CLEVELAND, OHIO, SATURDAY. SEPTEMBER 30, 1922
(Special to The Gazette)
Springfield: O. After wafting three weeks, for Supt. McCord to carry out his bold and defiant threat to have the truant officer force our children of the Fulton School district into his illegal "jim crow" school, the Civil Rights Protective League, sat Saturday afternoon, entered suit for an injunction against the continuance of the school. In taking this step the League has ended the deadlock that has prevailed. Encouraged by the success of the last week, when the attendance was reduced to eleven pupils, the picketing was resumed with increased vigor, this week, especially since McCord, in a desperate attempt to break the resistance of the league, has had his business manager, Deane, circulating among the parents telling them that they might as well send their children to school as it did not make any difference now as the suit was filed. Not only in this but in other contemptible tricks are these "jim crowers" showing that they are being beaten at their own game. Never before have our people shown such tenacity in a passive form of resistance. The number of pickets is being increased daily and their determination is growing stronger.
dard's corps of servile Negro touchers who daily appear at the school. These deluded victims of a "jim crow" environment seem to be totally oblivious to the unviable position they occupy of being willing tools in this attempt to nullify the law and rob our people of this city of the mixed school advantages gained by hard-won victories of the forefathers. Not only have they been servile and ready to assist in any of the devices being employed to break the opposition, but by various acts and remarks show their hostility to the Women-pickets who are making great sacrifices to prevent the degrading "jim crow" school system from being established. Apparently not conscious of their self abasement, in accepting the conditions of their employment, they have been accused of prompting their few scholars to make insulting and impertinent remarks to our pickets.
"Jim Crow" School Propagandists Please Note!
As an example of their subservience, an attempt was made, last week, to entrap Chas. L. Johnson, president of the Civil Rights Protective League, by enticing him to the home of one of the teachers on a plea for a conference. This was foiled by Mr. Johnson's forgetting the appointment. Later, it was reported that three policemen were concealed in the house, that an outcry was to have been made, and Mr. Johnson arrested on a charge of assault which the police were to make. Having decided to make the plunge into politics the League, last week, sent the following to all Republican candidates, except Judge F W Gelger, who is expected to pass on their application for an instruction.
Questionnaire.
(Kindly cross out the yes or no to the following questions.)
1. Do you believe in separate schools? Yes. No.
2. Do you belong to the Klu Kliy Klan? Yes. No.
3. Do you endorse the School Board's action in attempting to establish "jim crow" schools in Springfield over our protest? Yes. No.
4. Do you consider the Negro vote worth anything to you in the coming election? Yes. No.
As forecasted in our last week's letter, the local emancipation celebration was called off. The two chief promoters, Revs. T. D. Scott and E. W. B. Curry, being so much in distrust by reason of their alleged attitude in favor of separate or "gim crow" schools, it was thought best not to risk the celebration in the face of a boycott which would, certainly have occurred. It is also reported that Curry's engagement to speak at an emancipation celebration in Columbus last week was cancelled for the same reason. However, the day did not have without some recognition.
here. The picket headquarters ever on the alert, having heard that Fulton school teachers and the School Board intended to treat the few pupils of their "jim crow" school to ice cream and cake on that day planned a counter celebration which was held on the large lawn of Mrs. Robt. Walker, a square from the school-house. Twenty gallons of ice cream were served free to the children. About 500 people attended and had a very enjoyable time with games, races and swings. Only 11 pupils attended Fulton "jim crow" school, that day. Though not able to secure an out-of-town speaker, the regular Friday night meeting saw the church crowded with a throng of interested citizens who were eager to show their interest. Speech were made by Pres. Johnson ar. Daniels of the League, Rev. J. Driver, Rev. Broughton, pastor of Mt. Zion church, Dr. Thos. W. Barton And Dr. S. S. Jordan, who is said to be a convert to the principles of the League. All advised the people to stand firmly together in opposition to the infamous "jim crow" school proposition. A collection of $103.50 was taken
Another Great Mass Meeting.
Another Great Mass Meeting. Following the filling of the petition for an injunction, Saturday in common Plea, brought by Judge Sammer, ex-member of the Ohio Supreme court, Attys. Daniels and Jaynes, a mass meeting was held at S. P. M., Sunday, in Memorial Hall about 1,200 people gathered to hear R. B. Bareus, Esq., of Columbus, an assistant in the office of the State Attorney General, deliver a stirring denunciation of the "separate on "jim crow" school idea. He began his address, by denouncing, the Sup't. of Schools and the Board of Education for attempting to impose their own preference in defiance of the constitution and the law of the state. Here as elsewhere, the speaker declared such would never have been attempted if the Sup't. and Board had not had some encouragement from "jim crow" Negroes. Segregation in public-supported institutions is not only a violation of the principle of democracy but places a badge of inferiority on the segregated, the speaker citing as examples the vicious and criminal who are segregated in prisons and the feeble minded and insane who are segregated in various institutions. And for the state to segregate any class of its citizens would be to place the stamp of unfitness upon that class. Pointing out the danger of accepting here in the North the perishable principle of segregation, he declared that "jim crow" schools would eventually be followed by "jim crow" parks, playgrounds, street and railway cars, etc., like in the South. Calling attention to the efforts of the Klu Klux Klan to get lawyers, judges and legislators in to their miserable organization, he declared that he was glad to say that there were thousands of high-minded white men who would never join that notorious and infamous organization. Referring to the fact that some of our people from the South are said to favor separate schools, the audience was told that the mass of them came North for better conditions than they had at home, but if any wanted separate schools they ought to return South, and not try to establish such harmful and backward southern conditions here in Ohio. As to our teachers, the records of colleges show that under the same conditions they can become just as able as any other people and that the thing for the people to do is to contend that they be employed in mixed schools. Finally, as to those who favor separate schools, he advised that no violence be done them but that a grave be dug as deep as possible and they be pushed in and covered up, face down, and over the gravel, a monument be placed with the inscription announcing that there will be no resurrection. Atty. Daniels spoke of the necessity of continuing the pledging and asked for volunteers to relieve those who have been on constant duty for three weeks. Attention was called particularly to the effectiveness of the women in this kind of work. Atty Sully Jaymes pledged the assistance of the N. A. A. C. P. in the fight. As an indication of the effectiveness of the League's campaign to date, there is a very noticeable "climbing on the bandwagon" these days, and a consequent vacating of the top of a cer-

An Hitterate Ohio Penitentiary Prisoner Master the Classies.
COLUMBUS O. Seven years of a lifetime imprisonment in the "pen" have changed Roy White of Columbus from a shifter, illiterate irresponsible person to a man of high scholastic attainments, a splendid teacher and lecturer, and on authority on literature, prison officials reported to the Governor last week, in recommending him for pardon Sept. 22. White's "miracle" prison officials say, They assert that at it was the "most remarkable and startling instance of transformation of character" in all their experience. His only schooling was that received at the prison. White was 27 when admitted to the prison. He was conceived of first degree murder, with elementy to killing his wife.

tain force some persons of color have been roosting on ever since the fight began. A collection of $122 for the League was taken at this meeting. The petition for the injunction resides, among other things, that during the school year of 1820-21, the enrollment at Fulton school was about 500, of which 200 were colored and 200 white, while for the present school year the enrollment would be about the same but for the fact that the board is "unlawfully attempting to establish and maintain a school exclusively for colored children." in consequence of which not more than 11 colored children and no white children are in attendance. The following is, self explanatory:
Editor, Gugette, Dear Friend: Quite a number of our people are not aware of the fact that it was Mrs. (Rev.) John Collins, Mrs. Forest Speaks and Mrs. Jane Lee, the latter's daughter one of the teachers in "jim crow", Fulton school, that circulated the petition asking for the school, and that Mr. Forest Speaks, grand secretary of the G. I. O. of O. F. of Ohio, presented it to the School Board.
Personal Mention, Etc.
Mr. and Mrs. James Logan of this city (Springfield) spent the week-end in Tiffin with relatives.—Several persons from neighboring towns attended the League's mass meeting, Sunday.—Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Logan motored to Indianapolis, Sunday.—Mrs. Mollie Quisenberry died after a long illness, Sept. 24.—Second Baptist church rally brought the Improvement Fund up to $441; collection $169. The choir rendered a musical program in the evening.—The Culture Assembly, Congenial and Friday. Afternoon Embroidery clubs showed their interest in the fight against "jim crow" schools by donations to the League's fund.—Mrs. Maggie Burns, Mrs. Mildred Williams and Mrs. R. L. Diskerson were delegates from the H. & M. S. to the district conference in Columbus.—Full town school attendance has been cut from 512 to 11 on Sept. 22. Of the 512, over 300 were Afro-American pupils. The nearly 900 white children were transferred to other schools by Sapi M. McCord. Some of them have to walk about a mile to school, crossing two railroad tracks. This will take care of itself as soon as snow, cold weather with sleet and rain comes and help our fight.

Siki Whips Carpentier! Frenchman Tries To Win On A Foul
Referee First Gives Him Decision; But is Overruled by Three Official Judges The End Comes in the Sixth Round of a Hot Fight.
Sir John Browne, the first British soldier to have made a successful mission in the Middle East, was killed in action on their shoulder in the Syrian war. The retreating Harry Browne of that regiment that Sikh had been discharged for treason had been throng which saw the war not end and the British army had been beaten repeatedly. A better result was achieved in the light, Victor Brower, Joan Pye, Flonchmong and Mr. Bennison of London went into exile. An hour later they declared Sikh the winner. Their victory was recorded with a victory over the British soldiers who had remained in the arena for a man of them, in an unlikely carpenter had been
in the dressing room. The deputy Carpenter was entirely uninterested. Carpenter was the favorite when the men entered the ring and the crowd was damnified when they saw the idle pummed all over the ring and subjected to terrific punishment. Carpenter tried every trick of his ring knowledge to stave off defeat. Twice he was warned for battling during the fifth round. It seemed evident that he was anxious to be disciplined by the referee rather than to suffer the imminence of a knee hurt. When his offence became apparent the crowd, which previously had been "pulling" for him jetted and hooted, and cheered siki a French subject. When the song sounded at the opening moment of the light Siki appeared timid. He covered up it was thought in fear of Georges' terrible right. The Seki gave however, was his own self after having received four rights to the jaw, which failed to make the slightest impression on him. Carpenter's face took on a puzzled look as Siki blocked his blows and camlocked for more. So confident was Carpenter of ultimate victory, however, that he was smiling as he went to his corner when the gong ended the first round "I'll get him whenever I want to," he said to François bescomes, his manager and trainer. The crowd evidently was of the same opinion as Carpenter for justly cheered Georges. The Seki gave not having handed a solid blow up to that time. Georges is letting him stay for the moving picture, was an expression heard from various spectators. The big Seki gave evidently was considered a kind of "sacred offering to the prowess of Carpenter for the edification of the boxing enthusiasts. The French champion appeared thin. His completion was sallow and his face, but he had stripped apparently in good condition for the fray. Among the great multitude in the new Buffalo stadium it would not be wetting a guess to say there were comparatively few who believed the Seki gave would be returned the winner. Georges' weight was announced as 173.1 pounds. Siki stripped a beautiful picture of health and condition at 174 pounds. His skin was like chloe as compared with the white chloe of the French man. Carpenter smiled in his usual debonair style as the high robe of the black man fell from his shoulders. In the first round Siki skipped out of his corner and met Carpenter before the Frenchman was fairly off his chaly Carpenter, however, caught him with two straight rights. Siki covered up, and then went down to one knee from a light left. A natural pose. The referee ordered him up Carpenter, then swung two hard rights to the jaw. Siki took them merely shaking his head and bared in. Carpenter's face wore a puzzled expression although plainly he was holding back. Siki did not look clean blow in the second round Carpenter, with a look or do or dribble in his face repeatedly jabbed Siki with his left wrist. Then as Siki was waking up the terrible red swing in Carpenter's back, expecting Siki to drop under the blow. Siki however appeared rushed in and shot two short shots.

Editor Wm. Warley, of the Louisville (Ky.) News, announced in a recent issue of his paper that he had addressed a meeting, in that city on a Monday night previous, that had just been entertained by another speaker, a "Dr. Harris of Cleveland," who spoke in the interest of "the Garvey movement." Was "Dr. Harris" from Cleveland, Penn. "Brother" Warley?
Editor Geo. W. Harris, of the N. Y. News, is warning his readers not to pay any money to or do any business for his paper with one "Prof. S. Williams." That name sounds familiar, "Brother" Harris. What is the first name of the gentleman and from whence does he hall? We may have some information for you.

After reading the returns, some of the Democratic editors assert that in reality there is no significance in the Maine election. But if it had gone Democratic, or if the normal Republican lead had been reduced, they would be talking differently. Since the average lead of 54 per cent has been increased to 58 per cent, they think the vote of no significance.

Philadelphia, Boston, and other northern cities, outside of Ohio, are also having trouble as a result of efforts to inaugurate the "jim crow" school system. Our people everywhere must be watchful and aggressively active if they would stamp out this latest attempt of prejudiced whites of the North to segregate our school children. In nearly every instance southerners, black and white, are the prime-movers.
President Marcus Garvey (of Jamaica, British West Indies) says Prof. Wm. Pickens, a secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., begged him for a job in the U. N. I. A. The latter says he did nothing of the kind and adds that the publication of their correspondence, relative to the matter of the job, will tell "Who is the Liar." Possibly. Garvey has published some of Pickens' letters and the latter is publishing some of Garvey's. And still there is some doubt as to "who is the liar." We patiently await additional publications before reaching a conclusion.
LEADERS. NOT OXEN.
The statement of a Democratic writer that the Republicans repudiated the idea that the United States should aspire to the moral leadership of the world, is untrue. The Republicans repudiated the idea
that the United States should become the burden bearer, that it should meddle in purely European problems, that it should become the paymaster and military force of the world. For more than a century and a quarter, we have been the moral leaders. More than that, we have rendered practical help to every nation in any reasonable way in any time of need. But we are not surrendering our right to determine for ourselves what help we shall render and when and how we shall render it.

IMMORAL CESSPOOLS!
One hundred and five men charged with "crap shooting" on Woodland Ave. and Central Ave. sidewalks were discharged in police court, Monday, after being given a lecture and warned that second offenses would be more harshly dealt with. Police records, Saturday, showed the largest number of arrests in the week-end clean-up recorded this year. A total of 183 persons were picked up on charges of gambling, disorderly conduct, dope-selling and liquor law violation. Most of the arrests were made on Central, Scovill and Woodland Aves., in wards 11 and 12. And there were those, last fall, who affected to become indignant as a result of the statements the editor of The Gazette made during the campaign as to the fearful conditions existing in ward 11 when they were infinitely worse than they are now. Not only gambling but immoral conditions that threatened the very life of that part of the community, causing the ruining of many young girls particularly, and boys, breaking up families, etc., etc. They are bad, very bad yet. We are hoping that Mayor Kohler will do as he promised—clean thoroly wards 11 and 12, still among the very worst in the city.
AS TO DISLOYAL GRAFTERS.
For the benefit of our confreres of the Norfolk (Va.) Journal & Guide and the N. Y. Age, we wish to say that the forty Negroes who were employed by two white gubernatorial candidates, during the recent state primary campaign in Ohio, to travel thru the state in the interest of their candidates and against that of our own candidate were not "poor as Job's turkey." They were undoubtedly both "mercenary and disloyal" but no one of them was "poor as Job's turkey" nor were they of the kind that need money as badly as that would indicate. Furthermore, "as a whole and as a group we are (NOT) just like the other races and groups." Members of no other race or group could have been "purchased" in such numbers to make any such miserable canvass and showing in a contest of that kind, and our confreres know it. No other race or group would have permitted it, either, and Ohio Afro-Americans will not, again. That was made clear before the recent primary campaign closed. To apparently condone such "mercenary and disloyal" action, even if political, with what seems to be a plea in extenuation is unfortunate and a mistake which neither of our esteemed contemporaries should be guilty of making. It is far from being a "philosophical view to take of the situation, politically or otherwise."

ARTICLE 18 VIOLATED
The Berlin newspapers have published the text of a military covenant alleged to have been signed by the premiers of Poland and the little entente at a secret conference held at Marlenbad, August 31, according to cable despatches. Poland is a member of the league of nations. Article 18 of the league covenant provides that "every treaty of international engagement entered into hereafter by any member of the league shall forthwith be registered with the secretariat and shall as soon as possible be published by it." The treaty entered into by Poland with Czechoslovakia, Rumania, and Serbia is in the nature of an offensive and defensive alliance. "It was mutually agreed that the text of the military pact should not be published," says the report of the affair, Czechoslovakia, Rumania, and Serbia are also members of the league of nations, and are equally chargeable with violation of Article 18. This is not the first time that Article 18 has been flouted by mbers of the league. In flouted by members of the league. In the breach than in the observance. And it is part and parcel of that sacrosanct document which Ex-Pres. Thomas W. Wilson and Ex-Gov. James M. Cox assure us is to bring enduring peace to the world and which the United States broke faith by refusing to sign.
"The outbreak of political disorders in Southeastern Europe has served to confirm the masses of the people in their belief in the wisdom of the Republican foreign policies" declares the political writer
THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SEPTEMBER 30, 1922
of a Washington paper, after a survey of the middle west. "It is certain that no agitation favorable to the entrance of this country into the league of nations would strike a responsive chord in the Mississippi valley today."
That feeling is by no means confined to the Middle West, but is as general at this moment—probably more so—than it was when the votes were cast in November, 1920. However, Mr. Cox is still in favor of "going in" and until Mr. Cox is superseded as leader he may be accepted as the spokesman for his party. "The mantle of Wilson has fallen on him." declare the British pro-leaguers.

GLOBE THEATER TRIUMPH!
A Wonderful Opening—Splendid Entertainment—A Great Crowd In Attendance.
The Globe Theater opening, Monday evening, was all, and more than promised by the management. The house was packed to the doors, with a great crowd on the outside waiting as late as 9:25 p. m. to get in. The vaudeville entertainment was such as kept the large audience applauding continually, giving encore after encore, until it was found impossible to show the feature photo-play, Vivian Martin, in, "The Voice in the Dark." The acts of the Boykin's Dixie Co., "Queen Dora." (The Butterfly Girl), and Chas. Anderson were away above the average, simply delighting all fortune enough to get into the theater. M. B. Horwitz and the rest of the management, including Manager Bob Davis, were kept on the jump, handling the large crowds. For a first night, everything moved on smoothly and with wonderful precision. The future of the Globe Theater, under its present management, with vaudeville and feature photo-play attractions, such as "Shuffle Along." The Smart Set. Strutt Miss Lizzle." "Mamie Smith." "Plantation Review" and other Afro-American attractions is very bright. Indeed. A long-felt want of our people of this community has been met at the Globe. If you have not visited the theater do not fail to do so, this week, and get an evening's entertainment such as you have never had in any theater in this city.

New York City — Tex Rickard has added his name to the list of promoters angling to match Ski with American opponents, after receiving a cablegram from the Senegalese boxer's manager expressing eagerness to fight here, especially against light heavyweights. The message, however, conflicted with the date mentioned in reply to O'Rourke's offer by expressing readiness to come to this country after Jan. 1. Rickard cabled an answer declaring he was ready to match Ski with Greb, Gene Tunney, former lightweight titleholder, of Tom Gibbons, but made no definite proposition.

New York, Sept. 26 — The first mixed bout in New York city since the bout in New York governed boxing this state several years ago, was held tonight when Irish John Curtin, Jersey City, N. J., bantamweight, received the judges' decision after a twelve-round contest with Danny Edwards, Afro-American pugilist of Seattle, Wash.
Ring followers attached importance to the bout as marking the end of what was regarded as an unofficial ban by the state athletic commission on mixed contests and

CADIZ. — Mrs. Mary Williams, who died at Mrs. Ella White's, was buried, Saturday, Rev. W. H. Lucas officiating, assisted by Rev. Williams of Steubenville. Among those in attendance upon the funeral services from out of town were: A. E. Kent of Steubenville, Mesdames Daynes and Scott of Pittsburgh, Miss Laura White of Wilberforce and Mrs. Ella Parker of Carnegie, Pa.—Mrs. Rose Keaton and husband are guests of Mr. and Mrs. Austin Wallace. — Mrs. Maud Cooper, who visited Alonzo Howard, has returned to Zanesville. — Mr. and Mrs. Matthews of Steubenville are visiting Mrs. Maggie Williams. — Miss Katherine Johnson has gone to Ohio State university.
SHARLINE HEIGHTS—This village is located north of East Youngstown and southheast of Youngstown, six miles in the country. It has a small grocery and post-office together, street-car service every thirty minutes from Youngstown, but no lights at night. Everyone is well protected in his home, however. There are 400 white and nearly 350 Afro-American families living here. Most of us own or are buying our homes. Amen! for that. Mr. Smith, you got nearly 500 votes for Governor on Aug. 8, '22, in this little village. Some one here ought to handle each week, enough Gazettes to supply our 350 families, at least. Who will act? We have two Baptist churches, and one A. M. E. mission. One church is really enough.
HILLSBORO—Mrs. Mabel Jamison of Columbus is visiting her parents. Rev. J. Stevenson of that city preached at the W. M. church, Sunday, "The Tell-The Reliable" Gazette in their homes and provide it to them.

Marcus Garvey is not merely a dreamer. He is a troublemaker. One of the Negro leaders who spoke against him, yesterday, was J. W. H. Easton, who declared that Afro-Americans have plenty of problems of their own and that they should concentrate on them, rather than spend their time trying to remake Africa or stirring up strife between countries—Brooklyn (N.

pointed out that it was an entering wedge for the proposed heavyweight title match between Harry Wills, challenger, and Jack Dempsey, champion.
Ready to Fight Dempsey
Ready to Fight Dempsey.
Paris, France.—The boxing federation has declared Battling Siki the light heavyweight champion of the world and heavyweight champion of France. It announced that it intended sending to the American boxing authorities a regular challenge for him to meet all comers.
At the end of the bout with Carpenter, Siki was remarkably fresh and bore no signs of the encounter.
Sikl fought a clean and fair battle. This the moving pictures show, beyond all question or doubt. He had the crowd with him in the last two rounds, especially after he had lifted Carpentier from the floor when the Frenchman was virtually helpless in the fifth round. As he placed Carpentier on his feet the Frenchman swung blindly a wicked left to Sikl's jaw. This caused the crowd to hoot and jeer Georges. Sikl is so popular that when he lunched in a downtown restaurant today, a hero-worshipping crowd gathered outside and blocked traffic. Sikl had to go to a second story window accompanied by his wife, who is white (French), to bow his acknowledgment to his admirers.
Sikj Has Won Every Fight.
NEW YORK CITY—In all of his ring engagements in France, Siki has been successful. But in none place did he display any terrific punching power. He knocked out Harry Reeve, a former light heavyweight champion of England, in the sixth round and received the decision over Marcel Niles in fifteen rounds. After the latter bout, Carpenter's manager, Francois Descamps, who is credited as being a shrewd judge of fighting ability, asserted that Siki was such a poor fighter that he would not permit of Carpenter meeting him. Siki also outpointed Paul Journee, the lumbering French heavyweight who visited the United States and helped to train Carpenter for his fight with Dempsey. Siki comes from Senegal, a French colonial dependency, in western equatorial Africa. He and the country are plainly "Moors," and allied Berber races and Negroid. The latter however, form the greater portion of the population.

"HUMAN NATURE'S
FOULEST BLOT."
My ear is pained
My soul is sick with every day's
report
Of wrong and outrage, with
which the earth is filled.
There is no flesh in man's ob-
durate heart.
It does not feel for man: the
natural bond
Of broken bond is severed as
the flax.
That falls asunder at the touch
of fire.
He finds his fellow guilty of a
skin
Not colored like his own: and
having power
To enforce the wrong, for such
a worthy cause
Dooms and devotes him as his
lawful prey.
Thus man devotes his brother,
and destroys:
Tis human nature's broadest
foulest blot.

GIVES FACTS ON HEREDITY SUBJECT
should Present Collected Instances of Peculiarities
When writers on eugenics present to us collected instances of mental or physical peculiarities found in parent and child, and ask us to accept these in proof that they were bequeathed and inherited, they are illogical. They ought at the same time to present collected instances of peculiarities that are not found in parent and child, and that consequently are not bequeathed or inherited. Only from such complete evidence is it permissible to draw conclusions.
In an article in the Medical Record in "The Fallacy of Eugenics," Dr. A. L. Sweet of Geneva, N. Y., calls attention to some facts that cannot be accounted for by heredity. Where, for instance, did Shakespeare inherit his genius, or Robert Burns, or Thomas Carlyle, or Abraham Lincoln?
"One would expect," he writes, "that from the union of the Brown itgs something almost superhuman would emerge but nothing of the mind happened. Of course, every child born into the world has, in the direct line of his ancestors, virtuous and virtuous antecedents. What shall deter mine his character? To my mind one of the saddest things about this whose subject of heredity is that however virtuous and intelligent the late-married parents may be their offspring may show all the diabolical instincts of some faraway vicious ancestor."
Dr. Sweet ridicules the old argument based on the vicious descendants of the dissolute Max Jukes and the virtuous descendants of the pious Jonathan Edwards by asking what chances did any member of the Jukes family ever have to attain to a virtuous life, reared as they all were in an atmosphere of depravity, and was it likely that the members of the Edwards family, reared, as they were in an atmosphere of Christian courtesy and piety, with parents ever setting before them an example of all the human virtues, should grow up bad?
"The only way to improve the breed t babies," according to Dr. Sweet "is to improve the fathers and mothers. The mothers," he says, "are pretty good now, and always have been, and that has been the salvation at the race. Of course let us haveathers as good as we can, but it is vital that we have good mothers. We may philosophize as much as we like, but the fact remains that the good or will destiny of the nation will depend upon the character of the mothers." And he quotes Dr. Maud Glasgow en the tendencies of the day, princl-
THE NEW J. A. SHORTER HALL, WILERFORCE UNIVERSITY
Old Shorter Hall, the home and birth-place of all our traditions and aspirations was built in 1865; burned December 7, 1921.
New Shorter Hall will house 26 class room, administration offices, rooming for 444 girls, auditorium seating capacity of 2,000 persons and fire-proofed from bottom to top. Cost $300,000.00. RT, REV. J. H. JONES, President of the Trustee Board.

in session at Wilberforce. I was asked to hire an architect and prepare plans for rebuilding, and to have general charge of the processes of re-construction. Everything was ready by the latter part of April, at which time, the executive board met again, approved the plans, and voted the contract to D. W. McGrath & Sons of Columbus. Ohio for re-construction, at a primary cost of $271,600. The changes in extras in the building will run the cost to $300,000. It is to be a fireproof building, built of brick, stone, concrete, steel and iron, including the cellar and roof. The extreme length is 213 1-2 feet, extreme* width 165 1-2 feet, height 5 stories, building contains offices for the University executives, 26 classes for college students, including commodious music and science department for the hall, seating capacity 1,000, auditorium, seating capacity 2,500, dormitory rooms for 450 girls. Strictly modern and sanitary. It will be the finest, most expensive, and commodious college building, built by or for Negroes in the world. The building is to be finished by the first day of next June. In it, we expect to hold our next commencement.
To finance this great enterprise is
pally the wholesale employment of women, which are unfitting women for motherhood and which the calls "an unmitigated evil" a lamentable waste of women "distinctly against the interests of the race."
Experts at command of U. S. Will Try to Restore Sight of Little Eskimo New York's best surgeons will endeavor to restore the sight of Melba, a 7 year old Eskimo girl, who was found deserted in an igloo by Dr. L. H. French, United States Government physician in Alaska. The cornea of a rabbit will be grafted upon one affected eye and a catact removed from the other. In charge of Mrs. Corinne Call, a government teacher, the child arrives in Portland, Oregon, this week Mrs. Call says the Eskimos left Melba in the ice hut, hoping she would die. She had been totally blind for five years. The trouble is diagnosed as an eruption of the cornea.
NEW METHOD OF DISSECTING
Students to Be Supplied With Transparent Cadavers
A new method of giving students instructions in surgery without the necessity of actually dissecting a cadaver will be put into practice at the Hahnemann Medical College of Philadelphia when the fall term opens.
Physicians and surgeons connected with the institution recently perfected a method, originated thru the discovery of a noted French scientist, wherby a fluid can be injected into a corpse and render it transparent. This fluid is composed of several oils, which, when injected, render the flesh a jellylike transparency, enabling students to study the veins, muscles and bones at their leisure.
It is considered one of the most important discoveries in recent medical science.

I make a melancholy roar.
And call on the police to look
And seek my losses to restore.
I might be unhappy.
For being such a careless elf.
A precious moment, I've been taught
In language more or less sublime,
To guard against all loss of time.
I count in melancholy fear

And yet I hear of vessels great
Which somehow wander off the map,
Though well equipped to navigate—
How trifling seems my own mishap!

the biggest burden, all things considered, that has fallen to our race. We have now been building daily for three months, at a cost of $20,000 per month, all labor and material to this time paid for. The building is now above first story and pressing hard in the second floor.
Bishops Coppin, Connor and Heard are my immediate associates in this great task. I have every reason to believe that they will give the largest possible co-operation and sympathetic encouragement. About $50,000 of the money in hand has been raised by the little Third Episcopal District, and we are neither daunted nor tired. We need the aid of the whole connection and need it immediately. The trustees of Wilberforce University cover the whole church, and therefore the whole connection constitutes the controlling body. Control and responsibility are correlatives both morally and economically, and the exercise of the one, predicates the exercise of the other. The responsibility of control, while neglecting the responsibility to support, is to be scorned by every manly man. Control without responsibility cancels the right of control. By inexorable law, the whole church must help rebuild Wilberforce. Will you
AUTO GETS MULE'S
JOB IN THE ARMY
JOB IN THE ARMY
Fewer Men Required to Handle Equipment and Machine Is Not as
Stubborn as Animal.
As the automobile deprived the horse of a job, so it is taking the place of the Army mule. The machine gun companies of the regiments in the Rio Grande Valley are to be "mounted on autos," thereby eliminating what bitherto has been an immense amount of trouble.
Lewis machine guns are being supplied as rapidly as possible to the National Guard companies on the Mexican border. This type of weapon is now being used almost entirely by the British army and is regarded as superior to many now in use abroad and at home. It minimizes the possibility of "jamming," the most obvious fault with the present patterns of rapid fire guns.
Capt. Charles McCoy, adjutant of the Brownville district and one of the ablest officers in the Rio Grande valley, explained the reason for the change from mule to light auto cars.
"The mule, while indispensable to any army in certain phases or its life, is not so satisfactory in machine-guilt transportation," he said. "A man has to be designated to guide it, others have to be watching it constantly, and should it take a notion to become stubborn, a column is bound to be thrown into disorder. With a light car this difficulty is overcome. Also fewer men are required to handle the ammunition and paraphernalia for each gun."
REMOVES DENTS IN FURNITURE
Very Simple Task as it is Here Explained
When wood is badly dented or scratched it is often a problem to know how to get rid of the marks. This is quite easy if the following plan is adopted, says the Scientific American:
First of all fold a piece of blotting paper at least four times; then saturate with water, finally allowing the superfluous moisture to drip away. Now heat a flatiron until it is about the warmth required for laundry work. Place the damp blotting paper over the dent and press firmly with the iron. As soon as the paper dries examine the mark. It will then be found that the cavity has filled up to a surprising extent.
Where the dent is very deep a second or even a third application on the lines indicated might be tried. Sooner or later every serious depression can be drawn up—and most people who have not tried this plan will be surprised at the result of the treatment. Polishing will clear away even the slight marks that might finally remain.
TRAVELING SLAUGHTER HOUSE

do it? Will you repudiate a duty? We, therefore, beg all Bishops, General Officers, Ministers, and Laymen to send in their contributions at once, so that the work on new Shorter Hall may not stop nor languish. We beg that you not wait, nor delay in making your personal sacrifice in helping us to prosecute this work to completion.
The furnishings of this building require $100,000 in addition to the cost of the building. We are, therefore, asking the church to roll up a collection of a half million dollars for the placing of dear old Wilberforce at the head of the column, in the Educational March of the Negro Race. We believe that all lovers of Negro Education regardless of creed or denomination, will help us in this enterprise. Hence, we are begging and expecting immediate response. SEND US FIVE DOLLARS, TEN DOLLARS, TWENTY DOLLARS, FIFTY DOLLARS, ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS, FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS, ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS, or such amount as you have ability to contribute. Most respectfully your greetment. J. H. JONES (Bishop) Chairman Trustee Board, Wilberforce University, Wilberforce, Ohio. Evergreen Cottage, Sept., 1922.

The killing outfit is arraced upon a motor truck supplied with a derrick and, every needed appliance for killing and handling large animals, including tanks for hot water for dressing hogs and a large can for the otal or unusable portions, that are conveyed back to his plant in town without trouble to his customers.
This outfit enables him to take orders for doing the farm butching in his neighborhood directly upon the premises of the farmers and at the same time to protect them from all its plausantness. He either performs the work of killing for the family hard or purchases the dressed carcasses for his own business.
Owing to the efficiency of his system this butcher recently made a record in going out to a farm five miles from his shop, killing and dressing two calves and returning to his shop with their property dressed carcasses within twenty eight minutes.
LIFE OF SARATOGA SPRINGS
Sparkling Waters Due to Buried Gas Says Physician At a meeting of the Medical society of the state of New York, Dr. Albert Warren Ferris of Saratoga described the 140 or more mineral springs that have made his town famous, and told how they were formed.
Gases let loose ages ago by volcanic eruptions in these regions are still imprisoned far down among the rocks. Water falling on the surface of the earth percolates thru the shales and slates, making its way among the crevices in the rocks and absorbs these gases. There are large deposits of potassium, iron, lithium, strontium, barium, calcium and other chemicals in the rocks, and the gas-charged water, coming in contact with these, absorbs them. The gas makes the water tighter than usual, and the pressure is so great that the water is forced to the surface as springs, the character of which depends upon what mines the water has been in contact with. The water in most of the springs rises from a depth of between 300 and 800 feet, but one comes from 1,000 feet below the surface.

Judicial Tangle.
Police of Hongkong were placed in a quandary in connection with a theft case by the laying of an egg by a ben. It was stated that the hen was stolen, together with a basket, and that for the purpose of the court case the hen was marked "Exhibit A" and the basket "Exhibit B." Overnight the ben laid an egg and the police officer in charge of the case was puzzled whether the thief should also be charged with stealing the egg. The magistrate ordered that the egg be marked "Exhibit A, 1," but that it be not included in the theft charge.
PAT IS MIGRATORY;
EXPERIMENT PROVES
That rats are affected with the wanderlust and will cover miles of dangerous territory when they are put to the expedient of getting back to the locality they consider home, has been demonstrated in an interesting experiment made by the United States public health service, under the direction of Surgeon R. H. Creel. Dr. Creel, from his long experience in fighting rats as disease carriers, concluded that a rat captured and turned loose would do his best to find his way back to his old neighborhood, and to test the theory he ordered several local experiments. A big grandpa rat, gray as the proverbial badger, trapped in the freight shed of the Texas and Pacific Railroad at Westwego, was one of the selection for the experiments. He was taken to the laboratory in his cage and put to sleep with a little ether.
While he was in the oblivious state that Morpheus allows all creatures, the doctors clipped his, long ears with an ordinary office punch. They devoted care to the operation and with a series of punches succeeded in making a complete oval disfigurement in each aural organ.
When the rat woke up with a succession of coughs and sneezes, and with skinny paws rubbed his eyes, wondering "where he was at" he obtained a view of beautiful lakes and woodland reaches through the tiny bars of his cage. He was in City park, 'way back in the extreme end, behind the Greek temple facing the drood lagoon.
As part of Dr. Creel's experiment the rat's prison term was at an end and he was set at liberty. He couldn't understand it for a moment, but stood on his haunches at the open trap door blinking at the setting sun. Then he gathered his wats and bolted in a straight line for a clump of trees a hundred yards away. He disappeared in the shadows cast by the drooping branches and that was the end of him at least for a while.
Three weeks passed and the rat with the owl punches in his ears came to light a second time. He was grown in a trap, but it was one of those merciless guillotine affairs, and the rat lay dead under the heavy spine. He was the same rat that was set free in the City Park, and as the scene of his second capture and final elimination from rodent activities was in Dr. White's district close to the Stuyvesant docks, it was evident that the animal in the three weeks of liberty that bridged the time from his release to his death, must have traveled at least five miles. From the fact that he was close to the docks, Dr. Dr. White believes that he was seeking means to cross the river, to regain his old home at Westwego.
Some scientists have contended that a rat is not a migratory animal, but lives all his troublesome days within the radius of a city block. Dr Creel's experiment unsets this theory.

OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW
Upon the request of many readers, the Gazeette we print below the text of Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894:
The General Code of Ohio:
Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public con- cessation by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full entitlement of the ae- commodations, advantages, facilities, privilege thereof, shall be finet not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both.
Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the person aggrieved thereby to be recouped in the county where such offense was committed.
This law has repeatedly been held constitutional and good law by the OWL. But the important jurisdiction in the county where such offense was committed.

Judge Grant's Opinion of the Law.
Misled by the foolishly manufactured outcry for the passage of the Beaty bill, a few years ago, the Akron Beacon Journal published an editorial to which the editor of The Gazette replied, calling its attention to the fact that the Ohio Civil Rights law was amended. It did not need amending. The following letter from Judge Grant, former presiding judge of the Court of Appeals of the Eighth District of Ohio, is self explanatory: Akron, O., April 25, 1919. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor The Cleveland County, O.
Editor The Gazette Cleveland, O.
Mear Dear Sir: Observing your letter in the Beacon-Journal, of this city, venture to send you, under a separate cover, the Ohio Law Reporter of the Court of Appeals, the opinion of the Court of Appeals, for Lunch Co. vs. Leonard F. Forman, decided in Akron, last fall, in which a judgment for ($500) five hundred dollars was sustained. If the Beacon-Journal had known what was going on in its own town, there would have been no occasion for criticism, editorially.
THE LAW OF OHIO IS UNDER NO REPROACH, nor our courts and juries, in administering it. Not a word was said by the Beacon-Journal when the Forman case was reviewed.
We must learn to govern ourselves and work together for our own advancement. If we do not learn to govern ourselves and work together for our own advancement, we may be very sure that we will be governed by others in their own interest as well as worked by others for their own advancement and not ours.-George W. Blount.
I believe thoroughly, as everyone knows, in education—in all phases of education. I believe, as well, in all the learned and useful professions. But somehow, I feel that the Neeraj Roy the rest of mankind, must learn twice out more of his problems along business lines than he has in the past; he must learn as others have learned that a great deal of the so-called race problems can and must be worked out at six per cent. Dr. R. K. Moton.
