INERTIA IGNORANCE BERNARD INVESTIGATION PROVES THAT OFFICERS WERE NOT GUILTY OF GOWARDICE; TYLER'S STORY IS SUBSTANTIATED Washington, D. C., Nov. 27. —The Colored officers of the 368th Infantry, who were accused, tried and convicted for cowardice in the Messe-anne, have been exonerated—cleared of the charge of cowardice which rested not only upon the Colored officers, but also upon the 368th Infantry. This exoneration is contained in a report made to Secretary of War General John B. Stanton, staff which made the investigation.

S. NEGROES Washington, D. C., Nov. 27.—Voluntary migration of the Negroes of this country to the former oGerman colonies in Africa, where they would have been free from the threat of this country but would still remain under the American flag, is believed to be a possibility, and this country land, to be not only a possibility but a probability, if the United States will take these colonies. Mr. McKenna reserved a reservation to the peace treaty, under which the United States would take possession of the land of the German overseas possessions which, he says, is granted this country and opened up as lands of operation to the former German colonies developed under the tutelage of the United States and opened up as lands of operation to the German Negroes, made ambitions by education, but held down more or less in this country, would turn these African colonies as lands of operation to the German Negroes, there is no question that all of our Negroes would go there. I think they would desire to so there as fast as possible, Mr. McKenna says. He says, "How much consideration have some who will sign the application of the disposition of the German colonies." Mr. France continued, "The French Relations Committee, with the assistance of the report has reported favorably reservation (Continued on Pane 5)." "my mysterious, unauthorized order to withdraw." The investigators could not, according to their report, even learn the source of that "mysterious order." The inspector general's staff which made the investigation at the request of Secretary Baker even more difficult, officers and men that they had suffered the greatest discrimination—in the role of most any other unfounded. There was no Colored unit in the army, unless it was some of the labor battalions, that was the object of greater and more brutal discrimination. The arrest of the criminally convicted began at Camp Meade before theyailed for France. It was an oppressive, discurring, brutal officer, shilting infantry officer. It was over. It was present in every camp they occupied, and it sent to an untimely, bloody grave these Colored soldiers in that Meuse Argonne offensive. Readers of The Advocate may recall that the Air Correspondent Paul W. T. Weaver, who was in charge there should be an investigation—that these Colored officers should not have been penalized to them by court-martial even every man who went into that inferno had been called to PLANS FOR UPLIFT OF YOUNG PEOPLE (By Associated Negro Press) Baltimore, Md., Nov. 27—Plans for the uplift of the young people and for bringing them in closer touch with the church were discussed at the 13th Annual session of the Baltimore Conference branch of the Allen University.

Mayor Calls Meeting Of Negroes (By Associated Negro Press) Covington, Tenn. Nov. 27—A great many rumors have been going in Tipton County that the Negro is figuring on uprising. The rumors became so strong that Mayor J. J. Covington, a Democrat, said some of the more prominent Negroes, but all of them denied knowing anything of the rumors. One of the rumors was that the Colored people had been the thickest Colored settlements in the county, had secured guns and ammunition for the uprising, to begin October 17. The following statement to be issued by two of the leading Negroes of the county is: A PUBLIC DECLARATION OF To Whom it May Concern: This is to certify whereas it has been rumored that we, the Colored citizens of Rialto, are charged with AMERICAN LEGION DECIDES TO ALLOW STATE TO DECIDE IN NEGRO BRANCHES Minneapolis, Minn., Nov. 27.—The American Legion, an organization representing the veterans who fought in the great world war, slipped a cog in its wheel of progress when the eligibility Committee recommended that eligibility of members be left to the various states instead of to the National Committee. It is plain to be seen that this attitude which the "bar-up" against the thousands of Colored veterans throughout the South who were valiant in the service of the country during the war. This subject was one of the many questions before the American Legion and was left for final decision from the many questions before the American Legion and was left for final decision from the Springfield meeting during the summer. The National Committee, in the early Southern state, there has been a determination to refuse charters to Colored posts which of course, is in line with Southern policy, but out of harmony with the times and the true American spirit of the National Committee. Prior to the convention a number of delegates were in conference in Chicago with Capt. Lewis E. Johnson, formerly of the 370 Infantry and others. The men brought written statements from Southern states to the National Committee. The Legion was for Caucasians only. Very naturally, the Colored veterans throughout the country in conjunction with the thousand splendid white veterans are greatly indignant over the fact that the American Legion is over the subject and keen out of the American Legion, thousands or more who willingly left their homes and business and work, to so to France and flight for democracy, while thousands of the American Legion are indiscrepant means within and without, the law to keep them out of the service. The records bear out the fact that the Colored people of the south as well as in many other sections of the American Legion are more than their own, of service. This attitude will undoubtedly precipitate a fight to the finish by the judge, who will be determined that justice shall prevail. securing guns and ammunition with which to incite roiotrion.

CHURCH, THE NEW POWER IN 1920 POLITICS WILL PROBABLY BE POWER BEHIND THE THRONE IN REPUBLICAN AFFA'RS IN ILLINOIS (By Associated Negro Press) Chicago, Ill., Nov. 27—Robert R. Church, capitalist, business man, and a political leader has demonstrated beyond question his ability to cope with the challenges of his new role far as our group is concerned. Mr. Church is a political leader by adoption and by choice. He has studied politics and has been interested in every field of activity from committeeman to presidential nomination and election. He is retiring in disposition but uniring in effort. He is demonstrating more unselfishness in his political activities that might be picked from various parts of the country. As time goes on Mr. Church will undoubtedly be consulted very seriously by the leadership of the party and with reference to the presidential campaign of 1920.

Gordon, president of the National Women's Christian Temperance Union, yesterday addressed approximately 1000 delegates to the opening session of the national convention at Hotel Statler. The convention will last until Thursday night, and the remaining sessions will be held at the Odeon. The great movements before the convention are, according to Miss Gordon, world prohibition, health and morality, Americanization, and law enforcement. She said: "We have never failed to affirm the fact that for many years we have been in an educational campaign concerning the harmfulness of tobacco, especially among children and youth. This campaign we shall continue to push persistently. We have the support of the scientific temperance instruction laws, and with few exceptions the cordial sympathy and co-operation of educators. The propaganda of liquor associations and of the enormously wealthy tobacco proffeters must not swerve us from our determination to press our educational anti-cigarette and antitobacco campaign."

Forseeing world-wide prohibition of, Unior, Miss Gordon, said: "While it is difficult to define the status of Europe, Asia, Africa and other countries, it is with a thrill of joy that we note the great worldwide advance of prohibition sentiment and dare to prophecy world prohibition by 1925." "The liquor interests are having a hard time to obtain the assistance of reputable attorneys. When the liquor-men began casting about for a map to contest constitutional prohibition in the court they decided to look for some one of national prominence. They laid down on a table in front of Charles Evans Hughes a check for $150,000. This great jurist replied: 'I would not champion this cause before the courts for any sum of money.' "Failing to buy Mr. Hughes, they next went to William Howard Taft, and placed before him a signed check, telling him to fill it in for any amount he wanted. He replied: 'Gentlemen, you couldn't pile enough gold on this continent to induce me to take your case before the courts and before the public, for I will have your know my conscience is not for sale.'

Short-line railroads and freight railroads would also receive this warranty. Government five-year loans at 8% within twenty-six months after the end of federal control, and to carry out the provision $250,000,000 is made available. The government will provide for settlement of $775,000,000 the roads will owe the government at the end of this uniliquidated indebtedness would be in the amount of government Payment of the uniliquidated indebtedness would be in the amount of For settlement of labor troubles the bill would set up machinery in the federal control for employee and federal control for employee and uniformly conducting negotiations, with an added provision for a second, or third, form of the former fail.

NEGROES ASK INTERVENTION IN CASE OF SERGEAN EDGAR G. CALDWELL. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to Day made public a tellerram to Secretary of War, Newton D. Baker, asking for Intervention in the case of Sergeant Edgar G. Caldwell, who has been sentenced to death for the alleged murder of Keisle Morrison, a street car conductor, at Anniston, Ala., in December 35, 1918. The telegram reads: November 14, 1919. Hon. Newton D. Baker, Secretary of War, Washington, D.C. National Association for Advancement of Colored People respectfully urges that you exercise power at your command and intervene in the case of Sergeant Edgar G. Caldwell now under sentence of death for killing the street car conductor December 15, 1918. In the fiveth of the day, an annonism of view of the fact that Caldwell at the time was a soldier in Regular Army and was turned over to civil authorities and by them condemned to death we feel that because of his race it was impossible for him to secure fair trial in that State. Our further contention is that Caldwell should have been tried by regular Court Secretary since he was a soldier. Caldwell will see the case be changed December 4th and we therefore urge that intervention be made in his behalf immediately. JAMES WELLD JOHNSON. Field Secretary, National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York. GOVERNMENT WILL ISSUE QUOTATIONS ON COTTON AND COTTON SEED. Washington, D. C.

Austin, Texas, Nov. 27.—The Texas Public Health Association has announced the different purposes for which, the $200,000 to be raised in Texas during the Red Cross Christmas Seal Sale in December will be used. Ninety per cent of the money raised from the sale of the little seals of good health will remain in Texas," said D. E. Breed, Executive Secretary of the Association, "and the remained will go to the American Red Cross and the National Tuberculosis Association. The $180,000 remaining for health work in Texas, will be used by the Texas Public Health Association and its auxiliaries to provide nursing provision in counties, cities, and schools through public health nurses; to help secure more dispensary and clinic care, so that those who have tuberculosis or think they have it, may be examined and treated; to aid in securing more open air schools and preventotria for children—where babies and children up to 12 years of age may be given special treatment and kept from contagious disease; to bring health education to the people of the state, so that they may know how to prevent and cure disease." The Association will also send out field workers to carry on surveys and research work on health conditions, and with the assistance of Mexican and Negro workers, reach all races and classes of people in the state. It also will try to interest employers and employees in industrial examinations of workers in industrial trades. The Modern Health Crusade is being directed by the Association, which is to this way, leading the children of the state to form health habits which will remain with them permanently. “These are some of the important things which the Association will do in 1920,” said Mr. Breed. “They are necessary if we are to crush the ‘white plague’ which claimed a toll of 4,651 lives in Texas, last year. The Texas Public Health Association is at the service of the people of the Lone Star State and is fighting for better health for their entire state.” “Figures based upon the Framingham, Mass., survey show that there are nine open cases of tuberculosis in Texas, and almost 20 cases of all kinds from the disease, for every death from the white plague. This would tend to show since there were 4,685 reported deaths from this disease last year in Texas, that there are now 37,208 open cases, and approximately 93,000 cases of all kinds open, arrested or closed.” "HERE'S A NEW GERM TO PLAGUE US." Bacterium Tanarense, Name Given to Germ Causing Plague-Like Disease. An Important Discovery by Investigators of the U.S. Public Health Service. An investigation just completed by Surgeon Edwards Francis of the U.S. Public Health Service adds another to the list of disease germs afflicting mankind. The germ which bears the name of bacterium tularese, was first isolated by Drs. McCoy and Chapin, of the U.S. Public in a plaque-like disease of rodents. It was not then known that the same germ also infects man. Dr. Francis now finds that bacterium tularese is the cause of "deer-fly fever" a disease occurring among the rural population of Utah and initiated (according to popular belief), by a fly bite on some exposed surface of the body. The site Health Service, as the causative agent of the bite and the neighboring lymph glands become tender and inflamed, and they commonly suppress. A fever, like that in ordinary blood poisoning, develops that lasts for 3 to 6 weeks. The patient becomes very sick and is confined to bed. The first case known to have ended fatally was reported in 1919. Thus far something like two dozen cases of this disease have occurred in County, Utah, each in the years 1918, 1919, and 1920. Whether the disease prevails elsewhere is not yet known, but the announcement of the Public Health Service is expected to direct the at least 40 physicians to cases of this kind.

From five to forty years. The loans on the amortization plan of the government on the amortization plan of installment payments through a period of years, which payments are specified part of the principal, so that at the end of a stated period both the principal and the interest payments are made. From time to time there are inquiries as to whether the Negro farm loans are the Federal Farm Loans. Inquiries made of the several Federal Farm Loan Loans are made of the Negro farm loans are securing Federal Farm Loans. A recent report from the Negro farm loans New Orleans states that: "An interest sidewalk on the way the bank is meeting the needs of the South's Negro tenant farm loans is planned by the following incident. Nine Negro tenant farm loans are planned which they had been working, near Ita Bena, borrowing $51,000 from the Negro farm loans to make the deal. The Negroes possessed all the necessary equipment to begin operation at once. The Negroes are the only platinum in both this state and Mississippi which may be similarly diluted.

Still less did they anticipate that within a few hours they could be exchanged for insurance, insurance, and handed checks ranging from $43.87 to $88.44, covering insurance due from the dates of their return.

All of the men who held War Risk Insurance policies and who are entitled to payments of insurance for total ad permanent disability will receive "compensation" in addition to their insurance money, after discharge from the service. They would have received "compensation" automatically and regardless of whether they carried any War Risk Insurance, but they would not have received the insurance money if they had not carried insurance policies. When one carries a War Risk Insurance policy and becomes totally and permanently disabled through sickness or injury, he becomes eligible to receive monthly payments of insurance from the date of his disability and as long as he lives. He does not have to pay any more premiums. Every former service man or service woman who keeps up his or her government insurance will have this protection against possible total permanent disability, which may occur to anyone at any time from a variety of causes. When a member of the military or naval forces bought War Hisk insurance, the insurer would have to deal with the added proviso, without increase in premiums, that the insurance would mature and in the event that he became totally and permanently insured. Few people are entirely realize that the insurance is entirely separate from "compensation," the latter being provided irrespective of whether or not a man insured. NATIONAL THRIFT WEEK PLANNED. Keen interest on the part of the public in the projected plans for a National Thrift Week beginning Jan. 17, '20, has been evidenced in many ways already, the Savings Division of the Treasury Department announced today. The purpose of the week will be the endeavor to start the country off in the New Year with a sound financial program for every individual and Household. Two ends are sought. First, that the condition of the individual be improved, and second, that the financial and industrial strength of the nation be increased by the great sums of capital which will accrue through the practice of steady saving and safe investment on the part of citizens. "The importance of the country of the practice of thrift and saving by the individual is not readily appreciable," said William Mather Lewis, director of the savings division, "until its results in the aggregate are submed up. While the country was buyed twenty billion dollars worth of Liberty Bonds. It was put away more than a billion dollars in War Savings Stamps, and savings bank deposits in this country also have increased some eight billion dollars during the years the world has been at war. The "absorption of the Liberty Loans was more conducive to extension of the number of charges of Saving Stamps and increase in bank deposits were almost the same as the increase in the individual for increasing his own and the country's capital account in the country, and in the military spending. It was also the argument to the attention of the country that it can, without sacrificing its pleasures or curtailing its comforts, add several billion dollars to the country's budget in the year that plans for a National Thrift week early in the year have been planned.

(By Associated Negry Press) Philadelphia, Pa., Nov. 27—According to Prof. Wm. Pickens, Dean of Morgan College, Baltimore, it was in a southern town Roosevelt, President of the United States, there were people gathered about and at this particular juncture the president seemed to hold an impromptu reception for the children who crowded near him. A little Colored child was there—perhaps caught in the drift of the crowd or led on by the instinct to follow other children. The child was very ferrily. "These are my grandchildren," And as they came near he would take them up, give them some little token of his affection and set them down. At sight of this Colored child he came abansed and hesitated on the edge of the crowd, perhaps looking for chance to repeat. When the child was discovered the predicament of this child, he reached out his hand in that direction and said, 'You come too, you.' Nobody seemed to suppose that he was beckoning for the Colored child, and when by standers began to push out his child, he said, 'You little Colored child.' When the embarrassed little human being reached him he took it up, gave it the same token of affection and remarked simply, 'You are one of my little grandchildren, too.' He went on with his performance as a morning unusual had happened. As comment was heard—for this was Roosevelt "Colored people are invited among others to buy voluntarily membership of $1 or more to build a memorial to the great American." "CHI" BLUE BOOK ISSUED.

THE DALLAS EXPRESS has never hoisted the white feather, neither has it been disgraced by the yellow streak. It is not affiliated with the flannel mouth. It is a plain, every day, sensible, conservative newspaper, which trims no sail to catch the passing breezes; flies no doubtful flag. It professes a patriotism as broad as a country. its love of every handed justice, all the terroirs occupied by the human race. This is pretty high ground, but we live on it and are propreming. Boys of the press come up and stand with us. This ground is ours. W. E. KING. A PROTEST AGAINST THE CHARGE OF INFERTIORITY. The white and the black races have jointly occupied the American continent approximately the same proportion as physical environments are concerned the two races, except in cases preceding the taking up of their lands, in which physical environments have similarly affected. However, the ages, anterior to their arrival in the American continent in which physical conditions had wrought her greatest effects upon the characteristics of the two races, would have provided the physical environments of the white and the black races at the time of the beginning of their career in the physical environments of the white race had been for more pronounced, that than those of their Colored brother, a common origin of the human family. Having accepted this assumption in the development among the races of mankind be owing to the influences of environments andexertions of the traditions, customs and laws of a people together with the physical conditions of the land in which they lived, are pleased to call their environments. These are the most potent factors that assist or retard in the development of their environments. The great guilt that lay between the two races at the beginning of their existence upon American terroins is that which divided the barbarian from an advanced stage of civilization, and that which divided the opportunities of the two races involved so much that between that of master and slave the great gap between the two races has most wonderfully diminished. In fact the development of the Negro has been so phenomaniac even under the most adverse conditions that it has been in the posterity of his former slave a possible rival that may outstrip his own beloved descendants. In the case of the descent all arguments to the contrary, that has given rise to the great race problems that now confronts the Since the abolishment of slavery there are those who have viewed with the rapid development of the Negro the need to have been able to discover plausible ground for adverse criticism can not be called delinquencies of the newly made Negro citizens are due to what extent it is due to the social pressure to which the race has been subjected has not been determined. The letter asserted that the conditions under which the Negro has been compelled to serve more than sufficient to account for any and all his yet discovered delinquencies to society. That the Negro has the significance and the responsibility that citizenship entails in a society has been expected even by his most ardent friends. It is upon this ground however, his powers have enveloped and attempted to monument to his "inferiority." When we consider the short time the Negro has been subjected to the arduous ignorance under the great handicap under which he has labored on account of the lack of proper guidance and opportunity. It is therefore that he must make the progress of which he is so justly proud. After having weighted the circumstances it is little less than ascriptions to even largest racial injustice that it is little less than the indispled evidence that the contrary is criminal laid against a race that holds so much promise. It is therefore that his knowledge of the failure of the Negro to reply to the false charge of "inferiority" has been the acknowledgment of guilt but is not guilty content not only for the baseness of such a charge but also for the failure of who would file such charges. ```markdown ``` THE DALLAS EXPRESS, DALLAS, TEXAS, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1919. DISCONTENT The splendid discontent of God Sets suns in place, stone and stone and whirled If apes had been contented with tails No thing of higher shape The world is the hardest of earth Today would be an ae. And from the discontent of man The world's best progress springs. The reef the flame—from God it can— WE ARE THANKFUL. The custom of America of stopping in its busy career of planning, producing and making of itself the greatest nation on earth is being followed out during this, Thanksgiving week. Thursday marks the passage of another yearly mile-stone in America's journey toward actual practical Democracy and we therefore stop and, looking backward, recount blessings and give thanks. Whole world joined in one sigmatic, earth filling volume of thankfulness for the close war with its accompanying strife, privation, sacrifice and suffering. Today finds that same world perplexed and struggling with the problems of reconstruction and moving on into its real stride which marks definite progress. In America especially these problems of reconstruction have seemed perplexing and in some cases almost insurmountable. Strikes, Revolutionists, Treaties and their accompanying possibilities for future national good or evil, and above all an unusual and inexplicable unrest and disturbance of the public mind have claimed the minds and hearts of those in authority but have not been able to realize the importance. We as a part of the American citizenship are thankful and our thanksgiving is of a particularly genuine sort. During the year just past there have been instances never before heard of that have given us to feel as never before that our struggle toward a realization of the opportunities of the other American citizen is not in vain. We have at last learned in a practical way that unity of purpose is the greatest asset of any struggling body. We have begun to spread out in the commercial world to such an extent that we bid fair to become an indispensable factor in American commerce. Our schools are being improved and best of all we have begun to let the world know that our consciousness is to be reckoned with. We are thankful for many specific things which have not been ours in the years that have passed. We are thankful for our increased material prosperity. It is a matter of common knowledge that during the past year Negroes have purchased more homes, engaged in more and larger business ventures, done more consistent saving than ever before. The realization that begaras are never shapers of their own destinies has come to us and we fully intend that our production in America shall benefit to an increased extent by our presence in it. We are thankful for more democratic and better equipped schools. For many years the meager decrease in our illiteracy has been due to a lack of school facilities. When these facilities are increased so that they affect even a small percentage of us we are thankful for we realize that ignorance is one of the greatest enemies of progress. Louisiana, Georgia, Kentucky and several other states have materially battered their school conditions and produced a more educated and well-educated community nearly what they should be, we are thankful that public conscience has rendered such improvement as is, possible. We are thankful for the forward movement in church life in our behalf. Never before in the history of the Negro in America have the leading Denominations so frankly expressed themselves in his behalf. Never before have they as a body shown that they interpreted the teaching of the Bible in a way that was not understood and amazed at the peculiar religion of Christ which included Chinese, Sudanese, Hotentots and excluded the American Negro from the plan of organized sympathy and Christian kindness. For this fact we are especially thankful. We are thankful that at last in this Southland where we live, the expressions of an ever increasing number of our neighbors and potential friends, give us to feel that our repeated demands for that which belongs eventually will eventually be ours because Public Opinion is chasing always but surely. We are thankful that to a wonderful extent we have become a race of wider readers than ever before and our questions and our relations with others are discussed and thought over by the average number of our Race. This fact above all others is far reaching in its future effects upon our condition generally. It means that unity of thought, unity of action and purpose will make themselves felt more and more in our civic and economic lives for we have found a common meeting place and general clearing house for our thought—the newsletters. We are thankful that our thought habits have changed and that to us has come the consciousness that within us lies the power of our own salvation if worked out according to the eternity long principles of Law, Order, Progress, brotherly live, strict manhood and Justice. We at last know the power that is within us. We can no longer be lulled into dangerous silence when our existence is threatened nor aroused to the extent that we lose our sense of our relationship to others by sporadic outbreaks of a certain percentage of our prejudiced neighbors. We feel that at this time and in this year more than in other years the nearly 15,000,000 of us should most heartily join in a song of Thanksgiving to the Father of the Universe for our marked progress during the period of our life, which lie just before us. There is no doubt but that our journey during the next twelve months will be just as hard or harder than ever before. We are thankful however that heartened and encouraged by our progress though meager during the year just passed we will face it, heads filled with the thought that nothing worth while is accomplished without sacrifice and struggles and we shall be winners indeed if to the generations which are to come we can hand down an unmarred record of perpetual progress, undaunted faith, ever increased resolution, cheerfulness in sacrifice, courage unsurpassed in facing fearful odds though handcapped in our never-to-be-ended struggle for practical Democracy in America. Let the days that are to come find us law-abiding, cheerful, alert, but determined that nothing short of full citizenship shall contact us. Increased progress by increased production, cool, level-headed, organized, and self-sufficient. Our hearts will be filled and our souls uplifted when we say "O Lord we thank the" because we are conscious within ourselves of a duty, bravely and nobly done by His aid and our effort.

Suffice it to say that in all the fighting experience of Negroes, and they have fought in every American war, there has never been a single instance of cowardice and to fel that in this great struggle they had marred such a wonderful record would mean loss of faith in the present generation. It would mean that the Negro had changed in fighting stamina when such is not the case. The comment of many prejudiced officers has done to discredit the achievement of our boys in France, but in spite of such lies the truth has come out. The fact remains and is known now to the whole world that the Negro is one of the most splendid fighting machines in the world. He always has been and always will be. That characteristic is as naturally his as his cheerfulness. His rough bring up and general environment have rendered him so, and future conditions do not point to a speedy change in him. We are glad that the War Department has taken this step. Did you realize that there are thousands of the boys from over neas who are thankful for the change in menu from "Corned Willie" to a real American Thanksgiving dinner this year? Brown sugar is a great pacifier for little boys who cry, but as a sweetener for coffee and sweet potato custard—you can use it I don't want it. Little due bills still remind thee, thou must work hard all the time and departing leave thee more bills on the files of thine. The High Cost of Living and Prohibition have "just ruined" Thanksgiving dinners of the "old fashioned kind." If the coal famine continues Santa Claus will have clean chimneys for use during his Xmas visits. THE MIRROR OF PUBLIC OPINION It will be impossible for those who participated in the lynching at Moberly to give any justification whatever for that lawless act. Even the excuse of necessity for assertion of race supremacy is lacking. To be sure, the robbers were Negroes and the victim a white man, but hundreds of holdups of white men by other white men have occurred recently, in some of which lives were lost. Mob law is not justified at any time, but sometimes there is sentimentally an excuse for it when a special brutal crime has been committed and there is danger of a failure of regular justice. That excuse does not exist in this case. The men were in jail and there was no reason to suppose that they would not be promptly tried and convicted. The statement made in the news accounts, that none of the mob was recognized, indicates a state of local sympathetic and protective sentiment which gives small promise of punishment unless the state authorities take hold of the matter with vigor. Law and order and the regular process of justice through the courts must be preserved in Missouri—Globe Democrat Columbus, Ohio—Ralph W. Tyler has sent the editor of Harvey's Weekly the following letter, condemning his brutal attack on Colored soldiers: Editor Harvey's Weekly, New York, N. Y. Sir: In the November 1st number of your pamphlet, which you dignify with the name of "Harvey's Weekly," you print one of the most brutal and unsupported editorial attacks ever made on the Colored soldier and the Colored race, under the caption, "The Negro Soldier." I am in doubt as to whether you wrote the editorial, or whether Col. Allen J. Greer, late chief of staff for the 92nd (Colored) Division, wrote it. If you did write it, then Col. Greer must have furnished the alleged information, for on applying the "deadly parallel," I find that throughout your editorial you use, verbatim et literatim, the contents of that letter Col. Greer wrote Senator McKeller, under date of Dec. 6, 1918. But Col. Greer, lacking consistency, which is even an admirable trait in a soldier as well as a politician, had previously issued numerous memorandums extolling in the highest terms the Colored soldiers of the 92nd Division for efficiency, department and bravery; he had issued orders to confer the D. S. c. scores of scored officers and men for "exceptional" bravery in the face of the enemy, signing these orders and memorandum with his full name and affixing his military title thereto to attest to their genuineness. Col. Greer's letter to Senator McKeller, under date of Dec. 6, 1918, and to which you, or his, editori suggests the deadly parallel, was written discourage the use of Colored men in the army, either as officers or men, it would appear from your editorial referred to that between you and Col. Greer there exists a gentleman's agreement to assassinate the Colored men on Flanders field to establish something they had never cultured—democracy. I can understand the prompting for Col. Greer's antagonism to the Colored soldier and Colored race, if a report that was generally circulated throughout the 92nd Division is correct, alleging that a Colored officer thrashed him his superior—for directing abusive, profane words to him when they both met at the home of a certain French woman, the colonel and chief of staff being camouflaged in a lieutenant's uniform, as the report alleged, and thus thrashing, it is alleged, the Colored officer was thrashed and the report is correct. I can understand the prompting for Col. Greer's antagonism for the Colored race, even if I can not understand his inconsistency in first extolling the Colored soldiers of his Division in numerous general orders and then assailing them after the armistic had been signed, but I am at a loss to understand your antagonism, unless you have been hypnotized by Col. Greer, who evidently either wrote your editorial or supplied the lying information. I was with the 92nd Division for six weeks as a war correspondent, and I know every statement you and Col. Greer make is brutally false, a damnable injustice to the hundreds of Colored soldiers whose blood dyded and was thrashed by this report, and the safe for democracy." The records in the War Department—even copies of Col. Greer's orders of commendation—brand your editorial and his letter of Dec. 6 as false. The general orders of Gen. Shelburn, commanding the 16th Artillery Brigade (the artillery of the 92nd Division), brand your editorial and its supporting Col. Greer's letter as false. The testimony of Gen. Branum, commanding the 183rd Brigade, 92nd Division, brand it as false. The final order of Gen. Ballou, commanding the 92nd Division, gives the lie to your editorial; the called information to the War Department from Gen. Pershing in August, 1918, brands is as false. The fact that of the enemy, who were commanding when he corresponded with the Croix de Guerre were officers when—299th, 276th and 271st—brands your editorial and Col. Greer's supporting letter as false. Unfortunately, for you, only a few days after your pamphlet, styled "Harvey's Weekley," was issued, the War Department gave out a report of an investigating board exonerating the 38th Regiment of the 92nd Division of alleged cowardice, which you, with your Greer vouchsafed information, assumed to be an established fact. The 32nd Division, the first to sail to France for France, fought splendidly endured horaciously, and those who fell to rise no more died stoically indifferent to fate since they were dying for their country. The 92nd Division's brilliant, valorous stand in the inferno, Bois Fre Haut, the goods which neither the French nor fighting Senagales could hold, but which the 92nd did hold, is sufficient to give it a place in history as a fighting unit, and to remain green in memory after Harvey's Weekly and its assured silent contributing editor, Col. Greer, have been forgotten. The public will prefer to accept the testimony of our correspondents, who have no particular reason to defame brave black soldiers—those living and mained and those dead—than to accept the testimony of Col. Greer and the editor of Harvey's Weekly, who was more than three thousand miles from the scene of conflict. If I should permit your false charge to go unchallenged, the spirit forms of the black soldiers who bravely, heroically fell in the Argonne at Campain, in No Man's Land, in Boise Fre Haut and other bloody fields where they were killed, and up and scorn at me, me traitor—just what they and living are calling you today. An editor ought to be advised before he lies on the brave. MICHIGAN PROFESSOR SAYS LYNCHING REVEALS MENTAL INADEQUACY. "Education and the public school system have failed when race riots can happen," Professor Charles McKenny of Penylianti, Mich. told 400 Nebraska teachers last Thursday in the First Methodist church. His talk was a plea for the social sciences. The killing of even one Negro reveals mental inadequacy in the moth that kills," he said. "We white persons cannot logically hope to kill every Negro in the country. There are 10,000,000 of them. Then what avails the death of one? Likewise, the Negroes cannot hope to kill every white person. Therefore, if neither can radiate the other stock, then each must die. We are not intelligent and sympathetic understanding of the problems that basically cause race riots. We must appreciate the fact that the Negroes will not consent forever to be in economic and social bondage. We must not hinder them in their social struggle. We must educate ourselves and allow them to be educated. We must give the Negro the right to prove that the emergence from its present status. "I remember well your Omaha riot. A young man of this city, who has a college education wrote me. His letter said: I wish I could get a crack at that nigger." The remark proved to me that imsofar as his education was concerned, our schools had failed. The remark proved to me that Omaha women approved of the riot and the killing of the suspected Negro. I do not know whether that article reflected the truth. I may, however, hope that Omaha's women did not abate." New York. N. Y. TYLER DEFENDS RACE SOLDIERS. RALPH W.

There are 10,000,000 of them. In view of the fact that many prominent Republicans are advocating the election of Col. E. H. R. Green as a delegate from Texas, to the next National Republican convention, you will be able to add a few words of communications. Some twenty years ago this man of giant statue, but a boy in age 16, was a delegate to the convention appeared on the political horizon, with this advantage only; that his ideas of Republican principles were the most important of the tutelage of a few of the "old prodigy," soon became a political leader. Aside from his great business interest he accepted the honorable position of a partner and with the crude material at hand began organizing. His task, fraught with impediments and barriers of every imaginable nature and kind, was the different nature of a new and almost admirable, he willingly began the work before him, to the importances of the jelly whale, the new and popular popularity, which floated from Tamallville to Buffalo Bayou, whipping These instruments of attempted coercion although in his own camp, he heeded not and in less than 17,000 (votes) that struck terror in the hearts of his opponents in both of the parties, but he was advocating radical Republicanism as applied to the party, which he was advocating against the social ties of Southern Bourbonism.

But in spite of future defensive resurgence, he eliminated the head and destroy the party. To accomplish this piece of devilry, he encouraged the group to grow in general and Wm. M.

For Mr. Hays made very clear, impressively clear, the act we have of a party is clear, the act we have of a party is service, that it is only a means to an end, not an end in itself, that it is not an end in sacrifice, that it is our commitment, that it has failed in its mission and is unworthy of support. We are too young to be a successful party success is the election of party candidates, but that is only the people's commission. The thing that is most important to a successful party's objective, said Mr. Hays, "is a record of successful political action, a contractual obligation to the people. There is but one kind of successful policies of faithful, efficient and honourable leadership." if we interest ourselves in politics, in the selection of those in this government and in having voice in its operation, and in making our country's affairst our own business, say, is not our national political party. Politics have no virtue in themselves save as they draw virtue from their adherents. Principles are not applied. There is nothing sacred in a label. Nor can government be operated by memories. A party is not a party, not of dead ones, and we can only use the past as a stepping stone to the future. We may be rightly proud of our achievements from its achievements, but the problems of today must be solved by the men of today, even as the Americans in their own time. Globe Democrat THE SAVING HABIT. "one among the most valuable lessons a person can learn at home or in school is that money is the representative of labor, a tangible compensation for efficient service and not to be had merely for the ask-and-answer of a question," Blount, in an article in "The Southern Workman" outline the solution for some of the economic and financial problems of the Negro citizens of the United States, by a child is vastly more valuable to it than one obtained by soliciting money. The service is obviously be taught a better lesson than to be compelled to render some kind of efficient service in return for his labor. The service be trivial; such as carrying wood, washing dishes, dusting or arranging, the value of the lesson "After earning money by working it becomes necessary that it should be given moral and financial benefits may be derived from it. If a child is in need of money to spend it he is acquiring the habits of a spendthrift. Every parents owes a duty to the child in training it. He must teach it wisely. Home training decided whether or not a child is to be be thrift or spendthrift; a saver or a waster; who toll honestly or a slacker who exists at the expense of those who thrift.

Nerroes and that is the record show that they were among those who purchased liberally of Library and Savings Stamps and Thrift Stamps, and that helps a person to acquire the habit of saving generally and it is also the habit of acquire, cultivate and maintain it.

Dr. C. W. Ablington, a Church Builder. Colored country schools through the aid of the Rosenwald fund has much to do with the sentiment behind this appropriation. These Rosenwald schools are found in every southern state; and the increasing sums given them by the states, by local friendships, and by the Negroes themselves, show their values as estimated by both races. $13,200,000; the states have been added $255,000 from public funds while friends have given no-cally $88,500; and the Negroes have given $448,000 a total for school buildings in excess of ordinary approach. Bv N W Harllee The Negro Race is A Church Building Race, he said of 1620 which might God give him first learned the songs of zion. He first learned the songs of zion. For the first time that a Christ came to him and that God had no respect of person and that God allowed him to heaven God lied it even to him and that the other end of this same Negro took naturally to the white Bible, took naturally to his songs, the Negro took naturally to his songs, he was imitated. He loved his father, he honored him, almost adored him on account of his religious pro Being imitative, the Negro not only sang the white's measured songs but made others and sang them with his rich sonorious voice with which the God of Nature had endowed him. All primitive races are strong in imagination and poetic expressions, the harmonic and child-like in the affairs of life that most interest them, and thus it was with the Negro who had come into a new country, into a new clime, among new people, and having no power of education to express their new thoughts, they burst forth in songs such as the world never heard before expressing their joy, the expressing of their new life and their new relations, giving vent to their new feelings in the powerful melody and harmony of their mighty souls that seem to blend and mingle in the things that were divine. God undoubtedly created man for His glory, but why He made different races and people seems strange to some. But why? Why should He create different animals, different plants, different worlds, different fowls and in fact, make everything so different? It was for His glory. Every nation must find service in some way for the Master, so the Negro takes in song and praise in adoration on the great gift of his Maker. So have we never surprised when we see this people building churches and altars to the God of Isaac and Jacob and of Moses. It was but yesterday when a great concourse of people led by a band of martial music, marched with measured step not to war, but to a place dedicated to the cause of the God of our Salvation, to the site where the new and greater St. James is being erected, where the foundation laid in brick and mortar and cement and stone. Here the corner stone was laid under the auspices of the Knights of Pythias of this city, led by the St. Charles lodge, directed by Charminol commandees of that lodge. How, Mr. M. Kushayak and Grand Keeper of Record and Seals, Hon. M. M. Rodgers, was the master of ceremony, while Prof. W. Sidney Pittman was the supervising Architect. It was an imposing sight to see the hundreds of persons marching from the Pythian Temple to the place where the corner stone was to be laid, and when it was laid, there was a new corner stone laid in zion. It is a token that we are for peace, that we are God fearing, and are seeking the things above by living in the religious things below. Every church we build is a monument our faith out. God and our fire devotion in the section which we live. Let us build more churches and more schools for these are they that must count as the mighty elements in racial elevation coupled with right action, right living and as the basis to higher citizenship.

AGITATION, THE SOURCE OF THE GREATEST HARM. (By Associated Negro Press) Atanta, Ga., Nov. 27. - While deploring certain forms of injustice to which it maintains, the members of the Negro race are subject the the state of African America, the state of the country of the Afrika conference of African Methodist Episcopal church, in annual session at Social Circle, an institution an infiltration as follows "This evil, which occurs in every part of the country, exploited through the public press and ariated by its own methods to them, is calculated to do our race and the southern section of the country, and which has occurred since the days of slavery. A grade and class of two big political parties, and a certain number of people, who have to keep the fires burning. The intelligent, Christian, aw-abiding, and are buying farms, building little towns, establishing schools, adjusting themselves to the communities where they are living, and families. The press says little or noting of this phase of Negro life and progress which is going on in the country. The mob violence injured the white people of the south far more than nt it was. It has sent from the south in the last three or four years more than a million from the cotton and corn fields, and they continue to do so. Such criminal and recrimination of people and should be charged by the thoughtful people of this section. The Negro of the south must be wise and careful, knowing himself to be exploited for those things which are not for his moral intellectual and economic deeds, and that count in the end. Justice and right come to those who improve and wait upon the Lord. "The educational propaganda of the Negro from any angle is our greatest need today. " This system and its proper and sane lines and must be done by persons who themselves are proper and sane lines and must be done by persons who themselves are proper and sane lines and sympathy with those they are training. The south is taking on new life and if wisely managed will be the place for those who must have a happy future. For justice and moderation, the Negro must be granted to all according to their good conduct." Concerning this Report, the Atlantic Council calls one of the most influential dailies of the South says, editorially, that a Negro commits a crime—resulting it, may be in a riot—that crime is widely exploited and reports of it go abroad cast over the The better element of the race vastly in the majority may build churches, schools, establish thrifty, peaceful, law-abiding, decency-respecting farm communities and in many ways move upward on the ladder of good citizenship, as they are doing in all parts of the South and little is said about it. But if one Negro brute commits a crime, even in those very communities where the race as a whole is making splendid progress, the world is put on notice, and the ninety-nine who are law-respecting citizens, and who are trying to improve the status of the race, are made to suffer. This form of injustice is being gradually, remedied. Meanwhile, the advice of this conference committee to the race is well worth its careful consideration. The sentiment expressed in this report merits the approval not only of the Negroes, to whom it is specially addressed, but the spirit of the document deserves and will receive the commendation of the white race. MADDEN IS HELD IN ST. LOUIS FOLLOWING SPEECH. (Continued from Page 1). the Circuit Attorney about Madden's campaign. he writes in their written report said that Madden in his speech described a Neuro lynching with much descriptive words and said that occurrences of such attacks were a detection under the flag and that any flag that wouldn't protect its client. Madden, according to detectives did not admit Negroes to carry arm, but walked down the street when some white men insulted him. They quoted PAGE FIVE Dallas Upstairs Shoe Shop. gro's gray hairs would not have protected him, but that when he drew a revolver the white men fled. Madden, at Police Headquarters today, denied he had made an incendiary speech. He said his address was the same he made Sept. 10 at a meeting of Negroes in the Coliseum, in the presence of several policemen who did not interfere at that time. His speech, he said, was solely in the interest of his plan to colonize Negroes in Texas and Mexico and his only reference to the Government was his assertion that there is nothing in the Constitution which specifically gives citizenship to the Negro and that therefore the Negroes can only work out their destiny by segregating in a separate state. Save that $1 to $3 on Shoes for all the family at the Dallas Upstairs Shoe Shop. How possible? Seventy Upstairs Shoe Stores operating as one is the reason. A number of persons interviewed who were near the speaker, state that they could be construed as being inflammatory.

The police said that Madden may be in line with a movement he opposes to disorder. THREE MEN WILLED AT DOGA LUSA, LA.

Surely so important an action as the United States would be not taken without full and free discussion, and I believe that the United States freely condemn those favoring culture if they knew the vastness of the issues involved in this reservation. I believe that the United States will collect her colonial possessions and her spheres of influence embracing an area of 1,046,944 square miles, an area approximately one-fifth the area of the United States, a one-fifth interest in which is vested in the United States under her view of the Allied and associated powers to the United States, if there is an interest in Asia, Africa and Oceania, the German island possessions alone, particularly those of the equator, being in Asia, Africa and Oceania, of great possible value to the United States, and an asset which should not be transferred to a possible unintended consequence. Opposes Giving Up Interest. He has stated interest in the floor of the Representatives that the gross expenditure by the United States for the prosecution of the terrorist group Al-Qaeda, Allies, would total nearly $55,000,000, and in view of this the Senators presented a proposal to sign away our interest in the German colonial possessions, which would be presented to the United States the German African colonies, because I feel that we owe much more to the African peoples because of the African peoples benefited from the population of them. I hold that this nation because of its long experience with and profound interest in the African peoples because of the large population of African descent, is the nation best fitted to administer the African people.

Washington, Nov. 27.—Participation by teachers in solving the larger problems of educational administration is “indispensable to the best development of the public schools,” and a necessary recognition of the principle of democracy, according to a report just issued by the national education commission on emergency education.

In many places, by rule of the board, or by invitation of the superintendent, teachers' organizations have been requested to make recommendations affecting courses of study, the adoption of text books, types of buildings and equipment, the organization of special classes and special kinds of schools, and the formulation of budgets.” "We believe that this participation by teachers is indispensable to the best development of the public schools, and the formulation of bad PRICE $2 PER YEAR JAN 1, 1920 We believe that such participation should be the right and responsibility of every teacher."

"Push" Miller was his constant companion and his greatest admirer. Another guest at the hotel where Checkers was staying was Arthur Kendall. He had the love of Alva Romaine years before but now was anxious to break off with the choicest hush he had humiliated her of his purpose, and left her heartbroken and humiliated by her guests. Kendall had proposed several times to Pert Barlow, a Southern beauty and daughter of Judge Barlow, owner of a racing stable. Kendall's constant state of inebriation was noticed by Sadie Martin, a friend of Pert, who summoned Pert and her father by wire. Kendall to consoles to Kendall from kinsure, turned to Checkers for aid. This proved to be the beginning of a friendship which speedily ripened into love. But Checkers' proposal of marriage and Pert's acceptance were cut short by the arrival of Judge Barlow, who ordered Checkers off the premises—after Checkers had knocked Kendall down in self-defense. Judge Barlow hunted Pert to her room and locked her in. This commemorated greatly, for Pert and Checkers had planned to enter Pert's room in the big race at New York Kendall had bed on silver Dollar, another entry—borrowing $30,000 from Judge Barlow to increase his investment. Meanwhile Alva Romaine had taken the downward path and had become a frequent visitor at Wah's optimum den. When he arrived, while Pert took Remorse from the stable, they were quickly followed by Kendall and his hired dogs. Checkers and Pert gained the box car in which were Push and Remorse, by a flying leap from their automobile, but Kendall's henchmen got on the car by the same method and uncoupled them from the car. The lion in the lion's pantheon was overturned, narrowly escaped a head-on collision with the Limited, and then planned through an open drawbridge into the river. All in the car managed. While the party was trying to find a place to hide Remorse in the city, they were trapped by Alva at Sam Wah's institution. Remorse then was hidden in a secluded chamber. Kendall had his thugs kidnap Pert. She was taken to Sam Wah's den. Checkers and Push learned Pert's whereabouts from a girl whom Checkers had rewired from a stance by ruffians. Checkers and Push rescued Pert after being taken by a man who had been with Kendall. Checkers, Pert and Push escaped from Sam Wah's by way of a sewer, and rowed into the East River in a dog—from which they were picked up on a boat. All ended happily for Checkers and Pert, who were forgiven by Judge Barlow.

LOCKETT. Reporter. AN APPEAL TO RACE WOMEN. A student of Foreign Missions said, "I have always observed that the touch-stone of the civilization of any woman is the touch of a woman." The higher regard there is for women, the more civilized is the nation. "Nero Race is no exception to this rule; and its up to the Race women to make themselves worthy the regard of their men." In this great work; and by paying more attention to the education of your sons, you can make them less ceasing the practice of soiling without the necessities of life to buy for your daughters so many non-essential things, and be worn out from over work and lack of the things necessary to life, so few girls are willing to do with them. In position, "Give your girl accordingly to give you will, will they at whatever cost to their character Church women: You have a noble way by which you can make our world a better place, by the regard of the great men who are spiring up out of this world and by the less narrow in your religious acceptance, less narrow in your religious acceptance and change their way of living, if some good women would live in the street, we would well dwell in tears of repentance and change their way of living, if some good women would live in the street, we would well dwell in tears of repentance and change their way to Jesus who has said, "Though you still be a scarelet, you will love your dignity as a Christian, but you will love your dignity as a Christian, but you will love your dignity as a Christian, but for the purpose of which your Savior died" He came to call for the right to Society's women: There is a deal for you to do for the unlift of Race women; and you can do it; when you cease choking out the seeds of virtue by snobbing good, honest and clean living women in your communities for no other reason than that they work, what you call "In serve. There are scores of intelligent women—with five morals, and sterling qualities among the working class; who if given a chance would not so quickly lower the principles for which you stand (by committing crimes against decency) as does some you so warmly welcome whose only assets are a few fine clothes and a well filled purse; (gotten God's knows where) at any rate they don't have to work and that's all some of us seem to care about. All women cannot be professional but I'll say again. There are some well prepared and noble characters among those who are washerwomen and cooks. Working women: You can be a great factor in making better women for our men. But you must value, not cheaper yourselves. Don't get so lonesome for companionship. That you commit the sad error of having the sons of the high ups to slip around with you at night, when you know full well they won't recognize you in day light. I have heard some very vulgar and heart sickening jokes from the lips of some such men, relative to their affairs with a "Kitchen Mechanic." If you are a cook don't for an instance feel that honest labor makes you bad. Hold up yourself and you will force men to see that a woman's occupation (if honest) does not lower her value. If you cannot become the wives of prominent men, you can, win and retain their respects, if you carry yourself right. So Colored women, one and all let's make it our duty to be women our men will be proud of. They deserve the very best we can give. Better homes, wives and children, for the yoke of no other race in all the world, is half as galling as that of the Norm ```markdown ``` THE DALLAS EXPRESS, DALLAS, TEXAS, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1919 PROF.

DRESS FOR During the evening songs were sung and interpreted by Miss Birdie Peters, who sang Burleigh's "Jean" her sweet voice and masterful rendition was the pleasant surprise of the evening. Prof. Lincolnia Hayes Morgan, Music Supervisor of the Dallas Public School, an ex-member of the Fisk, Jubilee singers for years music leader in Dallas; Prof. K. B. Polk, band leader and violinist of unusual ability, Madam Madeline Carter Hawkins, nationally known as one of the sweetest singers in America and Madam Pratt, whose instrumental interpretation held her heafers in inspired silence. But the event crowning the entire situation was the paper on Harry T. Burleigh's life rendered by Prof. Henri La Bonte, president of the Dallas Academy of Music, white. Prof. La Bonte has put Dallas, in things musical, among the foremost American cities. Besides being a noted tenor singer, the influence of his work as a teacher is felt throughout the entire Southwest. The Music Lover's Club considers itself fortunate in being able to give to the public Prof. La Bonte's splendid address on Burleigh, which is as follows: Harry T. Barleigh. "Many years ago Joseffey, then one of the foremost pianists in this country, was playing in his studio in New York, where he met his pupil and friends, who in the comfort of a luxurious studio, were enjoying the marvelous playing of his piano. He knew that outside, just beneath the window, there stood a little Negro piano from the cold wind, but stood transfixed at the wonderful sounds that came to his ear. This boy was Harry Ellis, the pianist he was Eric, Pennsylvania, the place of his birth, to New York, where he hoped to somehow or other, study his behavior. Later on he was fortunate enough to play for the famous Joseffey, who was a pianist at the piano of a pupil and gave him lessons for a number of years. During this time he studied composition with Max Schubert, the foremost musician of his own people, but is recognized as one of the leading musicians of this entire I first met H. T. Burleigh some six or seven years ago. While in London on George and William Maxwell who are the American representatives of G. Recorder & Co. of Milan, Italy, the two met while in London. While in Mr. Maxwell's office, he asked me if I knew Burleigh and I upon occasion brought in a friend interested in knowing musical personalities. I said that it would be a personal experience, but upon bringing me as being not only an interesting personality, but an extremely cultured gentleman I met but at least I had a friendly face I self-identified with, self familiar with several of the compositions of Burleigh, among them a very popular song, "Jean" and the book, "Afro-American Songs," together with Krebel, but I was not prepared for the remarkable surprise in store for me upon meeting Burleigh. I spent together with Krebel, but I was not prepared for the remarkable surprise in store for me upon meeting Burleigh. I need for recognition, to be heard and I decided to do my part. I was a musician and it is a fact that I have rarely sung in public since that time without using some of the songs of H. T. Since that first meeting I have talked a good many times with Burleigh and he has told me a good many stories of some of the trials and many of the difficulties with which he has to contend. He told me once of how he happened to meet the late J. Pierpont Morgan, whose protege he was, and who added him in his later musical studies and who sent him to Europe to further perfect himself. It has only been during the past years the Burleigh has not and is not interested in the workings it is interested in his interest when Saratoga, N. Y., was famous for its horse-crew and notables and always crowded with notables and the fashion of New York were always this time always there. It was at a Burleigh was in sore finance strain and to make a living he took care of the hotels there. Which in that capacity table which in Morgan and his paris were dining. The famous financier, noticing his table to be better educated the average run of Negro waiters, asked him something him bimonthly studied to be a musician and had aspired to do something worth while. He studied in the cratewhile Negro waiter and from them it was comparatively After studying for several years in Italy he returned to New York and began making him baritone soloist at St. George's Church, one of the most at which church he has remained since that time, recently celebrating his twentieth anniversary as soloist in the church. He also soloist for many years at Beth El Synagogue in New York and the St. Stroeta, Berlin's ambassador to Israel, many hundreds and are sums and played throughout this country in the church. He is a tract to write exclusively for the house of Riccardi and is recognized as one of the foremost authoritative music instructors in New York, and the logical successor of Samuel Coleridge-Taylor.

JAMES The greater St. James A. M. E. church of this city, springs up in the era of church building in which the trustees, the members, and their pastor, the Rev. C. W. Abington are bending every effort to push to completion, and when this magnificent structure is completed it will be an honor to this city. This is to be a spacious and commodious edifice, suitable for the progressive congregation, and in keeping with the new spirit and activity that are invading our city and people. It is said if you wish to measure a people, go to their homes, then to their churches, then to their schools, and finally go to their graves where lie their loved ones, and when all of these are taken in consideration measure up to the standard, you have a correct view of the people you wish to measure. How stands the test in respects touching our measurement? If we do not measure up along all these lines, there seems to us to be room for improvement. The better the churches, the better will be the homes, and the better will be the schools, and the better the schools, the better care of the graves who, our dear ones are at rest.

"He always laughs in the wrong place and spoils a story by trying to guess its climax. The senator undertook to Poor Ferguson" he said. "That was a close heave he had in the desert last August. "No, he exacted," said the bore. "No, not exactly," said the senator. "You see, Ferguson stumbled accidentally on the Cauldron—our famous spring, you know, that gushes out of the ground. But it begins to dribbly begins to bolt from the bore of the sun. "Of course, of course," said the bore. "Of course, of course to Ferguson? Did he fall in the cauldron and bolt to death? He on with your story, man." "Ferguson fell in," said the senator. "Ferguson fell in, again. The peel, however, was not yet over for him. Our Arizona air, you is so doy, is that absorb moisture with astonishing rapidity. Well, the peel evaporated so fast that the poor fellow instantly froze still. "I see's the bore. "He died of pneumonia." "No, he didn't die," the speaker said. "He almost died, but he had a humminous escape.

He could not resist the stunshot if he hadn't providentially broken into a cold sweat." the first king of Rome in the state of King Charles I, which was hidden in London for protection during the war, has been brought to light again. The statue, which was cast during the reign of the monarch, according to reports has not been identified, and it is supposed to be omitted to most works of its kind. It was executed for Sir Richard Weston, afterward earl of Portland, who intended to place it as an ornament in the church, but the function it never fulfilled, for it was seized by parliament during the Civil war and sold, to one John Rivett, a brazier, to be broken up, John, however, to be sold to the king, and by selling hundreds of bronze knife handles purified to be made from it, disarmed any parliamentary suspensions in the matter. On the results of the trial, the statue produced the status, which was claimed by Sir Richard's son. The braster refused to yield it, and after years of dispute it was eventually presented to King Charles II and erected in the original Charing Cross. From the work of recent explorations, Sir Douglas Mawson concludes that the rock foundation on which the Antarctic ice cap resists very irregularly, and that its thickness, which is very variable, may reach a maximum of several thousand feet. Under the ice cap, the base may be as great as one ton per square inch. Under such a covering there may be a considerable accumulation of heat, and it is a factor that the ice cap's mass is undoubtedly soft and plastic. Where the sea breaks up the ice at a rate faster than the flow, the sea front becomes more turbulent, and elsewhere, in the Great Roe barrier and the Shackleton shelf, the supply of ice exceeds the rate of erosion at the sea front, and the view from the ice cap "shelf ice" extending far out to sea.

The school was well attended during the last four years as it has been possible to hold the sessions, and for that reason the attendance decreased from the enrollment since 1915, when the enrollment one hundred fifty but forty was the best enrollment since 1915, this year in addition to get back to the old campus and commodities building. Some teachers were enrolled in the seventy five per cent over the previous three years. This year the Board of Education granted the use of the Colored high school to the students in need in order to get back to the old campus and commodities building. Some teachers were enrolled in the seventy five per cent over the previous three years. This year the day, teachers were encouraged to make of an intensive preparation for the examinations, preparation was discouraged, and, at a very early day, teachers got down to hard work. From the systematic preparation of the teachers were able to make the necessary preparation to secure the degree. The following teachers secured certification: - Principal J. H. Waller - Primary certificates—Mrs. M. L. Dickerson, Mrs. I. IsaRayn Second Grade 4 years—Misses Annie Porter, eBaie Roper, Mahals Stephens, —Lasha, Ruby Clay Ada Hembra, Carrie Johnson; Mrs E. J.

Out of 38 who took the examination it will be seen that 29 were successful. This was the most successful normal ever held in Dallas and very likely in the state.
