St. Louis, Mo., Feb. 12—Lillie Smith, of 4318 West Belle Place, filed suit against the Frisco railroad for $5,000 alleging that as a result of three white men being allowed to ride in a "Jim Crow" car, where they played cards and used profane language, she suffered humiliation and mental anguish. Miss Smith boarded the train at Memphis, on her way to St. Louis, and while passing through Arkansas, where a state law forbids whites to ride in cars reserved for Colored people, the men got on and started a card game. Their language shocked her extremely, as they had no respect for a lady, and she has been in a state of deep dejection and nervousness. Had Colored men disregarded a white woman in a white coach, our columns would be headed, "Another Lynched," notwithstanding the fact that the columns of daily papers would not bear the disgraceful heading "Negroes Shocked."

Mr. Hayes ranks among the leading concert artists of the day, and from his first appearance with the Fisk Jubilee Singers in 1911 his succeeding appearance in America has been artistic triumphs. Unbroken successes have been found in the Betsy-Mackie Middle West, and he, in the Pacific Coast, America, unwillingly welcomed him into its group of eminent concert recitalists, and Boston, in spite of its supercriticality, has given him the opportunity to attain high rank in the world of music. He has been compared with Caruso, and he has been compared with the Black Black and he has been placed beside McCormick, with the result that the two have been called the leading Irish and the leading Negro tenor, respectively. Through all such comparisons he has stood eminently to himself not only as an interpretative artist, but as the poetic artist, and a cultural and cultural vehicle which carries instant conviction of the true artist, as a vocal Birmingham to Have $10, 000 Negro Bank.

THE DALLAS EXPRESS has never holated the white feather, neither has it been disgraced by the yellow streak. It is not affiliated with the fanned mouth. It is a plain, every day, sensible, conservative newspaper, which trims no sail to catch the passing breeze; files no doubtful flag. It professes a patriotism as broad as our country. Its love of even handed justice covers all the terri- tory occupied by the human race. This is pretty high ground, but we live on it and are propering. Boys of the press come up and stand with us. This ground is holy. W. E. KING. SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1920 LOUD GEORGE AND JAZZ NEW LANE MUSIC, SWEET MUSIC Newspapers accounts state that Lloyd George, Premier of England, had his first Jesus dance, in Paris, when he was 14, to keep going to it before he added to keep going it up. If he has the time, the orchestra was American and the ripples of joy up the spinal column of brother George to such an extent, that he forgot all about the dance. No wonder the Premier of England forget his nikky question of controversy, when he heard that the only American music now existing, the Negro has furnished the only only only American music now existing. McDowell at his best hand nothing on the average boy of our group in the country, and we know that it does, the Negro has furnished the only only only American music now existing. Our culture affinity for music is not given gift which distinguishes us from all other of his human creations. We must never fail to encourage it. The Toronto Star weekly closes a news item telling of the American bruising record by saying, "Someone at the Ballet thinks of us." White has no direct way of memorizing how a Bolshavit wife and thinks, "The only old Bolshavit is above roasting his fellow citizens and dragging burned corps around town behind his knowledge." News has come to use of the establishment of a Negro Daily in New York. It is gratifying. There should not begin to step out into that field of journalism heretofore rented by the university, but of our public in keeping informed. The Dallas Express extends to the promoters of this venture its best wishes for success. Well and good for Dempsey, but we are wondering why the league is so particular about that many quality in some men and women. There are thousands of Negro ex-soldiers whom there is no charge other than that they are black. You can't keep a good man down. The sams is true of races and nationals.

Every community which has grown, progressed and amounted to anything at all has been helped by the boosting of its own members. Its growth to a great extent has been governed by the number of those who have boosted is more than advertising. It is the conscious helping in every possible way in the bringing to final success of the proposition in hand. It means the discouragement of critics who would tear down without having anything better to offer. It means the capitalizing of the successes of those who are interested in the proposition in hand. In a word it means promotion to the given cause or proposition. Our group in Dallas numbers more than 42,000. Our city from many view point offers unlimited opportunity for development along many lines. It now offers by reason of the boasting of a number of its citizens several years ago, an example of the kind of growth and progress possible where all pull together. Our group here in many respects lacks this interest in our common good which guarantees boasts of individual or collective effort rather than knocks. To a great extent, the average visitor coming among for the first time of cohesion and effort at community advancement by individual effort. A visitor from another Texas city recently remarked, "There's a great difference in the spirit of the people here and in —" naming another large Texas city. He continued: "I can hardly tell exactly what it is but it seems that all of the people a fellow meets are not proud enough of their city to make a visitor feel that it is the livest town in the state." We can sum it all up in a few words. We don't boost enough and mean it. We do knock some through, and considered in proportion to our boasting we knock too much. We live in the most prosperous city in Texas. Our people here are among the most prosperous in the matter of advancing our collective interests. As a group we must progress. The group interest must claim a greater share of our attention. We must become more thoroughly imbued with the spirit of all together we go." Individual success counts. But group interest in individual effort because we realize the advantage to our group of individual success, must make us more considerate, more helpful, more ready to An editorial of the Negro Associated Press a few weeks ago was headed "any where, so long as it be forward." It admirably with the progressive spirit which must characterize us more and more. Let any body lead so long as he leads forward. We must back any movement which guarantees to take us a little farther along the road which ends to in pride in our achievement. We must take it at one time to which he had never gone before. On walking outside of the Railroad Station he inquired the way to the nearest restaurant. The man of whom he asked went a block out of his way to be sure that he reached his place. The restaurant proved to be clean, well appointed and cheery After ordering his meal the waiter said "as you seem to be a stranger here, may I ask if I may be of service to you in finding a place to stay or in locality." The friend, make a long story short, the man showed by such small gestures of compassion that their boosting spirit was strong and they wanted all who might come along to know that they were in a progressive city. The result of such little courtesies and services is increased patronage of individual ventures for public accommodation and a promotion of group interest which is obtainable. Our group showed that their boosting spirit was strong and they wanted all who might come along to know that they were in a progressive city.

Your friends are welcome. My friends are welcome. We are all moving forward and every step forward made by one of us improves us all. Let us begin to boost more and knock less. Let us begin to tell the world more and more that we are together on everything that moves us. DIRECTION IS NECESSARY The lack of direction in the lives of many grown people is due to the lack of the direction of their thoughts while they were young. Many a Nero male, ambitious, ambitious, ambitious, at which he should be rounding out and getting settled in his career, wondering just what course to pursue or to take. In the case of a child, who they control, caused the lack of directions of the thought of the child of a generation age by their parents, the children of this present good encouragement. Children early in life by constant encouragement in a given direction will in time form a distinct desire for the puruance of that course and will be able to follow it. direct. The coming years will demand much more of them live in them than before years. Specialization which is now only moderately necessary, will in the next generation be an absolute necessity in the struggle for existence and growth, and parents of today, expect a new generation. Nerges More lines of endeavor than have ever existed before for Negros are opening every day. Visions of industries involving millions and employing thousands of our people are growing. We are building a new management and growth the world will judge on fitness and efficiency as part of it, will demand special direction and thought habits to sustain our special direction. We are mastering knowledge of many things with a mastery of none is worse than unless. College training now is the pursuit of our knowledge in order to determination in such comprehensive knowledge in modern life and its constant increase with continued development the necessity for such directive. Good. It will have any child many days of ineffectual work and may be years of minded退避, if while he is young he is taught the positive abilities and advancement of mankind or any other special line. While he is still a child he may by such direction of thought habit, begin at least to learn to be a man, and an attention to facts in regard to it which otherwise would have been last to him and which even at that age will add to the sum total of the knowledge he has acquired. Our group offers numerous of men who have attained success in different fields of endeavor. There is no death of Negro men to whom parents have sent him, and there is no death of Negro men to whom parents may be truly said that every Negro who tries now will find success much more easy of attainment than did those who succeeded in Make them familiar with Nerro achievement. Teach them the value of definite aims. Encourage them while young to choose a career. There is no doubt that such a system of training of children is an important aim. Well directed members of our group who will do much toward increasing this sum total of our productive ability. Some of our people believe to a great extent in sign but personally the infallible sign which we have found so far is the slim pocket book which forsells hard times in these days of riding cost. We have learned by experience that procrastination spells disaster in money saving. To postpone putting it away is a guarantee of spending it. When a married man tells his single friend that "There's nothing like it. It is only courtesy which keeps the friend from saying that some habitual drinkers say the same thing about prohibition. We figure sometimes that if, Adam had known what God was going to do with that rib, which he took from him, he might have made a few timely suggestions in regards to the matter. Judging from the number of ministers who paid income tax the maintenance of our spiritual welfare is very inexpensive.

Lynchburg, Va., Feb. 12—In a county not for from Lynchburg, lill an aged white woman, the last of her family, who is being tenderly cared for during her last day by a woman of her family, is assured that she will lock for no attention the old people can give her and that this condition will not occur. She will be held and the coming of the war the slaves belonging to the family became free.

The Good Samaritan in this case worked hard and propered and when his former mistress was stricter with paralysis and none was there to care for her, he took her there. Then a competent Colored woman was hired at $7.00 a week to nurse the sick woman. The woman looks for nothing they can afford, for they have opportunity to repay kindness of an old family or a veteran ex-slave has not forgotten. Just recently the condition leaked out here when the Colored parrot was given a short leave, during which she came to Lynchburg. When asked if she could not come here for domestic work, including the story in telling why she could not leave home, for she had promised she the former a stay with the old man as long as she lived. THE MIRROR OF PUBLIC OPINION THE UNSURE STRUGGLE There's Mr. P.---, said a very friendly and I think very honest white man,—"he's one of your people: he doesn't have any trouble,—gets along as well as any of us white people. Why, he's the only Colored man living on that boulevard." Now, it was too long to know P.P. This white man only sees this Colored man's office and his car and the exterior of his home. He may also have observed (at a distance) the culture and refinement of the Colored man's wife and daughter. But I dine with the family and while the dinners are d.gesting they tell me everything of secret battle and life struggles. O'yes, they are "the only Colored people" in the world. I think I will be the only who has the way they found there? A conspiracy was formed against them as soon as it was learned that they were trying to buy a good home. The bankers were secretly notified to refuse them any loan; their white "friends" and patrons smiled deceitfully and lied easily as the surprised Colored man turned from one to the other of them for help; they were "really sorry, but I've ever been through all the time," he said. He was veryوحواله سفارشه ريحمم دومين، وشه ريحمم دومين. The white woman who lives next door, went into the city and picketed this Colored man's business at the door of his offices. And this same woman never missed a chance to talk loudly to the grocery boy, the life man and the white neighbors over the back fence about "niggers—nigers—niggers." She opens the windows of her house which is newest to some of these Colored people, which are more likely to be most塞然 that her own, and only display her real uncertainty on every unseas occasion. Only the good sense of this-Colored family has so far kept down trouble, but it has not kept out all of the pain. The meanness which they had to face is almost inmeasurable and unruly because they did not know what to do. It was white people who now. Now, it must be remembered that not every Colored family that tried as hard would be as successful in making good and avoiding trouble as the wealthy influential white people of that city greatly need and value; and at least the refusal of this class to join directly in the attack, has saved these people from the vengeance of the meaner whites. But it is not the wealthy influential white people of these people, who are a merchant competing with those people—then what? Yes, air, just as surely as Frederick Douglas lived, the successful black man must be certified not only with the right to whiten but with the right to be white. He must have with the opportunity which he has improved, but for the opposition which he has overcome.

HIDDER—N. Y. A New Year Message The world has been plunged into the dark abyss where human selfishness has placed lot. Malery has reigned where in time past joy was the order of the day. All seems to be unrest and yet there are those who have been so selfish that they have been the dying echoes of the machine gun. Men's ideas are still clashing and fields of France and Belgium are quiet but real peace has not followed them. The world is still in a state of war. Millions have laid down their lives for peace that has failed to come. The silent helds, the mutilated bodies of helpless women and children and the saddened faces of the bereaved are pilft testimony that war has been so cruel that but peace must emanate from a higher source than guns and swords. What is peace? Peace is the song of angels. Peace is the greatest gift we can think of at this season. It is the gift of God. Some day when we are going to die, we will be surrounded with a sword and gun. Every man has the price of peace within his own heart. Good will toward men comes from every heart that loves all mankind. Real happiness and success are dependent upon divine law. The greatest danger the world faces today is ignorance of divine law. Many men do not realize that they are standed on the purely animal plane. The world is not a place where man can be but vavely underwritten by many. With selfish thoughts man creates a sheer ignorance of divine law. With selfish brings harmony, peace and fairness is but vavely underwritten by many. With selfish thoughts man creates a mighty whirlwind for himself. Caught in its destruction he finds he does not want the miserable thing he created. He tries to escape by going to the other side. The angels same the answer to man's heart cry nearly two thousand years ago. That song has been re-echoing from generation to generation on down through the ages and yet there are countless millions who have never been able to escape. no ancestry tree to demonstrate the greatest law of God—the The real foundation for democracy is God's law, which establishes the basis for men's relations with each other.

SECRETARY'S FAILURE CAUSES REGRET No Word From Base Ball Meeting Has Been Received. The Dallas Express wishes to explain to its base ball natrons that its failure in printing the proceedings of that late session of the Texas Colored Base Ball League held at San Antonio February 1 to 2 inclusive, was brought about through the failure of the secretary of the League. It was asserted that the secretary was to furnish to all of the leading race journals of the state with a copy of the entire proceedings, which was of vital interest to the thousand fans of Texas and Oklahoma. There were, it is claimed, some high class legislation, such as arranging of salaries of players and or officers to the League, the establishment of a statewide scoring system, and the creation of a sinking fund to take care of the financial end of a regular stabilised organization. Such information as this would have been very helpful to players and followers of the game alike, but through the negligence of its secretary to furnish necessary data, we were forced to present this sad disappointment of which we keenly regret. amazing beautiful ing Festival.

FIFTY YEARS OF FREEDOM COMPARED WITH TWO HUNDRED YEARS OF FREEDOM TUDE, A RACE BORN IN A DAY REACHES THE AGE OF FIFTY FIVE. A REMARKABLE PROGRESS ALLELWITH ALL OF NINEEW- LANES-OWNED IN ERA THE SIZE OF IRELAND. A Negro Buys One Million Dollar- Worth of Liberty Bonds in Louis- lan—The Largest of Any Other Single Individual of that State it was born in. By N. W. Harllee The American New York is fifty-years old, fifty years old of constitutional freedom, years full of experiential adventure, years full of least, full of education and hope. What shall we find in the accommodation of a man or woman, who has reached the age of fifty-five years? And now what shall we say or expect of a man or woman of fifty-five years, the age of fifty years, since the race is made up of individuals? How other races declare is still in the experimental store? Shall we meet new materials or shall we measure it by what we think we are. Let the sports meet the measure. The measure may be applied in two ways: It may be found from the growth and taking the two together, we may arrive at the correct measure. One way to measure a person is by the number of acres of land owned by a citizen. We thought that comes to the mind when speaking of a citizen is he who lives in the house in which he lives, or is he a part of the community by possession? Well, these are good homely people. We thought that he was reasked till we shall have some million or more of Colored people on five hundred thousand homes, own five hundred thousand homes, freedom without an author, they can lay claim to five hundred Negro homes, freedom without an author, they can record the patent office at Washington, we find that one thousand Negroes have been granted patents; some of these inventions have been of material aid in the advancement of technology, many lines. We find that brains and skill will pay good dividends and they apply so as to bring about the best results. For these considerations, we are much indebted to the inventors of the patent office of apostolic education. Dr. Dr. Booker T. Washington made one hundred and a half hundred homes and had a better effect on our people in home than any other single home. than any other single hundred of Colored people purchased homes and opened bank accounts after that address. It was an amazing success. We home to the minds that became enraptured for material uplift. Soon after that, we showed that Colored people paid taxes on property valued at over a million dollars in a most wonderful character that impressed all who heard him in his home getting sermons. Four thousand physicians in fifty years for a race born in a day, measure up in a degree that any people can attain, and the twenty-five hundred trained nurses 'who are to look after our sick and to handle the afflicted with our care' are to be asset in the time of need, while the two thousand lawyers of the country are from slavery with not a single attorney of race men; then no, we are told that there are no more profession than that of Negro civil and mining engineers, whose skill and dexterity in their profession are mortorious and praised in real thing a credit to their race wherever and whenever they have worked in the land that told the era of land that the Colored people own in this country and that is the land of Ireland, and that he must be of Ireland, when it is taken in consideration that 'the Colored man started with nothing, not even the rags on his head, but that he had land except the blue sky above his head and today he owns land enough to be as Ireland. What has the race wrought, and yet we are only fifty years, age the age of a young man, and we are more along other line, but this is sufficient to point to some of the few achievements that may encourage We can scarcely believe that a Colored man in Louisiana once one of the most powerful Liberty Bonds during the late war, the highest amount purchased by a eleagle individual in the war, or the highest amount purchased in fifty years of progress from poverty and plinking want in 1868. Then, too, in the purchase of Liberty Bonds and other government securities are a matter of record and need not be We could mention the great work that the church is accomplishing by a host of ancient christian ministers who denounce our people and without these the race would be at sea, for it has been the ministers that kept the faith alive and that have narrow path. The teachers too have accomplished a commendable work at a sacrifice, working on small salaries and with many incompen- But to conclude the work of fifty years after two hundred and fifty years of servitude, is a most remarkable one.

Recently two ladies used this method of entertainment and by their beauty of arrangement presented a strikingly novel and entertaining mode of entertainment for their guests.

They were mounted artistically on cardboard and numbered with large numbers cut from calendars. They were pinned around the walls of the Living room. A conspicuous number of purely Negro Enterprises were included, and we have quite a few to draw into. The guests were then given a few invitations to number their learners to the mounted cards on the walls opposite each number. The name of the article advertised was to be written. A prize was given for the best card of correct answers. The ladies at this party they had not yet had the card, and the learners only been at the same time as the learning, and tea with lemons drops for sweetening were served. from the most unimpending environment.

PAGE SEVER -WEEKLY- LESSON IN CIVICS. Twenty Million New Voters. When thirty-six states in the United States have ratified the Federal Suffrage, the voters will be added to America's electorate at a slip. Except for Huntersville, North Carolina, as that added to an electorate of full-fledged voters at once in the mid-19th century, new voters come from a division of people who have been systematically excluded from politics and civics. They are all women. Most of them will be voting for the first time in their lives, and they will be voting in the time in their lives. They will be voting on such superior proportions as the United States and on issues that are vital to the life and well-being of our nation. What is America doing to prepare these novelties? Just what she has always done for the first twenty-two years by year. Just what, until very recently, she has always done for the first twenty-two years by year. What is absorbed by naturalization process years by year. America is putting it squarely up to the women themselves to learn their way about in the new sphere. Given the vast number of hands, thousands of the women who will vote this year for the first time couldn't tell which hand held the pen. Thousands of women don't know what a pulling place is and have been made mostly afraid of pelling places or barely aware of all lions to them. Ladies' Home Journal.

THE PASSING OF MRS. MARIA TUCKER. On Jan. 23, 1959, our dear Daughter, Mrs. Maria Tucker passed away. She gently knocked at the door of our Heavenly Father about 2 o'clock. O matchless kindness! O lovely attitude! He proved a great friend to admit her, whom He had prepared with so much love, so tenderly such true devotion, to enter into her. She of course was very dear to her, presence was always pleasant, won for her a host of friends. She was present with us on Tuesday, she was night and left us on Thursday. When it was time for her to answer to her name and her time on this earth was no more, how sweetly Jesus made up her dying bed; our daughters whom she loved so dearly were not as tried and true, as Jesus whose call she lies toen. Though we loved her dearly God loved her more. Then we will greatly miss her company, her smiles, her words of encouragement, her ambition, her kindness, her love. But daughter, God doeth all things well. And we must bow to humble and sceptical to a Great Savage, we will die our tears. And we will share our sorrows in another link is broken, another dear daughter gone-to join the great Tabernacle, not made by hands but by Him, who can relieve a heart of pain; and who has opened wide His arms to receive her to Heavenly home where she awaits our coming. Dear husband, dear daughter, Here, relatives, we the Daughters of God, plank, like lilies pure and white unfolds when we shall see and clearly understand that He knoweth best. We mingle our fears and sympathy with you, nothing but the thought of the loving hand that has rewarded her can reconcile you to her absence. May God watch over you in the future and help you to be a good friend, and be safe in Jesus, and when this short life here is over we shall all be re-anished, where there'll be no more sorrow, sickness, and death, no more partings, but where all will be joy and ever lasting peace. No more good bye, no more heart ache. Be it resolved that a copy of these resolutions be placed on record book and a copy to the family. Hespeetfully, J. H. WYNN, P. P. H. MARY CLOPTON, H. P.

THE NEGRO YEAR BOOK. We are glad to announce to our reading public that the Negro Year Book for 1918-1919 is off press and may be obtained from Prof. Munnison, Work, Tuskogee Institute, Tuskogee, Ala. This new edition, enlarged and improved, contains the information of former issues revised and brought down to date. One of its most interesting features is an apical heading that identifies the regard to race relationship and Negro activity in the recent war and peace.

So much information is whose information is absolutely reliable.

Rides in Dead Wagon—Beady for Embalming Table—"Gee I am Cold" He says, When Awakened and were Surrounded by Undertakers. Members of the night staff of the Feoples Undertaking Company were given a thrill (that would dance up and down the spinal bord like a dasher in a churn) when the breathless body of Dan Clay was brought into the Peoples Undertaking Establishment last Thursday morning. At 3 a. m. last Thursday morning Clem Jordan, night man and Will Smith answered a call at Central and State street where the body of Clay was found; placing it into the basket and in the wagon. returned to the undertaking establishment to prepare it for burial. When opening the basket the undertakers, one at the head and the other at the foot, noticed with peculiar precision the strange position the corpse occupied and the disarrangement of the sheet placed over it. Will Smith, who was cool and deliberate throughout the gruesome test, noticed a quivering of the eyelids and said to comrades: "This man is not dead," continuing his remark, with further disclosures. Smith found that the dead had really come to life when the supposed dead man spoke, saying: "Gee I am cold." Smith assisted him in vetting up and carried him to the fire. The undertakers who were about to embalm the body claim that the man seemed unmoved at the queer incident and conversed with the undertakers freely. He was afterwards carried in the ambulance to the City Hospital for further treatment. Mr. Clay has a brother, Henry Clay, who was notified of his come back. He had fallen in trance where he remained more than four hours. Clay has been suffering several weeks with heart troubles. Mrs. Mattie Clay's version of the story runs like this: "I live at 500 West 42nd Street, Clay, my brother-in-law, also lives. He has been sick three weeks and changed for the worse. Wednesday he family and other friends sat in watchful waiting at the bedside for a change in his condition. At 4:30 the day he was observed and the final end had come. He was pronounced dead and was taken to the early Thursday morning to ring the undertakers and have them prepare the body for burial. We planned 3 o'clock the day before and prepared to prepare it for the funeral which had been set.
