Philadelphia, Pa., March 28.
Quoting the old homely proverb "Satan will find a무렵한 날" to do, Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, now Assistant Secretary of the Navy Department, has authorized his endorsement of the Playground and Recreation Association of America's program and particularly its work among the Colored people. In a letter to E. T. Atwell, Field Director, Community Service, Bureau of Colored Work, which the Association maintains, he says, "am strongly in sympathy with Community Service in general, and in particular with the program that you are sponsoring for promoting it among the Colored people. It is practical patriotism. By developing proper recreation for leisure hours on a community basis, you build up, at the same time, community spirit and an individual's character. For many and diverse reasons such activities among our Colored people fill a real want. Any one who contributes to it can rest assured he has contributed to constructive American development."

Atlantic City, N. J. March 25—
That the proposed hotel Fitzgerald,
the new million dollar hostelry to
be built by the Fitzgerald hotel and
Development Corporation, of this
city, will become an actual accomplishment, is the statement given out
this week by the officers of
that company. That this hotel has
not been started before has been
made clear in the Courts which the
company has waged to get possession
of the property bought for the hotel
and which has been the larger tract of land cleared up.
The fact that land in Atlantic City
has been in a boom, and the further
fact that the site acquired by the
company has more than doubled in value, has
been the race people here, are the chief
causes why the hotel company has
more than doubled in value, has
been the race people here, are the chief causes why the hotel company has met with difficulty. This was caused by Robert Inser
CLAIMS NEGRO HEALTH OF VITAL IMPORTANCE TO ALL
"One of the reasons for Mehary's accomplishments is the fact that it is possible to make it possible for enterprising young Negroes without means to gain their technical education in the pharmacy on the excellent theory that no better material for the prosecution of the criminals pushed ahead to their goal in spite of poverty. Consequently it is possible the matriculation to get vocational and laundry for $25 to $30 a month. Hisition is held down to about $15 in other and other items in proportion.
Mehary Medical College was founded through difficulty and hardship in an institution with a number of buildings, an anatomical hall, two classrooms, and a gymnasium maintained. The school has a library of 100,000 volumes in its library, and Colored people of the North and South. Most of the Colored physicians and students of the South are Colored.

Oklahoma City, Okla., March 23. Enraged because his wife, Rosie Bowens, had had a restraining order issued, denying him the right to enter his home. Alonzo Bowen, Negro laborer, dashed into the little hut on Eastern Avenue, Thursday, and dragged his wife into the rear of the lot where he first stabbed her, then crushed her skull with an ax. He then entered the home, loaded his revolver, returned and shot two bullet holes into the dead woman's body. Bowens then, according to the neighbors, dragged his wife's corpse into the two-room shack, pitched her on the bed, locked the door and blew his own brains out. Bowen also cut and slashed, almost fatally, a crippled son of his wife. The boy saved his life by crawling through the fence into the next yard of a neighbor, where he hid while his stepfather was bursting his mother's brains out a few feet away.
House Looked Like a Slaughter
When a reporter reached the scene, the house had been locked, but a view through the window exuded a sense of overturned clock was on a small table, while beside the table was a stack of stinkening. This is probably where Bowens fell after taking his own

Chicago, March 23.—Here, in might be called, artistically speaking, the home town of Mary Garden, greatest of Salomes, a Negro girl has assumed the mantle of Oscar Wild's famous heroine. A e-baret dancer has played Moller's immortal rogue, Scaplin. And a company of Colored actors have rediscovered and produced a German drama by the "father of expressionism" which makes "Roger Bloomer" look very, very commonplace.
This remarkable experiment is preparing to move east. By easy stages and the hard road of much rehearsal and many performances it may ultimately reach New York probably next fall.
The company played in one of the houses of south Chicago under the name of Negro Folk Theatre. The results of presenting Wide, Moller, and expressionism to the Negro population of Chicago seem to have been largely artistic. Its support has come from the white audience that has backed the various hombres of the community playhouses of Chicago.
The Negro Folk Theatre has been the ambitious undertaking of Raymond O'Neill, a director who worked for some years at the head of the Cleveland Playhouse, and amateur touring theatre. After a visit to Europe he returned to America, and gradually came to the opinion that he could get more vigor and expressiveness out of the ill-trained actors of the Colored race than out of the white amateurs and professionals.
O'Neill brought back from Germany the script of a play called *The Actors' Play*, which he wrote years ago by Boucher, a playwright so far ahead of his time that his plays were very little acted in his lifetime, and he has hailed as the "father of German expressionism." One of his dramas, *Reinhardt's great circus theatre* in Berlin, and may be given here next fall when the German director Reinhardt's great circus *Morris Gest. George* is a play in twenty scenes that fade in and out of one another. He also wrote *Roger Bloom* from all manner of occupations Some of the actors were professionals. A couple had even toured the United States and in art dancers. One had been a barber. Opinions vary considerably as to the artistic quality of the performers; and a good many Chicagos assert that *The Requests of the Artist* are an entertaining entertainment with the elaborate dance skipping along and the elaborate dancing lines as they went along.

the house and back by the fence in the end of the lot where the maddened ax man slaughtered his victim, another sickening evidence of the woman's last struggle was to be seen.
The trouble I got into today I will never get out of nor I want to get out of it." Bowen is known to have made this statement to a neighbor Thursday morning, who had cautioned him that he ought leave the city to avoid trouble. "We heard six shots fired in the house before Bowens rushed out of the street, but the wife, wife, the little woman, match," Jimmy Jones, whose home is next door to the hut where the tragedy occurred. "After he stabbed her, Mrs. Bowens got up and crawled almost to the fence. It was then that Bowens rushed back and grabbed the ax, crushing in her fore-head.
Trouble had been brewing in the Bowen home for some time. Last year, after difficulties in the home, Bowen left the city for a period. Neighbors state that Mrs. Bowens took a shot at her husband during this time and that she made the brass that she had already escaped of the house. The first play after the killing, neighbors charge that Mrs. Bowen threw hot water on her husband while he laid asleep in the bed.
Bowen is said to have grown frantic and seemingly lost his mind after his wife secured a court order barring him from the property. Her daughter, Mrs. Bowen, had also been under a heavy peace bond. The two bodies were a frightful sight and viewed by hundreds at the Tucker Undertaking parlors all day Friday. Mrs Bowens was shipped to Navasota, Texas, accompanied by her daughter, While the body of the woman was stopped to Sherman, Texas. Tuesday.

Copenhagen, says one enthusiast, severed play they move amusingly in Paris.
She has a special matinee of "Salome," which was given along with a comedy of Negro life, "The Chip Woman's Fortune." The writer, writen by the playwright and had some of the native and pungent folk quality of Lady Gregory's "Salome," which she wrote. Evelyn Freer, Sidney Kirkpatrick, and the rest of the cast, it was said, were very rigidly Torrence which Robert孟蒙 Jones and his Colored players produced at the Garden Theatre. "Salome" was another matter. The illusion of Syria was later imitated by the playwright, who asked for no better performance. When the voice of Johannan (Solomon Bruce) scored up from his prison cell, there was this marvelous vocal quality to the performance. Everywhere in "Salome" with a performance might have felt satisfied to have, and she shewed in a dart which, within the property of the female character, the female wandered into the performance, but, by and large, it did a great deal nably wordy and "precious" play.
Most every one who has read the Bible and learned of the magnificence and enchanting lore of Palestine has had a strong wish to go there. Great has been the desire to see the land where Christ lived. No Bible student has felt his education complete without walking among the splendors of Jerusalem, viewing the spots where Christ was born, crucified, was buried and ascended into Heaven.

WHAT HEALTH WEEK MEANS
Though Texas has been observing National Negro Health Week for five years and has benefited much as the result of it, much more attention must be paid to it in order that the fullness of its working may be experienced. It cannot be ignored, but it is important that appreciable good will its observance becomes as natural as a National holiday and as pleasurable and profitable as the Christmas season. Other states which of course have observed it for a greater number of years, now naturally are able to see evidence of its beneficence. Statistics show that in Maryland and North Carolina, the only two southern states in which the records go back for ten years, the Negro death rate decreased 7.8 and 32.8 per cent respectively; and that in Kentucky and Virginia, in which the records go back for only 5 years, the Negro death rate decreased 4.9 per cent respectively. In other southern states these revoids do not go back as much as five years.
An appreciably lowered death rate is positive in Texas if only this observance become widespread and general.
The week is simply a time set apart in which all organisations and persons interested in better public health seek to reach those who are yet are not thoroughly acquainted with the rules of health and hygienic living, and impress upon them the importance of observing these rules in order to live long and healthy lives.
Healthcare and sunshine should be sought as eagerly so religion. Many of us do not know this. Health Week would teach it.
Monday is hygiene day, when personal and community hygiene education and venseal disease control considered. Tuesday is "Swat the Fit" day, on which the spread of disease and the advantages of serving will be explained. Wednesday is taberculeous day, when fresh attention is called to the fact that the disease is not hereditary and that treatment should be begun early. Thursday is children's day and will be given to stories of health etudes and cleaning up measures: parents will be invited to attend the school. Sunday is closed to cleaning and church, and to putting to let's into a sanitary condition. Saturday will be general day.
Every person and every agent y
purking an ant. Negroes in Texas
have been laboring in the
a few of this week. The in-
vestment of time and labor in it will
be productive of abundant benefit.
The course an attention looks
like was but it will hardly live up
to its looks. It takes more to
carry one man and they all are
dead broke.
VOTE INTELLIGENTLY.
Early next week a new City Administration is to be chosen by Dallas voters. The campaign has not been lengthy and it probably has lacked some of the vigor and enthusiasm of former campaigns. But it offers to every voter the same opportunity for the intelligent use of his suffrage as any other campaign has. In so far as the Negro voter is concerned, this circumstance is probably very fortunate in that it gives to him chance to study dispassionately the issues involved and the platforms presented and decide for himself which candidates he will support. In this case his mind will not be confused by the much speaking and not campaigning, in which former years have characterized local campaigns.
Intelligent voting is one of the most important qualifications of the good citizen. One of the most hurtful of the criticisms launched at us as a group is that we do not vote intelligently—that we do not fully appreciate the importance of holding the private sacred and involute; rather, it is claimed, that we will only be able to keep the whole value of the vote follow blindly the dictates of the gutter demagogue and slum leader whose only aim in the campaign is taking care of his own pocket.
Too often this claim comes perilously near being proven by the actions of a great many of us. In fact, often it has been true that the only Negro voters of some cities who exercised their rights in the past have been those who reprobable "benchmen" to vote as "they" have directed many of those not so led have some about their duties and failed to vote.
Intelligent voting follows no such course. Intelligent voters rather listen to the arguments as produced by various candidates, read and study their platforms, as far as is possible, look into their records in order to discover whether their ideas of government are sound and, having obtained these facts, vote as they elect.
As a group, we truly will have made political progress when our voting masses reach the stage of cool calculation and full knowledge of our possibilities. That will be a point at which they will utterly discourage that type of "political leader" so prevalent now, who is heard only at election time and whose voice is rendered sane by the fees that have passed into his pockets. This is a very important aspect of the government. This type must be banished forever from among us and in its stead must come a leader who studies men and platforms and argues for support of men because of their ability to govern and their desire for fair and impartial government.
No candidate can govern all of the people who does not believe in justice before the law to all without regard to race, color or other condition. Constitutional government is a necessity in this country. A determination by the sound means to promote the growth of a city or community is also a necessity.
These things should be the major considerations of every voter who would choose intelligently.
There are 5,000 Negro holders of poll tax receipts in Dallas. It is to be hoped that each of them will cast his vote in this election with what somebody told him but according to his own choice, intelligently made with the best interest of his city in his heart.
A SPECIAL TRAIN TO THE PROMISED LAND
A news dispatch states that last week in Columbia, South Carolina, a crowd of Negroes was found at the railroad station waiting to board a "train of 36 coaches" which was being made up in Florida to carry them to the North where better jobs at higher pay awaited them. No such train appeared. They had been duped.
The incident is pitiful in some of its aspects and ludicrous in others.
But it is worthwhile to note the sort of comment which it evokes from the white press. The Columbia S. C. State under caption of "a Train to the Promised Land" speaks of it thus: "The incident was not evidence of a wish of Negroes to migrate, white people by hundreds would accept a free ride to Detroit, but it was striking evidence of Negro credulity. White people would not have accepted the story without investigating it—every white man or woman would have called at the railroad offices to inquire, if the tale had impressed them as even possible. Observers and students of the "Negro question," especially those who have not lived in the South, should be able to derive from the occurrence some notion of; the measure of intelligence and information that the mass of the Southern Negroes have acquired. Hundreds that the mass of the Southern Negroes have handsome churches for Negroes accepted the idle tale of the train at face value, without inquiry of the only persons who could possibly know about it, the railroad agents, and they kept the train running. Henshaw was sending a flock of airplanes to give them free flying to Detroit, would it have been more than they would have swallowed?
The State is compelled to believe that government in South Carolina would be endangered if the suffrage were not limited by educational and property qualifications. It can not avoid the conclusion that separate accommodations for the races on railroad cars and in stations are necessary when a railroad station is added to such invasion as this one was in Columbia last Thursday. The Negroes meant no harm. They did no more than reveal again something of the nature of the problem that exists where ever they are to be found in great numbers." It is not known definitely how many persons were in that community because of our lack of definite knowledge we will be prone to conclude that there were only a few and that the above observation was made in an attempt to further the belittlement of our people which has been the fashion for so many years. A more serious consideration however gives each of us pause when we realize how far credence would be given to such a rumor when we see that the defending side comes a thorough anger at the system, which for all of our years in America, has kept our masses ignorant and made possible such demeaning contentions. It is, when we realize its enormity, a very discouraging picture, but it is one which we must see in all of its ugliess, often disturbing, but disheartening enough when presented in "true light."
This incident brings to us an ugly picture of ignorance and cruelty and credulity born of lack of opportunity for mental development. But in consideration of it and the comment which is provoked it is only fair to say that South Carolina which has numbered them among its inhabitants for as many years as they are old may take pride in their ignorance which has resulted from poor schools—until recent years almost no schools—but who in Texas have little but do not. And it is our determination, as deep as posted as is belief in (6) his life, if that another generation will mark a radical change in that condition. And anyway, ugly pictures are useful in so far as they show true conditions, the knowledge of which gives ample opportunity for work toward improvement.
Congressman Dyre promises to re-introduce his Anti-Lynching Bill at the next Congress. A fine idea. It is probable that anee that time will be nearer another campaign year its chances of stalwart Republican backing will be better.
It is reported that a man on being shown the statistics or church property owned by Negro's said "What a fine accomplishment for a race in fifty years. But it is a shame that they have not spent more time and energy in developing business concerns which would render the upkeep of the churches mre nearly possible." That man was right. It will be a biceased time our pastors and our people learn that church members who average only $20 per week per family can't well build and support

FEDERAL ACTION AGAINST MOBS.

Presumably the state put forward of evidence. The story of that Herrin action against tyrching a new and to mob murders of every sort, to the daylight by a crowd of frenzied strike dismay by a masked band under cover of Negroes.

The objection of course is that it again a power that ought to stay with the sentiment is seething toward the fede* the current is for the states to give the tions of their will and ability to apprehend.—Boston Herald.
The second trial at Herrin is now under way. The outcome of the first was distinctly disbarring but not unexpected. There are no reasons in sight for expecting a different result this time. The same facts are to be need, the same parties are to conduct the case, the spirit of the community is the same. Presumably the state put forward its strongest presentation of evidence. The story of that Herrin trial gives those who favor federal action against lynching a new and powerful argument, only it applies to mob murders of every sort, to the murder of strikebreakers in broad daylight by a crowd of frenzied strikers, to the slaying of citizens of Louisiana by a masked band under cover of night, as well as to the lynching of Negroes. The trouble in such a place as Herrin is to get a jury that will convict. Often enough it is impossible to find a local man with the pluck to serve as prosecutor. Small communities, and sometimes communities of size cower before a mob. On these grounds Collier's Weekly declares for a federal law to cover mob murders of all sorts. The argument is strong. The objection of course is that it would take over for Washington again a power that ought to stay with the several states. Nevertheless public sentiment is setting toward the federal plan, and the only way to turn the current is for the states to give the nation some outstanding illustrations of their will and ability to apprehend such murderers and punish them.—Boston Herald.
STAY AWAY FROM IT.
States Senate, at the request of the South, northern sentiment, passed the Black Man to see are rising in Washington even the white people of this country entail. The monument is to be dedicated as to an insult to the type of Negro who insult the insult is to refuse to participate in unveiling or the dedication of the shaft we say this? We recall how opposed it. Reasons were given by the leading men joined the women, but to no avail, but the Senate paid no attention to the South its monument. And republication to erect an insulting shaft to the South its monument. But the South wanted it.
publican the country remember how arden the country—the whole law—a law孪ching? We wanted that so much! articles, made addresses, and—even prism was defeated. The South did not want publican the country sat and latened to a succession as dead.
publican the filibuster the Mammies Monument which be denied the pleasure and privileges of our publican the country. But our publican the insult is forced upon us and we shall insist in spreading the sermon to the WORLD about the monumen truth be told. The whole truth is the insult to the progressive of the screen to the outside world. To the war we drove for the Negro, erected the monumen is and service. To the Negro, the monumen is the exact place the Negro is to occupy and servility will be written all over the builders are true to the our insult.
the Negroes of this country can do justice to the memory of our old monumental service they performed; the only can and will do, is to remain away and forever. We ought to instruct our away from the insulting shaft as we will attend the unveiling, nor shall we live at the dedication. Negro will耐 nor shall we live at the dedication. Deviates that we stay away. The tell us to stay away. We shall stay away.
The United States Senate, at the request of the South, and under the pressure of southern sentiment, passed the Black Mammies Monument Bill, and soon we are to see rising in Washington evidence of the real idea and conception the white people of this country entertain toward the American Negro. The monument is to be dedicated to the type of Negro who WAS; and as an insult to the type of Negro who IS. The only rebuke we can offer the insult is to refuse to participate in any way with the erection, the unveiling or the dedication of the shaft.
And why do we say that? We recall how opposition to the Negro were to the monument. Reasons for this were Negro women of this generation the women, but to no avail. The editors joined the opposition, but the Senate paid no attention to the opposition, and simply gave the South its monument. And republicans supported the South in its ambition to erect an insulting shaft to the Negro of today. The Senate knew we did not want the monument. But the Bill went over with a bang. The South wanted it.
Do our republican members remember how ardently we beseeched them to give to the South what whole country—a law preventing not violating their writing? We wanted that law so much. We sent letters, wrote articles, made addresses, and—even prayed that the Bill might pass. It was defeated. The South did not want it and it failed. Our republican members sat and latened to a successful filibuster until the Dyer Bill was dead.
Did any republican filibuster the Mammies Monument Bill? We asked that the South be denied the pleasure and proof of insulting the sons and daughters of the South. But our republican members the South and the insult is forced upon us.
All we ask, and we shall insist in spreading the intelligence, when this country begins to tell the WORLD about the monument to Negroes, is that the whole truth be told. The whole truth is that the monument was erected as an insult to the progressive NEGRO of the present age, as well as a smoke screen to the outside world. To the world, this country out of its deep love service. To the Negro, a special monument to this deep love service. To the Negro, the monument is to be a lasting reminder of the exact place the Negro is to occupy in this country. Serves, servants, and servility will be written all over the foundation stones of the shaft, if the builders are true to the purpose of those responsible for the insult.
The only thing, the Negroes of this country can do; the only thing we ought to do in justice to the memory of our old mothers, who were forced into the mental service they performed; the only thing any self-respecting Negro can do is to stand forth and forever. We ought to instruct our people that our race is to remain away from the insulting shaft as we would from a serpent. We shall not attend the unveiling, nor shall we lift our voice in any ceremonies held at the dedication.
No self-respecting Negro will speak at the demonstration. No self-respecting Negro will aid or assist or encourage in the erection of such an insult to our on-coming generations. Our only duty is to stay away. Pride dictates that we stay away. The souls of our deprived mammals tell us to stay away. We shall not stay.—Pittsburgh Courier.

The South makes three gestures of utter despair. The first is her determination to have engraved upon the face of Stone Mountain, near Atlanta, a colloidal picture "commemorating the lost cause of David and Lee; the second is her insistence upon having a monument at Washington to the "Black Mammy" and the third is, in South Carolina, a decision to pay pensions to "fairful Negroes who stood by their masters during the Civil War.
What of the first?
Let her have it. The poor old lady was dealt an unmerciful hard blow when Lincoln's friezes the slaves made it imperative that she apply her soft white hands to mental tasks, bend her delicate body in a semi-tropical sun to pick the cotton her slaves once had picked.
If now, after 60 years of heartbreaking retrospection, the gentle Old ceremonies held at the dedication.
Lady South desires a mountain made into a monument as a reminder of a buried past, let her have it.
And the second?
After all, she is an old fool! Yes, the Old Lady South has thought, lived, glorified in the past so that she is as a sleepwalker stumbling as she goes an uncertain way. Perhaps, so, this very fact accounts for her many incest instances. Here she is planning a marriage to a woman she has never seen before in life, children she treats shamefully, whose memory she herself deserves in song and story.
Of course it is fashionable that certain white folk should have been nursed by "black mammoth"; it is the duty of most southern born white speakers before black audences to begin with: "Yes, I understand you people. I was raised by a dear-old mammoth... it is fitting that I am raised by a fair-daughters today wear 'mammoth' bandana as the latest vogue but—
"Mammoth" and grandsons are poised on southern plantations; are disfranchised; are晶 clubmed on public carriers; are maltreated, lynched, and—all because they are the offspring of 'Black Mammoth'.
Now sentimental Old Lady South must needs erect a monument! Finally what of the third gesture?
Finally, what of the third gesture? delayed justice in pensioning those few remaining ex-slaves who protected delayed justice in pensioning those few remaining exslaves who protected the homes and women of Confederates who fought to keep them slaves. These men did as much—did it honorably—to prevent an easy victory for the Confederates. They are Confederate slaves. They could be pensioned. They should have been pensioned long ago. They are as deserving of it as the Confederate veterans are, and certainly of them are just as much in need of it.
And yet these three schemes are merely gestures of despair. The Old Lady South, temperamental and sentimental old fool, eratic and inconsistent, dwells in the land and days that died decades ago. She feels no obligation to permit her Negro children equal educational opportunity, equal rights at the polls, equal accompaniment on public carriers, equal treatment before courts of so-called justice; but she does not be obligated to memorize the "Black Mammy" who left this "problem" on her hands; she does not be obligated to memorize the "White Mammy" who lifte a life beast of burden, and useful because profiler, to make a mountain into a monument in order, to keep alive memories of a vain and impossible cause.

LOW WAGES MEAN BIG INFANT DEATH RATE, U. S. SHOWS.
Mortality is Twice as Great as Normal When Mothers Must Work.
Report Proves. Most Colored Mothers Work—U. S. Report Shows Why Infant Mortality is Great Again.
"That the low earnings of the father bear the principal responsibility in the death of the mother is shown by the mark contrast between the severe inconvenience caused to the importance of mothers employed. Of the months in families in which the father earned less than $400, 292 percent were gainfully employed away from home during pregnancy, who were more likely to die."
(Crusader Service)
Washington, March 26—Additional evidence that the employment of women in the homes, particularly from their homes, medically preceding confinement, or during the infant's first year of life is influenced by the child's health is induced by the Children's Bureau of the Department of Labor in a report about to be made public. The material has been gathered as the result of a year's study of the conditions surrounding maternal and infant care over a half million people. The report will state in part: "The prevalence of during pregnancy was found to be associated with a markedly high stillbirth rate, a high rate of premature births, and a high mortality from causes such as early infancy, causes when the mother is not healthy of the mother before birth." Starling figures are given regarding the births, premature births and infant mortality, as between women engaged in industrial pursuits and
The mortality rate during the first year was 77.3 per 1,000 among the babies of mothers employed from home, or nearly twice the rate of mothers who were not so employed.
The report continues:
The employment of the mother to care for an infant confinement also appears to be a factor in the infant mortality rate. The mortality rate of babies in this study whose mothers were employed away from home during the first year found to be one and one-half times the rate among babies of mothers employed by the infant system development, the report goes on to indicate that the entire infant system

EASTER ORIGIN
By Rev. N. W. Norsworthy, D. D., Easter, the day on which the Christian Church commemorates our Saviour's Resurrection.
Easter is a word of Saxon origin and imports a goddess of the East. This goddess was Astarte, in honor of whom sacrifices were annually offered about the pass-over time the Saxon name "Easter" became attached by association of ideas to the Christian festival of the Resurrection. (The Eastern church celebrated Easter on the day on which the Jews kept the pass-over—the Western on Sunday, The council of Nice, A. D. 325, ordained that J. should be kept everywhere on one and the same day, and that on Sunday next after the full moon that came on or immediately after the vernal equinox, provided that when that moon was full on Sunday, Easter should be the Sunday after. Thus it never could be coincident with the passover.
At this rule* is not in the Nicolecanon, Dr. Waterland suggests that the baptism of the custom of the quart-desimais, and ordered the observance to be always on Sunday—the day to be baptized. The baptism of drinna. However that may be, the foregoing rule has ever since governed the catechumenate. The dress was except in a few churchs. Easter was observed as a joyous festival at catechumenate. A memorial dressed in a well-dressed woman immediately led the Lord's supper was administered with great solemnity—alma were liberated. The day before Easter was called Sabatium Magnum, the great Sabath—in its observance was perpetuated. The bath was discontinued. It was kept on a solemn fast, and by a nocturnal assembly called the Easter Vigil).
FOUR HUNDRED NEGRO GIRLS
REACH PARIS FROM WEST
INDIES
Paris, March 23—France's servant problem has reached such a crisis that one of the philanthropists who came to Paris from Martineau and Gaudieu to work in French houses, the French women, and the females, wearing red bandanas around their heads and enveloped in bright clothing, came to St. Nazaire this morning, and were taken directly to the home of the servant, who has distributed throughout France.
"That the low earnings of the father bear the principal responsibility of the employment of the mother is shown by the marked contrast between the severe income groups in respect to the proportion of mothers employed. Of the mother in families in which the father's earnings are less than $450, 23.2 per cent were gainfully employed away from home during pregnancy, while only 1.2 per cent of the mothers in families in which the father's earnings were $1,250 or over were so employed at that period."
"The contrast is equally striking in the case of employment following the birth. Of the mothers in homes in which the father's earnings were less than $450, 22.1 per cent were gainfully employed away from home during the infant's first year of life, as compared with only 6.1 per cent of the mothers in homes in which the father's earnings were $1,250 or over. The greater prevalence of mothers' employment in the low income groups is evidently a factor in the high infant mortality rate which characterizes families with low income."
Previous reports of the Children's Bureau on infant mortality have shown that the infant mortality and infant mortality. As the income increases the infant death rate decreases. This study, which is based on the results of a larger group than the previous studies and permits a closer analysis of the single factor of employment.

"Don't Let The Campaign Fail"—J. P. Starks, a few days before his death.
TO THE LOCAL LODGES AND HOUSEHOLDS OF RUTH OF THE GRAND UNITED
ORDER OF ODD FELLOWS. Jurisdiction of Texas.
GREETING:—Brother Starks, our Grand Secretary is dead. He was laid to rest with the highest honors that his lodge, his church, and his friends could confer. We did our best on that sad occasion to show our deep sympathy and high appreciation of the man. But you know how weak our words and futile our acts are at times like these. At best we can only indicate what our hearts feel.
We loved him much, so we suffered much in the great loss we sustained in his death.
But what would Brother Starks have us do now? Certainly he would not have us continue to mourn.
Like every good and brave soldier, who falls in battle, his chief desire is that his surviving comrades—"Carry On."
"It looks like death, but while you have breath.
Carry On! My Comrades, Carry On!
Brother Starks had one great hobby that lay close to his heart—it was ODD FELLOWSHIP. At the time of his death he was in charge of our Membership Campaign. I have been asked by the Executive Committee to take over this work and carry it to completion. If I had not meant to do my best I should have refused. Yet I know that doing my best will not make it a success unless I have the whole-hearted support of the membership.
In a communication to his office force, a few days before his death, Brother Starks wrote—"Don't let the campaign fail." We are handing this down the line. We want each member to repeat it every day.
"Don't Let the Campaign Fail." Repeat it till it becomes one mighty shout. "DON'T LET THE CAMPAIGN FAIL."
From now until July 31, this will be know as the "STARKS MEMORIAL CAMPAIGN," We are asking the local lodges and Households for ONE THOUSAND accepted members per month. The rules governing the campaign will be the same as now in force. I am going to believe you are going to do it till you fail.
I am asking each Supervisor, each P. S. and W. R. to write me telling me what to expect from your lodge or Household.

Kansas City Monarchs Class of National Negro League defeated the Atlanta Hawks at afternoon by a score of 10 to 3.
It was the first tilt of the training season and the going furnished the team. It was interesting to see in action that monarchs out-fit, the Kansas City Monarchs perform and pull the team to a slow, slow, slow, owing to the absence of Bobby Sloan, the donghurt outfielder who is rated as one of the best in the league. The game would have changed the scores.

AN EXPRESSION OF FOND
NESS FOR PROFESSOR
J. P. STARKS.
If I tried to express my grief
rally over the death of Prof. J. P.
Saunders, I would have been afraid.
If I tried to explain the deep pain
that envelopes my being, my effort
would be in vain; if I tried to say
that I was afraid of the pain on
one of my most sincere friends
I could not, for it is the first real
grief that has ever come to me
and told me that he was sextually ill; in
main, I wish I could have written
my grief. I wish I could have written
my grief I could have written him that
I wished him a speedy recovery;
in vain, I regretted that I didn't know
him. I regretted that I didn't know
paradise prepared for souls such as
his—all in vain—and sadest of
him. He was a father, a father,
the only father person I ever knew.
When a woe toot, in St. James Sun-
ner, I was afraid of his future,
and aided my every effort
till I was grown—my first
musical instrument was a small or-
gan, and I was afraid of the
summer months, for in school
time it had to go back to dear old
man; now I Douglas learned
my new piano.
It was he who caused me to get a full education—could I ever forget it? Normal. Normal. the morning he put me on the train left me in care of a porter, who was a good little girl at school and study hard for you know what you've got to do." That was in 1903.
Well, I did study hard, graduated with honors, and when I came home I never widowed his father; pro

time I was five years old till I left Dallas for Chicago in 1909. So fatherly was his interest in my welfare that every one spoke to me of him as "your daddy." How happy I was when in 1920 I was able to return to Dallas. I was fonds especially to my daddy. How glad I was when I heard his voice over the "phone say, Bert, my daughter, I'll be right over to see you." And when he came to Mrs. L. A. Mason's to see me how glad I was to see my benefactor again to tell him how greatly I appreciated all he had done for me, how I had not disappointed him when he prophesied, "a worthy woman that kid will make." A few days ago, I started reviewing, studying the app for position here in the N. Y. P. Schools and I thought of "my daddy"—if he knew and could help me get appointed he would—so I resolved to write him. [The door bell rang, the "Express" was left there at the door, I opened it. At a glance I saw—oh, my heart stood still! The funeral ceremonies of "my daddy!" If I had only been present! I shall enter the examination and know that I shall meet with some degree of success, for Prof. J. P. Stark saw I received the education that would benefit me through life.
To the bereaved family I extend deepest and most sincere sorrow. To the bereaved share their grief, words fail me!
Sleep on, thou beautiful soul, Rest, rest in the arms of Jesus For the bereaved a life so full of noble deed... Even tho' you have gone to Heaven you are still a father to me and in love and loving memory... "My Daddy," Rest, rest in beautiful soul, we sleep in Daddy's memory A testimonial tribute his memory for just one of his many, many good sorrowfully, Bertha Wheeler-Des Verney.

New York, March 24—Resenting the storm of disapproval evoked from many ministers throughout the country, the congregation contained in his article in *Cary Messenger* in which he disliked the funeral of the funeral of Christians, Dean Pickens proclaims the coming of a new era for forthcoming use of the magasin.
The Dean is not alone in this view is proved by the state the Messenger, in the March address in which the body, state that Mr. Owen, whose service is now more new and general than that of Prof. Pickens will soon start to speak on its *Salvation Realty* as one of many radical anti-Sects. Prescarch have announced their intention to deny their churches to more even drastic action will be against Owen, who, curiously, has been on his Western speaking tour this Spring. Owen who is reported in circles in New York is noted for his extreme views in opposition and all forms of rebelled violence.

FIGHT WILL OF WHITE FATHER LEAVING FORTUNE TO COLORED DAUGHER.
(Cruzador Service)
Charleston, W. Va., March 23—legal proceedings to set aside the will of Roman Pickens, antecedent since it was probated, have been in effect. The will was a bitter fight in prospect for the large estate left by the decem- bore to his daughter "outside the law."
Pickens, once sheariff of this Kawanah county and piquereau fjeldman county, quashed his asking宅 to Garret Pickens, locally known and generally accepted as his daughter by a Colored household.
The will gave the entire estate to $299,000, to Miss Garret, with directions that she "treat with love and affection," the lawful widow burye E. Pickens (white), with life time. It also directed that she "well and comforte" provide for her, "the servant" during her time.
Much commonense advice was conveyed to the horrors of a beautiful country, a majority, by the document. It directs her to consult with experienced landowners her nurse to sign or denounce any notes, and war her that she will be the object of the benefitary is also commanded not to sell any of the real estate until she is the real property, located in the city and in the farming sections of the country, counting counties, and increasing in importance.
H. P. Brightwell, city treasurer and vice president of a local trust director, was named administrator by the will and other prominent officials of the game institution were appointed appraisers by the trust director.
Race companions of Kayes had turned the car in which they were riding and started toward the city. As they drove past the scene of the crash, the driver of the running board and the trio drove rapidly from the place.
Miss Pickles has had little or no association with other members of the family, rather than her mother, with whom she spent much of her father on a farm at Tortoise, about 18 miles up Coal River in North Carolina, where she is no longer colored school; and her father being averse to "too close" contact. Her lovely innesty has, she said, the advantage of only what little her parents and an occa-

Wade of Copper Hill, the white man who cut Glauce Dickey resulting in his death, came to East Eatow, Sunday from Copper Hill, Teen, a mining section just south of the town, wholly by whites. The little place has been noted for years due to the hostility of the natives toward the whites in the town of Copper Hill and it is stated that it is unsafe for Negroes to even pass through the town lest they are attacked by whites.

REFUSAL TO FURNISH "NIGGER" WOMEN RESULTS IN KILLING.
Eitowah, Tenn., March 23—Glaude "Steel Arm" Dickey, well known throughout the southland as a base ball pitcher of excellent ability, died on April 16. He was wounded in the neck, inflicted by Waldo Young, young white man of African descent. Hillman, the affair which resulted in the death of Dickey and the rough handling of several witnesses to the affair, was killed in the gro section of the town and several miles from the main part of the town.
According to the statements of several witnesses to the affair, Keyes and two other white men drove to the Negro section in a Ford automobile early Sunday afternoon and appeared on the streets in a boisterous and drunken manner. Keyes is said to have stepped from the car and approached a group of Colored boys with the request that they direct him and his companions to the home of "some nigger women." The young Colored men resented the proposition of the drunken white man and proceeded to pelt him with bricks. Claude Dickey, who has the reputation of being peaceful and law abiding, was standing several blocks away and noticing the disturbance, proceeded to the scene and discouraged further violence on the part of the Colored men. He approached Keyes who was staggering away under the influence of liquor and advised him to leave the section and thus prevent further trouble. He was assisting Keyes to the car where his other two companions were waiting when the white men suddenly pulled long knife and plunged in the koen blade into the neck of Dickey. In-flicting a_gash that severed the jugular vein and causing death a short time after.
