Aids Prosecutions Of White Rapists New York, Sept. 9—The Nashville, Tennessee, Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Resolved People through its president, J. A. Martin, reports contributing $750.00 for the employment of special attorney to prosecute two white men charged with brutally assaulting two colored women near Murfreesboro Tenn. The trial resulted in a mistrial, 8 jurors being for conviction and 4 for acquittal, according to Mr. Martin, who states that the rapists are still in jail and their case is to come up again in October. The white men, Elgin Lewis and Aubrey Payne, taxi drivers are charged with trailing the two colored women in an auto mobile, representing themselves as state police officers and "arresting" them on a country road and then committing brutal assaults upon them. Both of the colored women victims of the attack are married.

For the coming Sunday, Sept. 18th, a unique service has been planned for. For the eleventh o'clock hour a pulpit and will use a project "Things That Are Near." For the evening service, eight p.m., we invite the entire city, especially those whose minds are tending towards progress. The Honorable John L Webb, one of our honored deacons, will enlighten us, as he unravels the subject "What I Learned From Abroad." It will be well for the friends to understand that this is not a citation of things seen or geographical things passed over, but observations and lessons learned by one of our most outstanding and upstanding and respected race leaders. The city will do well to turn out en masse to learn from his own lips the lessons and things of benefit that derived from his trip abroad. Good music will be the order of the day for both services. Sunday School and B.Y.P.U. will be at their regular hours, 9:30 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. respectively. On Thursday evening the 22nd of all the members of the choir will urged to be.

"The education of two distinct races so they may properly adjust themselves to the social and economic conditions in a democracy involves more than the instruction ordinarily offered in our schools and colleges. The active enlistment of all facets, both in the schools to outworking for the taking a more challenge offers such a statistic, as that to our democorwise socia adjust of making snopes and asprations or ut legro and the ideas, traditions and standards o the white population of the Southern States." Doctor Shinn believes the ingro and white people are understand each other better, that leaders of both races are cooperating, and that development of agricultural education, in particular, is making a worthwhile contribution toward improved relations. Negro agricultural colleges, the Smith-Hughes vocational schools, and the extension service are the three agencies primarily, engaged in agricultural education. The work of the three is interrelated. Each of the Southern States has an educational college for Negro students, which with Hampton and Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institutes render valuable service in training teachers and other leaders. In the past the quality of instruction in the Negro colleges has been hampered by financial weakness but is now improving. The Smith-Hughes schools have helped the colleges as has the extension work in agriculture in creating desirable openings for students as teachers and leaders. ```markdown ``` Negro Puhcart Man "Puts something.

Jackson, Messrs. John Kail James Jackson, Charles Eccles, Ernest Bell of Chicago, Miss Mary F. Young of Helena,irk Everyone expressed themselves as having had a most enjoyable evening. The number of federally aided all-day Negro agricultural schools has increased from 89 in 1917-18 to 254 in 1924-25 and the enrollment from 1,025 to 6,374, but this represents only a fraction over 4 per cent of the 146,000 Negro farm boys between the ages of 14 and 20 attending school. The first Negro extension agent in the South was appointed in 1904. In 1923 the number had grown to 294, and the work is assisted by white extension agents in the territory, a cooperation "which is exerting considerable influence in problems of racial adjustment." The demonstrations are planned for simplicity and local interest and seek to carry the lessons to Negro farmers and their families, "to instruct them in better farm practices, to help them increase their earning and to improve their homes and living conditions." In 1926, 32,000 Negro boys were enrolled in club work. "There is no doubt," Dr. Shim reported, "that the extension work conducted by efficient Negro agents has had considerable influence in checking the movement of Negro farmers to the cities." The teachers were reminded of a study made by the Department of Agriculture among Georgia farmers indicating the value of education on the farm, which showed that farmers in Georgia with no schooling had an average annual earning capacity of only $240 as compared with $664 and $1,254 for farmers with high school and agricultural college education. In the South since 1900, Dr. Shinn said, population has increased 44.7 per cent, wealth, 346.4 per cent and public school expenditures 941 per cent. The annual expenditure for Negro education in 1926 was $8,700,000. Godfey Wins Frnm Mente Munn.

PROGRESSIVE CITIZEN "He is not only one of the best business men of his race, but one of the best business men in this town." This was an openly expressed opinion made by a head of one of the largest corporations in this section, regarding Lucius Wilson of the Wilson Cafe, the man of "Teil 'Em 'Bout Me" fame. We were glad to hear this expression concerning a member of our people for it really concerns us all. It is well that we have some men among us of whom such opinion is held. We know something of Mr. Wilson's business ability; in fact we know considerable. Twice have we seen him start out with practically no capital and capitalize his personality to the point of accumulating a business worth thousands. He is a business leader, his place is a leadin Number 38 CITY NOTES With Hot Springs experiencing the dullest season, it was gratifying to note with what ready response in the way of attendance and patronage, the first public effort essayed by the Colored Branch of the Garland County Chapter of the Red Cross was met. The charity ball at Whittington Park, Wednesday night gave evidence or public interest in the great work of charity fostered by the Colored Red Cross Chapter of which our esteemed fellow-citizen, D. E. A. Kendall is the honored and efficient president. The very spendid work done by Mesdames Kendall, Cain, Cage, Johason, Rife, Father Mitchell, Mr. Lucius Wilson and many others, is to be highly commended. The branch chapter gives much promise of growing into a very strong and useful organization. Arriving in the city last Monday night, the Hon. John L. Webb, Supreme Custodian of W. O. U. had opportunity to spend only one night at home before being called to St. Louis, Mo., leaving on the following morning. His broad business interests and personal convictions made of him one of the busiest men of the South. He arrived home again Thursday morning, remaining throughout the week. Mr. and Mrs. Timothy D. Cain and Mr. and Mrs. Edward Brown left on motor trips to Chicago and Bloww will witness the Dempsey—Tunney fight and the ladies will socialize and shop. They plan to visit Detroit and other big centers, returning via St. Louis where Mr. Cain will do his fall buying of jewelry, trunks, bags and the various goods and sundries for which his select establishment is noted.

Neuro Commits Suicide It is very seldom that a member of the Negro race commits suicide and when one really does by his own hands, shuffle off this mortal coil, he is regarded by member of his race, as having been no compos mentis; loco or just in—fool. But the case of Frank Mayo, a Negro at Via Okla. seems to have been different. On Sept. 12, Mayo committed suicide Before committing the act of self destruction he left a nose giving his wife a st of his creditors. If he left anything else, the county attorne who investigated his case, does not state. business.

DESCRIPTIONS MUST: BE PAID IN ADVANCE Owning and paying taxes on hundreds, thousands of dollars worth of real estate; owning and operating banks and other big financial institutions and then having helpe to build the great city of Memphis, (Tenn.) Negro citizens feel that they are perfectly within their rights when they ask for their race and people, a few pett, police officers and firemen, (especially in Negro neighborhoods) and a right walk about and look at the beautiful grass in the city parks, for the building, beautifying and maintenance of which they have been forced to pay taxes. In fact they pay taxes to the pension fund of Confederate veterans, some, former slaveholders, and others who fought that Negroes might not be free, and taxes on anything and every thing under the law, but the big city of Memphis and its Mayor, who is running for reelection, feel that it is presumptuous on the part of a Negro to entertain the idea of even holding such a job as dog catcher or keeper of the city pound; in fact it seems to be the idea that there is but one city job to which a Negro should aspire and that job is "Custodian of the Cuspidors." But regardless of what the mayor of Memphis, and those who think like him, think, Negroes of Memphis, that a few petty places and rights and are going to vote according to their convictions. Perhaps the present favor will be defeated. it is flap, even follow, per Negroes might not get a petty police officer or two, and the right Purses, but at the city owned least have shown a little manhood and conveyed the idea of what they are thinking about and what they know they very justly deserve. The Negroes of Memphis will let the mayor of Memphis rave and rant over these things and then they will vote against this mayor of Memphis. In the St. Louis Times, issue of Tuesday Sept. 13, it would be good for every thinking Negro to read an article by the needy Henry L. Mencken on Negro Needs to Deliver Seals from Exploitation of Frauds and Mousetakes therein lies much for thought. No attempt will be made on our part to discuss Mr. Mencken's opinions and criticisms of the Negro as a race. Many will criticize Mencken, but real thinkers will see in most of what he says, the "stark naked truth." Mencken is not an enemy to the Negro, but rather a friend, for it is the friend who tells us of our faults and failings—not with burlesque, but in kindly straight forward, but brutally plain fashion. One criticism of the Negro Mr. Mencken left out, and that is, Negroes put great stress upon what a white man says even if he only says what Negroes have already said times without number. This is a peculiar complex but true. Mencken is a great sociological surgeon; he probes deeply and understandingly. He is WHITE and by virtue of so being, he will, because of the Negro's peculiar complex aforementioned be read after by Negroes generally, and we believe that they will gain great profit from such reading. switch open and this act of ignrance or forgetfulness caused the wreck, loss of two live and great financial damage.

Pearson, Capt It is quite a big thing to build for yourself a very fine home and to feel great pride in saying to your friends, "come in." It is also a pretty nice thing to use your change in constructing a little house here and that which will say to you, "income." There is quite a difference between "come in" and "income," but there every man has his choice. Following a special request that they sing for the entertainment of Secretary Herbert Hoover who was a visitor to Bett Springs Sunday and Monday, the Haven M. E. choir was conveyed to the club, house on Lake Catherine last Sunday evening and thoroughly charmed the distinguished Secretary of Com., ex-Governor Neff of Texas, Governor Martineau of Arkansas. The Hon. Harvey C. Couch, Col. John R. Fordyce and other nationally known notables. Several famed Negro spirituals were sung, as usual the "Swing Low Sweet Chariot" classic being the favorite. The distinguished listeners expressed appreciation of the songfest, Mr. Hoover being especially fond of Negro singing, much of which he has listened to in the fields South. In fact it seems that such music, invariably sung in minor key, combining all of the elements of pathos and subtle appeal, strikes responsive chord in the soul of the great secretary, whom flood sufferers have already come to regard as the "Savior of the South." Perhaps it was a case of reckless or bad driving and then a matter of forgetfulness following which caused the wreck of a Frisco Passenger and the loss of two lives, near Paris, Texas., Sept. 12, but it is being called a case of murder under the law and 3 Negroes are now facing this sinister charge with possibility of hanging and at least the certainty of prison sentences. The three Negroes were driving a truck and ran their machine into a railroad switch stand and blocked it. Instead of repoding the matter (through fear perhaps) to competent railroad authorities the Negroes made effort to repair the damage and did not do an effective job.
