California Voters Cast Heavy Ballot In Late Election
Los Angeles, Cal.—(ANP)-Pollers more votes than at any previous state are accredited with the state can seat one-third of the votes in the recent presidential election.

cause they were non-residents of the county.
Law Ineffective
"And so it comes to pass that in that district, as in many others, the teachers have the opportunity, and that, too, in defiance of the law. The present laws seem to require that district officers to provide school facilities for Negro children. In this and other cases, one certain state funds forfeiture by non-compliance with the law. They require the amount forfeited in less than the amount required to support, a Negro institution. It was indeed depressing to see that group of children literally growing up in ignorance, but that they had hundreds, in fact, thousands in like situations. This instance of denial of training if it were not so typical.
Emphatic Injustice
"As if to make emphatic the injustice of the case, in an adjoining district a school has been upheld each time it has been accused of violating it. It is true that the lone white boy has as great a claim upon Missouri for the violation of white children in the state. It is also true that that group of Negro children has as great a claim upon Missouri for the violation of white children in the state. It is also true that the four-fifth-general assembly passed a bill (HB168) which was killed in committee to safeguard against such a situation. It is hoped that those Missourians who believe in racial and educational fairness will support the assembly will enact this, or a similar bill into law and thus guarantee equal educational opportunity to children regardless of race or habitat.

BY ALICE DUNBAR NELSON
(For The Associated Negro Press)
The best place for internationalism to begin is with the children. They can be held to their children open-mindedness, and not tampered with, and bittersweet, there will be a sense of national policing or embitting.
Something of this sort was the wry tale of the Durham School of Philadelphia, a school founded by Armistice Day, invitations to sundies of the school to attend an international Tea Party.
To sing with us, to lunch with us, to world peace.
We learned from the inside of the invitation, were from the Binney School and the Campbell, the fierce band from Durham, representing twenty-two countries, including the dainty little maiden, the flame and the fierce band from Durham, representing curved darger, and blasting foes.
That matter, so did Syria come be fearful. The youngsters were in their native countries, programing, programs, (about peace), nations, and the play given by the youngsters in the mood of the day, featuring folk dances in native costumes of Holland, Arabia, Switzerland, and Holland.
Then guests were called to the platter table, where the country's name, and a sort of fashion show ensued. the children of the Dura school applauding each representative. After the platform. Afterward there was a lunch served the guests in the dining room of Miss Helen Underhill, the assistant of Miss Helen Underhill, the kind of menu that youngsters like creamed chicken, cocoa, ice cream. The quant of all the fill from the principal were delightful. even some managed well. Some their native language, or shall we call their language of their parents? Afterwards the Americans songs together at the table. And all promised that they, too, at some not too distant time, would rearrange.
Now Durham School has about 1,500 pupils, all colored, and Principal Clarence Whyte and his faculty are all colored, and so is Theodore Penny, the probation officer, who thought of the idea, and so is Mrs. Musserone, a representative of the W. I. L., who helped. But the children are Albanians, or Spanish, or French or English or what not, and the principals of their school are Caucasian, and so is the superintendent of the district. And the children were all very happy with each other, and enjoyed every minute of the time, from the moment they climbed out of the school bus which brought them to Durham School, until they climbed in to return to their school home. And if that isn't REAL interracial work, and a foundation for real world peace and international mindedness—then where can a better one be found?

THE BLACK MAN IN THE WORLD'S LITERATURE

WILLIAM E. BURCHARD DUO-BIS,
AUTHOR, EDITOR,
SOCIOLOGIST, 1868—
William E. Burghardt, Du-Bois was born February 23, 1868, at Great Barrington, Tenn., and his master of arts at Harvard, where he received the degree of bachelor of arts, at Falk University in Nashville, Tenn., and his master of arts at Harvard, where he received the degree of bachelor of philosophy.
He brought for a short period at Wilberforce University and was also for a time an assistant and fellow in the University of Pennsylvania, producing a University of Pennsylvania "The Philadelphia Negro." He hold from 1898 to 1900 the professorship and economic at Atlanta University.
In 1910 Dr. DuBois became the director of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. He has published a one group and a two group of monthly periodical of great interest and good reading, but the opinion of one man and one group has been the articles to leading magazines. The "Atlantic Monthly" and the "World's Work" were brought together in a volume entitled "The Souls of America."
In 1909 was published "John Brown," and the next year "The Quest of the Silver Fleece." His other works
award, whom it honored with an exhibition and studio tea at the South-west Branch of the Y. W. C. A., on Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 10 and 11. Mrs. Waring has added several fine things to her work since the exhibit on Chestnut Street last year. There is "Boy," that wistful little brown rascal in the lumber jacket, whose gaze touches your heart, so full of longing and tenderness it is. And there are the French dolls, vivid, colorful, filled with atmosphere, almost translucent in their quality, as if sunsets were gathering behind their draperies. And there are some new portraits, with that, unerring ability the artist has of seeing behind the masks which we wear and call faces, into the very soul of subject.
The still life is the least satisfactory, but then I am prejudiced against still life, and refuse to see anything good in it at any time—fish and dead animals, and things like that look best from my point of view, in markets.
Mrs. Waring, thank heaven, is not standing still as an artist. Every year she takes a few minutes to faint ascent the ladder of fame. This year, it seems to me, is the quality of brilliant light, of a new auditory experience, of a finer understanding, apparently, as if a delightful emotional experience. The Frogs deserve to be congratulated upon their semi-annual art exhibition. Long may they live and prosper.

RED CROSS SEED PRODUCE CROPS IN FLOOD AREA
Washington, D. C.—(ANP)—Crops of an estimated value of $48,514,162 were grown in seven states in 1927 and 1928 from seed furnished Mississippi Valley flood sufferers by the American Red Cross, according to statistics made public today.
This seed cost $2,600,000 and was distributed as part of the American Red Cross rehabilitation plan in the valley following the disastrous flood of 1927 and the repeated flood conditions in 1928 in the Mississippi river tributaries.
The estimated value of the cotton crop in these seven states, from the seed furnished by the Red Cross, was $21,860,758. Other crops and their estimated value follow: corn, $13,587,018; soy beans, $1,868,385; cowpans, $2,608,149; alfalfa, $2,130,083; oats, $1,031,146; wheat, $757,437; sweet potatoes, $647,539; sugar cane, $852,522; orchards and sauram, $680,361; millet and sudan, $234,666; Irish potatoes, $233,060 and rye, $177,908.
States in which the seed was given and which are covered by those estimated figures are: Arkansas, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri and Tennessee.
The statistics show that the crop value for the year 1927 was $30,609,565 from seed given that year, and $17,704,597 in 1928, when the floods were not so disastrous.
are: "The Dawn of Freedom," Mr. Booker T. Washington and Others, "The Meaning of Progress," "The Training of Black Men," "The Coming of John," "The Passing of the First Born," "Dark Water."
DuBois writes with a style intensely original and beautiful. And of such an interesting personality is this man, who understands the passions of the Negro. He feels their heart beats. And his pleasure in these souls, black souls is his pleasure in life—a paradoxical, irational, mystical intoxication. DuBois' style is cultured. He writes with much care and harmony. His words are sweetly blended, although his sentiments are sometimes vague. His style is original, but pleasing with. He reveals at times too much in details; it is his only artistic fault. He forgets himself in the presence of any object of artistic delight, and lingers elaborately over every incidental feature. But it is not as a story-teller that DuBois is known. His papers on sociology have brought him into prominence. He seems well versed in his subjects, and is not afraid to speak out loud of what he thinks.
Dulbecco cannot be judged by ordinary literary standards. His scarcity of freedom in dealing with matters usual in his writings has wined the approval of some, but not all, whose writings have won the approval. He is one for the social distinction in American life. His special province is manners. He is a master painter, but a master in an art which requires the hold of the mirror up to nature, but holds the mirror up to nature, and only part of nature is reflected.

INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP-3C. The Place of Prayer in Paul's life may most really resemble the character of a man. Paul's prayers explained the power and efficiency of the Christian church of these prayers will give us strength, guidance and peace as we go about life's duties. The prayers he gave to the people he prayed, has characterized the Christian church throughout its history. Paul's Prayer with the Ephesian Elders (Acts 20:36-38). Having met with these elders and prayers, Paul has confined them and set forth their responsibility, he inclined down and prayed with them before going to Jercy. He prayed with them before being awakened him. They all went sore and fell on Paul's neck and blissed him. They all sighted him. They all bowed prayers and weep together, they will definitely work together. They prayed for the Romans (Romans 1:30-1). He thanked God for the world-famed faith (v. 8). The true minister than the knowledge than the knowledge of godmine faith possessed by followers of Christ. He prayed for them continually.
Knowing the far-reaching influence of the church at Rome, he unceasingly must be more widely held. 3. His supreme burden in prayer was for a successful journey to Rome (v. 10). 4. He visited to Rome in order that he might impart some spiritual gift to the believers there and also to receive some spiritual help from the church. 5. He blessed reflex blessing from those to whom he ministers. 11. Paul Praying for the Ephesians. 12. He knowledge concerning Christ (Phr. 1:15-25). 13. He hegued God that the believers at Ephesus might know (1). The hope of their calling. The right of their calling on the part of believers is frequently due to their lack of a true understanding of their calling. The right of their calling on the part of believers will make scandall the lives of believers. 14. The riches of the glory of God's inheritance in the saints. 15. The saint has an inheritance in God, but it is more marvelous that God has an inheritance in the saints. (vv. 19-23). This mighty power was demonstrated in the resurrection of Christ from the dead. The same power was demonstrated in the resurrection of the grave is available for believers.
This prayer was made to God who is the Father of life great family in heaven and in earth. He prayed that the believers might be strengthened in their faith and that the object of being induct by Christ. If Christ is to be entertained, the temple needs the divine strengthening; if Christ will come and abide, Likewise, that they might be rooted and grounded in love (v. 17). This establishment is to be used so that they can be as to prevent them from being turned aside by every wind of doctrine. Also, that they might compete with others in love. Wonder is wonderful in its dimensions—in its depth, breadth, width and height. it transcends human understanding—in its depth, breadth, width and height. It might be filled unto the fullness of God (v. 19). This does not mean that the believer can hold God, but that he can understand infinite resources are at his command.
Immortality
Who does not feel that it would change everything if he believed with it in his immortality? He would supply him with a totally new standard of values. Many things which the world prizes and pursues he would never have, for example, the word neglects would be the objects of his most ardent pursuit—James Staker.

HERBERT HOOVER
The great question that confronted the American electorate was: Hoover or Smith?
On Tuesday, November 6, 1928, the American electors went to the polls, and expressed their preference for president of the United State for another four years.

As the Negro Comes From the Polls!
By KELLY MILLER, Howard University, Washington, D. C.
THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1928
Two weeks ago in the light of expectation, I wrote a release: "As the Negro Goes to the Polls." Now in the light of the aftermath, I am able to indite its supplement, "As the Negro Comes from the Polls." I made three major predictions and gave one ad-monition, all of which have been justified by the recent election. In the first place, I predicted that the Negro vote would be split into two approximately equal divisions; secondly, that Mr. Hoover would be elected by a marginal majority too great to be affected one way or the other by the capacity of the Negro vote; thirdly, that the lily-white program of the "grand old party," though vicious in principle, would be effective in practice. With these thoughts in mind, I admonished the race to exercise prudent modernization in extolling the moral grandure of the Republicans and in anticipation of any great racial advantage that might flow from Mr. Hoover's victory.
I. That the Negro did actually divide his vote between the contesting parties on both sides will claim that by virtue of course partisan advocates on both sides will claim that by virtue of their controlling influence the vast majority of voters in their direction and dictation. The politician must magnify his job in the control of his control. But discounting the ward is always measured in the terms of the number of votes claimed to be under his control. But discounting facts clearly vindicate my pre-condition for a divided electorate. I have pressed by the Negro press and other agencies of public opinion, which in the case of the great cities in which the Negro chiefly resides voted for Governor Smith. Messrs. Rashob and Workman have resisted the vote as substantial as permission of persuasion. A straw vote of 161 students in the district of 520 and the other candidates 671 votes. Protest and inertia were weighted in the balance, and found
II. I stated in my open letter to Mr. Hoover that his majority would probably transcend the capacity of the colored vote to affect. As it turned out, if every qualified Negro voter had voted either for Mr. Hoover or against him, his triumphant victory would have stood just the same in its unshaken security. The president-elect is, therefore, free from political obligation to the Negro vote as an entity. The Negro as a citizen, whether he supported or opposed Mr. Hoover, is entitled to equal consideration before the law, and the race as a whole expects political recognition as constituting a tenth part of the body politic. We can only fall back upon his assurance that in his view, every citizen is entitled to equality of opportunity, without regard to race or faith.
III. Mr. Hoover's drastic policy of eliminating the Negro in order to appease a successful political stroke. I predicted in my open letter that he would vote for the black-white votes in the South as a way for crucifying the Negro's ambition. The Republicans have not only supported the Negro's ambition, but have shattered it into fragment. Virginia, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Texas, and Arkansas are the Republican ranks. All of the border states have reaffirmed their allegiance by unprecedented majorities. Mr. Hoover did not actually carry, give a strong minority vote which promises better luck in the future. Though the black-white flattering, the Negro does not blame Mr. Hoover for his strategy as such, he does not blame the method of his surprizing.
IV. The substitution of lily-white for Democratic control of Southern states forbodes no direct good to the Negro race. The dominant attitude of Texas towards the Negro remains unaltered under whatever political designation it may disguise itself. But the crafty cunning of the Hoover management will be overvuled for the good of the Negro. Though not intentioned this will be the inevitable outcome. The fifteenth amendment is not likely to be enforced by direct action. The triumph of Mr. Hoover by such overwhelming victory pushed that consummation further off than ever. It is no longer necessary to keep the "grand old party" in power. The fourteenth and fifteenth amendments are dead letters indeed, so far as the present purpose of the victorious party is concerned. But two parties under undisputed domination of white men will be built up in every Southern state. We have heard the last word about Negro domination, unless it be the dying gas of the Democratic lost cause. Two competitive white parties will seek votes wherever they can find them.
The Negro exercises the full right of franchise in Maryland, West Virginia because the Republicans of those states love him better than the Democrat, but because both parties find it necessary to succeed. This election has accomplished two notable results—it has split the "solid South" and it has split the "doubled South" and the amendment has been effectively eliminated from the Republican agenda as such, nevertheless the Negro will gain control of the Senate by direct action. The Republican party is entitled to no conscious credit for the shift in things will bring to the Negro. It is but the incidental outcome of a larger policy. Jules Isaac-King is kind by playing his appointed part in consumption of the wondrous plan of salvation. But mucking will never harm him the credit for that beaction.
Those who protested against the incarceration of the two men, whose reserved control may be divided into two parts—those who, like myself, refuse to be incarcerated, and those who openly revolved to the army. Although not has been in vain. Metal police patrols are not affected by political pressure, and are almost at the disposal of the police.
FIRST IN REAL NEWS—PAGE THREE
principles, which cannot be atoned for by triumphant majorities. The value of righteous protest is never lost. If alliance of the Republican party with lily-whites, religious bigots and the Ku Klux Klan was wrong before election, it is wrong now. A race which would stand such hostile attitude without protest or remonstrance would thereby write itself down as being of a cowardly spirit which no manly man or party could respect. The man who does not strike back when struck, merely invites another blow. You must make your grievances known if you would have them remedied. Mr. Hoover and his management must think immeasurably more of the Negro race for manly protest against the ills which they genuinely feel, than if the leaders should stand with Uncle Tom like docility, with complainant acceptance of insult and injury. Mr. Douglass used to say that the man who is whipped easiest is whipped oftenest.
Mr. Hoover has promised the Negro nothing and owes him little from a purely political point of view. We can only rely upon his broad patriotic conception of duty to administer the government with an even hand, without regard to faith or race.
THE ELECTION
By WILLIAM PICKENS (For The Associated Negro Press)
Democrats win big victory!—in Arkansas. Arkansas is exactly the proper atmosphere for the Democratic party. Let them have it!
The best sense ever shown by the rank and file of Negro voters was to contribute to this smashing defeat of that deadly combination of Tammany and the bourbon South. For colored people Tammany is tolerable in New York to tolerable for them as for the white people—but a combination of Tammany and bourbonism in Washington would have been destructive to the Negro's interests. Just think of it! Tammany plus Mississippi—a union of arch-trickery with ancient hate.
Tammany put a pile of money into this campaign. The money persuaded a few Negro leaders but failed utterly to get the vote of the rank and file. All the dirtiest tricks were used; in one community, the people were to hold meeting, where we were to bought out the whole theatre and let the people in free to the regular show, to detract from attendance at the meeting which we were to address. They couldn't out-argue us, so they decided to foul us. They got their name to the showover, for that very city in New Jersey. The state flood against the Democratic candidates.
But in Arkansas and Mississippi, and other monotic empires—harrah for the Democrat!
LIFE SENTENCE FOR NEGRO GIRL IN NEW ORLEANS
New Orleans, La.-(AMP) is penalty of life-improvement and level of by Judge A. D. Henriques against a 15-year-old girl. Mable Downs, who was convicted before him last week for the murder of her lover, Louis Digga, in a restaurant on South Rampart Street, July 7.
After being sentenced and while she was being led from the court room back to the parish prison, the girl at the same time was a breaker for freedom by the girl at Depuis hershiff Joseph Wicks, who is holding her. Now, he was loned on the sheriff's eye, but he managed to subdue her and lead her back to the dock.
The Times-Picayune, one of the leading newspapers in the South, which has made an aggressive fight for one hundred per cent white supremacy, commenting on the sentence, editorially, says in part:
As we understand the law, the trial judge could impose no other秉持态度下的冤假错错。For conviction on first-order order only two penalties are fixed—death by hanging or life imprisonment. The jury's recommendation saved the youthful offender from capital punishment and the alternative sentence followed. When, therefore, we suggest that infliction of such punishment is a fine-year-old girl is�.
In the same year, no reflection or censure of the court is intended or implied.
"We make this suggestion in the book that no fifteen-year-old child has the necessary to commission of the premeditated and cold-blooded murder which legal prosecutors its extreme immunity protects against so dreadful a punishment of a fifteen-year-old child who has been deprived of her primitive instincts and caused she lacked even the measure of discipline and education given the chance to be a victim. "If the fifteen-year-old culprit belonged to the white race, we have no doubt that powerful intercession would have been now. The fact that she happens to be a Negro should not doom her to imprisonment from which her life will be saved, but before the ends of justice can be saved by an injustice to child offenders, she will be found to moderate this belief to a degree consistent both with the safety of society and the modern society as an applied in our juvenile courts."

SAYS ELECTION SHOWS UNEQUAL VOTE STRENGTH
Chicago, Ill.—(ANP).—The recent presidential election showed the extraordinary inequalities in representation of the states in congress and in the electoral college very clearly according to an analysis of the votes polled, made by Arthur Sears Hening, white syndicate writer and feature writer for the Chicago Tribune. According to this analysis thirteen states have 65 more and 24 have 66 fewer votes in congress and in the electoral college than would be the case were representation therein based on the popular vote instead of on population. Those having too many representatives are chiefly Southern states, where Negroes are virtually disfranchised, including Texas with ten excess representatives, Georgia 9, Mississippi, South Carolina, and Virginia 6, Alabama 7, North Carolina 3, and Florida 1.
“All this” declares the writer, means that a vote in one part of the country, particularly the South, counts for more electing the congress and the president than does a vote in another part of the country, particularly the North. The vote of one resident of South Carolina, for example, counts as much as the vote of 181 Chicago and as it takes 90 Chicago voters to do what one Mississippi does at the ballot box.

Patton, Pelton and Howard were further inflicted with United States International J. G. Newton, and Charles J. Natchens, the latter three white men. The assaults against Billeris in the case of the four defendants was marked on the grounds that general in terms, and that an alleged company was started before the proceedings were filed in public office disposition. The proceedings came in a surprise in view of the assaults being set against December 12, and the proceedings were looked upon as a northeast flung issue to the set cases in order.

Reidman is chairman of the state Republican executive committee of the state Republican party and member of the state-affiliated in the Republican platform adopted at Kansas City.

Bears Meet Wildcats On Thanksgiving
SPORTS POTPOURRI
AMERICA'S GREATEST WEEKLY NEWSPAPER
WILDCATS MEET FELINES TODAY; CUBS THURSDAY
Marshall, Texas.—The chief talk on philosopher's rule is about what Wiley will do with Prairie View here Friday, November 23. Interest in a contest between these two schools has not run so high as now since that memorable game in Houston, 1913. Wiley then picked as Wiley's most formidable contender for the 1923 championship, the estimate being based on results of the PV-Langston game, and Wiley having practically been conceded the title. The done was completely upset Aristotle Day when the Bisonhous Bear Aristotle Day was in the phase on the face of the fight for the contest. Prairie View is now under dog, fisting to stay in the race; Wiley Wiley will be positioned as second favorite in the opinions of some of the wiser ones in the gallery whose opinions areOL
Fans generally, however, are predicting the hardest game here November 14, when the Bear takes the winnings witnessed in this state. Prairie View has the man-power and is expected to myself sell the game with wild abandon. Cats, that would put her back in the race and insure at least a tie for second, have the greatest chance to tie for first place, provided the Cats in turn stopped the Bear. This is not an impossible, though improbable, contingency, and interest continues to wax warm in the PV-Wildcat. The great speculation and daily assume more tremendous proportions. Never before in the history of athletics in the United States has the Wildcat stirs unseasily in his hair; the Bear tosses relentlessly in his stride, and the Panther rages infuriated in his den—all awaiting the uncertain but inevitable fate towards which they are bound.
Tuskegee Tigers ToFight Hornets In Crucial Game
Tuskegee Tigers ToFight Hornets In Crucial Game
Tuskegee Jaguars, Ala. — The Tuskegee Tigers will engage in a major football contest when they tackle the State Normal School Hornets in Crampton Bowl, Montgomery, Alabama, on November 24. Previous skirmishes staged by the two schools have ended in four years ago have ended as follows:
Each year, as the record shows, the Tigers' margin of victory has been less and less and according to the rate of decrease the Hornets should emerge victorious from the fray this year.
In Burns, Cooly, Lewis and Moore, State Normal has four stellar backs and the Hornets also have a line that has sufficient strength to be hammered hard without weakening. The line holds when a line should hold and charges when a line should charge. It charges hard, and the speedy backs get off in unison. Moore is a good passer and Hall an excellent receiver and a hard man to tackle in the open field. As punter the work of Moore stands out, and as a field general he must be reckoned with. It would seem that Coach Jacobs has a football team with the qualities that a football team should possess. In the opinion of those competent to judge the merits of football teams, State Normal is regarded as having an eleven with ability to touchdown. The Hornets have thrown a surprise in conference circles this year and have defeated several strong conference opponents.
Abbott's Attack Is Mystery
The Abbott attack is shrouded in mystery as secret practice has been undertaken, but however, that there will be considerable passing and punting as Steven, the coach, and the Harrison, the Joyner, and the Harrison are receiving an extra session of instruction in the crafty Grison coach is permitting no leak in the operations in the bowl it will see. The team will see much active service in the game with the Hornets.

LINCOLN COACH FORCED TO QUIT MEYERS MENTOR
Lincoln University, Pa.—(ANP)—Things transpired rapidly here from an athletic standpoint following the defeat of the Lincoln Lions at the hands of the Morgan Bears. In fact, so rapidly did they transpire that within two days, Dr. W. E. Morrison, head coach, was enroute to Ithaca, New York, and T. C. Meyers, assistant coach, had been elevated to the position of head coach.
The trouble between Coach Morrison and the athletic authorities had been brewing for sometime, dating back to last year which proved to have been the Lion's most inglourious year. This season started with a hang, everything scavenged bright for a winning
A series of reversals climaxed by the defeat at the hands of Morgan College brought things to a head, and the authorities advised Dr. Morrison that they had lost confidence in this ability to produce a winning team and that Meyers would take charge of the team for the remainder of the season.
Lincoln's showing this year has been a distinct disappointment to the followers of the Pennsylvania institution. The material was there, it was evident that Coach Morrison knew football, but something was lacking what that something was nobody could determine. As usual, the coach was named as a result was "paid
Mayers, who succeeds Morrison, was one of the first women to attend Laehco and was for several years assistant coach at Tuskegee Institute. He was also the coach he has gained confidence of the team, the faculty, and student body. He is also the person he is able to bring the Lions through.

CLAW FT. WORTH
(BY V. DELLUMS)
Fort Worth, Texas—The Jackson Bears fought an uphill battle for a 12-6 victory on Worth Field here last week, and the North Texas title by the decisive victory over the Terrell Hi Wildcats. The game was played on a muddy field, and the North Texas could hardly stand up. The Wildcats were the first to draw blood. They were the first to win, running of Quince, first half. But the Bears under the generalship of Ashford, turned the tide of battle running of Quince, and the Wildcats were true Hardie and White were sure gainers. Miller, the star of the game, played the best of ball. The Simmons was the outstanding star of the Wildcats. Scurry of the Bears played him best of ball. The Wall, the best of ball, wall. With the mighty Choice and the giant Thomas at the guards and the giant Cage, and the invincible light ends in Johnson and Williams. FW worth found the tower of strength of Spears, a Wildcat, was a feature. Adams and Loving were stars of Wildcats. Johnson and McGriffe were the outstanding stars of the Bears.

MOREHOUSE WINS
TILT FROM STATE
NORMALITES, 25-7
Montgomery, Ala.—Flash a surprisingly strong running and aerial attack against a rewrapped Hornet line of Atlanta. Crash their way to a decisive 25-7 victory over the local State Fighter at Foster Field in Patterson.
Everything Understated Foley Bros. Cash and Carry BARGAIN BASEMENT
The game started with the two teams being on par and fighting on even terms for the first quarter, although the State Normal lads had three good chances to get the first touchdown. It was in the second quarter that the Morehouse offensive began to show its power with Saunders and Moseley hitting the line for big gains and with Brown and Ellis functioning on the receiving end of an serial attack that netted the two towards for more than a few minutes. State Normal came back strong at start of the third quarter at the beginning of the third period to drive down the field 65 yards for their touchdown before releasing control of the ball. After Lewis had hurled a long pass to Lowe, A. D. Brown crashed over for the touchdown and then Walton and Brown manipulated a clever deceptive play that was a pass to Lewis for the extra point.
With this tide at the beginning of the second half seeming to turn in State Normal's favor, the Morehouse Tigers decided to do some more scoring. Receiving the next kickoff, they used a long pass and then the line smashing of a sixteen-year-old fresh man by the name of H. C. James to the home defense for a third touchdown. This same James kid was used along with Saunders and Moseley in the final period to drive 65 yards for the first touchdown of the game.
The Alabama State Hornets showed considerable prowess at times and flashed some spurts that promised victory. Fuller, A. D. Brown did sense stellar work both on the offense and the defense at the fullback position while Frank Lewis with his passes and Walton with his well-mixed attack as field general elicited much praise. Masler Brown at end showed with Love, Wilson, Captain Hardy and A. Campbell moved to stand out in the line, play for the Harlem and in the For Morehouse Brown at quarterback and Saunders, Mosley and James were the stars on offense along with Ellis who was receiving passes with surprising effectiveness. On defense, Mann at center and Pearson at guard seemed to feature the play of the visitors from Atlanta.
This game was a significant forerunner of feature games during the next two weeks for both teams. The Alabama State Hornets are priming for their feature tilt with Tunkegoe here at Crampton Bowl next Saturday and received a rude jolt with this defeat by the Morehouse machine that had been crushed 20-0 at Tunkegoe and was on the other hand, Morehouse in looking forward to their intersection game with Bluefield at Columbus on Thanksgiving Day and showed an increased power that suggests a tough battle for the potential national champions from West Virginia.

By WILLIAM PICKENS (For The Associated Negro Press) In the recent ship disaster three Negro men, humble members of the crew, stand out as great heroes. After being thrown into the sea, one of them swam back to the founding ship, loosed another life-boat, unmed, rowed out and picked up his two colored comrades, and then the three stout-hearted men proceeded to fish out a score of hopeless white people from the angry waves. These people had no hope of being saved; some of them are said to have called out to the black rescuers, advising them to save themselves and let the hopeless drifter down.

You too, owe it to yourself, your chance to succeed in life, to see that your scalp is rich, pliable, free from dandruff; that your hair is soft, and that it gleams with lustre, life and health.

Miss Mary Skipper Shanders, a Negro teacher at the Negro teachers of Texas, he said, interested report as to attendance, equipment and distribution of school supplies, and the state department that the Negroes of Texas should participate fairly in the state's education, often fails of attainment, however, for lack of local interest. Every member of the committee was urged to invest in the students in his own country or community.
Miss Annie May Mathis, colored nurse from the State Department of Health, told an interesting story of the public health work being done by colored nurses, through maternity instruction and by the staff of the health train which was sent about the state. It was agreed that the members of the committee should lend all possible support to this work in their several communities, as well as its adequate maintenance by the state.

Louisville, Ky.—Many evidences of progress were reported at the annual State Interracial Conference in this city last week, and the director and executive committee were instructed to continue their efforts for better educational, health and transportation facilities for the colored people of Kentucky. An elaborate two-day program was carried out, with an opening address by Governor S. D. Sampson, followed by the report of the director, Dr. James Bond, and addressed by Prof. W. H. Fouse of Lexington, L. N. Taylor of the state department of education, Miss Mande L. Harrison and Mrs. Jane Bond of Louisville, Mrs. S. P. Steele of Paris, and Dr. W. W. Alexander of Atlanta. Among the subjects discussed were educational, economic and health conditions, interracial attitudes and reactions, and race relations as affected by home, school, and church.
Dr. Bond's report recounted remarkable progress along educational lines in Kentucky during the past year, including the appropriation of more than $500,000 by the legislature for the state normal schools at Frankfort and Paducah; authorization of a tax levy to maintain a colored department of the University of Louisville; expenditure of $800,000 for new Negro schools in that city; and notable improvements in colored schools throughout the state. In all these enterprises, the interracial committee was active, either in initiating or helping to promote them. Dr. Bond also reported success of the commission's effort to secure an institution for feeble-minded colored children, for which the legislature recently voted $100,000. Another significant phase of the report dealt with the growing interest in race relations on the part of the churches, as indicated by a number of successful interracial ministerial meetings held recently in Louisville.
Looking to the future, the committee is moving of inequalities and handicaps from which Negro schools are sufferers to which whites are structured a special committee to take steps to secure to colored people their rights on common carrier bus lines. In 2012, the meeting was a concert given Friday at Lincoln Institute, Plymouth Congregational Church, the Bourgardieu church and Simmons University Lincoln Institute, Plymouth Congregational Church, the Bourgardieu church and Simmons University Lincoln Institute, Plymouth Congregational Church, the Bourgardieu church and Simmons University

Rosenwald Extends Philanthropies To Include Health Aid
Chicago, Ill.—(ANP) - Extension of the activities of the Julius Rosenwald School, with building Rural rural schools, to include support of medical services to people of moderate means, is the basis of the program. E. Embree, president of the Julius Rosenwald School, will be in Chicago. Michael M. McKinney is appointed to the executive staff of the fund as director for medical services. Dr. McKinney will be responsible for an authority on hospitals and clinics and as a writer on public health and hospital development he was responsible for the organization of the Pay Hospitals and Health Centers," is the standard work in that field. As executive director for the nell University Medical College. During the past few years he has been engaged in the Rockefeller Foundation and in private work as consultant to vanguard organizations direct the program which the fund is planning to undertake in cooperation with the Rockefeller Foundation to prove the organized facilities for medical service to the average man. In his attention will be given to pay clinics.
William B. Harroff, now assistant auditor of the University of Chicago, served as the controller of the Julius Rosenwald Fund. Born and educated in the Bronx, he served in the court office of B. A., and M. A. from the University of North Carolina. He has been a professor in the court offices of the Universities of North Carolina and Chicago. Clark Foreman, a graduate of the University of Georgian, who is now a professor at New York has been appointed associate field agent of the Julius Rosenwald Fund for Southern schools and colleges. Franklin C. McLean, chief of the medical学院 of the University of Chicago, served as trustee of the Julius Rosenwald Fund. Commenting upon the new work, Dr. Davis has written a memoir, the Julius Rosenwald Fund, said:
"Great loss in human welfare and happiness and in economic efficiency can be curd or prevented by modern medicine. While the brilliant achievement, the triumphs of the century, the full benefits of recent discoveries and present advances, are overrun by severe anomalies. As Dr. William H Welch, dean of American medicine, fully ineffective distribution service as compared with its enormously effective service, has shown that people of moderate knowledge find it harder to get good modern facilities for that disease than do the poor and indigent through charity services and free hospitals.
The Ronald Fund is planning to study and from time to time to give practical aid to clinics and medical services including pay clinics."

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1928
SOME LESSONS FROM THE ELECTION
While the breaking of the erstwhile "solid South" in the recent presidential election may be attributed to either the religious or wet issue, or both, the fact remains that the Republican party was able to make this headway in Dixie because of a divided Democratic party and the G. O. P. leaders should take this fact into consideration in their future pastisan plans below the Mason and Dixon line.
The inevitable result of a divided vote was not only evidenced in the border states and four former Democratic strongholds giving the Hoover-Curtis presidential electors their votes, but this was brought home very forcibly to black voters in New York, Chicago and St. Louis, particularly.
In New York City the colored congressional candidate ran a poor second to his white Democrat opponent in a district (Harlem) which is recognized as the "black belt" of the American metropolis.
Running in Chicago for the congressional post formerly occupied by the late Martin B. Madden, Oscar DePriest, Republican nominee, trailed his Democratic opponent for one day, finally overcoming a 5,000 lead and winning out by a plurality in excess of 4,000 votes; while an independent race congressional aspirant polled nearly 6,000 votes.
Playing both ends against the middle, the white Democrats in a St Louis congressional district, with fully 80 per cent of the population members of the colored race, nominated a colored attorney, Jeffrey C. Browder, for congressional opposition to Congressman Leonidas C. Dyer, sponsor of the perennial anti-lyaching measure which bears his name.
With a divide vote the electors of this Mound City congressional district returned Congressman Dyer to the lower house of congress, and brought about the defeat of a black candidate whose chances—viewing the preponderance of colored voters in the district—of landing the seat were considered good prior to election day.
As a matter of fact, the Informer predicted and expected the Windy City Negroes to so divide their votes in the congressional election as to insure and assure the election of the white Democratic candidate, and to presumably near pulling off a successful racial stunt that the successful nominee and supporters were in considerable doubt as to the final outcome of the contest on the day after the general election.
It is all right, perhaps, for colored electors to split their votes in the majority of elections; but we are such "spitlers" and divide so much when the interests of the race are at stake that it is often dangerous for racial candidates or true and fried friends of the race to trust their political fate entirely into the race's hands.
In Ohio the Negroes showed a united front and consequently sent two members of their race to the state legislature, while even the Windy City race voters united on their legislature candidates and elected five to the general assembly of the Prairie State.
The St. Louis blacks proved the power of political bargaining and elected two Negroes as members of the Missouri state legislature, while at Kansas City, Mo., a race man running for a seat in the state legislature, was defeated by his white Democratic opponent.
In West Virginia, Nebraska and Kansas, race men were elected to the state legislatures over white Democratic opponents, due to the fact that these successful race candidates were accorded the full support of their colored constituents; or a sufficient number of votes to make sure and certain their election.
Instead of one congressman-elect, Negroes of New York City and St. Louis could have increased this number to three, had they laid aside their little differences, prejudices, feasibles and bickering and united their forces for the success of their own flesh and blood.
In the post-war migration, Negroes in many of the urban centers of the Middle West and North have not only become the balance of political power, but they have the weapon in their hands to elect members of their race to city councils, state legislatures and even the congress of the United States, and they will be derelict in their duty if they fail or refuse to wield this power to the best interest of their racial contingent and the country at large.
While a fairly good beginning was made in the recent election, the race leaders in the three centers should get buoy at once and make plans for additional triumphs and conquests in 1950 for there to be no sustained political power and partisan strength recognized leadership and the resultant organization and distribution of forces.

America's Greatest Weekly Recaport
a very forward-looking and helpful program has been outlined for the forthcoming meeting.
Some outstanding and eminent educators, white and colored, have been obtained to address the hundreds of race teachers who will or should attend this annual gathering of their profession in the East Texas city.
Problems and questions peculiarly important factors in the teaching profession, will be discussed and solutions offered by men who are nationally recognized as educational experts and authorities.
Dr. John Guy Fowlz of the University of Wisconsin, one of the most eminent educators of America, has consented to give a series of educational addresses to the general assembly of teachers of the entire school while Dr. N. C. Newbold, distinguished director of Negro education in North Carolina and one of the country's most outstanding authorities on Negro education, will also be one of the special guests of the association.
Other educators and educational authorities of national fame are expected, among whom are Dr. Leo. M. Favrot, field representative of the General Education (Rockefeller) Board of New York City; Dr. J. H. Dillard, former commissioner of education of the United States; John W. Davis, president West Virginia Institute and president of the National Association of Teachers in Colored Schools; President J. B. Watson of Arkansas A. and M. College and former Texas, being graduate at Bishop College at Marshall; to say nothing of the noted educators who will grace the meeting and contribute their part to its success.

Dr. W. R. Banks, principal Prairie View State Normal and Industrial College, is president of this state organization, with Miss Ellie Alma Walls of Houston as secretary-treasurer and Prof. John W. Rice, Dallas, executive secretary.
In connection with the Marshall meeting, The Informer trusts that the teachers who attend will devote more time to the sessions of the meeting than to the daily meetings.
The meeting at the Capital City last year was literally converted into an occasion for pedagogical socializing, fraterizing and otherwise absenting themselves from some of the most important sessions of the organization.
When the president's annual address was delivered at Austin during the 1927 convention, only a mere handful of teachers heard the able message, which contained many helpful suggestions and much food for thought on the part of those engaged in the teaching.
The social side of such gatherings should not be overlooked, neither should sociality be over-emphasized, and the host-city should not plan a series of entertainments which will take and keep the teachers away from the sessions; for these annual meetings are to inform and inspire those who need such information and inspiration, but if the persons who need such are going to absent themselves from such important sessions, the location will ultimately fall in its larger and more comprehensive mission.
GOVERNOR MOODY AND GENERAL VOTE
Latest election returns in Texas show that the Hoover-Curtis presidential electors are leading the Smith-Robinson presidential electors by more than 23,000 votes, and, while this is an unofficial compilation of the balloting Tuesday, November 6, 1928, the Smith-Democrats have long since conceded Texas' twenty electoral votes to the Republican national ticket.
The total votes cast were: Hoover, 371,946; Smith, 348,839; total, 720,835.
While the total vote cast in the presidential race was close to the three-quarter of a million mark, Governor Dan M. Moody, running for re-election as chief magistrate of the Lone Star State, only received 292,843 votes; while his Republican opponent, W. H. Holmes of Amarillo, had to content himself with 65,154 votes. In other words, of the 720,000 or more citizens who marched to the polls in this state on general election day, nearly 428,000 refused to vote for Governor Moody's re-election, and the majority of these electors were strong for "Dan" before his flasco at the National Democratic Convention in Houston during last June.
Deducting the 65,154 who voted for the G. O. P. gubernatorial nominee in this state, 362,838 Texas refused to cast a ballot for their erstwhile popular governor.
Ordinarily, a popular governor like the present incumbent leads the ticket in votes received in this state in a general election; but much of the former strength and popularity of Governor Moody seem to have waned between the national parley of the party and general election day.
The voters admire a man with the courage of his convictions, and even though they may disagree with his platform, policy and pronouncements, if he has moral courage and will fight for a principle to the last ditch, they will overlook some other things and accord him either an appreciable amount of support or respect.
Hailed as David (the dry apostle), who was to battle the mighty Goliath (wet forces), at the national conclave of the Democratic party in this city last summer, the governor either left his slog and rock at his Austin mansion or Houston hotel room, or he lost his seat in the Democratic arm at the psychological moment, and thus the dry cause lost because his fury champion forgot how to champion the cause at the crucial hour.
Having been so outspoken in his opposition and hostility to the wet Gotham governor and Taximany protege, Texans of all political factions expected their governor to either remain painfully silent, or "bolt" the Democratic presidential nominee.

Hailed as David (the dry appetizer), who was to battle the mighty Goliath (wet forces), at the national conclave of the Democratic party in this city last summer, the governor either left his sling and rock at his Austin mansion or Houston hotel room, or he lost the cunning and dexterity of his arm at the psychological moment, thus the dry cause lost because its erstwhile fiery champion forged a new path for the governor. Having been outspoken in his opposition and hostility to the wet Gotham governor and Taximany protege, Texans of all political faiths expected their governor to either remain painfully silent, or "bolt" the Democratic presidential nominee.
For a while it appeared as if our chief ministrate was going to maintain a stiff upper lip in the political controversy, and whenever an invitation was extended him to "shell the woods" for Gov. Rick Santorum in the national ticket, Governor Moody always plied "previous engagement."
A few days before the campaign ended the governor permitted the Texas Smith leaders to smoke him out of his secret hiding place, these astute and wily party chiefs advising the governor that he was the only man in the state able to answer the Dallas speech of Senator William E. Borah, Idaho solo who spoke convincingly in the North Texas city in behalf of the Hoover Curtis ticket.

A few days before the campaign ended the governor permitted the Texas Smith leaders to smoke him out of his secret hiding place, these astute and wily partisan chieftains advising the governor that he was the only man in the state able to answer the Dallas speech of Senator William E. Borah, odorado salon who spoke proudly in the North Texas city in behalf of the Hoover-Curtis ticket.
Again Governor Moody came to the fore, not as "little David, the shepherd boy," but as the "political Moes" whose masterly address at a statewide Democratic rally in Dallas just before the election, was supposed to lead the Texas forces of Democracy and Tammany Hall into the promised land of milk, honey, offences and "plumus"; but again this erstwhile state Democratic stalwart proves that he is a leader in the state. Moody carried Texas, played no small part in defeating the Smith-Robinson presidential electors in this state and in giving our governor such a minority vote in his campaign for re-election and vindication.
If Governor Moody had any political aspirations and ambitions before the idea of November, it is feared that his chances of winning went a-glimmerming with the result of the recent general election in the Lone Star State; for, unless the warring factions in the state were able to unite, the governor Moody and his Smith-Democrats are in for some dark and dismal days, politically ruminating.

Because of the well-health utterly unmarried woman, she abolished the jail, stating that it was a "needless expense" to the community, which action and record show is not such a bad egg" after all.

Because Mr. Jones set was so unusual for the average railroad conductor, many and fine example set by the conductor mention and sincerely hope that other Texas conductors will follow the worthy, many and fine example set by the conductor mention and sincerely hope that other Texas conductors suggest that the traveling colored public be as quick to comment conductors and are as critics (too often where our complaints are never heard by the railroad officials) in dealing with Negro passengers.
PREPARATION FOR THANKSGIVING
(By CLYTY FEARS)
Three hundred and seven years ago, when our country was new, the wives of our ancestors were making arrangements to make for the great Thanksgiving festival, as the wives afforded abundant game of all kinds, and the Pilgrim father by the skill of his curry brought home turkey kebabs, apples, pears, fruits and nuts for the feast. Thus, the Pilgrim housewife of long age started the plans for the first Thanksgiving dinner. Her intricacies confront the modern wife as she starts preparing for the Thanksgiving dinner. In this stage of fragrality every way possible, she prepares the meals and live within one's income. Markets bedecked with vegetables, fruits, nuts and fowls have taken the places of the plentiful forests that disappeared from the market. Markets with many things pleasing to the eve, but every thing has its price. In shopping, according to the average Negro's income, in order that on this day of happy family gatherings a well-balanced
The first thing to be considered is the meat dish for the dinner, as the meat dish is usually a dish. Having an over-supply of foods on this festive day has disappeared; instead one should have a meat dish. Much care and thought should be given to the selection and cooking of the meat dish and plan must be decided first. Below is a menu for a holiday meal that will suffice for any family of four. Menu—whole baked ham, bread, scalloped potatoes, dandelion greens, Julienne consome, apple-celery salad, date pudding, coffee or tea. Menu—for date pudding: 2 eggs, 1 tsp. butter, 1 tsp. of dates, 3 hp. tsp. ice, 1 cwaltm, 1c. whipped cream.

Bryan, Texas, Nov. 21, 1928. Shilo Baptist Church, the first Baptist church of this city, paid tribute to their pastor, Rev. J. W. Rhodes, in the form of an anniversary on the occasion of the close of his third year's work in this historic church. Everything possible was done to make the celebration a success by the loyal memorial group, the decorations, and the decorations, under the supervision of Mrs. Chambers, were elaborate and artistic.

Many out-of-town visitors were present, among whom were: District Missionary C. N. Williams, Angleton; Dr. Wm. A. H. E. L. K. G. Carter, Dr. A. E. Thompson, Prof. R. C. Neal, assistant principal of the local high school Frank Osborne and James Johnson spoke of the three years' work of the pastor in Shiloh, and emphasized the fact that not only has Rev. Rhodes developed his church, but his influence has been felt throughout the city of Bryan, and has thereby won for him the respect and admiration of the ensportary and expressed the hope that the pastor would like the limited Dr. D. H. Shivers, live long to continue the work so favorably begun.
Committees: Deacon Ed Scott, general chairman; James Johnson, superintendent of Sunday school; Frank Osborne, president of B. Y. P. U.; Mrs. Deessie Shivers Brooks, organist; Mrs. Mollie Hearne, chairman of refreshments; Mrs. B. E. Simmons, president W. H. M. S.; Mrs. Chambers, chair-lady decorations; Mrs. M.

Mumford spoke to the students about purchasing some portable bleachers for Thanksgiving Day exercises with the Wiley Wildcats on Bishop Field. This is being done to accommodate the convention as well as the game. He selected Wednesday night as the game to be played at the convention. On Wednesday night the class assembled, but the exact results have not been reported. The hoped that the required quota has been raised by the students. Thursday night was given over to the regiment and the event meeting was conducted by Miss Genella Mack. The Y. M. C. A. gave the event meeting to the Max Yorgan movement. The Arkansas griders arranged to send the Max Yorgan medalled to fifth quartet. The usual show was also held. Saturday night. The Sunday morning school was held in freshman boys and a short but well rendered program given. Mrs. H. I. rendered the program. Mrs. H. I. ended a very pleasant and successful week for both curricular and extra-curricular activities. Minor plan students were given a game Thursday, Nov. 29, and thousands are expected to attend from all states. The Bears encouraged, but not at all over-confident by virtue of tame the Wildcats.

HE "KID" for some time had been trying to break into the "gang." He wasn't a bad kid as kids go, and I, for one, was willing to take him on. "Red" Jackson (called so because he was as nearly coal black as a human could be), and Johnson the Swede, were also willing, but Jack ("Gentleman Jack"), Harry Whiting and "Tom Thumb" vetoed the proposition.
Nix on the kindergarten stuff, they would say, and tell the "Kid" to chase on up to "Dusty's" and try and beat the rummy game.
Charley, the Kid's brother, was the leader of our cosmopolitan outfit.
Charley, "Red" Jackson, and myself (Doc Jenkins) were black.
"Gentleman Jack" was white, and from Virginia.
Harry Whiting was a little Cockney Englishman, and Tom Thumb, whose real name wasn't Thumb at all, but something like Casey or O'Connor, was an Irishman with a brogue as thick as a Puget Sound fog.

Charley wouldn't vote either way about the Kid.
The "Kid" was his brother he said, and he wouldn't force him on the gang.
If the gang wanted him all right, let the gang decide.
So there we were locked three and three until the "Bertha" docked at Smith's cove.
The Kid brought the news about the stuff on the "Bertha."
We were all at "Dusty's," the joint where most of the stevedores and longshoremen of the Seattle waterfront used to hang out in those days.
"Red" Jackson and Tom Thumb were playing "Rummy" and the rest of us were watching—we were getting a big kick out of the way "Red" would "fall out" (win) every other pot as Tom slipped him the "Spreads."
Charley and the Kid spoke Spanish.
They looked like Mexicans anyway.
I think they were from San Antonio or some town in Texas, and were probably mixed with "Mexicano" somewhere down the line; so when

the Kid came in and began Jabbering to Charlie in Spanish, we paid no particular attention.
But Charley called "Gentleman Jack," Harry and me over and explained to us that the Kid had heard from a sailor on the "Bertha" that the purser had ten cases of "Sam Clay" he would sell for sixty dollars a case.
The news was rather interesting for we had been idle three weeks; and too, we had struck a snag on our last job when Johnson the Swede, Tom Thumb and myself, each packing a gunny sack filled with a case of "bonded," had run right into the arms of four uniformed cops.
We blamed Harry Whiting, who got to tinkering with that buzz wagon of his and let the cops get by without warning us when he was supposed to be looking out.
Anyhow the three hundred we lost was just the amount of profit we made from the three cases brought in by Charley, Red Jackson, and Gentle-

About BOOKS
BY GORDON B. SCHULTZ
This is a rather interesting story, the tale of one of the white miltions of the world, the wife of one of the white miltions. The mother, the sister of the mother, the grandmother, the book. The book, written with charm because it may give mighty beauty to its pages, gives more beauty to its pages. The expectant mother, the expectant father, the expectant sister, the expectant brother, all of these, lives here and there, and lives there. The book, the gallant from this book, is a second edition of the stale book, and I intended this book with great relief.

FOURTH INSTALLMENT OF THE DRAMATIC SERIAL OF AMBITION, DECEPTION AND SUCCESS

FOURTH INSTALLMENT OF TI
- What Max Gome Before
Martha Hustings, beautiful and talented daughter of a hard working widower, was born to take a career in order that her mother was capy for the first time to be a family young insurance manager who comes to town to establish an agency. He rents a room at the girl's age and when her mother is abducted, he is taken to the house. He decides to win the gift by paying about court and promotion. He is about to lead the girl to rule the Highlands, the manager of the Hustings office service. Followed, James have for Chicago. From three he made a letter to Martha with car there to bring her to him. He engages in the objections of Ralph Armstrong, the girl general. Armstrong tells her mother and grandson to follow the gift on the next train and bring her back.
How go on with the story.
ARTHA arrived in Chicago about 5 o'clock the following afternoon. As the great city returned up all about her, she appeared a feeling of fright and bewilderment.
ANTIA arrived in Chicago on Friday following a series of appearances. As all about her, she played the role of a girl who was abducted by the police. She was written by Johnston and she had imaged him at his bed. He fit very well in the middle of their way out of the station. Would he meet her as he had
She glanced this way and that looking for Johnco.
She was about to give up in despair when she saw him, tall and handsome rushing towards her with a broad smile on his face.
She ran up to him with a little appeal of delight, and he folded her in his strong arms.
"Oh sweetheart," he exclaimed.
"I am so glad to see you. I wasn't sure whether you would come or not."
To the Black Belt
Bundling the girl into it, he put her suture in back, and sent himself beside her started down the headward toward the Negro section that you didn't tell you, so that you had to go to the next day. " Oh no, darling," she replied. "I didn't say a word to her about it. I'm awfully sorry, too, because I rather think I did wrong in coming away as I did. " "No, that's a random replied, " Everything will come out all right and she will be glad to know that you and I are married." At this Murth's looked up trustingly into the man's free. All of her fears were gone now and I was trusted. John's was explicitly. All her worries suddenly came to an end.
After all, this was what she had wanted more than anything else. While Johnson had been in Chicago he had not been side. In his office he had covered his tracks well.
He had given his employers to understand that he was on his way to a small town in West Virginia. He had checked out of the Vincentines hotel where he stayed, telling them that he was leaving town. Then bidding goodbye to several of his friends, prior to the arrival of Murth's train, he had gone down to the station to meet her.
He figured that his trail was well covered.
And then, he did not drive his roadster through any of the sections where he was a familiar figure.
A Sungkilien Place
Instead he drove out along the side of the large rectangle and shopped in from a large burglar shop. It was a rather unfolding structure. All the curtains were pulled down.

When Johnson had gone Marling ally inspected the room,
Marling Freshens Up
She was feeling for her life.
She was experiencing all of that feeling of freedom that so many people have when they really put out from our parental restraint and authority.
She felt all of the feminine assurance about the time having to be about to make an error, like a man with strength, intelligence, good looks and money.
She was very tolerantly now of the first effort. Johnson had made to force his attentions on her in her mother's little home in Hainesville, of course, but had long since forged his for the first that in the caregiver's manner of youth.
As she began to take off her street, she was never to take a stand-up of the worldness bathroom retopage of the evidence of her journey, she entertained herself thinking how she was so good to be in their little home after marriage.
While filling the tub with steaming water, she actually laughed about her.
In the meantime, Johnson was downstairs chatting in low tenns with Mrs. Jones.
"She was saying how to handle her," he was saying. "You just do your part and I'll see that you are well paid for it. She won't be here more than a few days before you'll be able to get her in the business. I know those little country girls, you know. I haven't been making all around the country for nothing."
"Dom, she suspect anything?" Mrs. Jones queried with just a hint of anxiety in her tone.
"Hell, no!" the man replied. "Haven't I just got through telling you she is as green as a guard? But you just leave her to me and do as I say. After I have a little fun I'll turn her over to you and you can trade her to bring in the jack. She's not exactly a fool and I guess she'll soon see on what side her bryag is buttered."
"Well," commented the lady of the house, "a broad with her looks can certainly clean up a pile of dough here. We haven't had no good looking a gal as her in the house for ages."
" Johnson Esters
When Johnson figured that Martha had completed her toilet he went up to her room and knocked softly at her door.
"Come in," Martha called in her ancient looss.
As he entered she flew into his arms and hung tightly to him while he showered her with kisses and pruned her little body firmly to him.
Martha felt a popular shiver go down her spine as Johnson's hand stroked her back and shoulders.
She felt a lunororous thase come

It all seemed as though all care and caution was vanishing, and that she only wanted this man's body to be touching here and for him to hold her in his vice-like arms.
"What a beauty!" Johnson�gled to himself as he touched her smooth petal-like cheeks and patted the curves of her back and shoulder.
Then ahead: "Well, darling, I suppose you're hungry after your long trip. I've ordered something nice to eat and drink. It'll be here in a few seconds."

Table in the center of the room, he would occasionally steal a glance at Martha and then leer sardonically at Johnson.
"No, everything was ready.
An Elaborate Meal
It was the most elaborate meal Martha had ever seen.
There was delicious soup, fish, chops, fried chicken, creamed potatoes, asparagus, pickles, fried onions, peas, squash, coffee and pie a la mode.
In a pair beside them were two large bottles of wine imbedded in finch chipped ice.
Martha looked on in amazement as the water boarded himself uncovering first one dish and then another carrying dinner gut and leering into the wine.
"Now, Johnson began as they was down, "you must have a little apetite before you start eating. Just take a little swallow of this liquor.
With this, he filled two slender little glasses, hardly large enough to accommodate Martha's little dinner, with a golden syrupy French liquor.
"Oh, how cute," Martha exclaimed, admiring the minute glasses.
She was too hesitant about drinking this.
She noted that there was hardly a swallow in the glass, and being so natural of the potency of the drink, she swallowed it without also.
It tasted very good as it coursed slowly down.

man Jack, we got nothing for that job, and besides the cops had recognized us and were getting wise to the gang, so that we had to lay off and alibi by working a few shifts apiece on the docks.
We were all rainy to go and sixty dollars a case was dirt cheap—back to the price of the days before the state of Washington was dry and the stuff only brought ten dollars a quart retail.
Now we could get twenty dollars a quart, two hundred and forty dollars a case, or a meal little profit of eighteen hundred bucks on those ten dollars.
The gang decided that Charley and Jack should go out and see the Purser.
We made up the six hundred bucks and they left.
In the meantime the Kidd had cornered me off and was trying to get me to read his case with the gang. I liked the good.
He was a game little cuss, could cold deck or hold out in a rummy game with a dozen hard-boiled long-shoremen as coolly and almost as neatly as Red Jackson himself.
And that took nerve, more nerve than I had, and I believed the Kid would make the good.
Again, the Kid and I had a common interest.
The boys called me "Doc" because it was rumored that I had once been practicing saw-bones and had quit in disgrace or disgust, one or the other.
However that may be, the Kid, who was pretty smart, and I both liked to read and to argue about science, philosophy, religion, etc.
We would sometimes sit in the longshoremen's hall (all the gang and the Kid were members of the union) until 3 or 4 o'clock in the morning, arguing about science and religion.
Neither of us made a convert of the other, but we had formed a firm and fast friendship, based perhaps on our differences.
It is braced me and asked me to go to bat again for him.
I promised I would, intending to use the argument of bow valuable the Kid would be in getting information, such as he had brought us that day.
Jack and Charley found the stuff all right.
Ten cases of "Ham Clay" in the original packing boxes; labels, seals and bottles, all intact and all genuine.
They had paid the purser, taken the bottles out of the case and put them in ten gunny sacks.
We locked them in the purser's cabinet, on the starboard side of the ship, and placed a heaving line handy.
The "Illithia" was berthed at the west end of the pier.
About a quarter of a mile away was a row of fishermen's cabins with a street between running down to a skiff landing.

Meeting Mrs. Jones in the half, a whispered consultation followed.
Johnson then went into the next room, coming through the bath with Martha's, and the housekeeper went into Martha's room and helped her undress.
Then, seeing into the bathroom, she unlocked the door to Johnson's room very quietly and returning, made Martine a cheery "good-night," to which the left was unable by this time to reply.
Seconds lengthened into minutes, and the minutes lengthened into an hour.
Martha, arrayed in her chaste white nightgown, lay unconscious on the bed, her breast gently rising and falling away.
The knob on her bathroom door turned slowly without a sound.
He had a long-legged upper-hipped foot into the room, a justful smile of anticipation on his face.

lower it by means of the having line to Johnson and Tom in the skiff.
Harry and I were to be at the landing in Harry's Studebaker, while Red Jackson was to act as look-out on the dock.
The time was set for 8:30 the next night. Harry and I were to row the skiff over and tie it up to the landing the next day about 4 o'clock, look over the lay of the land and get the car in shape.
The rest of the gang were to work the day shift, trucking off the "Bertha" so as to be familiar with every thing.
When the night shift steredorgas went on the ship Charley and Jack were to go with them, and promptly at 8:30 be ready to lower the stuff.
Harry and I were to blink the headlights if anything suspicious showed up on the road leading to the dock, and Red Jackson was to relay the signal to Charley and Jack on the ship.
"How about the Kid?" said I. "Don't you think we ought to give him a chance, since this is a small job and he brought the tip in the first place?"
"No, no," said Gentleman Jack, "you are always harping on the Kid. Even though this is a small job, it's our first one for three weeks, and we don't want to take any chances on having it gumsmed up by a green kid, who might get cold feet in a pinch."
I was about to make a hot reply in defense of the Kid, to the effect that he had a much smaller service as Gentleman Jack, when I caught Charley's eye.
Charley had been talking to me about the gang.
"Doc," he had said to me, "I don't intend for the gang to be doing this petty larceny stuff very long; two or three times a week, and we'll be able to muster up enough kale to buy a little boat. I saw over in Tacoma,
Three high speed motors, Doc, and she can outrun anything on the Sound; fellow built it checked out and she can be bought for a song. You know since the Eighteenth Amendment Canada is our best bet and this little beauty will match a hundred cases here from British Columbia so quick it will make your head swim. "Two'n take long at that rate, Doc, for us to get—well, we will really be in the business."
I remembered what Charley had said to me and I knew he was particularly anxious to keep Jack in the gang and satisfied.
Jack was a valuable man; his specialty was his appearance.
He could put on a front and you couldn't tell him from Astorblitt.
He turned all the stuff we got at the highest market price before we got it off the ship.
He and Charley had stopped at the club on the way back from the cove and Jack had gone in and arranged to unload the ten cases as soon as we could deliver them at two hundred forty per.
Also, the Kid was Charley's brother and if he didn't see fit to push the matter it was a little out of place for me.

We got there just at 5 o'clock, as the day shift were coming off.
As soon as we saw Tom and John, we could tell that something was going to start.
We glanced up at the ship and there, sure enough, were two re-come men, one fore and one aft.
"How long have they been here?" I asked Tom.
"How many forgears have been here all day," he replied.
"Here comes the relief now."
The two who were on the ship came down to the parrage and left after exchanging a few words with the newcomers who went on deck together.
We began slowly patrolling in their place.
We all arrived at the dock but
The Horton bay was in port five days, would not be the next night, and take our first course of "Nant" lay, so out of the way, and find a way to outwith the two men.
"There was nothing to do but wait around until that's up," said Tom.
The night shut work was done, and a number of them took off the lock, and a number of them sat still.
"Deciding to wait for a while, we were not conspicuous," said Mr. Red Jackson, who was there.
They had a paper, the re-arrived before they reached us.
Red was in time in some long distance, but found it complacent, expressed in his choice of character.
"Our first question was: Is the ship able to run on the ship?"
Tom, too, said, "we are still around and set a short-term目地 off."
Red was to face around until in the clock of the day, the re-arranged ship was left.
"Our next question was: Is the ship able to run on the ship?"
Tom, too, said, "we are still around and set a short-term目地 off."

The best thing about it is that it can be bought unpainted, and you can paint it yourself in the color you want.
Thus if it can be more distinctive and better express your individuality.
Because the ideas are so new it costs a great deal bought finished.
In fact, only the rich can stand the "finished" prices.
Not anyone can afford it in the unpainted state.
Not only that but if your husband is badly ill, the new he can make it.
Or you can give the ideas to a carpenter and get it done very cheaply.
It is without the old fashioned carving and fretting.
Straight lines forming squares and rectangles and triangles are most used.
Simple curves and circles are also popular.
Some of the tables are built in the graduated style like a set of blocks.

Mrs. Jerome Discusses “Time Limit” in Love
THE ART OF LOVE
By Julia Jerome
A YOUNG MAN taken us to account upon our last week's letter and comment.
Dear Mrs. Jerome:
It may be true that some women dislike a man to "rush" them into petting parties "right off the reel." But it's my experience that they despise you if you don't. If you don't get fresh with them they put you down as a dead one.
That's as hard as the questions they used to put to King Solomon!
But it seems to me that a kind of sixth sense ought to be used in the matter.
A man ought to be able to "sense" the proper moment for serious approach.
If a woman is "falling" for you, you'll know it.
Don't be either hesitant or hysterical.
For there is something hysterical about a man who grabs at every female he meets.
Try to remember that there are other fish in the sea.
That the woman before you isn't the last one on earth.
There is a difference between restraint and constraint.
She will believe that her personality has finally won you against your will.

break, so now they were watching the gangplank to see that nothing came down that way.
Charley, Jack and Tom had spent the night playing pinnacle and arguing with the purser.
The purser was pretty hard-boiled. He wouldn't agree to take the stuff back at half price or any price.
As far as he was concerned the deal was closed.
He would do what he could to help us get it off the ship, but if we didn't succeed he would have to leave it overboard when he got out to see.
We don't intend to bet her ball help it. We only want one thing to do and not much time in which to do it. We must pack the staff off our car. The only chance we would have to leave is at the quitting room. We could not sit away six hours much chance of detection. His sixteen would be forty-two at noon and forty-four at midnight. That made only 24. We put the ballbottles on go back with a mighty bolt. The chance to speak a word for the KJ object. We all wanted a word but we hardly could get to him at the hall when I tasted it.

Charley and Tom went out to reconnotter.
In about ten minutes they came back.
The ship was clear.
Both the revenue men were on the pier.
When the whistle blew we were to come to the fore gangway, where Tom would be standing.
Tom was to whistle the chorus of the "River Hannon" just at the moment when a big bunch of steve doves were ready to go down the gangway.
The whistle blew.
I intended to keep close to the Kid, but the passageway was so narrow we got struck out and separated.
Afterward I learned that the porter had come up behind the Kid and, not knowing who he was, the Kid had docked into the engine room.
Anyhow, when I got out on deck I saw the Kid coming out of the passageway leading from the engine room.
To my surprise he kept right toward the gangway.

The Kid Joins the Gang
(Continued from Page 7)
from the direction in which our car was parked—and began to walk away.
Longshoremen were all around, sitting on trucks eating lunch.
As the Kid passed old George Harding I could see George telling him the revenue man was behind him.
Anyone could tell the Kid was loaded now.
He wasn't used to packing the stuff, and with the excitement and all the two bottles in his front overalls' pocket were giving him trouble.
The revenue man called out: "Hey there, young fellow."
The Kid didn't turn around, but kept on walking at an angle toward the east gate, just so he could see the revenue man over his shoulder.
The revenue man speeded up a bit to overtake the Kid.
The Kid speeded up also.
The revenue man bent down and started to run and the Kid lit out.
Straight for the big east gate he flew.
Then I saw the other revenue man I had been trying to locate.
From behind a box car near the gate he jumped.
The Kid saw him, too, and saw he was trapped.
He swung in again at an angle toward the ship, and I wondered if he were going to jump overboard.
I jumped. I revenue man say: "Stop or I will shoot."
Then I saw where the Kid was heading for—a little gate, just on the edge of the pier, which opened out into a flat waste where a big pile of oil barrels was burning.
In the meantime the Kid had got the two bottles out of his front overalls' pockets.
Down on the pier they went—smash, smash.
The Kid made the gate with the revenue man about ten yards behind.
Straight for the long pile of burning barrels he flew.
I didn't see how he was going to get away, for one end of the fire ran right down to the bay and the other into a sort of lagoon that made that stretch of waste land a long peninsula lying parallel to the bay.
The revenue man saw they had the Kid trapped and separated, one running toward each end of the pile of waste land, and the Kid off whichever way he went.
Straight through the fire went the Kid.
The pile of barrels was about two hundred feet long and twenty feet wide, and the Kid went through twenty feet of fire without looking around.
It took the revenue men so much by surprise that they both stopped, then rushed to the place where the Kid went through, expecting, I guess, to find him in the fire, but the Kid got home threw and with an inebriated speed kept on to the end of the peninsula, crossed the lagoon on a little foot bridge there and was hitting it for the tall timbers.
He was waiting for me at Dusty's when I got there, about 3 o'clock.
He looked pretty sad, all hunched up over a glass of near beer which he had ordered and not even tasted. "Well, Doc," he said with a little weak smile, "you did all you could for me and it wasn't your fault I flunked and gummed up the works. I guess Jack was right; I'm only a grouper. Must have had myself over-rated." "Tell me, Kid," I asked, "why did you hit the gangway before Tom's whistle? Did you get scared of the purser?"
"Was that the purser, Doc? I didn't know who he was and I admit he made me a little uneasy, but I would have been dodging him till it did if I hadn't heard somebody whistle 'River Shannon.' Honest, Doc; you know I wouldn't lie to you."
I didn't believe the Kid was lying. Harry had sworn he also heard the Tom. Thumb wasn't the only Irish stevdore in Seattle and it was our fault for picking such a common tune.
Anhow the Kid looked so broken up and forlorn I didn't have the heart to keep the news from him any longer, so I told him the rest of the story.
O'Carley wasn't the leader of our gang by accident.
He could think fast and act quickly.
When he saw the two revenue men chase the Kid through the gate and head toward the fire he yelled: "Back to the clan, man!" Back we went, grabbed the rest of the sacks of booze and crashed the gangway. The revenue men turned back after the Kid made his getaway just as Harry let in the clutch and the Studebaker headed for the — club with ten cases of Sam Clay less the Kid's load. Jack had collected, we had made the divvy of the profits, and I gave the Kid his share as a full-fledged member of the gang.
(Watch for the next installment. Read about 'the thrilling adventures in the liquor traffic.)
MRS. SARAH JOHNSON of Louisville writes in as follows: "Dear Sir: Will you please tell me what this dream means? It seems that I saw many stars falling from the heavens. The sky appeared to be clear and cloudless, and the stars fell very rapidly."—Sarah Johnson.
"This is quite an unusual dream."
John Quince an enthusiast dreaded Had Mr. Johnson been the victim of the falling of only one star, that would have meant that some person of very great prominence in the nation is very short to die.
To dream of the falling of many stars, however, would seem to point to some very great social or political commotion.
I do not know whether or not Mrs. Johnson is in politics, but I am sure she must be interested in politics. Either that or she takes a keen interest in the heavens. Whatever be her interest, I am convinced that there is going to be considerable upheaval within a very short time.
Ever since the birth of mankind human beings have been interested in the heavens and have made a study of the stars.
Persians, Egyptians, Assyrians, Babylonians, Arteses and Incas, all had astronomical observatories in which trained men, usually priests, which trained men, usually stars and the laws of their rotation.
Hence, you see that interest in the stars is of great antiquity.
To dream of them always indicates a change in social or political affairs.

FAITH
ABOUT a month ago a Ten Billion Dollar dinner was held in New York City.
Of course, the dinner did not cost that much, but it received its name from the fact that the combined wealth of the principal guests of honor was Ten Billion Dollars.
There were at that dinner, Henry Ford, the automobile king; Eastman, the kodak king; Firestone, the rubber king; Schwab, the steel king; Lipton, the tea king; and several other men of fabulous wealth.
How did these men get their money?
Through the application of advertising and organization.
But for that intelligence or organization, it would not have been possible for them to have accumulated so much money without faith in what they had to sell.
Because they had faith in their products, they spent millions and millions of dollars advertising them.
For instance, when Henry Ford put out his latest model of automobile, he spent over a half million dollars in full-page advertisements in the principal newspapers of the country. Because he had faith in his own product, people also had faith in it. Thousands and thousands of cars were sold before they were even made.
Faith did it.
The reading public has faith in the large advertisers.
The large advertiser spending huge sums every day must have faith and confidence in what he is selling in order to inspire that same faith and confidence in those who will buy his products.
Modern business is erected upon faith, and large advertisements are a pretty good barometer of the faith that a man places in his goods.
The buyer can depend upon it that the goods offered by the large advertiser are all that they are claimed to be.
