New York Painter- Artist Wins Fame in Paris
Albert Alexander Smith Wins High Distinction at the Salon de Beauxillet, the Suydam Bronze Medal and the John Armstrong Challoner Prize
Again our attention is called to a member of our group who has aspired to the upper most realms of success in the pursuit of higher learning. Albert Alexander Smith, a lad in his early twenties born and reared in the San Juan Hill section of New York City who began his career when a child drawing pigs and cows amusing his playmates, now has the eyes of the artists of the world upon him. He was graduated from the DeWitt Clinton High School and was awarded a scholarship in Ethical Culture and by the artistic guidance of Miss Irene Weir a niece of the late J. Alden Weir the academician, he has succeeded in attaining honorable mention all over Europe. He has been abroad since June, 1920, and his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Smith are looking forward to his visit home with great anxiety. His proud parents are overjoyed in learning of his wonderful success and are receiving a host of congratulations from their many friends.

"BLAZING THE TRAIL" By Alvin J. Moses
Chris Huiswoud, long rated the ablest Colored basketball official in the country, has been appointed to the Collegiate Basketball Association to officiate in League Games. This is indeed a singular honor, and merely goes to show that merit is recognized generally in the Sportive Realm. "Strangler" Frank Forbes, famed bear trapper has branched out as a basketball manager of parts. Frank yodels to the blue canopy above that his troupe of educated court artists, must be ranked among the best in the game. More power to you, Frank. We'll watch your progress through the season's run.
Paul Robeson, one of the greatest gridiron luminaries to ever matriculate at Rutgers College, and the immortal "Fritz" Pollard, are playing the game of their brilliant young lives with the Milwaukee professional outfit, so western report states. Pollard is still the same artful, weaving, shifty, ground gainer he was when in his halycon days at Brown, when back in 1916 he almost single handedly defeated both Harvard and Yale.
The Manhattan Elk Lodge gave an excellent smoker at the Commonwealth Club, for its members and friends. Six interesting and well matched bouts were on the program, which opened with a wrestling contest, in which Edwards, Colored lightweight wrestling champion showed. John Lester Johnson, one of the few men to have defeated Champion Jack Dempsey, within the rope enclosure, and Odell H.. Crump, cleverest colored fight second in the game, officiated as referee. Mr. Mitchell, of. the St. Christopher Club, director of the Athletic Body of the Manhattan Lodge, was voted a round of thanks for the splendid card.

WITH THE YOUNG MEN'S CLUBS
The purpose of this column is to put before the reader the different phases of work carried on by the various clubs in this community. Man associates and affiliates himself with his colleagues that he may learn and understand the doings of other men, so that he may be able to arm and fit himself accordingly, to pursue his

worldly duties. We shall first have a general review of several organizations. * * * The Inter-High School Association consisting of Negro high school students. There are very few other organizations who can boast of a more intellectual and prominent membership of young high school colored men. A great number of these men are A-1 and champions in their activities. The lack of space does not permit the enumeration of this galaxy of stars. The chief purpose of this club is to encourage "going to school." * * * The Gaiety Social and Dramatic Club has been formed, as its name suggests, to advance the ethics of society among those concerned, and secondly, to seek those who are dramatically inclined and boost them. * * * La Clique has its purposes, the advancement of social recreation among those connected with it and the promotion of literary research. * * * Columbia Cubs A. C. is an athletic organization of no little note. It points out the benefits of athletics to young men and urges them to take part. Various activities are covered among which are baseball, basketball and track. * * The Union University Club is composed of men of the college by that name, who are doing constructive work in the aid of their Alma Mater. A scholarship is given by the club, to the young man who has shown some distinct ability during his high school course. It is donated yearly for the college. * * * The Douglass Society at City College is a society formed by Negro students for the study of the Negro in all phases. This group specializes in research work.

The Parent's League is on the warpath again, it's the youngsters this time. Down with mid-day joyrides at Dunbar and Armstrong. * * U'm says that the girls are praying for a zero Thanksgiving day. We know why. The fur shops have been crowded to capacity recently and so far it seems to be a race between Hudson seals, minks and squirrel. Go to it, ladies. The Tattler's prophecy favors Washington as the blue ribbon winner. * * Miss Auretha Javis who has spent several months in New York City has returned to Washington and is a student at the Miner Normal School. * * Mr. DeReef Holton and his car were visitors in Baltimore over the week-end. * * Mrs. Blanche Hallback Henderson, erstwhile secretary to Madam Lelia Walker Robinson Wilson, is convalescent undergoing a minor operation at the Freedman's Hospital. * * Dr. Chas. Fisher has a nice new set of Virginia tags. Wonder why? * * The vacationers at Va. Beach, Va., are leaving the summer colony and so Miss Olivia Johnson is in town for the winter. * * Mr. Church Young soon found out the disadvantages of a Ford and now has the car that made good in a day. To show that he maintains speed inside as well as out he gathered around him the following young men: Perry Robinson, Phil Brooks, John Graves, Pinky Ballard, Irving Fields and Forrester Henderson and they all made the trip through The Paradise in high. * * Mr. Samuel Cheevers, the student manager of Howard's Eleven is the only member of the squad who with a cigarette in his mouth smacks the coach on the back and begins the razz. * * Lord Phillips Brooks has taken residence in the Whitelaw Hotel. * * Mr. E. Milton Peck is now The Tattler representative in Washington. He will be glad to receive news items, applications for advertising space and to give any information concerning The Tattler at 309 Tea street, N. W. * * The Omega Psi Phi Fraternity gave its first dance last week. * * Mr. Charles Johnson is back in town. Will New York miss him, much, or is it vice versa. * * The Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, XI Chapter, has a new home at 10th and Tea streets N. W. * * The Mardi Gras at Lincoln Colonade was indeed a grand revelle to the season's many social functions. Other than the young fellows who have just arived at Howard, and who made up the "Awed Wall-Flower Corps" everybody had a grand time. The one lady who wore a mask was quite an attraction and there was much speculation as to the identity of the unknown flapper. Doc Perry's jazz was oh so good. Miss Hope and Mr. Popel gathered several tangos as did Miss Wright and Dr. Pink Newman. Miss Williams and Lord Brooks, Miss Black and Mr. I. C. Mitchell himself stuck to the old fashioned one-step. Miss Dulaney and Mr. Jones, Miss Shackelford and Mr. Stewart, Miss Vashti Maxwell the charming Baltimore High School lady and Mr. Styles, Miss Terel and Mr. Martin and most everybody was there. The Prince of ministers the Reverend Dr. Smith observed the trips of the fantastic with a wishful eye. * * Dr. Freck Boone was conspicuous by his absence at the Mardi Gras. Well he is saving for the little store down home. * * Mr. Leo Holton, star center, is doing well this year, he's getting hard, only has a busted thumb, one black eye and seven scratches.
Holton and Mr. "Cabbage" Melton, the pride of New Orleans, say that training is a joke, better look out Mr. Law. * * * If your newsdealer does not have The Tattler have him write E. Milton Peck at 309 Tea street, N. W.

The Restaurant Men's Convention which was held here last week was a big success. Restauranturs from all parts of the country were present. Hundreds of time-saving devices were introduced to the trade. War has been declared on unsanitary restaurants and "eight day waiters and cooks." * * * Mr. J. Williams, Clifford Washington's famous dance and colored picture promoter has been appointed manager of the Lincoln Theatre here. * * * We extend our deepest sympathy to Mr. A. W. Laws, one of Washington's veteran barbers who mourns the loss of his wife, Mary, who died Monday evening, October 9th. * * * The Young People's Club of Lincoln Temple. Memorial Church here gave a very successful dance and Mardi Grass at the Lincoln Colinade last week. Miss Ellis Palmer, president of the club, made a big hit in her costume. Miss Palmer is one of the ardent workers in the new building campaign. * * * Mrs. George F. Miller and Daughter Mabel were the house guests of Mr. and Mrs. Webb of 2525 Georgia avenue, N. W., while visiting here. * * * Lieut. Walter L. Wallace, President of the Colored American Picture Co., accompanied by his clever little secretary, Mrs. Rose Deskin, toured the theatres of New York City and Philadelphia last week, returns to report that they will soon start a super-photodramatic production "A Romance in Haiti," starring Anita Bush. Watch your romantic steps, Walter and Rose. * * * The wedding reception of Dr. and Mrs. Isaac N. Cupid was held at the residence of the bride's mother, Mrs. Adelle Freeman of 1718 Ninth street, N. W., Friday evening, October 20th. The bride was formerly Miss Minerva Geneva Freeman a teacher in the public schools here and sister of Benjamin and Lloyd Freeman of Harlem. Dr. Cupid is well known in musical circles here and a former student of Howard University.
HOWARD ELEVEN DOWNS
VIRGINIA SEMINARY IN
INITIAL GRIDIRON
GAME BY SCORE
OF 6 TO 0
Washington, D. C.—Howard University wins in initial football game of the season against Virginia Theological Seminary and College, Lynchburg, Virginia, by a score of 6 to 0. A large and enthusiastic crowd witnessed the game as much interest is being centered in the "blue and white" eleven which is to meet Lincoln University on Thanksgiving day in the "Football Classic of the Year" to be played at the American League Park, Washington. D. C.
Howard secured its score in the second quarter after getting far down into the "Theologs" territory by blocking a kick which was recovered by a Howard man and followed by a couple of line plunges and the use of a short forward pass for a touchdown. A forward pass was attempted for the extra point but the effort failed. In the third and four quarters Howard kept in the territory of the "Theologs" and a number of times

threatened their goal. The plucky Virginians fought hard and held the "white and blue" eleven from scoring again during the game. While the first game's results were not as one-sided as was expected by the Howard supporters, none the less confidence is expressed in the belief that the Howard warriors will be successful throughout the season.

All escaped serious injury except Miss Bryant who is now convalescing rapidly. * * * The Grand Fair held in Brockton, Boston's sister city, the week of October 1st, was a great success. Statistics prove that this Fair, the greatest in the entire East drew record crowds from all parts of the country and Canada, and the weather was of the best variety. * * * The two great Brockton Fair Dances held by the Vesta Club in Massasoit Hall and by the Wizards, Walter Johnson of Boston and Thomas Reid of Brockton, in Clark Hall, were as usual a great success. * * * Mr. Leon R. Exum of 14 Greenwich Park, Boston, and a party from Cambridge were stalled in Worcester, Thursday, October 5, while rushing to the Brockton Fair. They only reached Boston. * * * George Robinson, the great welterweight from Cambridge, has ruined himself with prominent boxing fans, by having stalled a fight in Boston, Saturday night. The referee stopped the dancing bout. Heavyweight Thompson of Boston, Wills' only rival, also stalled with "Tiger" Jack Dempsey, but what could be expected in an exhibition bout? * * * Mr. Harold Cornwall, all-a-round Y. M. C.

THE INTER NOS. SOCIAL CLUB DANCE TO BE A SPARKLING SPECTACULAR AFFAIR
The immediate response of acceptance by the discriminating pleasure seeking public of New York and vicinity to the invitation of the Inter Nos Social Club of Grand Central Terminal to partake of the harmony feast to be offered at the big musical extravaganza is vouchsafed by the anxious inquiries for the few remaining boxes and loges on sale at Mme.

BILLIARD NOTES
The 300 point match game of straight rail billiards of last week between E. Gibsonl Good Old Sou, and Chambers in blocks of 50 points, was won by Good Old Soul. He tok four straights. Chambers is a Joe Grim, so he has a return match on file. Evans, the pocket billiardist, got a set back from Peckskill in a little set at straight rail billiards. He
THE HOTEL TATTLER
tried to give Peekskill a little Jew. Peekskill brought home the bacon. Peekskill says if he will play 18-2 no handicaps will be asked. The management of the club has been requested by the Executive Board to curtail the "butinskeys" and game keepers, as several of the new members do not realize that the club is quite a different place from the regular public room. The matter will be personally taken up by the Secretary and Manager.
The week of October 3rd, was a bad week for Whittie.. Not only did George Williams beat him, but he met a couple of hold-up men on his way home after the game who relieved his of $200, and some change overlooking his roll of $50. Whittie always was a careful fellow. Hereafter he will catch his car on the 135th and Lenox instead of 135th and 5th Ave.
Manager Willis is sending out radiograms for Billiard players who can make an average of 4 or more to take part in the National Championship Tournament among colored players. Substantial cash prizes will be given to the men pushing 1.2.3. as well as the Championship cup. Hurley and Williams are the two latest executive members to arrive home from the sea shore. Both report successful seasons. Hommie Frazier is now connected at the Lavefett as Second man.

There seems to be a Billiard war on between the two proposed proprietors of the two new big rooms to be located on Lenox Ave., 130th St., Hutchinson; 129th, Smith. It looks as if outside capital is being brought in Harlem to open these big rooms. With the idea of shutting out the little fellows. One of the supposed backers, not being satisfied with fleecing the neighborhood with his sure thing Pawn broker shop, is now going after our nickles to invest in Riverside property. The other finds billiards so poor on Lexington Ave., he is, it is said, doubled up with another white second-hand table man to get in on the other corner. What is the colored room owner doing? Now, if they had their own little organization, a meeting of which has been called so many times with no sincere response, something might be done to protect these social nickels from going to our white friends, who have no interest in or social claims on the race.

DR. JOHNSTONE VINDICATED.
Rumor Against Popular Foot Specialist Denied.
The following letters from Mr. and Mrs. Chas. De Van and Dr. Vincent have been received at The Tattler office bearing their personal signatures, to vindicate the
M. H.
false rumors current in Harlem concerning Dr. Johnstone. To Whom It May Concern:
"I wish it definitely known and clearly understood that Dr. Clarence N. Johnstone, foot specialist of 222 W. 135th St., is in no way responsible for my condition. I visited Dr. Johnstone's offices, 18 months ago for treatment of a condition which I believed to be of a local nature, thinking the pains in my limbs were due to my arches. Dr. Johnstone baked me and massaged me by electric currents and at the time advised me to consult my physician, stating that my condition was due to a systemic disturbance over which he had no control. I have great confidence in Dr. Johnstone's ability as a foot specialist.
Signed, C. DE VAN Mrs. De Van Supports Husband's Statement:
In further support of what my husband Mr. Chas., De Van has said, I wish to say that Dr. Clarence N. Johnstone, foot specialist is in no way responsible for Mr De Van's condition. On May 7th, 1921, one year and a half ago Mr. De Van called at Dr. Johnstone's office to be treated for weak arches and pain in the legs.
Dr. Johnstone, at that time baked him and told Mr. De Van his trouble was due to a systemic disturbance and advised him to see his family physician. Mr. De Van visited at least four chiropodists other than Dr. Johnstone since his visit to the latter's office and finally consulted his physician. When Mr. De Van went to the hospital the doctors there used the same method of treatment as did Dr. Johnstone, namely electric baking. Mr. De Van's condition is due to diabetes and not blood poison. I wish to emphasize the fact that Dr. Johnstone is in no way responsible and I have absolute confidence in his ability as a foot specialist. Signed.
MRS. CHAS. DE VAN. Dr. U. Conrad Vincent's treatment: Dr. U. C. Vincent, surgeon, of 207 W. 135th St., has taken a deep interest in the work of Dr. Clarence N. Johnstone, of 222 W. 135th St., as a foot specialist, and has heard the rumor to the effect that Dr. Johnstone is responsible for the present condition of Mr. Chas. De Van. Seeing an attempt on the part of some malicious persons to malign the reputation of Dr. Johnstone, Dr. Vincent says that there was nothing. In Dr. Johnstone's method of treatment, which consisted of electric baking and massage, to cause any systemic troubles such as Mr. De Van suffered. Dr. Vincent heartily approves of Dr. Johnstone's methods of treatment and is happy to recommend him to his patients.
AT THE LAFAYETTE THEATRE NEXT WEEK
"Laffin Thu 1922," a satirical revue is better than any musical comedy shown in New York City is season, says a New York City critic in discussing this attraction which opens a week's engagement at the Lafeyette Theatre starting with a matinee.
This attraction was produced by S. W. Manheim and W. J. Vail, who have lavished money on the production. These producers have gathered a brilliant group of plays to interpret the many sparkling situations of an unroariously funny book. The music and lyrics are equally as good and both have received unstinted praise. Harry Seymour, the featured player is a comedian well known here and he has for able assistants, George Shelton Rose Allen, Al Bolasco, Al Golden, Collette Batste and a rare collectio nof beatuties. Daily matinees will be given, and a midnight show Friday.
THE TURF CLUB.
Big vaudeville concert and dance given by the Turf Club popular Harlem organization, will be held at New Star Casino, 107th St. and Lexington Ave., on Sunday night Nov. 26th. Walter Searcy, who is president of the club, promises to present to the public eight all-star acts, each one in itself a headliner. He hopes to meet you at the Turf Club ball. Don't forget the date.

LINCOLN UNIVERSITY FEATS HARRISBURG
Lincoln University, Pa., Oct. 14. In a one-sided game on Saturday the Orange and Blue boys showed mid-season form in downing the Harrisburg Y. M. C. A. lads. The game started when Harrisburg kicked to Lincoln. The Lincoln boys received the kick and started tearing down the field. 'Quarterback McLean forward passed to Hogans, the speedy end who caught the ball and raced through the outstretched hands of the Harrisburg tacklers for a touch down. The cheering section were wild in their acclamations of this quick scoring. Harrisburg decided to receive the kick off after Lincoln had scored the goal through a pretty drop kick by Wilson. Harrisburg tried several line plunges gaining no ground, then resorted to an aerial attack which also failed, due to the strong defensive work of the Lions, especially Captain Coston, Sty. Wood and Hogans. Lincoln got the ball when Harrisburg fumbled and started down the field again, making many gains. Wilson and Johnson carrying the ball. Johnson having been sent in by Coach Law to take the place of O. W. Brown. When in striking distance of the goal, McLean, the plucky little quarterback running the ball for another touchdown. Wilson kicking another goal for the Lions. After the second touchdown, Harrisburg attempted to hold Lincoln by sending in new men, but this was of no avail. When the whistle blew for the first half. Lincoln was on Harrisburgs one-yard line.
In the second half Lincoln marched up and down the field almost as will. Coach Law sending in his second and third string players. Pollit the Newport. R. L., find, scoring a touchdown for the Lions as did R. W. Johnson. In the last few minutes of play, Byrd the second string quarterback, who is now playing a wonderful game this year, gave the spectators a thrill by receiving a forward pass, dodging many tacklers nad streaking thirty yards down the field for the final touchdown of the game. Wilson kicking the goal, making the score 34-0. The ball was put in play, but the whistle blew ending the game. The cheering section then rushed on the field, throwing hats away and did a snake dance up and down the field, coming to a halt after a time in the center of the field to sing the Alma Mater. From all indications, Coach Law of the Lincoln Lions is turning out a football team which will bring glory and honor to Lincoln. Everyone is striving hard to back up the coach so Thanksgiving Day will really be feast day for the Lions.

DIVORCE ACTION STARTED Threatened to Shoot Wife. Please don't lock me up. "Oh, please. I didn't know he was a married man." These are words which it is alleged were uttered by a very frightened disappointed, light brown skin lady, who gave her name as Mrs. E. Williams of Nyack, N. Y., some time after midnight Saturday, October 14th, at 100 West 141st street, apartment 34, when found in bed fast asleep, in the loving arms of Edwin Bancroft, owner of the flat; who himself was scared to death after he and his 'Sweetie' were rudely awakened out of their deep slumber, by his wife, Mrs. May Bancroft of 14 West 138th street and several witnesses along with a group of secret service operatives, from the Bouline National Detective Agency of 206 Broadway, and new up-town office 2376 7th avenue (near 139th street) who conducted the investigations. It is alleged that when the raiding party entered the 'Love Nest' of Bancroft, after the lights were turned on, the young and attractive wife, had some difficulty in ascertaining what part of the 'Siamese Twins' lying in the bed was her own husband; and it is further reported, that it took quite a number of strong arm detectives to separate Bancroft from his 'Deary,' both of whom were clad in the latest Garden of Eden style. Of course, Mrs. Bancroft is now filing suit in the Supreme Court, for absolute divorce, asking for $25 per week alimony, and $450 counsellor fee through her attorney. Abe Beerman, 346 Broadway. She alleges that although she was forced to work and support herself, having to turn over all her weekly earnings to her husband who in turn rewarded her with cruel and inhuman treatment; beating her several times (some-think like a carpet) blackened and closed her eyes with one of those Harry Wills punches, which kept her in bed for over three weeks. On another occasion, she alleges, he struck her in her side with a piece of furniture, making an operation necessary, the result from which she is now suffering.

She further claims, that he kept a 38 caliber gun and a number of bullets with which he threatened to kill her on several occasions if she refused to love, honor, and obey him, or ever attempt to leave him. Just a few months ago, she alleges, she was compelled to flee to her mother for refuge, when he got into a rage claiming his dinner was late, took out his gun, and threatened to transform her into an angel. She finally succeeded in stealing the gun, and made her escape. Bancroft is a native of Barbadoes, British West Indies, is employed at the Interboro power house, 96th street and Broadway and also a prominent member of the Mechanics and other lodges.

"INTERESTING NEWS WELL FEATURED"
Andrew E. Brown, Contributor
Jim Stange certainly looked strange in that conservative chauffeur suit that he wore to the Fan Tans matinee dance last Thursday. Jim was your car outside?
Bill Jackson seemed capable of out talking Paul Johnson at the matinee dance, but Mr. Johnson held his own with pretty Miss Rita Johnson and Miss Leona Small, although Bill sure got his say with Ethel Caldwell.
Next time Jim Newson don't be so anxious for me to say something scandalous about your pals, you sure didn't behave yourself any too good.
There is no doubt that Paul Jones is the leader of the younger set of Brooklyn. He meets two and three a night, I mean that they are Perf, and at a dance he has them all, Paul let me pal with you? Then again Paul what will happen to you when your wings are fully grown. Dick Richard was seen waiting at the Brooklyn Bridge on Oct. 9, what for and who we can't say, but he was standing there at least two hours. Please tell me Eddie Taylor who that pretty brown was, that you had at the Fan Tans, they tell me you refused to introduce her to anyone. Look out Eddie someone intends to smoke you off.
Why can't William Lewis keep out of Jersey City? Willie you are only spending time and your good money.
I must retract my statement of last week in regard to Cliff Williams and his Cousin Bennie, since then Cliff has proven that he is very capable of holding his own at all times.
Our distinguished friend Jake Baxter and Allie Wilson certainly enjoyed themselves at the Fashion Show last Friday night. I like you Jake—but please tell the darling that I am innocenc to that charge.
Miss Helen Nelson must be congratulated, her gown was a splendid distinctness at the Fashion Show, Miss Nelson has just returned from a tour of the New England States, and we just knew she would do her stuff and if it had been a beauty contest instead, there would have been very little competition. What a surprise was given us when Miss Agnes Bailey entered the hall with that pretty smile that we have been missing. Miss Hazel Brown, Vera Spratly and Fanny Cook all of Newark came over, and took the place by storm, never looked better.
M. P. so you would like to know Miss Cook, well you will meet her soon and that will be all. I promise you that much. Buckie Morton has discarded that spring hat and stepped out with an awful derby. Did your Brother lend you that Buckie.
The Monday Circle Club gave their annual Fashion Show last Friday evening at the Arcadia Hall, which certainly was a wonderful success. It greatly exceeded the expectations of everyone. Approximately two thousand people were present. There is no doubt that everyone seemed to realize that it was the best that Brooklyn has brought forth in many years. The program girls were the select ones of Brooklyn, and looked excellent in their costumes. Again we extend hearty congratulations to Mrs. M. Hamilton for the effort that she always puts forth to make these affairs a huge success.
I met Joe Posey last Sunday, why does he go to those places that are censored?
Mr. William Reid certainly takes a keen interest in the pinks, Bill don't you like what you have been in the habit of being with?
Mr. Charlie Morton has become so good at carrying a tray that he can last all night on Sundays without any mishaps.

But when the Sterling orchestra played he would have had a chance.

Chorus Ladies
You are the ornament of any stage;
On Broadway you're the biggest rage.
Your many charms we all adore;
So read below and don't get sore.
A musical show without a chorus is like a bottle of beer without alcohol. It's mild; but it don't seem to satisfy. The relation of the chorus girl to the theatre is that of the spark-plug to the Ford: she rattles things up. She may have no voice, but there's other good points. That is: metaphorically speaking. Figuratively speaking; well, there are no points to discuss.
Yes; they may not sing beautifully, but they're all beautiful singers. They may not display much histrionic ability, but what they do display is far better. And if they never speak lines, well, who cares? We like to look at them.
Back stage of these shows there are no dressing-rooms; never. "Un-dressing-rooms" is the term. And when the poor dears say they earn a bare living; well they do. But not financially speaking; just figurative language once more. Because we all know if it's a good revue then the view is good also.
Have you noticed that Sheik Harty has taken Dummie Squire's Sheba from him? Now, Carrie, we thought you were true to Dummie. Jamaica is not any further than Fifty-ninth St. for the heart. Variety affords the spice of life and a motive for many divorces. Say, what's the attraction for the Oak Leaf, especially Messrs. Cofer and Harty, in the ground floor window of 55 W. 131st St. Who is the tall mysterious Miss Williams that Walter Scott met at a party in July? From his raving, she must be some Sheba. Introduce us. Walter.

There is many a man who thinks that he can read a woman like a book, but he gets fooled when he tries to shut her up. Nelle McDonald and Eula Mac Walton are seen frequently horseback riding Sunday afternoons in West Central Park. They say it is fine sport. The Tattler compliments them in their stunning riding attire. Talk may be cheap, but there's no getting away from it, that the love prattle of a pretty girl is dear. Say, Mrs. Hunter, we will not let you chaperon T. and B. if you cannot do better than you did Saturday night.
It is a remarkable fact that the biggest fools marry the prettiest women. Say Sheiks, you missed it at Happy's last Tuesday night. The Urban League had all the vamps waiting on the guests. Believe me, they got it all. Dr. Gertrude Curtis made a pretty cigarette girl at Happy's at the Urban League tip benefit. Mary Straine still holds her own. She is appearing at Happy's in the absence of Lena Wilson. Remember that no one can be as fit as a fiddle who is tight as a drum.

"IT'S THE TALK OF THE TOWN" THE HOTEL TATTLER
Geneva Cornwall, popular damsel from Columbus, S. C., who is spending some time in our midst, entertained with a hilarious party in honor of her uncle, Richard Ellis in his well appointed apartment in W. 131st St. The affair was largely attended by a "regular" bunch of joy-makers and pleasure seekers. A host of delicacies, such as Turkey salad, Virginia Ham, Parker House Rolls and an abundance of rare liquids composed of the most interesting part of the occasion. The following names appeared on the register at the close of the evening: Hazel Cole-Preston
"dainty pianist"; Alma Smith—cruelist, brown in town"; Bryl Hewett, "teasing vamp"; Billy Cain, "they may come tall, but she tops them all"; Madeline Odlum, "good girl gone wrong"; May Hart, "very good, still quite easy"; Rosie Guillard, "fairest of vamps"; Jennie Haskins, "a regular fellow"; Marie Ellis, "Dick's niece"; Bob Moseley, "King Sheik"; Billy Carroll, "Ladies delight"; Gene Newton, "Coal producer"; John Cobb, "All alone and no place to go": Mal Frazier, "Hello Bill"; John Carey, "Imperial Wizard"; Jerry Preston, "Tied for life"; Shelton Brooks, "hootch king"; Johnny Dunn, "Hot Lips"; DeWitt Holland, "Very good"; J. Francis Mores, "Song bird"; E. P. Palmer, "Bride and groom"; "Dick Ellis, "Sport King"; Juan Luis De La Huerta, "lovable chap" and Floyd G. Snelson, Jr., "The Tattler."

Say, D. Coleman of 221 W. 140th street, who was the new vamp you were with and took home from the Camp Fire Girls Dance on Monday night. Give a single boy a chance, old sheik.
Say, D. Gibson of 117 West 137th street, what's the matter with your Brooklyn Sheik, J. G.? He looks rather funny since he made and you made the trip to Atlantic City. And did he lose his job, too?
Wonder what happened with Willie Grant, the famous piano player and his Big Brown, Miss Hopkins? Look out, Lucy Bailey, Daniel Fels and Thornton Williams, we'll make you win the next prize, old luck box. You can't keep a good man down. Mr.Daniel Fells was seen at The Tattler's Ball with some Pretty Pinks. Iris Saunders seems to be worrying everyone but W. S. Look out, John Mullen, the wonder violinist, Earl Dancer is still starring Willie Grant around here and Jersey. You haven't made any hit with Miss Hopkins.
We consider that little Champ, the head waitress at Happy's Club is using bad judgment in making a poor waitress pay 55c for an electric bulb broken by a guest.
A certain young lady in 204 W. 140th street should be very careful strutting that Pittsburg, brown.
We wonder what has become of Aurelia Swiggetts beautiful curls. A wig is out of the question.
Flushing, L. I., what did you do to Bernice? We don't see her any more.
Strange how some Shebas' fancies run toward married Sheiks! While the cats are away the mice will play, but a word to the wise is sufficient. Remember Clauta and
Rosemary, murder will out and your mysterious movements will be disclosed yet. Hey! Hey! Downtown vamps, where were you Thursday, Saturday and Oh! boy, Sunday?
Some say seventh avenue looked like winter last Thursday evening but the (Hudson Seals) strolling up the avenue in review past the association was only Margie Harris, Rita Walker, and a few more shebas, probably just leaving the polls.

Ruth Stanford, the little dancer is trying to hold George Rannie, one of the 7th avenue sheiks from continually blocking traffic on 139th street with his friends E. S. and C. P. Mr. T. W. offered a great helping hand to the Urban League drive on Sunday past by making some people think there was a circus going on. He eats free. Royal Banks is still king of his domain on 129th street, regardless of C. P.'s efforts to dethrone him. We are all wondering how some parties can afford to ride 7th ave. in one of the DeLux Taxis every Sunday. Canes and everything
Phillips of Brooklyn was seen at The Tattler's Ball in company of a charming young lady. Who is she? By the way, if they were giving prizes for fashion for men he would be among the first.

Last week on Seventh avenue, near 135th street, I was passing and saw a smartly dressed couple having a little spat. The moment I passed I heard the lady say, "You're fooling with the wrong Gal now." Then I thought what a knockout title for a song, so I put on my brakes and lingered near. From the conversation I finished a complete song with the above title. The song has been accepted for publication by the Chateau Music Pub. Co., 1547 Broadway. Any person wishing to hear this comical conversation can hear Josie Miles sing it on the Black Swan record, which will be released on the 25th. Yet, they wonder where we get the inspiration: Roland C. Irving, composer and song writer.
Fitz, of course was at Happy's. Wifie was there also. To cap it all he tipped the pretty Bessie Bearden a ten spot for the Urban League and fell asleep on the table. Olive Thomas, the latest society catch of the season was at Happy's with the gang. Of course the Urban League was the cause. Johnnie Powell, the Prop. of the Capitol Palace, dined at Happy's on Tuesday. The big tip was for the Urban League. All that is needed to appreciate these daring crepe de chine dresses—is to see them in the right light.
Dr. Benj. Withers had some time on Tuesday evening, at the Urban League night at Happy's. Society matrons and debs. cleaned up at Happy's. They were the best kind of service givers, but oh! boy, they got the tips all right. There are only two kind of men who don't understand women. They are the married men and the single men. Mr. C. Arthur Rhone, proprietor of the Famous Society Rendezvous, gave his place, risking the service of his patrons to Charity on Tuesday evening. The occasion being a tip benefit for the Urban League.
I notice Cora Morgan was strutting her stuff up at Happy's. Willie of Brooklyn was there. Old sparks will kindle.
How is it that the pretty girls get all the praise, and the clever girls get all the husbands.
Say, folks; meet the "Back-Biters'" Club; Julius Worrell, "Feet" Washington, Percy Sears, Ainslee Eaton and "Tiny" Tyres.
Notice—These young men are guaranteed to bite anybody in the back; anytime, anywhere, and any place. All sheiks beware!
Yes, now that vacations are at an end, the girls all say: "Just-
"NEWS FROM EVERYWHERE"
think of the chances we had." And now the men all say: "Gee! think of the chances we took." William Reid, headwaiter, Ft. William Henry, Lake George, N. Y., arrived in the city full of smiles. His application for membership in the "Scotchmans" was unanimously received and after initiation was elected president of the "Scotchmans'" Club. Mr. Reid is a Scotchman whose reputation is universal and as a Scotchman he is an added benefit to the success of the association.
We are wondering who it was Happy interviewed with the Black and White U. W. in honor of his place. He slipped her a buck.
I wonder why Miss Chase held Mr. Herb. Johnson in the corner at Happy's on Tuesday evening and stopped him from playing. Happy's guests got sore, 'cause they missed the music. Maybe she got it all.
Don't worry Ainslee, Cabbage won't bite you in the back—hard.
The good looking vamp, Miss Gussie, was strutting her stuff in box A at The Tattler's ball. Her Daddy Watson was keeping an eye on her for he sure is crazy about his fair brown.
Henry Styles waits patiently for his movie actress to return from Virginia.
Miss L. R. Bailey's success at The Tattler's ball last Wednesday will make her forget her troubles, we hope.
Lawrence Wilson made a hasty trip last Saturday night to Boston on business and pleasure.
B. B. will not stay out so late next time. Mother is getting tight on her.
Pauline Miller of Philadelphia has her eyes on all the Sheiks. Better watch out, girls.
Frank Goode feels lonesome now that winter is so near and wants to start a social club. We wish him luck.
We wonder what has become of the little school teacher, G. Perkins?
Bernice Wilson, when are you and Mercer Cook to tie the knot?
We don't see Harry Des V. waiting in the subway anymore. Has she gone back to her husband?
Why did Hightower and Hester sign their names as Mr. and Mrs. Howard at the Hotel Olga on Sunday? Did Bill Evan, the chauffeur, marry them before going back to Washington, D. C.?
Marie Jackson certainly looked good at The Tattler's ball. Who were the vamps in your box, Marie? Your Sheik didn't leave you a minute. Why not give some other fellows a chance?
Mae Price, the pretty little vamp of 135th St., really looked keen at The Tattler's ball. She had plenty of Sheiks.
Henrietta Morris, Leola Barnes, Marie Jackson and Minervah Barco took a trip up the Hudson. Some jolly bunch.
Minervah Barco and Marie Jackson had quite some party up at Happy's on Sunday. They really looked good. Who were the Sheiks?

Marie Mahood, the cute little toe dancer from Flushing, is now giving dancing lessons.
Thelma Whittaker, our little dancing demon, is expected out in Flushing Saturday.
Say, Alice Allison, pretty soon you'll be strutting a cane. Some class to the Russian boots.
A gang of Debs were noticed congregated on Seventh Ave., waiting for their Rolls-Royce. He's in business now.
The dance given at the Urban League last Saturday night was quite successful and many pretty maidens from Morris ave. were seen. Page Thomas Rhone. Oh! La! La! Helen Thompson certainly does like tea, If I had as much jack as Jervy Wilson, I could sit down all day and drink tea. Miss Who-is-this from Morris Ave. denies it. Joe Meyes says that while strutting up Seventh Ave. by the Urban League on Sunday, he was relieved of his bank roll.
Say, Ethel Moses, who's the new daddy?
.
Mr.. Tisdale is some Samaritan, having to take Mrs. Miller home from Happy's on Tuesday evening. Watch your step, ole top.
Say, Tisdale, you are warned that a popular young Sheik is on your track.
What's going to happen to Capt. Wilson? He refused a drink at Happy's. Guess he was scared of a tip.
Where can you find three-real "Bown Sugar Maids" to beat Billie Marshall, Billie Sheeki and her sister, Alice? Did you see them at Happy's Tuesday evening? Take it easy!
Jimmie Lightfoot must be afraid of his sister Lena, he was absent from Happy's Tuesday evening. Victor Morley, Sheik of the Garden of Joy, was with a new vamp Miss L. S., at Happy's Tuesday evening. John Brent leaves for Los geles on Saturday, on busi Happy's is flooded with tears. course the Sheiks are glad, bu is a good boy, so we say " voyage."
The friends of Mr. W Smith are glad to welcome back after a brief stay, visit mother in Warrington, Va are afraid that the hat h from Mr. "Bill" will never head. All Scotchmans' assembled. Who was left behind with a broken heart at Grand Central station on Sunday, when the train left for Sunny California with the dainty damsel on board? Please page the blonde Sheik. Irene Jones, formerly of Washington, D. C., is now a resident of Saratoga ,and we note that she is still being entertained by the Glens Falls Sheiks.
William Booker of College Station will be seen in the future walking to Long Island since the little Chevrolet is in "cold storage."
Ruth Morgan and Grace LeCooke two charming damsels of 138th street are spending a couple of weeks in Washington, D. C. giving the sheiks of U street a play, they are having a wonderful time.
More power to you George Buckner, Miss Y. is some vamp. A reader.
Carrie Elmore had a birthday Wednesday, which is a strange thing for her to have so close to Christmas, Gordon was as happily as she was.
Anna Walker is back in delphia on a visit, enjoy wonders of Quaker town. Connie Wannamaker queen of Atlantic City is spend some time in the city visiting friends and sheiks. Somebody saw Lucile Parke Penn. station on her way to bury and she didn't even say bye.

Our fund of knowledge is ever increasing because we absorb the mental force from those who, because of their wealth and position, have been able to acquire from the very best schools at home and abroad. Our education is largely shaped by actual experience and we are better fitted to accomplish the practical things of life than many who are entirely dependant upon what they have learned from books. It has been our desire for a long time to give these workers an opportunity to display their talent that the public may get the benefit of their knowledge. The work of The Tatler has met their approval and the support they are giving it is indeed a grateful reward.

Six months ago, when we first began our hazardous journey upon the sea of journalism, we were discouraged on all sides. The wise ones said "What fools ye mortals be." But with the vision of a prophet we saw the need for a real, live, snappy social journal that would give publicity to social gossip and would act as a mirror in reflecting our feminine beauties. At much expense and with the conviction of our courage we accomplished one of the greatest journalistic feats ever attempted by our Race. We were really amazed after two or three weeks to find ourselves forced to increase our output 2,500 to 5,000 and today we boast of a circulation of ). Then came the beauty contest, which aroused interest over the country, followed by the announcement of The Tattler's ball and Fashion Review. There were the usual sneers 1 jeers and the wise old prophets that predicted failure. But last the date arrived and the affair was staged; with theult that over 4,000 Tattler Boosters declared it to be the test affair ever given in New York City.
It is the policy of The Tattler to show the silver lining and to boost rather than to knock. However, we had advanced information that certain of our contemporaries, with whom we refused to place an Ad for The Tattler's Ball, were going to pay a certain element to visit the New Star Casino to start trouble that they might be able to headline their "Hair" sheet that they call a newspaper, with "Murder at the Tattler's Ball." However, being law abiding citizens, we applied for police protection and officers Battles, Agard and a dozen others in plain clothes were on hand to break up their little parties as fast as they tried to stage them. But however black the self-appointed guardians of public morals and safety try to paint The Tattler's Ball and regardless of what they may say about the character of the men and women attending it, they will not be able to change the concensus of opinion of everybody worth while, except themselves, in New York City, that it was one of the grandest affairs ever given in New York City.
We are indeed proud of the great success of The Tattler's Ball and take this opportunity to express our gratitude to the 400 who voiced their approval and will shower utter condem- pon any little dingy "sheet" that tries to besmirch the name of The Tattler and its many thousand friends and ers.

ing from the height from which he was thrown, upon the stand, upon which he was standing. It was miraculous how he could turn in the air and catch on his right hand, arm and side. The double shock has severely impaired his vitality. However, he is gradually improving, and will endeavor to speak next Sunday morning, from the subject, "Will a Man Rob God." Among the speakers who supplied the pulpit for the past five weeks were Dr. Ressler of the New York White Evangelistic Committee and Rev. Dr. W. V. Cholmondeley of the Episcopal Mission of Brooklyn, whose services were satisfactory. We all were glad to have them with us. The concert last Thursday evening was a decided success.
Among the talents who appeared on the program were: Misses Catherine and Elizabeth Handley the daughters of the famous music writer Mr. W. C. Handley, Miss Lennon and Mr. Monroe, student, Union Theological Seminary and Mr. H. L. Holsey, famous tenor, and Prince Oscarzuma, Indian Caracturist and mimic entertainer. The Rev. Dr. W. V. Cholmondeley was master of ceremonies.
Sunday morning the Sunday School was reorganized with Dr. Summers as their superintendant. Miss Berthat Price, was elected secretary, Miss Elizabeth Handley, assistant secretary and Miss Wyzie Livingston, Treasurer and Miss Elizabeth Thomas, Organist. The bible school begins at 10 o'clock Sunday mornings in the main auditorium downstairs of the New Douglas Theatre. Public and Sunday school children are cordially invited to attend these services. Preaching services at 11 a. m.
New York City. Oct. 14th, 1922. Mr. Floyd G. Snelson, Editor Hotel Tattler. Dear Sir: Allow me to extend to you a few words of congratulations appropriate to such an occasion as that of last Wednesday evening, Oct. 11th.
Never before in the history of this community has there been any entertainments—any reviews as the gigantic ball and fashion show which graced New Star Casino under the supervision of The Hotel Tattler on the memorable night of Oct. 11th. Every one present seemed to have had a grand and glorious feeling every one was, filled, thrilled with fantastic joys never felt before. Even gay Paris would have marvelled could she have been permitted to behold the sights which went to make The Tattler's ball a success.
May the seeds The Tattler sown today fall on good ground and in time to come bear forth good fruits that so every one may be glad at heart and these day's toiling shall not have been spent in vain. An earnest reader,

SENATOR CALDER AND THE DYER ANTI-LYNCHING BILL |
1 j t 7 , v3 ; 3 Se pete
To the Hotel Fraternity :
Violating the sanctity of human life and disregarding the dignity of the
law by denial of the right of trial by a jury of his peers, the crime of Lynching
is most terribly felt by the members of the Colored Race. For trivial offenses
men and even women, particularly in the South, feel the oppression of this blow
against the guarantee of life and liberty found in the Constitution. The Dyer
Bill, making Lynching a Federal Offense passed the House of Representatives
by Republican votes, and was opposed even by a majority of Northern Demo-
crats. It is now on the calendar of the U. S. Senate awaiting final passage.
Senator Calder loyally and energetically supported the measure at every
opportunity in the Senate fight when Democratic Senators were filibustering to
prevent the measure reaching a vote. e
At every stage of this great fight he has been tireless on the floor of the
Senate, in his activities in the Senate party caucus and influencing public opinion
at large. - .
Secretary James Weldon Johnson of the National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People, who is in charge of the National fight to
secure the passage of this bill said in a letter to Senator Calder recently: “I
WISH TO RENEW TO YOU OUR THANKS for the great service which
you have rendered in advancing the progress of THE DYER ANTI-LYNCH-
.ING BILL IN THE SENATE.”
;....Hon. Henry Lincoln Johnson, member of the Republican National Com-,
té¢ and. Chairman of the National Committee on Legislative Relief for Colored
iohaStimmary of the committee’s efforts to secure the passage of
méasures relating #,;Colored People and the attitude of U. S. Senators toward
them says: a . :
“Senator Wm.&M.Calder of New York State, always easy. of
approach—a self- é;business man, _understands, *aiidsympathizes
__~ with the needs, hopes aiid-ambitions of thaverage man. Therefore,
every single measure that has tended to aid our Race in the country
has had the loyal support of Senator Calder. I have called upon
him for aid in all of our fights, the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill—the
Howard University Fight—the District Schools—the Bills for the
enforcement ‘of the 14th and 15th Amendments—and the Federal
Educational Bill—and he has always been responsive, not only in
spirit, but energetically in person.”
The Alumni and every Colored Person interested in Howard University
should organize a Committee to work for Senator Calder.

WHY IS IT THAT A COLORED MAN OR
WOMAN SHOULD NOT VOTE FOR A
NORTHERN DEMOCRAT FOR THE U. S.
CENATE ?
Senators or Congressmen do not belong to the local subdivisions from
which they are elected but to the nation at large. They legislate for the whole
country. The Democratic Party nationally has been the traditional enemy of
the Race for over half a century. The Colorphobists, the Democratic traducers
of the Race and the political demagogues who denounce the hopes and aspira-
tions of the Colored People control the Democratic Party. They control the
caucus of the Democratic Party in the Senate—these include such shining
stars of bourbon dernocracy as Senator Pat Harrison of Mississippi, Helfin of
Alabama, Caraway of. Arkansas and Smith of South Carolina.
Legislation in Congress is controlled by Committees and the party caucus.
When a National Democrat is elected to Congress he lays aside the garments of
individuality and becomes reduced to the consistency of his party caucus and
subject to its policies. His committee assignments and his work in the Senate,
are dictated by Senator Underwood of Alabama—and the new senator at once
enters a Party Caucus presided over by Pat Harrison of Mississippi, pledged
to support its decisions and all his associates are avowed enemies of the Colored
Race, who control and domniate all of his legislative actions. The Democratic
Party caucus has always voted against every measure that would. elevate and
advance the Colored Race. The Democratic Caucus voted to oppose the Dyer
Anti-Lynching Bill. We cannot afford to give aid and comfort to‘the enemies
of our Race by sending a Democrat to the Senate from this State. ered
A VOTE FOR SENATOR WILLIAM M. CALDER IS A VOTE TO
CONTINUE THE CIVIC PRORGESS OF OUR RACE.
A VOTE FOR CALDER IS A VOTE TO STOP THE CRIME OF
LYNCHING.
«A VOTE FOR CALDER IS A VOTE AGAINST THOSE BOURBON
SOUTHERN DEMOCRATS WHO CONTROL THE DEMOCRATIC
PARTY NATIONALLY AND INSULT AND RIDICULE THE RACE
AT EVERY OPPORTUNITY.
WHEN YOU GO TO THE.POLLS YOU WILL FIND THE BALLOT
A VERY LONG ONE. IT*IS THE PARAMOUNT OBLIGATION AND

With the first month of school
past in this city, fall activities have
begun in earnest among the vari-
ous clubs and local organizations

are meeting each Tuesday at the
offices of the company and hope to
bring much interest and informa-
tion concerning Supreme Life in
this state. The purpose of the or-
ganization is to study the busi-
ness of insurance in all its phases
and especially where the needs of
the race is concerned. The offi-
cers are Mr. J. E. Stratom, presi-
