No. 32 THE GEORGIA LECHLATURE WOULD THROTTLE SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH. W ERL, you descended from the Ape? Do you think the way to prove that you were not is to throttle scientific research into the subject? Do you believe in evolution, that all animal and plant and other life was created out of hand or gained form and substance by the evolutionary processes of absorption, assimilation and elimination of foreign or weaker elements? The average reader may be disposed to ask: What has all that to do with the price of pork chops? It may have nothing to do with it, but if some crazy legislator should be slick enough to get a law enacted making the eating of pork chops with the blood thereof a felony millions of people would rise up and call him a fool and a knave, who had undertaken to do something which was none of his business, and you would have to show those pork chops eaters. The Georgia Committee on Education of the Lower House has gone on record with a bill favorably reported which would withhold State support from any school or university in which the doctrine of evolution is accepted for study. The recommendation of the committee may not be adopted by the Georgia legislature, but the action of the committee shows the drift of the Southern white mind, which reasons backward and not forward, and would throttle rather than give free rein to the spirit of scientific research, other Southern States having had the matter under adjournment. Mr. William Jennings, who is a specialist in nothing except social, civil and economic discontent, thinks as the Georgia legislative committee does on evolution. By studying the features and the thoughts and the disposition of any creature it will be easy to ascertain what group of animalism he was descended from. For instance, Mr. Darwin, who established the theory of man's descent from the Ape, looks in the face like an Ape and thinks in his writings as an Ape. A person descended from some other animal species, the horse or dog or rat or rat, say, would not reason from the Darwinian viewpoint because they neither look nor think that way, but if left free to master the Darwinian theory they would be in better position to correct his errors, if he has made any, than to close up tight the study of his works by law. That smacks of the Dark Ages, much of the thought of which prevails among the whites of the South, who think they have a right to measure everybody's mental cloth by their mental yard stick. We do not have to accept any scientific theory as final, however generally accept it may be, but if there be error we shall not be able to find and correct it if we are by law presented from studying the expiration of the theory. That is to say, is it suicidal to put legal letters on the right of research into any of the manifold forms of spirit and matter. To do so is the surest way to block the way to progress and the bringing in of new and better ways of thinking and living. They used to burn authors and their books who taught other than what the ruling powers thought to be correct and proper, but that was a long time ago and not now, when mankind never thought so rapidly and prodigiously, because there are no more letters on the right to acquire into all the hidden mysteries of mind and matter. Evolution in the watchword of discovery, of progress, such as the invention of telegraphy, of steam and electric power, wireless telegraphy and radio, and the like, from which mankind has derived so many advantages, but the scientists who thought them out would have been outlawed and perhaps murdered in other days for thinking so far in advance of the old rulers of men's thoughts and needs. Let us be thankful that the Georgia Committee on Education has put the authority to throw us back into the Dark Ages by legislating to thrill the free inquiry into all of the mysteries of spirit and matter. Science is evolution and evolution is science, and we go on from one discovery to another in the inspiration after perfection. THE COLOR BAR IN THE ARMY AND NAVY. HENRY is not any law that bans Afro-Americans out of the army and navy, but there is a law, written or unwritten that they may not enter the naval or military academies or serve in any branch of the service of either except in specified regiments and in certain arms of the service. The way is made sure for our officers and seamen and servants THE TATTLEB in all branches of the military yeanement whatever beyond a c have gotten through West Point sidetracked from start to finish. They are denied any opportunity and of getting promotion by the of our young people have been polis Naval Academy. There is the color bar, as worked by them has been sufficient to keep them getting any sort of promotion in grade, out of which white online of the time. When it is remembered the lishments are maintained for the ported by taxing all of the peas same extent, the color bar bus comes an issue of the greatest in protest and fight against until it time to get it, but as an offset that the Afro-American people a much longer time than the color. It is an unwritten law that in the Marine Corps. A case hugely features of the color bar Wright of Memphis, said to be the upstanding race financier away from home and joined the did he do it? Simply because he covered until six months after it is set up by the naval authority complaint of his mother that he the other side of the case gives is black and not white, although listed and to have served as whi South Carolina and at the Pan found to case him out of the Ma first Negro, it is said, to serve, not be the last to serve. Rumor has it that Mr. C with the Secretary of the Navy to him until he foresees a ruling service, with special reference way to break down the color against it as long as it exists, written law. in all branches of the military and naval service, with no advancement whatever beyond a certain rank. Three of our men have gotten through West Point Military Academy, only to be aided tracked from start to finish, as Col. Charles Young was. They are denied any opportunity for active service in war times and of getting promotion by the slow way of seniority; but none of our young people have been able to graduate from the Annapolis Naval Academy. There is no law to keep them out, but the color bar, as worked by the naval authorities and the cadets has been sufficient to keep them out, and to prevent them from getting any sort of promotion in the navy beyond a certain low grade, out of which white enlisted men are being promoted all of the time. When it is remembered that the military and naval establishments are maintained for the common defense and are supported by taxing all of the people in the same way and to the same extent, the color bar business in the army and navy becomes an issue of the greatest importance, which we have got to protest and fight against until it is removed. It will take a long time to get it, but as an offset to that we can say we are sure that the Afro-American people are going to be here a long time, a much longer time than the color bar. It is an unwritten law that Afro-Americans shall not serve in the Marine Corps. A case has just arisen in which all of the ugly features of the color bar are shown up. Ralph Norman Wright of Memphis, said to be a relative of Robert R. Church, the upstanding race financier and politician of Memphis, ran away from home and joined the Marine Corps at St. Louis. How did he do it? Simply because he is so white that it was not discovered until six months after that he is also black. The claim is set up by the naval authorities that he was discharged upon complaint of his mother that he enlisted when under age, but the other side of the case gives it that it was discovered that he is black and not white, although he is white enough to have enlisted and to have served as white six months at Paris Island in South Carolina and at the Panama Canal station. A way was found to case him out of the Marine Corps, in which he was the first Negro, it is said, to serve, but in which we are sure he will not be the last to serve. Rumor has it that Mr. Church has taken up the matter with the Secretary of the Navy, and we hope he will keep it up to him until he foresees a ruling on the color bar in the naval service, with special reference to the Marine Corps. The only way to break down the color bar is to protest and kick hard against it as long as it exists, whether based on written or unwritten law.

"The white administration of South Africa have the same written about the relative rights and feelings of blacks and whites that the white administration of our Southern States have. "Coursed man, named Charlie Moore," put his arm around a white woman and played in exclamation that he was drunk, "I cannot accept that as an excuse," said the white judge, "for your unimaginable conduct in insulting a responsible Kyrgyzman woman," and he went up for thirty days. Next, a young white policeman raided two Kyrgyz girls at Allanangourt and the judge gave him four years, he not considering the crime being because the Kyrgyzman had an insult like white the white Kyrgyzman man, and because a Kyrgyzman had not feel punishment as a white Kyrgyzman man, It is easy to be seen by these citations, and by thousands not unlike it, corroded from time to time in the African Native newspapers, that the African need much if not all of the self-government which Martin Curry insists that they should have, as the European makes radical distinction between the blacks and whites, as the southern whites do, so that justice is enjoined at its roots and may be said to be no justice at all. That is what it amounts to, Black and colored people everywhere, who are made the objects of the white man's anger, injustice and violence, have not to develop the principles of self-con- scious power, self-help and self-defense and the innermonges of self, in the same sense that the whites have developed it, and in the Survey training and preachment programs his membership to develop and apply it, or they will go to the way of all depren- sive people who do not successe within themselves all necessary characteristic of self-preservation.

Harden at the New York Public Schools Association Mushrooms have been used since the time of Pliny and while we are apt to think that the intensive cultivation of them has taken place only in recent times, it is a fact that the French started to raise them three or four hundred years ago. From the time that these "field knobs," as they were called, were found in spoody, damp places in which they grow so well, people have valued them for their flavor. As for good value aside from their stimulation of the appetite, they are not of particular use. The protein they contain is not digested by the body juices and other materials contained by them are of negligible importance. Some time ago it was stated that a pound of mushrooms contained as much nutritious substance as does a pound of beef. This is not true. However, they can be used in cream soups, and in many such ways act as delicious delicacies which invite us to eat the highly nutritious foods with which they are combined. "These fungi are at their best when taken fresh from our pastures, but the difficulty of selecting the nonpoisonous varieties from the poisonous is so great that consuming public has learned that it is safer to buy the cultivated and the imported product. An authority on foods has made the statement that we are not as a people, sufficiently well informed to utilize the varieties which grow near us, and he also warns us that the "numerous rules and tests published for the guidance of the initiated in the selection of wild mushrooms are likely to mislead him and cause serious results." It is all very well for the children to search out the "magic circles" (the fairy-ring mushrooms*) and try to work a spell by standing in the center on certain definitely suspicious occasions, but it is quite another thing to search out fungi and eat them. There is a quality of magic which is not at all to our liking when the wrong ones are picked. The poisonous principle of some mushrooms is not destroyed by cooking and when eaten, affect the heart, the muscles and the kidneys. It takes from six to fifteen hours for the poisoning to show symptoms and the first sign is usually sudden intense pain, followed by thirst, vomiting and diarrhea. The first case of mushroom poisoning of which we have record occurred in the family of the Greek post fourpides, who lost, in one day, his wife, daughter and two sons. COMBADES GUARD HIM Frank R. Crosswalth, known among Socialists as the "colored Debtor" because of his oratorical ability, made such a bitter attack last Saturday evening on the Ku Klux Klan before a crowd of 3,000 at Washington and Fifth Streets, Hoboken, that four of his white comrades thought it best to escort him to a car after the meeting. Crosswalth was nominated Sunday for Secretary of State on the Socialist ticket. Crosswalth run for Congress two years ago in the 21st District and and nominated A. Philip Randolph, editor, for Secretary of State in 1922. Crosswalth is organizer of the Elevator Operators and Starters' Union, Local No. 67. He has been a Socialist since 1918, having become disgusted with both of the major parties, he says, because of their indifference toward members of our group. At London, in an address before a session of the World Zionist Organization, Air Herbert Samuel, High Commissioner of Palestine, waxed enthusiastic over the upbuilding of the Jewish National Home and the general progress of Palestine, said he: "The industrial exposition in Tel-Aviv revealed the development of Palestinian industry, and was a convincing indication that Palestine may become the industrial centre of the Middle East within our generation." Sunday, August 10, 1994 POLITICS Howell of Nebraska who, it was thought, might turn to the Progressives, came out for Coolidge. Others, such as Senators Norris and Brookhart, remained on the fence. This will probably be the course of other insurgents. Meanwhile, in Chicago, Everett Sanders industriously labored to perfect a speaking program for the Republican candidates, while from politicians all over the country came word: "Send us Coolidge," "Send us Dawes," "Send us Coolidge and Dawes." Mr. Dawes decided to open his campaign with a speech at Lincoln, Neb., home of Governor Bryan, on Aug. 29. Maine will hold an election on Sept. 8 and Mr. Dawes may speak there prior to Aug. 29, but this is not to count as a speech in the National Campaign. THE CAT NEVER CAME BACK Tige Coolidge, White House cat, left on a spree one month ago. Hope of his return has now been abandoned. BRAWN MEETS BRAINS Luis Angel Firpo, strong of fist but somewhat weak of English, went to Washington for a visit. He saw Arlington Cemetery, and the Pan-American Building. His car then drove up to the White House office building. He was announced, and the President ordered him admitted. The immense man walked into the President's room, Mr. Coolidge shook hands and throwing back his head looked up at Firpo, "Well," drawled Mr. Coolidge, "you certainly look all that your records have made us imagine." Virpo stood on one foot, then on the other, but no words came. At last he was ushered out. Some press despatches reported that he had asked his interpreter as he went out, "Who is that man?" This is hard to believe. Virpo is partly sublingual in English, but he is not completely subnormal in mentality. PROHIBITION Dry agents captured a liquor launch coming in from "Rum Row." Its skipper had an unstamped letter from a member of one of the runship's crew. It read in part: "There are so many sales here and things are four times cheaper than at home. Well, parents, this is a very exciting life out here. There are two hostages of Chinese, Italians, Greeks, etc., all waiting to be smuggled into the States. There are also a couple of stamships with opium, heroin, morphine and cocaine, all of which is being smuggled in every day. "There is a new plane that comes out and loads nineteen cases which it carries on each trip, making over six trips daily. 'There is a launch near by and I must close. With love and kisses to all.' IN ACTION The LaPollette-Wheeler movement organized itself into a Campaign committee, Chairman of which is Representative John M. Nelson, nominal Republican of Wisconsin, and Vice Chairman of which is Robert M. LaPollette Jr. Other members of the committee are: Senator Lynn J. Prazier of North Dakota, "Non-Parlament" Republican; Morris Hillquit, Manhattan Socialist; William H. Johnston of Washington, President of the International Association of Machinists and Chairman of the Conference. IS IT TRUE? The number of woman physicians in the U. S. is now 6% of the total, whereas ten years ago woman comprised about 10% Dr. Kate C. H. Mead, former President of the Medical Women's National Association, ascribes the decrease to the increased cost of medical education and to increased opportunities of women in social and laboratory work, which attracts women who might otherwise study Medicine. "WE SAY IT WITH NEWS" GERMANY National Wealth The Bankers Trust Co., Manhattan, has estimated that the total national wealth of Germany today is about $55,000,000,000. Dr. Karl Helfferich, famed German financier who was recently killed in a railway accident (Time, Apr. 28), placed the national wealth of pre-War Germany at $73,780,000,000. Sir Josiah Stamp, British statistician, declared in 1919 that Dr. Helfferich had overlooked several items and he computed the pre-War Teutonic wealth at $80,500,000,000. Shortly before his death, however, Dr. Helfferich made an estimate of Germany's post-War wealth. He thought that his Fatherland was worth only $47,600,000,000 and reduced the figure by $11,900,000,000 on account of "diminished productivity," making the total -35,700,000,000. The Bankers Trust said in support of its $55,000,000,000 estimate: "This figure was arrived at by making allowance for territorial losses imposed by the Versailles Treaty, the fact being kept in mind that, while some of this territory was agricultural and not highly productive, yet the loss of Alsace-Lorraine carried with it very large resources of iron ore and potash. JOHN W. DAVIS The procedure of John W. Davis and of his Campaign Manager, Clem L. Shaver, was dictated by the fact that each was just accustoming himself to his new part, Shaver, new to the arena of National politics, conferred and conferred again with members of the Democratic National Committee, with a view to setting up and setting in motion an active organization. Mr. Davis played golf with Frank L. Polk, chatted with visiting politicians, saw reporters daily, completed his acceptance speech, which is to be short about 4,000 words. Of it, he pertinently said; "If I were to put into the speech all the suggestions that have reached me it would be an unique address." DEVIL-TEMPTED "Holy Virgin, we propose never to adopt any manner of dress displeasing to Thee. This means that upon every occasion, even when the devil tempts us, and suggests we pass the limits of holy modesty, we will remember our promise to Thee." So vowing, thousands of Catholic women of Italy have set themselves to win the two medals offered by Plus XI (The Tattler, Aug. 3) for modesty of dress. As announced last week, Mrs. Michael Gavin, daughter of the late James J. Hill, is leading the modesty crusade in the U. S. Pledges similar to that above have been mailed to 700,000 Catholic ladies from the Washington Headquarters of the National Council of Catholic Women, of which she is President. Roman beggars sent a resolution of protest to the Pope. The dress reform edict, they say, has cut down church attendance, has reduced their income. LIBERIA NEEDS THE MONEY JAPAN—Tokyo Klan A combined committee of the Tokyo "Klan" (Iron-Hearted Brethren, Black Dragons and the Death Penalty Club) were "aroused" when they heard that the Dalto Electric Co. (Tokyo) was planning to float a loan in the U. 8. Despite explanations that the loan was to meet pressing obligations and was not to show especial love for the U. S., the "Klan" cabled Jikazawa, President of the Electric Co., who was in the U. S., to cancel all bond subscriptions or make up his mind never to return to the land of the Cherry Blossom and the Death Penalty Club, - THE TATTLE THE conquest of self is the have to face, but as the victory noble and for its possibilities, its hero can give, can never be can has passed thro the lowlands and mastery.

SELF-MASTERY By J. OTHO GRAY HE conquest of self is the hardest conflict a man will ever have to face, but as the battle is stern and exacting so is the victory noble and fruitful. The Significance of life, its possibilities, its heroism, its challenge to the best we can give, can never be deeply known except to him who has passed thro the lowlands and reached the higher level of self-mastery. Truly it is an inspiring spectacle to see a human being who has risen above the narrowness of prejudice, selfishness, habit, and attained to the spiritual splendor of self-mastery; one whose control of thought and feeling is absolute and dependable; whose outlook on life is enriched by the tolerance and kindliness that comes from experience with the within. Self-mastery means cheerfulness in tight places, when fortune gets ironical and the sunlight is on half time. Under fire it keeps its judgment sound and humane and its faith as rosy as the sunrise. It means a greater enjoyment of the good things of life and a keener relish in their acquisition. Life is a serious affair demanding five good wits that are kept in working order and able to stand up under the grind of competition, temptation and vicissitudes. The call ever goes forth for front line heads and front line hearts. These come not casually nor by accident, but thro labor and sorrow and dreaming and making history within by conquering the brute and unfolding the divine. He who asks for a lighter burden must take his place in the rear. If life had mercy, if fortune withheld the finishing stroke, how could great men and women be made? Who could achieve the very great guerdon of self-mastery? The challenge of destiny may be flung with a jest or with a sob but the disciplined mind heeds naught save the fact the human will is an instrument of power and fate will do its bidding when the command is positive and wisely given. Staunch, impressive appealing, he who has mastered himself will make life a servant and death a friend. T. W. MYLES PRESIDENT OF BOY'S LEAGUE. OFF TO PARIS CONVENTION California Youth Sailed Last Monday To Attend The Annual Conference Of The International Body Interviewed by Tattler Staff Representative. We take pleasure this week in introducing to our readers Thomas William Myles, Jr., who sailed for Paris last Monday to attend the annual convention of the International Boy's League, an organization of 500,000 boys, of which he is president. Myles is eighteen years old and is a freshman at the University of California. He is the son of Mrs. Cora Myles of Los Angeles. In an interview with a Tattler representative he tells of the work of the Boy's League. First of all, the International Boy's League is devoid of color prejudice. With branches all over the world it is led by a board of youngsters that is in itself, from the standpoint of racial equality, a revelation. On it are President Myles, Vice President Francis N. Bosworth, a white American; Vice President Gustave Puna, on Argentinan; Vice President Kalo Hara, a Japanese; Vice President Geo. H. Wellington, an Englishman; General Secretary Augustine Yarillo, Gonzales, Mexican, and Treasurer Andre Decournaux, who is French. Of these boys Myles is the only colored. "The purpose of the League," said President Myles," is to promote a spirit of co-operation and general welfare among boys of the world." It is supported by some of the leading white financiers of England, France and the United States. While in New York young Myles was the luncheon guest of the Rotary Club at the Hotel Biltmore. He called on Mayor Hylan at City Hall who endorses the League. He posed with the mayor for photographs for the leading metropolitan newspapers. One of the things President Myles will endeavor to do at the Paris meeting is bring the convention next year to Los Angeles. Last year, the session at which he was nominated and elected, it was held in Chicago. Incidentally, this is not young Myles's first trip to Paris. He was in Europe two years ago and delivered an address at one of the labor sessions of the League of Nations at Geneva. He is modest, soft-voiced, unassuming and is a decided credit to the race. He is accompanied to Paris by two white friends, Simon Zebrack, delegate from the Los Angeles Division, and Sam Rothman, a student at the Lincoln High School, who acts as his secretary.

LOUIS BREAKS EVEN IN SUNDAY’S TWIN BILL Umpire Helps The Visitors To Take he Second Contest After The Local Had Cop- tured First Game Judy Gans and his Lincoln Giant snared the visitors from St. Loui in the first game of Sunday’s dou. ble header last Sunday at Catholic Protectory Oval, but lost the sec: ond after leading up to the eighth inning. . Both contests were free hitting affairs, with the locals having the better of the heavy stick work. Gans and his athletes got the jump on the team from Missouri and hammered out a victory in the first contest before the visitors realized what is was all about. They jumped on Bell and rang up some fifteen solid smashes, includ- ing two, three and four-ply socks that netted enough runs to win two Or three ordinary games. The final ‘score was Lincoln Giants 14, St. Louis 6, But St. Louis aided by the um- pire, took the second by way of re- venge. For a while it looked like a big day for the locals as they led the visitors up until the eighth frame. Then the storm broke in all its fury. Miler singled after two were out, and Miles slammed the horsehide deep in center. The ball hit the bleachers and bounced back into the field, The umpire allowed it was a home run and two runs were added to the suum of St. Louis’ score. The locals went up in the air and al- lowed the next three batters to get on safely. Then Hutt and Ken- iard each doubled and six runs vere the sum total of the inning. | * FIRST GAME, j st.

The boys were finally signed to battle by the Queensboro Club of Long Island. They will meet in the semi-final to the Bartley Mad- den-Jack Renault heavyweight argu- ment that is carded as the feature. Estridge has been installed a two- to-one favorite over the old vet- eran Panama Joe. Sports down town believe that Estridge will stop Gans in this fight and ask but two and a half to one on such a re- sult. Several big bets have been made that couple Panama Joe Gans ind Jack Renault against Madden ind Larry, These freak bets are made that Renault will stop Madden and that oe will win over Estridge. The dds asked were three to one. Re- ault will have his hands full with artley, but at that the Irishman as been softened up by the whip- ing he took from Harry Wills. zee ee!

FLOWERS WINS EASILY FROM JACK TOWNSEND Harry Wills’ Protege Proves An Easy Victim for The Georgia Boy; Risden Whips Cooper Tiger Flowers had little difficulty ubduing Jack Townsend in the feat- ure, twelve round attraction at the. "Commonwealth Sporting Club last Saturday night. Townsend, a protege of Harry Wills, forgot all that the “Brown Panther” ever taught him, and fought like a novice, The result was never in doubt, but just a question of how long the referee would permit the slaghter to go on. Townsend with a big weight handicap of about twent- five pounds, was just a punching bag for the “Georgia Cyclone.” But referee Purdy, the same man who officiated at the Harry Wills- Bartley Madden contest some months ago, failed to take action. Yet it was clearly apparent to all that Flowers had Townsend at his mercy. And Jack’s seconds failed to use the best‘of judgment. Not until the eleventh round did they seem to realize the hopelessness of the contest, and have the sense to throw in the towel, in token of de- fea. It should have been done way sooner. Bobby Risden, fighing like a lit- tle wild cat. won the verdict from Izzy Cooper in the twelve round semi-final. Bobby jabbed his way ‘o a clean cut victory, breaking the ong winning streak piled up by the turdy white boy. It was a cork- ng good bout and pleased the big fathering, who cheered the little ellows for the fast and clever work. ‘ ; f raat ¥ a | PERCY A.

Pettus is ill in a New York hospital and the doctors have advised that he be sent out West. With this end in view, the Philadelphia branches of the New York TATTLER and The Pittsburg Courier, under the management of Messrs. William Pettus and Rollo Wilson, have launched a campaign to aid the once great player in his hour of need. A special benefit game between two strong baseball clubs will be played at one of the local parks very soon, complete details of which will be published in the newspapers, very soon. The entire proceeds will be given to the ball player and it is hoped that the amount will be sufficient to take him West and maintain him for a while. Contributions will be gladly received from fans all over the country. Just make the monye orders out payable to the William Pettus Benefit Fund and mail to either the Philadelphia Branch of the New York TATTLER at 623 South Broad Street, Philadelphia, or to the PITTSBURG COURIER, at 532 South 15th Street, Philadelphia.

The affair will run for a week, and in addition to popular theatrical stars and dramatic readers, many prominent folks in public life will lend dignity and color to the splendid entertainment promised. Hamilton Fish, Jr., will be one of the leading speakers, making his appearance at the chautauque on a Monday evening August 11th. The Honorable Mr. Fish, Jr., U. S. Congressman, as is generally known, was an officer in the famous old Fifteenth Infantry. Mr. Fish has always shown a ready willingness to help the colored people and is one of the noblest friends of the Race. Among the theatrical folks who will appear during the affaffir are: Abbie Mitchell, dramatic soprano; J. W. Cooper, ventriloquist, and Richard B. Harrison, dramatic reader. They offer the greatest variety in theatrical effort and each has proven an artist in the line of work pursued. J. R. JOHNSON WITH NEW PROD., "HONEY" J. Rosamond Johnson who has written some of the greatest individual song hits of the decade, has been engaged by Southland, Inc., with his band of fourteen musicians for the new musical comedy play, "Honey," which opens in Washington August 25th. F. E. Miller of Miller and Lyles, who wrote the book, is staging the dialogue of the play, and George Stamper is arranging the dances. The music and lyrics are the work of Porter Grainger—Bob Ricketts and Jo Trent. Prominent in the cast are, "Dodo" Green, Elizabeth Williams, George Stamper, Alonzo Fenderson, Alma Daniels, Edgar Connors, Eddie Rector, Dorothy Rhodes, Zenaide Anderson and Mary Dent.

The famous CREOLE MADCAPS of "Shuffle-Along" "SNAPPY AND INTERESTING" TO PERFORMERS On numerous occasions performers have felt slighted because of the fact that no mention of their arrival in town has appeared in the columns of our publication. We wish to state that the TATTLER makes no exception and will be glad to publish news of each and every performer arriving in the city. But you can help us in the matter by visiting the theatrical department or dropping us a line and telling of arrival here. We can't be expected to remember everybody in the profession. THEATRICAL NOTES Octavia Sumler was seen the other evening in the vicinity of 135th Street and Lenox Avenue. Apparently the vivacious little entertainer had a crying need of a doctor, whom she evidently found. Ida Roley dropped in on the theatrical editor and shot him an earful of expectations. According to Miss Roley, she will be with one of the Columbia burlesque companies this coming season. Billy Mills appeared in town for a hot minute and then disappeared. Billy tarried long enough to tell us that he had something big up his sleeves and to volunteer his services for the Sam Langford Testimonial at the Lafayette Theatre August 15th. Katherine Yarborough, formerly of "Shuffle Along" and "Runnin' Wild," is another star of the theatrical profession always willing to contribute her ser- THE TATTLER vices to a worthy cause. She is working very energetically in the interests of the little St. John's Mission in West 39th Street. Ida Smith also know as Inez Smith, who played a while with George Cooper at the Dunbar, Philadelphia, should call and get her trunk and personal property. Miss G. G. will not be responsible any longer and may have to get rid of them very soon. Call or write. You know where. Julien Arthur, musical director, claims that he is so busy planning several big features that he has no time to worry about anything else. His whole heart and soul is devoted to his musical efforts so ichkibble says Mister Julien. Page B. D. Lenox Avenue near 1355th Street is becoming a very popular locality for the atrical men to meet their wives. It is rumored that a certain prominent performer made a date with a peach who he later discovered was his second wife. She was the second of some ten or twelve, and it was difficult to remember so far back. Little, Marion Taylor was rehearsing with the new production "Honey" for a while but has not attended lately. Rumor has it that the weather around 138th Street was a trifle torrid. "Old coals will kindle" so it was not the least surprising when Kid Bumpsky warmed up to Alto. Rumor has it that the Kid hugged and kissed Drake for booking the engagement at the Lincoln, and then went looking for Mr. Synder. "Shuffle Along" recommends my fancy preparations.

Co fitting the occ No word has die Hunter as as we are conc keen silent se This is the seventh of a series of articles by Helen Roberts that will appear each week in the TATTLER, dealing with the activities of the girl athlete. Very little attention has been paid the courageous little daughters of the Race, either by the press or the public. We hope to bring them before the public and to aid in the splendid work they are now engaged in, giving them the encouragement so necessary to ultimate success. SPORTING EDITOR. The Amateur Athletic Union has announced that the National championships will take place on September 5th, 6th and 7th at Colgate Field of the Newark Athletic Club, West Orange, N. J. But this three day affair is for the male athletes. So far the A. A. U. HELEN ROBERTS has not sent out any notices concerning the girl athlete, and this leads to the belief that a special meet will be announced for the girls some time later on. This I sincerely hope is true, for there are several girls here in the city who are very anxious to enter into the various events of track and field athletics. I for one would most gladly welcome the announcement that several special events would be featured for girls on the program of the National champs at the New Jersey Field. And I believe that the same is true of quite a number of our young ladies. There are three girls besides myself who are eager to measure strides with the best in the 70 to 100 yard dash events. The Missees Dotson, Pryor and Harrison will make the best of girl runners step as never before in the dash events. Miss Lillian Dotson has beaten the white girl who now holds the dash record, twice, and I fully believe that she will repeat. And though Miss Ida Pryor is not quite as fast as Miss Dotson, still she will cause a lot of worry to any of them. Miss Harrison I have not yet seen in action, but from all reports she can step in record time. Then we have a quartette of runners who can burn up the cinders in the relay events. Here is where we really expect to star. With the Misses Cunningham, Harrison, Pryor and myself, any quartette that leads us to the tape will hang up a new record for the distance. I would like very much to see the A. A. U. put on a pentathlon, that is a modified pentathlon for girls. A three event affair say with the hundred yard dash, the running broad jump and throwing the baseball for distance or something similar. Even a fourth event might be added, say a five hundred meters walk, or three hundred meters run. There is no reason why we should not have tests that measure up to similar ones that the men and boys compete for. As it is now, there are very few track and field events open for girls. But like every thing else, it takes time to bring about these things, so I guess we'll have to wait. CRICKET MATCH, BIG EXCURSION FEATURE Bermuda, July.—Walter Simomns inaugurated the first cricket match game here when he brought a picked team from Hamilton Bermuda and defeated a team representing St. George. Mr. Simmon's Basket Picnic Excursion proved most successful and pleasing to all who made the pleasant trip. Woodgate's popular musicians furnished the music that cheered the hearts of the jolly crowd. The cricket match was played on the grounds of the St. George's C. C., and resulted in a win for the picked team of Mr. Walter Simmons. His team was made up of cricketers from Somerset and Hamilton. The opposing team, representing St. George's, was not as strong as the visiting team, and hence bowed to defeat, which was sustained with rue sportsmanlike spirit. At the conclusion of the game, the trophy which bears the inscription "Simmons' Cricket Cup, was presented to Mr. Walter Simmons' team by Mr. W. Cooper with words befitting the occasion." No word has been heard from Eddie Hunter as yet. That is as far as we are concerned. He told us to keep silent several weeks ago, and with the exception of this little peep, we have not uttered a word. What's the mater Eddie?

Billy Had a night off and did he enjoy himself at the Nest last Sunday night, "Yes he did any everything was alright, as he was with wifie's friends." A certain chap from the far off town of Brooklyn, is the authority for the statement that a certain lady who has been making her residence in "Strivers Row," has moved to parts unknown, it is wondered if Eddie Herbert annoyed her by walking in his sleep? Pio the "Cuban Sheik," made his annual pilgrimage to Saratoga, but he was not in town for long, when he thought of calling up Gertrude Sanders, his "Baby," at two A. M. "You have heard the call of the wild," but Gertrude heard Pio calling and she packed her trunk and rolled away to the Spa, to be with her Pio, "That's that." We wonder if "Baby" has changed? He used to be seen only with the ladies of small stature, on Sunday night he had a lady of very large proportions, to the Nest, we all change don't you know. M.

A Sheba bid her Sheik's mother good bye July 14th and kissed her Sheik on the train July 15th, "Good bye forever." R. S. and J.

Baltimore, Md., will be interested to know that quite a few Baltimoreans have settled on Fifth Avenue, in very swell apartment houses, among them are Fishers, Juliet Houston formerly a Bundy from Druid Hill Avenue, Elizabeth Fisher, and a host of others. Juliet Bundy Houston, gave a birthday party on the 27th of last month, and her friends had a wonderful time, Susie Young was heard saying to her hubby, "It had to be you, wonderful you." And he replied, "I love You," keep it up old dear. When the Cadillac rolled into the Kingwood garage on Sunday night, with all those pink women in it, where was Todd and Bob?

It is rumored that he recently married a sister in his church who is also married and her husband is one of the pillars of the Church. It is alleged that this gent of the cloth also likes his "Likker," and staggers home most any time like an English Tramp wallowing in a heavy sea. It will be recalled that he was locked out of a Church not far from New York, about fourteen years ago by irate members. We are sure that the Church is no place for a would-be "Spiritual Rat," and it is too bad that "Ye Olden Act" when the "Pied Piper" tooted his flute, and all the rats followed him to the river cannot be enacted anew. J. S. Kinney, Pete Paunell, Gus Howard, three Harlem boys of good families are a new click, and have founded a club known as the "Three Thieves of Bagdad." Why so downhearted, J. S. K., you are one of the "Three Thieves of Bagdad." Cheer up, B. L. B., the kind folks in the neighborhood of 8th and 9th avenues on a downtown street still think of you.

Blaines family who lived in the mansion on the hill from which the village took its name. We may as well acknowledge that there was a cloud over Jasper’s birth: A fleecy white cloud with a silver lining, that made Jasper some five or six shades lighter than his mother; -and as he grew older caused a downward droop to his well chiseled mouth, and a wistful hungry look in his big black eyes. “Mammy” Brown kept her own counsel with outsiders but with Jasper she was painfully frank about her responsibilities. ‘When he was just a little shaver she often picked him out of the street where he was rolling in the dust with the inky miscellany of the village; and with a vigorous shake as if to remove both material and _spirit- ual contamination, would exhort him_be- tween gasps for breath: “Yoh Jaspah! Don’ yoh lemme kotch you ’sociatin’ wid dem low-down brack trash! I’se gwine mek yoh as white inside as yoh is outside or brek yoh back!” She was as good as her word too; as Jasper learned to his sorrow on many occa- sions,, Once she found him playing with a stolen toy wagon and made him return it to: the owner; following like a huge black Nemesis and whipping him every step of the way. “Yoh will steal folke’ses wagons an’ hide em, will yoh? Well, yoh won’t steal no moh wagons, lemme tell yoh! Yoh is gwine to grow up decent an’ squah! Yoh ain’t no brack trash! Understan’ me Jas- pah?” 4 Somehow, Jasper must have understood for he did grow up to be decent and square. He did pretty well in the village school but when his mother began to grow feeble and have the “misery” in her back he learned the barber’s trade and soon had a chair in the best shop of the village. After his mother died he was more ter- ribly alone than other boys might have been because of the admonitions she had incessantly drummed into his head, that he ‘must grow up to be white inside and live like “Quality.”.. Whenhe sought .com- #anionship with the youth of the village he soon realized that he was hopelessly, different; so after a few pitiful disappoint- mentshe kept to himself, and was accord- ingly. treated with scorn and derision by those whose color entitled them to popu- larity with the masses. | Jasper sometimes while away a lonely hour before bedtime or early in the morn- ing playing old melodies on a flute he had found among his mother’s things. It gave him a melancholy pleasure to find that he had a knack for it; and.he thought his mother would have been proud to hear him play. He struggled to master the instru- ment too because he envied the boys around town their gifts for singing, dancing, and playing the banjo. With all his heart and soul Jasper hungered for companionship and love; and knew not where or how to find them. One golden morning as he sat on the steps of the old rose-covered cabin playing his sweetest tunes, a mirable appeared at the gate, paused then came slowly toward him. When Jasper raised his eyes he saw, not merely a bright-faced yellow girl with dancing eyes and hands gracefully timing the music; but on beyond the embodiment of youthful beauty and innocence he saw the answer to his soul’s great need; and the wonder of it made him dumb. He dropped his flute and stared at the girl as ee a THOUSANDS WATCH GARVEY’S PARADE Supposed Liberator Of Africa Bows To The Plaudit Of Watch- ing Throng. Mounted Police Patrol The Line of March. N. Y. C., Aug. Ist—Today was Garvey Day in Harlem. The flag decorated streets, mounted police and thousands of applauding colored folk gave color to the brilliant uni- forms worn by the loyal members and the several bands that thrilled the marchers as they made their steady and determined tread along the highway. Garvey, of course was the mystic synthesis that gave the occasion its regal significance. Many, no doubt, thought that Garvey was still in jail and were out to convince themselves that in reality Garvey was still on the job. Tonight at Carnegie Hall, Garvey will auction off his arch enemies and relegate them to unknown parts of Dantes’ Inferno. Garvey is merci- less in flaying his opponents, so the Universe will know Sunday morning what sordid value has been placed See eee ere et Seek ee eee ee saw the joyousness in her face replacec by doubt and fear. When it was too late to catch her and try to make her under. stand, she had flown up the path that led to the Mansion. Jaspeh went to his work that day with an unsteady hand and a heavy heart. Later he learned that the girl was a new-comet among the servants at the big house an¢ ‘that her name was Blanche, _ Days passed and Jasper gazed up the hill! with longing eyes; but he never dared to join the young folks when they frolicked in the evening; and when he saw Blanche on the street with them she was so completely surrounded he had no chance to speak if he had dared, Among the suitors for Blahche’s favor in the village was big Sam Judson who worked at the Hill House. Sam was big and strong while Jasper was undersized. Sam could tote a trunk on his shoulder as easily as Jasper could carry a basket of clothes; and beside that he could play the banjo and sing like a regular show man. It was plain that a girl who was fond of music would be sure to fall in love with Sam; so Jasper swallowed his chagrin and tried to forget the hope that had been born within him only to die because of his own timidity. Then one day a wonderful thing happen- ed in Hillville. A big starry banner floated out in front of the hotel and a sign ap- peared: “Men Wanted for the U. S. Army.” Jasper saw from his window that a crowd was gathering around the gaudy poster, but just at that moment something directly across the street attracted his at- tention and held it, As he watched, his face turned a shade whiter than usual; his lips trembled and drew down like a mourn- ful child’s. His patron was waiting, but nothing mattered to Jasper; for he had seen ‘Blanche and big Sam and another couple dressed in their best and giggling with happiness, come out of the parson’s house and walk away. His eyes followed them to the hotel and when they turned the corner, all he could see was the starry flag slapping against the dingy walls of the Hill House. Like a man in trance Jasper walked out of the shop and said to the burly sergeant with the blue cord on his hat? : “{ want to be a soldier. When can I go?” we Thats’ how he happened to’ go to Manila in 799; and because good barbers were scarce he stayed on and kept watching transports start for home until after awhile Manila got to be a habit with him; and in the blazing sun of the tropics the teach- ings of his stern old mamy slipped back and slept like half-forgotten dreams, One day when Jaspeh was on his way Jown-town it seemed too beastly hot to walk so he picked up a street calesa, not ealizing until he had gotten into the jam on the Bridge of Spain that the cochero was pretty much the worse for native wine. [here was trouble with the carromata just uhead. Jasper’s boy screamed and cursed; whipping his poor little pony to get past the arromata, which in turn jammed into a fictoria beyond. The high-bred horses on he victoria reared and backed; the carro- mata and Jasper’s calesa were telescoped nto a street-car that had come up behind. When Jasper came back to earth he was n the emergency ward of the General Hos- ital with his head bandaged and a collar- yone that would be of no use to him for ome time to come, There were good doc- ors and some competent American nurses, ut after the danger was over he found imself dependent upon the tender minis- rations of a soft-footed native girl whom e learned to call Munica. (To be continued next week) upon the heads of Dr. Du Bois, Jas. Weldon Johnson, Dean Pickens and scores of others who are losing much valuable time trying to de- throne him. Next on the program will be the ‘thirty day convention, which _ will hold the center of attraction and will be the cause of much inflammable abuse within and without. The Poi- son Ivy, deftly entwined around the loyalists of the several divisions, will be given opportunity to “run wild,” and_contaminate the very existence of Garvey’s being or be crushed into a poisonous fluid, vaporizing itself in the very atmosphere of things op- posite. As for Garvey himself, the eternal question will be his only dic- tator. “To be or not to be” will be the ever refreshing thought predom- inating his official personage during the setting of the Convention.

RATOGA SPRINGS, Friday, Aug. 1st—The Season opened here in splendor with much flare and triumph, and as usual, the thoroughbreds, whose owners and trainers have entered in the various races, were the cause of much speculation between the lovers of horse flesh and the bookmakers. LS Surprises were numerous ‘anc often the known favorites came up behind breathless and hopelessly beaten. Hundreds of. Afro-Ameri- -eans from all parts of the country have gathered here for the season’s sports and are added features to the Gaieties of the celebrated summer resort. As usual, the women folk are displaying handsome sport suits of knitted materials and combinations of various colors that harmonize in deep contrast, blending sweetly with varying degrees,of feminine flesh of Afro-American extraction. Too, the ladies seem long on bank rolls and are preparing to keep the bookies busy paying off. Their win- nings are mostly luck, as they care little about the pedigree of the ani- mal. What they like is the name and -the number. Strange to say, their choices are often winners at long odds, against the mature race- track judgment of the male wise- acres whose mental records are as absolute as the secretary of the Rac- ing Association, whose weights and handicaps are based upon the most accurate information that can be ob- taxed Strangé, too, that a number of the fair sex seem to have created jeal- ousy as they so fashionably display the TATTLER, as a refreshing sti- mulant at intermission. Here and there were spotted TATTLER fans who were apparently interested in the gossip of the Three Moral Mon- keys. No -doubt before the meet closes, the TATTLER bug will sting the fashionable ladies of the secluded club houses, and they will learn much of the social activities of colored women everywhere and become a topic of much interest. THE ELSMERES The Elsmeres’ Moonlight excur- sion up the Hudson, Saturday Night August 2nd from 132nd Street pier on the Steamer: “Warwick” was in- deed a success from every point of view. The Warwick, a nice clean boat equipped with every conveni- ence, courtesy, etc., left on its de- lightful sail about 8:30. Syncopa-|| tion galore. was-furnished by Willie Wiggins’ Orchestra of ten men, who]. combined harmony, melody, jazz and}; class to good advantage. ( When dancers reached the bend in}, the boat, nicknamed “Dead Man’s Curve,” the music was lost to the|] sar and they had to use their jazz |; magination. Though the-boat was |] illed nearly to capacity, there was |\ 10 jam or offensive glamour. The]: “QUALITY AND SERVICE”? OUR MOTTO {top deck was just what the docto: ordered. Though there|was no moon, there were myriads of twinkling stars ga- lore, and balmy breezes that were indeed refreshing after a turn or the dance floor. The “Charleston Kings” had full swing, keeping time to the strumming Ukes that echoed from every angle. Everything combined to make the evening one of unsurpassed mirth and pleasure for the pretty damsels and handsome beau brummels, at- tired in latest sport outfits, knickers, collegiate suits, etc. There was no disturbance whatso- ever, due to the able management of the “Elsmeres,” of which Mr. Leon G. Marshall is Secretary. The boat docked all too early for many at about 3 A. M. " Mr. Thomas O. Moseley of W. 141st Street is spending a few weeks with Mr. Justin Hope of Camden, N. J. He is having a most enjoyable time motoring to ‘Atlantic City, Philadelphia; Wil- mington and other places of in- terest. Miss Aubrey Berry of Newport, R. L, spent some time in the city and had a most enjoyable stay. Mr. Lewis and Miss Clarice Cur- rey are spending their vacation in Detroit, Mich., and Canada with their relatives. Mrs. M. Morgan has left for Atlantic City to remain there for several weeks. She will then go to the mountains for a while be- fore her return to the city. Mr. and Mrs. A. R. Kinney of Princeton are spending a few weeks with Mr. Kinney’s mother on Le- nox Avenue. Mrs. Helen Benson, a winsome young Philadelphia matron, was guest of honor at a farewell lunch- eon given by Misses Beatrice King and Mazie Chappelle. Mrs. Mary Saunders of West 178th Street is spending a very pleasant ten day vacation in As- bury Park, N. J.

AI? ah een Ghee Gee DO YOU KEEP YOUR SKELETON IN? By WILL POTTER NY times I’ve often wondered, when I’ve met some per- sons fine, just what was all behind their talk ’twas such a strong old line of mouthy evidence that. covered up some dark old sin, or then again, some : other thoughts of things that might have been. Now, the old folks use to rave about some mean old secret hid, endeavored to keep the folks from knowing, so kept them under lid. But now-a-days, more modern ways are used to keep things safe and so they keep well out of view, the things that make them chafe. The old skeleton in the closet is the thing that worries most of the people we know today, of it they never boast. You dare not e’er go near the door where that old skeleton rest, ’cause you’d be knocked right on the floor, it’s not wise to make the test. But some- times when you’re passing by or near the door, you hear an awful rattle for there must be bones galore. A skeleton’s a thing of many bones, it wouldn’t do you see to open wide the closet door the thought, just sickens me. Can you imagine all you’d find? I’m really sure you couldn’t. For bones of many yesterdays, would make you laugh; they wouldn’t. The many tales they may reveal, to modern story getters, would make you wish you ne’er been born to keep your soul in fetters. And now, dear friends be truly sure, the closet door’s secure, that none could pry it open and old skeleton is safe, be sure. There’s no use trying to deny that somewhere safely hid, a skeleton you know about is somewhere under lid.
