Alma Douglass Brown’s Former Husband Takes Minister’s Youthful
Bride to Court On Serious Charges that Will Startle All Harlem.
John Urquhart the Former Husband of Church Beauty,
Starts Legal Action, that Is Due for Hearing Some time
Time this Week. The Former Miss Brown Claims
Urquhart Marriage Annulled.
“For years I’ve preached the gospel truth
To each and every one,
But when some brother trys to steal,
My brown skinned gal, I’m done.
“The good book says, “Thou shall not covet”
That’s the gospel law,
But I’ll bust the Ten Commandments
On some Brother’s jaw.”
With Apologies to Bitte Hiccins
When the Rev. Montross Thornton, pastor of Bethel A. M. E.
Church at 52 West 132nd Street, took unto himself a wife about two
months ago, in the person of the fascinating Miss Alma Douglass Brown,
a member of his congregation, he knowingly or unknowingly, it matters
not which, sewed the seed of trouble that threatens to have far reaching
results.
For the Miss Douglass-Brown had married a young man, John Urqu-
hart by name, a few years previous and that gentleman has launched
legal action that is due some time this week, the papers having been served
on the present Mrs. Thornton at the church some weeks ago.
MONTROSE

The triangle presents some or the
most startling peculiarities, that rival
any story of love fiction ever writ-
ten. It presents one of the most
complexed, comiplicated cases of
aaa ee
a i
‘te s — |
, ; y
REV. MONTROSE THORNTON
twisted love, rash, thoughtless, blind
love, and deceit, ever told.
And strange as it may seem, con-
trary to all the love novels, the
man was the blind, foolish victim,
a victim of his own thoughtless love,
his mad love for a woman who nev-
er loved him, yet who went to the
altar and said, “I do”, perhaps never
realizing her own state of mind.
John Urquhart and Alma Doug-
lass Brown were married according
to the young man, in February, 1922.
She was about twenty years old
and he was about three years older.
The two had been very friendly,
both being active members of Bethel
Church.
But Alma's mother, Mrs. Doug-
lass, had objected it seems, to her
being courted by John, and they
met clandestinely, where ever con-
venient. At first Miss Brown felt
seriously aggrieved at her mother’s
objections to John calling, and
rumor has it that she tried to take
her own life.
Apparently she told her devoted
lover of her displeasure, and the two
quietly arranged to be united, and
they did, the ceremony being per-
formed at the Municipal building.
And that ceremony was the death
of John Urquhart'’s love dream, for
after that Miss Alma broke away
from him completely.
Unaware of his newly married
wife’s change of heart, or rather her
awakening to the fact that she did
not love him, John went to the ex-
pense of furnishing a home at 182
West 135th Street for his bride,
spending about one thousand dollars
on its equipment. But when he sent
for his wife, she never came.
Then came the news that she was
enroute to California, and while
others heard from the young lady,
poor John never received a line as
to her whereabouts or intentions.
All the while she was enjoying the
splendors of the coast trip and kept
her friends informed.
But he was a patient lad and
waited, waited for the final shock,
notice that his wife had started di-
vorce actions against him, claiming
that the marriage was forced, and
he did not know any thing more un-
til about two months ago, when
notice of her marriage to Rev.
Thornton appeared in one of the
papers.
Rev. Thornton and the young lady
were married according to reports,
in Philadelphia July 7th, 1924, at the
residence of Mrs. C. F. Boggs, 30
South Ruby Street, the Reverend
Dr. Watkins performing the cere-
mony. Shortly after being united,
the couple came to New York and
took up their residence at the
pastor’s residence next to the church
in West 132nd Street.
Rev. Thornton has had a spirited
time of it during his stay of about
four years at Bethel Church. As a
matter of fact, he was forced to re-
sort to legal aid to assume charge
of the West 132nd Street religious
institution, as there was some hostil-
ity toward him.
- Then more recently he was in-
volved in a legal action against John
D. Robinson, whom he was or is
sueing for $50,000.00 damages for
criminal libel and slander. Now
comes the action of John Urquhart
against the Mrs. Thornton.
Mrs. Thornton claims that her
marriage to John Urquhart was an-
nulled in 1923, November 7th, but.
absolutely refused to divulge on just
what grounds the annullment was
granted. What she claims will come
out in due time.
But what is puzzling many of the)

church folks is, why did Miss Brown
or rather Mrs. Urquhart go all the
way to California for her action
against her husband, John Urqu-
hart, and’ where did the money
come from to finance the trip for
her and her mother, Mrs. Douglass?
And the most puzzling angle to
them is, when did the Rev, Thorn-
ton begin his courtship of the popu-
lar church beauty, for she left short-
ly after her marriage to Urquhart,
making the long, expensive trip to

VILLEPIGUE INN CREW AFRO-AMERICAN MADE
HONORS LEADERS | MODERATOR
September 21st, will mark the enc
of a very interesting season at Vil-
lepigue’s Inn, Sheepshead Bay, N.
Y. The army of workers are pos-
sessed, as usual, with that complex
emotion peculiar to that group; that
is, joy as a result of the splendid
fellowship that has pervailed, and
sorrow that time, master of all
things, has decreed an early parting
hour.
This feeling, no less than ever,
found its expression in the usual
way of concentrating honor upon
the dymatic features of the organiza-
tion where they were justly due.
The whole crew, both men and
women, assembled in the main room
of the institution, on Saturday after-
noon, and presented to Mr. W. Lee
Smith, headwaiter, a handsome toil-
et set of cut glass silver; to Mr.
William G. (Billy) Burke, second-
waiter, a white-gold “Gruen” watch;
‘to Mr. W. George Hall, Captain, a
handsome traveling bag.
The atmosphere of this occasion
was most dramatic, Mr. Volley V.
Stokes, spokesman for the crew, was
not lacking in picturesqueness of
language in uligizing Mr. Smith and
his official staff for their firmness
of character and splendid general-
ship which causes them not only
to be admired but also loved by
their followers. Mr. Smith, though
greatly moved by the intense feeling
and demonstration of the occasion,
did not lose his splendid command
of rhetoric in praising his crew for
their loyal support, outlining his
standard of manhood and woman-
hood_ necessary to survival among
the fittest.

TATTLER PROMOTING
FIRST BEAUTY CONTEST
Tattler Ball Will Give Beauties
From All Over the East An
Opportunity to Win One
Hundred Dollars in Gold.
Are you pretty, or think you are?
Do you measure thirty-eight or less?
If so, then you are eligible to candi-
dacy in the stupendous beauty con-
test and pageant, to be given by the
Tattler at Manhattan Casino, 155th
Street and 8th Avenue, on Friday
evening, October 10th.
Just apply at the office of this
popular weekly for an application
and then sign on the dotted line,
if you do not measure up to the
above specifications, do not bother;
for already nearly two-hundred
entries have been received, and the
difficulty of deciding the winner can
be imagined when you learn that
these entries come from as far south
as Richmond, Va., and as far north
as Boston, Mass.
It will be necessary to hold an
elimination contest before the night
of the pageant, and only those who
survive will appear at the pageant.
The winner will be chosen from this
group by competent judges of beau-
ty, and will be presented with one
hundred dollars in gold. Other prizes
which you learn of by reading the
Tattler weekly, will be given away
also.
A short program of select talent
will open the pageant, which will
be followed by dancing to the strains
of Della Sutton’s augmented or-
chestra of Melody Girls. This or-
chestra of young women is fast tak-
ing the place of more famous musi-
cal organizations because of their
more cfficient work, and it is in line
with the Tattler’s progressive ideas
to be among the first to recognize
their ability. It is also appropriate
at this beauty pageant, for there are
numbered among Miss Sutton’s
musicians many who might be well
g in the contest if they had a mind
to_enter.
It is safe to say, that the Tattler
Beauty Pageant will be the first of
its kind in the East, and as to its
elaborateness, one has only to recall
the fashion shows of the last two
years to rest assured that this lat-
est endeavor will be up to the min-
ute.
The general admission will be one
dollar. Boxes and Lodges are on
sale at the office of the Tattler, 201

“LOST VIGOR
RESTORED IN
24 HOURS”
Lost vigor, deadened glands and nerves,
and that weak, worn-out, depressed and
half-alive fecling need not be dreaded
any loager since the discovery of a well
known chemist. Now it is possible for
those who feel “prematurely old" to be-
come “rejuvenated” and regain the “vital
force of youth," often in a day's time,
with Mando Formula, is the amazing
statement of one who has taken the
treatment. This famous discovery is
bringing “renewed youth” and “strength”
to thousands where everything else had
failed.
“I want to say that my ‘lost vigor’
was restored and ‘glands renewed’ in
twenty-four hours,” says D. B. Peake of
Kansas City, Mo. “Today I am 76, but I
don’t-fecl a day over 40. Before I started
taking the treatment I felt I was an old,
‘worn-out’ man; but now I am enjoying a
remarkable ‘gland restoration’ and am
convinced’ my ‘rejuvenation’ is complete
and permanent. May God's blessing rest
on the discoverer of such a ‘boon to hu-
manity.’””
This wonderful formula, prepared by
one of the largest laboratories in the
world and generally known as Mando, is
easily used at home and seems to work
Uke magic in its rapidity on people of
all ages and sexes.
No matter how bad your condition, no
matter what your age or occupation, no
matter what you have tried if you are
lacking in “vigor and the ‘‘vital force of
youth’? we are so confident Mando For-
mula will restere you that we offer to
send a large $3.50 bottle for only $1.95 on
10 days’ free trial. If the results are not
satisfactory and you are not more than
pleased in every way, it costs you noth-
ing. Send no money—Just your name and
address to F, L. Carlin, 661 Baltimore
Bldg., Kansas City, Mo., and the treat-
ment will be mailed at once, Use it ac-
cording to simple directions. If at the
end of 10 days you are not showing “‘won-
derful improvement” and “rejuvenation,”
just send it back and your money will be
refunded without question. This offer is
fully guaranteed, so write today and give
this “remarkable formula’’‘a trial,

SHORTCOMINGS OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AND THE HONEST PROTEST.
The Republicans, with avowed klan support, carried Maine with a sweep, winning the Governor, the United States Senator and the four members of Congress. The result is said to have stiffened the Republican leaders to take all the klan support they can get and say nothing about the klan, with President Coolidge keeping silent on the challenge of Mr. Davis that he come out in the open and declare himself on the klan issue.
Think of Abraham Lincoln and the Republican party of which he was the first President taking any such position. It can't be thought, because Mr. Lincoln denounced the same doctrine when put forward, and had the country in an uproar, in his times, by the Know Nothing cranks and firebrands.
The reasons given by Mr. Lewis are succinctly stated in the following paragraph:
"I propose to vote against the Republican ticket this year as a protest against the treatment accorded the colored voter by the Republican party in power, which has used the Negro vote to get into power, and then turned against it to pursue a policy of 'Lily Whitism,' exclusion from office, and segregation in office. Appeals to the responsible authorities for representation, for plain justice for the colored Republicans, have fallen upon deaf ears. There is nothing left for self-respecting colored Republicans, except to turn that party out of power and to try another. Every four years we are given a pat on the back and a few kind words, only to raise hopes and expectations which are never realized."
The truth of these strictures made by Mr. Lewis cannot be gainsaid. The practice of exclusion from office was exemplified in the case of the minister to Haiti, the register of the Treasury, the collectors of customs at various Southern ports, the Internal Revenue collectors at Atlanta, Jacksonville, Hawaii, and other places, besides the many posts in the consular service from which the colored occupants were ejected by Secretary Bryan, in order to find places for "deserving Democrats."
The practice of excluding applicants of darker skins from the civil service by requiring photographs to be attached to their applications, a Democratic device, has been continued under the Republicans with the same drastic intolerance. The petty and humiliating barriers raised to segregate the two races in the departments at Washington, and in many of the offices throughout the country, still remain in force, regardless of any change of administration. Promotion has been denied those who have deserved advancement, solely on the ground of color.
The shortcomings enumerated by the Age are far from being all of them by a heap which can and will be enumerated as we go along. But justification for protest and bolting on the part of Afro-Americans from the Republican party is furnished by the High Priest of Negro Republican Regularity, and that's going some, and should make the Republican managers tired in the knees.
Editor Moore's position is a painful one. If he should need some sympathy, The Tattler, which keeps a large assortment in stock, is willing and ready to give him as he may need. His painful position may be summed up as follows: He who in other campaigns was the Big Thing at Republican Headquarters must find himself looked upon with suspicion because of his outspoken criticism of Republican policies and men, and because Mr. George W. Harris, the Ishmaelic editor of the New York News, whom Mr. Moore despises and passes by on the other side, is chief of the Negro Publicity department, while Mr. Lester A. Walton, his son-in-law, is chief of the Negro Publicity department of the Democratic party, and he can't go near either headquarters without starting th eshaking of heads and wagging of tongues. We have tolerated the shortcomings of the Republican

THEY SAY HARRY WILLS HAS MUCH DISTANCE YET TO COVER BEFORE FACING THE ELUSIVE JACK DEMPSEY.
HEY say, who are always questionable and irresponsible authority and hard to trace in the places where they should be, and which is characteristic of Gossips, they say that it is a long lane that does not turn up at the end, and that it is a long ladder, indeed, which has no last rung and a real top. The chase of Afro-American pugilists after Jack Dempsey's championship belt and the Big Money appears to be a sort of lane that has no end to turn up and no last rung and top to be reached. Like the Dutchman's flea, he is always somewhere else when you think he is where you expect him.
Jack Dempsey is a veteran in the dodging business, not only as a prize fighter but as a patriot, and dodged into a work shop instead of into the ranks as a soldier during the World War. He has been dodging Harry Wills for years and he is still dodging him. Jack Kearns, his manager, is out with the noise that Harry Wills, although he may have a match with Dempsey, having disposed of Luis Angel Firpo, should first meet Tommie Gibbons. That is nothing but a sidestep of the whiskered sort. Before he got the decision from Firpo the Sports writers all had it that he would be entitled to meet Dempsey, but they must not have consulted Jack Kearns. It should not be forgotten that Dempsey failed to do any more than get the decision over Gibbons, who is a stiff proposition. Why don't Dempsey go after Gibbons and do him or be done before he takes on Wills?
Candidly, The Tattler does not think that Wills has much of a chance of besting Dempsey if they should meet, and we think he will if Wills shall not be bested by some other on his way to Dempsey mapped out for him by Kearns. We base our opinion on Wills' showing against Firpo. Firpo acknowledged that he was the easy mark at the end of the first round. In the second, when he was down Wills could have finished him when he got up and would have done so, as he had plenty of reserved strength and opportunity, if he had not been too cautious. After the second round Firpo got wise to his danger and gave Wills little chance to kayo him simply by clinching and hanging on to Wills, hitting in the clinches not being allowed and opportunity out of them not being given by the fat bull. Because he did hit in the clinches, because he could not get the chance to hit otherwise, many Sports writers claim that Wills was guilty of many fouls, which the referee, who was no friend of Wills, allowed, so that the bout should not be broken off before the fans had got something for the big money they paid to see the go.
Wills was the better man and should have rushed matters after the knockdown in the second and kept on rushing until he put the Angel out for the count. Jack Dempsey did that thing in dealing with the same gent in the same place. If a fighter is too timid to go in and finish the win when he has the advantage he will be discredited even when he gets the decision. If he should take the same plan of battle to Jack Dmpsey he would get pulped, as Dempsey has shown he is not afraid to go the limit when he has the advantage. Wills received $150,000 for the fight, and we are glad of it, and hope that he will hold on to enough of it not to die a pauper after living in poverty, as has been the lot of some of our best ringmasters. Firpo received $159,000 as his share, but did not earn $9,000 of it.
Note and Comment By T. THOMAS FORTUNE
DEFENSE DAY statistics show that whatever peace advocates and opponents of war may think about it, the people of the United States are convinced that the time to prepare for war is in times of peace and that the best way to prevent war is to be prepared for it if it should break upon the country any old how.
Personally that is the way I feel about it. A person should always be prepared for trouble, although a perfectly law abiding person. Crooks of all sorts are always prepared for trouble. So it is with Nations; although loving peace they should be prepared to fight if they have to. Mankind are naturally warlike, for the most part; that is, one part want peace and the other part want war of some sort, and those who don't want it will be smashed up if they are not prepared for those who want it and force it upon them.
Afro-Americans have always done their full duty by the country as soldiers when called upon, but the country has never done us justice as soldiers. This was especially true in the World War, in which we were disgracefully treated upon the European fronts and in the home camps. But we are proud of our soldier boys, and when the Fighting Fifteenth as reorganized marched off to camp the other day they not only made a brave appearance but all

Harlem turned out on the sidewalks and at the windows to observe and applaud them.
Now, then, are the people of the country interested in being prepared for war while loving peace? In the nine corps areas on Defense Day 16,000,000 civilians participated in the exercises and 2,000,000 are enrolled and ready to fight. That shows the proper National spirit. The Nations of the world know that the United States is ready to fight if the fight is fetched to them.
Personally the race is not noted for courage when its rights are violently assailed or when the honor of their women is at stake. They are always ready to fight among themselves but they are seldom ready to fight white scamps who would impose upon them. We are growing better in this respect, however, and we should keep on a-coming.
I admire men like J. Finley Wilson, who, when returning from Cuba with his bride, was ready with two guns when a Florida mob aroused him in the Pullman car. When they saw he was ready and willing to shoot they backed away like the cowards they always are. But Mr. Wilson, who is proprietor and editor of the Washington Eagle and Grand Exalted Ruler of the Elks, showed the same sort of courage in the Washington riots, as did

GIVING
The gift of giving gracefully and the art of receiving graciously—is it true that we have lost these two attributes? Is it a fact that we have grown suspicious of those who could do good to us? And have we been burned by gifts which had their origin in the low, slow fires of greed? Is it that to be under obligation for a gift which should have been made freely, is to have incurred a debt which can never be paid, that we do not receive with pleasure?
What are the means of giving which shall add to the sum of our happiness and therefore our health and especially to the total of that grace which we covet for our personalities?
Not more than ten days ago, it came to my attention that someone weary and troubled, much alone with anxieties which called for courage, and both physical and mental fortitude, was walking—half running perhaps—between work and home and hospital. This person told me that many a time an ordinary decent friendly glance from one of the fellow trevelers would have cheered and encouraged beyond measure, but instead of the courteous and friendly look, there were rude stares and glances which held in leash unkindness, hardness, and one would almost say, hatred. Those people little knew that such unconsidered passive acts plunged lower the heavy spirits of one who sorely needed the evidence of man's humanity to man.
It is true—plainly, soberly and demonstratably true—that bitterness, unkindness, secretly or openly harbored emotions of dislike and hatred, act as destroyers of that peace of mind which is essential to the health of mentally normal human beings. Just as bacteria throw off poisons which, when absorbed into the blood stream, cause a toxemia which is manifested by a loss of resistance, a lack of power to do one's best work, irritability and kindred symptoms, so does the poison of uncharitable thoughts spread throughout the system to wreck its actual physical harm.
It is not beyond the province of preventive medicine to call attention to the fact that every endeavor to cultivate sincere kindness of thought and deed reacts upon—the "inward grace" truly—and upon the health of individuals.
T. HARVEY BURRIS PAYS THE "TATTLER" A VISIT
Mr. Burris, head of the Morehouse unit of the American Federation of Negro Students, dropped in last week to pay his respects to the Editor and thank him on behalf of the Negro Youth Movement for the fine spirit of cooperation shown by "The Tattler."
Mr. Burris has dedicated his life to the promotion of a higher culture and more whole-hearted cooperation among members of our racial group as have all members of the A. F. N. S. He has been attending the Summer Session at Columbia in an effort to complete the four-year college course at Morehouse in three years. His record was A in all subjects taken with perfect papers in every examination of the Session. a host of other race men and women, who made it so hot that, after the third day, the white rioters were ready to quit and did quit.
My idea is never to run into a fight and never to run out of a fight. Make the scamp or scamps who fetch the fight to you run. I have traveled all over the country and half around the globe and I have found that those who wanted to row with me were glad to compromise when they found I was ready to row with them. "Still, in thy hands carry gentle peace to silence envious tongues withal," as Mr. William Shakespeare teaches us. And it is worthy of observation that our prize fighters have never shown any fear of their white opponents, even although the vast assemblages were made up of white men who were hostile and showed that they were. The average of us may be no better than our prize fighters in this matter of courage but we certainly should be as good.

WAR RISK
On Sept. 2, 1914, a month after the outbreak of a recent war, Congress, by statute, authorized the Treasury Department to insure U. S. merchant vessels and their cargoes against the hazards of war. Thus came into being the Bureau of War Risk Insurance. Last week, this insurance business was "wound up"; it has ceased to exist.
Apparently, this was one of the few departments of the Government which made a financial profit out of the War. Although $29,497,331.23 was paid out on claims for losses, there remained over $17 million in profit; and the appropriation of $50 million made by Congress to cover losses was entirely untouched.
The largest single loss was $4,-467,336 on the steamer Argonaut and the largest single payment was $2,200,000 for the loss of the Standard Oil tanker John D. Archbold.
Thus has the account been closed out with no red ink on the ledger.
POLITICAL NOTES
The campaign to get out the vote for the November election is becoming picturesque. The National Association of Manufacturers is planning to have some 15 million pieces of literature sent out. One of them is a circular entitled: "Stockholders' Meeting of the U. S. A., Nov. 4. Attend and vote! Vote as you please, but vote!"
MAYOR CURLEY
In Boston, Mayor James M. Curley vetoed the request of the Socialist Party for permission to hold a peace demonstration on Boston Common on Defense Day. Sept. 12.
"As an American Mayor of an American city, interested in America, I am opposed to anything that savors of pacifist propaganda which, in my opinion, unless checked, may serve to deprive Americans of their present splendid heritage which was secured through use of the sword; and, so long as the governments of the world continue constructed as at present, they can only be preserved and perpetuated by the sword."
True Democracy
Congress received a neat roasting last week:
"The British Colonies are a source of revenue to the Crown. The Philippines have been in our possession for over 25 years; we have spent over $750,000,000 in developing them, but they have returned no revenue.
MATERNITY
The Department of Labor issued its first report on one of its latest Labors-or relatively one of its latest Labors. In November, 1921, Congress passed a Maternity and Infancy Act. On March 20, 1922, the first funds became available. The report covers the following 15 months of work.
The Act is administered by six people who comprise the Division of Maternity and Infant Hygiene of the Children's Bureau of the Department of Labor. The Bureau disseminates authoritative information on maternity and infant hygiene, and it furnishes funds with which States carry on the active work within their borders. There are various conditions on which this financial aid is given. Some is given outright; some must be matched by an equal appropriation from the State.
During the 15 months' period under report, $1,046,523 was dispersed by the Federal Government and $641,523 by States in cooperation with the Federal agency.
"WE SAY IT WITH NEWS"
COOLIDGE IS URGED TO SPURN KU KLUX
Washington, Sept. 14. Indiana Republicans are splitting away from Senator Watson's decision that the way for them to handle the Klan issue there is to ignore it. It is now rumored that representations are being made to President Coolidge that the position taken bids fair to defeat Ed. Jackson, their candidate for Governor, and the suggestion is made that the only thing which can save the Republican national ticket is for the President to take the issue out of politics, by himself declaring against the Ku Klux.
Reports from Indiana say pressure has been brought on Jackson to take the issue away from the Democrats by repudiating the Klan, which has indorsed him; but the answer was made that a recantation at this late day would not bring back the Republicans who have quit him because of the Klan, while it inevitably would break up the one solid block of votes on which he can rely. So it is assumed that the candidate for Governor will have to go through on his original schedule.
The only hope for him, it is urged, is for the President to take the initiative. As he has indorsed Jackson, this might bring back the Negroes to the Republican fold.
WOMEN BREAK THREE ATHLETIC RECORDS
Paris, Sept.—Three world and two French records were broken to-day in the athletic competition of the French Feminine Federation. Madame Regel of France set a new world's record for the half-mile walk of 4 minutes 13 seconds, and, continuing, made a kilometre record of 5 minutes 15 1-5 seconds.
Mlle. Alauze, France, established a world record of 17 4-5 seconds for the 120-yard dash. The two new French records were for the 80-metres dash, which Mme. Radideau, the titleholder, set at 10 1-5 seconds, and the 200-metre dash, which she lowered to 26 2-5 seconds.
JAPAN
Ambassadors
Ambassadors are exchangeable commodities. When Washington announced that it was sending Edgar Addison Bancroft to Tokyo as U. S. Ambassador to Japan, Tokyo scouted about to find someone to send to Washington as Japanese Ambassador to the U. S. in succession to smiling Ambassador Masanao Hanihara.
The choice was said to have fallen upon Tokichi Tanaka, whilom Vice Minister for Foreign Affairs, whilom Counselor of Embassy, whilom Consul at Seattle. But Eki Hioki, once Japanese Ambassador to Germany, and Tsunso Matsudaira, a sub-minister in the present Cabinet, were also mentioned as marketable diplomats.
OIL
The Government's special counsel for investigating and prosecuting the oil scandals has apparently hit upon an entirely new tack. Behind closed portals in Washington, a Special Grand Jury was called to hear 15 witnesses, subpoenaed duces tecum (bring your books and papers). All that transpired was that the proceedings had nothing to do with the Sinclair and Doheny oil leases. The witnesses were an entirely different group from that which was examined by the Senatorial Committees (Time, May 12 et seq.). The new investigation is supposed to have something to do with the Mexia oil field in Texas.
THE TATTLER
CHICAGO DEFENDER
M.
TONY LANGSTON "Boss of the "Old Roll Top Desk"
TONY LANGSTON WITH JORDAN AT BIG FIGHT
Rotund and smiling, hail and hearty, Tony Langston, well known theatrical critic of the Chicago Defender, rode into town on Wednesday to write his views of the WillsFirpo battle for the readers of the popular Windy City sheet.
After making a survey of the New York office of his own paper where smiling "Bill" White and Jim Chestnut were waiting for this congenial fellow with open arms (every one seems glad of his presence wherever he goes), Tony made a beeline for the office of the Tattler, where he was ushered into the presence of the Chief Editor, Jordan, without the least sort of preliminaries. Everyone on the Tattler office force knows Tony Langston, and the good fellowship that exists between him and our Chief. Therefore, he has the key to the office whenever he appears.
Tony and the Chief went to the big fight together, and had a wonderful time. Before they reached home they spent an enjoyable evening cheering Harry Wills as the Brown Panther tamed the "Wild Bull." It is this affable and congenial spirit of good fellowship that has brought success to Mr. Langston in the world of journalism, for he can surely be counted among the successful men of color in his profession.
Starting with this famous newspaper of the western metropolis, The Chicago Defender, in its infancy, Mr. Langston, along with Mr. Abbott, its owner, saw many hard and trying times. He can give one a particularly entertaining evening relating some of the amusing incidents which were a part of his life during the early days of the paper he now points to with pride. And he can also bring tears of pity to your eyes as he relates some of the hardships endured endeavoring to put this great enterprise over.
The success of the Defender speaks for itself, and Mr. Langston is now enjoying the benefits of his endeavor, along with the others who were with Mr. Abbott through thick and thin.
In his present capacity as theatrical critic, a particularly trying position, especially on a race journal, Mr. Langston or Tony as most theatrical folk affectionately refer to him, has endeared himself to the hearts of a great host of performers through his full-hearted consideration of their welfare. Not one in a hundred will stand for an ill word against their "Moses" and many of them will get right down to fisticuffs for Tony. His stay in New York has been an extremely enjoyable one, for his

friends have seen to it that everything was done to make him feel at home—our Chief included. The Tattler will be always glad to welcome any member of the craft especially if he possesses just one-half the qualities that have endeared Mr. Langston to his many friends. H. B. Rowe, another newspaper man, of Minneapolis, Minn., also came East to witness the big fight, and was a visitor at the Tattler office. He was very much disappointed at not having seen Wills knock out Firpo.
MR. FORTUNE WAS PIONEER IN RACE'S POLITICAL THINKING
HON. WILLIAM H. LEWIS RECALLS WHAT MR. FORTUNE WROTE ON THE SUBJECT FORTY YEARS AGO.
HE following letter to T. Thomas Fortune from Hon. William H. Lewis, of the Boston Law firm of Lewis, Fox & Andrew, one of the most outstanding and upstanding public men of the race to-day, who has declared that he will support Mr. John W. Davis and the Democratic party in the pending cam- sign. will be read with interest:
"My dear Tom:—Thank you so much for your letter of September 8th, and your kindly offer of sympathy and assistance. Nothing could possibly please me more than t ohave your approval and assistance in this movement. I recognize you as the pioneer in this work. I have taken occasion recently to read over some of the things which you have said in your book called 'Black and White,' written forty years ago. One of the things that struck me very forcibly is the following:
"It is time that the colored voter learned to leave his powerless 'protectors' and take care of himself. Let every one read, listen, think, form his own ideas of affairs in his locality;—when the colored voters differ among themselves, and will be found on both sides of local political contests, they will begin to find themselves of some political importance; their votes will be sought, cast and counted. This is the key to the whole situation. Let them make themselves a part of the people. It will take time, patience, intelligence, courage, but it can be done. Until it is done their path will lie in darkness and perhaps in blood."
There were no disfranchising laws and few jim crow regulations in travel when Mr. Fortune wrote the foregoing forty years ago, and the awful history which has been made since then may have been entirely different if the race had followed the political policy Mr. Fortune then advocated.
Mr. Fortune now declares that, among the most conclusive reasons at this time why Afro-Americans should divide their votes and become independent of dependence upon the Republican party is that, as the Federal Supreme Court has decided that all of the social, civil and economic legislation which affects the rights of the race is entirely within the jurisdiction of the States, and not within the scope of Federal jurisdiction,—if the race continues its blind and stubborn support of the Republican party in the Northern and Western States, a like system of discriminatory policy and legislation as we have to contend with now in the Southern States may be expected to develop in the Northern and Western States, in which the influx of Southern Negroes has already created a problem. The privileges and immunities of citizens are almost within the scope of State jurisdiction and are touched only remotely by Federal jurisdiction. That is true of all groups of the citizenship. The State in which he resides is the proper place for the citizen to fight out his fight for justice and fairplay. If he doesn't get these in his State he will not get them through Federal authority because they are not within the jurisdiction of Federal authority.
Mr. John W. Davis is four-square on all questions affecting the rights of the race, and the record proves it to be so. That is a great deal more than the record shows and proves for Mr. Calvin Coolidge.

Harry Wills easily defeated Luis

that more resembled a_steveadore

Yet he managed to stay 12 dreary

“Brown Panther” Harry Wills. Only
in the second round was there a
thrill to arouse interest in the ex-
tensively advertised bout.
In the second round Harry
dropped a short right hand chop on
the jaw of the gent from Argentine,

count. Apparently he was more sur-

a bit too rough.” At any rate, Harry
forgot all about fighting the rest of
that round, and the crowd was dis-
appointed.
The crowd was with the “Panther”
almost toa man. When the big New
Orleans fighter entered the ring a
few minutes before ten, he was given
a bigger ovation than that accorded
the world’s champion, Jack Dempsey,
but a few minutes previous.
Dempsey, for some reason or
other, saw fit to enter the ring prior
to the main bout, and while the big
gathering gave him a nice round of.
applause, they kept reminding the big
champ that the “Panther” was on
his trail, and wanted to know when
he would fight Harry.
The preliminaries were the poor-
est ever seen by us, the best bout be-
ing that between Joe Stoessel and
Jim Maloney, the latter winning eas-
ily. Stoessell was picked by Damon
Runyon as a prospective world’s
champion, therefore Maloney. should
be a champion. Bill Tate scored a
quick knockout over John Casanova,
putting the Casanova gent away in
two minutes and a half of the first
round. A |
Firpo was the first to enter the
ring and was given a mild reception,
but when Harry followed a few min-
utse later, the crowd broke loose and
cheered the colored heavyweight
champion as if he were a king. Harry
was the favorite and when the men
squared off the fans implored him

make a quick job of the visitor from
Argentine.
Wills seemed to forget how to use
his left hand for anything other than
holding while slambing away in
steveadore fashion with his right.
He pounded Luis around the kidney
all through the fight, but made little
effort to use a left hook or to jaw.
But one thing that Harry did do,
was to show up the critics who had
claimed that Firpo would prove
stronger than the “Panther” and he
very clearly proved that Firpo’s right
was a joke weapon. He toyed with
the so-called “Wild Bull” and made
him look like a garden nanny goat.
And just why Harry failed to
knock out the visitor from Argentine
is one of those passing mysteries that
is beyond understanding. If the bout
was on the level, then Wills’ left arm
must be muscle bound or paralized.
The big fellow is not the Wills of
about ten years ago, nor did we ex-
pect that he would be. But he did
have to be no more than 40 per cent
of the Wills of earlier days to have
stopped Firpo, and that quickly.
There were fully 50,000 people out,
representing almost every walk of
life. The colored fight fans turned
out in force to cheer the “Brown
Panther,” coming from all parts of
the country. About eight thousand
colored folks were present, including
men and women. And several thou-
sand more would have journeyed
here to cheer Harry had they been
certain that the fight would certainly
be staged.
BILL DILL.
The Hotel World can justly feel
proud of men who continuously
make good, for the reason that they
are supports for the few remaining
jobs left open for colored men that
depend on ability for continuation.
Bill Dill, one of the most adept
headwaiters in our service, has been
recently acclaimed as headwaiter for
the “Breakers” Hotel, Palm Beach,
Fla., succeeding the late Morris
Skelly, whose personality is a fixed
monument in the minds of thousands
of co-workers as well as guests. Mr.
Dill realizes that his advancement
is creditable because he has proved
his ability in rendering service as
an assistant and now he can_ feel
safely assured, in his new position,
of having the good will of the hotel
men and women from every quarter.
THE TATTLER is expecting big
things of Bill Dill and we cast our
good wishes for his success without
doubt or aspersion of his ability.
Bill Dill is a real jolly good fellow
and should make an acceptable of-
ficer for the new management of
the Breakers as well as the em-
nloyees who desire to return.

ST. CHRISTOPHER CLUB
GIVES BIG RECEPTION
Once Famous Club of St. Phillips’
Parish Stages Great Come-
Back in Dance at Renais-
sance Casino.
Tuesday evening, September 16th
proved a banner night for the re-
vived St. Christopher Club of St.
Phillips’ Parish, for this organiza-
tion that once enjoyed the great-
est popularity of any of the clubs
around New York, got under way
once more when they put over one
of the best dances that this season
will see, at Renaissance Casino, on
that evening.
Many of the old followers of this
club showed their appreciation of
what the revived organization is do-
ing by turning out and aiding in
making this affair the great success
it turned out to be.
It has been many a day since
so many of the old followers of the
once famous “Red and Black Ma-
chine” have been assembled to-
gether, and it made one’s mind tra-
vel back to the good old days when
“You and I were young Maggie.”
John C. Smith’s Society Orches-
tra was on the job with the sort
of syncopation that has made this
group of musicians famous, and
they brought the good old times
close to home with their renditions
of old time melodies of the days
when St. Christopher was ablaze
with the glory of conquest.
The officers of the revived or-
ganization are for the most part
men who were active in the doings
of the old club, and they are: Lau-
ritz M. Berry, President; David
Watkins, Vice-President; Egbert
C. Pile, Secretary; H. Bouchet Day,
Treasurer; Rushford-Lord, Finan-
cial Secretary and Waverly Har-
grave, Sergeant at Arms.
Together with the members of
the club these men worked faith-
fully to make their initial dance a
success, and they were splendidly
warded for their effort.
SANDY BURNS COMPANY
AT LINCOLN THEATRE
Inez Dennis, Sam _ Russell and
George Wiltshire Prove Clever
Entertainers. Clever Vaude-
ville Acts Please
Sandy Burns stole away from
Gibson and the Standard Theatre of
Philadelphia, for a short visit to the
big Metropolis and were welcomed
at the Lincoln Theatre by Mr. Ray-
mond Snyder and several thousand
Harlemites who heard of the famous
Quaker City comedien’s arrival here.
And Sandy certainly made every-
body happy with the aid of his won-
derful_ musical comedy company of
some fifteen people. There was that
most pleasing litle artist, Inez Den-
nis, the queen of song and dance.
Sam Russell, the funniest funny man
that ever cracked a joke, and George
Wiltshire, rated among the best of
straight men.
The litle theatre of Mrs. Downs
was packed at every performance
during the weck, and everybody was
highly pleased with the spirited com-
edy and clever musical numbers of
the aggregation. They featured a
clever little sketch dealing with the-
atrical life, and the public was well
entertained.
Other acts on the bill were the
“Ebony Trio,” of Joe Simms, Ethel
Ridley and Jimmy Thomas, and won
hearty applause for their clever
work, And the two white novelty
acts, one musical and the other acro-
batic, proved clever artists. These
acts were the Miline and Curtis act,
musical entertainers, and the Ox-
ford Trio.

JACK McVEY KNOCKS BILLY KING’S PLAYERS
OUT SMITH IN FIFTH AT THE LAFAYET
Harlemites in general had reason
to celebrate on last Saturday even-
ing, for Jack McVey, a favorite sor
of the district, showed that he is
fast nearing the top rung of the
welterweight class, when he knock-
ed out Rocky Smith, a rugged
white lad hailing from Battle Creek,
Mich., at the Commonwealth Sport-
ing Club.
Smith, who weighed 152 pounds,
put up a good fight against the col-
ored lad, who weighed 148, up
to the time of the knock-out, but
Jeck kept far enough in the lead
of his oppoent to gain the verdict
if it had gone the limit. His count-
ers had the white boy beat
at every turn and his trusty left hand
kept the dangerous Smith from
getting close enough to get in any
effective work. Smith walked in-
to a right cross in the fifth that put
him completely out.
In the ten round semi-final Al
Brown, the elongated flyweight of
Harlem, scored another of his quick
knockouts, when he put Willie
Salter away after twenty-two sec-
onds of fighting in the first round.
Salter was no match for Brown, who
battered his opponent all around the
ring before finally finishing him.
Brown weighed 113 pounds and his
oppoent, who was substituting for
Billy Marlow, weighed 112,
BILLY KING’S PLAYERS
AT THE LAFAYETTE
Billy King’s abbreviated musical
comedy with Billy Higgins leading
the way, got over the proscenium
of the Lafayette Theatre, before the
largest crowd of the present season,
on last Monday evening.
Billy King has assembled an array
of good talent for his current offer-
ing, having no less a star than Billy
Higgins, one of our cleverest wear-
ers of the cork, as one of his chief
entertainers, Higgins stops to show
with his nonsense, and pandemoni-
um breaks loose when he renders
the “West Indies Blues” as only
Billy Higgins can.
| Alexander Patti proved to be a
very clever juggler and balancer.
Difficult feats, such as eating and
drinking while standing on his head,
entertained a large audience im-
mensely,
Ferguson and Smith were highly
entertaining with their nifty danc-
ing, while Justa and her Boys,
though opening rather slow, did
some dancing that gained them
rounds of applause at the end.
Prince Sherdi, in musical novelties,
closed a particularly clean and
wholesome program.
A photo-drama_ entitled “The
Masked Dancer”, with Lowel Sher-
man and Helen Chadwick in leading
roles, came between Billy King’s
abbreviation comedy and the re-
mainder of the bill and was of a
calibre that fitted in well with the
rest of the bill.

HARRY EASILY TOSSED THE “BULL”
ee
“CHOCOLATE DANDIES” lof the slay vomileaatne,
star over Columbia Bt
IS SCORING HEAVILY cuit, carries the burden
ee edy upon his shoulder
(By F. J. ACCOOE) funny fellow surely
Finishing up the first month of
their run at the Colonial Theatre
with unusual prosperity and artistic
success, Sissle and Blake’s “Choco-
late Dandies” seem due for_a long
stay at this playhouse. [For the
nightly throngs that are secing this
production leave at the finale well
pleased with what they have seen
and heard.
“Chocolate Dandies” is without
a doubt the most picturesque prod-
uct that a colored company has
ever presented to Broadway, with
the possible exception of Williams
and Walker's classical production
“ABYSSINIA”, and it is not over-
stepping bounds in comparing it’s
beautiful settings with the best that
Broadway affords.
Johnny Hudgins, chief in support,
of the star composers, and long z
star over Columbia Burlesque cir.
cuit, carries the burden of the com.
edy upon his shoulders, and_ this
funny fellow surely makes a hit
with the public. His clever dancing
has stopped the show at each per-
formance since the opening night
and if the show has the long stay
predicted, Hudgins will have a great
share in it’s success.
Lew Payton supports Hudgins in
admirable style and a host of other
stars who are doing their share’ to
put this production over include:
Lottie Gee, Ivan Browning, Jose-
phine Baker, Valade Snow, Eliza-
beth Welsh, W. A. Hann, Amanda
Randolph, Fred. Robinson, Russell
Smith, J. Mardo Brown, William
Grundy, Mildred Smallwood and a
beautiful dancing chorus.
The racing scene which is very
realistic, with real live horses, gives
the sporting fraternity a thrill the
like of which is seldom experienced
in a theatre. Folks became excited
and all over the house they could
be heard urging the horses to great-
er effort.
“The Slave of Love” the musical
hit of the show has a_ beautiful
theme, but it is doubtful if it will
ever attain the popularity of “Love
Will Find A Way.” The whole
score is very good and compares
very favorably with the one and
nly “Shuffle Along,” and from pres-
nt indications the “Chocolate
Dandies” will enjoy the distinction
f being one of the greatest of musi-
al comedies.

THE HARP THAT ONCE
THO’ TARA’S HALLS
The harp that once thro’ Tara’s halls
The soul of music shed,
Now hangs as mute on Tara’s walls,
As if that soul were fled,—
So sleeps the pride of former days,
So glory’s thrill is o’er,
[And hearts, that once beat high for
praise,
Now feel that pulse no more.
INo more to chiefs and ladies bright
The harp of Tara swells;
The chord alone, that breaks at night,
Its tale of ruin tells.
Thus Freedom now so seldom wakes,
The only throbs she gives,
Is when some heart indignant breaks,
To show that she still lives,

Taking one’s vacation in Atlantic

Now that there is a twang in the
air and General Winter’s advance
guard is advancing on the big city
the “regulars” are preparing places
of retreat when the first bombard-
ment of snow is turned loose. And
what more fitting than that they
should use the cozy little “Rosebud
Tea Room” to snatch a bite while
the dreary battle against winter's
mighty forces goes on. Mrs. Carrie

The Arista dance last Saturday
was a “Whang”; of course no af-
fair is considered smart these days
unless “Embalming Fluid” is plenti-
ful. several taxi cabs played their
parts as undertaker wagons, and
many aristocratic young men rode
home “non compos mentes,” satis-
fied that the Arista dance was one
grand affair.
Young Jacobs was seen at the
Arista dance, with his teeth sharp-

THE PROOF OF CARDAR
by Gary Shaw Shroffy
(Copyright 1924 of The Pamper Writers Guild)
PART 14.
A low groom escaped from all lines so everyone realized the extreme hazard of the undertaking. Cardar, horribly lighting his hair in his hand, with pincer to serrate the strands, managed by dragons of the water only low then thundered from the shore!
With brutal breath and eyes straining to pierce the murky current, they waited his heat reappearance. He was many yards from the boat when finally, the black hand was lifted, not only long enough to get his longer refilled. Then, once more he sank below the surface. The waiting minutes seemed to drag into hours, though still at intervals, he appeared and always forging forward.
He neared the shore at last and cautiously, his body still concealed, he raised his head to look about him. There was no one in sight. About twenty feet downstream, and well up in the mud of the bank, the patrol boat lay unprotected.
Plank on his belly, like the afflictors he so dragged, he crawled along in the shallow water, till he lay just below the boat. Then, always that in the mud, that no eye from the lost at St. Mary's might perceive the movements, he dragged himself up across the bank till his hand caught the offer.
Body gash now, wriggling and twisting in the shores of the river bottom, but in his knee through with almost imperceptible motion, the patrol boat followed his course. A slight of relief escaped his companions on the opposite shore. He gained deep water at last, and the low leashed easily on the light waves. Still swimming under water, Cardar did not release his hold on the rope until the boat held the center of the water, then he let go.
He seconded him and twisted in the water, then with a good bound of freedom, swam rapidly down stream, while he reached and drew safely back to the water and loosened equipment and identification.

Surrounding this central image are four additional photographs, each depicting different scenes: one shows a person riding a horse in a rural setting, another captures a group of people in a natural landscape, the third features a close-up of a person's face, and the fourth presents a group of people in a more urban environment. The layout of the collage is a square with each photograph arranged in a corner, creating a dynamic and visually interesting composition.

Invitations are out for the famous Dance Classic of the Brettton Hotel Boys' Club, which will be held at New Star Casino, 107th St. and Lexington Ave., on Friday evening, September 26th. This club which is widely known for its promotion of highest type of dances, which has presented such artists as Paul Whitman, Vincent Lopez and Paul Specht in three successive seasons, has secured another great group of syncopators for their patrons' approval on next Friday evening.
Wilbur Sweatman, one of the greatest saxophone artists in the world, and his Acme Syncopators, one of the best known orchestras along Broadway, will be the special feature.
Wilbur Sweatman has been heard in most every home, for his phonograph records are used wherever good jazz music is appreciated. He himself is distinguished as the only artist playing three clarinets at one time, each carrying a distinct tone. His jazz orchestra, aside from playing for Columbia Phonograph Company, has headlined over the Keith vaudeville circuit and comprises some of the most efficient colored muscians that can be obtained. This famous orchestra will alternate with John C. Smith's famous Modern Dance Orchestra, which
has successfully held its own against Whitman, Lopez and Specht at the previous affairs of Bretton Hall Boys. An enjoyable evening of continuous dancing is assured the patrons of this dance. We have been informed by the committee that there will be positively no admittance without invitation. So we advise our readers who contemplate making the trip to New Star Casino to be sure and take your invitation along.
Miss Alberta Gray of Knoxville, Tennessee, and a member of the "Yum Yum Girls" who was spending her vacation in the city with Miss Beatrice Morgan of 125 West 138th Street, returned on Thursday night, after having a most delightful time. The "Yum Yum Girls" showed her a royal time.
Dudley Le Hunt, Manager of the "Yum Yum Girls" took Miss Gray and the entire club including Mr. Chadwell Austin of Brooklyn on a sight-seeing trip to Asbury Park on Labor Day. Miss Gray enjoyed herself immensely and will be back in the city in time to take an active part in the fall program of the "Yum Yum Girls" which will include Basket Ball and a special Review. St. Christopher Club, gave their annual fall dance on the evening of Sept. 15th, at the Rennaissance Casino. The affair was strictly invitational and informal: the chair-

McDonald, are to be congratulated for the successful event, many old timers were in attendance, also many socially prominent who have not been seen recently at any affairs. The strict management has given to the old St. C. a memorably come-back and it is to be hoped that they will be foremost among the basket ball players this season.
Virginia Union University, is to hold their annual dance at the New Star Casino, on Friday evening Sept. 19th for the benefit of its annual student endowment fund, which this Club has striven for years to send a student to Union University. The work of the Club under its erstwhile president, Mr. Travers Freeman, who has given to the Club all that there is in him for the furtherance of its work. Mr. Fletcher Henderson's Orchestra has been engaged for the occasion, and the receipts will go to help finance a student at the above named University.

TWO ORCHESTRAS FLETCHER HENDERSON and JOHN C. SMITH
The Women's Democratic League of Tammany Hall, have quite a feather in their cap, in the playground begun July 15th. The street originally designated was 134th Street, but there were three other well equipped play-grounds already there. So the open court of the new school at 140th Street and Seventh Avenue was selected, and the street was closed off by the Mayor's committee where the children played the rest of the summer.
Many trips· the kiddies had through the courtesy of Miss Grayson, who saw to the passes, the transportation and ten cents a piece for the kiddies to spend. Through the aid of Commissioner Morton and Major Jackson they had a boat sail up the Hudson. Ice-cream and plenty of milk for each of the children. Ninety youngsters and sixteen parents enjoyed the trip. Mr. Morgan of the Chicago Defender took a group of children and snapped pictures of them in Morningside Park. Special thanks to Miss Gertrude Roberts, Miss Grayson and Miss Florence and Miss Anna Smith for the sunshine and cheer they brought to quite a number of our little ones throughout the Summer.
Dr. Paul E. Johnson of Chicago, manufacturer of medical physiotherapeutic equipment was the guest of Dr. H. Binga Desmond, of West 35th Street. Dr. Johnson came here to attend the Physiotherapeutic Convention at the Pennsylvania Hotel from Monday until September 13th, 1924. Mrs. Anita Grant of California is stopping here for a while with Counsellor Myrtle Anderson. Mrs. Grant was the recipient of many social favors.
Mrs. Bessie Bearden is home again after an extended trip throughout the South, visiting friends and relatives. Knowing the lovely personality of Mrs. Bearden, it is obvious that she had a perfectly glorious time.

The boys of the fleet had an enjoyable time during their stay in Newport, Dr. West of Newport was very glad to see the old gown again. * * The Wyoming and Arkansas spent one night in New York arriving on the 8th and sailing the morning of the 9th, so the boys only had a short time to see their "sweeties." The time was short that some of the boys were over leave. They must be deeply in love. * * K. Brady and S. Liston couldn't wait for the ship to get to N. Y. so they made a flying trip from Newport and had an enjoyable time on their third day leave in New York. The whole fleet is now assembled at Norfolk, Va., and the boys seem to be enjoying themselves very much. * * J. T. Chavis, C. I. Moore, and S. Williams returned to the ship Sunday morning after spending an enjoyable fifteen day leave at their homes. * * The Wyoming boys mastered very strong in Norfolk last Saturday night. Lots of boys from the U. S. S. UtUah brought up the rear. They must have won plenty of money on the fight the way they mustered so strong. J. T. Chavis seems to be running wild as usual. Kid Powell has resigned from two gun to join the 400. We wish you luck, Powell. * * P. J. Lewis seemed to be taking it easy during our stay in Norfolk. Guess he is resting up for N. Y. The boys send their regards to the boys on the U. S. S. Seattle on the West Coast and hope to meet them again next year in Panama. * * Smile with success for the Hotel Tattler.

Mrs. Helen Hebron who has been spending the Summer in New Bedford, Mass., has returned and will spend the Winter in Lawnside, N. J. * * * Mr. Harvey Maxwell of Boston, Mass., paid a flying visit to Phila, as the guest of his father, at 4112 Warren St. * * * Mrs. Marion Wood of Washington, D. C., is visiting Mrs. Addie Laws, at her residence 512 S. 22nd St. * * * Mrs. Elmo Crutchfield, wife of one of Washington, D. C.'s young doctors, and Miss Florence V. Lee, spent several weeks in Phila. as the guest of Mrs. Pernell and brother, Prof. Elbert Sunby, of 1007 S. 17th St. * * * Miss Edna Upsher, 1714 Montrose St. visited New York as the guest of her aunt, Miss Ethel Purnell. * * * Prof. Elbert Sumby, is back in his office after a lengthy vacation in New York City. * * * Friend Storke visited the home of Mr. and Mrs. Leon Gardner, and left a charming baby girl. Mother and daughter are doing fine. * * * Mr. Thos. Mason, Steward of Girard National Bank, is spending his vacation in Wilmington and Felton, Del. * * * Miss Bessie Carter and Mrs. Addie Laws of Phila., were the guests of Mrs. Bowser of Atlantic City, N. J. * * * Miss Grace Johnson returned to Phila, from New York, but informed us that it was only for a hot minute. * * * Mrs. C. E. Howard is back in Phila, after visiting Washington, D. C. * * * Miss Lillian Sharp, 1929 N. 19th St. just recently returned from a pleasant vacation spent in Saratoga is seen quite often on the golf links at Cobbs Creek, as always Miss Sharp is dressed for the occasion. When last seen she had as her opponent a prominent New York physician who motored over for the match. * * * Mrs. Ida Marcellus and daughter Kathleen, accompanied by little Lorraine Harrison, daughter of a prominent undertaker of Atlantic City, were visitors in the city over the week-end.

Mrs. Jackson's mother was a prominent hair dresser and, of course, it is a safe conclusion to believe she inherited the art aside from her special training for her profession. She is a graduate of Rhodes School of Philadelphia, besides having completed the full Walker's System. She is experienced both in White and Colored work. Therefore, it is safe to reason that she will have great success with her work in this city.

We didn't see who she was but Fitz Brown became so excited when he kissed her at the Dinner Dance that he threw his hat down stairs and jumped in it. Poor Johnnie sitting in the corner, in the tailor shop, in Philadelphia, late at night all alone, while the better ninty per cent was in the big berg. * * * Things are beginning to take on some life in and about the old town. The gossips are standing and sitting around wondering what they will hear next. I am sure that if they keep their ears and eyes open they will both hear and see a lot more than they expected. Now look wise everybody. * * * Speaking of styles not yet fully appreciated on this side of the Great Atlantic, you should have seen Lois Spencer, in her charming new creation of the lighter-than-air bonnet. It was not made for driving in sport roadsters, either. * * * Who was it that said Will Potter was married and had a wife in New York City. Gossip does a lot of harm sometimes, Bill, but I don't think you're married. * * * Charles Johnson and his Famous Shadows have again landed in town. I am hoping that they will not disturb the neighborhood around 15th and Catharine streets. So please, Charlie, watch out for yourself and above all keep that bunch of students and newspaper men away from those children. I will let you know what I think about them after I get a good look. * * * When one mentions School Days it seems we most always allude to children. But in this case I have reference to that large aggregation of adults who are swarming our colleges and universities just to learn how to handle women and drink synthetic likker. One by one they are dropping back into civilization. Then it would be wise to sing the new song and remember it. I ain't goin' to Flunk no more. L. B. and S. G. * * * Business is business, so pay me, Al. * * * Let not your heart be troubled, there's a Magistrate's Court at 15th and Christi, and so, M., when you need to be straightened out go down there and you'll get assistance. * * * The boys are returning home after a somewhat peculiar vacation. Still they may as well have stayed where they were before they arrived in Philadelphia, 'cause they has nothin'. * * * It is rumored that some of the members will remain in Philadelphia after Mr. Vigal takes his troup to Chicago. There are some he should be glad to leave anywhere. * * * There are some good things in store for
seranaders are in town; believe me they tried to have all of the fun at the dinner dance Sat. night. * * * Will Bernard Robinson tell us, please, why the yellow stripe on the old Buick? Is is a symbol of your character, or is it to distinguish the old bus from the Ras Fishers Dodge. * * * Alice Coleman is in town; cherries are out of season but what is there to stop the trambone player at the Inn from bringing along a box of happiness in every box, nothing. * * * Listen, Chick Collins, don't start no stuff.

The image depicts two musicians in a concert setting. The musician on the left is holding a saxophone and appears to be playing it. The musician on the right is holding a trumpet and seems to be playing it as well. Both musicians are dressed in formal attire, suggesting a professional or formal concert. The background features a large window with a cross design, adding a religious or cultural element to the scene.
