To vote the Republican Ticket this year is political suicide. We are no longer children or serfs. We must turn out of power, our false friends, or he forever fallen.

Nineteen Masons Honored With the Highest Degree By Supreme Council
Richmond, Va., Oct. 28th—The United Supreme Council of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry for the Southern jurisdiction of the United States met in annual session here last week. The sessions under Sovereign Grand Commander Robert E. Pendleton of Washington, D. C. opened this the 38th session by attendance at divine services at Ebenezer Baptist Church where Rev. W. H. Stokes, Ph. D. delivered the sermon. He was afterwards one of the nineteen who was honored with the 33rd and last degree carrying with it the title of Honorary Inspector General of Freemasonry. Another minister who honored was Rev. Stewart, Pastor of the great Metropolitan church of Washington, D. C. Both are college men with several scholastic admirals.
Fifth on the list of the honored new, was a newspaper man, J. A. Jackson of New York whose Scottish rite masonic affiliation is in Jonathan Davis Consistory in Washington; but who is located in New York where he is a staff Editor on the Billboard and the only Negro in America who holds so high a position on a publication of national circulation that is not distinctly a Negro journal. He has for a number of years been an editor of Magnetic publications, and been the publicity man of a number of convenions of its affiliated bodies. He is the originator of the Deacons, a new unit of the craft devoted to the greeting of clandestinism, and the protection of intercourse between recognized jurisdictions thru the medium of performers and other travelling persons.
Others on the list included names from points as far apart as Baltimore and California. All were men prominent, not only in Masonry, but in the life of their respective communities some even being men who have achieved nation wide dis- tensions in several ways.
This being the first meeting of a reigning body among Prince Hall Masons since the pronouncement of the white supreme council in Boston in September when that body passed resolutions of co-operation with Prince Hall Masonry, the address of the Soy, Gr. Commander was awaited with interest. He gave expression to a spirit and purpose to meet any and every legitimate effort at harmony with the harmonious greetings that such a broad and tolerant move deserved.

DISCRIMINATION IN THEATRES SAID TO BE GROWING WORSE
HE TATTLER has received a letter from Mr. Walter F. White, assistant secretary of the Association for the Advancement of Colored People, in which, among other things, he says:
"There have been coming to this office numerous complaints regarding the denial to colored people of service in various places of public accommodation in New York City. Most frequent have been complaints regarding various theatres on 125th Street where colored people are denied admission to the orchestra. It seems that there is a definite campaign being carried on in New York City to limit the civil rights of colored people.
"This situation was met in 1918 when as comprehensive a bill as could be drafted was passed by the New York State Legislature. Numerous requests are made to us to prosecute cases under that law but it is obvious that the Association cannot handle all of these civil rights cases, due both to a lack of funds and to the fact that the principle was established when the bill was passed."
It has been apparent to The Tattler for some time that there was a strong concerted movement in the Harlem district, at least of New York City, to draw the color line on patrons of the theatres more tightly. Tickets are often refused for certain sections of the house, and selling seats to colored people in such a way that they will all be segregated, congregated by themselves, is a very common thing in some of the theatres, as we have observed. When reservations are secured the holders are often turned down and the seatings withheld when it is discovered that the patrons are colored persons. A big rumpus is some times caused by this rank business but it seldom gets into the hands of the police, and the aggrieved parties are so humiliated that they do not care to institute a suit at law. They swallow their pride and allow their civil rights to be trampled upon because they do not care for the unpleasant notoriety court action entails.
We have ample laws in New York State to protect us in our civil rights, but we do not always resort to them. We prefer to allow some other one go ahead and fight injustice and the other one does the same thing, with the result that theatre managers and managers of other sorts of public places of accommodation and amusement feel certain that they can draw the color line on us and get away with it, as for some reason we seldom fight back. This conviction gives them encouragement to go ahead with their dirty business.
Some of the trouble is caused by the rude conduct of some of our group, who do not appear to know how to behave themselves in public places. They are offensive to any sort of person. We have time and again been put out of countenance by this sort. They dress well; they seem to have plenty of money; but they have no behavior that entitles them to intrude into the association of decent people, in a theatre or anywhere else. When they manage to squeeze in they make it uncomfortable for everybody about them, shaming their own and disgusting the other people victimized by them. White persons of the same shoddy sort do not usually force themselves where they do not belong, and when they do they are generally made to behave themselves.
Be sure you are right and when discriminated against make the proper protest and appeal to the courts for justice. That is the only way to meet and overcome any sort of unlawful discrimination. We are publishing from time to time the Levy Civil Rights Bill of N. Y. State for the benefit and guidance of Tattler readers who may became aggrieved in their citizenship by the denial of their civil rights by theatres and other places of public amusement and accommodation.

who win. Those who lose are never disposed to shout. They feel ugly defeat and some of them act ugly. They are not good sports who do that. And there are bad sports as well as good sports, as the saying is.
It has been a remarkable campaign in many ways, three cornered, when narrowed down to the leading parties and candidates, but with some ten other groups, with candidates and platforms, not a bit like those of the three major parties. That shows that the American people are far from being of one mind and satisfied with social, civil and economic conditions as they have been developing and have come to a head. It is the supreme privilege and immunity of an American citizen to vote the way he thinks, and it should be his right to be able to vote and have his vote counted. It is not so now. It will be so before the end of the chapter. The life of the Republic depends upon the working out of that fact in American politics.
For the first time in the politics of the Nation the Democratic platform and candidates have made a direct appeal for support of Afro-American citizens, while the Republican platform and candidates have been silent or evasive upon the issues in which Afro-Americans are vitally concerned. The LaFollete Progressive party has made the like appeal. It has all served to emphasize the fact that the Republican party has reversed on the supreme question of human rights, and allowed the Democratic and Progressive parties to grab and get away with that question. Because of this fact, it has developed during the campaign, in which The Tattler has played a conspicuous part, that large numbers of Afro-American citizens have deserted the Republican party and will vote for Democratic men and measures on Tuesday next, because the National Democratic platform and candidates have squared themselves more nearly on the vital questions that affect most directly the best interests of Afro-American citizens.
The Tattler expects John W. Davis to be the next President of the United States and Alfred E. Smith to be the next Governor of New York State, and The Tattler will vote the way it thinks. Go thou and do likewise.
THE HUMILIATED KLAN GOVERNOR OF MAINE FROZEN OUT OF NEW YORK
HERE was very much interest in New York State when it was announced that somebody had invited Mr. Ralph O. Brewster, the newly-elected Governor of Maine, avowedly elected by klan support, to stump New York State for the Republican candidates. It was generally felt that somebody had blundered. When an effort was made to place the responsibility no one would shoulder it. Everybody dodged the responsibility for Brewster.
It was given out that Governor Brewster would speak only in klan centers where he might be acceptable. But there did not appear to be any such centers in New York, and the last word was that Governor Brewster had been spewed out of New York State into some distant State not mentioned for publication as a guarantee of good faith. He just came into New York State to make Republican speeches with the proper klan flavor and was repudiated and remained silent in seclusion for a few days and then faded out of the State as silently and mysteriously as he entered it; but he did not go out as he came in, as far as his feelings are concerned; he went out humiliated in all of his parts. He will carry the humiliation with him back into the Maine woods, and his neighbors will laugh him to scorn in the place where they had exalted him by their votes, not knowing what they did and regretting it if they do, having realized that to be tarred with the klan tar is a mark of great dishonor.
Note and Comment BY T. THOMAS FORTUNE
ORD BALTIMORE said: "We are living, we are moving, in a grand and awful time." Those who have eyes to see and ears to hear quite agree with him. We are living in a time and enjoying advantages which were never dreamed of in the philosophy of our forefathers. Few of us ever stop to give that fact a thought. We just accept it without thinking about it. That is the line of least resistance, and the average disposition is to take that. Only the few ever look up into the glorious face of the sun. They look down to the earth for the most part. Why is that? Because, of course, they are earthly.
I often look long into the face of the sun. It strengthens my eyes and burns up the cobwebs in my head. Did you ever etry it? How often do you look above your eyes? Most people think on a level with their noses, and each has two, separate by a wall of partition, and they seldom see any further.
Let us see. I ran up to Buffalo Friday morning of last week, made an address for the Afro-American Trade and Commerce Club, of which Mr. James A. Ross is one of the loveliest wires, took the 12 o'clock train back, reached my office at 10 o'clock Saturday morning and did a big day's work. The distance is about 900 miles. What of it? Why, the thing is miraculous. Nothing like it

was dreamed of when I was born 68 years ago. And there was the Pullman service, with luxurious provision for observation, eating and sleeping. There was no question about getting the service. It should be that way in all of the States. "You pays your money and you takes your choice." If you can't do that as others do it there is something wrong to be regitted.
There were some ten Pullmans on the return trip. Every berth was taken. There were only two Afro-American passengers.

It should be so in all of the States, but it is not, and will not be until the people of all th eStates become as intelligent, cultured and democratic as the people of New York State, and that is going to be a long time in being. Why? Because the people of New York State are the most intelligent, cultured, wealthy and democratic in the nation.

OUNCES OF PREVENTION
By Dr. B. S. HERBEN
of the New York Tuberculosis
Association
THE SURGEON SAYS
"A woman who has two special nurses and does not need them may be robbing some other woman of fe!" The surgeon was speaking of the earth of nurses and the inestimable value of a good nurse in those critical hours and days following operation. The private patient and the one in the ward of the hospital—they were both the same to this great man—and the life of each was the motive of his untiring efforts and the magnet which constantlyrew his thought.
It took but a second to recall the visit of the afternoon—the call made upon a pleasant acquaintance who happened to be his patient-in-the-private-room. It was natural that this remark brought back the picture of the flower-filled room and the alert nurse satisfying the whims of the patient who no longer needed her exceptional skill. The words "some other woman" brought up the vision of the visit to the ward which the surgeon made before going home to dinner. Here was another matter. From beside the bed of the desperately ill woman arose the tall, thin husband with a face deeply lined, reminding me of no one so much as of Lincoln. The busy nurses, taking care of so many patients, were going from one bed to another.
"Doctor," the man said, "I think she ought to have a special nurse, after all, even though I can't really afford one. Can I get one now?" "There isn't one to be had. I've been trying to get one for—wait a minute!" The surgeon snapped out an order to the attendant by his side. Turning to the anxious husband, he said kindly, "We'll have a nurse if we have to wreck the institution! Don't worry."
Afterwards I learned that he had ordered the second nurse off the case of the patient-in-the-private-room, and told her to report for duty on the ward case at once. I happened to discover in a round-about way that he almost lost the wealthy woman as a patient, though in the end she saw the justice of the move; and he paid the cost of the nurse's time while she gave special attention to the poor woman. He dosen't know that I know that.
Oh, yes! The little woman lived. You should have seen the face of that husband when he took her home.
Why can't we have more young people taking up nursing? Always remember that if you do not actually need a nurse, it is selfish not to release her so that she may be available for one who is "poised on the top of some huge wave of fate, which hangs uncertain to which way to fall"—for the patient who may die—may live!

I have had the opportunity at various times to serve on committees, national and local, working in behalf of the community at large but on which before my appointment the Negroes had had no direct representation. Without a single exception the presence of a colored person made the group more definitely conscious of the fact that Negroes merit and should have equal consideration with other people. And besides, frequent opportunities were offered for me to present the cause of the Negro in a more effective manner than otherwise would have been possible.
I have in mind specifically the candidacy of Dr. Charles H. Roberts for Congress from the 21st Congressional district. I write this with no desire to influence colored people in their party affiliations but only to say that I trust that every Negro who has a vote in this district will go early to the polls and in voting make no mistake in locating the square in which to put his cross for the election of Dr. Roberts. If elected he will be the first colored representative in Congress in many a year. And here the Negroes need a direct voice and vote in the conduct of the affairs of our native land.
The first requisite for good relations between the races in America, I should say, is mutual respect. Negroes have always been taught to respect white people; white people are taught NOT to respect Negroes. Whites cannot do otherwise than respect them, however, when they show qualities that merit the good opinion of mankind.
A colored man of Dr. Roberts' attainments in Congress will stand before all of the people of America and his upright qualities and saneness of judgment and action will be appraised and will command respect. Let us not lose this great opportunity to take this important step towards securing another strategic position in the "fight for a chance."

OUNG PEOPLE, it came to pass that one day when the recording angel was getting ready to fly down to the earth the Lord God stopped her at the door and said:
"Honey, do you see that prosperous-looking brown-skin young man down there? When he says his prayers he never asks me for anything. He just says: 'Lord, I thank Thee for this day and all its blessings.' Now, I haven't given that young man any more blessings than I have given to the other young men that stand round about him. But whereas these other young fellows are always asking me for something or complaining because they haven't more gifts given to them, that young man never asks me for anything more than I give him. And, yet he is the most prosperous-looking man in the settlement. So, Honey, when you come back tonight I want you to bring me word concerning him.
As soon as the angel reached the earth she drew near to the prosperous-looking young man, opened her book and made ready to write. There was quite a bunch of young men standing round near the hall door, because the Boss of the big creosoting plant had given his hands a holiday that they might come to this hall and hear a free lecture about the creosoting business.
The young men were joking and talking and the angel was wating with her pen ready when an old man came along leaning on a stick. The old man was not very stylish-looking and he was so feeble that when he dropped his stick he could not stoop down to pick it up. The prosperous-looking man looked to see if any of the men nearest the old man were going to pick up his stick for him and when he saw that all of them went on smoking and talking he sprang over there, lifted his cap and picked up the old man's stick. While the old man was thanking him, the Boss came out of the hall and asked:
"Anything wrong?"
"No," said the old man, "I dropped my stick and this young fellow picked it up for me."
"Oh, I see," said the Boss. He turned to the prosperous-looking man and said: "I think you are one of my men." "Yes, sir; I work with the carpenters as a helper."
The Boss wrote it down then he said:
"This gentleman is my father. He wants to show him over the plant tomorrow and I guess you are about the best one he could get. I'll tell the foreman to give you a day off."
The Boss and his father went on and all the other young men began to say how lucky Bob always was, and to grumble and complain because they never had any luck. But the recording angel wrote in her book:
"The other men threw away a chance to do a kind act. The prosperous-looking man took the chance, did the kind act, and made a friend of his Boss."
The men went in to hear the lecture and the angel went too.
When the lecturer had made an end of his talk, he said:
"I have a little time to spare before

The prosperous-looking man looked to see if any of the others had a question to ask, but they were all busy uncrossing their legs and getting their hats ready to put on, so he went up to the lecturer and said:
"Yesterday, I heard the big Boss tell my boss to make a five-hundred gallon vat five feet deep and twice as long as it was wide. How did my Boss know how long to make the vat?"
"That's a straight question," said the lecturer, "and here is your answer."
While he figured it all out and explained it the angel wrote in her book:
"The prosperous-looking man took advantage of a chance that the other men threw away and so acquired knowledge that will help him to rise higher in his trade."
Along toward the end of their holiday as the men were going home they came to a fruit stand. The owner of the stand was fussing around because a box-full of half-rotten apples and potatoes was making his shop smell bad the garbage cart would not pass for hours. The other men began plaguing the fruit dealer, telling how bad those rotten things smelled and asking him who he thought would buy fruit in a shop that smelt like that. Pretty soon the prosperous-looking man lifted his cap and said:
"I'll take that box away right now for what's in it."
"Go to it," said the dealer.
The prosperous-looking man set the box on his shoulder and as they passed oh the others began exclaiming about the fine lot of pig-feed he had picked up for nothing:
"No wonder your pigs are the finest in the settlement! You are forever feeding them on stuff that hasn't cost you a cent."
While they were exclaiming the angel was writing in her book. When she had made an end of her writing, she flew back to heaven and showed the record to the Lord God, saying:
"Lord, that man is prosperous because he makes the best use he can of the chances that you give him."

THE TATTLER
perpetuate his political bondage to one party, and to help elect Ku Klux governments. The Negro politicians from and in sections where there is no colored vote, seem to be the most easily fed and lead. If the Negro is going to a political gallows, he is under no duty to spring the trap himself. "The Republican Party has neither character, conscience nor courage. It apologizes for corruption, malfeasance in office, and will take no stand upon any living issue; it has not the guts to denounce a faction of that party, the Ku Klux Klan element which controls it.
"Mr. John W. Davis has, upon every occasion, made it known that he is opposed to the Ku Klux Klan, at Sea Girt, Syracuse, and recently at Cleveland. Race and religion will not be a test of fitness for office when this great American President of the United States, the 4th of March next.
"Should Mr. Davis fail to receive a large number of the votes of the colored race in the spivotal states, it will be a distinct calamity for my race in this country. The colored voter is on trial. Has he political acumen or not? Does he know that the election of the Republican ticket means a national administration, dominated and controlled by the Ku Klux Klan, with its avowed policy of exclusion from office, elimination from politics and placing him under a band of regulators not amendable to the law, because the Ku Klux would then control and administer the law?
"John W. Davis and his party today are fighting the Klan, and the Klan is fighting them. Our only hope for successfully meeting this issue is to vote, and work for John W. Davis as the colored men and women are doing in Indiana, Illinois, and Ohio, and wherever the Klan shows its hooded head and cloven hoof. It will be a distinct advantage to our group if we should have in the President's chair a great lawyer such as Mr. Davis is, who knows the Constitution by heart. He has defended our rights under the 14th and 15th Amendments, and won our most notable battles in the Supreme Court of the United States against the Grandfather Clause and Peonage.
"I am making a last appeal to men and women of my race, where ever they vote, and in whatever village, hamlet, crossroads or precinct, to turn out upon Election Day and give the new National Democratic Party a trial.
"I am appealing to my intended fellow victims of the Klan, to the Catholics, Jews, and the foreign born, and every decent, law-abiding American citizen of whatever race and creed, to stand with us in this fight against religious bigotry, and race rule in America. A vote for John W. Davis will put an end to the Ku Klux threat. It will give us an administration to which any American may look with pride and confidence."

HOWARD-WEST VIRGINIA GAME ENDS IN A 0-0 TIE
Washington D. C. Eleven Gors Ints
Action After Lay Off and Hold
Buryby Warriors of Virginia
To Secrelone Tie
Washington, D. C. 'The pigskin Warriors of West Virginia Institute and Howard University battled to a concordance at Griffith Stadium, Friday, afternoon, October 24th before a crowd variously estimated as between 2,000 and 3,000. Howard's eleven lived up to its pre-season reputation as the strongest defensive eleven in colored intercollegiate circles. No team has made a first down against Howard this year. Howard punctured the West Virginia defense for eleven first downs, y. Mint AJrhoibio 30s ... eC... In the first quarter, just after the kick-off, the "Bisons" began a march down the field which landed the ball on the opposite six yard line. Here the West Virginia defense stiffened and the ball changed sides on the "Yellow Jackets" one yard line. After this neither team was in serious trouble.
For the most part the ball was kept in West Virginia territory. Long spirals by Turner, star and on the visiting team, rescued his team from many serious situations. The Cardwell uprising was effectively surpressed. Howard's forwards played superb football, McLean, former quarterback on the Lincoln eleven played a starting game for Howard both on offense and defense.
Howard's next football battle will be against the Wilberforce University eleven. This game will be played on the Wilberforce University campus at Wilberforce, Ohio, next Saturday, November 1st. Last year Howard took a 10 to 0 victory from Wilberforce and they expect to duplicate this feat by a larger score.

"LIVE NEWS WELL FEATURED" THE TATTLER
AL BROWN STOPS ASH AT COMMONWEALTH
Scores Spectacular One Round Knockout Victory Over The English Champ; McVey Whips Ballund
At the Commonwealth Sporting Club of Harlem, little Al Brown, the package of dynamite, exploded and spilled Frankie Ash all over the ring in the feature bout of twelve rounds. Brown turned the trick in 1 minute and 56 seconds.
The little Englishman was completely outclassed and never had a chance. Brown tore after him at the sound of the song in the first round, and in less than half a minute he landed with sweeping right and the representative of John Bull was introduced to the canvas with his feet sticking up in the air. Ash took a short count and struggled gamely to his feet. He thinned around the ring with Al in hot pursuit, shooting with that deadly right. He caught the white boy after a few seconds, and Ash was dumped again. Badly hurt and groggy, Franklin managed to scramble to his feet and run like a frightened rabbit.
But Brown was not to be denied and started after his victim grimly bent on the task at hand. He again cornered the white boy and shot home that devastating right and poor little Ash crumbled and went down for the third time within less than two minutes. Battle torn, dazed and hopelessly outclassed, he struggled to his shaking pins only to stop a wicked left that toppled him over and he laid as if dead while Jiddle Munson, the time keeper and referee counted him out.
Jack McVey, fighting one of his poor fights, lost a splendid opportunity to score a knockout victory over Harry Galland in the semifinal of ten rounds McVey easily outclassed his opponent and won with little effort. But he was not the Jack McVey that stopped Rocky Smith a few weeks previous. He seemed listless and apparently tired, which gave the impression that he had not trained properly for the fight. And his hippodroming on several occasions did not make him any friends.
In one of the early rounds, after the bell rang indicating the round was over, Jack stood and watched Galfund as the latter went to his corner. This caused McVey to be hounded by the gallery gods, who took exception to his burlesque actions and indifference.
McVey lost a splendid opportunity to strengthen his claim as a championship contender among the wetterweights, by failing to knock-out his opponent. He had the white boy in bad number of times, but slowed up just when he might have added Galfund to his K, O, List.
The weights announced were: Al Brown, 112 lbs; Ash, 111½ lbs; McVey, 14½, and Galfund, 15½.
"THE BIG FOUR"
Harlem would not be Harlem without the diversified characters that make up its population, as the Big MI/Tea Miniarch Voir, who know everything and everybody, knew everywhere, knew everything decided to give the "Shiver Mine Miniarch" a vacation, so in Maybern 1916, they are going to give a dance at Palace Garden and will not doubt spent $1000 for the fun.

Brilliant Play of Ted Bolden The Big Vactor in Violet's Victory Over Visiting Elevon; Gets Away for 45 Yd. Run
New York University's mighty eleven gave a wonderful exhibition in defeating the strong Trinity eleven at Ohio Field Just Saturday, by the score of 12 to 0. Ted Bolden of N. Y. U., around whom coach Tom Thorp has built a triple threat was again the outstanding star of the game.
The speedy, hard running elusive halfback got loose for a forty-five run that placed the home eleven in a position to score, and Howes was given the ball to make the tally.
Taking advantage of their opponents' faulty handling of the pigskin in the first period of play, N. Y. U. gained a two point advantage when Terrell was forced to fall on the ball behind his own goal for a safety, after a poor pass by the Trinity center.
Neither team was impressive in the second period, but the local eleven came to life in the third period and ran rough-shod over their Hartford opponents. Hawes ran the kickoff back twenty yards and Ted Bolden, on a tackle play, rounded forty-five yards before he was downed. Then followed a series of line plunges and a fifteen yard penalty against N. Y., U., which was up on a pass, after which Hawes made the touchdown on an end run. Three more points were added in this period on a placement kick by Howley, from the thirty yard line, which ended the scoring for the game.

BAKER GETS DECISION OVER BUDDY SAUNDERS
In Fast and Puroviously Battled Bowl
The White Millin Boy Gets the
Honor; Saunders Given Big
Ovation at End
The wildest and the building went
in the most together in a 1/2 round
battle, ripping, smashing, hearing
at each other with all the fury of
their fighting hearts; and the bul-
ding was given the laurel wreath
in victory at the end. But he was
a work and bruised animal, his body
carressed by the miserable claws of
the cat, was aching in every point,
and he was glad it was over.
Yes, the wildest was Bunny Spanders of the fighting 31st National Guard Unit of the state, and the building some other than Sammy Baker of Michael Field.
The late taught it out in a return army at the 21st Division Train's show at the 47th Regiment Army, Brooklyn, Tuesday night.

early rounds caused the judge to give him the decision, but it was a nip and tuck affair, first one in the lead, then the other. And both ladies knew at the finish that they had been in a fight.
The boys are waterweights, both sealing under 145 pounds. It was their second meeting, Saunders winning the first with a terrific fighting spirit in the closing rounds. Baker duplicated Saunders's feat in the first encounter, and he, too, came from behind to crap the verdict.
Winner and winner were both cheered by the big gathering. Saunders was given a warm ovation.

"CHOCOLATE DANDIES" BEGINS ELEVENTH WEEK
Simple and Blake's Latest Effort in Musical Comedy Entern Third Month of Play at Colonial Theatre
"The "Chocolate Dandies," Sissle and Blake's spectacular musical comedy production playing at the Colonial Theatre since September 1st have finished their second month's run at the popular Broadway Theatre and are now beginning the third month. That the expensive theatrical amusement entertainment presented by Bert C. Whitney, featuring those two popular entertainers has met with popular approval is attested to by the splendid attendance that has been drawn to the Colonial at every performance.
A tremendous out lay of capital has been invested in the production. First for the talented group of artists featured, and secondly in the costuming, scenery and mechanical devices. Neither money nor paints were spared in the effort to make it the biggest possibility ever presented the public, resulting in the most colorful classic in many years.
The local presentation precedes a long tour of the United States and possibly Europe. The large cast of Dixie Punters includes, besides the stars, Noble Sissle and Ruble Blake, Lew Payton, Lottle Goe, Josephine Baker, Valada Snow, Elizabeth Welsh, Jimmy Perguson, Amand a Randolph, Addison Carey, J. Mardo Brown, W. A. Hann, William Grundy, Lee Randall, Inez Clough, Ivan H. Browning, Russell Smith, Percy Colston, George Himore, W. H. Berry, Mildred Smallwood, Lloyd Keyes, The Bamville Opera House Band, the Sissle and Blake Symphony Orchestra, and a chorus of beautiful brunettes which is by far the largest and peppiest seen in many a moon,
JOHNNY HUDGINS SUED BY BERTRAM WHITNEY
Johnny Hudgins was served with papers demanding him to show cause why he should not be restrained from playing with any other company or place except with the "Chocolate Dandies" and such theatres as they play.
At the present time, Hudgins has a fat contract with the Shuberts and is presumably entertaining at the "Club Alabama," while the Shubert people care preparing vehicle for him.
But, Mr. Whitney claims that Hudgins had signed a contract to play in the production of Missle and Blake at that time known as "Bamville," but later known as the "Chocolate Dandies." Johnny signed at $150 a week on the road and was to get $200 in New York.
Considerable friction was caused because John wanted to be "Properly billed" as he claims. From after the New York opening he left the production, claiming that he had been paid only $112,50 on the road and since this constituted a breach of contract on the part of the producer he became thereby a free agent.
At some time between his departure from "The Chocolate Dandies" and his appearance at the Club Alabama' Hudgins signed a thirty weeks' contract with the Shuberts at $400 a week.
"SNAPPY AND INTERESTING"
Gene Jones, Clever Planist, and Two Good Comedians Save Production from Being a Big Bloomer, Lacking In Material
"Oh Honey" opened at the Lafayette Theatre last Monday for a two weeks engagement which was cut to one after the initial opening. The company was rushed here lacking in material. Gus Smith and Leo Boatner, black face comedians, and Miss Gene Jones were the saving grace of an otherwise very poor attraction. The band also was fair and under better conditions would pass muster, but would not be rated other than just ordinary.
Miss Jones wrote the entire musical score for the production, we are told, and she proved an exceptionally good pianist. Her playing on the ivories while the musical entertainers had the stage, won her hearty applause.
The two comedians, Smith and Boutner, worked hard and did well in holding up the show as far as they were able. Unfortunately, the material they had at hand had been used somewhat previously and lacked the punch. It was a re-bash that failed to do more than win a momentary laugh that died almost immediately.
Not one of the women leads was any where near the standard. They all lacked stage deportment and crude and amateurish in the execution of their work. Miss Rosetta Swan possesses a fairly pleasing voice, but she did not seem to know how to get on or off. The "Blues" singer's number should be taken out.
The vaudeville acts, all white, were not anything to boast of an did not show to any particular advantage, Maxon and Moritz was a novelty singing act; Joe Dever entertained, if you wish, on the accordion, and Van and O'Donnell gave a sketch of the "Traffic" work.

Vote for Hammerstein
Election Day is very near, and there is a lot of dissatisfaction. Who is Harlen's choice? Not the politicians, there is not much difference between our election and the real one, except that there is no slush fund, or any other kind of fund; in our election you will be allowed to vote once,
We enter Oscar Hammerstein as a candidate, so we will be sure to have "light beer and heavy wines," another candidate who would attract the women's vote would be Jack Glyens, and to help the ticket along Count De Cassie of the Kingwood Garage, who is usually covered with grease and all would slide in smoothly.
We are not sending out any stamped envelopes for a return answer. If our voters can't afford a stamp then we don't want their votes; we are catering to a different class of voters from the Literary Digest; we are asking for votes for the High Brown Party, as has common Stamp directs the Lilly Whites from which we are excluded.

MONSTER RED MOON DANCE AT NEW STAR
Under The Clever Direction of Professors Darling Mack and Charles H. Anderson, It Will Be The Treat of The Season
Any one residing in the metropolis of America, and being the possessor of two eyes, could not fail seeing the wonderful advertising posters displayed in every nook and corner announcing the coming of the Red Moon Dance. In addition, twenty five thousand invitations have been sent broadcast, not only in New York City, but in every neighboring town, within the radiance of the city.
It is a question whether Star Casino will accommodate the mighty throng which is expected to attend. The Red Moon is revolving on its axle, and on the above date will spread its brilliant rays down upon its many patrons at this beautiful palace of pleasure.
The Red Moon Orchestra, which will furnish music for this affair is, rated one of the best in the musical world. Every member of this aggregation is a star, and under the clever leadership of James A. Bowman and conductor Darling Mack, you are assured of a night of real happiness, along the road to Wonder Land.

"NEWS FROM EVERYWHERE"
Under the watchful eye of Prof. Darling Mack and Prof. Chas H. Anderson, this company has become one of the most powerful of its kind in existence. At their last two affairs neither Star Casino nor Manhattan could house the crowd. It is evident that this company is sparing neither money nor pains to make this affair the greatest event of the season. They promise you nothing but give you all. In the near future they contemplate offering for your approval a road show. The Tattler wishes them success.
THE MUSKETEERS PLAN A FASHIONABLE WHIRL
The sands of time run swiftly, here we are on the threshold of the most unique, fashionable and talked of Dansante of the season. To those of us who take on society in large doses, it seems that only a few days have elapsed since the popular Three Musketeers entertained at Mine. Walker's magnificent studio.
Five days from to-day has been Palace scheduled for the most brilliant invitational event of the season at The New Palace Garden, on Seventh Avenue between 139th and 140th Street, for this event. The Three Musketeers have accepted three of their associates to assist, namely Mr. Wm. Patterson of the Prince George Boy's Club, and Mr. John Stewart.

GEORGE IMMERMAN AIDS MANY HARLEM FAMILIES
Mr. George Immerman one of the proprietors of Connie's Inn, is one of New York's good fellows without a peer, although much criticism has been hurled at him and his brother by a certain newspaper in Harlem, little does the public know of the good things that these boy's have done for members of our group.
In an interview with a TATTLER representative, George Immerman exhibited to him proofs of financial assistance to colored families in Harlem, some of which he is paying their rents without any thought of returns.
Mr. Immerman also stated "that rumors has been circulated from time to time that he did not care for the patronage of members of our group," this he branded as a gross falschood; it is the opinion of many that this rumor was circulated by interests that are trying to be the regulators of colored Harlem, Mr. Immerman further stated that he is conducting a public place, and all are welcome, except the rough element of both races, and that he has given his employees strict orders to extend courtesy and service to all patrons alike.

That you have caused me; you may speak
The words that should relume again
The fierce fires of passion that fused
Your spirit into that of mine

But should you come and claim as thine

Master Minds of The Big Broadway Musical Comedy Success Will Lend Their Aid for The
Harlem elite are waiting impatiently for the First Annual Charity Ball for the benefit of the New York Urban League which will be held at the New Manhattan Casino on Friday evening, November 14th. Socitey matrons are storming Mrs. Florence Richardson for possession of the boxes and loges which will hold the flower and cream of Harlem. Our most charming and beautiful debutantes under the supervision of Miss Wilhelmina Adams and Mrs. Esther Archer are planning to add a touch of festive air with novel favors and programs.
The attraction de luxxe of the affair is the initial appearance in Harlem of Sissle and Blake and their "Chocolate Dandies"; while John C. Smith's Modern Dance Orchestra will satisfy the most exacting ear and lend wings to dancing feet. Mrs. Antionette Deming who has charge of the tickets reports a most successful advance sale which is most encouraging since influential friends of the League have promised $5,000 if a like sum can be raised in our group. To help earn this splendid offer, the committee sponsoring the dance headed by Mrs. E. T. Parks and Mrs. Bernia Austin, have underwritten the expense of the hall.
We understand that the Committee of 100 has not yet been completed and that by sending two dollars to the treasurer, Mrs. Geraldyn Dismond, one may jjoin with this body of ladies who are so generously giving their services for the welfare of the less fortunate of our group.

First of all we wish to apologize to Mr. and Mrs. Gorden J. for what was said in the Tattler issue of the 19th of Oct. as we didn't know that he had been granted his wishes already. All right for you two with all that under cover stuff, you might jolly well have let the Tattler in on your sly trick. However, we are not mad about it, and we wish you luck, we wish you joy we wish you first a baby boy and when his hair begins to curl we wish you then a baby girl, and that goes for both of you, Ha, Ha. * * * We know a certain sheik that used to be always raving over a certain sheba whilst she was in Asbury Park last summer and never missed a week sending her the Tattler. Now the Sheba is back home in the 1700 block of McCullah St. and we don't hear any more talk of her, maybe he liked her better when she was away from him. But maybe he thought he drew more water than he really did and when she found out that he was getting sweet with her, she gave him the gate, maybe. * * * The sheik seems to find it a very hard proposition to get away from the 1700 Block, he is playing a fat mama in the same block of Madison Ave., now and he is tickled simple over her; everybody else is singing Red Hot Mama and he is singing big fat Mama. Hay Hay! * * * We wonder what the young lady of the sewing machine store on Druid Hill Ave Thinks of Marriage Life. We see she still clings to the old job, wise girl sez we.

Long before the evening sun had begun to set behind the mountains, had the folks from the rugged hills began to assemble to the little "Burg in the Hallow" for the grand Madi Gras Carnival and Sheiks Frolic; long before midnight there was standing room only and not much of that. Auto parties from Covington, Clifton Forge and White Sulphur Springs, and numbers of guests came in on the train assembled. The music was furnished by Schepers Orchestra. It was supreme, and made the guests trip it on their light fantastic toes, until the wee hours of the morning. Mr. Powe, the proprietor, must be given credit for such a gala affair. * * What The Eagle Eye Saw was, Catherine L. was too much in love to attend the ball. Fred. Hamilton slapped N. because she wanted to dance with another fellow, in the prize waltz. * * J. Frazier came to get his chicken—what kind of "chicken"?—but he left right away. * * David L. the old guard started dressing at eleven and finished at one, just got there for the prize waltz. You should see Green-backs fly. * * Bob Jenkins, kept his eye on M. and would let her get five yards from him as the "back biters" were busy. * * Can you imagine: Nelson McFadden going to a ball; Yeiser being sober once; Lord Worthy a sweetheart; Albert De La Mont biting Balyntine in the back before his eyes; Elizabeth Howard making love to Carrol and Sales at the same time; Catherine C not speaking to Yeiser; Rufus Jones home asleep, but still he wins a prize; (a pair of socks). But we were glad to see Mr. Girdy, the Tattler reporter of Covington there, with a big party. Mr. Jack Hamilton, the Headwaiter of the Cafe full of smiles, and the Popular Mr. Robert Lee the Secretary, was the judge of the prize waltz. Mr. George Taylor the Floor Manager. Mr. and Mrs. Ivy Heard, won the prize waltz. Mr. William Roberts, the Charleston Contest, and the Orchestra "Home Sweet Home." * * Mr. Powe raised twenty dollars from the Carnival Booth for the Welfare League. * * Albert De Lamont, didn't your conscience tell you, you were doing wrong when you went t othe station to bid him good-bye, and then returned to the cottage to bite him in the back, and still biting him? * * William Roberts is really a confidential man, he promised to buy Gertrude's dinner every day and stop her from eating at the Hotel. * * Why is it Thomas Anthony, the tailor, delivers clothes to the girls in the Wilson House, after 11 o'clock at night. * * We were sorry to know of Miss Bessie Donovan's illness, and wish her a speedy recovery. * * As the leaves begin to fall and the ax goes up, now boys, is the time to be careful, as it may come down on you, and Christmas will only mean Thursday to you. * * We were sorry to see Mr. Mathews Yeiser and Balyntine leave for Philadelphia, and we wish them success on their trip. * * After The Ball Was Over; Sales and Carrol tried to pull a Wills-Firpo at the Wilson House over Elizabeth Howard. * * Lord Worthy tried to navigate out of the window of the Wilson House. * * Nellie H. was tripping up and down the hall until four o'clock trying to dodge Fred. so she played sleep, so the poor sap could go to bed then, she made her headway upstairs. * * Odessa got hers because she would not go to bed from Willie. * * Dr. P. stood out in the cold hall for an hour waiting for "Josh" to go so he could see Alemena. * * The Moonshine on the moonshine for Chat! * * What did you say to Leslie Payne, when you saw him through the Key Hole, B. J. * * Mr. Powe wished to thank every one for their kind patronage and support they have given the Tattler, while in Hot Springs, for now, he is leaving for New York and wishes to meet many of the old faces in Miami, the Tattler town, this Winter.

Carpenter, Bill Dockins, F. Venie, H. Bell, and Robert Scott. Misses Carpenter, with her Oriental dance, F. Venie with her Sarah Martin voice should make Hbg. proud in the near future. The comedy is good, but a bit to smutty in places. * * * Mrs. Wm. Walker and Mrs. Theo Frye spent the week in Carlisle attending the Old Home Week Celebration.

Subject for discussion will be Co-operation, lead by Mr. S. A. Waddell. Luncheon will be served by members of the Ladies Auxiliary. Business and professional men invited. * * * Rev. O. H. Brown will be the speaker at the boys' meeting Sunday, 2 P. M. All boys are invited. Meetings are growing in attendance each Sunday. The boys greatly enjoyed the message from Mr. Sims, last Sunday, on the subject of "Lives of Great Men." * * * Rev. W. Spencer Carpenter addressed the High Y club Thursday evening at 7 o'clock. Rev.

Wagstaff and get it. 427 Michigan St. * * * We see that when Acting Traffic Officer Braggs was stationed at the corners of Michigan and Broadway, the traffic was handled successfully. But the big Brownic must have looked too good to the O'Fay traveling public, so it took two O'Fay traffic officers to do the same work so unsuccessful that there now stands a lighted silent signal. Officer Braggs is a credit to Buffalo negro citizens and the Race. * * * The "My Cab Co." have added three more cabs to their number and believe me they are My Cabs, Your Cabs and Everybody's Cabs; but a Van Dykes, headache, I'll say. * * * Luther D. of New York City sent W. A. Payne with a letter of introduction to an old girl friend in Buffalo, and got bitten in the back. A case of "Leave off the old love and bring on the new," but what's a girl among friends.

Sinto gave a Dance at American Legion Hall last Friday evening, which was well attended.
Mr. Charles Taylor of Cleveland has changed his shebas for better or worse. A certain sheba told him she had three thousand berries in the damper. I guess he will get those balloon tires now, and if not why er, er, well it will be too bad, that's all. Minnie had his trunk packed when he came back from his last trip, any way, and it seems as if the poor fellow is just in dutch all around. What's truly wrong Charles? Tell us something. May be we can help you. If you need any assistance, just hollow, but please behave yourself and be good. * * * Big Eddie had Kid's water on but he did not have time to get his hat and coat on. Why was that Old Top? Answer. * * * Sugar Meyers and Porto Rico are now professional valets. They all lost their homes. * * * Billie, be yourself and let that new sheba alone. Sue is forty after Good. * * * The Third District A. C. is coming along nicely under the direction of Red Johnny and Hot Stuff. These boys are putting Cleveland on the map. Congratulations to you Old Tops and all good wishes. Would that we had many more such fine chaps. * * * Ula May pans her sheik all day so that's why her bucks are so low D. G. * * * Mack is not playing big gamble since he lost his flask. Too bad Old Boy, but we see you are still around the corner. That's all. Be good and don't lose any more of your valuables old deah. * * * Alice R. why don't you come out and play? The girls say you are afraid of a certain sheba. Is that really true? We don't believe it, so come on out. * * * Jesse Day got a "Floater" out of Youngstown. Good for you Jesse. * * * We see a certain up-town sheik has a hash slinger. He must be getting set for the winter. That's right friend. Look out for the cold. * * * Woodchuck Wood has a new??? Look out F. C. * * * I hear another certain sheba is wearing seconds and how many more times green dress. Hey, hey! * * * To Miss Rena Moxley and Miss Bobby Mahoney, I beg your pardon most humbly for last week's items. Here's hoping the same is accepted. * * * Who was the square that snatched the rose off of B. C.? * * * Why does A. M. worry about the Sharon sheba? P. M. doesn't want her and M. D. says it's nothing in her young life. * * * John Johnson, better known as "Hot Stuff" has graduated from the "Poor Boys" list and along with him is Jesse Miller. They have their hoops on the poor boys' list still so poor boys, pay attention. * * * Charlie T. and his Dream Daddy, are raising cane. Shall we inform Cleo? * * * It's too bad a certain sheba cancelled her engagement to be with Baby Cal and the Watch Fob. The next day he had a C.

They tell me that B. the oee, was waiting for you with a hammer. Is that right? Too bad. * * * A certain Sheik said the American Express is too slow, so he sent the radio to Sharon, Pa., in the Stutz rapid transit but the charges were terrible. Page P. M. * * * The Buick coupe may park here or there, but D. C. says he loves you. Good. (You can come out now.) * * * Mr. Earl C. says my Babe loves me because she allows me to have long distance shebas. Be careful and don't let us hear any blues Babe. * * * Miss Gollie M. says she gave up Pete M. like the sea gives up its dead. No wonder Mr. Bob W. isn't here to stay. * * * Credit must be given Mr. W. Williams for the way in which he directs his recreation parlers at 55th and Central Ave. It is one favorite hang-out for all the uptown boys. * * * The "Big Three" met Monday morning at the office of the following papers: The Hotel Tattler, Pittsburgh Courier, and last but not least the Afro-American.

P. E. A.'s were victorious over Union University's Freshman Team. The P. E. A.'s captured the score 17 to 0 on the gridiron at Hovey Stadium. The Progressive Education Association as the initials imply, is a body of young men under the directorship of Mr. Benj. F. Vaughn, Editor of the Richmond, Voice. These boys are being well trained socially, morally and physically. * * * The sheiks of A. H. S. with those collegiates are the "rave" of the school. Page Robinson from West. Va., who sings in the Glee Club. * * * Perhaps it would be interesting to note that A. H. S. Glee Club is planning big things this Semester, the Glee Club is fortunate enough to have Miss Florence Fields (pianist) back this year. Miss Fields is a student of Armstrong Normal School. Under the able and efficient direction of Mr. John A. Nixon this aggregation of young people who are students of, and interested in, the study of Music will make a name that will be sounded on the tongues of all music-lovers and bring honor to its school, dear old Armstrong. * * * The P. E. A.'s Oriental Ball was ultrasmart. One was carried into the interior of the Orient. The Sheiks and Shebas vied with each other as to the wonderfulness of the night, the gorgeousness of the costumes, and the desiring effects of the decorations. Prof. Harris Hilton and his Syncopated Orchestra, with the aid of the Oriental Tom-Tom played many and Oriental strain, and the sweet music like an infinitesimal sirocco swayed the many Oriental couples to a high degree. In the wee hours of the morning the "Orientalers" wended their way homeward. On every lip was the P. E. A.'s have everything that's classy and smart. * * * Be sure to drink "Delecto," sold at 2nd and Clay Sts. at John's confectionery. "Delecto," this wonderful refreshing drink was formulated by Julian Pittman, a Richmond boy. Don't forget to try it. It has 3 flavors in. Nuf sed! * * * Before pulling the mote out of your neighbors eye; pull the beam out of your own. * * * Jack Neal has the sharpest collegiates in town, those grey ones are ultra smart. Say Jack are you a model for O. H. Berry's. * * Get your Tattler at Second and Leigh Streets. * * * Can you imagine: Lelia Flourmou staying away from V. N. I. I.; Coleridge Davis directing other than a Musical Comedy; Paul Cannon not trying to be a sheik; Jack Neal without 10 suits; Florence Smith not ritzying; Almeria Edmunds staying off 1st St.; Irma Denny driving a "Lizzie"; Anthony Bagley without his Tattler; Laurence Allen not dancing; Grayce Jones not play and singing; Maurice Weeks not trying to be a Sheik; Chester Washington not handing out a good line; Warren Wilkins not being deep???? * * * As we look forward to Hallowe'en, Richmond has many festivities to engage in. The Norfolk Jazz Hounds will give a dance at Acme Hall, South Richmond. The witches and goblins and all other queer personages, will parade the streets. Much fun and enjoyment is anticipated in every groupe. * * * Of course, Richmonds ultra-smart society will have their usual exclusive functions pluss gorgeous costumes.

Each in their own way trying to convince the Negro which would be the right way to vote on November 4th.
The Whitman Sisters
The Patrons and first nighters at the Standard Theatre were repaid for pulling out to witness the exceptional Bill of the Standard Theatre this week past. The feature of the program, however, were the Whitman Sisters and their New act, entitled "Rompin Thru." These girls have always brought something new with them but this time they were at their best and the entire act, was a sure winner from the beginning to the end. The little Tot which they are featuring is a child wonder and Prince Albert helps in totish way to send the act over. As usual the house was crowded to doors and it is predicted that this will be one of the best weeks that the Standard has had. The Whitman Sisters have always been a drawing card because they offered the Public real amusement.
Gilpin At Dunbar
Charles Gilpin the Star of Emperor Jones headed the Faree Comedy "Are You a Mason" which opened at the Dunbar Theatre on Monday evening. His interpretation of Amos Bloodgood was strictly up to the minute and in keeping with his artistic qualities. The show although not strictly modern was well done and pleased the audience which out numbered those who attended the last week's show. Mr. Gilpin was ably supported by a noteworthy cast of which Edna Lewis Thomas led.
Johnson Quits Phila.
Charles S. Johnson, one time owner and Manager of the "Hurry Along Revue" has given up the show and left Philadelphia, the reason for Mr./Johnsons sudden departure is not known, but rumor has it that the entire company refused to work under what they called unbearable conditions which were brought about by not being given a square deal by the former manager. Having watched the show with interest since its first performance we were sorry to see this break, however, the member of the company seem happy and are putting more effort into their work, the genial (Mrs.) Duncan seems happy. Bobby Lee is whipping up his unusual band, and the "Cinderella Inn, is still the most popular place in town.

CLUB NOTES
The Jolly Club
Two Bands Continuous Dancing, From 9 Until 2
The Jolly Club of South Philadelphia started a little something new when they secured the "Lawnside Inn" at Lawnside New Jersey to stage their rather up-to-the-minute evening of amusement under the title of "Bits of Passing Shows." This idea was conceived by Mrs. Minevra Bush Howard. The talent of the evening of October 27th. gave a pleasant and splendid performance and every one enjoyed themselves. They have established a precedent for othrs. Those who were featured on the program were Clyde Lee, Helen Tippett and Mrs. Howard. Gumby's Society Serenaders furnished the music for the occasion..
Arcadia Barn Dance
The Arcadia Barn yard Dance was certainly a knockout and everybody had a wonderful time. Tom C. hardly knew where to get off as I counted six of his flames there. Bus, the cute little brown made a fuss over you and had things going her way 'till the charming Edith stepped up and claimed her own. The Tattler girls, wonder who holds the winning hand, Edith or Phillis. Wonder what Clara has to say. Go easy Bus. Louise isn't worried 'bout Leticia nor Edith. She knows her Troy loves her. Ax how bout the apartment? Peter you did a bit of backbiting at the dance. Slow down Pete. Humbolt you can't get yourself together did all the girls forget you while you were away, I though absence made the heart grow fonder. The Sheik T. C. has to wonder which one shall I see tonight. Don't let so and so catch you at a certain place. Tom. Why not be congenial Mr. Griffin you make the balls and someone else throws them.
Forum Will Discuss
"The N. A. A. C. P. as a Means of Inter-Racial Amity will be the topic for discussion by the Forum of the Citizens Republican Club on Sunday Afternoon, November 2nd at 3.30 P. M. Sharp. The public in invited to participate in these meetings. The discussion will be led by Julian St. George White the Secretary of the Local Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Hon. Charles Fred White, member of the State Athletic Commission spoke last Sunday on "Segregation in the Governmental Department at Washington." His speech revealed the continuance of this pernicious practice.
Rajah's Radio
Skipper Worsham had to bring all of his nautical knowledge into play in order to pilot last Monday's rip snorting, blood and thunder meeting of the Black Star Line Variety which was navigated on the upper deck of the Good Ship, Ernest Clark, 1526 N. 20th Street. "Paul Specht Whiteman" Monroe, Roscoe' Simmons, Heartbreaking Joe" Lymas The hereafter provided by Ernie was 100 proof and the gang really crooked a wicked row of elbows before hitting "Phila's Rotten Transit." The Club is indeed fortunate that it doesn't have to put out any herbs for flowers as Walton and Herbert absolutely refused to be killed or even in (Continued on Next Page)

WHAT OUR NEIGHBORS SAY IN OTHER CITIES
jured on the Niagara Excursion. But judging by their resignation threats, the shock of the collision must have affected their upper stories, at least. The mystery of the box of cakes which never reached Traymore Hall on the night of the Bal Masque along with other boxes has been solved and sad to relate as a result of the discovery, Martin and Tyson have wished on themselves that undesirable nickname of "Cake-eaters." No wonder that Harry's "Chicagoans" created a sensation at the Radio Show at the 2nd Reg. Armory when they Broadcasted Wednesday night. With a Jew, and Irishman and a Dutchman doing their jones along with four sons of Ethiopia. Lady Luck was bound to be there as well as "Dr. Ability".
The ultra Dames a Club of young married ladies of the city gave a masked Party at the home of Mrs. Rebecca Johnson, 109 N. 54th St., Monday evening, Oct. 27th in honor of Miss Mary Pipes of Atlantic City, a most pleasant evening was passed.

Ha, ha. * * * Teddy W.—why so downhearted these days, did Sweet Mamma A—give you the air? * * Elwood L.—and Alice K—are hitting it on all cylinders so look out Geneva G—* * * We wonder if the Kissell is being repainted? Open air garage, page Louis Spencer. Since the Kissel is being repainted "we have rooms for rent, hey,." * * * Mr. Haines the well known sheik of 17th St., we wonder where you keep yourself these days? They say Mules kik, did Maud? * * * We wonder how the delmonica's new owner makes her bucks since the ball-players are out of town? Page Hootch. * * * George Fiall, what's the attraction in Phila?. The operator is kept busy page long distance. * * * Say whatever became of Lucretia Anderson since the Rajah's dance, what's the matter old dear? Kid, I don't know what you were supposed to be that night, but they all knew you, hey, hey. * * *
Mr. Cat eyes, better known as the W. Phila postman of the 39th & Market St. station, seems inclined to be stuck up since drawing a regular salary, we notice at the Rajah's dance, "hey, hey, small timer."

Gettie (Slue) was the first one at the meeting, and the first one to park at the table. We all want to know where Althea was to-night? * * * We all want to know why Chick Edwards was on Master St. so early the other morning? We heard he was visiting Miss Stewart. * * * Helen (Sparky) would make a good waitress as she carries the coffee pot from the kitchen to the parlor. * * * Gettie and her sweet hubby were on the job but not with his V-63. * * * We are glad to have Miss Ethel Jackson with us again, and wish her a speedy recovery. * * * Muriel has a sore nose, I suppose Bert parked his fist there.

to somebody else. * * * H. A. is some sheik, can't get his business right. But don't let M. H. Catch you. To bad Jim. * * * What does Cutie mean when he tells sweet Miss Thelma to go to his roost and get his Laundry which consists of B. V. D.'s, two collars and his Photo. Why not move all at once old boy? * * * Well we have noticed that the two famous sheiks of the Washington visited the city for a few days from New York. Now what brings these two Lords of Music over here we are at a loss to understand. But you can bet Freddie and Mr. Wetsel have been doing some wire-pulling, you bet Kid. * * * Some one has whispered over the wire that Hurry Along Revue just missed being good and hungry. Especially since their guide and guardian Charlie Johnson, did a Keller trick and faded out. How and Why? Well, that's what everyone wants to know. * * * Some sinister influence is at work removing all the dead wood. Maybe that is why the Revue is going better. Perhaps Bobby Lee will take the dancing under his instruction. Who knows many strange things are happening these days. * * * Well since M. R. Percy Verwayne has landed back in the Quaker City, he lost no time in looking up some of his haunts of former days. Those Shebas don't mean you any good Percy, lay off. * * * Somebody asked what keeps Charlie McClane smiling. Perhaps he has a new vision and is going to follow it. * * * It's strange how that Special Officer at the Royal Theatre holds up under the strange and tedious hours and chinese food. Some people can do anything. * * * Alright Mr. Daniel. We all know that you are a smart young man devoting all that is best in you to developing your line. However, don't cross the street so much and we think that you will do lots better. You may be used to doing other things. Watch out. * * I am sure if John H. managed to get a little more rest at night he would look better and not as if he was constantly all in. Late hours do those things to a fellow. Go in sometimes. * * * If that crowd at 44th and Fairmount Ave. would only keep their mouth shut a little more it would be better for everybody. Some of these days a friend is going to close some of those mouths that hold too much tongue. * * * It is funny how things get out. Just recently we find that old Dave Asbury did his best to go thru this Summer at Atlantic City and write his Name Hon. when giving a card to Marylin Pipes of Atlantic City. Well Dave we all know your game, but you must cut the stuff and especially the Hon. Thou shalt not covet. * * * STORM WARNINGS. A certain Newspaper man of the city has issued a warning to all the Sheiks who idly block the pavements of the Roadside and other meeting places to lap off one lady, just one. Nuff sed. * * * Viola H. * * * What was the trouble Saturday. Did you get your wires crossed? * * * G. Hobson was that a jealous play or do you mean it. Be yourself son. * * * Ametta W. Why don't you keep your promise sometimes. * * * It is too bad H. C. must go all the way to N. C. to get a girl when we have so many nice ones here. * * * Miss I. Drummond, Bill said you did not speak to him. What is it all about? * * * It is indeed difficult for us to call the former Miss Naomi Thompson, Mrs. Naomi ——. Wonder if the last name is Reed? * * * We wonder if the gang around Stewart's Hotel know about the checks that Chef Crump is signing for the pretty Sheba and her friends, don't be no chump boy, feed her but refuse to sign for her friends three a day.

THE MAN FROM MEXICO AT DUNBAR NEXT WEEK
Sensational and Amusing Farce Drama To Be Presented Here Next Week With Edna Lewis Thomas in Star Role Next, week, the Manhattan Players, who seem to have endeared themselves in the hearts of Philadelphia theatre goers to the extent that Manager John T. Gibson extended their engagement at his New Dunbar Theatre for another four weeks, will present William Collier's Great laugh success, "The Man from Mexico".
This farcial comedy H. A. DuSouchet is a real rib-tickler, and gives Miss Edna Lewis Thomas and the other favorite members with the Manhattan Players a real opportunity to show what they can do. Miss Thomas, whose charming personality has won her so many admirers in Philadelphia has been besieged with letters daily congratulating her upon her splendid performance in "The Cat and the Canary" the opening bill presented at the Dunbar.
"The Man from Mexico," is one of the funniest farces ever written, and was used by William Collier for several seasons as a starring vehicle. In the story a hunting trip into Mexico is the camouflage put up by the husband to prevent his wife from knowing the truth about his incarceration for enjoying a night off. The wife, however, is interested in prison work and comes frequently with comfort and delicacies for the prisoners; her husband's efforts to escape detection occasion a good deal of fun. The warden's mad infatuation for the wife adds to the complications.
There will be a special midnight performance of "The Man from Mexico" on Tuesday, (Election Night) starting at 11:30 o'clock and election returns will be received by special wire and read from the stage. The usual Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday matiness will be given at 2:30 and the night performances will start at 8:30.
