The Inter-State Tattler

WINSOME FAVORITE NOW PLAYING AT LAFAYETTE THE MUSEUM OF THE WESTERN WESTERN WESTERN BLANCHE THOMPSON Miss Thompson's singing is one of the big features of Leonard Harper's "Midnight Steppers" Revue. Miss Thompson, always a favorite here, was given a royal welcome on the opening night of the revue at the Lafayette Theatre "A Laugh in Every Line" measuring high temperatures, which has been accepted by the engineering division of the concern. He was a visitor in Rochester on Tuesday, to complete the detail of his automatic heat regulated comb. While enroute to Rochester, he was a guest of Mr. Willard Smith, of the Madam Hudson Beauty Parlor Laboratories, Auburn. Much comment was made of his connections, in Auburn, by the Auburn daily papers. An ice cream social given by the Auxiliary of the St. Philip Church, on Thursday, was a success, they say, that the strawberry short cake was wonderful.

The 18th annual graduation of the New York Academy came to a successful close Friday night July jst, when 20 qualified students re- ceived certificates and diplomas of graduation, It was one of the mast beautiful classes in the his- tory of the school, and their per- formance was witnessed by an in- terested group of 400 peer’ 2.0f. a, I. Stulcup of New York University, was especially interest- ing in his address. He told of how industry and character meant so much in the great. success of in- dividuals who were decidedly above the average. He also put much stress upon what the group and each group should accomplish for ‘themselves in a cultural way, and also the expression of the hope that the Academy would grow into a Junior College. Miss Olive Manners, the honor | student and the class valedictorian, was exceptionally good in her re- marks, as was also Miss Carrie B. Jones of East Orange, in the Salu- tatory. The class play was well acted by the students and received many glowing tributes. The playlet was “The Dress Rehearsal of Hamiet,” and was directed and staged by Miss Ruth E. Roberts, head of the Typewriting Department. Miss Olive Manners, the honor student, received the “Mrs. Ger- trude B.

CARE OF STIES A aty is one of the common in- fections of the eye catised by in- flammation of one of.the glands along the margin of the eyelid. Sties are usually not serious, but are often very painful atid un- pleasant. If they continue over A long period of time, they may be an indication of more serious, ‘trouble, and should be given cure- ful attention, he real cause {is not known, but they are thought by many to indicate eyestrain of some sort. They occur in young children and should be sufficient reason for parents to have their children’s eyes examined by a competent oc- ulist. Our eyes are very delicate or- gans and very upeful , ones. We should give them the best of care and not subject them to strain. Frequent headaches, sties, irrita- tion of the eyelids, or any symp- toms which lead you to suspect that your eyes need attention, should be reason to make you con- sult an oculist or eye specialist.

Without sincerity one haa not a savor to his work. Most of us have wondered at some time why it is or was that most all the traly great composers came from the German nation. It did seem a little ‘odd. Bat when one has aasociated with this people and come to know just what their mental attitude ‘toward music is, one will then know why Beethoven, Brahms, Bach, Mendelsohn, Schumann, Schubert, Haydn, and almost all the great names {fn musie are Ger men, ‘The Germans take musie or whateve: cney undertake very seri- ously. All the musical instructors that To have ever had in all my period of trainin were Germans. George A. Sievers, eminent violin. ist and Presitent of the German Saengerbund, was my Master in Violin, 1 bein: the only pupil of color that he has ever had, and that in the far Southland, where art [s supposed not to be good for certain types of . people. Then there wes Paul Volkmann, operatic tenor, who gave me my initiation into the mysteries of song, and laid the foundation for voice libera- tion. Some people wonder why it is that most, or in fact all, the sue- cessful singers of our group have received their training from per- sons from the other groups, and there have heen heated discussions at. times with regard to the same. There -is but one answer to this inquiry and that ts, if one wishes ter, one nist go to the fountain % One can hardly hope to sure up .touthe wor ee a SE eet . KBVCALEGHt in any line and be content to tutor ‘at the fect of unlearned and un lettered. Another vreat hindrance to the best appreciation of the pro- fessional tutor among us is, the fact that they are willing; to accept mediocrity for art in a great many cases. One makes a point by re: citing cases and - have in mind now a case which T have very pur- ticularly to face, for it lies directly within my path of progress, wherein a widely advertised Teach- er-of Voice and Piano doesn’t: know the generic meaning of the terms. Such wails as come from the studio of (his (Professor?) would not even be cajled singing if there had never been any developnient of the magnifiecnt art of Bel Canto. But such persons make a better living than your conscientious miu. sical artist! And readily, numbers will say why be a conscientious musical artict? For the same rea- son one will be oa conscientious anything else. Decause the Amer- jean people like to be fooled is no reason that one should make a cheap actor out of himself, because in doing so, he is really cheapen- ing himself and affecting those he betrays not at all.

RPER'S NEW ERY GOOD Is Rich and Racy to Finish. Lacks al Coarseness of Productions. amusement is on tapette Theatre this week. Peter's "Midnight Step-king dust in the eyes stra men and, unless are coming out on us and or judgment, they are the sweetest entertain- rved north of Columbus a month of Sundays.

It goes without say- lesque, when it is raw nough, frequently af- fhtful, belly-tickling and of amusement. It is also ous that a well-done burlesque w is more interesting than a orly done revue; hence many of colored shows, in spite of their evitable crudeness, are full of ley hilarity. Nevertheless, burlesque, by its very nature, is a low orm of amusement and the best vehicle of that stripe is inferior to a fair to middling musical com- or revue. EONARD HARPER'S Midnight pers is a genuine revue. It none of the coarseness and aney-smell that clings to the general can of colored shows, and one can praise it without a card-index of reservations in the back of one's head. From the rise of the curtain on Mabel Nichols' Steamboat Sal number to its descent on Mary Pervall's Chicago Stomp, the show moves along as smart as a race horse and a sophisticated man need have no fear of causing his friends to suspect his intelligence when he says, "I like it." MENTIONING the points of merit is merely another way of naming the members of the company. Blanche Thompson Glenn sings: "So Blue" in a manner that makes you feel that way only when she stops after several encores. The Dixie Quartette holds the stage several minutes over time with some pleasing harmony and clever shoe-shaking and when Cliff and Radcliffe unleash their logs and tune in with "Ain't She Sweet," it looks like the show is over. Radcliffe also uncorks an intrigueing brother-sister song specially all by his lonesome. The boy there! AL MOORE, alternating Blanche Thompson and Freddie Washington dancing partners, displays a age full of class in the Spanish Shawl and a Chinese hop-house number and winds up with a society Black Bottom as good as they make them. Both of these girls know their movements and neither of them missed anything when the Lord was handing out good looks. GLENN & JENKINS are just too sweet. They are as competent a pair of clowns as ever diverted the Elks of Keith's Circuit, or delight- ed the farmhands and dairy maids of the Pantage's tank towns. Low- comedy in their hands is handled with efficiency and finesse. Their hooey is obvious enough to fetch the dull-wits and at the same time subtle enough to caress the ribs of the intelligent. As a sample of their double-barreled tobacco we offer Glenn's gag in which he asserts that it cannot be denied that Jenkins is something pertaining to a horse. The implication is, we gather, that his partner is the east end of a horse going west. Patter like that is what made brother Shakespeare's grave-diggers immortal. . . . AISLE SEAT MUSINGS SOME GIRLS who call themselves the Running Wild Songbirds, consisting of Georgette Harvey, Lillian Cowan, Musa Williams and Clarrissa Blue, are doing a summer turn on the Fox-Loew local circuit. We hope that they make good and get an assignment on the regular citizen in the call. We know the husband of one of the girls and if his wife gets a steady job maybe we will be able to borrow a little something from him. . . . WHY doesn't Leonard Harper hire Donald Heywood or somebody to write some special music for the Midnight Steppers, put eight more girls on the payroll and take it downtown and collect important dollars for it? THE RUN of good shows at the Lafayette is getting tiresome. The last several reviews to appear on this page read like box-office blurb, and it ought not to be that way at all. Critics, Bulwer-Lytton would have said, are like knaves. They are flies that feed on, he sore part and would have no means of living if the body were in health. If Mr. Schiffman doesn't slip in a bum show pretty soon, we will have to take the matter to the Lord in prayer. . . . We HEAR that Donald Heywood is holding forth at the Lincoln. Incidentally, Lon Chaney is being shown there in Mr. Wu. It won't be long now before we run around there to listen to Mr. Heywood and take a peep at Mr. Wu. We feel rather ashamed for neglecting the Lincoln the way we have of late. It was one of our first loves. Mitchell 7641 First Class Service Theatrical Boarding House Meals at all Hours Mrs. Hattie E.

Twilight Reverie Friend Romeo Dougherty published a letter from Rollo Wilson the other week which turned our mind backward toward the Harlem of yesteryear. We descanted on the theme with appropriate sentiment but inexcusably neglected to mention a landmark of prewar Harlem to which some of our tenderest memories return. We refer to the cafe that huddled in the 182nd street side of the Lafayette building. The old Lafayette stock company was flourishing then, and after the night performance, the more Bohemian members of the company would drift into the place for refreshments and gossip. Andrew Bishop, Charles Mores, Laura Bowman, Susie Sutton and Tom Brown, were among the nightly frequenters of the resort, and from 11 in the evening till 8 in the morning, they held a round table, which seemed to be a circle of sheer delight. We say it seemed to be, because we were not included in the group. We were a lone gypsy in those days and our interest in stage folk was limited to casual curiosity. Our attraction which drew us to the place almost nightly, was the famous club sandwiches they serve there, although we must adverse to having the hot pepper ripple off. "What do you need to make these eyes at Often we bought her a drink for it. Getting back to the sandwiches, we believe they were the best club sandwiches ever created under Valhalla. They were extremely unorthodox and no doubt their construction violated every code in the sandwich book. The conventional club sandwich is double decked, but we have noticed that Aframerican chefs are partial to making them triple decked, and that is the way they were served in the place we are discussing. But it wasn't the size of the sandwiches that intrigued me, it was the ingenious way they were constructed. The chef, who compiled them was a master of his calling and not only were his sandwiches wholly unlike any other kind of club sandwich made, but each was delightfully different in composition from the sandwiches modeled by the same hand. Apparently he set about making each one with a mind entirely free of precedent and the result was a unique article, which ravished the palate with a delight never experience before and which would never be enjoyed again. All sorts of unconventional things went into those sandwiches. Onions, pimentos, tomatoes, garlic, olives and you never could te what outlandish herb or sauce. By always it was something to gi the avula a new costany, son thing which, manhood but we quaffs of Budw.oser, would make man feel like a brother of God. Lord! Lord!

JERSEY TENNIS True, it is a long step from the brand of Tennis displayed by Helen Wills, Senorita D'Alvarez, Bill Tilden and Monsieur Cochet, in the Wimbledon matches, to the Class "B" New Jersey Tournament held at Asbury Park over the Independence Day week-end, but there is no reason why the contrast should be as great as it is, in view of the THE PRESENT AND H NED GOURDIN & DE HART HUBBARD --- News fact that many of Jersey's most successful and popular professional and business men are interested in this form of athletics. There was clearly evidenced, at the tournament, a much less amount of enthusiasm, diminishing gallery, and, a worse brand of tennis this year than the preceding one in spite of the huge crowds that flock to this section of the Jersey shore each season. Tournaments are for the public. It is the time for the participants to pass in dress parade before the eye of the critic and judge. Just why the public did not witness this particular match in appreciable numbers is not known. Was it poor advertising? Was it known that a very mediocre bunch of players would compete? Was it lack of public interest and enthusiasm? We ask these questions because we love the game; because we want to see a standard set in No pro tennis circles; and because we were dissatisfied with the general idea that seemed to penetrate the ND PAST KINGS De Hart Hubbard was again crowned the A. A. U. king of running broad jumpers on last Saturday at the National Field Meet, at Lincoln, Neb. He is shown here with a former great jumper and all - around athlete Ned Gourdin of Harvard. BARD RACING ATHLETICS tournament Suffice it to say, that we shall expect more playing, more interest and more people in the hopes that this meet will be elevated in another year into its rightful place in the Jersey tennis world. YOUNGSTERS COMPETE It is a distinct credit to Mayor Walker's Committee on a Safe and Sane Celebration of the Fourth, for the plan originated to use the public playgrounds and parks in a huge athletic carnival. Fully ten thousand of our arching took advantage of the gala day by participating in a series of track meets and swimming competition. Every available park and bathhouse were wisely utilized and we doubt that there was one casualty listed. Thus, through the avenue of sports, the lesson of saneness and safety are taught and these future citizens who participated in or witnessed these athletic events have had a splendid initial habit formation instilled into them which will count heavily in length of life in days to come. We suggest a weekly athletic contest meet for our boys and girls in order to prevent the growing number of accidents and deaths that have characterized the Fourth in the hectic celebration of three days. A love of play under pr sup vision is a better poli teach than to allow discriminate use of unprotected waters, dangerous streets and tempting woods. The splendid new bath-house in our community is an unknown thing to many Harlem boys and girls and we have been severely criticized for lack of patronage. Our parks and playgrounds can still accommodate more of our youth so we again advocate plenty of competition and a wide variety of sports in order that. "His Honor's program will be fully realized. Never before has the Tattler had such clever, amusing feature writers as today. These capable specialists certainly don't write just for the sake of writing, but, are well paid for their articles. We have patiently borne the ever increasing burden of this extra disbursement, but now feel that John Public' should shoulder some of the weight. This being the case, beginning, and after July 15th, the price of the Tattler will be TEN CENTS per copy. Em: She wings like a sailor. Em: How do you mean? Em: Rolls on the high C's.

Call Edgacembe 6430 Ask for Phil Davis P. A. J. George, 39 W., 142nd St. OUR STEP in is very much of our colored ladies have ended high school days and are now contemplating upon entering some college for a four year period. Quite a few of these shows are skilled athletes and there will be no dearth of colleges to select from, in case a choice is necessary. However, we know that some of these schools our athletes are not given every opportunity to develop into better athletes. The fear of the colored students superior physical prowess is a discussion that infests the minds of several college heads, and much dissentness may result. We want our boys then to "watch our step" on entering college, and often, the conditions will encourage and they may feel that it will be better to leave. But a hostile atmosphere does not exist in the colleges. From the large number of our lads entering a certain Catholic College up-State, we are sure that no prejudice lurks here. We are not of that faith, so feel that this is not propaganda: are we on the payroll of any think organization. But we are monishing you to "watch your so as to get all that's due education and athletic training. THE LINCOLN GIANTS Displaying their best form, the Lincoln Giants won five ball games over the holiday week-end. At East Orange, N. J. on Saturday, they defeated the East Orange team; won both games of a doubleheader at Protectory Oval on Sunday, and Monday won a doubleheader in antop's Broncos. In the played game this season, the Philadelphia Profes sionals were beaten in the first contest of Sunday's double-header, by a score of 5-3. In the other, the White Plains team was humbled 8-5. The Broncos were completely outclassed Monday and the only feature of the games was the pitching of 19-year-old Roosevelt Owens, who lives in Bayonne, N. J. Owens was making his debut with the Lincoln and allowed but one hit during the game. He struck out ten men, but was so wild the visitors made 5 runs through the 14 base on balls he allowed. The final score of the game was 14-5. The score of the other game on Monday was 12-4. ATTENTION MEN Wall street Morgan of the well known firm of Morgan and Price, has informed us that for matinee sport apparel, the white flannel trousers either striped or plain, a "V" neck slip on sweater, a plain white shirt, collar attached and bow tie, linen sport cap and sport shoes of any design, are right in line. Price, of the same firm writes that the English walking suit will prove very popular this season. Its combination consists of gray striped trousers, blue coat (single breasted) vest double, a white dress shirt, stiff collar (not wing), a black and white striped patent leather shoes. A straw panama hat may be worn. THE INTER - STATE TATTLER HELLO BILL J. DALMU Past Exalted Ruler of Manhattan is one of the most aggressive leader Ruler, Finley Wilson. MOUNT VERNON, N. Y.

Owing to the fact that Monday, July 4th was a legal holiday, the Tattler office was closed and the news was sent in on Saturday, so that is why the column is small. * * * We see that our friend C.

Let's all pull for her success. * * * We regret that the news concerning the visit of Miss Hazel Clark of New York City to her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Clark of Shrewsbury avenue, did not get in.

She is well liked by all. * * * The Tattler man could not cover the Masonic Convention that was held last week, in Red Bank because of other business and a temporary sick spell prevented him from attending but from the reports, it was a "wow."
