LAST week was a good one. Two formal parties at which to parade your new spring evening clothes—the R. E. P.'s and the Phi Beta Sigma—and oodles of subscription dances to which to take your informal evening togs. Friday as usual had two affairs, the Columbus Hill Nursery dance in the Henrietta Building and the Lincoln Nurses at the Manhattan. Both got away big and reported a good time. The coming week brings us the Debutante's Benefit at Smalls, the Arctic Whist Club formal at the Renaissance, the Olive Norman recital at the Elks, a Regimental Review at the Armory, the New York Students Second Annual Spotlight Dance at the Imperial, the Handy concert at Carnegie Hall, the Club of Twenty at Rockland Casino and the Fashion Show at Manhattan Casino. Whoopie Dearie!
EPSILON SIGMA CHAPTER
of the
BETA SIGMA FRATERNITY
NEW YORK CITY
At Carneigie Hall, Monday evening the Society of Friends of Music, which includes such notables as Dr. Foster Peabody, Walter Damrosch and Percy Grainger, presented the Hampton Institute Choir of ninety voices under the direction of Dr. R. Nathaniel Dett. A packed house turned out to hear the celebrated singers who have been praised by the best artists for their splendid work and even compared with the Russian symphonic choir.
**
The program offered such favorites as Son of Mary, Listen to the Lambs, Let Us Cheer the Weary Traveler, Deep River and Lord Have Mercy On Us, which by popular acclaim was the favorite of the evening. Sacred songs of the early church, Russian Leturgical Anthems, Religious Compositions by American composers and Negro Melodies made a very interesting and varied musical treat. While Dr. Dett has retained the Negro idiom and skilfully handled his voices yet there was a feeling of restraint which should be divorced from Negro folks songs sung by Negroes.
* * *
In the audience were Harry T. Burleigh, Taylor Gordon, Harold Jackman, Frankye Dixon, Countee Cullen, Chauncey Norther, the C. F. Woods, Stewart Whiting, Venie Jackson, Walter Baker, Katherine Huges, Andrew Burres, Gerald Wilson, Reginald Mitchell, the Nick Jefferson, Arthur Davies and Alfred Mc Nickles.

Epollon Nigma Chapter of Phil Beta Nigma Fraternity held its annual Formal Prom at the Renaisance Casino last Wednesday evening. Desked out in paper hats, and beautifully supplied with confeit, noise makers and novelties, the guests of the frat danced down and made innumerable trips to the palace of wine" made by the Nigma boys.
The President, Dr. Oma H. Price, led the grand march which included all Sigma men and formed two semi circles in front of the orchestra stand. Surrounded by his brothers, he welcomed his guests and dedicated the Frat to Bigger and Better Negro Business. A vocal solo by Brother Coles, accompanied by Miss Florence Herbert and a xylophone solo by Mr. William Handy completed the intermission.
***
The guests were many and beautifully dressed. Mrs. Alice Nearon in a red and gold evening gown was accompanied by her husband, the charming Dr. Fitz Nearon; Miss Rosie Swain was a doll in an elaborate peach tulle frock especially designed for her and decorated with French pearls and rhinestones. She wore peach hose and satin slippers to match and an enormous bouquet of sweet peas. The wife of the president, Mrs. Ruth Price had on a magnificent black chiffon trimmed in beads and over gold. The brides and grooms Dr. and Mrs. James L. Wilson and Dr. and Mrs. Meredith Brooks were out. Mr. and Mrs. Bouchet Day, Miss Thomas, Dr. Clifton Randolph, Dr. and Mrs. Errald Collymore of White Plains, Dr. and Mrs. Ernest McDonald, Marie Mahood, Robert Skeeter Gorham, Rozalis Crawford, Ethel Harris, Thyra White, Constance Perdue, Dorothy Boyd, Inez Quinn, Miriam Price, Lawyer Myles Paige, Mr. and Mrs. Ormond Lockart, Katherine Handy, Dr. and Mrs. Eugene Brandon and Mr. and Mrs. Teddy Daniels were much in evidence. The girl friends—Ethel Murray and Marjorie Smith wore green georgette while Thelma Thomas came in baby blue daintily headed and topped by sweet peas.

An so it came about that the Royal Entertaining Partners, eighty-five in all, with R. H. P. Charles Thorpe as president and
---
R. E. P. Walter Hughes as secretary did royalty entertain at the Renaissance last Tuesday. The guests arrived early and stayed until the last minute. The R. E. P.'s have a reputation and nobody takes a chance on missing a single minute of their annual parties.
***
The feature this year was the Cotton Club Revue. And that about got it. The girls have the smartest new costumes the latest wiggles and as if that was not enough, they have added Cora La Dedd, a chocolate beauty from Nassau who is a complete and distinct riot all by her lonesome. Of course the Duke was at the piano. The buffet luncheon was served this year by the Marguerite and was hungrily welcomed after the hours of R. E. P. liquid refreshments. Dear Lord, please let me be invited next year.

Saw Edna Thrower Friday night in the new Edward Masey play, Box seats at the Little Theatre. The trim and winsome Edna makes a pert and efficient maid to the well kept lady Hazel Lawrence. As usual she works with ease and snap and her lines are delivered with clearness and accuracy. A splendid addition to the cast. By the way, see Box seats. It has that heart appeal that makes you wipe your eyes.
**
Have been trying for a week to hand in my word of praise to the theatrical Guide. First of all, I fall for its smart appearance. The cover is most unusual and attractive. It reminds me of nothing so much as an Old World Almanac. Learned that its slick finish is obtained by a coat of varnish which also makes it waterproof. Very clever. The amount of information that Mr. Snelson has managed to get together for it is almost unbelievable. The first day it arrived I used it three times. How have we lived without it.
* * *
Hemsley Winfield and Goldy Steiner appeared in "Him" a three act play of twenty one scenes by E. E. Cummings, at the Provincetown Playhouse. Miss Steiner sang "Frankie and Johnnie' the great favorite of the village.
***
Queen Esther Circle, Mrs. M. D. Hurley president, Mrs. J. Mc Claymont, promoter and Charles H. Dickens, master of ceremonies, held a business and Industrial Hour at Mother A. M. E. Zion Church last Sunday. On the program were Noah D. Thompson, business manager of Opportunity and Mrs. Carrie Bruce, assistant resident manager of the Dunbar apartments. Both Mrs. Bruce and Mr. Thompson, were invited by Bishop Caldwell of Philadelphia to address a business meeting in Philadelphia.

At the Handy concert at Carnegie Hall Friday night, J. Rosamond Johnson and Taylor Gordon will be featured on the program.
Both Katherine Johnson and Margaret Johnson are ill. Katherine is threatened with appendicitis and Margaret falls for the popular La Grippe.

Paid my respects to the Lincoln last week. Enjoyed the show right down. Charles Olden better known as "Dickey Bird" makes a wonderful addition to the Anderson Players. Lady Ida, herself, is some spellbinder. Her voice which is very throaty because of a cold reminded me of the renouned Sadie Thompson's. I like the drama-musical-tab combination.
The lovely Edna Lewis Thomas
stopped in the other night on her way home from the Alhambra where she is now the leading lady of the Alhambra Players . Shall treat myself to one of her performances this week.

Majorie Smith, Inez Quinn, Lucille Parker and Ethel Murray, chaperoned by Mrs. Chas. B. Smith and Mrs. Belle Johnson, visited Washington and Howard over Sunday. They left for the Capitol City on Saturday evening. They visited relatives and friends in Washington. Lawyer Emery Smith met them at the station and showed them Washington's scenes of prominence and points of interest. No pains were spared by the Washingtonians in making their visit most interesting. Mrs. Pinkney just heard they were coming down and was right at the station to meet the folks too. Mrs. Hattie Davis and daughter Vera prepared a most delicious breakfast after which Eunice Dickson, Lucille's girl friend, joined them and went the rounds. At Howard they met the star high jumper, Robert Wendel Hainsworth, Thomas Hawkins, football star who gave them facts about the campus, and Bob Lundy. At Miner Hall Mrs. Herwick made them at home and Estele Chavous gave them full sway of her room and the company of her room mate, Goldie Taylor. Ethel Griffin, Mildred Taylor, Miss Gregory and Miss M. Walker were among those met at this point. Christine Carsten was on duty at Freedman's but secured a temporary excuse to chat with the girls who were introduced to Doctors Rector, Wiggins and Jackson by Lawyer Smith. The party had the extreme pleasure of going through the New Medical School, with Dr. Roberts of Raleigh, N. C., who was visiting Howard at the time.
Mr. Mayhugh Arnold Graham or the National Insurance Co., and Mr. Alfred L. Pinckney, Commercial I$nstructor, joined the party at this junction and they traveled on to the Congressional Library. They then visited Captain E. T Hawkins, Inez's uncle, Mrs. Hawkins and her mother, Mrs. Thrope; and Mrs. Wiggins, relatives of Lucille. They then returned to Mrs. Davis' home where they again satisfied their desire for food previous to a few hours of mirth and enjoyment, and then returned to New York. Next time girls, please take us with you.

Brooklyn News
WHERE was everyone Sunday? It seems that I tried in vain to locate a large group of Brooklynites. I found some but all in different places. In the morning I dropped by Nazerene and enjoyed the sermon very much, there I observed Misses Arline Woodley, Hazel Bunn, Dorothea Mason and her popular little sister Winifred with Bea Walker, the Mr. and Mrs. Turnquest entered late, but they are such a goodlooking couple, that we always managed to excuse their late entrances to affairs, because they even were late to their wedding, not their fault (so I was told). In my pew were, Miss Virginia Groves, Mr. Fred Perry and Harold Lockley.
In the afternoon a visit to the recent ill Miss Lane was paid by many young men, such as Jean Henderson (who prepares delightful punch but has a habit of imbibing most of it himself), Carl Johnson, Johnnie Davis, Ginny, Mr. Brooker, Buster, Fuzzy and a few other celebs. Mr. and Mrs. Robert took us out in that too bad Studebaker and showed us and Co. a nice time—we were frozen when we returned. On the o'fay aye: we

THE LAFAYETTE THEATRE has Jimmy Cooper's Brown and White Revue this week, supported by Sidney Kirkpatrick and Laura Bowman in a pleasing little sketch entitled "Late Hours" and the spectacular screen story, "The Private Life of Helen of Troy."
Coopers revue was somewhat of a disappointment. The Ofay part of the program was a sort of novelty in as much as a black and white vehicle has not played here in many months. One little girl showed to advantage. A Jaque Mason, soubrette, steps in a way you'll like it, certainly the Russian steps at least.
Octavia Sumler, Baby Cox, Billy Mitchell, Russell Lee, three harmonizing youngsters and eight prancing ebony maids take care of the jigwalk end of the entertainment. Baby Cox, the trio, and that fast stepping chorus unit are the outstanding features. Miss Sumler presents a pleasing picture (just as pleasing as when I first met her in Atlanta) and registers well with her audience. Billy Mitchell, comedian, has oh so little to do. As a matter of fact, there's very little comedy in the contraption. The singing of the boys is one of the big features.
Sidney Kirkpatrick and Laura Bowman score in their racy little sketch, "Late Hours". Miss Bowman's work is highly pleasing and her selection, "I'm A Little Black Bird", is a treat that wins well merited appreciation.
THE ALHAMBRA PLAYERS, a cast composed beyond a doubt of the leading race dramatic artists: J. Lawrence Criner, Edna Thomas, Charles Moore, Susie Sutton, Alice Gorgas, George Wiltshire and Edward Thompson. The week's presentation "In the Underworld," the name of which denotes an interesting true to life story of super criminals, full of strife and peril. This correctly defines their offering, which gives them every avenue to prove their talents. However, this particular arrangement is a poor specimen of the art, because many times the artists find themselves in moments of stage despair. Unpleasant gaps oftimes loave them bare for want of instant connections that should carry the thought more smoothly. The audience could hardly complain as their remarkable ability
50 Colored And Wh The Year's Bigge LAFAY Seventh Avenue at 132nd
easily overshadows the discrepancies.
A patron of Harlem playhouses could hardly find higher expressions of compliment to bestow upon a dancing chorus than could be applied to the Alhambra girls. Very seldom a producer finds it possible to utilize more real team work, and artistic stage presence than could be gleaned from these clever dancers. With such wonderful support the principals put over their deliveries with ease. Amanda Randolph, a seasoned favorite, Irene Dennis and Viola McCoy deserve no less praise. Sandy Burns, Montrose Brooks and Al Watts furnish their correct amount of comedy with steady laughs.

AT THE LINCOLN is "Within the Law", a stirring, heart throbbing vehicle, waging a decisive battle of crime versus justice, full of thrills, sensational episodes true to life, is most artistically presented by the Ida Anderson Players. Miss Anderson interprets her emotions and their intricacies with remarkable tact and valor. Charles Olden displays rigid gut and gritt with ease. Lawrence Chenault acts well and is rightly cast. Billy Andrews executes his role as if it were especially written for his cunning. Hilda Offley produces the laughs of the piece with pretty wit. Inez Clough is a bit matronly for her part as modern office stenographer; but her work is clever. Alfred Chester, Ricardo Landez and Bebe Townsend seem well acclimated and are due creditable mention. The musical comedy presentation "All Set" was pleasingly entertaining and the girly-girly chorus was well picked. Rosa Henderson and John Mason are liked.

Oil the Bob
wit the style of the bob being

Otte muy not have noticed, but
there {6 w tendency of increasing
dandrutt when the hair 1s bobbed.
Uniess properly taken care cf the
hair hia a deaudened, dry, under-
nourished appeurance.
Bobbed hair furnishes a regular
cateh-basin for dirt and dust. The
drying power of the free circulat-
ing wit rapidly evaporates the nat-
url ofl from the scalp, and there-
fure a olf should be frequently
applied. ‘the dried natural oil
produces « fine powder substance
commonly known as dandruff.
When hair was worn long, pinned
and tucked in with combs and hair
pins {t protected the hair from the
wind und kept the scalp ofly.
Many persons belleve that be-
cause they have thelr halr bobbed
that the scalp needs no attention,
while in fact it needs more. To
keep the halr live and pretty a
good hair off should be massaged
into the scalp dally, It gives the
hair Justre and imparts o silky
sheen and glossy appearance,

Creepy situations, weird char-
acters and spooky angies, chilling
the hearts of everyone with fearful
yet pleasunt reactions; they who

selves in the unveiling of this great
mystory story, Gooseflesh brought

Fashion Flashes
By MISS FLORENOD MAYLIN
(Formerly associated with afme,
Roy—Paris)
A“ women «adore gorgeous
jewelry and precious stones
and men admire them (the ladies),
the gold and the stones!” In re-
gards to ornament as all elsc in
life “proper use fs permitted, abuse
is prohibited.” Ornaments of
whatever description should be
kept in thelr proper place, that is
ty enhance a color note, soften an
effect, give ight or brilliance, pro-
duce richness or finally harmonize
the important lines and points of
a costume. Jewelry should mould
into the setting of a gown and not
be so glaring and conspicious that
it shrieks—“Look at me!” Very
often one szes an otherwise attrac:
tive outfit spoilt hecause the wear-
er insists on sporting the latest
fad in ornaments whether it suits
her costume or her type.
A good example of this paint is
the chocker beads. They would
not have been so popular or worn
for so many seasons tf they were
not generally becoming to most
women. However, they are not
for the chubby girl with a
short neck nor for the older, heavi-
er woman with several ching and
necks. I have seen young women
in day-time, sport dresses wear
one or two necklaces of dainty,
open-work or filigree design, even
with colored stones. The whole
effect of trim, smart, sportiness
was ruined and they looked like
dowdy, country bumpkins, “all
dressed up and no place to go.”
They should have worn a metul,
gold or silver plain beaded or link-
ed chain or else a chocker neck-
Jace harmonizing in tone or color
with their dress. If their whole
outfit and ensemble was in a neu-
trul tan, gray or black, then they
could have worn almost any bright
color of chocker beads to give the
right touch to their outfit. But,
remembering that there would be
no other bright convicting color.
“Two colors, three tones tor good
taste” is the rule never to be for-
gotten. Delicate, fancy necklaces
are dressy and can only be worn
properly for evening with light
dresses.
Another important rule is: Don't
laden yourself down like a circus
poney with all kinds of jewelry
even of the best kind. Any woman
who will wear three or four rings
on one finger or one ring on two
or three fingers of each hand
shows very poor taste, She is try-
ing to attract attention through
flashiness rather than through
smartness, chic and general pool
style.

This group has begun rehoarsing its first play "Black Alkall" by Goo. S. Grant, one of the founders of the Ebony and Topaz Playors. Wobb King of musical comedy fame is production manager.
The Women's International League celebrated its first anniversary last Monday at the International House of the Y. W. C. A. A delicious international dinner of lettuce salad with Russian dressing; Zaytoun (olivos, Porsian); Labash (Armenian broad); Pilav (Turkish rice); Calabacitas (Spanish vegetable dish); Chochil Banir (Armenian choose) Shorbot; Paklava (Grek pastry); and Tshay (Rusian tea) was served. Artists of many nations contributed to the program. Miss Ethelwyn Mills is president of the Los Angeles league and three of our own group, Dr. Vada J. Somerville, Miss Gertrude Chrisman and Mrs. Fay Jackson-Robinson, are members of the local board.
One of the outstanding business and social events of the year was the opening of the La Vada apartments, 249 E. Vernon Avenue. The apartments are owned by Dr. and Mrs. J. A. Somerville, both dentists and outstanding citizens of Los Angeles. The formal opening was Easter Sunday from 3 until 10 p.m. and thousands of people passed through and inspected Los Angeles' finest and most up-to-date apartment house. The hall and private apartment of the Somerville were filled with floral offerings from the leading business firms of the city. A bevy of attractively gowned ladies assisted the owners in showing the building, including: Mrs. Bertha Williams, Mrs. Cynthia Mitchell, Mrs. Clara Franklin, Miss Mary Hogan, Miss Harriet Jones, Miss Emma Lue Sayers, Mrs. Rebecca Hill, Mrs. Gladys O. Spikes, Mrs. K. Reeves and many others.
The La Vada contains 27 apartments. There are a number of bachelor apartments, singles and doubles. The basement is unusually interesting, for it contains a

The National Association of Negro College Women held its annual conference in Atlantic City on Friday and Saturday. The sessions were held in the New Jersey Avenue school. The delegates, coming from various centers throughout the country, were the luncheon guests of the Board of Education on Friday.
This association was organized for the improvement of education of women throughout the United States. Reports of activity were made by Miss Juanita Howard, for the Washington, D. C., branch; Miss Lewis for the Petersburg, Va., branch; by Miss Broadnax for the Delaware branch, and by Dr. Virginia Alexander for the Philadelphia branch.
The most notable results of the conference was the report of the committee on standards, which has made a careful survey of a large number of colleges. It made definite recommendations for improvements in both educational and cultural opportunities and recommended the calling of a conference of the deans of women and presidents of all negro colleges and universities.
The Saturday afternoon session was most significant. Mrs. Eunice Hunter Carter presided and Miss Frances Gregory, of the Bordentown State Industrial school, read a paper on the Liberal Arts college. The trend of opinion was that the movement toward specialization and away from liberal courses was a real change in our colleges. Prof. Montgomery Gregory, principal of the New Jersey avenue school, made a forceful opening address in which he stressed the need of greater opportunity for individual expression in our colleges and the danger of too many young women entering the profession of teaching.
"There are many other profitable fields of opportunity that this association may bring to the attention of the young Negro women of America."
New officers elected for the year were: Lucy D. Slowe, president; dean of women, Howard university, Washington, D. C., president; Anna T. Brodnax, Wilmington, Del., vice-president; Juanita P. Howard, Washington, D. C., secretary-treasurer; Carrie E. S. Lee, Washington, D. C., corresponding secretary.

On Tuesday evening, April 17th, Atlantic City's political and social elite were entertained by the Enoch L. Johnson Reserve Corps of Ladies at the beautiful home of their Lieutenant, Mme.

Horace Scott, the "lovable brother of our winsome Lenore Scott, graced the shore with his August presence. He was seen here, there and everywhere, living up to his reputation—that of being a crush among all crushers. He left Monday for New York City to witness the Omega-Alpha game, as did also Monroe Dowling. Horace is quite the attraction in any group. Hurry and make a return trip.

Dr. Binga Dismond from Uptown New York made Atlantic City hum with his Marmon straight 8. He arrived as all true night hawks do, at midnight (1:30) with Alphonse Trible, also of New York. One can hardly believe that one individual could have caused so much commotion upon arriving. He immediately turned night into day. He parked his plane at 328 N. Ind. av.
* * *
Selby Minor came all the way from Cleveland, Ohio, to see our beautiful and lovely Norvell Major. Everyone was glad to have him and more than sorry to see him leave. Hope he'll come again soon and finish what he left undone during his short but thrilling stay. He was the house guest of Dr. J. Hurlong Scott, who is a very gracious host.
* * *
Fannie Howard of Bordentown was again with us and the house guest of Lenore Scott. She is always a pleasant asset to the shore. Both Fannie and Lenore stole away in the wee hours of Easter morning to Bordentown, where they enjoyed themselves as house guests of Mrs. Dorothy Jones.
We were very glad to have with us over the Easter vacation G. Victor Cools of New York City.
Mrs. Emma Layton and Mrs. Nora Johnson of New York City were with us at Easter, and at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Dowling of 328 N. Indiana av.

Dr. and Mrs. W. E. Braswell had as their house guests Mrs. Agatha J. Lawson of Phil., Pa., Mrs. Stella Johnstone of New York City, and Mrs. Mildred Moseley, also of New York City.
* * *
On Easter Sunday we all went over to the beautiful intriguing welcome home of the Braswell's where we were entertained as royally as usual. The table was replete with everything imaginable, everything to the king's taste. We danced and regretted when the time arrived to leave. The Braswell's know just how to do things and it is a rare treat to be among them. All of "Who was Who in Atlantic City" were there, the others remained sadly at home.
THE INTERSTATE TATTLER
After we left the Braswell home the bunch retreated over to Sarah Spencer Washington's to continue our hambles. We remained until about three Monday morning, having the time of our lives. Again John Hester and Joe Johnson were at their best. Sarah's home at Easter is one long to be remembered.
---
By the way, Monroe Dowling certainly had the time of his young life. Each day for him had 48 hours, and how! And how we did all miss Kick Jackson. He was with us in thoughts if not in flesh. His "one thought" here seemed so lonesome and dissatisfied. She would!
---
Mrs. Nan Smith had as her Easter guests Mrs. Lella Warrick of Philadelphia and Mrs. Oscar Johnson and Miss Dorothy Johnson of Petersburg, Va. They were highly entertained by the friends of their charming hostess. Dr. and Mrs. Banton of Wilmington, Del., motored to Atlantic City for Easter. They enjoyed their stay with their daughter, Alice.
