STAR OF "EMPEROR JONES"
SIGNS CONTRACT WITH
THE EUREKA FILM CO.
WHICH CALLS FOR
All Colored Cast to be Used to Make Comedies and Dramas
New York, April 21.—Charles Gilpin, star of the "Emperor Jones" the much discussed Provincetown drama being presented at the Princess theatre, will become a moving picture star.
Mr. Gilpin who won his reputation as being one of the ten most brilliant actors on the local stage today received many offers from managers and film producers due to the publicity given his appearance as a guest of honor at a dinner by the Drama League.
According to J. A. Fitzgerald (white), the Eureka Film company, also white, of which he is director, has an option on the services of Mr. Gilpin which calls for $250 a day while he is engaged in actual work on the pictures.
The company expects to make six-reel dramas and a series of two-reel comedies. An all colored cast will be engaged to work around Mr. Gilpin as the leading man.
Whether this offer of the Eureka Film Company means a retirement of Mr. Gilpin from the real stage and his concentration upon the movie field, Mr. Gilpin has not yet made public.
MISS EVA B. DYKES
CANDIDATE FOR THE
DEGREE OF PH. D
Cambridge, Mass., April 27.—Miss Eva B. Dykes, of Washington, recently passed her examination for the degree, Doctor of Philosophy in English at Radcliffe college, Cambridge, Mass. Miss Dykes is the first colored woman to be recommended for such a degree. She received her elementary training in the public schools of Washington, D. C., and is a graduate of the Dunbar High school. In 1917 Miss Dykes received her A. B. from Radcliffe with honors in English, "magna cum laude;" and in 1918 received a Master's degree.
Miss Dykes has not only the honor of being the first colored woman candidate for the degree of Ph. D., but she also is the only member of the colored race to have that degree in English.

ASKS WITHDRAWAL
OF U. S. TROOPS FROM
SANTO DOMINGO
(By The Associated Negro Press.)
Madrid, April 21.—A protest against the occupation of Santo Domingo by United States troops is contained in a message sent to President Harding by a group of prominent Spaniards, including former Premier Count Romanones, Francisco Cambon, former minister of public works; Prof. Miguel Unamuno of Salamanca university and others. The message says:
"We protest against the occupation of Santo Domingo and the suppression of rights and liberties there, and we invoke in favor of the Dominican republic the ideal of the United States, whose name would gain a new title of respect and admiration of humanity by the triumph of those ideals."
Negroes Open National Bank
(By The Associated Negro Press.)
Boley, Okla., May 5. The First National bank of Boley was opened to the public on the 15th of April. This institution will go down in history as the first national bank organized and operated in the United States. Its charter was procured from the treasury by Attorney Elisha Scott of Topeka, Kans.
NEGRO WANTS
SCENERY ALL WHITE
AT HIS HANGING
Lake Charles, La., April 29.—Joseph Barry, a Negro, who is to be hanged on May 6 for murder, has requested that the scaffold for his execution be painted snow white in keeping with the white, suit, shoes, tie and socks he is to wear. He also asked that the executioner and attending deputies be clothed in white.
Japanese Have No Bede
The Japanese do not sleep on European beds, but on many thick, soft puffs one on top of each other upon the floor. For bed covering they use more of the same kind of puffs. It is said that the Japanese emperor has 20 such puffs which cover him inside in the shape of a crown and has a velvet collar. Probably he creeps inside of this, if he feels cold in the night.

WASHINGTON COLORED
BASEBALL ASSOCIATION
MAKES PRESENTATION
Attends Opening Game Pitching
First Ball.
(By The Associated Negro Press.)
Washington, April 19.—President Harding has been presented with a solid gold pass for the games of the Washington Colored Baseball association that will be played in the American league park during the season.
The presentation was made by a delegation from the club and citizens. The presentation speech was made by Judge Robert H. Terrell, of the district municipal court, who stated that it was the desire of the citizens and the players that the president throw the first ball at the opening game, even if he could remain but a few minutes, in order to give encouragement to the sport. President Harding stated that it was unnecessary for anyone to try to tell him of the ability of the colored boys to play ball, as for years some of the best games he has ever seen were during the winter season by colored teams in Florida. The very day the pass was presented, the president attended the opening of the American league games between Washington and Boston. He pitched the first ball and remained throughout the game.
John R. Williams is president and Edgar Buckner, secretary of the association. The newspaper representatives in the delegation that called upon the president were J. Finley Wilson, of the Washington Eagle, V. L. Williams, of the Negro World, New York, and Daniel Nahum Brascher of the Associated Negro Press.

The American apple owes much to the case of the Indian farmer, for the Indian was almost nomadic. It was not unusual 160 years ago for Indian orchards to have 1,500 trees, which will had been duly pruned and cult- rated by the people we are prone to as nomadic savages. The peach and quince were also cultivated by them in later years. To the world the Indian introduced such fruits as the peramum, the pawpaw, the pineapple and the Virginia strawberry.

Honors Memory of Booker Washinton
Waterbury, Conn., May 5.—A big memorial meeting, in memory of the late Booker T. Washington, was held in the Mt. Olive A. M. E. church on the night of the Tenth of April. Frank P. Chisolm, field secretary of Tuskegee institute was the principal speaker. "Simplicity was the keynote of Booker T. Washington's life," declared Mr. Chisolm in the course of his address. "In spite of his unlimited opportunity to amass great wealth and to make a display of it, he lived a simple life and retained the spirit of humility."
Abdications of History.
Ever since dynasties have existed there are records of kings having abdicated from one cause and another. Far back in the misty past one monarch gave up his throne because he was "wearied with dominion;" another retired out of preference for the freedom of private life; a third laid down his crown because his schemes failed; still another abdicated in a fit of melancholy; and there are two instances in which kings left their thrones because they were unable to cope with national crises.
Exaggerated.
When we reflect upon the white of an egg that has been sitting around in the refrigerator, apparently waiting to be used up, in almost every place we can remember, we think that all this talk about the American housewife's reckless extravagance is somewhat exaggerated after all—Columbus (Ohio) State Journal.
Baptists of Evanston Erect $100,000 Church Services to Be Conducted The New Edifice
(By The Associated Negro Press.)
Evanston, Ill., May 5.—The Baptists of Evanston irrespective of color, as well as the entire citizenship, are looking forward to the second Sunday in May as one unique in the history of the North Shore. Mr. Zion Baptist Church, organized over twenty years ago is today looking forward with intense interest to the 8th day of May when they are to enter their new church building, erected at a total cost of $100,000. It is possibly one of the best buildings ever constructed by our race group in the great northwest. Dr. Jones came to Evanston three years ago and found the membership eighty-five. It numbers today, eight hundred. The church proper is nearing completion and on May 8th when they enter the new structure, it will be completely furnished from top to bottom, with a new pipe organ chimes that could not be purchased today for less than $10,000 and other beautiful furnishings.
The church is institutional in its work and already Mrs. J. D. Ross, known throughout the United States for her splendid ability, has been secured to teach domestic science and the needle work and art department will be under the management of Mrs. Fannie L. Marion. The congregation is, at present, preparing to entertain the Baptists of Illinois in their annual state meeting and every arrangement for their comfort has been perfected for the second Sunday in May. The sermon will be preached by Dr. R. H. Boyd. His honor Mayor Pearson will be present as well as many of the other distinguished citizens of Evanston.

Mrs. Fred A. Britten Reaches Paris
Bears Protest Against Black Troop
(By The Associated Negro Press.)
Paris, France, May 5—Mrs. Fred A. Britten, bearing the protest of the Chicago congress against the retention of black troops in German occupied territory, evidently an organization of Chicago Germans, which she intends to deliver to Marshal Foch, arrived here today.
Marshal Foch was too busy with the May 1 occupation plans, in conference with General Weygand, to receive the correspondent.
"It seems that General Allen (commander of the American forces of occupation) has fully replied to Mrs. Britten's protest," his aid said. "His report is quite unequivocal. There are no black troops in the occupied zone at the present time, having been removed long since."
CHARGED WITH INSTIGATING RACE RIOT
Milwankee, Wis., April 29.—A warrant for the arrest of Edward Thomas, head of the National Association for the Advancement of the Negro, was issued today charging exhibition of pictures intended to stimulate race riots. A policeman attracted by a crowd of Negroes found two pictures, one depicting a lynching of five Negroes and the other a Negro girl being burned. The warrant followed.

Atlanta, Ga., April 27—(Special)—Under the title "The Negro in Georgia," Gov. High M. Dorsey has issued in booklet form evidence of 136 instances of "Negroes lynched, Negroes held in peonage, Negroes driven out by organized lawlessness, and Negroes subjected to individual acts of crucify" in various counties of the state within the last two years.
"In some counties," the governor said," the Negro is being driven out as if he were a wild beast; in others he is being held a slave. No effort has been made to collect the cases cited. If such an effort were made, I believe the numbe could be multiplied. In only two of the 135 cases cited is the 'usual crime' against white women involved."
Recalls Leopold and Congo.
Then the governor added: "If conditions indicated by these charges should continue, both God and man would justly condemn Georgia more severely than God and man have condemn Belgium and Leopold for the Congo atrocities. But worse than that condemnation would be the continued toleration of such cruelties in Georgia."
Lychning, of which there have been 418 in Georgia since 1885 (a larger number than in any other state), form the smallest group of the charges of Governor Dorsey. He laid more stress on instances of peonage among which was listed the Williams case recently brought to a climax.
Still more stress is laid upon the driving away of Negroes, instances of which embrace a number wherein the prosperity and industry of the victims seem to have been the occasion of offense.
Would Clean Own House.
"The investigation and suggestion of a remedy should come from Georgians, and not from outsiders. For these reasons, I suggest the following remedies:
"1—Publicity, or the careful gathering and investigation by Georgians, and not by outsiders, of facts as to our treatment of the Negro, and the publication of these facts to the people of Georgia.
"2—An organized campaign by the churches to place in every section of Georgia a sufficient number of Sunday schools and churches where in their separate places of worship the young and the old of both races will learn from suitable teachers the gospel of justice, mercy, and mutual forbearance for all.
Wants Ample Education. "3—Compulsory education for both races.
"4—The organization of state committees on race relations; one committee composed of leading white citizens, another of leaders among the Negroes, and local committees made up in the same manner in each county of the state, the committees to confer together when necessary concerning matters vital to the welfare of both races."
A state constabulary, a financial penalty on any county in which lynching may occur, and similar commissions to investigate conditions are recommended as remedies for the lynching evil.

Nine White Men
(By The Associated Negro Press.)
Camilla, Ga., May 5—What is declared to be the first indictment under the state mob violence act was returned here by the county grand jury against nine men in connection with the lynching last January of Jim Roland, colored.
The men will be tried next week. They are charged with mob violence and murder. All of the indicted men, except two, have been arrested and released on $10,000 bond.
Roland had shot and seriously injured Jason Harrell, white, of Grady county, when the latter tried to make him dance together with a number of other Negroes. Roland and Harrell drew their guns and fired, Harrell falling, badly wounded, Roland was then lynched by a mob.
Trotter SpeakIn Chicago
RETURNS TO IOWA TO
FIGHT CIVIL RIGHTS
CASE AT OSKALOOSA
Reviews Western Trip.
(By The Associated Negro Press.)
Chicago, April 19.—William Monroe Trotter, editor of the Boston Guardian and secretary of the National Equal Rights League, reached Chicago on Friday from his speaking tour to the Pacific coast. He was in good fighting trim, with addresses to make at two Chicago churches before he went back into Iowa to fill engagements and pursue a civil rights case at Oksaloosa where he and his manager were refused a meal. Mr. Trotter said that as for the states of Iowa, Kansas, Arizona, California, Oregon, Washington, Montana, Utah, Wyoming, Colorado and Nebraska, he had found the colored people striving and improving their condition in education, business, the professions, in property and homes. They were demonstrating ever increasing capacity as worthy citizens. On the other hand, except perhaps in Nebraska, they were very generally without available civil rights. Color discrimination seemed on the increase. Whereas 20 years ago in all these states, except perhaps Kansas, there was little if any discrimination according to the testimony of old residents, now there was a great deal of deprivation of rights.

THE GLORY OF GOOD HEALTH.
If you have health, you probably will be happy and if you have health and happiness you will have all the wealth you need if not all you want.
Health is the most natural thing in the world. It is natural to be healthy because we are a part of nature. Nature is trying to help us, and needs us in her business. Nature needs man so he will be useful to other men and unless he is healthy and happy he can be of little service to himself or to any one else. The life of life are for service, and the penalties of life are the result of selfishness. Human service is the highest term of self-interest for the person who serves. We perceive our sanity only as we forget ourselves than when we are alone. We employ on one's self and to forget our relationship to society, is to summon misery, and misery means disease.
Unhappiness is irritant. It affects the heartbeats of the brain and then thanquails and the person is ripe for a hundred diseases and a thousand complications.
We are not Christian Scientists, but it is a fact that the best remedy for many diseases, or rather presumed disease is to be a patient. Our bodies are automatic and thinking about your troubles do not help us. Rather it hinders, since the process of thinking, especially anxious thinking, robs you of comfort, and causes us to cease functioning as it should. The blood is thus transferred to the head and we get headaches and other troubles.
The best thing to do is if we would be happy and others happy is to live a friendly and we will consequently be happy and make others happy.

Y., writes: "I can honestly say that Chamblain's Liniment lured me of Jumbaum years ago last fall. I was in bed and I was in my back in bed and could not turn to the left or right. I had a bottle of Chamblain's Liniment in the house and this was applied to my back. It promptly drove away the pans and aches."—

THE WINIFRED ROBB WAY OF DOING THINGS.
W. E. Robb, world war veteran, incomparable Sheriff of Polk County, Iowa, and who does things in a way that not only is an outstanding feature in the criminal world but, also can be applied to conditions, religiously, racially, politically, and nationally.
Robb in his crusade to rid Des Moines and Polk county of bootleggers, prostitutes and criminals who heretofore have almost made this community an indecent place in which to live has unearned through his honesty and relentless efforts things that stagger our imagination. Robb will be the first to give us the POLICE and DETECTIVE FORCE—the follows who promised with their hands on the Bible to do all in their power to make this community what it should be. If someone had told us that they had hands in bank robberies and hold-ups we would have said it could not be true, yet they were found to be MASTER MINDS—"THE BELL COWS" in many instances.
Robb is just the kind of thing that is needed in every institution that is supported by the police, the public's good. It does not matter what long he hones to or whether he is doing this for fame, money or position so long as he does the "right thing" that is the thing we want.
We need men all over this country in every branch of the government who are willing to HIT when HITTING is needed and let the chips fall where they will. It is those kind of men that save a country. Lincoln saved the Union because he was that type. The Declaration of Independence was brought about because men wanted right and were willing to defy even the King in their own defense. What a great thing it would be to defend the right that had spirit like the war that around the altars, in the pews priest like men and women who are BOTTEN to the core. Often the emblemment action that he gets out of those people until if he knows that they are "cohots of hell" he does not chastise them. Why devote so much time to talking about "giving to the Lord." It has almost taken "Christ" to坦ahity. If they believe that God is all they claim and it has all those things they claim for his service, then it let make no difference to him, to his deans, stewards, stewardess or deaconess or wherever it may be. "Throw the can and let it fit whosoever's head it may."
The condition of Des Moines can be applied to the Negro race as well as to any other great issue of the day. Some of the styled best men in our race are the dirtiest, politically, socially, religiously and in every other image that we or unimaginable manner, yet, too few of us know about the damnable work we do. Others are dutiful, like Sheriff Robb, the machine we know communities where eight years ago the preacher, teacher, or any man who claimed to stand for something could demand the respect of the people. In those very places today they are looked upon as "nothing. The younger people have decided in their minds in many of these communities all men are crooks and all crooks are men and "being first class." If we take a square look at this Negro problem, education, I admit it plays an important part but, CHRISTIANITY not hypothetically is what our
Let every man that loves liberty, happiness and other things worthwhile remember that they are bought through "knowing what is right and DOING that thing." Robb's mode of procedure will revolutionize the city of Des Moines and is a mighty good example to be applied to other domestic and national conditions.

Famous Georgia minstrels will make a very attractive street parade introduce several novelties. The wardrobe is elaborate, and the music is the sort that starts the blood coursing quickly through your veins, and your feet start running. The music feels exhilarated and finally will make up your mind to go and buy your tickets so as to get the choice seats, and you will be on hand early when the doors open to hear the free band concert in front of the theater. We all know how to hear these minstrels band music hear these trombones slur that "jazzy" music. There is always satisfaction and pleasure when you go to see the famous Georgia minstrels, the confidence that goes with knowing the years' of experience and the positive guarantee of satisfaction behind the performance.

Biliusness and Constipation
"Four years I was troubled with bili-
ness and constipation, which made
life miserable for me. My appetite
failed me. I lost my usual force and
vitality. Pepin preparations and cau-
ter only allow me to do what I do
do not know where I should have been
today had I not tried Chamberlain's
Tablets. The tablets relieve the ill
feling at once, strengthen the digestive
functions, purify the stomach, liver and
intestines, and soothe the itch in
its work naturally."—Mrs. Rosa Potts,

What man has done woman can undo.
Steam is the perspiration from hot water.
A forced kindness deserves no thanks.
High water never raises the price of milk.
A kiss is an explosion of condensed emotion.
If you are in a hurry avoid the train of thought.
Fancy penmanship never made a man wealthy.
If you go into a labyrinth take a clew with you.
Next to the kindly act is the appreciation thereof.
Some men take to religion as a political afterthought.
Girls like compliments—also ice cream and oysters.
Whatsoever a man reaps some man must have planted.
The best antidote for sorrow is steady employment.
When money talks the cream of the conversation is rich.
It is a long lane that has no turning.—Dutch Proverb.
It is sometimes easier to meet a bill than it is to dodge it.
Don't growl at what you can't help or what you can help.
The man who is the first to argue is usually the last to act.
A warning paragraph often saves a chapter of explanation.
A little leaven leaventh the whole lump.—New Testament.
The business of a dog dealer is apt to be a howling success.

Do you know that you should use only the best soap in washing your face, hands, neck and arms? Beauty specialists everywhere will tell you that only the purest soap should be used to cleanse the skin. Black and White Soap is as pure as soap can be made. It contains only the best of oils and other soap making ingredients, all of which are known to beauty doctors.
Black and White Soap should always be used in washing the skin before and after massaging with Black and White Ointment. That's why the manufacturers insist that both should be used together.
Black and White Soap is also best for shampoo. While it thoroughly cleans the hair and scalp, yet the hair does not become harsh, dry and brittle.
