A GREAT EVANGELIST.
One of the greatest revivalists that Kansas City has ever had the pleasure to hear is Miss Mary G. Evans, the cultured, talented and eloquent young woman who is conducting a most successful revival at historic Allen Chapel. Crowds such as Allen has not witnessed in years are attending her nightly meetings and she has aroused staid old Allen to a high pitch of religious fervor. Miss Evans has a smile that is not only radiant but irresistible and as a singer she is in a class to herself. Those who have not heard her should avail themselves of the opportunity of hearing this most wonderful and accomplished young woman.

THE EVERLASTING STAIN.
A dying and desperate political party clutches at the straw of race hatred as its last gasping hope. Bourt bon democracy is true to its ruling passion strong in death. The crafty politican psychologized the public, and felt assured that the cry of Negro blood would throw it into a spasm of delirium. The infamy of this taint was deemed to be more detestable than the murderous brand upon the forehead of Cain. It was thought to outweigh in public estimation the entire catalog of intellectual, moral and political virtues. To charge an American with theft, arson or murder would be a mild accusation as compared to this. The time was set with dramatic cleverness. The iron must be struck while it is hot. There must be no margin of time to refute the charge or to reconcile public sentiment. The cry of Wolf! Wolf! on first alarm, stamped the crowd, even if there is no wolf. But the bungling dastard did not know his game. Righteous strategy triumphed over dastardly cunning. With amazing celerity of action the charge was refuted as soon as made. The dastardly deed redounds to the shame of the doer. Never before, and let us hope, never again will any political party sink to such a low level of infamy. Blessed are ye when men revile you, and say all manner of evil against you falsely. Wit rhrighteous indignation against the methods of the character assassin, the American people with all but one voice sweeps Harding into the White House, assured that his purity of blood is as unblemished as his spotlessness of character.
The country is safe, the Republican party is victorious, and the honor of the white race is secure.
But what of the Negro. Is he supposed to be endowed with ordinary human pride and sensibilities? To him the defense is, if anything, more insulting than the attack. Why should it be considered more heinous than any crime to possess a trace of Negro blood? I doubt whether any race since human civilization began has ever been placed under such a ban of opprobrium. It is the boast of statesmen and men of reknown that they carry in their veins a blend of Indian blood. Btu one drop that flows from African veins vitilizes ten times its own volume of any other strain. Against this assumption the Negro rebels with all the ardor and indignation which his nature is capable. Can the Negro be expected to share in the derogation of his own blood? Is his wholly guiltless of the stain for which he is stigmatized. Pigmentation affects the color of the body, but not the quality of the soul. Were Dumas and Douglas and Dunbar accursed of God and unworthy of honor and esteem because of their sable hue? Shall we be expected to give higher meed of glory to Plato and Shakespeare and Jesus because their skin was White? Perish the thought! Such self-abasement would compromise the Negro's self-respect and hypothecate all hope. The Ten Commandments assure us that the Father of All Races and Breeds of Man visits the sins of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generations of them that hate, but shows mercy unto thousands of them that love. The Constitution of the United States forbids the attaint of blood, so that the political and legal sins of the fathers may not be visited upon the children. Must the Negro of all men stand dosed to eternal infamy from the foundation of the world to the end of time.
There can be no satisfactory solution of the race problem while this notion prevails. In the face of its inexorable exactions our little palliatives and programs are as ineffectual as the application of emollients to the hopeless consumptive. From an inherent sense of self-respect and in vindication of the essential claims of humanity, the Negro must insist that his blood is as good as any which courses through human veins.

The Persian Chorus of beautiful young folks from Western University
At the Auditorium Theatre Friday night was witnessed by a large audience a production by local talent that was next to Grand Opera. In fact, the renditions of Mrs. Edmonia Brown, as "Queen Esther" and Prof. T. H. Reynolds as "Mordecia" could easily be classed with grand opera. Mrs. Brown has been singing in Kansas City for years but never has she been heard, making a tremendous hit with dramatic situations perfect, as she was on Friday evening. She made an ideal Queen, perfect self control, beautiful and richly robed. James Anderson was King was ideal. He looked his part and played it only as James Anderson can. His deep, rich commanding voice was that of a King, made more effective by his dramatic inflections. Prof. T. H. Reynolds was a decided hit and majestic in his rendition of Mordecia. His sweet voice soaring in pathos, pleading for his people, almost compelled that large audience to their feet. He

Mrs. Emma Payne as "Zeresh" has never appeared to a greater advantage. Her climaxes were forceful and effective, her voice rich and beautiful, her dramatic work impressive and her costuming gorgeous. With A. C. Rollins, as Haman, who was a favorite, with an exceptional baritone voice under perfect control, a thrilling climax was scored in their "Farewell." Rollins both in voice and dramatic art was a favorite.
The Perslan Chorus of beautiful young folks from Western University with Prof. R. G. Jackson in charge, held their own. Their costumes were pretty and becoming, they sang with force and power, carrying out every dramatic situation with ease. The Jewish Chorus was richly garbed and was made up of the best singers of the two Kansas Cities in charge of Major N. Clark Smith, rendered the most effective dramatic musical treat that has ever witnessed in Kansas City. Mrs. Lelia Allen as "Prophetess") in this chorus was at her best and effectively portrayed her part; her costuming was beautiful, and her dramatic work pleasing.
H. S. Williams as "High Priest" carried his audience with his rich deep bass voice. His part was made the more impressive by his costume and dramatic situations. Mrs. Cora Evans, Mordecai's sister, was one of Kansas City, Kansas, leading soloists and held her own in the Jewish chorus. Her voice was clear and effective, made more so by her dramatic art and beautiful costume. Also
Miss Jessie Wallace, the Persian Maid, was another of Kansas City's good singers. She rendered her part very pleasing; her dramatic situations and costuming were ideal. Mrs. Katherine Jones in her solo comforting the Jews was impressive and made a great hit. Her costume and dramatic work were very effective. The Maids of Honor, the Misses Johnson, Richardson, Winn and Cowden and the pages, Master Felix Payne, Jr., and George Love, Jr., all played well their parts. There were about seventy-five persons on the stage and not a hitch. The men were great, Ben Martin as Harbona, Weaver as Scribe, Samuel Stewart as beggar, Ulysses Surratt and Fields as guards, all played well their respective parts.
Prof. Clyde Leroy Glass, one of the greatest pianists of the race, masterly supported both soloist and chorus in a way that it seemed impossible for them to fall. All of Kansas City in one big voice is praising Mrs. Osborne and her assistants and congratulating the Degree Team, O. E. S. for the honor of having given to the public through Mrs. Osborne the best entertainment yet witnessed by local talent at the Auditorium Theatre.

A BEAUTIFUL WEDDING
The marriage of Miss Anna Smith, one of Kansas City's most charming girls, daughter of Major and Mrs. N. Clark Smith, to Mr. Clyde Williams of Kansas, the society event of the year.
Most Prominent People of the Two Kansas Citys and the West Attend in large Numbers
Episcopal Ceremony used.
The most beautiful wedding witness in Kansas City for years was the marriage of Miss Annra Smith, teacher in our public schools and one of the most popular young women in our city to Mr. Clyde Williams, a railway mail clerk of Kansas City, Kansas, formerly of Colorado, and a very excellent young man. The wedding ceremony was performed at the residence of the bride's parents, Major and Mrs. N. Clark Smith, 2313 Tracy Avenue, and was witnessed by the most representative assembly of members of our racial group that has ever attended a like ceremony in this city. The house was beautifully decorated with Sililax, magnolia and cut flowers and a beautiful improvised altar with burning tapers had been erected in the spacious parlor and on each side of the space where the bridal couple stood were beautiful cathedral lights. The full Episcopal ring service was used by the Rev. Father Harry Rahmung, rector of St. Augustine's Protestant Episcopal Church who performed the ceremony, which was very impressive.
Preceding the ceremony which began promptly at 7:00 p. m., Mrs. Edmonia Hubbel Brown Kansas City's matchless soprano sang in faultless style, "Beloved It Is Morn," by Alyward, at the conclusion of which Prof Clyde Leroy Glass, eminent pianist broke in the well known strains of Mendelsohn's wedding march and all eyes strained to witness the approach of the bridal party.
First came the groom accompanied by the best man, his brother, Mr. Adolph Williams of Muskogee, Okla., both faultlessly attired. Then came the little flower girl, Geraldine Young who wore pink with a crepe metron hat to match and carried a basket of beautiful flowers. Next came the attendants, Mr. L. C. Smith and Mr. Horace Gritton, two of Kansas City's手 most young men. Then came the matron of honor, Mrs. H. Abbott of Tulsa, Okla., formerly Miss Marjorie Idlelet of this City who wore a white satin with pink muff, a corsage of pink roses and hat to match. Then came the maid of honor, Miss Frances Kealing, daughter of the late Prof. Kealing of Western University, who wore an apricot satin with applied taffeta roses and an apricot muff with hat to match, corsage of pink roses. Then came the bride's maids, Miss Edna Sweich of Wichita, Kansas, who wore orchid satin with muff to match, corsage of violets and hat to match. then came the bride, beautiful, demure, but radiant upon the arm of her distinguished father and attired in a costume that won the admiration of the entire assemblage. She wore kitten's ear satin with trimming of genuine pearls and Spanish shadow lace with silk tulle lace, bonnet shaped with wreath of lilies of the valley. At the altar they presented the most beautiful picture imaginable. To the left of the bride stood her devoted grandmother and her husband, Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd, handsomely attired, while Mrs. Smith who was giving away her child was so overcome with emotion that she could only witness the ceremony from the stairway.
After the ceremony read by Father Rahming the young couple received the congratulations of the hundreds present and departed on a late train for St. Louis, Mo., where they will spend their honeymoon and will be at home to friends at a date later to be announced. Many of the most beautiful and costly presents were received a list of which we were unable to obtain on account of the short time of going to press, but few bridal couples have received more numerous or costlier presents than they.
The Sun extends its sincerest congratulations and wishes the charming young couple a long and happy life. Among the out of town people present were: Mrs. Geo. K. Williams of Topeka; Mrs. Harry Abott and Mrs. Seymour Williams of Tulsa; Miss Edna Sweich of Wichita; and others whose names we were unable to obtain in the great rush.

A YELLOW CASTE.
"Awake! Arise! Or Be Forever
Fallen"—Milton.
By Rucker Smith
Do you attend the movies, if so, have you seen the colored pictures pictures shown at your favorite theatre? Did you discover that the "caste" was yellow, or to be more explicit, mullatores; and did you know that in this silent, yet subtle drama, which sinks deep into the hearts of men, no black face is shown to reflect credit or honor, but to draw out the ludicrous or humorous side of life. Did you know that the colored moving picture business, is, so far, a rank

failure? Did you know that 90 per cent of the Colored people of the United States is either brown or black and only 10 per cent are muhatoes—do you see the reason why Colored moving pictures have failed?
The little black and brown children who fill the first five rows in every Colored moving picture theatre in this country, must not be made to feel the sting of inferiority. They must be made a part of that scenery, or else, the Colored movies must go. It is shocking the sensibilities of the race to have the white movies to show us in slip-shod and humorous manner, but when the same thing is practised by our own people, it is more than we can stand. Moving pictures always represent a race, not a select few.
Would any one dare say the reflection on the movie screen of the black face of Reverend J. W. Hurse, beaming with intelligence and love for his people, or the brown likeness of Mr. Groves, who taught the world how to grow potatoes, or our own invincible Nelson Crews, who by his mastery of speech, has won a place in the hearts of a race and nation, could be other than pleasing to a Colored audience "There is some soul of goodness in things evil"
Would men observingly distill it out.

ST. JAMES A. M. E. ZION CHURCH
The Sunday School and V. C. E. Society are both on the increase. The Sunday School's Saving Club has a strong box. Both services were well attended Sunday and our pastor preached two strong and impressive sermons....Thanksgiving was at high tide. Apparently the building was filled with the spirit of Christ....The pastor and wife received some nice things from Sisters Brown, Butler, Fleming, Vaughn and Brother Green. We were entertained at the homes of Brothers Flemings, Superintendent of the Sunday School and Johnson, also at preacher Steward's Thanksgiving and Sunday. We were highly entertained at both places. We hope to be invited again soon....Mrs. Ada Mickles and niece were fellowships into the church as full pledged members Sunday night.
ST. STEPHEN'S BAPTIST CHURCH
Rev. J. W. Hurse, D. D., Pastor.
We have just closed a successful revival. There were eighteen converts and twenty-two additions to the church. Sunday morning, our pastor, being indisposed, did not preach and we had an Old Fashioned speaking meeting which we all enjoyed. In the afternoon Rev. Norfleet of Kansas City, Kas, preached the baptizing sermon, Text Mark 16:15, subject "God's Marching Orders." The sermon was wonderful, Brother Bartell prayed a soul-stirring prayer and the pastor baptized. Evening service, song service conducted by the choir. The pastor made some preliminaries and read a lesson; we continued speaking meeting. Closing prayer by Deacon Briscoe.... Our pastor will leave Friday night for Denver, Colo., to conduct a meeting at St. Stephen Baptist church of which Rev. Floyd T. Smith is pastor. If he isn't able to run the meeting he will visit his mother and sister while there.... All Auxiliaries are alive. We were very successful in our rally. We thank the visitors for their co-operation. We also thank Mr. Martin Young, a sinner man for $20.00 in our rally. Money raised; Live Wire Club, $1,135.70; David Tribe Club, $672.62; Rev. J. W.

CHRISTIAN CHURCH
Twenty-Fourth street and Woodland Avenue.
William Alphin, Minister. The month of November was well used by the Church and all departments. They are entering the last month of this fiscal year encouraged and in fine spirit. The Thanksgiving service was fine. The service was the best social and financial entertainment, we have ever had. Expressions of satisfaction and delight came from members and visitors. The entertainment was under the auspices of the Aid Society and Brotherhood, two departments of the church. Mrs. W. H. Pero served as chairman of the various committees and received the cooperation and full fellowship of all the workers in the Aid Society and the job was well put over and they are ready for the next one. Sunday was a fine day in Bible School enrollment and attendance continues to increase. Some teachers were absent. Attendance at Church services good. Many visitors from out of the City. The deacons receive dwhat they asked for. The Choir seems to know no failure here of late. They lift us up with hymns of gratitude and praise. They are planning to serve all the Lord's day services beginning the first of the year. Next Sunday will be our annual educational rally day. We led by far every church in the state last year and was second in the entire brotherhood. Each member is urged to be present and do their best. Mrs. Wm. Alphin will make the address at 11:00 A. M. and have charge of the

We are pleased to announce through the columns of the Sun that we are doing well. With all of our ups and downs we are keeping pace with the words of the Master. We partook of a grand dinner Thanksgiving day at brother John Yates, 1416 E. 5th street. The menu was very elaborate. There we met his sister, Mrs. Smith of Duluth, Minn., who was called here on account of the serious illness of their mother. Mr. and Mrs. O'Nell and son of Kansas City, Kansas, were also guests at the dinner. We were indeed glad to meet them. We ask the people of this community to come and help us for we have hope of prosperity in the near future.

Dear Sir: I wish to say to you in regard to your medicine, that it is simply wonderful.
Having been bothered with indigestion for some considerable time and after trying everything I knew of, I decided to quit taking medicine. On hearing of your discovery and how wonderful it was, decided to give it a trial and the first dose gave me quick relief and happy to say have not had it since.
I hope every person bothered with indigestion will give this medicine a trial.

Dear Sir: I can't find words enough to express my thanks for the good Moore's Vigorine has done for me. I was down in my back and had that tired and sluggish feeling and all of my joints seemed to be stiff and with no life, but the second dose that I took removed all of that and I wouldn't be without a bottle in my house. It makes me feel 10 years younger and I feel like a new man.

ANNOUNCEMENT
THE KANSAS CITY SUN, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1920
"LIL" ARTHU RSTILL CARRIES A KNOCK OUT PUNCH.
Leavenworth, Kas., Nov. 24.—Wearing his universally known golden smile, Jack Johnson, former world's heavyweight champion today demonstrated to 3,000 fellow prisoners in the federal penitentiary here and 2,500 boxing fans that he still is at least a shade of his former self when he knocked out Frank Owens, Chicago heavyweight in the sixth round of a scheduled six-round bout. Owens, who claims to hold a referee's decision over Sam Langford, was battered into submission by "Lil Arthur," who worked a short left hook on his opponent almost unmercifully. Johnson entered the ring weighing 215 pounds, Owess was ten younds heavier. Johnson is 42 years old.
The masterful cunning of the former champion, which made him famous several years ago, remains visible. Owens did not land a telling blow after the first round when he caused Johnson to bleed from the mouth by a right uppercut. Johnson stepped about the ring hitting his opponent at will and dodging whenever the latter made an attempt to hit him. The former champion threw caution to the winds in the first round when Owens landed three hard blows. Johnson retaliated, blow for blow, and threw in several for good measure. The blows did not seem to tell on rugged Owens, who came back for more each time.
Johnson's hard punches began to take effect in the second round. Owens went down for the count of eight three times in the third. He regained his stamina in the fourth round, but in the fifth the unending rain of blows showered on his face and body, sent him down time and again. Owens graced the floor no less than seven times during the round, each time remaining down a little longer than necessary in hope of a short rest that he might weather the inevitable storm.
Groggy, with both eyes nearly closed, Owens staggered from his corner for the final round. He walked clear across the ring where Johnson waited for him. The unrelentless shower of punches was renewed. Owens went to the floor where he remained for the count of nine. No sooner was he on his feet than he was floored again, this time for the count of seven. He arose almost helpless for Johnson to finish the bout with a crashing left smash to the jaw. Owens was out for several minutes. The smile still remained on Johnson's face. His mouth had quit bleeding.
Johnson then called for Topeka Jack Johnson, whom he sparred with through four rounds. The former champion troyed with the Kansas Negro without exerting himself.
Four other bouts were on the program, which was the annual Thanksgiving entertainment for the inmates of the federal prison. Mike Regan of Leavenworth refereed all bouts.
"Heraldo Commercial," Cuba's leading financial journal, gave some front page space to baseball playing in Cuba and after discussing "exhortant charges for seeing the New York Giants and Babe Ruth" said "CASTILLO, as a batter, is worth more to us than all the grand batters in the United States." Senora Castillo is a brown-skin. And, just to rub it in for the "Heraldo," Torriente, another brown skin Cuban ball player, well known in the U. S. A., after reading the article, made Three Home Runs and a "Three Bagger" which raised a delirium of hosanas to be heard forever by all baseball fans. The twenty thousand and more spectators of this unparalleled baseball feat, broke chairs, grandstand railings and voices; threw away hats, tore up their programs and the grass. They petted, patted, caressed and lifted Senor Torriente above their shoulders and paraded him hither and thither when the game was done. They showered bills upon him; that night they banqueted him, across the way, but in frone of the Crackers otel and for a week, he was busy waltzing with Amelia Sorg, the leading Spanish dancer in avana, receiving diamond pins, money, belts with golden buckles, finest clothes, finest haberdashery, until now, he is, besides being a crack baseball player, a ragtime millionaire.
Washington, D. C.—Howard University won the Colored Intercollegiate football championship Thanksgiving afternoon at the American League baseball park from Lincoln University of Chester county, Penn., before twenty-thousand enthusiastic football followers and frends of both schools. The final score of the game was 42 to 0 in favor of the capital city lads. The event which is the "football classic of the year" attracted thousands of visitors from all the large cities in the country. Persons of note from all walks of life were seen from as far west as Tennessee and Illinois and as far south as Jacksonville, Fla., New York, Philadelphia and Atlantic City, sending the biggest delegations; Baltimore, Norfolk, Newport News, Welmington and Charleston coming next. Cleveland and Pittsburgh were well represented.
Game a Social Affair.
The game itself was one of the most brilliant social events in the history of Colored football. Never before has such a crowd of women and men, gathered to see any two teams play and it might be said too much credit cannot be given Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University who is wholly responsible for this remarkable turnout. In days gone by this annual struggle between the two universities has been played on Howard's campus when that school acted as host but Dr. Scott saw clearly that the grounds there were not
enough, and sought the use of the Washington American League park and after several refusals on the part of the masagement, he finally succeeded in winning over those in charge of his way of thinking and the park has turned over to him for the day's game.
(By the Associated Negro Press.)
Chicago—The national meeting of the National Baseball League will convene in Indianapolis, Indiana, December 3-4, at the Y. M. C. A. This will be the biggest meeting in the history of Colored baseball. Representatives: L. R. Williams, George C. Pate, of Cleveland; Sol. White of Columbus; D. H. Smith, of Kansas City, Mo. will attend the meeting.
Newspaper men who will be in attendance are Q. J. Glimore, Kansas City Sun, Kansas City, Mo.; R. R. Lewis, Managing Editor of Pittsburg Courier; Frank Young, Sporting Editor of the Chicago Defender; Elwood C. Knox, Indianapolis Freeman; G. W. Stewart, Indianapolis Recorder; Representatives of the Chicago Whip; A. L. Williams of Baseball Magazine; and Wr. Jackson, of the Indianapolis Ledger.
The following club owners will be present: John T. Blount, Detroit Stars; J. P. Hill, manager of the Detroit Stars; J. L. Wilkinson, Kansas City; Chas. A. Mills, St. Louis Giants; A. Allineres, Havana, Cuba; John Matthews, Dayton, Ohio; Chas. A. Green, Chicago; C. R. Taylor, Indianapolis and Andrew Rube Foster of the American Giants.
All the newspapers of Cuba have words of praise for the Bachrachs and expect them to keep the Cuban teams busy. As yet, they have not conceded that their teams will lose to the visitors. When the A. B. C, baseball team was here, C. I. Taylor wrote some interesting letters about Opportunities for Riches in Cuba and would, no doubt, have invested here, if he had have returned. Of all the Colored American baseball players who have come to these shores, Taylor is the only one who wrote for the press in a far fetching and comprehensive way.
The Strong Liberty, Mo., Athletic foot ball team coached by A. J. Willis has closed a successful season winning all seven games played. Liberty claims the championship of the Middle-west.

RESOLUTIONS OFFERED BY THE WORKERS IN THE REPUBLICAN CAMPAIGN TO THEIR CHAIRMAN MYRTLE F. COOK.
Be It Resolved: That we, co-workers in the Republican campaign, extend to Mrs. Myrtle Cook, our chairman, our hearty thanks for the unbiased spirit she has shown to all. When God looked down the ages and conceived a woman fit to be the mother of Christ, He chose a woman of noble, pure and unselfish qualities; and when the County Committee put forth every effort to secure a chairman for the Negro Women's Division, they found Mrs. Cook with the same spirit and qualities characteristic in the mother of Christ. Some may have conceived the idea that they could have accomplished greater work but, to us who know, the results have been satisfactory.
Be It Resolved: That we extend to the County Committee through their chairman, Mrs. Mosher, our heart felt thanks for their wise selection; and We It Further Resolved: That we extend to Cook many, many thanks for all she has done and that God's blessing may more fully shine upon her in the future than in the past. And with these words of the great poet so fully describing her work we leave you:
"Not to the Wise Men only
With their gifts of myrth and gold,
Not to the shepherds lonely
Is confined the quest of old.
But each in his heart may find Him,
Who enters on earnest quest;
And the gift as of old we may bring Him,
Is simply—Our Very Best."
Many thanks also to our very efficient secretary, Mrs. Anna Roberts, and the same blessings for both.
Be It Resolved: That a copy of these resolutions be given the General Committee, a copy to Mrs. Cook, and a copy to the organization that is to be completed.
Respectfully submitted,
Mrs. Ona B. Wilson, 9th Ward Capt.
Mrs. Miley G. Wallace, 11th Ward.
Miss Lillian Tooley, 8th Ward.

—That the guy who keeps on smiling is the one who usually lives to a ripe old age.
—That a woman never looks as well in a divorce suit as she did in her wedding gown.
—That the man who tells you he never told a lie is usually telling you one while he's telling you that.
—That if a girl has what the men call a good figure the women will say 'she's bunchy.' Ain't they awful?
—That Miss Mary G. Evans, the evangelist gave Allen Chapel particular h—1 on its hypocrisy on last Sunday. And best of all made 'em like it. Amen.
—That there are a whole lot of people who can do things just a little better than anybody else (to hear them tell it) but they never do anything. Have you ever met 'em?
—That white folks like to visit Negro cabarets even if the law doesn't permit it. They say they get more warmth and jazz than they do at their own. Well we gess dey dus.
—That just before Thanksgiving a certain brother was heard to say "Lawd send me a turkey; or if you can't send it direct me to a turkey." Now he's in jail. Why?
—That a good sister started purchasing a new fur coat last summer for $150.00 and has paid all but $40.00 but they won't let her have it until she pays the other $40 and she's to be married this month. Ain't that a shame.
—That a certain woman who had been used to busting suds in a warm basement and dreaming of the days when she'd be rich went down and bought her a pair of new low cut shoes and fancy hose remarking "da if dese rich white gals can wear desse things I she can too." But it happened to be a very cold day when she tried them out and the next day they had to keep her feet in a tub of hot water all day to draw out the frost. Well Betty don't want to be like white folks no how.

and an identity apparently merged in
the character she essayed to portray.
Prof. T. H. Reynolds was likewise
adequate i the role of Mordecal, and
when in the dramatic high-light of the
second act his resonant tenor mingled
in duet with Mrs. Brown's limpid
soprano, "Go, then unto the King" an
unusually large tear coursed down my
weather-beaten face and plumped fairly
into my vest pocket. I always did
cry there, but they, by the perfe-
tion of their voices and art, increased
the size of the tear.
Mrs. Emma Payne in her portrayal of Zeresh brought to bear a contrario voice, pure, liquid, and flexible, which carried the tragic motif from her initial number, "Why should this Hebrew vex my Lord?" to the duet with Haman, "Farewell, the hour has come." a spowerfully that all the tragedy seemed to revolve her as its center.
James Anderson, with a keen consciousness of dramatic values, sung the "King's" role very acceptably, being especially fine in his indignation when Haman was denounced by Esther in the banquet scene which brought the dramatic action of the piece to its climax.
A. C. Rollins, in the barytone role of Haman, gave a performance that was eminently satisfactory, considered both musically and dramatically.
Mrs. Leilia Alain, "Prophetess," H. S. Williams, "High Priest," Ben Martin, "Harbonah," Mrs./Cora Merritt Evans, "Mordecaf's sister," "Mrs. Katherine Jones, "First Maid of Honor." Miss Jessie Wallace, "Median Princess," Samuel Stewart, "Beggar," Jno. Weaver, "Hagail," while singing minor roles, acquitted themselves with noticeable distinction, evidencing tone quality which would have shone in the stellar roles.
Having read the preceding over, I find I have failed lamentably in fault-finding. But what would you Here we had a production by amateurs, bits of mossia prepared here and there by Mrs. W. W. T. Osborne, Prof. R. G. Jackson, Major N. Clark Smith, Prof. Clyde LeRoy Glass, and what others I know not, with absolutely, so I am informed, no full dress rehearsal at all—put together for the first time before our eyes, then say I, so say we all, our eyes have beheld a miracle!
This article cannot be complete without some mention of the large and appreciative audience, remarkable in its intense interest and sympathy throughout the long action of the play. Not a soul laughed out loud during the intense emotional scenes, which left the fool-killer with nothing to do.

QUEEN ESTHER.
By Tilford Davis, Jr.
The presentation of the Cantata "Queen Esther" at the Auditorium Theatre, November 26, marked an epoch in the musical-dramatic achievement of the N—, no—" the people of our race variety," in Kan-Mo-Kan.
The writer hereof, at a period which antedated the outbreak of the World War, frequently stubbed his toe and spilled alleged wine over king and courter alike, and in later years frequently came to grief through a refractory spear insisting on becoming entangled with trembling legs, only partially, to this day—"stage-broke"—and at more or less appropriate intervals emitting strange vocal sounds which were seldom more than a fifth off the score of this very production. No—the same, and yet not the same, for the work has been revised and expanded, and adapted for dramatic production that blase as I had felt, on the way to the theatre, during the rendition of the expanded work—frequently found myself adrift on strange waters of melody which here art island and there a continent of the old familiar score, which has been the victim of all the crimes in the calendar at the hands of those who, having successfully reformed are now numbered among our best citizens, while a few others, artfully concealed in the chorus, still carry on their fararious work of even reducing "Old Hundred" in the finale to at least "Seventy-five."
Let me see, what was I talking about Oh, yes—Well, sir, this production was the most elaborately costumed, the best staged, and, consequently the most spectacular in my experience. That no dressrehearsal of the entire cast was ever held is a dead secret which I have no intention of revealing, and if you want to know about it you will have to ask somebody else, but, if you know it, you could but wonder at the smoothness of the presentation and the few noticeable flaws.
Prof. Clyde LeRoy Glass, at the piano, from the "Overture" to the "Finale," with touch both virile and interpretive, did all that, mere man could do to satisfy the longing for an orchestra of about ten pieces, and at several critical periods proved his adaptability as an accompanist.
The choruses were well-balanced, wise in the ways of the score, sufficiently schooled in the dramatic action to contribute in a very material way to the success of the ensembles, and under the direction of Prof. R. G. Jackson and Major N. Clark Smith, who, alternated in the Director's station—were skillfully maneuvered is to the climaxes. Mrs. Edmonia Brown endowed the part of "Queen Esther" with a soprapoe voice, clear, vibrant, and appeal-

Cured His RUPTURE
I was badly ruptured while lifting a trunk several years ago. Doctors said only had to lie on the floor. Trump did me no good. Finally I got hold of something that quickly and completely cured me. Years have passed since I was cured, and though I am doing hard work as a carpenter. There was no operation, no lost time, no trouble. I have nothing to sell, and I am not going to work. You may find a complete cure without operation, if you write to me, Eugene M. Pullen, Carpenter, 10700 Marseille, Mauritius, Mauritius, N. J. Better out this notice and show it to any others who are ruptured—you may save a life or at least stop the misery of rupture and the worry and danger of an operation.

Keeping Up the Standard
When you find business slack, don't try to account for it by reasoning that it is "slack everywhere" and with everybody. This is a dangerous state of mind to fall into. The idea is to keep a knocking, keep a knocking away. Try harder than ever to keep up the standard of your service. Even make decided improvements if possible, and remember that you do not always have to have more money to do this; but that it is largely a matter of putting more brains and more enterprise in your business. This will invariably offset what we are too eazy inclined to believe it "general deposition of trade." Mr. Business Person, are you trying hard to keep your standard of service. Are you plan ning improvements in spite of every discouraging feature or phase? I not, you SHOULD!
Fair Weather Birds.
Now let us call this fact to you.
That we are largely a fairweather
crew;
That in the drizzly rain or snow
We just hem and haw and will never
go.
But when the sun doth warmly shine
Oh Boy! we go then, AND OUR GAIT
IS FINE!
In any part an appreciation of the
real is paramount.
It is facts that are continually new
to us, only fiction has to labor to be
interesting.
SLANG.
Slang words and phrases are usually more expressive than the words they supplant. For instance: "I can't get well." This is equivalent to the statement, I CAN'T SUCCEED WITH THE PROPOSITION. Now where do slangs and catch phrases come from? Many of them come from the bubbling wit of Negroes. The first we heard of the above was used by Edward Hayden, a local character of skating rink fame. Ed was heard to remark that "he could not get well." When one thoughtfully considers that life is made up of daily successes and failures, one can see readily that it is the applicableness of the phrase that makes it popular as well as expressive. This phrase also has a reverse side. It is that, "you can get well." So with that problem of yours, the one that has been worrying you so long, why not try to solve it again? Who knows, you may be able, "To get well."
Then there is another expressive phrase which uses the negative to bring out the affirmative. This is usually demonstrated in an answer. Note this: "Did you catch your train the other day?" "I didn't miss catching it." is the ready reply. The answer here is made highly positive by using a negative premise (didn't) along with the very opposite of catch which is miss. So the strong conclusion is reached that the fellow caught the train, since he did not fail to catch it.
WHAT IS A REPRISAL?
I have watched the use of this word for sometime. The first notice I gave it was during the world war when I read how the Allies threatened Germany with reprisals for certain alleged cruel practices she had perpetrated against their soldiers. So today we read of Reprisals in the young war that the Irish are making upon England. We looked this word up in Webster's International and found that it means—"Asy act of retaliation public or private." That is to say that if you hit me in the nose and I catch you on your nasal organ, I have succeeded in fairly meeting the exactitude and upholding the traditions of the REPRISAL.
Reprisals have been handed out from the beginnig of the world, the history of nations shows this in spite of the divine injunction to turn the other cheek. Even Negroes are beginning to learn the meaning of reprisal.
---
They who have been the constant victims of lynchings and burnings are being forced to see what a powerful weapon the reprisal is when publicly and privately applied.
We have already had instances of these reprisals in Washington and Chicago. The cause for these reprisals was the general mistreatment of Negroes and the constant BOMBING of their homes. The "ruling class" could have prevented the reprisals on the part of Negroes by frowning on and punishing the pulprits who committed the heinous acts that provoked the reprisals, but they would not, they let the provocative acts on the part of the whites go unrestrained and unmolested, the result was another young war of reprisals.
But out of this conflict came a wonderful discovery. It was a new determination of the Negro, a sort of a new consciousness, an idea to stand and face the face and not only to strike back, but plan little excursions on their own hook by way of diversion. It is inconceivable that one people, however weak they may be, will fail always to imbibe the educated devilty of a stronger people who practice all manner of ills against them. The curriculum of the SCHOOL OF HATE, they are eventually bound to learn each course of that school.
LEARNING SCONOMICS
We left off our subject by remarking that we want Lpuxuries but we want them in a sensible way. I do not know what the great Economists say on the subject of luxuries, but it is my opinion that luxuries properly grow out of somebody's productive power, produced wealth if you like it, just as luxury in the growth and development of plant life exists as the evident genius and soul of Nature. Note the productive plan of Nature, it is sublime in its immensity, prodigal in its production of wealth and luxury. I mean to say that there is nothing stingy about the work of nature, but it rather appears to be supergenerous and fruitful, its style seems to be after the order of plenty. These are reasons why I do not accept the qualities that most preachers (black and white) impute unto the Deity. They have made God a veritable beggar! Instead of appreciating Him as the inspiration of a nature itself and as the Master Mind of original directivity, advancing the factor of boundless creation with its wonders and glories, they rather teach the people to despise this heavenly economy that sustains the whole divine plan of worlds and worlds including the masterful Solar System. In a more eclesiastical sense they have suashed the appreciative spirit even of their congregation who would sing: 'My Father is rich in houses and land, and instituted in its stead a cunningly picked exhortation which brings in the money:
"Blessed 'is the cheerful giver!"
The preacher, however, believes in luxuries, at least for one particular person. He does not particularly care for the congregation having luxuries, though, these might corrupt them. This indifference to luxury for the congregation is signally noted in our quarter.
Luxury, it may not be out of order here for us to give a definition of it in its most modern sense, and especially as we wish to apply it here. We have already learned that it is the economic that first imposed itself upon men, that it was the stern necessities which urged him on to action. We have further learned just what these necessities are. We still further learned that the political discovered in men something that we have hitherto been content to call a restless spirit, but which we now call mind. This, embodying the sublimely real, demands more than economic solution for men. Man can not live off of bread alone. Neither can he develop fully off of the mere necessities of existence, even in the most material sense. Having assuaged the primal wants he must keep moving. He can not stand still, physical welfare does not satisfy the best

ROYAL CIRCLE MAKES CLASS OF 236.
Ida Vaughn Circle No. 1640 Gives Can
didate a Floral Design.
Tuesday night, November 30th, the Supreme Royal Circle of Friends of the World, a Fraternal insurance organization which has made rapid progress in Kansas City, made a class of 236 candidates at the New Dreamland Hall. The class was made in the Royal Degree by the Supreme Supervisor of the Missouri and Kansas jurisdictions. Mr. A. L. Richmond. After the class was made several friends who are members of the Royal Circle in other states were introduced, and gave the Candidates food for thought telling them of the benefits derived from being a member of the Royal Circle, telling them how promptly all claims were paid, without a moments delay. Friend Moore of Texas, Friend Patterson of Arkansas, Friend Baker of Tennessee and several of the Local President's were introduced. An elaorate luncheon was then served to all members and candidates.
The Candidates were then given an opportunity to express themselves and all who spoke, gave the same expression; that the Royal Circle was the greatest Fraternal Order they had ever joined, and that they were glad to have had the opportunity to become a member.
In the remarks of the Supreme Supervisor he told the class that all of Our Fraternal Orders were good.
of Our Frat
in man. So we say that he can not stand still, because the moving cycle of laws will sweep him on in spite of himself. Individually he may deteriorate, but nature itself, so to speak would raise up stones to supplant him elsewhere to advance the cause of the idea of progress. The tendency then cf creation is to go on, unfold, and there is no end. Luxury then, is not mere overgrowth as your dictionary will indicate, but it is your education of the higher nature that is within you. Here let us acknowledge the superness of the mental as representing what is over that of the physical. Hence when you have secured the necessities of life, all added unto these are luxuries that can further develop you toward a higher satisfaction of existence. It is luxuries that help men to discover that they are more than economic units of mere eating and sleeping propensities.
So in our day when we get the food, teh clothes and shelter we begin naturally to look for something else. Following the laws of comfort and health we put a wooden floor on the dirt floor, and pushing the dial further we put a carpet on the wooden floor, and still on this carpet may still be placed the truly luxurious rug. So far these luxuries are only calculated for the physical ease, but remember that these luxuries here in any degree pre supposes that industry and the spirit of production have been at work by somebody. In plain words, somebody must work for luxuries that anybody enjoys.

to have been made a member of the

suddenly not having been sick at all.

would gladly have paid the claim, as
Mrs. Arnold would have been entitled

been $75.00 and a monument placed at

St. Louis, Mo., Nov. 30.—In the midst of the profusion of beautiful flowers, folk-lore music and fitting decorations, the new annex to Poro College was joined to the mother plants this week. The dedicatory exercises occupied the final four days of Thanksgiving week and were attended and participated in by the flower of racial endeavor and accomplishment from all over the country. The event brought so many of the outstanding members of the race to St. Louis that Prof. Aaron E. Malone, President, and Mrs. Annie M. Malone, Founder of Poro College, anticipated it as a signal for the arrangement of various conferences looking up to the welfare and advancement of Colored people.

With the added 20,000 square feet in the newly completed annex, floor space in the Poro establishment aggregates five acres, every ence of which is devoted to teaching some useful lessons to the youth of the race. The spectable of 230 young women and young men engaged in the manufacture, shipping and clerical addenda of Poro products; the array of hundreds of girls uniformly intent upon acquiring the culture to fit them for useful occupation; the gentle Christian atmosphere that starts with the chapel assembly in the morning and pervades the discipline of the entire day, suggesting an iron hand in a velvet glove; the elegant simplicity of mural decorations, often by Colored artists; the curriculum that provides for culture by contact and example; the essence of applied business science reduced to its lowest terms gives Poro College first rank among useful and successful racial undertakings and a singular place for Mr. and Mrs. Malone among the leaders in constructive efforts.
COST $500,000
Rapid evolution of the Poro enterprise necessitated the erection less than two years ago, of a building that cost $350,000. As soon as the plant was installed it was discovered that even with the most careful economy of space the new building did not meet the demands of the business, and in its new home was to project additional floor acreage. This was accomplished two weeks ago when the annex was completed at a cost of $150,000, bringing the building investment

The annex adjoins the mother plant and, like the first, is built of the finest and most secure of fire-proof materials and is connected with sundry tunnels and bridges, the arteries of the economic system. Every improvement in equipment that is available has been installed; mechanical carriers that bring the Poro products from the laboratories to the shipping tables; labor-saving office appliances; cleanly young women diligently operating in scrupulously clean factories, flooded with light from hundreds of windows—that is the new home of Poro College.
Neighborhood Center.
And this splendid monument to racial achievement is in the very heart of a Colored neighborhood, facing one of the leading churches and within a stone's throw of two of the principal school buildings.
"But why," we asked Mr. and Mrs. Malone, "did you erect this significant racial enterprise down in the center of the business district? "Wouldn't it be a revelation to the white people to see daily what you are doing?"
"We have the answer." smiled little Mrs. Annie Malone. "You know we are not working among the white people. We are striving for our own. Poro College is an industrial effort of the Colored people, by the Colored people, for the Colored people, and the education of example. Undismayed by the century or more of handicap that we labor under, we mean to catch and then keep up. You cannot help the Jews by dwelling among the Gentiles."
We did not ask any more questions on that score, but began to look around. We found that the Colored people in the neighborhood of Pendleton and St. Ferdinand avenues, taking their cue from the Poro center, have begun to build beautiful houses for themselves; that a race consciousness is taking the ascendancy; there were closely barbed lawns in front of their houses, immaculate curtains in the windows and sanitary back yards bringing up the rear of even the humblest homes. All with a healthy growth from an inspired planting of racial small business enterprises. Their we realized the Poro purpose.
Philanthropic Scope.
Are the Malone activities confined to the fireproof walls of Poro College? We should say not—positively not! To those who cannot help themselves and to those who are endeavoring to help themselves, the Malones have always extended a ready and a willing hand. Paraphrasing a it of popular vernacular, their lives are one good thing after another.
Here follows a sample calendar:
Interesting themselves in the election of Senator Harding, Mr. Malone accepted a place upon the Executive Committee of the Republican Party in Missouri, and seconded by his wife, aided in a material way from his office down-town in making the state hand over its electoral vote to the man from Marion. The tumult and the shouting of the victory had scarcely subsided before the Malone staff was transferred to Quincy, Ill., where they raised $10,000 for a Colored social center, themselves contributing nearly $4,000 to the amount. Right back to St. Louis, where the need of a Colored orphans' home was a crying one, they pulled off their coats and rolled up their sleeves to secure $100,000 for this worthy purpose. And would you believe it? In one week, ending November 22, they raised $67,000 for the orphans, $10,000 of which they themselves contributed in cash. And then, without hardly taking a breath, they advanced into the dedication of the new building, entertaining at their personal expense hundreds of race men and women. Not a lezy bone in the bodies of the Malones.
The new annex is equipped with a laundry with all of the latest improved machinery, a bakery that has a capacity not only for the demands of the institution, but its a boon to the neighborhood; a refrigerating plant and other useful and advanced features.
