SYRACUSE, N. Y.—Not since the
“Jubilee Singers” made the name of
Fisk, familiar, has Syracuse heard
quite what it listened to Monday night
at the Mizpah, The interval has been
more than a few years; but the sudi-
ence, crowding alales and choir loft,
gave evidence by its size and enthu-
siasm, that the public was ready to
welcome the old Negro Melodies if
given an opportunity,
Primarily Syracuse is under obliga-
to the Commonwealth ‘club for the
. Privilege of a concert of this charae-
ter, At the initiative of the club, a
year or two ago was started the Dun-

“Questionable Amvsements” at onc
time was a common theme for éebate,
but tho subject was never associated
vith a mirstrcl for never since the
hiatory cf the huiaan race started has
the form: of ningirel entertainment
been cuertioned, The base ball game,
the cireus and the ml-.strel are three
forms of innocent amusement which
tre patronized by tens of thousancs
of peorte who hold aloof from other
aitrections,
Creating of lauzhter, the rengermgz
of tuncful music, charming wei¢s
comical stunts and curious noveltics,
woretilute the purpose of the min-
strol, For this reason, time and again
in the professional papcrs the per-
formers cnd others engaged ia the
legitimate amusemert buemess have
heen assured by the government that
amusements of th's character are not
considered non-essential. No wonder,
mm these strenuous tintes, the demand
tor the mnaticls is frercas ng until if
ia impossible for the manazement of a
first-class company bhe the Famous
Georgia Minstrels to fill one-half of
the dates offered them. People want
to be entertained to laugh and thus
their ncrvous systems are better tuned
to the times, 4
With the Famous Georgia Min-
strels are associated some forty peo-
ple, all consisting of the very cream
of the Nezro m‘nstrel profession,
and after oll the Negro is the natur-

George Leon Johnson of tho Nation’

here fiom New York, to train for

which he was able to produce the sat-

when they acquired vogue in the
North. If there was to be criticism,
it would be at occasional Inter-

If for these had been substituted plan-
tation melodica, the result would have
been more pleasing than it was.
Perhaps in other concerts we shall
be favored in this way, for we have
not heard the last of this chorus. The
Negro spiritua] 1s coming to be re-
cognized as a valuable contribution to
the music of our country, something
which, as Mr, Johnson told hus audi-

was about to sail when he seceived a

More than two years had elapsed since Paul had been tried before Felix, during which time Jewish hatred for him had not abated. As soon as Festus, the new governor, went to Jerusalem he was beheaded with accusations against Paul. His accusers desired that he be brought to Jerusalem for trial, intending to lie in wait and kill him on the way. Festus refused their request, but agreed to give them an opportunity to accuse Paul if they would go down to Caesarea. They were unable to prove anything against him. Festus, willing to please the Jews, proposed to send him to Jerusalem for trial. Paul rebukeled Festus for this, declaring that he knew very well that he was innocent. Seeing that it was impossible to get justice before Festus, Paul made use of his right as a Roman citizen and appealed to Caesar. This surprised Festus. His failure to release an innocent man placed him in an awkward position for he could give no explanation as to why an innocent man should go to Rome for trial.
1. Paul Before the King (25:11:27)
The occasion of his appearing before Agrippa was the visit of Agrippa and Bernice to Festus. Upon their arrival they expressed a desire to hear Paul, whereupon Festus told them of his perplexity. So it was arranged that Paul be brought before them for examination. The gospel should be preached to all regardless of wealth or station in life.
11. Paul's Defense Before Agrippa (20:1:27).
1. The Introduction (v. 1-3)
He expressed his delight that he now could speak and tell his case to one who was able to follow his line of argument, for Agrippa was an expert in questions concerning the Jews; but most of all he was now happy in witnessing to him of the Savior, and per haps leading him into the light of God.
2 His Manner of Life (vv 412):
This he showed had been in strict accord with the most rigid sect of Jews. He possessed the same hope, i.e., that of n. coming Deliverer, and reminded them of the fact that formerly he was most bitterly opposed to Christ as his zeal would prove.
3 His Supernatural Conversion (vv 13-15).
Jesus Christ appeared to him on the way to Damascus and revealed Himself to him.
4. Jesus Christ Commissioned Him for His Work (vv. 16-18).
He was sent unto the Gentiles:
(1) To open their eyes so awfully blinded.
(2) To perform the blessed work of turning them from darkness to light.
(3) To turn them from the power of satan unto God.
(4) That they might receive forgiveness of sins.
(5) And that they might obtain an inheritance among the saints.
5 His Consecration (vv. 19-23).
As soon as he received his commission, he obeyed. Every man should instantly obey the call of God and devote his life to carrying forward the work entrusted to him. The vigorous prosecution of his work brought him into conflict with the Jews, for which they sought to kill him.
4. The Interruption by Festus (vv. 24).
Seeing how thoroughly In earnest Paul * aitus attempted to account for it by calling him a crank attributing it to the ravings of an unbalanced mind
7. Paul's Appeal to Agrippa (vv 25-27)
Still maintaining his courage, he appealed to Agrippa's knowledge of the work of Jesus and of the prophets for they have an intimate connection
III. Agrippa Almost Persuaded (vv 28-32)
Whether Agrippa's answer was a contemptuous anger or not, it is the evident that his soul was wrought upon, he saw the claims of Christ upon him but was unwilling to yield. Sad indeed, that a man should be so near to eternal life, and get lost! Paul took Agrippa seriously. His heart longed that Agrippa and all concerned, might accept Christ and be saved.
For Religious Peace
It would make greatly for religious peace in this country if we all learned to rejoice when we hear of others finding God in any way, and reason to insist that our own way is the best.—A. Herbert Gray.

RACE GIRL RISKS LIFE SAVING WHITE BABY
RACE GIRL RISKS LIFE SAVING WHITE BABY
(Preston News Service)
LITTLE ROCK, ARK., Nov. 27-By giving the baby carriage a quick, hard push, young Miss Louisa Johnson, a nurse girl, Thursday, saved the life of a three month old baby (white) in her charge from probable death under the wheels of a speeding car, but was struck herself and painfully injured.
The quick-thinking of Miss Johnson is responsible for the life of the baby. Miss Johnson was pushing the baby carriage across the street when she saw a machine approaching at a rapid rate of speed. She gave the bhggy a hard shove out of danger, and then jumped, but was too late to save herself. She suffered severe cuts on the arms, face and body and bruises about her legs, but her condition is not considered serious by hospital authorities.
The driver of the machine did not stop his car after the accident, but H. G. Leveck, riding in another automobile saw the accident and gave chase. Four blocks away he caught the driver and took him to the police station where he was turned over to the authorities and was held on reckless driving charge.
NORTH CAROLINA LEADS IN NEGRO SCHOOLS
(Freston News Service)
RALEIGH, N. C., Nov. 27—North Carolina has built one to every other five Negro school houses erected in all the southern states according to Dr Francis W. Shepardson, secretary and director of the Julius Rosenwald Fund of Chicago, who was in Raleigh, last week to attend the Annual State Negro Educational Conference here. While in North Carolina, Dr. Shepardson with Prof. S. L. Smith, of Nashville, Tenn., general Field agent for the Rosenwald Fund, visited many of the Negro Schools throughout the state.
Last Wennesday they visited schools a Durham County; Thursday was spent in Meeklenburg County and Friday in Union County. Tuesday

Of the total 2,083 Rosenwald schools which have been built in the South, 515 have been built in North Carolina. More than one-sixth of the total expenditure of thirteen million dollars has been spent in North Carolina, which indicates that North Carolina is erecting the better and larger type of schools for Negroes. The total expenditures in North Carolina amount to more that $2,353,000. These schools have a capacity for 60,750 children and employ 1,350 teachers.
Halifax County has the second largest number of Rosenwald schools in the South, Shelby County, Tenn., leading with a small margin. Halifax County has 39 of these schools, and several others are under construction.
In discussing the Negro Educational Conference held here Monday, Prof. Smith declared that such a group of Negroes could not be gathered together in any other state in the South. North Carolina, is said, was far ahead of other southern states in the number of educational leaders among Negroes. Both Mr. Shepardson and Prof. Smith commended N. C. Newball, director of Negro Education in this State, and the work he is doing here.

According to county officers, the attack upon Brock was the result of the arrest of Webb and Brock, Sunday afternoon. Officers have been keeping close watch on Webb in an effort to catch him on a liquor charge and while lying in wait for him Sunday, they are said to have seen him sell whisky to Brock. Both were arrested and when brought here, furnished bond.
Believing that Brock had tipped off the officers, Webb and Nash are said to have gone to Brock's home Sunday night and to have beaten him. At the hearing Monday afternoon, Brock had his head swathed in bandages. Webb and Nash waived preliminary hearing. They made peace bonds.

ARKANSAS BAPTIST COLLEGE SWAMPS SHORTER COLLEGE 30-0
(Preston News Service
NORTH LITTLE ROCK, ARK. Nov. 27—A B. C's, fleet footed team had too many plays up their sleeves for the Shorter College Gridsters on Monday afternoon and when the final gun sounded, the "Navy Aggregation" had run up a gigantic score of 30 to 0 and strengthened their claim to collegiate championship of the State. A grevious fumble in the first quarter gave the "Buffaloes" their first six points, but thereafter, the touchdowns were earned, largely by sensational forward pass route, one of which counted for 80 yards.
The Shorter eleven played a splendid game but the Baptist boys were too much for them in practically every department of the game. On several occasions the winners showed their superior skill and grit. They out-gamed the Methodist boys all the way through the contest.
Tabernacle Baptist Rev. Wm. McIveen, Pastor
Rev. R. C. Christopher was at his post and opened S. S., on time. Lesson reviewed by Rev. Williams. The morning service was largely attended; pastor preached a great sermon from 1st Peter 2nd chapter, 5th verse: "Priesthood."
Rev. Williams sang.
B. Y. P. U., at 6 o'clock; Mrs. B. E. Givens, President opened. A splendid prgoram was rendered.
At 8 o'clock, Pastor preached on "Thanksgiving."

WEAKLINGS SHOULD BE KEPT UNDER STRICT SURVEILLANCE
(Pittsburgh News Service)
PITTSBURGH, PA, Nov. 27—Seeking annulment of his marriage, Leonard Kip Rhinelander has caused much ink to be spilled both pro and con as well as furnished amusement and occupation for the idle rich, scandal lovers, social workers, writers, thinkers, empty-heads, and all. Commenting on the case, Frank C. Harper in the Pittsburgh Press says:
"It is unlucky for the Rhinelander family of New York, which boast of its blue blood, that it could not find some other way than a suit at law to release one of its actions from a marraige distasteful to it.
"Young Leonard Kip Rhinelander's portrait, as painted by his own lawyer, is anything but flattering to the family pride. A mentally backward and physically defective youth whom his handsome Negress wife seduced and got into her power—that is the picture.
"He was so infatuated with her," says his father's lawyer, 'that he was her slave, body and soul.'
"How that confession must tickle the shade of Booker T. Washington, who insisted that the black was the stronger race of the two."
"On the other hand, just what position, does it put fond parents of highly placed young ladies in when they are planning a marriage between a favorite daughter and a young man concerning whom they konw little except that he belongs to one of 'our oldest families'?
How little that distinction proves or is worth as a guarantee of physical soundness or moral or intellectual character!
"Great names,' said Rochefoucauld, 'degrade instead of elevating those who do not know how to sustain them.
"That is equivalent to saying that great families should constantly keep their weaklings and incapables nuder the closest surveillance."

BOND ISSUE TO
IMPROVE NEGRO
SCHOOLS
HOUSTON, TEXAS, Nov. 27—The colored school system of this city will profit considerably from the school bond issue voted by the city a few days ago. A definite program, providing for the enlargement and improvement of the fifteen existing schools and the erection of some new ones, has been worked out in detail, it is said, by the school board, after a careful survey of the need. Additional grounds are to be purchased in the case of five or six schools; four new buildings are to be erected, and fifty or sixty class rooms to be added to present buildings, besides a number of large additions to be used as play grounds and auditoriums. Upon pledge by the school board that Negroes would share proportionately in the improvements, provided the bond issue passed, the Negroes voted almost unanimously for its passage.

FOREST, MISS., Nov. 27—Sheriff Floyd McKenzie, of Scott County, is receiving the plaudits of newspapers and of prominent citizens for his fidelity to duty in saving from a threatening mob, Marsh Rushing, colored prisoner, and protecting him in his constitutional right to trial by due process of law. Accused of attempted assault, Rushing was arrested and hurried away by the sheriff to Jackson, the state capitol, where he was placed under the protection of Governor Whitfield. There he confessed the crime and expressed willingness to plead guilty.

mob is a mob whether it is in Mississippi or in the Northwestern University. The same results are obtained. Nothing is safe. The power to reason is gone and you have on your hand a mass of humanity wilder than any savage and ready to destroy anything that is before it. There is no way to describe the psychological effect the impatient contention has on the minds of human beings, it grows until it gets to the place they don't want to stand anything from anybody. America thought it was a joke when the South lowered itself to the savage state and poor helpless black people were shot, clubbed, hanged, dragged, burned, and the whole community terrorized, but it did not stop there, their spirit has entered into our colleges, both white and black; and to all parts of this land. This generation is simply practicing what the other generation taught. Unthoughtful America, the Bible says: "What great fire a little fire will kindle." Who knows but what the South has not sown the seed of hate, prejudice, envy, strife and demonstrated the their spirits with mob violence until the whole government will be destroyed. It is possible, but we hope not probable. Common sense teaches us that we can train a bull-dog to fight and nothing can stay in the yard where he is; on the other hand we can train him to protect everything that is around him; if lower animals can be trained to be safe and protective, how much so could man, the crowning glory of God's work? No! America is trying to teach two standards: one for the white man and one for the black man and foreigners. This will not do because it is contrary to the laws of heaven and man must go down when he cuts across the laws of heaven. All men are equal in birth and need an equal chance to prepare for his contribution to society: If he is trained right and given a fair chance, he will be an asset, but if not he will be a liability and sometime a mighty force for destruction. This county must make all of its parts safe for any of its parts to be safe. The same spirit that ripened into fruits in Northwestern is growing in our city, and if the whole truth of the Master is not made real in the lives of the students, teachers and community, we will be disgraced and it may be destroyed. Bring yourself under subjection, is the first step to safeguarding the community.
ATTORNEY SPEARS CHAMPIONS THE RIGHT FOR THE RACE.
ATTY. JAS. A. SPEARS is fighting a case in this city, Frank Williams vs a Prejudiced Community now which is just as important to this community for its future welfare as the Dr. Sweet case in Detroit; the only difference is they are spending money by the thousands in Detroit, while Atty. Spears is working for almost nothing that the Community might be safe in which to live in the future. If prejudice is allowed to bring forth fruit in this instance, it will bring forth fruit in many ways in the future. It is not a matter now of trouble or he should not have been in trouble, but it is a matter of right and wrong; it is a matter of who shall reign, prejudice or the law. If law is to reign then the country is safe for all; if not it is dangerous for all. It would not hurt this community to go together and put about $1000 in this attorney's hand and let him test the strength of the law in Wichita, and even before the Supreme Court. If the act is unlawful the citizen should be protected, and both white and black should see to the law having the right-of-way. You can count on us to do our part, not that we want Negroes to live among white people, but that the law might be upheld and the community made a safe place in which to live. Christians could live together without any flipping, but this community is lasking for the love of God, which constraintth; so the law will have to be resorted to, which looks unreasonable in a Christian land. WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?
