THE NEGRO STAR. FOR THE GOOD OF THE PEOPLE Vol.18,No.35, ANTI-LYNCHING STAND BY WOMEN OF MISSISSIPPI CAMPAIGN TO BE KUSHED THRU OUT THE STATE. REPRESENTATIVE GROUPS TAKE LEAD. (Commission on Interracial Co-operation) JACKSON, MISS., Nov. 27—Representative Mississippi woman, leaders in many important religious and civic groups, have launched a determined campaign against lynching and mob violence in this state. The opening gun was the following statement, which was framed and adopted at a state-wide meeting or prominent women held here on cull of the Mississippi Interracial Committee: "We believe in only the single standard of morals for all races, and unquestionably in the protection of the womanhood of the races. We also believe in the law, and that it should under all circumstances be respected and upheld by all citizens. Therefore we deplore mob violence for any crime and decide to register our protest against lynching or any other form of mob violence." This statement has since been presented before other important gatherings of women and has in every case been adopted without a dissenting vote. It is understood that efforts to crystallize public sentiment against lynching will be pushed throughout the State by the interacial organizations. Iromoters of the movement say mobilization of the women of eleven other Southern States along similar lines has been followed in every case by marked decrease in the number of lynchings. IMPENDING CONFLICT WITH ISLAM SEEN (Preston News Service) DETROIT, MICIL. Nov. 27—The shadow of an impending conflict between the civilizations of the western world, and that of Islam, was pictured Wednesday by James G. McDonald, chairman of the foreign Policy Association of New York City, addressing the Congress on Peace and Security. The revolt in China, Mr. McDonald saw as a result of Russian propaganda, a reaction to Western commercialism, and enmity between Germany and Poland. But Mr. McDonald saw a slight ray of hope in the results of the Lagano conference. "Lacarno," he said, "is the European States' last, most dramatic and probably most far-reaching answer to the criticism that they cannot live at peace." The challenge of the Pacific Ocean, "where the newest and the oldest civilizations meet, where the lack of, understanding and co-operation may prove the greatest calamity the world has yet known." MUSIC OF THENEGRO By MISS LAURA ROWLES 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 audience, crowding alies and choir loft, gave evidence by its size and enthusiasm, that the public was ready to welcome the old Negro Melodies if given an opportunity. Primarily Syracuse is under obligato the Commonwealth club for the privilege of a concert of this character. At the initiative of the club, a year or two ago was started the Dunbar Community Center to serve the interest and promote the welfare of 2,000 Negroes of Syracuse. Without a Probably certain people have forgotten that they are minstrel fans because it has been so long since they had an opportunity to see a really first-class minstrel aggregation how ever, the minstrel microbe will get them when the Famous Georgina Minstrels make their flash dress parade over our main streets announcing their appearance at the Crawford Twilight, Dec. 1, Matinee and night "Questionable Amusements" at one time was a common theme for debate, but the subject was never associated with a minstrel for never since the history of the human race started has the form of minstrel entertainment been questioned. The base ball game, the circus and the minstrel are three forms of innocent amusement which are patronized by tens of thousands of people who hold aloof from other attractions. Creating of lauzhter, the rendering of tuneful music, charming songs comical stunts and curious novelties, constitute the purpose of the minstrel. For this reason, time and again in the professional papers the performers and others engaged in the legitimate amusement business have been assured by the government that amusements of this character are not considered non-essential. No wonder, in these strenuous times, the demand for the minstrels is increasing until it is impossible for the management of a first-class company like the Famous Georgia Minstrels to fill one-half of the dates offered them. People want to be entertained to laugh and thus their nervous systems are better tuned to the times. With the Famous Georgia Minstrels are associated some forty people, all consisting of the very cream of the Negro minstrel profession, and after all the Negro is the natural musician and minstrel of the human race, and during the engagement here will spring some more of their pleasing surprises. rose, a good deal of work has been recruite the welfare of the 2,000 Negroes of Syracuse. Without much done in this enterprise; but the present occasion is the first in which the public has come into contact with it. George Leon Johnson of the National Community Service was brought here from New York, to train for public appearance, a large chorus which has been built up at the community center. The promptness with which he was able to produce the satisfying result of Monday night is evidence, of course, of his own ability but in still greater degress of that love of music, particularly the music of his own people, which is character- latic of the Negro. The Negro spirituals like "Couldn't Kear Nobody Pray," "Every Time I Let the Spirit," "Go Down, Moses," and "Swing Low, Sweet Charlot," had all of the appeal that they had in the years which followed slavery, when they acquired vogue in the North. If there was to be criticism, it would be at occasional intertion which was not of Negro origin. If for these had been substituted plantation melodies, 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 spiritual is coming to be recognized as a valuable contribution to the music of our country, something which, as Mr. Johnson told his audience, gives promise of permanent effect, perhaps providing a basis on which will be built a pretentious edifice in the music written by generations to come. How general is the trend toward revival of this Negro music is indicated by the fact that the Fisk Jubilee Singers are to reappear, perhaps in the person of Fisk Alumni rather than undergraduates, and if this first response of Syracuse can be taken as evidence of general popular feeling, as it probably can, there is assurance of a real success.

EARTHLY END OF WORTHY LIFE Almost sudden was the death of Mrs. Lucille (Jones) Whitley, last Wednesday night at 9.40 o'clock at her father's home Deacon W. A. Jones, 321 Wabarch, Aye. She was sick 30 hours, seemingly with one chill following another until the end came. She was the oldest daughter of Deacon Jones and after the death of her mother, when she was quite young, she resumed the responsibility of helping rear the family for her father and the city knows how well she did the job. She was a jewel herself and every member of the family is a jewel. She was one that the Proverba spoke of "rather to be chosen than rubles, yes great rubies and much fine gold. Her life was not a life of "can'ts and complaints," but a life of service to her home and her church. She did not get the children ready on Sunday morning and send them to Sunday School, but she was ready and brought them and taught classes until after she married. She leaves one little daughter as a trophy for the family to make another greater Lucille. Her funeral will be conducted from Calvary Baptist Church, Monday, Nov. 30 in the afternoon.

Douglas of St. Mary M. B. Church The Union Choir ur direction of Pro'. H. M. Barnes with Mrs. Etoile Ballard at the organ, sang, "Rescue the Perishing" So o, by Mr. James Taylor of New Hope M. B. Church: "He's The One." Rev. B. L. Marchant of New Hope M. B. Church delivered one of the best Thanksgiving Sermons ever delivered in this city, from text Psalm 107:2. Before beginning hast nor he the congregation to sing, "Stand Up, Stand Up For Jesus." If tol how we a.e. always asking God to please give us a blessing, oit someone will have to tell us to say, "Thanks." He told the story of how a mother had steugrled day in and day out, year after year and reared a successful family, the children all out in the world, busy making their way, when the mother took sick and as the end was drawing near, they all came and the oldest son took his mother in his army kissed her and said; "You have been good and great, to us Mother." The mother looked up and in a husky voice of death, said, "You never said so before." He said, we ought to express our gratitude before the end is so near; let others know we care—The same is true of our thankfulness and gratitude to God. He said, we pray for sunshine and the bright side of life but we complain about the cloud and arm; if the world had all sunshine it would become a desert where nothing grew, and just what is true with the earth is true in our lives: if the bright side lasted always, our lives would become a waste place or desert and would not grow righteous and divine things. He told of the berry that grew in Africa, called the taste berry that made ever, thing taste sweet and delicious and the Africans would eat this first, and everything that he would eat after that would taste delicious. Gratitude is the taste-berry for God's blessings if we first eat of it, then everything that God gives us will taste sweet and delicious. He told of a New Hampshire Farmer, who saw enough in a young man, to send him through school when he had finished in American College, he had won a scholarship in Europe, he packed his trunk, bought his ticket, and was about to sail when he received a message that this farmer was down sick and no one to gather the crop. He sold his ticket at a discount and went to the farmer and gathered the crop. The next year came and the opportunity came again to this young man as it does to all young men who are grateful, and he went and made good. Most of us would have written a long, and beautiful letter, expressing our regrets in the finest of languages, but we would not have shown our gratitude through this sacrifice, that we really cared. God wants us to sacrifice to show our gratitude; sacrifice some of our best pleasures that we may be able to give the glory of our lives to Kingdom building. He said we must make a positive sacrifice or there is no real offering. We must give up pleasures to better use our lives in our community to show thankfulness. Another picture was of a poor mother who had worked and sacrificed to send her daughter to college (going without the necessities of life for herself) but decided to surprise the daughter by going to the college to see her daughter and when she reached the college (clean but not stylishly dressed) the daughter wanted to disown the mother, at first refusing to come down to see her mother though she had seen her mother coming up the walk; and when she did come down, asked her mother why did she come there to disgrace her. There were other thoughts equally true and touching. As a whole, it was Five Cents Per Copy SOUTHWEST BOARD HOLDS GREAT MEETING Calvary Baptist Church, Nov. 19. 20, 1925, was the place and time of one of the most instr: Meetings in the history of the orn a on.

LIL AND ADULT TOP- IC—Fulfillment of His Mission. 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.

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.

HOLDER. they visited the Rosenwald school which is being erected in Wake County, and commented favorably on the type of building that is being erected there. It is a modern seven-teacher brick building. 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. ARKANSAS WHITE FARMERS HELD FOR NIGHT RIDING. ARKANSAS WHITE FARMERS HELD FOR NIGHT RIDING.

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.

CENTRAL 132 N. Walnut --- 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." HOUSE BON IM HOUSTON VOTES 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.

We reserve the the right to reject any matter for publication.—Notify us at once, when you fail to receive your paper. 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.
