Nor were those who came disappointed, for the very first item of information that was given out from the platform, after the customary opening, was that a wireless message had been received from the Hon. Marcus Garvey, founder and leader of the civil rights movement, who was on the high street on route home, and expects to speak in Liberty Hall on July 19, 19 and 20. The news was received by the audience with great joy and delight, and quickly it spread to the crowds on the outside who could not get in, and from them to others throughout Harlem. At once it became the general topic of conversation, and doubtless will be until the indomitable, plucky leader once more stands on term-firma in the great metropolis of the Western Hemisphere, where the propaganda of the world movement that now bears his name, and of which he is the leader, began, and from which he has spread to other regions of the world. The "doubting Thrasseus," who were hoping against hopes that he would not be able to return, and that the organisation might thus become greatly hindered in its further progress soon ran under cover and disappeared and now are trying to count themselves among the "I told you eow." The meeting tonight opened with the customary religious service of congregational singing of anthem and prayer, followed by all repeating the Twenty-third Psalm, after which the High Chancellor, the Rev. G. E. Stewart, the presiding officer, offered a special President-General. Then followed the musical program, the Liberty Choir and the Black Star Line Band performing their parts well. Mr. Samuel sang a baritone song. Madame Fraser-Robinson was the soloist, one of his numbers being a special song composed by Mrs. William, of Kandala City. Mr. a supporter of the U. M. L. A. who is on a visit to New York, and who spoke at Library Hall one evening the choir song is entitled. The Governer Bibl of the work, the words of the chorus running thus "How happy we shall be To sail across the sea. On Griess's ship of Liberty." The competition was loudly applauded, the honour using divided between the composer and Madame Robinson. The High Chancellor was the first abolition of the evening and, after an interruption, the Governer, head in earnest from his articles that applauded in a rebellion made by Mr. George L. Clyde, secretary of the American Missionary Society, in which the writer sought to convey that a change had come about in the Negro race that in revolution it is psychotherapy, since the color ```markdown ``` man is now in revolt against all customs of law that assign him a place of permanent inferiority. Prof. Wm. H. Ferris, editor of the Negro World, followed Dr. Stewart, and laid emphasis upon the belief that is rapidly becoming universal, that the prestige and standing of the Negro is increasing, and the success of the great movement represented by the U. N. L. A. He prided Garvey for the great work he had done in inaugurating the movement, and said he had gathered above him the most brilliant galaxy of Negro orators that have ever identified themselves with any united entity of the race. But eloquence and authority, he said, cannot solve the Negro problems with any unified entity of the race. But eloquence and authority, it is backed up by a practical project, such as the Black Star Line and the Negro Factories Corporation. He read part of an article from a Texas magazine which endowed to ridicule the action of the colored people of Tulsa in attempting to protect and defend one of their own, which led to the recent race riot there. The Professor was the author severely to by making historical references to advise that the Negro had done great things in advance of Columbus, and the great progress he has made and is making in civilization and in education. Rev. Fred. A. Toota, Speaker in Convention, the last speaker, dwell almost wholly upon the expected early return of Mr. Garvey, and made an aloquent plea that the members of the Association prepare themselves to accord him a royal, yet dignified home on his arrival back to New York, one beating to all the world that Negroes honoring and showing respect to their leader. He roasted those who have been hoping for the failure of the movement and the mum-return of Garvey, and said some things among them without minning of words. Such of those who were present must have been made to feel very uncomfortable under his lively invective, and were right when the meeting adjourned, made several appeal to all friends of the movement, and congratulated to be tendered to Mr. Garvey an unquainted subdue. This brought a voluntarily response of nearly desperate present, who came forward and made a liberal contribution toward the expulsion of the proposed toward. Following this the meeting closed, with every one in a happy frame of mind, and elated over the glad tidings that had been heard.

N. I. A. CONVENTION The Second Great Convention of the Negroes of the World Is Called to Meet at Liberty Hall, 120 West 138th Street, New York, on August 1 to August 31, 1831 FELLOW MEN OF THE NEGRO RACE GREETINGS In order to make this convention as great a success as the first, held on late August, the Universal Negro Improvement Association is requesting all Negro communities, societies, lodges churches, fraternities and newspapers to send delegates to this convention. The task of organising the four hundred million Negroes of the world is grateful and requires the combined wisdom of all our forces. The entertainment and carnival given in Liberty Hall on July 4 was one of the most novel and pictureursa afairs ever seen in the hall, and despite the intolerably hot weather there was a record-breaking audience that swelled and fanned itself good-humorously throughout the evening. The entertainment was in the nature of a paper costume concert and carnival, but it was held in the Black Star Line Band, Prof. Wm Iles, director, which was most excellently rendered, and was followed by a tenor solo by Mr. Pratt; instrumental dust by Miss Cynthia and Fannie Davis; soprano solo by Mme. Frazer Robinson; Hawaiian dance by Miss Martha Bryan; eccentric comedian, Professor Quinn. Every number evoked applause, and, notwithstanding the intense heat, Miss Bryan the dancer, and Professor Quinn, the imitable comedian, were called back several times by the audience and encouraged to work for these clever artists, but they were game and responded each time to the great satisfaction of the audience. This part of the program over, Dr. D. H. Stewart, master of ceremonies, announced that the carnival presentation would take place. The judges, Mrs. Lillie Walter, Mrs. Sharpeon Young, Mrs. Mary Johnson, Thaddeus Hines and Dr. H. Stewart, will take places on the platform and the master of ceremonies announced by number the twenty-sight contestants for the three prizes to be awarded to the best and most appropriately costumed persons participating in the contest. The costumes were all of paper, and the costumes were pretty and attractive, many of them beautiful in design and color effects. As the contestants passed in review before the judges their good points were noted. Each contestant took some special character, thus there was a clown, bride, bridesmaid, American beauty, sunflower, vamp, silkworm, Japanese, tropical night, Indian, Phyllis Wheaty, Hawaiian maiden, peacock, newsgirl, sweet pea, etc. Special attention was paid by the judges to the bearing, naturalness, grace, style, and accuracy of the character represented. The prizes given were $10 in gold, first prize; $9 in gold, second prize; and $3, third prize which was increased to $4. $3 prize which to the two contestants who were tied, the devil and fairy, whose costumes were THE LYNCHING RECORD FOR FIRST 6 MONTHS 1921 8 send the following information concerning lynchings for the first six months of this year. I find correspond to the records compiled by the Department of Records and Research of the Tuskegee Institute, Monroe N. Work in charge, that in the first six months of 1221 there were 88 lynchings. This is 26 more than the number 12 for the first six months of 1820, and 7 more than the number 29 for the first six months of 1819. Of those lynched, 8 were whites and 64 were Negroes. Two of the latter were women. Eleven of those put to death were charged with the crime of rape. The states in which lynchings occurred and the number in each state are as follows: Alabama, 1; Arkansas, 4; Florida, 4; Georgia, 8; Kentucky, 1; Louisiana, 2; Mississippi, 10; Missouri, 1; North Carolina, 2; South Carolina, 1; Tennessee, 1. Yours very truly, R. R. MOTON, Principal. TRAVEL NOTES Clemanton, a Garden Spot of New Jersey—The Philadelphia Division—The Citizen's Bank On the eve of the Fourth of July I sought to escape the heat and indulge in the city because it is the country. As we arrived we saw a large snowoon and saw people in countrys town sitting under trees fanning on the ground in the shade of the trees. I imagined how hot it was. I say "immarined" designedly, because sitting by the open window of a moving train I felt a breeze. Upon arriving at Camden I rode ten miles to Clemmont, N. J.; a thriving country town with a large, attractive park and boarded a jitney for Hickentown, three miles away, where a few colored families resided with a small church and schoolhouse. Soon we reached Clemmont Heigh. The driver informed me that its section was the highest land between Philadelphia and Atlantic City and that whatever breeze was stirring reached this section. I was driven to the Howard place, which consisted of an estate of 820 acres, most of it forest land, with a few acres under cultivation. It was owned by Mr. B. J. Howard, a colored man from Tennessee, in whose veins coursed Indian blood. The mistress of the place was Mrs. B. J. Howard. (Continued on page 3) SERVEY SENDS CABL RDING GREAT U. N. MUSIC STORES TO FEATURE NEGRO MUSIC NASHVILLE. Tennessee. It has just been learned through the chairman, Prof. H. H. P. Johnson, of the local Committee of Arrangements, that all things are now in readiness for the coming of the National Association of Negro Musicians which is to meet in this city on July 28, 77 and 22. The first days' session will be held in the spacious auditorium of the Mt. Olive Baptist Church, Rev. J. B. Ridley, pastor. Other meetings are to be held on the campus of Pike University, the institution which has added so much musical development for the Negro. Mr. Johnson also let it be known today that the music stores of Nashville have agreed to "feature" the compositions of Negroes during the entire week that the national association is in session. This will be "something new under the sun," but it is only one of the many agreeable surprises that the Nashville musicians have in store for the visitors. Not only the music showcased it has been encouraged that the Nashville musicians sing music in any form whatever will be requested to "feature" the music of Negro composers during the week of the association. Teachers, preachers and all persons who have opportunity to do so will be called upon to use their influence in any way possible to help create among the people of our race a broader appreciation of the works of Negro composers. It is hoped that make this a national movement. BLACK CROSS NURSES AND LEGIONS OF PHILADELPHIA WIN LAURELS IN PARADE PHILADELPHIA July 8.—The Black Cross Nurses and the legions of the Philadelphia Division of the U. N. 2. A. participated in the Fourth of July parade, and were cheered to the echo. The Philadelphia Record made special mention of them, and this is what it said under a special caption: "Catered Nurses Make Mile. Fill. "Make examples in their guilty counsellors test a touch of guilt in the parade. Notable in the parade were Nigro organization, which turned out in the style. All along the lil' apache greeted the 'Black Cross Society' all organization of colored nurses. The rear of the parade was taken up with a troop of mounted braces chained led by Lieutenant Bushler." The recent arrival in this country of Mrs. Samuel John Ross, wife of the late President, S. J. Rose at the College of West Africa, Hue, Turia, Indie, brings to mind the ultimately damnible punishment by choice in the end of one of the most moral and wretful memorials of the most President Rose, daughter of the President was identified with the Hagar publication of three widely, expansive parts of the world, and in each one outstanding and constructive personality. He was born in the United States, South Dakota, graduated in 1843 and entered the University. During his college years he pursued those qualities. He leadership which have made the name of Hue famous among his pupils. He twofolded. He possessed. He delivered the university. He w. Washington, D.C., the United States, and Valley Park, Calif., the United States, during his career as the President of the golf club of the country, in 1940, and the international golf champions of Switzerland and Switzerland of Chicago, the United Meadow Park w. Thomsonville of Chicago, in March 1940, also in 1940, the first year he joined the world golf to help his political preparation with the practical work of an international golf course, under the direction of one of his former presidents who had played golf at the dispensary in 1915. In this year he wore the "Mall of Golf" rose, called "the referee," at United States where he did golf, and lived medical until 1951 when he was appointed medical minister to the appointed president of the National Golf Association of the United States, where he was appointed president of the Board of Golf, holding as the chair the 1951 Golf Association of the United States. Minerals Preparations (Continued from page 11) Cavation Salt. Carver, at sea." (Long continued applause.) This is a wireless message sent to us from Kirk Excellence at sea; therefore, K-dan announce tonight that a wave from tomorrow night (Monday we shall have a public reception for the President-General. Renewed apologies). Now, this time we are going to have a military reception—a high-class reception no little thing; a reception full of dimity, this being the first time any great leader has let us and remained away for nearly five months and will come back to us after so long an absence. We must do our utmost to honor him upon his return, and let everyone know that the time has come for Negroes to honor their leader. (Great Aptitude.) The whole world is speaking about this great man, Marcos Garvey—every nationality in the world, every member has written something about him, and in fact, everywhere, nothing is being held in any public place that something is not said about the rising of the Negro. I have a magazine in my hand that I want to read to you a portion of What I shall read was written by George L. Caffy, Secretary of the American Business Society. He says, It would seem as though we are always facing a crisis. But it must be apparent to everyone that a real crisis in race relations is here. The Negro race has gone through a change in its psychology that is truly revolutionary. The old cunning slave spirit has gone (Applauses). He no longer depicts his race or the poles of his skin (Applauses). He no longer believes that his salvation or future lies in getting an ear away from his kin as he can. He may still believe that the white race is entirely superior, but he also believes that his own race is potentially as great (Applauses). He came back from the recent war with his lioness thick upon him, and he confronts the world with the challenge, too: an man. (Applauses). In a day he has emerged into race conglomeration, a race pride, and a race faith that is more than revolutionary; it is both revolutionary and rebellious. The colored man is in open revolt today against every custom of law which against him a place permanently ingrams. He is in revolt against that theory of education which has planned to keep the Negro in his place—that of fashion of wood and carvings of wood, of washers and servants of the white coat and Pulman cap, and all men even no longer hear the African and Native Gods. He is in open revolt against that theory of democracy, which opposes the ballot, both civil and military, and the throne, to the white man who can resist only the white, black and shut it in the face of the most cultured men. He demands to have respect to all men educated, educated and politically educated men, with the aim to attain to and express the highest type of character, and govern his own race. All of this is immediately and almost genuinely estimated in the movement organized under the leadership of Marus Gavry (Applauses). You cannot send the articles on Gavry in the Diocesan and Sunday's World's Work without being started by the radical change of race leadership from Booker to Washington to Marcus Gavry; the one the educational evolutionists, the other the political and industrial revolutionists; the one concerning his role in the patient; and to attain their rights by education and industrial service, the other declaring that politics is at an end and (laughter); and that human rights must be won by organized force. No Anglo-Saxon can read those Declaration of Rights found by that black assembly last summer and not like object for they are the simplest rights won by an revolutionary accenture in the English Chant and the Declaration of Independence; nor can any student of history doubt that any people so determined will arrive at me that goal in God's own good word. Pilgrims must also walk with us, as con- quired, to admire the stand, that the Moor- man took that. Alphonse in that Moor- manation of Blighta and the whole world is looking on and will think the man, however, ennounced he may be, who does not join this movement, as Appearance. For this is the only movement. Throughout the universe that is calling the Moorages together to take a stand for themselves. They call us very plainly that Booker T. Wash- mane said that he would walk with nature. We had been walking all these years with patience, and what he gave us was? Sawyer Carver came on the mount, standing upon the highest mountain, the world, and afterno- and nights. "Pegweson is longer must we wait, because we longer must we be. The Negro World is very desirable of placing copies of the paper in the hands of subscribers and agents. In the very nature of the circumstances, it must be obvious to our subscribers and agents that it is in our own best interest to do so, and we are putting forth every effort to this end. We are entirely dependent upon the post offices throughout the country for the transmission of papers through the malls. Unfortunately, we exercise no pencil control over the post offices. We never complaints are received in this office of the non-recipient of papers we take the matter up with the Postmaster at New York, who invariably informs us that after some investigation he finds that the papers are being received satisfactorily. Of course, we know only too well that the Post Office Department is not infallible, and very often packages containing the Negro World are unreasonably delayed in some year offices or allowed to miscarry. On the other hand, agents and subscribers should be careful to ensure that names and addresses, giving streets and numbers, where ordering papers or submitting subscription. Whenever laws are still free delivery or post office box give the numbers in order information. When your name and address are plausibly your name, given them typed written or printed, it necessarily but unite our forces and demand what is our duty by right!" (Loud applause). And I can tell you, as a fact, that the moment that the Negro race learns to be thricity; the moment the Negro race learns to have economic ambition, the day will dawn when the Negro will rise to the highest standard of the world, when the world will honky-tonk and accord him equal justice; equal opportunity. But we cannot do it without we are united as one people; and when we are united as a people) when the blood of your brother down in the fourth cries out for vengeance, and it fills the heart of every Negro with a feeling that that wrong must be avenged, these atrocities will cease. They continue on now only because the Negro is not entirely united, but when once we are solidly united, they will stop these oppressions, because they will know that there is a nation behind us. This is your time; this is your opportunity. The world is looking upon us, and if we fail the fault will be our fault. But I am sure that we cannot—that we will not fall. Simply sitting down and clapping are certainly good things. Let every man stand to his post and do his own work, and we shall be more than conquerors. We are looking forward to the coming of another convention, the greatest in the history of the Negro face. You have heard what Mr. Caddy said about the convention here last summer. They are expecting great things from us this year. And do you not believe, deep down in your souls, that we shall attain to greater heights—do you believe that? (Cries of, "Tell!") Hold fast, then! You have had your crown. Let no man take it from you. It is in your own hands. The destiny of the race, the progress of the race is in your own hands. Do you know that though we boast of our civilization, those men who were born and remain in Africa are better off than we are! And I pray God that the time will come when, with outretreathed hands, they will welcome us under the leadership of the great and fearless Marcuss Garvey, with these dignified men (referring to the members of the African Legion sitting in seats directly in front of the rostrum) marching in front of him, carrying the banner of the Black, the Red and the Green. I think I can picture him now in my mind's eye. I see him marching on, after stepping out of the ship and touching foot for the first-time on the shores of Africa. Others are marching on before him, and others again are marching behind him, to take the land that God has given us by right. I repeat: Let us hold mast. Let us stick together, and do not attempt to look behind upon the past, but towards the heights above us, and in God's own vine, and bring under our own vine and fig tree, and no man shall make mine grisha. Professor Perrie Speaks THE NEGRO WORLD. SATURDAY. JULY 16, 1921 set living man of action evolved by the Negro race since the soul of Toussaint I/Ouverture joined its Maker. (Ablause.) I have in my hand an editorial from a Texas paper called the Pitchock. It is interesting as a psychological study of those men in the south who are advocating mob violence. It will show the depth of illiteracy that exists down South. I will not worry you by reading all of it. But I will just be a little of it. It shows what they are thinking about. It says "Tulsa, Okla, has been sowing the wind. Just the other day it reaped the whirlwind. For many years Negro 'arrogance and impudence has been increasing through the State of Oklahoma in Tulsa it was especially noticeable. Finally Negro arrogance became so bold that a few 'prominent' coons of that city armed themselves and went to the county jail demanding the release of another Negro who was being held on a charge of raps. It says again: "How infinitely better it would be if the white man everywhere would deal with the Negro as the white man deals with him in the South—with kindness (sic) but with absolutely no toleration of any species of impudence. Then there would be no race riots. We don't have any of them in the South. We don't have any of them in the South we had trouble with a bunch of 'niggers' soldiers that were shipped into our training camps from the North and East. But they weren't our niggers. They hadn't been raised up right (Laughter). It is a fact, however that we have no such race riots in the South as have been staged lately in Washington, D. C. Boston, Chicago, Omaha, East St. Louis, and Tulsa. Why? We started right. We gave the 'culled' element to understand, a long time ago, what we expected out of them in the shape of good behavior. Now and then a 'bad nigger' develops himself into our special notice. When he does we take him out and kill him. That's all. And that's the last of it. then he goes on to say.—"In the world's six thousand years of history the Negro remained a beast in the woods and didn't even learn to cook his meat. He worshipped fire, thinking it was a god that feasted on dry sticks. The Negro produced no historian even of his own long night of savagery there gleams no star. The Negro through sixty centuries never wrote a book, never composed an opera, never painted a picture, never carved a statue, never sang a song that would grace music's kindly realms. White adventurers trapped him in his house, never escaped, never shipped him in chains to serve the white man in other land, a stroke of political fortune makes him free and equal to the white man in our country, and he has the consumate gall and impudence to want a place at the council board of the white man's civilization. It will never happen in Texas." Commenting on the last quotation from the Texan *Joseph Professor Ferri* showed the importance of the writeregarding the past achievements of the Negro. He said: Professor Bosas was shown that the African was the first man to discover the art of smelting iron. The great research man of Harvard, Professor Weiner, has shown that Negroes discovered America before Columbus did. Now you hear about the great Aztec civilization of Mexico and the great civilization of Peru. This Harvard professor has written a book to be published inside of a year showing that the great civilization of Mexico and Peru came from the Mandingans of Africa. The writer in the Texan paper does not know that in the heart of Africa in the Middle Ages, in Timbuktu, a black civilization flourished. There was a university called the University of Sauber One man, Addernalm Sadi, wrote a history of the Souden. He does not know that another colored man called Aluned Baba was regarded as the greatest character in the Mohammedan world; that before Virginia was settled by white colonists, one man Juan Latimo was Professor of Grammar in the University of Granada. Now a great many of our people—even some of our members in Cincinnati—believe everything they see in the white papers. They are ignorant of their own history, and of their own achievements in civilization. That Texan writer says: "By a stroke of political fortune we secured our freedom." It was, because $00,000 back soldiers fought in the Union cause that the North won out; because had it not been for the Negro troops, Grant would never have won the battle of the Wilderness. That is the doctrine they are teaching the white boys in the South and teaching the black boys in the South—that the Negro never has accomplished anything and never has amounted to anything. Why, do you know that Terence, Rome's greatest poet, was a black man? Ascop, the creator of the world's greatest tableau, was a black man. When black men know what they have accomplished in the past they will have more faith in the future. Why is it that men like DuBois and Bishop Smith and others of their ilk regard Marous Garvey as a dreamer and say he lacks police? it is because he has attempted to do big things in the industrial and commercial world. Some of our so-called leaders have been so hypnotised by the Anglo-Saxon culture and training that they believe that they are inferior; they believe that a man with a black skin cannot do anything big, and when they see a man attempting it they say he is beside himself. One of the features of this movement has been that it has taught black man to respect black men. I say that from my experience when I was in Mentrell, where I went to speak. Usually, in the old days, if a colored man was asked to speak to a colored organization or audience, he found no one awaiting him at the station, but would have to find his way to the hall or to the home; he would have to buy his own ticket and look after everything himself, but from the time I entered Canada until the time I left Canada an automobile was placed at my disposal; even flowers were given to me I was treated as white men treat white men who are trying to do something. That is what the Universal Negro Improvement Association has taught black men. It has taught the Negro not to despise himself because he is black. Races are great in proportion as they are intelligent, not in proportion as they have hard muscles, but in proportion as they are prompted and dominated by a new spirit. And it is because the U N. I. A. has given a new spirit to the Negro race—a spirit of achievement; a spirit of daring, a spirit of manhood—it is because it has reached the words of Terence, Rome's black poet, "I am a man, and nothing that is common to humanity is foreign to me"; it is because it has taught the Negro that just as his ancestors centuries ago by the waters of the Nile laid the foundation of the world's civilization, so in the new era the Negro can come into his own, if he will strive and achieve and will back up his faith and courage by deeds and material resources that it is sweeping the world like a tidal wave. Upon the U. N. L. A. depends the prestige and standing of the Negro race in this twentieth century, because the entire world is looking to see what the Negro can do in organized effort through the U. N. L. A. Hereofore he had produced a scintillating light here, a scintillating light there. But the U. N. L. A. is marshalling and mobilizing these scintillating lights together, and a dame will illumine the horizon, and demonstrate to the world what the Negro can achieve in the new civilization. (Applause.) Speaker Toots Speaks Right Hon. Fred. A. Toots, speaker in convention, was next called upon and delivered one of his characteristic, fary addresses, mingled with wit and pleasantry, and some pointed thrusts at the enemies of the movement. He said, in tart: I am one of those who, when hearing the welcome message of the early return of our great leader, rejoiced. But there are those here and elsewhere who were hoping that he would not return. We, however, had a definite hope and an everlasting, abiding confidence in God that He would bring him safely to the place of salvation. When our prayer has now been answered, for he is now on the briny deep, and in a few more days will be with us once again. Marcus Garvey has not only bought shares in the Black Star Line and helped this great movement with his own money, but he has also shad his blood for it, that the work may go on. And it shall continue, and when the president-general comes, we are asking you to honor and respect him as your leader just as you have been honoring and respecting white men. As white men say that President Harding in Washington must be respected, and they give him a guard of honor to enforce honor and respect, so must black men see that a black man who is leading them on to success be respected and honored. I care not what he has done in the past, thank God he has done enough for this race that we should fall down and make ourselves a carpet for him to walk on in honor and respect. PERTH AMBOY DIV.

CO-OPERATION OF AGENTS For several months we have been carrying a notice in the columns of the Negro World advising agents that papers are malled on Wednesday of each week, consequently orders should be sent to reach this office not later than Friday, one week preceding the date of publication (which is on Saturday), in order to be effective for that date. For instance, an agent wanting to increase or decrease his supply for the issue of July 20 should send his order to reach this office hot later than Friday, July 22. If the order reaches us or on after Wednesday, June 9, the papers would have already been deposited in the mail and we could not recall them. In the matter of increase or additional taxes can be sent, but where there is to be a decrease we can do nothing but make it effective the follow- Speaker Toote Speaks TRAVEL NOTES formerly Mrs. Ardella W. Bond of Philadelphia, who had served Philadelphia efficiently as probation officer and the government as investigator. And I was treated to a series of surprises. I was taken to the home of a prosperous white farmer nearby and quartered for the night. He informed me that as no robbers were around I could sleep with the front door open and get the breezes. How fortunate is the lot of those who live in the country and who do not have to have locked doors and boots and bars in the summer time. Monday morning I returned to the Howard place and for a few moments beaked my eye in the beauty of the place. It stretches. I should judge for a mile in length, and is one-third of a mile in width. As one stands by the cottage and looks north he sees a barn with wagons and carriages around it and grazing cattle and forests beyond. As he looks east and south he sees a spacious grove with wide spreading trees, under which open air dinners can comfortably be served. And beyond he sees clusters of trees. As he looks south he sees a candy valley and beyond turkey houses, chicken coops and a hog pen. And beyond those a luxuriant forest of trees. Meanwhile his brow is fanned by gentle breeze. Mr. Howard, his bright little boy Benjamin, her talented and accomplished daughter Miss Angie Higgins are the occupants of the cottage, Mrs. Maud Jones, of New York, an educational note, who is Mrs. Howard a sister, is visiting her. Soon Mrs. G. F. Blackwell, Miss Josephine Smith, Miss Mary Armstrong and Mr. and Mrs. B. J. Bunn, of Philadelphia, drove up. Mrs. Blackwell is the wife of one of the most distinguished bishops of the A. M. El Zion Church and is herself a speaker of note. Late in the afternoon a dinner was served under a widespread tree about a hundred yards from the house. Those who are accustomed to eating cold storage chicken and eggs and stale vegetables in the city can only imagine how a country dinner of spring chicken recently killed and fresh milk, butter, eggs and vegetables tastes. Meanwhile a gentle breeze is fanning you. While the temperature on that hot Fourth of July ranged between $8 and $8 degrees Fahrenheit, in that grove it ranged between $8 and $7. Being interested in the employment problem, I inquired as to whether colored men could secure employment in that section, and was informed that they could find employment as farmers, carpenters and road builders in the immediate vicinity, or in the foundries of Clameton and Blackwood, which are three miles away. Mr. Howard informed me that he was clearing the forests and cutting up the land into building lots, 150 by 60 feet, either for permanent residents or those who desired summer homes. The Philadelphia Division On Tuesday evening I went to Upper Roxborough, Pa., and spent the evening and part of the next day at the home of Mr. James Dennis, who is a loyal supporter of the U. N. L. A. His two daughters, Miss Martha and Miss Gotta, work in the Berea hosiery factory by day and took the stenographers' course in the Nerea Manual Training School by night. Mr. and Mrs. Dennis are much respected by their white neighbors. And then I visited the U. N. L. A. Building at 1810 South street. Mr. O'H. C. Jerome has recently be placed in charge and has worked wonders in transforming the store into a noat and attractive place. Then I MISS IRIS GERMAIN SKINNER NOW MRS. RICHARD A. KING Miss Iris German Skinner, of 545 Warren street, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Prince A. Skinner, of 545 Third avenue, Brooklyn, in St. Augustine's Church on Sunday, July 1d, at 6:30 P. M. The Rev. George Prater Miller Bannister was maid of honor, and the Misses Ena Hurst, Mildred Reid and Agnes Weeks were the bridesmaids. The flower girls were the Misses Edna Boyce and Cynthia Boyce. Arnold Clark acted as host man for Mr. King. The bride was given in marriage by her brother, Reginald Skinner. She was married to William Boyce, of Brooklyn, and the veil of fulls was held on her coifure by a bandage of orange blossoms, and she carried a shower of white roses and sweet pass. A reception followed the ceremony at the home of the bride's sister, Mrs. Noel Boyce, of 545 Warren street, Brooklyn, which was decorated tastefully with summer flowers and Japanese lanterns specially for the occasion, after a lengthy singlik for their own home. The latter part of the month they will sojourn to Asbury Park to spend their homymony. The presents received were varied, many and easily. Among the guests were Mr. and Mr. Noel Boyer, Mr. and Mrs. Bowen, Mr. and Mrs. W. Flarry and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. R. Doyce, Mr. and Mrs. Edgar Hurst, Mr. C. Chasley, Mr. M. Hida, Mr. and Mrs. R. Doyce, Mr. and Mrs. Edgar Hurst, Mr. N. Griffin, Mr. White, Mr. G. Marquille, Mr. D. G. Porter, Mr. J. Moe, Mr. N. Griffin, Mr. White, Mr. C. Perkins, Miss M. Waters, Mr. C. Archer, Mr. F. Hampton, Mr. R. Smith, Miss M. Waters, Miss M. Bowne, Miss G. Greaves, Miss M. Bowne, Miss Ivie Avis, Miss M. Grinith, Mr. Ward, Miss Lillian Leakey, Miss M. Allyn, Mr. and Mrs. B. Gilles, Mr. and Mrs. J. Skeete, Mrs. W. Grimith, Mr. C. Gibbons we have been carrying a notice in the world advising agents that papers are on each week, consequently ordered to its office not later than Friday, on publication (which is on Saturday that date). For instance, an agent increase his supply for the issue a day to reach this office not later than order reaches us or on after Wednesday would have already been deposited to recall them. In the matter of if it be sent, but where there is to be but make it effective the follow these instructions carefully. WED MONEY ORDERS A Negro World should be addressed walked up one flight and entered the office of Mrs. Estelle Mathewa, the capable and courteous lady president. She with Mrs. Hatcher, head of the Black Cross Nurses, and Mrs. Lewia, formerly lady president of the Cresmont division, were perfecting plans for the big U. N. L. A. picnic in Maple Grove on Monday, July 18. Great crowds are expected from neighboring towns. Then I ascended another flight and found Dr. Lionel Francis, the president; Miss Miaze King, the secretary; Mr. Forbate, the Black Star Line representative; Dr. Hammun, the lectures to the Black Cross Nurse and the three clerks, very busy. Dr. Lionet Briss is brilliant, magnetic, energetic and ambitious and is infusing life and spirit into the Philadelphia division. When he becomes better acquainted in Philadelphia and learns of the ways and customs of the City of Brotherly Love, he will evolve into a real racial leader in Philadelphia. He is making friends for the organization. In the evening we visited the U. N. I. A. meeting in the Salem Baptist Church and heard His Excellency the American Leader, Dr. Eason captivate the audience with his common sense, eloquence, wit and humor. Finally I visited the Citizen's and Southern Bank on the corner of South and Nineteenth street. Major R. R. Wright, Sr. farmer president of the Georgia State College and former Paymaster United States Army, is the president. Dr F G. Jordon, for twenty-five years secretary-treasurer of the Foreign Mission Board of the National Baptist Convention, is vice-president, and Dr. R. R. Wright, Jr. Ph.D. of the University of Pennsylvania, and editor of the Christian Recorder, is treasurer. Already over half a million dollars has been deposited in eight months. The Citizen's Bank is unique, in the fact that, while nearly all of the banks and big business enterprises started by Negroes are started by uneducated men, and nearly all of our successful farmers and business men are uneducated men, it has been started by and is managed by educated men. Its president has had nearly fifty years successful experience as educator, and its treasurer has won laurels as a scholar, sociologist, statistician and editor. A quarter of a century ago Andrew Carnegie discussed the question as to whether educated men can succeed in business. And Dr Dobro T. W. atton and Mr. N. Whitelaw Lewis have questioned the educated Negro's ability to succeed in business. But in business both the educated and the uneducated Negro are in the same boat. They can succeed in a business that they know something about and usually fall in a business that they know nothing about. Rev. J. H. Thomas, the pastor of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, of Landowne and secretary to Dr R. D. Wright. Jr. deserves special commendation. He marries a school teacher, R. P. Winn, and educates her three children. One of her daughters, Mrytle Harris, is an accomplished musician. The other, Miss Lucele Thomas, graduated from the Normal Training School of Washington D. C. this year, ranking among the first ten. I met in the bank Mr. Thomas Wallace Swan, the friend of Mayor John Hampton Moore. Mr Swan is rapidly抬到 the front as a leader. He escorted me to the palatial Hotel Dales. There I met Mrs. Swan and the bright thirty-one-month-old Miss Swan, Mr. Beresford Gales, the broker and promoter, Mr. Melville the secretary of the hotel, Dr Bailey and Major York. Before I left Miss Kathleen Easman and Mrs. Casebay Hayford, of Sierra Leona, stepped into the hotel.

The first prize was won by No. 14, who represented a peacock, second by No. 28, who represented a newagtrl. The third prize was increased and divided equally between No. 31, who represented the devil, and No. 32, who represented a fairy. The judges found it very difficult to reach a decision, as all the contests were very beautiful and attractive. The prize winner, however, had the best of their competitors in naturalness and grace of movement and accuracy of character assumed by 'eah'. We cannot too highly praise all the ladies and gentlemen who participated in this really novel and instructive entertainment, and great credit is due Miss Gwendolyn Campbell, who originated the idea, and gave general supervision to all the arrangements, and to the Grand Chancellor, Dr. George E. Stewart, who also deserves a word of thanks and praise for the splendid manner in which he predeided. The heat had him in its clutches and he used up all his handkerchiefs. But he stuck to the job like death to a debt Indian. Among those who participated was the lady who took the part of viola, the receiving honorable mention. It was a thoroughly enjoyable affair. Everybody seemed to be pleased and satisfied and every one of the judges was alive and doing well at this writing. To Miss Gwendolyn Campbell more than to any one else belongs the full meed of praise for this happy ending of the Glorious Doors, the door receipts of over $200.

We are too near the man in order of time. In ninety-nine cases, out of one hundred we will be either too critical or too equitable, in our estimates of the man and his various attributes. At this time, personal bias is bound to influence our judgments unduly. The power spirit of inquiry should be an attribute to such a character to match with an imperial attitude as to facts, conclusions and consequences. In spite of what I have already stated, the man is to each individual what he or she is in him, for I have always contended that if it is true that things are not what they seem, it is equally true and perhaps what they seem. The latter at least comes nearer the relativity idea than the former. Nearly every week I read with much interest the various letters, comments, etc., pertaining to Garvey and his doings. Many of them do seem more like after dinner speeches than at dinner. I wonder who joins brightly upon the horizon of Nedro afair. However, time will put them in their proper places. fiction, disasters, proximity of phantasms and themes. Garvey's position as a leader with a very large following demands a squared knowledge of economics, politics and sociology, but he knows, but little on these matters. However, his tendency to emphasize the importance of being a great political scientist, neither does he, besides an intellectual bombast. If Garvey, were a deliberate thinner than a proficient philophaeic type of mind, he would have, succeeded so effectively as an activator of race rights. Men of action are, expressive, and, intimidating types, Anial, Nilsson, William James, and Shakespeare all record, the fact that his consequential reading of seeing acts and their consequences vividly and discriminately are those, whose "native hub of resolution becomes stickied over, with the pale cast of thought." Garvey is primarily an organizer and a propagandist. In these fields he is supreme. His traits of an energetic temperament, perseverance, optimism and courage are enviable. In these qualities he is a truly remarkable man. His intelligence, his critics always, in doubt and suspense through this natural gift. His critics—the more harah and stubborn one—speak of him as an amputer and a crook. That is what was said of Jesus and Mohammed. His psychology is more complicated than that. Some say he is trying to run away from the people. Of this I do not know. I doubt it. But many do. I know that he is a man of great ability to which he is now enlisted. Once he dominated the U. N. I. A. movement. Now, while he is the soul of it, he is very much the servant of it. Even Garvey's admirer seems to think he is haughty and an upstart. But I am deeply impressed that pitch is not an appreciable fraction of his natural. He has been lauded and excused out of all proportion, in the most superfluous manner; and in spite of all his superfluous manner, he seems rather humble and modest. The average man with the prestige Garvey enjoys will be an unbearable upstart. With reference to his work and its influence, he has accomplished much. Not only has he engineered business enterprise, but he has intensified the spirit toward business and race patronage. He has quickened the racial confluence of the petty, narrow, conservative, particular line he has accomplished a lasting benefit. His activities have been largely responsible for the breakdown of the petty, narrow, conservative, individualistic and provincial spirit which was once dominant among our people. In place of these vices a more liberal, radical, co-operative and time-taken has taken the ascendancy. Last year Garvey agitation pertaining to Africa has aroused an interest in Africa and matters of culture relating to Africa and the Africans as was never known before. Of course, all of these things were being shaped and brought to a near maturity by Harrison before Mr. Garvey, the most esteemed the scene presents, the ultimate success. He is dependent on training, sound thinking and not rhetorics. Able men are morally needed. In conclusion, the heart-rending scene is that the aba intellectuals of the race are not working under the various activities of the different able and active Negroes working with the motive of furthering the good and welfare of the race, all these activities are decidedly promoting the same given Dream when he opposed Darwin and he was working-out the same principle that interested the Darwinians in the realm of geology. So was Karl Marx working at it in the field of economics. His work are fatalistic. From this there is no concern. HODGE KIRNON. 61 West 129th street. New York. July & HISTORICAL GEOLOGY, MATTER AND ORGANISMS By J. R. AUSTIN: Hilman, Englewood. In this article the author has made to preserve a more even balance and while giving time, part, of the geological field, its own share of attention, to also give weight to the structural one, and to the physical and while this article has as its purpose to supply the authors wants, it is hoped, that it may prove useful to others interested in the science who may have felt a similar need. Although original matter or views problems have been investigated in place of an article, the subject of an article of this nature, must mainly be one of selection of the subject matter from published materials. The material most which the articles are bled has naturally, neatly drawn from so many sources and has become a source of information that it is not easy to render acknowledgment. Matter and Organisms ment and organization. Man, through his body is large compared with the human body is large thing, is after all but microscopic in nature. Finite, circumcised and weak though he is, he yet attempts to fathom the meaning of himself and likewise of all that is about him. He sees the moon, the sun, the myriad of stars in all the glistening splendor of their orderly array, and like the habe that reaches out and longs for the object appearing before his vision, as man through his mental eye, added by the senses, sees the world wander out into the vastness of space, ever observing, ever asking: What is the meaning of all this? Whence has it come? Though he stand face to face with the immutable laws of nature and with eternity itself, his questioning mind still seeks to overstep, the boundaries of its finiteness and strives to comprehend the infinita. Through our senses we perceive nature—the material world and, its extraordinary variety of manifestations—we feel, see, smell, taste, and hear it. Most of it is inert, and though we see that it undergoes change in, part, it feels the world around us. We see the universe. On the earth, however, we note the presence of material bodies which in their consents chemical change manifest life and vitality, the "tinal force" and these bodies are cognizant of the material world surrounding them. They live in it, absorb and change it into their own living substance to other entities, substance on to other entities, their descendants, which are more or less like themselves. The foundational difference between the quick and the dead is that one is endowed with the quality of "irrritability," that is, the ability to undergo some slight alteration in response to equally small alterations in the other. The other is part of the "finished-world" that only to a limited degree responds by chemical and physical change to external and internal agencies. The earth is composed of matter which science recognizes as "therganic" and "organic". The former is lifeless matter, much of which is in the crystal form, and hence it is sometimes referred to as the "Crystal Kingdom". Organic matter on the earth is inert, stable, and difficult to alter, either in the form of single cells or in aggregates of cells, and thus is classified on the basis of its cell structure and mode of nourishment into the "Plant Kingdom" and the "Animal Kingdom". In other words, the entities occurring in the inorganic world are organic matter, which is mental or altered condition, while the bodies of living matter have their substance organized into a mechanism capable of response to external agencies, and are hence called "organisms". Matter, whether of the earth or of the universe, is complex, divisible, relentless, and able by our senses. It can be distorted, moved, broken, comminuted, or otherwise modified, but cannot be produced or destroyed. There are three states in which matter displays itself, the "solid", the "liquid" and the "massive". Matter commonly exists in more or less organized, but cannot be broken up by chemical processes into at least eighty-four elements, without including the unstable and temporary forms involved in radioactive disintegration (uranium and thorium). Each one of these four elements is a kind of matter that cannot be separated from the earth under ordinary, conditions mostly as solids, more rarely as gases, and least often as liquids. These manifestations of living matter are seen even in the simplest of plants and animals, where the individuals are microscopic in size, and the unit is contained in a single cell. However, living matter is more commonly found in larger organisms, cells live together and form the unit of individual, that is in the plants and animals as usually understood. All these forms are said to have a "body" consisting of unit masses or cells which in the higher forms of plants, run into countless numbers. It is impossible for these cells to remain in the same body, and they become diversely related to the outer world, to food, to one another, and so on. Division of labor, consequent on diversity of condition, is thus established in the nimn. In some cells one kind of activity predominates, in other, second, in still others a third, and this division of labor is called differentiation of structure which is called "differentiation." The functions, cellular structure, and development in plants and animals are essentially alike, and there is no absolute distinction between them. These two groups are organic functions in the detailed or functional function; they have developed, along with independent, trunk forms since early in the earth's history. (W. A. AUSTIN) Please allow me space for the publication of the letter of the late Division have, at last been visited by the dread mourners. The top hand of death engrossed our grief and quickly snatched from our midst a sister, Mrs. Bessie Kirkland, who childless and the perfect infant eleven days old. It the undersigned, had the privilege to witness her last moments on earth; and also to commit her remains. To the grave. Within ten minutes after death our mission board at Liberty Hall told the news to the community and within two days was filled with officers and members. Our esteemed president was to be seen and heard receiving the different offers to their duties in connection with the funeral ceremony. It was gratifying to note how our members turned out to do reverence to the corpses and to the procession was to be seen wending the way to grand Liberty Hall under the staircase of the dead marched by our local band to the chaplain in his robes, and the service according to the Universal Negro Institutional, commonwealth symposium. "This day my God so Gods. These the procession again formed, and proceeded to the graveyard. Dines, has never been witnessed such a sublime place. It speaks well towards the spirit of love and unity that is alive. Kindness is kind and unselfish. God is kind. Thank God for Garvey.

THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JULY 16, 1921 civilization. While the ancestors of Editor Smith were painting their bodies with wood and offering up human sacrifices on Dreadful altars, the blacks of Ethiopia and Egypt were basking in the sunshine of civilization. According to Prof. Frank Boas of Columbia University, the Negroes of Africa first discovered the art of smelting iron. So much for student; now for medieval history. In the middle ages the Saxonois people perfected a high degree of Arabian civilization in Timbertoo. They developed the University of Sankore and produced celebrated scholars. One of them, Ahmed Baba, was known throughout the Arabian world as the fount of erudition. Now mark this especially, Editor Smith—Abderrahmen Sadi did the very thing you said a Negro never did. He wrote an Epic of the Soudan, a history of the Soudan. So remarkable was this hook that it was translated into French. Then before Jamestown was settled by colonists, Juan Latino, a Negro, was professor of grammar and Latin in the University of Granada; and Miguel Kaparzine, another Negro, was Master of Theology in a Portuguese school in India. We will say in passing that the Portuguese broke up the University of Sankore and drove away the scholars. Prof. Weiner, of Harvard University, has shown that black men discovered America before Christopher Columbus did and taught the Indians how to grow peanuts, sweet potatoes and tobacco. A book by the same professor is now in course of preparation, showing that the famous Aztec civilization of Mexico and the famous civilization of Peru had their origins among the Mandingans of Africa. The Mandingans and the Lundi Empire were the two great empires of Africa during the Middle Ages. The Mandingans for a thousand years dominated territory as large as the German Empire. Vorathak, the Hungarian composer, stated that America's only contribution to the world's music was the plantation melodies and jubilee songs of the slaves. We have by no means exhausted the achievements of the Negro in ancient and modern times. We have only let in a few rays of light into the darkened mental Interior of Editor Smith and shown him the extent of his ignorance in things Afric. MR. KIRNON ON GARVEY THE Hon. Marcus Garvey is than any living Negro. He is today. He is more discuss of African descent. Usually supervised in extolling or critizing him. Mr. Hugh Kironn, not because w but because it shows how Marcus who is neither a Garveyite nor an observer on the side line. It is a struggle to know what the onlook struggle has made upon the outside. Mr. Kironn says: "I am in a says that he lacks poise. Poise is a how the editor of the Negro Word type akin to Socrates and Emerson far-fetched basis which would adn fied together from a biological view regards proximity of kind and race and promises, etc." We will state that we never a century B. C., a Yankee function and a Negro functioning in the t similar in psychic characteristics a to show was that the same kind Marcus Garvey was levelled At we mentioned. If Mr. Kironn will Plato's Apology, he will observe how regarded him. In our humble opinion the continent and build an empire of Cecil Rhodes was not regarded ideas were throbbing in his m Garvey be charged with lacking CORRESP THE Hon. Marcus Garvey looms larger on the world's horizon than any living Negro. He is the most dynamic force in Negro life today. He is more discussed pro and con than any other man of African descent. Usually superlative and adjectival attributes are used in extolling or critizing him. Elsewhere we print an article from Mr. Hugh Kirron, not because we agree with everything said in it, but because it shows how Marcus Garvey looks to an outside observer who is neither a Garveyite nor an opponent of the movement, but an observer on the side lines. It is often helpful to those engaged in a struggle to know what the onlookers think and what impression the struggle has made upon the outside world. Mr. Kirron says: "I am in perfect accord with Dr. DuBois who says that he lacks poise. Poise is alien to his psychology. I fail to see how the editor of the Negro World could classify Garvey as a mental type akin to Socrates and Emerson. This can only be done in the same fetched basis which would admit a lizard and a cat as being classified together from a biological viewpoint. This sort of classification disregards proximity of kind and racial ideals and his flamboyant hopes and promises, etc." We will state that we never stated that a Greek born in the fifth century B. C., a Yankee functioning in the nineteenth century A. D., and a Negro functioning in the twentieth century A. D. were exactly similar in psychic characteristics and temperament. What we desired to show was that the same kind of criticism which was levelled at Marcus Garvey was levelled at Socrates, Emerson and the other men we mentioned. If Mr. Kirnon will read Xenophon's Memorabilia and Plato's Apology, he will observe how the critics of the Greek philosopher regarded him. In our humble opinion the ambition to sail ships, develop a continent and build an empire does not indicate a lack of poise. Cecil Rhodes was not regarded as lacking poise because colossal ideas were throbbing in his mind. Why, then, should Marcus Garvey be charged with lacking poise? CORRESPONDENCE A RINGING MESSAGE FROM HAVANA, CUBA Please permit me through the columns of your most valuable paper, the Negro World, to transmit to the doubling Thomases where he may be found, the determination of the New Negro. Be it known, that the New Negro does not appreciate any other counsel but Almighty God and the Universal Negro Improvement Association. We who are a proud of our color, race and motherhood have no apology to shake in declaring Africa first, last and all the time. We do not cars to be sold how, when and where to invest our hard-worked dollars, as we have been having 500 years of blind investment. Ye that hath eyes to see let him see us shine in race unity, let him see our "one God" on aim! one betrayer! let him know that we stand for "Pro Dao Africa" on justice," and let him see Ethiopia, stretching forth his hands unto God. Let us thank you for having brought the U. N. L. to its existence, or the Negro, as a race, which have been a steppe. Three hundred years of emigration has caused the New Yorker to, "Tet me take a trial. Let me have an administrator, who looks for me to administrate it, in the true sense of the word, for the Negro, and all these." And, because, we are blessed of such an administration, we shall be able to trust the Negro, will be able to express no more for the other fellow. We shall all our knowledgeable to be. To the Blacks, this will make all our corporations, and will make the black who can can't see from the black who can not impede our progress. The following is a sample of text from a document that appears to be a legal or official document. It is not intended to be a complete transcription of the entire document but rather a snippet that reflects the content. --- **Legal Document** [Signature] [Date] [Title] [Abstract] [Body] [References] [Signature] [Date] [Title] [Abstract] [Body] [References] The Negro World does not knowingly accept questionable or fraudulent advertising. Readers of the Negro World are especially requested to invite our attention to any failure on the part of an advertiser to adhere to any representation contained in a Negro World advertisement. LEXANDER POPE is not as philosophical as Wordworth or Browning; he does not turn out lines as beautiful as Shakespeare, Gray, Shelley, Reata or Tennyson; he lacks the subtle imagination of Milton and the impassioned eloquence of Byron. But pre-eminently he he the gift of distilling the wisdom of the ages in a couple of lines that are faultless in form and can always be capital. Where ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to be wise" is one of these lines. These reflections occurred to us after reading an editorial on the Tale of the Exhibition, a paper edited by Wilford B. Smith, in Dallas, Texas. We published the editorial in this issue of the Negro World in order that our readers may know the state of mind of the champions of mob violence and badness in the sunny South. We can say to himself that Wilford Smith is not the Wilford Smith with a Guild Guild of the U. N. T. A., but an Anglo-Saxon. You can inform me that Smith, of Texas, takes the cake. He is ignorant and pious in the form. He reveals in ignorance, just as a hog might hide in the barn. He probably is a descendant of those famous authors, Ishmael Gates said that they were too dull and should be taken with some love. What be he will do in the invocation of Mr. Smith, of Texas, we may say, in regard to his statements. He states that "a few minutes ago, a man armed themselves and went to the county, by sending the release of another Negro who was being held on the premises, to the county, by an unimplicated lie. The official statement of the Negro youth who impudent and the white child was victorious. He states that he stepped on her foot and that he hastened her in passing. A yellow letter spotted him of attempted rape in sell papers and rake the corn. If Mr. Smith does not know these facts, he is to be pitied. Mr. Smith says: 'How infinitely batter it would be if the white man, a man more would deal with the Negro as the white man he will him in the South, with kindness, but with, absolutely no toleration, the presence of impunity.' We wonder what Mr. Smith's intentions and limitations are. Probably he thinks it is necessary to defend himself and his man, and that when a colony threatens he is a committed desire to be treated as a man and thus as a manless he is impudent and deserves being strung up in a hood with bollets or burnt alive. Mr. Smith was quite Mr. Smith's glorious ignorance. Mr. Smith was also paid a thousand years of history, the Negro re- realized a heart in the woods and didn't even learn to cook his meat. Mr. Negro produced his historian, even of his own long night of enjoyment in the army. The Negro through sixty centuries has written a book never composed an opera, never painted a pic- casso, Gloria del Arte never sang a song that would grace a living realm. White adventurers trapped him in his native country only a few years ago, shipped him in chains to serve the abolitionists in America, a nation of political fortune makes him a criminal world.

DU BOIS MISLED, OR IS HE MISLEADING? By REV. GRISTIAN A. HARRIGAN, 229 W. 143d St. New York Scanning the pages of history, sacred or profane, we have found that in every place among the living, both in the human and animal arena, the presence and essentiality of "leadership." In the life and achievements of all nations of the world, great and small, leadership has been a potent factor. Even in the heavenly bodies, according to teaching, it is ever present. It was through leadership, and good leadership at that, that the United States was able to make of itself a great nation. It was under leadership, not of the Dau Bois do-less and criticize-more type, but like the Honorable Marcus Garvey, in the person of George Washington, race-conscious, daring and resolute, that this nation was able at the psychological moment to deliver itself from the mighty grip of land-thirsty, slave-making and oppressing England. And, in the face of overwhelming odds, with formidable floats and seasoned armies at their command, it was also able to put the enemy to flight, sink their shipa melt the statue of King George V. into bullets, and use those bullets against their oppressors. All nations of the world reflect the power of leadership, but when we want to talk about the results of forceful and accomplished leadership, we point to Japan, the United States, England and Abyssinia. If there is ever a race or disorganised nation of people who needed good, efficient and caring leadership, it is the colored people of the Western Hemispheres. John Brown, a white man, seeing this need, took a hand. General Sherman, another white man, seeing the need, also took a hand; but what we really need is good leaders of our own race. During the past semi-century many colored leaders have into view. Some did well, others MEANT well. On Frederick Douglas we had absolutely no skill. On Booker Washington we shouldn't have say. The latter had a good program, which had it been carried out by the people, would have added much to their present status. They would have more mechanics, manufactures and agriculturists, with those in higher professional calline, which would have automatically brought to us the state of independence, financially and otherwise, which we so grave. When the Hon. Dr Du Bols came along with his book entitled "The Soul of Black Folks," we thought sure we had our hand on the right man. There is no question as to Dr Du Bols' intellectual ability, but there is much question as to his achievements. Apparently Mr. Du Bols has taken an inimical stand against the Hon. Marcus Garvey. Having been swept off his feet by Garvey's sudden appearance and great fame, and feeling, perhaps, a touch of what one may call "fame jealousy," he has spared no pain in criticising that honorable gentleman. He made all kinds of charges against him. First, it was because Garvey was a West Indian. Then, especially of late, it is because he lacks poise and business ability. In The Negro World of July 2 issue Editor W. E. Ferris launched a masterly, well-directed and well-constructed counter-attack at the phi- cophical wizard, which must have sent him under. But, if it didn't and if there is any of him loft, I want to call his undivided attention to the following: Dr Du Bois: Dear sir:—When taking into con- sideration the wonderful education which you received, the con- sideration which you have had, and the "pup- ture" and "business ability" which you ought to have, what have you done for your race? Take this question home to your heart. Ponder and pray over it day and night, until you can answer it way down in your soul. Of course, I know you have given to us many good books. Among them, "The Soul of Black Folks" and "Dark Water," for which you will be long remembered and through which the world will see the height to which intellectually and otherwise the rise can attain. You have also given us a magazine called "The Grill" second to none in the world. You have championed our cause along many lines and on many platforms. But does all this measure up to your opportunities, plus your intelligence? Now, if you "business ability" is an estimated and Mr. Garvey's as you estimate, it then Mr. Garvey has advanced fifty years ahead of himself and you have turned fifty years back. Now, of the time I was as the organic lawyer of the business people, which means, which means, already seriously "plaintiff" of vice of the firm with the Black Belt Law firm, which gives both parties and their arrangements with the firm will be willing to make a deal. back his mission: on the page, it cannot fail not as as long as the organization that stands, and that I wish to stand for. Cherished was financial troopers, some of whom are veterans of the world war, the Black Sea Division, the Hunter Corps, the farmland military and naval seals, and one if you have not been witnessed by the Honorable Maren Garvey beyond corporations. The team have to have remember that this business is not run by Mr. Garvey alone, but by other men of unquestionable ability, second to none in the world. I cite some of them for your encouragement: Messrs. Johnson, Smith, Kiligan, Stewart, Eason, Gordon Brooks, Galas, Perria, Thompson, Garcia, McDulra, Paul, Yearwood, Plummer, Jones, Price, Frends, Seal, Robinson and a host of others too numerous to mention. If all these men put together haven't police nor business ability, no one has. My personal advice to you is that instead of fighting Mr Garvey you link up yourself with him and these men mentioned above, helping to fight this great battle against the "white beasts" in the form of human beings who have been robbing and destroying us all these years, and who seem to have set out for our perpetual destruction. Whether you come with us or not, we are going ahead under the banner of the Red, the Black and the Green, following the man you criticize. Our motto is "A Redomed Africa," with our citizens respected and protected all over the world. And we are auro of victory. THE U. N. L. A. DOES NOT DO THE WORK OF THE N. A. A. C. P. Editor Negro World— Permit me to answer a little statement round in the last issue of the "Crisis," where the Universal Negro Improvement Association is severely criticized because it did not do certain things that the Crisis thought it should have done for the sufferers of Oklahoma. Now, whether the statement is true or untrue of this, I have no doubt that it is the correct explanation for the Advancement of Colored People did its duty when it took in the sufferers from white violence. We are not organized primarily for purposes of that kind. We are giving the ounce of prevention, while, of course, the N. A. A. C. P. must be contented to give the pound of cure. The U. N. L. A. gives the ounce of prevention, therefore the N. A. A. C. P. must give the pound of cure. The business of the N. A. A. C. P. is to keep tab of all lynched persons, and all lynchers; to keep a clear-cut number of the persons lynched per year, per month and per day; where they are lynched to satisfy the governor of what is going on in his State. Now, since this is the work of the N. A. A. C. P., it ought not to complain if people from the mob-ridden districts should happen to come in on them for a little austenance during their days of need. If these sufferers will go directly to the N. A. A. C. P. itself, it can more easily get their number and location; where they live, and how much they lost, with the name of the governor of the State from which they derived their troubles. Now, the work of the U. N. A. L. is to organize Negroes everywhere, and make them self-protecting, self-asserting, and self-dependent. Now, since our work is along that line, we might be excused for put entering into the work of the N. A. A. C. P. White people ought to protect Negroes who have been mobbed, and all those who work with White people should protect them. Now, I am quite certain that our association can help any Negro. I will glady do so, but the U. N. I. A. does not hunt up special cases; our business is along another line entirely. Let us congratulate the N. A. A. C. P. on it is doing. The only way we can have knowledge of the number of Negroes lynched is by referring to the records of the N. A. A. C. P. We do not keep such records, but if you want to know what the Negroes are doing throughout the world to establish themselves, and what they are doing for race uplift, you can come to the manhood which is willing to condescend to the white people of America the entire country of America, but which says, "Africa for the African," the U. N. I. A. will give you that information. On the other hand, if you want to find people who are fighting for rights, and weep because they cannot obtain their in America, we refer you to the N. A. A. C. P. If you want to find people who do not expect their full rights in America, but are determined to have them in Africa, we refer you to the U. N. I. A. We hope that the N. A. A. C. P. will attend to its work well, for we need their records. I do not know what it helps the white people and black people to know how many have been lynched during the year. Now, let us remove every obstruction out of the way of the N. A. A. C. P, and let us struggle on to organize the entire Negro race throughout the world for pre-operative self-protection from the White people. (Signed) J. D. GORDON.

FAVORS ALL CHURCHES, BUT ADOPTS NONE AS U. N. L. A. CHURCH To the Editor of the Negro World Dear Mrs.—To the divisions of the U. N. I. A. throughout the world there is a natural tendency on the part of the members of the U. N. I. A. when inducted into the new idealism, to come into it with the idea of a church, and there has been an effort on the part of many in different parts of the country to start a Universal Church. I want it to be distinctly understood, that the U. N. I. A. is not a church, and it does not intend to be one, so far as the present signs are, there will be no church connected with the U. N. I. A. I. wish to say if anyone comes around and tells you of a church that is not connected, I repudiate it from start to finish, if it is absolutely false. There is no such church as that authorized. We favor all churches, but adopt none as a U. N. I. A. Church. Let the presidents and officers of the various locals take notice and govern themselves accordingly. Respectfully yours. July 6, 1921. JACK DEMPSEY AND JACK JOHNSON To the Editor of the Negro World: Dear Sir—In the Daily News of Monday, July 11 we find an article by Harry Newman, which carried a caption, "Such a Battle Would Tend to Blacken Sport." He states further that Jack Johnson announces that it would be the ambition of his life to meet Jack Dempsey, and Newman still goes on to say a suggestion on the part of Jack Johnson is quite a generous one. That it is in itself a severe insult to the intelligent American public—in speaking of Johnson coming fresh from a prison cell and a self-confessed faker, and wants to know what unscrupulous promoter would dare attack such a contact. First, I will say that Newman does not appear to be a clean sportman, by any means. Just a race-hater attempting to poison the minds of Americans who stand for clean sport and a square deal. Jack Johnson leaves Leavenworth a respectable American citizen who some time ago did wrong and has paid the penalty for an wrong. During the war he was quite patriotic, giving the service of his car and giving money to help accomplish the aims of the Allies. We think that any newspaper that would attempt to publish such articles against Mr. Arthur Johnson is not living up to the standards of journalism. No Negroes of America are with Jack Johnson and we appeal to the good and just-thinking white Americans to see to it that Johnson is given a square deal. A better man there novar was in the pugilistic world who gave he was black or white. If such was the cano with him, what of others. We say give us clean sport or nothing at all. Trusting that a promoter that's a real man and a true American will bring about a Johnson-Dempsey contest for the world's heavyweight championship. Tours for a square deal and clean sport. HAROLD G.

A. By R. 8. SIMSON Several years ago Harriet Becherstone gave to us the true Slavonic life of darky life and the grubbage of agenentry. Today, fifty-odd years later, the shackles of bondage have allan and the new Negro, with what left of the Indian, have both risen consistently among the great multitude of white. To this end, that we might view the Negro and the Indian of modern times and see them as they are. A Lincoln Harris has given us a remarkable play and one which will cause thousands and graduates and tertiary students of younger age which he colleges have turned out to blush with shame at the empty pitcher which they so slothfully failed to fill at the fountain of life's usefulness. The plot is so skillfully drawn that it shows Mr. Harris' work favourable with the brain of a white playwright, whose life of study, practice and experience had given him an advantage. The briefest possible substance of the story that Marcus Garvey a son of New York, had fallen in love with Wanna, had Indian mind. This Indian girl and her brother were known by a white man before they were taken by the Indians after separation by fire from their mother whom they did not remember. Mr. Garvey objects to his son's marriage to an Indian, as he had planned for his son to take up his life before he had passed away and right here we will say some of the most beautiful dramatic work is introduced showing the work of Marcus Garvey and his followers that we ever witnessed on a stage. The mother naturally plans to aid her son in happily and a marriage license is secured, but the father appears on the scene just in time to prevent the marriage. At this juncture the white man discovers that he knew the two Indians in their childhood and breaks the news that they are not Indians, but Negroes. One writer in a Philadelphia paper says "the new Negro ennounced to lionize the Garvey element of the race and make the new Negro appear as something superior to all other races of the world." That is not pua. The author has clearly pictured the difference between the old and the new Negro. The old Uncle Tom type is shown in a servant of the Hon. Marcus Garvey, while the new Negro stands up man to man in the son of Marcus Garvey and demands an equal break with other races. The new Negro not only tickles the fancy of the masses, but gives to the intelligent classes the thing long wished for, namely, something to give inspiration, to digest and be proud of. It arrives its portrayal a deeper and ranger meaning and force than any drama as yet produced and written by a member of the Negro race. Miss Emelyne J. Tindley as leading lady displayed dramatic instinct which certified considerable applause. She took the house by storm with her beautiful solo Mrs. Viola Carter as Henrietta Upton Davis, president of the U N I A. Club was dignified and gave her very tasting lines with a beauty of expression which only comes from years of application and study. Mrs. Ella Pleasen as Mrs. Garvey was delightful not only to listen to, but also to look upon. She infused into the character all the aristocracy of wealth and position and as the mother was sweetly forgiving and patient. Sandy N. Horton with great wit and wittyness with artist instinct. The other character characters were Eve Willis, Lillian Myer, Sarah Dorney, Burslow Lowery. These young ladies gave fine interpretations of their parts. R. Jasper as Marcus Garvey filled the dramatic requirements of his work. Mr. J. Thomas Butler as the son of Mr. Garvey and the hero of the play did some of his best work. He was everything that could be expected of an artist of his ability. The most complete character in the play was the comedy role, an ignorant man servant of Mr. Garvey's. The part was taken by A. Hughes, who is a real comedian. The author certainly wrote some real witty lines. In all the scenes his comedy stood out. Albert Tindley as Rev. Eason was pleasing and exalted. The other male characters were Edgar Moon, W. Horner, Walter S. Hanna and Frank Johnson, who all gave good account of themselves. Mr. Harris should be encouraged in his great work, not only by members of the Universal Negro Improvement association, but by every member of the race, for the beautiful, life of Whaen and the noble character of Marous Garvey should be anchored in the heart of every boy and girl of the race throughout the nation. "The New Negro" is a drama full of beautiful thoughts and inspiration. THE DURABLE SYSTEM THE DURABLE SYSTEM a perfect head of hair is assured if you use Durable Hair Dressing.

Phone: or Email: MADANE LOUISE 109 West 15th Street Norfolk, Va., July 6—Last Sunday ended a series of meetings in this city conducted under the auspices of the Norfolk Division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, of which Mr. Allen Hobbe is president. These meetings, which were staged at several of the local churches, were quite a success and hundreds of members were added to the colors of the red, black and green. The speaker, who, to the minds of every hearer, is next to the Rt. Hon. Marcus Garver, the founder of the organization, has won the people of Norfolk for the Universal Negro Improvement Association. This young man thundered forth and in his persuasive eloquence compared all great movements and their founders from the call of the first patriot, Abraham, down to the present patriot, Garvey, and showed that this great movement has come to stand the test of the time, that it has come out of the grounings of 400,000,000 sons and daughters of Ethiopia who are seeking liberty and freedom. He also said that to try to atemp to arrest this movement is like trying to arrest a stream in its course—it might be impeded for the moment, but it collects new life and flows on and over every impediment, and that the new Negro is like that stream which is in every country, to fertilize if you will allow him, but on the contrary, devastation if he is trampled upon. He said that this movement is contending for the same things that George Washington contended for taxation without representation, and that the Negro need not look to any nation or people to work out his destiny but himself, and that they will never be respected as a people until they shall find for themselves a government upon the continent of Africa and have a flag of their own that they may call on for protection and that there is no need of sending petitions to Washington against any outrages, but it is only appealing from Caesar to Caesar. He also appealed to Negroes to get racial consciousness and to be interested not only in politics and in commerce, but also in religion showing them that among all of their faiths no one of the articles was written by black men. We wish Speaker Toote godspread and a happy and long life to carry on the noble work, and with the same force for many years, even until his hopes have been realized. Africa re-raised the world to a new level, unified to the topmost of time. I am for African redemption—Allen Hobbe, president, Norfolk, Va.—Local paper. WM. BRIDGES POINTS OUT ERROR IN HIS CASE When on June 15, 1920, Dr. A. L. Campbell and I, acting for the National Negro Reality & Holding Co., Inc., of which I am president, closed title to the twenty-four-family apartment house at 55-87 West 129th street, sixteen stockholders were booked for apartments and were to move in as soon as the apartments became vacant, as they were all occupied by white people. Among these stockholders was Wm. H. DuBois. He was assigned to five rooms immediately after we closed contract in May, and, like the others, was asked to put up one month's rent in advance which he, in a letter to me, stated that he could not do, as he had just ordered a new overcoat, to cancel his apartment, at the same time wishing me every success with the company. We then rented his apartment to some one else, as we had a perfect right to do, since he was not the only Negro in New York that desired some place to live. In other words, he could not live one month's rent in advance, and it is not the custom of any company to hold apartments for any one on which there has not been placed this security. On Thursday, July 7, DuBois summoned me to the 12th District Court (I do not know Officer McIntyre) before Magistrate Silberman, one of the fairest magistrates in New York, who, after hearing the complaint, asked me if I would refund to DuBois the amount of his investment. I faimed him that I could not do that, but that I would resell the gentleman's stock for its face value. I could not and cannot refund any stockholder's investment, owing to that this is strictly forbidden by the General Corporation Law of the state. Whenever money is funded the officers of the corporation are liable to prosecution by the Attorney General, and the corporation is likely to be dissolved. The facts and the law, therefore, are both against Wh. DuBois. The only questions to be settled in this case are these: Did DuBois invest with my company $109 upon the promise of getting an apartment? He did. He was given the apartment! He was given 240 houses on the fifth floor, a truth which if he were one can disprove we will gladly make a appointment. Of all of it, Why was the apartment so expensive, some one else was? It was suited to the room. John Patterson, because DuBois offered stating that he had spent and not months rent, as all the others, had done, respectively established his investment. That's my case. Let DuBois take it down in some future if he does. POETRY FOR THE PEOPLE I want to hear the story Of Eden and its charms; So Ephraim please tell me While I rest in your arms. O, yes. Ive read the story, And heard it at church, too; But it sounds ne'er so splendid, As when its told by you. Tell me how Gihon's river, Encompassed our fair land; How Egypt's sons and daughters Strayed by its golden strand. Tell me how Gihon quivered, With care that Adam plied; When he had all dominion, And Eve was happy bride. And how our siren near Eden, Looked over at its shore— Behold the star of morning, Rise o'er its pierless door. It seems so grand and wondrous— I love to hear it told; How our forefathers flourished, So near to God of old. Why do I love to hear you? Because you're of the line; That used to dwell near Eden, When it was all divine. So whisper me the story, While twilight shadows steal; Around me like your gentle arms I cannot see but feel. The Evening Star is rising, Like it lit paradise; And penetrating glooming, Like it sought Adam's eyes. Banished is the white man's land— To Paradise we go; When you tell Eden's story, And evening lights are low. ETHEL TREW DUNLAP. DULL ARYAN EYES Tis not the color of thy skin conceals O.

God's out- doors, Of prehistoric fame that should in- spire. Tis envy's smouldering ember, not thy shrine That lacks the glowing flame of beauty's fire. Yet, Africa son, consider well the source— The ideals of a ragged, time-worn past. Until the boat of partial standards wrocks, Thou couldst not safely rear thy better mast. When it goes down and waters have grown calm, Thy ship may sail with statalliness the seas; Thy sail shall freedom's unstained emblem be, And liberty thy ocean's gentle breeze. May Aryans dullness teach this truth to thee, That color is a subterfuge for fools. Who think that God is on a trip abroad And that the Master, not the servant rules. Boast not thy color when thy race ascends— Leave that for poets of inspired ideals. That land to outward stuff the lovliness That inner worth and quality reveals.

In the missionary field you have labored, A field of vast riches and graft— You cried as you stood in the temple "Oh, gift ye your wheat from the chaf!" For the day of His reckoning is near thee, Pray give what thou hast to the pour." But they hardened their hearts, nor feared they Till desolation and death reached their door. Then as a father you wept with the fallen, Comforted souls that were sad, In the midst, hark! a loud voice is calling— Nations are warring like mad; Africa, the land of the pals, A land of rich GIs cultured fielder Of diamonds and pearls and corals, Coal, fruit and bills copious, yield: Fair Africa, land of pure ancestry, is in parish.

In @ Christian de- mocracy no man need expect any sort of caste system to persist. Christianity ‘and democracy can be trusted to abol- wh racial prejudice, enmity, strife and hatred.” Archdeacon James 8.

He is an artist in his line and he little racial knows it. You can tell it by the way he prances, and indigues with his head when the band is playing a particularly difficult selection in which he has an important part. Then he walks about Zion with his head. High, makes faces at the bass drummer, and makes his kettle drum talk the language of a real drummer. The Drummer of "Our Band" is a drummer before the people. His drum smile almost the same relation to the drummer, and most loyal friend, and I rocked if anybody tried to touch that drum there would be either a foot race or a funeral in Liberty Hall. Nostalge the band plays, neighbor, watch the drummer's hand do the shimmy and you almost do the same. And I should also lose a hand he could beat his drum with his head quite as well as he now does with his hands. He's some drummer, and I watch him with the greatest interest, because I used to shimle one of those instruments when I was born. It is an institution to see him in action and to note the pride he takes in his work. Politicians fear a "pounding" more than they do a battalion of soldiers. The more they are pounded, criticized and their short-comings exposed, the more intelligently and effectively they put the fear of the voter in their hearts and the voter will always get the service he is entitled to. But if they are allowed to get away with the idea that they are little gods, masteres of the people they serve, they will all over them and laugh in their sleeves in committee rooms. Never let a politician regard you as a suppliant. When you want him to do things, demand it respectfully and man-fashion it if he is not doing it right and nail him to the creek. Keep on him; watch his course in Congress, in the Legislature, in the Board of Aldermen and where ever he is in position to serve the public interests. Check him up as the god and man of the people. The old order changens and all things are become new. Votes are the chief asset in the business of a politician. The more satisfied voters he has behind him, the greater is his influence, the more potent his power. But keep ever before him his hint. Keep thinking he standstill, take heed, feel he fall.

Some thirty, old years, age, when I was a resident of the city of magnificent distances and hungry office seekers, I was one day among my exchanges (I was then editor of Grit, a weekly newspaper) an African newspaper edited by a man named Solomon T. Platze. I read the paper, which was the second copy of a real African newspaper I had even seen, with keen ear and was greatly pleased with its write and well written editorial, its unhappy editorial spies and contributed constructive and to the point, and I then and there decided to get better acquainted with Africa, and Africana, and especially with those who were members of the Fourth Estate, and who are publishing newspaper and better newspapers. I wrote to him, and I wrote to me. I wrote this Mr. Platze to thank him for putting me on his exchange list, and to tell him how well pleased I was with his newspaper. Ever since then we have carried on a desultory correspondence and have come to know each other "pretty聪慧" and "well-versed" in response with other Africans of light and leading, that Platze is a man of quite considerable ability as a writer of books and an orator and linguist. When his book "South African Afrians" appeared, I got a press copy from the London publishers and Western newspapers some years ago. This Elaine man, from Emberley, where the diamonds give him gritten nearer to mid-that any African I have ever known personally by correspondence, except my late lamented and honored friend, Edward Wilmot who honored him with his birth, and African by adoption and choice, and a Negro from the spice of his foot to the crown of his head, whose brilliant intellect as a writer and thinker gave prestige and honor to the word Negro and made it quite respected and respectable. Mr. J. Crotty Gordon, to the contrary notwithstanding, Plague is another of his works, and his writings lie to critics of the term "Negro" by proving to the world by his genius as a great scholar that man is mind, and as such is neither black nor white. I have just had a line from a friend in the West, which informs me that this youngster covered. Himself with glory at the convention of the Napa, (short for N. A. A. C. P.), in which was marvelously phrased, powerful in argument, convincing in thought, eloquent in delivery and satisfying in effect. Well he can do it. It is in him and it has to come out somewhere, some time, and I was not surprised to learn that the man who had elocited Lord George in English and the nineteenth century of the eloquence and the nineteenth century of the eloquence and pleased a Negro audience composed of "colored people" who are excellent judges of oratory. fol Plantja is now telling his story --- COND will win the rest of the race, which will confirm the roster's show-stopping talent.

He earns his own living by selling his very valuable books and pamphlets—very interesting information by a native on the condition of the South African natives. WHAT SHALL WE DO TO BE SAVED? WHAT SHALL WE DO TO BE SAVED? The times that were are no more. We now face new conditions. Origin was the Negro, of America, believed, that our salvation would come via the Republican party and the white man's conception of Christianity—the Golden Rule. But also, those avenues seem to be an ignis natus! The colored preacher, as a rule has advised the colored people to trust in God, which may be efficacious, but that has not proven效贯 per se. We have gone "mad" on "churchology" and meaningless sermons and prayers, but falling short on real Christianity. What we must face from now on are the facts, not as they should be, but as they are. It is sometimes that the American white folk are determined to crush and keep cow. down the American Negro, and for our part we cry: Courage, brother, be not damned! Hold your kid high above the waves of prejudice and go forth to your destiny—the mark of the high calling. Our younger set, from 18 to 22 years, is our own set, but it is not. What is need is encouragement correct teaching wholesome lectures and real information. Every preacher should be a teacher, an informer. He should tell our younger folk how to live and how to become smart man and woman, and quill the scriptures, and people who attend church by preschool. We abstinat hell fire and soul damnation. There is too much money and not enough philosophy preached. We are striving to secure 200 members here by cold weather. Our salvation is in our hands—not the hands of the white or yellow face. We must fight for children and children things. The church has failed to do the work essential to our success on the earth—African and American, united in mind and action, will make the world quake and tremble. Negroes awake.

BROOKS TO DELIVER EMANCIPATION ADDRESS 500 PERSONS IN AKRON, O., TELEGRAPH FOR DR. BROOKS TO DELIVER EMANCIPATION ADDRESS The following telegram was received by WO H. Ferris, editor of The Negro World, regarding the Hon. J. D. Brooks, secretary general of the U. N. W. II. Durrell 64 West 183th street; New York, N. Y. "FIRST PRINCIPLES" In those days of but awakening many people are still sitting for guidance or reading. We are beginning to appreciate the fact that the educated person to the well-educated person, and to the well-read person, is the well-read person. "We say well-read rather than much-read, the two things are not necessarily the same. It was a great English thinker, Hobbes, who used to say, "If I had read as much as some people I should have known, I would have known a very strong intellect to read extensively and retain own moral independence. Gibbob, Macauley, Spencer, the late Lord Acton, Sir J. G. Praiser, Joseph Macbane and J. M. Robbins, all uncled examples in English or thinkers, and yet retained their vigor and originality. As the body is more than meat, so the mind is more than books. Yet food is essential to the one and books, in our days, to the other. The problem is that we eat too much, too much text, in each case, is that of proper nourishment. In both cases it will be tried that what's one man's meat is another's potion. A square meal for one may well be over-eating for another. We need to be careful with the system that becomes a daisyhop, clorping and poisoning the blood supply. In the one case, as in the other, a dietary would be of service. But it isn't our present intention to compilse such a dietary. We wish merely to insist on the importance of a certain kind of food. System of Nature Far back in the early years of the sixteenth century Francis Bacon wrote "The Advancement of Leading" and "The Novum Organon." These were the first works since the era of Greek science in which a European writer has mesured all the available information about the universe via survey. It helped to put an end to the muddled fool's philosophy which had done duty as thinking up to that time. It laid down the law that the bake. business of an educated man was to know the world in which he lived in every important aspect. Since the seventeenth century, he done several times by different writers in France, England, Germany and America. D'Hoback, in 1770, with his "System of Nature" Humboldt (the Commis), Auguste Comte ("Course of Positive Philosophy"); Ludwig Buchner ("Three and Matter"); Haeckel ("The Science of the Universe") and Fische in America ("Oblities of Positive Philosophy.") Each of these is practically a system of nature. They are all foundation works, and anyone who is genuinely in search of an education should read them all, but especially, the last three which are products of the era of evolution. Pikeau's work is the easiest to read, but it is only an American simplified version of Spencer's, which is the most accurate. The World in One Volume. The "First Principles" of Herbert Spencer is a compendium of the nine volumes of his "Synthetic Philosophy", which is the ablest attempt yet made by the mind of man to understand, describe and explain The one far-off divine event To which the whole creation moves. It is divided into two sections. The first contains of five chapters and contains general title of "The Unknowable." The second part, "The Knowable," takes the facts and the problems connected with science, time, matter, motion, force, mind and society. Every department of human knowledge is drawn upon the universe, biology, psychology, sociology, engineering, sociology; art—each falls into its ordered phase; and furnishes its own contribution to the explanation of the marvelous way in which the universe and everything in it (from the floating thought in your mind) fits into a politician's show order and harmony. To master this one-book is to have a fuller, deeper and more genuine education that you could get in twenty years dabbling in "theology," "philosophy," "literature" and some other forms of time-wasting theories and techniques, and to drop if something of how things happen to happen. Your mind will be better able to think for itself and to master and understand the thoughts of other men. For Rancher makes a math think and think bleeds. And after all, isn't that the object of our higher education? We. Negroes need, education that makes power. And we can pick up more helpful guide than Herbert Boister. The Japanese found this out long ago, and we may well profit by their example. be bond-servers, to on our duty, work without a pass.

The next on the program was a song, "Jesus Loves of My soul," by Miss Katherine LaMont, of the Santiago drive. Mr. Joshah Thompson, in a very new word, convinced the audience of his truth spirit of Garvoyian, showing that U. N. I. A. is provided, and even being converted to the cause. He appeals for the support of the cause and especially asks Havana to wake the refraining to the oppression of Negroes in the United States, asking us to come together and unite to stop such influences from murder, and develop our motherland, Africa.

High Commissioner Speaks THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JULY 16, 1921 In less than four years we can paint four million of members, four staircases of the "Black Jack Lily," one of which had been in your port about a year ago named the "Prudence Duplex" and whose crew was received and welcomed by air-President Moncal and published in "El Mundo" (newspaper); another, which left have one month ago named after a paro of the Negro Ica, one who fought for the right of his fellowmen for the redemption of Cuba. And though he be born in Cuba, yet we know that he is of our race because he is black like us and we honor him by mansing our vessel "Antonio Maced." Today the Negro, through Marcus Carver, are realizing that they are the greatest nation on the face of the earth. Not that we undervalue other men, but just as the United Fruit Company started forty-five years ago with a little yacht today they have thousands of floating palaces, so we started three and one-half years ago with four steamships. Now, let us see United Fruit Company started with a yacht and today they have thousands. We started four years ago and we have four-how, in forty-five years we shall have many thousands. We are going faster than the United Fruit Company; the reason is that they started in the days of candle, but we have started in the days of electricity. The same spirit I have is what I come to give, and I am not going to stop until our race is on the same platform of equality with the other races. Our motto is "One God, One Aim, One Destiny," and that destiny is the freedom and liberty of Afron. For three hundred years we were in the schools and colleges of other races. They came and took us out of our house in Africa, saying they were going to educate us. They scattered us in all parts of the United States, South and Central America, in Cuba and other parts of the West, India, and now we have been in their schools for three hundred years and we have learned suffleism. We are now prepared to leave school and return to our homes; we want to do something for ourselves. Now I am going to say something about myself. I fear no man; no man can frighten me under the sun. My father lost his life fighting for the liberty of Cuba, and I have a right to speak here; this is my father's land and mine of heritage. I am not fighting for the liberty of Cuba because Cuba is already liberated by Antonio Maceo, but I am fighting for the liberty of Africa. your sister he be he is speaking we understand he is the man whom which comes to be his as much as English, that he is going to give a slight turn to his tongue, to speak to Heard, understandingly it was I, Clocke, and what amount strange we one showed signs of sleep.

He then made mention of the reception given Mr. Garvey in Havana; how, when they were naming shrimp, they saw what appeared to be banana trees, but as they advanced they realized little by little that they were men; how the Ute Fruit Company planned to how to get their boat loaded, and offered him the first-class coach which is used only by the manager to go to Costa Rica, and with an escort. The President of Costa Rica asked him, "Are you Maruca Garvey?" "I am." "I call you Maruca Garvey because I count you a friend and a man. You have my support." When all that is happening outside, there are Negroes in Havana trying to ridicule the movement. The white man himself confesses. There was published recently in the London Times an article written by a white man saying, "I see a dark MECHANICS ENGINEERS SUPERINTENDENTS CLERKS. STENOGRAPHERS. MANAGERS.

If you must intimate the white man and succeed, you have got to unite. The white man counts a Negro as a Negro wherever he sees him. And whenever the Negro sees him, he prints to the other who wants the Negro to believe that they are in peace, when he whispers to him. "Toot brute if I catch you, I kill you." I am going to give you an illustration of unity. If you let go a number of horses and cows in a pasture in a few minutes, what do you see? (Voice: "The cows gather by themselves and the horses by themselves.") Well take that as a lesson and leave the white man alone. (Another voice, "Yes, because he has the horns like the cow.") The white man unites among himself and the Negro has got to do so, too; we do not want the big island and the small island' man any longer; we want all to be Negroes. When you go to look for a job the white man does not refuse you because you are a small man; when he is going to pay you he pays you as a Negro and gives the other fellow more money because he is white. Now, when they look on you in Cuba, what do they call you all (voice: Jamaiclans). Now, then why can't you all unite and be Jamaiclans?

Brothers and sisters, let it not be a matter of island, but let us all be second, and Negro last, and if there Negroes. Let it be Negro first and be anything left over, let it be Negro. It happened on the Panama Canal sometime ago that a white policeman provoked to anger a Negro who was quite in order. The Negro drew his Holy Jesusham (indicating his fist) and gave it to the policeman, and in a moment he was kicking the dust. They both wrestled a bit and another white man stood by, and when he felt ashamed to see a Negro prevailing over his of his color he drew the guards' pistol and shot the Negro. Two hundred other Negros, who had been watching, simply went to their respective places on Panama Government prevailing over 200 Negro. That is the way they had been going on on the Canal Zone. All two men endeavored to cut it out and have them united, and those are one small island man (referring to Mr. Stoutus), and the man from nowhere (himself). And today the Negroes on the C.

Williams of West Minneapolis attended the afternoon meeting at the extreme bottom of the afternoon meeting of the extreme bottom. Hayes Williams attended and this service also, the subject of his [sic] lecture being "The Bible and Masonism Garry." In part he said: "I have been in the world for forty-seven years and have followed everything. The Nazis have had us started. They have, albeit broken, up, made a mass of all of them except the N. U.

HAS AWAKENED THE PEOPLE OF JAMAICA I should not be worthy of my office in this greatest movement of Negroes the world own, if I did ppt make known to my brothers, and step across the seas the great awakening that the Universal Negro Improvement Association has brought to the people of Jamaica, and principally in Kingston, since the advent here of our Presidential General, the International Organizer and High Commissioner, and the Leader for the West Indies. For some time past the Universal Negro Improvement Association was regarded a failure in so far as Jamaica is concerned. This was entirely due to the lack of confidence of the people in their leadership, and so the membership, which once stood at nearly 1,600 members, was allowed to fail to less than 300 active members. We are making efforts to restore the people's confidence. On account of the conditions which prevailed, a few seasol members on the twenty-first of January last got together and founded a Chapter in this city in order to rehabilitate the reputation of the association. This Chapter worked assiduously and successfully, and when our great leader first landed in this country the true state of things as then assisted was brought to his attention. Having regard, however, to the fact that he would be interfering with the work of the International Organizer, he advised the delegates who interviewed him to take up the matter with the high officer on her arrival here. But something happened and the good lady was held up in Cuba on account of a strike on the railroad, and simultaneously the General warrant was issued to find conditions worse, and dissatisfaction among the people greater. He caused a meeting of the members to be called on May 10, when he listened to the complaints of the officers, as well as the defense of the officers, at the conclusion of which it was put forward as the desire of the members present that an election of officers should be held, as a result of which the following persons were elected:— Mr. B. M. Jones, President; Mr. C. A. Campbell, Vice-President; Mr. U. Leo Grant, Treasurer; Mr. R. George Heinl, General Secretary; and Mr. T. A. McCottinack, Assistant Secretary. It took the President General only a couple of hours to right matters, and this has convinced the people of Jamaica of the personality of our great leader. In one of his many addresses here, he has rightly said, "That when any man or thing passes the examination of Jamaica, that man or thing is supposed to pass the examination of the world," and so we are able to say that the Universal Negro-Improvement Association has now passed the examination of Jamaica. Since our new birth, we have been holding meetings three times during the week, and twice on Sundays, and the only complaint is that up to the present time we are unable to find a building in this city large enough to accommodate the people. Old members are returning with joy in their eyes; new members enrolling daily, while critics are being converted. Old men and women who have listened to the eloquent speeches of the Hon. Marus Garvey come to our meetings and have declared that they feel many years younger and are now looking forward to the day when Africa will be free. The new administration has a big program before it, we are working hard for the establishment of a press, in order to spread the doctrine of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. We are proud to state that in our local president we have a leader worthy of the cause, and feel confident in our leadership. Truth in the eyes of our President General, who in one of our famous addresses said, "Thank God we have at last found a leader who will take care of the interest of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in Jamaica. Jamaica is now out to take her place among the countries where the Univem Negro Improvement Association is geared on as an important factor during the people of the Negro race, and we hope in the near future to repsi t that the Universal Negro Improvement Association directs the destiny of the Negro of this country.

A. unveils their charter. Indeed, it was the greatest day in the history of the town, many coming from all parts of the county to see and hear about the works of the U. N. I. A. Promptly at $ o'clock, the president, Mr. Wheeler, called the meeting to order after a few well chosen remarks. He then introduced the speakers of the evening, Mr. M. Massenburg, president of the Ralaisa Division, Mr. Massenburg spoke as follows: Mr. President, Officers and Members of the Spring Hope Division of the U. N. I. A.: This is the first time that I have ever been away from my division on Sunday. As a rule I never leave on Sunday, but I received a letter from your president asking me to please come down to help him out, and as an obedient servant of the Negro people of the world, I am here today. (Cheera.) After thirty days speaking and carrying on a great campaign in Raleigh and other parts of the State, I have been able to realize that Mr. Garvey's dream is coming true. Last Sunday we had our first sermon preached by the chaplain, Rev. J. W. Huggins, at the Second Baptist Church, and we turned out in regular uniform. The Black Cross Nurses certainly looked good to me. I wish you could have seen them and heard the sermon. It was not one of those sermons that tells the Negro he can live on earth and board in heaven. I come here today to tell the truth. The Negroes have been fooled long enough and the truth must be told and the truth will make you free. No Negro today is satisfied with the conditions that you exist. Starvation is facing the Negro of this country, hundreds of women and men are walking the streets of Raleigh and other cities that I have visited with no job. Are you satisfied to starve to death? I see the time of 1914 coming back. It behooves every Negro today to join the U. N. L. A. and make himself a job (Cheers). And just as sure as God sits on His throne the Negro will be forced out of this country or starve. Some weeks ago I was in Wilmington for three days working in the interest of that division, and the last night I was there five young men of the New York local were there, and I told them in the course of my speech, that when the course of New York to tell New York that they were not doing it all; that a hundred thousand Negroes were standing behind the U. N. L. A. and the Hon. Marc Garvey of the Old North State. How many of you are doing to make that hundred thousand today! (Many hands in the audience went up.) Now come up and register with the secretary, and they came. You who live in the country come to Spring looking for work and find have the famous that exist in the country—no work. You can save Spring Hope and come to Raleigh find the same conditions existing there—no work. Then you leave for Washington. Philadelphia and New York only to find the same conditions existing there. Now, are you satisfied to starve or make a job for yourself? Well, you can only do so by joining the U. N. L. A. I. I find as I travel through this State that the people are anxious to know about the works of the U. N. L. I. A., and it's only a matter of time that the Negro people of the world will have a government of their own and that day Ethiopia shall stretch forth her hand to God and all nations shall bow down at her feet. I expect to leave shortly and hope to meet your delegate at the convention. J. D. THOMAS. Spring Hope, N.

Priscilla E. Campbell, Lloyd Morrison, also Lady Eve Kildamna, each of whom contributed to $4. On Tuesday His Grace the Chairman General and his secretary were about to leave, but the train was late. They were with us until 2 a.m. Wednesday, when they took the train for Palma Soriano. On March 16 a meeting was hurriedly called here at San Juan by Mr. D. E. Thorpe and four other members of the Tela Division to start a branch of the U. N. I. A. Although that day was a very busy day for the villages, a fairly good number of them showed up. Mr. Thorpe outlined the program of the U. N. I. A. its aims and objects, purposes, benefits, etc., and he enthusiastically spokes of the Hon. Marcus Garvey and other pioneer leaders of the U. N. I. A. The winning capabilities of Mr. Thorpe and companions so enthused their audience that thirteen men stood up one after the other to be enrolled and, immediately, the following officers were elected: Ecclastor Argu, president; Peter Markling, vice-president; A. C. Francisco, secretary and treasurer; Miguel Markling, chaplain. The U. N. I. A. is now in swing here at San Juan. We have meetings every Sunday at 3 p. m. It was rather an uplift work, for Carla are people who are not easily convinced to take part in any movement in which they shall have to be in contact with other races.

If you have pride if you feel that by co-operation we can make conditions better, if you believe that the black boy or black girl is the equal of other boys and girls of other races, then prove it how co-operating to demonstrate our manhood and womanhood, not by talking, but by doing things. The general objects of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League are— To establish a universal confliction among the leaders to promote the spirit of pride and hope, to administer to and assist the needs to assist in civilizing the backward tribes of Africa; to strengthen the nationalism of independent Negro United is African in both ethnic dominance and abolition; to perpetuate the principal countries of the world for the protection of all Negroes, irrespective of nationality; to promote universal, selfless and schools for the racial education and culture of our young men and women; to establish a world homeland and industrial intercourse for the benefit of the less fortunate to work for better conditions among our people; to promote industries and commerce for the benefit of Negroes. If these efforts do not appeal to you, then we are willing to work for your good will.
