Text Taken From 1st Chapter, "Philosophy and Opinions of Marcus Garvey," 6th Paragraph BE EARLY TO GET SEATS. VISIT LIBERTY HALL EVERY SUNDAY MORNING AND EVENING FELLOW MEN OF THE NEGRO RACE, Greeting: The world is on fire. The whole human race is gone mad. Man has lost his reason, and now we age in for an age of ruin and destruction that will upset the efforts of the human race for the last five hundred years. All this has been brought about by the drunken greed for power on the part of certain races and nations. We are in such a terrible mix-up that one would not wonder if man gets his hell right now and not hereafter. Everywhere you look, and on every side you turn, you come in contact with the undermining influence of the one race against the other, the one nation against the other. It is apparent that truth, justice, love, mercy have taken their departure, and all that we have is the reign of selfishness and greed which will ultimately be the wreck and ruin of our civilization. In all this terrible muddle four hundred million Negroes are called upon to play their part. It is natural that we must take on the spirit of the age, harmful though we know it to be, but we are so situated that we can do no better than meet the other fellow on his own grounds. World Upset One part of the world is determined to upset the other part. One race is determined to destroy the other for its own selfish existence, and so in this rigid competition for a place and for life we can do no better than strike out in our own direction to save ourselves from this wreck and ruin that threatens The Universal Negro Improvement Association steps out speaking in unmistakable terms on behalf of our own group, and in language forcible and uncompromising we call upon each and every member of our race to gird his armor on and be ready for the trav. It is not use talking about settling this human question with prayers and words. It cannot be done; it can only be settled by force. This is the only argument that the races and nations of the world understand in the twentieth century. England is speaking with force, France is speaking with force, all the other European powers are speaking with force as their only language, and the races or the people who cannot present to the world organized force will be naturally dragged under in the tidal wave of race oppression. England and France are more determined than ever to exploit and subjugate their darker citizens and subjects, their professions notwithstanding. It is no use looking to them in the sense of the larger humanity, because they have lost their Christian souls. Englishmen and Frenchmen no longer think of humanity in the terms of Christian brotherhood, but in the terms of pounds and francs. The Greed for Money England wants money, France wants money, Italy wants money, Belgium wants money, Portugal and Spain want money, and the only place that they can grind it from today is Africa; hence, they are making one mad determination to exploit and ravish that country, the land of our fathers, without any consideration for humanity or Christian fellowship. If they profess other than their lust for gold, then we know it is a lie; it is all a farce, pretense, hypocrisy. Valueless Talk Let Robert Cecil talk, and Bryan, and Mussqlini; their voices will be lost in the wilderness of African hope, because surely we will not hear them. We heard Chatham before, we heard Gladstone, we heard Chamberlain, and out of their profession of human love and brotherly considera- STRONG APPEAL TO RACE TO COME TOGETHER CRAZE OF NATIONS FOR WEALTH AND POWER THE NEGRO MUST RAISE HIS VOICE IN UNMISTAKABLE MANNER tion we find that Africa has paid the price in blood and in wealth for the expansion of the British Empire to the loss of millions of native Africans and Negroes everywhere. We are tired of this kind of political hypocrisy; therefore, we are calling upon the four hundred million Negroes of the world to listen to no other voice than that which beckons us on to action. The voice that commands us to go forward in the name of an emancipated race and African redemption, the voice that says "March on with the hope of a brighter future, with the throwing off of the influences of the past." The Parting of the Ways of the ways. The black race needs look no longer to any other race for succor, for advice or for political help. We must naturally look to ourselves. More and more we become disappointed in all our hopes; disappointed in all our ambitions, depending as we have been upon others. In America we are gradually being thrown off politically, and disappointed socially and economically. Within the British Empire we are only the scapegoats of a sober and seasoned diplomacy. In France we are only made the dupes of a crafty statesmanship that hopes to profit by the ignorance of those whom they deceive. How, therefore, can we depend upon others? Doing so will mean nothing, else but our present and future ruin, such as has been in the past. Slavery Not Gone The days of slavery are not gone forever. Slavery is threatened for every race and nation that remains weak and refuses to organize its strength for its own protection. Slavery has no day and no time. It is present when the strong race desires to oppress the weaker race. Negroes, be careful of what you do today! No one can tell what our condition will be tomorrow, whether it be slavery or not, if we do not strive toward the goal of racial strength, of racial power, political and national independence. Let us rally around the banner of the Red, the Black and the Green, the universal emblem of African redemption. Let us stand by the colors as Englishmen stand by the Union Jack, as Frenchmen stand by the Tri-Colors, and as white Americans stand by the Stars and Stripes. For us, let the vision be fair, let the vision be one of hope and encouragement. Africa Shall Be Redeemed We need not look back to the darkness. Africa shall be redeemed. Negroes shall be emancipated, but all depends upon our present deeds, our present acts. Shall we go backward? The Universal Negro Improvement Association answers "No!" We have come upon the stage in time to save the entire race from destruction. All that we want is, that each and every one will enter the fold of this great and noble organization and let us unitedly march to our destiny. Turn your attention not away from Africa, because Africa shall be the only salvation and solution of this great problem of race in America and the Western World: Africa, the land of our fathers, beckons us home, if not in person, in sympathy, in sentiment and in moral and financial help, so why shouldn't we help Mother Africa to redeem herself? Why shouldn't we help her to throw off the shackles placed upon her by an alien civilization and alien races? Why shouldn't we help her put to flight the enemy within her doors who seeks her very vitals? Oh, Mother Africa! Oh, land of our Fathers! to thee we come; to thee we pledge our lives, our manhood, our strength, our all, because through thee, and thee alone, we see the avenue to happiness, to peace, to everlasting glory. Ethiopia Shall Arise Ethiopia shall once more arise from the ashes of material ruin to the heights of temporal glory. We see a new Ethiopia, a new Africa, stretching her hands of influence throughout the world, teaching man the way to life and peace, the way to God. He, the great Creator Himself, inspired others to say of us that "Princes shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall soon stretch out her hands." This hour we are stretching forth our hands with the desire to teach the world the true principles of mercy and justice. The Ascendency of the Race the ascendency of the Negro race, not for the purpose of brutalizing and destroying the hopes of the human race, but for the purpose of giving further encouragement to man to live, live in the true sense, in the sense of the Brotherhood, in the sense of the common Fatherhood. That is the life that we want, the life that other races have failed to give, that is why the world is in such chaos, that is why the world faces wreck and ruin, that is why the entire world is upset, that is why it faces Africa to save the day. Come Together Negroes, again we appeal to you to come together. Come together in America, the West Indies, South and Central America and let 400,000,000 of us march forward to the sacred duty that falls upon us, that of saving humanity, that of salvaging a sinful world. Help the U. N. I. A: You can help the Universal Negro Improvement Association put over this great program by your moral and financial assistance. Wherever you are you can send in $1, $2, $5, $10, $15 or whatever you can to help this cause. Write now and send your contribution to the Secretary-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. 56 West 135th Street, New York City, U. S. A. With very best wishes, I have the honor to be Your obedient servant. UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION. NEW YORK, May 10. 1923. P. S. I have to compliment those Divisions, Chapters, Branches and members who have within the last month or two sent in regularly their monthly report and paid up their assessments and dues to enable the Parent Body to meet its tremendous obligations. On behalf of the association I again say that no member can be counted loyal to this great cause who does not see that his Division, Branch or Chapter lives up to the constitutional obligations for 1923. Help is wanted from all quarters, and we think that the members will see to it that their Divisions do the right thing by the Parent Body. M. G.

BABA, Box 55, W16th Street Station, New York By GEORGE MORTON LIGHTFOOT Professor of Latin in Howard University. "The Latin Element in English Speech" is a pamphlet by George Morton Lightfoot, professor of Latin in Howard University. In fourteen pages Prent. Lightfoot packs a mass of scholar- ship that would do credit to an Oxford professor. "Language — Intimately — Connected with Life," "Increasing Attention to the Study of English in Educational Programs of Schools of Every Grade," "Knowledge of Foreign Language — Especially Latin — Essential to Thorough Study of English," "Frequent Miauses of the Term, Modern," "False Ideas of Ancient Life, Based Upon Inadequate Study," "The Latin Language," "The Influence of Rome," "The Romance Languages," "English on the Latin Side," "The German Element," "The Influence of the Norman Conquest," "The Many-Sided Prevalence of the Latin Element in English" are the subjects treated in a brilliant manner. The following quotation from the close of the pamphlet will give the reader an idea to the booklet: These phrases are used in every connection and are often employed with understanding: even by those who are wholly unacquainted with the Latin tongue. Illustrations are found in the following phrases: If puribus unum—the formation of one federal government out of several separate states. Ex cathedra—from the chair, from high authority. Habe corpus—a writ for delivering a person from false imprisonment. In loco parentis—in the place of a parent. In statu quo—in the former state. In toto—entirely. Nolle pros—for nolle prosequi—which indicates the willingness of a plaintiff not to further prosecute his suit. This phrase as well as habe corpus may be found almost any time in the daily paper and is readily understood by the average reader. We have also the familiar sine die (without naming a day for reassembling) applied to Congress and other deliberative bodies. There are numerous other phrases of this description which, while they form a part of the Latin in English, are many of them, less familiar and limited to some profession or craft. But the peculiar feature of the use of these phrases is the fact that the English has completely absorbed them as English, but prefers to keep them in their own idiom and is not once deferred when we attempt to translate these familiar Latin phrases and note the loss in force and aptness of statement. The English for these phrases is often flat and artificial and less English than the Latin itself. We must briefly take into account the great array of abbreviations of Latin expressions which are understood as English. A few axi: A. M. cante peridicum, before, upon, on middley; P. M. most medico-matrici, for example; A. D. Anno Domini, in the year of Our Lord; L. E. for id est, that is; Bid, for bidiom, in the same place. We did every day at the newspaper, abbreviations like et, et and etux, used respectively, for et ali and others, and etux, and wife terms used in connection with the transfer of real property. These words and phrases, which I have just indicated, are purely Latin and have entailed themselves into the English through diverse influence, and at various stages in the development of our vocabulary. They have nothing whatever to do with the city for larger class of English words of Latin stem or roots, modified by endings of prefixes which are either English or are regarded as English, such as: abscess, conform, reserve, contortion, inject, appreciation, and similar words which we constantly employ to meet the demands of oral and written speech. It is estimated on reliable authority that one-fourth (25 per cent.) of the Latin vocabulary has passed into English. In the Bible and in Shakespeare, only sixty per cent. of the words is of Anglo-Saxon origin; in the poetry of Milton, only thirty-three per cent.

Manufacturer of Mimicroncidate of sterile aspirin. these great works is largely on Latin derivation. But when we come to consider our mother tongue in connection with its use in the technical sciences and learned professions, we find that the terminology is almost exclusively Latin or Greek. In the field of biology, for instance, the scientific names of all plants and animals are in Latin. Practically, every term in botany, zoology, and the medical sciences is either Latin or Greek. One cannot stroll through a botanical garden or a zoological park without being confronted with the Latin names of the plants and animals at every turn. These names, which conform to all the requirements of Latin inflection and agreement, are understood by students of biology the world over. In theology, we find that words relating to ecclesiastical matters, religion and the Bible are either Latin words, or Greek words, which have passed into our language through the Latin forms. In fact, the influence of an educated clergy and of the early Christian church is responsible for the presence of a great many technical and literary words in our language. A few examples: Pope, Monk, Inheritance, Salvation, Condemnation, Pastor, Minister, Cathedral, Heterodox, and the like. When we come up to the language of the law, we discover that for the educated lawyer a knowledge of Latin is simply indispensable. The student of law finds upon almost every page of his legal treatise, text-books and court decisions, technical terms, phrases and maxims which he cannot master without a certain degree of familiarity with the Latin language. The persistent presence of the Latin in our legal phraseology is, due to close relation of English and American law to Roman jurisprudence and to the fact that legal pleadings were required to be written and delivered in the Latin language both in England and in the colonies up to about fifty years before the American Revolution. In the course of this discussion I have frequently questioned Greek, a cognate tongue with the Latin, since they both have common origin in the Sanskrit. I have been forced to do this because, as I have before illustrated, so many of the so-called Latin words in our speech are really Greek words which have assumed a Latin form. The direct contribution of the Greek language to our vocabulary is mainly in scientific terms, designating principles and processes, and aptly covering the idea, function or purpose of a scientific theory or invention. We find: hydrostatics, hydrokinetics, acoustic, halogens, telegraph, telephone, stenography, aeroplane, eruGENes, dictagraph and the like. It is at once a distinct tribute to the vitalizing power of those who style it a "dead" language that whatever a principle in science has been established or a great invention has been made, recourse must be had to the vocabulary of the Greek in order to find a term which will in apt and adequate fashion describe such an invention. NEGROES, TIRED OF SLAVERY AND DISFRANCHISEMENT, LEAVING SOLID SOUTH ("Negro World Washington Bureau") WASHINGTON, May 16.—The exodus of Negro farm labor from Southern States is attracting national attention. According to a survey just completed by the U. S. Department of Agriculture, the movement of Negroes from the South to the North in the last year has been of such proportion as to create a shortage of farm labor in some sections of the South. According to the report, approximately 13 percent, of the total amount of Negro farm labor, in Georgia has left the State for the North during the past 12 months. In Alabama, South Carolina and Arkansas from three to four percent of the Negro farm workers have left the States since the last crop season. As a result, there is large abandonment of average in these States and corresponding decrease in prospective production as well as increase in cost of production. Although the survey of the U. S. Department of Agriculture enters but very briefly into the alleged causes of this migration, other sources of information justify the assertion that the principal cause is the treatment of the Negro by Southern States and Southern people. The pronounce system, convict labor camps, which characterizes practically all the Southern States and which amounts to nothing less than a continuation of human slavery, are two of the principal factors in driving Negroes from the South. The refusal of Southern States to obey the Federal Constitution and give the Negro citizen a right to vote is also accountable for much of the migration, especially among Negroes who served their country during the World War and who feel that that service entitles them to at least the rights of citizenship. The charge of the South that the high wages of the North is the reason for the migration is not to be taken seriously. The discrepancy between Northern and Southern wage levels has always been notorious, but never before has the difference attracted Negroes from their native sections. PROMINENT COLORED MAN PASSES AWAY CINCINNATI, Ohio (Special).—Beneath a wilderness of foggy grass consisting of floral designs as a tribute of their esteem and respect, Joseph L. Jones was laid to rest in this city Saturday, April 21. Following the announcement of his death messages by wire, by letter, followed by floral design, came from every section of the United States. Nearly every Grand Court of Calanthe in the jurisdiction of North Abercrombie and most of the If the American people want Henry Ford for President they will have to draft him. This is the conclusion reached by the Rev. William L. Hidger, pastor of St. Mark's, Mothodiel Episcopal Church, of Detpelt, in an authorized interview with Mr. Ford in "The Outlook" of this week. "I have proved to my own satisfaction that not a single effort has been made from Mr. Ford's office to promote the Ford boom." Mr. Hidger said. "He has not turned his hand over." Mr. Hidger said he was informed that Mr. Ford was "sitting tight" over the matter of running for the Preedency before he interviewed him, and discovered that this information was correct. He added that the interview he went to get might have been headed "What Would You Do If You Were Elected President?" "I told Mr. Ford that I had been traveling through the country all summer for Chautauquas, that everywhere I went people I met were wanting me to talk about Mr. Ford, that the first question they shot at me, when I entered a little town and they knew that I was from Detroit was: What about Mr. Ford? Will he run for the Presidency? Does he really want to be President? Will he take the nomination if it's offered to him? Who will offer it to him." "I told Mr. Ford all of this, and he smiled, as any man would, but the smile might have meant several things. All he said was, 'That's interesting.'" Does Not Want a Job Mr. Stidger said that he told Mr. Ford that railroad meat all over the country, impressed by the way he rehabilitated and raised wages on his own railroad, favored him for President. Mr. Ford, he added, seemed pleased, but said nothing. Mr. Stidger said he also told Mr. Ford that the farmers and the clergy of the country were for him, and that the most he could get from Mr. Ford was a return question as to why this was so. "My next strategic question that was to lead up to what he would do if he were the Chief Executive," Mr. Stidger continued, "was: 'What would you do if you were suddenly to take over a defunct automobile industry?'" "He said: 'We would do just what we have always done with that kind of job.'" "What did you do?" "We tided it up." "And now, Mr. Ford, I come to the real question. All of the preceding questions have been put to lead up to this one: 'Can't we get you to become our chief executive and tidy things up for us?' 'He laughed again. Then he became serious. He was sitting in a chair which was facing against a radiator; he polished to a rug which ran within a foot of where we were sitting, and said: 'Do you see that rug there?' Then he reached his foot out until it almost touched the rug, and said, 'I wouldn't step as far as from here to that rug to become King of England.' Office must Call the man "And there was a ring of real sincerity as he spoke. I honestly believe that he means what he said. If America wants Henry Ford it will have to draft him. If America gets Ford, it will have to take the matter out of politics and let the office call the man, as it did in the old days of true sonship. Heavy Ford is too much of an American to be seeking the office, but after many visits with him, I feel that if America calls he will answer, in spite of his reluctance to speak at this time." Mr. Stickler quoted the late Theodore Roosevelt as having told High Chalmers of Detroit that Mr. Ford would make a formidable candidate for President in 1924. "If Mr. Ford becomes even a candidate for the Presidency," Mr. Stickler continued, "it will not be through a single effort he himself has made or a single effort that his organization has made with his sanction. "I have never looked for a job, and I'm not looking for one now. I have the biggest job on earth as it is," said Mr. Ford to me, as he settled down on the floor with all four feet of his chair, abandoning his dependence for support upon that radiator. With all four legs of the chair and both feet set down kerplunk, he closed the interview, saying, "No, I am not looking for a job." subordinate courts in every State sent a letter, a wire or a floral offering. The funeral services, the most pathetic that had been witnessed in this city, were held at the Allen Temple A. M. E. Church at the southeast corner of Sixth street and Broadway, directed by Mr. Howard T. Gruer. Mr. Jones had been prominent public life of this city for more than twenty-five years. For a number of years he was clerk in the County Court office. He was a member of all the fraternal organizations of the city, and was for a number of years vice chancellor of the Supreme Lodge, Knights of Pythias, placing him at the head of the Supreme Court of Calanthe. He served as Major-General of the Uniform Bank K. of P., in the State of Ohio; he organized and was president of, at the time of his death, the Central, Regalia Company, operating a large factory on West Ninth street. He was a member of the Board of Director of a number of the biggest organizations throughout the State. He was secretary and treasurer of the African Union Company of Secondes, Gold Coast, Africa, with headquarters also in New York city. The loss of Mr. Jones is regarded as one of the biggest that Cincinnati has sustained for years. I want to give you a full 50¢ box of my famous Hair Grower FREE!

There is a great, deal of difference of opinion among literary authorities and to the author of the above quotation, We having for many years been ascribed to one of the most eminent writers, but latterly the authorship has been challenged, so it is in doubt, but its importance to the people of the Negro race lies in the truth to which it gives expression, and we rejoice in the fact that Negroes, the world over, have begun to realize the truth, and to learn to live for crowded hours of glorious life, instead of for a homeless age. And so, like the mighty power of a light divine, piercing and dispelling dark clouds of a gloomy night; and like a clarion, ringing out, loud and clear, above the din and noise of chantic conditions in a war-worn and wary world, came the voice of Marcus Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association five years ago, calling to Negroes everywhere, to rise up and be men; to rouse themselves from the dull super and lethargy of the long, dark, grusome night of slavery and oppression, and look out on the firmament of heaven, see there written by the hand of God: "Princes shall come up out of Egypt and Ethiopia shall soon stretch out her hands unto God" in kindly remembrance of His promise to our forefathers in the dim historic past which in their modern significance is interpreted to read, "The Negro must be free, and Africa must be redeemed!" We have been burdened and oppressed. We have drunk the cup of suffering to its bitterest dreggy, despite all their sufferings and their load of oppression, the Negroes of the world have had faith enough in God and the human race to always be willing to sacrifice, for the sake of others in their battles for freedom. We have prayed; yes, and we have been laughed at for praying, and called foolish for our impatient faith and belief in the God who called creation. The answers to our prayers have been a long time coming, since they, like us, have come to realize that the Negro is the answer to his own prayers, and that today, in this twentieth century day, when the Negro hows his knees to God, either spiritually or physically, he rises up from his spiritual clearer in vision, more conscious of soul power, more strengthened in body, spirit and spirit ever than he was before, and that every such commission with the Master of the Universe tells the Negro's soul with a glorious hope, and a living, burning, shining faith, that will never dim, and an unimaginable desire and an unyielding determination that he will rise up and be a man; that he must will and shall free, and that Africa, his Africa, the land of his forefathers, must be wrested and rescued from the hands of alien robbers and their greedy domination. And nothing short of full, complete and absolute freedom and emancipation will ever satisfy the people of the Negro greet the wide world over. This is why the voice of Marcus Garvey and the U. N. L. A. one and indivisible has found so great and ready a response in the heart of the Negro people scattered over the remotest bounds of earth. This awakening of the Negro to a sense of the limitless opportunity before him, of the potential powers of his being, and to the great good he shall have to play in the future shaping of the destiny of the world, is coming some uneasiness to some of the element minds in the other camp, and there have been more confession on the one hand, and missages on the other during the past two years, than in any century preceding that awakening. tame. Unasselfaced stalk their dream- and the Negro is the nightmare. They have begun to realize that the apa-riorty bubble only lasted while the darker races were sleep, and allowed them to run things in the world to suit their own, sweet will. Now, however, that the sleep and the veil have been thrown aside, and we are hasking in the sunshine of the dawning of the most glorious day of freedom the world has ever seen. they see the truth in its naked form, and they are quivering in their souls. The course of the U. N. I. A. and its illustrious founder during the last five years has not been strenued with roses, but in this we dolly, since the freedom will be more highly cherished on account of its being dearly won. Men in whom we felt we could have placed implicit trust have been put to the test and have been found wanting. We, however, realize that this period is the period of purification, the time when the real heroes, who are willing to die that Africa and the Negro might live, are being forged in the furnace of trial and opposition, and being fitted for the greatest, right against oppression and wrong that mortals have ever seen. Anxious men, our erstwhile lords, are carefully considering the Negro problem, as it is being aggravated by the clarion call of Garvey and his race awakening, and his great association with its soul-serving power, rousing the Negro in every corner of the globe where he resides. But their eyes are yet blinded and they cannot see that the Negro has been a problem, because some people forgot the Golden Rule as taught by the Golden Rule. And we by the Universal Negro Improvement Association, who follow the leadership of Marcus Garvey, have pledged that we should be the heaven which, shallouse, fill, enthuse, and animate the Negro everywhere, bringing him to a realization of the things the Creator expects of him. And we have further decided, in the light of God and the world, the Negro shall continue to be the gravest and the most puzzling problem ever given to humans, until the other peoples shall come to an acknowledgment of our rights as men, and be willing to code to us those rights of which we have been robbed for several centuries. We realize, too, that manasmus of brave men and noble women in every age, in every land, have bared their breasts in freedom's hollow cause, so too, the Negro must be prepared to make the supreme sacrifice, if need be, that his race might rise, that his fatherland might be free, that he, his children and his children's children may be able to rear in that land a government, strong, mighty, noble, resourceful, respect-commanding, clean, pure, righteous and just, sheering the situation and approving of our Divine Creator, who is a just and righteous God. Yes, there we shall rear an altar to that God and praise Him a man have never before. And towards this end our great and high leader, and the N. K. A. A. are only coming, and only value is meant to the world of Negroes at a time when all seemed dark, and dreams sweathing the plum and tiring our heart with new hope, piercing it and a nobler faith, each day seeks to lead us out of the lonely and darkness of the past into the alluring liberty of a new day of light and to disband. That voice calls us every hour to revealed effects for the uphill of the tread to the exhilaration of greater energy, perusal as well as physical, that the Negro might be the audience of the Creator, and to so have and work for humanity that we shall be blessing to all unmarried. There is no bond to all unmarried. has a champion voice for men who know how to offer and be strong, for men who know how to be trusting and faithful to a great ideal and who know how to live to make that ideal real; calling for N. men who have had the baptism of true blood and the spirit; will stand the test in the days of real and mighty of anguish; to short for men who will meet every requirement that is needful in the making of patriots real and true.

A. the cause 'goes' steadily on, because it is charged with a God-given mission and must move on from stage to stage till the Negro is free, indeed, and Africa is redeemed. If there ever was a time in the history of the Negro on this terrestrial hall when he can hear the voice of inspiration calling to him and leading the way to a great and glorious future, that time is now. That being the case he cannot afford to sit at ease and allow himself to be bullied to sleep again by the vain and cowardly closings of some of our spineless, jolly-dish so-called leaders, who lead no one and are in need of a guilding hand to bring them out of the darkness into the marvellous light of the new-found day of freedom edawning for the Negro. The clarion sounds in loud, unimaginable tones, Negroes, be ready! This is the festing time. We are being measured today. We are being schooled at this period for the greatest sight against oppression which has ever struck this planet. This race of Negroes must not fail, and under God, we shall not fail.

The Negro must be free. Africa must be redeemed, and the election call to the Negro people everywhere, the voice of the U. N. L.

Let us keep the faith, and tune our cars and our lives to the call of Marcus Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association, so that in that great drama we shall bear ourselves the noblest of the sons of God, for only so will this race reach its high ideals and acquire that place among men and nations which the Creator endowed us with powers to fill; yes, only so can, the Negro be truly freed and African redemption become an accomplished fact.

I saw strychnine sulphate and caffeine sodii, two power ul _ heart-tonics, administered ¢ the injection of atropine inte the shoulder, and other artificial measures to prolong her life. But no-human means could stay the march of death. And I saw her heart thake its two Inst desperate efforts to pump life through the dying body. 7 As she,lay in her casket I saw reflected in her face the nobility amsweetness that characterized hier character and life. Itwas high noon, with the sun shining brightly on a hill in’a Seau- -+itul- cemetery, from'which one could sec-a stream, a valley, woods and’ helds, 2 trolley line and Long Island beyond, when they laid her earthly remains in the ground. And I thought of the contyas’s of ‘life. The radiant sun, shining brightly on the beautiful lowers at the head and ‘foot of the grave, on the green grass, and the friends who gathered heside the grave; the balmy air, the.pleasant. breeze, the delightful scen- ery, and all the glories of a May day spoke of Nature's tenderness and energy ais aie ts is 2 ofa von ne though Ohl in'Yetrs, Was yet bright and alert in mind and brave in spirit, and'tore from me the dearest friend I ever had or ‘ever expect to have in this mortal life. I thought of the tragic contrasts of We, | “As we rode away from the cemetery L saw young, athletic men! playing baseball 'or running.

We realize that that will be eur! fate some day, and-yet we go about our business, purstie our pleastres | and beget children as if we were to live forever. ol ‘There is some life urge behind humanity. forcing it te held on ta! life as long as possible and to reproduce itveli in its offspring, so that) ay onevhuman soul steps off the.stage of-action one or two more hun | souls stép on the scene of activn.

Importance attached to the circular because of the strength of the klan in these parts. The mayor of this city has announced through the local paper that he is a klansman. The fly leaves being mailed to white citizens of this section acquaint them with the Knights of the White Light aim to see that all Race men and women are deported to Africa. They have vowed to force every one from America. Have Cunning Plans They believe they can put the scheme over if the plans they have laid are adhered to. These speculations included a program of convoking the Race that Africa would be a very nice place to which to emigrate. Then, too, America is to be made hard for the Negro Race. The members of the Knights of the White Light are warned that they must not hire any member of the Race; must not give him food, clothing nor shelter, even for money, must terrorise him, and generally treat him in so barbarous a manner that he will make up his mind that it's about time for him to be pulling out. When he has made up his mind, the Knights say they have got ships wailing to be at his service which will transport him to the jungle free if he hasn't got his fare. The circular reads: "Speakers or agents are to tell them of, the beautiful home across the Atlantic from whence they came. Nor is the press to be Idle: all manner of magazines, papers, pamphlets, calculated to excite a desire in them for a home across the pond, will be scattered among them." Make Our Own Lawall! And again: "We must send agents among the Negroes to encourage the emigration, by telling them of the delightful climate, and the rich soil, where cotton and all kinds of fruit grow wild. Where there are no white men to rape their women and lynch their men, and where they can have officers and make their own laws, and freedom will be sacrificed on the sunshine which is above their heads. The agents can persuade them to make preparations to go. Some Negroes will be found quite willing, for they can be made to feel dissatisfied with conditions as they are." "Transportation must be furnished them, or, if possible, have them to furnish their own ships. The pride of the Negro will cause him to play his own fare. By following this simple plan we can get rid of the Negro—this abominable race. This country has been the dumping ground of the world long enough. It is our move. Let us move forward to the king line, then when they jump them over, we will jump back again. "In the fewest words possible the purpose of our organization is to transport all 'Negroes' in the United States to Africa. As there is no law to compel the coon to leave unless he wants to go, the first step is to make him want to emigrate as suggested above. Every person who joins this order swears among other things to assist the coons to the conclusion that it is to their interest to place the Atlantic ocean between themselves and the members of the Knights of the White Light."—Chicago Defender. OLD MEN ARE BEING MADE "YOUNG" AGAIN Science Finds a Way to Restore Youthful Vigor to the Aged Without An Operation A way to restore youthful vigor to aged persons, without an operation on dangerous drugs, has been discovered by scientists. The new discovery is a simple, safe tablet preparation known as korex, which can be used by anybody at home, without the advice of a doctor. What it has done has brought more to us, as a health physical condition as I enjoyed at $5. I am apparently as applauded as $25. My overnight is better than for years. "A man in Chattanooga. Tenn. written: 'I have given korex a through trial and have given results. I feel like a 15-year-old.'" A citizen of Charleston, S. C., says: 'My tongue is not able to utter the praise heret should receive. It is a gobedon to suffering humanity. I feel the need of it, and yet I am it. The minds of men of the South are made many of them by women, who praise the discovery highly. Handles who have tested the treatment testify that its effects are soft quickly, sometimes within twenty-four hours. Distribution of the gentle harvest here is a special double-stress, actively by the Molena. Instruments, 1881 Motton bldg. Kennes City, Mo.

Gary, like other great centers, is continually undergoing many, changes, meeting many new people and having great gatherings that attract large crowds of people from far and near, yet on Tuesday evening, April 24, this little city had the most wonderful experience, the most spectacular crowd she has ever witnessed in her eighteen years of being. In the Froble School auditorium there gathered more than three thousand people of all races to listen to the greatest orator of the day, a man with a message for all the people there assembled alike. That individual, while small of stature, with no traces of any other blood than Negro blood, that noble sire who has a vision, who has a great message and a great duty to perform, who stands before the world and challenges the peoples of the world for a race of people who have been suppressed and looking and praying for leadership. We refer to the Hon. Marcus Garvey, President-General of the U. N. I. A. Mr. Garvey's short stay in Gary will forever live in the minds of the vast multitudes of people of Gary, for, taking the stand at 8:45 o'clock, he held his people spellbound until 10:15. He offered no compromise for his color, as many of our supposed leaders do, but met the issue of the day squarely and told the American white man that he had no grievance against him for the vast possessions he had acquired, but the white man must not interfere with him (his people) in trying to get that that is rightfully theirs. We can still hear his melodious voice as he says, "A coward can die a lot of deaths; a brave man dies but one." He showed an never before the great necessity of putting the program over, and when he had finished there were thousands, both white and black, who took a stand to help put the program of the U. N. I. A. over. The great band of the Gary Division marched through the streets at 5 p.m. and then to the Frobie School, which by 7:30 was crowded to overflowing. Among the visitors on this occasion was Division No. 313 of Chicago. The program was as follows: Prayer by Chaplain Jordan of the Chicago Division. "Shine On, Eternal Light" - Gary choir.

Ginsky THE VIRGIN ISLANDS THE VIRGIN ISLANDS Editor Daily News; Your editorial, entitled "The Sad Virgin Islands," appearing in the News for Saturday, April 28, is only one of the sad conditions under which the Virgin Islands suffer. Belonging to the United-States, it is natural that laws that affect us should also be the ones to lend the same aid to her possessions. The Virgin Islands are also sad about the unjust deportations of their loyal citizens; they are also sad about the preachments of democracy that are violated in the treaties through which they became a possession of the United States in that justice, freedom and liberty are curtailed to the sad regret of the Virgin Islands. The News has a clean-cut policy in dealing with wrongs that need resistance, and perhaps it may be able to use its good influence of bringing before the public conscience conditions that are end and an account of which there is interest in the Virgin Islands. An enlightened public opinion when made concious of and conditions resulting from these they put in office will correct the endure by showing its disapproval and bringing about the changes necessary. We will not covil about the marriage, lottery or drink. The first is a natural condition and is not dependent upon here; the lottery and drink were sources of revenue. These can be corroborated by the introduction of better conditions of trade and development. BURBERT J. COX 100 W. 140th St. New York City. museum in a while some one of the organizers of the League of Nations and other Wilsonian doctrines throws disregard to the truth and reveals the real motive back of all that propaganda. The most recent illustration of this is furnished by an interview in the New York World with Charles R. Crane. Mr. Crane was sent by President Wilson on a special diplomatic mission to Russia in 1917. He was one of Wilson's advisors at the Paris Peace Conference and was later named by Wilson as Ambassador to China. According to this interview, Mr. Crane is quoted as follows in part:— England is carrying too large a share of the white man's burden; almost every week fine Britons are being shot in the streets of Egypt and the finest of British generals. Lord Allorby, and the finest of British civil servants, those of the Soudan, are impotent. Britain cannot start any more war. The history of the last winter at Calroy, Constantinople and Lausanne has acted like a mirror to the brave British people. They know that they are responsible for more than they can manage. There is only one direction in which they can look for anything like adequate relief and that is to the West. But, unhappily, all we see here is our backs. If we could definitely assure England that we are sincerely sympathetic, that we will earnestly and immediately seek to be helpful to the utmost of our power, her drooping spirit would at once revive and we should regain our own self-respect. "HOW TO BEGIN THE SPIRITUAL 3rd Series of the Sermon, Worked Out from Rom. 12:1: 2 You that are consecrated to which influence are you submitting? The transforming influences lead to present sacrifice and suffering, but the end is glorious. If you are developing or growing under these transforming influences you are proving daily what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. Let such as have laid their all upon the altar of sacrifice continually in mind that, while the word of God contains both earthly and heavenly promises, only the latter belong to us. Our treasure is in heaven; let our hearts, continually be there. Our calling is not only to the spiritual, but to the highest order of the spiritual, the divine nature; so much better than the angels (II, Pet. 1:4 and Heb. 1:4). The heavenly calling is confined to the Gospel age—it was never made before it and will cease with its close. And the earthly calling was made though imperfectly understood before the heavenly calling, and we are told that it will be continued after the Gospel age. Life and immortality both both been brought to light through the gospel: Both the human and spiritual pictures will be glorious in their perfect- NOTICE Rev John B. Jemmott, of the Mission Church, 23 Third Avenue, Brooklyn, N. Y., got a seventeenth grilling on Thursday, April 25, 1823, when he appalled the three sons of Grazelia GREAVES in the case of GRAZELIA GREAVES et al., vs. Justina Husband, being tried before Justice Callaghan, in Special Term, Part 3, of the Brooklyn Supreme Court. parties to this suit are sisters and brother, being the sole surviving heirs of Mary Husband, who died in February, 1821. It was alleged in the complaint and proven on the trial that the Reverend Jemmott, two or three days after the death of his mother, gave together and together that the plaintiffs (Grazelia Greaves, Clara Tyrell and Sydney Husband) would have to dood their interests in their mother's property to the defendant (Justina Husband), their sister, in order to have the mortgage, taxes and these payments could not be made in the four children's names. That the children believed what the Reverend Jemmott said and subsequently deeded the property to their sister, believing that when the property was clear Jemmott, of course, denied he had missed the parties to this self; but made such poor showing and miserable explanation under cross examination that he was guilty of counselor Higgins, that it was clearly evident that the reverend had planned and engineered the scheme to get these people, for whom he was the spiritual and business adviser, to deed him the land and to deliver a clever misrepresentation of the facts, and for what utterior purpose was not disclosed upon the trial of the case, as same war not material to the issues of the case. He was at case while on the witness stand and sought to run to covert when the Court and Plaintiffs' Attorney propounded pertinent questions to the reverend which laid bare the cunningness with which he had been involved and in the heat of cross inspection breathing seemed labored and excited. After the Plaintiffs discovered that they were wrongly advised by the Reverend Jemmott, they sought to have their sister reconvey their interests in the property, who was helping influenced by the payer and subsequently living at the same address as the reverend's family, refused to reconvey, when suit to compel such reconvenance was brought in November, 1921. The case was rendered by Mr. Justice Callaghan on May 2, 1923, and appearing in the New York Law Journal of May 3, 1923, the blame for this entire affair is squarely placed on Jemmott and the Defendant, Justina Rathke, who is compelled to reconvey to the Plaintiffs, or the Plaintiffs later, their respective interests in their deceased mother's property, and thus will the cunning design of the Reverend Mr. Jemmott be defeated; but the tragic sadness of the matter remains, as a woman's happy intimacy is rent in which she is unwilling to produce insurance should have served to produce the opposite effect.

To my name and address. the then government in the world began the Blood was formed by a black spirit, Nimrod, grandson of Ham. He commanded the Bible, became a mighty male of the earth, and the beginning of the kingdom was Babylon. Bech, Aurel, and Caleb, four cities. The first empire in the world was founded and consisted of the four cities. Further we are told that this empire spread throughout the land of Shinar, with Nimrod as king. And we test we deceive ourselves into thinking that his efforts ended here, we are further informed that this was only the begin- ning of his kingdom. Here in the land of Shinar was the birthplace of government; here began the ruling power among Hamites; here was founded the cradle of civilization; here the beginning of the first-per- manent civilization of the world. And it was fished and brought forth by black men, and through them spread ever the then known world, with black men as king, ruler, governors and masters of the earth for knowledge is power wherever found or regardless by whom possessed. No historian with the slightest claim to bosomy will deny for a moment that the first kingdom in the world was set up in the Valley of Shinar, nor will he dispute the claim that Nimrod was its founder, its first king; nor will he deny that Nimrod was a Hamite, but he might attempt, unless you are well informed, to prove to you that Nimrod was not a black man. This we would expect him to attempt Nimrod developed civilization in Nimrod, Cush, his Fative, in Arabia; Nibraim in Egypt and out of his seed came, the unconquerable Phillistine. Then Phut, the third son of Ham, went into Africa and settled the country called by the ancients Lybia, and Canaan, the youngest son, settled the land of Canaan and was founder and pregnitor of the Canaanites, and all of those "ites," "vites," and "rites" that multiplied and covered the earth. Further, Canaan was the father of the Phoenician, the greatest merchants of their day, of whom Cadmus was one, and he taught the Greeks their alphabet. He was the founder of the city of Thebes with its hundred gates. The Hamites, therefore, gave the Greeks their letters and the world the present governing and prevailing other languages.

PRICE FOUR CENTS. a map, whether Phoenician or Egyptian, he was a Hamite—the Phoenicians through Canaan and the Egyptians through Maimal. As proof that the Hamites are the creators of the basic languages of the world, I cite the fact, which is indisputable, which is, that a people who first settle and civilize a country not only give its name but its language, and in this case there can be no exception. The different branches of civilization were for more than a thousand years developed along the line of Ham, and no one can prove to the contrary. Let us take the so-called "Hebrew tongue," which is unjustly called Hebrew, for it is not of Hebrew, but of Cananitish origin. To call it Hebrew is to rob the Cananitos of being the originage, of one of the principal languages of the world. To rob the Cananite is to rob the Hamite, and to rob the Hamite is to rob the black man, because the black race descended from the same root—Ham. As proof of this contestion I offer Isaiah, Chapter 19, 18th verse. Here he calls it the "language of Canaan." The language of the Hebrews was, in its chief feature, identical with that of the Cananites, who were the first to enter this land and who gave it its name, and this identify came about through the Hebrews learning the language of the Cananites. To suppose anything else is absolutely unreasonable, because Abraham was the first to be called Hebrew, and it was a name applied to him by the Canaanites, among whom he came to live. And his name was applied by Abraham to his descendants. In Genesis, Chapter 14, and verse 13, we find the first instance of the name being used, and it was there applied, as just stated, to Abraham. He did not use it or name himself, nor did he bring the name into the land of Canaan with him. We therefore again affirm that the word is of Canaanish and not Hebrew origin. Another strong proof in our favor is, in that the Hebrew learned and spoke the language of Canaan, for no place is the term "Hebrew language" found in the Old Testament, neither is it used by Abraham, Moses or any of the Old Testament writers. The Greek language was Hamilic because this language was taught the Greeks by a Hamilte-Cadmus, a descendant of Cannan, the fourth son of Ham. The basis of the Latin language is also of Hamilte-origin, because the Greeks the basis of the Latin. They depend upon each other as into the French, German, Saxon and English—all from the Hamilte-origin, planted in the world in the land of Shimar under Nimrod, the first king in the world, the grandson of Ham. In the infancy of the world we were the first to wrest from big robbers which men now would give tons of gold to have revealed to them, in this, the twentieth century. Today their chief pursuit is searching out what we are going to know to the full and forget. Ham also developed along the line of religion, the true religion. But it remained in his hands so long that he began to corrupt it. Elobim took it from him, played it into the hands of Shem, who carried Asmute into idolatry, and crucified God's own Son, their Saviour; then from Shem God removed it into the hands of Japhne, called the Gentiles, who are subservient to material uses and would crucify Christ again should He come among them. As proof of my other notation that the true worship was first among the sons of Him, and that it was there found and remanded in its priest form, I need only to point you to the Canaanites and the local of Canaan, Melchizekek is found in possession of it. He was the priest of the Most High God, Melchizekek was the first to apply this exalted and highly proper title to God. Others worshiped Him as God, but this priest calls Him the Supreme Ruler of the Universe, Jehovah, Elobim, Eiah, El Shadhi, the Creator of All Life, the Most High God, and Melchizekek was a Canaanite and priest of Salem. This man, of whom it is written, "he was without beginning or ending of days," was God's first high priest, and in such a pure form had he preserved the Word of God that Abbaom, the father of the faithful, gave him a title of all that he possessed on returning from the slaughter of certain kings, and Melchizekek blessed him. And it was after the order of Melchizekek that Christ became a priest, and Melchizekek was a Canaanite, the Canaanites were Hammites, therefore Christ became a priest after the order of a black man. As to the curse of Noah. You will remember that it was not Ham that was cursed, but Canaan, Ham's youngest son. Canaan was an absolutely innocent party. But since it was Canaan that was cursed, if the curse applied to any part of Ham's family, it applied to Canaan. It could not have applied to Phut, Cush, Mizraim, any one of the older sons. Then if it applied to only the family of him that was cursed, how can agamumnificent politicians and Negro-hating hamsters apply it to the entire race? Again had Noah intended to curse the whole race, he would have cursed Ham himself, so that the curse would have passed from father to son down through, the generations? For instance, if one wishes to destroy a tree he begins with the roots, and not with the youngest branches—and Canaan was the youngest son of Ham. But, granting to the cured applied to Canan; we nowhere find a single proof inside or outside of it where Cananag ever served his brethren. Nor is there any proof this side of hell that any of Cananag's children ever served the sons of them or foreign. If it cannot be paid of Africa, it fordescendants of Canaan never settled in Africa, but those of Cush ditch, and Cush was never cursed. And, furthermore, no man with an ounce of common sense believes this age-old lie about an old broken down, and foolish drunken old man who had so forgotten himself as to drink too much early-dely hooch and made a fool of himself before his family. I do not believe it and no amount of pulpit bellowing will ever persuade me to. God is good and just, if He is anything, and He would not be good and just if He gave His consent to much farce, but God is good and just, and I, therefore, do not believe this fossilized Hebrew Ile. As to slavery, the first person we read of being enslaved were the Shemites, and they were enslaved for 400 years under and by the Hamitites. You read of Greek and Roman and Anglo and Saxon slavery, but they were the sons of Janapet enslaving each other, and all slaves from the first down to a thousand years after the return to heaven of Jesus Christ were white slaves. - Read history with your reason and intelligence and not with your passion and prejudice. Read history written and promulgated by black men. They have no reason to lie to you. The so-called African slavery did not begin until the sixteenth century. It is, therefore, unjust to make the black man feel that he is the race that has ever suffered slavery. We do not deny that the black man has suffered a most damnable slavery, but we also hold with history as our indisputable, witness that every white race has also been enslaved, and it is a base he to tell the black man that he, and he alone has been bowed down by the weight of galling slavery, with the emptiness of the ages in his face and on his back the burden of the world. We have been proached to by both white and black ministers that those passages in St. Paul's Epistles where the words "master" and "servant" are mentioned that they refer to white masters and black servants. We of the Universal problem to you that this is a lie on its face. These words refer to Phlemon, a white slave, whom Paul sent back to his white master, Orestime. This phrase, servants obey your masters, has been used to force the black man to believe that he has ever been and will eternally be a blower of wood and carrier of water. Open your eyes, ye blind fools, your light is come and the glory, of the Lord is risen upon them, none are so blind as those who will not see or so deaf as those who will not hear, though having eyes to see and cars to hear. We intend to see to it that the Scriptures are no longer warped and twisted by ignorant and hide-bound Negro ministers, so that the Negro is made to believe that he is accursed of God and in the eyes of man's scarcely more than a head of burden, a race despised of both man and God. We are determined to have a clean and upright ministry, who believes in true purity and who will labor for it. We are determined to have in one point men who not only fear God, but who respect and lionize mankind. This we are going to have, even if we have to go our churches and wait for the rising generation to blossom into manhood and produce clean and intelligent ministers, unafraid, and who will place the welfare of those people above dollars and cents. And may God help us. You worthy men of God stand firmly. We are with you. We are behind on, but to the other sort we say about facts: get the fear of God into your hearts or find you a job, because the pulpit is no place for them. We will quit the church and turn pagan before we will support them. This Africa of which we have spoken is the goal of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, in the interest of the 76 million of black men of the world. Some say it is a dream a wild, fearful, frantic, fanatic dream. To the man who never dreams a dream is beyond his understanding. To a man who has no visions, to understand a vision is impossible. We believe in dreams, even as men of other days believed in dreams. We believe in visions, because we have visions. He who never dreams never accomplishes anything. He who is visionless is void of emotion, unless and dangerous. The world is a beautiful dream. Electricity was once a dream, only a dream. The steamboat was at one time only a dream: the steam engine once existed only as a dream, so it was with the automobile, the telephone, the talking machine, the street upon which we walk, the city in which we live, the clothes we wear. But these dreamers believed in their dreams and labored to have them come true. We, too, have our dreams; we dream of a free and redened Africa, and who is there able to say we will not realize it? Who can say? As a man believes in his heart, so is he. The great United States of America: its government was once a dream, struggling for existence in the fancy of the fathers of this country. They knew not how they would accomplish this gigantic task, the desire of their hearts, but it is accomplished. Who is there to say that the dream which now struggles for the fullness of manhood in the fancy of the Universal Negro Improvement Association will not also become a reality. God moves in a mysterious way, and we do believe in God. Visiones: Copernicus had a vision of a multiplicity of worlds and discovered them; Budeda had a vision of a beautiful apictical world and entered it; Columbus had a vision of a new world and discovered it; your old men shall dream dreams and your young men shall see visions. Without dreams and visions nothing worth while is possible. Dreams and visions are the stalk out of which hard deeds are wrought. God help us to dream dreams and to see visions. OUT OF THE DARKNESS If the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League were local organizations merely engaged in social dances, literary debates, good and welfare, sick benefits and burial of the dead, this article would not be written. If the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League had failed in the past to rise to the needs of the hour, or by a limited foundation expressed a narrow view as to their possibilities, the forces with which they had to contend or expect to encounter in the future would cease to alarm themselves, and so, inquiring whether they can ultimately reach their goal. The indisputable fact that they have won confidence by their beliefs, principles, outlook and the big task they have grappled with should set at rest the questions that repeat themselves from time to time. That the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League are on the defensive is no fault of theirs; it is apparent without effort to see that attacks, have been made not on the issues which they have started out to improve, correct or abolish; they have concerned themselves with individuals, methods and plans. Therefore, it is the duty of those who inspire, direct or lead these organizations and their branches or divisions everywhere to welcome every shade of opinion and discussions, as well as constructive criticism; the ground on which they stand is brought out plainly, and the opposition must, by necessary, state their case fully. The Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League believe that the history of slavery, ignorance, poverty and a low place in the present arrangement of society as they affect Negroes everywhere can only lust as long as Negroes allow them to continue; in other words, allowing for every drawback, the position you now hold is entirely up to you to change. It can be done and is being done—stand back, please, from the light and watch yourself doing it—hard at first, but you will soon get the habit of expecting big things from yourself and actually accomplishing them. These organizations have set themselves the task of bringing about these changes, and have indirectly played the most leading role of the twentieth century. In lifting the veil of darkness that has shrouded us, they brought to Kibiopia, the jewel of the ocean, The land of the true and the brave, My heart hearts with ardent devotion While the red, black and green over three waves.

Thy sons in mount universal Both claim thee for eternity; Thy children of the dispersal Are returning from over the sea With a mighty determination That Africa's land be ever free; With a wonderful civilization That shall make thee the gem of the sea. We have bled and died for every nation And won for them liberty; We have saved earth's civilization. Now turn our eyes unto thee. May God in His might go before us, As we come our land to redeem; Make the despot tremble before us As we advance, with the red, black and green.

Marcus Garvey, like unto other great and heroic souls, is going through the fire of persecution, the fire of trial and tribulation; but he will triumph; he must triumph. Four hundred million black men and women are praying for him to triumph. He, too, has seen a vision of a liberated black race, free and homeward bound, not today, not tomorrow, but in that day when the word of God shall be fulfilled when He said, "Princes shall come out of Egypt and Ethiopia shall soon stretch forth her hands unto God!" Unless the Lord buildeth the city the builder buildeth in vain; unless the Lord keepeth the city the watchman waketh but in vain. Marcus Garvey has seen a vision of a free and redeemed Africa, and he will realize it. UNLUCKY?

Nigrocs everywhere will now skilfully parry, the wild onslaughts of friend and foe alike, then with lightning-like rapidity your rapier must find las mark. This is a superb game in which we were participants as individuals, but now carry, on with organized intelligence. Once in a while we have to stop and demonstrate our tact, shrewdness and ingenuity. Can anyone see why the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League are here to stay, and destined to leave a creditable trail on the sands of time? Step back, brother and sister. Time is not yet opportunity to test your devotion and loyalty; play the part you now have able and play it well. In the course of events we have to compare individuals and retrospect on nations; the tide of human affairs carries with it the truth of ages. The cycle of time turns its highest point lowest, and in its continued circle again brings the lowest point highest. Have patience. And now comes Dr. Charles Flescher, in the New York American: "For ages Japan had contributed art, literature, philosophy to the refinement of life, and had proven herself a 'civilized' nation. "But when she showed that she could fight and kill and more than hold her own in modern warfare, then she was 'recognised' and given a respected place in the family of nations." The Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League aim at universal brotherhood; but in a practical world, where the human race has not advanced to a higher spiritual plane in its development, they believe each racial group should use every means to attain individual power, commercial strength, scientific advancement, military and naval skill. From the great heights on which man has elevated himself in his overlordship, of his brethren, he has set boundaries, divisions, persecutions, extraclin and hates to insure his safety. Will they always stand? The conflicts as they rage north, south, east and west will now find the sons of Ham and daughters of Ethiopia one in the Supreme Being that controls the universe—one in aim, one in destiny.

Our motherland is pleasing. Pleading to her-sons and daughters, Asking us to feed her groaning, For the toll she pays in child-life. When a mother is unable to suckle her baby and has to resort to bottle-feeding, it is absolutely necessary for her to obtain a milk formula from her doctor, a trained nurse or a milk station, since the proportion of the food principles in cow's milk differs from those in human milk. It is also well for her to remember that a healthy baby should gain after the first week of life from four to eight ounces weekly until six months old. The mother now collects the necessary equipment for the modification of her baby's milk: bottles, fork, spoons, funnel, small package of sterile cotton, a two-quart pitcher and a graduate or measuring cup. She should proceed as follows: Take bottle of milk from ice-box, wash the top with boiled water and remove paper cap with a sterilized fork. Into a graduate which has been boiled she measures the amount of milk required for the day's feeding (24 hours). The milk is then poured into the pitcher, which has been boiled. The required amount of cold boiled water or barley water or any other cereal water, as per formula, must be measured in the graduate and added to the milk in the pitcher; sugar of milk or cane sugar, as per formula, measured with a sterilized spoon, poured into the pitcher and stirred well with a sterilized spoon. Have as many bottles sterilized as feedings necessary for the baby in 24 hours, fill each with the amount necessary for one feeding, and stopper the bottle with pleadges of sterile cotton.

COOKER WASH- NT ASSOCIATION THE NEWS AND VIEWS OF U.N.I.A. DIVISION U. N. I. A. CHIEF IN BRITISH GUANA RETURNS FROM TWO MONTHS' TOUR (The Daily Chronicle) As was briefly stated in our Saturday's impression, the Rev. Dr. R. H. Tobitl, High Commissioner of the Eastern Provinces of the West Indies and the Guiana in connection with the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League, returned to the colony on Friday last by the R. D. M. S. Nickeler from Dutch Guiana, whither he had been on an official visit to the division established in that colony. Seen by a representative of the Daily Chronicle yesterday, Dr. Tobitl was loud in his praise of the hospitality which he had received both from the government and people during his seven weeks' stay in their midst, and gave the following interesting narrative of his visit to that colony: "I left here on my first official visit to Dutch Gulane on January 7, last and on my arrival at Paramaribo I was well received by the officers and members of the division as well as by the citizens who had gathered in large numbers to awaits my arrival. I then motored from the stelling to the hall, which, although of a large size, could not accommodate more than one-fourth of the crowd which had gathered there. After a most enthusiastic welcome, I was put up at the Hotel Horst, which is considered the leading hotel of that town. A few days after my arrival there I was officially received at Government House by His Excellency the Governor and was given the freedom of the colony. While the guest of the Governor I discussed with him matters relating to the advancement and progress of the Negroes in that colony with good results. The organization is fully recognized by the Dutch Government, which I find gives every scope to Negroes. They are found in every walk of life and there is aplendid intermity between the whites and Negroes there. I also visited various settlements on the Suripham and Saramaca rivers and penetrated as far as the bush Negroes. At each settlement I visited the Commissaries of Police, or Deputy Governors extended a most cordial welcome, and I would like to make special mention of Commissary Simons and his tailable wife for the reception they gave me and my staff in their home. On landing thara I was met on the wharf by Commissary Simons, who gave me an address of welcome. I delivered a lecture on the aims and objects of the association, Commissary Simons and wife gracing the function with their presence, and at the close he fully indorsed the Garvey program, encouraged the residents to join and entertained me and the president of the local division, the Rev. H. Algernon, at dinner. Among the Bush Negroes I received an enthusiastic welcome from the bush Negroes under their governors and captains. In one place a new road was constructed prior to my arrival there for me to first pass over as a souvenir on the occasion of my visit. The women spread their headgear in the way, as well as palm branches. This was also done at the other places and forcibly reminded me of the fact that the same people who had accorded such a welcome to the Victor on His entry into Jerusalem had shortly afterwards cried "Cruelty Him!" The latter treatment was, however, not meted out to me by the bush Negroes during my stay in their midst. I was very favorably impressed by the perfect discipline which prevailed among them, the honor paid to the superior officers and the sanitary conditions which exist. I also found that the children were more dutiful and respectful to parents there, more so than in many recognized civilized communities.

The division there was established about 15 years ago, but the unveiling of the charter issued by headquarters had to await my arrival. During my sojourn in Paramaribo I delivered lectures at the King Theatre, Bello Vue, and staged an entertainment at the Theatre Thalaa, the largest and most popular theatre in the city, which was successful from every point of view. Among the items presented was the tableau "Ethiopia." with flashlight effect, which, it will be remembered, was staged in this city under my guidance some time ago. The children of highly respectable people in that colony took part and the exhibition on the whole was pronounced by the people of Paramaribo as the most unique they had ever seen. At the unveiling of the charter in respect to the local division there were also unveiled lifesize portraits of the Hon. Marcus Garvey, founder of the organization, which was done by a Dutch colored artist, and Her Majesty the Queen of the Netherlands. My visit to Dutch Gulana has brought in over 300 members to the local division. A: Rousing Sendoff My departure from Surham was an enthusiastic as my arrival. The officers and members of the local division and a large number of friends and citizens assembled on the water front and remained there for fully three hours before the steamer left that port. In the interval they sang patriotic songs of the U. N. L. A., including the Ethiopian National Anthem. On my arrival I was given a rousing ovation, after which I added: the gathering and took the opportunity of proudly expressing my gratitude to the authorities and citizens of Surham and the officers and members of the local division for the many courtesies which had been extended to me during my stay in that colony. I also referred to the high merits of the Hon. Marcus Garvey, the founder of the movement, and assured them that wherever I go I shall always have pleasant reminiscences of the good people of Surham, who had done so much in advancing the program of the U. N. L. A. The farewell function was then brought to a close with the singing of the Dutch National Anthem PHILADELPHIA DIV. CELEBRATES THIRD ANNIVERSARY OF UNIVERSAL AFRICAN BLACK CROSS NURSES --- Too much cannot be said about the progress of the Philadelphia Division U. N. I. A. under the leadership of the master and chiefly Dr. Lloyd A. France. The officers and members of this branch thoroughly appreciate his value, and note with renewed goal the progress of the community, especially along the line of business and the human service rendered. Dr. France attributes his success to the heavy cooperation of the officers and the faithfulness and determination of the members. It is with the greatest amount of pleasure that we listen to the expressions of "fatha in the cognition of Africa's lot ideals." Philadelphia stands out as a timing light for the U. N. I. A. in the fact that most of the prominent doctors, lawyers and business men of this city are active members. Sunday, May 6 was a gala day for this division, when the Legions Motor Corps and all the other auxiliary corps of the Universal African Black Cross Nurses, who were respondently arranged in their white uniforms, in the far end of the church to turn and hold, they behold the arrival of the Rev. Dr. Carter of the parent body, who was requested to preside for the occasion. Dr. Carter took for his to: "And he went a little further." Thus he proved himself master of his profession and worthy of his position as first vice-president of the New York Local. This sermon long be remembered by all who heard it as being instructive yet tempered with humour of a mild and innocent nature, and those who did not hear it missed a treat. The evening was equally interesting because the Rt. Hon. Rudolph E. Smith, Third Assistant President General and titular West Indian leader, who had that day twice spoken in Camden, N. J., addressed another large gathering in our Liberty Hall. Mr. Smith took his audience for a trip around the world, landing them in Sunny Africa amidst shouts of "Go on!" "Preach it!" "Yes, sir!" "Amen!" He is known here as a student of international affairs. Philadelphia has pledged itself to be the "leader/division of the U. N. I. A. in the next twelve months. REPORTER.

Mesa Divlation, though small, is just as eager to give her support to the association to help push this program in a hurry as the larger ones are. Oh! why don't our people wake up and use just a little common judgment, or, as the popular slang says, just common horse sense, and see our condition the world over? Why don't we take the exodus of the Jews or Hebrews for an example for ourselves and profit thereby? Why will we wander around here in this waste, in this wilderness of sin until we all die? Why don't we just make up our minds to redeem our dear home land and go about doing it? That I had the finance at my disposal. I'd willingly, yes. I'd gladly give every cent toward the speedy putting over of this program. Oh! why will our rich men stand here idle and unconcerned while other alien races are mady rushing to our native land, gobbling up her riches, while her own dusky-hair sons and daughters are scattered hither and thither in other lands, where they are not wanted? Why don't they invest their money in something in Africa, where it could some day benefit the race, instead of investing here in Argentina or West Indies or elsewhere other than Africa? We see America has no more use for us. We've felled our forests, we've tilted her soil, we've helped her to make America bud and blossom as the rose, and now she's saying in ways and actions, "Mr. Nigger, I have no need for you, now I can help myself, so you root, hog, or die."

JACKSON TILFORD Chicago was entertained the past week by a bird man, an airplane expert, sitting high in the air, writing on the scroll of space, forming letters on high by a smoke apparatus that the millions of people beneath might read. This was surely something to marvel at, and goes to prove to the thinking mind that there is no limit to the possibilities of man, races or nations. Fifty years ago, if you mentioned such a thing to your friends and neighbors they would have looked at you in pity and thought your head needed examination. There are many. Negroes today whose vision extends no further than the end of their nose, who can see no future or possibilities, for the race other than to remain "flowers of wood and draowers of water." The other races, with rapid transportation, communication, wireless, airplane and radio, are making history. You have one great Negro among you, though many of you hate him because you don't understand him, who is making history for you.

Considerable enthusiasm was manifested from start to finish, as the players not only entertained their admirers, but interested them also. It is encouraging to note the keen interest that Montrealers are showing in dramatics and that the U. N. I. A. hall, which is the only center for regular entertainments, is able to meet the needs of various clubs. Mr. J. Marshallleek, a prominent piano tuner of the city, and ardent supporter of the organization, deserves some credit for directing the plays and promoting popular interest. Interspersing the productions was good music furnished by Dyallo's orchestra. The program: 1—April Fools. Mr. Dumbrowne..... E. E. Gilpin Mr. James Smith..... R. Scale Mr. Joseph Smith..... Wm.

LECTURE II, ON The Transition From By PROF. WILLIAM H. Editor's note. -- Unfortunately the first page of Prof. Hart's lecture has been misplaced. Probably that page referred to the development from private vengeance to contracts or legal redress for their violation. In this history of criminal law this development may be, perhaps, more clearly traced than in any other department of jurisdiction, since wrongs or crimes claimed the attention of primitive man long before he had begun to think of the possibility of contracts, or of legal redress for their violation. The author, the judge that there have been three well-marked stages in the evolution of criminal law: 1. The era of vengeance. 2. The stage at which vengeance is evolving place to justice. 3. The time when pyrite comes to be seasoned by mercy and humanity. The first laws when man makes deal with murder and theft, and other offences against the rights of his fellow man, which we call crimes. For instance, the Amelia-Klaven laws show that in judicial proceedings, the only types of general importance dealt with in that period were magnifying, wounding, and cattle-stealing. The gradual advance from the crude customs of savage trades, through many stages of progress, to the highly complex system of today, has left footprints on our way which we can still discover, and so retrace the path along which the development has come. It was a saying of Plato that past time is the maker of states, and it is no less true that past time is the maker of laws. To put it in another way, laws are not made, they grow. Says the Ency, Brit, Art, Law, Ed. 1882; "Formal legislation comes late in the history of most legal systems. Law is generated in other ways which seem irreconcilable with anything like legislation. "No mental attitude is more common than that which regards law as a natural product, discoverable by a diligent investigator much in the same way as the facts of science of the principles of methematics. "The introductory portions of Jus- the Universal Improvement Association. Garvey's messages are broadcast throughout the continent of Africa by means of those radio drums." There is Negro history for you. The voices of one Negro crying out against the oppression of his people the world over has spanned, the entire globe.

Miss Amie Desfield is by nature endowed with artistic capacities and Montrealers always like to hear her. Mrs Julien showed naturalism. Her exhibition added charms to her acting. The first act was a force and the three players took their parts credibly, especially Mr. Glipin. Who made his character a vivid reality. Mr. Trott would make a good Bert Williams.

The function was given by the executive of the club, in honor of the guests, who comprised the representatives of other clubs and organizations. The evening was spent enjoyably. Mr. Dean Thwaites, the president, acted as master of ceremonies and in a forceful manner outlined the aims of the club. He was ably seconded by Mr. Alfred Potter, who made an earnest appeal for better cooperation and keener interest in political events. The ladies pledged their support to the club. Toasts were proposed to the king, the guests and to the club by the respective gentlemen Messrs. Blackman, McIntosh and Potter. Following was a series of short addresses by club representatives: Mrs. L. Hall La Cercle Musicale; Meadams Bonner and Taylor; L. N. I. A. Literary Club; Mrs. Gaspard, Phyllis Wheatley Art Club; Mrs. Walters, Woman's Benevolent Club; Mr. Deshield, G. U. O. of O. F.; Mrs. Crawford, Household of Ruth; Mr. Sealy, U. N. I. A.; Mrs. Morrisk, Willing' Workers' Club; Charles Easte, The Negro World. Dr. Gaspard, who rendered a piano selection at the opening of the banquet, also expressed his appreciation of the evening and good wishes to the Colored Political Club. CHARLES II. ESTE. tinlan's Institutes are certainly written from this point of view, which may be also described without much unfairness, as the point of view of German jurisprudence." Sava Amos, in his Science of Law, page 49: "It is a matter of historical observation that long before any supreme political authority has come into being, a series of practical rules determine the main relations of family life, the conditions of ownership, the punishment of the more violent forms of moral wounding, and the adjustment of contracts." "The mode in which such rules are formulated seems to be the following: A spontaneous practice is first followed, and if good and useful is generally copied over and over again, the more so as habit and association always render the imitation of an old and familiar practice easier than inventing a new and untried one." Law is evolved out of custom, which grows up spontaneously, takes form by degrees, and is ultimately crystalized in a written law. "This process manifestly the work of ages, but there is also at times a relapse to a primitive custom, utterly brutal and savage in its origin and nature. An instance of this exceptional manifestation is seen in the practice of "lynching" which exists in the Southern part of the United States. Says Maine in his Ancient Law, page 15, section 18: "Codes succeed customary law at certain stages of progress in each community. Laws engraved in tablets and published to the people take the place of usage." "The Roman Code embodied the existing customs of the Roman people," and it is now established that the laws of Solon and Lycurgus, and other famous law givers of antiquity, were not laws originating with them, but codes in which they consolidated the practices and customs of the people which they found established in their day. And when Solon was told that he had not in some cases made the best laws, his reply was that he had made the best laws that the Athenians would observe. So King Alfred "collected, it is said, the various customs that he found dispersed in the kingdom and reduced and digested them into one uniform system or code of laws in the Dombee or Liber Judiciales." The notion of justice had not yet dawned on the mind of the primitive man. If he were asked to define it his answer would resemble the Behuaiana savage's reply to the traveler who has asked him his notion of goodness. When the question was put to him "at first he was much puzzled, but finally answered: "To be good is to possess a wife and cows; and to steal one's neighbor's wife and cows." The savage's notion of law and justice corresponds, to his stage of mental development, and in these matters he has the mind of a child. The conception of law to foreign to Horper. The later Greek words fit it thomas, retra), are unknown, and the lesmes the following merely "warns" "Judicial functions, are in the hands of the edicts, who have to do with sults, and "shield judgment." "On such matters as compensation in the cases of homicide it is evident that there are no rules, but merely a feeling created by use and, more than the relatives of the slain man should be willing to accept payment." (The Homeric word Dike meant "custom"—in later time it came to mean law, order, right. Dikeis is "vengeance." Dikephorus is "an avenger," but in Plato's day dikaloane had come to mean "Justice." "Righteousness." Possessing no notion of justice or law, neither has the savage any notion of crime in the modern sense. The idea of crime manifestly can only arise in a community possessing some degree of social organization and public opinion and some dawning sense for law and justice. At a later stage we find that any crime, even murder, might be atoned for by such a sum of money as satisfied the representatives of the murdered man. But this practice implies that the community in which it is found in operation has advanced far beyond the primitive condition of savagery, and has attained a certain degree of social and political organization. Beginning with vengeance unchecked and unlimited, the next steps, as Lubbuck says, to limit the vengeance, which is done by the lex tollious. The idea of compensation or atonement is manifestly a natural development from the lex tollious, which would gradually become more and more difficult of application as society grew more complex. The principle of retaliation thus always had a strong hold on the human mind. In Greek, as well as Hebrew literature, this is very evident. It is commented on by Aristotle in the Ethics.

The unit that accomplishes the most each month will receive the banner. The Royal, Guards gained the highest stand for the month of April and was presented with this banner by the President-General, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, last Tuesday evening, who in part bestowed credit on the guards for the good effort put forward in trying to win; for it showed the determination on the part of the make-up of the guards to achieve that which they go after. Colonel W. Wazley, after receiving the banner, informed the President that the guards stand as one man in their determination to keep the banner forever more. Amen! A parade was staged by the guards and the prize was carried at the head of the line. They were the recipients of great applause and cheers.

HILKY STAR ```markdown ``` From the Community Service, 318 Fourth Avenue, New York City) Magical people in America are divided into two classes as to the potentialities of Negro and Indian music on a basis for an exclusively American style of composition. Many believe that much a characteristic style cannot be evolved from the existing music of those racial groups. Others, particularly certain composers, just as ardently maintain the contrary view and strive to back it up with compositions based upon such thematic material. Irrespective of what may be the right or wrong in this controversy the Negro and Indian music, is of great interest in itself. Many persons in speaking of Negro music are inclined, to think of it as consisting solely of Negro spirituals. They are, possibly ignorant of the wealth of composition by Negro composers, both those which are based upon the spirituals and other Negro themes and music, which not Negrold in character or in any way connected with or expressive of racial feeling or idiom. For that reason it is hoped that this compendium of music by Negro composers may be enlightening not only to many of the colored groups which are not familiar with all of the music that their race has produced, but also to Americans in general who may be unacquainted with the treasures that are contained in the storehouse of Negro music. It is hoped that such better acquaintance with this music will lead to the performance of it by both the colored groups, which are the best interpreters of the distinctively Negro music, and by the white groups, which may perform many of such works with good effect. In the latter case it is well for such groups to bear in mind a warning given by those who are best acquainted with the inner spirit of the Negro spirituals. The best way for a white group to sing Negro compositions is to sing them naturally and without any attempt to imitate the spontaneous performance of such music by the colored people themselves. Use by Churches and Clubs For the past eight years there has been a steady increase in the number of services by church choirs given over to sacred compositions of Negro composers for vocal solo, chorus, pipe organ and violin. Many of the women's clubs have devoted a few minutes of certain sessions to the performance of religious compositions by Negro composers, especially the simpler choral works. An effective representation is thereby given to the religious aspirations of the colored people through the contributions made by the Negro composers. Examples of Special Programs Certain of the colored groups operating locally under Community Service auspices have presented special programs of Negro music that may serve as guides in the modeling of other such programs. For example, a "Festival of Negro Music" was presented in New Haven, Conn. by a community chorus with a visiting soloist. The numbers listed were the following: 1. "America" (audience participating), "The Viking Song," S. Coloridge-Taylor, "Dig My Grave," H. T. Burleigh. 2. "I Couldn't Hear Notbody Pray," Community Chorus. 3. "A Thousand Years-Ago," R. Nathaniel Dett; "A Little Gray Road of Love," Turner J. Layton; "Oh My Love," H. T. Burleigh, soprano solo. 4. "Listen to the Lamb," R. Nathaniel Dett, Community Chorus. 5. "I Want to Be Ready," Community Chorus. Part H-1. "Every Time I Feel the Spirit," Carl R. Diton. 2. "Kashibir Song," H. T. Burdigh; "An Explanation," C. Coleridge-Taylor; "Ah, Wonderous Morn," Creamer and Layton (manuscript), soprano solo. 3. "Swing Along," Will Marion Cook, Community Chorus. 4. "Music in the Mine," R. Nathaniel Dett, Community Chorus. 5. "Swing Low, Swing Charot," Frederick J. Work; "Steal Away."

Emotional Significance of the No one can hear the Negro spirituals, authentically performed, without feeling the deep spiritual significance of these folk songs which reveal, so tellingly the religious nature and experience of the people from whom they have sprung. As Henry T. Burleigh, one of the leading Negro musicians and editors of the spirituals, has pointed out: "More than ever today the spirituals, ought to be sung because they supply a note of spiritual exaltation that we need in the midst of the enthele interpretation of the spirituals, therefore, in one in which this motif of exaltation is preserved. Collections of Negro Spirituals the post-war material. The au- Groups desiring to take up the study and the performance of Negro spirituals may best utilize existing collections of this type of music. For instance, all inexpensive perennial volume of spirituals is "National Jubilee Melodies," published by the National Baptist Publishing Board, 52nd second avenue, Nashville, Tenn. The spirituals are also found in the following books: "Negro Folk Songs for Mixed Voices," volumes 1 and 2, pub- lished by Work Brothers, Nashville, Tenn.; "New Jubilee Songs as Sung by Fisk Jubilee Singers of Fisk Uni- versity," collected and arranged by Frederick J. Work, Fisk University, Nashville, Tenn.; "Religious, Folk Songs of the Negro as Sung on the Plantation," arranged by the musical directors of the Hampton Normal and Agricultural Institute, and published by The Institute Press, Hampton Va.; "Jubilee and Plantation Song," char- teristic favorites sung by Hampton students, Jubilee Singers, Fisk Uni- versity students and other concert companies, Oliver Dilson Company, Boston, Mass.; "Negro Folk Songs recorded by Natalie Christ Earle books 1 and 2, spirituals, books 3 and 4, work and play songs, G.

In the succeeding list of Negro composers by one of the leading Negro composers they arrangements cover both the form of soin comos, and that of citations for choral forms. The composers are listed in alphabetical order and each name is given the various old diseases of musical form into which his composition fall. One of the composers, Colbyridge Taylor, is an English Negro; the others are Americans. The composition which follows in this blitzet is not to be taken in any sense as being complete, either as to the composers or to the compositions from this group.

SEX TRUTHS Sex, the Basis of All Personal Power Divine and Holy in Its Nature The First of a Series of Articles of This Most Vital Subject Written in the Interest and for The writer is deeply appreciative of the opportunity offered by the Negro World for the publication of a series of articles on the subject of Sex. As an introduction to this series, I shall briefly state my position in the matter, my authority, source of knowledge, and reason for interesting myself particularly in the instruction of the colored peoples at this time. My authority was conferred on me when ordained as a minister in the Temple of Illumination an organization duly chartered by State and Federal authority as an educational and religious body. Race regeneration through the proper use and correct understanding of the creative function of sex is one of its fundamental doctrines. The school is of most ancient origin, dating back to the Atlantian period, embracing the inner interpretation of the Mosaic laws and the mystical interpretation of the teachings of the Master Jesus. My source of knowledge is from this school, of which I have been a student for the past twelve years. In nothing which I shall write will there beaught for which, I would claim originality. For full details and move definite instruction all readers are referred to such books as "Race Regeneration—Mystery of Sex." "Divine Alchemy." "Making Health Certain." "Dist, the Way to Health," and "Mastership," by Dr. R. S. Clymer, and published by the Philosophical Publishing Co. Quakertown, Pa. Primarily my reason for interesting myself in the instruction of the colored people along these lines is that they are interested in receiving the instruction, a fact which has been proven by the interest grouped by a similar series published some time ago in the Negro Times, and also by individual interest of a good number BOOK SUNDAY AT LIBERTY HALL Edited by AMY JACQUES-GARVEY ALL DAY SUNDAY AT LIBERTY HALL Morning Services at 11 o'Clock; Afternoon Meeting at 3.30, and Evening Mass Meeting at 8.15 THIS BOOK IS A WONDERFUL RECORD OF WORLD CHANGES AMONG NEGROES EVERYBODY IS READING IT It Will Help You to Become a Better Person It Will Inspire You You Will Live a New Life After Reading This Book GO TO LIBERTY HALL 120 West 138th Street, Next Sunday AND BUY A BOOK with help upon personal instruction every Thursday evening in room 21. Public school building, 455 Learn Avenue, close to which all are certainly invited. There is also an inner or. Memory. also of this teaching and as a further evidence of the similarity of the students they have been allowed to enroll in and become members of the inner temple. "Fellowship of Metachrist." To those who have realized a source of power which has for various reasons been withheld from them, this should prove of great interest and incite to further inquiry and investigation. With this introduction and a further word indicating that I shall write freely and fully, without, regard for the feelings of those over-modest souls who think that sex is not to be mentioned, except behind closed doors and in the dark. proceed directly to the subject in hand. The need of sex instruction cannot be denied in the face of present day conditions. The stupendous work of the Hon. Marcus Garvey and his coworkers will stand out in history as equal in every respect to that of other historical characters who were great leaders and organizers, and the opposition, difficulties, and oppressions with which they meet, are but evidences of the worthiness of, their cause, for, "Conflict and struggle are a means to strength." However, in the building of a new nation it will be well if attention is given to the vital elements and conditions which have caused the downfall of the old nations. That "history repeats itself" is due only to the fact that those who make history have thus far failed to learn the lessons which history would teach, and will only be true until such time as some nation, some race becomes sufficiently wise to grasp the truth and live it, thus avoiding the gills which have been directly responsible for the fall of the greatest of past civilizations and is even now fast weakening our present races. This great and all important factor is none other than sex. Down through the ages it may be traced until at the present time you will find this divine gift manifesting as an actual peril, weakening the white race, causing the birth rate to decline, and exerting other sinister influences which will be considered later in this series, while your own writers, physicians and statist- steps are asking, "Are our women becoming sterile, let us help rate declining?" and one commenting on the prevalence of venereal diseases among colored men and women thus indicating that your people have not escaped the world mans for indulgence for sense gratification only, regardless of its cost in health, mental and spiritual degeneracy and decadence of race type. Leaders and people of the colored race, I ask you in all sincerity, do you think it possible to found a "new nation," rise to superior and supreme power, take your place in the front ranks of the super race, which must and will develop in the course of coming generations, when such questions as the above are alarmingly necessary, when birth rates are declining and sex perversions, the vileest known in all history, are being openly practiced, and the basis of most confluent relations, that of physical gratification, without the penalty of children? Do you think you can rise upon that which has caused the downfall of others? Is not this subject worthy of the place of "Keystone in the Arch"? To think otherwise is to believe that the house built upon the sand can stand the storm. Sex is the rock upon which that which is to be permanent must be builted. We stand ready to disseminate these teachings to the few or the many, and have heroin indicated truths and possibilities, which, if headed by thoge in authority, who can open the way whereby the masses may be instructed, will thereby confer upon posterior its greatest boon and place themselves in the front ranks of world progress with names indelibly written upon the pages of time. The founding of a new nation or the rebuilding of the old will only be permanent in the degree that sex purity is taught and lived. Sex has been considered as physical only. Without prejudice to its physical attributes, we say that sex has its spiritual significance. It has its direct application to man as a four-fold being, body, mind, spirit and soul. Sex is sacred; sex is divine; sex, the creative force in man, allies to God. Through six man may create not only his kind, but he may create health for himself and his loving mate; he may create success or, any other desired condition through its power used in love, and he may recreate himself; sex, regenerate himself, thus effecting di- OOK SUNDAY AT ERTY HA 120 West 138th Street EVERYBODY MUST GET A Philosophy and Op OF ARCUS GARV Lited by AMY JACQUES-GARV BIG DEMONSTRATION SUNDAY AT LIBERTY Services at 11 o'Clock; ing at 3.30, and Evening Meeting at 8.15 K IS A WONDERFUL R AND CHANGES AMONG NEC ERYBODY IS READING Help You to Become a Better It Will Inspire You Have a New Life After Reading GO TO LIBERTY HALL West 138th Street, Next Su AND BUY A BOOK PRICE: VER, $1.25 CLOTH CO PUBLISHED BY BOOK DEPARTMENT AL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT 56 West 135th Street NEW YORK CITY CORNS REMOVED DR.

Upon the sterility or predilection of any race depends the importance of the numbers she constructs. With obedience to divine law, as applied to the creation of new beings depends the kind and type, mental, physical mental and spiritual, and heism in the nature which determines real perseverance, power, goodness, greatness and immortality. Thus we see that sterility is but one feature to be considered, and possibly the most easily overcoming. Lack of virility in men is of equal importance, for why blame poor woman for being starile when perhaps she is wedded to an impotent, ambitionless male. Of greater importance than either is the knowledge of that higher use through which not only will more and healthier children result, but higher race types, children naturally endowed with superior mental and spiritual powers, and at the same time benefits such as already mentioned to the fathers and mothers, thus working in accord with divine law. Teach them both to rebuild their weakened powers and instruct in right use. This can be done. The subject will be further considered in subsequent articles.

Gas and wind in the stomach accompanied by that full, bloated feeding after setting are almost certain evidence of the presence of stomach creatine, creating not-called 'geld indigestion'. Aird stomachs are dangerous because too much acid irritates the delicate lining of the stomach, often leading to gastritis caused by the acidic corrosive formations and soura, creating the distressing gas which distends the stomach and hampers the normal functions of the vital organs. It is the worst of folly to neglect such a serious condition or to treat with ordinary, careless effect on the stomach acid. Instead get from any dragster a few ounces of Blurred Liquid, a quarter glass of water, right after eating. This will drive the gas, wind and bloat right away.

FUND RAIDUM IN BELGIAN CONGO Means Reduction in Price of Rare Metal From $120,000 to $70,000 a Gram—Vast Storehouses of Wealth from the Washington headquarters of the National Geographical Society says: "Discovery in the Belgian Congo of large quantities of pitch-blende, a radium-bearing ore—a discovery credited with the significant result of reducing the price of radium from $120,000 to $70,000 a gram—has served to emphasize the probable great importance to the world of this country at the heart of Africa when it shall have been fully developed. "In its potentialities, the Belgian Congo might be called 'the Brazil of Africa,'" continues the Bulletin. "Like the largest of South American states, it is of vast extent, covers the heart of a continent, is situated in the tropics; and has flowing through it one of the world's greatest rivers, capable of carrying an empire's commerce. "Perhaps the vast bulk of Belgian Congo can best be understood if one imagines the country lifted bodily and set down on the surface of the United States. Its 809,000 square miles would cover almost exactly one-third of the area, not including Alaska, if the southwest corner of Congo were placed at San Diego, Cal., the southern boundary would roughly correspond with the Mexican border, and the southeastern corner would fall at the southern point of Texas. Forming a very rough square, its northeastern corner would lie at Des Moines and its northwestern corner in Yellowstone Park. "But though this comparison gives a good idea of Congo's great size, its attitude and climate are different from those of the States covered." If it were shifted to the Western hemisphere in its true altitude it would be astride the Amazon and would cover most of the Gulanas and a large slice of northern and central Brazil. "What is now the Belgian Congo has had an unusual history. Livingstone and Stanley put the country 'on the map.' Soon afterward, in 1882, an international committee organized a government, called it Congo Free State, and selected King Leopold of Belgium to be its ruler. Many irregularities in the administration of the region were alleged to have resulted from personal rule, and in 1008 Leopold ceded the territory to Belgium. A year later King Albert came to the Belgian throne, reforms were pushed in the Congo and a new constructive era began. Measured in dollars and effort expended, much has been done to open up the Belgian Congo. Fleets of government as well as private steamers put the several navigable stretches of the Congo and the lakes. Railroads have been built around the various regions of rapids and falls and are being pushed into the interior and laid to connect with British and Portuguese lines at the borders. Somes of radio stations have been set up and nowting their messages where in the past蓄驾 drum signals above were heard. The Belgians even have a Trans-Congo airplane mail service, which rushes European mail across the country twice a month on the arrival of steamers at the Atlantic port of Bona at the mouth of the Congo. "But with all this activity, the surface of the Belgian Congo's possibilities has barely been scratched. Enormous tropical jungles like those of the Amazon Valley sweat proper forestry. In the southeast are extensive tropical prairies teeming with game, that, with the solution of the test-site problem would make excellent cattle ranges. And chance discoveries have shown that the mineral stores of the country are seemingly unlimited. Copper, tin, gold, and diamonds to the value of many millions of dollars have been extracted. Some coal and iron is mined and it is believed that much more exists. Now, when science is finding epoch-making uses for radio- THE "BIT OF SILVER" FUND MARCUS GARVEY'S DEFENSE FUND active substances, the opening up of what is believed to be the world's richest radium ors caps Congo's mineral plax. "Congo is not entirely a torrid land. In the extreme east around Lake Kivu — about 6,000 feet above the sea — rises mountains as high as Pike's Peak. In this upland region the weather is delightful and the slopes and valleys are described by travelers among the world's beauty spots. Nearby the night sky is lifted by the boiling cauldron of Africa's Kilwaue. This Eden is the home of large numbers of man's closest non-human relatives, gorillas. The Belgian government is considering the settling aside of a large-area in this region as a gorilla refuge where the creatures can be preserved, from the extinction which threatens them, and where scientists may study them in their natural haunts. Naturalists have found that unless cornered these gorillas are far from ferocious and it is predicted that if protected they will become entirely tamed. —The Appeal, St. Paul, Man. Jan. 6, 1923. THE "BIT OF Notice to All Members of the ment Association The and F We hereby beg to acquaint you with the fact that several of the men who, during the periods of 1919 to 1922, were elected to serve the association under oath as executive officers for the good of the race, and who were voted, certain salaries believing that their services to the association and to the race would merit it, but who are no longer with us in spirit nor in service, have on the basis of the large salaries voted them by the Convention, sued us for banners they have alleged, due them. We are now, therefore, appealing to the loyal membership and friends of the association to help the parent body pay off these men who have resorted to the counts to force the association to pay them on the basis of the high salaries voted them for cause at the Convention. Please subscribe to this fund to pay off these persons who are suing the association that they want to help and protect and of which they were executive officers. The persons suing are: G. E.

MARCUS GARVEY' Everyone Will Subscribe to Plotters Against Negro F Enemies Are at W Subscript The case against the Honorable Marcus Garvey, like Garcia and George Tobias of the Black Star Line for alleged misuse of the United States mails will be called some time this month in New York. For quite a while enemies of Marcus Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association have been working for the purpose of turning public sentiment against Mr. Garvey. Different Negro associations have been canvassing the people, asking them to justify against Mr. Garvey. They have organized opposition meetings in different centers under the caption "Garvey Must Go." All this is being done to detract the hopes of our race through the only real Negro movement started in the interest of the race.

As chairman, Ernest Peixotz said that jih committee had fully considered the case and finally decided, for social, meaning racial, reasons, Miss Savage had been burred. If there is one country in Europe where race discrimination is not encouraged, it is in France. There full freedom exists and is generally recognized, and the schools that the government maintains are open to persons of every race and color, provided they have the talent that fits them to pass the required tests. What the American committee has done, in patience to a false theory of the properties or, whatever it might call them, is to impose on the French Art School at Fontainebleau restrictions that the school itself would be the first to disavow.—New York World.

BEWARD'S ANNUAL TRACK HE CREATED OF ONE BLOOD NEXT PROMISES TO BE ALL NATIONS OF MEN TO COME A TRACK CLASSIC DWELL ON FACE OF EARTH WASHINGTON, D. C. May 5.—Excelling, by far all its predecessors both in quality and number of entries, the fourth annual track and field meet under the auspices of the Department of Physical Education of Howard University on the campus; Saturday, May 12, bids fare to become the athletic classic of the season. The list of events includes all the championship contests on the Intercollegiate Athletic Association's program. In addition the city high school and intercollegiate championships give all indications of being a battle royal between Dumplin, Armsstrong and Baltimore high schools. The feature event of the program, however, will be an exhibition of board jumping by "Red" Gourdin, international pentathlon champion, and holder of the world's record of 25 feet 3 inches in the running broad jump. Gourdin will also run a special 100-yard dash against Cornelia Thompson, star sprinter of the Alpha Physical Culture Club of New York city. A special 100-yard dash is being arranged which will probably include C. Thompson, "New York University; Jimmie" Moore, Pennsylvania State College; Kelly Perry, Howard University, and J. Irwin, Hampton Institute. In the relay championship the public of Washington will have their first opportunity of seeing Howard's championship team, which made the second fastest time in the mile championship at the University of Pennsylvania relay carnival, pitted against Hampton, Maryland Normal and the crack Wilherforce team, which is making a special trip East to participate in these games. Hampton has entered thirty athletes, including the famous "Red" Dabney, with the axed purpose of capturing the point trophy. Howard is well fortified in all the events with such stars as Robinson Nichols, Craft, Young, Green, Bridges, Bright and Anderson, and should make the going fast and furious all the way.

You are once again reminded and asked to support the uplift programme of the U. N. I. A., the greatest Negroid organization, which seeks to alleviate the suffering of Negroes the world over. The parent body is anxious that the Negroes of Puerto Cortez put aside the differences of the past; we are asked to contribute our aid to this great programme building so that our posterity will, with pride and honor, reap the fruits of our labors; we are the present disciples of this greatest Negroid doctrine of the U. N. I. A. "Well, then, will we play the part of a Joah, or will we, like Paul, witness boldly and become converted to the principles and ideals of the organization? Do we not hear the cry from the distant shores men and women of Puerto Cortez: Why persecutest thou the one movement born to deliver, the race from oppression? Millions of our brothers are awaiting our help in Africa, the motherland. Will we in Puerto Cortez neglect this universal call? Shall we shun this opportunity when the salvation is at stake? We might say, "Oh, I am getting along all right." Suppose this be accepted as true. Will your being all right today give to your posterity tomorrow his rightful place under the sun? It is highly necessary that we enter into a deeper thought of consideration at this time when historical facts prove to us that to the Jews a babe was born—He who was to be their deliverer in the person of Jesus Christ; the Jews were too self-contained to accept Him and we well know the consequences. To the Hebrows a babe was born in the person of Moses. He was to deliver them from their oppression and they, likewise, were too self-contained and for their rebellion we well know the consequences. To the Africans and African descent, to the Negroes a babe was born in the person of Murcus Garvey, who is to deliver us from bondage. He is to lead us to the promised land. If we refuse to hear him our posterity will also read of the consequences.
