The Negro World

The Independent Weekly The Voice of the African-American Negro A Newspaper Devoted Solely to the Institute of the Negro Race VOL. XVII. No. 16 NEW YORK, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 1934 GETTING READY FOR CRUISE OF THE WEST INDIES AND CENTRAL AMERICA Fellow Men of the Negro Race, Greeting: This week I write especially to the Negroes of the United States, asking each and every one who can afford it to embrace the opportunity of booking passage on the S. S. Booker T. Washington for the cruise that is to be made to the West Indies and Central America. At this time of the year everybody who can afford it in America is endeavoring to get away to the warm climate either of the Bermudas, Florida, California or the beautiful tropical isles of Cuba, Haiti, Jamaica or the countries of Central America. Seeing the Tropics the Universal Negro Improvement Association places at the disposal of all Negroes in America this splendid opportunity to see the tropics aboard a ship of the Negro race, the first of the line of the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company. The cruise will be for thirty-one days. The good ship will touch the islands of Cuba, Haiti, Jamaica and the countries of Panama, Bocas del Toro and Costa Rica. Why not go to see these beautiful countries where the oranges, bananas, grape fruit, sugar cane, cocoa nuts and palms grow? Go there to see nature in her evergreen mood, where the grass is ever green, where the trees are ever green, where the birds sing continuously. Go to the country where the rivers flow placidly from the falls and cataracts without being frozen. Go and see the natives in their happy, cheerful mood, singing their songs of tropical bliss and extending to the ABOARD SHIP OF THE BLACK CROSS NAVIGATION AND TRADING COMPANY SEEING THE BEAUTIES OF THE CARIBBEAN SEA-ENJOYING LIFE AMONG THE NATIVES-SEE THE WEST INDIAN AT HOME SAIL UP THE PANAMA CANAL AND SEE THE GLORIES OF OLD PANAMA SEE THE BANANAS AND ORANGES RIPE ON THE TREES stranger the hand of welcome and of cheer. Millions of white American tourists go to the tropics yearly. This is a chance for Negroes to do likewise. Go and see the Panama Canal, the great engineering feat completed through the energy of Negroes under the direction of General G. W. Goethals, after whom the Booker T. Washington was originally named the S. S. G. W. Goethals. Opportunity for Negro Tourists This ship has splendid accommodations for passengers. Her cabins are as spacious and accommodating as any of the big ocean liners, and the price for the thirty-one days' cruise is as low as possible. You can book a passage for the thirty-one days to and fro with all requisites supplied for $350.00. The ship will be manned by a competent group of white and colored officers. The local groups of Negroes in Cuba, Panama, Jamaica, Bocas del Toro and Costa Rica are planning receptions for those who make the cruise. This will be an exceptionally joyful time for all those who will take advantage of the opportunity. Pleasure and Business Trip trip but a business trip for those who are commercially or industrially inclined. New associations can be formed with your own people, new contacts created such as the white travelers have done to their own commercial and industrial interests. If this first cruise proves successful, the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company will place at the disposal of the race in America semi-annually ships of the line to facilitate those who desire to visit the tropics. Let everybody work, therefore, to make this a success. Book Your Passage You can book your passage now by writing to the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company, 56 West 135th Street, New York, sending in your full payment for the passage or one half payment, with the balance paid up before the 20th of December. The ship will sail from New York, 135th Street and North River Pier, on Sunday afternoon, the 11th of January, 1925, and will return on the 7th of February, 1925. No passports are needed. No income tax will be paid for those who are making the return trip. Write in immediately and book your passage. With very best wishes, I have the honor to be Your obedient servant, MARCUS GARVEY, President-General, Universal Negro Improvement Association New York City, November 25, 1924. THE BLACK FIGHT IS ON THE MOVE IN HIS AFRICA The Englishman Saves Great Danger to the Whites. When the Blacks Awake and Begin to Fight Under Preparer Leadership ABYSSINIA IS WAITING Years ago, when the English of the island regarded all black people somewhat contemptuously as little better than animals, whose bodies must be delivered from the cruel Inquisition of pictureque Arab slave traders, and when the East was a place of vast mystery, we used to hear often of the Yellow Peril. Today Japan has assimilated the ways of Western civilization—even though some of us deem it but a thin veneer—and China, torn by internal strife, has become for the present a negligible factor. The Yellow Peril may be quiescent for the moment, but the color question remains involved. There is something stirring in the East, a sort of tense expectancy which is not at all easy to explain. There is a wave of unpassion pacing through fields and kypsi; a sort of waiting bush before the storm; and through that bush, vibrant as the murter of far-off native drums, there is a submerged "something" at work in the countries of the colored races across the length and breadth of the world today. Signs from the East Of this submerged "something" the present trouble in Egypt and India are no more than bubbles rising to the surface, thrown up from a strong, unseen current, if you will, but nonetheless indications of a trend of unfathomed growing out of the East. India, with but three million Christians in a population of three hundred millions, of whom two hundred and three million are Hindus and another million are a half million Buddhist, we have stated already how to handle; but the unreal millions of black men in Africa are awakening, and those people are a problem beyond the present comprehension of any white administrator, be he British, French, Belgian, German or Portuguese. The African native is as incurtable as the Splinx and far deeper than most people, who have never dealt with him at first hand in his uncivilized state, could ever imagine. Mabianat, the last chief of the Musalat to hold undisputed away in both British and German East Africa territory, made many prophecies that have since come true. He foretold the coming of the white people and the projection of Uganda Railway from Mombasa to Victoria Nyanza. He said, inter alia, that the white man would cross the country and continue to press on in the same direction, and that they eventually would meet with a force more powerful then themselves, which would drive them back till they left the country. An Extravagant Theory The Masal themselves hold the extravagant theory that the Anglicans will finally reconquer Africa for Ethiopia, but most white men who know the country consider that we are far more likely to have trouble with the Abyssinians. To that matter we will revert presently. I have laid stress upon Mbiatjan's prophecy because it is analogous to other circumstances that indicate the African's desire to have Africa for himself and to return to that horrible state of primitive savagery which appertained before the Trek-Imer crossed the Vanal River and the missionaries began to open up Central Africa. When Captain J. E. T. Philips, M. C. went up into the almost unknown land of Ruanda he discovered the existence of a terrible anti-European secret society styling themselves Nabingst or "Expeller." The armed band of the semi religious and fanatical organization attacked impartially British, Belgian and German forces both before, during and after the Great War, and to these bands Pygmy hunters acted as guides and messengers. Nicki Mull (Two Fingers), fighting leader of this society, sworn to drive the white man out of Africa, was one of the most famous British chiefs of the African Continent, rivaling in his activities Tippo Tib, Raisal and the Mad Mullah. His goat's horn thunk had held the blood of more than one European and round his neck, after Captain Philippe had killed him, were found on charms the back sigature of the rifles of also seldom he had killed. The death of the leader did not put him and to the activities of the Hikienman. On his death his grave be once an amount of innocent misdeeds for Christians who elected to empty mine his hand, which they believed to contain the oil and spirit to ename the due succession of further polity conquests and rebellion. In these circumstances Captain Philipus thought it expedient to remove the head and imbricate of Ntoki to the British museum, where they may still be found. Hidden Hinted At present such societies as the Leopard Man of the West Coast and the Nakshi of Central Africa are widely separated except in purpose, but all natives are of heart hostile to the white man. We have looked down upon them, treated them contemptuously so long that their hidden hatred is understandable, nor have they any gratitude because we, have, in the main, retained them from slavery and lifted from their lives the heavy oppression of the slave trader. The Black Pearl from within Africa is to be apprehended from Abyssinia. Here you have a people who are probably the descendants of those Israelites who were cut off from the main host when Moses led the Jewish people out of captivity and through the Red Sea. into the Wilderness. Egypt was closed, to them and they made their way south. These people have the keen intellect of their Jewish forefathers, combined with the ruthless savagery of the natives with whom these Children of Promise in- Menelik, showed us what the Abyssinians are capable of under competent leadership, but in those days the arts and crafts of civilization had hardly touched the Dark Continent. But suppose the day comes when an equal of Menelik, educated and trained in Europe, seats himself upon the throne, in it not then possible that the prophecy of the old Manal Mbabian may find fulfillment, and the white men be driven out of Africa for a time? Develop Abyssinia Our least safeguard against any such occurrence would be in the opening up of Abyssinia. The country is potentially the richest in Africa, with a climate finer than that of California. It is the natural stockhouse of everything required by man, from coal and gold to Mpcha coffee and Great, and yet every roadway is closed to this which might be the greatest center of commerce in North East Africa. Great Britain, France and Italy have agreed to uphold the Abyssinian government, and no white man other than a government official may cross the border. Blessed, the Abyssinians themselves self-aggranient, awaiting patiently the advent of a leader—and God help us when he is found—while slavery, rapine, torture and every abuse in its vast form go on unchecked. Discontent and leness, varied by sporadic slave raids into British territory, and hatred of the white races, burn like a show fire in Ethiopia today, hardly noticed by the English of the island far off, but the bursting out of the conflagration will startle us badly in the not very distant future, I fancy. In the meantime we have made Hindus and Egyptians free of our homes and have handed them our womenfolk in marriage. We have educated them in Western lines, and in consequence there is today a far greater state of unrest in India and Egypt than ever there was in the days of the Indian Mutiny. "Dangerous Colony" in London During the years of the Great War the Nexroes of the West Coast of Africa first began to make fortunes by trade, and today they are all-powerful, discounted, and absolutely arrogant. For long enough past real Nexroes have intermarried freely with white women in such ports as Liverpool and Cardiff, and today the Nexroes who have come over from the States as performers in jazz bands are forming a dangerous little colony in London, where they are apparently much admired by the white girls with whom they associate. All these happenings are but a sign that Africa, that great, dark monster, is stirring in her sleep, preparing to wake. Today the submerged "something" that is disturbing the coloured peoples throughout the world is the desire for self-expression, racial freedom from restraint, and the right to govern their own countries, India and Egypt have travelled far along the road of their desires, and that the Negro peoples have similar aspirations is easily seen. Only a little time ago a polemical convoction of Negroes was held in New York City, the first King of Ethiopia crowned, and his prime minister appointed, already there is in existence a steamship line owned entirely by Negroes; while yet another band of well-educated American black men have gone back to Africa to found a colony from which missionaries of the hoped-for new regime will undoubtedly be sent out to the unphilosophical African savages who are the real black peril. Land of Warriors I say, this because I know that, from North to South, Africa is a land of warlike people, who need only the glimmer of a fighting faith to send them fighting mad, as happened in the days of the -Mad Matthi, that many, financial ruler of no more than a dozen villages, whose words fired upwards in an thousands of natives —not Mohammedene—to follow the black hammers of his enemies into battle. We have no right to check the encumbration of the colored race, but, for our own sake, are of the older civilization that must direct their evolution, to save ourselves much earlier sufer- BRITISH ULTIMATUM TO EGYPT AS TO SUDAN IS REJECTED FLATLY Britain to Compel Compliance with Impossible Demands by Armed Force—Interference of League of Nations or Other Outside Power Will Not Be Tolerated by British—Something About the Sudan Country—Long Drawn Out War Possible CAIRO, Nov. 23 (Associated Press) —The Egyptian Government's reply to the British note in connection with the assassination of Major Gen. Sir Lee Oliver Black, Governor General of the Sudan and Sirdar of the Egyptian Army, agrees to Great Britain's demand for an apology, punishment of the amassive and an indemnity of £50,000. It also promises to prevent any disturbance of the peace by demonstrations. The reply says the British demand regarding the Sudan breaks the status quo and is contrary to the Constitution under which King Fugd in Commander in Chief of the Egyptian Army. It considers the demand regarding the Gediz irrigation project premature. The communication further says the position of foreign officials is regulated by diplomatic agreement and cannot be modified without the consent of Parliament. Egyptian Officers Ordered Out Field Marshal Viscount Allenby, British High Commissioner, promptly replied to the Egyptian note, which was signed by Zaghouil Pasha, Egyptian Premier. Gen. Allenby said that in view of the refusal of the Egyptians of the British requirements Nos. 5 and 6 instructions were being sent to the Sudan Government to withdraw from the Sudan Egyptian officers, and units and to effect the specified changes resulting from these measures, adding that the Sudan Government was at liberty to increase the area of irrigation in the Gezira district to an unlimited extent. Gen. Allenby requests the payment of the indemnity of £500,000 by noon Monday and adds: "Your Excellency will learn in due course what action is being taken in view of your refusal of requirement No. 7 regarding the protection of Sudan citizens." Kayut Denim Responsibility Zaghbull Pasha read his reply at an open session of Parliament today, after which the House adopted a vote of confidence in the Government, with only one disentaining vote. The reply again expressed sorrow and horror at the murder of Gen. Stack, but said the Egyptian Government could not admit it was in any way responsible; neither could it admit the crime was the natural result of the political campaign. Nevertheless, the Government agreed to the payment of the indemnity demanded. Continuing, the note quoted Article 46 of the Constitution in reference to the Sudan, by which the King in Commander-In-Chief of the Army. It said the Gazira irrigation demand was, to say the least, premature, and remarked that Great Britain always had promised that an 'increased cotton area would be arranged under an accord taking cognizance of Egypt's agricultural interests. Tense Emotion in Parliament The Egyptian Government, further maintained that Law No. 28, which is a diplomatic agreement, regulated matters concerning foreign officials and said that, in any case, it could not reply in detail on this point since the British note did not specify what modifications were desired. Parliament was charged with tense emotion when the Premier read his reply, prefacing it with a statement in which he exhorted his hearers to show the greatest patience and prudence, for, he warned, the slightest rashness might bring about the most terrible consequences. He then read the formal note of the Egyptian Government amid complete silence. At its conclusion one opposition Deputy arose and characterized the document as ridiculous acquirement in wounds inflicted on the country. He asserted the Premier had betrayed the confidence reported in him. Zaghloum, in reply, said: "I have done my duty and have not betrayed the confidence of the country. I am prepared to give up my ing and, in the distant future, perhaps destruction, for the black man's vitality is enormous and his brain-power-appreciably on the increase. Today he seeks, too soon, to govern his own land. Tomorrow that may come and with it the do-rule of the better-educated, who will lead and dominate the black millions, for world domination. Therein lies the real black peril, for if the African cannot shoot and handle big gun's today, there is no reason why he should not do so in the not very distant future. Trained and led by white officers and N. C. C., the African already makes a fine soldier, as witness the "Waffle" (West African Frontier Force) of the West Coast and the King's African Rifles of the East. Luckily the general public are becoming daily more interested in our relations and responsibilities towards the colored people, but it is below the bare facts can be placed before the public sufficiently visible to enable them to judge and to warn them against coming menaces. place to any one better qualified to see the country through its difficulties." At this remark the Zaghloulist Deputies, rising in their places, gave the Premier a great ovation. Two hours later the Secretary of the Residency handed to Premier Zaghloul Viscount Allenby's reply. The talk among the Opposition Deputies later was that the Egyptian reply was weak and that the British conditions ultimately would be accepted. Small anti-British demonstrations were renewed by students today. Afterward, British troops marched through the city. Two airplanes from Cairo flew over Tianjin, where some restlessness among the natives had been observed. Russell Panha, Chief of Police of Calre, at the head of 160 mounted policemen wearing steel helmets; made a demonstration in the streets of the capital. Although the thoroughfares were crowded, the populace remained tranquil. SOMETHING ABOUT THE SUDAN COUNTRY Great Britain's demand that Egypt shall withdraw immediately all her troops from the Sudan is the biggest feature of the ultimatum delivered to Premier Zaghloul at Cairo Saturday. London dispatches lay stress on the idea that Egypt is to retain her "independence" with a British garrison on the spot, with British advisers in her chief departments and with her press censored and public demonstrations forbidden—but it is evident London intends to take over complete control of the Sudan. Under this plan "independent" Egypt would be left with some 200,000 square miles of territory, of which only about 12,000 square miles are under cultivation, while Britain would take more than 1,000,000 square miles of territory—about a quarter of the area of Europe—of which the greater position can be made productive. Will Control Nile's Source Britain also would control the sources of the Nile, on which the 12,000,000 Egyptians are dependent for the water for their farms and cities, and be free to divert such water for irrigation of Sudan lands. Bitter feeling over British designs on the Sudan is what led to the murder of Sir Lee Stack, the real ruler of the province. Gen. Stack in recent years had been continuing the process of Anglicizing the Sudan, which had been under way since the conquest by Gen. Kitchener in 1895. Ostensibly the province was under Anglo-Egyptian joint rule, but the Cairo Government has had little to say about the conduct of its affairs. When Egypt was given its independence in 1922 the question of the future of the Sudan was reserved for further negotiations. Efforts of the British to get the Calro Government to agree to virtual British dominion have failed, but Prensler Zaghloul's recent visit to London brought not the slightest concession on either side. An attempt of Egyptian troops recently to assert the sovereignty of their Government was sharply suppressed by Gen. Stack's forces. The British are anxious to hold the Sudan because of its promise of rich returns from irrigation schemes. One is already under way at the Gezira. The best Egyptian cotton can be grown there. The uplands can be made into great granaries and productions of meat. Development of this region would tend to make Britain independent of American cotton and food. Faara Sudan Independence Pearls Sudan Independence Egypt is alarmed because it is evident the British intend to make the Sudan independent; by giving it an outlet to the Red Sea—to which a railroad has already been built—instead of through the difficult Nile and its valley. Also with the development of Sudan irrigation the Nile waters might be drained to an extent that would make existence precarious in the lower valley. For that reason the Cairo Government will be compelled to put every possible obstacle, in the way of acceptance of this portion of the British ultimatum. CORNS RECOVERED DR. J. P.

More mention of the Nile conjures up the vast history of Egypt with its long line of Pharaohs: it calls to memory the time when "Ahram went down into Egypt to adjourn there; for the faming was grievous in the land." It recalls the familiar story of Joseph who was sold into Egypt to Petunia, an officer of Pharaoh. In imagination, the vast pyramids and the stilted sphinx rise out of the desert wasta the temple of Pharaoh beautiful on the banks, the memorials of kings, gigantic witnesses of the great past that long has been shrouded in mystery but which modern research is rapidly unveiling. It brings a vision of Cleopatra as The barge she sat in, like a burnished throne. Burns on the water; the peep was beaten gold; beaten gold; Purple the sails, the cars were silver, Which to the tune of flutes kept strokes and made The water which they beat to follow faster. Egypt grew corn for export to feed Rome, in ancient time, and the Nile gave the fertility which made this possible. Historic and important as this river always has been, its sources were for centuries abroached in mystery; no one knew whence came its life-sustaining waters. All sorts of theories were put forth to account for its regular overflow, bringing its fertilizing deposits. Some said that the Nile and the Ganges both rose in the frozen mountains of North Asia, and other imaginative folk declared that the Nile came from the "Mountains in the Moon." It was not until 1862 that the brave adventurers, Spike and Grant, located the main source of the White Nile in what is now called Victoria Nyanza (Lake Victoria). Later the White Nile is joined by the Blue Nile and by other streams which bring down the drainage from the Abyssinian hills. In Calro, London, and other great business centers, men think mainly of politics and agriculture when Egypt is mentioned. But to those not absorbed in these interests the name Egypt still means the home of the Sphinx, a desert rookm of camels and white-robed sheiks, the country where the Book of Exodus began. Now there is an added interest in its past brought about by the discovery of the rare treasures of an ancient but very youthful king. Tourists seek eagerly all these spots; they go up to the cataracts to study the wonders of this ancient river and its sand-velled shores. Around its important ports the eager hum of business is heard in the day, and crafts from all over the world flaunt the flags of many nations. And yet these are spots where the hush of evening leaves upon its waters only here and there a native boat gliding to the gentle breeze that crowds its dim sail, upon the moonlight-siltered waters of this ancient of ancient rivers. "How beautiful this night! the balmiest sight Which vernal zephyra breathes in even lake's air. Were discord to the spreading quietude That wraps this moveless acense." IMPLEMENTMENT PROBLEMS SCIENTIFICALLY STUDIED Methods Purposed in Selecting Workers Is Found to Be Defective — Establishment of Nationwide Service Suggested REASONS FOR SERVICE A great deal of quickness and people science is being exercised in the technique of selecting applicants for employment, and the greater part of the employmentstation, scientific and otherwise, that has been carried on in regard to the selection of workers is still comparable to the "home remediation" stage of medicine and surgery, according to an exhaustive report on "Public Employment Office—Their Purpose, Structure, and Methods," which has just been issued by the Russell Bage Foundation. The value of the judgment regarding an applicant for work which is based on the look in his eye, the condition of his hands, or the condition of his collar, is minimized in the report, as is also the practice of arbitrarily classifying applicants for employment according to any standard list of types of personalities. "No system or method of character analysis has yet produced results which justify its adoption or even suggest its trial in a public employment office," says the Foundation's statement. "This is not to be taken as decrying research in the field, but as a warning against depending too much upon any schemes for rating individuals which appeal to the imagination because of the greatness of the need for something of the kind, rather than because of their demonstrated success. "The human mind has been groused by some person's interested in employment questions into types that are presumably mutually exclusive, as follows: The executive type, the detail type, the promotion type, the accounting type, the clerical type, the selling type, the mechanical type, and so on. These adjectives do describe attributes of the mind, but that people can be so tagged and labeled fairly is doubtful. The temptation to label people is very great, but the science and art of successfully doing it have not as yet been discovered." The report, which is based on a five-year study extending into almost every State in the Union and into Canada and England, was prepared by Shelby M. Harrison, director Department of Surveys and Exhibits of the Russell Sage Foundation, in collaboration with Mary LaDune, Bradley Bussell, Leslie E. Woodcock and Frederick A. Kings, all of whom have been closely identified with public and private employment work. Several hundred pages in the report are devoted to methods of organizing and administering a National employment service. In making the report public Mr. Harrison said: "The solution of the employment problem depends very largely on the ability of the staff in each local office—and there would be a hundred or more of such offices in the proposed service—to discover, as intelligently as possible, the exact requirements of the job which the employer wants filled, and the capability and adaptability of the individual worker applying for this job. worker applying for this job. After reviewing the various methods by which workers get jobs and employees get workers, the report draws the conclusion that these methods are inadequate to the needs both of industry and of the workers; it recommends the establishment of a Nationwide free employment service, to be operated jointly by the Federal State, and local governments, and clites the following major reasons for the need of such a service: (1) All of the existing employment agencies combined meet only part of the need, and they leave the employment service demands of many important sections of the country and some important industries entirely undeveloped. (2) In order to reduce unemployment, and at the same time give employers the maximum assistance, in securing labor, there is need, among other things, of an employment system national in people. None of the existing non-governmental agencies offer sufficient promise of development along these lines; nor is there at present any means of coordinating or correlating the activities of the existing agencies. (3) It is necessary, particularly during periods of strike or other active controversies between employer and employee, to have absolute impartiality, and this, cannot be secured through the existing agencies; methods of attaining impartiality through a combined Federal-State-local system of public employment offices are pointed out in the report. 'LOST VIGOR RESTORED IN 24 HOURS' "Glands Awakened in One Day" is the Amazing Statement of a Seventy-six Year-Old Veteran. Lost vigor, deadened glands and nerves, and that weak, worn-out, depressed and half-alive feeling need not be dreaded any longer since the disease has been well-recovered it is possible for those who feel "prematurely old" to become "rejuvenated" and regain the "vital force of youth" often in a days' time, with Mando Forrest, a former Army officer who has taken the treatment. This famous discovery is bringing "renewed youth" and "strength" to thousands where everything else had failed. The vigor was restored and glands renewed in twenty-four hours, says D. B. Peake of Kansas City, Mo. "Today I am 76, but I don't feel a day over 40. Before I was an old, worn-out" man, but now I am enjoying a remarkable 'gland restoration' and am convinced my rejuvenation is complete and permanent. May this discovery of such a boom to humanity." This wonderful formula, prepared by one of the largest laboratories in the world and generally known as Mando, will work with you.

THE PATHS OF EVERY GREAT MOVEMENT ARE STREWN WITH SURPRISES AND DISAFFPOINTMENTS NO REASON FOR DISCOURAGEMENT ON THE PART OF THE MEMBERS OF THE U. N. L. A.-THE SACRED PRINCIPLES OF THE GAUSE OF AFRICA WILL GO ON FOREVER Dialloyal Officers of the Organization Are Bitterly Densued—They Have Made Room for Others Who Are More Capable to Lead—The Movement Goes on Without Them and Shall Continue to Live Forever VISITOR TO LIBERTY HALL CHARACTERIZES U. N. I. A. AS GREATEST ORGANIZATION KNOWN TO MANKIND—PAYS GLOWING TRIBUTE TO LEADERSHIP OF HON. MARCUS CARVEY LIBERTY HALL, New York, Sunday Night, November 23. Speaking to a full audience in Liberty Hall tonight, Hon. Marcus Garvey, in a stirring speech on the subject of "Liberty and Patience," drew a striking parallel between the Universal Negro Improvement Association, in its fight for freedom, and the Irish, Indian and Egyptian people who are engaged in a similar struggle for complete autonomy. History nowhere, he said, records any incident where a people were able at one leap to accomplish all the things they desired and hoped for, but history records many instances where peoples, aiming at certain heights and objectives, have had to travel through roads of pleasure, happiness, disappointment and ultimately to success, and the Negro, like all other races, has to go and to travel the same way. His talk was aimed at offsetting the possible demoralizing influence upon the minds of the membership of the organization through the recent suits brought by men who were at one time executive officers of the organization, but who recreant to their vows had either deserted the organization or were put out. After making a bitter denunciation of these backsliders who, results have shown, had entered the organization for motives purely personal and not for the good of the race, he warned the membership against reaching the conclusion that something was wrong with the organization because of these happenings. In every movement, he said, its followers have had to encounter disappointments and surprises, but these should only serve to inspire them to carry on until the objective is realized. The one and great objective was Africa's redemption and men may come and may go but the sacred principles of the cause of Africa will go on forever, and his appeal to the members was to look forward to the spirit of Africa and let nothing discourage them. "We have great hope," he concluded, "and we are going to face the future through the incoming year of 1925, as never before; and we want you to drop all your doubts and despondencies, if you ever had them in your mind, and recharge yourselves with the fire of loyalty and patriotism for Africa and let all of us put over this gigantic program as far as possible in 1925." Hon. Rudolph Smith spoke in the same vein and so did Mr. L. S. Headon, a visitor to Liberty Hall, who paid a glowing tribute to the leadership of Hon. Marcus Garvey and characterized the Universal Negro Improvement Association as the greatest organization known to mankind. FREQUENT COUGHS You may not understand why you are so susceptible to coughs and colds, the truth is your resistive powers are weakened and you need a food-medicine like SCOTT'S EMULSION to nourish your body to build up your strength and give you the power to resist the sudden weakness. You do not need powerful drugs or stimulants but nourishment of the vital mind. If you are troubled with coughs or colds take Scott's Emulsion everyday! Following are the speeches: HON. MARCUS GARVEY'S SPEECH HON. MARCUS GARVEY'S SPEECH My subject for tonight is "Liberty and Patiance." History is the guide post of all peoples. By it a race or a nation is directed to the goal of its hope or its ambition. The Negro, like all other peoples, like all other races, like all other nations, must profit by and through this great agency. History nowhere records any incident where a people were able at any one leap to accomplish all the things they desired or hoped for; but history records many instances where peoples aiming at certain heights and objectives, have had to travel through roads of pleasure, happiness, disappointment and ultimately success; and so the Negro, like all other races, has to go and travel the same way. We are now engaged in a struggle as titanic as that of any other race has undertaken or indulged in at any other period. What we want most at this time is education; education that will fit us to know ourselves, education that will fit us to realize the truths of life. There are some of us who expect that this race of ours at one leap must accomplish all that it desires—all that is set as a program. You are misguided, you are misinformed if you think that life changes that way. It is a continuous grind, it is a continuous repetition of the same thing over again. Partial, success, partial disappointment and a repetition of the same thing, until ultimately you reach the objective. The Fight for Freedom We have the morning papers to tell us of the great trouble there is now in Egypt. The Egyptians have been fighting for independence, for complete autonomy. In doing so they had to form themselves into national groups to express national sentiment. At one time they got a small modicum of self-government with restrictive legislative powers; at another time they got a fuller modicum of government, and ultimately the other day they were given the class of independence that they fought for for many decades. Today we find that they are in the midst of great trouble, and most likely to lose that, which they won a few years ago through the sacrifice of agos. But what has happened? The Egyptian spirit is as loyant, as determined, as warlike, in the midst of trouble, in the midst of disaster, as when they won their fullest after centuries and decades of agitation. If we were to follow the papers it would appear that the great power of England is going to smother Egypt and take away from her all the courage and all her pride. But does that really take to the Egyptian the spirit of despondency or loss of hope? No; but if engenders him with a fuller determination to go ahead and fight even for another decade, even for another century, until Egypt is really free. The incident that I recited about Egypt is the same that Ireland has suffered from for 750 years. The Irish have been fighting and pleading their way until just a couple of years ago they got a free state government, not half what they expected. But that does not prevent the Irish from fighting to the ultimate aim, and that I complete independence. It took them 750 years; it took the Egyptians decades and decades to reach where they are today; and there are some Negroes who expect that we must jump over the fence tomorrow. You cannot reach your objective except through the same channels, through the same avenues, through the some pathways as other men have involved, and as history he told you, although there are some of us who believe that our way will be a different way, that the Lord is going to lead our way, out out our path and fight our battles. We are only sentimental and vain in our belief when we think that we are. History does not show where the Lord has been doing that within the last 500 years. History shows where man has carved a pathway for himself through sacrifice and through blood. And if we must travel we have to pay the same price. Some of us easily get discouraged, because something happens. It is because we are not fixed up properly. All life is a disappointment. Nobody ever entirely lived to see the accomplishment of all that the individual wants. And we are all human beings. You must not expect from the world more than the world gave before you came here and will give after you leave here. You will meet disappointments everywhere; you will meet surprises everywhere. You must be prepared for them, you must be trained for them, and not become yourselves surprised when these things do happen. Some of you, because somebody used to talk from the platform of Liberty Hall and does not continue to speak, that something is wrong. All that is natural. You will hear a lot of shun; just let it fix my mind on an object and that I have a faith, that faith is solid, that faith is firm and all that contributes toward making that faith realized concerns me; and even the devil himself can be on the band wagon, so long as he is traveling toward that same objective or faith that I have, when he wants to turn back he can just go back. I am going right on until I get where I want to go. So that when you hear men come to Liberty Hall and say a lot of stuff it is all right what they say, anybody else could have said that; whenever a person rises to say anything, just forget that person ever said that, but remember that you heard it and go right on. Nobody is going to live forever. The things that I say today I may not be able to repeat ten years from now, because I may be dead; but just remember that he said some good things that you wanted said and those things suited you at that time, and if he goes and dies because what was said was said, but because what was said was just right and fell into your regular idea of things, and fixture of things. The Organization Intact The Organization infect As for argument, we have had a lot of fellows who have come up here and told us about the redemption of Africa; that is a good thing even though they did not mean it. All that you are interested in is whether Africa is redeemed and whether the devil or Jesus Chagal says it is a good thing, all that you want to know is that the thing was said. So that some of you think that because somebody is not with the organization any more something has happened to the organization. Nothing has happened to the organization. What has happened is that the organization has got rid of one more hair; that is all (Applause). But that does not affect your policy; that does not affect your idea of things, and that does not affect your objective. If you allow that to affect you then you are as much a liar as the fellow who told you; but let what has been said impure you to carry on until the objective is realized. And so, those of us who really lead the Universal Nga improvement Association because we know what we are doing are not worried at all. But what happens? We don't know who we is going to drop out. Tomorrow morning Mr. Burrows may drop out; that is all right. Next day Lady Davis might drop out; that is all right; next day, Mr. Smith may drop out; that is all right. Because they drop out you are not going to drop out of the world, are you? The world goes on. The thing is, to get the policy and the program and carry the policy and the program out until all that you have in your mind is realized. In the great Irish movement—in the great Egyptian movement in the great Indian movement men have come and men have gone, but the principles of the movement have remained. And so in this great movement, the bigger this movement becomes, the more men will have to drop out because they have not entered into the great spiritual policy that drives the movement on. Some came in for certain things; some came in for the purpose of getting certain things and when they get what they want they drop out. Some come in to get money, and others may come in to another thing, and if things don't suit them, naturally have not entered into the great spiritual policy that drives the movement on. Some came in for certain things; some came in for the purpose of getting certain things and when they get what they want they drop out. Some come in to get money, and others may come in to another thing, and if things don't suit them, naturally have not entered into the great spiritual policy that drives the movement on. Now, we are all human beings and we do not all feel the same way. Look yourselves over and you will realize right now that you do not even feel like the other fellow next to you. All of us have different opinions, different outlook on things; and so in the leadership of a great, movement Like this you are not going to find everybody who is acting the same way. There are, some men who will come in and if they don't get a lot of money they start to get dissatisfied until they don't talk the same way any more. There are some men who will come up here tonight and make a big speech and tomorrow morning they are expecting $25; if the don't get it, the next night you will find them making a cold speech; they do not engage the same way. You will find differences like that. Anything can disappear them because their hearts add emotions and souls are no fixed; and that is what is really called leadership. What Leadership Ready is Leadership is never disappointed; leadership is never disoriented; leadership is the same thing in December as it was in January. Leadership can go satisfied, or it can go hungry, but it is just the same. Leadership—like men of the Mahatma Gandhi type—there is nothing in the world to change them; no comfort can change them; no sorrow can change them; no sacrifice can change them. Nothing could have changed Mohammed because Mohammed felt for the doctrine of Mohammedanism; nothing could change Mahatma Gandhi because he feels for the doctrine of the Non-co-operationist movement in India; nothing could change Zagul Pasha because he feels for the righteousness of the Nationalist movement; nothing can change Eamon DeValera because he feels the righteousness of the Irish independent cause; and those who lead the Universal Negro improvement Association must feel the same way. Leaders Should Not Be Opportunists Leaders—who are they? They should not be opportunists, but they should be converts to a sacred cause, and their leadership is reflected at its best when the cause is in trouble and when the cause is in need and when the cause is in danger. That is leadership. Leadership has the ability to salvage and to save, and we have not yet even presented to those who have professed to be leaders in the Universal Negro Improvement Association the cause of leadership; they have not seen anything yet. We are just in the Sabah school stage of development, and I am glad that we have been able to gradually relieve ourselves of the drowsy leadership before the real time comes. When the great day comes for the spiritual] and material salvation of our people, how could we travel with hearts that are faint? We have to travel with courage and grit and chuck and character. That is what we wagit to lead the Negro. Faint hearts cannot lead this great cause, because history, as you have read it and as you know it, does not reveal one instance where faint, hearts have ever led anywhere to victory and to opportunity and to the highest calling of men in a world democracy. So that those of us who are really conscious of our duty, and who realize the value, the policy and the objective of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, we feel happy. We are glad to lose those who really do not know what leadership is, so that we can be prepared for great leaders who can pilot this great cause to its destiny. We have had some hard hits, but for me tell you men and women of Liberty Hall and of the Universal Negro Improvement Association all over the world, we have not started yet in the experiences that we must go through before we reach our objective. There is much more we will see, they are many more experiences we will have before we can reach the goal. Take pattern after the people I have named the great Irish people, who have suffered for 150 years; take pattern after the Indian people, who have both song-gling for the last century; take pattern after the great English people who have suffered all the way up to where they are today. You have to duplicate the same exercise you have to duplicate the same determination; you have to wade through the same avenues of the appointment and discouragement before you can reach the ultimate goal of your desire. And I say that those of us who lead and who know what we are about are satisfied that we have traveled spoonily up to this period that I spoke of last Sunday—the second period when the Universal Negro Improvement As a condition will take on new life. The Bigger Work Still Before Us The bigger work of the organization is still before us, and those of us who are responsible are not afraid to show the responsibility of carrying on the work. When we hold our first convention in this historic hall, the noise and the glamour and the infuriation, descend to this hall, from all parts of the country and from all parts of the world, some who thought that they were called to service, who believed that they were fitted for leadership in the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and after a year or two or three had passed by we saw how true they were to their own consciences, to their own souls. Just last Friday we closed the trial of a case in the Supreme Court of New York where a man who essayed to have been a leader of the people, who made brilliant speeches from Liberty Hall and from other platforms of our organization all over the country, who told you and told me how much he had to give in life and death to this sacred cause. I had the unfortunate duty of defending the organization for five days in the Supreme Court of this city against such a man—a man, who came in and said by his eath that "this life, his fortune, his sacred honor, his all, were given to the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and should he fall, would God fall him in the sacred purpose of life." You can remember that oath taken from this platform. Such a man who went throughout the length and breadth of the country and received from the people large sums of money that he never even had the decency to report to the organization and give the organization credit for. After he did that, he had the "brass" - I would say - had the holdness to come back and sue that same organization, which he had vulnerable of thousands of deaths which he never had the opportunity to prevent. For $28,000, even after the organization had notified out all its obligations to him. You will remember at the first convention, we voted him trumpeted high salaries for everybody, believing that the men would have been able to measure up to it. But we found in our disappointment that they did not and at the 1921 convention revived our attitude. At the 1929 convention we voted large salaries to our leaders believing that it would inspire them to go forward and honestly serve the race. At the following convention we found out that we were unable to pay these big salaries and we passed a law making a minimum and maximum salary for each and every officer. We agreed that each officer was to be paid the minimum, and ever since that time the officers have been paid at the rate of the minimum salaries. Those that remained in got the minimum, but the moment they went out they started to sue for the maximum, and so it was that this individual who worked for nearly four years at the minimum and when by his conduct he ran himself out of the organization, what did he do? He came back to sue the organization for the maximum salary from the day that he came in, and they were men who went there and swore like himself that this organisation never at any time passed such a law that there was to be a minimum salary and a maximum salary and that the officers should be paid at the minimum; they swore by the gods that he that such a thing never was said, and looking into the races of the millions and the thousands that they had spoken to all over the country, and looking into the face of the myths that they took they said such things. Now imagine how far a race can travel, how far a race can go, with leaders of that kind. It is no wonder that our race has remained stationary for so long, and it is no wonder that some of you feel as you do. We know that you are sorely disappointed. We know that it is hard for you to believe anything said by anybody from platforms now; but we cannot always live that way; we have to believe just the truth that we know to be the truth; believe what the individual says even though you do not believe the individual means it. I am put in this fix now that I didn't know whom to believe in this whole world. I just made up my mind to feel this way that anything said by anybody I just believe the words if they sound true but look upon every man as a war. We are forced to think that way, because who could have spoken more eloquently than the men and women who have spen from Liberty Hall. They have caused the roof of Liberty Hall with cheers and acclamations, and what we have found, I don't know whether I can look to the right or left to find the highest man, I don't know whether the highest man is before or behind me because all have said the same thing, and it all comes back to what the lieutenant governor said the other day about Roosevelt "Walla, Walla, Walla." It does not matter whether it is "Walla, Walla, Walla" or not; remember that there is one objective and the objective is African rebellion on. We may come and men may go to encounter the people of the cause of Africa on course, so never be weary in well doing to find an end. You are not stitting me; you are not not spitting ourselves; you are not not hurting even the people who have lied and gone out. We just the moral cause if we do not keep the spirit up and the discipline that we have had in that the man is a displacement that every people have had, is a displacement that the history records, so don't love courage because of that; it is the way that all peoples have traveled. And so tonight I make another appeal to Lavery Hill and to the Negroes all over the world to rally around the Universal Negro Improvement Association as you never rallied before. There is not much, after all, to contend for. Look at what the Egyptians are undergoing; look at what the Irish have undergone; some have been shot down on the streets and forced into imprisonment for years, all for the purpose of preserving their ideas and objective. None of you have been shot down; none of you have been imprisoned; none of you have been killed; so you are having an easy time recalling the great objective which you are fighting for. Egypt tonight is under the brutal heel of pow- Genuine BAYER ASPIRIN military leadership, who has and has been knowledgeable and devout, and has number to subordinate the prime spirit of the Egyptian, and in the mind of all that battlement they are still determined to fight on for the sacred cause of liberty. You have no machine gun around you, you have no battalions around you, you have no armies around you; so that you realize that you have an easier time than they have in working toward the same objective, namely, liberty, freedom and democracy. So after all we have not suffered much; the loss of a man here or there by unfaithfulness does not mean much towards a tremendously big movement like this. You are not serving individuals, you are serving yourselves to a great ideal; you are serving your sacred cause. What would it matter if Garvey goes? What would it matter if Lady Davis or Mr. Burrows, or Gaines or Sherrill or Eason goes? The great principle, the great cause is what you are interested in; because what you aim at cannot be realised in a day, cannot be completely realized in ten, fifteen, or a hundred years; it is a cause that shall go down the ages. My message to you tonight is to look forward to the spirit of Africa. Nothing has happened yet to discourage you. From my executive knowledge I am able to tell you that everything shines buoyantly and brilliantly toward that dignity. We have great hope and we are going to face the future through the incending year, 1925, as never before, and we want you to drop all your doubts and dependences, if you ever had them in your mind, and recharge yourselves with the fire of loyalty, recharge yourselves with patriotism for Africa, and the cause Africa and let all of us put over this gigantic program as far as possible in 1925. (Applause.) HON. RUDOLPH. $MITH $PEAK$ Hon. Rudolph Smith speaking on the Negro question, said it was being discussed more than ever at the present day. The Negro in the past has labored, for other race groups and built up their civilization. During those times he was not thought much about; the Negro was not a problem three or four decades ago because he was regarded as a creature who was sympathetic and very easily led, but since the World War in which the Negro participated and came out with flying colors, the Negro today is a far different creature than the Negro of all past. He was now talking about building up a new civilization, and entering into the commercial and industrial field like all other races and nations. Thus the Negro has become a problem, which is both economic as well as racial. Ebolombically, the Negro is in a desperate condition because he has to depend upon others for the necessities of life while, at the same time, Africa with its twelve million square miles around with teaming wealth, which the white man controls. Yet there are some Negroes who say they have lost nothing in Africa. Africa is waiting for the intelligent Negroes to develop it, and it is the function of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to point the race to Africa with the idea of building up there a government of our own. Some people talk about the Universal Negro Improvement Association going down, but said Mr. Smith, even though all the members of the council may sue the organization, even though every member of the council may get out, even though the Hon. Marcus Garvey himself may go out, the Universal Negro Improvement Association would go on just the same. The Hon. Marcus Garvey brought into existence something to help the Negro, but the Negro was thinking about this thing all the time, and in spite of all the difficulties and in spite of all those who may want the organization, it is here to stay. Mahama Gandhi is carrying out his work in India. Zagalil Pasha is carrying out his work in Egypt, the Jew is carrying out his work in Palestine, and the black man, although left in the background, is moving onward and is moving not as individuals, but collectively. From all over the world Negroes are getting together, and when the bugle call is sampled 10,000,000 black folks will move together for the redemption of their motherland. MR. L. 8. HEADON SPEAKS Mr. Heaton in a brief address, authorized the University, Negro Improvement Association as the greatest organization known to mankind. The development of the organization, he said, was antiquity to the growth of a huge oak tree which, having sprung from the little acorn, had nourished the stories of time and developed into the huge tree that was styled the king of the forest. In its development the branches, which tended to impede its growth, were cut out by nature. So it was with the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Its process of development though slow was sure, and would in time accomplish the object which it had before it. He probabit the leadership of Hon. Marcus Garvey, whom he said was a born leader and a man of whom the race should be proud in the effort he is making to bring the Negro out of slavery. While Mr. Garvey might not live to see his dream come true, what he has said from the plattform of Liberty Hall will be repeated in the years to come by unborn generations, and some day in the dark remote corners of Africa, the Red, the Black and the Green will float, having been carried there by the Hon. Marcus Garvey. WASHINGTON, D. C.-After a day of three weeks, the Student Council, the body governing student activities on the campus, was elected last week. The first meeting of the newly elected council was held Tuesday evening. The function of this organization is to develop in the student body a wise and intelligent self control; to preserve and regulate beneficial customs and traditions of the university, and to establish new ones as promise to be for the welfare of the students; to represent the students as a whole in all their relations with the officials, faculty, trustees, alumni and similar hobbies and to have charge of such extra curriculum activities as may be decided upon by the faculty and administrative officers of the university. The Student Council is composed of a president elected at large during the spring quarter and twelve members elected as follows: Two each, chosen separately by the four academic classes; the two freshmen members not having a vote until the beginning of the spring quarter; four members elected at large two from the senior class and two from the junior class. The election at large was conducted in the chapel under the supervision of the president of the council, Arthur M. Brady, Wednesday noon, October 16. Miss Hilda Davis and C. O. Carrington were elected without opposition from the senior class, and Miss Bernice Chism and E. P. Lovett were chosen as representatives of the junior class. The winning candidates at the various class elections were: Senior class, L. McKnight and T. J. Anderson; Junior class, B. C. Baskerville and A. J. Blackburn; sophomore class, P. E. Newble and Miss Marion Thompson. The notable feature of the election was the almost total absence of friction so common at meetings of this type. The only exception recorded was the technical objection raised by the president of the council to the two members chosen by the junior class. He declared that the election was invalid because the delegates were elected before the elections at large. The class then voted to sustain their action and leave the question of the constitutionality to the Student Council. The council on Tuesday night upheld the decision if the junior class. The officers of the Student Council for the ensuing year are Arthur M. Brally, president; C. G. Carrington, vice president; Miss Bernice Chism, corresponding secretary; Miss Marlen Thompson, recording secretary, and A. Blackburn, treasurer. 'TIS TRUE!

LET'S PUT IT OVER THE NEGRO CAN ACCOMPLISH NOTHING WITHOUT AN ECONOMIC FOUNDATION THERE are plenty of people everywhere who are impatient with the backwardness of the Negro people in comprehending and making the most of their economic values—by which we mean the wages they earn, the business interests they control and the money they save after they have spent what is necessary for living account, and which in the aggregate should constitute working capital. We do not feel such impatience to be the best way to get the race to moving in the right direction; indeed, is moving, but slowly, in all parts of the world. We prefer to encourage this awakening and moving, rather than be discouraged and impatient with it. We believe that the membership of the Universal Negro Improvement Association have become thoroughly awake to the absolute necessity of making the most of their-economic values. They have the organization and they have the loyalty and brotherly feeling which make most potentially for success in organized wage-earning, in business co-operation, buying and selling among themselves, and in banking and insurance, and they should lead the way for others in the community where they are. Preach it in every Liberty Hall, in every local, that the only way the Negro people can achieve economic independence is to stand together and match their wits and pennies in building up trade and banking and insurance agencies among themselves. Get busy. Start something in a business way in your locality. Others will not do it for you. THE REPUBLIC OF HAITI AND THE UNITED STATES M. R. DANTE BELLEGARDE, former Haitian minister to Paris, has furnished to the Associated Negro Press an interesting account of his presentation of the case of "The Republic of Haiti and the United States," to the International Union of the Association of Nations, at its meeting in Lyons, France, in July last, and the generous reception which was given his presentation by the delegates and the people of Lyons. It must have been a great triumph for Mr. Bellegarde and the Haitians, if we may judge from his viewpoint. He says: "The policy practiced by the United States towards Haiti and the Dominican Republic interests all Latin America." It also raises problems of international law and the examination of which imposes itself upon universal attention. For the first time perhaps in Europe this policy has been exposed in all its brutality at the Congress which was held at Lyons, from the 29th of June to the 3rd of July, by the International Union of the Associations of the Society of Nations. "Charged by the Haitian people to snake known to the world its sufferings and aspirations, I presented to the delegates of the thirty States assembled in the great city of Lyons the sincere and loyal picture of Haiti's situation from the 28th of July, 1915, date of the armed intervention of the United States in the internal affairs of the little republic of the Antilles. And this exposition which only possessed the merit of accuracy and sincerity gave occasion for her most stirring manifestation which I have ever witnessed; with one transport of emotion and one soul, this assembly, composed of men who appeared to be uniquely dominated by national pre-occupation, raised itself to those serene heights where Justice appears in all its splendor. It was a beautiful and touching spectacle. And that which contributed to increase its grandeur was that the American delegate participated there himself with a loyalty to which I am pleased to render homage." Mr. Bellegarde very correctly regards his efforts as being successful, the main thing aimed at being to get the Haitian side of the question before the Allied nations. In the absence of a vote of censure upon the American policy he counted upon arousing the sympathy of the delegates of the thirty nations around the table. They did not feel that they could censure the United States, but they did express sympathy with such enthusiasm as to surprise and gratify Mr. Bellegarde, and all the more because the American delegate, Mr. Duniway, had it inserted in the resolution that he sympathized with Mr. Bellegarde's presentation of the case: But the significant thing about the presentation of the case to the Society of Nations is to be found in the fact that Haiti is a member of the society and that Mr. Bellegarde spoke as an accredited member of the society. He would not have been allowed to do this if he had not been a member, and he would not have been a member if Haiti was not a member of the League of Nations. The smallest member of the league has as much voice and vote as the largest. We do not forget that both Liberia and Abyssinia are members of the league. The equal standing of Haiti, Liberia and Abyssinia in the League of Nations with the largest nations (and the United States is not a member of the league), gives point and force to the contention of the Universal Negro Improvement Association that Africa for the reasons that nationality of our own, is the only possible force that can acquire the Negro the social will and economic status which he is entitled to and which the antigene of the Cajahian world depends to him. As the Negro develops national strength he will develop the respect of mankind which is withheld from those who are not legally privileged to sit at the council tables of the Society of Nations. general of the Sudan and Sirdar of the Egyptian army, at Cairo, last week, by Egyptian radicals who resent the presence of British soldiers and administrators in Egypt and the refusal of Great Britain to release any of its control of the vast Sudan country, threatens to bring about serious consequences in that part of the world. The fact that the responsible government of Egypt is in no way mixed up in the assassination and has rather yielded more to the British than the radicals consider good and safe for Egypt, does not prevent the British from holding the Egyptian government responsible. Feeling ran high in England last week upon the news of the death of General Stack. There were loud voices demanding that the government should take strong measures, even threatening to depose the Egyptian government and re-establish the British Protectorate. If this should be done it might kindle a flame in sympathizing African States outside of the Egyptian zone and hedging about the Sudan country which it would be difficult to put out as a big fire. There is so much discontent among Egyptians and the natives of British territories in all of Africa as to make a situation delicate in the extreme should the British undertake to depose the present Egyptian government and to re-establish the British Protectorate. The New York Sun, in discussing the Egyptian situation and the assassination of General Stack, says: "For the three years preceding the independence of Egypt extreme radicals, whose acts were disavowed by all the recognized political parties, attempted to drive the British out of Egypt by a system of terrorism. Hundreds of arrests were made and finally thirteen men were brought to trial on the charge of a general conspiracy to murder British officials. They were convicted of a number of assassinations and political outrages and were sentenced to long terms of imprisonment. The frequency of these acts was somewhat reduced, but even in the last year there were reported a number of attacks on British army officers and civil officials and members of their families. Premier Zaghlul was himself the victim of a would-be assassin on his return from the conference in London, because his assailant declared he was too friendly to British interests. "While the British government withdrew their protectorate and recognized Egypt as an independent sovereign State, it left open for future discussion the questions of security of communications in Egypt, defense, the protection of foreign interests and the status of the Sudan. The British government has especially insisted upon the security of Suez Canal as a vital link in the empire and there is not the smallest likelihood that it will abandon this contention. Such acts as the assassination of General Stack will tend to convince the world that the British protection of this great artery of trade is still necessary." Here we have the doctrine of the Christian powers in their relations with weaker States and subject people; the doctrine of force to have and to hold what you desire, if you have the strength to take it and keep it over the protest of the rightful owners. That is to say, it is the argument of the common bandit. The United States has shown too much of the European way of dealing with other peoples than its own in its conduct of affairs in Santo Domingo and Haiti, in Cuba and in the Philippine Islands. We have had regard first to our trade necessities and strategic advantages rather than the rights of the peoples who had something we wanted and were able to take and hold on to it. We got the Panama Canal rights in that way and we are safeguarding the canal in much the way as Great Britain is trying to safeguard the Suez Canal. Unrest of the natives of Africa and Asia and the Islands of the Seas has begun to worry the Christian nations. EDITORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PRESS Anyway, the country is safe and we can all go ahead and attend to the business of bettering our own fortunes and those of the country.—Norfolk Journal and Guide. The outline of requests to be made upon the new administration as set forth by the Hon. W. C. Matthews, organizer and director of the activities of colored voters in the recent national election, covers very fully the situation, and if it is lived up to all will indeed be happy and content.—California Eagle. The fellow who says it can't be done is actually interrupted by somebody doing it.—Shireport Sun. The faults which are common to us are common to humanity. But there is one glaring fault of the Negro which serves to handicap blue more than his fellows in the race of life. Envy is the besetting sin of the American Negro. It shows in our lack of cooperative effort, our unwarranted assuilion on the personalities of our leaders, in the cheap and vulgar worship of fool gossip and errant tumor, in the unwillingness of many to recognize superior ability and training. We envy the success of our neighbors—and cast filthy aspersion on their lives. We envy the young men and women who are fitted to take their places in the life of the city and state. With the laundered eye of envy we appraise our friends and they suffer thereby. It is time that we outgrow this perverse and blundering ineptitude, this vicious and covardly attitude. All of us are struggling, for success—and we come no nearer the goal by handicapping our fellow men—Northwestern Bulletin Appeal. In short, here is the story. A well-known colored man and a well-known Jewish merchant are going to open a first-class grocery business, where only colored young men and ladies will be employed. Their success is in your hands. The future of your boy or girl is if your hands. What will you do with this aplendid opportunity?—Omaha New Era. The Daughter of the Confederacy want to stop the singing of "Marching Through Georgia." They also want to endow chairs in Southern colleges for the teaching of the history of the South, especially of the Confederacy. William McKinley, elected President of the United States in 1861, made the beginning of the representation between the North and the South, surrounding over the limited blessings Negroes had from the Republican party which they had helped to keep in power, in his wild eagerness for the white people to get together. Now nearly a generation afterward the Southern white women are still unreconstructed. Indeed the North is paying too dear for its whistle—Kansas City Call. Whatever work one undertakes he should be actuated by the desire and determination to do it to the best of his ability. Too many people are satisfied with merely "getting by." Those who do this never amount to much. Shikkers on any job are in reality cheating themselves more than they are cheating their employer for they are inflicting upon themselves not only a serious loss in physical and mental efficiency, but also irreparable damage to their moral character. Doing one's best wherever called to serve pays large dividends. Always strive to do your best—Omaha Monitor. The function of government is not to enlist, punish and suppress lofty ambitions. On the contrary the proper function of government is to make it easy for people to do good and difficult for them to do evil.—Nashville Clarion. Eternal vigilance is no less the price of liberty today than it was hundreds of years ago. It will be easy for many who took an independent stand in the last election to drift back into the old run. Indeed there are many agencies already at work to win back the Negro vote. Politicians are talking about the Negro coming back home. The Negro's political home in the future will be wherever the interest of his country and of himself are best conserved. The getting of this fact over to every Negro man and Negro woman and the giving to them the most intelligent reason for the faith that is in them becomes the task of every enlightened citizen of our community.—Indianaapolis, freeman.

I wonder if anyone who are WILD POOL THESE MORTALS BE TRAGEDY OF LIFE By T. Thomas Fortune Marriages between persons of different races and clandestine associations invariably turn out badly. The number of scandals that crop up in the newspapers and the courts every day shows this to be so. A famous New York paragrapher once put it in print that he never met but one man who acknowledged that he was happy in the marriage relation and that he believed him to be a liar. That was a very cynical way of looking at and summing it up. It is not uncommon for people who are unhappy in their family relations to think that everybody else is. They see through a glass darkly. There are millions of happy homes, in which the usual ups and downs of man and wife are common, but in the main the home life is even and happy. The few who have troubles of their own that get into the newspapers and the courts as compared to the many who do not is very suggestive. "What fool's these mortals be," the wise poet wrote it and his observation justifies it in the life of the few rather than in the life of the many. As it was in his day so it is in ours. Perhaps it will always be that way. We could wish it otherwise, but that would not change the fact. After all, the marriage life, with all of its hazards, is the only natural and satisfactory relation of the man and the woman. Outside the marriage relation there is always danger for the man and the woman, and the danger frequently degenerates into tragedy. We have one such about once or twice a month in Harlem, where we live, or exist, as the case may be, and living and existing are not the same. Last year the courts of New York were kept busy and everybody was on tiptoe about the proceedings in which a banker tried to prove that his pretty young wife was of Negro parentage, and in another case in which a New York banker tried to prove that a young son of his wife was the child of an Indian guide. It was nasty business, and in these two and another case of like sort the husbands got the worst of it. But their married lives was all broken up because the question of different race crossings and clandestine associations got, mixed up in their domestic relations. Europe was scandalized last year by the murder of a rich Egyptian prince in London, supposedly by a young French woman he had married, and whose ways were so different, whose outlook on life was so at variance, that they could not get along together. She would not have married him if he had not been wealthy and she could not get along with him because he was an Egyptian. A great sensation was created in South Africa recently when the authorities prevented the marriage of a young Scotch woman to an East Indian doctor, but in the end it may prove best for the two. During the past week London has been scandalized by a suit at law which showed that a young East Indian prince, whose name the government kept out of the court records, had been swindled out of $750,000 by a bunch of gamblers, one of whom used his beautiful wife to entangle and compromise the young fool, who was willing to pay that much money to hush up the scandal, which got into the courts in spite of his efforts, because the gamblers fell out over a division of the loot. Yes, "what fools these mortals be!" And none of us has to go very far to find the fools in the man and the woman who go crazy, while it lasts, over each other, and then fall out and fight. losing their sleep over the "awful tragedy," are blue blood (?) descendants of such men as Victor Hugo, Alexander Hamilton, Horace Greeley, Alexander Dumas or Alexander Punshkin? If geneology was to be traced the family cloests of some of the country's "cream" would reveal some gruesome skeletons. The facts are that Miles Bostrice Jones, now Mrs. Leonard, Kip Rhinehander, failed to "paint" for white, but others have passed, and others will paint, and the country's ultra-society leaders will not be a bit worse, although they may horse-forward a blood test before you can enter the "Four Hundred" fold.

Negro Just Beginning To Show in Science From The New York Sun The appearance of Dr. George W. Carver in this city reminds New York of dynamic and unrecognized possibilities in the American Negro. The race that has produced "Blind Boone," Flora Baton, Paul Laurence Dunbar, Roland Hayes and Charles Glinp in often thought of as holding potential gifts of an artistic kind, for the United States. Dr. Carver, a fellow in the Royal Society of Great Britain and a winner of the Spingarn medal, forces a consideration of the Negro's scientific possibilities. He has developed 118 products from the sweet potato, 176 from the peanut, 85 from the pecan and 300 from the common clay of the south. Such work is important enough in itself, but anakes on an added importance because it has utilized products with which the Negro farmer has a daily acquaintance. From his laboratory at Tuskegee Institute Dr. Carver seems not unlikely to send out Negro pupils trained to have a great effect on the life of millions of his own race. Men like him will do more to solve the "Negro problem" than any number of excited Southern whites and indignant disfranchised Negroes. These must play their part in the eventual solution; as long as there is unjust discrimination against any race there will be protest and proposals for correction of abuse and injustice. But a sufficient number of Carvers constitute a very permissive argument on the Negro's behalf for privileges of which he has been deprived. And if the result of their work is to increase the intelligence and prosperity of Negro farmers, and manufacturers of farm products their significance in the development of a future America is difficult to exaggerate.

HEALTH TOPICS Lack of Thought Is Dangerous Following along the lines of discussion which we took in the last article, we come to the subject of "not thinking," or as some people might say, "not worrying." I was telling you that disease is not caused by thinking of it or fearing it, but may be relighted by undermining the health through worry. In many words I pointed out that worry is never the criminal, but it may be an accessory to the crime, so to speak. It does come in. Worry is, therefore dangerous and to be condemned "Contrariwise," as Tweedledee, would say, not thinking is dangerous. There is a difference between thinking of illness and worrying about it. It is a mistake to say to one who speaks about certain symptoms as being sufficiently alarming to necessitate sending for a doctor, that he should "forget it" and not worry. It is not "worry" to know that the door has been blown off the hinges and to say that the carpenter should be called. It is a sane recognition of fact and a logical suggestion. To go around wringing one's hands and become the possibility that the snow is to be blown into' the hall and the house is to be chilled while not doing anything to correct the condition—that is comparable to "worry" about sickness. It is well known that many diseases could be cured if recognized in time, while the symptoms are vague and the patient is experiencing only the distress of "not feeling very well." Cancer treated early can be eradicated. Tuberculosis found before great damage is done can be "cured." And so it is with many, many disease conditions. To deny that there is something wrong, with the state of body or mind, to avoid "seeming to be sick" by refusing medical care, is to fool one's self and nobody else. It is dangerous because the underlying condition may be serious and delay makes the possibilities of cure that much more uncertain. Don't worry. That never helps. Think. That always helps. Either you are sick or you are not sick. If you are not sick the doctor will put the idea out of your mind by explaining what the apparent difficulty actually is. If you are sick he will give you the aid which is necessary to brim about cure, if cure is possible. In any case, you will be benefited by having taken thought.

The superiority of those who established the premises of their own preeminence and with almost unparalleled devotion made the rules to prove it. would be accepted in any age less turbulent and logical than outs as a self-evident truth. Disorderly elements, however, are at work, now an fever—or hardly ever before. Since Mr. Lothrop Stoddard and others started boating the Nordic race (tail and bonde, with a long head blue or gray eyes and fair skin) in opposition to the Mediterranean race (short, dark and long-headed) and the Alpine race (dark, short and skullled). I have come across numerous adverne reviews which indicate that the whole matter must be gone into again. I do not wish to impugn the motives of the younger intelligenza, who have been particularly ennipy. It is improbable that the younger intelligenza are all short and dark. Nor do I credit the report that.

Burrowing of clogged sewers is the high wall and clogging the Nordica. We must look and dig. Before taking on the more complicated problems institutional to a consideration of Mr. Sheldon's "Racial Resistance in Europe" (Charles Sornier's Bone), one may wonder whether this author has not poke about clarifying the Nordica in the wrong way. It is not possible that he should have concentrated more upon the main point that Nordica are tall and blonde, with a long head, blue or gray eyes, and a fair skin? Here is something regarding which a sensible man can hardly be of this mind. Any objection to the Nordica must be based upon some defect in the body of vision or a sluggish functioning of the brain or a poplary affliction which might in time respond to proper treatment. There can be little question about the highly satisfying appearance of the Nordica. They certainly put up a good front. You can't deny that. When I think of some of the Nordics I have seen I just have to drop everything and let memory take its course. At the time I didn't notice whether they were dolichocephalic, but I suppose no. Fair they undoubtedly were. Blue or gray eyes. Hair like—but don't get started. I am not saying that Mr. Stoddard is solely responsible for this perfectly stupifying color scheme, but he deserves credit for even mentioning it. Anything bearing upon the subject seems to me to meet all the requirements of literature. Each reluctant step away is a mistake. Take the Sweden, now. Mr. Standard gives them a send-off, emounting to a character because they are intelligent, industrious, peace-loving and expert politician. What I say in, they are bloody. What if they weren't anything else, isn't that enough? Bearing this well in mind, I have often thought of moving to Scandinavia and devoting my declining year. If I may so express it, to feats on the ford. There is something about them. Not that I wish to hurt any one's feelings. I have my Mediterranean moments and days when my motto is "Excelsior." I do not account it a great virtue to discriminate too closely among God's creatures. But by and large—well, you know how it is. Yes, I like the Nordica—I say it right out—because I like their looks. I know nothing about other people, but it is just possible that their preferences spring from the same source as my own. They do my that our choice of races and what not is the result of fixations, some infantile, and some that you could hardly call that. What with the abundance of Nordic aureumals and the marked fairness of many of the distaff adds, it is not astonishing that scholars, be their superimposed theories never be启蒙, and imperial, sometimes speak up strongly for peaches and cream. If Freud does not uphold me in this, he gets no more free "ada" out of me. Several other imperfections might be pointed out in Mr. Stoddard's presentation and in his opponents. Some of the critics, for instance, received but coolly his announcement that different races are different. True, this may now be regarded as a part of the usual equipment of the intellectually alert, but the others have to learn it somewhere. Of course, I knew it. It has long been the custom in our family to hand down this bit of erudition from father to child. When the oldest son arrives at his maturity he is taken aside Graham badly assumes our author of the course of simplicity and intelligibility. When he decribes that we are intelligent or that "Italy is long and narrow in shape, its fancied resemblance to a back-boot, being a geographical commonplace," not everybody is thrilled. I am not startled myself, but that may be because my standard of starling is singularly high and going up. It infuriates certain readers to be told that Spain and Portugal "together occupy the Iberian Peninsula." There might be grounds for complaint if Mr. Steadard had gone on to deduce a peninsula, carefully distinguishing it from an archipelago or an isthmus. But he doesn't. Safety and calmly he merely bounds it, leaping his critics almost entirely surrounded by confusion. The only flaw I can pick in the book is the idea that the Nordica, aside from their complexions, are any better than other races. I am afraid that some of the Nordic qualities that Mr. Stoddard most admires, such as high political ability, self-control, love of order, stability and polite, are just the ones which have led the lefts to regard the Nordica as such frightful bores. I know for a fact that not all Nordics are perfect. I have met some who have made little progress in the arts and crafts, whose general culture has remained at the food-gathering stage, and whose family tree seems to have contained a goodly scattering of Veddas, Andamanese Islands, Dyaks and Kubu, with maybe a couple of Newfoundland Beothuks, [extinct] Mr. Stoddard's insistence upon their universal righteousness would lead me, if I had a suspicious nature, to conclude that he has an anom to grind. The classifying methods of Mr. Standard and those who swear by "biology—the science of race" seem open to argument. They divide us by tests, including "skull measurement, hair formation and color of eyes and skin," and this technique, while perhaps faulty, at least gives employment to a large and deserving body of skull measurements, hair testers and skin observers. I should favor arranging us, if at all, according to the distance clapping between the inside and the outside of the cranial roof, thus separating, those of moderate osseous tendencies from those for whom the Germans have coined the happy expression, "dick." This could easily be done by a house-to-house canvass, and while I should not expect it to make any difference in anything, it would be a lot of fun doing it. "Racial Realities in Europe" provides a complete survey of all the European countries. Scandinavia and England seem to be the most Nordic of all, and therefore most likely to remain friendly to the United States. If it can stay Nordic. And "If the United States should cease to be mainly a Nordic land, our America would pass away." France and Germany are rapidly becoming Alpineized. The Balkans are so mixed up that anything may happen. As Mr. Stoddard puts it, "startling surprises may be in store." Certainly the Balkans could not behave worse if they were Nordics. They might well take up "biology—the science of race." It couldn't do them much harm. Nordics, at least, are gentlemen, intimates our author, and the rulers of Rome in her glory had the good taste to be dolichocephalic. To "think of the stern, practical unimaginative Roman participation as a typical Mediterranean," he says, "in nothing short of ludicrous." It gets funnier the more you think of it. Egyptians First Introduced Handkerchiefs It is difficult to assign a period and a country of origin to the handkerchief. But it seems to have been known in remote ages, and traces of it are to be found among the Egyptians. On the contrary, strange as it may seem, the Greeks appear not to have been considered very improper to blow one's nose in public or to wipe the perspiration from one's forehead or face. Parking from the Greeks to the Romans, we find that the latter had something of the kind which they called "sudarium" (sudor, sweat). It was of the finest face, and was used chiefly as an ornament and as a fan during the games in the circus; it may thus be considered as the forefather of the handkerchief. For many centuries afterwards there is no mention of handkerchiefs, and we only find traces of them about 1550. In Italy. It appears that one day a Venetian lady of the nobility, possibly to wipe off the perspiration, cut a piece of linen in an eval shape and trimmed it with a border of the finest fronds. When the other Venetian grand ladies saw her on the public promenade, provided with this new piece of elegance, they imitated her, and the handkerchief came into existence. It passed over the frontier, was adopted abroad and became the rage at the court, of Henry II. It is curious that for many years the handkerchief was round and oval, and, it was not until the time of Louis-XVI that it became square.

CHINESE ATHLETICS COLLEGE SCHOLARSHIP A Dangerous Tendency Nationalble in Most of the Schools of the Country Balanced Education Best From the Newport News Star. College activism are focussed nowadays upon new objectives. Once the foremost scholar was the enviod of all his scholomates and the hero of his clea. The faculty looked to him to defend the name of his alma mater. Upon him was laid the burden of bearing his side of mooted questions. His arguments were of necessity nophobic, but they invariably indicated the trend of his reasoning and were an arguory of his future career, as well as an evidence of the character of preparation his college emphasized. To win an intercollegiate debate or to carry off the honors in a test of excellence in a thesis or in any other competitive feat of pure scholarship was to gain a distinction that was not only valued by the victor, but usually affected those who interested themselves in his progress through the world of work and struggle. That was the old order in our highest institutions of learning, which was followed by all grades below them in those activities that keep up the spirit and morale of our schools. But our observation is that there is now in almost all colleges, high schools and other institutions of learning a departure from the old order of giving honor to those who excel in the essentials of intellectual or mental accomplishments and a decided recognition of the physical or athletic side of school life. Leaders in mathematics, chemistry, astronomy, history, bellestetreets and other allied subjects to these essential requirements of college achievements have been replaced in popular acclaim by those who excel in such diversions, as football, baseball and other physical accomplishments, requiring, of course, some mental excellence, but which do not necessarily signify that such favorites have applied themselves to a point of distinction in the classes and the other indispensable branches of learning. As with the schools, so with the public. There seems to be a tendency to make paramount the athlete to side of the student's life. We do not undertake to criticize this latter day attitude or to point a moral. We simply record our observation. One thing is certain: this devotion of the schools and public to the sports that are now so generally hidged in is an evidence that the love of physical contest is still an elemental instinct of the human race, and may the best team win. The Grecians were not only famous because of their Olympic games, but the eloquence of their greatest opener was said to be "unapproached forever." We plead, therefore, for an even well balanced training, developing the student physically and mentally, into a well-rounded human, fit and ready to do his share of the world's work.

Everywhere in the civilized world comes a series of reports of the shaking of governments, dethroning of officials, and scandals of various kinds. It's in parties, it's in nations, it's in international government, and the situation becomes more turbulent as the time goes on. Men of high position are found doing common and destructive things. There is an unrest, there is a wanting to know, a dangerous suspicion which puts every man and leader in a questionable state. Somewhere it is written that you may count upon the people when you may not be protected in the hands of the law. That is to say, when the people decide that administrators are too corrupt with the law, they immediately doormm and set at naught leadership of whatever nature or kind. Leaders are prepared to administer when they hold steadily, and in balance, the minds and wishes of the people. The shaken confidence, so apparent throughout the civilized world, is not without reason, and it is not all through passion and jealousy. Some of our leadership, a great bit of it, has acted buffetrect. If not openly criminal. And, because of this, confidence is shaken, the government is weaker, and leadership threatened.

It is to be understood and demonstrated one day that the humblest people within the nation, or the people in the ranks, are not the only offisks subjected to law, and the rules of the court. But every man who violates, the law subjects himself to the court, and is answerable to some hawful tribunal, most certainly. If it's in state, it's to the state court; if it's in church, it's to church court then; if it's in society, fraternal or otherwise. It's there he must make his answer, and that under due process.

That is, they must not violate their own statutes through which, and only which, they have a right to be. We do dangerous things to society and the future growth of humanity when we shake the confidence of the people who, make society, and who perpetuate it by the sweat of their brow. We make the most dangerous and criminal error when we misuse the trust and confidence of that group who must look to leadership, manhood and acceptable character for its protection. We may dodge the fangs of the law and escape just punishment, but we will not and cannot escape public sentiment and public condemnation.

UNDERFATHERS and EMBALMERS TO WEST 141st STREET, NEW YORK CITY Please Be Sure to All Parties of the World To the Editor of the Negro World: The Harlem Hebrew Day and Night Nursery, 88 West 11th street, New York City, has undertaken to build a new shelter home of 81 and 89 West 118th street, which will shelter about five hundred little unfortunate fatherless and motherless children, and we appeal to you and ask you— Did it ever occur to you that there are in our City of New York, thousands of children who are not living, just merely existing? Did you ever ask yourself how a poor widow manages to support her unfortunate children? Truth is a high mountain, but man will ascend the heights. All that is of an opposite nature will be subdued by the love of truth. The world will be cleansed and renovated, and then our race will stand forth in the brightness and beauty of its nature. Our institution shelters these distressed children, providing them with clothing, food and medicine, free of charge. Orphans, little ones who but a short time ago were so happy, tenderly watched over and protected by a loving father and mother; babes all alone and helpless, their dear parents have been taken from them—poor little waltles. What will become of them? They do not understand what has happened; they do not know their loss. They just raise their tiny little hands and call for daddy and mother. Good people will find them and bring them to our new, home. But the institution is powerless to help unless you do your share, and you will, your great heart will respond to the cries of these parentless babies. One universal good, one constituting principle, one spring of thought and action, one grand and lofty aspiration, the love and quest of perfection; all will compose but one body therein, and the organs thereof will reciprocally assist and promote the good of each other. There will be no absorbents, no excreences, no superfluous or imperfect parts, as there will be no wretchedness, individual, or general, and no distress. Then will the race be perfect even as its prototype the man "Adam," and the earth will be one garden, the true Eden of existence, with humanity as one nation standing erect therein free from spot or blemish. Then shall the great tree concealed so long from mental view, but the whereof is eternal, assume its true form and spread its branches over the nations of the world. All interest beneath it will be one interest, all morals the glory of light and righteousness. It is the true tree of knowledge and its fruits will be the beatitude of mankind. We have given our pledge of faith to save the babies and build a new home for them. Give them as much as your means allow and help wipe away their tears and build for them a haven of comfort and happiness. We cannot give them back their mothers and fathers but we can and must give them a home. To this sacred task we are dedicated, and in the name of the dear little ones, give what you can, and the blessings of the poor orphans that we are serving so well will be your eternal reward. That will be the true millennium, when the united voices of the world will unite in the grand chorus, "Peace on earth, good will to men." These prophetic thoughts are based upon the principles that, as truth is positive and eternal it must subdue error, which is only temporal and artificial, and as knowledge is truth in its realization it must overcome its opposite beings—ignorance, superstition, vice and misery. The one is the root of those laws which control the universe, while the others belong to crushed and perverted understanding. The hand of truth and wisdom is omipotent and must pre-Paralex Cabal Zone Panama. In our thirteen years of existence we have sheltered thousands of unfortunate little boys and girls, who through no fault of their own were left fatherless and motherless, without appealing to any of our people for financial help.

Mrs. Rodgers of the Woman's Page will regret to learn that she was for several weeks Mrs. Amy-Jacquie Garvey, who edits the page, has been confined to her home as a result of a minor accident. We are sure that the readers have missed the brilliancy her treatment of editorial subjects and her unusual judgment in collection of special and contributed matter. You have to have a look for such work as Mrs. Garvey is capable of in the conduct of Woman's Page; that is, you must be born with the genius and, however we may think of it, genius in any department of human endeavor is a very rare thing. Most of us have to know how to do things by long and tiresome labor, and then we only what we have learned in a sort of mechanical way. Mrs. Garvey's editorial work just seems to come natural to her. All the readers of the Woman's Page, we are sure, will hope that Mrs. Garvey may soon recover her health and return to the editorial work she loves so well.—Editor of The Negro World. MURDER OF A GIRL AROUSES WRATH OF NATIVE AFRICANS THE murder of a young African girl whom he had abused by a young Dutch farmer, and letting him off with imprisonment for a few weeks at hard labor, has aroused the natives of South Africa as nothing else of late has done. And, why not? If a man or a race of men cannot be aroused to indignation, wrath, and the fighting point by abuse of their women, how are they to be aroused? The whites of South Africa insist, as those of our Southern States do, that we must respect their women while they are left free to abuse ours. It is a high-handed rule, and any lot of man who will stand for it deserve to be kicked and cuffed and jailed and scoffed. It is a mighty healthy sign that the natives of South Africa are resenting abuse of their women by white men. Negro men everywhere must become more alive and sensitive to the importance of protecting their women and girls from abuse. They must start with themselves. If they do not set the example of doing so how can they expect others to do it? They simply do not. As a matter of fact, Negro men have held their women and girls too cheaply. Are they doing so now? It is to ask. Try This PROVEN WAY TO STOP FALLING HAIR and DANDRUFF Dandruff, falling hair, itching scalp and baldness are enemies to scalp health and the growth of long, lustrous hair.

A friend of mine who was an operator at a downtown factory, where white and colored help were employed, was informed one afternoon that all help would have to be laid off for a couple, of days, as business was dull and that she would be notified when there was work. After waiting for about two weeks and not receiving any call, she went down to see the employer, who is a Jew. At the same time she noticed that the white help were working and he colored. She then inquired of him the time should she return to her. He told her that he had all the help he needed at present. She therewith upbraided him for decelering her. Whereupon he relied: "Don't come here to make an argument with me. Why don't you go to Harlem and advise your colored men that instead of building half a million dollar churches to build factories and employ you colored women." She felt the truthfulness of his statement, but replied, "that is not the point. You employed me before and I gave you good service." But he interrupted by saying, "I have got to employ my own people who are out of work in this dull season." I bring this to the attention of the readers of this valuable paper, because we Negro women have a very hard time getting work, and are constantly told by our white employers that all we do with the money we earn is to support preachers who build big churches where we go to once a week and from Monday to Saturday we go worrying white folk for work. We Negro women are tired of this kind of a thing and feel that our men are exposing us to abuse and ill-treatment. We are compelled to work, for our men can't support us and our children. Our only hope is in the teaching of the U. N. I. A. that is shaping an industrial and economic program. AMELIA SAYERS. New York. Mrs. Walker Gets Divorce In Los Angeles Court Los Angeles, Calif., Nov. 23.—Before Dept. No. 3 of the Superior Court, the Hign. J. W. Summergeld presiding. A.Leila Walker, whose married name is Wilson, was granted a divorce from her husband, Dr. Wiley Wilson, age 44, a physician of 200 W. 13&thickthick;street, New York City, on Nov. 7. Mrs. Wilson was represented by Attorney Willis O. Tyler and the complaint alleged the technical ground of desertion. It was disclosed by the testimony adduced at the hearing that the repatriation took place during the year 1921 and that the underlying cause of the repatriation was a series of furtiveness, with certain women friends of the porties which were carried on by the defendant, Dr. Wilson. The doctor was not represented in the proceedings. Mothers often ask so much concerned about the physical health of their children that they overlook or slight a phase of child life fully as important. Building group bodies, of course, is essential but along with body building the child should be trained in character building. After the child begins to show his individuality one of the first phrases of his training which his parents encountered is obedience. In his early life the child should form the habit of obedience. He hasn't the wisdom or the reasoning power to know what is best for his health or his safety. It is necessary then that he recognize his elder's word as law. As the child begins to develop and show traits of character, desire of parents for obedience is too frequently a matter of vanity rather than a look into the real benefit of the child. A fear that neighbors or relatives will think due respect is not being given them overshadows the question of why obedience should be demanded in any particular instance. Johnnie starts down the front steps with his kiddie car. He handles it clumsily, slowly places it on one step, then steps around to the next, takes it up again, and continues in this method, which seems painfully awkward, to his mother, who is watching him from the porch. "Let mother help you," she suggests, taking the car away from him. Johnnie replies with sarcasm or "No, no. I want to do it myself," followed by kicking and more screaming and wrathful words. Of course, her commands that he quiet down are unheeded. The boy stays in the house the rest of the morning as a punishment and the day for him is utterly ruined. If the mother had looked at the matter thoughtfully she would have seen that it really was wiser to let her son carry the kiddie car down the steps by himself than for her to do it for him. Awkward though his movements were, he was being his little used muscles into play and he was gaining in motor control. Learning to do things early for oneself means aurer muscular control in later life. Johnnie, of course, should have been corrected for his violent screaming, but quiet reasoning from his mother would have brought better results than her display of temper. Four-year-old, is arriving at the age when he does a little reasoning for himself. The very worst means of bringing about obedience is by severe punishment. Some parents offer bribes. This, too, is a questionable method, for before long the child demands bribes for everything he does. To threaten is equally bad. Threats that are not fulfilled soon lose their effect. Often when a parent corrects a child for some annoying act he fails to offer him any other activity to use up his surplus energy. Throwing a ball in the room when there is company displays bad manners, but the child is merely thoughtless. If his training has been good a substitution of more quiet amusement is all that is necessary. When the child first begins to reason the parent should seize the opportunity to appeal to his better judgments. When he asks why he should do a certain thing one often hears the reply, "Because I say no." If the reason is good and at all comprehensible to the child, this should be a time to give him an understanding of the rightness of things. Children who are taught principles soon learn to act wisely for themselves. Instead of being mere machines, they are human beings, alive with thought and developing judgment. They are beginning to learn to manage their own lives. That Apple a Day Now that nearly all summer fruits are gone, we must resort to the old standby, the apple. Chemically, the apple is composed of vegetable fiber, albumen, sugar, gum, malic acid, lime, chlorophyll and gallic acid, also much water. Furthermore, the German analysts say that the apple contains a larger per cent of phosphorous than any other fruit or vegetable. The phosphorous is admirably adapted for renewing the essential nervous matter—lecithin—of the brain and spinal cord. It is, perhaps, for the same reason, rudely understood, that old Scandinavian tradition represents the apple as the food of the gods, who, when they fulf themselves to be growing feeble and infirm, reported to this fruit for renewing their powers of body and mind. Also, the acids of the apple are of signal use for men of sedentary habits, whose lives are sluggish in action, these acids serving to eliminate from the body noxious matters which: if retained, would make the brain heavy and full or bring about many diseases. Some such an experience must have led to our custom of taking apple sauce with roast pork, rich goose and like dishae. The malic acid of ripe apples, either raw or cooked, will neutralize any excess of shaly matter engendered by eating too much meat. It is also a fact that such fruits as the apple, the pear and the plum, when taken ripe and without sugar, diminish acidity in the stomach rather than provoke it. Their vegetable nutries and juices are converted into alkaline carbonates, which tends to counteract acidity. As a matter of fact, mothers don't train their daughters for the work ahead of them as wives. Girls are taught to dance and play the piano, to typwrite and teach school and a hundred other very fine and useful things. But not one in fifty ever goes into the kitchen and the sewing room with her mother to learn the all-important profession of housekeeping. A girl gets much advice about being sweet and "baggling" her man, but not much about caring for him afterward. Almost every young couple has been told that the first year is the hardest—that it's the difficult time of adjusting and adapting yourselves to each other's ways. And so it is. But much of the trouble could be avoided if the bride knew a little more about making up a household budget or sewing on buttons. The girl who knows how to run her house right from the start has twice the chance of having a happy one than the girl who is just learning. For example, there's the problem of entertaining. It doesn't cost much to make a bowl of salad, some rolls and coffee and have a few friends in for Sunday night supper. And a dozen of such evenings will add more color and fun to life. For a group of friends in common is one of the strongest ties married people have. No matter how much in love with each other a man and his wife are, there's something lacking in their lives if they don't know other couples to visit occasionally. For all of us are grown-up children, more or less, and the most serious-minded man in the world needs to relax and forget his cares in an evening of one-stepping or mall-jongging now and then. Home-making in its best sense isn't drudgery, but art. It takes the eye of an artist to know that an orange-colored cushion and a bowl of yellow nasturtiums would brighten up the glorious corner of the home. And then if you can go ahead and make the cushion and grow the nasturtiums in a window-box you're not only an artist but an economist besides. There's undoubtedly a lot for a girl to learn if she is going to keep her home the place of comfort and charm that it can be. And it's ever so much better if she starts out knowing even half as much about the work ahead of her as husband knows about his job of providing the money to keep the house going. We wouldn't think of letting our daughters marry men who didn't have a job or weren't able to support a home of some sort, would we? Then why in the world don't we think more seriously of getting our daughters ready for the Real Adventure, as well?

Agency Vapital Sewing System, E.C. WASHINGTON, D. C.—Our 300 women students, faculty and alumni gathered in the dining hall of Howard University on Friday evening, November 7, for the Third Annual Women's Dinner. The custom of having the annual women's dinner was inaugurated three years ago by Dan Lucy D. Dlowes, and this has come to be the most important woman's function on the campus. Women students, 300 strong, led by the marshal marched into the dining hall singing college songs and giving lively cheers for good old Howard. The women faculty and alumnus at places of honor in the dining hall, applauded the marching students to the echo as they entered. The Program Committee arranged a most unique series of stunts by the various classes. The prize stunt was pulled off by the sophomore orchestra, under the able direction of Ellen Hill. Miss Hill's baton, a brand new pream with a big red bow, waved gracefully over her players, whose instruments of comba, tin pans and bicycle pumps made music, "loud and clear." Baltimore, Washington and Plainfield, N. J., were represented in the list of graduates. Everybody voted this dinner the best of all. Long Legs, Big Brains Seems to Be the Rule An American psychologist, Dr. Henry E. Garrett, asserts that the best brain worker is the man with long arms and legs and a small body. Men with short arms and legs and big bodies, he declares, are more suited for some manual trade, or at least a line of work requiring steadiness and accuracy rather than quickness of mind. This theory was recently tested by Dr. Garrett, and Dr. Sante Nocaratti, a New York specialist in nervous and mental diseases, on 300 students at Columbia university. The results tended to show that there is a very definite relationship between bodily structure and intelligence. Dr. Garrett states that of the men examined, 76 per cent. of the small-bodied, long-legged men, 40 per cent. of the normal men, and 15 per cent. of the large-bodied, short-legged men showed high intelligence. Henry Ford, John D. Rockefeller, General Perishing, Booth Tarkington and David Wark Griffith, all outstanding for their brains in their particular fields, are long-legged men with short bodies. George Washington, Abraham Lincoln and President Wilson were of the same type. U. S. Women's Victory Spurs German Fraus BERLIN—Heartened by the victories of "Mir" Ferguson, recently elected Governor of Texas, and Mrs. Naille G. Ross, Governor-elect of Wyoming, the German Federation of Women's Clubs has addressed a communication to the headquarters of all political parties pointing out the growing tendency to ignore women in nominating candidates for the Rechatag. The federation contends, despite the equality of the sexes in political matters, every Rechatag election since the revolution has shown fewer women nominees than the previous one. "Women have the indomitable will to fulfill their mission as citizens by active participation in politics," avers the federation's declaration. It is understood Foreign Minister Streisemann, chief of the People's Party, recently refused to give permission for the naming of Erbau von Oelbhom, who is known as Germany's Lady Astor, to head the Magdeburg District candidates, though she was one of the most popular figures in the 1920 Reichstag. Says the Venus de Milo Never Had Any Arms PARIS.—It may be some consolation to art lovers throughout the world who have wondered in what position were the missing arms of the famous Venus de Milo statue in the Louvre to learn that even the ancients themselves were perplexed on this point. Dr. Edde, a French physician, has just made known that during a recent visit to Egypt he came into possession of a small bronze statue of the same period as the Venus de Milo. This statue is in an exact copy of the famous Venus, and like the original, it has no arms. Dr. Edde, therefore, concludes that the Venus de Milo never at any time had arms, and he believes that the sculptor, when he had carved out of the stone such a divine form, gave up all idea of adding arms. When the Venus do Milo was discovered on the island of Milo a large reward was offered to any one who could find the arms, but in spite of extensive search nothing was discovered.

AND A HARRY WIFE in the New York "Evening Bulletin" When a man asks a woman to marry him, this is what he's really saying to her: "Will you love me always, and mend my clothes, and have my meals on time, and bring up my children, and live within my income, and be cheerful through it all?" And the woman, who is usually young and headless and terribly in love, answers "Yes" as a matter of course. For she's obeying a law of nature when she marries.

C.—The quality of work being done in the College of Pharmacy of Howard University is evidenced from the announcement recently made by Dr. Edward A. Balloch, dean of the School of Medicine, of the success which members of the class of 1824 have had in passing examinations of the various State boards. A report from the Howard University School-of-Medicine shows that the members of the class of 1824 who have successfully qualified to practice their profession are as follows: In West Virginia—Robert Early Black, Gregory Alexander Galvin, George Washington Robinson and Henry William Vanhook, Mr. Galvin made a general average of 93 per cent. In the District of Columbia—William Cullen David and Wayman Earl Johnson. In Maryland—Charles W. Barnum and Hiram H. Gibba. In Missouri—Maceo Birch. The following received certificates as qualified assistants from the Louisiana Board of Pharmacy: Coral Cincolair Christy, Leonard G. Israel and Joseph John Dejolo, of the class of 1925. The College of Pharmacy of the Howard University School of Medicine is thus maintaining the high standard set by the other departments of the University.

Lind, Sept. 26.—In the changing landscape of Indian history no name gender seemed today as that of Bal Gandhagar Tihak, who was the data to give modern India her first lesson in the doctrine of self-mortification and suffering as the imperative price of freedom. Born in a period when Indian nationalism was still in its nascent condition, Bal Gandhagar Tihak had to face a very difficult situation. Armchair politics was the order of the day in these far-off days, and the fate of India hung in the balance of bureaucratic favor. History of Indian Nationalism was still in the making, and the emergence of Tikh into the political arena who if he had chosen, might have become a successful lawyer, gave a new orientation to Indian affairs and staggered the self-compassant British bureaucracy. It had been the vogue among the bureaucrats, to descent on the altruistic mission of the British people of civilising the Oriental, and an earlier generation of Indians had quietly accepted the bureaucrat at his own valuation. Tilak, who was inspired by a higher impulse than currying favors at the hands of an alien bureaucracy, is immortalized in the hearts of his loving and grateful countrymen, as the pioneer, who changed entirely the currents of Indian politics and gave his countrymen a new outlook. It was Tilak who first unfolded to his countrymen the idea that Hope Rule was the birthright of every Indian. Such an idea was foreign to an earlier generation of Indian politicians who were content to accept the attainment of a subordinate position in the Indian official hierarchy as the summary bonum of their political and social existence and these were not, unnaturally, shocked at what to them seemed revolutionary ideas, propounded by Tilak. There was fierce opposition to Tilak and his doctrines. The bureaucracy lost no opportunity in attempting to silence Tilak, and tried to use the "moderate" elements to divert the popular mind from Tilak's patriotic teachings. Tilak was mercilessly persecuted, but his spirit did not quail before suffering. Every fresh attack of the bureaucracy only helped to enhance the lustre of Tilak, and he emerged from successive acts of persecution the purer and the nobler. The landmarks in Tilak's life are also the landmarks of his country. His first great step associated him in a pioneer movement whose object was to educate the people for a new life, resulting in the founding of the Fergusson College at Poona, his birthplace, and in the initiation of the Kesari newspaper, which has increasingly figured as the characteristic expression of Maharashtra—a term which connotes all that territory which once comprised the Maratha Empire founded by Shivaji. Tilak also founded the Shivaji celebration as an emblem and preparation of indians for political freedom. The celebration, which at first excited the fierce jealousy of the alien bureaucracy, and was the fruitful source of political prosecutions for sedition, has maintained its importance in the Indian national calendar and continues to be celebrated with great ecstat to this day. Not less striking was the inauguration of the Genapal festival, which falls at the beginning of the sixth month of the Hindu calendar. In doing these Tilak was actuated by the idea of reawakening not only the political mind, but the soul of the people ```markdown ``` A white gold-filled case, lenhau shape, a jewel movement, fancy dial, engraved bezel GET THIS WATCH--Compare it with any all others at the same price and if you are not satisfied your money comes back to you.

With also succeeded in changing the principal creed of the people he left with the first political leader, who built perhaps the educational methods of the early Congress and issued the country on the royal road of suffering and self-inferiority. He thrice served successors of imprisonment in British salis, but this period of compulsory rest was a blessing in disguise. It revealed the great Orientalist in Tilak, and perhaps but for this root in his restive activities, who knows the world might have been the poster Without his 'Orton or the Arcte Monkey' in the Vedas and 'The Gita Mahayana,' both profound treatises in Oriental scholarship! The crowning episode in Tilak's career was the unparalleled demonstration of political fervor and religious enthusiasm which his countryman accorded to him on his arrival as American in December, 1819, to attend the annual session of the Congress, which decided to boycott the Montagu reforms. It was a historic occasion and the demonstration itself is ineffaceable from living memory. Tilak died in the August following great in death as in life, mourning universally by his countrymen, regardless of cause, creed or color. It was a memorable day when, in spite of torrential rains, 600,000 men and women followed his funeral bier to the cremation ground. Four years have only heightened the sorrow of the people at the irreparable void left by his death at the height of glory, which has not been given even to royalty to share. It was in the fitness of things that Poona should be the first, on the day of his fourth anniversary, to unveil a status to the memory of Tilak; as a reminder to posterity that India is not only rich in his traditions, but also in her sons who have lived and died for their glorious Motherland. Tilak's legacy to posterity as well as to the present generation is: "HOME RULE IS MY BIRTHRIGHT." And before Tilak's ashes were cold this dicum had become universal by its acceptance throughout the length and breadth of the land of his birth.

J. Mason." "A still longer make a wise head; but a feel is known by the multitude of his words." - Nible. I desire for the benefit of those who fail to hear Mr. Carrgee's address, to say that the scribe referred too failed to hear it or that he lacks ability to grasp the meaning of the address; or that he is too biased to refer to what was said in plain English words. That weakly mislead in anything but a reply to what Marcus Carrgee said. It is propaganda of a man of my race who has the "cynical habit" (to use his big word) of knocking everything that starts in the race if he is not the leading spirit or, as he would say, the "dictator." Knockers of his kind called Booker Washington "A White Polka Negro" because he succeeded in soliciting thousands of dollars from white people to found Tuskegee but he was original in his plans, forged ahead, and now there stands in this land of roses Tuskegee Institute, a monument to Booker T. Washington, with a city operated by Negroes and a glory to the race. This heredity critic claims that Mr. Garvey criticised everything that my race has accomplished since 1865. He is again in error. Mr. Garvey, in reply to the address of welcome, said that "The good deeds and assistance that we had received at the hands and from the hearts of the noble white philanthropists of this country for our race we should be thankful, but the time had come for us to take this example and establish a nation for our generations years to come." He said "that weeds a race had done nothing toward our perpetuation as a nation. We should step out like the white man has done and carry to success the U. N. I. A. program." Get behind him and push, help him to do something for our race as a nation. Does this writer agree, or is he one of that number in my race who wants to lead and has not yet learned to follow?

KATHERINE AUSTIN, Reporter Musical Organizations On the Howard Campus WASHINGTON, D. C. The year 1924-2015 birds fair to become a banner year for the various musical organizations on the campus. Already, elaborate programs are in process of formation by the students, who are broadcasting Howard's fame by means of vocal and instrumental music. The Glee Club, under the leadership of Prof. Roy W. Tibbs, is planning an extensive tour through the northern and western States during the spring months. The Girl's Glee Club, led by Miss Caroline Grant, boasts of more musical talent this year than ever before. This organization rendered "The Lost Necklace," with Miss Cecelia McLeod as the leading soloist, very acceptably in the chapel last spring. The vested choir, under the direction of Miss Lulu V. Childers, is living up to its past reputation as a smooth singing combination. Sergeant Doryc T. Rhodes, orchestra director and leader of the R. O. T. C. bend, reports that our orchestra will appear in the Artist Course Series at the Lincoln Theatre, February 4, 1925, at which time Prof. Wesley Howard will be the violin soloist. The Artist Course Series has become an institution in the musical life of Washington. The R. O. T. C. band of 58 pieces, the largest in its history, is planning a concert tour during the Christmas holidays. Last year, this band entered professional competition and won second prize in the John Wesamaker championship at Philadelphia. Make bento lice and cinderfur each day a new lice. After we have felicitated ourselves on the measure of success we have so far achieved in our political struggles, we should not overlook the fact that we have another problem to solve in order to hasten our progress to the stage that makes for a happy and prosperous nation. We refer to the problem of industrial co-operation which we have to solve so as to make any measure of political emancipation we may achieve in the future fully enjoyable. This question of industrial cooperation is a very thorny one, but its solution is imperative, especially in view of the growing impoverishment of the people, and if we can only bring to bear on the solution the same spirit and grim determination with which in the past we had faced and surmounted our political difficulties, we have no doubt that success will crown our efforts in this direction also. The greatness of a nation is not based chiefly on the intellectual attainments of its people in these days of gross materialism and we can be sure that if the European nations, that now boss the world, have only their learning and wisdom to rely on without an accumulation of wealth, they will not be as powerful and dictatorial as they now are. Learning may be better than silver and gold, as we used to slug at school, but we are living in a corrupt age in which the man with plenty of silver and gold, but without the moral and intellectual equipment can often take longer strides than the mere man of intellect. It is obvious, then that while we are seeking for political and intellectual advance we should not neglect the means for economic advance also. It is true that the bindrances in the way of our people achieving economic independence are great and that if they have hitherto failed to reach the goal of their ambition it has not been for want of trying, for the reference to this matter will recall to the reader's mind the countless number of native industrial companies which have been floated only to fail. But we must not think of giving up the struggle even though we have tried once or twice and failed. We have to face the fact that the country is being steadily impoverished and that it is our task to arrest the tide somehow. The present stringent economic conditions are partly the effects of a fiscal system which makes it difficult for the people to make money out of any industry they take in, hand, and partly the result of the ingenious official methods of developing the country which enable foreign workmen to bleed the people. We have the instance of the Takoradi harbor works, launched under official auspices, which have enabled one foreign engineering firm to make out of us £20,000 within two years, over an incomplete job, and we ask in all earnestness, how is wealth to be retained in the country with this endless drain on its resources? How is money to remain in the country to increase the volume of local circulation when thousands upon thousands of pounds are annually reimbursed out of it by its expensive schemes and by the fat salaries and heavy passage fares of white officials? The population of the country is shown as two and a quarter millions, but we very much doubt if among them can be found ten Africans with an average wealth of £50,000, or whether ten out of every thousand are worth £100 at the present time. The total trade of this country in the past year is shown as $16,000,000, a very fine figure on paper, but how much have the people, whose industry contributed to this result, made out of this trade? If we examine the situation closely in the light of our experience of the actual living conditions of our people, we will find that they have practically made nothing out of this large trade and that like slaves or hirelings on an estate they have been working for the enrichment of foreigners. We warn our people that the position is already desperate and that unless we begin to think hard and to consider remedial measure, the position will grow worse and the country will not be a place fit for our children to live in. We believe we can achieve some success and ensure ourselves a measure of economic independence if we would take a leaf out of our political note book. When we are faced with official proposals which aim at depriving us of our lands or of circumscripting our freedom of access to our forests and to the products thereof, we do not set to work individually or by direct individual action as we now do in our commercial ventures. What we do when we are faced with some political menace is to beat the war drum, gather the tribes together and then to act unitedly; and we have always been successful when we have gone to work in this wise. Why, then, do we elect to purpose the one-man, business system which is going out of practice in European countries? We can only find an answer to the question in that we have never pondered seriously on the problems in spite of our repeated failures in the compact ad to bind every interested party thereunder to meet his objection, the frequent failures would be avoided. When a few people have NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBERS AND AGENTS OF THE NEGRO WORLD I am personally appealing to all agents and subscribers of The Negro World to be more regular in their payments for the paper. While it is our policy to have the paper widely circulated for the good of the race, yet it becomes impossible for us to continue to meet the heavy cost of production without subscribers and agents making prompt payments. We were forced to cut down on the pages of the paper for the last four issues to be able to keep up with the demand of production. We are again restoring the paper to sixteen pages weekly, and everyone can help us to continue and even increase the size by prompt payment of all bills. in this matter, we shall move to study the white man's methods and copy them so as in time we can come into with him to ensure our own cooperate independence. This is not a thing we might do. It is a task we must set our hands to, as our very future happiness depends upon it. The first factor which we have to recognise in the matter is the need for organization, for if in starting commercial concerns we first make sure that the organizations are so agreed to come together, for the purpose of starting a commercial enterprise it is necessary, on the principle that too many cooks spoil the broth, to entrust the active management of the enterprise to a few of the members. But it should be the rule that those entrusted with the active management be men of character who are elected to their position not by virtue of their social position, as if it were a tribal or family affair, but by reason of the fact that they hold the largest interests in the concern and are likely to suffer the most if the business goes to smash through mismanagement. This is how they do it in other civilised countries, and it is a practice we should follow to our advantage. We should avoid raising men of straw and the social derelicts to responsible positions in our political and commercial affairs, and we should always aim at securing the services of the men who have a reputation to lose. The men entrusted with the management of a business being well accured by reason of their large holdings in the enterprise, it follows that those to be employed as salesmen or factors should also be required to secure themselves against deficiencies or defications. Then also proper accountancy and auditing must be given a special place in the management since these are the compass by which trade captains are enabled to steer the ship through the uncharted sea of commerce, and there must be periodical reports of accounts, whether results are good or bad, to all who have interests in the concern. Whatever we do we must be on our guard against the sleeping partner—we do not mean the partner who arranges beforehand to keep away and he content with anything that comes to him, but the one who at the outset pledges himself to devote time and attention to the promotion and working of a business but soon loses enthusiasm and falls out. We can give an almost accurate description of the prospective sleeping partner of the class we have alluded to; he makes the loudest speeches at public meetings and the biggest show of determination to "see the thing through." He is the man who takes you a mile or two on the way, points out to you the milestones, and tells you he is going back to fetch something he has left behind in the house, but never returns. Such people should be dropped out of any serious venture. We have no doubt that if our people follow the methods of the European as to the formation and working of business enterprises as fully dealt with in this article we shall succeed and gradually begin to build substantial business in the country which will make us economically independent. Our people are born traders and they only require to organize themselves on solid basis to run successful commercial enterprises on their own account. They make good factors and storekeepers for European firms and there is no reason why they should not utilize the funds, with which they secure themselves with these firms, as capital for trading on their own account. We have little use for people who at this time of day look at problems like the one under discussion and say that they are difficult and cannot be solved. Europeans are men, not supermen, and what they have done Africans can do; and if we on the Gold Coast will build ourselves into a great nation in course of time we must begin to face difficult problems and determine to surmount them even though they claim a considerable amount of our time and energy.

SUMMER SCHOOLS FOR NEGRO TEACHERS GREAT SUCCESS Army of Negro Teachers Embrace Opportunities to Make Themselves More Efficient and Useful in Their Work From the Norfolk Journal and Guide The vacation days are nearly all gone away. The teachers and pupils alike have had a long respite from the school room exactions, and they should be stronger and better fitted to take up the work where they left it off three months ago. We all have a vital pride in our schools, public and private, in the splendid army of children and youths whom their teachers guide to a higher conception of the duties of adulthood, of manhood and citizenship. However much we learn in the school days of those duties, we never get through learning after we leave school, as new, phases arise all of the time which the man of civile pride must front and master. An educated, intelligent citizenship is the highest and best asset any nation, any race, can have to promote and safeguard their liberties and to promote their industry and thrift. The earnestness with which the youth of the Afro-American people have gone after and mastered such education as was in their reach during the past fifty years, and the good uses they have and are putting it to, are the most hopeful signs possible of progressive growth in the future, based upon the foundation already made, of the most gratifying character. But it is the purpose of this article to emphasize the use to which most of our teachers have put their vacation days, or most of them. The summer schools for our teachers, in the South have been attended by an unusual, a growing, number of teachers and many of the summer schools of the North and West have had large numbers of our teachers in their courses. These teachers love their work and are taking advantage of the opportunities to improve themselves in the methods and technique of the teachers' work, which are undergoing constant changes for the better, and must be mastered as the teacher goes along from year to year, as the doctor and lawyer and preacher must keep abreast of all of the changes and improvements in their high work. In attending the summer schools and doing what they can by hard study to improve themselves in the methods and technique of their work, our teachers not only serve their own interests best, but those of the parents and of the tax-payers and those who manage the educational system. Our school teachers deserve well of the public, and when they show the devotion to their great work and the earnestness to better fit themselves for it, characteristic of them in a growing way, the public will always accord them the consideration which they deserve.

E. Jones Principal Speaker at Great Event ATLANTA, Ga., Oct. 27.—An important step in the progress of Gammon Theological Seminary, this city, was marked by the dedication last week of Thirkle Hall, beautiful and commodious administration and class room building just completed at a cost of $100,000. Three bishops of the Methodist Episcopal Church took part in the impressive ceremonies. Bishop E. G. Richardson of Atlanta presided, Bishop Robert E. Jones of New Orleans delivered the dedicatory address and Bishop and Mrs. Thirkle responded. Bishop Jones in his address, expressed the hope that the seminary might continue to be a center for the promotion of a vital and ethical interpretation of Christianity, as against chanceless tradition and inflexible dogma. He also made an impassioned plea that it might be always an active agency for the propagation of interracial good will. "In God's prune," he pleaded, "let us have less or hate and more of love, understanding and fellowship. Surely there is enough in Christianity to enable us all to put aside bitterness and rancor and stand together in mutual good will and helpfulness." The new building is three stories high, of brick and stone, and very impressive and beautiful in its architecture. FREE HOROSCOPE FREE Are You Happy and Contented? Is Your Home in Good Order?

Watters, president of the seminary, paid the construction company a high tribute for their faithful and efficient work and stated that the building would ever redound to the honor of the Negro people. Funds for the erection of the new, building were supplied in equal parts by the Methodist Centenary and from endowment income. Bishop and Mrs. Thirkield, for whom it is named, were sent to Atlanta to open the school in 1883, at which time there was but one member of the faculty and two students. Since then the school has sent 1,500 alumni and now enrolls annually more than a hundred men and women preparing for the ministry and other forms of Christian work. Among its distinguished alumni are Bishops Jones, Camphor and Beckett. After the dedication, the beautiful dining hall recently erected was formally named Bowen Hall in honor of Dr. J. W. E.

To the Editor of The Negro World: If I were asked what Negro movement today, most commands the respect of the world, I should say, "Garveyism." Coming on the scene, 'LOST VIGOR RESTORED IN 24 HOURS' "Glances Awakened in One Day" is the Amazing Statement of a Seventy- six-Year-Old Veteran. Lost vigor, deadened glands and nerves, and that weak, worn-out, depressed and half-affected feeling need not be overcome by thecovery of a well-known chemist. Now it is possible for those who feel "prematurely old" to become "rejuvenated" and regain their vitality in days' time with Mando Formula, is the amazing statement of one who has taken the treatment. This famous discovery is bringing thousands where everything else had failed. "I want to say that my 'lost vigor' was restored and 'glands renewed' in twenty-four hours," says D. B. Penkel. "But I don't feel a day over 40. Before I started taking the treatment I felt I was an old, 'worn-out' man, but now I am, enjoying a remarkable 'gland restoration' and am convinced my rejuvenation will be God's blessing rest on the discoverer of such a boon to humanity." This wonderful formula, prepared by one of the largest laboratories in the world and generally known as Mando, will work like magic in its rapidity on people of all ages and sexes. No matter how bad your condition, no matter what your age or occupation, no matter what you have tried, if you want to restore your 'glands' or force of youth, we are so confident Mando Formula will restore you that we offer to send a large $3.60 bottle for only $1.95 on 10 days' free trint.

"Garveyism" has achieved the impossible. It has shown the Negro race to what heights it might aspire. The "Garveyite" is not afraid of anything in this world, when he thinks he is right. The "Garveyite" is not afraid to bring out his own individuality, because he knows that a race strong in itself may make a weak imitation of some other race. "Garveyism" does not consider in anything so much the means as the end; and there lies the secret of its strength. The increased race-pride, self-reliance, and general aggressiveness of the Negro people of the world is directly traceable to the preachment of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Through "Garveyism" the Negro is learning the value of unity. The U. N. f. A. teaches its followers that circumstances are the nails upon which the weak hang their failures, and with which the strong build their successes. It also points out the fast that, lack of unity among the Negro people of the world is a most valuable asset in the hands of those who would eliminate them as decisive factors in the affairs of the world, and reduce them to beggars and supplicants at the throne of "white supremacy." Marcus Garvey and Garveyism is undoubtedly the outstanding landmark of independent Negro thought to date; in fact the word "Garveyism" and Negro liberty and political independence go hand-in-hand. It is only a question of time before the Negro people of the world, as a whole, will awake to the fact that the program of Garvey and the U. N. I. A. is the only logical solution of the so-called "Negro problem. VERNON SMITH. Marcus Garvey, the Man Marcus Garvey will always conquer his rivals as a race leader, because he has five distinct qualities that none of the others have. They have some, but not all. The five distinct qualities that Mr. Garvey possesses, as far as I can see, from his handling of the Univeral Negro Improvement Association, are: Honesty, Fluck, Sincerity, Determination and Ability. Dr. Du Bola has the ability from an educational standpoint, but lacks all others. William Pickens and Weldon Johnson are about the same. They have no constructive plans of their own; but seek to destroy those of others because they are not the fathers of them. The U. N. I. A. is uncontrollable; nothing can stop its onward rush. It has a spiritual' effect on all its followers. There is such a thing as vision; it is that power or sense that enables one to picture or imagine happenings several years ahead of time. The idea of an African government was visionized by Mr. Garvey, and now Nature's Way of Forcing the Hair to grow long, soft and healthy. A combination of dried and powdered seed.

I do not believe the contents of Mr. Garvey oppose him any much, because of their ignorance of the program of the movement, but because they do not want to admit defeat, through being ashamed of themselves. They think the best thing to do is to break up his program; prevent it from materializing. This will not rid and cannot happen as long as Marcus Garvey lives, and whenever he dies, we, his supporter, will carry on the work to a successful end. EDGAR S. HESLOP. Ancon, P. O., Canal Zone. Negro Sovereignty as a Solution of Our Troubles To the Editor of the Negro World: Your platform is the only logical solution to the troubles of the Negro race, l. e., "sovereignty." Old selfish leaders cannot see it. But, cheer up the new Negro is with you! Your friend in the Cause Africa BENJAMIN IVAN Sends Words of Cheer To the Editor of The Negro World: I am not an active member of the U. N. I. A., but knowing my national- ity, I think it my right to give thanks to most sensible and patriotic men, including the Hon. Marcus Garvey. Let him proceed with his alma as a man, though enemies are expected to disturb the brave. Like Moses, let him have his brother Aaron to cross the Red Sea once more. God bless Africa! Long live America! is my daily song. Redemption of Africa! Hylibuye I Africa! SYMON PIETER MALINGA. Johannesburg, South Africa. Nationhood Idea Growing In Favor Everywhere To the Editor on the Negro World: Marcus Garvey is a man of rare gifts of thought and speech. He heats forth truths and facts about the perilous circumstances of the Negro in America that transcend logical refutation of his critics. He expresses himself with such zeal and consistency that men are made to acknowledge facts which they have been wont to evade. Margaret Garvey has widened the visions and deepened the thoughts of the races and nations of the world relative to the Negro to such an extent that the so-called race problem and other kindred problems are being considered and discussed by persons who in the past have been reluctant to express themselves openly or for popular criticism. By his genius and efforts to unify the Negroes and reveal to them their compromising and degrading position in America, by his courage and fortitude in meeting and overcoming opposition, and by his foresightedness in detecting and exposing machinations of anemies of Negro development, he stands pre-eminently as a progressive leader. He appeals to all Negro people to awaken to the urgent necessity of repossessing Africa, to establish there a sovereignty of, for and by Negroes, in order that they may have life more abundant, liberty more secure, and happiness more genuine. As long as other races maintain sovereignties and excluded unfavored races from equal and just participation, the Negro has no sensible alternative than to try to regain dominance of Africa.

BROAD FREIGHT CORPORATION 400 Lafayette Rd., N.Y. 10001 Seventy-five representative men and women of Harlem attended the first lunchtime conference given yesterday by the Senior Seals Sale Auxiliary of the Harlem Tuberculosis Committee of the New York Tuberculosis Association at the LeTang Dining Room, 103 West 141st street. John E. Nafj, president of the Association of Trade and Commerce of Harlem, "spoke on "The Business of Buying Health," and urged those present to do all in their power to make Harlem a clean and healthy community by spreading health propaganda and giving their active support to health organizations. Harry L. Hopkins, director of the New York Tuberculosis Association, explained the direct relationship between the coming Christmas sales sale and the health of the community. He also pointed out that upon the sale of the little sales depends, to a large extent, the growth of the North Harlem Dental Clinic that is giving service to such children as cannot afford to go to private dentists. Dr. Joseph H. Jaffer, of Columbia University, consulting dentist to the clinic, briefly gave its history and asked the support of the residents of Harlem in helping to better the facilities of the present clinic. Dr. Henry O. Harding, chairman of the Harlem Tuberculosis Committee and a member of the board of directors of the New York Tuberculosis Association, and John C. Gebhardt, director of the Department of Social Welfare of the A. L. C. P., also addressed the conference. Mrs. Mabel Doyle Kegan, executive secretary of the Harlem Tuberculosis Committee, gave the history of the tuberculosis Christmas Seal and told an interested audience of its first use enemies of the U. N. L. A. It will show them that this great organization and its leaders are the sort that never flag. I am very anxious to become a member of the U. N. I. A., but we haven't any local here at present. There are quite a few folks around here who are highly in favor of your plans. I always after reading The Negro World, turn it over to someone else in and around Blythe to read. I would like for everybody, especially people of our race, to know what the U. N. I. A. is doing, and I hope they all may see it with a clear eye and sense. Now, as I am a cotton farmer and just about to clear my indebtedness, I will in the near future try to assist the Black Cross Navigation Company.

PATHFINDER In this country in 1897 by Miss Bindy D. Bessell in Winston, New York, who was strumming the melodies in tuberculosis shock of direct blows. In 1819 the American Red Cross and the National Tuberculosis Association entered into an arrangement, whereby the Christmas seals sales were conducted jointly by both organizations. The virtual partnership continued until 1819. In 1820 the first strictly tuberculosis Christmas seal, featuring the double-barred cross emblem alone, was issued by the National Tuberculosis Association. The Harlem Tuberculosis Committee needs the help of every man and woman in Harlem. Its funds are derived from the sale of Christmas soils in the city at large and are supplied by the New York Tuberculosis Association. Special contributions coming from Harlem may be designated for use in Harlem. NEGRO WORKERS ON STEAM RAILWAY LINES Total of 136,065 in All Branches of the Service in All Sections of the Country, 20,224 Being in the Pullman Service 2 ARE SUPERINTENDENTS WASHINGTON, D. C.—The Department of Labor has just released for publication the following very important and interesting information. Figures showing the number and classification of Negro employees of steam railway lines, as summarized by this office, conclusively show the entrance, advancement, and permanency of employment of Negro workers in one of the most important industries of the country. In all, there are 136,065 Negro rail hands, who are directly engaged in handling or safeguarding the transportation of persons or property over the lines of the various steam railway carriers of the United States. Negro railway employees are usually thought of as porters, and the 136,065 total contains train and Pullman porters in the number of 20,224, of whom 23 are colored women. The other classified railway occupations, however, show that rail transportation workers of the Negro race are in no wise confined to providing traveling comforts and performing domestic services for passengers. In fact, the summary shows that there are two Negro officials and superintendents of rail lines located in Ohio and Florida. Ninety-seven Negro Essentialism and the Negro Problem E. D. KENNARD, B.
