NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS FOR NEGROES EVERYWHERE
Fellow Men of the Negro Race, Greeting: We have now entered upon the life of the new year of 1925. It is customary that we make resolutions touching our conduct and behavior for each new year. It is well, therefore, that we at the very commencement of 1925 resolve what we shall do during the succeeding months that will tend not only to enhance our individual, material interest, but our racial common good.
Interested in All
The Universal Negro Improvement Association is interested in the whole congregation of the race. We feel that as a group, we must grow and develop together or stagnate and die together. There is no doubt that a race that exercises no effort to maintain its own interests sooner or later dies. It is the jeopardy of our racial destruction that forces the Universal Negro Improvement Association in promulgating a universal enthusiasm with the hope of stirring the life of each and every one to the greatest action for self preservation. With that in view we call upon each unit of the race at this time to make his and her resolution in keeping with the high purpose of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. We want more united action for 1925, more co-operative willingness to do and a greater amount of sympathy than we have shown in past years. We have suffered terribly from lack of internal sympathy in the past. In fact, instead of sympathizing with the efforts of ourselves toward progress, different groups and units of us constituted ourselves stumbling blocks to handicap the progress of everything started outside of ourselves for the good of our race. It is that spirit that caused us to have suffered so much in time and money in promoting the colonization plans. Today, the Universal Negro Improvement Association would have been able to re-

port not only to the race. But to the whole world, an unparalleled progress in colonial colonization work but for the wicked influence of other groups of the Negro race, who went out of their way to harass, handicap and thwart the program undertaken by us.
Enemies of the Race
There is no doubt about it that Charles Dunbar King, present President of Liberia, along with his cohorts in America, will go down as the greatest enemy the race in Africa has ever had and probably will ever know. Consciously or unconsciously, he has stood in the way of Negro progress and has written down his name as an enemy of the black race not only in Liberia, Africa, but in the entire world. Whatever could have led him to thwart the progress of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in executing its plan of helping to develop Liberia is yet known only to himself because up to now no honest reason can be adduced. This has been a great blow to the race, but with faith and confidence in ourselves we feel that the time is not far distant when Liberia will be able to save herself from the personal greed and graft of those who trampled her growth for personal gain and reasons.
Work Not Yet Begun
Yet, the work of the Universal Negro Improvement Association toward the development of the race is not yet begun. As announced, our effort toward the higher industrial, commercial and economic development of the race will not
be charged with the usual propaganda method, but we will during the year 1925 adopt those principles and policies that will best serve the object aimed at. We hope for a closer union of spirit between all the sections of the Negro race. We pray that the entire year 1925 will bring about such changes as will enable each and every one of us to breathe freer in the atmosphere of human changes that happen daily around us.
We ask that each member of the race during this year give whatsoever support possible to the new effort of the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company and help put over this proposition and to make it the success that we want it to be. Not only members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, but readers of The Negro World everywhere should do their part to promote this new enterprise. We want help and of the right kind. We need co-operation everywhere to assist us to put over the new program, and this should be the resolve of each and every one for the new year.
Thanking you in anticipation of this cooperation, with very best wishes, I have the honor to be.
Your obedient servant,
MARCUS-GARVEY.
President-General,
Universal Negro Improvement Association.
New York City, January 1, 1924.

anawer Is, of course, that the death

fore the war had a birth rate of about
45 mer thousand, ax compared with our
almerloan rate of 24.3 per thousand in

_ Great Britain, therefore, would not

of child life, Great’ Britain has been
doing almost ax weil ax we have, con-
xidering her lower standard of living.
The British death rate. in 1921 would

JINGOES AND JAPANESE
BARON-HAYASHI is the Japanese ambassador to England. It is an ambassador's duty to maintain smooth relations between his country and the country to which he is sent; also to deprecate reports of friction between his country and any other. Thus Baron Hayashi is speaking as an ambassador should when he says that the relations between Washington and Tokyo were never better than now.
That may be true of the two capitals; it is not true of the two countries and their people. Baron Hayashi censures "the jingo elements," but the jingoes did not make the bad feeling between the two populations, unless we should call men like Woodrow Wilson jingoes. One of the greatest insults in modern history was given at Versailles when Woodrow Wilson refused to recognize the Japanese as the equals of the white race. The Japanese are proud and sensitive. Naturally they were angry, just as the Americans would be if a European should say that we are not the equal of France or England.
The land trouble in California was not started by the jingo element but by American farmers who found Japanese competition too hot for them. The recent immigration exclusion bill was not put through by jingoes, but by responsible American senators. The jingoes cannot make trouble between nations unless the statesmen first give them cause. Why not blame the statesmen?
SAVE THE PENNIES AND THE DOLLARS WILL SAVE THEMSELVES
THIS is the time of year when your purse tells how you have been treating it. Some purses have been strained to the last degree, others are about as plump as they were before the holiday fever. Many folks will grieve for months to come about that expensive present they made for some one who is wondering why they didn't spend the money on a relative or friend who really needed it. If we all could be invisible when some of our friends pass remarks on presents, we would give to only our tried and true friends. It would even seem more Christian like to give to the poor and we would have happier hearts.
As we pass from the old year into the new it is well for the readers of The Negro World, especially members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to let the pennies make the dollars and not the dollars make the pennies.
Money values everywhere, with the individual, race and nation, constitute the developing potentiality which makes for industrialism so necessary to keep the wheels of modern civilization going. Sober-sided intelligence dictates to the most backward people that there are lean years and fat years. If the proper provisions are made during the fat years it will lessen the hardships of the lean years.
If we would only instill into the minds of our children the idea of saving their pennies and appreciating their value, the tots would want to see how much they can save. Some youngsters love to go on errands, so they may put the change or tip in their bank. It is a great encouragement to any young person for the older ones to add a reasonable sum once in a while and keep them interested in maintaining a bank account. The Christmas savings account is quite in order for all who have not opened one as get. Many people have the wrong conception of a Christmas savings account. For those who don't make many gifts at Christmas the money can be used for many things. To the average home-owner it can help pay taxes without drawing from the personal account. That is only one of the many ways. Unless we save the pennies first, the dollars will never multiply. Let us regain the extra penny as a very important factor and swell our bank accounts and purses by cultivating the saving virtue.
"UNCLE TOM'S CABIN" AND ITS AUTHOR AGAIN
AFTER many years "Uncle Toni's Cabin" is about to be revived in New York. We wonder how many of the present generation of Negroes have read the book on which that play is founded, and how many appreciate the great part if played in freeing the Negro from slavery.
For eighty years before that book was written humanitarians had tried to arouse the moral sentiment of the country against human slavery. The first American anti-slavery society, if our memory is right, was organized in Philadelphia, in 1771. From that time on the agitation persisted. The northern States discontinued slavery, and by the time the Revolutionary War ended practically all the slaves were in the South. The slavery question came up in the constitutional Convention of 1787, and nearly broke up the newly-organized union. The northern States insisted that slavery be abolished then and there; the southern States opposed them bitterly, and finally compromised, agreeing that after 1808 no
same year that Missouri and Maine were admitted to the union. Henry Clay's diplomacy effected the famous Missouri compromise, which staved off the Civil War. Than Daniel Webster, in his great speech of 1830, put off the day of reckoning still further. All this time the abolitionists had been publishing pamphlets and statistics to expose the horrible conditions of slavery.
But pamphlets and statistics, though convincing to the reason, cannot reach men's emotions. There was no concrete, personal figure of slavery for men's imaginations to seize upon. This figure at last appeared, in or about 1850, in the hero of a novel, "Uncle Tom's Cabin," Harriet Beecher Stowe.
This book roused the entire nation; it made converts by the hundred thousand. No longer was there any doubt that the North was ready to fight for human freedom. Abraham Lincoln called Mrs. Stowe the little woman who made the great war, and he was right.
To the Negro the influence of "Uncle Tom's Cabin" should be an incentive to him in artistic endeavor. For this there are two reasons. One is that art knows no color. A beautiful voice like that of Roland Hayes, a wonderful painting like H.O. Tanner's "The Annunciation," will have its way, making thousands of friends for the artist's race.
The second reason is that though our business and professional men are building a good foundation, the public does not know it, for it does not see them. But in a Roland Hayes holding three thousand people spellbound, they see and feel a concrete instance of a race making good.
BALDWINS AND BALDHEADS
ENGLISH punsters are making merry over the fact that the present cabinet, led by a man with the bald name of Baldwin, is composed largely of baldheaded men. Now that we think of it, there is a sort of fanciful connection between a bald head and conservatism. We always think of radicals as men with long hair. Dashing men generally have a shock of hair, while baldheaded men are neither noisy in speech nor precipitate in action. A bald head seems a guaranty of caution and solidity; one somehow feels that it will not take as many chances as long hair will.
Many men are sensitive about their hairless cranium, and nearly all men are apprehensive when they find their hair thinning out. But why should they worry? After all, so long as a man is not a cripple it does not matter much what he looks like. As for charm, some of the greatest heartbreakers have been bald men. The great fact about a man is his success or failure in life. The successful man is always handsome.
BARON VON GEDEON'S EXPEDITION
A ROMANTIC bit of news is that of Baron Aladar Von Gedeon, of Hungary, who is about to transport 5,000 of his tenants and followers to Western Canada, there to spend the rest of their days. He lost most of his estates during the great war and he and his people are tired of the old world. The Canadian government has given the baron its full approval.
This moving of 1,100 families at one stroke over a distance of 6,000 miles reminds one of the emigration of the Pilgrams from England to America. It will not bring the same hardships because the facilities of travel have enormously improved in the last three centuries and there will be no hostile tribesmen to fight after the settlers reach their destination.
The baron evidently is a man of action, not of words. He doesn't like a place, so he picks up and leaves it. Why is his example not followed by the thousands of Socialists and Communists in this country who are forever cursing the America, that gives them three square meals a day? Canada and Australia are large enough for all of them. All hail and good luck to the baron.
JULES JUSSERAND AND THE LIBERTY BELL
JULES JUSSERAND, for many years the French ambassador to the United States, is saying farewell to this country—farewell as an ambassador. When and if he returns to America he will come as a private citizen. At Philadelphia the other day he said, half humorously and half seriously: "I hope to return to see how you are following Franklin's admonitions—to see if the Liberty Bell still is ringing in the hearts of your citizens."
After all, it takes a European to size up the American people. Once an American boasted to Bernard Shaw that in this country the people dictate. Shaw agreed with him but dryly added that the people first asked the political bosses to tell them what to dictate. For about thirty years Monsieur Jusserand has represented France in America, and has doubledless sat at a thousand banquets and luncheons listening to orators who boasted of American liberty. But he has kept his eyes open, as Frenchmen usually do, and he has seen that boasted liberty violated, and stultified every day, all over the country. He has seen the Jim Crow cars, the disenfranchisement of Negro voters, the personal insults, the atrocious lynchings. He has seen an organization, the Ku Klux Klan, deriding religious liberty, one of the bulwarks of the Constitution. As an ambassador, he said nothing, which was very proper, but we will wager he saw everything. Now, upon his departure, he sums it up neatly by saying he wishes to see if the Liberty Bell will be still ringing in the American heart when he comes to us again. It may be ringing but it may be badly cracked.
THE DUCHESS AND THE SNOBS
THE newspaper wits had a lot of fun with the recent visit of the royal Russian grand duchess to this country. This lady is the wife of the Grand Duke Gyril, a member of the Romanoff family, who aspires to the throne from which the late Czar Nicholas was so suddenly jolted. The royal lady was invited to this country by the Monday Opera Club, a group of New York society women. Their president, Mrs. Henry Loomis, said she would use the grand duchess's reception as a means of determining "Who's Who" in New York society. Whoever was invited was "in" and whoever was not invited was "out."
The reception came off. The grand duchess sat on a chair and New York men and women contended for the honor of going on their knees and kissing her hand. The rest of America looked on in disgust. Even if the lady were the actual Czarina of Russia, or the former Czarina, the spectacle would have been offensive enough to American democracy. But this lady was not even a has-been. She merely aspires to the Russian throne, a throne which does not exist, and on this shadow of a shadow American society flung itself in abject homage.
Not for a moment, however, do we think the grand duchess is a fool. She knew well enough what she was being used for, and upon her departure she cryptically said, "Yes, I have leapt a great deal during my visit, more than you would think." Strange thoughts must have simmered in her mind as she watched the American snob, on their knees before her in a country whose supposed ideal is democracy. She was probably thinking, with Barnum, that there
MUSINGS ON THE PASSING OF THE OLD YEAR
It is a time-honored custom to turn over a new leaf with the incoming of the New Year. Most Christians celebrate the Christmas holidays with more or less of lavishment, abandon, trying to forget disagreeable incidents that marred the life of the Old Year, and not a few drink heavily and draw on the vital forces by late hours and much feasting. Somehow I sympathize with all phases of life and the ups and downs of all sorts of people. It may be because I have lived long and gone through most of the phases incident to life, and if I were of a desponding disposition I should regard life as a hardship, in which we find little to rejoice at and much to sorrow for, for there is always much darkness and but little sunshine in the lives of most people. It has been so, with me. But what is the use of repining? What is the use of magnifying the hardships and minimizing the real benefits of living? It is very easy to find fault with everything and to find little to praise. It depends upon the person. This I am sure of, we cannot better our condition of living by looking on the dark side of life and regarding lightly the few things that come to us that make for lasting benefit. It is what we call "the stiff upper lip" that takes us farthest in our own esteem and the esteem of our neighbors. There are some people who are sombre by nature, and who carry gloom wherever they go, and people do not like them, they are not popular, but they cannot help it; they are built that way. We should sympathize with them, as they would be different if they could. I do not imagine that they get any pleasure out of their gloom and in scattering it among others.
On the other hand, there are many people, and perhaps the larger part, who have the cheerful disposition and spread sunshine all over themselves, and those with whom they come in contact. They are the people who appear to get the most out of living. They never appear to be cast down, never to be discouraged, and they enthuse others with the sunshine of their lives. Let us all strive with the coming of the New Year to serve the high ends of existence to the best of our ability. It will be best for us and the race to so strive.
The Negro people need such examples of striving more than any other group of the citizenship, perhaps, because they have more obstacles to overcome not only in the matter of bread-winning but in most of the relations of citizenship. "Help ye one another," said Jesus to the brethren, and no better message was given to men. Service for others, when you can first help yourself, is one of the most satisfying things in living. Selfishness has its own reward, and it is seldom a satisfying one. Let us stand together and fight together against all obstacles for the things that are highest and best in living.

By DR. B. B. HERBEN of the New York Tuberculosis Association
Merry Christmas!
To the Editor and to the staff which has been handling this column for these many months, and to each and every one of the readers of The Negro World no matter where they may be, I send my heartiest greetings and wish you all a very Merry Christmas.
May your New Year, which shall dawn in the space of a few days, be prosperous. May your opportunities for service to your own souls, your kindred, and that greater body of "relatives," not so distant either, called humanity, increase with the days, and less prosperity lose its meaning, and service become dull, may your perception of the secret things which make for the happiness grow keener and brighter than the hidden or manifest stars of every night which passes over you in 1925.
Having prosperity, power for service
and the inner satisfaction of mind, you
can meet whatever else helps come to
you unrailed, and it shall leave you
unmatticed.
And that you may not only have
the Christmas and this New Year,
but many many happy years to come,
with a twinkle in my eye and a
shuttle, I shall drink (If I do, I
may this company drink just a moment).
TO YOUR HEALTH! MY HEALTH!
YOUR HEALTH!
I went to hear a lady Sunday night,
A lady who is foremost in the fight
To free us from the grasp of Serfdom's hand
And lead us forth into the promised land.
Where Freedom sits enthroned upon the hills
And waits to, bring us out of all the ills
Wherewith we are oppressed. O, happy thought;
And blest be he who first conceived and fought
To realize the dream and formed the plan
Whereby the Negro may become a man.
I sat enraptured as I heard her speak,
Condemn the mighty, and defend the weak;
Tell how we've suffered in this alien land,
Ruled by the white man with an iron hand;
Then heard her tell of Afric's sunny clime,
Of untold wealth in gold and diamond mine.
Of olive yards and vineyards, luscious fruits;
Plants medicinal and healing roots—
Ivory-bearing animals, and bright plumed birds—
She paints the picture in most glowing words
How you and I, and all might live in style
In grand and lordly castles on the Nile.
And as I sat there spellbound, lo, I dreamed;
A vision of the far-off future seemed
To pass before my gaze, and I could hear
The noise of conflict, and the cry of fear,
The sob of anguish and the moan of pain;
Whilst shot and shell in ceaseless torrents rain;
Shuddering, I sat there with abated breath
And fancied I could hear the groans of death.
A change came over the spirit of my dream—
Methought that they who would this land redeem
By war and blood but thwart the will of Him
Who died to rid the world of hate and sin
Lost in deep reverie and meditation.
There was vouchsafed to me a revelation
Of what should come to pass in course of time.
A consummation glorious and sublime,
Behold I saw the peoples of the earth
Stray from their native land that gave them birth
And mingling with the nations far and wide.
The migrator, analgamating tide.
Spread over all the world till men became
One kindred and one tongue, and then the reign
Of peace on earth began, and warfare ceased.
Intolerance and Prejudice released
Their grip upon the soul of sin and hailed
The bright millennial dawn, for love prevailed.
And every man had learned to grasp another
By the hand and recognize a brother.
EDITORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PRESS
Let's put our shoulder to the wheel and less up that we've all been guilty of being cheaters and not living up to the things we preach.—Omaha, New Era.
of faith which links men in one brotherhood. Why be satisfied with being mere men, when we can be Sons of God?—Kansas City Call.
"The world is asking the man and woman daily, 'What do you know?' or 'What can you do?' We cannot plead ignorance because of lack of opportunity. There may be those who know, but do not do, but you can't do unless you know—St. Louis Argus.
We earnestly hope for the day, and would gladly welcome its coming when it will not be necessary to hold special meetings to deal with our industrial problem as colored citizens, but to deal with them as ordinary citizens of our country. Such a day may be a long way ahead, but it should be our ultimate goal, and every step we take now in our deliberations and solutions should be designed to bring us nearer that desirable consummation. -Cleveland Call.
Men of all races and climes want justice, freedom, good, will, progress. A race or people who can excel In these things will always be respected, loved and exalted. It is this sort of supremacy and solidarity that will ultimately trumph. We know that "no race has a corner on these ideas. If, however, any group has ambitions for loyalty, let them commend themselves not by the color of their skin and untenable assumptions, but by character and moral leadership—Indianapolis Freeman.
Every thoughtful and self-respecting Negro should subscribe for and read a race newspaper. In our own mediums we get important facts about our people that cannot be obtained elsewhere. Then, too, our own race publications champion our causes and plead for a square deal—Onida Monitor.
The colored citizens have only to be thankful for the privilege and liberty granted to them as citizens. Our white newspapers are liberal, without price or cost, anything that is of interest among the colored people, if taken to their press, they will put it, in with pleasure. More patronage on the part of the colored people should be given to the daily newspapers, especially church notices, and other happenings. The race should not expect to get all from the other race and give nothing. We trust that as we enter into the New Year we will have different ideas and relationship one toward the other.—Charleston Messenger.
And after all, the world does think a lot of his breed. The man who pays is the bulwark of society. He is the balance wheel of civilization. He is the mainspring of commerce. Business blesses him and he has honor among men for all time. Baltimore Afro-American.
Now while we are congratulating ourselves, let us see the situation as it is. The pool are always with us. Next year their call will be as loud as this. Next year it will take every man, and every woman to put over the charity drive, and no one exempted. Charity is bigger than denomination, or profession, or craft, or neighborhood. It is the opportunity for us mean little sons of men to get up out of the dust of our petty business, to look up at the sun and swing out into the vast jet ge

to say it is not permanent and he has really built upon the sands. How much better you feel when you know that in making your monthly installments that you are saving your money which will pay some day not far distant generous returns, the security and consciousness of the fact that if misfortune does not over take you in a few years you will be a property owner and a tax payer gives one a wonderful feeling of satisfaction. Misfortune if it does overtake you it will just as quick when paying rent as it will buying a home and in the case of paying rent you have no come back, no redresses nothing you can call your own, while on the other hand you will always be able to realize something in buying a home you have all to gain and nothing to lose. We as Negroes own one out of every four homes owned in this country, let us keep the good work up. It is estimated that we started in 1866 with about 12,000 homes owned, it was found in 1880 when the first census of proprietorship of homes was taken that the Negroes had acquired ownership of 264,253 homes. The census of 1910 recorded that Negroes owned 660,650 homes. Negroes now own over six hundred thousand homes; that is one home out of every four which they have established in owned. This is a remarkable show and has a great significance. For the future of the race. It is also to see that any people starting with the handship of poverty and ignorance who can in such a few years become owners of one-fourth of all the homes which they have are making money along those lines which make high standards of education.
HOME OWNERSHIP IS SAFE AND GOOD INVESTMENT
From The Toledo Leader
To own your home should be the mark at which we should strive to reach, you are not only enriched in dollars and cents, but in security and freedom. It also gives you prestige and you are looked upon by the rest of the world just a few notches higher than the yellow who cannot see any further than his nose and continues to pay rent, buying something for some one else, something that he cannot fully enjoy. It is very simple and you cannot help but realize that if you are a renter at the end of ten years all you have left is a nice new package of rept reculpts, and who knows, when you will be asked to vacate or worse still to have your rent raised. How often has it occurred that folks have lived in houses for years and the property at length beomes uninhabitable and you are asked to look for other quarters, the house in the meantime is torn down; and a new structure replaces the old one, after it is completed and you require us to the price now for rent and to the possibility. When the rent is more than you can afford to pay, you cannot help but see that you have been the end that featured a condition that was conducive to your own culture. Now those of you who have not made that must begin looking around and purchase some piece that you may call yourself." The who is com-
JURY SYSTEM BREAKING DOWN IN BRITISH COLONIES
An article on "British Justice and Native Races," by Mr. John H. Harris, M.P., in the October number of the "Contemporary Review," reveals the fact that it is not only South African Juries who display color bias. Cases as bad as, if not worse than, those which have attracted notice here are entirely unknown in the British town colonies and dependencies.
A recent trial in the colony of Kenya a European named Jaspar Abraham, of Molo, was proved to have personally flogged a native servant for some trivial offense with much severity, until he was too tired to continue. He then induced three natives, one after another, to carry on the flogging. Klitos lapsed into unconsciousness, but even then his sufferings were not ended, for upon recovering his senses he was further ill-treated, and finally bound hand and foot with ropes. He died the following evening. The jury returned a verdict not of murder or manslaughter, but merely of "grievous hurt," and the judge sentenced the accused to two years' imprisonment. The case was brought to the notice of the Colonial Office, and the Duke of Devonshire, who was then in office, instead of returning an evasive, if not flippant, reply, after the fashion of our Own Minister of Justice (Mr. Teilman Roos), referred the records of the trial to his legal advisers. They expressed the opinion that "a verdict of anything less than manslaughter was quite irreconcilable with the facts. A verdict of manslaughter would, no doubt, have involved a more adequate punishment." And the Colonial Secretary himself, in dispatch to the Governor, wrote:
So long as this condition of affairs remains, the jury system can
I must, therefore, lay it down as a definite instruction that, in any future High Court cases in which a native or a non-native is charged with causing death or bodily hurt to a non-native or native respectively, a shorthand report of the trial must be furnished to me, in order that I may be in a better position to judge, with the assistance of my legal advisers, to what extent justice is being impartially administered between the two races.
By a coincidence, The Argus recently made a similar suggestion, viz., that verbatim shorthand reports should be taken of all trials of the type of the recent one at Standerton. If the Minister of Justice refuses to arrange for this to be done, then we hope that the matter will be taken in hand by some unofficial body, so that it may no longer be possible for the government to plead that it is unsafe to form an opinion from mere newspaper reports.
The Anglican Synod were well advised yesterday to pass the amendment of the Bishop of Pretoria, rather than the original motion by Father Rand, dealing with the administration of justice, in cases involving the possibility of color prejudice. Father Rand's motion, severely censuring the Department of Justice, showed a wrong conception of the legal system of the country. If inadequate sentences are sometimes passed in cases of violence against natives, it is not the Department of Justice, but the magistrates, judges and juries, and principally the juries, who are to blame. This is no new controversy, and it is perhaps its most discouraging feature that there should so often be cause for its revival.
Robinson was made in the Street discussion to the recent Sunderton even, upon which we have already commenced. The judge's summation was published in The Argus yesterday. While it might certainly have been more emphatic on certain points it can hardly be supported that there was multi-direction. The judge, however, is partly responsible for the light occasion, the circumstances calling for the heaviest penalty that the verdict of the jury would permit. Tuesday, June 11. The Argus published a report of the trial of a spontaneous on a charge capable homicide at the Harwittmouth Court. The convict had deceived two native women who were trespassing in a bag when a man pulled up to see them very closely at the women being detained and guessed that the suspicious man had be
The acceptable said he "we about to arrest" the native when the latter ran away. He fired and fatally wounded him. The defender was that he had fired only to frighten the boy, and on the strength of this totally inadequate excuse for his criminal recklessness, the jury found him not guilty. At Heddellberg four white men charged with culpable homicide by stoning a native to death. They said they threw stones at him to frighten him away; and were hortified to find that he was dead. They were sentenced to be detained till the rising of the court, thought it should be mentioned that they had been five months in custody. All these cases lend color to the suspicion that if white men had been the victim the verdicts and sentences would have been very different.
It is a lamentable indictment, but it is nevertheless true that the average white jury cannot be depended upon to meet out justice in cases of this sort, at any rate in some parts of the country. For this reason its is advisable that such cases should be tried by a judge without a jury. A judge besides being trained to reverence the law, which the jury can, if they choose, disregard altogether, has a greater sense of responsibility than a body of average citizens. A judge must inevitably be influenced by that great maxim, "Let justice be done through the heavens fall," and it is difficult to conceive that he would consciously allow his judgment to be deflected by color prejudice. Another remedy would be greater public interest, and to this end it is worth consideration whether societies interested in the welfare of the native could not arrange for an independent verbatim shorthand report to be taken of certain trials, so that they may be armed with a complete knowledge of everything that has taken place. If there were reason to conclude that there had been a miscarriage of justice they would then be in a position to frame an indictment, based on the actual evidence. The knowledge that such a record was in existence would be a valuable check on irresponsible juries and too lenient magistrates and judges, and would strengthen the hands of those who on grounds of public policy, if not from higher considerations, view with dismay, all cases which afford the faintest ground for suspicion that the courts of this country are liable to be awaived by color prejudice.

THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JANUARY 3, 1966
To the Editor of The Negro World:
Please allow me space in your valuable paper to bring to the eyes of the public a few facts that concern us as Negroes in general.
This is the time when all Negroes must be concerned about the building up of our African continent. We at present mean to lay down a very strong and lasting foundation under the able leadership of the Hon. Marvin Garvey, and in building up a nation we have to build industrially, materially, commercially, financially, spiritually and educationally.
When it comes to education, we have to be very careful so that the rising generation will not be forced to accept any old stuff and call it knowledge. This is the time when we must make our own history. There is never anything good that is published about Negroes except that to make him feel ashamed of himself and to let him wish that he was a white man. We have to be on the lookout for the kind of books that will fall in the hands of our Negro children.
Combine directly to the point, I mean to tell the whole world that no far an Negroes are concerned the Star Reader books sold by T. Nelson & Sons, Ltd., London, Paternoster Row, Edinburgh, and New York, are absolutely no good. These books are called "The Royal Star Reader" school series. For many years the Negro has been like an old pin cushion, and any part of Europe that the old rusty plus come from, they all stick themselves in the Negro. Any old worthless idea they try to put it into us, and we like feels, accept it as knowledge, not knowing that these folks only mean to grind their axes in our face. With our now realization today we do not mean to accept theory, but facts. Let white men tell us of the good that Negroes can do, even though they did not feel to tell us, or to publish all that we have gone in the European way, of 1914 to 1918. With that experience, we are no more cowards, nor have we forgotten all that we have seen over there, but that part of it we will tell you another time.
At present I am dealing with "The Royal Star Reader, Second Book." In this book, page 115, the reading lesson is "The Negro." This lesson has 13 paragraphs, and I shall number them in order:
(1). Here is a Negro. His home is chiefly in Africa. Africa is a large continent to the south of Europe. It is in the hottest part of the earth.
(2). Negro means "black"; the Negro has a very black skin. His lips are thick. His teeth are very white. His nose in broad and flat. His hair is short, crisp and woolly.
(3). The Negroes often wear only a cloth round their waist. They are very fond of fine colors, and they wear the brightest colored pieces of cloth they can get. They are also very fond of heads. All who can get them wear a string around their neck.
(4). Many Africans use shells for money, instead of coins, like ours. A great many are sent every year from England to the coast of Africa to be used in buying and selling.
(5). Much gold is found in Africa. It is mixed with the soil. After each shower of rain the streams carry down sand laden with gold. Gold dust is one of the chief things we get from Africa.
(6). Living in such a hot country the natives do not care to work much. Some travelers say that as a people they are very lazy, and that they like to rest in the shade.
(7). They carry everything on their heads. A story is told of a white man who once provided some Negroes with wheel-barrows. In which to convey stones for him. They put one stone into each barrow, and carry the stones and the barrows on their heads.
(8). Here are some African dwellings. How very different from the stone-and-lind houses of the white man. They are rude round huts just enough to shelter their owners from the heat of the sun.
(9). At one time large numbers of Negroes were stolen from their homes in Africa and taken to America. There they were forced to work as slaves on the cotton and sugar lands.
(10). Some years ago slavery was done away with in North America. There are at the present time several millions of freed slaves in that country.
(11). But in Africa Negroes hold one another in slavery! When war takes place between two tribes, the prisoners of war become the slaves of the tribe which has beaten them.
(13). During the last few years we have learned much about the home of the Negro from travelers who have braved great dangers and taken journeys of thousands of miles in Africa.
(14). They tell us that it is a beautiful continent with many large rivers and lakes. It is the home of many wild animals, among which are the largest lions and monkeys.
Now, this is the kind of lesson Negroes should not like to learn because there is nothing good in it. The greater part of it is filled with deployable lies so as to let Negro children think of themselves. And you must see then that this in the policy of the Englishman for us the Negro to poison himself. Even the Negro preacher today are telling us some of this rotten
RACE CONDITIONS IN BRITISH HONDURAS REVIEWED
The Statements Made in the Negro World of November 1, by Rev. Burchill, Challenged by Mr. Richardson — Negro Clergy Sidetracked—Attitude of Europeans
To the Editor of The Negro World:
I desire the following published in The Negro World:
"Contradictions of Rev. F. T. Burchill's untruthful statements about Bellice, British Honduras, which were written to Mr. Merrick of Wesley Guild, Cork, Ireland, and published in The Negro World of November 1, 1924.
His writing was dated February 15, 1924."
As a son of the soil of Eelice, British Honduras, but now residing in Puerto Castilla, Republic of Honduras, I now take the steps of controlling that highly appreciated gentleman (in the eyes of many) but in mine for his truthfulness), Mr. Burchell.
I am doing this not for the benefit of all the inhabitants of British Honduras, but for those and myself who would like Mr. Burchell to know that above all things (the being a so-called man of God), he should speak the truth, especially if he is compelled to supply his associates at home with the topics of his surroundings.
To be analyzed by those who are concerned or interested:
(1) Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.—Ex. xx:16.
(2) He that smiteth a man so that he die shall he surely put to death; and, if a man come presumptuously upon his neighbor to stay him with gulle, thou shalt take him from mine altar, that he may die.—Ex. xx:12-14.
(3) Thy tongue deceiveeth ruthenites like a sharp razor deceiveeth ruthenites, thou lovest evil more than good and dying rather than to speak righteousness. Thou lovest all desoutting words, O thou deceitful tongue. God shall likewise destroy thee forever. He shall take thee away and pluck thee out of thy dwelling place and root thee out of the land of the living; the righteous also shall see and fear and shall laugh at him.—Pel. 52:2-6.
"Foats from the Pen of the Writer"
Mr. Burchill stated that very little is known anywhere about this little strip of the empire, but I will venture to say it is only to him, and all others like himself (who have not studied geography any further than their nopoints), that very little is known to Mr. Burchill, who must have spent all his life in the mountains of his home until he was shipped to the Western Methodist Division of British Honduras.
He further stated that it is a low-lying district, which makes it unhealthy for Europeans. I want to know how long it takes a man to know an unhealthy place, and why he stays there for at least two years after knowing it.
I am conscious of the fact that British Honduras has such Europeans as English, Scottish, Irish, German, Italian, etc. some of whom, if anything should arise so as to cause each and every one to find his respective home would commit suicide rather than leave the swamps of British Honduras. Many of them went there as mere boys, some of whom were paupers, castaways, loafers, etc. Some could not even as much as change the suit they landed in, if they were not pitted by someone else. Today they are men who are reaping great harvest of riches from swampy British Honduras to enrich their so-called good countries (as Mr. Burchill is doing today).
There is certainly no water system, all on account of the greed of the Europeans, who are all raking and scraping for themselves, and nothing for the needs of the colony. I am quite certain that the natives of British Honduras, or any honest-minded forigner, do not find any difficulty in keeping things dry and free from mildew. I would like Mr. Burchill to study the cardinal points and see if the cold and atting winds are not from the north. He also needs to be reminded how to count; then see if there are not more roads than two in Bellize.
The week of October 4, 1922, the day Mr. Burchill landed in Belize, was about the thirty-ninth week of the year. How could he ascertain that that week was the hottest of the year? Speaking about whose members in Wesley Church I can not say much as I am a member of Saint Mary's Parish Church, of Belize, Anglican. This is what I want to know, what
stuff about England and call it religion. This true color of the British policy is now seen much in the West Indies. This policy is poisonously tempered with religion, and some people call it "diplomacy," and to think of British diplomacy, it in highly cultured hypocrisy. Next, time I shall write about this part of it. But what I want is that Negro teachers get interested over the kind of literature that gets into the hands of Negro children, for the benefit of the African race. Thanking you for your space.

about the wives of the Wesleyan ministers; are they door mats, pews, or what?
I think Mr. Burchill needs a medical examination as he may be insane. I would lay out my last dollar that there are sons of the soil of British Honduras who can speak an good English as Mr. Burchill; if not, then their fio is the only man on earth who speaks the English language correctly. If we cannot speak grammatically, then the examiners are frauds, and are not doing their duty, in such case they are receiving two salaries; viz: One salary from the government and gratitudes from favorites for their children. For every year there are at least three, to ten pupils passing their Cambridge or other examinations.
If, as he said, everybody was glad to see him and his, when they landed, then they should be more glad, seven times seven, to see them leave and to be forgotten. I would.
Many different newspapers, too numerous to mention, are being read in Belize, not saying anything about the other parts of British Honduras, weekly and monthly. Mr. Burchell should have made it clear to his friend that he can only afford to get one or two, and that is at long intervals, as he so intent on making his bank account grow rapidly.
If the custom officer asked him what he paid he was asked, then that guilty shows that the officer was a good guesser, for he had a mistrustful mind of him. I am only too sorry that it was impossible for him to search Mr. Burchell's heart.
Many causes are given by ministers which cause some of the young people to sow their wild oats. One of such cases is known among some of Wesleyan's older members in Belize.
Part of Mr. W. H. Harvey's actions, in regard to instilling society's stewardship and sidemen might have been to lesson the work of the ministers, so many are sometimes lazy, as any other professional man might find in his profession, who still receive their big salaries, while some of the supporters of the church might have to starve as to meet their church dues. For if overdue Mr. Minister will get in the pulpit and call to the congregation to pay their dues, the congregation makes sacrifices to make Mr. Minister's bank account grow. The so-called sacrifices to work and sidemen have to be part of Mr. Minister's work and receive no salaries. "Whenever still not received you, when you go out of that," Mr. Shake off the dust from your foot for a testimony against them."—St. Luke, ix. 3.
If all the Battles Horderdrums were of my disposition we would not have Mr. Burchell among us. With all the shaking of his feet the dust will not fall, for he is one of them who will be crying, "Lord Lord!" and will not be heard if he does not mend his ways.
Mr. Burchill should not talk of good homes as a rare thing in Belize before he goes around and accertains what he wants to write about. There are more drunkard's dens (which are as humes to many) where he came from than there are bad homes in the whole area of British Honduras, not in Belize alone. Whatever bad homes there are in British Honduras were made so by foreigners, especially Europeans. If the girls from 10 to 18 years are drunkards (I know this statement to be false) who are to be blamed for it? Is it not the Europeans who are the guilers of British Honduras? There is an old long-time talk about building an industrial school in British Honduras. Why does not Mr. Burchill and his associates help the government to put it through? Then, and only then, would Mr. Burchill be worth anything to the colony. For then he would be helping the fallen and needy. His work at the high school could be gone through by others, whether they be Methodist or not, as was being done before he landed in Belize.
During the great European war a certain Wesleyan minister, instead of being indoors taking a rest, used to be seen many nights leaving a certain private residence, between the hours of 10 P. M. and 13 P. M. He had to pass through the drill hall yard. He was seen so often that he was put in the local papers. War he setting a good example to the fallen?
Since we are so much without God and hope, how is it that eight houses of worship (2 Anglicans, 2 Methodists, 1 Roman Catholic, 1 Baptist, 1 Presbyterian and 1 Salvationist) are filled on Sundays, especially in the evening?
If we are considered by Mr. Burchell to be damned into the world, rather than being born, then he must have come into the world as "Melchisedec, without father, without mother, without descent." Heb. v. 11. 2. As that is not possible, then I think that the old oak tree, which brought him forth, is still standing where he came from.
It is clear to be seen by Mr. Burchell's

statement of us being articulate animals with atrophied brains, that he is only a minister of criticism rather than one of Christianity. Hb needs to be brought into subjection, firstly, to his conscience, and, secondly, to Christ, more than the people of Belize. He, not any other man on earth, does not owe us Christ. Christ is for all of us who will follow Him, and not for any particular nation. Cigliss's birth was such as to be a glory to the Israelites and a light to lighten the Gondelite. Mr. Burghill is a Gentile, as we are. So how could he owe us Christ? If Mr. Burghill was taught that he had Christ, so as to give or sell to anyone, then he can come to me for a free teaching as to the right road to find Christ:
"Can two walk together except they he agreed."
Mr. Burchill asked his friend to help to show us the better way. How he learned it was yet? If so, why should he stray from it? Is it his salary that is causing him to lose his head? Is he a member of the "Dyneigh Trinity"? Why is he so certain that, even after his first prayed for us (the entire world) to be one, we will never be? Who is Mr. Burchill but itself and bone, born if sin, as myself? For in sin both our mothers conceived us. (kindly read Psalm 51 from start to finish and consider if Mr. Burchill ever saw his pain before). He should ask the good lead to show us the healing, not excluding himself the better way.
He speaks of racial antagonism and color prejudice. Where is the starting point of its existence? He is a minister and is trying to keep the black and white apart by keeping school for the black at a certain time and for the white at another time (both teachings are daily).
Mr. Burchill, like all others of his type, has no expectation of keeping a colored minister in Belfast. Whenever there are colored ministers around they are sent to come out-district post, Rev. J. N. Angell is the only colored minister in Belfast who has not been sent into an out-district as yet. There is a reason, but who can tell what will happen in the future? Rev. H. McField, another colored minister, was stationed at intervals in Belfast some time ago. Other colored ministers (whether Westean or not) are now roaming in out-districts. Why?
If we were not as forliving as we are, make our British West Indian brothers, who stand for nothing, Mr. Burchill would have either caught the boat leaving Belfast, after his exposure, or after a threshing. There might be a reason why Mr. Burchill could not stay in the Island of Kootan, Republic of Honduras.
I would like all who are interested in this undertaking to be in the knowledge that I am sending a copy of this publication to Mr. Burchill and one to Mr. Merrick.
My grief towards him is great when I think of two poems. One is by one of our local poets, Mr. J. S. Martinez, entitled "British Honduran," and the other by Sir Walter Scott, entitled "Love of Country."
In conclusion, I will pray that Mr. Burchill and all like himself may find the same Christ whom they are us.
I am.

THE NEWS AND VIEWS OF U.N.I.A. DIVISIONS
The Cincinnati Division No. 146 of the Universal Negro Improvement Association has been hit hard during the last four months, for we have had numerous deaths in the division. Three very sad deaths occurred a few weeks ago. On Thursday, December 4, Mrs. Lula, Whitlow, captain of the motor corps, was taken to the general hospital at 3.00 a.m. at 12.05 p.m. m. the same day, she was a corpse. On Saturday, December 6, Mr. Harry Dickson and Mrs. Eunice Dickson, his wife, were burned to death and their dwelling house destroyed by fire. On Monday, December 8, the funeral service of Mrs. Whitlow was conducted at Liberty Hall at 12.05 p.m. and on Wednesday at 1.00 p.m. a double funeral ceremony was conducted for Mr. Dickson and his wife. It was one of the most pathetic incidents that had ever occurred in the history of Cincinnati in years. Mr. Dickson and his wife were well thought of by some of the wealthiest white people in Cincinnati. He had worked as butter among these families for years and was well known for his capability and sincere service. Many of them attended the services and took the death of these two members as much to heart as those of the race. Numbers of beautiful floral pieces came from all parts of Cincinnati, showing the high esteem in which Mr. and Mrs. Dickson had been held by both white and black, high and low.
The saddest part about the whole thing was the fact that the bodies being so badly burned, the casket could not be opened for the members and friends to take a last view of the remains. Mr. Dickson was a native of the southland, coming from there some ten or twelve years ago. The bodies being in such a condition as they were, it was impossible to hold them over until the children could get here.
During the past four months, the Cincinnati division has lost eleven members, all of them financial. We have been able to pay every death claim to date, the amount for each death being $75.
I can say that the Cincinnati division is one of the most loyal divisions in the Universal Negro Improvement Association throughout the world. The members of the Cincinnati division have been loyal and staunch supporters in the purchasing of the S. S. Bogker T. Washington, the first ship owned and controlled by the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company, which will sell from New York at 135th street pler, January 11, 1825, for the West Indies, Haiti, South and Central America. The members of the Cincinnati division are contemplating sending their president, Sir William Ware, to board this ship which sells on the above mentioned date. With all the propaganda against us; with enemies in the organization and out of it too, the members of the Cincinnati division are steadfastly and loyally holding up the principles of the organization; they have taken on fresh courage and expect to continue to the end.
MRS. ELLENETTE HAMILTON.
General Secretary
The Antilla Division of the U. N. I. A. held a grand picnic on the 10th of October which was well attended and a great success in spite of the inclement weather. The members and friends of the Antilla division extend thanks to all who attended and helped to make this affair a success. On the 19th of October this division had as a visitor the Hon. R. H. Bachelor, organizer of the. Cuban division and Brigadier-General of the Legions. The meeting was called to order in Liberty Hall at 8:15 p. m. Mr. W. H. Mill, president, in the chair. The opening ode, "From Greenland's, Icy Mountains," was sung, followed by the reading of the preamble and the singing of the Ethiopian National Athem.
The following program was rendered: Address by Mr. W. H. Milla, president, who explained the aims, and objects of the U. N. J. A. The last speaker of the evening was Mr. R. H. Bachelor, who was introduced to the audience by the president. He chose as the subject of his address "Loyalty." In his discourse he said Negroog had been greatly handicapped because of disorganization. He urged all members and friends to stick to the principles of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Mr. Bachelor promised to return to this division at some other time. The meeting was brought to a close in the usual manner.
On Sunday evening December 7, 1924, we had a visitor in our midst in the person of Prof. A. A. Bolten, a member of the Guantanamo Division No. 164. Prof. Bolten is reputed to be a physician. We are proud to have him in our midst, not only on account of his professional but also for his oratorical ability. He is a speaker who can always arouse enthusiasm among the members and friends visiting our Liberty Hall. His address for the evening was delivered partly in Spanish and partly in English. He was asked by the members and friends to deliver another address on the following Monday evening, to which he consented.
The meeting was opened with the singing of the ode, "From Greenland's Ice Mountains," followed by prayer Hymn No. 149 from the ritual was sung followed by an introductory address by one of the members, Prof. Bolten was next presented. The subject of his address was "Perseverance and Courage." In the course of his address, he said, perseverance, with courage was the only means through which we can attain that for which we are striving. He held the attention of the audience from start to finish. He urged the members and friends to stick to the principles of the U. N. I. A. and assist in putting over the program of the association. The next address of the evening was delivered by Mr. M. Fraser, who made an appeal to the members and friends to support this grand and noble cause. The last speaker of the evening was Mr. W. O. Small. Before the meeting was brought to a close the chairman thanked those who helped to make the evening a success. The meeting was brought to a close with the singing of the Ethiopian National Anthem.
The meeting on Monday the 5th was well attended. It opened in the usual manner with the singing of the ode "From Greenland's Iry Mountains," followed by prayer.
The following program was rendered: Address, by the chairman; address, in Spanish by Prof. Bolten; solo, by Mrs. E. Murray; solo, by Mise Stewart; duet, by Messrs. Levy and Fraser; address, in English by Prof. Bolten; solo, by Mrs. Malcolm; reading, "The Pathfinder," by Mr. M. Fraser; recitation, by Miss E. Thompson; solo, by Miss Turner; closing address, by chairman. The meeting was brought to a close with the singing of the Ethiopian National Anthem.
On Sunday, November 23rd, the London Division of the U. N. I. A. and the A. C. L. held a very successful mass meeting at the Public Hall, Canning Town. The meeting was well attended and the president, Bro. F. Bishop, presided. Other officers present were Sec. Bro. A. Timothy and Assistant Secretary Bro. R. Hart, who acted as chaplain.
The President called the meeting to order at 7:30 p. m. and opened it in the usual manner with the singing of the opening ode, "From Greenland's Ice Mountains," followed by prayer. The preamble was read by Sec. Bro. A. Timothy, after which the aims and objects of the U. N. I. A. were read by the President, who also read the front page of The Negro World to the audience.
The following program was rendered: Address, by Ero. P. N. D. La Haye, who chose as his subject "Stop Bickering." He urged the members and friends to stick to the principles of the U. N. I. A.; mandolin sola "Alas, Those Bells Sweetly Chime," by Mr. A. Timothy; address, by Mrs. Norris, who made an appeal to members and friends to give their beat to the great cause (Mrs. Norris is an English lady in sympathy with the U. N. I. A.). Address, by Mr. J. Clarke, a member of the parent body of New York; mandolin sola "The Death of a Patriot," by Mr. A. Timothy; address, entitled "Obligation," by the President, Bro. F. Bishop; address, by Bro. H. R. Hart, in which he appealed to the audience to subscribe to our fund for the renting of a Liberty Hall and recreation center, where mass meetings could be held weekly, and which is very essential to the progress of the division; hymn, "O. Africa, Awaken," by the audience. The president, Mr. P. Bishop, offered a vote of thanks to officers, members and friends for their co-operation in this great undertaking, asking them to bring along their friends to the next meeting, to be held on December 14. This resolution was brought to a close by the singing of the Ethiopian National Anthem.

The paramount chief having paid the fine left for Dunkwa, a station on the railway line, with the view of traveling to Sekondi, the seat of the Provincial Judge, to bring up an action for criminal assault against Major Cumine, but on the persuasion of his councillors he instructed his solicitor at Sekondi to report: the affair in writing to the Commissioner of the Western Province, Major Cumine's superior officer, with the request that it be reported to the Governor at Accra. The Provincial Commissioner, however, did not appear to have informed the Governor of the incident, but proceeded to Dunkwa to induce the chief to make up with Major Cumine. In the end, after an inquiry by the Provincial Commissioner, Major Cumine, the District Commissioner, was found to have misbehaved himself and he had to slaughter a sheep and offer drinks amounting to £8. In propagation of his offense. The Provincial Commissioner did not take any step as to the refund of the fine of £15, nor did he appear to have considered it as his duty to see that suitable amends were made by Major Cumine's orderly for the assaults committed by the latter on the sub-Chief and the medicine woman; and the Chief dissatisfied with the result of the Provincial Commissioner's inquiry addressed a letter on the matter to the Governor at Accra and another to the Aborigines Society.
The offense of Major Cumine is an extreme one, and we have no record of any British officer having used his hands on a Chief of this country; but if such a thing had happened elsewhere than at Sewph we do not know but that the consequence would have been disastrous, for to hit a person sitting on a stool in this country, is not only regarded as a very serious affront to the stool holder personally, but as an outrage against the State of which he is the head. Major Cumine must, therefore, regard himself as a very lucky man that he committed the offense at Sefwhl Bokwal and not elsewhere.
Although the nature of the above case makes it an exceptional one, it is by no means a unique example of the affront to native chiefs as often offered by some of the officers who are serving in the Political Department. The Provincial and District Commissioners pretend not to recognise the status of the paramount Chiefs and the subordinate Chiefs in relation to his Majesty's Government, and their habit of going about the country ordering native rulers to remove their headgear and to lower their clothes in their presence is meeting with growing resentment on the part of the Chiefs and their people, and unless this mad habit is checked it will cause serious trouble some day.
What we particularly desire to draw attention to, is the necessity for the Colonial Office to regulate the relations that should exist between the native chiefs and the local autocrats, from the Governor downwards, so as
On Sunday after noon, December 21, 1924, a grand mass meeting was held at Liberty Hall, 6311 Frankstown avenue. East Liberty, by the East Liberty division of the U. N. J. A. No. 134. The meeting was called to order by the president, Mr. M. C. Carter. The opening ode, "From Greenland's Ice Mountains," was sung, followed by prayer by Mr. James Tyner. The following program was rendered: Address by the Hon. Edward Alle of Pittsburgh, Pa. Division No. 61. "The U. N. J. A. band." address by Mr. Alfred Hill, bandmaster of the U. N. I. A. band. We had as a distinguished visitor Mr. Jacob L. Phillips, president of the Modern State Bank of U. Liberty; Mr. D. D. Mosby, cashier; Mr. Thomas Richardson, director, and Mr. Robert E. Vaughn, also connected with the Mod-
Bank. The following program was rendered: Mr. D. B. Dosey delivered a very splendid address, "Thelift and Economy," address by Mr. Frank May of East Liberty division. We must also make special mention of the Easy Liberty band, which is progressing by leaps and bounds, and in a very short while we expect to have a band second to none.
A collection was taken up, after which the meeting was brought to a close with the slinging of the Ethiopian National Anthem to the accompaniment of the band. Benediction was pronounced by the chaplain, Rev. J. E. Livingston.
C. A. TAYLOR, Reporter.
NEW BEDFORD, MASS.
On Friday and Sunday, December 12 and 14, the New Bedford Division of the U. N. L. A. held, a grand mass meeting, both of which were well attended, and opened by the president, Mr. A. Robinson. The ode, "From Greenland's Ice Mountain," was sung, followed by prayer.
The following program was rendered. Address, by Mrs. Heidley, lady president of the Boston Division, solo. by Miss Ramsey, accompanied by Miss Grocie, address, by Mr. E. G. Williams, secretary to Lady Vinton Davis. Lady Davis was the principal speaker on both occasions. She delivered a very interesting address, which was greatly appreciated by the audience. The collection taken up amounted to $37.33.
The meeting was brought to a close with the singing of the Ethiopian National Anthem.
to inform the conduct of the local officials in their dealings with the native authorities. And the Secretary of State can conveniently do this by calling for and examining the treaties entered into between the government of her late Gracious Majesty Queen Victoria and the Chiefs at the time this country came under British protection. We have no doubt that the Colonial Minister will discover from a study of these old documents that the Gold Coast holds a unique position in the British Empire, and that the Chiefs by their own volition brought themselves and people under British protection without in any way parting with their ancient rights and privileges, and that they are entitled to be accorded with the same deference that is paid to the ruling Chiefs of India. It may be that our rulers here cannot measure their greatness by the

affluence of the Indian Princess, but we are not aware that the respect due to heads of State is adjudged in this way, otherwise it is difficulty to see how the heads of small European States like Serbia and Montenegro can claim the same courtesy that is due to the heads of greater countries like Britain and France. What we say is that by virtue of their status as defined by existing treaties, the Chiefs as heads of States should be accorded with the same respect that is due to the Governor as the representative of the Crown here, and it should not be possible for mere Provincial and District Commissioners to go about the country insulting and assaulting our rulers in the way demonstrated above. As it is well nigh hopeless to expect the local government to do what is right and reasonable in such matters, we appeal to the Secretary of State to cause regulations to be issued on the subject to the end that peace and harmony may prevail in the country to the promotion of British African interests.
The prevailing opinion that everything white is good and everything black is evil must be destroyed if the race is to advance. All of the "Uncle Tom" Negroes are not the poor, illiterate kind, but many an "Uncle Tom" occupies high positions in the community life. An unwelling of these will shock the community. — California Voice.

WHY SOME WIVES FAIL
TO HOLD-THEIR HUSBANDS
By CYNTHIA GREY
in the New York "Bulletin"
Hardly anyone but me knows that Catharine will be 36 her next birthday. You'll guess her age at about 32. She as slim as a silver birch tree and there isn't a line in her face. I never have seen a "Follies" girl who is any prettier than Catharine when she's dressed for a party. And her clothes are wonderful.
So I was not prepared for the shock I had about a month ago when I stopped in at her house on my way downtown. George, her husband, was just leaving. He looked gloomier than usual.
Her door was open and I went in. Catharine was sitting up in her lace-trimmed bed, having her coffee. But I hardly recognized her.
Her head was tied up in a white cloth, there was a rubber wrap under her chin, and her face and neck were smeared with a sort of gray plaster. She was wearing a large pair of white cotton gloves.
"My word, what's happened to you?" I asked. "Automobile wreck?" "Nothing," she said. "But don't make me laugh or the mud will crack. Sit down and have some coffee, and I'll tell you about it."
"Mud?" I repeated. "Mud?"
"Don't pretend you haven't heard of a mud-pack for the face." Catharine
said. "You know it's supposed to remove lines and wrinkles. The rubber strap under my chin is only a strap I wear at night to keep from having a double chin, and the cloth tled around my head is just to hold the water-wave combs in."
"Why the gloves?" I asked. I simply had to know.
"Just to keep the cold cream on my hands from rolling the coverlet." Catharine explained.
"I went over to the dressing table. Beside the cream was a smaller box labeled "Nose Cream" and a bottle of "Muscle Oil." There was a large white tray filled with rouge and lipstick and long eyebrow pencils. There were five bottles of French perfume, and a great jar of hair pomade.
"What does Jack think of all this?" I couldn't help saying.
"Oh, he's used to it now." Catharine said lightly. "When we were first married he couldn't bear to see me with cold cream on my face even. But I just told him I was going to keep young."
"How can he kiss you goodbye through that mud pack?" I went on. "Oh, he doesn't any more, anyway. I hardly see him in the morning. You know yourself how matter-of-fact married people are." But I know that not all of them are matter-of-fact. And that if they are, something's wrong. And it's easy to see that Catharines has failed as a wife because she doesn't care how she looks when her husband's around as long as the rest of the world thinks she's beautiful and young.

Lettre ouverte a son excellence Mr. King, President de la République de Libéria
Tout d'abord, laissez-moi vous dire que je suis un noir d'extraction extrangère, ayant pris naissance sous le drapeau anglais. Après avoir beaucoup voyagé de par le monde, je suis enfin venu me fixer aux Etats-Unis d'Amerique que je considere, comine un des plus grands pays que Dieu ait donné à l'homme. Les dirigeants de ce pays ont accordé à toutes les races et tribus de la terre les facilités voulues pour se lancer dans les entreprises.
Nous, les Noirs fumes emménents hors de notre pays, pour la plupart, par les Anglais. Nous fumes entasses dans des négriers, emportés loin des rives d'l'Afrique, et vendus dans diverses parties de l'Occident comme esclaves. Durant plus de deux-cent-cinquante ans le blanc s'est evertue à faire de un peuple industriel. A présent que nous sommes a même de construire des villes pareilles à celles des Etats-Unis, vous avez fermé vos portes contre nous.
Voulez-vous bien vous rappeler la lutte que Jésus eût à soutenir contre les puissances de ce monde, et commençait loragil ont fini de remplir sa mission et qu'il fut sur le point de soummer vers son Père, il dit : "Portes, dirvez vos vies ; Elevez vos vies, Portes daterelles, et le Roi de Glorie centrale." Loragil fut enterré au dos angus lui dit "Seignoir, les Portes sont restes curvantes", Jésus lui dit : "Les Portes ne serpent que jésus reformer que tous les deux de Dion ne soient entrés. A quiquel que vous des installés en lautre vous avons reféré les belles de l'Afiquen contre, vous quittiez les puissances vous, il en aime pour, les Portes du Ciel vous bourger!"

let filles de l'Afrique combattre contre le roj Prempeh de Sierra Leone? Vous souvient-il encore de cette bataille qu'on designa sous le vocable de "bataille d'Ashanii"? Ce même roi avait dit aux Anglais: "Vous vous êtes servis des fils mémés du sol pour m'enlever mon territoire; mais un jour ils le rachteront pour eux-memes." Ce sont ces memes Anglais qui vous disent aujourd'hui qu'il ne faut pas permettre aux Garveviens d'entrer en Afrique, parce-qu'ils sont des gens dangerux.
Monsieur, j'ose une nouvelle fois vous adresser une prière: Ne nous interdissez-pas l'accès de vos murs, car si vous le faites il se pourra que ce soit contre les enfants de Dieu que vous refererez vos portails. Dans l'espoir que ces quelques lignes éveilleron dans votre coeur et dans ceux des membres de votre Cabinet des sentiments de bienveillance et de sympathie, j'ose me souscrire.

THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JANUARY 2, 1965
L'Afrique a eu son incarnation féminine du patriotisme exalté. Ce fut yers la fin du septième siècle qu'elle parut et se mit à la tête de son peuple pour repousser l'invasion des Arabes. L'histoire a pas conservé le nom de cette heroine africaine. On l'appelait populairement La Kahena à cause de ses visions et inspirations prophetiques. Ce mot signifie Prophetesse ou Sorcière.
"On croit qu'elle descendait de la famille des Damin, et qu'elle cait la fille de Tabeta, fils d'Enfale. Son titre de Dahiah lui venait de son rang comme souveraine des Djoraquah, une tribu berbere de la chaine des Aures qui s'était convertie au Judaisme.
Il a été impossible, jusqu'ici de retracer les origines, de la grande famille Berbère. Jeurs origines se perd dans la nuit des temps. On sait seulement qu'ils sont les plus ancienement connus des peuples du Nord-Afrique et qu'ils descendent des Lybiens. Beaucoup de berberes sont des blonds aux yeux bleus. On retrouve leurs profil dans la sculpture primitive de l'Egypte. L'influence berbère sur la population punique de Carthage se reconnaît à la mode lybienne d'inhumer les morts; et dans le nom de Tanit, la divinité suprême des Carthaginois. Les etymologistes se forcement de trouver un rapport entre le nom de cette divinité et les vocables sacres employes naugure dans le rite d'un tule africain préhistorique. Le conte Byron Khun de Drotok qui sous les auspices des Services des Autiquités du Government français, va inaugurer des fouilles à El Djem, se propose de vérifier la théorie qu'il nourrit à savoir que les Berbères, par leurs ancêtres lybiens, descendent des Atlantides qui survecurent à la submersion de leur ile et qui sitablent sur le plateau de Hoggar près le Salara.
A la destruction de Carthage, les Berbères adoptèrent superficiellement le paganisme romain; et, à la chute de Rome toutes les formes de religion qui y furent introduites par la longue théorie de conquerants qui se succéderent sur leur sol. Maïn, en réalité, ils maintient intactes leurs croyances et leurs pratiques religieuses. Au cours des luttes qui bouleversèrent tout le Nord-Afrique, ils contentent de rester spectateurs impassibles des conflits qui se livraient. De temps en temps, ils durent reculer leurs frontières et se refugier de plus en plus profondement dans leurs mornes sur les confins du desert. A l'issue des longues et cruelles guerres d'Islam, les Arabes vanquirent les Byzantines et penetrerent dans l'Afrique du Nord
Cette irruption, fut pour les Berbères le signal d'une insurrection Ils se préparrent à la resistance sous la conduite de Kocella, roi de la tribu des Adorebas. En 682, Kocella reconquit l'independence berbère par le défait dOkba. Vaincu à son tour, le peule était sans chef, lorsqu'on vit surgir La Kahena qui, se disant envoyée par les dieux mena son peule au combat. Dans une bataille, au pied des Monts Aures, elle repoussa l'attaque de Hassan, gouverneur d'Egypte, et refoule les Arabes jusqu'a Gabés. Les forces ennies étaient au nombre de 40,000; celles des Berbères de 12,000. Quatre-vingts des aides-de-camps de Hassan turent faits prisonners. A l'exception d'un seul, La Kahena les renvoya tous sans exiger de rancon. Le prisonnier qu'elle garda était le jeune Kabled, de la tribu des Cais. Elle l'adopta selon l'ancien cérémonial berbère et lui dit; "Jamais je n'ai vu d'adolescent aussi beau que-vous. Je vous adopte afin que vous soyez mon fils et le frère de mes enfants".
Persuadée que les Arabes ne combattaient que par soif de pillage, et débutin, elle décréta la destruction de toute la portion du pays compris entre El Djem et Sfax.
Cette politique fanatique fut exécutée avec un rôle systématique. Les cidés furent raisés, les citernes et les canaux d'irrigation furent detritus, les forêts et les champs d'oliviers ravagés pour les soustraire à la convivie de l'enemien. Durant cinq ans le programme de dédilation se poursuivit. A la fin La Kahena se trouva anilégée dans le Colisée de El Djem; main a aucun moment de cette longue attaque son armée ne manquait de provisions alimentaires, olivères à des sources mystérieuses. Cont au point que, remarquant à un moment d'attaque que les assemblées d'invent equivulentes minima par la faim, elle orbitaque à ses solsides de jour joint des pauvres frises.
La tradition rapporte qu'elle avait fait crucé sur un pasage souterrain long du vingtième et suffisamment large pour permettre la passage de trois cavaliers de front. Ce surrender faimé communiquer la force, avec Sollacin sur mer. Cfaut
oe souhaiterent que l'explorateur Protokok va chercher à découvrir. La Khalma fut vainque en definitive. Hassan ayant recu des renforcements, la reine comprit que sont était perdue. La veille de la dernière bataille elle imposa la mission à ses files et les envoya, ainsi que Khaled, au camp de Hassan. Puis elle nena ses troupes se battre à Mitoasson. Elle fut vainque et tuée par les forces ennemies conduites par Khaled.
Ainsi perit l'independance de ce
peuple, dit Khaldoun, Uhistorien
arabe.

CENTENAIRE DE FIFTH AVENUE
La Cinquème Aventue de New York, célébrée dans le monde entier comme l'artère par éminence où le luxe, l'élegance et la beauté artistiques se sont données rendez-vous a fete, récemment son centiètre ammiraire. A cette occasion tous les quotidiens ont fait paraire des éditions extraordinaire, illustrant les changements progressifs par lesquel cette voie très-modele au début de deveneur ce qu'elle est aujourd'hui.
Religion y propaganda de materialización han arraunado a nuestra raza; ya que esta reconoce su verdadero Dios, ha de venerarle por medio de la agencia de la verdad y no por medio de la hiporriza y de la mentira, política de las escuelas misionarias, las cuales enseñan cristianismo con un tonio y roban y expiotan con el otro. La raza acepta la religión del verdadero Cristo; no el cristianismo que arrebata el sustento, la propiedad y hasta el hogar al semejante, sino el Cristo de amor, de justicia y de misericordia; la raza no acepta la propaganda de tanta mentira y de tanta faigia, que hace del mundo un hogar de placer, prosperidad y feicidad para aquellos que con suficiente malicia, proclaman que el Creador les ha hecho duenos del mundo y arquitectos de sus propios destinos.
ECLIPSE DE SOLEIL
Le 24 Janvier, 1924; il y aura une eclipse totale du soleil. Cette eclipse sera visible; aux Etats Unis, à Long Island, à Nantucket et dans une partie de l'Eutat de New York. Le Departement de la Marine est en train d'étudier un projet d'observations dans le but de faire prendre des photographies. On pense que les dirigeables "Shenandoah" et "Los Angeles" seront employés à cette fin.
El ainor a Cristo y la veneración a la religión cristiana de parte de nuestra laza es inquestable; pero reusamos aceptar por más tiempo la interpretación que a esta dan aquellos cuyos principios fundamentales persiguen el adelanto ó el establecimiento de los derechos humanos. Ellos han fragado al tratar de imprimar al mundo en esta era de luz y de progreso, con su honradez de propósito, sin simples propagandistas que cual maquina parlante laboran mecanicamente nuestra raza esta harta ya de intrigas y de decepciones, y se fortifica con la coraza de la expediencia.
Incendie a Jersey City
Nos abriga la esperanza que la raza humana encontrará en dia no lejano su verdadera alma, y siendo olvidará que Inglaterra deberá vivir expensas del Afrika y de la India, y de que deberá existir a expensas de la benignidad del los millones de negros, y que todos nosotros deberemos tener un amor comn y vivir en simpatia, repartiéndonos igual carga y asociar nuestras lagrimas y amarguras en el terrible transe de la existencia.
Sur le quay K du chenin de fer de Pennsylvanie, au pied de la deuxième rue, un incendie s'est déclare qui a duré trois heures. C'est le troisième incendie à ravager la ville de Jersey. City ces dernières semaines. Les pertes sont évaluées à $1,000,000.
Tal es la esperanza de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de La Raza Negra, y es nuestra creencia que este nuevo año nos traera más cerca hacia la realización del ideal por el cual Cristo vino a este mundo, a pagar con su muerte por nuestra redención. Nosotros deseamos que todos los negros mantengan una actitud de temperancia, actitud no solamente en el sentido de la disipación simo en lo general. La raza debería pensar mas serio y mas profundamente y dar un pensamiento más inteso a lo que concierne a la vida que nos rodeo y al futuro que anhelamos.
El mejor consejo que podemos ofrecer en este nuevo año es, que cada uno de nosotros debemos un pensamiento más bondedo al objetivo que persigue esta organización, unir nuestra fuerzas mentales, físicas y materiales en todo aquello que deseamos más; reacción estrecha entre nosotros, fraternidad dentro de la raza y llevar por divisa UN MISMO DIOS, UN MISMO OBJETO, UN MISMO DESTINO.

Los tres Reyes han salido de sus palacios. Los tres tres venjecion. El rey Melchor es alto, con una barba blanca, con sus ojos azules, un tantico encorvado, con un bigote largo y una perilla más larga todavía. El Rey Gaspar no usa nada en la cara; va afetado, pikro, correcto, pero su narle cae un poco en gancho sobre laoca, y en la comiura de sus labios hay algo como una conrisa equivoca, inquietante, como una ironia vaga, desconsoladora. Yo os digo desde este instante, pequeños amigos mios, que no perdidas de vista a este viejecio....
Los tres Reyes van, caminando durante la noche por un camino largo; las estrellas brillant, serenas, rutilantes, en la boveda negra; abajur en la tierra, tal vez en la lejania remota, que oye un gnite, perdido o se ve el besplandor incierto de una lucecita. Esta lucecita indica una cuiridad. Los Reyes han llegado-ya a esta ciudad. Ya can a recorrer sus calles; ya van a deterense ante las casas; ya can a meter las manos en sus granides arcaces; ya van a dejar en los baicones sus dadiivas ansidadas. Pero los tres se detienen un momento antes de penetrar en la ciudad. Antes-ya lo habre oido contar—estos Reyes en muy ricos y los ponián sus regalos a todos los niños de todas las casas, de todas las ciudades; pero el tiempo ha corrido mucho; las circunstancias han cambido mucho para los Reyes. y estos tres exceintes monarcas, a fuerzas de prodigir sus dadiñas, han venido a ver grandeinveniente intermado su caudal. Quiero decirso que Gaspar, que Baltasar y que Melchor se vgu todos los años en el terrible compromiso de no dejar sus recuerdos previsió sino a tales o cuales nífos que el azar les designa.
La propaganda maliciosa de las otras razas—Debemos patrocinar las empresas de nuestra organización y arraigarnos a su esplendido ideal—Prédicas de los falsantes en nombre del salvador—Cotrarrestemos propaganda con propaganda—Nuestra raza venera la santa doctrina y el credo de la verdadera religión cristiana—Esperanza para el futuro—Un bueo consejo
Es verladeramente alentador el observer cuan maravillosamente nuestro pueblo se decarta de la influyente psikologia de las otras razas, promoviendo un caracter racial de si propio. Por largo tiempo elementos de otras razas han tratado de esclavizarnos por medio de su propaganda falsa y viciosa; ellos han intentados hacernos observar la vida bajo su propio punto de vista y convertirnos en instrumento para la realizacion de sus aspiraciones; pero afortunadamente, de nuestra raza surge en esta nueva efa de progreso un nuevo tipo de hombre, dispuesto a deshacerse de la psikologia y de la propaganda del semejante y patrocinar su propio ideal.
La raza blanca ha obtenido exito en la sumisión del universo, imponiendo a todos su modo de pensar; ella ha dado al mundo desde las paginas de la Biblia hasta la musica incua cuartilla de presa la literatura que establece su derecho y soberania en desventaja del resto de la familia humana. Su propaganda le ha hecho la duencia de la situacion y todos aquellos que se han puesto en contacto y han aceptado aquella, se han converido en sus esclaves.
Nuestra organización apela de nuevo a los encuentros millones de elementos de la raza, para que descartados de la psicología ye de la propaganda de los otros pueblos, establezca y defiende la raya propuesta. El Hanoo ha predicado, que lo mejor del universo ha sido una diadica existiva para nosotros predicaremos de lo sucesivo que todos y cada una de las belezas de la creación son nuestras y que son lo legalmente los heredetos de todo cuanto el Ser-Supremo haya conferido al hombre; el blanco ve un mundo para el y propaga su detrita de genero; el Negro del mismo modo reconoce actualmente el mismo derecho y predicará el ideal a todos su generaciones.
Los tres Reyes se han dejeido a las 'puritas' de la ciudad. Mélech el de la barba blanca y los jos azules—no creía a quien os lo pinte con tez negra, 'tiene delante de si una gran arca, que el ha abierto para inspeccionar que es lo que queda en ella. Baltasar, el de la perilla y el bigote—reiros de los que os lo representen de otro modo—tiene también su area, y en ella, con el mismo fin, he hecho su recuento. Gaspar, pequeños animigos míos, no tiene area, no tiene equipaje, no tiene ningun camello, ui calloso, ui asno en que llevar lo que ha de regalar a los mitos, pero tiene una nariz un poco encorvado y unos labios que expresan una ironia suave, vaga, inquiradora.
Nada en concreto, nada honesto hemos de hallar en la literatura que propaga las ideas radicales de las otras razas; en pro de sus intereses propagan la bidad de su propio pueblo, desagraditando los hecho meritorios de los demas. No heimos de esperan que editores y escritores de otras razas no bilden con otros calificativos que los de salvajes e ignorantes proclamandose ellos super-hombres y semidioses. Hora es ya para que muestra raza cese de pensar en las ideas de otros pueblo en el sentido de aceptarias como direccion y proposito en la vida; debemos y tenemos que ser nuestros propios directores, delineando el derrotero de nuestro propio destino.
Los tres Reyes han hecho ya su arqueo y se disponen a penetrar en la ciudad. Como van siendo ya por obras, ellos no llenan las cestas que hay en todos los balcones, sino que seguir la comodidad o el capricho, dejan sus muebles. v regalos en unos que no pocos y pasan de largo alto otos, que son muichos. He de decuros que para que sean más los unos favorecidos, los tres Reyes han converido, no en donar los tres sus regalos a tedos los nitos elegidos, sino en que cada una haga una donación a cada niño. Y asi de tarde en tarde. Melchor se para delante de una casa y abre su arcón, luego deja en la ventana su dada. Lo que este rey de la barba blanca regala, se llama INTELIGENCIA. Mácho de un largo rato, Baltasar se detiene ante otra casa y mete la mano en su tesoro; después pone su diáfisa en la ventana. Lo que este rey del bigote y de la perilla dona tiene por nombre BONDAD.
Y solo este hisórico rey Gaspar, este rey de la mariz picuda y de los tabios apretados, sólo este rey pasa, y pasa, y pasa ante los balcones y se detine sino ante uno, o dos o tres de cada ciudad. Y ¿que es lo que hace entonces el rey Gaspar? ¿Qué es lo que regala este rey? ¿Por qué es tan sordido, tan avaro, tan riguroso en sus regidos? Todo el tesorado de este rey está en una diminuta caixa de plata que el lleva en uno de los bolsillos de su levita—no olvidad que los reyes usan ahora, lebita. Cuando Gaspar se detine ante un balcon, alla, muy de tarde en tarde, el echa mario de su pequena caja, la afre con cuñidad y pone su donativo en el balcon. No es uada lo que ha puesto; es una cosa insignificante; es como humo, que se disipa al morviendo; pero este niño favorecido con tal regaló gozará de el durante toda la vida y no se separara de el ni la felicidad ni la alegría.
El rey Gaspar ha depositado ya su regalo. Sus ojos verdes—no os he dicho antes que eran verdes—brillan fosforecescentes; su narz pareace que baja más sobre la boca, v en los labios se dibuju con más profundidad su iro e vaga. Acercos pequeños amigos mios; yo es qilerndeir lo que el rey Gaspar lave en su caja. Sobre la tana, con batas diminutas, pone: ILUSIONES.
MAT THE FUTURE HOLDS FOR THE NEGRO RACE
It Depends Largely Upon the Race and How It Uses Its Opportunity — What Marcus Garry Has Done to Arouse the Sleeping Negroes of the World
To the Editor of The Negro World:
We have just passed another anniversary of the man Jesus, whose birth and ascension nineteen hundred years ago firmly secured for man eternal spiritual salvation. Our minds naturally contemplated the ideals for which that great spiritual-being inside so tremendous a sacrifice has haxined. His life and manhood and condescending act actually taking upon Himself human infirmities.
As we meditate in wonder and in awe why a being so holy and exalted should

associate Himself with weak and deprived, humanity, our faults and limited understanding tells us that it was love that actuated and inspired what not so amazing.
Love, compassion and service the great ideal and objective of the now ascended Redeemer.
The great reformer and Saviour, having realized His mighty spiritual objective, has rescinded, and today the principles and ideals for which He entered the flesh, for which He suffered and died, are the only sanctifying hope of humanity, whose life.
The Prince of Peace was incarnated and did that men might brothers he. He died to express love the foundation of all life. He died to reclaim spiritual man, and man is of dual composition.
During the course of the ages, and today, men have been and are yet experiencing many 'up' ups and downs in their material affairs. At present, as in the past, humanity's suffering from the pressure of materialism. It is to secure freedom from this great pressure that nations and races of all times have adopted so many popular attitudes in their dealings with each other. Through sin and selfishness many nations have been living and as a result we are living on the busk of our existence only. The best ideas for which the Prince of Peace gave His life are upheld but by a few of earth's teening millions.
But the work of the Redeemer has not failed. It cannot fail. For the life he lived and the mission. He made have power and are still serving us as an everlasting example and inspiration for men of every race, nation and great, and as we behold in our imagination the coming of the blessed Christmas anniversary, which means so much for the world especially, our thoughts also reflect upon those men and those institutions which are doing so much for the well being of the weak, downroden and-defenseless.
Humanity is one great unit, but men are divided into various groups, and every group has its own popular problem to solve. We, the 499,000 men of us, human beings represent the Negro group of the human family, and we have a great problem before us for solution. Our problem at this time constitutes the ideal in which we achieve, constitutes the ideal for which we suffer and are prepared to die for if needs be. That ideal is: 'The universal emancipation of our people from the oppression of slavery under our common suffer and the redemption of Africa from the possession of great intruders and exploiters. Yes, the emancipation of our people and the redemption of Africa are the burning ambition and desire of every real Negro.
To bring about a realization of a racial or national ideal, the guides, redeemers and saviors of the day are inspired by a higher sense of love, service and duty for their less-thinking fellows, and they formulate plans and programs. Thus it is we will hold in our own racial group men and movements that are working more or less connecchiously to unmask the ideal of a racial or national ideal, and those men and the movements are Marcus Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Negro humanity has been suffering for centuries because of our ignorance and the absence of true leaders. During the source of our suffering there have sprung up a few shining lights.

but those lights did not fully possess those forces that are conductive to a definite end. But with the advent of Marcuus Survey and the organization of the Universal Negro Improvement Association the permanent cure for Neroug his has come. For that reason Negroes the world over have caught a new vision that is elevating their hope for the future. Under the influence and power of the Universal Negro Improvement Association the mind of Negroes everywhere are gradually undergoing a transformation that will eventually result in their occupying their proper place in the affairs of men. Through the leadership of Marcuus Garvey and the medium of the Universal Negro Improvement Association the ideal of the Negro peoples of the world will be realized, because the man and the movement of Negroes which alone can bring about the desordination of a struggling people.
At this time, when we are meditating upon love, service and sacrifice, let Negroes everywhere unite in the effort to bring about a more speedy consumption of our desire. Every Negro is called to the grand work of emancipation and redemption, because every unit of our great race possesses those forces that are required to internalize our grand objective. When through the sustained and combined effort of Mareus Garvey and other conscientious Negroes, our race the world comes to know the real facts that appear—and so-called, that suffering will come to an end.
*Negroes, the things that we are around us are not gossip, but are the effects of cones. Follow men, mind, be in only creator and power. In *Negroes possess mind!* there is a difference it is not in kind, but in the degrees of realization, development and expression. Therefore, *Negroes no longer worship Us like others* and fabrics. If we must worship us, we worship us by making ourselves and ourselves create these conditions that we must desire. It is to the end of self-expression that the Hom. Macros there has been calling our attention to.
The proper relationship between men should be love and appreciation only for all men are in reality the same, so the thinking and intention of the more developed nations and races will not change this time take advantage of the Negroes present all condition, that will in the spirit of the man Jesus assist the Negroes a recollection of his own experience, and will help us in I will draw all men unaware. Will professing Christian nations and races duplicate and practise that wonderful expression in their deeds with the Negro.
The Negroes will be unanimous that Negro shall be redeemed, because Negroes, desire that it shall be so, and it is desire that materializes all ideas. Let the forces of evil continue to do their worst, the law of redistribution should enjoy their per cent.
I like to respect that Africa shall be redeemed, although there are many obstacles in the way. Men can destroy the Negroes, and they can control, and today, thank God. Negroes are becoming more spirit than body, and will, therefore, be indestructible.
The Negro race lives the rest of the human family because we are穷够 enough 67 to realize that we cannot really live God and hate our fellowmen, and so we endure the ignorance, dishonesty and abuses of our fellow-man. But we fear no force but the power of God, for we know that the only is the creator, preserver and final power of God. We will also confidence in Him. And as we endeavor to make provision for our material needs by encasing in industrial enterprises and by acquiring steamships, etc., we will also remember the purpose for which the man Jesus was born. We will not be blinded by the materialism of our age, but we will truly demonstrate the spirit of real love and brotherhood, which is the manifest duty of the Negro race.
At this season my effort for Negroes is an inspiration to be of good cheer, an inspiration to light on with comfort, an inspiration to lead the leadership of Garvey and the banner of the Red, the Black and the Green.
With the assurance of my good wishes for your present and future happiness, yours sincerely.

The baby's wants are few, but he is an entirely too important person not to be given deep consideration. His gifts must above all be daity in color, beautifully made and appropriate. A matching jacquet and jacket of very, very satin ribbon would please the mother as much as the child. For a little girl, who early in life may be expected to misfess her delight in frills and fuselabs, the edges may be lace trimmed and French flowers or tiny rosettes of ribbon decorate the seabell. A young man who has not yet reached the age of protection, such an adult would be more appropriate merely bound with ribbon, and all scallops, lace and bows eliminated. If you wish to add a little warmth to this gift it may be intersplined with a layer of flannel. Fugging, button-holing or any-fancy stitch may replace the lace eliging, if desired.
Since safety pins are so much worn by the yummier set, a fancy container for them would be sure to be appreciated. The touch of fantasy introduced by the two kevyle heads and the frivolous bows in the cushion photographed neutralizes the utilitarian purpose and shows just how interesting such a device may be made.
A simpler model is merely a square or oblong cushion, very soft and light in weight, covered with satin ribbon and trimmed with a bouquet of ribbon.
For keeping his clothes neat and unwinkled, the baby would appreciate a padded lunge, covered with ribbon to match the color scheme of his nursery.
Of course the handle should be wound with narrow ribbon, and a bouquet of fruit or flowers added for good measure. Flowers or ribbon rosettes with safety pins enclosed are easily fitted onto a dainty frock to give a festive air.
For a very young baby, a baby pillow is most acceptable. This should be filled with down, very soft, and
not, they've stuffed. The covering should be plush so it is easily removed and cleaned. The most practical pillow is made of handkerchief linen, embroidered with French embroidery, or it may be entirely of lace or it may be made of satin ribbon. The one photograph has the baby's work titled in narrow ribbon to match the pink satin of which the cover is made, and the whole looks like a nicely frosted birthday cake. If you can make rag dolls successor you have it in your power to please a baby immensely. These should always be made of materials that will withstand much rough usage, and that will not fade. All toys for a baby should be soft so he cannot hurt himself with them and so that if he insists on taking them to bed they will not hurt him if he rolls on them.

It has been said that the tales of Bohumil at Rasalbah were called "The Arabian Night" because the temperatures times reached 125 degrees Fahrenheit in the shinde, whereas the nights were cool by comparison. Bohumil since the World War has had such a boom that its cosmopolitan population is much too busy to afford staus and language. The race is now to the swift. The modern quarer an idleminded from the ancient has taken to electric lights, motor transportation and the airplane. More and more Bohumil is becoming a cross-country traveler to the West*. Some time ago Winson on Churchill dubbed it—the Aeolian, Chapham Junction of the East.
In the ninth century, Bagdad was supposed to have a population of 2,000,000 souls the city then being five miles across between the walls. Its only rival in literature and the arts was Cologne, which was inferior to Bagdad. Baghdad was the religious capital of Islam. Before the end of the century the decline and set it with the downfall of the Abbasid dynasty. Travelers in the twelfth century found the western city crumbling to ruins and the eastern quarter disheveled by large uninhabited spaces. It was no longer the city that term was still carried in official documents.
Now they are talking of England as "an center of world traffic." Tourists are rocking into the place. Round-the-world admiren dropped down there during the summer. Major Forbes Leith on his motor trip from London to Quetta put it on his itinerary. There is a daily train service to Istanbul, and weekly convoy services to Hammadon, Telenon and Enzeli (connections with Baku). When an airplane mall service to London, via Cairo, was established two years ago passengers for London had to take a roundabout route via tadh. It consumed a month, but now motor transport carries patrons west to London in four nine to twelve days at half the cost of the old journey. "There are now two distinct lines of travel by land" and sea to London.
