MARCUS GARVEY HAPPY IN SUFFERING SENDS MESSAGE OF CHEER TO THE MEMBERS OF THE UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION I am pleased to be able to send you a message of love and cheer from my prison cell. I am happy to suffer for the cause of Negro freedom, buoyed up by the knowledge that you continue in such a splendid manner to hold aloft the torch which I sought to carry. Stand fast! Give your unstinted support to those to whom I have assigned the guidance of this great organization at the present time. Let it never be said that the twentieth century Negro proved a "quitter" when the call came for the exercise of manhood and womanhood. Stand fast, I repeat. Close your eyes to the shortcomings on the part of your associates in your divisions and concentrate on the great objective. Now is the time to acquit yourselves like real men and women. Preserve the honor of the Red, the Black and the Green in spite of the The picture of me handcuffed to a white marshal broadcast from New York and reproduced in nearly every Negro newspaper in this country, cut out and hang on your walls as a silent reminder for future generations of the race's humiliation in the year 1925. I commend to your careful attention the following extract from a speech which I recently delivered: The world is full of wrong and injustice, the continuation of which will change our civilization and life beyond present recognition. We will go from Czarism, Kaiserism, Monarchism, Republicanism and Sovietism to God knows what; all for the chance of getting "justice." But, although the world in its political and social systems changes to meet the justice of man, we will find ourselves further and further away from the ideal. If we take the political and social systems of England we will find the people divided into many classes, each fighting against the other, under the belief that the crime of injustice is practiced against it, and so also of France, Italy and America. As we witness the struggle of injustice among the classes, so do we have it among the races. No one will gainsay the fact that the injustice of the one race to the Japanese makes them resentful, restless and revengeful, and the same injustice to the Indian and the Negro will ultimately drive them to a union of spirit and may yet develop a new civilization and a new ideal. Negro the Greatest Sufferer As Negroes, no one suffers from the infliction of injustice more than we do. It is practiced against us in every walk of life—politically, socially, industrially, educationally, commercially, judicially, and even religiously. For three hundred years the Negro has cried out against the crime of injustice, and he is no nearer being heard today on his own account than when he first raised his voice. In the general order of things the weak suffers most from the crime of injustice. The strong man will in his manner oppress the less fortunate. The whole situation is sound therefore, hangs on the developed strength of the individual, time or nation. It is the qualification of this Association of the Universal Negro Improvement Association with the purposes of "caring together" among CHEERFUL IN PRISON AS MOVEMENT HE LEADS GATHERS EVEN GREATER MOMENTUM BIDS NEGROES PRESERVE PICTURE OF HIM UNDER ARREST AS BROADCAST FROM NEW YORK BY THE ENEMY AND REPRODUCED THROUGH- OUT COUNTRY WILL SERVE AS SILENT REMINDER FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS NEGRO RACE THE GREATEST SUFFERER FROM THE POWERFUL FORCES BECAUSE IT IS THE WEAKEST-ACCUMULATE STRENGTH AND COMMAND RESPECT be strong, we must come together; if we must come together. we can only do so through the system of organization. When the Britons were weak and scattered, they received no justice. When the French were weak and divided, they suffered in the same manner; but with unity, strength was developed, and with strength came national, racial justice. When we can successfully bring together the majority of the four hundred million Negroes of the world, we will have not only racial, collective and individual justice, but national justice as well. Accumulate Strength The best that we can do is to work and pray for the hastening of the time when we, too, will have become a united and strong people, able by our force of character and achievement to demand not sympathy but justice from all men, races and nations. Let us not waste time in breathless appeals to the strong while we are weak, but lend our time, energy and effort to the accumulation of strength among ourselves by which we will voluntarily attract the attention of others. Jack Johnson, Harry Wills and Firpo attract attention of other men because they have developed their bodies and muscles to protect themselves against the attack of their rivals; England, France, Italy, Japan and America attract attention of other nations because of their powerful militacy and naval strength; and the Negro can only arrest the attention of the rest of mankind in the quest for justice, for fair play, when we can produce to the world the "real stuff" that makes man feel, if he doesn't hear. There can be no argument against the Negro's acquisition of strength and power. This is needed not only in our racial life but in our national life. We must have a country—a government of our own. We must make our own impress upon a world of injustice and convince men by the same means or methods of reasoning as others by their Don't be deceived; there is no justice but strength. In other words, might is right, and if you must be heard and respected you have to accumulate nationally, in Africa, those resources that will compel unjust man to think twice before he acts. Our consolation should be, however, that each and every race will have its day; and there is no doubt that the Negro's day is drawing near. We may not trust to the abnormal strength and progress of others to believe that the world and humanity are settled, for in the twinkling of an eye all creation can pass away, and men, races and nations be no more. In a short hour Pompeii fell, and in a shorter time still Germany was crushed beyond the hope of immediate resurrection, to say nothing of ancient Greece and Rome. What has happened in the past to other races and nations will happen again; set let us work and pray, for suerly our day of triumph and authority to mete out justice will come, and Africa may yet teach the higher principles of justice, love and mercy; yea, true brotherhood. Those Who Now Wreak Vengeance Will Pass Away Some of us become at times drunk with our power and authority, and, in the fullness of our narrow conceit, wreak our vengeance upon others under the guise of justice. Oh! how wanton is man! Irresponsible in his conceit! Vain in the realization of his power! Even vicious to the point of vengeance! We glory in the fact that he is only man, and in the natural course of life will pass away, the wretch, with injustice written upon his soul, like the dog, to be unwept and unmourned, in the higher spiritual sense; to be another subject of hell, perdition and the dust from which no pleasant memory springs. Living for Self Some of us think that we live only in the physical, but are we not really conscious of a higher life? If there is, and there is, then why die like the dog? Why not die like a Christ, a John the Baptist, a St. Augustine, a Caesar, even at the base of Pompey's statue; a Joan of Arc, even with the fagots around her; a Robert Emmet, with his head upon the block; a Terrence MacSwiney, in Mountjoy jail? Oh, what honor and glory we give to man for the service he renders tinselfishly to his brothers! With what disgust we curse the wretch who lives but for self and for those of his kind around him; yes, he who has no knowledge of truth, whose soul is filled with corruption, bribery and injustice. Negroes, shall we not choose between right and wrong? Shall we not pattern the lives of those men, races and nations that have prospered by justice? Surely we shall, for in so doing we will have removed ourselves from the curse of the heartless, sinful, unjust world to a new temporal sphere, where man will live in peace and die in the consciousness of a new resurrection. Such will be Afric's day, when a new light will encircle the earth, and black men lift their hands to their God and Princes come out of our country. For this we will not give up hope, but fight and struggle on, until the Angel of Peace and Love appears. Thrilling Story of a Traveller Who Has Gone Three Times Around the Globe and Is Still on His Pilgrimage—Has New Religion I am more interested in religion than in anything else, but my religion does not prohibit me from working in the political line. And my politics and my religion aim at the well-being of human society. I do not merely believe in talk or thought. I must act. I must do all what I can to help mankind: India is a part of the human family. The thought to help India and through India our human society made me travel a great deal. During my wanderings I met many interesting persons, such as the ex-Katset, late Suitan, late Lenin. I do not mean to write about them here. Let us pass by. They are all "late" and they are all "ex." I will relate just a plain story of a living memory. But is not the story also a passed affair? Well, not exactly. Kingdoms may fall, kings be buried under earth, but they stamp of an experience in life remains fresh in its interest. Such is, indeed, a little event of my life. In itself, it is hardy of any importance, but so far as I am concerned, it chalks out a new life to me. But for that event, I would have had quite a different career. I might have died long ago. It is 1817—In the middle of the great war, I am traveling up towards Palmira—the roof of the world. I started from Masarshariel, the capitol of Afghan Turkestan. It is getting warmer every whale. We are still in the plains, and spring is just approaching. In these plains it gets at times very cold, but when the spring strikes its note the whole 'atmosphere suddenly begins to change.' Fields are soon in their teens. Flowers fill the air with their laughter. Everything is gay. The little birds surpass everything. They go dancing and singing with the travelers. In some such surrounding we found our way to Halabak and shence to Khanabad. I may tell my readers that there is one direct road from Masarshariel to Khanabad across the desert, but I took the northern route over the hills, therefore I passed Khanabad on my way. I am not describing this part of the country. I am just going to tell you something about an event. I should therefore jump over Talugan and Ba- 'LOST VIGOR RESTORED IN 24 HOURS' "Glanda Renewed in One Day" is the Amazing Statement of a 76-Year-Old Veteran Lost vigor, deadened glands and nerves, and that weak, worn-out, depressed and half-lipped feeling need not be dreaded any more.

This place is situated just at the junction of two Pamir rivers which, joining each other here, form proper Oxur. Pamir is now just a head. On the right side as we move up there still a few villages, but the valley is very high and therefore very cold. It allowed when we were there. In this valley there is one very fine hot spring. Water is so hot that one can boll eggs in it. The last camp, in properly inhabited valley, saw dwindling of my refinance. My best horse together with my personal Indian-speaking servant, got sick and both of them had to be left behind. However, there is no lack of service. I am a special guest of the government of Afghanistan and there are quite a number of Afghan servants to look after me. I give below the exact wording of my eight-year-old diary, which still remains a manuscript: "At 26 different places we had to cross the river. The sides of the river were often ice-bound and it was very difficult to mount up the ice banks from the river. Several accidents happened. It was, however, very enjoyable and it was great fun. Jolies were seen in the shade and often we passed over snow heaps. We are now staying at the junction of Shabra and Amu rivers." Next day we passed a pass. In any case, it is called a pass because one goes up very high on the hill side, out it is no natural water shed. Pass or no pass, it proved a very difficult and exciting place of our journey. We were climbing up on a hill side without any road. One false step and man or bear goes down headlong far below into the river. Once we saw some big mountain deer high up in the snows. It was very windy at day and very cold at night. Water was frozen inside our tent. It is now Pamif. Here will alleys are broader and mountain appear lower. I will again quote from my diary: This part of country, or we may say the whole of Pamir, is the home of the Kirkiz, a tribe of Turks. They speak a dialect of Turkish and bear Mongolian type, unlike the Wakhis, who speak their own special tongue and have Aryan faces. . . . Coming down to the river and following it up we came to the Bosal Gumbaz, which is situated at the junction of two branches which come from Pamir-lake-side and Wakhjir pass. The place is called after the tomb of one Bosal Kizghiz, who was killed here by Kanjuts, a tribe of Gligit side, some seventy years before. . . . It was here that seven large "Khirghiz" were erected for us. Kharga is a round tent, a network of wood, which is collapsible, forms its round wall about four feet high. Over it rest curved pieces of wood, forming a dome. On the exterior side of the wall is first a matting cover. Over all, dome and wall, is covered with a thick woolen felt. The top of the dome is open to let out smoke and bring in light. It is also covered with felt when necessary, or when the opening is not in use. There is only one door in this round tent. It has a heavy curtain. The diameter of these tents is from fifteen to twenty feet. The middle of the tent is kept bare to burn fire while the rest of the floor is well carpeted. It was extremely windy at night. However, it was lovely to see the moonlit snow covered hills around. WEDNESDAY, MAY 3, 1917. From the morning till late in the afternoon time was spent in making the last preparations to leave the last boundary of, Afghanistan. My heart was buoyant, with the great work in hand and with the hopes of the great future for India, Afghanistan and China. When everything was ready and I had only to take meal and start off I suddenly received a letter of H. R. H. Prince, Prime Minister of Gabul, informing me that China had joined the English party and declared war on Germany and that a revolution had broken out in Russia. As a suggestion in an official language, it was pointed out to me that it was advisable "feel" Russia once again. I did not show whether to be glad or to be sorry. A feeling of sorrow came on! I did not know what to do. After consulting companions I had to give up the forward march. Relocitatively I decided to return to Khamad and then to approach Russia. This incident of receiving the letter here on the roof of the world and at the last moment is extremely remarkable. Let us see what God wants to do with us. Something very good or something very bad should be in store. I, however, believe whispered in the will of God in the very best for me and the audience. Thus write my story on May 8, 1817. It was written, of course, in an equipped and uncomplicated state of mind. Learn many other stories and information about our history. And study them if you have time, more information than I do. I hope to know both my parents from the Abkhazian fortress of Bashkir that the Abkhazian people were built around in the Crimea, and to get to know me. I hope to have memorized all the stories of our history. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 21; 1925 Written for The Negro World By J. MILTON BATSON Permit me space in your invaluable newspapers to further relate some of the things I have experienced in the land of gold and diamonds—African. In 1914 when the world war broke out, David Jack, of Trinidad, B. W. I. L. London, where we lived. We were, along with eight other Negroes from the West Indies, placed on board H. M. S. Trent fleet messenger boat No. 14, which steamed out from London via Portsmouth dockyard, Portsmouth, England, March 10. 1915, laden with ammunitions and convoying three monitors, the Humber, Severn and the Mersey, each being towed by two deep-sea tugs and accompanied for two days in the submarine-infested British Channel) by 15 torpedo-boat destroyers, for the East African fleet at Zanzibar via Malta, the Dardinelles, Port Said and Aden, Arabia. Before we left London, however, "Bandy," a Negro quartermaster, was court-martialed and sentenced to ten days in prison for some minor offense. During the cruise on our perilous journey, Hardy, a stoker and a native of Kingston, Jamaica, became ill. He pleaded with the ship's surgeon that he was sick and unable to work, but he was ordered back to the stokhole and accused of being lazy and threatened with courtmartial. To those of us who could have seen Hardy, that he was a sick man there could have been no doubt, for he had reduced almost a skeleton. On our arrival at Malta, some weeks later, he was court martialed on board and sentenced to thirty days in a Maltese jail. Having served this time, he was returned on board on the morning of our departure from Malta for Egypt, looking like a living corpse. When the cogs of a wheel are broken a machine can no longer go, and a "cork" in Hardy's "wheel" was broken, and Hardy was only a man. He was returned to the mokehole, but Hardy couldn't work. He was a sick man. After a stay of one week in Egypt we departed, but had a delay of some days alongside the dock at Ismailil in the Suez Canal on account of fierce warfare between the British and Turks on the banks of the Suez Canal, in which "40,000 Turks" were taken, as I read some time afterward in an East African newspaper. We finally reached Zanzibar, East Africa, where Hardy was again court-martialled, this time by the Admiral on board his flagship, and sentenced to three months' imprisonment. He was taken from Zanzibar to the military prison at Simon's Town, South Africa. After spending ten days in this prison he was removed to the prison hospital, where he died two days later. A medical report posted on the bulletin board on board our ship was to the effect that Hardy, a native of Jamaica, a British subject, died in the prison hospital at Simon Town of double pneumonia. Death, it stated, was due to natural causes. No white corpse of a similar standard in life could have received more attention than was given to that of Hardy. He was placed in a lovely coffin, beautifully ornamented and on which stood eight wreaths. I might here mention that he had no relatives or friends in South Africa. There were about 100 men at his funeral, nine being Negroes and all the others white. He was given a regular military funeral; with the gun carriage drawn by whites, a white minister and three volleys of blanks were fired over the grave, while two white buglers and myself sounded the "last post" on our bugles. Ashes to ashes and dust to dust, and nine Negroes took up small portions of Africa in our hands and threw it on Hardy. "Fall in" was ordered, "form four, right by the right; quick; march!" was commanded, and we were all again on the march to rejoin H. M. S. Trent, fleet messenger boat, No. 14, having behind us Hardy, a Negro, loyal and patriotic native of Kingston, Jamaica; a victim, a corpse in the grave in a cemetery at Simon's Town, South Africa—the land of his father, from whence he came, and the trials and sufferings of Hardy and his death and the acts of the bosom, are "they not written" on the page of time? And Hardy is at rest with his fathers in Africa. In my next article I will try to relate some of my own trying experience in mist and abuse, Abrae, and particularly Port Natal or George's Africa—The Rosewood or George's of Africa SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT This is to make known that I have appointed the following officers of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League as a committee of management to administer the affairs of said association and auxiliary: SIR WILLIAM LE VAN SHERRILL, Second Asst.

Howard University System of Rigid Examinations and Regimen Produce Splendid Results in Physical Preparedness WASHINGTON, D. C. For the past three years students entering Howard University have been compelled to undergo rigid physical examinations as a part of the institution's program for study and improvement of health conditions among Negroes. In much the same manner as examinations were made upon draftsmen during war days, a corps of men and women physicians under the direction of Dr. A. B. Jackson, Director of the School of Public Health, has made a careful search for physical defects among the student body. Contrary to the general ballot held regarding the health of Negroes, these examinations, though conducted with searching scrutiny, reveal the fact that the selected youth of the race as it seeks entrance at Howard is found to be in fine physical condition. Drawing from among the specialists who teach in the University, School of Medicine becomes an easy matter to have expert service in determining the various physical findings. From head to foot the students are examined by these experts, each confining himself to his particular specialty. The order of examination that follows is, height, weight, eyes, ears, nose, throat, teeth, chest expansion, lungs, heart, abdomen, spine, feet and legs. In every instance, the findings are checked up on individual cards, together with recommendations and prescription for SPECIAL ANN This is to make known the following sal Negro Improvement African Communities of management to admit association and a SIR WILLIAM L.

All officers and men sal Negro Improvement governed accordingly. the various sorts of physical education most suitable for each case. All male students physically fit are assigned to the Reserve Officers' Training Corps for three periods and gymnastics for two periods per week. Those physically unit have prescribed for their courses in corrective hygiene, which aim to bring the student up to the normal. For the female students who are physically fit-five periods a week are devoted to educational gymnastics and games, and those physically unit have prescribed for them that form of corrective hygiene best suited to the individual case. Dr. Jackson, the Director, in commenting on the beneficial results which have been accomplished during the three years he has directed the work, a few days ago said: "We expect to make a complete analysis of our findings for publication. The high sick and death rate among the colored people is most certainly not due to any physical or physiological differences with other races, but must be charged up to the lack of health education and that alone. Health education will prolong the life of saint or sinner, black or white; as it draws neither a color or a religious line. At Howard we feel it our job to teach health with just as much emphasis as we teach science, religion and the classics. No race of people I am certain can possibly rise any higher than their health index. "Three years' experience in this university has proven to me that health education pays, for I have seen it gets results. A number of boys and girls who were checked up last year so unit are today fit, and are proud of it. Others there are who, though found with certain physical defects and received warning together, with attempts at education, ignored both and are today not of equal skill-abilities to parents, friends and nation. In short we are nothing likeenable at Howard, with the hope that the style will gain over among the twelve million Negroes who in order to win most justices, widely and stamina them of all their abilities." MIXTURE All private and personal communications should be sent to Mt. Wash. Mint Store, New York City. Sage Mint. Alley Jacqueline Garage..... All pioneers suffer. It is the price they pay for opening up a new country for those who are to come behind. Marcus Garvey is no exception. Garvey—the courageous, the daring one! Unafraid in the face of humiliations and misrepresentations, he continues to lead his people on to the "Promised Land" of industrial and economic independence. He knows that ultimate victory is bound to come and he pays the price with a smile. Garvey—the nine days' wonder of people everywhere, white and black. His supreme courage is the delight and inspiration of his followers and the despair of his enemies. Garvey will continue to live, and lead his people. His influence over his race will continue to increase. Millions of people will continue to feed upon the spirit of this great leader. They have imprisoned his body but his spirit remains unfettered to hover over and encourage those who will carry on. Negro newspapers everywhere headlined and front-paged the incarceration of Marcus Garvey. News is supposed to be colorless. That is to say ANNOUNCEMENT be known that I have ap- piring officers of the Univer- vement Association and ties League as a committee to administer the affairs of and auxiliary: M. LE VAN SHERRILL, President-General. RD S. BOURNE, Chan- CARTER, Secretary- members of the Univer- vement Association will be ugly. MARCUS GARVEY It should not rightly contain the slightest shade of opinion. But the delight that most Negro newspapers seemed to take in retelling every detail of what they considered the humiliation and end of Marcus Garvey was unmistakable. Now that the smok of doubtful publicity has cleared away, a calm and truthful contemplation of the situation seems in order. The one and only reason why Marcus Garvey has been sgriffed upon the altar of public opinion is that they think he failed. The Black Star Line was not a commercial success, so the man who conceived it and who tried so hard to make it a reality had to pay. If he had succeeded, most Negroes today would have been singing a different tune. So, in the final analysis, the popular judgment of Marcus Garvey hoils down to nothing except a question of success and failure. Signal success in any one of the various uplift projects created and fostered by Marcus Garvey will change the hoots of derision and popular condemnation of this man over night to shouts of praise. Such is the nature of the mob. Let not the wise be deceived. Many believe, and some have even dared to prophesy, that the movement will die. These people show themselves ignorant of this great man and his followers. "Garvylism" in its entirety is a doctrine of forward-looking optimism. The followers of Marcus Garvay have been taught that they Genuine BAYER ASPIRIN Say "Bayer" - Insist! For Pain - Headache Neurology - Neuropharm Lumbago - Colds Say "Bayer" - Insist! are pioneers, "trailblazers" if you please, and they aspect to suffer to reach the heights. They have been taught that all great movements have been sanctified by suffering. They are not surprised and discouraged when their leader is humiliated and made to "sweat blood" for the cause. Mr. Garvey is not only the leader of the largest group of Negroes ever gotten together, for any one reason, but he is a teacher of this enormous group. And they know their leader. He smiles—and words are unnecessary, they know that all is well. They have unbounded confidence in him and they ask no explanations. And Mr. Garvey does smile, both outwardly and inwardly. He smiles because he is bigger than anything that can happen to him. He believes, and rightly, that at last Negro has come forth who has been endowed with the Power from on High to create an organization bigger than himself, an organization bigger than any one individual. Mr. Garvey knows that the motive, force behind his people, has ever been the "spirit" of the leader. And he knows that this same spirit will continue to lead them. Reports coming from the prison indicate that he is accepting the inevitable in the manner all would expect who know him best. He wastes no time and energy in vain self-pity and useless grief because the prison bars separate him from his people. He knows that life is but a short span at best and that time is very precious. He spends his leisure time improving his mind and planning for the organization. Such is Garvey. And his cheerfulness and calm acceptance of that which must be endured are a greater help and encouragement to his people than he knows. It is interesting to note how this cheerfulness has permeated the entire organization. They miss their leader and their reverence for him is very beautiful, but they do not grieve. The most trivial incident concerning him is listened to with the greatest interest: If the incident is an unhappy one, they laugh heartily as they know he wants them to do. The organization has its eyes on the "chief" and the chief has not failed it. One very brilliant and efficient official high up in the organization and very close to Mr. Garvey, said that when he came into Mr. Garvey's presence he thought of a thousand things to say, but could say none of them. It is interesting to note by way of contrast that as soon as anyone from the organization gets within speaking distance of Mr. Garvey, he begins to ask pertinent questions and give directions. Nobody has ever known the time when Marcus Garvey did not have something very definite to say. All he needs is an opportunity. His mind is always alert. It is centered, not upon himself, but upon his people. The world asks, "Will they carry on?" And a million voices answer, "Yes, we will not fall to Carry on." They think of their chief as if he were on a long journey. They know that he will return to them a more splendid Garvey than he is now. When he is in the harness, he drives himself mercilessly. Mr. Garvey's followers are inclined to believe that the All-Wise H. B. Stone Finds Remarkable Way to Stop Rheumatic Pains in One Day Rheumatism, neuritis, and that terrible suffering caused by still lame joints and muscles, has been discovered since the discovery of Rurse Prescription. Now it is possible for those who are tortured over everyone these graphes, often in one day's time, to be treated with the treatment of one who has had the treatment. The prescription is bringing restored health and well-being where everything and has helped. Those Who Imagine That the Universal Negro Improvement Association Will Cease to Function Are Badly in Error To the Editor of The Negro World: If Marcus Garvey be imprisoned with the intent to foster fear and break the mental affinity of our race, it will be discovered to be the mistake of the twentieth century. He is only placed where he can be in better communion with the powers that lie in his soul and in that of those whom he leads. A universal spiritual power is possible. It forms an ethereic chain that links the genius with his black aspirants. Can an idea be limited to prison walls? Can the spirit of man, of a people, be chained? Emphatically no! Man is such a complex being that he can dwell on all planes at once. There is absolutely no stagnation in spirit, and though the outer vesture be chained, yet the spirit rages like wildfire. Therefore, if we even be with half a meal, the greater we shall fight, and though things may apparently amother, you like the fire in the field that smothers daylight, and at twilight, when all seems dark, it rages with increasing force, we shall be for the cause we so love. To the man that has arisen to his responsibility, to the master mind, the man of self-reliance, to the man who knows himself, there is no barrier, no boundary to his mental world. He fills all space with his creative powers. The world forgets that the Sigero is a slave race, and one that has reached the degree of manhood; a stage in evolution that makes it imperative for him to go forward, irrespective of time and obstacles. The harrows and atrocities of the dark past behind propel to do or die, as they continually reincarnate in his mental vision. I hear the groans of my ancestors. I see them as they how beneath the Jashes, and labor of a 12-hour day. In my mental gaze I know them the brands on their faces even as a beast of burden. I see them on the cruel tread mill as they jump, foot-sore, between the sharp knives. Oh, how they bled, how they wall and suffer, how they died! With a heart shiver of love, and compassion for them, realizing that many of them are but the slaves reincarnated, can I be still, can I be indifferent? Shall we be soulless at this crucial moment?

THE FAITH OF THE MEMBERSHIP OF THE UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION IS UNSHAKEN THE MOVEMENT GAINING IN MOMENTUM AND NUMERICAL STRENGTH AS A RESULT OF INCARCERATION OF ITS LEADER-FROM BEHIND PRISON WALLS GARVEY SENDS MESSAGE OF CHEER-BIDS FOLLOWERS TO KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK FOR AFRICA'S REDEMPTION Garvey Day to Be Observed the First Sunday of Each Month Suggestion Is Made by Mrs. Garvey and Heartily Endorsed—Special Exercises Will Remind the Members of Their Leader and Let Him Know That His Followers Are Thinking of Him DIVISIONS SEND TELEGRAMS AVOWING THEIR LOYALTY TO THE MOVEMENT AND CONFIDENCE IN MARCUS GARVEY—SHERRILL INSPIRES AUDIENCE WITH BRILLIANT SPEECH MAKING PARALLEL BETWEEN GARVEY AND OTHER LEADERS OF GREAT MOVEMENTS LIBERTY HALL, New York, Sunday Night, February 15.—The tremendous gathering that was present in Liberty Hall tonight gave living testimony to the fact that the faith of the followers of the Universal Negro Improvement Association has not been shaken one iota, although the inspiring presence of its leader, Hon. Marcus Garvey, is no more. The spirit of the movement has taken on renewed animation, and Garvey or no Garvey, the work goes on gaining momentum and gathering numerical strength under the direct guidance of the men who have assumed its leadership aided by the cheering messages that Mr. Garvey is able to send from his place of confinement behind prison walls. The meeting was presided over by Hon. C. A. Weston, Vice-President of the New York local, and among others present on the platform were Hon. William Sherrill, Second Assistant President-General: Hon. G. S. Bourne, Chancellor: Hon. Percival V. Burrowes, First Assistant Secretary-General, and Mrs. Amy Jacques Garvey, wife of the President-General. After a splendid musical program rendered by the choir and the band, speeches were delivered by Mr. Sherrill, Mr. Burrows and Mrs. Garvey. The audience was particularly pleased and inspired by the message given to them by Mrs. Garvey, who informed that she had had the pleasure of visiting Mr. Garvey in the prison and that he was in good spirits and just as much concerned about the movement and the uplift of his race. She assured them that he was in no way disheartened or downcast, and that his spirit would remain buoyant as long as the followers of the organization showed by their enthusiasm and support that they intended to carry on the work; and adhere to the principles which have brought it to the point where it has attained. She requested the chairman to lift the ban on handclapping which had been imposed in Liberty Hall as a mark of sympathy for the leader of the organization, stating that it would please him. She also made the suggestion, which was heartily endorsed, that the divisions of the organization all over the world observe the first Sunday of each month as "Garyey Day," during his incarceration, in commemoration of his service to the race. The chairman read a telegram from the Boston Division avowing the continued support of its members and assuring the committee of management that that division was still 100 per cent. for the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Following are the speeches: HON. P. V. BURROWES SPEAKS Hon. Percival V. Burrows spoke on the subject, "The Greater Urge." Never in the history of the Negro race he said, should every man and woman be seized with a greater urge to carry out the aims and objects of the great Universal Negro Improvement Association; a greater urge to see that Marcus Garvey, the leader of the organization, shall get a fair and square deal throughout the rest of his life; a greater urge to see that the officers and members who make up this organization carry out the principles laid down by its leader. The urge of Negro people throughout the world at this time is to show the world that the Negro is in dead earn- CATARRH STOPPED IN ONE DAY "Choking Catarrh and Head Noises left the First Day" is the amazing statement of a Missouri Resident Nawhiking, spitting, chewing Catarrh and Dropping all animals. The conditions all animals caused Catarrh trouble need not be drunken any longer. "Now it is possible that this is the good decision to stop their trouble offers in one day's trip with the W.R. Powell," it is being said. The authorities had taken this new treatment. This routine Formula is bringing Japan new health and sanitation standards to people everywhere else had failed. est and more determined now than at any time to carry out the principles on which this organization was, founded, and to sequestat all the members and friends of the race are acquainted with the facts concerning the cause which we serve. Tonight, said the speaker, Marcus Garvey is doing pennance for the 400,000,000 Negroes of the world; he is suffering martyrdom for us, and it remained therefore for Negroes all over the world to realize what their only salvation is within the ranks of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. What other organization, he inquired, has ever offered anything more tangible for the race; and what other man beside Marcus Garvey has been bold and courageous enough to come forward with a program such as he has given to the world. Some people may forget him, but even in their forgetfulness they will be reminded of the fact that Garvey gave to the world a slogan, and an-organization that, if any other Negro and dreamed about, did not have the courage to face the world and proclaim it. The enemies, said Mr. Burrowes, had probably thought that tonight and last Sunday night Liberty Hall would be empty, but the more they persecute the closer do they bind the ties of Negro fraternity. When men and women are reviled and persecuted for the cause they love, it is then that they are possessed with a greater urge to serve and re-dedicate their lives to the cause; and so it is with the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. He was indeed glad to see how the members of the organization were showing their appreciation for their champion while he is suffering for them in Atlanta prison, and he urged them to stand firm and do everything within their power morally, financially and otherwise. In order that this great man will have the opportunity to escape back and carry on to a finish the work that he has started. CONQUER WEAKNESS!

It is for that reason that when we are away from Liberty Hall, even though we are continually in meetings every night in the week and every Sunday night, we thirst somehow or other for the peculiar inspiration we receive from the friends, members and coworkers of our great division here in New York City. When I left you about three months ago I left you with hearts jubilant and spirits high, because you then anticipated the launching of your first ship of the Black Cross Trading and Navigation Company, the ss. "Booker T. Washington." That hope and that anticipation have now been realized, I return to you tonight to meet hearts not so jubilant and spirits not so high, but I return to you to-night to meet hearts anxious and apprehensive because the great genius who was responsible for the launching of that ship which marked the Negro's advent into the shipping industry has become the victim of the schemes, plots and machinations of those who were both Jealous and afraid of the power he was building up in the Negro race. Tonight, because he proved to them about three weeks ago that he was not joking, that he was not playing, but that he meant business when he said that he was going to carry for the Negro a place in the sun, we suffer because of temporary success of our enemies. The Universal Negro Improvement Association, those of us who have sat closely at the feet of our great leader and teacher were not so very much surprised at what took place a few days ago; for he had told us time and time again, he had prepared our minds, he had explained to us fully that the road he would be compelled to travel and those who dared to lead would be compelled to travel would be a road beset with persecutions and sufferings. I must congratulate you on the wonderful way in which you have deported yourselves during these trying times, for I realize that during these days you must have suppressed a thousand emotions. I must also congratulate you on the splendid way in which you are sticking with the association, both financially and morally. And, lastly, I must congratulate you not only you, but the divisions throughout the country—on the splendid way in which they are lying up behind the committee of management that Marcus Garvey left behind to hold together the great organization he has built up until he comes back to us. The blow that the Universal Negro Improvement Association has received in the last few days, has been a heavy one. It has made us stagger, but we have not fallen. It has made the old building shake; but it still stands, because it has been securely braced and propped for just such an emergency. And just as the Irish movement continued to go on through MacSwiney starved in the prisons of Ireland, just as the Gandhi movement continued to dash on although Gandhi was securely locked behind prison walls, so the Universal Negro Improvement Association will continue to go on and on though Marcus Garvey, be confined in the penitentiary at Atlanta, Georgia. What Marcus Garvey is to-night suffering is but a part of what many of those of us who attempt to carry out a program like this must suffer and come in contact with. Marcus Garvey is but the first of a great army of martyrs who are to suffer for the cause of African redemption. In fact, friends, we are just now entering upon the Negro's age of martyrdom; you might rightfully term it the beginning of the martyrgy age of the Negro. This is now the beginning of that age when the black man will make his contribution of martyrs just as all great organizations have done. Just as Christianity has given to the world its martyrs, just as France gave to the world its martyrs for French liberty, and as America has given to the world its martyrs for American independence, so the Negro must give to the world his martyrs for African redemption. to the world his martyr for African redemption. A martyr is one who is willing to suffer anything and everything before he will be false, to what he believes to be the truth, before he will be false to what he believes to be right and just. Martyrdom is the product of selfishness, injustice and imperialism. And so long as there is injustice in the world, so long as there is selfishness in the world, so long as there is imperialism in the world, the world is going to have its quota of martyrts. Marcus Garvey is a martyr to the cause of African freedom. Marcus Garvey is a martyr to the cause of Negro liberty. It seems as though a causeayer progresses. it seems as though a great movement never makes its greatest strides until it has been sanctified and consecrated with the blood and suffering of martyrts, Great movements that you have read of, great leaders that you have read of were compelled through the agency of martyrdom to give sanctity and consecration to their great movements or their great idea. Christianity did not really spread until Jesus Christ upon Golgotha His Life's blood. Protestantism was not really stamped indelibly upon the hearts of men until Martin Luther had been reduced to ashes for the truth of the creed in which he believed. The Universal Negro Improvement Association will not really be sanctified, the Universal Negro Improvement Association will not really receive its consecration until like Garvey, many black men and black women are willing to suffer, sacrifice and die that the cause might go on. The path that leaders are compelled to travel is a path of suffering, a path of disappointment. Now is the time in the Universal Negro Improvement Association when each and every member should hold his or her hand high, push their chests out and step with firm step, realizing that whatever comes against the Universal Negro Improvement Association there is nothing big enough, strong enough or disappointing enough—to stop the Negro in his onward march toward Africa. Those who know the path that leaders must travel have no disappointments tonight, they have no fears tonight; those who know the path that leaders must travel are fully prepared and were fully prepared to meet that which were unexpectedly Marcus Garvey knew full well that some time or other he would have to pay the price that lie is paying tonight. And not only Marcus Garvey, but anybody who attempts, or any group of individuals who attempt to carry on the work that Marcus Garvey is carrying on must at some time pay the same price. The Universal Negro Improvement Association is heating a new path, the Universal Negro Improvement Association is drawing up a new chart. Those who beat new paths, those who draw up new charts, must of necessity pay the price. Let us see. What is the Universal Negro Improvement Association trying to do? For what is Marcus Garvey suffering tonight? If Marcus Garvey had chosen a leisure path he would not be at Atlanta tonight. If he had been organizing black men to put up a chain of boothback stands, if he had been organizing black men to open a chain of stores, if he had been organizing black men to build a new church or to build a school, or to organize a bridge; if he had been organizing the Negro to, follow along. In some path he journeyed by somebody else he would be walking the streets of Harlem tonight. But because he dared to organize the Negro in order that the Negro might raise himself to the level of any other race or any other nation in the world he insured the cumple of gold and egotistic groups and brought down upon his head the worth of the golds. Those who attempt to open the eyes of the masses must always suffer, because five per cent, of the world live in luxury and enrich themselves on the Ignorance, the guiltfulness and the shortsightedness of the other ninety-five per cent. Five per cent, in the world control the world, five per cent of humanity drives the other ninety-five per cent. Because that ninety-five per cent, have not that forefight and intelligence to take care of their own affairs in a selfish, greedy and egotistic world. Now any man that comes forward trying to give light to the ninety-five per cent, any man that comes forward trying to raise the ninety-five per cent, incurs the ill will and disfavor of the five per cent. The Negro belongs to that ninety-five per cent. A large part of the world lives on the labor, or rather lives by pressing and exploiting the Negro. France collects from her colonial possessions in African millions of dollars worth of material every year; she is able to realize that at a very small outlay because she has in her grip—at her finger's tip.

England brings from Africa her ships laden with precious goods and stones, oils and raw products of all kinds because England has control of millions of blacks in her African possessions. Likewise with Belgium and Portugal and the other European countries that control portions of Africa. Why did Garvey get himself into trouble? Garvey came forward trying to awaken the black man not only in America, but trying to awaken the black man in Africa and everywhere to the consciousness of the mighty powers that he quiesces within him to the extent that the black man would take possession of his own lands and instead of turning millions of dollars into the coffers of the other fellow he would turn millions of dollars into his own gifts. If Garvey succeeds in awakening the black man to the consciousness of his duty to himself and his duty to his care, somebody loses. That somebody that is going to lose is ready to spill the last drop of their blood to see it that they do not lose that which they have been for several hundreds of years to build up. Don't forget that European nations have been for more than two hundred and fifty years dumping their money into Africa by the millions of dollars. European nations have been busy building dams in Africa, deeding buildings in Africa, building towns and cities in Africa, laying roads in Africa, they have been developing all Africa and making of Africa practically a great white nation. They are looking forward to the time when they will completely dominate the natives of Africa, they are looking forward to the time when they will completely open the natural resources of Africa. The Universal Negro Improvement Association, coming on the scene with its aim to curtail or to curb them in their efforts to get a iron grip in Africa, is bound to get itself into trouble, because if the U.N. L.A. succeeds they are not putting their labor, their genius in Africa for nothing. Do not expect that the Universal Negro Improvement Association is going to have easy selling. You need not be disappointed when you find that some of those who dare to lead you have gotten themselves into trouble, for we are just at the beginning of trouble, and unless those who lead or attempt to lead the farmers, I Negro Improvement Association are willing to show life and liberty to the wind they have no business at the heart of a great organization like this. A Dangerous Task The task that the Universal Negro Improvement Association has tackled is a dangerous task. The Universal Negro Improvement Association started out not for something somebody else does not want. We started out for the petite of the world. Every sovereign nation in the world loses eyes on Africa. Every sovereign nation in the world is looking forward to the time when they will own some of the natural resources of Africa. The great world war that started some ten years ago, although various causes were given for the precipitation of that great war, it really was a night for control and domination in Africa. Germany was about to get a grip on Africa which would threaten the power and control of France, England and Belgium, and it only took any kind of pretext to start the great world war because the other nations who saw Germany getting too firm a grip on the continent of Africa were not satisfied that they should be crowded out. The Prize of the World The Universal Negro Improvement Association has started out for the prize of the world. It started out to turn Africa back into the hands of the black man, and those who may control our destinies are as determined that Africa will not be turned back into the hands of the black man as we are that it shall. So you must keep daily, in mind all the time that you have started an uphill fight; you have started out, for something that somebody else wants; for something that not only you are working for but somebody else is working just as hard to see that you do not get. You need not be surprised, disappointed, or dismayed and drop heads when you find that some of us who try to carry on this great organization have gotten ourselves into trouble. Garvey Carve Not For Trouble But what cared Marcus Garvey for trouble? Marcus Garvey had fully counted the cost as he has told you from this platform several times. He knew the time, was coming when he would have to pay in offering for DR. M. N. W. NAKKON. P. O. Box 47, Hamilton Grove Station, NEW YORK CITY.

I will give you a cup of South America, enclose money with order (no stamps). the great idea he brought to you. He had a complete vision of the Negro and his place in Africa and those of you who are going to try to hold together the great organization he gave birth to must be as oblivious to suffering and persecution and slaughter as Marcus Garvey himself if you are to carry on this great work. They thought the Negro was not serious. I want to say that during these few days you have convinced the world that you are absolutely sincere when you show that you have started out for Africa and nothing between heaven and hell is going to stop you. They thought that when they removed Morous Glaves they had moved the message that threater to their interes but little did they know they are just beginning to inspire the Universal Negro Improvement Association to great things and great accomplishments. They tried to destroy, the organization by maligning the character and name of the leader; but they little know the kind of stuff of which the Negro is made. They are yet to be surprised, they are yet to be awakened to the fact that the Negro in the Universal Negro Improvement Association is indeed a new creature who has tuned his eyes toward Africa and nothing going to turn or deter his onward march until he reaches the objective that he started out for. If the movement that Garvey has built up is not able to live beyond the passing of Garvey, the movement amounts to little or nothing. If the thing Garvey has worked for for the or six years dies with Garvey, then Garvey has accomplished nothing. If the Irish cause had died with the first martyr, then the Irish cause would have amounted to nothing. If the Indian movement dies when Gandhi dies, then "the Indian movement amounts to nothing. If the member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association are going to lose heart and are going to be disturbed because our leader is removed, then the work and suffering of those who stood by the navigation for the last six years amounts to nothing. The Price of Leadership That thank God you can destroy great movements by imprisoning leaders. All leaders have found themselves in the same predicament of suffering. Mac Swiney came forward to lead by people and found himself storytelling to jail. Christ came forward with a new principle, and found Him on the cross. It seems that mankind little know how to appreciate its leaders at the time those leaders serve it seems that mankind most remove from a total contagion the great examples of new principles and new doctrines to appreciate their service and their contribution. And likewise it is going to take the Negro one of two generations removed from the great genius and origination of the organization to easily appreciate what he has given to humanity at large. We Must Carry On Let me say to you we must carry on; we must hold together what Marcus Garvey has given to our care and keeping, for if there is anything that would break his heart in Atlanta, it would be the fact that the great cause he nurtured with his spirit, the great organization he gave birth to, was not able to hold together until he returned at the helm. The Universal Negro Improvement Association needs "Marcus Garvey; it must have Marcus Garvey. We do not feel that his work is yet completed. God has yet more revelations to give to us through that brain of his and we are simply working and struggling here for a few days praying and hoping and doing our best in order that when he come back we will give to him a greater organization than he left when he went to Atlanta. A Stroke of Providence I do not know but what his going to Atlanta is not one of God's ways of helping us to work out this program. Marcus Garvey is a hard worker; he is an untriving worker. He has energy that we sometimes wonder from whence it comes; he works both day and night; for the program, o: this great Negro race. There are only three places that Marcus Garvey goes—that is, his home, 66 West 138th street and Liberty Hall. I sometimes wonder how he held up and how he could stand the strain; I do not know but what God had not been wondering the same thing and that he decided that. Garvey at last needed a little rest. Who knows but what after a few months when Garvey has had a choice to sit quietly and rest his mind and dream and think, that he will come back to New York a more "terrible Garvey" then he was when he left. (Applause.) Let us hope and trust that everything that now confronts the Universal Negro Improvement Association is for the best and let us hope and pray that the great God who inspired Marques Garvey and gave him this great program and whom Garvey himself said was leading him on, is still directing the forces of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and overlying the beings upon us is for the good of this great organization. Let us re-readable at this particular time our determination to fight and struggle on. Let us re-readable at this time our allegiance to the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and let us resolve to carry on—carry on until the day arrives when 100,000,000 Negroes, because they have been willing to suffer and sacrifice—because they have had vision and foreseen, will be able to sing together under their own flag, in their own company, Ethiopia. Their Land of our fathers. No Tims for Tears This is no time for tears and woeing, but this is a time for every individual office of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and every member to re-dedicate himself to the work of the organization, and to the work of the Negro face and stand shoulder to shoulder until we have brought about the great dream given us by Marcos Garvey, our leader. MRS GARVEY SPEAKS Mrs. Amy Jacques Garvey was the last speaker. She began by requesting the chairman, Mr. Weston, to raise the ban on hand-draping during the meeting. She realized how difficult it was for the members to suppress their feelings of appreciation of what was laid from the platform and thought that Mr. Garvey himself wouldn't be in favor of the audience sitting quietly under a ban of hand-draping or other visible means of appreciation. Garvey Day to Be Observed Her next suggestion was that the first Sunday in each month he observed as "Garvey Day" among all the branches of the organization through out the world until his release from prison. This, she said, would, in her opinion, be a reminder to Negroes all over the . . . that Garvey is in prison and that we are thinking of him and working out the program that he has left us. She suggested that, on the first Sunday in March, there be two big meetings in Liberty Hall at whose telegrams of appeal be sent to the President of the United States and she hoped that all the members would turn out and bring their friends no matter whether they were for or against Marcy Garvey. Her next request was that the sympathizers of Marcus Garvey should re-train from sending letters to him to Atlanta prison, as the volume of mail received there would entail too much trouble on the authorities. She suggested that any letters for Mr. Garvey be sent to his residence where they (contained on page 5) PE·RU·NA FOR COUGHS & COLDS Backed by Over Half a Century of Success in the Treatment of Catarrh and Catarrhal Conditions Sold Everywhere Tablets or Liquid The Negro World does not knowingly accept questionable or fraudulent advertising.

LETS PUT IT OVER SOVIET RUSSIA AS A DISTURBING NATION RICHARD WASHBURN CHILD was a gifted writer even in his college days at Harvard, and since he has been Ambassador to Italy his grace and aptness of phrase has not deserted him. He is probably our best-informed and keenest observer of European conditions. In a recent number of the Saturday Evening Post he calls the Russian Soviet Government the cuckoo of Europe. The cuckoo, he explains, is a bird that makes a lot of trouble by laying its eggs in other birds' nests instead of its own. He says that the Russian Soviet does this, that it is less concerned with developing Russia than with spreading the communistic idea over all the world. Secretary Hughes has often been criticized for his refusal to recognize the Russian Soviet. It has been said that he is keeping Russia's trade from this country. But it appears that the nations that have recognized the Soviet have got nothing for it in the way of trade. England, France and Italy, for all their courtesy to Moscow, have got no more trade from her than America has. It appears, moreover, that there is no trade to get. Sovietism has paralyzed what trade there was and has driven the business men out of the country. Mr. Child says that the population of Russia, which before the war was 180,000,000, has dwindled to 70,000,000 or less, and that this remainder is more downtrodden than it was in the days of the Czar. Murder and famine have been the chief fruits of the Soviet regime. Mr. Ramsay MacDonald was no sooner tricked into recognizing Moscow than Russian agents began flooding London with Bolshevist propaganda, even urging the British army and navy to mutiny and take the government in their own hands. Thus it appears that Secretary Hughes knew what he was doing. Soviet Russia has not kept faith with Europe or America, and until she shows a disposition to do so should be distrusted, by those countries which she has betrayed in war and in financial matters, and in which she has striven to propagate the sort of civil and economic confusion she has in her own country. We believe that the doing away with the Czarist and Priest government of Russia, and the substitution of government of the people, was a necessary innovation, and will ultimately work out for the benefit of the whole people of Russia, as the same sort of innovation worked out for the French people following the confusion and horrors of the French Revolution, but this will not come about until the Russian people take hold of their own affairs and attend to them, instead of leaving them in the hands of a few shrewd demagogues. OPPORTUNITY TO SUCCEED IS EVERYWHERE THE career of Daniel G. Reid, the New York financier, who died recently, is an object lesson to those who say that a poor boy has no chance in America, who decry the capitalistic system without knowing what capitalism really means. Daniel G. Reid started life as poor as any of us. He worked fourteen hours a day, his wage was $12.50 a month, and he walked four miles to work every day. He had far less chance than the Socialists and Communists who deplore their lack of opportunity and call Heaven to witness the blessings of Sovietism. We often wonder what these people want, anyway. They assail our capitalistic organization, yet under that same organization they are better fed, better clothed and better housed than they would be anywhere else in the world. Let them compare their comforts with the poverty of the common man in Russia, where the Soviet has full sway. Capitalism may have its evils, but they are heaven itself when contrasted with the bloodshed, famine, and utter hopelessness of Russia. There are plenty of evils in capitalism, but until we find a better system we should make the most and the least of it, each for himself in the place where he is. For instance, let the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in every community count the people and find out how much they buy and how much they sell among themselves, and they will find that they buy and sell mostly to white traders, who make two profits, the one on buying what you have, and another on selling you what you want to buy. You have nothing but what you buy and that is soon eaten or worn to shreds. So it goes. Let us get busy and buy and sell among ourselves as much as possible. That idea lies the profit.

A few words about politeness in general will be timely. Saying "Thank you" is so easy, yet so many of us in our rush, to no particular place, forget to say it. When you trample on someone's foot and say, "I'm sorry," it should prevent an argument. The foot hurts just the same, but when the offender offers apology with a smile, nine cases out of ten the apology is accepted. Then, too, there is no price tag attached to good manners, and polite people always show evidence of fine breeding, as good manners begin at home. We speak of the church altar and the family altar, but there is a social and business altar. Politeness in society is expected, but in business is often forgotten among associates and employees. One of the assets of good salesmanship is the manner in which you approach your customer, and whether the customer makes a purchase or not, the-good-salesman always thanks the customer for the attention given. There are many instances where an employee is exceptionally courteous to the timekeeper and paymaster, but forgets the janitor who has a clean office for him in the morning. To stop once in a while and ask elderly people how they feel, although they may not seem to have an ailment, is appreciated in most cases. Politeness is not so much, "I thank you" as a kindly deed now and then. Even if it does not seem to be appreciated, the same kindness will be returned to you in another way, for which you will not be sorry. Just ask yourself if you have been as considerate with all your coworkers, whether at home or at work, as you might have been, and check up on yourself. It will not do any harm and may benefit you. WASHINGTON, D. C.-The School of Public Health of Howard University in its attempt to serve in the largest possible way, has inaugurated a course of lectures for the colored social workers of Washington. The will to do this important bit of service has been stimulated by the earnest and frequent requests of this local group of workers. This is but the beginning of a larger program which the School of Public Health and Hygiene contemplates projecting. A deparment of social service leading to a collegiate degree was originally placed in the comprehensive plans of the School of Public Health. Unquestionably there is a need for training efficient social workers along broad lines which combine humanitarian with scientific principles, and this is the aim of Howard University. Among: the lectures are the following: Dr. A. O. Jackson, director of the School of Public Health and Hygiene; Prof. A. S. Beckham, professor of Psychoiology; Dr. Benjamin Karpman, professor of Psychiatry; Dr. Mary Fitch, professor of home economics; Dean Kelly Miller, dean of the Junior College; Prof. W. S. Nelson, professor of religious education; Professor Jones, professor of sociology, and Miss Emily Dinwide. Religion Fails to Keep Men Out of Jail LOS ANGELES. — Surveys among prisoners in the Los Angeles County jail indicate that there is something wrong with present educational and religious methods. In the opinion of Raymond I. Turney, director of the Los Angeles Crime Commission, he expressed this view at a recent meeting of the Southern California Academy of Criminology. Seven per cent of the inmates of the county jail, Mr. Turney said, were college graduates, as against 64% per cent in ordinary civil life; 124% per cent of the prisoners had college training; 45 per cent were high school graduates, compared with 25 per cent outside the walls. All the prisoners agreed, added Mr. Turney, that there had been a lack of moral training and a defect of character building training in the schools, and that the same thing was true of the religious, a majority of which were represented. Mr. Turney declared that most of the prisoners' concurred in the belief that habitual criminals should not be allowed to bring children into the world. All believed in punishment, he continued, but favored institutions where prisoners could be employed in producing some commodity. EDITORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PRESS The aim of every newspaper should be to cast aside the worthless, the suggestive, and vicious, and put in their place that which is informative, reliable, unprojuged and helpful. Of course, there will always be the scavenger dealer and sewer cleaner, but the family newspaper should be something one is not ashamed of—either in home or office. "Detroit Independent." We all love a doctor who brings us 10 per cent. of medicine and 90 per cent. of cheer. "Omaha Monitor."

Lincoln's Only Son Old And Ill in Washington WASHINGTON. Feb. 12 (U. P.):—Abraham Lincoln's son, Robert Todd Lincoln, now in his eighty-second year, is falling in health. The doors of the quaint old Colonial house here where he lives with his wife are closed to all except his most intimate friends, and behold them he passes his declining years in the strict exclusion prescribed by his physicians. Lincoln's major activity is corresponding with historians and publicists who write him to inquire for details of his father's life. In this he is extremely painstaking and has the aid of one of the most complete collections of books and documents on Abraham Lincoln in the world. The bearded old man, the last living link with the great emancipator, is very modest about his heritage and his own career, which included a cabinet post, four years as minister to England and high places in the business world. His mind is still very alert, and though not actively in business since his retirement in 1916, he still remains a member of the board of the Pullman company and of several Chicago banks. Mr. Lincoln has never written a life of his father and probably never will. Before he injured a leg he was an ardent golf player. Astronomy now monopolizes his spare time as his hobby. His last public appearance was at the dedication of the Lincoln Memorial in 1822. A Florida Estimate of Mr. Garvey and His Work From the Florida Sentinel Every time we are just about to conclude that we will hear no more of the provisional president of Africa and the president-general of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, up bobs the math, and always in a new and unexpected place. Writing to the New York "Independent." Eric Waldroud avows that Mr. Garvey's influence is increasing and the end is not yet. Clearly the end is not yet. Anybody who can hold out any hope of the black folk escaping their oppression and can establish that hope on an international scale as Mr. Garvey has done, is going to hold a commanding position in the ranks of the outstanding men of the time. Mr. Garvey never was the joke many take him to be. It is time that we were taking him seriously either to go with him solidly or to go against him solidly. Another thing all of us should learn, as it is this type of experience that calls forth cooperation within the group that is the necessity for organised efforts along all lines. Say what we will or may, our life is so complicated that frequently we will find it necessary to call upon the individuals from whom we have held aloof, and we will find that they can be of inestimable service. Commenssence ought to tell us to thoroughly organise so that in any emergency we can express the will of our group in no uncertain terms — "Washington Tribune." Prove by your arguments that you have no advantage and are not meeting day, but are meeting that the recognition many others alike is to be assured so long as there is no failure. Now when the happy{(\underline{on)}p�ing key and the with it the kind to which they result, would create, please the of the best, from the same way may provide a good job. How They Achieved Their Independence and Preserved It - Helped the American Colonies to Achieve Independence When the Republic of Hayti is mentioned, so few people seem to know where it is located or confuse it with its twin sister, the Republic of San Domingo, that a few words of geographical and historical import may not be amiss. In the year 1652, when Christopher Columbus, after a long and perilous journey, once more set foot on solid land he found himself on an island inhabited by Indians. This island, which is located at the entrance of the Gulf Stream, midway between Cuba and Jamaica, was called by the aborigines by the double name of "Haiti" or "Quisqueys," meaning, respectively "Mountainous country" or "Big Land." Five chieftains governed the island under the title of Kakik, the Indian word for king. King Guacanagarle governed the Marion in the Northwest; King Guarionx ruled the Magua in the Northeast; Kings Cotubanama and Bohchelo presided over the Higuey and the Xaragua, situated in the Southeast and Southwest, respectively; and, most impressive figure of all, the heroic Caonabo, first defender of the Haytian soil, reigned over the Maguana amid the fastnesses of the frowning Cibao. Within seven years from the landing the Spaniards in Haytli the native population had been reduced from an estimated million and a half souls to about 700,000. Farming and mining, the two sources that had been filling the royal coffers of Spain, were almost at a standstill. To insure the, continued prosperity of the colony and contribute to that of the metropolls, slaves were imported from the coasts of Africa. Four centuries later the descendants of those slaves revolted against the joint-oppression of France and Spain. Toussaint L'Ouverture, of immortal faine, le thémé from slavery to emancipation; and having ejected the Spaniards and repulsed the English, swore undivided allegiance to France. When Toussaint's devotion to France was rewarded with betrayal and martyrdom, one of his former lieutenants, Jean-Jacques Dessalins, stirred up a general insurrection against French domination, and on January 1, 1864, solemnly proclaimed the independence of his people and forged them into a nation. The Spanianards of 1492, discarding the Indian names of Haiti and Quisqueya, had rechristened the island "Hispaniola," Little Spain. They had founded a capitol, first to the north, then to the south of the island, to which they gave the name of Isabela. The former had been destroyed by Canonado, king of the Maguana; the latter was destroyed by an earthquake. Rebuilt by Nicolas Ovando, the first Spanish governor, it was rechristened Santa Domingo, in honor of Christopher Columbus' father, Domingo Colombo. The riches and magnificence of this city became such that its fame spread all over Europe and it became customary to say "Let's go to San Domingo," instead of "Let's go to Hispaniola." When the political independence of the island had become an accomplished fact, Desalinas, the librator, and his lieutenants, decided in solemn conclave that, to wipe out the last vestige of foreign domination, the appellation, "Hispaniola," would be dropped and the Indian name Hayti reassumed. While the young and unfledged nation was yet exposed to the dangers attendant on premature birth, while it was still in the throes of re-adjustment, the eastern portion of the island, comprising the city of San Domingo, recanted, invited the renewed domination of Spain, thereby imperiling the existence of the western portion, now officially known as the Republic of Hayti. Toward the end of the first decade of Haytiian independence they proceeded to establish a government of their own: But the brunt of the great insurrection, which culminated in the general freedom from foreign domination, the subsequent negotiations and the payment of indemnities fell on the people of the western or Haytiian portion alone. Through the misapprehension that their retention of the name San Domingo has fostered in the minds of most people, the people of the eastern portion credited with having furnished the "San Domingo Legion" which under Count D'Estaling, volunteered their services to the American Revolution. In reality it was the westerner, the annotators of the present-day Reynolds, who distinguished themselves at Savannah, Georgia. Those were not urging slaves dragged thither by the will of a master, but Black and white mutinees freedmen who had received a liberal equation in France, and were guilty of offenses of their dignity as men. Such men as Alexander Potts, Samuel Riggs, Richard Christophany, and others then were already plunging their, but desgraced executing their subjugation, but delivered their own salvation to come in the contempt of the American Empire because the prophecy for which those were fathers had grounded in their being a resurrection that would not be denied or interrupted. Such them to Marry. One of such Riggs Regulably had simply in consequence an honor of the Christian life.

SOCIAL MISFITS From Kansas City Call Many of the persons who commit crimes of violence excuse their acts on the ground of good intentions. The murderer who kills because another man tried to steal "his woman," or his bet from off the gambling table, has a warm glow of righteousness as he pulls the trigger. What he lacks is a life program against the evil for which he attempts a momentary corrective. Promiscuous sex relations are against the good, of society. Whether covertly as common-law marriages, or boldly as lewdness, they are to be discouraged. The man whose girl, not his wife, is sought after by another, and the woman who is similarly associated with a wavering lover, have not sought the sanctity of the law of the church. But once their "rights" are endangered, they indignantly rush to defend them. Their defense is by violence and outside the law. just as the relation they seek to protect is outside the law. The idea of a person protesting against somebody "stealing" his bit from the gambling table! The whole system of gambling is wrong. It is a non-productive business, except for the making of Bandits. Yet the gambler "protecting" his money, feels downright righteous when some associate steals his bit. He shoots or he cuts, and then sucks out long dreary day-in-prison, feeling he is a much abused man. Co-operation is one of the most discussed subjects among farmers and agricultural extension workers in the country today. One can scarcely pick up a farm paper, or any newspaper for that matter, without finding an interview, an article, or a reference to cooperation. It is looked upon as the cure-all for the lills of agriculture. We are often led to believe that it is something new—that it represents a new idea. But such is hardly the case. Co-operation is as old as farming itself, and in the old days it was practiced with fully as much benefit as may be derived from it today. In the days when grandfather raised a barn or house and called in all the neighbors to help; in the days when there were corn husking bees, quilting parties, and the threshing and other big jobs were done by the neighbors in return for help that grandfather gave them, co-operation was mentioned little but practiced much. Today much is said about it, but in practice it does not seem to be quite so evident. Everyone thinks that co-operation means HEALTH TOPICS By DR. B. S. HERBEN Of the New York Tuberculosis Association Health Value of Routine Did you ever read that delightful story of SandraBurg's to your children? It starts off something like this: The chimney sits on top of the house and lets the smoke out. The door knobs open the doors. The windows are either open or shut. We are either upstairs or downstairs in this house and everything is the same as it always was. If you can scare up a child as an excuse for yourself, go find one and read that story! It seems to me that mothers are always a tiny bit thankful that school has begun, and though it is a tearful day for the young mother who has sent the child for the first time, nevertheless, there is a certain relief in knowing that the boy or girl is in "one place" for at least a dew-hours and under the watchful eye of a responsible person. Fathers and mothers Geographically, a near neighbor of the United States of America; morally, a generous, big-hearted people, as evidenced by many an instance in her national history.

But it would be a wonderful advantage if momentary goodness could be lengthened out. If the indignation of the lovers at the failure of their scheme of things, and of the gamblers at dishonesty, could only animate them all the time, there would be no triangles, no tangled affection, no killings. Society is paying a huge price in money for its failure to teach these primitive minds the logic of living. It is letting them make their own beginning in life the wrong way, and then clapping, them in prison when for a moment they attempt to have things go the right way. Certainly, stealing is wrong. And no one knows it better than he who has made a practice of it. It seems almost unfair that he must indignant over his own being stolen and for a moment is on the side of the right, that his administration of justice should run afoul of the law. No one knows the value of virtue better than those who yielled it up. Life's realism is drawn upon by some playwrights to teach lessons, a tendency notable among the French. We wish we could get these exponenta of realism whose names occur so often on the police blotter, to tell their inner thoughts, to us, and that we had the power to give them another chance after showing them how momentary goodness, if only it is lengthened out, would make their lives full and happy. big, organization, marketing on an international scale, developing business from far away places. But before co-operation can be entirely successful on the grand scale imagined and hoped for by all of us, it must be practiced carefully in each community. Any national co-operative marketing plan must be founded on many small successful co-operatives. And to make these ventures successful in a small way, it is necessary to apply a little more of the attitude that grandfather and his neighbors cultivated so well. Co-operation, merely means the application of many hands and brains to a single task. It demands from each individual a willingness to help, a loyalty through thick and thin, and a certain amount of compromise. To be a good co-operator one must be willing to set aside a few of his own opinions occasionally and adopt a few of the other fellow's ideas. In other words, to be successful in these new co-operative cultures, we must be willing to take a lesson from grandfather now and then. have frequently confided to me that their children are better physically when the routine of school work begins and the regular hours can be scheduled. It is natural that this should be so. When the children are racing all day—and did you ever stop to think that you could not keep up the activities that they indulge in so long as they do—busy with their games, their self-imposed tasks, their excitements, they use up more energy than most mothers can replenish with milk, eggs, vegetables, and these other foods! During school, they sit quietly while they exercise their brains. This used energy to be sure, but at least the muscles are resting. It is well to have the regulated homes in which everything goes on in the same old way. This is soothing to the developing nervous systems of children. It is important. In homes where everything is haphazard, where bedtime is any time, where mealtime is approximately only, where there is no peace, not a moment for restfulness, there is nervousness, unhappiness, ill health and unusually premature sorrow. Make dependable rules for certain things like rest, eating, bathing and—quiet, talks with dad or mother. Be consistent in discipline. Let there be the smoothness which comes from planning and living up to the plan. Routine is essential for infants and necessary to the best interests of children, and good for parents.

There has been much discussion about the emphasis which our colleges place upon the dead languages, and within the last ten years. Latin and Greek have been pushed down the scale a bit. But it seems to me even more important that teachers should be urged to turn from the dead to the living arts. In the great majority of secondary schools and colleges literature is still presented to the students as something which flourished through the centuries and then came to an abrupt end more than a hundred years ago. In few classrooms will anybody get the notion that great men walk the world today and set down words worthy to be heard. Instead of this enlivening fact, the young men and the young women are taught that writing, like Chinese pottery, is an art, which has been lost. In the lecture halls there comes to the listener a fear and a foreboding that the thing can never happen again. Poetry is the property of dead men. Fielding created the novel which fanned up and subsided. Of course, this manner of instruction offers certain solicite to the men who sit in the high and endowed chairs. After a professor has learned his subject he may lean back and take his ease. Over and over again, year after year, he may reach into a vest pocket and dangle his crystals before the class and in the autumn out will come these same clear, hard stratifications of knowledge so that others may learn and go out into the world with the ordained facts and names. It is convenient to conceive the literary universe, as limited and composed wholly of fixed and burned out stars. No man begins to teach until he is a little weary of learning. But a doctorate is not a dam upon which one may sit, and contemplate pooled waters. There are new things to be said in new ways and no reservoir is sufficient to contain them all. In out of the way places springs start up. Rivers not yet mapped or regarded roar and gurgle. The ideal professor of English literature ought to be on call like a country doctor, and have at his doorway a day and a night bell. Probably the greatest service which George Pierce Bakgr has performed is the conviction which he has loosened that the drama is a living art. Because Shakespeare wrote divinely it did not mean that after him there should be no more plays. No great plays came out of English '47 while Baker was at Harvard, but there were good ones and if it was enough that there were plays at all. Before the workshop was founded a certain mystery surrounded the business of devising entertainments for the stage. Playwriting was a cult and there was no method by which apprentices might be admitted. I think that all those who studied with Baker found that while the difficulties of writing magnificently had not been exaggerated, there was no great trick simply in doing a play. This is an entirely normal form of expression. You can write a play in precisely the same manner in which you write a letter. The man who has something to say need not tremble and prostrate himself before that fearsome word "technique." I am quite aware of the fact that the average play is a terrible thing. I have seen, now, a number of manuscripts submitted for the Golden contest and most of them are pretty bad. But they are not bad because the authors stumbled over some intricate set of rules of composition. These plays are dull because, for the most part, they represent no shrewd or close observation of Then turned into nervous, chest motion picture theater or even conversation they would still be bad. If I had an English class, God would. I think I should begin by glittering out to the pupils their great good luck in living in a day of Lengthy Good and Kilky silly. Certainly I would tell dramatic students that they were acting pretty to happen along in the age of Shaw, Barrie, Gahwerthy and Orlskew. And I'd ask them to be a little thankful, too for George Kelly and Frank Craven. Most of our collegiate education is still Christian; in semblance at least, and that creates a curious paradox. The students go to chapel and are told that the greatest Man who lived in the world will surely come again. And from the chapel they march to a lecture hall to hear that Shakespeare lived and died and that there can never be another. Even the Fundamentalist schools are aligned with miracles. They split the personality of the pupils by insisting that there shall be a lively belief in extraordinary happenings in the land of Palestine, but beyond its borderation only the dull record of a universe of miserable sinners. I confess a heretical feeling toward English literature. Having talked and glowed about "Tom Jones" for a full fifteen years after leaving college I decided to read the novel once again. I found it dull stuff and hard going. There are at least twenty books and ten in the last ten years which interest me more. And why don't the college study Kipling? He almost qualifies even under academic standards, for there seems every reason to believe that the man who wrote "Kim" is definitely dead. Thackeray, Dickens, Fielding and Smollett, did any one of them ever write a novel half so good? Not if I'm the one you're asking. The delusion that writing is definitely controlled by the conscious intellect seems to peralst. Here in America several million of us believe that Rudyard Kipling is a jingolistic and imperialistic as in all his political views. And for that reason we are prepared to forget Mowgill and the man who would be king. There's no sense in that. And why shouldn't a college English class study Booth Tarkington, and Ring Lardner, and some of Harry Leon Wilson? When my millions go to an endowment one class will. That will be the job of the Heywood Brown Professor of Living, Literature. (Copyright — New York World — Press Publishing Company, 1925.) MARCUS GARVEY knows best and that it may be in the plan for him to be removed from active service at this particular time. There is a pessimism, no grief, no despair among the apostles of Garveyism. They believe that the organization is sound enough to cope with any situation with which it may be confronted. They know that their leader will continue to serve them even unto death. He has blazed the trail thus far and the army will move on regardless of what comes. Wherever the man may be, incarcerated or free alive or dead, the soul of Marcus Garvey will continue to inspire those who are determined to carry on to success in spite of ridicule, disappointments and humiliations.

Mrs. Garvey next stated for the benefit of those who had loaned money to make up the $15,000 bail on which Mr. Garvey had been released pending his appeal, that the public prosecutor had, up to the present time, refused to sign the necessary order that was customary in such cases in order to obtain a redeemment of the money. The matter was however in the hands of attorneys who would take the proper steps before the judicial authorities to bring about this result. Garvey is Cheerful Continuing, Mrs. Garvey said: I suppose most of you who were not in the hall during this week when I returned from Atlanta would like to know how Mr. Garvey is getting on. I got two telegrams from him yesterday and he is quite cheerful. He said: "Do not forget to tell Liberty Hall that I hope they are going over the top." So he is remembering Liberty Hall seven where he is and wants you to be perfectly cheerful. I was on the same train all the way down to Atlanta and visited him the next day in the prison. He was perfectly cheerful and saw me in the reception room. He is studying French and had just been to the library and got his books. He wants you to feel that his continuation in person is no nausea to him. The only thing that would make him miserable at this time was if he believed that tonight Liberty Hall had a scant audience; then he would feel that he was forgotten. While on the train on his way to Atlanta, Mr. Garvey asked me whether I thought the members would forget him. I assured him that they could not. You cannot forget him if you tried because he has typified the best that is in the Negro, and when you try to bring out the best that is in you, then you must remember Garvey and his teachings. The Cause Can Never Die The Universal Negro Improvement Association can never die and may God, grant, that Garvey will not die in Atlanta prison. God in his good providence may have disposed that Garvey should go there and I believe it is the plan of destiny, for if Garvey were not in Atlanta prison this great crowd I see here may not have been present. Many of you have stayed here, when Garvey was here, feeling that everything was all right, but now that he is gone you make it a point to come to see that things go right. After making some observations as to Mr. Garvey's alacrity and conscientiousness in pursuing the work of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, Mrs. Garvey went on to say that Marcus Garvey had a message to give to the world; he had a duty to perform, therefore no matter how he suffered he realised he had to do his Master's bidding. He has given the message, he has done his work; he has performed his task and he has left it to the members of the organization to carry on. "Are you going to carry it on?" she asked and the audience replied in unison. "Yes; surely." That she message, she continued. "I want to tell the people have lost the value of a white life; they have the dignity calls for a white life; they have Just Off the Press Twentieth Century Maintain Bicycle police—A book for go-girlers; contains over one hundred new business plans and advertisements.

We have nothing to fear; we are a law-abiding, honest, earnest, upright group of people. We do nothing that is wrong and therefore our consciences are clear and we go about our business for peace, uplift and for the redemption of Africa. We have no time to stop to hate white people as some people think; we are too busy living our own lives and trying to unite our race together. I appeal to you to carry on the work of the organization and support the committee that is left in charge. These officers that are left in charge are doing their very best in the interest of the organization and it is your duty to support them. They are going to do what is right by you and by the organization. I do not think there is one among them that would break the solemn vow that they took from this platform.

December 28 is the birthday of the late Madame C. J. Walker, and as such was very widely celebrated, both by her many thousand agenith through this and many foreign countries and by her friends and acquaintances who admired her work and the good she accomplished. To commemorate the 50th birthday of this woman of our race memorial services were held in more cities, Indianapolis, where she was first security to wealth and power, leading the list. At the Y. M. C. A., to which she gave the first thousand dollars toward its present building, incidentally the first and highest gift of its kind at that time, services were held and a magnificent enclosed portrait of Madame C. J. Walker was unveiled and presented to the association before a large audience present to revere her memory. Mrs Frances Berry Coston, prominent christian, teacher and scholar and close personal friend of Madame Walker, outgathered her memory and paid glowing tributes to her life. In her address Mrs. Coaton said, among other things, Madame Walker was endowed with initiative, sympathy, ambition, understanding, and that rarest 'LOST VIGOR RESTORED IN 24 HOURS' "Glauca Removed in One Day" is the Amazing Statement of a 76-Year-Old Veteran Last vignette, doubled glauca and nerves, and that weak, worn-out, deprived and half-alive feeling need not be dreaded any more.

They coupled with a willingness for her life to be spent in the services of the race made her a marvel. Yet more, her career was a timely proclamation to Anglo-Saxon civilization, suggesting that the way cannot be obstructed; it was a message to the world that the Negro can reach America's highest standard; it was a direct challenge to the agreed door of opportunity. Commemorating the life of the late Madam. C. J. Walker, the following six portraits were given by Mrs. Custon. She was silent in the face of criticism; she raised no quarrels with her enemy; she had faith in herself and trusted divine guidance; she had confidence in people; she never forget her friends; she believed that charity was the greatest thing in the world. The Y. W. C. A. held special vape services and many friends and employees of the Madame C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company attended to do honor to their departed leader. Throughout the nation December 23 was celebrated by Madame C. J. Walker agents, clubs and individuals doing as she did at Christmas time, giving baskets filled with food and clothing to poor and needy families; fruits, candies, nuts and toys to orphan children; cool and wood for homes that need them and in other ways playing the Good Himalayan and bringing a ray of sunshine at Christmas time that the poor may be made happy, the sick may be comforted, and the orphaned made to feel that someone cares. POETS IN AFRICA ARE LOOKING UP A HEAP (From the African Messenger) Our Porta Corner has become quite a popular feature; and we print this week another very fine sonnet from the pen of "O. Dazi Aku," our old Ontitsa friend. Mr. Stuart-Young is rapidly winning his way to the front as a master of the sonnet. In the recent sea competition, open to all the world, he was one of the first dozen winners. In the city competition (Sonnets on the World's Cities) out of over eight hundred compilers, who chose places like London, New York, Moscow, Venice and Rome as their subject matter, Mr. Stuart-Young deliberately sought to immortalize Ontitsa. Even with that handicap, of having chosen a town which the board of judges had never before heard about, he won his way to inclusion among the first thirty winners. This is a wonderful achievement—the greatest writers of verse now alive took part in the contest; and Ontaha is to be congratulated on the enthusiastic, partisanship of her foster child, who declares that he can always produce his best work there.

Feb. 14, 1925.—Early in November the Madam C. J. Walker company opened on one of the most prominent business corners of this city a branch college of beauty culture with all modern equipment and highly competent instructors. Announcements of the opening brought students from several different States. After completing an extensive course in the various arts of beauty culture, twelve weeks of daily practice, and passing a severe final examination, graduating exercises for the first class were held here last week. A capacity crowd filled every available seat at Ebenezer Church, where the twenty-five graduates received diplomas. It was a gratifying picture to see this large group of our women there seated, dressed in white, their hair and complexion beaming with evidences of care to themselves even as they are prepared to give unto others, attentively listening to the commencement address by Attorney F. B. Ransom, general manager of the Madam C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company, who urged them to catch the vision of a larger, more useful life, and commended them for their step toward independent livelihoods. Invocation and remarks were offered by the pastor. Thesis on beauty culture were read by the graduates, encouragements were offered by leading business men, and musical numbers appropriately sandwiched in by some of Kansas City's best talent, completed the commencement exercises of this college's first class of '25. Fight for Negro Officers of the Fifteenth Regiment Growing in Popular Interest and Favor—Attend the Mass Meeting Equity Congress is having gratifying success in its campaign for all colored officers for the Fifteenth New York Infantry, but there is evidently some misunderstanding in regard to its petition. The Congress is waging a racial battle, not an individual one. The aim of the petition is to secure all colored officers for the regiment, now and henceforth. The petition recommends for promotion certain officers now in the regiment, but solely as a basis for "starting the ball rolling" and because the Congress believed that those men possess the proper qualifications to fill the offices. But the fight is for no specific individual or group of men. It is for a principle of right and justice that is to endure for generations to come. It matters not who may be assigned to the various offices, so long as they are members of the race and thoroughly qualified in every way. An article in last week's Amsterdam "News" by Hon. Pope B. Billips, counselor at law and assemblyman from the Twenty-first Assembly District, suggests that the country be combed to get the necessary number of capable and efficient officers for the regiment. A canvass by Equity Congress reveals that we have here in the various boroughs comprising the City of New York 180 colored men qualified under the military law of New York for appointment as officers, and that 22 of these men are qualified for field officers. We therefore have the required material right among us. The movement on the part of Equity Congress is being conducted by former military men—voters of the Spanish-American and World wars. Some of these men were commissioned officers, others non-commissioned officers, and still others were privates. The best citizens of both races are supporting the movement, and the Congress proposes to turn the spotlight of publicity on all opposition amanaging from a purely political source or from the desire to accomplish its defeat because, of disagreement with the campaign on account of some negligible point of petty detail. There are always men in public life who are willing, solely on the grounds of "political expediency," to cause the defeat of any movement for the betterment or advancement of the race. The Congress is fighting in the opam for a highly morterrious cause, and the public will be kept informed of all phases of opposition. A grand mass meeting to further this movement will be held Tuesday March 3, at the regular hall of the Congress, 143-144 West 123rd Street. In the main auditorium, at 3 o'clock p.m. Fifty-four prominent speakers have been invited, and personal have already definitely accepted. Former Governor Simon will positively be present. The public is cordially invited to attend and take part and help in this struggle that is being pursued on the behalf of the four state governments and industries. For further information regarding the accomplishments of the Congress, Municipality, and State Government, the public is invited to attend. NOW AT THE LAFAYETTE THEATRE SEVENTH AVE., AT 131ST ST.

The entire world is now informed of the imprisonment of Marcus Garvey, and the world also knows that Marcus Garvey is an honest man. During all his trials and persecutions he proved to the world that he is an honest leader, that he is endowed with the greatest asset of leadership—courage. A courage that did not flag when danger was imminent; a courage that knows no weakening even when the law tried to terrorize him. What manner of man is this? He is Marcus Garvey, who started a few years ago to arouse the sleeping consciousness of Negroes, to liberate them from their mental and economic serfdom. He was the very man who broadcasted the cry of "Africa for the Africans." He further told Negroes that these things could and should be done by black men and under the leadership of black men. Such a leadership was thrust upon him. The task of this leadership was a mighty one, but as a man who had the inspiration of Ancient-Ethiopia burning in his soul, he rushed forward with a determination that knows no compromise, and took on the gigantic task of leading our oppressed race out of peonage. When he preached his doctrine to the world, men called him: crazy, men called him a dreamer; but, didn't these very men mete out the same punishment to Christ, to Martin Luther, and to every other leader who expounded a new doctrine? Marcus Garvey's task was really a gigantic one. Toussaint was a wonderful general, Denmark Vessey was a mighty leader; but what of them? Toussaint sought to free the Negro of his country, Vessey tried to free the slaves of America; but Marcus is greater than Toussaint and Vessey together, for he sought and tried not to free the Negroes of Haiti and America, but the 400 million of the world. Men among his own race fought him, they attacked him from right, from left and from the rear, but amid all the showering of attacks, he never halted. He withstood the taunts, he survived amid every difficulty, every handicap. His Idea, propagated with the seal of a born leader, seized the hearts of Negroes far and near, even as a mighty forest fire. When Marcus Garvey started out he was a single Garvey, but the doctrine he preached was such a needed, one that today we have not only one Garvey but many Garveys. It was the belief of the enemies that by holding Marcus Garvey up to ridicule he would lose the confidence of the people, hence the end of his ambition to lead an oppressed race. Mr. Enemies, you are crazy; you have counted without your host. You are late, Mr. Enemies, too late, is the cry, for though you have succeeded in imprisoning Garvey's body, you have let lose his spirit, which is burning at this time in the hearts of millions of Negroes, and nothing shall eradicate that spirit until 400 million of us shall have been free. Though you imprison Garvey, the fight for our emancipation and our lib- very shall continue until victory is achieved. These very ammonies who are trying to destroy us will in three daysy themselves, become evil against Saviour, Saviour, Among our examples there are Negroes who unknowingly are working for their own destruction; but before, time grows much older, then very Negroes will have to pray for a purification of their soul, even as did Judas Iscariot. Did the Protestant religion die with the death of Martin Luther? Did the death of Christ kill Christianity? I say, no, emphatically no! You may kill the expounder of a new doctrine, but you can never kill a religious principle after that principle has been firmly implanted in the lingering hearts of a suffering people. From the day the world realized the seriousness of Marcus Garvey's program; certain people have been fighting him, with the hope of chalenging the "tiger" so that Negroes might not be restored to their ancient glory, so that Negroes might not possess that which morally and legally belongs to them. AFHCA—Had Garvey not cried "Africa for the Africans" he would have been out of prison today. They arrested him and convicted him for using the mails to defraud. They believed that by such a method, they would defeat his purpose of a free and redeemed Africa. They failed in their purpose, because. Negroes believed Marcus Garvey to be honest. They demonstrated it by giving to his 125 thousand-dollars in six months to promote again a steamship line. When the enemies saw this, they finally concluded that Garvey should be sent to Atlanta, believing that by this latter method they would destroy the hopes and aspirations of an oppressed race. Oh, what fools these mortals are! They fail to realise that though Marcus Garvey is in prison, his soul is free and unblemished, and it shall lead 400 million Negroes on until there is a free and redeemed Africa. It does not matter what happens, we still believe in Marcus Garvey. Worry not Marcus Garvey, for we your supporters will carry on until you shall have been returned to us. They may shut you away from our view, but that does not matter, you shall continue to be our leader. To those who oppose you by unscrupulous acts, we know they shall be paid many fold, I tremble for them, when I remember that God is just, and that Hls Justice cannot sleep forever. Friends and members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, though some are too cowardly to show their hands, we know them, and when the history of this race is being written we shall send down their names to our next generation. Garvey met his fate calmly. Yes he has, because years ago he counted the cost of leadership and calculated on everything that has happened. Why shouldn't Garvey be contented? He should be, because his ideal at this time is the ideal of 11,000,000 Negroes. Yes, he should be satisfied, because to uproot his ideal will mean the destruction of civilization. Garvey has 'done his work well, and may peace clothe his soul.' Marcus Garvey, to you we extend our implicit confidence, and wherever your body or soul may be we say you are still our leader, and whereover your spirit leads we shall follow until victory in ours, and 460 million Negroes shall have been free.

OUR WOMEN and WHAT THEY THINK-Edited by Mrs. Amy Jacques Garvey WITHIN the last century thousands of men, and even women, have been sent to Africa by white churches and mission societies to Christianize and civilize the so-called heathen. Rum bottles have played as important a part as the Bible in the process of civilizing the poor native. The result is that after he imbibes the white man's firewater he is helpless to protect his property and land, which the good missionary hands over to the traders and teaches the native African to sing, "Oh! Take me as I am," and "Take all the world but give me Jesus." The white missionary is the forerunner of the trader in Africa. He paves the way for the exploiter and land-grabber. He plays on the innocence of the native until he gets him looking toward the pearly gates of the New Jerusalem; while his brother trader takes the African's gold and diamonds. Far-thinking Negroes in this Western world now realize the clichenery practiced on their brothers in Africa, and are determined that these things shall no longer be. Africa needs missionaries, 'tis true; but she needs black men and women who have mastered the sciences, literature and the art of modern government in this Western Hemisphere to go over and teach their brethren. Africa needs the plough instead of the rum bottle; she needs medical men with their medicines, instead of a preacher with a long coat. The vast continent of Africa, with untold mineral wealth, cries to black mining experts to come over and show them how to mine, the gold, platinum and diamonds, and teach them the value of precious stones. She needs schools and hospitals instead of "gospel houses." Mother Africa stretches out her bleeding hands to her lost sons and daughters and begs them to return home and restore her ancient glory. Our brothers in Africa are only contaminated by the hypocritical Christianity as preached to them by white missionaries. They need black men and women to teach them the true gospel of salvation as enunciated by our Lord and Savior, who came to earth to save all humanity. When Christ lived on earth as man, He went about doing good. He healed the sick and fed starving multitudes. He did not come preaching a gospel that He himself did not follow. His life was a living example of the truths He taught. Are the men who call themselves missionaries today following after the example of Christ? Are they practicing what they preach? No. They have fallen short of the glory of God, and no one suffers more from their sins and omissions than so-called backward peoples. Man cannot be successfully taught to look forward to mansions in heaven, when he has not where to lay his head nor proper food to eat. He must be fed, taught to live decently, and then of his own volition he will lift up his thoughts to God in praise and thanks, whether he be a Christian or a Mohammedan. Shakespeare puts it in the mouth of one of his characters to say, "Sweet are the uses of adversity," and we believe there is much truth in this reflection. The adversity of slavery could be made to bear sweets if Negroes could realize that after all there might have been some divine intention when so many Negroes were taken from their homes in Africa and brought to this Western world to work as slaves. They learned the "ins and outs" of the white man's civilization, the ways of peace and the methods of warfare. May we not hope that as they have been such good scholars here, they will become good teachers and carry back to Africa all the good they have learned of commerce, industry, science and good government? It is a duty incumbent on us to help those less fortunate than ourselves, and the blessings will return to us. The African at home has minerals and land that he does not know how to utilize, while the African abroad has the knowledge. Is it not clear, therefore, that there is a great necessity for co-operation and unity for the benefit of both? Those who cannot go can help others who are prepared to go. If the raw products of Africa are good for white people, surely they are good for Negroes. If Africa's untold wealth is the only salvation for bankrupt Europe, surely Africa must be the only salvation to a pauper rate, such as ours. It is the duty of every Negro, therefore, to help redeem Africa. The cry from Macedonia is, "come over and help us." Africa calls. Will you answer, "We are coming, Mother Africa"?

"Suffer the little children to come unto me and forbid them not, for of such is the kingdom of heaven." Sometimes we think that if the Master was here now, he would order some of the mothers to leave their chaps at home. We can not understand, to save our soul, what some mothers are thinking about when they beating their little crying baby to church and let it whine and cry and jump down and run around up and down the aisles and disturb the whole congregation by raising the devil in general. A mother who looks after her baby at home as a mother should do, will be able to keep it quiet in church. Mothers seem to forget that preaching is a business and those who attend the services hope to enjoy them. They pay for it, and they make the sacrifice to leave their homes, pay their dues and want to enjoy the services undisturbed; but if some little broad mouth brag is yelling and screaming and whining and muttering and jumping about, they are disturbed. People are deceitful. They will make over and tase the chap and call it cute to the mother and turn right around to others, and call it a "little ugly devil," and say about its mother what it should say to its mother. All mothers should leave their babies at home until they are sure that they behave. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1985 HEROIC WOMEN OF HAITI They Helped Achieve independence and to Illustrate the Humanities and Virtues of Their People Written for the Negro World By THEOPORA HOLLY The first womanly figure that confronts us on the threshold of Haytian history is that of Queen Anaconda, or Golden-Flower, slater to Bohochel, King of the Naragua, and widow of King Caonabo, the deported King of the Maguana. She is worthy of mention because, in a way, she was the prototype-after which the modern Haytian woman is moulded. Hers was the type of distinctively feminine womanhood, with no aspirations beyond that of diffusing happiness in the home-sphere, the cultivation or indulgence of literary tastes and, radiating all unknown to herself a charm so potent that the stranger who visits those shores hardly ever returns to his native hand to seek a bride. Such was Anaconda. While but a girl she was almost idealized by her people for her great beauty and her talent as a sambas or native poaenabo, a white or Carib Indian, from one of the neighboring islands, frequently landed on the shores of Hayt, bent on depredations. He fell in love with this talented princess and, not during to take her with him to his may-queening tribe, abandoned his people and threw his lot with the Red Indians of Quisquhela. Incidentally, he became the most energetic defender of the soil against the Spaniards; and after his deportation his lovely queen was traitorously arrested and taken to San Domingo, where she was hanged. So the same type of womanhood belonged her daughter, Higuenometa, who, being abandoned by the young Spaniard to whom she had wedded, grieved so much that her mind became unbalanced. Madame Toussaint L'ouverture laid no special claim to beauty. She was essentially a home-maker, devoted to her husband and children. In his diary the illustrious general confesses that it was her domestic qualities that influenced his choice of her as his mate. The heroic type of Haitian womanhood did not appear until consequent on the deportation of Toussaint L'ouverture to the dungeons of France, the struggle for liberty had entered on its acute and ultimate phase under the leadership of Jean-Jacques Desalagues. The demand being created, the supply instantly came forth in the form of determined women who fought side by side with their men, or like contigueries of the recent world war, supplied the combatants with ammunitions and nourishment. In that deadly struggle being carried on by slaves under the direction of leaders, very few of whom could either read or write, there was neither time nor possibility to keep a record. Only a few names have survived; names of women like Madame Maurepas, Sanite, Marie-Marie, etc. Madame Dessalines was not a heroine in the epic sense, but she was a great-souled woman, Victor Scholecher, the French historian, describes her as a woman of exceptional physical beauty and exceedingly kind-hearted. Her influence over her husband, whom his adversaries have labeled as a friend for cruelty, was great; and she always exerted that influence for good. Many a white slave-master owned his life to her intervention in his behalf at the time when the triumphant Dessalines had vowed the extermination of the last white person in the colony. Among these were Descourtilz, the great French naturalist, and one of his friends. They had fled to Madame Dessalines' cabin for safety, and protection. The kind-hearted woman hid them under her bed. Dessalines had just entered a moment to refresh himself when one of the fugitives let forth a mighty sneeze. Their retreat being discovered, only the great warrior's profound devotion to his wife save them from death. As it turned out they lived to regain their native shores and, with the characteristic frankness of the Frenchman, told the tale. Later, when comparative opulence had come to Madame Dessalines, she gathered into her home quite a number of homeless orphan-girls and gave them a mother's care. But, to me, the sublime woman whose name is recorded in the annals of our national history is La Dellee, the half-witted creature who rescued the dismembered body of the Liberator from the sacrilegious mob and laid it to rest. Tradition reports that she collected the remains in a strong bag and dragged them all the way to the cemetery. Whenever fatigue compiled her to rest by the wap she would clasp the gory bundle in her arms and croon a lullaby to the mangled remains of the marryred chiefman. What motives actuated her? Was it a shame from the enveloping aches of a dead romance or was it patriotic veneration for the man who had bid his brother into the Promised Land? That is a mystery. Personality, it think it was a miracle of love. However that may be, it is in this half-witted woman that the Maytians are indebted for the conservation of the handful of anes over which they have erected a marble handstand. It will be observed that the dominant traits of the Maytian woman are the humane qualification of sympathy, ten-dormant carried to the extreme. The woman conceived of the anes. It will be observed that the dominant traits of the Hayman woman are the feminine qualities of sympathy, tenderness, carried to the extremes. The types mentioned are superior planned from the pages of History, consequently admired. Nevertheless the Hayman Prof. Slowe Speaks Before Club of Prospective Deans WASHINGTON, D. C.-Misa Lucy D. Slowe, dean of women at Howard University, this city, made a plea before the women who are training to become deans of women under the direction of Dr. Sarah Sturtevant of Teachers College, Columbia University, for better race relationships between colored and white college; women of this country. Dean Slowe contended that only through the process of investigation, curiosity and open mindedness could white and colored people learn to know each other. Prejudice can be dislabeled by turning the light of knowledge upon those who suffer from it, as well as upon those who impose it. Dean Slowe said further that the college of the country should be places where students of all races would come together for the purpose of discovering that which is good in members of different racial groups in order that misunderstandings, due to ignorance, might not arise. She condemned the policy of excluding from an educational institution any person solely on the grounds of race. "A college should be one place in any country where individual worth and mental capacity would be the conditions of admission, and not racial identity," said Dean Slowe. "The world has a right to expect an educational institution to live up to its boasted principle of liberality and rationalism." she continued. Dean Slowe suggested that white and colored college women, in various communities should keep in constant touch with each other through frequent conferences on matters of common interest. They should lead the way in bringing about better race feeling through applying the method of investigation and information to the race problem instead of the method of evasion, indifference and ignorance. Dean Slowe, as president, of the National Association of Colored College Women, is attempting to effect a working basis between white and colored college women throughout our country. Women Produce Results From the New York World Do not be too severe on the napping wife. She is a great born to her husband. She is everlastingly nagging him to take care of his health. She produces results. Married men live longer than single men. Women have a right to dictate to their husbands about their health. Women live longer than men. Women live more hygienically than men. Women are far more courageous and determined in facing their health problems than men. More males are born than females but more women reach the century goal than men. The business of living, however, is quite as serious for women as it is for men. Every man and every woman should be examined at least once a year to find out just what their physical assets and liabilities are and the rules of healthful living they should follow. It is not only easy for men to prolong his years of activity and earning power, but it is also easy for a woman to prolong the years of her youthful charm, vivacity and magnetism. FRIENDSHIP I know of no art necessary to the proper conduct of life as the art of friendship. A friend of mine remarked, to me the other day that he made it a point to say nothing against another person when he knew aid to lose no opportunity to say something of benefit to that person. After that remark I thought of the popularity of that friend and his friendship covering a long number of years, and I said to myself: 'What a fine way to build a helpful character!' It is easy to speak well of another, to offer the help of an understanding nature, and to remember that we are of a great crowd of folks made alike in form and substance. We are all of uk craving for happiness, and the shortest road to happiness is to make some one else happy. There is no art in gaining at another's loss. Much of the art of friendship is concealed. It doesn't consist in talk, or demonstration. But in consideration, thoughtfulness and broad toleration. To a friend you do not have to explain. There is a spiritual thrill that comes to one on feeling that you have imparted to some one else a little of the beauty and loveliness of this earth that you have gathered to yourself. The earth through the divine plan of the Great Father gives to us each air, sunshine, shelter, warmth, for our bodies, and such a multitude of things out of which we may extract food and satisfaction to the senses and the soul that we ought to grow happier and happier every day—just for the privilege of Life. But the greatest privilege of all I believe is to have a friend—many friends—and to consent this friendship with others tighter and tighter all the days come and go. How wonderful just to walk and talk with a friend. woman of the present day is inherently the same, barring an added culture and intellectual development. In our next days we will portray the modern Maynard woman under the caption of "The Maynard Girl."

WORRY A SURE KILLER **Written for the Negro World** BY VIRGINIA·WESTON What is more disheartenting than to feel ill and worried and to consult a doctor only to be told: "Above all, don't worry"? Easily said, but difficult to do. Can the doctor know about your worries? "We all worry unnecessarily. It isn't that we want a portion of the earth or a brass band, but either business is on the flag, or the children need new shoes, or the roof needs painting, or the pain we felt while at work and thought was neglutious, turned out to be gull-stones or that he pays more attention to Jane than he, or the German police dog was not a thoroughbred, and endless other things. The things themselves don't really matter. It is worrying about them that does the harm. The constant gawning of worry gnaws and frays the nerves, upsets the temper, and unbalances the brain. It all amounts to a habit of mind which can be curred by training. Have you ever met folks with the most satisfied expression on their faces? They seem perfectly contented with themselves. They seem to be mastering their thoughts as is very plainly expressed on the counterance. Then you meet the person who seems to be saying, "I'm all right; the world's all wrong."

All these things tend toward the improvement of one's looks and disposition. contribute to upset the nervous system. The facts which cause worry cannot be changed; but the attitude of mind with which one meets them can be radically altered. The effects of worry can be withstood by looking facts unfinchingly in the face. We are all too apt to sidestep a difficulty instead of standing up to it. A friend of mine recently told me of going into bankruptcy and he said it was the worst thing that could have happened. "Well, go bankrupt. You won't be the first person. Every day someone goes bankrupt. The thing for you to do is to see how soon you can be erased from the list." My friend replied, "What will my friends say?

DIVISIONS For the Benefit of All Members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and Friends of Its President-General A LARGE SIZE PICTURE OF MARCUS GARVEY For Framing and Hanging in the Home, With His Autograph Signature, the Only Official Picture in Circulation With Copyright Four Square One News for 50 Cents, Published in the Part of the World MARCUS GARVEY New York On Sunday, Jan. 4th, 1920, the last harvest event festival services come off in this division. The program for the day was as follows: Morning service at 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.; afterwards inspection of the uniformed units by the president. The units were well represented at the inspection parade and the members are to be commended for their very smart appearance; the Black Cross Nurses and the Legion man looked their best. The president of the division was seen for the first time in his uniform as commander of the units. At 4 p.m. all roads lead to Liberty hall, and additional seating had to be provided. The hall was well decorated with flowers and ever-greens, and here and there bunches of bananas and plantains were suspended in mid-air. Near the platform were fruits and vegetables and displayed upon a table were some beautiful cakes and other delicacies. The service conducted by the chaplain, Mr. C. M. Clarke, was very impressive, and his preliminary remarks and Scripture lessons selected were appropriate for the occasion. Hymn No. 65 was sung, then the chaplain called on each of the following gentlemen to give an eight minute talk: Mr. B. E. Learn spoke off the "Sower" and with choice words showed how important a part the sower took in the result of a harvest. Mr. W. J. Minott, second vice president, spoke on "Sowing and Reaping." Mr. R. Blake spoke on the blessings of God's providence, as in the promise made by the Almighty, "that seedtime and harvest shall not cease as long as the earth remains." Mr. A. Cunnings spoke on "Harvest and the Beauty of It," picturing it as a day when we should be especially thankful to God, Hymn 66 was next sung, after which Mr. A. McClaryt, president of the division, spoke. He said, "We should all bear in mind that our gifts are not given to God, because He does not need them, but its spirit of thankfulness that He desires and expects. The members of the U. N. I. A. are sowing now with much sacrifice, but one day we shall reap if we fail not, and our harvest shall be an emancipated Negro race and a redeemed motherland. This memorable service closed, with benediction and national anthem at 5:30 p.m. The evening meeting convened at 7:15 p.m. After all were in their places, the first vice president, Mr. James Mattis, proceeded with the ritual service. At the conclusion of name, the chaplain's arrose, and in his usual style introduced the chairman for the meeting in the person of the president. He then struck the gavel and the entire audience rose and sang, "Ethiopia Thou Land of Our Fathers." The president general's message was next read, after which Mrs. Wallace treated the gathering to a very fine solo, "They Are Waiting to Welcome Us There." The president then arose and gave his salutation to the house, saying among other things, that Negroes are bound to honor the Hon. Marcus Garvey because he has merited it. The next item was an address by Lleut. Goldbourne, U. A. L. who succeeded in getting two recruits for the African Legion. The choir then rendered an anthem. At this juncture the president, Mr. McClarity, called upon the ex-president, Mr. R. S. F. Blake, to step forward, and with choice words presented, him a letter in the name of the division thankking him for past services rendered to the division and to the race at large. Mr. Blake replied suitably and assured the gath- ering that he joined the U. N. I. A. because he was convinced that the cause was worthy. Mr. G. C. Douglas, secretary, next took the platform and explained in detail the meaning of a chart presented to the division by a member. He also made a strong appeal for all Negroes to cast in their lot and save our race from extermination. A solo was then given by Mr. D. Foote, as also Mr. J. A. James. Mr. E. Sybils also gave a short address, and Mr. J. U. Davis, the last speaker, declared in ringing tones, that the Banes division must be a starlight in the U. N. I. A. for 1925. The anthem was sung and all went away with a new spirit of determination. R. BLAKE. Reporter. PUERTO CORTEZ, HOND. On Sunday, January 25, 1925, the Puerto Cortez Division of the U. N. I. A. held a mass meeting at its Liberty Hall at 3 p.m. Due to an unavoidable delay of the president, the treasurer, Mr. Alfred Cain was appointed to occupy the chair protein. The meeting was opened with the singing of the hymn, "Shine on Eternal Light." Prayer was offered by the chaplain, Mr. John Callam for the safety of the S. S. Booker T. Washington and her crew at sea. The president, Mr. Thomas A. Ford, arrived late on and was asked by the acting chairman and the congregation to preside over the balance of the meeting. In the course of his address, he expressed his regrets that the orchestra had been unable to turn out on this occasion. He also spoke on the necessity of having a Negro Boy's Band which was approved of by all present and was financially supported. At the close of the program the president thanked Miss Emily Blake and Mr. S. B. Appleton for getting up such a wonderful program. He also thanked the members and friends who took part in the program. The meeting was enjoyed by all and was brought to a close in their usual manner. (Mrs.) WILFRED G. VALPY, Assistant Secretary.

As early as 7:30 p. m., Liberty Hall was crowded with those anxious to hear Mr. Batchelor's address. The meeting was cailed to order and the processional hymn, "Shine on Eternal Light," was sung. The opening ode, "From Greenland's Icy Mountains," followed. After prayers from the Ritual and the singing of Te Deum, Mr. James Lanye, chaplain, introduced the president.

The president also, congratulated the Divisions upon their excellent choice of a representative and spokesman at the recent International Convention. Mr. Batchelor was asked to exhibit his credentials, which were read. His credentials showed his appointment as organizer for the island of Cuba and Brigadier-General for the Uniform Rank of the Legion. Great applause showed the appreciation of the audience. Amnesty cheers and the singing of the Ethiopian National Anthem, Mr. Batchelor rose and was introduced. Mr. Batchelor then gave an interesting and instructive address about two hours in length. He was extended a unanimous vote of thanks at the close of his address. The meeting closed with the singing of the Ethiopian National Anthem and the doxology. On Monday evening a large crowd again came out to hear Mr. Batchelor. At 7:30 p.m. standing room could not be had. The president, Mr. R. C. Russell, presided.

A. held a grand-rally so as to raise funds to present to the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company, a few days before the sailing of the S. S. Booker T. Washington.

Ayant jeté ces mots à son secretaire qui avec un petit groupe d'amis séuit rendu à la gare de Pennsylvanie assister à son depart; Son Excellence Mr Garvey, le bras lié à ce lui d'un dépuy marshall, prit place un wagon du Washington Express, et le plus insouciant du monde, engage la conversation avec le grave officier de la Loi. On était au Samedi et Thorlorge venait de soigner midi. Mr Garvey venait d'être précipité de la Tombs prison à la gare de Pennsylvanie pour être dirigeé le penitentiaire d'Atlanta. Il y arriva escorte de deux, marcheaux. Des menottes d'acier le retenait à l'un deux an visage sévère et recharbatif. Quant à l'Auteur, heut de six pieds et arnie de deux revolvers, il avait les allures et l'aspect du prize-fighter retraite. Un railroad detective augmentait cette escorte et tous, à l'exception du pisnier, j'aient de ci, de la, des regards inquets. Mr Garvey aperçoit son secretaire qui passe devant je groupe afin d'être vu. "Hello, crie Mr Garvey avec un sourire, est-ce que ça marche bien la-has? A-t-on requu mon message?" "Oui, monsieur", répond l'autre; et murechaux et detective, volant difficilement un sourire, se retourne pour contempler leur homme avec, dans les yeux, une expression comme qui dirait "Mais quel sorte d'homme est donc celui-ci?" Mr Garvey a gagné sa place dans le wagon et la foule qui est massée au dehors pour le voir par les fenêtres ne cesse d'augmenter. Un clergman, remarquant le mouvement d'excitation qui court parmi les voyageurs, abaisse son eye et observe la scène. Tous les voyageurs chuchotten entre eux. L'un deux, avec une grimace, abaisse le rideau et derobe aux spectateurs la vue de leur leader. La doute couche un reporter-photographie se démeille à signaler vainement à Mr Garvey de se retourner pour être mieux pris. Dans deux minutes le train doi laisser. "Deblâye la voie" crie-t-en quelque part; et Madame Amy Jacques Garvey saute dans le train un billet pour Atlanta entre les doigts. Les efforts qu'on avait tentés en vue de tronner les amis de Mr Garvey sur l'heure de son depart furent frustres. Un reporter sympathique avait eu la bienveillance de transmettre l'information à Mde Garvey, aux officiers d'PU. N. I. A. et aux avogates de Mr Garvey qui attendaient à la Tombs prison. Vite on hula un taxi. Arrivés à la lage le groupe au la satisfaction de constater que tout le corps des "Red Caps" s'était constitu en comité d'information pour les averir à quel moment le grand leader était attendu. Au moment où Mide Garvey prend place dans le coche, dans la troisième rangée après son mari, qu'il quèvum tape sur la fenêtre. Mr Garvey se retourne et aperçoit sa femme. Tout de suite un sourrire s'épapon sur ses lèvres. Madame Garvey, brave petite femme, calmement assise, regardée à tour son mari et les gendarmes. Une porte se refere violence. Le train boue. "Tomnerre, fait un gros Red Cap" les yenux noyés de larmes. "Quelle hontel!" Le gros marshall, qui tout ce temps était resté raidement de bout, les points sur les hanches, dominant. Mr Garvey telle une personification du terrorisme, se laisse aller sur un siège cependant que ses traits engérisent une furie émotion de honte. Le Négre le plus craint de la terre, le-plus grand homme de la Race est en route pour une prison fédérale.

A tous mes Congénères, Salut: Ce m'est une joe de vous informer que, de souffrir pour vous et pour notre cause, je suis aussi heureux qu'on peut Fête en la circonstance, nonobstant les outrages et la malignité d'un groupe, de peucteurs qui ont comploté votre humiliation dans jia personne en vue d'anéanir la lutte que nous livrons pour amener la vraie emancipation des Noirs et la rédémption de l'Afrique. Je souhaite que vous n'avez accorde aucune crèance aux mensonges grossiers que certaines jouraux ennénies, blancs et noirs, ont fait circuler sur mon compte et tendant à dire que je n'etais pas disposé à me rendre aux autorités. Mon avocat m'ayant declare qu'aucun mandat n'est décréme contre moi avant dix ou quatorce jours, selon la coutume en matière judiciaire, j'ai compris que j'aurais le temps de tenir les engagements que j'avais contracté de parler à Detroit, Cincinnati et Cleveland. Il ny avait pas dix heures depuis que j'avais laissé la métropole quand, rompant avec les contunes ciables, le mandat fut lance et ces menteurs lancerent le brut que j'etsais fugitif. C'était la une bonne histoire à circuler de par le monde pour demoraliser les millions de Négres en Amérique, Afrique, Asie, les 'Antilles et le Centre-Amerique; mais les idiots devraient savoir à cette date qu'ils ne peuvent tromper tous les Noirs en même temps. Je ne veux rien écrire en ce moment capable de vous susciter des difficultes qu'il vous faudra surmuster sans mon assistance. Qu'il me suffise de dire que la relation de l'outrage dont j'ai l'objet forerma un splendide chapitre dans l'histoire de l'Afrique rediminue lorsque les noirs ne seront plus sous les bottes des autres mais possèderon un pays et une civilisation propres. Ces affaires est une disgrace d'un bout à l'autre et tout l'univers noir le sait. N'oubliez pas. Notre heure ne sonnera pas peut-être avant un deni-siecle, cent, deux cents mais; mais veillons, travailleurs et priors, car la civilisation qui est fondée sur l'injustice doit failliblement s'encréler et entraîner la destruction des injustes. Les idiotes; ils ont pensé qu'il pouvaient m'humilier personuellement, mais en cela ils se sont trompés. Les minutes de souffrances sont comptées; et lorsque Dieu et l'Afrique se leveront pour infilger la rétribution, il se pourra que sa durée soit mille fois plus grande pour les pêcheurs. Nos amis ariabes et riffles seront toujours vigilans comme le seront le reste de l'Afrique et nous-memes. Soyez certaines que j'ai bien planté la senteure du nationasisme Négre et qu'elle ne pourra pas être detruite par la noire injustice qui m'a été faite. Continue de prier pour moi et je reesterai toujours fidèle à ma charge. Je désire que vous sachiez, vous les peuples noits de la terre, W. E. W. B. DuBois et cette organisation viciense et negrophobe que l'ononne l'Association pour l'Avancement des gens de Conleur, sont les plus grands ennemis de la race noire. J'ai tant à faire dans les peu de minutes dont je dispose que je ne peux metendre sur ce sujet ni sur d'autres; mais soyez averti contre ces deux ennemis. Ne vous laissez pas tromper par l'oquequence de leurs écrits, de leurs discours ou de leurs livres; ils sont les vipères qui, en commun avec d'autres, ont complété l'extinction de la race noire. Mon oeuvre n'a fait, que commencer; et quand sera complete l'histoire de me souffrances, alors les futures generations-de negres auront enmain le guide par lequel ils connaissent les peches du vingtième siècle. Je crois à l'action du temps; et le sais que vous y croyez aussi; aussi attendrons deux siecles s'il, le faut pour confronter nos ennemis dans la personne de nos generations. Vous me cosolerez beaucoup si vous faites à cette heure plus que vous ne faisiez pour l'organisation quand j'était parmi vous. Soutenez les mains de ceux qui sont appelés à continuer l'oeuvre. Facilitez-le-le succes, pour que l'oeuvre puisse continuer à se prepager de pole en pole. Je fais aussi un dernier et supreme appel en faveur de la Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company. Veuillez envoyer vos souscriptions afin de permettre aux Directeurs de mener l'entreprise à bonne fin. Tout ce que je'ai, je vous Fai donné. Pour vous j'ai fait le sacrifice de mon foyer et de mes affections en la personne de ma femme. Je la confie à vos niains, vous la protegerez et la defendrez en mn absence. Elle est la plus brave petite femme que je sache. Elle a partagé mes sacrifices et mes souffrances pour vous; par conséquent, veuillez ne pas la descritter en cette heure douleurouse ou elle se trouve seule. Je la laissée seule et sais un sou au monde, parce que je vous ait tout donne; mais son courage est grand, je sais qu'elle saura tonir ferme pour vous, et pour moi. Lorsque mes ennemis auront assouli leur haine; vivait ou mort je revientrail par serir servir jai toujours servi. Vivant, je serai le meime; mort je serai la terreur des ennemis da la liberté des Noirs. Si les morts sont doués de quelques pouvoirs, alors comptez sur, moi pour être le vrai Marcus Garvey que je voudrais être. Si Dieu m'accorde le pouvoir de revenir soigne forme de perturbation simique, de cyclone, de peste, de mal pestilient, ou de tout autre façon, alors soyez sûrs que je ne vous deserterez jamais pour permettre à vos ennemis de trionphier de vous. N'affronterais-je pas l'enfer un million de fois pour vous? Telle Tonne de Macbeth n'arpenterais-je pas etl'eternellement la terre pour vous? Ne renoncerais-je pas au moudre et a l'eternite en votre faveur? N crierais-je pas etl'eternellement pour vous devant le marchepied du Tout-Puissant? Ne souffirais-je pas un million de morts pour vous? Alors pourquoi vous attrister? Egayez-vous, et soyez certaines que dut-il prendre un million d'années, il sera redemande compte des iniquités de nos ennemis à la millionnème génération de ceux qui nous entravent et nous oppressent. Soivenez-vous que j'ai jure par vous et par mon Dieu de vous servir jusqu'à la fin des temps, de la destruction des mondes et de l'ancêtissement de la natière. Énémien pense que je suis vaincu. Les Allemands vaientquirent-ils les Français en 1870? Napoléon avait il vraiment asservi l'Europe? Si ou, alors je suis vaincu; mais je vous affirme que le monde aura des nouvelles des principes que j'ai préconises, fut-ce dans deux mille ans d'ici. Observez me ennemis, ennemis ennemis et leurs postérites, el un jour vous revraze la rétribution les environner. Si je meurs en Atlanta mon euvre ne sera que commencece.

BARON GARVEY. Spanish Section Mensaje de nuestro presidente a la raza mientras paga el precio de dirección—Propaganda incierta—La simiente del nacionalismo de la raza está bien plantada—Los enemigos más encarnizados del negro—Patrocinad a los que están en el timón del movimiento—La compañera mas valiente—En caso de morir en Atlanta—La civilización del siglo XX esta embriagada con el poder Compañeros de la raza: Me regocijo en informarles que su humilde servidor está tan satisfecho en su fríer por vosotros y por nuestra causa, como es posible el estado bajo las circunstancias de ser víciosamente ultrajado por un grupo de conspiradores, quienes se han reunido para llevar a cabo su labor nefanda de humillaros por médiaación-mia, en la lucha por nuestra encanipación y la completa redencio de la explotada Africa. Firmemente creo y en ello descanso de que vosotros no le habéis dado credito a las mentiras viciosas de la prensa cienigua de la raza que me antagonizan en todo cuanto se ha hablado en referencia a mi detención. Los falsales maquívalicamente hicieron aparecer las cosas como si yo no hubiese estado dispuesto a presentarme en corne. Mi anagogado me dijo, y toque así si sus consejo, que el mandato de la corne no se me haría conocer por la via legal, hasta después de diez días según la ruina e establecida, dando esto tiempo más que suficiente para sumir compromisos anteriormente contraídos, para hablar en las ciudades de Detroit, Cincinnati y Cleveland. No habian transcurrido diez horas después de haber salido yo de la ciudad, cuando vino lo inesperado, lo que no se positió estando el mandato de encarcelamiento fue evacuado por la corne en ese contexto lapsado de tiempo, y no estando yo en la jurisdicción de Nueva York, fueativo más que suficiente para que los farisicos y los caínes alarman la opinión pública, declarándome un vulgar fugitivo de la justicia. Con tan buena noticia, la maldad fue lanzada los vientos de la publicidad con la odiosa intención de desmoralizar al negro en America y en Africa; más los idiotas deben saber a estas horas que nunca podan builde de todos los negros al mismo tiempo. No desco por el presente escribir nada que sea para vosotros dificultos el probar, dada la oposición que ello recibiera por parte de más confrancantes. Vosotros, seguramente necesariéis mi ayuda; pero hastane decir que la historia de este ultrajueva formará un capítulo espíondido en la reciclación del Africa redimije, en cuando el humedro negro no tenga por más tiempo que soportar el tacón de su opresor, y se sienta libre poseedor de una civilización y de un continente que sean suyug, exquisitamente suyos. Todo lo que ha sucedido es una desgracia lamentable y así lo entiende nuestro elemento pensante. Nosotros no olidiamos nuestro dia ha de venir, ya sea dentro de cincuenta, en doscientos años. La civilización de la injusticia va en decedencia, con un fuerte y nuestros sacrificios traceremos la destrucción de este regimen operador, y deseargaren el peso de responsabilidad sobre la caligaez de los tiranos y de los injustos. Los idiots creyeron que podían humillarmie personalmente, pero se equivocaron. Los minutos de surmiemenos están contados y cuando Dios y aparezcan de nuevo y midan los pesos por vajar y peso, entonces esos minutos podran multiplicarse por miles para los pecadores. Nuestros amigos los arabes y los rífos estan signatures vigilantes, como lo esta el Africa y como lo estaremos nosotros a la vela. Estad seguros que la semilla del nacionalismo de laarea que la plantanabien profunda y en terreno fertil, no podrá ser destruida ni ante por la artímanas que se han puesto en ninguno para destruir. Continual orando por mi y yo seré siempre tiel al cridito que me habéis conferido. Quiero que nuestro elemento universitario seque que W. E. B. Du Bousy s y viiciona, detestable y odiosa camarilla denominada organización, son los enuncios más encarnizados de nuestra raza. Tengo tanto a que atender en los pocos minutos a mi disposición, que me es imposible el escribir extensamente sobre este nuestro qualquier asunto, pero no obstante me complazé a flamme, poderonamente la atención para que os ponga en guardia contra es, farsantes. No os deje seisjorperor de su prensa galana, por sus discursos, repíe de softnas y por sus libros de hipóterias enseñanza. Ellos son los vampiros que han planteado con otros la extinción nuestra. Mi obra solamente se ha empezado, y cuando la historia de mis sufrimientos esté completa, las futuras generaciones de la raza tendram en sus manos la guía por la cual ellas conocecan el pecado del siglo XX. Yo, como vosotros, creo en la obra infatigable del tiempo y si es necesario, hemos de esperar doscientos años para encontrarnos con nuestros engenios frente a frente; esperemos y venzan nuestros opositos; con la armavar de justicia que disponan muestras generaciones. Vosotros me confortareis, más si hicieres más esfuerzo por la organización durante mi ausencia, que cuando yo gozaba de entera libertad y podía estar entre vosotros. Ayudad pues -los que estan actualmente en eltimón de nuestro movimiento, para que hagan más eficiente su labor de día en día y continu la difusión de nuestra propagada sanity y honrada de polo a polo. También hago en estos minutos otro llamamiento que patrocinireis nuestra -nueva corporación naviera la Cruz Negra. Enviad vuestros prestamos para así cooperar con los directores a llevar al éxito las grandes aspiraciones de la empresa. Todo cuanto poseo le hado do la causa a todo transe defenemos; he sacrificado mi hogar y mi amorosa compañera. A vuestro cuidado pues se la confio, para que la protejáis y la defendáis en mi ausencia. Esa compañera mia, esa esposa inimitable en la mujer más valiente que he conocido; ella ha sufrido y se ha sacrificado conmigo por una causa santa y justa, y os suplico por lo tanto, no la desertéis en estas horas de desmayo, cuando la ola de injusticia quiere envolverla. por haberme acompañado en este mi terrible viacruces que humos emprendidos juntos. La ella está espero; que la conferteis en esta hora de prieba. La he dejado empobrecida; ni un cintimo respalda sus necesidades más precarias. Ha quedado huerfana, materialmente para hacerle frente al mundo; pero posee una cuantiosa riqueza de sirtud y espiritualidad, para afrontar lo tumultoso-del momento. Tiene una gran alma y tengo la intima convicción de que ella mantendra incolume y con衷ente de caracter, la parte que le corresponde como mujer de una raza, y esposa de la victima del celo de los cicarios y de los judas modernos.

Todo oficial y todo miembro de la asociación se vera gobernado por medio de sus disposiciones. MARCUS GARVEY, Presidente General. Tan pronto se tuvo conocimiento que la convicción de nuestro honorable presidieñ fue re firmada por la Corte de Apelación, algunos de los diarios locales llenaron sus columnas con la misma clase de propaganda, en su esfuerzos para destruir la moral del dinero considerable de miembros de la Asociación Universal para el Ato de la Raza Negra. Contrarrestando tal propaganda, apareció en el Boletín de la Tarde de esta cuidad, en su número de fecha 6 de febrero, un editorial el cual reproduciimos a continuación: Febrero 6, 1925 - El señor Armin Kohn, de la firma Kohn-ó Nagler, abogados defensores de Marceus Garvey, hizo las siguientes manifestaciones en referencia al proceso: En camino hacia la prison Federal de Atlanta—Escena en la estación del ferrocarril En mis veinte y tres años de práctica en Nueva York, nunca afrontó un caso en el que mi defendido hubiera sido tratado con tant parecialidad, tendiente a su fremidiable convicción, como el caso del señor Garvey. El fue convicto de haber usado el correo para defraudar, y sentencado, a cinco años en la prison federal de Atlanta. "Digale al senor Bourne que me telegrafic a Atlanta y me dénoticeis del vapor." Con estas palabras a su secretario, uno de los que forman un pequeño grupo en la estacion del ferrocarril, el honorable Marcin Garvey ocupó su asiento en el empréstio de Washington, escortador dos marshalls del gobierno federal. El record de la vista de este caso consta de cuatro volumenes, los enules tienen un número de tres mil paginas aproximadamente. La apa-lación que presentada ante la Corte de Circuito en enero 19, y dos semanas después, apesar de la enorme del record, la contentia fue reafir-mada. El señor Garvey en ese intervio portó para Detroit, y tam fronto fui notificado de la decision de la Corte, hablé por telefónica con el Fiscal de la misma manifesto-dole que mi deficiido se hallaba in Detroit, a quien iba a telegratias para que regresara miniaturamente a esta cidad, y se presentara en la oficina del Marshall federal. Eran las doce del día, sabado, febrero 7. Nuestro honorable presidente habia sido trasladado de la prison local Las Tumbas a la cisión de la Pennsylvania para emprender su viña hacia la puente-claria federal de la ciudad de Atlanta. Llego a la estación acompañado de dos agentes federales un detective de la compañía ferrocarrilera, quienes exhaltados y mirando en todas direcciones ganijan hacia la plataforma del tren en espera. El señor Garvey, acompañado de su esposa, regresaba a esta el siguiente día, y al llegar el tren en que vijaba la estación de la calle 125, se desarrollo al altra cima rienda. odenes tal vez la oficina del Fiscal. Un gran número de hombres armados se avalanzaron sobre el señor Garvey, y de la manera más impolítica le levantaron del asiento que occupa al lado de su esposa, conducible presupiladamente a la prisión de La Timbua. Mr. Garvey ve a su secretario que pasa apuradamente delante de su escorza y el "Ola" de sus labios y la sorrisa característica de su expresión, calman su excitación. "Congesta todo, bien? " Recibió Ud. un recado? " Si, señor, fue todo quien, toido contestar, pues en el instante la escorza apuraba la entrada en el tren. Ya ha ocupado susientos y el grupo afuera se amanita. Todos los pasajeros en el cochicupiezan a secrearse. Uno de ellos con rostro de verdugo tira la cortina, para evitar que los de afuera puedan ver a nuestro leader a la partida del tren. Al otro lado del coche un fotografo hace todo clase de gestos y articulaciones para llamar la atención de Mr. Garvey con el objeto de tomar su fotografia. Todo esto este ejecución apear de mi promesa, así como de la promena del señor Levy, socio del señor longe Gordon Battle, de que el señor Garvey se entregara inmortalmente después de llegar a Nueva York. El señor Fiscal no estuvo satisfiedo con esto, y aunque convino conigo el paginar que mi destigilde penninacía, en la prisión de Las Fimbias, por mi tiempo razonable para presentar una queva apelación, al ser presentada esta en la Corte el día siguiente, el Fiscal se opuso vigorosamente a dicha petición. El tren la de partir en dos minutos más. Alguien exclama: "Abuso, ya la señora Amy Jacques Garvey, esposa del noble prisoner, entra en el mismo coche, listando en las manos su pasaje directa hacia Atlanta, y ocupando su puesto tres desentidos detrás de su esposo. Uno de los expectadores toca a a ventuilla y hace indicaciones a a Mr. Garvey para que mire hacia atrás. De nuevo aquella sonrisa, expresión dig sinceridad "traparcee en su semblante. La señora Garvey, pequeña en esatura pero grande en semblentes, permanece sentida aparecente tranquilla pero con la visía fija en su esposo y sus guardianes. Las puertas del coche se cierzan y el tren se pone en movimiento. Uno de los negros más grandes del mundo do se en camino hacia una prison federal. Fue la intención del senior Garvey, según sus instrucciones a la defensa, el apelar a la Corte Suprema Federal, sentando su base en que se habian conctecido errores durante el proceso, y que la Corte de Circuito estaba finera de lugar al reactivar su conviction. El deseaba permanecer en la ciudad algn días, por el hecho de que es presidente de una organización de cervea de cuatro millones de miembros, y estos tienen capital invertido en varias empresas de las cuales el senior Garvey es el director, y con el propósito ademas de ver sus intereses protejidos antes de su partida. Atlantia y ocupando su puesto tres detritos de tras de su espeso. Uno de los espectadores toca a a ventuilla y hace indicaciones a Mr. Garvey para que nire hacia herra. De nuevo aquella sorrisa, expresión un sinceridad reacarce en su semblante. La señora Garvey, pequeña en estatura pero grande en señores, permanece sentada aparentemente tranquilla, pero con la vista fija en su esposo y sus guardianes. Las puertas del coche se cieran y el tren se pone en movimiento. Uno de los negros más grandes del mundo se y en camino hacia una prisión federal.

Más, si aparmentemente estuy arriuñado por el sistema de influencia actual, si estoy sometido a un poder mal dirijido dado el presente regimen social imparante, gobernado por intereses intimamente ligados para arriuar la causa noble y repleta de justicia que defendemos, estoy en la intima seguridad que esta misma causa al correr del tiempo, se levantara truin-fante y oscurecerca con su respiandor-divino, tal como lo hizo el cris-tianismo en su comienzo, la conciencia turbia de los villes corruptores de las almas grandes y generosas. Por esto me siento satisfecho y por vosotros, he de repetir, estoy contento en aufrir y si es necesario morir por la causa que fodos defendemos. Alegraos, que jouez dans han de sucederse.

Con el mejor deseo, me uscribo vuelto humilde servido. MARCUS GARVEY, President General, Asociación Universal para el Adhesivo de la Raza Alegra Prisión Federal de Athena, febrero de 1925 THE PEOPLE'S FORUM Shall Members of the U. N. L. A "Woop and Moor?" To The Editor of the Negro World: 'He reading an article which gave paedised in the New York "Daily News", referring to our beloved President General, Hon. Marcus Garvey, I notched that the writer claims in large headlines that "Harlem Weeps Over Garvey, Jailbound." But why should we mourn? Are we not true soldiers of the Negro army? Do soldiermourn when comrades fall in battle or stop to weep over their losses? I should may no! Are we not enlisted members in a mighty combat? War doesn't always mean big guns, dreadnoughts, and aeroplanes alone. Men can create war by their opinions, which may be contrary to those of others, while in our own hearts war is constantly raging against what is right and what is wrong. The Universal Negro Improvement Association declared war six years ago, when it told the world that we think the Negro should have a country of their own and the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, while others were thinking just the opposite way. Then why should Harlem mourn? It's only a gallant soldier fallen in the fray. We have no time to sigh, no time to cry. Our crying lady has long gone by. The battle ranges fiercely, with cannons before and behind us. Let Harlem be courageous, and the world will know that the New Negro can face defeat without a thought of retreat. The battle is not always for the mighty and the race for the swift. Then, why should Harlem mourn? He was no cringing, weak-kneed Negro. He kept his word to the last. It is only left to consider wisely, for it is hard to find, he who will be next that will be like unto him. CAPT. J. BAKER. N. A. R. G. The Greatest Comfort We Can Give the Chief To The Editor of The Negro World: As is natural, the loss of our leader, Mr. Garvey, has caused a great glom to settle upon those of us who love the U. N. I. A. While we will miss him our present task is to preserve the organization at any cost. It must not be said that by ablacking the sheepher they scattered the sheep, for that is exactly what the enemy wants. The duty of every member is clear. This is no time for weeping or talking about getting revenge on those within or without our race who were responsible for his conviction. Such talk will only lead to trouble and the disposition of the organization by the strong arm of the government. We must devote ourselves to the strengthening of that which is ours, namely, the U. N. I. A. and its various assets. We must stand behind our new leaders and uphold them with our helpful advice and our money. Let it not be said that we were more devoted to Mr. Garvey than we were to the U. N. L. A. which is really OURSELVES. Every Man Who Has Lea Force of You Scientist Makes Wonderful Discovery Years Should Every Man Who Has Lost the Vital Force of Youth May Be Restored Scientist Makes Wonderful Discovery—Says No Man Under 100 Years Should Feel Old A new discovery is said to have been made by a scientific study of Western mountain people who scientist say, live longer than anyone else. It is also the discovery should add years to your life. All parts of the world and quickly restore healthy strength, youthful vigor, grace and beauty lost by neglect of abuse. Scientists argue that the secret of health and vigor lies in the internal glands and, if these glands are stimulated and kept in normal activity, man might live forever and aliment such an organism.

The greatest comfort we can give "The Chief" is to let him know that we have kept together and done nothing to reflect upon ourselves, the U. N. I. A., and the race. This is a time to take stock of ourselves, to check up and work. Let us ignore, the enemy, without and condemn those within our ranks. Above all, beware of anyone who counsels us to resort to violence against anyone. Such a person is likely to be a spy planted in our midst. For, having got rid of Mr. Garvey the next move will be to amash the organization. If we are circumspect in action and inward the great principles espoused by us will triumph over all opposition. Finally, let us stand behind those who are in'charge of affairs and who are in control because of our votes. Yours for a stronger U. N. I. A. New York. Fob. 8. Dedicates His Life to the Redemption of Africa To the Editor of The Negro World: Please allow me space in your paper to insert that I, John A Rolle on this 31st day of January, A. D., 1925, am thankful to Almighty God, to know that I am spared to see the age of 35, and as a loyal member of my race, I firmly dedicate my life to the cause of the U. N. I. A. for the redemption of my Mother Land, Africa. I have made this promise in the presence of myself and the invisible spirit of Almighty God, that from this day hence, I shall endeavor by his help to contribute for this cause, in every respect. According to the above statement, you can plainly see I am willing, if necessary, to give my life for the redemption of Africa. JOHN A. ROLLE. West Palm Beach, Fla. Plea from Honduras to Stand by the Association Ladies and Gentlemen Greeting To the, Editor of The Negro World; Let me bring to your remembrance that you are belonging to a race that has been kept down for over 300 years, until recently we have been granted liberty and still more recently we have been awakened to Racial Consciousness. One of the chief factors in bringing about this race consciousness is the well known "Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League." Much has been accomplished by this association for the elevation of the Negro status and it is still prepared to continue until its aims and objects are fulfilled. Our aims and objects are based on racial love, racial pride and racial unity, its teachings are not incendiary for it does not teach us to hate other races but to love the Negro race and to work for its uplift.

Negroes are belonging to the Negro race, and we owe an allegiance to our race which we dare not shrink, so as to hand down to posterity; a better moral, industrial and economic standard. Every true member of our race has a duty to perform, the members of other races have had their duties to perform and they have done it and are still carrying on. Why then are we so slow in coming to perform our duties? Let me assure you that now it has come to the Negro to do his duty to his race. Are we not to do our duty to our race? Do we love our race? If we can answer "yes" to all these questions then there is no better way of demonstrating our willingness and our love than to be enrolled and become active members of the only association which stands with the Negro, for the Negro and by the Negro. The Universal Negro Improvement Association is the Negroes' Association. It was organized by Negroes, for Negroes to be a united race, and its goal a "Nation."

The Age of Prophecy To The Editor of The Negro World. On behalf of the Negro people of the world I ask this question: Can a Negro get justice through any system of laws, or governments except created by the Negro? What will it profit the Negroes by Marcus Garvey's imprisonment? Will it weaken the energy and soften the courage of the fourth generation toward nation building? O. W. WHITE. Brooklyn, N. Y. Congratulates Mr. Garvey Upon His Great Sacrifice To the Editor of The Negro World! Please allow me space in your noble paper to contemplate Hon. Marcus Garvey, even though he may be in prison at this time yet we are with him to the end and sorry we can not share him at this time, but, we can stick by him and help him by keeping his work going until he returns to us. If McSweny's followers were willing to stick by him, if Gandhla's followers were willing to support his cause, even if Gandhla were in prison; if we as Christians are willing and are following a leader who did not only go to prison but died for us, who we have not seen, surely we suffering Negroes will stand by Garvey until Africa is redeemed. Let us realize that the "Darkest hour is just before dawn," and as Mr. Sherrell has often said, "The sky may be darkened and you can't see it for the clouds, but remember it from the time when it was bright and there were no clouds about." I also think that our president's last message at Liberty Hall should go down in history, subject, "What more can we do" and a special remark he made that should not be forgotten. "You may not hear me speak from this platform a few days, for I am going away." At this WHY BE UNLUCKY The purpose of the first letter is to express the writer's deep sadness and sorrow.

I am very glad to hear that my people are trying to redo-mour country, and I will do all in my power to help. It is too bad that more of our educated men don't put their knowledge to better use. They are not ignorant of the fact as to how the blacks are treated in this country and also Africa. If they would go to Africa and make a general survey of conditions it would be much better than hanging around the United States talking about what someone else should do. They hardly give even their financial support, just talk and keep on talking. No definite motive can be carried out by talking, but by actual doing. J. J. NORWOOD Penticton, B. C.

College Graduates Are a Dying Race BOSTON.—"The American college graduate is a dying race," diminishing so rapidly that at the end of six generations 1,000 degree-holders will be represented by only fifty descendants, Albert E. Wiggan, New York Biologist, told the National Civic Federation here last night. The real menace in this decline of the college-bred class is that the nation will fail to muster the best type of leaders to its service, he declared. "College graduates have furnished nine out of every ten leaders in all branches of society, church, education, industry, business and politics throughout American history," Mr. Wiggan said. "The masses never produce anything elfier in the way of machinery or better social organization and management. These are all the products of separate, unique minds. "In modern times science has made so many luxuries and set up so many demands on man's time angi-energy and money that his duties to raise a family has been swamped. It is only the unsuccessful that have families. The successful are committing race suicide. The chief hope of the world is better environment, better education. In order that through this improved' education we shall be able to improve our heredity and thus produce a healthier, more intelligent and more beautiful and moral race." Manhattan Y. W. C. A.
