ONWARD IN 1927! Only A Question of Time When the World Will Be Forced to Give A Respectful Hearing to the Soul-Cry of the New Negro The world is now face to face with a terrible unrest. Humanity everywhere is provoked to the point of action. In this clamor to reach the top, 400,000,000 Negroes have also lifted their united voices to high heaven for a better adjustment of racial affairs and for a better consideration of things economic, political and social. The Universal Negro Improvement Association sponsors the new spirit of the new Negro. We feel that there is need for an immediate readjustment; that things cannot continue as they are. Feeling thus makes us very outspoken in our declaration. We want liberty, we want true freedom. We want the privilege of living and exercising our rights as men. The world is not inclined or disposed to grant us this, hence we are in conflict with the world. The organized groups that have controlled the affairs of the darker and weaker peoples of the world are now exerting every energy and making every effort to further subjugate our race by a sinister and underhand effort to destroy the usefulness of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. There is no secret about it. England and France have been using their agents and their spies in the United States of America to undermine the influence of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. To what extent they have succeeded is made manifest in the fact that the Universal Negro Improvement Association stands firmer than ever in its declaration for African freedom and universal emancipation for Negroes. I have been imprisoned, but the great work proceeds. Great embarrassments have been caused through the work of these agents and spies, some of whom were even employees of our organization and auxiliary corporations. We know them all. Some we discovered too late, but their activities have been closely observed to the point where it makes us only more determined to wage an unrelenting battle until we have brought about the completion of our work. The embarrassments we have had in the Black Star Line and other business enterprises were but the result of the undermining influences of agents who have been at work for the purpose of defeating our industrial plans by which they could convince the unthinking multitude of what they would call the "failure" of the African Redemption Movement, but these arch enemies of Negro progress are calculating without their hosts. In their opposition they are counting upon the old psychology of the old Negro. The new Negro has learned to measure failures but as stepping stones to success, so that nothing that has happened to the Universal Negro Improvement Association will deter the new Negro one bit in waging a campaign for African redemption and universal emancipation. We need not go back to the histories of France and England and even of America to recount the many failures in governments before they were able to reach the positions that they now occupy in world politics. The Universal Negro Improvement Association, therefore, is satisfied to pass through even the same set-backs as did America in her making, or England in her rise from a slave nation to the great imperial power that she is today. Conflict of Wit and Intelligence We are engaged in a conflict of wits and intelligence. Black men of the world must utilize their brain power in competition with the brain power of the other races in making a place and holding it in the affairs of men. We are determined to redeem Africa through the Universal Negro Improvement Association. We shall fight on until we have succeeded in giving a consciousness of race to each and every member of the 400,000,000 Negroes. Thank God, Africa has awakened to the cry of "Africa for the Africans at Home and Abroad!" Not only in South Africa but West Africa, North Africa, East Africa and Central Africa has the doctrine been promulgated. The great flame of liberty is burning and in a short while it will have consumed all that stands in opposition to light and freedom. Let us go before the world in the year just begun with a greater determination to fight this battle. Let us not slacken our energies one bit, for beyond that dark cloud we can see a silvery lining. Let the world criticize us, but the world is sober and sensible enough to know that ultimately the Negro will triumph in his cause of justice. The studied scorn of the world is but a subterfuge to divert the Negro's attention from the object that he has set before him. Didn't the world laugh at Washington of America and the great leaders of French liberation? Didn't the world laugh at the reformers of Russia? But what has happened? We see great America today; we see great France and rising Russia—all the work of those who had the courage to stick to their convictions; so in a short while we will see a new Africa, not of slaves, but of free men. Not of an autocracy, but of the most liberal democracy possible to man. Let us, wheresoever we are, remake ourselves in determination and purpose, in serving the great cause of African redemption, and in carrying out the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. As the forces of opposition line up against us, let us, as a race, stand firm, and we will break down all barriers; we will scatter from our path all opposition. Men, I say, it is only a question of time. P. S.—Let every Division, Branch, Chapter and member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association do the best possible to help the parent body in its financial appeal for carrying out of the program. Send in your reports and pay up your Assessment Tax. Pay your dues and thus you will help the great cause. M. G. No Reason for Misgivings and Doubt—Negroes Have Already Exhibited All the Qualities Necessary in the Strenuous Task of Nation-Building—U. N. A. Is Pointing the Way; Let the Real Men and Women of the Race Rally to Its Standard The Negro of the Western world was born in the school of Rhilanthropy, he lives in the school of chance, and invariably dies in the school of ignorance. Unsquificite philanthropy engenders laziness. Chance is fascinating but unreal. Ignorance is the curse of the ages. Genuine BAYER ASPIRIN Unless you see the "Bayer Cross" on tablets'you are not getting the genuine Bayer-Aspirin proved safe by millions and prescribed by physicians for 25 years. such a program, as this which foster holds no interest for the Negro who graduation from the college above not forth. Only for who possesses the highest conception of life, liberty, and the pursuits of happiness can afford to embrace Garvey's building a nation is the severest test to maintain any ambitious race or group can commit itself. Nationhood is the child of slavery and Marcus Garvey could have selected no more advantageous era than this to promulgate such an ideal. It comes at a time when the Negro stands out conspicuously in his achievements as conqueror of every known human and natural adversary of man. By advocating the building of a nation in Africa as the solution to our problem, Marcus Garvey drove a peculiar fear into the heart of the Negro, a fear based upon the magnitude of the program and the responsibilities to be born in the successful execution thereof. Herculeans Achievements Such a fear should give way to confidence supreme. The privations, the hardships, the peril of disease and death on the road to nationhood in Africa are but pimples beside that which the Negro overcame at the North Pole, the Panama Canal and Cuba, on the estates of the United Fruit Co. in the Central American republics, and on the battlefields of France, Palestine and Mesopotamia. In these regions the Negro in the role of soldier, laborer, and adventurer bullied railroads where one treacherous jungles of the winterland held away. He turned marshs and swamps into thriving cities and towns, bringing death from the drowned yellow fever, typhoid and tuberculosis. He converted the habitats of sharks and other sea deeds into flourishing ports and magnificent harbors. He was the deciding factor in the success of that great commercial institution known as the United Fruit Co. He made Todd Roosevelt famous and crowned Henry with imperiality. There is no climate, no human or natural condition that the Negro has not yet mastered. His is a physicist machine that has decided every important battle in which, physical prowess was the price of victory. God and nature have combined to make him the perilous specimen of supermanhood. Where then is the excuse for turning away from the path of nationhood? His own history of service to others belie him The U. N. J. A's Task The membership of the Universal Negro Improvement Association is a group apart on which the eyes of the world are centred, not in despair but in surprise and restlessness. To demonstrate to an anxious world that the Negro is deserving of a place in the bigger brotherhood of man, this is our task. We shall not have completed it until a powerful Negro nation in Africa shall have shed its civilizing influence and power throughout the universe. We are is guided in proportion to our independent achievements. The more we achieve independently the higher we climb in the scale of world power and universal respect. Building nation means much more than most of us can perceive just now. There are problems uniting us that will merit the highest and best in human intelligence. There are obstacles in the distance of which we dare not conceive. Our common problem. The only thing that matters is our knowledge of man. With new discoveries through science and chemistry, greeting us daily, nation building in Africa by Nigroes should prove less vigorous than nation building for others has been to them. Gurvayism challenges the race to produce its scientists and chemists. VANCOUVER, B. C., Dec. 29. A number of British-born residents of the United States who came to Canada for Christmas have found themselves barred from returning to America because of a sudden tightening of the immigration laws. Many have businesses in cities on the Pacific Coast. Protests and appeals have been forwarded to Washington. manclers, and statesman, its historians and educators, its industrial and commercial wizards. To decline such a challenge is to be branded as a coward. We owe our progenitors a monument, not or cowardice but of glorious manhood. Let that monument be nothing less than a nation in Africa, representative of their sacrifices; their prayers, and our own conception of life, liberty, and the pursuits of happiness. Better Class Italians Also Outstripping Americans — Complacency is Blamed—Worse in Country Than in City SYRACUSE, Dec. 27.—"The Jewish boy in New York City—and the better class Italian boy—have a zeal for study that puts to shame the boy of native American parentage." Dr. Avery W. Skinner of the State Department of Education told an audience of Academics Principals in convention here today. Referring to the "complacency of students in high school these days," Dr. Skinner said too many "seem satisfied with a passing grade and this attitude in more marked today in the country schools" than in the city schools, and particularly among the American born to our shame it must be said." Dr. Skinner described having seen whole families of foreigners faithfully studying their lessons, in tenements on the east side of New York, and then he inquired, "How many families of our own American stock all down after supper to study?" In the last six or seven years, the educator revealed, "there has been an abnormal increase in the number of high school pupils in the State, statistics showing 100 per cent more boys and girls enrolled." "They are drawn from all levels of society, from all races and, sometimes I think, from all grades of intelligence," he explained. "As a result we have a mass problem which some of us in our teaching twenty-five years ago, did not face." A similar pressure of numbers has come to bear on the colleges. Dr. Skinner pointed out, as he reviewed some of the measures used by higher educational institutions to "choose the cream of applicants." "Use of the commercial course as a damping ground or education waste hasket for the lower levels" was denounced by Dr. Skinner. "We are not only educating for making a living, but we are educating for life," he said, remarking too many pupils have been taking the commercial course "to get a job as typist or stoneographer." THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JANUARY 8, 1927 TO THE NEGROES OF HARLEM TO THE NEGROES OF HARLEM THE BAMBOO INN, a Seventh avenue cabaret and restaurant owned and operated by Chinese, is drawing the color line, closing its doors to Negroes, so that white patrons and Chinese, East and West, may meet indeed in frolic unconfined. This may be a blessing in disguise for Negroes, but the action is, nevertheless, monstrous, vicious and insulting. Negroes of Harlem instead of wailing and growing indignant should use a weapon, a very powerful weapon, which is in their hands—THE BOYCOTT. BOYCOTT THESE ESTABLISHMENTS and thus drive the Chinese out of Harlefm. Stop enriching them, and recapture an opportunity FOR NEGRO ENTERPRISE. A simple remedy this—the boycott—and one which every other race uses. Start now and bring these impertinent Orientals back to their senses.—Managing Editor, The Negro World. To Answer Charge of Conspiring With Two Other Dry Agents to "Shake Down" Speakeasies—Held in $7,500 Bail—Evidence Collected as Result of Investigation by Prohibition Administrator GAINING THE GOAL AT ANY PRICE THE NORDIC WAY Scientists May Assist Politicians to Solve South Africa Native Problem—Finding Excuses for Not Educating Natives Along Progressive Lines [Editor's Note—The following article, which appeared in a recent issue of the Rand Daily Mail, Johannesburg, South Africa, is repolled for the purpose of showing readers the during persistence of the white man in his plans to subjugate and rule the black man eternally. Here the old inferiority rabbit is again set down in black and white, and the scientists, with their moth-often propaganda, we are naively told, is to assist the politician in solving the Negro problem.] "SCIENCE AND THE NATIVES" Lecturing: dr. Johannesburg on Wednesday night Dr. M. S. Fick, psychologist of the Union Department of Mental Hygiene, referred to the highly interesting, and also highly controversial, question of the relative intelligence of natives and Europeans. The results of tests on natives, he said, had been to indicate their inferiority in South Africa just has a similar conclusion had been reached from tests applied in America to the Negro. It had also been found that the native stopped in mental growth at a much earlier age than the average white man. "These statements are definite, but it is obvious from a further passage of Dr. Fick's address that much research work has still to be done. It is possible," he states, "to argue that the intelligence of the native differs RICHARD E. WARNER, A STATE GOVERNMENT IN THE C. GARVEY, ARRESTED O To Answer Charge of Conspir Agents to "Shake Do $7,500 Bail—Evidence vestigation by Prohibiti Richard E. Warner, of 145 West 142d street, who earned the execration of Negroes three and a half years ago by his star performances as a government witness in the trial of the 110n. Marcus Garvey, is in the toils. The fat gentleman (he achieved corpulency not long after being—blessed with a federal appointment as a dry law snopper) is held in $7,500 bail to come up for hearing of the 13th inst. on a dry law graft charge. Whether Mr. Warner's inestimable service, against the cause of Negro freedom will earn him leniency remains to be seen. The discerning will prefer to opine that it will not, since hirclings of Mr. Warner's ilk are never held in any respect by the master. Snooping was never a glorious occupation, anyhow, even though it may have been eminently to the taste of the gentlemen aforementioned. The story of the arrest of Mr. Warner and (two follow conspirators) in as follows: (From the New York Herald Tribune, December 31) Three Negro prohibition agents attached to the staff of Major Chester P. Mills, prohibition administrator, were arrested posturing in Major Mills' office at 1 Park avenue, charged with complying to accept bribes from proprietors of spokeasies. The men were arrested by deputy United States marshals on warrants issued by Commissioner Garrett W. Cotton, which were based upon a complaint made by Assistant United States Attorney J. Edward Lumbard, Jr. The agents are Jezz Harvey, or 64 Horton alone New Rochelle Richard DR. JOHN A. WILTSHIRE of Ancon, Canal Zone, Republic of Panama, who has donated C25 to the Rohabilitation and Expansion Fund. from ours not so much in quantity as in kind. The difference is important, and the inference which may be drawn is that further testing under expert guidance must be conducted before educational policy can be seriously changed. At the same time, experience and common sense would seem largely to support another of Dr. Flick's conclusions. 'Our intelligence tests,' he remarked, 'correlate highly with the ability to get on in school, and the native does badly in these tests. This surely indicates that we must provide the native with a different type of school.' "Many people have for years urged that the natives should not be educated along European lines, and the intelligence tests, so far as we have gone, appear, if we may judge from Dr. Flick's observations, to favor their view. For that reason it is to be hoped that the scientists will continue their researches. The problem, is one of vital concern, and any light which can be thrown upon it must be to South Africa's advantage. In fact, science can do a great deal, to assist the politicians to solve the whole native question." WAR WITNESS OF THE CASE AGAINST MARCUS ON DRY LAW GRAFT CHARGE Impiring With Two Other Dry down" Speakeasies—Held in Collected as Result of Ini- cion Administrator E. Warrier, of 145 West 142d street, and Joshua Dickson, of 49 West 135th street. After the arrest, which was made at 11 o'clock in the morning, the man were arranged before Commissioner Cotter and held in $7,500 ball each for a hearing on January 13. In the afternoon Hyman Cassel, whites, of 2749 University avenue, the Bronx, and Arthur Briggs, a Negro, of 49 West 135th street, who lives in the same house as Dickson, appeared before Commissioner Cotter to answer charges of having been the men who collected money for the agents from the appeasakers. They plained not guilty and were held in $6,000 bail each for a hearing on the same day as the others. The avidenon ion which the complaint against the man was based was obtained as the result of an investigation instigated by Major Mills. "There are probably a number of grafting agents in the Prohibition Department who have never been caught," said Milla Mills yesterday. "Speak-onies are not the only gritting of crooked agents. The grafters go after legitimate permit holders inleg. In the case of speak-onies the money is paid for protection. But legitimate permit holders may pay a fine agents for possible favors in the future, or in the fear that the agents will make themselves unpleasant if they are not paid burles. "We are getting rid of each person just as soon as we discover them, but I again wont to warn all legitimate permit holders to notify the department as soon as any agent attempts to shake them down for any money." 135th St. Library Notes The first "Book Evening" of the New Year will be held at the 135th Street Library Thursday, January 4 at 8:33 Mrs. May Lamborton Becky critic on the "Fairing Review of Literature," will speak on "The Art of the Detective Story."

U.S. OCCUPATION IN NICARAGUA NOTLY ASSAILED Senators Borah and Wheeler Say Marines Are in Republic at Rest of Bankers - Action Callett Comio Opera and Violation of Constitution WASHINGTON, Dec. 28. -- Senator Burton K. Wheeler, of Montana, announced tonight that unless American marines were withdrawn at once from Nicaragua he would introduce a resolution in the Senate next week, calling on the Administration to "cause intervention" and withdraw the battleships, from Nicaragua waters and forces from Nicaraguan soil. Senator Wheeler in a statement scored the action of the Administration severely and intimated American banking interests were back, of what has been done. Senator Bornh; after a conference with Secretary Kellogg, issued a statement once more opposing intervention and calling for removal of American forces from Nicaragua as soon as it can be ascertained that American life and property are safe. Meantime, intimations are given that this government will soon withdraw its forces, but these are officially depleted. "I am wondering whether Secretary Kellogg has become so interested with the Gilbert and Sullivan fever that is now sweeping the country that he is going to stage an American version of "The Pirates of Penzance" on the little state of Nicaragua. "The actions of the Administration in its dealings with the Central American republic is either opera bourge or else it is a shameful tragedy. It is evident that the people of the world are either going to laugh at us or curse us. "I am ignorant of whom the master of the show is. Some believe it is the snooksmaker of the White House, while others claim it is the Secretary of State. At all events, I propose to find out whether the Senate of the United States approves the actions of the Administration in its attempt to bully the people of Nicaragua by the use of our marines and gunboats into accepting a government foisted upon them contrary to the provisions of their own constitution, and in my humble judgment, in connivances with one or two American bankers. "Unless the American marines are withdrawn from Nicaragua, I shall introduce a resolution in the Senate immediately upon its convening, calling upon the Administration to cease its intervention there and to withdraw our battleships from Nicaragua waters and our marines from their soil. They are there, in violation of the Constitution of the United States. They are there in violation of the principles upon which this government was founded. They are there upon the filmry protest, according to the spokesman of the White House, to protect American property and American lives. Someone has sold they were there to protect the American continent from the spread of Bolshieism. "Only those simple-minded souls who still believe in a Santa Claus can be fooled by such hypocrisy." In Senator Borah's statement he said the government should be "vigilant against being tricked into intervention" and he favored withdrawal of forces as soon as it could be ascertained that Americans were reasonably safe. Senator Borah was asked whether he had reason to believe there would be an early withdrawal of American forces. He would not predict that, but he indicated that he saw signs of the government policy being modified. He made it plain he did not look for intervention by this government. He said: "On the heels of the denial today by the State Department that the government was maintaining a censorship over communications to and from Nicaragua, Dr. T. S. Vaca, Sacasía's representative here, gave out a statement in which he cited specific instances of the refusal of the Postal Telegraph Company to accept his messages." MEXICAN PAPER DENOUNCES J. L. S. IN CENTRAL AMERICA MEXICO CITY, Dec. 20.—"Who is the heralded American respect for the rights of small nations?" "Execlolon" asks, authoritatively today in a vitrificio article filled with sargasm dealing with the landing of marines in Nicaragua, in which Woodrow Wilson and President Coblidge are equally assailed. The statements of the article are accepted in some circles here as expressing the omal views on the attitude of the United States in Central America. The article declares: "Wilson, that master of hypocrisy and peridly, declared war on the central European powers to defend the rights of smaller nations. The world then accalmed him as the redeemer of humanity, as he lifted the United States to its great power and made it the richest nation in the world, for which 50,000 Americans were killed in Europe." Then Mr. Coulidge depleted on p. "Turtlenail model man who chants Christmas carols, is said to have declared that the United States champions the rights of small nations. "Unfortunately, it is not honesty, but bad faith, perplexity, hypocrisy and personal gain which characterize American diplomacy." says "Excelsior."

From, Many Parts of the World to Be Represented (From the South African Worker) In the middle of January, 1927, a conference of all colonial-oppressed people will be held at Brussels, Belgium. The conference will be of first-rate international importance. Not only will it be the first conference of its kind, and have representatives from nearly all the colonies and semi-colonies from all over the world, but it will be the first step towards bringing nearer to realization the aim of the labour movement of the whole world, namely, the bringing about of unity between the oppressed workers of the colonies and the oppressed workers of the imperialist countries. Nationalist revolutionary organizations from all over the world will participate in the conference, but the basis of the conference will no doubt be the colonial trade unions. World-Wide Support The countries at present menaced by imperialist attacks were the first to support the conference. The national government of Canton, the government of Mexico and the governments of other countries threatened by imperialist invasion have declared their willingness to support the conference and will send delegates, to it. Besides these the provisional committee of the conference has received about 400 endorsements from labor and progressive parties all over the world. There will also be representatives from the national committee of Syria, the Koumintang party of China, the professors of the Canton, Peking and Shanghai universities, the Nationalist parties of Egypt and Soudan, the Nationalist parties of the Dutch East Indian, American Anti-Imperialist League, the American Negro, Labor Congress, the Hindustan Gadar Party, and others. The All-India Trade Union Congress, the Mexican Trade Union Congress, the Chinese Trade Union Congress, the British Trade Uniones, and it is hoped the South African Trades Union Congress, the Industrial and Commercial Workers' union of Africa, and other South African organizations of oppressed peoples will be represented. Colour Bar to Be Discussed A provisional agenda has already been fixed, and amongst the chief points to be deliberated upon, are (3) Reports on the oppression of the imperialist powers in the colonies and semi-colonies; the speakers will be representatives from all oppressed nations; (2) the emancipation movement of the oppressed nations, and its support by labour and progressive organizations in the imperialist countrie (Continued on page 3) Sugar-Coated, Tablets, Rich in Vitamines, Now Taking the Place of Nasty Tasting, Vile Smelling Cod Liver Oil You can feel like a football player "ranin" to go after you jake McCoy's Cod Liver Oil Comp Tablets for 30 days.

Marquis Garvey and their continued confidence in his leadership; expressing appreciation of the labors of his wife in the interest of the organization and her husband's release; and thanking the executives, especially Messrs. Toote and Lord, trustees of the property, for their able and devoted service. : The text of the speeches was as follows; MISS HENRIETTA DAVIS'S. 1 ADDRESS Lady Henrietta Vinton Davia, Fourth Asst. President-General, spoke as follows: "I tender you the greetings of the season, a very, very happy and prosperous new year. We have just passed 19.6, a most trying year to the Universal Negro Improvement Association, but we must profit by the experiences of 1926 and so make 19.7 a banner year. We must become more determined, we must, become stronger, we must become more resolute in putting over the program of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. A Splendid Fiat "I wish to heartily congratulate those who came forward last week so nobly, so generously, so unselfishly and so grandly. I am proud of you.

It believes in the purity of the Negro race and the purity of the white race. It is against rich blacks marrying poor whites. It is against rich or poor whites taking advantage of Negro women. It believes in the spiritual Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man. It believes in the social and political physical separation of peoples to the extent that they promote their own ideals and civilization, with the privilege of trading and doing business with each other. It believes in the promotion of a strong and powerful Negro nation in Africa. UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION MARCUS GARVEY, Founder and President-General WHEN WHITE PERSONS ARE MOBBED N those Slates where mob law most generally prevails no provisions have ever been made for dealing with mobocrats who lynch white persons, the presumption being that white persons would never mob white persons. Mob law grew and flourished with the understanding that Negroes only were to be its victims, the theory, being that law and legal process were made for white persons and was too good for Negroes. That fiction still figures largely in mob psychology. But time and changed conditions, and the growth of white criminal class which does not respect color at all in carrying out its desperate purposes, are gradually undermining and making of no moment the former condition of things. The white mob has turned on white offenders so often of late as to make it plain that the law will not tolerate the mobbing of white persons. The law will wink at the mobbing of white persons. This is all right, because in the end the principle will triumph that the law will not wink at the mobbing of either white or black persons. It is bound to work out that way because there is no other logical way, for it to work out and save civil government from functioning properly, and that point was reached many years ago in many States which are beginning to see and reform the error of their ways. Down in Coffee county, Georgia, a white man murdered a female relative as the best way of keeping peace in the family, perhaps, but his white neighbors did not regard the matter as he did, and so formed themselves into a mob and lynched him. The judge of the circuit had a backbone and got the grand jury busy on the case, and indicted nine of the mobocrats, one of them a Georgia colonel, and the judge sentenced them to varying terms of imprisonment, the good colonel getting a life sentence. The nine were much surprised, as they were not looking for any such outcome. The governor of Georgia has offered a reward of $1,000, to which the grand dragon of the Ku Klux Klan has added $500; for the apprehension and conviction of members of the mob who in Toombs county kidnapped and unmercifully beat Wimberly E. Brown of Lyons, an attorney, because he took part in prosecuting members of a mob who lynched a white man last July. A special term of the grand jury has been ordered for the third Monday in January. This is all as it should be but not as it has been. If Georgia has turned against the mob it has a better day before it. TWO YOUNG WOMEN STUDENTS OF LIBERTY UNIVERSITY LIBERTY UNIVERSITY on the James River has just begun its existence as a distinct school for Negro young people, in which they may learn something about themselves and their race, and about Africa, their Motherland, which they could not learn in other race schools, nor in the white schools open to them, because such things are not taught them in those schools. To be taught that the Negro has as many rights as any other racial group and that he needs a country and flag of his own in order to make effective his rights, is something new in Negro education. It has, however, taken root in the United States and in Africa, and it is bound to grow in favor with the Negro people everywhere. The establishment of Liberty University by the Universal Negro Improvement Association, therefore, was a necessary thing to do, and having done it it is the business of the members of the association to see to it that the university has all of the money and all the students it needs properly to function. The success of Liberty University will be an inspiration to Negro people in all lands. The members gathered in Liberty Hall Sunday night, December 26, were made glad and inspired by the presence of the first two students to enroll at Liberty University. They were both from New York city and were perfectly at home in Liberty Hall. And they are highly intelligent young women. They know what Liberty University stands for and what they are attending it as students to secure for themselves. That will prove to be more than half their victory. The young students are Miss Genevieve Baker and Miss Roma. When called upon they made brief but eloquent addresses in glorification of Marcus Garvey and Liberty University. They talked like young people who appreciate the great opportunity given them to get such an education as they desire, and they left the pleasing impression that when they secure the education in the usual course they will make the most of it to promote the best interests of the Negro race. That is the spirit which we desire each young person who seeks an education at Liberty University shall carry into his student work and his work when he shall graduate and face the problems of life. May Liberty University grow in strength and usefulness with the coming and going of the years. T. THOMAS PORTUNE Editor MARCUS GARVEY Managing Editor NORTON G. G.

HOLD UP THE HANDS OF THE HIGH EXECUTIVE COUNCIL WE have had ringing appeals from President-General Marcus Garvey and from Acting President-General Fred A. Toote and the High Executive Council for a close-up of the ranks by the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and for renewed determination to carry forward the work of the association during the year 1927. There can be no retreat, we are told, and we all feel that there can be none. We must go forward to the high calling which is in Marcus Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Others may do as they will; with their unbelief in organization and definite program of race development and conservation of race resources, but the members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association have been educated to look at the matter the other way, and they are obligated to the sacred work of making effective the vital principles which they have adopted as their own, to save and protect the rights and interests of the race for the advantage and benefit of the race, and they will prove true to their principles, because it has become a habit with them to do so. In his open letter published in the last issue of The Negro World, Acting President-General Fred A. Toote, among other things, stated the case eloquently in the following paragraph: Africans at home and abroad have caught the vision and will continue to believe that they ought to conduct their own national affairs. They can never again become discouraged because of the undemocratic conduct of the nations of the world. We can afford to be patient, for national power and self-government are not small prizes to be won in a day. We must progress, no matter how slowly, because nothing lies in retreat except perpetual economic slavery and oppression. We must carry on with zeal and confidence, feeling assured that we are bound to win if we persevere. Members who are inclined to weariness at times and, in a weak moment, feel that our calls for funds are too frequent, must remind themselves of the size of the great program which must of necessity require thousands of dollars to carry on. This fight for freedom and liberty is the biggest thing that the Negro has attempted in the history of the race. Let us put aside every doubt as we enter the new year and resolve to assist with zeal, patience and perseverance in putting over the great program. Now, then, hold up the hands of the High Executive Council as we go along in the year 1927, as by so doing we shall hold up our own hands and the hands of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the hands of the Negro people everywhere. It is a good and glorious work. NATIONAL BANK PLANNED FOR LIBERIA MR. OSCAR HUDSON, who alleges that he is Liberian consul at San Francisco, according to several newspaper references we have seen concerning him, has just returned from Liberia, with the announcement that "the Liberian government is sponsoring a national bank, capitalized at a million dollars, 20 per cent. of which will be subscribed by the Liberian government and 40 per cent. will be offered to American Negroes." What becomes of the remaining 40 per cent. of the capitalization Mr. Hudson does not appear to have stated. Perhaps it will be offered to Liberian citizens, and, then, it may be held in reserve by the promoters, who, if they should possibly be members of the government, would with the 20 per cent. taken by the government, make 60 per cent. of the stock. If that is the way the cat will jump, why did not Mr. Hudson say so? It is natural that the promoters should want to control a voting majority of the stock of the bank, but the promoters of the bank are not named by Mr. Hudson. Who are they? Negroes in the United States who are expected to subscribe 40 per cent of the stock of a Liberian bank sponsored by the Liberian government will have to be shown who controls the 40 per cent of stock unaccounted for. If it is to be controlled by the members of the government, it is not the expectation that they will pay for it but accept it in payment for their good offices. If this should turn out to be the case is would leave only 60 per cent. of the capital stock to be purchased at its face value, and on the face of it it is not worth anything. If the people of Liberia have not in nearly a century of existence been rich enough to establish a bank, the question arises, are they rich enough to do so now? Evidently they are not, as they export the American Negro to subscribe for 40 per cent. of the stock. Farm Loan Mortgages WASHINGTON, Dec. 91.—Colored farmers will be interested in the information that the Federal Farm Loan Board has ruled that while a farmer borrower has no legal right to pay off his mortgage within five years from the date of execution, the acceptance of such payment is not prohibited to either Federal or joint stock land banks, where unforeseen circumstances arise, making it to the interest of the borrower to pay. Should a land bank accept such payment, it may collect from the borrower such a sum as will reimburse the bank for the expense of making the loan. C P. B. We take the position that we do in this matter because we have no great deal of confidence in the present government of Liberia. In their dealings with the Universal Negro Improvement Association they have been very high handed and arbitrary, and in their concessions of rubber and other land rights to the Firestone Rubber Company, we feel that they have betrayed the best interests of the people of Liberia and of the Negro race, because they have practically placed themselves into the hands of an American corporation which already dictates the policy of the government as far as selecting the American diplomatic and fiscal agents are concerned. The Liberian-Bank loan will bear a lot of watching, with the little information about it we now have. Justices Share in $174,000,000 Refund WASHINGTON, Dec. 28 — Justices of the United States Supreme Court shared in the $174,000,000 Federal refund of taxes illegally collected, it was announced today. The refund payments included sums to Chief Justice William H. Taft, $84-798, Justices Geo. H. Sutherland, $84-488, Placer Butler, $8.801; Edward T. Sanford, $1.721. Federal judges throughout the country received refunds as a result of a court decision last year holding that their salaries were not taxable. SOUTH AFRICAN NATIVES WORKED AS SLAVES IN THE GOLD MINES Labor Member, of Parliament Does Some Plain Speaking Says No Country- Can Endure Built Up On Slave System Describes Horrors From the Rand Daily Mail, Johannesburg, November 19 Mr. W.J. Snow, M.L.A.; addressing a meeting of his constituents at Salt River during the lunch hour yesterday, spoke of his visit to Johnnesburg and the Reef with the members of Parliament and others who recently saw the mines at the invitation of the chamber. "I have been wondering all along what was the real object of this visit to the mines and why it was that we members of Parliament and editors of newspapers were taken up there and placed in the Carillon Hotel and treated like lords and dukes," he told. "I have wondered exactly what we were wanted for whether we were invited because they loved us or yet there was not something else. This morning the most article on the gold mining industry in the Cape Times, in my opinion, gives the real reason why members of Parliament and editors of newspapers were brought together to visit the mines. At the present time there are lots of things in the air. There is a government in power today which says that an industry must exist on a civilized basis. The time has passed when an industry can exist on slave labor. "Even today, with all the improvements that have occurred, the gold mining industry rests on a foundation of what is nothing more nor less than slave labor—black labor. They are not free men at all; they are not men; they have no rights at all. Men who work on the mines simply have duties to perform. I have gone to the Government Areas mine right underground, and I found down there a raw native lying on his back four or five thousand feet below, holding the great drill boring a hole through the hard rock and getting ready for the blasting with white miners supervising. "I have heard a lot of talk about white miners not doing any work. I did not see any white men loading in the mines up there. They have all to work hard, even if it is only supervising the native. They have to provide the brains, and the natives supply the manual force." Feeding of the Natives After the natives had done their hard day's work, the speaker added, they went to their compounds; they were supposed to be free men. He saw them line up for their food; they passed a window and a man stood with a spade. As they come up with a tin he took the spade and shot off a great lump of mealie meal, or whatever it was, and flopped it into the dish. (Laughter.) "That is the foundation on which the gold-mining industry is led," proceeded Mr. Snow. "It is a pretty rotten foundation. When people start talking about the flag and things of that kind we have to remember that no country can become great which is built up on such a rotten foundation as that." "Today the final article in the Cape Times gives the show away. In effect it says that what is wanted is for the trade unions to stop their agitation and the Labor Party to stop talking about this thing. Their attitude is: 'We want all the restrictions removed; get as many natives in as you can to get the gold out of the ground, and let the rest of the country go to the deuce. Trade unions and the Labor Party will never, as long as they have any breath left in them, give way and allow this state of affaire." Step to "Slave System". We have got to a certain pass now, and this country is going to be built up on a civilized basis. We are going to put a stop to this slave system. "That is the real reason," the speaker continued, "why we men were invited by the Chambor of Mines—because they want to do justices, they like with the industry; get their labor where they like, and let the rest of the country go hang. The Labor Party is not going to allow that. We shall see to the bitter end. We shall see to that the flag stands for freedom of labor and the freedom of the people who will live in South Africa long after the millionaires have departed." Mr. Snow said that he would tell them more about his tour next week. Before speaking of the gold mining industry Mr. Snow referred to Johannesburg and the coal industry. Johannesburg, he said, was a wonder city. Yet almost within a stone's throw of its magnificent city hall it had slums as bad as anything he had seen in Whitechapel or in any town in England. Johannesburg, with all its fine buildings and its wonderful layout, the member declared, rested on a pretty rotten foundation. Indians, Aboriginals, Test the Alien Laws WASHINGTON. Dec. 28.—Th. optional American—the Indian today protested to the United States Government that he should not beFGarded as an alien. At the instance of the Council of the Six Nations, the most venerable and noted governing body of North American Indians, an attempt to resist the application of the Immigration Law to the continent's aboriginal population was commenced. It follows the Labor Department's order to deport Paul Diabo, an Ironoqui Indian of the Coughanawa Reservation, Quebec Province, Canada, from the United States after he had obtained an ironworker's job in Philadelphia. The Federal courts will be asked to reinstate the right of the Indiana to pass the boundary line between the United States and Canada as freely as their forefathers, in a test case on Diabo's exclusion. You will be what you will to be; Let failure find its false content In that poor word, "environment." But spirit scorns it, and is free. It masters time, it conquers space. It cows that boastful trickster, cha And bids the tyrant Circumstance Ungrown, and fill a servant's place. The human will, that force unseen; The offspring of a deathless soul, Can hew a way to any goal, Though walls of granite intervene. Be not impatient in delay, But wait as one who understands, When spirit rises, and commands; The gods are ready to obey. HEALTH TOPICS The days of the community drinking, cup should long ago have become urtishing of the past. But now and then we see places where one cup or glass is used by every member of the family, or any one who decides he would like a drink" as he passes by it. This custom is one which should be condemned and discontinued. It is a dangerous and unhygienic practice. Diseases are likely to be transmitted from one person to another in this manner, and a great deal of slickness may occur for this reason. Today when health rules and ways to keep healthy, are so widely known we should expect everyone to remember not to use a cup or glass which other people have used before it has been thoroughly washed. Long ago, Marco Polo, the famous traveler, said that the natives of India did not use common drinking vessels, even in the thirteenth century. Writing of his travels, he said: "... they drink out of a particular kind of vessel, and each individual from his own, never making use of the drinking pot of another person." Many of us can still learn a lesson from Marco Pole's writings. Do not use a drinking cup or glass that another person has used. Be certain that all drinking cups are thoroughly washed after they are used. President Sees Prosperous 1927—Few Are Idle Secretary Davis Says President Sees Prosperous 1927—Few Are Idle Secretary Davis Says From The New York World WASHINGTON, Dec. 28—President Coolidge feels the year 1929 has been satisfactory to business from virtually every standpoint, and draws near its end with prosperity still running at high tide. His review of conditions, given out through a spokesman, carefully avoided a forecast of what may be expected in 1927, but it was obvious that the President detects no sign of a slump. Business formed a topic at the cabinet meeting this morning, with Secretary of Labor Davis reporting increased opportunity for employment, particularly in New York and New England. The country is well provided with capital, skilled labor, and raw materials the spokesman said, Mr. Coolidge thinks people generally—are receiving good incomes and are willing to make expenditures that call for more production. Nobody can tell when conditions may change, the spokesman said, recalling that at the close of last year, there was an impression that a business slump was just around the corner, but it didn't appear. The President finds much satisfaction in the fact that manufacturing is moving along at more than the ordinary rate and the railroads are receiving large incomes. Fundamentally, the President believes, the country is in a sound condition. The man of courage overcomes the trials and temptations of life; he commands success; he renders sound judgment; he develops personal influence and a forceful character and often becomes the mentor of the community which he serves—Human Culture Digest. EDITORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PRESS Time and science are going to give the Negro his rightful place in the civilization of the world, and the effort now being programmed to defeat him of what justice and history entitled him to will fall of its purpose because of its own wickedness.-Atlanta Independent. A great success is made up of a lot of little ones. The man who fills a position of honor and trust has allied many smaller positions of trust. The man who has charge of ten thousand men has had charge of many small squads; and before he had charge of a small squad he first had charge of himself.-St. Paul Echo. By fattory and other methods we are easily divided and conquered. We are thwarted in putting over large programs or securing those things which we are entitled. We have got to stop being fooled. We have got to be united. All our weakness lies in discord, all our strength is in our union. -Omaha Monitor. So the year ends, just like a life onds. A year seems short; a life is short, and we must crowd a lot into that life if we expect to leave for portory something that will make the world a little better. If we are going to leave something behind pleasant memories, we must of necessity render Don't Beat Around the Bush With What You Have to Say If you have anything to tell me, say it. Don't beat around the bush and prepare me for my news, or otherwise break it gently. A young man called to see me the other day and asked if he could have ten minutes of my time. I refilled that he could on two conditions—that he spend the first five minutes telling me what he wanted me to do; then he could take the other five minutes and explain why he wanted me to do it. I don't like to have people prepare me for things. I don't want anything led up to. I am quickly adjustable, and whatever may be your pews I can soon arrange my affairs to receive it. For people to think they must lead up to things or they must get me first in the proper mood to hear what they have to say is an impeachment of my intelligence. I am already in the proper mood. I am ready to hear your news. So out with it, no matter what it may be. This thing of preparing people to receive news recalls the story of an Irishman. An Irishman was killed in a mine disaster. As they were bringing home his body they deputed Mike, one of his fellows, to break the news to his widow. Mike went on ahead and when he met the widow at the door of her house he said: "Does the Widow McCann live here?" "No," she replied. "I am Mrs. McCann and my husband is a miner." "Like the dickens he is," said Mike. "Walt 'till you see what they're bringing up the steps." This is a good example of "breaking it gently." The fact is that the experienced mind can adapt itself quicker to anything else than to mystery. Whatever the bad news may be, we can digest it in time, but one thing we cannot stand is to be kept in the dark. New Path to Sleep Rests in Ten Words NEW HAVEN, Conn. Dec. 29. Suggestion as a path to sleep, calm and restful, may often be found in tin words; each to be thought of in its full-cleaning, says the Rev. Dr. Charles R. Brown, dean of Yale Diversity School. He has used the formula himself and through it many times had ended wakefulness. Each word should be thought of slowly and separately until restlessness disappears and the subject is mentally in harmony with the meaning of these words, which in order are quietly, easily, restfully, trustfully, patiently, sorenely, peacefully, joyously, courageously, confidently. Colored Population Outgrows White TARBORO, N. C., Dec. 31. According to a report made by W. H. Pittman, Superintendent of Schools in Edgecombe county, the rural Negro population in Edgecombe county is increasing more than twice as rapidly as the rural white population. This is in contrast to a number of rural districts in Georgia, Florida and Alabama, in which the Negro farm and rural population is becoming almost "threadbare." C. P.

The last speaker of the evening was our new president. Mr. Perry Love, who made, some en- couraging remarks. He said with the cooperation of the members he intended to make this the largest division in the Middle West. A telegram was read from Amy J. Garvoy. We intend to accomplish great things here in Milwaukee under the leadership of our new president, Mr. Love. *After the taking of the offering, the meeting was closed with the sing-ng of the national anthem. S. E. RANGUBRE, Ropbrter. Two enthusiastic mass meetings were held in Liberty Hall on Sunday, December 26, at which time the members, and friends vigorously protested against the continued imprisonment of the Hon. Marus Garvey. The program at 3:30 p. m. was typical of the spirit of Garveyism as the audience vociferously applauded the various 'spartans'. The Hon. S. A. Haynes, president, bravely outlined the historic events leading up to the persecution of our leader. He called upon every man and woman of color throughout the world to so acquire themselves that three have so acquire Mr. Garvoy in prison that he would hold Mr. Garvoy in prison no further desire to keep him there. Mr. W. H. Abington, second vice-president, and Mr. A. E. Sinigal of the Legions were loud in their denunciations of the methods employed to keep the race enslaved. The address of the evening was delivered by Mr. William Attam, a native of West Coast, Africa. The speaker, who has traveled extensively on the West Coast told of the methods used there by white missionaries to exploit the land and keep the natives in ignorance of the truth. He allotted much enclosure when he said that he was, inapted to come to the United States because the white missionary for whom he worked as an interpreter told him that if he would come here he would see Christ and his white angels, walking the streets. For one solid hour Mr. Attam eloquently defended the principles of garvayism, rapped the hypocrisy of missionaries going to Africa with a Bible in one hand and a gun in the other, and beseeched those who hold Garvay bound to set him freg, or pay the penalty in Africa. The division sent Christmas greetings and a small purse to the received in Return a beautiful Christmas gift, inscribed, as well as a message by telegraph. These were given a big ovation as they were proudly read by the president. The speakers at 8:30 p. m. were Mr. August Woods of Primrose, p. mu., and Mr. T. M. Fisher, both of whom lauded the accomplishments of the association under the guidance of the Hon. Marcus Garvey. Mr. Fisher said that there can be no Christmas for the Negro so long as Marcus Garvey was behind prison bars. The president confined his address to the great immediate necessity of financing the parent body and so 'enable them' to carry out the bigger program. He made a passionate plan for the united co-operation of all. Several pledges were received for the New York Liberty Hall. The choir under Mrs. Willey Johnson gave a fascinating Japanese entertainment on Thursday, December 23, in aid of the building fund. On Christmas Eve the juveniles had a joyous time at a Christmas tree party given for them by the Rev. Zebedee Green and other officers. The concert on December 16, given by Mr. William Formley netted us a tidy sum for our building fund. We thank Mr. Formley and the ladies. MRS. LOUISE J. EDWARDS. Reporter.

If the white men would stop for a minute to think, he would not treat the black man as he is now freeing him. U. N. I. A. Misrepresented The white man should not become offended because the black man is now trying to protect himself. Marus Garvey Has been misunderstood among Negroes more than any other human being in the world. The Universal Negro Improvement Association has been misrepresented to the people. Marus Garvey is a prophet sent by God. The reason why the politicians, ministers and professors have fought Mr. Garvey so hard is because he has indulged to open the eyes of the community to justice. Today the same condition that exists in France, Italy and Russia would exist in America if the poor white man did not feel himself a little better than the Negro. If they ever decide to link up, the condition in America will be the same as that in Europe. White man, do not think for once that the American Negro is plotting against you. The American Negro has proven himself a friend to you, but you have not proven yourself a friend to him. You pass a law in some of your states that a black man can be burned and lynched and the federal law cannot do anything about it. You state that national laws cannot interfere with state laws. But let me tell you, this God that the Negro is serving is going to show to the white man that he is not satisfied with the laws that he, the white man, is executing and the injustices which he is heaping upon the Negro-race. If the white man of America expects to say himself, he must take a new attitude toward the Negro. The Negro of this Western world is beginning to think for himself. The only big mistake he has made in the past is in building such large churches and paying the ministers such enormous salaries, for nothing. Sorry to say, but some of these ministers have been working hand in hand with the enemies of the race by keeping his followers' minds in Heaven. That is not God's teaching. The Unnatural Negro Improvement Administration is trying to prepare the black man for what is coming. The world is far fermented and the clash is sure to come. We must be ready. God save America: Long live America! After, studying 2,500 ancient skulls and deciding their ages at time of death, T.

BROOKLYN MILITARY CENTER FOR MILITARY ADMINISTRATION OUR WOMEN and WHAT THEY THINK-Edited by Mrs. Amy Jacques Garvey "MAN'S INHUMANITY TO MAN" A FEW days ago we were attracted to an advertisement appearing in the New York Times, with headlines as follows: "Mass-meeting to protest against anti-Jewish excesses in Rumania," and listed among the speakers was Judge Julian W. Mack, who needs no introduction to our readers, he being the star in the final act of the farce, "Garvey Must Go!" Fate plays peculiar pranks with us poor mortals, for while the good judge is holding mass meetings and protesting against outrages on his people in Rumania, Negroes the world over are holding mass meetings and protesting against his imprisonment of their leader, Marcus Garvey. He is appealing "to enlightened public opinion of the world to stay the hand of Rumania," while Negroes plead to white America for justice and fairplay to their persecuted leader. There are 16,000,000 Jews in the world, and 400,000,000 Negroes. Both groups are persecuted wanderers without the protection of a government of their own, no flag and no aeroplanes. Yet the Jews are better treated than Negroes in all countries, because they control big finances and are large producers, while Negroes are poor consumers, dependent on other races for employment. However, during the last World War the Jews woke up to the fact that they needed a national homeland to give them prestige and protection. So they emerged from the conflict with the plum, "Palestine for the Jews." Since 1920 through the Zionist movement they have invested something like $15,000,000 in Palestine, and are bending every effort to make it truly a home for the oppressed Jews of the world. We may state here that Judge Mack is an ardent Zionist, in other words he believes that his people should become a national unit. In 1917 Negroes, too, caught the echo of the cry for self-determination for weaker peoples. Through their inspired leader, Marcus Garvey, they rallied to his slogan of "Africa for the Africans, those at home and those abroad." And for this laudable undertaking he has been ridiculed and persecuted by ignorant Negroes and selfish whites, resulting in his imprisonment. Even the erstwhile persecuted Jew of Eastern Europe becomes an one hundred per cent. American and adds his share to the misery of the Negro by hampering his nationalistic program. But opposition of Jews and Gentiles to African redemption will not stop it, because nationalism is what they are also striving for, so why shouldn't the Negro, the second largest race group in the world, also strive to get this permanent cure for all his ills. Isn't he a human being, with feelings, hopes and ambitions like white and yellow people? Why should he remain the servant of all men? Is he not one of God's masterpieces, and therefore arbiter of his own destiny? All honest and fair-minded person's will laud the Negro's efforts to work out his own salvation along national lines, and while they do nothing to help us, yet we thank them for leaving us stone. Negroes tried to run ships and were put out of business mainly by Jews, but fate again stepped in and when Jews tried to run their Palestine line, they failed. The only difference was that a Jewish district attorney prosecuted the Negro leader, and a Jewish judge sentenced him, but there was no Negro district attorney or judge or any action taken against the Jewish leader. The Palestine line failed—that's all. The rest is a closed book. While Jews and Negroes work for their respective homelands, pogroms in Europe and lynchings in America continue to take their toll; yet in the face of all this, the Jew is heartless enough to persecute the Negro. How does the honorable Jewish judge feel when he asks Almighty God to save his people from Rumanian outrages, knowing that one word from his own lips would bring joy to the hearts of millions of Negroes, and that word he refuses to utter. No, says he, let Marcus Garvey remain in prison. So let it be, says "To each his sufferings: all are Condemned alike to groan; The tender for another's pain, The unfeeling for his own."

THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, JANUARY 8, 1927 TIME TO RENEW OLD RESOLUTIONS TIME TO RENEW OLD RESOLUTIONS Forget the Past Mistakes and Earnestly Begin Again Somebody in a split of forgivable cynicism, has written the following: "Whereas I know how fickle is my moral constitution, she it resolved; on this New Year I'll make no resolution." Start Again With New Courage. Everyone has read the poem—beautiful enough in a sentimental way—which expresses the wish that there could be “a land of beginning again.” There is a time and a place of beginning again. Beginning all over again—beginning, not something new, not something that happens to be the vogue, but forgetting the past with all its blunders and errors and discouragements, and beginning with new courage, fresh hope and firm determination to Live life earnestly, honestly, profitably, cheerfully and lovingly. Not only the new year, but every new day is a new chance. This fact is the most eloquent proof of the mercy and patience and lenency of a loving God. No matter what the number or nature of the blunders of December 31, 1828, if on January 1, 1927, you behold your mistakes as many and grievous, are sorry for them and resolve to do better in the future, you may be sure that you have the entire co-operation of Heaven and the angels in your new attitude of mind and soul. Pleasing God Things is probably nothing so pleasing to the Infinita as the sight of a trawl moot taking fresh hope and courage and resolving to try yet again. The farmer trying to be more industrious, trying to build up his land and make it more productive; trying to be a still better provider, a more considerate husband, a more lenient and comrade-like father; the housewife trying to be more patient, more considerate with husband; more playful and congenial with the children—all this sort of trying, this beginning again; this renewing of old resolutions and good intentions is most clean and most beautiful even in the estimation of the gods. Many a modest soul is forever chiding himself for what he has failed id do, when all the while his, Good Angel is continuously recording those things that some modest soul is trying so hard to do. Let us return forvent thanks for this one fact; That there is a time and place for beginning again. Then let us forget the mistakes of the past days and weeks and years, and let us reilly, earnestly, cheerly, bravely begin again.—Household Journal.

The United States has just finished one of the most prosperous years of its history—a year of high marks in domestic and foreign commerce, high wages and small amount of unemployment, no labor troubles of national importance, and few distractions except murder mysteries and minor smarlings about the effects of prohibition. If these, conditions were general over the world they would not seem so unequal to us, but the fact is that we alone—among all nations, have abounded in prosperity. Great Britain is beset with worries over the decline of her commerce her industrialism, her prosperity; France is struggling to make her franc worth more than paper; Russia still feels the effects of her revolution; China is torn by civil war; Japan must worry about additional room for a rapidly expanding population; Italy is struggling to regain health and prosperity—all the nations of the world; large and small, have their troubles; we stand alone in a period of abundant prosperity—a giant among nations.—World's Work Magazine. Scientific Germany Expanding Today Germany is again extending her markets, largely because of continued leadership in research. This leadership is not the result of superior mental endowment; it is the result of superior support given to German scientists. Whatever chemical engineering has the strongest support. in the next decade, there the greatest achievements are likely to come in conserving heat, preventing epidemics, calling forth fertilizers from the air, putting the sun's rays to work, possibly taking gold out of the sea. Chemclents are constantly discovering new methods, as a result of which old factories are scrapped overnight.—W. T. Foster. Past and Present Flappers "In the old-days the girls, used to ask whether it was proper to go buggy-riding with the boys as they ask now whether they are cheapening themselves by going out joyfully, in automobiles. Just as much anxiety, too, they express over the necking and petting under the shaded, lamp in the parlor—although they used other terms—as in the stalled car along the lonely roads today. "The only difference is that the girls are much more canid nowadays."—Dorothy Dix.

You are the divine gift with whom God has blessed man . . . about whose origin Genesis has recorded a phantom allegory, that the Creator made you from the sib of a man. No! God created you as a statue in flesh and moulded you with His infinite skill as the most perfect being of His making. He chiselled you out in warm flesh, at the height of His perfected skill, as a noble work—By G. D'Annunzio. Believe in Yourself Believe in Yourself If I could give but three words of advice on the subject of success, I think they would be: "Belleva in Yourself"—not with a milk-and-water faith, but with a belief which knows no discouragement, a confidence which cannot be shaken. Achievement is largely a matter of faith in oneself. It is only those people who thoroughly believe in themselves and in their mission who bring out anything like the maximum of their ability. Distrusting our judgment, not depending upon it, not feeling able to decide anything of importance without others' help, continually seeking outside opinions and influence, is fatal to all originality, to all leadership.—Dr. O. Mardeh. YOUNG BLOOD THE MUSEUM OF THE WORLD *I am near 60 years, but I feel as young as I did at $0. I take a curv of Bulgarian Herb (Blood) Tea once or twice a week.

NELSON MANUFACTURING CO., RICHMOND, VA. NELSON'S HAIR DRESSING OCCIDENTAL IDEAS ENTER JAPAN'S STAGE By ADACHJ KINNOSUKE A recent contribution to the Shakespeare Memorial Theatre fund came from benefit performances of "Carolianus" given at the Tokio Imperial Theatre by admirers of Shakespearean drama among the actors and actresses of Japan. Shakespeare played on the boards of a great Tokio theatre, and by Japanese artists is a striking illustration of the influence the Occidental drama has gained in the face of the old stage of Nippon. Unbelievable though it may seem, Ibsen and Bernard Shaw as well as Shakespeare are no strangers to the Tokio theatres. In October, 1922, "Arms and the Man" was presented at the Imperial Theatre and received both critical and popular approval. Shakespearean dramas have achieved the dignity of tradition. Koshiro, who has been hailed by many European critics as the greatest among living Japanese notors, played the title role in "Jillus Cassar" at the Kabukusa Theatre not no long ago. And Ibsen has been presented on the Japanese stage times without number through such favorites as "A Doll House," and "Ghosts." There is scarcely one of our leading actresses who has not been, starred as Nora—from Miss Mori, Japan's pioneer actress, to Miss Mizutani, upon whom spotlights are centered just now. Movie Actress Sent to Hollywood Miss Mizutani has just returned from the United States, where she had been sent by the Cinema League of Western Japan to study the art and the developments of the photoplay in its native home at Hollywood. Her work will undoubtedly have a far-reaching effect, for she is considered by many as the one particular star among the younger actresses, of the empire. Movies, more than anything else, mothered the popular demand for a new school of dramatic art in Japan. It is no exagregation at all to say that the phenomenal triumphs of the Sawahso troupe and other artists are due largely to the missionary work of the silver screen. Cheaper Movia Plays The movie taught Japan's theatre-goers that they could see a play full of thrills and action in two or three hours. That was something utterly new to them. To see an old-fashioned Kabuki play they go to the theatre at 1 P. M. and stay until 10:30 that night. They take their family dinners along with them and eat them there. Nine and a half hours of dissipation now is too much of a. good thing for increasing numbers of Japanese. It touches their pocketbooks also. A nine-and-a-half-hour entertainment costs from two and a half to five yen. No manager could afford to give such a long program for less. The movie costs them about one-quarter that amount. And a new style legitimate play in four or five nots, taking less than three hours in the evening, is being given to the public at about one-half to one-third the BEAUTIFIER BEAUTIFIER Apply it like any ordinary cold cream and watch your skin become gradually clearer, salty, rather and, store all, good looking. This is the skin you want. Your skin will never grow. Don't delay! Every day counts against you! If you are in a cold room and you can't get the best coupon and send the cash with it. price of the old Kabuki entertainment. When the Japanese, awoke last to this fact, their demand for the new-style play, was insistent. It does not call for a prophet to see that the triumph of Occidental dramatic art, its technique and its ideal, on the Nippon stage is no passing fad. It is as permanent as it is profound. Puritanical Consors Another proof of the Occidental influence on Japanese drama is the reentrance of women players on the popular stage. For centuries the feminine roles on the Kabuki stage were played by "onnagata," male impersonators of women. That was as strange as it was unnatural, for the Kabuki was founded by a woman. Okuni was her name, a sacred dancer at the great shrine of Izumo. But no Puritans in or out of history were quite so puritanical as the official censors under Isemitsu, the famous third Tokugawa Shogun. In 1630, in the frenzy of moral purity, they prohibited women, young or old, to appear on the stage. Since then, for about 280 years, Japanese women were as extinct as the dodo in the world behind the footlights. It was entirely and directly due to the Occidental example and influence that in 1908 the Imperial Theatre calls for a certain number of young women applicants to be trained for the stage. Tokyo society lifted its eyebrows in a rather high and ugly angle. It was so shockingly revolutionary! When the now famous Miss Mori Kikuko 'answered' the call and entered the training course at the Imperial she was cut by all her schoolmates of the Atomik High School, from which she had just been graduated. Regal Patronage But Miss Mori and fourteen other pioneer girls who joined her made a brilliant entry and still more brilliant progress on the stage. When the Prince of Wales visited Japan in 1922, they were an established institution in the theatrical world, and Miss Mori played the leading role of Hanako in the classic play of "Doofi" for the entertainment of the help to the British throne. The Prince Regent of Japan accompanied the Prince of Wales to the Imperial Theatre as host. This was the first dramatic performance ever witnessed by a reigning Prince of Nippon in all the country's twenty-five centuries of history. For since the days of the gods, theatrical performances had been considered a low form of amusement and no gentlemen, let alone a Prince of the blood, permitted themselves to be seen visiting a theatre. The performance in which Miss Mori starred, literally opened a new epoch for the stage of Japan. A veal pal will have quite a company air it made as follows: Use a shank or some ribs of veal—about a pound, of meat—and cook it until tender in three pints of water with half a pound of fat heat, half a pound of fresh ham, one onion, two peppercorns, a blade of mace and a dash of nutmeg, cut, into, pieces. Lima a deep dish with pastry and place the veal in it, together with half a dozen small potatoes and an equal volume of button mushrooms. Reduce the stock to a pint, season it with a tablespoon each of flour and butter, salt and pepper to taste, then cover with a thick top crust. TRANSVAAL NATIVE WOMEN PROTEST AGAINST POLL TAX (From The Johannesburg Star) PORT ELIZABETH, Nov. 13.—Curious scenes were again witnessed today when a body of native women approached the chief magistrate to reiterate their former representations against the poll tax. Singing harmoniously the women, led by a small woman in heating time with a baton, walked in orderly array through the main thoroughfare of the city to the court house. At Queen Victoria's status in Market Square a halt was called and pointing to the statue, the women bowed their heads in prayer undisturbed by the passing traffic. Many of the women broke into sobs as their leader proceeded with her supplication. Three of their members intervened, the magistrate, who sympathetically advised them that the tax must be paid.—Reuter. How to Make Others Love You Be scaught after and admired. Exert magn- influence.
