"THE TIGER" Thousands of those in sympathy with Marcus Garvey and rooting for him in his splendid fight in a Federal Court for justice and the vindication of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in the year, 1923 were angered at the prosecuting attorney's reference to the great leader as "The Tiger." For, be it said in parenthesis, Mr. Garvey before the bar of American justice was fighting primarily not for Marcus Garvey, but for the good name and the very life of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, the greatest organization among Negroes, as far back as the mind can travel. "Gentlemen," said Assistant District Attorney Mattucks to the jury, winding up a splenetic oration, "shall we set the tiger loose?" And the gentlemen didn't. They released Mr. Garvey's co-defendants, Messrs. Garcia, Tobias and Thompson, but they decided to cage "the tiger." We have no doubt Mr. Mattuck's appeal to the prejudice of the jury was as effective with them as he wished it to be—chills must have run down the spines of those twelve good white men and true at the sight, conjured up for them, of a man of Marcus Garvey's breed and brains at the head of awakened millions of black men. But however happy the epithet, "The Tiger," was to a malignant prosecution, however distasteful the term to thousands of black men who were hoping against hope that Marcus Garvey would receive a square deal, we confess to no perturbation over the jungle appellation. Rather do we regard "The Tiger" as a splendid cognomen by which this remarkable leader of men may well be known in the days to come. For Marcus Garvey is the Tiger of Africa as assuredly and as completely as Georges Clemenceau is the Tiger of France. When war came and France's existence as a great nation was threatened, it needed a strong hand, an alert mind, a man of stern patriotism and adamantine will to steer the ship of state. Party strife was buried; then none was for the party and all were for the state: The best must rule. And Clemenceau was chosen. As premier of France, nay, dictator, civil and military forces were under his control. Generals took their cue from him or went into the discard. Unfettered, the greatest confidence reposed in him, he spoke for a whole nation in the life-and-death conferences in which he partook with the forces that had come to aid. He clawed remorselessly at the enemies of the common weal. He was satisfied with nothing but 100 per cent. efficiency, 100 per cent. patriotism. He put backbone in his people. The professional hecklers he silenced, and he consigned the moral weaklings to prison cells. He tackled every problem, every crisis, with a contagious optimism. He was a god to his countrymen, and they surnamed him "The Tiger of France." Today, his duty well done, his hand grown unsteady with advancing years, he no longer grasps the helm, but his unconquerable spirit still animates France. In his humble cottage by the sea daily he receives tokens of the love and esteem and gratitude of his countrymen. Tale of the slightest ache that comes to mar his bodily comfort is front page news for the world. Of such timbre, of such girth are tigers made. It was peculiar that Mack and Mattuck, both Jews, should have figured in Garvey's trial as judge and prosecuting attorney, respectively. It was as if some cynical master mind had decreed that members of a universally despised (though secretly respected) group should lead the assault on the newly reared citadel of the most despised (and secretly feared) race. It was as if some super-showman had arranged to furnish a blase world with the startling, if sorry, spectacle of Judge Mack, one of the staunchest supporters of Zionism (Palestine for the Jews), and Mattucks, a progressive young Jew, virtuously hustling the protagonist of African nationalism (Africa for the Africans), to prison confinement for the maximum term possible under the law. Mattuck, ambitious young Hebrew, using every wile, spurning no methods, however questionable, to convince twelve 100-percenters (who all the while, under their breaths, must have been muttering curses of prejudice that it was given to two Jews to influence them in their decision) that the greatest living Negro was a common felon, was a droll situation. Mattuck did his task well; he sent Garvey to Atlanta; he grieved a race. And still through him, unwittingly, his venerable fathers sent one word of cheer to that race. "Tiger!"

HAMPTON COLLEGE CLOSES DOORS AS STUDENTS STRIKE Strike Called, It Is Alleged, Following Lighting of Hall During Films to Prevent "Necking" Rockefeller, Jr., Asks for Statement NORFOLK, Va. Oct 16. According to an announcement made by Dr James E. Gregg, president of the Hampton, Normal Institute the students who went on strike a few days ago and caused the suspension of classes will not be taken back again. All but about 300 out of about 1,200 Negro students left for their homes following the strike and a suspension of studies. Only students acceptable to Dr Gregg and the faculty will be readmitted when classes are resumed October 25. It was announced today The strike followed an order from the faculty requiring that the assembly room be illuminated during the showing of motion pictures. Complaint had received the faculty that men and women students had indulged in mocking parties in the hall while lights were dim. About 400 students went on strike, refusing to attend classes or to take part in church singing. They named a committee which requested an audience with the faculty. The request was refused. Then the president ordered all classes suspended, and the scribling students were told to return to their homes. They were furnished with transportation and expenses. John D. Rockefeller, a large contributor to the institute, has asked for a statement as to conditions at the college. Dr. Gregg Lay, night issued the following statement in part. "An unfortunate series of events begins last Saturday night, October 8, has been marked by such insubordination and disorder among the students as to make it necessary to close the institute until further notice. The outbreak was precipitated by dissatisfaction with the lighting of Ogden Hall at a moving picture entertainment on Saturday evening. On Sunday morning the students in James Hall refused to admit the inspecting officers, and the whole body of students, aside from the choir, took no part in the singing at the morning and evening services. A large number of young men, possibly 400, absorbed themselves from their classrooms and shops. Students who absented themselves from classes and scheduled work are put on probation, such probation to be removed by the commandant as rapidly as evidence is given of satisfactory conduct and right spirit. "On Thursday morning the staircase was assumed. The administrative board thereupon felt obliged to pass the following resolution: "We have declared from the beginning that Hampton Institute cannot be carried on with students who are disorderly and lawless. We have welcomed and shall welcome back all students who give evidence of their sincerely purpose to co-operate with the officers and teachers in maintaining peace, order and the mutual friendliness and confidence without which no school can be truly successful. We shall require all who wish to return to apply in writing to the vice-principal for readmission. This application must be accompanied by a pledge of loyalty and obedience. Hampton Institute is closed until further notice." Finds Africa Just Like Main Street LONDON, Oct. 15 - T. H. Baxter, who has just returned from Africa after a tour from the Cape to Kanye, and had encounters with lions and was unable to discover a single witch doctor. He saw, however, natte women in flesh stockings and short skirts. While Gold Coast Papers Hit Education Methods Governor Seeks Light In South of U. S. HAMPTON INSTITUTE, Oct. 12. Sir Frederick Gordon Gugglsberg, governor of the Gold Coast, who recently arrived in New York to observe the educational institutions of the United States and Canada, and who is especially interested in the Negro schools in the Southern States, arrived at Hampton Institute October 8 and spent three days inspecting the work of that institution. Sir Gordon is one of the outstanding colonial governors of the British Commonwealth of Nations. While his achievements in various directions have been notable, his stimulation and direction of native education in the Gold Coast is of special interest to all concerned in the welfare of native people. The organization of the Prince of Wales University College at Ackmanota toward which the government, has appropriated three million dollars has received world wide recognition as a school whose instruction is arranged and practice based on the economic and social life of the Gold Coast population. Sir Gordon was born in Canada, educated in England, and has held various important positions in different parts of the British Empire. For several years he was director of engineering and service in West African colonies and during the World War he commanded several brigades on the western front in France. . . . Sir Gordon's inherent includes Richmond, Hampton Institute, Savannah, Penn School, Reubert, S. C. Tuskegee Institute, Ala., educational institutions at Nashville, Tenn, and other points of educational interest throughout the South. Emigration to Europe Now Exceeds Immigration In an analysis of immigration trends by the National Industrial Conference Board at 247 Park avenue, the board makes the assertion that the "Melting Pot" which until recent years assimilated an ever-increasing stream of aliens from the countries of Europe, has now begun to lose 20,000 more emigrants yearly than come to this country. Before the war the annual net gain of common laborers, from Europe averaged about 200,000 during the period between 1910-1914. During the last three years, since 1924, the report continues, the United States has actually been losing 20,000 more than the annual gain. Canada and Mexico, which are not subject to the quota limit, the report finds, have now become the chief source of supply for common industrial labor, furnishing together an annual average of 38,000 since 1924 And balancing emigration against immigration from all sources, the net gain in common industrial and farm laborers has been about 25,000 annually over that period. A further analysis shows that although immigration from Europe divides about equally between farm and common industrial laborers, emigration of the latter is about three times as great as emigration of the former. French Pair to Explore Africa by Truck PARIS. Oct. 11. Starting a tour of Africa by motor truck, Roger J. Lacor and Compute Pierre de Vartemont left the Automobile Club of France today for Marseilles. Both sponsors are twenty-two years old. They are driving a light truck which will be taken by boat from Marseilles to Rabat and thence toward Senegal, where recent uprisings cost many lives and through which they will be the first to pass by automobile. From Rabat they will go to Tchad, and thence into unexplored territory, hoping eventually to strike Tripoli. During this part of the journey they will be thrown entirely on their own ingenuity for food and supplies. They have set no true limit for the completion of the journey. THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1927. Approach of the Festive Season Should Mark Renewal of Efforts for Release of Hon. Marcus Garvey Officers, Members and Friends. Universal Negro Improvement Association. Dear Co-Workers—The encouragement, hope and inspiration that the Hon. Marcus Garvey has instilled in his own race, and in down-trodde humanity in general, is the intense concern of mankind the world over. People of all races and in all walks of live are freely voicing their sentiments in behalf of the release of the founder and President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association from Atlanta federal prison. We are again approaching the holiday season—Thanksgiving and Christmas. This is the time when we, with solemn retrospection and reverence, give thanks to the Creator for the many kindnesses and blessings of which we have been the recipients. There is nothing that could make our joy so complete; and bring our minds and souls as fully into harmony with the spirit of the season as would the release of the Hon. Marcus Garvey from the Atlanta Fedeal prison. Since February of this year the second application for pardon has been filed, and no decision has been given by the President. Therefore we ask that you immediately line up your members the task of not only writing President Coolidge, but writing and interviewing all influential men, who will in turn urge the President to grant our request. Therefore as the personal representative of the Hon. Marcus Garvey, founder and President General of The Universal Negro Improvement Association, I herewith do earnestly solicit every member and friend of our beloved organization to put forth their most tangible effort at this particular time. Even though we are holding things together at headquarters and acting on Mr. Garvey's instructions, yet we need his presence, and, above all, do not want him to suffer any longer in prison. Hoping to hear from you soon as to what you have done along the lines indicated, we are.

Negro Farms Exhibit At Georgia Fair Shows Much Progress ATLANTA, Ga., Oct. 10 - At the Southeastern Fair, held here last week, the Negro exhibit was a striking evidence of progress on the part of the Negro farms, homes and schools of the State. Occupying the whole floor of the agricultural building, it packed a space of 20,000 square feet with a remarkable display of farm, home and school products—the work of Georgia's best rural Negro citizenship. Nineteen county exhibits were in evidence, many of them elaborate and inclusive; a large number of schools contributed the best work of their pupils; and in addition there were individual exhibits running into the thousands, chiefly beautiful specimens of handicraft and needlework. On every hard wore encouraging evidences of diversified farming, soil improvement, seed selection, better marketing, meat production, and other characteristics of progressive agriculture. That the farm women are keeping pace was indicated by an endless array of canned fruits, vegetables, artistic needlework, and hand-made articles of taste for the home. The counties represented, for the most part, were those in which Negro farm and homo demonstration agents are employed, of whom there are in the State twelve men and fifteen women. The exhibits grew largely out of their efforts to improve rural conditions and methods, and to raise the level of Negro life in general. The results constituted a remarkable testimonial to the value of their work in promoting higher standards of efficiency, greater production and better citizenship. Most hopeful of all, perhaps, were the school plays, which were cast and varied. These consisted not only of the usual school work—maps, posters, essays, historical sketches, drawings and the like—but also of an unbelievable variety of depressive sciences and manual training products, indicating that the training of mind and hand is going along side by side. One of the schools displayed a poster boasting the fact that of its 255 graduates not one had ever been convicted or accused of crime. The exhibit was viewed by thousands of visitors and received the highest commendation on all hands. BIRMINGHAM, Ala. Oct. 10.—Barrie- ried in his home near the downtown section here, Charles Pinkard, a crusaded Negro, wounded twelve persons—officers and onlookers—one officer perhaps fatally, late today, before plain clothes Policeman Wandy Sand- feor glimped to an adjourning root and, opening fire at close range, fatally wounded him. Pinkard wounded Deputy Siforiff Sam Williams when the office went to his home to investigate an alleged attack by Pinkard on George Kirkhoff, white, a City Henth Inspector. The Negro suddenly became insane, it was said, when Kirkhoff wont to inspect a soft dykin stand he operated Kirkhoff was injured when he attempted to quiet Pinkard. Standing off all attempts to capture him for two hours, Pinkard, already weak from tour-gas attacks and wounds, middles his last attack when he rushed to a window to check the flank attack by Bandefer from an adjoining roof. Several shots were exchanged before the Negro fell. The battle drew hundreds of people from the business section who rushed through the police lines and into the fire from both officers and Pinkard. Aged Negro Flogged, Forced to Sell Farm; BIRMINGHAM, Ala. Oct. 16—While Attorney General McCullotton Davis and their special investigators were planning the prosecution which they hope, will end masked floggings and lynchings in this State, 17 alleged Ku Klux Klanens were held in $35,000 ball in Creshaw County on charges of kidnapping and assault. They were indicted last night. Tomorrow, in Jefferson County, W. J. Worthington, Birmingham real estate operator; L. C. Allibert, said to be his personal attorney, and eight others will go on trial for flogging Arthur Hitt, an aged Negro. Hitt was intimidated into selling his farm at a fraction of its real value. After tonight's conference of the State's legal officers, it was announced they had established a powerful motive for Worthington, to force Hitt to sell his farm and leave the county. A Talented West Indian LONDON.-Bruce James, a native of British Guiana, who opened the "Christia" unit organ, installed at the Edmonton Empire, is one of the most talented exponents of the organ. In 1910 he came to England as the Government open classical scholar and went up to Keble College, Oxford, till the outbreak of the war. On the classical side Mr. Jones won many honors, and in 1913 was proxime accessil for the Gaimard Greek Prose award. After his discharge from the army in 1918 he definitely devoted himself to musical studies under the leading professors in London and Budapest. His first kinema job was as organist at the Brixton Pavilion under Jean Michaud, and has since been at the Kinbun Brange, Coronet, Nosting Hill, and the Globe, Actor. He is also a gifted pianist and has given many West End planeforte recitals. P. C. N. B. Didn't Get It It seems to me that the reputation of Warren Gamaliel Harding suffers greatly at the hands of Nan Britton in "The President's Daughter." And to my mind the incident weighing most heavily against him concerns an evening upon which he offered to go out into the streets of New York and procure for Miss Britton a bottle of champagne. Mr. Harding was at this time the Republican nominee for President of the United States. But this is not the limit of his shame. Miss Britton reports that he came back after several hours and confessed that he could not get it—Hoywood Bryan in The Nation. Three spectators were wounded. Attempts to rout the Negro with tear gas and fire were unsuccessful. While members of the riot sound drew his fire others rushed the house from an opposite direction and set fire to it. The fire burned a moment and then died out. Pinkhawk rushed to a window in time to wound an officer who had failed to get out of range. Another attempt to burn the stronghold was made when an armored police car was driven to the side of the house and tear gas bombs were rained in through the windows, but Pinkhawk was on the watch and when the Wound bearing torches came within range poured a volley down on them. Officers said the tear gas appeared to have little effect on him. The officers had difficulty in removing the body from the house through the thousands of people who awarded in the streets and the yard. The body was taken to Police Headquarters and fater to a Negro mortuary, where it was held under guard. Few of those wounded were believed to have suffered seriously and all but two or three were released from hospitals after having their wounds treated. How easy it is to make their hair long, straight and glossy using Improved, Fluko Hair Dressing, everyone would have beautiful hair that is easy to arrange in any manner and stays that way looking smooth and glossy, because this soft daintily perfumed preparation is so economically priced everyone can afford to use it. Noted Columnist Dispusses" the Critic's Estimate of Artistic Achievement of the Negro—"Can't Kill Talent by Sowing It with Salt" (From The Nation) Henry Menchen has been appraising, in the last few weeks, the artistic achievement of the Negro in America. "Not so much," is the substance of Mr. Menchen-werdlst. The task of setting down to a peppy weight the ponderability of an individual contribution is difficult enough and a complete survey of the trophy room of a race falls beyond the powers of any critic. Naturally enough, Mr. Menchen has overlooked a certain number of events. Once, at the home of a Broadway star, we played the game of twenty questions and with the aid of only a small proportion of my allotment I narrowed the field down to the fact that the unknown person was living, American, and a practitioner in the arts. There I bogged for they said "No" when I mentioned literature, music, the graphic arts, and oratory. "There are no other arts," I pleased and gave up, which earned me the lifelong emity of my hostess. "I suppose," she said with "bitterness, "you never heard of the art of acting?" And to my amazement and indignation Walter Hampton turned out to be the name I was supposed to guess. There was some justification for my failure to remember, but if one forgets that actors may be "artists, the fault lies partly with the players. They have thrown the word about with such indiscrimination that the definition of "artist" has been reduced to "everybody on a vanidade bill except the trained seals." However, they also serve who interpract, and Mr. Mencken errs when he omits from his catalogue the name of any Negro singer, orator, dancer or actor. Suroly there gare half a dozen Negro concert performers who should be called "artist" even in a community chary in the use of the word. Probably Mr. Mencken is right when he says that at the moment there is no Negro composer, novelist, pastor, or poet deserving the first rank. But Roland Hayes may not be brushed aside, nor Paul Robeson, nor Taylor Gordon. Indeed I would not limit my list to those who appear with serious intent in concert halls. One must look to the cabaret and varieties. If Racquel Meller is an artist then so are Clara Smith and Ethel Waters. And not to stress the point unduly "St. Louis Blues" is a ballad infinitely finer than anything which the Spanish woman ever-consisted to sing. "Feeling tomorrow just like I feel today" is a line worthy of any contrulto's son. And if monologists belong among the Lord's affinities I would like to put the late Charlie Case within the Hall of Fame. But I am not competent to make any complete list of notable Negroes engaged in various interpretive arts. I would like to beg the question by a few degrees and discuss the artistic potentialities of the Negro in the mass rather than pick out certain individuals. History will not record the names of thousands of brown men and (Continued on page 6) HEAVEN WONDERS AT INDIFFERENCE OF AMERICAN NEGROES TO WELFARE OF AFRICA, SAYS MISSION HERALD Africans Abroad in America Seem to Forget Their Own, Who Suffer from the Attentions of the White Alien—Macedonian Cry, "Come Over and Help Us."

They have now multiplied to over twelve million strong—thousands and thousands of professional men—doctors, lawyers, teachers and professors in all walks of life; many of whom have become wealthy and are living in beautiful homes. They have churches by the thousands and any number of schools. No people of color in any other part of the world have the opportunity for development as they have. When they were brought here they left millions and millions behind in their native land. These are still in darkness, for they have not the light. Now the world and perhaps the whole heavenly host of departed saints are looking and hoping that this small bodyguard of Negroes who are runners of civilization and Christianity respecting the black race of Africa will carry the gospel and a knowledge of civilization back to their unfortunate brothers and sisters. Long the Macedonian cry has been wafted across the waves—"Come over and help us." Millions and millions of anxious eyes, from the faces of our black brothers and sisters have looked tearfully across the ocean to see us coming to their rescue. They have heard our orators boast of our great progress, our development, our achievements. The news of our onward march has reached them and more anxiously they await and expect us. They have seen the white man come to all parts of Africa by thousands. Then they wonder why we don't come. Their country has been devastated, their land has been taken, the rights of a civilized being have been denied many of them in their own country, at their own door, by the white intruder. Their country has been robbed in a million ways by a foreign enemy. Their greatest handicap in protecting themselves is their own unenlightened minds. They have point them. How long will black people of Africa look for us with sent ministers to us telling of their sad plight and plead with us to come to their rescue, but we have refused. While one class of white people have oppressed them, another class have had sympathy for them and sent out thousands of missionaries. Much money has been given to build hospitals and schools that they might be developed and helped, but they wonder why we don't join in and help. They wonder at the white man having practically seven thousand foreign missionaries in Africa, while there are not one hundred, no, not fifty American-born Negroes there. They wonder at the white man sending nearly three thousand ordained ministers, while there are not thirty American born ordained Negro ministers there. They wonder why we can be so happy and rejoice so much while they are in so much pain and misery. Even heaven wonders, and is disappointed as they see our selfishness, our wait for sacripless spirit. How long will we dispatchearful eyes, but in vain? How long will disease destroy their millions, while we have the remedy to cure and withhold it? When shall we go to them, building hospitals, schools, churches, yea, medical schools and universities? Only when the majority of our pastors will seriously consider their duty to Africa and have their people to give largely for Africa's redemption.—one of the very greatest things that Negroes can do in this world. The thing that will give people the greatest name by the generations yet unborn will be their going back in large numbers as missionaries, as indus rial teachers, as heralds of higher education, carrying the blessings of Christianity to every part of Africa, so that from many parts of that mighty land princes will be rising and millions and millions will be stretching forth their hands to God.

MAIR - - - - - Business Manager The Negro World does not knowingly accept questionable or fraudulent advertising: Readers of the Negro World are earnestly requested to invite our attention to any failure on the part of an advertiser to adhere to any representation contained in a Negro World advertisement: DOES THE REALLY HAPPY PERSON EVER LAUGH? OLIVER GOLDSMITH, the sweetest singer of the simple life and the commonplace, says, "the loud laugh marks the vacant mind." A scientist, writing recently in London Mail, says, "the really happy man never laughs, or seldom, though he may smile. He does not need to laugh, for laughter, like weeping, is a relief of mental tension, and the happy are not overstrung." This same scientist also accentuates the fact that "moreover, it is an idiosyncrasy of humankind alone. No other animal, except the hyena, laughs, and the hyena's laugh, like that of many humans, is a snarl. Why, after all, should an animal laugh? What in the world is there for animals to laugh at?" Laugh who will, but the fact remains that there is nothing in living nor in dying to laugh at; it is all so commonplace and tragical. INTERNATIONAL DIPLOMACY IS WITHOUT MORALS OR MERCY and understood that the principle of dishonesty in the individual has come to be recognized and controlled by law. We do not trust our neighbor and he does not trust us. When he sells us goods we are sure he will give us short weight or change and damaged goods if we do not watch him closely. The small vendor on this corner asks five cents for the same goods the vendor on the next corner asks six cents for. A system of cheatery runs through all of our buying and selling. The best cheater has the biggest bank account and stands best with his neighbors. That he is rich, settles it; how he got rich does not matter. Rev. John Haynes Holmes of the Community Church, in New York city, is not only a great preacher but a great humanitarian. He preaches a national and personal morality which he practices, and he is prominent in all good works for the uplift and betterment of mankind. Color lines and bars do not worry him, and he has little patience with them. That is to say, he is a Christian minister of light and leading. There are all too few of his kind in the land. In a recent sermon in his church, Mr. Holmes, talking about national and international morals, expressed a conviction that unless the State is forced to obey moral law, civilization is doomed to extinction, and enlarged upon the subject as follows: "As soon as an individual puts on public life," said Mr. Holmes, "he is supposed to put off his moral standards. As a private citizen, I am not supposed to lie, but if I am sent abroad as a diplomatic representative, I am not only allowed but expected to lie for the good and glory of my country. "As a private citizen, I am not allowed to steal, but if I am Secretary of State, I can send marines-to Nicaragua, steal from that little nation, murder Nicaraguans and lie to Americans, and no one will think worse of me for what I am doing." "The state lives outside the moral law," said Mr. Holmes. "Not a day passes but Washington, or London, or Paris, does things which, if done by an individual, would disgrace him forever. If there were any ethical principles in state affairs at all, we should soon see the disappearance of what are now nothing more nor less than public crimes." This is a terrible arraignment. The truth it embodies is appalling to those who wish to feel that men are growing better instead of worse in their dealings one with the other and in their national and international relations. The United States has joined hands with other English-speaking governments in the conquest, by force or fraud, of weaker nations whose peoples they have no intention of incorporating into their system of social, civil and economic government, but purely to get all of the land and labor out of them at the least cost. Not only has the United States done this in Nicaragua, but in Haiti, San Domingo, Hawaii and the Philippine Islands. "The Master hatf need," they say, and proceed to grab and hold on and to exploit for their benefit those who are too weak to defend and protect their own interests. It has become the rule of international diplomacy to do this. When dishonesty between persons and nations becomes accepted as a principle of individual, national and international relations, how can the moral standards be other than lowered everywhere? That appears to be the tendency, and a few men in Europe and America, like Mr. Holmes, see it and have the courage to denounce it and to demand a reaction from it. We have the decline and fall of Babylon and Greece and Rome by reason of the very same principle of social, civil and economic corruption, to teach our statesmen and preachers and philosophers the dangers they invite, but they do not understand. British rule in India has blasted national hope and development, aid in the West Indies and British Africa the policy of robbing the natives of their land and of reducing them to a condition of involuntary service and taxation, restricted to the lowest form of labor so as not to come into competition with white European labor, with no part whatever in the making and administration of the laws has become a policy as remorseless in its workings as the laws of the Medes and Persians, without flexibility and without mercy. The voice of dissent, of protest, of organized resistance, is being lifted up and heard in the British West and East Indies and in Africa, and it is bound to grow in volume and influence until it reaches and influences those in the seats of power.

OCTOBER 22. 1927 If you would discover how thin is the veneer with which twentieth century "Civilization" is coated, you have only to go soldiering in time of war, or ride on a New York subway train during the rush hour. By DR. M. ALICE ASSERSION OF the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association Clean Mouths Help Health We all know the story of the man who said "New York will be a great city when it's finished!" Our bodies are something like New York. We must take care of them constantly so that they may repair the damage done in the wear and tear of every day living. Old tissues are wearing out and new ones must be built up to take their places, if we are to be really healthy and keep ourselves in a1 condition. Health is a complex matter, depending largely upon the care we give our bodies. We must therefore not neglect any part of them. One thing you should certainly remember to do, and that is to take care of your teeth. Go to the dentist once or, better still, twice a year for an examination. Have your teeth cleaned by a dentist or dental hygienist at least twice a year. Have whatever work is necessary on your teeth done regularly. You are particular about the condition of the food you eat. You want only the purest and cleanest food. It is especially important to have the mouth in good condition to receive food. If you do not clean your teeth regularly (at least twice a day; after every meal and before going to bed at night) you cannot keep your mouth clean and in a healthy condition. It is true that many diseases are traceable to bacteria, which entered the blood stream via the mouth. So it is of the utmost importance to keep the mouth clean in order to protect the body from disease. Criticism has much to do in the making of public servants. No one should think himself above criticism. But all men are not capable of criticizing their fellows. The best of us may err at times in passing upon pthers' acts, but none of us should attempt to criticize another before studying the person criticized and the work that person is doing. Unjust criticism may no injure the person that the task be made impossible and good work made to fall completely. Our intents should ever be good ones. The intent should not only be good, but we should be able to convince the person criticized that our intent is good. If we are not capable of so convincing him, it would be better not to criticize. But there be some you cannot convince. It is this sort that makes criticism dangerous to the-one who is given thereto. Old. Old Story of Double-Edged Sword Giving evidence before the Australian Film Commission, Col Pottinger said that many American films have given the colored races the impression that the white races are immoral. They were having, too, and bad effect on Australian children, causing them to imbibe American slang and spelling and giving utterly false idea of the world beyond Australia. P. C. N. B.

But statesmen and tradesmen think they can do it and get away with it, and they are never convinced until their sins find them out and disaster covers them with confusion. MR. GARVEY. AS A POET GREAT-many people have been surprised, and pleased at discovering that Honorable Matucus Garvey, President-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, is a poet of a high order; that is, that he possesses lift large measure the divine power of expressing himself in the language of poetry, which a distinguished authority has declared to be the sublimest expression of the human soul after perfection. Only those who have suffered greatly or felt the ecstacies of joy in its highest and purest form, are capable of reaching the depths in poetic expression which affect and move great masses of people. Lord Byron says, In effect, "Many are poets who have never penned a thought and perhaps the best." The poets who have sung spontaneously, as it were, without suffering much, as Homer, David, Milton and Dante suffered, or loved deeply, as Petrarch, Shakespeare, Lord Byron and Edgar Allan Poe loved, only skim the surface of human sorrow and joy. They do not fathom the depths of human hope and aspiration. They please and charm but do not transport us. Mr. Garvey has loved deeply and suffered deeply. In the few years he has lived he has experienced the extremes of human joy and agony. If he did not possess a poetic consciousness he would be mute or express himself in common phrase, as the average person does; but, having the poetic consciousness, he not only writes poetry that moves the reader but he writes and speaks the prose which reaches and moves the masses. In The Negro World of September 17, we published a poem by Mr. Garvey, under the heading, "God in Man." in which the image of God in the image of man, as stated in the first chapter of Genesis, twenty-seventh verse, as follows: "So God created man in His own image, in the image of God created He him; male and female created He them," is very poetically brought out, as the following three concluding stanzas will But man has wandered far from the image and spirit of his creator and by the eating of flesh and crossing of breeds made something that does not resemble the original man. WEAKNESS OF THE MEXICANS MEXICO has just passed through a short but bloody civil war, in which the primitive way of asking no quarter and giving none was practiced, the conquering forces trying and shooting on the spot the defeated enemy. This sort of warfare is generally practiced by savages but is outlawed by civilized people. The trouble with the Mexicans is that they are a mixed race of people who have had time to become wholly amalgamated. They are made up of all races of the Spanish, Indian and Negro races, and the disposition to fight among themselves upon slightest provocation, without any appeal to law and legal process, is an inheritance of each of the races, which makes self-government among them a difficult business. Whenever there is to be an election a swarm of candidates darkens the political horizon and revolutions follow as a matter of course. It has been that way in Mexico and most of the Latin American States, and with black Haiti and mulatto San Domingo and Cuba, and it has made stable government impossible, crippled the industrial development and impaired the credit of the countries concerned. It will be a long time before Mexico becomes a self-governing democracy in the sense that the United States and Canada are. Its cross of races will have to disappear in the evolution of a single race type, with a public school education and a political and religious tolerance, now generally lacking in the people, more generally disfused among them. War is still the curse but chief reliance of men in settling their disputes. "The parliament of man, the federation of the world," Lord Tennyson dreamed of, is still only a dream, an aspiration of the few idealistic spirits of the world. EDITORIAL OPINION OF THE NEGRO PRESS Negroes are still carrying the tin cup. Yesterday they carried it in garbled and tollbent hands, reaching out from a frayed coat sleeve. Today they jiggle the cup still, but the hand that holds it has manicured malls and the coat sleeve is likely to be of hand-tailored brondoloth or imported braid. The man who yesterday, orried for help from a humble shanty or a broken-down buggy, today walls for aid from a Louis XVI drawing room or the tilted upholstery of a luxurious sedan.—California Voice. spanks out in the way which it believes will be for the good of the nation and of the community, regardless of what the consequences may be from a business standpoint. This is more than the average business man will do or can do—California Eagle. The individual without a fixed purpose in life generally amounts to naught, and, too, those who are not willing to mix with it a great deal of savoring, after setting their bag, nine times out of ten, fall-before reaching their goal—Oklahoma Eagle. If the American white man really know how the new generation of black people and many of the old, who have undergone a complete metamorphosis, are thinking, he would be dumb-founded, amazed and surprised. True enough, human nature is the same the whole world over, but environment, tradition, creates degrees of difference. One thing the world should know, we are always thinking about freedom and liberty, but as to how we will get it is another question.—Seattle Enterprise. After all world troubles are the outcome of greed, passion and uncharisableness. When you seek to grab from another that which is his, you have diverted the course of world harmony into confusion and discord, and that persisted in logically and scientifically results in strife and wars—Gold Coast Leader. That which goes by the name of "Negro question" is a part of the greater question of all humanity. Nobody is qualified to express an opinion embracing general conceptions of human development as related to difficulties and handicaps which confront the Negro unless he has the broader and deeper knowledge which constitutes the basis of a philosophy—Washington Tribune. Do you want to do everything—be everything—win everything? If so you have too many goals. Discard all save one and then press steadily forward toward its attainment—Atlanta Independent. It is quite customary for Negroes to think that they are the only ones who labor under a great handlegap and are the victims of discrimination. This is not true. Other minorities have just caused to complain against discrimination, too. Omaha Monitor. The men in all ages who have questioned, challenged or denied or attacked the existing order of things, have supplied the "yeast" which set masses of soiled thought fermenting. -Star of Zion. ```markdown ``` We frequently hear it said that the old time independent spirit of the newspaper is gone; that its editorial policy is now subservient to the business office. Yet this is not true. There is more unselfish idealism in the average local newspaper than in any other business enterprise.

REEVES II (Concluded) Lastly, but by no means leastly, the prudite Dr. Locke presents to a des- spised and bewildered black America two suggestions of "ways to win" this unqualified battle of the races. Dr. Locke says: "Otherwise, two alternatives, each entailing heavy and general social loss, would confront the talented Negro; either to march off to foreign fields and repeat for the whole American situation what has already tragically happened in the South, where the best and sturdiest have moved off and left an inert and almost leaderless mass to constitute a still heavier social drag and danger; or else to turn in narrowed and vindictive vision to the only course that will give him a chance and ewing the hammer of mass action behind the outtting edge of genius." In other words, Dr. Locke is telling the much harassed and ostracized American Negro that, in case the enemy continues to show no signs of social capitulation, there still remains the privilege of packing up "bag and message" and departing to foreign fields, or, in the last-oxtromity, to turn and fight with all of the weapons at hand for those things which the Negro believes to be rightfully his. We suspect that it was this final and exceedingly pugnacious suggestion to the Negro masses which so stirred the sire of Mr. Stoddard, who closes both of Dr. Locko's alternatives" as "threats." We are much interested in Dr. Löcke's suggestion of the possibility of the Negro's departing to what he pleases to term "foreign fields." We wondered if he, by any chance, meant Africa. It is a great pleasure for the Negro who hopes that at some time the Negro will realize his dream of establishing a successful and progressive Negro nation, to observe the seeds of Garveyism slowly, but surely bearing fruit. The time was when few Negroes, and especially those of the higher grade of intellectuity, even considered emigration as a possible solution for their social and economic problems in America. It is interesting to note the change of attitude a decade of propaganda has brought about. As for the hammer, of mass action behind the cutting edge of genius. Mr. Stoddard construes this to mean race war directed by educated leaders. To this Mr. Stoddard replies: "Another point should be clearly understood. If Mr. Locke's arguments do not convince us, still lose do his threats intimidate us. For Mr. Locke does threaten, in no uncertain voice. He tells us that unless we accede to his demands, the insurgent Negro intelligentsia which he represents will either quit the country or will remain here as aggrieces of race war and social revolution. That is not a pleasant prospect, but it will not make us "capitulate," gracefully or otherwise. For we White Americans are quite ready to risk possible ill from racial strife or revolutionary agitation, rather than endure the certain ill that would ensue from the loss of our race identity." That's pretty plain, isn't it? Depart in peace, or stay and fight, but you just can't win. Sounds rather hopeless. But is it? We like to read such lucid and informative articles as these on the American race question as it concerns the Negro. There is nothing more helpful than to learn what the other fellow is thinking. Negroes should welcome such discussions. For all of its finality, there are many vulnerable points in Mr. Stoddard's article. It is palpably the opinion of a man born with a closed mind on the Negro question. We take no offense because the number of Negroes in America, or anywhere else, who long for amalgamation, per so, with the white race is very small indeed. What the Negro wants is hard to define. But an open-minded white man might be able to see it. The Negro wants to be a MAN wherever he resides. And as such he wants to enjoy every privilege enjoyed by every other man in that particular section of the earth. The great grievance that the Negro has against White America is that he has been joked into believing that manhood rights have been extended him, when, in reality, he remains a serif ground relentlessly under the heel of his white oppressor. Mr. Stoddard views what he chooses to call the "color-line" as a great wall which the Negro is making a fruitless endeavor to climb, but which is being successfully guarded by the white man. As a matter of fact, we wonder why there should be any fight at all if the white man is so determined to keep the white race white. Amalgamation is determined by the mood of the individual. Can the white man and the black man mix against the will of either? There must be a chink somewhere in Mr. Stoddard's armor. Mr. Stoddard suggests a bi-racial arrangement in America, by which the Negro would keep on his side of the fence, and the white man on his. He cites the South as the place where a fundamental" form of this Utopian arrangement is now being tried out, more successfully. Well, we won't accept Mr. Stoddard's word as to the success of this "bi-racial programs" down South; we will ask any Negro living in the South from the most highly intellectual to the most ignorant, what he thinks about the success of it. And through all of this very enlightening discussion we hear absolutely nothing about the economic and political phase of the race question. In the final analysis, there are the open wounds in the breast of the American Negro. Social, or "cultural," equality extended to the deserving few, as Dr. Locks suggests, is of minor value when it is weighed in with the fundamental privileges which are supposed to accompany citizenship in a great republic. The real "bone of contention" between the white man and the black man in America is an economic and political "bone." Give the Negro complete economic and political freedom and the so-called "social" problem would practically cease to exist. Mr. Stoddard is right in asserting that the Negro is thoroughly capable of enjoying the society of his own kind. Custom may build up a bi-racial social system, but there is no practical way to build up a bi-racial economic and political system in America. The white man has the upper hand, and it is highly problematical whether he ever will open the doors to his black brother. Marcus Garvey sounded the keynote a decade ago. The phonemical educational progress of the Negro has blinded many to the real situation. The real obstacle is not lack of culture on the part of the Negro. Thousands of Negroes who have acquired training along all lines have proved this. The American white man would have the world believe that he despises the Negro because of the color of his skin. In reality the American white man despises the Negro because he is the underdog economically. And the Negro is unique among the races in the "melting pot" in that he has no national home governed by his own kind toward which he may look for encouragement and assistance. The white man despises you because you are an economic beggar, and by his own system he perpetuates the shame and suffering. Garvey said, "Go but and make a home for yourself in Africa from whence you came." And some Negroes laughed and said, "America is my homo." It is hidden a pour home where you have to be perpetually segregated and kicked from pillar to post. Garvey said, "Turn your eyes toward Africa; there lies your salvation." And now we have those among us who truly advocate eminence. Defect EN Si Hf, te — a BDV Nsd LA OR P b) En Fo) Se fl * Ne eS ce ase Se. | ~ "200 WAYS PTT ey fet er] 4 ‘ 5 Gor Aaly a9 .

Different speakers addressed-the meeting, the collection was lifted, and further notice given of the date of the seventh anniversary of the division to be held on Wednesday, October 12, at 8 p.m. The night's enjoyable meeting game to its class with singing of the Ethiopian National Anthem. Wednesday night, October 12, was observed for celebration of the seventh annual anniversary of the New Orleans Division of the U. N. I. A. Owing to sudden change of the weather, the attendance was small. However, those that are earnest Garveyites were present and a well-arranged program was presented. At 8:15 p. m. the meeting was called to order by the acting president, Mr. B. A. Francis. The usual order of business was carried through, after which two visiting officers of the Natchez Division were introduced, Mr. J. King, first vice president, and Captain Peterson of the Legious. At this stage the meeting was turned over to Mr. John Cary, Jr., who was master of ceremonies. Mr. Cary in taking his post made a brief but vital expression to the audience for the purpose of explaining the unique occasion. The chaplain, Mr. James Reed, was called on to read Psalm 15, which he explained to his heirs. The president was the next speaker. He interested his hearers for a few minutes by encouraging them to ever continue to see the principles as laid by our architect, the Hon. Marcus Garvey. Mr. King, of Natchoz Division, was next called. After addressing the chair and members he continued by asking a general co-operation of all. His remarks were logical and constructive. The master of ceremonies made a brief comment on the zealous remarks of Mr. King. Next was the recitation of a poem written by the Hon. Marcus Garvey, entitled "The Black Woman." Miss Molson is always a credit for her eloquence in reciting. The lady president, Mrs. R. J. Walls, spoke next. She impressed on the minds of her hearers to keep at all times in their memory the principles of the organization, urged that more reading be done by our members, and ended by asking for continued support to the association by way of gonquille sacrifice. Next was reading of a telegram to be sent to the Hon. Marcus Garvey. Mr. B. S. Gilbert, one of the foundation members, was called next to express his feelings for the past seven years of his connection with this division. Mr. Gilbert made a brief outline of the past history of the division and pledged to carry on at all times, regardless of the lils to be met. He mentioned Mr. S. V. Robertson as the founder of this division and the work that he has done. The chaplain at this stage was called on to deliver the anniversary sermon. He took his text from Luke, Chapter VI. Next was a paper by Miss Molson. Collection was lifted, the Anthem was sung, and the great occasion came to a close with benediction by the chaplain.

Friday evening, October 7, in the Chabot Lecture, Hall of Oakland, California, an educational mass meeting was held to discuss "America's Great Race Problem." An audience of white and black listened attentively to addresses made by prominent officials from the City Hall and members of the U. N. I. A. as they advocated the co-operation of the two races for national adjustment. ARTHUR S. GRAY, Reporter. NEWARK, N. J. Sunday, September 25, was a very raro day in the history of the Newark Division. At 11 a. m. the morning service was called to order by our president, Mr. Charles L. James. The choir rendered splendid music under the directorship of the musical director, Mr. A. Amos. A very impressive sermon was preached by the president, Rev. Butler. Our able chaplain made a few brief remarks. The president of the Asbury Park Division offered an earnest prayer for the speedy release of the Hon. Marcus Garvoy which made the membership very sad. "God Bless Our President" was sung, and so we started the day with God and Garvoy. At 3 p. m. the hall was packed to its capacity. The Logions and Black Cross Nurses were in good trim and enthusiasm prevailed in the entire meeting. The meeting was called to order by the president. The president made the opening address. The audience cheered him to the echo when he announced that we were sitting in our own Liberty Hall and that we were here to stay. He then called on Mr. A. T. Williams of Liberia, Africa, to say a word of encouragement. Mr. Williams gave us much food for thought. Two members were added to the roll. Long before. 7.30 p. m. there was hardly standing room in our Liberty Hall. At 8 p. m. Captain James of the U. A. L. lined up the Units in fine style. The processional hymn was played by our able pianist, Miss Grace Amos. "Shine On Eternal Light" was played and the choir marched to the strain. The officers' staff and escort followed to the rostrum. The president then called the meeting to order with the opening ode and performed the ritualistic ceremony. He introduced Mrs. A. Green, the head of the Black Cross Nurses, who in turn introduced Mrs. Lottie Blake as mistress of cenemonies. Next was a selection by the choir, which was well rendered, and the program continued: Recitation by Little Dorothy Peytwillway; paper by Miss Ruby Green, "Garvey, the Man of the Hour"; address by Captain Jackson, recruiting officer of the Newark Division; scripture reading by Rev. Butler, chaplain. Much enthusiasm prevailed as Mr. A. Amos sang the well known piece written by the Hon. Marous Garvey, "Keep Cool." The nurses then staged a wonderful demonstration showing the difference between the Red Cross Nurses and the Black Cross Nurses. The president made the closing address. He thanked the Black Cross Nurses and bade the membership to turn their eyes to Atlanta where, the greatest Negro of all time is incarcerated. After recessional hymn and the Ethiopian Anthem the meeting came to an end. NOTICE! NEGRO DOLLS KINGSTON, JAM. Sunday, October 2, was a fed letter day for the Kingston Division of the U. N. I. A. The occasion was a visit from Lady Henrietta Vinton Davis, 4th assistant president general of the U. N. I. A. Long before the meeting started the spacious hall was crowded to its utmost capacity (standing room not even available) with persons eager to hear news from an officer of the parent body, A little Before the Divine service was a procession headed by a band made up from the uniformed ranks, Black Cross nurses and officers. The Divine service was started by Mr. H. B. Greene, chaplain of the division. During the service Miss Davis arrived and, after the playing of the Ethiopian National Anthem by the band, she was presented to the president, Mr. Chas. D. Johnson, by Colonel Samuel Gulson of the Universal African Legions, who escorted her to a seat on the rostrum. The chaplain delivered a forceful sermon from the text, 1st Corinthians, 13th chap., 11th verse. After the offerings were taken up the Divine service ended. The mass meeting was opened with Mr. Chas. D. Johnson, the president, in the chair, who in his usual eloquent manner welcomed all to Liberty Hall. He was pleased with the audience, but especially the spirit and zeal which existed to celebrate Garvey Day. During his discourse he commented highly on the loyalty of Lady Davis to the cause, for out of the thirteen officers who launched out with the Hon Marcus Garvey she is the only one who has stood the test. At the close of his opening remarks he was well applauded. The literary part of the programme was as follows; Recitation, Masle Edwards; selection, drum and fire band; recitation, Miss Effie Waugh; selection, brass band; solo, Miss L. Hewey; duet, Misses Robinson and Dixon; selection, drum and fire band; address, Mr. P. J. Mitchell; anthem, the choir; address, Mr. D.*E. Williams; closing address, Mr. J. C. Fraser. Lady Davis then delivered her address and stated she was pleased to stand on the rostrum of the Kingston Division to speak to her own people. She related the arduous work she performed while in Cuba and became ill on account of the unsanitary conditions in Cuba. During her address she brought to the notice of her hearers the hard times some of the West Indians (especially Jamaicans) were experiencing in Cuba. She was surprised 'that although conditions were so bad in Cuba to see an article in one of the issues of the "Gleaner" showing to the public that Jamaican laborers were needed in Cuba, as work on railroads and roads would have to be started soon. She mentioned the action of the British consul in Cuba in refusing to help a West Indian, and expressed her opinion that it was unjust for a representative of a country not to protect its subject. In closing she said the faculties of the Negroes were as good as any other race, and they must stand up in the spirit of God and Marcus Garvey. The address was punctuated throughout with applause. A vote of thanks was moved by Mr. Clifford Erlington and seconded by Mr. J. J. White, 2nd vice-president, supported by Mr. G. T. Allen, and presented to Lady Davis by the president. After the singing of the Ethiopian National Anthem, the executive officers of the division, were presented to Lady Davis by the president, and on his (the president's) invitation, Lady Davis kindly consented to inspect the uniformed ranks, which presented a fine appearance. Lady Davis congratulated all ranks for their neat appearance and devotion to the organization. Colonel Samuel Gibson, the commanding officer, suitably replied.

The Negro will ever remain the "Good Servant" for the white man as long as he makes up his mind to depend upon the latter for a living and depend upon him to be always doing his bidding. From a careful study of the happenings of the day, one is forced to the conclusion that even though Negroes holding high positions under the flags of countries wherever they may be domiciled and seeing deliberately all those alone as they ought not to have been done towards their race are satisfied to shun the issue and be selfish just because they may happen to be the father of a certain white man. Think of a Negro being an Honorable Member of the Legislative Council of Jamaica and in the face of the innumerable cases of blood treatment meted out to his fellow countrymen, when they are forced to seek bread in countries like Spanish Honduras, Cuba and elsewhere, and when protection is being sought from the British consul the man who is exiting through the taxes being paid by his client boldly says, "I am here for the protection of British property but not British objects." Slavery is still in him, practiced upon our brothers and sisters in their Motherland, Africa, by the mighty advocate of freedom, England. And listen to them in the Council of accomplishing the rights of their Noble Mother County. These men in my fellow opinion, and in the fact of all things that are hardy, are contemptuous, jealous. Think of a man squeezing the only life-breath out of my brothers, and any Negro would be blind to praise him for his noble feat. It seems that the Negro has really a deadly hold upon the belief "Knock me upon my right jaw and I must also give you the left" ALARIC WELSH Havana, Cuba. Gary Strike a Lesson to Race To the Editor of The Negro World- The racial disturbance in Gary, Indiana, has given the American Negro a lesson that should correct many of his previous misconceptions pertaining to his status as an American citizen. All those advocates of social and political equality must have been rudely shocked and abashed. Evidently they are now able to realize that their "place" is not with or on an a par with that of the whites. The Gary Division of the U. N. I. a should reap a harvest of new members for the cause of Garveyism. While reading some comment of the case in the New York Times, the discovery of a "release" from the N. A. A C. P. by Field Secretary James Weldon Johnson was noted. Mr. Johnson is reported to have stated that the or- SPECIAL TO LEGIONS, BLACK MOTOR CORPS in New York, Brook New are ordered to report West 138th Street, N day Evening, November in the month). to ta Demonstration and R will be issued to all complete check-up on so be present to answer COL.

From all indications, the "light" was rather short-lived and pitifully ineffective. Who is so blind as he that can see, but refuses to look; or he that can hear, but refuses to listen? Negroes. Beware! Your myth of Americanism is rapidly Aiding. Africanism is the only hope for the race of which we are members. Without a government we have no representation, and without representation we have no guaranteed protection. Line up with the Universal Negro Improvement Association and help those who are trying to build for the Negro a place in the sun. Further procrastination is racial suicide. A fitting tribute was paid our devoted editor, Hon T. Thomas Fortune, by an old-time acquaintance last week. He stated that our loyal laborer of journalism had not yielded to the enemies of Negro freedom and enancipation. Such consistency, as has been manifested by our distinguished editor can well be adopted by all true followers of Garveyism. As this is the month of his seventy-first anniversary, we join our leader, Hon Marcus Garvey, in extending to Mr. Fortune our heartiest congratulations. ARTHUR S GRAY. Oakland, Cal. Isaac Newton Was Mistaken for a Triller While Isaac Newton was making a study of the refraction of light upon thin plates, as exemplified in the soap bubble, a neighbor woman who saw him experimenting mistook him for a trifler, says the Detroit News. "He diverts himself in the oddest ways imaginable," she said. "Every morning: when the sun shines so brightly that we are obliged to draw the window blinds, he takes his seat in front of a tub of soap and occupies himself for hours blowing soap bubbles through a common clay pipe and intently watching them till they hurst." Newton's acquaintances testified as his self-formal fitness and humility. "I do not know," he said of himself, "how I may appear to the world, but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the seashore, now told then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than before, while the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before mo."

Information write THE NEGRO WORLD, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1927 Their Beat Covers 6,000 Square Miles of Sun-Dried Land—A Lonely Job but Not Dangerous In the desert wastes of the Kalahari you meet the men of that strange force, the South African police and camel patrol. They are lonely men, like the mounted police of the Canadian snows; but they like the life, says Lawrence G. Green in the London Daily Mail Their "beat" includes nearly six thousand square miles of sandy, sandy country. They are policemen, wearing blu uniforms and carrying revolvers; yet arresting criminals forms the smallest part of their duty in the Kalahari. They have to collect native taxes, inspect cattle to detect the dreaded rinderpast, report invading swarms of locusts, dip sheep, make meteorological observations and compile voters' rolls in the isolated villages of the territory. But beyond an occasional stock theft there is little crime, indeed. Long and dangerous treks across the sand dunes of the Kalahari take up much of their time. Water holes are hard to find in that sun-scorched land. A small desert melon called teama grows after the fruits, but there is no other fruit. So each man setting out to a distant native village loads his camel with water bags to last for fourteen days. He carries a riffle, not only to shoot game but because there are still little bands of wild bushmen with poisoned arrows who occasionally attack a white man. Blankets and a heavy overcoat are necessary, for the hot sand of the daytime becomes ice cold at night. Moat and mealie meal, tea, milk sugar and a small stove complete the desert policeman's outfit. For days he sits on his camel, plodding across the glaring yellow sand with his eyes and ears full of grit, without the slightest relief from the all-pervading heat. There are no trees, rivers, or pools in the Kalahari. But there is always the possibility of lying down on a scorpion at night. The policeman may have to travel for a week to reach a single white man at some lonely outpost just because the Census Department requires a form to be filled in. Camels used in the Kalahari come from the Sudan. The police are expected to cover forty miles a day in normal times. When great lionst hordes are threatening, to leave their breeding places in the Kalahari and descend on the rich farming districts of the Union the men of the camel patrol sometimes cover eighty miles of desert in twenty-four hours to bring the news to the nearest telegraph office.

Indian Chief Had Simple Plan for Taking Census NOPALTZIN, chief of the *Chilchimean tribe of Indians* that once inhabited the Valley of Mexico, devised a simple plan for taking the census of his subjests. Under his system no census-taker trod upon the newly wagged Iprent porch of the careful housewife, leaving footprints in silky clay. Nor did the agent inquire into the private matters of the family head, says the Detroit News. Instead, each subject placed a small stone in a place designated by the chief, one stone for each member of his family. Carriers then collected the stones and hauled them to an open field, where they were counted and placed in heaps. Twelve of these heaps have been discovered by scientists and a count of the stones indicates the Chilchimean tribe contained 3,200,000 members. When C M. D.

Examination and comparison of distinctive mark is the basis of the test. Only 50,000 persons out of 500,000 have identified "papillary grading," according to Dr. Reche. Of these, only 10,000 will be found to possess heads of the same general shape. In the third test perhaps only 500 will show noses of similarity and hardly 100 of the number will have ears of the same type. Fewer than twenty will show the same shaped eye and only five the same color of hair and eyes. Finally, but one person remains whose fingers show papillary drawings similar to those of the child whose parentage is being sought. YOU HAVE A LUCKY STAR! Money is Happiness.
