XXV—No. 25 NEW YORK, SATURDAY, JULY 27, 1929 Sixth International Convention Greatest Assemblage Of Negroes Since Creation To Open In Kingston, Jamaica, B. W. I. FELLOW MEN OF THE NEGRO RACE, Greeting: In another couple of days the eyes of the civilized world will be turned toward Kingston, Jamaica, B. W. I., where the Sixth International Convention of the Negro Peoples of the World will be assembled. Searching for the expression of the new Negro's sentiment as touching his attitude in a wounded world, a world that has been stirred to its greatest depth in the search that is being made by the races and nations for a place of safety and protection, the Universal Negro Improvement Association has called together the representatives of the four hundred million Negroes of the world to have them decide now and forever the status of the entire race: whether we shall go backward, remain stagnant or unitedly face the world with a program of self-improvement. We have no doubt that during the month of August the representatives of the Negro peoples of the world at Edelweis Park, Kingston, Jamaica, B. W. I., will give out a program that will change now and forever the position of the Negro in the affairs of the world. We want action during the month of August, and we are going to have it. We will have it because the delegates who will assemble here during the convention will be men and women of fearless character, who are not afraid of the criticism of others, but who have self-conviction, and that conviction shall express itself without fear. Everybody at Edelweis Park Every road will lead to Edelweis on Thursday, the 1st of August, when, at 8:30 o'clock in the evening, the delegates will assemble en masse to listen to the official declarations and keynote expressions of the convention. August 1 will be celebrated all over the world as an international holiday for Negroes in the West Indies, Africa, South and Central America and in North America and Canada. We will celebrate the day with gladness because it opens up a new era of our racial existence. Let us unite our forces as never before and get behind the Fourth Annual Intrnational Convention. Let us support the Universal Negro Improvement Association by carrying out its program during the month of August, so that, when we adjourn, a new chapter will have already been written in the history of our race. As has been stated before, we are looking forward to 1929 and 1930 as the biggest years in the history of our great movement, and we have cause to be glad at this time for the success that has attended our efforts. The Universal Negro Improvement Association is now known throughout the world. Men, races and nations are watching us, and surely we shall acquit ourselves at this convention as real representatives of the people. We ask the financial and moral support of the race all over the world. Those who cannot attend the convention should send to the Parent Body of the Universal Negro Improvement Association all the financial help they can. Members should bestir themselves everywhere, working to make the whole program successful. We want everybody to work, and work hard, to make it possible to make this convention a success. U.N.I.A. Has Called Together Representatives of 400,000,- 000 Negroes From All Over The World To Determine Now And Forever The Status of the Entire Race Delegates Serious-minded, Fearless And Determined-For Africa's Redemption There is No Stepping Back-But One Duty Forward Facing Any Opposition - Facing Even the Legions of Hell-Must Be Decision of Every Negro We Must Work for Negro Freedom and Uplift African Redemption, and Justice to All Mankind. Says President-General The Enemies at Work Enemies of our race have flung their nets far and wide, but what do we care about the enemies, if we keep our eyes on the star of African destiny? Care not what the enemy says; care not what the enemy does; fight your battle and yield not, falter not; but keep your mind firm and victory is bound to perch upon our banner, the glorious banner of the Red, the Black and the Green. Men and women, there is no stepping or moving back for the Universal Negro Improvement Association. There is but one duty, and that is to go forward facing any opposition, go forward facing even the legions of hell, but go forward. Let that be the inspiring determination of every member of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and of the Negro race. They Shall Not Pass As the Allies through their united command determined during the World War that the enemy should not pass, so we repeat that "the enemy shall not pass." They shall pass only when every black man has passed away from the face of the earth, but until then the Universal Negro Improvement Association shall fight on and on until we have planted the banner of the Red, the Black and the Green on the firm pillars of liberty. Those who think they can thwart and defeat the plans of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, we say to them, come on and you will see a race fight as never before. We have Africa united in the spirit of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. We have the West Indies, South and Central America and the United States of America united in the one spirit that the Negro shall be free, come weal, come woe, and so we assemble ourselves during this month to lay down the sacred principles upon which we shall climb and be guided, the principles of human love, of justice, of fellowship to all men. Desire To Be Just We of the Universal Negro Improvement Association do not desire to be unfair and unjust to either individuals, races or nations. All that we ask is for a square deal; and for that we shall agitate; for that we shall fight. During the month of August in our convention we shall let our voices be heard throughout the four corners of the world. We will let it be known that the Negro is still alive. England, France, Italy and the rest of them shall know that the Negro is now making his demand for the return of his native land. Cowardly Negroes may cringe and bow before what they think to be superior powers, but we of the Universal Negro Improvement Association shall never bow. We shall fight for the cause of African redemption because we believe Independence For Negroes If it is just for the Englishmen to be free; if it is just for Frenchmen to be free, then it will be just for black men to be free in the land of their fathers. Therefore, there is no compromise; there is no apology for what we have said and done. We are making a fight for freedom and for democracy; so let us enter into the spirit of the 1929 convention as real men. Let us remember that it takes manhood and backbone to win the battle of life, and such manhood and backbone we want in the Universal Negro Improvement Association and in the Negro race. Let every one rally around the Universal Negro Improvement Association during the month of August. Let every one give whatsoever financial and moral support possible, and then we shall feel sure that the program can be put over. Thanking you for the support you have given in the past, and feeling sure of its continuance, with very best wishes, I have the honor to be Your obedient servant, (Signed) Mareen Saney President-General, Universal Negro Improvement Association.

Friends came from far and near, and when the time for the opening of the meeting arrived the hall was fairly crowded. Many old faces were recognized among the audience, who had gathered to bid farewell, to another group of the delegates on the way to take part in the deliberations of the Sixth International Convention of the Negro Peoples of the World, shortly to be opened in Kingston, Jamaica, British West Indies. The waves of enthusiasm ran high and rose higher and higher, as delegate after delegate, on being announced by the chairman, came to the platform and expressed their determination to follow the cause of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to the very end, and to hold up the hands of the President-General, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, in all his efforts to carry the program to a successful conclusion. Seated on the platform were Mrs. E. Capres, President of the Garvey Club, Inc., Mr. Martin Jackson, of Washington, D. C., Mrs. Bettle Lyle, also of Washington, D. C., Mr. David Bryant, of Charleston, S. C., Mr. A. J.

Brown, editor of The Negro World. The audience was regaled with the sweet strains of music by the band, under the direction of Prof. Ulrick Hassell, and the U. A. Legion, under command of Col. J. W. Bellamy, and Lt.-Col. J. N. Robinson (who is also a delegate to the convention) the Black Cross Nurses, the Motor Corps, and the Junior Cadet Corps, did much to add to the attractiveness of the evening's meeting. Owing to there being so many delegates to be presented, the speakers had to be limited in their addresses, but they rose to the occasion in the short time allotted them, and carried conviction to the hearts of their hearers. Hon. Betty Lyle of Washington, in her calm, deliberate, and earnest manner won the hearts of the friends and members in the audience, and it seemed as if a new spirit had been born among those who sat and listened to the expressions of faithfulness and loyalty to the cause, by this mild-mannered daughter of Ethiopia. Hon. Capt. Alleyne, of the Legions, and Hg). William Cunningham, also delegates from the Garvey Club, Inc., were given a roaring reception. It was also farewell for Mr. Cunningham, who leaves Tuesday for the Isle of Springs in the blue Caribbean. Hon. A. J. Johnson, president of the St. Louis, Mo. division, was introduced by the chairman, as the speaker of the evening: Mr. Johnson told of the pleasure it gave him to be present at a meeting of this kind, to help advance the cause of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, for the uplift of the race, and the redemption of the fatherland. It was rather a surprise, he said, to have to be announced as the speaker of the hour. He had not expected any such honored place, and had not come prepared to make the speech of the occasion; but as a soldier in the cause Afric, he said, he behaved him to be always ready to meet any and all emergencies, that the work of this great association may not want for a man to stand up for it. When he began to tell of the greetings he had brought to the friends and members of the Garvey Club, Inc. from the co-workers in the various towns and cities through which he had passed on his way to New York. He told of the growing respect that was being accorded to the U. N. I. A., and of the effect it had on those who once would not concede to the Negro the right of manhood. He then warmed up to his address and kept the interest and enthusiasm of the audience riding higher and higher as the moments passed by, and when, at the close he washed them "Good-bye," the crowd gave vent to its pent up feelings, a loud wave of applause.

Representative, Edwards, Georgia, Declares Encouragement of Latter Will Be Rebuked SYLVANIA, Ga., July 4 (AP) — Representative Charles G. Edwards, Democrat, of the First Georgia District, in an address here today declared the negro should continue to have "justice, fair play and equality before the law," but "there should never be anything like social equality of the whites and blacks." Mr. Edwards, while delivering an address at the unveiling of a memorial on the site of the Battle of Briar Creek, referred to the entertaining of the wife of Representative Oscar De Priest of Illinois at the White House, and declared "the horrible mistake of encouraging uncle practice of the blacks and whites, who must live side by side in this country, is more unfortunate than can be imagined, and does greater harm to the black man than he ever dreams of." "This country must not only be protected against the hordes of undesirable immigrants who would not make good citizens," he said, "but it must go on its course as a white man's country, and the great demographics of the country will be blamed blood for thousands of years, will not tolerate social equality, even in high places, without giving the rebuke."

Off and on during the decade since the end of the World War of occupation meant the mechanization of America. Industry have come with increasing vigor from Morgan Machine. Their leaders assert that the introduction of labor saving devices into our process of worth production carry in their wake unused hardships for the Negro worker in particular; that the machine industry reduces the number of workers performing a given task and of the same. This increases output; that the mechanizing stakes the machine; that the Negro worker is always hardest hit by the evil of unemployment. Grandstanding above to be true, it seems to me however, that the hag for criticism rots not so much upon the machine as a substitute for human toll, but upon the fact that in our present 'unsocial system the machine which origardity should be a blessing to mankind turns out to be a curse. In the dawn of a man's antiquity certain 'immutable laws of life have been established. 1. Man cannot live without food, fuel, clothing and shelter. 2. He cannot live well without books, homes, pictures, music, literature, gardens, places of pleasure and means to transport himself and his belongings, together with the leisure for their enjoyment. Nature has provided in abundance—certainly here in the United States—the raw materials out of which the skill and experience of workers may provide all these things—the great improvements of modern industry have so increased the productive power of the workers that, today abundance for all can be produced and the working day so shortened that there will be ample leisure for all. But the lands, tools, factories, storehouses and transportation lines are legally owned by a comparatively few individuals, and the many can use none of these things without the consent of the few who are legal owners. Moreover, the legal owners do not consent that the workers shall use either the nature resources of the tobs of industry unless control and ownership remain in the hands of said legal owners. These owners can refuse employment to any particular worker for the latter has no legal right to the natural resources of the land nor to the tools of production, and, his inalienable right to life, liberty and happiness is lost sight of beside his employer's legal right of ownership and control of these socially necessary but privately owned instruments. A child born in the family of the legal owner may inherit productive property, and, through this private ownership of the land and machines which others must use, he is also born to be their master as surely as they are born to be his servants. An exception now and then does not materially affect the rule. This results in piling up great wealth for the few who create no wealth, and great poverty for the many—the workers—who create all wealth. Thus, on the one hand we have a few people hasking on the pinnacles of opulence and idleness, and on the other the many groping in the chytral pits of poverty and toll. By virtue of their ownership of the natural resources and instruments of wealth production the few exercise upon governments, the press, the pulpit and the schools and undue influence, and are able thereby to reduce the worker to a state of intellectual, physical and social inferiority, political subservience and virtual slavery. He assumed in thus the worker through the instrumentality of his trade union organization strives for a voice in determining how many hours he shall work, how much he shall turn out, how much he shall receive in his pay for his labor. He shall be employed. In the absence of labor/organization employers aptly decide these questions to the disadvantage of the workers. Intelligent workers also strive to effect their own political organizations. Time was when the Negro worker functioning largely in an agrarian world and in the personal service class could not, so readily establish labor THE WHEN damp days, sudden changes in weather, or exposure to a draft makes joints ache, there is always quick relief in Bayer Aspirin.

Today, however, due to the mechanization process, the worker is still being and is engaged into industry. The human agricultural life of the past afforded the Negro an opportunity to establish powerful fraternal and religious organizations; many of these institutions are still useful, and may under competent, unimaginable leadership yet serve as a basis for fundamental cooperation action. To be best served easily recognized by our industry that the task confronting the Negro worker today one of statistical operations to the industrial industry, but the establishment of trade union and cooperative organizations through which like other workers, he can reduce his working hours, increase wages and generally exercise some degree of control over his job, his life and the machine. Eventually an enlightened society of useful workers will take over and collectively manage and operate for service instead of for private profits these mechanical giants of production and distribution; and by so doing transform the machine from an alleged enemy of the worker to man's natural benefactor. I chafe for the day. Colored Population of North Platte Ordered to Leave After Policeman in Shin (By The Associated Press) NORTH PLATTE, Neb., July 13. —Negroes here began leaving North Platte by automobile, trains and other conveyances this afternoon as a result of threats by a mob which formed after Edward Green, a policeman, had been shot and killed by Louis Seelman, a Negro. Seelman later shot and killed himself, but the mob that formed at his home retained its formation despite threats to break up. Threats of violence were heard by members of the mob shouted orders to Negroes to leave town at once. Some of them left on foot. Shot During Arrest The shooting grow out of an attempt by Green to arrest Seelman, who had previously been ordered to leave town in lieu of paying a $100 fine for beating Ada Miller, a Negress with whom he lived. He went to Agallala and came back this morning. The woman then notified the police, and Green and another officer want to arrest him. Green was shot with a sawed-off shotgun as he entered Seelman's room. Patrolman Pitzgibbons, who accompanied him, was unarmed. He gave an alarm downstairs and stood near the front of the house. Help came in, and Seelman fused to come out a gasoline fire was set around it. Later, Seelman could not be found. Finally, he was discovered under a trap door. Again he refused to come out of the small basement room and gasoline was poured over the trap door. /Seelman then shot himself as the flames began to creep about him. He died while being carried out of the house. Two Hundred Negroes in Town The mob outside the house grew with the passing of the hours. Stieks were wielded. Police immediately swoe in extra men and patrolled the Negro district. They estimated there were about 290 Negroes in the city before they started their out- ward Negroes, also were guarded on their dept. Ada Miller left by automobile for Council Bluffs, police said. Other Negroes said they were bound for Kearney, Neb.; Julesburg Col.; Denver and Omaha. Green was a popular policeman here. He had served on the force for five years as a patrolman and also as acting chief. Hot Weather Hints Drink plenty of water, cold milk, lemonade and fecal tea with plenty of lemon juice in it. Yes, even iced tea will be a healthful beverage, when it is well flavored with lemon. Eat plenty of fresh, green vegetables and fresh ripe fruits—naw, in salad form, in fruit cups, in light desserts or any way, in which they may be rolled. Be very partial to oranges. They serve the body with an abundance of liquid and tend to reduce or prevent acidity that may come from the overeating of heavy acid-producing foods. Eat plenty of berries—wild and tame. Feature lettuce, celery, cabbage, carrots, string beans and greens of all kinds. Get plenty of sleep; have your windows open wide at night; take a daily bath; exercise. Do these things and you need not worry about what the hot weather will do to you. Chelsea Exchange Opens New Harlem Branch Quarters With 20,000 Depositors Wanted Own Church Head And Bishop ADDIS - ABABA, Abyssinia, July 11—(Special)—Amid scenes of medieval pomp and color, Ethiopia, the oldest Christian empire in Africa, has elected a new patriarch, or aboona as spiritual leader of 3,000,000 Ethiopians. Abyssinia has been without an aboona since the death of Aboona Matheos in December, 1926, which was followed closely by the death of the patriarch in Egypt. Election of the Egyptian patriarch took considerable time, pending which the appointment of a new aboona was in abeyance. Under Egypt's Patriarch Although Abyssinia is politically an independent state, the patriarch of Egypt holds religious jurisdiction Completion, of plans to meet the growing demand, for banking service among the Negro population of Harlem were celebrated two weeks ago with the opening of spacious quarters For the Harlem Branch of the Chelsea Exchange Bank at 135th street and Seventh avenue. This site is diagonally opposite the quarters occupied by the bank during the seventeen years that it has been keeping pace with the growth and business progres of that section. The new Harlem avenue was installed in the most up-to-date and tastefully decorated quarters occupied by any bank in that section of the city. These new quarters will give the branch approximately twice the floor space that has been occupying across the street and give room for the conduct of activities which were either impossible or much restricted in the old quarters. A STUDENTS SOUTH MAKE STUDY OF RACE RELATIONS ATLANTA, Ga., July 11—During the month of June representatives of the Commission on Interracial Cooperation carried the message of inter-racial good will personally to more than a thousand young white men and women assembled in summer conferences from the colleges and high schools of all the Southern states. At the joint Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. Student. Conference at Hollister, Mo., Mrs. Jessie Daniel Ames, director of woman's work of the Inter-racial Commission, conducted a discussion group on race relations and made a public address. Observers report that she completely won the young people to an intelligent and sympathetic viewpoint on this subject. Similar work was done at the Y. W. C. A. Student Conference at Blue Ridge, N. C., by R. B. Elcaser, educational director of the commission, in an eight-day discussion course on the subject, and also addressed the entire body of students, secretaries and leaders. Following this he conducted a similar course at the Girl Reserve Camp at Brevard, where there were 150 picked representatives from high schools throughout the entire Southeast. At the Y. M. C. A. Student Conference at Blue Ridge, Dr. W. W. Alexander, the commission's director general, led a group in a series of studies of the inter-racial situation. Among the matters brought with special force to the attention of the young people at the several conferences were such outstanding injustices as lynching, discrimination in school facilities and other public advantages, arbitrarily denial of citizenship rights, and inhumane and inconsiderate attitudes. Cooperation with the growing movement for racial realization was the duty of all intelligent, fair-minded people. At all these conferences course fraternal delegates were present and took part on the program. A fine spirit was manifested by all concerned, and permanent results are confidently expected. Leaders in the effort for better inter-racial adjustment in the south feel that no more over the Greek Orthodox population of Ethiopia, and construct the edifice of the aboona, who must be subject of King Fund of Egypt. As soon however, as the Egyptian patriarch, Johannes XII was elected, the Abyssinian government sent to Egypt, Sahie Seddah, minister of admonition, as the act, in dismay of the question, the appointment of the queen, World Gus Abba. In Abyssinia a considerable body think it essential the aboona should no longer be an Egyptian, but as Abyssinian, and that further Abyssinian bishops should be appointed On the other hand, the Greek Orthodox Church of Egypt, otherwise known as the Copt Church, consider it essential the aboona should be as Egyptian. Further, the Egyptian are opposed to appointing Abyssinian bishops, since following the laws of the church, three bishops can consecrate an aboona. This difference of opinion has been solved by mutual concessions, between the two governments. Here after the aboons shall as in the past be an Egyptian. On the other hand five Abuynian bishops are to be appalled but they are to obey the orders to swear they will not consecrate to aboona or king under pain of excommunication. substantial part of the additional space has been given over to a modern safe deposit vault capable of taking care of the entire district's demands for this kind of service. E. S. Rothchild, president of the Chelsea Exchange Bank, was on hand to direct the opening of the new quarters. Charles G. Rapp, vice president, who has been in charge of the Harlem branch since its opening seventeen years ago, will continue to direct its affairs in the new quarters. The Chelsea Exchange operates six banking places in various parts of the city. Mr. Gardens the expansion of the bank's facilities as a tribute to the thriftiness of the Negro race in Harlem. All funds, securities and records of the Harlem branch were moved over the week-end in accordance with a well laid plan. The branch starts in its new quarters with 20,000 accounts on its books. Instructors of State School Studying At Universities Plan Big Fall-Building-Program MONTGOMERY, Ala., July 13. The Alabama State Normal system which has the largest enrollment of summer teachers of any Negro institutions in the country, is represented by eleven of its instructors studying in some of the leading institutions this summer to meet the needs of a rapidly developing program which will be greatly stimulated this fall by a building program that will involve the expenditure of over $500,000. The faculty members who are studying in Columbia University are: Mrs. S. J. Govan, Messrs. Gaston F. Lewis and C. J. Dunn. Misses Ruth Johnson and Ollie Brown are enrolled at the University of Iowa. Miss Lola Barlow is at the University of Wisconsin. Miss Rosa Shaw is at the University of Chicago. Mr. C. A. Johnson is doing special work in band music at Tuskegee and Misses Placidia Thippen. M. T. Garner and Dora Beverly are doing special work at Hampton. In addition to the summer work of these teachers, and several others who have credit on their graduate degrees, the State Normal School has four members of the regular faculty and six of the summer faculty who are holding the A. M. degree. important work is being done than through such contacts with the generation now in school, who naturally are more, open-minded than older people, and are destined to exercise so wide an influence in the future. DRAW ANYTHING YOU WANT TO DO! Only $1.98 Are you blue and unhappy? Brian and emeritus admiral John Thomas, president. The program was supported by students of the University of Washington, High School (Ellen). Those who participated are John Bruce Claire, Daniel Haggerty, Elizabeth Dixon, Jesse Roberts, Neal Gilch, Harnettige Walker, Dorothy Farrington, Milfred Allen, and Carmela Fruit. They exhibited a very high quality of admirability, which is the characterization of the pupils of Washington under the able and same directory of Prof. E. J. Granberry and faculty. Every item was a credit. The program comprised instrumental solos, recitations, duets and vocal solo. The recitation entitled "Lift Up the Black Man's Burden" by Miss Jennie Roberts was the climax. The president strove hard to impress upon the audience and especially the students the necessity to be the best individual in business, the professions, leadership, society and citizenship. Mrs. Margaret Gibson, lady president, acted as mistress of ceremonies in very fine style. Two persons applied for membership. The Ethiopian Anthem and Benediction brought the meeting to a close. 41 Graduate From Athens High School 41 Graduate From Athens High School ATHENS, Ga., July 1—Before an audience of nearly a thousand, including many of the city's most prominent people, white and colored, the student body of Athens High and Industrial School rendered a commencement program of unusual interest, at which diplomas were conferred upon forty-one graduates in the various departments. In addition to many delightful musical numbers, excellent drollions were delivered by two of the graduates, Miss Mitte C. Howard and Ernest C. Cobb. Many prizes were awarded to excelling students. The commencement address was delivered by R. B. Elasear, of Atlanta, who spoke on "Co-operation, Not Conflict: the Law of Progress." The school, under the direction of Prof. S. F.

In the latter the University of Georgia, located in the same city, lends its co-operation, nine of the university professors teaching in the summer school and giving courses which are accepted for credit by the state department of education. The co-operation of the university has been of incalculable value, according to Prof. Harris, and is very greatly appreciated.

MOUS arations ORLD D PALMER'S KIN TENER rations a youthful Donations to the Negro World Donations to the Negro World "Why America's motto, has swa- ansed the West Indian Negro to the call of African nationalism." "Africa, his motherland, must be freed from oppression if the Negro or black race must live on and on." "We, as West Indians, are an ambitious, law-abiding and race-loving people; and are self conscious; to the fact that when an idea is entertained within the mind, the possibilities of that thing becoming a manifestation is without question. The law of cause and effect operates in all things correspondently, whether organic or inorganic. And since human beings are the highest type of animals, controlled by common-sense and not instinct, they naturally become more conscious to the recognition of that law, regardless of creed, color or nationality. That law eventually becomes a yearning for justice, freedom, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, within the human development. And believe me, if that yearning for civilized happiness is imposed upon, I'll say: "Watch out, Mr. Opressor, you have a job you will not be able to master." For oppression to a race on account of color, is simply debarring your own progress to further civilization. And it so exists that in this present day civilization, the Negro or Black race is oppressed, in which race the West Indian is included with no less consideration. So please we ask no consideration, so long as our brothers at home and abroad are oppressed; for we have realized that we are descendants of one man and determined to have one God, 'endeavoring' towards one aim, and can have but one Destiny. We West Indians leave our shores in quest for higher knowledge, and bigger opportunities, with the intention of expanding our ambition; to further civilization, with the product of our visions. AT GULFSIDE CLANS GATHER WORK AND PLAY WAVELAND, Miss., July — Among the interesting features last month, at Bishop Jones' Gulfside summer conference, center was a social work institute, headed by Forrester B. Washington, director of the Atlanta School of Social Work, which was attended by more than twenty professional and volunteer social workers from New Orleans and other towns in Louisiana and Mississippi. Other members of the faculty were from the University of Alabama and the science of the Atlanta school; Miss V. G. Harrison, director of People's Community Center, New Orleans, and C. K. Stainaker, director of Williams Community Center in the same city. The institute was considered so successful that plans are, being made for a more ambitious effort next summer. Simultaneously an institute on health and home economics was being carried on, in which the principal speaker was Dr. George E. Vincent, president of the Rockefeller Foundation. Other leaders in this institute were Prof. Monroe N. Work, of Tuskegee Institute; Elmer A. Carter, editor of "Opportunity" and Dean S. Yarbrough. Culfside is the most important institution of its kind for Negroes in the United States and the only one in the South possessing a large acreage with a very fine beach and a number of good buildings, it is summer the center of important religious, social and recreational activities for colored people, to millions of whom it is accessible, by a few hours' travel by train or automobile. Bishop Jones and the Gulfside Association have been assisted in the development of the institution by some of the big philanthropic agencies which have recognized its great possibilities.

One of America's great mottoes: "America, the land of the free and the home of the brave," nerves us on in the quest for freedom. Yes, most decidedly, it is a land of freedom; for it frees the mind of the West Indian Negro from superstition, selfishness, class prejudice, and old-custom; and habit ideas. All those mental shadows veiled his mind due to the deception of the white man's psychology. Yes, most decidedly, it is the home of the brave; because it has inspired him, more than any other part of the world, to the realization of the necessity of racial consciousness, to be brave, and night for his freedom, through the opposition, hatred, and discrimination, the encounter in this great America. And now that he has been charged up through the great motto: "America, the land of the free and the home of the brave," he is determined to use America's deception for his own future benefit, in blasting through the gates of Hell; and claiming victory and true to goodness freedom.

Mr. Grundy is an indefatigable worker, who spares no pain when it comes to going after subscriptions for the Negro World.

Southern members of both houses are denouncing it as an acknowledgment of social equality between the two races. The White House points out that the function which Mrs. De Priest attended was the last of a series of similar affairs given by Mrs. Hoover to the wives of Representatives and that more than 100 guests were invited. This has failed to mobilize the southerners who are, at white heat as a result of the statement attributed to Representative De Priest. The lightened joyful measure at the fine social contacts my wife was able to make at the White House" asserted De Priest; "and that there was no tendency whatever toward discrimination against her at the tea. She greatly enjoyed herself and is greatly delighted." "I deplore the incident beyond measure," declared Senator Sheppard. Democrat, Texas, author of the Eighteenth Amendment. "It is recognition of social equality between the white and the black races and is fraught with infinite danger to our white civilization." "I deplore the incident very much," said Senator Hein, Democrat, Alabama, who was a Hoover campaigner. "It was a serious mistake. Roosevelt made the same mistake in a different way but I understand that SPELMAN PRESI GRADUAT ATLANTA. Gn., July I.—Miss Florence M. Read, president of Spelman College, this city, was the recipient a few days ago of a distinguished honor when her alma mater, Mount Holyoke College, located at South Hadley, Maas, conferred on her the honorary, degree of doctor of letters. Miss Read received her bachelor of arts degree from Mount Holyoke, in 1003, and in recognition of distinguished scholarship, was elected to Peace an Impossibility With Previous Wrongs — Africa Must Be Restored to Rightful Owners All of this discussion about the disarmament of the strong nations of the world, without any reference, whatsoever, to the disposition of Africa, is meaningless chatter. They are simply trying to fool each other. We are wise to their game, and do not intend to be caught "mapping"—the next time. If those thieves and robbers do not give us back our birthright, we are going to raise so much hell with "somebody," that they will have to hold a "re-armament" conference—just like, they are now doing in secret. No one wants peace any more than the poor "over-worked" blacks, but the peace is an impossibility without the prejuvenile of previous wrongs. The somebody is in our home—without permission—and we want them to vacate! Peacefully, if they will; or be driven out, if needs be. This is our hiatum to the DISARMAMENT ENTHUSIAFTS. Those of us in America, want Africa restored; those of us in the West Indies, want Africa restored; those of us in South and Central America, want Africa restored; and most certainly do those in Africa, want Africa restored to its rightful OWNERS. The time for a lawful settlement is at hand, and only authorized COLLECTORS are to be sent to Genova in October to negotiate the deal. So we suggest that they (the Powers) prepare to "dearm" some of their ill-gotten wealth and loot.

Called "Deplorable" "It is as deplorable as it is astounding," said Senator Harrison, Democrat, Mississippi. "If there is one thing the people of the South look on with grave concern and anxiety, it is any tendency toward social equality between the races." Immediate effects of the incident are expected Tuesday when a "Hoover Democratic" convention, called by Bishop James Cannon, Jr., meets in Roanok, Va. to name independent candidates for State offices. Whether the bishop, who is generally believed to be an aspirant for either the Governorship or the Senatorial toge of Satector James, can hold the bolters from bolting them into the old party now that the race issue has been raised is problematical. TENNESSEE TOWN EXPRESSSES DISAPPROVAL KNOVVILLE, Tenn. Local leaders are giving generous expressions to their disapproval of the social recognition accorded by the White House to the wife of the Chicago Negro Representative, De Priest.

I AM YOUR FRIEND ONLY $1.98 bringing this matter to your attention all something is done; till the Negress of Harlem realize the gravity of the situation, and begin to own more in Harlem than they do, then they seem to care. It is more than a shame that we, in this locality have not thought of owning any of the things that are vital to the inhabitants of any township. We seem to have forgotten that the progress and prosperity of any community depends upon how much is held by its dwellers. Upon how large a share of the real and other wealth in that neighborhood is controlled by them. The time has come when the Negro dwellers of Harlem must wake up; must rise out of the slumber which has enshrouded our eyes, and begin to realize that our worth, our standing will be dependent largely upon what we own in the community, and how much of its industries or enterprises we control. There is no time like the present. As long as we continue to be mainly rent-payers and lease-holders we shall continue to have less of the respect of our fellows than we ought to have. And we can rent and spout as much as we like the fact remains, that as long as we are content to remain subjected to the whims and caprices of landlords, and other business men who control the destiny of the section, we will not be respected as we ought to be. We must start somewhere, and earn respect, then we can command respect. Why should Negro dollars always go to fatten the pockets of those who are in no way interested in us, except to gouge us? Is this a confession of inability on our part? Is it a confession of our being too lazy to think for our own betterment? Is it a demonstration of the unfitness of the Negro to survive, and to hold his place among other men? THINK, Fellow-men, think! Then ACT.

XXV. NEW YORK; SATURDAY, JULY 27; 1929 No. 25 THE GATHERING OF THE CLANS IN A FEW short days hence the eyes of Negroes all over the world will be focused upon the city of Kingston, in the island of Jamaica, British West Indies; for there will be gathered the largest and most imposing array of Negro delegates that have ever assembled in the history of the race. DESTINY and WILL By R. T. BROWN We are the creatures of our wills, no matter how much we say to the contrary. We make or break ourselves. Our thoughts, our acts make life worth living, or make it sad, disconsolate, hopeless and dejected. We are not the creatures of destiny, as some so stoutly believe, bound to live our lives according to a schedule that was set before the worlds were formed. Not mere pawns in the hands of Fate, to be toyed with at will. We are not mere driftwood on the sea, like a ship in the wind and waves; or chaff before the wind, to be blown in every direction, without a voice in the direction or control of our affairs. In making this statement we take opposition to some learned writers of a past day; but experience in millions of cases has demonstrated the fact that we are right. Representatives from every corner of the globe where Negroes live are expected to meet in this gathering of the clans; and like as the Scottish highlanders in days gone by, when a large and important meeting took place, the men who met there were of stern souls, and high purpose, determined too that nothing short of death was going to prevent them from carrying out the reforms which they were bent on securing. They come from Africa, east, west, central and south. They come from the islands of the seas; from the various sections of the United States of America; from Canada, to meet on one common ground, for one common purpose, animated by one common desire, thirsting for one common realization; the securing for themselves and for their children's children the hearing of their grievances by the supreme court of humanity, and the acquisition of that status of nationhood, which they feel is rightfully theirs, and which they also feel ought not to be denied them by one one, no matter whom that person may be. Shades of the great ancestors of a race that taught mankind the arts and sciences, and blazed the path to progress and civilization, will hover over that august gathering. Inanimate forms will pervade the other around that vast assemblage, and the spirits of the dead and sleeping heroes of past ages will again be re-incarnated in the sons and daughters of Ethiopia as they sit around the council table of that great conclave, and plan and think out ways and means for the lifting of the race from the sloughs of despondency, and placing it on a level with the other races of the sons of men. It was Frank Channing Haddock, who wrote thus in "Power of Will": "The will is god, the will is man. The will is power loosed in thought. In soul the unfaithful will began, and in soul the unfaithful will thought. Nothing is soulless entity. All one—to will, to act, to be. Hearts will beat high with hope as they feel the surge of the blood in their veins, as visions of great ancestors of a long gone day pass before The best his mature propheies; Master of Fate, executive of Self, Art thou a pigmy? Courage, soul, For thee, as all, the knight goal. race can be, if it will but stand united, and work hand in hand for the good of the sons and daughters of Ethiopia, and the freedom and redemption of Africa. This is a strong truth, powerfully stated. We would that every son of Ham would learn the truth of these statements. We would that every Negro would come into a realization of the practical utility of these truths; realize that they can be actually demonstrated in our lives, and then go on living them, day by day. What transformations there would be in store for us, if even a small percentage of the people of our race would come to know the truth about these things. During that period of thirty-one days of council, and plan, and deep, earnest, clear thought, heroes will be born, whose lives will lighten the world. Great souls will find the avenue for expression and expansion; and the dream of Africa redeemed will become nearer a reality. If we are to judge by the emotional, heaving of the breasts, and the flashing of the eyes of those who have passed from us here; if they are a symbol, an example of what the others will be, then we can rest assured that the deliberations and decisions which will be arrived at that gathering of the clans will be the most far-reaching, not only in the history of this race of Negroes, but in the history of mankind. When truth gets a hold on human hearts and minds and souls, there is surely going to be a change, and a change for the better. There are yet many who are inclined to scoff. There are still others who are skeptical as to the good results that come from these gatherings from time to time; but the world, may take it from us, that no set of mortals ever went forth to battle, or to death, with more unswerving loyalty to a cause, with a calnier determination, or a more sincere appreciation of the tasks ahead, or the problems to be confronted and solved during and after the rising of the Sixth International Convention of the Negro Peoples of the World, than these delegates. From now on let us come to an understanding of the truth as it has Men of heroic self-will, grim purpose, and souls steeled for the essaying of the sternest and most gruelling tests that can ever come to mortals will meet their fellows at that great council table. Unfaltering faith will be required of those who take part in that concluding, as well as those of us who stand on the side lines to hold the fort while they are, planning and shaping the course along which this race must travel to nationhood. We shall need a tenacity of purpose which has not yet been exhibited by any race of men since the world began. We shall have to develop the souls like our fathers in the days when earth was young. We shall have to learn to disregard death and every kind of consequence, for upon our attitude shall depend the future of this race of Negroes. There is something radically wrong with a group of people who refuse to help relayey their own burdens. The day of throwing bouquets is gone forever. The Afro-American must face the facts as they exist. We won't gain anything by fooling ourselves into thinking that everything is right. Everything, affecting values of Afro-American, is acting. The sooner we will begin to work for our own salvation, the sooner will we attain our rightful place as American citizens—Philadelphia Tribune. Therefore, fellow-Negrocs, let us remember, come life, come death, come anything, come the crash, of worlds and the end of time, the work of the U.N.I.A. goes marching on, fighting, struggling, straining, tirelessly striving till the goal of Negro freedom and African redemption shall have been won. "Men are not given freedom; they take it. Men endure slavery while they have the spirit of slaves; but when they develop manhood, women the master's spirit; and when Quentin in a copyrighted article in the Washington Post, And as the clans gather in that magic island of the blue Caribbean let us write again our vows on the signboard of heaven. Let us lift our hands in solemn token of our promise renewed; feel the blood of our valiant fathers' course through our veins, hear again the battle cry of Carthage as we echo forth the cry, that "the Negro must be free," and "Africa must be redeemed." By the same token Jim Crow cars are made for Jim Crow people. Segregation is for those of the herd instinct. When the people wake up; when they are able to climb by their own boot-straps; when they are able to climb by their own sufficiently strong to break their own shackles, their humiliations and suffering will disappear. WHAT DO WE OWN IN HARLEM? THERE are those of us who feel a snug complacency, as we strut about the streets of Harlem, and feel the presence of these piles of brick, and stone and mortar, as they flank our walk; and we think that that Harlem is a Negro section, a colored township. Legislation may make freed-men, but never free man. Men must take themselves free. That is the history of mankind.—Star of Zion. But let us get down to the truth of the matter. Is Harlem a Negro township in reality, or are we only fooling ourselves? What do we Negroes own in Harlem? What percentage of the drug stores, or groceries, meat shops, dry good stores, cabarrets, shoe stores, and other kinds of business do we own in Harlem? Is the property held by the members of our race group, representative of the large population of Negroes in this locality? And, if it is true that a larger number of Negroes live in Harlem than of any other race group, is it not perfectly feasible that since we are the larger race group here we ought to own a larger share of the real and other property in this district, and also a correspondingly larger share of the business enterprises in this locality? We have called the attention of our Negro brethren to this matter. We are waiting attention to it again; and we intend to have BIG TIMBER MEN There is a measure of truth in the saying that there is a sitting process going on in society, by which a man will continually land his between some men are destined for the bottom, and place them where he will and prompt them how we may, they end up at the bottom. There are men born not the top, and they may be born in the bottom, but in time they rise to a place of commanding prominence. This sitting process in a tree arrangement has not gone by the empirical evidence. never been known to us before. We can do with our lives whatever we will to do. We can make masters of ourselves, or we can make misfaits. We can mould our environment, and destroy our own courses, our own destiny, if we can make us carry the etheric forces round about us carry out our will. What is it that we most desire? Is it life, love, power, friends, or fortune? We have within us the power to bring fifo: our lives anything that we can want to be, or to do. We can turn the tide of seeming, so-called lil-lick, stem the flow of disasters. We are masters of Fate, as I said before. We are all. We can. We can triumph over every form of obstacle, and rise above all the sordid conditions that confront us, and make of ourselves anything that we want to be. Learn the great truths of life. Learn of the power within. Learn that you are master of your fate. Resolve to make the most of yourself, and stick to that resolve. If you are earnest, if you are sincere, if you have courage, if you will not let circumstances daunt you, if you will not bow the knee to any form of ob- servation, if you will not up-and- up be a mab, a mab's man-part in the battle of life, you will at last realize that you have arrived to the place you carved out for yourself, and filling your soul with the power of infinity, go forth under Gods' heaven a master and a man. You can make of life whatever you want it to be. GOD AND HIS HOSTS By CHAFFEE HOWLAND (Dedicated to John B.

In recent years, such men as Roland Hayes, Harry Earleigh, Paul Roberson, Jules Bledsoe et al, have succeeded in showing many American people the beauty in Negro music, rendered by Negroes. However, it has been heard in such places only which were public spirited enough to guarantee these artists large sums for their appearance. The admission fee is large and consequently the average white person, who after all, conceived the music, is heard them. The sound picture presents the opportunity to allow America as a whole to see and hear Negro artists at their best, at a small price and which permits the average fellow to come to appreciate these fine contributions the Negro makes to the country—the Iowa Bystander. Colored Americans are the only race, responsible members of which are in favor of submitting to discrimination on the claim that their race, always will be discriminated against." The Jews are still contending, after over 1900 years of universal discrimination, and are winning even social rights today. "The Irish at home have contended for 700 years and are winning because they will die rather than submit. The race that says it's of no use to resist, downs itself and the world then will say, "Negroes are not worthy of equal rights; they are by nature without self-request and have no勇气." The world respects only those who refuse and resist prescriptions for race. Let us be worthy of the abolitionists, worthy of our own fathers who have died in every way that we understand the title of their race to equal liberty, and survive ruined death of rights in our native land, deliver lives long and discriminatory may extinction. To emulate is to destroy equality—Baker **FOUNDER: Mandela Ibrahim** To the Editor of The Negro World: The very splendid article contributed by Mother B. E. Island of Mozambique, Canada to the issue of July 6th was truly the most elaboration on religious reformation. The reader of The Negro World should digg! July the truth portrayed in that wonderful exposition on heavenly paradise and earthly needs. Our illiterate preachers have largely been responsible for this ridiculous doctrine: "Take all the world, but give me Jesus." And at the same time, they were striving to get as much of this world's good as our meager purses would supply. The mages which we have contributed to them, did not bring financial equipment to our material needs; therefore, we should call a halt to their "Haven bye and bye" preachment. Christ was sent into the world to teach Love. God created the world for man—not man for the world. He wants us to love Him in the highest spiritual sense; then love our neighbors in the highest brotherly sense. That should be our religion, so simple that even a child would not err; but not a multiplicity of creeds and denominations, that neither we nor the creators of such, are able to understand. This brings us to a second lesson. Our religion is intended for our God rather than ourselves for the religion of others (I John IV:12 reads); "No man hath God at any time. If we love him another God dwelleth in us, and His love is perfected in us." Let us all adopt such wholesome truths and renounce foolish religious inconsistencies. ARTHUR S. GRAY. Los Angeles, Calif. Africa Is Calling Your country is anxiously waiting for you.

Argumentate, Comanani, Santa Clara, Cuba. The Editor of the Negro World: Thank you for space in your column in complimenting our worthy Editor, Mr. R. T. Brown for his wonderful article of "Shoulder Arms," on the 22nd of June issue of The Negro World. -May I say, every true Negro who reads with interest that article as I did, should feel the blood mith through his veins and in a signal to the military parade in a signal to be pressed to march forward to make the demands known, to make our voices heard in one unanimous cry, that "Africa must be free." "Africa must be free." is our duty, our Cause, our Obligation, our Enthusiasm, for which we live and all are ready to die. The appeal of this proposition is to every Negro alike no matter wherever he is born. Because of this determination we are standing at the threshold of a Era. The Era on the earth is A with its 11,000 members stand up as and tell the world that there will be no peace on earth, till the "Negro is free." The struggles of the twentieth century both in peace and in war, were devoted largely to overcoming the aristocratic position as applied to individuals. In establishing the equal right of every person to development, it became clear that equal opportunity for the Negro involves this necessary limitation. Liberty comes to mean the right of the Negro to end life, to acquire property, to pursue happiness in each a member and to such an extent as up to other fellow members. Liberty then extends to citizenship. Liberty then extends to a large part of the Western world. Even in the Continent of Africa, where this equal right of the Negro has not yet been adopted, or a political right, its political claim will have to gain recognition. The Negro defended, to Liberty, and the beginning of pure agriculture and the development of jumanian as applied to people, as he rejected it as applied to individuals. The Negro has believed that each race has something of popular value, which it can contribute to the attainment of those high ideals, for which it is striving. The Negro believes that he must not only give to the nations the best that is in him, but must preserve for himself the best that is in him and develop in him the best of which he capable. The Negro has believed that in differentiation, not in uniformity, lies the progress. The Negro has petitioned our liberty, has been detailed, has illustrated to arrest the tyrannical hands of the oppressors. The Negro petitioned has been slighted, his remonstration has produced additional and violent insults. The Negro has supplicated, his supplications have been disregarded, has been spurned with contempt. In vain after those things may we indulge in fond hope of peace and reconciliation. There is no longer any room for hope. "If we wish to be free, if we mean to preserve inviolate those investible privileges, for which we have been so long contending; if we mean not to abandon the poble struggle in which we have been so long engaged, and which we have pledged ourselves never to abandon until the glorious object of our contest shall be obtained." Therefore, "Shoulder Arms," stiffen the lips, inhale deeply the breath and vet ready to fight till the Negro right, Negro privileges, and Negro Liberty become the common heritage of mankind. Thank you. Hon. Editor of The Negro World, New York City, N. Y. Kim Shr. Please give me a space in your valuable weekly to congratulate our Rev. Dr. R. R. Porter. To Right Rev. Dr. R. R. Porter. Reverend One—Reading your comment on "Poverty" in The Negro World of June 15, 1829. I must hasten to congratulate you for choosing such a subject. The writer of this, having spent most of his young life "since school days" in the West Indies, has come in contact, say, with the poorest class of people on earth, both white and black, and finding them mostly ignorant and selfish, do appreciate your comment, and only beg that you write a little more on the forementioned subject. Dear Reverend, may I beg also that you define the part of Scripture that says, "It's easier for a camel to pass through a needles eye than a rich man to enter into Heaven." If that be the case, what chance has a poor man. To me, poorness is a crime, and I know that poverty has caused thousands of men imprisonment, death, and has led many to sin against the Holy Ghost. I have heard men deny Christ, deny their mothers, their wives etc., just through poverty, etc., just through poverty, etc., looking towards the sky and looking towards that milk and honey, stop believing that poverty is a blessing, for somewhere in Deuteronomy, 28th chapter, it is written that when one is blessed his storhouse shall be filled, his out runneth over, his field shall be prosperous, and in general he shall be rich in all things. Poverty, then, is vice versa. If in any way I am wrong, don't blame me, for I have all reasons to believe that poverty is a cause. Wishing it, I will and looking for your explanations, I remain. G. A. BROWN, A. U. L. Sir: Please give me a little space in your valuable paper to show my appreciation of one who has found his little corner and who is doing yoyoman service to the Negro race by his writings in *Ta Negro World*. I refer to Mr. J. A. Rogers, the well known writer, who is leaving no stone unturned in drawing the Negro's attention to the history of Africa's glorious sons of the past. Surely one who knows nothing of the Negro's history, will feel much pleasure and derive much benefit, after reading his articles. Keep it up. Sir Roger. Dig deep down into our past glories and let the world know of our glorious past, and what, we will be in the future. Surely you are doing well your part. Hoping you will not get weary in the fight for the cause Afric, I remain Pathway of Dreams I have tried . . . God! How I've tried!

Disputes Between Amendments If any of the citizens of the United States, or any person under their protection, shall have any disgust with each other, the Consul shall decide between the parties; and wherever the Consul shall regard any such disgust to enforce his decisions, it shall be immediately granted to him. XXII If a citizen of the United States should kill or wound a man, or on the contrary, the law of the country shall take place and equal justice shall be rendered, the Consul assisting at the trial; and if any delinquent shall make his escape, the Consul shall not be answerable for him in any manner whatever. In my opinion, this article was not leaked. The Consul should have been led to trust with accountability for the safety and delivering up of the culprit, as long as same was committed to his charge. In fact, this article should never have been allowed to enter into the agreement. If an American citizen shall die in our country, and no will shall appear, the Consul shall take possession of his effects; and if there shall be no Consul, the effects shall be deposited in the hands of some person worthy of trust, until the party shall appear who has a right to demand them; but if the heir to the person does not want to be delivered, to him without interruption; and if a will shall appear, the property shall descend agreeable to that will, as soon as the Consul shall declare the validity thereof. ARTICLE XXIII The Consuls of, the United States of America shall reside in any support of our dominions that they shall think proper, and they shall be respected and enjoy all the privileges which the Consuls of any other nation enjoy. And if any of the citizens of the United States shall contract any debts or engagements, the Consul shall not be in any manner accountable for them, unless he shall have given a promise in writing for the payment or fulfilling thereof, without, which prelates in writing no application to him for any redress shall be made. 1. the undersigned, the servant of God, Tather- Ben Abel-Kack Tennish, do certify that His Imperial Majesty, my Master (whom God preserves); having concluded a treaty of peace and commerce with the United States of America, has ordered me to complete it, and in addition to the tenth article, to declare that if any vessel belonging to the United States shall be in the port of His Majesty's Dominions, or within gunshot of His forts, she shall be protected as much as possible; and no vessel whatever belonging to Moorish or Xitan powers, with whom the United States may be at war, shall be permitted to follow or engage her, as we now deem the citizens of America our good friends.

Once more, in spite of the preachments of the Communist, and the hypocritical propaganda of the all-Russian United Soviet Republic: about the Equality of Races, and the Equality of National or Sovereign Status, the National Bear of Russia, true to the nature of the Beast shows its paws and its teeth, and no one from henceforth, will be missed by Russian propagandist concerning the Nationalism and freedom of the colored world! Sudden, as a thunderbolt from a clear sky, the Canadian Bear of Imperial Russia robed in the cloak of Bolshevism, swoops down upon China (as usual) in an attempt to gobble up the Chinese territory of Mongolia.

EPISODES A fat boy was playing the guitar on the corner of 134 St. A crowd collected. The musician garnered coins. Pretty soon a cruising police car drove up. The colored cop hopped off the running board and accosted the lad, a scowl on his features. "Get off this street . . . and stay off." He tightly grasped his night stick. The boy ran off. The cop walked back to his partner behind the wheel and made this remark: "He plays the hell out of that thing!" and grinned. They're human. ONE OF HARLEM'S FINEST grabbed a small feller by the collar. Some trivial offense. The officer drew back his hand and let fly. The intended victim ducked and bobbed up, looking unsmilingly into the cop's face. The blue-coat shot out his fast, again, and connected with nothing more solid than the air. He found himself looking into the serious features of the small man. The cop had enough: "Get to 'ell out o' heah!" he blustered. Tite things come in small packages. HAVE YOU HEARD About the girl that sent an envelope filled with snow to her mother in the West Indies? So she could see what it looked like. Across the Pond LEEDS, England, July 16.—The South African cricket team now touring England, has the third test match by three runs and five wickets. South Africa compiled 236 and 275 for an aggregate total of 511 runs. England replied with 326 and 186 for five wickets; aggregate 514. England so far has drawn 2 and won 1. Two more is to be played. The third test match was a tense struggle between the two teams. Apparently in a hopeless position, through H. G. Owen Smith's 129 today South Africa made a fine bid for victory or a draw. At lunch time things looked serious for England. Two of her best batsmen, Sutcliffe and Hammond were disposed of. Sutcliffe 4, Hammond 0. England was still 163 runs behind. The middle section of the team played steadily and pulled the game round. The veteran Woolley who was top-scorer in the first innings, stepped into the Two men were hikitin for supremacy. A crowd collected. Victory hung in the balance. They feasted and countered. Rapturious applause followed each move. Both displayed five strategy. Excitement prevailed. Gripping suspense. Missed heartbeat, and all that sort of thing. One opponent made a masterful play "The tide of battle swung in his favor. His adherents were slated. His opponent helpless. With a grand sweep of his mighty right hand the master administered the "coupe de grace." The tenseness of the crowd was broken. They argued among themselves.

After a lapse of years, Gleaners are again making a strong bid for the premier cricket honors of the city. With the cessation of Sunday cricket in the Cosmopolitan League, the old time stage of Gleaners are now assisting the club to uphold its tradition. Back in the fold they come: Ken. Spencer, A. Gittens, H. Deare, G. Springer, A. "Kid" Lewis, D. Lewis, Tim Forde and a host of others, present an alignment that can hold at bay any club in the country. A match is pending-with the Visiting Bermudian cricket team that will be in our midst on the fifth of next month. This will be a game worth going miles to see. Keep it in mind. Gleaners today drew with St. Vincent owing to the fact that Gleaners' beat bowling was absent; arriving too late on the scene. St. Vincent was allowed to score 131 runs. B. Sutherland batted nicely for 63. E. Poyer, 20 out-out. On Gleaners turn at bat, Time alone prevented them from placing on the boards a staggering total. They were rarin' to go. The first two batsmen. H. Deare and D. Lewis accounted for 78 runs before they were parted. Five other men of like strength came in and practically gave away their play; endeavoring to beat Time. The match ended, in a draw. Gleaners 116 for the loss of 6 wickets. H. Deare 45, D. Lewis 44, D. McClean proved to be St. Vincent's best bet with the ball. BERMUDA HAD AN EASY TIME WITH ATHENS today. Athens is a pretty "tite" club but Bermuda took them in their usual cool way. Bermuda's bowling is not all that it should be; rather weak, but their batting makes up for the deficiency. Athens thought they were well off with 128 runs. E. Hollar 24 not-out, A. Scaly 20, D. Lindo 20. Bermuda knocked the score off with two men. E. Robinson 71, W. Paynter 60, E. Paynter 25, 9 wickets fell for 105 runs; highest score of the day. ST. KITTS TOO MUCH FOR GRENADA. St. Kitts had a field day of it against the weak Grenada C. C. to the delight of its-meny followers; led by the irrepressible Tuckett. St. Kitts amassed 180 runs for the loss of 5 wickets. E. H. Margetson 39, N. Yearwood 35, A. Thomas 34, R. Yearwood 30 not-out, A. Richardson 19. Grenada responded with 76. McWilliams 31 and Baldwin 17 being the principa-scorers. MONTSERRAT and ANTIGUA battled to a draw. Montserrat 167 runs. Shoyan a dHubbard being responsible for some 80 odd. LEST YOU FORGET. There is a lunch room right opposite the grounds. Prices are the same, as downtown. Give her a play! United C.C. Humbles Trinidad—Mowed Down For 37 Runs VAN CORTLAND PARK Saturday, July 20.—The strong United C. C. recovering from the lathering administered by the West Indian C. C. last Saturday, tumbled the Trinidad aggregation, from first place in the Cosmopolitan League. Sussex, last year's champions; automatically moves up into the honored position, leading by two points. United, batting first compiled 151 runs, of which O. Layne contributed 38, R. Griffith 34, Bignall 26, Herb. Nichols 16. On Trinidad's turn at bat, Roy Holder (brother of Ed.) uprooted them in short order. He obtained 7 W. for 18 runs. Nico work. With darkness fast, approaching, about three minutes to play, O. Griffith made a beautiful one hand catch, flat, on his stomach, at square leg. This retired the side. SURREY FIELD and BRITISH GUINA played to an exciting finish. The last B. G. batman inadvertently stroked the ball on his wicket. This was another battle against tine. Surrey won. Surrey took the wicket first. They amassed 41 for the loss of 7 W. H. Deare 42, D. Forde 30. B. G. was all out for 40. Top score, C. Basant 17-L. B. W. to young Burnett. A. Gittens got most of the wickets. Eddie Tolan of Michigan, dark hued national sprint champion, embarked on the S.S. Olympic, bound for Europe last Friday. Fred Sturdy of Yale, the national pole vault champion; Leo Sexton of Georgetown, all-around star; Leo Lermond of the Boston A. A. national mile-champion, and Dick Rockaway of Ohio State, who recently smashed the world's low hurdle mark, sailed on the S.S. President Rösselvett last Thursday. They will compete in a series of track and field meets in Hamburg, Cologne, Berlin, Stockholm; Oslo, Helsingfors and perhaps, London. The trip is being sponsored by the Stockholm newspaper, Gote. Idrotts-forening, and the Swedish Daily News of New York. Stockholm will be the main stop-on the tour. ACROSS THE LINE The 'Montreal West' Indians had a decisive victory over Verdun in a Canadian-League fixture played Saturday, July 6th by scoring 155 against their opponents 34. Soft- or what, Ed? Holder was top score for W. I with 62. Dillon Burnett got most of Verdun's wickets. W. I. is in a good place, having lost to McGill University, the leader. A GOOD FIGHT CRAMPED Well boy, I motored out to Ebba's field last Wednesday evening; of should I say I submerged and shut through the hole. Anyway I get to my destination feeling rather stuffy. Something seemed to have whispered in my sound receiver that the night would not be so exciting. Of course the card appeared to be a lively one on paper. There was a new talented heavyweight to make his bow to the American and other boxing fans of various parts. The daily papers told us how big and strong he was, who he had beaten and knocked bow-legged. On the other side. All this hot stuff created a deal of interest. Glancing around the field and seeing the great throng assembled therein was proof enough. I cannot portray every bout, because some of them should be, and have been forgotten by me; and I do not care to refresh my memory. So I will start with the Dave King—Roy Wallace bout. This was a six round affair. I might say that Roy King is one of our boys from Harlem. Wallace is a white boy from Indianapolis. Well I have to admit that: Wallace gave King a boxing lesson. Dave could not get to him at all; he being too small and his reach too short. I do not think that Dave's manager should have accepted this bout at all. Of my boys surely must need beans in a bad way, but why fight for beans when the next day you can only take soup. Now for the low down on the Leo Williams-Jack Roper hout. "Description" Leo Williams, one of our boys, now residing in Harlem. Roper is a white gentleman from Mississippi. If you please, who weighed twenty-two pounds more than Leo. Talk about a clown for looks, this bird Roper made some faces that would scare Wringling Brothers head Comic Man, but, Williams was evidently not out for an evening's amusement, so he went to work on this big piece of beef and chopped and chopped until he had him down if a small steak. Williams won nine of the ten rounds. Young Pop or Roper, as they call him made a savage attack in the tenth round, as he knew that the only thing to save Leo from receiving the referees duke would be a knockout or a near knockout. So, he started the tenth by rushing and swinging and caught Williams with a wild left, that sent Leo hanging over the ropes. It was not necessary to start a count for Leo wriggled out of it and kept stepping around, when the bell rang ending the bout, they were both standing, in the center of the ring, posing. I was a surprised Him when they gave the decision to Roper, for he only had won one round, and that was the last as I stated before. Now they were clearing the decks for the Campo-po De Kuh attractions, which everyone was anxiously awaiting. Campo-po reached the ring, first, wearing a brown bath robe that I wetland call a ground sweeper. It was so long. Talk about big men, this Vittorio Glove filinger, sure is the Golfath of the ring, and when he soaks, you stay soaked. All that is necessary to worry about is sheas. Al Singer, of the Brown, and Lea Routis, of France, who by the age is the fethwright weight champion, solden takes a right of the fethwright weight poundage, suddenly, he must have his crown stipped away in some Monlin Rouge in Paris. My, my, if one of Campo's blows was stung at me, say within five inches of my chin, the results from fear, and the storm from the passing thunderbolt, would surely stop my continuing on this planet. Any way, they top an all-star attraction Wednesday evening, July 24 at Ebbets Field. Stanley Loayza and Vic. Mendell will be seen in the semifinal. We boys in Harlem know Loayza well; he has fought quite a number of good race boys, such as Bruce Flowers and others. Stanley always gives the boys a good run for their money. So it is very likely there will be quite a large crowd on hand. Now, say to have been on the receiving end of such powerful punching as DeKuh was, I am not alarmed at the abrupt ending caused by this DeKuh fellows continuously fouling. They say that Arthur cannot take it. I am now convinced that he can't stand up under heavy fire. There was certain to be a knockout in this bout; and I do not think Campo would of been the one in the down fall. DeKuh sensing this took the short road by landing below the belt line, and, standing disqualified in the third round, and saving the short enders their dough. THE RIGHT IDEA Word comes to me from the Signor's camp that he has booked Kid Chocolate, Cuba's sensational colored featherweight to fight Bud Taylor at Ebbets Field on August 14th. This should turn out to be one of the best cards during the month of August. Everybody that went to see the best man win was grossly disgusted with this ending; for they did not have an opportunity to get a good line on Camble. Mr. Humbert Fugary, and Jess McMahon, who is associated with him, seems to be playing them right. Give us more mixed bouts at Ebbaes Field. The colored prize fighters must be given a break. I am only with the promoters who are fair and square. There area lot of good race boys that are forced to remain idle. I ask the question _why_ should it be so? Sport should know no race, creed or color, as a man is a man, and I denounce any promoter that takes a stand built upon race-prefjudice. The boxing game is too big for such small men, so it is better they drop out. I received word from Louis Gutterrez, manager of Kid Chocolate, saying that the Kid has been booked for three bouts in Chicago. These bouts will be staged between now and September. He is to receive $60,000, for the three an average of $20,000 per bout. This sounds very good. Too bad the New York promoters let this outstanding flash get away from them. The attention promoters in New York are giving to the heavy-weight division without bringing in Godfrey, will not amount to very much. I personally admire such a man as Mr. Fuggy. I had the pleasure of meeting him during the preparations for the Wills-Welinheart bout, that took place at the Polo Grounds for the Italian Hospital fund, some time back. I went down to his office to get some dope. "Although there was a crowd of folks around, including Harry Wills, this did not prevent him from receiving me with courtesy. After giving me the low down he invited me to join a party he was taking to lunch. I having just had lunch, had to decline. I simply quote this to disclose to you the kind of man he is. I will always wish him the host, of luck as a promoter. Even Al Brown has to look for work outside of New York. Al is an attraction, why not stage him. He is a real fighting champion. Since he won the title he has engaged in three fights, winning all three. His last victim was Vernon Cornier, whom he knocked out in the fourth round of a scheduled eight rounder. This took place in Portland, Maine, on July 17th. Fugazy Gives Orders Humbart J. Fugary, promoter at Ebbets Field, has instructed his matchmaker, Jess McMahon, to scout every corner of the world in an effort to give every likely looking prospect an opportunity to gel in the scramble for the seventh place of honor on the Muldoon-Thunney championship statue. Fugary and Jess McMahon have set up a cozy cooling system patterned after the one used by the baseball moguls, except that the boxing plains will be world wide. All Colored Fighters are requested to forward their photographs along with their fighting names, weights and record. To Harold G. Saltus, Sports Editor. The idea was born with Fugazy when he discovered Roberto Roberti Ricardo Bortagallo, who has yet to show his apuition, another importation. Phil Scott, England's outstanding prospect, is on the high seas and will get in on the Fugazy-McMahon elimination series. WASHINGTON, D. C., June 24- Scoring 15 points more than its usual competitor, the 24th Infantry small bore rifle team knocked out a clean-cut victory in the National regimental small bore championship match recently staged at various posts throughout the United States. Note: -Say, Mr. McMahon, when you start recruiting do not forget George Godfrey. In fact I think that Godfrey should be your ace to lead off with, because the one that could get by him, will be the find. Go about this business in a square, aportmanhip like way. You cannot lose. The 24th won its match in competition with twenty other teams which represented each Corps Area. Each team fired the match on its own range and the targets were then sent to Washington, D. C., for scoring. The three high teams and their scores were: 24th Infantry, 3,582 (out of a possible score of 5,000); 121st Engineers of Washington, D. C., 3,567; and the 7th Infantry; Vancouver Barricks, Washington, 3,540.

Their route had to. BJ. A. BOGERS Alexander Dumas fil. last of the great Dumas, was the foremost French dramatist of the nineteenth century, and one of the most original thinkers of all time. To him, perhaps, more than any other writer who ever lived, belongs the honor of belonging-realism to the stage. With his genius he completely changed the course of the French theatre, turning it away from empty romance and sounding phrase to life, to serious thought and purpose. Dumas unvarying theme was love, and he ranks as one of the greatest analysts of that passion. No secret of the love life was hidden from him. Like a deep-sea diver he explored the recourses of the human heart and held up what he found, to the gaze of the world. Great Sorrow Dumas' early life was marred, by a great sorrow, and this, acting on a keenly sensitive nature, did more than anything else to influence his career. Life has many mysterious ways of accomplishing ends. When it has some great destiny in store for us, it usually awakens us by wounding us, sometimes, very deeply. And yet Dumas' sorrow was one that is regarded as ordinary by millions of individuals: He was illegitimate. His father, the great novelist, had begotten him by an humble dressmaker named Marie Labay. At the time, the older Dumas was hardy-out of his teens, and was earning less than five dollars a week. At boarding school, the boys cruelly taunted the shy and intensely wrest Alexander about his birth. Perhaps that was their revenge for the fact that he so far out-shone the cleverest of them. But whatever it was, the torment caused him to reflect on love and marriage—until he stood without a peer as a writer on both. At the age of nine, his father, who was then winning—considerable success as a drastinian, gave him his name and took him under his care. But the wound never healed—happily for humanity. The elder Dumas took the boy into the best salons of the day, where he astonished the glide with his vivacity, his wit, penetration, and originality. He took him also on his tours through Europe and North Africa. Brilliant Killer With his father earning so much wealth, young Duman became a brilliant idol. Then an incident happened that threw him into literature. One morning he awoke to find himself penniless. His creditors, descending on him, had soiled everything he had. He owed ten thousand dollars—a great sum in those days. His father, spending two or three times his earnings, was in practically the same position, too. Young Duman's debut into literature is heat told in his own words: "I found myself one day," he said, "bitting sadly on a cane-scented chair. Sqoore a white wooden table in a miserably furnished room of the hotel where I had taken refuge. I had Oriental Luck bag Only 49c The good unlucky in money, something and love?

A man writing on a desk. "I decided to become an author and started to write." been driven out of my elegant apart- "Never would I play such rot." Lement with everything selected and cont lived to regret this, sold." These scenes in London once when they sired in a magnificent performance on June 14, 1864, picture of the birthday of the Mita Prize of Wien. Began as a Writer "I gave myself up to bitter reflection and mechanically I opened the drawer of the table. Inside were some glammed papers and a pad of writing paper evidently forgotten there by the last occupant. I took out the pad, and as I had no occupation and did not know what else to do, decided to become an Author, and started to write." And he wrote until he became the foremost writer of his time—wrote until he had won an immense fortune. Success. However, did not come with a rush. Indeed, time and again he throw down his manuscripts resolved never to touch them again. His next work, "The Sins of his Youth," won more success. He and his father had jasted together deeply of life in the underworld of Posa. The book was largely a recital of incidents in his own life. Camille, Hls Masterpiece This was followed by his masterpiece, "Canille." As a novel, it went well, but as a play—its most effective form—the difficulties with it seemed ludicrous. "The story of how this novel was turned into a play is interesting. Again it is a question of money. One day Dumas found himself peniless in Marsilles. The idea came to him to turn the book into a play, and he sat down and with a single spurt dashed off the first three acts "without an erasure." Returning to Paris, he finished the rest in five days. Finally, a theatre accepted it. But when all was ready, the censors stepped in and barred it. Through the influence of a friend, he triumphed over the censors, then, the theatre failed, followed soon after by the death of his leading lady. Nogt he tried to interest Lecont, leading actor of the day. But the latter returned the manuscript a few days later greasy and smelling of tobacco with the haughty comment: Dumas, heart-broken, threw the manuscript in the bottom of an old drawer, feeling sure that it would never be played. But destiny was yet to have its dying. One day, months later, Dumas was walking on the boulevards when he apied an old friend, who invited him to have a drink. While sitting on the terrace, the actor, Boufe, happening to pass, apied Dumas and came to speak to him. The conversation turned on the rejected play, and Boufe, saying that he would soon take Leconte's place, promised to do what he could. But Boufe seemed to forget all about his promise. Months passed. Then the theatre at which he played was about to fail for lack of a good play. He 'thought of Dumas, and mentioned his play. The manager, rather doubtful, finally agreed to try it, and after other difficulties it was finally presented. Success—at Last Its success was instantaneous, and it was solid, too, for "Cantile" has held the stage until this day. Some of the most noted entertainers have played it, among them being Sarah Bernhardt and Dusiele. "Cantile" is also one of the formers of the operas. It has been adapted for the cinema, the late Rudolf Valentine, playing, the part of Armand Duval. From this time on Dumas was famous. His father, too, had taken to novel writing, and was earning millions. Both stood on the top of the literary world. Each loved the other tenderly and yet, in two men could be less alike in disposition. The older Dumas was gay, jolly, always in good humor; an expansive, easy-going and caudal soul in an immortalized. Street Mortisil The younger was reserved and inclined to haughtiness, a stern moralist, an apache of duty. He believed that his mission was to reform mankind and lead it into the path of right doing. Most of all, he believed in fidelity to the marriage vow, and insisted that the husband had a right to punish with his own hand the man who took his wife. it wonderful tales: the other lashed it for its sins and called it to repentance. Text by BEN DAVIS, JR. Drawn by A.W. RENN GARBE Thereafter last supperally gave special performance by King Miles VI and the royal staff of England at Bristolhampton Hall. The father said of his son: "Alexander loves, preaching over much." The son said of the father: "My father is a big child that I had when I was very little." Later when the older had squandered the greatest fortune ever earned by any writer, the younger cared for him as a mother. Scorching Wit The younger was also witty, but his wit was of a different kind. That of the father made the people laugh; that of the son scorched them. Unlucky, indeed, we. The one who ran up against young Dumas. It was like striking a buzz-saw with the naked hand. One day while in a noted club a flippant young count, proud of his ancestry, thought to have some fun with young Dumas. "Monsleur Dumas," he began. "I understand your father is a quadroon?" "Yes," replied Dumas. "And your grandfather was a mulatto?" "Yes." "And your great-grandfather was a Negro?" "Yes." "Good," laughed the count. "Will you tell what was your great-great-grandfather, then M. Dumas?" "SH," was the acid reply. "He was your ancestry began, where your ends." Original His plays are filled with biling observations. The following are examples: "A woman's past is like a coal mine; do not go into it with a light or there'll be an explosion." "She is one of those women who spend their lives in lining with soft padding; the ditch into which they intend their virtues shall fall, and who, furious at waiting on the edge for someone to push them in, throw stones at other women who pass." "One can always live with a wife, provided he has something else to occupy his time." "She had spread all those diamonds, over her mother who accompanied her and who resembled the constellation of the Great Bear, not One of the prettiest women I ever saw was the most unpleasant to look at. Nature had gives her wonderful eyes, and features that were very beautiful, but in spite of all this I remember her only with a wave of disgust. Her teeth ruined all her good looks. Bad teeth, or dirty teeth will do this for any girl or woman, and the most honeysuckle man loses his good looks when his mouth shows a row of broken, dirty nails for teeth. Very few people give the tooth the cure they should. They do-not visit the dentist as they should, because they fear the pain they expect him to cause them. So they let the months go by; after a while a tiny break comes in the tooth, it spreads and grows into a hole. After a while a shell break off, leaving a decaying root, and then the dentist has to dig to get it. Of course it hurts, but if that thyroid had been given attention at the start there would have been no pain, and the tooth would have been saved. Many a sufferer from persistent headaches has been cured by the dentist. Severe cases of stomach trouble are constantly being cured, not by tinking medicine, but by having old and decaying teeth removed. A skillful dentist rarely causes the patient much pain. Modern methods have made it possible for him to remove teeth quickly, and without much pain. It is only the patient who has failed to care for the teeth who really suffers. If you have delayed and have let your teeth break off into the gums, only in brilliance, but in form.4 Dumas, the younger, won higher literary honors than his father, and in certain learned circles is regarded as the abler man. As a thinker, he was certainly the profounder of the two. Evidently the French Academy thought so, too, for the younger was elected to that body by twenty votes against eleven. The elder Dumas had striven hard to be one of the Forty Immortals and the failure had hurt him deeply. In his opening address to the Academy, the younger, Dumas took the assembled savants severely to task for their failure to recognize his father. In after life the brilliance of the son quite overshadowed that of the father—a fact that pained the son and brought forth one of the most eloquent bits from his pen. Here, in part, is an imperfect translation of it by this writer: "It was under the sun of Africa of African blood, born of a Negro virgin, that was formed the one from whom thou wert to be born—the one who as soldier of the Republic stifed a horse between his knees; broke an iron helmet with his teeth; and defended alone the bridge of Briken against a vanguard of twenty men—"Rome would have borne him in triumph and made him a consul. France, calmer and more economical, refused education to his son, and this son, reared in the forest, under the open sky, driven by need and the force of his genius, invaded one day the great city and strife into the field of literature as his father strove into the field of battle overturning all who did not make way for him. Tolls of Father "Then commenced the cyclopena task that lasted forty years. Tragedy, history, travel, romance, thou hast thrown them all out from the vast alchemic of thy brain; thou hast peopled the whole world of fiction with new creations. Thou hast caused to crack with the volume of thy work the newspaper, the book, the theatre, all of which have been too narrow for thy powerful shoulders. Thou has enriched France, Europe, America, the world. Thou hast enriched the publishers, the translators, the plagiarists. Thou hast made them millionaires, while for thyself thou hast left nothing." you should go about getting them cleaned up at once. Delay will not help you, and may lead to serious trouble. Besides draining poison into the system and ruining the skin—making it pliable and score—there are many other serious results from such teeth. Many cases of cancer of the mouth have been known to result from old stubs of teeth. Care of the teeth and gums is neither expensive nor time-taking. One of the best dentifrices or tooth powders is ordinary powdered table salt. Sprinkle over the tooth brush, and use cleaning and evening. Salt is not only good for the teeth, but also for the gums, acting as a cleaner, a whitener, and a germicide. It is a stimulant, and is not distasteful. The cost, of course, is practically nothing, as a ten-cent package will last a whole family for months. Toothache is caused by ap exposed nerve, and if a cavity lenght enough estate, this should be pacified with cotton saturated with oil of salt. Be careful not to swallow any of the oil, which is poisonous. Pack the cavity carefully, and then go to a good dentist for a dilling or extraction. Remember this: A toothache means your tooth needs attention immediately, and putting off it, visit to your dentist means more trouble later. Acting now may save you from stomach trouble, cancer of the gums, or jaw, and countless hours of suffering. Good teeth mean more chance for good health, and are one of the most important beauty aids you can have. $500 If I Fail to Grow Hair $500 If I Fail to Grow Hair HAIR ROOT HAIR GROW- ER is possessed by a natural Nature's way of healing hair by the medical procedure and barters and hardware.

Registered Trademark Principals and Agents According to ecclesiastical dictum we are made to understand that the atmosphere took precedent to the earth in the magnificent work of creation. It is said that the Creator termed it heaven. The firmamently sky, air, vapour are other well known phraseology. Nature never wasted energy and this vast amount of space is ever unfolding its secret of usefulness to humanity as knowledge increases. The aeronaut has, to a great extent, defied the established law of gravitation and navigated his machine successfully through space. Wireless telegraphy, has drawn countries, people and languages much nearer for inter-relationship through the utilizing of the transmissibility of the aerial zone. And there is nothing new under the sun. From whence came the voice which challenged Joil concerning the singing of the morning stars and the shouting of the sone of God? Some have told us that these reside in the second heaven. Our curiosity pulsates vehemently, metaphorically speaking, when we read the account of the apostle of the Gentile being caught up to the three heavens when he heard words not possible to be reiterated. All these regions are supposed to be enveloped by atmosphere. We have ventured far enough and time and space must be limited to our own immediate surroundings. It might be interesting to relate that it was the land of Hann, in the country of Egypt and the city of Alexandria that the first impetus was given for the study of the atmosphere. It consists principally of one-fifth part of oxygen and nearly four-fifth part of nitrogen, carbon acid, watery vapour, and argon a new element discovered as late as 1854. Our letter this week is from Cape Charles, Va. The young lady is nineteen and asks many questions about love: Dear Mrs. Jerome: I have been in love with a boy for three years, who says that he loves me, but he never comes to my house like he should. And when he comes it is usually at night. Now, don't you think if he loved me in the right way he would come more in the day time? 1. Is it proper for a girl to ask a boy why he hasn't been to see her? 2. If a boy loves a girl won't he try to see her as much as he can? 3. Is it proper for a girl and a boy of 16 and 17 to play together, if they are in love? 4. Is it proper to chew gum? 5. What must a girl say if she is told she is good-looking? 6. What must a girl say if a boy tells her that he loves her? 7. Should she tell a boy about dreaming of him? 8. How can a girl tell when a boy loved her? 9. What can she do to make a boy love her? My dear, make yourself and your home attractive and your boy friend will find it more inviting. Perhaps it is already attractive, and the just doesn't know a good thing when he sees it. In that case, get another boy friend. Don't stop looking for new conquests at your age. Night calls are as proper as day calls. Answers to the above questions: 1. Ask him in a fewial way, but don't accuse him of neglect. 2. He will unless he is the very timid one, then he has to be encouraged. 3. Yes, there should be more play and less seriousness in love, any way. 4. It is all right for young people on outings to chew gum, but don't do it on the street or in the theatre, or when making a formal call. 5. Just say "thank you," simply and modestly. We are subjected to the influence of atmospheric pressure to the extent of fifteen pounds on every square inch on the surface of the body at sea level. The higher one ascends the lesser the tension. Above ten thousand feet the rarity of the atmosphere is noticeable in quickened breathing and pulse rate. Beyond a distance of about eight miles mortality cannot pass. Death will be the consequence for his bound is set. The oxygen sustains animal life and supports combustion. While the nitrogen cannot sustain life it is an important constituent of air animal and vegetable tissues. Plants such as pea, beans, lentils are capable of extracting nitrogen from the air, storing it up by the roots and returning it to the soil as manure. This should be remembered in our agricultural pursuits. The purity of the atmosphere depends upon surrounding influences. The study of meteorology begins the study of climatology. The healthy individual is capable of enduring any clime at least for a certain period without very much inconveniences. With the failure of health, however, a suitable environment is rather a necessity for comfort. The aged, the delicate, the gouty and the rheumatic individuals should avoid areas that are cold; perspiration is checked and the joint trouble is aggravated. Warm, moist air is unsuitable for those with intestinal troubles. A high altitude is very good for children and young people. The circulation, and respiration are quickened. They usually put on weight. Sufferers from tuberculosis which is not rapid and advancing, and neurasthenics may also receive much benefit there. Those with heart diseases are better off at sea level. Children with enlarged lymph glands and diseased bones are better off at the sea shore. Asthmatics may well seek refuge in smoky localities, and Tor those with bad kidneys a warm dry climate is very good. It is the firm belief of investigators that the atmosphere still holds vast sources of wealth and knowledge. Who among the descendants of Ham will investigate and bring renown to himself and his race must meet the approbation of his Maker? Will you? My task is done. J. R. W. 6. Say that you appreciate the honor of being loved, but usually an understanding glance, or a pressure of the hand says more than words. 7. If you are fast friends, yes; otherwise, don't. 8. By his actions, rather than his words. Does he seem to prefer you to others? Is he thoughtful? Those are the best tests of love. 9. Be nice to look at and nice to be with. But, my dear, all the etiquette in the world won't make a woman alluring. Personality, not perfection, wins love. And personality is simply intelligence; understanding, sweetness, energy and daring. Good looks, of course, are a great aid, but they are not absolutely necessary. However, they look good best. So write many of our customers who have found dead in our stores.

DH-2453 Lincoln Ave, Chicago, IL Sexta convenelion internacional el mayor de los conclaves en la historia de la raza negra. Delegados de multiples organizaciones de la raza lista para la apertura de la gram reunión. Augurios de un gran éxito. Participación de las divisiones de nuestra organización. Nos hallamos actualmente en vfsperas de la celebración de una magna reunión, donde nuestro elemento discutirá de una manera solemne los multiples problemas que como raza le afectan directamente; así como también el hallar los medios para resolver los mismos apropiadamente. Las miras del mundo entero se volverán hacia esta convención internacional de los pueblos negros, la cual tendrá lugar en la ciudad de Kingston, isla de Jamaica, del primero al último de agosto del presente año. Este movimiento te llevará a efecto con cómo una construembre de reunimos anualmente para cambiar de impresiones, sino que nos congregaremos porque la hora ha llegado en que tenemos que actuar con uniformidad de pensamiento y acción como único recurso o método por el cual nuestra raza pueda ser salvada, protejida y respetada. No hay razón por la cual toda organización de la raza no esté debidamente representada. Los que arduamente laboran en las oficinas generales, para que la convención sea un éxito, abrigan la esperanza de que nuestro pueblo obtenga en este gran conclave su verdadera representación. Los delegados a la convención procedentes de Africa, de las dos América's y de las Antillas, encontrarán que su tiempo y su dinero no ha sido perdido asistiendo a dicha reunión, porque esta les renumerará en su valor social, económico y político, y en general les reembolsará con el conocimiento práctico que obtengan de nuestros problemas como pueblo parte integrante de la humanidad. Apesar de todo lo que se haya dicho y hecho en contra, hay que dar crédito a que los negros del mundo tengan la determinación de marchar hacia adelante, bajo la dirección que les haga sentirse como una entidad y como parte en el todo político del universo. La Asociación. Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra no podrá ser destruida, porque sus objetivos abarcán los principios y espíritu de una raza que anhela enaltecimiento. Declaramos para conocimiento general que todo el sistema antiguo de dirección ha fallecido; no le resucitaremos, no le daremos vida. Por esto damos a entender en lo que a sistema de dirección respecta, aquella manera de dirigir, que ha sido egoista, viciosa, desleal y sobretodo ignorante. Esta clase de dirección tan perjudicial a nuestro movimiento y por ende a las, masas de nuestro pueblo, tendrá muy poco o ningun acceso en la próxima reunión magna de la raza negra. Las rudas pruebas a que fuimos sometidos en el pasado, no han sido sino lecciones que nos dan la experiencia para mejor guiar y servir a las masas de nuestro pueblo y a la organización. Agunos de nuestros directores en el pasado quienes se creyeron muy listos, robando y explorando a la organización; cavaron su propia fosa para no surgir mas. Sin embargo, esos hechos pertenecen a un pasado que no vale la pena recordar. Nuestra organizción y sus principios no pereceran; ellos vivirán por siempre y para siempre. Aquellos que en su carácter de oficiales o miembros de nuestra organización que se enlistaron en la misma con el objeto de robar a sus semejantes y creyeron que sus artíminas no serían descubiertas, han sufrido un golpe fatal toda vez que los conocemos y estamos dispuestos a detener su obra maléfica a toda costa. Conceptuíamos un deber nuestro alentar al elemento negro universalmente, para que se creen nuevos brios pues hemos de escribir un nuevo capítulo en la historia de la raza negra en esta convención que se avecina. Será ello una recapitulación del nuevo progreso, las nuevas esperanzas, nuevas aspiraciones, nueva prosperidad. No desmayemos por lo tanto en dar todo nuéstro apoyo en el sentido de hacer la convención del presente año el mayor de todos nuestros exitos. Hemos de recordar a todos los ramales, divisiones, capígulos y miembros de esta organización, que el pago de cuotas debe ser estrictamente observado, para ser acreedor a los privilegios del nuevo movimiento. De otro modo no tendrán vez ni veto en la sanción de los diversos asuntos que hayan de sofmetarse al criterio de la convención. "KNOWLEDGE IS POWER" Why not learn to speak 'FANTI-GOLD COAST?'

Considero oportuno el dejar impreso en la mente de nuestro pueblo la gravedad de la situación actual, sin dar intenso enfasis a ello porque nuestro futuro dependerá de nosotros mismos, en la manera en que correctamente juxtuemos el pregente estado de cosas. Es casi sacrilego, de fines no cristianos y sin providencia alguna el intensificar le cuestion de diferencias de razas, cuando todos según se mos ha enseñado hemos sido hechura, de jun mismo Dios; siendo este el constituyente de todos los hombres que habitan la tierra. En vista de los hechos en que el hombre se ha convertido en un animal cruel y vil, no nos resta otra cosa sino, ser simplemente fraudes en muestras expresiones cuando habíamos de muestro grupo en particular, porque los designios malvolos de aquellos, los han corrompido la moral de muestra raza, han traido a nosotros, la duda y por consiguiente el que muestras relaciones con Dios sean también dudas como, hiljos del mismo por las circunstancias ya descrijas; por las inminias cometidas con nosotros, selos también cristianos. есiones de la raza blanca han llegado a ser tan viciosas y destructoras en su actitud hacia la raza negra, que nosotros nos venis en la obligación de exponerlos a la vindicta pública y al mismo tiempo advertimos a nuestro pueblo que sen más cauteloso en cuidarse de tales elementos. Existe un designio, un deseo cicloso y maligno para destruir nuestra raza. Este designio ha sido sostenido por el contínente americano, donde les cignificos y hombres de estado se han unido en un solo sentimiento y actividad, para arrancar del hombre negro y de las rasas de color aquellos territorios y aquellas oportunidades, a los altos tienen derecho por precepto divino y humano desde que el mundo fue mundo. Para encumalarse de estas propiedades que no son suyas, ellos están determinados a exterminarmos por todos-los medios posibles. Han calculado ya gados los medios imaginables para poner en practica nuestro aniquilamiento, y he aquí que no se nos deja espacio para respirar, para organizarnos ni para cualquier otro escliziero que hagamos con el objeto de extrincarnos y salir ileos, de los pímes, y tretas que se ponen en practica para destruirnos. Estamos, por lo tanto a la vuelta del camino en donde debígimos aguilar todas nuestras fuerzas, presentar batalla de astucia y salvar a nuestro pueblo. prolifica el odio il le vengaura; cita prolifica el niño lamentar. Tanto el hombre blanco de muestre liberal elo es considerado un deber; para el blanco victorio e irreconciliable es un asalto a sus preerrogativas; porque se cree ser, solamente la persona que Dios ha creado para dominar el mundo. Agsar de lo que este piense, el hecho queda pro- lado que Dios nos crea a todos de la misma materia. y nos dio' un mundo común a todos donde teuen derecho por igual. Moramente nosopteros, sostenemos el derecho que tiene el hombre blanco en Europa y el hombre amarillo en Asia y lachteremos por un Africano para los africanos. Si ello significa vida o muerte, nosotros lucharemos hasta el final de la contienda, lucharemos tenazmente, nolemente por el derecho que cabe al hombre negro al predominio del continente africano. Pondríamos en luces uso tólas las armas intellectuales del juicio y la razon, en la erencia de que luchando inteligente impfusiones al mundo de lo noble de muestra cansa y ese mismo mundo nos escollaría y nos ha de hacer justicia. No habremos de recurrir a las armas que utiliza el hombre blanco para resolver todos sus conflictos; pero si acendirenos a todas las fuerzas de la razon.

Los senadores democratas felicitarou calurosamente al señor Roxas por su admirable defensa de losislas Filipinas, a las que representaal frente de una conjisión especialque vino a Washington para conjugir la propuesta medida de imponer impuestos arancelarios a algunosproductos del archipelago, talesconto, accites vegetales, azúcar yotros. Es mi firme creencia, declaro el señor Roxas, que sólo disfrutado de completa independencia—polrengos modelar nuestros destinos. Nos esta una idea que se nueve arrastra por impulses ignorados, sino un sentimiento que se desarrolla a la sombra de deliberadas y cautelosas meditaciones.

Mi padre fue una victoria la tiranía de España y yo era un huertano cuando naci. Deseo decirles señor presidente y señores senadores de este conite, al congreso americano y al pueblo, de los Estados Unidos, que los filipinos desean ser libres para dirigir sus propios destinos, y permitanes que desmienta a aquellos que dicen que los filipinos abandonan alginia día la idea de completa independencia. Si el congreso desea ayar a las Filipinas, que permitita que se lleve a cabo un plebiscito y si el noventa por ciento de los noantes no substiñibles lo que digo ahora, nunca más volvera a habilar de independenta. El Señor Rosas pidió después la continución de una política libre-cambistba con las islas, si los Estados Unidos desgan continuar, considerándolas como una dependencia nacional, afirmando que no son las Filipinas las que más se benefician con sujejante política, sino los Estados Unidos, ya que la hacia allí envian sus productos con entera libertad y sin que encuentren contenencia desfavorable.

A school offering course in the science of manufacturing cosmetics is to be opened in Detroit by Madam Holbrook. Mrs. Holbrook has had the rare privilege of being a student and assistant to Mme. Dubignan, the celebrated French cosmetologist and scientist, known all over the world for her knowledge of manufacturing high-class toilet articles. The courses offered by the school will include every phase of cosmetology. The school will be known as the Holbrook Institute of Chemical Science. Graduates of this school will not find it necessary to operate under any particular system, but will be able to manufacture their own cosmetics for shop use, and may offer them for sale to the patrons under the trade name of their own shop. Mine. Holbrook has for the past eighteen years hended the "No-Brake" System of Beauty Culture, with active operators throughout the South and Middle West. It might be stated that the secrets of the famous "No-Brake" preparations will be included in the courses mentioned above. Mine. Holbrook maintained her headquarters and school at 406 Hunter street, Atlanta, Ga., for a number of years, and has hundreds of graduates throughout the country who will journey to Detroit to take the courses she is offering. Mine. Holbrook does not believe it is now necessary to keep secret such vital part of the Beautician's art. She has graduated classes each year for the past eighteen years from her hairdressing school. A visit to Mine. Holbrook's laboratories will convince one that she is a master of her profession, and we wish her much success in her new undertaking. IN MEMORIAM Members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, all even will mourn the loss of Mrs. Sarai Elizabeth Gordon, Lady president of Bocas; Dal Toro Division No. 42 for many years, in every phase of U. N. I. A. activities in the Bocas Del Toro Division. The grim reaper paged by and struck her down on May 18, 1929, after a short illness. On behalf of the U. N. I. A., the Negro World takes this opportunity to express our sympathy for the bereaved ones for the sad loss which they have sustained. We trust their sorrow may be leased by the realization that she lived her life the best she knew, and is now pressed to a higher plane of existence, where she can still inspire us in the upward climb to greatness. "A friend from us is gone, A voice we love in muffled. A place in vacant in our hearts, Which never can be tallied."

Thompson & Co. 3902 S. State Street Chicago, Ill. Agents Wanted workers to demand that their parliamentary candidates pledge themselves to support the objects of the League. In the present offensive of imperialism against the colonial peoples, which squares with Lord Melchett's policy of the British Empire as a single economic unit, British workers should demand that their candidates pledge themselves to call for the withdrawal of the Liber Party members from the Simon Commission, reject the report of the Simon Commission, demand a general amnesty of all political prisoners in the Empire, support the demand of the Colonial peoples for complete national independence, and, pending the achievement of this, press for the removal of British armies of occupation in the colonies. RICHMOND, June 27. The Hoover administration has given Virginia a Negro postmaster, and Senator Carter Glass of Lynchburg is all-worked up over it, according to reports.

FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Continued from Page Four) is the stupidity of so-called intellectual men of color who permit these white Communist vagabonds to use them as tools, in an attempt to frustrate the birth of a united Negro nationalism. For the purpose of preventing the founding of a Central African government for the protection of Negroes everywhere. About the outcome, I have no cause for fear, neither has China, as long as Japan is near. She will take care of all of Far Eastern affairs and see to it that things remain politically palatable for the consummation and perpetuation of the colored races. Moreover, I have a suspicion that it Russia attempts anything like colonization in the land of Manchuria, she will find herself in open warfare with the peginaisha within sight of Manchuria. Now, such a war would undoubtedly bring about the necessary coexistence of the East (that is of certain things were to happen, and black folks, believe me, if you will there is no talking what will happen. God only knows, for it will be hell and scissors. Russia is wrong, blooming well wrong, she has not justifiable cause Alexander Dumas, Student And Original Thinker (Continued from page 6) "I stairing further on the renown of his father, he goes on." "When one day there comes a break. You hast become Dumas, the Father for the respectful and Father Dumas for the impolite. The mind of all this folks' Dumas then has perhaps heard this phone, his son has gone on his knees than he." "How then enquired in laugh? Or well, no! Then sort happy like to the direct father, believing I perhaps what was said." "Dear, grand old man, simple and good, then would give me thy glory on an gave me thy gold. When I was young and idle. But let others of my age and value declare that I am the equal, hearing only the name, if they wish. But it is necessary." murmured him. "Yes. It is he some gentle, gentle and saw the Dumas went the street-reigned in play." "Penguin ambassadot in a Yippee born in a Yippee he proceeded to story-minster his heart. Dumas, fill the厚貌 of an Adele have seen him. He the depth into the immense for posterity to know that whatever happens it will be forced to count with thee. Know well it will read our two names, one below the other, as they appear in age, and let me here record that I have never seen in this life but my father, my friend and my master." And young Dumas was right. Now thirty-four years later, the father is the better known of the two. H. Bufonier in his "Celebrated Men and Phases," gives the following picture of Dumas, the Younger: "Recently in the rue D'Amsterdam we met this distinguished dramatist, and as he strode along he looked like a victor in life. Truthly he has the air of a master. He is very far from living the lose and carriage of his life. Tall, bright, firm and strong, he has the air of a child born—the look in a little haughty, the mustache provokingly turned up, the stop and the clavier form, with cone in air he walked as a conqueror in this Paris of which he is the son—this Paris in which he is known to all." "That day I saw more than 10 persons turn and say: 'It is Alexander Dumas.' A woman who sold papers BE A POWER ON EARTH that when one carries a loadstone, Rabbit's foot or wears a Chinese luck ring and burns Zandoras Power Incense, they always possess money, which is power—then everything one desires comes to them, so says the great minds of the East—secures 大 where the commitment to the war was of support, but this must be in direct conversation to the Communist party at home and the Soviet Policy abroad of non intervention — yet Russia to oppose the international group within the opposition at Moscow sets out in an attempt to use the Red army in an effort to maintain a sphere of special influence abroad and to divert a threatening revolution at home. All this tends to make us believe that Russia cannot be trusted, were we not told that the Red Army was solely organised and well equipped only so defensely. And can Russia sufficiently agree with hers to be interpreted? Is not China herself a Sovereign nation and to whom doth Mongolian Fighting? Doesack Russia or Mongolian China? And if in spite of these questions, China is found wrong then I would like to know where does the Sovereignty of Russia begins and where does it end. Get the Negro World!

I returned later and saw the same thing each time Dumas went on foot. He reigned in the streets by his presence—as he reigned in the theaters with his plays. Penguin murmits him there: "A combatant, a man man in dispute and tribunal in attack, reply and retort. You noticed this at first glance, for he possessed a soldier's stride, a military mustache, and a manner of lifting his head like a conquistador." Dumme, file, knew human nature thoroughly and he musted the theatre as few men have done before or since. He knew that all that touches the flesh interests us; he recognized the imperative need for love in the lives of us all. His characters are so real and alive that pity for fallen womanhood sounded through the world. Rescued Hichest Honor France gave him the highest honors in her power. He was made a Grand Commander of the Legion of Honor. He died on November 27, 1500, aged 71. Alphonse d'Alba wrote: "With the death of Alexander Dunn, tills, is extinguished the glory of this immortal tribe, which dilled Europe with glory for a full century. "The Ancestor: General of the Republic, the Hercules, the colossus, the giant, the valiant soldier, typifying notion. "The Father, the Story-beller, part excellence, the master romancer, typifying imagination. "The Son: The subtle and faithful observer, typifying Reason." Future conquerors will write the name of Dumas, fils, in the great book of immortality beside that of the best masters of French literature, and of the world. In the Place Malherbes, Paris, stands his splendid monument near those Tatars and grandfather. ```markdown ``` Weekly News Summary Of Negro Economic Conditions ored Organizations met last week in Montclair. "Finding Employment for Our Youth" was the topic for discussion. Thomas L. Puryear, Director of the New Jersey League of Social Work, said that the economic opportunities for the Negro must be developed in the future, through industry and business. The Newark (N. J.) Herald in last week's issue comments as follows on labor conditions in that city: "Thousands of coloured Americans in Newark are anxious and willing to work and cannot find work to do." Let landlords who have money open their purses and do need repairing, painting, whitewashing, and tidying many old collars that need cleaning. Let them tear down many oyster dwellings that have been standing unoccupied for years. Let the general building program be speeded up. Let the city do its share to provide additional work. Let the merchants do their share. Let the factories do their share. Let the private individuals do their share. Let everyone who has a purse and has something that needs doing have it done now. It will help humanity. It will help business. It will help Newark. SIGNIFICANT SENTENCES—The thought-provoking sentences picked up this week are selected from the address delivered in Atlanta, Ga., before the National Education Association by Mr. Arthur M. Hyde. Secretary of Agriculture. He said: "America believes that its hopes and its purposes will be the ooest achieved through a guaranty of equal opportunity to every man, leaving it to each American / to climb as high and achieve as greatly as his merits and his industry will permit. The sum of the achievements of our citizens is national accomplishment." And then, "We spent billions of money and oceans of blood and tears in a struggle across the sea, to defend our conception of politicl equality, and it is worth whatever expenditure of effort and national treasure may be required to guarantee equality of economic opportunity for all American parts that corner women are shoing is difficult to secure work in that city.

Address: A white Baptist minister of Mount Airy, N. C. led a movement to prevent Negro bricklayers from working in that city. The comment of The Greensboro Daily News, one of the liberal newspapers in the South, is interesting: "If southern people wish to find out why a good many northward and, western people look with troubled eyes on the treatment of the Negro in the South, let them consider such incidents as this." The New York Age discusses, the new president of the Pullman Company, it says: "The personality of the head of the Pullman organization has more than ordinary interest for members of our race, because of the place that corporation occupies as an employer of Negroes and in furnishing comfortable transportation for travelers in various sections of the country. The question of adequate pay for the Pullman cars and the betterment of the conditions under which they have to work, in the matter of shorter hours and pay for waiting time, are among some of the questions which will probably confront the new executive; awaiting an equitable settlement. "There are other questions affecting a larger number of the race, growing out of the discriminations "encountered in southern travel, that should receive needed attention. The policy of the Pullman organization as a corporation engaged in interstate commerce has been to make no discriminations based on race or color in its accommodations for interstate passengers. Despite this attitude of the corporation, there are many states in the South where it is extremely difficult, if not impossible, for a Negro traveler to purchase Pullman accommodations." Speaking of the effort of the Pullman porters to organize the American Federationist for July, praises A. Phillip Randolph, the leader of the movement, and then adds: "In this battle, The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters is tackling a giant corporation and tightening the battles not only of the Negro masses, but of the entire working class." The Norfolk journal and Guide reports that colored women are finding it difficult to secure work in that city. This condition was revealed in a report of Employment Bureau of Norfolk West. The report identified eighty-seven (857) women applied for work during the month and 288 placements were made. 1991 SPECIAL ADVICE Free For Asthma and Hay Fever How to relieve Warts Attacks.
