When man fails to to grasp his authority he sink level of the lower animals; and whatsoever the real man has him do, even as if he were of the lower animals, that much shall he do. If he says "go," he goes. If he says "come," he comes. By this command he performs the functions of life even as by a similar command the mule, the horse, the cow performs the will of their masters.

For the last four hundred years the Negro has been in the position of being commanded even as the lowest animals are controlled.

Because of that we have developed few men who are able to understand the strenuousness of the age in which we live.

CORDELEL, Ga.—The General Missionary Baptist Convention of Georgia, representing the 500,000 Negro Baptists of the state, has designee the second Sunday in February as Morehouse College Day, on which every member in every colored Baptist Church in Georgia will be asked to contribute one dollar toward the Morehouse endowment campaign for 500,000. The resolution endorsing the campaign and pledging the cooperation of the churches was adopted by unanimous vote. The matter was presented to the convention by A. W. Dunt of the Morehouse staff. The plan is expected to meet with general favor, in view of the fact that Morehouse College has negotiated so much to the colored Baptists of Georgia. From the first it has emphasized the training of preachers and teachers, and has sent out into the state a large number of graduates who have become leaders in these professions. It is believed that a large sum of money will be realized from the effort inaugurated by the state convention.

This feeling makes man so courageous, so bold, as to make it impossible for his brother to intrude upon his rights. So few of us can understand what it takes to make a man—the man who will never say die; the man who will never give up; the man who will never depend upon others to do for him what he ought to do for himself; the man who will not blame God, who will not blame Nature, who will not blame. Fate for his condition; but the man who will go out and make conditions to suit himself.

other for the sake of peace, one at last, after more than seven centuries, secure almost absolute independence. Let us consider these. Then if more illustrations are wanted, let us watch the growth of a small weak nation whom Alfred ruled, who were vassals to Rome, to Normandy, and to the Northern, rise from greatness unto greatness, until today they exercise authority over one-fourth of the habitable land on the globe, and because of this it is the proud boast of the Englishman that his is an empire upon whose territory the sun never sets.
The People's Forum
Election, Magro World!
From putting the latest news from the Dominican Republic in what I think often the possibility of good fellowship is ruined by an obsession of leadership.
The Willful Way
Literature has its masters to gain and war to win. It is especially coarsed by King John's agitation, and the relative writer stands to lose the freedom of his thought and action.
Here is an interesting association.
If all these things have been possible in the past, and if it is still possible for sixty millions of Englishmen to control the destiny of one-fourth of the habitable globe, and one-third of its population, then how much more possible is it not for four hundred millions of the dusky sons and daughters of Ham to wrest the land of Africa, their homeland, and the land of their forefathers, since the mind of man runneth back, from the hands of alien invaders, and establish there a government that shall command the respect and admiration of the world, and strong enough to secure redress for the wrongs done to the Negro when his rights are trampled on?
In closing, fellows, believe! Believe, as men have never believed before. We Negroes today are feeling the powers that are unseen. We walk and commune with invisible potentialities. We are seeing visions of infinite wonder, beauty and power. We hear the voices of inspiration that thrill us, and we rejoice. Hearken, and we shall have life, spirit, and power without measure.
Strengthened by the divine consciousness that there is no power on earth, or in the waters under the earth that will be able to turn the age, earnest, awakened, hopeful, courageous and determined race of four hundred million Negroes from the realization of their dreams, and the freedom and upliftment of their race, and the redemption of the fatherland Africa, we go forth today telling anew to all mankind, that "The Negro Must Be Free; Africa Must Be Redeemed!"
"BREASTING THE BREAKERS"
THIS splendid race of Negroes stand today at that point in their existence, which can be termed as, "BREASTING THE BREAKERS," for there surely are breakers ahead.
Whether we will win the success which we so much desire, or go down in insignificant defeat of time, and emerge safe, happy, contented, masterful, victorious and serene, upon the uplands of great achievements, will depend upon the energy, the courage, the determination, the unswerving loyalty, and the resistlessness which we will show, in fact upon our all around attitude towards life, and all that life can hold in store.
"We can win!" Every attentive car can hear the voice of Infinity, and the divine message of accomplishment which it brings, as we go about our daily tasks. Every throbbing heart can feel the urge of Fate, as we take fresh breaths on the journey that brings us face to face with the breakers coming ahead. Every hopeful soul among this proud race of Hamites can see the fateful inscription written on the scroll of heaven, urging us on the journey, to meet the breakers, and master them.
While in this happy, joyous, conquering frame of mind let us suit the action to the thought and the vision, and make the joy of realization secure.
Ours is a glorious future. Let them deny it who will. Let them strive to dissuade us who dare. As well may they attempt to stay the flight of time, or halt the journey of the sun upon its nails, as well may they seek to stile the rear of the ocean as to try to "keep the Negro down."
The Negro race has at last come to the realization of the fact that it has a destiny that is as great and as glorious as anything that has ever attracted the attention of the human family, and having come to that understanding, we have resolved to go forward to the realization of our dreams. Knowing as we do today that there is nothing to be gained by whining, and also that, we can never amount to anything to be gained by the whims and caprices of other races, it behooves us in this Twentieth Century day to take Infinity at His word, and march boldly forward, to the realization of our dreams.
There are great tasks ahead. We must carry them to a successful conclusion. There are rivals to be spatified and forges to be cleaved. The race of Negroes must prove equal to the demands that will be made upon them. There are mighty business enterprises to be created. The Negro race must develop the antithesis to bring them into being. There are mighty empires to be established, the likes of which the world has never seen, and the Negro must bring them into existence, and keep them strong, sturdy and secure, till the end of time, and the crash of worlds.
Negroes, fellowmen, braves — "twinkle!" "See the slies aglow with promises!" Heat the surging in the womb of Time. Take bold on opportunity, now—today, and develop the grandest, the most烈, and the proudest race that has ever graced this planet. "Rise."

EDITOR JOHN MITCHELL PASSES
MEMBERS of the Negro Newspaper Fraternity stand, with bowed heads, in reverent silence, as Editor John Mitchell, Jr., publisher of The Richmond Planet for forty-six years passes from the scene of human activities.
For nearly half a century he championed the cause of the Negro's rights, and earned a prominent place among the Negro journalists of this country. Fearless and uncompromisingly outspoken in the defense of truth and justice, he never wavered from the course he had chosen for himself.
Negro journalism has lost a stalwart, whose place will not easily be filled. He will be missed for a long, long time to come. Indeed a prince and a great man has fallen, a fighter to the last.
The staff of The Negro World takes this opportunity of expressing their condolence for the bereaved and sorrowing relatives and friends. "MAY HE REST IN PEACE."
"SHOP EARLY! MAIL EARLY!" POST OFFICE
SLOGAN
FRIENDS in this community are hereby reminded of the appeal that is being made by the Postmaster, published in another column of this paper, urging upon us all the necessity of shopping early, and mailing early, thus ensuring the delivery of our packages of Xmas presents in time for the festive day, Christmas.
By informing this appeal and warning of the post office department we will also have the added satisfaction of knowing that we have added in making it "Merry Christmas" indeed for a large number of the employees of that department.
Let us lend our aid and cooperation in helping to make this appreciation come true.
GARVEY PROGRAM NOT IMPRACTICAL
HERE are many Negroes who refuse to align themselves with Macas Garvey and program of racial uplift, and African redemption because they think their ideas are impractical, utterly unkindful of the fact that this program entails the freedom of this race of Negroes, from every form of thradion, which, every red-blooded Negro craves.
First, the Universal Negro Improvement Association, August, 1929, of the World, nor the old organization never had any apologies to make in the demands set forth. And now that this new organization is on the same displeasing this same cause, it makes no endeavors to submit any apologies to any man, or to any group of men, no matter whom they are.
The Governor of Florida has been sent delegates and letters from the N. A. A. C. P., the Interracial Commission, and other organizations and individuals, urging the prosecution of members of the mob who lynched a colorful man at Quincy, Florida, last week.
The followers of Mircus Garvey realized, long ago, that their path may lead through blood and tears, like Afrikan is free; ere this race of Negroes is thoroughly emancipated, and has reached a plane of unplittment that would satisfy the longings of the race. But we have also decided, that whatever the trials, no matter what the prizages we shall have to endure, irrespective of what barriers may be placed in the way, the fight for racial emancipation and Afrikan Redemption will never erase "all Africans is free."
It was well said in some of these expressions that the lynching, the third this year out of a total of five for the whole country, is a serious blow to that State and a reflection upon the whole South, and that however hideous the victims' crime, lynching can have no defense under a government of law, that this act of aggression stigmatizes our civilization and disercutes our religious protections around the world.
We would like to call the attention of the Debating Thorntones to the events which have transpired during the past three hundred years. We want them to pay attention to the many inventions which have been brought out during the last hundred years. The impossibilities of yesterday are the actualities of today, and the truth of tomorrow will be still more startling.
Listen, Negroes, and hear the voice of Infinity saying: "Princes shall come up out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall soon stretch out her hands unto God," and now the time has come. Debate, fellow Negroes, no matter what the critics and the oppressors say. That confident belief in the ultimate realization of our dreams will form an impelling, irresistible force that will carry this race forward to the topmost rung of the ladder of success.
It is very true that the enactment of special anti-lynching laws by some of our States and the growth anti-lynching sentiment have had a positive effect, but, until the pulpits, newspapers, business groups and all get together with a solid determination to blot out this great American shame, there will be lynchings by race-hating, blood-thirsty hoodlums.
Negroes, we stand today at the gate of unavoidable empire of Power. Believe and we shall open the gates, and we shall find the answer to our prayers and the realization of our dreams, ya more—the fulfillment of all our desires. The sunrise of golden skies shall encircle your boundless sea of Hope. We laugh at impositions, barriers, and objections. We know that difficulties were made to be overcome. Our souls are charged with a divine impetus that will impel us on till we have reached the highest places awaiting the sons of earth.
But when the disease becomes so contagious that white Southerners take a white man without a semblance of clothes on his body and string him up until dead as they, in Eastland, Texas, this weak, there is more reason to believe that the agencies named above will before so long get together and put a stop to a thing which may in time exact a price in blood and tears beyond our calculation — The Louisville Leader.
Look around you, and be convinced. A Scotch immigrant boy rises from obscurity poverty to be a great steel linger; the son of a Welsh miner, born in the midst of squidful want, and reared in pennity rises to control the destinies of the greatest empire that the world has ever seen. For much than eight years, and a Welsh immigrant boy who came to these towns many years ago, he risen from place to place, until today he is able to capture the nation, and to hins fall the task of selecting the original immigrant that will be allowed to be future settlers and fill the nation of America. A strangely Irish nation, divided, fighting factions, battling with others for the love of God, fighting one

furiously threw three of the seven
victims.
However heinous the victim's
evil, lynching can have no defense
under a government of law, where the
Court is not bound by its contents observed. Its continuance alignates our civilization and its practice discredits our religious professions around the world.
"A number of states have canceled special anti-lynching laws with good effect. Among three are laws creating a state constitutionally under control of the governor, giving the governor power to suspend doctrinal officers, who fall to protect their prisoners, and empowering the state to take direct jurisdiction if necessary in the apprehension and prosecution of lynchers. Probably even more effective, however, has been the growth or anti-lynching sentiment across the South. When the pulpits, newspapers, women's organizations and business leadership of Florida determine to end lynching in that state they will succeed. Until they do, this crime will go on, to the continued discredit of Texas, Florida, the South, and America; for it is a fact that lynchings occur nowhere else in the world, not even in the lands to which we sent missionaries."
Lynching is lynching, and is condemnation by all is necessary to protect and preserve our government in America—The Denver Star.

Boston, Negro World!
Rose pounding the latest news from the Dominican Republic in what I think might be of interest to the readers of The Negro World.
The President of this Republic is now in the United States of America, Baltimore, Md., undergoing an operation for his health, and radio receiver in his cabinet are all colored men. This republic, including Halif, is the only place in the Western World where black men govern white men. Santa Domingo deserves more mention and practical helpfulness from our brethren across the seas, especially the Negro population of the United States, than it now gets. I am sure readers will agree with me, inasmuch as it is the accepted standard "that the majority governs." The Negroes are overwhelming in the majority in all the West Indian Islands, and more so in Santa Domingo, where they actually govern.
The cry of "Africas for Africans, those at home, and those abroad," is heard and responded to by the appointment and election of Senor Enelio Woody to the vice-presidency of our divisions, as the representative of the Spanish section of the U. N. I. A. of A. C. L. in this city. We are expecting to open up a chapter at Lalla, further in the interior, where one of our members owns five hundred acres of fertile land (all the lands here are fertile, being virgin soil). We are inclined to think that if we plant match sticks we will keep telegraph poles, and our division may soon purchase for the good cause Africa.
Nevertheless, we over here also insist, as practiced and practical-headed beings to down our buckets we are." We raise the cry, "West Indies for West Indians." Yes, friends, this shall be one of the strongest colony and ally for the great "African Commonwealth."
Will the contest kindly look up his attics for Santo Denirogo or Haiti, one of the islands of the West Indies, and show some more interest in Negro independence and government. I will be giving practical information in Negro business man books in the column of *World weedy*. THOMAS P. BRYAN.

bring about in the conduct of the
The N. W. Intely.
You are a worthy successor to the

I like your mother of doing your work.
But some of these other writers do
not seem to be equally in your company.
One Montreal Arden Bryan writing on aenea amidst the subject of "Japan" says that she fought gloriously in defense of China and all the colored races of the world. History does not hear him out in that statement. The history of Japan clearly shows her to be an imperialistic government from start to finish. Japan is accused of having armed, officered and supported the Jute Chan So Lim, warlord of Manchuria. If imperialistic Japan has any intention of ever being the champion of the dark and colored races she has failed up to now. So let it be known.
How Nerpress can arrive at such a conclusion I felt to understand.
Raphael seems to be just as reluctant to yield or give up her special privileges (Judicial Capitulations, extra-territorial rights, her commercial privileges, etc.) as the most imperialistic white nations.
I am a great admirer of the Rise, Marcus Garvey, and I think that all exponents of Garveyism should make their arguments correspond to, and consistent with the philosophy of Marcus Garvey. Marcus Garvey, has the greatest outlook, scopes of knowledge, and information on the history of Negroes and Negro affairs of any other living Negro or Ethiopian in the world. I want to see an educated Marcus Garvey, not a uneducated Marcus Garvey the correct viewpoint, information and teaching. Any Negro who is not prepared to do that should leave it to Mr. Garvey and Editor Brown. Those two, and others.
In meeting of the war generals of Japan I would not call Gen. Nogi Nogi, Gen. Oku, Okue, etc. Tell the Negro the war. Do not fool him. If those people who wish to teach the Negro the history of (Hayti) Haiti cannot afford to tell the whole truth about the Haytian people, leave it alone. What do I mean? I defy those dealing with the subjects to give the correct information about the people de couleur and Toussaint's fight with them. Their treachery to the wace. I defy any of them to give the true story of one Gen. Rigan.
I do not wish to be forced to dis-
cuss the threes in the white mansor.
I want to do it in The Negro World.
Yours truly.

Editor, The Negro World.
Please perceive in your youthful ability to express myself on "leadership."
There is a leadership complex that actually affects the Negro race for all but those group organizations every one of them himself a leader, and very
often the possibility of good fellowship is ruined by an obsession of leadership.
To lead a people means to emounter danger first and leave last; to be first to die when death is demanded; to suffer the rebuke, and repents which the people might suffer to stand, between them and danger. To crave leadership is to crave the hitter cup of the cross. When God threatened to destroy the people of Israel and raise himself another people, Moses offered to die in their stead, so earnest was he that God spared the people.
When will the Negro become race conscious like the other races of the world is something hard to predict? Mr. Blackman, how many of you are willing to have and show brotherly love to the Negro, especially the educated one, is always ready to sympathize with the other races rather than his own; ready to help other races rather than his own thereby proving to the world that he is half human.
No longer should we remain satisfied with the petting of the white race because they only pet us to keep us satisfied, so that they can use us as they wish. Now we see it plain; but they see that the Negroes are becoming wiser and wiser. "They are trying to press us tighter and tighter in order to make us turn back. But there is no turning back for the awakened Negroes. The way is too bright. We who are loyal and faithful to the cause see a shining light; and we are bound for the light, caring not what the people say, and what we are going to meet on our way. We are going on hoping to have a vision that will mean freedom for the black peoples of the world; men and women with a determination to go on until they make their vision a reality. To such men and women we give our financial support. The time for action is "now," while the thought takes hold upon us, and while we have the desire to do for ourselves; by so doing set an example to all other Negro communities.
Let us begin to post our interests,
and begin to rear such monuments
to the Negro achievements in the
field of business that will guarantee
our economic future, as well as will
earn for us the respect of the other
people of the other races of mankind.

To the Editor of The Negro World:
To the Editor of The Negro World:
Please let me add my little quotation to those of the millions of the newly awakened Negro for the wonderful spirit of fortitude, showin' in the recent imprisonment of our great leader, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, who is daily showing, the way for the betrayment of the race. We are with our great leader in and out of prison. His doctrine of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, has caught the world after. The imprisonment of a new Negro or an狱迫 cause does not in any way impede our progress—our worry is for the recognition of African and Government of our own ideals. • The imprisonment makes him the Hon. Marcus Garvey must be—we want to still in your other stopping steps to future success. The chances are that you may be sent—torn again—to the Negro, but our faith in you shall never falter, for the principles of Justice and for the rights of humanity you have been violated by your own, and • by others by misrepresentation. This was seen at the convention August 1, 1829. The fight the Negro. Marcus is putting up is not in solitude one, but for the betrayment of 400 million Negroes—it is universal. God is our Commander and the Hon. Marcus is our Captain. We shall follow, with the Red, Black and Green until African redemens for ancient glory to her sons and daughters at home and abroad.

announce the offer of a each price of
3,100 for the high school pupil submits
the best paper on "America's Tenth Mug," and a price for
the like amount for the school making
the best use of the Commission's
Tenth Mug project. The contest
is national in scope and all pupils
high school and junior high
school are eligible to close
April 1, 1930. A 6,000 word
pamphlet of source material has
be prepared by the Commission and will
be furnished free to any one inter-
ested, together with full information
as to the conditions of the contest.
The announced purpose of these prizes is to encourage as widely as possible the study of the Negro part in American history, which, according to the Commission, is much more interesting than is generally supposed. It is believed that such a study will be helpful to the children of both races, promoting more intelligent and objective attitudes on the one side, and developing whichever pride of race on the other. The Commission asks the cooperation of high school principals and teachers, and also invited correspondence from pupils who may be interested.
Kimte Hanesen, Danish heavyweight, is an accomplished, talented
Literature has its limits, so we and war to win. It is especially concerned by king Ling, sage, and the relative writing stands to lose the freedom of his thought and action.... Here is an interesting speculation on public opinion, and its influence on literature. The speculator is once other than that eminent Hindu post-philosopher, Rabindranath Tagore. It is in the form of a letter, and letter-writing, says Tagore, is the shatter of the soul.
"Tommybrow, we teach Singapore. Then begin the chapter of Land, and the current of my chapter will be grievously obstructed. Not because I shall lack the leisure, but that my mind will be dislodged from the channel in which it is now running. Why? Because of the pull of massed man, called the public. Doubtless the attraction of, the public has at all times some effect on a writer's mind, but when it comes too near, it becomes an impediment. Then it is constantly bundling its own thoughts in the writer's mind, but the writer are nothing but its own thoughts. An immense force of suggestion from the outside that keeps exerting an insidious influence on his pen. We all say that we are determined to ignore this, but acknowledgement lurks in the very vehemence of our assertion.
"The fact of the matter is, in that the auditorium of literature, the Public occupies the Royal Box; and it is impossible to get rid of this fact when sitting down to write. You may ask: Why want to get rid of it at all? The point requires consideration. The event has no doubt proved that Kelidas wrote his Megha-duta (the Cloud Messenger) for the world at large. It had it been for a particular class then, with that class, the Megha-duta would have met its end on the same funeral pyre. But the thing that we call the call did not, in the time of Kelidas, sit so close to the stage. Had it done so, it would have been very much in the way of the latter audiences coming in procession through the centuries.
"The public of today is a definitely crystallized portion of the generality of men. Within it there are hardened into clots the politics, the social system, the religious beliefs, the special tastes and indignations, and what not of the modern man. It may confidently be asserted that its demands are not the same as will be the demands of the next century. But it is none the less voiceless in its plaudits and its castigations. Moreover, even within the narrow confines of the present time, the duration of its praise or blame is epigramal. This idea that King-Public rejects today, indeed, it proclaims tomorrow, indeed, if it had been all along its very own area, its own afterwards probably just about about this thing only a white ago caused us to clobber with a sacred emotion, obviously because the history of its ecstatic tears has already been forgotten. This Public was brought into being in its business quarters when, found the shops and godowns of the East India Company, the City of Calcutta boarded the hand one day, just and to cause this market proved of a public or truly representative of the world of men, merely because of its numbers.
When we acknowledge a poem as Poste, it implies at least this recognition that his words are our words. So it is best to leave a poet alone to any his may, that he may the most easily speak for all of us. Let him not drift into the habit of according value to a message merely because, by jumbling, together the favorite contents for the three being of a particular crowd, it may have succeeded for the notice in causing their hydra-bonds to die in multitudinous apprehension. Let us rather cultivate the courage to remember that, in the delimitation of literature, one often proves to be more than a thousand. Since literature represents the realm of spirit in humbling monsters, it is all the more important to struggle to be free. Those that drift with the public public will not create literature but only bubble. Literature and leadership will need to stand one against the many, and both require the will to win.
Hampton Institute
Hampton Inst., Ver.—The religious Passion Play at Oberammergau will be one of the high spots of the fourth annual European tour to France, Belgium, Holland, England, and Germany, of the travel-study party conducted under the auspices of Hampton Institute.
the religious Passion Play, depicting the religious Our Lord is given but once a day, a portunity offered by the Hampton tour to Oberammergau makes possible a visit under most favorable conditions.
The party this year will sail from New York on June 18, returning July 23. The itinerary includes visits to Rotan, Amiens, which schedules also a trip to the battlefields of the World War, Brussels, and Amsterdam; which includes the Isle of Magen. Starting at Cologne the party will go through the Rhine Valley by boat for ten days for ten days. Versailles and Malmaison are to be reached by motor from this city to Obertimmarger to attend two nights in Malaise with attendance at the Passion Play, July 9.

his next venture was a trip to Springfield, Illinois. While there he found it necessary to enter a battle royal with four contenders. The first contender, circumstances, Jack won this by knocking out all four of the contenders. This battle gave him confidence in himself.
Would you believe it? The Grand Old Man of the Glove Slinger's Union returns to the old trade this Wednesday evening, when he will swap wallops with one Andrea Castena, at the Bronx Coliseum at popular prices. I think this was the fellow that Harry met in Mexico not so very long ago and lost on a foul, as they say. Well, let's hope that this bout turns out to be something worth while.
Harry has a good opportunity to become the Black, Menace he once was; if he stealths himself and fights, instead of holding, he should make up his mind to either up or drop out of the racket, for keeps. He should not resort to stalling and just merely trying to stay the limit with an opponent.
The best way for him to do so is to deliver the poison as soon as possible. He does this he will be in the limelight once more as a heavyweight contender for championship honors.
On Tuesday evening boxing fans will have an opportunity of getting another lead of Chocolate, and believe me most of the boys do not mind if they get Chocolate for breakfast, dinner and supper, as, or either occasion. It is generally served "Hot." The Chocolate on this occasion will be served with Salvatore diyorgio, Tinka aqua Silverberg gave the Kid quite some trouble the last time out; and it has been treated that German intend taking the Chocolate out of the Kid, and leave him just another Cuban boy, who once was great. Well that has to be done, and believe me it takes a good time to do it; and I don't think Herman has a chance, although one never can tell what will happen when two men face each other in a combat.
No doubt there will be quite a crowd on hand to witness this affair as the Kid has been booked for three big shots at the Garden, and therefore him to make a good showing as he may lose his drawing power.
Don't Let the Old
We crave more nice houts in and around town.
Boxing is losing its interest on account of such poor cards. There are a few head-horns that I would like to see in action against good opponents: La Roe Smith, middleweight; Leo Rosa, lightweight; Baby Face Quinteno, tenorweight.
Where is Δ1 Brown these days?
Ruby Bradley, Black Bill; Baby Joe Gans, Candace Lee, Harry Smith, flyweight, Young Kid Singh?
Come on promoters got "em" out, and give the fans a good show, for they need, and crave "Kid Chocolatation." Kid Chocolatate is doing his hit, why not let the other fellows do theirs. We have had enough of these "has-bones." There evidently is known too much about the sons to make a decent snoowing.
Asthma So Bad She Was Hopeless
Expected to Die. Got Well Quickly.
No Sign of Asthma Now.
Folks whose asthma, or bronchial cough seems almost hopeless will be glad to know how Mrs. M. Bennett, 128 N. Noble St., Indianapolis, regained health. She says:
"I suffered with asthma for years. Three years ago I became so bad I thought my time was come. My daughter read about Nacor, and not a bottle, I didn't see any use trying it, but I did, and improved almost at once. I recovered activity and have never had a sign of asthma show.

Alphonse Chison, a good colored walter-weight, put up a wonderful fight Saturday night, Nov. 30, at the Olympia A. C. He is one of the few American colored fighters that goes in there determined to win, and does not stall or allow the other fellow, who is generally a white boy, to take the lead away from him. Chison can hit and has a good defence. The boy he fought was no sleucc elither. This was an eight-round affair, and Alphonse took at least six of the eight rounds, and received a well earned decision. On the same card was Leo ("One Punch") Williams.
Don't make me laugh for if Leo has only one punch he must have left it in the old country. Music Rosenbloom made him look like a faded lily ready to blow out. This boy can't fight at all; and now in the world he got tagged "One Punch" in a mystery to me and a lot of others.
Listen! Leo has the nerve to have embellished on his hind-rib robe, a large ferocious lion, which would imply that he is a dangerous man. Hah! How funny? The bird could not scare a mouse, which goes to show that these colored fighters that are sometimes called "Tiger," "Wolf," and "Wild Cat," "Panther," "Gorilla," etc., are only false paraders. "Tiger" Flowers surely fought like a tiger, as those who fought him will testify.
Say, boys! If a tiger in reality was to deep around one of these clubs when "Tiger" Rayne inighting he would probably bring his head in chance and leave the police cold. I would suggest that some of these couple be the northern leave towns and go out in the streets or woods, with the rest of their animal family, and put up a fight. They will probably learn something from their corruptions, of the real form in regards to how to be savage, and fight with real animal instinct.

The New Book On Jack Johnson
The recent book published on the life of Jack Johnson, in and out of the ring, is one of wide interest. No doubt, a lot of people have read of Johnson's victories, and his many troubles the world over. But you will be surprised to read of the many adventures he has had; how great sums of money have come to him without the asking; the various business ventures he has entered into, and made wonderful success.

On another page of this paper you will find advertisements giving you all the details. I enjoyed the book immensely, and I know you will too; so wait yourself of the opportunity of securing one, and learn the real Jack Johnson as he was.
We were glad 15 hours of "Gallina" Jones knock-out victory over Nick Testo.
This bout took place in Akron, O. Quint Tuesday. There was a crowd on hand to witness this stitching fight. Jones was on the short end of the money, as most of the Akron fans thought Testo would take him without much trouble, but it was easily noticed during the first round that Jones was in there to do things up brown. As he was hurt and accurate in his right short, he almost had Nick out on the stretcher in the third round, but the bell saved him. Going up for the fourth Testo was still shuffling. In that round Jones merely toged with his prey and not him next for the stitching took.
This victory brought Jones, a return go with Joelis Fiegs, Wetterweight champion. They will meet in Boston, December 13th.

Jack was now seventeen years of age and decided conclusively on a ring career., Dau Cpedon and Tommy Tracy, prominent in boxing rules, took him under their tutelage in Chicago, and there helped him to develop some of the power and skill that characterised his boxing career.
Lew Leslie's "Blackbirds," which opened at the Adelphi theater Tuesday night to a capacity house, lived up to its advance notices—and how! I do not think that I am binge over enthusiastic, or that I am influenced to any degree by the fact—that it was a Race production in saying that "Blackbirds" is the best musical show I've ever witnessed—and this includes the memorable "Shuffle Alou," the forerunner of all the present "reviews."
Not a Dull Minute
From start to finish there is, not a dull moment, not an instance where it slows up, or where the audience was not almost wildly receptive. In fact, there were so many encounters that the performance was a great deal longer than scheduled.
Adelea Hall, schittinating star of the show, gives a performance which marries her as one of the greatest artists in the business. And by "artist" I mean just that, as the songs she sang and the dances she danced were, each one, making jewels of their kind. She loses nothing by a comparison with the late Florence Mills.
Ada Ward, trim and vibrant, singing "I Can't Give You Anything But Love, Baby," with Lowin Cole, stands out all second only to the great Adelea. These two talented ones in the same show seem almost too much for code money.
There are many beautiful parts of the show that it is increasingly difficult to enumerate them. The university on "Forever" to the tune

'Blackbirds'
Best of Musical Shows
Mr. duk, which thrust Thurhouse, lived and how! bogle over a influenced act—that it says that musical show of the St. Louis Blues, and a bit of Sterrahwin's Rhapody of the same color," and accompanied by Cecil Mack's "Blackbird" chair, was better than "Porgy" ever dared to be. And that's saying something. The number had desert of cathedral-like beauty set to a low-down blues rhythm; a sort of enquite mixture of jazz and the chatter.
And then there were the Berry Brothers, with their manicured feet. Those boys, doing Bill Robinson's stairway dance are a lot, and nothing less. "Snakehips" Earl Tucker, the boy with the slimne middle, detains with his body and feet that are hard to believe.
One of the very, very highlights was the inimitable Johnny Hudgins—he of the crimson mouth, and wordless songs. Johnny shags but doesn't make a sound. I kept wanting to hear him make some kind of noise, but he never does—but is he chomp? Some of the jokes are old, some new, but most all of them funny. This is true also of the scenes, one of which, was wansherin's yard song—the grave yard skilt. But it went over with a crashing bang. And I must not forget to mention the skilt with Blue McAllister, Tim Moore, Montan Marland and some other highly amusing fellows.

While much of the game was played in Simpson Territory, the Kentucky, who last week scored on Wilberforce and held the powerful Ohioans to the low scores of 38-6, threatened to score a couple of times, but the K. G. line did not even bend in holding the ball for downs.
No writings of the game can overlook the wonderful playing of Theodore Groen, Knoxville quarterback, who needed of fifteen, twenty, and twenty-five yards time after take (to put the Tennessee within scoring distance). Sanford at fullback played his best game of the year, gaining many yards through the line. Hillard, foot halfback, also must be mentioned for his speed running, while Cary and Davin did their share of ground gainter. Hubbard, with his accurate pass marking, Nickeling, was largely responsible for Knoxville's large score.

Stepin Fetchit May
Go Into Vaudeville
Hollywood, Dec. 9.—Stepin Fochit, famous Race movie star, is reported to have accepted an offer to go into vaudeville for the R. K. O. very soon. This rumored engagement will be arranged so as not to interfere with Stepin's work on the screen.
The English Theatre folk go wild over them—The Three Eddies, versatile American actors, who are favored with the London public. They act gross over big and they are always in demand.
Any Los Angeles city official remembered that "Cortez" had a police record. The little champion in the city was the ex-merchant.
before many more in comparison
compared with those that are
implemented before. It is therefore
that we should be prepared to
think and react accordingly.
If all these things have been possible by the past, and if it is still possible for sixty millions of Englishmen to control the destinies of one-fourth of the habitable globe, and one-third of its population, then how much more possible is it not for four hundred millions of the ducky sons and daughters of Ham to wrest the land of Africa, their homeland, and the land of their forefathers, since the mind of man runneth back, from the hands of alien invaders, and establish there a government that shall command the respect and admiration of the world, and strong enough to secure redress for the wrongs done to the Negro when his rights are trampled on?
In closing, follows, believe! Believe, as men have never believed before. We Negroes today are feeling the powers that are unseen. We walk and commune with invisible potentialities. We are seeing visions of infinite wonder, beauty and power. We hear the voices of inspiration that thrill us, and we rejoice. Hearken, and we shall have life, spirit, and power without measure.
Strengthened by the divine consciousness that there is no power on earth, or in the waters under the earth that will be able to turn the ager, earnest, awakened, hopeful, courageous and determined race of four hundred million Negroes from the realization of their dreams, and the freedom and upliftment of their race, and the redemption of the fatherland Africa, we go forth today telling anew to all mankind, that "The Negro Must Be Free; Africa Must Be Redeemed!"
"BREASTING THE BREAKERS"
THIS splendid race of Negroes stand today at that point in their existence which can be termed as, "BREASTING THE BREAKERS," for there surely are breakers ahead.
Whether we will win the success which we so much desire, or go down in ignoble defeat of time, and emerge safe, happy, contented, masterful, victorious and serene, upon the uplands of great achievements, will depend upon the energy, the courage, the determination, the unswerving loyalty, and the resistlessness which we will show, in fact upon our all around attitude towards life, and all that life can hold in store.
"We can win!" Every attentive car can hear the voice of Infinity, and the divine message of accomplishment which it brings, as we go about our daily tasks. Every throbbing heart can feel the urge of Fate, as we take fresh breaths on the journey that brings us face to face with the breakers coming ahead. Every hopeful soul among this proud race of Hamites can see the fateful inscription written on the scroll of heaven; urging us on the journey, to meet the breakers, and master them.
While in this happy, joyous, conquering frame of mind-let us suit the action to the thought and the vision, and make the joy of realization secure.
Ours is a glorious future. Let them deny it who will. Let them strive to dissuade us who date. As well may they attempt to stay the flight of time, or halt the journey of the sun upon its axis, as well may they seek to stifle the rear of the ocean as to try to "keep the Negro down."
The Negro race has at last come to the realization of the fact that it has a duty that is as great and as glorious as anything that has ever attracted the attention of the human family, and having come to that understanding, we have resolved to go forward to the realization of our dreams. Knowing as we do today that there is nothing to be gained by whining, and also that we can never amount to anything to be gained by the whims and caprices of other races, it behooves us in this Twentieth Century day to take Infinity at His word, and march boldly forward to the realization of our dreams.
There are greet risis ahead. We must carry them to a successful conclusion. There are rivers to be spanned; and forests to be cleared. The race of Negroes must prove equal to the demands that will be made upon them. There are mighty business enterprises to be created. The Negro race must develop the aptitude to bring them into being. There are mighty empires to be established, the like of which the world has never seen, and the Negro must bring them into existence, and keep them strong, stately and secure, till the end of time, and the crash of worlds.
Negroes, fellowmen, braves—awake! "See the skies aglow with promises. Hear the surging in the womb of Time. Take hold on opportunity now—today, and develop the grandest, the noblest, and the proudest race that has ever graced this planet. 'Rise.'"

VOL. XXVI. NEW YORK, DECEMBER 14, 1929 No. 19.
SUBSCRIPTION CAMPAIGN GOING GREAT
GREAT interest is being manifested in our big subscription campaign by readers and their friends from various sections wherever The Negro World is circulated.
Judging from the eager inquiries that come pouring in one can confidently predict that this campaign for thousands of new subscribers will prove to be an overwhelming success.
The excellent value of the premiums that are being offered, the wide range of new, novel, and interesting features that will be added, and the contemplated addition to the pages of The Negro World, are matters of great interest to all our readers; therefore it is not surprising to see the great and widespread activity created among the people wherever the campaign is broadcast.
HAVE YOU SENT IN THAT SUBSCRIPTION OF YOURS? Better Harry!
EDITOR JOHN MITCHELL PASSES
MEMBERS of the Negro Newspaper Fraternity stand, with bowed heads, in reverent silence, as Editor John Mitchell, Jr., publisher of The Richmond Planet for forty-six years passes from the scene of human activities.
For nearly half a century he championed the cause of the Negro's rights, and earned a prominent place among the Negro journalists of this country. Fearless and uncompromisingly outspoken in the defense of truth and justice, he never wavered from the course he had chosen for himself.
Negro journalism has lost a stalwart, whose place will not easily be filled. He will be missed for a long, long time to come. Indeed a prince and a great man has fallen, a fighter to the last.
The staff of The Negro World takes this opportunity of expressing their condolence for the bereaved and sorrowing relatives and friends. "MAY HE REST IN PEACE."
"SHOP EARLY! MAIL EARLY!" POST OFFICE SLOGAN
FRIENDS in this community are hereby reminded of the appeal that is being made by the Postmaster, published in another column of this paper, urging upon us all the necessity of shopping early, and mailing early, thus ensuring the delivery of our packages of Xmas presents in time for the positive day, Christmas.
By following this appeal and warning of the post office department we will also have the added satisfaction of knowing that we have added in making it "Merry Christmas" indeed for a large number of the employees of that department.
Let us send our aid and co-operation in helping to make this expectation come true.
HERE are many Negroes who refuse to align themselves with Marcus Carvey and program of racial injustice, and African redemption because they think his ideas are inarguably utterly imminent of the fact that this program entails the freedom of this race of Negroes, from every form of threathom, which every gay blooded Negro craves.
First, the Universal Negro Improvement Association, August, 1929, of the World, nor the old organization never had any apologies to make in the demands set forth. And now that this new organization is on the scene championing this same cause, it makes no endeavors to submit any apologies to any man, or to any group of man, no matter whom they be.
The Governor of Florida had been sent telegrams and letters from the N. A. A. C. P., the Intermediate Commission, and other organizations and individuals, urging the prosecution of member of the mob who lynched a colored man at Quincy, Florida, last week.
The followers of Marcus Carney realized, long ago, that their path may lead through blood and tears, are Africa is free; are the race of Negroes is thoroughly emancipated, and has reached a place of upliftment that would satisfy the longings of the race. But we have also decided, that whatever the trials, no matter what the privations we shall have to endure, irrespective of what barriers may be placed in the way, the fight for racial emancipation and Africa Redemption will never cease "till Africa is free."
It was well said in some of these expressions that the lynching, the third this year out of a total of five for the whole country, is a serious blow to that. State and a reflection upon the whole South, and that however hideous the victim's crime, lynching can have no defense under a government of law, that this act of anarchy alignates our civilization and discredits our religious professions around the world.
We would like to call the attention of the Doubting Thomases to the events which have transpired during the past three hundred years. We want them to pay attention to the many inventions which have been brought out during the last hundred years. The impossibilities of yesterday are the actualities of today, and the truth of tomorrow will be still more startling.
It is very true that the enactment of special anti-lynching laws by some of our States and the growth of anti-lynching sentiment have had good effects on business and newspapers, business groups and all get together with a solid determination to blot out this great American shame; there will be lynchings by race-racing, blood-thirsty hoodlums. But when the disease becomes so contagious that white Southners take a white man without a semblance of clothes on his body and string him up until dead as they in Eastland, Texas, this week, there is more reason to believe that the agencies named above will-before as long get together and put a stop to a thing which may in time exact a price in blood and tears beyond our calculation.—The Louisville Leader.
Listen. Negroes, and hear the voice of infinity saying: "Princess shall come up out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall soon stretch out her hands unto God," and now the time has come. Believe fellow-Negroes, no matter what the critics and the oppressors say. That coudent belief in the ultimate realization of our dreams will form an impelling, irresistible force that will carry this race forward to the topmost rung of the ladder of success.
Negroes, we stand today at the gate of an invisible empire of Power. Believe and we shall open the gates, and we shall find the answer to our prayers and the realization of our dreams, yea more—the fulfillment of all our desires: The sunrise of golden skies shall encirclem your boundless sea of Hope. We laugh at impossibilities, barriers, and obstructions. We know that difficulties were made to be overcome. Our souls are charged with a divine impetus that will impel us on till we have reached the highest places awaiting the sons of earth.
Look around you, and be convinced. A Scotch immigrant boy rises from obscure poverty to be a great steel king; the son of a Welsh miner, born in the midst of squidid want, and reared in prity rises to control the destinies of the greatest empire that the world has ever seen, for more than eight years, and a Welsh immigrant boy who came to those places many years ago her rise from plate to place, taught today he sits in the cabinet of the nation, and to him falls the task of selecting the appropriate immigrant that will be allowed to be future soldiers and officers of America. As strangely native nation, divided, fighting factions against faction, having each other for the love of God, fighting alone.
had seven lynchings, four states, Texas, Florida, Mississippi and Tennessee enjoy that reputation, Florida furnishing three of the seven victims.
However, heinous the victim's crime, lynching can have no defense under a government of law, where the Constitution must be respected and its contents observed. Its continuance attignatures our civilization and its practice discredits our religious professions around the world.
"A number of states have enacted special anti-lynching laws with good effect. Among these are laws creating a state constabulary under control of the governor, giving the governor power to suspend dor dismiss officers who fail to protect their prisoners, and empowering the state to take direct jurisdiction if necessary in the apprehension and prosecution of lynchers. Probably even more effective, however, has been the growth of anti-lynching sentiment across the South. When the pupils, newspapers, women's "organizations and business leadership of Florida determine to end lynching in that state they will succeed. Until they do, this crime will go on, to the continued discredit of Texas, Florida, the South, and America; for it is a fact that lynchings occur nowhere else in the world, not even in the lands-to which we sent missionaries." Lynching is lynching, and is condemnation by all is necessary to protect and preserve our governments in America.—The Denver Star.
"Opportunity"
William Green, president of the
American Federation of Labor, later
died enraged to the abolition of
Johnson below Wash.
We have joined the United States now
with the American Union in what
I have called the union of the rebellion
of the people of the United States.
The President of this Republic is now
in the United States of America,
at Baltimore, MD, undergoing an operation
for his health. General Horace Winslow
and the cabinet are all
heathen. The president, including
Heft, is the only one who is in the West-
ern World and who govern
whites men. Santa Domingo deserves
more mention and practical helpfulness
from our brethren across the seas, especially the Negro population
of the United States, than. It now gets.
I am sure readers will agree with
me, in insumach as it is the accepted standard "that the majority
governs." The Negroes are overwhelming in the majority in all the
West Indian Islands, and more so in Santo Domingo, where they actually govern.
The cry of "Africa for Africans, those ar home, and those abroad," is heard and responded to by the appointment and election of Senior Emilio Woody to the vice-presidency of our divisions, as the representative of the Spanish section of the U. N. I. A. of A. C. L. in this city. We are expecting to open up a chapter at Italy, further in the interior, where one of our members owns five hundred acres of fertile, being virgin soil). We are inclined to think that if we plant match sticks we will reap telegraph poles, and our division may soon purchase for the good cause Afric.
Nevertheless, we over here also insist, as practical and level-headed beings, "to cast down our buckets where we are." We raise the cry, "West Indies for West Indians." Yes, friends, this shall be one of the strongest colony and ally for the great "African Commonwealth."
As I am writing here passes the National Guard of this Republic, all Negroes, general colonel, major, captain, lieutenants and soldiers. All look like me. I am proud of them.
Will the readers kindly look up his atlas for Santo Domingo or Haiti, one of the islands of the West Indies, and show some more interest in Negro independence and practical information? I will be giving practical information for Negro business men and others in the columns of The Negro World weekly.
THOMAS P. BRYAN.
P. O. Box 831,
Santo Domingo, R. D.
To the Editor of the Negro World,
Dear Sir:
I have been reading The Negro
World for six or seven years with
much gratitude and satisfaction. May
I have the privilege of expressing my
views in the section of your paper
known as the People's Forum?
I appreciate the improvement
which you seem to have been able to
bring about in the conduct of the
The N. W. lately.
You are a worthy successor to the
Thomas Fortune, dean of
Negro journalism in the U. S. A.'
I like your method of doing your work.
But some of those other writers do
not seem to be exactly in your com-
pany.
One Monarch Arden Bryan writing on foreign affairs on the subject of "Japan" says that she fought vigorously in defense of China and all the colored races, of the world. History does not bear him out in that statement. The history of Japan clearly shows her to be an imperialistic government from start to finish. Japan is accused of having armed, officered and supported into China So Lin Warlord of Manchuria. If imperialistic Japan has any intention of ever being the champion of the dark and colored races she has failed up to now. So let it be known. How Negroes can arrive at such a conclusion I fail to understand. Japan seems to be just as reluctant to yield or give up her special privileges (Jusicial Capitulations, extraterritorial rights, her commercial privileges, etc.) as the most imperialistic white nations.
I am a great admirer of the Hon. Marcus Garvey, and I think that all exponents of Garveyism should make their arguments correspond to, and consistent with the philosophy of Marcus Garvey. Marcus Garvey has the greatest outlook, scops of knowledge, and information on the history of Negroes and Negro affairs of any other living Negro or Ethiopian in the world. I want to see, and hear educated Negroes give uneducated Negroes the correct viewpoint, information and teaching. Any Negro who is not prepared to do that should leave it to Mr. Garvey and Editor Brown. Those two, and others.
In speaking of the war generals of Japan, I would not call Gen. Nori. Norge, Gen. Qku, Okue, etc. Tell the Negro the truth. Do not fool him. If those people who wish to teach the Negro the history of (Hayt) Haiti cannot afford to tell the whole truth about the Haytian people, leave it alone.
What do I mean? I dary those dealing with the subjects to give the correct information about the people de couleur and Toussaint's fight with them. Their treachery to the once I deny any of them to give the true story of one Gue Rigou. I do not wish to be forced to discuss the things in the white panes. I want to do it in The Negro World.
offers that personality of good fellowship is valued by an education of kindness.
To teach a people means to encourage, let dragon first, and leave it here to be used for the what denudes, edifies, educates, and binds which the people might suffer to stare between them and dragon.
To learn leadership is to answer the latter one of the questions. When God threatened to destroy the people of Israel and raise himself another people, Moses offered to die in their stead, so earnest was he that God spared the people.
When will the Negro become race conscious like the other races of the world is something hard to predict? Mr. Blackman, how many of you are willing to have and show brotherly love and manhood to Africa? The Negro, especially the educated one, is always ready to sympathize with the other races than his own; ready to help other races rather than his own thereby proving to the world that he is half human.
No longer should we remain saddened with the petting of the white race because they only pet us to keep us satisfied, so that they can use us as they wish. Now we see it plain; but they see that the Negroes are becoming wiser and wiser. They are trying to press us tighter and tighter in order to make us turn back. But there is no turning back for the awakened Negroes. The way is too bright. We are who are loyal and faithful to the cause see a shining light; and we are bound for the light, caring not what the people say, and what we are going to meet on our way. We are going on hoping to have a vision that will mean freedom for the black peoples of the world; men and women with a determination to go on until they make their vision a reality. To such men and women we give our financial support. The time for action is "now," while the thought takes hold upon us, and while we have the desire, to do for ourselves; by so doing set an example to all other Negro communities.
Let us begin to pool our interests,
and begin, to rear such monuments
to the Negro achievements, in the
field of business that will guarantee
our economic future; as well as will
earn for us the respect of the other
people of the other races of mankind.
To the Editor of The Negro World:
Please let me add my little quotes to those of the millions of the newly annexed Negro for the wonderful sufferings of the African people in the recent imprisonment of our great leader, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, who is daily showing the way for the betrayment of the race. We are with our great leader in and out of prison. His doctrine of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, has caught the world afire. The imprisonment of a new Negro for a huddy cause does not in any way impede our progress—our worry is for the redemption of Africa and a Government of our own ideals. The imprisonment of the Hon. Marcus Garvey makes him a marguer, and is yet another stopping stone to our future success. The chances are that you may be sent to jail again the Hon. Marcus, but our faith in you shall never fail. For the principles of Justice and for the rights of humanity you have been ridiculed by your own, and by others by misrepresentation. This was seen at the convention August 1, 1929. The light the Hon. Marcus is putting up is a selfish one, but for the betrayment of 400 million, Negroes—it is universal. God is our Commander and the Hon. Marcus is our Captain. We shall follow with the Red, Black and Green until Africa redeems her ancient glory to her sons and daughters at home and abroad.
Thanking you for your courtesy in
giving publicity to this.
Respectfully yours,
GEORGE R. FOOT,
Member Div. 18, Colon.
$100 for Best Student Paper;
$100 for School
The Commission on Interracial Cooperation, with headquarters at 100 Palmer Blidg, Atlanta, Ga., announces the offer of a cash price of $100 for the high-school pupil-submitting the best paper on "America's Tenth Man", and a prize for the like amount for the school making the best use of the Commission's "Tenth Man" project. The content is national in scope and an pupil of high schools and junior high schools are eligible to compete. It closes April 1, 1930. A 5,000 word pamphlet of source material has been prepared by the Commission and will be furnished free to any one interested, together with full information as to the conditions of the contest. The announced purpose of these prizes is to encourage as widely as possible the study of the Negro past in American history, which, according to the Commission, is much more interesting than is generally supposed. It is believed that more study will be helpful to the children of both races, promoting more intelligent and objective attitudes, for the sides, and developing more some prize of race on the basis. The Commission, along the cooperation of high school principals and teachers, and also fellow correspondents from people who may be interested.
Temperance was a baggage. Then begins the chapter of Lena, and the current of my chapter will be grievously obstructed. Not because I shall lack the 'elars', but that my mind will be dialogued from the channel in which it is now running. Why? Because of the pull of meedon man, called the public. Doublets the attraction of the public has all times some effect on a Writer's mind, but when it comes too near, it becomes an impediment. Then it is constantly mating its own claims, and what it claims from the writer are nothing but its own thoughts. An immense force of suggestion from the outside thus keeps exerting an insidious influence on his pen. We all say that we are determined to ignore this, but acknowledgement lurks in the very vehemence of our assertion.
"The fact of the matter is, that in the auditorium of literature, the Public occupies the Royal Box; and it is impossible to get rid of this fact when sitting down to write. You may ask: Why want to get rid of it at all? The point requires consideration. The event has no doubt proved that Kaldas w. es. his Megha-duta (the Cloud Messenger) for the world at large. Had it been for a particular class then, with that class, the Megha-duta would have met its end on the same funeral pyre. But the thing that we call the Public did not, in the time of Kaldas, sit so close to the stage. Had it done so, it would have been very much in the way of the latter audiences coming in procession through the centuries.
"The public of today is a definitely crystallized portion of the generality of men. Within it there are hardened into clots the politics, the social system, the religious beliefs, the special tastes and inclinations, and what not, of the modern man. It may confidently be asserted that its demands are not the same as will be the demands of the next century. But it is none the less vociferous in its plaudits and its castigations. Moreover, even within the narrow confines of the present time, the duration of its praise of blame is grimeral. The idea that King Public rejects today, but it proclaims tomorrow, loud-voiced, as if it had been all along its very own cause, can afterwards ridiculously jest about, a thing, which only a while ago caused us to choke with a sacred emotion, oblivious to cause the history of -its erstwhile tears has already been forgotten. This Public was brought into being in its business quarters when, round the shops and godowns of the East India Company, the City of Calcutta reared its head one day. And we are to accept this market crowd of a public in truly representative of the world of men, merely because of its numbers?
"When we acknowledge a poet as Poet, it implies at least, this recognition, that his words are our words. So it is best to leave a poet alone to say his say, that he may the more easily speak for all of us. Let us not drift into the habit of according value to a message merely because, by jumbling together the favorite sentiments for the time being of a particular crowd, it may have succeeded for theponce in causing their hydra-heads to nod in multitudinous approbation. Let us rather cultivate the courage to remember that, in the arithmetic of literature, eye often proves to be more than a thousand." Since literature represents the realm of expression in aiding memorization, it is all the more important to struggle to be free. These that drift with the public tastes will not create literature but only bibbles. Literature and leadership will need to stand one, against the many, and both require the will to win.
Hampton Institute
Hampton Inst., Va. - The religious Passion Play at Oberammergern will be one of the high spots of the fourth annual European tour to France, Belgium, Holland, England, and Germany, of the travel-titty party conducted under the auspices of Hampton Institute.
The religious Passion Play, depicting the Passion of Our Lord is given but once in eight years, and the opportunity offered by the Hampton tour to Oberammergern makes possible a visit under most favorable conditions.
The party this year will sail from New York on June 18, returning July 23. The itinerary includes visits to Roen, Amela, which schedules also a trip to the battlefields of the World War, Brutusia, and Amstelvam, which includes the life of Martin Stanting at Colome the party will go through the Rhine Valley by boat and then to Paris for ten days. Vervilles and Marmalades are to be reached by motor from this city. The trip to Oberstammann includes two trips to Marmalade with attendance all the Taconic Play, July 9.
His next venture was a trip to Springfield, Illinois. While there he found it necessary to enter a battle royal with four contenders. Spurred by great hunger and strained circumstances, Jack won this by knocking out all four of the contenders. This battle gave him confidence in himself.
The Black Panther Comes Back Again
Would you believe it? The Grand Old Man of the Glove Slinger's Union returns to the old trade, this Wednesday evening, when he will swap walls with one Andrea Castana, at the Bronx Coliseum at popular prices. I think this was, the fellow that Harry met in Mexico not so very long ago and lost in a foul, as they say. Well, let's hope that this bout turns out to be something worth while.
Harry has a good opportunity to become the Black Menace he once was, if he steadies himself and fight; instead of holding. He should make up his mind to either or drop out of the racket for keeps. He should not resort to stalling and just merely trying to stay the limit with an opponent.
The best way for him to do so is to deliver the poison as soon as possible. If he does this he will be in the limelight once more, as a heavyweight contender for championship honors.
Kid Chocolate Meets Herman Silverberg
On Tuesday evening boxing fans will have ah opportunity of getting another load of Chocolate, and believe me most of the boys do not mind if they get Chocolate for breakfast, dinner and supper, as, on either occasion, it is generally served "Hot." The Chocolate, on this occasion will be served with Silverberg flavoring. This same Silverberg gave the Kid quite some trouble the last time out; and it has been stated that Herman intends taking the Chocolate out of the Kid, and leave him just another Cuban boy, who once was great. Well that has to be done, and believe me it takes a good man to do it; and I don't think Herman has a chance, although one never can tell what will happen when two men face each other to do combat.
No doubt there will be quite a crowd on hand to witness this affair as the soldier has been booked for three big shots at the Garden, and therefore has to make a good showing as he may lose his drawing power.
Don't Let the Old
We crave more star bouts in and around town.
Boxing is losing its interest on account of such poor cards. There are a few head-liners that I would like to see in action against good opponents:—Harry Smith, middleweight; La Rosa, lightweight; Baby Face Quinteno, featherweight.
Where is Al Brown these days?
Ruby Bradley, Black Bill, Baby Joe Gans, Canada Loe, Harry Smith, flyweight, Young Kid Singh?
Come on promoters trot "6m" out, and give the Jans a good show; for they need, and crave Kid Chocolate action.
Kid Chocolate is doing his bit, why not let the other fellows do theirs. We have had enough of these "has-beens." There evidently is known too much about the same to make a decent showing.
Asthma So Bad
She Was Hopeless
Expected to Die. Got Well Quickly.
No Sign of Asthma New.
Folks whose asthma or bronchial cough seems almost hopeless will be tired to know how Mrs. M. Bugnett, 123 N. Noble St., Indianapolis, regained health. She says:
"I suffered with asthma for years. Three years ago I became, as bad I ever had, far read about Xarry, and got a bottle. I didn't get any way to crying it, but I did and remembered almost it since. I regained energy and had never had a day of asthma since."
Alphonse Chisen, a good colored welter-weight, put up a wonderful fight Saturday night. Nov. 30, at the Olympia A. C. He is one of the few American colored fighters that goes in there determined to win, and does not stall or allow the other fellow, who is generally a white boy, to take the lead away from him. Chisen can hit and has a good defence. The boy he fought was no slouch either. This was an eight-round affair, and Alphonse took at least six of the eight rounds, and received a well earned decision. On the same card was Leo ("One Punch") Williams.
Don't make me laugh for if Leo has only one punch he must have left it in the old country. Maxie Rosenbloom made him look like a faded illly to ready to blow out. This boy can't fight at all; and how in the world he got tagged "One Punch" is a mystery to me and a lot of others.
Listen! Loo has the nerve to have embalanced on his bath-robe, a large ferocious lion, which would imply that he is a dangerous man. Ha! Ha! How funny? The bird could not scare a mouse, which goes to show that these colored fighters that are sometimes called: "Tiger" "Wolf" and "Wild Cat" "Toothless" "Gorilla" etc. are only false paraders. "Tiger" Flowers surely fought like a tiger, as those who fought him will testify.
Say, boys! If a tiger in reality was to drop around one of these clubs when "Tiger" Payne is fighting he would probably hang his head in shame and leave the place cold.
I would suggest that some of these would be fighters leave town and go out in the sticks or woods with the rest of their family, and put up a fight. They will probably learn something from their comrades; of the real form in regards to how to be savage, and fight with real animal instinct.
Let's Have the
Come on, let's have the rest of the fightweight elimination bouts and get the thing over with.
Jeter seems to be winning. Is it because Bill eliminated Eugene Hunt the big ace? Be yourself, this French boy just received one of them join up breaker; and got in the lead.
He had no more right being in the elimination bouts, then you or I. "So send Bradley and Walgreens to bat, so we will know who is to face Bill in the final shot.

Then here he journeyed to Chicago, where he engaged in a battle with a fighter known as Klenedike. In this fight Jack was beaten but he wada a considerable sum - money all Jack had to pay. Notices of Jack always remained an ardent race horse.
Racket Get Slow
OLYMPIC A C SATURDAY NIGHT
Bemmy Schwartz of Baltimore, who clashes with Bemmy Tish in the semi-final of the four all-star tens at the Olympia Saturday night, has appeared four times in Garden bouts. Tish is a former National Guard bantam champion, but outgrew the class. Vincent Serici and Joey La Gray are the finalists.
The New Book On Jack Johnson
The recent book published on the life of Jack Johnson, in and out of the ring, is one of wide interest. No doubt, a lot of people have read of Johnson's victories, and his many troubles the world over. But you will be surprised to read of the many adventures he has had; how great sums of money have come to him without the asking; the various business ventures he has entered into, and made wonderful success.
These books are being released through The Negro World's office, and you can secure one by becoming a subscriber to our paper for one year.
On another page of this paper you will find advertisements giving you all the details. I enjoyed the book immensely, and I know you will too; so vail yourself of the opportunity of securing one, and learn the real Jack Johnson as he was."
"Gorilla" Jones Knocks Out Testo in 6 Rounds
We were glad to hear of "Gorilla" Jones' knock-out victory over Niek Testo.
This bout took place in Ahron, O. last Tuesday. There was a crowd on hand to witness this slamming fight. Jodes was on the short end of the money, as most of the Ahron fans thought Testo would take him without much trouble, but it was easily noticed during the first round that Jones was in there to do things up brown. As he was fast and accurate in his right shorts, he almost had Nick out on the stretcher in the third round, but the belt gave him. Coming up for the fourth Tento was still shaking. In that round Jones merely toyed with his prey and sat him nice for the slamming.
This victory brought Jones a return go with Jackie Fields, Wetterweight champion. They will meet in Boston, December 13th.
After promoters of the new Cotton club of Cicero had looked the field over Walter Barnes, youngest orchestra conductor, and his Royal Creolans were signed up for a year with what is said to be the largest salary ever paid a Race cafe band.
Barnes and his 12 poppy kids ran away with honors at the sold out encored on every selection and showed all kinds of new stunts. Barnes, attired in shimmering gold colored suit, waved a jeweled baton, which had been given him by friends.
This youthful bunch was also given a big ovation Sunday night when

Critic Says 'Blackbirds' Is Best of Musical Shows
By BILLIE SMITH
Lew Leslie's "Blackbirds," which opened at the Adelphi theater. Tuesday night to a capacity house, lived up to its adyance notices—and how! I do not think that I am being overenthusiastic, or that I am influenced to any degree, by the fact that it was a Race production in saying that "Blackbirds" is the best musical show I've ever witnessed—and this includes the memorable "Shuffle-Along." the forerunner of all the present "reviews."
Not a Dull Minute
From start to finish there is not a dull moment, not an instance where it slows up, or where the audience was not almost wildly receptive. In fact, there were so many encores that the performance was a great deal longer than scheduled.
Adelaide Hall, scintillating star of the show, gives a performance which marks her as one of the greatest artists in the business. And by "artist" I mean just that, as the songs she sang and the dances she danced were, each one, fashing jewels of their kind. She loses nothing by a comparison with the late Florence Mills.
Alda Ward, trim and vibrant, singing "I Can't Give You Anything But Love, Bovey," with Lewis Cole, stands out as second only to the great Adelaide. These two "talented" ones in the same show seem almost too much for one's money.
There are many utterly delightful parts of the show that it is exceedingly difficult to enumerate them. The travesty on "Porgy" to the tune
Knoxville Crushed Simmons U. 19-0 in Thanksgiving Game
Knoxville, Team — Plunging and passing, down the field, Knoxville College Bulldogs completed the 1920 football season with a 19-0 victory over Simmons University of Louisville in the annual Turkey day fracas. Knoxville's offensive attack was the best displayed this year by the team and evoked the Simmons back time after time. Knoxville made the victory first down to the military seven.
Touchdowns were scored by Sanford, crashing through center from they closed their engagement at the Savoy ballroom.
Mr. Reed, manager of the elaborate Colton club, is displaying the new vogue of color by engaging an entire South, sides revue under the direction of Lucius Venable. Brown and McGraw, Mae Alix and others are doing specialties.

of the r. St. Louis Blues, and a bit of Gershwin's Rhapsody of the same "color," and accompanied by Cecil Mack's "Blackbird" choir, was better than "Forgy" ever dared to be. And that's saying something. The number had a sort of cathedral-like beauty set to a low-down blues rhythm; a sort of exquisite mixture of jazz and the classics.
Dancers Score
And then, there were, the Berry Brothers with their maniacal feet. Those boys doing Bill—Robinson's alabar dance are a riot, and nothing less. "Snakehips" Earl Tucker, the boy with the sinuous middle, dethings with his body and feet that are hard to believe.
One of the arly, very highlights was the infinitable Johnny Hudgins—he of the crimson mouth, and wordless songs. Johnny sings but doesn't make a sound. I kept wanting to hear him make some kind of noise, but he never does—but is he eloquent? Some of the jokes are old, some new, but most all of them funny. This is true also of the scenes, one of which has whiskers a yard long—the grave yard skit. But it went over with a crashing bang. And I must not forget to mention the poker skirt with Blu McAllister. Tim Moore, Mantan Moreland and some other highly amusing fellows.
Miss Hall in the Diga Diga Do number, with the entire beafteened and wriggling thorus back of her, gave me at thrill that I shan't forget for a long time. It is a barbaric number with a jungle tune that makes your blood pound. Don't miss "Blackbirds"!
the twenty-five yard line in the first half, and by boys, who caught a long pass from Hubbard over the goal line; and by Tree Johnson, who snagged another of Hubbard's passes and ended twenty-five yards to cross the line.
While much of the game was played in Simmons Territory, the Kentuckians, who last week recorded on Wilberforce and held the powerful Ohioans to the low score of 18-5, threatened to score a couple of times, but the K. C. line did not even bend in holding the ball for downs.
No write-up of the game can overlook the wonderful playing of Theodore Gross, Knoxville quarterback, who reeled off fifteen, twenty, and twenty-five yards their time to put the Tennessee within scoring distance. Sanford at fullback played his best game of the year, gaining many yards through the line. Hillard, fast halfback, also must be mentioned, for his speedy running; while Cary and Davis did their share of ground gaining. Hubbard, with his accurate passes and kicking, was largely responsible for Knoxville's large score.

Los diversos grupos de la gran familia humana parecen haber llegado al punto en que deben toniar una u otra determinación—subsistir o perecer. Todo pueblo, toda fación conciente se ha competrado de esta situación y por ello notamos la lucha a muerte entre las diferentes razas de Europa y de Asia. En el estudio minucioso de estos acontecimientos vemos que el mundo que habitamos ha sido objeto de grandes cambios desde su creación.
De acuerdo con la historia sagrada Dios creó el universo y todo lo que en el se encierra, delegando su autoridad en dos seres humanos creados a su imagen y semejanza. Desde la epoca de esos dos seres primitivos, la familia humana se ha ido multiplicando y en donde teniamos solamente dos personas que ejercieran su autoridad, tenemos hoy dia millones de puillones reclamando autoridad y posesión del mismo mundo.
Cuando los colónizadores del nuevo mundo desearon posesionarse de esas tierras, vieron que una raza aborigen y débil se interponía a su paso. Lo que con esa raza hicieron es un ejemplo práctico de lo que volvera a acontecer a los pueblo débiles del universo en cualquier época, toda vez que los grupos fuertes adquieran la posición de dominar todas las situaciones. Ellos entonces no han de permitir que los grupos débiles se interpongan a sus caprichos.
Acontecimientos de tal naturaleza han preocupado la mente del negro conciente, y con el sano propósito de prevenir el desarrollo de los mismos en su contra, se inspiró en la fundación de una institución universal cuyos principios, defendidos con la tenacidad que requieran las circunstancias, le ha de convertir en fuerte evitando de ese modo su exterminación en el porvenir. Los vanidosos son el mayor obstáculo que nuestro elemento tiene en su camino de progreso. Nos dicen que debemos estar conformes con nuestra condición actual; que no debemos pensar en la constitución de una nacion propia; que no debemos perseguir la unificación de la raza, pero que debemos depender del buen deseo de los demas para la solución de nuestros problemas.
Esa actitud la consideramos mas que peligrosa y es nuestro deber advertir a la raza universalmente las consecuencias funestas de esa clase de direccion, la cual se propone hacer creer al negro que todo se arreglara, sin tener el que esforzarse por mejorar su condición económica y política. Los que tenemos tal presentimiento de nuestro futuro, nos apresuramos a inspirar mayor determinación entre nuestro pueblo, estando en el pleno convencimiento de que-solamente por medio de esta apreciación, nos veremos en posición de conquistar nuestros derechos, y en vez de una raza en camino de su exterminación, seremos en el futuro una raza formada por hombres preparados para subsistir en un mundo de constantes intrigas.
Unión y armonia entre nuestro elemento es hoy dia nuestro mayor anhelo. Formando un haz prepotente de nuestras fuerzas aun divididas, podremos pilotear nuestra nave de aspiraciones a puerto seguro, a través de los mares de dificultades y oposición que halllemos en nuestro curso, humanos para convertirse en la mas poderosa de los sigios; cuando notamos que la raza amarilla haeć mayores esfuerzos con el mismo propósito, llegamos a la conclusión de la seriedad de la situación en cuanto a nuestro propio grupo, respecta.
Si hemos de estacionarnos permitiendo a los demás llevar siempre las tiendas del carro del progreso, llegará el tiempo en que por medio de su ambición seremos abandonados en el azaroso camino de nuestra existencia, en donde tendremos que tomar alguna determinación si hiemos de subsistir. La direccion de nuestro pueblo en el presente debe estar capacitada para colocarle en una posición de prosperidad. Con tal inspiración nos esforzamos para adquirir no solamente la consideración sino la felicidad que es alienable a todo ser humano.
Mayor Walker Compliments N. Y. Tuberculosis and Health Assn. On Its Twenty-fifth Anniversary
Complimenting his fellow New Yorkers on their admirable share in the reduction of the tuberculous death rate in this city within recent years, Mayor James J. Walker today sent a proclamation to the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association relative to their present Christmas Seal Sale.
"The present campaign is of special significance, marking as it does, the twenty-fifth anniversary of the birth of this compassionate organization," wrote Mayor Walker. "Birthdays tempt us to retrospection, and it is fortunate that inclusion or仰奖 will aid review the past twenty-two years with an earnest consideration. That reward needed will be an worthy gift to society."
not only the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association can be proud, but of which every citizen of the city who has made possible, the work of this organisation through the annual Christmas Seal Sale can likewise be proud.
"It is, therefore, a great pleasure and honor for me to endorse this campaign and wish every success to this truly wonderful work. I know my fellow citizens will share with me this sentiment and will prove their devotion to public good through the purchase of Christmas Seals this year as they have always done in the past."

Digesta de empaquetado como da alterativa y manobras dispensadas de la manta vira escuela, con Moscos como centro, docedilha el Soviet a empaquet proclamador de acordia gana poder fin a la contra-versión sobre la propiedad del favr-carril oriental de China. Las dos ultimas semanas registraron operaciones moscovitas en pleno territorio matchu. Ate el avance de los bolsheviks las desorganizadas tropas chinas ratacledieron casil sin luchar. Parecian los invagores ruos en vipera- de una campañaarrolladora, de limites poco claros. Al fin, recordose que la republica del Soviety y la de China son signatarias del pacto Kellogg.
De Washington-partió la apelación, no poco retardada, a las dos cancillerias, recordándoles su adhesión al pacto antigugrero. Y aunque se mantiene una resa sospechosa en Moscuo, y la prensa bolshevkii la toma atuid de que la intervención del secretario Stimson en tardia y ya en立院, en vista de las negociaciones directas entre los rojos y el gobierno provincial de Mukden, esta aplicación, del pacto Kellogg tiene importancia excepcional. De hecho puede ser la consagración práctica de su eficacia o su definitivo despresstigio.
Por de pronto, este apelación directa de la Casa Blanca al gobierno del Kremlin, pone de relieve singular la paradigma situación de las relaciones diplomaticas, entre"los Estados Unidos y Rusia. Washington no ha reconocido, ni es probable reconoce por ahora, el régimen comunista. Y con todo, la representación de ese régimen aparece junto a la de la Union en varios pactos internacionales de-resonancia e importancia mundial. ¿Como interpretar esta dualidad de actitudes? Precisamente en esa falsa posición de los Estados Unidos esta la fuerza moral del gobierno de Moscow en cada contacto diplomatico de los paises.
- Ahora el - Soviet esta ganando tiempo antes de responder resuelamente a la apelación de Washington. Sus delegados negocian con el gobierno de Mukden, bajo la complaciente mirada del Japon, que algo ganara en la solución del conflicto chino-ruso. - Y la más funda impresa impressione ser de completo optimismo. Rusia no tiene nada que ganar con una campaña invasora en Manchuria, China, dividida por la guerra civil, desea un arreglo satisfactorio siquiera provisional. El Japon será fácil de contentar con ventajas económicas en la región en dispinta. La una posición difícil es la de las grandes potencias occidentales: y especialmente de Estados Unidos.
Ante el resto del mundo ellas son la garantía de la paz, una paz encuadrada en el marco de influencias trazado por los grandes pueblos. Y precisamente cuando más persistente es aqu la actitud de alejamiento y repudiación política del Soviety del extremismo republicano chino, sus fuerzas chocan, maniobran, negocian y acabarán por entenderse, po ya sin intervención de las potencias: sino en contravención de un flamante protocolo presentado a la adhesión mundial por el gobernador americano. Esta es la verdadera novedad del enisioso.
Es sólo una enojas y antiquisima cuestion fronteriza, agravada por ciertos aspectos económicos y estratégicos, entre naciones limitrofes. Pero el hecho de ser Rusia una de ellas, le da caracter excepcional ante la observación internacional. ¿Cómo, se dicen los pueblos, los bolshevilias, excluidos, repudiados, desconocidos por los Estados Unidos, continuan su politica exterior, resuelven sus problemas independiente, viven, se agitan, progresan? Las tentativas para restar su dinamismo a esa realidad, sin ceder francamente a sus imposiciones insalvables, el reconoceiniento del Soviet, han fracasado ruidosamente. No sería de extrañar que sucediera ahora lo mismo.

En el queso de la habitura habitarias del Cogumelo se llama el desfile la habitura de la habitura de la conversación o no de la construcción del canal a través de Nietagua.
Sí enlarga, caduana con que no se toma ninguna desfile definitiva en la habitura hasta que la consida de ingressos del ejercicio que actualmente está evitando exploraciones de estudio no presente el informe correspondiente sobre la materia.
Los que estan por la construcción de dicho canal dicen que so necesita para complementar el canal de Panamá, que habrá llegado a su máximo de capacidad dentro de velinte años. Agregan que el canal de Nicaragua permirita más rápido movimiento a las flotas de la marina de guerra e impediría también el ciere del tráfico en tiempo de guerra al quedar desmantelado un canal.
Los que se oponen a la construcción opinan que la capacidad del canal de Panamá puede ser duplica o triplicada poniéndolo en actividad de noche y tal aumento de tráfico podría ademas duplicarse con un gasto relativamente poco costoso en compueras.
Agregan también que un solo canal seria más fácilmente defendido, pues que dos implicarian la division de fuerzas.
Estos manifestan además que el canal por Nicaragua seria 184 millas más larga que el canal de Panama, que tiene 49 millas de largo el que es atravesado en 21 horas, mientras que la travesía por el de Nicaragua seria de 64 horas y modía.
Cada plan de canal comprende la utilización del lago. En el canal de Panama se usa el lago Gatón, por una siete millas, mientras que el lago de Nicaragua tiene unas 42 millas.
El informe sobre el tráfico por el canal de Panama establece que ha aumentado, sentando nuevos precedentes durante el año fiscal que terminó el 30 de junio, tanto en el totnelaje de los buques que lo atravesaron como en los derechos, recolectados y la carga transportada.

Mientras que en apariencia los cargos que se hacen contra McLemore son de tener una agencia de empleo sin la correspondiente licencia, los detectives que lo arrestaron declarar que algunos cargos mucho más gráves se harian en breve plazo contra el presunto estatidor, esperándose solo para ello en completar la investigación que se está conduciendo actualmente.
Las autoridades declaran que McLemore la prometido *a* sus clientes sudamericanas que después del pago de ciertas sumas empezarian a recibir salarios graduados.
El arresto de McLemore se llevó a cabo después de las sospechas que contra el despertaron sus deseos de interesar en su proyecto a la señorita Adela Bermúdez, hija de un cosechero de café de Nicaragua. La policía ha interrogado también al señor Juio Serrador, peruan de nacionalidad y director cinematográfico, quien ha sido, sin embargo, dejado en seguida en libertad por no encontrarse, evidencia alguna contra el. El señor Serrador inicia sombrio nombrado director cinematográfico de los propuestos estudios de McLemore.

THE PEN
Here is the pen with which to write—
all things, both kind and true;
And if we use it for the right,
a great ink will do.
If we use words false and wrong,
it will use its power for aye.
For only true words last for ages
long;
The bad pen will perish in a day.
The pen is mightier than the sword
So little pen, write words kind and
true.
Never wound or sting our fellowmen.
Your power lies in the good you do;
Go on bringing joy and good news
to me.

On Sunday, Dec. 1, the Juvenile Cadet Corps of New-York City held their monthly Garvey's Day program at 3 p.m. All rendered their parta to the best of their ability. Those that participated in the musical part of the program must be given special credit. There was some fine speaking too, from Mr. Roy Rollick, one of the officers of that department, Mr. Beckles, also one of the officers, Captain Harris and Captain Thompson.
The weekly message of the Hon. Mercury Garvey came insistently said by Master Freddie Thompson. The evening was enjoyed by all. The juveniles promise better things the next time.
in the olden days anyone could be a bell ringer. Sometimes a citizen had to pay for the privilege and if a man abused the honor he had to pay a fine. In All Saints Church at Hastings these words were written: "This is a beafy that is free. For all those that civil be. And if you please to chieve the ring. It is a very pleasant thing."
All through history from the 10th century, which was the golden age of hells, chimes have called out to people their cheerful message—usually telling a story. For ex-
All through history from the 16th century, which was the golden age of bells, chimes have called to people their cheerful messages—usually telling a story. For example, when the old year was departing the bells would be toiled in madness for the dying year—then when 12 o'clock and struck the merry peals shouted forth their welcome to the new year. And it is interesting to realize that the cup given for prizes in sports or deeds of bravery is in reality a bell inverted. Truly the bell has always been a happy symbol and bell ringing—suggests—picturesque times. It seems fitting that on the gay little Christmas seal for 1929 a bell ringer should be portrayed. He is tagged at the heavy bell, ringing in health, a joy in living, for the new year.
Each year the seal is decorative and brings its message of health at

A black government will stand to protect.
The sons and daughters of God's Eyes.
Than whites nations will mourn
The day that they were born.
For God will help the black man win.
The battle for right and not for sin.
And Garvey's propaganda will be
An outfit for to set us free.
Doris Simmons, Newark, N. J.
Mr. Garvey is the greatest leader the world has ever known. So let us rise boys and girls, and run with patience the race that is set before us. Let us put the bat to the ball, and don't let it fall until we have reached the African soil.
A Song
Gone are the days when
My heart was young and gay;
Gone to some place where it
Will never stay;
For our leader tells us so:
That there is a place for you and I
For I hear Africa calling!
All around the world.

the Christmas season to remind people that sickness can be prevented. So well known have these stamps become indeed that it is interesting to realize they originated in a small way only twenty-two years ago. In 1907, the first seals were sold in this country to help build a tukercular pavilion in the state of Delaware, Miss Family P. Bussell had read about a portal clerk in Denmark whose idea of decorating Christmas mail with the stamps to secure money for a children's hospital in Copenhagen, and whose efforts the sum of $3,000 was raised that first year. From a small beginning then the seal sites have grown and flourished every year until today this cheerful method of raising money is an annual event without which the Christmas season would not be complete.
Thanks to this tiny Christmas seal, state after state has been organized to attack tuberculosis with a scientific program. Together, led by the national body, they have brought into existence nearly all of the present-day community machinery that combats this disease. Money rushed by the Christmas seal is not sufficient to build and conduct hospitals, clinics, open air schools and other necessary measures, so the tuberculosis association's program engages the community and of brousing public opinion to the need for institutions that can be maintained, by official agencies, state, county, munitelpat or federal. The 'Christmas seal' campaign is

businesses, libraries, museums, and other institutions, professional societies, and public organizations.
The reader should note the annual seal sales have always been used in the community where the soils were purchased. Only the best per cent is contributed to the National Tuberculosis Association which sells an a clearing house, as in other words, as the man in the big wheel of co-ordinated health work. In this way a feeling of personal and proprietary interest is created in those who support the sales.
And this support is stupendous. Advertising agencies, motion picture theatres, editors, publishers, woman's clubs, business men's clubs, parent-teacher associations, other unions and lodgementers such generous contributions to the national and local tuberculosis associations that without their help, the programs could never be so successfully carried through.
Indeed that loyal help given by rich-and-poor, children and grown-ups, individuals and groups, is of more permanent benefit than the money itself. It for means that all people have been made aware of the fact that sickness prevention is possible—that health is purchasable. The educational value of the *seal* is intestimable.
This year again the seal carries its message of health throughout the country. Every one in December has a chance to be a bell ringer as in the olden-days. "Ring in a year of health with the merry Christmas sett!" is the story that goes out into the world on millions of letters and packages this joyous Christmas season.

mation to rise, irrespective of what the world thinks.
With the coming of the Xmas season of good will, good cheer, and good fellowship, let us turn our thoughts within. Let us qualify to the sovereign many of God, of Christ. Let us have His insidious will, and His impelling personality; then this race of Negroes, united in heart and hand will be hale to brush aside every barrier, till finally we stand masterful triumphant and serene—victors in every conflict, beneath the sheltering shadows of a powerful, benevolent, and majestic government of Negroes, for Negroes, and by Negroes, in our fatherland, Africa.
With best wishes I have the honor to be.
