Many were connected with the church through the influence of that oer greatest monument, which will live in it oer young People's Juvenile Club, organized 20 years ago, which as an auxiliary to the church has been of inestimable benefit both spiritually and financially. Easter services were fittingly observed at all the churches, and the people seemed to have entered into the spirit of the redirection of the Christ. Excellent music was rendered and the congregation contributed liberally. We regret to learn that Harry Junior, who for many years has been janitor of the Westchester, has resigned his position and that a white janitor will now take his place. Such a position as that occupied by Mr. Junior was worth having and we hate to see it fall into the hands of a white man. Mr. and Mrs. Junior now reside at 95 Union avenue.

See ee el possible to get_ many Negroes to work iull time. In order to meet this situa- tion, the standards of living for the Negro must be cused. He must be made to want better huines. more con torts, some reading material, better food, better clothes. To this end there must be a raising of sindards through the better training of the maxsex of Negroes. “Li the South wants to be iree irom a harvest of crime, 1 is nune too sova to Ucliberately start on a more detinite plan of Negro taming. Last .oi_ all. one ought to say that, regardless of the cconumic improvement, health improve- ment and lessening «i criminality, itis no less than human ts give definite at- tention to this great problem. The very fact that some men are discouraged, that they feel the weight. of this great ignorant mass pressing upon our south- fern life, is all the greater reason why a group of broad-minded educators should honestly face and heroically ad- dress a mecting like this. Log School Must Go. vin order that we may undertake a more aggressive policy, four definite lines of improvenient are demanded. First, among these stands the need_ for a more attractive school equipment, The log school house tor the staining of Negro children is still greatly in evi- dence. “South Carobna has 1,777 school bunldings for Negroes, the average cost of the building and grounds being $246.28. When one remembers that this includes all the buildings in the cities, one sees thatthe average school build- ing.is the merest hut, South Carolina does not stand alone in this regard, 1 visited a large cotton plantation in Kan- sas recently where the plantation owner showed me $90.00 worth of gathered cotton ‘ready for the market, where there were hundreds of Negro children with families. yet when I drove to the Negro. school ‘nouse. a half mile away from the headquarters of this planta- tion, it was such a place as is fitted for the hyusing of horses and cattle. The annual report of education in one of the. states in the South, -speaking of these buildings, says: “The Negro school houses are miserable beyond descrip- tion.

A, ROSERTS, tis,” WE 00 JOB PUNANG: INFORMATION comes from the Middle West that preparations are being made to take a minstrel company, composed of colored performers, to Australia in the near future, and that rehearsals are being held in one of the Michigan cities. Just who is backing the project is a piece of news that has not yet reached New York, but it is hoped that the parties are thoroughly reliable. In recent yeats many colored performers have been lured away from the United States by promoters glib of tongue and possessing the power to draw pretty verbal pictures that so appalled to the imagination of many colored artists that they were enticed to foreign shores only to find conditions entirely different than what they had been represented. It would, therefore, be well for those thinking of leaving with the minstrel company to investigate fully into the reliability of the person or persons sending the show to Australia, as well as go over their contracts carefully with some one who is capable of being able to tell when such an instrument is properly drawn. A bestesting sin of many coloured performers is to sign contracts without reading carefully and understanding all of the provisions contained therein, and then trying to make trouble when they wake up to the terms agreed upon. Performers who foolishly sign contracts which give managers the better off the proposition have no one to blame but themselves. In these days of commercial activity and competition the manager is always going to make a contract to his decided advantage, if possible. So when a performer attaches his signature to a contract which he later finds out to be a one-sided instrument in favor of the manager he should get consure the "party of the first part," but blame himself for having got the worst of the deal. But returning to the proposed tour of the minotel company to Australia There are many reasons why the minotel men should take the proper precaution before leaving this country. For a colored company to go to Australia and strand affects the colored citizens in the United States as well as the colored performers who encounter such bad luck. Race prejudice in England is said to have increased in late years owing to the presence in that country of idle colored actors, who have been compelled to get food and a place to sleep on their wits. Several instances can be cited in which colored performers have been taken to Europe by irresponsible promoters, who have taken barn-storming companies abroad, and upon finding that no money could be realized have left the colored actors to rove about and look out for themselves thousand of miles away Broadway. How some of the penniless performers begged for assistance, while others followed avocations none too creditable is information generally known in theatrical circles. Had these people had their contracts drawn up properly there would have been no need of them remaining abroad. There is very little if any prejudice on account of color in Australia, and the colored singers who have visited that country in years previous have been shown every consideration. The Fink Justice Singers and other colored musical organizations not only made a great impression in Australia along artistic lines, but their deportment off the stage as ladies and gentlemen made for them many friends. Here's hoping that when the minstrel company now rehearsing in the Middle West goes to Australia the members of the organization will so conduct themselves that the people of that country will continue to regard the colored man in America with high favor. Let them follow up the work of the Fisk Jubilee Singers and other colored vocalists instead of tearing down the good impression they have made. YEA BO! CLEF CLUB (INCORPORATED) MANHATTAN CASINO May 23 YEA BO! season with a large bank account as in years gone by.

In the Cleveland Gazette of recent date appeared the following: Many of our people have noticed that "the song shop" at the corner of Ontario street and the Public Square, conducted by Jeroen H. Remick Company, New York City and Detroit, has a notice in their Ontario street window to all self-respecting members of our race to stay out of that "shop." There are 20,000 Afro-Americans in this city and all are "musical." Stay out of that "song shop" until it shows more respect for us. Pass the word along to all you meet. New York and Detroit papers please republish this notice. Instead of the Cleveland Gazette asking New York and Detroit papers to copy it should ask all the colored papers in the country to republish its article. Colored people in the United States are lovers of music and purchase annually hundreds of dollars worth of songs and instrumental numbers. That the Remick Company, the largest music publishing house in the country, gets a large share of our patronage cannot be denied. However, if it does not care to have our nickels and dimes in one city the colored musicians in the other cities should show their loyalty by refusing to buy music from the Remick people. Many white business institutions, as do many white individuals, underrate the value, influence and status of the colored citizens in this country, and the sooner we emancipate them from their peculiar motions about us the better. There is no more effective method of doing this than by withholding the currency of Uncle Sam from their ever-yawning pocketbooks, a receptacle where the color line is entirely forgotten. The Negro press of this country should so organize as to be able to inform the members of the race of all business firms that see fit to discriminate in the various cities. There are times when radical measures are necessary, and a general boycott on all such discriminating concerns would bring them to their senses. "In union there is strength," and it is high time for the Negroes of this country to find out if the saying is full of truth (or meaningless.

CRESCENT THEATRE The two leading acts at the Crescent Theatre the first half of the week were the Whitman Sisters and Pick and James Crosby. The Whitman Sisters—Essie and Alberta—furnish some lively entertainment which consists of dancing and singing, and they make several striking changes in costumes. They have a pick who is quite nimble on his feet. James Crosby has a good single turn. His monolog goes strong and his last songs go stronger. Spartan Girls Get Revenge Two female basketball teams—the Spartan girls of Brooklyn and the Y. W. C. A. quint of Washington, D. C., were principals in an interesting match held Tuesday evening at New Star Casino. The local girls got even with the Washington team for the defeat administered them in the capital city several weeks ago by coming our victorious over the Y. W. C. A. by the score of 6 to 4. A large and fashionable crowd saw the contest, which was aggressively played. Although many pounds lighter than the visitors the Spartan girls made up in agility what they lacked in brawn and managed to make the inside of the baskets the landing place of the ball more often than the Y. W. C. A. quint. At the end of the first half the score stood 4 to 3 in the Spartan Girls' favor. The second half was marred by a dispute over the calling of a foul. Genevieve Harris, right forward of the Spartana, complained that Minnie Sumner, center of the Washington team, had slapped her in the face while stretched outright on the floor. She called a foul, which Referee Holey Douglass seemed inclined to allow until Coach Oliver of the Y. W. C. A. quint registered a protest, the latter contending that a foul should have not been called. After much unnecessary talk between the heads of both teams Coach Oliver took the visitors off the court, but finally returned and finished out the game. Twenty minutes were taken on arrows. Edith Trice, the speedy little left guard of the Spartans, played the star game for her team, and Isadore Kenney and Sylvia Piper did good work for Washington. The line-up. Spartans. Y. W. C. A. G.

Lincoln Giants' News John Lloyd, the heavy-hitting short stop, will captain and manage the Lincoln Giants this season despite his statement last fall that he would not be at the head of the McMahon team. Captain Lloyd expects to have a number of new faces on the team. Redding, Williams and McClellan will do the principal slab work for the Lincolns. Lloyd writes that Redding is in fine shape and will leave Cuba for his home in Atlanta next week. When the big pitcher appears in Harlem he will have on a new Panama hat that will set the natives along 135th street to talking. Lloyd will be in New York within a few days. Rod McMahon has been working hard to secure the lease of Olympic Field, and it is reported that he has managed to get the grounds for another season. Violoncello Recital GIVEN BY...

Announcement Luncheon. On Friday afternoon, April 5, a unique announcement luncheon was given at the home of Miss Dora Cole. 102 West 136th street, announcing the engagement of Miss Dora Cole to Conrad V. Norman. Th affair seems to have been a cleverly arranged plan of Cupid and Innocent guests to be present to meet two strangers. After being presented to the guests of honor, all were invited downstairs to the dining room, where a beautifully decorated table, the handwork of a real artist, greeted eyes of those assembled. The color scheme of those pieces was large, basket of lavender sweet peas was suspended over the center of the table form which hung a bouquet for each of the guests present. Lavender napkin rings, pretty hand painted place cards made by Mr. Goldsborough and Conrad Norman all added a dainty touch to the mass of lavender loveli- A very beautiful menu was served by the caterer, Miss Gertrude Stewart. Just before the dessert course Mrs Gertrude immediately demanded silence. Then in succession, small placards were held up on which were written the following instructions: Draw bouquets. To the hurries of the guests, the silk hats were attached to each pose. Find lavender envelopes under dolls. Deliver to addresses. Open and read aloud, came the next instructions on the placards. The guests obeyed and waited in the room with the envelope "I told you so." The next placard contained the word "What?" A telegram was then read which gave the following information: "Hidden within your favor deep. In secret which will no longer keep." And then came the order to investigate favors. In the little silk bag was found a little lavender heart containing Cupid's proclamation: Know ye all, wherefore the house of Norman, and Dora, daughter of Robert, of the house of Cole, having reached the years of discretion and understanding, seek admission into the State of a trimony. I. Daniel Cupid, Governor of said state, sent me a letter of admission, soon after June fifteenth, nineteen hundred and twelve. Written under my hand and seal on this fifth day of April, nineteen hundred and twelve. (Signed) Daniel Cupid. (Soal). Instructions were next given to open the box, found within the oak. This was done and to the surprise of all was found a small oval-shaped silver frame containing the picture of Miss Dora Cole and Mr. Norman. This seemed to delightfully please each guest and straightway congratulations were showered upon the little toilete. After luncheon each person was given an envelope containing a small red heart cut into five pieces.

But do it with (Kink no more, the greatest best straightening preparation on earth). Kink no more will straighten the kinkiest kind of hair. Think about it—a preparation that all you have to do is apply it on the hair and with little trouble, it becomes straight, not to stay for one day or one week, but to last from six to eight months. Water not nothing one will make it kink again after it has been straightened. Kink-no-more is a wonder work, more lovely than it its work that one can hardly believe their own eyes. It works like magic, and is unique because there is not another preparation that more like it. We offer a reward of $100 for any head of hair the kink-no-more will not straighten.
