Little Thomas Wernham, Son of Mrs. Mabel Wernham, Aspires to be a Minister-His Mother Will Give Free Embroidery Lessons in Emanuel School.
The investigation made by a representative of THE AGE into family conditions in Harlem shows that those who have succeeded best are those who have had a purpose and then directed all their efforts to that end. Those out of work are not particularly fitted for any special line of employment. Many hold positions-of trust and responsibility.
The results are as follows:
A Woman Chef Cook.
Mrs. Rebecca Ridley and her daughter, Mrs. Eather Cousa, have an apartment of six rooms at 280 East 156th street. Mrs. Ridley, a native of Oxford, N. C., came to New York with her children, her husband having died in the South twenty-seven years ago. A lover of her profession as cook, she has risen steadily until now she is a cook chef, with live-cooks under her, at R. C. Bunin's restaurant, 27 William street. Mrs. Ridley's hours are from 9:30 a. m. to 4 p. m., and she does not work on any holidays or Sundays. However, she usually arrives at the restaurant about 8:30 a. m. Mrs. Ridley grows only a mid-day lunch from 11:45 a. m. to 2:30 p. m., but serves between 3:00 and 400 people each day. Her watchword is patience and when anything goes wrong her exclamation is "Bless the Lord." She then proceeds to work as, if nothing had happened. She is a devout church worker. Mrs. Eather Cousa, daughter of Mrs. Ridley, a widow, is a manicure and masseuse, catering to women who are her regular customers. During the summer Mrs. Cousa conducts a summer school, teaching the art of massaging and manicuring to many pupils. Mrs. Cousa and Mrs. Ridley both receive a comfortable income. They pay $14 a month rent for six rooms. Gilson-Ridley a son of Mrs. Ridley, and his wife, Lillian, with an apartment at 141 West 138th street, have one son. Mr. Ridley is a bank messenger, employed at 56 William street. Another son, John, lives in Philadelphia.
Little Tommie Wernham Wants 'to
Preach.
Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Wernham occupy an apartment at 44 West 136th street, and are the parents of a son, Thomas, 9 years. Young Thomas, who attends Public School No. 89, is aspiring to be a minister. Mr. Wernham is a Pulman porter, running between New York and Chicago. Mrs. Wernham took a course in embroidery at the evening school. She is planning to teach the same work free of charge. Last year Mrs. Wernham crocheted fifty-three hand bags, receiving $3 and $4 apiece for them. Mr. and Mrs. Wernham rent out one room, which assists in the rent of $32 each month.
Mrs. Jennie Baynard has four rooms at 4 East 134th street. Her husband died several years ago. With her live three children, Fletcher Baynard, age 23, at present unemployed and having no regular occupation; Miss Eitha Baynard, unemployed, but when working does a normal housework, and Leroy Baynard, 15 years, attending Public School 14. Mrs. Baynard works out by the day.
Mr. and Mrs. Lee Humphries, who reside at 150 West 136th street, own the two private houses, Nos. 343 and 134 West 136th street. The house at 134 is headed to Mrs. Gilman, who takes lodges, among who is Counselor Wilford Smith.

AUGUSTA, Ga., Aug. 4—The death of the Rev. G. A. Goodwin of this city, but for several years past the pastor of Springfield Baptist Church, Greenville, S. C., which occurred on Thursday, July 30, was a great shock to the people of this city and to the Baptists of Georgeta and South Carolina.
He was for many years engaged in ministerial and educational work; was a member of and ordained by the old mother church, Springfield, here in Augusta; was president of the Walker Baptist Institute for several years; and prior to going to Greenville as pastor, was one of the professors in the theological department of Morehouse College, formerly the Atlanta Baptist College, Atlanta, Ga.
It is believed that Prof. Goodwin's death was largely induced by worry, as it was a matter of common report that family relations were not very pleasant. A man of high moral character and of the strictest attitude, the breath of scandal has never in any degree touched his character or reputation, but he has not always enjoyed financial prosperity. With several children to support, it is said that certain of his wife's relatives, more prosperous financially, have assisted in providing for the family. Because of this assistance, it is supposed that the relatives referred to have attempted to dictate as to how Prof. Goodwin's family affairs should be managed: This he objected to. He seemed to have the idea that his wife was in sympathy with her relative's efforts and this caused him to worry.
It was reported not long since that Mrs. Goodwin had entered suit for divorce. If this was true, then it is more than reasonable to suppose that the action hastened his death, as Prof. Goodwin was passionately devoted to his children. There are four of them, George, the oldest and, only son; Jane and Ann, twin girls, named foe an aunt, Mrs. Janie-Burruss, wife of the properous physician, Dr. George S. Burruss, proprietor of the Burruss sanatorium and owner of large realy holdings, and Anna, named for Mrs. Goodwin; and the youngest girl, Enniee. Prof. Goodwin is also survived by a brother, Charles Goodwin, a contractor in tin and iron work, and other relatives.

Special to THE NEW YORK AGE.
CHARLESTON, W. Va., Aug. 4.—Negro Republicans of West Virginia are feeling good these days and they have a very kindly spot in their hearts for Governor C. D. Hatfield. The reason is not far to seek when it is known that more Negroes have been appointed to positions of honor and trust, in this State than in any other State in the Union.
Governor Hatfield is one of the most prominent physicians in the
State. He was Judge of the County Court of McDowell County for years and was head of the State Hospital at Welch, where all classes and all traces recieved treatment. He afterwards was elected to the State Senate, and in the gubernatorial primary he carried every county, except two. A noted orator, he is idolized and revered by the mountainers and worshipped by the Negroes.
He has made the following appointments of Negroes to office: Prof. L. O. Wilson, State librarian; Wilson is the grand chancellor of the Knights of Pythias, and his appointment was made, August 1, succeeding Dr. Saunders.

Besides these there are Negro guards at the State penitentiary; attenants at all asylums; janitors at State House, and attaches at respective state hospitals. The two State educational institutions have Negro residents with the entire faculties and every person on the pay roll belonging to the race. Other appointments will probably be made as opportunity offers.
ALF COSEY SAID TO BE SLATED FOR RECORDER Special to THE NEW YORK ACE.
WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 5.—According to what is taken to be the reliable inside information, the office of Recorder of Deeds will remain vacant until Congress adjourns, after which it is said President Wilson has made a definite promise to appoint Counselor Alfred B. Cosey of Newark to that position.
Counselor Cosey as not dependent upon a second-hand promise from his side partner and friend. "Joe"—Tumulty, the President's secretary. But it can authoritatively be stated that he has this promise direct from the President. A recess appointment will obviate the necessity of a fight for confirmation which the appointment as this time would entail.

ODD FELLOWS SUPREME COURT AND ITS CRITICS
COST OF COURT NOT GREAT
Declares That Morris Administration Should Explain How $167,248 Balance Has Been Spent Charge Waste of Money on Official Organ.
Special to The New York Age.
ATI ANTA, Ga., Aug. 4.—The legislation enacted by the B. M. C. in 1910 at Baltimore, which brought into being, among other things, the Old Fellows' Supreme Court, has been the subject of much criticism because of the reputed expense of operation which was declared by its enemies to be out of proportion to the benefit imposed by the order. It appears that much of this criticism has been traced to influences friendly to the present administration, and which is seeking to discredit the opposition to the re-election of Grand Master Morris.
In fact, it is openly charged that misrepresentations and falshoods concerning the operation of the Supreme Court are being circulated for political purposes by persons who are in office and who want to stay in office. The Chief Justice of the Odd Fellows' Court is Ben J. Davis, editor of the Atlanta Independent. In the issue of that paper of August 1, Chief Justice Davis published an exhaustive recapitulation covering the four years of the Morris administration which was put in office at Baltimore in 1910. The following is the statement as published:
THE TRUTH IS THE LIGHT.
There is a much labored effort in Odd Flower circles fathered and promoted by what is understood as the administration forces to make it appear that the Supreme Court and other Baltimore legislation are responsible for the depletion of the treasury of the G. U. O. O. F. in America. It is here over the country, and especially in less quarters where the Morris influence is prominent, the promo Court, Hritigation and other titleregulations have bankrupted the order.

IDEAL TYPE OF NEGRO BEAUTY
Basic Standard for Racial Beauty May Be Established by Age Contest
INTEREST INCREASING
Correspondent Writes Interesting Letter Suggesting that Contest Be Means of Selecting Ideal American-Negro-Beauty
CONTEST CLOSES SEPT. 21
Awards Will Be Made at Manhattan Casino, Sept. 28, at Opening of the Great Autumn Amusement and Advertising Festival.
It is possible that the Beauty Contest inaugurated by THE AGE will furnish a standard by which the Ideal Type of American Negro Beauty will be fixed. This possibility is an outgrowth of the interest, being developed in this unique exposition of beauty which already has brought in to THE AGE's Beauty Contest editor photographs representing Negro women, all beautiful, of many various types and characteristics, from which will be selected the "Chosen Fifteen" at the Autumn Amusement Festival at Manhattan Casino, September 28 to October 2.
A correspondent, whose letter we are reproducing, has suggested the possibility of this development, and in an interesting manner has set forth his individual idea of the composition of the ideal type of beauty which will best serve as a typical representation of the cosmopolitan beauty of the Negro women, of the United States. Just what racial characteristics should form the basic foundation of the ideal type, how those characteristics may be modified or altered by other racial admixtures, is interestingly set forth by Demond Lewis in his letter, and in conclusion he gives his own idea, as to what should be the physical characteristics of the Ideal American Negro Type.
. Can We Select an Ideal Type?
The following is the letter of Mr. Lewis, in which he sets forth his idea: To the Beauty Contest Editor;
After reading the wonderfully interesting announcement of the Beauty Contest in the last two editions of The Age, and seeing several of the photos published in last week's edition, I became imbued with the idea that here was a great opportunity to select an ideal of American Negro Beauty. This ideal type I conceive to represent the true "Characteristic American-Negro Type." It should become a classical standard, and should be the ne plus ultra of Negro inspiration, character and beauty.
I modestly suggest that the committee that has the important task of selecting and vital task select, a interesting and vital task select, a interesting and vital task select, a distinctly American-Negro type—a basic-type. From this type could, be illustrated in historical and scientific order various fusing and variations from the basis American-Negro type, through the important Negro type, through the Negro element all the Negro element type would include the inverse order mulatto, octoon, quadrur and, as leder erl, that mysterious type which is so enchanting.
An arrangement based on this rough outline would prove interesting, inspiring and wonderfully fascinating to all Americans who want to be a black. Of each type shown there should be suggest in a hive, delicately subtle manner, the various racial influences which are suggestively characteristic.
Suggests Egyptian Type as Basic.
In selecting an nigel American-Negro type as a classic, should we be influenced by the Egyptian or Norwegian standard of beauty? Is not the nigel Egyptian influence, most solidly apparent much neater to the basic American-Negro Ideal? Of course, allowance must be made for the Spirit of the New World, and its importance, such as considerable importance.
In conclusion, should not the ideal American-Negro type have the following physical characteristics? A well balanced and symmetrical head shape, with the features neatly cut with the perforations of being cushioned rather than cast; the forehead broad and slightly expansive; a fine Negro nose with a trace of the Egyptian and a slight aquiline curve; the forehead flattened, and a slightly pointed, and a slightly pointed, round, firm skin; the eyes should be large but slightly elongated, surmounted by a fine brow that is not too sharp, delicately arched; with the marvelously thick chewing of which the Negro rage can be justly proud.
DEMOND LEWIS.
New York-City.
The group of photos reproduced this week are from various sections of the country, and are representative of different types. Interest in the contest is increasing and each mail brings photos which are deserving of a place in any gallery of
beauty. In selecting photos for reproduction an effort is made to have them not only depict various styles of beauty, but also to represent the different states of the Union as far as possible: It should be understood that reproduction in the columns of THE AGE does not mean election by the judges or that the photo will be a prize winner.
There Are No Rules for Contest.
Photos will be received until September 21, when contest closes. A committee of twelve capable and interested men and women will be invited to act as judges and all photos received will be turned over to the judges. No person connected with THE AGE or with the National Amusement Company will have anything to do with making the awards. Any photo of a woman or girl of the Negro race can be sent in. A coupon is printed in this paper for convenience in entering photographs, but its use is not a requirement. Address all photos to the Beauty Contest Editor, THE NEW YORK AGE, 247 West 46th street, New York City. Announcement of the "Chosen Fifteen" will be made by the judges on Monday night, September 28, at the opening of the mammoth Autumn Amusement and Advertising Festival, which is being promoted by the National Exhibition and Amusement Co., for five nights, from September 28 to October 2, at Manhattan Casino, 155th street and Eighth avenue.
Enlarged reproductions of the "Chosen Fifteen" will be on exhibition at the Festival on Thursday night, October 1, and every person attending on that night will receive as a souvenir a handsome folder in which will be printed beautiful half-tone pictures of the entire "Chosen Fifteen."
To each one of the "Chosen Fifteen" will be awarded a solid gold bar pin, suitably engraved.
Award for New York and Vicinity.
THE AGE will offer a special token for the most-beautiful woman or girl who lives in Greater New York or vicinity within a radius of sixty (60) miles, to whom will be presented a solid gold la valliere and neck chain, which will be suitably inscribed.

TUSKERGE, Ala., Aug. 4.—Iasec Fisher, prize writer in national and international essay contests and winner of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch prize for "The Ten Best Reasons Why People Should Go to Missouri," writes "Ten Reasons Why Colored People Should Attend the National Business League at Muskegue, Oklahoma." He says:
Over and above other arguments which come easily to my mind, the following ten reasons why colored people should attend the Business League at Muskegue seem to me "very persuasive."
Because the business league of Negroes which meets there has grown to be the greatest and most accurate clearing house and bureau of information relative to the material progress of the Negro that exists anywhere, if you want to know what the Negro is doing in real "Big Business" you have to get the face of the National Business League. Even the United Consum Bureau have not the rights about the Negro's worth.
2. The National Negro Business League is the gerat business university of the race. Every Negro in business and those who plan to enter it should see this university in session and learn the secrets of business success from colored men and women in many commercial pursuits who have already succeeded, have "delivered the goods," are still delivering them, and doing more business than they can. Because the trip will mean inspiration and encouragement. The largest number of successful colored business men and women ever brought together on North American soil will assemble at Muskogee to tell their stories of arrivals and success. To see and hear these Negroes—these people who but, 50 years removed from slavery, to-day, nevertheless, count

the team to make the ball go through with gladden the heart and encourage the race. Success is stimulating and contagious. It would be a God-send if every colored family carried their children to Muskoka to let them see the beauty of the wilderness and witness one of the bright promises of the better day coming for the race.
4. To see the swifty vanishing, Indians—"The Red: Men of the Plains," many of whose ancestors owned Negro slaves; and to compare the progress of the American Indian with that of the American Negro. Because was the chief minister of Creek Nation and was the headquarters of the United States Agency to the Five Civilized Tribes—the Creeks, the Cherokees, Choctaw, Chickasaws and the Seminoles. The United States Government spend ten million dollars every year to aid many of its Indian wards, to aid many of its Indian wards, to improve their health, legislates to improve their morals, appropriate money to encourage them to habits of thrift and industry and acts as their general guardian. The Negro has not had this aid and does not receive it now, ex-actually, because of the band Grant Colleges. "Go and see yourself whether the colored man is keeping up with his'red brother."
2. To see Negroes govern a city and do it properly. A special train is to be run from Muskogee to Boley, the largest Negro own in the United States. Go and see for yourself what the race can do in practical government.
6. To see that Southern States where only 17.7 per cent, of the color of people in the District, and which with exception the District of Columbia, has the lowest percentages of illiteracy of the 17 South Atlantic, East South Central and West South Central States, including Delaware, Maryland and the District of Columbia. Oklahoma, because of her good schools, has 5.6 per cent, only, of her population illiterate.
7. To look out for new business prospects. Oklahoma is a great agricultural and stock-raising State; has the greatest natural gas region known to the world; has the most extensive railroad network; has nine billion tons of coal; Negroes own much of these valuable lands mentioned above; has 39,525 acres of Government land waiting to be taken; has only 137,612 Negroes.
8. The trip will be a much-needed vacation, in addition to the fact that what one sees and hears at the League will be worth dollars. Everyone must have rest and change if life is to be prolonged. Among the people who will be a beautiful parade showing what colored people in the State are doing, and a fair will furnish additional pleasures.
9. The trip will be comparatively inexpensive and be made in comfort. Muskogee is near the States where most of the colored people live. 10. To see, "face to face and eye to eye," the most remarkable character of our day—Dr. Booker T. Washington of common sense—is the kind that not near so common as it should be; the kind that made him famous and his name in all civilized lands.
GEN. NELSON MILES
Lieutenant General Nelson A. Miles, ranking officer on the retired list, the General of Army, spoke to a presented house before the Congress of Greater New York Sunday afternoon at 89 West 134th street. Counsel or J. Frank Wheaton presided and introduced General Miles. Speaking of the black man's bravery and of the part enacted by the Negro soldier in the Civil War, Gen. Miles said:
Two hundred thousand black men took part on the side of freedom while the remaining cared for the homes and plantations of the advocates of slavery. Gen. Miles cited two incidents which he said proved that the Negro was worthy to be a free man and not to be the slave of the white man. During the Civil War the Merrimac, the first ironclad 'having sink the Cumberland, struck terror to the forces of the North for fear that it would destroy some Northern city. The Monitor, a Federal ironclad had not been tried out. Had not even been fully manned. No more men were available from the regular enlisted naval forces so the colored men in the prisoner-camp were asked to volunteer by stepping six feet forward. When the order was given the whole body moved as one. In the war with Spain a similar order was given, for volunteers to care for the yellow-fever-victims.—The whole 24th regiment volunteered. Rarely has such courage and character been exhibited.
After the Civil War General Miles was stationed in North Carolina. In speaking of this period he said that the ex-slaves took to books as the thirst take to water, and the famished to food. He organized 240 colored schools, providing education for 25,000. Progress since that time has been commendable.
In speaking of the present war the General said: "The youth of America is extremely fortunate at this hour. Twenty million young men in Europe are being forced into the ranks to fight each other, to face long lines of entrenched infantry, and field artillery, to be torn to pieces and to be buried where they fall. This is a war less justifiable, less called for than any conflict I ever heard of. The indications are that it will be the most destructive struggle in history. No previous war ever marshalled such a number of soldiers and equipped them with such destructive implements as are now on the fields of Russia, Germany, Austria and France."
Counselor Alfred B. Cosey of Newark offered a vote of thanks to Gen. Miles. Col. C. W. Fillmore read a sketch of the General's life. Remarks were made by W. R. Richardson, the Rev. Reverdy Ramson, P. C. James and H. H. Blount. The Boy Scouts 'furnished an escort for the guest of honor.

STRAIGHTEN YOUR HAIR
Not with hot irons. But do it with (Kink no-more) the greatest hair straightening preparation on earth. Kink no-more will straighten the thickest kind of hair or hair that is too thick. You will have to do it to apply it on the hair and with a little combing the hair becomes straight, not to, stay for one day or one week. Water nor nothing else will make it kink again after it has been straightened. Kink no-more is a wonder worker. So marvelously does it do its work that one can use it to straighten hair like magic and is unique because there is not another preparation in the world like it. We offer a reward of $190 for any head of the Kink no-more vegetable compound; it is perfectly harmless and will not injure the scalp nor hair. But will stop it from falling out; positively removes dandruff; Kink no-more is vegetable hair and keeps it soft and glossy. Remember that Kink no-more is sold under a guarantee to do all that is claimed for it or on the receipt of $1.90 a regular size box of Kink no-more, enough to straighten from one to two heads of hair. When ordering send registered letter, paper money order or manta, offered to agents. Write to-day for special terms. Enclose 2 cent stamp to reply. Agents wanted everywhere.

~_It has-been decided to publish at Tuskegee Institute Post
Office, Every-Other-Week for the present,.a national farm
paper to be known as THE NEGRO FARMER.. It will be
published in the interest of. Negro landowners, tenant farmers
and of those who employ Negro labor. There is no, other
strictly farm newspaper in:the world devoted to the interest -
of Negro farmers. _ . : : %
Many of the white farm newspapers enjoy huge circula-
tions and there is no reason why a farm paper in the interest
"of Negroes should not prove equally successful. In fact, oc-,
ecupying an exclusive field it should enjoy a success far beyond’.
that of the usual farm publication. It is proposed to circulate
this paper among the 2,000,000 black farmers of the United
States. The paper will be eight pages, of about the size of

SEGREGATION IN THE NORTH.
(Phe violent outbreak of-a mob
of one thousand people, mosily “of
* the foreign born sort, according to
the Philadelphia Tribunc, in Wes
Philadelphia, a- few, weeks ago
Hagainst ,a, colored person and her
| family who had-purchased a very
desirable honit,-through-a-colored
Teal estate agent, shows that the
mob spirit is with ias in the North,
as wéll as the South and the, West,
and that ‘we should have ‘strong
“civic organizations to help us safe-
guard our interests, and all. the
ingre so because, we have not got

The Tribune says that the mob
= was buay=tworhiours!and- that no
Police were in sight all’ of*the time,

had nothing to say about the out-
sage. The matter was placed in
Tegal hands and developments are
expected. They should be forced.
Rages® usually gather in groups
and communitiés, both small and
Jarge, asa matter of preferetice, In
‘New: York such groups are among
the=most common divisions of the}
population, which simplifies social
settlement and ‘other uplift’ and
helpful work, and they are always
grouped on race lities, being mostly
foreigners and mostly colored, more
or less, -there being precious few
real white people among them; but
the groupings are voluiitary; the
People gather to themselves be-
cause they. prefer it. Those of ther
who do not care to live in their
race groupiyg-are free to buy or:
rent and to live in ‘most parts of
the city where they are able to do
so., It is simply a question of ‘abils!
ity to pay for what is wanted the
price demanded. This is as it
should be. :
Colored people also live in groups’
and. communities of their own and
with their own; bat they resent,
as others would, any’effort of pub-
Tie opinion of law-makers to de-
dare arid insist that-they: shall do
so. What people do“of their own
accord is one thing; what they are
told they must do, when there is no
legal or personal right to dictate to
them in the matter, is another thing,
and av thing serious, very serious,
not only with colored people, but
with all people. In Europe the
movement towards stich coercion is
‘on race'lines, and the Jew, for'the
most part, is made the victin; in
this country its of the-color line,
atid the Negro is; for.the most part,,
‘the victim. We should orginize in
every community and keep the or-
ganization strong and healthy, :to.

In the Southern Iorkiitan for July we find and are very nich
interested. in excerpts from: Judge '‘iagt’s address to the graduating
class of the Hampton ‘Institute, April 24, last, because of ‘his ‘broad
and hopefit outlook ‘upon ‘the South and tlie .Negro’s opportunity,
which no one sees more clearly ‘than Judge Tart, and because of: his
genuine appreciation’ of Hampton Institute and ‘the great and -yood
worke‘lias and is, doing for, Negro uplift and prepareduess to, mee
he requlrements of gowd-citiZenship and manhood, Judge Tarr said:
“— “Afier my experience at Hainpton and ‘after ,studyiig the North and ‘the
South, it seems’ to me that while-the North has apparently been’ the more’ for-
tunate section for a number of decades, it is the: South now that has a definite
fyture-before it swhich it-ean work out;.and it is the North, which is, strugyling
“amid clogged and chaptie coviditions, the future tendeney of whieh is, uncertain
“With the hajural tendencies of the Negro, with his natural desire to be
farmer,-with land easily, within: his. reach, with the. cconomic freedom that. he
has, with great opportunity for_niechanical trades in country’ surroundings, with
a definite-goal before him, undisturbed by social theories, unaffected by political
change or disturbance, taught that the labor of his hand is the most honorable
thing that he can do, there isfnot anything that he cannot accomplish for his
people ‘by inereasing their wealth and their economic «importance, which ate
stepping stones to the’other rights to Which they aspire, * | * *
““Meantime, they will achieve real happiness..and under the intluence of
wisely ordered lives and the inspiration of ‘religion. they’ will justify all dh
sacrifices and labor of men of thejr own and other*races for their elevation.”
In the same issue of the-Southern Markman, Major Roveat R.
Motox, in the article already quoted ii Tne Ace, and ag if- to. re-
enforce the hopeful viewpoint and good advice of Judge Tart, says
the following, as showing what the truth is concernirig what the work-
ing Negro is doing for.himself and the South: — *
“It is frequently. asserted by careless and. thoughtless speakers and writers
that all Negroes are lazy, shiftless and inefticient; but the people who say this
are not only ont of accord with the facts of the-case, but they often do ‘not
believe what they themselves are saying. .
What they mean to say is that some Negroes tif-every community are lazy,
shiftless and inefficient: but in practically every district where Negroes are
employed, ‘whether as farm laborers or as mechanical laborers,"the verdict is that
the large’ majority of Negro workers are reliable, many of them are skillful and
Ivery’efhicient, and not a few are almost indispensable. There are very few places
in the South where the employer would be willing to dispense with the services
of his-Negro employes. « .
__, The statements that are now being made in-a spirit of boastiul-
neSS‘in the stock exchanges of the South, that thys year's. yield of
cotton will be the largest in the history of the cultivation of that
valuable staple, and that the production-of grain and other food products
will be proportionately great, bears out Major Motos’s estimate of the
value of Negro labor ‘to the Southern States and justifies the -hopetul
viewpoint and good advice of Judge Tarr. . But underneath it all lies
the significant fact that.a large ptecentage of the cotton and cereal
production of the South to-day is due to the independent labor of
Negro farm owners as distinct from the tabor of Negro wage workers,
ndmarks a departure in Southern industrial conditions not dreamed
f by the slave masters as ever being possible, and by the friends of
the liberated slaves as highly problematical. Fifty years of partial
freedom and opportunity have enabled the Negro people to accom-
plish wonders, not only’ in ‘the acquisition and development of farm
property, but of urban property as well, and in the establishment of
Lusiness enterprists of all sorts, with a string of banks froni-Riehmond
to Atlanta and from Atlanta to“Memphis and {font Memphis to-Little
Rock, with educated men of law and medicine who are making name
and fortune, and laying a solid fotindation for their children to, build
ja better and stronger name and fortune upon. This is the bright and
hopeful side of the picture. se —
_~ Too much stress,cannot be laid upon the other: side ‘of the picture.
The South seems not to appreciate the splendid asset it has in its
Negro labor and industrial forces. Its politicians spend too much of
their time in, devising segregation laws in buying and renting of land,
Separation laws in everything affecting thé two races, from the grave-
yard to the executive mansion, and in words of contemptuous dis-
paragement of the Negro people. to produce that cordiality that should
exist between them as helpful members of the same civil and industrial
body, organisin, State. The discontent: this policy, has provoked and
keeps alive is a sufficient offset to the rampant discotitent of the laboring
forces in other States .of the Union to which Judge ‘Tarr alludes.
and that keeps those States/in a disturbed and unhealthy industrial
condition. ‘
Southern law: and public opinion hamper to, much the growth and
development of. Negro brains and brawn, much of which is wasted in
useless. friction-and bickering. | Se
howe very decidedly that others] ing stands foremost in this vicinity.

the past few years Bethel A, M, E.

oflicers are beginning to feel that a
better day is beginning. A “change
for the better came*wnder the pastor-
ate of the Rev. W.-H. Burrell, who
was there for'a few! months.-and now
with the Rev, A. Lincoln Murray at
the helm the work is going forward
swith renewed vigor. :
Dr. Murray was appointed at the
fast annual conference. taking’ up the
work May J1, 1914. For four years
-previous he had heen. presiding elder
of the Newarks district in the New
Jersey conference, in which this church
is located, so that he had opportunity
to become familiar with existing con-
ditions... Dr. Murray's work during
the last fear on the district was a_rec-
ord breaker. $1,700 in Dollar Money
had been’ raised, the largest in the
hisdry of the district. and 230 conver-
sions were had. When he took charge
at Bethel’ he instituted a new system
oi records by which it was ascer-
tained ‘that insteatl of haying only
about one-hundred members there
were more than two hundred. At the
istrict conference held in, Newark
geently the church.reported 265 mem-

LAFAYETTE THEATRE..
(BY LESTER A WALTON.)
ROSAMOND JOHNSON is playing a vaudeville engagement at the Lafayette Theatre this week, and the occasion is noteworthy for many reasons. The appearance of Mr. Johnson at the Lafayette marks his retirement from the stage, his intentions being to bid goodbye to the footlights to bequeie general supervisor of music of the Music School Settlement for Colored People, located in New York City.
Just ten years ago the team of Cole & Johnson was one of the headline acts in vaudeville and a big favorite with the theatreregoing public. Just ten years ago "Bob" Cole and J. Rosamond Johnson, assisted by James W. Johnson,
THE
MISSING
MAN
J. ROSAMOND JOHNSON
were regarded as the leading composers of popular songs in America and abroad. Just ten years ago such tuneful compositions as "Under the Bamboo Tree," "Congo Love Song" and "Lazy Moon" were being hummed with avidity by thousands and any publisher was ready and willing to print any composition submitted by Cole & Johnson. It was a famous team that blazed the way in vaudeville for song writers. Not until they made their debut in their own compositions was vaudeville a fruitful field for the composer of popular pieces. It is a source of graffication to many colored Americans that no act in vaudeville has commanded more respect than Cole & Johnson. Very often colored acts are artistic hits on the stage, but the judgment displayed in deportment and along other lines does not win for them respectful consideration.
After the death of "Bob" Cole in 1911 J. Rosamond Johnson formed an act with Charlie Hart, formerly of Avery & Hart. The team went abroad and later Mr. Johnson was given charge of the large chorus at one of the leading theatres in London. In February he returned to America and appeared in vaudeville for a short time with Tom Brown, later doing a single turn. It has long been the ambition of Mr. Johnson to retire from the stage and devote the greater part of his time to conducting a conservatory where the colored youth with musical cleanings might be given a thorough course of instruction, and he is eagerly looking forward to his new work at the Music School Settlement for Colored People.
The sketch presented by J. Rosamond Johnson at the Lafayette Theatre this week is characteristic of the old Cole & Johnson act—high class, clean, refined and entertaining—the sort of a pianologue so immensely enjoyed by audiences in big time yaudeville houses. There is a variety of musical selections and other brands of music are given an opportunity to be heard, besides the most ragged ragtime. Mr. Johnson will be at the Lafayette for the entire week.
Bailey & Teare are heading a big act, "Fun in the Parlor," which bears the earmarks of developing into a good, marketable skit. The act would be in greater demand if an exterior instead of an interior setting was used. With a stronger opening, chorus and a few changes made in musical numbers the act should prove a winner. The finish is of the whirlwind variety, several of the members using brass musical instruments.
Chappelle & Muse have, a singing act above the average. Both have good voices which they use advantageously. It is not necessary for Muse to make an effort to inject comedy into his numbers, as it detracts from his work. With the bass voice he has the audience is more detrous of regarding him seriously than viewing him in a humorous light during the resolution of such standard bass songs as "Asleep in the Deep."
The Royal Trio made many friends the first half of the week with their singing. Little jerry, the little man with the big voice, was amusing, and the Memards, rogobats, pleased in No.1 spot. Monday the Lafayette Theatre returned to vaudeville. That the house is even more popular to-day than prior
DRAMATICS AND ATHLETICS
to the engagement of the Darktown Follies is being emphasized by the large houses in evidence both afternoon and evening.
The country store feature continues to be the talk of Harlem, and on-Tuesday and Saturday evenings many are compelled to stand. Wednesday evening is amateur night, and ambitions young men and women who aspire to take up the stage as a livelihood are given an opportunity to display their histrionic wares.
A two-reel photo play, with an all-star colored cast, will be shown the second half of the week.

PASTOR POWELL GOES TO WASHINGTON, D. C.
The Rev. Holland Powell, for the past six years pastor of the Bethany Baptist Church, Clermont avenue, near Atlantic, has resigned that pastorate and accepted a call to the Liberty Baptist Church, located on E street, near 18th, Washington, D. C.
The call was extended by the church last February and has been under advertisement by the minister since that time. His formal acceptance was tendered and he preached his first sermon as pastor on Sunday, July 12. His resignation was accepted by the Brooklyn church last Friday night.
The Rev. Mr. Powell has had an eventful career in the ministry, covering a period of thirty-six years.
Probably his most successful and effective work has been that done while pastoring Bethany Church in Brooklyn. When he took charge of the church in 1908 he found a discouraged congregation housed in an old dilapidated building, out of repair, with a mortgage of $10,280. A book enrollment of 303 was found actually to be less than a hundred. After reducing the mortgage to $5,300 a new mortgage of $12,000 was made, the old one paid off, and the building renovated and remodeled. A manufacturing corporation, with its property adjoining on either side that of the church found itself handicapped for room and made a proposition to take over the church site, giving in exchange a site 112 feet away.
Church Gets Bonus of $15,000.
Notwithstanding the opposition of some of the members who were misled and misinformed 'the proposition was accepted, the church building was moved to the new site, again remodeled and additions and improvements' added, which makes Bethany the largest, most cominiodious and best appointed Negro Baptist church in Brooklyn. The exchange netted a bonus to the church of $15,000, which was spent on improvements: a total of more than $20,000 in cash has been spent under the administration of Pastor Powell. A hot water heating system has been installed, with an aboveground basement; there is a new pipe organ with a gas motor; the pride of the members is centered in the handsome circular pews, which makes the seating of the congregation converge toward a common centre; the baptistery is the most up-to-date in any Baptist church in this section, the pool being encased in heavy plate glass, so that when the rite of baptism is performed the minister and candidates are entirely visible to the congregation.
Pastor Powell's New Work.
The Liberty Baptist Church, Washington, to which Mr. Powell now transfers his energies, is one of the large and influential churches of that city, with a membership of about one thousand. It has recently sold its

Thirty-Six Years Record.
Mr. Powell was born in Middlesex County, Va., in 1854, and graduated from the Wayland Seminary, Washington. D. C., which later was moved to Richmond, Va., and renamed the Union University. In 1878 he was appointed missionary for the Norfolk-Virginia, Union Baptist-Association; in 1881 he entered upon his first pastorate with the Grove Baptist Church, Churchland, Norfolk County; he served for years, building a church, adding 347 members and paying off all debts; in 1885 he went to the Michigan Street Baptist Church, Buffalo, N.Y., and in four years' time paid off a debt of $1.050; 1889 found him pastoring Mt.

HeH was called, to Toronto, Canada. on the special mission of supervising the erection of a new building for the Queen Street Baptist Church, which task was completed in seven months; returning to the States he was located at Springfield, Ohio, with the 2nd Baptist Church, but Mrs. Powell's health failed which necessitated a removal to Washington. D. C., her home. As educational secretary of the Virginia Seminary and College during 1907, he raised in one year the largest sum ever raised for that school.
Mr. Powell was first married in 1878 to Emma M. Chinn, a public school teacher of Alexandria; Va., who died after twenty years of married life. His present wife was Miss Rebecca Moten, a teacher in the Washington graded schools. They were married in 1901, and have a beautiful home at 84 Putnam avenue. Mrs. Powell is a splendid helpmate and an ideal minister's wife. Much of the success of Mr. Powell is due to the wise counsel and sound advice of his wife. They own also a home in Washington, and expect to move to that city about September 1, or as soon as they can secure possession of the house.
