INTERESTED IN BETTER BABIES United States Government Assists Parents in Caring For Their Babies Bulletins and Pamphlets Sent Free of Charge to Applicants Which Contain Valuable Advice and Instruction for Mothers THE AGE BABIES' CONTEST Proud Parents in All Sections are Sending in Pictures of Their Offspring Express Hope that Contest will Inspire Parents to Take Better Care of Their Babies THE NEW YORK AGE BETTER LITTLE CONTEST is on, and the kids are being given the right of way! From July 22 until September 2 the Baby will be King. Inaugurating the presentation of photo of the children. THE AGE is showing this week a group of preprocessing and attractive babies whose pictures have been received, and from week to week this feature will be continued until September 2 when the last pictures will be printed and the judges will be called upon to make public their decision. Twelve babies will be awarded handsome solid silver cups—six from Greater New York and six from the country at large. Three prizes will be awarded in the group of kiddies to the age of three years and three cups to the kiddies from three twelve years of age, in each group. Total of twelve cups to the best babies in the countries as shown by their photographis submitted in this contest. Send in the baby's picture. There is no cost attached and there is no red tape. All that is necessary is writing on the backing of the photo the name, age, weight, and names and addresses of the parents, and enclosing with photo a stamp for its return if that is desired. All photos will receive the most careful handling, and will be returned in the same good condition as received. Not the slightest damage will be done to the most costly or the most cherished photograph, and the most extreme care will be exercised to see that all are returned promptly after the close of the contest to the parents or friends sending them in. The Government Aids Child Welfare It will be interesting to make comparisons of the babies living in different sections of the country, although it is not thought there will be any physical distinction characterizing the development of the children of any one section as compared with those of some other section. The health and development of the children of all ages and all sections has become a matter of consideration and has called for research and investigation by the best trained minds of the country, both scientific and lay. Child welfare calls for the exercise of care and knowledge in the applying of sanitation and hygienic precautions. That there might be general and effective distribution of the means of securing this knowledge, milk stations have been established in certain locations where parents can secure lots of cost the services of skilled physicians and trained nurses, who act and instruct as to the care of children. The United States government and some of the state governments has established bureaus for the dissemination of information concerning the welfare of children and many pamphlets andcircums and even books, are published free of cost to who are desirous of receiving and instruction in the children. I compliment men and welcome of whom will be physi- will be asked to act as judges seeing the best babies shown in various groups. There will be limitation or restriction in the age of the prize winners. WANT$68,072,388 FROM U.S. FOR WORK AS SLAVES Suit Filed Against Secretary of the Treasury Bases Claim on Cotton Tax Plaintiffs Concede That This is Not the legitimate Property of the United States But Should be Paid to Those Whose Labor the Cotton Vickling this Sum was Produced. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 21—Basing their claim on work performed during the years from 1859 to 1868 in the production and preparation of cotton for the market, certain Negro residents of Louisiana, Texas, Mississippi and Tennessee filed suit on Tuesday, July 13, in the District Supreme Court against William G. McAdow, Secretary of the Treasury of the United States, for the sum of $08,072,888, as a part of the fruit of the labor of the plaintiffs under "internal revenue tax on raw cotton." The plaintiffs are H. N. Johnson of Louisiana, R. Bowers of Texas, C. B. Williams, of Mississippi, and Mamie Thompson of Tennessee, who say in the bill of complaint that they sue for themselves and others similarly interested. The bill sets forth that the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States obtained possession, and the defendant herein now holds the custody of certain money which was a part of the fruit of the labor of the plaintiffs amounting to 668,072,388 under "internal revenue tax on raw cotton," and that this sum is not the legitimate property of the United States, and should be paid to those by whose labor the cotton yielding the revenue was produced. Service was Result of Involutary Servitude. Another paragraph of the full reads: "Plaimiffs and such of them as claim here as heirs are subject to a system of involuntary servitude in the above-named States, and other States commonly known as the Southern States." Referring further to the conditions under which the services were rendered, the petition says: "That the system of involuntary servitude by which the plaintiffs were dominated, to wit: under and by force of a traditional law of force, forced plaintiffs and their ancestors, against their free will of action and by coercion and justifiable fear of bodily injury or destruction, to render said labor." Bill Prepared by Colored Lawyer The petition was filed by Attorney E M Hewlett, as the local attorney representing Attorneys Cornelius J. Jones, of Muskogee, Qkla, and H A Guese Jones, who is said to have prepared a bill of complaint, is a colored lawyer. The petition asks that the case be referred to a master in chancery, to take proof of the claims of the parties interested, and that a bill of discovery be issued to ascertain among whom the money shall be distributed and the amounts that each shall receive, and to have the Secretary of the Treasury disclose the source from which the sum held by him was derived. Every little kiddie whose picture is sent in will have an equal show with the rest of them. The judges will be selected not only for ability to judge, but for probity and fairmindedness as well. There will be no favoritism. An Interesting Letter The only distinction to be made is in the matter of territory. Children from Greater New York will be placed in a class to them-clives and judged, in the two age groups specified, without any comparison with the children from the country at large. All the children of the United States: aside from Greater New York, will be placed in a single class, with two age groups, and the awards will be made without regard to any thing except merit. An interesting letter comes to the Contest Editor, accompanied by the photo of a fine little boy baby. Said the proud daddy, in sending the picture: "I am sending you the photo of our baby, with the required information, and I might add that he has not been sick since he was three weeks old. He eats any and everything we eat, sleeps from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. and seldom gives any trouble in the night. When he does it seems to be from the extreme heat. We trust that your effort will be the means of inspiring our people to take better care of the babies." THE AGE heartily joins with the writer in the houp expressed in the last sentence of his letter, that the Better Babies' Contest "will be the means of inspiring our people to take better care of the babies." Bear in mind that the BETTER BABIES' CONTEST opens with this week, July 22, and closes with the first issue of THE AGE in September to be dated September 2.

DON'T FORGET THE FAMOUS CLEF CLUB Next Sunday at 3 o'clock GLADYS ODILE WALTON Brooklyn MARJORIE MAY WALTON Brooklyn DEMOCRAT, IS LET OUT The Wilson Administration finished its job of extracting Negroes from the payroll of the Internal Revenue office at New York last week when Peter Smith, an avowed Bishop Democrat and a protege of Bishop Wallers, was handed his walking papers. When Peter Smith was confined by the new Collector, his services were no longer required his amazement: knew no bounds, for only a day or so before he had been informed that instead of being booed out of a fice he would be promoted. That all colored officers looked alike to the Wilson people, whether they be Democrats or Republicans, has kept plainly shown by the rough treatment colored. Democrats in office have been receiving in New York since the new Collector of Internal Revenue, a Southern white man took charge. Ralph E Langston who was one of the first colored men in the country to receive an appointment under the Wilson administration, was the first to receive walking papers under the new Collector. As it was well known that Langston worked in the interest of Wilson during the Presidential campaign, the other colored Wilsonian Democrats began to feel a bit shaky, for it became apparent that a black man moved in on to out all colored firms in the local revenue department. Since June scores of colored men have been summarily dismissed by Charles W. W. Jackson's succession. MRS MILLY THORPE DECLARED A LEGAL WIFE Mrs Milk Thorpe 240 West 40th street the widow of Frederick R Thorpe was recently granted a back pension of $487 and $12 per month by the United States Government.

Mr. Thorpe found in the navy during the Civil War and when he died, Janu- ary 1912 another woman loomed up, claiming to be his legal wife. The Pension Department at Washington took the matter and after three years of in- vestigation rendered a decision in favor of Mrs Milk Thorpe. THE REV. M. C. B. MASON Special to The New York Age.

PRICE FIVE CENTS NEGRO TOWN IS 48 YEARS OLD Lovejoy, Ill., formerly Called Brooklyn, has Population of 1700 Two Leading Merchants of the Town are White Men Who Went to Lovejoy Years Ago AlmostPenniless 11 SALOONS, 3- CHURCHES An Age Staff Correspondent Visits Lovejoy and Tells of Conditions as They Exist in Unique Illinois Community—Some Impressions Made By Looking Over Present Developements. (BY A. STAFF CORRESPONDENT. OF THE AGE.) St. Louis, Mo., July 20. Less than an hour's ride from St. Louis and just a stone's throw from East St. Louis, Ill., is located a settlement which is unique in many respects. Until a few years ago it was known as Brooklyn, but now it is designated by the post-office officials as Lovejoy, Ill. Although a youth in size of population, Lovejoy is by no means of a young and tender age, for it was in 1867, shortly after the passage of the War Amendments, that the village of Brooklyn was incorporated by Negroes. It was my first trip to Lovejoy in many years, and I was anxious to note what progress this Negro town had made in the past decade. I was particularly desirous of learning just what the race was doing in a business way. Fifteen minutes after starting my investigation I had reached the conclusion that conditions existing in Lovejoy would not afford me an opportunity to make booker T. Washington and other race leaders who advise the Negro to go into business very enthusiastic or cause them to wax enthusiastic. Lovejoy has a population of 1,700, out of which all the inhabitants are colored except about seventy-five white persons. And yet in this community, with its preponderance of colored inhabitants, all the large business concerns are conducted by-white-people. In this town of 1,700 people and three churches the only business in which the Negro shows unusual aptitude is the sale of liquor. It is there where he "shines" for in the village are eleven saloons, or approximately one saloon to every 154 persons. Temperance advocates and prohibitionists of the William Jennings Bryan type would most likely regard these figures as exceedingly startling. And they are. White Merchants are Wealthy. The two largest commercial enterprises in Lovejoy are conducted by men of Irish descent, both of whom came to the village some years ago in straight-gined circumstances or as one native facetiously remarked "with a boot and a shoe, and the shoe had a hole in it." About twenty years ago the merchant doing the largest business appeared in Lovejoy without enough money to rent a small store. Now he is doing a general merchandise business and is reputed to be worth $80,000 and all made on a "shoe-string." The other merchant has been in the village about fifteen years. He has increased his financial condition from a little change to between $5,000 and $40,000. The question was asked one of the wealthiest and most influential colored men in the town—in fact the man who helped give the first merchant a start some twenty years ago—why such a peculiar and lamentable condition should exist in a community boasting of such a comparatively large Negro population. The question was at first answered by an incredulous smile and a shake of the head. Then he made the starting statement that, to his way of thinking, the Negro was not cut out to be a business man, and that it would take a long time to make him one. After I cited numerous instances in which the Negro had proved a success in business throughout the country, I asked if it was not the city of the race leaders in Lovejoy to educate their people and show them the wisdom of patronizing the members of their own race. To this line of questioning this prominent citizen of Lovejoy came back with the declaration that it was also necessary that the colored man going into business should be made to thoroughly qualify himself before embarking into an enterprise, and furthermore it was a difficult matter to keep a prosperous colored merchant from "getting the big head" after he had accumulated a few thousand dollars. Colored Merchants Have Been Failures. To make his point more telling he recited the following incidents. Some years ago an old and highly respected colored citizen of Lowerwey opened a grocery store, and for a year or so did a good business. He accumulated about $4,000, thereby reaching the height of his financial aspirations. Then he began to assume a change of front. He was unaccommodating and gruff, and if deeply engrossed in reading of the news of the day would not get up to wait on a customer until he had finished his perusal. It was not long before this individual the businessman's love of his prices were always higher. He, too, was forced to make his exit as "one of Lovejoy's leading business men." women made off young colored men who were shabby clothes, who live line by line, to follow and courteous women to be lavoyed and open stores women to be lovely supported by members of the lavoyed trace, the answer given women. The lavoyed that sale colored women are the most important of all, allows with success. The two white colored boys of lavoyed use colored boys on their delivery wagons, but not a colored clerk is employed in any of their stores. "Why would it not be possible for the people of Negroes to dominate the political situation and elect a white mayor, etc., as they have dominated, the business field—the prominent citizen was asked. "Because business and politics are regarded by Negroes here in a different light," was the reply. "Nearly every Negro in Lovejoy thinks he is a politician and is deeply interested in politics. It would be utterly impossible to elect a white mayor of Lovejoy. But in the matter of conducting business enterprises few Negroes, it is any ambition to go into business, and for that reason pay little or no attention to those making the real money in the village." New Five-Room Brick School. It has been ten years or more since my last visit to Lovejoy, and I must confess that there have been no great changes in that length of time. It is evident no civic reform organizations exist to beautify the village, for except in a few instances the frame houses have not tasted fresh paint since my last visit. There is a well-kept drug store in which is the post-office, and it is gratifying to state that the drug store is owned by colored woman. A five-room brick schoolhouse—the lovejoy School—erected by the county two years ago at a cost of $20,000, is the show place of the village. The building is modern in appointment and is pointed with pride by the well-thinking members of the race. But the schoolhouse was not secured without a big fight. lovejoy is in St. Chair County, with East St. Louis and other thriving industrial Illinois centers. The county seat is lilleville. Three years ago in order to get the new school building an election was held to vote on a bond issue. Now some of the politicians in East St. Louis, connected with the big packing houses, were opposed to the new school on the ground that East St. Louis and the other towns in St. Clair County would have to shoulder most of the debt. These politicians on election day in Lovejoy ought the proposition, using all the resources they could command and defeating the bond issue by a narrow margin. The charge was made at the time that the proposition was lost because the white politicians prevailed upon the ignorant Negroes to vote against their own interest. Some of them voted against properly educating their own children! The intelligent members again opened the fight for better facilities for the schoolchildren of the village. Fearing they would be beaten at the polls in the second test of strength, the politicians agreed to effect a compromise. So instead of a $20,000 schoolhouse arrangements were made to give Lovejoy a $20,000 structure. Strange Attitude of Some Politicians. I was greatly surprised to learn that such an unfriendly stand should be taken by white politicians in any county in Illinois against furthering the interest of the Negro along educational lines; especially did I show surprise in view of the large force of Negro help employed in the stockyards by the packers. However, I was informed that the policemen with the packing plants, are more concerned in the ignorant Negro who would ladly do their bidding than the intelligent Negro who is ambitious and who demands to be treated as a man. Lovejoy is in the heart of a great industrial center and when conditions are normal in the business world opportunities for earning big wages are unusually good. In the stockyards Negroes are employed as expert ham trimmers who earn as high as $6 a day. in the air shops at Madison colored men are also employed in large numbers and make a good living. Even boys of sixteen make from $1.50 to $1.75 a day. Just how much money the colored men of Lovejoy put in the banks when business conditions are good is not known. At this time Lovejoy is without a mayor, due to an unfortunate occurrence at the polls last April with fatal results. Much bitterness existed between the two factions, and one man met death and others were injured. Civil and criminal proceedings are now pending in the courts at Belleville, and on the outcome if these cases will largely depend the settlement of the mayoralty tangle. It is the first time in over forty years that such an unpleasant condition obtained in the village of Lovejoy, and while there are some in this country who would like to set up Lovejoy as an example of the Negro's inability to rule, similar cases in profusion could be cited in fact, the situation in Lovejoy to-day arises into insignificance, when the laxness of speaking in the South under the black man is not permitted to rule, for instance. Iay Illiterate Negro from South Make Trouble. The charge is made that the influx of litterate Negroes from the South is directly responsible for the disgraceful and tragic occurrence over the fight for taxor last spring, in which the ignorant and illiterate were arrayed against the intelligent citizens. The fact that this method was employed to defeat the hand issue proposition submitted to the voters of Lovejoy three years ago tends to substantiate this charge. But this practice of arraying the ignorant Negro against the intelligent Negro is not connected solely to the precincts of Lovey, Ill. Returning to the issue of the Negro business, no fair-minded person, white colored, should condemn the white merchants of Lovejoy for taking advan- some of the colored citizens should be aimed at the colored citizens of Lovejoy, who do not possess sufficient race consciousness, race pride and business instinct, to make women of their own nature. Lovejoy, Ill., presents to the world a situation that should Finnish food for reflection for the well-thinking Negroes of this country. Here is a town people by Negroes in which the colored citizens get all the manhood rights and the white people get all the money! L.A.W. Ottawa, Ontario, July 20. The fol- lowing strong and sensible article was written by George A. Myers and pub- lished in the Advocate of this city. Emphasizing the necessity of system in the conduct of business enterprises, and declaring that the race is burdened with a number of parasites—men and women depending upon others for food and clothes, Mr. Myers says: "The measure of one's success in business is his ability to organize. If you cannot bring system to bear, your success is short-lived. In business it is the little things that count—The Detail. It has been well said that "A million mice nibble at every business concern." Organization means that a man shall grow with his business; you shall grow with your business; you must have a system, one of your systems, after no one. The system that applies to one business will not apply to another. No business long remains greater than the man who runs it. The character of the man should mirror itself throughout the organization. He must possess executive ability—the faculty of having his subordinates execute his policy with the least possible friction—he to apply the lubricant here and there wherever needed, so as all departments or branches shall move with the same smoothness and regularity. The mechanician causes one hand to move 12 times the space of the other in the same time. Good business men do not define their competitors, they are too busy endeavoring to make their own business a success. This is a good point for our business men to remember. Must Eliminate the Parasite. "The great problem of civilization is to eliminate the parasite—the man or woman dependent upon another for bread and clothes. We, as a race of people, are parasites; we are not producers; we are not builders. We depend upon the white man. I speak of the rule, not the exception. What we are not producers can this be done." Just the same as the other races of people have started from humble beginnings and build up, We are prone to start up and build down. The Jew will start in the junk business. The Italian peddling fruit. It requires but little capital to start either. Years ago a certain member of the race took the initiative and successfully peddled chewing gum and educated a family. Another peddled drivers and subsequently represented the race in Ohio. These were examples of persistence and sticktottiveness coupled with thrift. No matter what you are, be the BEST. Set the pace. "Many of our people in business and practicing the professions seek to make color an asset. This should not be. It is not necessary, in order to be successful. Don't be a Colored business man. Don't be a Colored professional man. It's an admission of inferiority. If you are a business man, let your business come first. Many of your business like the man who bought a and continued to milk that cow without giving it proper care. When the cow ceased to give milk, he looked around for the reason. While he was looking the cow died. Just so with your business. You must put a certain percentage of your profits back into it. You must advertise it and give it the proper care, else it will die. Seek patronage upon your ability. If you have merit, if you carry the goods the company and advertise the fact, they will find you. You do not measure up in equation, don't find fault when our people turn you down and seek a white man. Everyone nowadays wants 100 cents for their dollar, and this applies to black and white alike."

Mary Costello of New York City has written a letter giving her story of "What the Business Needs" to the Negro. He gives a number of reasons for why, exactly, should he put forth to make the coming session of the National Negro Business League in Boston the most successful ever held. Says Bishop Costello: there are many reasons why the ensuing convention to be held in Boston should be the greatest success in history, many of which are set forth in the literature that is being circulated very extensively throughout the country, but I wish here to emphasize two particularly: First, business can send experience to the commercial life of the country. We are confronted with conditions in every phase of life that try men's souls. What we need most in such a crisis is that inspiration that comes from contact, with man of business who are successful under these conditions. There is no need of allowing our institutions to lag. The cry of hard times is calculated to destroy confidence. When confidence is gone, we fall to utilize the opportunities at our immediate object of the National Negro Business League is to inspire and encourage Negro business, enterprises. "The resourceful mind of the founder of the League saw the possibilities of the race, conceived the idea, of an organization composed of business men from every walk of life, to allow them in their humble way to tell the simple story of their struggles in life, with varied experiences of how they succeeded in thought and ideas; permeating 'the heart of that vast throng of men and women tends to inspire each to a nonler endeavor. "Prior to my becoming a member of the National Negro Business League, it was a question in my mind as to how such an organization would materially benefit our people, but the first meeting I attended. I heard the stories of struggling men and women in every avenue of business endeavor; how some of them started without a dollar or, with very small capital, and, in a few years, by thrift, industry and economy, had amassed a handsome little fortune. The hill would deep down in my soul that this purpose is just the right thing, backward and Dr. Booker T. Washington, the founder, could not of his resourceful mind have conceived a better scheme to inspire our people to more successful achievements than to meet once every year to tell of their progress in business, in framing, and in every other line of industry.

Yours for the advancement of our race, (Sigled) ELIAS ACMIS (Life Member) Holly Springs Manitoba 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 kinkiest kind of hair! Think about it—a preparation that all you have to do is it apply on the hair and with a little combing the hair becomes straight, not to stay for one day or one week, but to last from six to eight months. Water nor nothing else will make it kink again after it has been straightened. Kink-no-more is a wonder tool. So manically does it do its work that one can hardly believe their own eyes. It works like magic; and is unique because there is not another preparation in the world like it. We offer a reward of $100 for any head-of-hair the Kink-no-more will not straighten. Kink-no-more is a vegetable compound; it is perfectly harmless and will not injure the skin out; positively removes dandruff, promotes a luxurant growth of healthy hair and keeps it lissy; contains the kink that is sold under the name to do what is claimed for it or money refunded. We will send to anyone on the receipt of $1.00 a hair. On Kink-no-more, we straighten from one to two heads of hair. When ordering, registered letter, postal address, and two heads of hair inducements offered to agents. Write to day for special terms. Enclose 2 cent stamp to reply. Agents wanted everywhere.

"We should pay attention: to none of it except for the fact that it is just this kind of talk Which has bludgeoned the majority of the Negro's ‘friends into a state of acquiescence that amounts almost to coma., It is this kind of talk that has made the ‘North apologetic not only for adopting the Fourteenth and Fifteenth ‘Amendments, but for destroying slavery arid even for preserving the Union. : Wer suppose it would sérve no purpose to point out to Mr Oglesby that in quoting from Senator Bacon on this.particular ques: tion he was, in both the literal and figurative sense of. the phrase quating from a-dead one. Not only is Senator Bacon dead, but al of his ideas on the Negro question belong to a dead past.

Seer sere eee. nee Sle et a ere, veer cee now “thaghe= Fourteenth and Fifteenth” Amendments were not adopted for the purpose of, establishing black supremacy in, the South, but were adopted to give the emancipated slaves means of protecting themselves in their newly acquired status.’ The shame lof the country is that it did not give them any more than that. Four million slaves turned out upon their own resources, without a penny or a rag, and with nothing in their hands but “a scrap of paper!” And what these same four million have risen to from this start with less than nothing, and in spite of all the-powers against them, Mr. ‘Oglesby and men with brains and hearts like his refuse to-see. *. To show how Senator lacon's mind. was constructed and how: Hitile his opinion on-a question of human rights was worth, he could describe the enfranchisement of the Negro as the blackest and most infamous crime ever committed against ¢ivilization; we are curious to know in what category he put the sort of slayery that was prac- ticed in the cotton belt’ of the South for more than a hundred years. "If it was a black and infamous crime to free the slaves and give them, at least; a shadow of human and civil rights, what was it then to become the kidnappers of innocent, men, wornen and children, to bring them across the sea and condemn them to the toil of an ax, to live a life of indolence and ease upon their sweat, to debauch their women, and then stand as the auctionter of your own flesh and blood upon the block? : ~ re " ee: = The characterization of the American Negro as “the lowest and most inferior in blood and development of the human race” will ot stand before the facts. If the American Negro was that breed of being, the problem before the South would not be to keep him from rising, but"to keep him from: sinking. Such a statement springs only from the most bitter prejudice. It Shows blindness to the fact thatthe American Negro possesses many finie qualities, in which he is excelled by no race-in the world. He is unsurpassed in loyalty. Kindliness of heart, atid love for music: he is aspiring, he: moves forward tiot backward, upward not downward; he ts adaptable, and so, in spite of ostracism, he has not-remained‘an alien clement, but has become American to the,core:-he possesses bodily strength and stamina, and so can perform his task with any other man: He pos- sesses courage, and he has proved that in crises he can “mount to heights of physical and spiritual heroism; .do not these partially enunierated qualities constitute an enviable racial endowment? Apart from the native, qualities, the American, Negro can lay glaim ty actual accomplishment. His progress within fifty years is remarkable ‘beyand dispute, he has produced men of ability, he has produced the only national achievements that America has to offer to the world, Negro folk lore and Negro music, and all of the Indians, from Alaska to Key West, havent done’as much. + This sort of talk about the Negro's“nferiority is only an echo of what the Romans were saying about Senator. Bacon's ancestry 188, than.wo thousiind'years ago} $0 he did wisely to put that one thousand year limit on his genealogy.

Don't forget the Old Rose Room and the Beef Steak Garret A NEW COOLING PLANT. NEXT week, commencing Monday, July 6, the Lafayette Theatre management will put on a big midmatter bill which promises to be the largest card offered at this popular Harlem amusement institution since the advent of the heated period. The bill will be headed by the Fifth Annual Byrons, one of the classiest musical acts in vaudeville, who made a decided bit at the Lafayette Theatre some months ago. The Byrons Brothers have just returned from a successful tour over the Orphium. Circuit, going as far West as California. Since last seen in Harlem new acclimacy and costumes have been provided for the act. Another thrill of big-time calming to be seen on next week's big bill will be Sirené Navalte, formerly of Brown & Navalte. Miss Navarro has the strongest dancing act of any colored woman on the stage, and is the only colored female toe-dancer before the public. She carries special scenery and displays many pretty costumes. Although most of the vaudeville houses and several of the motion picture theatres in the vicinity have closed for the summer months, Messrs. Morgansern & Walton are horically fighting to keep the Lafayette open during the dull period for the benefit of their patrons. This week, the later cooling process was introduced and the theatre is now an ideal summer resort, and the theatregoers need not have fear of sweltering. The theatre is made pleasant by the circulation of chilled air through the radiators, tons of ice being used to frappe the atmosphere. Billy B. Johnson, Harold Gardner and Leonce Johnson headed the bill at the Lafayette the first half of the week. Billy B. Johnson is doing the comedy work in the act, Leonce Johnson continues to score in her songs, while Harold Gardner, who has just made his debut as a performer, presides at his piano in entertaining fashion, "Chinese" Walker and Grace Johnson, Rawley & Gerard, Allie Johnson and Magnolia & Carmen were the other acts on the bill. The concert given by the Clerf Club at the Lafayette Theatre Sunday afternoon between the hours of 3 and 5 was an artistic success, and although the heat and many outdoor attractions materially affected the attendance, the music-lovers present were unanimous in their praise of the high-class entertainment provided by Deacon Johnson's musical aggregation. Next Sunday afternoon will mark the Clerf Club's third and last appearance at the Lafayette. NEGRO ATHLETES WIN AT FOUR MEN Saturday, July 17, was banner day for colored athletes, who showed up well at four meets. The Salem-Crescent A. C. scored ten points and won third team prize at the annual junior track and field championships of the Metropolitan Association held at Schenectady. The Smart Set A. C. scored two points. For the Salem-Crescent Roy Morse won the 100-yard dash in 10 1-5 seconds. P. J. White was beaten by inches for the inners in the 220-yard dash and was placed in the La-Beet, general manager of the Salem. The second in the running, hop, step and jump contest with 42 feet 10% inches. For the Smart Set A. C. Walter H. Powe placed third in the 801yard run. Wins Phillips-Jones Meet. While their team-mates were winning third honors at Schenectady the Salem-Crescens who remained here rolled up 13 points at the annual track and field game at Philadelphia, the Crescens association, held at Juniper Park, Long Island, capturing the point trophy. The Bronx Church House and the Mohawk Athletic Club were the Salem-Crescens' nearest competitors, with 10 joints each. Representing the Salem-Crescens were Horton Bronson, who placed first in the 880-yard run with 10 yards; J. Capers, fourth in the 220-yard dash with 8 yards; O: Hawkins, fourth in the 440-yard run with 12 yards; Foster, Bronson, fifth in the 220-yard race prised the one-mile relay race team placed fourth with a 212-yard handicap. Diamond and Butler Break Records. In Chicago Blinga Dismond of Chicago; University and Sol Butler of Rock Island set up new records at the Central States try-outs for the exposition games. In the face of hot competition, Dismond, in winning the 40-yard gun in 48 3-5 seconds, set a National A. A. U. record. The old record of 49 3-5 seconds was made in 1896 by Burke of the Boston University. Sol Butler made a new Central A. A. U. record when in the broad jump he covered 24 feet 2/4 inches. Ravenil and Granger Win in Newark. Representatives of the St. Christopher and Salem-Crescent clubs, together with the Granger brothers, running unattached, were winners at the annual games of the Newark Young Men's Christian Association held at the Federal League Park. W. B. Granger started from scratch in 1940, handcuffed and won in 52 1-5 seconds! Granger, as usual, trailed behind the leaders until the last few yards, when with a sudden sprint he shot into the lead. Leo Granger with a 27-yard handicap placed third in the 1,000-yard run. James Ravenall of the St. Christopher 1000-yard dash from scratch in 10-15 seconds. n the broad jump. A. A. U. handicap. B. Lauder, Salem-Crescent (22 inches). won with a leap of 21 feet 11 inches.
