The New York Age Interest Continues Unabated and Many Photos Are Received in Each Mail DR. KENNEY ON EUGENICS Unusual Address Delivered By Tuskegee Physician, Published in Another Column, Treats the Science of Better Baby Culture. CLEVER AND SMART BABIES Instances of Precocious and Bright Children Which Show the Negro Child to be Equal in Natural Cleverness to the Children of any Race of People in the World. TO BE REMEMBERED: The Better Babies Contest opened July 22 and will close September 2. Six silver cups will be awarded to babies of Greater New York and six silver cups will be awarded to babies from the country at large outside of Greater New York. The babies in both groups are to be divided into two classes, the first class up to three years, and the second class from three to twelve years. Photos must have written on the back the name, age, weight of the baby, and names and addresses of the parents. If the photo is to be returned enclose stamp for that purpose. Interest in THE NEW YORK AGE BETTER-BABIES' CONTEST continues unabated. In fact, there is a steady increase, not only in the number of photos received, but also in the letters of inquiries and of commendation. One of the most interesting features in connection with the contest is shown by letters received from persons who ask that they be given the address of the parents of some of the babies shown. One lady writes from Minneapolis, Minn., as follows: "THE AGE BABY' CONTEST EDITOR: "I would like for you to give me the address of whose picture was in THE AGE Thursday, July 29. I would like to write to his parents' for a picture of the same cut that was in the paper. I would thank you very much for the address or information where to get the picture." Every mail brings to THE AGE assurances from the mothers and fathers of the race's babies that the BETTER BABIES' CONTEST has aroused a deeper and more intelligent interest in the welfare and care of the infants. The Question of Eugenics. In connection with this BETTER BABIES' CONTEST attention is called to the address published in another column on this page delivered by Dr John A. Kenney of Tuskegee Institute, on "Eugenics and the School Teacher." In an unusual and most able manner the very capable and efficient Dr. Kenney takes up the question of eugenics, which is the science of the culture of better babies, and without mincing his words he goes to the root of the question. His address speaks for itself and all mothers and father- and those who contemplate taking up the joys and responsibilities of married life are earnestly urged to read it most carefully. In last week's Age there was given the picture of a baby from Ohio who had been a prize winner in a Cincinnati better babies' contest. This week we are showing a baby who was a prize winner in the district of Columbia. In sending the photo his parents send also the information that he was winner of the first prize at a baby contest in Washington in May, 1901. They say in their letter: Our fine son is only 18 months and weighs 24½ pounds. When his months old he won $5 in gold prize in a contest in May, for being the most perfect baby (Continued on page 4). BABY CULTURE FOR THE AID OF BETTER BABIES Dr. John A. Kenney Discusses Eugenics With Relation to the Teacher's Work Taskegee Physician Says 20 Per Cent of Women are Unable to Bear Children and 25 Per Cent are Unwilling to do so —Declares that Such Women Should Not Marry. Special to THE New York Ack. Tuskegee Institute, Ala., August 10.—One of the most unusual, and effective addresses ever heard at this school was the one delivered by Dr. J. A. Kenney, medical director in charge of the John A. Andrew Memorial Hospital, before the teachers in attendance upon the Tuskegee Summer School which closed July 23. Dr Kenney's subject was "Eugenics and the teacher." The teacher solemn eloquence the speaker handled without gloves the question of race suicide, denominated as the "crime of the age." Declaring his intention to call a spade a spade, Dr. Kenney took up first the social dance. He did not indiscriminately condemn舞 but declared that too little discrimination is shown in the selection of the dance partner. He declared that the rake and liberty are too often permitted upon the floor of the dance hall to take liberties with our best young mothers, wives, sisters and daughters. He appealed to the teachers to use common sense in removing the veil of mock modesty and prudery which has caused boys and girls to drift into bad habits through ignorance and brought about a general tendency to race decay. Referring to the science of Eugenics Dr. Kenney said that in its simplest terms it might be called the giving birth to better babies. It is not a new idea, he said, but only recently has it been recognized as a science. He declared that the eugenist contemplates baby culture just as the agriculturist studies and discusses corn culture. Women. Unable and Unwilling to Bear Children. A startling statement was made by Dr. Kenney when he declared that 20 per cent of American women are unable to bear children and 25 per cent are unwilling to do so. Of the children born from the remaining 55 per cent one out of four die in infancy and many of the others become wards of the nation. With emphasis the speaker declared that women unable or unwilling to perform the duties of wife and mother should not marry. Dr. Kenney's address was in part as follows: "Today we shall call a spade by its old vernacular, a spade, and not a certain instrument of manual labor; a house shall be a house and not a residence. THE SOCIAL DANCE—All too long leaders, educators, preachers, physicians, college presidents and teachers have winked at this subject while boys and girls are growing up in vicious ignorance and present in mothers' mothers' away the possibilities of coming generations amidst unholese influences. Mixed Crowds at Dances. "My reference to the dance is not to unqualifiedly and 'unreservedly' condemn it but I say there is much about it that is disgusting and nauseating. For example, there is not sufficient discrimination shown in the selection of the dance partner. The rake and librine are too often permitted upon the floor of the dance hall, but the best young mothers, wives, sisters and daughters that would never be allowed were it not for the dance. A few years ago I was at a banquet tendered to our medical association in a southern city. A local physician and I were looking at the promiscuous dance. In a short we left. On the way we remarked: "That is one way strong objections to dance. Don't you know that some of the worst women in this city are on that floor?" On another occasion I was at a similar function in large northern city. Society appeared at its best. One woman in all that great audience seemed to shine above the rest by reason of her rich background, attractive figures, good dances. She was a dominant demand by our卫生顾问. The next day a physician resident in the city advised me that that attractive lady (?) was from the tenderliner and just bailed out of jail a few days previous, and many others present were in the same class. "All too long prudery and mock modesty have held away at the expense of common, sense while on the expense of drilling into habitus, immorality and a consequence there is a general tendency to racial decay. What a price to pay for silence! Through you, teachers, about 400 strong, representing some thirteen ferent states and perhaps 20,000 pupils, and many teachers and fathers, what a striking manner to sound the whistle that through you the light may be turned on this subject. The Eugenio Idea. The eugenic idea is not altogether a new one but has only recently been recognized as a science. Reduced to its simplest terms eugenics may be called the science of giving birth to better babies. Just as the agriculturist studies and discusses corn culture, as the eugenist contemplates birth culture. The demand of the eugenist is, that only fit children will be born and that they must be taken care of amide good environment. Strictly speaking,ugen- (Continued on page 7.)

OPPOSED FOR IUDGE Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 11.—Because as assistant district attorney, he often niad unfair, unjust and race-prejudice remarks, as well as openly and publicly boasting of the number of Negroes he has sent to the penitentiary, Joseph P.

Aug. 11.—The congregation of the A. M. E. Church on Tompson street, the Rev. Emory M. Watson, pastor, must moderate their voices and curb their zeal and the pastor must refrain from fanatic actions, according to Judge Dayis. Pastor Watson was arrested and carried before Magistrate Call, who held him for trial on Thursday before Judge Davis on the charge of conducting a nuisance in connection with his church. The judge dismissed the case but advised the pastor to warn his congregation to moderate their worship and also to exercise calmness himself in directing the worship. He was ordered to have the church windows closed during preaching. Marcuß Allen Baker, Jr. 8 months New York, New York Maud Evangeline Gary 6 years New York, New York John M.

MEN OF 25TH INFANTRY PUT STOP TO RACE FILM MEN OF 25TH INFANTRY PUT STOP TO RACE FILM Slavery Day Play Had to be Taken Off Screen at Barracks' Amusement Hall Attempts to Put on Plays Reflecting on Race at Hawaiian Military Headquarters Aroused Strenuous Objection from the Negro Soldiers, Who Were Supported by Many of the Officers. Special to The New York Agc. Schofield Barrack, Honolulu, H. T. The soldiers of the 25th Infantry, United States Army, stationed at this point, will not stand for the presentation of any play or picture film in the barracks' amusement hall which reflects upon the Negro race. This was shown on the night of June 8 when a picture play called "James Kirby" was put upon the screen. Advertised as one of the best pictures ever on the island, the play drew a large audience of officers and enlisted men. But with the flashing of the first scene trouble began. The film was staged in the south and the theme harked back to slagery days. It showed the young Negro girls being handled by the slave owners and traders, and when the soldiers saw that the house was thrown into an uproar. From every section came the cry, "Cut it out!" Film Causes Outbreak of Men. There are several officers in the regiment who do not share in the southernner's prejudice against the Negro, and they showed their objections to the photo play by leaving the hall as soon as the character of the picture was discovered. Their leaving was taken as a cue and half of the audience filed out, also. As soon as the men reached the outside the rocks began to fly. The roof of the hall was bombarded to such an extent that officers had to order the stopping of the play. This is the third incident of the kind in the past six months. Recently a local show came out to the barracks from Honolulu and played on a play called Down in Dixie on the oceansum museum offices the part of the officers prevented a riot and the mobbing of the players. The actors were glad to get back to Honolulu. The men have let it be known to the officers on a number of occasions that while amusements are desired, nothing will be tolerated that reflects in the slightest degree on the Negro race. Some of the officers make the claim that the trouble is caused by some of the recruits, but this is not borne out by the facts. Every member of the 25th infantry resent such pictures and plays. WHITE ROSE CHAIRMAN SHOWS HOME'S NEEDS Nothing can better make known the needs of the White Rose Industrial Home for working colored girls than this extract from the annual report for 1914, printed in 1915. Miss Mary L. Stone, chairman, has this to say: "The report will show what changes were made, and how the increasing demands on the Home were met. We are, however, always running behind the needs and the opportunities for service urged on us month by month as time goes on. The police in the president's report the increased number of those needing us, and served as best we could manage in our small quarters and with our inadequate means. Numbers have increased all along the line. I may mention the item of police in December, when usually paying inmates were obliged to apply for free lodgings and for a longer time while looking for work. The last days of 1814 brought a great loss in the death of our good friend, Miss Grace H. Dodge, whose abiding faith in our work have been invaluable in almost all the corporate existence of the Association. No way has yet been found to fill her place in financing the work of the Home. Budget for 1915 on the most economical estimate is $2,500. Our estimate for the year is $1,500. Deficit for the year, particularly pressing for the summer months, $1,000." D. E. Tobias, secretary of the committee which is striving to help the White Rose Home states that much interest is being manifested in the picnic to be given August 26. Tickets may be had from the White Rose Home, 217 East 86th street, or the secretary, 108 West 30th street. Telephone Madison 4773.

Successful Exponents of Important Factors in Business Operations to Speak Discussion to Embrace Three Important Business Groups Production and Manufacturing, Wholesaling and Retailing WHITE GEORGIAN TO SPEAK The Fifteenth Annual Session of The National Negro Business League at Boston August 18-20 will be One of the Most Important Ever Held and Will Embrace Many Important Features. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Boston, Mass., August 11.—To those who have watched the development of the National Negro Business League since its organization fifteen year ago, it has been to them something in the nature of a barometer of Negro progress. The program for this year, which has just been issued, indicates what rapid advancement the race has made along lines of commercial endeavor and shows that more and more business men of the race are getting to the basic principles of modern business. An analysis of the subjects included on this 1915 program finds the general thought behind the discussion falling into three great groups representing the three important factors in business, viz.: production and manufacturing, wholesaling and retailing. The subjects are so arranged as to show the relative interdependence of each factor upon the other and the importance of their successful operation upon the future of the race. Dragnet Over the Country. During the past ten months the League's secretary, Einnett J. Scott, who is responsible each year for these programs, has had his dragnet spread over the country searching for successful exponents of the several important factors of business operation, and his painstaking care is rewarded with one of the best and most comprehensive programs in the history of the League. When our business men and women can assemble once each year and discuss such subjects as Department Store Management, the Wholesale Poultry Business, Wholesale and Retail Merchandising, Merchandising Manufactured Goods, Railroad Building, Handling Real Estate, the Relation of Store Appearance to Store Development, Soap, Broom and Cigar Manufacturing and how to meet the Competition of Chain Stores, it is a sure sign that the race is getting away from the haphazard in business and getting down to the fundamental. Governors, and Mayors to Welcome. Aside from the addresses of welcome by His Excellency Governor David I. Walsh of Massachusetts, His Honor, Mayor James M. Curley of Boston; and His Honor Mayor Timothy Good of Cambridge, and the annual address of President Booker T. Washington, there are other very important subjects to be discussed by men and women of national reputation. Among them are Dr. John E. White, Pastor of the Second Baptist Church, Atlanta, Ga., who will discuss, "The Negro and the New South; Dr. James H. Dillard, Major R. R. Moton, and Miss Nannie H. Burroughs. An added feature this year will be "Remarks of encouragement" from representatives of some of the leading business publications of the college press; the president of "The Fourth Estate," paperman's magazine of New York City; and a representative of System are expected to be present. These gentlemen will bring a message of good cheer and encouragement from organizations doing a similar work among the white business men. Important Features on Program. Among the more important social features as announced on the program are following: On Thursday, August 10, 2:30 p. m. to 5:00 p. m., a trolley trip has been arranged by the Boston League to Hilsburg, including Concord, New Hampshire Hill. From 5:00 p. m. to 7:00 p. m., reception by citizens to delegates and their ladies at the Unity Social Club, 228 West Canton street. At 8:35 p. m., reception by the Cambridge Negro Business League, H. H. Poucher, presides over the State Armory in Cambridge, just across the Harvard Bridge. Address of welcome to Cambridge by Hils Honor, Honorable Timothy Good, Mayor.

E. B. Du Bois for the appointment of a tommission to Haiti, One of two commissions have been-sent to Haiti within the past year, but y there is ‘special wisdém in Dr. ‘Dat Bois’ suggestion in that it au- vocates the appointment of: a commission upon which _ the American Negro would be repre- sented. What the United States needs to do in its present dealings with Haiti, ijt, wishes to accomplish the greatest. good, :#s to, convince the Haitians that in those dealings zace prejudice will have no place : “no, Better step toward this tnd -could be taken than the appoint- ment of a commission as sug- gested. : ~ The Evening.

THE BUSINESS LEAGUE. “The annual meeting of the Na- Hionab Business League will be held this year af Boston, August 18, 19, 20. Boston és the city in which the League was organized fifteen years ago, so the coming meeting will have an added interest. Reports: from ‘Boston indicate that the attendance will be the largest’ in.the history of the organ- ization: this’ is encouraging as pointing not only to the growth ot the League, but to the steady prog- ress the race is making in getting into touch with the spirit of the age, ‘ Within the last generation there has been no more important racial smovement than, the organization of the National Business Teague. At the time of ,its organization the ‘American Negro ws already seri- ously considering his political, so- cial and educational problems, put it.was the Business League that woke -him to the. importance -of taking practical steps lo solve his ecanomic problem. As a result of the work done by this body, the race is to-day alive to the fact that substantial progress cannot bé made for:any great distance along any line unless there is corresponding VIEWS “AND (REVIEWS Yaaens W! fonts, Conraisutina Eocibe: - meron pnb tt pP PPP Dp THE -HAITIAN- SITUATION. -.._The Haitian Minister at Washington, Solon Menos, acting on a redohition of the Hattiai Setter has called at the State Departineat and.asked for assurances from the United States that the integrity and independence of Haiti would not be impaired by the American dceupation, "It is most likely: that this Government will give these assiltifices, for such an action will be only in accord with the long established policy. of the United States, with regard.to the Latin- American republics. . ae The’ case of Haiti ig almost parallel with that of Nicaragua; there is, however; this difference, it will require broade® human sym- pathies and greater freedom from prejudice-on the part.of those who have to deab with the situation in Haiti than it required in dealing with the one in Nicaragua. For reasons well known, it is more neces sary to convitice the Haitians of the disinterestedness of this country than.it would be to convince the citizensof any other Latin-Ameri- can country with which the United States might, have to deal. The action of the Haitian Senate indicates that the Haitians themselves realize that they’ are facing a grave national crisis, ‘We trust that this very, crisis will serve to bring tp the front-men of wis dom and of unselfish patriotism'who will be Capable of meeting fot only the present but also the future problems of the Republic. It is important that the colored people of the United States do not become, confused over the Haitian situation; that they do not low themselves t6 feel that the-steps taken by this Government were taken because Haiti is a‘Negro republic, The United States, has hefore now taken similar action in various Latin-American countries ; in fact, the international status of these countries-as between the United States and Europe compels this Government, under certain conditions, to take action whether it wishes to do-so ér ‘nat. The thing to be desired in Haiti is a stable. and at the same time, free government, a government that will allow and foster econ- omic and social progress. It is possible for such a result to come out of the present state af affairs, through tht co-operation of unselfishly patriotic Haitians and. the disinterested assistance of the United States. It is a result devoutly to be wished. _ . THE GERMAN CHANGE OF- FRONT. RE FCAT SED LHS VSTMans were POUNGing -tRet Way wWirougst Belgium ; they were beginning that ierrible rush which was not halted until they were right under the walls of Paris. “The German advance through Belgium into France was jti accordance with the plan of strategy for which the whole modern military organization ot Germany has been shaped; first, by a terrific blow, to smash France, then to turn to slow moving Russia For various reasons, some:oi which will not be known and understood until after the war. the plan failed. “Athong the known reasons are the valiant resistance of Belgium, the ultimate stiffening of the French forces and the unex- pected rapidity with which Russia moved, And yet, the plan was not an entire failure; spring found the German aod the Allied armies deadlocked along practically thé same line where last fall left them, ja line giving Germany the better part of Belgium and a very im- portant strip of France; and the whole summer éampaign has not materially changed that line. . Germany has now ‘directly reversed her plan of strategy : she now counts upon the inability of the entente powers to.break the dead- Hock on the west in the mean time, she proposes.to do to Russid what the original plans called for her doing to France. Ii she can smash Russia, she can then, bring an irrésitible force into action against France, England and Belgium. oS “At present, this second plan of strategy appears to he succeeding. The great city. pf Warsaw hasbeen‘taken and an effort is being made ta envelope the Russian army: If the Russian‘army is destroyed or cut off, it is hardly possible that the western Allies will he able to withstand the force that Germany will be able to hurl against them. But even if the Russian army is not destroyed or captured, the indi- cafions are that it will be so demoralized and driven so far into the east that it will be. months hefore it will again be in condition te threaten the eastern frontiers of Germany and Austria, In the'mean- while, Germany cag release millions of men from the victorious armies in-the east anid throw them against her enemies in the west. The collapse of the Russians has suddenly placed a different aspect on the war. France and Belgium are doing their, utmost. they can do no more; they cannot budge the Germans at any paint on the line, except at_a cost which is too terrible. The fate of the Allies rests on the ability of England to hold her proportionate share of the western battle line. Up to now she has failed to do so. It was expected that the spring would find ne million British soldiers at the front; there are, as yet, less than four hundred thousand. Eng- land's navy is playing 4 great part. but unless: England throws her proportionate quota of men into the field, the promise of the Allies to beat Germany to her knees has just now a very hollow sound. NOT SO IN MISSISSIPPI. Last week, in an article on capital punishment, we expressed the belief that the time must soon arrive when executions for crime ivill be abolished or when the newspapers will discontinue their pres- ent manner of handling notorious criminal cases, because our civiliza- tion is growing too high-minded and too tense for such exhibitions. The belief we expressed may apply to New York and some other com- ‘munities, in the effete East, but it applies in no way to the pristine and undegenerate civilization of Mississippi. - Despatches of a few days ago report that at Starkville, Miss., the lranging of two Negroes was made the occasion for a general holiday. We learn that the merchants af Starkville advertised’the hanging widely, and, as a result, 5,000 farmers, white and black, with their wives and children, from’ adjoining comsunities attended. “The executions were arranged to take place in a sort af natural amphitheatre where the gallows-served as a stage. The festivities began with the free dsitribution, of sandwiches and lemonade: soda fountains and watermelon wagons did a rushing business. Refore the main event of the program several candidates for office took the platform, or rather the gallows, and delivered political speeches. If the despatches are to be believed, the two condemned men were super-humorists ; they occupied seats to the rear of the speakers and joiued with the audienice'in appreciation of the oratorical efforts. They are also reported to have caten'several large'watermelons with keen relish and with profuse thanks to the donors, and to have joined heartily in the religioits exercises which preceded the executions. So it.appears that everybody had a pleasant time, even the con- demned men, The women had a chance to wear their best clothes, the children had an outing, the local politicians had a chance tp reach their constituency, and merchants of Starkville were, ng.doubt, re- paid for their gencrots outlay bythe résulting increast, in trade. economic and financial progress. Colored mien ind womerf all over the country are realizing more and more that the race must make itself an economic and financial factor to be counted: with. ‘That we must as individuals, go into trade. That we knust co-operate to establish great business enterprises. It is only in this waj that we can pro- vide decent and profitable employ- ment for our young ‘men and women wlio are’ preparing them- selves? that is, for those who do not go into the profession$, and all of them cannot do that.

In,this racé Lippincpty beat, the gun by two yards. : Morse’ experiences around New Yoric have not always heen as pleasant and agreeable.as in,Buifalo and in Canada. On several occasions there has been a notable tendency on, the part of the mect officiais in New York and viemity to withhold from Roy his just deserts, Tt was at Travers Island om Saturday, June 19, in the 100-yard dash, that there was a close finish. Only two judges were offi- ciating and one immediately proclame. Morse the winner. ‘while the other de- nied the figding and .contended that Alvah Meyer had won. A conference ‘was held and the white runner was given the race, but there were scores of spec tators at the finisti line who declared that Morse had won... . More's, California. Trip. . Atany.rale, was this decision whict Fesulted,;ndirectly in Morse having an oppérturiity -ta” winthe national junior 100-yard and senior 220-vard dashes. As told in TAr ‘Act; of July 29. F. W. Rubien, secretary-treasurer of the Ama- teur Athilenie Union, and. president 7 the metropolitan district. sent for More: and told him that he ‘lelieved the de- cision .at Travers Island meet was an injustice, ng bat the A. A. U, would make it passiblg for Morse to participats at the PahamasPacific meet by contrib uting $100 towards’ his expenses. The Rev. F. A. Cullen, pastor of the Salem M. 'E. Church, of which the Salemn- Crescent A. C. is an auxiliary, was pres- ent at the meeting with Mr. Rubien and accepted the moncy on behalf of Morse and the club. The members of Salem Church and of the athletic club aug- merited this amount and sent Morse on to San Francisco. Rubien’s confidence in Morse and his square action was justified on Friday, August 6, when Morse,: in the junior 100-yard dash, broke the tape_a winner in the wonderful time of 9 4-5. seconds. He was ahead of RE, McBride of the Denver A. C.,:who won the 220-yar dash in 21 seconds, one-fifth of a second faster than the previous world's record, who was second with “A. E Ward of Chicago third, Morse’s time was one- fifth of-a second’ under the junior A. A.| U. record and equalled the senior A. A: U.record. Saturday's performances by Morse were even more surprising.

Unlike Drew, though, Morse “can run his 220 even’ better than he does the short sprint. .This ne has proven on at least three occasions during the present outdoor season, "Morse first attracted attention at the Pringeton University open games at Princeton on May 1, where he ran third in the 100-yard handicap off one.and a half yards. Later in the month he astonished the athletic followers by fin- ishing second (close up) in a race at the “hundred” at Stamford, Conn, in ) 3-5 seconds. It was subsequently found hat’ the track was about 2 stride short. On June 13, at the Irish-American A.C. spring sports, Morse won off one and a half yards against a stiff breéze in “ten- one.” Six days Jater at the senior met- ropolitan championships at ‘Fravers Island Morse was placed second to Alvah Meyer in the 100-yard dash, when nany thought that he should have been given at least as good as a dead heat. | “Morse’s next start was at the Panama- Pacific eastern tryouts*in Boston, where re heat Meyer in his heat, but lust out n the final, Later in the afternoon Morse ran second in the 20-yard dash o Irving T, Howe of Colby College, hen the national champion at that dis- tance, losing the verdict hy less than al, oot. “It was on his running atthe neifopolitan championships and at the astern tryouts that the championship ommittce selected Morse for the trip n the coast. sand the little Negeo fier | indicated the committee's judgment to: he fullest extent. of “Morse has an action which is not actly perfect, yet.it gets him over the round _sntoothly and with very. little raste effort.

Negro Children Are Clever. The little chap looks to be bright and clever and the Contest Editor is not surprised to read of his smart things. The many letters received are interesting because of the examples of preoccupiness cited by. proud parents. The fact stands out that Negro children are as smart as any children in the world, surpassed by none, equalled by few. Only the lack of space prevents giving more of these letters in these columns. The cultivation of race pride and race love is one of the tasks of the mothers of the Negro race and the following interesting letter from a New York mother shows how well she appreciates the scope of her duty in this particular: "Enclosed photo of my little daughter, age 6 years, weight, 43 pounds; also, her colored doll, which she loves very dearly, as I do not allow her to play with dolls only of her own race. I am trying to make me a doll to be by daily teaching her to love whatever belongs to the colored race. I think every mother should surround their children with pictures and literature of our race that they may love one another and become united as all other races are. The only way to make race-loving children to train them for such. In order to have better babies, which of course will be better men and women, it is necessary to give your child fresh, nutritious food, regular hours for sleep, and above all, plenty of fresh air, which can be obtained in the kitchen and night, and the street is the wrong place to have your baby develop into a better baby or better men and women." Contest Drawing to a Close. There are just three weeks more of THE BETTER-BABIES' CONTEST. The last publication of photos will be made in the issue of September 2. All photos received in THE AGE office not later than September 2 will be eligible for the contest, but no photo received after August 30 can be reproduced in the paper. That is because the paper forms close on Wednesday, September 1, and the engraver must have photos two days earlier in order that the cuts may be ready for use. At the close of the contest all the photos will be turned over to the judges, a committee of seven capable and disinterested persons, who will make the awards, six for Greater New York, and six for the country at large. The pictures will be divided into two classes for each section, one class comprising the kiddies up to three years old, and the other class those to 12 years of age. All awards will be based upon the photos submitted. Keep this fact in mind—there are just three weeks more. YOUNGEST SON OF LATE PROF.

Burroughs, president, Lincoln Heights, Washington, D.C. is offering special inducements to one hundred exceptional girls who want to become proficient. In some profession or trade, Good position or experience will factor in the commercial device, printing, social service and d.墨istic service and arts. Courses offered at the school are domestic science and arts, literary training, fourth grade through normal, commercial, printing, social service, making, haskery, purity, gardening, hardship, millinery, music, hardressing, manicuring, massaging, mundering and housekeeping. Most Burroughs, in her announcement, take that healthy, promising girls, with both themselves and a desire, to mould into great and wanted men, who have been misfits and failures in other schools, or who have been sent to a new school every year. (Continued from page 1) ics cares little about you and me—is not concerned with the adult except as a means to an end. Could there be some means of people the world all over today with a fresh stock of babies, without the intervention of the man and woman, the eugenist would give us adults no further consideration; but since these things by nature are not possible and the eugenic baby can only come through correct parentage, those interested are forced to consider ways and means of purifying the present contaminated race of mortals—in order to fit them for the duties before them. "It has been stated that 100 years from now the United States will have accomplished what no other race has ever accomplished or it will cease to be as a nation. It is estimated that if the United States were to years from now every other child born in this country will either die in infancy or be unfit for self-support, thus being a burden upon society. Here is where the eugenist expects to get in touch with the people and thus change the mode of living so as to bring about a different result. At present one out of every four children born dies in infancy. Many of the others who live to grow up become wards of the nation, burdens on society. We can only perpetuate the race through a healthy childhood. "Twenty per cent of American women are unable to bear children and 25 per cent of others are unwilling; that percentage of others is increasing to furnish the offspring necessary to perpetuate this great nation. And then we consider that quite large numbers of our children per cent are unit, we begin to see the nature of our problem. The great majority of this 20 per cent are unable to bear children, the great majority of cases, contracted incessantly from their own, husbands. Twenty-five per cent more are unwilling. Here we run against the problem of race suicide. "The crime of the age." Wema Has; Maternal Instinct. The maternal instinct is deeply rooted in the very nature of every true woman. It is there whether she marries a man or not. It is something wrong. It is there by nature's decree, but contrary to this natural condition our artificial civilization is bringing about a condition that is not what young women today contemplates marriage does so with a proviso, and some have made their mathematical calculations and deduction with a pretense that is appalling to the uninhibited. "One will say, Yes, Mr. Lover, I will become your wife provided there are no children." Another will say, There are to be none inside of two children. Another will go these, one better and dictate there are to be none inside of three years and then only one or perhaps she may not permit two. Such statements would seem to be amusing and are they married than they process with their damnable practices. One writer states that in almost every family attempts have been made to prevent conception or to produce abortion, are they married than they process with their damnable practices. 700 miscarriages. "With all the emphasis at my command I say that the woman who is unable or unwilling to perform the duties of wife and mother should not marry and be pregnant, or engage in pregnancy. He would first ascertain if the contracting parties are physically qualified for parental duties. If not, he would prevent their marriage; but if physically qualified, the woman and no sentiment would be permitted to interfere with the production of offspring. YOUNG GIRLS AND BOYS YOUNG TEXAS VIEW TEXAS LYNCHING Serving for XYX, XYX Sarah Hale, Tex., Aug. 10, "Shim' Harris and 'Diecy' Bell, the two Negroes arrested in connection with the Grimes murders, for which Will Stanley was burned and to death early on Saturday morning, July 31, were liberated after an exhaustive examination in which no evidence could be found connecting them with the crime. They were told to leave town, which they did at once. The officers have expressed relief that the State Attorney and only actor in the crime although another report has it that the white man who was implicated by the Negro has been arrested. This is not apt to be true, as eye witnesses state that Stanley's evident willingness to talk was prevented by the unacceptable action of the mob which would not listen to the cooler leads who wanted to get all the information possible. Earlier in the day some of the mob had tried to hang a Neuro employed on the Grimes' farm, but Mr. Grimes' brother saved him by lowering him from the tree limb to which he had been hauled. Young Girls and Rows Viewed Lynch- ing. the mob selected an open space in the well lighted public square for the burning. The men searched through the alleys and side streets for dry goods boxes and anything else to be found with which to build a fire. When the flames were raging sufficiently strong, Stanley, chained and managed was thrown into them. He strung frantically and managed to roll out from the dames six times, only to be first back by the raging mob. When the dames had barricaded out, the charred body was taken out and hanged to a wire on a Chambers column sign. It was taken down later in the day, and in the potter's well section of the coloured cemetery. Investigation of Stanley's name at the Fort Worth address which he gave has been fruitless. It is probable that the name and address given were both fictitious. In the crowd viewing the burning were many women and girls of tender age, while the trees bordering the square were throned with boys. After the body was taken from the fire many of the people searched the ashes of the savengers and some of the women locked up with their belonged to be from the Negro ashes. The white people of the town are showing a desire to get the excitement die out. There is very little probability that any official action will be taken as to the violence of the mob.
