Ward, who enjoys the distinction of being the only Negro to have operated in the base hospitals of the A. E. F. in France. Maj. Ward is an Indianapolis phy- sician at the time an officer's train- ing was opened at Des Moines, colored men gave up his large terror and became a candidate for a position. When the training school received the Army officials had no intention of enrolling Negroes, in the Medical Reserve Corps, so Dr. Ward turned to become an officer in the in- stitute branch. Later on a decision was reached to injection colored physicians and admit them to the Medical Reserve Corps. Dr. Ward was one of the men who just received the recognition of the Negro leader in the National Army. Upon leaving for France last year Dr. Ward was a captain in the 321th Infantry Battalion of the 92nd Division it was at Base Hospital 49 at Allurey tarsce that he was permitted to operate in the soldiers, attracting favorable attention' among many offices where he had been sent a convoy, he received word of his promotion from a captain to a major.

Washington, D. C. The taking out of two marriage licenses by prospective grooms to wed one young woman revealed a matrimonial mixup last week in which Dr. Henry S. Pope, a leading pharmacist of this city, Dr. Godfrey Nurse of New York City, and Miss Bessie E. Miller, a well-known teacher in the Washington schools, were principals. Dr. Pope and Miss Miller are said to have been sweethearts for several years. In the District of Cohimbia the consensus of opinion was that they were engaged to be married, and they were. They had planned to have the conubial knot tied last Saturday and arrangements had been made to spend the honey moon at Atlantic City. Dr. Pope took out the marriage license on Thursday. Dr. Nurse and Miss Miller are said to have known each other for two or three years. Of late they have carried on quite an extensive correspondence. Wednesday, Miss Miller is said to have written to Dr. Nurse announcing that she was about to be married to Dr. Pope and reminding the return of her letter. The following day a telegram was sent to the New York physician and one Miss Miller sent him the meantime securing a marriage license. They visited the minister.

C.—Herman M. Hernelot Moens, the white "fake scientist" from Holland, whose activities in alleged anthropological studies among colored females of Washington have set society all agog and created turmoil in the public schools, has been sentenced by Justice McCoy to the maximum penalty of one year in the penitentiary and $500 fine, following the conviction of Moens in Criminal Court No. 2 for exhibiting obscenity pictures, after the most sensational trial that this city has ever known. Moens' plea for a new trial was overruled prior to the announcement of the sentence by Justice McCoy. The attorney for Moens has noted an appeal to the Court of Appeals and the convicted ex-anthropologist remains at liberty under a bond of $3,000. It may be several months before the case can be heard by the Appellate Court. In the meantime, the Parents' League, formed by the people as an instrumentality to work a reform in the unsatisfactory school system of the Capitol, is going ahead with its program, under the energetic direction of Mrs. C. M. Turner, its president, and the leaders declare that there will be no letup in their efforts until the schools are purged off the teachers who have been responsible for the malicious administration charged by Mr. Turner should not change has been made in the administration whose "Criminal no hooey" law brought the educational schools to a low clobber in morality and discipline. At a monster press meeting in the three weeks prior, Metropolitan A M. Church choirs also have been made by influential ministers. Lawyers have arrested citizens criminally, and the press has issued an invitation for a purification of the local schools, for the preservation of the muscle and intellectual well-being of our youth of the future. The substantial support the people are giving is evidenced by the fact that nearly $1000 has been raised at the collection tables with little or no effort. Jason H. Kalton, a former practitioner at the District hospital, has been retained by the Parents' League as least one of the several educational institutions from K. F. Horton E. M. Hewitt and others. Hill, will be associated with him in handling the details of the hospital's medical and justice in the public South. The commissioner of Mrs. Charlotte Hunter, the chief offender against the toddlers, gives small comfort. She is so worried but keeps in the window that it is hard to see the life of the school system in the general feeling that she has been ordered by the law to live with the hope that her representation will satisfy the demand at the people to official blood, and that the equal rights ones will be up.

Opposes Admission of Negroes in American Legion on Same Basis as White Soldiers New Orleans, La.—Although colored men and white men fought side by side to help make the world safe for democracy, John H. Parker of this State is opposed to these same men sitting side by side upon their return to America. What Parker personally thinks is of little consequence, but his un-American attitude shows that even the world war has not broadened some who think and speak in terms of color Harlem Subscribes $10,000 First Day of Victory Loan Over $25,000 was subscribed by the colored citizens of Harlem Monday. The first day of the great Victory Loan drive for $4,500,-000,000 and from the interest and enthusiasm displayed. Harlem will be represented during the campaign. Parker is the same individual who was active in forming the Progressive Party some years ago and advocated that Negroes be given scant consideration. Like the Vardhamans, he gets into print by attacking the Negro. Therefore, it was not surprising to hear him spout about "white supremacy" at a meeting of soldiers and sailors held last week for the purpose of organizing a State branch of the American Legion. The advice of Parker was that the National organization at the convention to be held in St. Louis ought to prevent colored veterans from participating as this would savor of "social equality." The speaker declared that colored men should understand that their work on the battlefields of Europe was appreciated, but did not give them the right to have the say in shaping the future of the American Legion. Parker's English Talk. Parker's rantings are published in part merely to show the kind of fan American he is and his strange idea of what "true democracy" means: "Send from each Congressional District in Louisiana delegates to the St. Louis convention of war veterans with a white man's message." "My belief is in the American soldiers and sailors. They are 99 per cent pure and whole Americans. I do not believe that the members of this organization would become Bolshevik and let Bolshevik gain a foodbomb in the United States. The power for good that you can ever be almost unlimited and I believe in the power of the white man." "Send your dear wife, the missive. If you want to in the or missive, put her down in the white man's hand. I will try to do or action on the White man's hand." "I don't believe in the order of the white organization must be in order subdisors subor to the orders of the white organization of the United States." "I don't believe in the admixture of whites and blacks with a white delegate, even here and here. A white delegate is there." Here are the terms for the future South: "Unlimited white men of the United States." The speaker called attention to the absence of anarchy and Bolshevism in the South. He pointed out that the South had Early answered the call to arms and saw that the white sons represented the whole blood'sream. Parker failed to mention the records that more colored men were recruited and served in the National Army from Louisiana than white men. He also came from Pennsylvania, the region of mollown in the south when speaking of the abolition of amends. EXTRA!

Upheld in Contention That Colored Men Should Serve on Juries West Virginia Supreme Court Reverses Decision of Lower Court.Because All Jurors Were White Men. (Appointed to The New York Age) McDONALD, W. VA.—Colored men are now serving as jurors in Raleigh County, W. Va., and the courts of the State have reduced the sentence of Rock Young, who was convicted of murder in the first degree, from life to four years, as the result of the novel plea entered by his attorneys that the defendant was tried exclusively by white men. Young was given a life sentence in the Criminal Court of Raleigh County on January 9, 1917, for the murder of G. G. Booth, a white Deputy Sheriff. He had no funds and Brown W. Payne, of Beckley, and J. H. Ellis, of Oak Hill, both colored, volunteered to represent him. His counsel appealed the case on the ground that Young was denied the equal protection of the law; that the Grand Jury which indicted him and the petit jury which tried him were composed solely of white men; that all colored men were not permitted to serve as jurors because of their color. is visiting her daughter, Mrs. Laura Boutellies, of Morris street, having come from Washington, D.

Undigested food delayed in the stomach decays, or rather ferments the same as food left in the open air, says a noted authority. He also tells us that indigestion is caused by Hyperacidity, meaning there is an excess of hydrochloric acid in the stomach, which prevents complete digestion and starts food fermentation. Thus everything eaten sours in the stomach much like garbage soures in a can forming acid fluids and gases which inflate the stomach like a toy balloon. Then we feel a belch up of gas, we erubate sour food or have heartburn, flatulence, water brash or nausea. Coupled with this condition of the stomach a case neglected and a chopic case of constipation—and you have the worst enemy known to mankind. In a case of this sort it is best to take a Laxcarin tablet twice a day, morning and at night, until the entire condition is remedied. The remedying of a condition of this sort usually depends upon the length of time the person has been suffering from indigestion or constipation. Because one can expect to remedy an abnormal condition which has probably been lasting for years within a few weeks. However, it is safe to say that almost immediate relief it experienced directly after taxing Laxcarin for a few days. While relief follows usually the first tablet or two, it is essential to keep up the treatment to neutralize the acidity, remove the gas making mass, start the liver stimulate the kidneys and thus promote a free flow of pure digestive juices. Laxcarin is very inexpensive and it is made out of pure vegetable herbs. It is absolutely harmless and it us used by a great many people.

Another evidence of the degree of self-help which the race is manifesting in the matter of Negro education in the South, referred to in these columns a few weeks ago, is furnished in the report of fthe campaign carried on under the auspices of the Rosenwald Fund for better rural schoolhouses for colored people. This campaign was started in June, 1914, and possibly the most interesting part of the work has been the manner in which the Negroes in small communities have responded to the call to raise money to meet the conditions of Mr. Rosenwalds' offer. As described in the report: The offer of help from Mr. Rosenwald is usually made in a community meeting where every family, as nearly as possible, is present. At this meeting pledges are made, either in cash, labor or material. In many cases farmers can do hauling. In some instances, the timber is donated by the patrons from saw timber on their land. In such cases the patrons meet in the woods, cut the saw stock, carry it to the mill and have the lumber sawn on shares. In one of these meetings where pledges are made, a widow of 90 years, subscribed $1.00 toward the building. The next day she was seen at the community selling ginger cakes which she had baked. In this way she succeeded in raising the amount of her pledge. In many communities the children are organized into Busy Bee Clubs, Willing Workers, etc., for the purpose of raising money to meet Mr. Rosenwald's offer. The volume of this self help is attested by the fact that the total sum given by colored people as personal donations is put at $342,925.59. When the methods by which this money is raised are considered, it will be seen that it represents no little amount of self-sacrifice and devotion to the cause of education. A people who can and will help themselves in this way cannot be kept down. ORGANIZED EFFORT. The need for organized effort of the first element of the race in the struggle for civic and social betterment cannot be too strongly emphasized. Especially is such effort likely to be effective, when individuals of both races are associated in the movement for improvement of existing conditions. The truth of this statement is strikingly apparent in the situation presented in Harlem, where the necessity for so many welfare agencies to serve the great needs of the large population concentrated there is apparent. Much has already been accomplished through the concerted effort of such organizations as the Urban League, the Young Men's Christian Association and the Young Women's Christian Association. But the field is wide and the room for further work unlimited. In Fri. Act of February 15 the author of the resolution on lynching, presented to the City Legislation of Women's Clubs, was referred to as Mrs. A. Mitchell Palmer, wife of the Alen kinney Christodian. This was an error. The resolution was offered by Mrs. A. M. Palmer, known through an clubland as the president of the Ramy Day Club of America. There is a demand for children's playgrounds, a public bath and other civic improvements, which could be ultimately covered through obtained officer and pressure exerted upon the proper officials. The appointment of more colored officer on the police force would inobligedly work for a more, thor- The Rotary club has demonstrated a notable degree of public spirit by taking the initiative in the movement to establish a boys' club in Harlem, for the benefit of the colored boys of that section. The plans include the establishment of a clubhouse with the proper accessories, as well as a summer camp. The purpose is not only to provide play and occupation for the boys' There is also much for a greater degree of tolerance and dignity in the discussion of differences in public meetings held in the purpose of serving the aims of social improvement. Blatant and irresponsible individuals who have never done anything for the good of the race or the public, should not be permitted to interrupt speakers and disrupt meetings called to decide upon definite policies. There are too many of these "sea lawyers" among the race whose only stock in trade is the ability to criticize and pull down, while never contributing to the work of construction.

The service rendered by the Negro race in this branch of the service, although limited by the policy of the department, should protect them from such efforts to lower them in the eyes of foreigners. Why the Navy should permit exhibitions so destructive to morale is hard to conceive. Secretary Daniels, who has evidenced his so- The people who are really striving to do something for the future should continue their efforts, despite the braying of the obstructionists, who are doing nothing for themselves or anybody else. From the Americus (Ga.) Times-Recorder we glean that they are preparing a demonstrative reception in that neck of the state of Georgia for the returning colored troops. The Times-Recorder comes out in an editorial article under the heading: "CLEAN UP THE LOAFERS—WHITE OR BLACK." The words, "white or black" in the heading of the article must have been an afterthought, for we have read the entire double-column editorial and find no intimation that the Times-Recorder classifies a white man who has enough money not to need to work or is too lazy to work as a loafer. To the mind of the Times-Recorder, a loafer is a colored person who does not work, and in its article it seems to be struck by the fear that the number of loafers in Americus will be greatly increased by the return of the Negro soldiers. One of the big problems confronting the South with the return of the soldiers, of both colors, will be the race problem. And it will be the race problem from an entirely different angle than that with which the South has had to deal in the past. The black soldier, who has gone out into the world and found a new place for himself, is coming back home with a spirit that is going to make it difficult for him to assume his proper sphere. The white soldier is coming home with admiration for the way the colored men from his own Dixieland fought, but with pictures burned in his brain of revolting scenes of the mingling of the races in France, where the Negro problem is not at all understood and where the Negro is made much of by the whites on every occasion. This is certainly a fine frame of mind in which to get to welcome the men who have been fighting to help make the world safe for democracy. Of course, it is needless to ask the Times-Recorder what it considers to be the "proper sphere" for black men who have been fighting the country's battles; we already know the answer. But we would like to ask the Times-Recorder if the white people of Georgia intend not only to refuse to treat with justice and humanity black men who have been fighting the country's battles abroad but intend also to give them extra hell because the French people didn't know any better than to treat them as human beings? The manner in which the French people received and treated the colored American soldiers certainly cannot be charged up to any fault of these soldiers. If there is any fault about it, it should be charged up to the French people, and if anybody is to be punished, they are the ones. Why not declare war on France for that purpose? Undoubtedly, the "mingling of the races in France" was a terrible sight to be witnessed by a white man from Georgia—and a good many not from Georgia, for that matter—but there was no reason why the pictures of these "revolting scenes" should be "burned in his brain." Any white Georgian who has reached the age of maturity can look around and see equally "revolting scenes" in his own state; the only difference being that in France it was not against the law. The Times-Recorderemoans the fact that there are trying times ahead and that the average Negro, consciously or unconsciously, is doing as little as possible to head off the storm. What storm? we should like to ask. There will be no storm unless the white people of the South get it up, and if they do they should be careful not to get up a storm that they can't manage after it is started. The indolence and utter untrustworthiness of a great mass of Negroes who work for a living and upon whom the white people—both in the homes and in business and on the farms are dependent, since the arrival of the day of high wages are a SCANDAL, and a DISGRACE to the black race. Ask any white woman and she will tell you it is impossible to get a servant in the home and keep her more than a day or two—or a week at the outside, no matter how light the duties or how high the pay. Here is a contradiction which is worthy of the spirit in which the editor of the Times-Recorder is writing. He would have us believe that since the advent of high wages, the colored people have grown indolent and untrustworthy and simply won't work. This is absurd. What sensible person could be made to believe that the Negroes of Americus and vicinity were industrious and worked hard when wages were low, but stopped when wages became high? The truth of the matter is that so large a number of colored men were so industrious and worked so hard under high wages that they found themselves able to keep their wives and daughters at home to do their own cooking and washing. And that is why so many white women in Americus will tell you that is "impossible to get a servant." That's the rub; many of the white women in Americus can't get a servant. Of course, it is annoying; but do not let the white women of Americus feel that they are alone, women all over the country are having the same trouble and for the same reason—higher wages. The Times-Recorder in one part of its article lifts up its voice and weeps thus: The white man of the South has ALWAYS been the Negro's best friend. But even a best friend can be abused, and the Negro, now that he has the opportunity, is abusing his best friends to the limit. That is just about the funniest thing we ever read in a serious newspaper. Let every Negro leader of the community point out these dangers to his people. Let every Negro minister from his pulpit next Sunday "read the root act" to the leaders of his race and tell them in plain, unmistakable words what will be the ultimate consequences not only to themselves, but to the industrious Negroes as well, who always suffer with the worst of their race, if they do not change their ways. licitude for the Negroes in the men who fought in the World war.

Stern times are ahead—they may be nearer than we dream. The fate of the Negro is largely in his own hands. If he WILL NOT solve his own problem, GOD HELP HIM! It seems like a waste of emotional energy to get as worked up as that over the fact that "Miss Mary" and "Miss Jane" can't find a cook or a washerwoman; so we suggest to the Times-Recorder that it calm itself; things may not be so bad as they look—to the Times-Recorder. As a matter of mere curiosity, we should like to hear the Times-Recorder state just how it thinks the Negro should sove his problem. ONE QUESTION OF THE WAR ANSWERED. The war posed a good many hard questions. All through the war there was speculation as to what effect the war would have on this or that thing. And there were a great many answers to these questions. Some people tried to answer them by making a mere prophetic statement; others attempted to reason out an answer by taking into account the forces that were at work. But the general opinion was that nobody could tell, that we would simply have to wait and see. One of the important questions raised in this country was: "What effect will the war have on the movements of alien people to and from the United States?" Some predicted that the close of the war would see a great rush for America. They reasoned that the devastation in Europe, the enormous war debts and general depression in all the European countries would cause as many people as could get away to seek the easier conditions that would prevail in the United States. Congress itself was of this opinion. On the other hand, there were those who predicted that the breaking up of the old order in Europe would open up new opportunities, and that the alien in the United States, with his pockets filled with war wages, would want to get back to his native land to take advantage of these opportunities. Those of this opinion also reasoned that many of the aliens who stayed in the United States through the war would be anxious to know the fate of relatives at home, and besides, there would be the general curiosity to see what had happened. Well, the war is over and the answer is being worked out. Since the signing of the armistice aliens have been leaving the country in increasing numbers until now they are going at an average of more than a thousand a day. Since the signing of the armistice nearly 75,000 have left, and each emigrant is reporting as taking with him a sum ranging from $1,500 to $7,000. The exodus is so great that it is causing alarm in some quarters, and there is talk of taking steps to check it. It has been pointed out to these emigrants that once out of the country they cannot get back in; in reply they state that they do not want to get back in, they are going to stay. Some of them say that they will have to go to jail when they get home for avoiding military obligations, but that they are willing to do so because when they are released they can live the rest of their lives in comfort. This whole question as to whether or not alien migration after the war would set in toward or away from this country involved interests that were vital to the American Negro. The economic foothold that the race gained during the past three or four years, the opening of fields of industry which had hitherto been tightly closed to it, the opportunity for hundreds of thousands of colored people to move out of the South and live in the freer and more civilized northern states and at the same time earn an independent living, all of these advantages resulted chiefly from the fact that at the outbreak of the war many thousands of aliens went back to their native lands to join their national colors and to the fact that during the war immigration was practically cut off. If the industries of the North which have opened their doors to Negroes had been able to retain or secure white labor, it is doubtful that they would ever have thought of giving the Negro a chance. And so the question as to which direction the tide of migration would take after the war meant a great deal to the Negro. There was no doubt in the minds of those who thought seriously over the situation that if the close of the war brought shiploads of hungry immigrants to the United States the newly acquired industrial position of the Negro would be dangerously menaced. There were those who felt that under such conditions the Negro would not be able to hold on. The war is over, and the answer to the question of migration is made, and is an answer favorable for the Negro. The aliens in the United States are going away and it is going to be very difficult for any of them to get back, and, besides, it now is clear that the countries of Europe are going to discourage if not prohibit emigration of their citizens. It seems that Providence is determined to give the Negro in America his economic opportunity, and the Negro must seize it. Byron R. Newton, Collector of the Port of New York, in commenting on this matter, is reported in the newspapers as saying: From every indication of this movement and from what the immigrants tell us of the intentions of their friends we can see no end to the outflow. The steamship lines are getting disturbed because their ships are now crowded to capacity. Congress is contemplating a restrictive measure. I think it would be well to restrict some classes, but we do not want these men to leave the country or to keep them out. One of the greatest needs in the labor situation today is for plain men with plain habits to do plain work. These men have been doing much work for our industrial establishments, and after they go I cannot see who is going to do it. Neither the American, the Irish nor the Jew is willing to do this class of work. I would rather have men who will build our subways than men who will build Soviets. Once out these immigrants cannot come back. We hasten to reassure Mr. Newton that our subways need not go unbuilt. There are many thousands of able, willing and loyal colored American citizens who will not only build the subways, mine the coal and iron, make the steel, help run the railroads, work in the factories, and help put up the buildings, but who when they have saved their wages will not go off to some foreign land to spend them. The time is still waiting for the great colored industrial leader who will be able to marshal the forces necessary to take possession of the field before us. ANCIENT PRECEDENTS.

NAVY DISCRIMINATION CHARGED IN SCOTLAND A letter from a member of the Navy, stationed at Inverness, Scotland, portrays some of the difficulties and complications to which the colored Sailors are subjected. His letter reads in part as follows: "From time to time the Venerable Y. M. C. A. officials (white) here have presented on board country, the participants being war wounded in the States and a majority of them coming from the southern part of the States. On all occasions as mentioned in these entertainers have not told us sing songs, to tell stories or to perform such dances as they would pull audiences that were typical of the American Negro; and during the tour of these different selections the terms "nigger" and "darky" were used and repeated. These terms were always hailed with great enthusiasm on the part of the crew and officers, and always repetitions of the same one of similar character. In conjunction with sain ment on board the ship, which usually attended by civilians in town, there has been going city a propaganda that has been deadly to the Negro in storms in the minds of the South that of Germany during the might say here that the capitol city of the South has and it is here that the government has established Base which is used for time laying fleet and the mine sweeping detachment of the United Consequently, hundreds of innumerable communities thrown in contact with minded, though usually a more people in their comprehension world outside of Great Britain have yielded too willingly the diicial propaganda of the Negro elements in the United States. As a result the colored sailer when the streets, is often met by civiles and nudges of ridicule, which tell it well the townspeople have received the marks. According to what I have heard me, the Negro has been presented to them as being only a mental in service in the States. The things they are such as these; he is a servant and is not allowed in any industrial or professional of any character, because he is not of performing such. Such lies are supplemented by movies that are made by American productions, showing the Negro in the fields of the south as banker or domestics, but more often as a character or doing any kind of work which shows him as mental capabilities or talents would allow him to compete with white man of America on any footing. "What we must participate against is the rendition on board United States Naval vessel of stories and dances which afflictment for the white members of while at the same time they Neuros.

This includes an ordinance lynching "as treason against our government and a criminal violation of rights of citizens." 2. Housing and sanitary provision for Negroes being "far below the standard necessary for wholesome living churches must "lead the way to this wrong." 3. In public travel it is Christian duty to secure for Negroes "as courteous treatment, as safe and comfortable provision, as for whites." 4. Education being fundamental to democratic and Christian progress, the platform calls for "more thorough, intelligent and liberal provision for Negro education." It is a hopeful day for Christianity and for enduring peace when Christian people begin to study local duties in the light of world needs. DOINGS OF THE CIRCLE NOTES OF THE Y.W.C.A. From time to time, the various units entertain the sick and wounded boys. This beautiful spirit of unselfishness and thoughtfulness for others made itself manifest on Easter Sunday when twelve young men from Grand Central Palace Hotel and twelve marines were debriefed and entertained by the Relief Society Emergency Unit No. 51 at their attractive club rooms at 2295 Seventh Avenue.

THOMAS, Freem. 213 West 83rd St. New York THE STAGE MUSIC ATHLETICS "The Noose" Is a Dramatic Commentary on Lynching in South (BY LESTER A. WALTON) HE NOOSE," a one-act play written by Miss Tracy D. Mygatt, which is an uncompromising exposition of mob law in the South—a dramatic commentary on that section's cardinal sin—is being presented every Saturday and Sunday evening at the Neighborhood Playhouse, 466 Grand street, by a well-balanced cast. The piece holds one's interest from beginning to end. Houston Clay, a prominent lawyer of Warino, Ga., dearly loves his wife, Margaret Clay, who reciprocates his affections. They have one child. On Christmas Eve Mrs. Clay, who has been away on a visit, returns home and finds her husband absent. From Pete Johnson, the colored hired hand, she first learns that a lynching bee has just been held and the suspicion dawns on her that her husband took a part in the beastly crime. Later on Clay puts in his appearance and reluctantly at first, makes the admission that he was a member of the lynching party. Then a spirited argument pro and con on lynching ensues between the couple, which is brought to a close by the unceremonious arrival of two of the mob leaders, one of whom is intoxicated and bent on lynching all the "niggers" he can find. They bring along the noose which is prized as if a string of Tiffany pearls. During the maudlin talk carried on by the visitors Mrs. Clay is shocked to learn that her husband tied the noose at the lynching. The lawyer is informed by his two friends that he has been picked to be the next Governor for having played so prominent a part in the lynching; that this "mark of distinction" had put him in a most favorable light with the political boss. Then the alternative of condemning lynching to keep wife and child or openly espouse this form of barbarity and become the next Governor is put up to him. He accepts the latter and his wife leaves the Clay home forever and anon. Houston Clay, with noose in hand, walks out of the house to meet those who would make him chief executive of the State. Curtain Margaret Clay's precipitate departure from home because her husband helped lynch a Negro struck me as a bit superficial. It was here that the wife became more like a character in fiction than in real life. Possibly this piece of acting did not ring true because of my knowledge that in the South lynching bees are attended and enjoyed with keen relish by both sexes. There are few, if any, cases on record in which happy couples have become separated because the husband was an acknowledged lyncher. Miss Mygatt would have enhanced the dramatic value of her play had she caused Margaret Clay to arrive just as her husband was leaving with his two friends to take part in the lynching. Dialog between the four characters, with the wife imploring her husband to remain away from the hanging, with the friends—Arthur Henderson, a partner and Warren Fite, a banker, urging him to come on, would have worked up a stronger and more consistent climax. William Rothschild, as Houston Clay, and Nell Vincent, as Margaret Clay, are both convincing. Ulysses Goldberg, as Pete Johnson, does as well as might be expected of one not familiar with Negro life. On Broadway nowadays the most progressive managers have come to the conclusion that the real thing is better than an imitation; for this reason they are using sure enough colored actors whenever the occasion demands. It would not be unwise for the management of the Neighborhood Playhouse to emulate this example. After witnessing a performance of "The Noose," I wondered if this radical probing of human life was going to bring about the results so greatly desired by the author. There is nothing new—nothing, bold in the theme, and despite the naturalness of its treat- ly written by Miss Tracy D. Mygatt, using exposition of mob law in the ly on that section's cardinal sin—is and Sunday evening at the Neighstreet, by a well-balanced cast. The beginning to end. ment up to the time Margaret Clay decides to make her exit, the subject is morbid, in fact at times offensive. Before seeing "The Noose" I had the pleasure of talking with Miss Mygatt, whose motives and sympathetic interest are highly commendable. But hard as I try, it is difficult for me to believe that an appreciable amount of good is going to be accomplished, by producing "The Noose" up this way. Although we have a lynching occasionally in the North, no one can deny that it is in the Soutfland where the burning of a Negro at stake has become a fad—a most popular diversion. "The Noose," for one thing, pictures the Negro to New York the atrogeers in the role of a rapist, and unintentionally, perhaps, stresses the point that lynchings are primarily due to rape. One also would glean that the Negro has a monopoly in this brutal practice. Statistics will prove that in New York alone more white men are arrested for rape than colored men in any Southern State during the year. Of course they are not tried by Judge Lynch. Lynching the Negro in the South for rape is seldom heard of nowadays. He is usually put to death for "talking back," for trying to defend himself, for suspicion and for stealing a cow. They are even lynching our women. It, therefore, seems to me that if lynching, with its unhappy and revolting realities, is to be inducted into theatricalism, its theme, despite the contention of some that "bad morality is bad art," should deal with lynching in a general sense. To-day whenever it is a case of one hundred against one, they mob a Negro in the South for being a "fresh nigger," which usually means that the victim has been "presumpfous" enough to want to be a man "for a' that and for a' that." When the branches of a tree are in a decayed condition it is necessary to cut off each and every one in order to save the tree. Amputating one rotten branch does little good. And so it is with lynching. In order to stop mob law in the South it must be treated as a general proposition. THEATRICAL JOTTINGS By Bob Slater Moss & Frye are at the Alhambra, New York.

The appearance of Wilson Lamb, baritone, in Aeolian Hall on Thursday evening, May 1, is being looked forward to by music lovers as a musical event of more than ordinary importance. The fact that Mr. Lamb will make his New York debut under the management of Haensel & Jones and that he will give his first recital in Aeolian Hall places him in the category with those deserving of serious consideration. Mr. Arthur W. Morrison will officiate at the piano. 4TH EDUCATIONAL RECITAL Mrs. Lillian Evans Tibbs and Miss Lydia Mason appeared on Mrs. Tapley's fourth educational program to a small but enthusiastic and appreciative audience. Miss Tibbs' voice is mezzo in quality with a good-range and shows training. Her poise, style are pleasant to look at and being a pretty young woman she has many things in her favor. Her songs were well chosen and well delivered. New York hopes to hear her again another season. Miss Lydia Mason is always a delight and her playing was enjoyed by all. Miss Mason is growing into young womanhood now and it has been a pleasure to watch her art mature. She shows good technique, a little faulty as to clarity sometimes, but these things will smooth out as she grows in experience we feel sure. There is color in many of the things she does, and time and study will do wonders for her. A Doubtful Compliment.

This season they are winning new laurels. These five talented singers and musicians are appearing nightly on top the New Amsterdam Treatie in the Ziegfeld 9 o'clock Revue and Midnight Frolic.

The quintet also appears every Wednesday and Saturday evening at the Lambs' Club, and for twenty weeks Messrs: Lightfoot, Thomas, Tisdale, Loguen and Smith have entertained the members with their selections. NEGRO FOLK SONGS TOPEKA, KANS.—Genuine, old-time Negro folk songs brought storms of applause from the audience which filled the City Auditorium at the community sing, given by the colored churches of the city and the. Educational and Industrial Institute chorus. The chorus of two hundred voices sang both classical and popular numbers; but the Negro folk songs, redolent of the Southland, touched the heart of the audience as did no other part of the program. "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot," with Miss Cora L. Boulder singing the soprano solo part, had a pathos and a charm that is seldom heard from a chorus of so many voices. The jubilee song, "Rise and Shine, the Light Is a'Coming," was equally good. The halluilejah chorus, with which the sing ended, was among the best numbers on the program, as was the Negro folk song, "Campe Meeting." Miss Ruby McKnight and Mrs. Cecilia Poole Thompson, of Shiloh Baptist Chur, were exceptionally good in a duet, "Land of Long Ago," which was followed by Carrie Jacobs Bond's "Mighty Like a Rose." Mrs. Robert G. Lackson, of Kansas City, a young woman with a high soprano, sang both solo leads in several of the choruses, and made a very favorable impression on the Topeka audience. The chorus, led by Luther Jackson, of the faculty of the Industrial Institute, showed careful and thorough training. A medley of popular war songs was one popular feature, sung by the chorus, in which Mrs. Robert G. Jackson sang several soprano parts. Mr. Robert Jackson, of Kansas City, was on the program for Handel's "Gavotte," but, according to Mr. Jackson, the pipe organ and the "Gavotte" did not go well together, owing to peculiarities on the part of the organ, which is in need of repairs. Mr. Jackson played a medley of hymns as a substitute, and was vigorously enceded. The Auditorium was practically filled, the audience being about half white and half colored. The chorus had been trained by Luther Jackson. It is planned to make the chorus of two hundred voices a perennial thing in Topeka. The pianist accompaniments were played by Robert Jackson and Malcolm Griffith. The affair was managed by the ministers of the different chats of the city, under the general management of Principal Bridgeforth, superintendent of the Industrial Institute. CHAMBERSBURG, PA. CHAMBERSBURG, Pa.—Easter was fitly celebrated in all the churches on Sunday. Each church had excellent exercises, and were beautifully decorated.

MARKS CHOIR TO SING AT CARNEGIER HALL "Martha" *Flotow*'s comic opera, to be rendered by St. Marka, American formateur Negro choir, at Carnegie Hall on the evening of May 13, is the most talked about affair in New York among colored people. Everybody that loves music extraordinary, or who are just music patrons or are simply interested in the musical achievements of the race, are talking wherever they go about the coming great event Prof. E. Aldama Jackson, whose name as instructor and composer hangs high in the music realm, several of his Negro spirituals having been accepted and published by one of the largest music publishing houses in New York, has sent broadcast the assurance that on this occasion Negroes throughout the entire country will, indeed, have something to feel proud of. This is not the first time that he and his choir have invaded Carnegie Hall under such ampleiculous circumstances, nor will it be the last. Each year they go there and make musical history, but in the edition of "Martha" every past performance will be cellled. Indications at the places where tickets are being sold show that many cities will have a full representation Washington, Boston, Philadelphia Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Jersey, Baltimore, all are sending representative crowds. As a matter of fact it is rumored among circles that are in the position to know that never before has there been such spontaneous out-of-town response to a musical in New York as is revealed by the demand for tickets for this affair. There is nothing that can be said about St. Mark's Choir that is not already too well known. Its claim to supremacy has never been contested, not even by the wonderful choir at Tuskegee Institute which Andrew Carnegie likened to the one of the Cathedral of St. Peterburg. Birthy voices that have been whipped into the finest shape by the genius of Prof. Jackson in several years, and that have to pre-eminence in spite of country wide competition, tell infinitely more than can possibly be put on paper. Those who have heard them before will naturally crave to hear them again, especially in the difficult rendition of "Martha," a remarkable ensemble of melody in which the artists must have rare ability to express fully all that the master, Fletow, has no carefully woven into its fabric. To make "Martha" a success, not simply from the composer's viewpoint, but from a point of transcendent musical accomplishment, every member of the choir has worked and is working overtime in the various parts, so that each will fit into the other with the accuracy and perfection of the delicate links of a golden chain molded by the skilled hands of Benvenuto. Get your tickets now. On sale at the office of The Challenge Magazine, 2005 Seventh avenue, or they may be from Frood Jackson, phone Merrimack 1305 or from any member of the choir. Mvt.
