C.-Two white men convicted of incest and three white men convicted of rape, all within the past month, is only a part of the record made by WHITE RAPISTS in North Carolina. From Mt. Airy, N. C., comes one of the most revolting stories the newspapers have ever had to record. Wesley Newman, a white farmer, with several grown daughters, was convicted of incest. The testimony showed that for three years Newman had compelled three of his daughter to submit to his lustful inclinations, threatening death if they resisted. He was sentenced to from thirty to sixty years in state prison. Another incest case was that of James H. Scott, a white carpenter, aged 54, who had, two years ago when the girl was only twelve years of age, made an attack upon his own daughter. Recently he attempted to commit the same crime against her daughter, and self-protection she called the police. She charges also that he accomplished the same purpose at various other times. Went Auto Riding. The opportunity offered by an auto ride was also taken advantage of by Wen Burke, a 22-year old white man of Franklinton, who was arrested and lodged in the Loussau jail charged with having committed rape upon Eva Kearney, a white girl 14 years old. It Two Sentenced to Die. J. E. Cline, a white man, was convicted of criminally assaulting a young white woman, and sentenced to be electrocuted on December 12. An appeal to the Supreme Court has stayed the execution and Cline has been taken to the state prison. Johnston county people are strongly opposing the granting of elementum in the case or C.L. Godley. Godley is another white man who has been convicted and is under sentence of death for criminal assault, and his friends are asking Governor Bickett to exercise elementum. In the Johnston county citizens opinion is regarded he will die for the crime which he committed.

Dr. Carpenter's family was out at the time, but another inmate of the house had started to the door when the bell was rung, and this person found Dr. Carpenter laying in the hall. The assistant had disappeared. Injuries Are Serious. The injuries inflicted are serious, but in bones were broken, and the shock and concussion are not necessarily fatal. The patient, under the injunction of his attending physician, is being kept in absolute quiet in order that his active, previous temperament may recuperate from the severe shock. No trace to the identity of the mistress has been discovered. It is believed that the attack was made by paraplegic because of severe pain matched by the Bridge Street Church pastor a few Sundays ago in which he associated certain parties guilty of the practice of renting furnished rooms to married men who used them for the purpose of meeting single girls and other women for immoral purposes. Following this sermon Dr. Carpenter absolved an anonymous letter which he the throat that he would be chosen to place if he continued his onetime antimagic. The following letter from the minister read this letter to the minister and reported this letter to the alleged immoral criminal letters were received from the church, declaring that the pastor would be injured and that the writer would get him despite all the efforts to protect him. Police Investigating. Police authorities were notified of these threats and it is said that a guard was furnished to protect Dr. Carpenter while he was on the street. The attempt against his life was delayed, however, until he was alone at hour. The attack is being investigated and the police hope soon to trace the act to its perpetrator. The perponage has been benigned by hundreds of members of Bridge Street Church and other friend, who have been compared in their condemnation of the criminal and who have expressed deep sympathy with the stricken pastor and his family.

The undersigned do not speak as sponsors for the rector's views of production, wealth, property rights, distribution, and his matters, but we recollect that he is right to his views, as we have ours. His frequent treatment of public questions, as is the practice of all preachers, who endeavor to keep abreast of the times, shows him alive to the needs of the day, according to his understanding and conviction, and to the needs of public issues as backed by any other purpose; than to give those who come within his hearing the light which he believes has come to him. The rector of St. Augustine is man of strong convictions, with the courage to express those convictions, and cannot be moved by foes on the one hand or opposition on the other; and in that we admire him, however much we may dislike or be not pleased with him, we are blessed.

Vt.—The directors of the Virginia Botany Company have here submitted the work of the past year and are endeavoring to answer that the finding remains accurate under the guidance of H. F. H.

A $300,000 deal in Harlem property has just been closed and announcement of the fact is embraced in notice of the sale of the Smithsonian, a seven-story high-grade elevator apartment house located at the southeast corner of 129th street and Lenox avenue, to Negro investors. The Roach Realty Co., 214 West 141st street, becomes the purchaser of the structure, making the deal with Nettie B. Moyse, owner, through the Rosalind Realty Co., J. L. Moyse, president. The Smithsonian covers a plot fronting 99.11 feet on Lenox avenue and 109.10 feet on 129th street. It is occupied by white tenants under leases that run until October, 1920. Within the last year Negroes have acquired a dozen elevator apartment buildings in Harlem, many of them tenanted by white people, the most recent being the seven-story building at the northwest corner of Seventh avenue and 137th street. As a result of the shortage of living accommodations the southerly limit of the so-called "black belt" has gradually been extended. Several months ago a number of Negro home seekers crossed the "line" at 130th street and purchased private dwellings occupied by whites in the streets to the south. There was an unconfirmed rumor in circulation recently that Negro investors had purchased a large property on 125th street.

MESERVE GIVES BINNER TO ROBERTS UP SHAW PRESIDENCY Jersey City Citizens Try To Stop Extradition of Man Georgia Sheriff Alleges That Negro Is Wanted for Murder-Governor Asked To Refuse Request. The new company is named as a tribute of respect from the Carr family to the memory of John O'Daniel, a Negro who for more than thirty years was a faithful attendant upon the late Mrs. J. S. Carr, senior. President Carr states that in naming the mill after Mr. O'Daniel, the family desired to give recognition to the faithfulness and willingness of a servant who believed in devoting himself to a full day's work each day. Mr. Carr believes that this recognition will prove stimulating to the race in general, in that it will afford tangible evidence of the fact that the South will give full recognition to every man, regardless of race, who devotes his life to honest and faithful work. Mr. Carr is a son of Col. Julian S. Carr, of Durham, a multi-millionaire, and is one of the strong friends of the National Training School for Negroes of which Dr. James E. Shepard is president.

There exists such a determined bias 'on the part of most white papers and writers, in dealing with the South, to charge all the crime, especially of a sexual or bestial type, to the Negro, that it becomes necessary every now and then to point out the truth that has been ignored. Of the sixty three Negroes lynched in the United States during the ten months ending with October of the year, only twelve were charged with rape or assaulting women. Yet in North Carolina alone, within one month five white men were convicted of rape and sentenced to be electrocuted or to prison. In two of these cases the victims of the assault were the daughters of the criminals themselves, and the practice of incest had continued for two or three years. Such cases are said to be more or less common among the ignorant whites in the South and the instances referred to here were taken from white newspapers. And yet the Negro is held up to public opprobrium as the only rapist in the South! He is lynched and burned without any legal evidence upon this charge, when a fair trial might in many cases prove him innocent. It is to be observed that the white criminal, no matter how bestial this crime, is given a trial before conviction and punishment. The black man charged with similar offense, should be given the same kind of trial and as severe punishment, if found guilty. But there is neither truth nor justice in charging all the brutal crimes committed in the South to the Negro. WATSON ON THE RAMPAGE Thomas E. Watson who now poses as the editor of a weekly sheet called the Columbia Sentinel, published at Harlem, Ga., went on the rampage a few weeks ago on the subject of "The Poor Downtrodden Negro." This Georgia editor, better known as Tom Watson, is a notorious demagogue who has tried all sorts of devices to rise to power in Georgia politics. In the article referred to he used the Negro as a club with which to assail President Wilson, charging him with making a secret deal with leading Republican Negroes in 1912, to effect his election. The absurdity of the whole performance is on a par with this charge, except that the abusive and outrageous language employed stamp the writer as ignorant or defiant of the deciencies of political discussion. While striving to depict the alleged monstrosities and atrocities "natural to the black race," Watson shows himself in the strongest light as a liar and a blackguard. Like that repulsive animal, the jackal, he even violates the tomb to revel in the carrion of scandal and to perpetuate a label upon the name of Booker Washington. The character of Watson's distinctions may be gauged by the fact that his strongest bit of evidence in the indictment of the Negro race is presented in the form of William Hannibal Thomas, book, "The American Negro." But Watson evidently overlooked the fact that Thomas, in his indictment of his own race, said: "The depravity of the race is a result of environment, well as an heredity and largely instigated by the intermarriage of white class, and it could to be evident that Negro regeneration is out of the question until the white race is forced into orderly methods of conduct. According to Watson's chief authority then, the worse he paints the morals and manners of the Negro, the greater the reflection upon the morals and manners of the whites. And it would be hard to imagine any degree of viciousness and savagery among Negroes equal to that demonstrated by the whites of Georgia in their lynching bees and human holocausts, participated in by men, women and children. But the thing that stirred Tom Watson's bile and started his venomous outburst on the Negro, was the following utterance which President Wilson is credited with having made to a delegation of Negro leaders in March 1918: "I have always known that: the Negro has been unjustly and unfairly dealt with; power over loyalty and patriotism that should command the admiration of the whole nation; he has rallied to the Negro's cause, and if there is host and evidence of slaughter manifested by the Iroquois men has not reached Prisonment. "Great principle of righteousness are worn by head, righting, and foot; with strength of your gown in the unmerited aid to Prison—out of the joy you must enjoy, ninth- long less than the enforcement of full citizenship rights, the terms are given enlarged by every other of us. Now, if President William these words, he speaks the truth with the clarity and conviction that have so far uniquely characterized his utterance. But it was not to be expected that an academic tolerance, like this should return to plague him upon the eve of a presidential campaign. Tom Wasson is a reprobate from all points of view. CO-OPERATION IN HARLEM. Encouraging signs of racial co-operation are becoming increasingly evident in the Harlem district, where the Negroes of New York City have largely grouped themselves. Among those actively engaged in this work of combining individual effort and capital toward a common object are both those of American birth and those coming here from other countries to avail themselves of the greater opportunities offered in America. Their co-operative efforts are taking form in the establishment of new business enterprises and the acquisition of real estate, both for business and residential purposes. The wisdom of this policy of uniting forces for the successful prosecution of business and commercial ventures cannot be disputed. Based on the sound principle of furnishing the community something that is needed and will be accepted at its face value, with reasonable care and proper management, these ventures should result profitably to the promoters and the investors. This Act is glad to see a policy that it has so long preached and advocated, put into practical effect. May success attend the development of the plans now in course of prosecution. NATIVE AFRICAN FARMERS. NATIVE AFRICAN FARMERS. That the native farmers in South Africa have their share of troubles caused by racial discrimination is revealed in a review of the ninth annual meeting of their association published in the Native Opinion of Kingwilliamstown. Among other things brought to the notice of the association were "hints of a sinister movement to curtail the rights of native agriculturists to purchase land to relieve themselves from the present congestion, especially in view of the projected immigration, as hinted in Government circles." A discussion of the Land Bank revealed that this institution, intended for the advantage of farmers, had received nearly five million pounds in government funds, mostly derived from native taxation. And yet in its constitution there was a clause debarring natives and other non-Europeans from membership. These two examples of restriction of the rights of the natives to purchase lands and to avail themselves of the advantages offered by the Land Bank, show that Senator France was not far out of the way in his references to the exploitation of the natives of South Africa under English rule. British or Dutch, it does not seem to make much difference. The native farmers of South Africa are almost as badly off as the Negro tenant farmers of Arkansas and Mississippi. The manifest design is to keep both classes in a state of peonage. But it will never succeed. The brutal attack upon the Rev. W. Spencer Carpenter, pastor of Bridge Street A. M. E. Church, has aroused the sympathy of all lawabiding citizens of the Borough of Brooklyn. Dr. Carpenter's real in the cause of righteousness and activity in prosecuting a campaign against vice were undoubtedly at the bottom of this cowardly and vicious assault. It is to be hoped that he will recover speedily from the injury inflicted and that his assailant may be appreciated and pay the penalty for such an atrocious assault. At a union service of the colored churches of Boston, on Thanksgiving Day, a resolution was adopted imploring clemency for "the twelve members of our race sentenced to death for the Elaine riots." This was telegraphed to President Wilson, Attorney General Palmer and Governor Brough of Arkansas. President Wilson was petitioned to request the Governor to grant reprieves "pending impartial investigation." As the trial and conviction of these men was such a travesty of justice, the propriety of an impartial investigation, is self-evident. The State of Arkansas should be saved from a judicial lynching. Relatively immune to the serious effects of the hookworm disease, is the report of the International Health Board as to the Negroes who were found infected. While frequency of infection was about the same as the whites the Negroes did not show the same predisposition to other diseases or the same reduction in mentality. The examinations made among United States soldiers showed that many who harbored but few hookworms, had the mentality of children of 12 years of age. Hookworm is peculiarly a disease common to the poor whites of the South and the peons of Porto Rico. To its prevalence in the Southern States is attributed much of the native indulence and sloth that characterize the native whites. A remarkable feature of most of these health reports is the fact that they being added testimony of the resistance that the Negro presents against disease. Jazz music and jazz dances have not received a warm welcome in Scotland, according to all reports. The campy Sage greeted the innovation with the query, "Why should we adopt the jazz when we have the jig and the Highland flute?" Why indeed? VIEWS and REVIEWS By James Welkin, Johnson, Contributing Editor THE SORT OF THING WE ARE UP AGAINST. On the complaint of certain colored citizens of Washington that colored people were being discriminated against in the restaurant of the Congressional Library by the newly appointed superintendent, the National Advancement Association took the matter up with the chairman of both the House Committee and the Senate Committee on Library. Both these chairmen replied that the Superintendent of the Library was a Presidential appointment and that anything relating to his conduct of that institution would have to be taken up with President Wilson. The Association then wrote to the President regarding the matter. And this is the way the New York "Tribune" gives publicity to the correspondence with Mr. Wilson: RIGHT TO EAT WITH WHITES IS DEMANDED BY NEWORS. The Society for the Advancement of Colored People is seeking to force the concession of the right of Negroes to eat with white persons in the restaurant of the Congressional Library at Washington. That organization made public yesterday a letter to the President, protecting the policy of segregation, which it declares is now being pursued by the officials of the library with regard to Negro employees and patrons. The letter is signed by James Weldon Johnson, field secretary of the society. Here we have an organization making a protest against an infringement on the rights of the colored citizens of Washington, and indeed of the whole country, and the "Tribune" deliberately gives the entire matter a different twist, a twist for the purpose of creating public sentiment against a rightful demand. The facts are: If a colored person has business at the Capitol, if he is trying to see his senators and several congressmen from his state and has to wait around, as is often the case, the greater part of the day, there is not a decent place within a mile where he can get a meal. Notwithstanding that there are restaurants under the dome of the Capitol, ever since the present administration has been in power colored people have been refused service absolutely in these restaurants. The managers of these restaurants and lunch counters receive their right to do business from the Congressional Committees in charge of the Capitol and the Capitol grounds. Up to a recent time colored people could go across from the Capitol to the Congressional Library and be served there. This continued to be so while the Superintendent of the Library was a man from Boston. Now a new superintendent has been appointed; we don't know how a man from Boston has held the position so long. We don't know where this new superintendent is from, but we are willing to wager he is an impeccable, red-necked rebel from somewhere in Dixie. Since he has been in charge of the Library he has put into execution the policy against which the Advancement Association is protesting. Why does the "Tribune," which is supposed to be a Republican newspaper—although being a Republican newspaper doesn't mean much for the Negro in this day and time—why does it as a great metropolitan daily descend to twisting this legitimate protest on the part of colored people into a demand for the "right to eat with white folks"? For the information of the "Tribune," if it does not already know it, we will say that in this matter the colored people of Washington and the rest of the country do not care a single solitary damn whether any white people ever eat in the restaurant of the Congressional Library or not. What they are protesting against is this gross and open practice of injustice in a building owned by the nation and supported by common taxation, and against the humiliation and inconvenience to which they are subjected. "Eating with white folks" has nothing to do with their demand. What they are after is something to eat and a place in which to eat it. It is only the monumental egotism of the white man that allows him to think that colored citizens of the United States eating in a public restaurant conducted in one of the national buildings are seeking "to eat with white folks." WHY NOT? Harvey says in his "W" resigned their commission, they have generally seen a matter of record that a bricklayers are paid at the is a bit of Colonel Harvey see? The war is over, at its are "needed and more we don't a couple of thousands ancient and honorable annel Harvey says, it pays I not good bricklayers get is, they do not. It will be bricklayers are paid "at the day gets $2,400 a year when while a bricklayer gets $2 taking day in the year. If taking a week or two of rest are so much more useful time, and it might not be only fair and sensil at they do. Colonel George Harvey says in his "Weekly": "More than 2,000 captains have resigned their commissions in the regular army. It is reported that they have generally sought employment as bricklayers. It is a matter of record that army captains receive $2,400 a year, while bricklayers are paid at the rate of $2,862." Of course, this is a bit of Colonel Harvey's sarcasm, but why should it not be true? The war is over, at least for the present, and good bricklayers are"needed and more useful than army captains; so why shouldn't a couple of thousand or more of our army officers turn to the ancient and honorable trade of bricklaying, especially if, as Colonel Harvey says, it pays better? And why should not good bricklayers get more pay than army captains? The truth is, they do not. It will be noticed that Colonel Harvey says that bricklayers are paid "at the rate of $2,862 a year." A captain in the army gets $2,400 a year whether he is on duty or sick or on vacation; while a bricklayer gets $2,862 a year only when he works every working day in the year. If he is sick or looking for another job or taking a week or two of rest his wages stop. Since bricklayers are so much more useful citizens than army captains at the present time, and it might not be too much to say, at all times, it would be only fair and sensible that they be paid more money for what they do. HOW LONG IS LIFE? A despatch from Lexington, Kentucky, says that Dr. L. L. Nascher, a New York specialist, has arrived at Greasy Creek, Leslie County, to spend several days with John Shell, 132 years old, "the oldest person in the world." It is reported that Dr. Nascher will study Shell's mode of living, his diet and habits, in an effort to discover what has given him strength to survive so many years. Dr. Nascher has already made an exhaustive study of old age and is preparing a book embodying his discoveries. The chances are ten to one that the doctor in his study of John Shell will find some facts that will knock most of his former discoveries into a cocked hat. He is likely to find that Shell smoked a pipe, chewed tobacco and drank whiskey for more than a hundred years. If Shell is 132 years old, his great age cannot be attributed to any mode of living, diet or habits that other people in general can follow. It can be attributed, perhaps, to three things: a strong constitution, a happy disposition to start with, and to luck. It is needless to say that he must have started with a strong constitution. A happy disposition was equally necessary, for it is worry that shortens more lives than work; it is worry that burns up the life force. Shell evidently has a disposition that does not allow him to worry about anything. Now, if one is not born with a strong constitution and a happy disposition they are handicapped from the start, and no amount of study of Shell's constitution and disposition is going to help them very much. But luck has played a great part in keeping Shell for so long a time on the outside of this old earth. He has lived in the moun- tain region of Kentucky, where wholesome outdoor life was the natural thing; perhaps he has never been out of those mountains. He has lived where there was not much to worry about, and he evidently has a disposition that wouldn't let him worry, even if there was. Under all these conditions the only thing that could have taken Shell off before he withered up and passed away was an accident. Some accident like disease or an epidemic or a railroad or automobile smashup, accidents on which men who live in busy communities and who get around the world take chances with every day. Shell is extremely lucky in that he has not been killed in a Kentucky mountain feud, for Leslie County is next door to the famous Breathitt County. Perhaps Shell's happy disposition had something to do with this. But, after all, is the length of life to be measured merely in years? A gopher lives for a hundred years in a hole in the ground, but he doesn't get as much out of life as a fox terrier does chasing cats for a dozen years. The question is, how long has John Shell in the fastnesses of his Kentucky mountains, away from the work and worry, the depressions and the thrills, the disappointments and the victories of the big world, really lived? Measuring life by what a man puts into it and gets out of it, if John Shell has lived 132 years, Theodore Roosevelt lived a thousand. BOOKS FOR READERS AND WRITERS. My desk has been piling higher and higher with poetry. I have wanted very much to write something for these writers of verse, but the strenuous times of the past six months have kept my pen busy with other subjects. Nevertheless, I have never forgotten the poets. In fact; I am ever mindful of them, for I feel confident that some day they are going to do more to bring recognition to the race than all the polemical writers that have ever written. During the past month or two, while riding on the train, I have put in my time reading several books about poetry as an art and a science. These books will be of great interest to all people who find pleasure in reading poetry; and for those who write verses and wish to improve themselves in the art, these books will be of inestimable value. I read four books; they were: "The Writing and Reading of Verse," by C. E. Andrews; "The New Voices," by Marguerite Wilkinson; "Democracy and Poetry," by Francis B. Gummere; and "Convention and Revolt in Poetry," by John Livingston Lowes. For those who are still in the amateurish, imitative stage, who are still using the old singsong rhythms and the threadbare rhymes and phrases, "The New Voices" will be an especially good book to read and study. For those who are ready for a study into what really makes poetry, "Convention and Revolt in Poetry" will be a revelation. DIXON AND THE IEGRO PRESS. Rev. A. L. Austin, missionary. Attending the funeral were Mrs. Thomas Dixon, notorious because of the authorship and dramatization of "Leopard Spota" and "The Clansman," and "The Birth of the Nation," blew down a town in an interview with a reporter of one of the local papers, his opinion regarding the Negro press and suggested what he thought should be done to them in the following paragraph. "These papers are not only around the worst elements of their race, but they are actually preaching anarchy. It creeps out everywhere, and it because of the darkness and indifference that they should be suppressed." It is no small wonder that Mr. Dixon thinks the Negro press should be suppressed, because it is a thorn in his heart. He argues that the very same Negro press has caused him to lose many a dollar, which he unscrupulously would have garnered at the expense of the peace army of the two races in this country. The Negro press, as never before in its history, is rendering a very great and necessary service, not only to the Negro press, but to that the more than 200 papers are acting as a unit in calling attention to the injustice, wrongs and discriminations practiced upon the race by its enemies, in defending it without fear or favor. The Associated Press in the biggest flair and one of the worst enemies the race has to deal with in this country, the associated Negro press is continually exposing its lie it is called radical. Sam Jones, the evangelist, was went to say, "Whenever one sometimes flinks a stone in the dark and you hear a the howl, you may know that something is there." The application is very plain.

BY WILLIAM PICKENS "Colored" "Colored" "American" "Nike, Eggs" Which one of these terms shall we use to designate a team? Any one of them may be used, with a reason. I have used all of them in the course of the conversation, but with a reason. When we saw all of the many shades of color this American Negro group sang all the way from "chalk to charcoal" called them "Afro-Anglo-Saxons." Let us apply the reasons. They "colored." That term is plainly applicable to the dark-skinned people of the world. But this term is also wider than group and may connote all the white races of all the world and all history. In other words, when we say "formed men," we could be speaking to Chinaman or a South Sea Islander. The term is therefore correct for dark-skinned Americans, but not specifically for white Americans to use it. But it is a very general and therefore not exact. Now let us take "Afro-American" This term is more specific than "colored"; but it is too specific. For there are millions of Negroes, indeed, we are not Afro-American. They may simply African, or Afro-Asiatic. Afro-European, or what-not, and be biogroup, if they are African. Afro-African descent among the American people, this term "Afro-American" is exact. The great war repudiated hyphenates, of course, but wars cannot repudiate gramat, as an fact; so that this term is an exact descriptive designation of a group. But is it not plain that this name, "Afro-American" is a description of a group rather than the name of a race? It is a historical and biogroup of the group peoples of the world are left out when we use this term. The great mass of Negroes is not American but African—and besides, this hyphenated term is clumsy and smacks of hybridization. Now as to "colored Americans." This term has the defects of both the other two; the generalness of "colored" and the historical-graphical limitations of Afro-Americanism. Afro-Americanism is the latter, and only less general than the former; for indeed the Afro-American is not the only Colored American. Chinese-American, Hindu-American, Philippine-American are all colored Americans. Lastly, the term "Negro." Whether we like it or not, we must admit that this term is for a whole world. As a designation it is both specific and comprehensive. It is neither general nor defensive. When we say Negro man, we mean a man of that race or stock, whether he be native or inhabitant of Africa, or America, or Europe or Asia, or naturalized anywhere at any time. This term is applicable where the race is related to only one country—whether he be Afro-American (colored American), African, Afro-European, Afro-Asiatic, West Indian or what-not. It must be admitted that this term, as a racial designation, is the most scientific; it designates a race and not a place on the map or an accident of history, but a human stock. They receive dignity. The group or the individual gives the dignity to the term. The term Negro be hateful and ugly because of certain associations, any other term in the whole dictionary would soon be ugly and hateful also if it had those same associations. The word itself is a breath of life; this is the idea called up by that word-sign. The black, brown and yellow Americans must eventually dignify any proper social name. The word Negro fall into bad reputation with some people because of its use—or abuse. People have seemed to oppose "Negro" to humanity itself; they have said "a white man and a Negro," or one might say "a man and a mule,"—if the Negro were not of the genius homo. It would be more appropriate to "a white man and a mule" (or colored man and an Anglo-Saxon (or Caucasian) and a Negro). Some others have overworked the ill-sounding "Negress," until it appeals to colored people like tiereus, or lioness. We occasionally see Jewess, but these feminine forms are ineligible when applied to human beings. And some have spelled Negro with a little n; just as we spell mule with a little m. This is ungrammatical; for Negro is not co-ordinate with white; it is co-ordinate with Caucasian. But black mule is co-ordinate with white; and should be spelled with small letters. To assert otherwise is to disclose either gross ignorance or arrogant dishonesty. And besides, the term Negro has often been iniminatingly used by those who were trying to alienate or decizenize colored Americans. We speak of "the American people," plainly meaning white folk, and then we refer to "Negro as a color." But the same group logically and constitutionally would make the Ne, to a problem himself. But that is not what we sinuate. One small brained fellow was so far as to tell the population of little Pennsylvania town in this way many thousand Jews, so many hunts Poles, so many thousand Americans, and two sand Negroes. "A matter of the two thousand Negroes were hundred per cent American, and no doubt of the oldest American age of any of the groups." This cunning misapplication of otherwise good term NEGRO in itself at his alienation or dehumanization to many colored people in the United States, especially in the North and East. The term "Negro," as a common jive, once meant black; but words not stick to their etymological meaning; they do not mean what they "meant," they mean what they mean. And the same group now means people of any color, if they happen to be of a certain descent. In spite, therefore, of bad grammar and worse manners, this term Negro in the best designation of this particular racial stock. Men have tried to belittle the Negro, but they have belittled everything else that belongs to this group; its line block, and brown colors, its wonderful physique, and its unique vocal powers—What must the group do? Chicken names? May it be called chicken? No, it is not for its right to vote. The density of its name, whatever the reason, will still be the group rose. CHARTERED STATE CHARTERED STATE C-2223 Are You Sure Your Blood Is Pure? WASHINGTON, D. C.—The wounded soldiers and sailors of the Walter Brad Hospital and Mt. Alto Inn were given a reception at the camp community center, by a commission of women under the general direction of Mrs. Catherine Cole. The program consisted of short talks by the Rev. A. C.

Green, who has conceived a long assignment as military attache at the Republic of Liberia and returned to this country a short time ago to assume duties in the Military Intelligence Bureau of the General Staff, with headquarters in this city, has been relieved from service in the latter branch of the War Department. Orders have been issued detaining him as professor of military science and trooper at Wilberforce University. Ohio, and he has gone on to assume his duties at that point. Lieut.-Col. Green served at Wilberforce University prior to the world war and made a splendid record. He is one of the ablest officers in the regular army of the United States, regardless of race or color, and with Lieut.-Col. Senjamah Oliver Davis, holds the next highest rank ever attained by a colored soldier in the army, the highest being Col. Charles Young, retired. Judge Robert H.

Therefore, nothing in life is more important than the condition of your blood. Your success and happiness depend on your health, and to have good health you must have pure blood. Some conditions of poisoned or impure blood manifest themselves by the aching of your bones, swollen joints and are almost always diagnosed as Chronic Rheumatism. Then there is a gouty condition and eruptive diseases of the skin, such as itching, torturing eczema, scrofula, chronic sores and chronic catarrh, all of which are caused by impure or poisoned blood. Some apparently trifling trouble may have been contracted years ago, and the poisons have all the time been accumulating in your system. Ask yourself the question, "Is my blood pure?" If you are deprived of life's greatest blessing, health, and you have reason to know that your blood is clogged with poisons that are causing you anxiety and pain, you should take one of the best preparations that modern medicine can offer- This splendid treatment for diseases due to impure blood is more than an ordinary remedy. A prominent physician worked out the formula, using some medicinal agents which authorities all agree are valuable in the treatment of constitutional blood diseases. And combined with these well-known drugs he also employed certain extracts of roots and herbs, which he found by repeated tests—in the many cases that came to him for treatment—to be of great value in eliminating certain poisons in the blood. This Prescription, now called C-2223, is still giving relief to sufferers, but being offered ready prepared, thousands are today receiving benefit where only a few were served by the originator, a physician. So great is the faith of the manufacturers in the merit of Prescription C-2223, that they will refund the price paid for two $1.50 bottles if, after taking the treatment according to directions, satisfactory relief is not experienced. Prescription C-2223 contains no mercury, strychnine, narcotic or habit forming drugs. On the other hand, it is composed of certain drugs, that are recognized by medical authorities as being of great value in the treatment of chronic troubles which are due to an impure or poisoned condition of the blood. In the use of the liquid Prescription, there is a 2223 Vegetable Liver Pill prepared especially to help eliminate the poisons from the system. This pill does not nauseate or gripe, and two or three a week will keep your bowels in a healthy condition. All drug stores sell Prescription C-2223 at $1.50 a bottle—the 2223 Liver Pills at 250 a package, or the 2223 Laboratory, Memphis. Tenn., will send both postpaid on receipt of $1.75. PETERSBURG, VA.

Alexander, vice surgeon in chief; affiliating physicians and surgeons: Dr. U. S. G. Jones, A. W. Harria, Jr., W. F. Clarke, U. S. McCoy, F. L. Brown and R. E. Burton. Dr. C. R. Alexander is the oldest physician in the city. The business management of the institution will be under Dr. Roht E. Burton. From November 8, 1918, to November 8, 1919, the record of the hospital shows that 176 operations have been performed at this institution 74 of which being major operations of a delicate and serious nature, with only the loss of one by death; a record which will stand unchallenged for some time to come. An inspection of the register of visitors reveals the names of many of our local citizens, among which are the names of the clergy: Rev. J. B. Brown, Zion Baptist church; Rev. Eli Taitt, Metropolitan Baptist; Dr. C. L. Alker. Prescription C-22223 the Great Blood Purifier ander Oak Street Methodist; Rev. S. T. Eldridge, First Baptist and Rev. P. H. Donghua, who is conducting a church at Birdville in close proximity to the hospital. At one time several churches lifted offerings regularly to support a Negro ward in the Petersburg Hospital (white), but for some cause the practice was abandoned. But a group of women have recently organized the Women's Auxiliary Hospital club, whose purposes are to maintain a charity ward in the hospital for the sick, needy and destitute. Such cases as may be sent to this institution by this or any similar organization which might be in need of an operation, the surgeons have agreed to perform without charge. "It is hoped that the churches will It is hoped that the churches will resume the practice again. CARLISLE, PA. Carlisle, Pa.-Mrs. C. R. Thompson, Fair Haven, N.

ALTHOUGH prohibition, at least so far as surface indications go, has struck Harlem with a vengeance, the fact reminds that Seventh avenue, between 131st and 142d streets, is no Sohara Desert when it comes to mirth and melody, flowing freely—no matter what the hour, John was on tap in abundance Thanksgiving eve at the Lafayette Theatre, when one hundred young men and women made merry, in the midnight friddle, ever under the auspices of The Association. Up in Harlem.-The Association is quite a popular institution. It is an organization of young men who are wont to congregate in the rear of Ship's tombal-empirium dat; and nightly, where pool and billiards are enormously played and where every problem under the sun is solved by argument in which noise predominates, over logic. It was from this institution that Andrew Bishop and "Eddie" Brown of the Lafayette Players were graduated. A part of the time is taken up by members of The Association getting their locks short and in the painless extraction of unwelcome "spamach" from their youthful chins; that is, such "major" operations are performed when ever Messes, Mumphrey, and Washington are in a mood—especially the former who is a talking old soul and imagines he is "Mr. Pool's" twin brother. The leading citizen of The Association is "Little Jesse" Shipp. There are two Shipps of known, and they are referred to as "Big Jesse" and "Little Jesse" respectively. The latter was nicknamed some years ago before he assumed an elephant proportions, but in recent years, Dame Nature who evidently possess a sense of humor, caused "Little Jesse" to go on an avoidance until he now weighs "Big Jesse" by one hundred pounds. Unlike his father, "Little Jesse" until Thanksgiving love never had been on the stage to be heroes in an ambition of some day demonstrate what he can do from the "honor point of view." Several weeks ago, shirts members of The Association presented him. desire to give a midnight show at the Lafayette, "Little Lesse" volunteered to hustle up the audience Henry Trauner produced the show, so the two to work, and with the assistance of the young men and women in the neighborhood, the most successful affair of its kind in Hailey was staged. With seats in the orchestra costing $2.20 and in the balcony $1.10, standing room was in great demand. Miss "Jerry" Brown and her corps of efficient users had all they could do providing seats and points of vantage for the eager firing. Turner Lafayette conducted the orchestra which was an uninterrupted and wide and thorough audience with all its And all the tar suits were not performed on the stage. The three successful candidates Adlerman elect Chris H. Roberts, Adlerman elect Grace W. Harris and Assemblendy Lester Hawkins, made short speeches from boxes, which Bert Williams toward the close of the show, hainted "Nobody from there he was comfortably enclosed." Hon. Charles W. Anderson appeared grateful because for once he was not called upon to participate in the outburst of orators. Hon. Fred R. Moore, another invited guest of honor, was compounded by his absence and even at home dreaming of the new. Of The New York As which has caused all Harlem to sit up and take notice. Part I have an insight of what goes on in the Association barber shop any old day, with E. Spearman, Frank I. Washington and L. N. Mumphres, members of the Lafayette trust, Avery Crouthers, Wille Nichols, Henry Creamer, Amy Cargentet, Ralph Littleton, Lester Shipp, J. H. and Miss Mabel Kelly, taking part. Creamer and Layton, in some of their new compositions, and Walker Thompson of the Ivy Saw Company were the chief entertellers in the old, winning applause. The trobe closed with a minstrel first part, Andrew Bishop officiating as interloueur. Both young men and women were all "dolled up" for the occasion in costumes of various hues, and while there was a suggestion of the amateur in the work, of some of the vocalists much of the applause was liberal and spontaneous. Harold Parker in "You Don't Need the Wine," assisted by chorus; David Watkins in "You Cannot Make Your Shimmy Shake on Tea"; Marion Laventore, who sang "In a Garden"; Roise Young, The Association's tiny star who appeared in a solo dance; Andrew Copeland's rendition of "Bob Bon Buddy" and "Adam Never, Had No Mammy" and the dancing contest, won by Eddie Rector, were some of the features of the minstrel-first part. The singing of "Everybody Wants the Key to My Cellar" by "Little Jesse" Shipp, who also unconsciously gave an imitation of a "hippo" doing the shimmy deserves special mention. The full program of the minstrel first meet follows: 1. Oversee Operations. The Entire Company. 2. In the Office. Control the Manager. 3. The Anybody Sell Creators. Jack Smith. 4. You Don't Need the Harold Parker and Chorus. 5. Tell Work Hours. Harold Parker and Chorus. 6. Small Work Hours. Harold Parker and Chorus. "TO-DAY" THIS WEEK'S LAFAYETTE OFFERING --- In "Today," patrons of the LaFayette Theatre are being treated to a strong dramatic offering this week, which is creditably presented by Miss Elys Elsid and her usual well-balanced supporting cast. Judging from the attendance, the play is creating as much interest in Harlem as it did about two years ago when it was produced at the LaFayette. The cast includes Arthur Simmons, Clarence E. Muse, Charlie Olsen, Missnez Clough, Mrs. Carlotta Freeman, Miss Opheia Muse and Mme. Ro a Lee Tyler. THE BLUE PEARL NEXT WEEK AT LAFAYETTE When "The Blue Pearl" comes to the Latayette Theatre for a week, run commencing Monday, December 8, those who weekly witness the shows at the Latayette Theatre will be given something out of the ordinary in that the coming production is a comedy drama in a prologue and three acts. A night or two after the "Bith Chair" appeared at the Latayette all Harlem hailed with delight an unusual offering, hence we say that "The Blue Pearl" is very much like the former show it can be seen that this section is in for another treat. Lake in the "Bath Churn," a theft is committed at a dinner party, and the guests are very much wrought up until the police solves the mystery and straightens out the matrimonial entanglements which develop. Instead of the trance medium there is an amateur hypnotist, and instead of Bernard Veller's atmosphere of books and murder the interest of the people is held in the ultimate fate of the beautiful jewel that was damaged beyond repair.

Since the resignation of J. Rosandow Johnson as superintendent, the Music School Settlement has been without a head. Mr. Martin was the first director of this work and after resigning founded the Martin-Smith School, which he operated successfully in association with Miss Elise Smith now Mrs. Nathaniel Dett. More concerning this later. Joseph H. Doughlass, violinist, has been engaged as director of the new musical society organized at Newark, N. J. The society will have a chorus and an orchestra, and the orchestra rehearsals have been held for a month in the rooms of the War Camp Community Center at 50 Academy street. A prize is offered for an appropriate name, the suggestions to be submitted to J. M. Staats, 135 Bank street. Major N. Clark Smith, now in Kansas City, is composing a set of songs which are intended to accentuate the traditions and spirit of the Negro people, both of Africa and America. "Muttering Thunders," referred to by the composer as "the oldest piece of Negro music existent," was sung recently in Boston by Rohan W. Hayes, tenor, who also sang "The Crucifixion," another of Maury Clark's compositions. These songs were used by Mr. Hayes in his annual record in Symphony Hall, Boston. Maury Smith delivered an address on race music at a city-wide chataqua conducted by the people of Des Moines, Iowa. Blind Boone, pianist, has been playing concertos in the East and lately applied in recital at Westfield, N.J. He is featuring an original composition, Marshfield Turndoor, inspired by an account of a storm which devastated Marshfield, Mo., in 1880. It is said to be a descriptive number of considerable merit, visualizing the storm and its attendant scenes. I have heard some 'descriptive' compositions, most of which were more or less realistic, but none of which contained any particular music motif. Blind Tom, the original blind Negro musical prodigy used to perform a composition insured by the patterning of a torn in a torn during the progress of a thunderstorm, and it proved to be realistic to a degree. However, Blind Boone will premise his position as a performer of concertos work, such as the Rhapodore Hunger戏, No. 12, by Lust, which I will perform in Westfield program, and by his waterfully retelegent memory which makes him to reproduce no, for note any composition after hearing it played once.
