POINTS ON THE NEW NEGRO.
To the Editor of the New York Age:
In your Issue of January 24 we and
a new question. You also invite the
opinion of your interested readers on
the "New Negro—What Is He?"
This question provokes inquiry and
deep consideration by all patriotic Negroes. It does not seem an equivalent for us to endeavor to substitute the Negro of the past with a new person of this very day. If we understand correctly the principles to be pointed out are the virtues and qualifications in existence today that were not possessed by the Negro of the past.
To begin with, we intend to point out just what type of person we speak of as the "New Negro." The man of nature in this generation is the man
SPIRIT OF INDEPENDENT UNITY. This thought may be used with someimental effect. The Negro to today has this quality and he has used it with some telling effect in the past twelve months. We all know the history of unity in this country. It has proven itself an important factor to the under classed white man of the country, but seemingly this class of man has driven this spirit of unity to its currentity. He has waged war with his superior, boosting labor against capital, and this has worked out to be more of a detriment than a benefit. The Negro was distranchised from (Continued on Second Page)

The new building is occupied by the fact that the old quarters are far outgrown. The company is occupying the entire second story covering five stores, which it owns. With agencies in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Mississippi, Arkansas, Tennessee, Virginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia, the company is employing more than one thousand workers. The proposed edifice, for which plan are being drawn, will cost, it is estimated, about $150,000.

BALMORE, Md. - A strong sentiment for unification of the A. M. E. A. M. E. Zion and Colored M. E. Church was manifest here at the semi-annual sessions of bishops of the two churches last week.
Bishops W. D. Chappelle and W. L. Lor gave voice to this sentiment when the bishops of A. M. E. Zion Church paid a fraternal visit to the A. M. E. Church bishops at Bethel Church on Thursday of last week. The sentiment was reciprocated when the A. M. E. bishops returned the fraternal visit by going to the Pennsylvania A. M. E. Zion Church on Friday afternoon, February 13. Bishops W. W. Beckett and George C. Clement struck a responsive chord when they urged the unification of all colored Methodism.
Utrec Organic Union
Organic union was urged in a vote taken at the last General Conference of the Colored M. E. Church. It may also be strongly urged at the approaching sessions of the General Conference of the other two denominations. The coalition of all colored Methodism would mean a church with 1,500,000 members. The big event of the week was the dedication last Friday morning of Bethel A. M. E. Church. Addresses were delivered by Bishops Evans Tyree and C. S. Smith. An overflowing congregation saw $70,000 in mortgages burned that night that had been liquidated during the three years that the Rev. W. Sampson Brooks has been pastor. The Rev. W. R. W. Mance resigned as head of the Ministerial Connexional Council in order that his candidacy for the bishopric may not be suppressed. The Rev. W. Sampson Brooks, R. C. Ramson, J. W. Rankin, M. A. Forman, W. Decker Johnson, D. Gregg, W. T. Verson, A. L. Gaines, E. H. Hunter, M. W. Thornton, S. P. Felder, J. R. Ramson, J. J. Morant, R. C. Holbrook are among others mentioned for the bishopric. The Rev. H. J. Callis, F. M. Jacobs, E. D. W. Jones, J. A. S. Cole and B. J. Bolking were among those spoken for the A. M. E. bishopric.
HALTS EXTRADITION OF MAN TO GEORGIA
(Special to The New York Post)
NEWARK, N. J.-Everett Colby, a prominent lawyer, has been retained by the local branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, to defend Henry Smith (Italian Davis), who was arrested in this city a few days ago on a warrant from Cuthbert, Ga., charging him with shooting the chief of police of that town. Smith was trailed to this city when it was found that his family had left the Georgia town for Newark. Officials were notified to look out for Smith. Seeing the news of Smith's arrest in the Newark Evening News, R. W. Stewart began an investigation to find out the facts leading up to the trouble. In the meantime a telegram was sent to Governor Edward J. Edwards requesting him to refuse extradition until the investigation could be completed. On investigation it was found that the shooting was done in self defense, so it was determined by the local organization that everything possible will be done to assure a fair trial. His wife had secured counsel to fight the extradition at a cost of $150, but the N. A. A. C. P. got in just in time to save her. $125, Mr. Colby only charged $25, just to keep from saying that he takes care of this nature for nothing.
NEW WORKER FOR N.Y. URBAN LEAGUE
Plans for the enlargement of the work of the New York Urban League are gradually unfolding.

Chicago, IL.—This is a cold analysis of the Lincoln League meeting held in Chicago February 11 and 12. It is written without fear or favor. It is an analysis predicated largely on information voluntarily conveyed by colored men from the northern states who attended, and approved by many strong, unselfish men from the southern states. In one of the announcements of the proposed meeting it was said it was to be a "new deal." It was a "new deal," but from the same old deck, and it was also, a "raw deal" given colored men in states where colored votes are cast and counted.
While the comment I may make may piss the ephemeris off a few, and may please only a few, yet even the "strong-arm bride will recognize in it some truth.
The Lincoln League is now now pended from a traitorial order for good troiled, directed and manipulated is an and sentimental reason; of a man who organizes, which the colored men in North America about as unless a figure as would be the nature of Joseph in a picture of the Madonna and child. There was no place to put him. Joseph was not necessary to the picture, since he was not the father of the infant Christ, though the husband of Mary, with dal-
Rossee C. Simmons, as president, was advertised to deliver an annual address and the natural interesse was that an "annual" election would also be held, but it was presumably to expire, by the manumulator to announce that the annual election will be held in June —presumably about the time the Republican national convention convenes. Such a procedure might best suit the designs of such as could personally be benefited by continuing, during the pre-convention weeks, of a stalking letter as president:
The "annual" address was a continuous speech that began with the convening of the meeting at 10:30 a.m. Wednesday morning, February 11, and continued, with slight interruptions, until the meeting adjourned, about 12 p.m. Thursday, February 12. The address was a continuous vandelle stum. When he introduced Chairman Hay on the Republican national committee, Governor Louden of Illinois, and other white men, Simmons employed his customary mimicry of the bodily, etc., which "mean nothing," to elicit laughter from the gallery in a meeting where seriousness ought to have been of the 100 per cent variety. Even Governor Louden, when he rose to speak, after Simmons, anusured preface to his introduction, remarked that he knew the audience would rather hear him. Simmons because he was not anusuring. Whereupon a prominent Illinius chirped to me, "Can you but it?" A white man would rather heat fondness from a colored man than seriousness.
At an informal gathering of men from northern states—a gathering that was merely accidental, rather than by design, a process was expressed against the thrusting, by a few men in the League building from the South, of a national leader. It was the conquest of opinion, among those men from northern states, that the North will never stand for a leader who at a time may have been expelled or out

Star Chamber Conferences.
There were a multiplicity of conferences—star charters, sessions on the manifoldations of the house, it is stated both in these conferences most representig new them states or conventions by their absence and their absence was due to the fact that they had not been invited.
The league as an uphill bad nothing.
Cedar press conference in states where local news were and have their vote control were drawn to the meeting more than the choice to learn it their benefit was to the real trombon of the league was well founded or evened, but it was a leeward that their sleep was gas at least, not wholly erronea.
It the league ever expects to amount to a communal it it expects to elect the support of and cooperation from colored men in the North and colored men in the North, who have ever and always fought their southern brothers' battle it must relegate to the rear of the league lead-in.
Some Good Men Present.
This is not an embodiment of all colored men from the North who attended the meeting. There were many purists in heart. See Walter L. Colson of New Orleans, Wm W. McDonald of Texas, L. C. Napier of Tennessee, and others whose names may be credited who came to the meeting under the supposition it would be an assembling of white-hearted men without a suspicion that there were any selfish designs to use the race as a pawn to secure from white leaders selfish personal benefits.

to make the "New Negro." Never before in the history of the Negro has there existed such understanding as there is to-day among the brothers of the race. Responsibility for this concrete understanding may be attributed largely to the recent World War. The very heart of our race was called to defend our supposed country. Never before had there been such enormous numbers of our race and class called together in such timely affiliation. They thoroughly learned the everyday ways of one and another.
The army, of course, classifies its men according to their qualifications. This taught the Negro to respect his race brother as superior and taught him the fact that there were certain qualities which entitled his brother to be his superior.
THE SELF-DEFENDING NEGRO. This is a quality also that we might use in the forming of the "New Negro." If we will turn the searchlight of recognition toward this "New Negro" we will find that he is standing on the justification of self-defense. That the Negro has always been loyal and ready to defend his country he has more than proved. Look at San Juan Hill, where he went over in the face of the Spanish's shot and shell. And he was called to even greater sacrifice when facing the hell-fire of the German's artillery. This he did and proved himself an important factor in that triumph.
But the contrast between the Negro or the Spanish-American war and the Negro of the world war is that the Negro of today has returned with many benefits perhaps not anticipated by his white brothers. The Negro of today has not returned wondering what he is going to get tony of the war, but he has returned with only what he demanded from the war but what he should have always had and has never got.
The past years have yielded race troubles so that is nothing new. But the Negro of today has proved himself to be in consistent and when he offered self-defense against attacks he opened up a new unrest. The Negro in Europe won a name as the American hero, although he never captured a enemy who carried a box of stove-burning matches on his back to the world, or the "New Negro" would probably be called the "American Patrol" who has a determination to red America of everything he even looks like a "cracker."

THE NEW YORK AGE. SATURDAY. FEBRUARY 24
If you suffer from rheumatism or any of the diseases caused by poisoned blood, take Prescription C-2223. The use of this great blood purifier is almost the same as consulting a specialist, for every bottle represents what the originator and many other medical authorities on such diseases would prescribe for you.
Prescription C-2223 contains no mercury, chloral, strychnine, morphine, cocaine or other habit forming or dangerous drugs. It is a concentrated liquid preparation of certain drugs having marked influence on those diseases caused by blood poison which are produced within the system, as well as those which enter from without. Prescription C-2223 stands above all other remedies as an alternative of great power. It restores normal functions to those organs or tissues which are not naturally performing their full work; changes diseased conditions into conditions of health. It especially on the secretory organs, all removing impure products from the body.
A valuable aid to Prescription C. cathartic that does not alter or stimulate the secretions of the liver, regulates the bowel. It is known as the liver pill and sells for 25c. As one is a good, no bad effects result from their use, they can be used by young and old alike.
Prescription C-2223 is guaranteed and sold by all good druggists at $1.50 a bottle, or the complete treatment of two bottles and a box of Pills for $6. If you cannot be supplied, write the 2223 Laboratory of Pharmacy John Sand name, and address for literature, 1990 Almanac and a sample of the Liver Pills.

Not with that frost. But do it with (Kink-no-more) the greatest hair stratagemaking preparation on earth. Kink-no-more will straighten the highest kind of hair. Think about it—a preparation that all you have to do is to apply it on the hair and with a little combing the hair becomes straight, so it can last from six to eight months. Water nor anything else will make it kink again after it has been straightened. Kink-no-more is a wonder worker. He marvelously does it to its work that one can hardly believe their own eyes. It works has magic, and is unique because there is no other preparation. It is hard to find. I would do it for any head of hair that Kink-no-more will not straighten.
Kink-n-e-more is a vegetable compound. It is perfectly nonirritant and will not injure the scapular skin. It is mild, relatively mildly toxic. It it grows on a nutrient growth of healthy hair and keeps it soft and glossy. Remember Kink-n-e-more is sold under a guarantee to do all that it can do to prevent damage to hair. It is recommended on the receipt of $1.00 a regular size box of Kink-n-e-more, enough to straighten from one to two heads of hair. When ordering and registered other, personal money order or cash order should be given. When ordering for growth stimulant, Endeavor I can dispense for relief. Anyway, use carefully.

UNWISE SEGREGATION
In the insistence and emphasis laid upon the term of "Negro Harlem," there is danger of inviting and encouraging a form of segregation that does not exist at present and need never come into existence unless invited and encouraged.
The Negro residents of Harlem have much upon which to con-
gratulate themselves in the im-
portant factor they have become in the greatest city in the world. They should be proud of the fact that they are property owners and residents in one of the most eligible sections of the greater city, with all the resources of modern civilization at their command. They should emphasize the fact that they are American citizens possessing and exercising all the rights of American citizenship and also citizens of the Empire State with equal rights and privileges as all other classes of citizens. Also all they are citizens of no mean city as their surroundings in the way of improved housing, public schools and protection, public schools and protection, throughout cities go to work.
All these advantages are then as citizens on the great city of New York. They have two access to the courts, both as petitioners and practitioners, prosecutors and defendants, and equal and exact justice is accorded them. They are represented by men of their own race in the local and state legislative bodies and the latter law is open for their suiture. In view of all the advantages afforded the race in the metropolitan and the gradual diminishing of the disadvantages, it is not good indeed to lay too much stress on the same segregation. Racial discrimination among certain lines will continue to exist in a cosmopolitan city like New York, for a long time, but it will be along voluntary lines drawn and defined by the various groups interested. There will probably be a Jewish section on the East Side, a Negro section in Harlem, an Italian section in the neighborhood of the other street for years to come. But there need not of necessity be a "Negro Harlem," unless Negroes themselves may it. Let them continue their efforts to make them clear a permanent and potential factor in the development of the upper section New York City without dering them into social and identity or to save equality.
Segregation will probably continue in the schools and social work for a long time but in the matter of public schools and conveyance it has no place and no place should be attached to it. The Negroes of Harlem have many amplified opportunities to show their capacity for good citizenship by exerting their influence in behalf of the growth and improvement of the community, in which they are so important a factor. Let them work for better and more sanitary school building, for public baths and for whatever improvement Harlem needs of a public character. But do not let them work solely for a Negro Harlem, but for a Harlem that shall include all classes of the community.
The Negroes of Harlem should emphasize the fact of their citizenship and make it a living reality. Good citizens are a necessary element in the upbuilding and maintenance of the city and the State. Let those who come from foreign shores to make this country their new home avail themselves of the benefits of the naturalization laws and become citizens and voters. By their thrift and enterprise they have a stake in the material interests of the community. Let them supplement this by taking an active part in building up the moral and civic status of the community. To do this they must exercise a voice in the making and endorsing of the laws, by helping to choose the lawmakers and those entrusted to carry out the laws. By working in harmony with
By working in harmony with the other elements of the com- munity to this end we may not
have a "Negro Harlem," but we will have the Negroes of Harlem a progressive factor of the greater city, deserving and receiving the respect of their neighbors.
REVERSE FOR LILYWHITEISM. Recent developments among the Republicans of Texas indicate that the movement to restrict participation in party policies to white men only, as inaugurated by the Republican Council of that State, has meet with a setback. A conference was held at Waco the early part of this month, to support the policy of the E. H. R. Green Campaign Committee. Its object was announced as the election of two white men and two Negroes as delegates from the State at large to the Republican National convention.
The slogan adopted by the followers of this movement is "return to the traditions of the party" which is a direct blow to any sort of "Lilywhiteism" as will be realized by those who recall the days when Norris Wright Cines dominated the Republican politics of Texas with his powerful and magnetic personality.
The composition of the delegation to Chicago under the plan proposed in pursuance of this traditional policy, as tar as the four delegates at large are concerned, is to be on a fifty-fifty basis, with Col. L. H. R. Green of Terrell and Edward M. Carlisle, a banker of Galveston, to represent the white end of the deal. Among the representatives of the Negro Republicans exhibited in the movement are A. G. Perkins, a lawyer of Galveston, and secretary of the Royal Arch Masons of Lexus, and R. D. Evans, lawyer of Waco, and a convention candidate from the eleventh district.
The counts and fairness of such a combination of Republicans as this should command stole as an acceptable working agreement for the Texas supporters of the party to get together on and unite to make their strength felt at Chicago Lilwinter should have no place in the policies of Republicans. Its advocates in that section should find their proper place in the ranks of the enemies, where white domination is the washword.
With the recent surrender of the IDle, whites in Louisiana, and the arduous movement against them in Texas, we trust to see the exemption of the laws a drenism among Southern city clergy and the so-called "excessive percent of the income." It is one of the most common people should remain one of the most common people of the world as a population, population, or income could be the most known. It is a result of the greenism of the modern people, the people who would live in the United States. We would innoce change in the item "G�overst" (10) at Dool II in the Texas proposition.
GETTING A FOCUS
Lendences continue to make a portion of the white South of the time to see itself as object to. Though all men of the time are becoming to get a active focus on the deterrent of the South to be "a New South" even in that point, the cases are with the same way in the old world. A victim of the world's

The note is also a certain class of a line of line, probably on the basis of the rate showing it is increasing over the first terms. The note will run over a new year and on a new line, but the death center will be the line. The note is a penile line with which he was
It seems that at the time the world was brought in by a letter on commerce, the Air Head commanded it real as a unattractive opinion. The result of this comment, as told by the Air Head, was:
Two members of the imperial Negro force, the best men who are chiefly responsible for the transportation of the Indian nation, the South were highly interested and even threatened to put even the men who wrote the offence, paragraph.
The eminent marshal, mounted muster, blinded by race propensity, arrived to the south.
True courage, but it must be remembered that the white press of the South especially in the smaller places and minor streets of the Oklahoma State and the Spartanburg Society and their imitators have come much to tolerate the spirit that breeds such ignorant and narrow-minded prejudice. It will require the best effort of such papers as the Age-Hound to create and stimulate a broader spirit of tolerance and playfulness. The decent white man of the South, with a heart and a conscience, has a great task before him in the effort to redeem his section from ignorance and intolerance.

No one seems to be clear on the point because it is a question which has never been more difficult because the cabinet is not station. However, Mr. Lansing has proceeded times before various Secretaries of State district in the absence or incapacity of the President if there were no precedents, the country will Lansing's action; it will feel that there was never the circumstances. There are many presidents could not wait on Mr. Wilson's problematical refused to act, except by the President's request of the Government had to be kept in the cabinet seemed the only practical plan that could thought, one cannot but feel that the reason President in his letters is not the main reason of his silence. It may have been terms of the Treaty and League of Nations or Lansing's testimony before the Senate that may have been Mr. Lansing's on the testimony of Mr. Bunlitt before the real reason for the President's action the took it cannot be explained by a speech will a very sick man, too sick to understand on the presidency.
The exchange of letters between President Wilson and Secretary of State Lausing is unprecedented in the history of the country. Never has the resignation of a cabinet officer been forced in such harsh language. The President in plain, blunt words accuses Mr. Lausing of the assumption of presidential authority, the usurpation of presidential prerogatives.
The President whole as though the knowledge of the cabinet conferences which were called by Secretary Lausing had only just come to him. The country had taken it for granted all along that the President was fully aware that these conferences were being held. It is unexplainable, unbelievable that the President, who has been reported by his physician and those close to him as strong enough to transact an increasing volume of government business for a number of weeks back, was not informed as to the meeting of the cabinet officers.
The President charges the Secretary of State with a violation of the Constitution. No one seems to be clear on the point of constitutionality, because it is a question which has never been raised; and it is rendered more difficult because the cabinet is not a creature of the Constitution. However, Mr. Lansing has precedent on his side. Several times before various Secretaries of State have convened the cabinet in the absence or incapacity of the President.
But even if there were no precedents, the country will no doubt approve Mr. Lansing's action; it will feel that there was nothing else to consider the circumstances. There are many pressing questions which could not wait on Mr. Wilson's problematical recovery. Mr. Marshall refused to act, except by the President's request, yet the machinery of the Government had to be kept in motion. The plan of the cabinet seemed the only practical plan that could be carried out.
In second thought, one cannot but feel that the reason put forward by the President in his letters is not the main reason for his wanting the resignation of his chief aide. It may have been differences over the terms of the Treaty and League of Nations; it may have been Mr. Lansing's testimony before the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations; it may have been Mr. Lansing's refusal to deny or refuse the testimony of Mr. Builitt before the same committee. In general, the reason will be brought out sooner or later.
But whatever the real reason for the President's action, the matter in which the took it cannot be explained by any reason except that he will tell a very sick man, too sick to undertake the straining of the duties on the presidency.
H L MENCKEN ON LYNCHING.
We have more than once said in these lengthiest and cleverest of all contemporary Mr. Mencken is a great deal more than he is sincere and honest. And he is sincere and faithful to anything, not even of the truth. It is thing to find an American writer who is not the most of them are afraid of everything that convention of the American moral imprint of American mob opinion. When writers down to write he consciously writes to nothing that would violate the "moral law." All he focuses to write the plain, naked to among the American prejudices to object to is naked.
An American writer perhaps accedes to regularly to make it so salient and the who is about through with this Mr. Mencken always does it cleverly, the truth reading.
A savage method of showing people the truth with violence. He shatters the walls of food and mercy by laughing at them. He treats them than most writers are who humiliate him and imprintation.
He is disconcerting and overwhelming, his supper than to find that everybody pretends. Protest would only swell up.
In Mr. Mencken's method for Negro best-browed, the example when the average black boy loudly and colomly protests the injustice. By this method he makes him take himself in serious. In order to feel that he is one to whom appeals addressed, he should be made to feel that he low-browed, under-civilized, degenerate crime is frequently sent to himself as a Southern boy. So because he was born in a writer is a thirtieth because some of his a Southern time. Mr. Mencken has written on this he has no special interest in the way he writes on the localible, because he is the truth.
In the race question Mr. Mencken uses his line what is false and wrong by richness. So nobody who read his article on his original latin. On the Ethiopian Chagos got how absurd he made some of those pro-present at number of "The Smart Set Magazine" he is the title of "The Contender Pastime." But the title to squish the pride that the
We have more than once said in these columns that he is the brightest and cleverest of all contemporary American writers. But Mr. Moncken is a great deal more than bright and clever. He is wise and honest. And he is sincere and honest because he is afraid of anything, not even of the truth.
It is a thing to find an American writer who is afraid of anything. In fact, the most of them are afraid of everything; they are afraid of American convention, of the American moral code, of American continentality of American mob opinion. When the average American writer falls down to write he consciously or unconsciously determines to do nothing that would violate the "American principle." But he will be forced to write the plain, naked truth. He decides that it is among the American prejudices to object to the truth because it is nailed.

By this method he may reach the people he may reach. This method reaches the people he makes himself in the region. Instead of allowing the lyncher to feel that he is one to whom appeals for justice should be addressed, he should be made to feel that he is just what he is—a low-browed, under-civilized, degenerate criminal.
Mr Menken frequently returns to himself as a Southerner. Of course he is a Southerner because he was born in a Southern writer. He is not a Southerner because some of his ancestors were Southern. Mr Menken has written on the race matter and also he has no special interest in the Negro's history. He has always written on the Negro's side, because he

At least one court in every state reported that children awaiting trial were deprived in jail. 55 counties in 1975 reported that no effort was made to separate children detained in jails from old and hardened offenders, though such separation is required by law in many of these cases. The bulletin continued.

Mr. Lansing has precedent of serious Secretaries of State have or incapacity of the President precedents, the country will not do it will feel that there was no notice. There are many pressing Mr. Wilson's problematical receipt by the President's request had to be kept in motion. The only practical plan that could not but feel that the reason put matters is not the main reason for their action.

unvaulted courts created by special law and independent of other court systems. Most half of them were in only 5 states. After delivery state in the Union exe. Wooming had legislation providing for juvenile probation. Because half the courts trying children's cases actually had probation service and less than one-fifth had regular full-time probation officers paid for by the court. Even where the regular judicial proceedings had been so modified that they were more humane and effective in dealing with children, the organization was frequently defective in some essential. Many courts, for instance, had arranged for private hearings, but still through fines and punishments maintained the old attitude that the offender was a law breaker father, than a child in need of special care and protection.
Many courts had failed to secure adequate information regarding the child's home-condition, family circumstances, physical and mental conditions and personal characteristics. A large number of children
Southern lyncher might have in his work. He begins the article with the following paragraph:
"A good part of the enormous literature of lynching is devoted to a discussion of its causes, but most of that discussion is ignorant and some of it is deliberately mendacious. The majority of Southern commentators argue that the motive of the lynchers is a laudable yearning to "protect Southern womanhoor," despite the plain fact that only a very small proportion of the blackamoor hanged and burned are even so much as accused of molesting Southern womanhood."
He then takes up the other causes generally assigned, race prejudice, political animosity, etc., etc., after which he proceeds to analyze the causes of lynching as follows:
All of these notorious seem to be to be fanciful. Lifting is popular in the South simply because the Southern populace, like any other populace, likes a thrilling show, and because no other sort of show is provided by the backward culture of the fegion. The introduction of prize-fighting down there, or baseball on a large scale, or amusement places like Coney Island, or amateur athletic contests, or pirate-like shows held by the more insolent Irish festeral organs.
zations, or any such wholesale devices, for shocking and diverting the proletariat would undoubtedly cause a great decline in lynching. The art is practised, in the overwhelming main, in remote and God-forsaken regions, in which the only rival entertainment is afforded by one-sided political campaigns, third-rate chauquaisques and idiotic religious "revivals." When it is imitated in the North, it is always in some drab factory or mining town. Genuine race riots, of course, sometimes occur in the larger cities, but these are always economic in origin, and have nothing to do with lynching properly so-called. One could not imagine an actual lynching at, say Atlantic City, with ten or fifteen bands playing, speak-easies in operation up every alley, a theatre in every block or two, and the boardwalk swarming with ladies of joy. Evoke a Mississippiian, transported to such scenes, succumbs to the atmosphere of pleasure, and so has no seizures of moral rage against the poor darkey.
Lynching, in brief, is a phenomenon of isolated and stupid communities, a mark of imperfect civilization, it shows itself in inverse proportion to the number of shoot-the-chutes, symphony orchestras, roof gardens, theatres, horse races, yellow journals and automatic pianos. No one ever heard of a Lynching in Paris, in Munich, in Rome or in London. But there are incessant Lynchings in the remoter parts of Russia, in the backwoods of Serbia, Bulgaria and Herzogovina, in Mexico and Nicaragua, and in such barbarous American states as Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina.
"It would be quite easy, I believe, for any Southern community to get rid of lynching by establishing a good brass band and having concerts every evening
nothing of music or drama, and to be rigorously censored. I feel enthusiasm is largely to blast. No doubt they themselves are at least aware of it subconscious amusement that they never deceive that in fighting the obstacle made of the weapon of said pregnant women, the burn that he is the proud product of womenhood, one who did he made to feel that he is ego, as a low-browed, looseization, as a being whose sense that of the orange-outang
"They know nothing of music or drama, and view a public library as something to be rigorously censored. I am convinced that their ignorant moral enthusiasm is largely to blame for the prevalence of lynching. No doubt they themselves are weakly conscious of the fact, or at least aware of it subconsciously, for lynching is the only public amusement that they never denounce."
This writer believes that in fighting the obstacles before the race greater use should be made of the weapon of satire. Instead of allowing the lyncher of pregnant women, the burner of human beings at the stake to feel that he is the proud product of civilization, the chivalrous protector of womenhood—one who should be appealed to for justice, he should be made to feel that he is regarded by others, especially by the Negro, as a low-browed, loose-jawed, uncultured product of semi-civilization, as a being whose standard of conduct approaches nearer to that of the orange-outang than to that of a human.

One of the Boards of the Methodist Church is very much alarmed over the increase in the use of tobacco among women, and appeals to them to refrain from it in the name of the country's welfare. The Board utters the warning that unborn children are drugged by tobacco in the blood of the smoking mother.
The opinion seems to be general that smoking is a vice or a habit of the "new woman"; but is that really the fact? It is not. Any one who is familiar with the rural sections, at least of the South, knows that the older women have smoked for generations. It is a common sight there to see an old woman comfortably seated enjoying her smoke. The difference is that the new woman sits in a cafe or in her boudoir and smokes scented cigarettes, while the old woman sits on the front porch or by the fireplace and smokes clay pipe.
The women of South America, probably, have always smoked. The women of the classes smoke cigarettes in their homes, and the women of the masses smoke everywhere—at work, at play, in their homes and on the streets. They do not smoke cigarettes; they smoke little, black cigars; and they smoke one after another, all day long.
In the matter of smoking, the new woman cannot be blamed with introducing a new vice; the worse that can be said of her is that she is introducing an old habit and making it fashionable.
There is no question of morals involved. If it is morally wrong for a woman to smoke, it is morally wrong for a man to smoke. Of course, there is a question of health; still it is just as foolish for a man to smoke when he knows it is injurious to his health as it is for a woman.
The whole matter is one of good form, of good taste. A man objects to his women folks smoking because he feels it is not good taste, that it is vulgar. Some women object to smoking by women because they themselves would not dare. It remains to be seen whether smoking by women can ever become good form in the United States.

Of the 2000 courts, only 145 reported special provision for mental examination, and many of these examined only cases presenting special problems. In many places a physical examination was made merely in connection with commitment. In many others no children were examined except those who gave evidence of abnormal condition. In 13 courts clinics were maintained as a part of the court organization. All of these were in cities of 100,000 or more population. Children in small towns and rural districts had the poorest chance for an adequate hearing, as the courts in less populous places were generally ill equipped for children's work. The bulletin recommends for these communities a county system, providing a unified probation service, a detention home and a clinic for child study.
Considerable has been done in the larger cities like New York, through the special children's courts with the aid of probation officers, and such organized efforts as the Big Brother and the Big Sister movements to reclaim and guide a right the errant youth of both sexes. There is need for more workers of this sort, both among the professional probation officers and the volunteers. It is an emergency work, where the are

GOVERNMENT INSURANCE
The Colored Service Men's Unit is a branch of the Bureau of War Risk Insurance, the function of which is to aid the bureau in taking care of the cases of colored soldiers. The valuable part that war risk insurance has played in the history of many a soldier's family is illustrated by the following example, taken from the records of the Unit.
In the far southland which gave us a very considerable number of our colored troops, there was one cologed family that contributed its only three bread earners to the cause of democracy. Cheerfully those brave men went out upon that journey from which no traveler returns. Two of those three sons died in battle. Mother and sisters began to urge the returned soldiers of the family to have his war policy reinstated. The young man's insurance had only been reinstated two months when he was thrown from a horse and killed. Today all three erstwhile bread earners of the family are gone.
It is easy to realize the suffering and deprivation that would have befallen their survivors had those men neglected the opportunity to take out Government Life Insurance policies. Because the three bread earners of this family sought Government Life Insurance protection their dependents are now receiving $175.50 each month, which represents the aggregate amount of their Government Life Insurance.
that the work that it has done in taking care of the cases of colored soldiers and sailors has not only justified its establishment, but furnishes good reason for its continuance. It is hoped by the responsible for its conduct that the colored War Veterans and their dependents will take full advantage of the Unit which has been provided for their convenience, and that they will not only find it possible to adjust their allotment, allowance and compensation claims with the Government, but that they will claim a very considerable amount of government Life Insurance.
All colored veterans of the Great World War, their dependents and friends should address their communications to Lieut. J. Williams Clifford, War Risk Bureau, Washington, D.C.
Commenting on the fact that Russia is fast becoming one of the industrial centres of America, the American of that city says:
"Members of the race, the past few years, have been able to secure employment in all branches of industry and have shown those that understand them that they are good workers. It is the duty of the race to make good."
And it is to the credit of the vast majority of those that have entered the industrial fields opening in the North that they have fulfilled this duty manfully.
"Uplift work is the popular work during this era," says the Sayre Journal. Well, it cannot be denied that the field for it is wide and affords for many laborers.
The St. Louis Independent devotes over a column of space forth the claims of St. Louis a city of opportunity for investment. Among some of its advantages set are the following. It is the central convention city of the United States. Fourth in population among the cities of America, with at least 60,000 Negroes. The best colored schools in the world so it is claimed, with the best school buildings of any city of its size, and new Y. M. C. A. building is an吸引 attraction. The Business League is now working for the establishment of a National bank for St. Louis and its boosters.
for discussing the political situation which it promises so muddled that it proverbed Philadelphia lawyer can claim in the Norfolk Journal and Guide thinks that governor Frank Lowden of Illinois struck the Republican keynote for the campaign in its advocacy of "Law and Order." It continues.
"This misgovernment which has characterized the administration of affairs in the Southern States during the past two centuries, with lawlessness unchecked and often approved by those elected to the minister the laws justly, and with the legislation repugnant to every sense of justice and equity, together with the civil unrest and organized movement, discredit and undermine the foundation of the Government, all gives point and force to the sound position taken by Governor Lowden and hailed by leading Republicans as the slogan, in Law and Order, upon which the President campaign is to be fought and won MAF.
"What this country most needs and must have is a government of law and order. A slogan with that for the point should sweep the country."
This conclusion is shared by many thoughtful Republicans throughout the country and is bound to be reflected in the action of the delegate who will visit at Chicago next June.
The outstanding need of the District protonate of Nebraska is the restoration and expansion of the medical care. In showing the situation of African West Coast patients,
"It present there are not only doctors, tourists of whom are the enraged to fight the tyranny of death among a superstitious population of about 17 million souls."
The next great need is to consider responsibly the great motor will play as a teeler to way. Miles and miles of railway be built, but unless the main line is costly, accessible, to the public districts, it is as good as useless.
The British governor is urged to take steps to save the lives of the new people and to give them the transport facilities essential to the commercial development of the colony. The sort of colonial statesmanship gave a favorable hearing to this plan of self-preservation.

1234 You Street, N. W. Washington, D. C.
One of the most interesting of the Lincoln Birthday observances was the dinner given in honor of Miss S. Elizabeth Fraser by Co. A of the Women's Police Reserve, 38th Precinct, Captain Clara M. Harris, commanding. The dinner was given at Rose's Hotel, 246 West 135th street.
Arrangements for the dinner were in charge of the executive committee, of which Mr. vatte Blanche B. Glover is chairman and Corporal Elizabeth Mayne is vice-chairman. Other officers and summers are Private Carrie Spencer, secretary; Private Cora Winston, assistant secretary; Corporal Rosa Hall, treasurer; Lieut. W. C. Williams, Private Mina Jetry, Private Hattie Van, Corporal Annie Hickes, Private Mary E. Hopkins, Private Mary Baucom and Private Lillian Hattfield.
Miss Frazier was escorted to her seat by Captain McGrath, and the welcome address was made by H. Adolph Howell, Captain Wm. J. McGrath of the 88th present spoke of his pleasure at being present and paid a high compliment to the work done by Co. A, Women's Police Reserve. He spoke of their efficient cooperation, and said he hoped to see more policewomen. After praising the citizens of Harlem for their splendid support, and expressing a sense that more colored men might take the examination and become eligible to appointment on the police force, McGrath declared his interest in every organization for betterment. One return he definitely promised was the elimination of the street corner preachers who did much hurt the community.
Others who spoke were Mrs. Adah L. Thomas, Miss Anna L. Hecks, Mrs. Charles Maynield, Mrs. Lucile Dempsey, Mrs. Wm. Pugh, and Archie B. Roberts.
In her response, Miss Frazier told how glad she was to be back in America and gave some striking sidelights on her trip to France and England as a member of the party of teachers who made the trip as guests of the Evening Telegram. Incidentally, she referred to the outcropping of race prejudice which sought to prevent her from making the trip. It was alleged that an effort was made to buy her off when it was discovered that she was one of the successful contestants. But she could not be bought. To all of the propositions, arguments and offers to present herailing Miss Frazier returned the one answer—that she was standing on her rights as an American woman and would make the trip.
On board the boat an effort to seat her in a separate table and a similar effort at the hotel in Paris were frustrated by Miss Frazier's ignoring of the plan. The officer in charge of the party in fact, was put to the necessity of apologizing to Miss Frazier for the seeming attempt at segregation. After overcoming these attempts, both of our prejudice Miss Frazier indicated that her trip through France and England was very pleasant. Her experience of peace, visited, including Switzerland, birthplace, was most interesting. In addition to Miss Frazier, were Frederick Frazier, Metrorch, the New and Mrs. J. Brown, the Key and Mrs. R. M. Golden and Mr. and Mrs. Fred R. Moore.
The following menu was served:

as it were, is necessary. "We have hidden our secrets in napkins long enough," says Professor Gregory of one of our leading universities; "The Master of the vineyard requires that we shall use them and increase them a hundred-fold."
Many have left unfinished courses in elementary and high schools, because of a lack of the proper encouragement; some, college courses, because of something more tangible, finances. There are those who remain to be convinced, that a high school or college course, successfully pursued, is after all to be desired. Professor Gregory sums up very truthfully and somewhat startlingly this point, when he says, in his treatise, entitled "Race in Art," "Why is it that so few of our young people are directing their efforts in this field? One reason is that deathly tendency of the part of some of us, to fasten cloaks to the feet of our youth, to blind their eyes to the beautiful and spiritual things of life, yes, to wrap their very souls. We sneer at their visionary aspirations and admonish them to be practical. We have been looking as through a glass, darkly; we have been supplants at the altars of the heathen gods, nummindful of the temple of the unknown God. To speak plainly, our race attitude has been serious at taut and it has stunted our growth in all worthy directions. By race attitude, I mean the attitude of the individual members of the Negro race to the race itself. For instead of cultivating a race pride, a race self-respect, a race self-respect, we have sought to unface ourselves, to avoid whatever might definitely associate us with the Negro race. Except the name itself is to many a stigma and can insult. Gooded by misuse and prejudice we have sought to offset them by disowning the race.
Closely allied with this sure need of a proper stimuli for higher education and race pride, race, self respect and race consciousness, is the increasing need for a thorough public discussion of current events. Especially those topics which pertain to the race. No thinking person can deny the great potential force for good and the wealth of constructive material released by the public discussion of a current topic of absorbing interest to the race. There are within the community continues, various legions, associations, fraternal organizations, societies and federations, and yet not one has raised a single, solitary finger to effect such a meeting place or organization or a something that would effectively cope with this crying need of the community. It reflects to the everlasting shame of those responsible that such a worthy medium as the Plainfield Lyceum was

MANHATTAN Y. W. C. A.
The formal opening and dedication of the new Y. W. C. A. Building was in every way a splendid success. Theme of the week, "Dedicated to the Glory of God and Service of Young Women." High tribute was paid to the volunteer workers, committee of management, chairman of the branch and staff of employed workers by Mrs. William Fellowes Morgan, president of the Y. W. C. A. of the City of New York and Mrs. William Rosser, last vice president.
On Wednesday evening the Building was dedicated and Alfred E. Marting, treasurer of the board of trustees said in his address to the members, "The building itself is dead without the radiation of the spirit of Jesus Christ Which is Love."
The program was as follows: Hymn—"Oh Beautiful for Spacious Sky"

BRIGHTEN YOUR COMPLEXION And Make Your Skin as Soft and Smooth as That of a Baby
What would you spend if you knew some beauty specialist could make your dark complexion many shades brighter, remove the blemishes and make your skin clear and smooth?
Money would be no object, for above all things you want to be attractive, to look your best. A clear, smooth skin and a radiant complexion are, therefore, of the greatest importance to you.
Long ago realizing the need of some preparation that would enable ambitious people to make themselves more attractive, skin specialists and chemists were put to work to perfect a compound that people could use at home to brighten their complexion.
After many tests and experiments, extending over a period of years, the Black and White Beauty Treatment was offered the public. This home treatment consists of Black and White Ointment and Black and White Soap. The Ointment is mixed and applied just before bedtime and washed off the next morning. It is both simple and safe to use and just as delightful as the many face creams and lotions.
It contains only the best of oils and soap-making ingredients which are known to soothe and cleanse the pores, keep the skin in a healthy condition and improve the complexion.
The Black and White Beauty Treatment can be found at most good drug and toilet counters, or one package of Black and White Ointment and a bar of Black and White Soap will be sent you, portpaid,
Black and White Ointment alone will brighten your skin and remove pimples and roughness, but when Black and White Soap is also used, much quicker and better results are secured.
Black and White Soap is one of the best antiseptic toilet and beauty soaps made.

THE STAGE
S. C. H. ANDERSON SCORES IN "THE RETURN OF EVE"
BY LESTER A. WALTON
HIS week Mrs. Charles H.
Anderson is signalizing her
return to the Lafayette
Theatre after an absence of nearly
two years by making her debut in
"The Return of Eve," and the title
of the play certainly is one which
has the occasion like a kid glove.
Mrs. Anderson has a following,
and more than ordinary interest is
attached to her return to the fold.
These facts are being borne out by
large audiences which greet her
and co-workers at every performance,
especially during the evening
The Quality Amusement Corporation could not have selected a better dramatic offering for Mrs. Anderson to set forth her talents as an actress. "The role of L'avec calls for one possessed with pulchrature, a form that makes a ready appeal to the eye with or without the aid of the corsetier—and yet in spite of feminine charms is the quintessence of macrophobia and innocence.
The amount of clothing Mrs. Anderson wears in the first act would more than please those who speak out loudest in favor of complying food and clothing during these periods of high cost of living. Were women to adopt the scant attire worn in this act by Mrs. Anderson, department stores would not be necessary to society. However, as long as Mrs. Anderson does not contract a severe cold, the flu or pneumonia, no one will impail her for wearing a look of innocence plus her one-piece costume.
To Lawrence Chenault has been entrusted the part of the praigns Adam, and as always has been the case when working with Mrs. Anderson, his acting is of high order throughout. Sidney Kirkpatrick, as Old Winter, makes a most favorable impression and aside from his efforts along histrone lines his makeup is worthy of special mention.
William (Rabe) Lowsend, as Seymour Purchwell, has one of the big parts of the play which he handles effectively. Susie Sutton is admirably suited for the role of Trixie. Laura Bowman as Mrs. Tipper-Bellamy; Alice Gorgas, as Clarice; Monroe Washington, as Mrs. Compear; Barrington Carter, as Plyme, and Minnie Brown, as Mathide, also live up to expectations.
The scene unfold in the tent art is docu-
mented precisely and in mind's one of the goodhold unmur-
time. The lighting effects and other stage accents make the scene very realistic.
The story of "The Return of Eve" deals with the going out into the world of a modern Adam and Eve, who, after contact with madly people and things, return to the scenes of their childhood where they find true love and life wrapped of its superficialities.
The return of Mrs. Anderson in "The Return of Eve" is quite a significant return.
Miss Cloo Desmond a Real Heroine
The stage exudes a subtle fascination to which every actor inevitably falls a willing victim; but the public seldom realizes that there are many hardships which the Thessaloniki encounters despite the kaleidoscopic environment in which he lives. The handicap under which Miss Cleo Desmond worked at the Barber Theatre last week in "The Miracle Man" is a case in point. On Tuesday evening of last week Miss Desmond's mother, Mrs. Minnie Hatfield, died after a lingering illness. The following day Miss Desmond was notified of her mother's demise, but having understudy, volunteered to appear in both mancee and evening performances before going to New York, rather than seriously hamper the presentation of the play.
Leaving Philadelphia Wednesday
night after the performance she
touched New York, took charge of
her mother's body and was in
philadelphia Thursday afternoon
time for matinee. Thursday
and Friday evenings she made
milar visits to New York to con-
tinue arrangements for the funeral,
which was held Saturday morning
#9 o'clock.
After the interment Miss Desmond left for Philadelphia shortly after 10:12 o'clock, and few in the place at the matinee perform the knew that she had just reared from her mother's funeral. The stage has its heroes and its mines. There are times when actors play these parts for the education of the theatrregener with agency of heart and mind; and pain, depressed in spirit and exerting self control that is almost human, they prove themselves the real heroes and heroes; and there to relate, when they are not believing but are sinion-pure and heroes, their display of humanity is known only to a

CRITICIZING THE CRITIC
It will probably be of interest to readers of this column to be given an opportunity to read some of the communications received from various Washingtonians who take issue with the observations concerning the recital in Brooklyn by Mr. and Mrs. Tibbs, referred to in the article, the head of this column.
THE TIBBS' RECITAL
The Moving Picture Writer, and having写
Movies on Nor all your Perry and Wor
All take back to cancel half a Line.
Nor all your Leave wash the Word of it.
The old Persian astronomer-poet
might have written the above quatrain
after an encounter with the Sults of
Nashapur such as I have recently had
with some good Washington friends.
These good folks have seen fit to indulge in extensive epistolary effort,
amounting to a practical propaganda,
because of certain observations in this column about the recent given recently at the Brooklyn Y. M. C. V by Mr. and
Mrs. Koe. Titles of Washington. These Washingtonists write "charming" letters but are included to regard as heretofore a common contrary to these own.
As a reviewer of happenings "To The President of Music," chrising the same the benefit of the readers of The New York Times, the article I write express an opinion of musical events based on personal observation and shaped according to my musical comprehension. They are fair and just according to my viewpoint and are not influenced by personal social or any other consideration.
In musical endeavor past performances simply serve as a cogpost as to what may be expected of an artist, who go to the making of a reputation. They have a foundation for present and future expectations. But present and future effort are to be judged controls on their merit. A partner or singer who made a splendid and memorable effort yesterdays may still be belies that standard today of tomorrow.
The service is limited capacity, knowledge and training remain the same but mentally or physically there is a change which makes the less efficient performer. Two separate efforts by a musical artist may be a different one from the other, a night dancers from the day. The true mission knows this and the true mission is faithful and modest the will knowledge.
This being true, we good Washington friends are not qualified to take your with us observations on the Tibbets' call at one of them were present. Their loyalty to friends and fellow musicians is commendable but does not justify the assumption that their friends are not amenable to criticism.
When the renew was written I and concerning Mr. Tibbets' position as head of the Howard University Conservatory of Music:
"Just what has been his preparation for this very responsible position I am not prepared to say."
My misfortune perhaps, and to acknowledge it may be arguing myself outside the musical pale, but there were no records available to me containing information as to the training and preparation of Mr. Tebb had undergone. The information came from several sources, all printed. Washington, one hundred and much of it is underused.
Some of the writers are omitted for
their own reasons they may not have
their own rights to the publication.
Some are offended by the
recommendation. No will save their
titles.
The letter was as follows:
For the time or Time Noted:
For the Non-compete support, our minutes of use are not related to the use of Mr. and Mrs. I have given an course of deta in 2. As I was not, the effect of the use of the�-compete support to a express and/or direct use of the performance I cannot have to be with them or to determine if of the artists were able to be done without energy. For the use of our art to be justified in saving and only performs his duty.
A careful study of this criticism implies to us that the critic owes certain duties to the public which appear to have been carried in the course. One of these duties that he should commit himself to his job of criticizing the criticism. Your critic goes for creative judgment in field in which he gives the public its views. In questioning this preparation for this very responsible position, on connection with the Howard (Conservator) in drawing a fanciful picture of the artists "circulating among the fascinating shops," it strikes me that your critic was writing more to entertain and amuse than to colighten. The whole of two paragraphs preceding the one in which the program is given lacks altogether the moral attitude, the unprejudiced manner, the fairness of expression which should characterize the critic. Not a single number of either artist is criticized specifically as to its defects; not a comic constructive suggestion is contained in the entire article; not one commentator feature is mentioned in the entire performance. After having heard both of the artists many times, and after having read criticisms of both of them by some of America's foremost muniancr, I am rather inclined to the opinion that your critic mistakes composition for holliness, calmness for lifelessness, and dignified demeanor and bearing for lack of energy.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE AGE:
I was surprised beyond measure when I read in your issue of February 7 the criticism of the concert given by Prof. and Mrs. Tullis in Brooklyn. Something surely went wrong, as these two persons are highly cultured musicians and artists of the first class and have never failed to please and enchant us.

One of these correspondents, who feels (entirely without justification) that the above quoted sentence was "questioning his (Mr. Tibby's) preparation," tells me that
"Mr. Tibby's preparation was obtained at Fish and Oberlin, the latter having awarded him the degrees of Mrs. B. and M. A." and that he has been highly commended by Philip H. Hole of Boston and Isadore Philip of Paris, France. A printed folder, which came in an envelope from the Howard Conservatory of Music, contained the information, underlined, that Mr. Tibby was the "first colored person to receive the Master's degree in music, and is the first person white or colored, to have been awarded the degree in the Oberlin Conservatory for actual work done in that institution."
It is a pleasure to give publicity to these statements, even at this late day. It would have been given with equal felicity and much more timeliness in my observations at tenure of recital had it been in my possession. Howard University is one of the country's ranking schools and its trustees would be remiss in their duty to treat failed to secure the best possible talent on its faculty. But this does not warrant a recession from the opinion of Mr. Tibble playing of the pianistice as expressed in the observations printed in this column two weeks ago. I was not writing about his ability as a teacher nor of his pianistic triumphs at Oberlin in 1912. My observations concerned only his work on the occasion of his appearance in Brooklyn on the evening of Friday, January thirteenth, and expressed very temperately my opinion of the manner in which he rendered his program on that particular occasion.
According to information received Mr. Tibbs himself is authority for the statement that he was tired of physically through the streamosity of a day spent among New York's shops and department stores. So that fact was commented on as the possible cause of an unsatisfactory performance. For reasons connected with the success of Mrs. Tapley's series of Educational Recitals a detailed criticism of the program was retraced from purpose. It may not be out of place to say, for the benefit of those Washington respondents, that the reaction of the audience was a hot and lively. As the applause was perfunctory in most instances, and seemingly actuated by politeness in other instances, this was evidenced by the fact that, the artists were only encored once—after the last of each of their numbers.
The policy of this column, as it is of True Age, is for constructive criticism always based on a fair and just appreciation of the individual's efforts, taking into consideration opportunity and environment.
The review of the Tibb's social was based on their Brooklyn appearance, it was fair and just, and not one of the Washington correspondents has adanced a substantial tea out of a change of opinion. What it was was and will not be future performances more prestigious than the one given in Brooklyn by Mr. and Mrs. Tibb.

The interviewer always finds his very

The Sporting World From All Angles
FAIR CRITICISM
An individual, a team, a club, on an even country, that cannot stand fan and constructive crisis, is surely on the road to deterioration. In other words, it is repelling the thing by which most of our modern enterprises have progressed. It is a known fact that a number of our progressive business houses have in one sense accessible to all on their premises, suggestion boxes. In these boxes all employees tropy the manager to the man who keeps the floor, are invited to show suggestions, written in their own words, stating mean by which they think the business will improve. The advantage can easily be seen in the fact that there is not a new floor, that there is not every man and woman in the play. So great has been the benefitted, that some business owner now offer cash prizes for the best suggestions received.
We take it for granted that every club receives the support of The Age is a business house. Their particular business is preserving the minds and bodies of our youth making them strong and alert in the playing of games.
The Age owes its public to see that these games are played correctly. Ted, our sporting editor, will not tell that public has discharged his duties to that public unless he censures a player who disregard the rules.
There are many stars on the representative clubs in this womens' club. Ted has seen great success. There are a number of others in the sport, with whom he has reached the material and to use the views of the public, put out the club's play.
Invariable however, when someone has hindered and had hindered to displease the keen friend and friend in something the matter of the public has put out the club's play.
In this sense, the reference to an article on "Spartanism" is not published in the column general period.

Alpha "Big 5" came back in as dogged for the second half as it had been for the first. Her obituary leader, Bale, Thomas, who had had three personal foul calls against him in the first half, was obsolete to be physically more carefully; their young giant guard. Ocbert, seemed to have more confidence in himself and the wonderful Lewis tweed harder than ever. All of this effort, however, was not sufficient to stall off the entrance of the famous old "Manchure." The second half was not

way of thinking the word sportsmanship means far more than that in other words, Brother Daniel hasn't and the half.
When one team in one section of the county invites a team from another section to play some prescribed game and the latter accepts without too much disliking over the amount of expense money demanded, that's sportsmanship.
When the invited team after wiring the extenders of the invitation of its starting up in the latter's town and is not housed and verbally entertained until the time for the playing of and game, that's sportsmanship.
When on the play or night of the affair the home team permits the visitor to have the better dressing team, it then is two, and does everything to comfort of its guests, that too sportsmanship.
After getting dressed and ready for the race, the home boys allow the assistant to go upon the floor first, or better still, if they accompany them arm in arm to the battle ground, so that each shall get an equal amount of assistance that is genuine sportsmanship. In the captain of the hosts, before the game introduces the captain and manager, strangers to the referee, judge and other officials, that only another instance of good sportsmanship.

Upon his entrance into the grum European affair, he left a team that was able to keep his club among contenders for supreme honors in the basket ball world. Upon his return he found the team completely disrupted and those members of the former team who had not resigned were voted out of the club for an alleged attempt by them to extort money from the club for their services. This did not phase A. however, for he believed in principle and wanted nothing to do with a squad that had

When they made their first appearance of the season, being pitted against the Baronet Bees in Manhattan Casino, they were overwhelmingly defeated. They were, accorded the same treatment by the Spartan Brave quintet and almost every team encountered, till they met Balkumov "Y."
It was in this last named affair that "Big 5" began to show that improvement that Manager Athkins had looked forward to.

"Is Alpha going to have the nerve to go in and play the 'Machine'?
It has gone down in basketball history for the season of 1979-20, that Alpha not only played against St. C. on February 12, but outscored them in the first half and played convincingly against last year's champions from last to finish.
Alpha lins goes a step further and said even through the Spartan Braves declared her early in the season they must do it again before they can play St. Louis for any eastern championship. They will harle for this singular honor on Monday evening, February 23.
Alpha "Big 5" will go into this game batting for a principle and for true admiration of a manager who dared to foster such a principle, even in the midst of temptations who refused to say a word in behalf of season play.

WHY A WHITE REFEREE
A few years back, every club of any importance in the basket, tall world led in its country or was making serious efforts to engage a coach to instruct their charges in the fine points of teamwork about the game. In most instances, these coaches were necessarily white men, for they were considered as our superiors in the sport, owing to the longer time they had devoted to it.
Lings have undergone some technical changes since that time, however. The Negro has again displayed that wonderful adaptability for which he is known and is today recognized as the equal of not the peer of his white brother in imparting his knowledge about the game to others. Three of the leading clubs in the east—Alpha, St. Christopher and Brooklyn A. C. and a host of smaller organizations, are the forerunners in encouraging their men to branch out in this field. Alpha with her Johnny Johnson, who plays with Columbia University, but is a bona fide Alpha club member, St. Christopher, with her incompatible Charlie Bradford, graduate from the big red and black' team to coach and supervisor of athletics at the Parish House, and last, but not least, Brooklyn A. C. with old warhorse, Sacco, who introduced basket ball to the
natives across the bridge, and today plays with the team that holds the championship of that burg.
Surely come few Negroes have progressed in other dimes of the sport as well.
It is an undisputable fact that when two basket ball teams take the floor against each other, the referee, who is the eleventh man before the public, is recognized as superior to every man on either team. He is a sort of high muck-a-muck to the onlookers.
Then why do our local clubs continue to have white men serve in that capacity?
Are we to take it as confessed inferiority, or do they distrust their own?
Time will come when the selection of a white official to act before thongs that gather at our games will be regarded as an affront of the race—even by the pleasure seekers.

BRAVES INVADE "BINGUM."
Wednesday evening, February 18. Manager Bob Douglas of the Spartans with ten of his stellar performers, pulled out from these shores, enroute to the nation's capitol, where the Spartan "Braves" are booked to play the Carlisle haskes ball team of that city on Friday night.
Despite the absence of the Spartan's captain, Holley Johnson, the invading team seemed very enthusiastic and hopeful. In the absence of Holley, George Capers is acting as captain and Stoum is playing center.
In meeting the Carlisle team, the Braves are tackling one of the strongest teams in the South.
Carlisle has a notable victory against the Baltimore "Vy," the team which earlier this season vanquished
Alba Park at Manhattan It was that same Carlisle team that played the Hampion quintet off its feet in the first half of their game at Hampion Institute, and only succumbed to the terrible pace of the Institute boys in the second half.

After this encounter the Braves will hasten back to little old New York where on Monday night they are to try and remove Alpha from standing between their team and a game with St. Christopher's Machine.
So sure are the Spartan players of an all around victory, that they have advanced St. Christopher to go ahead and ball their team as their opponents in the night for the supremacy of the east.

FROM PITTSBURGH.
TO THE SNOOKING EDITOR OF THE N.Y.C.
Being still somewhat under the spell of your well written article of the Lorraine-St. C. game, and the clever satire in "Seen and Heard," I am prompted to write you and mention some particulars that I think you might appreciate.
Monday morning I happened to have some business at the office of the Pittsburgh course. We (Mr R. L. Vane, Mr. J. Lewis, and myself) were discussing the game and the writings of a game in order New York papers, one writing at considerable length on each subject, but the game itself.
Lot No. was delivered in the most memorable manner and we all listened attentively while one read your
After the first few hours I knew, spoke up and said, 'Now here is a fellow who has been in the subject well on hand.' And a fellow from two errors in the score that you have provided me by this time we all thoroughly remixed your article and lengthened the details to the comments in "Siren and Heard."
It was agreed that this was the best way up with the game.
Although I am not familiar with the general form of 100 Nor, the two articles of the Course on one commission on the distinct change on the paper and the improved appearance. I was glad at the opportunity of telling them what I had seen of our building and wonderful press while in New York.
The members on the London Club can and others interested in the game here have eagerly awaited its issue on paper and said that they are pleased with your fair and generous pressions would be putting it mutly.
This letter is purred, personal and
written without the knowledge of the
ones mentioned.
As a Pittsburgher and member of the
Louis Club I thank you and wish you
all success in your work. My congratulations to Tiff. New York No. in having

BASEBALL
Philadelphia, Pa.-Colored baseball fans will enjoy an opportunity the summer by patronize the games at a park belonging to the race. The Madison Athletic Park Corporation has been formed and has acquired a site at 54th and Reed streets. A modern grand stand and accesories will be provided at an estimated cost of about $80,000. It is planned to open this park on April 15.
Promoters of the venture are Madison H. Chalk, president; George W. Smith, secretary; John T. Gibson, treasurer; N. P. Marshall, business manager; Dr. Charles Lewis, public agent. These officers form the board of directors.
Two teams will make this their home grounds, the Madison Park team, managed by Daniel McJellan, and the Pennsylvania Giants, under George M. Victory. The Giants will travel and serve as a developing source for the Madisons.
15TH'S BOXING BOUTS
Men about Harlem who were fortunate enough to get hold of tickets for the first set of boxing bouts staged by the 15th Infantry, in the armory, were treated to a rare show Wednesday, February 5. As early as 7:30 in the evening, ticket holders began to file into the 132d street drill room, hoping thereby to secure choice ring-side locations, for no seats were reserved. Time proved that early comers were none too early, for at 8:13 when the first bout was put on, the house was very comfortably filled and by nine o'clock standing room was at a premium and a howling mob was down stairs begging for admission.
An announcement was made in which Lieut Roy Morse was named as timekeeper and the famous Billy Roche as referee. These two officials lost no time in getting the gladiators started on their way.
The Bantamweights.
The four best brought together the two New York bantamweights Battling Joe and Battling Kiddy. If there was any bolt in the minds of the spectators that they were to see more exhibition beats or sparring matches, these bolt removed all traces of sad bolt at the first clang of the bell that called them together. They have now encased her like two infurred bells all to the great excitement of the opening spectators. The first round went to Kiddy but that only sourced love to tight harder in the second to even up matters which he succeeded in doing. The third was even but the more experienced Kiddy came back in fourth and final round and knocked her adversary out of the ring. Battling Joe showed wonderful gameness in climbing back into the ring to touch the mull with his hard battling opponent while the crowd by its applause demonstrated its admiration for true manhood.
For the second attraction of the war, I rank McKaine of the old old troop to knit Lara Norton back Georgia from whence he had come for the bounty. It was just a case of McKaine all the way, much to the merriment of the crowd that thought not of his opponent's name but of Georgia.
The "Fighting 69th" sent another representative along in the third truss who kept their colors flying high. This exponent of the many art was Jnr Sullivan, who took Buster Rothman in camp after some hard mulling. So complete was Sullivan's mercy that the exited Wavelle Hart-grove advised Rothman's seconds to take a brazen and sweep their boy up.
Wrestlers Amuse
Two wrestlers, Mike Wallard, who was introduced as well-known champion of the navy, and Young Mulloon, champion of world championship honors, framed fifteen minutes of genuine laughter to the outlooks. Jimmy Delmont acted as reference for this game and had to repeatedly warn Mulloon against digging his naval opponent. This Mulloon was of Jewish extraction and all but succumbed to the marshal's applied by the crafty Wallard.
Four more boxing contests were put on after this, the most notable of which was the star bout between Ritchie Ryan of the A. E. F. and Jack Smith of Wilkes-Barre, Pa. These boys had some grievances against each other and were allowed six rounds by the management to settle same. At the call of time they rushed

out of their corner and Jack Smith, refusing to shake hands, caught his opponent flush on the point of the chin with a right cross that sent the A. E. F. boy down for the count of nine. Ryan managed to struggle to his feet and fall into a chinch despite the frantic efforts of Smith to finish him. During the remaining two minutes of the first round, Ryan recovered sufficiently to almost even up the round by some of the hardest lighting seen around Harlem since the old 135th Street A. C. was in operation. In the second round, these boys stood toe to toe in the center of the ring and whaled away at each other—mither being willing to give away one foot of ground. Then Ryan, the boy who had almost suffered a knockout in the first few seconds of the bout, slipped back and allowed his opponent to miss one. This gave the A. E. F. boy his chance and he caught Smith with a right hook square on the jaw which sent the latter into dreamland.
It must be said to the credite of Smith that he made frantic efforts to rise when Jimmy DeForrest had to toll off seven seconds, but he was too far gone. The count of ten found him completely out and his seconds had to work about ten minutes over him before they could bring him around. The crowd went wild over this battle and was ubiquitous over its outcome.
SOME TENNIS TALK
FOR THE HONOR OF N. Y.
Following the advice to local clubs carried by The Age two weeks ago, many of the clubs in this district have informed me that it is their intention to employ different tactics next season in their tennis affairs.
Weekly match games are being arranged even at this early date and some of the smaller clubs have been very busy since last September enrolling the best players obtainable in order to make an impression in the match games against their more powerful brothers next spring.
The advice given to ladies about trying to keep the Mine, C. J. Walker trophy in this city, has sufficed to produce an unusual determination in local racquet wielders of the fairer sex. All are bent on keeping Miss Rae of Jamaica, B. W. I. from winning that coveted prize next season, for if she does, she will become its permanent possessor.
We learn from the St. Marks Tennis Club of the West 3rd Street Church that they have enrolled many recognized players in their club since the close of last season. President Taylor of the organization has promised to make the names of their latest acquisitions known before their opening in the spring.
POST OFFICE NOTES
Just Saturday night many of the clubs of City Hall station were tendered a midnight party by Miss Viola Goode at her residence, 69 West 13th Street. To save Miss Goode from too much expense, each of the guests, male and female, subscribed a nominal sum a few days before the event.
Some few of the clubs were fortunate enough to have day tours which
enabled them to gather early, but the majority were not off till eleven, of twelve o'clock and the party thereafter did not get into bull swing before 11 A. M. Dance after dance was enforced by the earliest distributions of our letters in their period of relaxation and Walter B. Williams, tenor, and Mrs. Ferrer, reader, supplemented these dances with renditions of their favorite selections. Miss Edith Matthews, one of the few clerks from other stations, favored her audience with one of the season's popular airs, accompanied by Miss Ann Sellers of Brooklyn.
In the untidest of the merriment, Mrs. Harrison, aunt of Miss Goode, invited all the guests into the dining room to partake of a most sumptuous feast prepared for the occasion. The honor of blessing this hearty repast was given to The Age reporter. Punch was served which proved that prohibition has not been much felt in the Goods household.
At about three-thirty the desire of Brooklyn and Jersey residents to get home before daylight caused them to make ready to depart and the party came to a very successful end.
Among those present were Miss Grace Perkins, Rose Tunnall, Maude Mason, Edith Matthews, Ann Sollers, Moodham Rice, of Chicago, and Porter, of Brooklyn; Mamura, Evans, Migna, Herndon, James, Moore, Harris, Gordon, Williams, Tim Brown, and Rutherford Jackson.
Recently the Blijn P. Lansjoy club, the recognized social organization among post office employees of New York and mines, and the marketing of a handsome picture of the man along whom to club was meant. The district of the picture, the Rev. Gee, A. Brown, of Alton, IL, whom Lansjoy met his certainly death, is not known to any of the one hundred past clerks constituting the organization but heard of their three through The New York Age and hugged to get in touch with them.
We are painting the house of corporation dispatched by the great employees to their headquarters.
Your father of respect then commemorate the picture of Mildjah P. Lovely and the fundament created to his memory, received.
At the regular meeting of Mildjah P. Lovely Club, held February 11, in club room, it was unanimously voted that money be received, a letter of thanks be sent to you and picture be furnished and placed on wall of our club room.
Again thinking you and wishing you much success, we remain.
Your respectability.

JAMES M. GRAY, Press.
Last Monday was the sixteenth of February and meant the time for the change of terms in many offices throughout the city.
As usual there were those who were compelled to remain on the night tour even though they had put in three or four months on it previously.
The authorities regretted, this as much as their subordinates but sawgo other way out as they need the largest force in the night when the bulk of letters from business, house, pour into the offices.
Misses Mabel Adams, Bermice Grandison and Henderson are still on sick leave from City Hall Station.
. . .
Mr. Baker of Hudson Terminal station, was sent over to City Hall, Monday, where he is to take charge of the New York table and the score of men employed on it.
For efficient service rendered, and for his thorough knowledge of the "scheme book," Carl Whitington has been promoted to head man on the pouching case at City Hall station.
---
Owing to the crippled traffic conditions caused by the recent blight, the Nineteenth Street Circular station was swamped last week and many of the clerks were forced to work overtime.
When motor vehicles were able to move from station to station, Nineteenth Street relieved itself by sending work to many of the larger offices.
Plans are underway by the Ellijah P. Lovejoy club to stage its spring dance shortly after Easter.
The date of April 9 has been definitely decided upon and Harlene Casino has been engaged for that evening.
The Age will carry advertisements of the affair.
Evening Gym Class at "Y"
The members of the evening gymnastics class at the West 135th Street, Y. M. C. A. will hold its second exhibition on the evening of Monday, February 25. Washington's Birthday, and an invitation is extended the public to be present.
A feature of the competition will be the appearance of the Wannamaker Four, a quartet of singers employed in the Wannamaker store, and members of the Robert Curtis Ogden Class, the musical organization maintained by the store among its colored employees. The singers are Farley Graden, the singer; Hiram Smith, second tenor; George Jones, harpist; Thomas Hall, bassist.

COMMUNITY SERVICE
OPENS SUNDAY EU
OPEN'S NEW FIELDS
The splendid work which has been carried on for the community by the workers of Unit 14 since War Camp went out of existence has been intensified in many ways. A call at the Center, 20 West 190th street, revealed the fact that the organization has begun to function in a number of new ways that are promising of worth while results.
The building program has been enlarged by the opening up of new rooms for social centers and the beginning of new classes in domestic science and Spanish. The regular activities are glee club rehearsals on Monday evenings, dramatic club on Thursday evenings, and a fancy dancing class on Friday evenings. All of the classes meet at 8 o'clock. Trained leaders are volunteering their services each week to make the classes a success.
Every day there is a study hour for the children who are backward in their studies. The Board of Education and its teachers are co-operating with Community Service. All children of the elementary grades are welcome. The Roy's Junior League meets at the Community House on Wednesday and Friday afternoons. There will be basketball games formed, hikes, summer camps and 40th anniversary for a play street. On Thursday and Friday afternoons after school there will be a play hour for little girls with story telling and games.
New Workers
The scope and work of the Community House in North Harlem has increased as to warrant the national organization of Community Service in meeting to the Harlem district B. B. Church, formerly of the faculty of Livingston College, and Miss Mary McCaughough, national organizer from Spartburg, S. C.
Mr. Church has had a large experience in Community Service work in Pittsburgh. He comes to direct the entire work of North Harlem. Miss McCaughough comes with the reputation of having built up a Community Center in Spartburg that is now being supported wholly by the colored people of that district.
