TEXAS LAW IS FASTER THAN MOB COULD WORK San Augustine, Tex.—Arrested on Monday at 4:30 p.m. in indicted, tried by jury, convicted of murder, sentenced to death and hung at 11:30 oclock on Tuesday morning was the justice (?) meted out to John Hood. Place a Negro accused of killing John Kennedy, a white farmer. The speed developed by legal process was urged as a means of defeating lynch law, but it is declared by some of the thinking people that the mob might have been more bangleless and but hardly speedy. Two thousand interested spectators were present at the execution. In speaking of the execution the New Orleans, La. Daily Item in an article headed "Hanging While You Walt" said that "of course, any sort of legal execution is better than fryin' law, but we fear that the San Antonio plan will not be received as indicating much progress in civilization." Local League Which Used Democratic Funds In 1919, Overwhelmingly Defeated on Tuesday Incomplete, but accurate reports available Wednesday morning show that the regular Republican organization was completely victorious in the primary elections held on Tuesday. The candidates representing revolters against the regular nominees were defeated by majorities that ranged from two to three to one. William M. Bennett, independent candidate for delegate from the state-at-large to the National Republican Convention was defeated by a 3 to 1 vote, according to advance reports from over the state. The national revolt against John L. Lyons, Republican leader in 19th Assembly District, petered out as he and E. M. Morgan were elected over Edward A. Johnson, independent by a more than two to one majority. Hon. Charles W. Anderson had a walkover as alternate delegate from the state-at-large, and Senator J. W. Wadsworth, Jr., Senator William M. Calder, Nathan L. Miller and Wm. B. mittee, chairman of the Dauval County Republican Committee and a delegate-at-large for the forthcoming National Republican Convention.

D., Joseph L. Pritchard, candidate for a place on the state committee against John L. Coil, party leader, defeated by a 6 to 1 vote.

DIVING SUIT CO., HAS WORK FOR 20 YEARS (Special to The New York Post) BOWMAN, MASS.-The Jackson Diving and Construction Co. 157 Federal street, announces that the government has submitted to the company a sufficient number of sunken vessels on this side of the Atlantic to keep the company's diving force busy for twenty years. The company is in possession of the rights to use the Jackson diving suit invented by Charles H. Jackson, a Negro machinist, and the demonstration trial conducted by Turner, a diver of international fame, proved that the equipment enabled a diver to descend to greater depths than had ever been possible. Turner declared that this invention made possible the salting of sunken vessels lithered given up in hopeless, including the British liner Lunenburg, sinked during the war, containing $100,000,000 in gold bullion. Inventor Jackson has managed to hold on to his patent rights and a company to manufacture and market the diving suit, which was placed in formation. The capital stock placed at $10 apiece. The diving suit which was described in a Tarot of recent date is made of bronze metal to withstand the continuous pressure of water at extreme depth, but is sufficiently mobile to secret a tree of logs, arms and hand, while working on the ocean bottom. The suit weighs 500 pounds and the diver, when inward within its hips, is to be taken and lowered by means of a derrick. A telephone keeps him in constant touch with his assistant, and enables him to communicate instantly with them from any depth.

Easter Services In New York Churches Inclement Weather Does Not Prevent People From Attending Day Was Dark and Rainy But Many Churches Could Not Accommodate the Throngs Come to Worship Low hanging clouds which unloved intermittent showers during the morning, with an accompanying chilliness in the atmosphere, did not prevent the people from attending Easter services at the various churches throughout Greater New York. Large congregations, splendid music, eloquent and uplifting sermons, coupled with extremely liberal giving on the part of the people, did much to overcome the general depression, which would otherwise have followed upon the miserable weather which prevailed during the day. Accounts from the churches of various denominations and from all sections of the Greater City indicates a high degree of devotional fervor and a faithful response to the needs of the work of the parishes. Many new members were received into the religious bodies and in a number of instances new trustees and other officials were elected or old ones re-elected. Many churches could not hold the numbers wanting to worship at their altars and hundreds were compelled to seek other places of worship or be deprived of worshiping at an Easter service. Elaborate musical programs were prepared in the churches and the large choirs were assembled not only with additional voices but other instruments were added to swell the volume of sound. The ministers based their sermons on the Resurrection of Christ and painted in vivid terms the picture of death's defeat and the resounding of man's hope for eternity. Finery Display Curtailed. Importer Phyllis spoiled the day for pretty whose sole thought was for the display at new library for the intermittent showers of the morning turned toward afternoon. Inside a ceilidh, downpour and any hopes of a leap in the rainfall were despaired cells in the afternoon. Of course these were those who braved the extreme carelessness of consequence; but the manners simply ignored and allowed their sartor to soothe them.

Easter Services at Abyssinian Baptist Church. Mother Zion Church Two thousand people attended the services at Mother Zion Church on Easter Sunday morning, and the overflow was so great as to make it necessary for an overflow meeting to be held in the lecture room of the church, conducted by the Revs. A. E. Piggott, H. Hentent and E. M. Broadmax; the Rev. Pigott, singing the sermon, Dr. Brown, though his best physically, preached a wonderful Easter sermon on the "Glory of the Resurrection."

At the evening service the King David Consistory, No. 3, Valley, N. Y., listened very forceful sermon in the annual banker's meeting. Mrs. Eva Smith gave a delightful rendition of a contralto solo, Russell T. Smith, cornetist; and Alfred W. Ross, violinist, were a pleasing and artistic addition to the splendid music rendered by the choir at both services. At the corporation meeting held on Monday evening, Andrew Mead, Charles W. Freeman and Alonzo A. Rives were re-elected trustees, and George H. Lambdon was elected church clerk in the place of Morton G. Fleming, who was forced to resign on account of his intention to enter Long Island Hospital. The Rev. R. M. Bolden will preach a special sermon to the Volunteer Club, Mrs. Bertha D.

YOUR HAIR IS GROWING GRAY Don't Needle the First Breath Hurt in Apple Or Qian, Fan Color Retire Steps Dandrel and Failing Hair Darkens Grace Hair BEFORE USING AFTER USING Not with hot irons. But do it with (Kink-so-more) the greatest hair straightener that you can afford. It will straighten the kninkiest 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, not to stay for one day or one week, not to keep it for one night, not to keep it on while it thinks again after it has been straightened. (Kink-so-more is a wonder worker, so marvelously does it to work that one can hardly believe their own eyes. It works like magic, and is unique because there is no easier preparation than it. Would like to know of other inventors of hair that Kink-so-more will not strengthen.) Kink no more in a vegetable compound. It is perfectly harmless and will not injure the skin or hair. But it will stop it from killing out; positively removes Starch; promotes it a lignin growth of healthy hair and skin; and helps to prevent hair loss. More importantly it milder in temperature to do all that is demanded for it or money refunded. I will owe to anyone on the account of $1.00 a regular day box of Kink no more, enough to straighten from one to two inches of hair.

The doctrine that the only hope of the South is in a white man's Republican party has been wicked by several groups of intriguing politicians bent on the pursuit of the lover and lovers of office. In order to further their selfish ends they should bar the colored Republicans from the party of Lincoln and Rosevelt. North Carolina and Florida have been conspicuous, in preaching the heresy and even in Louisiana, where Lilywhitism met its worst defeat, an attempt is being made to revive it by John M. Parker and his followers, who at the same time call themselves "Democrats" on State issues. The Republican party and its leaders throughout the country must wake up to the serious character of the menace threatened by this movement. Lily-whitism should receive no recognition or encouragement from the National leaders of the party. Any member of the National Committee like John M. Morehead of North Carolina, who endorses his revolution, should be spewed out of the party. It is in keeping with the fundamental doctrines of Republicanism that the Negroes of intelligence and ability in the party should seek the right to leadership and to a voice in party politics, in keeping with their contribution in numbers and influence to the party strength. This is not to say that they have assumed or desire to assume a dictatorial attitude, as they also only for equal and exact rights in party matters. This is their due and common justice as well as party harmonious demands that it be accorded them. The leaders of the Republican party should stamp out the virus of Lillywhitism before it works further harm to the party. THE LATEST LYNCHING The lynching reported last week from South Carolina was another evidence that despite the many utterances in the South against moh law, the moh is still supreme in that section. There was no charge of rape or any assault against a woman made against this latest violation of the moh. According to the news dispatcher, George Robertson interfered in a dispute between a another Negro and three white boys, and in the fractas the latter were out with a knife. Robertson was promptly arrested and put in jail at Lauren's. But the whites were not content to have the law take its course and let the accused be legally tried and punished as he inevitably would have been. No, these murders stormed the jail, took the prisoner and hanged him to a railroad bridge. It is such occurrences as this that are keeping up restlessness in the South and making Negroes think and feel that it is a good place to leave behind them. There is no reason to believe that fisherman would have been taken from jail if he had been a white man. The chief fact of his offending was that his color was black. The improvement of the Negroes in economic and other ways, due largely to war time conditions, has made him feel that he is entitled to the rights of citizenship accorded other elements of the community. Especially does he feel entitled to equal protection under the laws. The nation and the several States are organizing to fight bolshevism and other doctrines that threaten the existence of civilized government, but they fail to recognize nihil law and lynching as the greatest dangers to true Americanism today. Unless the sentiment against lynching and mob violence can be crystallized into effective action the future of America is in danger. Law and order should be the slogan for every true American. FRISK THE GUNMEN According to well informed authorities there is a disposition on the part of a few Negroes in Harlem to carry concealed weapons and to shoot promenantly on the crowded streets. If their aim was better and the only rebel was a thinning out of this undeable class of the community, there must be some compensation apparent this branch of the law. But as a rule the innocent spectator or passing pedestrian is apt to be the victim. This dangerous element in the community should be abated and put where they cannot carry guns or any other weapons of offense. The streets of Harlem should be made safe for all the people who are forced to travel through them on their daily errands. These incidents of city perils illustrate the necessity for better police protection, as well as the need for more police women. The city streets should be made safe for all citizens, especially women and children. THE NEED TO ORGANIZE. Segregation and Social Equality as a danger to the race are treated as some length in the Philadelphia Christian Recorder. Among other things the editor says: "The whole range of political and civic activity, so far as the relation of Negroes and whites of the South is concerned, is controlled by this word "Social Equality." Negroes are not permitted their right to live on certain streets" to ride in street cars, to eat in restaurants, not even to sit in public parks, because some one raises the cry of "Social Equality." Negroes are not permitted to vote because some one says it is "Social Equality." If the white people should insist upon a definition of social equality every time the cry is raised, they would be saved from many a foolish and unjust action. The same with the Negroes. What is "Jim Crowlin"? As we understand it, it is when the dominant group of white people put the Negroes aside, against their (the Negroes) will, and against the law, force them to pay for privileges they are not permitted to enjoy, and endeavor to hurlwomen them into acknowledging their own inferiority. It is Jim Crowism if the white people of Philadelphia should say that all Negroes must buy from certain stores. It is not Jim Crowism but a sign of progress if all the Negroes hand themselves together to buy at certain stores for mutual advantages. It is Jim Crowism if the white church or theatre forces all Negroes in the gallery; it is not Jim Crowism if Negroes have their own churches and some of them prefer the gallery. When Negroes make a fight for representation in Congress, Councils, or other public office, they are not asking for Jim Crowism. When we right for control of a police station, a post office substation, a fire station, a community center in neighborhoods where we are a majority, or for representation in the state legislature or Board of Education, they are not advocating Jim Crowism but progress." There is much food for reflection in the view of these questions taken above and the thoughtful members of the race should give it careful consideration. But the path of the whole matter is contained in the closing paragraph of an article headed "We Must Light Negregation." It is follows "Let us not be under any discussion that it is our big talk or our imagination that is going to get us anywhere. We will have to organize or shut up." The World Outlook is the official organ of the Interchurch World Movement of North America. "More than that it is a magazine of the motion and unusual attractive photographs. With the November issue it doubled its size and widened its scope. It plans always to treat the social economic, industrial and political problems of all peoples fairly and kindly. Proof was given of this in the October number, which was devoted to "The Negro in the North." Among the contributors were George L. Haynes, Charles A. Tindley, Florence Larrabee, Lestumore, Bishop Wilbur L. Thirkield, Alfred Segal, L. G. Schmidt, Marionne Barstow, Paul Hutchinson, Jerome Daya, Fred R. Moore and Adelaide Lyons. According to a Texas authority, Prohibition has already proved its value as a needed reform. The Dallas Express unqualifiedly endorses the movement in the following editorial expression. Prohibition has helped and is helping America. It has caused our group to be financially more stable. It has increased the number of property owners and consistent savers all over the country. America needs it. And in realizing its value to us particularly it is our duty to stand for it and its enforcement and continuance. If the Express had been more specific in its utterances and cited some of the good results visible in Texas, greater its endorsement would have been more convincing, than the general approval it expresses. Tell us some of the good results of Prohibition in Dallas. The Savannah Journal resents to sarcasm in advocating the claims of the school teachers to adequate compensation. It says with some point it always brings pay to the heart of the average school teacher to see the crowds pouting to see educated apes, mules, dogs, etc. It shows that education does pay some things even if it isn't true in the teachers' case. The indications are that public sentiment is in favor of better pay for the teachers and legislators are beginning to show signs of responding to the public demand. To further ignore this vital question would be criminal. The teachers and their friends should persist, in their efforts to push matter to a more conclusive conclusion. THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, APRIL 10, 1920 VIEWS and REVIEWS By James Welden Johnson, Contributing Editor "THE PASSING OF POETRY." It is universally agreed that there has been a decline in poetry as regards both its production and its popularity; and this brings a wail of grief from many critics. The causes generally assigned are: There is a decay of the poetic-faculty in writers. Poets now write with a view to pecuniary gain. The reading taste of the public has deteriorated. These are not really causes; they are conditions; and only half the truth is conveyed by such a statement of them in this connection. To get at the kernel of the matter we must go beneath them in search of the reasons for their existence, if they do exist. Is the poetic faculty in writers of the present day in a state of decay? I think not; but the use of it is. The reason is not hard to find; a literary man, to-day, in order to get his message to the greatest number and to make a living, must write prose. The literary men of skill and training who, otherwise, would be writing the poetry of the age are writing the novels, the plays, the magazine articles and the newspaper editorials. The objection raised to the fact that poets of our time do not despise pecunary compensation I do not consider germane: such a condition has always existed. All of the great poets from Homer on down made their living by means of their poetry: some of them, notably Virgil and Shakespeare, made fortunes. There have been a few exceptions. Byron, for instance, at first, would not take the money because he didn't need it. But pecuniary reward has not been the least powerful of the incentives that have spurred the pens of poets. Some of the great poets did work, among their best, which was written to stave off waiting creditors. Whence came this notion that a poet can put forth his highest and best effort only when he works for the love of his art alone? That because his art lies chiefly in the realm of imagination, his food, clothes and other wants should also? Why should a poet write a less worthy poem because he has vague visions of a publisher's check than a painter should execute a less worthy portrait because he has a cash order from some rich patron? The idea is all a mistake; poetic exaltation and anticipations of a check are not; by any means, incompatible emotions. The deterioration of the reading taste of the public is generally put forth as a clause of the decline of poetry by the writers of poetry. Has the reading taste of the public deteriorated? Do you know why the Great Public reads at all, not only now, but why it has ever done so, from the time of cuneiform inscriptions and Egyptian hieroglyphics on down through the history of letters? The Great Public has always read and still reads for the sake of the story. By reading for the sake of the story I mean reading with an interest solely in what is told aside from any judgment upon or appreciation of the literary perfection of the telling or the realization of any deeper meaning under the narration. It is a common error to suppose that all readers of former generations pored over the classics because they knew them to be classics, and because their cultured minds hungered for them and would not be satisfied with less; that as they read they paused to better enjoy the beauties of the rhetoric, to closer follow the lines and circles of the logic and, as it were, to run their mental fingers with a smile of appreciation over the keen edge of the wit. The truth is, the Great Public of former generations read the classics just as children read "Gulliver's Travels"—for the sake of the story; and the classics which did not contain an interesting story were not very generally read. There are few people who will dispute the statement that for the direct and vivid narration of a story pure and simple prose is superior to poetry; so the Great Public of the present time prefers to read its stories in prose. But before the use and perfection of prose for story telling the world's stories were all told in verse then the Great Public read poetry. The boys of Athens undoubtedly stole time away from their tasks and duties to read the deeds of Achilles' Agamemnon and Ulysses; but not because they had any premonition that Homer's works would be revered by us as almost sacred, but because the poems contained for them the equivalent of the Wild West and Rolling Sea stories of today. A reader from the Great Public will read poetry of the highest order if it contains an interesting story which he can extract; but when he encounters faint and delicate sliding of words, lofty images and involved the great beauties he becomes confused, his mind is lost in the laziness, and it is only with difficulty that he flounders on to find the course of the story. The most elementary reader would be interested in the narrative of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, but such frequent passages as the one in which Romeo, in order to tell Juliet that day is breaking and he had better he going, says. would be to him like hurdles set purposefully in his path. If such a reader should take up a poem in which we discussed weighty questions of morals and philosophy, to use plain words, at would make him tired, and he'd put the book down. The people who read not merely for the sake of the story have always been and still remain relatively few. And the literary men of today, having in their possession a more direct and effective means of interpreting the mass in their stories, whether they be of love, of a new invention, of politics or of war, have dropped meter and time for plam prose. But what of the few who have literary taste and di comment: do they not read current poetry? Or do not our numerous impertinent colleges, normal and high school, through an audience subsequent for the author who might wish not merely to tell his story, but to adorn to embellish to beautify to delight it. There is reason to believe that the general demand of the reading public being raised, that the proportion of readers of literary taste and discernment is increasing, and that there is a growing number of people who can and do read poetry understandingly and appreciatively, from the ancient classics through the English classics; but there are reasons why present day poetry does not appeal to them.—Thake who expect me to offer as a reason that this poetry is so bad, will be disappointed; for in my estimation much of it is as good as some which has gained a place on the shelves of fame. But much of the mechanism of poetry is worn and exhausted. Its chief piece of machinery, the imagination, has become dull. It was imagination exercised upon the unknown which contributed charm and power to the poetry of the ancient—in poetry the thing imagined is always more potent than the actuality. But what the ancients imagined we have in reality; and our realities exceed their imaginings. The things they imagined we can see and put our hands upon. They have become commonplace and reality takes the edge off of wonder. Vulcan's glowing forge is but a feeble ilame compared to a modern steel, mill. Jove's awful, death-dealing thunderbolts are but playthings compared to our twelve-inch guns; of his forked lightnings we have made household servants. The description of the whirling rush of charriots of war fails to grip us to whom dragon-eyed automobiles speeding through our streets at forty miles an hour are an ordinary sight. The sea is no longer an unexplored mystery; we have ruled it off into squares. There are for us no strange and unknown lands where dwell men with heads growing from under their arms; we have counted the inhabitants of the whole earth. It is not worth the effort of any poet of to-day to go to mythology and the unknown, once the chief store-houses of poetic material. Not only is much of the mechanism of ancient and middle poetry worn, but, a fact more vitally important to the aspiring poet, our language has grown old; the words have been turned and dusted and brushed until the nap is worn off. Ah! if the different nationalities that assembled on this continent and founded the American State had only formed a new language, then we should have been able to produce a literature to rival that of Antiquity or the Renaissance. The English race, with its wonderful genius for poetry, given a fresh language, one that had not been worked and explored, one in which an imaginative mind might experience the thrills of making discoveres, would produce another Spencer, another Dryden, perhaps, another Shakespeare. Prose does not suffer on account of the age of the language as does poetry because it does not so depend upon form, upon the sparkle and brilliancy of words, the fitness and beauty of phrase. If a man has an important idea he may express it in the plainest, bluntest prose, and his message will carry: if he has an interesting story to tell, he need but do so clearly in prose, and it will be read; but if he should express either in such style of poetry it would fall flat. Another consideration to which as much thought is not given as its importance demands is that the English language has already a full supply of poetry. There are some languages still deficient, but the English language has poetry to spare. And, the worse for those who have the ambition to mount Parnassus, so much of it is good poetry; so much of it cannot be improved. It seems that bygone poets of the language took no thought of present day bards or they determined to forestall them; for they said everything poetic in every conceivable poetic way. Many of the purely English subjects they completely exhausted. I doubt that it is possible to add anything original or of value to English poetry by writing poems on green meadows, or writing shepherds' songs, odes to nightingales, skylarks and daisies; Chaucer, Marlowe, Spencer, Shelley, Keats, Burns and a host of others did their work too well. Poetry is primarily the language of the imagination; and we are not living in an imaginative age. Science now reduces everything to cold and solid facts; nothing is believed which cannot be proven. Our age is distinctly prosaic, and prose is its natural mode of expression. WASHINGTON LETTER New York Age News Bureau 609 F Street, N. W. HAMMETTE CASTER, MARRIAGE Washington, D.

UIT for $50,000 damages is to be instituted in the courts of Los Angeles, Calif., by a motion picture firm composed of colored promoters, against the Ko Comedy Company, having offices both in Los Angeles and New York. The colored concern will charge that after naming the Ko people agents for a race photo play formerly entitled "Injustice" the latter made such radial and unpopular changes in the picture that colored, managers throughout the East in particular refused to book it. The usual attempt of the white man to shape everything dealing with the race question according to his prejudiced notions is the chief cause of what promises to be a very interesting legal controversy. Another phase of the race to invite more than passing attention is that the picture was shared by Jews. It is quite often the case that while they take every advantage to put their race in a favorable light before the MISS MAUD Soon to Be Seen with Lafayette world, on the other hand they do not hesitate to present the Negro in a ridiculous and inconsistent table. Last fall I was approached by representatives of the L-Ko Comedy Company, who consulted me relative to permitting a private exhibition of the picture at the Lafayette Theatre. Arrangements were made accordingly and on the occasion in question the audience was composed of representatives of the colored press and myself. Some of the criticisms directed against the photoplay after its private presentation were: That it failed to inspire race pride; that the spectacle of a college graduate falling desperately in love with a girl obviously lacking in education and using "his" and "dot" was incongruous; that the attempt to show that there was no color prejudice in the American Red Cross and it was an easy matter for colored nurses to abroad at the instance of the Government was misleading and an insistence of facts. It seems that other race news-paper men and managers subsequently expressed similar views about the picture, and the L.Ko representatives experienced much difficulty in booking it throughout the East and Middle West. Results so dissatisfied the producers that Sidney P. Dones, who plays the principal part in the film, was not East to make a careful investigation and determine why the picture was not winning more favorable consideration. When Mr. Dones came to New York he found that the original life had been changed from "Injustice": that instead of seven levels the picture had been cut to five and that Negro dialect and many other objectionable features had been added and many scenes and lines calculated to put the Negro in a favorable light had been eliminated. He only had to be the picture once to know why lives was not in big demand. Upon upbraiding the L. Koppen for changing the photo play and making it highly objectionable to hundreds of colored people only reason advanced formitting this error was that it been done in order to prop up it on the market by the agents, who evidently probed on the theory that colored Americans much prefer to see the as it is not rather than as it is. There was a song written some ago entitled, "Get That Out of Your Head." It is perfectly referred to white Americans who continue to look the Negro of to-day out of these eyes as they did years "AFTER OFFICE HOURS" A DRAMATIC OFFERING The Quality Amusement Corporation has furnished the patrons of the Lafayette Theatre with another play, of absorbing interest for this week. "After Office Hours," a play of life in three acts, contains both comedy and pathos and the situations evoke no little applause throughout. There is much to commend in the stage settings. The cast includes Arthur Simmons, Clarence E. Muse, Charley Olden, Evelyn Ellis, Iner Clough, Carlotta Freeman, Edward Thompson, and P. A. McDougall. "MARRIAGE QUESTION" NEXT AT LAFAYETTE Commencing Monday, April 12, the Lafayette Players will present for one week "The Marriage Question." characterized as "a play with the key of life and hope eternal." The story deals with the following subjects. DE JONES, te Players in "The Revolt." "Is it right to marry without love" "Don't love come after marriage" and "is happiness a thing to be bought" The play is one full of the springtime of love with some vital question which lead to eternal bliss.

Theodore Taylor, pianist, of Chicago, made his New York debut on Monday night, April 5, appearing in joint recital with George Leon Johnson, tenor, formerly of the Williams' Concert Singers of Chicago, now a New Yorker, doing welfare work with the Rova' Welfare Association, 9-6 West 113st street. The concert was given at St. James Presbyterian Church, West 137th street, the Rev. Frank M. Hyder, president. Mr. Johnson has been heard on a number of occasions in New York, so main interest centered around Mr. Taylor's work. He came heralded by an extensive assortment of commendatory, testimonial, and we were led to expect, if not a superlatively great artist, at least a pianist of power, of authority, of clarity of tone and of faultless technique. What Mr. Taylor did bring to us was a musciantly spirit, an artistic ideal, and, perhaps, an intellectual conception of the thoughts and ideas of McDowell, Schumann, Chopin and our own Coleradige-Taylor, but he fell short in technical faculty with which to give expression to those ideas, and a strange and somewhat fantastic interpretation of mood and tancy was not altogether satisfying. Perhaps the most agreeable of Mr. Taylor's numbers were two of the Coleidge-Taylor Negro spiritual transcriptions, "Troubled in Mind" and "They would not lend me a child." The third number of the group, "Thata Nabandji," would, ordinarily, have been the most enjoyable, but unfortunately the tempo used by Mr. Taylor served as a blanket to all the beautiful tone modulations and nuances. Marked allegro energico. Mr. Taylor's impetuosity carried it into a tenuous tempo which took away all the haunting sweetness of the motif, a strange and lovely melody which Coleidge Taylor, has interwoven through his transcription. The Chicago pianist has a colorful personality and brings to his work a developed incertitude that assures understanding of musical retirements. His first number, MacDowell's Keltic sonata, was given with clarity of tone in the *endemic* movement, but in the *allegro* movement many of the rapid passages were slurred and uncertain of utterance. The group of sketches by Schumann, under the comprehensive title of *Tapestons*, and the two numbers of the closing *Chopin* group, the C minor nocturne and the C sharp minor scherzo, were marred by the same fault. Large hands with long, flexible fingers, would seem to make digital facility the pianist's outstanding quality, but as a matter of fact that particular quality seems to be his weakness, especially in passages requiring much use of the fourth and with fingers. Mr. Johnson's singing was a mixture of sartorial elements, good and bad. It is hard to say which predominate. He has a good voice, of high quality, with compass and register. He has sympathy, understanding and artistic conception. But it is impossible that he possesses these qualities to a degree to which he cannot give expression. In other words, his physical equipment and vocal training are not equal to the demands placed upon him. I heard Mr. Johnson in both solo and ensemble work while he was with the Williams' Singers, and he was uniformly pleasing. But ensemble and incidental solo work covers a field quite different from the recital stage. Four numbers on the program were given by Mr. Johnson. These included *Altsen's enu.* "A song of thanksgiving." *Gounod's* "O, Dune Redeemer," with violin obligato played most beautifully by Felio Weir, the organ part programmed to be played by Leon S. Adger, the church organist, being unaccountably omitted; Ursula mar. the romanza from *Ponchilillo.* La Goronda, and a group which brought Haendel's "Where ever you walk," Elgar's "Pleading," and *Lordeidge Taylor* "Eleanor." Mr. Johnson has a beautifully developed mezzo voice and his voice in the upper register is resonant and musically vibrant. It is lamentably weak, however, in the lower register, passages which carried his voice into the bottom notes of the scale being almost inimitable to me, and I sat in the front row. Dynamic contrasts abounded in his song interpretations, almost impassantly so in some cases. In others the swift change in tone volume made for a more expressive rendition. There is vast room for improvement in Mr. Johnson's articulation, though I doubt the probability of this improvement now. Mr. Johnson has been singing for a long time and habits become tread after period. The accompaniments were played by F. Aldama Jackson with precision and mechanical accuracy. Taking it as a whole, the recital was enjoyed by the large audience in attendance. The people present gave evidence by their applause of an appreciation of Mr. Taylor's playing and Mr. Johnson gave an encore to each of his programmed numbers. MARTIN'S 13TH RECITAL The program of the thirteenth annual Martin recital and dance at Laurel Gardens, May 24, will this year include many notable offerings. The Rymenny group will play the Symphony. Military members will play the Symphony. Military members will play the Symphony. Mimi Florence Heppert in the Rubenstein Concerto in D minor for solo piano and orchestra. Mimi Cooper, soprano, will sing a group of tenor and bass. The orchestra, which will also play the Prelude to the 13 Act of the Children's Concerto by Richard Warner. The children's orchestra of 40 little people conducted by Marie Martin will play a movement of the D major suite by J. H. Bach. Brown & Dument are at the Opera House, Newport, R. I. Lawrence A. Oxley, national organiser for Community Service, incorporated, has been assigned to the New York branch for a period of service and he is busy arranging for a week of song and music to be celebrated April 25 to May 1. The following statement of the plans of the movement is submitted by Mr. Oxley; Week of Song and Music. The North Harlem Community will unite in celebrating April 25 to May 1, its first great week of Song and Music Clubs, schools, churches, other institutions will cooperate and contribute their aid in this Community-Wide effort. To the ordinary musical activities of the Community will be added a multitude of special events. Lawrence A. Oxley, national organizer for Community Service, incorporated, has been assigned to New York City for the purpose of putting on a week of song for members of the Harlem Community. The following named people compose the committee having in charge the arrangements for the Week of Music: Harry Pace, Ira F. Torrington, Mrs. Daisy Tapley, H. Lawrence Freeman, Lieut. Fred Simpson, Mrs. Minnie Brown, David Martin, Mrs. Bert A. Williams, Mrs. J. Rosamond Johnson, Mrs. Leila Walker-Wilson, Turner Lavton, Lieut. Oscarella E. McKaine, Ford Dahney, Mrs. Albert S. Keed, Horace Tetley, Mrs. Lula Robinson-Jones. It is proposed to open the week's activities with a first class musical treat at the Park Theatre, Columbus Circle, on Sunday evening. April 25. During the week commencing April 25 there is to be a musical drive. It is being carefully organized and arrangements are being made that it shall express itself in all the aspects of our associate life, religious and secular, artistic and industrial. It is planned to ask every colored organization in New York City to participate, in some part of the week's program. One of the purposes of the proposed Week of Song is to acquaint the people with songs of the better sort—songs that are elevating, the best national and patriotic songs, home and folk songs, and the best of the world's inspirational and classical songs. In order that the Week of Song shall be carried out on the broadest possible scale, it is essential to secure the hearty cooperation of all those interested in the promotion of singing from every standpoint and get the benefit of their judgment as to the advisability of the plan and the best method by which it may be consummated. --- Major Walter H. Loving's return to the leadership of the Philippine Constabulary Band was hailed with great acclaim by the people of Manila. I noted a few weeks ago that Loving had been recalled from retirement and ordered to Manila, P. I., to assume again the directorship of the band which became famous under his leadership. Here is what the Philippine Free Press had to say about Major Loving on his return to Manila. "He is back again, Major Walter H. Loving, the man who made the constabulary band—the band, which it might almost be said, made Manila famous. At the great exposition in San Francisco, it may be recalled, the band, under his leadership, evoked all kinds of eulogium, competent critics assigning it a place among the two or three best of its kind in the world. That was three or four years ago. Not long after the band returned here, Major Loving, for reasons of health, found it necessary to give up his post and sojourn to the United States for a time. Since then the band, while still keeping up a fine standard, has never been quite the same. It has lacked the magic touch of the master. Nor is this any particular reflection on Filipino leadership, for even in the United States, with all its plenitude of band leaders, it would be difficult to find a man qualified to relieve him and maintain an equal standard of excellence. For in his own sphere Major Loving is quite a musical genius. Now he returns here with new instruments for the band and with plans for its enlargement and improvement, and soon the crowds which patronize the Luneta concerts will be revealing again in the old time delights of such symphonies and orchestrations as even London and Paris and New York might envy." ATHLETICS The Sporting World From All Angles In New York City we have six active tennis clubs, namely, the Arrow, Colonial, Greenville, Ideal, Wicoma and St. Marks. In New Jersey the town of Englewood fosters the Four Leaf Tennis Club; Montclair goes one better with two clubs in the Hillside under H. S. Bell and the Oriole under Clarence Deas; Brooklyn and Long Island have the J. B. Taylor and Flushing Tennis Clubs to uphold their standards. This record shows clearly that there are eleven recognized clubs hereabouts, all within a radius of a few miles of one another. Many of these clubs in New York City have for the past few seasons been compelled to close their books to membership after enrolling forty to seventy-five members due to a lack of playing space. The fast that more people than can be accommodated are anxious and willing to pay their eight to fifteen-dollars per season as is required by clubs for membership proves that interest is rife hereabouts. The majority of the members of all of these clubs consist of the younger element, many of whom are professional men and women who wish to be accredited with modern methods in daily pursuits. Even those who no longer lay claim to youth would be insulted if they were accused of being otherwise than progressive. But, we ask, "Are they progressive?" We shall not answer this question but merely wish to present the fact. For the past few years, and we do not mean one or two years, these many clubs so flourishing in membership, have permitted a mere handful of invaders to make an annual visit to this sector and cart away all our trophies. No more could have been expected in the early days of our gurance into the game, ing our visitors, it was said, had years of experience on us. We will grant this despite the fact that we have an old copy of The New York Central Echo, published from 23 Chambers street years ago, telling of a tennis club starting out with the well-known Mr. Benn, of Jersey City, as its instructor. The paper with this news leaves the date on Saturday, May 22, 1897. Experience gotten by any of our southern or western opponents previous to that time should be of little service to them against us. Three years ago two handsome jumps of silver were donated to the sport by Bert Williams and the late Mme. Walker. These trophies become the permanent possession of the players who win them three times in succession—Mr. Williams' going to national champion in gent's singles, and the late Mme. Walker's to national champion in ladies' singles. Poor Showing. Not once during the two years has a New York player or any player residing above the "Mason and Dixon line" BACHARACH GIANTS ON TRAINING TRIP Elect Dick Redding Captain. "Twill he Capt. "Cannon Ball" Dick Redding this year instead of plain "Cannon Ball" for the players on the Bacharach Giants, as well as both managers, Baron Wilkins and "Uncle Jawn" Connor, have seen fit to give the genial hurler that title. The players, among whom are such stars as "String Bean" Williams, Frank Wickware, Ernest Gatewood, Oliver Marsellas, Lane Hall, Deas and Red Smith, needed no debating among themselves to decide who they wanted to captain them. Even before these stars left here for Jacksonville, where they are now getting in trim for their greatest of all seasons, they were outspoken in their praise for the man whose delivery is likened to a cannon. Redding Happy to Get Lundy. The thing that pleased Redding most, as well as all the other members of the Bachchach Giants, was the telegram that reached Connor stating that Richard Lundy, the country's premiere shortstop, would meet the team in Jacksonville. This same boy played for Halldale last season and was considered by those who saw him in action a second Lloyd. From a few New York fans who looked Lundy over, we have been urged to believe that he has it on Lloyd. One local fan, Broadway Jones, who we have all known as a Lloyd booster, surprised us when he acquiesced to this latter opinion. Broadway explained by saying that Lundy helds as well as the old master, is as sure at the hat and owing to his youth is more speedy on the bases. Stories have it that the Hillsdale team went in mourning when it failed to land him for this season. Neither Connor nor Baron would give out the price they had to offer this big overgrown youngster to get his name to a contract, but it is generally understood that his salary is one of the highest ever drawn by a Negro ball player. They saw him in action last summer and decided not to let money stand between them and his services. Home Run Johnson.. Another old-timer who is sure of being of some value to the Bacharachs is "Home Run" Johnson. The managers agreed that Johnson may not be the most serviceable man on their lineup, yet he is a dangerous man to any team against which they must play. Johnson has a reputation for knocking home runs just when an opposing team can stand them least. Pay men are more popular throughout the circuit than he because he always can be relied on to play clean and hard. While Wickware will be the Racharach's minister behind the hat, he will be only assisted by Julianjo Roje, the LAFAYETTE THEATRE 7th Ave.-132nd St. PHONE MORNINGSIDE 1811 ELITE AMUSEMENT CORP., Lamesa LESTER A.

The National gentle's trophy has twice been won by Washingtonians. Yet local players have two more years in which to save themselves, for each of the Capitol City players must win the costly cup two more times in order to become its permanent possessor. With the Mme. Walker trophy going to the national champion among ladies it is quite different. This covered prize, which we should be more anxious to retain going to noble donors' death, has been won two years ago by Miss Rae, who journeys all the way from Jamaica. B. W. L. to do battle for it. Another win by this little lady and away goes our cup to foreign shoots—never to be seen by the majority of us any more. What is being done to prevent this catastrophe? What are the local clubs with their large memberships, and some of them, with their large treasures, doing? Is they realize that their sole hope lies in co-operation? Are they not aware that they can co-operate better if properly organized? N. Y. Tennis Association We interviewed an officer of the New York Tennis Association recently and asked him what that body was going to do about the existing state of affairs. He frankly replied, "Nothing." They could do nothing, he explained, because they had no executive powers over the clubs; furthermore they had no money in their treasury. He contended sorrowfully that the New York Tennis Association is a joke organization with a big name and no power. The Acct plays every club in this vicinity should know the reason why furthermore every club should be mapping out its series of match games. It is time that every one of the clubs should have its own (paid, if needs be) instructor. Cuban Stars' sensational backstop. Rojo, like many other of the Bacharach crop, was tempted by the large safety dangled before him by "Uncle Jawn" Connor and Baron. These two joint owners and managers of New York's most popular colored team must study out of the same book, for though approached separately and at different times they both repeated almost identically the same words about what to expect from their team this season. Said "Uncle Jawn" "We are going to give our followers the best colored halftime that has ever operated in these parts. With Cannon Ball Rick Redding, String Bean Williams, Red Smith and the great Wickware, we have a pitching staff that no big league team can heat. The New York public is sure to rave over our new 'bind' Rick Lundy. Rich is one of the most valuable men in baseball today. Lloyd is a good shortstop, but we think we have a better man in Richard Lundy. Then, of course, players like Julia Rojo, the Cunan, Oliver Mareceler, Lane Hall, "Home Funk" Johnson and Deas have reputations that speak for themselves. To Pick Up Material in South Eddie Buckner, Jr., is arranging the Bacharachs' southern tour which they are to play on their way homeward. Buckner used to manage a team at Atlanta and therefore knew every team in the. South that can put any opposition worth while. The Bacharachs will take on any star southern player that shows exceptional ability. Most of the southern colleges will be visited in an effort to corner all worth while material. May Open in Ebbetts Field It is not definitely known just when these baseball artists will return to these parts, but if the Brooklyn Dodgers are away on the first Sunday they get back, they will open at Flint Field—home of Brooklyn Nationals. On May 30 they are hooked to make their first appearance in Atlanta at the "Inlet." LINCOLN GIANTS TO OPEN NEXT SUNDAY From unauthentic sources we learn that the Lincoln Giants will host their annual debut next Sunday at the New York Catholic Protection Field in Westchester. In order to accommodate the large crowd expected all the bleachers and the grand stand seats have been transported from Olympic Field to the Lincoln's new home. 15TH INFANTRY'S FREE CONCERT A BIG SUCCESS sunday afternoon, March 26, the hand of the 18th Infantry, led by Lieut. Fred Simpson, seated a wonderful success, in its first free concert given under the armory roof. A crowd that packed the old Lauterstein Hall stayed till the final number, "America," was played before they emerged from the inadequate housing plate of the popular New York department. This, despite the fact that it was one of the most beautiful days we had this year and thousands were paired with the feet. Lieut. Simpson in preparation of the program made sure to cater to all classes of music lovers. There selections from Rigoletto, immediately followed by syncopated airs, and to those who cared for vocal or instrumental music, Lieut. Fred had a rare vocal solitary there to please. Mme. Coffee, who was the solitary of the day, was gotten by the Lily Band following the favorable comment about her appearing in The Age after her auspicious debut in New York before the Elijah P. Lovejoy Club. The audience compelled her to sing an encore to the number she had prepared for the day. Miss Mamie Prince of Jersey City able accompanied Mme. Coffee. "Of all the numbers presented, 'The Cavaliar Charge,' which was next to the last number, took best with the hundreds of guests. It was rendered in a very unhappy military manner by the soldier musicians and apparently was just what the public wanted, judging by the applause given at its completion. Inspired by the pleasing reception given their first concert, the 15th Band and their popular leader plan a series of such free events at regular monthly intervals. The Age would suggest, however, that they secure larger quarters for the next affair so that the thousands of Harlem music lovers may see as well as hear them in action. : oe tes ee ~ one Congest TARE er te . a “age mpedige acyl ou y ‘ ee : 1 see a ae = no. : _ ee i 4 bs Sea star |, THE NEW YORE AGE, SATURDAY, APRIL 10,1970 . 7 a yRewr: BERE WE ARE AGA!
