THE NATIONAL NEIGRO WEEKLY
Through Dr. John L. Tidley, director of high school, he sent word to Principal Feller that no such thing as drawing the color line would be tolerated in New York schools, that if it was attempted to discriminate against the colored girls the class would not be allowed to hold its prom; the white girls of the class were required to take a vote and go on record as to their attitude toward their colored classmates. As a result, seventy-one girls voted in favor of holding the prom and including the colored girls while six went on record as opposing that action.
It was even told the colored pundits that the management of the Hotel Margaret objected to their presence, and would not allow them to be received, but on the night of the dance there was not the slightest sign of unwelcome from any of the hotel staff, the same countries being extended the colored girls and their escorts on arriving and departing as were accorded the paler members of the class.
Miss Gwynne Blemett, who, by the way, envies the honor and distinction of has been chosen as the writer of the print for the commencement class song, did not attend.
Miss Estelle Bayne had been invited to serve as chaperon for the other girls, all of whom were in attendance, with Miss Anna BeWitt as a special guest, and with George Coffee, Henry Allen, George Richardson, Percy Daniels, George Walten, Frank Morton and T. H. Wilson, junior, as escorts.
Contrasts to general reports published in the white metropolitan dailies there was no evidence of ballroom segregation. The colored girls, with their escorts, mingled freely with the other girls and their guests, and as a helper all were seated at the same table. An evidence of the realmatic spirit of some of the white girls and their male escorts, asked for dances with the colored boys and three of the white boys did the same thing with the colored girls.
thrifted the congregation. The result was a contribution of $50.
The theaters gave liberal help. The Lafayette, the Lincoln, the Douglass, and the Franklin Theaters had boys' Nights. Master Silbert, Edward Corbin and Frank Carson were the star performers. They were the Three-Minute Boys. They helped to bring in the dimes. The Alhambra Theatre sent a contribution. Mrs. Matthew Henson looked after Abysinian Baptist Church. Considerably over $1,500 was reported at the closing meeting on Tuesday night and the Committee and all the boys of Islam are sincerely grateful to the public and all who assisted in making the Drive a success.
Philadelphia, Pa.—The Noel of Odd Fellows won a big legal trial of the order when on Frida verdict removing Edward H. Mo. The suit was in the nature of quo warrior proceedings instituted by the opponents of Morris who alleged that the elevation of the following in New York in September, 1918, was illegal: Edward H. Morris, grand master; L. L. Roberts, deputy grand master; James F. Needham, grand secretary; W. David Brown, grand treasurer; Bevery V. Barranco, L. Johnson George H. Mays, Jesse L. Nichols and Charles Hilbrider. The case which was tried before Judge Ferguson, Court J, lasted ten days. George Wharton Pepper, one of America's distinguished lawyers, had charge of the case for the Noel faction, while the Morris interests were looked after by Judge Abraham Beitler, assisted by Morris himself. Supporters of the Noel faction are jubilant over the outcome of the trial and already are making preparations for the next B. M. C., which will be held in Wilmington, N. C. next September.
Ben Davis Gets Credit.
Members of the order throughout the country are disposed to give Ben Davis of Georgia credit for the victory over Morris, as it was he who led the forces against further. Morris domination and played no little part as a member of the board of strategy that has finally shored Morris of his power as head of the order.
The night in the Pennsylvania courts is the aftermath of a series of clashes between the two rival camps. In 1918 Morris and his followers decided to call off the session of the B. M. C scheduled to be held at Manhattan Casino, New York, commencing September 9 of that year. The reason for commencing the war was that as the World War had it been deemed advisable, in the interest of conservation, to upset later and at a time when transportation facilities were much improved. Despite this ruling the Morris people met at Stowell Hall, Fifth avenue, between 113st and 133rd streets, New York, on September 9, 1918, and elected grand officers. Only a few delegates were present and admission was denied all members of the order not regarded with favor by Morris and his allies.
When 22 delegates from Minnesota, West Virginia, Delaware, Mississippi, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Tennessee, Michigan, New Jersey, Georgia, New York and South Dakota, headed by Davis, found it impossible to meet with the other station, they went to Manhattan Casino, which originally had been rented by the opposing forces, and convened.
One of the important acts of the convention was the seating of the Georgia delegation, which had no standing with the Morris faction.

Florida State Federation of Labor Contradicts Itself After Two Days' Heated Discussion, Vote To Admit Negroes, But They Are Compelled To Withdraw
St. Augustine, Fla.—The Florida State Federation will not follow the dictates of the American Federation of Labor in regard to admitting the Negro to membership. This was shown by the convention's action in first voting to admit two Negro delegates from Jacksonville, and then passively, if not actively, nullifying that action by allowing two men to withdraw following the strenuous objections raised to their presence by labor representatives from Miami, St. Augustine, West Palm Beach and St. Petersburg.

MONTCLAIR Y. W. C. A. TO HAVE NEW BUILDING
(Special to The New York A.M.)
Montclair, N. J. Through the efforts of its advisory committee, the Montclair Y. W. C. A. has acquired possession of the Crane House, comprising a valuable piece of property located on Montclair avenue, which will be occupied in the Palm and known as the Association Building.
The new property, a spacious building in the midst of attractive grounds, is centrally and conveniently located within sight of the D. L. and W. R. R. station and the Blossfield avenue bus and trolley lines.
The board of management, Mrs. A. H. Foster, president, is planning a 4,000 drive to equip and furnish the new building, and it is hoped to hold the dedication exercises in November when accuse the eight anniversary of Montclair Y. W. C. A.
A recent membership drive enabled the membership committee to add two hundred new members and to collect renewals from one hundred. Miss Frances Gummer is executive secretary and Miss Pauline J. Sims, formerly of the New York J. W. C. A., is the girls' work secretary. With larger and more adequate quarters available the constantly increasing membership will be well taken care of.

Negroes Seated. But Have to Withdraw.
Miami delegates precipitated a two days' discussion by moving that the credentials of the two Negro delegates be returned to them. After two days of heated discussion the body voted to seat the two men. The delegates from the four towns named immediately withdrew from the conference. Delegations from Tampa and Pensacola were referred to as being divided, but they continued active participation in the conference. The delegates from Miami and the other towns joined down, and the settling of the matter was told of by the St. Augustine Evening Record on the following day, the account beginning with a statement that "Peace, and harmony have again arrived down over the midnight sun."

Dr. CEO. C. HALL

Urban League Health Campaign
DR. HALL OF CHICAGO
HEALTH WEEK ORATOR
Addresses Three Large
Meetings on Sunday
Under Auspices of New
York Urban League
Health Week
The New York Urban League annual
health week came to an end on Sunday.
April 25, with a series of three meetings
addressed by Dr. George Cleveland Hall
of Chicago. The first was 32 Allyssian
Hospital Church West 400th street, the
Rev. A. Clayton Powell, at 1 a.m., the second at 3 p.m., Metropolitan
Baptist Church, Seventh avenue, and
129th street, the Rev. W. W. Brown,
pastor, the final meeting at 8 p.m., being
in Brooklyn at the Narazene Congregational
Church, Troy avenue and Herkimer
street, the Rev. H. H. Proctor,
pastor.
Dr. F. P. Roberts presided at Abyssinian church and the choir furnished the music. The Rev. Dr. Powell spoke on the work of the League and James H. Hubert, executive secretary of the New York office, told of the program of the League, its accomplishments and activities. Dr. Roberts introduced the principal speaker, Dr. Hall, who is vice-chairman of the Chicago Urban League and chairman of the Chicago Y. M. C. A. Dr. Hall spoke on the subject, "Mobilizing for Service." He spoke in part as follows:
"I listened to Dr. Powell speak of the various opportunities of employment there are for our people everywhere now. When I think of this I can but look back at the time when we were always talking about limited opportunities for our people, we were sarcastic for a chance; we were limited New York opportunities.
"To get a square deal we must be square ourselves. We must take heed to the command watch is just as good now as it was when it was given. When David was about to die he called Abyssinian church and told the way of all the earth. He strong and show yourself a man. Not declare yourself a man, but show it."

The Record's report reads:
As one of the delegates put it this morning "sameable conditions have been restored in the convention by the recognition that the five principles maintained in the south by both the white and colored citizens is one of the things that goes far toward making that principle a major men's and women's concern seemed to the East Coast delegates to be fraught with evil possibilities. After the matter had been thoroughly discussed and it was agreed that the gates did not feel at liberty in after the policy of their organization and their principles, the two colored union volunteers withbrew, served in the center of the white men's and consequent elevation of their standards of living." This sum up the whole situation and now good will prevails.

Y.M.C.A. Workers and Citizens Unite In Tribute to Rev. Dr. C. T. Walker of Augusta, Ga.
"There is no need of the colored man making a failure unless he decides to be a failure. He can't fail unless there is fail in him. There is hope as long as he says he is going to succeed. The trouble with the colored man has been that he has not been cooperative. Mr. Moore has told me some things to preach to my white friends, let me tell him some things to preach to his people through The Age and preach it throughout the world. Let him tell his colored people that they must learn to fight their own battles and not depend upon other people to fight them.
"Tell them they must expect to rise by their own efforts and by their own exertions. They must solve their own problems. That is what they need to learn. Go tell your people that. Tell them that they must depend upon their own black arm for human salvation and look to God Almighty for spiritual salvation. If the white man helps you, tell him you are much obliged. If he don't, go on any how."

This was the strong advice to his race given by Dr. C. T. Walker of Augusta, at a banquet tendered to him by the staff and members of West 15th street Y. W. C. A. Monday evening. Dr. Walker founded the colored Y. M. C. A. branch when pastor of Mr. Oliver Baptist Church in Fifth, third street nineteen years ago. This is his first visit to this city since the fruition of the hope that day was realized in the first new building on 15th street, opened last fall.
The banquet was held in the gymnasium and was prepared and served by the Ladie Auxiliary, under the supervision of Miss Bella Johnson, president. The menu was as follows:
Lettuce and Tomatoes, Mayonnaise
Ice Cream Demi Tasse
Dr. E. P. Roberts, chairman of the
committee of management, was toastmaster. The invocation was by the Rev. R. M. Bolden, pastor of First Emmanuel
Church, and benediction by the Rev. H. R. Hughes of the City Home Missionary
Society.
Dr. Brooks Pava Tribute
The first speaker was Dr. William H. Brooks, pastor of St. Mark's M. E. Church, in Fifth-third street, one of the founders, with Dr. Walker, of the "Y" branch, and recently elected by his white brethren of New York Conference as a delegate to the general conference in Des Moines, and it is whispered, slated to be made a bishop to succeed Dr. Camphur. He said, in part: "I cannot refrain from saying a word in appreciation of our honored guest. There were not so many of us in the beginning, but there were P. W. Tompkins, D. W. Cook of Bethel Church, C. T. Walker of Mount Olive Church and another one (the speaker). These four stood together, and all but one have gone to Heaven or elsewhere. Dr. Tompkins has gone to Heaven, Mr. Cook to Chicago, taking the other direction, Dr. Walker to Augusta, and the fourth master, in Dr. William P. Hayes, pastor of Mount Olive Baptist Church, was the next speaker. He said: "The Y. M. C. A of this city has done some pretty clever things and some pretty noble things, but one of the most notable things done is to tender this banquet to the founder of the branch. The history of the colored branch cannot be written without the name of C. T. Walker."
Dr. J. E. Moorland, head of the colored department of the International Committee, Y. M. C. A., said it was a great pleasure to show his appreciation and do honor to his long-time friend and counsellor. When the establishment of a colored "Y" was first broached, Mr. William Fellowes Morgan asked, "Is not this just a lot of wild enthusiasm as soon as how long can power?" Dr. Walker did, and I have never been afraid to trust him with a delicate situation since, for he said, "I put enthusiasm in everything I do." Mr. Morgan said immediately, "All sight, then, and the branch was started.
An Extraordinary Man.
Dr. A. Clayton Powell, pastor of the Abyssinian Baptist Church, and a member of the Committee of Management of the branch, said that he had been invited to make the closing prayer and didn't know he was to make a speech and hoped that he wouldn't get the prayer and the speech mixed. "We are here," he said, to honor an extraordinary man, an extraordinary colored man, an extraordinary American citizen, regardless of color. He is one of the outstanding preachers in the South of America. He of the South of America, to men of the order of Rockefeller—that is during the winter—Carnegie, Taft and the like. I am told that it is hard to tell whether he is preaching to a colored or a white audience."
, Walter T. Diack, general secretary of the New York City, M. Y. C. A., paid a tribute to Dr. Walker saying his name had been known to him for a long time,

Hall of Chicago, introduced as a famous surgeon and Y. M. C. G. who he did not notice, the real import of him to be doing for men until he was induced to take the charismanship of a proposed W.C. in Chicago, which opened his eyes to his opportunities.
Editor Moore's Advice.
Fred R. Moore, editor of Turt. Acq. said he was glad to pay a tribute to Dr. Walker, who was loved and respected. He honored the Doctor Should interpret the colored man's ideals and aspirations to those white people, if he was close to them. The Negro needs the "Y." he needs strong friends. He needs men like Mr. Diack to go into the homes and see what they are like, to see the culture and refinement among the Negroes, and point it out to his friends and tell them to give the Negro a square deal.
"Tell them we want the same things they have; that we want equal opportunities and a chance to live and to do. Dr. Walker has been preaching in the South and we have the 'Y' in the city. Now let the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. go into the rural districts and touch the people who are trying to keep the Negro down. We want a square deal and we want men in high position to tell the people so. We are not satisfied, and won't be satisfied until we get every reasonable right. We want a squared decision in the rural sections for two million men on roving it. Tell the white man this, Dr. Walker. Talk plainly to them and tell them what is we want."
Alderman Charles H. Roberts, member of the committee of management instead of speaking himself, called upon one of the dipers to take his place. Walker Handy, a member of the committee of management, and Miss Belle Johnson, president of the Ladies, Auxiliary also spoke briefly.
Dr. Walker Responda.
Dr. Walker said that he was impressively gratified by the gathering and the remarks, but that he did not deserve it. "I have been preaching forty-four years next Sunday, and up to the first Sunday in May last. I only missed four Sundays in the forty-three years. I have always believed in the future of my race. The colored men need encouragement. Thousands of men and women will look up and do better, and make success, if somebody will only stand up and encourage them. It needs someone to tell them 'Be of courage. Stand up. Hold up your heads. Make the most of your opportunities and success is in your grasp."
"You don't need to praise me, when such men as have been named stood by me. If I couldn't get anybody to follow me, nothing would have been accomplished. The colored man needs cooperation. Let every man here see to it that he helps his fellowman. Remember, you are not only your brother's keeper, but your own brother's brother. This trouble has help that you have for forgotten all."
Among the distinguished guests present were: The Rev. C. T. Walker, guest of honor; Dr. J. L. Moorland, Walter T. Diack, Dr. E. P. Roberts, toastmaster; the Rev. Richard M. Bolden, the Rev. W. P. Hayes, John B. Nail, Walter E. Handy, James A. Anderson, the Rev. Hugh H. Kodgers, B. B. Church, Chas. A. Starr, Dr. Jonah Emanuel, Dr. Chas. H. Roberts, Freed R. Moore, Dr. George Hall of Chicago, Ill., the Rev. A. Clayton Powell, Thomas E. Taylor, Henry C. Parker, who acted as toastmaster at the beginning, Dr. Roberts being availably detained.

BEAUTY reaches its height in woman. "To Eve was given two-thirds of all beauty," so the Mahometans say, "Artists try to portray her, the poet makes verse in describing the beauty of her. A beautiful woman is a practical poet, planting tenderness and eloquence in all whom she approaches.
Every day we see faces that would be beautiful but for some skin blush, bow-ever slight. No matter how perfect the features, how attractively she is gowned, a woman cannot be considered beautiful whose complexion is marred by even the tiniest pimple, black-heads or a dark, sallow, faded, muddy skin.
Those not endowed by nature with a clear smooth complexion, or who thru neglect have allowed their skin to lose its freshness, can regain that youthful rose-leaf tint so much desired, by the use of two supple and safe toilet preparations, known as the BLACK and WHITE Beauty Treatment.
BLACK AND WHITE Beauty Treatment
This Beauty Treatment was put to every test before being offered to the public. When used according to directions, it will not harm the most delicate skin. This has been proven by thousands who have used it with satisfaction. No other treatment has attained such widespread popularity in so short a time.
The BLACK and WHITE Beauty Treatment is composed of a creamy, ointment and a pure completion soap. It is just as delightful to use as the many face creams and lotions so often employed.
Just before returning, the skin is thoroughly cleansed with warm water and a thick creamy lather of BLACK and WHITE Soap. After drying thoroughly the treatment is applied according to directions given on the package. The next morning, the amount is removed from the face, hands, neck or arms and again cleansed with warm water and BLACK and WHITE Soap. The result is the test and testiness of youth in the completion.
BLACK and WHITE Ointment and Soap (the BLACK and White Beauty Treatment) has given such universal satisfaction in the relief of complications as well as other skin troubles, that a package should be kept handy on every dressing table.
BLACK and WHITE Soap does a magnificent as a complexion and make appearance. It has been many ingredients so naturally used in the composition of highly plumped and candy toilet soaps, and will be found nothing to the tenderness of skin.
Both BLACK and WHITE Ointment and Soap are sold and guaranteed by any good dragon at 25c each a package, so you will be supplied direct postpaid, on receipt of gift.
You can get a copy of the BLACK and WHITE Beauty Book, as well as a sample of the Ointment. If you will write to Dept. 913

selves to be men and women along this line of mobilizing for service? How much service are we putting back into our race? How much service are those professional men who are having success in their line, putting back into the race to make it what he wants it to be? How much are the Christian people of this town putting into the community into which they live.
"I don't believe in preparing for a triumphant death, but a triumphant life. I don't want so much race problem, but a race program. Be ready to tell what you want, as you go along. Inset when you see something that you know in all right.
"What I am trying to do is to impress upon every man and woman whom I meet, that we are trying to get out of life exactly what we put in it. This
have him and say about 'you let him and you going to get in any way.' The need of leadership, however, is being to get us and further things not beyond than some other things are going to get. I don't want a great leader, but an all one; who knows what to have been through in these centuries of hard and desperation; who understands the things that are behind him. I want a new vision! I want everybody to get the video of service, of progress, and of development, and of everything that goes to guide the race along. We want leadership that goes to lead us to have it. We want all of all be leaders, but we can all make leaders. We want to begin to support one another.
'This idea of problem has got to be done away with. But sometimes in our anxiety we get down, and around the things we make the frustrations that prevent the thing that we are aiming at. We have got to some kind of an organization to do things. We have got to have the therese and have them supported, we have got to have organizations that are pushing us up in the things that we must desire. When we go to any other friends for support the first question they get in, how much are the colored people giving? What are your own people doing for this work?'
Now, we have got to stop being a trite of baggage, or we will be continually kept as baggage, and treated as baggage. I think that we have reached the stage, and we are determined, it stands back of the things that we have and put our money behind them as well as our outthings, so must put our money behind them up to the standard; keep our homes, the standard; keep our leagues and our organizations to the standard of independence, be able to pay when things are due to you, that it was out of purposeness and without a cause.
"We don't want a race of people who are always saying and complaining about things. We getting along all the time; that helps. The loss you complain, the further you will get. Don't cry; take the leaver out of your eyes and push back the straying of your coupon and see away out for the things that our grandparents saw—freedom. Won't you take up the freedom that in your hands and do the things that come to keep up to a high standard?"

The speaker of the day and his accompanying party were tendered a lunch after the morning service, the New York Urban League being the host of DeVan's Restaurant, West 17th street.

CIVIL SERVICE
OPPORTUNITIES.
Nurse should not complain of a lack of representation in the public service,
if those who are properly equipped fail to take advantage of the opportunities afforded through the civil service examinations. These examinations are open to all applicants and those who possess the ability to pass the mental and physical tests stand in line for appointment.
We should have more patrolment on the police force, with the prospect of some of them being promoted to the positions of detectives and higher grades in the service. There should be more of our men in the Fire.Department and in other branches of the municipal service. At the same time there are opportunities to gain a footing in the state service, which has developed to a great extent in recent years. None of these opportunities should be neglected.
POLICEWOMEN WANTED.
The City of New York now has twenty policewomen on its force of public protectors, whose efforts are largely devoted to the protection of the morals of girls and women. Of this number only one is a colored woman. A bill has been introduced in the State Legislature at Albany to increase this number of policewomen to thirty. This bill should be passed at once, as the Legislature is now nearing the end of session. In case of its passage the representation of colored women on the force should be increased. In order that the race may have a proper proportion of this protection, there should be eight more colored policewomen appointed.
than upon Assemblyman Hawkins almost to further the passage of this bill. It will then be up to the women of New York to present adopted camped apprehens for the position, thus created.
The women's organizations and others interested should urge the passage of this bill.
ORGANIZATION IN POLITICS.
Experience has pretty thoroughly demonstrated that no party or group of people can get very far in politics without organization. And this organization should to produce effective results must be connected along proper lines and maintain lasting principles.
An organization not based on principle, but conducted merely as a commercial enterprise, for the benefit of the pocket of the promoters cannot last. The bulk of the people cannot be fooled all the time. Such a movement may last for a while, by fooling the people as it its real character, but the truth is bound to come out eventually, and with such exposure comes an end to the exploiting of the voters for the profit of mercenary leaders.
Nevertheless, the necessity exists for real, organization; conducted along proper lines by reputable leaders, and based on the principle of the greatest good for the greatest number. Until such an organization is perfected, there is bound to be a certain amount of confusion and dissatisfaction in matters political affecting the race, with no effective medium for bringing about a better condition of affairs.
Let us have a genuine political organization, based on principle, through which an effective policy for solidifying and making effective the political strength of the race may be framed and put in practice.
A BISHOP ON LYNCHINGS. A significant sign of promise in the South is the increasing number of white men in high positions who speak but in no uncertain terms against the rule of the mob. One of the latest of these was the Right Rev. William Mercer Green, Bishop Coadjutor of the Diocese of Mississippi, who in addressing the Jessean Convention at Vicksburg, strongly denounced mob violence and killing. While the immediate results of such utterances may not be apparent, there can be no doubt that their cumulative effect is not entirely lost.
Hallshop Green said a time when he asserted that "lawlessness in many crimes reigned among us, in many cases but the rehulge, if not with approval, of Christian public opinion." He produced at the duty of his hearers to aid in the moulding of public disapproval of these violations of law and to create a healthy and righteous condemnation of the practices referred to. His stigmaism of lynching as bolstervism was in the position that Titre Acus
Chicago, is especially strong and should have reached the hearts and consciences of the white. Epileptologists of Mississippi:
"Mob violence is the abrogation of law. It has been well said that every bruising was a violation for the time-being to parade and barbarous times." The history of government is the story of the victory of self-help of the group over self-assertion and the exorcism of unregulated conduct. Mob violence is intolerable and a horror for it, a burdens that destroys, it is creative of nothing."
There is need for more preachers' of the gospel among the whites' of the South to lift their voices' and use their influence against the Tawlessness that now prevails in that section. As Bishop Green truly said, "One of the greatest privileges of the Christian man is to aid in the creation of a right public opinion in regard to such sins in the body politic and social."
ADVERTISING IN NIGERIA.
ADVERTISING IN NIGERIA.
"Advertising as an index to the real needs and tastes of a community may be taken as a better guide as times than the news or editorial columns of the local paper. This is somewhat on a par with the idea of the poet who said if he could write the songs of the people, he cared not who wrote their laws. The advertisement, especially the 'want ad', comes direct from the need of the writer, and expresses a genuine desire or sentiment, as a rule. But for out-spoken frankness the following from the Lagas - Weekly Record cannot be surpassed;
A man may depend upon it, that in sticking to the coat, vest and trousers of ordinary, cut and color he can never be wrong. The charge may be brought against him that he is not up-to-date, but not that he is violating the canons of good taste.
Cook, male or female, must be decent and know what is cleanliness all round. If female she should be able to look after grown up children for schooling; if she knows music it is all the better in her interest. Apply by letter to "Cleanliness," c/o this paper. One who knows more about French or Portuguese cuisine is preferred.
Evidently the employer in this case was in quest of what was once popularly known as a "kitchen canary." Or may be the music, was required as evidence of a cheerful disposition. Almost equally frank is the following requirement as to the self-satisfaction of the applicant on the score of honesty and good manners:
The fashion in dress is very often a wide divergence from what I have called the normal: it sometimes-approaches the bizarre; but the man who devotes strict attention to dress must follow, unless it be a style so extreme as to appeal to people of vulgar tastes. Yet, whereas the normal dress may be worn at any and all times, the distinct variations can be worn only when they are in vogue. This rule is inflexible: for just as it is a sign of urbanity, of being "au courant," of having "savoir faire" to be arrayed in the latest fashion, just as surely, for one to affect these distinct variations, sometimes even the following year, is evidence of rusticity, of verdancy, of being a bumpkin. You would find few men brave enough to wear that not so long ago popular summer garment, a seersucker suit, or to go out in a pair of spring-bottom trousers, or to doon for a railroad journey the once indispensable linen, duster. The effect cannot be conceived which would be made by a woman going through the streets wearing hoop skirts or one of the great bustles of a couple of decades ago.
Wanted, an energetic and active clerk. No one need apply unless he is conscientiously satisfied as to his honesty and good manners.—All applications to he accompanied with genuine credentials and addressed to Honesty, Co this paper.
Lagos is one of the most important staports in the British province of Nigeria on the West Coast of Africa and many of the advertisements in the Record give evidence of the progress and prosperity that have attended its growth. For instance, this announcement ment:
A qualified American graduate in dentistry has opened consulting rooms at No. 8 Timothy street, opposite Jones' Hotel, where he will be pleased to place his professional knowledge at the disposal of the public. Fees moderate.
A study of clothes and fashion shows that these variations are not permanent, but that they have a certain vogue, and that the length of their vogue is in an inverse ratio to their divergence from the normal. Thus some simple variations have endured for years, while many of the ultra effects have barely lived through a season. At times, however, there are innovations or additions made which appeal so strongly to our sense of comfort and utility that they become a permanent part of our clothes; such were garters, and negligee shorts for men, and shirt-waists and tailor-made skirts for women.
Other advertising represents steamship companies, shippers and importers, merchants, stores of various kinds, agencies for gas lights, wines, spirits and liqueurs, wholesalers, auctionseers. Oxford local examinations, a motor fan to "escape the heat," a food drier, licerules and patent medicines galore.
Now, as there are designers in clothes who, by new cuts, colors and combinations, turn out fresh styles of dress, so there are designers in words who, by the manipulation of adjectives and adverbs, and by coupling them so nouns and verbs with which they have not before been used, furnish new and striking phrases. These phrases follow the rule of fashion in clothes; that is, they have their vogue, and the more striking and brilliant they are, the shorter their vogue is. And, just as it gives beauty piquancy and verse to written and spoken speech to use these phrases while they are in vogue, it imparts a quill, hackneyed and behind-date air to use them when their vogue is past. For example, 'valor,' "courage" and "glance" are three good, necessary and indispensable words, but when we say, "prisme valor," "hon-hearted courage" and "eagle-eyed glance" we are distinctly out of fashion. Fledgling poets, more than other persons, are prone to this fault; because poetry is, as it were, the tailor shop for variations in phrases; and the young poet without originality continues to adopt the style of a bygone day. Thus we still see in rhythmic effusions so many "silver moons" and "gentle zephyr," etc.
Enough has been noted to show that the people of Lagos have at their command most of the conveniences and nuisances of modern civilization. That the employer of labor has his troubles even in Africa is shown by the following "Apology" appended to the card of a vegetable grower:
The proprietor of above Garden register owing to the con連nness by the absence of labor he has not been able to satisfy his customers.
Taken all in all, the advertising columns of our Nigerian contemporaries afford a very interesting exposition of the common phases of life under British rule in West Africa.

"Dry Tyranny Hit By Blight" is the heading of an article in the Denver Colorado Stairman. But the "Wets" cannot extract much comfort from the article in question as the "Blight" referred to is the name of a speaker who took an unfavorable view of the results of Prohibition. The trend of the argument may be gathered from the following extract from the address:
There are also words and phrases corresponding to the extreme and "outre" fashion which are avoided by people of refined and delicate tastes; these styles in speech are denominated slang, and in writing and speaking, except when one wishes to do a bit of masquerading, they are not used. Sometimes as a garment, fashionable years before, is re-introduced, so a word which has become obsolete may again be used with fresh sense, and charm. Occasionally there is a man of such attractive eccentricity that he is able to make some peculiar style of dress his own; it becomes identified with him, and to imitate his clothes would be almost as bad as to imitate his signature. Sometimes an author will coin a word or a phrase so odd so individual, so expressive of his own personality that when others use it they must do so with quotation mark or run the risk of being indicted for plagiarism.
Undoubtedly the vast majority of the people are opposed to the saloon and the traffic in high-proof beverages; but unquestionably the majority of the people favor the manufacture and sale of light wines and beers. Let us have a national plebiscite so worded that the preference of the people may be distinguished. Let us treat of public sentiment, free from the abnormal excitement and circumstances of a great war, and also give the men who fought for liberty a chance to express themselves.
We have all walked through a picture gallery and admired the rulled shirts, the lace cuffs, the silk knickerbockers, the low-cut bodices and the full housing gowns, in the portraits of past generations, and we have all admitted how much more beautiful they were than the garb of the present day; yet, at the same time, we felt that to take them out of their gilt frames and put them to modern use would be to strip them of all their charm." In like manner it is hazardous, to attempt to make current the extreme styles of those old master-word coins and phrase designers of the English language. To touch the "Heaven kissing, hill" of Shakespeare, for instance, is to be guilty of almost vandalism.
Undoubtedly a large number of people share the sentiments voiced by Mr. Blight but it is doubtful if they will be afforded an opportunity to express themselves through a popular vote. A good deal hinges upon the question of the constitutionality of the Prohibition Amendment which should shortly be settled by the United States Supreme Court.
If one has not the knowledge and taste to keep in touch with the latest styles in phrases, and the discernment to know when they are out of vogue, it is safer for him to stick to the normal words which are never out of date.
The recent death of Admiral Peary emphasized the fact that Matthew Henson is the sole survivor, in this country at least, of the famous expedition to the North Pole. Mr. Henson's portrait appeared in the A. A. number of the National Geographic Magazine. This is a standing refutation of the popular belief, that a member of the darker skinned races cannot stand the excessive cold
"REMEMBER FORT PILLOW"
is valued correspondent whose occasional letters always convey a fund of valuable information and pertinent reminiscences, in a recent communication referred to an historic incident of the War of the Rebellion in the following vein:
Clothes are those habiliments with which we dress our bodies; words are those habiliments with which we dress our thoughts. But the analogy goes deeper than a mere epigram. There are certain clothes which are necessary for covering our nakedness and protecting our bodies—these are, a breech-cloth in the tropics and a bear skin in the arctics, with modifications between these two extremes to suit the latitude and altitude. All clothes, over and above these, we use for dressing, or adorping ourselves, and they are regulated by style and fashion. So, there are certain words absolutely necessary for the communication and interchange of ideas; these are the words we use to express our thoughts; all words over and above these we use to dress and adorn our speech, and they like clothes of the second class, are regulated by style and fashion.
Another thing The Age ought to mention on April 16 is about the massacre of Fort Pillow, when 800 colored troopers that garrisoned-the fort were taken by the Rebels the next day. The soldiers faced, praised siding Prebysterian elder, General Nathan B. Forrest. In accordance with this injunction to review an almost forgotten page of history, we reproduce from Col. Joseph T. Wilson's history of the Negro Soldiers entitled "The Black Phalanx," the following details relating to the massacre at Fort Pillow:
The most atrocious of all inhuman acts perpetuated upon a brave soldier, took place at Port Pillow, Kentucky, on the 16th of April, 1863, for the shocking crime of wanton, indiscriminate murder of some three hundred soldiers, other than that they were "nipgers" and "soldiers," under a flag of truce, summoned the Federals to surrender. Major Bradford refused to comply with the demand. Momentime the Confederates took advantage of the situation in a ravine from whence they could rush upon the fort at a given signal. No sooner was Bradford's refusal to surrender resolved, then the soldiers tenuously into the fort. In a moment almost the piece was in their possession. The garrison, throwing away their arms, red down the front from the premised "one quarter" which Forrest had embedded in his demand for surrender: "If I have to starm your works, you may exertates followed," bututhering black and white soldiers and non-combatants, men, men and children. Disabled men were made to stand on and be shot; others were taken to the river, where they had been nailed to the floor." This carnival of murder continued until dark, and was even ransacked the next morning. Major Bradford was carried as a prisoner several miles on the retreat.
The dress adapted to our latitude is the ordinary coat, vest and trousers; and it has remained practically the same for more than a half century. There have been variations, but this mode is the normal, the what is necessary for us, and the variations have all finally swung back to that normal. Of course, there have been more or less radical changes in clothes just as there have been in speech; a change from the knickerbockers of Colonial days to long trousers, and a change from the English of Chaucer to modern American; but I am, of course, dealing with an epoch. It will be noticed that I shall confine myself to men's clothes; for though the apparel of Women, by reason of it's more frequent variations, would better illustrate my theme, yet in discussing it I should feel that I was treading on unknown ground, or better, exploring unknown regions where I was not sure of my hearings.
But to be dressed correctly, fashionably, even elegantly, is not unworthy of attention and effort. There is nothing outside of absolute mental superiority that gives the ease, the poise and confidence that correct and fashionable clothes give. It takes a man of great intellect—or of none at all—to feel perfectly at ease when he looks around the company and perceives by comparison that his pantaloons are cut too short or his coat too narrow, or that his vest, in centra-distinction to the others, shows a stubborn aversion to coming into contact with the waistband of his trousers.
But, according to the historian, the massacre at Fort Pillow had a very different effect upon the black soldiers from what was doubtless expected. Instead of weakening their courage, it stimulated them to fight with greater determination than ever. The slogan, Remember Fort Pillow" meant to them that it was a fight for victory or death. That spirit still survives among the race, as has been proved in every war in which the colored troops have fought to maintain the national honor.
Evidence of the good results achieved by those Negroes who migrated from the South to Minnesota is furnished by the following report from an interested observer. He writes that there is not one case of destination in St. Paul or Minneapolis among these new arrivals, all of them have good paying jobs and they stand 18 and 23 degrees below zero as well as they did 104 in the shade "down home." There are said to be 8,000 or 9,000 colored people there now. All of which is very encouraging news.
An old adage has it that "Too much familiarity breeds contempt." The women of the race should bear this in mind in their intercourse with storekeepers and other trades people, who are at times disposed to presume upon the good nature of their customers. Undue familiarity of this kind should be firmly rebuke in its inscipency. Checked at the first advances familiarity of this sort would soon the out for lack of fuel to feed on. Otherwise unpleasant consequences are apt to follow.
Attention has been called to the urgency of the old fields Home in Brooklyn, which requires the aid of all those interested in preserving its surroundings and capacity for future usefulness. The Women's charity Club of Brooklyn has come to the aid of this institution and is the only to cooperate in arrangements for a monastery bazaar and fete for the benefit of the Home. The churches and other organizations should aid in this movement.
News comes from the Northwest that hundreds of the "Exodus" Negroes from the South are filtering into Canada, where they are taking up alpines and homesteading on free government lands. Many of these are stated to have gone from Oklahoma. This is another evidence of the economic folly that the United States commits in allowing bach law and moll violence to drive deserving citizens into becoming settlers in another country.

Washington School Trust is Strong Witness for Himself
Asst. Supt. Bruce Defends Himself Before Senate Committee and Pours Hot Shot Into Enemies
(Special to This New York Am.)
Washington, D. C.—Assistant Superintendent Roscoe Conkling Bruce had his day in court—appearing before the senatorial court investigating the school system of the District of Columbia. And his testimony required several days for its telling. He made a witness in his own behalf and his testimony brought out in concern the hampering conditions under which he had to conduct the affairs of his office.
he informed that Superintendent Thurston had sought to take
aways from his prerogatives given his office under the law, and had
in a number of instances with the assistant superin-
duct of affairs. After charging that Superintendent

Parents League Unscrupulous.
Referring to the opposition of the Parents' League, Mr. Bruce declares that the leaders of that organization had been unscrubulous; that they "didn't care any for facts," but were simply exercising a grudge against him. The Parents' League, in charge, was controlled by a small body of disgruntled persons, mentioning E. M. Hewitt, R. J. Corner, the Rev. Milton Walterson, the Rev. Nanner among the leaders, Mr. Browne said he attended a meeting of the league to which he had been invited but was refused an opportunity to speak. He charged that many of the people active in the league were disgruntled because they had been disappointed in seeking favors for relatives in the schools from him.
In the course of his testimony Mr. Bruce made a number of recommendations relating to the colored schools. He suggested that the assistant superintendent of the colored schools should be considered an associate superintendent and that if the superintendent had power to veto recommendations of the assistant superintendent of colored schools the board of education by a two-thirds vote should upset the superintendent's vote.

Other suggestions were that the assistant superintendent of the colored schools be elected by the board of education for a specific term, say five years.

If you suffer from rheumatism or any of the diseases caused by poisoned blood, take Prescription C-2228. The use of this great blood purifier is almost the same as consulting a specialist, for every 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 these 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 grant 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 also acts especially on the coronary organs, adding nature in removing impure products from the body.

will attend meeting to the ratio of pupils and educated students. Mr. Brown then transcribed that if any change be made in the method of selecting members of the board of education that be selected by a popular vote of all the pools of the District.
No Request for Board Members.
In winding up his testimony, Assistant Superintendent Bruce, at request of the senatorial committee, expressed his opinion regarding Fountain Peyton, member of the board of education, and W. Calvin Chase, editor of the Washington Bar. He no longer had any request for Peyton and did not think the District Supreme Court would ever have selected a man of Mr. Peyton's type if the court had known him. A letter from Peyton to Bruce proposing the establishing of a "beauty course" in the schools was cited as an instance of Peyton's attempting to interfere, in the school administration.
Questioned concerning a photograph of Mr. Bruce presented to W. Calvin Chase, bearing the inscription, "Pro The Unique, Fearless, the Relentless W. Calvin Chase" and asked as to his sincerity in thus inscribing it, Mr. Bruce stated that he didn't think there was any question of sincerity, involved, and made a distinction between any action of his as a public official and as a private individual. Of Chase's inscription, the intelligent I. don't think he would have taken the picture with that inscription. Chase was referred to as unique because of his unique character and relentless because in pursuance of any object he was without serum.
Referring to the charges against Mr. Bruce before the board of education, Senator Harrison asked if Mr. Bruce had suggested that the charges against him should be referred to the corporation counsel, instead of being investigated. Mr. Bruce denied this also. He said that his counsel, Henry E. Davis, at a meeting of the board of education had urged that all charges be submitted and investigated! This was before the Smith charges against him had been made.
The board of education directed that the subcommittee appointed to investigate Mr. Bruce should confine itself to a question of his efficiency, after the charges had been reported there was nothing in the other charges to warrant a b'1 of Mr. Bruce.
"Wouldn't it have been natural for you to say that you did not desire any choke, and that the subcommittee should go into all charges, moral and otherwise," asked Senator Harrison.
The witness said that he had his attorney to appear and request charges to make, and that he had never made any suggestions to the committee as to what course it should pursue. He said, however that the committee had been at pains to follow up all charges in spite of the instructions given it by the board. "You know that persons who made charges against you protested because the subcommittee did not go into them," asked Senator Harrison. The witness said that the Parents League may have made some such protest.
