The church was beautifully decorated with palms and cut flowers. At the morning service Dr. Jesse E. Moorland, international secretary of the Y. M. C. A., who recently united with the church, gave the keynote sermon, in response to the request of Dr. Proctor. Dr. Moorland struck a high spiritual note which appealed strongly to every member of the congregation. The Installation Council, consisting of pastors and representatives of seventeen Congregational churches of Greater New York, met at 4 p.m. the session being open to the public. After conducting an Installed as Pastor of Nazarene Congregational Church, Brooklyn, on Sunday, May 23.

Dr. Hillis on Beecher Dr. Newell Dawley Hillis, pastor of Plymouth Congregational Church, delivered an address at two back on "The Contribution of Henry Ward Becker to the Life of the American Negro" Dr. Hillis is an actant exponent of higher education for the Negro as well as industrial, and stated that as soon as he had completed raising an endowment fund for Plymouth Church it was his intention to immediately "start up and down the land to help Dr. Durkee found a theological seminary at Howard University for men of the Negro race." Mrs. Florence Cales Tallert of Drexford, Mich., tendered two vocal numbers Installation Service. The installation occurred at the evening service, Dr. Charles H. Richard presiding. The installation session was delivered by Dr. Nehemiah Boynton on Clinton Avenue Congregational Church who chose his texts, Isaiah 33:17, and Dr. Boynton declared: "The things that were done with your people in the early days simply in the interests of selflessness, and of good have been overruled by the great God who has taken you from captivity to freedom, and from freedom to a position attained in the world by the men and women of your race in no paralleled way whatsoever, for there has never been in the history of the world such a rise of any people, from the inefficient to the efficient, from the unskilled to the skilled, from the penniless to the wealthy, from the unprofessional to the professional, and all of these which mark the rise of our history of the world a place where we have made the progress in the black people made in the United States of America, since the blacks were broken from their writers and from the ankles of their ancestors into the present day." Speaking of Jim-Crow cars for colored people in the South, Dr. Boynton characterized them as "a smirch upon the boasted freedom of our Republic." Charges Given. The charge to the minister was delivered by Dr. C. A. Lincoln, pastor of Kings Highway Church. The charge to the church was given by Dr. S. Parks Cadman of Central Congregational Church. Referring to the recent action of the Methodist Episcopal Conference, sitting in Des Moines, in electing two recolored bishops, Dr. Cadman stated, "For the first time in its history it has elected two colored bishops, and they preside in white conferences, carrying the doctrine of Christian democracy to its logical conclusion." The right hand of fellowship was offered by the Rev. J. Percival Huget, pastor of Tompkins Avenue Church; and the welcome to the wider fellowship by the Rev. Frank K. Sanders, of New York City. A vocal solo, "My Redemner, my Lord," was artistically rendered by Mrs. Ellen Ford Brooks. Nine new members were received into fellowship of the church, bringing the total since January 1 to 199. The day's offering was $126.45. MRS. LAWON R. BRUCE N. Y. POLICEWOMAN The only colored policewoman on the New York City city force is Mrs. Lawon R. Bruce of 101 West 134th street. She is attached to the staff of the fifth police commissioner, Mrs. Ellen O'Grady, and her duties cover the whole of Greater New York. She was appointed in January, 1920, and is connected with the Welfare Bureau of the police department, Mrs. Bruce is a graduate nurse, Lincoln Hospital, and has served as a public school nurse. Her duties require the exercise of considerable diplomatic and tact and are exercised with a view to the prevention of the causes of arrest rather than to the actual making of arrests. She is a full-fledged police officer, with all the authority incident thereto, but most of her efforts are in the way of adjusting family discussions and differences, especially as between parents and children. The influx of migrants from the South, bringing many families to live in a strange locality under conditions varying greatly from those to which they have been accustomed, has created a new number of the Male of Israel superiors. Mrs. Bruce tells some interesting incidents concerning her work, illustrating the fact that in many case, parent needs advice and direction as much so as the child. Policewoman Bruce has been doing splendid week and enjoys the confidence no only of the police and city authorities but of the parents and children as well. She might be called a plain clothes policewoman, as although she has all Election Of Color Causes Great Bishop Thirkield, Star Was Presiding and to Stop the Election Of Colored Bishops Causes Great Demonstration Bishop Thirkield, Staunch Friend of Race Was Presiding and Made No Effort to Stop the Jubilations Des Moines, Iowa.

Some of the most interesting accounts of the M. E. general conference sent out from this city have been those written by Bishop Joseph F.

None were more thrilling than his accounts of the conference scenes attendant upon the election of two Negro bishops, by which act the Negro membership of the church was for the first time given recognition in the ruling department of the church. The first two Negroes to be chosen for the honors of the bishopric are the Rev Dr. Robert E. Jones, formerly editor of the Southwestern Christian Recorder at New Orleans, and the Rev Dr. Matthew W. Clair, district superintendent of the Washington district. Bishop Jones is a North Carolinaian and a college man. Bishop Clair was born in West Virginia and graduated from Morgan College, Baltimore. He served as pastor of Ashur M. E. Church, Washington, from 1902 to 1919, when he became district superintendent. Both men are strong and capable and are worthy representatives of the race. It is probable, according to Bishop Berry, that Bishop Clair will be given charge on the Laberian vessel, vacant now by reason of the recent death of Bishop Camphor. The Rev. Lorento H.

That would probably have been the dignified thing to do. But he did not stop it; he did not try to stop it. Nobody wanted him to stop it. He was not a strong intermittent little squall, but a strong 'brushing tempest that in a moment became impossible. Emotions Deeply Stirred. Great Demonstrations. In speaking of the scruits incident to the announcement of Bishop Jones' election, Bishop Berry wrote the Public Ledger: The demonstration upon the election of Bishop-elect Jones exceeded that which followed the election of any white man. The colored delegates and visitors went wild with delight before the outburst could be quiet. And when it was finally accomplished the chairman showed evidence of hard usage. Bishop Clair's election came the next day, and when the announcement was made, the demonstration caused the senior bishop to ask the question in his communication, "Was it a general conference or a camp meeting?" Describing the happenings, he wrote: "A group of half a dozen colored delegates near the platform began to sing softly, while some other groups in that part of the hall joined in. Instantly certain white delegates took up the retinue. The platform and bay were filled with voices were singing the most popular of the Southern Negro bands. MRS. LAWON R.

Emotions Deeply Stirred "When the hymn was sung another was taken up. This time it was a low and plaintive melody, and as the subdued, almost whispered, notes rooted out the emotions of the vast throng of white and black faces, white handkerchiefs came out in hundreds. The demonstration was not stopped. It was not intended. It was as great a surprise to those who unwillingly started it as to those who were later swept off white and black faces, white handkerchiefs was utterly plain. "For thirty years these cowed people had been led to believe that the church was going to give them a church and they looked toward the day with eager anticipations.

National Urban League Field Secretary Gives Reasons Why Members of Race Are Dissatisfied New Orleans, Ea.—Considerable interest was excited at the recent meeting of the National Social Workers' Conference in this city when Frederick Hoffman, third vice-president of the Presidential Life Insurance Co., Newark, N. J., declared that "the Negro has more done for him than any other people in the world and yet he is always complaining." The statement called forth an energetic reply from Jesse O. Thomas of Atlanta, Ga., southern field secretary of the National Urban League, who declared that the Negro complains because he is compelled to contribute to the development of the children of other races that deny his children a share in the administration of affairs. Mr. Hoffman in the course of his address said that the more you do for people the more dependent they become, the more they expect you to do, and the more they complain. "Take the Negro for an example. The Negro has done more for him, especially the southern Negro, than any other people in the world and yet he is always complaining." The first question fired at Hoffman came from Thomas, through the preceding officer, who asked, "Is what community in the North, Mr. Hoffman, have you made investigation to find that he is being done for the Negro than is being done for any other group, and about what do you find him complaining?" protection, government system, water supply, lighting facilities, under the guise that he is seeking social equality, he compares every time a Negro with a daughter by a respectable white gentleman, and no redoubts in the courts he complains.

Every time a Negro concludes long distance in a train in interest of a public place which children of a public place are not permitted to see, he complains.

I see no difference between the man who holds me up in the hands, and the man who sits at the desk with the law in his hand and compels me to pay for a thing that I did not get. I see hides behind a tree or a telegraph pole and the other behind the law. There is no difference in my city in which I live has no high school for Negro children, yet I contribute toward the maintenance of the high school that provides training for white children and in addition must send my children to a college or university to get their High School training.

Of course, the reporting out of the bill does not mean that it is Certain that Hh will become a Tas BUC ICTS AT AMPORUTMSTeHr that it places the measure before Congress, where it must be dis- cussed and yoted p or down. The mere fact that an anti-lynching bill is before Congress ought to have sonte effect on those sections jechere lynching is a pastime, ~ T have not seen 4 copy of the bill and do not know its exact provisions The majority committee report was drafted by Repre- sentative Dyer, but from the outline as given in the dispatches it is not the original Dyer Bill, ‘The writer was one of the delegation which appeared before the House Judiciary Committee last January at the hearing on the’ Dyer Bill. He recalls that two other bills were’ offered at that hearing. “It'is probable shgeeBe Lill now before Congress in a compromise of the three bills. : ‘Tlie stronger the laws the bétter: but it is alse true that any anti-lyaching legislation passed by Congress would have a more direct effect than any measures yet tried for the abolishment of this national crime. : ‘Vhe organizations and individuals which have thus far pushed this matter deserve great credit, but the work is nut yet ever. The first hurdle was to get the measure introduced; the second and more dificult hurdle was to get it favorably reported out of committee and placed on the calendar: the third and most difficult hurdle will. be getting the bill to a, vote and passed. ‘Colored organizations and individuals throughout the country abould immediately ‘take the initiative in a suprpime effort :te-lift the Anti-Lynching Bill over this third hurdle. They should at once telegraph and write to their representatives in Congress urging them to support ‘this bill, and they should get as many white organizas tions and individuals ay possible to du likewise. It will be very effective if the women in thuse states where Women have the vote write personal letter. t their Congressmen, nrging the passage of this law ; there is nothing to which a Congress- man from a suffrage state listens more attentively than to a request from a woman voter. Peopic and press should get behind this matter and push it to. the finish. We must not let the Anti-Lynching Bill die where it is, after getting it so far. ens ‘ EDUCATION IN THE UNITED STATES.

"Uncle Jawn" Connor, Daron Wilkins, Capt. Dick Redding and Company, must another trial at cleaning up things in Dyckman's final Sunday. The invaders easily got away with the first game with a 1 to 2 score and held on to the last for eleven innings, when Jeff Jescan played the part of Babe Ruth. Despite the threatening weather, a crowd that almost tried out the capacity of the Photo by McDonald, The New York Aca. Photographer upper Broadway ball park was on hand to view the spectacle. All on the early afternoon the Bacharach Giants, with Capt. Dick minging the singing and Cuban Ronhoaw receiving, had things pretty much their own way. Even though Tesreau's bears had accounted for two allies in the very first inning of the first game, it never seemed to dawn on the Bacharachs that they could lose that A very brief sport in the opening match with the Bears made before the Bears and had Bears warm, the white Bears were unable to score. Redding did not winning ball. During the innings he struck out nine with averaging one man to an innings. The credit does not go to the team that for the winning of a team, nor for the he was getting the team to do credit to any team. Johnny Pugh, Yank Bears in the field received very much due to Capt. Dick's tight giving in the few chances that did not well handled. Most Bears were managed to find Red-Bears all seemed behind. Bears each shortship to a team Lucky played that section team a it has never been played. After the game this wonder man had Bears showing something in the game are, wondering the game are, wondering in this pace through Marcellus, the Bash-Bash had a good day. After the drives that were the hard hitting Bears had up and shot over to a creditable style.

In the aftermath weather, the water and fire grenades was made very hard and the encounter was begun before four o'clock. All of the firemen, Red Ryan, Johnny Boll, Bean Williams, and Captain Ball Dick had been warmed and Redding did not decide till little more than a minute who was going in to do the damage. Soaring. Contrary to common beliefs were not announced hostilities.

Redding brought down the plaudits of round when he fanned the big bather with three in a row, making ten. The last Bear to get up knocked on easy one to Redding and sold himself out at first. Cap Dick had sold himself out of an awful bane and the ball had not left the infield. Jeff got back at Redding by laming in the very next moment when there were not down against the Bachrachas. Neither side seemed able to break the Johnny Pugh came up and knocked one over center field fence in the court. Johnny walked around before breaking the circuit, amusing him by taking up dollar bills which he in the stands threw at him. Marcelo who pushed Pugh tried to throw through it. The most fateful moment in the Bachrachas died using the colored bats against him. In the fifth innning Redding with the first two men and Crouse the second beaten doubled. Brown again came to hat and entered out a long single, which drew on itself from second. There was a nip and touch affair. The Batter shoved in the sixth and the Batter escaped in the seventh and the Terrean's clan again vowed in the eighth when their team Hebblesite, drove out a hower. Cannon Ball Dick then retired the side and the crowd went mad when the Bacharachs evened up the score in the ninth. The teams battled the score in the tenth and no man on either side reached first. The Bacharachs failed to score during their eleventh time at bat. The first man up for the Bears was big Jedi who crashed out a neat hower which broke the tie and credited him with another win over Dick Redding and the Bacharachs. The Bacharachs had broken even but had failed to accomplish what the Bears are credited with against them—a double win in the same day.

The Lincoln Giants won a double header Sunday, May 25 at the Catholic Protector's Grounds. In the first game, the Long Island City B.C. cucumber to the Giants, eleven to ten, and in the second, the Paterson Silk Sox were routed by a score of twelve to two. Impire Olds called the two game at James and Wiley on the fringe line for the Lincoln and Birch and Beauty for the visitors. Batteries for second game were Kill and Wiley for Lincoln, Kerr and Westerman for Paterson. Means Has Off Day. Of the whole Hatcharach lineup, little Lewis Means, the man Reddling has at second, was the only player off form. Means is ordinarily a fast, head player, good with the stick and in the field. He was gotten by "Uncle Jawn" Connor from the Atlanta (Ga.) Deppins at what is considered a fancy price for a colored ball player. Three errors were checked up against; Atlanta younger Sunday afternoon and each one came at a time when it did the opposing team the most good. Neither Capt. Dick nor "Uncle Jawn" Connor said much to him but left the whole matter up to Lundy, who has taken a personal interest in Means. Lundy realizes that his teammate is trying too hard and is urging him to take his time. If Means will pay strict attention to Lundy, there is a chance for him to become a "Grade A" performer around second base. He has shown that he can hit, having gotten to first three times last Sunday on two safeties and an error. And as for Means's speed, it is figured that Johnny Pugh is the only man on the Hatcharach team who can beat him getting down to first. Big things are expected from this Atlanta boy before the season is gone. The Age Wise Right. As was told exclusively in last week's Ace, Culver, the Lincoln Giants' star second baseman has severed his connection with that team. We have not been able to learn the particulars of the break but rumor has it that money matters played, a large part in the differences between Culver and the Lincoln. If reports are true, the star second seeder will not be seen again in the "States" this season for it is alleged that he was seen boarding a train for Canada where Pop Walkins is located. Who Wants to Be Humpty Dumpty? We have heard some few comments about some of our players not doing their best in recent games. Reports have if that some players have been negotiating with other teams whose managers are offering them more money despite the contracts held by teams with which the said players are now engaged. Certain players are accused of "playing down" in order to have their present employers bounce them, whereupon they intend jumping with their tempers. Colored ball players today are drawing more money than they have ever driven before. It behooves them there- fore to try harder than they have ever trived before. In laying down they hurt the game and commend equal aid. THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, MAY 29, 1920 New York City. May 30th to June 5th SUNDAY, MAY 30TH, 2 P. M.

The Bochechars have new foes to conquer. Next Sunday, May 30, they will oppose The Bronx Giants in a double header at Bronx Oval, 104th street and Westchester avenue. The Bronx Giants are being managed by "Heinie" Zinmerman, last year's third sacker for the New York Giants. Zinmerman's team has established a record thus far this season by sweeping every thing in front of it. They realize that the Rochechars are a hard lot to trim, but think themselves capable of doing the trick. In the opening encounter, Red Ryan of the Bacharachy will get his start against "Southpaw" Johnny Schwartz of the Bronx clan. Red promises to burn the Bronx boys up with his offerings Sunday. This sorrel top finger of the Bacharach is one man who thinks the Bacharach infield—consisting of Pierce, Means, Marcelles and the sensational Dick Lundy—the equal of any in the country. Ryan has told Capt. Dick Redding that if he doesn't win his game Sunday he doesn't want any salary for the work. Second Game the Feature. The feature of the afternoon will be the meeting on the mound of George Lynch of the New York Fire Department and Cannon Ball Dick Redding. Lynch has five consecutive wins to his credit this season and is eager to establish a record. Redding's twenty-one innning duel with Tessau's team last Sunday just about shows the wonderful shape he is in and he does not intend to ease up on the Bronx Giants. The Bronx Oval will hold just about 15,000 people. The management is preparing to receive a capacity crowd. The 135th and 145th street crosswalk cars transfer to Westchester avenue cars which pass directly in front of the field. "Uncle Jawn" Connor and the Bacharach team will leave 135th street and Lenox avenue in a big sightseeing car at 12:30 Sunday afternoon bound for the park. The first game will start at 2:10 sharp, and the second will get under way at 4 p.m. BROWN OF HOWARD STRIKES OUT. 14 WASHINGTON, D. C.—In the game between Howard and Lincoln Universities last Saturday, the Washington boys came out on top after a wonderful pitcher's battle had been waged between Earl Brown of Howard and Tomkins of Lincoln. Brown succeeded in out-pitching the Lincoln men, having sixteen strike outs to his credit, while the latter could only account for five. The game was not one sided however, for but five hits were counted off the Pennsylvania hurler, Johnson, who placed right field for Lincoln came next to pitcher Tomkins in gaining the plaudits of the crowd. Paine and Johnson started for Howard at bat and on the bases. Howard has since met the Morgan college now and beaten the Baltimoreans in a one-sided, even running game. Morgan used two pitchers, Sorrrell and Spinard, but were unable to stop the hard hitting Howard men. Washington to Have Fast Team Washington, D.C. - Washington has been without a good colored semi-professional baseball team for some time. Not since the disbandment of the Washington Giants has Washington had a representative colored team. After much persuasion of several business men and other dyes in the wool fans and well-wishers of the game, R. Hayes Jones has come out of retirement and reorganized the Washington Giants. He has associated with him in the backing of the team such business men as N. L. Gaskin, Charles Edelhin and Harry Barnie. He says he has gotten together a pretty good team. He will again use some of his old players: Ham, Beaty, Cangua, Boone and Big Adams. June Matthews of Baltimore, one of the fastest short-tops and base runners of the East, has been signed up. Jones hosts of a husky a pitching staff as any colored team in the country - Big Adams, Imp Williams, B. Browne, Cangua, Watkins and Parker. Ham and Boone will do the back stopping, while Tom Beaty will be the heavy pinch hitter. It is his intention to meet the fast colored teams of the country. They will play ever Sunday at Union League Stadium. The opening game will be May 20, the hotning games will be May 20.
