FOR QUALITY READ The New York Age THE HOME PAPER VOLUME 34. NO. 10. THE NATIONAL MAGAZINE WEEKLY NEW YORK, NO. 1, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1889 BEST ENTERTAINMENT KNOWN PRICE FIVE CENTS Washington Red Cross Nurses Colored Nurses to Meeting But Subjects Them to Neglect and Insults from Soldier Washington, D. C.—Certain of the nurses from Freedmen's Hospital have very decided and uncomplimentary opinions as to the good faith and sincerity of the American Red Cross when it protests friendliness, good will and freedom from color prejudice in contact with its Negro members and supporters. These opinions were shaped by treatment accorded a group of colored nurses on the afternoon of Sunday, November 14, at the big Red Cross meeting held at the National Theatre, 18th street and Pennyvillain avenue. Did Not Want to Go. The nurses are particularly sore at the treatment received because their attendance was not voluntary, a request from one to be excused from attending drawing the information that the request could not be granted as all nurses off duty must attend the meeting. Fourteen nurses in full uniform went from Freedman's Hospital to the National Theatre for the meeting, in accordance with the notice received, which also stated that "seats would be reserved." The story of how the nurses were treated at the theatre is told plainly and accurately by one of the young women, who writes so The Age as follows: To the Editor of The Age: "The following is only a small incident compared to some, which our people have had to suffer from the Caucasian race, but it is a big thing to me because I actually experienced it, being my first time. A notice was posted in the effect that all nurses "off duty" on the afternoon of November 14th, 1920, were expected to attend a Red Cross meeting, in full uniform, to be held at the National Theatre, and that seats would be reserved." Strange to say, all of us rebelled at once, but after one nurse asked to be excused and was informed it was impossible that the must go, the rest of us came to the conclusion that the affair was compulsory instead of an invitation) and accordingly fourteen nurses went with resistance. had an official chaperon. "But our group of uniformed nurses, representing Freedman's Hospital, one of the largest institutions, had not one official as chaperon. A street car conductor remarked, as we boarded the car, "Hm, where is the chaperon?" Imagine our chaperon. But, we can be chaperoned to a dance, for fear we may say something to an interest that they would not bear. "You may rest assured that we did not remain until the end of the program, although we are attending classes, and this is a bitter from another group of "those poor, crippled soldiers." I regret that I remained that long. Discriminations at Lectures. "We are required in our course of study to attend a certain number of Red Cross lectures by white nurses. Every senior class can tell of incidents at these lectures; for instance, as to how they were given broken-seated chairs to sit on, and again, how all of them, from twelve to fourteen in number, were crowded together on one dilapidated settee. "Our music room of the "Nurses Home" is the only recreation room we have, and it is deprived of that, as it is used for the "Colored Red Cross." "In the time we reached the theatre and went in. We were hot met by any one, so we proceeded with hesitation into the main auditorium. We were given programs by a Red Cross nurse and then we stood in the rear of the seats like so many sheep in a strange pasture." No one offering to show, or other us to our "reserved seats," the oldest nurse in training finally led us into the third row from the rear, while the white uniform nurses occupied frost seats and individuals in citizen clothes were ushered to rows of seats directly behind them. Insulted by Crippled Soldiers. "A group of soldiers, unable to do anything but hobble on crutches, declared that they did not want "to sit behind that black cloud," and so they were ordered to box seats. "The first four numbers of the program had been rendered, the fourth being a motion picture, "The Spirit of Sorrow" when another body of white moses were ushered in and taken to the floor of the theatre where seats were provided for them by having outsiders to move. They had been relieved of their wraps at the check room, while we had to "check out by folding them across our knees and on the backs of the chairs. "Now the saddest and most humiliating part.

Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune, principal of the Daytona Normal and Industrial Institute, Inc., for Negro girls, is in the North seeking financial support for her school. Mrs. Bethune's work is of incalculable benefit and has been endorsed by prominent colored and white leaders North and South. She is making her New York headquarters at a given Brooklyn, N.Y. Prospect 320 W. is making an especial effort to secure one hundred colored contributors who will lignate $10 each. The school enrollment for the present term is 200, and Mrs. Bethune reports that 200 girls are on the list for entrance. Results of the campaign now being conducted will be reported in 7th Ave. (Special to The New York Am) Quincy, Mo.-How more than $4,200 was raised on the final day of the Social Center drive in an interesting story. The scene has its setting in the Bethel A. M. E. Church on Oak street Sunday morning. Present in addition to the local workers and Prof. and Mrs. A. E. Malone of St. Louis, formerly of Quincy and who still feel themselves residents of Quincy, were several prominent Negroes from different parts of the United States. They were brought to Quincy to assist in the drive by A. E. Malone, who is now rated as one of the few Negro millionaires in the United States. Among them were Dr. J. E. Moorland of Washington; Gerald Tyler, director of music in St. Louis schools and Frank L. Williams, principal of Summer High school in St. Louis. MONEY IS RAISED FAST Just little more than $5,000 of the $10,000 fund had been raised when the meeting was held. The teams reported about $1,100 and after Dr. Moorland made an address Prof. Williams started out to raise $500 in the audience and he did so in twenty minutes. Dr. Moorland announced that the sum then reached $7,958. "If anyone will make it $6,000, I will give the other $3,200" announced Professor Malone, who has been in charge of the campaign. S. H. Shmaker rushed forward with the needed $5 and down down came Malone's $3,200. A great short went up at once and the church presented a dramatic scene. While some abused others wept, handkerchiefs were waved, the doxology was sung and there was general rejoicing. At the final meeting many people doubled their previous pledges. Capt. W. W. Fields led the van of Quince citizens with a pledge of $200. Professor and Ms. Malone started the drive by giving several hundred dollars and closed up with Malone's subscription of $3,200. Before the meeting bridge Prof. and Mr. Malone called forward and Prof. R. A. Roberts designed to accompany gratitude of the people for the interest manifested by them in the campaign. TO CONTINUE DRIVE The various teams of workers in the campaign will continue their work for some time. When the meeting closed Sunday $10,007 had been pledged. It is expected that a few of these will not be paid and the teams will continue to take pledges to make up for what is lost. Subscriptions also will be taken from those who did not have a chance to subscribe before the campaign closed. Mr. and Mrs. Malone will return to Quincy about November 21 to systematize the collection of the pledges. MONUMENT IN GEORGIA TO HEROES OF LATEWAR (Special to THE NEW YORK ACE) Fairburn, Ga.—The people of Campbell county have put on Fairburn's main street a monument to the soldiers of this county who suffered wounds or death in the Great War. Two sides of the monument carry the names of white soldiers, with the names of the battles in which they suffered or died. Two sides are similarly inscribed with the names of colored soldiers who died or were wounded. On top of the shaft is a globe of granite inscribed with the words "Their all for Democracy and the Freedom of the World." A white Atlanta paper finds the monument a tribute, not only to the soldiers, but to the justice and patriotism of Campbell county citizens. NATIONAL BANKING PROGRAM UNDER WAY Washington, D. C.-Since 1912, when the National Negro Business League met in Chicago, Illinois, the Negro banking institutions of the country have been seeking banking affiliations which would put them in line with the great banking establishments of the country. At the recent meeting of the National Negro Business League in Philadelphia, August, 1920, Dr. Emmet J. Scott, secretary, invited certain representatives of New York banking interests to meet with a group of colored bankers in Philadelphia. At that conference a full, free and informal interchange of opinions took place, leading to a decision to pursue the effort to a final conclusion so that colored banks may not be handicapped in the future as they have been in the past by lack of sympathetic help and cooperation at the hands of the larger banking interests of the country. Negotiations are now under way leading to closer affiliations of this character and the effort is being supported by some of the most important of the community and national banking institutions of the country. A capital fund of $1,000,000 will finance the program. Full enrollment of the schools is expected, to be made in New York, when the work for these. The information for displaying information here Haiti's President Charges U. S. With Breaking Treaty Makes Serious Reflections Upon American Government Officials—Civil Oppression Worse than Outrages by Marines Philip Sudre Dartiguenave. President of Haiti, has issued a formal statement relative to American Occupation of his country, in which he declared that the United States has broken its treaty agreements, that the American financial adviser, McIlhenwy, is dictatorial, and that the civil oppression is worse than the acts of the Marines, who are alleged to have wantonly killed several thousand Haitians. This statement was furnished by President Dartiguenave to Wilbur Forrest, special representative of the New York Tribune, and was published in New York on November 23. It is an elaboration of oral statements made to the correspondent several days ago, when the Haitian President demanded that a Congressional investigation be instituted into the conduct of Haiti's civil affairs, on the ground that the inquiry being conducted by the naval board was so limited as to make a review of the real trouble impossible. According to Forrest, the detailed charges now put forth writing by President Dartmouth, reflecting upon the American government officials in Haiti, are no serious that the sincerity and good name of the United States are challenged throughout the Western Hemisphere. The President's statement was written in French and the English translation used in The Tribune was made by Mr. Forrest and cabled from Pct. A. Prine. Allegheny Branch of County The treaty obligation the United States to contribute to the economic development of Haiti amortizes her finances, augments her resources and otherwise works towards her betterment, has not been observed, he charged. "The Haitian economy is under humiliating grievances in the lack of cooperation, he said, its efforts to collaborate with good will are vain, disliked and troubled. The civil administration is not oppressive than the military administration." On further inspection of the documents are Financial Adviser Lynn A. Mellhenay, of Louisiana, sent here to see that the financial provisors of the treaty were respected and American Minister Bailey Blanchard. "The function of the financial adviser, such as they are defined in Article II of the treaty, remains without doubt, a great financial experience," said the President. "The essential consideration seems to have been considered in the choice of the financial adviser." The Executive minister to a deal in French francs made by Mellhenay last year involving $100,000 of Haitian revenues as a time when francs were exchanged for dollars and a fraction for the dollar, a deal which the adviser stated "was for the best interests of Haiti." "Shortly after that the American dollar was valued at about seventeen dollars per pound, and this operation caused for the Haitian people a loss of several million francs." Scorea Financial Adviser Under the terms of Paragraph 16 of the treaty the Haitian President named, on the proposition of the President of the United States, a financial adviser, who became an official at Providence Police Must Not Negro Students at Brice—Board of Comm That Prejudice Will Providence Police Officers Must Not Show Prejudice Negro Students at Brown Held Up By Police-Board of Commissioners Issue Order That Prejudice Will Not Be Tolerated (Special to THE NEW YORK ACE) Providence, R. L.—Treatment accorded Negro students on Halloween night by two police officers is directly respond an order issued by the Board of Police Commissioners of department, in which it is declared that colored people are receive the same courtesy and consideration from police off the white population. "In no unmistakable terms," declares the order, "the I clear its position on this matter. Our colored citizens must unjustified treatment by members of the police department." Providence, R. I.—Treatment accorded Negro students of Brown University on Halloween night by two police officers is directly responsible, it is alleged, for an order issued by the Board of Police Commissioners of this city to the police department, in which it is declared that colored people are entitled to and must receive the same courtesy and consideration from police officers as is extended to the white population. "In no unmistakable terms," declares the order, "the board desires to make clear its position on this matter. Our colored citizens must be accorded just and unimprisoned treatment by members of the police department." Students Held Up by Police. Two students, a young man and woman, were held up on Halloween night, by two police officers and subjected to the most humiliating treatment. The local branch N. A. A. C. P., Wm. H. P. Freeman, president, protected strongly against the unfortunate treatment accorded the young students, and the order, from the commissioner is a result. Charges have been preferred also against the two offending police officers. And every effort will be made to have them adequately punished. While avoiding any specific statement as to the incidents referred to, the order refers directly to the Holloway's night episode. The full text is as follows: "Pursued by frequent complaints and a severe repercussions including involving certain persons, the amount of the entire department is directed so the first that the suspended inhabitants of your city are entitled to and more severely the same quantity and persecution with all police and the other authorities." The adviser in the Haitian official paid $10,000 in American money per year from the Haitian public funds. "In reality," said Haiti's President, "the financial adviser does not report to the Haitian government; it is the Haitian government which he aspiries to subject to his sovereign will. The facts are numerous which show the opposite of what the financial adviser attributes himself: Nothing can give a more striking idea of this omnisotence than the confiscation by the financial adviser, aided by the American Minister, of the salaries of the President of the Republic, the Secretaries of State and the members of the Legislative Council, because the contract, of the National Bank of Haiti (an establishment controlled by the National City Bank of New York) a clause prohibiting the importation into Haiti of foreign gold, which the adviser wished to ipmose." Says Bank Sought Monopoly This measure, if voted, The Tribune the issue, would have granted the National City Bank monopolistic import privilege on all foreign gold. It already controls the issuance of Haitian paper money, the signature of R. L. Farmham, vice-president of the National City Bank, appearing on the Haitian currency. The Haitian President, delving further into the alleged indiscretions of our civil offices here, requotes the preamble of the solemn agreement between the two nations, bound by their signatures, given here in part: "The United States and the Republic of Haiti, desiring to confirm and strengthen the unity existing between them by the most cordial cooperation in measures for their common advantage, and the Republic of Haiti desiring to rentely present conditions of its revenues and finances, maintain the tranquility, carry out plans for the economic development and prosperity of the republic and its people, and the United States, in full sympathy with all these aims and objects," etc. Discounm Economic Clauses "Peace," said the President, "is Haiji's indispensable need."

Has Earned Respect and Keepsem. A very large number of our colored inhabitants are to be found among our most respected and substantial citizenship, and many have attained prominence in the professions and in our institutions of learning. The colored people served this country well and faithfully in the late world a war, as well as in previous struggles on the battlefield and at home, and the lawmaking, self-respecting Negro has earned for himself the respect and esteem of the other people of the community. Many are substantial category, thereby contributing to the financial requirements of our Government, from whose treasury the public appropriations is provided. In the establishment terms, the colored people are equally great for the ministry, the national government, and the public. Wanted to Eliminate New York Age Editor Demanded His Removal As Publicity Chairman in Recent Campaign Signers of the Letter Alleged Newspapermen's Association Objected to Mr. Moore Because He Was Not a "Member"--Editors "and Others" Sign Now that the election is over and the Republican party has made such an unprecedented sweep of the country, it is possible for THE NEW YEAR ACE to give publicity to a development of the campaign which was interesting, even though absolutely futile. Fred R. Moore, editor of THE ACE, was elected as chairman of the publicizing committee of the Colored Advisory Committee of the East, of which Andrew Stevens of Philadelphia was chairman, the selection being made by members of the Advisory Committee when its organization was perfected. Election Aroused Antagonism. section of Mr. Moore was announced, it c it favorable, but some part of it of an so far as any tangible expression was given organization designated as the Manhattan New a membership composed of colored men number of publications, including some n of alleged newspaper men, with a tem shall be heard, has T.

Tryce is named as chairman When the election of Mr. Moore was announced, it created considerable interest, most of it favorable, but some part of it of an antagonistic nature. The antagonism, so far as any tangible expression was given, appeared to have centered in the organization designated as the Manhattan Newspaper Men's Association, which has a membership composed of colored men who are alleged representatives of a number of publications, including some newspapers published by white men. This association of alleged newspaper men, with a temporary address, according to its official headline, has T. Thomas Fortune as honorary president, Chin T. Mull as president; Herman M. Stucker, vice-president; Wes White, congressman; Professor L. H. Hoods, recording secretary; and WBH R. Bain, treasurer. Hudson C. Tryce is named as chairman of the extensive committee. Not a Member of Association. is not a member of the Manhattan News one of Ting Au staff. We have to operate in the minds of the offiMr. Moore unit for the position of public written to a prominent member of the Color that not being a member of the newspaper is repeatedly asked to join, Mr. Moore was tions of the association or with any of its publications. The letter declared further that harmoniously with such a man as publici Editor Moore is a member of the Manhattan Newspaper Men's Association, nor is any one of Ting Ao's staff. This fact seems to have operated in the minds of the officers of the organization to render Mr. Moore unit for the position of publicity chairman, and so a letter was written to a prominent member of the Colored Advisory Committee, declaring that not being a member of the newspaper men's organization, though he had been repeatedly asked to join, Mr. Moore was not in accord with any of the publications of the association or with any of its writers employed on these various publications. The letter declared further that these newspapers could not "work harmoniously with such a man as publicity chairman." An Ultimatum to the Advisory Board. of the letter then delivered the following Committee: e then to the Republican party, whose best love, we request that Mr. Fred. R. Moore's man be recinded and in his place, we ask that s, any of whom are well qualified, be so dumetuation are theirs, the italics are ours, it might be noted that previously to a presentatives of a Chicago race paper, holders of the National Republican Committee, eliminate against the Chicago paper in favor received to the effect that the member of reply to the complaint of discrimination, the speak spoken in fair terms of the Chicago largest circulation of any Negro publication of record, of course, that Mr. Moore certify until the campaign ended in Republic The writers of the letter then delivered the following ultimatum to the Colored Advisory Committee: "In justice then to the Republican party, whose best interest we all wish to conserve, we request that Mr. Fred. R. Moore's designation as publicity chairman be recinded and in his place, we ask that some member of our association, any of whom are well qualified, be so designated." The spelling and punctuation are theirs, the italics are ours. In this connection, it might be noted that previously to the writing of this letter, the local representatives of a Chicago race paper had written a letter to one of the members of the National Republican Committee, declaring that Mr. Moore would discriminate against the Chicago paper in favor of Tucson. Information has been received to the effect that the member of the National Committee wrote, in reply to the complaint of discrimination, that to the contrary Mr. Moore had already spoken in fair terms of the Chicago paper, referring to it as having the largest circulation of any Negro publication in the country. It is a master of record, of course, that Mr. Moore commanded to serve as chairman of publicity until the campaign ended in Republican victory.

It is given exactly as written. August 17th, 1924. Dear sir: "On behalf of the Manhattan Newspaper Men's Association, an organization representing the best publications of the race in New York, of which I have the honor of being president, may I not call your attention to a matter concerning the National Republican Committee, Colored Advisory committee of the East. At a meeting of your committee held Monday in this city, we learn that Mr. Fred R. Moore, editor of the New York Acc, has been designated chairman of publicity for the national republican campaign in this territory. "A glance at the publications represented in this association will show you that the New York Acc is not represented, notwithstanding the fact that it has been repeatedly asked to join. Moreover, we say to you that Mr. Moore is not in accord with any of the newspapers or periodicals of our association; nor is he in accord with any of the writers employed on these various publications. Thus it will be readily seen that the newspapers in this section, whose combined circulation, apart from the Acc, and including the New York circulation of the Chicago Defender reaches more than 100,000 weekly, cannot work harmoniously with such a man as publicity chairman. "In justice then to the Republican party, whose best interest we all wish to conserve, we request that Mr. Fred R. Moore's designation as publicity chairman be recinded and in his place, we ask that some member of our association, any of whom are well qualified, be so designated.

BE SURE THIS SEAL IS UNBROKEN (Continued from First Pace) In session at Port au Port Prince. But also how has the United States otherwise contributed to its treaty obligations?—the economic development of Haiti, the amelioration of its finances, augmentation of its resources, as it has accepted the solemn management before the Haitian people. He charges: "We can respond without possible contradiction; no effective aid has been given for development of agricultural and industrial resources; no serious measure has been proposed in order of placing the finances on a truly solid base." He quotes official figures to show that Haiti's revenues in both dollars and gourds (the native money, valued at 20 cents) have fallen off nearly a million dollars and a million gourds during the budget year 1918-19, as compared with 1913-14, before the intervention, and when Haitians handled their own finances. "What about the 'most cordial cooperation' on the part of our officials?" the President asks. "We touch here on the strangest situation for the Haitian government, but only can it not do what is necessary for the intellectual development and economic prosperity of the country, but all efforts in this sense on the part of the government are opposed. The numerous financial projects, agricultural, educational, administrative and rural organizations meet the opposition of the American officials or lie without response in the archives of the American Legion. Financial Advisor Absolute "When the financial adviser proposes a measure he understands that this measure must be adopted by the government (Haitian) without observation. When the Haitian government proposes one it is rejected without examination or we are notified regarding modifications which must be accepted without discussion." The Haitian President sums up one of his most serious charges when he says: "And it is in the name of the government of the United States that the American Minister comes each time to impose upon the Haitian government and people the least commendable measures paid for by Haitian money. And if the government refuses the worst humiliations are inflicted." He declares that Haitian government projects are most often relied on the argument that there is no money while "it is well understood that there is plenty of money for American services." He cites the employment by Mr. McIlhenny of "catchers" in Port-au-Prince at $250 monthly because he was hired as a plague in New Orleans while at the same time Mr. McIlhenny refined son three Haitian aspirants for fellowships in the University of France offered by the French government for the Village of Port-au-Prince. He adds: "Article II of the treaty says the financial adviser will devise an adequate system of public accounts." Control of Finances Lost We still await this. Instead, the financial adviser has brought about the suppression of an Haitian institution—the Chamber of Accounts. Despite all the efforts of the government to reconstitute this indispensable organ of control, the adviser has refused it. Consequently there is no means for the Haitian people to control its finances, taken over entirely by the American officials of the treaty. Article U of the treaty will aid in Article II of the treaty says that in the augmentation of the revenue, "The only attempt in this direction was a project in 1918 regarding interior taxes, which he wished the government to vote in twenty-four hours. The measure was so skilpeac and badly made that the government was forced to reject it and prepare a counter project. It has been nearly twenty months since this counter project was returned to the financial adviser for a new study. Why say more?" "Article 11 of the treaty says: 'The financial adviser . . . will inquire into the validity of the debts of the republic . . . recommend perfected banking methods . . . judged necessary for the wellbeing and prosperity of the republic.'" No Inquiry Into Debts "No inquiry into the validity of our debts has been made. "No perfected banking methods have been recommended" "No recommendations for the wellbeing and prosperity of the republic have yet been made to the Haitian government." "The Haitian Executive explained that, under the treaty, the funds which are to be delivered to the Haitian government are set forth, though under the financial adviser's interpretation the 'Haitian government itself is not allowed to determine what amount of money it shall have for operating expenses' "This has never been determined because' he charged, 'to hold the Haitian government in leash for powers each time it resists a 'non-justifiable exigency' to exercise upon it a pressure which oblives it to submit, it is necessary that, from the financial point of view, the Haitian government be held under the absolute dependence of the financial adviser and receiver general. (The receiver general is Mr. Maunas, a subordinate of the financial adviser.)" "We have been accused by several American newspapers of not paying our debts before the occupation. This is quite false. Despite all her financial difficulties, Haiti has always honored her signature. The payment of the foreign debt has not been suspended except upon the occupation." Willing to Trust U. S. Outlining a program with which he believes Harty will thrive under the guidance of the United States, including the "loyal and cordial cooperation promised by the treaty of 1915" the Hartan Executive said: "If this program is applied with Dignity, the Hartan people will forget the humiliation brought to all proud peoples by foreign intervention, will accord all their confidence, friendship and all their thanks to the great United Nations." Article II of the treaty deals with finances. It is the Hartan President's direct accusation that this article has been made a dead letter by Financial Adviser McIlheen, who simply ignores it. THE NEW YORK AGE SATURDAY NOVEMBER 27, 1920 "He takes no account of urgent credits and accessories of the Haitian government in virtue of the law; he makes expenses at his own will to violation of the law," said the Haitian Executive, "and he obliges the government to ratify them." The entire statement prepared by President Dartiguenave took into little account the conditions which brought about the scrutiny of conditions in Haiti by an American naval board. He complains even mildly of the military courts which, it has been charged, usurp the functions of the Haitian judiciary. He makes a joint complaint against the military and civil officials in declaring that the American Minister refuses to approve the appointment of Haitian civil functionaries who might keep the Haitian President informed of conditions in his own country. No Cooperation by Marines The Haitian gendarmerie, the native military force, officered by marines, are allowed to report only to the chief of the American occupation, and in case one of the remaining civil functionaries of the Haitian government—a government messenger or communal magistrate—is so bold as to report to his native chief executive, he faces the loss of stipend which must come from the American-controlled finances, or a trial before a military court martial. The President mildly indicts former American military chiefs in charge of the native gendarmerie when he says of Colonel Wise and Colonel Hooker, in command during the last two years: "They are the only ones since they have commanded the gendarmerie to recognize the complaints they have received from the Haitian functionaries and to investigate the facts disclosed. "In resume, the Haytian government is under humiliating guardianship for lack of cooperation. Its efforts to collaborate with good will are vain, disbanded and repulsed. It seems that there does not exist between the two governments an analogous contract that the two parties are obliged to respect." NEWS OF THE CHURCHES Mother Zion Church. Dr. Brown preached an eloquent sermon to a packed house last Sunday morning at Mother Zion Church, and again at the evening service to the Leech Association and their invited guests. At Rush Memorial Church, Dr. George M. Oliver, pastor, Dr. Brown preached. It was rally day, and the collection was generous. Officers of Mother Zion, a delegation of the membership, and the choir, which furnished the music, were in attendance. The program as provided by the Leech Association was out of the ordinary. There were instrumental as well as vocal numbers. Fourteen persons joined the church during the day. The fair, which is still in town, has been exceedingly well attended during the past week. The programs of the concerts have been of a high order. The dinners have drawn appreciable patronage and the booths have experienced difficulty in keeping supplied with fancy articles. "The Thanksgiving Habit" was the topic of a lively Christian Endeavor meeting, despite the absence of the president, Mrs. Hattie Dyson, and the treasurer, Mrs. Mary E. Pingott who were both absent on account of illness. The Sunday School registered the largest attendance in its history.

The Bible class conducted under the Dr. Moton, at Columbia University, Declares That the Best White People of South Favor Supression of Lawlessness "In some ways the South is moving forward relatively much faster than the North in the matter of facing frankly the situation with regard to the Negro," said Dr. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, in an address at Columbia University, on Monday night November 22. "In spite of much that is reported as happening to the contrary, the best white people of the South, representing all walks of life, are organizing inter-racial groups in every community for the purpose of creating a sentiment in favor of the suppression of all forms of lawlessness and injustice and bringing about more amicable relations between the races. "The attitude of the South towards the Negro has been rapidly undergoing a change as it becomes better acquainted with the thousands of my race who are successful in business and strong in all of the elements of good citizenship. It is this type of Negro that the Negro schools of the South are turning out every year, and it is this type of Negro which is being called more and more into counsel by the white people of the South, who are interested in this inter-racial cooperation. "Getting Acquainted." "Getting Acquainted, is one of the essentials of understanding between races, and right here in New York there are strong intellectual men and women of my race whose lives of unselfish service would be a revelation to thousands of Northern white people if they but knew them. I wish that you would take the time to visit some of the Negro business enterprises right here in Harlem; to see some of the beautiful homes." Opinion Based on Headlines. "This inter-racial work is among individuals and small groups therefore it is less spectacular and does not lend itself readily to newspaper treatment. Quite naturally you form your opinions of race relations in the South by the headlines in your newspaper. Crime or alleged crime by a Negro has more news value than a meeting of strong colored and white men assembled in a community to check a mob outbreak, in order that the guilt or innocence of the accused may be established in the orderly processes of the court. "The mob outbreak would have immense news value, but the quiet work of the compitee which saved the innocent Negro from violent death—as frequently happens—is only of local interest. The Negro law breaker has easier access to newspaper columns than the fifty-two Negro bank presidents in the South, one of whom is a woman; than the fifty thousand Negroes who are conducting successful business enterprises; than the thousands of physicians, dentists and other professional men, who in a quiet way are contributing to the educational, moral and material advancement, not only of their own race, but auspices of the Brown Chapter of the Methodist Brotherhood meet every Wednesday evening from 8:30 to 9:30. Robert Henderson is a very capable teacher. The annual election of officers of the Brown Chapter of the Methodist Brotherhood and Sisterhood will be held on Thursday evening, December 2nd.

"Getting Acquainted, is one of the essentials of understanding between races, and right here in New York there are strong intellectual men and women of our race who possess of unselfish service would be a revelation to thousands of Northern white people if they but knew them. I wish that you would take the time to visit some of the Negro business enterprises right here in Harlem; to see some of the beautiful homes of culture and refinement among the colored people and to know the men and women who are constant influences for good among our people. "It is possible that the attitude of the hundred and fifty thousand colored people in Harlem would not be what it is if it were not for this strong, intelligent, conservative group who are always thoughtful of the best interest of their community but who, unfortunately are not always considered in matters affecting their race. "Conditions in the South are infinitely more hopeful than heretofore. In connection with the race problem, because of the large and increasing group of intelligent and thoughtful Negroes and because more and more is basing its opinion, upon the intelligent rather than the supposedly criminal Negro. "The world will never have peace until justice is vouchsafed to every individual—every race; whether that race be poor or weak, black or brown, and America's greatness will be measured, not merely in her battleships, her stand-alone army, her merchant marine, her art collection, her libraries, her business achievements, but in the last analysis, by the attitude she assumes towards weaker peoples." $105 and $144.32, respectively.

ANALYZING THE VOTE Among the post-election processes of every political campaign is the effort to analyze the vote and draw from the figures recorded satisfaction for the quenquished, as may be required. Among the many attempts to account for the overwhelming majorities that burden the Democratic candidates and their policies on Nov. 2, was an effort to analyze the adverse vote recorded in the South, by a Southerner in a letter published in the New York World. His conclusions were as follows: In Louisiana it was the high-tariff sugar manufacturing interests that vetoed the Republican ticket. In Oklahoma it was the manufacturing of interest, the Northern population and that part of the Southern population which was led by Senator Moore who was one of those who collaborated the Administration during the war. It was this latter element that appointed Senator Elect Watson, of Georgia. It is this same element that will endeavor to re-elect Senator Vardaman of Mississippi. It is a fragment of the old Populist vote that threes on race prejudice. It is the same element that forms the mobs in the Lynchings of the South. In Tennessee it was quite a different vote. It was the regular Republican vote of East Tennessee plus a large number of Democratic voters who are opposed to the boss-ridden party in that State plus a very large Negro vote, which is larger in Tennessee than any other Southern State except Kentucky. This Negro vote strange to say, has been fostered by the very strong Democratic base in the eradicate ticket. The Democratic bases in Memphis, Nashville and Chattanooga who pattern their political machines after Tammany, have catered to the Negro vote in municipal elections to further their political fortunes and have at last thrown them into national politics. All this sounds plain like enough, are the result in Tennessee, the only State where a ratt was actually recorded in the wild South, was barely due to the Negro vote. The policy of the Democratic bosses of the large cities of Tennessee in cultivating this vote points the way to the redemption of the South from political allegacy. Tennessee has broken the double-digit vote for helpless to the hard-wheel of Democratic autocracy. With some of the constituencies in the big bean party are loosened and the class of voters will hereafter feel free to vote for the best interests of the section they belong to regardless of party. It will be a good thing for the South and for the Nation when the Negroes will feel free to vote as their personal interests may dictate, regardless of the fact whether the candidate is tagged Republican or Democrat. If a sufficient number of the white politicians of the South shared the horse sense that characterized those Democratic bosses in Tennessee, the Negro vote would be divided on local state issues. The bogus body of Negro domination would be relegated to the political trash bag and the racial problem would be in a fair way, to a successful solution. The Southwest who sought to analyze the votes that he uncovered, or else sought to discount his discovery about the Negro race. Being the most amiable, the most dignified, the most loyal and the most humble of all races when it is left alone. "He added these words of warnings." Those who would exploit the Negro race for advancing their political power are the worst enemies the colored man could possibly have and the most dangerous enemies to gravity in general. There is a great difference between political recognition, and it is the latter than the Negro seeks, neither dominance nor exploitation. Let the political issues both North and South study the same laws and conditions. from them. But let them bear in mind that if the solid South is finally broken, it will be with the active aid and cooperation of the Negro voters. The Negroes could always be relied upon to support the best interests of the South, if given proper encouragement and protection. BLOTS ON THE RED CROSS: It is greatly to be regretted that the otherwise admirable work of the Red Cross Society should be married at times by the cropping out of racial discrimination on public occasions, such described in a story from Washington, which we publish in this issue. According to this public notice was given that all nurses were expected to attend a Red Cross meeting held Sunday, November 14, at the National Theatre. But when the group of colored nurses from the Freedmen's Hospital appeared in uniform they were treated with studied neglect and discourtesy. Exactly who were the officials responsible for the failure to escort this group to the seats that were announced to be reserved for them does not appear, but the responsibility for this discrimination on account of color ties directly at the door of the Red Cross management. While individual officers and members of the Society have disclaimed the drawing of any lines of race or color, the official management of the Society has failed to make its policy clear and definite in this particular. Prejudiced officials have therefore felt at liberty to indulge their propensity to neglect and insult, by discrimination or segregation, colored nurses and individuals of the race who were obliged to come into contact with them. This cultivation of the spirit of race prejudice is unworthy of such a great organization as the Red Cross. Its responsible management should take the effective measures to free the Society from this blemish on its escutcheon. The women of the race rallied to the work of the Red Cross during the World war and contributed largely of their time and labor toward the relief work for the soldiers. It is only fair that the broad and generous feeling that was manifested by many of the chapters at that period should be recognized and perpetuated in the national organization Let the Red Cross free itself from even the suspicion of racial prejudice and discrimination. Let the National management call in conference the broad-minded leaders of the work in New York and they will learn how to put their work on such a basis as will justify its pretensions and prevent such unpleasant happenings in future. INFLATED PRICES. Many individuals who do their shopping in the Harlem district complain of the inflated prices for articles in every day demand, charged by the retail storekeepers. Advantage is frequently taken of the ignorance and inexperience of some of their customers to mark up the prices charged far beyond the market value. This is profiteering of the rankest kind, and it is a practice that threatens to renouvel to the disadvantage of those who persist in it. The customer who finds that he, or she, has been cajoled or fooled, into paying a price greater than would be charged at the ordinary establishment cannot be expected to entertain any great degree of goodwill for the storekeeper who has gouged him in this manner. As a result he will make his future purchases at some place where he can depend upon fair treatment and pay only the market price for his goods. The fact that he may be paying the inflated price to a merchant of his own race will not hold him, if the price charged is out of reason. The stockkeeper who is doing a legitimate business knows what the preexisting prices should be for commodities in which he deals. He must not go much beyond those prices if he wants to hold his trade. He must so regulate his purchases and overhead expenses as to be able to sell at the market price and still make a reasonable profit. If he cannot do this, he had better get out of business at once, before he gets any deeper. This is a matter of good judgment. As for the storekeeper who habitually short changes his customers, he is dishonest and his offence ranks a petty larceny. As soon as his weakness is discovered by the majority of his customers, he may expect to be regarded with distrust and suspicion, which will soon result in the shunning of his store. The dealer who intentionally makes an error of five or ten cents in his own favor in the footing of every grocery list must also expect the most careless housekeeper to grow wise in time. A word of advice to the colored storekeeper is this: "Don't expect colored people to buy of you just because of your color. You must give them what they demand, of just as good quality and as moderate prices as the other storekeepers." Your service must be as good, if not better, in order to attract and hold your trade. All storekeepers should show unfailing courtesy and patience in dealing with their customers. White storekeepers should not speak disparagingly or insulting of their colored customers, even behind their backs, as others may hear and repeat their remarks. It is well for the business man of every race to remember that a pleased customer is the best kind of advertisement. Birmingham, Ala., boasts of a laundry and dry cleaning plant owned and operated by Negroes, the machinery for which costs twenty-five thousand dollars. This is something of a step beyond the wash gah and grinding hand of the washer. VIEWS and REVIEWS By James Wolden Johnson, Contributing Editor GOVERNOR BICKETT ON THE KU KLUX KLAN. Governor Bickett of North Carolina has taken action on the Ku Klux Klan in his state which should be followed by the governor in every state in which this monster has showed its head. When Texas B. Ritchie, an organizer of the Klan from Texas, began operations in North Carolina, Governor Bickett denounced the order as not only foolish and wicked but dishonest, and took such action as caused Ritchie to abandon his efforts in the North State and seek a more inviting field. every white man freed himself by Mr. Smith's ment quoted ab his position that geant Negro but is in favor of all justifies his pos already have the to take it away white men in the way they say the for the murder burning a human In reply to the Governor's attack on the Klan, Ritchie said: "We are not endearing to incite ill feeling between the races, but I don't care about seeing my wife go to the polls to vote with a Negro woman, and I don't believe that any white man wants to see it. If the Governor does he isn't a white man." Ritchie's statement is a fair sample of "Southern logic" on the race question. In a sentence of less than fifty words he completely contradicts himself. He says that the Ku Klux Klan does not have for its purpose the inciting of ill feeling between the races, and then goes on to say that he doesn't want to see his wife go to the polls to vote with a Negro woman. One of the admitted purposes then of the Klan is to keep colored women from voting. Perhaps Ritchie doesn't think that keeping colored women from voting by intimidation and force will tend to incite ill feeling between the races; if so, Ritchie has another thought coming to him. If this purpose of the Ku Klux Klan is undertaken it will result not only in ill feeling, it will result in bloodshed, and all the blood won't be used on one side. The promoters of the Klan are indulging in a dream. They are dreaming that the sign of the skull and crossbones, a fiery cross and a white sheet thrown over the head are going to frighten Negroes as they did fifty years ago. The chief trouble with this dream is that there is an entirely different type of Negro on the field. The old ghost and graveyard stuff which worked so well a half century ago will today cause little more than laughter. We remember that the press of the country carried the news that the Klan would parade in Jacksonville on the Saturday night before the election in order to impress upon the colored people of that city how dangerous it would be for them to attempt to vote. Well, the parade came off as advertised; and that is where the terrible Ku Kluxers made their fatal mistake. If they had confined their efforts to mysterious threats they would at least have avoided making themselves openly ridiculous. Several hundred men paraded the streets with white sheets, over their heads and torches in their hands. We are informed that there were more colored people than whites out to see them. The whole affair took on the nature of an old time "false-face" parade, and the colored people appeared to have enjoyed it as such. They laughed outright at the parders, and greeted them with such remarks as, "Take that sheet off your head; we weren't afraid of German sheils." The thing became so absurd that most of the men dropped out of line and slinked away before the parade was finished. Of course, there are communities in which the Klan will not confine itself to silly parades; where it will attempt to carry out the military character of the order. Even when it does that it will, as we said above, find that it has a type of Negro to deal with quite different from the Negro of fifty years ago. Governor Bickett has done his duty well in making it impossible to organize the Ku Klux Klan in North Carolina. In doing so he not only denounced the whole business as wicked, but dishonest. The literature which was being distributed in North Carolina was the work of a blue sky artist of high attainments. He promised those who paid the initiation fee of $50 and the membership fee of $18 a year about everything he could think of. Farms; primary, graded and high schools; hospitals; sanitariums; factories; a moving picture producing concern; a large K.K.K. building; parks, and a host of other things. There was also a promise to supersede the Government of the United States, and "protect our farmer, his crops and our cotton; protect our country from lawless invasion; protect the women of our Southland; protect our Government, etc., etc." On this phase of the Ku Klux Klan plan Governor Bickett said: "The scheme is so transparently impossible, so plainly a gold brick proposition, that ordinarily the inmates of a school for the feebleminded could not be induced to part with their coin for a certificate of membership in such a soap bubble. "But running through the whole scheme is a wicked appeal to race prejudice. There is a hark back to the lawless time that followed the civil War, and there is paraded before the mind of the readers the terrors of those dark days. The very name that is written on the death head is a subtle appeal to the fears and the prejudices of our people. "Such an appeal is desperately wicked. There is no need for any secret order to enforce the laws of this land, and the appeal to race prejudice is as silly as it is sinful. Just now all of us need to be considerate and kind and trustful in our dealings with the Negro. The best and wisest men in both races are working to strengthen the ties of friendship and of peace and lay broad and deep foundations for an enduring peace and prosperity for both races. I call on all men who do not desire to throw their money away to have nothing to do with this wildest of wildcat schemes, and I call on all true patriots to frown down on any and every attempt to capitalize race prejudice into cash." This is not the first time that Governor Pickett has spoken out fearlessly on questions relating to the race question, and it is not the first time he has acted fearlessly. We hope that other Southern governors will find the courage and will have the backbone to follow his example. SENSIBLE TALK-ALMOST It is so seldom that anything intelligent on the Negro question is heard from the lips of a Southern man, that it is a magnified pleasure to quote a statement made by Mr. Bolton Smith, of Memphis, Tennessee, in an interview given out this week while he was staying at the Pennsylvania Hotel in this city. In speaking about suffrage in the South, Mr. Smith said: "I believe the intelligent Negro should vote, and that the communities in the South ought to get into sympathetic touch with Negroes of intelligence and character and find out what their troubles are and go to any amount of effort and expense to remedy any of these troubles that are real." Certainly, this is what ought to be done, and sooner or later, the white people of the South will find out that it is the only thing the colored people will allow them to do. The white people of the south will some day realize their error in thinking that the "Negro problem" is something entirely in their hands for solution and settlement, that it is wholly a question of what they will do with the Negro. They will one day wake up and see that the Negro has done more with them then they have done with him. The Negro has already done a great deal with Mr. Smith, and he comes out and talks sensibly—almost—on the Negro question. We have had occasion to comment on statements made by Mr. Smith before. We believe that he is one Southern white man who is sincerely trying to reach light on this question. The trouble with Mr. Smith is that he backs not the intelligence. But the courage to every white man in the United States is who has not completely freed himself from narrow race prejudice. Mr. Smith shows this fear in the last three words in the statement quoted above. And further on in the interview he makes plain his position that he is in favor of the vote being given to the intelligent Negro but denied to the unintelligent. At the same time he is in favor of all white men voting, intelligent and unintelligent. He justifies his position on the ground that the ignorant white men already have the ballot and it would be practically almost impossible to take it away from them. This is the kind of logic with which white men in the South salve over their consciences. In the same way they say that it is "practically impossible" to hang a white man for the murder of a Negro or to punish the members of a mob for burning a human being at the stake. Before Mr. Smith finished his interview he was running true to the best "Southern" form. He said in closing: "I am not in sympathy with the Negro leader who wants his people to have the right to buy tickets to every theatre or to stop at every hotel, but I am in favor of doing everything we can to help the Negro to establish good theatres and hotels of his own. If am sure most Negroes would rather have their own institutions than to mix with the whites. The Negro who wants to be a white man has lost the true pride in his race. It is unconscious egotism which makes Mr. Smith think that a colored man goes to a hotel or a theatre because he wants to be white. The simple truth is, he goes there because he is in search of a bed and something to eat and entertainment. And the idea of the Negro having all of his own institutions of public accommodation and entertainment entirely separate is absolutely absurd. We know a colored man who some years ago had to stop over in Salt Lake City for the night. He went from hotel to hotel, being refused at one after the other, and finally got a night's lodging in a cheap boarding house on the condition that he got out early in the morning before the boarders were up. Does Mr. Smith contend that the few hundred colored people in Salt Lake City ought to maintain a hotel for the occasional colored traveler stopping there? In the first place, it would be an impossible undertaking for the Negro to duplicate within the United States the whole machinery of civilization and culture. Take New York. There are approximately 200,000 Negroes in this city. If one of these colored citizens wants his children to enjoy the Hippodrome show, or if he wants to see a great spectacle like "Mecca", or to hear the great concert artists, or to listen to grand opera, must those 200,000 Negroes be called upon to create and maintain a Hippodrome, a Century Theatre, a Carnegie Hall and a Metropolitan Opera House? Why it takes all the combined population and wealth of New York, aided by the population and wealth of other cities, to support one Metropolitan Opera House. And no other city in the whole United States has been able to do it. According to Mr. Smith's principles, no Negro in this country would ever be able to listen to grand opera. One of the most discouraging things is that even the most intelligent Southerners, when they begin to talk on the Negro question, can utter such silly rot. ANOTHER GEORGIA LYNCHING. The press dispatches brought the news a triple lynching from Georgia, last week, one of the victims being a woman. The facts as bodily reported by the Southern press agent at Douglas, Ga., were as follows: Alex Byrd, Willie Ivory and Minnie Ivory, Negroes, charged with killing Petula McGinn from Gruntham's store in the Negro section of town here Wednesday, were taken away from the sheriff by a mob and lynched in the Dixie Highway, about seven miles from Douglas. Harper, a white man, about 25 years old, was shot by Minnie Ivory. Immediately after the shooting the woman left in a car with a Negro Nanad Will Perry. Early in the night Perry was found by the sheriff Wiggins. He told the officers he had taken the woman to Pearson, in Atkinson county. The Sheriff hurried to Pearson and arrested the woman at the station, where she had bought a ticket to Wavercross. The prisoners were taken from the custody of the sheriff while on their way to Ocella by a hob of 150 men in automobiles, who lined them up in the road and shot them to death. It is significant that the causes which led to the shooting of the white calekan are suppressed. Any one familiar with the attitude of the average Georgia white man toward colored women can supply the deficiency. FOR BETTER PREACHERS A movement to provide better education for Negro ministers in the rural districts of the South has found expression in the holding of ministers institutes in certain sections. At this centre, usually some educational institution, the preachers gather from miles around for the purpose of listening to addresses on various phases of their work and learning how to solve the problem of education for their communities. In South Carolina and Georgia special stress has been laid upon this kind of constructive work, which is going on all through the South. One thing aimed at through these institutes is to bring together those ministers who are ambitious to give their congregations a fuller measure of social and religious service. Those taking part are also impressed with the fact that they have common interests with the School teachers in furthering the cause of education. Among their people. The preachers are made to realize their present responsibility as leaders of their communities and the necessity for greater efficiency, and a broader outlook, if they are to retain that leadership. With the increased number of teachers, lawyers, doctors, business men and officers of fraternal orders, to whom the people look for guidance in every day affairs, the leadership of the minister is no longer their sole reliance. The action of the rural ministers in thus fortifying themselves against the day when their leadership shall be called into question is handicable. In fact, it is not without value for their city brethren who also have a leadership to maintain. Are the city ministers making equally as effective ministers as the rural preachers in keeping themselves posted up to date, so as to intelligently guide and order their actions? The St. Louis Clarion has made the discovery that 'the noise of loud mouths among colored people is reason that colored people are not wanted in a lot of places. It is not their color nor their hair, but their mouthings that hurts them." Moral: Speak softly, even if you do not carry a big stick. Mrs. Matilda J. Dunbar, mother of the poet Paul Lawrence Dunbar, has written a letter denying the report that she was in a destitute condition. She says that the Dunbar Memorial Association of Dayton, Ohio, has seen that her coal is provided for the winter and looks after the preservation of the poet's home and library, besides rendering her assistance. Dunbar's books still bring in considerable sums as royalties, which it is said are paid to his mother. Friends of the poet will be glad to hear this. Talking about the ideal weather the farmers had for their harvest season in South Carolina, the Rock Hill Messenger added this advice: We insist upon farmers to raise more foodstuff and give less attention to the raising of cotton. But it seems that the whole life of the farmer is now filled in cotton. It ought to be known that when cotton is raised it must be sold, no matter what the price. It is not so with corn, peas, potatoes, wheat, came and the like. And the farmer who raised sufficient of these things, need never no hungry. No matter how many lakes of cotton is made they must be sold—they can't be eaten. This argument for the diversification of crops is a good one and is, based on the good old practice of not carrying all the eggs in one basket. Commenting on election results in Missouri, the Kansas City Call says: If our men who are leaders in politics direct their energies to jobgetting, they will succeed in the main, for they ask no little, it will be easily given them. But if they choose the course of advocating rights for the race, they will not be so popular with the powers that be and may sacrifice their chances of personal advancement. So they must choose between selfish aggrandizement and race advocacy, and we the people whom they represent must weigh them according as they choose. True enough, the leader whose energy is spent in securing a soft berth for himself, cannot be expected, to accomplish much beyond that. In order to secure effective results for his constituents, a leader must not be dependent on holding an office. Refreshed spelling, like some other reforms, is a good thing applied with discussion. We believe in lopping off superliterous letters, where they do not add to the sound nor the sense of the word. DWI sometimes the reform works the effect of a blemish, as in a recent book of typographical beauty, where the types read "brown and that" to express the words brought and thought. The first had the effect of a bookbaker's abbreviation, while the second looked like a misspring for then. Parametrically they wrap media. person of J. H. Ryan, publisher of Ryan's Weekly at Seattle. Score an victory for the press. The man some on have arrived in point. An interesting item from Pete Brack published in the Red Bank Lark as follows: About fifty couples attended a dance given by C. Greene, at Nine Brook, last week. With the profits, Mr. Greene bought a horse from a Long Beach man. There is a concrete lesson in the science of economics. The promotion is frequently a profitable whether devoted to social entertainment or financial exploitation. We only surprised that the purchase was a house instead of an auto car. The following lesson is drawn from the election figures in Texas by the Dallas Epress: It should serve, however, to introduce to local political leaders the amount of education in civic responsibility which must be given our general voting rights if results potent in any degree will be obtained. There are enough Negro voters in Texas to have entered even the grand total of Democrat votes as it now stands. But these voters will not register or begin to need of becoming qualified unless an effort is expended in their direction. Participation in local campaign is enjoined as a duty and local leaders are urged to begin the work of educating with small groups. That's the way start. It is claimed that We It is claimed that W. Ashleigh Hawley of Baltimore, received 7,000 votes in the United States Senate, thus allowing the Republican candidate to run for behind the national ticket. Mr. Hawley candidacy was in the nature of opposition against the unfair and unjustly held the Republican organization in its tude toward the Negro voters, to be hoped that this moral tribute will be heeded. According to the figure According to the San Antonio Journal, Bishop Elias Cottrell of Holly Springs, Miss, leads in his church, the Colored Methodist Episcopal, as a school teacher. A few weeks ago he raised thirty nine thousand dollars at the opening of Texas College, Tyler, Tex. This is the kind of bishop needed all out the South.

White Interesting Concert Program By New Amsterdam Musicians Viewed from various angles, the appearance of the New Amsterdam Musical Association orchestra in concert rockal, with Alfred W. Rose, the talented young violinist as conductor, was an interesting question. The event occurred on Friday evening, November 19, at New Star Casino, 19th street and Lexington avenue, and it was largely attended. It was the first time during the life of this organization that it offered the musicmaking public a chance to hear its musicians in a briefly support program. It was Mr. Ross' first essay as the occupant of the conductor's desk. The program in its entirety is enjoyable and possessed some elements of novelty. From the opening number, Titl's overture, "Der Tambour der Gards," to the doing strains of a new composition, "March Success," by a young local musician, Hill John in the orchestra played with precision of attack, facile response to the compositions of Laton and an intelligent comprehension of the varying demands of the well balanced program. If there were those present who came with the hope of hearing a rendition involving symphonic orchestral standards, they were disappointed. If any such present they came without an understanding of conditions and without proper knowledge as to what to expect. There are many excellent musicians within the membership of the association, some of their artists in intelligence and ambition. But it remains as an integer that they have been and are limited in opportunity for the study and development necessary to the symphony orchestra musician. It is an economic success which compels the men to give their first attention to the purveying of the purpose of entertainment, and so they must give much time to play a popular music of the day, that which is commonly referred to in modern times. It is an reflection upon their musicically attainment to say that in this realm two are far excellent. And it is a distinct tribute to their ability to declare that given favorable circumstances they would be capable of successful effort in the attainment of classic music. Given an opportunity to dwell in that rarefied amphile for avail, with single-hearted purpose and devotion, it would not be a very great while before the necessary sacrifice would bring its reward. Here is that may be, this is not intended to be an essay on the development of the symphony orchestra. The New Amsterdam musicians' program was diversified among a varied pabulum for the delectation of the audience. The Tritil volume which opened the entertainment gave play to the versatility of the organization of heavy, massed harmonies contrasting pleasingly with light, triptychy carried by the violins and treble wood winds. numbers which followed, including the orchestral accompaniments, the violin and two vocal, the players gave an entertaining performance, and the velvety, smoothness of tone from the strings, perfection of continuity of effort on part of wood and brass which would constitute the leader. But there was faithfulness of effort coupled with comprehension of the composer's idea, and to this was added the moods and impulses of the conductor's interpretations. The numbers were a baritone, Walter Hunter, who sang Novello's "The Your Eyes," the violinist, Felix Fowler Weir, who played Kriesler's master, and Miss Mimie Brown, soprano, who sang a charming little springtime of Love," by Moskowski. Mr. Hunter offered nothing to the throaty voice, dense and cloudy in quality, lacking power of evidently poorly trained, was not equal to the occasion. Mr. Brown with power, breadth of tone and facility of technic. Would that this ensemble revote his entire time and talent to the development of a notable music. Miss Brown was in splendid voice and her selection happy. The song suited both her voice and the occasion and impelled her in repeat the final browra passages. He is conducted with grace and authority. He is taking a place de- corated as a musician of parts, versatile and accomplished. I have re- cited in violin recital, when he gave a really fine performance. Later I recited in the piano when Miss Brown sang at the Fisk University benefit and gave sympathetic and efficient support to the singer. And I recited here as an orchestral conductor, his work being distinctive and show- ing in intelligent study and application.

A Spectacular Letter in New York On the 10th of June on Friday, Mid-Hour, Mr. Hir is a visiting to the City and plains, a prominent Counsellor. He is a patient with his difficulty with his impatience and he is even as a patient. He has consulted on a Therapeutic System and in such a number of cases and plans substitution to have a long wait for Counsellor and light talk on a subject is developed by the latter as the main subject in these. Hir is in person with counsel New York producers for a presentation of this work. Mr. Eike appeared in the small gallery chamber at Amsterdam Hall especially and charmed a stent but operative curator. It is quite possible that he will give New Yorkers a large opportunity to become familiar with his work. He was at the principal medical and pumpee of the New Amsterdam Association, the guest of Mrs. Tapley, Mrs. Brown and Mr. Rose, and was very much interested in his first hearing of American Jews as it was played for cheating by the commissioner. The novel and current pornographic novel, "Jazz" was very the source of cocking inter-act to Mr. Eike, and he quickly recognized that the jazz effect was obtained by the individual instrumentist and depended entirely upon the player's mood. He realized, as he is reminded to me, that "it cannot be written." Mr. Eike plans to remain in New York for a considerable period A compliment as pleasing as it was deserved was paid to Lieutenant Frederick W Simpson and his Fifteenth Regiment, band and field music as a consequence of their performance on the occasion of the parade of the Provisional Regiment of Infantry, New York Guard, up 5th avenue on Sunday, November I, and the subsequent review by Major General Sumner and Major General O'Kelly of the 1st Battalion. Major Allen L. Reagan, commanding the Provisional Regiment, wrote, under date of Monday, November 15th, to Lieutenant Simpson as follows: "My dear Lieutenant "I want to say to you without delay, that I was more than pleased, with the appearance and playing of the band and field music at yesterday's formation. The appearance of the men was solidly and their playing was superb. I am sure I never heard finer music than you gave going up the avenue. "Please publish this appreciation to the men at the next formation. "While on the subject, I wish to say to you personally, that the choice of music made by you, is in every way, excellent." It is a matter of record that the band of the 15th Regiment was selected over the bands of all the New York City regiments for service in connection with the Provisional Regiment, which is wholly up at pickled using from the various State Guard regiments, and the 15th band accompanied the Provisional Regiment to the embampment held during the summer at Pochbill. The selection was made after competitive trial. 'On Friday, November 12, a very unusual and interesting program was given in Carnegie Chamber Hall by Monsieur Justin Elie, a Hayton pianist and composer. Mr. Ellie is a graduate of the Paris Conservatoire and brings with him an abundance of technique and temperament. The program was opened with Liszt's 'Fantastic Hongroise' for two pianos, an arrangement admirably adapted for the display of the possibility of the artist at the first piano. Joseph Adieu was at the second piano. Netsx came a Chopin group, an Etude, Nocturne and the brilliant A flat Polonaise. La Campanella, by Pagani Liszt followed this group. The greatest interest centered in the other numbers, all of which were arranged from themes collected by Mr. Elie from the native music of Haiti. The first of these," Bachanale sur 2 Themes Populaires," for two pianos was perhaps the least interesting, lacking the charm that some of the others possess. Two "Danses Tropicales" a "Value of Concert," two "Invocations," a "Dame Populaire Hatienne" a "Anhydrite" and a "Danse Characteristique" all arranged by Mr. Elie, completed the program. The Haitian native music possesses; a delightful rhythmic charm and sparkle, somewhat unusual to many in this country as much of it is written in 5-8 time. The following is the instrumentation and personnel of the New Amsterdam Musical Association's orchestra which played in the concert recital with Alfred W. Ross conducting: VINNIS—Bowman, Carlie, Cooper, G. Creagh, Harding, Harris, Hermande, Haywood, McKenzie, Marshall, Parker, Trimmingham, Martin, J.

This he does not seem able to do. From accounts received, it is alleged that Ricks played with the Dumhars of Orange, New Jersey, on election night, November 2nd, when that team defeated the Baronet Bees, few nights later Ricks is accused of all-Stars. Ricks capped the climax when he showed up at Saengerbund Hall, Brooklyn, on November 12th, as a member of the Imperials of Q'range, N. J., to play against the Baronet Bees. Rick Plava or No Game Though he had helped the Dunhams defeat the Baronet Bees less than two weeks previously, Ricks was there in an Imperial uniform on November 12th to try and help this out do the same thing which he had helped the Dunhams to do. The Baromet Bees kicked, of course, yet had to go through with the deal because the Jersey people had brought along no substitutes. The Imperial manager had five players, including Ricks. It was plainly a case of Ricks playing on Ricks played. This was on Friday night, November 12th.

Moodz) Lynchburg, Va.—A large and enthusiastic spectators saw St. Augustine, of Raleigh, N. C., go down to defeat at the hands of the fast traveling Seminary eleven. The game was staged on a wet field and under threatening skies. Carolina had invaded Virginia territory with superb confidence in their ability to win, but the unfaltering and determined offensive launched against them propped effective from the outset, and Virginia had scored a touchdown nine minutes after receiving the initial kick-off. "St. Anne" elicited to receive the next kickoff; they were unable to gain, and were forced to punt out of danger. Again this steady ground gathering of the Seminary backs proved bewildering to the tarmell Boys, and another touchdown was showed over the early in the second master.

The last period began with "St. Augustine in possession of the 10 yard line; here a 25 yard penalty placed the ball in easy striking distance of the Blue and White goal line, and Holland carried it over for "St. Aug. on the fourth down. Lander kicked goal. On the next kick-off, the most sensational run of the game was made when Hyatt delivered the ball on Seminary's 15 yard line and a play of broken field running was not adjusted until a gain of 55 yards was made. This brought forth a rage of applause from the spectators. The seminary students called for a touchdown, but after again getting within ten yards of the much coveted goal, time ended, and with it concluded one of the prettiest games of the season.

TITLE GUARANTEED AND INSURED BY LEADING TITLE COMPANY The St. Mary's Bears proved two strong for the 18th season. "Y" heavyweight came last Saturday night, when these two quinquefinals must for the first time on the home court of the Y. M. C. A. in West 18th street. This game marked the initial appearance of Mount, the Bears' big counter, against the "Y" team, with which he starred last season. Both sides showed nervousness at the start of the game, each being eager to register the first point. This hammer fell on the "Y" Christians, when Pollard eagged a free throw after a foul had been called on a St. Mark's player. Another goal was seen eagled by Pollard and the "Christians" were leading the Bears by regaining Levi Fisk, playing on the bench. Pollard was forced by caring a long goal from the field. The game then north to the end of the first half was a slip and touch effort, with neither side able to gain any decided advantage over the other. The St. Mark's team was plainly showing a better brand of ball than the "Y". It had could gain no big head, owing to the many faults committed by Bill Mitchell's ally. Pullhard of the Christian team had proven himself a player of more than ordinary ability by his fine work and fault shunning when the first half ended with St. Mark's 19 and "Y" 19. During the rest period between the first and second halves the Bears acquainted themselves with the Y. M. C. A. basket. Gale were eagled from all parts of the court by the St. Mark's clan, in preparation for the other half of their tilt. A resumption of play and the Bears began to run away with the "Y" team. Lester Fial and Mont. of the leading team, vied with each other to see who could score more for St. Mark's. Even the two guards, Williams and Cap.

THE STAGE AND ATHLETICS Thanksgiving Week Bill Pleases Large Audiences at Lafayette "Justice" to Be Presented at Lafayette With Mixed Cast THE Lafayette Theatre management has furnished its patrons with an unusually entertaining program this week, consisting of vaudeville specialties and pictures. Hundreds are turning out to see Manic Smith and her Jazz Hounds, and Miss Smith is rendering her numbers in her own original style. Her jazz pounds are the last word in jazz, and give her material assistance. There is no question that this young woman is a strong magnet at this time, for the public conclusively shows that it is very desirous of seeing one of the country's most popular singers for phonograph records. Miss Smith dresses her act well, and she looks attractive in her clothes. Interest is also centered this week in Mrs. Edna Lewis Thomas, who is well-known socially in New York, and now a member of the Lafayette Players. She makes a decidedly favorable impression. There is no doubt that she is going to attract considerable attention in the realm of the footlights in the "Justice," the great Negro drama which played for four months at the Bramhall Play House and created a sensation because of its bold racial theme, will be the attraction at the Lafayette Theatre for one week only, commencing Monday, Novem- Author and chief actor in Race Play. "Justice" at Lafayette Theater, beginning November 29. her 29. The engagement of this play in the Lafayette Theatre will be unique in many ways. Not only is it the strongest race drama that has been produced in favor of the Negroes rights as a man and citizen, but it will be presented by a cast of colored and white actors. ROSE M. CLENDON One of the Principal Characters in the Roll Play. In the. There are twenty-six members in the cast. Notable among the artists appearing in "Justice" will be Butler Davenport himself, who wrote and staged the piece. F. H. Wilson, the young colored playwright, who is furnishing the Quality Announcement Corporation with Negro playlets, also will be seen. The cast will include Helen Link, Rose McClendon, Vina Elvyn, Amie Francis, Jeannette Porter, Dorsha, Mildred Maloney, Robert Babcock, Paul Hayes, Francis Wilson, Eged J. Bue c, James Bell, Webster Elkins. "Justice" is in three acts and two scenes, and is laid in Atlanta, Georgia. The curtain raiser will be "The Father's Sons." Many white people interested in the Negro have announced intentions of attending a performance of "Justice" during its week's engagement at the Lafayette Theatre. MAMIE SMITH TO BE AT PUTNAM NEXT WEEK Mamie Smith and her Jazz Ensemble will be the principal attraction at the Putnam Theatre, Brooklyn, next week, commencing Monday, November 29, and it is predicted that she will break all the records across the bridge, the audience has done at the Lafayette, New York, and Dumbo, Philadelphia. In addition to Miss Smith and her many bunch, the bill will be featured by Branton and Hawkins, and other future. At Monday's performance Mrs. Thomas was the recipient from admirers of a great many beautiful floral remembrances. "Confidence" is a race play written by F. H. Wilson, and is ably presented by Mrs. Thomas, Lionel Monagas and Harrison Jackson. "Fifty Years From Now," a farce, played by Miss Susie Sutton, Lawrence Chenault and James H. Norman, is another sketch acted by the Lafayette Players, which comes in for no little commendation. Several real, hearty laughs are afforded by this trio. Braxton. and Hawkins are two young men who sing, talk and dance entertainingly, and their work gives pep to the bill. Williamus and Richardson, in comedy and song, and the Spider's Web, an acrobatic novelty, are among the other acts to make the bill talked about and enjoyed.

STEWART WEARING SPARTAN UNIFORM Douglas Places Promising Youngster in Captain Capers' Hands The Spartan management has shown a deal of foresightedness in signing up "Smutt" Stewart, the coming young basket ball player, who played so brilliantly for them in the game against the Philadelphia "Y" on Election night. "Smutt" is one of the most promising young boys in basket ball today. He has many natural qualities which should help him on toward stardom. Aside from a powerful physique, Stewart has a wonderful eye on the basket and a genuine liking for the game. If there's anything this boy would like better than playing a game of basket ball every day it would be two games a day. Bob Douglas has placed Stewart in the hands of Capt. Capers of the Spartan squad. Capers, it will be remembered, is largely responsible for the success of Slocum, who is now called the Wonder Man of basket ball. Under such skillful hardling, "Smutt" Stewart should soon be heard from.

ENTS SMITH JAZZ HOUNDS d Breaking Engagements THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1930 I wish to advise my many friends that I have tendered my resignation to the St. Christopher Club to take effect November 30th, 1920, due to uncongenial surroundings. I am making application to the Spartan Field Club for membership and if accepted will appear with that club in the future. (Signed) The above notice was handed into this office early this week by Georgie Fial and caused almost as much excitement among The Age Sporting staff as it will probably cause among the general public. One of our representatives was immediately dispatched in search of the famous basketball player to get a detailed account for our readers. Georgie was finally located in a stone's throw of his former club and unhesitatingly admitted the truth of this notice. Fial did not speak of his resignation in a braggadocio manner, however. In fact, his manner somehow denoted sorrow and our representative pressed him for the full story of his leaving the Parish House. Fial's story. "In the first place, let me tell you, the St. Christopher Club is all right. I have no grievance whatever against the club or any of its officers. Were I to get out of active competition in athletics, there is no club with which I prefer holding membership to old St. C. "I like playing basketball, however, and intend putting quite some more years in at this sport. For the past few years, I have not shared the good will of of members of St. C.'s heavyweight team, on which I played. This fact has been known to several of the officers and members of the club and by Rev. Daniels, the club director. Before leaving I talked the matter over with Rev. Daniels and coach Charlie Bradford. Both expressed regret at my decision but wished me the best of luck." LAFAYETTE THEATRE A Negro Drama of Race, Love and Law In 3 Acts Don't fail to see "JUSTICE" which seeks to eradicate race and color prejudice The Age representative then got in touch with the St. Christopher Club, but could learn nothing definite on that organization's attitude toward Fial's resignation. When the Spartan Field Club was visited by our representative, every member ceased what he was doing at the mere mentioning of Fial's name by the reporter. Some were shooting pool, others were writing or playing checkers, and still some others were idly lounging around in a state of relaxation after their day's work. But everything came to attention when the club's latest prospective member's name was mentioned. All were plainly jubilant at the prospect of acquiring such a valuable addition to the club's basket ball team as Fial will surely make if accepted into their fold. Douglas Troubled. Bob Douglas, manager of the Spartan team, seemed less enthused than any other man in the house. In fact, Bob seemed puzzled over Fial's appli- St. C.

"I wish the public to understand that, personally, I am opposed to the acceptance of George Fial into the Spartan Field Club. And I have two good reasons for my objections. The first and most paramount it, I don't want to have any ill feeling between my club and the St. Christopher people: There will very likely be some ill feeling if we accept him even though any other club could do so and not have one word said. My second reason for objecting is I am afraid that the addition of Fial to my squad of players may disturb the harmony which I have maintained between the players. Without the services of Fial I think I have a combination which will beat any in the world. Therefore I doubt if the strength gained by the addition of this star forward to our ranks will overbalance the danger of spoiling the TTE THE st Street Telephone Mor YETTI enue & 131st Street LESTER A. WALTON, MANAGER ING MON. NO N. NOV. 29---Matin ONE WEEK ONLY cation to his club. By JOHN BRUNSON. The first big handicap run of the road racing season was held last Sunday afternoon under the auspices of the Yorkville Catholic Club, located in East 57th street. A field of 180 sturdy young hill-and-dalers answered the call to their marks and only five failed to cover the course of about five miles through Yorkville, Central Park and Fifth avenue. S. Weiss of the Mohawk Athletic Club turned up the winner. He was clocked in 29.12 from the 3:45 mark. Williams Wins Fast Time Prize. George Williams of St. Christopher, who finished fourth in the junior national chase the week before, was allotted a 30-second start, but when this handicap and started from scratch with Frank Titterton and J. Moffess of the Mohawk A. C. That he did not overrate his ability was clear evidence in the first two miles, at which point Williams had left the opponents 100 yards behind and was rapidly overhauling the field. St. C. runner judged his pace nicely and on the return stretch up Fifth avenue and through 57th street opened up at a chip that brought him near in 48th position. Williams was tuned in 28.10, which was the fastest performance by seconds of any other athlete in the race. He was awarded the beautiful silver trophy offered the fastest runner. The St. Christopher team, composed of R. McDougall, Gro. William John Goff, William Stokeley, Aaron-Morris, J. Thompson and Frank Marris, finished men in 13th, 34th, 39th, 45th and 49th positions, for a score of 130 points and eighth place. On their showing in the recent junior national run the St. Carson were not handicapped too generously, which precluded their chance to the team prize in such a large field of runners. "However, you see the feeling of the members," said Douglass, pointing to the group which was still talking of their new prospective member. "At our meeting Wednesday evening no three members will vote against the acceptance of Fial's application. In fact, I suppose mine will be the only dissenting vote." When asked if he would let Fial play on the Spartan team this season, Douglass replied: "I'll accepted in our club. Fial will enjoy every right extended to any other member. He will be tried out and used on the team if he can make it." ON THE CENTER PATH By "JOHN." The indoor season was inaugurated last Saturday evening with the holding of the Royal Arcanum games in the 13th Regt. armory. This Saturday the board floor rummers will hold away at the games of the 23rd Regt. A. A. at their armory, Bedford and Atlantic avenue, Brooklyn. The first indoor title, the Metropolitan 300-yard championship, will be awarded at this meet and several flyers from the colored clubs will be on hand in quest of the gold medal.

C. an organization of girls in New York with a National scholarship, has accomplished what so others might seem wonders in the short time it has been in existence. In September of last year, christian girls sit at the residence of Miss Searce Behagen in Harlem and decided to form a club. They were the Minnesota Ella Gordon, Iris Watson, Helen Whitney, Milford and Mabel Cornellum, Alice Jarvis, Lizzie Richardson, Evelyn Whitbull, Daisy Smith, Bantrelck Jacobs, Agnes and Helena Ellison, Agatha Blasog and Miss Jacques. They selected "Blue Belt Athletic Club" as the name for their organization and each member furnished herself with a basketball ball uniform agreed on by club champs. After being duly enchanced, the Blue Belt's made their initial appearance in a few months after they were organized in a real game at Manhattan Casino. The girls showed themselves to be game with their initial appearances for they booked the strong Joan of Arc team, captained by Miss Pay Jordan, and called Manhattan's champs. The Joan's outstored the Blue Belt, but the after a good account of themselves and succeeded in winning many other games during the season. During the summer months the Blue Belt girls took up tennis and swimming so can cure promise of developing into capable artists at these two bankhalf sports. Now that winter is here again these girls attention again shifted to basketball. They have been ably coached by the well known reference, Chris Huiswood, since the beginning of the season. We learn from Huiswood that the team has improved fully a hundred percent over last year. Huiswood is busy arranging a busy schedule for the Blue Belt Girls and promises to let them be seen in action at Manhattan Casino, against some good team early in December.

ST. MARK'S FLASHES BEAT BOROUGH "BUDS" In a preliminary game to the Borough A. C.-Dunbar attraction last week, Hill Mitchell's St. Mark's Flashes ran over the Borough A. C.-Lightweights. Starting with a hasp of Yates and Specks, forward, Nethrop at center and Dunbar and Friedman, guards, the Flashes totally outside their Brooklyn comments. At no range of the game did the Brooklyn team seem dangerous. Their trouble this year is just what held them back last year, and that is poor aim on the basket. Shorty Carrol, whose stellar floor work stamps him as one of the best men on the Borough A. C. lightweights, still harbors the idea that he can shoot. And what made matters worse the four other players on the Brooklyn team encouraged Carrol in his belief by continually feeding the ball to him throughout the two periods. Fully twenty points were thrown away by Carrol in his many easy chances from the field and the unusual number of free throws which he missed from the foul line. Specks of St. Marks was the bright particular star of the game, which ended 34-23 in favor of the Flasheen. Jean Brown played best for the Borough A. C. but Brown's good playing grasp offset by the tactics of his team mate, Evans. The latter seemed dared and unable to let go of the ball. THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1920 JUST LIKE WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO. The Blue Belt A. C. girl team is called the most active girl team in the state. The Blue Belt girls are out for the Eastern Championship. They are to be seen in action early in December against the fastest girl opponents to be found. To Benny Pouteau will go the credit of breaking the unwritten law which the boxing commission has held over colored boxers' heads since the passage of the Walker Law. Nowhere in the law named after State Senator Walker, is any ban put on the meeting of black and white men to match boxing skill in local rings, yet no club has dared set the precedent. Even the Commonwealth Sporting Club, which is located right in 135th street, claimed to have been advised against having a white man meet a Negro. Now comes a notice that the Amateur MAKING HISTORY.

Ponteau will be the first colored boxer to oppose a white pugilist in this city since the new Walker Boxing Law was enacted. Athletic Union is to hold its championships matches in Madison Square Garden this season. Two days are being taken to run off the A. A.U. Championship show. They are November 20th and 30th. Benny Pontes, of the S. Christopher A. C. and Wilbur C. Cornell of the same club, are to take part in the championship bouts next week. Pontes will box in the light weight division and is expected to give a good account of himself. The matching of C. Cornell and Pontes against white up or down in the amateur contests next week will be to act for or against the C. Cornell silence on Negro boxers, as well as in the professional ring. TYGARS TEAM OPENS SEASON IN YONKERS The Youker family pleased their many friends in recent events of that section of New York last Saturday night, when they met and defeated U. and I.A.C.O. last month by the soce of 44-6. The largest which was on hand gave Manager Jackson of the Tygars good reason to believe that his team is to be strongly supported this season. From the very start of last Saturday evening's game, it was plainly evident that the Tygars, quashed their opponents. The game shortly after its beginning, because of a mere practice affair for Thomas, Brown and Bowyer of the Tygar team, Buck Taylor of the Tarrytown five did some clever all around but the team work of the Tygars was too much for any man to overcome. Mr. Jackson, who manages the Yonkers Tygars, has a few open dates which he will give to desirable clubs. LOENDI CLUB WINS Pittsburgh, Pa.—The Loendi basketball squad of Pittsburgh celebrated its opening game with a victory over the Pennsylvania Collegians last Thursday night at Union Temple. The largest crowd ever seen at an opening game in this Smoky Town was on hand to greet the Pittsburgh favorites. Loendi began the game with Edwards, formerly of Hampton Institute, and Pappy Ricks, of New Jersey as forwards. Sessums at center, and Posey and Young guards. The Loendi quintet proved so strong that wholesale substituting was practiced by them in the second half. Frank Johnson, Dial, both of whom were at one time connected with the Scholastics, Peter Johnson, Betts and Hogan shared in amassing points in the game. "Cum" Posey was the big point scorer for Loendi. On Thanksgiving night, the Loendi five will tackle a team known as the Second Story Mary's. The St. Christopher cross-country team cast up the senior run in favor of the Yorkville chase at home. CHO MUSICIANS, (N. Y. LOCAL) Benefit Recital St. Philly's Church Street, New York October 23, 1920, at 8 P.M. ST. MARKS BEARS HAND BARONET BEARS DEFEAT Game Marked by Unusual Roughness, Due to Poor Refereeing Billy Mitchell's St. Mark's Bears checked to another game to their credit Tuesday night after they had defeated Louis Mackey's opponent-Bets of Brooklyn. These two teams battled on that night in St. Marks' Hall and the Bears came out the winning side with 40 points to the Bees' 21. We say they battled and that is just what we mean. With hats and feet the players on either side slugged and kicked one-another, while the referee looked on and apparently could not see for looking. The hall was one resounding din of noise during the whole time the teams were on the floor. Several times Monde threatened to take Baronet Bees off the floor due to the rough and unfair tactics he saw St. Markk's player's employ and a few of these times, the Brooklyn captain would have been justified. There were also times when the St. Marks team would have been justified in doing the same thing. GANT No REFRAZE We never have thought much of Joe Gant as a referee, though we have seen him in a number of games. His exhibition last Tuesday night was the worst demonstration we have ever seen him put forth. In fact, we believe the game was the toughest we have ever seen played before the public. The records show that Gant called but ten fouls during the entire game and only one of these was a personal. We are at a loss to understand why the St. Mark's Club should have selected Gant over Chris Huiswoud, who was in the house at the time. If it was for the purpose of giving Gant practice, St. Marks' Club deserves to be commended for attempting a worthy charity but we have always believed the odds against Gant's ever becoming a capable referee. In the first place Joe is altogether too nervous. THE GAME Twenty minutes of slugging, trampling and butting, ten minutes of gest and then twenty more minutes of more serious tattling than what had taken place in the first rounds and the game was over. St. Mark Bears, managed to pile up during that time, 40 points, while the Baronets got 21.

The Brooklyn investment hall was crowded to the doops when the two teams made their appearance on the floor. A generous ringing of cows bells and tapping of horns greeted each team as it made its way through the crowd to the court. TEACHING OF MUSIC LUNET. F. HENRY MURPHILL. Professor of Music, 184. M. B.

On this day, similarly to the days which had gone before on which the big Green team met other opponents, Sheburtner, the only Negro in the outfit, shared the highest honors with Robertson, the white boy who captain's the squad. Sheehanne's opportunity last Saturday came in the very first quarter and he went over the Brown University line for a touch-down thereby scoring Dartmouth's first 6 points. TEAM GOES WEST Immediately after its victory over Brown, Dartmouth's football squad entrained a cross continental trip to Seattle, Wash., where it meets the Borough Uses White Referees Contrary to all prediction, the Borough A. C. had employed a white man, J. J. Schneider, to officiate in the big games of the evening. This great lost no time in getting these teams started on their way when everything was in readiness. Schneider handled the game in a very creditable manner. The first half had not progressed many minutes before the Brooklyn team's close began to stand out, despite the New Jersey boys' best efforts to hold fast. Brown, last year's captain of the Borough team, and Freddie Scott were guarding so closely that Dunbar was allowed but two goals from the field during the first twenty minutes of play. Conte, forward on the Jersey team, accounted for three free throws from the foul line and this sent the Dunbar total to seven points. Meanwhile, Morse, Payton and Brown had registered 18 points for the Borough A. C. When the game was resumed the Jersey champions seemed to stand still. Without the aid of Marsh, their star center, who had been removed for committing four personal fouls; Dunbar's team work caused and their efforts became one wild scramble. The Borough A. C. team took advantage of this and scored at will over their struggling opponents. Accol, who captains the Brooklyn squad this season, registered several goals from what seemed impossible angles. Moss ran riot and Payton could not be stopped. Scott came all the way down the field and caged a couple. The Jersey team was plainly bewildered and was plainly ashamed of their sorry exhibition. The final score was Borough A. C., 43; Dunbar, 16. Subs; For Borough A. C.—Williams Jackson, Evans, Jean Brown; for Dum- bar—Frazier, Woods. team representing the University Washington, on November 27. In no without saying that Dartmouth's New star is expected to do much in outwrit the Westerners for his school. She burne is now playing his last year football for Dartmouth, and playing he never played before. The part plays in the game Saturday will watched by Negroes throughout country. ```markdown ``` JOHN SHELLBURNE, Dartmouth's star fullback, is making one of the longest tripe ever made by a football player with his team.
