The usher, to whom the tickets were presented, objected to giving Mr. Townsend the seats called for and attempted to exchange them at the box office. But when the usher laid the tickets down Mr. Townsend quickly picked them up and demanded that he be escorted to his seats. This the usher refused to do and so Mr. Townsend and party found their own seats and occupied them.
House attaches them came and told Mr. Townsend that he could not occupy the seats, but the colored man very quietly told them that he did not wish to be disturbed, that he was occupying the seats, intended to remain their and enjoy the performance.
In the face of his determined attitude the theatre employees went away and let him alone.

JOHNSON TO ADDRESS FREE NATIONS ASSN.
The League of Free Nations Association announce that on December 4th at the Hotel Commodore, New York City, at that body's next luncheon, the subject for discussion will be the Caribbean situation, referring especially to Haiti, and that the speakers will be James Weldon Johnson, contributing editor of The New York Art and secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., and Judge Otto Schenorrich. An invitation has also been extended to Franklin D. Roosevelt, formerly Assistant Secretary of the Navy, and the late Democratic candidate for Vice-President of the United States, to reply to criticism of the Administration. Interest in the Haitian situation increases in intensity and the affairs of the little Negro Republic are being considered by the people of this country as never before. One of the principal agents in the stirring of the minds of the people in this matter was a series of articles written by James Weldon Johnson after a personal visit to Haiti. The articles, under the general heading "Self-Determining Haiti," were published in The Nation, a weekly published in New York City, and Titre Age.
The article, embodying the results of Mr. Johnson's personal investigations, were so searching and illuminating that the Secretary of State Bainbridge Colly was constrained to reply to certain allegations contained therein. Franklin D. Roosevelt also dealt with the Holocaust during the national commemoration.
Notable Gathering of Business and Professional Men and Women From All Sections of Country for Celebration
Main Building Opened Two Years Ago Addition Contains 20,000 Sq.Ft.and Cost With Equipment,More Than $150,000
St. Louis, Mo.—The remarkable growth of Poro College in twenty years, also its relative growth within the past two years, was graphically and interestingly told both in words and by ocular proof the last four days of Thanksgiving Week, when appropriate exercises were held to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of the college and the opening of the Poro Annex.
Just two years after the dedication of Poro College, which was an historic event in the realm of Negro business the attention of the public has been directed to the rapid strives the Malone have made in business by the addition of a new building, erected and equipped at a cost of $150,000.
The Poro Annex.
The Poro Annex contains 30,000 square feet of floor space, thus enabling the college to utilize five acres, or 20,000 square feet, for the promotion of business activities. The main building to Poro College and 1 Equipment Cost $350,000. So the value of this outstanding racial enterprise is now put at a half million dollars.
The Poro Amnesia, like the mother plant, is mainly of the copper-proof materials, and is convertible connected with tungsten and niages. The most modern equipment available has been installed. There are mechanical carriers that bring Poro products from the laboratories to the shipping tables; labor-saving office appliances and up-to-date machinery in evidence on every hand. Mrs. Amnie M. Malone's chemical laboratory; a bakery which supplies the institution's restaurant and cater, capile of turning out four hundred leaves of bread daily; a laundry, a manufacturing department and a refrigerating plant; are some of the features of the Poro Amnesia.
Celebration National in Character.
The celebration and dedication exercises were national in character, and while the citizens of St Louis turned out in large numbers, mightily to patrol the citrate to the constructive work, the Malenes are doing well known men and women from all sections of the country were present.
The love and esteem in which the Malenes are held by their agents were attested by the presence of Poro representatives, from the East, South and West. During the exercises they took pleasure in voluntarily telling the large

Story of Poro Progria
The story of the familial beginning of Poro College last year, as in what was then known, Brooklyn, N. L., Negrie town, and its gradual development to the largest group of its kind anywhere, and one of the big business enterprises of the Mississippi Valley, rival fictional for its towns, with early drayles, diaport appointments, the realization of cherished ambitions, and romance.
Some who knew Mrs. Malone imbibed twenty years ago took great pleasure in verbally picturing Poro College and its founder in 1830 and then pointing out the wonderful strides the two had made. Quite a contrast between 1900 and 1920.
There was one subject on which there was a mannity of opinion: That although many favorable changes have taken place since twenty years ago, Mrs. Malone is the same modest, retiring woman.
Only those familiar with that section of St. Louis known as "Ellardsville" before the advent of Poro College can fully appreciate the physical changes brought. From a neighborhood made up of unpretentious franks and brick contours the corner of St. Ferfount and Pendition avenues has become one of the show places of the Minneapolis And, accruing to the Malone

STRAIGHTEN YOUR HAIR
---
Not with hot lones. But do it with (Kink-no-moo) the greatest hair straightening preparation on earth. Kink-no-moo was very good to the kinkiest king of the world. Think about it—if you want to do it to apply it on the hair and with a little coming in the hair becomes straight, not to stay too fast. I am not in the room with the light months. Water nor anything else will make it sink again after it has been straightened. Kink-no-moo is a wonder that you can hardly believe their own eyes. It works like Kink magic and is unique because there is not another preparation in the world like it, offer that kind of life. It is very hard to write that Kink-no-moo is will not straighten. It is perfectly harsh and will not include the same kind of life. It is not in the same way as a laxurant growth (from falling, etc.) positively removed (and drift), promoted a keep it soft and glosely. Remember, Kink-no-moo is both a good one to do all that is claimed for it or money refunded. I will send to any one on receipt of $1.90 a regular size box of Kink-no-moo, both with straighten from $1.90 to $2.00 because of half. When ordering and registered letter, postal money order or ex-great money order, Liberal inducements offer to agree with the same order.

WHY LIBERIA HESITATES.
Over two years ago it was announced that the United States had authorized a bill to the Republic of Liberia, as a way of protecting the recent war against the million defiant Liberians. Notwithstanding the pace that this amount stands to the crisis of the Liberian government, it was decided that the financial support for the proposed loan to that the Liberian Government had not accepted the conditions imposed by the American Government. The chief of their office, to be that a financial officer appointed by the United States, should have a vote in deciding the use of the funds.

Let us see what an American financial adviser has done for the friendly and unsuspecting Republic of Haiti. John A. McLennan, a Louisiana Democrat, who as president of the National Civil Service Compensation made things as easy as possible for white Southerners, and as hard as possible for applicants whose photographs showed their color, was appointed to supervise the financial affairs of Haiti. President Darriguez in a statement transmitted to this country by the Associated press, referred to this effort upon him by the Washing-town, in the following

A MATTER OF STATE POLICY
One of the weaknesses of the administration of government for New York State has been the failure of the various State officials, whether they happened to be Republicans or Democrats to give proper representation in their appointments to the Negro voters of the State. Little or no consideration to this matter has been given by past administrations and the representation accorded the Negro voters in State affairs has been so weak, as to almost justify the cry of taxation without representation.
With the coming into power of a new State administration next year, there will be an opportunity to bring about a new departure in the matter of giving proper recognition to this element of the Republican voting strength. The leaders of both races should cooperate in strengthening the vote by according suitable recognition to the various groups that go to compend. to be Republicans of Democrats, is an essential feature of popular government and the organization must be maintained as a adhesive force by the welding together of the many elements that go to make up its voting strength.
Continued denial or neglect of proper recognition to any particular group will prove a cause of discord in the harmony of the party, which will be apt to be reflected in the falling off of the vote. Just recognition and a square deal in official appointments are as essential to party concord and successful administration, as any other detail of governmental policy.
The incoming state administration should avoid the mistakes of the past by giving proper attention to these details of party policy. Votes are made and lost by the manner in which these questions are handled. A proper recognition of the various elements of party strength in the filling of the offices, with due regard to character and capability, would be just as well as politic.
DIRTY POLITICS.
Somewhat on a par with the literature issued by the Democratic State Committee of Ohio, in seeking to arouse racial prejudice in the recent election, was a more insidious device employed by New Jersey Democrats to try to bring about the defeat of Dr. Walter G. Alexander, who was on the ticket for Assembly. This device took the turn of a post card which was sent to Dr. 100,000 white voters, in order to influence them to vote against Dr. Alexander.
It was made to appear that the card was paid for by the "African American League of Essex County", an organization that has no existence in fact. The wording was artfully contrived so as to appear to be an appeal to colored voters to insure the election of a colored man, and the card was sent to the white voters to the national antagonism. In fact, by the hard headed and sensible voters of New Jersey were not to be blamed in this way. They voted for Dr. Alexander because the desire of the county and district long, the most member of race to comply a warrant in the legislature of New Jersey.
How the leading Republicans of the county regarded the matter was shown by the comment of the president of the Republican League at a testimonial dinner given by the vactors, where Dr. Alexander was well up on the list of those highly toasted Mr. Vanderbilt said.
"I think one of the most despicable bits of politics occurred when certain people. Democrats suspected, sent out very disagreeable postal cards directed against Dr. Alexander. I understand the prosecutor's office has taken it up and it will be handled in a stringent way.
The moral is that dirty politics does not always pay, and that it is harder to fool the voters than it used to be.
BIG CHURCHES AND LITTLE MISSIONS.
After a survey of the religious situation among the race in New York City, one of the convictions brought home to the unprejudiced observer is the crying need for larger churches and power little missions. The reason for this regulation is the fact that the religious needs of the urban community just but be served through the larger institutions, with its improved facilities, involving the mental and physical requirements of its membership.
While the little mission may come into three personal contact with the individual inmate, unless it is conducted under the direction of qualified leadership it is prone to involve a deplorable waste of money and energy. Under the present system, or gather lack of system, in encouraging the multiplication of independent missions, without any responsible supervision, opportunity is afforded for unworthy men to practice methods of graft upon the public group of worthippers, in a state of religious ignorance. This kind of institution is a drawback to the development of true religion. It is maintained too frequently as a source of private graft to the self-styled "Reverend" at the head of it and a stumbling block to his delinquent group of follower.
With the development of a greater degree of education among the people of large, it will be more difficult to find them in the matter of religion. The church must bring to it and the highest degree of education and culture in order to meet the requirements of the people. The larger the church, the better the institutional equipment it can provide to meet the demands for mental, moral and physical improvement. The movement to provide larger and better equipped churches should be encouraged and the smaller missions should be kept under vigilance and effective supervision.
THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1920
THE KU KLUX KLAN IN NEW YORK
We expressed an opinion about the Ku Klux Klan last week. A few days later there appeared a communication from the Imperial Wizard of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan which was published in several of the New York newspapers. The Imperial Wizard in this communication gave out what he claimed to be the purposes of the order. Among other things he said:
"The prime purpose of the organization is to develop Christian character, practice an honorable clamishness, protect the home and the chastity of womanhood and to teach, incubate and exemplify an unselfish patriotism toward our glorious country, and to preserve and to proclaim the original and fundamental American ideals and institutions and to strengthen the power and prestige of the agencies of justice and order by inducing men properly to respect the majesty of the law. To maintain the peace and security of the people, even in the absence or inadequacy of the forces of law and order."
This is one of the finest examples of the use of words used to obscure meaning that we have ever seen. This utterance of lofty declarations in order to cover up the base motives of Ku Klux organization is the worst sort of lying. It will deceive a great many people, but it will not deceive any one familiar with the South and the Negro problem. Of course, it will be impossible for any colored people to be deceived by it. They will understand at once the hidden meaning of such phrases as, "to strengthen the power and prestige of the agencies of justice and order," and "to maintain the peace and security of the people, even in the absence or inadequacy of the forces of law and order."
Certainly the Ku Klux Klan can be of great service if instead of planning to take the enforcement of law into its hands it will insist that its own members obey the law.
The Imperial Wizard declares that a lodge of the Klan would be organized in New York. All we wish to say is that if the New York lodge should contemplate carrying out any of its "purposes" in Harlem it will have our sympathies, even our condolences in advance.
LAST WEEK IN THE LAND OF LYNCHING
Three very striking cases happened last week in the Land of Lynching. In one case the accused man was dragged out of the courtroom, where he was being tried at a special term of court called for the purpose of trying him, taken into the street and lynched. This was done over the strenuous protest of the judge. The only consideration shown by the mob was that it did not go to the trouble to take the victim out of the courthouse to lynch him.
In another case the mob made a mistake and lynched the wrong man. This is a mistake that is probably quite common, though not often shown up. In the third case a young colored man in Texas charged with criminal assault and twice rescued from the mob was acquitted by the jury before which he was tried. Had he been lynched he would have been one more added to the long list of innocent men who have been done to death.
These three cases alone ought to be sufficient to arouse the country to the danger, the viciousness and the downright barbarity of lynching. But it is hardly likely that they will have the slightest effect. In fact, it is doubtful that one-tenth of the people in the country paid any attention to these happenings as they were recorded in the newspapers, beyond reading the headlines. The United States has become so accustomed to acts of the mob that it is not disturbed by them.
The most available deterrent for lynching will be a strong and adequate Federal law. Some may say that even a Federal law against lynching will not completely stop it. Well, perhaps it won't, but that is no argument against having it. The laws against murder have not completely stopped people from killing, but no one argues from that that we had just as well be without the laws. Every decent citizen in the country ought to urge upon the incoming Congress the passage of a law making lynching a Federal offense.
THE HAITIAN INQUIRY
for the Haitian inquiry which is being held. The more it is evident that a Congressman, President Dartiguenave himself in test, and this to be true. He stressed the point of administration had been even more detrimental. He said that the Haitians had the oppression of the American Minister from the marines. He seemed to unite the military investigation which would not marines by punishing them does not threaten. We have acted as they have in Haiti be- tital thing to find out is why are they th- but only in an investigation which goes out of the military.
The farther the Haitian inquiry which is being held in Port-au-Prince goes the more it is evident that a Congressional investigation is necessary. President Dartiguenave himself in testifying showed that he realized this to be true. He stressed the point that the American civil administration had been even more detrimental than the military administration. He said that the Haitians had more to complain of from the oppression of the American Minister and Financial Adviser than from the marines. He seemed to understand thoroughly that the military investigation which would make scapegoats of one or two marines by punishing them does not touch the heart of the situation.
The Marines have acted as they have in Haiti because they are there. The vital thing to find out is why are they there. This can be brought out only in an investigation which goes beyond the wrongful acts of the military.
COMPULSORY RIGHTEOUSNESS
Newspapers are full of the plans under way for the enforcing and revival of a Puritan Sunday. The movement is led by the "Lord's Day Alliance," an organization headed by a Rev. Harry L. Dowlby. According to Mr. Bowlbly, he is backed by the leading Protestant denomination and also the powerful Anti-Saloon League. In a recent interview, Mr. Bowlbly stated the program of the Alliance. He said the slogan of the Lord's Day Alliance is, "A return to a more sane and sensible observance of our American Christian Sabbath, the securing of the right of one day of rest in the seven for every honest toiler, this day to be Sunday wherever possible." When Mr. Bowlbly was pressed to name enterprises he would class in order that the toiler might rest, he specified the following:
Newspapers and other publications.
Commercial moving pictures.
Candy stores.
Bootblack stands.
Delicatessen.
News stands.
Sunday excursions by train or boat.
Base ball parks:
Bathing beaches and resorts.
Sunday golf and other sports.
Theatre concerts and other entertainment.
The people behind this movement may think they are sincere in proclaiming that their object is to obtain one day of rest for the "honest toiler," but a glance at their program shows that they are not. It shows that their main motive is not to stop people from working, but to stop them from pleasuring. Perhaps some of those connected with this movement feel that the people who are kept from pleasure on Sunday will go to Church. The Rev. Mr. Bowlby, however, expresses a more disinterested motive. He says, "It is not more cheap fun and cheap amusement that our youth needs today, but more time for serious reflection. The one day belonging to us for that is the Sabhiath Day, the others belonging to schools, business and professions and that they intend to see that the laboring man shall not be led to the grilloline to be ascrissified upon a cross of gold.
To quote Bryan, "to have pressed down on the brow of labor a Crown of Thorns."
What Mr. Bowlby says is eloquent gnough and sounds quite noble, but it is too far removed from good sense and human experience to deserve much consideration. We agree with Mr. Bowlby when he suggests that it is not more cheap fun and cheap amusement that our youth needs today; but when he adds that what they need is more time for serious reflection, it shows how far off the track he is. The percentage of human beings who indulge in serious reflection is almost infinitesimally small. More time to reflect does not make men reflect seriously; it takes something more than that. First, it requires a certain amount of brains and in addition a certain kind of training.
If the mass of people would act seriously from merely being given time to do so, it would be an easy matter to solve most of the problems of human existence. If Mr. Bowlby is able to carry his plans through he is doomed to disappointment in finding that the people who now on Sundays frivol away their time in silly amusement, will not be made into serious thinkers.
Whatever Mr. Bowly's motives, the country at large is sure to feel that the whole movement is an attempt to establish the "blue law" Sundays. It is sure to arouse the antagonism probably of one-half of the population of the country, because they will feel that it is actuated by a desire on the part of those who do not care to or are not in a position to indulge in amusement on Sundays, to compel others to abstain.
The newspapers of the country are publishing full accounts of the intentions of the Lord's Day Alliance and are doing a great deal to head off the movement. We think it is well that they have done this, because we can see no possible good-such Sunday laws as the Alliance contemplates would do. There can be no such thing as "Compulsory Righteousness." The proper and beneficial use of one's leisure time must come from education and training rather than from compulsion.
A VOICE FROM SANTO DOMINGO -
We are sometimes made to feel that we have more knee-ringing, boot-licking, soft-talking hypocrites in our race than there are in any other. Of course, that is not true. Every group has its specimens of this kind to deal with. We notice by today's newspapers that the people of Santo Domingo are no doubt afflicted with the same sort of vermin.
On last Monday President Wilson received three new ministers at Washington, one representing Costa Rica, another Guatemala, and the third the Dominican Republic. Although the United States has absolutely overthrown the sovereignty of the Dominican Republic, yet this minister in presenting his credentials to President Wilson said:
"The altruistic and humanitarian spirit that has characterized your Excellency's Administration, the noble record of the people of the United States as a chivalrous champion of justice and right, are constant proof that in the relations of your Government with the people of the Dominican Republic there could be no other sentiments than those of sympathy for the young Republic in her misfortunes, nor other purposes than these inspired by lofty and generous intentions, without a doubt, as those inspiring the best and most disinterested of our citizens."
The only consolation the people of Santo Domingo have is that this minister is drawing a salary to represent not their sentiments but to flatter the Wilson administration.
Y. W. C. A. POLICY.
The possibilities of the extension of the work of the Young Women's Christian Association among the girls and women of the colored race have been demonstrated as practically unlimited, by the results of the tentative efforts made in certain sections. The response to the call of wider opportunities for mental and physical improvement has indicated the existence of a striving toward the ideals of true womanhood, which lacked the needed facilities for realization.
Now that this want has been realized and a systematic effort has been inaugurated to serve the needs of the colored girl in the same manner as the needs of the girls of other races have been met, it is proper to give a thought to the manner in which this work should be carried on in order to afford the greatest good to the greatest number.
The policy pursued by the management of the Y. W. C. A., should be broad and not sectional, its basic being the appeal to the essential elements of human nature which chartered mankind and womankind regardless of race or color. The same consideration should should be given the needs and aspirations of the colored girl as the girl of any other race, as her mind is moved by the same ideals and longings common to girlhood and womanhood. The conditions from which the race-emerged fifty years ago, should be forgotten, as those conditions no longer exist and the stories of them is but little more than a tradition to the present generation. To cater to an abnormal racial prejudice based on such conditions, by the adoption of a so-called Southern policy or a Northern policy would be a fatal mistake, that would only hinder and obstruct the progress of the work.
The policy of the organization should be founded on mutual respect and confidence between the races and the primal object of building up true womanhood. To do this successfully and with the least friction possible, there should be one responsible head for the extension of the work among the colored women and not a divided responsibility. Any submissiveness to sentiments that interfere with such a policy should be done away with and replaced by the firm belief in a universal sisterhood, united for human rights and the elevation of strongling womanhood. Let the best thinking women of both races get to griever and plan to carry out a real Christian policy of constructive character building under a strong and united leadership.
NEW YORK'S MANY BELIGIONS
NEW YORK'S MANY RELIGIONS.
Although popularly regarded as a godless town, embodying the modern idea of Spadom and Gomorrah, an inspection of the religious advertising columns in the Saturday newspapers reveals the fact that New York has nearly as many varieties of religion as a well-known manufacturer of relishes carries on his trade list. Besides the many branches of the Protestant faiths, represented by the Baptist, Congregationalists, Lutheran, Methodist, Presbyterian, Episcopal.
copalians, Unitarian, Universalists and the Reformed Church, there are the great number of Roman Catholic and Jewish adherents to be taken into consideration.
Other beliefs that extend a welcome to the visiting stranger or the resident theater seeking a permanent haven, are Christian Science, Dime Science, New Thought, Instantaneous Healing, Mental Science, Philosophy, Practical Christianity, Spiritualism, Thoughts and the Y.M.C.A. The New Church (Swedishborgian) invites a consideration of the great paradox that man is born into utter helplessness and ignorance in order that he may grow to be wise, while the Vedanta Society, under the mystical leading of a noted swami, offers a revelation of psychological experiences.
Nor is the above a full catalogue of the many varieties of religious faith preached and practiced within the limits of the great metropolis. The beauty of Mormonism are set forth to those willing to hear in a modern replica of the Salt Lake City Tabernacle while the tenets of Socialism are inculcated in Sunday Schools and other Sunday meetings held for that purpose in various sections of the city.
The Negro has contributed a modest share to the multiplication of religious offshoots by organizing such independent Protestant denominations as the Union American Methodist and the African Union Protestant churches, besides the greater bodies of the Methodist, Baptist and other faiths. Then there are such smaller units of reconstant nomelature as the Church of God and Saints of Christ and the Church of the Holy Rollers, which make up no lack of numbers by the volume of religious fervor exhibited.
An effort was made not long ago to promote a new cult known as Bahism, but whether the doctrine attained the dignity of a permanent meeting place does not appear'. Undoubtedly shrines dedicated to Buddha and Confucius could be found by those who know where to seek them, while plans for a Mohammedan mosque have been reported under serious consideration by followers of the prophet in this city. Every new preacher of a faith that seeks new followers can find a hearing here, from Alexander Dowey to Marcus Carvey. Whether they can make good or not depends upon the soundness of the theories they advocate and whether they can stand the acid test of practical demonstration.
But the fact remains that instead of being the godless town reputed, New York is the center of many religious activities, awarded aiming for the betterment of imperfect humanity. One of the most useful religious organizations working in the city is the Salvation Army, which lives up to its inspiring motto that while a man may be down, he is never out.

The death of Bishop F. of the African Methodist church adds yet another name growing mortality list of the which we had occasion to months ago. Although his Nashville, Tenn., Bishop Tyler known to New Yorkers, he sided over the First district ten years, where he made man by his amiable character at of speech. He presided trict for a longer term than ius, bishop.
The editor of the Hibernian Recorder applies religious omities in the following tithing a certain church:
In this church the people care $50,000 per year. Most of the spend. About $100,000 is spent but we have no real estate to us. Most of us rent from what $10,000 of this rent money hangers painters, carpenters most of it to whites. Society goes to food. But we have in the church. Whom a friend the most popular class, holds a little score, he father, within three months. Most of for food is spent with people associate with colored people not even hire colored persons would feel insulted if we speak equality.
Nearly every time we go church, some one comes to get a job for this or that dearest man or woman, as though from the skies. If the memorial church should, put their money they could employ 1 bank bank clerks, 20 grocery clerks estate agents, 10 stenographers, cries, and bookkeepers, 10 train dealers, ice dealers, physicians. What a wonderful inspiration that be to the young people in the town, and how our people ahead in education, deserve practical religion.
That is so clear that he who runs read. Cooperation is the answer.
According to the Southern Worker the Negro is such a large farm labor, that he supplies on the workers of the country. It
the Negro is such a large force in labor, that he supplies ammunition to the workers of the country. Forty thousand of the South coal miners union are Negro third of the workers in America and steel, as well as a large part of the workers in the packing industry are Negroes. Negroes form of the employees in the Chicago yards. They are also largely responsible in the building trades. One-third railway workers in this country groves. It is significant that these workers large in the basic industry, to our civilization, in production of fine textiles, machinery and transport. And yet this is the less that the South is doing continued injustice and oppression.

In The Realm of Music
By Lucien H. White
Hazel Harrison in Ranks of The World's Greatest Artists
I have frequently discoursed upon the need for more preparation of those of the race who aspire to artistry. It has been conceived a key to success in the musical profession, as in the law, the medicine, the industries or skilled mechanics, is to be found in which comes from Preparation, Preparation, and then more intelligently directed study, with a conscientious and patient theoretical knowledge by practical application, is an absolute essential or the teaching of any stage approaching perfection.
The presumist or the easily-discouraged has countered with the use? The Negro artist will have no chance—no opportunity in ability. And then, too, we sometimes hear it said, in speakably gifted son of the race, that "if he were only white!" and with the meaning that a change in the color of skin would mean a scope of opportunity and endeavor which would be available with all specious argument, there is enough of truth in this dangerous. There is a color-bar erected by the Caucasian world which operates with especial significance in the United States, in general, the avenues of activity open to the Negro artist, the artists who are not hampered by the color-line. But it must be said that those activities are owned and controlled by Caucasians only the following of natural impulse which opens a door for the colored artist will find closed.
to the artist who is simply one of many of similar attain-
ment in the mediocre artist, either. Even one of extra ability and
in the ranks of the race, becomes one of a crowd when

On the contrary, he has for years presided at the organ magogue and he has given organ recitals in all sections of the occupied the conductor's desk in operatic recitals on any and as a teacher and accompanist he finds practically all of the take, high tank as a composer. And he is an Associate of Organists. The color-line does not exist when as a musician is under consideration.

Joe Hume, Pablo Casals, Guomar Novae, Pierre Granger, Jacques Thibaud, and many others was not placed by Wight Neumann a page of her color. Nor did her color preclude an artist. Does this carry a lesson, to the injured student? To me mind, it shows conclusively that there is a possibility for the injured art that ability is sufficiently outstanding to make the question to say, "The Negro is not a page of her color." The true answer is, he can take up his task and be coming up with an opportunity to finish him prepared, and the motion of the artist is completed.

bad Montgomery. Plans for an extended southern tour, carrying her as far as Texas, are not complete, and other plans still in abeyance will probably prevent her appearance in New York, at least for several months.
The matter of an official organ for the National Association of Negro Musicians seems to have gone through several phases before coming to a definite conclusion—if it has at last done that. At the convention held in New York last July the announcement was made from the floor of that body that the Negro Musician, already endorsed by the board of directors as the association's official organ, would be consolidated with the Master Musician, a Philadelphia publication. Representatives of the Quaker City journal substantiated the statement, and in the number, issued for October, the Philadelphia management announced that by reason of the projected consolidation the future name of the Master Musician would be The American Musician.
But, under date of October 4, there comes an announcement from Washington, signed by Henry Lee Grant and Clarence Cameron White, publishers of the Negro Musician, and by Wellington A. Adams, editor and publisher of the Music Master at Washington, stating that the proposed consolidation with the Philadelphia journal had fallen through and that instead a merger had been effected with Mr. Adam's magazine, the official organ to retain the title, "The Negro Musician."
All of this is interesting, of course, but a more interesting development would be the actual publication of the so-called official organ. From all reports, there was a appeared a copy of the newly created publication, which then been any word as to when this new-old infant would come to life. Mr. Adams, all alone, issued the Music Master with a certain degree of frequency, and it would be reasonable to expect that a consolidation of interests ought ensure at least an occasional copy of the "official organ."
In his announcement concerning the merger, Mr. Adams said that "we had deferred publication of recent issues on the magazine for the reason that we were arranging a corporation whereby we may be better prepared to continue the magazine. . . Mr. Henry L. Grant, president of the Association of Negro Musicians, advanced a sound business proposition for a merger . . . which we felt bound to accept . . . Beg a continuance of that support in the new publication as merged, the first issue which will appear soon." That was written October 4; it is now December 4, and it would appear that two months ought to be sufficient time for the production of a magazine under such favorable conditions, as were outlined by Messrs. Grant, White and Adams.

HOLDS FASHION SHOW
Trenton, N. J.-For the purpose of
illustrating the work done at her
institution, Mrs. Agnes L. Kert,
head of the Trenton School of Dress-
making and Design, at Mt Montgomery
place, conducted a fashion show at
Hurley's hall last evening. The
pupils of the school are young colored
girls and women, and last evening's
affair was attended by several hundred
who represented the best of the city's Negro residents. The proceeds
of the entertainment will be devoted
to providing scholarships for six
worthy girls.
Handsome gowns of rich materials featured the affair. Each costume had been made at the school, and most instances by its wearer. Mrs Kemp teaches the Paris method and styles ranged from the quietest and most conservative to gowns of the most gorgeousness and brilliance. All were within the bounds of good taste, however, and many of them were lovely examples of the most painstaking hand work.
One of the most commendable noun was an afternoon costume worn in a paine velvet worn by Mrs Ursula Rodman. With the gown Mrs Rodman wore an acquaintive hand embroidered hat of the same material. An exeving dress of exceptional beauty was worn by Mrs Carl Flipper, wife of the pastor of Mr Zoon M. M. F. church. Mrs Flipper's dress was of black satin, with tiny sleeves and a sector of gold lace. She wore a huge crowsbill hat of black mint. A rainbow tulle scarf and a corsage bonnet of Hilder roses paste in the right touch of color.

Hart.
The entertainment part of the program closed with the recitation of "The Seven Ages of Man" by Ms. P. H. Richardson, assisted by characters representing each age. Three babies, in neatly decorated coaches, smiled through the first age. During the evening a hat was rendered by Miss Ruth Skillman and Mrs. Harry Rodman. Both young women possess fine voices and their work won much praise. Music was furnished by Griffin's orchestra.
Three more pupils were graduated on the same date: Miss Marietta M. Fryman of Wilkes-Barre, Pa.; Miss Harriet J. Arnold of Morristown, N. Y., and Mrs. Beatrice Davis of Trenton, N. J.
The Age Readers' Forum
TIME FOR RACE TO ACT!
To the Editor of The Age:
The national Thanksgiving Day has come and gone. But save for their good health, and that all have been lymed and burned at the stake by the lawless mobs of the South, the colored people had but very little, to be thankful for, or today still turns us waiting, praying and watching for that anxiety and democracy which was so tithiitiously pounded during the trying hours on the nation's troubles. The colored people were not found wanting when called to give their lives for preservation of the hour of this country. They answered, "Here am I," to every call that was made by Uncle Sam, to help make this country safe to live in. But where, in the name of God, is the safe place in which the colored brathel may lay his head without fear of being disturbed by the do-you please lawless mobs. Echo answers where! O, where!
Only a few days ago the lawless, mob in Georgia, shot to death two men and one "woman" of the loyal colored race, on mere "suprison" of having killed a white man; colored men and women of America, I am of the opinion that you are too soundly asleep on this uncalled for outrage against the race. You've woke up and sound the "distress alarm against the lynching and burning, and shooting to death of colored men and women in this country on mere "suprison". Think for a while, that instead of getting better, the hellish mobs are growing more numerous and worse in this country. No other nation of people on the face of God's green earth would rest so easily under such treatment as the colored race had done, and is still doing.
And I am talking now especially to the colored men and women of the North, East and West. It is your kith and kin, that is being bindered in the South. And it is your duty to come to their tissue through your Senators and Representatives in the United States Congress. Imagine what influence would be brought to hear upon these statement of men and women of the white race, were being murdered on more suspicion, as colored men and women are being murdered. Do you not sympathize with your own blood? Were today many meetings, are being held in this Country by sympathizers of the oppressor, human beings in Ireland, thousands of Irish sympathizers are marching in front of the White House here every night to arouse this country to oil those people in their struggle for government. The Jews hold meetings, to aid and oppress race in Russia, Armenia and wherever that race of people is being oppressed. But

Washington, D.C. - Major Charles Redmond Douglas, youngest surviving son of the late J.rick Douglas, died at his late home, SJL a street, northeast, Washington, on Tuesday, November 23rd, 1920, age 76. His funeral was held from the 15th Street Presbyterian Church, the Rea F. J. Grimke, pastor, officiating, and interment was in the National Cemetery at Arlington, Va. The services were under auspices of the Fred Douglas Port, G.A. R. of which the deceased was the late commander.
Major Douglas is nursed by the widow, Mrs. Laura A. Douglas, and two sons, Jorh H and Haley G. Out of two relatives attending the funeral were Mrs. Harriet M. of Elmira N.Y. Mrs. Edward Perry of Kansas City, Mo. Mrs. Florence H. Richmond Vaccinia C. A. Haley R. N.Y. H. H. palliatresses were Dr. A.M. Curtsie, Judge R. H. Terrell Dr. J.R. Wilber, Judge R. H. Hillenruey W. Cook, L. McLinden King, John Turner, Edgar Smith and Fugate Brooks.
Major Duncan was born at Lennox
Ma. to October 21, 1814, and at the age
of 10 was apprenticed in his father's
attention to the printers trade. He was
married at the age of 22 and lived on
an art institution in April 9, 1832, and
died in the War Department the

nour of these people are being burned at the stake, killing that down on race suspicion of having committed a crime. No, that blight of lawlessness belongs only to Christian (1) America. The colored people here in Washington and in the State should call "humanization" meeting, and enter a strong protest against this contempt lynching of children, 22 women in this country. Let a call be metting air "indignation" meeting, and swell up the proper resolutions to present to the President: into the Congress. And let's march, on thousand strong, to the capital a few days. Congress meets, and lay our complaints before that body. Something must be done to halt the cruel, inhuman treatment of the colored race in the South.
If ever, there was a time for our leaders to get together and speak out for the race, it is now! Now is the time for the race to stand back of the N. A. A. C. P., for that organization has for its leaders some of the best and most influential men of the race; men who will be heard if delegated to speak for their people. I refer to such men as Dr. DuBois, Fred R. Moore, James Weldon Johnson, A. Grimkie, and others of national fame. This is no time to fool with, office seeking homeheads. These crises call for men.
Knowing that the governors of the states will do absolutely nothing in the matter of punishing the lynching sportsmen in this country, lynching should be made a national crime. The South should be reminded of the fact that she is still in the Union, and that her murderous acts are a disgrace to civilization. Voters of the North, will you be indifferent about the welfare of your people here, while you see other races doing all they can for their people who are thousands of miles away? May God help you to wake up and feel the care you owe to your suffering kin in that God forsaken Southland.
Of the three persons who were so brutally shot down at Douglass Georgia, a few days ago, two were man and wife. Now, it may be that that father and mother left some dear little children behind who will have to get a piece of bread as best they can. Will not the N. A. A. C. P. kindly call upon the churches for a collection—if it hasn't in its treasury—in order to send some one to that place to get those little ones and bring them away? You'll have no mean time, call indignation meetings throughout the country and send protests to Congress. We were tired of colored women being killed by brutal white assaults, and the thing must stop! J. C. CUNNINGHAM. Washington, D. C.

Daytona especially challenges the interest, support of the public license it operates a hospital institution for which their is tragic need in the South and trains attendants. The proximal club was appropriately organized at the Huffman Club Home for Girls, and Mrs Fannie Lamon elected president, Mrs Mary Jackson, secretary and Mrs Rosa Brown, treasurer.
The Club seeks to extend its membership, it not only buys for the cooperation of those who have money to give, but it looks for workers and sewers, those who know how to raise money, and those who can help prepare the supplies, the linen aprons, uniforms, etc. which such an institution literally eats up."

PANAMA JOE GANS

Challenger for World Walterweight
This.
PANAMA JOE GANS
SCORES KNOCKOUT
Another Jim Crow bout was furnished to boxing followers Friday night, Nov. 26, when Panama Joe Gans was pitted against Jack Christian, another gentleman of color, in Madison Square Garden. These boxers met in the semi-final bout to the world's championship affair between Benny Leonard, lightweight titleholder of the universe, and Joe Welling of Chicago.
Panama Joe again tried to convince the color line boxing commission which sanctions all houts, but none bringing together white men and Negroes, that he is clever enough to mingle with men of the chosen race. Panama culminated his efforts in the third round when he connected with Mr. Christian's jaw and the referee or whoever the Commission assigned to the meter is still counting over the uniformate recipient—or was when our representative left the Garden.
A Pittsburgh paper informs us that Panama Joe Gans has been signed up for a beat with the welterweight champion, Jack Britton, but if he is, Panama knows nothing about it.
Boxing Commission's Chance
The State Boxing Commission now has the greatest chance it ever had of gaining the support of every Negro voter in New York by authorizing promoters to stage bouts between white and colored boxes. Immediately bidding would start between promoters for a Jack Britton-Janaua Joe Gans match for the welterweight championship of the world. At the staging of such a match, Negroes in town and out will show the support they will give a worthy title contender of their race and the support they will give a commission which gives him fair play.
JACK JOHNSON WINS
HOLIDAY DO
Even though confined in the gray walls of a federal prison, Jack Johnson continues to startle the world with his athletic achievements. His deeds in boxing cannot be kept in jail apparently, despite concerted effort on the part of some sport writers to squash him.
In the holiday boxing show staged in Leavenworth Federal Prison, Kansas, Johnson featured the bill and took on two of the most worthy inmates in spirited contests. Frank Owens of Chicago was disposed of by the former titleholder in the last round of a six round bout. Johnson then took on "Topeka" Jack Johnson, a clever namesake of the deposed chief. The Topeka man lasted the full five rounds when matters were called to a halt.
Johnson seemed a little short of wind after the last encounter. Aside from that he seemed very much like the same old Jack.
Rev. E. W. Daniels, of St. Philips Paris, was visited by our representative following the disclosure of George Fial's resignation from St. Christopher Club, which was carried exclusively in The Age of last week. The Reverend Doctor who is known for his pioneer work among Negro youth in club work in this city spoke straight from the shoulder when asked by our representative of his attitude toward Fial's resignation. Waving our reporter to a seat Rev. Daniels entered right into the subject, not bitterly nor reproachfully, yet with no little determination.
LAFAYETTE THEATRE
"It is just a case of plain professionalism," began St. Christopher club's director. Fial's statement to you about uncongenial relations in this club is all bosh and directly contradictory to what he said to me and Mr. Bradford, our physical director. Fial came to me and said it was just a business proposition with him in basketball this season, he needed the money and he was going where he could get it. Fial repeated the same thing to Charlie Bradford, who has coached him in our gym since we dispensed with our white coach. I told the young man that St. Christopher never had paid an athlete and he knew it even though we have had national characters on our teams, including Paul Robeson, Fritz Pollard and James Havenell. I assured Fial furthermore we never would pay an athlete as long as I was in any way connected with the club.
"I don't know where Fial has gone, but I do know that few clubs will tolerate from him what St. Christopher Club has. Everybody knows this is not his first time to start this resignation game, but I fear this time it will work to his detiment. Fial told Mr. Bradford and me, he knew he would regret his step. We both wished him luck and he departed."
Here Rev. Daniels paused and asked our representative if he had a moment to spare. When assured by our man that he had the whole evening, Rev. Daniels dispatched one of the young men in the building to a nearby haunt of Fial's with instructions to bring him back with him.
"I would just like to see," explained Rev. Daniels, "if Fial will make such a statement to me as he gave to you about his not being able to get along with members on our team."
The young man soon returned and reported that Fial was not at his customary rendezvous and Rev. Daniels continued his discourse.
"We figure that Fial's development cost us several hundred dollars, yet we would not try to hold him against his will if he desires to join another club for sake of association. We won't even attempt to stop him though he joins another club for mercenary reasons. We will entertain no friendly relations however with any club which offers him inducements to join it, at the same time knowing of our expenditure."
St. C. Housecleaning...
"Fail's action comes just when we contemptulated doing some general housecleaning among our athletes. "We have resolved to remove every man off our team who has ever played professional baseball or basketball. Our team shall be made up of simpures only. We will ask our associate clubs to do likewise, but regardless of what they do, we intend carrying out our policy."
"Should the opposing clubs fail to co-operate with you, what then? Rev. Daniels was asked.
"Then we shall refuse to play them," he quickly replied. "Even though we have to play every one of our games with out of town teams or though we do not play one game during the season, we shall adhere to our policy."
Note: There it is! It has been as is! It is still in Nguyen aux Muot policy.
Strict adherence to such a plan will spell disaster to a number of clubs now but eventually all will have to fall in line. Read in next week's issue of The Age Ted's survey of the entire basketball situation.

Spartan Braves Win Popular Game From Washington Team
Basketball Expert Claims Second Half Was Stretched When Visitors Were Leading to Enable Champs to Tie Score
Ted Hooke, Sporting Editor, The New York Age.
I would like to call your attention to the long second half period played by the Carlsie and Spartan basketball hall teams on Thanksgiving night at Minneapolis Casino. I don't know whether it was through enrichment or aber light on the part of the timers, but I do know that the teams played two minutes and forty seconds over the regular twenty-minute period.
It is singular that the game was not ended until the Spartan team got on our arms with the Carlsie, who were leading at the end of the final twenty-second by two points.
I and this to you as I recognize in you and The Age champions for fair
Yours truly.

Captain Maidney of St. Paul played a brilliant game. He was injured in the second period and forced to retire. But was succeeded by A. Williams who proved himself equal to the occasion "Judge Vaughan appeared to be a stone wall, for not one inch was gained through left guard. Right halfback Boylan shattered St. Augs line several times for first down. Quarterback Walker hit unpassed general up, while Brooks, Daline and Samhar handled the throw pass to perfection.
Captain Griffin, Lamar and Holland of St. Augustine's played an exceptional game. St. Paul fumbled a kickoff by Griffin on her thirty yard line. Griffin recovered the pigskin and crushed St. Paul's goal for a touchdown. Holland received a kickoff on his own nineteen yard line, exuded eight St. Paul player and ran a distance of eight yards thus scoring St. Augustine's second and last touchdown.
THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1980
CARLISLE BASKETBALL TEAM AND COACH.
This Outfit is Credited by Experts With Beating Spartan Braves When They Met on Thanksgiving.
Spartan "Braves" Trim Carlisles of Washington
The "Braves" were away off form Thanksgiving night and came near going down before the unexpected strength of the Carlisle-quintet of Washington. D C Manager Bob Douglas started the game with Wallace and Stewart at forward. Slocum at center, and Forbes and MacDonald at guard, and neither team seemed to have any de-
cided advantage over the other.
The Spartan players, who had shown so much speed and form on Electric right, seconded both in their thanksgiving to the Wallace missed easy easy goals from the field. Spartan number continually, and even the heroes sure shot. Slobom had no aim on the basket, the best that the Spartan guards seemed able to do was to connect shots when Reference Husnusol never called to call. Soon the team which had entered soon the thou but a few minutes before bubbling over with confidence was playing like the rankest sort of notices.
Slocum Still a Wonder
The "Brakes" were saved from training the Carabiles in the opening period only by the clever those work of Shocum, who was the real sensation after the game got under way. "Slake" was handcapped in his shooting, however, by a very hard which had been damaged by a fellow club team's injuries in the damaged state the Starlings. "Wonder Man" accounted for eight of the fourteen points gained by his team in the first half.
Meanwhile the Carabiles had not been beaten and had scored six points to Spartan's position while the whistle blew ending the opening stanza.
After the regular rest period, the teams last time in a renewing hostilities, the Starlings replaced Man Donald on the Star队 and their score soon went up to 21. The Carabiles started the stage carried a rally and brought their score up to 15. Captain Capers removed Lomers, who was guarding points and went into the melee in a last effort to stop the Washington team. Captain Capers there were lonely.
Benny Hill Stars

This boy trade shots from all angles of the court in the second half and sometimes with the whole Spartan team clubbing it 12 hours. When the score reached 20.17 with Spartan with leading, the Carlisle called itself out and converted at one end of the field. Union training the game one of their players fouled and Wallace missed the free throw for Spartan. Taylor, the Carlisle captain, got hold of the ball and crumbled all the way down the field for a goal, which made the score 20.19. The ball was brought to center and Shumway to whereupon Hall got a free throw for the bucket which he missed. In the group following Hall's taille to tie the score with a free throw, the little player dazm got the ball in cold court and caged a goal which brought the crowd to its feet and put the trembles in the lead 20.20. Hall repeated with another field goal which made the score 20.21 in favor of the Carlisle.
Capt. Curtis offered a ball and substituted Otters for Stewart. Wallace shot a free throw, which beat the Braves training for two points. In the time which followed, Slugman tied the score with a old goal after many others had failed.

and upon the floor demanding that time be called and the game ended.
An extra five-minute period was agreed upon. Arnold and Hill starred for Washington, but were outscored by Slocum, Gittens and Capt Capers of the Spartan Braves. The final score was 28-32.
Referee Chris Hinsmond seemed a bit unaware in this extra period in his tour calling against the visiting team. The Spartans were possibly overtrained for their Thanksgiving game. Every member on the team had been in strict training since Election night. Yet an extra night's work was put in on the Tuesday before Thanksgiving.
Manager Douglas and Capt. Capers believe in hard work and lots of it, but that extra night's work on Tuesday was undoubtedly a mistake.

Y "CHRISTIANS" HOLD
CARLISLE CLOSE
End First Half Leading Washington Quintet. Only to Lose in Last Few Minutes.
In the first half of the game between the Carlsbad of Washington, D.C. and Charlie Mock's Y team last Saturday night, the Washingtonians failed to impress the many fans who turned in to see them display the trot which pretty near deliriously Spartan.
Both teams' work was amateurish in this opening stanza as the close score of 84 plainly indicates. Benj. Willcox seemed unable to get going and Layne, the Carlsbad's captain, came too close to the basket. Arnold, who was at center for the Carlsbad, tried too much individual play for the team's good.
Even the second half was well on its way before the visitors could show to advantage over the "Christians."
Big Charlie Mock, who went in at guard for his team in the absence of the regular Christian hooker man, was holding his team together remarkably. Their 8-6 lead was soon on to run like in the second half.
Taylor and Mock Out.
Soon after this success by the Y team, Taylor, who had guarded wonderfully for the leaders, was forced out of the game when he committed his fourth personal foul. Miller replaced Taylor but was not equal to the occasion. With ten minutes to be played, Mock was next called out of the trap when he had committed a fourth personal. Mock showed a little agitation as Referee Huisourd decision but soon calmed himself and went to the sidelines.
Themes followed about the most disastrous ten minutes ever experienced by the Y "Christians". Without their leader, they seemed lost. Close passing was resorted to and the Carlisle players broke through this and scored at will.
Benny Hill who distinguished himself as Manhattan Casino against Spartan Thanksgiving night, began playing to form and quickly overcome the "Christians" lead Taylor also played well for Carlisle.
Some idea can be gotten of the Washingtonian's sport in the second half when, during that time, we figure them up for 25 points and the Y boys only got 7. Final score was 29-15 in favor of Carlisle.

ST. MARK'S SWAMP
YONKERS.TW
Forty-seven, to fourteen (47-14) was the score piled up by the St. Mark's Bears against Jackson Yankees Tygars. This score, however, does not really do justice to the hard game played by the Yankees team. Fully five minutes of the first half elapsed before St. Mark's Bears were able to score against them. Both teams battled scoreless for that period when Lester Fial broke the monotony for the Bears and caged a goal from the field. Fial and Mont. St. Mark's big center, then used with each other in their goal shooting, to the close of the first period. Liquid the Bears with 18 points. In the same space of time, the Yankees Tygars had to content themselves with 5.
Renewal of play in the second half meant only the increasing of the St. Mark's score over their opponents. The 18 points gained in the earlier period was increased to 47 while the Tygars were halted on 14.
Fial easily outshone all of his fellow teammates by his clever floor work and goal caging. Capt Hacke Roune pleased also with his close guarding.
Most of the Yankees Tygars fourteen points were made by Francis and Hamilton.
Next Tuesday night hill Mitchell's "Bears" will entertain the Jersey City Independents on their court in St. Mark's Hall. Each Tuesday night brings new faces to St. Mark's Hall and Mitchell soon expects to have enough followers to attempt a game in Manhattan Casino.
The St. Mark's game against the Jersey City Independents should go a long way toward deciding their fitness for Manhattan.

Booing Spartan Basketball Team an Ill-Bred Practice Age Sport Writers Charge That Rowdy Element in Attendance at Games is Guilty of Antagonism to Home Team
Our reporters, in getting account of the game between the Carlisle team of Washington and the Spartan "Braves," Eastern Champions, report a rather disagreeable evidence of ill will toward the latter by an undisputable low clemency which follows the sport.
This group of noise makers, whose very appearance bepeaks anything but good manners and common sense, was observed to applaud Carlisle, not because they loved Carlisle more but because they loved Spartan less. This was plainly shown during exciting periods of the game when referee Huiswoud called fouls on members of the visiting team that would have been noticed by rank novices, yet this official was openly hissed by this thoughtless element, shown during exciting periods of the game when referee Huiswoud called fouls
Now, Spartan is a home Club. Spartan is one of our greatest local institutions. Its efforts in the sport world does not cease with making a champion basketball ball team out of the members on its court. Spartan is a team that, track athletics and other healthful pastimes which have the stamp of approval from experts
Trains the Youngest.
Above all, Spartan begins with the youngsters teaching him, with a hired professional, to play the game as it ought to be played and for the love of the game rather than for the profit he might derive. Limited in facilities as this club it is carries a membership among juveniles with which larger organizations with all modern conveniences cannot compare. Slovenianness is discouraged. Indistinguishness is its watchword. In the Spartan Club rooms, profanity and vile language is unknown. Then what is the attraction for its large youthful membership?
Bob Douglas, who manages Spartan's basket ball teams, says it is the democratic spirit which permeates the place, the perfect freedom granted to youngsters. We say it is that and more. It is the personal attention given to each and every one and above all, the living examples among the mature members of the club who the boys like to imitate. Every member on the Spartan team is some group of boys' hero. Therefore each has a responsibility which to this day, few have shirked.
Never Lacked Sportmanship.
In the earlier days of basketball, when Spartan was making efforts to gain a foothold on the ladder to fame, its supporters while not so numerous as they are today, were never accused of being bad sports. Some were possibly too enthusiastic and lost their hard earned cash on the chances of Ross, the Ahlers, Dougles, Guttens and the other members of their squad against more smoothly working combinations, yet few were accused of being bad losers. Therefore, there is no need to day to teach Spartan members and followers sportsmanship by overdoing the apologies to a visiting team and by showing a mean spirit toward Spartan.

A description of the murderer was given by Dr. Jackson to Headquarters Detectives Sweeney and Haar and Inspector Grant, who investigated the case. The police found the pistol with which the shooting was done, and this pistol, together with finger prints on the brick wall, will be used as clues to reason for the murder is known to exist, but some months ago Dr. Brown is known to have received a threatening letter in which he was advised to leave a certain sum of money near the Union Station. This was leit at the time and place called for in the letter, but detectives were on hand to find the party, who did not appear. One of the police theories is that the world he extortionist is the man who did the shooting. The other is that the man with a contender, was in search of narcotic drug.
