(Signal) CHARLES W. ANDREWS New York-Brooklyn Churches Hold Christmas Services Elaborate Musical Programs and Appropriate Sermons Heard by Many Why Composed Congregations During Votide Exercises appropriate to Christmas Day were held by many of the New York and Brooklyn churches, both on Christmas Day, and on the Sundays preceding and following. The beautifully clear hues and warm summery atmosphere contributed largely to increased attendance at religious services and added much to the observance of the Spirit of the Day. Ministers at the various congregations preached sermons applicable to the season and choirmasters and organists had trained their choirs to sing carols, anthems and cantatas carrying as the burden of the themes some reference to the Birth of the Christ Child. Auxiliaries connected with the churches had, in many cases, spent much time in decorating appropriately the houses of worship and the people who attended services found their surroundings entirely in keeping with the joyous Christmas Spirit, but of an elaborateness and comfort that was far removed from the bare manger of far-off Bethlehem. Beautiful music is always a feature of the Christmas Season and the many capable and efficient choirs of New York were well prepared to make this Christmas Day of 1920 a notable one from a musical standpoint. "Stabat Mater". Sung. Rossini's "Stalbat Mater" was the offering on Sunday night by the choir of Salem M. E. Church, 102 West Lark Street, the Key, Frederick A. Cullen pastor, and Rudolph Grant, organist/chairmaster. The solists were Mr. Goine, soprano, Mrs. Mectill, contralto; Mr. Simmons, tenor, and Mr. Williams, bass. Supported by a splendid trained choir, Mr. Grant succeeded in giving a notable performance of this beautiful work. It was given in its entirety, save the final chorus, the "Amen Chorus." A chorus from Handel's "Messiah" "for unto us a Child is born" was substituted for this number with telling effect. Preceding the oratorio, the pastor conducted a short opening service, followed by the rendition of several numbers by the choir and various soloists, under the direction of Mr. Grant, Giannod's "New Maria" was sung by George Hermann, tenor, and P. T. Hammond, sung. The Angel's Song by Stickles. The other soloist was Mrs. Carolyn B. Cullen, wife of the pastor, who rendered with the effect Daniels "In a Lowly Manger." Notable features of this section of the service were a quintet, with Mrs. Christine David, soprano, singing the Glissante with a quartet of male voices, with a quartet of male voices, in "Hark" Those Horn Voices by Wilson and a double trio of tenor voices, Medagliae singer, Nelson, Gulliver, White and Coleman and Mrs. Pursell, which sung "Song. Winge" is Helena B. Moullein. The anthems were "There Were Singers," by Amnet, and "Ebold I Brennan," by Culmin. An orchestral accompaniment for the opening service was provided by F. Hall Johnson, violinist, Marion Cunnelist, and W. H. Kyer, pianist, with Mr. Grant himself at the organ. The ensemble work of the setlist was commented on by the auditors as being of a high order. I. Wilma Jackson, organist, choirmaster at St. Mark's M. E. Church, West Saint street, with his large and well-ornapped body of singers, afforded great pleasure to the hosts that attended service at the church on Sunday, December 19, the Salatha preceeding Christmas. She sang a carol service, with members from Novels' book of carols, "Mary Baby," a Negro spiritual arranged by Mrs. Natalie Curtis from themes gotten on St. Helena's Island, S. C. two choruses from Handel's "Messiah" including on course, the Hallahah chorus, and solo by Mrs. Muniu Brown and Mrs. Fidel Clarke, soprano; Charleen Foster, and G. Warren Larsen parsian; Miss Mariana Johns, the contralto, was importantly called away by a sudden death in her family and her services. Belin at St. Philip's, P. E. Church, Wear 13th street, the Rev. H. E. Bishop, pastor, gave an elaborate musical program, as did the choir at Mr. Olivet Baptist Church, the Rev. Wm. P. Haves, pastor, the Abbsessian Baptist Church, the Rev. A.

"But Mary kept all these things and pardoned them in her heart." The sermon was filled with many spiritual truths. One young woman was read into the church, Excellent music, in hopping with the Christmas spirit, was rendered by the choir. Pastor Bolden distributed to the members of the church and friends assembled beautiful Christmas calendars. Those who intended the session of the Sunday School organized a splendid program by the children of the primary department, at St. Mary's Jarrett, Miss Johnson was nurtured by communities. The opening exercises were conducted by Miss Alice Holloway. The Christmas carols were beautiful and were sung with much enthusiasm by the children. On Monday night the Christmas tree exercises were held, the larger children taking part. Each member of the school, old and young, was remembered by Santa Merle a splendid program, ice cream and cake were served to every one present. At the afternoon meeting at 3:30 p.m. Pastor Bolden preached the annual sermon to Toussaint L. Ouvrière Lodge of Old Holloway. A large number was on presentations were made from the ledge to pastor, church, organist and session. At the 8 o'clock service Pastor Bolden preached from the second clause of Our Lord's Praise "Hallowed Be Thy Name." A splendid talk was made by J. of Izrael of B.S.A. The choir again rendered beautiful Christmas anthems, M. Lights and R. Juliet, oblits. The members of the Missionary Society presented to Pastor Bolden a token of their appreciation of his worth and service to them and the community during the past year. The members of the church gave a large offering to Pastor Bolden as a Christmas gift from them. Dinner was served during the day by members of the Emmanuel Social Center. On Christmas Day Pastor Bolden conducted the services at 10 o'clock, a large number attending. A splendidly arranged dinner was served by the members of the Missionary Society. The table looked very nice, with the beautiful decorated Christmas tree, and the ladies dressed in (Continued On Seventh Page) Washington Social Organize Com Paid Attaches of Vau Unite as Individuals to Social Problems and Washington Social Workers Organize Community Council Paid Attaches of Various Organization Unite as Individuals to Promote Study of Social Problems and Race Relations (Special to The New York Age) Washington, D.

Unemployment And The Negro's Status Colored Employees First to Be Affected by Industrial Slump As Most Recent Comer Into Industrial Field Is Less Considered by Employers Who Favor Workers of Longest Tenure By HOWARD D. GREGG, Industrial Secretary, New York Urban League. More than 3,000,000 people in our country are unemployed. The fact that the Negro is a part of the commonwealth and must also suffer with the whole is a crumis too evident for discussion. This is simply saying that what affects the whole affects also the parts. This fact is clear and generally known. It is not generally known, however, that the Negro is a part of the whole must suffer more than any other part because of reasons which are not altogether evident. A review of the situation today makes this fact more convincing. The present slump is in the field of industry, and the Negro was the last to enter this field in large numbers. This means two things: 1) That he is now on the job (being new he has had less opportunity to become efficient. But this is not all; his wives have the effect on both employer and himself. The employed is less inclined to favor the newcomer and especially one that was taken on in a case of emergency. He is apt to let him go because the emergency is no longer present. Again the Negro himself is affected by his newness in that he has had less time in which to adjust himself and less time in which to prove his fitness and get on the good side of employers. These are facts, not theories, though the Negro is not altogether responsible. the fact compelled in working with them too in more than two industrial courts post, more than three colored garments, which they charged three colored garments who had served them three years, two years and almost monthly factories, they were mostly old standards. The Negro domicile though has affected by the crisis, have commanded of being put on for white workers or antagonized by unreasonable wage production and the spirit of independence of their employer that they were forced to leave their jobs. It has also been discovered that an aristocrat, long four-timed committee composed of well-to-do white persons has been visiting factories perennial employers to use white workers. They compel the duty of one hand to the trade and the home Unskilled Worker Loses Out. A careful observation of the proportionate number of skilled, unskilled and unskilled persons out of work will show that the unskilled worker is the greatest sufferer. This is but natural. Employers are reluctant to let go their skilled workers and wherever possible will relieve the unskilled and keep the skilled. Investigation shows that in many instances, skilled workers have been reduced to semi-skilled positions, and in others the skilled workers are covering the ground of the skilled workers who have been laid off. This matter is not a new issue. As the Negro is a newcomer he has had less opportunity to move from the unskilled class into that of the skilled, if conditions were favorable. His newness here again reacts against him. A truth which we have to admit is that the majority of Negro workers are unskilled and since the crisis affects most the unskilled, the colored man most of all is hit hard. The Negro is not only the newest in the field of industry and falls chiefly into the unskilled class, but he is the separate individual worker who, in course, suffers more than the group. He it is, who is mostly out of the union, he it is who is least organized and fenced, imposed upon. In the particular case under consideration he has been the greatest. The process of elimination has been gradual and in almost every instance union workers were the last ones to be laid off. Employers may prefer the separate individual worker and in some instances may spasmodically free the whole union if enough unorganized workers are present. But when the elimination process is slow, the whole situation is changed. The tale of woe is universal as it has always been; namely that the unorganized, unaffiliated, separate workers are mostly the greatest sufferers. One or two instances may suffice. A dress house on West 27th street, New York City, discharged 90 employees, 91 of whom were colored girls. All discharged were non-union workers. When the ships arrive at the docks, the local union is always called to work on masses. The individual, separate applicant has not a chance unless perishable goods must be unloaded or the ship must immediately discharge, its cargo to sail on schedule time. Industrial Prejudice Not only is the Negro newest in the field of industry, and hence has had less opportunity to pass into the skilled class, and not only is he unorganized and separates, but he stands face to face with prejudice in industry as in all other matters in our country. His color here again is a barrier which cannot be lightly considered. Employers and managers who are white, invariably discharge their colored workers first. Colored girls who have been laid off of alarm that they are in group were the earliest ones to go out withstanding that they were just as efficient as those white co-workers. Interviewees substitute this conclusion in a further interview with an employer, referring to the colored girls were employed above the colored girls were employed the fact required in working with them not as much as the situation costs you, no more, so you can be employed a term of ten or twenty years, when they will be leaving the job, and uninterrupted the three years, two years and served their most months, respectively, if they are most oldest in the firm. The Negro domesticity, though less affected by the crisis, have compared it being put on for white workers or antagonized by unreasonable wage production and the spirit of independence of their employer that they were torced to leave their jobs. It has also been discovered that an aristocratic, long four-timed committee composed of well-to-white workers has been setting factories presuming employers to use white workers. They compensate the thirty of one land per year and the home of the slave to the employer who is now waking up to work on the degree of consideration in the post. The government is still not stationing it may go on for the duration. During the second year, 1921, the committee of the Negro domesticity placed the 19th position in the list of applicants. During November, 1921, the committee only placed the 17th position in the list of applicants. During December 12, 1921, the then ten-year term of 26 percent of its applicants. During the corresponding week in 1921, more than 12 percent were placed. The juveniles of the domesticity more than any other group. Another social agency during the same week in 1921 placed 21 persons out of 159 who applied. During the corresponding week in 1920, only 72 were placed out of 519 who applied. These facts show conclusively that the situation is by no means unhappy. Post-War Readjustment. The present state has been attributed to the intermittent exchange, uncommon necessity to buy on the part of the community, politics and prosperous development. All are brought in for their share on the blame. These may be contributing factors but the inevitable reaction from a period of joint and extra-general or the post-war adjustment which could not be longer delayed, has set in and is destined to run the gamble to readjustment. It is simply the law of supply and demand and unless legislative measures take this into account efforts to reform will be useless. All laws that have neglected, this axiom have failed from the days, when the Roman Emperor, Diocletian, issued his famous effect, making it punishable by death for the Roman exchange to charge more than official prices to a Roman household down to the present time. This country however, should be able to adjust itself without any serious inconvenience to the inhabitants. But we are particularly in erased for the Negro. He being one of the greatest sufferers, must be cautious of all. He should stick to his job as far as is reasonably possible, accept the gradual adjustments. Sposmodic outbursts and nothing. It is the color, sensible person that wins. The colored another should scive every opportunity for advancement and work with a reasonable assurance that the time is not far distant when he will come into his own. His present industrial status, if it is to be maintained at all, will be kept only by vigilance, willingness and efficiency.

Several business men of Haiti are planning to attend the next annual session of the National Negro Business League which meets in Atlanta, Ga., August 17, 18 and 19, 1921, for the purpose of presenting a plan which will result in keeping the New business of America informed concerning business opportunities in Haiti. One Haitian business merchant would change the name of the American organization to that of the International Negro Business League. The following is the opinion of a member of the National Newro Business League who is giving close study to present day economic conditions in this company: "It is a mistake to attempt to stop doing business during these stringent times. All of the business men have got to keep on doing business. It would be very unfair and a greater mistake to attempt to cut down to the last word. Of course economy is always the proper thing to practice, but the wholesale lopping off of every expense will spell ruin for many. If you live, you must let live. The profits that so many business men have shared during the winters should be used to some small extent to keep alive the business world during the readjustment moments." The farmers of Demopolis, Ala, have organized the "Black Belt Marketing Association." The purpose of the organization is to get better markets for colored producers. The fact that a new administration is coming in power may or may not be responsible for the sudden and unparalleled boom that Negro business has taken in Washington. Within the past six months at least a dozen large Negro enterprises have come into existence, foremost among them being a commercial bank to be known as the Prudential Commercial and Savings Bank, to be capitalized at $100,000. Territorry officers have been opened at 1320 Yon Street, N.W. The officers are: John R. Hawkins, president; Henry P. Shaughter, vice-president; R. H. Rutherford, treasurer, and C. W. Banton, secretary. Charters recently have been granted for two new, local Negro Business Leagues, one in Reidsville, N. C., and one in Providence, R. I. The Southern Aid Society has gone into its new building, which was recently completed at the corner of 7th and 11 Streets, N. W., Washington, D. C. The building is a five-story structure with a theatre occupying the first floor. On the second floor are the offices of the Southern Aid Society. The remainder of the handsome structure is fitted up for pro- fessional and business offices. MME. WALKER'S BIRTH HONORED BY AGENTS MME.

C. - Members of Congress returning from their brief Christmas holidays will find New Year's greetings from Washington Club Women in the form of urgent appeals for the passage of the bills pending in Congress for the welfare of women and children.

With the closing of the old year and the dawning of the new, it is well to take a survey of the gains and losses of the past in order to serve as a lesson and an inspiration for the future. The year of 1914 was a time close upon the unfulfilled obligations of the world war, enabled in a parallel reaction and the need for reinstitution on a safe and normal basis. While this transition from the booming period of war prosperity, with its inflated economic values, was bound to be painful and to hurt many in various spots, the process has not so far reached an acute stage of suffering. Nevertheless, it demands a degree of caution in every forward step and the exercises of economy and thrift in personal as well as business matters. As far as the race at large is concerned the economic prosperity conquer upon war conditions has received a check in certain sections. Labor conditions in such centres as St. Louis and Pittsburgh have been reported as slack, and there has been a tendency to lay off a certain number of workmen. This is the time when efficiency and strict attention to duty count, as the workers who have shown these qualities are those most likely to be gefilleted on the job. On the other hand the farmers in most sections have been reported as harvesting abundant crops, though the markets have not been favorable for all the commodities raised. The slump in cotton has hurt those who banked too largely on receiving a good price for this year's crop. So the prudent grower who had profitably the previous season's demand has been able to stand the strain. The wisdom of diversified crops has again been strikingly demonstrated, as the farmer who raises his own foodstuffs the most independent of civilized work- The property of the farmers and laborers during the years of the war has been reflected in a movement of commercial activity among the members of the race in many of the larger cities. Besides the multiplication of individual business enterprises, with good prospects of success, there has been an increased tendency toward cooperative business effort in the form of stock companies or corporations. Many banking, insurance and real estate concerns, which have been in operation for a definite period, have given evidence of financial stability and healthy growth. A notable symptom of this financial growth has been the influx of capital from Negro institutions in the south for investment in New York real estate. Despite the drawbacks of scarcity if housing accommodations, which has worked much individual hardship and is still one of the ugly features of the situation, the economic conditions affecting the race have vastly improved during the past few years. To retain the advantages gained and to meet the changed conditions now upon us, there is need for the cultivation of individual thrift and economy, as well as strict attention to business by every worker. Prudence should be exercised in the investment of savings, and sound financial judgment will be required of those in charge of corporate enterprises to avoid the dangers of a readjustment of values in the period of reconstruction. During this process of a return to a lower cost of living, wage reductions must also be looked for as part of the definition of values. Rents should also be readjusted to a point where they will afford the owner a fair return on his property, without prof瑟ing. In the process of local solution the Negro race is slowly working toward a solution of the problem of securing a fair deal from the American people. Despite adverse circumstances and the fact that mob law and lynching are still dominant in the Southland, there are evidences that the sentiment against the mob is growing stronger and more determined to maintain law and order. This was shown most recently in Virginia and North Carolina, where the lynchers met with armed resistance on the part of the authorities and paid for their attempt to convert the law in the death of members of the mob. Nevertheless, it is essential that the movement to protect the life and liberty of every citizen, in every part of the country, by Federal authority, be kept up to a finish. Along religious lines the past year witnessed a growing realization among the clergy of the necessity of giving the influence of the church a vital force in the building up of society. The value of the institutional community service, is coming to be so generally recognized that he presides who remain indifferent to its morals are growing fewer every year. The movement, toward organic values among the three great branches of colored Methodists, has fair to overcome in the formation of a greater church with increased possibilities for greater work. The movement for a better equipped ministry for the royal churches of the South has been stimulated by the building of parachers institute, and an encouraging attendance has been reported. The church still remains perhaps the most influential factor in racial matters and is need for its influence to be increased as a practical instrument for the betterment of manhood and womanhood. In politics the past year witnessed one of the rightmost changes of the century in the adoption of the eighteenth amendment, which gave the right to vote to the women of the country. The ultimate results of this innovation, so far as the race is concerned, are yet to be decided. In those sections where the franchise was unfettered, the women met their new responsibilities with discretion and judgment. The new voters contributed in no small measure to the overthrow of Wilsonism with its attendant evils. In municipal and state politics the race has met with both gains and reverses, the former outnumbering the latter. With the exception of Ohio, there has been an increased representation secured in the state legislatures and city councils which indicates a slow but steady growth of public sentiment in favor of a square deal in politics. Taking renewed courage from the record or the past, the people of the race should welcome the new year with undiminished spirit, in pressing forward toward their goal of achievement in all lines of honest endeavor. CHANGES IN POLITICS Wit the coming of the New Year are to be noted some striking changes in politics, which are bound to affect the welfare of the Negro, in common with the other groups of American citizenship. Among the causes for congratulation and encouragement is the growing recognition won by Negroes in politics in the North. This is denoted by the fact that in the elections of last fall thirteen men of the race were elected to men of the race were elected to membership in the various State legislatures, all of them through the aid of white voters. The States that contributed to this showing were New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Ohio, Illinois, Missouri, California and Washington. It is significant that all of these representatives were elected on the Republican ticket, except Editor I. H. Hyan of Seattle, who ran on the Farmer-Labor ticket. Added to these political gains in the field of State politics is the growth of recognition in municipal affairs. Numerous local offices have been gained through popular vote, both East and West, ranging from constable to councilman, perhaps the most notable being the membership gained in the ancient board of aldermen in the metropolis of the Western world. The next step forward in this regaining of a standing in politics for the race should be the nomination and election of Representatives to Congress from several of the Northern States. Although an effort toward this end failed in New York, because of the lack of cohesion among those who should have supported it, it is bound to be renewed with happier results. This shifting of the center of political activity among Negroes from the South to the North is bound to have further results with the coming into power of a National Republican administration this year. The Negro votes in the North went mightly to swell the overwhelming majorities that helped to bury Wilsonism in the pit of oblivion. It is only fair that these voters should have a voice in the council of advisers that the new administration will call to its aid. Now, therefore, I, Thomas Snowden, Rear Admiral, U. S. N., Military Governor of the Dominican Republic, acting under the authority and by direction of the Government of the United States, declare and announce to all concerned that the Government of the United States believes the time has arrived when it may, with a due sense of its responsibility to the people of the Dominican Republic, inaugurate the simple processes of its rapid withdrawal from the responsibilities assumed in connection with Dominican affairs. This proclamation, naturally, glosses over a great deal that is discreditable to the United States Government. The first paragraph of the proclamation speaks of the employment of American military forces within the Dominican Republic pursuant to "rights derived from the Treaty of 1907." This is more than a misstatement of fact. It is an attempt to link up what has recently taken place in Santo Domingo with the name of Theodore Roosevelt. It is an attempt to justify what has been done by the Wilson administration by seeking to convey the impression that it was all merely a continuance of a policy laid down and begun by the Roosevelt administration. These voters should be prepared to voice their demands with the dignity due the occasion and the determination born of their numbers and position. Assured of the justness of their demand for a fair deal for the race throughout the Nation, they have to insist on the administration redemining the pledges made during the campaign. The chief thing is for the Congress and the executive to pass the legislation required to ensure protection to every citizen, by making lynching and mob law a federal offense; to enforce the fourteenth, fifteenth and nineteenth amendments by appropriate legislation and to abolish all jim crow railroad determination that exists first class fare in return for cattle car service. The United States, in the administration of President Roosevelt, did make a treaty with Santo Domingo, but it was entirely a diplomatic arrangement by which this Government accepted responsibility for the collection of the Dominican customs and their application to the payment of the foreign debt of that republic. For this purpose American fiscal agents were sent to Santo Domingo. The treaty did not provide for nor did it contemplate military occupation. Representation in the Federal service and the going away with segregation in the departments should not be forgotten, but the vital question of first importance is the legislation against lynching, disfranchise and incarceration. It was in November, 1916, under the Wilson administration, that the United States landed armed forces in Santo Domingo and took over all the functions of government. The American Occupation immediately tried to force the Dominican Government to negotiate a treaty that would make the American military occupation technically legal, at least. This the Dominicans absolutely refused to do. They have had to endure foreign military rule, but they have never sanctioned it even by a treaty signed under duress. And thus it is that American military rule in Santo Domingo not only had no moral justification, but had not even a shadow of legal justification. There are among the changes that political wisdom demands A writer in the World's Work for December, in describing the wealth of Harlem Negroes, gave the following figures: Negro holdings in Harlem today exceed $100,000,000 within the territory bounded by 150th street. Eighth Avenue, 100th street and the Harlem river. Numbersless Negroes own their own dwellings or apartments, representing in the aggregate many millions of dollars. There are four known millionaires, ten half millionaires, and more than a score worth more than $100,000. The savings banks holdings in the district are put at $300,000,000, and two of those banks are owned by Negroes. Nor can we accept as sincere the statement that the United States is now ready to withdraw because it has achieved its "friendly purpose". The withdrawal from Santo Domingo is in reality a reflex of the Haitian inquiry. The expose of conditions in Haiti centerer the attention of the country and, indeed, of the world on the Wilson administration with its preachments about the "self-determination of small nations" and the "rights of weak peoples". The Latin-American countries to the south of us knew the facts, but when they were given publicity in the United States their newspapers joined in the general chorus and spoke out more loudly and more bitterly than ever before. Secretary of State Colby is now in South America. He cannot without understatement say the people of South America while the politics of what we just in line with still ringing in their ears. As the Negro population of Harlem is put at 150,000, the per capita of wealth would be about 5666. The totals are unmistakably inflated at that. Nevertheless the capital controlled by Negroes by living in groups of potential goodwill a document of information of the wrong to present and the likely expiration to present. Of course the Commission will not care a lot about the wording of the proclamation, whether it is misleading or a misstatement of fact or care. What they will be interested in is the getting bank of such information. No doubt the Haitians will be puzzled by the fact that it is the Dominicans who are the first benefit of the revelation made of conditions in Haiti. Third the survival reasons why it is so. In the first place, the position of the United States is legally less vulnerable in Santo Domingo than it is in Haiti. The Dominicans would never, not even under the greatest pressure, suggested any instrument that would in the least degree ratify the acts of the armed forces of the United States in Santo Domingo. They simply stood pat. It is true that the convention that the Haitians signed was signed at the point of the plate, but, nevertheless, it was signed. And although that convention does not provide for or contemplate the military occupation of Haiti, if did give the Americans a sort of legal excuse. So the Wilson administration turms loose the least tenable position first. But there are other reasons, which the Haitians cannot be expected to be familiar with. The exposure of conditions in Haiti became not only a public question in the United States, it became a political issue. It was only natural that the Republicans would seize upon and use an issue so well suited to the campaign against the apostle of "self-determination" and the "rights of small nations". The Republicans said nothing, or very little about Sauto Domingo, because they did not have the last fresh. It is only in line with President Wilson's temper and disposition that he would let Haiti remain in the chains of imperialistic slavery for the rest of the life of this terrestrial globe before he would free her in seeming answer to a clamor raised by the Republican Party. THE OUTLOOK FOR DISARMAMENT. After considering the League of Nations from a good many angles, it appears to us that there is only one way in which it can bring about the abolishment of war, and that is by bringing about the disarmament of the big nations. If these nations do not have guns and bombs and poison gas and liquid fire they cannot fight; that is, they cannot fight in a way that will do much damage. But so long as they retain these implements of war and destruction there is always a possibility of conflict. One of the factors in the making of war which has not been sufficiently considered is the temptation to military experts to "try out" the instruments which they have invented and perfected. They are continually under the pressure of curiosity to see how the thing will work. Take these dangerous toys out of the hands of the military boys, and a long step will be made toward the abolishment of war. . . So long as the nations are armed to the teeth, not all the admonitions, exhortations, golden rules, prohibitions or threats that may be written into a League of Nations will be of any effect whenever an armed nation feels that they run counter to its interests. It will be only after disarmament that an international court of justice can be made to function effectively. The idea of disputing nations going into court armed is just as absurd as the idea of disputing individuals going into court armed; they might effect a settlement, but they are just as likely to end the proceedings by shouting each other up. The big nations know that they cannot end war without disarming, but fear and suspicion of each other and the ambition and greed of each one keep them from taking the plunge. And yet it appears that England is willing to take a step forward. But as always, England is the wily old lion. She realizes that unless some limitations are put on naval construction she will soon be outclassed by the United States or forced into bankruptcy. Japan, too, feels that, burdened as she is, she must continue to build ships as long as the United States does. So Japan would like to see a limitation put on naval construction in order to be saved from bankruptcy. France is the only one of the great powers that seems bent on militarism to the bitter end. But then France is not concerned about naval supremacy. Unlike England and Japan, she is not worried by the pace set by the United States; so she makes no overtures for limitation on the building of warships. France is thinking only about having an army great enough to hold Germany always at bay. And the land forces of neither England, Japan or the United States give her any cause for alarm. The United States hold the key to the situation. England and Japan would both stop building warships if the United States would stop. And the three could put a curb on France. But the United States makes no move. Daniels and Baker are contending for greater preparation than they contended for just prior to our entry into the war. This course seems quite inconsistent for two members of the official family of the man who fathered the League of Nations and is the winner of the Nobel Peace Prize. It looks as though they are trying to impress the country with the necessity of taking on a big burden of armament and paying for it because we did not join the League. England and Japan are only waiting for the word from the United States and she can say it in the League or out of it. A NEW PATTERN TO BE HIST. There is a new danger being released pusillim in Northern cities, especially the large industrial centres. Business depression has brought about curtailment in employment, and released laborers and workers are the first to be made victims of this curtailment. But there are some other issues besides the natural curtailment that has followed the artificial expansion of war time. News from Buffalo, Cleveland and Detroit shows that a delicate office is being made to get rid of the colored worker in many lines. Just what these forces are and where they originate is yet to be found out. It is not improbable that they are behind a plan to compel the majority of colored men and women who migrated North during the war to return South. Whatever the causes may be, the condition is one which must be met with intelligence and energy by colored people in all northern cities. This can be done only through organized effort. In all northern cities where these conditions prevail or are likely to prevail colored organizations should at once get in touch with the proper mythologies and keep their fingers on the situation. And above all, the action of such organizations should be united. A precaution of this kind will be found especially useful in the question of crime, which is sure to arise in most of these communities. When men are suddenly thrown out of employment there naturally follows a "crime wave". Now, all the great cities of the North are suffering from "crime waves", and the criminals are white men. The police are struggling as best they can to preserve safety and order; nevertheless, they are dealing with the situation by methods wholly within the established police powers. But let two or three of these crimes be committed by colored men, and you will hear cries of "Run the Negroes out of town!" and even cries of "Lynch 'em! Lynch 'em!" With such cries as these ringing in the people's ears, not even the most honest and respectable colored people will be safe. This latter is a danger we should prepare at once to meet. NO CHANCE FOR MISINTERPRETATION. William J. Simmons, Imperial Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, picked up the newspapers a few days ago in Atlanta, Ga., and read that Chief Assistant District Attorney Alfred J. Talley had addressed a few remarks to him and his Klan. The Imperial Wizard at once got on the wires for the purpose of calling Mr. Talley to account or giving him a chance to repudiate the interview which he was reported as giving out. The Wizard sent a telegraphic query to Mr. Talley as to whether he (Mr. Talley) had been correctly quoted when in an interview he referred to the Klan as "narrow-chested bigots" and stated "there is no room for them in New York." Mr. Talley sent the following reply: "I was correctly quoted and my remarks were directed specifically at your organization." Nothing further has been heard from Wizard Simmons on this end. We hope he is satisfied with the clearness of the reply he received. So far as we can see there is no chance for misinterpreting it. THE EVACUATION OF SANTO DOMINGO. On the day befroe Christmas President Wilson ordered a relaxation of American military rule in Santo Domingo as an initial step toward the complete withdrawal of all American military forces and the full restoration of self-government to the Dominican people. The text of the proclamation which the President has directed Admiral Snowden to issue reads as follows: Whereas, the friendly purposes of the United States in the employment, pursuant to rights derived from the Treaty of 1907, of its military forces within the Dominican Republic for the restoration of public order and the protection of life and property have been substantially achieved, and Whereas, it has always been the desire and intention of the Government of the United States to withdraw its aid as soon as it could do so consistently with the said purposes and as soon as the improved condition in Santo Domingo to which the United States has sought to contribute should give promise of permanence: VALUE OF CITIZENSHIP. VALUE OF CITIZENSHIP. The value of American citizenship has not at all times been truly estimated, by those to whom that privilege has been offered. Its worth has been diminished at time, by the failure of the administration in power to guarantee its intrinsic value and to protect the holder of it in his rights and privileges, whether at home or abroad. Despite these drawbacks citizenship in the great American republic is a right if inestimable value, and with a true American government behind it, it not to be lightly accorded nor lightly waived. Many a resident of foreign birth who permanently locates here and is eligible to become a citizen, fails to avail himself of the privilege. Some of this class of people cling to their former allegiance from reasons of sentiment or to avoid the obligations that go with citizenship, such as jury duty and military service. Others avoid the responsibility of citizenship out of pure indifference. to become citizens. Senator Seldon's declaration should show them the value of citizenship as confirming their status in the country in which they have made their homes. FIGHTING AGAINST DISEASE: The fight against disease and sickness is one that demands eternal vigilance, and all the aids that medical science can devise. One of the most essential elements in this conscious conflict is competent medical treatment and intelligent care in nursing. Experience has showed that it is far easier to secure the services of a skilled physician than to get the kind of nursing that many cases require. And the nursing often counts for more than the medicine: There are several nurse training schools that are turning our every year a certain number of trained nurses of the race, but so great is the demand that the supply does not seem to be able to cope with it. In this emergency the Cagle for Negro Relief has assumed the responsibility of aiding to furnish nurses in various communities where their need has been most strikingly demonstrated. Arrangement will be made for such payments as may come within the meant of the program requiring such help, with provision for the balance to be made by the circle. The value of assistance of this nature to be afforded families and individuals sorriden by disease and sickness cannot be overestimated. The circle is so consummated so to become an effective instruction in rendering relief of this position alone. It should be supplemented by particular intermediation from the public by providing such a necessary service to the sick. the danger, the circle is lightening the danger of sick or disease is allowed to spread, will increase the whole commi- nities. Sickness and disease are the most indis- ficious factors that the workers have to toms. They not only rob them of their health and vigor, but deprive them of the means of support. All efforts to lemon the ravages of disease, which receive the healthy support of workers and employers, as well as the community at large. The offices of the Cortejo de Negro Relief are at 400 Sibu and Miss Belk Davis is the efficient In- operative Secretary. QUALITY IN NEWS SERVICE The question of how the new newspaper can best serve the community in which it is published is one that will engage the attention of the reader as well as the publishers. Consider the situation has been directed during the past year to the part played by Newspapers in the development of consciousness and the movement of public utterment along all lines of progress. While the general result of our newspapers has largely improved this conclusion, there still remains for improvement in the quality of our service rendered. There is a demand on the part of the thinking members of the society less display in the matter of unleashing crimes of violence and murder of a morbid or scandalous nature play reading matter of the discussion on the first page, with starting point of bold type, may create a centre and attract the notice of the reader and thoughtless readers. But the more effect of giving the detail of murders and divorce suits, with principal of all the attendant circumstances, is not for the best interests of the reader. Too often repeated, the first kind of repulsion toward depravity is the side and the familiarity with the side of humanity may lead to murders of such deeds through the myriad force of suggestion. At times it may be necessary to conscientious publisher to provide students of a criminal nature as a source of news, but such accounts should be couched in such terms as to prevent criminal of any elements tending toward hero worship. The purpose should rather to create an abhorrence for and build up a sentiment for the punishment of its perpetrators, a well showing the futility of effort to attain its consequences. The best service that the race can can render is to try to build up constructive effort for the welfare of the community. It is gratifying to know that most of our papers in every section of the country are doing this. They should receive the material investment of the community in the race efforts they are making to bring about better conditions of living. The people can soon bring about the kind of new paper service that they want to build up the papers that help to up the community. A newspaper as a rule serves a moral mirror of the community from which it derives its support. To fulfill the community, it should reflect all phases of community progress. Sometimes the mistake is made of too much attention to one phase of activity, with a corresponding lack of attention to other things. Social affairs may receive an undue amount of attention when there should be greater laid on commercial development and structural effort for the betterment of the community. The highest degree of newspaper service would be to give additional treatment to all phases of race and to seek to inspire the community of its readers with a sense of duty and responsibilities. Let the readers of the race pay attention to the quality of service their newspapers are giving them.

Azalia Hackley is now in California, and regular will of her preparation for the first Negro Belt Song Festival the graphs of California, California will hear on January 24, when two hundred singers of that city will appear at the Municipal Auditorium. The San Francisco Chronicle reported the following news story of Miss. Hackley's work in connection with Funk Song festivals throughout the country: O'Dalton—With a chorus of 200 singers who will present only the songs of the colored race, the first Negro folk song festival will be presented to the members of the city in the Municipal Auditorium on January 24. These fellow festivals have been systematically organized throughout the country by Mrs. A. Hackley of the Chicago National Vocal Community School. The Coppin Club has sponsored the effort, hoping that a permanent community chorus may be organized that will present similar festivals. Where these festivals have been given, according to Mrs. Hackley, they have attracted the attention of musicians and music lovers of both sexes and are favorable community work has followed through their beneficial effect. This college is at present rehearsing at the African Methodist Church on Fifteenth street for this most pretentious effort in the musical life of the colored people of Oakland. The Normal Vocal Institute, of which Mrs. Hackley is a director, is a community school situated at 2019 Calumet avenue, Chicago. It follows gentleman aims for teaching fundamental voice culture, deep breathing and the understanding and appreciation of good music. Class instruction is free. All are welcome to attend these classes, which open June 1, and close January 31. During other months the director visits other communities to organize choral societies and folk song festivals and to stimulate musical study.

Through booklets and other printed matter, she says hundreds of others have been reached and church congregations have been taught how to use their voices. Given Life to Work. Hackley has given her life to the spreading of her race chiefly through her love of music. Her life being born in Detroit. She married a Southern woman about two years after the Civil War, who freed slaves and continued to teach until in her turn, Mrs. Hackley has traveled from city method of teaching music among the people until, about 1000 in one year. During festival the music of the race, from the sound of the prize compositions of colored composers and very hard to get the first folk song fest today, 'because so many of the race do not like the songs. If I can get the stamp mountains and make this first festival a success, permanent organization to carry on this festival rather in other communities.' "Mrs. Hackley has given her life to the spreading of useful knowledge among her race, chiefly through her love of music. Her mother was from the North being born in Detroit. She married a Southern man and went to Tennessee to live about two years after the Civil War, where she opened a school for the freed slaves and continued to teach until the birth of her daughter. In her turn, Mrs. Hackley has traveled from city to city, spreading her method of teaching music among the people until, it is said, she has reached about 10,000 in one year. "At the opening festival the music of the race, from the plantation melodies, is one of the prize compositions of colored composers, will be given. I am not very hard to get the first folk song festival started," said Mrs. Hackley today, "because so many of the race do not appreciate the beauty value of the songs. If I can get the stamp of approval from leading mountains and make this first festival a success, perhaps we may have a permanent organization to carry on this festival, which has been a feature in other communities." Rudolph Grant in Vocal Recital; --- longtime acquaintance with Rudolph Grant, in the work as pianist, organist, composer and tenor, during December 11st, did I have an opportunity to perform as soloist. On this occasion advance announcement was received by Rudolph Grant, tenor, at Salem M. Church at this church that Mr. Grant is employed in attaching to this recital was accentuated by work done by the singer along other musical lines as to whether he would measure up vocalistics as pianist, organist and teacher. It was unfortunate that have been contracted just the week previous to the recital which clearly and definitely hampered Mr. Grant offered ample opportunity—in fact, it would have opened vocal equipment than Mr. Grant. Salem was an ideal setting for a singer. Acoustic conditions in the setting is low and studded with joists and of foam and interrupted passage. Voice is not an organ of great power, but it is. He handles it with authority and assurance and the commission is a joy to the hearer. The hand is intertwined with his work and at the same time difficult to judge of the true voice quality. One effect that Mr. Grant's voice belongs in the small vocal chamber is the organist at St. Mark's M. E.

There was a queer and hard-to-understand the right note—both failures coming in to the score, and on repetitions of the same passage. Mr. Grant's songs, "La Serenata" by Bragg and "Monterranda," Mr. Weir was superb in these nuances of understanding and spirit. Program in its entirety was as follows: Engleh, with violin obbligato—(from Don Grosvenni (Mozart) Mr. GRANT I have had a longtime acquaintance with Rudolph Grant, and a certain firmness with work as pianist, organist, composer and teacher, but not until December 2011, did I have an opportunity to hear Mr. Grant in his musical solist. On this occasion advance announcements had predated by Rudolph Grant, tenor, at Salem M. E. Church, West Village, at this church that Mr. Grant is employed as organist-choirmaster. The interest attaching to this recital was accentuated by the knowledge of experience done by the singer along other musical lines, and there was a strong tendency as to whether he would measure up socially to the standard of the pianist organist and teacher. It was unfortunate that a severe old man had been contracted just the week previous to the recital, as this produced a condition which clearly and definitely hampered Mr. Grant's efforts. The Grammy offered ample opportunity—in fact, it would have served a singer cleaner or opulent vocal equipment than Mr. Grant. Salem auditorium lacks full room for an ideal setting for a singer. Acoustic conditions could hardly be the ceiling is low and studded with joists and of course tone wastes have been used and interrupted passage.

The handicap of hoarseness interested with his work and at the same time created an element difficult to judge of the true voice quality.

Fisk University Singers were in New York recently taken part in the unveiling of tablins in memory to the late General Charles B. Fisk, founder of Fisk University, and Mrs. Fisk. The tablins are placed in the Modern Avenue M. E. Church and the unveiling ceremony was held Sunday, December 6th. General and Mrs. Fisk were members of the church. The Fisk Quartet sang splendently, as led by M. H. McMahon and their music was a feature of the exercise. The tablet to Gen Fisk was made by a Printer, Mrs. Mary Fisk Farsh and the one to Mrs. Fisk was made by Mr. Mary Farsh and Wendy Cormers taking part in the ceremonies were Bishop John J.

Louise Scott, soprano Comment By The Age Editors On Sayings Of Other Editors communication. Find the expense or expense of these colleges fall in importance all Negroes from time to time regardless for contribution, for one purpose another are sent to colored men throughout the state and never refuse to contribute. This fact will show that the Negro is not derelict until data to be collected must not to the interest of the children who are most largely affected. These schools and colleges are pounding up from the necessity for schools of higher educational purposes, supplement the unequal distribution of funds and the inequitable distribution of funds contributed money that comes to the state. Much has been done by the Negroes of the South by self-denial and sacrifices to furnish their children with the education denied by the State. In some instances even the money contributed by the Natal Government has been appertained solely among the school, for whites. The Topstaff (Kan.) Disinhibitor commanded the opening of a night school at the school. The National Equal Rights League of Boston has appealed to Kit, Osmund G. Villard and his committee of one hundred, after it has finished probing the troubles in Ireland, to hear evidence on the prosecution, persecution and killings of the colored citizens in the United States. This double investigation would constitute a deadly indictment of the two great English speaking powers of the globe, second only to the charges made against Germany in its treatment of Belgium. The Savannah Journal contends that the educational condition of the Negro at the South is seriously overdrawn, owing to the fact that there is not an equitable division of funds set aside for educational purposes. It adds: to meet the great demand for linetype operators, commercial printers, printing office foremen and vocational instructors. This course of instruction will be under the direction of a supervising teacher of the Kansas Industrial and Educational Institute. Ten young men have already enrolled for the course. This points the way to the opening of new opportunities for the youth of the race. "I invest in yourself" is the injunction of the Denver (Colo.) Statesman, which it restores in the following strain: Young man, now is the time to invest in yourself. We care not how wealthy your parents may be now; it may all disappear just when you need it most. None with your academic training take up a trade or two also. It may come in handy some day, whether you are a preacher, lawyer or doctor. It is a good and safe investment for the future. Stead yourself now, and you will not be dependent in later years. Take stock of yourself each day and see whatever you have gained or lost, and by so doing you will find the habit a good investment. There are many parents who are to blame for the absolute failure of their children. They have allowed them to grow up perfectly ignorant and helpless. No education, no trade, no profession, and when misfortune comes along and they are thrown upon their own resources, they break down at the first effort. They have been taught only to spend money. What benefit are they to a community? Such unfortunates are but a burden to society. Give us the young man or woman who has had the wisdom to invest in themselves and prepare while young to become useful citizens. There is sound sense in this advice, which is inspired by the changing conditions of modern civilization. Commenting on the establishment of literature schools in Oregon by an act of the legislature, the St. Paul Society said: The article in the Examiner shows that the land is not without its shortest mile, a purple jum-crow colored people are to be found too frequently in the country, both north and south, and who are the greatest stumbling blocks to our permanent progress. We are invited to say, Forgive them, Lord, for the know not what they do, but the death will not get his dur until he gets a lot of them within his territory domain, where they surely deserve to go. If this arrangement means that the armed people favored the separate institution, it may be regarded as not without justification. Neworth, the metropolis of New York, has claim to a colored city, named the 3rd ward, in the "Hill" district. The New York observer says: "Labor to the great migration of our people from the South, this part of the city was inhabited by Jews, but at the joining of the Negroes, the Jews removed to other parts, and now the colored people reign supreme. It is not so much because this is a colored section that attention is focused upon it, but because of the marvelous and unparalleled business development and the acquirement of fine homes and business-properties by our people. The story of Harlem repeated on a smaller scale. "I want to see the time come when there will be no lynching in Oklahoma—why do not the white people applaud this statement?" said Governor Roberts of Oklahoma, in addressing an interracial conference in the chamber of the House of Representatives. He continued: "The Negroes do, why not you? This is a bad situation when men will not indorse such a statement, and I want to say here and now that the fellow who carries a red flag up and down the street and whom we name a hobbesist, is not hear no dangerous to democratic forms of government as the fellow who will set as a juror in a court and command and applaud the actions of a mob." That's the sort of doctrine the executive authorities of all the Southern States should affirm and enforce. The following casual comment on the need of an educated ministry, is published in the National Baptist Voice over the name of Nannie H, Burroughs: "There should be an output of at least five hundred highly qualified Baptist men every year, for the next twenty years, and just that number of jack lords should be given picks and shovels, or three acres of land and a moke and led back to the farm to take up the work so which the were called."

The Florida Sentinel, in noting the spirit prevailing in Jacksonville to celebrate Emancipation Day, contends that as far as the South is concerned, the day brought almost as much to the poor white people as it did to the enslaved black man. It explains: The reign of caste, which was dominant in all life previous to the emancipation, found its fall with the passage of that act. Free schools for all of the people were unknown in ante-bellum days in the South. Such a thing as equal opportunity and a square deal for all men were mere pipe dreams. The day represents also the new epoch of the nation, when the nation abandoned its sins of over two centuries. It should be closed among the national holidays. In time the white South may come to realize the good that came to it out of the abolition of slavery, but the time is not yet. The colored race are entitled to a square deal along all lines, and while they are not yet on the hill tops, but do expect and, in the name of justice, and before Almighty God, that President-elect Harding will record worthy colored Republicans of the South as well as North, East and West when the distribution of that big G.

GRANT LODGE WRITE: MIS: OLEA GRAN BOATING AND BATHING WELL AND PARTIES ACCOMMODATES THIS WEB NEW BOOK THE STAGE AND ATHLETICS "The Symbol of the Unconquered" and Musical Program Unique Lafayette Bill THIS week's bill at the Lafayette Theatre reminds one of the brand of entertainment usually provided by the Strand, Rivoli and other leading New York picture houses. There is a run feature photo play, including well-known favorites, with a musical program as would please the most illudious. The chief attraction is Oscar Micheaux's latest photo. "The Symbol of the Unconquered." The race photo play is here to stay; furthermore, it is destined to be one of the strongest magnets in colored theatricals. As a concrete example of its alluring powers, go to the Lafayette Theatre, see the large audiences assembled and note the unbounded enthusiasm. Unlike the similarity of presentations depicted on the stage on screen in which the Negro appears in the principal role the scenes of "The Symbol of the Unconquered" are laid in the great Northwest. The tight of a young colored man to retain possession of valuable oil lids and a romance in which he figure with a colored girl with whom he has fallen desperately in love and mistakes for white are the basis for the thematic construction of the picture. As in nine cases out of ten the groves instinctively recognize one of their own, some are apt to wonder why he did not learn the truth sooner. However, the raising of such a point does not in any way distract from the general excellence of the picture. The production of The Symbol Lottie Gee, "Princess Mysteria" and "Woman's Man" at Lafayette Lottie. Gee, "Princess Mysteria" and "Woman's Man" on Jan. 3 Bill at Lafayette. Motion pictures, vaudeville and a dash of drama will be the theatrical medley presented the patrons of the Lafayette Theatre commencing Monday, January 5. Miss Lottie Gee, recently returned from Europe and who is now one of the stars with the Quality Amusement Corporation, will appear in her latest creations and render several visual collections as she alone can. Another act which is nothing more than ordinary interest in vaudeville is *Prince's Mystery* who is becoming renowned as a mind reader and is one of the latest exponents of spiritualism. "Prince's Mystery" has a notished many with her occult powers and her managers preach that he her coming to Harlem will be nothing short of a sensation. There will be four other entertaining acts on the bill. The picture picture will be *Romanian Fielding in "Woman's Man."* The story starts in Arizona and trails into New York City. It is not a Western picture. Although it begins in the West it quickly moves into Manhattan and becomes a drama with rich settings and scenery with fashionable New York is its background. There will be a midnight show at the Lafayette Friday evening of this week. TOWN TOPICS AT THE PUTNAM NEXT WEEK Brooklyn theatregoers will be given a big theatrical treat next week when Town Topics, the musical show which has been playing in New York, Philadelphia, and Washington with great success, will be at the Tuttam Theatre, commencing Monday, January 3. Gulfport and Brown, Gertrude Saunders and other favorites, together with beauty chorus, will help make the week a gala one. LINCOLN THEATRE TO SHOW GREAT PICTURE Fire at sea, fraught with terrors beyond all other experiences of mankind. The horror is intensified when the burning vessel is a passenger ship bearing women and children, and still further when it is known that the fire is being to be hend to cover up another fire. All these elements are present in *Dead Men Tell No Tales*, a story crime, adventure and love by E. W. Wyching, author of "Raffles," edited for motion picture purposes by Mr. and Mrs. George Randolph Chester. It has been employed as a spectacular and thrilling Terry production by Illustrated *Dead Men Tell No Tales* will be shown at the Lincoln Theater on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. --- of the Unconquered" is most timely in that it graphically shows up the evils of the Ku Klux Klan. The biggest moments of the photo play are when the night riders are annihilated, a colored man with bricks being a big factor. Walker Thompson and Iris Hall are the hero and heroine, respectively who after many hardships and thrilling experiences, live happily ever after. Lawrence Chenault as the villain, Leigh Whipper, Jim Burris, E. G. Tatum and George Catlin are others who show to advantage in the picture. The photography of "The Symbol of the Unconquered" compares favorably with screen successes put on by leading producers and interest is sustained throughout the eight reels. Special music is played for the occasion by the Lafayette Theatre Orchestra. The Exposition Tour, a big time act, which is living up to its reputation, and Eugene Mars Martin, violin soloist, gave class to the program. The presence on the bill of oligogene Mars Martin, the youthful violinist, is worthy of special mention. Aside from the fact that the audience unmisakably show appreciation for high class music when tendered with intelligence and skill the incident should mark the beginning of a closer relationship between the Lafayette Theatre and such institutions as the Smith-Martin School, where talented young musicians of both sexes receive instruction. Miss Hazel Thomas, a promising pianist, served as accompanist to the young violinist ARTHUR ALLEN DISMUKE Concert, Theatrical and Dance Promoger Australian gold was the lure which led in the formation in the mind of Santo Joepim Santo, a villainous Spanish adventurer, a plot which unleashed the destruction of a passenger ship and the death of all on board. In mind of the gold thieves accused with desire for the precious gold and they worked and tonight carefully to possess themselves of the treasure. The mind of Santos was engaged by the horde of seizing chests of the purified gold, bound for England on装箱, but it was not imitated. That mind was the mind of an orphaned gold, defender of Ritter, to live with Santos' best friend daughter Eva, and overcome his persecution against entering into a plot to steal the gold. Santos did not dare tell Rattery that his plan included the murder of the passengers and crew of the Lady Jeremy though his own dark mind came to the principle that "dead men tell no tales." He told his gentleness associate in crime that all were to be landed on an island after the theft of the gold and the firing of the ship. Instead, Santos and his villainous associates on the Lady Jeremy hooded bodies on the bottom of one of the lifeboats are cut the davitapes of the other freely through. The gold was stored in the captain's gig before the fire was started in the hold of the Lady Jeremy. The burning of the ship, and the desperate struggles of passengers and crew to escape the deadful fate prepared for them, form several of the many spectacular scenes in "Dead Men Tell No Tales."

Then Willie Harris of Brotherhoods, who was substituted at this time for Louis Evans, made a basket from the middle of the field, and continued to quake long shots, some of them from two-thirds of the court, until he had completed seven as pretty shots, as have never seen so many any court. This 10-foot fool failed to reach 25; while the Flashes had only shaded 3 goals bringing their score up to 21.

NORTHWEST Voice, Piano, Harp, Guitar, Drums and Band Instruments HILL OF BOGLIES BAY OF HATTERLEY Baltimore, Md.-On Monday night in the Big Market Armory, the Athletians, formerly Baltimore, Y- defeated the fast Carlinde "5" of Washington. The game scheduled was to be between the Athletians and Ohio Collegiate. It was not until Sunday, December 20th, when it became known that the latter club had broken its contract that in order to fill the bill the Carlinde quinnet was caled upon over night. Through much trouble and scouting they managed to get the team together. The first half was full of excitement and thrills. In four minutes of play, Hill, star forward of Carlihee, who gave the Spartan Braves a big surprise in New York on Thanksgiving night, had scored five, of his teams seven points. With the score 7-3 for Carlihee, Hill was painfully injured when he was felled by one of the Athenian players. With the game only five minutes old he was forced to retire. The back of reserves put Carlihee in a bad predicament. The first half ended 15-13 for Athenians. With the second half under way and Hill unable to play, the Carlisle machine had been broken. They seemed to lack the dash and grit that was in evidence throughout the first half. The Baltimore boys, feeling themselves lucky, started a fastidie of long shots. They made long shots seemingly at will. With the score 21-17 for Athenians the Carlisle "S" fought doggedly to stave off the unexpected attack. The score went up to 27-19 for the home team and with 3 minutes to play the visitors scored two more points while the home team registered 5. The final score of 20-21 was like a revelation to the vast crowd that jammed the big army. The team that played Spartan to a tie in New York and decisively defeated, New York "Y" and Philadelphia, "Y," was trimmed by a team that had not played a game this season. In the preliminary game the Carlisle girls defeated their strongest rivals, the Athenian girls, formerly the Orioles, to the time of 17.8. Minor and Winston played a fast forward while Duffy and Joyce put up an airtight defense. CARLISLE WINS XMAS GAME FROM PHILA. "Y" Washington, D. C.—On Christmas day at the Coliseum the Carlisle "5" of Washington defeated the crack Philadelphia, J. M. C. A., score 51-21. Displaying the same spirit shown in New York during the Thanksgiving week they plainly showed their superiority over the Quaker. City boys. We visitors had some good team work and displayed a brand of basketball that is not seen in the average team, but it was the guarding of Wright and Barbour that told on the visitors. Taylor and Hill, the two Carlisle forwards that form the perfect combination, were too much for the visitors. Taylor caged the first basket in 30 seconds of play. Throughout the game Hill scored at will. He alone, caged as many field During the game he scored 6 field goals on the entire Philadelphia team, kets. Tibbs, the lanky center for Carlisle, was the pilot around which the home team worked in a machine-like manner. His style of play completely baffled the visitors. The first half ended 58-11 for Carlisle. At the beginning of the second half the "Y" team displayed reviewed effort. With the score 18-10 for Carlisle they were nearer their rivals than at any time during the game. It was here that the shooting of Tibbs and Hill enabled the home upon to register a dll the visitor. Clean sportman actrized the contest. SQRANTON, PA Seration, a.-Rey. Herbert M. Seymour of College University, Hamilton N. W. is spending the Christmas holiday with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ch. C.

CHICAGO'S INCREASED COLORED POPULATION (Special to TAN New York Ace) Washington, D. C. The Director of the Census today issued a preliminary statement of the white and Negro population of Chicago, Illinois, as shown by the Census taken as of January 1, 1900. The population of Chicago, as revised September 27, 1920, was 270,705, compiling 2,589,104 whites, 109,994 Negroes, and 3,807 others (Chinese, Japanese, and Indians). The figures for 1910 were whites, 2,139,057; Negroes, 44,103; others, 2,123. The white population constituted 95.8 per cent of the total in 1920 and 97.9 A useful as well as a helpful present to a friend will be a year's subscription to The New York Age. 230 West 135th Street New York City Of the total population of Chicago in 1920, the males number 1,370,364, or 50.7 per cent, and the females, 1,331,541, or 49.3 per cent. In 1910 we correspond- ing figures were—males, 1,324,364, or 51.5 per cent; females 1,099,519, or 48.5 per cent. The ratio of males to females was 102.9 to 100 in 1920, as against 106.5 to 100 in 1910. TWO KINDS "Do all of your employees talk baseball, horsesracing and prize fighting?" "No, some of them talk but trimming, hair dressing and dancing." Now I know that there are people who pull girls and call it "bull" when a bunch of cooly white girls get into an electric car, but will fail her wrinkles and "shocked" if two colored girls speak to each other much above a whipper. But that is not our feeling here. The case of rodents which we shall call antizones is so much on eagle not to be tolerated from any person of any race or any kind. These persons happened to be colored—and more is in the city, for other colored people. Light or two young educated man, from 20 to 28 years of age, got into the elevated steps at Lilith street and Right avenue, going north. They came in like a storm, literally pushing others out—not in a bishopless good humor, but with downward overhearing and even bumpy dismuse. They yelled at the witnesses, they beamed about how much, "good whiskey" they had in their stomach or in their claetm, they ordered the brideman on "still that door"; they stared and stuck out their chants. And right under my two great hips with open arms they picked at and manhandled and baited the white daemoners. AND IF I HAD READ THAT NEXT DAY IN A DAILY PAPER I WOULD HAVE SAID IT WAS A LIE—if I had not whispered it. It was Christmas Day, but those fellows were not drunk, not a single one of them. They were just foolies—and they were in Harlem, where colored folks are at least as safe as any other kind. But most colored people are not so foolish, and don’t much folly. They have seen so much of cowardly swagger and the bullying of brute superiority, that they never want to be guilty of it—in Harlem or elsewhere. Even if there were just one white man left on the continent, they could not do the many things of bering him. I got out of this car and I do not know to what further extremes this swagger went, nor how long it was tolerated. But for once in my life I felt like complaining the whites in the car for their tolerance and self-control. I do know that the great sentiment of the colored American, in Harlem and elsewhere, would not endorse what I observed in the behavior of these young men of their race. I do not know who these To do so would mean called fly-white delegations to the Republican National Convention in 1904 from all of the Southern States, and as this closest fought the forces that prompted Senator Harding it is not likely that they would have a kindly feeling for the "Old Guard." It must also be remembered that the forces behind the fly-white invaded Ohio against all polygons they would have a kindly feeling for the "Old Guard." It must also be remembered that the forces behind the fly-white invaded Ohio against all political offices and ridden to round up the delegation from that State for General Wood as against here favorite gun. I have so much faith in the republication of the "Old Guard" to take any stock in this fly-white propagation. SEVENTH YEARLY SUBSCRIPTION.
