J. Summons, who was once a Merriam preacher, is located on the top floor of 212 Auburn avenue. This office is called the "Autie" and on the outside of the door leading to the general assembly room is painted a large glaring eye which stares at all corners as they ascend the stairway. In a declaration taken from the Constitution occurs the following significant paragraph: "We solemnly declare to all mankind that the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, incorporated, is the original, genuine Ku Klux Klan organized in the year 1890, and active during the Reconstruction period of American history; and by and under its new corporate name is revived, reconstructed, remodeled, refined and expanded into a fraternal, patriotic, ritualistic society of national scope, duly incorporated under the laws of the State of Georgia, in the years of 1915 and 1916, for the same spiritual purposes as it originally had."

In the rush of managers to secure this great picture, the Lafayette management, by playing an unusually large figure, was successful in procuring this great masterpiece over all others.

Georgia that all the agents from and raided murder. Mr. Alexander is a Georgian, a native of Atlanta. He has been United States District Attorney for some years, serving in the federal courts presided over by Judge Emory Spencer. His statement indicated that under the incoming administration of the Sheriff-elect Harding and Governor-elect Hardwick a concerted effort will be made by federal and state officers to begin liftwise investigation of the situation involving Mr. Alexander, declare the comparatively little doubt as being made in the press to and the condition of the large proportion of the third judicial measure in the case.

They operate in every state, and 2180 of the 2033 countie shows 899 acrees and valued at ONE BILL MILLION DOLLARS. Whether their number is yet to be determined, but it may be shown in the number of farms farm land will offset any decrease in the by the loss in the number operated. Washington, D.C.—Recently compiled U.S. Census statistics show that twenty-five states, including the Ditsrict of Columbia, the number of farms decreased nearly 190,000 during the ten year Census period. To what extent farmers or our racial group contributed to this decrease will be interesting formation when considered in connection with the fact that ten years ago and these same states they operated about 295,000 farms valued at nearly 354 million dollars, one fourth of which were owned. Faking the country as a whole, our farmers constitute the only class in racial group doing business on assets aggregating at BILLION DOLLARS more. They operate in every state, and ten years ago reports were received from 1,180 of the 2,053 countie showing 893,370 farms comprising more than 42 million acres and valued at ONE BILLION, ONE HUNDRED FORTY-TWO MILLION DOLLARS. Whether there has been an increase or decrease in the number is yet to be determined, but it is believed that while a considerable decrease may be shown in the number of farms operated, the general rise in the value of farm land will offset any decrease in the total value of farm property (according by the loss in the number operated). Within recent years there has been a noticeable drift of our farmers to the western states, and we find that they operated, as long ago as 1910, in 13 counties in California, 23 in Colorado, 8in Idaho, 44 in Iowa, 81 in Kansas, 58 in Michigan, 17 in Minnesota, 12 in Montana, 35 in Nebraska, 13 in North Dakota, 15 in Oregon, 28 in South Dakota, 22 in Washington and 20 in Wisconsin. It is hoped that the settlements that are located in Vernon County, Wisconsin, Selly County, Wisconsin; Selly County, South Dakota, Weld County, Colorado; Casade County, Montana, Yakima County, Washington and Tulare County, California will show such progress as will influence a goodly number of those who KNOW HOW TO FARM to settle in the West and Northwest. In these sections of the country where conditions are favorable to agriculture, where there are no humilating "Jim Crow" laws, where the children can attend school eight or nine months during the year instead of eight or ten weeks, and where all of the right and privileges of American citizenship are enjoyed, there is every reason to believe that colored farmers would prosper. Anxious for Settlers The State Land Commissioners and the railroad companies are anxious to have people settle in these states and they will send application, free of charge, booklets and other printed matter showing the advantages and possibilities open to those who are seeking new homes, but they are not running free excursion trains nor conducting any charitable institutions. They are looking for settlers who will become permanent, who will help to build up the country by developing its resources, and to this type they are offering attractive easy payment plans that assure easy ownership. No special inducements are being offered to any nationality, race or creed. As the type of foreigners now coming to this country is not greatly interested in agriculture pursuits and will not contribute much, if anything, to the production of food-stuffs it is believed that if several thousand colored farmers were ent Against ties By U.

Carls have occurred in which there is the gravest reason for fear that other officers of the law have active participants in the gravest kind of wrongs. The things of which we speak run all the gamut from the peasant to petty delivery to deliberate and plotted murder. Ninety-nine per cent of our white people would utterly declare and condemn what is going on but something more is demanded of a civilized people and their government than mere sentiment. If the state permits the utterance of conditions that now small and bitter, and in some cases fatal, exist (By CHARLES E. HALL.) Recently compiled U. S. Census statistics show that, during the District of Columbia, the number of farms belonging the ten year Census period. To what extent the group contributed to this decrease will be interesting in connection with the fact that ten years ago and about 295,000 farms valued at nearly 354 million which were owned. As a whole, our farmers constitute the only class in the nation on assets aggregating a BILLION DOLLARS every state, and ten years ago reports were received from showing 893,500 farms comprising more than 42 million at ONE BILLION, ONE HUNDRED FORTY-TWENTY. Whether there has been an increase or decrease in the number of farms operated, the general rise in the value decrease in the total value of farm property (operations or operated) where has been farmers to the land that they were 1910, in 33 in Colorado, in Kansas, 56 in Missouri, 12 m, 13 in North South Dakota, and 20 in Wisconsin. The settlements County, Wisconsin; Sully Welb County, Montana, Yankee properly directed to different localities in some of the states mentioned in land is reasonably clearly perceived plentiful and market good, that they would not only benefit themselves that would constitute an element to the agricultural interests of the state or states in which they settle. Many of those who have recently moved North have always farmed and can not easily adapt themselves to the living conditions peculiar to our large and highly organized industrial communities, and if properly informed would no doubt glance to the production of food-stuffs. There are vast acreages of undeveloped and cheap agricultural land in northern Michigan and Wisconsin, NEAR THE HEART OF THE NATION'S INDUSTRY, and in both of these states splendid school systems obtain, the markets are near, railroad facilities good andumber plentiful. Our farmers in these states although few in number, are compared with states farther, south, are happy and prosperous, and are looking forward to the day when OTHERS will join them. Probable Decrease in Ownership. In the year 1910, about one-fourth of our farmers were owners while slightly more than two-thirds of the farms operated by whites were owned, but the percentage of ownership by our group increased more than twice that of the whites during the ten year period, 1900 to 1910, and the value of property operated by our farmers increased nearly 642 million dollars, or at a rate in excess of FIVE MILLION DOLLARS EVERY THIRTY DAYS during the ten years. If a few thousand of these men who know how to farm could be advantageously placed in the grain producing states and taught through County Agents the best methods of farming, it is highly probable that there would be a considerable increase in the products of food-stuffs.

A serious situation has presented itself in the case of the head of one of the organizations doing welfare work among the young men of the race in this city. The individual in question has separated from his wife, and has arroused critical comment by his association with a young woman, whom of course he cannot marry, under the existing conditions. He averts that this association is perfectly innocent of evil intent, which may be perfectly true, but nonetheless is affords occasion for censure criticism. This criticism not only affects the reputation of both individuals, but what is more important, it reflects upon the work of the institution to the detriment of its morale. In a situation like this, it becomes the duty of the Act, and all newspapers as well for the furtherance of the useful intentions of the raise, to sound a note of warning and to arouse the directors of the organization to the danger that threatens their work. It is not a sufficient answer to such a warning to say that the institution must be regarded on a business basis and that the moral side of the issue need not be considered. It is not the moral side of the work that should be given first consideration. No degree of efficiency on the business side can compensate for a lowering of the moral standards that are sought to be unindicated through an organization of this character. Granted that the motives of both the parties concerned are of the purest character, the scandalous comment aroused by such an association of two people who cannot marry, is bound to react upon the organization which is involved. No leader in either a religious or secular institution devoted to the teaching of morality and right living can occupy such an anomalous situation without the damage to the institution which the representative becomes of living and luxury of morality, and the strict accusations brought against the race and a situation like the one presented does much to justify with a rejection. When a minister of a white church eloqed a few weeks ago with an married woman of his congregation and after a bnee but unlawful honeymoon returned and wore out the repentance and was welcomed by his family and congregation, it did not dishear the situation of great immorality. For a doubt furnish any more information we can afford to a bnee. Our ministers of other men of light and leading the only lead moral lives, but should not afford the slightest chance to repress in their private product to become the duty of those has no interests of the organization of the church to grant upon a clearing up of those whose situation remains fraught with danger to the future of the institution. In the interest of the youth of the race for annual benefit such an institution was founded, we call upon those responsible for this situation to "Watch your step." WORK AND HEALTH In order to exist in a great city like New York, it is necessary to work. In order to work with any degree of efficiency it is necessary for a man to maintain his health, as well as that of his family. In a review of the work accomplished in the New York Urban League during the past year there matters of industry and health were placed first in importance. The Industrial department desirous its efforts to the following subjects. A survey of Negroes in industry in New York and vicinity; new openings for Negroes; a vacant placement Bureau, group organization and personal service for industrial workers. Of 2941 juggles who registered for employment, 815 were placed. The remainder were assisted and advised to continue school, join clubs or as the particular case demanded. Labor adjustments were another feature of the work, a wage increase being required for the railroad dealing car employees. Special work was done with long shoresmen and other groups. New openings were reported as obtained with eight different forms for groups of 25 or more employees, while special openings were secured in other trades and professions. In the matter of improving health conditions, 794 men and women were offered an opportunity for country conference during the past five years at League's convocation home. The health campaign and clean-up distribution of literature, illustrated lectures and addresses by Board of Health representatives and local physicians. This was supplemented by moving picture films on health copies at the local motion picture houses. A pre-natal clinic was opened in Harlem, at which about 2,000 person, have received assistance, and the cooperation of the Henry Street Settlement was secured in extending its nursing service to Harlem. A committee of women was organized who worked with cripples by visiting and giving needed assistance. Other activities for the good of the community have been promoted, in the way of a round table conference of social agencies, a men's civil association in a suburban district, a community centre at Public School No. 40, and a community forum in Harlem. Special attention was given to the acute housing condition by assisting tenants in finding suitable living quarters and advising them about the new rent laws. All in all the League presents a showing of useful activity in helping to make the Negroes of New York a useful and healthy factor of the population. Its capacity for future usefulness is practically unlimited, and there are many ways in which its work might be extended for racial benefit. AMERICAN POLICY FEARED. The policy pursued by the present administration in its dealings, with such weaker nations as Haiti, San Domingo and Nicaragua, has not been without its effect on the other countries to the South. At the congress of the Pan-American Federation of Labor, held in Mexico City last week, a fear of American domination was manifested on the part of the Spanish speaking delegates. Charges that the United States was pursuing an imperialistic policy in its dealings with San Domingo and Nicaragua were freely expressed by delegates from Columbia, San Salvador and San Domingo. This attitude by the representives of labor is entitled to greater importance because of the fact that it more truly represents the popular sentiment of the countries, from which they come. Official utterances, such as those that greet a Secretary of State or other functionary on a formal visit to South America, are of a perfunctory character and carry little weight as an index to public opinion. The distrust test as to the policy of the United States toward South America has been augmented in no slight degree by the events of the past few years. Already around by the encouragement given by the United States to the secretion of Panama from Colombia, the subjugation of Haiti and San Domingo by United States marines and the enrichment on the independence of Nicaragua have added to the flame. The new administration will have its hands full in reassuring the Pan American states as to the policy to be pursued in respecting the right to self determination by weaker nations. FUNDAMENTALLY WEONG FUNDAMENTALLY WRONG. The New York daily newspapers, for the past few weeks have devoted considerable space to the exposition of the plans and purposes of the so-called revived Kulik Nlam, so far as the heads of the organization have chosen to reveal them. Most of the twible given out for this purpose has been carefully capurgated for Northern consumption. The publication by Tur Acr of the "A.B.C." at the order comes near revealing the true aims of these lawless mob insurgents. Directed of its clapstrap about eroding the laws and praticing about a patriarchism that does not mean anything the fundamental basis on which the Klan at today now stands is equally compounded of bigotry, intolerance and hypocrisy. Its constitution and by-laws show after its first venerum has been exerted to: 'Keep the Negro Down', its ammunis is then directed toward Cathedral, Jews and all citizens of foreign birth. This form of intolerance and know-nothingism is supposed to feature its professions of Americanism and patriotism. The extent to which its leaders are ready to go in their hypocritical camouflage employed to veil their true aims, was shown in a telegram sent to Mason Hylan of New York by the head of the order. The mayor had issued orders to the police concerning the proposed invasion by the order, in which he said that "there is no room in this city for any group which runs counter to law and order and tends to create class antagonism." The telegram sent by William J. Simmons, the so-called Grand Imperial Wizard, ran as follows: "Having at all times in mind and in heart the sanctity of the peace and security of the people and the loftiest respect for the majesty of law and order and prompted by none other than the deepest patriotic devotion, I wish to inform you that I, as the supreme executive officer of the Knights of the Klu Kux Klan, most heartily indicate what you said in your letter to Police Commissioner Ennght tolah and my hand is in yours, as we both stand as true citizens for the nobles and infest interests of all the people all the time. Your utterance reflects the patriotic nobility of the man and I most heartily concur in the same." Could impudent hypocrisy and laziness assurance go further? Imagine Simons, a night rider and instigator of race hared, putting his hand in the of Mayor Hylana Catholic by religion and the law upholding chief magistrate of the greatest city in the country. The Kaikas Klan is a group of fundamentally being in being, of superior intolerance and hypocrisy. It professed all the vicissitudes of the original organization but seeks in vain to hide it under the camouflage of patriotism and devotion to law and order. VIEWS and REVIEWS By James Weldon Johnson, Contributing Writer SOUTHERN INFLUENCES AT WORK. Whenever the South fails to elect a man to the presidency, it sets about making as much of a Southerner as possible out of whoever is elected. The South worked on McKinley; it worked on Roosevelt, without quite so much effect; and it worked on Taft. It did not need to work on Wilson, and it is now at work on President-elect Harding. The South has a way of getting things put through that compels admiration. The putting over of Southern propaganda is the religion of white men and women of the South. In fact, it is more than their religion, because they very often forget to practice religion, but they never fail to preach their Southern propaganda. When the South lost the Civil War, it was despondent for a while; but very quickly rallied and made up its mind it would reconquer the country, not by arms, but by propaganda. It almost completely succeeded in doing this during the Wilson administration. If the Great War had not come along and forced something of a change in their methods, they would have had the job absolutely completed by this time. Immediately after his election, Senator Harding spent a vacation in Texas; and now he is off for another rest in Florida, before taking up his duties as President. There is no doubt that while he was in Texas, the attempt was made to inject Southern ideas into him; and a fresh attempt will be made while he is in Florida. We hope that the President-elect will not prove susceptible to the infection. However, a Washington dispatch of January 16th has a disturbing tone. It relates to a policy now being urged on Mr. Harding by a "strong element of the Republican National Committee." If Mr. Harding acts in accordance with this policy, he will refuse to appoint any colored man to office in any community in the South where such an appointment would be objectionable to any part of the white population. The dispatch quotes one man, high in the Party councils, as laying his views before President-elect Harding, in the following words: "I would not have Mr. Harding appoint rampant Democrats to office; but I think the ideal plan would be to appoint young men of standing in the communities known to hold views, if possible, in sympathy with the National policies of the Republican Party. "One thing I think imperative is that not a single Negro should be appointed to any office in the South, where the fact that he is a Negro would be irritating to any considerable element of the people there. I am a Northernner myself, and am not for the moment thinking of any other consideration than building up our Party to something real and vital in that section of the country. No President would think of appointing a man of his Party in a Northern or Western State, who he knew in advance would be distasteful to a large majority of the voters in that State or City. "The thing to do is to show the South that no such humiliation as the dictation of the appointment of powerful officers in their States by the men who make a business of controlling their 'Black and Tan' delegations to the Republican National Conventions would be permitted by the Republican Party." These words are supposed to express the sentiment of a leading Republican, but they are certainly in accord, not only with Southern sentiments, but with the same old Southern strategy which the South attempted to play on Roosevelt. As soon as Republicans get in power nationally, certain Democrats from the South make it their business to show Republican leaders how easy it would be to break the Solid South, it certain policies were laid down and carried out. Anybody would think that the chief object in life of these particular Democrats was to see that the Solid South was broken, whereas anybody with a grain of common sense and practical experience knows that they have no such desire. What they really wish to do is to keep the Negro in the South out of any political recognition, and that is something which the Republican Party will have no difficulty in seeing through. ARTISTIC HARLEM It is likely that we think of Harlem as everything except artistic. We have considered its growth in population and in wisdom, its religious and social activities and its cave development; but the idea that it is one of the distinctively picturesque quarters of New York has perhaps never entered the mind of one in a thousand of us who live there. The New York East Side has inspired a special literature and art; so has Little Italy Greenwich Village is set forth, not only as the inspirer, but even as the producer of most things artistic in New York. Now comes a writer in the New York "Sun" who declares Harlem to be the most picturesque and artistic quarter of this entire great city. To him, it appears as a source from which may come stories with all of the magic contained in the work of Loti; Stephenson, or Conrad. This observer, after speaking of women of the East and of the South Sea Islands, women with "grace of a young leopard and eyes of banked fires," goes on to say: "Walking along Lenox Avenue from 130th to 140th streets on a Spring or Summer afternoon, one passes many women who, for beauty of face and figure, raise those vaunted antipodal goddesses. Indeed, there is less dissimilarity between the two types than one would suppose, and at times the resemblance is most striking." He then goes on to speak of the scenes which meet the eyes of us Harlemites every day, but which do not strike us as being anything but ordinary. This, of course, is because we are too close and too used to them. This observer is enchanted with the color scheme of the people of this quarter,—all the shades ranging from velvety black to creamy white. He is moved by the grace and rhythm which are native to the Negro, and he is delighted with what impresses him as the grace and gaiety of the ensemble. He concludes his article by saying: "It is a mystery why our artists have not been alive to the wealth of beauty that awaits them in this interesting quarter. Some day a man like Augustus John will come over and he will paint such gorgeous pictures there that we will suddenly realize how blind we have been." It would, of course, be much better if the colored writers and artists would arise, who could realize and interpret the artistic beauties of Harlem. SPORTSMANSHIP IN THE UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA. News comes from Charlottesville, Virginia, that the Dual Track Meet between Harvard University and the University of Virginia, which was scheduled as one of the big sporting events of the Spring season, has been called off: just before signing the final contract for the Meet, the manager of the Harvard team is said to have informed Dr. Lambert of the University of Virginia faculty that two of the best men on the Crimson Squad were colored, and he was not willing to bring the Squad South without the two men. At the same time, the facts known before the time of the Most in order to avoid any embarrassments. When this information reached the authorities at the University of Virginia, a decision was reached cancelling the Most. If the kind of education that the students of the University of Virginia are receiving is not broadening enough to allow them to meet the athletic team from the great University of Harvard, because that team has five crack colored men on it, it strikes us that they are receiving education not worthy of the name. They may get some Latin and Greek and higher mathematics jammed into their brains; but if they do not get some of the cobwebs of prejudice brushed up and gain a wider outlook on life and humanity, they have failed to secure the highest benefit that a University is supposed to have. Comment By The Age Editors On Sayings Of Other Editors SCHOOL FUNDS WASTED A few weeks ago the question was raised as to why a school was conducted for cooped children only in the section of the city known as Columbus Hill. According to the information furnished at that time this school was regarded as a hindrance rather than a help to children who attended it, as its practical results showed when they were transferred to the public schools that they were behind in their grade work. We understand that this Henrietta day school is able to secure funds from the city for its maintenance, under the auspices of the Children's Aid Society. Those familiar with the work that it is doing consider such a division of public school funds a waste of money. One of the reasons advanced for the continuance of this school is the plea that there is a scarcity of school accommodations in the district for the primary grades and to require these children to attend the public schools would accelerate the establishment of part time classes. From what has been said concerning the work of the Henrietta day school by those conversant with the results to its pupils, they would be the gamers by half time in a public school. One critic pronounced this school twenty years behind the times and its continuance a detriment to the children who are forced to attend: With the excellent public school system maintained at the expense of the taxpayers of New York City, for the training of all the children, regardless of race or color, the continuance of this segregated institution, with its complete methods, is a waste of public funds and an injustice to the children and their parents. NATIONAL THRIFT WEEK This week is National Thrift Week, as every week of the year ought to be with people who appreciate the necessity of preparing for the many days that are bound to come. Special attention is being directed at this time to the importance of earning and spending. The following financial creed has been suggested for the guidance of those who have not paid due attention to their financial affairs: 1. Work and Earn to help increase the world's goods and decrease the cost of living. cause you come to your estimates Have a Bank Account—to keep your money in a safe place and help you save money 5. Carry Life Insurance—to protect your loved ones in case of your death. 6. Make a Will—to help insure your resources going quickly to those you desire. 7. Own Your Own Home—to secure the greatest satisfaction in your home life. 8. Pay Your Bills Promptly—to save yourself from the traps of debt. 9. Invest in Reliable Security—to increase your savings through wise investments. 10. Share With Other—to inform your religious duty of stewardship. The adoption of the limits given in the financial creed are bound to work to the independence and the happiness of those who live up to them. "Is Office-holding an Incurable Disease?" is the puzzle propounded by the Philadelphia American. In seeking the answer it says: If, as we have been taught, public office is a public trust and that the office should seek the man rather than the man seek the office, we suggest that many of our pilgrims to Washington remain at home and act, the part of the body in waiting, "must read, but never read." Such advice might be better for all concerned in those that carry cases in the Union has one or more candidates for the offices of president of Desert in the District of Columbia, Minister to Hawaii and San Lomingo. Register of the Treasury, and the one or two auditorships that herefore have been filled by colored appointees. Such advice, though admirable for its sound will, will fall upon debt ears, as far as the chronic office seek is concerned. The disease at certain stages becomes incurable. Commuting on the economic depression in industry, the Cleveland Advocate thinks that the peak has been reached and a steady improvement can be expected. It says: The "ill-wind" of enforced leness has certainly "shown us" some good, for there is a new resolve in the heart of "the brother" to save part of his money in the future, and not squander his hard earned money away on trifles. If the lesson of thrift and economy has been learned to this extent, the worker has gained more than he has lost. Under the caption of "Paying too much for Whites," the Pittsburgh American says: CONCERNING INFIDELS AND OTHERS A few months ago we reprinted a letter written by James F. Morton, Jr. to the New York Globe, in which the writer took this same and sensible view concerning the ancestry of the Presidential candidate. Negro blood would be no ground for repudiation, if his record were that of a statesman of the qualifying needy by the republic; nor would the proudest blue blood of our Caucasian race be renamed for favoring his aspirations, if he were deemed personally unworthy of the office to which he aspired. A valued correspondent, referring to this article, writes us as follow: To the Editor of The New York Ace: Please be so good as to permit me to inform you, that Mr. James F. Morton, Jr., quoted by The Ace, is a rationalist, an indefl, a free thinker and an asthist. Now, contrast Mr. Morton, to the Christian "tout" over in Brooklyn, who speaks on assimilation of the races, holding our race up to the stigma-stick. You will even forgive me, and even pardon the suggestion that the Truth Seeker, an indefl publication, should be the Ace's exchange list. I read it, buy and pay for it, the same as I do the great and growing and well edited Ace, buy. I am a Christian man. I want information, that is why I buy and read these papers. We want to become a race of "thinkers" B. Ingersoll said. "We must use our thinkers" Frederick Duglass you remember, and the famous agnostic were firm friends, and Ingersoll once said that "Frederick Duglass was the greatest man Maryland has ever produced." Goldsmith says: "Those who think must govern those who toll." Mr. Morton was the man who came to the rescue of Hubert Harrison, who got arrested for his "burb stone" speaking on Thomas Payne. Mr. Morton (I think) is a lawyer, and after in handed Harrison's case, the new York magistrate had to turn Harrison in. My point is this: If the Christian ministers and laymen of the several Christian denominations fail to help us speak out in our behalf; if they say us like the Freshwater "dub" over in Brooklyn, and if the intellect, sociist or free-thinkers seem inclined to speak out in our behalf, why not cultivate their friendship? At Lincoln University, Chester County, Pa., my alma mater and at Princeton Theological Seminary, Princeton, N.J. I have heard our professors denounce "Tom" Payne, as an Altester. I have studied the science of Higher Criticism and there is no difference between the reasoning of the late Dr Chas A Brigge, and Payne Payne was a higher critic and a professor at the University. Quentin was a friend of Negroes in denounced African slaves as bitterly as did Wilburiece Wm. Lloyd Garrison, Ben Judi Ludey, Highly Giant Gardner, Denmark Veser. I think we as a race, should cultivate the good will and friendship of the "regular thought" people such as Mr. Morton, Jr. We greatly give space to the above communication because of the pointed and original manner, in which our correspondent sets forth the broad and friendly attitude of such free thinkers as he mentions. It is a good thing to cultivate the good will and friendship of such staunch adherents of the rights of man. At the same time it may be remembered that not all Christian ministers are such unworthy examples of the Masters. clothes, fine jewels, and the displaying of the showy contents of bulging wardrobes, make up the sum total of their wants and desires. These too are placing too great a role on temporary values. They are paying extravagant price, for whistles and some day the role of their bargains will be brought some decisive. A large amount of values is advocated as the criterion of prices of truly Worth added years of experience, may come greater wisdom in the use of money. The Cleveland Gazette disputes the accuracy of the Tuskegee lynching statutes for 1921, on the ground that Ohio is credited with one. It says This is wrong. Dr. Moton Surely we would have heard of it had there been one. The department of state statutes of Ohio has on record of a lynching in this state last year according to a letter written Jan. 4 1921 by the Secretary of State, to the editor of T. Gazette. While the total lynchings were given as 61, there were so instances in which officers of the law prevented lynchings. In emphasizing the need to an insigni- gation of the Atlanta police force, the Atlanta Underwent says. Conditions are getting such among us that white or all white operative halls for drunken Negro men and those Negro women to carve all times of the night without interference. Conditions are shameful, and dissatisfaction when a white man is permitted to open a house in a Negro community to make money off the life and immortality of the black underworld. And this in the capital city of the South, where so much stress is laid upon the superiority of the white race.

BEGIN CAMPAIGN FOR NEGRO CHILD WELFARE Lect B. Myers, field secretary of the National Child Welfare Association, whose headquarters are at 70 Fifth Avenue, New York City, has outlined the plans of its Association for bettering its work to meet the special needs of Negro children. This Association has specialized in the production of graphic material which teaches child welfare by images or pictures. It has made and distributed large, number of its educational panels, not only throughout the United States, but in all parts of the world. The Association is now getting out a series of concatual art panels, lithographies and hand coloured, on heavy durable paper, 17 & 28 inches in size, which are illustrated with no types of healthy, happy and beautiful Negro children. Three panels teach by pictures and a new image of text the most important traits of Negro child welfare. Our illustrators robble three of these panels in "Character," "Play" and "Recovery." Other practical topics are more BRACL UP!

Mr. Miles noted that in his opinion the education of the Negro child has lathered too much in terms of white people. All in text books of the Negro child are about white people, while little about the Negro. The histories are all about white races. The books he reads are by white authors and his heroes and Heroes are white. The picture he sees are of white people. If he goes to a moving picture also, the same is true. If Negro appears in the scene, he is usually a portraiture or a joke. The new material of the National Child Welfare Act will still change this, given the Negro could still illiterate in groups of illiterate children in Negro communities will still be racial pride and ambition, and will make the child feel that heer, the boy a chance to be a worth-while man of woman. The Negro race is richly endowed by providence, and has an importance and which contribution to make to the willfulness of the world. Negroes should develop their natural character in the world. Methodist Organic Union Failed in C.M.E. Church Bishop Williams, Ardent Organic Union Advocate, Says Result was Brought About By Intreet Church Publications. Detroit, Michigan, Organic Group of the three great colored Methodist denominations, the African Methodist Episcopal, the African Methodist Episcopal Zion, and the Colored Methodist Episcopal Churches, in a failure even though two of the denominations voted enthusiastically to approve. The Colored Methodist Episcopal Church, in which Bishop Robert S. Williams of Augusta senior bishop, voted almost unanimously against it, according to a letter received by Bishop C. S. Smith in his home, 87 East Alexandria avenue, this city, from Bishop Williams. Bishop Williams was one of the strongest advocates of Organic Union, and he attributes its failure in his church to the opposition engendered by Bishop Charles H. Phillips of Nassilyk, and to忍冤 and indignate publication in many of the denominational journals of the A. M. E. and C. M. E. Churches. Bishop Smith wrote Bishop Williams asking information of to the outcome of the vote among the C. M. E. conferences. Bishop Williams replied to him so resolves.

Mr. Meyers is making comprehensive plans for the distribution of these art groups, and states that the National Child Welfare Association is ready to cooperate with other organizations in setting up exhibits of the panels, in planning talks and lectures, and in conducting education initiatives in child welfare work. AUGUSTA, GA. Augusta, Ga. The friends of Rev. Dr. Charles T. Walker, pastor of Taberna's Baptist Church, Gunnett and Harper streets, are repolling news that the magnificent new church edifice will be entirely finished within the next month or so. The Standard Life Insurance Co. of Atlanta has just made a loan to the church of $5,000 with which to complete the structure. The Lenox Stock Co. owns of the newly completed Lenox Theatre has tendered a loan of $40,000 from the Standard Life Insurance Co.

The building is located three doors from the Tallac Theatre and from the Union Station. There is another rate of its class in Augusta for colored people. William Lewis, 1400 North street, has been selected by Mr. Underwood of Atlanta, chairman of the European Relief Council, as representative of that council for Richmond county. The appointment will be announced as soon as plans are confirmed. Mr. Lewis is active in public affairs and is a member of the local N.A.V.A.C.P. Much interest is being shown on the prospective appointment of a postmaster at Augusta, under the Harding Admiral situation. Several local Democrats will make a bid for the position on the basis of an alleged procise by Mr. Harding that he will allow Governor Hardwick and Senator-elect Tom Watson to run alliances in Georgia. Joseph L. Cartledge, who has been a supporter of Tom Watson throughout his public career, following from the Democratic party into the Populist party and back again into the Democratic party, is reported as a probable candidate for the Augusta postmasterhip on the Republican ticket. The Key Prof. Silas N. Floyd is allied to have and that if the Negroes ever attempt to rob him again he will have them run out of town. It is also alleged that he has made some remarks criticizing the students at Hollins School who presented the action of a white message boy who refused to reopen the hat that entering the school building.

The young man who belonged to the American made history for themselves as well as for their club by the cardinal welcome given their guests and the interested effort to please the crowd. Dean Lowe of Tane College, delivered the speech which will be long remembered by those who heard it. Some of the men in Bishop Cottrell, and Bishop Cleaver, contend, voted for it, but the great majority were against it. Bishop Philip, a servant over who singly, against it, I understand that the Bishop Carter, a servant, did not vote on it. All there were many reasons for this chiefly the attitude of Bishop Philip, and some of the others, in different things, that came out in the papers of the C.M. E. and the A.M. E. Church. As ardent as I was for the Union, and am yet, so far as that is concerned, I lost interest, for I saw that more harm would come than good if I undermined to force the question. I hope and pray that this day, will yet come when these churches will unite for the good of their lives, and a vast part of the people, and the Glory of God. I am yours in His Name.
