I counter upon you the degree of Doctor of Law, together with all the rights and privileges pertaining thereto." Marsellia Foch's response, in accepting the degree, was as follows: "I find it very easy to express my sentiments of gratitude for the cordial reception accorded me, when I recollect the commendable and indispensable service rendered by the colored troops upon the soil of France. I know well that Howard University contributed largely in the war. I know also that through the love and energy of this great institution of learning as manifested for France, that the soldiers animated by these impulse generally fought in France. France Will Not Forget. Although our green sod now covers the bones of many of your beloved congrades, France shall not forget the magnificent efforts of Howard University, and the costly sacrifices made by the color soldiers. The holding of their blood upon the altar of freedom shall mark an important epoch in the history of human action. I can assure you that the French people are laxing both love and care upon the tomb of the American soldiers whose bodies are now in France."

The school's half-centennial occurred in 1919, and it was at this time that the pageant was first presented, having its premiere on the University campus. Since then it has been given several times, notably at Boston, Springfield, Hartford, Providence and other points, North and South. I cannot compare the New York presentation with any of the preceding ones, but it can be said without fear of successful contradiction that Tuesday evening's performance was a remarkable one, dignified and impressive in simplicity, but powerful in appeal because of their simplicity. "History," impersonated by Charles Burroughs, briefly synopsised the story told by "The Open Door." It begins with the reigning of "King Ignorance" (Clurel Holland) in the barbaric wilds. He is escorted to his throne by a group of followers, "Wild Men." (boys from the Y. M. C. A.) who molluge in a thrilling acrobatic war dance. Gift bearers in bizarre Oriental costumes lay offerings at his feet while performing their rituals in his honor. They are led by the "High Priestess" (Mrs. Gertrude Allston of Boston, who has taken this part some half-digit times). While "Ignorance" sleeps on his throne, "Greed" (C. Uilel Turpint), representing the avaricious and predatory European who ravished the African Continent of its wealth and sold its natives into slavery, lashes a group of slaves to the foot of the throne where they crouch in misery, while "Greed's" wite, "Hate" (Miss Clinton Dingle), slouches in and presents her son, "Prejudice" (Master Earl McGee), blinded in sight and distorted in form. Then comes "Education" (Mrs. MaBelle White Williams), whose power drives "Ignorance" from his throne, forces "Greed" to free his slaves, and dispels "Hate" and "Prejudice." The slaves, in their despair and toil, had previously given utterance to their heart ache and sorrow through the Spirituals, "Nobody knows the trouble I see," "Couldn't hear nobody pray," and "Now is the needy time." But with the freedom that came with "Education's" power, they rose up rejoicing, singing, "Free at last," and as they tore Helping Louisiana Up From Foot of List in Education School Authorities Employing Best Teachers They Can Get For Colored Schools—Head of Valena C. Jones School Is An Example (By V. P. Thomas) New Orleans, La.—According to the reports heard on all sides the enrolment of everyone one of the colored public schools in the city is much larger this year than it ever has been. This fact speaks well for the school board whose public spirit is behind it all and it speaks well for those that the school authorities have employed and put to work to arouse the colored people to the desire of the city and state to move Louisiana up from the foot of the list of states in the matter of illiteracy. When a Louisianaian by birth or by choice looks over the illiteracy of the people of the United States by the states and finds Louisiana with a greater proportion of illiterate citizens than any other state in the country, his pride and his patriotism are elicited and humbled by the shameful showing. His sense of self-respect is cut to the quick and he holds his head down in shame. Our public school authorities now more than ever keenly realize this and they have been seriously at work to wipe out the cause of this shame felt by all Louisianaans. useful and helpful information for themselves and their children. By their work these teachers have interested parents in the schools and parents in turn have interested their children in their mothers' clubs formed to assist teachers in their plans for improvement of facilities and the encouragement of children in the athletics and other activities of the school have, at the instance of teachers, great parts in the development of "school" ideas in the community. For instance back of town in the lower section of the city where for a long time the colored people cared almost nothing for public schools, where, in fact, there was no little prejudice against the common schools, a most decided change has taken place in the attitude of the colored people toward public education. Example Of What Is Going On. They have taken very proper steps to accomplish their aim. They have given the colored schools the best teachers they could get for them—teachers whose work carry them into community service, and not only into the class room and no further as it did of old; teachers who realize the community service mission the community to the state of and country and people; the course of Secured Best Features.

Example Of What Is Going On Miss Fannie C. Williams is the supervisory principal of the Valenza C. Jones School, with nineteen assistant teachers. The number of pupils in this school—900—is the largest in the history of the school. Before it was given its present name it was the Miro School. Miss Williams has been the supervisory principal there since the opening of the school term of 1928, when she returned here with the headmaster of psychology degree earned in 1939 and the A. B. degree. gree carried in 1920 and the Ypallam State Normal College of Michigan. She was the only colored girl in a class of several hundred girls who unanimously elected her the class commencement speaker, it being the first time in the history of the institution that a colored student enjoyed the distinction. Miss Williams holds a state license to teach in Michigan and was engaged in teaching psychology, pedagogy and methods when the death of her mother brought her back to New Orleans just before the opening of the Fall term of 1920. She is classed "A-T" as a teacher of methods of teaching reading and psychology and she has been helping a number of local teachers here who feel the need of becoming more proficient in their work on these subjects. Program of Service. She has planned and is working a program for the Valena C. Jones School for the present year that covers the adopted slogan—"Service"—very well. There is a story hour for her school superintendent has granted permission every Friday afternoon in which the pupils are taking much interest on account of the fascination of the character of the stories selected and the entertaining manner of the telling of them. To meet the needs of the community the city for use of the building to Miss Williams for Saturday morning classes in psychology and methods open to teachers of New Orleans free. Sundays, 3 to 5 p.m. m., is given to a public story hour, open to all children of the community. An afternoon class twice a week in dressmaking and chair-cleaning in charge of Misses Dumtard and Avenean, also free to the community, is another of the services, Mrs. Lance J. Ross, registered nurse, giving free lectures twice a week to mothers on the health of school children, is still another. The mothers' Club of the school has engaged the services of a music teacher, Mrs. Alma Lible Hubbard, to give lessons twice a week to the school children in response to and in cooperation with the ideals Miss Williams has set up for her work. This gives a idea of the whole hearted interest Miss Williams has in everything connected with the Valena C. Jones School and yet feels expressed the earnestness, the enthusiasm, the want-to-do-to help purpose which takes, all thought of self, of working for the money in the job, out of consideration in the case. Her work, which she has well prepared herself to do, is her talk, her thought, her hobby all the time, and naturally ranks with the best done here. LYNCHBURG, VA. Lynchburg, Va.-Rev. E. C. Smith, pastor of the Mt. Carmel Baptist Church has closed one of the most successful revivals in the history of the church. Twenty-five concerts were baptized Sunday and thirty received the hand of fellowship. So great was the crowd witnessing the baptismal ceremonies that a weak part of the flooring near the pulpit gave in, causing a wave of confusion for just a minute, but the splendid discipline of the congregation was manifested when peace prevailed after a sharp rebuke by the pastor and deacons.

UNSELFISH LEADERSHIP UNSELFISH LEADERSHIP This is never greater need for a forward and unethical leadership of the race than there is today. The time has passed when the race can only be recognized through one man, who embodies in himself the laying and the end of racial arms and aspirations. The need is not an enlightened leadership that is express and interpret the army and sometimes of the people back of him and will open the pathway for their forward and onward progress. The individual who works only for himself in the position of leader will be sent in the office because he will gradual ly but surely alternate and lose his follower when they tell that he lead, but for some own goals. While it is hard to eliminate the poor from a strong force that tries to leadership, such force may be taken as unbined with the task as to record the greatest in individual who needs in their best of leadership in a area of the community and must have the position by his work- force be the most important in Leadership Negros have not always fallen to the aptest but more given to the lowest and least of problems. This kind of leadership as a give is not get anywhere, beyond pursue a position of the leaves and follow the people. The people are tired of it. They want a constructive leader that puts things assemblaged that mean something for the general work. The leader of the future must put self-volume and pride personal gain to account. He does not mean that he will not be rewarded for his efforts, but these rewards must be exerted for other than personally personal ends. He must even be conscious of the aims and purpose of the work which he represents. He must be open to opportunity to contribute to the aims even at times at any time with his personal disadvantage. He must always himself of the New Testament qualities of selflessness and self-love and appreciate his individual contribution to the general goal. He must be willing a greater power and influence than the man best equipped to answer himself. His reward will come from the contributions of a thinner will serve and the gratitude of the people whom he has served. ```markdown ``` TIME TO SPEAK OUT The same increment that the Committee on the District of Columbia has decided to make a favorable report on the nomination of Henry Lincoln Johnson of Georgia for the post of Recorder of Deeds presumed that action would be in order by the Senate looking toward his commission. The delay in bringing the report before the Senate for being targets that some obstacle it still is not raised to such action. The fact that Mr. Johnson still remains as the representative from Georgia to the Republican National Committee may be construed by a more observers as constituting the burden to prompt action by the Senate on his nomination. There does not appear to be any good reason in law or in equity why this membership should debar Mr. Johnson from efficiently discharging the duties that would devolve upon him as Recorder of Deeds. If his resignation as a member of the Republican National Committee has been made a condition necessary to his confirmation to the post for which the President has named him, Mr. John on should speak out and say so. I'm Ace, and other friends who have urged Mr. Johnson's confirmation for this position are entitled to know why his nomination is being held up in the mysterious manner that it has been. If he knows the reason, let him tell the world. He has nothing to lose by speaking out and his friends and the race at large will know what he and they are up against. The report that the nomination has been rejected since writing the above emphasizes the necessity for an explanation. AN EXCUSE THAT FAILS. The excuse is frequently raised when cases of immorality among the race are exposed and, rebuked, that "we are no worse than the whites" and that similar examples of depravity can be cited among the other race. This may be true enough, and yet it does not excuse or justify the cases of wrong doing that deserve The argument that because a certain number of white men or women exhibit bad morals, and that therefore an equal number of colored men and women practising the same criminality are no worse, does not excuse or exculpate either group. Comparisons of this sort are especially odious, and what is more they are dangerous as affording an easy thought false excuse for misconduct. Let each race be the guardian of its own morals and not seek excuse or extenuation by citing the frailty of the other. Because a white minister or a white officer of Some welfare organization has proved false to his trust and committed offenses against the moral law, does not justify a similar breach of duty on the part of a colored minister or welfare worker. Rather there is greater need to oust the offender from a position where his example may work greater harm to the work entrusted to his care. The higher the position and the graver the responsibility of the olender against the moral law the greater the need for displacing him before his deregulation can spread moral have to the work affected. No considerations of equal weakness among the whites can help the case at issue. Each case must be dealt with on its own merits and false excuses should not hide the issues involved. The lowering of the moral standard of the race to benefit an individual weakness is a case of sacrificing the interests of the greater for the lesser. Moral standards should be kept high though individuals suffer by failing to measure up to them. TALKING AGAINST FACTS. Apart from the political and economic aspects of President Harding's recent speech delivered at the Birmingham celebration, there was a phase of his philosophy which is in violent contrast to some facts and figures brought out in a study of the United States Census of 1910. According to the President's conception of the racial situation in the South, "Politically and economically, there need be no occasion for great and permanent differentiation, for limitations of the individual's opportunity, provided that on both sides there shall be recognition of the absolute divergence in things' social and racial." But what if the white men of the South refuse to recognize thus "absolute divergence in things' social and racial"? The President seemed to admit this possibility, when he added that "men of both races may well stand uncompromisingly against every suggestion of social equality" and urged the acceptance by both sides of the suggestion that it was "a question of recognizing a fundamental, eternal and inescapable difference." And he emphasized this suggestion by the hint declaration; "Racial amalgamation there cannot be." Now, by the figures of the census of 1920, gathered by southern white men and collated and published by the Census office at Washington, racial amalgamation is just what is going on in the South. As it will no be conceivable that Negro men and white women are responsible for this process of natural selection, it must be that the census for it lies with the white men of the South. But let us see what the census actually shows. Japan, too, in spite of her contention for a slight increase in capital ships, must know that with the proposed reduction in the British and American navies, Japan would be more secure without almost any navy than she is today in the competitive race against the United States and the British Empire. Under the Hughes program neither Great Britain nor the United States could afford to attack Japan. We still have high hopes that much more will come out of the Washington Conference than was expected before the conference began. Although the mitate element in the South increased at the rate of 42.1 per cent from 1850 to 1910, the total Negro population there increased only 10.1 per cent, and the black population, only 11.0 per cent. In the 20 years, 1850-1910, the Black population in the South increased 20.1 per cent, and the mitate element 90.4 per cent, and in the 20 years from 1870 to 1910, the Black element increased 48 per cent, and the mitate element nearly 89 per cent. ECHOES FROM PRESIDENT HARDING'S SPEECH. President Harding's Birmingham speech awoke a great many echoes. These echoes rang all the way from absolute endorsement to complete condemnation. It is curious to note that there was almost as much variation of opinion expressed by colored people as by white. Although the figures for the census of 1920 relating to this classification are not yet available, the progressive tendency of racial amalgamation is officially set forth as follows. These variations of opinions were not governed by sections. There were white newspapers in the South that almost entirely approved the speech and there were those that almost entirely condemned it. These newspapers of the former class took the position that it was only in accord with common justice that the Negro be granted economic, educational and political equality. Their approval was strengthened by the fact that they absolutely endorsed the President's statement that there should be permanent separateness between the races in all things socially. These newspapers o the latter class gave as their reason for condemning the President's utterances not so much the fact that they were opposed to giving the Negro economic, educational and political equality, but the fact that these equalities would ultimately lead to social equality, and to social equality they were irrevocably opposed. "Whatever proportion malaria future consorties may show for the Negro population, it is inevitable that the dissemination of white blood within the Negro population shall continue to embrace from period to period a larger proportion of that population, until in fact the entire Negro population is affected." While neither the figures nor the conclusions of the consort takers and makers are always to be accepted as infallible, they may be regarded as substantial evidence, when not inconsistent with other known facts in the case. It may also be contrived that the dissemination of white blood among Negroes does not in itself constitute amalgamation, but it cannot be denied that it is a long step toward that process. The most backward and ignorant comment which we have yet seen on the President's speech came from the mayor of Savannah, in reply to a telegram from the New York "Herald" asking him to give his views on the address. These views were even worse than the one expressed by Vardaman in his weekly newspaper. Mayor Stewart, in his communication which was published in the New York "Herald," said: The history of the Negro in America has praised that the African is susceptible of assimilation, both in blood and in sentiment, into the full measure of Americanism. This is a matter of loss and gain so far as the race itself is concerned. The nation has promoted materially and spiritually. The ultimate outcome is yet to be decided "Why not let us handle these people kindly and firmly as laborers and servants, which they are only fit for, and not try to enforce upon a race positions they are totally unfit for? By doing this you only hurt them, not help them. Our observation is that the white man of the United States who comes in contact with the Negro will frankly admit that it is unfair to force him into a position that he is totally unfit to fill." In the meantime as a predecessor of Mr. Harding in the presidential chair once phrase it. "It is a condition and not a theory that confronts us." The theory of "absolute divergence in things social and racial" is inconsistent with the increase of mulattoes in the South as revealed by the census figures. The declaration that "racial amalgamation there cannot be" becomes an empty sound in view of this situation. Mr. Harding will find it no easy task to get the white men of the South "to stand uncompromisingly against every suggestion of social equality" and to recognize that "fundamental, eternal and inescapable difference" between the races, that would stay the increase of the percentage of "If President Harding expected his speech to help the feeling between the two races he has made a grave mistake. Personally, I do not think the speech will be remembered more than a few days throughout this section, for we of Georgia intend to keep the Negro where he belongs and where he is the happiest, namely, the servant of the white race." However, the mayor of Sayannah is an exception. Most of the comments on the Birmingham speech, North and South, have been made with some light regard at least for logic and truth; and yet not very many comments which have come to our notice have gone to the heart of the matter. Most of them have been superficial and rhetorical. One of the colored delegates to the conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church held in Detroit hot week social equality and never has asked it. All he asks is social justice." The statement of course demands a definition of social justice and brings up the question as to whether social justice can either be obtained or given unless equalities of all kinds are recognized. In fact the Harding speech is all right or all wrong according to how you look at it. It depends upon whether your vision takes in the Negro as becoming "the best black man possible" in the United States or whether it takes in his becoming the most complete American citizen possible.

H a large social affair among the but agree with the above state beauty at such an affair is som in any "dead white" gathering. Professor Frederick Starr, a noted anthropologist, lecturing at the Chicago University to the "co-eds" made a statement which startled his class and caused a great deal of comment throughout the country. He said: "There are no beautiful women in the United States. It is only our American good nature that makes us call a girl that is not phenomenally ugly a pretty girl." The professor then went on to state that the most beautiful women he had seen in all his travels were among the Africans. This latter statement was so astounding that most of the newspaper paragraphers seemed to think that the professo rwas merely joking. I made a similar statement in these very columns about three years ago: A statement which a good many of my own readers found very hard to swallow. I said that colored women in the rural districts of the South were more beautiful than the white women and that the only reason that we did not realize it was due to the fact that our education had made us almost incapable of seeing human beauty in darker colors. Some of the papers in New York, however, took Prof. Starr seriously and they invited him to come to New York and take a glance at the parade of feminine beauty that could be seen any day on Fifth Avenue. They assured Prof. Starr, that he could see the most beautiful women in America and in the world on Fifth Avenue. I agree with the New York papers as far as they go, but they should not stop on Fifth Avenue. If they wish to see a more fascinating phase of beauty they should see upper Seventh Avenue. Undoubtedly the prettiest women in América can be found in New York City an dNew York City contains no prettier women than can be found in colored Harlem. Anyone who has attended a large social affair among the colored people in Harlem cannot but agree with the above statement. The color and warmth of beauty at such an affair is something that cannot be approached in any "dead white" gathering. HELP OUR OWN. CHARITIES. There exists a common saying, that may not be found either in the Bible or in Shakespeare, to the effect that the Lord helps those who help themselves. While it is sometimes couple death a warning not to help oneself to the goods of others, the original intention was to inculcate the doctrine of selfhelp and install the spirit of independence in thought and conduct. The spirit of self-reliance and a charity that begins at home are among the traits that deserve greater attention and stimulation among the race. There are a number of charitable and welfare movements that are doing a needed and deserving work among the Negroes of New York City. Lacking substantial endowments or permanent subscription lists, it becomes necessary at frequent intervals for them to appeal to the general public in order to secure support for such work. It is not an uncommon thing for the solicitor for funds to be asked why do not the wealthy Negroes of Harlem contribute to the support of such institutions. While the sum of Negro wealth has been magnified in the focus of the public press so as to give a distorted view of the real conditions, there is sufficient ground to justify the comment made by outsiders. There are sufficient numbers of those able to contribute in a moderate but substantial manner and at regular intervals to these charities, who have not yet become interested in their support. A way should be found to reach this class and enlist their active interest. 'Such organizations as the Boys' Welfare Club, the Sojourner Truth and katy Ferguson Homes for Girls, the Working Girls' Home, the Hope Day Nursery and others of their kind are engaged in welfare work of a nature that deserves support. The number of earnest supporters of such work should be increased especially among those of the race who are able to contribute toward that end. Let the duty of contributing toward our own charities be emphasized from pulpit and from pew, until every man and woman shows a practical realization of the old saw, "The Lord helps those that help themselves." HOSPITAL FOR EX-SOLDIERS. The proposition to locate a hospital for ex-soldiers of the World War, under the auspices of the Veteran's Bureau, at Tuskegee, Alabama, has been recommended by the authorities interested and is receiving favorable consideration. The proximity to Tuskegee Institute is the chief factor in support of the proposition, as the Institute authorities, it is understood, will devote a large acreage for the purposes of the hospital. Among the advantages urged in behalf of this proposition is the central location of the place selected to the territory that furnished a large proportion of the soldiers that would benefit by the care and treatment to be afforded by an institution of this character. Then the community comprised in the Tuskegee institute would by its presence and proximity aid largely in establishing and helping to maintain a mental and moral environment, that would aid materially in the work of restoring the health and reestablishing the morale of the soldiers admitted as patients. The advantages of such a close proximity to an institution like Tuskegee would count for much in the context of the hospital work through that THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 1921. THE DISARMAMENT CONFERENCE. The Disarmament Conference started off with a rush. Secretary Hughes set a tremendous pace. Naturally the conference has slowed down because it could not be expected that the foreign diplomats could keep the pace set by the American Secretary of State. Mr. Hughes opened by laying down a clear-cut and concrete program based upon facts and figures and calling for well-defined action. This program was immediately accepted "in principle" by all of the foreign delegations and congratulatory messages were sent to Washington from the various foreign governments represented. For twenty-four hours the conference looked too good to be true. Even to the most hopeful it seemed that there must be a joker somewhere. There is a joker and it is contained in the phrase "in principle." All of the nations accepted the United States program in principle but reserved to themselves the right to differ in details. And it grows to be amazing how much difference details can cause among those who agree in principle. For example, the British agreed to the scrapping of a number of capital ships and also to a naval building holiday, but instead of agreeing, to a ten-year holiday such as announced by Secretary Hughes in which no ships at all should be built, Mr. Balfour, head of the English delegation, proposed "A restricted program of battle-ship replacement carried on from year to year so as to save the armament works from going to rot." There are several serious objections to Mr. Balfour's proposal. If it is agreed that no ships at all should be built in ten years, it will be an easy matter to check up the nations on this point, but if a little building is permitted each year it will be a very difficult matter to know whether a nation is over-stepping the limits or not. In addition, Mr. Balfour's proposal would keep alive the very spirit the conference at Washington is seeking to put to sleep. It is true that a little building each year would keep the armament plants from going to rot. But the very thing that is desired today is that the armament plants do go to rot. Then, too, the French delegation accepted "in principle" but reserved the right to guard the security of France. As Mr. H. G. Wels puts it, France today considers her security to consist in a permanently enfeebled Germany, an out-lawed and isolated Russia, and a military Poland that will act in conjunction with a powerful French army. Then Japan agrees "in princippe" but feels that she ought to be saved a couple more of the dreadnoughts she is building. She wishes to have her allotment of capital ships twelve instead of ten. And on top of all these reservations, there comes the Far Eastern tangle in China. And so the conference is developing into something not so simple as when it started. Nevertheless, we do not believe that this conference can in any possible way revert to the customary diplomatic gathering. It is hardly possible to get so far away as that from Secretary Hughes' program. We do not believe British opinion will sustain Mr. Balfour in his contention for a little building each year instead of an absolute holiday for ten years. We believe that France will ultimately see that her security against Germany will lie in a cordial understanding with Germany rather than in a line of bayonets. If she continues to place her trust in bayonets her security against a powerful and increasing nation like Germany will continue to be uncertain. er, a noted anthropologist, lecturing the "co-eds" made a statement which a great deal of comment throughout there are no beautiful women in the American good nature that make enormally ugly a pretty girl".

If they wish to see a more city should see upper Seventh Avenue, women in America can be found in york City contains no prettier women Harlem. Anyone who has attended the colored people in Harlem cannot statement. The color and warmth of something that cannot be approached stitution. The Tuskegee idea of service to the race would surely attach itself to the newer institution in such a way as to quicken the stereotyped processes of government care and inculcate a spirit of more intimate and personal service in the rehabilitation of those who had been shattered and wrecked in the nation's cause. We notice that some of the ex-service men are urging that the hospital be located further north, for the reason that the point selected would entail the necessity of the ex-soldiers and their friends riding in "jim crow" cars to get to Tuskegee. This objection should receive proper attention and measures should be taken to remove it by providing equal first class railroad accommodations for ex-soldiers who are sent in this hospital, as well as for their relatives and friends. While the Richmond Planet claimed that 25,000 votes were polled for the Republican ticket headed by its editor, John Mitchell, Jr., the Norfolk Journal and Guide allowed only 2500 as the aggregate vote. These brethren are too far apart in their count. Let them get a little closer together. In deprecating the growth of the mob spirit among the Negroes of Texas, the Dallas Express said: Not many days ago officers of the law trook a Negro prisoner from the hands of a Negro mob. In another section of our state a mob of Negroes lashed a man and woman of different races when found in a compromising position. Neither, of these cases, adds one note of credit to us as real American citizens. They rather betoken an imitation by us of a trait of our neighbors which we can well leave to them in the hope that they too will soon realize its menace to free institutions and discard it. This view of the matter cannot be too strongly emphasized. The resort to lawless methods on the part of the race would only serve to add to the perils of the situation. The Houston Observer strives to point out the way to thrift in the following. We are positive the Negro spends more for something to eat than any other race of people. Then on top of that he is not economical, he lavishes out to any one who chooses to pass while the feast is spread. Of course on Tuesday he is asking for a little credit until Saturday. Now, here is the point, if 40,000 of us were to hard ourselves as tightly together in some business enterprise as we do in the church or ledge, we could do wonders. But the sad phase of it is, our inability to see the advantages of saving a few pennies out of our hard earnings. What do you say? Let us start out this week by buying absolutely nothing but what we must have and not that if we can do without it. The main point is to save some definite portion of one's earnings for investment or to provide against a rainy day. Commenting on the recent municipal election the Philadelphia American said: After all has been said and done, Amos M. Scott has been elected a Magistrate of Philadelphia County by a vote of approximately 130,000. It indicates that venal attacks supported by race prejudice, even though published persistently in "respectable" daily Republican newspapers, are not always successful. The colored voters are to be commended. They not only stood by Scott but retaliated by cutting the entire Republican registrate's ticket in favor of Scott. This, to our mind, is the beginning of political violence. and but his color, and, of course, that was nothing against him. For thirty-seven years, Scott has been a man and tried Republican—too true to mind; not, nevertheless, true, and may be wrong. The leaders of his party to whom he has shown wavering loyalty for these years that a reward of confidence could be granted him in the form of an offer to the minor judiciary. It is about time that the President Republican machine recognized the delity of its Negro supporters. Discussing the vagaries of the Gay movement, the Western Institution at Los Angeles, Cal., published Theideas should be separated. Banks will keep the world opinion of Negroes, so will ship lines. So, too, will the cause of civilization in Africa by the civilizationaries and workers. It does prove the world estimate of borrowers however, to hold out promise toulous dividends from corporate profits and poppy dreams of high places in empire 400,000,000 strong, which will the corporate concerns are as untitled and far from dividend paying will require much time and management before they become.

Collins, Phil H. and Dr J. R. Terrell spent several years in Brazoria County, near San Antonio, where they bought enough games to have a favorable impression when they returned to Houston. This sounds like a true story of facts of such a combination of merchandizing are not usually stated. --- The Cleveland Call this morning on legislation by telling what happens to a bill in Congress before it can become a law. After it has been considered and referred to a committee, if not "killed," reported out, it comes up for discussion and more attention it says. Then, too, consideration of party interest affect a bill's progress. The party leaders in and out of Congress constantly consult with one another and decide whether a particular measure will help or hurt the cause in the next election; while "belief in the congress and leaders" is the official public opinion. Members of Congress are diligent readers of news articles and are most affected by the public letters and telegrams of men of interest districts than by anything else. Thanks to this attitude of deference and public opinion and party interest, a new powerful influence is the party legislative causes, called in one of the houses to discuss public measures. All this indicates the necessity of arranging public sentiment on the part of the passage of the Dyer bill; its steps are going to be taken to stimulating, before the present session of Congress adjourns. AS TO A RACE SHRINE. I am much impressed with the work of Mr. (Garles) W. Caskey November 1916) with respect to serving Race Sime. However he needed it not another language, but rather a trained language intellectual and literary to our group leaders and work of living so much in our backs, there should be greater tion of thought, investigation search. With the dominance of such new type of ideas and monuments and other remembrances worthy characters will follow. Especially was I interested in memorial suggestion with respect to men and women at the other time we have so calendly audited and used us. As I read these lines, the one of the late Chief Justice Salmon F. Chase, in his ecology of Henry W. Davis, came to mind. The eminent Justice said of Henry Winter Davis "His greatest work is his memorial ment. To him especially belongs the great honor of breaking the bonds of every slave in his native state. And yet, comparatively few fell dead in the entire State of Maryland ever heard of the name of Henry Winter Davis. Just think of the year 1844, conditions of that period, and to the following words, in Southern, Henry Winter, Davis appealed to Governor with the problem under the which exist: "The folly of our war and the wisdom of the Almighty inscrutable purpose, having Negroes to come here and plumb here, they have a right to remain here and they will remain here to sullable of recorded time. And they become our counsels or whether they blend, or remain in their people, your posterior. These are things which we can trol. Laws do not make us make them. If God makes our counsels, then they will work problem which. He has to work out, and if God has made them uneradicable infertility, not make one hair white or add one cub, to their stature.

On Friday night, people in the vicinity of the Lafayette Theatre about eight o'clock were attracted by a large crowd of men gathering in front of the Lafayette Barber Shop, apparently the crowd was looking at an advertisement that was being placed in the window announcing prewar props on hair cuts and shaves, but in reality they were attracted there by the presence of the former world's champion, Jack Johnson, who was one of the best to take advantage of the reduction in the price of havers. Most of the men in the crowd were on their way to the Fifth Army to watch the weekly boxing show held there, but so long as the former Champion remained in the barber shop these were returned to leave. As the organization was anxious to have the show stop, Jack Johnson was invited to go up, and accept the invitation. After the first champions contest, the town's champion was presented to the fans, and received "Cyclamen Wilhelm of New Orleans made his debut in New Orleans in early 1880s.

As he climbed into the ring, someone in the balcony shouted, "Look out old man!" This remark brought forth the report from Jack that he was like old whiskey, the older he was the better he became. He further stated that he could take away a lighter that the management might select for him and make him look as though his hands were tied in front him. It was later stated that the management would select a lighter to suit the former champion on the first 12 nights in December. Johnson also declared that he gave Tex Rickard his first start as a tight promoter and now Rickard was trying harder than ever to keep the colored box on his court.

They hopped out to well earned returns and came back with the same idea. Both boys have worked out steps of their own and the brand of dancing is far away from the road. It is hard to tell which of the pair is best, for one shoot a step over to a bang and the other follows with something as good. Perhaps Maxie is the bit more spectacular. "Maxie and George are a pair of stepping foods." They have a fast big time offering. Monday night they might have "whatever" the show but probably were held down in running time." AT ROOSEVELT THEATRE Scenes of unrivalled beauty will be a feature of Sidney Franklin's "Not Gully," which is to be shown at the Rosewood Theatre, Saturday, November 20th. Director Franklin has made many beautiful pictures while directing Mary Pickford and Norma Talmadge, but it is claimed that the settings in this production will contrain them all. Many of the scenes of "Not Gully have their roots in India along the shores of the Ganges. Thousands of native women will be seen bathing in the cool river. The world famed temples at that country add great beauty to this production specially the scenes showing the Taj Mahal, the pure white plumable meusoleum built at Agra, India, by the Mogul Emperor Shah Jahan, in memory of his favorite wife. The tea houses around the harbor of Rangoon, and the curious pearl boats are other features.

THE LINCOLN THEATRE Rex Ingram, producer from Metro of "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse," has a worthy successor to that screen masterpiece, in his production of "The Conquering Power," seen Thursday at the Lincoln Theatre. The action is again in France, but this time in a small provincial town, where a story of love and greed is pictured, with intensive intimacy in an atmosphere of family life. It is the powerful story of Balkac's "Eugenie Grandet," translated to the screen by June Mathit, and superbly enacted by a cast that includes the exquisitely beautiful Alice Terry Eugenie, Rudolph Valentino as the Parisian dandy, who wins her love. Ralph Stoneman as Eugenie's miserly old father, and Edward Connelly, Edna Dumary, George Atkinson, Willard Lee Hall, Mary Hearn, Eugene Pouyet and Ward Wing. The photography is by John F. Sestr and the technical direction by Ralph Barton and Amos Myers. LAFAYETTE THEATRE The talent for emotional and dramatic acting which has made Norma Talmadge one of the foremost screen stars is again evidenced in her latest picture, "Tate Sign on the Door," which is being shown at the Lafayette Theatre on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, November 24th, 25th and 26th. Without doubt this is Miss Tallmadge's best production. Her acting is superb. She is seen in the role of Ann Henniwell, a pretty monographer who, through no fault of her own, is compromised by her employer's am. Frank Devereaux, white in a questionable cafe. She marries another man of wealth and position, but later Devereaux comes back into her life. Her husband shoots Devereaux with the fellow's own pistol, and does not know that his wife has witnessed the tragedy. An intensely dramatic situation arises when she is moved by her love for her husband to tell the authorities that she killed Devereaux. The plot has a logical and unexpectedly happy ending. -MON ATHLETIC CARNIV GIVEN Car nue B AT Thirteenth Regime Jefferson and S -MONSTER ATHLETIC CARNIVAL AND RECEPTION Thirteenth Regiment Armory Brooklyn Jefferson and Summer Avenues Friday Evening, NED GOURDII NED GOURDIN, of Harvard And a Host of Other Will Positi 2---Bands GAME BEGINS 7:30 P.

At the appointed hour the pastor preached, using as his subject, "The Golden Rule." In his introductory remarks, he referred to the Thanksgiving season and the President's Thanksgiving Proclamation. The speaker declared that it was one of the finest expressions of reverence and adoration of Jehovah ever uttered by any President.
