Falsifying Scholastic Record Charged Against Students; N.A.A.C.P. Official Dissects The Garvey Movement
E.H. Miller, Columbia University, Alleges That Students Sought Admittance to New York School By Altering School Record
Other Acts of Culpability
Another Student is Charged With Registering in Philadelphia School After Making False Statement as to Extent of Scholastic Training
E. H. Miller, who gives his address as "Teachers College, Columbia University, New York City, Box 43," and holds degrees of A. B. B. S., and A. M., makes serious charges against certain foreign Negro students who, he alleges, falsified their former school records in order to secure admittance to New York and Pennsylvania schools of repute and standing.
Mr. Miller definitely charges that one individual came to New York during the past summer after having completed two years at the Dunbar High School in Washington. After coming to New York this man sent to the Dunbar High for his scholastic record. In an effort to make up for time wasted on his first visit to New York, this young man, aged 20 or 27, proceeded to increase the number of credits on the report and then applied for admission to DeWitt Clinton High School.
FAMOUS "HELL FIGHTERS" PICTURES AGAIN READY FOR THE AGE READERS
The Publisher of THE NEW YORK AGE, after many months, has again secured a supply of copies of the famous oil painting, "First To The Rhine," showing the Old 15th (New York) Regiment, the "Hell-Fighting Fifteenth," as the French called it, as it actually appeared in action, advancing through Alsace, France, as advance guard of the 16th French Division.
The painting by S. J. Woolf, one of America's leading portrait painters, shows the Old 15th with Col. William Hayward in command, accompanied by Regimental Adjutant Ferguson and Lieut. Tessier, the French liaison officer. Many of the figures of the men are actually portraits.
The reproduction rights belong exclusively to THE AGE. It is printed on heavy calendared paper, 8-by 12 inches, by four-color process in the original colors and is a faithful replica of the mammoth oil original, which now hangs in the home of Col. Hayward.
Only subscribers to TIFE AGE can secure these copies. Send $2.25 for one year's subscription and coat of mailing, and the picture will be sent. Old subscribers, not in arrears, can get the picture by paying a year in advance, plus 25 cents for cost of mailing.
Subscribers who paid for the picture during 1920, but who were not supplied before the issue was exhausted, will receive their copies as soon as they can be forwarded.

The school authorities, according to Mr. Miller, in New York City, and state challenge rigidly credits from outside schools, and so the credits offered went down. As his plan, failed in New York, this man, Mr. Miller declares, left the city, claiming that he was going to Philadelphia Mr. Miller wrote some twenty books in which he thought this young man might seek entrance, finally located in Washington, where he was evidently trying to get into Armstrong High, but found that his record had preceded him. Mr. Miller points out that it would be impossible to giftar records of credentials in this manner if the original school mailed its record direct to the school to which the transfer was to be made instead of to the student.

stances of foreign Negroes who come to America only for what they can get. There are hundreds of others like them in New York City. They come for economic, educational and professional advantages only. They get have advantages which they could never hope to enjoy in their native land. Many of them are not bothered about becoming citizens, but feel intend to live and thrive at expense of the American Negro.
A Hindrance. Not a Help
"I do not for one minute decay the foreign Negroes who come to our shores to make America their home and who come here to be a part of the body politic; but it is to men like the above mentioned and those seeking economic advantages only of whom I speak. All the foreign Negroes who are here today are enjoying more prosperity than they could have ever dreamed of in their native land. Even though they owned and ruled absolutely the half dozen islands from which they came they have more opportunity here. They come here and boast about how good racial conditions are in their native land. Why do they come here?
"Men like these are only a hindrance to the American Negro, and not a help. We do not need this type of men. We could get along very well without them. We must face realities as they are. From the bad conditions that do exist here we can only hope to reach what ought to be by dealing with the situations as they are and using reason and good practical common sense. We will not get anywhere by impractical visions. We must work in cooperation and harmony for a common destiny. When selfishness and only economic advantages are sought principles are laid aside and morale lowered.
"Men can deceive, men can boast and seek to dominate, but in the end they will inevitable get their just rewards and punishments. It pays to be a man at all times. It pays to cooperate with one another in a common cause. It pays to do honest work to achieve an end or aim. It always pays to be on the square."

Albert Wolcott Joins Ranks of Heroes by Gallant Rescue
Plunges Into Water Churning About Bows of Transatlantic Liner and Saves Life of Fellow Workman Pulled Into Water by Tangled Rope
Albert Wolcott, a longshoreman, a native of Barbadad, but now living in New York City, enrolled himself among the life-saving heroes. Wednesday, November 30th, when he dived from Fier 59 and dragged a fellow longshoreman, Albert Williams, out of the black water boiling madly about the bow of the White Star liner Adriatic as it was being warped out of its dock enroute to the shores of England.
The bow hawse line, heavy and cumbersome, which held the ship fast to the pier, had been cast, aloose and was being hauled on board the vessel by a steam winch. Attached to the hawse line was a light hand line, so that if the big ship was swung out of her course by the tide the hawse line could be retrieved and made fast to a stanchion on the pier. Williams and Wolcott, with other workmen, were tending this hand-line, the light rope being coiled over Williams' arm.
was seen in the water making a desperate effort to free himself from the rope. The ship kept backing out and Williams was between the vessel and the dock. Then Wolcott came into the lime-light. Long as the story is, only a few seconds had passed, and Wolcott had dived from the pier. He swam easily and swiftly to his companion and seized him by the head. Swimming as he had never swum in the shark-infested waters off Barbados, Wolcott rowed Williams towards Pier 59 where help was given in getting the rope-encumbered man from the water. Eager hands helped Wolcott to the pier level. Williams was taken to the office and restorative measures applied.
Wolcott searched for dry clothing, remarking that the main difference between New York and West Indian waters was the absence of sharks up here.
The tide was very strong, its recent heights being above that for many a day, and the ship's movement caused a suction which drew mud from the river's bottom and churned the water into angry whirlpools. In some way, the handline did not uncoil freely from Williams' arm, and in a trice he was pulled into the water with several feet of rope tangling about him. The steam winch continued hauling in the heavy hawse, thus pulling Williams to the surface, while the weight of the hawse and the suction of the water dragged him down. He was being twisted, hoisted and ducked with 'frightening succession' Orders were given by the Adriatic's chief officer to cut the hawse line, but no knifes was at hand. The men at the which regrouped it and the entire length of the hawse was all off the handline.

Seligman Interviews Garvey And Writes His Impressions
Reaches Conclusion That Despite Faith in Himself, Garvey's Ventures Are Neither Realistic nor Sound
A Dangerous Mixture
Headquarters a Fantastic Realm in Which Cash Sales of Shares and Imminence of Destiny Strangely Commingle-Dramatized Conflict of Races
"Despite all of Marcus Garvey's protestations, however, despite even the faith which he may have in himself, the ventures about him are found to impress many as neither realistic nor sound. They are not commerce undiluted. They are not competent politics. Nor are they passionately devoted to the idea undefiled. They are a dangerous mixture of all of those elements, most dangerous of all for Mr. Garvey and for the individuals who are moved to give him their confidence and their funds."
Thus does Herbert L. Seligman, author of "The Negro Faces America," and director of publicity for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York City, epitomize the result of an interview with Marcus Garvey, head of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and its subsidiaries, including the Black Star Line of transatlantic steamships, which interview was published in the magazine section of the New York "World" on Sunday, December 4th, 1921.
The article was headed, "NEGRO CONQUEST—DREAMS OF AFRICA'S MAN OF DESTINY." Marcus Garvey, the Green-and-Purple-Robed Provisional President of Africa, Surrounded by His 'Knight Commanders of the Sublime Order of the Nile.' With a Navy of Three Rickety Old Ships, Headquarters Near Spuyten Duyvil and a Huge Propaganda-Organization, is Inflaming the Heart of the Oppressed Black Man With Visions of the Coming World-Leadership of an African Republic."
Mr. Seligman tells of the headquarters-building at 56 West 135th street, New York City, which houses "the officers of the Black Star Steamship: Line; of the 'Negro World,' a weekly publication; and, finally, of the President General of the Universal Improvement Association, who stEyles himself in addition, Provisional President of Africa * * * and the African Communities League, or in Mr. Garvey's own words, 'the business side of the Universal Improvement Association.' Continuing, Mr. Seligman writes.
"There in 15th street, New York City, is the centre of all of such dreams of African hegemony, of share vending, of idealist talk as it would be difficult to imagine, let alone to duplicate. At the centre of those dreams, spinting them like so many webs, writing, travelling across the city to Liberty Hall to exhort huge crowds, and centering in himself the uncertain complexities of the business ventures is Marcus Garvey, West Indian Negro.
"To walk into those offices is to enter a fantastic realm in which cash sales of shares and the inminence of destiny stranglely commingle. Now that there is anything bizarre about Marcus Garvey despite the green and purple robes he sometimes affects. He might, to judge by his appearance, be a politician or a professional man. Of medium height, his head set close down upon broad shoulders, his slender, longish arm terminating in narrow hands, he presents a sedentary, almost a studious type except that one feels the orator if not the actor not far beneath the surface. His manner is easy and his voice agreeable, with a slightly English intonation that falls strangely upon the ears of Americans unaccustomed to natives of the British West Indies.
"Nor is there anything bizarre in Marcus Garvey's talk. It is fluent, ever compelling, if one does not stop to check him up. And this one is tempted sometimes not to do. For Marcus Garvey knows something of what is going on in the world. He tells of printies he worked in, of publications he edited in Jamaica. Costa Rica, Panama, of studies in London. He can discourse of the things that are worrying the British Premier. He has no illusions about the commonplaces that pass for, realities in our civilization. In fact, he is quite calmly waiting for the present white civilization to go to pieces, and in fifty years he believes the native population of Africa will have seized their continent because the white governments—England, France, Italy—that now hold African territory, will have been overthrown.
"Mr. Garvey sees the problem in the large. Nothing less than contents and hundreds of millions of people will stead him. His imagination is capacious, active. There is something of the poet in this ability to think in terms of the craarest Realpolitik, of power and of 'might makes right—such morality as white Christian civilization has taught the black man—and out of these elements to conjure the destruction of Europe and the rise of invincible and eternal Ethiopia. Marcus Garvey is something of a poet and much of an artistic juggler.
"For what are his means—aside from the robes and ceremonies, the knight-hoods and titles with which he captures the popular imagination? Three more or less seaworthy vessels, not one of which a cautious mariner would likely select to cross the seas to Africa. A laundry. A huge hall. An enormous organization for disposing of 'shares'. And chiefest of all, a weekly newspaper in which proclamations can be spread, broadcast, promises made, the appetite for power and dignity, the hope for freedom and riches whetted. So far as means for effecting his ends are concerned, Marcus Garvey is trunk—was frank with me—in admitting they were chiefly words, words written and spoken. He did contend that his organization had sent 'six technical men' to Labarion that sawmill machinery destined for that country was awaiting transport, possibly in one of the Black Star steamships. But not Marcus Garvey nor any of the business ventures of Negro organizations with which he has surrounded himself are being relied upon to usher in the day on which the African Government's fleet will patrol the seas and enforce respect the world over for its nationals. That day is to come on the wings of Evolution, the new diety of civilized man, which Marcus Garvey has adopted lock, stock and barrel.
"It is at the juncture of mysticism and share-selling that one is apt to find the artistic jugling. In the case of Garvey such a juncture occurs in the establishment known as the 'African Redemption Fund.' To this end colored people, in the name of African liberty, are invited to give. It is frankly what we in America know as a 'money-getting proposition.' clothing however in the language of hope that speaks up the four hundred million Negroes of the world into one solid body, moving toward the glorious objective of a free and redemption. Africa. In the same breath, if not in the same sentence, appeal is made to colored people to support the Universal Negro Improvement Association by investing in shares of the Black Star Line Corporation whose desire it is to that ships on the seven seas, to carry the commerce of the Negro from country to country and make him one of the great industrial captains of the world."

HANDICAPS TO PROGRESS.
In the world of sport, handicaps are a common device employed to equalize the chances of the contestants, whether they happen to be bipeds or quadrupeds. A rare breed of unusual speed and strength is required to carry a greater weight than others in the same class in order to encourage competition. An athlete with an unusual record on the track is required to give other competitors with an unusual record a handicap of some sort in order to encourage them to compete against him. In athletic competition it is the strong who have to carry the handicaps enforced by the ideal of fair play for all.
In the more serious struggle for life and liberty and the pursuit of happiness on the American plan, this sporting ideal of fair play is practically reversed for the handicaps are laid upon the shoulders of the weak and poor. This state of things is stagnantly brought out in careful study of Problems of the Colored Child by Eugene Kunckle Jenzo, executive secretary of the National Urban League, reprinted in pamphlet form from the Annual of the American Academy of Political and Social Science. Philadelphia. These problems are accounted for because of the economic and social conditions which result from the annual scheme of adjustment of the national scheme of adjustment of child rearing is made to be fulfilled upon this class of the population because, it is asserted, that more than 70 per cent of the Negro population of ten years of age and over 70 per cent of these wage earners are at the unkilled. This in itself constitutes a most serious handicap to the poor's training of the children, many of whom are forced into the ranks of the handicapped at the age when they should be training for future usefulness, one of the most handicaps that do
Whose from such conditions as make
the problem of illiteracy. The
percentage of Negro children in heart
of city and over was stated as 29.4 in
1910. The percentage varied from 79
percent in New York State to 38.7 in
South Carolina. This great difference was due to the inadequacy of school
facilities in the latter state and the pre-
vailing hard way to discourage education
among Negroes in the South. The
average yearly expenditure for the
education of whites in South Carolina
is given as $11.4 against $1.25 for Negro
children. Education at such a cost
is bound to be limited for both classes
of the population. Then again there
are not enough school buildings to ac-
compose the colored children who
apply for admission. The percentages
stated as out of school are: In South
Carolina, 50.2, Florida, 47; Louisiana,
50.4. In the North, while the educa-
tional facilities are vastly greater, the
problem is complicated by the number of
overage pupils, resulting from the mi-
gration movement, truancy and other
Another serious problem affecting the reading of the children of the race is the high rate of infant mortality and the prevalence of diseases of various kinds. In some cases the death rate among the children is very high. A young boy was found in the Infant Hospital of the University of the United States. Neonatal pneumonia in the United States of the Nairobi region is a serious problem, with six per cent greater than that in the white Tanzania. The incidence of tuberculosis and head lice are a serious problem.
and capitalistic exploitation. Too often these neighborhoods become a juvenile ground for the vicious of both race, immune from police interference or public protest. Much of the juvenile delinquency attributed to Negro children is due to this sort of environment, aided by the lack of privacy in the homes, due to overcrowding, and the absence of parental supervision, caused by both parents having to go out to work.
This brief review of the serious handicaps to normal progress, which confront the Negro child, should not cause discouragement. It should rather inspire fresh efforts to surmount these handicaps by seeking to better the conditions pointed out. Remewed attention should be given toward providing educational facilities and making use of tibes already furnished. The movement for better health conditions should be extended so as to reach further into those localities where carelessness and ignorance breed disease and death. The welfare agencies that make the care and protection of childhood their mission should be encouraged to continue and multiply their work.
The handicaps of progress are heavy and numerous, but they can be lightened and lessened by persistent, and courageous effort. As Mr. Jones well says in his closing paragraph,
"Appeals for participation by Negroes in social service programs have been directed on the basis of experiment demonstrating that where Negro children are provided with the same prophylactics their health, crime, illiteracy and dependency rates are reduced to proportions comparable with those of white children."
An enlightened public sentiment is needed to provide the remedies called for to meet the situation. One of the strongest factors in creating and stimulating such a sentiment is the National Urban League. It is not true American sporting sentiment to impose handicaps, where they are not required to qualify the chances of the contestants.

FEARFUL PROPERTY OWNERS
Every now and then some of the white property owners of Harlem try to throw a few fists of fear or simulate episode of indignation over the threatened encroachment of Negroes as tenants or purchasers into sections now occupied by whites. As one of the daily papers put it last week, the Harlem Property Owners Association "started to repel an invasion in force of Negroes below 125th street."
At a meeting at 67 West 125th street, Isaac Hyman, president of the association said he was informed there was a plan under way for the colonization of Negroes at 118th and 119th streets and Fifth avenue. A committee was ordered to cooperate with the Harlem Protective Association and other organizations.
Harry Bliehoff, first vice-president of the association, said he thought the invasion could not be stopped. He said the Negro's were law abiding and were desirable tenants from many points of view.
This infection of common sense and sound reasoning by one of their own officers probably cast a damper on the fit throwers and spasm shakers of the meeting, as the further proceedings seemed to have interested them no more. If the white owners of the properties in question find it advantageous to sell them to Negro purchasers or to rent them to Negro tenants, the law or public opinion will not forbid it.
RISEY CHURCH BUILDING
Despite the emmy warmings found in the Holy Scriptures, as to the necessity of building upon a rock, we find many over ambitious pastors, who pursue their congregations to build new edifices upon the sandy foundations of insufficient funds and vain expectations. Two instances of this kind of risky church building have been furnished recently in Harlem.
In one case the unduly ambitious pastor induced his followers to enter upon the project of erecting a new church by getting possession of three dwelling houses, the trusses of which were gutted out. For lack of sufficient funds to complete the remodeling, builders lions were plastered upon the property to such an extent that the equity of the congregation was almost wiped out and the new church was engulfed in the sands of inadequate financiering. In the other case a congregation of about two hundred members was beguiled into the purchase of a church building valued at $150,000. The burden of this debt was entirely too much for the ability of the will to pay it to debt. There is no doubt as well as in the soil of our church management, while the pastor sought fresh fields for expansion. The persons who were responsible for the water of the funds of their flocks were ambiguous to preach in big churches. These ambiguous exaggerated their knowledge of church finances and their members possessed neither the knowledge nor the ability to direct their ambition in the proper channels. It requires more than a course in theology to make the pastor a wise leader of his flock. If he being trained them into church organization and building projects, he could possess some practical business experience, especially if his members are involved in such matters.
Aristotle, pastor and the members
of the trustees boards of their
church, would bear in mind the promise
of the Lord to Saint Peter, as well
as the words of Matthew: Upon
the church will build My church, and
the church will be purified and
sanctified of the ceremonies and churchmen.
VIEWS and REVIEWS
By James Wolden Johnson, Publishing Editor.
HISTORY BY TURULTY.
Mr. Joseph Tumulty, who was Secretary to Woodrow Wilson when he was President, has been for some weeks writing a series of articles in the New York "Times" under the title, "Woodrow Wilson as I Know His." These articles are intended to be an intimate history of Woodrow Wilson while in the White House. Mr. Tumulty has access to information and data which no other writer in the country can have, and therefore what he writes on this subject ought to have value as history.
On the other hand, Mr. Tumulty is confessedly writing as a friend and an apologist. He is, perhaps, striving to be impartial but naturally he cannot but place himself in the position of a defender of his former chief.
What Mr. Tumulty is writing about Woodrow Wilson may some day form a basis of valuable information. But the value of that information will not so much consist in what Mr. Tumulty has said directly as in what he inadvertently discloses. For example, in his thirty-fifth installment he tells about Mr. Wilson's breakdown while on his western trip in the interest of the League of Nations. In it he tells about the effort to oust Mr. Wilson from the presidency and place the Vice-President in his stead. Mr. Tumulty's version of the affair is as follows:
A few days after the President's return from the West and while he lay seriously ill at the White House, Mr. Lansing, then Secretary of State, sought a private audience with Mr. Tumulty in the Cabinet room. Mr. Lansing informed Mr. Tumulty that he had called diplomatically to suggest that in view of the incapacity of the President, it should be arranged to call in the Vice-President to act in his stead as soon as possible. Mr. Lansing is then said to have read the constitutional grounds for such action. The outcome of the interview Mr. Tumulty gives in the following words:
Upon reading this, I coldly turned to Mr. Lansing and said: "Mr. Lansing, the Constitution is not a dead letter with the White House. I have read the Constitution and do not find myself in need of any tutoring at your hands of the provision you have just read." When I asked Mr. Lansing the question as to who should certify to the disability of the President, he intimated that that would be a job for either Dr. Grayson or myself. I immediately grasped the full significance of what he intimated and said: "You may rest assured that while Woodpaw Wilson is living in the White House on the broad of his back, I will not be a party to ousting him. He has been too kind, too loyal and too wonderful to me to receive such treatment at my hands." Just as I uttered this statement, Dr. Grayson appeared in the Cabinet room and I turned to him and said: "And I am sure that Dr. Grayson will never certify to his disability. Will you, Grayson?" Dr. Grayson left no doubt in Mr. Lansing's mind that he would not do as Mr. Lansing suggested. I then notified Mr. Lansing that if anybody outside of the White House circle attempted to certify to the President's disability Grayson and I would stand together and repudiate it. I added that if the President were in a condition to know of this episode he would, in my opinion, take decisive measures. That ended the interview.
It is unnecessary to say that no future attempt was made by Mr. Lansing to institute ouster proceedings against his chief.
Here we get an inside glance at what has all along been more or less a mystery, but more important still is the revealing of a condition which a great many people surmised, namely, that President Wilson was surrounded by a camarilla who were firmly resolved not only to keep the public in ignorance of the President's actual condition but who were also firmly resolved to keep the President in his official position regardless of what his mental or physical condition might be, and this camarilla was not made up of Cabinet officers or army or navy officers, or government representatives, but of the President's Secretary, his physician, and perhaps the close members of his own family.
This is a point which will be dwelt upon by historians in the future.
THE FINDING OF A LOST CIVILIZATION.
One of the most valuable assets that any race or people can have is cultural background. Indeed, cultural background bears about the same relation to a people that "past performances" bear to a race horse. They both compel recognition for what may be accomplished on the ground of what already has been accomplished.
The cultural background or "past performances" of certain peoples have been so great that these certain peoples have been able to maintain their status in civilization to a large degree even after their activities of achievement have considerably slowed down. We have examples of this in the peoples of Greece, of India, China, of Egypt and even Arabia.
One of the greatest handicaps that the Negro has had to contend with in his struggle for achievement and recognition has been the denial that he has or ever has had any cultural background. The general accepted idea is that through all of the centuries and ages as far back as the human mind can penetrate Negro peoples have never been more than showling savages. This idea is held out not only by the uneducated masses but by many people who, at least, suppose they are educated.
And it is not strange, for this theory of civilization is even today, being taught in grammar schools and high schools and "fresh water" colleges. Take up the geographies from which the children of America get their first ideas about the races of mankind. From these books they learn that the Negro is "the lowest of all the races;" that in his native habitat, Africa, he has been from the beginning a savage and a cannibal; and that it is only through the efforts of missionaries of the Christian churches and the efficacy of the machine guns of the great nations that he is being raised to a place where he can be looked upon even as a human being.
In the books used in high schools and back woods colleges the old Aryan theory of civilization is still being taught. Students are leaving these schools firm in the belief that what we call civilization has been from the beginning, is now, and always will be the product of the white man. These theories are due in some degree to ignorance about the past but in a large degree they are due to a deliberate conspiracy. For the past hundred years or so, white men have been industriously writing books to prove that everything in the world worth while should be credited to the white race. In this process they have not let anything embarrass them, not even the facts. Whenever they have come across a worthwhile accomplishment which could not be credited to the white race they have gotten around it simply by claiming that the people to whom the accomplishment did belong were white. And so Egyptians and East Indians and Arabs and even Abyssinians have been classified as white people.
The denial of all cultural background to the Negroes of Africa and the classification of them as carnibals and savages are contrary to the obvious facts. In truth they constitute merely a heptotic tradition which has been cultivated and spread for perplexing purposes. The overwhelming mass of the population of Africa bears
and which were adequate for them. These governments were frequently headed by wise and statesman-like chiefs and kings. These great masses of Africa have always cultivated the soil kept domesticated animals, made utensils and tools, practised the trades and the arts; and they always had a religion. Such men are not savages.
Indeed, this writer has often gone further and claimed that the first impulse towards civilization originated in Africa, along the upper regions of the River Nile; and that, because records have been lacking to completely substantiate such a claim, it has been possible to deny that the Negro race had a cultural background in Africa. But within the last twenty years the record has been slowly coming to light. At about the beginning of this era came the discoveries of the excavation at Benin on the West Coast of Africa, and now comes the discoveries made by the Harvard Expedition, which has been making excavations in Ancient Ethiopia. They have been working for ten years about half way up the River Nile in what is now known as the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan, a good distance south of Ancient Egypt. There they have discovered the lost civilization of Ethiopia—the Ethiopia so often referred to in the Old Testament and by the ancient Greeks.
This Ethiopia was often referred to as a great and powerful country. The Bible relates how the King of Ethiopia marched against the King of Judah. This is the Ethiopia whose history has been uncovered by the Harvard scholars. They have found the records of twenty kings and fifty-five queens, running back about seven hundred years before Christ. They have found that five of the Kings of Ethiopia ruled over Egypt and the territory watered by 2,000 miles of the Nile; that they had sent their Ambassadors to the courts of Assyria and Western Asia. The Harvard archaeologists, by careful study of the inscriptions found in the tombs of these kings and queens, have been able to construct a full chronological-list of the rulers of Ethiopia during this period and to give the world a knowledge of the conditions and developments of the remarkable arts and crafts of the Ethiopian people.
By degrees the whole record will be unfolded which will show that the Negro in Africa was an important contributor to the civilization of the world and does possess a great cultural background. When this fact is generally acknowledged it will make the Negro's present status higher and his future achievement easier all over the world.
One of the ways in which the building up of a race can beat be accomplished is in making the most of opportunities, and if the opportunities do not materialise, of making the opportunities themselves. In pursuing this course, it is essential to possess and to exercise confidence, confidence in one's fellows as well as in one's self. Continual suspicion of the motives of others and mutual distrust will not et one anywhere.
On the other hand it is equally necessary that confidence be not displaced, either in the power and ability that one can bring to bear himself, or on the part of others. Here is where education and training are necessary in any line of useful endeavor. The education that cannot be used toward some practical purpose is a failure, unless it has an outlet in rendering life better for its possessor. The chief end of education should be to fit man for service to himself and to his fellows.
Take the case of those young men of the race who have studied and qualified themselves to be certified public accountants. They must possess confidence in their training and ability to audit accounts. More than that, they must inspire confidence in that ability in others, so that they may secure the opportunities to practice their profession. Those in the community who have accounts to be audited, must feel and show their confidence in the ability of these accountants to analyze and prove figures, by giving them work of this kind.
Then there are opportunities to be made for the employment of our specialists in other trades and professions by the concentration of work in their hands. If the colored people of Harlem would concentrate their printing by giving it to the establishments run by men of the race, it would make a volume of work that would keep all the colored printers busy the year round. If the physicians of the race would concentrate their prescriptions, by advising their patients to take them to a colored druggist, instead of one drug store there would be need for several under race management and ownership in Harlem. This merely illustrates how opportunities can be made that would aid in the upbuilding of the race. With confidence, concentration and combination of resources, the volume of business could be magnified to a much greater extent than at present.
ATLANTA COUNCIL WORRIED
The members of the City Council of Atlanta, Ga., recently became so wrought up over the possibility of the mingling of the two races in church or in school, that they passed an ordinance prohibiting joint worship by whites and Negroes in Atlanta churches, or attendance upon the same schools. The member who had the foresight to provide against the catastrophic results to be expected from such a mingling of the races, was Councilman Walter A. Sims, whose name will undoubtedly go down into history as the champion of the purity of the white race.
But Colleenman Sims' great effort came to nangit through the hardheaded and unamypathetic attitude of Mayor Keys, who promptly vetoed the ordinance passed against supersity away to the effect that the ordinance "will and does invade that which is a matter of conscience with a great many people" and would "capture a great deal more trouble and irritation than it would allay." This attitude of common sense and tolerance shows that all Georgia mayors are not built on the times of the specimen at Seymour.
But the mostly just not preferred to stay here. Unsurprisingly, public opinion
I have just made a special trip and a personal inspection and I am prepared fully to confirm the statements of Councilman Sims that white children are in the Negro schools here. I have been through Clark University and all the other Negro private schools here, and am prepared to prove my case. I want to ask the aid of Councilman Sims, and all other people, in making such a thing as I am prepared to prove, impossible in the future. Are we really interested in the fact? Shall the blood of our white race sit side by side with the blood of the Negro race in these schools? I am a sojourner here, but I can be reached by any interested party for the present at 806 South 16th street, Birmingham, Ala. And if it needs proving, I will prove it: That white children in all of these Negro private schools ARE THEIR MOTHERS ARE COLLORED
This is the real evil. Can we not get an ordinance to combat it? WILLIAM PICKENS.
This confirmation of Councilman Sims' charges did not bring the aid and comfort that should have been expected from such a concrete argument for racial purity. The Atlanta newspapers did not display, the letter on their front pages, if indeed they published it at all. So far no councilman has introduced an ordinance to combat the real evil pointed out.
In fact it looks to the observer from afar off as if the council had merely indulged in a hypocritical gesture, which it now wants to forget. The honors of the incident so far seem to lie with the Mayor and Mr. Pickens.
Commenting on the Y. M. C. A. situation in Harlem, the Nashville Clarion said:
The self-respecting colored people of New York City are uttering boldly their protests against the retention of a colored Y. M. C. A. secretary on the ground that he has conducted himself (morally) in such a manner as to destroy his usefulness. A white board continues to employ this secretary on the protest of the best colored people. It seems that these self-perpetuating boards, whether they be white or colored, are laws unto themselves; that they can defy the people at will and there is no help for it. All self-perpetuating boards give the people all the trouble they are able to bear.
Both the central board of white directors and the minority of colored members of the local board of management continue to ignore the protests against the retention of an official, who has lost his usefulness.
"Get rich quick" schemes presented by the fake stock-salesman and promoter are thus denounced in the Colorado Striper:
There is one sure rule of guidance in all cases where smooth-tongued canvases, either white or black, call at your door with a plea for you to part with hard-carned dollars, and that is to turn a deaf ear to every appeal. Their interest is not in your welfare, but in the flattering commissions they receive from sales, regardless of the value of the fading sold. Tearful repentance avails nothing when the character of the swindle, becomes known. The wime is all the more monumental when carried on in the name of the church, welfare society or supported charity. It is sometimes a convincing subterfuge to stock on a little Christmas money at this season of the year by a false appeal to "race royalty." Keep your dollars in your pockets; be content with small but consistent savings, remembering ever that "all is not gold that glitters."
Any enterprise which promises extraordinary profits should be regarded with caution, as sound propositions of that company are not known to depend on ordinary means to warrant complete success.
who often work at $1.25 per day, be used of the old style method of "waging" men, which we interpret as meaning arrest for vagrancy. It all adds.
But the construction placed upon the Negroes who refused to go to New Caney in answer to a call of a law mill man of that place at a wage of $2.25 does not to the Observer in lieu in the least, as it seems from the articles in the daily papers, white men were wanted for this grade of work in the simple reason, there was no man in quarters for them. We are surely in should loaf when he and his land are deprived, but to go into some more interior towns to work is far worse than the chain gang in a city.
When the chain gang is prevented a lesser evil, the conditions required to must be abnormale.
Commenting on the fact that uniform differ in various countries, the National Journal and Guide says:
It has been testified before thegressional Committee involving the dolings of the official of the Occupation in Haiti, that they really eaten white marines. They is gruesome enough, like the blacks in this country, and that probed to the bone clean the flesh thereof. But it could savage to alluge that the country black in the United States and certain white in Haiti.
The testimony as to the burning of human beings in the United States and white savages is so overwhelming that bar controversy. Whether they are equally convincing that the nation of Haiti could digest anything as the United States marines want to be seen.
The eminent editor of the Philadelphia Christian Recorder recently, in the discussion of dogma and dogmatic long enough to solve the following question: Diving racial ethics and street car etiquette;
An elderly white woman entered a white man sturred. None noticed her. She was old, and insisted and the car feasted her much. My husband take this seat," said one of the women, lifting his bat. The old lady sat down, but was too tired to thank you.
We were asked, in view of the text that the woman was a white woman should a colored man give her in court, especially when white men were on the car and did not budge. Would it not have been right for the colored man to have kept his seat on the presumption that a colored woman might sit in and no white man would give her a seat?
Furthermore, would not the giving of a seat to a white woman be implied in seeking "social equality?" To all this we have but one answer. Let the Negro be a gentleman under all circumstance. Because a certain number of white men are not gentlemen there is no reason why a Negro should not be a gentleman. We may copy to better state of white men's conduct, but never the worst side. And we may add that there are white gentlemen who will give their seat to an elderly colored lady. Solomon in his palmiest days could not have evolved a more sagar in solution.
The Pittsburgh American paid in respects to the Congress which adjourned last month in the following terms:
Another Republican Congress has adjourned leaving colored people to reflect on naught but empty promise and bitter disappointment. The failure of the, Dyer Anti-lynching bill and the failure of a Republican majority in the Senate to confirm the nomination of Henry Lincoln Johnson are the two flagrant sins of omission chargeable to the adjourned Congress.
Evidences of dissatisfaction with the lack of performance by the last congress are present on all sides. If the record is not bettered before long, the party in power will have to pay the penalty.
---
Replying to the charge that the Negro is drifting from the Republican party, the St. Louis Argus countryside as follows:
The facts are: The Negro is just beginning to wake up to the realization that the Republican party of today, not the party as founded by the two fathers; men like Lincoln, Grant and Roosevelt. The Negro has changed to the Republican party because of a principle; a principle of all men united and none down; a principle that all men are created free and equal; a principle that the government owes to every equal protection of the law. There are the principles that represent one hundred per cent. American. The Negro believes in those principles heart soul, and thus we claim for ourselves to be the only one hundred per cent Republicans in the party.
The present day leaders have left principles of the party, and have called the name with them. They are saying under false colors, and that is many of the thinking men and women of the race have refused to follow.
Another evidence that the race has begun to think in matters political. The outcome of this thinking process will probably depend on local conditions and issues.
The modern newspaper headline artist has no hesitation in changing facts, or even governments, to fit its purposes.
One of this stripe made a monarch out of the president of Liberia, when he announced in bold black type "Liberian King Sails on War Vessel."
Needs of the Whites
Certainly we need more and better education and wider leadership as his repair of it; and we need it not only for the colored hat for the white people of the South. The President made no mistake in emphasizing that point; even if the 81st made his Negro the goat of the colored hat the steet of the whites

MUSIC NOTES
A "Slumber Song" by Meyerberr, "Ween, O grieving worm eyes," by Massenet, and a "Laughing Song" by Sequin, made up a group of songs by German, French and Spanish composers. The printer transformed the first two to "Meyerberr" and "Massenger," respectively and this represents a type of carelessness when our artists should go to some points to counteract. Care in writing out the names of composers and the titles of compositions would help, but the main thing to be desired is that mental attitude which will do away with what seems to be a prevalent feeling that typographical errors in programs are not important. Students of music who are not in position to acquire text books and reference works are helped to a knowledge of the correct names of composes and titles of compositions when the programs are carefully looked over and errors eliminated.
Other numbers on Mime. Brown's program were "Four Leaf Closer" (Brownell), "Wake up!" (Phillips), "Irish Song Fat" (Wheeler), and "Motherless Child" (Fisher). By special request, the singer gave "Swance River" and "Coming the fire" to the evident entoument of the fairly large audience present.
Miss Nathalie Doxey assisted in the dual capacity of accompanist and reader. She gave two recitations her burgee characterization of a lodge meeting being especially well received. Mime. Brown and Miss Doxey were guests of honor at a Dutch supper served by women of the church following the recessal.

AT PUBLIC SCHOOL 119
More than 800 boys and girls of
when 70 were colored children, par-
ticipated in the "America's Making"
presentation and play presented Wednesday,
attention to the teachers and pupils
at Early School 119, West L3D street,
Manhattan. The production included
four episodes and a concert play, and
accented the Negro contribution to
American society.
In the first episode, "America Wonderland of Sun and Sea," the raw material from which the future nation was to be developed were represented. Children from the kindergarten through 2A presented the "Snowman Circling the Sun," in windy and butterflies that flared here and there among the spring and summer flowers. Little dancers presented their turn in characteristics of the Spartan theme through (merav), (corinth), (dutch), (boston), and (grance) settlers. Lily Wagner played the part of the Sun.
In the second episode "America, Land
in the heart," she is invited to an ex-
member of novelties for the Purpose
of the United States, and included, a
novelist, "The Purchase
of Manhattan" from the Inns by
Luther Kendall. The was followed by
words of love in which new fea-
tual expressions are an inspiring acrostic
stimme, attack horror into the heart
of the settlers. The coming of Progress
(Aurabel Dasy) broke the spell woven
by the witches. After a chorus,

with "Simon stars" was formed, 150
children from the 3A and 3B grades.
Immigration was represented in a tableau representing eunice nationalist, Gertrude Martin, ten years of age, entertained the immigrants with rendition of Mendelsohn's "Spring Song" on the violin. A clever scene described the importance to foreign commerce of the "Exchange of Coins". This gave way to a Russian dancer, which in turn was succeeded by the flag, now grown to include forty-eight stars. The singing of the "Star Spangled Banner" endel the episode.
The third episode perhaps the most striking of all, was called "America, Land of Hope and Glory," and was an epic of the achievement of the Negro race. After the opening chorus and Dance of the Dawn, Aunt Jemima and Topper were presented in a little comedy skit. A realistically arranged plantation scene was accompanied by the singing of "Negro Spirituals." An interesting feature of the display of posters (Health and Happiness, Vocational Opportunity, and Academic Outlook) was the exhibition of a list of those colleges and high schools which welcome colored Students. At the close of the episode the Red Cross paid tribute to King Cotton.
"America, Land of Light," was an apt preface of modern America "Fire," "Water," and "Steam" danced their explanation of the motive power of industry. The influence of the press was acknowledged by four winged "Mercurials" (reliable, lithograph, telephone, and wireless) who deliver messages from Santa Clus, Governor Miller, President Harding, and Mars, respectively. A chorus, "These Things Shall Be," and a series of posters, "Cycle of Progress," were followed by a playlet, "The Greatest Gift," written by Miss Florence N. Tremper. The "greatest gift" that immigrants have brought to America is children. In return America gives education.

Scranton, Pa.—In spite of the fact that the Negro had no official representation on any of the committees in the recent Community Service Chest Drive, November 10th, recognition of us as a vital factor in every effort put forth for community welfare, was forced upon them, when the Rev. Wm. McKinley Dawkins, pastor of Bethel. A. M. E.

THIN PEOPLE SHOULD TAKE PHOSPHATE
Says nothing like plain Argo-Phosphate to put on firm, solid, stay there death and muscle and increase strength, vim, vigor and nerve force.
Physicians claim there is nothing that will increase weight, strength and endurance like organic phosphate commonly known by the druggist, as argiphosphate; it is inexpensive and is sold by all leading druggists everywhere under a guarantee to give satisfaction or money refunded. Weakness and thinness are usually due to starved nervous conditions.
Our bodies need more phosphates than are contained in the foods we eat. If you wish a more rounded figure and plump well-developed arms, neck and bust in place of hallows you should simply take plump argon phosphate it it bounds up and restores run-down nervous conditions by phosphatizing the system. It transforms the appearance and an increase in weight is oftentimes quickly produced.
The in reuse inweight also aids in improving the general health. Sleeplessness, nervousness, lack of energy and ambition quickly disappear.
Fale cheeks are changed to rosy ones and dullness become bright.
Miss Brennan of Atlanta, Ga., who only weighed 20 pounds reports that she gained 10 pound in two weeks time and says argon phosphate has made a different person of her and she never felt better in her life.
Special Notices—Owing to the fact that so many physicians and druggists are recommending argo-phosphate for relieving all personal, work out, delilitated conditions and the unusually large sale for argo-phosphate there will be found in the market numerous substitutes for the genuine article. All imitations are inferior preparation; and owing to its unusual flesh producing qualities it should not be used by any one unless they desire to put on flesh and increase in weight.

Shelburne, Star Player and Coach, Picks All-Star Eleven Base Choice on All-Round Ability-Dartmouth Star Picks, Five From Lincoln, Three From Howard, Two From Union, One From Hampton, on First Eleven
At the end of each football season it is customary for the papers or some expert to pick a mythical all-star eleven, which is supposed to embrace the best players on the various teams in the country or in a particular section of the country. John A. Shelburne, who successfully piloted the Lincoln team to victory this season, has picked a first and second all-star team for THE AGE, which should meet the general approval of those who followed the football teams of the East during the past season. In sending his selection, Mr. Shelburne says—
"In choosing the men, I have endeavored to base my choice on the general all-round ability of the men. So in accordance with this idea I have picked a first and second team. There may be older men not chosen who may lay claim to a birth on this mythical eleven, but certain factors caused them to be left out."
FIRST TEAM -- Skinker, Lincoln, R. E.; Fuller, Howard, R. T.; Melton, Howard, R. O.; Dalney, Hampton, C.; Bellinger, Lincoln, L. G.; T. Williams, Lincoln, L. T.; Ballard, Union, L. E.; A. Jackson, Union, Q. B.; Law, Lincoln, R. H.; Eric, Lincoln, L. H.; Payne, Howard, F. B.

with four games won and two lost. Its
golden era was never erased. Howard
and Virginia Seminary winning
their games by field goal.
At the beginning of the season in

Coach Brook for comment. The
material was far better pay. Your one-

Institute began a season by awampling the Blues on October 15th, by a score of 40 and Simmons College one and a half by a score of 40 in the game with the former. Later on the date feat of making a start in the kickoff. On the following Saturday, Nutrition's veteran team at the University, under the guidance of the team, gained a decision to play.

On November 19th, at Lynchburg, Virginia Theological Seminary scored three points against the Institute squad, when Moore, then Seminary quarterback made a successful drop-kick. On Thanksgiving Day the "Yellowjackets" subdued the Wiltberforce warriors.
The success of the season can be partially attributed to the individual starring done by particular "Yellowjackets". To Holland, end, the laurels can be impartially given for his manifest alibi as an all-round player and his spectacular punting. Eaves, fullback, and Cardwell, his running-mate, can be characterized by their consistency in offensive work, the former being famous for his skill in skirting the ends in long runs, the latter for his unrallied line-backing. In all the games Drewery was a spectacular and dangerous player, one who was always feared. Important was the superb defensive work of Jones at center and of Preston at tackle. The support and the consistent, courageous plunges of Moore, Saunders and Smith were factors that served as a basis for institute's gains. In the last game Wilson replaced Brown at tackle, and this change made a remarkable improvement in the line.

"Duke" Fred Slater of Iowa has been picked for the Western all-conference eleven by Walter Eckersall of Chicago. In picking Slater, Eckersall said "Duke" Slater, giant tackle of Iowa, is given left tackle. Slater should be a candidate for All-American honors. There is little about line play that he does not know, and it is mainly through his efforts that Locke gained so much ground against Notre Dame and Illinois."

Lincoln University, Pa.-Dr. W. G.
Alexander, graduate manager of the
Lincoln football team, has received
from Major M. T. Dean, physical
director at Howard, a letter in which the
Howard official explained that the playing
of an ineligible Howard student in
the Thanksgiving Day game was the
result of forgery impaired upon Coach
Morrison, but no intention to give an
as to what punishment has been made out
to the culprit.
The student was on probation and
Major Dean had made efforts to have
the restrictions removed. During the
game a note was handed the coach sign-
ally, presumably, by President Durkee
and on the signature of the note Coach
Morrison sent the player into the game.
The note was a forgery. Dean extends
to Lincoln an apology and asserts that
there was no intention to uncover upon

CATCHING COLD
CATCHING COLD
It is surprising to read in the daily papers of treatments that our forefathers and grandmothers used for coughs, colds, catarrh, and bronchial affections. It impresses the writer with the fact that modern scientific research had not advanced an idea, when, as a matter of fact, there have been wonderful advancements in the treatment of all diseases and conditions that bring on disease. Just because grandmother used old-fashioned mustard blisters for relieving cold, and congested condition it is no same reason why we should resort to the old antiquated methods, when there have been such wonderful improvements and new discoveries of remedies which are far more effective and less painful to use.
Special Notice:—A druggist said the other day that a customer came into his store and inquired for a mustard plaster and he suggested to the customer that they try. MINTOL as a more modern treatment for congested conditions. The customer accepted the druggist's suggestion and in twenty-four hours the same customer came into the druggist and said: 'How long have you handled MINTOL?' The druggist replied that he had been handling it for some little time and the customer frankly stated that he would never use a mustard cream or plaster for colds, coughs, or any congested conditions again. There are thousands of others who would say the same ashik Druggist's customer did, if they would only try MINTOL. If your druggist cannot supply you we will mail you a jar on receipt of price, 35c. Oce and $1.25 a jar. The Home Relief Laboratories, Boston, Mass.

Jackie Moore of the 153rd, the leatherweight champion of the National Guard, successfully defended his title by knocking out Willie Dumm, the Gatherweight champion of the Naval Militia, in the first round of a scheduled ten round contest.
