Unveiling of Washington Memorial Monument At Tuskegee Is Attended by Thousands, Both Races
Representative Ansorge Denies Having Made Reference to Cadetships in Pre Election Speeches
Former Cadet, H. E. Baker, States That Three Colored Boys Entered the Naval Academy and Four Others Were Nominated
Statements published by the New York World, contained in an alleged interview with Emile Treville Holley, that his recent nomination to a cadetship at the Annapolis Naval Academy by Congressman Martin C. Ansorge of the 21st New York District, was made in consequence of pre-election campaign promises, have met with emphatic denials from both young Holley and Congressman Ansorge.
In a statement to The Age, the prospective candidate declared emphatically that he had made no such statement to the World reporter, and that in other respects as well as the statement published in that paper contained fabrications. What he declares himself to have said was disported and garbled and bore no resemblance to the report as published by The World.
Congressman Ansorge, in Washington, has made a denial equally as emphatic, declaring that he had never, in his campaign speeches, made reference to either Annapolis or West Point. He denied also that a letter from one Richard Williams, president of the Inter-High School Association, had any reference to previous pledges or promises. The Representative declared that in making this appointment he was simply following out the policy outlined by President Harding in his Birmingham, Aha., speech.
Mr. Ansorge said further:
"My appointment of Emile Treville Holley to the United States Naval Academy was not the fulfillment of a campaign pledge, as has been stated. I made no such pledge. Nobody requested it. Nobody presented it. I did it on my own responsibility. I did it in recognition of the publication and value of the 500,000 soldiers in the World War. I did it in recognition of the community advocated by President Harding in his Birmingham (Aha.) speech.
Holley is physically and mentally qualified, bears a fine reputation in the community, is a High School graduate and a freshman at the College of the City of New York. He is popular among his white classmates. He is tactful and will not make himself obnoxious.
"I shall stand, behind Holley and see that he gets a square deal."
There have been three colored cadet-midshipmen appointed to Annapolis and four others were nominated, but failed to secure the final appointment, prior to the recent naming of Emile Treville Holley of New York City by Representative Martin C. Ansorge, is the information contained in a letter written to THE NEW YORK AGE by Henry E. Baker of Washington, D. C., himself one of the three cadet-midshipmen who attended the Naval Academy.
Mr. Ansorge said further:
"My appointment of Emile Treville I Academy was not the fulfillment of a one I made no such pledge. Nobody requested my own responsibility. I did it in recognition of 500,000 students here in the World War. I did it in recognition of community advocated by President Harding Holley is physically and mentally qualified community, is a High School graduate and City of New York. He is popular among and will not make himself obnoxious.
"I shall stand, behind Holley and see."
There have been three colored to Annapolis and four others were the final appointment, prior to the ville Holley of New York City by sorge, is the information contained in NEW YORK AGE by Henry E. himself one of the three cadet-mi Naval Academy.
Mr. Baker's letter corrected statements contained in a news story published in THE AGE of April 1st, in which it was stated that only two Negroes had attended Annapolis, naming Mr. Baker as the first and James F. Bundy as the other.
It appears from Mr. Baker's letter that this statement was an error. The colored cadets who actually attended Annapolis, in order of their admission, were James H. Conyers and the late Dr. Alonzo C. McCleman, who died recently at Charleston, S. C., both being appointed from South Carolina, and Henry E. Baker, appointed from Mississippi. Conyers and McCleman entered in 1872 and Baker was admitted in 1874, instead of 1872 as was stated in Tint Ack story. James F. Bundy of Ohio (not South

The Rev. D. Hiat, power of the A. M. E. Church, presided.
Mr. Vernon, who was a "Y" spymaster and chaplain during the recent World War, serving in East Africa, India and France, spoke of the bravery and the nation to duty of the colored Adriatic and American troops with whom he travelled.

To Straighten the Record.
Mr. Baker's letter is as follows:
Editor of THE NEW YORK ACE:
There have been so many and such persistent misstatements of the facts in the matter of previously appointed colored boys as cadet-midshipmen at the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis, that I deem it proper at this time to present the facts as they are.
The nomination of young Holley of New York, is to my positive knowledge,

Washington, D. C.—If some of our talented but frequently misunderstood political philosophers, leaders and faithful followers of the fortunes of white seekers for political preferment would occasionally soft pedal the "What happened at the convention" stories; if some of our heavy intellectuals would cease for an indefinite period of time the pouring forth freely and widely of their thoughts concerning "SELF-DETERMINATION" for the peoples of Africa, Asia, Russia and Fiji Islands, and if some of our good and learned parsons would tell us less about what Peter said concerning the Epistles of Paul, and more about how to live the life that makes progress here on earth for a race or a people, there might be a chance for a little CONSTRUCTIVE work among our racial group that will permit us, or at least the succeeding generations, to CASH IN with some degree of regularity, and with
at least the seventh, and there may have been others whose cases escape my memory at this time.
There have been three colored boys who were appointed to Annapolis, each as the result of competitive district examinations after their nomination by their congressmen, and who acceded in gaining admission to the Academy by successfully passing the final test combinations at Annapolis. The first two were from South Carolina, namely by James H. Conyers, who entered in 1872, and Alonso C. McClellan, who entered shortly after Conyers. The third was Henry C. Baker of Mississippi, who entered in the Fall of 1874. Neither one of the three were permitted to graduate, but the last one remained there about two years.
The other nominees whom I recall were the late J. Madison Vance of Louisiana; Charles Peters of Washington; and Meshell. Smith and Bandy, both of Abio, though neither of these latter four was permitted to enter the Academy as cadet-mishipman.

It is generally known that in some communities it is difficult, if not impossible, to obtain surety bonds for colored officials of financial institutions or business enterprises that come into direct competition with institutions conducted and controlled by members of OTHER racial groups. It is no secret that in many communities colored home builders and buyers cannot negotiate loans with building and loan associations, if the construction or purchase is to be made OUTSIDE of a definite area in which but little time and money is spent for city improvements.
Barred From Farm Leana
It is a matter of common knowledge that our farmers in many localities, North as well as South, are not allowed to become members of local National Farm Loan Associations through which they can borrow money, at low interest rates, for the purpose of paying off outstanding and burdensome mortgages held by local money sharks, who so frequently charge rates that would Henry Ford.

The bronze monument, which is eight seen tall, rests on an eight foot artistic granite base. The entire monument will form a crescent seat, which is more commonly known as an exedra. At either side of the bronze figures are three striking words which have been taken from Dr. Washington's writings:
"We shall prosper in proportion as we learn to dignify and glorify labor and put brains and skill into the common occupations of life."
"He lifted the veil of ignorance from his people and pointed the way to progress through education and industry.
At the left side facing the figure are these words:
"There is no defence or security for any of us except in the highest intelligence and development of all."

The annual Spring conference of the Association for the study of Negro Life and History opened with a mass meeting at Mother's A. M. E. Zinn Church on Sunday afternoon, April 2nd, at which time an immersing program was rendered, and much enthusiasm around in the work of the association. John R. Hawkins, the chairman of the board of directors of the association presided, and introduced as the first speaker Dr. Carter G. Woodson, the founder and executive head of the association.
Dr. Woodin told of how the Negro raps had been excluded from the history of their country and the world, largely because of the fact that there was no written history of the slaves, and the historians of past years did not have the time or institution to do research work in this direction. He pointed out that for a Negro expatriated to do this work, work and part in the compulsive history of the Negro beyond the world in its意识 of the slaves, he should have entitled this work to this status.

Continuing, he said that prejudice in this country was menacing our present civilization, and that any agency which tended to leasen prejudices should have the heavy support of right-thinking people. In conclusion he urged those present to read the Journal of Negro History, and to support that associated in the work it was doing.
UNVEIL STATUE
TOWASHINGTON
Largest Assembly Ever Seen On Tuskegee Campus Witnessed Reception of Memorial to Founder
8-FT. BRONZE FIGURE
Mounted On Granite Podium. Its Total Height is 16 Feet. South is Represented by Former Secretary of the Navy Josephus Daniels.
Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—The greatest assemblage ever seen on the grounds of Tuskegee Institute, was that which stood with reverent awe while the cloth canopy which covered the memorial monument to the late Booker T. Washington dropped slowly in enshrouding, folds and disclosed to eyes of the thousands of spectators the heroic and inspired statue which had been created by the famous sculptor, Charles Keck of New York, and erected through a fund contributed by some hundred thousand American Negroes.
The scribe represents the leader of Tuskegee Institute the veil of darkness and ignorance from his less fortunate brother who, gazing into the new light, sees a vision of education gained not alone from books but from a mastery of manual trades as represented in the bronze reproduction by the plow, the anvil and the square and compass.
Unveiled on Founder's Day.
The unveiling ceremony was part of the Founder's Day exercises, held on April 5th, following the annual trustee meeting of April 3rd and 4th. The speakers were Dr. Wallace Butterick, chairman General Education Board of New York City; former Secretary of the Navy Josephus Daniels of North Carolina, and Dr. George Cleveland Hall, noted Negro surgeon, of Chicago. The statue was presented to the board of trustees by Emmett J. Scott, of Howard University, who was, for eighteen years, associated with Tuskegee as Dr. Washington's secretary. It was accepted on behalf of the trustees by William G. Willcox, chairman of the board, and by Dr. Robert R. Moten, principal, on behalf of the school.
Dr Buttrick's A4444
Dr. Wallace Buttrick praised Dr. Bocker T. Washington for his moral earnestness, his trained capacity for sustained attention, his conscience and trained intelligence in doing the thing next at hand, his magnanimity, and his Christian spirit of service. Dr. Buttrick related his surprise, when, on the morning of November 15th, 1915, he opened the morning paper in the breakfast room of the Hongkong Hotel in China and read an account of the death of Dr. Washington, the distinguished educator, orator and public man. Dr. Buttrick asked his companions, Dr. William H. Welch and Dr. Siam Flexner, "Are there ten men in America whose death would be featured" on the first page of the leading journals of the Far East, full around the world?"

Leslie's Weebly published: an article on color lises within the Américan
Negro recial group, and the articls was extensively quoted by the Literary Digest,
‘Thee author of the erticle vetam to be a colored’ mua, but it is evident tat the
(eserest.of these two pagers was awakened by two wrong things: 1. A Fitter-
heed. "2 A Malt-srwsh which ls: more dangerous then 8 falsehood, for-it ie
specious and. harder to show wp The Salechiocd is: That the. Negro draws
wore rigid color lines within his own race “than the white race draws aguinit

We 40 not mead 00 prove to American Negross that no suc nigid color
lines ire drawn within the group as are drawn agaimet the group by the Anglo-
Saxon. . The color mania within the groop. is mostly individual, fimicatness and
Seca! ‘pepeliarity dee to heleteries! conditions, But this. has bees’ passing out,
‘even im New Orleans and in Chareston (S.C), whee a’ thres-cofmered rece
problem came sesren to developing. To “asf thet say considerable Yroup of
Negro, Amerieans ase more interested in color than are white people, is not
caly & falee statement, but i tends to offer the white race an excuse for its
Own territie eolor-mania ‘ageinet the ‘whole colored group. :
Tre “seven” colors which the euthor of the article mentions are not only
not “distinct” lines among colored people, but they are, just merely the creation
of the vantevilie stage, the pool room sad the, gey-hearted, and a splendid ex-
bibition of the Mecessnat Negro humor. The old: songs about the “yaller gal”
were: perfectly natural: mulattoes are still in the minority’ but were formerly
rowch raree ten they sre .mow, and any rare feature in any race or ‘group ls
cha object of opecial, sentiment and attention, just as the blondes are among
the whites. But if the white rece were all blonde, with just few dark-haired
peaple scattered ix it, most of the novels and: newspaper lies. would then be
written about the “raven-haired” girls, We have heard songs about “the black
#01,” and those songs would hare been more numerous if the black girls had
been relatively more scarce.
Det the‘ greatest mistale of all is that of the half-truth, for which «
white person, as an outsider, might be excused, but which any intelligent Ameri-
can Negro can easily understand. .Thg American Negro ie accused of being
withost group pride. This illusion iy Getived from the fact that he is pot a
bigot ‘abort his olor and features. And for good reason he is not: because he|
hhas oll the colors ond festurci within his" growp. Physically the colored Ant
can le the most commopotitun group of humans in the world. If he is to boast
of his features, of which one must he boa? How cans group with every’
color known to nature, say: “Iam proud of my color!?” Of which “color?”|
How can 2 group of people with every shape of hair follicle and every texture
of hair {fom practically rousd sod straight Mongolian to almost fiat and kinky
African, boest about “our“iciod” of hair? Which kind? The American Negro|
cannot boost for any particular shape of nose or arch of foot; nor -for blue,
eyes or brown eyes or black eyes, He has all of them. as a group. In a-given
American city, if the Negro is to brag oa his physical features, each Negro
will bave to “brag on hiemeel{:”
In Afrien when a child was born with a nose too nearly scquiline, its
parents have been “known @ bind down its nove and flatten it, But in that
whole trike a sharp or bigh, nose was an abmormality, a deformity. How can|
the American Negro group, which has every color. every feature, ‘and every
characteristic. feel the normelity of or have a boastfol pride in merely ONE?
Can the rtinbow brag about “its color,” ora subtropical lower-bed get stuck
wp on its singular and peculiar tint?—But to say thet this many-fesured
and motly-colored group of people cannot-unite on the “superiority” of any one
Physical feature, is not to prove that they cannot have or have not a pride of
the group. -The American Negro cannot shout for black merely. A shout
for any one color would be « disintegrating, not a unifying, shout. The tie
rast be ether than mere physical features. And a gathering together of colored
Americans for any common purpose. in New York, in Atlanta, or in New
Orleans, is today the modt variegated human thing on earth.
The cry of color (usually the cry of Dleck, which predominates) has
several times been raised in this group, but i, has never yet met with any gen-
eral response for the reason that it is bosh inconsistent and unhelpful.
To say that the Negro iv more color-prejudiced than the whites, is to
exten ebort of tan white rece who would oppress color: “And to say thet the
Amerieen Negro: tithes’ rece pride: {sto mepport thove who haye tried to. dis-
credit the group by claiming thet althovatt no white men wants to be &
Negro, every Negro wants to be a white man. Negroes of all colors and
features have: disputed this: Deugiass, Washington, Moton, DuBois,-and Garvey.

theme of discussions of the service
was “Health Observance.” This sub-
ject, he declared, would be che topic
of ‘discussion in all pulpits of the
Protestant churches of the country on
‘this day. He admonished the congre-
‘gation to read carefully the directions
for health observance and bodily clean-
liness which was ordered by Mores
and recorded in the book of Leviti-
cus, He touched upon the statistical
reports, which show that in some
canes the death rate among our people
is more appalling than among other
races. He pointed out the vital ne-
cessity of careful tention being given
to the cleaning Gi the homes in which
they live. The pastor did not fail 10
emphasize the ‘necessity of a healthy
mind ax well ag a healthy body, The
Festoration of a diseased mind to its
original healthy conditions can. be
brought about only through the opera
tion of divine power. He pointed out
the ability and willingness of the Lord
and Saviour Jesus Christ to wholly
cleanse the diseased soul. After all,
the divine purpose of Jehovah in the
creation was: and still is, according to
Bible teaching, that man might live
eternally to glorify his Creator. Only,
through the living of obedient lives
can we fulfill the purpose of aur crea-
thon. The sermon was indeed instruce
tive. helpful and inspiring. At the
conclusion of the sermon nine persons
were received into the church.
Dr. John R. Hawkins, the general
secretary of the A.M. E. Church, was
present. and made an interesting talk.
At the close of the moming service
Dr. Brown preacied the funeral of
Abram Hillery. of Cisse No. 12° who
wae 2 falthiul member of the charch,
and died quite suddenly after an ill.

which he belonged and the Masonic ffe-

Since the announcement was made that Atlantic City was to have the disbandment of appointing the first colored officer woman, we find that Washington, A. C., has two appointees of this character. One served overseas as Y. M. C. A. worker during the World War and the other is a graduate of a Western University, Tololo, Ohio, also and a new colored policewoman named Barbara Furguson, who is making her arrest accidently gave the riot call when she wanted a patrol wagon to take her three male prisoners. New York City has had during the past three years two regularly appointed policemen, one of whom is still in active service. There are also some sixty colored women enrolled among the police surveys under Captain Mayfield, who have done efficient work since the war. There is a crying need for more regular appointments of this class of officers.
A LIBERAL POLICY.
In discussing "The Why of the 'Y.'" the New York Evening Mail recently expressed some pertinent editorial opinions as to the aims and the policies pursued by the Young Men's Christian Association. Among other things it said:
During the war the Y. M. C. A. was criticised. Much of the criticism was malicious, a little may have been justified. The "Y." was not made for war, it was made for peace; and as the annual dinner on Thursday showed, with peace the "Y." has returned to normalcy. In every direction its work and its influence are expanding. The aim is to save and develop men, not to slaughter them. And it is manhood that the world needs today.
The "Y" is now among the most important of foreign missions. It is establishing a new brotherhood in the East. Koreans, Chinese and Japanese meet in the "Y" who would not associate on another platform. It is the same in India. The "Y" suggests there a contact between East and West which is based wholly on service and thus wholly devoid of imperialism. In the "Y" and in similar enterprises, the West offers the East a real and constructive alternative to the difficult idealism of Gandhi. Non-cooperation is answered by cooperation, and with results of unmistakable importance. Not the least satisfactory of these is the liberal policy of the "Y" toward colored citizens of the United States.
Granting that the aim of the "I" is to save and develop men, it must be admitted that the responsible managers of this organization in New York have made rather a mess of the job, so far as the West 135th Street Branch is concerned. While a minority of the local board of management have complently acquiesced in the arbitrary rejection of an executive secretary whose proficiency was forfeited by his own interactions, the work of the Branch has become thoroughly demoralized. The followed community of Harlem has lost confidence in the institution, its membership has decreased and contributions to its support have fallen off. Efficient workers have been dismissed or forced by the present secretary and two young men who figured in unsavory criminal proceedings have been restored, service.
The liberal policy of the "Y" toward educated citizens of the United States found its strongest expression in the providing of funds to establish museums in separate institutions. This financial liberality may be justified on the ground of expedition, but it should be supplemented by a liberal spirit of information in the management of the sound branches. Manhood is not deceived by arbitrary methods of on-which deny the colored members exists in the management of their own institutions, which they have helped to teach and maintain.
general policy would at least accrue social group adequate representation on the central boards, that enable them to be heard on questions relating their interests. In this case, and by insisting on an equally number of workers for the colored can such a case of ruin and as now threaten the Herlem the avoided. The "Y" policy for liberal in sentiment as well applies.
THE HOPP THE PARKER

Parker's work.
the farmers of the race in various parts of the country. The purpose of this act is to lower the interest on first mortgage farm loans, to provide long term loans with the privilege of payments in installments and to make it easier for the purchase of land by those who wish to engage in farming.
At the present time the average Negro farmer is hampered in the effort to secrete a farm or to free his farm from the burden of existing mortgages by the high rate of interest he is forced to pay and his difficulty in obtaining loans except upon usurious terms. The Farm Loan act was intended to correct th sicnolidabt al's this condition by making it easier for the farmer, to borrow and to carry his mortgage at a reasonable rate of interest. Any ten or more farmers can organize a farm loan association, whose applications for loans reach a total of not less than $20,000.
The trouble has been that for some reason the farmers of the race have not been able to avail themselves of the benefits, to be derived from membership in an organization of fethis kind. In some cases it may have been due to the fact no local organization had been formed in the locality in which these farmers are located. In other cases local sentiment based on race or color may have operated to exclude the Negro farmer from membership. At any rate there is need to have the benefits of the Federal Farm Loan act made more accessible to this class of farmers. The Federal Farm Loan Board of the Treasury Department should have a competent representative of the race connected with its operation, who could be empowered to give proper attention to this phase of its development. Such a man as Mr. Hall, who is an expert statistician and an authority on financial questions affecting the race, would be thoroughly qualified to put the machinery of the Farm Loan system in practical operation among Negro farmers. The result would be the building-up of the farming industry to larger proportions among our farmers and the expansion of the benefits of the act in a legitimate way in a direction where they are greatly needed.
BUSINESS MEN AT NORFOLK.
The announcement that the National Negro Business League will hold its next annual convention at Norfolk calls attentions to the strides made in a commercial way by the race in this section of Virginia. An index to the growth of business among the Negroes of this progressive town is furnished in a statement made by the North Carolina Mutual Insurance Company of Durham, N. C., which maintains a district office in Norfolk. According to the figures furnished, the loans made by this company to Negro business in Norfolk County amounted to over $125,000.
Norfolk also makes the claim of possessing the largest Negro bank in the United States, with over a million dollars in resources. This institution is known as the Metropolitan Bank and Trust Co. Last February it took over the business of the Tidewater Bank and Trust Company, which was merged into the first named institution. The local race weekly of Norfolk, the Journal and Guide, a newsy and well edited publication, reveals other evidences of business progress in the real estate and other lines, while the Attucks Theatre caters to the amusement seekers.
The annual gathering of the business men of the race at Norfolk should be helpful and stimulating both to the visitors and to those who entertain them. Norfolk will provide sufficient in the form of concrete examples of business enterprises to illustrate the texts that will be expounded by the advocates of commercial initiative gathered from all parts of the country.
The choice of Norfolk for a meeting is one to be commended.
A case of white Republicans in Oklahoma adopting the methods of Southern Democrats, by the brutal beating and mutilation of a Negro deputy sheriff, was reported in the Oklahoma City Black Dispatch. In his comment the editor of the Dispatch said:
With President Harding inviting the Negro to get out of the Republican party and the allegation of a Negro deputy sheriff at Tulsa that Republicans in that county made him eat his own ear because he was carrying our President Hadding's instructions, the Black Dispatch again sees the rambling trail of prejudice to which we referred in an editorial last week. We cannot be brought to believe that the Republican organization at Tulsa is responsible for this latest outrage, for we believe that the men who guide the deities of the G. O. P. in Tulsa county would have more appeal than to believe that they could improve their political welfare through such obviously placed blame. Individuals. Republicans are no doubt responsible for the crime. Smitherman and his brother, who formerly edited a paper in Tulsa prior to the riot, have been affiliated with the Democratic party for years. Scouts of Negroes in the riot-seen city have openly stated that they were going to the polls in the meant election and vote the man out of power who permitted murder, loot and arson to run riot in the city of Tulsa on June for last year, when the homes of many Negroes were entirely destroyed and a Republican city administration attempted later to levy taxes on their right to reimbark on their land. Much methods will not make Negroes for Republican any more than they do for Democrat. It will only harm the relationship between the two parties so far that the Negro is consummated and so far that he impedes the sound of the negro's voice.
VEWS and REVEWS
By Sajya Widow Jalwan, Consulting Editor.
THE VENEER OF CIVILIZATION.
"And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considereth not the beam that is in thine own eye?"
But it is a lesson which very few individuals or peoples ever learn. In fact, the learning of this lesson is the height of wisdom. I was thrown into this vein of thought by picking up the daily newspapers and reading the murder record in New York for the month of March. During that month, according to police statistics, thirty-seven persons were murdered in New York City. These figures are staggering when we contemplate that New York considers it self the most highly civilized spot on the Western Hemisphere.
But this record of actual murders does not constitute the entire record of violence. There may have been many cases of violence in which luckily no one was killed. There was a scene of violence enacted in the very heart of New York, in front of the Grand Central Terminal, on the last day of March, the newspaper account of which sounded like pages taken from a story of the Wild West in border days. Four gunmen planned to rob one of the railroad paymasters. The plan leaked out and got to the police and a trap was laid to catch the bandits. The paymaster started out as usual with his satchel, but before he had gone many steps the bandits leaped from their car, drew their guns on him and demanded that he put his hands up. The detectives immediately pounced upon the bandits and there ensued a battle royal in which dozens of shots were fired, but no one killed. The four bandits were captured.
Similar acts of banditry are common in New York City but more often, instead of being a royal, fight between the bandits and the police it is the ruthless beating up of some poor victim by the bandits in an absolutely uneven contest.
New Yorkers read of those murders and acts of violence every day in their newspapers and yet it is unlikely that it ever occurs to them that they are a commentary on the vaunted civilization of this city and this country. In fact, the same New Yorkers can read with utmost complacency in the same newspapers, for example, of the "barbarism and handitry" which are said to exist in Haiti and to abolish which we keep an armed force in that country and have shot down thousands of Haitians. Indeed, New York can read these reports with a spirit of condescension for those poor Haitians who have only a "veneer of civilization." On this particular point the two following paragraphs are from an editorial in the Chicago "Tribune":
"Haiti is one of the countries which has been a moral reproach to the United States, as well as a physical danger. In our domestic affairs we assume that weakness in one citizen imposes custodial duties on others. We constantly must adjust our habits to the weakness of the unfit. We must infringe upon their rights as individuals for their own good, and it is a mooral reproach to us if we permit liberty in the United States to do damage to people who are not able to stand liberty.
"An easy going, amiable American nation has permitted the jungle to grow at one of its doors, with all the hideousness of the jungle. Haiti is two jumps ahead of cannibalism and two behind ordinary savagery. It has a superficially cultured margin and a mass of importance and brutality, superstition and cruelty which denounce the civilized margin."
The truth of the matter is that life and property are a hundred times safer anywhere in Haiti than they are in the city of New York, but you could never get that idea into the head of the average New Yorker in spite of the daily robberies and killings in his own city. Neither does it occur to the New Yorker what Haitians, for example, must think of American civilization when they read the daily reports of crime as given in our own newspapers. It would never occur to him that the Haitians would have a perfect right to look upon Americans as a more lawless and criminal people than his own.
The gauge of civilization in America has come to be skyscrapers and big businesses, hustle and endless amusement. May it not be true after all that these are the very things which constitute the vengeer of civilization?
SOME MORE SOUTHERN LOGIC.
Occasionally I take pleasure in exhibiting to our readers examples of popular Southern logic on the race question. I wish to take place in exhibit an editorial from the Spartanburg, S. C. "Journal." It is as follows:
WHITE MAN AND COLORED WOMAN.
A very aged and infirm Negro woman boarded the South Church Street car at Ligon's corner last evening and while she was fumbling in her well worn dress for the fare a great big honest-to-goodness white man came in, paid his fare and said to the old creature "Why, you haven't gone yet?" and she said with a smile. "You pay my way," and he said that he would and he did, and then she said: "Thank you; you are mighty good to me, and I'll pray for you." And the whole car full of people thought it was a fine incident of how the race question is settled in this part of the country.
The Society, for the Advancement of the Colored People would have passed resolutions of sympathy with the old woman, probably, and addressed a letter of protest to the President at Washington calling his attention to the fact that the white folks and the colored folks in this car sat with people of their own kind. The thing that none of the white negrophodists has ever been able to explain is why colored people should not prefer to sit with colored people.
The first paragraph of the "Journal's" editorial is so childish that it hardly deserves any attention. What has the fact that a kind-hearted, white man paid the street car fare of an aged colored woman got to do with settling the race question? We suppose that there are more acts of individual kindness and charity on the part of white people to colored people performed every year in the South every year than in any other part of the world. Nevertheless, that has nothing to do with the fact that the South is unfair, unjust and often inhuman toward the Negro race.
The second paragraph of the "Journal" editorial has something in it that resembles a thought, but it is merely a resemblance. Of course, it would be very difficult to make the editor of the "Journal" understand that when colored people object to being Jim-crowed it is not because they object to riding with members of their own race or that they prefer to ride with white people.
It is, first of all, because they must in their defense of their self-respect object to this prejudice, prejudice of discrimination, that they publicly confess of the contrary.
can import dollars and cents and perhaps any Southern white man ever understand it.
But more likely there are few Southern white people who can understand the other motive which impels colored people to object to being jim-crowed.
MESSAGES FROM THE OTHER WORLD.
Some weeks ago we spoke in these columns about Dr. James Martin, Peebles who died out in California when he was within a few days of reaching one hundred years of age, the limit which he had set for himself according to his method of living and his teachings regarding longevity.
According to a dispatch from Los Angeles, Dr. Peebles before his death, told friends that he intended to communicate with them, as he had been deeply interested in various forms of psychic research. So a week ago the Longer Life Lague, with which it appears Dr. Peebles was connected, gave a banquet in celebration of what would have been his one hundredth birthday. At the table an empty chair was placed for the late departed member.
At the proper psychological moment the president of the League stood up and announced, "Dr. Peebles is with us sitting in this chair." Evidently the doctor was not visible; otherwise the president of the League would not have had to announce that he was in the chair. Neither was the doctor audible, because the president of the League announced that he would read a message communicated by the doctor.
But what about the message? It was as follows:
"I knew in my innermost vision that I would celebrate my centennial beyond the gate—but that I would be with the Longer Life League in the spirit as well. It made little difference to me on which side of the gate I made the celebration. I was anxious to explore the moon and go journeying among the stars. Well, I am getting my wishes gratified. And the old rheumatism is a thing of the past.
"In the service of love you will find your excuse for living. It will make your life full and overflowing. Watch the physical side—the diet and exercises—to lengthen the years. It is a crime to die under a hundred years.
"This one word more: I am glad to add my testimony to the fact that there is no death."
The disappointing thing about all the messages that have been received from those who have departed this life is that they never contain anything important enough to warrant the trouble it must be to get the message back to this world. Dr. Peebles in life seems to have been a man of very great common sense and some degree of wisdom. Many of the things he said to his followers when he was alive were well worth saying and well worth heeding; but what is there in this message worth the effort it must have cost the doctor to come back and attend a dreary banquet. There is nothing transcendental in what he says: no flashing truth; not even any adequate details about his experiences after death.
What most people would like to hear in messages from those who have gone on is a definite account of what death means and what happens to man after death. The whole human race is anxious for some light on the great mystery of death. Those who have sent back messages have had a great opportunity but as yet not one of them has measured up to it. The only specific thing in Dr. Peeble's message is that he has no more rheumatism. This ought to be comforting to his relatives and friends, undoubtedly, but it has no great interest for the human race at large.
MILLIONS IN INSURANCE. ed groundrelism." In its issue of March The life insurance companies owned 30 it noted the reaction taking place in and controlled by Negroes are beginning Texas against the Klan and the count their insurance in force by the ter movements organized to meet it as millions of dollars. The reports for well as the expressed intention of the the year of 1921 show steady strides in Governor of Louisiana to suppress it. It then went on to say: ten, even with several new companies in the field.
But in Washington there appear to
The North Carolina Mutual Life still maintains its place as the largest Company of its class with insurance in force amounting to over $33,000,000, but the annual statement of the Standard Life of Atlanta also contained some surprising figures. When it is remembered that the Atlanta company has been in existence but a little over nine years against the Durham company's twenty-three years, its record of over twenty millions insurance in force shows rapid and substantial growth. Other figures from its statement showed admitted assets of $1,554,423.62 while the net reserve totaled $1,238,307.80. Death claims paid during 1921 amounted to $149,504.91, while the total income was $1,056,675.73. Since the organization of this company in 1915, policy holders have been paid $491,477.62 and the capital and unassigned funds are held to create a surplus as to policyholders of $168,757.27.
The fact that in two Negro companies alone over fifty-three million dollars insurance policies have been written and are now in force shows the great possibilities of life insurance among this group of Americans. With the experience gathered by the officers and promoters of these companies, covering in one case twenty-three years and in the other nine years, it is fair to presume that they have acquired a fair knowledge of the physical and moral hazards of the business. With such a substantial foundation already established and the steady improvement of the Negro as an insurance risk, as he progresses mentally and morally, the possibilities of this phase of insurance are stupendous.
Out side of the two companies mentioned above there must be at least an equal amount of outstanding insurance in force written by the remaining Negro insurance companies. It may be conservatively estimated that the Negroes of this country are carrying at least one hundred millions of insurance in their own companies, exclusive of such insurance on the assessment plan as is furnished through the immovable beneficial orders and societies. Not the least valuable effect of this insurance movement is its tendency to raise the standard of health conditions and condone better living. To be a good risk a man must live safely.
A GOVERNMENTAL MYSTERY
The New York Colle, the early daily
investment by the city which by open
account in individual and association
with the government has been
But in Washington there appear to be some mysterious influences at work permitting the hooded packs to continue their brutal work. The investigation of last year was not carried beyond the congressional hearing. The evidence of the doings of this organized terrorism was sufficient to prove that the Klan substitutes its will for the public powers of cities, counties and states. Not so many months before the investigation, agents of the Department of Justice were employed in hunting out "crink" on the score that they intended to substitute their will for such public powers. Men were clubbed in raids and some were deported to other countries for their beliefs, not for any actions in conflict with the laws.
The Kit Klux-Klan, however, has scores of crimes and uprisings to its credit, and an investigation of its activities resulted in the dropping of the whole matter. There must be some explanation of this tenderness toward the Klanites. Is it possible that the Klan has its agents in bureaus and departments at Washington? Is it possible that this organization, with its notorious past, has acquired sufficient influence to checkmate any effort to investigate it, or to prosecute its prominent members for their crimes or to prevent enactment of legislation that will destroy this dirty thing?
This view of the mysterious manner in which the investigation of the Klan was called off is worth consideration. It is a notorious fact that most of the government departments and bureaus at Washington are still honeycombed and virtually controlled by Southern Democrats, who maintain and enforce all the prescriptive policies of the Wilson regime, so far as possible. That many of these held-overs are members or instruments of the Klan is easy of belief. They should be unmasked and removed from positions where they exert a harmful influence.
"The dirty thing" of Ku Kluxians as the Call rightly terms it, should be rooted out of existence. No good reason can be assigned for tenderness in dealing with the Klan. The mystery of the failure of government action against the Klan should be revealed.
The Nashville Clarion recently took issue with the mistaken notion that the Negro has no mental initiative and that he is a helpless initiator of the white man. It added:
The conception of the Negro is an unjustifiable as it is erroneous. Our intensive genius has been applied unequivocally and ground up from making computers to flying machines; from export operation photograph to accumulating high pleasures; and some of its higher functions in the economy are largely unexplained and Negroism has
been founded upon Jan E. Metzelinger's invention for lasting shoes. Another potent illustration is furnished by an ordinary common labororing colored nail in this city, who has invented and put on the market a rat trap, which, when thrown in competition with the hundreds of mouse traps invented by white men, works overtime in such success to measure that the Negro's trap catches more mice in one night than sixteen different kinds of traps furnished by white men. The genius of the Negro only needs an outlet. He must make that outlet himself by combination of the business resources of the race.
The Clarion has hit the nail on the head in defining combination of business resources as the needed element to further racial progress. The conservative spirit so strongly demonstrated in religious and fraternal organizations has yet to be developed to a greater degree in commercial undertakings.
Announcement was made by the Florida Sentinel that the Afro-American insurance Company, with its office at Jacksonville had enlarged the scope of its business by writing straight life insurance policies. It said:
This addition to their business necessitated an enlargement of their building and an amendment to their charter, all of which has been done in strict compliance with the laws of the State of Florida, and the company has put in the field a force of special agents who are vigorously canvassing.
Group insurance of ministers and teachers is one of the special features of the company, and policies are issued in sums of $500 to $5,000.
This adds one more to the number of insurance companies controlled by Negroes now writing straight insurance. This is in line with the recommendation made by Till. Age over a year ago, that the race provide the capital and the agencies to sell the insurance demanded by its members. Only time and experience can work out a fair and reasonable solution of the question of propre- premium rates and reserve funds. But the extension of facilities for insurance is in the interest of health and morality.
Commenting on the defeat of Dr. W. Lowy for a place on the city tax as commissioner, the Des. Min. has stated that the finished tax in a field of twenty applicants, add-
Lowry won place over eight men who had the support of the leading daily papers, while said papers instituted a deathly silence on any of the utterances of Lowry. Lowry won the respect of thousands of whites who heard his speeches, but lost their votes because of the color of his skin. Men praised him, but they could not vote for him because he was a Negro. THE RACE LOST—an opportunity to inspire its children with the hope of being recognized for worth and efficiency and with the fact that they are members of a race that will stand solidly behind them in the face of any and all things which may oppose their handable enterprises. THE FACT that we polled less than 25 per cent. of the estimated Negro vote should teach us to PLAN WELL, ORGANIZE THOROUGHLY, and LENE EXPERT ENTERPRISE.
It is only by taking heed of the lessons of defeat that the race will learn how to win eventually in the streets for equal opportunity and adequate recognition in all walks of life.
A Word and a Deed.
SPEECH. A white bishop delivering friendly advice to an audience of "you colored people" says, "What the people need is a higher record of morality and love. You must have a higher concept of the laws of the state and the laws of God. There is too much exposure of crime and immorality. Money will not last your etc. etc."
FACT: A news item from New York City tells that four little girls, ranging in ages from 11 to 15, had accused "Tox" Rickard, a rich and industrial sportsman, of raping them. (The newspapers softened the charge to "technical assault" or impiring the morals of "etc."). The same news tells that Rickard is "acquitted" by the jury, and that the prosecuting attorney's office was so kind as to promise beforehand that if Rickard should win against the first little girl whose case as brought into court, the other three little ones should not be allowed to attack him at all.
We do not need to say any more SPHECH and FACT tell their own story. But we might add by way of emphises for the bishop's information that ALL of these parties are WHITE, the accused, the accusers, the judge, the jury, and the lawyers on both sides. WILLIAM PICKENS. New York City.
Within a few days there will be dedicated, at Arlington Cemetery, to the memory of Admiral Peary, who accompanied by Matthew Henson, discovered the North Pole. This is a well deserved honor, more so soon given. But the question which comes to some of us is, What has ever been done for Matthew Henson, the associate of Admiral Peary in this memorial venture.
Henon did not accompany the Admiral as a mere servant or valet. He is a man of pleasing address, well educated, understands navigation and was known as one of the best dog drivers in the whole North. If the story told of the las lapa of the venure is true, Herr himself would not have reached the Pole had it not been for the superior work of this man. The Admiral was carried there on a sled by Henon. Today Henon is the only living man known to have been to the Pole. Not having had ever done by the nation, for this man is reward for his intelligence and industriousness. "It is not to have for the government to remedy the misfortunes of the nation." Lord Congrets

It generally seems to us rather unfortunate for white and Negro players to appear on the stage together because invariably the Negroes act so much better. The colored premier of the cast were responsible for every thing vivid in "Taboo," the new play by Mary Hoyt Widorg, which was produced yesterday at a special matinee at the Sain H. Harris Theatre.
Miss Wilkinson perhaps should receive the credit of having realized the dramatic possibilities of a presentation of Voodoo rites, but she has surrounded this extraordinary divertissement with a story which is muddled, and slow moving. With the exception of one scene in the first act, the play commands attention only when the Negro actors in it begin to dance and sing. The only important white role in the play falls to Miss Margaret Wheels, who made a beautiful picture, but who was entirely inadequate socially for the heavy demands which the part made upon her. A scene in which a company of colorful players are assembled to present a conjuring ceremony in a Louisiana swamper is enormously interesting. Augusta Duncan has gestured it well, and the playing of Paul L. Roberson, Fannie Belle De Knight and Alex Rogers was unusual and exciting.
It may be that the tradition of the so-called "golden days" of the American theatre is best preserved today by Negro actors. In most scenes of violent emotion and floral expression it serves to us that they are incomparably better than all but a handful of their white competitors. They have adoration. They can actually give the illusion of ecstasy. There are so many excellent actors even in the most casually assembled company of Negroes that it seems possible that there must be some great ones some where or other among this race for which dramatic opportunities are still to rare.
Material of the highest sort wants for the artistic enterprise of any one who can write serious plays for Negro actors. Men and women in burnt corn have always been treble substitutes. Sugi Negro stock companies as exist devote their attention to producing the popular plays of Broadway. We understand that "Pozzah and Permittuiter" has been done in Harlem, and we noticed on an anouncement of an all-Negro vaudeville entertainment the other day the promise of a player who would give Jewish interpolations.
Miss Wibere's "Taboo" in our opinion does not cap the potentialities of a people with an assured facility for the theatre, but it gives a hint of what might be done.
It is impossible for us to even even scanty outline of the plot, because we did not understand the story. As matter of fact, it seemed of little consequence as long as Paul L. Robe-

AT LAFAYETTE THEATRE
Patrons of the Lafayette Theatre have been thrilled this week with an old tashoned microlabra, "The Storm" which has been playing to the large audiences of each performance. The story for this play is laid in the Canadian works and the play receives around the truncate of two partners over the love of a young girl who is left in love with phibia by her dying father, H.L. Poyer and Andrew Bishop do some nice acting as the partners, while Cleo Demond is charming as the girl. Others in the cast are Harrison Jackson, Walter Robinson and Tiahella Jackson. For the week of April 10th, these same actors will be presented by the Dumbar Players in "Over the Hill" Andrew Bishop and Cleo Demond will again head the all-star cast, and it is expected that this play will give these stars an even better opportunity for dramatic acting than "The Storm" is affording them the week.

BLAME FOR ROUGH PLAY
PUT ON BLUE BELT "S."
New Rochelle, N.Y. The Oriental Girls A, C of New Rochelle played the Blue Belt Girls of New York on Saturday, March 21th, and the girls report that fairs were subjected to very rough treatment by the New York girls, Miss Beatrice Goode is still carrying a black eye as a result of rough treatment on part of the Blue Belt, although The Age's sports writer, in last week's issue, charged the New Rochelle girls with roughness. The referee, Mr. Gant, is of New York, not New Rochelle, as was stated, and seems to be fair and impartial in his dealings with both teams.
In speaking of the matter, a prominent citizen of New Rochelle expressed the opinion that The Age writer was misinformed, judging from his personal experience gained by weekly attendance on the games played by the girls. He declared that proof of this is to be found in the bruises and black eyes sustained by the New Rochelle girls.
The 1922 Basketball Season
(By WILLIAM E. CLARK).
Basketball in New York has been getting back to normal this season, and in doing so it has wrought hardship to a number of local clubs. From 1917 to 1921 almost any kind of basketball game was an attraction, and with the war prosperity these games invariably draw a big house and make money for the promoters.
Largely because of the commercial value of the game during these years, many of the games were promoted to make money for the clubs or promoters, and in this way the amateur status of the game was to some extent sacrificed.
of the teams began to fight among themselves so that by the end of the 1921 season, basketball in this city was an unhealthy condition, although from outward appearance the game was never popular or the clubs more pro-
Soon, however, those who were making money out of the game began to met some of the disadvantages of professionalism. The management of one of the principal halls in Harlem, seeing the clubs making large sums of money on each game, increased the rental of this hall from $50 to $200, and from $200 to $500, within a period of less than two years. Star players began jumping from one team to another for money, and betting began to sip public interest in the game. Then, too, some
Oriental's Win Four Games.
(Special to The New York Age)
New Rochelle, N. Y. - The chief event for the week in New Rochelle was that four Oriental teams, ingame, many games came in victorious. The Midgets defeated the Triangle at New Rochelle 50-35. The chief feature of this game was the shooting. Which ever team got the tap at center usually scored. The Oriental girls took the Deers and Victim Harris into camp by the Score of 10-0. For the home team the work of L. Thompson and Vivienne Shea land was particularly good with N. Harris started for the Deers. The flag 5-2 defeated the Neptunes, a tightly fought team somewhere in Harlem, 50-20, in a 3-2 uninteresting game. The most the game however, was that between the lightweights and the Monarchs. The Monarchs started off like whitbirds the score being 10-1 in their favor at the end of the first ten minute. Here the Oriental apparently came to life for at the end of the first half the score was 14-13 in favor of the Monarchs. In the second half the score are signed back and forth until the final five minutes, in which basket, I have Jones and Loomis in another in the final score 27-25 favor Oriental. Jones was star for colored law with 7-2 games while Billing with 5-2 games was here on the Monarchs.

of the teams began to light among themselves so that by the end of the 1921 season, basketball in this city was in an unhealthy condition, although from outward appearance the game was never more popular or the clubs more prosperous.
But with the increase of these evils and the business depression of 1921, some clubs and individuals who had the interest of the game at heart, saw the need of some organization to correct these evils. Accordingly the Metropolitan Basketball Association was formed early in 1921 for the purpose of uniting the privately amateur clubs, and putting an end to the destructive competition that had begun among some of the larger clubs. In the beginning few of the older were in sympathy with the ideals of this association and only joined with the idea that they taught control it. Largely for this reason, there was little accomplished by this organization until the present season, when several clubs were asked not to use certain players because of their alleged professionalism, and an effort was made to arrange attractions so that two big games would not be played on the same date. Efforts were also made to stimulate the development of younger players, and a law was passed preventing any player from representing two clubs during the same season.
The effects of this program worked hardship to several member clubs, and carried with internal trouble in the Sporran Field Club that it is generally therein to have been an important factor in the club's relentless the Eastern championing, which they held for the past two years. Nevertheless, this organization has been so much to restore the game to former standing as an amateur team, and with the formation of a larger team, this organization for most noon new interest is sure to be accepted at the game.
The Alpha Club has been more successful than any of the larger clubs in Hibernation and derays the heavyweight championship of the East. Outside Hibernation, the Oriental Big Ten of New York and the borough Athletic Club of Brooklyn were the most successful and had won two to three times in the Harton clubs in popularity. The teams in Northern New Jersey are an example for the New York clubs in the manner in which they cooperated with each other, and had one on their most successful seasons. Among the eight eight clubs, the St. Mark's Flashes, the Alpha Moggie, the Spartan Hornets, and the Columbia Club综合征 are the leading teams, and were more successful than the bigger clubs.
Girls in ballclub teams are growing more popular and played more of the season. With the addition of the Cubs, the league has grown to a much

Bernard Saunders, recently known in the ring as Young Kid Norfolk, vain proved his superiority over kie Moore, the former junior light right champion of the National Guard, when her was awarded the referee's decision in their two round bout at he 369 in Regiment Armory on Friday night, March 31st.
In their previous encounter, Moore felt that the decision against him was an unfair one, but on last Friday night, Young Saunders so far outclassed him that there was no doubt as to the winter. Moore led the fighting, but was able to land only a few clean blows, while Saunders on the other hand, not only bit clean but was also faster and possessed a healthier punch. Before the fight started, the sentiment of the crowd which packed the armory seemed to have been with Moore, but when hottilities began, the sentiment soon turned to Saunders, and the referee's decision in his foul spot with general approval. Moore's weight was announced at 128 pounds, and Saunders as 134.
In the seminal bout of ten pounds, Johnnie Clark of the 300th and Monty Silver of the 47th fought a draw. This bout was something of a David and Goliath affair, for Silver was fifteen pounds heavier than Clark and larger in every way. For this reason the sentiment of the public was with Clark from the start, and with the encouragement of almost everyone in the house, this plucky little fighter fought as he never fought before. He was beaten, however, and only his ability to take a lot of punishment kept him from being knocked out. But the good showing made by Clark caused the bout to be declared a draw by the judges.
Danny Coles and Battleh Stevenson, two of the youngest members of the 20th, made their debut as price fighters in one of the most amazing bouts

Howard Baseball Teams. Washington, D. C.—For some time candidates for the varsity and freshman baseball teams have been at work and from all appearances. Howard will be able to put forth a representative baseball team this year. From the battery candidates the Varsity team is a sure of five good pitchers, three left-handers and two right handers. For catchers, the Varsity will have two men from last year and a number of promising recruits. The infield has a fair nucleus from last year to work around and with the acquisition of the new men who are showing promise will round out strongly. The outfield is causing considerable worry.

Vandalis Destroyed in Close Game. (Special to The New York Age). Atlantic City, N. J.—The Wissahickon Speed Marvels of Germantown. Played Vandal of Atlantic City off their feet on, Saturday, April 1st. In the first half the speed of the visiting team was too much for the Seaside. In fact, Vandal's roosters were spell, bound when the first half ended 14, to 6 in Wissahickon's favor. Holding Vandal to one field in the first half, made the spectators leave their seats and press closer to the cage to see the team that so bewildered "the old unbentable Vandal" on their home floor. The crowd pleaded with Bill, Howard, Hilton and "Babe" Brown to save the day, but Wissahickon's scoring three field goals in succession spurred Vandal to superplaying. So superb was Wissy's playing that it was impossible to catch up before the whistle ended the game. The score was 25-23 in favor of the Pennsylvania team. The whole Wissahickon team shares in the great victory over Vandal on the home floor.

Columbus MIL Exhibit' and Festival.
March 23rd to 28th the Lincoln
House Settlement, 202 West 63rd street,
held its annual industrial exhibition.
The gymnasium on the first floor was
decorated with bunting, forming booths
in which ample space was allowed for
the magnificent display of embroideries,
hardwork, millinery, etc. that was put
on exhibition. Special attention must
be made of the splendid effort, initiative
and genius shown in some of the
exhibits by the girls and women of
the various clubs of the Lincoln House, and
some of the younger and older set
from the neighborhood.
The little lots showed wonderful adaptability in some of the little dresses and doll clothes they displayed. The judges, composed of directors and friends of the House, praised the excellence of the exhibition.
Taken as a whole, the exhibition was a greater success this year than any previous year. The net proceeds amounted to more than $50. Credit must be given to the courage and resourcefulness of Miss Birdye Haynes, headworker and her faithful committee, Miss H. C. Lewis, Mrs. Peterson, Mrs. Doctor, Mrs. Hebson, Mrs. Mills, Mrs. Butler, Mrs. Hammond, Mrs. Natta, Mrs. Thomas, Mrs. Dumlap, Miss Latimer, Mr. Stokes, Mrs. Hebson and R. C. DeKnight.
The attendance throughout was splendid and all indulged in the pastimes and enjoyments provided.

of separation, resignation and co-
operation with God in the carrying out of
his will. Next Sunday he will give
the six word from the cross, "Finished"

a special sermon to the circles of the
church on the place of the church

istered at both services Sunday. The
