PRICE, FIVE CENTS Colored Business Men Charge the Ministry and Other Professions with Failure to Support Race Enterprises Is Support Lacking For Negro Business? Do Professional Men of Race Fail In Loyalty to Race Enterprises? Leading Merchants of Harlem Declare That They Are Not Receiving Such Support From Ministers and Others As They Should The support Negro business is receiving, or rather the lack of it, has been causing grave concern among those who are interested in the growth of such business here THE AGE, in an effort to find out just how much these businesses are being supported by members of the race, had a representative interview the proprietors of a number of these businesses dealing in basic commodities. Among the men he talked to on this subject were J. C. Miller of the Harlem Shoe Company; A. T. Anderson of the Anderson Furniture Company; R. N. Heron of the R. G. Heron Tailoring Company; C. W. Anderson, who operates a butcher shop and market at 138th street and Lenox avenue; A. I. start of the Hart Five and Ten Cent Stores; and the proprietor of the Pomona Bakery and Enterprise Company. Pace Buys Plant Which Made First Black Swan Records Acquires Property of Phonograph Record Pressing Company at Long Island City After Hostile White Competitors Go Into Bankruptcy It is the personal manner in which men talk, but not how much support as they should, especially among the so called professional class. When asked how many of te socalled leading men of the community patronized these businesses, every one of the men interviewed declared that they were so few that they were so few that they could be counted on the fingers of his hands, and some said they could count them on the fingers of one hand. Professional Men Fail. Yet there are in Harlem more than a hundred colored ministers and several hundred members of other professions, who make their money from other members of the race in the community; and who could, by purchasing their food, clothes and furniture from racial enterprises make these businesses so prosperous that other such businesses would be opened by members of the race. These people, above all others, would support the local businesses, for so they would not only set an example but would also help to make their own affairs more prosperous by saving their money in the community. The real support the colored business in the community is receiving comes mostly from the everyday work of colored people, as may be the fact that the most proper businesses are in the poorer neighborhoods. Recently, the building the corner of 138th street and Seventh avenue was remodelled and fitted as one of the best butcher shops and markets in Harlem, and the proprietor was sure that a paying business would be conducted here, but so far business in this store, in one of the residential sections of Harlem, is not nearly as good as that of a similar business at 138th street and Lenox Avenue, and the only reason for this is that different classes of people live, the vicinity of these two stores. A few of the tailors number among their patrons, members of the professional classes of the race, and it is known that many of the organizers and individuals of the race who work about the support of race Pace Buys Plant First Black Acquires Property of Phon Company at Long Island White Competitors A real estate transaction of unusual interest occurred last week when a representative of the Pace Phonograph Corporation purchased at public auction the phonograph record pressing plant of the Remington Phonograph Corporation, located at the corner of Wetland and Creek streets, Long Island City, L. 1. The plant is a two-story concrete structure for which $12,000 was paid by the Pace Corporation. An interesting feature of the city is that it was in this plant that the Pace Phonograph Corporation began manufacturing Black Swan records, a product worthy of admiration. and companies give their priority to white shops in preference to those of the race. This is true of most of the colored publications of the city and several of the social agencies. It should be borne in mind by those who want to see Negro business grow in Harlem, that all new businesses must start small, and that the best service you can render these businesses is by first showing interest by patronizing them and then offering friendly suggestions to the proprietor as to how his business may best be improved. Many of these businesses may not have just what you want, but in most cases their proprietors will be glad to get the new commodity you want if you will ask him to. Recently several of the colored businesses of the community have gotten together and formed what they call The Harlem Economic Association, with A. I. Hart as the director. Some of the aims of the association as expressed in their bulletin are to form cooperative buying organizations of businesses in the same line; to make their business places as attractive as those of their competitors; guaranteeing the customers absolute satisfaction as to price, quality and service, or the prompt refund of their money; and to install modern accounting systems so that the investors in their business might be fully protected, as well as to enable the business itself to obtain the necessary credit for its successful operation. If such a program is put into action by the colored business houses in Harlem, it should be the duty of every member of the race to purchase the necessary commodities of life from Negro concerns in preference to the establishments conducted by them of other races. WORK STARTED ON Work on the new armory for the 369th Regiment, the Old 15th, was begun last week, and it is expected that the armory will be completed by Fall. The building will be located at 142-143rd streets East of Lémox avenue and covers a space about 200 feet square.

But with financial difficulties coming with several of the controlling companies, the Remington people were forced into bankruptcy, and the property finally sold at public auction. Harry H. Price, president of the Pace Photographic Corporation, states that arrangements are being made to jointly the accounting department and phI manufacturing branch of the organization of their new plants. The management of this plant will contribute in the benefit of the company by helping to maintain its quality. N. Y. Postmaster Promotes Colored Marr and Assigns Him to College Station in Harlem-Held Similar Place 10 Years in Wall Street Station Making of Liberian Loan Is "Point of Honor" Says Hughes Alexander King of 235, West-133rd street, for thirty years an employee of Uncle Sam, attached to the New York City postoffice, has been promoted to assistant superintendent and assigned to the College station at 140th street and Edgecombe avenue, the branch postoffice which serves practically all of colored Harlem. This is not the first time Mr. King has served as assistant superintendent. For ten years he held a similar position in the busy Wall Street station, the branch which is located in the midst of the city's great financial stronghold, in which position he achieved an honorable and commendable record. He was demoted by a Democratic postmaster in 1917, purely for political and racial reasons, being given the rating of clerk with designation as bookkeeper, and having full charge of the finances of the Wall Street station. The demotion was only in rank, Mr. King receiving the same salary as when he was assistant superintendent. In coming to the Harlem station, Mr. King's brings an ample and varied experience, and it is no reflection on this predecessors to say: that under him the service will be carried to a high level. He was born at Petersburg, Va. on January 24th, 1875, and was brought to New York City when only five years BEAUMONT DETECTIVE ORDERED TO GET KLAN (Septia Ito The New York Age). Bemount, Town After Junction and feathered, and after Dick Richards, a Negro hotel porter, was beaten and run out of town, Mayor Steinhagen and the City Commissioners offered $1,000 reward for the arrest and conviction of any members of the bands who had committed the outrages. The Mayor called in Read Tevis, chief of detectives, and said: "I want you to get these cowards who hide behind masks, whether or not they belong to the Klu Klu Klan." "Do you mean it?" asked Tevis, who had "lain low" only because the city officials had not been active against the Klan. "Get them," repeated the Mayor. Reid Tevis got busy. An old-timer, he is known in most of the cities of the South for his courage and efficiency. He has the reputation of never failing to bring in his man, even if it is in an ambulance. His judgment is as quick as his trigger finger and as accurate as his aim. He went to work on the Pelt and Richards cases. The Klu Klu Klans in these parts all know Reid Tevis. He has been warned and threatened—but not openly. The result of this work is that the Grand Jury, now in session, has before it, it is creditably reported, their name of every man who raised his hand against Judge Pelt or the colored porter.

C.—Urgent extension of a $5,000,000 loan to Liberia, promised in 1918, as a "point of honor," Secretary Hughes told the House Ways and Means Committee on Wednesday, April 19th, there was no foundation for reports, that American banking interests would benefit most from the transaction. Such reports had arisen at previous hearings of the committee on the legislation. "I never heard that any one interested in payment of bonds was behind this proposal," Secfetary Hughes said. "The truth is that bonds amounting to $1,500,000 will be retired under this loan plan. I understand that $88,000 is the amount out of the $1,500,000 total held in the United States. My personal information is that the figure is newer $10,000." A considerable amount of the Liberian bonds to be retired in event the firm is made by the United States, Secfetary asked, one held in Germany, Holland and Great Britain, and are widely distributed among private investors.

When only 17 years of age, he entered the postoffice as a junior clerk at $30 per year, and was assigned to Station E at 28th street and Seventh avenue. This was in June, 1992, and Mr. King arrived at this station and as clerk in George at Station W, 80th street and Columbus avenue, to which he was transferred, until February 19th, 1907, when he was promoted to be assistant superintendent and transferred to the Wall Street branch postoffice, one of the largest and most important stations in the city. Since his reduction in rank under the Wilson administration, he continued at the same station until promoted and transferred to the Harlem branch, taking up these new offices on Monday, April 14th, 1922. Mr. King is an active and influential member of St.-Mark's M. E. Church West 53rd street, the Rev. William H. Brooks, pastor. Credit for this promotion and recognition of a competent colored postoffice employee is largely due to Samuel Kuewig, chairman Republican County Committee, Congressman Martin B. Ansorge, David B.

Tuskegee Institute, Ala. — "A few Negroes in real life have blundered as Peter Siner did," said William G. Willcox, chairman of the board of trustees of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute, in a recent letter to T. S. Stribbling, the author of the novel "Birdright," which ran serially in the Century magazine and now appears in book form. Mr. Willcox's letter to Mr. Stribbling is as follows: "I have just read the "Birthright" with much interest and I am tempted to ask if you had any definite object in writing it. "The descriptions of conditions at Niggetown" is a vivid picture of the aftermath of slavery. It is, as I suppose you intended, a description of conditions which existed in the worst sections of the South and which confronted one who sought to educate or improve the Negro people. Unfortunately such conditions are not confined to any race or section and it would not be difficult to find similar pictures among the white immigrants and factory operators in the North. Such pictures do not indicate the character of capacity of the race as a whole, but rather the morbid conditions resulting from the environment of a particular group. "Peter Siner represents a weak man who has been given a college course without any solid foundation either in education or in moral character. His dismal failure furnishes a strong endorsement of Booker Washington's theory that Negro education must begin with fundamental training of the Brian Loan Is "for" Says Hughes in Would be Lamentable" Liberia—Roosevelt, Taft, Agreed on Loan tection unless the others holding brande were paid." Failure to make the loan, Mr. Hughes declared, "would be lamentable with re- spect to the position of the United States before the world, and most lamentable for Liberia," which entered the war in 1917 on the side of the Allies. Mr. Hughes said the question of beli- ing Liberia was the only point on which President Roosevelt, Taft, Wilson and Harding were in agreement, and added: "There must have been some basis for the credit when it was useful to such extraordinary concurrence." Explaining that the loan was authorized in 1958 and not put through Mr. Hughes, said an moral obligation the good faith of the American government was pledged to aid the republic of Liberia, which had entered the 'war' at the insistence of the United States, Palm oil, a product needed in the manufacture of munitions, found its greatest source in Liberia and President Wilson sought that republic as the place to go to get the oil needed by the war.

Few Negroes in real life have blundered as Peter did while thousands trained at Tuskegee and other schools are today making good in all sections of the country. "The general effect of the book seems to me to discourage the effort to educate and elevate the Negro race. I cannot believe this to be your intention and I am sure that the facts do not at all warrant any such disheartening picture." GEORGIA LYNCHERS CONVSTED BY JURY Will Jones, were convicted by a Superior Court jury and sentenced by Judge Z. A. Littlejohn to serve sentences of not less than one or more than four years, sach. In its findings, the jury recommended that the cases be treated as misdemonians, but this the judge declined to do. Eight men were accused after an investigation of the lynching of Jones, but five of the men disappeared from the neighborhood, leaving their families and farms, and not one of these five have been apprehended. SOCIETY SONS N. C.

Y. Promptly at 8:30 the exercises were opened with prayer and a hymn. Thomas Knight, of Wilmington, N.

He declared further that the wisdom of the doctrine of friendliness and good-will between the faces as preached and practiced by Dr. Washington was being seen in Southern communities each day. Prof. Fisher told how Dr. Washington took him from the streets of Vicksburg, Miss., to Tuskegee, and, there made him ambitious to serve and hopeful about the future of his race. By contact with the better element of Northern and Southern whites at Tuskegee, the bitterness he felt against the white race was gradually replaced by a more tolerant feeling, assured Prof. Fisher, who said further that in many ways Dr. Washington had been a father to him, and that he felt that Dr. Washington was one of the greatest men in the world.

Foster, church Text of Statement The conference expressed its view on the race question as follows: "The Constitution of the United States was born in a life and a struggle for life, liberty and the promise of happiness. Gladstone produced this constitution to be the greatest production of the mind of men. The protections guaranteed in this constitution were won by our forefathers after thousands of years of warfare and assassination. Unless the constitution be sacredly upheld by the duly constituted authorities, the personal and collective security of America will be swept away and she will live in terror and dread of violence at the hands of unknown unauthorized forces. Thomas Jefferson glorified that he had a part in giving the citizens of this country laws that protect every citizen and secure them fair trial before a jury, if accused of crime. "We therefore declare our fidelity to the basic principles of American government, and to the flag which protects our lives, our homes and the sacredness of our persons and in all fairness, we demand at the hands of public officials the same protection for the lowest and most helpless, not only of our own race, but of this other race to which we are bound by cords which cannot be broken. "We view with alarm the cheapness of huma nife and call for a re-establishment of faith in human rights and justice, in the handling of the vileest criminal of all races and colors." Racial Supremacy. "As members of a race which members but one-fourth of the world's population, we recognize that it is the race with the greatest eathly powers. Since the test of character in an individual or race is not to be found in the attitude or treatment of those on equal battle ground, but those who are helpless and whose term of opportunity has been shorter than one's own, we appeal to our race to demonstrate its claim of superior qualities in a bighness and breadth of soul which will reach out and give a man's chance and a squeeze deal to those races who are our peculiar responsibility. "Such a course will enable each race to reach its best achievement and will aid the fourth and the nation in bringing these two races to more confidence. "We recognize that the prejudice of woman is the doom of any race and that among the numbers of underly-crauses of the present racial situation in America is the lack of respect and protection for Negro womanhood. Being gifted with sympathetic appreciation the high standards of women act by the best element of Negro women, we place ourselves to an effort to emphasize the single standards of morals for both men and women to the end that rightness may prevail and unity so necessary not to one race but to both. "Believing that silence and tranquility in the face of unanticipated evil pervades the soul, we the women of this society must pledge our attention to a cause and an approved study of this single question and to active participation in all women to suffer our country."

The area was too large for ‘tandimg. so ali but 5.000 acres were turned back to the government in exchange for farms of equal size at Weya, Mutambara and elsewhere, laying the foundation for a system of agricultural schools and de- monstration farms for teaching of the natives, Young men and women who: attended these schools learned fast and every one wanted to go back and teach his people. | They built houses of sun-dried rick | with windows and doors, with chimneys. and fireplaces, and stocked these homes wits conveniences and comforts.

But there are certain occasions in many of the larger cities of the South when the Negroes are concerned to vote. This is when the question of a legal improvement at the county level becomes an important issue for addressing the economic and increasing the public health and consequently the welfare of the county. In this case, the county attorney is appointed to preside over the legal improvement. A county attorney can be appointed to this issue by the county commission in the county where the county attorney is appointed to preside over the legal improvement.

We are committed to the purpose of providing new schools and in fiveteen other and warlike countries, and to improve the city's infrastructure. We are committed to the purpose of providing new schools and in fiveteen other and warlike countries, and to improve the city's infrastructure. When it comes to nominating the officials who shall carry out these improvements, or who shall administer the state or national government, the whites seek to debark the black voters from participation. If the black voters can be depended upon and in some the problems of the physical and financial well-being of the community, they are equally capable of voting for competent officials in the city, the state and the nation. This practice of counting black voters when they are needed to help the good of the community and barring them from the ballot box on thinly pretices when it comes to the choice of proper representatives in office is another example of Southern inconsistency. The black voters that are good enough to incur a public debt for a useful purpose are good enough to vote for any office from constable to President. WHITE WOMEN OOPOSE LYNCHING. It is a significant sign of the growing sentiment against moth violence and branch law when any considerable number of white women in the fourth open by commence leading as the black spot on American soil and further declare that "we have no security unless the law protests us." These frank and courageous declarations were, included in the address adopted by the women's section of the Texas state committee on later Racial Cooperation, which met at a few weeks ago. These women went further in exposing the evils that engender and foster education and bad relations between the two races. They appealed for "protection of the charity of the Negro woman" and declared themselves "for the standard of morality among this race as well as among our own." They put themselves on record as defiant for the Negro child better homes, for schools and better Christian homes. was couched in the strongest terms. These women said: So long as America holds the record for its illegal taking of life, so long as the headlines of foreign papers carry in large letters "America burns another Negro," just so long will her shame be world-wide. We have no security unless the law protects us. Nob violence knows no law. As women, as mothers of men, we protest. We condemn every violation of law in the taking of life, no matter what the crime. These utterances should constitute an overwhelming rebuke to those apologists for Kitching, both inside and outside of Congress, who seek to justify it as necessary for the protection of the white women of the South. The baselessness of this text has been shown repeatedly by the statistics relating to lynching, which give assaults or even attempted assaults on women as the charge alleged in a minor percentage of lynching cases. When the white women of the South, as a whole, take the high ground of justice and morality, attained by these women of Texas, the baseless pretext of the lyncher will be futile. He will stand expelled to public gaze as a cowardly murderer inspired by blood lust and mob ferocity, without extuse or instigation. The appeal of four women of Texas should have special interest for every member of the United States Senate, as hearing upon the subject of antiblaching legislation. ```markdown ``` PRICE OF PREJUDICE. A well-known physician who was born in the South, but for many years has lived and practiced in the North, had occasion a few works ago to visit the section where he spent his early year. One of the questions asked him was what impressed him most in the way of changes that had taken place during the years of his absence. His reply was that the greatest change to his mind was the fact that he found the white man of the South working and the colored man riding in auto cars. One of the noticeable features at the unveiling of the statue created to Barker T. Washington at Tuskegee Institute was the handmade motor cars parked all about the grounds. Many of these cars were of the more expensive makes and their corners were New. The license tags showed that while many came from points in Alabama, others were from more distant states. From the North were seen cars from Virginia, North and South Carolina, West Virginia, Maryland, Tennessee and Georgia, while from the regions further South Florida, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas were among the states represented. The reason for the use of the automobile over the bad roads encountered in the South, to travel hundreds of miles, was to avoid the discomforts and difficulties incident to railroad travel in the admirable "jim crow" car. As one of these travelers by auto tersely put it, in explaining why he brought his family with a long distance in a private consortium, "We have considered too far the reason why the car is the Negro of the South put that many in motor cars. By so doing they can at least avoid the result and injustice involved in paying first class fare for inferior accommodation and watched service. This use of the motor car for long distance transportation means that the Negro is paying an extra price on account of the prejudice of the whites, when presents him from receiving equal railroad service for the same fare. But the white man is also paying for his prejudice in the loss of passenger traffic on the railroads. Less of the Southern railroads are in a position to negate the opportunity to increase their revenues. Yet the separate car laws enforced in most of the Southern states have this effect. The price of prejudice must be paid by all concerned. The Negroes who can possibly afford it pay by using the auto for necessary transportation. The white traveling public pay an increased fare for their exclusive right to first class transportation. The stockholders in the railroads pay by losing the dividends that their roads might earn if they provided equal accommodation for all passengers regardless of race or color. For the price of prejudice must be paid by all who come under its withering light. The image contains a single block of text. It is a simple paragraph with no images or graphics.

A proposal for the establishment of a branch of an Atlanta bank and trust company at Houston, Texas, if the local population would support it, elicited the following opinion from the editor of the Houston Freeman: Since the money and business genius are all here, why not use them for other promotions, such as a bank and trust company as Professor Zane suggests. It all officers and boards of directors are preferred and chosen because of their character, integrity and fitness and because of their practical experience and adaptability, rather than for some unqualified, sentiment and friendship, a bank and trust company in Houston, could be managed as successfully, if not more so, as the Farmers and Citizens Bank at Palestine, Texas, is managed. Have we confidence and have we faith in ourselves? It not why not. Every day when we scan the daily papers, those of us who read the papers see where white corporations are developing and expanding on matters with the money we deposit and keep in white banks at 4 per cent. per annum. The Freeman further suggested the movement he initiated with people who have succeeded in handling their own private affairs and whose character and personality are unaccepted.

Some people may think that since the expose of conditions in Haiti made two years ago the question has completely died. But this is not so. The last move in the matter is taken by the National Popular Government League, with headquarters in the Munsey Building, Washington. The League issued on Friday, April 28, a brief on the seizure of Haiti by the United States, prepared and signed by twenty-four of the ablest lawyers in the country. This brief discusses the whole question of the American occupation of Haiti from a legal and constitutional point of view. The League has issued this statement together with an address to the Secretary of State of the United States against the occupation of Haiti. The address to the Secretary of State concludes with the following paragraphs: We bring this subject to your attention, Mr. Secretary, with all the greater confidence since the opinion of the President upon it has been unreservedly expressed. Referring, in one of his speeches at Marion in the Fall of 1920, to the use of our military forces to impose an American-made constitution upon the helpless Haitians, he said: "If I should be, as I fully expect to be, elected President of this just and honorable republic, I will not impose an Assistant Secretary of the Navy to draft a constitution for helpless neighbors in the West Indies and jam it down their throats at the point of bayets home by United States marines. We have a higher service for our gallant marines than that. Nor will I misuse the power of the Executive to cover with a veil of secrecy repeated acts of unwarranted interference in the domestic affairs of the little republics of the Western Hemisphere, such as in the last few years have not only made enemies of those who should be our friends, but have rightfully discredited our country as their trusted neighbor." We recall the satisfaction this expression of opinion gave to so many American people at the time. They were only beginning to apprehend the ruthlessness and significance of our Haitian conquest when Mr. Harding denounced it in unmistakable terms. With that declaration fresh in our memories we cannot allow ourselves to question the probability of a prompt decision to reverse our imperialistic policies in the West Indies, which in the speech we quote were so justly condemned. With the sentiment of that speech and the principles vitalizing it every true American must sympathize; and so in behalf of the American people we confidently solicit the restoration by the President to the little Republic of Haiti and Santo Domingo the sovereignty over their domestic affairs which our Government has not only violated, but is continuing to violate. Among the members of the League who signed the address to Secretary Hughes are: Robert L. Owen, United States Senator from Oklahoma and President of the League; Jackson H. Ralston, an attorney, of Washington; Louis E. Post, former Assistant Secretary of Labor; Charles Edward Russell, author and publicist; and Judson King, Executive Secretary of the League. This move on the part of the National Popular Government League ought to have considerable effect. THE GENOA CONFERENCE The sensation caused by the signing of the German-Russian treaty at Genoa has subsided, but the situation is nevertheless critical. Just why the treaty should have caused a sensation is understandable only by those who are making a study of and following world politics as practiced in this age. Indeed, as the Russian delegates declared, the German-Russian treaty is a model for all the European nations to follow. The main difficulty at Genoa consists in problems in book-keeping. France owes England billions that she cannot pay. France is seeking to have Russia sign and acknowledge a note to her for billions that Russia cannot pay. Germany, according to the terms of the Versailles treaty, owes the Allies billions that she cannot pay, and the Allies in turn owes the United States billions that they cannot pay. Diplomacy at Genoa is largely a matter of juggling these figures in order that, according to the various ledgers of the various countries, everybody will have billions while actually they are broke. The main success of the German-Russian part was this: Germany said to Russia, "I owe you a lot of money that I cannot pay and you owe me a lot of money that you cannot pay." Russia in turn said the same thing to Germany. Then they both decided to dispense with unnecessary bookkeeping and wipe the slate clean. This action on the part of these two nations brought forth violent condemnation on the part of some of the Allies and threatened a disruption of the Conference. It is painful to those who love France to realize that she was the chief instigator of the condemnation and the threat. There seems to be very little hope for Europe and European civilization in the blind policy which is being pursued by her dominant political leaders. MORE MESSAGES FROM THE DEAD The public of the United States is being furnished more messages from the dead. At the present time these messages are being furnished not by some obscure and unknown person but by one of the most famous of living men, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Sir Arthur is at present lecturing in New York City to large audiences. He is supplementing his lectures by visual evidences in the shape of photographs, one photograph purported to be the picture of the soul leaving the body at the instant of death. No one who knows Conan Doyle by reputation or has heard him speak can doubt his sincerity. If he is wrong he has either been deceived or is deceiving himself. It would seem that Conan Doyle would be the last man in the world capable of being deceived on such a question. He is the creator of "Sherlock Holmes," the most famous detective in English fiction, the character whose business it was to solve mysteries, to look underneath the appearance of things and by the process of rationation arrive at the truth. If "Sherlock Holmes" could not be fooled how, then, it will undoubtedly be asked, can Conan Doyle be fooled? Conan Doyle is the creator of "Sherlock Holmes" and actually is "Sherlock Holmes." A few weeks ago I wrote about the message purported to be from Dr. Peebles. My comment was that the Doctor's message had very little value to us on this side because it was too vague. The only definite word he sent back was that he was not suffering any longer from rheumatism. Most people are likely to feel that the messages received by Mr. Doyle are the previ of living in the next world. For instance, he says regarding the relation of the sexes, "The marriage relation will be continued, but no babies will be born. Only the happily married will renew their alliances in the spirit world. The ill-mated do not meet again. Marriage will exist in a form less gross than here." In speaking of the stages passed through after death, Sir Arthur says, "People who refuse to take the spiritual side of life into consideration at all, who give no thought to anything but wealth or the attainment of titles, will not find themselves in paradise after death. They will go to purgatory, a grayer, darker, sadder world than this, from which they must gradually work up into paradise. But all ordinarily decent people will find themselves in paradise after death." This statement of Sir Arthur's ran so contrary to the generally accepted teaching, that the way to heaven is over a steep and rocky road, that he himself must have realized that it required some comment, so he followed it by saying, "You don't have to be very good to get to heaven. Even criminals can get there if they have some noble qualities. Theologians have made the attainment of heaven unnecessarily difficult." This doctrine, that the theologians have been putting it on a little thick and that any ordinarily well-behaved citizen stands as good a chance of getting to heaven as those who bend all of their efforts to that end, is likely to become more popular than anything else that Mr. Doyle says. Continuing in his detailed description of conditions on the other side, Sir Arthur said, "The spirit world is very much like this. Everybody is busy and society is decidedly complex. Angels are human beings who have died and risen from one world to another until they have reached a very high plane. The devil, on the contrary, is merely a human being of a persistently materialistic type, who has sunk to the lowest sphere of all after death." After reading this and a good many more of Sir Arthur's descriptions of life in the world to come, I wondered what character of messages from the dead will if take to convince the average person. Dr. Peebles tells too little and Sir Arthur tells too much. There is not enough in what Dr. Peebles said to believe, and in what Sir Arthur says there is too much. The most interesting question in my mind is, Why is Sir Arthur Conan Doyle following his present course? The answer would spring to the lips of many people. He is doing it for money; but Sir Arthur publicly declared at Carnegie Hall that he takes no money for his lectures, and it is likely that he has sufficient money to live as he wishes to live. It appears, then, that since Sir Conan Doyle, the creator of "Sherlock Holmes," could not easily be deceived by fakers, it is quite probable that he is deceiving himself. READY FOR THE BATH. HOUSE. With the approach of warmer weather, the residents of Harlem are taking renewed interest in the project of a public bath house, which was one of the improvements promised prior to the last municipal election. The securing of the appropriation of $200,000 for this public convenience was one of the outstanding constructive accomplishments credited to former Alberman Charles H. Roberts. A suitable site was selected and condemnation proceedings were stated to be well under way last Fall. Work on this bath house, which was to be located on 134th street, between Lenox and Faith avenues, should now be started if the dwellers of Harlem are to derive any benefit from it during this summer. The plans provided for a structure of three floors with a roof garden, with a total of 123 baths. A gymnasium was to be located on the third floor with a running track, locker forms for health care and store facilities. The whole project was one that promised much in the way of health giving exercise and sanitary convenience for the public of Harlem. Interest has not been lost in the public improvement, despite the race that no official action seems to have been taken upon it for several months. It would argue that Harlem's longer has an alderman who is interested in the public, pro-tect-planned for the benefit of that progressive section of the metropolis. It may be that the present alderman feels that the empty, bogus and the firehouse furnish ample bathing facilities for his constituency. TO BREAK THE SOLID SOUTH. The project of breaking the Solid South has long been a favored delusion of leading Republican politicians, including some of those who have occupied the presidential chair. A fine mass of political paper, much long-winded eloquence and many political day dreams have been spent in the vain attempt to reduce the vision to a reality. The South has calmly accepted all the Federal offices as a matter of right, listened to the outpouring of Presidential eloquence with more or less urbanity, and shattered the day dreams by continuing to vote the Democratic ticket with unabated solidarity. The latest attempt to break the Solid South, as we learn from the New Orleans James-Pioyne, is through the medium of a debating team from the Canisius High School of Buffalo, who have been on a speaking tour of the principal Southern cities. The piece advanced by these young orators was that adherence of the Southern States solidly to the Democratic party does not tend to the welfare of the South and the nation. Their speaking tour had included Pittsburgh, Memphis, Louisville, St. Louis, Vicksburg and New Orleans. They also expected to speak in Mobile, Jacksonville, Savannah and Charleston. They won a debate from the High School team in Vicksburg on the question of Southern political solidarity. It was said that the President had commended their project and that it had received the approval of United States Senators and Governors of the East. The effort of the school teachers is at least more hopeful than those fruitlessly expended by the politician, as their arguments may find a fertile soil in the minds of their youthful appents and heart fruit in another generation. intellectuals when it comes to voting any other than the Democratic ticket. RESUMPTION OF INDUSTRY. There are signs of a resumption of the normal course of industrial pursuit in various parts of the country. An announcement of the reopening of the iron works at Gary, Ill, carries the news that many Negro workers are among those who will again find employment. A similar situation should obtain in other industrial centres, which have been suffering from temporary paralysis. This industrial revival is due to a return to normal conditions in many times of business, which have cut out war wages and war profits and got back to a regular basis of supplying actual demands of their trade. To do this to advantage production must be succeeded up, so as to lessen the cost and reduce the selling price of the finished product. In this operation increased efficiency on the part of the workers is an essential element. The worker, male or female, who lags on the job and no time watching the clock, is due for a separation from his assignment. Efficiency and attention to the task in hand are required more than ever at this juncture. To those who expect a full pay earners at regular intervals must expect to pay regular and unremitting attention to the tasks allotted them in the industrial world. War times are over, with their easy work and big pay. The return to normal conditions, demands a strict performance of duty, with efficiency and alertness in meeting the change of pace. The keynote of success and permanent progress. The worker in all lines must "make good" in order to keep his job. A missionary, writing from Liberia, in a letter published in the Southern Indicator, of Columbia, S. C., referred to a native boy "from the Belly country, where people are eaten by cannibals." Hence the name given that locality, we are led to infer. Referring to the emphasis now placed on education in North Carolina by the State and county officials the Afro-American Presbyterian of Charlotte said that the slogan now is to establish a rural standard high school in every county. It added: We are wondering, however, how far the Negro race is to share in this proposed high school program, for it is a deplorable fact that there is not one standard public high school for Negroes in the centre State of North Carolina. Those in control of the educational affairs of the State should be requested to so revise the slogan that it will read two standard public high schools for each county instead of one. For if there is only one, judging from the past, it goes without saying that that one will be for the white race It is a definite sign of progress that North Carolina has become aroused to the necessity of high school facilities for the whites. When equal facilities are provided for both races, then only will the dangers of ignorance and illiteracy be averted. According to the Jacksonville Florida Postmaster, the Congressional convention of the fourth district of Florida met in Palm Bay and nominated Howard Meier for governor.

The of this campaign was to bring to the man who hires and the man to the end that they might better acquaint. Every man, woman and child is to assist the public program.

Lawyers, doctors, medical urgently requested to take an offer in this passage undertaking. There be several speakers throughout that week and the program will be asked to furnish the room with a night that they too might and celebrate this impressive event.

It gives a hearing to many bards whose song has been heard within a limited scope, and it affords mechance to the race, as much as to the whites, of the literary and development of Negro writers. The poets are quoted by Mr. Johnson in this volume, which, with biographical index of authors, and index of titles, contains 217 proceeded by a preface of forty-two pages. It was the author's edition, as stated in the preface, to select some swerty-five to thirty poems with a few words of introduction and without comment. It seems to me, the work took on a greater magnitude because of material which came to the author's service, and, as he says, a controlled which was at first established "has been broadened if not of this expansion is found in the face that there are 117 poems author being represented with twelve poems and several with only the Preface.

Reference is also made to a Negro poet who preceded Phyllis.

When star after star came out The sun was a collection My soul so leapt that my evening prayer Sole my morning song." A number of Mr. Johnson's own poems are included in the collection, including his well known "Fifty, Years" and "White Witch." In "Preface Mr Johnson makes interesting comment on Negro music, detailing particularly upon that class of composition which is constructed in the compated form—ordinarily called ragtime. With reference to this Mr. Johnson declares that ragtime "is the most artistic production by which America is known the world over. It is known all conquering. Everywhere it is known the music it makes the farther it ventures that the growth and development of ragtime has made it now more national than racial, but that this "does not abolish in any way the claim of the American Negro as its originator." It is clear that in his discussion of the subject Mr. Johnson is considering from the casual viewpoint of its relation to the principal subject of his book, the Negro in poetry. Consequently he purposely refrains from doing more than skimming the surface. The creation and development of ragtime music came rather from the Negro rhythmic sense than from specialized knowledge of music. And, according to Mr. Johnson, it came to New York in the reports of southern river towns. St. Louis, Memphis and others, making the trip by way of Chicago, where it first accorded a popular hearing at the world's fair. In support of his argument in behalf of ragtime, Mr. Johnson cites its originality, evidenced in one way by the popularity it enjoys among all civilized peoples where it has been heard. "For if it were an imitation," said the writer, "the people of Europe, at least, would not have found it a novel. And it is proof of a more important thing, it is proof that ragtime possesses the vital spark, the power to appeal universally, without which any artistic production, no matter how approved its form may be, is dead." Writing of the Negro Spirituals, the writer says: "In the spirituals' or slave songs, the Negro has given America not only its only folksongs, but a mass of noble music. I never think of this THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, APRIL 29, 1923. Chicago Women's Minstrels In Brooklyn Performance New Yorkers did not respond in overwhelming numbers to the attraction offered by the Chicago Women's Amateur Minutech, brought to this city by Mrs. Edwin F. Horne of Brooklyn in interest of the Brooklyn Urban League and its activities, and appearing in its offering, "The Foolies," on Monday evening, April 24th. In the opera house of the Academy of Music in the City of Homes and Churches. When the curtain rose, disclosing to the view of those present an attractive and beautifully blended ensemble, Mrs. George Cleveland Hall and her Chicago associates were seen to be surrounded by a group of native beauties, composed of many of the most popular maids and matrons of Greater New York, making up the supporting chorus. Mrs. Hall, as interlocutor, was stately and dignified in white flannels, but unfortunately was suffering from the effects of a cold, which made her work much more difficult. Mrs. Gertrude Harrison, at the piano, was a capable musical director, and handled the score, the company on the stage, and the orchestra in the pit, made up of players from Deacon Johnson's Musicians Exchange, with competent authority. Mrs. James Francis Lawson, stage manager, also enacted the part of "Slim," one of the black-faced tambos. Mrs. Hazel Thompson Davis, well known in New York as a pupil of the late Aida Overton Walker, was director of the fancy dances. It was a long program, twenty-seven numbers being given, but it moved with commendable celerity and the performance lasted just a little more than two hours. The show cannot, of course, be judged by professional standards, and then, too, it is decided unethical to critically review performances given in the interest of charity. The eight end men, four tambos and four bones, were "Sim," "Smoke" (Mrs. Morris Lewis), "Snowdrop" (Mrs. Alexander L. Jackson), "Ham" (Mrs. Etta Shoerit), "Elder" (Mrs. Leonard Speed), "Smit" (Miss Grace Anderson), "Licorice" (Miss Juanta Anderson), and "Ink" (Miss Blanche Shaw). They kept up a lively repartee with the interlocutor, interlarding their saliilles with many local allusions, personal and otherwise. Each one also did a musical number. The special soloists of the evening were Mrs. Edith Curry, Miss Marion Harrison, Miss Gladys Allen, Mrs. Reginald Hardin, Mrs. Barbara Goodall, Miss Clementine Frierson, Mrs. Hazel Thompson-Davis, Miss Dorothy Sheecht, Miss Lillian Speed and Miss Caro Lewis of Chicago, and Mrs. Eiffel Stannard Smith of Brooklyn. Mrs. Bollie Jennings, Miss Horton Hall and Miss Billie Lawson collaborated in a snipy dance number, and Mrs. Jennings and Miss Emelyne Shaw did a "dance potpourri" exhibiting a variety of movements, Mrs. Thompson-Davis interpreted "The Endantress," a Ruth St. Denis, and Mrs. Earl Guavara did the "Song of India," a song and interpretive dance. Miss Gladys Allen and a group of school children in "Those days are music but I am struck by the wonder, the miracle of its production. * * * It is to be noted that whereas the chief characteristic of ragtime is rhythm, the chief characteristic of the "spiritual" is melody. * * * In the roctous rhythms of ragtime the Negro expressed his irrepressible buoyancy, his keen response to the sheer joy of living; in the spirituals he voiced his sense of beauty and deep religious feeling. * Continuing, Mr. Johnson comments: "These Negro followers constitute a vast mine of material that has been neglected almost absolutely. The only white writers who have in recent years given adequate attention and study to this music, that I know of, are Mr. H. E. Krebbiel and Mes. Natalie Curtis Burlin. We have our native composers denying the worth and importance of this music, and trying to manufacture grand opera out of so-called Indian themes. But there is great hope for the development of this music, and that hope is the Negro himself. A worthy beginning has already been made by Burleigh, Cook, Johnson and Dett. And there will yet come great Negro composers who will take this music and voice through it not only the soul of their race, but the soul of America. "And does it not seem odd that this greatest gift of the Negro has been the most neglected of all he possesses? Money and effort have been expended upon his development in every direction except this. This gift has been regarded as a kind of side show, something for occasional, exhibition, whereas it is the souchestone, it is the magic thing, it is that by which the Negro can bridge all chasms. No persons, however hostile, can listen to Negroes singing this wonderful music without having the hostility melted down." For this championship of the cause of Negro music and for the telling to the world the story of the Negro's creative genius, Mr. Johnson deserves and has the earnest, sincere appreciation of all who have race interest at heart.

Fred R Moore, editor of Turt New York Acr, and an honorary member of the society, arrived just as Mr. Dickerson was concluding his address. Hardly had Mr. Moore been seated there were cries from all over the house for "speech's speech!" Mr. Moore spoke. And his speech will long be remembered by some. Among other things, he advised cooperation where success was to be achieved "Patronize race enterprises and pull together. Don't wait until a member dies for him to benefit, but let him benefit while he lives, by building up businesses and giving employment to the race," said the speaker. He pointed out instances where success had been won and lost by members of the race through hard management, and also where those who had been fortunate are still pushing forward. Dr. William C. Brown responded to Mr. Moore's address. William C. Henry made brief remarks, and advised cooperation and economy. Miss Anna Dickerson rendered a piano solo, after which everybody was served chicken salad, ham and cheese sandwiches, coffee, ice cream and cake. The Society of the Sons of North Carolina was organized on May 5th, 1895, with a dozen members. The membership now totals more than 250.

Moore, head teacher, and John A. Snyder, gave evidence of directed thought and careful preparation. Thursday night was patrons' night and quite a number of white as well as colored citizens were present. J. Arthur Wirgins, president of the Bank of Denmark, was the principal speaker of the evening.

At 2 p.m. a large crowd gathered in the chapel to listen to an address by Rev. Dr. R. A. Cornelius of Bamberg. Led by the band the student body and the entire audience matched to the grave and while singing the favorite hymn of Miss Wright, the grave was covered with flowers. A beautiful engraved and decorated lyre, the gift of the White Rose Temperance Club, was placed at the head and a cross made wholly of white roses, the gift from the Lily Club, was placed at the foot. After prayer by the principal, the large crowd dispersed and the students returned to their dormitories. At 8:15 the "Faculty Concert" was rendered by a select group of eighteen teachers. The exercises consisted of choreas, dances and color, melodies sweet and enchanting as the songs of a summer's eye. At close of the concert the "Final Ride" was made and the report from teachers, student teachers, choreas and friends of the school showed that $567.94 was collected in cash. Thus ended one of the greatest weeks in the history of the school. THE STAGE AND ATHLETICS V. B. A. Midnight Benefit Performance of Highest Class (By Lucien H. White) With George M. Cohan, outstanding figure or worldwide fame in the theatrical world, present in person, contributing three of his own songs and readings, with a dancer thrown in for good measure, and with an array of Big Time" acts never before a combined one bill in a Harlem blackface, the mammoth midnight benefit for the relief fund or the C. V. B. A. fund, reached the high water mark both in the entertainment offered and in the appreciation shown by an audience that packed the Lincoln Theatre on Saturday night, April 22nd. As a matter of fact, there was no room on the program for all the available, even though the performance lasted a good two hours, and a half interest and eighth were at fever heat, from the first streams of the "Shuffle Along Overgrace" as played by the Alive Ross Orchestra, followed by the exquisitely clever work of Howard & Brown, and teaching a max when George M. Cohan, New York's leading act as a promoter and manager, appeared before the hostlight, and informed the audience that he was glad to be present and that he was with the C. V. B. A. Inc., "hook line and snorker" in all its efforts. And the sincere earnestness of the man and the eater, as with which he gave his numbers, accompanied by his own praises, evidenced that he meant what he said. Every number, from Howard Brown to the Hilton in Disney company, which with a part of its members, closed the show, was of the highest class and the very most showcased its enthusiasm in the most unmistakable way. Each number could have responded to unimaginable encores, but the length of the program made it necessary that encores be curtailed. Even though at times the stage lights were cut off and the music stopped, the anthem gave voice to a desire for more. The announcer, Johns Glenn, had frequently to request a reposition of the anthems that the program public carried out. BY BOB SLATER A CARD. Al Harrison was the voluntarily en- cipient your director for the entire pro- gram. Chloe Giffin of the U.K. Imperial Jungle company made a desperate effort to present. The company plied in New London, England on April night, and the company took a clock, put in the office and waited night. Mr. Giffin of the U.K. im- reaching New London, England and rushed in a car to the lobby but regardless of breaking the speed limit, he did not get to the London the audience had departed and the were out. Manager "Bob" and Nec- tary "Jim" Slater, of the U.K. B.A. however, were found, as were a num- ber of the numbers and friends, and they united in giving the race most nored actor a royal welcome. The management of the Lincoln, Mrs Marie Downs, proprietor, and R. M. Snyder, manager, placed the C. V. B. A under obligations by giving the use of the building without charge. Lorenza facility was offered for Mrs Downs, Snyder and their assistants for the use of carrying out the benzine plant. A substantial unit sufficient for loading up the debout in the building was realized from the building. The C. V. B. A, the office of twenty years ago, is now located at Lenox avenue, where the building is comfortable and easily accessible. The building is peeled at the midnight business hour: Howard & Brown; Darys Martin Cook & Smith; Love & Silsbee; George M.

AT LAFAYETTE THEATRE The Dunbar Players are presenting this play at the Lafayette week. The Dunbar Man" a romance of Mexico in art, art. On the group. "The Dunbar Man" seems to us to be the best act in only because the play itself is weak, but to some extent because we think that Miss Glen Desmond is meant as the young daughter of a seriously wealthy Mexican crime coveter. There are, however, many inter-acting and animating parts of the play, and the musical accompaniments were much more appropriate than in the case of the other three" play. Despite the Dunbar Man of her part, Miss Desmond does some good acting, as does Percy Vewayne, Edith Lewis, Thomas, Edwald Thompson and Andsw Burling.

THE LINCOLN THEATRE The long-awaited New Ingram production of "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse" is coming to the Lincoln Theatre beginning Thursday. This is the picture that cost Metro $14,000,000 to make, and from all accounts $14,000,000 was well spent as critics agree that all other efforts at production on a grand scale have been surpassed and record runs have been made in New York, Chicago, Boston, Pittsburgh, Detroit, Los Angeles, and other cities where the picture has been pretty close. Fifty principles and 2,500 extra were engaged in the editing of the globe-dome, an entire French village and an elaborate chateau were created to be destroyed under the攻城器械 bombardment at the German invaders, and more than 125,000 tons of massives, steel, lumber and furniture were used in breaking backgrounds that are said to reproduce with absolute独性 the shifting power. rania of the story. The appeal of the story-itself has already been proved through the success of the novel by Vincente Blasco Ibanez, upon which the photodrama is founded. Its sale throughout thw world runs into the millions, but millions more will probably have it revealed to them the first time through the medium of the screen production. This production is reported to have followed faithfully the one fate of human passion against the background of the Great War as related by Ibanez. The scenario was written by June Mathers; John Seitz was responsible for the photograph; and the technical directors were Amos Myers and Joseph Calder. Walter Mayo was assistant to Ross Inuffa. "Shuffle Along." No. 2. In Newark. (Source: In The New York Age.) Newark, N.

A HIT IN NEW ORLEANS New Orleans, La.-The Ethel Watera's Company, Lester A. Walton manager, of New York, played a week's engagement at the Lyric Theatre of this city beginning Monday, April 17th, and offered a show that drew a record attendance at every performance for this playhouse. It has been voted the cleanest and strongest company of vaudeville performers, offered at the Lyric in a long time. So popular as entertainers did it become after showing a few days that the New Orleans Item, a big daily here per- sisted the manager to have the compa- ny's star and its jazz band to go to its office on Friday night and have their work radophoned all over the city and the surrounding territory. And on Saturday morning on the first page The Item told its readers of the way the blues-singer and jazz players stirred the Radio tans by its hit. Frida- night might after the show the Astorina Hotel had the company and manager with honor guests at a special entertain- ment in the Red Room of the Hotel. A toothsome collation was served the guests and the hall was thronged.

MIDGET 1. Buffalo "M". 2. St. Christopher "M". On Monday evening, April 24, the Buffalo "M's" again proved superior to the St. C "M's", by defeating them at the score of 26-15. The game at times was unnecessarily tough but at the many exciting plays were made. Both teams knew that this contest would decide the supremacy of their division, so, of course, though the opponents are the best of friends on --- the outside, they thought little of one another on the floor. Thornton White of the Buffalos made the first point of the game on a foul. Then the fireworks started. Lightning passes were made by both teams. Accurate shooting on the part of the Buffalos enabled them to take a lead and keep it. After the first 15 minutes of hand struggling the score was announced as 11-3, with the St. C quattling on the small end. With the opening of the second half St. C came out fresh and full of determination. Charlie Wells of the Buffalos proved to be the outstanding feature of the game with his sensational scoring. This half was a regular battle. During the battle somebody made 'Lil' Exley peeved. St. C made several desperate attempts to catch up but the lead was too overcome in that length of time. In next week's issue will be given full account and results of the first annual Older Boy's Sunday School Athletic meet to be held at McCombs Dam Park Saturday afternoon April, 29, 1922. ORDER YOUR COPY NOW DAN EDWARDS KNOCKS OUT KID RASH IN 4TH Danny Edwards, the sensational western bantamweight fighter, proved his superiority over the best the East had to offer by knocking out Kid Rash, the bantam champion of the National Guard, in the fourth round of their scheduled twelve-round bout at the 15th Regiment Armory on Friday night, April 21st. Although the bout was short it was the best that has been presented at this armory, and was witnessed by a crowd that packed the place to the doors. Both fighters fought every second of the time they were in the ring, with the local fighter going against odds he could not overcome. His weight was five pounds less than that of his opponent and Edwards, short, hands and rugged with an unusual strong punch, offered a striking contrast to the slender frail-looking fighter of the 15th. The task of winning by a knockout was no easy one, however, and Edwards was given a tough time in the first two rounds. In the third round, Rash began to weary of the fast pace set by his opponent and began to hit wild. In the next round he was caught off his guard, and a blow to the jaw hung him over the ropes in a gregyg condition. He took the count of nine, but his head had not cleared and he was promptly finished when he came back into the ring. His seconds had to carry him to his corner and it was several minutes before he was himself again. Edwards was given a tremendous ovation for his feet, and Rash was also loudly cheered for the game fight he had made. Edwards' weight was announced at 118 pounds and that of Rash at 114 pounds. The final contest of eight rounds when the limit and was achieved a draw by the referee after the judges and disagreed. The contestants in this fight were Kid Bacon of the 15th and Johnnie Lavender of the 9th Coast Defense. Lavender, who weighed 134 pounds to his opponent's 126, proved to be a slow and inexperienced fighter. Bacon was also out of training, and the bout was an interesting affair. In the best of the preliminaries, Willie Knight was awarded the judge's decision over Franklin Polo after four furious rounds of fighting. In the other preliminaries, Kid Chambers and Danny Coles fought a draw, but the bout between Kid Bennett and Jimmie Orchard was declared no contest, when Orchard quit in the first round. A large number of prominent fighters and other notables crowded the ringside, and several of them posed for pictures with Edwards after the main bout. Among those present were Harry Wills and his manager, Paddy Mullins, Panama Joe Gans, Bob Armstrong, and a number of men prominent in sporting circles here. The bouts were refereed by Jesse Shipp, Jr., and Eddie Pollock. The judges were Harry Bulger and John Riland; and the timekeeper, Dick Key. THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, APRIL 29, 1932. april 15-3t ed to attend a meeting at 302 West 138th street, on Monday, May 1st, at 8 o'clock, p. m., to consider the organization of a New York branch of the Knoxville College Alumni Association.

On Wednesday evening Mendias Bradley, Haygood and Sims gave a union concert with program by the White Rose Praying Hand. Mrs. Sims was director, assisted by Mrs. Inez Overby who instructed the music. The entertainment was a glowing success. On Thursday evening an Easter party was given by Mrs. Sarah Jones, Mrs. Aneather Reed and W. T. Nichols. The program was directed by Mrs. Bessie Brooks. Solos were rendered by Miss Cornelia Dickerson and Mr. Simmons. The prayer meeting was largely attended on Friday evening. Sunday morning at 11 a. m., my congregation was unusually large. The choir, under the direction of W. A. Calhoun, was at its best. Our pastor greached an able sermon from the subject, "Jesus, the sin-breaker." The message went home to the hearers and twelve joined the church with one conversion. The family business continues to pro press under Mr. Johnson's supervision. The Missionary Sisters had an excellent service at p. m. under direction of Mrs. R. Price. Topic for discussion was "We all must appear in the Judgment," opened by Mrs. Nancy Jones and Mrs. Ida Townes. The program was in charge of Mrs. Nannie Stokes. The B. Y. P. U. under Pres. Lloyd, is preparing for a week's service known as the layman's revival. At the evening service, Rev. John Joseph delivered a message from the subject, "God's Promise." At the close the pastor made an appeal and four persons responded, two of which were happily concerted; and the other two reinstated. Collection, $409.24. St. Mark's M. E. Church.

AN EXCELLENT, showing was made by the colored representative of Stuyvesant and De Witt Clinton High Schools at the twenty-third annual inter-scholastic track meet held under the auspices of New York University on Saturday, April 22nd. Although there were more than 400 athletes from the forty-five high schools of Greater New York entered in the meet, the colored athletes were winners in four of the fourteen events. That the Stuyvesant team was an easy winner of the meet, with 37 points, was due to a large extent to the work of Carlos Figueroa, who won the 220-yard dash and running broad jump for his team. In the 220-yard dash, another Negro athlete, Fred Handy of De Witt Clinton, ran a close second, and forced Figueroa to make the distance in 23 3-5 seconds, which comes close to equaling the inter-scholastic record for this event. J. Young, a colored athlete from the East Orange High School, sprung a big surprise at the meet by defeating I. Major, the colored holder of the interscholastic high jump record of 5 feet 9 inches. Major was considerably off form on Saturday, however, and was beaten by Young with a leap of 5 feet 8 inches. Figueroa, of Stuyvesant, was third in this event. In the 440-yard event, Babe Cook, another colored athlete of De Witt Clinton, was an easy winner, covering the distance in 1:53 2-5. Through the efforts of Cook, Handy and Major, the De Witt Clinton team was able to win third place at the meet with a total of thirteen points. ORIENTALS SCORED BIG SUCCESS PAST SEASON New Rochelle, N. Y. With a record of 18 victories, 9 losses, and one tie game, the Oriental "Speed Merchants" of New Rochelle, N. Y., new entrants among the big clubs of the East, brought to a close the most successful season of their career. With the addition of "Zan" Anderson and Louis Garcia, both former members of the St. Christopher Club, so their regular team, they formed a combination that held their own with the best in the East. Starting their season off with victories over the Mpravian Big Five, followed by wins over the New York Academy heavyweights and Harlem All Stars, they gave proof of their scoring ability and plenty of confidence to back it up. The management put on many big attractions at the New Rochelle High School, engaging every big team in the East, with the exception of the St. Christopher "Machine" and Vandals. Other victories were scored over the Jersey City Independents, Westchester All Stars, Tuxedo A. C. of Montclair, Alpha Big Five, Spartan "Braves," Titans of Orange, N. J., Mamaroneck K. of C., K. L. T's of Mt. Vernon, Lincoln (pro) Stars, Dexter Big Five, Lincoln A. C. of Mt. Vernon, Neptune Big Five, and Yonkers Tygars, on both home and neutral courts. Games were lost to the Delender A. C., of Chicago, Alpha Big Five; Dundee B. C. of Orange, Spartan "Braves," Titans in Newark, Bronx Jewish Institute, Dexter Big Five, and B. A. C. The tie game with the New York State All Leaguers. They scored 28 games, 842 points, allowing their opponents 583. The team registered 347 field baskets, and 148 fouls. The entire squad will be intact for next season. Charges brought up against them by the M. B. A. mainly through jealously of other clubs in the organization, has placed them in temporary disqualification, but the management is sure matters will be straightened out by the time the 1922-23 season opens.
