Their new store will occupy the entire Seventh avenue side of the building, extending back forty feet on 138th street. It is being constructed according to their specifications, with four entrances, each with double action doors, curved glass vestibules and show windows similar to those of the Woolworth and Kiss stores. A Phenomenal Growth A I Hart Company has had a philanthropic history during its four years existence, and despite the business depression some of the soundest and most productive related businesses in Harlem. Its history is an interesting one and is intertwined into that of the company and partner, Arthur L. Hast, Hart, who is one of the youngest business men in the community, was born in Jamaica. B W L. twenty-eight years ago and the youngest business trainee at his age assisting his father who owned a small community store in that place. When he fourteen years of age, he left father's business, and entered Company of an uncle, who had just opened a department store at Kingston. He grew up with this business, and at the age of twenty became manager of the three stores of his uncle's western sales ladies under his supervision. During these years he had been heard speaking in the United States, and once in New York City. He finally decided to muster up New York, told at least eight years ago to join his uncle and came back to his hometown was.

The Cathedral Chapel of the Good dence is located at 224 West 135th Independent Encyclopedia The same conditions which operated in other white religious bodies to compel self-respecting Negroes to organize independent Methodist and Baptist churches controlled by themselves, have been operating in the Protestant Episcopal Church for many years. Unwilling to tolerate themselves from their white brethren, Negro Episcopal churches have over thirty years, been amusing ministries and petitions to the Central Convention asking, in view of the restrictions and handicap which their treasuries in the performance of their work at the Negro congregations relied on, in their jurisdictions, such with their shop in full charge, while the churches continue their administration of the white congregations in their including himself. Nevertheless, his first two years proved so prosperous that he was able to secure a lease on the other half of the store, doubling his floor space. The business continued to grow, and in 1904 he opened a second store on Second Avenue near 113rd street. Later that year he added a balcony to his first store and opened a "bargain basement" to the 113rd street store. Improvement for $80,000. In 1890 he had the interest incorporated under the laws of this state for the first time in order that more capital be invested in the company. He also made some donations to the company, which he bought for the company to expand. At first most of the members of the organization thought it would be better for the company to operate a number of small stores in Harlem. But the present plan of the company is to concentrate their resources into one large store, centrally located, and make this the shopping center of the colored section of Harlem. So the company has secured a ten-year, lease on the new store at 130th street and Seventh avenue, and will sell almost every kind of article known that retails at from one cent up to a dollar. The company has for several years been a member of the Consolidated Merchants Syndicate, a buying organization with offices at 400 Broadway. It has a membership of 835 stores in all parts of the country, and through it each member store is able to buy goods at the lowest prices. By buying in this manner and selling at a small profit for cash, the company is able to compete with the biggest, five and ten cent stores in the city. The profits of the business, however, is dependent upon the volume of sales made. That Mr. Hart has been conducting this business in the most scientific manner, may be also seen by the fact that it is one of the few Negro business receiving a first class rating from the commercial agencies of R. G. Dunn & Co., and Radrstreets. The number of employees of the business have grown from three to eleven, and there will be twice this number employed when the new store is opened.

This arrangement, instead of alleviating the condition from which relief was sought, has only served to further aggrandize it. The Negro Episcopalians asked for bread and received a sense, for fish and received a serpent. Hearing against hope they will cling to the Protestant Episcopal Church in the expectation that they will possibly win out in the end, and at some future time, Negro bishops will sit in the House of Bishops on parity with White bishops. A few of those elected bishops have decided that they have needed long counsels, and being seriously convinced that their white ecclesiastical counsels will pay more what they have earned of it, are well intended to be bishops of the South. Virginia Assists Norfolk In Welcome to Negro Bus. League 23rd Annual Session Given a Royal Welcome—Many Social Courtesies Provided (Special to The New York Age) Norfolk, Va.—All of Tidewater Virginia is joining in with Norfolk in giving a royal welcome to the twenty-third annual meeting of the National Negro Business League, which convened here this week, being in session three days, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, August 17, 18 and 19.

Indicted by a grand jury for incarceration in the first degree, charged with stealing an automobile some three weeks ago, James Morton, 19 years old, was promptly acquitted by a jury in the Court of General Sessions, Judge Manceuse presiding, when his attorney, Henry A. Rucker, Jr., of 799 Broadway, brought out at the trial that an alleged confession claimed by the police to have been made by young Morton was, enforced, by application of the third degree in some of its most regimental aspects by police of the Times Square district. According to the testimony, when young Morton was taken to the police station he was beaten severely about the face and head with a rubber hoop, alleged to have been handled by an officer named Owens.

ONLY WOMAN LAW DEAN IS HOWARD GRADUATE Washington, D. C.—Miss Emma M. Gillett, dean of Washington College of Law, is the only woman in the United States holding a similar position. She was banqueted recently at the Grace Dodge Hotel, and prominent men and women paid tribute to her work as a teacher and practitioner of law. Race interest is centered in the career of Gillett, a white woman, by reason of the fact that she pursued her law studies at Howard University, winning her degree in 1883. Howard being the only law school in America at that time open to women. Miss Gillett has just celebrated her 70th birthday. was given Monton's spirit was broken and he signed a statement acknowledging that he had stolen the auto. However, it was brought out by Counsellor Rucker that Morton, who lives at 340 West 41st street, had been invited to take a ride by another boy, that he accepted the invitation; the party being made up of two girls and two other boys. The party drove to Harlem and on the return trip, with Morton at the wheel, the police intercepted the party at 60th street and Central Park West. It then developed that one of the boys who had invited Morton to join a ride had stolen the car from Tennesse Square while its owners attending a theatre. When these facts were brought out by young Morton's parents, the jury remanded the police posthumously for promptly reminding a member of the guilty. It is said that he was involved in the (Special to The New York Age). Washington, D.

Mitchell of the District of Columbia, assisted by a host of grand masters from jurisdictions in all sections of the country. This ceremony was held at 4 p. m. on Tuesday, August 8. The Knights Templars parade, a magnificent display, was held Thursday afternoon, and it was reviewed for a half hour by the President of the United States, Warren G. Harding. The Shriners will meet in 1923 at Indianapolis, the Grand Masters at Nashville, Term, and the Knights Templars go to Pittsburgh. The Eastern Star Grand Chapters will meet at Nashville with the Grand Masters. David W.

This function was held on Thursday night, August 10, and Liberty Hall was specially arranged and decorated for the occasion. All the trappings and finery associated with one's idea of a throne and the ceremonial color scheme even the present gilder were taken from apperance in the same class with a swirled candle.

Announcements of the impending ceremony stated distinctly and definitely that formal evening dress for, both men and women would be absolutely required. It was no modification of this requirement that an addenda explained that "its equivalent" (that is, the equivalent of form dress) would be satisfactory. There were many strictly conforming to Dame Fashion's decree as to what is to be worn for formal evening occasions, but it was the "equivalent" clause which added variety to the evening. For, judging by the costumes in evidence, imagination had run riot when those of the guest so inclined endeavored to use to the fullest degree the scope permitted by the concession allowed in the phrase, "its equivalent." The result was that every imaginable sort of uniform was in evidence, for the most hypercritical could not deny that a uniform is sine qua non as an White Men for Lynching son's white citizens, including and wealthiest men, were in Bibb County grand jury on for the purpose of lynching, and weapons without a license, of John ("Cocky") Glover, on Aug. 1.

Ceremonies The strong of attendants at the court ministries filled the vast amphitheatre to its utmost capacity and every officer in the walls was a mass of petering humanity. Preceding the conferring of honors, an elaborate program was carried out. The Black Star Line band played cacophonously; Miss Ethel Onghton Clarke, coloratura soprano, Thomas R. Hall, basso, and Mme. Marie Barrier Houston, soprano, sang, with Miss Revella Hughes at the piano; upon the entrance of His Excellency, Honorable Marcus Garvey, President General and Provisional President of Africa, the band played the national anthem of Africa, evidently an original composition; then when His Excellency, whose imperial garth was topped by a towering red plume, had ascended the kingly dois, these followed a procession of his subjects passing in review, led by the Chaplain General and other officials. Following the procession came an inspection of the African Guard, and the women of the Black Cross Nurses and Motor Corps groups. Deputies and a number of the delegates, men and women, were presented to His Excellency, and each one was required to kneel in humble submission at the foot of the throne. The individuals chosen for special high honors were announced as having been recommended by His Excellency, the Provisional President of Africa. The honors dispensed included investiture of the "Dulce of Uganda." "Dulce of the Niger." "Knight Commander, Order of the Nile." and "Knight Commander, Distinguished Service Order of Ethiopia." The subjects honored were named by the Honorable F. Wilcoom Ellegor, High Commissioner, and brought, under proper escort, to the foot of the girone, where each kneeled and received his accolade from the sword wielded by His Excellency, Provisional President Garvey. Those Who Were Honored. Garvey's Officers Draw MoreThan$143,000Yearly In last week's Act, a story was printed concerning the "Huge Salary List of the U. N. I. A." and in this article it was conservatively estimated that a calculation of the salaries paid officers of the organization totalled "something like $50,000." That this figure is way below the actual total of salaries as listed by the Survey organization. The Act is able to show through figures given to an investigator of this paper by a man who is in a position to know just about what the various officers are paid. The disclosure of his identity might lead to placing him in an embarrassing position, as his present relations are to some extent intimately concerned with Garvey's activities. The estimate of $50,000 as a yearly total of salaries proves to be nearly 200 per cent, below the alleged actual figures. Without including any of the office clerical force of the U. N. I. A., or the employees of the various subsidiary concerns, including The Negro World, the official newspaper of the organization, salary figures show that some twenty-four of the executive officers are listed as drawing the enormous sum of $143,220 yearly. Add to this huge sum the salaries and wages paid to innumerable employees engaged in various activities of the U. N. I. A.; and the total will probably be pretty close to the $200,000 mark. As estimated last week, the salary paid the Hon. Gabriel O. Johnson, High Permanent, $12,000 per annum, exceeds that paid the Hon. Marcel Garvey, President General, $10,000 per annum. BUT—Garvey is also Provisional President of Africa, and a salary of $11,000 per annum attaches to this. SO—skillful handling of the situation brings Garvey $21,000 a year, but still he can say with truth that he is not the highest salaried officer on the pay roll. And then, during the active operation of the Black Star Line, there was an additional salary of 200 weekly allowed to be paid to Garvey as president of that subsidiary. Information is that this stipend is not now being paid. In the former article the salary of the International Organizer, Miss or Lady Herteltta Vinton Davis, was said to be $4,000. Information is that this salary is $6,000 per annum. The following summary of salaries has been furnished The Ace, and the informant alleges that they are, for all practical purposes, essentially accurate. Chesapeake Hayford of Seimada, Cape, Africa, made "Knight Commander, Order of the Nila." "Sir" George C. Renaeu of Puerto Barrera, Guatemala, Central America, "Knight Commander, Distinguish- Service, Order of Ethiopia." "Sir" Chifford A. Bouneau of Puerto Barrera, Guatemala, Central America, "Knight Commander, Distinguish- Service, Order of Ethiopia." Ladice Presented at Court. Only the great male was represented for the above list, but the ladies, God knows, were not slighted. According to the program, officially promulgated and elaborately printed in red, black and green, six ladies were singled out for honorable distinction, but it appears they had to be satisfied with the honor of being presented to His Excellency, for there is no record of any other accolade coming their way. In the cases of the men, they were uniformly accorded for "Faithful and Distinguished Service to Negro Race." But the ladies were granted favor through the recompensation of various high officials. These presented to His Excellency were: Their Names Mone. M. M. Sharpersen Young of New York City, recommended by High Commissioner Ellegor. Presentation of young ladies in their debut: Miss Hasel Smith and Miss Marina Wallace of Chicago, recommended by His Excellency, Hon. Rudolph Smith, West Indian Leader. Miss Vella Bundy of Cleveland, recommended by His Excellency, Hon. Marcus Garvey, Provisional President of Africa. Miss Loretta Baker of New York, recommended by Hon. F. Wilcom Ellegor, High Commissioner General. Miss Hollness of Cuba, recommended by Hon. F. Wilcom Ellegor, High Commissioner General. Way Not a "Bad Last." According to numbers recommended the High Commissioner General had a throttle hold on the job, with three candidates. The West Indian Leader was a close second with two, but the fact that Provisional President Garvey was last with one candidate does not signify that he was, as the race track habitus say, a "bad last." An elaborate reflection was served by His Excellency's staff of court assistants, the Lord. High Chamberlin evidently being in charge, but no public announcements was made as to his or her personal identity. Then followed the court ball, at which the newly created noblemen and the debutantes joined with his majesty and the court, with the countless hosts of acyletes, lookers on and those favored with invitations, in tripping the light fantastic use to strains of the latest jazz maniacations, music of a great-Republic, in the midst of which was the anomaly of an imperialistic, festivity, with men being knighted, women being received at court, and countess subjects bending the knee in adoration before the kingly throne.

Dyer Scores Negroes of Springfield Because of Apparent Lukewarmness in Vital Matter That Affects the Race's Interest (Special to The New York Age). Springfield Mass. — Congressman L. C. Dyer of Missouri, sponsor of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, and Frederick H. Gillet of Massachusetts, speaker of the House of Representatives, were the principal spokesmen at a meeting in interest of the Dyer Bill, held here in the Auditorium on Sunday, August 6, in the afternoon. James Weldon Johnson, executive secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., New York City, presided. About 800 people attended the meeting and they gave an enthusiastic greeting to the speakers. Resolutions were read by the Rev. William N. DeBerry, pastor of St. John's Congregational Church, calling upon the Senate for immediate passage of the bill, and these were unanimously adopted. In opening the meeting Chairman Jones said: "We want to send out a voice that will reach the hearts of America, to show what a brutal ching this lynching is. It is a subject that so many are ignorant of and unconcerned about. We are discussing this afternoon not something that is happening in a foreign land, but what is taking place right here in our own land. The Negro is protesting against lynching because he constitutes the majority of the victims and because as long as it exists not a member of his race is safe. "Despite the fact that those who want lynchings try to blame the act on the crime of rape, only 16 per cent. of those lynched have ever been charged with this crime. All the Negro asks is that he be given a fair trial by due process of law." Speaker Gillett was first introduced, and he was cordially received. He declared that a fundamental principle of Angle-Saxon freedom was the right of trial by jury, but that there has developed in America the horrid practice of lynching which was being protested against by the assemblage he was addressing. He said that not only was lynching an outrage against American principles, but it was accomplished by acts of french cruelty and ferocity which seem utterly inconsistent with civilization. Continuing: the speaker said: "The reign of law is not only civilized, it is profitable. Point to the land where laws are respected and enforced and you see the land where wealth and culture and comfort are most general. You can look south of the United States and see countries which nature has blessed with every element of comfort and wealth and yet the people suffer for the decencies of life. "During our generation as many men have been murdered by lynching mobs as have been executed under legal procedure. And our nation which boasts of leading the van of civilization is the only one where this barbarous savagery flourishes. It is the greatest stair on our national escutcheon. "I have no sympathy with that artificial code of society which will entertain as an equal and honored guest the openly immoral life and vicious habits of creature natures, who boasts, perhaps, of creature and perjury at elections, whose hands are known to be stained, with the blood of barbarians lynchings, and then will shut the door on a man of clean person and pure life, of high-purpose and fine character and civilized intelligence, only because he is black." Race Is Largely to Blame. Congressman Dyer was given an ovation when he arose to begin his address, the great applause and waving of handkerchiefs which greeted him continuing for several minutes. This warm reception did not deter the congressman from telling the audience that colored people themselves are largely to blame for the continuance of lynching. He said: "If you had the right stuff of manhood in you lynching would not exist. You up here in this state and other states where your vote is recognized and where you are respected enough to help those in the Scotland who cannot help themselves. They say there are 2,900 Negroes in this city, but they are not here this afternoon to testify their interest in the legislation that will make lynching impossible. "You people up here, and in other states who have the vote will be to blame if this measure is not enacted. Negroes are being lynched in the South today for so insignificant things as a dispute over a drinking cup. They are lynched without any charge being brought against them. They cannot help themselves for they are denied the opportunity to get about that you have." "There is no way to check this outrageous act except to punish those responsible for it. As present it is impossible to get a jury in a country to testify against the perpetrators so that the anti-lynching bill is the only remedy, for under it a jury from a distant country can be summoned and convictions secured. Furthermore, a county where a mob puts to death a person shall forfeit $10,000 to his family, to the United States if he has no family. Do you think those lynchings down in Texas would have taken place if the county had to pay $10,000 apiece for each of those Negroes? "Hundreds of your people stand back and won't even pay a $1 to join this association when millions of your race are suffering elsewhere. The trouble with the Negroes is that they are Jealous of one another. I say that the Negro who will not do his part to help his fellow men is the worst kind of citizen. Let such men be Bent down to Texas and those down there who are suffering be brought up here. Not Political. "I'm not trying to punish the South, but rather the crime wherever it exists. It's time you were getting together to fight for the Negro. You who have the vote should band together to wipe out this curse. "Every respectable newspaper in the country except those who are influenced by money are for the bill. Charges have been made that this is a political move to solidify the votes of the Negroes for the Republican party. This is fake and villainous stuff. Lynching is the greatest evil that exists today. It is a rattlemake whose head you must cut off. "You must let it be known that you are opposed to Lynching. Let them know at Washington and have this measure passed at this sitting of the Senate. It is on the calendar. All that is required is, to have the roll call. Only a few senators are opposed to it. Run over them, see that the measure is put through." "If what I am saying hurts me, I can't help it. I am satisfied that I am speaking the truth. The Republican party is pledged to the passage of this measure for it has a mandate from the people. The Republicans are in control of the Congress so let them know where you stand. It is up to you." Because of a change in the date of the meeting, Mayor Leonard could not be present, but Attorney Joseph Dearborn was his personal representative and spoke eloquently in favor of the bill. Trop P. Gorum gave vocal numbers, with Mrs. Ruth Johnson Reid at the piano. Rev. Garnett R. Waller offered the invocation and Attorney W. H. Martin introduced James Weklon Johnson as chairman.

August 11 marked the close of the most successful Summer school ever held in the West Virginia Collegiate Institute. All though the term was increased from six to nine weeks, all previous attendance records were broken. About four hundred teachers were present, exceeding the enrollment of the regular school term. The Summer session is an extension of the regular school term. Instruction has been given by the members of the regular faculty in the standard courses of the diplomatic year. Additional courses have been offered, when necessary, by specialists of established reputation. Among the Summer's lecturers were Dr. Guy Montrose Whipple from the University of Michigan; Dr. G. Franklin Bobbitt of the University of Chicago; Dr. Walter Barnes, vice-principal of the Fairmont Normal School; Dr. Henry Neumann of the Ethical Culture Society of Brooklyn, N. Y.; J. Frank Marah, secretary of the State Board of Education; W. W. Saunders, of the Advisory Council; J. Walter Barnes of the State Board of Control; Mrs. George S. Ladley, whose texts on English for primary work and junior high schools have been recently adopted by the State; and Dr. Francis C. Sumner, Daniel L. Ferguson, William F. Savoy and George D. Brock, of the faculty of the West Virginia Collegiate Institute. The faculty spared no effort to promote play and suitable diversion for the Summer school students. The swimming class, organized and promoted by MF. Savoy, was a great success. The ladies' baseball games provided adequate interest. The five tennis courts were crowded whenever the weather permitted. Early morning hikes caused untidy fun and aching feet. The motion picture entertainments on Friday and Saturday nights were well attended. The work at Institute has been in keeping with the program of the State to better the educational facilities and to raise the standard of instruction in West Virginia to the highest level. The Summer school is the logical means to carry out this program without seriously handicapping the regular work. Furthermore, as the Summer school is attended chiefly by teachers or prospective teachers, it is possible to lay emphasis on work meeting their particular needs. The Negro teachers of the State have been responding most eagerly to the call for higher education, better instruction, and greater efficiency. About seventy-five per cent. of them studied at Institute and elsewhere this Summer. Through them the instruction of approximately ten thousand pupils and future citizens of our nation will be influenced. The teachers present adopted resolutions expressing gratitude to the educational authorities of West Virginia, and, to President John W. Davis and faculty.

The petition of surpassing the record of our civilized nation in the matter of crimes of violence was fastened upon the United States at the annual meeting of the American Bar Association, held in San Francisco last week. This judgment was pronounced in the report of the Law Enforcement Committee, of which Judge William B. Swaney of Chattanooga, Tenn., was chairman. Other members of the committee were: Judge Marcus Kavanaugh, Chicago; Governor Charles S. Whitman, New York; Wade H. Ellis, Washington; D. C., and Charles W. Farrum, D. Paul, Mimm. The report said in part: The criminal situation in the United States, so far as crimes of violence are concerned, is worse than that of any other civilized country. Here there is less respect for law. From all available sources of information, we estimate that there were more than 9,200 unlawful homicides last year in this country; that in 1920 there occurred not less than 9,000, and that in no year during the last ten did the number fall below 8,500. "In other words, during the last ten years no less than 85,000 of our citizens have perished by poison, by the pitted or the knife, or by some other unlawful and deadly instrument." The committee's report attributed this violation to the failure of pistols, finding that 90 per cent of firearms were to that worn by dealers, that the pistol served particular purposes in the community and warranted that the manufacture and sale of pistols and ammunition for them be prohibited by law. The laws now in force prohibiting the carrying of firearms were found ineffective, in that they work to the benefit of the criminal rather than the lawpacing citizen. Whether further prohibition of the manufacture and sale of pistols would, in any more effective is questionable, as the lawmakers would not have to struggle in the weapon they wanted a stricter enforcement of the laws already on the statute book in the way of warming the gunman would serve a better purpose. The committee found cause for enragement in the conclusion that in times involving dishonesty, the morals this country are better than in any large country. Considering the numerous cases of extortion, larceny, killing of all kinds reported daily in newspapers, this sounds surprising. These gentlemen are learned in the most presumably know whereof they was the unkited opinion of the committee the means provided in the United States for coping with crimes criminals are today neither adequate sufficient. Specific mention was made failure of the parole and productions to accomplish their purposes, necessary delays in criminal trials, losses in certain jurisdictions, legal for the oppressed who have not to employ counsel, and the segre- of first offenders in jails. discussion of crime in the United would be complete without re- tention to the spirit of mob violence, abuse criminality in entire state communities. While the committee give this the full consideration to importance demanded, it did further legislation should be by the Congress to punish and tackling and mob violence. This equivocal endorsement by busing lawgivers of the nation, the State Senate should be upon April-Lynching Bill without delay. OF PAPER WANTED THE OP PAPER WANTED. And the most difficult programme of publishing business, of the show or any business that carries to theatre notes and demands of a class of the public, is to know about the public events. After the journal is published, or play is produced, it is not hard to know what the public does, and the perfect method has yet reached of ensuring in advance the public will reject with in- terest a graft with avidify the pa- ticipation for its annual monum- nies. It has been published for over two hundred years of running theatre events. and established by the discussion of various topics relating to useful purposes and administration. In the examination suffered on the behalf of public opinion every advance was gained in educational and political progress as the same time waging renewed efforts in every direction. Wrestling and infliction which permitted within or without the state have been held up to public publication and means sought to put an end to the practices complained of. All forms of welfare work honestly prosecuted have been encouraged, as well as cooperative efforts to fight discrimination and ensure the enforcement of law and order. Music and the drama, athletics and many forms of sport have received due attention, while simple space has been given to the doings of the churches especially in their extension into practical community work. And yet there is reason to believe that there remain thousands of possible readers outside of the existing circulation of The Ann; who would welcome a weekly paper which would bring to them exactly the kind of news they want. Now the aim of this article is to find out if possible what kind of paper is really wanted by the people, among whom Fun. Age should find the greater interest of the reader? Do the feminist stories of crime, murder, jealousy and divorce cases, with burglaries and assaults for good measure, with all the gruesome details? Do they want social gossip, with elaborate accounts of weddings and receipts and the costumes worn by the indict? Would friction in the form of a serial story, with a mystery or a murder every issue, add to the interests of the reader? Do the feminine readers want a woman's department apart to record the progress of the sex with cookery, costume and cosmetic hints or the side? Do the boys and girls want a department devoted to their goings in school and in sports? We would be glad to hear from present readers and those who may become readers in the future as to the particular kind of paper they want. Write us a letter of not more than 150 words, telling the kind of news you like to read in The Ack. It may be that the editor will be able to make use of your suggestion and give you the kind of paper you want. "The Whirlpool or Who Killed the King of the Negro Underworld?" is a mystery story published in serial form in some of our papers. Its author is given as Anuirey Bowser and it carries the line"protected by the Kelley Newspaper Feature Service." Protected from what? In an address recently made in behalf of the work of the Society for the Suppression of View in ascending the Blood of immoral literature, produced here and abroad, John S. Sumner, secretary of the society, referred to Rene Maran's "Batimala" as coming under this head. This is the story of native African life in a French colony, which was awarded the Goncourt prize as being the most important work by a French author during the year. We wonder if Mr. Sumner has read the book. The Columbia Light expressed but scant sympathy for the troubles of Joseph Tolbert, the white member of the Republican National Committee from South Carolina, whose confirmation as United States marshal has been held up on charges preferred in the Senate. It said: Mr. Tolbert may have saved himself and faction but he has debauched the Negroes to political quietude. Let the Senate turn him down and take a new start with stronger and broader men, or keep the offices in the hands of honest and broad minded Democrats. No fishman, who only sees self and family, is able to lead or even build up any decent faction or party. Let the Tolbert faction have a rest. This emphasizes the necessity for the choice of outstanding man of strong character in both races, to resolve the cause of Republicanism in the South. The town of St. Thomas in the Virgin Islands is in the throes of a movement to replace the Danish names of the streets with translations or other substitutes, that will denote the change of nationality. The chairman of the committee having this matter in charge, in a letter published in the St. Thomas Times, referring to some of the changes proposed, said: They will tell us about Governor Berg, Governor Garde, the Redemptionist Father, I named Doler and many priests for they know that, to reign a Sovereign in the hearts of men is more to be desired than to rule over their lives and fortunes. Surely we want to see some of the great American names on our streets, but here and there when we have to new-name a street or to replace one of the people's own street names with some other, let us remember: least a few of those men and women who lived and worked here, years upon years, patiently guiding or teaching or healing, forever if we do not set them a memorial. The great names of America will move and more become a guiding part of our lives, and they will be THE great names for our children. But the little names of the great hearts of this island are now in our hands in he hold knight for our children and their children to come—or to be held in the surge of spaces. Among the prominent future members of American origins are to be noted Buster Hill street, Renewell, Lincoln, Winston Wilson, Mead Twain and Buster Washington airlines. This article also many sold of the enthusiastic pioneer of the late President Buster Hill who pursued him that he would go on to define the airline world. Washington One can discuss briefly the African collisions between the Mr. Garvey and his followers, in respectable so that enthusiasm might be increased it is related to a great question of world politics, the question of the spring of Africa for native Africans. But so much state of acquaintance can be maintained in discussing, the "court communities" held at Liberty Hall last week at which time a large number of titles were commenced, and demonstrations were presented to "Higher Supreme Highness." We read that "dundoms" and "heighthoops" and other orders were conferred upon a number of men. There were created "His Grace, the Duke of Uganda," "His Grace, the Duke of the Niger," Commanders of the Order of the Nile," and "Commanders of the Order of Ethiopia." We also read that deputies and delegates in evening dress were presented to "His Supreme Highness, the President," Mr. Garvey, and each was required to kneel. If some artificial humorist were to write a burlesque depicting life in some actual or mythical Negro country and showing what is commonly spoken of as the Negro's "childish vanity, love of show and high-sounding emptiness," he could hardly produce anything more absurd than what is reported to have actually taken place at this Garvey court ceremony; and if such a writer did produce such a story, it is likely that all of the thoughtful covert people in the country who read it would become indignant. But here is the thing actually happening. If the Garveyites were actually in possession of a country and had established a government and were handing out dukedoms and knighthoods, it would be bad enough, but there would be some substance behind the title. The dukes and knights would probably constitute a parliament or congress that legislated for the nation. But to be creating dukes and duchesses and lords and ladies in Harlem, N. Y., U. S. A., is the apotheosis of the ridiculous. And it brings up the question, what sort of a government does Mr. Garvey propose to establish in Africa? Seemingly there is no intention of establishing a democracy or a republican form of government. It looks as though his aim is to establish a government based upon hereditary class distinctions, the very thing that most of the enlightened peoples have abolished or are seeking to discard. The report of this ceremony in the New York "World" stated that this court reception is held each year at the annual convention of the U. N. I. A., to remind the Negro race of what are considered the past glories of Ethiopia and the future possibilities of Africa. As regrettable as it might be, we are nevertheless faced with the fact that past glories of Ethiopia, however great they may have been, will not fit into the future possibilities of Africa. BAR ASSOCIATION ON ANTI-LYNCHING LEGISLATION. The Committee on Law Enforcement appointed by the American Bar Association to investigate crime in the United States and recommend remedies held hearings last Spring in the cities of Washington, Chicago and New York. The committee consisted of Mr. W. B. Swaney of Chattanooga, Tenn.; chairman; ex-Governor Charles S. Whitman of New York; Mr. Wade H. Ells of Washington, former Assistant to the United States Attorney General; Judge Marcus Kavanagh of Chicago, and Mr. Charles W. Farnham of St. Paul. The writer was invited by the Committee to appear before it and present facts regarding lynching in the United States. He went to Washington for that purpose and also appeared before the Committee at Chicago and urged that it present to the Bar Association a recommendation calling for Federal anti-lynching legislation. On the 10th of this month the Committee on Law Enforcement presented to the American Bar Association, at its annual meeting at San Francisco, its report. The sixth recommendation in the report read as follows: "We find that further legislation should be enacted by the Congress to punish and prevent lynching and mob violence." The recommendation quoted above gives an endorsement to the Anti-Lynching Bill by the most influential group of lawyers in the United States. The American Bar Association includes in its membership the greatest lawyers and jurists in the country—such men as William H. Taft, Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court; Charles Evans Hughes, Secretary of State; Elihu Root, Moorfield Story, and others. This action, together with the endorsements that have already been given to the Anti-Lynching Bill, makes the legal opinion of the country overwhelmingly in support of the constitutionality of the measure and removes all excuses on the point of unconstitutionality which individual Senators have advanced as a reason for delay in passing the measure. The American Bar Association cannot be charged with any political interests in the matter, nor would the men composing it jeopardize their legal reputations by recommending that Congress do something which it had no legal authority to do. A DISCOURAGING DOCTRINE: We read in the "Southwestern Christian Advocate" a sermon by the Rev. James L. Gordon, D. D., entitled "Ten Facts About Heaven." Nine of these "facts" are in general accord with the orthodox exegesis of the Revelation regarding the celestial city. However, the third "fact" is, we fear, slightly heredical. Stating this "fact," Dr. Gordon says: "Third: The working day will be twenty-four hours long in Heaven." This is very discouraging news to those who have cheerfully endured and toiled in this world. Firm in the teaching that Heaven would provide them with an eternal and blessful rest. The New Testament idea of heaven is service, not rest. "They serve Him Amy and night in His temple." There Spurgeon will preach grander terrises. Edison will make greater discoveries. Secrates will glisten softer domea. Michael Angelo will plan venera ochrodrain. Sunny will sing a more distressing song. Raphael will portray a diviner transformation. Dante will dream to despair domea and Gatsby will play with new external worlds. These Maccari will turn our eternal harbours and there, Bardonian will rivel in the odyssey of an eternal vision. The panel which Dr. Gordon brings to support his statement has the compelling day will be accompanied by images to illustrate Michael Angelo gave many explanations. That is all right for Spurgeon and Kidner and Borgate and Martin August, at al, but what about the man who can better punch, invent, philosophize, sing, contend, nor paint? What about the man whose work in this world was the kind which required muscle and perspiration. Will he have to follow the rule as applied to the great thinkers and artists and do what he best knew how to do on this earth, or will he need to learn to do something entirely different? However, in our opinion, no matter how pleasant and agreeable the job, we believe that twenty-four hours a day at it would be sure to make it monotonous and distasteful. It would appear hypercritical to print out that Dante is unfortunate in the job which is assigned to him, that of descending to deeper depths, Descending to deeper depths for Dante meant going down into hell. Twenty-four hours a day at this task would leave practically no time to be spent in Heaven. We think Dr. Gordon's doctrine is one that should not be too much emphasized. BEN. WADSWORTH'S POSITION, In a letter addressed to the Editor of the Ack Senator Wadsworth of New York family defines his attitude in respect to the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. He says that he has grave doubts about the constitutionality of the measure and that he does not want to vote for a bill that he believes to be unconstitutional. He further adds: The Congress has gotten into the very bad habit, in recent years, of def- ferentially passing bills which a large share of the membership believe to be unconstitutional and relying upon the Supreme Court to declare them null and vow. It excites among the ignorant hostility toward the Sup- reme Court and that transiently vital feature of our Constitution which establishes the courts as the guardians of the Constitution and the rights of the States and of individuals. As Mr. Wadsworth admits that he is not a lawyer and is therefore more than willing to listen to arguments concerning the constitutionality of the bill it does not appear that he has very firm ground for his opposition. The most convincing argument for passage of the bill is afforded in the report of the Senate Judiciary Committee commending its passage. Ample justification for this legislation is found in the broad powers of the Constitution guaranteeing the protection of the life and property of the citizen of the various States. Further warrant for such legislation is afforded in the report of the Law Enforcement Committee of the American War Association, which recommended that further legislation should be enacted by the Congress to amend the present law. Involver Wadsworth will find, if he looks into the legal aspect of the matter, that the weight of the legal sentiment of the country is in favor of Federal action against the mish. While we may request the making in which Mr. Wadsworth defines his position, we trust that further study of the question may cause him to change it and allly himself with the supporters of the bill. Senator Frelinghuysen of New Jersey, who is one of the staunch friends of the measure, writes to the Editor of Tire Age as follows: I am doing all I can in behalf of the Dear Art-Air-Lynching Bill have assisted in having it reported and am doing my best to have it cloud up. It is impossible to do so, however while the tariff bill is under discussion. Let us hope that Senator Wadsworth may yet be found on the same side of the bill as the Senator from New Jersey. A TRULY BRITISH WELCOME Judging by the theatrical notes in Sunday Illustrated, a London publication, the English writers are feeling climax as had over "The Negro invasion" as they did a short time ago, over what they called the American invasion of the stage. Under the heading of "Shuffle Along," in the issue of July 30, appeared this typically British greeting: We seem to be in for a regular tigger invasion with Mr. Culkin's promise to bring over "Shuffle Along"—the Negro play that has already run for a year in New York and boasts a company of skipped color performers. Then there is another "tigger in the woodpile"—Mr. Gilpin, the darkest "star" of "The Emperor Jones" who is already singing. What with ragtime and com songs, and the jazz hands and all the other nigger-things that we have got already, the real article should not be much of a change. When a London penn aliner sets out to be insulting along the color line he naturally falls into the class of Maywood's Weekly, and the Iconologist of Texas, the Caucasian of South Carolina and other productions of the Southern backwoods. The Negro invasion of the London stage must have met with a large measure of popular success to invoke these bitter words from the Sunday Illustrated writer. We understand that "Vondon," which was presented here under the title of "Tebou," scored an artistic success in London with Mrs. Patrick Campbell in the role of leading woman, and the colored cast of characters which appeared in New York. This probably tended to aggravate the feelings of the promoter and sit up his bible to the bitter depiction. "Oh what, old star?" SHOT IN THE THEATRE. The Billboard, which claims the largest circulation of any theatrical paper in the world, published the following glimpse of elaboration in his book of choreography. Put it where it belongs, on the white crests and moral lippers that promoted and staged the offerings. The Negro artists increased extensively and vigorously over the fifty material; but vainly. Their objects were overkill and their plausible disregarded. It was only when they realized that if they were to make Broadway at all they would have to do as they agree that they are compromised with their inner instincts and subversed. Do not blame the colored actors. Do not blame the colored actresses. Blame the white degenerates who are solely responsible. In view of the fact that many of the theatrical critics of the daily press have criticised the objectionable features of the colored shows on Broadway, it is well to have the responsibility placed where it belongs. The authority of the Billboard to speak by the book in theatrical matters is unquestionable. When it places the blame for suggestive and prudent appeals to the public taste on the producers it undoubtedly states the facts of the case. But why should these producers pander to the prudent and immoral appetites of the public unless they believe that their audiences demand and relish such overripe fruit? The producers of reartical shows are in the business for money making purposes, if not entirely. They would produce "Uncle Tom's Cabin" or "Main Street," with a life in scene of course. If either of them drew to full houses. Either or only these producers calculate that lewd, insugentious by word or action please the public, hence their insistence that the actors of such their art to draw the crowd. The artists are the main sources of the material of the art to enter into the stage and to display it in the stage premises; they may either put the parts as-signed them or give their hopes for a stage career. The ultimate responsibility for immersion on the stage is limited, like with the police. The majority of the particular shows may believe that patron pays and there may be a sufficient number of the seekers of the sort of staff to ensure an ophthalmic success. But in the long run the producers will find that their policy of indecentity is not pay. The scoring and blistering denunciation by the *Pollard* while it takes the blide off the producers applies with equal force to the president mindful public that makes such pampering profitable. In entering the custom of what political action shall be given by the colored voters of Virginia this Fall, the Richie and Plant said. The anti-Kluger element has control of the machines of the port and those men who do not are with them must work the plank. They are in the fight for patronage and before the campaign is over, they will have to find or may be accomplished the task by the colored two fast-facts of the "hillbillies" and they are a fine job all time all to the treasures with the Ollies while white Republicans and the colored Republicans in the office waiting the opening of the treasures. We shall not antitheocracy the conference. Can you not object that those will be sent to Congress in interviews by the Democrats are friendly to our interest it may not be well to antitheocracy. The significance of the suggestion that friendly Democratic candidates should be billed by other prominent will be that upon the who holds with President Harding in the division of the Negro vote. The State of Zion, the official terms of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, recently distanced the Troubles of a Bishop in an article running into four columns. It emphasized the facts that the bishop is responsible first to God and that a bishop must be as well as good. It continued: By his very position in the hiep of the Mythodict Church is assured to be a leader and that leadership must reach beyond the bounds of mere pristine dignity. He must be a moral, a man of affairs, of sanity in matters of race, uplift of courage in matters of the national relation of our social group, and of insisted determination and problematical aggressiveness for all that is best for his own people no less than for that which is best for all the people. It is well that the church papers should discuss the questions essential to the life's price, so time the debates may be pulled right in choosing candidates for this office. A TALE WITH HEAD OF NEW ORGANISM SCHOOL Ename of New York High An- Following is an account of an proceeding, in which questions Marris to an Age representation poke the matter under serious con- tention before I decided to accept it. I had to determine for serious question—a question science wherein would enter my toward the duties of a super- conciety intent aim destro- forming the duty of a point. people not his own, for a people whom his race field preoccupa- whom he had no meaning, would understand him at begin- reast as facts as he would perma- urest them. "I weighed the question," he said, and the possible consequence was my own future. I already accepted the position, respecting least being prepared to do it, caution, a bigger lover to my race and to be regarded by the Negro people as "a Negro man I made up my mind to do it and to do it with an ability I can bring to the task on a problem that I am working out and from which I hope to get good results. I am acquainted with the principals and teachers where work I am to receive in these coed schools." "But I shall be after I have indulged client time to study their work. I going to expect suggestions, per- provement of my position of work from the principal and teacher in cooperation and help, and all who are interested in professional work. I want to see the teacher get the education that he uses, no matter what the waste of time and effort he puts forth or does an education will be worth it. I want to see the teacher for clinical help in the need affairs of the colored people, which need for a匀iness education, colored boys and girls of equal proportion to meet the demand. If there are those who can do well in his professions they should get a professional training. "Hut," said Prof. Harris, commenting in his thoughtful, serious way of preening a subject, "it is our duty with the new openings colored people have for their own among professions and business lines as things are today, the industrial field is not well before the field, of encajer for a greater number of colored children and that education that hits them for industrial pursuits is the education that we can use. If I can get that cooperation and help which my program of work in the colored schools calls for, I shall be greatly encouraged to ask for the things that the progress made guarantee me to ask of the school board for the schools, I shall continue to speak for the strength that organization cooperation and support of our own people will be maintained like other institutions, and support like other institutions, until it is prepared to fill among them the position of business or dealer one to see them out of a good place to feel in industrial and domestic pursuits.

White Benny Ponteau, former assistant lightweight champion of the world, was the winner of a hard fought twelve round bout at the 15th Army against Marty Manderville of Newark, on Friday night, August 11. Ponteau, who has not been doing so well signs he became a professional fighter, put up the best fight of his career, and was in super condition. Manderville started things off by knocking Ponteau down twice in the first round. In the second round he almost knocked the New York fighter out with a blow to the chin, but this only seemed to help Ponteau get started, for from then on he took the lead and carried the fight in almost every round, however, Manderville tried for a knockout, but the superior skill of his opponent saved him. The judges disagreed over the winner, and the referee, Eddie Pollack, gave the bout to Ponteau, which met with the approval of the majority of the fans. Ponteau weighed 135 pounds and his opponent 134.5 pounds. The recent session of the National Association of Negro Muddlers at Columbus, Ohio, has been referred to as the most hardious ever held. This is good, if true. As a well-wisher of the organization, with every desire to see it prosper and develop along sane and healthful lines, it is always a pleasure to be able to chronicle in this column statements that show such development. But there are some circumstances attending this last session that are not clear to my mind. In the first place, according to information coming to me, a number of the most enthusiastic and capable men and women who were holding positions as either officers or members of boards have been dropped. Some were dropped last year, others, this year. That these persons were deeply interested in the growth and development of the association is the impression I have had for several years, and this impression was gained both from personal contact with the individual and form a knowledge of their activities in behalf of the body. The semi-final bout between Panama Billy Walker and Dan Stewart, both of the 369th, was one of the roughest fights ever staged at this army. Both fighters were wrestling, using their elbows, and committing other fouls, but the referee overlooked them until the seventh round, when Walker lost his head completely and bit his opponent on the arm. As the imprint of his teeth there, he could never look there and awarded the bout to Stewart on a foul. The weight of both fighters in this bout was announced as 135 pounds. It is possible, of course, that these changes were but the natural mutations of a definite political policy, though there has been no rule established that I know of providing for such rotation. And another thin gthat causes some slight wonder is that those who have been dropped or superseded have, as a rule, seemed to lose active interest in the association—that is, to the extent of attending the succeeding sessions. Danny Bailey, who has been the announcer at this armory for the past few months, lost a hard six round fight to Jerry Martin of the 162nd Regiment. Bailey, who had not fought for nearly a year, picked two tough an opponent for his first bout in an attempt to come back. Martin is a coming fighter, and outpointed his opponent by a wide margin. Both fighters weighed 124 pounds in this bout. In the other preliminary bout, Kid Bennett won a close decision over Charlie Myers of the 9th Coast Defense. Bennett could have scored a knockout had he been more aggressive, but he never took the lead, and was superior to his opponent only because he could hit the harder. Some of these changes are more significant than others. For instance, the vice-president's mantle has been shifted from the shoulders of Mrs. Nora Douglas Holt of Chicago to those of J. Weasley Jones, also of the Windy City. This change, perhaps, has no special meaning. Mrs. Holt has suffered deep bereavement during the past year and personal correspondence I have had with her causes me to know that she was desirous of securing a great release as possible from demands of public or semi-public duties. So it may have been the granting of her personal desire. Then again it may have been a development of logical politics wherein factions have arisen, creating elements that do not adjust harmoniously with each other. Billy Roche, who seems to have forgotten his threat of last week, not to be concerned in mixed bouts, was the referee of the semi-final bout. Sergeant Dennis of the 369th was the referee in the preliminaries. Another significant change was the election of Clarence Cameron White of Boston as president to succeed Henry L. Grant of Washington, who has held that position since the National Association was organized. There has been some contention as to who was responsible for the organization of the association, Grant or White. Both were credited by their friends with having first promulgated the idea, and they have been. I believe, some rather lengthy explanations published concerning the matter, AT LAFAYETTE THEATRE Moss and Frye heads an excellent vaudeville bill at the Lafayette Theatre this week. The act of these two comedians is different from any other act in vaudeville and drew the largest applause of any on the bill. They are advertised to appear in a Broadway musical comedy this fall, but their act seems much more fitting on a vaudeville bill than in any other type of show. Nevertheless, Harlemites, with them all the success in their new venture, Jones and Jones, who have been with "Strut Miss Lizzie," also received an enthusiastic welcome. Other acts on the bill were Joe Sheftel's Revue Malinda and Co. Paula, and The Eight Blue Devils. Two years ago, at the session held in New York, certain elements insisted that Mr. White's claim should be recognized and forced him to be a candidate for the presidency. This movement, whether well-intentioned or not, was not sufficiently well-organized to be carried to success. Grant won by a narrow margin and was continued as president. Whether or not this opposition reached any particular development at Nashville in 1921 I cannot say, other than that the old officers were all reelected. But 1922 brings a new tale, for Grant is deposed and Clarence Cameron White is at last elevated to the presidency. Of the original list of officers, Alice Carter Simmons, secretary, is the only one reelected. And in connection with Miss Simmons' reelection comes another curious development. Deacon Johnson of New York had been treasurer of the N. A. N. M. concurrently with Grant's tenure as president. But an the latter is deposed, so is Mr. Johnson. The office of treasurer is combined with that of secretary, and Miss Simmons is elected to hold both offices. On Monday, August 21, Charles Gilpin will head another vaudale bill at this theatre. He will be seen in an act called "Uncle Remus at the Races," which will also be his first appearance at this theatre in five years. It is said that many of his white amateurs who saw him in "Abraham Lincoln" and "The Emperor Jones" will come to Harlem to see his performance next week, so Harlemites are urged to make reservations for this show in advance. On the bill with him will be several other well known acts, including little Florence Parham, who will give an impersonation of Nora Bayes, and will sing some of the songs she made famous. Then comes the most curious development of all, and the most intriguing. A new office is created, that of executive secretary, and ex-President Grant is elected to this new position. This houses speculation and in some minds, even suspicion. For those familiar with ordinary business processes the duties of an executive secretary practically embrace the entire administrative functions of a proposition. A former official, speaking of this change, said: "I don't know what it means, but I do know that if I wanted to retain control of an organization I'd rather be executive secretary than president." THE LINCOLN THEATRE Few male stars in motion pictures have been so consistently successful as has Dustin Farrell. Like his brother, William, he captures them and he holds them. Dustin is peculiarly fitted by a matte for the portrayal of an early, restrained actress by a positive talent and stage training crossing success in such roles. Thursday night at the Lincoln Theatre, he made another positive hit in his latest Fox picture, "Strange Idols," before an audience that filled the house to capacity. This same individual observed that in combining the offices secretary and treasurer, and then creating an executive secretorship, if the persons holding these offices were sympathetic in entire harmony, agreeing to work together, it would be possible to create a practical dictatorship over any organization, relying the efforts of any officials who might oppose them. There have been several propositions under consideration by M. A. N. M., some of which have been carried to a final agreement and others of which remain in a fluid condition. At the meeting in Chicago it was enthusiastically and unanimously voted to Miss Marian Anderson of Philadelphia, the gifted young girl, a beneficiary of the scholarship fund which was to be held. In the several years since that time the fund has unanimously assumed some tangible proportion, but if any benefit extended to Miss Anderson it has been kept entirely "Strange Idols," is a serious powerful drama the intensity of which is lightened by some lively acents in a New York cabaret. It transports the spectators from the night life of Broadway to the depths of the Northwestern forest where the axe and the saw of the lumberman are the chief music heard. From the primitive forest to Broadway the transition again is made; and roughhoused cabarets dance the roaring sturdy rich young lumbermen in a romance culminating in the mournage of a pair temperamentally unattended to be mates. The sequel of this movie is heart-gripping in the extreme—will be calculated to stir emotion in the poor hand-hold" of picture follower. makes the one question that has aroused more controversy than any other has been the project of an off-agazine. This was attempted at first by Grant and White, a conservative endorsement of the project by the executive com- of the organization. White's association with the project shortened. Mr. Grant continued on his own hook, but the seal seemed to have hard sledding. Its appearances were alluded of no particular distinction. Some effort was made to have another magazine, published by Mrs. Holt, substituted for Grant's magazine, but effective. Surprise it now to the end that possibly since he is part of the burden of the presidency, Mr. Grant as executive vice, with the cooperation of Miss Simmons as secretary, may make the effort to revive The Negro Mu- Hello Bill!

MATINER DAILY Independent Episcopalians Give Reasons for Seceding (continued from First Day commission referred to as the Episcopal Church) The church is every detail that of the Episcopal Church, and the prayer hook and armature the same. The First Race Bidig To Right Rev. George Alexander Metzle is the first bishop and organist. He was formerly an arabesque in the Episcopal Church and organised many congregations in Arlansas, Ohio and Massachusetts. Sometimes last year he was consecrated a bishop, his episcopal concession being derived from the Eastern Orthodox Church in direct time from St. Peter, first bishop of Antioch in Syria, and subsequently first bishop of Rome in Italy. While this movement is only about a year old, there are at present congregations in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Canada and Cuba. Besides the bishop there are at other clergymen. The Second General. Synod of this Independent Church will convene on Wednesday, September 6, at the Cath- hedral Chapel of the Good Shepherd in New York City, closing on Sunday, September 10. Time for Independence. Bishop McGuire, who indulging in an undue criticism of, nor antagonism in the Episcopal Church, in which he was born, and which he served for a quarter of a century, is of the firm belief that the time has come for Negro Episcopalians to "set up" for themselves. The Rev. George P. Bragg, D. D. the Internet leader among colored Episcopals describes their situation accurately in the following paragraph taken from his paper, the Church Advocate for the present month, and does it to graphically that comment is unnecessary. "Although we are in the Episcopal Church we are identified with every interest of the people of our group. Our accessions must come from members of the race connected with and a part of this racial life. At present we are a mere appendage, in the sight of our brethren, to the "white man's church." We are alienated from racial life. We have no leaders of our own who can share with the leaders of other racial groups in the concerns which are ours in common. The growth of the work must be from within. Homes for the aged and orphanage we need as well as other agencies indispensably connected with our racial life. With all of the various racial institutions, literary and otherwise, in each province we sustain vital interest. We need the racial leadership to touch these institutions, and, incidentally, make known the Episcopal Church. From most of the boards and agencies of our Church our people are practically excluded. We are not going to push them. But we do need an Episcopal leader of our own group who can be us every thing the white bishop is among the white people. We need such a leader to hold "conferences" and institute agencies which racial life demand; we need such to intram and inspire our own people, and also to touch large bodies of our group outside of the church that cannot be pushed by any others. We need an Episcopal leader in every province who knows how to set himself to the task of leading our missionary congregations into self-support and self-respect, and with this latter task alone Ethics Demby and Delaney have more than they can well accomplish." [Bibbys Demby and Delaney are the "indigans" referred to in second paragraph of this article]. NEWS OF THE CHURCHES SUNDAY The weather Sunday, August 13, was of an unusual nature. It was all that could be needed for church attendance. A larger congregation was present at the 11 o'clock service. As usual, the choir traded inspiring music. This Sabbath was not apart for the administering of the Holy Communion. The 11 o'clock sermon was preached by Dr. J. E. K. Aggrrey, Dr. Aggrrey used in his text, *Palm 55.6: "Give ear to the prayer, O God! and hear my supplication." The latter part of the text read "I will have wings like a dove, then would fly away and be at rest." Dr. Aggrrey and that as he walked the streets of the cities and behold the faces of our people he could read the deep desire for cessation from the trials, disappointments and adversities of this life. The speaker stated that the author of the words of the text was David. He spoke of David's accomplishments. He declared that David was at one time king. He was also both rich and highly educated. As a warrior, he warned that David was a victorious conqueror. Notwithstanding these accomplishments and possessions, there came times in his life when troubles so brushed him on his life's pathway until he was forced to explain "Oh that I had wings like a dove that I might fly away and be at rest." He pointed out that instruct us at these times came to David, with all of his achievements and accomplishments we need not despair because of the fact that trouble overtakes us. The troubles which causes us at times to wish for wings with which we might fly away he represented in various forms. The power of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, he offered as an invitation, for all of our troubles, disgracefulness and adversity, and declared that by it we who trust in Him will be able ultimately to triumph. It was indeed in including as well as an instructive motive and was enjoyed by everyone now understanding the four High Dr. Brown the pastor, was many attending the Council of the Board of Bishops, Chattinam, Tenn. A second brunet migration was present. At the time of the session three persons were received into the church. A 2 clock the reply Sunday, which was opened. Owing to the sense of the Sunday service, Mrs Desverney, Rev. A. B. Bishops, paved the plains. Adjourned to the teachers and assembled there was a worship there was a worship in sorry to land. Dr. Rev. George A. M (Ouir) At half-part three o'clock Holy Communion was administered. Rev. A. E. Hendricks officiated during this service. At eight o'clock the sermon was prescheduled by Rev. D. R. Dinkins. The sick: Rochelle Smith, Bellevue Hospital; Samuel Quar, Metropolitan Hospital; Isaac Hangshion, 48 West 136th street; G. Booker, 100 West 139th street; Marietta Kirtley, 155 West 143rd street; Cornelius Neals, Harlem Hospital; G. H. Humphrey, 856 Morris avenue. First Romanel Church. The services Sunday at the First Emmanuel Church were well attended. Pastor Bolden at the 11 o'clock service preached from Acts 3:16 "And His name through faith in His name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yes, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all." Subject "There is power and eternal life in the name of the Lord, Jesus Christ." Pastor Bolden said that names originally signified character; but that during the latter years and modern times people have names without any thought of their meaning. Among the people of African descent in this country nicknames are of common approbrium. There is a great need today for parents, and guardians to give, consideration and thought in the naming of children, and discourage the distasteful and injurious habit of nick names. Jesus Christ, our Lord, the Emmanuel, told His disciples before He left them that if they should ask anything of the Father in His name it would be granted. The thought and belief by Peter and John as regards this promise found their request granted in behalf of the invalid man at the beautiful gate. When asked them for alms they said unto them "silver and gold have I none but such as I have. I give unto them such the name of Jesus Christ of Narneth, rise up and walk." And he took him by the right hand and lifted him up, and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength. And he leaping up stood. And waited, and entered with them into the temple, walking and leaping and praising God; And all the people sat him walking and praising Book. The choir rendered the anthem "Wors of the Lord." Miss Green, Mrs. Townsend and Ernest Ballou, soloist. One person joined the church in this service. The Sunday-school held a very interesting session. Assistant Superintendent Coleman conducted the opening exercise, and the lesson review. The store of the lesson was vividly told by Kenneth Bough. Pastor Bolden also spoke in an encouraging way to the children. The meeting of the Bahai Association was conducted by Mrs. Copeland. At the 8 o'clock service, the sermon was preached by Rev. Albert Mansion of Salem M. E. Church from St. Matthew 14:22 "And straightway Jesus constrained his disciples, to get into a ship and to go before him unto the other side white he sent the multitudes away." The sermon was well received by the congregation. Excellent music was furnished by the choir. was dinner was served during the day by members of the Literary Society. Sunday, August 20, Holy Communion will be served at both services; and the young men of the S. M. and L. Club will furnish the program at the meeting of the Literary Society at 4:30 The Rainbow Circle held a splendid meeting on last Thursday night. Prayer was offered by Mrs. Bessie Robinson. Reading from "Hidden Words" by Miss J. Silvester: Reading "The unveiling of the divine plan." by Mrs. Bessie Scott. Addresses by Rev. Bolden and Dr. Clark. Refreshments were served at the close of the meeting. The anniversary of the church will be September 10 to 15. Elaborate programs have been arranged for each evening by the different auxiliaries of the church. Burial Memorial: Church Rush Memorial Church The congregation was large and responsive at Rush Memorial Church on East Sunday. In the morning Rev. Glover used as his text Micah 7:4, quoted "Why the church has lived." These present were benefited spiritually and intellectually. Rev. M. L. Hervieu, at Honourment, L. L. preached an interesting Vesion to the Daughters of Conference from At 8 o'clock, Rev. Chan J. Albertson delivered an instruction service, subject "From Prison to the Public." The burden of the prison was that parents should move their children from the prison.

In the absence of Dr. Brown pastor of First Church, Brooklyn, Mr. McKay preached at the Shrine, and evening services. Dr. Brown was in attendance at the Conventional Council of the A. M. K. R. Xin Church, held at Cattontangton, Tenn., and reached the church just before services were over. The pastor had planned to be present all day but the railroad strike interfered with his previous arrangements. The representatives at the General Sunday-school Convention held at Asheville N. C., made a report of the observations of the convention at the Sunday-school session. The Sunday-school outing held at Pattam Bay Park was an enjoyable occasion. Eugene Jackson, formerly of this city, now of Virginia, was a visitor at the Sunday-school Subday. "Livingstone Day" will be observed at the church Sunday, August 27, at 3 p.m.; the program will be presented by the alumni and students of Livingstone College under auspices of the W. H. and F. M. Society. Dalian Street Street A Branch Bridge Street Church, Brooklyn. Bridge Street Church was thoroughly alive all day Sunday. At the morning service the pastor, Rev. E. W. was the pastor, used as a text, Romans 12:2-“And be not conformed to the romans; but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect will of God.” The pastor in his sermon sounded the spiritual keynote of the day and the congregation was equally responsive. At the communion service in the afternoon the Rev. W. H. Lacey, of Lynn, Mass, filled the pulpit in place of the Rev. W. C. Brown of Fleet Street A. M. E. Zion Church, who was detained out of town.

WITH OUR GIRLS DEAREST GIRLS: DEAREST GIRLS: It has been a long, long time since I have written. I try to find something interesting to write. Not as seems, as though everything goes away. From me, My letter this week will just tell me of messages. "Dolly," I ask, grieving myself away, you say, why? "I said 'Dolly' and I'm 'Dimplem.' 'Blossoms.' I have heard something good about you and 'Dimplem.' I shall tell what it is real soon. Yes, 'Buiter.' I enjoyed 'Gay' covey; very much 'Kindness.' please let me know how my imagination turned out. Am I right again? I will have to close this letter because I am almost lost. I am ashamed of myself for neglecting the column but I am going to try to do better, "Chatterbox," please keep your promise about the pictures. I'm not related to Job. I can't tell of the enjoyable times the "Mystery Girls" have had, because we aren't meeting at present, "Lotus Blossom," we looked all over for you at Columbia Park. Where did you go? "Pit-a-Fat," did you attend the meeting at the Urban League last Wednesday? If so, I know you now. "Wilheimina" I am or rather was more than glad to hear from you. I will close and make room for the others. BROWNIE Newark, N. J. .....BROWNIE. DEAR GIRLS: DEAR GIRLS I had "Kid Palmer" and "Twinkletoes" as my guests over the weekend. My didn't have a good time! We were well entertained by "Twinkletoes." She is some dancer, and her costumes were lovely. So you are in love with Earl, "Kid palmer." Don't you dare vamp my boyfriend. Everytime I think of you can taste those hand-picked strawberries. "Brownie," could the mother meeting be held in Plainfield? I promised all the girls a lovely time. Say, girls, do any of you need a nurse girl? If so, just drop "Kid Palmer" a line. She fell in love with "Mom Smoke's" youngest offspring and when it came to dressing a baby, she handles a wicked safety-pin. "Ataranta," how is "Sleeping Sickness" these days? Some disease, isn't he? Love to all the girls Plainfield, N. J. "RED." DEAR GIRLS: I know that he has been quite some time since I have written to the column and as I can't offer any good excuse I can only promise to do better in the future. "Ethel" is ashamed of my self, however. "I'll write a letter you like; you also. "Snookums." "Kid Palmer." I must say you alice a mean cake. BETWEEN DARK AND DAWN The night folks held a carnival on the lawn last night under the watching eyes of the moon. The fairies caught the dew- drops and hung them on the grass and high on the bushes the moon light found them and lit them up with a pale white light to illuminate the party. Fireless threaded their way through the weeds and, trees to guide the revelers who had lost their way. solemity from a The carnival lasted until the first night of morning blew his trumpet. The night people scampered away to their homes. The fairies hid themselves in the hearts of the flowers while the fire-flies creep on the underside of the golden rod leaves to sleep. On the edge of a green pool in the swamp the bull frogs moulded drizzly when the sun peeping over the hills on his journey with the clay as the cold jack of lanterns and the flesh them with his sun-crusts, making them helpless as they had been the mighty beetle into myriads of sparkling colors to guide the footsteps of the morning Plainfield, N. L. DEAR GIRLS: "If you can't give a good excuse, don't give any at all," is a maxim I believe in, therefore I am not saying why I haven't written in the column. But nevertheless the truant has returned. One of the reasons bringing me back is the determination on the part of the "Wonder Girls" to keep the column, which Mr. Moore tells us he will be forced to cut out if more letters are not received, and you know girls we couldn't get along with the column. The wonderful girls are progressing well for and we have oh my plans for the future. We recently held our birthday party, and say, didn't we have fun. Many, many of you don't know who I am, nor from whence I came, and no wonder, considering that I haven't written (or about a year, "Tis a shame to acknowledge it) but I hope that we will become thoroughly acquainted within Visitors for the week Included Misses Myrtie and Besie Scarlett, Atlanta, Ga.; Miss Alma Ricks, Franklin, Va.; Miss Rebecca Murphy, Baltimore, Md.; Miss Carolyn Dublin, Brooklyn, N.

As I am practically a new member, my letter should not be so long, in fact I have far exceeded my bounds, so I'll have to stop at once. With very best wishes to all who remember me and to all who don't I am. Sincerely. HELLO DEAR GIRLS: HELLO. DEAR YOU! How are you all? Well. I know if you are all like me this morning, you are feeling, like me much ashamed. Did Mr. Moore, your kind editor, write to any of you all? I mean about keeping up the column. Well, girls. I am now on vacation from school, and had been planning ever since I had been home to write but failed to do so, and it is almost time for me to go back and I am compelled to write "Willhelm," we are all very anxious, to hear about your child. So listen, dear, get a little more of you, and don't keep us waiting so long-ha ha! Listen, girls, do you know anything about "Bob?" "Bob," if you have stopped writing to the column please start again. "Kid Palmer," I agree with you, we would feel very bad if our kind and patient editor would deprive us of our little space. So let us try and keep it up. "Kid Palmer," you my take this for a joke, but I stayed away so long until when I wrote I had forgotten my name, but soon thought of it. Now what about that? ha! tal! So let us write more. Buckholts, Tex. "BOB." DEAR GIRLS: I have been missing from your column for a good while, as I suppose you all have had a lovely vacation. Really, girls, I did not know what to write about, but nevertheless I certainly have enjoyed reading the letters written by the girls from the South, as they seem to write most interesting people, and to hear of the next meeting being called off. With much love to all the girls. "MARSALLOW." Plainfield, N. J. DEAR GIRLS: We are not dead, neither are we solemn. Why not be loyal to the Girl's Column. We did get slack for some reason or other.

GEORGIA EDUCATOR DIES WHILE IN NEW YORK CITY Prof. William Royal Hutson, pres- ident educator, undergrad and hir- man of Warrenton, Ga., passed away Wednesday, August 9, in his sixtieth year, at the home of Mother-Taylor, 219 West 130th street. He had been in the city just three months for special medical treatment. Prof. Hudson had been superintendent of the colored public schools of Warrenton for the past thirty years and his life was an inspiration to the youth with whom he came in contact. Many Georgia men owe their start in life to his philanthropy and encouragement. His activities and interests were heavy, depriving him often of much needed rest, as a result of which he broke in health about a year ago. Failing to regain his health in the the Sophia, he came North three months ago to take special treatments.

ORIGINAL PAINTINGS AT NEGRO ART EXHIBIT The outstanding feature of the second annual exhibition of the works of Negro artists which is being held at the 153th street branch of the New York Public Library, is the number of original paintings and etchings shown. The committee in charge of this year's exhibition extend original compositions preferring to exhibit a smaller number of paintings and etchings that were my copies of any other artist's work, than to feature the best reproductions of masterpieces. It is sought to give every encouragement possible to the creative genius of the race. The musical and literary programs under the direction of Miss Jessica Fauzet, are features of the exhibit, and the public is urged to attend the Thursday evening session in large numbers. On last Thursday evening, Charles Burch, assistant professor of English, Howard University, delivered a lecture on 'The Negro Elements in Early American History'; reading passages from William Gilmore Sims; John Pierpont, John Quincy Adams; Samuel Sewell and other early American writers, dealing with the question of slavery. Prof. Burch commented favourably on poems of Phyllis Wheatley, James Weldon Johnson, Paul Laurence Dumbar and other Negro writers of distinction. Augustus G. Dill played two selections, one a distinctive Negro theme from Dett's "Prelude," and another from Coleridge-Taylor's "Othello." The exhibition will continue at the West 135th Street Library until October 1. The hours are from 2 to 9 in the evening. daily. The concerts on Thursday evenings are given in the lecture hall of the Library. entrance through the gate to the left of the main entrance.

King, the new superintendent at College Station, New York City, postmaster, at 14th street and Edgecombe avenue, cautions users of the mail against careless methods which result in unrecoverable losses. Especial warning is issued in reference to the practice of sending money in special delivery letters. "DON'T DO IT," says the official. Always register valuable mail matter. In no other way can it be safeguarded from loss. Care should also be exercised in addressing mail matter. Be sure to have the correct address, and if the party addressed is not the householder or head of the family, it is best to address letter in care of the person who is the head of the house. Return directions, in case letter is undelivered for any reason, should always be written plainly on the envelope or outside wrapper. Persons renting apartments or rooms in apartments should be sure to have names plainly written or printed and placed in the mail boxes, and care should be taken to see that the mail boxes are secure.
