Lawrence Lowell of Harvard University is to have his way, that great institution of learning, which has always stood as a representative of the rights of mankind, without regard to race, color, creed or condition, will in future extend its welcome to members of other races than the Negro. This was brought out in a plain, definite manner when President Lowell wrote Roscoe Conkling Bruce, an honor graduate of Harvard, son of the late Senator Blanch Kelso Bruce of Mississippi, who was also a former Register of the United States Treasury, that Roscoe Conkling Bruce's son could not be accepted as a resident in the Freshman Halls, even though residence in that building for students is compulsory.

It is a thing, may I add in all cander, which all self-respecting Americans of color do not desire. And, be assured, no son of man will ever deny his name of his blood or his tradition. "To provecthe a youth because of his race is a procedure an novel at Harvard until your administration as it is unscientific. However unpopular the Jew, the Irishman and the Negro may be in certain minds and certain sections and at certain times (wartime not being one), the fact remains that the distribution of human excellence in each of these races as in the case of every other race, begins at zero and ends at infinity. Shall Harvard Be Less Humane? "The differences in racial excellence consists in the comparative numbers of individuals to be found in the higher reaches of the vast curve upward of human quality and serviceability. And to assess the relative values of the several stocks of mankind en masse is, one must concede, an exceedingly delicate and diffuse, indeed perilous task. "Who shall describe a Straus, a Thunkett or a Douglass because of his race? The particular individual may be a personality of charm and power and prospect absolutely apart from the theoretical frequency of inferiorities in the race. From Kindergarten to university, I wouldain believe, the spirit of education approaches children and youth as individuals, not as racial symbols. Even courts of law deal with men upon their ascertained merits as individuals. Shall a world famed nursery of the humanities be less humane? "After Charles W. Elliott, Harvard cannot escape the grave responsibilities of leadership in American life. And one leads by ascent to higher levels after the manner of scholar and statesman, of poet and prophet; not by descent. Two Unfortunate Words. "To me, whose personal indebtedness to Harvard is immeasurable, the university is neither a mere mechanism of instruction nor a social club, but a center of enlightenment and idealism and service rendered holy by aspiring centuries. "Few words in the English language, I submit, are susceptible of more poignant abuse than two you have seen fit to employ. The first is "race"; the second, "necessity." As the one is often nothing more than a term of social convenience, so the other is quite often a means of buttress prejudice. But, veritas is less elusive." Graduates Meet President. Concissent with the giving out of these letters, a meeting was held at the Harvard Club, 27 West 44th street, Manhattan, attended by President Lowell and a group of prominent Harvard graduates. Among these men were several who had signed a memorial last June, which was sent to Harvard alumni all over the United States, declaring that Harvard is swinging to a Jim Crow policy to please students from southern states, holding President Lowell responsible for the anti-Negro attitude. Details of the meeting on January 10 indicate that attitude of those present was that no student should be barred from full participation in the student life of the university and that the matter will not be dropped. However, President Lowell had already replied to Mr. Bruce, reiterating his decision that young Bruce would not be given accommodations in the Freshman Hall. President Lowell's second letter was as follows: "I am sorry that you do not feel the NEW YORK, N. Y., SATURDAY, JANUARY 20, 1923. MRS.

So farewell services will be held the next day. The Rev. Dr. A. Clayton Powell, pastor, will lead his flock from the lower reaches of the city to a higher section—for they are already well advanced on the task of erecting a new house of worship in West 180th street at Seventh avenue. The new home is not yet ready for occupancy, so Dr. Powell and his congrregation have been compelled to make temporary arrangements for continuing church services. Beginning Sunday, January 28, and each Sunday thereafter, Abyssinian Church will hold its morning service at the Palace Casino, 153rd street and Madison avenue, now known as the Commonwealth Casino and morning service will be held in the vestry of the Metropolitan Baptist Church, the use of which has been hospitably extended to the Abyssinian membership by Rev.

Former Congressman Walter M. Chandler is the Republican candidate for reelection, and Republicans in all parts of the district are rallying to his support. At the Central Republican Club on Monday night, January 15, an enthusiastic meeting was held in the interest of Congressman Chandler's candidacy. The meeting was presided over by David B. Costuma, leader of the 19th Assembly District, and after impressing the importance of the election upon the captains and workers present, he urged them to work diligently in behalf of the Republican candidate. Congressman Chandler was present and pledged his service to the people if elected. A number of other workers spoke, and many Republicans from other districts volunteered their services to go into the district and do what they could to aid in the election of their candidate. All of the readers of The Age in the 19th Congressional District are urged to vote at this election on January 30. one week respectively.

GEORGIA PASTOR SAYS PEOPLE ARE LEAVING The New York Age is in receipt of a letter from the Rev. William A. McCloud of Wadley, Ga., pastor First Baptist Church, Stillmore, Ga., president Walker Baptist Association, declaring that members of his church, convention and association, with their friends, are leaving that section daily for the North, West and other places. "Since the Anti-Lynching Bill was killed," writes Rev. McCarthy, "the Negroes are anxious to leave the South more than ever. They are coming to me seeking advice as to where to get jobs in the North and West. Will they touch with the firms who want laborers, so I can give them proper advice? The better class of whites are all to pieces to know what to do, but nothing can be done about it. Our people are determined to leave Old Georgia." I. H. Nutter Is Barred (Special To, The New York Age) Atlantic City, N. I.—Reformation of the Republican party in Atlantic City was begun on the first of the year, and the colored clubs have been reorganizing and several new clubs have been formed. The Young Men's Republican Club, with Attorney Walter Comer at president, and the Atlantic City Independent Colored Citizen's League, with Dr. Wilson, president, are new political organizations among the colored citizens. It is alleged that Attorney Isaac H. Nutter, for a long time prominent in Republican politics here, made application for membership in each of these organizations, but both were unfavorably acted upon. Sheriff Loans Jack Johnson $122 to Make Up Sum Needed Jack Had $250 in His Pocket, But Balance Old Debt Was $355, Costs, $17.50, Total $372.50, and It Had To Be Paid The New York Amsterdam News has taken exception to a news story carried in THE AGE of January 13, under the headlines, "HOTEL OLGA HEAD SUITS N. Y. AMSTERDAM NEWS," the news story declaring the suit was based on a false story published by the Amsterdam News to the effect that the Hotel Olga had been raided. In a letter to Fred R. Moore, editor of THE AGE, William Kelly, editor and manager of the Amsterdam News, says that the article carried by his paper did not state that the Hotel Olga was raided, "but that a room at the Hotel Olga was raided." After asking that a retraction be published on front page of THE AGE, Mr. Kelly writes: "Furthermore, we are compelled to request that you retract the statement that a suit has been instituted against the New York Amsterdam Nets for $16,000 damages by Edward H. Wilson, proprietor of the Hotel Olga, because up to this date (January 13) no such notice has been served upon us." Information as to the suit was given THE AGE by Mr. Wilson himself, who called in person at THE AGE office, as did Judge Raymond, his legal representative. Mr. Wilson sat, on Wednesday morning, January 17, that a demand made on January 5 upon the Amsterdam News for retraction of the original publication had not been complied with and that papers in a label suit against that newspaper, were being prepared and would be filed without delay. Jack Johnson, the former world's champion heavyweight pugilist, was in the office of Sheriff Percy E. Nagle on Tuesday, faced with the alternative of paying a balance of $355 on an old debt or going to Ludlow Street Jail. And there were court costs of $17.50, making a total of $72.50. But Jack only had $250 in his pocket, even though his $10,000 car was parked outside and there seemed to be a million dollars worth of gold parked in his showy teeth. Justice Tierney of the Supreme Court had signed a commitment against the fighter in a suit won by Barney Gearard, theatrical manager, for $1,400, all of which had been paid save the $555. Now this balance had to be paid or Jack would have to go to jail. Deputy Sher- (Special To The New York Age) Philadelphia, Pa.-Bishop Benjamin Tucker Tanner of the A. M. E.

Negotiations were begun with outside interests for raising the needed $122 and while this was being done, Sheriff Nagle invited Johnson into his private office. The sheriff is a big man physically, topping Jack by, several inches, and he proved himself a big man in every way when he learned the situation. He immediately offered a personal loan to Jack of the necessary amount, and the offer was quickly accepted by the smiling pugilist in the same spirit in which it was offered. Deputy Sheriff Conlin was paid the entire amount due, the debt was satisfied. Jack shook hands with Sheriff Nagle and other friends, then he lighted a fresh cigar and drove away in his glittering gas charc CHANGE DATE FOR CADET BAND RECITAL The public demonstrated, scheduled originally for January 26 by the newly formed cadet band of the 300th Infantry under Lieut. Mikell has been changed to the evening of Friday. February 2, because there would be an unavoidable conflict with the date of closing the winter term of the city public schools. The hope of Lieut. Mikell and his coworkers is especially to enlist the interest of a large number of the boys who are in school, so the date has been set back a week that all of the boys may have opportunity of hearing the program which is being prepared by the thirty or more boys now making up the nucleus of the band which will eventually number at least one hundred little race boys. All boys and their parents are invited to be present at the free concert at 300th armory, 132nd street and Seventh avenue, Friday evening, February 2, at 8:30 o'clock.

Up to Saturday, January 13, academy were four Brooklyn colored, included looking after the billiard applied with balls, chalk, cues, etc. that Age, matters came to a climax on Law Saturday. Always a busy day, with tables in great demand, a number of wouldbe customers were sitting around waiting for an opportunity to secure a vacant table. One group was composed of five men, four white and one colored all well dressed, well behaved men, one of the white men being owner of the building in which the academy is located, it is said, the young colored man being in his employ. This group first had lunch, all sitting and eating together at the lunch counter. Then they went over to one of the tables and made preparation to enjoy a friendly section. The colored girl, in whose section their table happened to be, went over to the manager's desk to secure the necessary cue ball. Then came the first intimation that all was not as it should be. In moreullen and angry mood, "Bill" told the girl to tell the men he could find no ball. She did not understand. There in front of her was the box with a number of balls in it. She repeated her request for a ball and again "Bill" said tell the men he could find no ball. Realizing that the manager was trying to shift to her the unpleasant duty of insulting wouldbe patrons, the girl finally left the desk and went to one of the other girls and told her what "Bill" had said. This girl, more experienced, as it happened, immediately saw through "Bill's" game, and she advised the first girl, "Don't do as he told you, but go over to the table and tell one of the white men to go and see the manager himself." Hesitating and timid, the girl finally went back to her table. When asked for the cue ball, she told the men that "Bill" would not send them one. Asked for a reason, she told them they probably knew. It dawned on them that they were being discriminated against because of the presence of the young colored man. They looked around. At one table the players included a Chinaman, at another there were two men whose dress indicated them to be street cleaners or trash cart inen, just off duty, and there were a number of players whose costumes lacked both cleanliness and neatness. Then they looked at their colored companion. He was scripturally clean, his clothes were in perfect order, neat and in good taste. As a matter of fact, of the group of five, even including his employer, the colored man was the best dressed and the most attractive looking. Discuss at the action of Irish "Bill" Hallan, the manager, rose up within them. "To h—I with Bill," said one of them; "we can play anywhere," we don't have to play in this place; come on, let's go." And the men left. Three of the four colored girls employed there were on duty. The fourth was not due until later in the day. As the men left the room, the girls realized that "Bill's" main object was to humilitate a decent, respectable young fellow, their brother in blood. They began to think of, other things. Of an order, for instance, issued by "Bill," that a girl wanting to drink a glass of water must take the glass into a little cuddy-hole, designated a "dressing room," which was really a part of the room in which the toilet was located. Another order prohibited the girls from eating at the lunch counter, although any street sweeper, longshoreman, janitor, Chinese, Japan, or what not, was a welcomed customer. Then they thought of suggestive innuendos, indirect advances, masked phrases indicating lustful inclinations—and then indication and contempt arose within their breasts. The one to whom the manager had refused the hall gave utterance to the crymialization of her thought: "Let's strike!" Room rent had to be paid; food had to be bought; the Holidays, with increased demands, had just passed; but there was the method by which "Bill" of the Recreation Billiard Academy and his employer, Frank Dwyer, and all the other "Bills" of similar type, could be shown that the Negro has race price, moral fibre and dignity of action. "LET'S STRIKE!" And the phrase found a response in the breasts of the other two girls. "WE'RE GAME!" they said. Off came their aprons, hats and criff protectors. On went their hats and coats and gloves. Then to the manager's desk. "What do you want?" asked that surprised official. "Our money," said the girls. And then the Irishman "Bill" discovered that at least three of the colored girls who had been working there were also WOMEN. For it was Saturday, the regular pay day, and the pay envelopes lay in the cash, drawer, ready to hand, only it was just 2 o'clock, not 4, when these girls would have been through with their week's work. And "Bill" refused to pay them, saying they would have to wait until 4 o'clock. But if they waited until 4, they would simply be quitting, whereas by leaving at 2, they were registering their protest against conditions which were objectionable and in so doing they proclaimed their womanhood. So they left without their money—but they carried with them their Pride, their Self-Respect, and their Moral Laundry. --- Abandonment of Race Charged Because of Howard's Letter Neval H. Thomas Tells Washington Audience That Perry Howard Should Be a True Representative of Race and Tell Dominant Power our Wants Drawing Color Line, Harvard President Arouses Graduates PAGE TWO Abandonment o Because of H Neval H. Thomas Tells W Perry Howard Should of Race and Tell Dom (Special To The New York Age) Washington, D. G.—"What will the Senate, and even Senator DuPont himself, think of Negro statesmanship when a man holding the highest executive appointment the race has received has no higher sense of responsibility to his constituency than to surrender it to the mob?" was the question hurled at Perry W. Howard by Neval H. Thomas, when the latter was denouncing before a large audience at the Y. M. C. A. on Sunday afternoon the letter recently made public alleged to have been written by Howard to Senator DuPont of Delaware, in which the colored official from Mississippi expressed opposition to passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill because it was being supported by the N. A. A. C. P. Mr. Thomas scored the abandonment of the race by Mr. Howard in the nationwide fight for the Dyer Bill. He recalled that Howard wrote letters to Senator DuPont and other Senators, asking that no support be given the bill because the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People was leading the fight for it. This letter, said Mr. Thomas, furnished a good reason for lack of action by Senators who were already lukewarm in attitude toward the Bill. Mr. Thomas charged that when the letter was discovered, to Mr. Howard's surprise, the latter was posing as a friend of the Bill. Being uncloaked by the unexpected publication of his letter, termed by him a "private letter," charged Mr. Thomas, the reply was made, by Mr. Howard in a letter to the press and in a speech before the Y. M. C. A., was a series of evasions, mud-slinging and preposterous claims of having grown poorer in race service, and even implied that the DuPont letter was written by a helpless secretary. Continuing, Mr. Thom: "said: 'I am truly glad that the Senate has on its permanent record the statesmanship of Revels, Druc. c. Lynch, Rainy, Robert Brown Elliott, and other Negro political leaders of the Reconstruction, so that it can see that Perry Howard in no way interprets the aplendid idealism of the Negro. Read the eloquent, learned and race-lowly, speech of Robert Brown Elliott in the American Congress on Charles Summer's last birthday, January 6, 1874, and compare it with the coarse, grovelling, demagogic rot of Perry Howard. Howard must remember that he holds no private position. He is in his high position in recognition of our existence and ballot in this country, hence he should be our ambassador to the court of power to tell these who dominate this country what the Negro wants. Instead he has flown in the face (on the sly, however, as he never expected to be found out) of the unanimous wish and aspiration of the race he is supposed to represent. My friends don't think that this discovery will make any change in the spirit and loyalty of Perry Howard. It will Drawing Color L President Aro (Continued from First Page) reasonableness of our position about the Freshman dormitories. It is not a departure from the past to refuse to compel white and colored men to room in the same building. We owe to the colored man the same opportunities for education that we do to the white man; but we do not owe to him to force him and the white into social relations that are not, or may not be, mutually congenial. "Would Increase Prejudice." "We give him freely opportunities for room and board wherever it is voluntary; but it seems to me that for the colored man to claim that he is entitled to have the white man compiled to live with him is a very unfortunate innovation which, far from doing him good, would increase a prejudice that, as you and I will thoroughly agree, is most unfortunate and probably growing. "On the other hand, to maintain that compulsory residence in the Freshman dormitories—which has proved a great benefit in breaking up the social cliques that did muds injury to the college—should not be established for 90% per cent. of the students because the remaining one-half of 1 per cent could not properly be included, seems to me an untenable position. "Regretting very much that we should not agree upon the wisdom of the policy adopted for the Freshman dormitories, I am. "Very truly yours." B. e's Second Letter. To this letter Mr. Bruce replied in a dignified, thoughtful enjule that took cognizance of the increase of prejudice referred to by Mr. Lowell, but begged that Harvard should not become a party to its growth. He wrote as follows: "Yes, the wind just now is blowing in the direction of increased prejudice toward Americans of African descent. The same phenomenon is observable in the case of Irish, Catholics and of Jews. But the course of high-minded leadership is not determined by the shifting of such winds. Harvard is under no obligation, yet inform me, to 'force' the man of color and the white man into 'social relations that are not, or may not be, mutually congenial.' The soothing of boys in the same building is the present case: Social Intimacy Voluntary. "When I go to New York-City I stop it at the Astor. Should I reach Boston tomorrow I should stop at the Parker, House. In either of these buildings here may be at the same time men and romen of pure Angelo-Saxon blood and addition from the Southern States. We live for the time being under the same cool. We walk the same hills and more. We lie in the same hoily. A social relation is constituted thereby in the same sense that residence in the same simply make him more careful. After this he won't write; he will talk. Can he not see that the race is against him? When he entered this hall the other Sunday to explain himself there was not a single hand-clap in the vast audience, and Pickens' reply was frequently interrupted with thunderdus applause. "Thing of his alibi! He says his letter to the Senators was a private letter. A private letter written to big public men on a fundamental public issue. That alibi is as stupid as it is dishonest. He says again that his secretary wrote it How false, yet his faithful, but helpless secretary must not say a word. "Let Perry Howard have his fine properties in Chicago, his plantations in Mississippi, his cash and fine position at our expense, but let us keep the faith of the fathers and submerge every selfish consideration in the single thought of service of our noble race. "Mr. Howard is certainly an enlightened leader. He told Senators not to pass the Anti-Lynching Bill because the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People was sponsor for it, and was leading the fight. In other words he said that he wanted his race, and even his own little children, exposed to the flames of the savage mob because our great organization was spending its soul and treasure in their defense. Yet this is the great organization which only this week stood before the Supreme Court of the United States in defense of the outraged victims of personal and judicial lynching in the benighted State of Arkansas. The learned lawyer, a devoted lover of his fellow man, the Hon. Morehouse Storey secured a unanimous decision against residential segregation from this same tribunal four years ago without one cent's expense to the colored people. At this very hour he, as one of the most illustrious of Harvard's great alumni, is leading the fight against President Lowell's Ku Klux policy in that great seat of learning. Yet this is the organization, and this is the mighty man whose efforts to save our country Mr. Howard wants the Senate to ignore. "Even in this southern community we have been able to achieve many notable victories. Our devoted president and our able and vigilant executive secretary recently discovered two cases of peonage right here in the nation's capital and emancipated the victims. Our local branch has stood on the firing line for ten years securing better school facilities for your children, positions in the civil service for successful candidates whom the authorities were trying to keep out, the raising of insulting stigma in public places, and dozens of other victories over the southern spirit. It has fought many with out success yet, but we intend to keep in the fight until our city and our country are free from prejudice, and our fellow-countriesmen considers the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments are as sacred as the 18th, and until they know that insistence upon one, and outrage upon another imperils our entire governmental structure." block or city or State or Nation or riding in the same street car constitutes a social relation of a certain order. But social intimacy there is none—unless it be entirely voluntary on both sides. "Social intimacy is no more compellible in the case of the Freshman Hall at Harvard than in the case of the Hotel. Here are Smith from Texas and Jones from Mississippi, lily white freeman, living in the same hall. Does the university undertake to force Smith and Carrs into social intimacy? Certainly not! A college dormitory, I know, is not a hotel, but in essential the analogy holds. Scullions and thieves may sleep under the same roof with aristocrats and saints, but social intimacy does not result necessarily nor does the question of the congeniality of the mechanical relation of abode ever arise. "Of Course I Protest." "I suppose that none may deny that being members of the same college class is a social relationship. Being members of the same university is certainly one. If the principle which you are applying to the present case of roaming in the same building is conceded, the day may come when it will be applied to the class, the classroom, the campus, the university itself. Of course I protest. "Is it not fair to say that this "is not a departure from the past? Hitherto Harvard—and it is not the attitude of a group of private persons but that of a renowned university affected by a public interest that is at issue—has looked upon the individual student as an individual and not as a racial symbol. It has extended to him all its facilities with exclusive regard not to his ancestry but to himself. And one does not. I submit, determine questions of principle by percentages. "Granted that the wind just now is blowing in the direction of reaction does it not behoove a great and responsible centre of enlightenment to be caught, like some paltry straw, in the gust? If the way to resume spec payments is to resume (as Grover Cleveland pointed out with clarity), the way to lead is not to follow. Likoma Policy to that of Klam "A former president of Harvard has set forth weightly some of the considerations that lead to the belief that our American democracy may endure. But a policy that officially recognizes and sanctions and accentuates racial incompatibilities among the diverse elements of our population conduces not to the stability of our institutions. "Impress, if you will, upon the Irishman (not forgetting the 'Roman Conquest' of Massachusetts mentioned, by Mr. Macy), or the Jew or Negro the idea that the oldest and oldest of our universities shares the conviction of the Ku Klux Klan that, no matter what his charm and gift and serviceability as an individual he can not full-fledged American because of the very blood in his veins, you manufacturers arrive in the THE NEW YORK AGE: SATURDAY, JANUARY 28, 1923. protect and prepare for the future—strife. "And I speak not as a radical, but as a conservative." Board of Overagora to Art. An interesting development following the publication of this correspondence is that the exclusion of young "Bruce from the Freshman dormitories has never been acted upon by the Board of Overscars, one of the two governing boards of the institution. The other board, the Corporation, is composed of the President and Fellows. Joint action by both boards is required on all important matters and especially matters that represent the university's policy. Even though the Corporation has considered the Bruce matter, it is stated as a certainty that the Board of Overscars will take it up. Many of the most prominent men in the country, Harvard graduates, have declared against President Lowell's action. Rev. Dr. William Channing Gannett of Rochester said the proposed exclusion policy at Harvard would violate all her best traditions. Said he, "In its measure it would Jim Crow the college. It would show her siding with those disposed to increase rather than lessen the burden of birth of the colored people in our land." In absolute contradiction to President Lowell's assertion in his letter to Mr. Bruce that his ruling "is not a departure from the pata" comes the definite statement from President emeritus Charles W. Elliot, who was for forty years the active head of Harvard, that "such discriminations would violate very precious Harvard traditions." Former Pres. Elliot Protests. Dr. Elliot, now living in retirement at Cambridge, Mass, during whose presidency Harvard became recognized as standing preeminently for democratic ideals in education, spoke out in opposition to Lowell's action in the following telegram: "I am opposed to every form of racial discrimination in the universities of our heterogeneous democracy. Any such discrimination would violate very precious Harvard traditions." Capt. "Ham." Fish Denounces Exclusion One of the strongest protests against the action taken by President Lowell is contained in a letter written by Congressman Hamilton Fish of New York, who gave out on Monday last the text of a communication he had sent President Lowell. Congressman Fish, a graduate of Harvard, who served during the World War as a captain in New York's famous regiment of Negro soldiers, the "Hellfighting 15th." (369th A. E. F. commanded by Col. "Bill" Hayward), denounced exclusion of Negroes from the freshmen dormitories as a stain on the university's tradition in his letter to President Lowell. Congressman Fish wrote: "The policy promulgated by you excluding from the freshmen dormitories of Harvard all colored undergraduates Bantraynes, in my opinion, the traditions and ideals which have done so much to develop the greatness of our university as a seat of learning and as a liberal institution. "Your policy of exclusion is the adoption of the Jim Crow methods of the South, the complete negation of the very reason for the creation of the freshman dormitories. As an undergraduate I was an ardent supporter of yours in advocating the establishment of freshman dormitories and mandatory attendance because I believed it was a practicable way of furthering democratic aims of the university. Don't Aim to Obtrude. "The few colored men who enter Harvard are educated and cultivated students seeking higher education and the opportunities for a liberal education. Can it be that these few men can so shock the susceptibilities of present-day Harvard undergraduates that they desire to deny them a right to live and to eat in the spacious dormitories? " "These colored students are not seeking to be introduced into the homes of their classmates or to attend their teas or dances or to obtrude where they are not wanted; all they ask is a right to live and let live, and to enjoy the same privileges as other undergraduates in purely academic affairs." "It is generally admitted that it is through education that the condition of our colored citizens can best be improved, yet when the leaders of that race such as young Bruce, grandson of a former distinguished United States Senator and whose father was an honor graduate, seek to enter Harvard, are they henceforth to be brutally told that they can enter only at the price of ostracism? Great National University "Where is this system of proscription going to end? Are Asiatics to be discriminated against? Is it the same Harvard that conferred an honorary degree a few years ago on Booker T. Washington? Harvard is not a private school, but a great national university, with its gates wide open to all who can comply with the entrance requirements, based on scholarship, not on race, color or creed. During the war I had the honor and privilege of serving with a colored National Guard regiment from New York State. These enlisted men are imbued with the idea that they were fighting to make the world safe for democracy. What a hollow mockery. I would be derelict to the memory of those men in my command who paid the supreme sacrifice in battle if I remained silent on this issue affecting the civil rights of their race. "It was good enough them in defense of our country to sleep alongside of our colored comrades, but it seems too much now to ask undergraduates even to live under the same roof with cultured Negroes, although separated by partitions. This is not the spirit of democracy; it is not the spirit of New England. And it is not the spirit of Harvard. "Certainly there has been no referendum among Harvard graduates on this amazing divergence from our historic policy. Have we already forgotten the glorious memory of Col. Robert Could Shaw of the 54th Massachusetts Colored Infantry? What of the uncompromising and fearless fight waged by John Quincy Adams, Charles Summer, Edward Sherett and ni our day, by Theodore Roosevelt in behalf of the civil rights of the Negro race? I do not believe that such discriminatory action would have ever been considered in the lifetime of Major Haggison and other prominent Civil War unionists. Washington's Civic Center Fights Segregated Bathing Objects to Government Appropriation for Bathing Beach Being Used to Provide Facilities in Waters Outside District of Columbia (Special To The New York Age) Washington, D. C.-The long and persistent fight by the Civic Center of Affiliated Associations of the District of Columbia against the segregation of the bathing beach by the Federal authorities, reached its climax when the Association presented to the Secretary of War one of the most strongly endorsed petitions ever presented by colored citizens of Washington. Early in June, when the first announcement was published that a segregated beach would be opened for colored people, the Civic Center sent urgent letters to the President and to Lieut. Col. Sherrill, protesting against the Columbia Island location. Chairman William D. Nixon, Dr. Creed W. Childs, sr., Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, Rev. Emory B. Smith and Dr. Emmett J. Scott, representing the Association, called by appointment on the Secretary of War and strong pleas for right and justice were made. The authorities proposed to change the approach to the Columbia Island site from a point on the Virginia side to a point on the District side, but this failed to meet the approval of the committee. Four interviews have been held with Secretary Weeks. With the exception of Dr. Scott, who attended the first meeting only, the above committee has continued at a great sacrifice of time and energy to gather facts and present arguments to meet the situation. The latest proposition to locate the beach at the south end of the new Key Bridge, made possible by a special decision handed down by the Attorney General of the United States, that the District of Columbia extended to the highwater mark on the Virginia side of the Potomac River, and the asking of Congress by Major Beech for $50,000 for a Jim Crow park for the colored people of the city were subjects of discussion which resulted in the Secretary declaring that there would be no separate park for colored people. Dr. Creed W. Childs and Rev. Emory J. Smith made brilliant appeals for fair treatment; Chairman William D. Nixon, assuring the Secretary that every effort had been made to obtain the views of citizens relative to the river front, presented the following petition; THE CIVIC CENTER OF AFFILIATED ASSOCIATIONS Of the District of Columbia To the Hon. Secretary of War. War Department. Washington. D. C. Dear Sir: In deference to your expressed desire for the submission of a site for the location of a bathing beach agreeable to the wishes of the colored citizens of the District of Columbia, the committee representing the Civic Center of Affiliated Associations sought the opinion of numerous organizations, institutions and individuals in all sections of the city and representing all walks of life in regard to points along the river front best suitable for the beach with the result that they agree with the original concession of the Civic Center of Affiliated Associations, that self-respect demands that we accept no implied segregation on the part of the United States Government. We feel that this great movement should live up to the noble sentiments embodied in the Declaration of Independence and the principles of citizenship as laid down in the Constitution which calls for our support in the time of national danger. We ask to be accorded now the privilege which our valor entitles us to enjoy in times of tranquility. As long as the Tidal Basin is used for bathing purposes the colored citizens are entitled to and demand the privilege of the same Tidal Basin, or that the appropriation may revert to the Treasury Department of the United States. We will not be deported or ostracized in connection with this bathing beach with our consent. Respectfully submitted, W. D. NIXON, President. H. E. BARNETT, Sec'y.

C., who had been commenced along distance telephone, reached the bedside a few hours before their daughter died. The funeral was held in Bright Hope, well Baptist Church, of which she was a member, on Sunday, December 24, the pastor, Rev. L. W. Werts, onasting. The choir sang "Nearer, my God, Thee," as the body was brought into the church. Rev. N. J. Past, announced the hymn, "Face to face," Rev. J. B. Franis of the Presbyterian Church read the scripture lesson, and prayer was offered by Rev. McNair. After singing of "I would not live away," by the choir, resolutions on behalf of the faculty of Laurinburg Institute, where Mrs. McDuffie was a teacher, were read by Miss Glenn, of the faculty; Eulogy, "Beulah McDuffie as a neighbor," was read by Mrs. F. H. Parker; another, "Mrs. McDuffie as a choir member," was read by Mrs. L. L. King. "Some time we'll understand," was sung by Mrs. H. H. Johnson and the Rev. L. L. King read telegrams and letters. The sermon was preached by Rev. Wertz from Deuteronomy 34:1. Revs. Past, Francis, King and C. S. Crompler of the First Baptist Church, Maxton, also spoke. Interment was in Cedar Griwe Cemetery. She is survived by the husband, two daughters, one son father and mother, When one thinks of HAIR and TOILET PREPARATIONS, one, at the same time, thinks of 'PORO' The "QUALITY" Preparation Known throughout the United States and Foreign countries for the GOOD they do! —WRITE— PORO COLLEGE ST.

Waller It was on a beautiful Tuesday afternoon, September 6, 1922, when we sailed from Christobal, Canal Zone, on one of the United Fruit Company's steamships for Central America, laiding at Puerto Limon, Costa Rica, on the seventh. This port is very important, in that it is the only outlet Costa Rica has on the Atlantic Coast and is practically owned and controlled by the United Fruit Company. Thousands of stems of bananas from the company's banana plantations of Costa Rica are loaded in this port. All the wharves and docks, the hospitals and means of communication, yes, everything—the Fruit Company's banana business is the most powerful enterprise in all Central America. After a few hours stay in this little banana city, we boarded the Costa Rican State railway train for San Jose, the country's capital. With the exception of being land-sick from the roughness of the road, this was the most wonderful trip of all my life; words are inadequate to describe the varied scenes along the way. The first ten miles of this trip were along the shore of the Caribbean Sea. Then, with a short swing, the sea was left in our rear and we found ourselves in the midst of the most beautiful array of nature's beauty. For thirty or thirty-five miles our train proceeded through regions of tall and stately palms and other giant trees of the forest, with their vast trunks and intervening spaces filled in with huge ferns, creepers and a brilliant collection of blossoms of all colors, presenting a scene of transcending beauty. This lowland forest is inhabited by no living creature other than the 150 species of snakes and over 700 species of birds and such other animals as are common to the country. When the low levels of the plains were left behind us, we found ourselves among some of the fruit company's great banana farms manned by West Indian colored laborers, living in little corrugated iron shanties. For miles this scene was before our eyes until the footballs of the great cordillera were reacted, when coffee and cocoa plantations manned by Indian laborers living in their little thatched roof huts were to be seen everywhere, and the rugged stony mountain scenery which was much of contrast to the lower plains. As our train made its way through mountain tunnels, along sharp edges and steep precipices, across turbulent rivers junior high schools of the tenth, eleventh, welfth and thirteenth divisions. Miss Cromwell is now instructor in English at the Armstrong Manual Training School. Miss Sadie Scmner, after a pleasant visit to Durham, N. C., returned to the city. The home of Miss Sylvia Piper was the scene of a delightful entertainment. It was in honor of her Five Hundred Club. Among those present were Messdames Lavina Kahn, Carrie Beyd, Edna Perry, Vivian Turner, Vivian Pelham, Frankie Thomas, Martha Hippus Manning, Alta Webb Clark, Smith, Howard, Missie Sadden, Justine Wilkes, Alice Chiles, Veola Menard and Parthenia Pyles.

All kinds of train tables were being offered for our station along the way, while railway bought and enjoyed what was. The writer also to make himself at home joined in the buying, but when the eating time came his food had been on its way through the window. After seven hours of travel we arrived Cartago, the second largest city former capitol of Costa Rica. The city was almost destroyed by earthquake in 1911, at which time over 500 persons lost their lives. Twelve miles further inland and two hundred and six miles from our starting point on the Atlantic stands San Jose, the capitol of the country. This is the largest and most picturesque city in Central America and at one time the capitol of the Central American Confederation. It is situated on the San Jose Plateau, from which it takes its name and is over 4,500 feet above sea level. The two great cordillera to mountain ranges which run parallel through Central America are here separated by the San Jose Plateau. This plateau and are in the midst of not less than five volcanic peaks, four of which are active at all times and are most attactive during the night. Some of these peaks reach a very great height. From San Trai, trail, nearly 12,000 feet, the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans can be seen from the same point. The city is very healthy and surprisingly cold. Being encircled by a city by high mountains and low hanging clouds, it is often hid from the outer world. Volcanic eruptions have played havoc with the inhabitants of this city. The country's finance was very weak at the time of our visit, due to constant revolution and unstable business. The last revolution which was bloodless took place in 1916. The early history of the inhabitance of Central America is shrouded in the same mystery as that of the remaining peoples of the new world, but these people as we saw them during our visit are of a mixed race. As other Spanish speaking people they were found to be very polite and the women exceptionally beautiful. Costa Rica, the smallest but one of the five Central America Countries, is approximately 50,000 square miles and has a population of 311,340 inhabitants; 24,500 of these live in San Jose. This city is not only important as above described, but the Central American can transcontinental railroad connects this point. It is also a place where ancient and modern civilization meet each day. A city in whose streets are to be seen tram cars, automobiles, oxcars with heavy wooden wheels, the driver of which use long sharp pointed instruments to control their sad looking animals. This particular incident would remind one of our good old Saint and Apostle Paul when he said, "It is hard for thee to kick against the pricks." This city is noted for some very beautiful buildings such as schools, churches and churches (Catholic). The noted is the magnificent theatre of Carrara mara, costing ten million dollars Costa Rica, with the rest of Central American States, belonged to Spain until 1821, when they revolted and became a part of the Mexican Empire. When Mexico became a republic in 1821, again revolted and formed the United States of Central America, but the nation was soon interrupted by Civil divisions which resulted in the five separate Republics. The writer had the pleasure of witnessing one of the little fractures in 1821 caused by a boundary dispute between Costa Rica and Panama, which was settled by our Dear Uncle Samuel, constantly keeps watch over his dark skinned Southern neighbors. Nevertheless, when we visited the country in September, 1922, perfect peace provided an everyone was about his own affairs. News of New York State GENEVA, N. Y. Genva, N.

VIEWS and REVIEWS By James Weldon ee |. President Lowell's efforts to justify his Jim Crow policy al Harvard’ have placed him in a pitiable position. Jn his corres pondence with -Mr. Roscoe Conkling Bruce he is wholly weak iMogical and arbitrary. Indeed, on certain points he is actually absurd. : President Lowell states that for the beat. interests of the ‘University it was found necessary to conipel ‘freshmen to live in the dormitories. He should have gone a little further and stated that in his opinion he felt it necessary to compel the white freah- men to live in and colored freshmen to live out. If the Jim Crow policy at Harvard ‘instituted by President Lowell holds. it will have far-reaching effects. . It will, without doudt, influence a great many other universities and colleges, and it Will also influence racial conditions in the South.’ The greater part of the liberal spirit which is showing itself here and there in the South has been brought about in large measure through South- ern students who have met in Northern universities. an unflinching affirmation of the equality of all, men in the realm of learning. One of the most liberalizing influences of the Southern’ racial sit- uation has been that the traditional stand of Harvaré has given to Southern white students the opportunity of coming to know their fellow colored students as human bemgs. If these Southern students are deprived of this last opportunity to learn the lessons of tolerance and understanding that come through mingling with colored men on a plate of intellectual equality. they will have lost the most important thing, almost, that Harvard is able to give them. 3 7 ae It is very encouraging to note the attitude which the New York papers have taken on this matter. We are quite. sure that President Lowell had no idea he was coming in for 20 much unenviable publicity. We would not be at all surprised if he is not ultimately forced to the place of greatly modifying his ex- clusion order or even resigning his position. DIXON DENIES HIS CHILD,’ s never cease.

Now here come .Thomas Dixon author of "The Clansman,” denouncing the Ku Klux Kian ‘an¢ refusing to allow the Baltimore branch of the-organization the right to call itself the Thomas. Dixon Klan. In a statement pub: lished last week in the New York “Globe” Mr. Dixon said: “When I wrote “The Clansman,” I wrote it as a story and I tried ty depict ax accurately as possible conditions as they existed in the South at the close of the Civil War, [did not even claim to be in sympathy with the South of the Reconstruction era.- 1 merely reported conditions. “Today no such situation confronts any part of the country. The carpet-bagging period is ended and the courts and the laws of dhe nation” are functioning propery. . “Therefore, I think it is exceedingly dangerous to have an active organization such as the Ku Klux Klan appears to be. Jt is revolutionary. for this order to take in its own hands the administration of the law. I cannot express my disapproval of the Klan in too strong terms.” In spite of Mr. Dixon's statement, he is father’ of the modern Ku Klux Klan. It was his writings and his moving picture plays which made possible the’re-birth of the organization. Mr. Dixon's ciaim that the old order was a chivalrous body- which rendered a great patriotic service to the country is all bowl: The'old Klan was just as pernicious as the new one. Whether it is fear of the consequences of his labors or 2 re- maining sense of decency which causes Mr. Dixon to denounce and renounce the modern Ku Klux Klan we do not know. How- ever, he will have great difficulty in getting away from the fact that it is his own child, _ THE NEW SOUTHERN EXODUS. © Mr. Lester A. Walton in his article m the New York “World” of last Sunday tells of the new wave of Negro migration from the South. Mr. Walton paraphrases Coue as follows: “Day by day in every way the Negro migration waye is getting larger and larger.” He states that fifty thousand is a consarvative estimate of the number of Negroes who have left the Southern States for the Northwest and Middle West within the past ninety days. He puts down lynching. exploitation, and denial of, common justice as the causes behind the exodus. He also points out that the whites of the South are becoming atarmed and that <ome liberal leaders are urging that steps be taken to stop the movement. ‘The facts regarding migration which Mr. Walton has set down are corroborated from other sources, For example. in 2 tural community in one of the Southwestern states there is a branch of the N. A. A.C. PL” Last week the National Office of that ‘organization received a letter from the branch which con tained the following paragraph: “Our branch has scattered very. very much in the fast two montha going northwest. We began with upwards of two hundred meaters and now we are down to about forty, and they are Dlanmng to go. The Secretary is gone and the President is planning to go. and several others ef which I shall not menticn just now, and some of us are in such con- dition until we can't go. Although the ordeal that we are going through demands our room, yet we are unable to cross the Mason and Dixon line.” Further corroboration is contained in an article on the Ku Klux Klan in the New York “Herald” of last Sunday. Tit this article it is disclosed that the powerful influences’ in the Sonth ‘called the Klan off the Negro because the activities of that or- ganization. were driving Negroes out of the cotton-raising dis- tricts of the South. The article in the “Herald” contained some. interesting statistics regarding the falling off in the increase of Negro population in several Southern States in the last decade ax shown im the census, We quote these statistics as follows: The 1920 ceneus returns indicate plaaly tha drift af the eclored - Pepulation since the Invisible Empire became’ a menace The increase tn the Nege= papulation of Gerrgia tram 1900 to 1940, a@ for instance, was 137 per cent, whereas from 1910 to 1920 it dropped te 25 per cent. far helow the increase due. AC the beginning of the Ku Klux movement Florida was quickly organied and many Negroes frightened cr actually mistreated. The in- crease there From 190) to 1910 was 338 ‘per cent, but that went down 19 67 from 1910 to 1920, : . “Alabama was Ku Klux ridden for sveral years. Her Negro pop- wiation increased 98 per cent. from 1900 to 1910. but dececased 08 per ; cent. from 1910 tw 1928. € From 1900 to f910 the Negroes of Mississippi increased NZ percent, but from 1910 to 1920 they decreased 7.4 per cent. a In Louisiana the Negroes increased 9.7 Per cent from 1990 to 1910 - and decreased 1.9 per cent. from 1910 to 1929, Ls . This new wave of migration is the most encouraging sign now| fo be seen in the South. In leaving the South the Negro i« bring- ing inta play the strongest force at his comimand. He is exercis. ing economic pressure, the most powerful that can be exerted. except overwhelining -physical force, If migration could--bring about intlnences strong envugh to call off ‘the Ku Klux Klan. it. can, if it is wept up, ameliorate many other conditions in the South. It is within the possibilities that it could almost qatirely Abolish the three great evils, lynching. disfranchisement’ and Jim- Crowlsm. . 7 is Of course, ‘the success of this migration movement depends not only upon the Negro’s leaving the South but equally upon his taining an economic foothold in the North and West. If the ef- forts which capitalistic industry is making to open the immigra- tion gates and lét ma flood of cheap labor are unsuccessful, there will be no difficulty for the Negro in gaining an economic foot- hold in the North, If sufficient numbers of Negroes can get their hands on the ‘good paying jobs in the North and West and bring up their chil- dren and educate them in the free and civilized states. there will ‘be wrought a greater change in the condition of the race in the ‘next twenty years than can now be imagined. Certainly, the Negro will meet with opposition in the North, but it will De opposition of a different kind. It will be the op- ‘position which demands.only “Can you make good?" “The ‘old idea about the South being our dear old homeland and that we ought to love it and live in it and die in it regardless of conditions is nothing but mushy sentimentality, the sort of sentimentality we get in “My Old Kentucky Home” and “Suwanee River.” The astual fact ix there are too many Negroes packed in the South. It makes Negroés cheap, cheap as labor, sometimes cheap as fuel. The country ix too big to make such congestion neces- saty. If one-half the Negroes would come-out of the South and go into the industries in the North and-upog the land in the North- west, where they will he free from peonage, the whole race would be many fold better off. We hope that the migration will keep up. SKULL AND CROSRBONES. The voters of Savannacr recently hel. & campaign -for the purpose of electif & mayor and other city officers, Unde the Democratic primary laws of Georgia a» in most other southern states, th Negro voters are barred from exprestin their choire in the nomination of ean didates for office. The successful can didate in the primary as a rule has 07 the title to the office, as the reguls: election is in the nature of a ratification meeting. But in this Savannah contes! dissatisfaction developed. with the reg. nlar Democratic candidate and an oppo sition ticket way named. ‘The opposition ticket which had the suppoct of the Savannah Morning News evidently counted on the aid of the Ne fgfo voters to oust the unpepular city administration, which was seeking re election. In an extra issued on January 8, thé News told of an effort to intimi: date this class of voters; the best rep: resentatives of whom, it claimed. were supporting Judge Seabrook, the indepen: dent candidate. This attempt at intimi: dation took the form of a crude draw- ing of a skull and crossbones done in ink, which was posted on the door of every Negro church in Savannah, with the following inscription under the draw: ing: “This in a white man's fight. Keep away” # ‘The News contended thar both .races were outraged by this act, which trey ‘regarded as an unwarrantable attempt 19 frighten the Negroes away from the ‘polls and to prevent them fram exezcis- ing their constitutional right of fran- chise. When a white southern news: paper fike the Savannah, Morning News 1s led into auch an admisnen concerning ‘the constitutional right of franchise of Negro voters, the local political s:tu- ation must have become serious indeed. The News also published in the same issue what purported to be a legal com: munication from che Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, in whids the Savannah Klan No. 41 denied that they had anything to do with the writing oF posting of this notice, or that they had any knowledge whatever of same. ‘One fact that seems to stand out in the muddled politics of the South is, thar despiie all efforts to deprive the Negro of the franchise. the whites of the South, with accustomed incensisency, insist on making that vote a factor in their tocal elections. If such action tends to con- firm the Negro in the right to che fran- chise, he should avail himself of every opportumty ¢o use it, A constitutional tight should net be allowed to lapse through neglect.

R.—La casa de "Credito y Ahorro popular" de Yauco ha cerrado sus oficinas. Esta institution bancaria funcionaba desde hace años. La determinación ha alarmado grandemente al público, especialmente a aquellas personas que tejan alli dinero en denoso. El tesoroeró interino de Puerto Rico senor Gallardo ha declarado que recibió carta del representante de la tesoraria que investiga el banco, en la que le in- forma, que el tesoroeró-gerente de dicha institution ha sido puesto bajo fianza de $5,000. Se le acua de haber cometido un delito grave. Nuestro representantes no ha cerrimado de hacer la in- vestigación todavía, debido a que en- contró que la contabilidad y administración de dicha banco estaban en un estado deplorable.

El senor Gallardo se extendió en otras consideraciones acerca de las institu- ciones bancarias de segundo orden, y expresó su criterio en el sentido de que la tesoraria insistiría en seguir investigando los bancos pequeños semestralmente, afm de ofrecer clase de garantias a los impontees de fondos. Organización Judicial en Puero Rico. En los últimos días se ha acentuado la creencia de que pronto habrá una reorganization en todo el poder judicial de la isla. Desde hacia meses se venia hablando del particular tanto, en los circulos oficiales como en la prensa, pero entonces prevalece el criterio de que, con motivo de los últimos cambios importantes en el gobierno de la isla, y lo cual motivó la salida de la comisión unisterna para Washington a protestar contra la actuación del gobierno Reilly, se hablan dado instrucciones terminantes al gobiernoador para que cesara decretenal destituaciones y efectuando cambios violentos en el gobierno. Para en el epoca se afirma que el gobierno tenia interés en cambiar algunos funcionarios en que no tenía confianza por considerarlos elementos hostiles a la politica y propiósito del gobierno Reilly. Con motivo del viaje del gobierno a Washington se volvía a acertar la creencia y a caminar en el momento THE NEW YORK AGE: SATURDAY, JANUARY 20, 1923. actual no se tiene noticia oficial sobre la reorganización de que se habla, se sabe de fuente digna de crédito que hay muchas verdad en el movimiento de cambios judiciales y que es muy posible que el gobernador Reilly lo haya dejado todo disputado para que dichos cambios se efectiven durante la ausencia de el en los Estados Unidos. Hasta ahora no se registra en los últimos días sino la remoción del fiscal Quilones, por haber hablado mal, según se dice, del gobernador. De la fuente donde comamos la noticia no pudimos recoger por ahora nombres propios de los probables nuevos funcionarios. Una Bella Jeven Figura en el Robo de La Familia Schoolkonf Viviendo entre los millionarios de Nueva York, metaclasidado con sus famílias, comiendo en sus clubs y bailando en sus hijos, medra una aventura de calibre mental extraordinario que "trabaja" una o dos veces al año y recoge batientes fabulos. La policía está casi convencida de que el robo de que victima Mrs. C. P. Hugo Schoolhopf, fuduro de sus golpes, planteado detenidamente y consumado con masa恼irable. Hace cosa de seis meses llevo a cabo otra hazana parecida, que le produjo alrededor de $300.000 en vallas joyas. Tanto este, como el otro la trocinario, presentan características abolutamente identicas. Todavía se encuesta prezo Mr. Frank Barrett Garman, el amigo intimo de los Schoolkopf, pero las autoridades principián a creer que el ex-artista de vendeville y compañero de vijales del acuadual matrimonio fue solo un instrumento inocente en las manos de la archicriminal. Sabe la policía que esta "reina del hampa" numa se muestra en personas al consumar alguna de las recharias que maquina. Eda demasiado inteligente para arrigarse de este modo. Al dar el golpe todo esto preparado de anteriñan. Cuadante con lugares donde las alfajanes pueden emporrarse o venderse y hasta con diamantitas capaces de varilar la forma y el tallado de las gemas robadas. El robo de las joyas de Schoellhopf ha servido para concentrar la atencion de las autoridades en Broadway, campo de operaciones de los aventureros internacionales, donde hacen vida nocivitas muiles que delembran con sus piedras preciosas, jugadores de pocker que juegan por centenares de miles de dólares y demi-donaines que cubren sus conestados insultantes por su lujo. Y entre, todos es variados elementos, revolotando como mariposa, está la aventurera, la mujer Raffles que cuente con piratas modernos que en vez espadas y mosquites, usan la文化, la distinción y la cortesiana, para el logro de sus negros designios. Carman al comparcer ante el magistrado Sima, no padiendo se plir la fanaza de $50,000 que se exigio por su libertad, fus develuello a la celda que ha estado occupando. Su caso se revistará el 8 de enero. Mr. Thomas Sheridan abogado defensor del preso, ha protestado contra la actuación de las autoridades, declarando que no tienen pruebas suficientes que apoyen la detención de su cliente, en quien tienen confianza ilimitada los esposos Schoolhopf. Parcece que la compañía con que estan aseguradas las joyas robadas ha desistido de ofrecer la recomponda que projectaba ofrecer. Ignorac a que se debe ello. Pude decirse que el caso continua en el misterio.

WITH OUR GIRLS DEAR GIRLS: Wasn't it a nice surprise to hear from Mr. Russell last week? I was first wondering what had become of him. Mr. Russell did a very nice favor for the Wonder Girls last year. He helped us to introduce ourselves to the public at the first dance we gave. Oh, Girls. I think that my Wonder Girls are the nicest, loveliest and best Girls that ever lived. I suppose you are anxious to know why I think all of this. Well last Saturday afternoon during the intermission of the show, "Liza," which we were taking in, one of the girls passed me a small box and when I opened it, there was a darling little wrist watch with a card along side of it saying "With love from the Wonder Girls." Now do you blame me for loving the Girls. It was the nicest surprise I ever had. DEAR GIRLS: Happy New Year to all. I suppose everyone is busy making resolutions, though I find it very hard to keep mine. I am sure all the girls like me love pretty dresses. W care starting a new season at the dressmaking place that I work at and the dresses are wonderful. A lot of lace is going to be used this spring and summer. We sew for two very large establishments, so I have a chance to see some beautiful dresses and every night when I come home. I make a little sketch of the dresses that we sew on during the day. I have quite a little fashion book. So if any one of you want an idea for TRENTON. N. I. Trenton, J. K. Jaffe, Anna Pate apent the weekend with Misses Alice and Myrtle Mayes of 41 West End avenue.

Our club is doing nicely except right now, at this very table, "Buster" is talking so fast, telling "Toonsie" how to cure a stiff neck, that I can hardly compose this letter. Tomorrow we are visiting the club to the theatre party to see "Liza" and we can hardly wait for the time. Next week we will tell you more about it. Love to all the girls. "PEBBLES." DEAR GIRLS: I know it seems very strange that I have been a member of the Wonder Girls Club for over one year and have never written to the column before, but better late than never. I have al- ways read your letters with interest and felt that I could never write any thing worth while so I put it off from time to time and I just gained courage to write these few lines. My name is "Tootsei" and you will hear from me more often. Well, "Lotus Blossom." I had won wonderful time your home for a long time. Day and I hope the near future I will meet the rest of the Jersey girls. Good bye for the present. Love to all. "TOOTSIE." of the work the fraternity is doing, and was unanimously reelected.
