Secretary Davis Writes Of Recent Odd Fellows Decision Says Exclusive Use of Name Was Only Factor in Case— No Property Rights Involved—Relation of White Folks Had Bearing on Case. White Father Leaves Entire Estate to Colored Daughter FOR QUALITY READ The New York Age THE HOME PAPER VOL. 36. No. 27. Secretary Davis Recent Odd F Says Exclusive Use of Name No Property Rights Invol Folks Had Been The recent decision of the Georgia Supreme Court, dissolving an injunction asked for by the Davis-Ingram fashion of Odd Fellows against the group headed by Anthony Graves, and others, giving to both sides equal right to use the name and title, "District Grand Lodge, Grand United Order of Old Fellows," has not affected the property holdings, which are in possession of the Davis-Ingram party. According to a letter from B. J. Davis district district secretary of the District Grand Council, the NALE of Georgia with his body, seceded some months after the jurisdiction of the SAC Committee of Management, controlling the order nationally, there was no question involved except the game of the Order. There was no question concerning the control of the property as the Graves' faction was entering only for right to use the game and title of the Order. After summarizing the present status of the case, with regard to the recent Supreme Court decision, Mr. Davis writes that the largest element entering into this contest was the use of white folks in Georgia. He deduces that a court decision granting exclusive use of the name to either the Davies-Fram or the Graves faction would exclude white folks from use of the same title, and he asserts father, that "The white courts of Georgia will never give any Negro Secrets the exclusive use of the name of any standard secret organization that themselves have an organization of. So the decision was more the interest and protection of the black body to use the words Old Follows than it was a victory for the Graves faction." The letter from Mr. Davis is in full as follows: The Other Side I have just read a news item in your valuable columns with reference to the decision of the Supreme Court in the case of B. S. Ingram et al, versus Graves et al. I know that you said you hadn't heard anything from the Ingram Davis group. In order that the public might know the truth, I ask leave to say in your columns that in 1921 an injunction was brought by the Ingram people against the Graves faction, enjoining them from the exclusion of the name of the Order in the case of the being a Georgia corporation. The lower court made the decision permanent, to which the Graves faction excepted to the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court dissolved the injunction, which permits the Graves faction to have the name in common with the Ingram group. There was no question involved except the name of the Order—no FOUNDERS' DAY AT TUSKEEGEE INST. TO BE OBSERVED APR. 5 Annual Address To Be Delivered By Dr. Mitchell, Univ. of Richmond. (Va.)

White Father Lease Estate to Colo Former West Virginia Sheriff Sole Heir, But Warns H Love and Affection" Hi (Special to The New York Age) Craigson, W. Va.-Legal procedures to set aside the will of Brian Pickens, anticipated since it was published, have been instituted by him, his brother, and a bitter friend in prospect for the large estate left by the precedent to his daughter "maude" in the year 1856. Like once her brief of this, Kanaan's writings and a pictureque figure, dated December last, hequeathing his estate, Garnet Pickens, locally known and originally accepted as his daughter by a colored woman, long a cooperator in his household. The will gave the netire state appraised at $50,000 to Miss Garnet, with directions that she great with love and affection" the lawful widow, Mary E. Pickens (white), who holds legal rights during her life time. It also directed that she "well and comfortably for Coral," the servant her life. Much common-sense advice was contended to the heiress, a beautiful young woman who has since reached her majesty by the document. It directs her to consult with experienced business LAMB'S INTESTINES IN MAN'S STOMACH RESTORE HIS HEALTH 36-Inches Taken from Lamb Now Part of Daniel Conway's Anatomy.

He had three feet of his intestines removed, and three feet of lamb's intestines grafted in its place. Mr. Conway is now the picture of health, and is in Washington visiting his brother. property right was involved. The Graves faction only asked for the use of the name. "At a rehearing of the case, the Supreme Court struck from its decision the suggestion that the Graves people might be entitled to the exclusive use of the name. Inasmuch as they did not ask for that, the court did not grant them the right that they should be a Court's struck from its decision that phrase or paragraph, so that leaves the status in the state as follows: "The Ingram people in possession of all the property, it having been committed to the corporation in advance by a former decision of the Supreme Court, which was not touched upon by the late decision. The only advantage the Graves people gained was the use of the name and permission to meet. They are hopelessly in thirth minority and its organization will not be able to make much headway. So we have a farce and all being treated in the Georgia corporation, the Graves faction will not amount to much. They cannot enjoin us from using the name and we cannot enjoin them. "The largest element that entered into this question is that the granting of the exclusive use of the name Odd Fellows will exclude the white folks, and the white counts of Georgia will given any Negro person a name. The only way to obtain any standard secret organization that they themselves have an organization of. So the decision was more in the interest of the white man's right to use the word Odd Fellows than it was a victory for the Graves faction.

Purcell, counselor and attorney at law, of 417% Broad street, went to New Orleans, LA., to appear on March 16 before the Circuit of Appeal to argue against the appeal made by Charles H. Anderson, of the Anderson & Co. Bankers, seeking to have the decree of bankruptcy made against Anderson on February 7, 1923, by judge R. M. Call of the United States District Court, set aside. Proceedings in bankruptcy were begun against Anderson, the Anderson bank and Richard D. Anderson, on March 16, 1922, and Judge Call sent the case to Anderson, Jones After lengthy and detailed hearings, the referee adjudged the bank and the Andersons as bankrupt, and so reported to the court.

On February 8, the order was officially entered, declaring Anderson and his associate, as well as the bank, as bankrupt.

C.-Margaret B. Buchanan, a white woman from Rich- mond, Va., secretary to Congressman Sarine A. Kendall of Pennsylvania, is in charge of defrauding Mrs. Martha Wakefield, mother of a Negro soldier who died overseas in the country of his country. Mrs. Wakefield, due compensation from the government on account of the death of her son, failed to receive the money due and made complaint to the authorities. As checks had been mailed to her, the checks were sealed, that the checks had been cashed. The white woman, confidential secretary to a congressman, had gotten hold of the checks, forged Mrs. Wakefield's name and collected the money due to the Negro woman for the death of her son, a Negro soldier. Congressman Kendall, one of the wealthiest men in Congress, knew of the money and knowledge of the affair. Two deputy marshals and a 'secret service operative arrested Mrs. Buchanan after calling her into the hallway outside the congressman's office. The checks had been issued by the United States Veterans' Bureau. The woman was taken before United States Commissioner George G. Donald, it mentioned Mrs. Wakefield had formerly been cooking in the Buchanan family and the checks had been mailed to the home address of that family. It was in this manner that the white woman got hold of the checks. She put up as a defense that the Gold Star mother was illiterate and so she had to endorse the checks or be denied it. The money, aggregating $1,600, had not been received by Mrs. Wakefield, its right owner. Mrs. Buchanan is being held for grand jury action. Freeport Ku Klux Sends J. E. Robinson a Letter (Special to The New York Age) Freeport, N. Y.—An aftermath to the Ku Klux Klan demonstration which was made on Lincoln's Birthday by the erection of a flaming cross on a lot opposite the Freeport Auditorium, holding a dinner in honor of the day, is a letter which the hooded group has sent to John E. Robinson of 3 Waverly place, the most active figure in the Nassau County Negro-Get-Together Movement. This letter, signed "K. K. K.-Invincible Order, No.-" attempted to disclaim intention of intimidating the Negro. It declared that the Klan is against the Negro on general principles, but that it recognizes his Americanism. On this point, the letter still. Your race being in its infancy, it should be content to be governed by members of a race which have proven to be your superior." In contradiction to this statement, however, the letter concludes with the paradoxical assertion: "You should have representation in the Village of Freeport, but you are a little ahead of your time." Mr. Robinson, formerly managing editor of the New York Amsterdam News and president of the lyceum at St. Marks M. E. Church, West Sted, New York City, expresses a willingness to meet in public debate any member of the invisible empire, the subject to be "The Negro Race."

He survived and today he occupies a place in the affairs of the country that is the marvel of civilization." The former Regulator continued: "It was my privilege to be your Senator during the World War and during the French invasion, the difference in America who were taking part in that conflict under the Stars and Stripes. Many men came to me for help. Hundreds sought places back of the lines where there was little risk of life; but at no time did a colored man, either for himself or for anyone else, seek the slightest consideration. in the way of dodging his full responsibility. Struggle under a handicap which would have destroyed the courage of many men, gradually, achieving a place of responsibility and influence in the community; always willing and anxious (to do his part when the life and integrity of the nation was threatened."

SITUATION AS TO NURSES IN TRAINING AT HARLEM HOSPITAL Reprinted Charges of Discrimination Along Color Line Are Refuted. If Racial Line Is Drawn It Is Done Voluntarily By the Nurses. The cort to discredit work of the Nurse Training School recently established at Harlem Hospital under ampieces of the authorities of Bellevue, a city institution, by charging that "jim crow" policies are in vogue there and that nurses, graduate as well as probationers, are subjected to lines drawn on a basis of color and race, was given further momentum by a letter published in one of the Harlem newspapers last week, purporting to have been written by Mrs. Ada Jainer of Washington, the nurse, graduate nurse curved the Harlem Hospital for postgraduate work but remained there only a few days. She was subjected to an inoculation of diptheria antitoxin; developing diptheria a few days later, and was taken to Willard Parker Hospital a woman's institution, for treatment. She did not return to the Harlem institution. It is declared by the hospital authorities that Mrs. Jainer made application for postgraduate work, but that afterwards she complained that she was not given facility for study in other lines that were decidedly different from the course she had asked for. At the same time, my the authorities, if. Mrs. Jainer had remained it would have eventually been possible to give her the course for which she expressed the delayed desire. A statement by Mrs. Jainer that she was compelled to feet or more from the door of the nurses' home to the ambulance is categorically denied by the Harlem Hospital officials. Explaining the Situation The charge that the colored nurses aid are often required to work under direction of and take orders from which students or undergraduate nurses is met by the hospital people with the statement that at no time are colored nurses' aids on day duty, and that there are no white nurses at present on night duty, so that colored nurses' aids are only used by students who are in charge of the words at night. Other statements illustrate the placing of subordinate white nurses over colored nurses of higher rank are similarly without basis of fact, declare the hospital officials. About the only substance contained in these statements. The Age was told might be found in the fact that occasionally newcomers to the hospital, unfamiliar with hospital routine or with location of needed supplies, find it necessary to attend certain forms of the attaches who know about these matters and who can be of assistance to the new nurses. As to ignoring of distinctions in grades among the colored members of the school and of the staff, the hospital superintendent declares that this is without basis. The probationers are seated at tables set apart for them, while the graduate nurses of the staff, the head nurses, the supervisory officials, the affiliated nurses and the postgraduate nurses are grouped together in their ranks according to their color. Attaches of the hospital who have long been in the service of course have occupied in a considerable period seats in the dining room at their particular tables. As the tables seat four to six persons, it would hardly be expected that these older employees would be shifted from their accustomed places to provide seats for newcomers. The custom is to place the later-employed at places provided as the need arises. The Reception Rooms. In the matter of separate reception rooms, the explanation is that one room is provided for the regular nurse staff and another for the probationers. There are no white probationers, consequently the users of the one room are all colored. But say the officials, there is no rule prohibiting mingling of the nurses, and it is a frequent occurrence to see white nurses in the probationers' reception room, or colored, graduate nurses in the reception room/for graduate nurses. As a matter of fact, however, some of the nurses are not required to form uniform volition and choice, use the probationers reception room exclusively, giving as a reason that they prefer-being with their own race. As this is their voluntary action, the authorities at the hospital are not responsible for it. As a matter of fact, even Mrs. Joiner states in her letter that white and colored nurses' mingle freely together. It is declared by officials of the institution that the one idea has been to provide an opportunity for colored girls to acquire the nursing profession to open the wards in the hospital. Hospital or nursing staff. As the operating staff has always been composed of white physicians and nurses, it is not possible to change in a day, the operative personnel, but as colored girls become proficient they will be placed in positions of responsibility, according to the hospital authorities.

Apart from its occupancy by the order the auditerium will prove a welcome addition to the limited and inadequate accommédations for public meetings and entertainments now accessible in Harlem.

Hollingsworth Wood by representatives of various 30- cieties and organizations engaged in work for humanity. Mr, Wood is the chairman of the National Urban League the mission of which has been to im- prove the conditions of the Negroes in the ties, and hit work in this capacity kas leon marked by sympathy and um- derstanding. 31 war therélore fitting that the race should have been repre- semed on this occasion to add its meed of tnbute to the general award. Mr. Wood is of Quaker parentage, a graduate of Haverford College, where he was a member and captain of the football tear. His Qual anocstry acd football experience have readered hira tenacioui in his convictions of duty and always anxious to make = goal for humanity. He is a lawyer by profession and his service has never been lacking to those in need of friendly aid. The tribute recently paid him was well de- served and well timed. Current religious controversies ven: filated in the daily newspapers moves the Cincinnati Unioe to the fotlowing comment : Our white Protestants seem for sev- eral months to be enjoying 2 terrible tow among themselves as to the authen ticity of the Scriptures, the immacu: late conception and other vital jssiies of Ghristan doctrine. The Catholics mean: while, are marching solidly under the banner of their faith, the Jews till cling to the vital tenets of Hebrewism, while us colored folk are really not bothered about anything but a good time in this world and the next. The whites have shown most artistic ability in hand- Ting. teligion. Most of their missionary work is done in rich territory, where the ignorant native is given Chrimianity in exchange for valuable products and land. Thus in Africa Christia@ity abounds and the whites are safely entrenched with the Bible far the credulous and the cannon for the obstreperous, Were there sincerity in the desire for spread- Hing teat Christianity then certain tc tions of America would receive, as it deserves, ‘aid needs an army’ af teal missionaries, Africa, Asia, Japan, Ch:na jcould and should do without them for a Hew years. Charity, begins at home. "This is the superficial aspect a3 of ‘the situation summed up by an interested observer, Grristianity is too often util- ized as a cloak to cover the expleitation of the weak by che strong. What is needed is the practice-of seal Christian ity in the relations of mankind. During the fast session of Congress the newspapers of the couatry had a great deal ta say about the “lame duchs.” as those members who failed of reelee-| tina were calied, many of whom were finally provided with fat offices to fa'l ints by a sympathetic adcsinictzatinn, The following item from the Columba, S.C, Southern Indicator recalls the experience of those Negro members of Congress. who were placéd om the re- tired list: Ex-Congressman George W.

TEE NEW YORK AGE (Sma REVS E By James Welden’Johaoin, Coneriputing' Béiver. The Louisiana case against the Klansmen has fallen down. The Grand Jury failed to return a single indictment. The State at the open hearing examined one hundred and thirty-nine’ wit- nesses. established the identity of four members of the mob and of approximately thirty other men, all of them Klansmen, as mem- ‘bers of other mobs, State's Attorney General Coco felt. confident that the State had made out ‘its case.. However, the result was as might have been expected, When it was known three weeks ago that out of the VEnire of.twenty there were ten of them known as Klansmen, five as Klan sympathizers and five as possible neu- trals, it might have been concluded that the outcome would be a whitewash for the Ku Klux. - But the situation is more serious than mere failure to punish the men guilty ef the terrible crimes committed at Bastrop... It is a demonstration of a super and invisible government at work. The actual government of Louiviant is paralyzed. The courts aré un- able to function. ‘ It is an eminent question as to how much of this super-gov- ernment can be stood before the state governments will be actually, and absolutely crushed under its weight. | THE SOUTHERN PARADOX. ‘Thete is a paradox in the South which js continually arisin, to baffle some people. “This paradox centers around the statemen so often proclaimed by Southemn white people to the effect tha they are the Negro’s best friends and love hint better than anybod; else does. This statement becomes a paradox in view of the gen eral sort of treatment that Negroes receive in the South. Wha makes it 2 paradox and puzzling is that in a narrow and ver) limited way the statement is true, and the frequent demonstration: of its truth are what make the whole situation so baffling to a grea many people. An analysis of the matter shows that Southern white peopl do love and are the best friends of certain individual Negroes generally Negroes who accept a sort of vassalage. But these same white people have little or no regard for Negroes as a race. It is out of these conflicting attitudes that the paradox arises, Bu! it does not take much thought to sce that a Souhern white man may treat one or two or a half dozen Negroes with the greates! consideration,and yet be opposed to any progress or development on the part of the race. : We remember some years ago, after we had written a rather scathing article zbout Ben Tillman and his anti-Negro antics in the Senate, we received a letter of mild protest from a colored man in South Carolina who asked if we knew that Ben Tillman employed a colored man as the overseer of his great plantation and trusted him with all of the business related thereto. We replied that we did not know that Mr, Tillman hired a colored overseer, but that if he hired a dozen coloted overseers.and placed ‘in them the utmost confidence, and if he hired a thousand colored laborers on his plantation and treated them well, it would not over- balance the fact that as a member of the United States Senate he was using all of his power to keep the Negro as a race from being treated as American citizens. . The aort of defense that the South Carolina’ colored man put up for Tillman is often advanced by white men themselves. We remember when we appeared hefore the House Committee on the census a couple of years ago in order to place before the Com- mittee.certain facts about disfranchisement, Mr. Clark, a member of Congress from Florida, who was very bitter on the whole sub- ject, thought he was balancing his bitter opposition to allowing the Negro the right to vote by making the following statement before the Committee. We quote the following sentences from Mr. Clark's testimony: ‘They might just as well make up their minds tat we are not going to have Negro domination in Florida. could not make it any plainer, but that is a fact. Tam saying that on my own responsibility, not represeating anyhody but myself, though I think I represcat my people, and I know their thoughts are along that line. I am today taking care of an old Negro in Alabama, and I send him checks regularly. He was my father's body servant in the Confederate Army, and came frome with him when he came home to die, Iam supporting him today. ‘These Negroes (representatives of the N. A. A.C. P.) are not support- ing anybody hike that. They do not understand that sort of sentiment. For chat sort of Negro we have the highest respect and the greatest consideration, But these Negro men are fussing, inciting violence, these agitators and propagandists, and are trying to stir up their people and bring trouble on them. They are getting along finely down in my country, and the relations are all right and smooth, and there is no complaint.” . 2 Sometimes this cort ef a paradoxical attitude is taken by whole! Southers communities and sometimes by the entire South. For sample, we Nave the enthusiastic and sentimental project to erect 3 monmment in Wa:lington to the “Black Mammy.” an ac- ion which, as laudable as it might be in itseli—although that] s not any opinion of ours—would be absurd if not ludricrous in} he face of the sort of treatment that the South gives to the child- en of the “Black Mammy.” ! The New York newspapers last Saturday morning carried a]! fispatch from Jackson, Miss., which is another illustration of this} yaradox, a sort of illustration which occuss every now and then} n the South. This dispatch of March 16 reads as follows: “Governor Lee M. Russell issued a proclamation today ordering a surpension~pf pubile rusiness in the capital building tomorrow during the funeral hour of "Uncle Lewis" Mahoney. for twenty-fire years one of the Negro porters at the State House./-"Lincle Lewis" went violently insane yesterday and died this morning.” 3 Now, “Uncle Lewis” may have been a very examplary old entleman and an efficient porter, and most likely was due all the onsideration and respect that the authorities at“ the capitol off; fississippi paid him, and we do not begrudge’ him one iota of the] jonors shown him. But what we will object to will be the]t rhite people of Mississippi pointing to the action taken at the]? eath of “Uncle Lewis” as proof that they love the Negro better |° han anybody else does and are his best friends, If they closed p all. official business and put the flags on the Capitol itself at alf mast for every faithful “Uncle Lewis” that died ‘in Mississippi bt the next one hundred years, it would not weigh a. feather's ‘eight in the balance againat the humiliating discriminations, dis- ‘anchisement, unfair apportionment of school funds, lynchings and uroings,.and the general policy of oppression which is practiced gainst Negroes of Mississippi. ©. 9. ‘GREAT PUGILISTIC TUTORS. . It is well known that some of the greatest glediators in the prize-fighting areng’ have been and are Negroes.. from. the very beginning of pugilism there have been colored men who have demonstrated the very highest qualities of physical stamina -and heating. quill. The groavest otars Of the prize ring connet de named tenet wediaslag Jackaon, Dixon, Wolcott, Johnson, Langford, Jeanette, McVey and Gang. The majerity of the experts om sports would thost probably agree that the man in whom’ al of the best qualitits of the gladiator of the prize ring were assembled in the higtfbat degree was Joe Gans. . As generally known ap are the above facts, it is not so gen- erally known that many of the greatest tutors aqd coaches of pugilists, men who have trained and developed many of the great- est fighters of the white race. were colored men. The greatest of all these coaches is, of couse, Bob Armatrong, who perhaps knows mote about the technique and strategy of the prize ring than any man living. Then, in former days there was Gedfrey of Boston, who instructed a great many men in the art of self-defense. And now comes the. announcement that Tex Rickard has decided to have Firpo, the Argentinian prise fighter, taken in hand and taught the fine points of boxing by Sam Langford. Firpo fo. giant in strengt and a whirlwind fighter, but in order to be made available against the more seasoned and experienced men in the ring-and to be qualified as a big drawing card and money- getter, Ne will have to be taught, and Tex Rickard has picked a Negro for his teacher. * APRAMERICAN POETS. - Without apology we excerpt the following from “The Book of American Negro Poetry": | : Although Dunbar is the most outstanding figure in literature among the Aframericans of the United States, he does not stand alone among the Aframericans of the whole Western world, There arc Placido and Manzano in Cuba; Vieux and Durand in Haiti, Machado de Assis in Brazil; Leon Laviaus in Martinique, and others still that might be mentioned, who stand on a plane with jor even above Dunbar. Placido and Machado de Assis rank as great in the literatures of their respective countries without any qualifications whatever. They are world. figures in the literature ‘of the Latin languages: Michedo de Assis is somewhat handi- capped in this respect by having as his tongue and medium the lesser known Portuguese, but Placido, writing in the language of Spain, Mexico, Cuba and of almost the whole of South America, in universally known. His works have deen republished in the original in Spain, Mexico and in most of the Latin-American coum tries: several editions have been published in the United States; translations of his works have been made into French and Gernian. + Placido is in some respects the greatest of all the Cuban.poets. In sheer genius and the fire of inspiration be surpasses even the more finished Heredia. . . Placido was born in Habana in 1809, The first months of his life were passed in a foundling asylum; indeed, his real name, Gabriel d elz Concepcion Valdes, was in honor of its founder. . . . His early life was a struggle against poverty; his youth and manhood was a struggle for Cuban inde- pendence. . . . In his short but eventful life he turned out work which bulks more than six hundred pages. . . . ; In considering the Aframerican poets of the Latin languages I am impelled to think that, as up to this time the colored poets of greater universality have come out of the Latin-American coun- tries rather than out of the United States, they will continue to do so for a good many years: The reason for this I hinted at in the first part of this preface. The colored poet in the United States labors within limitations which he cannot easily pass over. He is always on the defensive or offensive. The pressure upon him to be propagandic is well-nigh irresistible. These conditions are suf- focating to breadth and to real art in poetry. , In addition he labors under the handicap of finding culture not entirely coloriess in the United States. On the other hand, the colored poet of Latin- America can voice the national spirit without any reservations. And he will be rewarded without any reservations, whether it be 0 place him among the great or declare him the greatest. So I think it probable that the first world-acknowledged Af- american poet will come out of Latin-America. Over against this rrobability. of course, is the great advantage possessed by the col- sred poet in the United States of writing in the world conquering English language. KEEPING THE SOUTH SOLID In the current number of Collier’ Heckly ghere appears an article by 4 country editor of North Carolina, wh announces that he dares speak for the younger generation of the South. This editor whose name is W. O. Saunders publishes a weekly paper at Elizabeth City, N.C. Measured by the rooted standards of the whice South Mr. Saund- ers would be styled broad-minded an¢ progressive. He thinks that. the South is bored by its own solidarity and tired of being caled solid, but “its politica life is. still Jargely influenced by old ‘mea. many of whom were early maimed fn emind ad spirit, Sopelessly embittered by a dover + * He further admits at Ths most cisister influence is the Ika King Kian, the extent of which or- Banization mo one exsctly knows.” Having thus indicated the extent of ie. Saunders’ broad-mindedness and progressiveness, it will prepare us to hear, even if it strains belief, that the South “isn': as solid as it appears to be.” He says on this point: Even among the older heats I ean point you to leaders of industry. and finance. wha veeiferously proclaim their Democracy in municipal, county and state clections and quietly vote for Republican “protection” in a setional election. And the South generally today ix stirred by a spirit of revolt and independence which manifests it- acHf in countless splits and factions in the Democratic. party .itsetf. Notwithwanding this’ admission of Democratic disintegration, the North Carolina editor deals this damper t0 the aspirations of the “Lilywhite” Re- publicans. who hoped to profit there- by. He saps: The Republican. party can never break the Solid South so long as the race issue lives, because the Repub- ican party bas $0 far committed itself to the Negro that it cannot break with him now. The Republicans in the South may declare themselves “Lily White," bat ‘the Republicans in the North’ do mot dare;.they have got to goddle the Negro to held be Negra tote and bave g little sotidarity of thefr own: aed fhe Negro, vote. mast be paid for with offices. The Negro smows exactly whet he wants. in_polie Berea eeae bolts. ae was in several East? een States in the cecent November election ay ‘Thi-imvolutary Unbute ty the political tagacity of the Negroes in the Nort from such a source is to be viewed with suspicion. Mr. Saunders’ object is un: doubtedly to magnify the importance o the Negro vote in the North, thus creat. ing jeatousy and confusion in Repub: [ican ranies and maning its seperatios not only possible but permancnt. Coincident with this auempt at politi- cal strategy from North Carolina, has been the setting adrift of certain straws of Southern expresgion edfculated co mollify of cajole racial sentiment favor: able to the South First among these straws was the “Mammy monument” project, started by the Daughters of the of the Confederacy with the approval Jof Congress, for the erection of a me- morial to the black mammies of the ‘South at Washington, D.C. Then came the South Carolina legislature with a Proposition to pension those ‘Negroes who served their masters, while the lat- ter were fighting for the Confederacy. Unusual publicity was given in the news- paper accounts to the funeral of a faith- {ul black employee. in a Southern city, which was attended mot only by his white employer, but by the city off cals and best white chitens. Special Bewspaper publicity thes been given to the action of ex-Secretary of the Treas- ury McAdoo, when as Director of Rall- roads during the Worlé War, he main- tained the principle of equal wages for black and white railtéed employees. The fact that Mr. McAdoo is one of the Heading candidates for the Deno cartic gominatien for the Presidency may have nothing at all to do with the revival of this creditable attitude on his pare. ‘These various straws, taken- in con nection with Mr. Saunders’ contention that “the South is all dressed up for vdventute, but hes no; inviting place to ro.” would indicate that the South is rounting on thé division of the Negro rote as a preliminary to this adventure. The South has invited this divishon io ts municipal elections, both for city Wicials and for the ise of .improve- ment bondé: Now it looksgps if it would carry the principle a step furth- T and apply it to State, (Cotgressiona! ad Vresidentjal elections, The Negro| Bs always beem responsive to fair treat- weit in other lines, and if a fair deal n politica in offered him, tbe time is wopitios form Saterday, Marck 24, 1923, a Keeping the Seats solid requizes tie aesettae efforts, of the demagogse ig creating a begy of the Negro.

Mackenzie I irrespective of connection, whether it be as a patron or that of an employee, there is one thing about the Pullman Company which commands your admiration and praise; and that is, their system of standardization and economy. It is a business axiom of theirs that all articles used in the operation of their service must be of uniform quality and quantity; likewise, an economical principle that nothing should be thrown away which can be made of use. When an article gets below the standard of its original use it is utilized in some other way or department. For instance; the whisk-broom—one of the working tools of the porter. When that article begins to get worn, a black border is painted around the handle so there will be no mistake in using it for any other purpose and it is used as a floor broom to collect ashes and burnt matches from the smoking room floor. Going into our car the other morning, we paused by the locker where the cleaning implements are kept and we heard this lamination coming from one of these newly converted whisk brooms: At last I have reached the floor; Shortly, and I shall be no more. A companion for the duetpan and mop. That certainly was a low-down drop. It really hurts my pride. Having with such companions to ride; It nearly caused me to fall apart. To chink I am no more the porter's pard. Now when he for me finds use. It shall be in a state of abuse. If he would only treat me kind. Perhaps, I wouldn't mind. But why should I feel this way? Even he shall pass some day. I do not care how soon I go. A Floor Broom! that's too low. The New York Age Bureau 601 W. Street, N. W. Miss Joanette Carter, Mangr. Washington, D.

WITH OUR GIRLS THE NEW YORK AGE DEAR GIRLS AND ATALANTA: It was agreed upon to hold a meeting on the third Saturday of each month. Now, I want to say that we did hold meetings at the "Y" until a few months ago. But if the others didn't attend meetings what was the use of the girls of Newark holding meetings for them? "Atalanta," if you and "Bobbie" came, you must have come after six-thirty. The "Y" gave us the privilege of holding meetings in one of their rooms. "Red" was the only Plainfield girl, that ever attended any of those meetings. You never came to any of the socials that we gave, therefore we have taken it for granted that you are no longer intreated in the Mystery Girls. As for new officers, I wish to say that "Laughter" is president. I resigned that office a month ago because I felt a year was long enough to serve, although it would have been two years in April. When we first organized "Wes" was elected vice-president, and she has never attended a meeting. "Red" was our secretary, and was faithful for awhile. It is true that the Mystery-Girls are supposed to take in all the girls of New Jersey, but all the girls haven't helped us, have they? We can't make you accept our invitation of friendship if you don't want it. "Kid Palmer," you have not told the truth. Our meetings are not excu- East Lynn, Mass.

Banks, violinist, of Lynn, accompanied by Mrs. Leon Marshall was well received, Mr. Gibbs spoke of the work of the Boston Urban League of which he is secretary. Mayor Hartland A. McPhettes spoke at some length and in a very commendable way. He urged the importance of organization, the wisdom of voting, and earnestly begged that anything that the colored people wanted done, or adjusted, or felt that they were not getting a square deal, to come to him at City Hall and he would do all that he could to make things pleasant and satisfactory. In regard to securing employment for men and positions for women, he would do all he could in that direction. He commended the people for having such an organization as the Forum; and asked to be invited again, and suggested that they invite the other members of the council to speak at some of their meetings. The program was presented by Miss Bernise Grandison. The following program of the Forum under the auspices of the Lynn Association for the Advancement of Colored People was rendered; violin solo, Miss Alice Fowler, with Miss Mildred Fowler accompanist; piano solo, Miss J. Taylor; Dr. Achong of Boston was the speaker, song "Some Essentials in the Conservation of Health." The program was presented by Wim. Mitchell Dr. Otway of Boston will speak Sunday, March 15.

The installation address was delivered by U. G. Burkhead, the Mainline sub-district superintendent. The superintendent, Mrs. Harris, then installed officers. The closing charge was given by the pastor, Rev J. H. Massey. This item was overlooked and is now being printed for benefit of patrons. The evening of October 28, 1922, was an occasion of joy for Mr. and Mrs. Sidney Wells of Mt. Pleasant, Pa. who celebrated their fourteenth wedding anniversary.

Kid Roux Defeats Jack Brown at Hamilton, O. Hamilton, D--KK Rouss, 135 pounds, was the winner over Jack Brown of Chicago in the first mixed bout held here in recent years at the Lenox Athletic Club on Wednesday night, March 14. Rouss, who is an aspirant of the light-wright championship, was the winner of the bout by a narrow margin. Roux started the bout at fast pace, but was slowed up after the first few rounds, and had his opponent been a hard hitter the colored fighter would have been knocked out. From the tenth to the twelfth round. Roux came back strong, which gave him a slight margin over Bognum. Kid Rhodes, hailed by his manager as the coming colored bantamweight champion, fought a listless six round draw with Kid Palmer. Neither fighter showed any desire for mixing it in the early rounds, but continual warning from the referee made them work harder. At the finish of the fight neither showed superiority over the other and the host was called a draw: Both Room and Rhodes are leaving for New York soon and will be seen in action at the East in the near future.

According to Purcell's version, Mr. Logan, who is treasurer of Tuskegee Institute, came to Jacksonville on January 12, 1923, for the purpose of trying to adjust the claim of the Business League against Charles H. Anderson. After declining several requests to meet in conference with Logan, Anderson, and the petitioners in bankruptcy, Mr. Purcell finally consented to ascade to Mr. Logan's request and met the group at offices of the North Carolina Mutual Insurance Co. Bankers, the particular item charged being the sale to the bank of capital stock of the United Investment Corporation to the amount of $95,300. When this case came to trial in the Duval County Court, the State Controller was present and testified that he had advised Anderson to form a corporation for the purpose of taking over the real estate of the bank; that he insured stock to be sold to others for cash; that Mr. Logan's request and met the group at offices of the North Carolina Mutual Insurance Co. After a long consultation, according to Mr. Purcell, an agreement was finally drawn up and signed by Charles H. Anderson, under date of January 12, 1923, in which he agreed to deliver deeds to all real property owned by himself individually and, by the bank, in trust for benefit of the depositors of the Anderson bank. Mr. Purcell states that after this agreement was reached he was instructed to prepare the necessary papers to carry out terms of the agreement, which was done. A few days later he alleges that Charles II Anderson came to his office and asked for the papers, with permission to take them to his lawyers, which was granted. A couple of days later Attorney Purcell charges that Anderson returned five papers, but that they contained many changes, altering the force and effect of the agreement. These changes, said Mr. Purcell, he refused to consider. At this point, declares the lawyer, it became necessary for him to order the bankrupt banker out of his office, as he alleges that Mr. Anderson suggested to him that a fee of $1,000 would be paid if Purcell would have his clients sign the agreement which Anderson presented. Said Mr. Purcell: "At no time have I promised Chas. H. Anderson or anybody else that for consideration of $2,000 I would dismiss this case. No man can say that during my practice in all of the courts of this county for the past thirty-three years that I have ever requested or accepted any consideration whatever to abandon my clients." With reference to the criminal charge brought against Charles H. Anderson, Mr. Purcell states that it was not a charge of embezzlement, but embraced charges of the unlawful investment of funds of the form of Anderson & Co.

When we had planned socials and they were given, I never saw you. "Kid Palmer," or any of the Plainfield girls, and we let you know about it. I'm sorry to say but "Kid Palmer" has misinformed you as to the "secret" meetings being held. We are not a secret order, so therefore our meetings are not secret.

PURCELL (Continued from First Page) tion of the bank with racial enterprises in Jacksonville, Counselor Puffell took up the matter with the State Comptroller, writing him under date of December 24, as follows: "The failure of this bank is a great shock, not that a bank has failed, because we have failures daily, but on account of the fact its failure throws a damper on the confidence of the people towards all colored enterprises." Following the appointment of a temporary receiver, Anderson was given time to make it possible, and according to the records, it alleged that Anderson, with three others who were indebted to the bank, conferred with the Comptroller at Tallahassee, and arranged for the organizing of a bank which was to take over the assets and liabilities of the Anderson & Co. Bank, the depositors of which were to agree to transfer their claims to the new banking company in consideration of a certificate for the amount due them, to be paid in installments, in two years, without interest. This new bank was finally chartered under the name of the Florida State Bank, but after an extended period of controversy, during which period Attorney Puscelli, alleged that the proposed bank was only a scheme to defraud the depositors, the Comptroller refused to issue a certificate to do business to Anderson for the Florida State Bank. During this period, the Anderson & Co. Bank continued in the hands of a temporary receiver, and it was alleged by Purcell that the assets of the bank were being disposed of, either by direct sale or through lawsuits, through Anderson and his friends, so on March 1. Attorney Purcell wrote the Comproller, requesting the appointment of a permanent receiver. On March 6, this request was granted and the United States Trust and Savings Bank of Jacksonville was named as permanent receiver of the Anderson bank holdings. The appointment was confirmed, on March 11 by the Circuit Court of Duval Co. Denies He Wanted $2,000 Referring to the charge made by Charles H. Anderson that Attorney Purcell was sore because of a failure to secure from Anderson payment of the sum of $2,000 in consideration of which Purcell was to have secured dismissal of the charges against Anderson, Mr. Purcell told of having had to order Anderson from his office in connection with negotiations that were being conducted in behalf of the National Negro Business League, of which Anderson had formerly been treasurer, and to which he was alleged to be indebted in the sum of several thousand dollars, constituting an alleged shortage in his accounts as "When You Feel the Need" Don't daze yourself with coffee, tea and drugs.

The court dismissed the charge against Anderson, saying he had violated the law, had no criminal intent.

The water of this article and recent, and incidentally among other things, that intelligent people do not believe in a material bell, a material brace, or universal bodily incarnation. The reporters of these words, perhaps to "bowl down" (or to boil over) things dropped the words "matter" and the word "bodily" and reported: "It does not boil, no heaven, no reurrection." That is just as it we should say: "There is no golden moon" and some fellow would report: "Pachira says there is no moon." Most of the intelligent and all of the younger preachers we know, say also that these things are not material, but that they are spiritual. So we did not regard ourselves as giving out any new information. In the last twenty years we have heard, we suppose, thousands of ministers use these terms, and none of the intelligent ones ever spoke of a fire-and-brimstone hell or a golden-streeted heaven, except as figures of speech.

Commonwealth Is Swamped In Two Games By Loendi; Pittsburgers Are Champs Commonwealth Is Swamped In Two Games By Loendi; Pittsburgers Are Champs Rivalry Between Two Leading Colored Basketball Teams Settled By Games Played on Each Team's Home Court in Pittsburgh and New York. (By W, E. CLARK). All doubt as to which team is colored champions of the world was dispelled on Friday night, March 16, and the following Sunday night, when the Loendi Five of Pittsburgh won overwhelming victories over the Commonwealth Big Five of this city. The first game was played in Pittsburgh and was won by a score of 51-27. The latter game, played at the Commonwealth Casino here, was won by a score of 43-33. About six years ago the Pittsburgh team annexed the title, "Colored Champions of the World," and immediately New York teams, which consider themselves the best in the country, issued challenges to the Pittsburghers. They have been challenging each year since, but have not been successful in winning from the Loendi's, although they have come close to it on several occasions. This year the Commonwealth team, with a record of ninety games played, and only about fifteen lost, had raised new hopes in the breaches of the basketball fans of Harlem. Up to the Celtic game a few weeks ago, experts rated the team above that of any colored team in the country, but an unaccountable slump followed this game, and the team seems to have lost much of its confidence and speed. The Celtics, who was present, gave the local team a lecturer, and they fought the second half much harder than before. Several fouls and three field goals by Fial brought the score up to within five points of their opponents, but the score did not remain close long, for Sessoms again got away and shot several goals, and other goals by Posey and Betts again gave Loendi a safe margin. During the last few minutes of play, the winning team killed as much time as possible by passing the ball around without attempting to shoot. The final score of the game was 43-33. The game was rough and fast throughout. Frank Forbes, who likes nothing better than a rough game, was the best player for the local team, while Sessoms and Young were the stars for the The Loendi team, nevertheless, performed an unusual feat, in that although all five its members are veterans of more than five years each on the court, the team played a faster game, and more scientific, than New Yorkers ever saw them play before. In the game at the Commonwealth on Sunday night, Loendi took the lead from the first, and scored nine field goals to one by the Commonwealth. A feature of this half was three straight field goals by Sessions, who played all around Slocum. Forbes, who played Poppy, seemed to be the only member of the local team playing up to standard. The score at the end of the first half was 23-8 in favor of the Loendi team. Shuffle Along Co. No. 3 is in their second week at the Lafayette doing big business. It is reported that they go to the Prospect Theatre in the Bronx after finishing this date. The '7-11' show goes in to rehearsing this week. They expect to have a summer run in this city. The Debutantes Follies expects to be the best show that has been staged by society's local talent. A nice picture was received by the C. V. B.

AT THE LINCOLN THEATRE A cast of exceptional excellence even for a de Mille production, was assembled by William de Mille for his late Paramount picture production, "The World's Applause." featuring Bee Daniels and Lewis Stone, which will be shown at the Lincoln Theatre, this week. This is a delightful picture with a timely theme, produced according to the most este de Mille standards. The masterpiece case is assembled for the picture one of the best in his successful career as a motion picture director. The supporting roles are filled by such well-known players as Adolphe Menjou, Winter Hall, Brandon Hurst, Bernice Frank, Maym Kelso, George Kuwa and James Neill. Will Marion Cook at the Lafayette Theatre Will Marion Cook, one of the best known composers and musicians of the race, will make his first public appearance in New York since his return from Europe at the Lafayette Theatre the week of March 26. He will present his all-star entertainers, including his incomparable orchestra. His show also includes a number of bewitching and talented singers and dancers, and the class of entertainment he will offer can hardly be missed in the city. Not only will Harlemettes entertain large numbers to welcome Cook's return home, but friends and music lovers from other sections of the city will also visit the Lafayette in large numbers next week. "Liza" Concert, March 25, At Renaissance Casino One of the most talked of dances of the season is being staged at the Renaissance Casino Sunday night, March 25. The affair is being staged by Macro Pinkard, composer of the song, "Liza," and other lyrics in the Broadway success by the same name. Numerous stars, including Rodolph Valentino and Al Jolson have promised to be present, and the "Honey Girls" of the "Liza" company will be there.

Odd Fellows Stage Boxing Benefit at Madison Square One of the biggest colored boxing benefits of the season is being staged at Madison Square Garden on April 6, for the benefit of the Odd Fellows building fund of Staten Island. The show is being staged by M. McLevy of the Madison Square Garden. The committee include the District Grand Master, Harry J. Edwards and J. C. Twine of Staten Island. the Celtics, who was present, gave the local team a lecturer, and they fought the second half much harder than before. Several fouls and three field goals by Fial brought the score up to within five points of their opponents, but the score did not remain close long, for Sessions again got away and shot several goals, and other goals by Posey and Betts again gave Loendi a safe margin. During the last few minutes of play, the winning team killed as much time as possible by passing the ball around without attempting to shoot. The final score of the game was 43.33. The game was rough and fast throughout. Frank Forbes, who likes nothing better than a rough game, was the best player for the local team, while Sessions and Young were the stars for the Pittsburghers. The crowd which witnessed the game has only been surpassed this season by that which attended the Celtic game. The summary was as follows: Commonwealth (33) Loendi (41) Fial R. F. Posey Jenkins L. F. Ricks Slocum Sessoms Hubbard R. G. Betts Forbes L. G. Young Field goals—Commonwealth's: Fial 4. Forbes 2, Jenkins 1 and Hubbard 1; Loendi: Sessoms 7, Ricks 5, Betta 3.

NEW COLORED TRACK STARS UNCOVERED IN FINAL INDOOR MEET Several new colored high school tracers men came into prominence at the last indoor meet of the season, held under the auspices of the Princeton Club of New York at the 22nd Regiment armory on Saturday night, March 17. Stuveyant High School was the winner of the point trophy largely through the efforts of Hernandez, a colored member of the relay team. On the previous Saturday Hernandez competed as a notice, for the first time, in the 300-yard race. He won by such good time that the Stuveyant coach immediately put him on the graduating class relay team. In the six-lap relay race on Saturday, Hernandez ran as anchor man, and although his team was behind when, he started, he forced to the front and won by five yards, winning individual cups for each member of the team. Cunningham of De Witt Clinton another new comer, was the winner of the first heat in the 300-yard novice race, but was boxed in the final heat, winning second place. With Summons, a high jumper of De Witt Clinton, it appears that the fame won by Figuero, Cook and Handy last year will be continued this year. JUNIOR SPORTS RECORD (By JAMES, WARD) At St. Mark's Hall on March 15, the fast St. Mark's Flashes nosed out the St. C. Red and Black Machine 34-32. This game was furious all the way through, bt St. Marks managed to hold their lead. The victors led at half time 17-14. In the preliminary game the St. Marks Jr. Girls met the St. Benedict Girls and defended them to the overwhelming score of 27-2. The score at half time was 23-2 with the downtown girls on the short and them. These girls have fine ability and with proper coaching should later develop into a faster team to have a say about the championship. The Garcia sisters, Edith and Alma, together with Dorothy Scott, played exceptional parts in the victory.

Morehouse Defeats' Clark University in First Base-Ball Game of the Season Atlanta, GA. - On March 10, the Morehouse Tigers opened its Laskah season with a 17-0 victory over the Clark University team. Much interest was attached to this game as it brought back the appearance of "Big Bud Bryant" of Morehouse', who for two years has gathered up enough speed and fight to hold his opponents for five innings without a hit. Credit for the victory is not due any one player as the entire Morehouse team showed mid-season form. But the outstanding features of the game were the fielding of Fykes of Cork, and Rogers of Morehouse, the batting of the entire Tiger team, and the pitching of Bryant; and Hartley of Morehouse. Morehouse Baseball Nine Wins From Morris Brown Atlanta, Ga. Before a large and enthusiastic crowd of spectators, the Morrison Tigers defeated Morris Brown in a well played baseball game he on Saturday, March 12. Both teams showed midseason form and gave an exhibition of real baseball. Morrison held the lead throughout the entire game, Morris Brown played a good top half game. Clark doing mound duty with Maxwell on the receiving end proved too much for the Purple and Black Machine. The final score was 0-3 for the Tigers. McTigue Awarded Decision Over Battling Siki, But Black Fighter Keeps Title English Experts Declare Fight Was at Catchweights, Consequently Championship Title Was Not at Stake —McTigue Kept Away From Sikd. (Special to The New York Post) Dublin, Ireland—Battling Skii, who won the light heavyweight championship of the world from George Carpenter in Paris last fall, was defeated by Mike McTigue in a twenty-round bout here on St. Patrick's Day. The fight was tame and was witnessed by only 1500 people. McTigue, a clever boxer, who has fought all over the United States and Canada, outpointed the Senegalese fighter and kept out of reach of many of Skii's dangerous punches. During the early rounds of the fight Skii tried many times with long and dangerous right and left swings, but few of them landed. McTigue used a left jab on the colored fighter throughout the bout and in the clinches seemed to get in the better blows. In the eleventh round the first blood was drawn by Skii, when a slight gash was made on the Irishman's forehead. In the twelfth round the French fighter tried hard to get in a knockout punch, but McTigue's ability to side A. & T. Wins First Base Ball Game of the Season Greenbore, N.

Both teams played well; but it was evident at the outset that A. & T. had the edge on the visitors. The latter started off by scoring two runs after two were out in the first inning, but did not hold the lead long. A. & T. soon gained the lead by hitting the opposing pitcher hard, and kept it.

White Second Recital By Harlem Orchestra Is Interesting Director Anderson Handicapped By Changing Personnel, But Performance Indicates the Possibility of Eventual Advance to Symphonic Proportions. qualifying to observe an increase in the number of listeners at the annual recital of the Harlem Orchestra, the new organization of col- organizationalists, conducted by E. Gilbert Anderson, which is presenting a symphonic proportions once a month during five months. The recital, on Sunday afternoon, February 18, here a promise which constituted by this last effort. For the first time, as has been said, its effort is being made by Negro musicians to compose the scope of that reaches into the higher realms of artistic endeavor. For Director Anderson and his associates deserve the strongest commen- could have the support of all who have at heart race artistic develop- welcome and healthy sign that there can be gotten together a group though it may be in numbers, who are willing to give the time necessary to such a movement—a movement which must find its reward investment, for there is no financial increment to be gained through such under these conditions, keeping in mind that the colored musician, economic necessity, is restricted in his freedom of action by the his engagement book, it is not surprising that Director Anderson presents the same ensemble in two successive engagements. according to information received Sunday afternoon, some of the musicians making up the orchestra were not secured until the day before, and some of the music played was not seen by them until actually on the platform until putting the orchestra on the stage instead of the floor was a situation. In this connection, however, the better sound projection thus secured emphasize tonal discrepancies in some of the choirs. This applied to the wood wind and to the cornetis, and obtained throughout the first program. A low pitched piano contributed also to this condition. As a intermission, this defect was not discoverable and there was in consequence a decided improvement in the quality of tone produced. For this second recital, Conductor Anderson presented a program of considerably more weight than was given last month. Two numbers used in the first recital were repeated, i.e., the first movement of Beethoven's Symphony No. 1 in C major, opus 21, to which was added the second movement (conductor) and Brahms's Hungarian Dance, No. 5. Other numbers in the first part of the program included the sonorous march from Verdi's "Aida," a selection from Pelle "Bohemian Girl," and the overture from Mozart's "Marriage of Elisabeth." The second part, opening with Mendelssohn's Priest's March from "Athalia," and closing with the popular and exciting "Post and Pendant" overture, by Suppe, presented the soloist of the afternoon, Joseph Edward Lymas, violinist, the orchestra's concert master. Mr. Lymas played "Adoration" by Borowski, and the familiar and popular "Zegumerweisen." Sarasate's group of sprightly Gypsy aits. Mr. Lymas showed temperament of unusual degree, producing a tone that was colorful and alluring. But his attack at times was too rough and there was too much slurring in his bowing of rapid passages. The violinist gave evidence of unusual talent and there is little excuse for sloven performance when it is possible to do better. The accompaniments were played by A. Harrington Gibba. Mr. Anderson gave an interesting reading of the program, but his best efforts were in the Brahm's number and the Suppe overture. There was more clarity in interpretation, more flexibility in attack, a greater validity in dynamic color, and a keener appreciation of nuance. In the Beethoven Symphony, there was biggity of tempo and coldness of tone, and besides there was no apprehension to bring out and emphasize the theme which the great master has interwoven throughout the musical structure, so that most of the time it was completely lost amid the intricacies of the elaborations woven around it by the accompanying instruments. In fairness to Mr. Anderson, however, it must be stated that of twenty-eight men who played in the first recital, only nine were in the orchestra for the second production. And, as stated before, some of those taking part were secured at the eleventh hour. This is a handicap no conductor can overcome. There must be some opportunity for preliminary study of the program numbers and their rendering. The famous symphony orchestras of the country are made up of men who practice eight to ten hours daily, week in and week out, and as such gain a familiarity with the scores similar to that of the graded school pool with the alphabet. And the conductor, directing these rehearsals, has opportunity not only to learn as to his players' abilities but also to impress upon them his individuality. We remain three more recitals in the series, scheduled for Sunday afternoon, May 8, May 20 and June 17. Announcement made by the Singers and Lovers, Deacon Johnson, manager, which is promoting and managing their recitals is that C. Carroll Clark, baritone, will be the soloist for the April recital. It is hoped that music lovers and patrons will make reservations for rooms or boxes at earliest convenient date that the management may make a list of boxholders and guarantors. A parting suggestion to the management is the advice to preoofread the program more carefully. Several egregious errors marked Sunday's program for which it is difficult to find excuse. It is "cantabile," not "cantibile," and all the authorities spell it "Brahms" not "Brahms."

Ohio, having deser- tated the shores of Boston, writes me has completed a southern states filled with many pleas- euring incidents. He played inferences which included groups many of the largest and institutional institutions of learning and His program, as given Virginia Collegiate Insti- denced in this column last program played at Fisk shows the same numbers, but changes Lake's Spanish Symphonic (amore); Coleridge-Taylor's (amore); and the Prize Wagner's "Meistersinger" (Wilhelm). In addition Mr. White added of his own compositions, "Caprice", "Cabin Song", and "Spiritual". He said in his letter: "Am living quietly and incidentally getting in more work in composition." "While on this tour, Mr. White, played at Tuskegee Institute. One of the school publications, The Staff, carried a story of the recital, written in such a breezy, interesting style, that the temptation to share it with readers of The Age cannot be resisted. It reads as follows: "When the recital was over, some one stepped up and said to Mr. White with ardor, 'It was just enough and not too much and all very delightful.'" "In the midst of a week full of musical attractions, the quiet melody of beautifully-mated violin and piano was refreshing and satisfying with its simple sweetness. Mr. White in his former recitals at Tuskegee may have played more brilliantly—on this occasion he was in the midst of convalescence from a serious surgical operation which he had undergone in November—but his music was never more satisfying or more thoroughly enjoyable than at his last recital. "Aside from his art, Mr. White has Henry B. Krohfeld Music Critic of the N. Y. Tribune, Dead Ngro Music has lost a distinguished friend. Henry Edward Krebbler, for 43 years the music editor of the New York Tribune, died Tuesday, March 20, a few moments past 2:30 o'clock, after a brief illness. His 69th birthday was on March 10. Not only was Mr. Krebbler the dean of New York's music critics, but he was also the most distinguished writer on musical subjects in America. His interest covered every phase of musical endeavor. Negro music is especially indebted to him, for his researches and studies of Negro folk song led to the writing of an unusually authoritative volume, "Afro-American Folk Songs," published by Schirmer in 1914. This work brought to the world a knowledge of the Negro folk song it had never possessed and stamped with authority the right of Negro music to be classed as America's native music. Henry E. Krehbiel was born March 10, 1854, at Ann Arbor, Mich., but during his boyhood the family moved to Ohio. In 1874 he became musical editor and critic of the Cincinnati Gazette, and in 1879 he came to the New York Tribune. He lived at 152 West 105th street, and died at Roosevelt Hospital. a most engaging personality, and in playing there is a 'blending of his art and personality that has an appeal that is almost irrealisable. There is that about it which makes you feel, not that he is performing for the display of his gifts, but rather that he is playing because he likes it, and more than that, because you like to hear it. "It is this personal appeal that constitutes the charm of his recitals and it was felt the more keenly when, as the last number of his program, he gave a group of his own compositions, including his transcription of 'Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen' which has been made nationally popular by the great Austrian violinist, Fritz Kreisler. "Besides his distinction as a violinist, Mr. White bears the additional distinction of being president of the National Association of Negro Musicians, an organization of which he is one of the founders and with which, also, the Music Lovers Club of Tuskegee Institute is affiliated. In recognition of this fact, the Music Lovers Club held a special meeting on Monday evening following the recital at home of Mrs. W. T. B. Williams with Miss M. E. Saurez as hostess. "At the meeting, Mr. White outlined before the group the program of the National Association as drafted last summer in the annual meeting at Columbus, Ohio, at the same time, brightening his discussion with Fredi and illuminating anecdotes about Negro musicians who have achieved distinction. Our Music Lovers Club is an active supporter of the National, of which the local president, Mrs. Alice Carter Simmons, is secretary-treasurer, and of which also the chairman of the local executive committee is a member of the National Advisory Board. The club sends each year one or more delegates to the annual meeting. "During his stay at Tuskegee, Mr. White was the house-guest of his long-time friends, Mr. and Mrs. C. M. Battey, Mr. Battey having had a large share in the development of Mr. White's early career in music. Morehouse Music Clubs Render Annual Recital Atlanta, Ga.—The annual concert of Morehouse College glee club and orchestra, Kemper Harrell, director, was held in Sale Hall Chapel, on the college campus, on Friday evening, March 16. It was dedicated to the memory of the late Mme. E. Azalia Hackley, whose work in developing higher musical aspiration in the race took her frequently to Morehouse College, as it did to scores of other centers of learning throughout the country. The glee club of forty, including eight first tenors, seven second tenors, twelve first bassos, twelve second bassos, with Robert Brown as pianist, sang three groups—Chadwick's Viking Song; "Has sorrowy thy young days shaded?" (an Irish folk song); "Down to the River Jordan" and "My soul is a witness" (Negro Spirituals); Bruno Huhn's "Invictus" and "College Song." The orchestra of thirty-four gave three orchestral groups and played the accompaniment for a cornet and two vocal solos. The William Tell Overture (Rossini) was the opening number, and Drigo's Valse Bluette, Sonsa's "Drifting to Loveland," and Rokledo's Chimps Waltz were also played. Oscar Hall sang Morgan's "Love is a bubble," C Wendell Holmes played a Melody (Penn) as a cornet solo, and Alfred Jackson-Rigell sang Mah Lindy Lue, supported each by the orchestra. A quartet, composer of W. G. Valentine and Willis James, tenors, and Andrew Taylor, and Sanford Dumson, bassos, sang "By the waters of Mimetonka (Lieurance), Annie Laurie (Buck), and When shall we meet again?" (Whiting). Other numbers were "Thou art risen, my Beloved" (Coleridge-Taylor) by Sanford Dumson, basso; Czardas—Hungarian Melodies (Moni) by John Hervey Wheeler, violinist; "Since you went away" (Johnson) by Levi Terrell, tenor; "My heart calls you in vain" (Wm. G. Valentine. 24 words by Willis James, 23) and "Homing" (Del Riego) by Willis James, tenor. Choir and Orchestra of Youths at Asbury Park Asbury Park, N.

M. E. Zion. The pastor, Rev. Dr. J. W. Brown, took for his subject, "Heaven" (Rev 21:1). He stated that while some claim that there is no Heaven or hell, yet the Bible teaches that there is a heaven. He quoted passages of scripture which teach that heaven is both a place and a state. He declared that faith was a gift from God and it must be exercised to have religion. He spoke of the doctrine of the atonement, the incarnation, the virgin birth, and the resurrection as fundamentals of religion, and that there was mysticism in religion which could not be reasoned out of science. If so, we would have a philosophy and not a religion. The speaker further stated that the text did not teach that this world was to be destroyed by fire, that it was to be made new. No longer a world of silt and sorrow, no longer a place under the curse of God, but a new home. The former things, death, sorrow, sickness, misery, would all pass away. Its inhabitants would be new creatures, with new bodies. Everything was to be changed, mobility to put immortality, and corruptible to become incorruptible. The springtime affords a striking illustration of the making of things new. Here he gave many vivid pictures of heaven, and the satisfying condition that obtains throughout its vast domain. During the delivery of the entire sermon, the congregation listened with breathless attention. The sermon was indeed a masterpiece, and there was everywhere visible demonstrations that it was effective. At the conclusion of the sermon, while the choir sang, ten persons were received into the church. The Sunday-school convened at 2 o'clock. The attendance was very creditable indeed. Following the lesson study period, the Easter music was rehearsed. The Sunday-school is planning a moving picture entertainment by the Juliet Film Motion Picture Co. on Wednesday, April 4, at 8:30 p. m., a tened picture of the life of Moses. At 8 o'clock the pastor preached the 15th anniversary sermon to Eureka Temple, No. 22, Daughters of Elks. A large number of invited guests were present, including grand lodge officers, and officers and members of local lodges and temples. The speaker spoke of the growth of Elkdom, and its spirit of liberality. Though younger, than many other fraternal organizations, it was securing for itself a place in the vanguard of fraternalism among our people. Offering so the church was $104. Next Sunday, Palm Sunday, at 10:45 a. m., the pastor will preach in the auditorium, and the assistant pastor in the lecture room.

First Emmanuel Church Sunday being Holy Communion, many attended both morning and evening services. In the morning, owing to Dr. Bolden having to preach elsewhere, Dr. George W. Carter of the New York Bible Society preached. His talk was from I Peter, 1:24-25, "For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away; but the Word of the Lord endureth forever. And this is the Word which by the gospel is preached unto you." At the close of Dr. Carter's short talk on this subject, he gave a short review of the work being done by the New York Bible Society. Sunday-school was opened at the usual hour, 2 o'clock, by Superintendent Hogans. The leasen study was interesting, as the young minds are being turned towards God more than ever during this lenten season. At 3.30 a few members gathered and had a short meeting; those who spoke were Miss Copeland, Mrs. Lockett and Mrs. Talte. At 4.30 the Literary Society convened, the S. M. and I. Society having the program, with William Coleman as master of ceremonies. The program was as follows: Quartet, Messra, Ballou, Townsend, Brown and Coleman; recitation, Mr. ownsend; chorus by the men; solo, W. Coleman; paper, Mr. Ballou; quartet by the men; address, Rev. R. M. Bolder; chorus by the men. The evening service was interesting and uplifting. Pastor Bolden spoke from the life of Jacob, his subject beeing, "Surely the Lord is in this place and I knew it not." Pastor Bolden gave a descriptive story of the life of Esau and Jacob, from the earliest time of their existence up to the time when Jacob stole his brother's birthright. Communion was served at both morning and evening services. Dinner was served during the day by members of the Bible class and quite a sum was given to the church from the same. Services will be held at the church on Good Friday. Everyone is invited to come and worship with us. Much attention is to be given this week by the members of the church to thinking on the suffering of our Lord, and also to thinking of His glorified body which arose and dwells in each and every individual heart who will have it so. On Palm Sunday all are requested to come early and get the palm which will be given out by Pastor Bolden. St. James Presbyterian. The services at St. James Presbyterian Church are being attended by the largest congregations in recent years. Dr. Hyder is preaching a series of sermons on the "Things that are generally misunderstood by the masses." Last Sunday at the morning service the theme was "How thinking of the new Jerusalem will help us endure the injustices of the present life." The text was taken from Hebrews 11:27. Dr. Hyder said, among other things, that "Life to be worthwhile must be directed with reference to the future;" he warned against the false philosophy that says, "All that people need is a type of Christianity that helps men to live now," when the true philosophy of life is that the present is to be lived and interpreted in terms of the future; this was taught by Jesus when he said, "Labor not for the meat which perisheth, but for that food which endureth unto everlasting life which the Son of an shall give you."

This article stated that the celebration was held on March 2, when in reality it was held on March 1. It was also erroneously stated that the title of the property purchased by the order for the erection of a memorial hall to Ogden was vested in the District Grand Lodge, which is located in 244 West 135th street in The Headquarters Building Association of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, state of New York, Inc.

Utopia Neighborhood Club Apologizes to Hope Day Nursery for Mistake A history of the Utopia Neighborhood Club was read at a birthday party given by the club at New Star Casino in November, 1922. The *Crisis* complimented the club on its 11 years of usefulness and asked to publish an account of the crisis, including the publication, appeared the following paragraph: "In 1916, Mrs. Reed, our president, who at that time was president of the board of managers of Hope Day Nursery, appealed to the individual members of the board to help raise funds for the Nursery. Seventeen members of the Utopia responded to aid fourteen members of the board of managers of the Nursery, all serving as captains. By this bit of cooperation, $3,000 was raised free this deserving institution from indulgence and paying off the mortgage on the building." Unfortunately, the editor of the *Crisis*, in cutting the article for publication, had the above paragraph in the current issue to read: "In 1916, the Utopia Club raised $3,000 to pay off the mortgage of Long Day Nursery". This statement routine. The campaign of 1916 was run under the direction of the board of managers of Hope Day Nursery and as stated in the original paragraph, a large number of individual members of the Utopia Trust. This group placed in the history of the club, because during the time of the campaign so many members were actively engaged in the campaign that this work was included as the club's activities for that period. The Utopia Neighborhood Club regrets the publishing of such a statement and immediately wrote the board of managers of Hope Day Nursery, expressing their regret and humiliation at the publication of a statement which savored of taking credit for work not actually done by the club, and offered to correct the mistake. The club hands for cooperation and has gladly helped every institution or organization which has appealed to it for help, especially those working to promote the welfare of our children. We appreciate the work of Hope Day Nursery in caring for the child of the working mother, and we recognize the continued success and larger opportunity for usefulness. Mmc. Allone Expands Colored Doll Business Mme. Allone, who began a doll business in one room at 2376 Seventh avenue less than two years ago, has been so successful in the business that she founded the business and occupies the entire first floor of this building. At first she employed only one other person in the business. She now employs five regularly, and seven during the busy season. She occupies the second position in the doll manufacturing business, having been a designer both of dolls and of doll costumes for one of the largest firms in New York, and also for a large firm in Los Angeles, Calif., before coming here. Deciding that she had a thorough understanding of the design colored dolls several years ago and now has the exclusive rights to the only doll manufactured with real colored features. In conducting this business, Mme. Allone feels that she is not only doing a legitimate business but is also installing a racing prize in the future generation of our race. St. Marks M. E. Church.

"Y" Offers Girl's Chance Both For Work and Play The demand in the Employment Department for power machine operators, of which we spoke last week, continues to increase. This is an opportunity to hold and to regain our place in the factories and shops and we want to work with them. Our Converse in the operating of huttonhole, bonnar and plain power machines are offered here in the Y. W. C. A. The work is quickly and easily learned and the fees are extremely small. There is an excellent opportunity for girls to work in this field of work. The district is in overflowing with girls who can last Thursday night to hear Miss Margaret Slattery speak on the subject, "When Your Ship Comes In". Miss Slattery's talks to girls are interest-compelling and inspiring. The lecture was in charge of the New York City Mimic, and our Girl Guard and Beau-Xarts members had the pleasure of attending. And while we are speaking of girls, are you a girl over eighteen? Are you interested in dramatics? Do you like to sing? Can you play any kind of instrument, or would you like to learn? Could you like to gain tenure in practice? Can you design costumes or scenery for plays? Can you sketch? And if you are not specially interested in any of these things, would you like to be one of a large jolly group of girls who have all kinds of good times together? Then you should join the Beaux-Arts Club. We have a meeting every day night at R40. Come to visit and play at the death of Miss Annie Williams of the November Club is a real loss to her friends.

St. Lukes Episcopal Mission Interest in the services at St. Luke's Mission continues unabated and each service the capacity of the mission is taxed to its intermost. Last Sunday a large number partook of the Holy Communion at 8 o'clock, welcoming every available space was taken to 3rd Faith, 3rd verse: "Wait on the Lord, and keep His way." Dr. Wood showed that absolute dependence upon God was necessary to a successful life, because the soul is God's possession. And we must serve Him with all heart, mind, soul and body. He showed that the reason we live so often fail in our efforts is because we cannot take possession of us. Although an unreal and magnifying thing yey it is the greatest weapon in the hands of the devil to defeat our best efforts in life. Fear paralyzes our efforts and chills our aspiration for higher and better things and keeps us from reaching a higher plane of thought and Serenity. We were filled with bright faced happy children and the teachers were learning with interest in their charges. At 8 p.m., the Mission was again filled. The choir sang soul-stirring music, and the vicar told of the great missionary field white for the harvest. The day closed upon a happy and great church with a generous offering for the work. Palm Sunday services will be appropriate. Rev. C. K. Gilbert, executive secretary of the diocese, will preach next week. Rev. W. T.

The day was quarterly many days before the charge registration was present during the entire day. The only thing that prevented a quarterly meeting as of yore, when people travelled far to be present and brought their dinners, is due to the newly installed modern kitchen and dining room where meals are prepared and brought to the presiding elder, Dr. L. G. Mason, preached at 3 p.m. at time Communion was administered. His theme was "The gifts of God." At 7.45 the pastor preached again. His theme was "The riches and poverty of life."
