Boston, Mass.—The naming by Mayor Curley of Charles C. Dogan, a Negro boy, honor pupil at the English High School, to read the Declaration of Independence from the halcony of the Old State House in connection with the July Fourth exercises, stirred three former Bostonians, now living in Charlotte, N.

Five judges of the New York State Court of Claims William-D. Cummings in an address delivered to the Cardinal Gibbons Council, Kenneth Columbus, in the Erasmus High School, Brooklyn, N. Y., declared that if the Negro is a problem it is because the white race made him so. If he has gone wrong it is because his white brother did in the opportunity to learn the ways of right living. Judge Cummings declared that 11,000,000 Negroes are denied the hoom of Catholicism and dendrised the lethargy and self-complexity of the Catholicism. Said he, "The Knights of Columbus must have a spirit which is large enough to carry them to the rescue of these black kin. I do not advocate equality, but I do appeal to the Catholic; to aid these deem mollions so to understand and accept the principles and ideals might by the Catholic Church. The democracy and equality to which we can draw our black brothers are the only democracy and equality which exists." FOR QUALITY READ The New York Age THE HOME PAPER VOL. 36. No. 42.

Dogan was selected for the honor conferred on him for excellent reasons: he has shown a competence and capacity in the generous rivalry of school life to make him a worthy choice; he is an 'honor pupil' that is to say, a pupil of more than ordinary attainments; his choice has the approbation of his fellow pupils; and his selection to read the immortal Declaration is an expression of our recognition of the services of his race in Massachusetts to human freedom and democratic government. One of his race died in the streets of Boston in defense of human rights—Crispin Attucks—and Boston has raised a monument to his memory on Boston Common; and thouands of his race fought and died to preserve the Union in the war of the Rebellion, and to 'make the world sage for democracy' in the World War. Any man of any race, color or creed who is willing and worthy to serve the Flag and die for the Republic is worthy to have his place in the Sun of American Democracy.

Paris May Close Cafe Which Bars Negroes To Please Americans Paris, France—The clash between French and American attitudes toward Negroes has reached such a crisis here that the police threaten to close a cabaret where the proprietor refused recently to serve Negroes. The place is frequently by many white Americans. The Negroes came in with some whites, including the composer, Darius Milhaud. One colored visitor was a Prince of Dahomey, but he could not be served. Deputy Gratien Candace violently attacks Frenchmen for refusing to serve Negroes because of fear they will lose their American clientele. "France has her own physisgm, which must not be disfigured," he warns. "Whites, yellows or blacks who possess the splendid title of French citizen are bound by the same ideal and justice and fraternity proclaimed by the Nation which made the greatest revolution in the world for the liberation of humanity." When Gen. Henri Joseph "Eugene Gouen, the great French warrior who commanded the Rainbow, Division of American troops in France during the World War, and who was known as "The Lion of the Argoine," reached America on Sunday, July 1, his first hearing of the inspiring French war tame, the immortal "Marseillaise," was from the instruments of the band of the 369 Infantry, representing its predecessor, the Old 15th New York," which as the 369th A. E. F. under Col. "Bill" Hayward, was also under command of Gen Gouenraud, winning for itself the affectionate appellation, "The Hellfighters." Lieut. F. Eugene Mikell, who was handmaster of the Old 15th band under the late Lieut James Reese Europe, and served with that organization in France, is now director of the new 369th musical organization. Col. Arthur Little, commanding the 369th, served as a major under Colonel Hayward with the Old 15th, and while in France some months since, Col. Little had been personally honored by the great French general. Last Thursday, while deserved warrior, he brought the thoughtful warrior, who left his right arm at the Dardanelles in the Galipolis campaign, sent a radio to Col. Little, telling of his impending arrival and declaring that he looked forward with pleasure "to meeting you and all my old friends of the Fifteenth." When the SS. France docked at the pier foot of 15th Street, Col. Little, as a guest of the Rainbow Division Committee, hosts to Gen. Gournau, was one of the welcoming group, and the hand of the 160th Infantry, under Lieut. Mickell, was the only military musical organization present. About 200 colored citizens, formerly attached to the Old 15th New York, were present to add their welcome to their former commanding general. The French hero was escorted from the pier to the Pennsylvania station, where he took train for Southampton. He will be in this country for six weeks. GEN.

Zion Church Washington, D. C. Sir:—Resolutions adopted on June 18 at a mass meeting held at the John Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church, forwarded to the President of the United States, have been referred to this Bureau for reply. It is the policy of the Bureau to man the hospital at Tuskegee with a complete colored staff. Every effort is being made to secure qualified medical, technical, and non-technical personnel to fill the positions in the various departments. The hospital is being operated by white physicians who have been temporarily transferred from other institutions. As soon as a colored staff can be secured the white officers now on duty will be replaced. Colored dentists are now being assigned to the station; colored physicians, however, will not be assigned to duty until a complete staff is available. The National Medical Association has been requested to submit a list of qualified physicians capable of operating the hospital in order that there may be as little delay as possible in arranging a permanent staff for this institution.

Harding in Behalf Of Their Imprisoned Leader 1,500 at Sunday Afternoon Mass Meeting Ask Investigation of Conduct of the Recent Trial and Conviction of Marcus Garvey—Tobias Denounced N. A. A. C. P. False Reports Concerning Escape of Smith From The Fordham Hospital Printed Head Injured in Auto Accident in Which Man Was Killed; Was Allowed Freedom of Grounds, Did Not Know He Was Prisoner, Went Home—Wife Told Authorities. Some 1,500 members of the U. N. I. A., more familiarly, known as the Garvey organization, were assembled at Liberty Hall Sunday afternoon, July 1, to voice an indignant protest against the alleged unfair methods used by Assistant United States Attorney Mattuck in his prosecution of their chief, the recently convicted Marcus Garvey, who is in the Tombe prison, under sentence of five years in the Federal prison at Leavenworth, awaiting the outcome of an appeal. The most conspicuous figure of the afternoon, from the spectator's point of view, was that of an alleged Prince of Abyssinia, one Ishi Van Dava, who was clad in flowing gobes that dazzled the eyes with a combination of all the colors of the rainbow, topped with a turban decorated with buckles of vari-colored stones in the similitude of emeralds, rubies and semi-precious stones. Ishi claims to be ruler of an Abyssinian province, it is said, but his talk Sunday afternoon was throated in the accents of a gentleman from "Bani." He declared himself to be the real prophet of the Garvey movement, the man who blessed Garvey's ships as they moved away in stardry dignity on their jiltated rum-had voyages of conquest. He claimed Divine contact and association, and declared that God had told him He was with the U. N. I. A. and with Marcus Garvey, "the man that He has used to wake the sleeping black man" and incidentally, the man who is himself now sleeping in a bed furnished wards of the city, state and country who have transgressed the statutes. The prince, in addition to his own gorgeous habiliments, was accompanied by an aide-de-camp whose accountment was only less brilliant than that of his chief, and who bore, in addition, a scintillant curved scapular that gleamed with sinister portent as shafts of light struck its glittering blade. Rev. W. W. Brown Eloquent Not so brilliant in garb, but of much more striking appearance, was the Rev. W. W. Brown, pastor of the Metropolitan Baptist Church, which formerly owned and occupied the present Liberty Hall as house of worship. It was a beautiful building, but the vey and his organization bought what is now浸入教堂 Liberty Hall. Dr. Brown, who studied as to his right to speak by declaring that he had been a subscriber to the Nemo World CONG. DYER SPEAKS ON ANTI-LYNCHING BILL TO HARLEMITES At N.A.A.C.P. Mass Meeting, Tells Hearers His Bill Is No. 1 on House Calendar. Congressman Dyer of St. Louis, the author of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill was the principal speaker at a public mass meeting under the auspices of the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. at Renaissance Casino on Sunday afternoon, July 1. Mr. Dyer stated that the anti-lynching bill would he re-introduced at the next Congress and he had secured position number 1 for it on the calendar of the House of Representatives. After chiding the audience on the lack of interest shown by Negroes in New York on this legislation, he urged them to stand together and continue the fight until the bill finally becomes a law. Before concluding his address he paid a tribute to James Weldon Johns False Reports Co. Escape of Smith Fordham He Head Injured in Auto Accident. Was Allowed Freedom of Gr Was Prisoner, Went Home— In a recent issue of the Harlem Home News it was stated that Charles Smith. 35, of 141 West 143rd street, had been captured in a 135th street cabaret after an escape from Fordham Hospital where he was being held on a charge of homicide growing out of an automobile accident. It was also alleged that as a result of Smith's escape, three policemen were compelled to answer charges before their Inspector. It was further al- leged that when found, Smith was sitting at a table in a cabaret with two women, laughing and having a good time. According to members of Hiram Lodge, F. & A. M., these statements are largely untrue. It seems that Smith who was a prisoner at Fordham Hospital after an automobile accident in which he was injured and another man killed, was mentally unbalanced as a result of the accident. He was never told that he was a prisoner, was allowed the freedom of the grounds, and had been promised repeatedly that he would be permitted to go home. One hot day when he was refused permission to leave the hospital, he took a taxi and came home anyway. His wife, who have he was a prisoner, immediately get in touch with Charles for several years, told of having watched the progress of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. The Harlem minister, who is reputed to have a following almost as large and every bit as devoted as the Garvey group, argued that the one great need of the Negro race is a leader. Then he gave forth the declaration that he considered Marcus Garvey to be the only Negro who had shown himself capable of real leadership. Without stopping to answer any possible questions as to where the Garvey leadership might eventually lead, Dr. Brown characterized all Negroes who had urged or sympathized in action against Garvey as traitors to the race. He spoke of the petition for Garvey's release, saying he had signed it and advised all of his friends to do so. Tobias and the N. A. A. C. P. Another eloquent speaker of the afternoon was D. E. Tobias, the well-known orator, essayist, newspaper man and writer on general subjects. Prof. Tobias soon caught the spirit of the audience and they roared approval of his utterances. Consistent in his career of opposition, the speaker turned his big guns against the N. A. A. C. P., assuming to find in this well-known organization the substance and groundwork of the prosecution of Marcus Garvey, President-General of the U. N. J. A. According to Mr. Tobias, this action by the Advancement Association was taken because the rapid growth of Garvey's society had weakened the N. A. A. C. P., attracting away from it many potential members, and to this, he declared, was to be added the element of a bitter personal jealousy on part of several of the N. A. A. C. P. officers. A bitter attack was made upon Prosecutor Mattuck, who declared the speaker, had gone out of his way to hound and pound and pinch Garvey, "but, he"ried, "some day the gates of the Trombs are going fly open"—but a great choreo-illusion "the series of approval drowned out the rest of" R. L. Poston, Secretary of the U. N. J. A., charged that England and France had joined with the U.S. authorities in persecuting Garvey because of their interests in Africa. A petition to be sent President Harding was circulated for signatures, asking investigation into "the conduct of the trial and subsequent movements by the part of the Prosecutor." Everybody who could be reached signed it. son, who he said was more responsible than anyone else for the success made by this bill in the last congress. James Weldon Johnson was the presiding officer, and in a few remarks pointed out the agitation for the passage of the Diver Bill had resulted in the decrease of lynching by two-thirds during the first six months of this year over last year. He called on Dr. M. V. Boutté to introduce Mr. Dyer. An appeal for membership was made by William Pickens at the conclusion of Mr. Dyer's address and the audience responded liberally. Others on the program included the Rev. John W. Johnson, Jr. of the St. Cyprian P. E. Church, who made the invocation; the Rev. A. C. Garner, pastor of Grace Congregational Church who pronounced the benediction; and Deacon Johnson, who led the audience in community singing, rendering "America" and "The Long, Long, Trail." Clarence Hall was at the piano.

Thorpe of 56 West 135th street, Smith's fellow-member in Hiram Lodge. Mr. Thorpe went to Smith's home and told him he was under arrest and advised him to return to the hospital. This Smith refused to do, declaring that he would commit suicide before he would go to jail. Mr. Thorpe then advised Mrs. Smith to inform the police that her husband had been located and would be returned to the hospital in a short time. Thorpe got in touch with Plaintiff Clothes Officer Green, who after the situation had been explained to him, secured two detectives from the 51st Precinct Station and had Smith rearrested. This arrest was brought about through the cooperation of Mr. Thorpe, James S. Herbert, Sid Helms and Fred Seguraud, all members of Hiram Lodge. They promised to take Mr. Smith for a ride in Mr. Thorpe's car. At the entered the car, he was placed under arrest by the detectives, who had been waiting in the street. He was not in a cabaret, as was stated in the other papers, and no far as is known no investigation of the manner of his escape has been made. He is still in the hospital and remains somewhat unhelped as result of a service wound on the hand. Harlemites Make Protest Against Reopening of the Cabaret in Lafayette Bldg. Commissioner Glatzmayer Has Been Requested to Refuse License to White Man Who Proposes to Cater to Colored People in Resort That Has Won Disfavor. POLICE INSPECTOR McDONALD AND CAPTAIN MULROONEY OF 38TH PRECINCT ENDORSE BAN Citizens of Community Ask That Tax Be Placed on "Soft Drink" Places which are Opening in Hitherto Restricted Neighborhoods- Camouflaged "Hootch" Joints. Many written and spoken tests have been made by leading men and women of ha. to the granting of a license for the proposed reopening on the cabaret located in the basement of the Lafayette Theatre building, formerly known as "Shuffle Inn," the proposition being promoted and financed by one Connie Immerman, a white man who has seemingly enlisted the support of a certain Harlem race element in his enterprise. Colored Cabaret Owners Assn. Protest Endorsement Given "Shuffle Inn" by N. Y. News Pres. Hicks Writes Alderman-Editor a Strong Letter Setting Forth Position of Body Which Is Working to Eliminate Objectionable Features of Business. The New York Age is in receipt of a letter from the Colored Cabaret Owners' Association, composed of twelve colored men who are conducting cabarets in Harlem, and who have formed an organization for the purpose of remedying many of the conditions which have given rise to complaints against these resorts in the past, with Lonnie Hicks as president. In this letter, Mr. Hicks, speaking for his organization thanks The Age for its fight against the Harlem hootch joints operating under guise of delicatessens, soft drink places, and other innocent appearing These protests have been taken direct to August W. Glatner, Commissioner of Licenses, who has promised an exhaustive investigation into the merits of Immerman's application. The general consensus of opinion in Harlem, among the element which has the best interest of the race at heart and a desire to protect the boys and girls from debauchery by members of other races who are seeking primarily a financial benefit, is that there is a sufficient number of cabarets and similar resorts in Harlem. There has been an effort made by the promoter of this new "Shuttle Inn" project to allay opposition and hostility to his venture by aligning himself with the colored men who are running amusement resorts in Harlem and who are members of the Colored Cabaret Owners' Association. The information at hand is to the effect that Immerman's application was turned down by these men. Police Oppose Re-opening Inspector Thomas McDonald recently transferred to the Third Inspection District, giving him supervision over the Harlem section, has expressed himself as desirous of bettering conditions in Harlem in every way possible, and he has declared that "there is no need for additional reports of this class. Captain Edward P. Mulroney, successor to Captain Patrick Stargan, retired, in command of the 56th Precinct, West 135th street police station, takes a similar position. Both these police officials will oppose the reopening of the "Shuffle Inn." Immermann, all of asudden, has developed unusual sympathy and kindness for the Harlem Negro. As a measure of his esteem he has advertised the fact that he has engaged a well-known colored Harlemite to take charge of the place when it is reopened, under the new name of "Connil's Inn." There is another condition arousing decent Harlemites to a sense of community danger, and this to be found in the innumerable "soft drink" places being opened up, many of them in neighborhoods (hitherto free from nuisances of any description. The proprietors most of whom are said to Colored Cabaret. O. Protest Endorse "Shuffle Inn" Pres.

W Harris, editor of The New York News objecting to the endorsement given by Alderman Harris' paper, in its last issue to the proposed reopening of the "Shuffle Inn" cabaret in the Lafayette Theatre building basement by a white proprietor, Cohnie Immerman, alleged to be interested in the conduct of the objectionable delicatessen places which are in many cases, camoufaged hooch-selling joints. The letters, given in full, below, are self explanatory. Editor of The New York Age: After reading an article in The New York News in defense of the Shuffle Inn Cabaret, owned by Mr. Immerman, I am forced to again thank you and your paper for the stand you have taken and the help you have given the Colored Cabaret Owners Association, in their fight to put the cabaret business on a level of respectability. We have in our race quite a few giants; physical, intellectual, political, musical, legal, etc., but the moral giant in my mind is the greatest and will meet the next in time to come.

It is being suggested; as a means to curb the activities of "hootch" sellers in this particular line, that the Board of Alderman should place a tax or license fee upon these "soft drink" places and delicatessens, and thus give the city police authority to enter in search of law violations. The seeming character of these places make it possible for girls and women as well and boys, to enter with the same freedom of movement at the men customers. Their entrance through the front door attracts no particular attention. The Backroom Menace But many of these places maintain small backrooms and these rooms the "booch" is dispensed. This constitutes a dangerous menace to the moral and physical health of the community. Cases have been known in which women, sometimes young girls have become so intoxicated or doped from the effects of the drinks taken in these backrooms as to behome practically helpless. And it has happened on several occasion, that these victims of the "booch" dispensing bootleggers have been dragged out and thrust into dark hallways to recover as best they could. And it is more than probable that some of these girls and women have became victims of a much more serious crime—their condition would make them easily overcome by men inspired with brutal lust. Inspector McDonald declares that he will cooperate in every way with the citizens of Harlem in the effort to clean out these pest holes, but it is necessary that he have complaints on which to act. Capt. Mulrooney is a newcomer to Harlem, and has had little contact, with colored people, but he has declared with emphasis that it is his intention to maintain a high degree of cooperation with the best elements of the Harlem citizenry, looking to maintaining and preserving the morale and high standard desired by the law and order supporters.

Sympathy is a great thing, but no matter how sympathetic we may be towards Mr. Immerman, we have duties to perform in this world that oft-times over-balance sympathy. Once more I will set forth the attitude of the Colored Cabaret Owners' Association. We are unalterably against these delicatessen booth joints that will in time wreck out business, and more important still, will drag the whole community and race down to a depth of degradation that go human power will be able to lift and as I am informed that the proprietor of "Shuffle Inn" is in this business, we stand solid against him entering the cabaret business which we are trying so hard to elevate. I am sending you a copy of a letter I am sending to Mr. George Harris, editor of The New York News. Publish it if you wish. I am very anxious that Harlem shall know our aims and PAGE TWO and cooperation, I am, sincerely yours, LONIE HICKS President Colored Cabaret Owners Association Dear Mr. Harris: As president of the Colored Cabaret Owners' Association I must take exception to your article touching on the opening of Shuffle Inn Cabaret by Mr. Connie Immerman, particularly that party where you mention that the opening of this place by Mr. Immerman should be looked upon with friendly rather than antagonistic feeling, and you also make mention of the fact that inn your mind the opening of this place of entertainment under the management of Mr. Immerman will add more business and do a general good to all other enterprises of this kind in the Harlem district and you add with this in mind, and the understanding of the good already accomplished by its proprietor, you wish it all success. Of course, a man has the right to wish success wherever he choose to wish it, and personally, as an individual I wish Mr. Immerman success, but not in this latest mode, as I am firmly convinced that, Mr. Immerman in the cabaret business with no power to control his mind in reference to running a place where the mavals of Harlem women are at stake and owing to the present business he is engaged in, namely the delicatessen business. Some time ago I gained great pleasure, in reading some of your articles Baying the delicatessen business, as it was then being carried on in Harlem, and which suddenly ceased publishing those interesting and truthful articles on the delicatessen points which were doing so much to destroy the very life of our people, both morally and physically, and which was and will if allowed to continue, slowly dragging us down to a depth of degradation that will take us to remedy. In reference to the sudden withdrawal of articles in your paper relative to the delicatessen joints in Harlem, I credited to your illness and your subsequent trip to Mexico, which as I remember, came off about the time of your crusade against the delicatessen joints. But, I am curious to know have the delicatessen joints in Harlem disappeared, or reformed to such an extent as to be not worthy of mention in your paper? My personal opinion is that they have not, but still I am open to conviction and as representative of a body of men running a business and doing all in their power to reform that business and put it on a higher level of respectability, I would like to be shown, and not only me, and the organization that I have the honor to represent, but there are a few ministers, together with their congregations, The New York Age, and the Police Department, which any same person knows is quite a force to reckon with, that no man in private or public life, no group or interest can afford to ignore. No doubt you are unaware of the steps this organization has taken to uplift their business from a moral standpoint thereby saving the investments of a group of men who pay out weekly over four thousand dollars in salaries, which runs into a quarter of a million dollars yearly. You mention the fact that Mr. Immerman will employ nearly sixty colored people in this new place, grant that he will; for sake of argument make it a hundred. Does that fact over-balance the danger of a man coming into a business that is already dangling by a thread which is trying to be saved by men who are experienced in the business, who have the interest of the weaker members of their race at heart, who have promised the police department, the minister, and congregations that they mean well and are sincere in their efforts to reform their business and also make Harlem a safe place to live in? As to Mr. Immerman personally, the organization has nothing against him, but we do claim that owing to his past and present business connections with the delicatessen business which in Harlem seems to draw an unwelcome element of people, weak in mind, loose in morals, dangerous to the community, making life itself unsafe, is clearly unqualified to come into a business that is as stated, before being uplifted by men who are absolutely sincere in their efforts to reform It and are willing and anxious to make sacrifices to further that end. As an example, Do you know that our business has been followed by the delicatessen interest like a flock of vultures follow prey? Do you know that wherever there is a cabaret you will find one of these hootch joints? Do you know that every new cabaret that has been opened in Harlem is immediately made the neighbor of one of these joints? Do you know that there have been a number of people doing an honest and profitable business who have been dispossessed to make room for one of these hootch joints just because they happen to occupy a desired spot where, being near a cabaret, the chances seem great to the hootch interest for sales coming from some of the patrons of the cabarets? Can't you see that a delicatessen store is our natural enemy? Can't you see that it is an enemy of our future generations? We are slowly but surely coming to the point where we will all be measured by our worth and we will all be judged by just what we do and stand for and we want the world to know that the Colored Cabaret Owners Association stands unalterably against these hooch joints, whether run by colored men Jews or Italians. This is not a race fight; it is only our intention to fight, the growing evil that if allowed to continue will put us before the world as a people bereft of decency, wallowing in dissipation, and satisfied with any condition forced upon us. Mr. Harris, how long do you think a group of colored men with a chain of delicatessen store, degrading a community would last on the East Side? Harlem is entering into a new day. We have been alone too long. We have not to save the delicatessen patron from himself. He does not know any better. The Jews are blessed with the Young Men's Hebrew Association, the Mount Sinai Hospital, and a number of institutions where a fallen Jew can be lifted up and start all over again, but the colored people are not so fortunate. Therefore, instead of having the mean, in turn an existing evil we have, to go about it, in another manner, and see New York Conference of the A.M.E.Zion Church Demands Race Personnel for Hospital Declares South Ought Be Consistent In Its Policy of Segregation—Not a Reason to Justify Administration in Putting Other Than Colored Staff On Duty. At the recent annual session of the New York annual conference of the A. M. E. Zion Church, held with the Fleet Street Memorial A. M. E. Zion Church Bridge street, Brooklyn, N. Y., the Rev. W. C. Brown, pastor, the question of providing colored physicians and nurses for the manning of the new hospital at Tuskegee Institute, Ala., for the treatment of disabled Negro veterans of the recent World War, was considered. After an exhaustive debate on the matter, the following resolutions were unanimously adopted by the conference: We have followed with deep concern and mounting interest and anxiety, the matter of the personnel of the officers in the Federal Hospital for colored war veterans at Tuskegee, Ala. N. Y., June 18th, do hereby voice our unanimous disapproval of the use of white officers and experts in the Tuskegee Federal Hospital. We further pray and insist that the administration of which President Harding is the chief director come out fairly and squarely and make good its pledge that Negroes would be used to mar this institution which is designed by the government for Negroes. We thoroughly believe that there is no situation or service incident to this hospital organization and its positions for which there are not Negro professionals adequately and expertly prepared. "In voicing our petition, we do not share the opinion of those who designate men of color influential at court "In our judgment, there has not been a single reason given to justify the administration in placing other than Negro physicians and officers to care for those who are assigned to this hospital for treatment and such attention as will be necessary to their best welfare and recuperation. We believe that segregation in the government is always dangerous and a hindrance to the realization and practice of the prerogative and ideals of our democracy, which are guaranteed to every one alike by the constitution. We submit, however, that since segregation is to be tolerated as a means to the peace and harmony of sections and the care and safety of those trusted to government institutions, that we should be consistent in doing so. Segregation in the army or the government is wrong. When it is done at the cost of blasting the aspirations of the equipped and capable ones in any group to govern and to give expert service, both to the government and to their own kith and kind, segregation becomes a species of slavery, which at this distance from our emancipation we regard as intolerable: "Without malice or passion, the New York Conference of the A. M. E. Zion Church, in meeting at Brooklyn, only hope is to first cut out the cause and that we are trying to do, i. e. with the help of our ministers and The New York Age, and I will add we would dearly love to have your help. If you care to have me, I will gladly call at your office and tell you the steps we have taken to help make Harlem a safe place to live in. I am sending a copy of this letter to The New York Age which has done so much to help us in our fight to reform our business and incidently wipe out an evil that in time is sure to destroy us all. Hoping that you will see sufficient reasons to join us in this fight, I am sincerely yours. LONNIE HICKS, President Colored Cabaret Owners' Association During the past few weeks, The Manassas industrial School has been conducting a spring campaign under the direction of its representatives, Prince L. Edwards, vice principal. This institution which was founded by Miss Jennie Dean, a colored woman in 1894 has grown from a one-room school to include fourteen buildings and 191 acres of land. Seven trades, agriculture and academic subjects, beginning at the fifth grade and continuing through a four-year high school course, constitute the outstanding features of "Manassas". It is a miniature Tinkkegee. Among the sources of support are the Jeans' Fund, Slater Fund, General Education Board and the Rosenwald Foundation. Mr. Rosenwald has contributed $1,000 per year for nine consecutive years. The drive here is the result of pressure of obligations which may cause the school to close its doors. In Philadelphia, a few weeks ago, "Shuffle Along" Company No. 1, staged a benefit, but the school lost fifty dollars because of the lack of interest on the part of our group there. In New York, however, the motion picture houses in Harlem have contributed great active aid to this endeavor to maintain a school for colored youth. A series of illustrated talks are being given in the theaters with slides actually showing buildings, etc., of the school. After the appeal for help a group of young ladies from several New York high schools, under direction of Miss Dorothy C. Emery, lifted the offerings. The theaters opening their doors are Franklin, Lincoln, Lafayette and New Duglass. At the last meeting of the trustee board on May 31, it was decided and a resolution was passed that unless the colored people raised $20,000 before September 1 in cash or pledges, "Mennasas" will be closed. It is the only institution in northern Virginia with the exception of a school in Alexandria, which carries anything over the sixth grade. In addition to this, it is the only school which has an accredited four year high school course in that section. Omarwald Garrison Villard is president of the board of trustees and Edward D. Howe is principal. The enrollment is 160 students; 80 boys and 80 girls; on the faculty are 14 teachers.

We further pray and insist that the administration of which President Harding is the chief director come out fairly and squarely and make good its gledge that Negroes would be used to man this institution which is designed by the government for Negroes. We thoroughly believe that there is no situation or service incident to this hospital organization and its positions for which there are not Negro professionals adequately and expertly prepared. "In voicing our petition, we do not share the opinion of those who designate men of color influential at court in this matter as being worthy of our suspicion, vilification and mistrust. We can but hope that the end we desire will be obtained without further fears and bitterness, in our own groups, and that we shall not be forced to measures which would make it necessary to express our contention in political penalties upon any who are in power of public office and trust. But we do not hesitate to ask with our suffrage for our just merits, at the hands of the administration, in this and other matters so painfully important to our race and nation."

ANTI-LYNCHING LAW RANDOLPH, AUTHOR, IN FORCE IN NEW JERSEY As the climax of long agitation New Jersey's first statute conceived by the Legislature as a curb on the Ku Klux Klan became effective July 4. The bill supported by Negro leaders of the state was introduced by Assemblyman Randolph of Easen, passed by this year's Legislature and approved by Governor Silizer. It is Chapter 147 of the 1923 laws and is entitled "An act to suppress mob violence." "Any collection of individuals, five or more in number, assembled for the unlawful purpose of offering violence to the person or property of any one-supposed to have been guilty of a violation of the law, or for the purpose of exercising correctional powers or regulative powers over any person or persons by violence, and without lawful authority, shall be regarded and designated as a "mob." reads the opening section of the law. Persons who compose mobs with the intent to inflict damage or under the pretense of exercising correctional powers are made subject to a fine ranging from $100 to $1,000 and imprisonment for not less than thirty-days nor more than one year for every offense. Where damage is inflicted, those participating are to be deemed guilty of a felony and subject to imprisonment not exceeding five years, and the person suffering by the acts of the mob, either to himself or his property, is given the right of action against the county or city in which the violence occurred for damages not exceeding $5,000. Survivors are given the same right of action where death is due to such violence. Lynching and Sheriff Removal It is provided further that "if any person shall be taken from the hands of the sheriff, or his deputy, having such person in custody and shall be lynched, it shall be prima facie evidence of failure on the part of such sheriff to his duty." and the Governor is to remove him from office. The official has the right of appeal to the Governor, however, and the Governor may reinstate him if evidence produced shows that he did all in his power to protect his prisoner. Both the Republicans and Democrats in their 1921 platforms denounced the Ku Klux Klan, but in their convention declarations last fall they confined themselves to advocacy of anti-lynch legislation. Preceding the session of the Legislature the Negroes of the State held numerous discussions as to the character of legislation they should seek and in the end the bill sponsored by Mr. Randolph, the sole Negro member of the Legislature, was determined upon. THE NEW YORK AGE VA. NEGRO FARMERS HOLD CONFERENCE AT HAMPTON INSTITUTE Farm Agenta From 31 Counlies in Annual Conference With State Agriculturalists. Hampton, Va. -The annual Hampton Institute farmers' conference brought together the colored farm and home demonstration agents who are working in thirty-one counties of Virginia to improve rural life, and delegates from churches, community clubs and co-advisory boards, who are working to improve co-operation. John B. Pierce, field agent of Negro extension work, States Relations Service, U. S. Department of Agriculture, declared that these community leaders came to Hampton Institute to secure knowledge and inspiration. The delegates reported on the following improvements: the increasing number of Negro farm-owners in Virginia; the establishment of community clubs; the development of co-operative buying with the resultant saving of money the introduction of pure-bred livestock; the improvement of homes, schools, and churches; the development of club work among boys; and the growing interest in the education of colored boys and girls. Schedule of Activities Warren K. Blodgett, director of the Hampton Agricultural School, arranged, with the co-operation of his staff workers, an inspection trip through the Institute departments; a trip to Shellbanks Farm, the Institute stock farm, which is six miles from Hampton; a hog-judging contest; a demonstration of "Inoculating Hogs" by Dr. George C. Faville; a talk on "Brooding Good Hogs" by J. A. Robringer; a picnic supper; motion-plate programs of films dealing with the improvement of rural life; three poultry demonstrations by F. S. Gammack; a round table discussion on "Local Leadership and Community Problems" by A. B. Doggett, Jr.; exhibits of poultry houses, good and poor laying hens, pure-bred cockerels; home made water supply systems, labor saving gas engines, tractors, farm machinery, sanitary toilets, well selected needs, home garden products and materials of interest to women. The Rev. Laurence Fenniger, chap- tain of Hampton Institute, opened the conference with a brief address on "The Sacredness of the Earth" based on the text. "The earth hath He given to the children of men." F. B. Keeley, former live-stock specialist at the Virginia Polytechnic Institute, who is now superintendent of "Curles Neck Farm," a famous stock farm, which is located near Richmond and is well known for it. Durco-Jersey hogs, spoke on "Hog Raising" at the men's section, which was held at Chellbanks Farm Women Plan Better Homes Miss Lula B, Walker of Blackburg, Va., home economics specialist, Virginia Polytechnic Institute, spoke to the home-demonstration agents and farm women on "Foods and Food Values." She indicated the inexpensive labor-shaving devices that should be used in the kitchen. There was a round-table discussion on what women have done and can do to improve community life. Mrs. M. C. Burritt of Ithaca, N. Y., stated that the problems of women in Virginia were much the same as in New York State. She reiterated the importance of having homemakers conserve time and strength. Miss Mildred C. Pratt, teacher of foods, Hampton Institute Home Economics School, spoke on *Household Decoration.* Mike, Eldona Oliver, clothing specialist, Virginia Polytechnic Institute gave in Ogden Hall a demonstration in planning a comfortable, attractive living-room. She used full sized furniture to show the effects of wise and unwise room planning. She also used simple hangings, rugs, and other furnishings to demonstrate her thesis that right-thinking counts for more than mere money-spending in planning a comfortable home for the family. M. C. Burritt of Ishaca, N. Y., State director of extension service, in his address on "Self-help and Local Leadership," made a plea for the extension of the principle of self-help, which underlies all good organization and lead- Co-operative Marketing "The county agent," he said, "if he is to be to agriculture what the teacher is to the school and the pastor is to the church, must teach, inform, lead, and organize the agricultural interests of his county to the common end of 'better farming, better business, and better living.' The county agent must believe that individuals and communities are capable of solving their own problems." John R. Hutcheson of Blackburg, Va., State director of extension spoke on "Co-operative marketing as a process of education." He stated that Virginia farmers who worked under the system of co-operative marketing received last season a better price for a larger crop of tobacco contrary to THE PORO AGENT RENDERS A DISTINCTIVE SERVICE It Pays to Patronize Her PORO HAIR AND TOILET PRODUCTS stand out from the crowd of competition with character strikingly their own.

He added that the Virginia tobacco crop brought $19,000,000 in 1921 and $40,000 in 1922. He also referred to the constructive work that is being done by 2500 Virginia farmers who are members of the Co-operative Peanut Growers' Association and the 35,000 Virginia farmers who are members of the Co-operative Tobacco Growers' Association. He declared that although sound management is an important factor in co-operative marketing, as in all other business enterprises, it is true that "an intelligent, loyal membership is the most important element in co-operative marketing." Negroes Own 1,700,000 Acres Thomas C. Walker, of Glouster Court House, a lawyer-farmer and a graduate of Hampton Institute, stated that in Virginia Negroes own 1,700,000 acres of land, not including city property. He declared that colored farmers of Virginia have won the respect of their white neighbors by cultivating their farms successfully and by organizing community clubs and school-improvement leagues, which have been real assets. "We must teach Negro boys and girls that the migration must be stopped. Too many are leaving fields of diamonds. Already 10,000 Negroes have left Virginia. We must tell young colored men to settle down and keep their feet on the soil. "All that the Negro wants, of the white man is a square deal. There are now some 65.00 Negro children in Vir out of a school population of 245.00 who are not in school. We must build good local schools and have good teachers. We ourselves must keep on giving for the education of our children. The county agents are agricul tral preachers and community builders. There are now about 10,000 Negro boys and girls in Virginia who have been neglected by their parents.

AGENTS WANTED BODYWORKING Write For Postcards Kingston, N.Y., Deputy Sheriff Shoots and Kills Colored Brickyard Worker Claimed Self-Defense and Is Released By County Official —Colored Citizens Are Indignant and Say Officer Should Be Tried For Cold-Blooded Murder. (Telegram to The New York Age) Kingston, N. Y.-Archie Wynn, one of the colored employees of an EEast Kingston brickyard, is dead as the result of a bullet wound through his intestines, the shot being fired by Deputy Sheriff Michael McCollough on Saturday night, June 23. that the bullet had perforated the intestines. The authorities are purging to make a thorough investigation and after examination by District Attorney Travers, McCollough was allowed to return to his home. Colored citizens of Kingston are considerably stirred by the horrific Wynn, said to have been one of the quietest and most peaceable of the men employed in the brickyard, had been attending a festival in Kingston and was on his way home when shot by McCullough. Although Wynn was unarmed, the officer has set up the plea of self-defense and was released on his own recognition. State troopers, who have their quarters near where the shooting occurred are said to have heard McCullough arguing with some one just prior to the shooting. Wynn was taken to the Kingston Hospital where he died on Monday night following, after an operation revealed Within ten years have handled 1900 of these boys and girls." Lorenzo C. White of Richmond, field secretary of the Negro Organization Society; stated that there are now some 600 Negro school leagues at work in Virginia. He outlined the work of the Negro Organization Society during the past ten years for the betterment of people through their schools, homes, and churches. This society was started at Hampton Institute. Negro Doctors For Negro Patients. (From New York World) Tuskegee, Ala., is in an upramp over race supremacy. The question has been raised, not by Tuskegee Institute, which never has offered the townpeople in its forty years, by the new $2,000-000 Federal hospital for the treatment of Negro war veterans. The leading citizens of Tuskegee state that they never would have allowed the hospital to be built in their neighborhood if the government had not provided for control by white men. They say they will not allow the hospital to open with Negroes in charge. The Negroes make no reply, but no changes have been made in the orders of Director Hines of the Veterans' Bureau that a Negro personnel be installed. If Director Hines feels that he may assemble a Negro personnel equal in medical and surgical task to any white staff available for the duty, there should be no change. The problem is clinical, not social. It is to be regretted if representations were made to the citizens of Tuskegee that control would go to white men. This seems to be the point which has captured the issue to be widely advertised and has changed a medical problem into a racial situation. However dangerous that situation may be, the solution lies in following the rule of medical efficiency. All other phases of the question are dwarfed by the prime consideration—that of the welfare of the Negro war veterans. If their interests are best furthered by doctors of their own race, and such doctors are found to be equal in skill to available white colleagues, the racial sensitivities of leading citizens and all questions of local pride and patronage are not worthy of consideration.

The authorities are preparing to make a thorough investigation and after examination by District Attorney Travers, McColloch was allowed to return to his home. Colored citizens of Kingston are especially stirred by the happenings especially since there seems to be consent action between the state troopers and the county officers to should Deputy Sheriff McColloch. They declare that it was, to their belief, a plan of murder, even though the perpetrator was a deputy sheriff, and that as Wash. unarmed the self defense plan in all bosh. The Rev. E. O. Clark, pastor of Zion Church, states that reports reaching indicate that a feverish spirit is causing the colored people, but that with the pastor of the other colored church is doing all he can to avoid any harm as a result of the unfortunate happenin- It is reported that Wynn was not only attended service on Sunday, June 14, the Franklin Street A. M. E. Z thru which in company with other young men she rendered the program at the Cincinnati Endowment service. The two partners of race churches declare that many of the men employed in the brickards are respectable and upright men, making honest living in support of their families. Some of them are working their way through school. While there are rough and lawless individuals in the various groups, the better element should have ample protection and a square feet. The charge is made that the deputy sheriff is totally unfit to be serving as an officer of the law. He is charged with being a notorious drunkard who was arrested not long since and find $10 in the City Court for being drunk and a dangerous man to be entrusted with a grim. A concerted effort is long planned to bring about the trial of Mr. Cullough for the killing of Wynn.

Joseph Stiles, who was assigned as pastor in charge of Bethel A M E. Church, Freeport, L. I at the last annual conference interest in churchdom seems to have been stirred to a high point during the past month. This village has the largest colored population east of Jamaica, yet church attendance for the past two or three years, has been far below other villages with a much smaller population. There are other Methodists in Freeport than any other denomination but what has been lacking for some time was a religious leader who could interest them in church worship especially Sunday mornings. Pastor Stiles having served some years ago as presiding elder of the Long Island District and knowing that all institutions must be systemized set out at one to organize a system in Bethel and that system is beginning to show the desired results. Pastor Stiles is fortunate not only in being a singing evangelist but Mrs. Stiles is an organist of ability and of great assistance to her husband. Last Sunday morning Rev Joseph Wallace a local preacher preached a very creditable sermon. In the afternoon the entire congregation journeyed to Westbury to attend quarterly conference.

THE NEW YORK AGE VIEWS .and REVIEWS By James Weldon Johnson, Contributing Editer. OUTHERN" POLITICAL ECONOMY EXPLODED. ; The exodus of colored people from the South ‘has exploded ; {good many Southern theories. Cine of the ‘most tenaciously. hele | theories in the South is that theory of political economy which pholds that those persons whose names are on the tax rolls pay al the taxes. This theory has always been quoted in the matter of public schools and public improvements. Southern cities and coun: ties and states haye tong proclaimed that the white people of the South were taxing themselves to educate colored children. This statement was made ty justify the inequitable apportionment of public school funds. ‘They have held that since all the money, .or ihe overwhelming part of it for public schools came out of the pockets of white tax-payers, thé colored people might be thankful for whatever part of it might be doled out to them. O8 coifise, no such theary is sound. Every person in any com- munity who rents a house or a hut or a shop, or who works, or who buys gods from the merchants of the community, pays taxes. Suppose such a theory as is advanced in the South should be held tain a city like New York where, relatively, only a very few people own real estate and pay taxes on it. What would become of the right to public schol education or the thousand and thousands af children whose parents rent heures and apartments. We have often said that if the Negra were suddenly taken out of the South the white people would very-soon realize how much less money there would he left in the public funds for public schools for any ether purposes. “The exodus fram the South is in a large macsure demonstrating the truth of that statement. It is a-demon- strativn which proves that every child in the community is entitted te equal participation in the public school funds, When states like South Carolina expend $10.70 per year far the education of cach white child and anly $1.09 a year for the education of each colored child, it is nothing less than highway robbery. Each col- ored child is actually being cheated out of $4.80 each year. Land owners in New’ York City would not for a moment thisk of saying. «iter they had collected rent from their tenants. paid their taXes and other fixed charges on the property, and put the rest of the income in their banks. that the children of their tenants were not enjitled te equal participation in that part of the taxes devoted to public schools, Every Negro in the South must live somewhere and therefore he must cither own the property where he lives or pay rent toa white of a colored landlord. In either rase he is paying taxes on the premises where he lives and hig chil- dren are entitled tothe same right ac the children of tenants inf: New York City. , . 2 The exodus, as we said, ic exploding a great many false theor- | es that hold good in the South. We hope it will be kept up long] mnough tw explode: the one about the appartiosment ef public {4 hood funds. 7 | HENRY FORD'S CANDIDACY. at at last Henry Ford's candidacy far das something were than ajoke. ” Ford's candidacy is being taken ma nt whieh is rsued by Charles D. Hy itteeman from New York State, M regarding Mr. Ford, “His candidae: cent the ahvions enavietion of at an who has created the meat pros. It seems that at last Henry Ford's candidacy for the presidency is being regarded as something wore than ajohe. The seriousnes with which Mr. Ford's candidacy is being taken may be estimatec from a statement whieh is sued by Charles D, Hilhs, Republicar National Cemimitteeman from, New York State, Mr. Hillis in hi; statement’ said, regarding Mr. Ford. “Is candidacy can be taken seriously becaiter of the ohyions conviction of a vast number o} people that a man who has created the mest prosserous manufac. turing enterprise the world has ever seen, who pads higher wages ahd who sells more automobiles at a lewer price than any other competitor, has evidenced the poetessinn of qualities which awould enable hirt to succeed as Mresident.” = Mr. Unilis in tis statement speaks athe “ligetry of Mr. Ford, He alse refers te the fact that twee million Jews may he counted upon’ ta appese any eferts made on the part of Mr. Ford or his friends teamake hen a presidential nominee, We hold no brief for Mi. Ford and are net particularly ine terested in whether he becames a candidate for the presidency: or not, but it is imteresting ta see the views ef those who are op: posed to lum as well as af those who are im iaver of him, There may be a number of good reasons why Mr. Ford should not he President, Int we are fereed to say that Mr. FUMES did not men tion them, Far instance, Mr. Hills «ard. “If polities is the science | oi government, the head cf our government and, therefore, the one to make a practical application of our polities, should be a man) versed in the science af government. The country might just as reasonably expect Mr. Ford, because of his automobile experience. ta write plays that would rival those of Shakespeare or produce a philosophy worthy of Plate.” The above stapement ix sheer nonesense. To say that it is just as reasonable to expect Mr. Ford tw write Shakespearean plays as to expect him te he able to be Presitent of the United States pecause he can mate automobiles is absurd. In the whole history 4 the United States there have heen less than a dozen Presidents who were men of first rate intelligence. The great majority of our Presidents have heen men of moderate and even medincre intellic fence, In dart, we suspect that a man of the highest intelhgence vould be a litth eout of place as President of the United States. Mr. Hillis’ contention seems to be that Ford avauld, not be ble to make a President hecause up to the present time he has ven ne pranf of knowing anything except how to make the], heapest antemabiles in the world, sell more antomebiles than | nyhedy in the werld, run the biggest automobile plant in the) vor, pay the best waues of anybody in the warld, and accumulate [} pore money than any bedy inthe warld, But we have elected men |! 6 the presidency before naw who, up to the time of their election, || ave evidence of knowing qniy one thing, We have elected af: umber «i men to the presidency who before their election had }j ever heen anything but solders, and it is possible that a man}: rho knows enly haw to conduct a plant which employs thousands | fF rxen in industry might not do much worse than a man whol? new only haw to command thousands of men in the business] f killing” others. . } What Mr. Hillis has to say about the. science of government nd of then versed in this science does not, aiter all, carry much] snviction. “Is there really any science of government? We may|t yeak about the science of chemistry, ar of physics, or of mathe-|! atics, and know what we are talking about.

The occasion which drew ferth Mayor Curley's fire was a protest made by three former reudents af Boston against the naming of a Negro honor pupil to read the Declaration of Inde- pendence from the haleany af the old State House as part of the Fourth of July exercises Why theee three former Rovtoniane who naw recide in Charlotte, No, felt it sseumbent upon them to make this proetst is not quite clear ex- cept that they wished te curry favor with the North Carolina whites by advocat- ing “the supremary,of the white race.” Mayne Culey minced na words in com- ploing with the request of these three panders 10 race prejudice and intoler- ance, After a stinging characterization of their letter as “lacking in good man: ners.” ‘devoid of Americaniem,” “desti- ite ef all knowledge af the principles an) practices of eur government” and “ottenuvely “ind stupidly impertinent,” he expressed catisfaction that this ill mannered effusion was not writtert by any native ‘Carotinian, He refused to accept them as the spokesman of the State and tie children of the men who fought and died for human freedom at King’s Mountain. Mayor Curley set forth the reason why Charles C. Dogan was selected for he honor conferred upon him, declaring hat his selection was “an expression of yur reconition of the services of his ace in Massachusetts to human freedom | ind democratic government.” Said the nayor further: “Any man of any race, | olor or creed who is willing and wortay |: o serve the Flag and die for the Re-|' ublic is worthy to have his place in the | un of American Democracy.” f Mayor Curley's d ‘sounds’ like | ne right sort of pea warranted not to| 1 ade nor bleach, when sittmitted te the est of immersion inthe boiting waters | f a political campaign. “In these days f hen party plattorms have ceased tol ean much to the voters of fe race,| i ja the character sah reo of the}t remdidetes thet aupst be sudied in order a Play they were doing? If they. did they all ought to be tried for high treason to the human race.” 7 te - We do not know whether Mr: Ford wants the’ nomination or hot. We do not know what his chances would be'if he got it or whether or not he could be elected. He might make the worst President we have ever had if be were elected, but because he is not versed in the “s¢ience of government” and only knows how to tun the biggest manufacturing plant in the world is not a very good and convincing reason for saying that he is absolutely unfitted to hold down the job of Président. ‘. . ———___—_—_. . “TOO MUCH GOVERNMENT.” Ex-Senator Beveridge was the “Runker Hill” orator at the dinner of the Sons of the Revolution in Bosten. He made a speech in which he attacked the World Court claiming that such a court would mean too much government. He claimed that.if such a tribunal had existed in 1776 the United States would still ke a British colony, Mr. Reveridge. hefore he finished his speech, came down from the, consideration of too much government in world affairs to too much government in’ purely’ local affairs, He stated that American’.are by law forbidden to do more things and by law forced to ddimore things in more ways than were the Kussian people under the Czar or the German people under the Kaiser. As an explanation of the increase in taxes and the spread of dis- content he said: “Komaider thiy appalling face -on- adult perwsn out of every twenty. Persons engaged in business or industry in thiy country is a government agent, official or employee. I mean, of course, all government, county, city, state and natiohal.” If Senator Beveridge’s figures are correct, this, indeed, is an appalling fact. Think of it—one person out of every. twenty adults is on the payroll of the government, cither national, stete, county or municipal. We may or we may not be too much governed, but if Senator -Beveridge’s figures are right. we certainly have too many people doing the governing. : LLOYD GEORGE ON PROHIBITION. | The seizure of the liquor stores on certain foreign ships ir the Port of New York last week caused considerable local and British excitement. United States officials went aboard a British ship and broke the sealx of the liquor stores which had been placed there by British customs officers. These seals were intended ta show that the liquor way‘not to be opened in the United States but was to be used on the homeward trip after the ship had passed the three-mile limit. : Naturally, there was a good deal of excitement in England over this incident and there was.a good deal of hot air expanded over it. Mr. Lloyd George made an utterance of remarkably cool common sense, He<ounselled the English people not to get ex- cited over the seizure of the liquor in New York harbor and de- clared that America was not only well within her rights but that the English people ought to extend a certain measure of sympathy to her in her difficulties. He said, “America is making a very bold experiment to deal with probably the greatest curse of: modern civilization, She has, tried many experiments but they have been, only comparative successes. She has made the decision, with a courage that characterizes that great people, to try the prohibition experiment, one that has never been made on this earth before. Let us give her a fair chance.” . We are by no means frantic about prohibition, nor are we entirely sure that it will. bring in the millenium that was promised, Iut we are absolutely in sympathy with the effort to give it a fair trial, It has been claimed that alcoholic drink has heen the cause of the majority of human woes and sufferings. If that is true, it ix right to abolish it or to restrict it to the lowest point possible. The United States is making this experiment and the experiment ought to be a fair one. If the experiment is fairly made and it is found that the abolishment of alcoholic drink does measurably increase human health and happiness and well-being, the whole world will eventually adopt the policy adopted by America, If, on the other hand, prohibition fairly tried fails to bring any of these vdvantages in any degree, the world will not bother with it and America will finally discredit it; but, we repeat, it ought to be riven an absolutely fair trial. Democracy Vindicated: to decide how to cast a baller. Rea debrcracy needs more outspoken and courageous advocates like Mayor Curiey regardicss of the party label they may carry. As for the three reereant Bostonians who sought to curry favor by pandering to the prejudices they found in North Carolina they are probably as heartily despised by their new neighbors as by their former ones. The pander may he used as a tool, but he is never paid in the coin of respect. Placed ir the pile lory of public scorn by the Mayer's re. buke, they may be left to learn wise dom by reflection, 7 Howard's Medical Endowment.

White "Shuffle Along" Co., No. 2, Winning Laurels on Pacific Coast----Playing San Francisco Recent Newspaper Comment Indicates That Name of John Vaughner, Who Died in Los Angeles and Was Buried in N.Y., June 14, Is Carried on Program. That "Shuffle Along" Co., No. 2, now playing on the Pacific Coast, is winning for itself laurels that compare favorably with those attained by the original company, which disbanded here in the East just two weeks ago, after nearly two years of unqualified success, is shown by the reception accorded the second company by Coast audiences. The San Francisco Examiner of June 25 carried an account of the "Shuffle Along" performance that was written by the Duncan Sisters, white musical comedy and vaudeville stars, who saw the performance in New York City of the original company, and who were in some way misled into thinking that the San Francisco performance was by the same group. However that may be, their comment is of so favorable a nature and so interestingly written, that is reprinted for the benefit of readers of The Age's Theatrical Page. PAGE SIX In The Realm By Lucien "Shuffle Along" Winning Laurel Coast---Play Recent Newspaper Comment John Vaughner, Who Die Buried in N.Y., June 14 That "Shuffle Along" Co., No. 2, no for itself laurels that compare favora company, which disbanded here in the two years of unqualified success, is show company by Coast audiences. The San Francisco Examiner of June Along performance that was written comedy and vaudeville stars, who saw the original company, and who were in San Francisco performance was by the comment is of so favorable a nature and for the benefit of readers of The Age's Last night from a second-story box in the Columbia Theatre, we saw "Shuffle Along" for the second time. We had to go up to the second tier of boxes because there were no seats obtainable anywhere else in the house. It was a splendid audience, with a sprinkling of colored people, who seemed almost as enthusiastic as those on the stage. The top gallery, with every seat filled, was all white, however. The first time we saw "Shuffle Along" was at a midnight performance in the Sixty-third Street Theatre, where it had a New York run of two years; maybe more. The show was so popular that they had to give extra performances, beginning at midnight; and it was only for one of those that we were able to get seats. That was just before we started for Europe. Last night the company seemed better than it was in New York. Perhaps that was because we knew all that was coming and enjoyed a good deal by way of anticipation. And the girls are better drilled now than they were then. Of that we are positive. As we outstretch are getting ready to play a musical comedy version of "Uncle Tom's Cabin" we found special interest in all the expert colored work that we saw last night. The makeup was well worth close study for anybody who intends at any time to do blackface out the stage. Some of the members of the "Shuffle Along" company are very light in color, but they all show through understanding of comedy, dance and song as we associate there with the Negroes of the South, and in presenting the comedy characteristics of the race they were meant to be living. The best colored makeups we have ever seen were on the Columbia stage last night, with the faces of some of the actors made the perfect black that we want for Uncle Tom in the musical comedy we are rehearsing. And how those players loved the work! Every step and every motion seemed electrically rhythmic as we watched from our second story box. And with what natural jazz they danced! And how they enjoyed the comedy! The fun of it all was contagious, and we couldn't join in the singing in the theater downstairs suddenly enough so that people downstairs wouldn't notice us. Emma Jackson, the prima donna of the company, has a lovely voice, with good songs in which to use it. The only criticism we have to make is that the beautiful "Love Will Find a Way," which Miss Jackson sings with Theo McDmond, was taken at too fast a tempo—much faster than when we heard it in New York. "Wild About Harry" is another of the fine songs in which this prima donna is heard. Everyone who knows this song—which, of course, has become popular all over the country—should hear it sung by Miss Jackson and the Jimtown Harry Boys, and should see the cakewalk at the end. As we are to have a cakewalk in our own show, we were greatly interested in this one. "Bandanna Days," is a lovely song; but nearly all of them are lovely as sung by this company. In "Gypsy Blues" the orchestra was too loud. The comedy work is of good class. John Vaughner, who plays Steve Jenkins, candidate for mayor, is a great comedian, a natural-born funny man. He can make an audience roar (and he did it last night) by simply opening his mouth. Of course, nature has bestowed upon him some advantage in this. Every word that he utteres every gesture, every bit of expression, is given just the right comedy value. Edgar Connors, his partner, also has the true comedy nature. In the "Slippery Jim" dance, Manton Morton proved himself a marvel. "Slippery Jim" partly describes him, but doesn't tell how expert and original he is. He has a great deal of originality. There are a number of skillful colored musicians in the orchestra, and the pianist is great. We are less accustomed to reviewing than being reviewed, but we want to assure the public that "Shuffle Along" is a big and good show, and as it was all the rage for such a long time in New York it ought to be very popular here. There is one discrepancy that should be remedied by the management. Evidently, John Vaughner is still being billed as a member of the cast, when, as a matter of fact, this popular comedian died suddenly in Los Angeles and his body was shipped to New York and buried on June 14 from M. Olivet Baptist Church. The San Francisco engagement was played the week of June 24, and the above comment appeared in the drummer on Monday, June 25. Another review of the show, printed in the San Francisco Chronicle on the same date, made special reference also to the work of John Vaughner. Whoever the understory is should get credit for his work, and the shade of Vaughner permitted rest in peace. The understory evidently possess sufficient talent to carry the government on his own name. Harry T. Burleigh Gives Program of His Spirituals To B'klyn Congregation The parishioners and friends of Ocean Parkway Methodist Episcopal Church, Ocean Parkway at Foster avenue, the Rev. W. C. Chelp, pastor, one of the most influential white congregations in Brooklyn, enjoyed an unusual treat on Sunday evening, June 24, when they heard a program of Negro Spirituals presented by Harry T. Burleigh, who was referred to as "the eminent composer and high authority." Mr. Burleigh, assisted by both mixed and male quartets and soloists, gave an interesting and comprehensive program of Spirituals to which he had given definite musical shape, his work constituting, according to the Brooklyn Standard-Union, "a valuable and unique addition to the music of the world."

J.—Leroy Brown of Brooklyn, New York's colored marble title holder and winner of the Evening World gold medal, was eliminated in the first round of the National Marble Shooting Championship here on June 26. His conqueror was Walter Pate, the thirteen-year-old colored champion of Chicago. Five matches were necessary to decide the contest. Brown took the first two, each 8 points to 5. Then the Chicago sharp-shooter settled down and took the next two, each by the same one-sided margin of 11 points to 2. The fifth match had hardly been started when the New York lad executed a clever "splash" shot, but failed to send two marbles out of the ring by a matter of inches. What was worse his white "shooter" also stopped just inside the boundary line. Like a huge grasshopper, the Chicago youth jumped around to a close-up position for the inviting target. Taking deliberate aim, Pete sent his opponent's shooter flying out of the ring, and this "kill" shot ended the contest. The matches were held on a special clay ring on the beach. Thousands lined the boardwalk while ropes and lines of police kept hundreds of hathers from the arena. Mayor Edward L. Bader, after posing with the forty city champions from all parts of the United States, attempted to give an exhibition with the agates, but surrendered his assignment when the impatient youths began urging him to give the regular shooters a chance. New York and Chicago had the only colored champions in the contest, and these were paired because of the two cities having the largest population. At the close of the contest, Leroy congratulated his opponent and returned to Hotel Ridley where he broke the news of his defeat to his mother. Baltimore Black Sox to Play Lincoln Sunday Sunday, July 7, at Protectory Oral, East Tremont avenue, near 180th street, the Lincoln Giants will enage in what should be the greatest double header of the season when they play the famous Baltimore Black Sox, of the Eastern Colored League. This is the first appearance of the Black Sox around New York City and as they have in their lineup among officers, Blaine Hask, who made a wonderful record as a fighter with the Lincoln: Miller, the great third baseman, and Rokk, the former star Coburn cather, the fans should turn out in great numbers to watch the work of their former First Session Since Playing Opening Season Held in Philadelphia—Good Reports.

Hirschman, chairman of the athletic committee of the Wilco A. A. Edwin O. Gordun, holder of the world's broad jump record, has written that he will take part in the Wilco A. A. games at the Yankee Stadium on September 8, and that he expects to go to the Olympic games next summer as a broad jumper on the American team. It is thought that the broad jump feats of DeHart Hubbard of the University of Michigan, who in the recent intercollegiate championship meet came within an inch of Gordun's record of 25 feet. 3 inches, has brought the champion out of temporary retirement. Unless Gordun's record is equaled or beaten, he will have first choice for a place on the American team in the next Olympiad. In connection with the Wilco games, Mr. Hirshon announces that the entry of H. F. V. Edward, the colored sprinter of England who ran third in the 100-meter and 200-meter races of the last Olympics, and who also won the 100-yard, 220 and 440-yard English championships last year, all in one day, had been secured. He hopes to secure the entry of Defiant Hubbard before the time expires for the entries to be in. The female band now being constructed by Harry and Laura Prampin, will we build from the ground up.

O. to Willie Walker in 9th Round of 15-Round Bout at Commonwealth Club on Saturday Night, June 30—Walker Had Put Up Good Fight Till Then. Panama Joe Gans successfully defended his middleweight title against Willie Walker at the Commonwealth Sporting Club on Saturday on Saturday day night, June 30, by scoring a knockout over his opponent after thirty-two seconds fighting in the ninth round. The end came unexpectedly, as Walker seemed strong at the end of the eighth and had won aout as many rounds as his opponent. In the sixth round he shook the champion with a hard body punch, but in the next two rounds, Gans succeeded in putting his opponent on the defensive. Before the fight a majority of the spectators were of the opinion that Gans would be defeated, as many thought he was slipping. He proved to be in superb condition and as the fight progressed showed himself to be the same brainy fighter he always was and able to hit as hard. He was much faster than his younger opponent and outgested him all the way. Greensboro, N. C. Greenshore, N.

Matt. 7.7.8—Ack and it will be given you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. The Lord Jesus meant those we were meant for the people, to whom He is also for that matchless servant on the Earth, for all time. They seem to be especially applicable to the Negro in the United States because to him many privileges are denied, advantages hidden and doors closed, advantages continually ask, seek and knock forward to throw off the handicaps of Negro ignorance and superstition stand in the way of his coming in to work. Therefore, my prayer is that the Negro in this country will look on the scripture which we confer this week, is coming from the coming time of Jesus direct to him, followed Make it clear that "it will be given you" if we agree we would regard this condition and promise as meant for practically we should not have to go along without so many things that would be ours for the asking. With inclination to overlook or make any excuse for the white man's prejudice against the Negro, it is but fair to say that if we would ask for them, things denied us now would be fine. White men are ready to help us better accommodations on the train. But we are not asking for them. The masses of our people them Negroes of wealth and power suffer the humiliation of the present crop" regulations with a word of complaint. This is so great that when an occasional Negroist and asks for better accommodations, he is looked upon by time as an agent. Too many of our busy men stand in with the conditions and ride at reduced rates. Those who do not obligate themselves to the course that they cannot protest against anything. They are paying too much for little rebate they get. It is coming them self-respect and the freedom to ask for better treatment on carriages. The Corporation Commission is supported by public taxation. The Negro, therefore, contributes to its maintenance. That Commission, I know from personal experience, will investigate every complaint brought before it, without reference to the complexion or race of the complainant. Much could be toward making better conditions in appreciable numbers, we would ask that it be done. We suffer as a race in many respects because we fail to use our askers. In the matter of parks, play-grounds, lights, sewer, better school facilities, etc., we lack, not only because of the white man's prejudice but also because we do not ask for relief along these lines. If we ask and in the interest of the Negro child for the town, which rightly belong to us, fair-minded white men and women will join in the appeal until it is granted. We have because of past experiences and because God's word says, "Ask and it will be given you." and you will find, is the command succeeded by promise. In these things it is only necessary that, but for others we must seek advantages and friendliness. These do not come just for the making us members of the Negro land our energies towards seeking a family for all racial丝. This must be done through interracial generation—the practice of the better element of both races getting together in a community for the express purpose of making local conditions comfortable to the well being of all connoisseurs of we seek patience, self-control, opportunity, privilege, and the arising influence of the Holy Spirit, which is found; and with them, an experience of such "peace on earth, all good will towards men" as was placed by the angels who announced the birth of Jesus, to the twelve disciples of Judea. It may also: "Knock and the Clerk is opened to you." To ask which is plainly before us and to seek for and hidden friends. We must knock at a keep us from the until those doors are Every place upon which it is our priv- erely knoof. Just let your thinker work and a field of service will open where you calculated to deepen your ingress to God and men while a accomplishments will rise in the way how mightly God can be the and erring mankind in His gram for kingdom building. Re- cently he is always he who asks for the who seeks that finds, the knoofs that has the door grew him. NEWS OF THE CHURCHES On Sunday, July 1, the pastor, the Rev. Dr. John W. Robinson, was the speaker at the morning and evening services and preached powerful, sermons to unusually large congregations. The text of the morning sermon was Genesis, 9:26 Theme: "The sacredness of human life." At the conclusion of his sermon, Dr. Robinson installed the newly elected officers of the Floral Circle with well chosen marks. Memorial flowers were donated by Mrs Hattie R. Hasel, in memory of the late Miss Mary Jones, who was for many years a prominent member of the church and an ardent worker in class No. 3. In the afternoon and evening, services were held in the tent erected on the site on which the new church is to be built, located at 13th and 13th streets and Pigerombe and St. Nicholas avenues. During the months of July and August, services will be held in the tent every Sunday and every week day evening. Subsequent announcements will be made as to the prominent preachers who will assist Dr. Robinson in conducting these services. Rev. R. A. Bolden, pastor of Bieler Memorial Church, Williamsbridge, will be in charge of the services during the week beginning Monday, July 2. The text of Dr. Robinson's evening sermon was Proverbs 1:10.

Good singing, in the leading of which the pastor will take a prominent part, will be one of the principal features of the meetings. Sunday, July 8, Holy Communion will be administered in the church at the morning service, instead of in the evening as heretofore; also baptism of adults and children. St. Luke's Episcopal Mission - Sunday was another splendid day at the mission. It being the first Sunday, a large number of persons partook of the Holy Communion at both services. Everything moved off at the appointed time with the mission's usual promptness. The vicar, Rev. Scott Wood, was the celebrant at both services. The choir was at its best. Dr. Scota Wood preached from St. Eulsa 12 chapter and 20th verse, "But God said unto him, thou fool this night thy soul shall be required of three." These are God's words applied to a very rich man. I would not dare call any of you here today a fool. But God so called the rich man. And when God speaks it is well for us all to listen and take heed. This story of the rich fool never grows old. We are not told much about the history of this man, but Jesus knew him, watched, no doubt, his yearly ingatherings of abun-darn harvests. Saw him getting richer and richer each year, watched to see if he would appreciate and make good use of the blessings, which riches brought to him, watched to see if he made good use of his money, for money is only worth while if those who have it use it for the good of their fellowmen and the glory of the God. The mere creature comfort which the travails of the human soul. The rich man kept on boarding riches. Jesus came time and seeking fruit from the rich tree, finding none. Then the sentence cut him down, why cumbereth the ground? Another great harvest; stewards tell him of overfilled barns, unstored cranes, no place to bestow his streets. He has abundance; much more than he needs; fails to hear the cry from hungry mouth; seems the poor stricken, tired, weary beggars, of the streets. But he tells the steward, "To tomorrow I will build new barns. I will say to my soul, now, soul: I have plenty, take the thine case; drink and be merry." And that night the rich man's soul was required of him. But this story is not only for the rich man. It is for all who think more of the present world than of the world to come. Don't set your heart too strongly on things temporal. They cannot last Mother Zion Church. The 11 o'clock sermon at Mother Zion Church Sunday morning. July 1, was preached by Dr. J. W. Brown, the pastor. Prior to its beginning, Dr. Brown requested all present to bow and engage their hearts a few moments in silent prayer. The theme of this discourse was "New Path." Text for we have not passed this way here-[o]r Jesus. 3:4. He recalled the preparations made by the Children of Israel before crossing the Jordan to enter the promised land of Canaan. They were to sanctify themselves in order to be able to witness the great and marvelous things that God purposeted to and did do, among them. The call to walk in "New Path" was made by the speaker. He admonished the members of the church not to be slothful in the performance of their duty toward the construction of the new church, which work is to start immediately. He emphasized the importance of punctuality, and urged promptness in the discharge of duty. He pictured the realization of the new church, complete in construction and well equipped for service, filled with a congregation of worshippers singing songs of praise, to the highest. The entire discourse was delivered with much emotion, attesting burning zeal of the speaker to do all he can in this great and important work. At its close, 15 persons were received into the church. The Sunday-school convened at 2 o'clock. As the summer season is on, many are leaving the city for the vacation period. There were over 400 pupils and teachers present.

Abyssinian Baptist Church. There has been no appreciable decrease either in the congregations or in the offerings, since the closing of the dedicatory exercises. The pastor delivered a sermon on "The Uplifted Jesus," at 11 a.m. to an audience that occupied every seat in the big auditorium. About 700 people commenced in the afternoon and Rev. S. A. Jordan of Pittsburgh preached to a large audience in the evening. Forty-one persons united with the church during the day; among them were Mrs. Lucille Shephard, the wife of the Rev.

Dr. Hyder delivered the first of his series of sermons for the month of July on the subject: "Should the United States go into the permanent New Court of International Justice?" The pastor discussed the duty of church members in helping to build up a national sentiment favorable to taking this first great step toward a warless world. Dr. Hyder dwelt at some length on the mistaken attitude of many colored people who say that the subject does not concern the colored groups of people by showing that what politically, socially and economically all the different units of the nation; and that black people now have the opportunity to give to the world a concrete demonstration that they stand for the orderly processes of law and order as against anarchy and mobile either in the U. S. or among nations. Two new members joined the church at the close of the sermon and one inward was baptized. A pretty wedding was solemnized in the church at 9:30 a.m. At 12:00 p.m. the pastor with the choir and congregation conducted the services at the Metropolitan Baptist Church on 12:00 street. At the evening service Communion was administered to a large congregation. Next Sunday, Dr. Hyder will discuss the subject: "The white Psychology of colored Harlem." Every red blooded colored man and woman in Harlem should hear Dr. Hyder's series of sermons this month on the general theme, civilization rather than swaggerism. First Emmanuel Church. At the eleven clock services on Sunday, Pastor Balden preached from the text, "But the fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, long suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance; against such there is no law." Galatians 5:22, 23. He said: Burbank the great scientist, horticulturist, has given the world a new order of pant and fruit development. By the process of grafting as regards trees we are told that he is able to produce several varieties of fruits upon the same tree. The human mind through the process of spiritual grafting is able to manifest various fruit thoughts. The mind into which our Lord Jesus, the Emmanuel, dwells shows forth fruit of love, that great principle, that the wonderful preacher, Henry Drummond called "The greatest thing in the world." The attempt to use dimensions to describe its bounds, is futile. For it is an ever-present, endless, eternal factor. Joy is a fruit that will not grow in nature's harren soil. All we can boast, till Christ we know, is vanity and toil. But where the Lord has planted grace And made His glories known. There fruits of heavenly joy and peace Are found and there alone." "Those that are conscious of the indwelling presence of our Lord recognize that love, joy and peace are so entwined that they may find their most stimulating expression in the following lines: "A bleeding Saviour seen by faith. A sense of pardoning love. A hope that triumphs over death. Gives joys like those above. To take a glimpse within the veil. To know that God is mine; Are springs of joy that never fail. Unspeakable divine." These are the joys that satisfy And sanctify the mind; Which makes the spirit mount oighh And leave the world behind." "The inward fruits are individual- atic, the external fruits are socialistic. Hence a Godly mind suffers long and is kind, is gentle without cowardice, and good without bigotry. These fruits in human society produces radiant energy, stimulating divine life and a holy community. The last three fruits manifesting Godly life are important for strengthening and "inspiring the life of others. For without, Faith we can neither please God, or truly help our fellow man. With it, in His name, we can triumph over all evil, and make the natural order subservient to our will. A knowledge and right use of the power in faith reveals to the ob- sERVER the beautiful fruit of madness and the careful, cautious fruit, tem- perature.

THE NEW YORK AGE Comments By The On Sayings of The Norfolk Journal and Guide, mildly questions the propriety of the wearing of cap and gown by high school graduates. It said: There is something about the cap and gown on a high school graduate that suggests too much finish. At best a college diploma is just a piece of paper to certify that the holder has passed through. Whether he is educated or not remains to be seen. The truly educated person is modest and rarely seen attired in the habiliments of much learning. The high school graduate is just beginning to molest his feet in the processes of education and he seems rather premature for the cap and gown or achievement of a high school diploma is lost by the wearing of modest street clothes at graduation. The practice may be good but the Journal and Guida believes that the cause of real education will be helped if the high school graduate is taught to think of the cap and gown as something appropriate to wear when one finishes college or university. This view of the matter has much to commend it, unless the cap and gown has been adopted as a uniform costume of inexpensive character, to prevent the rivalry in dress that might embarrass those pupils of straited circumstances. As the emblematic garb of scholarship, however, it should be reserved for the college graduate. The Birmingham Reporter, in urging its readers to "register, pay your poll tax and vote," argued as follows: Many hundreds of our tax-payers are not registered. They cannot protect their property; they cannot protect the man who desires to; they are of but little aid, if any, to themselves or the Government. Hundreds are registered and will not pay their poll tax. They are not citizens and should not be respected Our Lord's saying is true "Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?" St. Matthew 7-15, 16. The Sunday-school was opened at the usual hour by superintendent William H. Hogans. Miss Karlline Blanche received a prize as being the one to raise the highest amount of money, which was given in on Children's Day Miss Maggie Johnson commended the girls who had made their own dresses in the club which is conducted in the church. These girls were their dresses to the Sunday-school. The Literary Society convened at 4:30, Mrs. Daisie Coleman having of the program. It was a very uplift- BROOKLYN Newman Mem. Church. The proximity of Independence Day caused the Rev. Thomas W. Cooper, pastor of Newman Memorial M. E. Church, Herkimer street and Russell place, between Saratoga and Hopkinson avenues, to give the color of patriotism to his morning sermon on July 1. His subject was "Patriotism, acknowledgement God" based on the text found in Deterotomy 269. He gave a strong exposition of the subject, showing that loyalty to country was an absolute essential to 'obedience to God and secondly to love of God.' The choir sang "America" preceding the sermon. Two hymn statues, "Oh for a closer walk with God" (Myles Herdherd is) (Shelley), with Mrs Freeda Smalley Brooks, soprano, and Mrs Ethel Fletcher McMillan, contralto as solistos. The evening sermon was based on Luke 22:10 subject, "The effect of a look" Holy communion, was administered by Pastor Cooper, assisted by Local Preacher, Everett Payne.

Burgey Wood Park Park as such. As a matter of fact, the poll tax is a educational charge and should be collected by force of law. We can have no genuine respect for our government unless we concern ourselves in the making of its laws and their administration. The best way to do this is to send men to the legislature. Congress and aid in the election of other others. There is a curios notion in the heads of a great many intelligent men and men of the Negro race and that when they register they become politicians, or they must be politicians. That is very foreign to the rule, in the white race there are big factions politicians. A man or a woman is either negligible who is without interest in politics. The contention that we need to register and vote in defence of good government, as well as in defence of our own people, as made by the Reporter, is well grounded. Despite all discouragement, the course advocated by the Birmingham editor should be pursued. The editor of the Galveston City Tunnel made a plea for greater recognition of the pioneers in business lines. MEN AND WOMEN enjoying their support, by public position don't need to be honored over men and women who are making things show by their enterprise upon their own works, of worth. That young man or woman of community whose life is effort of enterprise and Snow business tact and honest dealing are the ones to be encouraged and backed up more, as such means a business foundation to be raised among the race. Editor Noble is right in his contention that the business builders are in worthy of honor, as those who achieve distinction through the holding of public office. It depends largely on the manner in which they acquit themselves in earlier capacity: ing and inspiration At 7:30, Miss M Anderson and Mrs J. Sisco had charge of the praise and prayer service. Their topic for discussion was "Hope." The evening services were very impressive. Pastor Hollen spoke on the true meaning of Independence Day. He also spoke on the many coloured men and women, very few of whom the children of the people, know, who did great things in the making and build-up of this our American continent. Among these mentioned were Benjamin Banneker, Phyllus Wheatley, and many others, who children of today don't read of in history, but who nevertheless were outstanding characters. The dinner was served during the day by the members of the S. M. & L. Society. CHURCHES Fleet St. Church, Brooklyn. Remarkable services were held throughout Sunday, with accordingly large audiences. At 10 45 a.m. in the pasture, the Rev Dr. W. C. Brown, on "The greatness of John the Baptist." He carried his congregation to a great height of spiritual essay as he told John's receding power as he introduced the Christ by the Jordan, and the mission on which John sent his disciples to inquire, "Art Thou Christ?" or, "Shall we look for Another?" The miracles in answer to this query gave sight to the blind, speech to the dumb, unstopping the ears of the deaf, making the lame to walk, and raising the dead to life, was sufficient to cause those who had followed John to follow after the Christ. Sufficient is He to day for the world's true example. Infant baptism followed the sermon. Bishops P. A. Wallace, and W. I. Lee worshiped with Pastor Brown and congregation, and the Rev Dr. F. M. Jacobs assisted the pastor in administering the rites of infant baptism. LASTER CQTAGE Spring Lake Beach, N. J., is situated on the beautiful New Jersey coast, seventy miles from New York City.

The combination of a room full of young folks—filled with the sheer joy of living—lots of good music and plenty of home-made cake and candy and ice cream is hard to beat! There are so many simple, wholesome joys in life that most of us are missing. It is really too bad. Swimming is one of them! We have been missing it ourselves until about ten days ago, and now every time we go into the pool and flounder around in our amateur efforts to swim we wonder how anybody can pass up the wonderful exhilaration that comes from a dip in the pool. There are always two instruction periods (Three on Tuesdays) every day except Saturday. The first contingent is off for camp Miss Sarreals, girls work secretary, left with a group of girls on Saturday morning for Fern Rock and the unique joy of camping.

Home Nurse Training Class Conducted Under Red Cross Auspices Doing Good Work Thirty-seven graduates in home nurse training under direction of the American Red Cross, trained under supervision of Mrs. Jeroline H. Winfield, R. N., completing their work on Tuesday evening, June 26, at the 135th street branch of the New York Public Library, brought the number of women who have taken this course in home-hygiene and care of the sick to well-nigh one thousand. The-home nurse training class was established in Harlem in 1919 as a result of the active interest and unremitting effort of Miss Frederika Farley, director of the Teacher Center, New York County Chapter, American Red Cross with headquarters at 24 Fifth avenue. Miss Farley has had the assistance of Mrs. Winfield, one of the most competent nurses of the race, and their combined work has resulted in the training of nearly a thousand mothers, wives and daughters of the race in Harlem in a course that prepared and equipped them for taking care of the sick in their own home, and of the emergency as might come to them. Quarters for training of these classes were supplied by the New York Public Library in its 135th street branch building, and the classes have met several times a week for instruction and training under Mrs. Winfield. The course as mapped out by Miss Farley and her assistant Red Cross nurses, covers handling, sings, baths, trays, trays, changing of clothing, making, managing of fainting, convalescence patients, and various other incident duties in the care of the sick and of the home during illness in the house. At stated intervals the classes, numbering twenty-five to thirty-five, have finished the course and in each case public graduation exercises have marked their being granted diplomas. The last class, numbering thirty-five, has been Winfield with Mrs. Winfield presiding with addresses by prominent citizens, and with presentations to the Teacher Center Department of the New York County Chapter and to various individuals. With Mrs. Winfield at its head, the graduating class entered the auditorium to music rendered by Mrs. Simmons, piano; C. Small, violinist; and B. Wattley, drummer. An interesting class was given by members of the class as follows: by several other artists, as follows: Piano, solo; Mrs. Simmons; "Swing low, sweet charm; audience!" address, Miss Porter; recitation, Mrs. Smith; piano solo, Miss Carter; "What the Red Cross means to our community," Mrs. Spence, solo; Mrs. Stewart; recitation, Mrs. Strickland; violin solo, Mr. Small; dance, the street Sisters; The Red Cross, Dr. Gerritte M. Faide; class history, Mrs. Lasa; addresses, James H. Hubert; Mrs. Beaty of Tampa, Fla.; Rev. A. C. Garner, Thomas and Fred R. Moore. In his address, Mr. Moore referred to the work of Miss Farley, emphasizing its great value to the community and to the women in the homes. On behalf of the class, Mrs. Eva T. Farley, a former graduate of 52% in the Teaching Center Department of the New York County Chapter as a contribution to the work of the home training classes. Miss Farley was unable to be present in person, but the class sent a beautiful fliute to her as a token of appreciation for her splendid work. Another handsome floral offering was made to Mrs. Winfield, the instructor, and the teacher. Mrs. Winfield gave the class by Mrs. Eva T. Parks was recognized by the presentation to her of a purse containing $15. Mrs. Winfield presented certificates of graduation to members of the class and the Rev. A. C. Garner pronounced the benediction. The roll of the class is as follows: Misses La Mar, Lewis, Porter, Semper, McKinney, West, Partee, Stewart, Brown, Douglas, Rawls, Freeman and Hepon; Medames Cook, Chambers, Donglass, Henderson, Jones, Iomas, Keller, Summons, Spence, Stone, Smith, Washington, Brant, Baker, Stewart, Trophy, Leonard, Iard, Lae, Johnson, James, Willis, Robins, Lae.
