Ten out of Eleven Supervisory Positions are Held by Race Women, the Only White Head Nurse Being In Charge of the Operating Ward, States Official. MANY PROSPECTIVE STUDENTS APPLY FOR ADMISSION TO THE HARLEM TRAINING SCHOOL FOR WOMEN NURSES AT HOSPITAL Securing Negro Internes for Harlem Hospital Now a Matter of Moment—Attitude of Medical Board and Housing Problem Indicated as Controlling Factors That the officials of Bellevue and Allied Hospitals were sincere in their proclaimed intention of giving place, as rapidly as qualified nurses could be secured, to colored graduate nurses on the staff of Harlem Hospital, is shown by the statement made to The Age by an executive of that institution to the effect that the nurse personnel is now complete and that ten of eleven supervisory positions are being filled by Negro nurses. News Briefs of General Interest The twenty-fourth annual session of the National Negro Business League, Dr. Robert Russa Moton, president, will be held at Hot Springs, Ak. from Wednesday, August 15, to Friday, the 17th. A welcome address is to be delivered by Governor C. McRae, and there is to be a "get-together" meeting of all life members. The Connectional Young People's Congress of the African Methodist Preschool Church is to be held August 15-20 with Payne Chapel A. M. E. Church, Avenue C and 18th street, South, Birmingham, Ala. Bishop W. A. Fountain and A. J. Carey will supervise the meeting. The railroad have granted a rate of one and one-half fare for the round trip. The National Association of Colored Graduate Nurses will meet August 21-24 in Chicago, the sessions to be held in the Y. M. C. A. building, 3763 South Wabash avenue. The twenty-second biennial session of the Supreme Lodge, Knights of Pythia, North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia, will convene in New York August 20 opening with the meeting of the Pythian Temple Commission. On the 21st, the Supreme Lodge will meet in the Rush Memorial A. M. E. Zion Church, West 13th street. On the same day, the Supreme Court, Order of Calamite, will begin its session at the Mother A. M. E. Zion Church, West 15th street. The Dramatic Order, Knights of Omar, will hold its sessions at the New Abyssinian Baptist Church, West 13th street. The twelfth annual encampment of the uniform Rank, Knights of Pythia, will be at Camp Joseph L. Jones, North Beach, Long Island, N. Y. The grand Lodge of the Independent, Benevolent, Protective Order of Elks of the World, J. Flinky Wilson of Washington, grand emulated ruler, will meet in Chicago, Ill., August 26 to 30. The annual meeting of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People will be held at Kansas City, Kansas, August 29 to September 5. Officials of the institution declare that this condition has been brought about largely through the aid of THE New York Act, which has consistently endeavored to present the true facts concerning Harlem Hospital without bias for or against. As a result of the fair and unprejudiced articles published in The Art. said one of the officials, much of the understanding created by uninformed and prejudiced criticism has been dispelled. As a result, it has been possible to secure a full working staff, and the number of applications received in excess of the number of positions available has made it possible for the first time to create a waiting list. Naturally, said the Acz informant, there are some of the nurses at present on date who will probably fall short of the required standard, and their places will be filled from time to time in the hope of finally securing nurses of the highest possible efficiency and qualification. Many Applications Received The present class of probationers is probably the smallest the Training School for Nurses at Harlem Hospital will have for some time, as the campaign of education, in which The Ace played so conspicuous and important a part, has brought to the superintendent of training schools at Bellevue many applications from desirable applicants to the nursing profession. It is probable that the next class, forming September I, will number from thirty to forty, the maximum number permitted in a single class. Many applications have come from desirable prospective students living in other sections of the country. At present, there is a temporary shortage of post graduate nurse students, and this increases the duties of the graduate nurses now on the staff. But this condition will be remedied as the probationers finish their four months' trial period and are advanced to junior nurses. In fact, according to an expression made by one of the officials connected with the school, it is within the limits of possibility that, it will be necessary to eventually close the door to postgraduate case students because the available position will be filled by pupils of the school's own training. This will not be done, however, unless and until it becomes a matter of imperative necessity. Negro Interna Needed The admission of young Negro physicians in Harlem Hospital as interns is of interest now to those who are proceeded in his policy of this city institution. It is pointed out that most of the applications made by medical graduates in the past have been for admission to Bellevue, and that, a number of colored men and women who were successful in passing with sufficiently high ratings were appointed and served successfully in the parent city institution. Applicants for admission to Harlem Hospital have not been successful in making the grade, and this has aroused some comment. Just why those who apply for Bellevue should succeed while those who want to enter Harlem fail, makes a cause for curious wonder. It is hinted that there have been other reasons than actual inability to pass he required tests. It has been suggested that a reason might be found in the attitude of the medical board in control of the matter, and that until the consciences of these men were aroused to a sense of justice and fair play the admission of colored interns to Harlems Hospital would continue unconsummated. It is intimated that restricted living quarters at the Harlem institution may be playing its part in the problem. In other words, that there is a greater flexibility possible: at Believe then at the smaller place, that therefore it is easier to arrange satisfactorily for the living accommodation of sum of different races at-Believe then at Harlems. However that may be, a representative of The Ace was assured some months ago by the general medical superintendent of Bellevue and Allied Hospital, D. George O'Hanlon, that in the event a colored graduate achieved the necessary grade for appointment to an internship at Harlem, the question of living quarters would not be permitted to interfere in the alightest degree with his being given full recognition and reward. Exposition Exhibitors Give Dinner to Roose The exhibitors making displays at the repeat Commercial and Business Expositions held at Brennance Carlo, July 11, 1914, at the Roosevelt Hotel, Mr. and Mrs. Willis Benton at the Cuyahoga Exhibition, L18th street, on Tuesday night, July 31. Jl. Gertrude B. Needles, the furrier, was in charge of the dinner arrangements. A. I. Hart of the Hart 5 and 10 Cent Store was toastmaster, and various exhibitors told of the benefits gained and lessons learned from the first business exposition, which was conceived and promoted by Mr. Roach, who is president of the Sarco Realty Co., and proprietor of the Renaissance casino. Many of them have already contracted for booths for the next year's exposition. The dimmer evolved into an experience meeting, with cooperation and getting together as the keynote participated in by all present. The special guests of honor were Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, editor of the Crisis Magazine, and Fred R. Moore, editor of The New York Age. A special menu was served by the caterer, and the dinner was a great success. Negro Business League At Hot Springs, Ark. The twenty-fourth annual session of the National Negro Business League meets at Hot Springs, Ark., August 15-17. All persons attending to be present are asked to notify John L. Webb, 5111% Malvern avenue, Hot Springs National Park, Ark., who is in charge of local arrangements. Those in the vicinity of New York who intend attending can secure information concerning rates, etc., by writing Fred R. Moore, The New York Age, 230 West 135th street, New York City. Railroads have granted a one and one-half fare for the round trip. ```markdown ``` President Warren Gamaliel Harding, who, with Mrs. Harding, had just returned from a visit to Alaska and British Columbia, was stricken, when he reached San Francisco, with what the physicians diagnosed as ptomaine poison, from eating salmon supposed to have been tainted with copper which impregnates the Alaskan waters. The illness assumed serious proportions when broncho-pneumonia developed on the third day. He was attended by his personal physician, Dr. C. E. Sawyer, who has been in constant attendance since leaving Washington; Dr. Ray Lyman Wilbur, president of Leland Stanford Jr. Hospital, a noted stomach specialist; Dr. Hubert Work, Secretary of Interior in the President's Cabinet; Dr. C. C. Cooper and Dr. J. T. Boone. These doctors succeeded in arresting the progress of the pneumonia development, and on Wednesday morning issued a bulletin to the effect that the crisis had passed and that President Harding is on the road to recovery. Norman & Jones Win Place In Tennis Finals for Park Titles Under U. S. T. Assn. Pair Wins Doubles in Queens Borough, Not Losing a Set—Good Showing in Singles, Jones Going to Semi-Finals and Norman Proving to be Runner-Up The United States Lown Tennis Association is conducting a series of tournaments of the various cities throughout the country, in which the champions of each city will meet in St. Louis to decide the National Park Championship, in both the men's singles and men's doubles. Kissena Park Flushing, helts its elimination contest last week with the only two colored entrants, Gerald F. Norman and Eugene K. Jones, making a good showing. Jones reached the semi-finals in the men's singles but was defeated by F. McLaughlin, a former captain of the Colgate College tennis team. Norman reached the finals, but was also defeated by McLaughlin in the match for the championship. fared better, as they went through the finals without losing a set. They won the finals with a score of 6-1, 6-1, 6-4. Elimination contests were also held in Wayanda Park, another section of Queens. McLaughlin, the Kissena Park singles champion, easily disposed of the winner of the singles of the Wayando Park section, while Jones and Norman defeated A. Platz and G. Simhott, the doubles champions of Wayando Park, in straight sets of 6-2, 7-5, 6-2. Queens Borough will have the novelty of being represented in the Borough championship games by a white player in themen's singles, and two veteran colored players in the doubles. The winners of the borough championship will represent the city in St. Louis in Italian Injured by Car Driven by Negro, Crowd Makes Attempt to Lynch (Special to The New York Age) Paterson, N. J.—Charles Mann of this city narrowly escaped being lynched in Haskell. N. J. on Monday night, July 30, when his auto struck Sam Steffaozo, 58, who was riding a bicycle. Steffano was thrown into a gutter, with fractured skull and other injuries. Mann, after striking the man, immediately stopped his car and came back to render what assistance he could to the stricken man. In the meantime, several hundred Italians, Steffano's compatriots, gathered around and they closed in on the colored man, who protested and pleaded, to no avail. Two ropes were procured, and amid cries of "Lynch him! lynch him!" the Italians were crowding around Mann, who had been forced away from his auto. Fortunately, Chief of Police Post came on the scene, and, with his revolver drawn, he made to Mann and succeeded in backing into the home of Dr. William Meyer. The angry Italians surrounded the house, demanding that the colored man be turned over to them, but they finally were disbursed. Chief Post secured an auto and took Mann to Passaic County Jail, holding him on charge of atrocious assault and battery. Steffano, was taken to St. Joseph's Hospital. Art Exhibit at Library. The work of several students who have had very little instruction will be shown on the main floor of the library from August 1 to 15. Specifically individual exhibits of distinguished artists will be also. Their names will be announced in the papers and in the lobby of the library.

Elimination contests were also held in Wayanda Park, another section of Queens. McLoughlin, the Kissona Park singles champion, easily disposed of the winner of the singles of the Wayando Park section, while Jones and Norman defeated A. Platz and G. Simott, the doubles champions of Wayando Park, in straight sets of 6-2, 7-5, 6-2. Queens Borough will have the novelty of being represented in the Borough championship games by a white player in themen's singles, and two veteran colored players in the doubles. The winners of the borough championship will represent the city in St. Louis in August. South Carolina Offers Free Farms to Whites (Special To The New York Age) Columbia, S. C. The first positive action looking to the replacing of Negroes with whites in South Carolina has been taken by Greenwood county, which since November, 1922, has lost between 2,000 and 3,000 Negroes by migration. Settlers who have money enough to finance themselves will be given land free, according to a plan agreed upon by the members of the chamber of commerce. This offer is for "restricted immigration," however, as only settlers from other sections who are literate and who have attained money to make homes for themselves will be given land. Kenneth Baker, Marvin S. Chipley and Ira B. Taylor, all large land owners, are among those who have had they will give land to settlers of the type mentioned. Since the Negroes have been leaving in such numbers plans for inducing white settlers to come in and take their places have been discussed, and a "land settlement commission" now is working on the plans, but this action of Greenwood land, owners is the only definition taken to bring whites to South Carolina. APPEAL FOR FUNDS! Mrs. Alexander Lovings is appealing for funds to defray expense of defending her husband, Alexander Lovings, formerly headwinner at Hotel Kardam, Eastern, Pa., who is in jeopardy on charge of murder, first degree, although he acted entirely in self-defense. The Age celebrates her appeal and will provide and acknowledge any contributions in to an appeal her. REGISTRATION DAYS October 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13.

Republican Candidates for Board of Aldermen and State Assembly, Respectively Counsellor Aiken A. Pope and Francis X. Kernan have been selected, by the Republican County Committee as official Republican candidates for nomination as Alderman and State Assemblyman, respectively, from the 19th A. D. to be voted for at the September primaries. These recommendations were made at a meeting held at the Central Republican Club on Wednesday evening; July 25. The selections were endorsed by Messra. Kurtz, Holtzclaw, Michigan Brown, Jack' Givens and Collector Charles W. Anderson, D. B. Costume, 19th A. D. leader, made a strong appeal for concerted action in behalf of the nominees, and urged that the district captains apply themselves energetically to the task of rolling up a strong majority for the Republican candidates. He emphasized the importance of making a good showing at the September primaries. Counsellor Pope, 34 years and unmarried, is a native of Anguita, Ga., a graduate of Lincoln and Yale Universities and of Harvard Law School. He has law offices at 366 Broadway. Mr. Keenan, 36 years, also single, born in New York City, is in the insurance business with the firm of O'Brien & O'Brien, 342 Madison avenue. He was educated at the Cathedral School and Manhattan College. BURGLARY IN N. C. MILLS 3 MIDDLEMES WHO FIT DESCRIPTION Three Harkenite, Charles Laasiter, nineteen, Edward Cormminger, nineteen, and Jasper Norwood, twenty-eight, all of 2254 Seventh avenue, were arrested and are being held as fugitives from justice by local authorities. It is claimed that they are wanted in connection with a burglary of a store in Wake, N. C. They answer the description sent out by the police of that city and are being held without bail. Harlem Doctors Being Trained to Administer Insulin for Diabetes Medical practitioners in New York are being given every opportunity to study the administration of the newly discovered diabetic remedy, Insulin. Doctors from the Rockefeller Institute and staff members of the Presbyterian Hospital are concentrating their efforts in this instruction given to their fellow physicians. Drs. E, P. Roberts and P. F. Anderson are among the Harlem physicians who have taken advantage of the opportunity, and they have completed the course of instruction. Other physicians will doubtless also avail themselves of the instruction. Insulin was brought by Dr. Banting, collaborating with Prof. McLeod, at the University of Toronto, about three years ago, and it has revolutionised the treatment of diabetes, which had always been considered as incurable. Because the discovery has added years to the lives of diabetic sufferers, and thus saved millions of dollars to the insurance companies, they have issued paid-up life insurance policies on the life of Dr Banting to the value of $1,000,000. John D. Rockefeller, jr., realizing the need of intelligent instruction of doctors in the use of Insulin, gave $150,000 for the use of various hospitals in this connection. The Presbyterian Hospital has established a course of lectures, clinics and laboratory technique, manned by the most efficient experts and diagnosticians, charging a nominal fee for the course. Hampton Summer School Students Give Physical and Music Demonstrations (Special Correspondent) Hampton, Va.—An interesting physical training demonstration was given in the Hampton gymnastism. The program included exhibitions with Indian clubs and dumb bells, playground games, technical studies and rhythmic expression, and folk dances, the latter being arranged by Mrs. Dora Cole Norman of New York. An Apparent Monopoly In Hands of a Favored Group Loul'z, Hyman, "Chief," Goldgraben and "Al & Sam" seem to Be Only Successful Operators, Others Venturing Into the Bootlegging Field Not Lasting Long. EACH OF THESE IS CONDUCTING SEVERAL DRINK PLACES: SOME HAVING AS MANY AS FOUR OR FIVE OR VARIOUS DIEGUISSES Monopolistic Bootleggers Have Comm. Meeting Place in Deloitteessen near 185th St. and Lenox Ave., Where "Craps" at $1,000 a Throw is Their Recreation Selling "hootch" in Harlem must be exceedingly profitable, judging from the fact that new places are constantly being opened up by the men who are in control of places already operating. It seems, however, to be something of a close corporation, as only the places conducted by Louie, Hymie, "Chief," Goldgraben and Al and Sam seem to prosper. The only outsider who had the tenacity to make a bid for a share of the "hootch" business, opening a place on Lenox avenue, between 132nd and 133rd streets, next door to one of Louie's delicatessen, was given short shrift, even though he employed a colored man of extensive acquaintance and wide experience as a bootleger. Harlem Sick People Are Flecking to All Sorts of Quacksters According to a statement made to This Age by a well informed observer, a large percentage of the sick and alder This place was made the object of the most zealous oversight by revenue agent, both state and federal, and it was raided several times in rapid succession, although the same time the place immediately adjacent, in the next door premises, was wide open and doing a land business, selling booth openly to the thirsty. The new man is now out of business and a big padlock is on the door. An Apparent Monopoly. But just a block or so below, between 13th and 13th streets, a new place is being opened by "Al and Sam," similar to all appearance, to the place already in operation on Lenox between 13th and 13th street, under the sign "Sam and Al." But what's the odds to a bondage girl? The matter of a slight difference in title count. In fact, the pliancy grant prefers a half-down diagnosis to a single one—it is easier to escape identification. Then, at the corner of 13th street and Seventh avenue, a few days ago one's hirsute adornment was quickly removed from the loom by artists of the minor and shaven side, a few days from the loom by artists of the minor and shaven side, a few days from the loom by artists of the minor and shaven side, which will take the hair off the inside of one's statency. In fact, if apparent activities are indicative of the future, the crewwhile tomoral emporium will soon take on the appearance of an old fashioned boone parlor. Then if rumor is believed, there is a distinguished effort being made to cater to the more "refined" trade by an ice cream and soda water establishment conducted on the west side of Seventh avenue in the same neighborhood, which is alleged to supply to "safe" customers a superior grade of beverage at a reasonable price. Of course, it doesn't matter that old soaks who have sampled the goods declare that it is the same old Lenox avenue "bootch" put up in a slightly aristocratic package. The Chief Operators The rithere is Comie's Inn, formerly the Shaffrae Inn; which, so report goes, has been granted a temporary license to operate in the Lafayette Theatre building basement, and which has taken over the Odessa millinery shop to pro- Edgar J. Ross, F. was appointed on July 25 as supervisor of public markets, in charge of the Fifth Avenue Market, Manhattan, 133rd to 136th streets, and the Lemon Avenge Market, 139th to 140th streets. His appointment is under the Civil Service Commission and is the first one to be given a colored man since the establishment of civil service control of the appointment of market supervisors. Formerly these positions were exempt and were filled largely through the political influence controlled by applicants, and under this arrangement several colored men held jobs, but the new order supervised all former appointments, the places being filled from the eligible list submitted as a result of civil service tests recently held. 1095 applicants took the examination, but only 322 succeeded in attaining a passing rating, and Mr. Ross was the only colored man, on the list. He was No. 55. The position pays a salary of $2,167 per annum. Mr. Ross is on the Fleet Naval Reserve (inactive duty), after sixteen years serving in the U. S. Navy, attaining the highest rank possible for a colored seaman, that of cabi steward. He went on reserve August 7, 1922, on retainer pay. He subsequently was appointed to a position in the General Post Office, 33rd street and 8th avenue, resigning after ten months to accept the present market supervisorship. He is married and has a daughter 7 years old. Mississippi Meb Burns Negro at Stake in Swamp Ymco City, Min.-A mob of several hundred whites captured White Mifield, a Negro in a swamp near here at 10 o'clock Sunday morning, July 24, an operation of being conducted with an assault made with an arm on a white woman twenty miles past堡 of host. Mifield delivered the impersonation, but he was taken from a prison by the mob, tied to a stile and brought to death. American Fugue sold to have been kept in prison to be murdered by the crowd. According to a statement made to The Aye by a well informed observer, a large percentage of the sick and ill people in Harlem are going to "fight bankers," "Indian doctors," herb and drug specialists, layers-on of hands, diagners of uric acid removers, main oil and other nostrums, for treatment. It is alleged also that druggists of foreign extraction are presenting, for patients, in violation of the law, and to the disadvantage of the regular practicing medical doctor. The Age informant declares that he saw one of these "quick" doctors training a patient for eye trouble and directing a return for further treatment the next day. This is a manner to public health and should be stopped. wide space for an orate Seventh avenue entrance to the elaborate (4) cabinet palace in the underground space. It is alleged that the few thousands of dollars required to make this change are not of much consequence in the manner, the new operator, for the alleged connection with one of the less orane delicacies "mooch" exists is said to furnish him with vast part of the "aimer" of war. Judging from the large display on Louise's room, the hardware being controlled by a new man, Louis H. Henkel, Al and Sam, Genneth, and the "Chief" must parade, seem to enjoy a monopoly. Of course, this does not take account of the bootlegger, drug stores, candy stores, hardware stores, and other places camouflaging under legitimate frontages, nor of the regular cafes, a considerable number of which continue to do business. An interesting tale is told of the recreations enjoyed by some of these monopolistic bootleggers. It is alleged that most of them congregate in their "hours of case" at a delicatessen near the 135th street subway station, where in a convenient backroom they relax and enjoy themselves, but hardly means of a demeured alcohol mixture served over the various counter. It is alleged, also, that these men find considerable pleasure in manipulating the little ivory cubes which have long been referred to as particularly the colored brother's game. When other things pall, some one of the group will produce a pair of dice and "shooting for a thousand bucks" is said to be a common place occurrence. Entered Husbands Home During His Absence, Is Charge Against Mrs. Allen Mrs. Pouli LaVen Allen of 208 West 131st street, Manhattan, was arranged in the 12th District Magistrate's Court on Monday, July 30, on a charge of disorderly conduct preferred by her husband, the Rev. George W. Allen of 291 West 131st street, from whom she is appeared. She was held in $300 bail for appearance on August 1. Booth were furnished. The charge recites that while Mr. Allen was at Saratoga Springs on a visit, Mrs. Allen in some way gained entrance to his house, and took up her quarters there. It is alleged that she went in on Thursday of the week preceding Mr. Allen's return, which was on Wednesday of last week. When he found Mrs. Allen making herself at home in his rooms, Mr. Allen ordered her to leave. She not only refused, according to his story, but proceeded to create considerable disorder and damage. She is charged with having used the heel of her shoe in breaking window panes, and with smashing a lamp shade, a chair, and a window flower box. In addition to this physical damage, the lady was also alleged to have indulged in profanity of a buried hue, and to have characterised tenants occupying quarters in Mr. Allen's house in vulgar terms that implied they were undesirable as neighbors. The Alams have been separated for some time, following an attempt on part of Mrs. Alam to have her husband adjudged as of unbound mind. She did succeed in having him put under observation but he was released after a few days' detention. The separating proceedings are pending in court. M. P. Sandsen DL M. P. Sammard of 209 Cifteen place, Brockley, is given all of his life. He has been condemned to bed for a considerable period, but is able to good health of his friends who call to me him. My Sammard is about 30 years old and has long been prominent in Bristol high school and political life and is a part of the best known men in Bristol High Park. Dr. James Henderson of Lovedale Institute, South Africa, Made Extensive Tour of Observation, Visiting Institutions in Various Parts of Land. After spending seven weeks in the made by Negroes in Gloucester County, United States studying at close range the educational, economic, social and industrial development of the American Dr. James Henderson, principal of the Lovedale Institution, South Africa, has returned home with some high-afforable impressions. For thirty years Dr. Henderson has engaged in missionary education. His school is the largest in South Africa conducted in the interest of the native youth. The absorbing passion of the American Negro for progress, his intense loyalty to his country and the American flag, the facility with which he speaks the English language, his thirst for education and his strong religious tendencies, were among the commendable characteristics to come within the range of Dr. Henderson's observations. Tuskegee and Hampton Institutes come up to Dr. Henderson's expectations. Some phases of their work even extends his expations. He thinks it would be unbound for these two great schools to merely turn out common workers from their respective industrial departments, for 'he care and thoroughness of the "training" students to go out into the world and serve as "masters" of the trade and not more. The two things to puzzle him most while in America were: first, the inclination of white America to accord better treatment to the foreigners than to the Negro, although the former comes to shores as a ruk purify for selfish and maniacous purposes, and has the kind of appreciation shown by Negroes for their landers. While on his extended tour of observation Dr. Handerson visited, among other places, Tusahaye, Hampton, also Atlanta, Savannah, Gulfport, Misc., Calibourn, Ala., Gloucester County, Va., King's Mountain, N. C., Richmond, Petersburg, Washington, New York and Boston. His library enabled him to get first hand information of Negro life in both urban and rural communities. He was first impressed with the great desire of Negroes to own their own homes. Wherever he found land owners he noted progress—good houses, well furnished homes and decent, self-respecting home life. Negroes own property aim to send their children to schools and collage, it having been no uncommon experience for the South African educator to hear of three or more children in a family having graduated from different institutions of learning. In the opinion of Dr. Henderson, the system of tenancy without lease effects both white and colored, people and is a most airless barrier. The relative progress made in a community as distinguished between owner and tenant was most noticeable in Callous, Ala. Dr. Henderson was struck with the progress 200 PREACHERS MEET AT BETTIS ACADEMY IN ANNUAL INSTITUTE (By WM. ANTHONY AERY) Trenton, S. C.—The fifth annual preachers' institute, recently held for four days at Bettis Academy, Alfred W. Nicholson, president, brought together an average daily attendance of nearly two hundred rural preachers, seventy-five colored teachers, and many friends of rural teachers' and preachers. About one hundred sixty preachers lived on the Bettis Academy grounds and were cared for by friends living in the community. Dr. James Hardy Dillard of Charlottesville, Va., president of the James and Slater boards, rector of William and Mary College, and member of the General Education Board, first carried into action, during the summer of 1919, at Bottis Academic, a plan for reaching and helping rural colored preachers who are unquestionably the most powerful leaders among their people. These leaders, have been and still are handicapped in their spiritual work on account of the general lack of training. Dr. Dillard's plan, summer after summer, has been to bring to the colored preachers of western South Carolina white and some colored teachers who could understand the everyday problems of the rural preachers and who would teach the truth of Christian thought and work in simple speech and with the love of God and men in their hearts. The recent institute was the best of the series. The preachers attended promptly and regularly and asked worth while questions. They expressed frankly their ideas of what could be done to improve interracial co-operation and good feeling between white and black people. They derailed more clearly what they could do, by working together, to help bring in the Kingdom of God. The regular courses included "The Background of Christian Preaching," J. E. Gregg, "The Minister's Correspondence," B. C. Caldwell; Sunday School," T. B. Lanham; "The Price of Health," W. A. Aery; "The Church and the Neighborhood," ackson Davis; "Church Business and Records," W. T. B. Williams; and "How to Read the Bible," J. H. Dillard. The preachers began the day's work with a six o'clock prayer-meeting. Devotional exercises with brief talks by visitors were held each morning at 11:15 o'clock. Each evening at 8:15 o'clock there were special lectures on subjects of interest and value to preachers and teachers. Dr. Dillard, in opening the institute, said: "We all need to make constant effort to improve ourselves. We can all give some help to other people. All of us must bear our proper burdens. We need to improve ourselves in body. We need to make our bodies stronger, stronger, stronger. We must improve our home performances as well as our minds. We must strengthen ourselves in fellowship for our fellowmen." Joliette Davis paid: "The teachers and educators are making rural life throughly the South more attractive and more developing the neighborhood." made by Negroes in Gloucester County, Va., where all but the best farmers own their land, have good homes and are improving the soil. The highest displayed by the Negro farmer about agriculture, his extraordinary reputation to learn new methods from Federal and State farm demonstrators, were entirely apparent to the visitor. Tuskegee and Hampton Institutes came up to Dr. Henderson's expectations. Some phases of their work even exceed his expectations. He thinks it would be unbound for these two great schools to merely turn out common workers from their respective industrial departments, for 'he care and thoroughness of the training his students to go into the world and serve as "masters" of the trade and not merely ordinary workers. The notewable building up of character, the fine physical appearance of students and the practical usefulness of movable schools were some of the indelible impressions he carried from Hampton and Tuskegee. The State Normal College at Petersburg, Va. is a notable example of what can be accomplished by the cooperation of the State and these directly concerned in education, says Dr. Henderson. He was also greatly impressed with the domestic science equipment of Spelman Seminary, Athens, and the equipment of Dundar High School, Washington, Dr. C. The apothecary of Negroes was a pioneer in the development and enjoying all the modern conveniences was quite an eye opener during the visitor's tour of inspection in New York, Boston, and Washington. The effective constructive work being done in the South under the direction of the Commission on Inter-Racial Cooperation has no favorability improved Dr. Hendersonen he is planning to organize a similar Commission whose personnel shall consist of natives and white people interested in South African problems. Dr. Henderson is a Scotchman of strong religious convictions. He believes that in God's providence Negro slaves were brought to America hundreds of years ago for a great purpose, and that the American Negro is destined to fill the pages of American history with glorious service to themselves and to the Nation. How. James Sheppard, member of the South Carolina Legislature from Edgfield County, expressed his assessment at the progress which colored people have made along all lines since their emancipation. "I find," he said, "that Negro children are anxious to get an education. I find that Negroes are furnishing much money for their own schools. I have been deeply impressed with the splendid work of Dr. Wilkinson at the State A. and M. College. I can see a great future for this school as Oracembrera." The Rev. Dr. Albert D. Betts of Bearfort, S. C., speak on "Preaching a Balanced Gospel." He made "plea for thorough, hard work on the part of the proachera." "Speak the truth always," he said, "but speak it in We meet men and live in lives a way that not found outside of the Corinthian Life." J. H. Hope of Columbia, S. C., state superintendent of public instruction, said "Nowhere is there a body of men who are trying harder than the Negro ministers, to educate boys and girls. These Negro ministers are tireless workers for education. These men have not been appreciated as they should be. None of us, however, must grow tired of the task of teaching right morals to people both young and old. We must equip people for life in the schools. I am glad that you accepted the challenge of erecting each week one new school for colored children. I want all the children educated regardless of race. We might as well try to raise ourselves by our bootstraps, if we do not educate colored children as well as white children." W. W. Fuller, superintendent of schools for Edgardville, County, said "We may raise quantities of cotton and corn, but if we do not know how to use the money which we receive from our cotton and corn, what does it profit? We are living to give you additional we shall be able to give you additional advantages. We have been greatly handicapped because of the unprepared teachers. I want to urge teachers to prepare themselves to do better work." James L. Quinby of Graniteville, S. C. who for many years has been a trustee of Bettie cadency, said: "Bettie Academy has exerted a wonderful influence. This is shown by the lives and characters of those who have been trained here. The teachers and pre-there are here to learn what they can do to prepare the riling generation to be better men and women." The institute program included the following addresses: "Campaign against Illiteracy," F. O. Black, superintendent of schools for Saluda County and Mary R. Hite of Rockillah, S. C.; "Christian Living," B. F. Crouch of Saluda County; "Serving and Lifting People" and Work of the Country Minister," Rev. G. Lake Imps, dean of Phila Hall Bible Training, School at Tuskegee Institute; "Rural Slavery," Dr. Charles H. Fermin, imbal officer of Alton County; "Building a Christian World," Dr. W. W. Almonder of Atlanta, Co., director of Commission on Inter-racial Co-operation; and "Training Home-makers" Rebecca K. Dovis, Jackson, Tennessee. Downington Industrial School in Danger of Losing Appropriation LIBRARY RESERVES HELP OF AMERICANS Hampshire, Va. If the Church in Christian America will stand by the missionaries, Librarians will be Christianized and civilized. Today there 400,000 children in Librarians who are without any opportunity. If we help Librarians as we should, then we may justly criticize, when her progress seems inadequate." The Venerable James S. Russell of Lawrenceville, Va., founder and principal of St. Paul School, who is archdemon for colored work of the Episcopal Church in the diocese of Southern Virginia, made this statement recently at Hampton Institute in his address to the summer school students. Dr. Russell, who visited Liberia for one year ago, was made, for his service to education, "Knight Commander of the Liberian Humane Order of African Redemption." "One of the first missionaries to Africa," said Dr. Russell, "was Lott Carey of Richmond. In 1822 he felt that he had a call to preach the unaspentable riches of God to the people in Africa. Much progress has been made since the days of Lott Carey. Many people have said that Liberia has not made any progress. Several of the greatest statesmen of Africa, however, have been brought 'from the bush' and trained by missionaries. There is a wonderful opportunity for service in Liberia, which is ripe for the harvest, but for which the workers are few. Liberia is a great missionary opportunity for America. "Liberia needs American service, counsel and money. The people of Liberia have made wonderful strides in spite of their handicaps. Liberia is the garden spot of Africa and is rich beyond comprehension. Liberia, which is the size of Ohio, cost about $100. It was secured in barter—hats, shoes, clothes, skillets, etc. Liberia, of course, needs money. She needs money very badly for her schools. Some 65,000 civilized and semi-civilized people have been brought from heathenism through the missionaries. There are today in Liberia 35 native Episcopal ministers, three-fourths of whom were brought from heathenism. This is generally true of other denominations. Heathenism in Liberia is passing away and Christianity is expanding." "Best Teacher Gets Most Willing Work from Pupil" Declares Dr. J. H. Dillard Hampton, Va.—"The best teacher to my mind, is the one who gets the most of willing work out of the pupils," declared Dr. James Hardy Dillard, president of the Jeanes and Slater Boards, in a recent address to the Hampton Institute summer-school students. Ha added: "If I see the teacher doing all the talking—it may be wonderfully interesting—I do not think that is as good a teacher as the one in whose room I find the pupils doing more of the talking, find them busy doing something themselves, and not merely listening. I know the teacher has to teach, but let us not forget the fact that the thing that counts most is the work that the boy or girl does." "I have a suspicion that has been growing on me for some time. It has been growing on me from examinations and other things. It is this; somehow teachers are not quite as strict as they used to be in seeing that pupils what they have gone over; they are promoted to higher grade or school, you would like to suggest to you that you take into consideration at least that thought and see whether you yourself are a party to the mistake of advancing pupils when they do not know what they have gone over. It is a mistake, if it is done. It leads to inaccuracy and shallowness and dishonesty all through the pupil's life." Washington Scholarship Of $2,500 is 4th Given By Alumni Association (Special MEMBER) Hampton, Va.—William M. Reid of Portsmouth, presi nt of the Hampton Institute Alumni Association, presented to Principal J. E. Gregg, at the sixteenth triennial remi son, $2,500 on behalf of the Association for the creation of a fourth permanent scholarship, which will be known as the Booker T. Washington Scholarship.

Colored Boys and Girls Learn to Play in Maryland Hampden, Va.—That Maryland is developing a useful plan of recreation for school boys and girls, both white and colored, was the result exceeded by W. P. Pitman of Baltimore, Md., state thunder of the Playground Athletic League, who again recently in Ogden Mall Hall the institute, before the summer-school students.

Nat'l Urban League Board Adopts Memorial To Late Dr. W. H. Brooks, a Founder On Tuesday, July 24, a quarterly meeting of the executive board of the National Urban League was held in the Russell Sage Foundation Building, New York City, at which time the financial report of the League's work for the first half year indicated that the national organization had expended $25,210.91 in furthering its work. The executive secretary, Eugene Kinckle Jones, reported the formation of the St. Paul Urban League which beginning November first will be supported by the Community Chest of that city. A. L. Foster, former boys' work secretary of the Y. M. C. A. in Columbus, Ohio has been appointed executive secretary of the Canton, Ohio, Urban League of Camelot Allen, principal of the public schools of Lehigh N. J., and a school examiner, has been appointed executive secretary of the Boston Urban League. The Urban League plans to hold its annual conference in Kansas City, Mo. October 16 to 19. Director of Research and Investigations, Charles S. Johnson, made a report of the findings in the surveys made in Hartford, Baltimore, Flushing, L. I. and Milwaukee. The League decided to award four fellowships of approximately $600 each for the next school year at the New York School of Social Work and the Carnegie Institute of Technology. A resolution was passed on the recent death of Dr. William H. Brooks, who was one of the founders of each of the three organizations which ended to form the National Urban League. The resolution reads as follows: Dr. William Hi Brooks was one of the founders of the National Urban League, just as he had been one of each of the three organizations which subsequently were merged to form the National Urban League. His wise counsel and sympathetic understanding were important factors in moulding the policy of the League and in developing a nifer and more efficient spirit of cooperation between the races. "In his death, the League and the cause it espouses have lost a tue and staunch friend. His spirit and the good effects of the work he did will never die, however, and it is therefore with great appreciation of his work that we record in our minutes our deep sense of gratitude at having had the good fortune to be associated with such a soul."

Los Angeles Miss Bowles took occasion to score severely the proposed "Mammy" statue to be erected in Washington as an "insult both to the 'mammy' and to the Negro race," which would be repudiated by no one more quickly than by the old mammies.

Thursday, Aug. 9, 1923 FROM SUNRISE TILL SUNSET Speaker MR. MARIE K. HARRIS Public Approval PORO COLLEGE Stands Squarely Before the Public on Its Merits as an Organization of Service The public, by its ever-increasing patronage places the stamp of approval on PORO COLLEGE. NEW SALING PUBLIC SCHOOL BOARD HOLDS FIRE SUMMER SCHOOL By V. P. THOMAS New Orleans, La.-What is claimed to be one of the most successful summer normal schools ever conducted in New Orleans came to a close Friday after six weeks work, in which there was an enrollment of more than four hundred. The normal was held under the auspices of the New Orleans Public School Board with a faculty selected by the board. Some of the most highly recommended teachers on the subject, usually studied in normal schools are said to have had classes for instruction and all the classes made gratifying progress in the work taken up during the sessions. Prof. Johnson, supervisor of colored schools at Fort Smith, Ark., was in charge of the class in physiology, and Prof. Whiting of, Tuskegee was in charge of the work in educational tests and measurements. Other teachers equally well known for their proficiency were in charge of other classes of the normal, and all working together in harmonious cooperation made the work of the normal fine. Teachers who attended feel benefited, and instructors who helped them are gratified over results: Assistant Superintendent Amos C. Harris, superintendent of the colored schools, gave much attention to the work of the normal and is said to be pleased with its success. The session was conducted in Thorny Lafon Public School buildings. Thomas Browns Celebrate Their Golden Wedding New Orleans, La.-Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Brown, old and esteemed couple, married fifty years ago in the parish of St. John the Baptist, where they were in business for many years and still have their home, celebrated their golden wedding anniversary on July 15, surrounded by forty-three great grandchildren, two grand children and a daughter, the widow of the late president of the Unity Industrial Life and Sick Benefit Company of Louisiana, Dr. Paul H. V. Dejez, she being now teasurer of that big concern. Mr. Brown was not in god health at the time of the celebration, but the rejoicings and felicitations of the family were nonetheless happy that the Great Dispenser of life had spared him to be with them and Mrs. Mrs. Brown fifty years after the couple had taken the vows and obligations of matrimony. They renewed the vows taken fifty years ago and had the renewal blessed and consecrated by the parish priest of St. John. It was a fine celebration and a touching reunion of a big family of prominent people of our race because the principals in the auspicious affair set an example of matrimonial life that shows what the sacred bonds of marriage lived up to by the loyalty and devotion of the united lovers, one unto the other, leads to, for those who give themselves to each other for better or for worse in receiving this holy sacrament. Fifty years of wedded life is an allotment of three score years and ten to man is an inspiring thought to children who have the living evidence of the harmony and unison that ruled in the conduct of the pair toward each other in that time and will no doubt make a dep impression upon them and may cause them to emulate the beautiful example. The friends of the Brown family hope for Mr. Brown that he may recover from his present indisposition and five years yet to witness the progress of the several generations of his children. New Orleans, "a.—Samuel Shinkle Taylor, principal of the Willow street public school, has been named supervisor of the New Orleans colored public schools. The appointment; given Professor Taylor the distinction of being the first colored supervisor of public schools the city ever had. Prof. Taylor won this elevation and honor by the merits the school board found in his work, and the best of it all is that he received a distinction that no one here expected for the race, or is known to have been asking for. There had been so much uncertainty abroad as to the attitude of the school board toward our people and so little that was clear as to the program the board had mapped out for the colored schools of the city, that the announcement of the appointment of Prof. Taylor to be supervisor was much of a glad surprise. It has been known that Prof. Taylor was one of several colored teachers in in the system who have been engaged in preparing a course of studies for the colored schools under the leadership of Prof. Amos C. Harris, the white assistant superintendent in charge of Negro schools, but that was about as much as was known of the program of the board. Prof. Taylor was working on the history part of the studies in course of preparation. Prof. Taylor served in the World War and came back when the war was over to the work which he loved and had planned to follow. He has not been afraid to work hard. He has seemed ambitious to accomplish something and it is believed that he has made some progress in preparing the history course to which he set himself in the proposed course of studies for the New Orleans colored public schools. He has been diligent and tireless in his effort to get together suitable historical facts for this work and his invited the kindly cooperation of anyone who may have facts of history bearing upon the part the black man had in its making from the landing of Negroes in Janestown jn 1619 to the present time.

When so staunch a defender of the bishopric as the "Star of Zion," the official organ of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, starts to "smoke out the mooters," as a recent editorial was entitled, there must be something wrong with the candidates proposed for that exalted position. The Age has insisted in season and out upon the necessity of advancing to the episcopal office only candidates of proved fitness, ability, and character. So insistent has it been upon this last qualification and the need of keeping the high office free from suspicion, that it has incurred a rebuke from its religious contemporary. When so staunch a defender of the bishopric as the "Star of Zion," the official organ of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, starts to "smoke out the mooters," as a recent editorial was entitled, there must be something wrong with the candidates proposed for that exalted position. The Age has insisted in season and out upon the necessity of advancing to the episcopal office only candidates of proved fitness, ability, and character. So insistent has it been upon this last qualification and the need of keeping the high office free from suspicion, that it has incurred a rebuke from its religious contemporary. Now, it is the "Star of Zion" which says that "it is constantly being mooted around in the church that certain candidates are not and will not be eligible for the position to which their supporters desire to elevate them at the next general conference." The "Star" does not doubt that much of this talk is "the campaigning of opponents," but grants that some of the report may or may not be true. After asking "But is it all true?" the editor wants to know who then will decide the right status of candidates. He quotes the church law which gives four qualities in negative statement, which makes it clear that those who possess these disabilities cannot be elected to the office of bishop. It reads: No earlier is eligible to the office of Bishop: 1. Who has not been twenty, years a, traveling minister.

Who has been expelled from our church or from any other denomination for gross immorality These negative requirements do not strike the average layman as being any too severe, except perhaps the first requisite of having spent twenty years as a "traveling minister," unless that classification embraces all members of the itineracy who are appointed to a charge for one year only. Those who are disqualified under the third and fourth requirements, for a plurality of wives or gross immorality, should have no place in the ministry at all, either as elders or bishops, but should bring forth fruits of repentance in some penitential retreat or break stones in a state prison. The age requirement of forty years appears not unreasonable, in view of the fact that a bishop should have had experience enough to garner sufficient worldly wisdom to preserve him from the nets of the unrighteous.

The "Star of Zion" wants to know who it is that presumes to run for the bishopric who does not square with the provisions of the law first quoted. All good churchmen should be interested in answering this question and squealing such candidates in their incipiency. It is a good sign when such a church organ as the "Star of Zion" directs attention to the necessity of careful selection in the choice of men for the bishopric. KU KLUX UNIVERSITY. Special dispatches from Indianapolis to the New York dailies last week announced that the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, realm of Indiana, will take over Valparaiso University, pay all its obligations and build an educational institution larger than either of the two State universities. If the Klan cannot conclude the financial arrangement necessary to secure Valparaiso University, it plans ultimately to own some educational institution in Indiana, where the teaching of Americanism, as defined by the Klan, will be emphasized. White domination will of course be the ele- keynote of the system of Klan education, er- with special attention to the art of barring mo- from civic and political activities all brands of foreigners, whether naturalized or not, inst- Jews, Catholics, and Negroes. The legal de- partment will make a specialty of drafting dur- laws to embody these aims, while the school tra- oratory will teach how to incite the mob to No- violence by frenzied appeals to a spurious patriotism. The industrial department will in- clude the forging of chains and manufacture The of rope and faggots for use at lynchings and pos- burnings. The sewing department will furnish the masks and heads for midnight forays. White domination will of course be the keynote of the system of Klan education, with special attention to the art of barring from civic and political activities all brands of foreigners, whether naturalized or not, Jews, Catholics and Negroes: The legal department will make a speciality of drafting laws to embody these aims, while the school of oratory will teach how to incite the mob to violence by frenzied appeals to a spurious patriotism. The industrial department will include the forging of chains and manufacture of rope and faggots for use at lynchings and burnings. The sewing department will furnish the meaks and bands for midnight toraya, as a preliminary to all forms of intimidation and assassination. The engineering depart will undoubtedly devise improvements to the crude torturing machine which crushed the life out of the two white victims of the Klan at Mer Rouge, before their bodies were thrown into the lake. As an instrument for increasing intolerance and racial antagonisms, we think that any educational institution controlled by the Ku Klux Klan would be most effective. It would be a constant incitement to lawlessness and vioting. The pretensions of the Klan to supercede government established by law would lead to wholesale anarchy and rebellion. Any state that would permit the establishment or opening of such an institution would be inviting its own destruction. While on this subject, we cannot understand how a justice of the Supreme Court in New York State could approve papers of incorporation for the Ku Klux Klan as a charitable organization. The Buffalo justice who permitted such a farce to be perpetrated could not have been ignorant of the real purpose and objects of the organization. The title of the Klan is sufficient notice to any intelligent person that its intent is unlawful. If it is claimed that the approval of such incorporation papers is merely a ministerial function, based on the statements made in such papers, why was it that a justice in New York City some years ago exercised his discretion in the case of The Frogs. The justice in question considered the title inappropriate for an organization composed of members of the theatrical profession and refused his approval. To be sure, recourse was had to another justice who had heard of the "Frogs of Aristophanes." and approved the designation. The title of the Ku, Klux Klan should be sufficient to brand, it as an unlawful organization, whether it seeks to hide under the mantle of charity or to gain control of a legitimate educational institution: TRYING TO FOOL THE PUBLIC. Before Editor George W. Harris was ousted from the seat which he occupied in the Board of Aldermen, his weekly paper was so filled with praise of Tammany Hall and Mayor Hylan, that it was difficult to determine whether he was a 'Republican or a Democrat. Since the contest for his seat was decided against him and his Democratic friends have turned him out, he has reaffirmed his stalwart Republicanism and set out to recapture the seat by seeking renomination on the Republican ticket. Before Editor George W. Harris was ousted from the seat which he occupied in the Board of Aldermen, his weekly paper was so filled with praise of Tammany Hall and Mayor Hylan, that it was difficult to determine whether he was a 'Republican' on a Democrat. Since the contest for his seat was decided against him and his Democratic friends have turned him out, he has reaffirmed his stalwart Republicanism and set out to recapture the seat by seeking renomination on the Republican ticket. His claim to support by the voters of Harlem is based upon the recital of a record of the many things he says he has accomplished for them in the way of public improvements. As The Age showed a few weeks ago, nearly all of the measures for which Mr. Harris claims the credit, were introduced and pushed to adoption by former Alderman Roberts. The few measures that were not carried out at that time, like the bath house for Harlem, still remain among the possibilities of the future. The offer made to Editor Hairis of space in the columns of The Age to tell its readers what he has really accomplished in the line of public betterment during the time he has served as Alderman, still remains open. If he wants to accept it, he might accompany his claim by an affidavit as an evidence of good faith, to show that he is not trifling with public credulity.

To seek renomination to public office on the strength of the accomplishments of another may be as good a way as any, if the public can be fooled so easily. FIGHTING FOR LIFE. George K. Morris is the chairman of the Republican State Committee and the highest authority on the internal affairs of the party in this State. Mr. Morris seems to agree with the sentiment expressed in The Age last week, as to the importance of the coming election this Fall. In fact he put the situation even more strongly than it was phrased in our columns, when he spoke to the members of the Women's National Republican Federation of Nassau county, at Old Westbury, last week. In his address Mr. Morris was reported as declaring that the Republican party in New York State is "now fighting for its political life, and unless more Republicans are sent to the lower Assembly, Tammany's hold on the Legislature will tighten." This is a correct summary of the situation and and it is up to the leaders of the Republican party to weld into harmony all the elements of party strength in order to avoid the complete loss of political power. In order to enlist the support of all. the elements that have kept the party in power for so many years, it is necessary to remove various causes that have led to dissatisfaction and dissension in the past. For instance, the party should cut out the policy of discrimination and neglect that prevailed during the last Republican State administration in its treatment of the Negro voters. No official recognition was vouchsafed them In order to enlist the support of all the elements that have kept the party in power for so many years, it is necessary to remove various causes that have led to dissatisfaction and dissension in the past. For instance, the party should cut out the policy of discrimination and neglect that prevailed during the last Republican State administration in its treatment of the Negro voters. No official recognition was vouchafsed them in appointments to office, either of an honorary nature or to positions of emolument. They were given the absent treatment on all possible occasions, and naturally they resented this when Governor Miller ran for reelection. art- the the plan were ler- that the It iss- the need and the tu- State wish to save the political life of their party, they must get back to the first principles of the party, with a fair deal for all its constituents as a cardinal rule. The Negro voters are willing to give their support, but in return they demand representation in all the privileges of party organization. THE TUSKEGEE SITUATION. The one feature of the Tuskegee situation provoked by local opposition to a colored personnel in the Veterans Hospital, which really needs public attention, was succinctly pointed out in the editorial columns of the Charlotte "Observer," a North Carolina, daily paper of wide reputation. It read: This is the soundest sense on this question that has yet come to our notice from any part of the white-South. It proves that sanity and tolerance are not entirely lacking among those who do the thinking for that action, although such leadership is not favored by the mob. Yet, if the South is to be freed from the domination of the mob spirit, it must be through some such light and leading. The latest development in the Hospital matter show a stiffening of determination on the part of the Federal Authorities to carry out the policy outlined by the President in the appointment of a colored personnel. The order of General Hines, head of the Veterans Bureau, in directing Mr. Callhoun to return to the Hospital, where he was to take up the duties of accountant, and further ordering Col. Stanley, the acting head of the Hospital, to give him protection from the mob is calculated to bring matters to a climax. The ignorance displayed by Mr. Brisbane is indeed shocking. Evidently he is not aware that the disabled Negro soldiers in the hospital have already petitioned to President Harding to mann the institution with a complete colored personnel. That representatives of the National Negro Medical Association have held conferences with Director Hines of the Veterans Bureau and convinced him that competent Negro physicians are available also seems to be a fresh item of news to Mr. Hearst's chief editorial writer. But it is sheer ignorance that is being manifested, or is the editorial note in keeping with the subtle anti-Negro policy consistently adhered to by the Hearst publications? State wish to save the political life of their party, they must get back to the first principles of the party, with a fair deal for all its constituents as a cardinal rule. The Negro voters are willing to give their support, but in return they demand representation in all the privileges of party organization. THE TUSKEGEE SITUATION The one feature of the Tuskegee situation provoked by local opposition to a colored personnel in the Veterans Hospital, which really needs public attention, was succinctly pointed out in the editorial columns of the Charlotte "Observer," a North Carolina, daily paper of wide reputation. It read: The telegraphic dispatches tell of selection of a committee to "smooth out the difficulties growing from selection of Negro doctors for the hospital for Negro soldiers at Tuskegee." The sound opinion of all good American citizens of this country is that there should be no difficulties to smooth out. Negro doctors should be employed for Negro hospitals, wherever located. If there is any element in the Tuskegee situation that needs public attention it is the band of roughnecks that paraded in Ku Klux uniform for the purpose of scaring the Negroes. That is the only feature in connection with the Tuskegee unrestiness which calls for "investigation," and action on the part of the law. This is the soundest sense on this question that has yet come to our notice from any part of the white-South. It proves that sanity and tolerance are not entirely lacking among those who do the thinking for that action, although such leadership is not favored by the mob. Yet, if the South is to be freed from the domination of the mob spirit, it must be through some such light and leading. The latest development in the Hospital matter show a stiffening of determination on the part of the Federal authorities to carry out the policy outlined by the President in the appointment of a colored personnel. The order of General Hines, head of the Veterans Bureau, in directing Mr. Callhoun to return to the Hospital, where he was to take up the duties of accountant, and further ordering Col. Stanley, the acting head of the Hospital, to give him protection from the mob is calculated to bring matters to a climax. If the Federal authorities adhere to their firm stand in favor of law and order, thereby carrying out the policy outlined by President Harding, the mob must eventually subside, although intimidation of all kinds will probably be exerted to make the administration back down. If the prestige of the Federal government is to be maintained in the South, as well as in other parts of this country and in foreign lands, there must be no backdown. The President's pledge to open this hospital with a colored personnel must be redeemed at all hazards. ME BRISBANE'S IGNORANCE Says Mr. Brisbane in the "Exening Journal": "In Alabama there has been excitement because the United States Hospital for Negro veterans at Tuskegee was married, as regards its officials, entirely by colored men. At one time it was thought that troops might be called out to quiet the disturbance. Now the white citizens of Tuskegee think they have won their fight for white officials. With 1924 to close at hand they may be disappointed, but this is certain: The trained Negro soldiers in the hospital would preface white doctors taking care of them. There are competent doctors undoubtedly, but not enough of them." The ignorance displayed by Mr. Brisbane is indeed shocking. Evidently he is not aware that the disabled Negro soldiers in the hospital have already petitioned to President Harding to mann the institution with a complete colored personnel. That representatives of the National Negro Medical Association have held conferences with Director Hines of the Veterans Bureau and convinced him that competent Negro physicians are available also seems to be a fresh item of news to Mr. Hearst's chief editorial writer. But it is sheer ignorance that is being manifested, or is the editorial note in keeping with the subtle anti-Negro policy consistently adhered to by the Hearst publications? SOUTHERN WHITE EDITORS MAKE PROPAGANDA ABOUT MIGRATION Notwithstanding that fully informed authorities both Federal, State and local, unite in declaring that the migrating Negro, as a mass, is not returning to the South, less than one per cent, in fact, not remaining permanently in the North—southern dailies are seizing every will o' the wisp in the form of information that can be twisted to serve as a basis for arguing that the Negro is returning South. As evidence of this, witness two expressions below, from North Carolina and Georgia, respectively, both containing statements so far fetched and without foundation in fact as to be ludicrous. Read the following: The Negro Home in the North. From the Charlotte, N. C., Observer Of course publication at this time of the woes encountered by so many of the Negroes who have migrated to the North in recent months will do no good to those who have had the experience. It has been observed in recent days that the Southern trains have been bringing back the "homecomers" in large numbers, and the stories these people tell ought to make those who have remained at home glad to stay. It is true that the Negroes get higher wages in the industrial centers of the North, but the expenses? They find that a dollar here goes further than three dollars there, and the houses they find not only cost more in the way of rents than the houses they lived in here, but they are "hardly fit to live in." On this point The Observer, has received official information through an organization which Philadelphia has been forced to form, by reason of the rewarning in of Negroes for whom the city can find no homes. It is known as the Committee on Negroes Migration and is in action for assistance to the more Comments By The Age Editors On Sayings of Other Editors The Age Readers' Forum ment into that city. The directing manager of this organization, Mr. Bernard Newman, sends this paper a report by the Philadelphia Housing Association which he thinks contains information that might prove interesting to Negroes, expecting to go to that place. The association has just completed a survey of the vacant houses in that city, in which over 16,000 dwellings were studied in 14 industrial sections. They were of all sorts and conditions. Some were of frame construction, while others were of brick or stone. They varied in size from the three-room, three-story band-box type, to the 10 and 12-room dwelling. A majority of these houses were located on main streets, some were on minor streets 20 feet wide, and others were in courts and alleys. Rents varied widely from $11 to $100 and over. Over 10 percent of the dwellings inspected were unfit for occupancy "because of insanitation or dislipidation." Approximately 408 homes for rent out of 400,000 were "fit to live in." So it appears that the Negro home in the North is not the elegant affair the Negroes have imagined it to be. There is no yard or garden. The better chance is that the Negro landing in the big cities will be fortunate if he should find so much as a cubby hole into which to move. He will need no bed, for the sleeping quarters are in one-room and on shelves ranged alongside the wall like bunks in the steerage. According to the correspondent of the Birmingham Reporter, the Georgia Knights of Pythias had a general housecleaning at the meeting of the grand lodge of the order, held at Rome, Ga. The report stated: Prof. W. H. Carter, of Tuskegee Institute, Alabama acted as special auditor for the Pythians of Georgia and his work is passed as a masterpiece finding a shortage of something more than a hundred and nineteen thousand dollars of which there was no record, showing its whereabouts. Every officer or those who had charge of funds laid it on the two dead officers. Of course they could not answer and the brethren who kept records with them knew that very well and the shortage was placed on their dead shoulders, which tailed to help the Grand Lodge in its effort to recover. Of course the delegation refused to believe it and while they may not put anybody in the penitentiary, they refused to reelect B. W. Warren who had served the order for the last twenty-three years. G. N. Stoney who had aspirations for Grand Chancellor, and had acted as master of exequier for five years, and Dr. Turner, medical registrar, who had served the order for fifteen years, was also defeated. In fact, the centre old force was let out of the pasture. For several years Tink Act has urged the necessity for our fraternal orders and secret societies to have their financial officers bonded and to have their accounts audited by expert accountants. The case of the Georgia Pethiany is a concrete example of the losses possible without such precautions. It is now announced that the audit is put in the hands of a certified accountant and an expert bookkeeper for the office of grand chancellor. Discussing the necessity for Negro detectives or policemen the Louisville News discounted the doubt expressed as to the intention of the present Republican municipal administration to take such a step. It said further: The only reward the Negro has got White Farmer Landlords Should Advise Tenants to Attend Farmer's Congress Editor of THE NEW YORK ACE: Nothing would be more encouraging and stimulating to the Negro farmers who are tenants, than to have their landlords urge them to attend the Negro Farmers' Congress at the A. & T. College, Greenboro, N. C., August 10. All accommodations are free, i.e. board, lodging, etc. Of course, each farmer will have to become a member of the College by paying a dollar fee for which he will receive a nice badge, and this badge will admit him to the dining hall, dormitories and other departments of the college free of charge. It will be a fine outing for tenant farmers and their families. It will be helpful both to the tenants and their landlords. Why? Because the very best available information on all phases of farming will be decimated by experts from the State and United States Department of Agriculture at this meeting. Therefore, the tenants will return refreshed, stimulated and encouraged, brimming, full of new information that he will anxiously apply with renewed energy on his landlord's farm. By so doing, he will make more for himself, and thereby make more for his landlord. Again, the very fact that the landlord advises his tenants about such meetings and urges them to come, will cause the tenant to feel that his landlord has his best interest at heart, so it will serve to draw them closer together and cement their interest for the common good of all concerned. In know that such a practice is new, but I feel that the white landlords will find it very profitable. I should like to hold up as an example in this respect, Mr. W. P. Baker, a white landlord of Robertson County who not only encouraged his tenants to come to our Negro Farmers' Congress in Lutberton County last year, but came himself to see if they were there, after he had advised them to come, and also to get the wholesome information given out by experts for both them and himself. We shall be glad to make provision for any white farmer who wishes to attend our Greenboro meeting, for most of our openers will be white men and women, so they will not be the only white people in attendance. Please don't forget that all Negro farmers who provide free board and From Athens, (Go.) Herold. Mr. Henry Comer, who has a modern dairy farm near Skull Shoals, says that last week eight Negroes who had joined the exodustors and gone to Pennsylvania returned to their old homes. Four of them had left his farm and the others were from his neighborhood. They asked for their old jobs and will start work Monday, as they wanted to rest up after their long journey; and visit among friends who had remained at home. These Negroes are thoroughly cured of their folly and freely talk of their experience in Yankeeeland. They said they were paid good wages, but it took every cent they could make to live on. They had to pay $5 a month for a small room, and if the money was not paid promptly they had to vacate the premises. Only skilled labor could find work and there is nothing for a common farm hand. They say many Negroes have to sleep in the parks and there is suffering among them. Next winter, when cold weather sets in, the exodusting darkeyes will be pouring back home faster than they left. The return of these Negroes will doubtless put an end to any more leaving that section. The Age Editors ers of Other Editors for his support of the Republican party is the privilege of shooting craps and of bootlegging. None of the good Negro preachers and big Christians, who supported the Republicans with so much loyalty, has gotten anything worthwhile and The News has yet to hear that any of them has denounced the rotten conditions that exist in Negro communities. That the Chief of Police and Mayor Quinn have been against these things is not because they care a rap about the uplift and welfare of the Negroes, so much as because they are fighting the Republican organization. If they are in good faith there will be no stalling about this matter, but a number of good, worth while colored men will be put on the police force and will be given authority to clean up Negro districts. That is a stinging rebuke to the politicians and preachers who have put party politics above good government. The only hope for the needed cleaning up of such conditions seems to be in the falling out between these politicians. The People's Record of Columbia, S.

Negro Farmers and The Land Banks. The attitude of Federal Farm Loan Banks with regards to the Negro farmer in the South has been shown to be antagonistic through articles prepared The Age by Charles E. Hall of Washington, an expert in the Census Bureau, who has given the subject intensive study. Evidence corroborating the statements contained in Mr. Hall's articles is given in a letter written by John D. Wray, Farm Makers' Club Agent, Greenboro, N. C. supervisor of agricultural extension work in North Carolina, and published in the Greenboro Daily News. Because of its comprehensiveness, Mr. Wray's letter is reproduced herewith in its entirety, as follows: Editor of the Daily Nexes: For some reason that I am not able to explain, it seems that the government joint stock land banks and the federal farm loan banks are not inclined to fav or Negro farms with loans even though they are able to furnish the proper collateral. I am not speaking from hearsey or abut what I have read in the newspaper, but from my actual experiences. I have handled applications myself, that is, I have mailed them to the joint stock land bank at Greensboro and have recommended to a great many farmers to send their applications to the Raleigh joint stock land bank. Some applications were turned down by both banks without giving any justifiable reasons for their actions. For instance, I have a typical cases this morning from both the Raleigh and Greensboro banks. The letters follow: GREENSBORO JOINT STOCK LAND BANK GREENSBORO, N. C. July 11, 1923. John D.

It has also been reported to numerous times in different states that it was believed that gro's applications were laid in some cases they were made and in others, not until all the farmers were sent in, now they were placed before some whites were. I have had Negro farmers all the state at various times to to me that this money was not for Negroes. I am sure there is general impression to this effect out the state and it is because ease with which it appears the farmers have been able to get the as contrasted with the difference Negro farmers have had in that to get the government loans parently as good collateral So I am inclined to believe and I those who read this article with me, that there seems to be position on the part of the loan banks in this state and the Farm Loan bank at Columbia to methods employed above to depress Negro farmer of his rights fit of a fund, that I united United States government has made possible to aid all other farmers who could qualify, some of race or color. Because they have assumed that attitude Negro farmers, thousands have farms, thousands are still in thousands have migrated to the trial plants of the North. Since the intention to return and to debts and redeem their farms and others have given up the strong sacrificed their farms which the investment money in many instances have saved, and gone North to no more. This in my judgment is sad deal of injustice to the Negroes of North Carolina, and I am opinion it is more general further. But while they may give the of applications they have recognized the amount they have granted to Negro farmers, I dare say they will not give the number they have down and the amount required large per cent, of which they are granted according to the law security offered. A man was in my office yesterday stated that he knew a Negro who had tried these government and failed. He said he had an security, but his farm is now all and will be sold in a few days. Whatever explanation or excuse bank officials may give, never there appears to be a flagrantful violation of the law. And it is a disgrace to our southern nation, because the law provides that the Negro may be tried and as provided by the federal farm law act, and any discrimination or attempt to discriminate is an outrageous violation of the law.

"GRAY EYES" Charlotte, N. C. By JAMES H. MORGAN It is rumored that beginning August 1, 1923, the Pullman Company will retire, with pension, all of its employees who have reached the age of 70 years and over. This news has caused consternation and display in almost every branch of the system, but it is in the operating department that the tale is most woefully heard, for if this rumor be true, this retirement will strike hardest those who can least stand it—the porters, due mostly to the small amount of pension paid in this department. Whether this news is true or false (we suspect it's true; it has the earnarks of truth) it has caused a rift in what the Pullman officials so proudly term "The Pullman Family," and it has reopened that "old sore" between the veterans and the recruits. The contemplated action is severely criticised by those who have reached, and those who are nearing, the prescribed age. On the other hand, the younger employees are commending the company's decision. They say, "When a man reaches the age of 70, no matter how spry he may seem, he is superamuated, and as such, should be retired; that he cannot render efficient service, and that he is only in some good man's way." They also contend that if a porter entered the service in the early forties (very few enter that late) he should be able, with a pension, to retire at 70. They further say, that this new ruling will make the younger porter more economical and will also assist him to look out for the future. Of course, they admit that this retirement will be a hard blow to those porters who have relief absolutely on the company allowing them to work as long as they could toddle up and down the car aides, but allow that, in all changes, the few must suffer for the cost of the many. Now, the veterans say, "The company has commenced showing the monkeys in the wood-pile in the free insurance. This is one of the ways it has in sticking us in the back. After all these years of hard work, honesty and devotion, after helping to build up a standard of service which cannot be surpassed in the world; after having practically made the Pullman Company what it is today; after serving it to a degree, wherein we are likened to "Old dog Tower," to retire us on a measly $30 per month, knowing, full well that this sum won't buy a suit of clothes these days, is ingratitude of such magnitude that the Statute of Liberty, were she able to do, would blow her head in shame." Being neither a recruit nor a veteran, we say both are right. Colored "Y" Workers In Attendance on Eastern Y. W. C. A. Conference (Special Offence) Silver Bay, N.Y.-Sixteen colored women, Y. W. C. A workers were delegates attending the Eastern City Conference of the National Young Women's Christian Association held here July 17 to 27. This is the largest number of race workers ever in attendance on a Silver Bay Conference. More than five hundred leaders of city, Y. W. C.

The program was made up of addresses by religious and social work leaders and included lib. study classes, and courses and discussions dealing with vital problems connected with the work of improving conditions, physically, mentally and morally, among women in cities. The colored workers at the Silver Bay Conference were: New York City: West 137th Street Branch—Mrs. E.

Comments of The Age Editors On Sayings of Other Editors Referring to the Klan activity in the matter of the Veterans' Hospital at Tuskegee, the Denver Star asked: "Which shall we have, U. S. Government at Washington or the Invisible Empire at Atlanta? Which?" The answer rests with the Republican administration of which President Warren. G. Harding is the head. The Rev. V. M. Townsend of Little Rock, Ark., in the Southern Christian Recorder, had an article under the head of "My Trip East and Things as I Saw Them." In it he said: The balance of the week I spent in New York City inquiring into the conditions of our church and people. I saw Negroes at work on railroads, street railways and numerous places, where therefore such labor was not known. I observed the same things in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Washington, Baltimore and everywhere. What the outcome of all this migration of Negroes from the South to other climes will be is yet to be determined. So long as the Arkansas traveler found our people working, he ought to feel assured that the outcome of their labor cannot be otherwise than hopeful. Commenting on the failure of the Missouri authorities to punish anyone for the lynching which occurred at Columbia last April, the St. Louis Argus said. While it is true that the public did the lynching, but it is Sheriff Brown who gave his consent. And while the members of the mob should be punished, yet Sheriff Brown should be the one one to answer to the State. Just so long as sheriffs are allowed to stand idly by, and by consent, or passive consent, allow mobs to take prisoners from their charge, and still hold their office as a chairman of the law, just so long as in violence continue. If all the power of the State is necessary to remove Sheriff Brown from County from office, then we shall never be satisfied until that power is exhausted. The logic of this demand is unanswerable. If a law officer images no effort to withhold his prisoner from the mails the intent of the law is defeated and the dignity of the State trumped in the dust. "The Sheriff should be held to a strict responsibility for his dedication of duty. The Cotton Farmer is published by the tenants of the Delta and Pine Land Co., of Mississippi, at Scott, Mass., with the Rev. Ad Wimbs as chairman. It lists some eighteen plantations as interested in the publication. In a recent issue appeared this lament over the fall of Marcus Garvey. While the Cotton Farmer did not agree with Garvey in his vision of a Negro Republic to be founded by the American Negroes, yet we believed his heart was right and he meant well. However good the purpose of a leader of any movement among our people may be, whenever the leader succeeds to the point where there are salaried officers and he can't furnish a salaried office for the rank and file of his educated, followers, then his undoing begins and the well-directed movement must necessarily tumble. Garvey, doubtless, in his efforts to push his vision and at the same time meet the opposition of his former followers, but insurgents, possibly technically violated, postal the laws. If forced to serve the full term of years he will not at the end of his term be an old man and will come out the more prepared to carry on his work. He is evidently of a constructive mind and can evidently do more than academically discuss conditions. No one can gainay his power of organization. Nor his power to subtract the dollars from his gullible followers and waste them by mismanagement and extravagance. The Dallas Express argued in an editorial headed "Right; and Wrong Thinking," that those who suffer most from lawlessness in others should be the last to advocate it. It related this incident: A woman a few weeks ago was heading a car. The conductor, more grief than the occasion demanded, shut the door before she was in catching her hair. When she panicked with fear he gave insult, the conductor said why you go to get the girl. THE NEW YORK AGE FIRST ANNUA L NEGRO COMMERCIAL AT RENAISSANCE CASINO ON JUNE James Cassell, Hilda Bendischur, Mazie Nile The Age Editors s of Other Editors tvised her to make a complaint to the street car officials and in order to assist her get the necessary information to accompany her complaint. He went to see her the next day, and imagine his surprise when she began to abuse him for not adding his voice to her abuse of the day before. She refused to make a complaint and finally drove him from her door. This woman was guilty of wrong thinking. She did not realize that the street railway officials were the proper ones to whom to address her complaint; that they were in position to give her the desired satisfaction. From results obtained from justifiable complaints made in the past, the general public has come to believe that the street railway companies of Dallas are anxious to make their service efficient in order that their customers may be satisfied. They do welcome complaints accompanied by the facts in the case. They will give them careful and courteous attention. The lesson to be drawn from this incident is a valuable one, as to the proper way of seeking redress for insult or injury. It is needed in other places than Dallas. In answer to the question, "Are We Developing Local Leadership in the Colorado Stateman said Very few of those engaged in civic letterment and wrestling with very problems have any idea of the tare reaching benefits of their effects not to what extent this may turn into encouragement to those of another community. The true worth of a man is self-satisfaction measured in his home town with others and the virtues of curiosity and leadership in their utterances and sacrifices. Recently two permanent Dinner Negro professional men were called into a summer conference in Parksville, hundreds of white students were meeting and discussing problems in national interest. Some of the premises at a charmed idea suggested the most of hearing from the Negro in Nature, the white man want to hear that part of the race problem in presenting to him with as little of his own views and as possible thoughts to light (but two representatives accepted the invitation to address the conference body facing a majority of young men with South African prejudice and has been told to withdraw only one side of the position presented to them. However our speakers neither finished from the responsibility nor offered anything that could be construed as a compromise in their arguments. As a result the conference went on as result not only endorsing our propaganda but as strongly urging a federal, enactment against Lynchings. This action on the part of the student conference together with the names of the two Negro speakers was released to the press of the country last week and every paper of prominence gave it space. The significant feature of this is that just at present cooperation on the part of the races is not only being urged but is actually getting beneficient results as was evidenced by a lecturer at one of our prominent churches last Sunday night.

THE STAGE AND ATHLETICS Wills' Chance for Battle With Dempsey Seems to Be Very Slender for This Year Rickard, Dominating Influence in New York State Boxing Situation To All Appearances, Has Long Been Opposed to Matching Colored Fighter With White When the announcement was made that Dempsey had signed to fight Firpo here on September 14, it was learned that Dempsey's manager had just refused to sign for a Dempsey Wills fight at the Yankee Stadium. The offer was made by the Cromwell Athletic Club, which conducts bouts at the Yankee Stadium, and might have netted the champion $500,000, as it was on a percentage basis of the gross receipts. The only excuse that Dempsey now has or ever has had for not meeting Wills is that he is a Negro. And the only reason Dempsey has been permitted to fight New York State after discriminating against those after it is through the influence of Tex Rickard. Who has a monopoly on boxing in this city. For more than two years Rickard openly opposed mixed bouts in this state, then when it appeared that several other promoters were able and willing to stage this bout, "Tex" suddenly turned in favor of the bout and entered the competition for its promotion. It is thought that this move was a strategic one to prevent any other promoter from getting the bout, as he knew that Kearns favored him and would sign with him in preference to all others. The principal reason the public will not force Kearns to make good his statement that the champion would fight Wills this year is that during the past three months, New York has had five big bouts, three being for championships, and is about fed up with boxing for one season. After the Firpo-Dempsey contest, another big bout will hardly be held here until next season. In the meantime, local fans are hoping that Firpo will leef Dempsey, and in order to win the championship back for this country, fight promoter will at least turn to Wills as the best heavyweight in the country to be Firpo's next opponent. Some of the politicians who want to end this kind of discrimination might inquire of the Governor how it is that the State Athletic Commission permits Rickard to act as a promoter, matchmaker and virtual manager of Firpo at the same time. LINCOLN AND CUBAN STARS DIVIDE DOUBLE HEADER LAST SUNDAY Local Team Swamped Cubans in First-In Second, Visitors Get 7 Runs in 1 Frame in 1 Frame. For the second time this season, the Lincoln Giants and Cuban Stars divided a double header at Protectory Oval on Sunday, July 29. The Lincoln won the first by a score of 14-3 and lost the second 9-8. Dave Brown, the star southpaw for the Lincoln, was opposed by Oscal, who was off form and was knocked out in the fourth round after being hit for eight runs. He was replaced by Lopez, who fared very little better. Brown pitched a great game and held the Cubans scoreless until the eighth inning. The Lincoln began scoring in the first inning, when Wilson the lead-off man hit a single and was scored by Singer who hit a home run. Dave Brown also scored a homer during this game. With the score 10-0 in the eighth inning, Brown let down and allowed two runs and one more in the ninth. A feature of the game was the star catch of Singer in the fifth inning and the excellent batting and fielding of Wilson. In the second game, Joe Williams was opposed by Juanelo. Williams was hit for a single by Fabre and two other batters got on base before any one was put out. The next two batters hit infield flies and only one run was scored by the Cubans during this hiting. The Lincolncs scored three runs in their half of the first inning and three more in the second, one of which was a bower by Thomas, Juanelo was re- placed by Dehigo and in the fourth in- ning Williams was replaced by Hol- land although seven runs were scored by Cubans in this inning which gave them a lead of one run. Both sides tightened up after this and neither was able to score again.

EDWARDS WINS SHORT BATTLE FROM MICKEY DELMONT ON THURSDAY Thought scheduled to fight the seminal of the Criqui-Dandee bout with Irish Johnny Curtin at the Polo Grounds on July 29, Danny Edwards had to be satisfied with fighting three rounds with Mickey Delmont of Newark instead. This change came at the last minute when it was found that Curtin was six pounds overweight and that the final bout must be started at ten o'clock. Accordingly the semi-final bout was stopped at a quartet of ten. The crowd of thirty-five thousand was badly disappointed when the announcement was made that Delmont would substitute for Curtin and booed from the beginning of the bout to the end. Edwards also looked the picture of disappointment as he entered the ring. He had trained faithfully and was in superb condition for a fight with Curtin. Naturally he did not rel the idea of fighting a "has been" for three, or four rounds, but he had to go through with it. During the three rounds the bout lasted, the colored fighter was master of the situation every minute. He showed some clever footwork and landed several times. He was too experienced and body but Delmont was too experienced to be knocked out in so short a time. The fact that the judges awarded the bout to Edwards did not seem to satisfy the fans as they continued to hibo and boo the fight until the men had left the ring. Edwards weighed 117½ pounds and Delmont 119. It is was interesting to note that about five thousand of the thirty-five thousand fans present were colored, several sections of the upper stands were composed largely of colored. Clem Johnson Stops Sam Lanford in Fight for Championship of Mexico (Telegram to The New York Age) Jaurez, Mexico—Clem Johnson of New York stopped Sam Langford of Chicago, the heavyweight champion of Mexico, in the thirteenth round of a scheduled fifteen round obut for the national title here on July 28. Langford was knocked out after one minute and twenty-five seconds fighting of the thirteenth round, with both eyes practically closed.

Since Harry Wills, the colored heavyweight champion, will not be given a chance to fight Jack Dempsey small Octet her, if at all this year, several promoters are now trying to arrange a host between Wills and Bill Tate of Chicago. Joel McMahon, the matchmaker at the Commonwealth Club, has offered $200,000 for the bout, to be held at his club on August 25. Paddy Mullins has not yet done so. It is thought that he favors the Queensboro Stadium for this match, as it is huge. The champion at this stadium is Simon Flaberty, a business person of Mullins and one of the men who wants to stage the Dempsey-Wills fight Wills and Tate have met three times with Wills having scored a knockout in their first encounter, and losing the sec TATE and George Moore, his manager, readily agreed to McMahon's terms, but TATE K.'S O. BUDDY JACKSON IN BOUT AT COMMONWEALTH CLUB Bill Tate of Chicago scored a knockout over Buddy Jackson of Panama in the trenth round of their scheduled twelve-round bout at the Commonwealth Club on Saturday night, July 28, but did it in such a fashion that he was more unpopular with the fans after the bout than before. Tate was so far superior to his opponent in every way that he was expected to score a knockout in the first or second round. That he did not do this was due largely to his style of fighting, as he remained on the defensive until the last round, only hitting Jackson when the latter came to him. However, Jackson showed unusual pluck in going after Tate and landed some good blows to the body in the early rounds, but Tate used his head for a punching bag throughout bout and in the last round sent him down the court with a right upper arm to the jaw. When the bout ended Jackson received applause for staying ten rounds while the winner left the ring with the hisses and boos of the fans ringing in his ears. Apparently the local fans have not forgotten the time Tate quit fighting Harry Wills in Long Island City. He weighs 230 1/2 while Jackson weighed 199. The most interesting bout of the evening was between Bobby Risdon, a fast young bantamweight of Panama, and Willie Sucesa of Brooklyn. The bout was for six rounds and both fought hard in every round. Risdon won by a single point, for a bantamweight round and was awarded the judges' decision. Risdon weighed 116 and Sucesa weighed 114. Joe Jeanette was the referee.

JOHN LESTER JOHNSON KNOCKS OUT 'KING' TUT JACKSON IN FOURTH Battle Staged at Idora Park Youngstown, on July 24 New York Boxer Given Ovation. (Telegram to The New York Age) Youngstown, Ohio.—All doubt as to the relative abilities of John Lester Johnson of New York City, and Tut Jackson of Washington Court House, rivals for heavyweight honors, was set at rest when John Lester thoroughly and completely outclassed Jackson, knocking the Washington Court House boxer out in the fourth round of what was intended to be a twelve-canto affair. The battle was staged at Idora Park on Tuesday evening, July 24, by Al Zill, and the attendant fans were worked up to a high pitch of interest. Tut Jackson's record included some fifty knockouts, Sam Langford being numbered among his victims, and he had trained to the minute for this fight. A year ago, the New York boxer fought here and put the K. O. on Mexican Joe Lawson, and ever since the Youngstown fans have been crying for a chance to see Tut Jackson in the ring with Johnson. There were only forty seconds to go in the fourth round, when Johnson let go a short right upper cut which landed square and fair just under the left ear and Jackson went down like a "bag of potatoes," as one Youngstown writer put it. "King Tut" was out for fully ten minutes. John Lester led all the way. He had hit Jackson at will, and wherever he wanted to. Tut has never claimed to be a scientific boxer, but did set up as a slugger. In this battle the New York man made him look like a novice. In fact, so greatly was Johnson his superior, that the Boxing Commission was inclined to think Jackson had laid down. But Jackson had laid down his bringing Tut back to himself and the lump under his ear, the size of an egg, showed that the Washington Court House "King" was genuinely and altogether kayod. Of course, Jackson claims a return fight with John Lester. The fans gave the winner an ovation.

At the eleven o'clock services Sunday morning, Pastor Bolden gave an exposition on the first lessons in Emmanuelism. Officer Emmanuelism is the recollection of a Jewish prophetic tradition of an everlasting, righteous unification of all people, and of children that Jesus, the Christ, the Lord of life, is that principle at its highest point in human history. We symbionting believers are endeavoring as we grow into the unlimited truth of being to exemplify the reality of life that Jesus has endured in Him, demonstrating the truth that God ever with us. "In the Emmanuel truly man, very God; he has two perfect, whole motives poured in one person (Matthew 11: 18, 25). Jesus (human) saves his people from their sins. Emmanuel has with us (Luke 17: 40). The physical heals and moral rests with God. Approval (Luke 10: 1). He is the word of Life. (Ephesi 33: 6). He was before the earth was (Proverbs 8: 23, 41). He was in the beginning (John 1: 1, 14). He is the Father, God in creation (Genesis 1: 1). "Where is the Emmanuel?" He is everywhere. He is omnipresgt and emmanuel (Eph 4: 5, 6; Acts 17: 27, 28). What does the Emmanuel know? He is the behicler, the motives and motives. He is Omnipresent, (Ephesi 19: 1, 15; Psalms 90). What can the Emmanuel do? He can do whatsoever he willeth. (John 10: 15, 14, 16, 26). "How long has the Emmanuel lived?" He has lived forever (Palms xc: 1, 2; John 6: 14, 15). There is but one Emmanuel? There is but one. He is one Lord in the Trinity and He is the Trinity in Is the Emmanuel good? He is not just true and good (John 3:14, 52). Does the Emmanuel love us? Yes. John 4:16; John 3:16). Does the Emmanuel have all the blessings he will need and does with his liberty in glory (John 5:27, S3, 58, Palm 3:1; Psalm 121; Matthew 6:25, 54). How does the Emmanuel manifest himself to us? He manifests Himself where in nature, in the holy ship- ship, in universal mind as the Father, in the earth, in the heaven. So Sup. Hogans opened the Sunday- day at the usual hour, and gave a brief review of the lesson. The litera- tive society convened at 4:30. Yrs. E.

St. James Presbyterian The services at St. James Presbyterian Church, 59-61 West 131st street near Lenox avenue were. of an inspiring order all day. In the morning Dr. Hyder preached from Hosea 4:66. The function of teaching? Dr. Hyder told down, the foundational proposition that while information should be the normal service of everybody. The speaker said, many things, that the text was an expression of the pity in a divine heart as the appealing ignorance of His children. This patho is further aggravated when it is considered that God, in His wise providence, has arranged and thrown open so many avenues through which men may inform themselves about the things that make life worthwhile. No teacher is qualified to teach, either in pulpit or school-house or college, the minister said, unless he has three things: first, love for the pulpit; second, for truth both abstract and concrete; third, the real teacher of men must have the ability to impart what he knows to others—in a word, the teacher must cause the pupil to know what he does not know—this is teaching. The Hebrew prophets were the world's foremost teachers, because their didactic system was afame with love for their people. Their utterances were not only what they saw in vision but also what they felt. Jesus Christ, the one of how to organize a life and live it, was a visible plane, combined in His personality, the elements of a real teacher. Therefore a study of His methods of teaching should occupy a large place in every teacher's life, whether in schoolhouse, college or pulpit. Communion and baptism will be administered next Sunday at the evening service. All members who have joined the church during the month of July are urged to be present to receive the subject for fellowship by the church. Subject for the end of the world near at hand?

The morning services last Sunday were uplifting and devotional. Dr. Oliver filled his pulpit. His four sermon on the "Parable" was speed on "The Ten Virgins"; text, Matthew 25.6. Dr. Oliver laid stress on the value of Light to one's life, and how it reacts on Soong good for one's own health with those of olden days, the speaker made clear the fact that the mistake is oftimes made by outward preparations or sham readiness and not enough attention paid to the inner spiritual or the real necessities. "The church," said the speaker "is the bride and Jesus Christ is the bridgroom." There is a certainty of His coming, but not known, but according to the past, his coming will be attended by endermen. Therefore, in order that you may make up the church, may be allowed to enter and enjoy the institution, may keep, or large premises, for the plenty of oil and remedy. 3 o'clock and the Rev. J. D.

SCHOOL 230 West 135th Street New York Age Building BROOKLYN MEETING PROTESTS TUSKEGEE HOSPITAL SITUATION Speakers Cite Record of Race as Entitling Negro to Consideration in The Holy Trinity Baptist Church Franklin and DeKalb avenues, was crowded last Sunday afternoon, the occasion being a protest meeting concerning the present situation at Tuskegee Institute, as it pertains to the Government hospital recently erected for veterinary use. The meeting was called to order by the pastor, the Rev. T. S. Harren, who in no uncertain terms defined its object and called upon the vast audience to stand together for the rights of the race. Mrs. M. C. Lawton, the 16th speaker, took as the basis of her remarks the fact that the governor had been kept in her hearers to keep up the fight for justice and he contented with reading less than a square deal, this she said can only be accomplished through radical solidarity. Assistant District Attorney William F. X. Geogham gave a most optimistic talk on the military and civic record of colored race. He said that presidents should not for them all it has won over other races. The Rev. H. H. Proctor, pastor of the Nazarene Congregational Church, described the circumstances surrounding the hospital and said that he has still faith that the right will ultimately prevail. He spoke in highest comments to the World War, Dr. W. C. Brown, pastor of the Fleet Street A. M. E. Zion Church, briefly and thoughtfully reviewed the causes leading up to the hospital and placed the responsibility for the unfortunate affair to the fact that the Government played falsely when it placed that institution in Alabama. He said Negroes will have to learn to think in the South and talk in North. The young index of the United board of the Bridge Street A. M. E. Church, under direction of Mrs. Hattie Brown, served throughout the exercises. The Linen Shower Club, with Miss Esther Bradley, Mrs. Lucy Tinsley and Mrs. G. H. Fayerwater, were in charge of the reflections. The session was furnished by the Nazarene Congregational Church choir, with William Taylor as choir-master.

By invitation of the Kickerberger Post, Commander Bell spoke to the comrades of the Kickerberger expressed full sympathy with the Col. Chas. Young Post in his justice for ex-soldiers in the South.

LUKE'S MISSION Made Work Self-Supporting, Gained Diocesan Recognition—Goes to Pittsburgh. Last Sunday was a day never to be forgotten at the mission.

Rev. Scott Wood, who has been serving the people of the mission for the past few months, preached his farewell sermon and tended his resignation.

Clifton, rector of St. David's P. E. Church, 384 East 60th street, The Bronx, has aroused considerable interest among the residents of that section through a strong sermon which he preached on Sunday, July 22, in the course of which he made a presentation of a new trial to Mrs. Anna Buzell, a white woman recently convicted on the charge of killing Fred Schneider, a wealthy contractor, with whom she had been living. Dr. Clifton's text was from St. John's Bible reading. Let him wipe his without a stair for the first time." The rector said that, he knew Schneider personally, as did many of the congregation, and that he was a man of commanding personality, a man born to command and lead other men. But, said he, "I do not Selieve, and I am positive that many persons in The Church do believe that she killed Fred Schneider." "We should pray for Mrs. Anna Buzzi," said Dr. Clifton. "Not for the response of her soul but for the granting of a new trial. She is now a condemned woman. She is a modern outcaste. She is a victim of the modern social mismaa of today. She is a victim of the disease which is rotting away the foundations of society. All social ills can be traced to one common cause. We can trace them from the violations of the law at the home. The race that holds not sacred its women, is a last people." Observations on Bees. By A. L. ASKEW. Chemist The bee, his marvelous social organization and ability to cooperate one with another have long been known to history. Aristotle, accounted by some the greatest Greek philosopher, wrote concerning their instincts and habits. three hundred years after the founding of the North Carolina bee is as follows: A gigantic mouth, two envious eyes with powerful optic nerve, four legs, two wings, weight approximately 5 gres, and amber color. Their house is called a hive and in each hive there is one king bee, one queen bee, seven drones and fifousands of faithful working bees, laboring from April to September similar to slaves. The queen lays hundreds of thousands of eggs, and the drones inflictresses for a larger population. During the spring when the young family of bees have developed enough for work, the leader prepares to establish a new home. Some beautiful day they all begin to assemble outside the gum, hours ahead of time, awaiting the order of the leader. The order given, they go up in the skel like a cloud and pitch somewhere in the garden. They are followed in it, and then the honey is taken from the hive. Some farmers take too much honey from them and to save the bees from dying have to cook sweet potatoes for them to live on in winter. When you are in the garden and come in contact with bees, you must not allow unless you begin to destroy the roses and other flowers, which is repugnant to them. If you do you will hear them humming something like Ceasar said when Brutus slew him. "Veni, vici," Atlantic Cable by Fields are the re-creation of a life is more marvelous than was the laying of the Atlantic Cable by Fields or the requiring 124 years to build a nask as Noah did. Scientists have long found that the honey of the bee is a wholesome remedy for cyrrhosis and dizziness. The wax is used to make the bees produce honey to take a gill with you on your honeycomb and the chanches are the oculating will never .e. se. The bees never go on a strike and work until they die. When you hear them fussing over the odorous roses lat. in the evening, they are in trouble for they are afraid to go home without load of the ingredients to make honey for fear of they will be stung to death. And what could be more horrible? New York City Col. Chan. Young Post, A. L. Dr. Krook: Barrieup Alexander had been elected chairman of the executive committee of American International.

George Shipman Stark, pastor, at Gerken's Cypress Hills Park, afternoon and evening.

Upon arriving at the Park, one is impressed with its natural entrance of large and beautiful trees. Inside of the gate, acres of ground thickly wooded, are to be seen giving a peaceful and serene atmosphere to whole scene. A short walk brings you to a pleasant and specious pavilion elevated above a large lake which surrounds it. The partition is equipped with facilities for serving dinner, and together with the refreshments which will be awaiting you, don't hesitate to leave home early, and enjoy a good evening meal in the healthy out-of-doors. The Park also has boats to hire for rowing, and the fishing boat you will enjoy during the afternoon. The amenities consist of shooting galleries, merry-go-rounds, and so forth. The gates of the Park will open at 2 clocks in the afternoon. It is during the afternoon that the park can be best appreciated for its natural beauty, and WESTVILLE—Here reliable, industrious men are the Association of New Jersey, inc. any general associations paid.
