Aside from the enrolled membership of 1,720 women, and of the many hundreds, perhaps thousands, of casual visitors who have come to regard the buildings as one of the show places of New York City, records show that nearly 200,000 women and men, mostly women, were recipients of actual service in the various departments of the "Y" during the past year. The actual figure as given out by the officials, show that 185,640 persons engaged in Henry Cecelia Cabiess Saunders, the high executive secretary, is the director head of a well-qualified staff worker.

Republicans Lose By Large Majority in New York City, But Make Gains in Up-State Increase Majority in State Assembly by Capturing Seven or Eight Former Democratic Districts—Tammany Ticket for Supreme Court Justices Is Victorious by Two to One While Tammany seems to have retained its control of New York City, the Republican majority in the State Assembly has been materially increased. Wednesday morning's reports indicate that at least seven Republican Assemblymen have been elected from former Democratic districts. Only two seats appear to have been lost to the Democrats, showing a net gain of at least six votes in the Legislature. In New York City, Assemblymen Jesse and Ullman, Republicans, appear to have been defeated, but Ricca and Clayton, Republican Assemblymen from Brooklyn, are reelected. In the 10th district, Manhattan, Phelps Phelps was reelected over his Tammany opponent. John T. McNeill in the 21st A. D. lost to his Democratic rival, Henri W. Shields. The Democratic Judiciary ticket was elected by a majority of nearly two to one. The lowest candidate of the ten received more than 100,000 majority over the highest Republican nominee. The judges elected to the Supreme Court bench and Justices Jeremiah T. Mulhoney, Aaron J. Levy, Joseph M. Proskauer, Edward J. Glennon, Peter A. Hatting, Charles D. Donohue, Salvatore A. Cotillo, Phoenix Ingrham, all straight Democrats, and Justices Edward J. Gavegan, independent Democrat, and Nathan Bijur, Republican, endorsed by both parties. In the 21st A. D., John William Smith, Democrat, beat H. O. Harding, Republican, for the Board of Aldermen, Martin Healy, Democrat won over Aiken A. Pope, Republican, in the 19th. Finest Dress Shop Owned By Race Women Operated By Mmes. Carrie & Grantland Firm Furnished Costumes for Leading Theatrical Productions on Broadway—Both Women Have Had Large Experience in Leading Establishments Down Town. With few exceptions women are the pioneer business people of the race in New York. More than twenty years ago several determined dressmakers succeeded in securing work with the exclusive shops in the shopping section in the vicinity of 42nd street and made such a favorable impression that opportunities have been opened to them in many of these shops continuously since that time. One of the first colored people to secure work in this section was Mrs. Annie Grantland Horner, who, with Mrs. Carrie Wallace, now conducts the finest dress shop owned by a member of the race at 30 West Slatt street. Mrs. Horner was born in Milledgeville, Ga., and attended graded school in her native town to the fifth grade. She never had any special training in dressmaking but was taught needlework by her grandmother and aunt. She liked this work, and having heard that in New York the ability to do a particular kind of work well would mean success, she early decided to try her luck in New York. and exclusive shop in the same neighborhood, where for twelve years she was in direct charge of thirty-two girls of almost every nationality. About two years ago she opened business for herself at 2311 Seventh avenue. During the time she was in Harlem her shop made costumes for "The (Continued on Fifth Page) So about twenty-three years ago she came to New-York highly recommended by people in Macon, Ga., for whom she had worked, and began looking, for work. At that time the majority of colored' people in New York, especially women, were employed in domestic service and it was so unusual for a colored woman to seek work as a dressmaker, that despite her high recommendations no one would employ her at first. Started as Maid-Seamstress The little money she had saved was going fast; for living expenses, so in order to earn something to live on, she took a job as maid for a friend in Jersey City, who was ill. While working at this job her employer learned that she could sew and gave her work making clothes for her family when the regular maid returned to work. Men. Horner's connection with this family and their subsequent recommendation gave her the opportunity to apply for work as a drafter for the shop of Mine. Charlesworth at 43rd street and Lerington avenue. At that time Ine Claire had just crime into grandeur as the star of the "The Queen Girl." The new colored girl was sent to this shop to copy the gown worn by Mine Claire. She was so persuaded to dress this girl that her parents with the same name went away.

Y.—The Eighteenth Amendment never will be repealed in the lifetime of the present generation at least; it is the duty of the government to enforce it to the letter and the first demand of American citizenship that the people obey it, declared Colonel William Hayward, Federal District Attorney, in an address at the First Presbyterian Church here last Sunday. and exclusive shop in the same neighborhood, where her twelve years she was in direct charge of thirty-two girls of almost every nationality.

Bishop Vernon is in charge of the 17th episcopal district of the A. M. E. Church which includes the Cape Colony, Transvaal, Orange River, Natal and Basutoland conferences. The bishop and his wife have been in this country for several months on leave of absence, during which period he visited various conferences in this country and told of his African work. Loui, Bootlegger King, Shuts Up Delicatessen Hootch-Selling Joints Every place on Lenox Avenue Operated by Loui Immerman as a Camouflaged Hootch Selling Delicatessen Is Diamantled, Stock Moved Out, and Store Is To Let. OPINION IS ADVANCED THAT THIS MOVE BY IMMERMAN IS PRELIMINARY TO DIRECTING HIS ACTIVITIES ALONG WHOLESALE LINES Alleged That Through the Influence He Is Supposed to Have With Enforcement Officials Hs Has Been Able to Force Other Dealers to Purchase From Him. Just what Loui, the Harlem bootlegging king, will do in the future, remains to be seen, but certainly he has seen the "handwriting on the wall" in one particular, for he has dismantled, cleaned out, closed up, and advertised for rent all the premises which he has occupied for so long as camouflaged hootch joints, the disguise assuming the characteristics of legitimate delicatessen stores. This action on the part of Loui follows hard on the publication by The Age in its last issue of hitherto undisclosed alleged facts lending to show that Loui Immerman was head and front of the tremendous traffic in 'denatured alcohol masquerading as corn whiskey, gin and other "likkers" which for months has been degrading and debasing thousands of the citizens of this community. Last week's Age told of the alleged "influence" belonging to Loui Immerman, an influence which purported to enable him to operate "wide-open" hootch joints in the guise of delitatesen stores, where hootch was sold to any and everybody, men and women, without any attempt at secrecy and without need of previous introduction or being accompanied by some one who was known to the hootch dispenser. The Padlock Threat Two weeks ago the United-States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Col. William Hayward, announced that he had secured injunctions against some fifty-four bootlegging establishments in New York City and that he intended trying to put padlocks on these doors so as to put a stop to their illegal activities for at least a year. The fact that Loui has a cousin who is alleged to be a clerk in the office of United States Commissioner Hitchcock, before whom many of the Federal prohibition enforcement officers take their cases against violators of the Volstead Act, may have some significance in connection with this latest move of Loui's. There is nothing direct to indicate that the Immerman cousin transmits information to Loui concerning proposed activities of the Federal agents, but it has been pointed out that it is entirely possible that such could be the case, if the cousin-clerk was so minded. However that may be, the indications point definitely to the conclusion that Loui has decided that his best move is to get out of the limelight so far as the bootlegging traffic is concerned, and so he has cleaned out the various "delficatenes" hooch joints which have been operating under his name and these stores are now carrying big placards in the window and on the door indicating that they are "For Rent." Loui's Future Activities This does not mean, however, that Loni is out of the business of trafficking in bootleg liquor, for it is reported that Big Chief himself has declared that he has mapped out plans for future activities that promise as large or larger profits than have accrued in the past with much less publicity. One man, wise in the ways of the evaders of the liquor laws, declared that Loni's action simply means that he is going to contain himself to supplying the other bootleggers with their alcoholic supplies. In other words, that he is going to capitalize on the power won through "influence" with high officials by compelling his little bootleggers to buy all their supplies from his wholesale distributing agency. There is some substance in this comparison, as it was alleged last week that newcomers in 'Harlem's bootling field were forced to enter into an "arrangement" with Loni, said arrangement including the purchase of all alcohol from him, or else they become subject to activities of law enforcement officials. The result followed inevitably and thus presumably other submissions from of business. It is pointed out that such an experience was had by a Newarker who wanted to cop some of the Harlem "easy money" but who refused to enter into an alliance with Loui. The Newarker is now in jail, it is alleged. In the meantime, other hootch-sellers, including Hyman, "Chief" and the Scala brothers, are continuing with unabated activity. And to their "Cigar Store" and "Malt Parlor" hooch joints, an the replica of the old time saloon, there is to be added the "Drug Store" bootleger, whose nearest approach to conducting a legitimate drug business is the possession of a pharmacist's license. These "druggist," as a rule, have on display a considerable lot of proprietary goods, toilet articles, etc., but they lack even a small supply of the simplest drugs. But they do possess an apparently unlimited supply of various grades of alleged "whiskey," most of which they claim to be absolutely pure bonded goods. A chemical analysis of the stuff is apt to show that it is of a quality that probably never saw the inside of a government warehouse save in the form of grain or wood alcohol. The fact that the government imposes very slight restrictions on dealers in and manufacturers using completely denatured alcohol, which is free of tax and is offered for sale to the general public "for external use only," may be considered to furnish a method by which the unsusceptible druggist can obtain unlimited supplies of synthetic liquors which are sold to the unwary as pure rye, Scotch or corn whiskies or gins. Police Are Active. In the meantime, police officials are showing activity in the matter of arresting violators of the prohibition law. But it is worth while hoting that the arrests made are usually of operators who might be termed "free lance" fellows that is, those who are not in alliance with Loui Immerman, "Chief Pomerantz, or the Italian brothers, Dominique and Tony Scala. Two men, James Murphy and James Kelley, both said to be of 362 West 145th street, were apprehended on November 1 and taken to the 38th Precinct station on charges of illegally transporting alcoholic liquors. The men were riding through Lenox avenue in an auto, License No. N. Y. 764-372, and when arrested at 141st street, they had in their possession, it is alleged by the police, eight cases of French brandy. The next day, November 2, an Italian was taken into custody at 349 Lenox avenue, charged with selling whisky. The three were turned over to Federal officials. The closing up of Loui's places on Lenox avenue has resulted, to all appearances, in an increased business for Hyman and "Chief," for the "tiger store" and "malt parlor" hooch joins operated by the latter two are even more thronged than usual. Cutting Prices of Drinks. At Connie's Irr, conducted by Connie Bamberger, said to be Loul's brother-in-law, the crowds continue to bring the place, and as evidenced by the conduct of patrons leaving the place, there seems to be an angle supply of alcoholic liquors for their consumption. But there is also an extra degree of caution used by the cabaret employer, for it is difficult to discover how and when drinks of this character are served to patrons. Of course, many of those carry it in on their hips and serve them alone. the Scaliberg Cafe recently opened on the street level at corner of 131st street and Fourth avenue, in the same building as the cabaret, the objections being based on the fact that the café was alleged to be drawing liquor customers from the cabaret, seems to have had no other effect than to lead to the lowering of prices by the Scaliberg management. It is reported by a recent customer that when he and a friend were served two drinks, one of rye and the other of gin, and that the costs was only 45 cents—25 cents for the rye as against the usual 50 cents, and 20 cents for the gin. This would seem to indicate that competition between the Italian and Hebrew groups of bootleggers is leading to price-slashing. THE NEW YORK AGE BUREAU 1815 LINCOLN STREET Telephone: Bid 6122 M. R. MOBLEY, Agent Columbia, S. C.-The Rev, J. M. Myers is pushing to the front in his several churches and has added many to his rolls of membership. The attendance at his services is on the increase despite the migration. Many of his members went away and it is said that only a few returned, but for the ones that stayed away, double the amount were added. Dr. M. A. Evans, is again at her post of duty, after having been sick and busily attending to her large practice. She is one of the first,physi- sicians of our city, next to Dr. Frank Johnson, the oldest from point of practice. The sextet under Dr. Wiseman, has began a tour of Northern town. The affair of rebuilding Howard School is at present sleeping. We hope that in that sleep, "what dreams may come" will be to give the colored people something very near equal to what the whites have. We don't expect the equal, right now, but do believe we ought have it anyway. That's one of the reasons so many of our folks have left these parts, not getting here what they can get elsewhere. Two banks have closed doors recently in the city and many of our folks have money in them too, the Merchants and the Liberty. It is hoped that the depositors will get their money. The colored bank. The Victory is on the increase now, having on deposit over $115,000, and not quite two years old yet. It is rumored that another one is on foot. To my mind, one is enough. We are proud to say that a smaller number of colored folks answer at the bar of justice (?) now than formerly. The whites predominate there also. A movement is on foot among some of the residents of the city and country to organize a County Fair to be held on January 1, 1924. An initial meeting was held last week but nothing to give out yet. Lebannon Lodge, No. 6, F. and A. Masons, held forth at their regular communication on Monday night, October 22, and passed three candidates. Old Lebanon is waking up. She is preparing for the celebration of her 54th year of existence on the 8th of December. Grand Master C. C. Johnson carries his membership in this lodge. The Grand doge will convene in Chester on the 10th of December, a large attendance is expected. Old members of Lelanon, who are elsewhere and desire to communicate with the secretary and re-instate, address H. H. Mobley, W. M., 1512 Lincoln street, Columbia, S. C., at once before the grand lodge and "get on board—there is room for many more." No appointments from among, the "faithful" of the colored republicans in South Carolina, have been had as yet notwithstanding, we stuck to our oarsal This is a case of "stand to the trace, fodder or no fodden". It is openly boasted that J. W. Tolbut's appointment as marshal of the Western District will be turned down by the Senate, when it meets, but your correspondent does not believe that a Republican Senate will turn down such a stammer Republican as he, especially now, as the danger line, is not so far away—the campaign of 1924. Nor do we believe that Walter Cohen will fail of confirmation. We hope and pray not; we love the G. O. P.; for she is the only party that ever lirts with us, and we are always ready and willing to plead her cause and pass up her short comings with a hope that she will do better, some day. From the number of country people in town Saturday, trading, money seems to be plentiful. Cotton is bringing 29 cents now, and a good crop has been made and nearly gathered, with a large corn and potatoe crop to follow. The boll weevil has taught the farmer to diversify, thus raising his "grub" at same time he raises his cotton. We have several weekly papers in our state and the greatest news they can put forth is whether they like or dislike certain individuals. It is wrong to take money from people for a paper and load them with your likes and diklites of others. It's nothing to the reading public and I hope they will stop it and work to get all colored folks to work together. The late Mr. Harding said that he on several occasions, made up his mind to appoint colored men to office, and wanting some advice from a colored man about it, would send for one and tell him what he thought of doing and asked him about the man, naming him and he would always find that he would answer Yes, he is a good, bright fellow alright, but he would have to clear that shortage with such and such a church or lodge, and give book that other man's wif, or something the like, so would have to put off the matter and thus it has been put off. And just on account of your personal feelings and begrudgement. Do away with that kind of thing, my brother, because a man that you knock can knock too, and if you can holler you will find that some one can holler as loud about you as you can about him, so let's come together for the best good for all.

Women Forced by Necessity, Engaged at Unloading Coal from Ship at St. Thomas. Economic Bankruptcy Follows American Ownership of Virgin Is'ds, Says Churchstone-Lord A. M. E. Missionary, Returning to States, Reports Dire Conditions Due to Prohibition, With Women Morally Corrupt Through Lack of Labor Opportunity. (By Rev. S. E. Churchatene-Lord) There is much that has been said and written concerning St. Thomas and the Virgin Islands. Much of it has been erroneous and evasive, in order to embarrass the American administration of affairs, as well as to force the natives and Negro inhabitants into a state of unpleasantness with the authorities, so that the Labor leaders of the mainland may discourage American capitalists from investing in the Virgin Islands by inducements which cheap labor on these islands should readily furnish. This and much more. We have been in the Virgin Islands for the past year. We have seen much, heard much, and have considered much in regard to the condition of the people of these islands from every sympathetic and just angles. water, there will come a new and prosperous era for the people of the Virgin Islands. In the meantime, the local government must be financed. The improved system of education developed by Director Nase and Director Limborg call for large expenditures of money continually. Sanitary improvements, road constructions and other governmental works are matters that call for an increase of the taxes. Unquestionably, these taxes bear Americans Not to Blame It is true, St. Thomas, St. John, and St. Croix, Virgin Islands, are in a state of dire economic bankruptcy. But any one coming here with the idea of making a just appraisal of conditions, cannot, in truth, say that it is due to the American administrators sent there (of course they are all white, and this utterance does not excuse the errors of individuals) to govern and administer the Coastwise Laws that seem to be the cause of some of the suffering of the people. To the contrary, the authorities are thoroughly sympathetic with the natives and the business establishments from the old regime, seeking to cooperate with them for the industrial and economic welfare of all concerned. But the organic law, hastily agreed to in the transfer from Denmark to America of the islands, and the subsequent constitutional enactment of Congress in regard, to the enforcement of prohibition have stripped the harbor of foreign ships who would otherwise go to St. Thomas for coal, and have robbed St. Croix of her wealth in sugar and in rum making—the profitable by-product of the sugar cane. Foreign Interest Dominate. It is to be noticed that although America bought these islands, foreign monopolistic interests dominate in the islands. The dock at St. Thomas which furnishes the only means of livelihood to the working class through the coaling of steamers, is owned by the Danes and others. The dry dock is owned by the English. The only permissible bank (according to the transfer agreement) is owned by the Danes, and unfortunately the American bargainers agreed for the bank to circulate everywhere but in the post office Danish currency in an American territory. This is to be for ten or twenty years. The drug store is Danish with a monopoly right. The uncultivated lands of St. Thomas and St. Johns and much of the cultivated lands of St. Croix are owned by Danes and Germans. Some of the proprietors are absent in Europe, indifferent to the development of the islands' industrial resources and to the life and betterment of the natives. These things and others obtaining are underlying causes which offer immediate inducement to American capitalists to invest in the development of the Virgin Islands. American interests refuse to be milked twice by foreign interests whose agents the natives are encouraged to revere at their own improvement, instead of co-operating fully with the American government. And the poor natives and newcomers from the neighboring islands are tempted to froth in the mouth like mad against American "indifference" and social prejudice. Indeed, the Virgin Islands and their people may be pictured as a place where manifest and supposed problems show in cradeness of aspect a conglomeration of political, industrial and social non-conformity to the best American and democratic ideals and to changed world activities. This is due, in a large measure, to the ingrising of unfortunate, unuvaluated and unattuned Dutch, French and British subjects from the neighboring islands, who are led astray by crafty, self-assertive leaders into cleanliness and uncompetitive moods, and against untested progress and industrial regeneration in the Virgin Islands. Not For American Negro. Through American territory, the Virginia Islands do not now offer any investment for wildlife American Natives to attempt agricultural or industrial investments. Colored Americans on the mainland need to wrest the actions of President Coolidge and Congress, as well as the attitude of white American capitalists toward the Virgin Islands. With the enactment of constructive legislation by Congress for the Virginia Islands in regard to prohibition enforcement, administration of the vast unprotected lands in South Tennessee to the point, and conservation measures that will work the most water, there will come a new and prosperous era for the people of the Virgin Islands. In the meantime, the local government must be financed. The improved system of education developed by Director Nase and Director Linbork call for large expenditures of money continually. Sanitary improvements, road constructions and other governmental works are matters that call for an increase of the taxes. Unquestionably, these taxes bear too heavily upon the people. Lament and starvation are everywhere manifest except, perhaps, among those who are in government employ. The Danish banks own nearly every merchant; but should the bank stop its "benevolent" credit of continual loans, it would be good by for every Tom, Dick and Harry who is now trying to run a grocery store, or a dry goods store in the Virgin Islands. Moral Degeneracy Imminent. The natives and other inhabitants are selling personal property—pianos, tables, beds, chairs and valuable family silverware—and leaving the Virgin Islands by the hundreds. We have heard some to say: "I am leaving before the worst come to the extreme." Moral degeneracy is the doom that is now upon the people; as a result of poverty, many of the people are selling their virtue and honor for bread and shelter. The native people want work. They want the old organic law changed. They want a law that will protect them, from the continued increase of poor non-American emigrants that are averse to American ideals. They want the port of St. Thomas to be a free port like unto the Panama Canal. They want the abolition of monopolistic rights to commercial and industrial institutions, so that purely American capital can bear the responsibility of developing the resources of the Virgin Islands. These things, when done, will go far towards saving the name and honor of the American government to the welfare of the people of the Virgin Islands. Raleigh, N. C. Raleigh, N. C.-The fair which was held October 23-28 was largely attended, the exhibits were good. The "Dust of the Earth" rendered at the city auditorium last Wednesday night was received by a very appreciative audience. A very pleasing program was given at the auditorium Thursday night, October 24, consisting of local talent and Mrs. Nell Hunter, Mrs. Mary Jones Richardson and her daughter Princess Mae the harpist. Mrs. Maude Ray and children also Mrs. Irma Vance motorized to the fair last Thursday October 24.

THE NEW YORK AGE Are Hootch Sellers Defying the Law By Bribing Officials? Illicit bootch-sellers operate openly and brazenly in Harlem. Law enforcement officers are not only defied, but it is openly charged that the bootleggers have complete control of official activities through lagge sums paid in bribery. Is this true?

David Lloyd George, Great Britain's war premier, and Premier Smuts of South Africa, seem to entertain widely and divergent opinions as to the political and economic status of British citizenship. Both statesmen made public speeches on the subject—one in New York and the other in London—which were published simultaneously in the daily press. David Lloyd George, Great Britain's w premier, and Premier Smuts of South Africa, seem to entertain widely and diverge opinions as to the political and economic status of British citizenship. Both states men made public speeches on the subject one in New York and the other in London, which were published simultaneously in the daily press. In addressing members of the Lotus Club Lloyd George declared that the future civilization depends on the lying side by side the American and English flags in combat, as they represent the cause of unjustice, right and the cause of humanism. "These two Commonwealths of many race—you have many—we are building into our fabric," he said. "You are welding the into a block which nothing can rend asunder. We are putting them together in our great temple." Said Premier Smuts at the Imperial Conference on political and economic status of British Indians: "There is no equality of British citizenship throughout the Empire. Each separate part of the Empire will settle for itself the nature and incident of its citizenship. It will not only regular immigration from other parts of the empire as well as from the outside world, but will settle the status of its citizens as a matter of domestic concern." Premier Smuts' regime as director, South Africa has been notable for the cruelties and injustices to which natives have been subjected. No overseer of a Southern plantation during slavery was more brutal and inconsiderate of the Negro. Robbins the native of his lawful possessions and the treating him inhumanely has been Smuts' policy. Today in South Africa there are places where the black man and woman are compelled to go to a certain window for their mail. Some months a Negro born on the West Coast, but who has resided in this country for a number of years, spent one night in one of the good-sized towns of South Africa and had to walk the streets. He was a black man and it was against the law for white hotels and places of public accommodations to cater to Negroes. South Africa has a serious race problem on its hands. The situation is one of increasing aggravation owing to Smuts' policy of making Africa for the Africans a land of oppression and suppression, where the mailed fist and spurred boot are ever in action and might is right. No small wonder Premier Smuts does not want all living under the British flag to be equal politically and economically! And when he argues in favor of each part of the Empire settling for itself the nature and insidents of its citizenship, he is seeking to create a sentiment that will permit him to continue his despotic rule over the natives in South Africa without interference from either Downing Street, London, or the outside world. If the natives were permitted to vote they would overwhelmingly declare against living under the present form of government and favor the appointment of a British Governor. The South African Dutch have failed dismally as wards of a weaker people.

FIELD-HAND MAKING GOOD IN THE NORTH The Negro who has deserted the cotton fields of the South for the industrial plants of the North is making good, according to needs of large manufacturing plants. By many he is rated far above the European immigrant. E. F. Roberts, vice president in charge of the manufacturing at the Packard Car Company, Detroit, has this to say on the subject: "We have found in the Packard plant that the Negro, both in skilled and semi-skilled labor, is a good worker, considerably better than the average European immigrant. We have Negroes who have been in the employ of the Packard firm for a hundred years, and we regard The Negro who has deserted the cotton fields of the South for the industrial plants of the North is making good, according to heads of large manufacturing plants. By many he is rated far above the European immigrant. E. F. Roberts, vice president in charge of the manufacturing at the Packard Car Company, Detroit, has this to say on the subject: "We have found in the Packard plant that the Negro, both in skilled and semi-skilled labor, is a good worker, considerably better than the average European immigrant. We have Negroes who have been in the employ of the Packard firm, for several years, and we regard Negro has a real future in industry in America" Superintendent Tellinger of the Parker & Webb Packing Company of the same city declares "that finally in the human equation of industry the capitalist is more concerned, with the unit of work produced in a given time at a given cost than they are in the color of the laborer's skin that produces the work." If the Negro were given a square deal the South would not have to worry over its labor problem. SOUTHERN INCONSISTENCY AGAIN The daily papers of Little Rock, Ark., publish the story of Miss Johanna Stewart, a young Negro woman, being fined for befriending three small motherless white children, which gives an insight into Southern inconsistency on the race question. Miss Stewart went to Little Rock from Wyoming to visit her mother, taking with her three white children whose father, a railroad conductor employed her as nurse. The mother of the children died three years ago. When the authorities of Little Rock learned that a Negro woman was housing white children they ordered her arrest, and she was fined $50, charged with contributory dependency. Later the fine was suspended, provided Miss Stewart, or "Johanna," as the daily papers refer to her, refrains from interfering with the children she was hired to look after. According to the daily press, "'Johanna' told the Judge she expected to return to Wyoming; and continue her work for the father of the children, and that she was desirous of taking them with her; that the children have been given into the custody of Mrs. W. P. McDermott, probation officer." One paper concludes by saying: "The Stewart woman formerly lived in Little Rock and was familiar with the laws applicable to whites and blacks." The same white people who object to Miss Johanna Stewart taking care of the three motherless children under her mother's roof are the same who indulge in a lot of sickening maudlin sentiment about "nursing at the breast of a black mammy." They are the same who employ Negro nurse girls, who sometimes see more of the children than the parents themselves, often eating and sleeping with them. A poll of nurses for children in Little Rock would undoubtedly reveal the fact that nine-tenths of them are Negroes. If Miss Stewart was nursing the three orphans and living with them at the home of their father, no complaint would be made. But when she allows them to sleep and eat at the home of a Negro—then a great crime is committed and she is arrested and taken to court. Leading white people of Arkansas are heading a movement for the holding of a conference, having as its object the checking of the migration wave; but all the conferences and opportunities to the Negro to remain in the South will be of no avail just so long as such incongruous laws are enforced making it a crime for a person to give shelter and comfort to motherless, homeless children. Such laws are a disgrace to humanitarian and Christianity, and those who make and enforce them are worse. As things now stand, a Negro is likely to find himself in jail for giving friendly aid on the street to a white woman, and in coming to the rescue of a white man in distress a Negro woman bares the risk of being put behind the bars for undue familiarity. MARCUS GARVEY STILL AT IT. MARCUS GARVEY STILL AT IT. Negroes of Columbus, Ohio, bitterly complain that Marcus Garvey while recently delivering a speech in that city, argued that Africa, not America, should be regarded as the real home of Negroes of this country, and also advanced some fantastic theories regarding race relations which were very much in accord with those advocated by the Ku Klux Klan. Columbus, although the capital of Ohio, is a Klan stronghold, and much to the chagrin of Negro citizens the views of the President General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association were given undue prominence by the daily press. We had hoped that Mr. Garvey's sojourn in the Tombs for several months had given him ample time and opportunity to engage in other reflection and that when he emerged from his prison cell to await the decision of the higher court pending his appeal, the public should had a THE NEW YORK AGE to day dreaming; but we have about reached the conclusion that he profits little from experience. While the back to Africa movement may have been the chief incentive to originally win hundreds of Negroes to Garvey, most of his adherents who a year or two ago were aroused to a high pitch of emotionalism on the subject have become skeptics. Thousands of dollars have been collected by the organization, there have been innumerable speeches made on setting up a Negro government in Africa, but the African program has been as big a failure as the Black Star Line. Not one American Negro who has ardently advocated the Garvey idea that this is a white man's country and black people should go to Africa has made a sincere effort to depart, from these shores, nor is he likely to do so. Marcus Garvey may find it advantageous for propaganda purposes to continue to agitate his back to Africa movement. Such talk evidently makes it possible to get plenty of free space in the daily papers, but at such a crucial time as this, when the Ku Klux Klan is doing everything to stir up racial and religious hatreds, he is playing into the hands of the enemy and doing Negroes in the United States incalculable injury. The declaration that this is a white man's country is a statement far from the truth. While enjoying his liberty awaiting the decision of a higher court as to whether he is to go to the Federal Prison at Leavenworth, Kansas, for misusing the mails to derraud, we sincerely hope Mr. Garvey will refrain from embarrassing Negro citizens throughout the country by preaching Ku Klux Klan sentiments. Twelve million native born Negroes of the United States are vitally interested in the welfare of the native African, but American Negroes can be of most service to those in the Dark Continent when in a position to help the natives develop and exploit their rich natural resources. For Marus Garvey to take thousands of American Negroes to Africa who are no pioneers in any sense of the word, and with little or no capital would only serve to make matters worse for all concerned. What the native African wants most of the American Negro is not so much his presence as his moral and financial support. then, during the same week, is a Filipino is tried in a New York Court on the charge of murdering nine girls and the police said a dance hall inside Drive and arrest Chinese and Japanese men white women who were discharged in court, in so to us that the other question in the United States is not wholly of the Negro's making.

Exclusive of barber shops and restaurants, Harlem Negroes directs most of their energies to conducting pool rooms, cabarets and other forms of business conducive to pleasure. Nine-tenths of all clothing, gents-furnishing, grocery, delicatessen, drug and stationery stores, meat markets and laundries are operated by white men. Even the Greeks have a monopoly on cleaning hats and shining shoes in a community of nearly 200,000 colored people. There should be no condemnation of energetic far-seeing white men for taking advantage of the golden opportunity for making money off a people known as habitual spenders. But can you picture a similar condition existing anywhere else in New York? In the Jewish section the Jews have complete control of all business, and in the Italian section the Italians are dormant in business. So are the Irish in many districts where they reside in large numbers. Much of the money spent in Harlem by Negroes is circulated elsewhere. Even white merchants and clerks catering to Negro trade are known to go to 125th street for lunch, their policy being to make money in Harlem but leave as little as possible with those who are enriching them. The opening of more stores by Negroes should insure a greater circulation of currency among members of the race thus keeping more money, in the community. Aside from the rent, usually paid to a landlord residing in another part of town, the Atlantic & Pacific, Butler, Progressive, Reeves, Davey and United Cigar Stores companies do very little to show Harlem Negroes appreciation for hearty support. Only white clerks are employed. The hiring of some colored clerks should be demanded. In Southern cities, also in the Middle West, Negroes are successfully engaged in business enterprises of all kinds, and, these concerns have made the operation of Negro banks possible. Harlem is far behind in this respect, although its colored population is in excess of any other in the country. Until Harlem has more business institutions run by Negroes much of the money spent in the community will flow into other channels, which will mean its loss and some other section's gain. POINTED PARAGRAPHS When, during the same week, is a Filipino is tried in the New York Courts on the charge of murdering a white girl and the police said a dance hall in Riverside Drive and arrest Chinese and Japanese men and white women who were discharged in court, occurs to us that the color question is the United States is not wholly of the Negro's making. Within the past week it is reported that several of the butchery jobs in Harlem owned by the butchery men have been guarded. *偶尔* they are the hand-washing on the work. WITH OUR GIRLS was convicted for murder in the first degree for the murder of Blesson Marrero, a white girl, the testimony given that the Filipino and white girl had been sweethearts for some time estranged the dead girl, another, who, in talking to newspaper reporters, said: "Well, I don't think he colored man should be allowed to go away with anything. Of course, all the things they say about my daughter are unfair. She was born and bred a lady, and this man isn't of our class or color." "The wages of sin is death," and it is obvious that no one—white or colored "can get away with anything." Mrs. Martin is old enough to know this. ```markdown ``` Says Dr. George Counts of Yale University: "Some people are inclined to say that Booker T. Washington was a great educator and that industrial education was what the Negro should have; but I think his principles are fundamentally sound for any race. I think our education would be fundamentally sound if we would take his philosophy. The thing we need in our white schools, especially our secondary schools, is the kind that will idealize our education so as to get a new attitude toward ordinary things. I think his principles would be all right for any race." The greatness and farsightness of Booker T. Washington are more patent and convincing as the years roll on. ```markdown ``` Fifty editors of the leading dailies of North and South Carolina, Tennessee Mississippi and Louisiana, have united to demand mutual helpfulness between the two races in the South, adequate educational facilities for the Negro, justice in the courts for all and the abatement of mobs. An agreement also has been entered into to publish more constructive news regarding the Negro in the South. The Age extends congratulations to Southern white editors who have come to the realization that in the interest of the whole South a new deal must be given the black man. We trust that in the new program the editors will include the policy of capitalizing the "N" in Negro; and would the printing of "Mr." and "Mrs." before the names of respectable men and women be asking too much? --- On Saturday, November 3, in broad daylight, a drunken Negro and a white taxi driver became involved in a controversy on 136th street, near Seventh avenue, and a large crowd gathered.

Black Ku Klux Editor of The New York Asc: It is now reported that some Negro in Ohio is trying to organize the blacks into a Ku Klux Klan, as "assistance" to the whites. That is, these blacks are to help the whites to "do it". Since they cannot prevent themselves from being jim crowed, tarred, and disfranchised, they will help to do it. This fellow is using the fool argument that the Ku Klux are "so strong" that the Negroes had better join them and get on their side. So is the devil strong. Why not join him? Certainly the distranchiser and the lyncher are strong. The friend told us he was a good teacher. I fondly remember a devoted train the other day: That there was a fellow in Chicago who made a great stump speech for the Republicans one night, and raked the Democrats fore and aft. But some body went to see him that very night, and carried with them thirty pieces of silver arguments, and convinced him of the power, financial at least, of the Democratic party. Next afternoon that fellow had a long article in the daily paper, singing the virtues of Thomas Jefferson and Woodrow Wilson. "How did this happen?" he was asked by some of his Republican followers: "Well," said he. "I use done foun' fount can't' beem 'em so we jos-well jime em!" Well, what place can the Black Kluxers serve in the Invisible Empire? Simple enough: the white Kluxers will need dishwasher and waiters and chauffeurs and also there must be door-keepers at the "klawers." The tar will have to be boiled and stirred right and poured up into convenient tins." And who could work in tar better than black Kluxers. The leaders of Klundum naturally have the opinion that Negroes are especially gifted at ben-roost-robbing—well, who, in the world would be better prepared to gather the feathers to go along with the tar, then a lot of expert chicken thieves? Of course the Invisible Empire will need some black subjects. And the Negro race" has a good many individuals whom it could well spare to the Klan. But most of all the Klan will need black spies. Some black men are going to fight the oppression of the Klan: they are going to fight for their right to vote, their right to the public school, their right to full citizenship. And the Imperial Wizard will find himself in great need of tools and minions in black, so that his imperial hobgobblins can "keep tab on" these fighting black men. If they let us know how many they can use, we have some names we will be pleased to admit. New York City. WM. PICKENS. as possible, so that I may learn more about this column.

Mrs. Blanche B. Beatty of Tampa, Florida, made impassioned plea for the Negro children of her state, urging that these problems had to be solved in the South.

Thomas amata, held secretary, said there classes of migrants. these types are within the group and may be cata- straight" and "really" mig- said the speaker. "These very unscientific but with a complication will convey the intended. The right migrant is meant the migrant comes directly from the plains or rural community in the southern state to a large industrial community or urban center of the North or Wset, who is wholly unacquainted with the complicated social economic life of the congested community in which he finds himself. The really migrant is meant a garter who also comes directly from the plains or rural section of some southern state, but who spends some time in his own state depending on the time upon the extent to which he can become absorbed in economic life and ultimately move into a cosmopolitan North or West. and class of migrant is repre- sented by a large per cent of the South- ern man who may be identified with the two classes of migrants above and who comes to industrial centers and ur- nities and becomes a very organist in an effort to cur- tial and economic advance- ment.

Which several thousand phylobionts emigrated from Atlanta, met the Neuros profession. This is true largely because of the feeling of relative insecurity of life and limb, in the average small town or rural district of the South. It has also stimulated by the activity of the K. K. masked mobs and night riders. The ball wrestle and other agricultural uncertainties have contributed largely to this migratory influence also. "When one realizes how limited the colored man or woman is in his educational, economic and social opportunities in the average rural districts or small towns he realizes that it is just as far comparatively from small towns in Georgia to Atlanta or Louisiana to New Orleans, or in Alabama to Birmingham, as it is from Atlanta, New Orleans or Birmingham to New York, Detroit, or Chicago, in terms of better educational facilities for Negro children; more protection, a squarer deal in the courts; a greater security of life and property and a larger outlook on life. "So that a social program for immigrants—if it is to represent a national movement—must be sufficiently comprehensive to provide for and give consideration to the larger cities throughout the nation because all of them have their quota of migrants." "A program adequately providing recreational opportunity for the migrant as well as other safeguards, health and well being, together with educational advantages and industrial and economic efficiency, would require more of what is being regarded as community organization than has been attempted in any large measure in any of our cities thus far. Social workers must develop community organizations in his city to the point where a majority of the people of fortunate circumstances will concern themselves more directly with the welfare of the underprivileged. This to a large extent will require changing of mental attitude of the more fortunate members of our society group, whether he is business, professional, religious leader or educator toward the social needs of the man farthest down, "Large industrial and manufacturing concerns and business enterprises, as well as private individuals who employ these migrants and profit by their tell, must be induced to recognize efforts on behalf of their social well being as an investments in industrial and economic efficiency. Where the employee cats and sleeps and spends his leisure hours must be of as much concern to the employing interest as where he works, and to the business man as where he spends his money. "While it is true that a large number of migrants to our Northern cities bring many problems—problems in housing, health, sanitation, and two often in vice and crime and immorality, it is also true that they bring hope, aspiration, and steadfastness of purpose. Let us not forget that regardless of the geographical situation of ones birthplace is a human and constitutional right to place his labor on the markets of the world where it will bring, the largest returns and a sible freedom and protection." Finest Dress Shop Owned By Race Women Operated By Mmes. Carrie and Grantland (Continued from First Page) Fool' and several individual Broadway stars Last April, with Mrs. Carrie Wallace as her partner, the business at their present location was opened, under the firm name of Carrie and Grantland. One of the first contracts of this new firm was the making of costumes for last summer's Ziegfeld Folies. This season they have made costumes for "Little Miss Bluebeard," in which Irene Bordini is starring, and "Peter Weston." Mrs. Wallace has also had an interesting career as a dressmaker. Starting with a small clientele in her apartment at 220 West 133rd street, her work became so well known that before long she was doing work for several Broadway and picture stars. One of her biggest jobs was the making of the wedding trouseau for a prominent Broadway star, who took pride in telling her friends that her clothes had been made by a Negro woman, the friend of her maid. Mrs. Wallace was born in London County, Vt., but came to New York at an early age. She has never received any special training in dressmaking or designing, but her natural aptitude for this kind of work soon made her services in big demand. The prevent firm of Carrie and Grantland companies from twelve to twenty girls. Belinda having a large theatrical trade they also make clothes for Mme. Debyia and others of the concert stage as well as many wealthy people of the city. A Pioneer Business Woman. Perhaps the first colored woman to open her own business in the shopping district was Mme. G. B. Reed, who has been in business in this section for sixteen years. Her first shop was on West 45th street near 6th avenue, where she was for nine years. Her present location is at 45 West 56th street where she has a large and well appointed establishment, employing from ten to fifteen girls. She specializes in gowns, but has recently opened a millinery department and has a trade composed mostly of wealthy people. Mrs. Sand is also a associate of Virginia, but came to New York in a girl. She is a graduate of the S. B. S. and McDowell Schools. She has trained extensively in Europe and work in special plant corps while in Paris a number of years ago. She lives at 501 Fifth Avenue. We learn from a certain porter, who is prominently known in this district in movements for the elevation and settlement of the Pullman porter, that the next move of importance contemplated by them will be to put forth an effort to induce the company to open to its colored employees (especially parture) certain positions in its terminal yards, such as Mott Haven, New York City, and Sumyrelle, Long Island City, which are at present being filled exclusively by white employees. This is a commendable as well as ambitious idea; one that should be approved by every porter in the service. There are a number of positions in these yards which could be efficiently and credibly filled by men who are now working as porters, and we can see no good reason why men who have weared of read service and are fully qualified should not be allowed to bid for them. There are porters who have been in the service for a number of years and having a family to support who would keenly appreciate the opportunity of securing one of these positions. Such an act on part of the company would be an added attraction to the service, because giving such positions to colored employees would be looked upon as a promotion. Then, too, the experience that the intelligent porter receives in every department of operation of the Pullman car would not only enable him to become efficient in the supervision of Pullman equipment, but his knowledge of road conditions would be of invaluable aid to the district office. Of course, the question might be asked, "Why should the company substitute its white employees with colored employees, when the whites, so far, have given perfect satisfaction." To this question, we might answer, "Yes, but there are many other positions and offices open to white employees, while none of which are open to its colored employees." In giving these positions in its terminal yards, which are relatively speaking, very small, to its colored employees, the company would be doing nothing more than justice to a group which has served loyalty and efficiency. We hope the sponsor of that idea will not allow it to become a mere question of the lips. Remember, nothing fought for, nothing gained! On reading of the death of Dr. Charles P. Steinemetz, the electrical wizard, we experienced a feeling of sincerity regret. Not that he was, in any sense, a special friend or benefactor of ours, but because we admire the quality of simplicity in the man, which quality we observed while serving him on countless occasions on the railroad. For a number of summers we ran a luncheon parlor car between New York and the Thousand Islands. Among the passengers whom we always relied upon catching sometime during the season was Dr. Steinemetz, who spent his vacation at a place called Henderson Harbor. Whenever he came aboard our car, we knew the kind of service he wanted—services of a very simple nature. After they were attested to, he usually retired to the smoking compartment of the car, and there he would spend the greater part of his time smoking and reading. He was very reticent toward other passengers; never taking part in their smoking room conversations which nine out of ten passengers do and think it the proper thing to do. He kept exclusively to himself. Heretofore we attributed his aloofness to sensitiveness, due to his deformity, but since his death, in reading comments of his life, we guess it was just one of his peculiarities. But that had nothing to do with his heart, which was, as big, we think, as God makes 'em. One could appreciate the bigness of his heart when he travelled with his adopted children; then you forget the genius, the recluse, the deformity, and you saw a little man who seemed to be thankful for the joy of living. It was a pleasure to serve him and his family, for not only was he liberal but he was appreciative as well. This is the impression this master of electricity made upon a Pullman porter.

First, I believe, the staple or intentional weakness of Federal or State officials intrusted with the enforcement of the prohibition law in the beginning. When the law was placed on the books I believe the country generally was ready to accept it, but from that day to this there has been the most disfurious lack of courage, sincerity, honesty or sense ever applied to enforce any law. Misery paid agents, politically selected, with apparently no effort to build up morale in the forces, man in high places using influence to secure reinforcement here, there and everywhere, the insecurity of persons so placed in official life as to be an example for good so good, all have appeared either disobedience or worse.

The prohibition law ran counter to two very human traits in the American people, hospitality and a sometimes confused instinct of personal liberty. I say hospitality, or the instinct of hospitality, hindered law obedience.

Sees Lincoln Defeat West Virginia Inst Charleston, W. Va.—Before a crowd of approximately 5,000 people the Lincoln Lions scored a 7-0 victory over the West Virginia Collegiate Institute eleven here on Saturday, October 27. The game was the most thrilling of the season and was witnessed by many prominent persons, including Governor Morgan and his secretary, Jesse V. Sullivan, who sat on the Institute side of the field and rooted hard for the West Virginia team. The Lincoln touchdown came early in the second quarter as a result of two long runs, both by Quarterback Byrd. Catching the ball on a punt, he raced almost 40 yards, being down on the 10 yard mark. From this point he skipped left and for a touchdown after two line plays had failed. During the last two periods, Institute fought a grim and determined uphill fight and the superb running Captain Cardwell, Drewery and Eaves and the accurate forward passing of Gough brought them within scoring distance of the Lincoln goal on several occasions, but whenever the Lion's territory was in danger they put up a stunch defense and successfully repulsed all attempts of their components to score. The work of Byrd and Laporte for Lincoln was the feature of the game. Both are fast and well able to pick holes with uncanny accuracy. Supported as they were by a heavy and smoothworking line, they had the major share in the victory. The work of Cardwell and Eaves for Institute was also good.

Hampton Defeats Lincoln Lions In Hard Fought Game Baltimore, Md.-In a gruelling contest Hampton emerged the victor over the Lincoln Lions in one of the most stubbornly contested gridiron battles ever played between these two schools. The teams were about evenly matched in most respects, and except for penalties inflicted, neither side would have scored a touch down. In the early part of the game Lincoln carried the ball to Hampton's 25-yard line where Crudup kicked a goal for placement. There was 6 other scoring until near the end of the game. Lincoln received three penalties amounting to 35 yards, which placed the ball on her 1-yard line, from which Hampton made a touch down, making the score 7-3. It was a rather unfortunate ending for such a stubbornly and brilliantly played game, the Jesson learned from this game will be of material benefit to all teams in the future. Lincoln made 26 first downs and Hampton & Capt.

She was amazed when there came back through the ether to the concert room immediate requests for an encore. While the majority, with their telephone receiving sets, merely listened, the request for encore came from many amateurs who were equipped with sending sets.

A broadcasting station is generally divided into two or more rooms. The studio, with its piano, phonograph and other equipment for the artists, resembles the music room to be found in a home, except that the ceiling and walls are generally covered with some cloth or material which will eliminate any reverberating sounds or echoes. One more small "pick up" instruments known as micrometers, mounted on standards, are usually the only pieces of electrical apparatus to be found in this room. Wires from these convey the voice or music into another room, which in many cases is at quite a distance from the studio. The latter resembles a laboratory with its various pieces of electrical apparatus, transmitting vacuum tubes, panel boards, storage batteries, etc. Here the music or speech is put through a number of stops of amplification by means of smaller vacuum tubes which increases the volume of the soundwaves thousands of times. The amplified speech currents then enter another bank of vacuum tubes, known as modulators or molders of the electric waves sent through the ether. Vacuum tubes, made in the same manner and containing the same number of elements as the small tubes used for receiving, but much larger and therefore capable of handling more power, usually are used for radio broadcasting.

To obtain this, a low voltage alternating current, such as used for lighting purposes in the home, is boasted to a high voltage by means of a motor-generator. This voltage is then applied to a number of vacuum tubes. The electrical power supplied to these tubes causes electrical oscillations, in the aerial wire system known as the antenna, and the antenna in turn radiates electrical waves which are molded to the form of the inflexions of the voice or of music, by other tubes termed modulators. The power used at a broadcasting station is measured by the energy delivered to the antenna system, rather than the energy taken from the power lines. For this reason the rated power of a broadcasting station seems rather low to the uninitiated. The average range of the several high power broadcasting stations now in existence is 100 to 500 miles, although the stations maintained by the Westinghouse Electric and Manufacturing Co., the General Electric Co., and the Radio Corporation of America have been heard over several thousand miles. In one instance an operator on board a ship more than a thousand miles at sea received a complete concert from a broadcasting station near New York with great enough intensity to pass it over the ship's telephone lines to 25 different state rooms at the same time. As previously explained, the range of a receiving station depends upon a number of variable factors and the distances pointed out here have been covered by receiving stations employing sensitive apparatus, involving several stages of vacuum tube amplification. These facts should be considered in purchasing radio receivers. QUESTIONS and ANSWERS Mrs. O. S. Hunter, your request for a Radio set was received. Your Broadcasting station in Lexington, W. Q. A.

John Doc THE STAGE AND ATHLETICS In The Realm of Music By Lucien H. White John Payne and Lawrence Brown In London Recital, Of All Negro Compositions John Payne and Lawrence Brown In London Recital, Of All Negro Compositions The Honorable Lady Mary Cook of Doughty House, Richmond, Surrey, England, writes me under date of October 22, an interesting letter concerning the recent appearance at Wigmore Hall, London, of John Payne, formerly a member of the Southern Syncopated Orchestra, supported by Lawrence B. Brown, pianist, the young man who went to England originally as the accompanist for Roland W. Hayes. Mr. Payne presented a program made up entirely of Negro music, and by all accounts, the London audience showed utmost appreciation of the unusual musical offering. Of course, there have been other Negro American singers in London who gave Negro music as a part of their programs, but it seems that Mr. Payne was a pioneer to the extent that he is the first to have sung a program on which appeared only examples of music which had a Negro origin. Negro spirituals formed the bulk of the offering, twelve of the sixteen programed numbers being of this class. Two folk songs, "Water boy," arranged by Avery Robinson, and, "Scandalize' my name," arranged by Harry T. Burleigh from a theme originating in Calhoun, Lowndes county. Ala., were given, and J. Rosamond Johnson and Will Marion Cook of the modern school were represented by dialect songs, "Since you went away" and "Exhortation; a Negro Sermon," respectively. Lady Cook, in her letter, writes as follows: "I wish to tell you of a concert given by Mr. John Payne at Wigmore Hall on October 13th. He was assisted by Mr. Lawrence Brown, who accompanied him on the piano and also (occasionally) vocally. It was a great success in every way. The audience was a large one and very enthusiastic, and included many distinguished people. The program will show you that Mr. Payne on this, his first appearance as a Song Recitalist on the concert stage, elected to give an entire program of Negro Spirituals and Negro Folk and Dialect Songs. His judgment in this respect was entirely justified by the great appreciation shown by his hearers throughout the whole of the proceedings, and the press criticisms which I am sending to you show the same appreciation. "Mr. Lawrence Brown's arrangements of certain of the Spirituals met with the praise they deserved and Mr. John Payne's arrangement of "It's me. O Lord," obtained an encore. Of course, Mr. Harry Burleigh's songs and arrangements are well known and loved in London." The reviewer of inusic events on the London "Morning Post" said that "Mr. John Payne's singing made everything come right. His pronunciation was natural and not aggressive, his expression had the ring of sincerity, and was not overdone, he used the arts of a singer without sophistication, and a gracious personality-came through all his singing. 'The Spirituals' and the like appealed more intimately under these conditions—with a right and proper singer and no European art music to make conflict with them—than they do as interpolations in an ordinary concert program." In this connection, the same reviewer found fault with "certain sentimental and over civilized harmonies" which were heard in piano accompaniments, a characteristic which The Age writer has previously dwelt upon at some length as detracting from the strength and beauty of the primitive melodies. The critic on the London "Daily Telegraph dwells more at length on this phase of the matter. He says: "It may be accepted as a general principle that no one can sing Negro songs and Spirituals so well as a Negro. The moment sophistication creeps in they begin to lose that peculiar appeal they have for our European ears. Within the last two or three years a number of English singers, attracted by their intrinsic beauty and no doubt considerably influenced by the singing of Mr. Roland Hayes, have dared to 'interpret' them at public recitals, and have met with much applause for so doing. But Mr. Hayes, artist that he is, stands, as it were, halfway between the culture of Europe—he is equally at home with Mozart and Reynaldo Hahn—and the traditional music of his own people, and, perhaps unconsciously, sophistication has crept into his singing of these old songs. "The artlessness of John Payne, who, with Lawrence Brown as his accompanist, gave a recital of Negro music at Wigmore Hall on Saturday evening, calls for no such criticism. Mr. Payne is a baritone. There is gentleness in his singing at times, and there is delicacy; but there is no finesse. Finesse is not required. Great eloquence he has, as in the familiar 'Go down, Moses,' and 'Weepin' Mary,' but it is the eloquence of simple rather than studied art." The two songs just mentioned, with "By-an-by" and "I want to be ready," all arrangements by H. T. Burleigh, composed the first group. The second group, "Steal away," "I know de Lord's laid His hands on me," "Sometimes I feel like a motherless child," and "Ev'ry time I feel de spirit," were Lawrence Brown's arrangements. The third group was made up of the four folk and dialect songs referred to above. The fourth and last group was made up of Spirituals, "My Lord, what a mornin'!" "It's me, O Lord," "Swing low, sweet chaript" and "Simmer, please doan let dis harves' pass," the first and last arranged by Burleigh, the second by Mr. Payne and the third by Mr. Brown. MUSIC NOTES My good friend, Mme M. Loucette Chastain, coloratura soprino, of Orange N. J., whose debut at Aeolian Hall at October 25 was told of in this column. Last week, has taken seeming offense at my well-meant suggestion that prior to her next formal recital, she secure the services of a language expert and song coach for reasons which were set forth in the review. In making the suggestion, no reflection was cast upon her teacher, Mr. Lamb, whose ability I know and appreciate. Singers who have advanced much further than Mrs. Chastain have benefitted by such specific intensive training as I suggested, apart from that received from their voice teachers, and there are teachers of experienced ability and standing who see no reflection upon their work through one of their pupils receiving special instructions from a coach. Mrs. Chanese is entitled to the right to refuse suggestions if she does not find merit in them, and any suggestions she are entitled to on the compensation she cels they may meet. As she asks that her letter be published, stating that she expects to see it in the next issue, it follows: "Please accept my sincerest thanks and gratitude for the criticism. I have always desired and worked to become an artist. When you spoke of me as such, it indeed made me proud. But, Mr. White, I must take exception to your recommendation of securing a coach and language expert for future progress. In the first part of your article, you said that to each song was given a color and shading that brought the audience to an unusual degree of sympathetic understanding with the composer's meaning." Since studying for about three years I have not only had vocal instruction, but coaching, having as many as two or three hours a day just on program. It also places my teacher to my mind, in an extremely embarrassing position, to even think of additional help, much less publishing such. Please remember, Mr. White, that anything I failed to do at my vocal, whether defect in tonal point, vocal interpretation or pronunciation of language, was not due to lack of training, but entirely due to myself. I alone was so alone. FOOTBALL HAMPTON VS. HOWARD Saturday, November 17 ARMSTRONG FIELD, HAMPTON INSTITUTE Game Called at 2 P.M.

Commonwealth Five Beats Perth Amboy In Second Meeting Making its best showing this season, the Commonwealth Big Five scored a 30-19 victory over the Perth Amboy team, the champions of New Jersey, at Commonwealth Casino on Sunday night, November 4. The previous night in Perth Amboy the New Jerseyites defeated the local team in a hard fought game, and this seemed to have used up all of the reserve power of Perth Amboy. In the game on Sunday night Commonwealth took the lead from the beginning and kept it throughout the game. At the end of the first half the score was 15-13. An improvement was noted in the teamwork of the Commonwealth team and the shooting of Jenkins and Sessoms was the feature of the game. The lineup: Perth Amboy Pos. Commonwealth Regan L.F.

Another activity of the Association, rendered entirely without cost, is the system of room registration, by which insured homes are recommended, to room living girls, special regard being had to the prevention of prophilecting at expense of the girls seeking safe and comfortable abiding places. One of the most attractive features in the VW organization is the swimming pool operated under supervision of the Physical Department. This supports a recreational need of magnitude, and it is important to be a main health force. The most care is exercised to maintain proper sanitary conditions. The pool has recently been repainted, and the water is used for the presence of bacteria at weekly intervals by a bacteriological Male University laboratory. This test shows bacteria present in the pool.

Budget Campaign Is on The matter of expense of operating the Colleged Women's Branch is assuming latest proportion just at this time, in the matter of the 1924 budget is before the Central Committee. In addition to the necessary new equipment and equipment because of growth expansion and determination from constant use, an additional need is created in case of the West 1928 street building because of the social situation. The concentration of ethnic racial group within a limited area and the consequent congestion in housing facilities creates an unusual de COLORED WOMEN'S BR 179 West 137t COLORED WOMEN'S BRANCH Y. W. C. A. 179 West 137th Street The Cafeteria, Open to the Public. upon such an institution as the which is to be used for Y. W. C. A. It is pointed out by those familiar with conditions that a more intensive program is needed to provide for the needs of the colored girl in the Harlem community than is necessary in other sections of the city because of this neighborhood congestion, and this increase appreciably the expense of operation. The budget for 1924 has been placed at $10,000, and of this amount, the estimated income is placed at approximately $75,000. The Y. W. C. A. officials are consequently conducting a campaign to raise the estimated difference $55,000. And to that end, the community is being called upon for tan- tile financial assistance. The campaign is being waged, covering the period from November 1 to December 1, and the women have been invited into three teams: the Calendar Chieled by Mrs. M. L. Reed; the Committee of Management led by Mrs. Emma Ransom, and the Business and Professional Women's Team. These trainee and faithful women are asking the elements of Harlem's community, professional, religious, social, educational and recreational interests to commit to their assistance in raising the women needed to complete the 1924 budget. While this is the largest sum for current expenses which has been asked for the cause is meritorious and it is hoped the appeal will be heeded. The "Y building is really a community center of broad scope, at the service of the entire people with scarcely any limitations. This constant use requires the environment of a large force of caretakers who are busy throughout twenty-four hours seeing to it that the building kept in proper condition. It also must necessary the renovation of the building with a refurbishing and refitting of the lobby, the hub of the building's activities. To Erect 250-Ream Dormitory A future development of the Association's work will be the erection of a dormitory for girls and women. A few work plans announced was made that the present dormitory building at 200 Wash. 12th street, the Emmann S. Rumpf Residence for Girls, had been made. Importantly following came further information to the effect that three lots in 20th street, contiguous to the preschool, had been acquired by the City Board as a site for the new dormitory. The transaction for the lots was settled by Watt Terry of the Watt Terry Holding Co., Inc., 200 Wash. 140th street. A talk with Mrs. Saunders, the secretary, brought out the information that intensive plans for this building embarked on a more extended proposition than is usual in the case. It is planned to erect a 200-room building on the lots, covering an area of 75 by 100 feet, with a height of five stories at an estimated cost of $80,000. Usually the "V" building policy would be to limit a dormitory building to 125 rooms with the purpose of erecting other buildings in other sections, thus covering a wider territory than if the funds were invested in one large building in a particular community. But the Haitian population problem creates a situation different from that existing in any other nation, and facilitates a substantial reason for discontent from the accepted policy. The present policy is. Mr. V. R. SCOTT Treasurer, Committee of Management 200 will be retained until January 1, 1924, under terms of sale, and after that date a temporary lease will be consummated to take care of, the dormitory needs of the Association. The present building was secured by the War Council of the City Board as a temporary arrangement; and it has never been specially adapted for dormitory purposes. Alterations for that purpose were too expensive, and for that reason the property was put on the market. Costing $45,000, of which all but $5,000 had been paid, the property was sold for $72,000. This leaves approximately $60,000 net BRANCH Y. W. C. A. 137th Street which is to be used for the new dormitories. The lots recently, purchased cost $40,000, having something more than $40,000 net a nucleus for the dormitory building fund. Rooms to Vary in Cost In the new building, it is planned, stated Mrs. Saunders, that provision will be made for the various classes of wage earners, both large and small. Rooms that can be rented at a figure within the compass of the small wage earner are a vital necessity that will be met, and at the same time there will be provided accommodations for the woman whose earnings are sufficiently large to enable her to pay for desired luxuries. In this connection, it is calculated that the profit accruing from the higher priced suites will make it possible to lower rentals on cheaper rooms to the decided advantage of the small wage-earning girl. The emphasis thus placed on a needed difference in housing conditions for the various classes of wage earners serves to accentuate the necessity for a building in this community much larger than is usually erected under the City Board's general policy. At the same time, the erection of a 250-room hotel building for "Y" dormitory purposes on the West 137th street site will present a pretty architectural-problem, due to the fact that the street width brings into effect certain building restrictions which will make it difficult task to encompass within the permitted height of five stories, the necessary administration quarters and at the same time, provide 250 separate bed rooms for clients. Mrs. Saunders is assisted by a corps of departmental secretaries made up of young women of the most efficient and competent type. Each has had special training for her particular duties, and each one brings to her tasks a consecration and devotion and loyalty which is inspiring. Miss Louise B. Lawrence of Brooklyn, formerly of Charleston, S. C., is the Office Secretary, in charge of Mrs. Saunders's office.

He used as his text "Ho, everyone that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money come ye, buy and eat, yea come, buy wine and milk without money and without price."—Isaiah 55:1. "This invitation is addressed to thirsty ones. They express mankind's strongest desire. Hung r and thirst are the eldest of the passions." Many have never felt the pang. It is a greater cravings than Hunger. They tell us that the "hungry will lie down and die while the thirsty go mad." But, the hunger and thirst of the human heart are more serious than the cravings of the body. Man thirsts after. God in spite of all his propensities. When a soul is awakened by the spirit its feels the need of God." At the close of the sermon fifteen persons were received into the church. The Rt. Rev. J. C.

St. James Presbyterian. The congregation at St. James Presbyterian Church, 59-61 West 137th street, near Lenox avenue, was "large and responsive. The theme of the morning sermon was "jealousy and its logical results." The text was from Exodus 20:5, "I the Lord thy God, I fealous God." Drl Hyder discussed jealously as it manifests itself in human relationships; creating suspicion, apprehension and fear, which leads to uneasiness and all kinds of mental and moral confusion. God, the speaker said, was jealous when his people bestowed their affection, time and attention on other objects than those which led them to a better understanding of their allegiance to Him, who loved them with everlasting love. The various chairmen of all the fall fair committees were present and en- rolled large numbers of the members for the work of the fair which, opened Monday night with a grand concert by the choir, assisted by Miss Zenade Anderson and Miss Julia Lee.

And the lapd rested from war." Josua's 123. Pastor Holon said: "This text may be made clear, and lessons than symbolistic a spiritual victory and state. The Old Testament abounds with symbolic truth, both as to characters and their achievements. Josua's immedible predecessor, Noses, is one of the outstanding characters that represent this idea. Though he was the leader of Israel and the distinguished lawgiver, both factors in his life have spiritual significance. The Decangue, while a legal document, forms a basis for directing the religious, social, and economic life of the people; a deep thought consideration of faith and of the whole of the Teal Compendiments. It reveals a spiritual content that, found Lord Jesus the Kinnamel. Directly at the close of the morning service, Supt.

TELEPHONE: SPRING LAND One of the outstanding candidates for nomination to Walter Camp's mythical All-American football team this season is Charles West of Washington and Jefferson University. West played at the Polo Grounds, New York, on Saturday and despite the fact that the entire Lafayette team played with him, he was largely responsible for the only touchdown his team made. He made the biggest gains carrying the ball; he made a sensational tackle, when a Lafayette halfback had gotten by the rest of his team, and prevented a touchdown; he backed up the field and did the most of the kicking. Because of lack of familiarity with a new playing system introduced by a new coach, the Washington and Jefferson team has not shown up so brilliantly this season as they did last, nevertheless. West is one of the best halfbacks of the season. He is a native of Washington, Pa., and among the crowd of nearly a thousand students and residents of Washington present at the Polo Grounds, there were about a hundred colored people who made the trip to see West play. Several hundred colored Harlemites were also among the crowd of 25,000 who witnessed the game. The score was 6-6. Nearly twenty years ago Washington and Jefferson developed another colored athlete, who remains till today one of the outstanding athletes of his race. He is Juda Gantz of the Lincoln Giants baseball team. During the 1905-7 football seasons Gantz was full-back on the W. and J. varsity eleven and the two following years, years he was assistant coach of the team. After leaving school he turned professional and played with professional football teams through Pennsylvania and New York State. In 1910 he was with the Oakdale eleven of Buffalo, the professional champions. In his school days he was also a star pitcher and has played baseball with the most prominent colored teams of the country, first as a pitcher and later after breaking his arm, as an outfielder. He has been with the Matonza Club of Havana, Cuba, the Cuban Giants, the American Giants, the Cleveland Giants, the Nebraska Indians, the Brooklyn Royal Giants and the Lincoln Giants. Early this year he injured his ankle sliding to second and was out of the game most of the season, which was largely responsible for the poor showing his team made. Medical attention for his injured leg was paid for by Manager Keenan of the Lincoln and his salary went on just the same. His leg is now about well and he will be seen with the Lincoln Giants again next season. During the World War Gantz went overseas with the 92nd Division. He was later transferred to the Intelligence Department, and later to the First Army: Gas School and was gas instructor for the colored men of the Pioneer Infantry. Last week he received a telegram from his old school, W. & J., requesting him to assist the new coach in handling the team in the game on Saturday. He got back into the Redland Black uniform and again gave able assistance to his alma mater. OLD DOMINION LINE NEW YORK TO NORFOLK, VA.
