For the first time in history, the United States battle fleet was commanded from an aerial flagship when Admiral Samuel S. Rohison flew his four-armed admiral's flag from a navy seaplane.

Office Building Going Up in Harlem Even Though Armed With Union Cards—Swedes Dominate Jobs and Are Most Prejudiced. Evidence that the old discriminations, which existed in New York against the Negro mechanic before the World War, are being revived was brought to the attention of The Age during the past week. Honor Roll of Pupils at P. S. 119 Who Attained High Scholarship Marks in Classes The Public School report cards, which were given out during the first week of November, show high averages in scholarship at P. S. 119 Manhattan. During the war when mechanics in the building trades were so badly needed, Negroes in large numbers were for the first time admitted into the labor unions of the North, and for a time there was no discrimination against their being employed on jobs with white mechanics. Since the housing shortage has become less acute and the emergency of the war has passed, the unions are neglecting their colored brothers and permitting foremen and superintendents to refuse to employ, them, wherever white men can be obtained, and most times when they are employed they are the first to be fired, although they are the equal and in some cases better workmen Dr. Moton Declares South Is Now Awake To Rights of Negro Is Determined to Wipe Out Mob Rill and Eater Negro Shall Be Given Rights. Economic conditions, the need of better housing, "Jim Crowism" and the Ku Klux Klan were blamed for the migration North of 500,000 Negroes in the last year by Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, Tuskegee, Ala. He spoke Tuesday night before the Quill Club, at a dinner given at the Yale Club, Vanberbilt avenue and 44th street. The speaker said the South was awake to the seriousness of the migration and that business men in all of the Southern States had awakened to the importance of a square deal for the Negro. "The South, as represented by the best sentiment expressed in the Southern press, is determined to wipe out mob ruffs and the disgraceful practice in certain sections and among certain groups of lynching," said Dr. Moton, "and is eager that the Negro shall be given his rights and privileges as an American citizen in proportion to the measure of his merit." Dr. Moton said the migration had been in some degree beneficial to the Negroes who had come North and to those who remained in the South. He explained that it would mean greater diversification of agriculture, the breaking up of large plantations and increased respect for labor of the lands on the part of whites as well as Negroes.

In this section, at 147th street and Seventh avenue, the Interborough Rapid Transit Company is building a six-story office building and shops covering the entire block to Lenox avenue. This job is being handled by the Sieber Contracting Company, and as it will last almost a year, a number of local colored carpenters, cement workers and brick-layers applied for work. In almost every case these men were told that no more men were needed, but white men who came after them were taken on. Bertram Taylor, a union carpenter with twelve years' experience, who lives at 2423 Seventh avenue, applied for work on the L. R. T. job. At first he was told no more carpenters were needed, but when he had secured a letter from a white contractor for whom he had worked and went back, he was taken on, only to be laid off without cause three days later. Mr. Taylor stated to a representative of The Age that this company made no effort to conceal the theft, and did not care to employ Negro mechanics. Swedes Most Prejudice. Another colored union man, who had been a carpenter and a foreman for 14 years, also secured work here, but after working one day was laid off because the Swedes who dominate the job, did not care to work with him. It has been stated by a number of colored mechanics that the Swedish carpenters, who outnumber those of any other race in this section, are by far the most prejudiced in their attitude toward the skilled Negro mechanic. Although their union affiliations compel many of the superintendents to employ colored mechanics, it is alleged that the influence of the Swedes soon succeed in ousting them (Continued on Fifth Page) Italian Stabs Negro To Death Over Girl Barney Muscarello, twenty-one of 1704 St. Marks avenue, Brooklyn, was arrested Tuesday night on a charge of having stabbed to death James Cobbs, forty, colored, of 73, Bartlett street, Brooklyn, at Barrett street and Pitkin avenue, Brooklyn. The murder was witnessed by hundreds of persons returning home from work and many women shoppers. Muscarello was charged six blocks by detectives before he was caught.

His first appearance was in Sanders Hall, Cambridge, on Thursday night, November 15, and on Friday night, the 16th, he sang in Symphony Hall, Boston. The Evening Transcript said that Hayes's singing overshadowed the playing of the orchestra; that he was recalled six times in Cambridge and almost as many times in Boston; that Hayes is a singer with a mind and imagination as well as a voice; that he protell himself the musician, the artist, whose means and medium is song. Five Harlem Men Caught Holding Up A Jewish Druggist Five Harlem Men Caught Holding Up A Jewish Druggist Detective Emil Winterhalter of the 38th Precinct Station and his cousin, Policeman Charles Winterhalter of the Morrisania Station, were driving around Harlem in the latter's car on Saturday afternoon, November 17, when they saw five colored men in a taxicab who appeared to be suspicious characters. The policemen followed the taxicab through 135th street. When the taxicab reached 136th street and Eighth avenue the men jumped out and held up Abraham Stein, a druggist of 2452 Seventh avenue. They had just relieved him of $250 in cash when the detectives drove up. All of the men were arrested and taken to the West 135th street station. The men gave their names as Walter Blackstone of 164 West 133rd street; Joseph Mitchell of 43 West 133rd street; Frederick Garner of 131 West 130th street and Eugene Francia of 232 West 41st street. They were all armed and are being held on two charges, robbery, and carrying concealed weapons. At the police station they were identified, the detectives allege, by other victims who had been robbed in this vicinity.

"Bar-room Lizzie." The store was entered through the rear and it is the third attempt at robbery made in this immediate vicinity during the past few weeks, the last being attempted at the Duncan Brothers Funeral Parlor at 250 Seventh avenue. Mr. Brown says that no amount of money can induce him to sell his dog now. Davis, Realtor, Refunded Miss Hooks' $300, But The Judge Held Him For Trial Agent Accused of Illegally Withholding Money Paid In By Clients, Must Face Court Hearing, Says Judge McAndrews, Who Refused Plea for Dismissal. Although Jefferson A. Davis, real estate agent, of 274 West 135th street returned $300 he had collected from Miss Maria Hooks of 225 West 135th street, Judge McAndrews in the Heights Court on Friday morning, November 16, refused consent to the dismissing of the charge of obtaining money under false pretenses which had been made by Miss Hooks, on which charge-Davis had been arrested and released on $2,000 bail.

Fight to Kid Norfolk Big Rent Raise Is Put On Tenants Of St. Philip Property Business Rents in 135th St. Block Are Boosted by Church by Nearly 100 Per Cent. Business and professional men renting stores and offices in the 135th street block, between Lexox and Seventh avenues, in the properties owned by St. Philip's P. E. Church, are up in arms against their landlord as the result of notices received during the last days of October, notifying them of a boost in rent totalling nearly 100 per cent. Tenants occupying single front stores, paying $40 per month, will have to stand a raise of $25, paying $65, after December 1. Double front stores, renting at $50, will cost tenants $80, an increase of $30. All of the stores are affected except in a few cases where tenants have leases. A committee of tenants, headed by Attorney Richard L. Baltimore, of 135 West-135th street, has sent a letter to the vestry of St. Philip's Church asking for a hearing on the rent matter, but there was no immediate response to the request. Nearly all the tenants signed the petition, the only exceptions being Davis, Realtor, Miss Hooks' $ Judge Held Agent Accused of Illegally By Clients, Must Face McAndrews, Who Refuse Although Jefferson A.

Davis represented to Miss Hooks that she could purchase certain property at Pepperhan, near Yonkers, and she paid him $300 on account, but it developed that Davis had no authority to sell the property in question and could not make delivery to Miss Hooks. The young woman made several efforts to secure the return of her money, but without avail. Finally she secured a warrant and had the man arrested. Paid Back Total of $610. Two other parties who had paid money to Davis also made complaints that their money was being unlawfully withheld. One had paid the agent $270 and the Battling Siki, the Senegalese Bat 15-Rd. Figh Kid Norfolk of New, York was re returned the victor over Battling Siki of France in a fifteen round bout at Madison Square Garden on November 20 in one of the best fights that has been staged in New York all season. A capacity crowd of 12,000 was present and the contest drew $60,000. Though Siki was outboxed all the way by the more experienced Kid Norfolk, who was in superb condition, the French fighter proved fast and resourceful with a left hand that made him dangerous at all times. Siki entered the ring smiling in his most amiable manner and received a big ovation from the fans. He was quickly followed by Kid Norfolk, who also received a big hand. After the introductions, the announcement of the weights, Norfolk 174 pounds and Siki 172, the fight, was on. Siki took the offensive from the start, opening with a two head attack at the Kid's body. For the first two rounds Norfolk was contented with jabbing his opponent and testing him out occasionally. Siki shifted his tactics and began insightful, which he soon re-greted, for near the end of the third round Norfolk opened a big cut over his opponent's left eye while they war mating in close.

Themselves—Agents Who Are Unable to Discover Method of Selling Booze in Connie's Inn Are Invited to Age Office. Prohibition enforcement officers who are sent into the Harlem section to discover violations of the law find it easy enough to secure evidence of the sale of hootch, but they find it difficult to take any effective action, it is alleged, because the bootlegging situation is said to be controlled so absolutely by Loui Immerman, the Bootlegging King. other $40. Through his lawyer, Davis finally returned all of this money, totaling $610, to the complainants, through Assistant District Attorney James Law, the payment being made early Friday morning, before Court opened, and he hoped in this way to escape further penalty. When court convened the request was made to have the charge dismissed, Prosecutor Law agreeing. But Judge McAndrews refused to permit that action, stating that Davis must stand trial. He then set Friday, November 23, for the trial and warned the attorneys, concerned to be ready for trial at that time. The Frenchattler, Losesht to Kid Norfolk of the bout and kept him on the defensive. About the seventh round Siki again opened with a burst of speed and shook Norfolk with several beats and rights to the body. A few jabs in his injured eye soon put him on the defensive again: After the tenth round Siki began to tire and showed the effects of the beating he had received, but in the fourteenth and fifteenth rounds he showed the traditional French courage by coming back and mixing it with the American and giving blow for blow but Norfolk had piled up such a lead in points that everyone knew he had won. When the decision was announced Siki was cheered more than Kid Norfolk as the Frenchman had won a host of friends for his genial good humor and sportsmanship. While he was defended by a better boxer, Siki will probably make it uncomfortable for many of the light heavyweights in this vicinity and probably will be a popular favorite in New York this winter.

They rushed by raiding one of Louis's places and grabbing the bartender who sold them a bottle of hootch. But the officers were in trencepted by Loul as they were sent to the station house, and after a fight but apparently "strong" talk the arrested man was taken around the commissary released, and Loul is reported to have told the officers not to interfere with any of the places on his list. "Framed Up" a Victim. Then because the man had to make some kind of a showing on the proposition, they were led to a private apartment where a colored man was known to have a small still. Their guide asked for a half pint of hooch, but the man said his supply was exhausted and he had none. The agents then investigated the still, but it was filled only with pure clean water after being washed out following the finishing up of a last batch of mash. However, the men had supplied themselves with a bottle of hooch before coming in, so the poor man was arrested and the "planted" half pint was produced as evidence against him. Before being arraigned, it is alleged, the officers wanted to settle the matter with the man on payment of a required sum, but the man had no money. So he was taken before United States Commissioner Hitchcock and held in $1,000 bonds. Later, when his story was told, Commissioner Hitchcock dismissed the charge against the man. Said To Have Gotten $1,000. Another report is to the effect that these same officers heard that a Seventh avenue lunch room man was augmenting his business income by selling bootch on the side. They visited him and succeeded, it is said, in making a purchase. Then they flashed their badges, showing them to be revenue agents. Before the transaction was completed, it is alleged that the men had collected a cool thousand dollars from the frightened lunch room man. Wise ones are saying that it would have been cheaper for the man to have submitted to arrest and stood trial, for even in the event of conviction the average fine imposed is only $250. Loui's boast concerning his immunity from prosecution seems to be borne out by developments. Not only does he continue his operations boldly and freely, but it is asserted that officers of the prohibition forces are subject to direction from him, and recalcitrant ones who elect to act independently are soon removed by transfer to other districts. Harlemites who witness the bootlegging operations are of the opinion that Federal authorities can remedy these conditions by sending honest and incorruptible agents who will not be intimidated by Loui and his crowd and who will not succumb to the temptation of large bribes. If these agents are backed up by the government and given proper support in the face of Loui's threats, the situation could be cleaned up in three weeks. Don't Drink Hepatab No Sella The men, both Jewish and Italian, who are selling hooch in Harlem, have only the purpose of making money. That the community is degraded and defamed by the palestinian hooch vendor in their joints is evident on every side. Respectfully, in a talk with Hyman, Loeh, Meen and Cainin, the question was asked of one of them if he would drink the wine whiskily or give it which he was selling.

Harlem is in the greedy grasp of organized bootleggers who openly and flagrantly violate the Constitution of the United States! The law-abiding citizens of the community are given an amazing example of how dishonest and unprincipled persons are permitted to trample on the Constitution of the United States, grow rich and get away with it. These hootch hounds show utter contempt for the Eighteenth Amendment, carrying on their illicit business by living for protection. his More graft is paid out for the privilege filling the stomachs of Harlem Negroes had poisonous concoctions than in any other Parition of Greater New York. To the graft- representatives of the law the district singi 125th to 145th street on the North. From Madison avenue to Eighth avenue the West is a most fertile field for ill- tion gain. The demands of crooked en- dement officers and other officials are ex- ting, but the equally crooked bootleggers are willing to give up so long as they are permitted to flood Harlem with hurtful nootch. It is the boast of bootleggers who run a lechain of fake delicatessen, stationery and cigar stores that they have influence enough in the Prohibition Enforcement office of the district to bring about the discharge of an officer or secure his transfer to less productive assignments if he gets too gay. The bootleh hounds have no objection to paying for protection but there are certain rules the receiver of graft must strictly adhere to or else. As usual, the colored enforcement officer disposed to take graft from bootleggers does not fare as well as the dishonest white officer. It is said he is tipped off "to get his" from Negroes trafficking in hootch but to positively let the white crooks alone. White enforcement officers are said to receive $250 while a colored officer gets $10. Intimation is that the $250 is split many ways, some of it reaching sources chiefly responsible for the disgraceful situation existing in Harlem. If the better thinking people of Harlem understood more fully about the deadly liquids sold to thousands of unfortunate Negroes whose minds and bodies are being undermined by drinking such poisonous stuff they would rise in their might and close up every "undertaker's friend" in the community. However, The Age does not advocate such a step being taken until proven conclusively that the law has completely broken down. The white men becoming millionaires by selling denatured alcohol are nothing short of murderers. Under no consideration would they consent to drink what they permit others to put into their system. If Harlem gets the reputation for drunkenness, disturbances and crime it will be the Negro to come in for censure and ridicule, although Jews and Italians are directly responsible for the wave of bootlegging that has engulfed the section today. Harlem could be cleaned up and all the bootlegging joints put out of business within a month if the Prohibition Enforcement office sent the right calibre of men to do the job and then backed them to the limit. There must be something to the talk going the rounds that the bootch hounds are given immunity by officials. Either this is true or the enforcement officers sent to make arrests and secure convictions are not qualified to hold their jobs. Whether crooked or incapable, they should be summarily dismissed for the good of the service. The citizens of the community demand that officials of the United States clean up Harlem. A few minor arrests, sometimes a frameup to satisfy public opinion, will not surface. The closing of hootch joints so far as outward appearance is concerned will not appose the present agitation for the suppression of bootlegging on the wholesale. The public is aroused to the disgraceful situation and knows what is going on. If the Prohibition enforcement officers If the Prohibition enforcement officers must stamp out bootlegging in Harlem their Government will be able to support them our churches and civic organizations. Do this and we predict an early finish for the bootleggers' ring. WHEN WILL SOUTH WAKE UP? Unable to check the exodus by personally appealing to the Negro, economic leaders of Alabama are having published in the daily papers of that State a series of opinions on "Why Should Labor Emigrate from Alabama?" The appeals are addressed to the white people judging from context were not intended for the Negro to read. In a page advertisement published in the Birmingham News, appear, the following paragraphs: The leaders of economic thought are addressing this article and others to come to those who may remedy the conditions which are driving the general servant of the man to the far country. The white people of Alabama have it in their power to keep the Negro in the land where he was born and where his unskilled hands perform labor that the whites do not care to do and will not do. To them goes this, message in order that they may so change conditions, and without much effort, that the Negro may remain here and do his work. All appeals to the Negro himself have been of no avail. Actual conditions which confront him in his new environment have not stopped him. There are no laws on the statute books to which the leaders of Negroes, and they speak for their race, object as discriminatory. They have no quarrel with the Jim Crow laws. They want segregation. They know the white man and black man must live apart, but they want their observance of racial legislation matched by that of the whites. The Negro would live here rather than the North. But in the living he wants to feel that the place he calls home may be so called, as long as he behaves himself, obeys the laws and rules of caste that surround him. Here you have the Southern viewpoint. No appeal is made to the white people to treat the Negro as a man and a citizen. He is referred to as "the general servant of man," whatever that means, who "performs labor that the whites do not care to do and will not do." "The Negro wants segregation. He does not oppose Jim Crow cars and other discriminatory legislation," the white people of Alabama are told. Never was an untruth more brazenly or unconsciously spoken. If the economic leaders of Alabama really believe the Negro does not object to the curse of discrimination they had better see a new light. But the most startling paragraph in the appeal is the position announced by these leaders regarding the caste system. They are willing that the Negro call Alabama his home "as long as he behaves himself, obeys the laws and the rules of caste that surround him!" Quite a bright outlook on life for the Negro—from the economic leaders' point of view. Fortunately, the Negro is doing his own thinking nowadays. He is greatly desirous of bettering his condition the same as all other human beings. The economic leaders will have to deal with him directly, not through the white public. The appeal given out by economic leaders of Alabama proves conclusively that there are white people in the South who still deal with the Negro of yesterday instead of the Negro of today. Nearly half a million Negroes have left the South within a year, yet economic leaders hope to stop the migration by promising segregation, Jim Crow cars, discriminatory legislation and the perpetuation of the caste system. When will the white South wake up? COTTON OR THE NEGRO—WHICH? COTTON OR THE NEGRO—WHICH? The New York Herald is greatly disturbed over the migration, and says it "should alarm all, who are interested in cotton whether they wear it or sell it." Lamenting that both the North and South are being hurt the Herald says: The remedy for the evil is simple, but there is no sign that Congress will apply it. Even the Southern, members are reported to be afraid of amending the immigration law to admit the European labor that the North needs. The labor organizations want the bars kept up and the politicians are afraid to buck them. The result of the present law is high rents and high prices generally. In the South, where many plantations have had to reduce their cotton crops a great industry may be permanently injured. Until the immigration law is made same both the North and South will suffer. No conclusion can be reached from the Herald's line of reason other than Mr. Munsey, Yankee born, a capitalist and a prominent figure in the Republican Party, is more in favor of aliens settling in the North than the American Negro. "Bring in the illiterate laborer from Europe, but keep on the plantations down South natives who also seek industrial freedom." is the sentiment expressed in Mr. Munsey's editorial. Thousands of Europeans want to get into this country to better, their economic status. The New York Herald wants to help them realize this ambition; but it opposes the movement of full-fledged American citizens to settle in the North not only to better themselves economically but to escape from lynchings, Jim Crow cars, disfranchisement and rank racial discrimination. Instead of the Herald indulging in a lot of silly talk about the Southern Negro going into "a region where the climate is not suited to him," and urging the amendment of immigration laws to admit Europeans by the boatloads, would it not be more timely, certainly more effective, if the South were told in plain language just what it must do to keep its Negro citizens from deserting that section? Even the ingenuous scheme advocated by the Herald has been blown out of the water. THE NEW YORK AGE tent among Negroes is in Dixie. What would the flooding of the North with aliens have to do with keeping the persecuted and poorly-paid Negro on the plantation? Not one word of protest was heard from Mr. Munsey when thousands of Negroes were drafted and either brought North or sent to France-to uphold the honor and integrity of this country to fight for democracy, but now he should remain in a section of the country where wages are notoriously low, stand untold abuse because of his color, while immigrants are brought to this country to take advantage of big wages offered by Northern industrial plants and vested with full citizenship. We ask Mr. Munsey, is he more concerned in cotton than he is in the Negro? NEGRO DEATH RATE ON DECREASE. All statements to the effect that the Negro race in America is dying out is refuted by the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, which has more Negro policy holders than any insurance concern in the world. Figures proving that the death-rate among Negroes in urban communities has decreased in recent years and that the migration of the Negro to the North has not been hurtful are produced in an article appearing in The Statistical Bulletin, published by the Metropolitan. While somewhat lengthy for the editorial columns of The Age, we feel that the article is of sufficient importance to reproduce herewith. As to the Negro dying out it says: The plain facts for recent years are entirely opposed to this view, and this can best be seen from the mortality records of Negroes insured in the Industrial Department of the Metropolitan Company. These Negroes are, for the most part, urban dwellers in Southern as well as Northern communities. Life tables show more fittingly than do other measures of mortality just what changes occur from time to time in the expected after-lifespan of population groups. In the two years, 1911-1912, the expected lifespan for colored male policy-holders at age ten was 41.32 years; in 1922, the expectation was 40.74 years; an increase of about 516 years or 131-per cent. This broadening of the hit point among Negro males may be compared with an increase of 63 years or 138 per cent, for insured white males over the same period. Among Negro females at age ten the expectation increased from 41.30 years in 1911-1912 to 40.07 years in 1922, which is a gain of about 5 years or 11.5 per cent. This is a decidedly better record than the increase of 18 years, or 7.5 per cent, for insured white females. These figures show what has happened to promote the general well-being of the American Negro. When the lifespan of a people lengthens by as much as five years over a decade, it is indicative of far-reaching changes in conditions of life and labor. The northward migration of the race in recent years has probably not had any effect, adversely on otherwise, upon the mortality rate of this insured group. In 1922, 41 per cent. of the company's businesses in Negro lives was done in the South and Southeast, and while this figure is slightly less than that for former years, the change of residence has apparently not had any effect on the life experiences figures quoted above. The fact is that North and South the condition of the urban Negro is steadily unimproved and there is no indication that this tender will thicken. While Negro mortality is still much in excess of that among white persons, the gap between the rates for the two races is being closed. Tuberculosis, typhoid fever, malaria and other diseases, which were responsible for excessive death rates among Negroes a decade ago are being brought under control. This is being accomplished by the organized public health movement and by the Negroes themselves. The most powerful factor of all, however, is the rise in the level of well-being for the Negro, brought about by better economic conditions. The above statistical information ought to be authentic and conclusive enough for even those who appear so solicitous about the Southern Negro's inability to become nurted to the chilly breezes of the North. STYLES AND COLOR SCHEME8. What can be done to impress some women that in the wearing of clothes it is very important that the color scheme should be taken into consideration? This editorial was inspired by a heavy-set woman of dark-brown complexion who passed the office of The New York Age one day this week. Her costume might be pertinently referred to as "a rainbow outfit" for the colors she had on exhibition were varied and vivid. This is what she wrote: A black hat trimmed with a purple plume, tan coat embroidered in red, brown dress, red slippers and stockings and green handbag. This discord of colors was so noticeable as to cause many to pause, and stare at the grotesque-appearing member of the gentler sex, who, as quite often is the case, mistook the looks of decision for approving glances. There are many Negro women who display poor taste in choosing colors, and for that matter styles. They do not study what is best suited for or what will enhance their peculiar style of beauty, but select colors and models just because they are in vogue. Well-dressed blondes with blue eyes do not pattern after brunettes in adopting color schemes, and vice versa; but there are women, regardless of the color of their hair, eyes or skin, defy all laws of chiaroscuro. To some it makes no difference whether a certain style is for the short or tall, thin or fat. They think they look good in anything—but they don't. Commenting further on the disposition of some women to go in for every fad introduced and who are slaves to style, what is more infotic and out of place than the spectacle of a woman walking down Seventh avenue swinging a cane? This fad was perhaps started by show girls who "strutted their stuff" up and down Broadway and Fifth Avenue. But there were a number of women in New York to be seen. ing themselves rMiculous. All styles are not for everybody, therefore everybody cannot be for all styles is a lesson some should learn. Pointed Paragraphs Prominent citizens of the Nation have organized among all the young people of the United States, regardless of color, race or creed, the American Sentinels. A citizenship training handbook has been written for boys and girls to be used in inspiring good citizenship. The founder, of the organization says the young people are to take an impressive path by which they will bind themselves to respect law and order and to be fair and tolerant to their fellow American citizens. If the aims and objects of the American Sentinels are faithfully carried out our boys and girls will cease to be confused as to what is one hundred per cent Americanism. The season of the year is here for the making of wholesale appeals for charitable purposes. Collections on behalf of the needy for Thanksgiving dinners and the raising of Christmas funds are in order. All legitimate demands should be heeded. Public-spirited citizens, however, would do well to carefully look into all appeals made to them, for this is also the harvest time for fakers, who in the guise of charity, fleece unsuspecting persons out of thousands of dollars. Do not hesitate to give this year, and give freely, but always be sure you know to whom you are giving. ♦ ♦ In the campaign of the New York Urban League, which opened Monday to raise $40,000. Negroes should personally interest themselves in seeing that Harlem goes over the top by collecting its quota of $10,000. The money is to be used for the betterment of conditions in the community and for the benefit of members of the race. Contributing one-fourth of the full amount certainly is not asking too much of Harlem. ```markdown ``` Speaking of the Negro migration, the Meline (Ill.) Dispatch says: "The Negro's position in America is never going to be the same. Neither is the agricultural situation in the South. With Negro farm labor moving to Northern factories. Southern farmers will be driven more and more to using labor-taving machinery. Even the 'cotton industry may be changed." ♦ ♦ In commenting on the death of Wm. G. Willcox, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Tuskegee Institute, the Tuskegee Student says: "Mr. Willcox served on the Board of Trustees for approximately seventeen years, seven of which he was Chairman of the Board, succeeding Mr. Seth Low in this capacity. As a member of the Board and as chairman he was very active and energetic in promoting the advancement of the work at Tuskegee Institute. He was constantly using his influence to make new friends for the institute and utilizing his experience, gained as a school teacher and as Chairman of the Board of Education of Greater New York in carrying forward the work of Tuskegee." ```markdown ``` Ku Kluxismism is a brand of elastic fanaticism that can be stretched to meet conditions as they specifically present themselves. It was significant that the Imperial Wizard failed to jump on the Negro during his speech some days ago in Fort Wayne, Indiana, as vehemently as he did a couple of weeks previous in Dallas, Texas. A few derogatory remarks were made about the Southern Negro in the Fort Wayne talk, but the Northern Negro was discreetly let alone. The Klan's program is to denounce the Negro where the anti-Negro sentiment is strong, as in some sections of the South, and to be equally as abusive of the Catholic and Jew in localities, where the Catholic Church is dominant and where the Jew has gained supremacy in business over the Gentile. If the Republicans of Harlem are to play practical politics and win back the section to the G. O. P. fold now is the time for the leaders to begin laying plans for the 1924 elections. If a strong, working organization is to be formed by Harlem Republicans keen interest in politics will have to be manifested many months before time to cast the ballot. Let each captain of his election district become personally acquainted with the voters of his district and bring into the G. O. P. hundreds of men and women who never have cast a vote. In the death of Charles Thorley, millionaire florist, the race loses a sincere friend, one who believed the Negro should be more than a hewer of word and a drawer of water. In his Fifth Avenue floral establishment Mr. Thorley employed Negroes in executive positions, in fact, they practically managed his business for a number of years. The chief purchasing agent of Thorley was a Negro who was abroad in the interest of the farm, having been in the farm's employ for twenty-five years. Time and again Thorley was known to have furnished without cost flowers upon the request of Negroes when the exigencies of the occasion demanded. New York in general will greatly miss Charles Thorley, chief one among whom will be the Negro. (By R. B. Eleazer) "Brought by natural hands over land and sea. More roots David Livingstone, Wikibrary, Traveler, Philanthropist." This inscription on a black marble slab in Westminster Abbey suggests but firmly the story of heroic devotion that lies back of it. Little has the world heard of that strange funeral procession of black men which for nine months braved the torrors of the African jungle as they bore the body of Livingstone to the sea, to be sent back to his home by ship. It is a story so significant and so surprising in its revelation of loyalty, of courage, and determination, of thoughtfulness and delicacy of feeling on the part of the great explorer's unmoraled followers that it deserves to be recorded among the world's golden deeds. When in May, 1873, after years of missionary exploration in Central and South Africa, David Livingstone's worn body was able to go no further, his native attendants hurriedly built for him a hut in the village of Chief Chitambo, near the shores of Lake Bangweolo, in the heart of Central Africa. There at dawn a few days later they found him kneeling in death. One might have expected that, these simple children of nature would speedily inter the body and hurry away to their distant homes. Their great friend and leader was dead, his work was ended, his home was ten thousand miles away, all hope for them of further employment and gain was gone—why should they remain longer than was necessary to give his body decent burial? At most they might have been expected to mark his last resting place and await opportunity to send word to the outside world, that his friends might come for the body if they choose. What, as a matter of fact, did these black 'boys' do, these jungle people whose only contact with civilization had been their brief acquaintance with Livingstone? The held a council. They decided that every effort should be made to carry their master's body to the coast, that it might be sent back to England. The perils of the undertaking they fully realized. It was 1.300 miles to the sea. There was no means of transport save their own broad backs and willing limbs. Between them and the distant goal were trackless jungles, ferocious wild beasts, fever-laden swamps, wide rivers, and hostile tribes rendered more menacing by the horror of the dead that everywhere prevailed. Yet the little hand never questioned or hesitated. Their beloved leader had kinsmen and friends across the sea; they would want his RELIGIOUS EDUCATION AND THE NEGRO CHURCH Horace Bushnall has defined religious education, thus: "The true idea of Christian education is: That the child is to grow up a Christian, and never know himself as being otherwise" George Coe had the same thought in mind who she said: "The aim of Christian education becomes this: Growth of the young toward and into mature and efficient devotion to the democracy of God, and happy, self-realization therein." If it is the aim of secular education to enlighten the mind, it is the aim of religious education to enlighten the soul. But the fundamental purpose of religious education is to make the world bones, friendly, bothershy, and happy. Its goal is social-efficiency, social welfare, service, worship, and world fellowship. These ideals can be realized only in a community, where adequate provision is made for the intellectual, moral and spiritual development of each member. Rabbi Hirsch was right in his opinion that, "the greatest failure of the Nineteenth Century has been the failure of religious education. The Eighteenth Century closed with a belief in the efficiency of education, and the best minds of the day seemed to have dreamed of a universal education, and called it the universal panacea for the social ill. We have largely realized those dreams and have discovered that education of the head alone has not kept the promise which the philosophers of the Eighteenth Century believed that it would keep. Education has not decreased the criminal classes, but it has made them more dangerous. Our pub- WITH OUR GIRLS --- (By Horatio Seymour Hill). DEAR GIRLS: Just a line or two to say a few words. First of all, I must say that I was delighted with the column last week, because we keep it up girls. Christmas will soon be here, and while we are planning so many nice things for ourselves, suppose we plan just one nice thing for the column? I would like for every girl to send in a poem, short story, puzzle or anything she wishes to, before the 22nd of December. Start now composing your article for that day. "Innocent" has also made a good suggestion (to me) for that day, and I am anxiously waiting for her to tell us all about it in the column. Every girl should be able to make another suggestion to help make that day a grand one in the column that will long be remembered by many. Alright, girls let's get busy. Welcome "Trixie" to our column and in the "Twilight Brownies", "Lill," will notify you when we meet again. Amanda, Ga., "WILHELMINA." DEAR GIRLS: Don't you get tired of your sister writing religious articles? The is all she knows, and cares about, so I am afraid you will have to be bored for awhile. I dearly love to read the Newark daily paper girl's column. On October 15, one of the girls of this column died. I am not writing to tell you this, but simply to tell of her beautiful character. "Arline" was a sound-invalid. She loved to write letters to shout-ins, and to encourage them in their affliction. The girls of the column expressed their heartfelt sympathy for her loss. A memorial fund, supporting of the girls sending an army to the Congolese land in their hometown, is being established. Saturday, November 24, 1923 body. He was a great man; he to the world. His remains sh among the honored dead of Thus they reasoned, and thus ceeded to act. They collected all his personal ings, his instruments and his carefully packed them for trai removed the heart and other buried them, erecting a mark spot. They cautioned the clue the grass cut about the mark might not be destroyed by fourteen days the body was the sun. Then it was careful in calico and included in a later drical piece of bark.

They crossed the River where it is four miles long. They fought: their way through a lage. Their progress was slow. A tribe that refused to permit sage of a dead body, but who were able to proceed. Some of miles from the coast the party of Englishmen who had been in search of Livingstone. Good things, said the Englishman, the body here, and go home. Tomed as they were to obey the man one might have expected the would eagerly embrace the opportunity. But not so. With jection they without question haunted by their long turned over the instruments but with regard to the body inflexible. They would not be. They would not surrender. It must go on to the sea. And given it did. At last in February, 1874 the cocteau reached the most and the red burden, which for nine months had home on their shoulders and protected with their lives was no longer a ship bound for England. They took into the jungle the brave blood without other reward than the memory of their great and good friend and the knowledge that they had been fabled to the last. Thinking upon the story I was strained to hold in deeper reverence and confidence a race which even in savage and unprotected state was capable of gentiments to fine and of a deed to heroic. His schools may give an unimaginable but they do not give him an advantage. They give him impower to do his best in military force and will to restrain him from using that power. In carrying the head and not the heart and the public schools are failing at a crucial point. In the early days of New England life the line between secular education and what is now called religious education was not sharply drawn. The Catechism, Creed and Lord's Prayer were inscribed in every New England Primer. Public school teacher, as a rule were men of faith. Men who led after the affairs of state and the sanction from the church, with the development of our National Government education was graduated. As a result of this change in government the Bible lost its place among the public schools of the country. During the last twenty years the white churches of America have undertaken seriously a new program of religious instruction. These churches have made a rapid stride in the field of religious education. My recent survey of religious education among the Negro churches of America has uncovered some interesting facts. There are over 36,720 Negro churches in this country. Less than one of these churches have attempted a systematic program of religious education. This leaves at least 36,644 Negro churches and over 4,000,000 Negro Protestants with no systematic program of religious instruction. This is a serious investment. If the Negro church is to make its greatest contribution to the work it must in a more systematic way vide for the religious instruction of boys and girls. The short space of time given each Sunday is not sufficient to give the child his philosophy of life. Dear Net L = So often I have thought of and wanted to write you all.

MOGANI We have a friend who is a Pullman porter. This friend has a son, a high school student. This of itself means nothing in a large community like Harlem, yet there is something about the way in which the father is trying to rear his boy, that adds substantially to his paternity. For instance, he impresses upon his boy the fact that it is his duty to honor and obey his parents, especially his mother, under all conditions and circumstances his mother's comfort and happiness should be his next consideration, that in the event of anything happening to him, the father, it is the duty of the son to look after and care for his mother. Next in importance, he tells his boy to treat with dignity and respect all womankind, irrespective of their race, color or social standing. Especially should this be observed when we shall have arrived at the age at which he is allowed to call upon young ladies. Lastly, he cautions his boy to remember that he, the father, is doing everything in his power to assist him in getting an education and that he must take full advantage of his opportunities, for when his school days are over, whatever career he chooses, he will be expected to make good at it. Perhaps that is the advice and anticipation of most long parents and it is rather discouraging to observe the number of parental air-caskets that crumble to ruin among us, but personally, we are strongly of the belief that this boy will come up to expectations. If he doesnt, the fault will not be with his father. A few issues back, this paper contained a very splendid and instructive editorial, under the heading "Give our Children a Future" in which this question was asked. "What is being done by the older Negroes in the community, to give their young folks a future?" Individually, this latter is supplying the answer. We have, at different times, attempted to explain in the columns of this paper, some of the many requirements and responsibilities of Pullman porters in the efficient performance of their classified duties. We first told about the in-charge porters, and show necessary it was for them to be quick and accurate with figures while on the job. We next dealt on the things which the sleeping car porters had to see after, and with which they had to contend, in order to render first class service. We then portrayed the essential qualifications of our private-car porters by citing an expert from the "Wall Street Topics" of the New York Herald, which told how a certain cup of financiers were looking forward with satisfaction of a contemplated trip because they were to have the same porters who accompanied them on other trips. This time, we are introducing those porters whose responsibilities are greatest of all—the buffet porters. Not only are they accountable for the degree of service, but they are also held re- FEMALE TROUBLES Wish for FREE BOOK Guard Your Health Do More to Live A Publication of the American Medical Association Custodians are 4 31 MORTGAGE CENTER PLACE, THREETOWN, N. 4 A Fice of the University with all仰助 for Students Courses completed in Four Worries Dispatcher Group THE material contrast between the earrings with which he (Bobster T.

H. Ellis, Who Craved a Kingdom Leaves Only $5,000 Colored Texan, Posing as Cuban, Won and Lost Several Fortunes—Wanted Abyssinia Throne. When the will of the late Wm. H. Ellis, a Texas Negro who came to New York and won and lost several fortunes in Wall Street, posing the while as a Cuban banker, was filed at Mount Vernon a few days ago, it was revealed that his estate amounted to only $5,000. Ellis had a spectacular career. He schemed and plotted to supplant the late Menikil as King of Abyssinia, planning to develop a Negro nation. Then he started a colony of Negroes in Mexico. This scheme went to ruin, but report had it that Ellis was a fortune for him, self through concessions. Much surprise is expressed that his estate should be so small. It is all personal property, with no reality holdings, and is left to his wife, Mrs. Maud Sherwood Ellis of Mount Vernon. Ellis died September 24 in Mexico City. Ellis, whose exploits rival fiction for color, bought a jewel-studded saddle valued at $6,000 for the King of Abyssinia to further his purpose to unseat that dignitary. He javished other rich gifts upon the King, but failed to capture the crown. Friends said that Ellis slighted his genius for making money by following the vision of royalty in Abyssinia. He succeeded in having the State Department negotiate a treaty of amity and commerce with King Menikil, but the treaty never reached Abyssinia. An emissary disappeared from a ship while emulate to join Ellis. A revolution that Ellis had planned never materialized and the financier went to Mexico. Among the many times Ellis goes into the public eye were when he voiced his resentment in being placed in a "Jim Crow" car in the South because of his dark skin, and when he intervened in the peace negotiations during the Huerta regime in Mexico. Marcus Garvey and Party Visit Tuskegee Institute Tuskegee Institute. Ala—Among the recent visitors at Tuskegee Institute were Mr. and Mrs. Marcus Garvey, Miss Willis, secretary to Mr. Garvey, and Dr R C Rarsom, editor of the A M E. Church Review, New York City. Mr Garvey, who is president of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, stopped over at Tuskegee for two days. He spoke to the students in the Institute chapel, and gave $50 to the school. Dr Ransom spent Monday and Tuesday at the Institute. On Monday evening he delivered an address at the Washington Chapel A M E.

On each location the larger audience which greeted him was thrilled by his eloquence and his timely advice. sponsible financially. Invariably, the first question the seasoned traveller asks, after he or she boards a car, especially if they have never travelled over the route before, is, "Does this train carry a dining car? If the reply is in the negative, the next question is, "Is there a buffer car?" Should the answer be in the affirmative, you will observe a certain amount of contention at least, and the most important employee on that train to that passenger, not excepting the engineer, is the buffer porter, for he is the steward, the cnet and the waiter. To be an efficient buffersporter requires a good memory, a great amount of patience and a proficiency of adaptiveness. He takes the meal orders, prepares them, then does the serving. He is what we call the "three-in-one" man. Added to all that, he must uphold the Pullman standard of regulations and rules, which are well known to be of a very systematic order. Thus it is quite obvious, even to those of limited intelligence, that any old person cannot fill these Pullman jobs.

Fort Smith, Ark.-As a result of a mass meeting held by the Colored Welfare Association at the Ninth Street Baptist Church for the purpose of raising funds with which to purchase school books for children whose parents are unable to buy them, 150 Negro school children at Dunbar, Durham, Lincoln and Washington schools were provided with the school supplies required for pursuance of their courses. Cash pledges and subscriptions were made at the mass meeting and funds were subscribed to injure ample supplies for the children whose parents were not able to provide them. Rev. B. F. Neal, president of the Negro Welfare Association, Rev. L. L. Worlds, pastor of the Ninth Street Baptist Church, and Robt D. Harrison were largely responsible for the raising of the funds. Expressions of gratitude and appreciation were made by the pupils and instructors of all the schools for the cooperation extended by the Negro citizens and the three officials who were leaders of the movement. Bordentow Innd'l School Holds Parents' Meeting Bordentown, N. J.-With an attendance of nearly one hundred and fifty parents from all parts of New Jersey, the Bordentown Industrial School on November 3, held a successful Parents Conference. Immediately after breakfast the visitors began to assemble, mothers and fathers, relatives, friends, laden with boxes and bags of goodies destined for the stomachs of their young hopefuls. The days' program consisted of inspections of classes and shop work in the morning, dimmer served by the school kitchen, a program, by the students, and the conference in the afternoon with the faculty of the school. Great enthusiasm was shown over the changes in the school grounds since last fall. Before the close of the meeting $2.55 was collected from those present in pledges and cash for the building of the Citizens' Gateway. The principal, W. R. Valentine, announced that $1,500 is now in the hands of Dr. George E. Cannon of Jersey City, treasurer of the campaign, and that the schools hopes to dedicate the gateway next Commencement Day.

And when they are retained they are given only the toughest and least desirable part of the work to do. It is estimated that there are two thousand union Negro carpenters in and around New York but they have no walking delegate of their own and are not represented in the higher circles of the union. In 1917 the colored carpenters of Harlem formed a sub-local of their own, thinking that in this way they would be able to have their own walking delegate who could present their greavances to the St. Marks Council. This organization, Local 1848, United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America, now has 300 members and conducts its meetings at the Antillean Hall. 129th street near Lenox avenue, but in most respects it has been badly neglected by the higher union officials of the Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners, and for all practical purposes is a union in name only. There are, however, a large number of colored members in the various white locals of the city, and while they fare better than their brothers in Local 1888, they, too, are often discriminated against in that they are the last hired, the first 100 VISITING CARDS FREE!

Post and McCord, who built the new 39th Arpartment, employed a number of colored carpenters and other mechanics on this job. George S. Cornell of 14 Morningside avenue, a sub-contractor in the construction of the Yankee Stadium, employed a large number of colored carpenters on this job and has always shown a tendency to be fair. There are several other big contractors who have employed and are employing colored men, despite the protest of some of their workers of other races, but the general tendency is now against the employment of large numbers of colored mechanics except in cases of emergency. H Blackburn, the secretary of Local 1888, states that there is a rule in the union which gives the District Council the power to access a fine of $50 against foremen who discriminate against members of the union because of race or nationality, but he pointed out that there must be at least one witness to the alleged discrimination before the matter will be taken up by the union officials. He also stated that the reason his local was without representation was because each union is required to have a minimum of 1,000 members to have a walking delegate and to have full representation in the District Council. During the war, he said, his union had nearly 2,000 members, but this number has since fallen off to about 300 financial members at the present time. "If all the colored carpenters scattered about the city, who are now outside the union, would unite with them," Mr. Blackburn concluded, "we would in a short time be able to demand and get the representation in the District Council which would soon remedy this situation." Newark. N. J. Newark, N. J.-Sunday. November 18 was one of the "Red Letter" days at the Thirteenth Avenue Presbyterian Church. Paters' and Sons' Day was observed at the 11 o'clock service. A number of fathers and sons were present. Dr. Ellerson, the pastor, prescheduled the special sermon for the occasion from the subject: "What Manor of Son Shall This Be?" The evening service was for the organizations of the church. Dr. Wm. A. Byrd of Jersey City could not be present on account of illness and the organizations were addressed by the pastor on the subject; "The Key to Successful Church Work." The organizations made a splendid appearance, dressed uniformly in white. The music by the senior choir was excellent. Three persons joined the church, one was baptized, and the financial effort for the day was more than $600. The Junior Choir will render a sacred concert-pageant on Sunday evening.

THE STAGE AND ATHLETICS In The Realm of Music By Lucien H. White 1923 Concert Season Is Marked by Hayes' Recital With the Boston Symphony PAGE SIX In The Realm By Lucien 1923 Concert S Marked by H With the B The music season oi 1923-24 promises to be as full of rich and interesting events, both vocal and instrumental, as the 1922-23 season was empty. Already there have been several that aroused general interest, but the past week has brought the most interesting single event, racially speaking, that has been chronicled in these columns. That was the appearance in Boston on Friday evening, November 16, of Roland W. Hayes, the Negro tenor, who returned from England to accept an engagement as soloist with the Boston Symphony Orchestra. The recognition shown Mr. Hayes in this particular is unusual in that he is the first Negro singer in America's history to have won so high a distinction. In the first few days in America last winter, Mr. Hayes has been in Europe since 1920, winning commendation from the world's most distinguished patrons of music, and affording pleasure through his splendid interpretations to audiences in all the European centers of culture. The merit of his work in London attracted Paris, and here he was given his first recognition as soloist with a great symphony orchestra. Gabriel Piece, famous French conductor, soon had engaged Mr. Hayes to appear in Paris in the Colonne Orchestra concerts. Then Vienna opened its gates to the American Negro tenor, and Hayes singing of the German lieder won him as great favor as did his singing of the French chanson in Paris, and his English art songs and Negro Spirituals in London. And in London he had sung by royal command before the King and Queen and royal entourage at Buckingham Palace, at which time he was presented by King George with a diamond pin surmounted by the royal monogram and the imperial crown. Then came his American recognition: Pierre Monteux, conductor of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, became convinced that Hayes' wonderful voice had raised the singer above petty color lines, and that his great art would win even color-phobied American audiences. So Hayes was engrafted as first choice soloist for America's most distinguished orchestra, and his initial concert was in Sanders Hall, Cambridge, on Thursday night. November 15, followed quickly by the big event on Friday, November 16, at Symphony Hall Box. He had his haplated audience the colored singer a most enthusiastic reception, and after his opening number, the applause was a sertable avalanche of sound. He was recalled six times in Cambridge and as many times in Boston. The Negro tenor is also engaged for recital engagements with the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, and after these orchestral engagements are filled, he will be heard by audiences in all sections of the country, by he will make a two or three months tour of the East, South and West. MUSIC NOTES DeBose, Pianist, and Bell, Baritone, Give Enjoyable Joint Recital On Tuesday evening, November 13, at Grace Congregational Church, 308 West 138th street, a large group of serious minded music lovers assembled to hear Chopin, Liszt, Brahms, and other composers for the pianoforte, interpreted by Tourgee DeBose, while William Service Bell, baritone, sang songs by Franz Mendelssohn, Kraper, Fourdrain, Tosti, and our own race composer, J. Turner Lyaton. It was my first opportunity to hear DeBose, and other imperative engagements limited even this evening's opportunity. But the effort necessary was well repaid, for DeBose disclosed himself as an artist of considerable ability, deserving the reputation which had preceded him—a rather unusual eventuation. Possessed of simple technical equipment, he has a colorful temperament and been comprehension that; is reflected in the interesting results created by his playing. Refinement, delicacy, sympathy and understanding were exhibited in the rendition of a group of miniatures which included an arabesque in dissonances of the modern school, "Maynight," by Palmgren, an Etude in F sharp by Arensky, another etude, "If I were a bird to you I would fly," by Henselt, "The Nightingale" by Liszt, Barcarolle by Liadow, and a Scherzo by York Bowen. In the Brahms' Scherzo, opus 4. Mr DeBose displayed further his mastery of the piano. If there is any fault to be discovered, it is in a tendency to accelerate too greatly the tempo. This, perhaps, is due to the fact that the pianist seems to have a digital dexterity that has mastered all mechanical difficulties, affording a virtuosity, a technique that defies the most difficult combination of harmonies and solves easily the most intricate melodic arrangements. Mr. Bell's singing displayed a cold intellectuality that will be added to immeasurably to its advantage if there should be injected a liberal dose of personal enthusiasm. He has a voice of good quality which has been well and carefully trained, but there is an apparent absence of interest in the singer. The tone rendered by Mr. Bell took color life, and his singing of a common life, which it is the German leader of Pyrenees,曼德森斯, the French of Foundation, or the English of Leuven, is quite different and peculiar. ed for lack of substance. . With Mr. Bell's natural voice and splendid mental equipment, coupled with the competent study which he seems to have done, his singing would be much more enjoyable if he were to put more energy and feeling into it. The Prampins Present Pupils in Program of An Interesting Variety The third annual recital of the Harry and Laura Prampin School of Music was given at Renaissance Casino on Tuesday evening, November 13, with an appreciative, though not large, audience in attendance. According to the program announcement, the pupils appearing in the orchestral numbers were of from one to three years study, while a group of ten young saxophonists who competed for the gold medal, won, as told last week, by Wm. Evans, was made up of one and two year pupils. The program opened with a group of orchestral numbers, with Harry Prampin conducting, assisted by Laura Prampin, and this was followed by three piano solos, played respectively by Hazel Shankley, 2nd year; Charlotte Allan, 2nd year; and Miss Amie Prime, 1st year practical training. The illness of a 2nd year pupil, Mrs. Doria Askew, brought Mrs. Prampin as a substitute, and she sang with rich and luscious tone Millard's "Across the sands," responding with an encore. The saxophone contest came next, and then the band, led by Mr. Prampin, gave a group of ensemble and solo numbers. Sousa's march, "Sempre Fidelis," was followed by "Down on the farm," a trombone solo by John Atkin, 2nd year; a descriptive number, "A Hunting Scene," preceded another trombone solo, "The Message," by William Rites, 2nd year; Mrs. Prampin then came forth as a cornet solist, playing "Sullivan's Lost Chord," and the program closed with the march, "Chimes of Liberty." The presentation speeches were made by Fred R. Moore, editor of The New York Age. The day marked also Mr. Prampin's birthday, and Mr. Moore, on behalf of Mrs. Prampin, presented to him first a beautiful bouquet of roses, and then a box containing handsome wearing apparel. The 14-karat gold medal was then presented by Mr. Moore to the saxophone contest winner, Wm. Evans. After the concert program was ended, the chairs were moved back and the Prampin School Orchestra played an extended dance program which lasted until 2.30 a.m. m. Sunper was served under auspices of the school in the dining room, and here Mrs. Prampin proved herself a versatile artist, for the delicious chicken and potato salad, the pigs' feet, and the other toothsome foodstuffs served had been prepared by her. Mikell's Midget Players Give Splendid Concert At Newman Mem. Church A numerous audience assembled a Newman Memorial M. E. Church, Herkimer street and Russell place, Brooklyn, the Rev. Thomas W. Cooper, pastor, on Friday evening, November 16, to hear an unusually good program which had been arranged by Lieut. F. Eugene Mikkel, bandmaster of the 369th regimental band, director of the 369th Cadet Band, composer and instructor, who has attained high reputation because of his success as a teacher of young musicians boys and girls. From cadet band, and from his private studio, Lieut Mikkel had assembled a group of kiddies under the name of Mikkel's Midget Orchestra, and they appeared on this occasion in interest of the 23rd anniversary, thanksoffering of Newman Church, under auspices of the rally captains, James Powell, chairman, Lucien H. White, secretary, Everett W. Payne, treasurer. Lieut. Mikell arranged a program that exhibited the ability of the talented juveniles in a most favorable light. There was a smoothness and authority about the work of the youngsters that might well be envied by many older performers. They range in age from 8 to 15 years, the younger ones predominating, both in numbers and in performance. Fifteen little musicians composed the orchestra and they captured the audience in the very first number, an ensemble rendition of Weber's dainty little walts, "Softly gliding." Then followed in rapid succession, to the enthusiastic appreciation of the audience, the following program: Violin solo, Arthur Garvin; saxophone solo, Osborne Walker; mandolin solo, William Garvin (the youngest of the group and Lieut. Mikell's only pupil on that instrument); cornet solo, Edwin Gill; violin duet, Russell and William Procope; saxophone solo, Everard Powell; trombone solo, Farnley Jordan; cornet solo, Miss Leah Day; piano solo, Miss Lavinia Johnson; violin solo Miss Olivette Johnson; saxophone solo, F.

Commonwealth Five Defeats Brooklyn Profs. Sunday Eve'g Hard Fought Game Is Not Won by Locals Until Within Two Minutes of Its Close. Two excellent games were presented at-the Commonwealth Casino on Sunday night, November 18. In the preliminary game the Corsicans won a 25-24 victory against the Sterling Five after five minutes extra play. In the main event the Brooklyn Professionals were defeated by a score of 40-31. The score of the latter game should not be construed to mean an easy victory for the Commonwealth. It was one of the hardest fights they have had all season and the substantial lead was not obtained, until two minutes of the end of the game. Harold Jenkins, who is being given a tryout by the local team, started the game instead of his famous brother. As it was his first game this season, the pace was a little too fast for him and soon the score was 12-3 in favor of the Brooklyn team. "Fat" Jenkins went in at this time and succeeded in checking the scoring of Byrnes, the star forward of the Professionals. Fial was unusually accurate with his shots and by the end of the half had succeeded in bringing his team one point in the lead. During the second half, first one side and then the other was in the lead until five minutes before the game ended. Then two long shots by Fial and another by Jenkins gave the local team a lead five points. From then on they began to kill and their opponents fouled several times in an effort to obtain possession of the ball. Finally they did get it and Byrnes made another of his clever shots. Another goal field by Staucheberry for the Professionals brought the score within a point of being tied. But a final dash by Jenkins, Fial and Moton in the last two minutes gave them their big margin of victory. The game was fast and thrilling and was witnessed by the largest crowd of basketball fans that has been at the Commonwealth this season. The entire Commonwealth team played well. Fial was at his best and so was Hubbard. The lineup and summary of the game was as follows: Commonwealth Brooklyn Moton R.F. Stauchberry Fial L.F. Byrnes Sessoms C O'Day Hubbard R.G. O'Brien H.

Indications Point To Record Crowd at the Howard-Lincoln Game Howard University's big victory over Hampton on November 17 has around more interest in the Howard-Lincoln game, in Philadelphia on Thanksgiving Day; them has been exhibited here before. Unless Howard is defended by Lincoln, she will be the undisputed champion of the East for the season. Most of the fans feel that Lincoln will have some job on her hands, for they concede the Blue and White one of the strongest teams in its football history, but as Lincoln has always shown surprising strength in this game, many of them are looking for an upset to Howard's championship aspirations. It is expected that at least 2,000 New Yorkers will be present at the game. The probable lineup of the two teams: Howard—Long, Smith, Kelley, Priestley, Anderson, Doakes, Williams, Conte, Peyton, Doneghy and Blackmon; Lincoln—Lancaster, Coston, Poindexter, Morgan Carter, S. L. Johnson, Crudup, Byrd, Captain Johnson, Taylor and Goodman. The officials of the game will be Referee, Gibson, Springfield "Y"; bumpire, Bullock; Dartmouth; field judge, Washington, Oberlin; head linesman, Douglas, Harvard. Lincoln and St. Paul Lincoln University, Pa.—It is doubtful if any game played during the present season will be productive of better foot ball and more concentration on the part of the spectators than the St. Paul Lincoln game which was played here November 10. It is possible that Coach Young was more concerned with wording a possible defens than he was in achieving a victory, for it has been conceded from all quarters that St. Paul has one of the best foot ball aggregations on the gridiron today. They are a big huky group of fellows who have been well coached in all departments of the game, and their playing during the year has been consistently good, and in no game have they been actually out played by their opponents. Owing to injuries received in the Hampton game, Coach Young decided to hold back until the last minute, some of his very best players, and Morgan, Coston, Carter, Byrd and Captain Johnson were held on the bench. The other regulars and substitutes who made up the team played very largely a defensive game. For a while St. Paul's shifts and double shifts were puzzling, but Lincoln managed to hold them fairly well throughout the game, but on many occasions the interference was so good that a St. Paul man would carry the ball for many yards before being stopped by Lincoln. Lincoln was at a decided disadvantage with her light back field men; Pollit, Brown and Goodman being unable to make headway against St. Paul's heavy line. Towards the end of the first quarter, Lincoln, after having carried the ball within striking distance, made a field goal from the 35-yard line. Crudk kicking the ball. In the beginning to the fourth quarter Lincoln was penalized because of Hogans attempt to slug. For this St. Paul was given half of the distance of the field, which brought the ball within striking distance of Lincoln's goal. At this point St. Paul scored a field goal, Walker kicking the ball. At this point Coach Young sent in his regulars, but they were unable to turn the VS. LINCOLN C OF THE SEASON NOVEMBER 29, 1923 PARK, Philadelphia, Pa. D AT 2 P.

C.-Before a crowd of several thousand fans, gathered from all parts of South Carolina and Georgia, the Tuskegee Tigers defended the strong South Carolina State College on November 9, by a score of 13-6, in a game that held the interest of the spectators to the late-minute of play. The people were there from every section rallying for State College and for Tuskegee. Tuskegee received the kick and Stevenson returned it. State College muffed the return kick and it was Tuskegee's ball near the center of the field. With a series of line bucks and tackle plays, Tuskegee carried the ball to State's 5-yard line. There, State held for downs, but in attempting to kick out, the full-back was rushed so that a very poor kick was made. The ball went about ten yards and bounded back towards the goal line. It was Tuskegee's ball, first down, and four yards between them and a touch-down. Three rushes carried the ball across the goal. Tuskegee failed to kick goal and the score was 6-0. In the second half, Tuskegee started with a series of fast end plays, delayed drives through the line and forward passes, and soon had the ball over for another touch down. Stevenson kicked an easy goal. The score now stood 13-0. State College came back with much determination. They opened up with a series of forward passes. Cottingham received most of them for consistent gains. State lost the ball but again received it and in about the last two minutes of play succeeded in making a long diagonal forward pass of about 40 yards to Cottingham who made their only touch down. State failed to kick goal.

Nafatti Not Only Colored Cyclist To Ride in 6-Day Race In last week's issue of The Age it was stated that All Nafatti, the non-groebie bicycle rider, would be the next Nego to compete in six-day bicycle races at Madison Square Garden. A number of readers have written calling out attention to this statement, alleging that it is a mistake. James E. Taylor, of 108 West 131st street, writes in part as follows: "You state that Nafatti is the only colored marrow to compete in the six-day bicycle races in this city. I beg to inform you that this statement is enormous, as I was present at previous six-day bicycle races when Major Tassler, M. T. Dove, James H. Gray and Hippehspet competed, and they were all colored. In justice to these men and the race, the correction should be made." Nafatti is the only colored cyclist competing this year, so far as we know, and the only one who has competed since the World War.
