IGNORED IN CAYUGA CLUB EAT Negro Democratic leaders of the 19th Assembly District are reported to be considerably chaperoned over the manner in which they were treated at the Cayuga Democratic Club of the 19th A D on Monday night. They were given a cordial welcome to the club to receive instructions as to Tuesday's Primaries, but they were closely and quickly ushered out after instructions had been imparted and so were not permitted to join the dinner which was served immediately afterward; all the white politicians present by the Club's Negro steward. A number of colored men and women workers were present under William Banks leader of the colored Tammans, but it is alleged that not one was asked or permitted to remain for the dinner.

Attorney and Made No Campaign for Office. Washington, D. C.—Little credence is given here to the report that Colonel William Hayward will be forced out as District Attorney of New York as a result of the testimony given in the Daugherty inquiry by Wm. Orr. Senator Wadsworth and other friends of Colonel Hayward long ago dismissed Orr's testimony as unimportant because of the known facts surrounding Hayward's appointment. Friends have pointed out that as a matter of fact the Colonel did not make a campaign to be made District Attorney, as indicated by Orr's testimony. The truth is that Colonel Hayward was in France at the time, and his friends were urging him for the appointment as American Ambassador to France. There were local complications in the city political organization, however, and no endorsement of Hayward was made. Instead, he was the personal selection of Attorney General Daugherty while Hayward was still in France. Senators Wadsworth and Calder, of course, ap proved his selection When Colonel Hayward returned to America, he had already been named and confirmed as United States Attorney. The point also was made by friends of Colonel Hay ard that the New York District Attorney had prosecuted Orr on charges of issuing bogus liquor permits, and had sought to send him to prison. been given the colored workers were given a handshake, a pat on the back, and informed in so many words that their presence was no longer desired. It was equivalent to saying to them "We have your votes cinched; we control Morton, he controls: Banks, and Banks controls you." It is even asserted that leaders willen and Matthews are quoted as saying that "We would like to have you move from the District, but as long as you will remain we will use you and your votes. Further information is to the effect that as soon as the colored Tammy-ites had departed, the white captains went on down stairs and seated themselves around the table and were served dinner by the steward, himself a colored occupant of the wigwant. FAITHFUL SERVANT WINS WILL CONTEST FOR $50,000 ESTATE Trenton, N. J. Judge Wells of Burlington County ruled against the contest in the matter of the will of the late Mrs Emma I. Woodward of Trenton who bequeathed the bulk of her estate, amounting to from $40,000 to $50,000 to Miss Amelia Stuart, colored, who had been for thirty years a faithful and beloved servant to Mrs Woodward. The will was contested by Mrs Virginia W Armstrong of Trenton, a sister of the deceased, but the judge ruled that the bequest was the result of the faithful service rendered by Miss Stuart for the thirty years of her association with Mrs Woodward.

SHAKE UP HARLEM BOOTLEGGERS HoochHoundsAreRuthlesslyHandledByOfficers And Hundreds of Gallons of Hooch and Alcohol Are Seized---Many Employes Arrested in the Raid ONLY BOOTLEGGING KING TO ESCAPE WAS "CHIEF" POMERANTZ, AND IT IS REPORTED THAT HE WAS TIPPED OFF ABOUT THE RAID JUST A HALF HOUR BEFORE SPECIAL SERVICE SQUAD OFFICERS REACHED HIS PLACE, BUT THAT GAVE HIM SUFFICIENT TIME TO REMOVE HIS STOCK OF HOOCH AND SEQUESTRATE IT IN THE HOME OF HIS EMPLOYES-MOE'S SECRET CACHE IN'CELLAR IS FOUND, AND SO IS HIDING PLACE IN PANELS OF WALLS IN HYMAN'S CIGAR STORE. Harlem hooch hounds were given a severe shock on Thursday night and Friday of last week, when a squad of special service men from Police Headquarters made a foray that resulted in the seizing of several truck loads of alcohol and alleged alcoholic liquors from places conducted by Hyman, Loui, Moe and Goldgraben at various locations on Lenox avenue. Diligent effort was made to secure evidence from the hooch joints operated by "Chief" Pomerantz, but this bootlegging chief had received a "buzz," as one of his employs put it, warning him of the impending raid about a half hour before it happened, with the result that he was able to get in touch with his employs in the two remaining places he now operates and have them hurriedly remove the illegal store of illicit beverages to a safe hiding place. COLUMBUS HILL MAN SHOOTS WIFE, THEN JUMPS TO OWN DEATH "I guess I'll heat the electric chair to it!" exclaimed Lyne Applewhite, a Negro, of 215 West 62nd street, as he rushed to the window of his sixth floor apartment and leaped to death in the courtyard below. His children, who had just stood and saw him pump nine bullets from an automatic pistol into the body of his wife and their mother killing her instantly, were helpless and paralyzed in face of the double tragedy. Applewhite conducted a grocery store at the 62nd street address, and was apparently prosperous. Just what led to the killing and suicide has not been disclosed ASK DISMISSAL OF INDICTMENT AGAINST SHEILDS IN KILLING In Special Sessions Court, Part I, before Judge McIntyre on Tuesday, April 1, counsel for Eugene Shields former manager of the Lafayette (cafe and a brother of Assemblyman Henry W. Shields asked for a dismissal of the indictment for murder under which Shields is now being held a prisoner in the Tombus. Shields returned to his home at 432 St Nicholas avenue at 9 a.m on February 28. On entering he found Burt Adams an aitor in the apartment clothed only in part of a pajama suit. Adams fled into a room but Shields fired through the door, the bullets striking Adams in the abdomen, causing almost instant death. Judge McIntyre took the motion under adjudgment. BLACK HERMAN HELD FOR FORUNE TELLING Rack Herman the age's imagination of 112 West Bob street was arrested on a warrant issued by Chief Magistrate M. Ad. Monday afternoon March 31 on a charge of attempting to tell the choice of Fellow man Adele Press. He was released under $500 bail Monday evening out, preliminary heat gas at Heyles's 10th Forest, among the 1000 of all 100 of the April. De-delegated at 10:45 11 on a charge of a 10th-day 10th-day 10th-day 10th-day 10th-day 10th-day which was claimed to be 10th-day and 10th-day after the 10th-day 10th-day 10th-day 10th-day 10th-day people who pay to 10th-day 10th-day lottery daily. But even at that, according to report, the "Chief" is professing to be discouraged and is credited with saying that he is about ready to quit the game, saying that it was getting to the place it could too much; that while profits were large, he had to pay too much graft to the various officials to make the game worthwhile. There is some doubt, however, as to the sincerity of Pomerantz, one of his intimates remarking that it was a hard game to quit after starting, that the enormous profits possible were always a temptation to take another try at it, that with a large supply of alcohol which is so easily converted into the various forms of hooch dispensed in the bootlegging joints, the bootlegger was generally willing to take another chance. Find Cellar Cache. The agents were more successful in their raids upon the delicatessen store at 419 Lenox avenue, run by Moe Bamberger as a camouflage for his hooch operations. Moe's stock, it developed, was kept in a secret cache in the cellar which runs underneath the corner store, occupied by the United Cigar Stores Co., and the entrance is on 136th street. The agent got into this cellar and found the secret hiding place. It is reported that the police patrol van was loaded entirely with the stuff found in this cellar. Hyman's place at 411 Lenox avenue, a pseudo cigar store, also furnished a heavy load, although the agents had to use strategy in order to discover the secret store rooms. An eyewitness of the raid reports that the agents visited the cigar store and made a thorough search without success. Apparently satisfied, they left. The bartender, believing the agents would not return immediately began serving the customers who thronged in. But alas! for the bartender, the agents also stronged back with the customers, and it is said discovered a panel in the wall which had been opened by the bartender and behind which it is alleged the hooch was kept. It was a matter of a few minutes only for the special service men to smash into the panelling of the walls and it was declared that they found an enormous quantity of denatured alcohol disguised as heat in the tumultously disguised hiding place. 10-GALLON STILL IN ACTIVE OPERATION IS SEIZED BY POLICE A sergeant of police, attached to the 86th Precinct happened to be walking through 136th street between Seventh and Eighth avenues on Friday afternoon March 28, when he noticed a moving van standing in front of what appeared to be an unoccupied house at No. 253. Of course, there was nothing unusual in this, but the keen eyed guardian of the law noticed that the petratives on the moving van were lashing some strange and peculiar-looking pieces of metal ware and they seemed to be handling them rather gingerly. Laking a close look at the car, a striking smile came in some of the signs he was looking at and there which had from time to time been brought into the West 135th street station house its parts of raided metal shine stills. Suspicion became a certain when a distinctive color changeting from the cellar of the house stuck in struts. In a gaze held that compulsed of the house and all the previous day but the star which was in active reintroduction and one can barely see it, was being taken into the room and more and more unimpinging to the owner's will. It would be the station where the house would make a detailed investigation of the play performed to be a 10 gallon in. No pieces were made. thronged back with the customers, and it is said discovered a panel in the wall which had been opened by the bartender and behind which it is alleged the hooch was kept. It was a matter of a few minutes only for the special service men to smash into the paneling of the walls and it was declared it at they found an enormous quantity of denatured alcohol disguised as hooch in the seemingly devised hiding place. All of the liquors stored from Morse, Hyman's, Louis and Goldgraben's places were transported quickly to the 38th Precinct station house on West 135th street. Several arrests were made, including Hyman's partner, Black, and the colored bartender, but these men were soon released on halls. And as soon as they were released they returned to Lenox avenue and started operations again. Passersby on that street declare that within a half hour after the places had been cleaned out by the officers, there was an ample supply of booch again on hand and the trade was being supplied openly and boldly as ever. Evidence of this is found in the fact that in at least three instances the same house joint was raided twice. At a room at 605 Lexon avenue could be found. I Louis was raided twice on Friday the bartender Charles Williams at 1101 West 138th street being at rested both times on 9:40 am and again at 1:00 pm. Williams at 1101 West 138th street was at 11:00 pm. Lenox avenue at the first camouflaged bounty points opened in Harlem the officers arrested Max Sugel of 2023 Third avenue and Harry Williams of 2023 West 140th street and at 11 p.m on the same day Charlie Lee of 43 West 112th street was the victim. Mac Pumbergers delicatessen at 519 Lee with its street cache in the city beneath the Laredo Tiger Stores at 1906 West 115th street had been at 1156 West 115th street. At 1156 West 115th street there was a burglar at 10:15 am and then a thief and the raid at 10:45 am in the city where were Jones Belgian at 114 West 10th street and Frank Lee at 10:50 West 10th street. The most frustrant of the raids was Places Quickly Reopened the officers of Hyannis town, and the officers of Hampshire town, approximately of gallons of alcohol, including five-10 gallons of alcohol, including five-10 gallons of alcohol, were scaled to those of gallons of hooch, made up of spirits, whisky, port and sherry wine, were scaled to Hyman's bourne parlor, at 340° Servath avenue, and about 50 gallons gotten at another Hyman's hooch joint at 352° Lace averning consisted of 25 gallons of alcohol, the seat being alleged wine, whisky. The first paid to Moe Langer at 519 Lennox avenue, the delicatessen located in the same building as the United Clear, Stones Co., stored twelve-1-2 gallons of illfelt lime, 25 gallons of alcohol included. The second will by the officers in the same place made next morning, 10 gallons more of alcohol, with an amortized quantity of alfège gin and wine. Those acquainted with processes of the bootleggers' activities, say that the places at which alcohol was found are the places at which the vanfoss hooch concoctions are prepared. I have the same basis of denatured al-hooch, in most cases, as little pure grain alcohol is used. Extracts of various sorts are used for the different varieties, all of the hooch being synthetic preparations, prepared without distillation of any sort. Gilber Raida and Arrests. Other vaids and arrests on Friday included the following: detailed the following: 432 Lenox avenue (Hyman), arrested Theo. Wilson of 21 West 133rd 街 456 Lenox avenue (Louil), arrested Saint Sigel of 279 East Houston street 557 Lenox avenue (Louil), arrested Saint Samir of 142 Broome street 456 Lenox avenue (Hyman), arrested Makayla Lenox of 204 Davidson street 69 West 138th street, arrested Lenox Elysée, arrested Samuel Hyman of 505 Lenox avenue 2153 Fifth avenue, arrested Lewis Place of 165 Amaterdam avenue and Daniel Reda of 2153 Fifth avenue, with three 5-gallon cans of alcohol, and 10 gallons of alleged whiskey and gin. 2467 Seventh avenue (Hyman), arrested Jake Joseph of 342 West 43rd street. During the progress of these raids, Federal Agent Harvey arrested Sampe-Prince of 2245 Seventh avenue on the charge of isolating the agent a plist of whiskey. Another outcroping was the arrest of three men found in possession of policy slips. They were Frank Walters of 53 East 135th street, John Jones of 2 West 136th street, and Andrew Garcey of 309 West 148th street. Twenty-sine hooch joints are now padlocked under orders of Federal Judge Knox has follows: FIFTH AVENUE EIGHTH AVENUE 2490, closed for four months, March 11 2527, closed for six months, March 5 2654, closed for four months, March 20 2657, closed for four months, March 20 2819, case dismissed Feb 21 2009, closed for one year, March 14 2009, closed for one year, March 6 2911, bar and fixtures ordered removed personal injunction issued March 11 Places Still Open. A revision of the list of places in Harlem where hooch in its various forms can be secured without stint, and with varying degrees of freedom, shows 69 in operation, and it is known that the list is not complete. These 69 points are located on several of the cross streets from 132nd to 144th, and on Lenox, Seventh and Eighth avenues. They are as follows: 168 West 132nd street 73 West 135th street 101a West 136th street 69 West 138th street 200 West 144th street 201 West 144th street.

C. On March 31, the House adopted a resolution authorizing the Committee on Elections No. 1 to fund the armies at arms to New York to obtain certain ballots that are in dispute in the election contests from the time between royal H. Weller, Democrat, and Martin C. Ansorge Republican. The resolution was adopted at the instance of the committee, of which Representative Cole, of Ohio, is chairman. The purpose is to enable the Committee on Elections to complete the re-ount in the Weller-Ansorge contest. Eight hundred and twenty ballots will be brought to Washington. The situation is looked on here as favrable for the seating of Ansorge Weller was seated in the first place, and was credited in the official figures with a lead of 340 votes over Ansorge On the recount thus far, however, Ansorge in the lead by 153 votes.

William Hayward, United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, is continuing his campaign of education in the matter of enforcement of the Volstead Law, and at the same time is directing the fight against the bootleggers with the same energy and resourcefulness he displayed by leading the Old 15th New York against the Hindenburg Line in France. In an address before the Young Folks League of the Congregaton Chab Zedek at the Hotel Ansonia on the evening of March 26, Col. Hayward declared that respectable citizens are becoming accomplices of criminals through their dealing bootleggers. Every client who purchases alcohol lives from a bootleger becomes an accessory to a crime, declared the official, by giving the criminal immunity, hiring them to commit forgery, robbery, bribery or perjury, and rewarding them to obtain liquor Most Americans, he declared, have become violators of the law and the tendency is increasing. Col. Hayward said his experience as United States Attorney, and as a lawyer, convinced him that the Prohibition law is economically good for the country, although he did not deny that he took an occasional drink in the days before prohibition. "No law, however, is too good or too important not to be changed, if it is changed by orderly process of a free people, operating under their own Constitution," said he. "And no man or woman is too good not to obey that law as long as it is on the statute books." The United States Attorney's office has become interested in discovering the source of distribution for a new publication, "The Bootleggers' New," which appeared clandestinely upon the water front a few weeks ago. The publication is frankly devoted to the interests of the rum amugging and bootlegging world, and purports to give a list of available liquors, preamably on rum row, twelve miles out, with prices attached. Copies are exhibited by incoming passengers on trans-Atlantic liners, but it was not disclosed as to where the papers were secured. Col. Hayward, examining a copy of, "The Bootleggers' News," declared its publication a violation of the Volstead Law, and that an effort would be made to determine where, and by whom, the paper is published. HARLEM JENANTS HAILED TO COUNT BY LANDLORDS FIND CHIEF CLERK HANN A FRIEND stead of thinking that they understand the decision of the judge An example of this latter character was described by another clerk in this court. He told of a tenant who had been in court all day and whose case was postponed. He casually asked her the new date and she answered that it was April 1, but for some reason she was mistaken and looked up the papers, which showed that the case had been postponed to April 7. This tenant would probably have come into court on the first and not being called, would have gone away thinking the case had been dismissed. Then, when coming to trial on the seventh, the landlord would have gotten a dispossess by default In June Mr Hahn will celebrate his twenty-four years with the government District Court. He started a government advertising when this court was first established in 1896 and worked his way up to interpreter, assistant clerk, deputy clerk, and in 1922 was appointed chief clerk. Except for four years during the war, he was when he was tax commissioner, he has been connected with this court throughput in his history. He was born and raised in this position of the city and has been prominent in politics from his early manhood. He is now the Republican leader of the 10th Assembly District, which includes a part of the colored section of Harlem, and has shown a disposition to be fair to his colored constituents. Recently he gave recognition to the colored voters of the district by selecting Mrs. Christine Maura as an alternate delegate to the Republican National Convention in Cleveland. He is one of the most useful men in the Seventh District Court. $500,000 IS BEING RAISED FOR HOWARD SCHOOL OF RELIGION $500,000 IS BEING RAISED FOR HOWARD SCHOOL OF RELIGION Bishop J.

Eligibility involves so honorable discharge or a continuance in service. The first form of application, for living soldiers, calls for replies to twenty-main questions and several subordinate questions. For the incompetent soldier his commission will be thirty-two questions, while hers of the dead soldiers must reply to thirty-four questions. All applications must be prepared by typewriter. A certified or photostatic copy of the discharge must accompany the application. Objectors Are Barred. One question asks whether the soldier while in service refused, on conscientious or political grounds, to subject himself to military discipline or to render unqualified service. Such applicants are not entitled to a bonus. If wounded the soldier is asked to supply dates of the battles and to give details regarding the nature of the wound and extent of disability. Applications must be mailed to the New York Soldiers' Bonus Bureau, at Albany Payments will be made by check through the mails. No agent, attorney or other person named is entitled to receive the compensation in place of the soldier. Any pledge, mortgage, sale, assignment or transfer of the bonus, in advance of its having been made, shall be deemed old. The soldier will be paid in a lump sum and not in monthly installments. Any notary public, commissioner of deeds, justice of the peace is qualified to certify to the papers involved. Soldiers who enlisted from this state but are now resident elsewhere should make application direct in Albany, stating the branch of service in which they were enrolled. In case of a lost discharge the former soldier should address the adjutant general at Washington, requesting a certificate in lieu of lost discharge. Those who served in the navy and have lost their discharge papers should address the Bureau of Navigation at Washington, while those formerly in the marines should address Manne Corps headquarters at the capital.

Beautiful Girl Reveals Secret Once my hair was anything but long and silky soft as it is now, and my complexion was sallow, and there were often unisightly pimples on my face. One day I heard of Exelento quinine applied to the hair and purchased a jar. Almost immediately it stopped all dandruff, made my hair grow long, soft and fine, and gave it a delightful sheen. Because of the perfectly wonderful results I obtained from Exelento Quinine Pomeade, I purchased a skin treatment. It changed my sallow complexion to a clear, lovely skin, glowing with health. For pimples and other skin blemishes, it has no equal. If I am as beautiful as people say, it is all due to Exelento preparations. Exelento Quinine Pomeade and Exelento Pomeade may be essential for only 2% at most drug stores, or will be sent postpaid upon receipt of price by the EXELENTO MEDIGINE CO., Atlanta, Ga.

J.—The good effects of the recent revivalistic campaign in the 13th Avenue Church were seen to great advantage in the splendid services held at this church last Sunday. The congregations which greeted Dr. Ellerson, the pastor, at both services were unusually large and enthusiastic in the worship throughout the day. Dr. Elerson was a lover of food from the subject: "When The Church takes as his text Acts, 4:31-32. The burden of the message was the intercessory prayer lies at the foundation of that much wanted leadership which the Church of Christ need to assume and set forth in the perilous times through which we are now passing. The pastor took as the theme of the evening discourse: "Giving Attention To Things Which We Have Heard." The things which the music was up to the usual high standard and thus passed another beautiful Sabbath day's services in the life of this church and its people. Attention is now turned to the approaching Easter season. The pastor, officers and members are uniting their forces to make the coming Easter one of the most helpful Easter seasons the church has experienced.

And no man or woman is too good not to obey that law if long as it is on the statute books. PADLOCKS FOR BOOTLEGOERS. In the process of cleaning up Harlem, patrons have proved the most effective device for curbing the activities of the bootleggers' infiltration. Not that the padlocks are made personal attachment, although that might be effective with shackles combined, but they are placed on the premises where the hooch has been sold for a certain price named by the Federal courts. This does not prevent the bootleger from finding another place to do business, but it keeps him moving and detracts from the volume of his established trade. Up to last Saturday some twenty-nine hooch joints had been padlocked under onions from Judge Knox of the Federal Court periods running from four months to one year. These places were located on Fifth Knox, Seventh and Eighth avenues. A list of the places still open showed some sixty eight joints in operation and the list was not complete. These places are located on the streets from 132nd to 144th, as well as the avenues. The cleaning up of Harlem is progressing slowly and is bound to be a long and arduous proceeding. Nevertheless The Age reason to feel encouraged by various situations that its efforts in this direction of the been fruitless. A significant proof this was the conference of police officials with the members of the Interdenomination-Preachers meeting held at First Emmanuel Church March 24. Inspector McDonald is questioned by the ministers on all phases the vice situation in Harlem, including such, housing conditions, cabarets, dirty sets, pistol toting, numbers playing, stabbing and robbery. The police official made a good impression upon the clergymen invited their fullest cooperation in abathe these evils, promising to assist them to full extent of his power. The fact that a joint conference of the two principal preachers' organizations of the city called for this week is significant of their termination to cooperate in the enforcement of law and order. With the preachers operating with the police and the Federal patlocking the hooch joints, there are signs of visible progress in the task of cleanup Harlem. Of course graft has not been fully eliminated among the officers charged with the enforcement of prohibition and many agents of the law are engaged in helping bootleggers of projected raids. If leaks were stopped and the unreliable items dropped from the service enforcement would be more effective. The hooch joints and bootleggers should put out of business and the moral and moral poisoning of the community stopped short order. If padlocks will help to this the use of padlocks should be multiplied. PADLOCKS FOR BOOTLEGGERS.

Nevertheless The Age has reason to feel encouraged by various indications that its efforts in this direction have not been fruitless.

HOUSING AND CHURCHES the statements that there are fifty thousand-colored people in Brooklyn who do not hold church and that the housing condition of the majority of the race in the bar are deplorable have aroused considerable comment among those conversant affairs in that section of Greater New. The first statement was made by the secretary of the Brooklyn Federation churches and the second by an officer Brooklyn Bureau of Churches. The statements that there are fifty thousand colored people in Brooklyn who do not attend church and that the housing conditions of the majority of the race in theorough are deplorable have aroused considerable comment among those conversant with affairs in that section of Greater New York. The first statement was made by the white secretary of the Brooklyn Federation of Churches and the second by an officer of the Brooklyn Bureau of Charities. It remained however for a pastor of one of the colored churches Dr Henry Hugh Proctor of Nazarene Congregational Church, to cap the climax by acquiescing in these statements and adding ten thousand to the figures given. These statements, especially that credited to Dr Proctor have aroused deep resentment and vigorous protest among the residents of the race in Brooklyn. They point out that the total number of colored people in Brooklyn does not exceed sixty thousand at best. There are a dozen or more churches possessing a goodly membership, and having large congregations pres- eat every Sunday. Than Bloodylyn is noted as the borough of homey wynter, most of whom are scattered in various blochs throughout the city. There are two or three subregulated districts, where the race is gath-ed to the excluialion of other nationalities, but these are exceptional. The two white investigators who have probably come in contact only, with the less fortunate portion of the race, whose housing conditions may have been deplorable and their church affiliations non-existent, may be excused on the ground of ignorance that there was any other side to race conditions. But Dr. Proctor should have known better and had the moral courage to state the facts instead of adding to the misstatement. He has been in Brooklyn long enough to learn about its people and institutions, or is his vision bounded by his work among the lowly and unfortunate? If so, this condition is more creditable to his heart than to his head. He should not let the sorrid side of existence blind him to the many blessings of good homes and religious facilities enjoyed by the race in Brooklyn. It should be the aim of the ministers to extend these blessings to as many as possible, not to deny their existence. Exaggeration and overstatement are dangerous weapons even in a good cause. They may stimulate cash contributions at the outset, but a reaction will set in when the true conditions are set forth. INVESTIGATION RUN WILD The National Capital has been for several weeks the scene of investigation run wild and political leadership gone wrong. The Senate investigating committee, under Democratic leadership, after eliciting some pertinent testimony relating to the leases of oil lands to the Doheny and Sindlair companies, the Doheny loan to ex-Secretary Fall and the retainer of ex-Secretary McAdoo, seems to have embarked upon a general muckraking expedition. Witnesses of doubtful character, indicted for criminal offences, bootleggers, a former train robber and "fixers" of all sorts, have been called to rehash hearsey testimony that would not be accepted as competent evidence in any court of justice. The Republicans have proved themselves panic stricken and bankrupt of leadership in that they have allowed such a stream of slander and gossip to proceed without question. The Democratic hope seems to be by this general beirarching of reputations to kill off as many Republican candidates as possible and generally to discredit the party in power, in the Presidential campaign. Two Republicans at least have managed to keep their heads in this serious condition of panic and lack of leadership. President Coolidge has maintained his poise from the moment he rebuked the Senate for requesting the resignation of Secretary-Denby until in his own good time and for reasons that appeared sufficient to him he asked for the resignation of Attorney General Daugherty. The other Republican who maintained a dignified attitude of courage and determination was Mr. Daugherty himself. A shining mark since his appointment by President Harding for detractors and slanderers, he has made too many enemies by his prosecution of war frauds. That the flood of slander and abuse turned upon him through the committee's hearing contained no competent testimony as to his misconduct of his office is reassuring to those who know and admire him. The war and prohibition afforded unlimited opportunity for graft and frauds against the government under both Democratic and Republican administrations The perpetrators of these frauds who have felt the probe of the Department of Justice will welcome Mr. Daugherty's retirement. His successor will need an equal degree of bulldog courage and pertinacity to grapple with the situation. As to the oil investigation, the special counsel appointed by President Coolidge will have to test the validity of the leases in court and have it determined as to whether corruption entered into their making. In the meantime the Senate investigating committee should stop running wild and Republican leaders should get a grip on their courage again. SOUTHERN HYSTERIA: AND HUMOR SOUTHERN HYSTERIA AND HUMOR The Age has not been enthusiastic over the idea of presenting "All God's Chillun' Got Wings" with a mixed cast, believing the lynching of the play by the daily press before given a fair and impartial hearing would unnecessarily arouse racial antagonism, and that sensational publicity would do more harm than good. No one, however, should question the right of Mr O'Neill to produce for public entertainment "All God's Chillun' Got Wings" after recalling the unusual privileges accorded Mr Griffith in face of emphatic and continuous protest against the exhibition of that breeder of race hatreds—"The Birth of a Nation." The present controversy has given local white writers an opportunity to discuss the subject of miscegenation from various angles. Those most hysterical and who argue by abusing the Negro usually are of Southern birth and from a section where the white man has done very little to uphold the ethnic integrity of the two races. We are treated with the plush spectacle of James A. Sinnott, of the New York Morning Telegraph, born in Virginia, indulging in expressions of sinninity, which would be comical if he did not take himself so seriously. Norna also does. Mr. Sinnott does not seem to know that the day of the anti-Negro propagandist in New York is past. Some good friend should take him aside and give him a bit of wholesome advice. Irvin S. Cobb, the humourist, has been in New York long enough to know the professional Southerner is no longer personal grats in the Metropolis. He comes from Puducah, Ky., where mulattoes abound. He does not rave as some of his fellow Southerners. He waxes facetious. Discussing "All God's Chillun' Got Wings" the humourist dismisses the subject, according to Burns Mantle, dramatic critic of the Dally News, with the retort: "Well, they'll need 'em (wings) if they play in my town, Puducah, Ky." But would they not need 'em, we ask Mr. Cobb, in the churches, on the street care railroad trains and in railroad stations? For do not tradition and law prescribe against the mixing of races in this provincial town even in worshiping God; and even with Jim-Crow laws operative is there not unmistakable evidence of mixing on every hand? What's funny about such a superficial and incongruous situation, Mr. Cobb. HOPE FOR MISSISSIPPI The Nation, widely recognized as a progressive organ of liberal sentiment, issued of April 2, announced its opinion there is hope for Mississippi, despite state of civilization described there article by Beulah Amidon Ratliff, nearly years ago. This belief was based on the dictum that many things may be amiss in a country, but if its citizens are willing to adhere even listen to a description of their life, they are on the high road to reform. Occasion of this hearing was the protection of a memorial to the Legislature of Mississippi by a delegation of colored men by Dr. R. S. Redmond. This memorial discussed the status of the Negro state and made a number of clear demands, was pronounced "one of the complete and searching and damning elements of its civilization that could be beaten against any State." The Nation thinks that the fact that delegation were listened to with respect honestly and fully reported in the prior reason for encouragement. The men described the menace of mob violence, synch law and the need of a guaranty of national security and impartial law enforcement. It protested against the unequal illegal distribution of funds for education between the races. The memorial asked for reformatory for delinquent colored children who are now thrown in prison with the criminals; it described the helpless nation of the Negro tenant farmer; it ported the desperate need of caring for tuberculosis; it protested against the indiscrete accommodations in Jim Crow states in the State. The Nation does not agree with the expression of the memorial which profiled a abiding faith in the "lofty sense of peace and relief" of the Mississippi Legislature and in its readiness to provide justice. Still it believes that something is done to hurry the processes of civilization in Mississippi. Its ground for hope in these facts: "A group of Negroes has found articulate and courageous enough since its wrongs: a white legislature listened to some unpleasant home truths; Mississippi is not made a fit dwelling place; colored men and women they will lead the economic life of the State will lose." In the Age of February 16, we refer to Mississippi's new Governor, who inaugurated address, made a strong plea, square deal for the Negro in business and in the courts. Governor Wade also pronounced against mob violence called upon all law enforcing officers, lynching. We regarded this delivery as a sign of better days for Mississippi, were disappointed to hear that the Governor was severely criticized by some of constituents for being so outspoken. Nevertheless we believe with the Nation there is hope for Mississippi, so long as has a Governor and a legislature wize that there are wrongs against the governor that should be righted. The Nation, widely recognized as a progressive organ of liberal sentiment, in its issue of April 2, announced its opinion that there is hope for Mississippi, despite the state of civilization described there in an article by Beulah Amidon Ratliff, nearly two years ago. This belief was based on the dictum that many things may be amiss in a community, but if its citizens are willing to admit or even listen to a description of their faults, they are on the high road to reform. The occasion of this hearing was the presentation of a memorial to the Legislature of Mississippi by a delegation of colored men led by Dr. R. S. Redmond. This memorial which discussed the status of the Negro in the State and made a number of clear-cut demands, was pronounced "one of the most complete and searching and damning indictments of its civilization that could be leveled against any State." The Nation thinks that the fact that the delegation were listened to with respect and honestly and fully reported in the press is a reason for encouragement. The memorial described the menace of mob violence and lynch law and the need of a guaranty of personal security and impartial law enforcement. It protested against the unequal and illegal distribution of funds for education between the races. The memorial asked for a reformatory for delinquent colored children, who are now thrown in prison with adult criminals; it described the helpless situation of the Negro tenant farmer; it pointed out the desperate need of caring for tubercular Negroes; it protested against the illegal and indecent accommodations in Jim Crow cars in the State. The Nation does not agree with the final expression of the memorial which professed an abiding faith in the "lofty sense of justice and relief" of the Mississippi Legislature and in its readiness to provide justice and relief. Still it believes that something may be done to hurry the processes of civilization in Mississippi. Its ground for hope lies in these facts: "A group of Negroes has been found articulate and courageous enough to voice its wrongs; a white legislature has listened to some unpleasant home truths, if Mississippi is not made a fit dwelling place for colored men and women they will leave, and the economic life of the State will collapse." In The Age of February 16, we referred to Mississippi's new Governor, who in his inaugural address, made a strong plea for a square deal for the Negro in business relations and in the courts. Governor Whit field also pronounced against mob violence and called upon all law enforcing officers to prevent lynching. We regarded this deliverance as a sign of better days for Mississippi, but were disappointed to hear that the Governor was severely criticised by some of his constituents for being so outspoken. Nevertheless we believe with the Nation that there is hope for Mississippi, so long as it has a Governor and a legislature who realize that there are wrongs against the Negro that should be righted ATTACKING HIGH FINANCE the repeated attacks made by the Chicago cap and a few other papers on Mr H. E Perry and the financial institution which he is identified, have been marked such violence and venom as to arouse action as to the motives underlying the results. Nevertheless the statements made the issue of the Whip dated March 1 so specific and circumstantial as to did impartial investigation and decide futures to refute them if without found The repeated attacks made by the Chicago Whip and a few other papers on Mr Herman E Perry and the financial institutions with which he is identified, have been marked by such violence and venom as to arouse suspicion as to the motives underlying these assaults. Nevertheless the statements made in the issue of the Whip dated March 29 are so specific and circumstantial as to demand impartial investigation and decided measures to refute them if without foundation. The article referred to is by a special correspondent at Atlanta, Ga. and covers over three columns dealing in detail with the Comments By The Age Editors On Sayings of Other Editors Comments By The Age Editors On Sayings of Other Editors standard Life Insurance Company and the other enterprises promoted, by Mr. Barry. According to this correspondent the insurance company has been used to bolster up other enterprises and its funds diverted for other purposes. It is charged that the company has had seven treasurers in ten years, all of whom disagreed as to his use of the company's funds. These are serious charges to be published concerning any financial institution and especially an insurance company. And yet it is to be recalled that similar charges were not only made but proved involving the largest companies in New York some years ago. It required a legislative investigating committee, with the present Secretary of State as counsel, to bring out the facts, but the result was a general house cleaning and a few resignations among the insurance heads. In The Age of March we printed as an advertisement an abstract from the annual report of the Standard Life Insurance According to the Topteka Plaindeerster, the colored Republicans of Kansas were not wholly pleased with the outcome of the State Republican Convention. It said: The Dave Mulvane machine was in control and it certainly wrecked everybody who were in the way or belonged to the colored race. The machine seems have been built for one special purpose, to down anything that looked like colored ools. One all of David's twelve years as Nation Committeeman he never was known to favor the colored Republicans for anything. He is what is known as a Lily White. The colored voters ask for a delegate at large, out of seven. Just as well asked Gabriel to come down and blow the last call. Congressman Polly allinch of the Seventh District came over his from Washington to preside over the machine, help David run the machine, coming from the house was plenty of good lubricating oil. He thought David's machine would need some. Out of the 1,053 delegates that composed the convention, about twenty-one were colored, but not one was named on a committee. The two members of the race who were made alternates to the Cleveland convention, said the *Poindealer*, "do not represent the colored voters or have their endorsement." The Baltimore Afro-American printed a thrilling news story about the rescue of four fishermen from certain death in the raging waters of Pamlico Sound, as told by Captain Midgett of Manteo, one of the survivors. It said The story has especial significance because Captain Midgett is a coast and veteran of forty years service and because he was saved by Captain Ed Pruden and six colored men from the Penn island station, the only all-colored coast guard unit in the United States. Captain Pruden enlisted in the Coast Guard nine years ago. He made his way up rapidly in the station, and three years ago was placed in charge. Since the successive retirement of several of his men, his station has never been fully commissioned, but has been supplied with substitutes, perhaps because it is near Negro station in Ambergris Pruden, himself, although in command, has never received his warrants as a boat-sawman, having been overlooked by the department to date. His men are B Wesley six years M M Berry, five years; Noah P Meekins five years, Lonnie C Gray five years, Clafence Pigford temporary surfman, and Wm Simmons and John Pigford substitutes. The United States Coast Guard is a branch of the service but little known, because it is usually located at isolated stations, where its services are needed in case of shipwreck. It is a service, however that calls for courage and its records are full of deeds of heroism. The men of the Penn Island Station evidently measured up to this exacting standard. The Norfolk Journal and Guide, in discussing the confirmation of Walter L. Cohen by the Senate, said among other things We have always had the glad hand and frozen heart when there is an Ohio man in the White House Hayes, Garald Tidt Harding—may we have more in the White House the likes of them President Coddage has shown a commendable disposition to give the race a square deal as partners and as citizens. He recognizes that we are members of the Republican party as well as citizens of the United States and that is great gain. If he keeps on in the way he has gone and if he shall be convinced as President in the voting next November we may recover under him much that we lost under the effort we have named. Let us hope so. This is rather hard on the Presidents from Ohio. Although it is probably true of all of them except President Taft. In the Oleh case it is well to hear in mind that the notes of two Democrats, Senators Walsh and Ashurst beside the Farmer Labor Senate Shuttle, were necessary to condemn him. Whole President Coolidge stood for the square deal several weakened Republican Senators fell by the wayside. Company, which showed insurance in force amounting to $28,823,231. The gross assets were given as $2,753,842.47 and total liabilities of $2,253,249.97. The surplus to policy holders was figured at $401,786.36. This report was stated to have been approved by the Insurance Department of the State of Georgia and the facts and figures carefully scrutinized by the examiners of that department. These figures show that the interests at stake are too large and affect too many policy holders to be jeopardized by mismanagement by insiders or by malicious slander by outsiders. At the time this advertisement was published in the Age space was afforded to Mr. Perry for a signed statement in reply to the charges then made affecting the company, but for some reason it was not accepted. The need for a full and searching investigation of the insurance company and its allied organizations by competent authority is apparent. According to the Cincinnati Union Col. William Cooper Procter of the Procter and Gamble Company has been sued in the Common Pleas Court of Cincinnati for the sum of $3,584 by the proptetor of a Chicago hotel, for lodging, "accommodation and entertainment" of 97 members of the "colored Southern delegation" to the national convention. On behalf of Col. Procter it was stated that he never entered into any contract to pay the hotel bill of any of the Southern delegates, and he knows nothing about the claim against him. The Union went on to say: "We can hardly believe that Colonel Procter is guilty of making the contract as charged, for two reasons: First, he is in breach of scriptuously exact in his business dealings and integrity is beyond question second, it is said that his lack of fondness for the colonel citizen is so pronounced that we cannot conceive of his being willing to pay for their board and lodging, even to elec Editor Dainney of the Union endeavored to find out why no colored people were employed in the Procter and Gamble plant, but no reasons were assigned for it, although during the war when labor was scarce, he heard some were employed temporarily in certain lines of work. Still, "the Colonel is a good Republican, according to present day standards," concluded the Union editor A news letter from Tampa, Florida, printed in the Pittsburgh American announced that the Knights of Pythas of Florida had authorized the painting of a life size portrait of the grand chancellor of the order for the auditorium of the new Pythian building at Jacksonville, which was erected at a cost of $250,000. These details were given as to the portrait: The painting will be unveiled with fitting ceremonies at the meeting of the Grand Lodge next May. The work is being executed from life by the nationally known colored painter, John Henry Adams, for which he will reap the sum of five thousand dollars. If this lavish expenditure is regarded as a contribution for the promotion of the fine arts, it might be justified but such portraits rarely mere expectations. The painter is to be congratulated on his commission, while the members of the order may reflect on the wisdom of their action. The prophetic editor of the Star of Zion sees ahead a fight looming on dancing and declares that no one can defend it as conducted today who has a keen sense of piety and Christian morals. He continued The fight that looms on dancers in the Protestant Church and which even some Catholic priests are turning by placing the ban upon it in their parishes is significant of the awakening consciousness upon its incessant exertion by society. The result of these trans it has lost its influence in the generation until our spirituality is at most paralyzed and our efforts at personal work in our saying shut off where we have a right most to expect positive and active assistance. The trouble with such denunciations of dancing as conducted today is that the critics do not suggest a way to eliminate the evils and preserve the good features that may be found in dancing as an exercise and a diversion. The only effect of such sweeping denunciation and banning of dancing by church members is to drive many young people out of the church. A better way may be found to deal with this question of dancing. Petition for probate of the will of the late former President Woodrow W. Wilson filed March 28 by L. Woold shows an estimated value of the estate to be $250,000.

HERBEN Of the New York Tuberculosis Association A Word to the Wife Is Sufficient. This is the season when the housewives get some kind of urge to start them on the rampage as a similar to the rith that the little girl on his shoulders, and the most naughty as knew he was tying off to Kennington Gardens. The difference is that the woman who sees this way stays where she is not feels that men of the family who my off. Men can't abide home cleaning. Whether that they sense of order (save the man) fended, or that they abhor things not 'the same as they always were', or because the lady of the house is as cross as two sticks, I shall not venture to glue. However, what does all this matter so long as the housewife gets after the dinner, the men will get over their discomfort and the women will finish the task in time and then life will go on so serenely no apparent change except that the house will look pitted and there will pervade through out the rooms a delicious smell of cedar and clean things. There is nothing so expensive as dirt—the old saying to the contrary notwithstanding! Disease germs, disease-carrying insects and crawling creatures, and many evil lurk in dirt corners. Flies thrive in dirt and they corners. Shorts of disaster-causing portions of food around with them, to leave on them on food's baby's hand, upon cups and other utensils. Moths, mice and misery are drawn to unclean places as surely as the magnet draws to itself the steel. The word "hygiene" means the sentence of sanitation or cleanliness and it is not for nothing that it appears so often with the words "public health" get prevention of disease." They bring one another as do the day and night, but preventing disease and epidemics of infection, the first requisite is cleanliness. Tuberculosis is more prevalent in the congested districts where there are no adequate facilities for cleanliness. Where water is hard to get, there is naturally going to be less of it used. In rooms into which sunlight rays or never shines, and where there is twilight at high noon, there is lost the germicidal action of the sun's rays dirty corners escape notice. Dark hallways harbor many a dirt pile, small to be by millions of bacteria can live in a few sheets of fifth. Other dangerous infections may be spread from these places and from backwards in, which are scattered refuse of an softs Let the housewife see to it that your own home is clean and then let her take notice of the surroundings of his wife's home. The housewife as save her loved ones from danger of disease if she has a big vision of her opportunities. A word to the writer is sufficient.

Lake is: The speaker said is past: This parable differs from many others which the Master spoke in that its meaning and purpose is announced in the beginning. Its intention and design is not so much to instruct as it is to goGuage it to join the habit of prayer. In matters in prayer is world wide today. There are more praying Saints; sagte; more books are being written; more sermons preached. Lean is a time of real prayer, not alitply, formal prayers. To have daily conjunction will God, our Unseen Friend. We could not make a better vow than that we would wish very close to God, talk to Him often and to mediate upon the meaning of living in His presence during these forty days. We need this quiet retreat. He referred to the attitude of Solomon at the time that he was elevated by jehovah to the kingship over Israel.

Wonderful sermons were preached by Pastor Bolden at both the morning and evening services. In the morning he preached from "For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean sanctifeth to the purifying of the flesh, how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works from the living God?" Hebrews 9:13. Pastor Bolden said his theme was "God seen in certain signs and symbols." Very little attention is paid day-by-day by people in general to deep, educational and spiritual things. The mind does not seem to tend towards that way. Little attention, if any, is paid to spiritual development, except by a few thoughtful people. This should not be so. Principles and doctrines of God can only thrive as the truth propagated to the people, newspapers in general, and specifically the coloured press, propagate scandal. Let those men who are Christians propagate love, peace and goodwill. The Catholic church is the greatest institution of learning. No wonder it is so, they carry their truth and doctrines all over the world, they continually making more of them. They train the children in more of the future church. We must begin to train our children in the doctrine of our several books. Jesus himself was taught and taught the doctrines of the Jews. He knew all the signs and symbols of the Jewish order. One symbol is water. Water is a precious thing. This is illustrated by John who baptized Jesus in the River Jordan. Jesus is the water of life. Water is an important factor in the life of an individual. Ashes is another symbol. This symbol was used to cleanse from sin, and for repentance. The early Christians made a sign of a cross in their forehead, and this was done so that the Christians would know each other. We are told that in the beginning God was made in the image of God. Since God is the great image therefore would be a spirit God is a finite Mind. Hence man in his image possessed a mind with a similar attribute. With his free will and imaginative and inquisitive sense he disobeyed the orders of God, with his crossed God's will. The result was confessional of physical qualities and right action was perceived. This physical man in the form of a cross was a symbol of the moral and spiritual man who had crossed the mind and rather, realizing the�wills, I am condition of man and knowing the glories that awaited the perfect obedient man leaves the box of His father and descends by master's process d.w. into an embroidery human cell, into the womb of Mars, inereconceived by the Holy Ghost and born of this Virgin. He our God the Emancipated Man, grew up incarnated in the body of man, who is the sign of the leg, nominally cross that is made glorious and immortal by our Lord Jesus Christ Water, Blood, Ashes and the Cross are signs and symbols through which the may behold God, with deep adoration. The pomised Comforter, Helper and Teacher, the Holy Ghost, whom our Lord has sent to humanity in His Name will awaken our minds and make us see that the blood of our Lord the Emmanuel purges our conscience from dead works to serve the living God. The Sunday school was opened at 3:30 c.m. on the first of the first year. Most North Asia. At 4:30 the Literary Society convened. Miss Feasleth Frazer had charged the program with the children.

Church shall few exceptions, is rejoicing over the return for another year of their pastor, the Rev Thomas W. Cooper, who shall back Monday night, March 31, from the annual session of the Delaware Conference, which met in Philadelphia last week. This brings the fourth year of Rev. Cooper's pastorite. He has done more for the development of Newman than any previous pastor, and especially was this true during the past year. Although the membership is one, it is considerably larger than when he came to Bropkin and the first pastor at a circuit of the Masters Kingdom is more greatly in evidence. In this work the pastor has been given invaluable assistance by his wife, Mrs. Estelle Cooper an educated, cultured and consecrated woman, whose aim and desire has been for the good of all with whom she has come in contact. In the absence of the pastor, Rev. READ THE FURNISHED ROOMS ADD. P.8 PRIORITY SPORT COMMENT By WILLIAM E. CLARK Harry Wills Signed For Two Bouts, One With the Champion, Jack Dempsey After a wait of nearly four years, Harry Wills will be given a chance to fight Jack Dempsey for the heavyweight championship of the world, if the contract signed with Tex Rickard on March 20 is carried out. This contract provides that Wills, is to meet Luis Firpo, who came near knocking Dempsey out last year, or one or two other heavyweights if Rickard cannot get Firpo to accept the bout. The other heavyweights mentioned are MRmero Rojas of Chile and Ermino Spalla, heavyweight champion of Italy, who recently lasted fourteen rounds with Firpo. The test bout is to be held sometime in June at Boyle's Thirty Acres, Jersey City, N. J. Should Wills be successful in defeating his opponent on this occasion, he will be matched to fight the champion on Labor Day; also in Jersey City. A concession to Mullins was made in providing that Wills should fight on a percentage basis and not a flat sum, as it was first provided. Although there has been much talk of a Dempsey-Wills bout in New York or vicinity for the past three or four years, this is the first sincere effort Rickard has made to stage this contest. As he is the dominant promoter of the country it has been thought all along that he could stage the bout without any trouble if he so desired. In sporting, circles it is generally stated that the real reason that Rickard did not offer to promote this bout earlier was that he was by no means certain that Dempsey could defeat Wills, and that he did not care to promote a second bout if the heavyweight championship passed to a colored man. Recent reports about Wills' hands and his general condition seems to have assured Rickard that Dempsey can now defeat the Brown Panther. But who will win is another question. What the colored people for the country, and fair-minded citizens generally, want is that there should be no color line in boxing. Flowers' Ability and Sportsmanship Won Him Many Friends. Tiger Flowers, middleweight from Atlanta, Ga., won a twelve round decision over Lee Anderson of Boston in his New York debut at the Commonwealth Club, Saturday night, March 29. Although outweighed by ten pounds, Flowers was much the faster and cleverer boxer. He was on his man from the start and kept the offensive throughout the fight. In the third round he cut Anderson under the right eye and in the forth the Boston fighter was dropped with an upper-cut, but was up again before the count could be started The sixth was Anderson's best round However, most of his blows went wilt It was in this round that he used the back hand blow and the rabbit punch so often that he was warned by the referee His fouling throughout the bout made him very unpopular with the fans, who hissed him loudly Flowers' ability and his sportsmanship in the ring won many friends and caused him to receive a popular ovation at the end of the fight He weighs 164 1-2 pounds and Anderson weighed 175 Johnny Gardner of Philadelphia scored his second knockout and third victory in his three appearances in New York in his first knockout out Andy Roddick of the Browns, the fifth of the scheduled twelve round semifinal Gardner is one of the best colored fighters in the game and gives promise of going far in the lightweight division, which offers plenty of opportunity to colored fight. He weighs 131 3-4 pounds and Lucker weighed 134. Henry Shaw, 151 14 pounds, scored a victory over Jack Tillyou of the West Side in the six round preliminary bout Kid Norfolk to Fight Harry Greb in Boston Announcement was made last week that Kid Norfolk, colored light heavyweight champion, would fight Harry Greb at the Faneuil A C. Boston, Madis, on Friday evening, April 4. More than two years ago, before Greb became light heavyweight or middleweight champion, he fought Kid Norfolk-in. Pittsburgh, and although most of his opponents were Greb de Jalison, Norfolk has been unable to get a return bout before this time. Norfolk has agreed to make 175 pounds for the bout, and even though no title is at stake, fight fans are keenly interested in the outcome Hampton Basketball Men Are Given 1924 Insignia Hampton, Va.-Hampton Institute has awarded the basketball insignia to the following members of the 1924 team: Jimius T.

Lhambright Jr. Kansas City, Kans, and Ernest L. Simmons, Gruswick, Ga. Wilson and Kenyon Lead 'at Bat With 3 Hits Each —Team Much Improved. The Lincoln Giants opened the baseball season in the Bronx on Sunday afternoon, March 30, by winning a 5-4 victory over the Hipward nine of Brooklyn. The game went ten innings and both teams showed good form for so early in the season. It is too early to say that the Lincoln Giants have a great team this season, but they are playing with a new spirit this season and there is much more team work than heretofore. Captain Gans allowed three of his pitchers to workout during the game Sunday Dave Brown started the game and did not allow a hit for four innings. Holland took his place in the fifth innning and allowed four runs by the end of the seventh The Lincoln had gained three runs before the fourth inning and made one in the seventh, which tied the score. Neither side was able to score again until the tenth inning, although Gee got a bit in the ninth, which or dinarily would have been a home run ball was driven far into the left field and the fielder by a sensational catch got the ball; it was about to go over the fence. With two men out in the tenth inning, Marcel scored a single and stole second Wilson came out next and hit a grounder across second base. The second baseman fumbled the ball, which made Wilson safe at first and enabled Marcel to get home with the winning run. There were many new faces in the Lincoln lineup. Among them them were Williams, formerly of Indiana, who was shortstop and leadoff man Burnett, the same team, Kenson of St. Louis, who with Ben Wilson got three hits during the game. Starks of the Royal Giants and many others. The present lineup of the Lincoln is as follows Williams shortstop, Marcel, third base, Wilson right field, Scales, second base, Kenyon, center field, Hudspeth, first base, Jackson, left field, Gee and Burnett catcher, anad Brown, Holland, Starks, and Chambers, pitcher The score HOWARD R B C AB R H O A E.

MARTIN WIN FIRST PRIZE JUNIOR VIOLIN TEST Little Miss Gertrude E. Martin, violinist, 13 years old, daughter of Mrs Gertrude H. Martin, 139 West 136th street, and the late David E. Martin, founder of the Martin-Smith Music School, won first honors in the contest conducted by the New York Music Week Committee for School District No. 15, held Saturday, March 29, at the Wadleigh High School, 114th street and Seventh avenue. Miss Martin was entered in Class XX, junior violin, for players from 10 to 15 years of age. The entrants were required to play the first movement of the Violin Concerto No. 22. In making a summary of the marks gained by the talented young miss) the judges awarded her an average of 8 per cent, the highest mark attained in her class. The prize, a bronze medal, was consequently won by her and she is eligible to enter the Borough Contest, which will be held as soon as the District Contests are completed, in which contest silver medals will be awarded. Winners in the Borough Contest will meet in the Inter-Borough Competitive Festival which is to be held during the annual New York Music Week. In which in which a gold medal, with possible financial assistance to the extent of tuition and living expenses' for one year. In making the award in the District 15 junior violin test, the judges made the following notation concerning Miss Martin's playing: "Very promising: has good tone, good intenation She plays her fast passages a little too fast; speed is not most important factor. Has fine feeling and she understands the composition. Bowing very good. Should continue serious study. Will hear from her in the future. She has an unusual talent. Mark. 87 per cent." Miss Martin's brother, Eugene Mars Martin, was at the piano while his sister played. Edwin Coates Plays Piano Music at Sunday Recital A splendid audience greeted C. Edwin Coates, pianist, who played a program of piano music appealing to a diversity on interests at the regular monthly Sunday afternoon recital of the Martin-Smith Music School, March 30, at 4.30 o'clock. With deliberate intention, Mr Coates arranged his program in a style that traveled far from the usual paths. And according to the manner in which his offerings were received by the audience, comprising most of the keenly critical musical intelligenza of the community, the arrangement was happily conceived Beethoven's 92 Variations in C minor and Schytte's Sonata in B flat (allegro brioso, intermerozo—moderate en elele, finale—allegro nummero) was played. Differing widely, these two are still consistently orthodox, and they offer a striking contrast to the group which followed Claire de lune (Debussy), Oiseaux tristes (Ravel), Bear Dance (Bartok), Scherzinger, early style and A la Chinois, late style (Ornstein). The final group was made up of interesting compositions representing both modern and ancient schools. The numbers were Chopin's Ballade in G minor, Dett's Magnolia Suite a Lissit Fude in D flat, Granger's Shepherd's Hey, and Delibes Dolomieu Nalla. Next Sunday, April 6 Rudolph Dumar, clarinetist will be the soloist with Miss Hagel Thomas at the piano. Julius Bledsoe Sang. Julius Bledsoe baritone, appeared Sunday evening March 30, at Town Hall in a recital by the pupils of the school of voice culture which he at tend. Reports are that the effect that recorded was favorably received. According to information at hand the young man is to make his formal debut at Acadia Hall on Sunday evening April 30 under auspices of the Zuker Concert Bureau. Hazel Harrison in Atlanta Hazel Harrison pianist appeared recently in Atlanta, Ga., at first Congregational Church under auspices of the Fine Arts Study Club. She great was the impression she made upon a few whites who were present that for the first time in Atlanta's history, the Phillips & Crew Music Hall was opened to a colored artist, and Miss Harrison played except for one change and one omission the identical program for the whites which she had played for her own people. She was given a tremendous ovation on both occasions. Crowds Throng Into St. George's Church To Honor Burleigh Crowds Throng Into St. George's Church To Honor Burleigh (Continued from First Pages) The program was devoted chiefly to singing by the choir, but the Rev. Dr. Karl Reiland, the rectory, made a short address in which he referred to Mr. Burleigh as the leading singer of the church and to his long and notable service there. Dvorak. Dr. Reiland said, "The Symphony in the neighborhood of St. George and received much of his inspiration from his association with Mr. Burleigh. Just before he concluded speaking Dr. Reiland called Mr. Burleigh to the pulpit. There was no aplaeuse, of course, but an audible murpur swept through the crowded auditorium as the white-haired singer, garbed in snowy vestments, stood beside the rector and howed several times. As he descended from the pulpit the choir began the singing of one of his best known compositions: An' I couldn't hear nobody pray; An' I couldn't hear nobody-pray; O 'way down yonder by myself; An' I couldn't hear nobody pray; O Lord, I couldn't hear nobody pray. Then the melody changed abruptly, Reverberating against the high arched ceiling and welling back over the crowded ailes to the farthest end of the auditorium: In de valley! On my knees! With my burden! An' my Saviour! Halleluja! Troubles over! In de kingdom With my Jesus! When the service was over Mr. Burleigh stood at the chancel steps and hundreds of those in the congregation shook his hand as they passed out, many of them to visiting automobiles. Since becoming a composer, Mr. Burleigh has written about 250 songs, besides several festival anthems and violin compositions. "I hope," he said, "to make my greatest reputation as an arranger of Negro Spirituals. In them my race has pure gold and they should be taken as the Negro's contribution to art." Morehouse College Music The music department at Morehouse College under direction of Kemper Harreld, violinist and conductor, has been unusually busy this year. The annual concert in Sale Hall Chapel was a pretentious affair. Mr. Harreld presented a glee club of forty-two voices, a male quartet, and an orchestra of thirty-two instruments. The program included numbers by the orchestra, glee club, quartet, with vocal, piano and violin solos A concert tour which followed included recitals at Selma, Birmingham, Easley and Tuskegee Institute, Ala "Steppin' Out" Goes Big At Lafayette Theatre "Stepping Out," the musical comedy at the Lafayette Theatre this week, is a second edition of "Follow Me," one of the most successful of last year's colored shows. At the opening performance on Monday night, a large audience greeted Billy Higgins, Clifford Ross, Susie Sutton, and the others in the cast who are favours in Hardem. And although much of the material in the show had been used here before, it was entertaining from start to finish. Higgins and Ross are the real champion laugh producers among colored comedians and more than lured up to their reputation on Monday night, Julia Moody, Ernest R. Whitman, Aurelia and Jennifer Rogers were the other stars in the cast. Others in the cast were Alfre Georgas, William Gunn, Chester Jones, Salate Gaines, Walter Badie, Rid Taylor and a large and well trained chorus. The show will continue for the week of April 6.

He is in the role mentioned sometimes as captain "The In-Charge captain." The men who fill these runs are as a rule, the pick of the services, and not only must they be able to write and figure correctly, but there is a certain amount of common sense and diplomacy that they must t. e. in their work. During Mr. Ford's trip to Dartmouth, he was treated with the greatest respect and courtesy. The student body, whom he called was very impressed with the recital of his observations and experiences as a Pullman porter, and if any member of that body ever becomes interested in the railroad business, they will find what Ford told them to be a fact. We have read at various times the experiences and observations of most railroad employees—from presidents down to signal men, but we don't believe outside of their technical knowledge, that they can surpass the seasoned Fullman porter in his particular line. The railroad officers tell you about the roads over which they rule and run; the old officers you about them; the bceyes us, they are like dividends—no two operators. The porter who is capable of making observations has a mass of information, about railloading. If the day should ever come when Mr. Harvey will have established his African Colony and begins operating a railroad, we would suggest that he allow the intended president of the road to take a four year course as a Fullman porter. DEACON JOHNSON'S MUSICAL COLUMN TO GROW AS WE SERVE In this BUSINESS, no one can grow in the confidence of his patrons without WORKING every step of the WAY. And the history of our BUSINESS is a succession of PATRONS who are so WELL PLEASED with our SERVICE that they tell others. With HARD WORK you must combine GOODWILL as important aid to SUCCESS. SUCCESS GOODWILL is a wonderfully important factor in the SUCCESS of SINGERS and PLAYERS. GOODWILL truly springs from the HEART, we know, but many SINGERS and PLAYERS have not kind HEARTS—or at least them not kind enough to MAKE them the GENERATOR of GOODWILL. So, let us discuss ACQUIRED GOODWILL, which must be TAUGHT and ENFORCED in every MUSICAL, COMBINATION, and by every LEADER and by MU-TEACHERS everywhere. SIC TEACHERS GOODWILL is more ECONOMICAL, ILLWILL, and the POWER of GOODWILL to attract BENE- NESS to us is enormous. PITS to I have been my lot to come into contact with a great number of well TRAINED and CLEBRATED MUSICIANS in my thirty-one years of practical experience, and I have actually never known one with LLWILY. I have met some SHAMS and MAKESHIFT MUSICIANS who showed rude and insolent want of GOODWILL, but never have I seen among the GENUINE MUSI- CLAN: So, it is plain that our LEADERS OF COMBINATIONS MUST be MUCHIANS. And, it is also very clear that CONTRACTORS and LEADERS are equipped for different parts of ENGAGEMENT—BUT ALWAYS REMEMBER ENGAGEMENT. AND THE SAME ENGAGEMENT. AND THOUGH WE ARE SPECIALIZING, WE MUST WORK IN UNISON TO TRYSE THE PATRON. SATISFY the FACTS Of course, many LEADERS can refute these things that I say, and I am too thankful that they can. am too thin. You know through your own EXPERIENCE that this analysis is true. You know it through with your own experience with your own CONTRACTS—your own LEADER and your own DEPARTMENT. COMBINATION As a GOING BUSINESS CONCERM, CONTRACTORS, LEADERS and COMBINATIONS have been TWISTED and ALIENATED. we have been BARRICATED from each other and our minds BEFUILD by a long period of STUPID TEACHINGS, but to complete an ENGAGEMENT our efforts are to realize this FACT! Any BUSINESS SYSTEM or TRANSACTION which is good about should be talked about. The ART of ENTERTAINING is involved in two SERIOUS A STRING GLE with ECONOMIC PROBLEMS OUR NEW STORE vs. TRAINING GROUNDS We are glad to acknowledge the spontaneous patronage of the many, many sincere friends who have visited us. Words cannot express the fullness of hope which has come to us through the shower of good will expressed towards us. A business institution, like an individual, must at times, take stock and ascertain what good they have accomplished. So it is with us. It is but two weeks since our doors have been opened, and we are satisfied with our modest contribution to the community and the race's good in general—A contribution of giving experience and training to some of our young women in the art of modern department store merchandising.—If no other purpose is served, we shall still feel happy in the consciousness of our giving a needed contribution to the economic development of our community and race. There are many who have seen our point of view, and we believe there will be others who will realize the end which we seek. We carry an assortment of merchandise with quality and prices to suit everybody. All we ask is a chance to serve, and our willingness to serve and please will be acknowledged by your vlsit to our store. COLORED AMERICAN COMPANY, Inc. WILLIAM H. ROACH, Chairman of the Board of Directors. # 1. Head Hanover, N. H., March 25—John Brown, Four-year car porter, present- er the group of services and kind words, seek the answer on the lecture-platform or on economics course at Dartmouth. March 25 On OAC's same platform railroad presidents, counsellors of industry, heads of the industry, have called to the same clarity. But no one authoritatively, no less exclusively, can has properly, did this manifested colored man in the uniforms of fullman employeis directus on the regulations of his job and the place he held in the largest railway machine which hawks the nation. And young men from all parts of the country whom he addressed as future President, future Governor, future doctors and lawyers and men of large affinity, listened attentively and with keenest appreciation. Sensing the honor accorded him, to be invited to such a place, to talk to such an audience, Mr. Ford bent every energy to give the best that he had in explaining the training, life and responsibilities of the porter. His reserved manner and demeanor bespoke his understanding that was under the shadow of old trees that had looked down upon great men—like Daniel Webster. Heard by Three Giggs Professor Malcom Keir of the department of economics of Dartmouth sponsored Ford's presence, and introduced him to three classes of students. Professor John M. Mocklin, whose history of the Ku Klux Klan has just been hailed as among the first authentic exposures of the Ku Klux Klan in sociology to hear him. Chaplain Janway come over from the chapel to flake. At the moon process, W. Irving Bullard, vice-president of the Merchants National Bank of Boston, who is addressing classes in banking this wreak, shook hands with Mr. Ford as a fellow lecturer, and both had a "hearty laugh at the experience." Professor Keir was Mr. Ford's host the entire time he was here, and made him his lunchroom at the college fun. He saw him off on the bus to the New York train at White River Junction at 2 o'clock. Sitting at ease in a caned armchair on the lecture platform in Tuck Hall, in his blue uniform, Ford told of how his 10,000 Puffman fellow-patter- and the 3,000 "extras" of the heavy travel months of the summer—are examined and trained before they begin their service. He told of how they lived on salaries and tips, and he justified tipping as a proper reward for genuine service. "A good poster, like a good President, must give the best that is in him for the service of the public," he said simply, raising his hand. Protections Whid No Prepahes. "When I travel off-duty, going South or to New York or Chicago, I ride in Pullman cars, for if I believe in such service I should have it and pay for it myself. And I expect the same quality of service for myself that I am expected to give when I am working. I tip. too. Coming from New York to Springfield to be further BURDENED with needless CONFLICT by. MISUNDERSTANDING. In a STRUGGLE which lashes us all we have terrible need to stand for a CO-WORKING SYSTEM which is without SUSPENSION—HAVE FAITH and GROW IN FAITH. And this is exactly what we are BEGINNING to do. CONTRACTORS, LEADERS and COMBINATIONS do not see each other CLEARLY, but we are coming to it GRADUALLY. OALIY. We still have with us SINGERS and PLAYERS who seem to have no idea of GOODWILL, who push aside all RULES of BUSINESS, who usurp places in the profession, who 'break all INSTRUCTIONS, who are rough and disabling and who seem to think that THEIR own PLEASURE and COMFORT is the only thing which counts. THEIR days are numbered and they are living in the 19th Cen- tupf in fact they have never lived only EXISTED their property, and the court will determine the fairness of the lawsuit. He was acquitted in the trial. The lawyer's public career has affirmed his name and brought on the trial after his job ball has not taken place. Men and women—there is no distinction between any two groups to serve as lawyers—have said that, in the case of a lawsuit of your law, "Service the world with justice and leases the jobs the world makes for you and lattice. And that same is in force, what I believe in another truth. We do not need any laws in this great country, we live and travel in. There are strong laws. All we need to do now is to punish the power to do harm. Emma is the children. "I am married. I have a wife and three children. I like to be living in New York.

"The porter is responsible for everybody and everything in his car. He has to keep a check on the company's property, and do everything in his power to make his passengers comfortable. I have taken a baby's bottle forward to heat in my water pail. And I have to watch to see that the temperature of the car is right all the time. Anything the porter can do to serve, it is his duty to do. The President of the United States must do that, to be a good president. "That brings another thought. If you are going to be President, the best President you can be. Don't be President, or a doctor, or a lawyer, if people not going to be the best they can have. have a right, then you can give them. If you do not give them the best you offer in the end." suffer student, taking advantage of a page in Ford's discourse, asked: "Is there any standard by which one can tell just how much to tip a porter?" Ford smiled serenely. Then he chuckled good-humoredly. "It's an old saying," he said, "but 'let your condescension be your guide'—and the The classroom reverberated with the laugh he brought. 12.

READ THE TO LET ADB ON PAGE EIGHT Last week I promised to teach "Poems" in this article. I will be satisfied if you can read them, possibly of course. I must stick to my promise, and some of the poems will have to be omitted. There are still a few more books to write about, so I am going to make my articles just as short as possible. Now back to my subject. If I am tasked to we will find in my book of "For" "School Day," the little诗 poem that may perhaps interest you. How true and thrilling in each line. My Praise! that I am sure know of, you will find in my book. Path for joy and secretion for this our column. This poem was first published in this column in March, 1922, and again by request in January, 1923. I will resent it again sometimes. Naying the close of my book of "Foam," we find a poem listed with some of my best works: "Bunny Southland, I Love Thee." This poem of my confession for the laws of the Sun, My Southland where I was born, was composed last March when migration was in full swing. Many (their wished to have) published but for the public not seeing my poem, I was afraid to do so. An this poem is very long I shall omit some of it. I trust your thoughts will contend with mine, and you will catch the connections. SUNNY SOUTHLAND I LOVE THE Dear old Sunny Southland, How I love thou! With all thy scented flow's, Even thy great slim's binding bough. I love thy hills high And thy valleys deep I love thy pure waters That flow from yonder creek. I pray that the time Will never come when I Shall be moved from Under thy sunny sky Let me here amuse thy strife, All thy joy of my life. Then when I am dead, Let my bed be beneath thy sky. Where the sun upon me will shine, And the birds will often over me chime Here in the land that I love so well, Here in the land that I dwell. Lord, teach me to be noble, pure, Gracious, loving and true, Theo 'y lo chy my father and brother, And non-respect my father and mother- But my prayer at the rising sun, Let Thy Will Be Doe. Here I omit a number of lines, some of them telling in thyme of some of our great leaders that were born in the Southland. The last lines are as follows: Let the people rave, let them crave, But I know "the wind doesn't blow One way always." For the dear Lord who takes care of us each day. Will some day lift our burdens away. The last poem found in my book of "Poems" is "Conference Time." This poem was composed last summer while I was in Kings Mt. N C, attending the "Y" conference. It was accepted for the "Conference Trend." (our conference paper) The opening verse is O happy, happy conference time. The dearest of my life. Thy hours are filled with sunshine. Thy joy banished my strife. Omitting two verses, here is the closing stanza Still another poem that I have not copied in my book of "Poems," is "Will the Negro Vote for Mr McAdoo?" I composed this poem after a view of McAdoo, candidate for the Democratic Sylvester Garkell of Detroit, Mich., is the house guest of his al-in-law, Mr. Handsor A.

Miltzen, pastor. After two weeks of revival effort the very atmosphere was filled with the Omnipresence of Almighty God. The revival was not one which increased the membership of the church, but it filled the entire congregation with the power of the Holy Ghost and astonished them to work zealously for the Master. Text, Acts 4:11-32, "What happens when the church prays?" There is a thrilling, gripping and elucidating spirit in this book which the church of today needs. Not-poly-113 Avenues Church, but the entire church of Jesus Christ needs to come into the realization of the Book of Acts as it has never been before. "And when they had prayed the place was shaken where they were assembled together and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost and the spoke the Word of God with holdiness." There were, five distinct things; that place when the people prayed; First, The place was shaken; second, They were filled with the Holy Ghost; third, They were hearty; fourth, They had all one soul; fifth, They had all things in common. The same thing can happen today; the church is not praying as they should. It is the same God; prayer has the same effect and feeling, if the conditions are fulfilled, hope that the church will be able to accomplish this spiritual effort will be far more of God's power, more of His grace, more—more of His love. When the church prays, what happens? We are face to face with reallies. A real revival needs to start in the altar, down to the pews, in the homes, in our lives and then out into the community. God wants the church aroused. Special to All Home Seekers for houses, lots and also houses built to order. Money to loan. Call or write to W. N. WILSON, 107 3rd Street N. 104th M.

Our prayers are mostly to save our children, relatives and friends. Our prayers should be but the church do with the light sought of God, as an appropriate response of God when it works for me to do. We need to be shaken, so that the choked up channels of our lives and hopes be opened. Things things chappen when we pray! They become empowered filled with the Holy Ghost power infused with them as they became living tools passed from death into life, passed from weakness to strength. Never, let anyone or anytime has any man been filled with God, who does not play. No home can be kept and protected by God unless it pray, here prayer does not prevail in the home, that home perishes. There is no permanent protection without prayer, and devotion, a spirit that dear friends of God does not of my heart. The church may become a living power. Power only power from God through prayer. Prayer breaks the barrier makes God read does not change God's will, but relea- ses. Spiray is likened to a radio. Wave mullings take up mast's speech. This has been going on ever since God created the earth, but it has not, been realised until some one set up a station to catch the sound. God's power fills the universe to-day; only men and women who set up a station in the homes can get anything. Only those can get the message who string wires. You will get the message if you fulfill the conditions. Sir me, Oh God, sir me. "PIT-A-PAT." Newark, N. J. Jesse Jones Catering To Parties, Weddings and Banquets. 42 Locust Hill Avenue YORKER, N. Y.

SITE FOR NEW BOYS' HIGH Location Is The Only One Available That Is Con- ventent for All Classes of Harlem Students. At the public hearing for the proposed high school for boys, held on March 24 before the Board of Estimates, several con- served citizens appeared unpressed in favor of the site chosen by representatives of the Board of Education, on 122nd street, between Madison and Park avenues. Fred R. Moore pointed out that there is no high school for boys above 9th grade, or south of 9th grade, street and the proposed life would cause more boys to the neighborhood to continue in school than are now doing so. Such a high school, would serve the Harlem section and be an incentive for them to go to high school. Many now have not the James H. Hubert, secretary of the New York Urban League, also spoke in favor of the site. "A representative of the Board of Education told the committee that this was the only site available in this section and that the question had resolved itself," Mr. Hubert said. Some other section would be benefited by the school. The site was opposed by Murray Hulbert, president of the Board of Aldermen, Dian Traynor, president of the M. Morris Community Council and the tenants of the property where the school is located. That to more that they would have to pay higher rent. Alderman Charles McGillick of the 20th A. D. favored the site. After hearing arguments on both sides Mayor Hylan put off selecting the site for one month. Citizens of this section who would like to see a high school for their children should write the mayor urging favorable action on the proposed site.
