According to what appears to be reliable reports, there is a concerted effort being made to put Negro numbers' bankers out of business that the enormous profits may be monopolized by a group alleged to be headed by Moe Immerman, formerly one of the most notorious of the Jewish bootleggers operating in Harlem.

Edge was renominated in Tuesday's Primary, beating his opponent, National Committeeman Hamilton F. Kean, by a majority of 55,000. Evidence of Moe Immerman's connection with this phase of the "numbers" gambling, and of his receiving the assistance of certain of the men connected with the police department is declared to be seen in several incidents occurring within the past few days. Those in touch with the situation say that raids on the rooms of colored men suspected of being engaged in this business have been made by officers who received their information from Immerman or some of his tours, and that these same officers are careful not to interfere with Moe or any of his employees.

RENOMINATED Edge was renominated in Seven. of Nine Raters Composing the Session Unite Int Request to Rev. Frank M. Hyder That He Relinquish Pastorate. But Minister Declines to Agree to Suggestion That He Give Up The Pulpit. FINAL AGREEMENT IS REACHED TO SUBMIT ENTIRE QUESTION TO CONGREGATION BODY IN A MEETING CALLED FOR OCTOBER FIRST The membership of St. James Presbyterian Church, 59-61 West 137th street, the Rev. Frank M. Hyder, pastor, is in considerable of a turmoil; following the action of a group of seven of the nine elders constituting the Session of the church in presenting a petition to the pastor asking him to resign from the pastorate of the church. This the pastor refused to do, but expressed a willingness to submit the matter to the consideration of a congregational meeting, with the action of that body to be accepted as decisive. The seven elders are reported to have refused to agree to this position. Withhold Statements. Dr. Hyder, when seen by an Age reporter, declined to make a formal statement for publication, saying that, he was resting the matter entirely on his ecclesiastical and constitutional right to Petition Read Sunday. The petition was first presented to Dr Hyder by a group of his opponents, led by Dr. H. C. Blue, assistant secretary of the Sesson, on Saturday evening, September 6, but it was not made public until Sunday, the 21st, when it was read to the congregation at the morning service. It will be read again on Sunday, September 28, according to requirement of the church law. One of the largest congregations seen in St James for some time was at this service, as rumors had been flying for two weeks through the church membership, and all were expectant of executing revelations. Three principal reasons were given in the petition" as a basis for the asking of Dr Hyder's resignation, each reason attributing some lack to the pastor. Charges Against Pastor. It was charged that the growth of the church has been retarded; that the financial strength has been weakened, and that there have been serious reflections up on the minister's moral integrity. The latter evidently refers to disclosures of alleged acts by the pastor which were investigated by the New York Presbytery. Dr Hyder being completely and absolutely exonerated. The pastor demes that either membership or finances are retragrading. Following the refusal of the seven members of the Session to submit the matter to a congregational meeting, Dr Hyder caused the circulation of a petition for signature by members of the church, asking for a congregational meeting, in accordance with the church law. It is stated that when some 300 members had signed this call, the Session agreed to make the call itself, which was done, and the meeting, to be held Wednesday evening, October 1, at 9:30 o'clock. Withhold Statements. Dr. Hyder, when seen by an Age reporter, declined to make a formal statement for publication, saying that, he was resting the matter entirely on his ecclesiastical and constitutional right to have the matter considered by the entire membership and not by a group of seven For the seven elders, Dr. Blue also refrained from making a statement for publication, saying that it was a church matter and it was to be considered and settled within the walls of the church and not through the columns of newspapers Cong.

Another Report Is That Thornton Had Led Parishoners To Believe He Intended To Marry Another Girl, Friend of Bride, and That This Girl Finally Changed Her Mind and Married Another. The recent marriage of the Rev. Dr. Montrose W. Thornton pastor of Bethel A. M. E. Church, West 132nd street, to Miss Alma Douglass Brown, a beautiful young woman member of that church, has been followed by an aftermath that is stirring the congregation of that church and the hosts of friends of the popular minister.

Whether or not the marital tie was actually consummated is not brought out, but the marriage was duly announced it is said, and the young couple were felicitated by their many friends.

Miss Davis a young colored girl sought admission to the teacher's training course but her application was turned down, it is alleged by one Miss Elizabeth O'Connell, in charge of the Training School who set up the claim that the colored girl had a decided host in her speech. The girl's mother immediately arranged to have her daughter treated at the New York Post-Graduate Hospital, Clinica. Dr Papart was in charge of the case, and after three months, an conference with other experts on the clinic staff, reported that there was not and had not been the (Continued on Third Page) Whether or not the marital tie was actually consumed is not brought out, but the marriage was duly announced it is said, and the young couple were felicitated by their many friends. Incidentally, it is asserted that Alma's mother, a Mrs. Douglass, was decidedly opposed to her association with Urquhart and was not reconciled to the subsequent marriage. Was Cooper's Successor. In assuming the presidency of the usher board, Urquhart succeeded young Cooper, son of the pastor who preceded Dr. Thornton at Bethel, the Rev. John Cooper, whose friends at Bethel made a determined effort to keep him as pastor in defiance of Bishop Heard'sukase. And the story that is told indicates that he also succeeded young Cooper in the affection of the charming Alma. For Alma was desperately in love with young Cooper, it is alleged, and the report has it that she tried to end her life by the poison route when Cooper's mother turned down the request of Mrs. Douglas that the young couple he allowed to get married. Mrs. Cooper is repitted to have replied to the girl's mother, when the marriage was suggested, that the boy was too young to think of marriage and that anyway he must complete his studies before taking any such step. Girl Attempted Suicide. Alma was in despair and made a determined effort to "shuffle off this mortal cell." Only that immediate medical aid was green saved her life, it is said. The Cooper family finally, after litigation over the pulpit at Bethel had ended in Thornton's favor, went on to Boston to Dr. Cooper's new charge. Then Alma and Urquhart began their romance. Although the opposition of her mother was unavailing to stop Alma's association with Urquhart, and the marriage which followed it seemed to come into play with sufficient energy to present Alma from finally joining her husband in the cosy little nest when he had finished "building" it at 182 West 135th street. Although the groom spent goodly sum of money in fixing u. the home, the bride never came to it, it is reported. Mother Took Her Away. The next development was that Alma and her mother had shaken the dust of New York from their flapper skirts and departed for the flower decked and fruit laden vistas of California. And al- though many of their friends re- ceived advices from time to time of the wonderful time being en- joyed by Alma and her mother. the deserted husband was sitting, disconsolate and alone, with no tidings of any sort from his girl wife. was pre-knowledge of expected developments from the California trip, and that he had kept in constant touch with movements of Miss Brown and her mother, and that his association with the Murray girl was a sort of camouflage. In this connection it is pointed out that the girl and her mother were not known to have returned to New York until Alma came as Mrs. Thornton. The outcome of John Urquhart's legal suit as awaited with curious anxiety And when direct word did come to him, it was in the shape of a newspaper announcement that on Monday, July 7, 1924, Alma Douglass Brown Urquhart had become the wife of the Rev. Dr. Montrose W. Thornton, her pastor, the ceremony being performed at the residence of Mrs. C. F. Boggs. 30 South Ruby street, Philadelphia, with the Rev. Dr. Watkins as the officiating minister. Now there is a further complication through the launching of a legal action by the aggrieved husband or ex-husband, John Urquhart, who had papers served on the new Mrs Thornton some two weeks ago. Dr. Thornton disclaimed all knowledge of the affair until publication of the story concerning the beginning of an action in the courts. Thornton's Mother Surprised. The marriage of Dr. Thornton came as a surprise to the members of his congregation, and even to his mother, who kept house for him at Bethel's parsonage, 52 West 132nd street, adjoining the church. The first intimation, according to reports, which came to Dr. Thornton's mother was a telegram received on Thursday, July 10, telling her of the marriage and instructing her to have dinner prepared for a party of three on the next evening. Friday, when the bridal bridal couple would arrive from Atlantic City, where they had spent a few days honeymooning. The pastor's mother, after much cogitating over the words, "Dinner for three," finally concluded that her son meant to include her in the wedding dinner celebration as a delicate compliment, or as a sueing for forgiveness for not having taken her into his confidence as to the projected marriage, but this pleasing thought was changed on Friday when the bride's mother, Mrs. Douglass, put in her appearance and let it be known that she was to be the third dinner guest in her daughter's new home. Another Girl in Case. The credulity of members of the congregation was strained to the utmost, for most of them were of the opinion that Dr Thornton was planning to marry another young girl of the congregation, Miss Ella Murray, a high school student and a friend of Miss Brown, with whom she was associated in church auxiliary organizations. This girl, during the absence of Miss Brown in California, was frequently seen in company with Dr Thornton, and it was alleged that her parents. Mr and Mrs. Joseph Murray, who lived at 110 West 134th street, were in entire accord with their daughter in her liking for the minister Mr Murray was one of the officers of Bethel, and it is suggested that Mrs Murray had visions of seeing her daughter erested in the dignified robes of a ministers wife. Some comment was occasioned in this connection when Dr Thornton attended a district conference of his church some months ago, and had Miss Murray in attendance as his personal guest, with the full knowledge and consent of her parents. This action, it was thought, was the procurer of their impending marriage, to be followed by a trip to the general conference. This did not eventuate, however, and there is a rumor to the effect that young Miss Murray, who is still a school girl, has become enamoured of a youth of her own age, and there is an unconfirmed report to the effect that she is all ready married. Did Ella Turn Him Down? The Murray's are now living at Huntington, Long Island, on some of the friends of both suits intimate a belief that Miss Murray finally rejected the preacher and that he then turned for consultation to her friend. Alma who had in the meantime obtained what she claims is an annulment of the ceremony which made her Mrs Urquhart. But the minister's enemies are suggesting a more sinister phase. They are suggesting that there 369th Infantry Completes Two Weeks' Tour of Duty At State Camp, Peekskill Under Col. Arthur Little, Regimental Commandant, the Colored Soldiers Made a Splendid Record of Efficient Service and Development—The Wartime Commander, Col. Hayward, Visited Camp. The 369th Infantry, N. Y. N. G. Col. Arthur Little commanding, broke camp at Peekskill, N. Y., on Sunday, September 21, and returned to the city after a most successful two weeks' stay. The vast majority of the 900 men who entrained with the regiment were new in the army, but after the period of intensive training they returned to the city much better soldiers and greatly improved in their physical condition. Their training included daily drills, hikes, target practice and the use and care of army equipment. In their off hours they enjoyed athletic contests and other games, formed a glee club and singing chorus, which, with band, under command of Lieut. Eugene Mikell, entertained the regiment with music. Men Made Fine Record: At the request of their commanding officer, the Volstead Law was rigidly observed and in every respect the morale of the regiment was unusually high, and only two men were put in the guard house during the two weeks. They were confined for only a few hours for minor offenses. When the Old Fifteenth Regiment went to Peekskill in 1917 they found the camp practically a wilderness, and had to do lots of work in laying out company streets and in building the barracks and mess halls. But this year the regiment found the camp equipped with the best of every SAY THAT FISK IS HARMED BY PRES. McKENZIE SAY THAT FISK IS HARMED BY PRES. McKENZIE (Continued from First Page) trustees declined to comment on the statements made by the various speakers, but Mr. Wood spoke briefly, without commuting himself in any way other than to say that the trustees must in honor support the administration they had put in charge of affairs at Fisk until it was shown incontrovertibly that the school was being harmed by such a policy Dr H. H Proctor, president of the Fisk Club was unavoidably prevented from being present at the opening, but came in during the meeting and spoke briefly or conditions at Fisk as he found them on a recent visit. He referred to the fact that as an alumnus of Yale University he had a voice in the affairs of that great institution, but that no such privilege was accorded him at Fisk. Dr. W. E. B DuBois presided at the meeting, and at conclusion of the speeches, exhibited copies of the "Fisk Herald," an alumnu publication, which he said was being resurrected and would be circulated among the alumni and friends of the school. The need of funds for financing of the movement to bring about better conditions at Fisk was spoken of, and more than $1,000 was pledged by a few of those present, eight subscribing $100 each. The meeting closed with the singing of "The Fisk Song," led by Dr. Ernest R. Alexander, the last verse and chorus of which are as follows "To Heaven to Country and to Thee.

More than 4,500 visitors, most of whom went on Sunday, September 14, visited the regiment during its stay at Peekskill, Col William Hayward, former commander of the regiment, was among the guests and was given a royal welcome by his former comrades. General Geo. L. Rickards, in command of all militia forces of the country, paid a two-day visit to the regiment, and after inspecting the men declared that they were the equal of any similar regiment he had ever seen. State Senator Duncan T O'Brien, who secured favorable legislation for the regiment, was also among the guests. Colonel Arthur Little, Lieut Col. Seth B. McClirton, the regimental adjutant, Captain Otto Steadman, and all the other officers, are proud of the showing the men made while in camp, and feel that the 369th has entered upon a new period of development and service to New York City and the country. The men are now in their new armory and announcement will be made at an early date of the fall and winter activities the regiment will undertake. Fred R. Moore, with John Connors, Jerry Preston and Mr Washington, were guests of Col Little and the officers of the regiment at the camp on Friday, September 19. The trip was made by motor in Mr. Connor's car and a most enjoyable day was spent RUTH WHALEY PASSES EXAMINATION IN LAW Mrs Ruth Whitehead Whakay of 219 West 190th street, who graduated from the law department of Fordham University in June past with highest honors, has passed the New York State Bar examination with just as signal success. The examinations were held June 20 and 27, and she has been motivated that both groups were passed in her first attempt. During her course at Fordham she led her class with seventeen A pluses and seven A minuses, was never gless, always ready for recitation, never missing or answering "unprepared." She was the first colored woman to enter Fordham's law department.

CHARLES H. TRUSTY. ELECTION OF NEGRO MODERATOR STIRS CHURCH PRESBYTERY Pittsburgh Presbyterians Are Divided On Question of Honor Paid Dr. Charles H. Trusty. Pittsburgh, Pa—The elevation of the Rev. Dr Charles H. Trusty to the office of moderator of the Pittsburgh Presbytery of the Presbyterian Church—the largest Presbytery in the United States—has injected the race question! into a situation which already was so delicate that it required all the coolness and caution of church leaders to present Dr Trusty, pastor of the Grave Memorial Church, north side, and freely admitted to be an exceptionally able representative of his race, was raised to the moderatorship last Tuesday over Rev. Dr. Frank J. Bryson, pastor of the fashionable First Church, in an election-marked by much confusion. Heated comment has followed this action. There are predictions that the hostility aroused is so deep that a movement designed to dethrone Dr. Trusty may looked for Through inquiry has established that Dr. Lurysty's elevation was not the result of any preconceived plan. There has been no scheming, no were pulling, no political maneuvering of any kind. The Res. O Newton Verner, who nominated Dr. Trusty in the Presbytery meeting, asserts that nobody else in the auditorium knew of his intended action. Dr Vernér Upholda Move "I had not talked with anybody else about it," said Dr. Verner, and I had no motive other than to give deserve recognition to a man and to a race. Far as I know, the election of a Negro has stirred to unfriendly feeling. No expressions of disapproval have come to me and I have received commendation from many. Dr. Trust's church was the first Negro congregation organized in the Pittsburgh Presbytery. Two other congregations, Bethesda and Bedwell Street have been organized under Dr. Trust's supervision. If the hour of the moderationship was to go to a Negro it seemed logical and fair that Dr. Trust's as pastor of the mother church should be the man selected. Months ago I talked informally with the pastors of these two other Negro churches, Dr. Benjamin F. Glasco and Dr. C. B. Allen and both of them expressed the view that Dr. Trusty was the man to receive any preferment. For a long time I had it in mind to nominate Dr. Trusty for moderator and I acted on this intention last Tuesday. That's all there is to it, just bestowing recognition where recognition is richly due. Dr. L. M. Gasson, for many years Secretary of the Board of Freedmen to the Presbyterian Church, with offices in this city, said Dr. Trusty's election was the logical result of education along broad lines. There is a must kindly feeling they ward the Negro in this district said Dr. Gasson and this feeling is due in great measure to the efforts of the Freedmen. Bound to graduate social hatred I don't believe there was anything at a political nature back of Dr. Trusty's election at all. It was naturally spontaneous. Dr. Trusty is a thoughtful man and he is a leader among his own people. Like virtually all the more intelligent and educated Negroes, he never has manifested any spirit ward his white associates that he is regarded as in the smallest degree of tenure. I feel sure that in the admin stitution of his important office he will give any of his supporters reason for regret. Protests Are Heard The appointm of Dr. Trusty + friends howevef no token among those outside their circle. The quarters from which expression of protest and revolt are raised make it clear they are not the result of momentary ill-feeling None of those leaders in the Presbyterian Church here who deplore Dr Trusty's election will permit the use of their names While few, if any, of them have aught to say against Dr Trusty individually, they deprecate the election of a Negro to preside over the Presbytery as extremely unwise impolite and ful of embarrassing possibilities "As in every large group, there are men and women in the Pittsburgh Press burytion with strong aversion toward the Negro when he appears as an asspirant for social equality. There are some who have come from the South and who are saturated with the traditions and the prejudices of the South. There are others, Northerners, in all their outlook, who have become alarmed by manifestations of forwardness on the part of Southern Negroes coming to this city of steel mills in droves, and who are acquiring an emphatic opposition to anything that suggests Negro ascendency. What will happen, it is said, if students in the Theological Seminary object to ordination under a Negro? And what about the ceremonials attendant upon the installation of ministers into new pastorates? Will all such ministers take kindly to the idea of receiving ministration at the hands of a Negro officer? Withdrawal Statement. Possibly Dr. Trenty himself senses something in this critical situation that has developed after once authorizing a statement for publication, ex-publication, expressing his feeling over the election and his views on the racial problem as it affects the Church, he forbade use of the statement and declined to make any statement whatsoever on the plea that he "would be in danger of being misunderstood." Dr Glasco pastor of the Bidwell Street Church established under Dr Trusty's guidance expresses gratification over the elevation of his associate Dr Trusty's elevation to the Moderatorship is both a tribute to him individually and the other members of his race" he said. When a man measures up to the standards of the Presbyterian ministry he is necessarily not a man of low intellectual and moral level to say the least, and Dr Trusty measures up to that standard. For myself, I believe the Presbyterian Church in requiring high standards of its ministers is doing much to eradicate the race question for the more Negroes we have who are willing to give the time and work and sacrifice myself in entering the Presbyterian ministry the less our white brothers will show a disposition to maintain racial lines as illustrated by Dr Trusty's elevation. And there is a growing number of Negro boys who are ready to meet the requirements with all they entail." Dr. Trusts was born in Cold Spring, N.J. in 1868 LASTER OOTTAGE SPRING LAKE BEACH, N. J.

PAID. $3,000 TO OLD HATTER FOR CHANCE TO LEARN BUSINESS Then Had To Work In Chemical Plant Without Wages To Learn Of Chemicals Necessary In Making Hats. Harlem can boast of one of the most interesting businesses in Greater New York. Not simply because the hat factory at 117 West 135th street is the smallest in the city, but because it is operated by Frank Yancy, a colored man, who spent several thousand dollars and overcame mountains of obstacles and discouragement in his effort to learn the business. As definitely as most men are called to preach or to enter other professions, Mr. Yancy feels that he was called to be a hatter, and not a small hatter at that for he has visions of making his business one of the most successful of its kind. These visions are becoming realities too, for since the establishment of the business on August 15, 1921, the annual gross receipts have steadily increased. It was incorporated in June of this year as Yancy and Son Hat Manufacturing Corp. and has already entered upon a period of expansion Frank Yaney was born in Augusta, Ga., about 38 years ago but was taken to Cordele, Ga., while an infant. While in public school his whole ambition was to become a lawyer. But financial necessities forced him to quit school after completing the fifth grade and for a while he worked as an apprentice to a tailor. After a year out of school he returned and completed the seventh grade. He then went to work again as a dishwasher in a hotel. From dishwasher he was raised to fry cook, and later became a waiter. Overheard Hat Talk. As a waiter he began traveling working in the North in summer and in Florida in the winter While in Daytona. Fla, he overheard a conservation between a retail hat store proprietor and a jobber, relative to the enormous profits to be made in hat manufacturing. This conversation was so interesting to him that he later went back to the store and talked with the dealer about the same subject. From the time of this conversation on, he knew that he wanted to learn the hat trade and began planning ways and means of doing so. He commuted his work at the hotel in the day but paid $50 to a hat cleaner to teach him all he could about the business in the evenings.

This report was submitted to Miss O'Connell, but that lady, stubbornly refused to reconsider her previous decision that Miss Arline did have a lisp and so was unable to take the teachers' training course. On September 12, Mrs. Davis brought the matter to the attention of Alderman: Smith, who questioned mother and daughter closely as to the facts in the case convinced as to the girl's eligibility and satisfied that if it was not really a case of attempted race discrimination, it at least had all the earmarks of such a condition. Mr. Smith immediately wrote a letter to Dr. M. Samuel Stern, vice-president of the Board of Education of New York County, calling his attention to the alleged discrimination. Dr. Stern referred the case to the district superintendent, John S. Roberts who wrote Mr. Smith, on September 16, that the matter would be inquired into, adding, however, "that it is not fair to believe that she was rejected because of 'deliberate race prejudice' because we are very anxious to have colored young, men and women of good character, and education become teachers in our schools Girl Finally Admitted. As a result of the prompt acco of Alderman Smith, Miss Davis was admitted to the.Train- ing School on Friday, September One week after the matter was brought to his attention.

The stage is set for the schoolational East Side Drama in which Sidney Vogel, in the role of "Papa Fat," is playing opposite Mrs. Elizabeth, William, the woman in the case, known as "Manuna Lizzie." As a prologue, before the curtain rises on the court room scene, characterizing the Jew and Gentile of today, Mrs. Vogel in a letter to The New York Age says: hard on me for many reasons that perhaps may be brought out later. I am looking only for real justice, and that I believe I will get through my attorney, Mr. Louis, A. Layelle, although I do feel that my many friends have somewhat forsaken me.

I shall make inquiries as to the reasons why this young lady has been rejected, but I feel, however, that it is not fair to believe that she was rejected because of deliberate race prejudice because we are very anxious to have colored young men, and women of good character and education become teachers in our schools.

And for this trouble to come as it has, although I am a good woman, they know that, but who can understand? They seem to feel, as people, change so these days, that their "Mama Lizzi" must have also changed, and got reckless, otherwise "Papa Fat" could never have done as he did because he was so good of me. You see he evidently talked a lot he didn't mean. I have done nothing to hum or anybody. I don't want so much notoriously but how am I able to show my friends otherwise that I am guilty of no wrong? All of our friends know that I was respected among the family of "Papa Fat's", brothers as his wife. Nobody understands their indifference now, and none of them would want to frelieve that "Papa Fat" signed an affadavit to the effect that he never lived with me and never furnished food or clothing. I am very broad minder, and had anyone of his brothers talked the matter over, and would inform a proper agreement, with which would have been better by the the method that was taken. True enough I lived as his common law wife, but we lived as good—and true—a life as though we had been married at the church. I am somewhat annoyed regarding a statement made regarding the visit made at Belleville Hospital. It is a positive fact that he was permitted to see me when the two ladies had been denied a visit. don't want his or my friends to feel that I said, he called as my my husband. I know he got in, but how, that I can't say, and tell the truth and I won't tell a lie, on the fellow. The truth being so plain in our case not the slightest lie as needed. (Truth speaks for itself. "Just why should "Papa Fat" sign an affavit to the effect that he never lived with me, never found food or clothes? Our friends on the East Side know better and his brothers also know that its downright lie. "I will greatly appreciate the good feeling of all of our friends who feel to stick by me for I have done nothing wrong. I also ask them not to feel real bitter against "Papa Fat" although he has done me a great wrong. I am almost sure there are some very important things he does not understand. One can't blame me for I am only trying, as said before, for justice. I want to show my or our good friends that I am still the "Mama Lifetime. I have been for these many years." "I am almost sorry you brought Rev. Garner and Alderman Hurrels in my case. I did tell you of them allowing how all around. I had done with my case, but not to publish. I knew I was telling the truth about my case and that something must be wrong somewhere, and such a case should the lobbied into. I had no money to fight them with, but God has been good to me.

Dr George E Hawnes secretary of the Commission on the Church and Race Relations Federal Council of churches, said in part, "The practice of the principles of Christian brotherhood between the races comes as a special challenge to the churches. The Federal Council from the time of its organization has recognized the force of this challenge and Negro churchmen have had a share in its organization and work of evangelism, of social service and of other phases of applied brotherhood. Specially was the work of the Commission on the Church and Race Relations appealed to the churches. "During the past three years, the campaign to areas the churches against the lynching evil has been one of several important forces in reducing the number of such attrocities last year to 28 the lowest in the records of evils and during the first six months of 1924 there were only five cases recorded. There are other evils which have long challenged the Christianity we profess which the organized forces of the Church must also attack and abolish. The Christian conscience of the land will no longer tolerate these evils when the Church attacks them with conviction and power." The speaker described interracial conference which have been held in northern and southern cities with the assistance of under the auspices of the Race Relations Commission of the Federal Council and the interracial committees that have been started by this means in such Northern cities as Toledo Ohio Wichita Kan and Chicago.

The course adopted by The Age of criticizing party policies and emphasizing Republican shortcomings at the present time seems to have created unwonted interest and astonishment on the part of one of our local contemporaries. In commenting upon the editorial entitled "Shortcomings of Republicans," printed in the issue of September 3, The Tattler said: The course adopted by The Age of criticizing party policies and emphasizing Republican shortcomings at the present time seems to have created unwonted interest and astonishment on the part of one of our local contemporaries. In commenting upon the editorial entitled "Shortcomings of Republicans." printed in the issue of September 13, The Tattler said: The shortcomings enumerated by the Age are far from being all of them by a heap which can and will be enumerated as we go along. But justification for protest and bolting on the part of Afro-Americans from the Republican party is furnished by the High Priest of Negro Republican Regularity, and that's gone gosme. and should make the Republican managers tired in the knees. Editor Moore's position is a painful one. If he should need some sympathy. The Tattler, which keeps a large assortment in stock is willing and ready to give him as he may need. His painful position may be summed up as follows: He who in other campaigns was the Big Thing at Republican Headquarters must find himself looked upon with suspicion because of his outspoken criticism of Republican policies and men, and because Mr. George W. Harris, the Ishmael editor of the New York News, whom Mr Moore despises and passes by on the other side, is chief of the Negro Publicity department, while Mr. Lester A. Waltom, his son-in-law, is chief of the Negro Publicity department of the Democratic party, and he can't go near either headquarters without starting the shaking of heads and wagging of tengues. We have tolerated the shortcomings of the Republican party for fifty years. Instead of getting better they have progressively gotten worse. Simple manhood and decency and self-respect require that we back up the protest with works that talk louder than words. The Age has been and still is Republican its policies, but that has not caused it to condone the shortcomings and failures of Republican administrations to keep faith with the race which it represents. It has been readfast on that job for several decades and proposes to keep up the fight along those ties. We have no censure for those courteous spirits who think that they can bring The Age has been and still is Republican in its policies, but that has not caused it to condone the shortcomings and failures of Republican administrations to keep faith with the race which it represents. It has been steadfast on that job for several decades and proposes to keep up the fight along those lines. We have no censure for those courageous spirits who think that they can bring about quicker results by waging the fight outside the party lines, but we do not feel called upon to follow them in jumping from the frying pan into the fire. At the same time, dissatisfaction is rife among the Negro Republicans and their allegiance to the party is waning. They have seen the party desert the principles upon which it was founded and adopt the worst practices of its opponent, the Democratis party. The prejudices and discriminations introduced into the government departments by Southern Democrats have been retained and perpetuated under Republican rule. No wonder that the black voters can see but little difference in the election of either party. Nevertheless, The Age proposes to hold to what is good in Republicanism while at the same time striving to eliminate the bad features that have crept into its management. It will support those Republicans who still embody the saving spirit of Republicanism and work for their success. It will denounce and oppose the elevation of men and candidates, who are false to the traditions of the party and who endeavor to make it a 'Little white' affair. If such a course is regarded as justification for protest and holting let it be so regarded. The remedy for such protest and holting lies with the responsible managers of the party and The Age urges them to apply. The remedy may be briefly defined as keeping faith with the voters and practising a fair deal. In the meantime the position of the Editor of The Age need not be regarded as plaintful. He is supported by the knowledge that he is performing a duty to the race and to the party which is needed to be done. As for sympathy and support the readers of The Age and the members of the race are a constant source of a gratifying supply of both commodities. MUZZLES THAT FAILED TO FIT. The Republican National Committee, after choosing Mr. William M. Butler of Boston as chairman, proceeded to form a colored anney for the purpose of keeping the Negro voters in line. Mr. William C. Matthews, also of Boston, was elected as the chairman of this special committee, with several a slants. Disturbed by the signs of revolt manifested by the Negro press against the failure of the present administration to keep its pledges to the race, made four years ago, it was deemed expedient to get these editors together and to fit them with a muzzle calculated to stifle their mutterings of discontent. At the instigation of Chairman Butler, Mr. Matthews was empowered to invite the editors of the Negro newspapers published in the East to a conference held in New York, with a dinner at a Harlem hotel. Presumably, the railroad expense of the editors from out-of-town and the expenses of the dinner were defrayed out of the campaign funds. A few of our editors refused to swallow the bait and others failed to attend the dinner, but a sufficient number gathered to eat the dinner and voice their complaints, despite the attempt to muzzle them. The resolutions adopted at the meeting and forwarded in the shape, of a letter to the National Chairman pledged support to the Republican candidates, with the proviso that certain suggestions be made a part of his program and a part of the program of the Republican National Committee, in order to bring relief to the colored Republicans. These suggestions were as follows: First—Segregation in the departments at Washington should be discontinued. Second—The practice of the Civil Services Bureau in classifying applications through the assistance of photographs is accepted as a subtle method calculated to make discrimination against our group easy. Third—The continuation of administration policies, which were instituted by Woodrow Wilson, are looked upon by us as a surrender on the part of the Republican party to Democratic policies. Fourth-We respectfully request representation in office based upon the voting strength of our group. Fifth—We repudiate lily-white Republicanism in all sections of the country, and call upon the Republican National Committee to wipe it out. Sixth—We must insist upon full party support of a quitable and proper measure calculated to stop lynching. Seventh—We congratulate the Republican party upon recognizing the colored Republican voters in the 31st Congressional District of New York, and also party recognition in all the Congressional districts where the colored vote is a factor. Eighth—We urge definite party action looking to the proper enforcement of the 14th and 15th amendments, as well as the 18th amendment. Although these suggestions are a trifle wobly in spots, notably the second, it would seem that the endeavor to apply the muzzle was not a brilliant success, so far as stifling the complaints of Republican maladministration. While the unterrified and unsubsidized editors of the Negro press were willing to take advantage of a junketing trip to New York, with a free dinner thrown in for good measure, they could not conscientiously endorse the ticket without certain reservations. It will be interesting to see how earnestly these editors hold out in insisting upon a semblance of good faith in the party managers in accepting these reservations and enforcing the reforms demanded in party policy. The time has passed, we believe, when the support of any considerable section of the Negro press can be won by a free excursion to New York or a ticket to a dinner The attempt to muzzle the editors appears to have been a fizzle. WHAT PARTY PRIMARIES SHOWED. The primary elections, held in this city last week, showed that the regular Republican organization was running smoothly, with but little opposition from independent candidates. In the Harlem districts all the regular nominees were chosen by large majorities. The importance of the primary as the starting point of all political action was emphasized by this result. It showed that the voters must enroll as members of one of the regular parties if they desire to have any voice in the choice of candidates to be voted for at the general election. The good faith of the Republican organization in according recognition to the Negro voters was demonstrated by the fact that Dr. Charles H. Roberts was nominated for Congress as the regular Republican candidate in the Twenty-first district without position. In the Twenty-first Assembly district further recognition was accorded by the nomination of Pope B. Billups for Assemblyman. Besides showing the element of good faith and square dealing on the part of the white Republicans these nominations were distracted by sound political strategy, in endeavoring to regain these two districts from the opposition, which carried them at the last election It is up to the voters of Harlem to show that no mistake has been made in nominating these two candidates. Each of them is in every way qualified to fulfill the duties of the office to which he has been nominated. Each of these candidates should receive the full party vote in order that the party may regain a seat in Congress and another member of the Assembly. More than this, the Negro voters of Harlem should feel a peculiar interest in supporting these two candidates, in that they are the first fruits of a movement within the Republican ranks to return to the first principles of the party Not only should these candidates receive the vote of every qualified voter of the race in the district where they are running, but they should be encouraged by the evidence of moral and financial support in the campaign. Especially should this be the case in the contest for Congressman, where the necessary and legitimate expenses are no small item. Interest in the success of the candidate should be manifested not only by pledging your vote and work, but by a substantial contribution to the campaign fund. Let our voters celebrate this return to Republican principles by getting out and working for the success of the ticket in Harlem. A LILYWHITE VIEW OF IT. In The Age of last week we published a letter sent by three representative colored Republicans to the chairman of the North Carolina Republican State Committee, to which no answer had been vouchsafed, nor was it likely to be. In this letter Chairman Bramham was asked if it would be "agreeable for the Republican State Committee to meet a committee of colored Republicans for the purpose of bringing out every possible Republican vote in the coming election." In The Age of last week we published a letter sent by three representative colored Republicans to the chairman of the North Carolina Republican State Committee, to which no answer had been vouchsafed, now was it likely to be. In this letter Chairman Bramham was asked if it would be "agreeable for the Republican State Committee to meet a committee of colored Republicans for the purpose of bringing out every possible Republican vote in the coming election." In default of any reply to this letter from the Republican chairman, the Greensboro Daily News, a purely Democratic organ, undertook to set forth the reasons why the communication remained unanswered. It styled the letter as an intrusion and conended that the writers of it knew that the state Republican organization would make no bid for the Negro vote, which it styled as a "millstone about its neck." It set forth the situation from the Lilywhite standpoint in the following brutal manner: In default of any reply to this letter from the Republican chairman, the Greensboro Daily News, a purely Democratic organ, undertook to set forth the reasons why the communication remained unanswered. It styled the letter as an intrusion and contended that the writers of it knew that the State Republican organization would make no bid for the Negro note, which it styled as a "millstone about its neck." It set forth the ajutation from the Lilywhite standpoint in the following brutal manner: The Republicans need a white party and do not need a black party. They tried the second of three 40 years and have wandered in a wilderness ever since. If Charles H. Moore and S H. Vick ever got anything from their politics but a legacy of overlasting race rancor and hatred, a temporary tenure of a Wilson postoffice and the killing of a lot of blacks by redshirts, we recall noms of it now. After this candid exposition of the Lilywhite position, as expounded by a Democratic advocate, we are not surprised to find the editor of the News telling these colored Republicans that if they wish to vote the Republican ticket, all that they have to do is to go to the polls and vote. It declared persistively that they have been doing this many years and doubtless know that nothing is easier, "even when Democratic registers record the electors' names on the books and set up a regime that means death to mental weaklings." That is, we suppose, of the "mental weaklings" betray the fact by their complexion. This remarkable editorial closed by saying that if there was any single sentiment in which "we thought all North Carolina agreed, it is that no man can do the Negro by kindness by dragging him to the polls." But enough has been quoted to show that the Lilywhite Republicans and the Redshirt democrats agree in their determination to keep the Negroes of North Carolina from being or exercising any influence at all in politics. They agree in the policy of keeping the race defenceless against injustice of all lands by depriving it of the ballot. As Mr. Moore said in his letter to The Age last week, the managers of the Republican organization seemingly, have determined to ignore absolutely the rights of from 50,000 to 75,000 colored Republicans who could qualify to register and vote, if they only had the encouragement and aid of the white Republican managers. It is no wonder that a Democratic paper the News approves of the Republican Lilywhite policy. It plays right into the hands of the Democrats. But what do the Republicans gain by it? It keeps their party a hopeless minority, without the prospect ever carrying an election. Probably the vision of the Federal patronage is all that these Lilywhites expect to gain. It is a serious system of national politics that encourages such a prostitution of official patronage.

MAKING A HAITIAN MARTYR Mr Iolibois Fils is the editor of a single set newspaper published daily at Port-au- nance Haiti and known as the Courrier nation organ of National Defense. In this per Mr Iolibois has kept up a continual note against the crimes committed in the time of the American Occupation for which he has been committed to jail, not but many times. In fact, it is hard see how he can continue the publication this paper, small though it may be, when is so often reported as occupying a cell Mr Iolibois Fils is the editor of a single sheet new paper published daily at Port-au-Prince Haiti and known as the Courrier Haitien organ of National Defense. In this paper Mr Iolibois has kept up a continual protest against the primes committed in the name of the American Occupation for which offence he has been committed to jail, not once but many times. In fact, it is hard to see how he can continue the publication of his paper, small though it may be, when he is so often reported as occupying a cell in some part of the island. This Haitian newspaper has a correspondent in New York through whom we learn that Mr. Jolibois is still being detained in the American military prison at Port-au-Prince in default of the payment of four thousand dollars, demanded to set him free. This amount is said to represent twenty thousand in national money, which the starving Haitians cannot pay. In order that the surrender of the Haitian leader in this jail might not be made too pleasant it is stated by this correspondent that High Commissioner Russell had the prisoner removed to a remote section where there had been made a special cell of only Comments By The Age Editors On Sayings of Other Editors four feet square. When the news of this treatment became public, it was reported that hundreds of Haitians started to march through the streets in sign of protest, but they were quickly dispersed by the gendarmerie, which is officered by members of the occupation. The situation is summed up by the correspondent of this Courrier as follows: "It is in this tomb that the martyr, Jolibois, is now paying the price of being an uncompromising patriot and of having refused to cooperate with the Occupation in the work of systematic destruction of his Denouncing segregation in the departments at Washington as a blight upon the nation, a concession to prejudice and a travesty upon our democratic pretensions, the Star of Zion said editorially. Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University, in a talk before the Coolidge-Dawes Republican League of Washington scored segregation and discrimination in the Government Departments. It seems to us that an executive order would easily put an end to all this, and if the President has the backbone with which he is credited he will issue the order. The Republican party accepted this rule of segregation from the Democratic administration and they seem to like it equally as well. They could stop it and unless the party deals with these slights against Negro womanhood and manhood with a strong and positive hand Dr Scott's protest will lead to a general repudiation of Republican policies. The supine acceptance by the Republican department heads of the discriminative policy handed down from the Democrats who preceded them, is one of the most serious blasts on the present administration According to the Washington Tribune reports from Tennessee indicate that Republican chances for success in the November election have suddenly declined, both as regards the State and National tickets. The reason for this is the action of the Lily Whites" in capturing the State organization and excluding the Negroes from the party council. The Tribune said. At a meeting of the Republican primary board in Nashville, Robert R Church of Memphis was unceremoniously put off the Republican state executive committee. Colored Republicans openly charge that this was done simply because the "Lily whites" of Shelby County demanded it. This deal handed the colored Republicans was so raw that after it had been done, a committee of three was appointed to go to Memphis and make an investigation.

HERBEN Of the New York Tuberculosis Association The Treatment of Boils "Is there an epidemic of hoops now?" asked two of the members of the staff who came to consult me about their own. If there is what is the reason? I agreed with them that from the number of people I have happened to see upon the street with suspicious. I bring bandages there seemed to be a large number of cases. The reason will no doubt be found in the facts that contrast to Nature's plan, we are going to shut ourselves and indulge ourselves too closely when we do go out in the fresh air, we are getting tired with the seasons' rush of parties and the work of the holidays. It stands to reason that we cannot be living out our dreams, playing tennis, walking乞, then suddenly cut off all that healthy activity and settle down to indoor work in school, three homes and write an essential job. We have taken up ourselves the burden of unhygienic living and after a try of four to six weeks we find that we are 'un down' and next on the program is bris. We are lucky that it is not something worse than pools. The treatment is general and local that is, we must do two things at once for a case of bris. We must first rect the improper habits and prescribe good food not too often ten hours of sleep at night daily baths cutting down on the daily activities, he they working or oral events as good cleaning out of the digestive tract and the taking of a real tour. The tour must come from the doctor in charge. Locally that is for the boil use if we must be guided by the stage of the trouble. It is beginning, the best thing to use is a pad of sterile gauze soaked in the water. Keep it on changing it frequently enough to maintain the cold upon the surface of the boil. This may alert the whole infection and the boil may not go to the point of needing to be drained of its pus. If the stage is more advanced than that and it is heading then it is helpful to do as follows. I boil a hair matched natural (not to hair) sponge in plain water for at least ten minutes or more and let it dry in a sterile towel or gauze. Then let it soak up a generous supply of glycerine. Put this sponge full of glycerine upon the boil and let it remain there until the sponge seems to be draining out and then repeat the process with a sterile sponge. This should not involve the draining of the boil and the need not do so the stage must be avoided by congeners. 'The High Commissioner has said to the Haitians that their barking (to use his own expression) will be of no avail, as the Washington Government will put the stamp of approval on anything he does in its name.' This seems to agree with the conclusion of an eminent representative at Washington, who after making some investigation into Haitian conditions, reported that the republic appeared to be run by the United States marines and the American Financial Agent. How long is this usurpation to last? lican state executive committee, led the fight against Church. On the night previous to the meeting of the Republican state primary board, the "lily whites" held their victory feast. It was to celebrate the final triumph of the "lily whites" of Davidson county, of which Nashville is the county seat, in their obtaining a county committee which had no Negroes on it. This complete surrender of the State organization has naturally alienated the support of the Negro voters and with it any prospect of Republican success. The Atlanta Independent thinks that the Ku Klux Klan is surely and successfully riding to death and if left alone it will die of the weight of its own sins. It said Silence, yes deathly silence is the remedy. Stop talking about it, quit giving it free publicity and cold frigid isolation will kill it. Ignore it do not dignify it by talking about it. The devil is on the run and will drown in the sea of perdition if you will retain him alone. State after state is repudiating the hooded order. Not in a single state except Georgia has the order to be to court a former in the state. Old Arkansas, Oklahoma, Ohio, Texas, Louisiana and the entire South has repudiated inevitable government as un-American, and have placed their names upon the honor roll. Surely inevitable government is riding to death and law and order are possessing all the people everywhere in America. We fear Editor Day was too previous in his conclusions as the KS showed its strength in nominating candidate for the United States Senate in Georgia. Somewhat more than deathly, it is needed to curb the tivilities of such a lawless aggregation. The nomination of Dr Charles H Roberts for Congress in New York is inspired the Detroit Independent to foresee "Reconstruction days revived when Negroes sit in Congress." It said. If forecasts by the political vanes are to be taken seriously, the time is a physician. If a boil shows streaks of red around it, a physician should be consulted. Any boil around the focal pads should be treated by a physician. THE PULLMAN PORTERS By JAMES H. HOGANS If the wearing of campaign banners and other forms of enthusiastic notification of their choice for President usually indulged in by voters at the time is a true indication of the will they will cast their ballot on election day we may safely predict that 99% of the Indian voters will vote for Cochise. The adhesion to Mr. Coolidge in spite of the silence on the Ku Klux Klan, his charge of action in conditions affecting the right of Negroes, and the consequent abstention of some of our angles in the vote, Republican ranks this as that the majority of these men doing a little think at the count. Allman Porters Athletic and Beth, and other railroad quarrels, the porters are comed to engage and express political ones in the chief reasons effecting their loyalty to the Republic and our crises are reasonable sound and hypothetical. The first argument advanced in support of Coulson is that regardless of his silence, President at heart no more in any paths with the Klan than a Catholic president of a Jewish rabbi could he experience and his present quenches in the face of the pretenuous activity of the national menace was as shrewd after his election as was Winston prevention attitude toward German (We hope they are right in this respect). It is told that the present incumbent on the White House here and educated as he has been in New England is both nature and training inherently antagonistic to the doctrines of the Klan him his position forces him at present discreetly. It is pummed out that he became the first through accident he has only a brief period during which to seduce many difficult problems of state and his opportunities of reelection would be seriously jeopardized were he to take cash and immediate action against an important organized group as the honourable four years in which he operate, however that he would not hesitate to see about the disbanding of this organization and push forward to a successful accomplishment of what we so much desire, is what many of his supporters in the Pullman service believe. Regarding Mr. Coolidge's inactivity on other issues directly affecting the Nation it is claimed that the state has no interest in him.

The last was George H. White of North Carolina, who served in the Fifty-fifth and Fifty-sixth Congress. He died in 1920 in Philadelphia. During the reconstruction period the Negro legislators sent to Washington came from the South, but the Nell will emerge the next Negro member of Congress, be they Republican or Progressive. Political observers predict that the first Negro Representative of the state will be sent from the Zist New York District, 1st Chicago District and 1st St Louis District. A Negro Representative from the mining section of West Virginia also is regarded as possibility in the future Not since the disfranchisement of the Negro in the Southern States has the race had a member in office of the legislative branches at Washington Twelve million citizens with one colored American in Congress has been often pointed out by students of political economy, both here and abroad Negroes from France possessions sit as Deputies in the legislative tribunal in Paris. The political anomaly of a natural legislature with no representation of a race numbering twelve million citizens will be removed, if the voters at Harlem do their duty. The St. Luke Herald of Richmond urges the dismissal of the annuated opinion that Negroes should a war strive to act like white folks. It is plained as follows: The Negrens' conditions and experiences in their environment and extent of oppressions have given them a natural background different from other peoples and races. For this cause, colored people should express themselves in their own characteristics, master of thought and creative art. There is an emotional necessity which the Negrens possess in keeping with their tribulations and primal stacles. This is expressed in forms or religion poetry, "Negro Spirals" and psychic materials for great dramatic passions and expressions. In a way in spite of all our persuasion: Negrees have a limitoria to eating like white folks. Our African folks, he it said to their credit, have never gone to the extremes of the greeting and cigarette smoking of the opposite races. There has always been a commendable reserve that has manifested itself in a trustworthy moderation of manner. It is by ourselves magnified under the influence of culture. If this advice is directed against the imitation of the fads and follies of the other race well and good. But it is better to admit that 'there must be a degree of worthy imitation in our moral civil and social forms of culture.' So there you are. In an account of a wedding invited in the news columns of the Louisville Leader, the reporter wrote, A very impressive, and lasting ceremony will be long remembered by those who witnessed it. That it will be lasting is a good deal to predict of a marriage ceremony in these days of marrying in haste and repenting quite as hastily. Perkins Kentucky unions of hearts and hard remain on a more permanent base. President has to fulfill is to find not for them to hold. The Negro forces of Mr. Coolidge argue that a man has assumed office he has been burdened with problems far outweighing exigencies of political patronage. Finally if given a second term, a judge will find means to save them. As far as the opinions of the present Negro leaders who have an opinion that they would not support him coming election is concerned the general feeling is that these men are sledged characters and may do as they think best, but fair and impartial. Davis has undoubtedly been in a dealings with Negroes, it is no fact that the Negro will be benefited more by his election than by Mr Coolidge. It is remembered that Davis is, after all a man and the candidate of the southern party. It is doubtful the defection of his leaders will influence on the colored voter who things for himself. Whether these opinions are wrong we cannot say.

Saturday, September 27, 1924 Church Acti In Greater New Church Activities In Greater New York The 11th verse of the 21th chapter of St. Matthew was the portion of the Bible that afforded the theme for the morning session. After explaining the symbolic significance of the principal characters, of the parable, of the unhidden guest at the marriage feast, the pastor went on to stress the unlon that Christ desires between Himself and his fellow angel, to argue that in keeping with the thoughest parable we put on the wedding garment, as no excuse will be accepted when Christ has made it so easily done. A special service was held at the Lyceum hour. The Ladies' Aid Society arranged a pew rally and raised quite a sum. The Rev. R. G. Waters of Orange was to have preached, but because of illness was prevented and Rev. Joseph Philips served in his stead. W. Woods, a gospel singer, rendered some touching selections. At the Epworth League the junior choir took charge of the topic discussion and also presented a fine musical program. The children are being trained by Mrs. Jennie Meyers, their new superintendent, and are making fine progress. Rudolph Grant, choirmaster left suddenly for his home in Jacksonville, Fla., to attend the funeral of his brother. Interest is manifested in the services and entertainments marking the last two weeks of abode in the present building. All are waiting with keen concern the approach of the first Sunday in October which will mark the triumphant entry into the new edifice.

Oliver, pastor delivered an inspiring and helpful message to his people, last Sunday morning, directed primarily to the Christians. The text is found in St. John 717. If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God or the speech of God or Oliver's subject "Experimental Christianity." The death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ were very important features in the affairs of our Saviour. As a monument to the experimental Christians, we have the church. There is a vast difference between religion and Christianity. Any man might have religion, but he would not necessarily be a Christian. Man's possession of the Christian religion is often tainted and if he is a true follower of Christ, he will be able to stand the examination. To live an exemplary Christian life is to be an experimental Christian. We must times stand to the same test as the true test for evil, visit the slick, lend to the poor-provining that Christ is in us and we in Him. So that in the end, we like Christ, will leave a monument for our experimental Christianity. At 8 o'clock Rev. F. H. Butler, of Chicago, assistant secretary of the Epworth League, M. E.

Hogans; At the close of the lesson study, Rev. Hogans aoke a few words about two deceased teachers and workers in the church and Sunday school, Mrs. Medora E. Bolden and Mrs. Sarah C. Jackson. At 4:30 p.m. the Literary Society convened. The program was under the auspices of the B. M. y. I. Society, William H.

The evening service was opened at the usual hour 8 p. m. Pastor Bolden preached, from the them: "The World." Joseph Kisselman Baxter, mother of M. Medora E. Bolden, spent the day with us. She came over from Philadelphia on Thursday to attend the memorial service given hope for her daughter, the memorial service of Caleb Harcum, brother of Mrs. Fannie Brown, was conducted at the church on Thursday evening, following the memorial service. The dinner was served during the day by members of the Willing Workers. Newman Mem. Church. The two weeks' revival being conducted by Mrs. James, the evangelist, is ending this week. It has been successful and beneficial. Mrs. James has preached splendid sermons. At the service on Sunday night, one united with the church. The Sunday morning, the pastor, Rev Thomas W. Cooper, preached, taking as his text Isaiah 54:17, the subject being "Preservation of the Church." At 1 o'clock, Sunday school was well attended, and one new scholar joined. The school is rehearsing for tally day service on September 28 under direction of John H. Williams. At 3 p. m., the Rev. J. H. McMullen, pastor of Ralph Avenue A. M. E. Zion Church preached a special mon for the Red Army for the Ralph Avenue Church and a number of the members were present. The Rev. D cummings, with members of his congregaiton at St. John's A. M. E. Church, Howard avenue, also worelifted with the Reds. Epworth League was in session at 7 p. m. under Mrs Carrie Harrison, president Mrs. Lula Hodge was at the organ doing the day. Fleet St. Church; Brooklyn The congregation at Fleet Street Church was undoubtedly led to an understanding of the new meaning of "Service", and helped to believe that one prospers best and longest who is concerned as to the welfare of the people, as with dynamic force. Rev. Brown presented his iteme, "Salvaging Humanity". There is no wonder, when a large number of persons declared themselves at the altar, who had previously believed themselves secure in a one time confession and profession, but found in the presentation of the sermon that they were not giving their best to the serving of humanity. At 3 p.m. holy communion was administered. Rev. H. W. Morrison, pastor of the Cosmopolitan Zionist Church, took the speaker. His visit, from Paul's letter to the Galatians 3.3, furnished a spiritual treat to an appreciative audience. At 7:45 The Pharisee and the Publican" was the theme presented by the pastor Special music was rendered during the day. The choir from Kosmopolitan Church rendered very excellent service during the communion. Among the out of town visitors during the day, were Dr. L. G. Mason, presiding elder, Mrs. J. E. C. Boyd and friends of Mount Vernon, N. Y., Mrs Brooks of Washington, D. C, and Mr Hathway of Mother Zoon Church. Manhattan The Sunday school was the recipient of the guest of the church. Sixteen persons joined the school. Tuesday evening the first quarterly conference for the church year was held. Notable progress was evidenced throughout the various reports. A class leader's rally is on Every class leader and their members are happy as they look forward with anticipations for the final results. Missionary Day* will be observed Sunday, September 28. A special program has been arranged for 3 oclock p. in, at which time the Rev C. P. Matthews, his church chair and ushers, will serve the Missionary forces at Fleet Street A phase of the church and its duty has received impetus, perhaps merited, in that the aged members are receiving consideration that was herefore overlooked in the onward rush of things material. Members that are not able through illness or age to attend the communion service are brought to the church in automobiles and cared for and returned to their homes and places of abode in season. The pastor and board of stewards have worked this cut to the satisfaction of the church, and it is regarded by those benefited as a very happy fulfillment of the duty of the church towards their helpless members Miss Marian T. Hooks and Mrs M A Moore were the members from the Fleet Street Sunday school that attended the Regional Religious Education. Sunday school Convention held in Philadelphia last week.

X. Aug2-yr. First Emmanuel Church. At the eleven o'clock services as the church Sunday, Pastor Bolden preached from the following text: "The grass witheth the flower sedeth; but the word of our God shall stand for ever." Isaiah 40:8. Pastor Bolden said: The idea of the word of God standing forever was put in contrast by the prophet with withering grass and fading flower. The prophet, was intending to visualize the thought of change and decay in nature, and the fact that this permanent action changed God; the Word, is Eternal. In the natural world we behold the seasons come and go, and the hills and valleys show effects of the changing order. So it is, in the world of humanity. Society with its various groups and organizations, as well as the individual, show the effects, time and seasons. By social disintegration by migration and death, the personnel of institutions, social groups, and communities, show the effects of the word of God, that element of divinity beneath and running through the mind of man expressing itself for good in his visible world, stands forever. The gratey impulses and thoughts of individuals, luxurious and rich as they may appear; as well as the finest fragrant thoughtful ideas of the intellect, each and all withereth and fadeth, but the Word of God, that is embodied in our Lord Jesus the Emmanuel, standeth and declares that the word is our Creator, personal Lord and Saviour, for he says: "In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God and the word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him; and without Him was not anything made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light thineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended not." The light of loving person, this eternal life given, is shining to-day in the darkness of ignorance and superstition, of selfishness and hate, of black egotism, inviting through His apostles and through His disciples and believers, people to believe in Him, enter His BETHAL A.

MOTON, Principal Tuskegee Institute, Alabama: Nazareth Cong. Church. In his service on Tuesday the world night side up. De H. H. Proctor paid tribute to the power of the pen of Lincoln on the eve of the Gend, anniversary of the issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation, September 22, 1863. He was traced on storming the gates of Hell, in which he held that the church should attack, the powers of evil rather than resist merely. He made a plea for clemency for Louis Thompson, the 19-year old colored girl, sentenced to the death chair by Governor Pinchot of Pennsylvania. This plea was eloquently reinforced by Congressman Emanuel Cellar who was present. The whole audience endorsed a letter addressed to the Governor of Pennsylvania prepared by a committee of which James Williams was chairman. Among the visitors present during the day were F. F. F. Gowen, F. F. F. Gowen, Brooklyn; Miss Amnerstine Wattking, Clerkburg, W. Va.; Miss Mary King, hattanooga, Tenn.; oCongressman Cellar. S. J.

The Pastor will fill his pulpit at both services Sunday, speaking at the morning hour on "The Genius of Christianity," and at the evening time on "The Cross and the Crown." Bethany Baptist Church The members and friends of Bethany Baptist Church turned out in large numbers last Sunday to greet the pastor, Rev. Kimball L. Warren, on his return from his vacation. He brought to us a burdring message Sunday morning, which he delivered in such a forcible and impressive way that all who were present must have been touched, for the Holy Spirit moved among the congregation with such awake until men and women were forced to respond. The theme for the morning sermon was recorded in the 5th chapter of John. For the evening program, Dr. Warren gave us a general report of his vacation, the principal feature of which was a report from the National Baptist Convention which he attended at Nashville, Tenn. Bethany is still on the upward march, and the united forces are harmoniously working to make this, in all respects, the crowning of all previous years. Ashland Pl. Y. W. C. A.

OutlookBrightForHoward,LincolnandHampton"11's" Wilbur Wood, sport writer on the New York Sun, recently called public attention to the fact that although the Wills-Firpo bout had been advertised as an elimination contest with the winner to meet Jack Dempsey, a fight between Dempsey and Wills is no closer than it has been in the past three years. This writer predicted that Dempsey has probably fought his last battle in the prize ring and the only reason he hasn't announced his retirement is that it would injure his drawing ability as a motion picture star. He pointed out that Dempsey made close to a million dollars in three fights in the past three years, and can well afford, from a financial standpoint, to quit the game. He has never been anxious to meet Wills, and Tex Rickard, who has a monopoly on staging championship fights, has openly stated that he will not promote such a fight-even though he advertised that he would stage it before the bout. The champions only other bout in the offing is with Jack Renault, the Canadian heavyweight. There is a growing demand that Renault meet Wills before being given a chance against the champion. And should such about he staged it is practically certain that Wills would win. If the New York State Boxing Commision is sincere in its efforts to clean up boxing in the state, they might very well begin by forcing Rickard to go through with his agreement to stage a championship fight with the winner of the Wills-Firpo affair.

This is the first meeting of the two teams in the Quaker City, but already great interest is being shown in the game. Lincoln is a favorite Here but the game is certain to be a hard one.

Young African Musician Plans New Seventeen-Tone Piano Octave In The Realm of Music By Lucien H. White London Journal Comments On Ballanta-Taylor's Work The interesting chronicles relating to Nicholas G. Julius Baldwin a native of Freetown, Sierra Leone, West Africa, who settled New York for Sierra Leone by way of London, after two years at the Damrosch Institute of Musical Art, have come to me from London. The chronicles were printed originally in the columns of "West Africa" a magazine weekly published in London; the first, printed August 30 referring to Mr. Taylor's mission, a scientific study of African music, and the second, to the graduation composition submitted by Mr. Taylor as his thesis at conclusion of his work at the Damrosch Institute the past June. These comments contain matter of interest concerning Mr. Taylor's past and future work and plans, and of especial interest the estimation that Mr. Taylor is working on a new keyboard in the mandorce, to embrace an octave of seventeen notes, thus the nuances necessary for the absolute reproduction of the notes sounded in the music of Africa's natives, the foundation of American Negro folk song. Before leaving New York, Mr. Taylor told me of this particular development, and of having submitted his proposed keyboard scheme to men in control of one of the oldest and most important piano building companies in America, and of their declaring that the proposed scheme was feasible. In fact, I am in possession of a tough pencil sketch, showing the arrangement of black and white keys on a pianoforte in such manner as to produce seventeen notes to the octave instead of twelve, as the present scale provides a department printed in "West Africa" had the following to say at Mr. Taylor's mission. Mr. Taylor is going back to Sierra Leone to make a scientific study of Africa and when this is accomplished he is going to return to America to a new cellos and violas combine, we get passages which are of wonderful beauty and power. In fact, throughout the whole of Mr. Ballanta-Taylor's work one feels that he is expressing himself in real, muscular living language, which at times is so strong that the instruments employed are scarcely able to keep up. himself in the interests of himself in West Africa. The seer search tour is to last about a half in that time Mr Taylor pre- goes to the interior of Sierra Leone to visit the Gambah, Gold Coast Sierra Leone and Nigeria territory, most of which he had already covered when he was in the Government servi- ce to me of his forthcoming im- migration. Mr Taylor said that West African music has great possibilities, and if developed, a side not yet con- ceived in harmonic melody would be light. The jazz now so much harder to was not African music. Any popular time for jazz was cast rhythm perhaps, but Afri- can as all Africans knew.

In fact, throughout the whole of Mr Ballanta-Taylor's work one feels that he is expressing himself in real, musical living language, which at times is so strong that the instruments employed are scarcely able to keep pace with this thought. There is no sign of hurry in the work, however Rather, it reveals to us a sense of the composer's desire to give to the world a strong and beautifully imaginative composition. To hear 'Africa and the Africans' once is to understand the composer's line of thought, but one has to become familiar with the music in order to appreciate the fullness of its beauty. In this overture there are none of those disintegrating and emphatic barring elements which mark the work of some modern composers. Supreme harmony united to keep 'knowledge of musical effects governs the composition, and renders it a joy to study and perform. Therefore one can say without exaggeration that in some passages, where the harmony is expressed in effective triplets, one is forcibly reminded of bars in Wagner's "Pilgrim's Chorus." Throughout the overture patient study and thorough work are required from exery instrument. For the composition is by no means easy. Just as Mr Ballanta-Taylor has put into this overture thought, musical knowledge and a deep sense of harmony, so must the interpreters of his music exercise their utmost skill in order to do the work justice. To thorough musicians the study of Africa and the Africans' ought to be a task of intense interest, and one hopes that Mr Ballanta-Taylor will find orchestras which will rise to the occasion. The closing bars of the overture are extremely effective, and end with deep chords and harmonious triplet measures, which produce, naturally, exceptionally fine orchestral effects This musical work gives one the impression of being composed by one not only a skilled artist, but gifted with a fine musical nature—A A C. MIKELL COMPOSES NEW SONG FOR 369TH MIKELL COMPOSES NEW SONG FOR 369TH One of the most enjoyable features of the recent two weeks at Camp Smith Peekskill, N.Y., the state's military instruction field, spent by the 369th Infantry, New York National Guard was the musical atmosphere generated through the work of the regimental band under command of Lieut. T. Fugene Mikell. Although the full membership was not present because of the fact that a number of the men could not arrange their business affairs to be absent for the entire two weeks those men who were in camp gave of their ability and effort unintentionally. Then on weekends, many of those unable to leave the city during the week would reach the camp on Saturday afternoon and stay over until Sunday evening. And when the ranger returned to its home armory on last Sunday afternoon those previously missing met their comrade at the detraining point and joined ranks to march through Harlem streets to the armory. One of the striking features of the music at camp was the manner in which the entire regiment quickly learned the words and music of a new regimental song composed by Lieut. Mitchell and which was sung on every possible occasion. Col. Little enthused by the music, had the quilters learn the song and it was sung at every mass assembly. Sheets containing the words were circulated among the soldiers, and the words were thrown on the escreen of the camp's big moving picture theatre. And so, whenever a group of the men assembled together, when companies would be marching into camp after strenuous effort on the drill ground, when battalions were relaxing from exhausting movements en masse or the entire regiment was assembled in ranks, the new and inspiring musical composition, the "569th Regimental Song" would be its heard, its ringing melody and stirring words inspiring the men to fresh effort and causing them to forget fatigue and weariness. CADET BAND RESUMES AND STUDIO REOPENS Speaking of Lieut. Mikell reminds me that on Friday of this week, the 26th, the activities of the 369th Cadet Band will be resumed at the armory under his direction. The boys have had a rest during the summer months, but they have not lost their enthusiasm and many of them have made inquiries as to when they could start in again. Lieut Mikell tells me also that his private studio at 328 West 52nd street is already opened and that a goodly enrollment of old and new pupils marked the opening of the 1924-25 season. In addition to his regimental and private studio duties, Mikell has bands and pupils under instruction, requiring his presence at Bordentown, Newark and Jersey City, one night each, every week. The regimental band continued actively on duty throughout the entire summer, so "Gene" keeps pretty busy. Hamilton Hodges Returns Two or three weeks ago, Hamilton Hodges, barbone, returned to Boston after having spent the past twenty years or more in Auckland, New Zealand, where he enjoyed the highest favor as an exponent of the singing art and did much to elevate musical standards in that country. He conducted a studio in which he taught aspiring students how to sing and won for himself a ranking as one of the leading singers on that island. Mr. Hodges is a brother of Mrs. Margaret H Robinson of the office of Nail and Parker real estate brokers, 145 West 151st street, New York City, and he is located now in his Boston home at 73 Camden street. He intends remaining permanently in America and will soon be heard on the recital platform. In commenting on his work in Auckland, the New Zealand Free Lance had the following to say about him. "Mr Hodges is helping to raise the standards of musical taste in this community for he includes nothing tawdy or his program. He has a cultured, artiste judge and as he is always on the alert for new music of a high standard we are delighted to him for a knowledge of many fine songs." It is a pleasure to welcome Mr. Hodges back to America and I hope he will give New Zealand a earl's portion to judge of his accomplishments. DEACON JOHNSON'S MUSICAL COLUMN We are wondering how many music leaders recognize the fact that with the entertainment season of 1924-25 comes the demand for the highest standard of Musicianship? How many muststan and entertainers are ready to compete? What are the organizations doing to meet the competition? How many leaders and combinations are READY and WILLING to prepare themselves for BETTER MUSICAL SERVICE? Greater New York affords the greatest and most fertile hold on earth for musical entertainment in all lines, as well as musical education and we all can become as great as we will to do. Jargos Reese Europe pointed the way as early as 1910 and 1911. Miller and Lyles and Sissie and Blake have given our group of musicians and entertainers a new lease on life and health that will allow us another three to nine years to perfect a system of musical service which will grow and thus serve through the ages of time and forever. To entertain their patrons the musician and entertainer must have an audience to hold and gain audiences you must have a PROGRAM To have a high standard program musicians and entertainers must rehearse together under a competent coach—you must have practiced your instrument or voice. To practice your instrument or voice properly and be one in a thousand (and not one of the nine hundred and ninety-nine) you must be taught by a MASTER THEN YOU WILL BE READY TO BEGIN TRYING TO MAKE MONEY FAME, and, MAYBE A FORTUNE Thus the season of 1924 and 1925 will bring making new under the sun but will only emphasize the fact to the leaders and commanders that the condition was fulfilled in the MASTER's hands of business. JAMES FISHER LLOYD and now demonstrated MILLER and JAMES SMITH and FAKE JOHN T RICK JOHN SMITH and PLETCHER HENDERSON aggreations Say Police Aid Effort To Put Negro"Numbers" Bankers Out Of Business (Continued from Pillar Page) came in and the other man in the store quickly got out Powell, thinking nothing, remained at the counter. One of the officers picked up an envelope laying on the floor not far from Powell on which was written a list of numbers. Powell was accused of having had it in his possession and was put under arrest. He was not permitted any opportunity to identify himself or to secure assistance, but on the way to the 135th street police station, the two officers stopped and talked to a man on Seventh avenue, who was afterward identified by Powell as Moe Immerman. Powell was quickly exonerated and released when arraigned in the Washington Heights Court, and later, when a friend identified Moe Immerman to him, he was told by Moe that the officers stopped and find out if Powell was one of the Immerman employee, and if so, he would have been released. Did Moe Inspire Raid? Another instance, in which a raid on the premises at 31 West 143rd street, in which John Diamond of 104 East 122nd street and E. Jordan alleged to be Diamond's bookkeeper at the 143rd stet address were arrested, was declared to have followed close upon a whispered conference between one of the raiding officers and Moe Immerman. The officers making the arrests, according to records at the station, were Officers Stanton and White of the 12th Division. Moa's Office Raided In this connection it is reported that officers from down town, seemingly not in touch with the Immerman contacts made a raid on the Immerman "numbers" headquarters, said to be at 2427 Seventh avenue, in an apartment sub-rented from a tenant at that number, and for which he pays the tenant $100 a week. Immerman is said to be seen each morning on the Seventh avenue block between 141st and 142nd streets when he walks up and down the pavement until around 11 o'clock, when his collectors come in to make their report of the morning's coelections, when he takes them up to his quarters to check up on tehir work. Information received by The Age is to the effect that throughout Harlem there is a concerted white "numbers" bankers, aided and abetted by their police friends, to harass and worry the Negro "bankers" by raids and arrests until they are discouraged and driven out of the business. Then there will be a monopoly of the profits for the Immerman group and others affiliated with that group Thomas and Thomas, Inc. Now Located In Own Building On W.140th St Thomas and Thomas.

PATROLMAN R.CARTER GETS JEWELRY THIEF Popular Traffic Officer At 135th And Lenox Avenue Collarn Fleeling Robber When Ralpholman Reuben Carter, Traffic 'B', who directs traffic at One Hundred and Thirty-fifth street and Lenox avenue, raises his hand with a malletic gesture, all within the radius of Traffic Officer RUBEN CARTER's command come to addead stop. Earl Olivier 'Thirty-two', a porter, 2355 Seventh avenue, attempted to "rush in where angels fear to tread" and came to grief when he disregarded the officer's command of "Stop!" Oliver entered the jewelry store of Joseph Roth, at 508 Lenox avenue, and asked Abraham Greenberg, the clerk to show him some "classy sparklers." Evidently the clerk followed the request too thoroughly, for the prospective customer became so enthused over one of the specimens that he walked out without paying Greenberg, who had turned his back, saw Oliver leaving and cried "Stop thief!" A crowd took up the chase, but the pursued semed in a fair way of making good his escape when he was unfortunate enough to pass Officer Carter's post. This unwarranted disregard for "less majeste" bothered the traffic cop, who collared the fleeing porter at One Hundred and Thirty-seventh street and Lenox avenue. The ring was found in his possession. When arraigned the prisoner was held for further hearing. Roanoke. Va - Issaac Anderson is under arrest, charged with having caused the death of his step-daughter, Miss Australia Wiley, on September 3. The girl's body was found in the garden of Mrs. W P Norris, Broad street, and nine others had been arrested on suspicion Sheriff Tallaferover was not satisfied, and close questioning of Anderson nally brought the admission that he had struck the girl over the heart in an altercation which arose when he rebuked her for coming home at a late hour. The mother of the dead girl is also being held, but the other prisoners have been released. New Rochelle Church Goes Into Bankruptcy; To Auction Property New Rochelle N. Y—Union Baptist Church the Rev J. E. Jeune pastor, was forced into bankruptcy last week when an action was brought by creditors to pay unpaid bills. Fred M. Pudgeon tuner, who was awarded a judgment of $100 against the church for work done and John F. Kopp, who holds a mortgage of $6,000 on the church were named as defendants in the action of bankruptcy, as the law compels the plantiffs to name all lien holders'. The church was sold in December, 1922, to the Union Baptist organization by the St Paul's German M. E Church. For a year it seemed to prosper, but lately the members have not been sufficient in numbers and did not contribute enough to pay the pastor's salary and the expenses of maintaining the church. An order has been signed for the church and let to be sold at public auction together with the organ chair and all equipment in White Plains on October 1. Place Wreath On Statue Of The Great Emancipator An impressive ceremony attended the placing of a wreath upon the statue of Abraham Lincoln by colored citizens on the 1st anniversary of the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation. The color squad of the famous 1908 New York under Lieutenant W. Woodruff Chisum and Sergeant George Thompson, stood at attention as a beautiful floral piece was placed at the feet of the great emancipator. Preceding the formal placing of the floral piece by a little Harlem lass Florine Dabney, Chaplain A. C.anner of the 160th invoker a continuance of the honors of Providence on the race race by Lincoln and for the other race for whom he asked a guidance. The wreath itself was the gift of Charles Mitchell a relative of the late Frederica Douglass. Rev William R. Lawson of the Rendall Memorial Presbyterian Church paid tribute to the great emanator.

Oscar Pindic, one of Hampton's mainstays in her line last season the sixty-odd knights of the pigskin who have reported are rapidly rounding into condition under the skilled tutelage of coaches Charles H Williams, Gideon E. Smith, and William S. Parker In fact the entire athletic program of Hampton has brighter outlooks for seasons that lead to championships than it has had in many years, in the opinion of those closest to Hampton's athletic life. Football, basketball, track, tennis, and baseball are slated to come into no small share of the success that indications point out for the "Seaiders" this year Hampton plays every team in the Colleged Intercollegiate Athletic Association this year and one non-member. On October 4 she opens the season with Durham State Normal at Hampton, tackles Virginia Seminary and College the following Saturday, and then plays her first big game away from home in Norfolk the following Saturday against the St. Paul "Tigers". This is undoubtedly going to be one of the most colorful and thrilling struggles of the year; St Paul thirsty for revenge because of her recent defeats by the "Seasiders", and Hampton staunchly believing that "They shall not pass". Already reports show that League Park in Norfolk will be filled to overflowing on October 18. Special trains will he run for rooters who do not live in the immediate vicinity of the seaport town.

Business men, artists and educators are showing interest and co-operation with the program of the Aladdin Cruise which sails January 15 for tropical waters, according to developments within the last week. At a conference in the Hotel Martique a few days ago business interests represented by the members of the National Association of Manufacturers received news of this inter-racial enterprise with enthusiasm. It was freely discussed, that the cruise would 'bring about' the opportunity for round table talks between both groups of business men with the idea that some national institute looking after the needs of the Negro business communities would be evolved. At another conference, the cooperation of B. C. Whitney the theatrical man who is backing Styla & Lake was obtained and Mr. Whitney indicated his desire to be among the passengers. Capt. Schmid Abdullah international writer and author of the "Hour of Bigdad" has expressed a desire to go to His Royal Highness Prince of Dahome a graduate of the University of Paris, has through his secretary, appointed the New York office that he would like to be a passenger. Arrangements are being made. Institution at 38 W. 138rd St. Furnishes Moat Modern Facilities For Care Of Tots, Two to Six Years Old. A new born king would not likely receive more tender care than the happy little youngsters that frolic and play at the Hope Day Nursery, 33 West 133rd street, New York City. This institution for colored children was chartered by the State Board of Charities at the Capitol, Albany, N. Y.; October 11, 1911, and is now being conducted by Mrs. Odelia Jackson, a capable and suitable woman for the position of matron-in-charge. In the basement of the building is the recreation room for three dozen or more children, furnished with small tables, chairs, playthings and folding wall beds, in which each child is strictly required to rest at least two hours each day, according to the law. A cemented back yard gives the children a safe place to play in the open air where it is dry and clean. Visitors are received in the drawing room on the first floor, at being fitted with a piano, book cases, drawing table, chairs and other furnishings, and decorations. One flight up is the nursery proper. Miss Melena C. Lee is the head nurse with two assistants. On this floor is the rest rooms in which small iron beds are fitted with blankets, sheets and spreads that are kept sanitary, clean and neat. The ventilation is adequate and the interior is spotless white—soap and water being used freely. "On the same floor is the toilet and wash room and one of the cutest little dining rooms ever dreamed of by a writer of fairy stories. A small table, not as high as a foot stool, accompanies little tots from two to six. They use individual dishes and the kitchen where the taste, wholesome food is prepared is so unique that it does not look like a kitchen at all. On the top floor is the dormitory where the matron, the nurse and their assistants live and it has all the comforts of a model home. On the same floor is the Isolation Room. It is for children who show some signs of ill- to adjust the dramatic affairs of Paul Robeson to have him go on the cruise representing the Negro in drama.

Overtures are being made to the officials of the New York Public Library to establish a circulating library on board the steamship Mount Clay under the supervision of Miss Ernestine Rost of the West 135th Street Branch, including books on the history of the West Indies and South America. Philanthropists have indicated their desire to give a travel scholarship to persons who are particularly worthy and who would be interested in recording the reactions of this interracial enterprise. William F. Homan of Brooklyn, a broker, has offered such a scholarship ness, for they are confined in this room as sooth as the symptoms appear and the physician in charge, Dr. Leo Kirk Nearon, is immediately summoned: It has been customary for the clients to remember the Hope Day Nursery every Thanksgiving Day; also friends in and out of town bring in send donations at Christmastime, New Years and Easter. Among those who have supported the nursery. In the past may be mentioned Mrs Francis Cameron, Philip A Payton, D. H. West, Edmond Penfold and daughter, Mia Augusta, Polhemus, Miss Helen Emerson, and Attorney L. Hollinsworth, Wood. Some of the organizations that have contributed nice things are the School Girls' Club, Hearts and Flowers Guild, Knights Templars, Pastor's Aid Society, The Needle-Work Guild, Mate Kemp Dancink Dolls, The Walton Parent's Club and others. Service is rendered dependent mothers who work out and their little ones are cared for. A word of praise, as well as many thanks, is due to the loyal ones who have treated the children to toys, flowers, pop-corn, ice cream, candy, oranges, turkeys, Christmas trees, new and useful garments, musical entertainments, and many other things that gladden the hearts of childhood. The entire building, which is devoted solely to the nursery is planned, arranged and conducted on an up-to-date basis. It is steam heated, sanitary, airy, roomy, cheery, electric lighted, with modern conveniences. The officers, managers and advisory board are reputable men and women. Mrs. Jackson the matron, herself being a mo ther, is a devoted lover of children. Her pleasant disposition, tenderness and kindness, has won the heart of every child, for she has made a sweet pet of each one of them GOOLIDGE - VICTORY Chicago, Ill.-Maj. John R. Lynch, former member of the Republican National Committee, and temporary chairman of the 1884 Republican National Convention, spent some time in conference here at Republican headquarters. "Maj. Lynch's bet this year is that Coolidge will win, thus defeating any possibility that the election will be thrown into the House of Representatives. "The character of Coolidge," said Maj. Lynch, "is the main hold of the Republican Patty, and his manager, William M. Butler, belongs in the class of our great chairmen.
