Crystalizing of Sentiment Seen By Wise Observers Tends To Show Intention on Part of Voters To Give Full Support To Dr. Charles H. Roberts For Congress; And To Other Race Candidates. The general interest in the forthcoming election, both National and State, is indicated forcibly by the greatly increased registration of voters in Greater New York. This increase was shown in all of the five boroughs constituting Greater New York, and is approximately fifty per cent. more than the registration of 1928, and thirty to forty per cent. more than were enrolled for the 1922 gubernatorial contest. Mr. the credit for this unusual interest due to the splendid work done by the women. The suffragists put their suffragists on the wheel with unrending torches and were active day and night, striving the neglectful voters with devotion of qualifying themselves for casting of their votes on November 4. These women made house arrests, and did not let up their name was written andation books closed.

The increased registration is not only an index of interest interest which the masses have in the political situation; it is pointed to by wine pots, by the media, by the politically healthy tendency on part of both old and new voters, men and women, to participate in naming the country's lawmakers. EX-CONG. RYAN IS MAKING A-STRONG RACE FOR SHERIFF EX-CONG. RYAN IS MAKING A-STRONG RACE FOR SHERIFF One of the most energetic campaigns of the present political contest is the one being waged by Thomas Jefferson Ryan, Republican candidates for Sheriff of New York County. Mr. Ryan was formerly in Congress from the 15th N. Y. District. While serving in this capacity, Congressman Ryan was really the author of the Anti-Ku Klux-Bill, and he denounced the hooded organization from the floor of the House. It was largely through his efforts that the anti-klan plank was incorporated in the Republican state platform. Ex-Congressman Ryan is a New York boy, having been born in 1890, and was educated in the public schools, City College and Fordham University, where he took his law course. He was admitted to the New York bar in 1912. He has a splendid war record. After graduating from the 2nd Reserve Officers' Training Camp at Plattsburg, he served as an aviator in France and was wounded, clitched and decorated for gallantry in action. Colored voters throughout New York County are interesting themselves in Mr. Ryan's candidacy and the indications are that they will receive the full measure of their support.

Divers followed his wife, and, recording to witnesses, threatened violence to Mrs. Divers and Hairston, who had interceded in his sisters' behalf. In the fight that followed Divers was slashed on head, breast neck. Officers found his unconscious on the sidewalk in front of Hairston's home, and removed the wounded man to his own home across the street, where he died within a few minutes.

Every man and woman who believes in race representation should back up the candidacy of CHARLES H. ROBERTS. The man or woman who will refuse to vote for him, will be disloyal to the race. The race has its final opportunity in the North to send a man of the Negro race to Congress. Loyalty will do it. Disloyalty will not. To help him in his campaign you should also contribute financially. Will you do it? Do it today, and every day until the polls close, Tuesday, November 4. Churches and all organizations are urged to do their duty. CHARLES H. ROBERTS must go to Congress. Contributions can be sent to The New York Age. FRED R. MOGRE Notorious Bootleggers Resume Operations In Harlem, Despite Police Immermans and Goldgrabens Alleged to Be Opening Speakeasies Under Various Forms, In Many Parts of the Community, and Are Selling Ville, Permanent Concoctions Under the Name of Whiskey and Gin. In defiance of recent activities of the prohibition enforcement and police officials in the closing up of a number of Harlem's most notorious hooch hell holes it is alleged on what appears to be a substantial basis that the bootleggers are again engaging in the traffic of vile and poisonous liquors which masquerades as whisky and gin, but which are really rank and dangerous concoctions. The most notorious of Harlem's bootlegging element in time past were the Immermans and the Goldgrabs. And information is that these two groups, although most of their places have been closed by the Federal authorities under injunction proceedings, are opening up speakeries under various guises in different parts of Harlem, and are dispensing to the public liquors that endanger the life and health of every man taking a drink of the stuff. Boasts of Bribery. Charles Salotar, another bootlegger who became conspicuous through recent developments, in which it was shown that he, had his personal activities behind various other individuals who permitted their names to be used and who were always made the "goat" when officers raided the hooch joints, boasts of his im- dancing. In this connection, it is stated that the Federal Court injunction against this resort restraining Connie Immerman and certain of his employees from selling intoxicating liquors applies only to the individuals named, and that this has been contraverted by the placing of George Immerman on charge of the Inn. George is a brother to Connie. Much comment has been caused by the seeming indifference of police officials to what is called a flagrant disregard of the law and to the manner in which a Federal Court injunction and ruling is flousted. The question is being asked. How can the place be operated so boldly and openly unless the police officers are in cahoot with the proprietors? This indicating, of course, a criminal association. Old and New Hooch Joints In Harlem The most notorious of Harlem's bootlegging element in time past were the Immermans and the Goldgrabs. And information is that these two groups, although most of their places have been closed by the Federal authorities under injunction proceedings, are opening up speakeasies under various guises in different parts of Harlem, and are dispensing to the public liquors that endanger the life and health of every man taking a drink of the stuff. Boasts of Bribery. Charles Salotar, another bootleger who became conspicuous through recent developments, in which it was shown that he had his personal activities behind various other individuals who permitted their names to be used, and who were always made the "goat" when officers raided the hooch joints, boasts of his immunity from interference by either Federal agents or local police. And from the boldness with which he operates and his apparent freedom from even occasional raids, he boasts with good reason. Federal prohibition officials and the officials of the Police Department are placed in an unavoidable predicament by these conditions, say observers who are familiar with developments. It is up to them, it is said, to take such action as will remove the cloud of suspicion from over their heads and prove Salotar to be boasting without a basis for his venal suggestions that he has won to this immunity by jidicious and liberal bribing of various officials. No License for Connie's. Notwithstanding that Connec's Inn was refused a renewal of its dance hall license by Liceuse Commissioner William F. Qugley, that resort is open nightly, and it is reported on good authority that guests of the place are permitted to dance freely and without restraint. There is a gorgeona reeve shown, put on by Leonard Harper, the performance coming at 2:05 and 2 a.m., but both before, during and after the performances, the floor is turned over to patrons of the place for 12TH ST -211 W, 243 W; 256 W; 260 W 13ND ST -1 W. 13RD ST -1 E; 23 W 14th ST -100 W, 264 W 13TH ST -31 W, 53 W, 73 W; 114 W 13TH ST -101a W, 112 W;. 13TH ST -100 W 13TH ST -69 W, 143 W. 13TH ST -159 W 14TH ST, 100 W, 200 W, 251 W.

DISBARRED LAWYER SEEKS TO ANNUAL Man Who Wants To Void 14th Amendment Disbarred In Washington — Credentials Fraudulent. Washington, D. C. --H. E. Bolte, who jumped into noterelity last week by attacking the citizenship of Walter L. Cohen of New Orleans, seeking to oust Cohen from the office of controller of customs of the Port of New Orleans and basing the attack on what he claims is the unconstitutionality of the 14th Amendment to the U. S. Constitution, is revealed here as a disbarred lawyer. Bolte was admitted to the local bar after presenting apparently authentic credentials that he had practised before the Supreme Court of Texas, and practiced about two years, but he was disbarred on May 6 last when it was discovered that he had misrepresented matters—and that his credentials were fraudulent. He came to Washington after the world war and operated a chain of grocery stores before beginning to practice law. After disbarment Bolte went to Florida and organized the National Liberal League, an organization having for its purpose the disfranchisement of the Negro. He went to New Orleans the latter part of September, it being thought he was writing a book on the Ku Klux Klan. TAXI BANDITS ROB TWO 8TH AVE. STORES WITHIN 20 MINUTES Two holdups in Harlem on Monday night, one that of a pharmacy near 131st street and the other a cigar store near 137th street, are attributed by police officers and objectives to a pair of Negro bandits who used a taxicab in making their get-away. The Koch Pharmacy at 2482 Eighth avenue was the first place attacked, and the proprietor and his prescription clerk were forced into a back room at pistol point. The raid netted them $86.70. Twenty minutes later, the United Cigar Store at 2634 Eighth avenue was entered by two men who locked the clerk in a back room. For some reason, the robbers were frightened off without getting any spoils. Detectives were in the Koch Pharmacy investigating the first robbery when the second attempt was made. H. Oysterback, soldier, told Detectives in Graffield and Connelly that the two men entered the store as she was leaving for home. He followed them back into the store, but they leveled automatics at him and at his son-law A. G. Huddesheimer who was behind the prescription counter. After looting the cash register they ran out and jumped into a taxcowhil'r Huddesheimer, who followed them out, fired three times without effect. More patrolmen are needed in the 10th Preserve. There would be fewer hold ups if there was a larger force for patrol duty. The detectives and police are doing good work but our observation is that more men are needed on 8th Avenue. Seventh and eighth streets. Many of the streets are inadequately covered. A traffic officer is also needed at 7th avenue and 13th Street. We ask commissioners to kindly give attention. Police Ordered To Stop Use Of Stool Pigeons For Securing Evidence The New York Age is reliably informed that orders have been issued by the heads of the Police Department warning patrolmen and detectives against having anything to do with stoolpigeons, and that charges will be preferred against any officer who disregards this order. On Tuesday morning, in the 12th District Court, Chas. H., Dancey, the notorious police stool pigeon, had a preliminary hearing on a grand larceny charge made by S. Lindo of 206 West 140th street Dancey was out on $1,000 bonds on this charge. City Magistrate Edward Weil, after hearing the charges, adjourned the case to Wednesday, October 22, and increased Dancey's bail from $1,000 to $2,500. More Police Needed! Witnesses Testify That Shooting Occurred After Slain Man Had Refused Miller's Request for $100. Court Rules Out Evidence As To Characten of Club. Resort Conducted At 134th Sf., and 7th Ave., By Barron Wilkins. A bloody shirt, a black suit, a gray overcoat, and a gray felt hat, with black band, were exhibited in Justice McIntyre's part of the Court of Special Sessions Tuesday morning as evidence against Julius William Miller alias "Yellow Charleston" who is on trial for his life charged with killing Barron D. Wilkins, noted cabaret keeper of "YELLOW CHARLESTON" Three eye-witnesses, a woman tenant, "Yum Yum," and the chauffeur who was employed by Wilkins, testified that they saw "Yellow Charleston" fire the shot that killed Barton D. Wilkins last spring. The first testimony was heard Friday, October 10, when Dr Charles Norris chief medical examiner of the City of New York, who conducted the autopsy at the Morgue; testified of the bullet holes in the clothing of the deceased Meeting For Cardinal Gibbons Institute At St. Mark's Hall, Sunday The parish hall of St Mark's R. C Church, West 183th street, near Lenox avenue, was filled on Sunday afternoon for a meeting in behalf of the Cardinal Gibbons Institute, Ridge, St Mary's Co. Md., of which V. H. Daniel is principal. D J. Francis, who is chairman of the local committee which has been formed to work for the Cardinal Gibbons school, presided at the meeting, and the 909th Infantry regimental hand led by Lieut. Porter, played a number of selection. Speeches in behalf of the work were made by L. Hollingsworth Wood, Fred L. Moore, Chas. Winters' Wood of Buckeye Institute, the Very, Rev. Fr. Plunket of St Mark's Church, and Victor H. Daniel, principal of the school. A goodly amount was subscribed and substantial cash contribution made by those present. Other numbers on the program were a recitation by Mrs. Beatrice Smith, and a solo by Mrs Eliza Danielson accompanied by Mrs Hanly, organist of St Mark's Church. --- Bullet Exhibited and their correspondence with the wound on Barron Wilkins' body, The long lead bullet of 38 calibre which caused the death of Wilkins by severing a large artery, causing a hemorrhage, was exhibited in court. He also testified that there were wounds on the forehead, the right wrist and the rights arm pit of the deceased. Tuesday morning's testimony began with Edwin Van Kust relating the fatal incident by swearing that he had just walked up to Barron Wilkins, who was standing outside of his place on 134th street, near 7th avenue, talking to "Yum Yum," when "Yellow Charleston" walked up and asked Wilkins for $100. Wilkins told him, that he didn't have that much money in his pocket, "Charleston" had walked back and fired, Wilkins caught his right side and stooping around the corner, "Charleston" following, firing two more shots, then turning around the corner and turning East on 134th street. Kust further stated that he helped Wilkins into a taxicab and went with him to the Harlem Hospital. After a cross examination of Kust, "Yum Yum" was called. Questions Ruled Out Attempts to introduce underworld affairs into the case were overruled by the court. The objection "of the district attorney to the counsel for the defense asking one witness if he saw white girls with colored men in the cabaret was sustained. Objection to asking the woman witness as to the character of the cabaret owned by the deceased wasustained. The magistrate upheld the district attorney in his objection in that the witness had previously stated that she had never visited the resort of Wilkins. "Yum Yum" Parker, so called on account of a slight impediment in his speech, was the next to testify, being the third since the testimony began Friday. He swore that he was standing along side of Wilkins, when Miller, known as "Yellow Charleston", came up and said to Wilkins, "Now, I got you," and began firing. He testified that after the first shot, Wilkins started south on Seventh avenue and "Charleston" followed and fired two more shots, then turned and pointed the gun at him "Yum Yum" swore that when "Charleston" menaced him with the gun he squatted, begging, "Don't shoot me." "Yum Yum" finished his direct examination by testifying that he helped put Wilkins in a taxi, and later went for the brother. A Foolish Question The court laughed when the counsel for the defense asked "Yum Yum" if he did not see the fatal bullet coming to Wilkins, Judge McIntyre informed him that one is not likely to see a bullet in its course. The first conflict between the attorney was caused by objection, by the district attorney to counselor O'Connor, confusing "Yum Yum" on a series of contrary questions relating to the action of the defendant and the witness after the first shot had been fired. The court ruled that O'Connor had not given "Yum Yum" a reasonable chance to understand his questions. Mrs Sarah' Lewis testified that she was up stairs in her house when she heard the first shot fired, which the thought was an automobile tire explosion. She looked out of the window and saw "Yellow Charleston" fire a second shot at Wilkins, then she screamed and fell back into the room, hearing a third shot that twas all. The court adjourned until Wednesday.

DAVIS DENIES LILY WHITE TENDENCIES Civil Service Commissioner Ferdinand Q Morton has received a communication from John W Davis in which the Democratic Presidential candidate makes reference to his record on matters affecting the Negro. Said Mr Davis. In the Democratic Convention of 1908, Mr Louis Bennett was nominated Democratic candidate for Governor, and it was the delegates who supported him who advocated the introduction of a so-called 'Lily-white' plank in the Democratic platform. As a delegate to this convention I placed in nomination Thomas F. Hodges, who was opposed to the adoption of this plank, and I advocated his candidacy throughout the convention. "It would seem to me that my successful fight in the Supreme Court against certain peonage laws and my efforts which had the result of having the Supreme Court of the United States declare unconstitutional the so-called Grandfather Clause in the Constitution of the State of Oklahoma should be sufficient answer to any falsehoods which may now be circu- tute the Negro race."

When the addresses were over a general discussion was held and there was considerable enthusiasm shown for the Republican candidate. A resolution was passed endorsing him as a candidate and urging public support. DEMOCRATS FAIL IN EFFORT TO WIN THE NEGRO FROM G.O.P. Chicago, Ill.—The success which has followed the colored organization within the Republican party, practically sewing up Negro support in the coming election, has forced the Democratic party and the Third party, lead by LaFollette, to grenier attempts to deal with and entice away the northern Negro voter. The action on the part of the Democrats is not restricted to those of the north but is being undertaken by southern Democrats as well. It is understood that both LaFollette and the Democrats preferred to sit tight at the beginning of the present campaign and profit from the discontent which was known to be among the Negro voters. Those leaders who had been watching the signs predicted that the Negro was angry and that with the coming of November there was going to be abreaking up of his vote which would spell storm to the Republican party and bring profit to some other. Naturally, it was felt that Negroes would try something new, not the Democratic party of persecution, but, say, a third party, the LaFollette, Socialist. Labor, Red group, anything to get away from the Republicans; who had done much for them, but not all they wanted or expected. But things have not panned out as the dopesters thought. Only one or two so-called big Negroes have jumped and they have gone, to the Democrats, in New York and Massachusetts. The Negroes who have joined the LaFollette organization are the kind that the average Negro voter is rather wary of anyhow. Whereas most of the voters are far from believing that the Republican Party is all that Fred Douglass said it was, they have subscribed to the national and strength. Illinois G. A. R., Seeks Repeal of Coinage Law For Stone Mt. Monument Evanston, Ill.—The passage by the 68th Congress of an Act (S 684) authorizing the coinage of 50-cent pieces in commemoration of the commencement of the Stone Mountain, Ga., confederate war memorial, has aroused the ire of Grand Army posts in all sections of the country. The Illinois Grand Army Department at its 58th annual encampment recently held passed strong resolutions denouncing the action. S F Stewart, A P I, George H Thomas Post, G A R, No 5, of Evanston, is energetic in an effort to bring about a repeal of the legislation. He is making a special appeal to members of Congress to this end The resolutions adopted by the Illinois encampment were presented by the U.S. Grant Post, No 28, of Illinois and declared that the profits from these coins are "to be used in carving out of said Stone Mountain a monument" to three traitors, Jeff Davis Lee and Jackson, who were leaders in the endeavor to destroy the government. The resolutions declared further that in 1865 he rebels were forgiven but not their leason nor their rebellion and that such traitors cannot be honored without dishonoring the men who fought to maintain the Union. It is expected that $2,000,000 will be raised from the coinage and sale of these 50-cent pieces, which are to be issued only upon request of the Stone Mountain Confederate Monumental Association, which is to bear all the expense of dies and other preparations for this coinage.

L.—Recognition of Dean George W. Cook's connection with Howard University covering a period of fifty years, dating from October 7, 1874, was taken by officers and students of the University at the noonday chapel exercises on Tuesday, October 7. President Durkee referred to the long connection of Dean Cook with the University as student, teacher, secretary, and dean of the School of Commerce and Finance, and to the spirit of service which has prevailed throughout all of the years of his connection with the University. Dean Cook made a very feeling reply to President Durkee's remarks and thanked the assembly for the ovation which greeted the President's remarks. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer, presented a basket of flowers. Dean Cook was also presented with a gold fountain pen by the Chamber of Commerce of Howard University. Russell Sage Foundation Surveys Employment and Labor Agencies In U. S. After a five-year study of employment methods, needs and agencies, the Russell Sage Foundation of 130 East 22nd street, New York City, has made public its findings, showing that several millions of men and women, representing 10 to 12 per cent of all the workers in the United States, are out of work all the time. The report charges that public employment bureaus, especially those dealing with unskilled and casual labor, are exploiting thousands of men and women. Widespread unemployment has far reaching-economic, social, psychological and moral bearings. The investigation extended into more than seventy cities in thirty-one states and Canada, and was conducted by a staff of trained investigators under direction of Shelby M Harrison director of surveys and exhibits. The complete report, embracing some 600 pages, to be lasted shortly, will give the results of detailed studies of farm labor, Negro workers and migratory labor, with findings drawn from these observations. Criticism is made of the fact that the unskilled worker is frequently subjected to such abuses as paying, a job to employment bureaues and failing to get a job; being sent to distant points where conditions are unsatisfactory and held there by the expense of returning; employed for a few days, then discharged as a result of collation between employer and agent, a new worker being then employed and another fee collected which is divided between the employer and agent. The report advocates the establishment of public bureaus to take place of these private agencies, the service to be free to the workers. Another suggestion is the building up of a strong competing organization, which will gradually improve the situation to the extent of eliminating the private agencies Laster Cottage.

The crown of the Emperor Theodore, which was captured by Lord Naper of Magdalad in the Abyssinian War of 1841, and is about to be presented by the king to the Empress Judith, as announced by his Majesty when receiving Prince Tafaria, the heir-apparent and Regent of Abyssinia, in farewell audience, still reposing in its glass case at the Victoria and Albert Museum, South Kensington, to which it was presented by the Secretary of State for India, in 1869 It is large and ponderous piece of craftsmanship, more ornate than beautiful, and many sizes too big for any ordinary head. It is of silver forgree work, the domed top raising of two separate and concentric coats that encircle its lower portion. A strange looking pipe projects several inches through the centre of the dome apparently for ventilation. The whole crown is lavishly decorated with little squares and diamonds of red and blue glass varied with diminutive pictures and portraits, and around the bottom of the crown is a massive gift border of a cup-shaped device. The official description attached to the case, which stands in Room 27, follows "The Crown of Abysmia" very gift with filigree work colored paste and small paintings under glass taken by the British Army at the capture of Magdala on April 13, 1869. Given by the Secretary of State for India, 1869." Next to the crown is an "Armlet of Honor," a military decoration for service in the field, which was given by King Theodore to Mr. Mormund Rasam, and presented to the museum by the Foreign Office in 1688.

Bulkman porter who lost his job, but essentially regained it because the officials of the company decided to overload his midempator on account of the quality of service, he had been accustomed to render while. In their employ, copulate a moral. For many years this porter, we shall call Blank, had been in the service of the Pullman company. Prior to the circumstances which led to his discharge, he was looked upon by the management as one of its most dependable, and exemplary porters. There was no phase of the. Pullman service involving this occupation with which Blank was not familiar. Parlor car, sleeping car, buffet car, or private car, he was equally proficient in the type of service, each demanded. This is quite an accomplishment, for strange as it may seem to the casual traveller, each one of these types of car demand different qualifications, and the Pullman company has made it a rule to assign, wherever compartment, porters of certain degrees of ability to cars giving service of a certain kind. This system ot appointment is conducive to the efficiency of the service which the Pullman Company maintains, but as a result it naturally happens that a porter may be extremely able in performing the duties for on a sleeping car, absolutely clumsy and out of place, on a parlor car, buffet car, or private car, and vice versa. As we have before said, in Blank's case this difficulty did not exist. He was equally at home on all types of cars. With all his serviceable attributes and other admirable qualities, however, he had one fault. He would lose his temper on the least provocation, and when he did something unpleasant generally The of Glisse BEAUTIFUL from Nature healthy by "warm helps to present and good health —that's the old Colgate's Rite modern dentifrice It contains no g The non-grit clinging food and cause decay gently washes the mouth clean healthy condition Colgate's is not should be a clear Dentist, not you healthy condition Use Colgate habit easily for Large tube—25 send the coupon A The Loveliness of Glistening Teeth BEAUTIFUL teeth are your priceless gift from Nature.

The last time he displayed this pudeshra trait, it is alleged that he vented his rage on the person of a prospective passenger, who naturally did not think very highly of so warm a reception. He complained to the management, and as a result Blank, was promptly discharged. Had he been an ordinary type of porter this would in all probability have been the end of him so far as the Pullman service was concerned, but as we have pointed out, he wasn't ordinary. His past record of service to the company, his proficiency, and the interest and loyalty which he had exhibited in all the activities that have to do with the porters' welfare caused the management to reconsider his dismissal. He was summoned to Chicago to see the Assistant General Manager, and this is what we are told that official sad to him "Blank, we are sorry that this has happened. You are a good porter. I know that from personal observation, for I have ridden with you several times, although you did not know who I was. Go back to New York and see the suspintendent there^b I think it can be arranged for you to go back to work again." He concluded the interview by saving. "We have to loot, after our good porters for we find that we need them and they need us". In closing we would like to say that though this executive is called upon to make many statements during the course of the year, we doubt very much if he has ever made a truer one than the last quoted. Now the lesson that we wish to draw from this porter's dismissal and subsequent restatement is one which might be profitfully shared not only by Pullman porters, but by others engaged in different pursuits. It is this—give the best you have in you when rendering service, whether it is of the creative, instructive, or submissive variety for you never can tell what may happen to cause you to fall back upon your previous record. STATION H-E-A-L-T-H By Dr. B. S. HERBEN Of the New York Tuberculosis Association The Treatment of Colds The first thing to do for a child who is coming down with a cold is to give him a cathartic, and the best one for this use is castor oil. A tablespoonful of this should be given. If there is a cough, the chest should be rubbed with camphorated oil, not so much for the benefit of the oil but because there seems to be a favorable effect derived from the brisk rubbing which brings the skin to the surface and makes it warm. Just why this acts favorably, I cannot tell you in this article. For a cough which is increasing and associated with some symptoms of laryngitis, one of the best remedies is the "group kettle" or, the homemade "group kettle" substitute Take an ordinary pitcher and put into it a pit of hot water to which has been added a teaspoonful, of compound texture of benzoin, which can be procured at the drug store. Around the neck of the pitcher, wrap a towel in such a way as to provide a "roff" the other end of which is wrapped around the child's face so that he can breathe the medicated steam. The child should be wrapped in a blanket so that he will not get chilled while doing this and he should be put to bed afterward and the windows should be kept closed for about an hour after the steam inhalation For a nose which is "stopped" by the secretions, a little vaseline or sweet oil put into the nostril will sometimes be a relief.

WITH OUR GIRLS pigs, that boy or girl must raise pigs also. If they have a father who is an other line of profession the children from generation to generation must engage in that same occupation or profession The world used to be that way—education for some—but now the world has gone on through many terrible experiences until at the present time we believe that all the good things are the inheritance of all men, all have the right to share all the good things that God has put in this world for his children. Education has no limits. Inhuman money is spent for the education of mothers and fathers; enormous money is spent for the blind and the feeble minded, for the education of the foreigners to teach these new comers and give them understanding what the nation stands for, and what is expected of them. No one is exempted, all are supposed to have the fundamental idea. We do well to come together for the common cause. Let me take this Book, the Bible, for an example. We remember how Abraham was called from the heathen land by God, how he settled in Egypt and became the father of those great Hebrew people, and how they were slaves in Egypt, and their wanderings in the wilderness under Moses, and the Holy Land being established. Just at the time the Hebrew people thought they had reached the highest plan of development, they were led into captivity. After awhile the older people began to doubt if they would ever see the Old Land. Babylon was more wonderful than New York or Paris. It had great Gonging gardens streets standing in mid air, streets on top of each other. There was every conceivable thing imaginable. It was a great industrial center. People continually thronged the streets. You may think that our modern cabaret is new, but it is not, it existed in Babylon. Every once in a while we hear of a new dance, but it isn't really new, it existed in Babylon. Think of anything you will and you can parallel it with the Babylon man in 4,000 years ago. 5. women aid. There is nothing new under the heavens. These Hebrews had been taught 1. Reverence, 2. binding duty, 3. Hebrew law, 4. belief in one God, 5. respect for the government to manual labor work by accounting some kind of skill with their hands, 7. all crafts, and they were to master them, 8. they had the belief that they were the chosen people, and out of them would come One to redeem all mankind If you hear of the experiences of the Hebrews, it is the same experience which happen today. The Hebrew people were swept off their feet to the glare of Babylon. The first thing that struck their attention was the dance halls and the theaters the respect to parents and elderly people. The Babylonians had a powerful influence over them. Intellectual power was drawn out of these Hebrew people by the dissatisfaction of this city. It was very hard after applying to tell the difference between these two classes of people. While the young people were running wild, there were a few grees headed people who kept saying to them. But you have forgotten the teachings of your father. Girl, this is not the way there must be kept a remnant even in Babylon. You might think that the evening school is new but it isn't back in Babylon. The old Hebrew people had evening classes in which a few young attendee. It was instilled in them the Hebrew customs until after while the young people began to take things a these and some had the idea of going back to their land (they were thought back by the majority). But you remember that under Nehemiah they did go back and rebuild the walls on the Old Land.

His lecture was as follows EDUCATION I have been asked to say something about education. We have passed through the stage in which we believed that education is a peculiarity. In some countries it is still a peculiarity. Take for instance, India They have here the "Caste System." A boy or girl who has a father that raises scried it himself. It is especially true about infants under a year that the doctor's advice should be sought as soon as illness is noted. Many serious illnesses can be prevented if early trouble is cared for properly. If the temperature goes to a hundred, most certainly a physician should be sent for and at once. Give the sick child simple but ample food Don't "starve a cold" Stuttering Children who stutter should have great care in order that the habit may not become permanent. In young children, the inability to pronounce words without several attempts may be due to very simple troubles. It may be that the child has a natural difficulty in mastering speech and strangely enough a condition of slight malnutrition will aggravate the trouble. Dr. Holt speaks of a case which he had in which when the child was taken to the country and a general improvement has occurred to together with a gain in weight abatent five pounds, the stuttering disappeared entirely. In some children an attack of one of the acute infectious diseases will leave this difficult with speech behind but these cases are apt to correct themselves when the child has recovered from the effects of the recent illness. The inheritance of the child has much to do with the development of stummering but occasionally you see a child who is particularly imitative who will develop the habit after hearing some other child do it. Those children who have become habitual stummeres are apt to develop the defect after the sixth or seventh year. If there is present any defect in the mouth that is the formation of the teeth lips or palate or if there should be a condition known as tongue tread there may be an opportunity to correct the defect and so do away with the symptom of stummering. All of these children who show signs of difficulty with the speech should have the attention of some person who is trained in the care of such cases. Breathing exercises, vocal training and systematic teaching of the child are necessary. The child should be guided gently on the matter of speaking slowly and distinctly. He should never be laughed at and should not be punished for the mistakes he makes. The treatment of such a child requires skill and patience. Brooks-Sutton Marriage.

A great thong of people have gone from the south, and have settled in Orange, eminacelapia, and to all parts of these United States. What happens? Within ten miles of here there is every convenient opportunity for any kind of development. For instance the libraries, the schools, the air is filled with information (if we put our ears to the listening part of the radio). It is possible to be in the midst of these opportunities, and have ourselves weaker, and weaker. I am very much concerned as to whether father and mother have their eyes open to these opportunities. We as citizens should be concerned for a citizen is one who makes himself felt in the community in which he lives. What is in the average colored youth's mind? Going to work, making—a little money, taking a girl, and having a good time. In Chester, Pa., the condition of the city is very serious, there is no W.C. and no club room, and in every youth that stored up energy must be used. So consequently we hold them in the pool room and hanging on the corners. And then another thing, there is a law stating that when a child reaches the age of fourteen if he is in the seventh grade he may (with proper permission) be excused from attending school any longer, and if a child reaches the age of sixteen, regardless of what grade he may be in, he can leave school. This should not be A child should not be taken from school until he is least completes the high school, only on condition to help support a large family, and then he should have some manual labor in mind. With the increase of population from the southland, there has been no increase in schools Fathers and mothers do not have any contact between child and teacher, there is but very little cooperation. Many of the children go to school, urtids, just for the lack of soap and water. No one is concerned about the tidiness and cleanliness of our children but us. The conditions are the same in Philadelphia. Go to the library, very few of our young people you can find there, go to the evening school, it is the same. But I will tell you one thing: you can hardly find a seat because of the foreigners. This is the problem that you and I have to confront about education and their worthwhileness. If I less we face that problem and face it right, there is no hope for the race. Not very long ago I was asked to speak to the high school graduating class in a town in Pennsylvania. The people of this community were wide awake they had formed themselves into an organization called the "Main Line League." They had purchased homes for their people. They had a building loan of their own. They had purchased their own hall, and in this hall I was invited to speak to the high school graduates Out of the population of 20,000 colored people there were nine graduates I felt that they were very distinguished but there ought to have been at least 200. The older people should see that their children stay in school. Here is a startling thing. We are free so tree we are classes, intoxicated with freedom. If you don't hold your children in the schools you have nothing as a race to depend on. You are living for the future of your children; your church depends on everything depends upon the coming generation, who is going to make the race a little better.

The cam: paign of Charles H. Roberts for Congress in the twenty-first district for instance in- volves the principle of direct representation for the Negro voters. not only of that district, butin every district in the country. Unless these. voters swing their united support to the candidate named at their request, their | plea for representation in future campaigns is liable to be unheeded. The same principle apples in equal measure fo th ecampargn for Assemblyman, in which Fope Billups has been nominated by the Re- publicans. In all these districts where the Negro voters have been accorded representa- tion on the ballot and in the nominating primaries they are obligated to give their anost earnest support to the ticket. Not only should cach qualified voter cast his own ballot, hut these whe can should give their, time and assistance towards bringing out the yotes of thetr newhburs It tsa brave man who undertakes a cam- ,Pargn for a county office Ya thts county on the Republican tcket We therefore take pleasure im bespeaking géneral support for| ‘Thomas lefferson Ryan, who 1s running for the office of Sheriff of New York County. Mr Ryan is a wholesduled individual of un- assuming but genial bearing. with shoulders broad enough and temperament equable enbugh to carry all the burdens ‘of the-office. Indreations are that this may be-one of the years when the Republican tidal wave in New York may sweep below the Harlem ‘and thus put ia county adnmnustration. Jf so Mr Ryan well deserves a place among the local candidates worthy to hold uffice In the meantime every voter who has registered should resolve that nothing shall interferé to prevent his casting a vote for the ticket oi his choice If thay choice 13 not yet made there is vet time to make st.

Th tecord and character of each of the Pragi. dential candidates, so far as shown through their official careers, leaves but little oppor: tunity for choice, “President Coolidge, Sen: ator LaFollétte and Mr. Davis are personally men of high character and the rights of al classes of citizens, irrespective of racé, color or reéligion, would be safe with any one of them. It therefore becomes necessary to seek further light before making a choice. While Mr. Davis has declared himself personally opposed to the Ku Klux Klan, and in favor of accorditg equal rights to all citizens, it ‘is inevitable that he would fail to secure the cooperation of the South in any program embodying these principles: And any Dem- ocratic President must owe his election to the Solid South and, willingly or unwilling. ly, his admimbtration will be dominated by that séction This forbids any hope for the improvement of the political status of the race in national affairs through the election of Mr. Davis. Senator LaFolletté has also denounced tke klan, but his election is so highly im- probable. despite the fact that he may carry certain Western States, that to vote for him would be in the nature of voting in the air. As a gesture of dissatisfaction with certain conditions that now afflict the Republican party, such a vote might. afford a degree of moral satisfaction to the voter, but it would not help better the conditions of which we complain. The only other recourse for the voters of the race is to again vote the Republican ticket, with the determination to continue’ the struggle within party lines to regain those rights wrested from us during eight years of Democratic misrule. While Presi dent Coohdge has failed to record his oppost- tion to klan rule as a menace to organized government. his general policy am the ad- voca¢y of full rights of citizenship for the face and the personal protection of <all cit- ivens warrant the belief that in no event sould he afford to knuckle to the klan. The practical demonstration of the Presi- dent's courage and character furnished in is standing hehind the policy of giving a solored personnel to the Veterans’ Hospital it Tuskegee, in insisting upon the apport- ment of Walter L. Cohen to a Federal office at New Orléans and asserting the principle avolved im the nomination of Dr Charles H. Robert» to Congress in New York, are evidence that he is not indifferent to the ecagmition and advancement of the race tt ives ground for the beltef that with the greater power and prestige that an election through the votes of the people would give him, he would rise to the occasion and sweep from the Nation's capital all those petty remnants of segregation and diserimination nherited from his Democratic predecessor, Wath a fall reahzation of the sins of ems. no and commission onghttulls charged gainst the present leaders of the Repub- rear party we feel tour duty te advise Wir people te tate the Repubhean tu ket A FISHY PROPOARITION | Cansderable puberty was given te th storting ot a suit at New Orleans last wee! for the avowed purpose of declarmg th ourteenth amendment to the Consttutier null and vord The immediate object oi the suit is ta remave from office Walter [ Cohen whe was appointed as comptralle- of custems at New Orleans and who 1 ners filling that posiven The nomination of Mr Cohen was otigmally made by President Harding and renewed by President Coolidge "t wa. at first rejected by the Senate, but later contirmed at the insistence of the President Che rapers filed in the suit charged that Mr Cshen ‘fraudulently obtained appoint. ment by subseribing tO an oath that he was a cruven ot the United States. when as a matter of fact the said Cohen is of African descent vel therefore incapable of becoming acitven tthe United States.” Tt was furth. trchamed that the Fourteenth amendment teeta part of the Conatitntion 1 invalid, vet aa cron effort for that reason ‘The sad Article 14 was never legally propaced by two-thirds uf both houses ot Congress THRE NeW YORK acy it never was legally or constitutionally tadfied by three-fourths of the states of the ‘United States.” ‘Aa the yalidity of the War amendments has been repeatedly upheld by the Supreme Court of the United States and Have with- stood the attacks of nearly half a century, the futility of this suit from a legal ‘poittt 4f vigw is readily apparent.

Thc spirit of true democracy is growing with the resulting movement in che interest of self-help and self-diréction.

A. "Christian's Service" was the theme of Elder Strachan on Sabbath morning at the Harlem Second Seventh Day Adventist Church. 106-108 West 127th street. The day marked the close of the third quarter, and the entrance upon the fourth quarter's program of church missionary work. In his sermon the elder said in part: Christ's followers have been redeemed for service. The true object of life as ministry. Christ Himself was a workker. Not more surely is a place prepared for us in the heavenly mansura, than is the special, place designated on earth where we are to work for God: God expects every church member to do his duty before he leaves this world. At the Sunday afternoon open air service on Lenox avenue, rother Sebastian Lewis and Sister R. L. Keith spoke in a very earnest and helpful way to the passing throng. Sunday night climaxed the shout in the camp, over the accomplishments of the entire church the past quarter in missionary work. One of the associate secretaries of the church missionary society Sister Clara Moss, read her quarterly report. In this report, she gave the sum total of money, tood and clothing given to the distressed the missionary visits made to the home of the city, the prayers and Bible readings held, there, the religious literature left with the interested; and the number of souls brought to Christ. An impressive missionary play was staged by sixteen young persons, entitled, The Cross and Crown." Sisters-Clarice Gittens and C Carroll recited a beautiful missionary poem, Sister Florentina Massiah sang a solid Sister Wilmith Gore held the audience spellbound with her pantomime of the hymn, "Lead, Kindly Light." The pastor gave a short address. The house was literally pack- Rush Memorial Church The parable of the sower was intelligently portrayed in a sermon preached by Dr. Oliver, the pastor, at the eleventh clock services last Sunday. The text is found in Proverbs 4.23 The heart in this verse represents the soil and are the sower. It is up to us to keep our hearts in a condition to receive the good things of life. The farmer in the parable scattered seed over willow in the stony thorne, and along the shade, the sowed root took root those thrown in the fertile soil. Our hearts must be clean in order for our lives to stand out and mean something. All in all, this sermon was a very practical one. The Sunday School Rally closed in the afternoon, and was quite a success. Mr Holam superintendent and his co-workers deserve a great deal of credit for the work they have done in building up this Department of the church. At 8 o'clock, the pastor preached another beautiful sermon.

Church A most unusual congregation heard Dr Brown Sunday morning on a most unusual theme "Subtitutes." His portrait of the true and the untrue in Christianity and the worship was a poetic piece that included every place of life. The minister declared the course of his sermon that no institution in the world could take the place of the church no matter how nearly they carried out the aim and purpose of the church. Like all men on the cloth Dr Brown believes that relies on the government strangle among the nations of the earth can find balm only through the instrumentality of the church. Bishop Lee was present and spoke at the conclusion of the sermon. A large number united with the church membership. At 3 o'clock p.m. the G. L. O. F. of Brooklyn held their memorial services at the church. Dr Brown was the speaker. The Sunday school campaign for members is telling in the weekly enrollment.

Brooklyn Silhou Children, Brooklyn Sunday was observed as Columbus Day at Siloam Presbyterian Church. At the morning service, Rays, George Shark, pastor, spoke on the topic taken from the following "By Paul Faith Abraham when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inference, obeyed, and he went out, not knowing whether he went." The pastor pointed out that Columbus was a hero of faith and that because of his adventure of faith he discovered America. Faith is the foundation of life, the fabric of all the experiences of mankind. Faith gives knowledge and the cower to endure and has its commination in hope. By faith we believe that God is, that His Son died to save us from sin, that the Holy Spirit is our daily guide. Rev Stark preached again at the evening services. Bible School met at 1:15 p.m. Wednesday evening, mid-week service for divine worship. Topic: 'Test of Discipleship'. Luke 9:57-62 Open discussion of topic. Newman Mem. Church. Newman put in a full day last Sunday and each service was well attended the pastor. Rev W. Cooper, though indispensable, was present as services accept the early morning prayer service. In the morning he spoke from St. Mark, 4th chapter, on "The kind of soil we are offering the good seed of the Word." Is it the hard unpenetrable wayside that has been trampled by the passions of man or the rocks venerated by the supernatural pretenses of faith? Is it the hard unpenetrable wayside filled with an over abundance of so called pleasures? The afternoon service was unique, in that it was a memorial held for the lowly ones of the church who had fought and won. The life of Gatherne Scott was spoken of by Rev E. W. Payne, that of Ruth Lane by Mary Rebecca Williams, who ended her remarks by reciting Tennyson's "Crossing the Bar," the life of Sarah Chisholm was recited by Rev J. H. Williams, who also acted as master of ceremonies. The pastor closed with a general cullor, but spoke particularly upon the life of the Church Modesie, a former trustee of the church whose children, greatly represented his children, grand children and nephew. It was a grand and solemn occasion. The organist, the Misses Robinson of St. Augustine, Mrs. J. H. Williams of St Johns A M E Church and the following ministers assisted in the program Revs Cummings, A. E. Simmons, and Edwards. Dr Simmons preached a powerful sermon at night. St. Philip's Church, B'klyn. At 11 a. m. Rector Bowl preached the second sermon in a series on "The Church." His subject was "The Beauty of the Church." from Isaiah 52. part of lst verse He forcefully brought home to a large congregation that the beauty of the church is shown in the life of its members, who can spot it if they will George Findlay took the reins of St Philips Church school with that kind of tact which indicates success and St Philips is to be congratulated on securing him At 8 p.m. the rector gave a pre-conference address in which he impressed his people with their sense of responsibility to make the conference inspiration for the work of all the churches in the lst and 2nd Provinces A large delegation assembled on Wednesday for the Conference.

Dr. Henry Tangi Foster indexed a pulpit at both services Sunday, speaking at the morning hour on the scope, power and significance of our influence. At the evening time he gave the first lecture on the topic, Man's Seven Problems' speaking on Temptation. The topic for the coming Sunday evening is Money. At the young people's meeting Philip Randolph gave an address. He was preceded by Thomas Williams, candidate for the General Assembly. Rev. Calvin Lane pointed out the dangers in the present situation of tampering with the Constitution. Among the mission of the day were R. T. C. M. Harkart, Dallas, Tex.; Mrs. N. C. Butler, Detroit, Mich.; Miss N. C. Brooklyn. Mrs. ChaFlieTe Fowkies, 1668 Atlantic avenue, received tidings of the deaths of her brother in Washington, D.C.

Dr. Proctor will preach Sunday morning on "The Deadliest Sin," and at the evening "The Problem of Money and Lobby of 137th St. "Y" Serves As A Community Center For Harlemites It is interesting to note how careful phases of service develop here in the Branch according to the need that is shown for them. Harlem has always needed a community center. If one is in the neighborhood of 42nd and Pifflin avenue, there is the Public Library with rest rooms and reading rooms, with quiet little corners where a seat may be found and where one may meet one friends. Down farther there is the Pennsylvania Station, and farther down still, the Hudson Terminal, where one may fill almost every conceivable need; may rest an hour, or meet a friend. In fact we never realize until we leave New York how much public services we get here and how ominently convenient this city is. This convenience which other sections of the city offer has not, however, been extended to Harlem. We have too few such places, and it is, therefore, gratifying to know that the "Lobby" of this building is used more and more as sort of club for men and women. It is a cheerful place; there are comfortable chairs, good lights for reading, desks for writing and, in winter, it is always warm. In addition to these advantages a secretary is always on duty at the desk to give out information. She also frequently takes messages for people in the lobby or cafeateria, takes care of packages or of luggage, receives mail for numbers of people who are staying in the city only transiently, and endeavors to do every thing she is asked to do. And the variety of requests is great! We are grateful to Mrs. Alfred Smith of Manhasset, N. Y., and Mrs. Julie Woodward for magazines.

Mr Haves offered three groups. The first song in German and English, contained Handel's 'Care Selve' from "Atalanta" and "Would You Gain the Tender Creature", Schubert's 'An the Leyer' (To the Lyre) and 'Die Forelle' (The Trout), and Brahms' 'Malachi' (May Night). The second group sung in English included Griffes' 'In Myrtle Shade' 'Shephlew' 'I Know in Hell' and Pachmannoffnoff 'In the Science of Night' 'Lunettes to the group were Se Receiver' and 'Do the Waters, or Bishop'. The third group included Negro Solitarians. This grouply by far the Baseball will make its final show for the season at-the Catholic Perfectory Oval on Sunday, October 19 when the Lincoln Giants play the Bronx Giants a double header for the semi-professional championship of the Bronx. The Bronx Giants is the strongest white team in that borough and there has always been a keen rivalry between that nine and the Lincoln. In its efforts to beat the colored team the Bronx Giants signed several big league players for this game. The Lincoln, on the other hand, will be without the services of Captain Marcell, who has already joined the winter league in Cuba; "Highpockett" Hudspeth, star first baseman; and John Taylor, pitcher. Hudspeth and Taylor are leaving Saturday to join Marcell, "Pop" Lloyd, Dick Lundy, and other colored players in Cuba. But despite the handicap of losing these valuable players, the Lincoln are confident of taking the series. On Sunday, October 12, they came from behind and won 'a 7-6 victory from the Philadelphia Professionals. Seibold, former pitcher of the Philadelphia Athletics held the home team to four scattered hits and two runs until the ninth inning. But in the last inning, Burnett, Wilson, Singer and Williams hit safe, making one run and filing the bases. With two men out and the bases filled, George Scales came along and hit a home run, which gave his team five runs in that inning and the game Judy Gans pitched the last six innings for the colored team and showed some of his old time form. In the other contest, however, the Lincoln's were beaten. 4-2, by the Camden, N. J., team, which was made up of stars from the International and other professional leagues HAMPTON DEFEATS VA. SEMINARY IN LAST MINUTE PLAY Hampton, Va.—The Virginia Seminary eleven of Lynchburg almost upset the football ambitions of the Hampton Institute team when they held the local team scoreless until the last minute of play at Armstrong Field Saturday, October 11. With the hope of its supporters at the lowest ebb, the Blue and White eleven began a battering of the Seminary line in the last quarter which resulted in the jone touchdown of the game. Elmer Baker kicked the goal. Hampton team refused to accept defeat and showed its oldtime fighting spirit during the last minutes of the game. Although its showing was not what the coaches had expected, they are confident that there will be a marked improvement on Saturday, when they meet St Paul at orfolk in their first big game TUSKEGEE WINS 47-0 VICTORY FROM THE FORT VALLEY ELEVEN TUSKEGEE WINS 47-0 VICTORY FROM THE FORT VALLEY ELEVEN Tuskegee, Ala. -The Tuskegee Tigers completely outclassed the Fort Valley eleven here on October 11 and won a 47-0 Victory.

AT THE LINCOLN THEATRE BETTY COMPSON is supported by a unique cast in 'The Female,' her new Paramount starring picture directed by Sam Wood. The story is an adaptation of Cynthia Stockley's 'Dalla, the Lion Cub.' All of the scenes are laid in South Africa. Heading the strong supporting cast are Warner Baxter and Noah Beers, Dorothy Cumming, Helen Butter, Pauline French, Edgar Norton and Florence Wix also have important parts. There are other featured players who get no credit in the advertising, but they don't care. They are an assortment of lions fourteen in number ranging in size from tiny cubs to grown-ups. All the zoos in Southern California were scoured by Director Wood and his assistants to find African lions of just the right size and temperament The Female which will be shown at the Lincoln Theatre is a story of a beautiful Boer girl who knows no life outside the African velvet She meets and falls in love with a handsome young Englishman far above her station in life. Men before always flocked to her, but this one is different He is strangely cold and ignores her, and his people the 'Englishers' result Dalla (Miss Compan) The rest of the picture is a gripping and unusually entertaining story of the carriage out of this girl's plans for revenge—against all the ultra-smart of the English colony in general The picture closes with her completely winning over the young Englishman most popular of the entire program, included "I've Got a Home in That Rock" "an arrangement by Roland Hayes 'Hail the Crown', an arrangement by Avery Robinson 'Love Time I Feel de Spirit', as arranged by Lawrence Brown, and 'You Bear de Lambs a Crown' In order for this group were Peter Go Ring the Heels' and 'Gone Home' Mr. H. 04 is invited at the piano by William Lawrence accompany pianist THE NEW YORK AGE In contrasting the modern cabaret with those of other days one is inclined to marvel at the sweeping changes that have been made within the last two years, chiefly with regards to the methods of conducting such places and the calibre of the average patron. There was a time when respectable people hesitated to enter a cabaret, and on certain occasions slumming parties were made up to make a tour of the places and enjoy an evening of unusual pleasure, excusing whatever they saw or heard that did not meet either their approval. But those days are gone for ever since the cabaret of today has become an Institution of Nightly Pleasure. These were the words of Mr. Wheeler, a popular young Harlem man who supervises social functions for the younger set upown. A few days ago Edwin Small celebrated Anniversary Week with a packed house every night. Well known men attended and quite a number of high professional people, some with international reputation, visited Small's Calleteria with all the dignity at their command. The Lincoln-Girl's Social Club, Billy Hall, Jerry Preston, Jing Charleston, Russell West, Toney Hicks, Bennie Butler, members from The Chocolate Daniels Company, the Club Alabam, ladies known as the Misses Billy Kelly, Alice Holland. Blanch Morton, Anna Cummings, Eva Brawley, Ella Dias, Beste Smith and a number of others Those people could not afford to frequent a slum resort, and the patrons who are not professional people are respectable and intelligent. They visit Small's Cafeteria because they enjoy clean wholesome entertainment and have refreshments that are within the keeping of good morals. W. H. Hooks' buffet lunch could appease the appetite of a king while an interesting program is furnished by Sir Harris, the human dancing doll Maude Woodson, the sweet voiced singer, and Johnny Davis, the young man that wins every guest as a regular patron. The young couples and elderly people who enjoy dining and dancing, delight to mingle in the crowd that dances to the melodious strains of Charles Smith's Band. The fact that Small's Cafeteria is one of the most popular places of pleasure in Harlem is proof enough that a cabaret today is not the place it has been pictured, and this is one so nicely decorated and so cozy, orderly and nice that once settled at a table one easily makes himself at home CHARLES WEST NOW ASSISTANT COACH OF HOWARD ELEVEN Washington, D C—Charlie West, famous all round athlete and last year's captain of the Washington and Jefferson football team, has entered the Medical School at I. W.ard University. He has also been appointed assistant physical director by the University authorities, and has already begun work assisting Coach Morrison with the football team.

Because of the perfectly wonderful results I obtained from Exelento Quinine Pomade, I purchased a jar of Exelento Skin Beautifier. It changed my sallow complexion to a clear, lovely skin, glowing with health. For pimples and other skin blennies, it has no equal.

Wilson, 78, a colored valedictor of the Civil War, will soon receive a reward in the form of a pension, for high service to his country. The aged man fought for the Union under an assumed name, and through all the years that have ensued has been deprived of recognition of his record, because he was poor, and separated far from his old comrades. Wilson lives at 175 Smith street, Brooklyn. Harold L. Turk, Republican leader, and Frank Jordan, Republican candidate for Assembly in the Eighth Assembly District, financed iWilson so that he could journey into the South and find comrades who proved his identity. The records have now been approved by the Pension Bureau. He was born a slave in Evergreen, Ala., November 24, 1846. During the war Wilson was put to work on the Mobile Bay fortifications, but with about twenty-five others, he escaped in a fishing sloop and sailed along the coast until they reached Ship Island where they were picked up by a Union transport. This was November, 1862. Wilson obtained the Wilson enlisted under the name of Dr. L. W. C. captured larger, would not be identified as he would not be identified as a slave. Last year Wilson filed an application for his Civil War pension, but in view of the fact that he enlisted under the name of Dennie Smallwood, an assumed name, he experienced considerable difficulty. The United States Pension Bureau at Washington notified him it would be necessary for him to obtain affidavits from men who served with him during the Civil War. Applicants at Washington contained the names of only three men of that regiment who were still alive, one of whom was a former colored soldier, Nelson Lane. These three soldiers were residing in Alabama, one at Montgomery, one at Portland and the other at Greenville. Through the aid of Mr Jordan and Mr Turk. Wilson went to Montgomery, Ala., and found his former comrades. Wilson has been married fifty-two years, and only recently celebrated the golden anniversary of his wedding. He is a member of William Lloyd Garrison Post: No. 207, G. A. R., and for two consecutive years has been a member of the marshal's staff, leading the G. A. R parade on horseback. He is a member of the Concord Baptist Church and is one of the oldest residents of the Gowanus section. Englewood, N. J. Englewood, N. J.—Rev. D. L.

Without any ap- patient reason or cause, Laurence Megular, a 19-year-old white high school stu- student, brutally murdered, William D. Savage, a Negro farm laborer, while the latter was asleep in bed in a room in the barn. Megular, committed the crime between the hours of 11 p. m. and 4 a.m. leaving after the latter hour and not being seen any more until 6 o'clock the same evening, when he returned to his uncle's home near where the boy's family lived, and surrendered to the sheriff. There is absolutely no clue to Megular's reason for killing Savage. The colored man bore the reputation of being one of the best men in the settle- men, without regard to color. He came to Simpson Co. several years ago from Robertson Co. and had been working as a day laborer, being industrious, law-abiding and peaceful. Mrs. Megular, mother of the murderer, declares that Savage was one of the best men she ever knew. The slain man had been struck in the head by a hammer, at least five blows being given, and then, to make sure, the white boy had used a razor, cutting the colored man's throat from ear to ear. Savage was about 32 years old, and he is survived by four sisters and a brother: Mrs. Millie Lee Babb and Mrs. Harriett Harris, Franklin; Mrs. Rertie Jones, Honey Grove, Tex.; Mrs. Louisa Savage and Ed Savage, Tennessee.
