Dangerous Menace To Welfare of People and Community Is Not Denounced Specifically By Religious Leaders, Whose Attitude of Toleration of Bootlegging Element Leads to Specialization As To Cause.
DESIRABLE RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS ARE NOW BEING INVADED BY BOOTLEGGING HORDES BRINGING WOMEN AND CHILDREN INTO DANGER
Speakeasies of Vilent Type Being Opened In Apartment Buildings and Private Houses, and Home Stills Are Operated So Generally As To Constitute a Serious Menace to Life and Property.
A peculiar phase of the hooch situation in Harlem is the apparent unwillingness of ministers of the community to take any decided stand in the way of denouncing the illegal traffic in alcoholic concoctions, or to make any effort toward driving from the community the horde of bootleggers who infest the neighborhood.
It is alleged that the pastors have not, as a rule, demonstrated any special interest in ridding Harlem of the presence of this body of law violators, whose activities have an injurious effect upon the entire people, in that all of them are forced, in some way or other, to suffer from unavoidable contact with both those who sell bootch and those who drink it.

What looks to be the biggest society scandal of the year broke in Harlem on Wednesday, November 19, when Mrs. Alice G. Reed of 2313 Seventh avenue, served papers on her husband, Walter P. Reed of 68 Liberty street, Newark, for absolute divorce. The legal action followed a raid on a private house at 61 West 124th street where Mr. Reed was found with a white woman by Mrs. Reed and Detectives from the Boulin Detective Agency, who had been trailing him.
Mr. Reed, who had, been separated from his wife for several months, had brought an action on September 15, through his attorneys' Rosenberg and Rosenberg, for possession of the house at 2295 Seventh avenue, which Mr. Reed alleges his wife conveyed to him more than three years ago.

Mrs Reed is one of the wealthiest woman in Harlem and was married to her present husband in Detroit on January 4, 1921. Before her marriage to Mr. Reed she had married Dewey Banks, but had secured a divorce when Banks was given a prison sentence in connection with a shooting affray in that city. She is a native of Zanesville. O An Age reporter interviewed Mr. Reed on Wednesday morning and he alleges that the whole divorce action is a frame connected by his wife and the Boulin Detective Agency. His story is that Harry E.

When the fire was finally gotten under control the laundry and the entrance to the apartments on the floor above was completely ruined, as well as the apartment of Herbert Tyler on the floor above. Mrs Jesse Brown and Mrs. Crusse, who occupy apartments in the adjoining house, were driven into the street and their homes badly damaged by water. Mrs. Randolph's beauty salon was also badly damaged.
Several rumors are going around as to the origin of the fire. Godbold is alleged to be a numbers banker, and one rumor alleges that he set fire to the store so that he would not have to pay off.

City Board Of Y.W.C.A. Settles Race Discrimination Question In Statement
As The Age is going to press, the information comes from an absolutely reliable source that the formal statement given below, credited to the City Board, was really issued by the Executive Committee prior to the board meeting on Monday afternoon. At the meeting, according to the report given this paper, the committee state was adopted and ordered furnish the Associated Press and metropolitan dailies, in which the question brought up by the barring of Miss Lydia Gardine from the School of Hygiene and Physical Education of the Central Branch Y. W. C. A. was specifically answered.
The City Board is reputed to have said in this latter statement that wherever an yof the Branch Y. W. C. A.'s are not offering any special activity, the members of that Branch must have the privilege o f taking, that course in any Branch offering, the activity in question.
New York City Board Of The Y.W.C.A. Takes Up Barring Of Negro Girl But Straddles
Issues Statement Which Tells of "Y" Policy of "Equal Opportunity For All, "But Is Absolutely Silent On Refusal of School of Hygiene Director to Admit Miss Gardine, Colored Girl As Pupil.
The barring of Miss Lydia Gardine, a colored girl, from the Y. W. C. A. Central School of Hygiene and Physical Education, was taken up by the New York City Board of Directors of the Y. W. C. A., at its meeting on Monday, and although the board has issued a long statement, the question of race discrimination as revealed in this particular case, remains unsettled.
The statement cites that the colored woman's branch Y W. C. A. in West 137th street, houses and maintains certain activities for benefit of the colored girls, and that business classes and cafeterias in other branches are open to colored girls, but ignores absolutely and entirely the matter of the rejection of Miss Gardine's application after it had been accepted, when the director of the school, Miss Helen McKinstry, wrote the girl that because of her color she could not enter as a student.
Thought that definite action would be taken even though the action of the school director might be enforced, since members of the Board have been quoted as saying that the official attitude of the Y W. C. A., in the matter of racial discrimination, is that certain facilities are provided specially for the Negro girl and she is expected to avail herself of those opportunities.

This course is contrary to the catholic
Accepted Then Barred
Miss Gardine, 20 years old, graduated from the East Orange High School the past June and applied to the Y. W. C. A school for training to become a physical culture teacher. Her application admission fee had been accepted when it was found, in her replies to a questionnaire, that she is a colored girl. It was then that Miss McKinsey returned the girls' mores and wrote her that by reason of her color, she could not be received in the school.
The matter was appealed to the City Board and the conference on Monday was supposed to bring some kind of a definite settlement of the case. Mrs Howard Gillippe Myers, president of the Board, presided. The dodging of the question is surprising, say those who have been following developments in the case. It was

Age Investigator Has His Head Bumps Felt By Gypsy Phrenologists In Harlem
Current Price Is 50 Cents a Feel." But Frazier Pleaded Poverty and Was Given A Bargain Rate of 25 Cents —The Romany Maids Tried To Inveigle Him Into Buying Some "Luck" At $50 a Buy, Just The Same.
ONE OF THE MAIDS VARIED THE ACT BY DEMANDING A "FRESH EGG" BEFORE SHE COULD WOO HIS LUCK—SHE DIDN'T GET IT
The Phrenology Practiced Is Evidently Obtained From Study of the Dime Books On The Subject Sold on News Stands, Coupled With a Shrewd Knowledge of Human Nature Gained in Wide Travel and Contact.
(By JOHN.E. FRAZIER.)
I had the "Gypsy Blues" Saturday so I looked up a gypsy maiden and found one at 455 Lenox avenue. She was a phrenologist, young and fairly good looking. Her fee was half a dollar, but I had only a quarter and she accepted it. Leading me to a seat on a bench she sat on my right. Then the fun began.

ANOTHER BIG AUTO
RACE TO BE WELD
THANKSGIVING DAY
White and Colored Drivers To Comete at He Ho Kuh N. N.
New agents will have opportunity to win better tickets by auto race on Thanksgiving Day. This race will include both white and colored drivers and will be under the auspices of the Mid-Weiterlin Automobile Association. It will also have the co-operation of local automobilig associations which have guaranteed to sell 1500 tickets.
Efforts were made to secure some other track than that at Ho-Ho-Kus, N. J., but when these proved unsuccessful the management of the affair set about to have this track oiled and expired so that it will be much better condition for the Thanksgiving Day race than it was on Election Day. The price of admission has been reduced from $220 to $110 so as to insure a large crowd.
The events are a 20 mile race for colored drivers; a closed 10 mile race for white drivers; a junk race; and a 10 mile match race between Bill Blackman of Detroit and Phil Daughn of New York a white driver. The last race will be the feature event.
Buses to the race track will be leaving 153th street and 7th avenue, beginning at 11 a. m.
Motor Truck Seriously
A speeding motor truck, No. 1,778,329 ran down an unknown colored man at the corner of Flatbush Ave. Extension and Myrtle avenue. Friday night at about 6:50 p. m., and continued going toward the Manhattan bridge. The victim was hurled from the road to the curb where he landed on his face causing a stream of blood to flow freely. A patrollman standing on the other side of the street saw and started after the reckless driver in the first taxi that came along, caught the gullty driver and brought him back to the scene and put him under arrest

She spanned the crown of my head with her thumb and middle finger, touched my forehead with the money that I had paid her, blew he rebound on the coin, then looking at my head different angles, began reading my character.
Mixing Up the "Lucks"
"Were you ever in here before, did asked. I thought the was supposed to know that, but never. I asked that I have more technicality. I applied this imperative and then began.
"You were born under a lucky star. You are a lucky fellow." The title statement was unnecessary. Anyone would naturally infer that a person born under a lucky star would be lucky.
Then she contradicted herself by saying: "You are lucky in making money but not successful in keeping it. You do not have the luck you once had." That gave me the assurance that I was born for good luck, but bad luck had overtaken me.
She went on to say: "You like to be good to everybody. You are very quick tempered but not for long. You don't like to be bossed." I agreed with her there. She might have told that to anyone, one for who does like to be bossed.
She continued: "Two people don't like you; one is very dark and one very fair." That made me feel like I was not so unfortunate after all, for anyone who has only two enemies in this wide world must have been born under a lucky star. Furthermore she played safe by saying that one was dark and one was fair. She had it going and coming.
Prescribe "Luck" for $50
She went on to say: "You are plaiting speaking. You tell people right to their faces just what you think. Somebody has put a spell on you."
I looked up at her and she continued with: "You are not superstitious. Some one has left you. Do you want me to give you good luck?" I accepted her offer of luck but it had a string tied to it, for she asked me: "Have you won fifty dollars?" I informed her that I had fifty dollars. I would not have entered there.
After leaving the first gypsy I visited three others in the space of less than three quarters of an hour. Each one told me some things that agreed with the first one; some told things not mentioned by her, and not one of them told anything that was worth while.
I found the second one in West 135th street between Lenox and Seventh avenues. She too began by asking if I had been in there before. Then she repeated the same done: "You lucky yellow. You were born under a lucky star. You are independent. Two people don't like you and try to do you harm." I looked at her but she didn't say, who, when or why.
Dose of "Fresh·Egg Luck"
"You got money in the bank," said me, and I corrected her with: "You mean that I once had money in the bank." Then she fixed it up by saying "You are lucky in making money but not lucky in saving it." Bring me a fresh egg and I will give you luck. I ask her where I could find a fresh egg in New York but she hasn't told me yet.

PILLIAM PORTER NEWS
By JAMES H. HOGANS
The annual convention of officers, chairmen, and delegates, of the Fullman-Porter Benefit Association of America opened in sessions in Chicago on Tuesday, November 18. The meeting is for the transaction of this particular business of the Association, and for whatever matters are brought to its attention for the betterment of the membership. At the time of this article going to press we are uninformed as to what matters for betterment. We were taken up, so there is nothing to be said either for or against what was done or left undone. We will however, record a sentimental which is prevalent among the members of this district regarding what should be done for the members in the large district of the Association. In doing this we do not think that we are unduly premature.
One phase of the Association's effectiveness which needs correction, and of which there have been numerous complaints of late, is the dilatory manner in which sick claims are settled. Another complaint is that members who are ill are not visited by the sick committee and local officers as promptly as they should be. This, it is claimed, results in delayed payments and other unnecessary inconveniences to the ill member. This is a situation which should not exist the benefit department of the Association. While it is a condition for which the Association cannot wholly be held to blame, for it has been found upon investigation that most of the complaints failed to notify the people officers of the Association when they were first taken ill, nevertheless these should be some way by which a sick member can be promptly visited and his payments rendered immediately they are residue.
Under the system now in vogue for attending to disabled members, there are many reasons why this cannot be done. In the first place, the members will comprise the sick committee are on the road most of the time, and it is either, human nor, probable, that any of them are going to give all of their off-time to visiting sick members. As far as the other local officers of the Association are concerned, they also have other duties which demand most of their attention. We do not mean to imply, of course, that they must give the Association's affairs as much of their time as they consistently rank, until the circumstances they cannol give the members, especially the sick ones, that attention to which they are entitled and for which they are assisted. The only remedy, for the situation seems to be in one course, and that is for the Association to have stationary representation on the spot in each large district, whose duty would be to look after, membership, and other matters pertaining to the welfare of the organization. A service of this kind would be of intestable benefit to the Association, as well as convenient and helpful to the members. It would have the effect, of increasing the membership and would be the means of strengthening a social position to those of our group who are qualified to hold one. The failure to create positions for our equipped equine men, a common fault among all classes and condition of our race.
There are hundreds of Negro internal beneficial societies whose only concern appears to be how much surplus money they can accumulate in the saving banks. To make any investment likely, will fignish employment to immigrate of the race, is a prohibited profession with them. Gives of the reasons why we personally have such wholesome respect for the Polkian in Peters' Athletic and Social Clubs is that it is not only a beneficial institution, but an economic feature in the community. Whenever persons, individually for collectively, are the givers of employment they assume a place of respect in the community where they live.
The 'Pullihan Postgres', Benefit Association, we are informed, has a substantial apposus in its treasury. This impay, continues to accumulate, slow just before the officers find it with the interest of this public. For years due, are the same now as they

This is Yason's third year at Atlantic Union College, and he is preparing for a medical career. He has one more year in the preparatory course before entering upon his regular medical studies. He has made splendid record and is popular with his fellow students. In his second year he was elected to serve as a reporter on the Studehs Idea, and this year he has been chosen assistant advertising manager. It is thought that he is the only Negro in the country serving on board of management of a student publication in a mixed school.
He worked systematically in the contest, beginning real active work by sending letters to prospective subscribers in all sections of the country. Favorable responses were many, letters with money, coming from California, Texas, Alabama and other states nearer home. New York and Massachusetts added, largely, to the quota. Young Yeadon is a hard student. During the summer he works in New York, living at the Third avenue address with his father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. Henry C. Yeadon sr., and two sisters.
HM CROW TABLETS FOR WAR HEROES IN REGISTER'S OFFICE
Washington, D. C. Vigorous protests are being made against the separation of, the names of, white and Negro. Treasury employees killed in the war on tablits, recently placed in the lobby of the department register's office. One of the protests, addressed to President Coolidge by West. A. Hamilton, commander of the James E. Walker Post of the American Legion, described the action as a most vicious bit of discrimination, and un-Americanism.
Secretary. Stemp, replying, said the matter had been referred to Secretary Mellon at the President's direction. Upon receipt of this letter, the Walker Post dispatched messages to the Walter Carter Post of Boston, Charles B. Young: Post of New York, Lennel Boydston Post of Cleveland, and the 'Tillman Harpole Post, charging that the "drawing of the color line in death" was an insult to 400,000 "Negro veterans" and ungrilling them to jolin the protest to the Secretary.
Samuel B. Hart Is Given Largest Majority In Race For Legislature From Phil.
Philadelphia, Pa.—One of the outstanding results of the recent election here was the victory of Samuel B. Hart, elected to the State Legislature, from the 7th ward, to succeed Andrew J. Jevens.
A recapitulation of the vote shows that Mr. Hart was elected by a larger majority than was given any other legislative candidate of the more than two score chosen from Philadelphia a district.
Mr. Hart was formerly connected with the Philadelphia Tribune and is in of the best known men in the city. He is a cousin to Mrs. Anna E. Charlton, of 405 Cumberland street, Brooklyn, N. Y., mother of Dr. Nicole Charlton, A. A. G. O., famous organist; Mrs. Florence Charlton Woodton, and Dr. Emily Charlton, putterist.
were when the association started, and the service which it gives is, in something, poorer. It is the employment of representatives to look after the sick members in the local district, not a feasible proposition, then reduction of ideas, certainly. These are the prevalent ideas among the younger members of the Association, and unless the guiding hearts take some cognizance of these sentiments, the Association will be the loser for it should be borne in mind that the prosperity of the organization lies in the hands of the young members.
J. H. Green, a native of Virginia, and a prominent member of the Metropolitan Baptist Church, conceived the idea, when he was discharged from the army in 1919, of buying apartments then being rapidly vacated by whites and opening them up to colored tenants. Through his efforts the Progressive Commercial Association of America, Inc., was organized among the members of Metropolitan Church with a capital stock of $100,000. Acquired Several Properties. About half the stock issued was sold, and with the cash obtained the 8 story apartment of the adjoining apartment at 2400 Seventh avenue, were purchased. The company, later, purchased two, more houses on 451st street, near Lenox avenue, all of which were turned over for colored occupancy. But unlike, many of the new landlords they rented their apartments at; an average of $10 per room, even though they were comparatively new, and contained all modern conveniences.
So successful was the real estate venture that the company, decided to branch out' Mr Green, who before the war had been in the street paving business, thought that 145th street was a good location for a hardware and builders supply store. One of the small stores was tried for a year as an experiment, under Mr Green's perseverance. Business was good that, when the lease on another store 'expired' the hardware-business moved into larger quarries; increased the stock and employed two extra clerks.
The corporation has five hundred stockholders and is run by a board of directors which includes the following: J. H. Green, president; C. B. Moussegone, vice president; I. J. Smith secretary; J. D. Anderson treasurer; I. Turner, general manager; L. I. Stostall. S. Caine. J. A. Johnson. J. A Gould. J. W. Hunter. William Greenhow. G. H. Murray, and W. H. Burton.

Immediate Need for Care
There is a good deal of benefit derived from studying the records of the Health Department from week to week. From figures we can sometimes visualise what is happening in the homes of the people who are our neighbors, and when the picture is happy, it is as, as though we had heard good news. We find the day going with a swiftness which means content and peace of mind. When the picture is not so favorable, the articles for the week are not so easily written.
Just now, the Bulletin from the Health Department has, given a picture of measles. This city had more measles last year than, had the preceing year. In 1921 and 1922 there were about 1000 deaths from measles in this city.
It is needful that parents and older sisters watch the children with greater vigilance than ever. Keep them away from children who have running noses and coughs. Prevent them from going into homes in which there is a back child who may or may not be coming down with measles "Pounce" upon the youngster who put toys which have been handled by other children into the mouth. Take the toy away if necessary. Keep the child's hand clean.
If there has been a case of measles in the neighborhood, urge the cause to keep the rules of quarantine up on the family involved and in the vicinity. Talk of the obligation of each family to safeguard the little children from the risk of disease. Public opinion is a powerful thing and you should take an active part in forming it along correct and important lines. The appropriate individual does not realize what tremendous fact he can be in consequence down the number of deaths, which
Text: 'Revelation 5: 8
And when he had taken the book and four hearts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Land, having every one of them hurgs and golden vials, full of odors which are the prayers of Saints.
I want to have you think of the fragrance of heaven, the connection of heaven and earth, and prayer as the divine chant. Heaven and earth are not so far apart. It would be awful to have all the efforts we put into service as only association of individuals. No one would dare to object as we listen to this verse just read that it means our association with God.
I have heard the prayers of my people and have come down to deliver them, said Jehovah. With a mighty arm, and outstretched hand, that God is just as near as when Moses aton gaving on Him wrapped with fire, and consolations of the fact that he was on Holy Ground. Whatever sorrows we may have I pray we may realize that we are on Holy Ground, and God speaks. This ought to be an inspiration, and determination to those who pray: "Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea."
Many questions are based concerning the philosophy of prayer. I cannot answer them, but I know that it is a divine channel. We know very little of the laws of earth; for instance, the law of gravitation; but we see the results.
We who find joy, and contentment in praying to God, is it strange to us as to its philosophy? I say not. It is a revelation of God to His children. The sweetest perfume going up into heaven is the prayers of His children. Hear me! burdened and sad hearts! Hear me! Ye who are persecuted! The sweetest perfume going up into heaven is the prayers of His children. I hear them, as they sat by the Babylonian stream. "Play eject harp." I hear one of the Babylonian say, "How can we play a song in a strange land" the Israelites replied. They hung up their harps and bowed down in sorrow. The next morning, an old King, came and sat the captives free. They prayed and God answered.

Think of your power in terms of human happiness and throw yourself into the exercise of it with the wholeheartedness which so nobler a motive should inspire.
While you guard your own children from others who may be a manace see to it that your own do not threaten them.

The sweetest thing in our home is not the nurture, but love. It will make a poor home sweet. If there is a loving altar to God, that is a happy home. I ally that the prayers of my mother and father have held me. I thank God for the mourning. We must praise in this the home where the Holy Spirit is. God is speaking. A real good character is the essence of life. The power that has a sacred man and women is because some one praised. Angels are not coming from heaven to preach, but the message is given to man and women, who know that their Redeemer lives. We will adumarize prayer into four parts.
I. Little children that are praying at Mother's knee, learning to talk with the Father in Heaven. They are filling the golden valk in sweet essence. Oh my friends, God's son loved children for, He said, "Suffer the little children to come unto me." I honor Samuel say, Did thou call me. When the voice was heard the third time, he cried, "Speak Lord for the servant hearest," Samuel began the great work that God has planned for him, just a little child. God loves children. How close to God the children should be kept, the future is not so far away, but it is wrapped into these children. It is not work spent in vain, training children. What a cry to Sunday-School (teachers, League workers, God's veals are filled with the odors that are arising from children's prayer at Mother's knee.
11. Mothire's prayers. There must be a lot of veals filled with mother's prayer. There is more mother's prayers offered than any other. "My soul be on thy Geeard 'Ten thousand foes arise."
"She knows this, but 'that mother recognizes that her force shall bring the world back to God. 'The seed of a woman shall bruise a serpent's head.' Mothers have been praying these many years. Ah, Mothers! If your prayers seemed not to be answered, do not give up. If the revelry of home is not pleasing God has heard you. When the roll is called, and the setting star is set, the Angel shall say, Amen! Hallelujah! Walk carefully while you are here. The world has nothing in it for you sons. Continue to pray. Joy, and great contentment will come down from Heaven if you live right. 'Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal.' There is going to be a time when God shall open the gates and say to your mother's "Well Done."
III. Prayers of Thanksgiving. How seldom we praise God. The prayer of thanksgiving are filling a lot of these, veals. Are God's promises being fulfilled--They shall not come night thee." Conquer hate by love. Love your neighbor as yourself. The time is coming. If you think it is, Praise God; and say. Everything that has blessed praise God
IV Prayers of Repentance. Praysers of Repentance, are filling the veils. There is joy in heaven, Angels are playing their harps. They are praising God like rolling thunder, all because as sinner is on his knees, and saying "God have mercy." While we are speaking, how I would love to hear a sinner cry out. "Save me." "This day, shout shall be with me in paradise." Our heavenly Father, stretches forth His hand and feeds all of His children. Our Infinite Father sends gifts unto all mankind. I wish you would think of this to-day God serves man who never serves Him. God serves man with crop who never calls upon Him. Our Father has all that you need. God's Eternal Love, shall go to all nationalities and they shall know that God answers payer

Lotte of the divisions.qf the Municipal Court,
Todge-Geotgé was elected on the Republi,
am ticket by: nearly 470,900 votes, leading

will’ be seen: that the election of Judge
George indicated™a growing liberality of
sentiment among the white voters.”
While the result af this election has been
hailed as marking the advent of “the first
Negro judge” to be elected in this country,
he ts not the first lawyer of the race'to hold
2 judicial position. Robert H. Terrell has

George L. Ruffin of Boston served-for sev-
eral years as judge ‘of’ thé Charleston dis-
trict court by appointment of Governor Ben-
jamin F, Butler.
In New York State James C. Matthews
was several times elected recorder of the
County Court at Albany, which position was
of a judi¢iat character, the incumbent being
the judge. A similar use of the’ title of re-
corder to fit a judicial position prevailed
in New York county, where Record =
Smythe and Recorder Goff won their repu-
tation as stern criminal judges until the old
title was aoolished and the latter became
a Supreme Court justice. Under the process
of reconstruction in the South, immediately

egroes to fill judicial positions, which they

WHEN THE GREEKS BEAR GIFTS
A new fad appears to have been adopted
by the so-called Ku Klux Klan m various
parts’ of the North, namely, the ‘visiting: of
‘Negro churches at some servige with 2 con-
tribution of money which ee forced upon the
pastor, whether he is willing or not. Two
‘of these incidents of the modern “Greeks
bearing gifts” were reported in last week's
issue of The Age. In the New Jersey tow
snentioned, the klan came to a Sunday night
service, fully hooded'and masked, and gave
the sum needed to complete a mortgage
Payment on thé church property. The pas:
tor.had developed a case of chills and fever
when the coming visit was announced and
did not fill his pulpit that night. ~
In the secdnd case reported, which was
in New York State, at Huntington, Long
Island, the pastor was present at the service
when some twenty white men, neither
irasked nor_robed, presented to the church

nor “ant"-anything, save to the mingling of
races. As the mingling of races, in this
case. as in most others where it occurs, is
due to thé intrusion of the whites. we can-
not sce tha: this announcement accounted
in any way for their yisit or the unsolicited
donation. :
This persistent effort af the klan in cer
fain sections of the North to throw dust in
the eyes of the black folks for whoni they
pretend such good feeling, is suggestive af
the old story of the Greeks offering gifts to
titer adversaries whom they wished to be-|
tray by putting them off their guard against
ueachery, It 1s entirely in keeping with the
utterances of an advocate of the klan at the
meeting of the Republican State convention
eld at Rochester last September. This
speaker, who discredited the garb of the
cierical profession, endeavored to assure the
editor of The Age that the klan harbored no
evil designs against the Negro. |
“It's the Jews and the Catholics that we're,
after.” he eaid. “Your folks have nothing
to fear from us.” The editor retorted by
saying: “That's what you tell us now. How
de. we know what you say to the Jews and
the Catholics.”
So regardless of whether the ultimate oh-
Ject of the klan’s hatred was Negro, Jew of
Catholic. the fight to have the conventior
denounce its evil practices was persisted ‘y
antl the committee on resolutions was wor
over by a bare majority.
As (o the propriety vi allowing the klan

But the bearing of such gifts must not blind

A glorious day was enjoyed by all who attended the services at the church on Sunday. "If the morning Pastor Bolden preached from the following text:
"And all this assembly shall know that the Lord saveth not with sword and sword for the battle is the Lord and he will give you into our hands."
1 Samuel 17:47.
Pastor, Bolden, Said. "The historical events, outlined in this section of the book of Samuel, are significant because of their ethical value and spiritual symbolism. The father of David, Jesus, sent David to the army of Saul to carry refreshments, from home to his other military, sons. David came into the camp of Saul, king of Israel, at a time when Saul, from whom the Spirit of the Lord had departed because of his disobedience, and sarcophied when the giant-warrior, Goliath, was challenging him for the opposite camp of the Philistines, to personal battle. After David heard this boastful uncircumplied Philistine, and notting the fear that was over the king, his generals and young warriors; because of his personal experience with God's relation and power with the Israelite service, Israelite king. He asked to be beheaded to be guilty this gigantic and haughty warrior. After receiving criticism and derision from his brothers, doubtful but helpful aid from the king, scorn and contempt from the Philistine champion, he went upon the in name of the God of Israel, with the means for defense and slaughter that he was acquainted with.
The result was that a pebble from his sling struck the boastful strong man in the forfeited and felled him to the ground, and little David, the shepherd boy, the skillful musuan, the secret appointed king of Israel, the God-fearing and loving singer, he who had rescued a lamb from the jaw and paws of a lion, the hungry bear, and shattered them both, fearlessly and courageously rushed upon the fallen military victim and draws from the victim's seabass this own glittering weapon, cut off his head and pinioned it upon the point of the sword, holding it aloft and carrying it to the camp of Israel.
This struck terrors to the Philistines and around the fighting destructive spirit of the army of Israel. The result was that they united the Philistines and armed them, hence Israel won the battle through the skill and courage of David in the Name of Lord.
To-day sacrilege and disobedience will deprive professed followers of our Lord the Emanuel from having his approval and power at times when they need it most. But for the people who are what they are because of their leaders and rulers, God has in reserve and will give them in due time the right and true leader and deliverer, when the circumstance paranutes it and the need is known. The boastful militarist, intellectual and the pamourous wealthy sojourners of the truth and teachings of our Lord and the gospel of His kingdom, are being slayed by just such appearing insignificant characters actions, words and deeds as symbolized in the poem of mourning, pebble, the death dealing sword, and the severed head. Let us take courage, the battle to-day is our Lord's, and the victory will be ours if we are out in His Name against greed, theft, immorality, gambling, bootlegging law breakers, religious seekers and ungodliness.
At 2 p.m. in the Sunday school was opened by the Superventend, Rev W. H. Hogans. At the close of the lesson study a short review of the given by Master Stuart Wayy, Miss Claudia Wilkerson and Miss Allanzi Wise

Mrs Jerusha Cisco; solo, William Townsend, solo, Miss Estelle Dyson, remarks by Rev. Baker; closing remarks by Rev Richard Manuel. Bolden.
The evening service was largely attended. The Rev Arthur Coleman preached text, "And when the Philistines heard the David was anointed king over all Israel, all the Philistines went up to seek David. And David heard it and went out against them them. And the Philistines came and spread themselves in the valley of Repham. And David enquired of God saving Shall I go against the Philistines and will tell them deliver them into mine hand? And the Lord said unto him: up. If I will deliver them to mine hand. So they came up to razam, and David came up to them. Then David said, God hath broken upon mine hands by mine hand like the breaking forth of waters, therefore the called the name of that place Baal-pazeram." Cronicles 14. 8. 11 17
The dinner was served the day by the members of 40 S, M and I, S. society and $85 was given to the church. Beginning November 20 to December 5 will be the celebration of the Harvest Home and bazaar. On the opening night a musical recital will be given under the choir of the
Rush Memorial Church
At the eleven o'clock service last Sunday, Dr Oliver preached on the 'Changeless, Christ Text found in Hebrew, 11.8
In part, the speaker said: 'There are things which Jesus never says meaning that the various changes are taking place and things which exist now did not exist when He was there but even though the seasons change and science is alterable, there is no change in the teaching or repentance the foremost thought which John the forerunner of Jesus, tried to bring out, and it is only through repentance that the world can be saved. Repentance is the only hurry for things, it is the thing to abate and maltite (Christ says: "We must be born again; and there is no change in creed today; we must repent of our sins in order to enjoy the goodness of the changeless.'
The Philosophy which is being taught by professors in the various schools is filling the bounds of graduates with
double the church with consens-
ing but this is by the putting
minging and when Christ
life is after a general transi-
tion he been no change in the
in and in church. The
in and in unchanging.
At night Dr. Oliver preached on text found in *St. John* 7:46 and *Phillipians* 3:12. *Sibjett* *Trollley* *Carl*. This session, also, was interesting and instructive. The rallies are compared as the way of salvation, the way of the way. Bible, place of the trollies from whence, comes the power. The more head, the more power we obtain. We are good motormen. And it is up to us to run the car successfully.
Abyssinian Baptist Church
Rev. J. Francis Robinson, field specialist of the National Baptist Convention delivered an informing sermon to a good sized audience. The spiritual atmosphere was enriched by the soft, melodius voice of Mrs. J. Alberta Cilpin, of Richmond, Va., who rendered "Ave Maria."
Rev. M. L. Shepard, assistant pastor, imparted to the evening audience more grace spirituality with his stirring message. To say the least, it was a wonderful day in Abyssinan.
Rev. M. L. Sheard will presach both morning and evening next Sunday. The public, will be overjoyed, to learn that Dr. A. Clayton Powell will take his long vacant place in the pulpit Sunday morning, November 30, at eleven o'clock.
St. James Prosbyterlan
The Sisley and Blake sacred concert at 5t. James Presbyterian Church at 3:30 o'clock on last Sunday drew a large and enthusiastic audience. The program was given under the auspices of the Young Woman's Progressive Circle
The infant daughter of Mr and Mrs. Roberts Dawes was baptized at 3 p.m. This sermon Sunday evening was built around the subject, "America's attitude towards human justice." The fall fair opened with a large audience Monday night and was preceded with a musical program by the choir, which included the booths housekeepers of Harlem can buy many useful household articles for half the price of the same articles in the market.
Hother Zion Church
Promotion at 10 a.m. m. Sunday, November 16, the services of the Junior Church were opened. There was a large attendance. The sermon was preached by Dr. Brown who announced his next visit to the church. He began relating a story of a farmer who had a very fine potato patch. Among those who came to see it were the potato burgu whose purpose was to destroy. The farmer destroyed them, and among them was a Lady Bug. She had been with bad company and met her fate. He admonished the young people to refrain from evil associates. Further services were left in charge of Rev. P. A Price. At 11 a.m. m. Dr. Brown preached in the main auditorium. There was the usual large attendance. The pastor reached on the subject "The Relief of a Zerubabel." 4.1. After arousing the prophet from his sleep, the Angel then delivered the message of the Lord, which was that the walls were to be rebuilt. In rallying the forces for the accomplishment of this work, there must be a leader. In the work spoken of in the text Zerubabel was the desigated leader. The speaker emphasized Jehovah and that in nation, state and church there must be leadership. Angelic visits were of various natures—while some were visits which brought joy and happiness; while others were with that leadership was ordained of brought sadness and death. He spoke of prosperity as the result of angelic visits, while the advertisements were the sequences of, forgetfulness of their administration.

At the morning worship, Rev. Geoffrey
Shippen Stark, pastor, gave a most comforting and tender message. He took his text from Isaiah 9:16: "Behold I have graven the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me." Rev. Stark brought out in his discourse that God knows each single individual in the mass of individuals. He knows each individual's needs and cares and worries, and so each individual must go to, and know God as My Lord. My God, as did Thomas. What a source of strength and peace there is through this divine remembrance, that God has the name of each one of His children graven upon the book of man. Divine remembrance enables God to see man as he shall be when the work of goodness is at this service the infants of Mr. and Mrs. Herbert F. Titus and Mr. and Mrs J. D. Todd, Jr. were christened.

Urban League Benefit
Ball at Manhattan Casino
Draws Large Attendance
One hunder women engaged in social work staged an entertainment last Friday night at the New Manhattan Casino that eclipsed all other social functions of the season so far. They had one of Paul Whitman's bands as a drawing card, and approximately 2500 people gratified their desire to listen or dance to the strains of those well known musicians.
The principal feature of the evening of pleasure was the midnight concert by the stars of the Chocolate Dandies company, whose song and dance specialties won applause repeatedly. Noble Sissie sang "You Ought. To Know How Much I Love You," and "Sons Of Old Black Joe." Eubie Blake being his accompanist. Other members of the company featured special numbers.
The occasion was a benefit hall for the Urban League, Mrs Bernia L Austin and Mrs Eva T. Parkes were in charge of the committee on arrangements of John C Smith's Modern Orchestra furnished the delightful dances music during the earlier hours of festivities.
Philadelphia, Pa. An important greeting of the Commissioners of the Mutual Association of Colored Baseball Clubs was held in the Southwest Branch, V. M. C. A. on Saturday, November 15. All of the commissioners were present except Alexander Pompez, owner of the Cuban Stars, who was unable to attend because of more urgent business in New York. Several developments occurred that may or may not affect the Eastern body the coming season, but one thing is definite, and that in the same eight clubs which composed the circuit last season, will remain for 1925. Of course in November it is difficult to predict what the personnel of any of the clubs, will be when April rolls around; but rumors are rife regarding trades of players and it is likely that many will be sporting new uniforms next season. The league was organized in 1923 as a six-club circuit and increased to eight clubs in 1924. It has the distinction of being the only organization of colored clubs to have gone through an entire season, without one of the member clubs cracking under the strain and dropping out are the season closed.
At the meeting on Saturday it became known that the Bacharach Giants of Atlantic City has deposed Thomas Jackson as Commissioner for the club and that Hammond Daniels, who has long been identified as financial backer of the team, will represent the Bacharachs. Another change in the personnel of the commission was the replacing of Ben Taylor by owner George W. Robinson of the Washington Potomacs. Any partnership that formerly existed between Robinson and Taylor has been dissolved and Ben has been deposed as manager of the Washington team.
The meeting was preliminary to the annual meeting which will be held in Chicago in conjunction with the meeting of the National Negro Baseball League, of which Rube Foster is president. The slogan of those present was "On to Chicago" and it is very likely that a 100 per cent attendance will go to Chicago in December.
Lincoln And Tuskegee Leading For Football Honors Of 1924 Season
As the football season for 1924 enters upon its last two weeks, Lincoln University and Tuskegee Institute are leading for honors in the East and South. Ideal fall weather has made the attendance at practically all games above averages but there have been few new stars developed in either the colored schools or among colored students in white schools.
In the South, where Morehouse College held the championship for a number of years, Tuskegee Institute is enjoying, under the coaching of Cleave Abbott, the best football team in its history, and by far the best in that section this season. The Tuskegee Tigers have led all the colored schools in rolling up big scores against their opponents, humiliating Fisk, Morehouse, Talladega and Mahanfa State Normal in this fashion.
Among the teams of the Colored Intercollegiate Association the race has been much closer. The smaller schools such as Virginia Normal, A and T College of Greensboro, N.C. and West Virginia Collegiate Institute have been unusually strong this season. Union University has also a good team, but by not playing Howard, their schedule is a bit lighter than those of Lincoln, Howard, and Hampton. Howard and Lincoln, with full schedules, are tied for the honors of the Association but from present indications, Lincoln will again trumpph over Howard when they meet in Washington on Thanksgiving Day. With the exception of Union, who held them to a scoreless tie early in the season, Coach Young's Lions have won toughshod over all opposition. Lincoln has the fastest set of backfield runners in the Intercollegiate Association. Byrd has no equal in his ability to run back jumps and is easily the outstanding player in the Fast His colleagues, Taylor and Goodman, are also consistent ground gamers and are veterans of several seasons.
Coach Morrison has a slight advantage on the line and he has estimated that he has been holding something back for the Thanksgiving Day game, but at present the odds are strongly on favor of the Pennsylvania team

Mr. Brower his public statement told the dox and approval on the discrimination against colored fighters and was one of the first to give his approval to the mixed bout between Kell Nortrol and Tom Tobias.

The remembrance Five, with which it newly incorporated the Commonwealth Trust, opened the basketball season in late afternoon Saturday night, September 15, 1946, with the strong National Turner Trust that year’s champions of New Jersey. The local team won a 26-24 victory, but only because the white players made three fouls.
In the first half the home team was really outplayed and only shot two field goals, but in the last few minutes they came back strong and overtook the visitor’s lead through the shooting of Slocum, Fial and Jenkil, four inwards, were so closely guarded that they were unable to make a field goal.
Montgomery, Ala. After the Tuskegee Tigers had been held scoreless to the first half, the Alabama State Normal Yellow Jackets crumbled under the crushing attack of Joyner, Stevenson, Bailey and Wooten in the second half and were defeated 28-7 at Champington Bowl. Friday afternoon, November 14
Alabama State Normal made her touchdown in less than three minutes after the kickoff. A pass from Captain Hall to Johnson for 30 yards was carried across the goal and Giltmer drop kicked for the extra point. With their seven points tucked away, the Yellow Jackets stopped every offensive launched by Tuskegee in the first hard.
Coach Abbott gave his charges a good talking to during the halves and they played a different game the last two quarters. Displaying the power and speed of former games Stevenson circled the ends. Bailey and Wooten slipped off tackle for first down after first down until the ball rested on the Yellow Jacket's 8 yard line. Then Wooten smashed through left tackle across the goal line. Stevenson tied
Washington, D. C.—Howard University eleven successfully passed its crucial test before the Lincoln-Howard game on Thanksgiving Day by defeating Hampton, 7-3, before 3000 students and friends of the two schools at Griffin Stadium on Friday afternoon, November 14.
The game was hotly contested, throughout with Hampton showing the more varied attack. Howard stuck to her usual policy of playing straight football and waiting for a break to put the ball striking distance of her opponent's goal.
A break came when a penalty placed the ball on Hampton's twelve yard line. Then came a forward pass from McLam to Brown, left end, who got across the line for the only touchdown of the game. Payne, quarterback for Howard, executed a beautiful place kick for the extra point.
Hampton's field goal came in the first quarter when Howard's fullback fumbled twice in attempting to punt. Cunn made a drop kick for thirty yards, the only score made by his team. Coach Young and the entire Lincoln University backfield viewed the game from the sidelines, but Coach

It was a splendidly appreciative group of people representing both races, but with Caucasians most in evidence, that heard the musical program given before the Friday Night Social Club of the Community Church of New York, 34th street and Park avenue, the Rev Dr John Haynes Holmes, pastor, under the direction of Augustus Granville Dill, of the Crisis magazine, a musician of attendant and an authority in art and literature.
This occasion he had enlisted the services of Charlotte Waltie Murray, contralto; Garfield Warren Tarrant, bzitone; the Jesse Covington, pianist; Countee P. Cullen, poet-reader; Mr Dill himself served the singers as accompanist.
years ago (more or less) I lived in Washington and was director of the choir of Israel C. M. E. Church, located in street, southeast, over nea the Capitol. The contralto so lost the choir was a talented young girl familiarly known to her estimates as "Lottie" Wallace. She showed promise of developing a one singer. When, on Friday night, November 14, in this community Church program, I heard "Lottie" Wallace (now the Mrs. Charlotte Wallace Murray, wife of one of New York's distinguished surgeons) sing first a group of Negroes and then a group of art songs by Burleigh and Coleridge. I realized that the promise of the past had eventuated into
it was the first time I had heard her sing since the old Wasan days and whether justifiable or not, there was unconscious the fact, that in her youth and less developed days I had recognized, her talent and looked forward to her becoming the eldest artist she is today.
Mr. Murray possesses a voice of great natural beauty, and the foundation has been erected a structure of almost perfect proportions. Vibrant, colorful and sensitive it lands itself well and without effort to nuance and dynamic effects other words consciously and liberously to strive for. The singing has ample technical resources and her impeccable phrasing is useful in cut articulation and mitonation. The lower register and resonance, the middle voice is smooth and even, patterns are thrillingly effective.

The Prampin School's Annual Recital And Contest
ninth annual recital of the Harry and Laura Prampin
of 131 West 136th street was rendered at New
17th street, near Lexington avenue, on Friday eve-
rior 14. The program was rendered entirely by pupils
at being announced by the management that no par-
ses been recruited from other sources
or orchestra was conducted by Mr Prampin, while
directed the Novelty Drum and Bugle Corps, con-
tudent
are rendered by the following students, in addition
to numbers Miss Constance Innis, piano, 3rd year;
and violin 3rd year, Miss Arlice Hewett, trombone,

grovenor piano, 2nd year, Columbus Carter, corner,
William Reavis, bass tuba, 3rd year, Richard Atkinson,
3rd year, Harvey Young, clarinet, 2nd year
interesting feature of the recital was a saxophone contest
by six of the school's students, the award being a
and costly 14-karat gold medal. The students taking
contest were Otha Colenfagh Reginald Smith, Seargent
William Harris, Joseph Belardint and Lloyd Cline.
A five judges passed unpunched students' efforts and
based on tone execution and phrasing. The judges
wille Charlton, A. A. G. O. Herbert J Kline, violin-
lct. Mr. Slater, president of the King Slater Co., the musical instruments; Lieut. Ridgeley, director of the 69th Infantry band; and Evelyn H. White of The New York Age. It was their unanimous decision that the medal be awarded William Harris, a third-year student.
Immediately following the saxophone contest, Mrs. Prampin rendered a group of solos, including "Ernani, by Gahme," from Verdia opers, "Ernani," "Door of Hope," and "Why live a life!" by Dr Wolf Gilbert. Lawrence Hudson played the companion melodies. Pupils of the school presented a gorgeous floral basket to Mrs. Prampin, and a large bouquet to Mr. Prampin.
Music for dancing was furnished by an orchestra composed entirely of pupils of the school, and a toothsome and appetizing supper was served by Mrs. Prampin and her assistants. The menzi comprised chicken salad, potato salad, pig's feet smothered in oka, tomatoes, green peppers and onions, with tolls and crackers. The food was cooked personally by Mrs. Prampin, who demonstrated that her musical activities had not lessened in the slightest degree her culinary ability.
The second of the monthly Sunday afternoon artist's recitals at the Martin-Smith Music School, 139 West 136th street, marked the appearance of Miss Sonoma, Carolyn Talley, pianist, a graduate from the Fisk University musical department, Nashville. Tenn. and from the artists' course at the Damrosch-Institute of Musical Art; New York City. Miss Talley is a member of the faculty at the Martin-Smith School, and a brilliant young musician.
Other duties made it impossible for the reviever to be present, but hearers who possess discriminatory taste and qualified judgment authorize the statement that her playing was of the highest order. Her program included numbers by Bach-Liszt, Schumann, McDowell, Chopin, Grainger, DeBussy and Schuberi-Tausig.
The next recital is to be given on Sunday. November 30, the program by Howard V, Aaron, baritone, an artist pupil of Mme. Selika of the school faculty, with Miss Talley at the piano.
The Dextra Male Chorus Sings Finely At Town Hall
The Dextra Male Chorus Sings Finely At Town Hall
William C. Elkins, conductor, presented the Dextra Male Chorus, an aggregation of Negro musicians founded and developed by himself, at Town Hall on Monday night, November 17, in an elaborate and lengthy program. The Chorus is one of the distinctive elements of New York's musical life, and Mr. Elkins and his conductors are to be commended for the splendid spirit shown in being willing to make the personal sacrifices of time and effort necessary to the perpetuation of this worthy musical effort.
There are supposed to be fifty voices in the chorus, but that number hardly materialized for this recital. The group that did take part was well balanced and of splendid tone, and gave a rendition that deserves the highest praise. It struck me that Mr. Elkins, as conductor, was unnecessarily strenuous, his activities at times tending to distract one's attention from listening to looking about singers were well schooled and they followed his gymnastics with unwavering and unfaltering fidelity.
The ensemble work was well done, the dynamics, being especially impressive. The choir of first tenors, with its high light tones, stood out with vividness against the solid texture of the second tenor phalanx, and the sombre hue of the baritone and basso groups was made bright and wrought into a happy blend of the whole sound picture.
The effect would have been better if the chorus had been subdued a bit more when singing against the obligato solo voices. While this was true in all of the six numbers of this character, it was specially noticeable in the final group when William Loguen, second tenor, was doing the solo part. And, by the same token, it was less noticeable in the same group, when Abbie Mitchel, soprano, came in and sang the Elkins' arrangement of "Swanee River," with the chorus accompanying Mr. Elkins had given the male singers an effective harmonic structure, hummed with closed lips. The restraint which this induced probably accounts for the effectiveness of Miss Mitchell's singing in this number.
The ensemble numbers included Negro Spirituals as arranged by Mr. Elkins; with concerted numbers by Kremster, Broomeer, Storch, Hebron, Zollner, Schertzinger, Sprague, Adams, and Burleigh, with special arrangements of some of these numbers by Mr. Elkins and Hall Johnson. The soloist with the choruses were Clarence Tisdale, George Jackson, James Mantell Thomas, Arthur Fl. Payne, William Loguen and Miss Mitchell. William H. Taylor was at the piano for the Chorus.
"Assisting artists weer Miss Abbie Mitchell, soprano with Dr. Melville Charlton as accompanist, and Edward Steele, a blind pianist. Each contributed two groups to the program. Miss Mitchell sang in French an aria from Massenget's "Le Cid"—"Weap, mirte eyes,"—as her first offering and her second group consisted of Schubert's "Margaret at the Spinning Wheel," sung in German, and the aria, "Spring had come," from Coleridge-Taylor's "Death of Minnehaha" from the trilogy, "Hiawatha."
Mr. Steele played Tschaikowski's "Scherzo a la Russe" and Brahms' Rhapsodie in G minor. He displayed a fluent and cleancut technique an ingratiating legato and a wise and conservative pedalling. At times and this was especially evident in the finale of the Russian number, there was a tendency to accelerate the tempo which made for confusion of the harmonies. The blind musician has a keen perception which enabled him to give a satisfying performance.
Business arrangements for the recital were in the hands of Arthur H ("Strut") Payne, business representative. The Chopus has its headquarters at 137 West 427th street.
The program was broadcasted with splendid success by WJZ (Radio Corporation of America) from 8:30 to 9:45 p.m. which embraced the major portion of the renditions.

THE MAYOR
PORO COLLEGE HEADS PAY $38,408 INCOME TAX FOR YEAR 1923
Payment Ranks the Malones Among Largest Taxpayers Of The Eastern Missouri District.
St Louis, Mo.—One of the interesting bits of news developing through the publicity given the income tax paying public of the country is found in the fact that among the largest sums paid by residents of the Eastern Missouri District was that paid by Mrs Annu M Turnbole Malone, founder and owner of the Poro College Pendleton and St Ferdinand avenues. The payment was $38,408
The story of the growth and development of the business started in 1900 in her modest home at Lovejoy. Ill now occupying a marmoth modern history brick building, with an annex of generous proportions, is full of interest. The manufacturing and sale of cosmetics for the beautifying of skin and improving hair has become a commercial enterprise representing a financial movement of $750,000.
The Poro College has become more than a mere hair straightening concern. With it, growth has come expert chemical knowledge, and now there is put on daily, a complete system of beauty culture, making for the physical improvement of the women of the tree. More than 75,000 agents in all sections of the country, are engaged in propagating the Poro system, and these assistants handle all of the Poro preparations - face powders, perfumes, cold creams, lotion, hair and scalp oils, chapody preparations, hair powders, and other sundries.
In 1902, seeking a larger field, Mrs. Malone, (then Miss Turnbo) came to Sr Louis and opened a modest shop at 2223 Market street. In 1910 the growth made larger quarters necessary and these were found at 3100 Pine street. In 1913, Mr Malone who was principal of the high school at Quincy, III, came on the scene and became husband and partner of the founder. Pio College continued its expansion under their joint efforts, and in 1918, the present main 3-story building was completed and occupied. The anthro was erected in the next few years.
In the home office there are 175 employees, and at least 1,000 outside agents are trained annually in the use of Poro preparations. For the use of the employees, the building contains an auditorium, a cafeteria, a bake-shop, and hospital facilities, with completely appointed beauty parlors for public accommodation. There is an ample other equipment of typewriters adding machines, dijetaphones and other appurtenances of a systematized high-powered bookkeeping arrangement. The employees are all uniformed, except the executive officer, and there is an atmosphere of alertness and blak service that impresses the visitor on every side. Mr. and Mrs. Malone are credited with being, worth more than $1,000,000.

and it is worthy of remark that they are among the most liberal given to charity, social welfare, religious and educational prospects in this city. In May, 1924, they gave $25,000 to the downtown Y. M. C. A. building fund, and they had previously given $5,000 to the colored branch Y. M. C. A. on Pine street.
Later, alleges Mr. Reed, Arnold again sought him out and talked over the liquor transaction. In the meantime, Reed had spoken to a friend about the whisky and through this man, another friend, a chef cook on the Pennsylvania Railroad, learned of the proposition, and this cook had gotten in touch with Reed. The upshot was that Arnold put Reed and his friend in touch with Bow, and then left pleading an appointment with Mrs. Arnold.
Their liberality has provided for St. Louis one of the most complete and modern Negro ophanganes in the U. S, they having provided a $10,000 site and contributed several thousand dollars to the building fund. The medical department of Howard University was given $10,000, and substantial contributions have been made to the schools at Wilber-
Arrangements were made by which Reed and the cook were to get the stuff at 10 o'clock that night and it was this mission that took them again to the 124th street house. Hero again was found the young white girl. White Bowen and the cook were talking over the transaction, going into another room for that purpose, the girl started a Vitreola playing and asked Reed to dance with her.

4th Annual Chrysanthemum Exhibit at Tuskegee Insti
Tuskegee Institution, Ala.—More than five hundred prize chrysanthemums flanked their regal beauty against the wisdom of the deciding judges at the fourteenth annual chrysanthemum show held here Armistice Day. At 1:30 p. m., the doors of the academic building gymnasium, where the show was held, were thrown open, and two thousand spectators viewed the cimson gold, and purple blossoms during the afternoon.
Although flower growers had an unusually bal. season for chrysanthemum raising, the exhibits at the show this year were splendid specimens. The golden yellow flowers were more plenitiful than either the cimson or the white, and they were particularly large.
The five prizes, all of which were money awards, were announced by Warren Logan, the Institute's retired treasurer.
Mrs. M. J. Daniels of Greenwood, Ala, was winner of the founder's prize 15. The second, third, fourth and fifth went to Mesdames Lulu Johnson, Lefia Carlyle, George Wood and Anha Archer, respectively.
Dr. Moton and Mr. Logan appraised the flower raisers.
Zion Church Sets Aside
$25,000 For Non-Sectarian
Home Mission Development
Washington,D.C-Zion Church recently set aside $25,000 for home mission preachers, and ends out a general invitation to young men, graduating from seminaries and otherwise prepared, to join the ranks of intensive and extensive missionary endeavors. As it is not mainly an effort to swell its own numbers but a drive for increased religious activity among the Negro race, young men and women, regardless of their denominational training, will be acceptable.
In this, the Zion Church also seeks to break selfish denominational cleavage an do encourage and use talent and consecrated acquisition wherever and wherever it is available. The Church believes that the mass formation of our racial units against discrimination and all forms of racial prejudice can best be served by discouraging denominationalism and easl courages fellowship in religion. S. M. Dudley, of Washington, D. C. a layman, has charge of this mission fund and he is being assisted in its adminstration by the bishops and carefully selected board.

Miss Hill's baton, a brand new broom with a big red bow, waved gracefully over her players whose instruments of combs, tin pans, and bicycle pumps made music, "loud and clear."
Baltimore, Washington, and Plainfield, New Jersey, were represented in the list of graduates. Everybody voiced this dinner the best of all.
Anita Turpeau, chairman of the committee of arrangements; Ophelia Settle; Xenla Sedgwick, cheer leader, together with the girls who worked with them, deserve great credit for the success of the affair.
