In explaining this gift, Mr. Eastman said: "Almost the entire attention of educators has been devoted thus far to the white race, but we have more than ten per cent of Negro population in the city, and many of them are deeply ignorant. The only hope of the Negro race and the settlement of the Negro problem is through proper education of the Hampton-Tuskegee type." This gift of $15,000,000 brings Mr. Eastman's gift of charity to education and education to $38,602,900, of which $1,412,000 has been for Tuskegee Institute and $1,000,000 for Hampton. —Hampton-Tuskegee Fund Drive to Boston, Mass. To make possible, a broader educational program whereby Hampton and Tuskegee Institutes will be able to offer courses in business, teacher-training, natural science and agriculture, the trustees and friends of these two institutions launched a Boston last bridge in national campaign toward endowment of $5,000,000. The support of both the whites and Negro population is sought. Boston's quota is $165,000, and the New England quota is $365,000. --- A dinner preliminary to the opening of the campaign was held at which many of Boston's oldest and most prominent families' were represented. Charles E. Mason, Boston trustee of Tuskegee, and chairman of both the New England and Boston campaign committees, presided. the speakers were Principal Robert R. Hammond, Principal James E. Gregg of Hampton; and Dr. Francis G. Peabody of Harvard, senior trustee of Hampton, of which board Chief Justice Taft is chairman. More than 100 special friends of Negro education attended the dinner. Among those at the head table were Miss Alice Longfellow, the daughter of the poet Rev. and Mary A. Frostingham, Mrs N. Pennerock, Hallowell, who led the late Col Halloell, who led Negro troops in the Civil War; and Mrs Charles E. Mason, grand-daughter of John A. Andrew, the Civil War Governor of Massachusetts. "A few years ago I did not expect to live to see the Negro race treated with so much of the spirit of justice and good will" in the South as the white man and Dr. Moton, adding, "I thank God for what Hampton and Tuskegee are doing today to create that mutual good-will." Dr. Moton paid high tribute to a number of particularly liberal givers to Hampton and Tuskegee, including Julius Kroger, $3,000,000, and is spending $1,000,000 a year in building school houses for Negroes throughout the South, and the late Miss Anna T Jeanes of Philadelphia, who gave large sums to provide common schools for Negro girls in country districts of the South. Secret Ballotting In Last Period. In order that everyone may be assured of the fair and square deal in the circulation campaign now being waged by the New York Age's Salesmanship Club" secret balloting will be in vogue during the last period of the campaign. In this way none of the club members can in any way find out how the other club members actually stand, as the club members make out their own reports and put them into the sealed ballot box. This secret balloting is accomplished by putting the ballot box in the local bank during the last period of the campaign, and it is put under lock and seal. The club members put their reports into sealed envelopes, with only their names on the outside, and deposit same in the ballot box. This ballot box will not be opened until the last day of the campaign and not then until all of the club members have reported. Under the system there is positively no way of anyone, knowing what any of the club members are doing—as they do not report even to, the campaign manager during that period. The credits are totaled and determined by the judges of the campaign, who have already been selected from among the most highly respected business men of the community, and whose names are published in the opening announcement. A fair and square deal for every one is the object of The New York Age in this campaign and may the host club member win. department of the State of Georgia. Money was borrowed to replace this stock but it was secured from an inscriptious group of southern business men who soon made it clear that they intended taking over control of the affairs of the organization. What's the National Negro Business League was in session in Chicago last summer a committee put the matter of financing The Standard before Dr. Robert R. Moton, the president. Dr. Moton realized at once the importance of the business league into hostile hands and of preserving it as one of the best examples of successful business administration by colored people. ...

I know this to be true, so ran a recent visit to the White House, the Nation's Chief Executive made inquiries regarding this unique community and listened most attentively to what I had to say about it. Harlem certainly is on the White House Adolphus Freeland, who is president of the Customs inspector's Association, served as testimony and several of those present gave a tribute to Collector Eling, empathizing his sense of justice, fairplay, and bringing out that he conducted the only to the efficiency of the employee. Collector Eling responded to the various speeches, and the declared that during the twenty-one months of his occupancy of the house of Collector of the, the Port's relationship between himself and the force under him has been most pleasant. Please contact relationship, but all are on friendly speaking appearance. Continuing, Collector Eling said: "The men in the Customs service are most efficient. Adolph as they President Coolidge is very and its large Negro population to run a recent visit to the Chief Executive made inquiring community and listened most to say about it: Harlem certain map. It may be that during the administration of President Coolidge, Washington and the Executive Office of the Treasury were required a pull of considerable proportions—political or otherwise—to gain easy access to inner sanctums of the White House, but it certainly is not the case to-day, the language of the state with Mr. Coolidge, the public and Mr. Slimen is stage manager. I found it a far more agreeable experience securing an audience with the President of the United States than with the average New York man of big business. Easy To See President I had never before been a visitor at the White House, but from what I gathered from veteran attaches of the Capital, it is easier to see Mr. Coolidge than it was many of his predecessors. An appointment beforehand is not altogether necessary, and all superfluous ceremony formerly attending such an event has been happily discarded. "See President Proclamation," will a more auspicious event in the life of an American, but the memorable occasion has been shorn of red tape. On Friday morning, November 28, I spent an observing hour at the White House; in fact, it was a "witching hour." What made an indelible impression on my mind's eye was the absence of pomp or show. Those whom I had the pleasure to meet from the President down were just plain folks who greeted you without an air of condescension of times so provocative that whether the President allowed or responsible for the giveaway of this genuinely democratic atmosphere I can't say—but I suspect so. At 11:22 I walked into the White House, and at 11:25 I was seated in Mr. Slemp's large, cheery office, already crowded with Senators, Representatives and others of less note. It has taken me fully from 15 to 30 minutes to get inside a secretary's office in Manhattan, for alter giving to the boy on the door a history of your life sometimes you forget, and for quite a period before commanded to "walk in." Ipon entering the White House I was met by a courteous uniformed attendant, who learning of my admission, directed me to a clerk at a desk outside Secretary Slemp's office. When I informed him of my desire to see Mr. Slemp, he, without hesitation, bade me enter.

ATTEMPT TO GAUGE RACE MILLIONAIRES FROM INCOME TAXES Watt Terry's Holdings Near $2,000,000, Even Though Paid Only $4,600 Tax The statement published in an out-of-town paper that Harlem's reputed Negro millionaires were largely a myth, according to amounts disclosed as having been paid as income tax by various of the wealthiest of the citizens of communities causedomement. The paper referred-to published the amounts paid as income tax by some of Harlem's leading business and professional men, and pointed out that none came within the millionaire class. Well-informed individuals declare that the conclusion drawn by this paper is that income-tax does not always show the actual income received, nor does it give a true index to the amount of income-tax paid does not always show the actual income received, nor does it give a true index to the amount of a man's actual holdings. The paper also paid, according to the records revealed, that was paid by Watt Terry, the realtor, of Brockton, Mass, and New York City, who gives most of his attention, to the Terry Holding Co., Inc., 202 West 140th street. His tax was in the neighborhood of $4,600. This would represent more than $1,000,000 holdings. But, as a matter of fact, those who are familiar with the situation declare that Mr. Terry's real estate holdings in New York City and Brockton total closer to two million dollars than one. And it is also asserted that much of this property is owned outright by Mr. Terry, the rest, a considerable portion, it is said, is subject only to first mortgages. It is entirely probable that there may be others in Harlem who can qualify for the millionaire rating, but it is positively asserted by many that there is no question as to the status of Mr. Terry. In the same connection, it is hard to believe that who will be known to be millionaires several times over, have paid even less income tax than Mr. Terry and other wealthy Harlem Negroes. Colored Girl To Be Executed In Georgia Atlanta, Ga.—The governor has refused to grant a reprieve to Pearl Booth, a Negro girls, convicted of the killing of J. I. Arendale, a night watchman.

The announcement below of club members entered up to date will increase the interest by leaps and bounds. 7th Avenue Hooch Hound Arrested Held on Small Bail Evidence Points To Bribery Of Officials As A Means To Freedom Of Action LIQUOR SELLERS HELD UP Are Arrested Even Though No Liquor Is Found And Made To Pay Notwithstanding that Frank Bastone, who is alleged to control a chain of bootlegging joint on Seventh avenue, was arrested on a bench warrant on December 1 on 'charge of violating a federal injunction prohibiting him from engaging in sale of alcoholic liquors, he was held in the nominal sum of $1,000, and so quickly regained his freedom. The meantime, the illicit establishment company Bastone including the notorious resort at 2360 Seventh avenue, corner 138th street, in the building owned and controlled by Robert W. Willis, the active president of an important auxiliary in one of the largest of the Harlem churches, continues in unrestrained operation. Bastone's openin', referred to last week as being herded by a parade headed with a big brass band, was at the corner of 140th street and Seventh avenue, and from the outside, it gives evidence of the expenditure of a considerable sum of money for furnishings, etc. Heavy hanging, having the appearance of costly silk or satin, decorate the interior of the building, is apparent that Bastone and those associated with him are in no wise fearful of an early stop being put to their bootlegging. Bribery of Officers Believed Relief is prevalent among Harlemites who have paid attention to the way the hooch hounds are working in the community that there is a direct connection between this lawless crowd and the law enforcement officials, both local and national. This connection has led to several conversations with some of the men who were in the saloon business prior to the enactment of the Volstead law and who have been hanging on, in the hope of being able eventually to realize something on an investment which represents practically their entire capital. Speaking in confidence because they do not antagonize either the police or (Continued on Second Page) Every person in the community is more or less directly interested in the campaign. It means handsome reward to club members, a bigger and better paper for every subscriber, and great returns for the advertisers. The names of the community members, their nomination, credits appear above. Their standings will be published every issue hereafter. Entrails up to Wednesday noon are listed.

The first wideawake man who starts to work in any of these unrepresented towns or districts will reap a rich harvest of credits. But enter NOW. Surface Not Scratched Right here in New York there are hardly enough club members to make it interesting. The surface 'of credit possibilities has not been scratched. This campaign is not a kid's game. It is a business proposition and must be taken by red-blinded men and women sooner or later. If you want to get your share in this liberal prize offer, you have a clear field, as competition farther is feared. GET A START by sending to them a blank 'today. Then go after subscriptions as you work at your job—make good, give an hour or two a day of the best that is in you to this work. The reward will surprise and please you. No Losers in Race There will be no losers in this race Ten big prizes, headed by the Buick Coach, constitute, the list of awards, Besides al lprizes The New York Age will pay a 20 per cent. commission to all active non-prize winners. This arrangement assures compensation to all who enter. With such a fair and liberal prize system, for your spare time and interest during the few weeks is, there any reason why you should hesitate to avail yourself of the opportunity? Should Enter Now Those who have been thinking of entering the campaign and have pot done so should lose no further time. Every day that action is postponed is just that much lust lost that can never be recalled. There are rich opportunities in both towns and country for new members to enter the race and make themselves important factors and probable winners of the very best prizes. The time for action is NOW. Determination to win, backed by a little well directed effort during the next few weeks will make anyone a winner. Once in, stay in. As in life's games, political, business—social or otherwise—the most aggressive player, pluck the "plums" while the half bakeh "trust to your luck" variety never get anywhere. Overlooking an Opportunity Those who have entered the campaign and who have not started active work as yet are overlooking the best opportunity of the campaign. Early work means five times as much as the effort after eight. Every subscription order must have the credits are on, means that many levy to get later en-just a few more orders than the others mean the ownership of the lovely car. The campaign is short. But seven weeks remain so that unless you get PAGE TWO started very soon the active club members will get so far ahead of you that you almost impossible to catch you so catch up on everything but every day you lose now is making it doily hard to keep pace with whoever the leaders may be after the first count. Co-operative Proposition The members of the Circulation Campaign are out as salesmen, or salesmen selling the New York Age in its work of selling subscriptions, which always come at this time of the year. It is a cooperative proposition. Instead of paying regular subscription, solicitors The New York Age decided to spend money for the prices of the kind that most people want but feel that they can not afford and to award these prices to the Club members who prove themselves to be the best salesmen or salesmen. The campaign will positively close January 24th. NO matter who is ahead or behind the rate and irrespective of how many subscriptions have been turned in at the time. The remaining days will fly rapidly. They will go before you know it. Remember the credit count occurs Tuesday afternoons and Friday afternoons. Who will top the list next week? Who will lead the field in the second week of the drive? These are the questions that will be claiming the attention of every man, woman, boy or girl in the fortiori, Club members who wish to show friends that they are real contestants who do their best to occupy the position of honor. ...To Announce Standing Tuesday's count will appear in each week's issue. The Friday count will be mailed to every contestant. With the announcement of club members and credits standing the race is on in real-fearst. What can finish victorious in the face of real-competition? If we know character as a quilter will appear among those who have entered the Circulation Campaign. Certainly the winner of first honors will be entitled to admission to defeating such a field, and an entitlement will commendation be due to those who fight the winner and die game. What information regarding this "Everybody Wins" prize distribution will be given by calling on, telephoning or writing the Campaign Department of the New York Age.

Loveloy directs of the National Child Labor Committee, told the delegates that under the present conditions in the south, colored, children are scarcely more attacked down by the exploitation of business men and women.

Clubs, discussed the "Problems of the city dweller" . . . this migration has brought an upheaval for the living habits of southern-colored people" . . . she stated, "upon the new difficulty of living, helpful life in a wholesome surrounding and in a normal and moral tone" . . . She pled for the unprivileged child of the South threatened with this new condition. James' Weldon Johnson, executive secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, explained that the Urban League and the Advancement Association proceeded to the same end by different routes. One prepared the Negro to assume his rights and the African Americans must make themselves fit for all the common rights of American citizens—morally, educationally, economically and physically," he said, "and they must find the way to compel the recognition of this fitness. There is no panacea. Neither education nor economic prowess can do it alone. Publicity backed by money, will go a long way towards getting a hearing." The greatest danger, he feared, was that in submitting a petition they are compelled to under the present laws, that they jim crow their souls and feel that they are where they belong. Dr. J. D. Williamson, vice-president of the Society for Savings, Cleveland, Ohio, said: "I would be false to my heritage if I did not find myself with a deep interest in the problems of the colored population and I am sure that the days of the Abolitionists, only in a new form requiring new adjustments." A message from Secretary of Labor James J. Davis was read by Francis I. Jones, director-general of Employment of the U.S. Department of Labor, who pledged the interest and practical assistance of the Department of Labor to the program of the Urban League Fugene Kinckle Jones, executive secretary of the National Urban League, presented a report of the accomplishments of the League. Its expansion from a combined budget of $8,500 per year to $300,000 yearly, from two paid workers to 175, from 27 executive secretaries to 1 executive secretaries in charge, its inclusion in all cities with a community chest; the operation of its program in softening the process of assimilation in industry, its training of twenty-eight special workers; its institution of "Opportunity" magazine—a journal of Negro life, its work in securing 19 places on the program in industry, its work in Work; its research work and its new industrial department, which is perhaps the most significant development of recent years. One of the most interesting discussions presented was that by Herbert Adolphus Miller of Ohio State University on psychology of the race problem "We must know," he said, "that what is accustomed to be accepted as racial, in large part social and cultural, is that if the problem is not solved (Nevada 1976, 100,000 white in the United States were solved, it would be but a small portion of the problem, that the main thing is that people should learn to live together and to do this we must be able to analyze into their elements the things which make life such as race conflict unless pergons of different races come into contact. Only recently his this contact come, and hysterical persons have us believe that we are meeting in a race which definitely racial. When by accident one group attains dominance over the other, it assumed this to be due an inherent superiority. There is no evidence of any such inherent superiority for when conditions are reversed, we find the former subordinate race falling into the same habit. Nothing has happened to Negroes that has not recently happened to women. More Jews have been killed since the war than there have been Negroes lynched in the United States. Negroes are very much alike. If must we together, we must look within to develop self-respect and solidarity and look without for cooperation."

Hoover Joints Near School The hooch. Bounds seem to have some special affinity for the neighborhood of public schools. One of the new localities to be entered into it 147th street, near 81th avenue, not far from one of the largest of New York public schools. S. 80-At 209th street, is a hooch joint that has an unusually sinister appearance. This air may be due to the manner in which the lookout operates.

Frequenters of the place assert that the appearance of a bottle of liquor in the possession of a customer is the signal for a general onslaught of practice of the crime, personal of the place in the hope that an invitation to "have a drink" might be forthcoming.

In 1906 the National Tuberculosis Association adopted a double-barred cross as the emblem of the campaign against tuberculosis in the United States. A committee was appointed in 1912 to standardize the cross. They reported in favor of a double-barred cross with opposite arms, the upper arms being shorter and the lower standard longer than the cross-arms, and the ends of both arms and standards pointed. In 1920, the National Tuberculosis Association secured its registration as a trade mark of the association. This cross has no significance other than being the standard to which rally crushers for better health Kaplan-Marydelle Marriage Miss Kate Marielle, the pretty Holmen entertainer, was married to Jack Kaplan, young business man of this city last Monday.

President Coolidge Hears Of Harlem And Shows Interest In Community (Continued from First Page) My visit to the White House was to pay my respects to the President and to discuss as a newspaper man, if possible, matters affecting the Negro. I had been in the room less than five minutes when Mr. Stemp asked me to sit at its desk. Then for fully 10 minutes without interruption we reviewed the Political status of the Negro. One point on which we were not clear Mr. Stemp telephoned to the State Department for information; regarding another he instructed assistants in the outer office to furnish desired data. Mr. Stemp could not have been more courteous, although we were not at all times in complete agreement. Getting the Negro's view at times seems most difficult. The printed calendar on the Secretary's desk showed that the Cabinet was in session. Evidently the deliberations were more prolonged than land been anticipated, for members of Congress and delegates were almost momentarily putting in appearance to all engagements long overdue. A Secretary to the President is a busy individual, who, to be successful, must be endowed with tact as well as ability. Mr. Slemp possesses these requisites. It was his business to keep everybody in an affable mood while walking-to see the President. There was Speaker Gillette who defeated Senator Walsh for governor from Massachusetts; Senator Edge of New Jersey; a delegation of Republican women from Pennsylvania; a delegation of Negro business and professional men from Chicago and a delegation headed by Dr. George E. Cannon of Jersey-City for which William C. Matthews of Boston was spokesman. With standing-room at a premium Secretary 'Slemp' contrived to make everybody feel at home and in good humor. The Secretary made a hit with the women from Pennsylvania by play with the Secretary and ordering him to salute. He listened patiently to a Congressman who had brought his niece to see President Coolidge talked with me, and answered the telephone intermittently. President Keeps Button Busy With the Cabinet meeting over President Coolidge began to industriously push the button for Mr. Slepup. Then the button does not remain inactive very long, for even the Secretary and Congressmen remain in the President's room little over a minute. And if reports are true, they do all the talking. The delegation, no matter how large, also returns to Secretary Slepup's office in a brief space of time, for its members have shaken hands with the President and their faces are wreathed in smiles. I was accorded the honor of being presented to Mr Coolidge alone. And think I played a little longer than the visitor of the day, or longer than of shaking hands and making my voice the President engaged me in conversation. As it is against the policy of the White House to repeat what the President said during a conversation, all I can say is that Mr Coolidge is very much interested in Harlem, which beats of the largest Negro population in any given area in the world. Of course, I had some of my preconceived potions of President Coolidge shattered I had expected to meet p. grim-visaged personage and to receive a greeting lacking in warmth and eagerness. I had to coat to protect me from the chill. Mr Coolidge smiled on me most ingratiatingly as he shook my hand and throughout our little chat. I had also pictured the President one of extreme neatness but not stylishly dressed. But to my great surprise he was attired in a brown business suit and I had just designed and looked as if he had just stepped out of the proverbial bandbox.

M. C. A. Names Several As Buffalo, N. Y. — The National Council of Young Men's Christian Associations of the United States, at its meeting here, gave recognition to the colored Associations by electing President John Hope of Murehouse College, Atlanta, Ga. to the highest governmental honorary board composed of thirty-three men from the country as surgeon. Dr. Hope, a native of Aligarfa, Ga., is a graduate of Brown University, from which he received a Phi Beta Kappa scholarship rating. For fifteen years he has been president of Morehouse College, which was associated with the war work of the American Y. M. C. A. in France. Dr. W. T Nelson of Cincinnati, O. was made fourth vice-president of the National Council to serve for a year. Dr. Nelson is chairman of the Ninth Street Branch of the V. M. C. A., of Cincinnati and a member of the local board of Dr. R. R. Motson of Tuskegee served as one of the vice-presidents of the National Council to meet its meeting here at Buffalo, and will be a plenier of the Colored Department Committee. He has previously served as a member of the international' Committee of the National Council. Other members of the National Council in attendance at the Buffalo meeting were Dr. J. W. Barco of Union University, Richmond, Va.; Dr. C. H. Marshall, Washington, D. C.; Principal W. R. Valentine, Bordentown, N. J.; Dr. M. W Dogan, Wiley College, Marshall, Tex., and John Diffingham, Shaw University, Atlanta, Ga.; Dr. H. Tolton, senior secretary of the Colored Men's Department, was present as a consulting member. The 1925 budget for service in home and foreign field totals $1,426,120, and the amount is to be allotted to inter-mental work and service to colored men and boys. Thomas Hale, Local Preacher, Is Dead Roanoke, Va.—Rev. Thomas Hale, formerly of High St. Baptist Church, died at his late home in this city after an illness of two days. Rev.

The post office will appreciate your cooperation. allows his visitors to do most of the talking. Perhaps he does. But I believe Secretary Sleiman will bear witness that for soquityacy, the record set up was about fifty-fifty. Perhaps the fact that I was not a job-hunter made a difference. And I think the President had the last word; for to his last remark I bowed asleep while the "three of us smiled breath." may be that the President was in an unusually jovial mood as the result of a good-old fashioned New England turkey dinner the day before, but as it is my policy to judge people as I find them, not from hearsay, I cannot do otherwise than put Mr. Coolidge down as one who can smile blandly and can say "howdy" with a punch to it. "What do you think of the President?" I was asked by W. P. Beazell of The New York World, when I told him of my friend the White House. Mr. Coolidge impressed me with his sincerity and simplicity. I think he is to be a safe and sane President and to what I saw going on about me, he will be his own boss." I replied. I might have added that along with the other members of my race I was hopeful that the Negro would regain some of the ground lost, politically since the administrations of Roosevelt and Taft The Laws House. telephone Karlen 3883 HOTEL PRESS 19-21 WEST 1358th BROADWAY GREAT GREAT GREAT EUROPEAN AND AREHUAN PLAN Really Furnished Rooms, Private Dining Rooms and Amenities at Popular Prices.

The latest occasion tc jprovoke a spirited controversy on this point is the filling of the post of associate superin: kendent made vacant by the election of Dr, William J. O'Shea as superintendent of Behools. The candidate who was supposed to be slated for this post by the politicians, thas been the subject of investigation by the (President of the Board, whose. findings con. pined severe criticisms, that seem to have put‘ this candidate out of the running, In this event 1t would seem that the vacgn- ty riay be filled upon the grounds of fitness hnd, efficiency, which constitute the only, true Basis for dealing wih school matters... If Khe qualities of long and faithful service in Khe school system are to count for anything, & promising candidate for this position is resented in the person of Dr. John P. Con- foy. Asa district superintendent im charge pf the Harlem section, Dr. Conroy has proved hus efficiency by Ins able and sym- pathetic treatment of the problems of the schools of his district. His expert know- Jedge and wide experience in school matters amply qualify him for further promotion. He has worked faithfully and cooperated swith other workers in fusthering the interests pf the schools under his charge, so as to win Bhe‘commendation of both teachers and pa- ents. : It would be a great advance in the matter bf keeping politics out of the school system, for the Board of Education to fill this va- cancy’ on the sole ground ai merit and ¢f- ficiency. a Lev ace THE PRESIDENT RECOMMENDS The Constitution of the United Stat provides that the President shall, from tir © time, give to the Congress informati f the state of the Union, and recommended their consideration such measures as | shall judge necessary and expedient. pursuance of this provision last week, Pre Jent Coolidge sent a message to the last se sion of the sixty-eighth Cungress. in whi eee a eee age ee eo The Constitution of the United States provides that the President shall, from time to time, give to the Congress information of the state of the Union, and recommended to their consideration such measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient.

Honesty in elections: is something: that can never be praught about, so long as the South is permitted to disfranchise. by force or tirckery a large pact of its population. To extend the laws governing the choice of members of the Congress would necessitate the regulation by the Federal government of such elections in every State. Appropri- ate representation of the respective parties at-the ballot box and equality of represen- tation on the various régistration boards could never be established without the force of Federal authority. It is rather singular that the last effort o fthis kind was fathered by the late Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, who, whatever his faults, did not lack po- litical courage. There was not ‘enough of that quality among the Republicans in Con- gress at that time to pass his bill. However, times have changed: since the Lodge Federal Elections bill was defeated ‘through the bugaboo of Negro domtination, ‘raised through such papers as the New York Sun, then edited’ by the late Charles A. Dana. The political weakress of the South was shown by its isolation in the last elec- ion, when its clectoral votes were cast fot Mr. Davis for lack of any other resért, Mr. Coolidge, with a plurality of the popular vote of nearly seven millions, is in a posi- tion to itisist that honesy in national elec- tions should be enforced in the South, as well as in other sections of the country. At all events, we consider this the most significant recommendation in his message. FINANCIAL PERIL AVERTED | The various reports that have been cur- rent as to’ the financial troubles that have threatened the security of the Standard Life Insurance Company of Atlanta, Ga., have been set at rest By the simple story of those troubles and thé manneér'in which they have been settled. This company is one of the largest and most successful of those con- ducted by Negroes for the insuring of Negro lives. Its solveney has been attested by ‘the Insurance Commissioner of Georgia. The troubles that threatened its control were due to the fact that a large block of its capital stock, held by a securities com- pany was pledged as security for a loan. If this collateral was foreclosed in payment of the loan, the control of the company was liable to pass into other hands, which might Prove unfriendly and change its status as a race institution. The securities company was not able to pay ths loan, which had been ‘contracted to aid some of the sabsidiary ‘enterprise promoted by Heman E. Perry, ‘president of the company. | In this emergency zn appeal for aid wis ‘made to Mr. Julius Rosenwald. Through [the intervention of Dr .Moton, an arrange- ment was made to take up the loan and thus retain the control of the company in the hiands of the race and its friends. The dan- ger that the control might pass to unfriendly hands, for the purpose of exploitation of its policyholders and their resources, wds thus averted. The outlook is that the loath wall be repaid within a reasonable time, wihout friction or embarrassment. The dis- position of the managers of the company to embarkuin extraneous lines of business has been curbed and the safe policy of write img msurance and placing the funds of the company in sound investments will be pur- sued under sound control This happy solution of the difficulties that threatened the future progress of the com- pany has been accomphshed through the appeal to Dr. Moton and the confidence im- posed in his judgment by Mr. Rosenwald, who arranged for the taking up of the loan. The danger of undue expansion of a per- fcetly safe and sound enterprise beyond the limits of its legitimate business were never ‘hetter illustrated than in this case. Only the intervention o-fsuch powerful friends as Messrs Peabody, Kelsey, Austin and Ro- senwald, saved the possibility af disaster to ‘thin Uneven pancera. « NON-EXISTENT MILLIONAIRES An inquisitsve correspondent of an out-c wit race paper, ater examining the boi the Thied District of the Internal Rever rvice im New York, announced the m rounding fact (to him) that there ar y colored Harlem mulhonaires OF cou did not want to spoil a good story, | 1¢ Age dlisertdited the newspaper rep wre fermvrenee this eczema “aoc ihc detescouat sad hx ‘Np inquisitive correspondent of an out-out- town race paper, ater examining the books of the Thied District of the Internal Revenue Service m New York, announced the most astounding fact (to him) that there aren't any colored Harlem autkonaires Of course we did not want to spoil a good story, but The Age discredited the newspaper report Concernmg the colured mlhanaires of Har. lem. a year or imore ago, and showed that the storieg-oftaciat wealth were largely over- Sete PAY. 20S Tpae& eh Vw | Not, aatisfied with pubjishing ‘the aimougt pot.

The government had denied the right of the ‘apers to publish “auch lists, although per- mittiig publicity to the extent of allowing examination.” * * ‘The fact is that the amount of tax ‘paid by an individual is not always a safe in- ‘ex to the real amount of his income. Put: ting aside the question of false returns as to earnings, there are various legal deductions anid exemptions, which may be taken advan: tage of so as to largely reduce the tax to be paid+on even an ‘income ‘of Jarge figures. Beside the personal exemption of $1,000 for a single person and $2,500 for a married couple, plus $400 for each dependent, there are vasious other “deductions allowed for taxes and interest, losses by fire, storm, etc. bad debts, contributions or gifts for certain purposes. Compensation for services re- ceived from a State or city, proceeds: of life insurance policies. gifts, interest received upon State or municipal bonds and Liberty bonds to a certain amount, and other items are exempt from the Federal tax. It will thus be seen that by shewd invest- ments the possessor of a large amount of capital may escape taxation, if he puts his money in tax exempt securities, The man in business may also figure the expenses of carrying on his business, with certain allow- ances for depreciation of property and ma- chinery. On the other hand, the impecu- nious promoter, anxious to bolster up his ¢redit, may pay a tax entirely out of pro- ‘portion to his real inconie. Figures may not lie, but they can often be manipulated so as to convey false impressions. A SOUTH AMERICAN DICTATOR The announcement of the death of ex- President Cipriano Castro, of Venezuela which took place at San Juan, Porto Rico last Saturday, recalled attention to one of the last survivors of the former breed of South American dictators. During the term that he dominated the fortunes of Vene- zuela, as-leadér of "successful revalytion, provisional president’ and constitutional president, but always dictator, he managed ‘to fill a large space in attracting worldwide attention. He was one of the few individ- uals who defied Pesident Roosevelt-and got away with it. Castro was born in the mountain regions of the Andes, near the Colombian boundary. He was said to he partly of Indian and part. ly of Negro blood, to which his swarthy com- plexion was attributed. His early years were passed as a muleteer, after which he became interested in cattle raising. He was select- ed by his fellow muteteers and cattle raisers to represent them in Congress and duly went to Caracas, the capital. Here he attended the sessions of the national legislature, ab- sorbed motions of government an_dhis ambi- tion became aroused. Returning to his moun- tain home, he found much dissatisfaction over the taxes and soon headed a revolution, which grew in numbers as it proceeded to- ward the capital. President Andrade fled from the capital and Castro entered Caracas and proclaimed himself dictator. He possessed dogged cofrage and fative ability, but his vision was limited to the borders of Ins own coun try, In his dealings with other nations he was uncompromising and in course af time became embroiled with several European countries, as well as the United States. His troubles with this country were largely due to, the asphalt concessions and the warring American interests, When Castro finally settled the matter by having the Venezuc- lan courts declare the concessions {nifeited by failure to carry out the contracts, this| government was appealed to, Despite the intimation that hus action in dealing with, the American claimants would he congidered unfriendly, Castro stuck to his course. Cel- ebrated international lawyers affirmed that his aetion in this case was correct. At all events the Roosevelt administration did not purstte the matter any further. During Castro's regime, so far as internal affairs were concerned, his presidential de- ctee. during the recess of the congress, had the force of law, He dealt with every ques- tion that arose, in eyery part of his country, If th eroof of the church sprung a leak in Valencia, he was appealed to for a new roof, If the manufacture of aguardiente, a govern- ment monopoly, exceeded the demands of the market, he ordered ten thousand kegs >r so emptied in the river. If a foreigner, rendered himself abnoxiony by criticising ie government, a. presidential decree en-, forced his expulsion from the country Despite the harsh entersms written of astra hy same Aynérican nen spapée writ ts, including the late Julus Chambers, for ris alleged: crypt’ ttevtment of” those’ caught Comments By The Age Editors - Qn Sayings of Other Editors The Age Readers’ Forum conspiring-against him, he\phow. ed, another. dide to the.

Simmons preached in the athermance of our pastor Rev. Brown. In the morning Rev. Simmons preached from the text; the young man saith unto him, all these things have I kept from my youth unto you. Dr. Matheus '1920 Rev. Simmons, a minister, the clause of that verse. What lack I yet? His sutbect was "Walking with Jesus." At 2 p. m., the Sunday school was opened by the superintendent, Rev. William H. Hoggans. At the close of the lesson study, Frank Gossett and Cornelia 'Hogans' gave a short review of the lesson. At 4 p.m., the Literary Society convened. The program was under the auspices of Mrs. Mentor of Brooklyn, who brought to us a very splendid program. It was as follows: Solo, Mr. Linsey; solo, Mrs. G. Berry, accompanied by Miss Scott; address, Rev. Simmons; Spiritual, Mrs. H. Bell; prayer, A. Potter. The evening service was well attended. Rev. Simmons preached from the text: "Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? then may ye also do good, that are accustomed to do evil!" Jeremiah 13:23. Rev. Simmons preached from the latter clause of this verse. "That are accustomed to do evil." His subject was "Bad habits and how they are formed." The dinner was served during the day by the members of the Energetic Circle, and $4.25 was given to the church. Rush Memorial Church At 11 o'clock, last Sunday morning, Dr. Oliver, the pastor delivered a powerful and inspiring sermon on "Keeping The Faith" in which he proved to the audience that the good which is wrought by keeping the faith is unsurpassable. At three o'clock the celebration of the Holy Eucharist was observed. The sermon at this hour was delivered by Rev. Samuel Scott of Lafayette, Iowa, who takes free lunch at 4:32. "When thou passest through the waters, I will be wigh thee, and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee; when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame knits upon thee." The preacher chose God, he promised to lead his people." The services at his hour were uplifting. There seemed to have been a revival of the old time religion. Many of the members who have been on the sick list were permitted to attend and some who had left the church returned and all expressed themselves as being related to the church, which was located in Rust-Church. The Rev Scott led the entire congregation out in deep waters and mentioned many of the old prophets as well the present day Christians to prove that the words of the text are true. Baptism and reception of members were also taken care of at this service. Dr-Oliver offered a prayer for a renewed spirit within all the members of the parish, and asked the blessing of those present and those absent on this last communion day in the old year. In the evening, the pupil was filled by one missionaries to Africa. Rev W. G. Francis. His sermon was based on the subject: "A new vision for a new task." Text: "And He said I beseech thee, she mew thy glory." The speaker through much light on the thing which is most needed is this particular task, to look for the good and then do good. God's work must be carried on, and we must see the vision and then perform the task. It will be necessary to go to God in secret prayer, sometimes, in order to get the grace to carry out this will, and faith to see this manifestations. The work at Rush is moving on nicely. Although the struggle has been a long and hard one, Dr. Oliver, with the assistance of his team, has them to victory. The class meetings and prayer meetings are spiritually alive and all departments show a marked improvement over last year. A cordial invitation is extended to all to come and worship with us. St. Paul Baptist Church The "Works of Paul" were told of by the Rev H. Arthur Boker in his sermon at the morning service. This text was explained logically. Sunday school was convened at the usual hour by the superintendent, Charles-E. B. Roberts. The school is preparing for its Christmas exercise. The Lady Ushers' Club heard a sermon preached by Rev W. A. Brown for benefit of the winter rally. The evening sermon was preached by the pastor, Rev H. Arthur Booker, on "The Character of the Church." The winter rally was raised Nazarene Cong. Church. Dr. Henry Hugh Proctor filled his pulpit at both services Sunday, speaking at the morning hour on "Building a Life around the cross," and evening time on "The Body of Christ," evening time on "The Summon series on the Summon side of the Master." Among recent visitors were: Arthur G. Morgan, Manhattan, J. R. Johnson, Brooklyn, Arthur Jackson, Silicon South street, N. A. Mitchell Manhattan, Rev H. D. White, Cornwall N. Y. Dr. Proctor spoke in Buffalo before the Lloyd Memorial Congregational Church, the Congregational Club of Greater Buffalo and the Niwau Club.

The Nassagere choir will be assisted by Charles Waters as solist. Silicon Presbyterian Church A large congregation at the morning morning worship listened attentively to Rev George Shippen, Stark pastor, as he took this text from Zach Jaff subject: "The Fathers, Where are They?" In his formon the pastor brought out that the church had memberships, first the membership composed of those who have labored in the past and have gone to their rest and whose presence is still with us in the spirit; second, the visible membership of the present, whose heritage is the faith, still living, of the fathers of the past; third, the faith of our fathers to suffer and deny their religious beliefs? We cannot see through our own vision the wondrous manifestations of Gods love toward us. It is only by believing through faith that we are able to see these manifestations and blessings. Man's increased knowledge and learnin- makes stronger his belief in the power of God the greatest manifestation of God's love toward us for by the connecting of wires, air waves from distant places are transmitted, and cheer is brought to the sick in hospitals, the shut-ins in homes and to the blind. The faith of the fathers has kept the Church indestructible; kingdom and empires with their rules in mind but the Church still stands. This the reason the question the progress of the Church, faith and loyalty of the Fathers of the Past still remain the heritage of the Church today. The Holy Sacrament ST.

All department and the church are working to make the very best use and put to good account the remaining days of the closing year. If it is to be hoped that when the year closes much can be stewardship of each department, the stewardship of the church hopes to put over its grant of religious education and educational activities throughout the organization, life of the church.

They are wondering just how much acting Kid Norfolk did and how much real fighting. The reason for their skpticism is that Tom Gibbons, who is an excellent boxer of the defensive type, has never been known as a hard hitter and it has been years since he knocked out a man, before the bout on Tuesday night. Then, too, Kid Norfolk, who had quite a reputation for toughness, has been knocked out only once before—when he fought Harry Wills—and that tipe Norfolk frankly admitted to friends that he was no match for the Brown Panther and that he practically quit Once before the "Keed" has been accused by the press of not doing his best in a fight against Harry Greb, now middleweight champion. But just before the fight on Tuesday the news went the rounds that Kid Norfolk and his manager, Leo P Flynn, had bet $25,000 that he would win by a knockout. The Harlem fans swallowed the tip and bet their surplus funds on the colored boxer. The colored press was not recognized by the management of the show, the excuse being made that it was a benefit and that everyone was expected to purchase tickets, but according to the daily press Gibbons had the host of the fifth all the way, and Referee Tommy Sherdin stopped the fray in the sixth round after the colored fighter had been knocked down and could not defend himself. The end of the bout is described by Hype Igoe of The New York World as follows: "Tom rashed his man at the opening of the sixth round, belting the Negro's body as a lunatic would a bass drum. Every blow counted and gradually Norfolk began to wilt. Lefts, lefts, lefts—some short, some rapier-like in their cruel effectiveness—broke through Norfolk's defense. That defense, simply had to come down to protect his body. Fatal move. The instant Gibbons saw the gloved hands go down to protect the body, he shot a short right hook to Norfolk's jaw. "Tom's ann was a bit off, but the blow landed behind the grinning Negro's ear and it turned him half aroused away from Gibbons. Norfolk toterted forward half bent over like an old man going down a hill. The blow behind the ear had done its work. He pitched forward flat on his face. He then screamed to his hands and knees, then up. Then the "Keel" veered around to face the gentleman from St Paul. Tom took his time as Norfolk lunged forward blindly, hopelessly. The colored fighter tried to put, up his guard, but tottered back along the ropes and went down on his haunches without being hit. That was the end. Even before he fell the referee had stopped the bout." Tiger Flowers of Atlanta, Ga., enhanced his already great reputation as a fighter by defeating Johnny Wilton of Boston, former middleweight champion, in the sem-final bout. The bout was stopped after two minutes and fifty-five seconds of the third round after Wilson had demonstrated that he was no match for his colored opponent and was taking severe punishment. When Flowers entered the ring wearing a black and purple robe with a huge tiger worked on the back he got a great hand from the gallery. When he left the ring the deafening applause indicated that both white and colored fans now consider him the leading middleweight of the country. The gross receipts of the show totalled $107,599. The fighters' share was $52,6571. Of this sum Norfolk is said to have received $10,000 and Flowers $5,000. EASTERN BASEBALL MEN JOURNEY TO CHICAGO FOR JOINT MEETING WITH WESTERN LEAGUE OFFICIALS Colored Baseball Magnates Sign National Agreement at Chicago That the Commissioners of the Eastern Colored League are intent upon legislating for the future of baseball is evidenced by the fact that the entire body journeyed to Chicago to hold their annual meeting a good centrifug for the best interest of baseball and its future development.

The agreement calls for the formation of a championship permanent series at the end of each season, but that the club should be eligible to compete in this series unless that club had played forty or more league games during the season. The rules governing the championship series are the same as adopted at the point meeting in New York on September 8. The second point of the agreement limits the Eastern League to the territory from the Atlantic Ocean to the western boundary of New York State and Pennsylvania. In territorial boundary of the National Negro League includes all the states west of New York and Pennsylvania. A list of players on each club in the season of 1924 was submitted, and it was agreed that a player who has played with one club in a season or part of a season shall not be permitted to play with other clubs or other league during the season immediately following without a proper clear from the club last ambiguous to you call a player minor contract to play with a club in other league all used to play with a club in other league with a minor claiming to be a club from his own club and a waiver from all the clubs in the league of which he is a member.

Va.-The West Virginia Colegiafe Institute's football eleven ended a successful season Saturday, December 6 on Laidley Field by disposing of the heavy A, and T. College gridiron machine. When Turner, Institute quarterback, grabbed a pass from Cardwell and skirted across 40 yards of turf for a touchdown and later booted a pretty 15-yard field goal he amassed a point total sufficient to down the visitors by a 107 count. Gomes. As Surprise Turner's first effort came just as the first half, was, about to close and it was a surprising break in the contest. The powerful North Carolina team had pushed Institute down to her own ten-yard line in the first quarter and had outplayed the West Virginia from the start of the contest. With the ball near mid-field in Institute's possession and but a minute remaining before the close of the half Turned called for a series of passes. Three attempts at the air game failed, the leaves were wide of the mark and everything looked like the effort would prove futile. Then without warning Turner made a pretty catch of a Cardwell toss and was off. The ball had traveled some 12 yards through the air and there was about 30 yards separating Turner from the goal line. He negotiated the distance through a flock of North Carolina tacklers and a moment later had gilded the extra punt by a drop kick. The husky Carolina eleven tied the score soon after the third period commenced. Coleman, the outstanding star of the visiting eleven got a short kick from "Turner who was forced to boot against a strong wind. There was no one near the big hallback for the kick was poorly covered by Institute's ends and Coleman raced from mid-field to Institute's 14-yard mark before he was pulled down. Lowery Is Alert Coleman and Lane made a first down on the three-gard line in three plays and Wilson went over the lines and have those qualities of sincerity, illusion and dignity that have made the German Passion plays famous throughout the world and have attracted thousands from distant countries. When confronted by the need of money with which to continue the presentation of their plays, those in charge decided to picture it and engaged the services of one Europe's more prominent motion picture directors, Dmitri Buehowetski to supervise the production Buchowetski who is in American and made "Men," a photo-play in which Pola Negre starred, and to have done notable work in filming the performance. He was however little more than a technical guide move to the familiarity of the plays with their dintes through repeated representations of the work. The result of these point efforts is said, is a film so impressive that it compels the admiration of all who see it.

Coleman booted the extra point tying the score. Alertness on the part of Lowery, an Institute backfield mark, gave Turner her chance to boot a field goal and give the West Virginians a winning margin of three points. It was just as the third period closed that Hell tossed a pass to Coleman. The throw was low and the receiver fell in trying to reach the ball. He just hit it with one hand and again tipped it in an effort to complete the pass, pushing it just high enough from the ground to allow Lowery to race in and scoop it up before it hit the turf. The little halfback was off like a flash behind a wonderful wall of interference which formed with lightning speed and he covered 60 yards or so before he was tackled on the A. and T. 12-yard mark. Cardwell and Branch failed to make any appreciable yardage through the line and Turner dropped back and sent the ball between the cross bars. Turner got another attempt at a drop kick in the final quarter but his effort failed. Institute was in a position to push across another touchdown when the final whistle ended the game. Stevens had intercepted a North Carolina pass just two yards from the goal but the whistle blew before the players could line-up. Turner, Cardwell and Lowery were the first stars in the backfield while Captain John Hughes and Ward did good work in the line. The North Carolinians presented a great backfield combination in Coleman, J Lane, Wilson and Bell with the first named a shade the best of the quartet Cunningham, Patter son and Cole were outstanding line stars.

White National Ethiopian Art Theatre Benefit Recital Is Interesting was a splendid audience that assembled at Renaissance Casino on Sunday afternoon, December 7, for the benefit recital of the National Ethiopian Art Theatre Inc. and it was a pretentious program which had been arranged for the occasion by Anne Wolter, general director. The outstanding feature of the afternoon was the enthusiastic reception given the project by the folks assembled, and they showed appreciation and enjoyment of the various numbers. Members of the Theatre and Art School furnished the major portion of the program, but Mrs. Wolter had invited as assisting guest artists several of the race's most distinguished figures in music and the theatre.

Her offering included "My jerusalem mimil from Jerusalem" "The Bonette," and two songs by Roger Quillen, the fine young English composer "Fuscia Tree" and Loves Philosophy." Mrs. Zackery has won, for herself a place in the four ranks of American singers, without regard to race, and on this occasion we gave to her hearers a delightful example of her marvelous art and wonder- The accompanist for Mrs. Zackery was that charming little pianist, Miss Lyda Mason, who previously had given a group of piano numbers. Miss Maso a modest and unassuming as she is talented played "To a toy soldier" by Werner, "Lento" by Cyril Scott, and "Japanese Bude" by Poldini. She was given a most cordial hearing and appreciation. Other artists assisting were Edward H. Margetson, a brilliant young composer and Lorenzo F. Dyer, organist-choirmaster of Mr. Olivet Baptist Church, who served as accompanists for several of the numbers rendered by pupils of the school, and the California Synagogators, who rendered three numbers to the uncased enjoyment of their auditors.

Julius Bledsoe, Baritone, Sings Fine Program at the Town Hall A, representative audience gathered at Tennys Hall on Saturday afternoon, December 6 at 3 o'clock, to hear a program sung by Julius Bledsoe, tenor. His offerings included compositions, by Handel, Billy Purcell, Schubert, Brahms, Dupré, and arrangements of songs from the Harecourt with a final group of modern English songs by Ebik and Lopespe and Negro Spirituals arranged by Gaul and Polak. Additional numbers offered as encores included "An Chloe" by Mozart; "A las montañas fire"; another Peruvian song (this one in Spanish); "None but the lonely heart" by Tschaskowli; "They led my Lord away" a Negro Spiritual arranged by Polak; and "Fleeting" by Elgar. The singer essayed numbers in German and French with splendid success. He has developed case of utterance and purity of intonation, and these qualities contributed much to the acclaim which greeted his Brahms number in the first printed language and the two Peruvian songs in French. Mr. Biddoe is one of the youngest of the Negro singers now making a bid for recognition on his artistic attainment, and he has already won the attentive record or the musical world. In his recital last Saturday he reasserted his claim in this particular and more firmly established his right to serious consideration and admittance. He has developed tone quality, breadth and depth of tone coloring, and an accent and definite breath control. His phrasings were delightful, and this was especially evident in his first and second numbers, the aria, "Graze Jiddo" Hande' and Bach's air from "Phoebus and Pan"—"Zu tange, zu sprunger" a similar character, and equally pleasing, was the recitative and aria (in the Conpurer's song, "We twice ten hundred deities" from "The In- given by Purcell Following this, the audience insisted so upon an en- terprise the singer complied with the Mozart number ange du Harners' by Schubert.

All were given with exquisite delicacy, co- vivacious spirit, and the audience was not satisfied until another song and a Tschaikowsky number was given. final group was made up of four songs originally, but three of these repeated, "I do not sing your name" by Polak (first time); "Song of by LaForge, and a Negro Spiritual, "Keep a mchin along," arranged The regular program was ended with "Go down, Moses."

There was a distinct departure from virtual atmosphere, the accompaniments ranging almost into the art song sation. Instead of the deep, rigorous chords which add so much of and power without detracting, there were splashing arpeggios and glitter- isms that took one's thought away from the beauty of the song itself a little use of the themes, contrapuntally or otherwise, which would estimated and brought out the essence of the Spiritual.

NEEDS $1,271 TO FINISH IT'S BUDGET QUOTA Hope Needed Amount Will Be Forthcoming Before First of Year A fine spirit of interest and co-operation has existed throughout the entire Branch during the past few weeks as we have all worked during the annual Budget Campaign. Raising money is never an easy task but it has its compensations when it is being raised for a good purpose, and every year it is splendid for members of departments which must, for e ciency, be conducted more or less independently, to put their shoulders to the wheel for a common cause. It does create a fellowship of purpose that lasts over into the rest of the year. The campaign workers went out for $6,000. So far $4,729.21 of this amount has been raised, and it is hoped that by the first of the year the goal will be reached. This branch has budget differences of about $25,000, and it is earnestly hoped that the citizens of this community will give at least $6,000 of this. We have received news from Philip Smith, formerly of the Community Service in New York, of his mother's death in New Orleans. We are grateful to C. W Bronson of St Nicholas avenue, and to Mia Ina Reid of 228 Wear 140th street, for gifts of books to the Branch We are interested in securing a piano for a young girl who has promise of being a good musician and will be glad to give information to any person who is willing to give or loan to her. Among the recent visitors to the Branch was N B Young, president of Lincoln University in Jefferson 'City, Salem Church Lyceum On Thursday evening, December 4, 1924, the Thursday evening lycum of Salem Church had its initial inaugural. The program was presented by Miss K. Roberta Bostley, president of the Students' Board. The program was as follows: Greenwich Village Trio, Dante Fiorillo, cellist; Arthur Dages, violinist, assisted by Harold Jackman; piano selections, Miss Beatrice Johnson; violin selection, Miss Louise Hughes; vocal selections, Miss Malvina Edness and Willie Mayer. Dr. F. P. Robbers was the speaker on Thursday evening, December 11. The programs will continue throughout the winter. By JAMES H. HOGANS The fact that Mr Coolidge, our Chief Executive, should be the first one to put in practice a policy which he recommended, the spending of the government's money economically by travelling from Washington to Chicago and back in a regular Pullman compartment car, attached to a regular train, instead of chartering a private car and train for the trip, is an indication of the importance of New England republican principles which form the underlying foundation of his entire character. This act of his, which broke a Presidential custom of long standing, has aroused nation wide comment and has been received with many differences of opinion by the citizens of the country, especially, those of the newspaper world. One of our influential dialects for instance, in its editorial pronouncement on the innovation, seemed to think that Mr. Coolidge incurred an unnecessary risk by travelling as he did. It opened that a life to precious should not be exposed to the risks of ordinary travel, that a special train should have been the means of transportation by which he journeyed because such a train has the right of way, and when the President is on board the railroad companies keep the danger of accident down to the irreducible minimum. Another daily averver that the preservation of the President's health and strength is in the long run the best kind of economy, and that, therefore, Mr. Coolidge should have travelled in a private car as it is a more comfortable mode of transportation than a regular Pullman. Now what in order to touch the subject of all the miscellany which is present in both these newspaper comments.

HERMAN'S INN—Miss Georgia Kelly, who ranks as one of the leading entertainers of the East has entered the Phonograph Recording profession Recently at the Okeh firmation of the old rule that no matter how profoundly versed one may be in his own line of business when it comes to the other fellow's he is liable to be in error when attempting to say how it should be done In the first statement quoted, regarding the risk the President ran by not traveling on a special train so as to minimize the danger of accident, did the writer for one moment think that the officials over whose road the President was journeying were unaware that a special train was on a given day? and that did not appreciate the responsibility for his safety and take precautions accordingly simply because he happened not to be traveling on a special train? That appears to have been the writer's idea when he mentioned the fact that a special train would have been the better way for the President to travel. Had Mr. Coolidge elected to make his trip in a day coach instead of a Pullman, every safeguard possible would have been applied to the situation by the railroad company transporting him without the least hesitation. Therefore as far as safety is concerned a private car for the President, or any other person for that matter, is not an absolute necessity. Railroads do not relish wrecks, even to their freight trains The other comment about a private car being more healthy and comfortable than an ordinary Pullman may be to a certain extent, be trump but the President did not make the trip in an ordinary Pullman. He and his party occupied a compartment car. This type of car is built on lines similar to that of a private car, the only noticeable difference between the two types being that the compartment car has more sleeping rooms, and the private car has a kitchen and dining room attached, which compartment cars do not have. As to which is the healthier and more comfortable of the two or the purposes of a long trip in gateries in which the choice must be guided by personal inclination and not by actual advantages. It is not necessary to attempt a comparison of the service that is rendered passengers on either one of these types of Pullman cars, as there is none possible. The employees who operate these cars are the picked men of the company. As we view it our 'client' did not take any undue risk was not less comfortable, and certainly received the best of service during this democratic trip. It is not the 'client' that saved the government on the journey that is likely to be the reason to those average working men, but his practice of practicing what he preaches is a known with most advocates of economy especially governmental ones. The length of the radiated wave depends upon may features of design, construction and location of the antenna. Among the specific factors controlling and affecting the wave-length may be mentioned: vertical and horizontal dimensions of antenna, the construction and type of the aerial length and resistance of the lead-in wire, length and resistance of the ground wire, number and spacing of the wires in the aerial, the neatness of absorbing mediums and the insulation of the conductors. Simple devices are now on the measuring the wave-lengths by their use. The natural wave length of an attention may be determined. The natural wave-length of a vertical of flat top antenna may be roughly calculated, as follows: Add the height of the antenna to its length. Multiply the sum by 4,2, and divide the product by 3, 3, and the result will be the natural wave length expressed in meters. Changing the Wave-Length The natural wave-length of an antenna may be reduced by connecting a condenser in series with the antenna. When thins is done, the condenser is usually connected between the set and the ground. Tuning over a limited range of wave length may be obtained by using a variable condenser. In general, the smaller the capacity, the shorter is the wave-length. Studio Miss Kelly made a test record of Ollie Moores's song, "Some of These Mornings."

DEAREST OF ALL GIRLS: I trust everyone had a delightful Thanksgiving. In the morning I attended the union Thanksgiving service in. Orange and then—well I think you can guess the rest. This is another of my sermons. My subject is. Mark 11:24—What things soever ye desire when ye pray belive that ye receive them and ye shall have them." After nineteen hundred years we find the Christian sick, poor, unhappy, and prayers unanswered. Is there hope? Yes there is, right in this world. Prayer does not consist in petition and imploring God to do this or that but simply believing that you have already received. I can hear you say, you claimed you prayed earnestly a year ago, "Pit-a-Pat". Why did God take your mother unto Himself? I have wondered over this many a time and have to come to the conclusion that God is the same; surely the fault lies with me. When my physician gave me little hope for my mother I began to lose faith. When I prayer I did not pray with the belief that God had already restored her to perfect health. I could not see her well and strong. My mind continually dwelt on this, "Mildred, there is little hope," brother than the words of the Great Physician—"believe that ye receive them and ye shall have them". I did not apply - the law thereby death came. Ignorance of the law is no excuse. Let our minds wander back to the time when Jesus performed a miracle at the tomb of Lazarus. The first thing He did was to pray a prayer of thanksgiving. "Father I thank Thee that Thou hast heard Me. And I knew that Thou hearest Me always." There was no agonizing or beseeching—just simply believing that the Father had already restored Lazarus to life. The result was that when the Master spoke the living Mrs Chas. P Ford (nee Lillian Day) of Third street, Washington, D. C. is here on an extended visit to her parents, Prof and Mrs. J. S. Williams, Ashe street. Her many friends and acquaintances are glad to see her at her former home once more. The members of the Q. D. K. Club which is composed of some of the ladies connected with the city schools, with their male escorts, met at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Willie L. Woods, East Gaston street, Friday night and drove dull care away by trapping the fantastic toe and whilst playing A toothsome repast was served at the close after which the guests retired with a feeling that the evening was well and pleasantly spent. Miss Thelma, the daughter of Dr. and Mrs Frank W McNair, 436 East Washington street, was hostess to about sixty members of her class, the 8th grade, on Thanksgiving Day. The occasion was quite enjoyable Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minn. Minneapolis, Minn.—St. Paul and Minneapolis join the other cities in commending the President in his message to Congress this year. The part pennning to us as a part of this country. His stand which takes for justice and a square deal to all regardless of race, color or previous conditions should have the attention and consideration of all people. The Age is getting the attention of our people and we trust in the near future to have it in the homes of our people in the Twin Cities. Mrs. Ella A Jackson, formerly of 281 Rice and Summit avenue, but now of 560 Rondo street, St Paul, is an accomplished saleslady. She manages the only Good Will Store for colored and whites in St Paul. The company which she serves seems to be satisfied with her management. The churches of the two cities are preparing on a broad scale to celebrate Christmas as never before. Several new features will be added to the programs. The Social Club of Minneapolis met at the home of the secretary, Mrs Uptergrove on Stephens street, Thursday evening and had an excellent program rendered Several papers were read. The members were enthusiastic over President Coolidge's message, especially the part applying to us as a race. Comments were made upon it by prominent ladies of the club. The club has reaffirmed its faith and allegiance to the Republican party and its confidence in the Coolidge administration. Let us all keep an eye upon the movements of this administration for the next four years. They are now in power to do us good or harm as they use their power word, "Lazrus come forth," this dead man did come to life, and dwelt with his relatives and friends once more. "What things soever ye desire when ye pray believe that ye receive them." Have one specific desire in mind to seek a quiet and serene place of communion with God, and pour out to Him the desire of your heart. Tell Him just what you want and remain in prayer for a considerable time. Get a mental image of some thing you want, if it is a home, automobile or a higher education. Get that picture of your desire so fixed in your mind until after awhile you will find yourself in possession of these things (believing that ye shall receive them). When you reach this goal ye shall have them. Holding your mind to a fixation of attention you isolate the idea and produce mental picture on the sub-conscious mind and the sub-conscious produces results in the physical world. It is not maybe you will have, them, no doubt is implied, but a strong, emphatic statement. Ye shall have them. Christianity has not failed, for Christianity is Christ, and Christ is God. Surely all my sisters would love to be well, happy and successful. Let us happy succession. Let us apply this prayer of faith to our living and with a perfect understanding we shall overcome, and everything we desire will be granted unto us, on his earth now. What we will have in heaven is not concerning us. Jesus has gone to prepare, that place for us. But we are concerned about the harmonious conditions of this earth. In conclusions I will say: "What things soever ye desire when ye pray believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them. FREE FREE FREE Eight-Piece Manicure Set yours for selling Liquid Perfume.

When a complaint is made, an investigator is sent out to find out, if possible, whether the conditions are as stated by the complaint. Many of the white investigators find it almost impossible to get information from colored people so that Mrs. Frazer and the other probation officers have to do a considerable amount of investigation along with their other duties. Some of this kind of work could be eliminated, she says, if an investigator who shows the proper credentials from the court would be given the information he desires; whether he be white or colored. This information is of vital importance to the judge in making an important decision. Frazer has been connected with the family Relations.
