Attempted Burglary Lands Peter Lincoln In Lockup
Peter Lincoln, 260 West 129th street tried to follow the example set by handouts of other races, but was halted Saturday night by shots fired over his head by Patrolman Tom Lacey of the 16th Presidential station of West 135th street. Lincoln is alleged to have attempted to burglary the apartment of Mrs Evelyn Huges, 9] West 136th street, who is reported to have been awakened by an electric flash light illuminating her bed room. She screamed. Lincoln fired Officer Lacey came to her rescue and a chase over the houseets brought tenements to the roof to see if old St. Nick was visiting ahead of time
Take Cans Off Street!
The Captain of Police, commanding the 16th Precinct, asks that all householders in Harlem take in all ash cans and receptacles off the street. Keep them inside during the Holiday Season—ESPECIALY ON NEW YEAR'S EVE!
He had been sitting in the dining room for some time, waiting with patience.
Finally the man's patience seemed to be exhausted, or he called to his wife, his voice sounding rather rough:
"Mary! I'm waiting for my breakfast."
He must have thought Mary was in the kitchen, for he turned his head and looked in that direction, and then listened for her response.
But the answer came not from the kitchen but from a front room in the apartment.
"There isn't any breakfast," was what he heard.
The words were simple and expressive, and so plainly spoken there was no possibility of being misunderstood. But the nnn was credulous.
"No breakfast" he exclaimed. Then his curiosity overcame discretion.
Why is there no breakfast?" he queried and followed his question by getting up and going to the room from whence his wife's voice had sounded.
She was seated at a table, and from appearance might have been engaged in writing a "best seller," or giving birth to a new poem, or writing a letter to the editor, or any of a half dozen different activities indicating a literary pursuit. This notion was intensified by the concentration with which she was applying herself to the task, and by the room which married her love, increasing the depth of her thought.
But it was no "best seller", or wonderful poem, or anything of the sort. She raised her head on the entrance of her husband, and when he again asked his last question, "Why is there no breakfast?" she replied: "Because there is no money. The numbers' colector has just been here and I've got a 'gig' that's bound to own, so I gave him all the money I had to play that number, and now if you want any breakfast you had better get out and find some for your own, and anything until after. I find out whether my number has to be out or not." and she started again writing down a string of numbers.
What could the poor fellow do? He was sore, all right, but he remembered that he had introduced the numbers' game to his wife, and now she was a confirmed addict. He had given it up himself, but she was worse. He had been, and nothing was needed could do or say to stop her. So when he realized that there really would be no breakfast, because she had invested his last dollar (and pay day was two days away) on her 'gig', he swallowed hard and turned away to see if there might not be a forgotten egg or a slice of bacon in the kitchen somewhere.
One of the habitus of a torsional establishment on West 135th street wasuring his views on the "numbers" game
"I used to play the numbers," he said, "but I quit. I wished it so that every many connected with the game could be put in jail. They are just running the people. Poor men and women, without doctored clothes and needing substantial food, are using money needed for actual neces-sites trying to win under the 640 to one odds offered by the backers of the number game. But that has a chance for every one that makes a stroke, hundreds do not get a look in. Another man came in about this time, with a mountain expression on his face. "Well, the number was 130 yesterday, said the newcomer, "but it didn't mean anything to me, I had a lot but I didn't have that." "Yes," said the first speaker, "you usually have it when it doesn't come. As for me, I see quit, made my last play, no more will I be the snucker contributing to the bank account of these Jews, Cubans, and others who are riding around in their big powerful cars, living in fine houses, and us-

Police Raid Numbers' Bankers and Aids On Monday-Nine Arrests Policy Slips, Bearing Many Numbers, Found On Men
At least a dozen men in Harlem learned this week that it was not a good policy to practice "numbers" gambling when policemen declared war on bankers, runners and collectors, Monday morning and raided halways, cigar stores, restaurants and stores where they found papers with numbers written on them held by suspects. In each case the officers obtained sufficient evidence to justify the arrest. Joseph Carter, 70 West 134th street had $25 in bills and $10 in change. I dwind Warner, 125 West 142nd street had 30 police hoods in 2100 Seventh avenue, Casey Warner, same address, had policy slips in their possession. John Hodges, 656 St. Nicholas avenue, Leslie Graham, 122 West 143rd street, Joseph Smith, 473 Seventh avenue; Joseph Perry, 620 Lenox avenue and Michael Grachus, 24 East point slips in their possession. 1219

Crap Shooters Released By Judge For Christmas
Sixteen men, rounded up in a dice game at 208 West 64th street on Friday of last week, were released 'in make room for the Christmas 'guests' who will fill the cells of the city prison during the holidays.
Patrolman Edward F Robinson of the special service squad was summoned to the above address on complaint of tenants when the gamblers became a nuisance in the neighborhood.
Listening outside the door, the patrolman heard such entreaties as "Regood to papa" and "Baby needs new shoes" as the bones rolled around to different hands.
Magistrate Bradsky gave the boys the joy of the season by dismissing them in night court.
Two Small Children Burn To Death While Parents Milk Cow
Minton, Ma. The two small children of Mr. and Mrs. Conaway Tate were burned to death last Sunday evening when the home was burned to the ground. Mr and Mrs Tate left the children in the house alone at milking time, and during their absence the fire started in some unaccountable way and the house was totally destroyed. One child was 3 years, the other 18.
397 Families Assisted By Charity Body Charity Organization Society's Harlem Committee Holds First Meeting
A comprehensive report of the work of the Charity Organization Society's Hartlem District office was given at the first meeting of the committee on Friday afternoon, December 19, at the 125th street, Dr. E, P. Roberts, chairman presided. Miss Mary Downs is the secretary.
What is known as the Harlem District of the Charity Organization Society lies cast of Eighth avenue. It is bounded on the north and east by the Harlem River and on the south by 110th street (between Eighth and Fifth avenues); 105th street (between Fifth and Third avenues); and 119th street (between Third, avenue, and the river). The Society has ten districts, of which the Harlem District is, the fourth district, the fifth district, the fifteenth district, the nineteenth district, of all families among the Harlem District office 14th year 155 were colored, of which 91 were native born, 14 from U. S dependencies, and 50 foreign. Of the 424 white families, 77 were native born, 9 were from U. S. dependencies, and 156 were of foreign birth. Altogether there were 397 families under care of the 125th street office during the fiscal year end September 30. This represents 13 per cent, of all the families under care of the whole Society—the total number being, 3396.
Only 172 of the 397 families who applied to Miss Downs asked or needed financial help. In 133 families employment was the most serious problem, while in 339 ill health caused the family breakdown or was a presented several problems, someone whose cause of all the others, precepted a crisis. Approximately $7,000 was used in relieving cases of distress among colored residents in the Harlem District.
Take for instance the case of Mrs R. -American born. It never occurred to her that when Mr R. died she would not be eligible for a state windows' pension. The crisis came when simultaneously with the using up of Mr R.'s insurance money, came the news that her claim to a pension had been disallowed until such time as she re-established her citizenship. Here were three problems—a widow with seven young children—insufficient income—and she was not a citizen. The last being the condition that brought her to the United States. Bureau with the C. O. S. visitor was the first step. Here the necessary papers were made out which would make Mrs R. a citizen in four months and in the meantime plans were made for helping Mrs R. until then. Another interesting fact reported on by Miss Downs was that in the families under care there were 217 individuals, 1155 of whom were children under sixteen years of age. This fact alone is one for serious consideration. How to secure these children for the future and see that they are equipped to meet life and not be dependents is a great responsibility. The C. O. S. is trying to meet its responsibility to these children in the families under its care. Each of them is required to be immensely familiar with the Harlem District staff who informs the families for whose welfare she is responsible. By her understanding and patient help frequently hopes and ambitions otherwise unanticipated are realized.
The Harlem District is trying to take the part of the Good Neighbor. It has the backing and sympathy of a large number of those living in the district, but needs the encouragement and money backing of all of the people in Harlem.

Guest at Hotel Astor Luncheon
The Electrical League of the City of New York, composed of electrical contractors and dealers in electrical appliances, gave its annual luncheon at the Hotel Asker last Tuesday, December 23. Fifty-100 members with their friends were present, Mr. and Mrs. Nathan Zolinski, of 2280 seven avenue and 151st street invited Freed R Moore and his daughter, Mrs. Lidlow E. Werner, as their guests.
The luncheon was splendidly served and a quartet furnished music. Each lady was given a package containing a pair of silk stockings as a souvenir and the men present were given Santa Claus caps. The beautiful Christmas tree in Times Square was placed there by the Electrical League and all of its members had the real Christmas spirit.
The visit of Grand Exalted Ruler J. Finley Wilson to the lodge room of Manhattan Lodge, No. 45, I. B. P. O. E. of W., and his alleged attempt to control the action of that lodge in its annual election of officers has created perhaps the greatest stir New York Elkdom has ever known. It has been the theme of discussion wherever two or more "Bills" have gotten together, and opinion has been pretty well divided as to whether or not the reported incidents were true. And if so, as to whether the grand exalted ruled was within his legal rights under the laws of the order, or whether J. Dalmus Steele, exalted ruler of Manhattan Lodge, was justified in defying the head of the order.
he mentioned. He asked if a special called meeting of the lodger was to be held on Friday, December 19, after which he would prepare a statement, giving full and complete account of the events, and led the endeavor of Wilson to assume control of a Manhattan Lodge seemingly for the purpose of directing its election, but really with the intention of getting rid of Steele as exalted ruler,
Withhold Statement
Seen after the called meeting was held, however, Mr Steele stated that Grand Secretary George E. Bates of Newark, who was in the lodge room at time of the Wilson incident, was present, and advised the lodge and the exalted ruler against giving an official statement to the press.
Exalted Ruler Steele, however, authorizes The Age to state definitely that in defying and overthrowing the attempt of Grand Elatee Ruler Wilson of the grand lodge in the confines of a subordinate he he was simply standing upon his constitutional rights for the protection of his lodge as a part of the great Elk, organization and of himself as the directing officer of that lodge
In discussing the matter, Mr. Steele stated that occurrences at the meeting on December 11 were the result of a planned and arranged attempt to oust the present administration of Manhattan Lodge and put in a group of those who are willing to be Wilson's henchmen. One important reason for the ousting of the Manhattan Lodge is one of the strongest lodges in the jurisdiction, with ample financial resources and a large and lively membership.
$30,000 IN Treasury
Figures cited by Mr. Steele show that when he was elected as exalted ruler, Manhattan Lodge had about 600 members and $12,000 in treasury. During his administration there have been added 1,500 members, bringing the enrollment to more than 2,000 and there has been purchased by Elks. Home hosting of $2,000 was offered by the lodge and been $42,500 by bookers. And the lodge has in its treasury today more than $30,000 in cash. Mr. Steele said that the membership of his lodge included some of the heat men in the city, men from all ranks of life. There were, of course, as is to be expected in so large a group, a number who do not measure up to the highest standards. But the decent, law-abiding element is in control and it is this class, he says, which forms the core of the Manhattan Lodge's growth has been shaped.
There is and has been for sometime the strongest sort of opposition to the rule of the present administration of the Grand Lodge of Elks, with Mr. Wilson at its head, according to Mr. Steele, for the reason that it is believed to be a detriment to the order. Several incidents were cited to illustrate the character of the administration of affairs under Wilson's leadership, most of which are based on old legends, a book calculated to lower the dignity which should attach to the order's head.
-Wilson Was Not Invited
With reference to the visit of the graud exalted ruler to Manhattan Lodge on December 11, Exalted Ruler Steele declared it was not by request or invitation of the lodge or any of the lodge officer. Without committing
himself directly, it was gathered that the Magistrate exalted the ruler, had not exhibited any wrongdoing, and had indulged in his public life, he would have been permitted, as a matter of courtesy, to remain in the lodge room and reside at the meeting. With regard to the possibility of a visitation being visited upon Manhattan Lodge by the grand ruler as a result of the refusal of its permission, the Lodge was the setting of Grand Exalted Ruler Wijlih this occasion, Mr. Steele declared he had no misgivings. It is believed that the Magistrate Lodge officers are on well-grounded by the legality of their activities and the soundness of their attitude, that they would welcome an opportunity to throw the whole thing out under legal guises.
Memphis Endorse Steele
A casual canvass of the membership of Manhattan Lodge indicates that more than 99 per cent endorse, approve and support Exalted Ruler Steele. It is pointed out that at no time has there been more than a few men, some a few less than a dozen, who have given evidence of not being in accord with the present administration of the lodge. If the small staff and the small will present that Exalted Ruler Wilson is alleged to have received the an encouragement which led him to think that he could step in and usurp authority in the lodge room.
Mr. Steele decried many of the statements made in local papers concerning the disturbances in Manhattan lodge room on December 11, and took occasion to compliment The Age as having the most decent and nearly correct account. However, said he, inaccuracies in other published accounts destroyed any value they might otherwise have possessed.
Manhattan, Lodge believes in deciency and good order, said Mr. Steele, and is willing to render fullest allegiance to those officials who exemplify the one and maintain the other. But there still will always be the courage to oppose oppressive and illegal action, without regard to its source.
ing hundred dollars bills as cigar lighters."
Over in the corner, a fellow who had been quietly reading, raised his head and asked, "Say, why don't the preachers talk about this thing from the pulpit and advise their compaginations about the foolishness of "the others?" Huh? Say, brother, some of the preachers might do that, but others of them are playing this game themselves. Why, down here on 131st street there is a big preacher—of one of the biggest churches in Harlem—and the folks are saying that he has certain of his members who come every morning and get his money his slip with the list of numbers he wants to play, going to preach the game?" that is true.
"I don't know—but they say also that the figures placed upon the bulletin board indicating the hymns used at Sunday's services, with figures which correspond to the chapter and verse of the scriptures from which the sermon's text is taken, are often the same as those contained in numbers which are regularly, played by members of this preacher's church. "And sometimes one of these numbers comes Claring House balance. If too many of them are played, though, when that happens, it is more than apt to be a 'bad luck' day for them after all, because then the banker is just as apt to welch as not and not pay anybody Sometimes, though, he will offer a compromise and pacify them by giving a part of what their winners would be.
This statement drew out a chorus of comment to the effect that several of the men in the shop and experienced the game, instantly not familiar with the game, wanted to know how the men got away with such things and were able to stay around Halem.
"Well, what can you do?" the bankers stand in with the police and are given all sorts of protection. One of the big bankers, a Cuban, welched on paying his losses one day, and a few days later he was caught off guard and given a severe beating, but the two bankers are too wise to be caught like that.
According to current reports in Harlem, the attempt of Moe Immerman to monopolize the "numbers" banking business in Harlem is in a far way to be successful. Others are striving hard against him, by tyranny, kill and some of the Cuban, Marcelina reputed to have retired from the game and to beivoting all his time to a perforary business he has set up down again quite getting into the others say Marcelina has been out of it. One or two others, it is said, are also in the business but Moe seems to have the intellectual observers say Moe pays a price to the right men and gets a more through protection for himself and workers.
Organize To Study And Preserve Negro Literature and Art
Organize To Study And Preserve Negro Literature and Art
---
An interesting discussion was engaged in when a group of well known men and women, interested in race development, met on Tuesday night, December 16, at the West 135th street branch of the New York Public Library and considered means for the study and preservation of Negro literature and art.
As a result of this meeting, there has been formed an organization, which will have its headquarters at the library, for the collecting of all available historical data and literary material by and concerning the Negro. It is planned to house the material gathered on the third floor of the library building.
the organization is tentatively under the title of "Department of Negro Literature and Literature," and audited names are Arthur Schumacher, president; Margaret Rose first vice-president; James Weldon Johnson, second vice president; Dr Hubert H. Harrison, secretary; John I. Nall, treasurer.
Miss Rose also the librarian in charge of the branch, has been requested to answer all queries concerning the organization and she will do so at the library.
Harlem Hooch Hounds Are Libelling The Order of Ellks. Unless Latter Are Best Customers of Bootleggers Numerous Illicit Liquor Selling Jouls In Harlem Put Up Signs Calling Themselves "Ellks' Rest" and Similar Title, Intended To Appeal To Members of Order
Members of the Improved Benevolent Protective Order of Elks of the World, if one is to judge from the signs displayed by many of the hooch joints operated in Harlem by Italian and Jewish bootleggers, are among the thirstiest of mortals.
If this is not true, then members of that grand and noble order ought not delay in taking steps to put a stop to the slander and libel contained in each and every one of the signs referred to.
On the front doors, or windows, or awnings of many of the bootleggers establishments referred to, the sign is placed "Elks Rest," "Elks' Retreat," "Elks' Cafe," "Elks' Smoke Shop," or any of a half dozen other appellations. Certainly the immediate thought of those of the bootleggers of the hooch traffic in Harlem is that the Order of Elks, as a body, must be relied upon by the bootleggers for the major portion of their trade.

Libelling the Elks
But it is believed that this is a libel upon the 'Order of Elks', and it is suggested that there must be some legal way by which these audacious boot-leggers can be made to put a stop to it. At any rate, it is an illegal business and the Elks, who are certainly law-supporting, 'might easily start such machinery to 'might easily as will put these violators out of the game.
A deplorable condition which has arisen comes through the increased numbers of women and girls who are to be seen daily frequenting these hooch joints, particularly those on Seventh Avenue. Several of those of the 130th-133rd in the immediate place of women to walk boldly, through the front door, right along with the male patrons, and it is said to be a common sight to see women come out to the street in a drunken and stolid condition.
Certainly, say observers of conditions, there is in plain sight every day sample evidence of law violations. But in the meantime, revenue officers are not frequently seen, that is not nowadays. The police, on the other hand, notwithstanding the absence of a state-enforcement law, are keeping active, Frequent raids and arrests are the result.
Ought to Close Up Joints
- Residents of Harlem express the hope that the enforcement officers might cooperate to the end of making permanent such a condition as existed for twenty-four hours some time ago, when every hooch joint on Seventh and Lenox avenues was closed up tight. The people say that if it was done once it can be done again, and that the officers ought to get together and do it. The hooch joint at 2390 Seventh avenue, opened recently in the small building erected on one-half of the court entrance between 139th and 140th streets, has been padlocked. This has happened, notwithstanding the "pull" of the landlord, who is alleged to have informed her tenant that as much hooch could be sold as possible, as she had sufficient influence to watch out for difference. The place was closed last week, and possibly as a salve to the self-concent of the owner, the door bore a placard saying "This place is closed until further notice BY ORDER OF THE OWNER." But truth will out! The owner's order was that impelled by a Federal Court injunction.
Look Out! Don't Fall!
Frank Bastone, owner of a chain of hooch joints on Seventh avenue, and who was hailed into court last week on a bench warrant charged with violating a specific injunction against the sale of alcoholic liquors at 2360 Seventh avenue, succeeded in having his hearing postponed until January 12, the while he is but on $1,000 bail. In the meantime, to show his sense of humor, when the joke it not on him, he caused to be inserted in the columns of an out of town paper, which has some circulation in Harlem, the following advertisement
A Merry Christmas and
A Happy New Year
To All!
LOOK OUT! DON'T FALL!
Loui Bastone
F. J. Bastone

The irony is, contained in the admonition, "Look Out Don't Fall" for patrons, at the 260 Seventh avenue of the city, where the city is to keep from falling is not to drink
A Dangerous Dive
One of the most notorious and dangerous glives in Harlem is the one run by Mason Sternberg at 2195 Fifth avenue—"The Elks' Smoke Shop" it is called. This man boasts openly and aboveboard that he has no fear of having his bootlegging activities erased. He boasts that he "proper people" it is up to the Prohibition Enforcement Department to refute the boastings of Sternberg. At the same time, it would be curbing the activity of one of the most sinister booth hounds now operating in Harlem. The clientele to which he carries of a class that is preferably infaced by agency that catches to its vicious nature. Sternberg does not live at the fifth avenue address, however. His res
dence is given as being way over on East 72nd street, for removed from the scene of his fatuous illicit raffle in poisonous hooch
The victims of poison hooch continue to multiply. Twenty-one patients were admitted to Bellevue Hospital last Sunday between noon and midnight. At that time the deaths totalled thirty-five shoe December 1, and there were 120 patients in the institution at that time as a result of poison alcohol.
Boys' Dormitory At Palmer Mem. Inst. Destroyed By Fire
Greenboro, N. G.-Friday night, December 12, the boys' dormitory, an old wooden, two-story structure, at Palmer Memorial Institute, Sedalia, was completely destroyed by fire. The students were in the chapel at the time, and before the fire having got such a start before it was discovered, the boys lost very nearly all their belongings. The total loss is estimated to be about $10,000.
The next day, E. P. Wharton, a prominent white citizen of Greenboro, president of the board of trustees of the university, a subscription movement, to replace the burnt building, by pledging $100.
A few days following Mr. Wharton's gift, Mrs. I. Sternberger, send her check for $1,000 to the president of the board for the institute
Mrs. Sternberger is the widow of the late Imanuel Sternberger, who, during his life time here in Greenboro, was connected with the Cone Cotton Manufacturing Company, as one of its leading factors.

Mrs. Sternberger, in making this gift is only continuing the work which was close to the heart of her husband, for which she has not only the thanks of the trustees, but the deep gratitude of the members of both races, who are friends of the institute, for the memorial Institute has no endowment, and friends almost entirely upon subscription to friends, this loss by fire is keenly felt.
As Palmer Memorial Institute has no endowment, but depends almost entirely upon subscriptions from her friends, this loss by fire is keenly felt. Mrs Charlotte Hawkins Brown is its principal.

Finally Wins His Way
Back To His U.S. Home
Barred By Dept. of Labor
As Undesirable Alien,
Court Releases Him
An interesting case was recently decided by Judge Henry W. Goddard in the United State District Court, South Carolina District, in which Ebenezer A. Morris, held for thirteen months by the immigration authorities under a warrant of deportation, finally gained his freedom. Former Congressman Martin C. Anserge was interested in behalf of Morris, and Attorney Benjamin S. Kirsel and Murray Stockman brought habea corpus proceedings in his behalf, and was on this proceeding that the man was finally permitted to enter the United States. Morris was deported by the Department of Labs as an undesirable alien on the plea that he was liable to become a public charge. He had been convicted of a minor crime in California, where he has a wife and two children. It was pointed out that Morris is only 34 years old, in perfect physical health, and had always been able to support himself and family. The court ruled that the California conviction was not sufficient to support the allegations of the Secretary of Labor.
The Department of Labor claimed that Morris was born in Jamaica. West Indies, but the man himself declared his earliest recollections were of a residence in Lima, Peru, when he was five years old. Sept to Jamaica on November 30, 1923, the Jamaican authorities refused him admission because no record could be found either of his birth or previous residence there. He was brought back to Ellis Island on December 17, 1923. Then, on April 9, 1924, he was again deported to Jamaica, and again was barred. He reached Ellis Island for the last time on April 22, last, and had been there continuously ever since, until ordered released on the haleas corpus proceedings by Judge Goddard.
Traveling Health Exhibit Shown In Harlem Windows
Traveling Health Exhibit Shown In Harlem Windows
A special travelling health educational exhibit, arranged by the Harlem Tuberculosis Committee of the New York City Department, is visiting the drug store windows of Harlem this Christmas season—staying for a few days in one window and moving on to the next. Through the generosity of the druggists who have given of their window space, it has been possible the tuberculosis Committee to place an annual photobooth capturing the activities that it carries on throughout the year, health posters that have an important message to deliver, the travelling exhibit's features—tells its health story in its own interesting way. The crowds that gathered to watch it furnish sufficient proof that it does accomplish its purpose.
The pamphlet, "What We Are Doing for health in Harlem," recently distributed by the Harlem Committee, can be procured in the store whose window is displaying the exhibit. This pamphlet outlines, in a concise and informative way, the work that the Harlem Tuberculosis Committee is carrying on in the community.
The exhibit also calls attention to the Christmas Seals Sale now in progress and acts as a silent, but none the less effective, reminder that the activities illustrated in the store window are supported by the little tuberculosis seals.

When last year's income tax was made public a few weeks ago by Federal authorities, it was discovered that the Antillean Holding Co., Inc. of 161 West 145th street was one of the largest. tax payers among the colored group of New York businesses.
To those who have watched the remarkable progress of this company since its organization in March 1919, this fact was not surprising, for there are few Negro enterprises that have better records. In five years' time the Antillean has bought ten valuable apartment houses in Harlem, its latest purchase being the Rangley Court at 137th street and Seventh avenue, a seven story elevator apartment which houses fifty-four families. It also has one apartment house under lease and makes rent collections of over $175,000 annually.
The company is capitalized at. $300,000 with $108,300 worth of stock fully paid and out-stooding. During its period of operation $20,000 in cash dividends have been paid. Its balance sheet of September 30 last showed a surplus of $80,000 for the year.
A notworthy fact in commenting on the progress of this company, is the confidence that its 300 shareholders have in the board of directors. Except in cases of death the board remains the same as it was when first organized. Augustine A. Austin is the president and has been the manager of the company from the first and he has associated with him the following officers and directors: Joseph A. Page, vice president; S. T. Christian, secretary-treasurer; and James O. Peters, James E. Townsend, Statchel Edwards, Natlab O'Flaherty, Moses E. Williams and George A. James, directors.
2 Taken For One Holdup; On Way To Another
Accused of holding up and robbing Albert Warshaw, in his cigar store at No. 312 St. Nicholas avenue, two colored bandit suspects were captured in West One Hundred and Fifteenth street near Eighth avenue early Tuesday in a chase in which one shot was fired.
Both men were locked up in the West One Hundred and Twenty-third street police station, where, according to the police, they admitted being on the way to Fortieth street and Eighth avenue to "stickup another store"
The prisoners described themselves as David Tete, twenty-three years old, of No. 59 West, 139th street, and Jesse Mitchell, twenty-three, of No. 208 West, 133rd street. Both were charged with felonious assault and robbery, and Mitchell, upon whom the police allege they found a loaded .38 calibre revolver, faces an additional charge of violation of the Bullivan law.
Warsaw was alone in his store, which is on St Nicholas avenue between 125th and 126th streets he told the police, when the two entered. One leveled the revolver at his head, forcing him into a back room, while the other seized $30 from the cash register and a gold watch and chain from his vest. Producing a coil of ropit, the cigar dealer said the two bound him firmly to a chair, took the money and left.
A customer, entering the cigar store ten minutes after the pair had departed heard the moans of the dealer, and looking into the back room discovered his prowess. Unbinding Warshaw, the customer telephoned the West 123rd street station Detectives Michael Curtin and Harry Staten were sent to the cue, and after an investigation started a search for the bandits. In the meantime a general alarm had been sent out Patrician John Clune at the West 123rd street station on duty at 123rd street and English Avenue twenty minutes after he had received a description of the inter, according to the police saw two Negroes wearing peculiar tan coats mentioned in the flash. He started towards them. The Negro, seeing him approach, fired east on 123rd street towards Seventh avenue. Clune drew his revolver and fired at him. Both halted exclamation.
Don't kill us. Matter. Please
don't kill us.

SCHOOL A NECESSITY
The necessity of keeping the boys and girls at school cannot be too strongly emphasized. The state offers the priceless boon of education to all the children within its limits. It is the duty, as well as the privilege, of all parents to see that their children are sent regularly to school. Regular and punctual attendance at school should be the prime object of childhood. Through it the children receive their early training for the duties of life. Rightly conducted, school time should be pleasant as well as profitable.
It has been reported that there is a perceptible falling off in the attendance of pupils at the new junior high school, recently opened in Harlem. This should not happen. The advantages offered the children through this new and attractively appointed building should be utilized to the utmost. It is a shortsighted policy that allows a child to miss these opportunities for obtaining useful training, through its own selfwill or for the chance to earn a few dollars. Only the sternest kind of necessity would justify putting a child at work, before it has acquired the fullest degree of education it can absorb.
The widespread opportunities for education offered in a great city like New York should have a special call for the newcomers from the South. Even those whom necessity compels to labor during the day can find opportunity for self-improvement in the various right schools. But the children should be kept at school at any sacrifice possible to parental devotion. It is criminal neglect in these modern times to allow a child to grow up in ignorance, unfitted to work at any skilled trade or profession and obliged to accept the hazards incident to unskilled labor.
Conscientious parents should keep their children in school until they graduate. By doing they furnish them the equipment or future usefulness.

ROOSEVELT AT SAN JUAN HILL

About two weeks ago a memorial shaft was dedicated at the battle field of San Juan Hill; Cuba, in commemoration of the active part that the late Theodore Roosevelt play in the liberation of the Cuban people from Spanish tyranny. The special reason for the erection of the monument at Santiago was that Col Rosevelt commanded the First Regiment of Volunteer Infantry, popularly known as the Rough Riders in the charge upon San Juan Hill
The municipality of Santiago gave a triangular park as the site for the memorial, at the junction of the Avenida Roosevelt and the 'Avenida de la Republica, on the direct highway to San Juan Hill, where the battle was fought twenty-six years ago. The monument is a simple bust by James Earle Frazer, with over it in Spanish this saying of Roosevelt: "Only those are fit to live who do not fear to die." The movement to erect this monument was participated in by the Rotary Club of Santiago, the Rough Riders Association and the Roosevelt Association
There is no denying the important part that the taking of San Juan Hill played in the Santiago campaign, although such writers as Stephen Bonsal claim that it was carried out through the direct disobedience of orders on the part of General Joe Wheeler, who rushed his troops into an engagement under unfavorable conditions and set aside the accepted plan of the campaign. However, Colonels Wood and Roosevelt were not responsible for this any more than the commanding officers of the First and Tenth Cavalry who took part in the fight at Guasima, where Captain Capron and Hamilton Fish, Jr. were killed. Speaking of this engagement, Bonsal said "The honors of the engagement in a great measure fall to the Tenth Cavalry, who were better prepared, and knew how to act more quickly in the emergency that arose in carrying out the precipitate advance they had been ordered to make."
Discussing the taking of San Juan Hill Mr. Bonsal says that Lieut Ord led the charge which was ordered by General Hawkins, and that Ord was the first man on the heights of San Juan. His further impression is "that the flag of the Sixteenth infantry was the first of our flags to wave over San Juan Hill, that the men of the Sixteenth
Infantry captured and hauled down the Spanish colors from the blockhouse; and that there were more men of the Twenty-fourth Infantry, the brave blacks; first on the ridge than of any other regiment."
During his lifetime Theodore Roosevelt never hesitated to give credit to the black regulars, for the part they played in the taking of San Juan Hill. It is worth recalling at this time, when a monument is erected to his memory on the site of that battle field. His memory should be preserved as that of a true American, who not only fought fairly and bravely in war, but practiced a fair deal for his fellows in peace, regardless of race or color.
PRELUDE TO CHRISTMAS
As a prelude to the ushering in our Christmas spirit of good cheer and peace, men, there were two lynchings reported the daily papers of last week. The first these took place at Nashville, Tenn., with an armed and masked mob abducted Smith, a fifteen year old Negro, strung to a tree and riddled the body with bullets. The crime of which he was accused was shooting and wounding of a Nashville officer. The mob seized its victim while lay wounded and helpless in the city hall, where he was bound to a bed, so a render his escape impossible.
The second lynching occurred at Charleston, Mo., where Roosevelt Griggsby, two years old, was hanged, shot and his body dragged through the street and burged into a mob. The outburst was prompted, according to the news dispatches, by an alleged tack the Negro had attempted upon a w girl. In neither of these cases did the appear to have been any attempt made by local authorities to prevent the action, the mob or to protect the accused from violence.
And yet there seemed to be an understated rent of public sentiment that this thing murder and torture by the hands of an intrepid mob is not the proper way in which to punish a crime, if in fact any crime is been committed. The Governor of Missouri was so affected by this sentiment that announced he would offer the munification reward of three hundred dollars for the arm and conviction of the mob leaders. We a price for the vindication of the supreme of the law of Missouri!
Nashville went the executive of Missouri some better, in its attempt to show the world that the "best citizens" do not approve mob violence and murder. A special patch to the New York Herald Tribune stated that representative citizens of Nashville, at a meeting of the Chamber of Commerce, voted to raise five thousand dollars to supplement any rewards offered by the city or the state for the arrest or conviction of the lynchers. Of course, there might be any such reward offered by either the state or the city, but the representative citizens of Nashville have at least washed the hands after the orthodox fashion of a famous Roman governor, and can celebrate the Christmas with a clear conscience.
Despite the fact that in neither of these cases did the action of the Governor or the representative citizens rise to meet the emergency, it is a moral gain to perceive that lynching has begun to jar even the castiron complacency of such public sentiment as obtains in Missouri and Tennessee. By and by these people will begin to realize that so-called mob law is murder, and the mob is simply an aggregation of cowardly murderers. A community that encourages lynching by acquiescence or connivance is community of murderers.
Until the local and state authorities show some real desire to prevent lynching or to punish its perpetrators, the need for Federal legislation will continue to be a live issue. Lynching should be suppressed in order to save the whites of the South from the consequences of their own violence and disregard of law.
ELECTION FIGURES GONE WRONG
We do not know where the Cleveland Gazette got the figures upon which it bases its editorial blaming the colored voters of the Twenty-first New York district for the defeat of Dr. Charles H. Roberts in the recent Congress election. But the figures it printed were all wrong, and as a consequence the conclusions based on those figures were equally erroneous. We reproduce the Gazette's article, which was named "Our People to Blame". It read.

We reproduce the Gazette's article, which was headed "Our People to Blame". It read.
Dr. Charles Roberts a member of the race, was the regular Republican candidate for Congress, at the recent election in the 21st New York district. In the Harlem section of that district are 25,000 or more qualified Afro-American voters. He polled only 7,000 votes in the entire congressional district, as against 11,000 voters he has appointe (white Regardless of what white Republicans in that district did, or did not do, the fact remains that our people there are to blame for Dr. Roberts' defeat because they have more than twice as many votes as he would win it but the same old story. There is not another group of American citizens in this country that he forced to make any such showing as our voters made in Dr. Roberts' case on the recent election day in the 21st congressional district of New York state. Ohio Afro-Americans "sit up and take notice."
The number of votes cast for Dr. Roberts the entire district was in round numbers 6,000. His vote in the colored section of the district aggregated 18,000, which shows
The number of votes cast for Dr Roberts in the entire district was in round numbers 30,000. His vote in the colored section of the district aggregated 18,000, which shows
that he practically received the unanimous support of this group of voters, including nearly all who had registered. The trouble was that his Democratic opponent, Representative Weller, received 43,000 votes, running ahead of the Republican candidate by some 7,000 votes.
Campaign post-mortems as a rule are not productive of any good results, but one result of this one is to show that it was no defection of the colored vote that caused the defeat of the colored candidate for Congress.
Editor Smith should be sure that his figures are correct before he places the blame on the wrong shoulders. "The colored troops fought nobly," as they always do.
WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH FISK?
For some time there have been charger made reflecting on the present policy and management of Fisk University, located at Nashville, Term. How serious the criticism that has been provoked by this situation may be gauged by the attitude of the Fisk Club of New York, as presented in a recent number of the Fisk Herald. As stated under the title heading, this publication was "formerly a monthly college journal, published by the Literary Societies of Fisk University, Suppressed by Fayette A. McKenzie in 1916. Re-established by the Associated Fisk Clubs and dedicated to the emancipation of the Fisk Spirit from its present slavery."
The object of the revival of this publication is clearly defined in the following editorial:
Children of Fisk and Friends of the American Negro: Fisk University has fallen on evil days; it has gotten money and lost the spirit of Cravath, Spence, Bennet, Chase and Morgan. This great institution must be rescued or it will die.
As the first step toward this work of emancipation, the Herald published the address of Dr. DuBois delivered at Fisk before the president, faculty, alumni and students June 2, 1924. In this address made upon the thirty-sixth anniversary of his graduation from Fisk, the speaker delivered a scathing criticism of its present policy. In his arraignment he charged that in Fisk today discipline is choking freedom; that the tendency is to cramp self-expression and cast everything in an iron mould.
It was further charged that no opinion can be expressed by the students in any public way. The suppression of the Herald was denounced as a shame, indicating the choking of self-expression and manhood. It was alleged that Fisk continually teaches its students that the only thing required of the black man is acquiescence and submission. The truth concerning the present racial situation is systematically kept from the students, as well as the truth concerning the great liberal movements of the world. All these charges were fortified by instances and examples given by the speaker.
The reason for this state of affairs was attributed to the fact that those in control of the university do not know what is for our good or what we think is for our good. They have not before them the facts and points of view and considerations that are of tremendous importance to us. Such sources of information are ignored, by the failure to utilize the knowledge and experience of the students, their parents, the alumni and the whole black world in America. A further reason for this ignoring of racial opinion is suggested in the possibility that the control of this institution has been sold to the white South for a million dollars, that being the amount of the endowment recently raised for Fisk.
Enough has been quoted from the criticisms so openly made and published as to warrant the opinion that something is wrong with this historic institution. The purpose of the alumni who have started this movement is to ventilate the facts. It is promised an later issues of the Herald to print proofs of each assertion made in Dr. DuBois' address. The belief is that ultimately Fisk will and must survive, but in order to make its survival justified it is the purpose of those behind to put it in the line of modern educational progress.
The means proposed to bring about this end are publicity, so that the whole world may know what is happening at Fisk. Second, organization of the alumni and friends of the organization, to rescue it from its present plight. Third, elective representation on the board of trustees. Until these steps become effective, it is proposed to support the boycott of the institution already begun.
The whole matter constitutes a serious arrangement of Fisk, which should demand the immediate attention of those who are responsible for the present conduct of this institution. The trustees and the faculty should get together and study the situation.

Comments By The Age Editors On Sayings of Other Editors
The bill to make Lincoln's birthday a legal holiday, in the District of Columbia, was defeated in the House of Representatives by a negative vote of 175 to 149. And yet this Coorgus at a previous session voted to coin thousands of silver half dollars to add the Confederate Memorial Monument at Stone Mountain, Georgia. This coinage will bear the likeness of Jefferson Davis and other Rebel leaders. It looks as if the war of the Rebellion was won by the Rebels after all.
bran-headed colored editors and stoic pigeons going wild over this much dodo from the President, who has full power to regulate and stop all that he complains of in the paragraph about the colored race. He has influence over-boy Houses of Congress to enact any laws as are necessary to enforce the amendments to the constitution. He has a legal department of which the Attorney General can act and compel every State in the United States to enforce the franchise of every citizen in this country. We believe President Coolidge in a big man and will do as he wishes to to enforce all laws. It is all
North Carolina voters are protesting against the appointment of Col. Isaac M. Meekins a, a Federal judge. Meekins is a Lilwhite, who while running for Governor as a Republican, stated that he wanted no Negro votes, as he did not believe in their voting anyhow His unfness a member of the Federal judiciary was pointed out in a letter to the Attorney General because his utterances showed him opposed to enforcing the Federal Constitution.
The Pacific Defender after searching the records of the various departments of the public service, employing 5000 people in Los Angeles, stated that not one of our group is occupying a position of honor or responsibility, nor even a job as a menial. Inquiring as to who is at fault for this condition, it said.
To obtain an answer to this question, let us apply the test, by making application to the Civil Service Commission, and taking the examination for positions in all of the departments, such as clerks and bookkeepers in the offices, engineers and helpers, also water gaugers at pumping stations, electricians, linemen, meter readers, chafteurs, mechanics, garage men, janitors and messengers.
We urge upon as many in our group as feel that they are competent to fill the above mentioned positions to register for the next examination, and post your names with us, or any of the civic bodies who take an active part in public affairs and racial adjustments. If these instructions are followed, then we will be able to answer the question, "Can We Get It?"
That is the proper way to go about the matter and to find out whether there is any bar to prevent compenten colored men and women from securing places in the municipal service.
Emphasizing the value of the laymen's point of view in church matters, in that it usually looks toward results rather than methods, the Philadelphia Christian Recorder recently said:
"The whole social service attitude of the church is a response to the lay call to the church. In many respects it is superficial, but it is effective for it looks to results, and the mind wants results. It is impatient of technicalities in law, medicine, education religion, because it does not understand them. In the professional educational field a Ph.D. degree has wonderful influence. When one bearing the degree comes into an audience, people whisper "the book his Ph.D. from Harvard" or "Yale or Columbia"; "He is a specialist in psychology;" and the professionals listen to him with enthusiasm as he deals out technicality after technicality; but the laymen don't listen, they don't care how many Ph.D. he has the question with them, "Can he get results?"
The danger in this attitude is that it often gives high place to quacks and impostors. Still however greet may suits. In the church this is more true than in other branches, simply because the more intelligent laymen, through the state, have had laws passed to weed out impostors. Still however, great may be the degree of the attitude of the laymen it is fundamentally honest, and should be respected.
The remedy for this, according the Recorder, would be an efficient, converted and consecrated ministry, with inspiring leadership, bent upon service
Advocating the doctrine of "All Men Up," the St. Louis Angus said.
There are in this city certain forces, men and women, who call themselves Christians, who have handed themselves together to keep the Negroes down. They tell us to educate and improve ourselves. Yet they seem to forget that with education, thrift and industry comes the very natural desire for better homes and better environments. When we seek better places in which to live, they tell us that we are encroaching on their rights.
In America, bargaining and trading are the chief factors in our commercial life. It is the natural right of a citizen to buy and sell anything he has from the smallest tooth-pick to a merchant marine vessel. To deny any citizen this right is a violation of the spirit of the Constitution of the United States. To say to one man, "Thus far shalt thou risen and no higher—God forbid that any such spirit should prevail in America.
The spirit of all men up, limited only by the own ability to play the game by the Golden Rule, is the only right way.
That is the only doctrine which should prevail in the United States, to make free and valued host as the land of equal opportunity. That was the doctrine preached and practiced by such great Americans as the late Theodore Roosevelt.
While thankful for the expression concerning the Negro in the President's message to Congress, the Tropica Phalomere regarded it as an acknowledgment to the world that the government is not giving the race a square deal. It added.
What the people of this nation want is enforcement of the laws equally upon all alike and that we put an end to a special message to Congress concerning any special law. Furthermore, the people want action instead of express; now we look for a lot of cheap

bran-headed colored editors and stock pigeons going wild over this "musty dodo" from the President, who has full power to regulate and stop all that he complains of in the paragraph about the colored race. He has influence over both Houses of Congress to enact any laws as are necessary to enforce the amendments to the constitution. He has a legal department of which the Attorney General can act and compel every State in the United States to enforce the elective franchise of every citizen in this country. We believe President Coolidge is a big man and will do as he wishes to, to enforce all laws. It is also up to the president to break up Jim Grow Carism; he has the appointing of the Interstate Commerce Commissioners who can compel all Interstate traffic to be so regulated that trains going through different states will not be allowed to force colored passengers into inferior coaches. This this President can do if he wants to. What the colored people want is to be regarded as American citizens not as Negroes, colored or anything else but just plain American citizens
Evidently the Kansas editor knows what is wrong in the present situation and argues immediate action to square it.

DEAREST OF ALL GIRLS:
"For unto us is born this day in the city of David, a Saviour which is Christ the Lord."
Nearly 2000 years ago in a lowly manger in Bethchem, Judea, was born a child who was Christ the Saviour. Wisemen from the East followed the star, which rested over the stable and Went thh and worshipped Him. My subject will be.
The Spirit of Christ
The Spirit of Christ
How joyful we should be that God has spared our lives to celebrate the Messiah's birth. The spirit of the Christ is seen in the lives and actions of mankind, "By your fruit ye shall know them." What are some of the qualities one should possess in order to have the spirit of Christ? I will enumerate a few.
Charity
Humility
Righteousness
Integrity
Service
Truth
Mercy
Accord
Sacrifice
The spirit of giving is also an attribute of the Spirit of Christ, Christ did not have money, nor influence in the world of affairs, no powerful friends but He gave to the world a more precious gift. "He gave Himself a random for many. He gave cheer to the children of the dead. He gave so that you and I might give Give joy, life, service, for you shall not pass this way again. At this time of the year, we all have the spirit of Christ. But when we search our hearts, we are truly giving as the Christ gave? Do we think of this? It is more blessed to give than to receive." Or we give, and expect something in return. This Christ mustade my dear sisters, not to be seen of men, but because you have the Spirit of Christ in you. This kind of gift is one that blesses the giver as well as the receiver. "The least ye do unto one of my little ones, ye do it unto Me." God bless you all—bless everyone—God bless both you and me—

James Kelly, a resident of this city and veteran employee of the Pullman service, recently returned from Jacksonville, Florida, where he had spent six weeks because of ill health. A few days ago we met Mr. Kelly and squezed the opportunity to inquire not only of the trip had proved beneficial to his health, but also what had been his impression of the economic and political conditions under which Negroes in the South were living at present. He replied that the health had been much improved and then went at length into the subject of the southern situation
The chief thing which had impressed him, he said, was the fact that the influence of their hostile environment upon the Negroes of the South was something that only southern Negroes have ever understood and that understanding them the ability to tolerate the arksome conditions and still be prosperous and happy in spite of them. This was, according to him, the only logical conclusion to be drawn from his observation of numerous colored fami- ties, for he came in contact, who, having been in contact with the way of material prosper- were yet practically totally deprived of the privileges of citizenship and its attendant legal rights. This state of affairs, to his mind, made the Negro situation in the South one in- tradition of crimes of comedy and tragedy.
The most ludicrous perpetual see-law situation, said he, was to find Negroes of strong character, welthily and highly educated, being forced by circumstances to do a certain amount of kow towing to whites vastly inferior to them, both in intelligence and worldly possessions. These Negroes manipulate the very prejudice and ignorance of the whites to their own ultimate advantage and it is the ability to do this that the foundation of Negro prosperity throughout Dixie, though at times, leads to unpleasant consequences. He fold the following anecdote to illustrate his point. The incident took place while he was in Jacksonville and is a good illustration of the prejudice and fance of the South in the draining with Negroes on its courts. A Negro was hailed to court on account of an automobile accident.
of a recent editorial in the A. N. dependent, in which the writer the surmise that "racer responsible for the ever present line in the national life than a agency." Among other thing
We raise the question whether think not of it. If a Negro, of merit, fitness, character or succeeds to a place of activity or the army, we are quick to in that the individual succeeded better was a Negro, or that he Negro that ever succeeded such or priminence or amnence.

First Eminanuel Church
mess message by Pastor
in the text "In the year
I did I saw also the
throne, high and
filled the temple"
and the government
the increase of his government and Peace shears; shall be no end." Isaiah 9: 6, 7.
Pastor Bolden said: That Isaiah, the young intellectual admirer of King Uziah, came, into the discovery, of the overwhlining and eternal presence of the Lord through deep sorrow. While in the Temple, perhaps worshipping or in prayer, mourning over the loss of his king, our Father God gave him, the power to manifest a spiritual state of consciousness that reflected the historical of the Eternal Mind. His seeing the Lord's Mind. His training, filling the temple with the aid of assistant sarchipants at His command, while it suggested, many things, the lesson and truth of our Lord's legal position and uniq. versality stands out. When Isaiah saw this transcendent person and glory, he realized both he and his people, were unclean and he turns from mourning over the loss of his kingly, friend to mourning and grieving over sins.
This—attitude of mind on his part caused our Lord to command an angel to use the tongs and take a live coal from the altar and touch Isaiah's lips. By that, Impressing him that he has been made clean. That he is to have a holy, fiery speech, being conscious of the need of true light and teaching among his people. When the question was asked, "Whom shall I send?" his answer was, "Here am I send me." He went forth as a statesman-prophet in Israel. He represented the Eternal Lord of Hosts to the children of Israel in the world of humanity—the kind of divine consciousness that he had. Historical events, relative to our Lord Jesus the Emmanuel, were deposited approximately 700 years before the fullness of time. Wherever his prophecies have been everently studied and rightly interpreted the Messianhs statements have been accepted as not only pointing to our Lord Jesus, the Christ, but very truly Him.
Isaiah spake of our Lord the Emmanuel in the present tense, "Uto us a child is born, a Son is given." He comforts himself and others with the truth that the government in the world of humanity will be upon His Shoulders and His Name shall be called "Wonderful," and so it is "Counsellor," this is true; "The Mighty God," another great truth: "The everlasting Father and Prince of Peace." An eternal truth, when believed and accepted, will not only assure believers of immortal life with Him beyond the grave, but will change the nature of man's life and government to the extent that "Of the inhere shall be no end."
The Literary Society had a program under the auspice of the S M and I Society, William Coleman, chairman.
The evening service was conducted at 8 p.m. and Pastor Bolden continued his discourse of the morning, Holy Communion was served at both the morning and evening services.
The dinner was served during the day by members of the Social Centre.
Grace Church of Harlem
Last Sunday at Grace Church, the decorations, the music, the sermon and the audience made a scene and a service that was deeply impressive. The pastor in his sermon used the traditional Forefather's Day rather than Christmas as the historical background and remarks. It was unique and greeting. Mrs. Carolyn Wright of 203 West 190th street united with the church. The choir rendered an appropriate anthem and some carols and Mr Eckles sang a solo. At the evening service the choir rendered a song service with Mrs Mays as solost. the audience was very generous in the performance. Prot Work and his dozen voices were never heard to better advantage. His organ preludes, interludes and postudes were exceptionally plasing. The music at Grace Church last Sunday was all right.
At the Young People's meeting at 6:30, Counsellor C. T. A French presided for the program of music, and William Pickens, a former period musicist, Music School Proof and Mrs Watkins, rended a program by juvenile music pupils that would put to shame some programs of grown ups
This week at Grace Church, there are several affairs of interest, but the novelty for this new and ambitious church is the 5 a.m. Xmas card and candle lighting service. Music, and a short address, with brief voluntary witnessing will seek to express the feelings of the people on Christmas morning. A pastor has announced a unique Watch Meeting for December 31 Much music will be featured Frank Harrison, who was called by the pastor the best baritone of our group, Mr. Jyons, whose musical studio at St Nicholas avenue is a delight to see, the choir of Grace Church with the children's choir, the installation of officers, a reception to the 1923 members by the 1923 members, Mrs. F T Parkes, chairman, the special group of addicts; short addresses by Nette Terry, Charles Quander, etal, and a snappy address by the Rev Garner will make up the program

Harlem Second Seventh Day Adventist Church
Said pastor Strachan last week "These are days when men reavamp their confession of faith in the teachings of the Holy Bible, how behinting it would be for the rest of us to reaffirm our confession of faith in the doctrines of the Old Testament, the "Seventh-day Adventists believe in the primacy of the Godhead, the deity of Jesus Christ, the personality of the Holy Spirit, the mediation of Jesus Christ, the sinfulness and deprivacy of man; the necessity for the new birth, the maintenance of good works; the reality and personality of Satan." "We believe in the supernatural and plenary authority of God, word, that it is the truth of life, that it contains the truth necessary to many situations, that allowing for certain things and principles, that Word of the Holy God." "We believe in baptism by immer-

to be properly in the support of the
goals by faith and soilingers. We
believe in the second coming of
Christ; that it is imminent; that it
will be universal, visible, literal; that
it will be catastrophic.
We believe that the second advent, also the first general resurrection—the resurrection, of the righteous—will mark the beginning of the millennium period; that during this millennium period the wicked people will be dead on this earth, Satan will be confirmed, here in solitude, while the righteous will be living in heaven. We believe, that the close of the millennium will be marked by the coming of Hades. He will certify this earth, the second general resurrection—the resurrection of the wicked, the executive judgement, the annihilation of sin and sinners and the purification of this earth.
"We believe in the mortality of man, We believe that God alone possesses inherent immortality. We believe that immortality is a precious gift of God to man through Jesus Christ, confessed upon the righteous alone at the first resurrection. We believe that during the period of death, all men are wholly and totally unconglucous. "We believe in the utter destruction and annihilation of unrepentent sinners; that wicked men are not saved, and that they will be consumed, and that they will cease to exist anywhere in the universe, at the close of the millennium. "We believe that the decalogue, as spoken and written at Sinai, is in force today; and because its principles are the foundation of God's law cannot be changed.
"We believe the Sabbath of the decalogue, the seventh day Sabbath, should be observed. We believe that it was constituted at creation, and it symbolizes the eternal life. We believe it is not limited to the Jews, because Christ and his apostles observed it before and after the crucifixion. We believe that Sunday is a pseudodaily day of worship by the Roman Catholics, and as an institution, it is no white countenanced in the Bible."

At 11 a.m., the pastor, Dr. J. D. Bushell preached a most inspiring sermon using for his subject, "Running With Feodman, and Contending With Horseman," the text found in Jeremiah 12:5. In this sermon it was emphasized that being a Christian does not exempt one from cahes, and troubles of the world put the closer one lives to God, the more or the is pursued by the forces of evil. Baptism followed the close of the sermon.
The B Y. P. U., was well attended from 6 to 8 p.m. After a brisk song service, a discussion of the topic continued till closing.

Fleet St. Memorial
A. M. E. Zion Church
Regardless of the cold, Fleet Street congregation was made up of the usual number Sunday morning. Dr. Brown, who had been indisposed for some days filled his pulpit and spoke from the theme, "Our Anchor. An Anchor." The message was a call to action. The occasion did not appear to offer a mere momentary stimulus to the light-headed and impulsive, but rather to strengthen the hearts of his audience to feed their minds and to inspire their wills.
At 3 p. m., Rev. I. G Mason presided elder of the Long Island District of the church, and struck a full sermon. The occasion was the celebration of the Lord's Supper for the last time in 1924. Bishop Caldwell was the speaker at the evening service and received into full connection a large class of probationers. This occasion is usually fraught with interest and solemnity, as the obligatory occasion also closed the general work of the church for the Calendar year.
The Christmas morning service at 5:30 is among the special features that has grown in interest and attendance during Dr. Brown's administration. "Bright Night" will be observed as usual from 11 p. m., until midnight. The second quarterly conference for the conference year was held Tuesday night. The reports from all departments and auxiliaries show a steady growth financially, and numerically. The Son's and Daughter's of Conference gave a shower on Monday evening to Mr. and Mrs. Hardy Pitts, 792 Myrtle avenue. Mrs. Pitts and son are confined in a serious way to their home. Mrs. Sara Poole is president of this organization. Connors of 28 Ashland place is among the seriously ill of the church
The Christmas program and Christmas school was presented Christmas night.
Nazarene Cong. Church
Dr. Henry Hugh Proctor filled his pulpit at both services Sunday, speaking at the morning hour on "The Man of the Hour," in which he held that the great outstanding qualities of childhood are humility, sincerity and obedience which were illustrated severally by our three greatest Americans, Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt and Booker T. Washington, but only perfectly and unitedly by Jesus of Nazareth, the Man of the Hour.
At the evening time the pastor completed the series of sermons on "The Human Side of the Master," speaking upon "The Soul of the Master," which he held was human, and that Christ is still in is humanty exalted and glorified, awaiting our translation into His likeness.
Among the visitors of the day were Mr. and Mrs. A. R. Rose of Manhattan, Lillian Larson, B. B. Woods, The Nazarene choir will render Wilton's "tantata," The Salvation of Tarak?

In the absence of the pastor Rev Thomas W. Cooper, who had been called to Maryland, the pulpit was filled by local preacher, Rev H. Williams. The text was form St. Luke 211, subject, "The Two Ideals that Jesus taught us to reach. The speaker brought out the spirit of Christmas, in his sermon, in what school brightened to the world. Sunday school at 1 p. m., was largely attended.

THE material contrast between the structures with which he (Booker T.

The education and annual turning of students by their hardest and most selfless and their families is of evidence a most commendable and helpful work, but that was only one part of what he did and sought.

Our Great Negro Ballplayers---- Who Was The Greatest Pitcher?
"Old Timer" Continues His Reminiscences On Baseball Among The Colored Players From 1900 To Present Day
Who is the greatest pitcher in colored baseball, was the question put to "Old-Timer" by the jams at the C. V. B A last week.
Slowly he recounted the listRube Foster, Danny McClellen, Kid Carter, Bill Gattwood, Walter Ball, Bill Horn, Harry Buckner, Nelson, Pat Donaldson, Whitworth Tom Johnson, Lee Wade, Dick Redding, Joe Williams, Dave Brown Bill Holland, "Bullet" Rogan, Nip Winters and Jess Winters.
Then without hesitation he replied that the two greatest-pitchers of them all came from the Lone Star State and they are Rube Foster and Joe Williams. "Their records as great pitchers stand high above those of any others named. Andrew Rube Foster of Calvert, Texas, was the greatest pitcher of his day from 1900 to 1969 I would place it. He first gained prominence in the Texas State League with the Waco Yellow Jackets. He was then brought North by the Cuban X Giants in 1900.
"His first game was in Hoboken on a Sunday against the Hoboken semi-professional team, which at that time was one of the greatest semi-professional teams of the country. "Dummy" Egan was the pitcher who opposed Foster in his first game in this section, and the colored pitcher was beaten 14-0. Not discouraged, Foster asked Ed Lanier for another catcher and got Lanier's permission to use his own judgment. He then won 44 straight games, a record that has never been equalled.
"Besides being a wonderful pitcher he was as deadly a hitter as ever stepped to hat in those days. In Harrisonburg, Pa., against the old Tri-State League team, with Cal Vasbinder pitfling at Island Park, he hit a new ball and ripped the cover as though it had been cut with a knife. Single handed he pitched and won two out of three games against the world champions, the Philadelphia Giants, in Atlantic City in 1903.
"Many other things he did in his day was a teat to the fans. He did his best work with a smile and his great stature in the center of the diamond will always be remembered. His pitching days have long been over and he has since made a record as a manager the equal of any in the country—white or black. He is now president of the western colored league and manager and owner of the Chicago American Giants.
"Did he face as many great teams while pitching as did Cyclone Joe Williams? No Cyclone Joe is also from Texas, from the town of Sequene, and pitched for the San Antonio Broncos, Like Foster, he was the leading pitcher in the South about 1909. The late C, I. Taylor brought Joe to Birmingham and the next year he was with the Chicago Giants, Frank Lealand's old team. He remained with this team until 1912 when he joined the Lincoln Giants."
"His first great game in the East was against Ducks Holmes' Newark Ironsiders and he pitched a no hit, no run game with no man reaching first base. The season of 1912 he won 39 and lost 3 games. That fall in the post-season games he defeated Chief eBinder of the famous Philadelphia Athletics, Wilton of the New York Giants, Rudolph of Boston Nationals and many other big league pitchers.
"The 1913 season was the Lunolni's greatest year and Cyclone Joe was the big factor in defeating Rube Foster's American Giants for the world's championship. Dick Redding, the Lincoln's second pitcher's arm went bad and he had only Lee Wade and Judy Gans to help him. The burden of the seven game series was on his shoulders and he pitched four games, winning three. Gans won the deciding game, 5-2, against Big Bill Gatewood.
"In the post-season series he pitched against Drecke with Wilson catching. The first man to face him reached first base but no one else did. His team won 6-0. The following Sunday he defeated Eddie Plank, 3-0. He also won games against Alexander of the Philadelphia 4 Nations, Chalmers and Ruhe Marquard.
"That winter he went to Palm Beach and won the championship for the Breakers. The spring of 1914 found him with Ruhe Foster's American Giants in California against the Coast League clubs. At this time Walter McCredie said to Foster, "This fellow is the greatest pitcher I ever saw."

In addition to the various St. Christopher will have several lighter weight teams the Lugers, the Midgets, etc. and the moral of the little fellow is as high as that of the veteran.
Miss Eliseon Louis Lewis, who is well known to amateur basketball fans, will be the official sponsor of the St Christopher Va Union game.
Ten Indoor Tennis Courts To Be Marked Off In New 369th Infantry.Armory

The game went to the eighth inning with the score 1-0. Gans walked and Petway got a single, then Joe came up and hit safe, scoring two runs and winning the game for his team. In this game and the one on the previous day he struck out 36 men and allowed only four hits.
"Last season when everyone thought that his pitching career was ended, he struck out 27 men in twelve innings against Nat Strong's Bushwick team of Brooklyn. He is still able, after sixteen seasons, to win three-rourths of his games. So hats off to Cyclong Joe, the greatest pitcher of all times."

Joe Williams Leaves With Ball Team For Florida Winter League
Joe Williams, veteran pitcher, will manage a ball team, representing the Poinciana Hotel, in the Florida Winter League at Palm Beach this winter. The season opens about January 5 and many of the players are leaving this week.
His lineup includes: Britt of Baltimore and Spearman of the Royal Giants, catchers; Henderson and Starks of the Bacharachs, and McClure of Baltimore, pitchers; B. Wesley of Harpsburg; first baseman; George Scales of the Lincoln Giants, second baseman; Gerard Williams of the Lincoln Giants, short stop; Cleo Smith of the Lincoln Giants, third base; Kenyon of the Lincoln Giants, left field; Jules Thomas of the Royal Giants, center field, and Wade Johnson of Baltimore, right field.
With this lineup there should be a keen rivalry between the Poinciana team and the one from The Breakers, managed by Pitcher Phil Cockrell of Fultsale.
The Age will carry accounts of all games played in the Winter League

BITS OF NEWS FROM THE EASTERN LEAGUE
The Lincoln Giants will show the public several new faces in their lineup this season. Hilldale is not overpleased with their infield and catching department. There is likely to be some changes before the season opens. Carl Beckwith has been selected to manage the Baltimore Black Sox, replacing the veteran Pete Hill. The big question in Baltimore is whether the owners will pay the same big salaries at a financial loss. Harrisburg is looking for a third baseman and may use Johnson Hill, who was with the Royal Giants Col. Strothers intends to win the pennant. The Bacharach Giants of Atlantic City have changed the personnel of their club. Tom Jackson, business manager, and M. Tucker, treasurer, have been replaced by Harry Daniels, who will act as both business manager and treasurer. Dykes, the real estate broker, is president and John Henry Lloyd is manager.
The Brooklyn Royal Giants are on the lookout for infielders and outfielders. There is likely to be a shakeup in their lineup before spring, as Nat Strong is not satisfied with the team. He wants to beat his old rivals the Lincoln Giants. George Robinson, owner of the Washington Potomac, has secured a new manager in the person of Danny McChellen, former Philadelphia and Lincoln Giants pitcher. Our dope is that he is a brainy leader and should get results.

ARTIST COURSE
the series last event
called that will long be
remembered by students of singing as the most finished programme ever presented by a baritone of the race in Washington.
"From the first group of Russian songs to the last, the familiar "Break, Break, Break," of Wallhew, there was nothing lacking in the arti-tic finesse. Two songs in French were exquisitely sung with perfect diction. Everybody was touched with the wonderful interpretation of two spirituals, "Poor Me," by Bett, and "Gospel Train," by Burleigh. "An Explanation," by Cotteridge-Taylor, "On the Wild Rose Tree," by Rotoli and "Break, Break, Break," constituted the last group, for every student of singing every song was a lesson in Breathing, in Porlamento and particularly in Mezo Voice. Mr. Lamb has a beautiful voice, wonderfully developed and under perfect control. Mr. Lamb, as a baritone, is in a class by himself.
"He conducts a class in voice culture at Orange, N. J., where most of his patronage is white and are able to pay him his price of $5.00 per half hour and always has a waiting list. He has a studio in the Metropolitan Building at Orange where he has been located for thirteen years.
"Mr. Lamb is the first race teacher in New York to present a pappl in Aeolian Hall and will present a second pupil in January, Miss Burnadine Mason, contralto"

THE PRESENT BUSINESS CONDITIONS ARE TRUE INDICATIONS AND AN IMPORTANT FACTOR IN THE COMING OF BETTER UNDERSTANDING AND GOOD-WILL AMONG SINGERS AND PLAYERS OF GREATER NEW YORK.
In the throes of the readjustment of TRADE AND COMMERCE, those who recognize the fact that BUSINESS is BUSINESS are miles ahead of their nearest MUSICAL COMPETITORS. BUSINESS that will promote a better understanding among managers and leaders of musical unit combinations is the surest and best system toward co-operation which is so necessary for better service to PATRONS.
EVERYTHING MUST BE STRICTLY BUSINESS FOR THE GOOD OF ALL CONCERNED.
Unless business methods are the order of the day each day, manager and leaders will continue to make war upon one and other because they do not understand each other.
The more familiar the leaders and combinations are with the contracts and details of engagements, the less desire they have to fight the contractors and managers and will give better service to the. PATRONS.
As the misunderstandings in the past tended to weld the musicians and entertainers together for a short time, so will straight business wold SINGERS and PLAYERS into a cosmic system that will enable them to face their common foes in the spirit of coworking and MUTUAL TRUST
Musicians and entertainers have enough fighting to do with natural opposition and with the many forces that contend against them, without fighting the system that represents them.
THERE IS NO NEED FOR ONE GROUP OF MUSICIANS AND ENTERTAINERS TO FIGHT ANOTHER GROUP.
It will be found in the records that all progress in the groups of SINGERS and PLAYERS has been made not by fighting, but in spite of fighting REAL LASTING PROGRESS IS BY CO-WORKING OF ALL CONCERNED ALL OF THE TIME ALL the methods that have united MUSICIANS and ENTERTAINERS have been by the agents of UNITY and GOOD-WILL.
It remains for the leaders to discover just the proper thing to hold the INTERESTS and GOOD-WILL OF THEIR OWN COMBINATIONS FOR THE GOOD OF ALL.

Howard's Board of Athletic Control Gives Reason For It's Withdrawal From Affiliation With C.I.A.A. Schools
When Protested Games; Were Taken From Howard Charges That An Agreement Pertaining To Enforcement of "3-Year Rule" Was Repudiated By C. I. A. A. Officials Washington, D. C.—The Board of Athletic Control, through Dr. E. P. Davis, chairman, has issued a statement relative to Howard University's withdrawal from the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association, which means, if adhered to, the severing of athletic relations between the Washington school and the other leading colored schools belonging to that body.
Announcement of Howard's withdrawal was contained in a statement sent out following the annual meeting of the C. I. A. A., held at St. Paul School Lawrenceville, Va., on December 12 and 13, and was based upon an enforcement of the three-year eligibility rule, which provides that a freshman, having played upon the team of a preparatory school, that school being a member of the C. I. A. A., shall not be eligible for the varsity eleven until his second or sophomore year. It was claimed that Howard used Robert D. Miller, who had previously played at Virginia Union, in its games against Hampton and Petersburg, winning both games. But these games were order forfeited by the C. I. A. A. and this fed to the withdrawal of Howard from affiliation with the organization. The A. A. and T. College, at Greenbore, N. C. was admitted to membership in the Intercollegiate Association.
Dr. Davis, however, in the statement issued in behalf of the Board of Athletic Controll, declares that the account sent out by the C. I. A. A. does not accurately state the position of the Howard University authorities, and refers to aletter from the Howard officials sent to the C. I. A. A., under date of November 28.
In this letter the charge is definitely made that the C. I. A. A., has reptrated an agreement entered into on May 10, 1924, which provided that 'A preparatory student who plays one year

on a C. I. A. A. team will not have
that year counted against him in case
he should enter the collegiate department
of any other institution or the
Association.
Dr. Davis quotes further from this
letter, as follows: 'Howard, although
having no secondary school, makes no
demand that secondary students in
other institutions be deburred from
their teams. In spite of this amicable
attitude of bears, the Association teams
which themselves have no three-year
rule, attempt to force it upon us by
this last vote that no student - a pre-
paratory school or college - who was a
member of C. I. A. A. team in year
before, shall play during the next year
at Howard.
"It is and has been our belief that
a freshman coming her from anywhere
at all should have the right to play
until we ourselves adopt a three-year
rule."
The charge is made that although the provision agreed to on May 10 was printed in the 1924 rules at the insti-
ence of the Howard officials and was unanimously agreed to, it was repudiated when the first case to which it was
applicable came up for consideration. A complete statement of the Howard
position will be given the public say Dr. Davis and he intimate also that attention will be paid that he toma

Newark. N. J.
Newark, N.J.—Christmas services were held in all departments of 13th Avenue Presbyterian Church last Sunday and were all of a highly interesting order. The Sermon preached by Dr. Ellerson at the morning service was above the usual high standard with the use of the chanting. The text and subject were unique: The first question of the Old Testament: "Where art thou?" and the first question of the New Testament: "Where is he?" The preacher showed the object of the first question was to turn the searchlight on tallen man—the first Adam; and the object of the second question was revealing the Christ—dealer of the two men. The significance of the two men emphasized at the Christmas time. The choir rendered special musical numbers for the service.
The opening service was given over to a treat of high class and appropriate Christmas music in the program of "The Christmas Song Service" which the choir managed entirely. The pastor and members, with the visitors, simply sat feasting during the hour of this musical service. The Christmas service for the Sunday school consisted chiefly in singing suitable hymns and carols; the spectral Christmas lesson for the day, and the Stocking Rush. When all the hymns and carols were finished the dimes counted, the secretaries reported the amount of $9344 for the days collection. The cantata and Christmas Tree comes off 1 Friday evening, the 26th.
The passing of the Old Year will be the theme of the pastor's sermon next Sunday. It is hoped that all members of the church and friends will be present at the services the last Sunday in the Old Year. The first Sunday in January will be Communion day. The second Sunday in January will be observed as family day by the church. The third Sunday the church will be asked to attend the church on that day as families—the whole family, as far as possible, coming and sitting together. The pastor will preach a short sermon first to the children, and then the regular sermon to the parents.

The principal soloists were Metastames Maud Windor Pearl; Morehead and Mrs. Brosnan, soprano and Mexico soprano; and Dr. James C. Waddy, bass-soprano. The execution by the members of the chorus was inlining, owing to the smoothness and harmonious blending of the different voices. With no intention of over-estimating the fact, we believe that St. Matthews Church can lay claim to some musical artists who would credit it to the Metropolitan Opera, and that you may know is going some, according to the street parlance.

Nashville, Tenn. A determination that the present unsatisfactory situation at Pike University will be cleared up is evidenced by the action of the general alumni in calling an assembling of the bosta. In New York City on January 2 and 3.
What is indicated will be the largest gathering of Fisk alumni ever seen off the university campus, is called to meet in the West 137th street X.-W. C. A. auditorium, New York City, on January 2 to form the associated Fisk Club and to take up the fight for a new, free greater Fisk. Members of the new Greater Fisk Committee appointed recently by the Board of Trustees, with representatives from all the leading Fisk clubs of the country, are expected to present. It is planned that evidence proving alleged present conditions at Fisk will be read and that resolutions pertaining to the alumni's future policy will be adopted. Following this meeting, the second member of the Fisk Herald is to be published. It is said that the authorities at Fisk have taken an oath toward correcting alleged abuse, but opponents of the present administration declare that this has been done in the face of president McKenzie's opposition, and that not nearly enough has been accomplished to restore Fisk to its wanted prestige.
According to expressions heard from various sources, the alumni are determined to leave no stone unturned in the fight they are making, and point with significance to the fact that many who at first declared the charges against the present administration to be false are now admitting the need of reform. Advice from New York, received here, state that more than fifty—alumni representing Fisk clubs in all sections of the country, and individuals as well have sent notice they will attend this meeting.

Hampton, Va.—Dr. James Hardy Dillard, president of the Joanes and Slater Boards, recently presided over a meeting in the Virginia Randolph School, which is the training school for Henrico County, located about 12 miles from Richmond.
The Jeane Memorial Dormitory, a brick building costing nearly $25,000, which will provide excellent living quarters for 24 girls, was dedicated. George Foster Peabody of New York, formally presented the dormitory to the Henrico County school board. The gift was accepted by A. C. Cooper, county superintendent of schools.
Mr. Peabody described the discovery of the simple, little Quaker lady, Anita J. Jeanes of Philadelphia, who declared to the late Dr. H. H. Friissell, principal of Hampton Institute, that her heart had gone out to the Negro cabin schools of the South. He gave some detailed information concerning the development of Miss Jeanes' interest in the so-called "schools in the background."
Built From Savings
Doctor Dillard stated that Miss Jeanes saw the bottom need in education; namely, helping children in the background. "Miss Jeanes," he said, "objected to all publicity. She did everything unobtrusively. It is fitting that somewhere in the South there should be some simple, modest remorial to Miss Jeanes. It is built, on savinga—on odds and ends of funds left over from year to year. This dormitory has been built where the work of a Jeanes teacher was first spread over an entire county."
Thirty-two years ago Virginia E. Randolph, a modest, efficient ambilithic colored woman, began her work in Henrico County in a one-room schoolhouse upon a red clay hill. Nearby was a generous white who owned a gravel pit. The new school teacher had visions which she believer she could make come true. She secured the gravel for the leveling of the school plot. She organized a group of willing workets who paid for hauling the gravel. She had rich soil"put over the gravel. She induced twelve patrons to plant one tree apiece in the school yard. "These trees," she said, "were named after the disciples All of the trees lived and flourished. The patrons were very proud, of their trees. Finally, however, 'Judas' had to be cut down to make room for a two-room addition."
Two Women's Work
The dedication of the dormitory made it possible to hear the story of what had been accomplished through the god offices of Anna T. Jeanes and Virginia E. Randolph—two women who put service to their fellow-men above personal gain or distinction. The Jeanes work for the improvement of Negro rural schools began with 65 workers. Now there are 325 Jeanes workers who are not only improving community health and sanitation, household industries, handicrafts, and elements of agriculture, but they are giving attention to securing better teachers for the schools.
Among those who took part in the dedication were Jackson Davis, who as superintendent of schools helped to spread the work in Hennico, Rev. Beverly D. Tucker, D. Henco, rector of St. Paul's Church, Richmond, who offered the opening prayer, John Stewart Bryan of Richmond, who has for many years been a friend of Negro education; W. D. Creshun of Richmond State Supervisor of Negro Schools; W. F. Grastry, president, Negro Teachers' Association of Virginia; John M. Gandy president of Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute Petersburg; James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton Institute, Dr. and Mrs. Samuel C. Mitchell of Richmond College, Mrs. B. R. Munford, president, Cooperative Education Association of Virginia, W. T. B. Williams, field secretary of the Juanes and Slater Funds; Robert R. Moton, principal, Tinkegee Institute; and F. W. Shepherdson and S. L. Smith of the Julius Rosenwald Land.

"Take the example of the automobile. At first it was thought that this invention would make communication and travel more rapid. Now cities are so congested with automobiles that it is quicker to go on foot.
"You know in New York, where streets are narrow and choked with traffic from high buildings, congestion is tremendous and proceeding by automobile is slower than walking.
"The same principles applies to the present mechanical age which will end up impairing itself.

Nashville, Tenn.—The lynching near this city Monday night December 15. of Sam Smith, Negro youth, has stirred the community as it has not been stirred in years. The whole city is fired with indignation and from all quarters come demands that the murderers be apprehended and punished. The Chamber of Commerce met Tuesday and offered a reward of $5,000 for their arrest and conviction $1,100 of the amount was subscribed on the spot and a committee was appointed to raise the balance at once.
The Rotary and Exchange Club, the Ministerial Alliance, the presidents of all the colleges, the secretaries of the Southern Methodist Mission Board, and a group of prominent business men each met and issued statements condemning the crime in unmeasured terms, and calling upon the officials to bring the perpetrators to justice. Personal statements to the same effect were given to the press by many leading citizens, including Mayor Howse, President W R. Cole of the N. C. & St. L. Railroad, Dr W. D. Weatherford and J D. Burton, chairman and secretary of the State Interracial Committee, Bishop E D Mouzon, of the Methodist Church South, the presidents of the various civic clubs, and may others.
Both daily papers are joining vigorously in the chorus of condemnation and in the demand that the law be vindicated. Smith, who had, shot and wounded a white man a few miles from Nashville, had himself been wounded, placed under arrest and sent for treatment to the general hospital here. Monday night masked men raided the hospital and took the wounded youth to the scene of the shooting. There they hanged him to a tree and riddled his body with bullets. This is the first lynching in Tennesse see since 1922 and the sixth in the past seven years.
Health Class Conducted By Harlem Tuberculosis Committee at 202 W 136th St.
They are still registering—strangely enough these little boys and girls. And they still have the privilege of voting too—not for President, of course, but for health. Already twenty-eight children who are undernourished and underweight have registered in the Nutrition Class conglobated by the Harlem Tuberculosis Committee of the New York Tuberculosis Association.
Every Thursday afternoon at 3:30, the office of the Harlem Tuberculosis Committee at 202 West 130th street is transformed into a classroom where health is taught—where the children are instructed in the ways of better living so that they may attain not only normal weight but better health.
Wednesday afternoons are devoted to the periodic physical examination which is given each boy and girl in order to ascertain what progress is being made, and also to make sure that any physical defects which may have been present, such as tonsils and adenoids, diseased teeth have been corrected.
The members of the class are given a card of health rules to study. The lesson given thereon is diligently memorized and put into practice and soon that which had at first appeared difficult has become an easy matter of good habits. Teeth are brushed both morning and night, baths are taken at least twice a week a generous amount of fresh vegetables is being eaten milk has assumed a role of great importance in the daily routine and plenty of sleep in a bedroom in his open windows is being obtained.

Preventing Pancreatitis
Lawrenceville, Va.—At the close of perhaps the most successful season of the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association in football, the official committee on championships and All-C. I. I. A. teams officially awards the championship in football for the 1924 season to Lincoln University.
Much credit is due Coach Young, his assistants, and the squad of Lincoln Lions" for the high, clean brand of football displayed during the entire season. Lincoln's record of this season is really very impressive. Of the six Association games played, Lincoln turned in decisive victories in five, with one hard fought 0-0 tie game with Virginia Union perhaps the most valuable team captain in the Association Corruthers, captain of Union, with 15 and Turner of V N 4 I with 14 votes both put up strong games all season, but could not quite match the steady yet brilliant playing of the Lions' pair of ends.
Goll of Shaw with 25 votes and Lee of Hampton with 21 votes, got the
Picks All Star Team
In picking the All-C. I. A. teams for 1924 football, the committee finds that no simple task, as in the case of picking a champion, presents itself. With all the schools of the Association, turning out high class teams, it can be easily understood just with a difficult task the committee would have in picking an All-C. I. A.队. Under the system in vogue, however, where each coach of the Association and the leading officials of this district submit a first and second team to the committee and the committee then rates the men on the basis of points, the task solves itself into more or less of a routine job.
F. A. Byrd of Lincoln, the out-standing player of the year, is the only player receiving unanimous votes from the coaches and officials and is therefore named captain and half-back of the first team. The other positions were very closely contested, and in the final selection two teams of practically equal ability were picked. Crudup and Lancaster of Lincoln, with 33 and 31 votes respectively, seemed to stand head and shoulders over the host of good ends on the different teams of the Association Crudup with his educated toe was
Dr. DuBois, Tobias and E. B. Smith To Address Alpha Men
New York with all its bustle and hurry has had its attention challenged by the preparations being made for the entertainment of the delegates and visiting members and friends of the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity who will swop down upon it December 27th to 31st for its annual convention. In addition to the Alpha Phi Alpha, delegates and members of the Delta Sigma Theta and Zeta Phi Beta Sororites will be present in New York City at that time in attendance upon their annual conventions. Already, there has been much interest around because of the fact that this will be the first time for such a large and representative number of Negro collegemen and women ever to assemble at the same time in New York City.
A local committee of Eta Chapter composed of Dr P F Anderson, W B Allison, and Aty Thomas E Dyett, estimated that not less than 1000 members of this fraternity will be in attendance at its annual convention. It is also predicted that there will be present more than 100 members of the Delta Sigma Theta and some 50 odd members of the Zeta Phi Beta Sorority.
Among the interesting features of the Alpha Phi Alpha convention will be a pilgrimage to the grave of William Hunton, the first international secretary of the *Y M C A*, of his race, at which place a short memorial service will be held and a short address given by Dr. C H Lobas, the present colored member of the International Committee of the *Y M C A*, and an honorary member of the fraternity. The public session of the convention will be held at the Abyssinian Baptist Church, Sunday afternoon, at which time an address will be delivered by Emory R. Smith field and alumni secretary of Howard University and a member of the fraternity. Other events according to the tenative program will include a游子 on Saturday evening, Open House at home of various members of the fraternity Sunday evening, reception on Monday evening, by Delta Sigma Theta Society, dance to delegates and visiting members at Renaissance Cason, Tuesday evening, and reception and dance given by Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority of New York City at the International House on Riverside Drive.

Next to this is an apparatus room, so that the gymnasium floor may be completely cleared, also there are offices and examination rooms on this floor, and on the floor below are 250 steel lockers and shower baths.
perhaps the most valuable team captain in the Association Corruthers, cupain of Union, with 15 and 15 Turner of V N 4 1 with 14 votes both put up strong games, all season, but could not quite match the steady yet brilliant playing of the Lions' pair of ends.
Goll of Shaw with 25 votes and Lee of Hampton with 21 votes get the call at the tackle positions on the first team. Both of these men were conspicuous throughout the whole season in their well-directed line play and all opponents speak with high respect of them. Barksdale of Union with 20 and Doakes of Howard with 15 points, both first-class tackles, had good-seasons, but lack the support of the first two mention-
At guard there were several strong men all playing a high brand of football and to make a selection gets to work a hardship on some Calloway of Lincoln with 20 and Alexander of Hampton with 14 votes, however, make as good a pair as one could ask for. Coleman of Hampton with 13 and Ballard of Shaw with 8 votes really deserve their position on one of the mythical teams. At center several real star performers raised have with opposing teams, displaying in general the best brand of football ever seen at this position. Morgan of Lincoln with 28 and Books of Shaw with 14 are two of the best centers the C. I. I. A has ever had. This year five real students of the gradrth, had a real battle for top honors at the hold general's position. Wheedle of Virginia Summary with 26 and Jackson of Union with 10 votes were two of the best men at

MERRY CHRISTMAS!
To the editor and to the staff which has been handling this column for these many months, and to each and ever one of the readers of The Age—no matter where they may be—I send my heartiest greetings and wish you all a very Merry Christmas.
May your New Year which shall fall in the space of a few days be prosperous. May your opportunities for service to your own souls, your kindred, and that greater body of "relatives"—not so distant either—called human, increase with the days.
Andlest prosperity also is meaning and sense because dill may your perception of the secret things which make for true happiness grow keener and brighter than the indulden or manifest stars of every night which passes over you in 1925.
Having prosperity, power for service and the master satisfaction of mind, you can meet whatever else may come to you mankind, and it shall leave you unchallenged.
And that you may not have only the Christmas and this New Year, but many many years to come, that I will in my eye and a chalkie I shall drink off I can leave this country for just a moment.
TO YOUR HEALTH! MY FRIENDS! TO YOUR HEALTH!

CABARET NEWS
plause when she returned to her table, nevertheless her escort kissed her.
Miss Edith Wickam, the lovely entertainer at The Club Cabaret, did not know what it was all about. I was waiting for her when she came to work and before removing her wrap I asked her the name of the song which she was going to feature for the week. She asked me to wait until she consulted with the orchestra leader. It seemed quite a long wait, while she and the leader were talking, but finally she returned and having taken her seat whispered in her coyish way: "He can be a nice but he don't want to be." I replied, "He is very unkind. Now, what song are you going to sing this name of my song?" Then I offered an apology.
Johnny Hawkins, late of Lucky youth Roberts vaudeville act, is the new entertainer at Happy Rhone's Club. Miss Hanna Sylvester will be the headliner at the club during the holidays, and Miss Billie Griffin is to be the added feature and a regular entertainer. It is reported that Fletcher Henderson's Orchestra will be a surprise at the Club's Sunday afternoon dances, beginning next Sunday. Miss Ganasa, Naneo is the dainty entertainer at the Orient Cafe. She is a delightful little dancer and a sweet singer. A tired business man with a daughter like her in his home would not want to go out at night. "You Are In Love With Every One" is one of her songs this week. Miss Georgiana Kelly, the prominent blues singer at Herman's Inn, has well filled the place once dominated by Lizzie Miles, who is now entertaining in Paris.
Olivia Smith, orchestra leader at Philadelphia Jimmy's Club, is the newest song writer. He has recently completed a composition entitled "Spanish Kate", which will be featured during the holidays at the club by Miss Kate Mardelle.
June Clarks and his band will furnish the holiday dance music at Smalls' Cafeteria. When they start playing jazz, a dance lover cannot make his feet behave. Miss Maude Woodson is the song bird; Miss Sis Harris the dancing doll and Johnny Davis the versatile entertainer. The foregoing is a cast that is hard to beat.
At various places in Harlem may be found entertainments extraordinary by Misses Honey Brown, Albertine Pickens, Mary Ray, Mary Stafford, Corrine Harris, Clémentine Jones, Flea Gray, Inez Wallage, Helen Lee, and others.

Amusement lovers of Gotham are not aburger for pleasure, because they have been well fed up on diversions all the year round. Space will not permit a full account of the choice programs arranged for the holidays, nevertheless, the managers of clubs and lns, supported by musicians, waiters and entertainers have done their best toward the joys of the season in delightful entertainments for the public.
The Sunkist Serenaders, having finished their work at the Forest Inn, early Christmas eve were hired to sing beneath the window of a certain Harlem debatante. While the would-be-featured stamus of "I wonder What Has Decome of Sally" the window went up and a pruss voice shouted: "Young man, this is not an information buge. You are under my daughter's bedroom window."
It actually happened in Happy Rhones' Orchestra Club. A young lady, full of Christmas cheer, felt like singing, and John Breast, the manager, granted her request. The orchestra struck up the tune and she sang, "I Can't Get The On, I Want." There was not an actual outburst of applause the quarterback's position and should be given much credit for their high class contribution
Never before has there been such a wealth of high class backs. Speed, power and brains were displayed by more backs this year than ever before. Picture the wonder "Jazz" Byrd with 35 votes, Shields of Union with 27 votes, Goodman of Lincoln with 18 votes, being worked by the versatile Wheedie Who could ask for a more effective four! Then we have Lee of Lincoln with 13, 166ffman of Union with 17, and Brown of V N I 4, with 11 votes being drawn by the old master Jackson. The backfields are well taken care of by these men, but they are not all of the good ones by far. We feel satisfied, however, with the lucky ones.

The picture produced by James Craig, in the film of *Famous 50*, other films of *The Enemy Sex*, *The Loneliness* and *Merton of the Movie* (feature Richard) Cortez, Lance Decker, Kathlyn Williams and Virginia Lee Cobbin.
"The City That Never Sleeps" is a direct, unabout from Cruze's previous pictures. It is, in fact, different from an thing, he or any other director for that matter has ever done. It's more well done—and bound to outstay.
"By the time we get at all times, says the Los Angeles Times—and you don't lose."

Entire Wardrobe Was Stolen From Apartment
When Hedrick Gohan, a ladder at 29 West 123rd street, returned from work on Saturday afternoon, December 20, he found that burglaries had entered his room through an air shaft window and taken his entire wardrobe, which included three suits of clothes, an overcoat, shoes, shirts, underwear and etc.
His young man was very much upset about what to do until friends at the local Social Club contributed them clothes, including an overcoat and added him by reporting the matter to the police of the 123rd street station.
Detectives Charged With Wantonly Insulting Young Girl Who Had Been Robbed
Miss Virginia Johnson, 19, a maid, of 201 West 134th street, returned home from noonday services at the Metro-politan Baptist Church, Tuesday, and discovered that the house had been burglarized and her room had been invaded. At 2 o'clock Wednesday morning, two detectives came to her room. Miss Johnson told a reporter of The New York Age in the presence of Mrs. Sarah Rich, lady of the house, how cowardly the two officers took advantage of her in the dead of night while she was all alone, in their attempt to brain a clue. After arousing her from her sleep, one of the officers entered and sat on the bed beside her and the other one stood in the open door while she delivered in the early morning coldness in her nighties.
They remained in her room nearly half an hour. Miss Johnson claims, and fired a volley of insulting questions some of which were "Who sleeps in this room with you?" "What have you been drinking today?" "Do you work?" "Who was the man that went out with you last night?" "Who was in your room with you yesterday?" The house that was robbed is rented by a Harlem minister whose relatives live in the building, one of whom was also robbed.
135th Street Apartment House Is Gutted By Fire
The barking of a little white pet dog at 230 a.m. in the apartment of Mrs George H. Reed, 180 West 135th street, Wednesday, saved the life of a two hours old baby and a dozen families who were trapped while sleeping in a three-alarm fire of unknown origin at 182 West 135th street.
The mother of the infant and the homeless tenants were sheltered at the A.M. C across the street. Mrs. C Richardson was carried down the ladder from the top floor by firemen.
Mrs Geneva Bennett, 3rd floor, is the mother of the baby that was born at midnight. The fire is believed to have started on the ground floor and swept to the roof completely destroying the interior of the whole building at 182, and damaged adjourning buildings. The fire escapes in the roof were practically of no service to the fire victims.
Icantans in adjoining buildings who were drawn out by smoke and water were Alexander Gray top floor cast in number 180 Andrew Ruffin, 3rd floor cast in number 182 Masses Stokes and Young, 2nd floor in 178 and Thomas Glover, 4th floor in 180
The Hyacinths Entertained
Mrs. Louis Hall was present to members of the HI Youth Social Club at her home 216 West 128th Street, on Friday evening, December 10. Mrs. Hall, who is in the interior designing and decorating business, entertained her guests in a manner which denoted that her knowledge of the home is not confined merely to its decorative features.
This was clearly home out by the learned and amusing postures that were furnished for the evening's entertainment, added to which was a delicious and delightful supper served in appropriate taste and style.

"Mushrooms" Employment Agencies.Are Now Being Investigated By Police
New complaints recently filed at the 16th Police Precinct station resulted in an order this week for the police to investigate the "mushroom" employment agencies in Harlem. During the holiday season when crooks are employing every convenient scheme to fleece the public these fake agencies have taken advantage of the misaspecting, jobless men, anth women,
Their method is to publish notices of positions on their bulletin boards outside in such a way as to catch the job hunter. The victim pays a fee and is sent to work but when he arrives at the address, the job "non est"—that is to say that the party does not need anyone or he has put an "ad" in the want column of one of the daily papers which has been answered by an hundred applicants and already filled. In some instances the employer knows nothing about a job being vacant in his place of business. People duced in that manner, after paging fees, are given an excuse and another promise of being placed in a job at an early date, but no money is refunded.
Young Couple Surprises By Marriage Announcement
Although married since Christmas Day, 1923, Miss Portia Wiley of 219 West, 1218 street, did not let her friends know that she was really Mrs G Williams Nickens until announcements to that effect were sent out on November 29, 1924, nearly a year later. The ceremony was performed in mersey City, N. J.
A reception was held Sunday afternoon, December 7, in the cozy 121st street apartment, which has been newly furnished as seen, love next. Afternoon tea was served and many carefully and beautiful gifts to the bride were given by Phyllis. Vocal Selections were rendered by Miss R Bosley, who is studying singing and also attending college here. Among the guests present was a bride of two weeks Mrs Ida Allen Bochee of West, 121st street.
Others were Dr. J. P. Roberts, Countep R. Cullen, Miss Louse Logan, Attorney Anna Jones Robinson, Mr and Mrs Turner, Mr and Mrs I. Wright, Mrs Else McDougald, and many others.
Mrs Nichols is a high school teacher in the New York public schools, and a number of the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority. She is active in church circles, and has recently been elected superintendent of the Sunday
school of Saint Mary's Church, which is now located in the old Cateary Church, edifice 129th street and 7th avenue, Mr. Nickens is a graduate of Wilberforce and Columbia Universities.
Nic Yarbrough Saves
When Imperial Lodge of Elks, No 127, gave a benefit performance at the Lafayette Theatre on the evening of December 5, for its Christmas fund to provide gifts for needy poor children of Harlem, of the most attractive features was the singing of Miss Catherine Yarborough of 200 West 136th street. The impression made by the singer on this occasion was augmented the following week at the banquet tendered Grand Daughter Ruler Laura E., Williams by the Eureka Temple at Harlest Casino. This was on December 12, and Miss Yarborough was given an invitation by her hearers.
At the Imperial Lodge auditorium, West 129th street, near Seventh avenue, last Sunday, the occasion being a musical to increase the Christmas fund, Miss Yarborough again, appeared on the program, in company with several of the leading singers of the musical comedy stage, including Ravella Hughes, Georgia Harvey, Helen Williams, and others.
Miss Yarborough is an expert make-up artist, and had charge of that work with the original Shuffle Along Co., the Runnin' Wild Co., and with several companies of white artists. While with the two race companies, she was also a member of the singing cast. She is a native of Wilmington, N. C., and has studied in Boston with Edward Boatner, the well known baritone.
Suggest Monument In Harlem In Honor Of Negroes In World War
About this time six years ago, Harlem was aglow with a splendid light for the slendid, record-breaking Negro soldiers of the World War, then ending. Since that time the war spirit has abated and nothing very tangible has been done to commemorate the alor of the black boys in France—except for one regiment, the Old Fifteenth, which was recently given a slendid new home by the City of New York. Numerous monuments have been placed about the city commemorating the herogism of white soldiers. Whenever one drives up the beautiful Grand Concourse through the Brick, he is pressed by the stately rows of shade trees lining each side of the street. Perhaps he notices a copper plate in front of each tree. On this plate is the name of some soldier, a resident of the Bronx, who paid the supreme sacrifice during the World War—as fine a monument as was ever erected for any soldier.
Then too, there are other moments about the city-parks and squares have been renamed in honor of some soldier or soldiers who distinguished themselves during that war. But in none of these places have the Negro soldiers individually or as a group been taken into consideration.
The suggestion was recently made to the Age by a white man, Alfred Offenuck, real estate and insurance broker

be arranged for, that purpose. Or that
a statue of Co., Charles Young, or some
other colored soldier, could be placed in
the triangle where St. Nicholas and Edi-
