An investigation made without was and in a spirit of justice and impartial disclosure that the管理局 contained the apology article referred to are exaggerated and in most cases without foundation in instances where there was apparent ground for complaint it does not appear that conditions it does not appear that conditions of the disagreeable character author. A fair examination would prove this, say the hospital official and this, probably have stopped the malicious charges from its public notice. The Bathroom Problem The growth of the Nurse Training School has been greater than was sought possible, and the last class, which entered on January 15, taxed dormitory capacity of the institute to its utmost. The student quarters were overflowed and the girls were assigned to another floor, where were some of the supervisory and trainec officials. Some of individually objected to the prohibition students in the quarters with supervisory but the authorities took the humanitarian stand that it was not to crowd the girls on one when there was available room another floor recognizing the principle of ennumeration in degree of standing, the principle that obtains in most educational institutions of the girls were asked to use rooms on the floor given over to student nurses, as the only the floor to which they were to be subjected by the officers. This did not disfie probationers, but some of the students, one or two of have records that show them amenable to ordinance, took umbrage and themselves a committee complaint on this score, central authorities, desiring to good will and harmony, and a point and immediately their request as to the bath made provision for the girls the bathroom in common with supervisory and administrative Color Line Separation O'Brien, superintendent of declares that there has never attempt or separate the white nurses in the use of the toilers, etc., and that this matter was not a separatance lines and close lines as between and lower officials, faculty students, journeymen workers pretences, tic ionally, said the superintendent arrows for extra duty on the student nurses.

C.—South Carolina and Washington white society and diplomatic circles are agog with gossip concerning the recent marriage of Henry W. Faison, son of the late Represensive governor of Faison, and Carolina to Miss June Nelson, a pretty colored girl of this city. A license was obtained by the bride on January 17 and it was the assumption in the license bureau that naturally the groom was colored but when the nuptial revealed an interracial marriage the groom's relatives immediately preceded the marriage to the national bonds.

Both colored and white tenants lived in the two apartments, and the Johnson brothers occupied the top floor of 178. Regardless of their own safety, the brothers saw to it that every person living on the top floors were safety out of the buildings, which were being gutted by a three-alarm fire, before they sought safety for themselves. Three colored girls, Caterine Payne, Gertrude Dopwell and Marie Sprott, living on the top floor of 176, were severely burned in having to dash down the stairs through the raging flames. The fire was caused by Dr. Miller at Beth Moses Hospital. Fifteen families lived to the street at the third alarm was sent in by Deputy Fire Chief John F. O'Hara, who feared the flames would spread to other nearby tenements. George Byrnes, janitor of both buildings, discovered the fire in the basement of 176 and summoned Patrolmen John White and John Shanahan of the Gates avenue station, who aroused the tenals, assisting many of them to safety. Some of those living on the upper floors found escape by the staircase, impossible and they went down rear fire stations. When the fire came the fire had gained considerable headway, and they fought the blaze for an hour before it was out. Families of Negroes occupied the two upper floors in both houses and most of these were compelled to descend by the fire escapes. Mrs. Pauline Carvus and her husband, Joseph, both white, assisted their twelve children, six of them very small, down the smoke filled starways and got them all to the street in safety. John Palone and, his wife, also living on the second floor at 178, helped their seven small children to the street in the saint manner.

The interiors of both tenements were destroyed, including most of the belongings of all the tenants. New York City—In a speech at a mass meeting under the auspices of the N. A. A. C. P. in the Renaissance Casino, recently, Representative Ogden L. Mills said: "When it is shown that lynchings are decreasing in number, but that from 50 to 100 these hideous crimes go unimpeded in country, so proud of its civilization, to ubiquity and its education, the fact that these crimes are decreasing, seems to me insignificant beside the fact that they occur at all."

RHODES CAPTURES A BOLD DAYLIGHT BURGLAR Uses Strategy In Catching Man Who Attempts Roof Escape After Holdup Officer Jasper Rhodes made another clever arrest Saturday when a bold day light burglar was making a clean getaway in Fifth avenue. John Lewis, 24, 2165 Fifth avenue, was taken to the 16th precinct police station by policeman Rhodes and charged with burglary. A bold daylight bold up was reported to Rhodes while he was patrolling his beat on Fifth avenue. A man had held up Benjamin Horn, 582 So, Boulevard, on the corner of 133rd street and Fifth avenue while pedestrians looked on and stood agast. The bandit forced the man to walk into an apartment house at 2190 Fifth avenue and up several flights of stairs at the point of a pistol then robbed him at $39, afterwards fleeing to the roof. When Officer Rhodes arrived on the scene quickly the reported hold up, he was at once confronted with the problem of theorizing just about how the bandit would attempt to rob Rhodes is known at headquarters for his integrity in getting his plans just right and always catching his prison, clear cut, with the goods. Arriving at 2190 Fifth avenue where the hold up was reported, officer Rhodes noticed that the adjoining building with an entrance around the corner at No.1 West 133rd street both were of the same height. Rhode's strategy was to conceal himself in the entrance of the adjoining building near the staircase, believing that the hold up man would naturally attempt an exit other than the door he entered with his quarry. True to the policemen's wise judgement he did not have lone goat wait before he saw a man sneaking down the staircase. The man was halted, searched and a piston taken off him but no money was found. At the West 133th street police station, Officer Josper Rhodes, was millioned with much credit for his clever arrest. Jealous Husband Wounds Chauffeur Argument Over Alleged Intimacy of Wife and Friends Ends In Shooting Two chauffeurs had an argument in the garage at 1015 Boston Road, The Bronx, Saturday, January 24, which resulted in a shooting affair, sending one to the Lincoln Hospital and another to jail. The trouble started Friday when Joseph Rumbler, 24, chauffeur. 126 West 127th street called at the house of Edward Robinson, 22, chauffeur. 258 West 124th street. It is reported that Rumbler accused Robinson of undue familiarity with his wife which Robinson denied. Rumbler still having an ill feeling for Robinson, renewed his accusation when the two of them met in the garage on the following day. An argument followed and Robinson brought a pistol into play, shooting Rumbler in the hip. He was taken to the Lincoln Hospital where physicians stated that there were chances, for his early recovery. When Robinson was tried in the Morrisania Court before Judge Smith, he was found guilty of charges and held in $2,500 bail for the Special Sessions. Robinson pleaded guilty of carrying a concealed weapon and his bail was fixed at $500, the rest of the bail was for assault. Life Shielding from Enraged Husband Untrue, Stevedore Fires Twice Mother Who Stepped Be-event Tragedy As words passed between the couple, the man became heated and working up to a frenzied state, rushed into his bed room and came out again with a revolver which he pointed at his wife and snapped twice. The first shot went wild and the wife swooned from excitement, but the mother stepped forward to stay the hand of her daughter's assailant. Just as the mother stepped in between the man and his wife, Winkler fired a second time and the bullet struck Mrs Street in the abdomen. The wounded woman was taken to the Harlem Hospital where it is doubtful. A chance to recover Winkler is being sought by the police. Home life among Harleinites who are devotees of the "numbers" game is sadly, demoralized according to the declaration of a man familiar with the workings of this gambling medium from its beginning many years ago, when it was known as "Bolita," and was played exclusively by the Spanish speaking workers in cigar and tobacco factories of Greater New York. The extent to which individuals go in their craze to make a big winning is partly evidenced by means used to finance their operations. Men and women have been known to ace the pawn shops and pledge the clothing for sums sufficient to allow them to play a "number" which they believed would bring them fortune. $12 a Day Income, Borrows 50 Cents A concrete case is that of a woman engaged, in business activities that bring her in an average daily income of at least $12. She became addicted to playing the "numbers," the results being that she was carried by the lure and attraction of the game into serious financial difficulties. She is resigned as having called a mately annuity with her financial standing, to come across the street and speak to her. When he complied, she requested the loan of fifty cents. Thinking it was a case of not caring to walk back upstairs for a forgotten purse, or an unexpected need that has arisen, he quickly ran his hand in his pocket and produced the required coin. As she took it, she said, "Thanks very much; now I will be able to make my regular play on the computer." The man was prised, and being imprisoned, he permitted his surprise to show itself in his caculation, "Well, if I'd known that was what you wanted it for you never would have gotten it." First Played With Balls According to well-authenticated information, the game in its original form was played with numbered balls and was brought here direct from Cuba and other Spanish speaking countries after the laws of the United States had outlawed the old Louisiana lottery. It was known then as Bolita through fear of the law, the murder, the abuse, the outsiders were not given chance to get into the game. Hundreds of these men were employed as cigar makers and in other capacities in the large tobacco factories and warehouses located here, and on Mondays and Saturdays they would be given a chance to indulge this gaming fever. Small balls, the size of a child's marbles, numbered in sequence from 1 to 100, were placed in a bag by the banker, and chances were sold at $1 for each usually a small child, an uninsured from the office staff, would be called in to draw a numbered ball from the bag, and the holder of that number would win the prize. At first, the banker only retained 10 per cent, the prize being $90, but later, the banker's percentage was increased to 20, thus reducing the prize to $80. Even this game, fair as it looks, was subject to manipulation. For it was possible, when desired by the banker, to work in an instructed capacity and a skillful palming of a duplicate ball bearing a particularly wanted number meant the winning of the prize by the banker himself or a confederate. Bribed Market Workers Later, the game took a different shape and manner of operation. As series of cards were issued, numbered consecutively, and these numbered cards were sold at 25 cents each. The winning card was the one bearing whatever number was contained in the thousand column of the sales of stocks and bonds as reported in the New York Sun, at that time a morning newspaper. If the card bored the two final digits, it was a "bolita" of $2, or 8 to 1. But if the three digits were identical, the prize was $25, on the basis of 100 to 1. Cheating developed in this phase of the game when it was discovered that interested parties had succeeded in bribing persons who handled the reports to make certain advised changes in the numbers before the reports were printed. This brought another change to the present method, which is based on the report made daily by the Clearing House, shipping, exchanges and balances, like winning number is made tip by taking the last, two figures from the million, column of, the exchanges and balances, and the third, column of, the balances. The "bolta" is retained also, in this form, being the final two figures as in the previous game. First Banker Is In Spain "The first banker to operate, according to information, received, was Guban, Carnalmis, who monopolized the game. He gained a large fortune through the game, and retained some years ago, going to Spain fifteen. He visited the United States about two years ago, and was asked by some of his friends if he intended to resume his activities in the game. His reply, in Spanish idiom, perhaps reproduced when he offered: "We played when I played the game, that virgin was a lady. Now she has become a wanton." Catalina was here to buy some automobiles, and when he had concluded that transaction, he returned to Sunny Spain, where he basks in the soft sand, living off the fruits of his gains from fellow but foolish compatriots. Present day day operators, following in Catalina's footsteps, are not having the monopoly on computing, a conspicuous of the present day Spanish speaking gentry operating as bankers, and he is one of the most prosperous. Another banker, Diamond, raided by police a few weeks ago, was found to be operating systematically, apply modern software, and latest Model labulating machines, expert stenographers, typewriters, etc., made up his office equipment. Leave Town, Don't Pay But behind all of the operations of the bankers, kept as an emergency reserve, is one thing that serves as a last resort in case of being heavily hit—the resort of disappearing for a few days and falling to "pay off." In most cases, the players only show the deceased, and only show the banker's dropping out of sight is made easier or by that fact. At tradey or by comedy, according to the point of view, was enacted last Saturday when a group of players who had put in skips on a "number" which happened to come out that day were unable of collect William West 133th street was known to them as the individual to whom they looked, for results and it their opinion that he was the banker himself Williams ran afoul of the incensed group, and became a sacrifice, unwillingly enough, upon the altar of their vengeance. He was severely beaten and his pockets were thoroughly examined in the case that some of their winnings to which they were entitled might be found. But Williams was only the collector, working on a percentage commission, and his pockets yielded only 7 cents. The players realized their mistake, but it was too late to save Williams into serious physical suffering and discomfort. A Harlem physician, Dr. William F. Davis, of 203 West 136th street, is named by the familiar with the situation as an alleged banker in the number 1444, and it is asserted that so far he has had a most prosperous experience. Banker Has 40% Velvet The enormous odds of 600 to one, given to the players, is really a matter of small moment to the bankers, say those who are wise to the workings of the game, as the banker has a clean rake off in the very beginning of 40 per cent, as the 600 to one is really paid on a minimum collection of 1000. The explanation is that the basis of operation is from one to one thousand, at one cent to each number giving $10 in hand. The winning player gets 600 to 1, but this is subject to a 10 per cent, out, extensibility to the runner or collector, bringing the winner's share to $40 instead of $0. In the meantime, the banker has prefitted his clear $15 to the number coming in, and is on velvet, regardless as to how the "numbers" run. Over in Jersey City the police of that city raided a Pacific avenue barber shop and restaurant, arresting the barber and a woman who ran the eating place when they were found writing skirts for ten customers who were playing a "numberbers" game. The skill of stealing and bonds as reported daily in the Wall Street Journal. The odds were much less than the New York City player got, as the winner was said to be paid only 5% if his chosen number came out. One player was repurposed to have played a combination containing the figures, 77 through 100, another dust, and he is said to be still playing the changes on this group. Jersey City "Numbers" Players Raided By Cops Talk About N. Y. Judge An innocent looking combination tailor shop, barber shop and restaurant at 456 Pacific avenue, Jersey City, N.J. was raided last week as a "policy" gambling house by Captain Edward J. O'Connor of the Community puppy avocet station and his men, and ten persons rounded up in the raid. The proprietors, John Morgan, whose tailor and barber and Mrs Mary Coleman, restaurant proprietor, stand charged with conducting a lotta while four women and six men-early customers at the place are being held for aiding and abetting a lotta. How long the place has been in operation is not known but it is believed the property opened here about the time the New York campaign was recently undertaken when a number of such policy places were raided. The proprietors this morning upon questioning by the police said that Judge Rosalala had thrown out all such cases that came before him. The local police have started an investigation of their own to connect up the Jersey City opera tours with the New York Opera (O) on the rail to it.

Present leaders must increase their vote totals mightily if they wish to "finish in the money." As may be seen by glancing at the vote totals below all the leading candidates are entirely too close to be safe, so developments are bound to happen. It is in you to win if you will. This is the final test. These are the days that test your resourcefulness. Here is where your courage upholds you and makes you fight, or the lack of it takes the stiffness out of your knees and leaves you trailing in the dust—an "also ran." Sometimes too, your supreme courages urges youotion, even when you tire, but that is the gamest fight of all. Hampton Club of N. Y. Hears Speeches From Dr. J. E. Gregg and W. J.

The time to succeed is when others, discouraged, show traces of tire. The battle is fought on the "home stretch" And won—twix the flag and the wire! Votes will pile up rapidly during the next five days; this is, while the "Second Period" schedule is in effect. The liveliest part of the competition is now at hand, and while all the competitors are on exactly the same footing, at the same time those who want to—and WILL—are afforded the opportunity of the contest to forge ahead and coral the winning votes. "Second Period" Votes Count Big During the "second period" now an effect, subscriptions still count big. In fact, they count almost as many now as during the "first period" just closed. For example. After Tuesday, February 3rd, the credits will be reduced on subscriptions so that a subscription for one year will be worth 1,000 credits, two years 4,000 instead of 6,000 as it is now. It is impossible to over-estimate the importance of these last few days. To some it will mean almost too. To other club members who fail to take advantage of the opportunity it will mean defeat.

Dr James F. Gregg, principal of Hampton and Dr William Jay Scheffeln, a trustee of both Hampton and Tuskegee were the principal speakers. A large congregation in New York for some of their directing the $5,000,000 endowment drive for Hampton and Tuskegee praised General Armstrong for his vision declaring that the Hampton founder forewax the time when secondary training would not be sufficient for the Negro and HUNGRY MAN STEALS STUFFED SQUIRREL WHICH HE CAN'T EAT Smashes Window of Fur Shop And Takes Coat, But Cop Takes Him In Charge William Page 10, 300 West 21st street was hungry Tuesday night and was out of a job and out of doors in the snow drift.

He looked into the display window at the warm fur coaters and one matty squirrel skin valued at $110 appraised to his taste not for food, but expensive wearing apparel and Page saw a chance of turning a stolen coat into quick money.

As they watch the reports from week to week and compare the abiding of the several contestants, the interest increases, until expectations reach a feverish height before the next issue is in the mail. Publicity For Community. Many communities have grown enthusiastic over the kind of publicity and representation they receive in our papers. "is just what we need in New York" they say out at East New York One subscriber in another place says "We take a lot of colored papers, but this is the one every member of the family reads first." An elderly lady at Chicago says she used to live in New York and likes to read about the people and And so so delightful expressions are coming from the colored reading public to us daily expressing the value and appreciation of the public in general of The New York Age. The standings of the candidates will probably change before the end of the period. Some may have a poor streak of luck this week but come up strong at the close of the period. It all depends on the persistence and the determination with which the contestants go to it, and the help of their friends. Until the last day there is one candidate who has the list to come in first, although for the time being standing may not be as good as some others. And so, again, we ask our readers to do everything they can to help the candidate they favor. Special Notice Next Tuesday is the close of the "second period" and posttestants are urged to get in every subscription by 9 o'clock Tuesday night, February 3, before the big drop in credits goes into effect.

He told of the advanced courses now being offered and of the splendid opportunities, for teachers of agriculture under the U.S. Department of Agriculture and as county training teachers in the South. Dr Schieffelm spoki more of the endowment drive and urged the Hampton graduates and then friends to take their financial support. Other sibtir addresses were made by Mrs Elizabeth Michael, who was mistress of ceremonies and by Malcolm Dillard, president of the club. Mrs Irel Hicks rendered a solo and several selections were furnished by the Hampton quartet. Just a little squirrel, chief The officer pulled the man's overcoat and took out the squirrel in the form of a warm wrap for madam or maid. I told the truth, but where did you get it and how come? asked the officer. "You see, chief, I was hungry, so I simply smashed a shop window and took the squirrel because I wanted something to cat." Was Page's concern. Then the policeman just to prove that his heart was in the right place took Page to the police precinct where he could get something to cat. Hampton Senior Class Unveils Motto Tablet --- Hampton Va. - The Senior Class of Hampton Institute recently unveiled its class motto "We Base Our Lives on Love Truth and Justice" Maurice L. Adams of Connington, Va. who has served as president of the class for three years, spoke on behalf of the members of the 1925 class. He referred to the rising standards of Negro athletics throughout the country. He told the story of the struggle of Califon for the truth in spite of his hometown. He said he was trained in athletics at the Califon Institute and in the Chinese education in American education after the lower minority had been waived. America's act of loyuqingpindness toward China helped the immigrant cause and advanced American civilization to the L.A. East. he said. By WM. ANTHONY AERY Hampton, Va.-W. D. Gresham off Richmond, State Supervisor of Negro Education, spoke at a general assembly of Hampton Institute work ers and students, which was held in Ogden Hall, on "Some Problems of Negro Education in Virginia." In 1920, according to Mr. Gresham Virginia had approximately 225,000 colored children of school age (7 to 20 years). Of this number there were enrolled in the public schools, last year 157,413. The average attendance was 110,799, about 70 per cent. Virginia there are 3,572 colored teachers, of, whom 3,100 are women and only 472 are men. In Virginia there are 1,945 school buildings for colored children, with 3,514 rooms and an average of 44 papires per room. teacher colored schools and teacher school. The movement ward consolidating these schools and building 3, 4, 5, and room schools. The average length term in all colored schools is 144 days or 7 to 5 months. There are no months and there are only 2 counties in State where the term is just five months. County Training Schools During the present school year there are in Virginia for colored boys and girls 31 county training schools with 193 teachers. Eight of these schools have a term of months and have a term of months and 22 have a term of 8 months each. The enrollment in these schools is 6845 (3001 boys and 3844 girls). While these schools do not yet rank as high schools there is one county training school which is about to qualify as an accredited four-year high school. This is the "Virginia Randolph School," in Henrico County, which is a few miles out of Richmond. One of the county training schools is a junior high school. It is located at Harrisonburg in Rockingham County. The standard is the same for colored as for white high schools, and the certificates for colored teachers are the same as for white. In the county training schools there are, above, the seventh grade, pupils, 729 girls and 260 boys Work of Jeanes Teachers In Virginia there are at work 58 Jeanes industrial supervising teachers (4 men and 54 women). These teachers receive an average salary of approximately $100 per year. The income for salaries follows from State funds, $17,000, Jeanes Fund, $16,250, and local funds, $13,050. These men and women go in and out among the colored homes and schools and help in every possible way to improve community life. Julius Rosenwald, a Chicago millionaire, during the recent years has given about $300,000 for the building of colorized schools throughout the Southern States. This year $40,000 are being spent in Virginia for this type of school. Up to January 1 Mr Rosewald had, helped to build 2000 schools for colored children. North Carolina ranks first with 400 Rosewald schools. Virginia ranks fifth with 220 schools. This year's program in Virginia calls for about 45 schools. The Rosenwald schools in Virginia which have cost over $850,000 have been paid for as follows colored people have given $235,249 or 27 per cent; Rosenwald Fund $141,700 or 16 per cent, the white people $15,808, a little over 1 per cent; and local funds, $460,803 or 50 per cent. Last year, 2,045 colored teachers or 10 per cent attended the four Virginia summer schools, including Hampton Instit Educational Needs Mr Gresham outlined the following educational needs for Negroes better schools faculties, longer terms; sheter buildings, more high schools; another state normal school and above everything else, more and better teachers. Mr Gresham said the colored people of Virginia more intelligent and conquered leadership, more faith and trust in one mother, greater recognition of the true value of team work, special and use of the advantages which they already have, and a realization of the true value of education. "What we all need white and colored alike," said Mr Gresham, "is a greater interest in another. We should judge a little more closely. We should not judge a whole class by the acts of a few individuals. There are good white people and there are good colored people. We must hold high the light and let it shine into the dark places where there is ignorance and gloom and sorrow."

D. W. Wisher, one of the oldest Baptist ministers in the North, and the founder of Mt Olivet Baptist Church, New York City, died on Saturday, January 21, at the Sunnimil N. J. Hospital, following a jingering illness. Federal services were held privately on Wednesday night, and at the Fountain Baptist Church, Summit, on Thursday in fronting with the Rev William P. Hayes, the past pastor of Mt Olivet Church, officiating. Ministers and other friends from all sections of New Jersey and New York were present and the large number of floral tributes and telegrams of sympathy testified to the deceased. All were held by those who knew him for more than a generation as a minister and friend. Rev. Wisher was born in Richmond, Va., about 70 years ago, coming north as a young man, he judged for the ministry, and in airtime occupied a leading place in the church of his adopted nation. For a time he pastored small churches in the vicinity of New York and nearly forty years ago he established the Mt. Olivet Baptist when rapidly grew into one of the largest colored churches in New York City. After teaching at Ma. Olivet for number of years, he resigned about 90 and was succeeded by the late C. T. Walker of Augusta, Ga. Rev Wisher then founded the Baptist Temple, now located in Harlem but later he moved to New Jersey where he pastored churches in several northern New Jersey cities. He was pastor of the Fountain Baptist Church at Summit at the time of his death, and was a member of the faculty of the Northern Baptist University, a theological school, which was recently started in Railway, N.

It happened that F. L. Hurley, pain- ing instructor at the institution, selected a car that had been stored away in the garage for some time and started to the city. The car had passed two inspectors when these seemed to be some disturbance under the hood. Mr. Hurley stopped the car to locate the trouble and found a colored man astride the motor who became restless as the engine gen- erated heat. The escaping prisoner found relief back behind the prison walls. WHY NOT GET THE BEST? When It Costs No More Broadway AUTO School BENJANIN F. THOMAS.

JANUARY, 31, 1925 UNREST IN VIRGIN ISLANDS The United States is not altogether happy in its new role as an imperialistic power, enforcing its rule upon the unhappy natives of Haiti and other islands of the Caribbean Sea. The latest demonstration of unrest and protest against the rule of the marines and the machine gun comes from St. Thomas, one of the Virgin Islands acquired by purchase from Denmark a few years ago. This protest is given in the form of a news release from the Imaginator, a small news sheet published at St. Thomas, which carries at its masthead the following statement attributed to Arthur Burlane: The United States is not altogether happy in its new role as an imperialistic power, enforcing its rule upon the unhappy natives of Haiti and other islands of the Caribbean Sea. The latest demonstration of unrest and protest against the rule of the marines and the machine gun comes from St. Thomas, one of the Virgin Islands acquired by purchase from Denmark a few years ago. This protest is given in the form of a news release from the Emancipator, a small news sheet published at St. Thomas, which carries at its head the following statement attributed to Arthur Butlane: "Not popular with those in office who dislike it and are not valued to the people, is the one who tells the truth, remembering that the man of a kind man, not an autocrat."

The result is told in the news release under date of January 24. An appeal from the decision of the District Court of the Virgin Islands of the United States, continuing Ruthschild Francis, on a charge of criminal libel trial without jury was filed today. An interesting feature of the trial was the sitting on the bench on the left hand side of Judge Wade in William, himself a Marylander. He ordered the enemy of Rothschild Finn to be by his writings in "Current Houses," 1924, and "The Mail News," a newspaper published in St. Thomas, Virgin Islands, for January 19th, 26th and March 1, 1924 of Mr. Hamilton Owen, editor of "The Baltimore Sun." There is a question in the mind of the people as to whether this is a departure from the regular and prescribed court procedure. The temper of the people has been aroused by this last action of the powers that be' and concerted action for a New Organic Act is now in root, with a view to make a change of the present un-American system of government. It is contemplated to send a delegation to Congress for this purpose. On once there may have been ample front, for the conviction of Mr Francis on the charge against him but the method and manner of his trial do not invite confidence in the impartiality of the procedure adopted. It is significant of the American imperialists that their efforts in Haiti, as in Nicaragua and now in the Virgin Islands, have always been directed toward the suppression of the independent native press. In Port au Prince we were told that the officials of the American occupation had a cell four feet square specially constructed for one obstreperous editor who persisted in his campaign for independence in Nicaragua the marines demolished the office and plant of one paper, which criticised the conduct of the American invaders. Compensation was later paid by this government but that was only an admission of the lawless acts of the invaders. In invading the smaller countries to the south and seeking to make them over for their own good and for the greater emolument of American capital, this government has not been altogether happy in its choice of instruments. It is not a task, however, that would appeal to men of high standards in the way that it has been gone about, which is perhaps the reason why it has been done to such a brutal manner. Despite Secretary Hughes, anger building in the facts the story of the American occupation of Haiti and other Latin American republics is a sorry and tedious tale.

POSIT OF THE WHITE SOUTH The post of the white Southerner of every grade was never more dettly depicted than in a pen sketch by He wooed Brian a short while ago in his column published in the New York World. Describing the progress of the town which was carrying him past the south Carolina vamps, the Northern visitor cortezed he was a little moved by "the murray North pride of the Southern white." He told how the white native rears his house on suit-gate to hold in the mud and exsands by chest in the short to convince himself that theagle a little slamp he is among the most prosper of the creator. The writer The post on the white Southerner of every grade was never more dettly depicted than in a pen sketch by He wooled Brown a short while ago in his column published in the New York World. Describing the progress of the train which was carrying him past the South Carolina vamps, the Northern visitor cornered he was a little moved by "the furious North pride of the Southern white." He told how the white matte rears his house on stilt, grips a toehold in the mud and expands his chest in the short to consume himself that though a little damp he is among the most proper of the creator. The writer for the first time to try to spray the house of the North. Norwegian comes mostly from the black, the whites are from indent upon hold in the house and the light of superiors in the great west star. Caucasian a bit more burning from some quarter of the house without or without I did not know in white man the dread swamp that I had seen in the house. Norwegian is not quite the rugged I am a kind of aggressive outfit on these folk. The war is then now the best of the wars and probably the appearance of a tangible foe would bring nothing but elation. It is the constant menace of apparitions which caps their vitality. For to them comes no rest. Always the watch fires burn within them. Being a member of a superior race is trying business. Conviction must ring oyer in the cars and so they move about, these haleaguered Nordics, tolling the bell, straining at the rope, panting, sweating, aching in back and shoulders. Nothing much comes to the world from these people along the rain-swept fringe. They have no time for other tasks, for their job is to carry the white man's burden and be dominant. Some day, I hope, there will come a voice out of a burning bush, a small voice saying, "There, there, don't freet my little mem. Cease from strolling. You are superior." Not till then will peace sit in the hearts of these foundered Nordics. This description of the obsession of fear and hatred which possesses the whites of the south coincides with some observations made by Frank Tannenbaum, in his study "Darker Phases of the South," which was reviewed in The Age several months ago. Mr. Tannenbaum declared that fear was the strongest element at the bottom of the race problem in the South. The fear of the whites was ascribed as the cause for their hatred and oppression of the blacks. The comedy as suggested in the book was for the white South to find a new object for fear of hatred. An influx of some foreign element of labor or colonization such as the introduction of Mexicans as workers in the cotton fields of Louisiana and Mississippi or the coming of Europeans as truck gardeners, might create the necessary diversion. That this underlying fear of the black man is a smoldering sentiment, given to unexpected and unwarranted explosions of violence, was shown in a recent occurrence reported from a backwoods town in Mississippi. A revival was being held at the Negro church in this settlement and a lay speaker was assisting the pastor in his services. The layman evidently was enlisted for his power of oratory and he was assigned the task of shorting the congregation to repentance. In his talk he used the familiar exhortation of the revivalist, to put on the full armor of righteousness. Two little white boys who were peeking in at the revival heard the phrase and went back to their homes and told their parents that the speaker at the church was advising the Negroes "to arm themselves". Of course this was interpreted as an attempt to determinate the whites and a lynching parlor soon kidnapped the unfortunate speaker and carried him off to the woods bound andugged. Before lynching him, however, it was suggested by some unusual freak of the mob, that he be given a chance to speak before he was sent to eternity. His explanation was so convincing that the men who were ready to lynch him before not only released him unharmed, but raised a collection of fifty dollars as a balm for his wounded feelings. How can a case like this be accounted for except on the theory that fear had engendered a feeling of hatred that did not hesitate to murder. And yet this hatred was not personal, but rather impersonal in that it picked up victim as a type of the destroyer that their war had created. The fact is that the whiteouth is haunted by the fear of retribution for the years of oppression and injustice that has practised upon the blacks. Despite the fact that a little kindness and a modicum justice can wipe out the debt of years, the south continues to hug the phantom of fear its breast. That is part of the price the oppressor must pay. MISREPRESENTED BY THE FILMS A speaker before the Woman's Conference in the Cause and Cure of War, held in Washington last week, took occasion to describe the international trade in motion pictures as "one of the truly great contributions toward mutual understanding, acquaintance, and therefore peace." He claimed that the better types of pictures now going abroad are performing a helpful service in clearing away distorted ideas as to the manners and customs of other people. The New York Herald Tribune does not agree with this view of the matter. It conceived that, unfortunately, it is not by the better types of pictures that Americans are judged in Europe. A far different type enjoys greater popularity there and consistently distorted ideas of our manners and customs still prevail in London, Paris and elsewhere. The unhyphenated champion of America's fair fame abroad further elaborated its plea for fair play and fair films, as follows: This description of the obsession of fear and hatred which possesses the whites of the South coincides with some observations made by Frank Tannenbaum, in his study of "Darker Phases of the South," which was reviewed in The Age several months ago. Mr. Tannenbaum declared that fear was the strongest element at the bottom of the race problem in the South.

That this underlying fear of the black man is a smoldering sentiment, given to unexpected and unwarranted explosions of violence, was shown in a recent occurrence reported from a backwoods town in Mississippi. A revival was being held at the Segro church in this settlement and a lay speaker was assisting the pastor in his services. The layman evidently was enhusted for his power of oratory and he was assigned the task of exhorting the congregation to repentance. In his talk he used the familiar exhortation of the revivalist, to put on the full armor of righteousness. Two little white boys who were peeking in at the revival heard the phrase and went back to their homes and told their parents that the speaker at the church was advising the Negroes "to arm themselves". Of course this was interpreted as an attempt to exterminate the whites and a lynching party soon kidnapped the unfortunate speaker and carried him off to the woods bound and gagged. Before lynching him, however, it was suggested by some unusual freak of the mob, that he be given a chance to speak before he was sent to eternity. His explanation was so convincing that the men who were ready to lynch him before not only released him unharmed, but raised a collection of fifty dollars as a balm for his wounded feelings. How can a case like this be accounted for except on the theory that fear had engendered a feeling of hatred that did not hesitate at murder. And yet this hatred was not personal, but rather impersonal in that it picked its victim as a type of the destroyer that their fear had created. The fact is that the white South is haunted by the fear of retribution for the years of oppression and injustice that it has practised upon the blacks. Despite the fact that a little kindness and a modicum of justice can wipe out the debt of years, the South continues to hug the phantom of fear to its breast. That is part of the price the oppressor must pay. MISREPRESENTED BY THE FILMS A speaker before the Woman's Conference on the Cause and Cure of War, held in Washington last week, took occasion to describe the international trade in motion pictures as "one of the truly great contributions toward mutual understanding, acquaintance, and therefore peace." He claimed that the better types of pictures now going abroad are performing a helpful service in clearing away distorted ideas as to the manners and customs of other people. The New York Herald Tribune does not agree with this view of the matter. It contended that, unfortunately, it is not by the better types of pictures that Americans are judged in Europe. A far different type enjoys greater popularity there and consequently distorted ideas of our manner and customs still prevail in London, Paris and elsewhere. The unhyphenated champion of America's fair fame abroad further elaborated its plea for fair play and fair films, as follows: To the average Erton and Gaul life in America consists of horse play or murder under the equestrian. On this side of the water we make allowances for the imagination of the scenario water and the thrill-lust of the producer. Being a more or less traveled people, we know that the West is wild only on the screen and that little wanton children seldom overturn buckets of coal tar on passing policemen. But too many foreigner look on the film we start at a glum reflection of our national activities and have come to regard us of late with a mixture of horror and scorn. Not until our motion pictures really depict our manners and customs will they be likely to awaken adoration for America and its people in the alien mind. And there is no present indication of any purpose to make them anything but caricatures. It is a trifle singular to find this kind of complaint proceeding from such a source, as the misrepresentation of character and customs in film plays was supposed to be neatly directed against the Negro as an element in American life. The Negro press and It is a trifle singular to find this kind of complaint proceeding from such a source, as the misrepresentation of character and customs in film plays was supposed to be closely directed against the Negro as an element in American life. The Negro press and people have fought for many years such vile Southern propaganda and misrepresentation of history as have been staged in The Birth of a Nation and other film plays, without the expression of sympathy or the proffer of aid by such conservative papers as the Herald Tribune. Now, we find that staid combination of two discordant elements raising its voice in protest against a minor degree of misrepresentation. While the features of horseplay and murder may figure too prominently in the films sent abroad, it cannot be denied that these diversions are not a rarity in American life. There is far more foundation in fact for this kind of film than for the sort that is produced for the purpose of Southern propaganda, and is exhibited to promote racial hatred and to foment internal strife. The Herald Tribune, like most essayists at censorship, strains at a gnat while swallowing the camel whole. It may be that the horror and scorn, with which Americans are regarded by foreigners, according to the plaint of the Herald Tribune, may be due to more substantial causes than film representations of the throwing of custard pies alternated with the firing of sixshooters. FUTURE OF LINCOLN HOME Considerable discussion has been around the public print over the projected talk by the city of the Lincoln Hospital, presumably the nurses training school located in connection with that institution, most of the city officials who have expressed themselves on the subject, favor the position, because of the need for this hospital, the Bronx, with the extensive ambulance service that it renders. The only object used to the project seems to come from the mayor Hylan, with the prospect that he must be convinced of the necessity of the institution. The Lincoln Home and Hospital is an institution of long standing, that was formed in the neighborhood of Sixth Street. It was a private institution founded by white philanthropists for the relief of sick and aged of the colored race. With removal to the site located at 141st street and Concord avenue in the Bronx, its construction was greatly improved. The plot ground covered two city blocks and buildings erected for its service were at a period most commodious and fitted with modern equipment. The need for hospital service in that town brought many white patients to share the benefits of medical and surgical care which were largely extended through the establishment of an ambulance service. Burden of carrying on this institution probably became too great for its founders, their successors, many of whom had passed away, hence the reason for putting it in city control. Should this proposition be carried so far as it affects the hospital training school, the question arises as that disposition will be made of the hospital part of the institution in past years, moved an asylum for many of the aged, diligent members of the race who have other refuge. A number of the colonies have interested themselves in maintenance of the home to an appreciable extent by making periodical visits to the states and donating certain articles for the comfort. No mention has been made of include the home department in the taking over the institution by the city, nor has any question been made as to any provision for future conduct. It would be interesting from the officials who have the power under consideration, both on the part of the hospital and the city whether the heirs have been included in their plans.

SECRETARY SLEMP'S RECORD With the retirement of Mr. C Bassump as Secretary to the President, it seemed to put on record our unbiased opinion the manner in which he acquitted him the duties of a difficult and tryingion. When he was named for the place Age, like other representatives of old opinion, felt that a mistake had hade, which would tend to embarrass With the retirement of Mr. C Bascom Slemp as Secretary to the President, it seems fitting to put on record our unbiased opinion of the manner in which he acquitted himself of the duties of a difficult and trying position. When he was named for the place, The Age, like other representatives of racial opinion, felt that a mistake had been made, which would tend to embarrass the administration and work to the political detriment of the race. In this we were agreeably surprised. Despite the fact that Mr. Slemp went into office with the reputation of having aided and abetted the Lilywhite movement in Virginia, which succeeded in driving the colored voters of that State into the nomination of a separate Republican, State ticket and divide the party vote into two parts, he apparently adopted a new policy in his new position. He not only facilitated the efforts of the Negro delegations that visited Washington from time to time in securing interviews with the President, but he did more than this. He used his influence not only to secure them a fair hearing, but did what lay in his power to further their requests. In the contest over the appointment of Walter Cohen to an important Federal position at New Orleans, Mr. Slemp was constant in his advocacy of his candidacy. The appointment of a commission of colored men to visit and investigate conditions in the Vir- Comments By The Age Editors On Sayings of Other Editors gin Islands was another project in which his support was felt. His attable and courteous demeanor in receiving callers contributed to put them at ease and did much to dispel the opinions formerly conceived as to his unfriendly attitude. Whatever may have been Mr. Slemp's, former attitude toward the politiciel status of the race in Virginia, it is only fair to say that he put that phase of his career behind him when he entered the White House as an able to According to the Asheville, N. C. Enterprised, "the twenty-ninth annual Klodd Hoppers hall of A & T College eclipsed, beyond a shadow of a doubt, all other social functions of the holidays." The "History of Klodd Heper" was a feature of the program. With this social precedent, we may next expect the Hobos reception and the Yeggs revue. The People's Recorder and the Southern Indicator of Columbia, S. C. have combined their resources, with the intent to form a stronger agency, for news and effect progressive co-operation in its publication. The appearance of a new race weekly is also announced at Columbia, the Palmetto Leader, to be edited by Attorney N. J. Fredrick. This indicates unvented activity in South Carolina journalism. Under the headline of "The Flask and the Revolver, or How America Deals with Crime," the Louisville Leader showed up the inconsistences of law enforcement, in the following fashion. America is peculiar. She gags atgnats, and swallows camels. Of course making whiskey, good or bad, and getting drunk and raising hullabaloo are matters not to be regarded lightly, but there are lots of things much worse indeed than a tippy man befouling the pavement or scaring timid women, as he tries to negotiate a straight block in nine cases out to ten unwilling and unable to harm anybody. Now The Leader does not even excuse tiplers and sets by quoting in their favor. The Pauline dictum Take a little wine for the stomach's sake. Last of all would it preach or even suggest opposition to the Constitution of the United States. The Constitution, right or wrong. But what we condemn as wrong and unwise and unprofitable is the everlasting whaling away at little sins. The lambasting of small criminals while the big ones sit and chuckle in glee over the immunity they enjoy. The big criminals in America are Daniels who now come to judgment. To enforce its pact the Leader quoted the crime record of two of the greatest European nations as compared with this country, namely, "Germany has four murders per million of inhabitants, Great Britain, eight per million, the United States, one hundred and eighteen per million." The Florida Sentuel asserts that the statistics for 1924 showed that crime had not decreased to any appreciable extent and that the court records showed lack of adequate punishment for the crimes committed. Continuing it said Of the large number of murders which happened last year few arays of the perpetrator were punished. On one man a Negro who shot a white man was electorsured. We will always believe firmly that as long as the law is law and that when criminals can hope to get out of their trouble with light sentences and not be given a full measure of punishment they will always take chances. The law should not compromise with anything. It should be strictly enforced in order that any who might have criminal tendencies will be discouraged and attempts to commit crime. An explanation of this demoralization of law enforcement was found in a radiology on the first page of the same issue, which showed that I did tell all the State who they had built in 1924. The sentimental prediction that Gov. John T. Martin, who has just entered upon his duties, will have great opportunities to the State goodwill candidate.

As to the motives that caused this change we are not able to speak with any degree of certainty. It is only fair to presume that he took his cue from the new atmosphere in which he found himself and acquired a broader vision.

FRANCIS VANDFRHORST Proceeding Elder New Brunswick District, A M J Church Rahway, N J STATION H-E-A-L-T-H By Dr B S. HERBEN Of the New York Tuberculosis Association Why Do Women Stay Away From Work? Women who work in the business world are away from their jobs two and a half times more frequently than men are away from thems. The women who are married are away more often than the unmarried women. Why is this? Of course, it is not possible to tell exactly why this should be so. It is certainly not because of any special feature in the make-up of women, though they are thought to be more sensitive to most the contagious diseases. One writer thinks that women tell little adductions as excuses for absences from work while men disregard minor illness. That may be true in a certain extent but it certainly does not explain the whole question. The fact that more than half the women who stay out of the shop or office are married women succeeds a touch deeper reason than the one given. Women have to do much work in the homes. Both married and unmarried women live long durations which must do have. Most women home to find clean clothes, food readies and when the meal is over they are free to eat. Out read the paper or do a low chemical炒炒 like a little salad. Most women have a little laundry for themselves and the tails to do food to be beautiful or prepared, and the dishes and housework to do. I know many a working woman who has a four hour job ahead of her when she gets home at night. This particularly true of married women. Right here are several secrets Women carry too much responsibility. They work too long and too hard. The understates health and strength and need them unacceptable. Women and despair. You do not live the hard life a rule. They may be in this father at work and the women there is not to be in the other members of the family. I am still in the both the women and the woman not that who stays home to care for the patient. We should all talk care that the worker, woman get an equal chance with the working man to observe her obliteration to the employer. We must not let women carry too great a home burden along with her daily work outside. Women them selves should not be that they get off their feet without that they be able to all that they are able to do and make a good home. not remain the same The fact that the Negro in Denver is stepping forward.

Willett, owner of the Beaux Arts Institute, design medal for 1912, and the member of the American Architects, is one of the contestants in the prize competition for drawing for the new city hall for Los Angeles to cost five million dollars financed. Williams' entry into the contest created great concern among his white competitors, due to the fact that he has a reputation of winning a competition in which he enters. He won three national and four Western architectural competitions, and won his design for a civic center, accepted by a Western city of 50,000 habitants. As the winning architect will have a contract on a percentage basis estimated to be worth $300,000, it will be accepted that Mr Williams is play high stakes. The Best Ever!

Harlem Second Seventh Day Adventist Church "In Things In The Sky," was pastor Strachan's theme Sunday night at the Harlem Second Seventh Day Adventist Church 106-108 West 127th street, before launching out into the body of his sermon, pastor Strachan had a few words about the eclipse of the sun, also about the content of the modern science explained the content of the modern scientists over the question of space and the vision we got of things there. "Then as he went on in his discourse the pastor said,—I saw the total eclipse of the sun; it was indeed inspiring; and a sight which many of us will never forget. But listen, friends: By the aid of the most powerful telescope, trained upon the constellation of Orion in the January skies, you are privileged to see a wonder that will far surpass the glory of a total eclipse." Said the pastor further,—I wish I could take you to the world's greatest telescope at Williams Bay, Wisconsin, and give you a peep through that powerful instrument into the dome above. You would see a sight that is beyond the extreme limit of your imagination—the nebula of Orion. "Here the eye gasses, and give you a vast cavern passage way, or corridor of splendor; whose walls are whirls and sprays and filaments of light; whose floors are decked with carpets of diamonds, flashing and sparkling with the most fascinating hues. "The diameter of this gorgeous but yawning abyss in the sky will permit a world as big as the one we live on, to pass down through it without touching the sides. Torn, twisted river mastures you in the irregular pillars, columns and stalactites in glittering splendor rise before you. "The pen-of a writer, the brush of an artist, are inert in any attempt whatever to tilt-describe the interior of this mammoth cave in the caverns, a place where the elephant subway lies the eternal City and the throne of the Infinite." Rendall Mem. Pres. Church Dr. W. R. Lawton gave a highly spiritual discourse last Sunday morning from the subject, "Stand."

A splendid congregation responded to her invitation. A P. Morton of Brooklyn will preach this coming Sunday at 11 a.m. There will be special exhibition services at night. Salem M. E. Church The last Sunday of the revival season at Salem Church was marked with impressive services. In four weeks, the church has even engaged in a revival which has meant much to its membership and to the larger congregation who have come under this great spiritual congregation. Dr. Cullen addressed an assembly in the morning of an occasion of the beauty of ordination in forking for Jesus, sage. The day at St. John afforded an admirable study to Christian fortitude and reliance. The Rev. Mrs. A B Clark of Philadelphia, D. pa. preached at evening After the sermon at Rev Mrs. Clark all those who were converted during the revival were received into full members. The ship was an imprising sight to this group of men and mostly young and even so children laughing out upon a new life which will include above all other things fellowship. The annual young people's meeting was held Monday evening. It was a fitting close to the great revival. This unique gathering of the younger people has become a distinct feature of our cultural voice—well in songs of adoration and to have witnessed the carving upon their countryside was a prime of their Christian life. Along with its very well-defined theme of Dr. Cullen's mission to the young people, Dr. Cullen through whose kindly interest in young people weeping, both spiritual and temporal, advised them upon making Christ in the capital of life that she may be assured. The only man Christian in the meeting accepted Christ as his personal savior upon institution from the It was an uncommon audience that gathered at the Lycceum Sunday afternoon to help Dr. John Hope and Hey wred Room at the staff of the York W.

Rush Memorial Church given a pleasant surprise last Sunday morning when Dr. Oliver, the pastor, presented the speaker of the hour, the Rt. Rey, J. S. Caldwell of Philadelphia, bishop of our diocese. Bishop Caldwell led its out in deep water, preaching on "The Unableable Kingdom". Subject based on text found in Hebrews 12.25, 28. The bishop said, in part, that the authorship of the epistles to the Hebrews was for more than 300 years in disarray, but now out any name attached in order that truth might get a hearing, and that the writer might not be noticed. But it was later decided, because of the general make-up, the phrases, etc. that Paul was the author. He was telling of a Kingdom that would be unshakable—that it was made up of the Person of Christ. Who would be the mediational influence between a soldier, a Father, and declared that Christ is the substance of all shadows. One of the things which Bishop Caldwell advised is the arming of one's self with the Christian's armor—Faith. And if we do this, and adjust it properly, it will operate during the dark days as well as the bright ones. Then, we are to despise, not the chastening, nor faint the abused, for the Lord loveth the Heaven. He is the important thought brought out was the carefulness with which we ought to love, planting seeds that will grow joy and peace and happiness—always see to it that no evil roots are allowed to take hold. And then we are to serve God with reverence and Godly fear. We must work out our soul's salvation and prepare for that unshakable kingdom by living in a righteous atmosphere, adjusting our mind, and cultivating the sense of the word, planting good seed that we might bear fruits suitable for the world to behold and see the glories of God.

First Emmanuel Church "A very inspiring sermon was heard by all who attended the services at the church Sunday morning. Pastor Bolden preached from text: "Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus," Philippine 2:5. Pastor Bolden said: "The people of Philippi to whom Paul wrote this letter were vanglorious and were perhaps self-conceived, hence Paul endeavored to carefully call their attention to such a thought and feeling. His criticism was not given harshly. The people had been very kind to and perhaps they did not know that they had not manifest the true conception of the church. He calls their attention to doing all things in humility and charity. After which he commands them in the language of the text to let the mind which was in Christ Jesus he in them. We shall read in this statement of Paul nor was in his mind at that time. He desired that these to whom he was writing would show humility and any other quality which was necessary at that time to impress people with Izabelle Bradhart 02428 A SUNDAY Service a. m.

Today, we urge that believers are to study the mind of our Lord, as revealed in the Synoptic Gospels, and as it is projected in the world of humanity in the presence and person of the Holy Spirit. We may be ashamed that this kind of it seems us, giving obedience to both natural and spiritual laws, that are both around and in us. The knowledge of these laws and how to obey them comes through intellectual and spiritual experience and this experience is known by watching, and through the power of prayer. To understand these laws we have analytical, comprehend and understand. Prayer is host expressed in the language of the poet, "Prayer is the soul's sincere desire." Uttered or unexpressed: It is the motion of a hidden fire. That trembles in the breast. Prayer. The simplest form of speech. That infant lips can try. Prayer the sublimest strains that reach. The majesty on High." Our Lord the Empanuel made constant use of both of these means of power. He recommended and charged His disciples to do the same. For He says, "Watch and pray." Having the mind of the Lord we manifest creative and life sustaining powers, and we have the power of organic and human life and learn to demonstrate the power of everlasting life. The vicious suffering and the triumph over death of our Lord, is significant. And with His mind in our victory is assured. At 2 p.m., the Sunday school was opened by the secretary, Miss Dorothy Snyder, who study a short talk was given by the pastor to the children and teachers.

The theme—"The ways of the temper" was another helpful and forceful sermon Rarely do such a pastor have to address a day, and these are to be remembered for their earnestness, and forcefulness. The Sunday school chair accompanied Bishop W. L. Lee at the Carlton avenue Branch of the Y. M. C. A. at 4 o'clock where he was the speaker and reheated the music for the occasion. Fleet St. was a conspicuous part of the audience.

As it was an extremely strenuous day for the pastor, he was relieved in the morning by Rev. J. H. Williams, one of the local preachers, who preached the morning sermon. His text was taken from John 14:6, and he read the words "way and the truth and the life." No man cometh to the father, but by me. The preacher took as his theme, "Jesus, the Way to God," and pleaded that He be chosen as the standard for our lives, and our only hope for eternal life. At 1 o'clock a large number attended the Sunday school service. This department is the pride of Rev. Cooper's pastorate at Newman, for there is not a Sunday school preschool in the Sunday school adding the superintendent and teachers in training the young for God and His Kingdom.

This service was well attended, and was very successful, both spiritually and financially. 7:30 p.m. found a number of us back home at Bethany. Owing to the fact of having attended the morning service and accompanying the pastor to Sikam the evening service was not so largely attended. But nevertheless, the Holy Spirit was present. At this service, we listened to another sermon by our pastor. Text; Numbers 13-30. This message was equally inspiring and upilting at the morning one. The most interestingly well.

Bridge St. Church, B'klyn Dr. Taylor delivered a very instructive message to the large Sunday morning gathering. It gave those who have not yet accepted Christ an insight into the duties incurred upon them in so doing and to those who are followers of Christ a means whereby they might check up on their mode of living. They saw that many of us are too hasty in declaring that we will follow Jesus. Men and women do not take into consideration the many hardships and responsibilities a Christian his involves. *Vive Christ* tian is faithful, constant and endures under great suffering. A Christian is not content to merely follow Jesus when it costs nothing, but to follow when it costs "custar". Christ's wonderful integrity is the incarnate wisdom of his readability. The entire social order of our present generation is baked man's faithfulness and integrity. When men and women have learned fully the possibilities as well as responsibilities attendant to being a Christian, they will be willing to follow Jesus whithersoever the goeth. Evangelistic services, covering a period of two weeks, were held in the church under the direction of Mrs. Truxon and her daughter. The meetings have been a source of great spiritual uplift.

Special meetings were held between the evangelist and during the Christian Endeavor or hour on Sunday evening at which time the evangelist's daughter, Mrs. Vasilijit Lucel, addressed the young people on the importance of being a Christian. She has won a place in the hearts of many of our young people. Mrs. Truxon preached at the evening worship.

George Shippen Stark, pastor, spoke from the text found in Isaiah 55:8-9. The pastor portrayed the likeness of God to man. Man is a spirit in the image of God and has the capacities of God to speak to others, to serve and has sympathy for his fellowman whether it be in times of joy or sorrow. He referred to this submilenness of the eclipse and pointed out that all nature is obedient to God; that the beast in man is often allowed to get the better of his nature but when we allow the man part of our nature to have control then we can be better equipped to The Bible School held its session at 1:15 p.m. At 4 o'clock a Pew Rally service was held under the auspices of the Board of Trustees.

Lincoln Giants' 1925 Lineup Is Given Out By Mgr. Judy Gans Showing That Williams and Scales Are Both Retained The publication of an article in THE AGE last week, which told of reported changes in the personnel of the Lincoln Giants baseball team, created a scandal among the fans and has stimulated a general discussion about baseball prospects in the First or the 1925 season. Jack Giants, manager who had previously refused to discuss reported changes in the lineup, has broken his silence and given out the full personnel of the team. This lineup shows that mistakes were made in two instances—neither Gerard Williams or George Scales has been released, as was reported by one of the players who was given his release. Manager Gans' lineup is as follows: John Connors Was A Pioneer Ball Teams South On Spring Bacharachs Champions—E John Connors Was A Pioneer In The Practice of Taking Ball Teams South On Spring Training Trips—Made The Bacharachs Champions—Exhibition Games Gave Profit John Connors Was A Pioneer In The Practice of Taking Ball Teams South On Spring Training Trips—Made The Bacharachs Champions—Exhibition Games Gave Profit A group baseball men were discussing the merits and benefits of spring training for the colored teams.

THOMPSON Philadelphia, Pa.—The commissioners of the Mutual Association of Eastern Colored Baseball Clubs gathered at the Y.M.C.A. 1734 Christian st. Saturday, January 24. The meeting was the first held since the joint session of the two leagues in Chicago and was attended by a full quota of the governing body The Washington Potomics were represented by Geo. W. Robinson, Brooklyn Royal Giant by Nat C. Strong, Bacharach Giants by Charles B. Johnson and Wm Weeks, Baltimore Black Sox by Chas P. Spedden, Cuban Stars by Alex Pompez, Lincoln Giants by Jas J. Keenan, Harrisburg Giants by C.W. Strothes and the Hilldale Club by Edw Bolden. Schedule Committee Appointed Chairman Baldwin opened up the matter of drafting a schedule for the coming season and since the task of effecting a balanced layout that will meet the approval of all league clubs is one of the most weighty problems that the Commissioners have to solve, it was deemed advisable to get an early start. Geo W Robinson Nat Strong, Jim Keecan, Charlie Speidel and Earl Bolden will meet February 14 and tackle the job of drawing up a temporary schedule to be ratified at a Litt meeting of the Commission. It is agreed to adopt a twenty game schedule, the same as mapped out in 1924 but realizing the many unplayed games of last season left a bad taste in the mouth of fans in several end of the season balanced schedule and the commissaries will resist that the clubs play out their allotted ban, barring unavailable conditions, but in no instance of the breach that occurred between two clubs the past season be repeated. Of course although the public has a perfect right to be exacting, they must also take into consideration the fact that with the clubs paying top salaries to players and with practically no one per day at the respective sites being a paying proposition the own team is afforded to pay up their buildings with independent clubs in their adjacent territory. However with the exception of the past two seasons the commissaries are determined to admit a re-systemized schedule for 1925. So much to that. Would like the Chief Commissioner of education that will go a long way toward gaining the con- idence of the public in the impor- sion situation.

LOOK ON PAGE TEN FOR THE SOLUTION TO YOUR RENTING PROBLEMS- Joe Bruen Wins Auto Championship Savannah, Ga., Joe Brunen, a local speed king and, perhaps, the best known Negro automobile racing driver in the South, rumped away with the best two out of three automobile races large on January 10, at the Tri-State Exposition track. The races which had been postponed twice since January first, on account of ram, attracted a crowd of about two thousand persons and were considering the segregation condition of the track, a new exhibition of the driving ability of this five daredevil drivers who hazarded their lives on the water snorkaked half mile dirt track The program as mapped out by Promoter L. A. Headen, of Chicago, Ill., automobile manufacturer, proposed giving the local speed tans two five mile and one ten mile automobile races and one ten mile motorcycle event. The management of the course, however, found it impracticable to adhere to this card and on account of the heaviness of the track had to cut the ten mile event for cars down to three miles and to eliminate the motorcycle race altogether the latter machines making it impossible to negotiate the track at any speed whatever. This was the sixth Negro automobile race held her since the migration of the sport four years ago and because of the prowess of three in them drivers in the affair was at fever head. I out of town drivers who were be to take the measure of the local sport kings were Union A Headen of the cage, drawing a Headen special. Bill Blackman of Waukee Canada in a DeNesburg and O'Derry Drift of Lingela delphia in a Marmont special. The latter driver found "mumps" to contain the races and Blackman to carry low to the cage to bring to the whirl of the Marmont to carry the three much heavier cars to Jim Parks in a Lingela and Worcester (Pok) Walker in a Hoboken. The five carriages off the first event to a rolling trial, Brinco hearing the hold to the trial trial. He was followed by Blackman with two of the three cars right on his hips. As the cars thundered around the track it was observed that Brinco was pulling away from his competition, and when the first half mile had been negotiated it was a full thirty yards all at Blackman with the other car trailing along in the thing mid-out shell. The role was kept up on the front and the Walkers machine went back and so piled off the track. Heiden and Parks were hopelessly instructed at this point and were making an apparent effort to catch the swifty inning Brown and Blackman. On the next week around the track Brinco turn increased his lead on the Canadian star and finished the race with a goal of hundred yards. Parks came in third and Head on to the time of the winner be seven minutes and fourteen seconds the second time and was a dip between the first race with Brown taking it and Blackman again on the third and third three miles. Head on returned to the first and third three miles. Head on emerged from Blackman with the third three miles.

Extension workers have found radio useful in giving talks on agriculture and economic topics to the stay-at-homes who tend demonstrations and meetings, and who, nevertheless, would like to benefit by extension teaching. A recent instance of how well a program in home economics can be planned on one by radio has been reported to the University of Oregon, for Agriculture from Oregon. A newspaper having a broadcasting station invited the State home demonstration staff to give a series of talks of interest to farm women. During the summer months, food preservation was discussed every two weeks. Half-hour talks were given one afternoon a week during the winter months on such subjects as nurseries and farm animals. The toples to be sent over the radio were listed a week in advance in the radio programs of three newspapers, so that anyone might plan to listen to those of especial interest. WHITE ASSAILTNT OF LITTLE GIRL GETS TWENTY YRS. Married Kentuckian Found Guilty of Rape on 12- Year Old Child WHITE ASSAILTNT OF LITTLE GIRL GETS TWENTY YRS. Married Kentuckian Found Guilty of Rape on 12- Year Old Child Edgar Hart, a married man was tried here on a statutory charge preferred by the relatives of Mary Whiteside, a 12-year, old school girl Hart is alleged to have enticed the little girl to some excluded place where she was held against her will for a while. When the child was set free she told of her abduction and accused Hart of a serious offense. There was some indignation among the residents of the little village which caused Hart to be arrested. Charges of the 12 year old girl brought to bear against Hart in Court were so strong as to result in his being found guilty of abducting and attacking the child and the Judge sentenced him to 20 year in prison. Interracial Forces Active in Kentucky Conference Held At Louisville, Dr. Moton Making the Principal Speech Louisville, Ky.—The fifth annual State Interacial-Conference, held on this city's December, went on record with a rigorous recommendation that Negroes be given a fair share of civic advantages maintained by taxation or controlled by law such as parks, swimming pools, libraries, hospitals and pet institutions, and on railroads, and that a committee be appointed in each city to suitably appear before the proper authorities to urge such provisions. The Conference gave large attention to the need of more adequate facilities for Negro education, recommending the department of a law to compilate school advantages and asking that an *A grade* called teacher college be established. The Conference pledged itself also to work for the establishment of a state institution for government to open the leased fields of public hospitals to the practice of Negro physicians and nurses and recommended that the study of Negro history and achievement be made a part of the public school course. The meeting was attended by some two hundred professional educational and civic leaders from over the state the two races being about equally represented. Many able speeches were delivered on education, health, welfare, the ballot education, by elected the full-capacity dignities, be encouraged with regard to conditions and attitudes. The principal address was that of Dr R. M. Moton, head of Tuskegee Institute who sausae a powerful plea for justice and friendliness before a merged audience that filled one of the largest white churches of the city. He was given a most appreciative report. J. James Island, director of the Tuskegee Institute, Kentucky, convinced the conviction that conditions and attitudes are steadily improving in the States in spite of occasion apparent back sets. Harlem Hospital Nurse Situation Not Bad As Told (Continued on Seventh Page) ordered opuses. He admitted that such incidents had happened. But said he, the men just and insult the white nurses just as quickly as they do the colored, and in every case where such an incident has happened, the offending individual has been discharged. He said he, "it's no matter of justice." The getting drunk proposition he said, has been one of the problems to be contended with. Repeated offenses of this nature led to an investigation and it was discovered that a man employed as a gardener was using his knowledge of the local situation with regard to the hooch joints to keep those persons in the hospital who wanted it supplied with hooch. He was offended of this character were repeated, further investigation was made, leading to the discovery that an ambulance driver was bringing in Bishop W. Sampson Brooks, Enroute To Africa, Sends Message To People From Bay of Biscay Washington, D. C.—The Brotherhood of Dining Car Employees, national labor union organization of railroad dining car cooks—waters, which has worked so effectively as to add more than $200,000 to the wages and overtime payment of that class of railroad employees during the past four years, recently defeated the great Southern Railway System and fully established its right, in a manner prescribed by the Railroad Labor Board, to represent the Southern's dining car cooks and waiters in efforts to get reasonable wages and pay for overtime service. The Brotherhood, after a year's hard fight, succeeded last May in bringing about agreement with the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad, which resulted in restoration of the basic 8-hour work-day, arbitrarily abolished by that carrier in 1921, and wage increases of approximately $20,000 annually. Impressed by the organization's victory against persistent and stubborn opposition, the Southern Railway declined to recognize its cooks—waiters organization status and, after six months of fruitless negotiation, the employees took the case to the United States Railroad Labor Board. The Board ordered a Bishop W Sampson Brooks of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, whose episcopal district embraces the conferences and schools located in Sierra Leone, a British possession, and the Republican of Liberia, on the West Coast, Africa, has returned to his field of labor after a brief visit in this country in the interest of his $50,000 Drive for funds needed to erect a building for girls at Freetown, Sierra Leone, and an assembly hall and dining room (as a memorial to the late Rev. Nora Taylor) and a dormitory for boys at the Monrovia College, Monrovia, Liberia. He sailed from New York on Thanksgiving Day last, accompanied by Mrs. Brooks, Mater Helen Curtis, who is to operate a chicken farm, and Lorerz B. Graham of the University of California After a few days wait for a southbound train, the patrol embarked from Germany, on the Este, sailed December 18. On December 25, Christmas Day, the vessels was crossing the Bay of Biscay in the midst of a terrific storm. Bishop Brooks, on this day, wrote a message to the people of the United States, describing the unusual experience, and bearing a hope for the future of the great work he is planning to do on the Dark Continent. He wrote in part as follows: "I had hoped to send to the people of America a long letter outlining the work which we hope to carry out in the next few years in Africa, but I have been so spent in body and in mind, and so busy in working out the smaller details that such a letter must be put off future time." "We are now crossing the Bay of Biscay, and our ship is being tossed about on the ocean's billows as though the Almighty were bent on showing man his misfortune. The wind streams through the rigging, lightning flashes. hopeful. This man was also discharged, and such drastic action taken with regard to the other offenders that the situation has been considerably improved. Full Course of Instruction The course of instruction in the training school, according to Dr. Neff, director of medical service, is full and comprehensive, and even more complete, in some respects than the course given at Bellevue. For instance, said he, the Harlem nurses got instruction in derma therapy, through a series of clinical lectures and demonstrations conducted by himself, as a clinical effort which is not available to the Bellevue school. All of the Harlem nurses are said that every effort is being made to get student nurses the ample and best training possible, that they may be fully qualified to take up the work of carry on Bellevue traditions and maintain Bellevue ideals of the development of their work at Harlem. It is planned that the nurses trained at Harlem will be as active as possible absorbed into the care long, they will be filling all of the responsible and important positions in the hospital now occupied by white nurses. The first class of graduates will be sent out about June 1, with two other classes to finish this year. It is planned that a joint commencement exercise will be held in one of the Harlem churches, as may be found convenient, even though the three classes finish at intervals four months. Gov. Smith Endorses Hampton-Tuskegee Drive At a meeting on Monday night, January 26 at All Angels Church, New York City, in interest or for the $5,000,000 drive for the Hampion-Tuskeguee Endowment Fund, Dr William Jay Siefelmiln read a letter from Gov. Al Smith, extolling the work of Negro educational institutions and paying a particular tribute to Hampion and Tuskeguee. Gov. Smith wrote in part: "The mission of Tuskeguee and Hampion is present. The statement ran: 'The contribution of the these institutions who become effective leaders in their communities, and enhanced their economic welfare by different labor, has secret ballot election, to determine the issue. The balloting was conducted by a general committee of organization and railroad representative, with Neilel B. Lema, grand president of Life Brotherhood, field matriarch of the preeminent forces, and C. D. Mokay, assistant to the Vice-President in charge of Personnel, heading the railroad company program, committee headquarters, and general office. The retired company officer returned ballots we counted on January 22, and the court revealed that every ballot not voided account of improper marking was cast for the Brotherhood of Dining Car Employees as the duly accredited and properly authorized representative of the dealer waiters employed in the Southern Railways. This means that as soon as the Railroad Labor Board has officially received and noted the results, the railroad company shall meet with organization representatives effective in wage increases and rules changes and, failing that, the case goes back to the Labor Board for final decision. Three times has the Brotherhood won decision from the Labor Board, "Supreme Court" of all wage and rules disputes among railroad management and employees. In the "New Haven" Railroad wage disputes; in the Atlantic Coast Line wages and rules disputes, and the case aforementioned. There is now pending before the Labor Board for hearing and deciding the $40,000 Atlantic Coast Line Back Pay.

This vessel, which seemed to mighty in calm waters, has become as a match box unable to seize; make a move in its own defense. Never in my thirty years of travel the seas have known a beast like the seas have known storms that threatened the lives of all those in reach but always they have spent their fun on a day or so. This storm has taged new for four days, and in the night the darkness adds its perils. "But the God who divided the waters for the Israelites, and the Sabbath we said, 'Peace, he still!' have not not taken us and we creep slowly forward into the face of the underworld and we have been struck by a wonderful lesson, wonderful and terrible, as His lessons of times are the smallness of man with all his beauty, the goodness of God with all his strength. "If the storm abates soon we shall be in the Canary Islands in a few days. Shortly after the first of the year we shall be back in the field at Montvaux a Liberia. At Montvaux and to the North and the South they are waiting they are wating at the missions, they are waiting at the schools, they are waiting with outstretched hands for that when they hope the people of America will have sent by us, your messengers.

Gov Morgan Tells Of West Virginia's Aid to Negro Gov Morgan Tells Of West Virginia's Aid to Negro thank you W. W. Geoghegan I. L. Merga in my memory to the West Virginia Legislature now in office, and to the most important opportunities afforded Negroes in the State. He said, We work at the top at the bottom in the south of the Mason and Dixon line in providing educational opportunities to Negroes and he served his career in the role stating that the most important Virginia terrace that he built and constructed was the reservoir provided by the Bureau of Negro Waste and that T. Edward Hill director, Jr. accumspliments on behalf of the Negro Race. Jess Merga's reference to the Negro was as follows: West Virginia has continued to provide greater opportunities to the co-operated people who reside within his boundaries. We stand at the top of the list among those states south of the Mason and Dixon line in providing educational opportunities and our achievements reflected in the statistical fact that lower in West Virginia than in any other in the admitted geography of the state. We have provided a number of educational institutions for colored people in recent years and they are now constructed with efficiency in citations that trace The Bureau of Negro Welfare and Statistics, established in 1921 has been doing an effective work in assisting real conditions existing among the colored people and it has been so successful that the industry among the Negroes is the real deal in co-operating to improve relations with the result that the Goodman in West Virginia feels that he has political and economic equality. Greerithorpe, N. C.—Professor George W. Carver of the College Institute, Ala., earned his bachelor's, was accorded at most time, and made his career in the timeless pursuit for the highest South State, when he appeared before the faculties and student bodies of the leading white institutions of learning, lecturing to them on his developments in the use of the lowly potato and peanut. He lectured at Duke University (formerly the aristocratic Trinity) at Durham, before 800 students and teachers, 2,000 hearin at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, the North Carolina College for Women, the North Carolina College for Women, and at College College, as Quaker institution six miles out from Greenville; there were 800 for hearin. Dr. Carver, who is at the head of the Department of Agriculture, and director of research chemistry, was given a most distinguished reception at each of these educational institutions. At the College for Women, the introduction was made by Prof J. P. Goyer, head of the college's Department of Science, who said, "W. should do honor to this man whom the Royal Society of Great Britain has seen it to make a Fellow and who has been awarded the Spingarn medal. Dr Slosson, the great authority on creative chemistry, has written many books on the subject, but Dr Carver has really created through Dr. Carver's lecture at Guildford College it was and a dispense to the Dany News, for inspiration, that he gave the studious of Guildford College ample proof that the Negro, when educated, is a highly capable race." In all of the features D. Carter emphasized the fact that it is working to eliminate waste, which he declares is due to ignorance. He also made it clear that the original products from the potato, the peanut, the peanat, and the clays of Alabama and Georgia are not used in the potato products. "I like to have it understood that I do not make it constitutes the coffee. I will stand on its own merit, this coffee or more as sweet potato coffee." He examined 118 potato products, 178 from peanat, 78 from the peanat, and 52 from peanat (from the peanat and Malta and 177 from the peanat).

Reed of 228, W14th street, who is a pupil at Public School 119, has been doing so well in her English classes that her teacher, Miss Surtzer, thinks that Marjorie has marked talent as a writer.

Marjorie chose as her subject, "Beautiful Thoughts" and wrote as follows: "Rose Maynard was a pretty little girl with a very tuggy tongue and disposition. Her chief ambition was to wear silk to every party she ween and to most beautiful child there. She did not think thoughts make a beautiful soul and a beautiful soul makes a beautiful face. She never wanted to soil her hands or do any hard work. "One day Rose sat by the window; it was raining out and there was nothing Rose wanted to do except cry and wish that she could wear silk and be the most beautiful girl at the party. 'If you want to wear silk to the party do as I say. Help mother around the house and try and have the most beautiful thoughts possible,' spoke an old lady who had adap- tion in her hands before her with a ward in her hands. 'You me with foolishness,' said Rose after a while. The old woman touched her with the wand and saushed. "Rose, come and take your little sister out, called mother, she called Rose without expecting her to come at once. To her surprise Rose ran downstairs and said, 'Yes mother, do let us hurry, the sun is shining and it is lovely out.' The mother thought that her daughter had changed like the weather from rain to sunshine. All week long, Rose acted like one of the most beautiful children in the world. The week before the party mother said, 'Rose, I have bought you a silk dress to wear to the party.' At the party Rose was picked out for the most beautiful girl. Rose's fairy godmother came back one rainy day after the party and asked if she should touch her with the wind and make her ugly as she need to be here, her Rose told her that "I think not," he beautiful in thoughts, and and race that in face alone.

HER SECRET IS OUT The beautiful satiny black hair, which always seems so smooth and glossy and has so much to do with the appeal and charm of Miss Valda Snow, now appearing with the "In Bamville" Company, is due to the regular use of Pluka, the delightfully perfumed preparation, which so many thousands of our men and women are now using to make their hair more attractive. Pluka hair, Miss Snow said: "No, indeed. I have not always had long, straight hair. I used to have just as much trouble with my hair and scalp as any one of our group; but I don't any more.

Morehouse Five Defeats Clark University, 33-14 Atlanta, Ga.—Morehouse College basketball team continued its winning streak on Saturday, January 24, by defeating Clark University on the home court before a fair six crowd. Morehouse showed the effects of poor training in the first half-due to examination week, but in the last half Coach Harvey's boys completely outclassed the visitors. Clark and Bailey of Morehouse were tied as high point scorers with eleven points each, while Daltun tied with aix points for Clark Hampton Five Defeats Union By P. Bernard Young, Jr. Hampton, Va.—Hampton went into field-goal scoring with a profession and a certainty which put her ahead of Union at the final gun by a comfortable margin. Union lost, 45 to 22, and the Seasiders ran their string of, consecutive victories to five, climbing one step nearer the intercollegiate championship by hurling back the most dangerous court team she has encountered this season. The teams had alternate scoring rallies which had them whirling over the court like streaks of color in a spectators enjoyed the flashing two-tone spectacle during these sparts. For some reason, however, neither Hampton nor Union could refrain from personal contact which drew fouls. This slowed up the game at times and prevented either team from continuing for any length of time with its full strength, or irith the same combination. The Union Panthers are the first aggregation that has scored more than 13-points on the invincible local five. Today, by her steady fire directed at the basket, Union garnered 22 points and smashed Hampton's hope of holding opponents to a scant, unlucked 13 points. Led in their attack by their formidable center, Gardner, the Panthers pawed and clawed in their fight to gain a victory. At the final count, however, they were trailing by 23 points. This was Union's first defeat by an association team. With 9 field-goals and 4 free-throws, Hargrove came through with high-point honors with a total of 22 as his share. Gardner, the opposing center, was second high-point man with 9 points. E. E. Brown, Hampton, and Smith of Union tied for third place honors with 6 points each. Thorne, thatatcher with three points Baker with two, Wiggins with 1, McNichols with 3, Lambright with 8, Captain Jones with 5, and Renfrew were creditable in their work.

C., made a plea before the women who are training to become deans of women under the direction of Dr. Sarah Sturtevant of Teachers College, Columbia University, New York City for better race relationships between colored and white college women of this country. Dean Slowe contended that only through the process of investigation, curiosity and open-mindedness could white and colored people learn to dissipate by turning the light of knowledge upon those who suffer from it, as well as upon those who impose it. Dean Slowe said further that the colleges of the country should be places where students of all races would come together for the purpose of discovering that which is good in members of different racial groups, in order that misunderstandings, due to ignorance, might not arise. She condemned the policy of excluding from an educational institution any person solely on the grounds of race. White and colored college women in various communities should keep in constant touch with each other through frequent conferences on matters of common interest, she said. They should lead the way in bringing about better race feeling through applying the method of investigation and information to the race problem instead of the method of evasion, indifference and ignorance. Mrs. Lydia C. Dunn Of 40 W.128th Street,Has Disappeared From Home Friends of Mrs. Lydia C. Dunn, 30 years of age, of 40 West 128th street, are greatly exercised over her mysterious absence from home since Friday, January 16. Mrs. Dunn, a woman of high standing in the community, and an active communicant at St. Marks' Catholic Church, West 138th street, and the Roman Catholic Church of St. Benedict the Moor, West 53rd street, was last seen on the morning of January 16, when she went out after breakfast, about 7.30 a.m., without her coat, with her pocket book on her arm. She wore a set of rosary beads around her neck. Friends are inclined to attribute Mrs. Dunn's disappearance to mental collapse caused, probably, by financial strain. She has been acting querently for a week preceding her disappearance, say tenants in her home She is a widow, with a daughter 12 years old, who is visiting relatives in the West Indies Mrs. Dunn, belongs to all of the religious societies in the two colored Catholic churches, and sings in the choir Mrs. Leo Cadcie Jeffers, a friend, of 102 West 18th street, is actively engaged in the search, and a request is made that newspapers make note of Mrs. Dunn's disappearance The Club of Twenty Elects New Officers "The Club of Twenty," composed of postoffice attaches connected with the Varkick Street Postoffice Station, is the newest organization in the city among governmental employees. It has been functioning about two years quietly attending to deserved charities among fellow employees. For the past two years the club has been welcoming the New Year with a gala celebration in the rooms of the Alpha Physical Club, 120 West 131st street, where its regular meetings are held. The number of friends accepting bids to the last reception, showed the futility of trying to accommodate the party in the Alpha building, so plans are already being laid to secure a larger auditorium for a dance in the spring. The meetings will be continued in the 131st street building. One of the features of the club's invitation list is that it contains only the names of personal friends of members and of fellow postoffice employees. The annual election was held at the last meeting, with the following result. Richard B Cardwell, president, Thos. Griffin, vice president; Gen D Murphy, secretary; David J Wilson, treasurer; Chas Johnson, chaplain; Neil Molkte, sergeant at arms; Robert I Tunkler, chaplain membership committee. Other members are Joseph Blake, Lowell W Co., Benj T Burns, Led Hooks, Lawrence Hunt, George D Johnson, Leonard A Linnan, Arthur L, Luman, Noel L McMurton, Ed Lerpall, George H Reiding, Max Smith and Otto L.

WITH OUR GIRLS THE NEW YORK AGE Why Girls Should Smoke There has been some discussion throughout the social organizations of the world as to whether "of not it is fitting and proper for the female sex to smoke. It is my ophthalm that the female smoker has the right to do as she pleases as long as that right does not infringe on another's. It is claimed by some that it shows immorality on the part of the woman smoker, although they contend that it is not immoral for the man. It seems no more than last fall that what is sauce for the goose in sauce for the gander. It is also claimed that it is detrimental to health, but science has proven that smoking in a moderate measure keeps germs from attacking. If it is detrimental to health, why do you suppose you see so many of the old folks live to be almost a hundred, who claim that if it weren't for their smoking they wouldn't be here so long. Furthermore, if i. is detrimental to the health, it would be so for both sexes What can dase one mind more than to sit down and smoke your cares away. Take the business man, for instance. When he has had a hard day with lots of nerve-racking minutes, does he not sit down and smoke to collect his thoughts? Yes, and after the smoke, is he not more rested, more carefree? The same applies to the woman who has done his hard day's work. Therefore it shows that smoking will help people to think more easily and steady their nerves. Singing off! Good evening. "M-I-N" Negro Singing Society Sings "Endymion's Dream" By Coleridge-Taylor Notwithstanding the continued illness of Mrs. Daisy Tapley, who created and has kept alive the Negro Singing Society, one of the most pretentious musical organization of race, all about one of the most modest, that body of singers, through the energy and active interest of Miss Minnie Brown, the soprano soloist, who has been associated with Mrs. Tapley for a number of years, rendered its annual program an Thursday evening, January 22. Its offering was a work which, so far as available records indicate, had not before been rendered in this country by a race singing society, and possibly not more than one of twice by any organization. It was "Endymion's Dream" by Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, the great Afro-Anglo composer whose untimely death at an early age did not prevent him from leaving a wonderfully rich heritage of musical accomplishment. Mrs. Jessie Andrews Zackery was the soprano soloist, "Selene," white Carlton Boxill, tenor, sang the title role. Preceding the cantata, Mr. Boxill sang a group of songs which included "Wayside Rose" (Henry), "Swing tow, sweet charot" (Burleigh), "The nightingale and the rose" (Rimsky-korsakov) Mrs. Zackery, gave Ombre legere from "Dimorah" (Meyerbeer) "Both singers were given an occasion. Their work in the cantata won merited acclaim from the audience, and many nice things were said concerning the conducting of the chorus by Miss Brown, who acted as director in place of Mrs. Tapley. Miss Carlette Thomas was the very capable and accomplished pramist, and her accompanying was unusually fine. Tracy F. Cooper Dead Tracy F. Cooper died at the Roosevelt Hospital from double pneumonia on Monday, January 26.

Campbell, a member of the College faculty, has been temporarily appointed to succeed him. Dr W. S. Rankin of the State Department, of Health of Raleigh, N. C. lectured to the students and faculty at the regular Chapel exercises on January 10. He made a comparative statement of the death and birth rates of the white and colored races and brought out the fact that the average life of a white man in North Carolina is ten years long, than that of a colored man. He urged upon the students and faculty the need of preserving their health so that the Negro may secure as firm a hold on life as any other current. On Friday evening, January 10, a freshman college class gave a program in Drillies, auditione. The nature of the evening was a debate.

So Saturday at the designated time we watched this marvellous phenomena. I was struck with awe at their wonderful working of a mighty and powerful God, I began to feel my insignificance and a thought came to me. What is man: And then as my mind wandered to the great scientists who predicated the eclipse, the exact minute date, and details, a thought struck my mind—Thou has made him a little lower than the Angels, and crowned him with glory and honor "Seek and ye shall find." The scientists have sought God, and found Him in nature and in our lives. We thank God for the wonderful men. The eclipse suggested to the world, that there was God. Newark, N. J. Dr. M. V.

Because of these conditions, the plantiffs asked that the operation of this mill be declared a nuisance and that the mill be enjoined from operation. They further asked damages for the pain, suffering, inconvenience and impairment of health to which they had been subjected. About a year ago a preliminary injunction was granted, restraining the operation of this roll in such way as to permit the escape of but on dust over on Mrs. Ragland's premises. This case usually came on to be heard on its merits, on the question of damages, and as to whether or not the preliminary injunction should be made permanent or dissolved, and after a stubborn contest on both sides, to three weeks on, the All Admire Her Lovely Hair Few people who meet this beautiful girl know how she obtained the gloriously lovely hair that now makes her admired by all who son her. She says it was Exelento Quinine Pomade that rid her scalp of all dandruff and made her hair grow long, silky soft, and luxurant. It made her hair fairly glow with life and gave it a pretty, glossy sheen. She was so delighted with Exelento Quinine Pomade, she tried Exelento Skin Beautifier for low complexions and skin blimishes. She had used this remarkable cream but a short time when her friends began complimenting her on her clear skin and improved appearance.

A, and A. has issued his annual thanksgiving proclamation, setting Sunday, March 29, as the day to be observed throughout the jurisdiction by Pythias, Calanthas and other branches of the Order.

All Lodges Courts, and the members thereof and all members of the Uniform Rank and Juvenile Departments of the Oredr, are hereby commanded to repair to some Church to hold appropriate religious service on that day. Compllying with the laws and customs of our Order we find ourselves blessed the mostestable privilege of assembling in a house of worship to express our grateful appreciation for the many blessing that have been bestowed upon us through the Divine favor of our Heavenly Father and to implore a continuation of His merciful kindness for us during the period of our earthly existence. The past year has witnessed no visible mark of the displeasure of our Heavenly Father toward us. He has vouchsafed unto us peace and prosperity beyond our merits or hopes. He has protected us from pestilence and disease. He has shielded us from the snakes and pitfalls that would so casily beset us. He has watched over us in our going out and our coming in. In our efforts to alleviate the sick and distressed, in our efforts to relieve the widow and the orphan, in our efforts to bring sunshine and gladness into homes of gloom and sadness, his guiding hand has directed our work and his Holy Spirit has crowned our labors. We will repeat the Psalms of David Lord, thou has been our swelling place in all generations. Before the mountains were brought forth or even thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God. Thenurnest man to destruction; and sayest, Return, ye children of men. For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night. They carest them away as with a hood, they are as a sleep, in the morn- ing they are like grass which groweth up. In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up, in the evening it is cut down, and withereth. For we are consumed by thine anger, and by thy wrath are we troubled. Then last set our inquities before thee, our secret sins in the light of thy confinance. For all of our days are passed away in thy wrath, we spend our years as a talk that is told. The days of our years are threecore years and ten, and if by reason of strength they be tourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.

THE AGE WANT ADS SECURE RESULTS It will profit you to read and use them ALPHA KAPPA ALPHA SORORS CELEBRATE ITS FOUNDERS' DAY Prof. Mary R. Ely of Vassar Addresses Sorors At Grace Church Sunday afternoon, January 21, Lambda Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority celebrated Forgiveness Day at Grace College Congregational Church, the Rev. A. C. Garner, pastor. "The exercises" marked 17 years since the sorority was found at Howard University, Washington, D. C. It first presided, Mrs. Lacy Slowe, is now dean of women at Howard. The progress of the sorority has been steady until there are now chapters in most of the leading colleges of the United States. The exercises on Sunday were featured by an address by Prof. Mary Redington Ely of Vassan College, and by several musical numbers. Prof. Ely's subject "Some Hopeful lines of Modern Life." Three main lines of engrossing problems seemed to Prof Ely to be manifest in our life today, namely—the awakening of the responsibility to youth, the new trend in education, and the power of the new religion. Prf. Elly said in part: "Young people of today are just as thoughtful and purposeful as they ever were. Conventions do not hold as formerly but there is a more honest searching for fundamental truth. Peace can only come through the slow efforts of education." The musical program was a rare treat. Mrs. Jesse Andrews Zachary sang in her elegantly beautiful voice. Lloyd Hickman, a pupil of the LaFarge school, accompanied by Dr. Melum Charlton, favored the audience with the prologue to "I Paglacera." A trot, the participants of which were Felix Weir, Leonard Jeter and Miss Olive Jeter, played the Spirituals, "My Lord What a Morning"; and "Nobody Knows the Trouble I See," who are an understanding and perfectly articulation that the audience was enthralled.

Holds Annual Meeting The annual meeting of the West 137th street Branch of the. W. L. A. always means looking backward and lookinf forward. We take stock of what the past year has accomplished with some sense of fulfillment, and inevitably, with some disappointment, as even the most optimize plans do not mature perfectly. The work of the past year, however, has been very gratifying in many respects, as was brought out in the various games given at the annual meeting Friday, February 21st. The total service alone, which is, after all, a by product of the Association program, has been justification for our existence. It has been worth while to keep our doors open if for no other reason than that girls, homeless, in trouble and often pennies, might not be turned away and that men and women, in need of such service, might have some place to find advice and help. Much more than this has been accomplished during the year, however, and the work for the development of young thompsonhood has been the various phases of this work as the years reports from the various departments show. Mrs. Elizabeth S. Michae, retiring acting chairman, presided at the meeting opening with a brief resume and force of work Mine Mine Virginia E. Scott, who has served this Branch so splendidly for many years, made her annual treasurer's report, and Mrs. Saunders made an interesting secretary's report meeting on the high point of the work and the firm appeal for stronger membership for 1925 Miss Mamie Chapman and Mrs P. L. Anderson, new committee of Management members, were presented at the meeting Delightful music, arranged by L. Franklin Dyer, interpersed the program and added greatly to its interest. At that James, tent, and Lloyd Hickman baritone, the were the soloists, of whom the audience showed its thorough appreciation by repeated encores. The new Calabria of the office was a beautiful and impressive Candle-Lighting ceremony, led by Mrs. Adal Thomas-Smith, chairman of the membership committee. Mrs W H Wertheim, newly elected chairman of the branch, was called out of town by illness and her absence was greatly regretted. The membership however, anticipates a good year of work under her leadership and we are going on enthusiastically with the membership. We are also pleased to be treated by the strength of the Branch has in its membership and with a strong and loyal body of women behind this work all things are possible in the way of good service for this community.
