Candy Buyer's Sweet Tooth Caused Small Box, But He Also Took A Just Delivered To The Retail
During the past week thieves in Harlem have been stealing all sorts of things from candy to women's dresses, and in most cases, when caught, they had pistols on their persons.
A boothblack who gave his age as 24 years, his address as 100 West 141st street, and his name as James Jackson, was arrested by Detective McLaughlin of the East 104th street police station, who became suspicious of two bundles which he was carrying under his arms.
Upon investigation it proved that the packages contained candy valued at $1950 which had been stolen from Max Silverman, who has a candy store at 1548 Madison avenue. The candy store keeper claimed that Jackson came in his store just after two packages of candy had been de livered and that Jackson bought some candy, paid 40 cents for it, and went out. After Jackson had come he missed the packages of candy

Another deplorable condition arises, she says from licensed prostitution, and the ease with which illegitimate children are gotten rid of by their mothers. Beginning is also a licensed operation.
CHICAGO THEATRE MUST PAY COLORED DENTIST DAMAGES Court Assesses Tivoli Theatre $2,000 For Beating Given Man By Ushers
Judge Hugo Pam, in the Superior Court here, has awarded $2,000 damages to Dr. Leont M Headen. Negro dentist, in suit against the Tivoli Theatre, a south picture house Headen alleged he had been set upon and beaten by others two years ago, when he objected against accepting interior seats
The case was decided after a two days hearing. Headen asked $10,000 damages for assault and $500 on a charge of discrimination by the theatre management. Counsel for the theatre owners argued that no discrimination had been shown. The plaintiff they argued, had attended the Tivoli before and had been accorded the same courtesy as white patrons.
The jury was out for one hour and then brought in a verdict of $2,000 in favor of the plaintiff on the assault charge returning a verdict of guilt on the charge of discrimination.

FISK CLASS ROOMS ALMOST DESERTED; OTHERS TO LEAVE Arbitration Has Not As Yet Brought Any Tangible Result Or Relief
Nashville, Tenn.—Conditions at Fisk University are in a far from satisfactory condition, although there has been little additional development during the past week, beyond the fact that the student body has dwindled to a low mark, with the probability that it will go even lower.
The arbitration connell which was held in Nashville, with representatives of the McKenzie administration, the board of trustees and the alumni present, did not seem to get very far. The vice-chairman of the board, J. Hollingsworth Wood, who went to Nashville during the early days of the outbreak, and who was quoted as giving full support to President McKenzie and his policies, is back in New York, but refuses absolutely to make a statement, or to be quoted, directly or indirectly.
Beyond saying that the meeting was held, and that there is to be another meeting probably after the return of Chairman Paul Cravath, now in India or some other point in the Far East, Mr Wood was positively mum.
Rev. Henry Hugh Proctor, of Brooklyn, who is a member of the board of trustees, and also a representative of the alumna, went to Nashville for the meeting, and is now back at home. He was advertised extensively as intending to preach on Sunday evening on "The Truth About the Trouble At Fisk," but the sermon did not materialize Dr. Proctor did make a brief statement, but the only direct statement was that another meeting is to be held on March 10, and that the troubles and difficulties will be smoothed out. In the meantime, students that have left Fisk have enrolled in the University of Michigan the University of California, the University of Minnesota, and possibly others. A telegram from Nashville on February 23 stated that only about 100 students including the local day students were in the class rooms and that many of the out-of town students would be leaving as opportunity offered. A protest meeting was held at Grace Church of Harlem West 190th street, on Monday evening, when addresses were made by Dr. A. Garner, A. Philip Randolph, Mrs. Josephine Holmes Frazier and others, and resolutions calling for removal of President McKenzie were ordered sent to Vice Chairman Wood of the board of trustees, who is acting chairman during Chairman Cravath's absence

men, who claim to be the special patrolmen at Kew Gardens, Long Island; the shooting being done about 5 a.m. Tuesday morning in the vicinity of Fulton street and Saratoga avenue, Brooklyn. Officer Green was patrolling his beat when he heard pistol shots from the neighborhood of a poolroom at 2047 Fulton street, and he hurried there to investigate. The three men had been in the poolroom, but before Green reached the place they had gotten into a taxi. Hailed by the officer, they replied by firing four times at him and then driving rapidly away. Detectives Garland and Holland of the Ralph avenue station, and Detective Beck of the Liberty avenue station, met the taxi four blocks away, however, and arrested the men who gave their names as Patrick Walsh of 8711 139th street Jamaica; Harry Egbert of 87. Elders Lane, Forest Hills, and Fred Altenberg of 68 Rockaway avenue. They were held by Magistrate O'Neil in Gates Avenue Court in $5,000 bail each on charges of felonious assault. Kew Garden is notorious for the fact that the interests which control it place an absolute ban upon having any Negro residents in that section, and it is alleged to be one of the strong-holders of the Ku Klu Klan.
5 Women Caught In 133rd St. Raid
5 Women Caught In 133rd St. Raid
After numerous complaints by residents of 133rd street between 7th and 8th avenues, police from the 16th Precinct raided an apartment at 224 West 133rd street and arrested five young women on a charge of vagrancy.
Alice Brown, 26, said to have been the owner of the apartment, was also charged with knowingly renting rooms for memorial purposes. The others arrested were Josephine Smith, 24, Alice Collins, 21, and Mary Jones, 26.
Shortly before this raid the police from this station raided the apartment of Mrs. Lora Clark, 45, of 110 West 133rd street, and she is being held on a charge of vagrancy and renting rooms for memorial purposes.

COOLHEADED ELEVATOR OPERATOR SAVES LIVES OF FORTY IN 57th STREET FIRE
Bertram Malone Of 204 West 143rd Street, Shows Courage And Resourcefulness When Fire Destroys Three Floors Of 7-Story Apartment House—Car Stopped By Heat
Bertraim Malone, 204 West 143rd street, saved the lives of forty persons in a three-alarm fire, which burned out the rear of three floors in a seven story apartment house at 328 West 57th street about 8:15 o'clock Sunday night, February 22, in which a prize winner fox terror, called "Bobshire", perished. Many of the tenants are theatrical folks, and were out at the time of the flames, Charles Croaker, King, who is playing in the "Mat Billo Franceau and Magnon I. Now, dancers, were among those whose wardrobes were burned. Mr. family McConnis, in maidage who was being on the fourth floor, was taken down with the assistance of a chauffeur in the street cleaning department. It was the cool headlessness of the colored elevator man, Malone, which prevented greater fascination. He had experienced a fire most done at 326 about a year ago, and on the

Police Making It Harder For Topers To Get Drinks Although Hooch Supply Seems Ample And Inexhaustible In Quantity
As a constant dripping of water wears the hard stone away, so the constant raiding by police and prohibition officials is gradually curbing the activities of Harlem's most damaging pest, the hooch hound.
This recurrent activity on part of the police and federal enforcement officers is making it more difficult for the thirsty to get a drink, even though the fellow who knows the ropes and thus has access to seemingly unlimited sup-
other side, at 330, some time previously.
While he was on duty at the switchboard Sunday night he heard someone shout "Fire!" and quickly ran to the elevator and discovered the source of the smoke that was washing up out of the elevator shaft. He then set to work bringing down tenants and after two trips the elevator shaft became too hot for him to operate the car but he had carried down to safety some forty persons. Malone played safe by first closing all doors in order to shut off any draught and stuck to his post until the house was free of all tenants, who numbered upward to seventy-five, some of whom lost their trunks.
Three former were overcame by smoke, and were given first and by Robert Manier, honorary chief of the Lute Department who came to the rescue in attending dress leaving his mother at a table in the Hotel Plaza.
Gig It Harder For Topers To Although Hooch Supply Seems And Inexhaustible In Quantity
dripping of water wears the hard stone giant raiding by police and prohibitionally curbing the activities of Harlem's st, the hooch hound.
A activity on part of the police and fed- officers is making it more difficult for tho ink, even though the fellow who knows has access to seemingly unlimited sup- plies may think otherwise.
There is some measure of justification for this attitude or doubt on part of the regular tenor for some of the wiskeyemporiums seen to have an inexhaustible supply of hooch within easy access. For notwithstanding the raiding of their saloons and the confiscating of large quantities of liquor, the joints are opened for business with ample stocks on hand as soot as the officers have gotten comfortably way.
But, just the same, the task of getting a drink is getting harder and harder as the days go by. A patient evidence of this is to be found in the unusual precautions now being taken by most of the illiant liquor sellers. The front door is kept locked, and a man is stationed out in front, where he has a clear and unobstructed view of all his surroundings. He gives a signal to the door-opener when the "safe" customer seeks entrance, and he likewise gives the "thumbs down," signal when the would-be customer is unknown or of a suspicious appearance.
The hooch points on Seventh avenue doing business openly and brazenly, have all been raided at various times by prohibition and police officers, and cases are on the Federal Court dockets against them, but a scarcity of Judges has necessitated a delay in bringing them to trial. As Judges are available, United States Attorney Hayward, or his successor, will bring these men to the bar—not of the saloon, but of the court.
While it has developed that some of the men formerly engaged in hostility have turned their attention to the
"humbers" game as offering large and apulent opportunity for financial profit. It is also rumored with persistence, frequently that Loul Immerman and Ryman Kessler, two of the med who were formerly of the holdest and most brassiest hound group, are planning to reenter the game.
Rent Graft Evils Cured By Court Processes, But Task Is Long, Tedious
Statement By Greater Fisk Committee
The recent trouble at Fisk University has led to the calling together of the Greater Fisk Committee composed of
"W'at Kin I Do, When You Are Far Away An' I'm In Jail—W'at Kin I Do?"
Both of these men ran afoul of the United States Attorney's office, and in the parlance of the prize draw, the conflict resulted in a "draw." The federal prosecutor, realizing the difficulty of securing a conviction, permitted the boot-leggers to quietly close up shop and go out of the business, on the promise to stay, out, in considering a flogging the caseer which had piled up on the federal docket discounted. The numerous places which these men were operating were accordingly dismantled and closed, and to all outward appearances the hooch bounds were keeping their words.
At the same time, however, there was a recurrent whispering to the effect that these men had only put a temporary stop to their personal activities; that in reality they were the "unseen beckers" behind other hooch joint operations in Harlem, which were hidden behind dummy owners, or managers.
Loul, it is reported, 'as found it profitable to operate as a "numbers" banker, opening what appears from the outside to be a cigar store, the oldtime favorite camouflage for a hooch joint, but which is fitted up in the rear as a poker playing parlor and headquarters for receiving reports and money from runners and collectors who handle the "numbers" playing transactions of the hundreds of daily clients. And the latest report is that Loul is 'contemplating a chain of such places, on the basis that if one returns a satisfactory profit, a number of them 'must be the more profitable. —

Rent Graft Evils Cured By Court Processes, But Task Is Long, T tedious
Housing conditions in Greater New York, particularly in Harlem, are such at the present time that many tenants paying exhorbitant rent must choose between fighting for rent reduction in the Municipal Courts or paying their expenses by sub-leasing their basements and rooms for illicit enterprises and purposes.
There are many yacht rooms at the present, and this makes difficult for tenants to rent rooms. As an indemnity to roomers a tenant is often forced through sheer need of money to grant roomers additional privileges other than the ordinary kitchen privileges, and in many cases the extra privileges are of an illicit character.
The unemployment situation forces many families to take in roomers to help pay rent, and where all in the family are working there is another problem based on the drop in wages which causes a man whose rental is $100 a month while his salary is $80 a month to sublet, some of his rooms to an outsider, submitting to his use of it whatever way the roomer desires.
Landlords are concerned as to how tenants get the rent, in most cases, as long as it is paid promptly. Their earnings on apartment houses in the past three years have increases from 38 per cent to 45 per cent.
One way in which rent boosted so high was a fault of some tenants at the time when apartments were hard to get when numbers of them offered landlords as high as $125 for an apartment if he would oust the present tenant who was paying not more than $85 monthly.
The janitors who were acting as renting agents on the premises got the idea of graft and made extra money for themselves by asking a bonus of every one who came to him for an apartment. The bonus was only a deposit as a guarantee to give the prospective tenant the first choice of renting the next vacant apartment but he would let it go to the one who had paid him the highest bonus. Dally many tenants, suffering from the burden of excessive rentals, are em

The Atlantic Coast Line Express, enroute from New York to Key West, Fla., leaving the Pennsylvania station shortly after 9 a. m., had stopped at the Transfer station for the changing of engines. A New York-Philadelphia local, pulled by an electric engine, as are all the trains passing through the under-river tubes, left New York five minutes later.
In some upaccountable way, as yet shrouded in mystery, this local, rushing forward, but at reduced speed, passed all signals which were set against it, it is reported, and crashed into the rear end of the Florida express, smashing and overturning a dining car, and causing the electric engine pulling the local to topple over also. Almost immediately the wreckage caught fire, and burned until there was nothing left.
Only a few passengers were in the dining car, but the waiters and cooks, all colored, were bustling about, busy preparing for the breakfast rush which would follow after leaving Manhattan Transfer. Up at the front of the train two car inspectors were engaged in looking after the coupling up of the steam engine in place of the electric, and when the two trains met, these men were caught between the forward car and the engine and crushed to death. One of the bodies was also thrown across the third rail and badly burned before it could be removed. ...
The third casualty was that of one of the Negro cooks, L. R. Johnson of Jamaica, L. I. who was caught in the narrow confines of the dining car's kitchen pinned beneath the debris and burned to death. His charred body was finally taken from the wreck after acetyline torches had been used to burn away the twisted metal barrier.
Few of the colored men employed on the dining car escaped injury. Several are seriously injured and may be added to the fatalities. The colored men whose recovery is in doubt are:

Police Save Seven From Burning House Down In Greenwich Village Lane
ploying-lawyers to fight their battles before juries in the courts in Harlem and other section of the city and are winning out in the majority of cases.
One instance of what goes on in the "Rent Courts" is the case of Mrs. Mary Turner. 2400 Seventh avenue, who was given judgment against Morris Moore Sons in the Seventh District Court, 320 West 125th street, when Justice Crane granted her a rent reduction from $120 to $108 a month.
Three tenants in the apartment house at 141 Edgecombe avenue were granted $10 a month reduction each by Justice Whalen. They were William A. Dixon, Forte, Forte and Mrs. Addie Bucklman. At $14 West 134th street the rent was reduced for Edward Tait front $5 to $45 and for Harold Nelson from $80 to $70. Tenants living at 248 West 129th street have been given until September 1 to find new homes and give up the house to new owners who have recently bought the building.
One of the recent court rulings was that where a tenant gives possession of an apartment to another, the owner cannot evict the new tenant. Another was that a tenant has a right to let his rooms to lodgers if he wishes to do so. A tenant was told by Judge Marks that no matter how bad the condition of a house might be as long as a tenant lived in the house he would have to pay the rent, but if there were complaints against the building they should be filed with the Tenement House Department who would put a violation on the house, then the tenant would be required to deposit the cent regular in the office of the court clerk until the house had been put in proper condition by the landlord.

He awoke the others who were sleeping and the seven of them took refuge on the fire escape from whence they save alarm cries. A man passing at the time heard the cries for help and turned in an alarm. The fire department came under Batallon Chief I J Brennan while a crowd of villagers gathered around the burning house.

Statement By Greater Fisk Committee
The recent trouble at Fisk University has led to the calling together of the Greater Fisk Committee composed of Henry H. Proctor, New York; James H. Robinson, Chicago; Miss Sophia Bouk, Illinois; F. A. Stewart, Tennessee; T S. Inborden, North Carolina; Mrs. Booker T. Washington, Alabama; and John M. Gandy, Virginia; and four members of the Trustee, including Hollingsworth Wood, Acting Chairman of the Trustees Board, New York; Mrs. Arch Trawick, Tennessee; J. C. Napier, Tennessee; and F. A. McKenzie, President of the University. This committee has been in session for a day and part of a night. It is going carefully into the problems of Fisk University. Order is restored at the University; the school is in session, students are going to classes, many of those who went home during the student walk out are returning to the University. The Committee is advising parents, whose children left during the student walk out, to have them return to the University. The Committee is still in session and it will be ready to render a report to the Trustees Board at its Spring meeting.

SHOT WIFE TO DEATH, THEN ATTEMPTED SUICIDE, BUT ONLY SHATTERED OPTIC NERVE, CAUSING ABSOLUTE BLINDNESS
Roanoke, Va.—A pathetic scene was enacted in the city court room one morning during the past week when Benjamin Arringtoh was brought before the bar of Justice to plead to a charge of firing the shot which cost the life of his wife, Mrs. Sarah Near Arrington. The prisoner felt his way into the court room, being blind from a self inflicted bullet wound in an attempt to end his life after he had fired the shots which killed his wife, with his two small daughters looking on, bewildered beyond speech. Arrington was upset over some domestic affair. He accused his wife of being unfaithful to him. He quarrelled with her and finally decided to end it all.
Giving no warning, allowing the helpless woman no chance for her life, the enraged husband pulled a revolver from his pocket and fired two shots at her. Both bullets entered the woman's body and she crumpled to the floor of her home at the feet of the two little girls. Her career on earth was ended and the children were without a mother to guide them.
Unable to withstand the thought of his awful crime, the husband then pointed the revolver to his own temple and pulled the trigger, falling in a heap upon the floor alongside of the slain wife.
The cries of the distressed little girls, after three reports from the
Acting Treasurer of Beth Of St. John Lodge, Mase Is Samson Lodge Finan
Acting Treasurer of Bethel Church Is Member Of St. John Lodge, Masons, Not Bouyer, And It Is Samson Lodge Finances Being Examined Into
Officers of Samson Lodge, No. 65, have called attention of The Age to a statement contained in the story published in issue of February 21, stating that Walter O. Smith, acting treasurer of Bethel A. M. F. Church, is being asked, as an official of Bouyer Lodge, of Masons, to explain some unsatisfactory conditions with regard to that lodge's finances.
This is incorrect, it appears as Mr Smith is a member of St John Lodge F. A. M., and not Bouyer Lodge, and it is the finances of the Samson Lodge which was found by Smith, that are being examined into.
The Age informant explains that Smith, when he had founded Samson Lodge demitted from St John Lodge and served as worshipful master of the new lodge from its formation in 1922, until St John's Day, 1924, when he was deposed from office. It is alleged, that during this period of his service as master of Samson Lodge, Smith exercises arbitrary and automatic control over all activities, including the money
The lodge treasurer, it is asserted, was not permitted to handle any of the lodge money, and before the two years of Smith's scam had expired, there were

pistol, brought the police, who found the wife dead and the husband in a critical condition. Arrington was rushed to the hospital where he slowly recovered, but his eye sight was totally lost. He was confined to jail, where he told the city coroner the complete story. The bullet that had entered his temple tore through his head and came out near the eye, affecting the optic nerve, which resulted in total blindness. On the day of the atrial the court room was crowded with men and women from all parts of the city. The case was an unusual one in the annals of the colored people of Roanoke. Ben Arrington was the first member of the race to murder his wife and then attempt suicide. He was the first blind murdered ever tried in the city courts.
He was escorted in the court room by a guard from the city jail. The prison guard for Jack Cooper who died in the electric chair for the murder of his step-daughter, Australia Wiley of Salem, Va, some time ago wanted to know what the state could do with Arrington since he was blind. He also thought that it was strange that a helpless blind prisoner should need a keeper. Arrington pleaded guilty and his attorney and the commonwealth compromised on eight years in the penitentiary.
The Church Is Member Sons, Not Bouyer, And It Ences Being Examined Into
rumors of fiduciary discrepancies that came to a head at the session of the 1924 Grand Lodge, when Grand Master Parker, it is alleged, sequestrated all the books of Samson Lodge and ordered the grand lodge auditors to make an examination and report their findings. It is said that Samson Lodge officers have not been able to get an official report from the auditors, but have been told verbally that the books are so muddled that they can get neither heads nor tails from them. In the meantime, Samson Lodge has called on its members to turn in their finance cards or dues books, so that an examination can be made of money credited as dues and taxes, to be checked up against credits that have been entered in the lodge books, as may eventually be revealed when the grand lodge auditors have either reported or turned the books back to Samson Lodge for its own examination.
It is this state of affairs, said to be well known in lodge circles, which was referred to as the basis of criticism by members am Bethel A M E. Church directed against the pastor and trustees who have put the church funds into the hands of Smith as acting treasurer.

The above parody is the gist of the story of the plight of Howard Watkins one of our friends from Dixie, who is being detailed in this volume in Little Ole New York after he came all the way from Nashville, Tenn., via the T. P. & W. (Take Palms and Walk), to better his condition.
He helped offended our New York and the East referred to as God's Country," so as soon as he found himself in the great big city, he was on Friday afternoon, February 20, he went sightseeing by the electric railway, thinking that was a speedier way than the "T. P. & W."
His sightseeing trip, terminated at Jamaica, Long Island, where we met some of the old down home boys, among whom: wrote "hill blifes" and "stick whitlers," who wished to know how lines were down South.
As an inducement to talk ever old times Watkins was treated to some home made Dixie champagne, or dry gun, which went to his head, and after he had consumed as much as he could hold he didn't care what he did, so he left his new acquaintances and found a way into the home of Arthur Ovender, at Farmers avenue and Rockway Boulevard, South Jamaica, which seemed like home again so he decided to sleep there for the night.
There was a dog doing police duty when Watkins forced his presence upon the sleeping Ovenders. The in-
REV. CARPENTER IS GUEST IN BROOKLYN OF CARPENTER CLUB "Y" Trustees Charged With Barring Reception After Women Hired The Hall
A large and enthusiastic audience greeted the Rev. W. Spencer Carpenter former pastor of the Bridge Street A.M. E. Church, Thursday evening, February 19, at Ionic Temple, Brooklyn. Dr. Carpenter, who is now pastoring in Buffalo, came down to Brooklyn at the invitation of the Carpenter Literary Club, of which Mrs. J. Francis Cooper is president.
The spacious Ionic Temple was inadequate to accommodate the huge gathering that attended to testify to the continued popularity of the former Brooklyn pastor.
The officers of the Carpenter Literary Club engaged the spacious auditorium of the Carlton Branch Y. M. C. A. for the occasion, but, it is alleged, were later told that they could not have the use of it. I is alleged that Mr. Comither, secretary of the Branch, informed the ladies of the club that he had to cancel the engagement on account of objections made by certain members of the Board of Management. Consequently, the members of the club secured Ionie Temple, the home of the Prince Hall Masons No one could block that Samuel A. Gubbs was introduced by Mrs. Cooper as master of ceremonies Seated on the platform were Rev. Carpenter; President Elder Chas. E. Wilson, David W. Parker, Grand Master of the F. and A M., George E. Wibecan, P. G E R. of Elks, Dr. Roland R. Johnson, and officers of the Littery Club All of the A. M. E. clergy of Brooklyn were invited as guests of honor, but none appeared except Presiding Elder Wilson, which was commented on by the master of ceremonies
The exercises began with the singing of "The Star Spangled Banner," by the assembly, followed by invocation by Rev Dougherty, Mrs Sarah F Russell sang a solo, Miss Martha R Thomas, of Ithaca, read selections from Douglass and Dunbar, Herman Goss sang a solo, and Mrs K Fassett, secretary, read a symposium of the club.
Rev Carpenter was then introduced amid great applause, and delivered an eloquent address entitled "Frederick Douglass as an Inspiration for today." The address, calculated to inspire the race to go forward, was received with much applause and amene.
Following Dr Carpenter, brief addresses were made by Dr Wilson, Mr Parker, Dr Johnson and Mr. Wubecan, all testifying to the sterling worth of the Rev Dr Carpenter.
After the ceremonies the audience repaired to the dining room of the Temple where a very sumptuous vollation was served by a committee of ladies, under the directions of Mrs M M Merriweather.
The Carpenter Literary Club was founded a little over a year ago by Mrs L. Jones Johnson, an damed in honour of Rev Carpenter. The present officers are Mrs. Cooper president Miss K. Fassett, financial secretary, Mrs. Edith

‘HOW TO REACH THE CHURCHLESS |
| “*he fact that there are a growing number
“of people without church affiliations in New
“York, as in other large cities, has moved the
Federation of Churches to plan for a series
of meetings, to revive religious interest and
wespecially to urge the sending of the child-
~¥en to Sunday School, Arrangements have
been made to hold one of these meetings. at
the Lafayette Theatre, to make a special
appeal to Hatlem parents. Whether a meet-
Sing of this kirid will reach the class of the
“Population who would benefit the most from
"church and Sunday Schoo! attendance Ys
;doubtful. but the experiment is doubtless
<Aworth’ trying,
“, “How to carry the churéh to the masses,
“or to attract the masses to the church is
‘one of the chief problems ofthe home mis-
‘sions. “If a mecting of the sort proposed

and induce parents to send their children

to think that more active measures must be
‘taken. We would suggest that the local

of the sections ff which the people reside,
Circulars should be printed setting forth the
location of the various churches, with the
hours of service and names of pastor and
Sunday School officers A cordial invita-
‘tio to attend salen the children should

* In order to hold the children after they
have once been drawn to the Sunday, School,
the lessons must be made so attractive as
to chlist and hold the attention of the pu-
pils:: This will require the-best efforts of
efficient ‘teachers and wideawake superin-
tendents, All the modern devices of religious
instruction must be provided, in order to
teach the story Of the Bible and the religious
truths exemplified in the teachings of the
Old and New Testaments. Even such
modern inventions as the phonegraph and
moving pictures should be uulzed when
possible
Together with the work of religious in-
struction should be combined appropriate
social features and diversions suitable for
‘the various ages of the pupils. Much de-
pends on the ability of the teachers and their
jadaptability for the work, They may be
‘the essence of piety and perfection and yet
‘unable to gain the affection and. interest of

POR STUDY AND RESEARCH.
This age may he truly described as an
educational era, because of the tendency of
ymany millionaires to turn over their surplus
amillions for educational purposes. In most
cases these millions are devoted to the foupd-
ing of new schools or the extension ani ert
largement of existing institutions, with ad-
{ditional buildings and increased teaching ca-
spacity, Examples of this tendeney are

A DEAD UNIVERSITY.
Een SE Peng We ee eee we were vere
unbiased observers Fisk University is prac-
tically dead for the present scholastic year,
at least. Two-thirds of the students who
walked out in sympathy with the protest
‘of the upper classmen, have returned to their
homes and in all probability will not again
take their places in class. Hardly more than
one-third of the ¢nrollment of five hundred
‘students is expected to be in attendance for
the remainder of the scholastic year, ending
in june. The: trustees who gathered at
Natshville in an attempt to settle the trouble,
refused to issue any formal statemént until
aftef the June meeting, beyond the announce-
ment that they stood behind President
McKenzie in his determination to maintain
Jaw and order.
No action seems to have been taken upon
the demands voiced by the students, which
may be summarized as- follows: The estab-
lishment of a student council, whereby under
a form of student government there would
be a wiping out of petty rules and regula-
tions, including the spy system, for which
would be substitiited an,honor system. An
athletic association, with permission to raise
funds to encourage athletics. A college pub-
lication to allow self-expression among the
students arid encourage the development of
Interary_talent. The right to érganize; col-
lege fraternities and sororities,
‘These demands do not seem to be un-
reasonable, as most of the privileges asked
for are now allowed in the leading colleges
of the country, with advantageous results
both to the students and the institytions
granting them. The honor system. athletic!
sports, college publications and societies are
0 common in most of the larger educational
institutions as to excite comment only by
thejt absence. THese things are vital to the
life’ of the college or university. The reat!
life of any educational institution {s embodied!
in its students.” Unless it has a student
body it is dead. Neither buildings, nor en-
dowment, nor faculty can save it, if_it’ has
not students. .
It may be conceded that President McKen-
zie has labored conscientiously for the past
ten years in the cause of Negro education,
as his supporters claim, but it is equally
obvious that he has lost contact with the
racial viewpoint His usefulness 1s therefore
ended so far as Fisk University 1s concerned
This fact must be realized by the trustees. if
‘they want to save the unmnversity for the
futures ‘Trying to evade the issue or pussy-
footing around the facts, will not save the
situagion or the university. If the students
do not get fair treatment the schoul will diz.

KNOCKING THE NORDIC CULT.
The theory of Nordic superiority, which
was started not long ago as ‘an adjunct 01
variation of the somewhat threadworn the
ories of “white supremacy” and “Anglo-
Saxon domination,” ‘seems to be encounter:
ing some hard knocks of late. As the term
Nordic is appliéd to the Germanic people:
lof Northern Europe, especially the Scandin-
avians, its application in ths counry would
be restricted to a small group of the white
population. But it has been the idea of the
advocates of this cult to extend the goup
so as to include all blonds of the tall long-
headed type. 7
A serious blow to the claim of racial su-
periority for this gidup bas been dealt by
‘Dr. Branz Boas, professor of Anthropology
at Columbia ‘University, in a series of articles
published in the Nation, the liberal yweckly
of this city. In his opening article, Dr.
Boas denied that hereditary mental distine-
tions between races have ever been cstab-
lished. He said:
“The occurrence of heredity mental traits
that beoong to a particualar race hay never been
proved. The availablo evidence makes st much
‘more likely that the same mental traits appear
in varying distribution among the principal
racial groups. The hehavion of an individual
1s therefore not determined. by his racial afta:
Gein. but by the character of his ancestry and Ins
cultural environment. We may judge of the
mental characteristics of families and individuals,
bat not of races.”
A British authority on the same subject.
W. J. Perry. was reported in a London cable-
gram as asserting that the tall blond peo-
ples are dying out in the great urban centers
of England. The Nordic blond progresses
all right in the country, he said. but’ the
dark people thrive and muthply best in the
city, If this keeps on. Mr, Perry thinks
that Alpine and Mediterranean folks will
predominate im Britain, as they did centuries
ago.
In the meantime the poor whites of the
backwoods in the South are languishing and
sulking ‘under the seli-imp)sed burden of
Nordic superiority, which is crushing them
down to ‘the earth. .
INCREASING CONGRESS SALARIES.
‘The action of both houses of the present
Congress in increasing the salaries of mem-
hers of the Senate and House might be amply
justified on the ground of the great increase
m the enst af living since the present rate
was fixed in 1907 The only plansible ground
for eritisicm would be that the present (on-
gress has failed to carn the present rate of
salary. much less to deserve an increase.
The bill passed raised the pay af members
af the Senate and House from $7,500 to
$10,000 a year, of cabinet members from
$12,000 to $15,000 and of the Vice President
from $12,000 to $15,000.
While the legislators evinced a lively in-
terest in increasing their own pay, they were
not so considerate of the welfare. of minor
workers in’ the service of the geverntient
A Washington correspondent of the New
York Herald Tribune said:

that while the Senate increased, it own pay it
failed to tient an increase of $130 a year for

In The Realms of Music By Lucien H. White Chicago Singers In Operatic Recital Presenting "Aida" And "Rigoletto" Excerpts Effectively; Good Audience
Some time ago I learned, that a group of Chicago singers were present excerpts from grand opera in that city and I asked for information as to the success, artistically, attending the production. This information is now at hand.
The performance was on Thursday evening, February 10, at Beverly Baptist Church, of which the Rev. E. T. Martin, is pastor, and is under auspices of Bethesda Circle, Mrs. Elizabeth Brant, president.
A interesting feature of the performance was that the women singers, Florence Cole, Talbert, soprano, and Emma Duckworth, were appearing with Italian male singers, and the result caused the captious criticisms of prejudiced observers that colored and white singers could not blend harmoniously in grand productions. And another interesting fact was disposed—founding the apparent advantage of experience, musical en-
tended supposed superior training, the work of the Italian singers no more commendable or enjoyable than that of the
casion, selections from two operas were given. The was from Verdi's "Aida," the characters represent the Ethiopian Slave" (by Mrs. Talbert), and "Amoo Ethiopia," father of "Aida," captured in battle by the liner, "Rhadames," who loves and is loved by "Aida." on the banks of the Nile, and portrays the persuading her father to induce "Rhadames" to become a traitor The king's role was sung by Eusebio Concialdi, the singers. of the opera was read by Mrs. Olivia Bush-Banks, singers gave the two numbers, "Aida's" song, the romanza, ("My Native Land"), and the duet, "Ciel' mio pa-ma-ny Father").
offering was also from a Verdi opera, the tuneful
long the one chosen. Excerpts from Act I scene 2
2 and Act III scene 1, gave the singers ample scope
the ability, both in solo and ensemble. The indi-
vence were the recitative and duet, between "Gilda"
(iano) and her father, "Rigoloetto" (Mr. Concialdi,
a father's curse on me" and "My Father, thou
titative and duetbetween "Gilda" and "The Duke
on Amoureux, tenor"); and the recitative and
"Lydia" from Act I, scene 2.
from Act II furnished the denunciation song,
zuza dannata" ("Vile Race of Courtiers") by
te le feste' al tempio" ("On every festal morning")
the duet, "Piangi fancuilla" ("Weep, My Child")
and "Lydia."
ferring was from Act III, scene I, opening with the active and Canzone sung by "Rigoletto", "Gilda" and aria, "La donna e mobile" (Woman is changeable) and the popular, eververdant favorite quartet, "Belmore" ("Fairest Daughter of the Graces"), rendered the "Duke," "Rigoletto" and "Maddalena" (Mme. north, contralto). All the singers were said to have lent voice.

E, Gilbert Anderson And Renaissance Combination
On Friday, February 20, 1925, E. GILBERT ANDERSON was 51 years in existence.
This, of course, means that on February 20, 1874, in Still Pond, Kent County, Maryland, a boy, child was born to be a real honest-to-gooodness CONDUCTOR of MUSICIANS.
Friday is also the weekly rehearsal day of the RENAISANCE, THEATRE COMBINATION, under the personal direction of E. GILBERT ANDERSON
- But, however, on Friday, February 20, 1925, after regular rehearsal, the day was punctuated at 4 P. M., SHARP the dinner with E. GILBERT ANDERSON host to the augmented RENAISANCE, THEATRE COMBINATION which in the approach of a REAL THEATRE OF CHESTRA under the CAPABLE ABLE and EXPERIENCED CONDUCTORSHIP of E. GILBERT ANDERSON
The dinner was served in the private dining room on the third floor of the great CULINARY ARTISTS, MRS. and MR E. W CRAIGO, of the GRAIGG CATERING CO. 102- West 130th street, so that settles that, E GILBERT ANDERSON ran true to his old form by having his guests in the contracted hour and won the distinction and compliment at CRAIGGS of being the first private party to do so. JESSE YOUNG, FELIX WEIR LEONARD JETER, GEORGES HAWWOOD, (LAREN E) (Pick) JONES, SAM YI ARWOOD, ARTHUR PHILLIPS, HARRY (Trombone) WILLIAMS, HARRY HARDIN, F. GILBERT ANDERSON and DEACON JOHNSON made up the party. Better and real tangible support in the first plaqueed to E GILBERT ANDERSON as it came to light that the bulk of the monetary consideration for the augmented combination of each Sunday evening, performance fell from the pocket-book of E. GILBERT ANDERSON.
A proposal by FELIX WEIP, emphasizing by LEONARD JETER, suggesting that each member of the regular combination pay two dallors weekly to a fund designed to relieve CONDUCTOR ANDERSON, of the pocket weight, as the weight of promoting and producing the combination was quite heavy enough. The MUSICIANS acknowledged that they owe E. GILBERT ANDERSON for his ability and experience and that they are real glad to pay him by coming to rehearsal on time when called to present under his CONDUCTOR SHIP and continue to prepare them now, bigger and better BUSINESS. Now, there are two statements, yes, pledge in right direction, and we are led to believe that they will be kept, and what is more; they are an contradiction to the too family-friendly MUSICIANS WILL NOT BE HEARSE and WILL NOT SUPPORT ORGANIZATION AND be use of these contradictions you can look forward to something doing.

Before a storage, battery will deliver a current's sufficiently strong, enough to operate a radio set, the active material must be charged. This is done by passing through the let-obey an electric current obtained from some outside source. After a battery is properly charged, it will deliver a direct current when connected to a closed circuit.
Recharging
Where the radio fan is, fortunate enough to have a direct current in his house, he can make a charging outfit without a large expense being incurred. All that is needed are five-110-poundless lamps connected in parallel. There are two leads to the battery. One lead is direct from the electric light circuit, the other is from the charging board. The latter may be ascertained by placing the two leads in a solution of salt and water. Then the current is turned on, and the terminal from which the most bubbles emanate is the negative. This is a very dependable test.

Michigan C. Brown
Addresses Coachmen's
Union League Society
At a recent meeting of the Coachmen's Union League Society their hall, 252 West 138th street. Theodore B. Smith, President of the society, presided. Michigan C. Brown, clerk in the 7th District Municipal Court was invited to address the meeting to which speech J. Daimus Steele, Exalted Ruler of the unantithetan Lodge of Elks, responded in a few words of appreciation in behalf of the officers and members.
Mr. Brown said in part "Mr. President and members of the Coachman's Union League Society, in this building which you have set apart as your home you have at once a monument and a prophecy. A monument because it is a memorial to the efforts of the pioneers of this society who by honoring and struggling do something for posterity prophecy because it a prediction that other societies will emulate the Coachman's Union League Society and secure a permanent home for their future membership. Mr. Brown concluded by reading the following tribute to the immortal Abraham Lincoln "One hundred and sixteen years ago, according to the vague records of the event, Abraham Lincoln was born a child of the southern wilderness, he was brought in an environment of loniness, sorrow and privation.
Design made him the broken-hearted commander in chief of all the embattled Nation turned against his native South, duty drove him through the tragic ordale and at the end fate struck him down and left even his estranged kinsmen and left dumb above his prostitute form. His destiny allowed no counterpart of Abraham Lincoln. On the soul and mind, as well as in the painful career that led marked out for him the world has had no other like him among all its sons who have led mankind from Laden to the present time. The pardons in time may sink beneath the desert sands, the temples of the earth crumble in the dust of ages, the fame of the Caesar's vanish in the darkness of addition, but surely as long as the familiar figure of the many sad-smile, agony, silent, silent, agony written in the lines of his kindly face and love glowing in his wistful eyes—the saddest, gentlest, and most pathetic figure in all human history.
Women's Auxiliary of 369th Inf. Hold Mem. Services for Miss Susan Elizabeth Fraizer
On February 12 a memorial service was held in honor of the late Mrs Susan Elizabeth Reiser, by the Red Cross Unit of the 80th Infantry Women's Auxiliary. The services were held at the headquarters 58 W. 10th street, and were presided over by Mrs Jerolyn Winfield, director, and Mrs Rust, president told of the suspended week done by Miss Frazer while she was president of the auxiliary. A number of the other members made remembrance. The Red Cross Unit was recently reorganized with Mrs Winfield as director, Mrs Amanda Stewart, chairman of the Home Service Department; Mrs Anna Hurt, chairman of the Production Department, Mrs Spo, chairman of Emergency Cnet, Mrs Hawkins, chairman of Loan Classes, and Mrs B B Scott, chairman of Thrift Shops.
fully does a charging rate of more than five amperes. Should this be done all that is necessary to be done is the addition of as many amps as the battery requires. A single lamp is equal to two amperes, two lamps to two amperes each. A word of warning might not be amiss here. Don't charge your battery at too high a rate. To charge the battery at six amperes an hour is plenty high enough. To charge the battery at eight amperes a chance at running the battery. More capacies can for a charging rate of from low to six amperes an hour. It is safer to charge the battery at a lower rate, so that a good charge will be assured.
A Mechanical Rectifier
Where the electric current is an alternating one, a mechanical rectifier must be used to recharged the battery. This instrument is used to transform the alternating current into a direct one. One type of rectifier is a bulb filled with some inert gas, such as argon and containing a hot and cold electrode.
Hinta
The battery should be well taken care of. Distilled water should be added when the level of the electrolyte drops below the top of the plates. If the level of the electrolyte is below that of the plates when the battery is ready to be charged, distilled water should be added before the battery is to be charged. The battery should be tested frequently so that it will not become too rundown.

It was evidenced at this meeting that the men of the Post are awakening to a new interest, and much of the enthusiasm is due to the fact that the ritual work of the organization is being faithfully observed throughout all of the assemblings of the Post. Another contributory factor is that "Ponounality and adherence to a time scheduled occasion the transaction of necessary time limits. It was noteworthy that the Post, on this occasion was dismissed at 11:30 p.m. notwithstanding that after the installation ceremony, speechmaking, and other business transactions had been concluded, there was served to the members and visiting guests a light repast of sandwiches and cocoa, and a pleasant time was had in the new county representative, Coupled Thomas A.

Col. Theodore Roosevelt
And Alderman Jno. W. Smith
Speak at Community Forum
Col. Theodore Rosewell, Attorney W.
Justin Carter, and Alderman John W.
William Smith, were the principal
speakers as the first public meeting of the
community forum, fecally sponsored
by members of Mt. Calvary Methodist
Metholst Church. The meeting was at
Manhattan Casino on Sunday afternoon,
February 22, and was attended by about
400 people.
Col. Rosseysett, who was introduced by George W. Harris, spoke on Americanism in connection with the life of George Washington. He said that great as were Washington's achievements as a soldier, his greatest work came after the close of the Revolutionary War in helping to establish this country as a democracy, so that all its citizens would have the rights and privileges of citizenship. He losing his address he said that he hoped the forced people would share more largely as citizens in the responsibilities of government in the future than they had been permitted to in the past. And that he also hoped they would deserve these rights and privileges in the future as they had in the past. There seemed to have been some misunderstanding among those in charge at the purpose of the meeting. According to the presiding officer, Dr. Charles Hulme, the meeting was to discuss condition of Harlem and how they might be improved. He enumerated some of the things which though needed changing, including more parks public play grounds and better conditions at Harlem Hospital.
Then Alderman Smith, as the representative of Acting Mayer William T. Collins, told the audience that the citizens of this section already had some of the things they complained they wanted that other improvements could be secured by going about getting them in the right way. One complaint was against landlords for the unsanitary conditions of the apartment house. "The remedy for this condition, said the Alderman, is in the hands of the tenants." a complaint to the courts will be violations of the law." He concluded his address by urging more cooperation between the citizens and the public officials.
This speech of Alderman Smith seemed to put an end to the discussion of Harlem conditions. Col. Roosevelt was the next speaker and he was followed by Miss Belle Davis, who told something of the work of The Circle for Negro Relief, of which she is executive secretary.
The best address o f the program was by Attorney W. Justin Carter of Harburg, Pa. who is also president of the Alumni Association of Howard University.

Garner pastor of Grace Congregational Church.
Mr. Carter was eloquent in describing the life of Douglas and telling of his achievement as an orator and agitator in this country and abroad. Because Douglas's residence in this state, he should be especially proud to honor his memory of this great leader, who he characterized as the greatest Negro America has produced. Special music for the occasion was rendered by the Mt. Calvary chorus, under the direction of Leon Adger, organist choirmaster. There was also a violin by the composer of the soprano solo by Miss Corneia Dickson, and several selections by individual members of the chorus.

Education Will Solve Negro Problem, Says White Brooklyn Pastor
The Negro problem is exclusively a problem of the United States, it was declared by Dr. Leon Land, minister of the United Church of Brooklyn, at the Bushwick Forum meeting held last Sunday afternoon at the Ridgewood Matonic Temple, 1054 Bushwick Park. Dr. Land said that segregation is no solution of the problem. He suggested education through social contact, through schools and through progress in religious and progressive industrial efforts. In speaking of the present treatment of the Negro, he declared: "We condemn the Negro for lack of culture and at the same time we prevent him from taking advantage of our cultural development." Since scientists maintain, he said, that there is no such thing as instinctive racial animosity about that antagonism is artificial training and is therefore artificial and eradicable, there is hope for the final satisfactory settlement of the question.
Founder Of Sparta School Seeks Funds In New York
Linton S. Ingraham of Sparta, Ga., who founded the Sparta Agricultural and Industrial Institute fourteen years ago, is in New York seeking funds for further development and expansion of that work. The school was started by the purpose of three acres of the plantation here Mr. Ingraham's father had worked as a slave. Educated by the famous Alexander H Stephens of Georgia, for whose brother, Linton Stevens, the little black boy was named, Ingraham gave up the principalship of Rome City, City Schools in 1910 and with his wife, Anna S. resolved to devote his life to the development of an industrial school along the lines of Tuskegee for benefit of the youth of his native place in Hancock County. They sold their home and put all in the school venture.
From the three acres and a ramshackle cabin the school has grown into the buildings and thirty-five acres of land, with an enrollment last year of 210 pupils, about equally divided between the boys and girls. In addition to the shared school work, the pupils are given grounding in industrial development—girls in domestic science and sewing, the boys in farming and some of the trades. Walker, the late Senator Tong Watson, and many other leading men of the South have endorsed the school, and a New England Council is headed by A. Wright, president Mason-Hamlin H. Graham, and Joseph H. O'Neil, general Trust Co. Boston, as treasurer.

Billups Introduces Bill To Aid Elks And Other N. Y. Fraternal Orders
If a bill introduced by Assemblyman Pane B Billups of the 21st District becomes a law, Exalted Ruler L. Dahman Steele and the Manhattan Lodge, No. 45, will be deprived of the weapon they have used successfully for several months in defying the Grand Lodge officers.
Mr. Billups purposes amending the Benevolent Order Law of this state and to write in the nanties of all the leading fraternal and benevolent organizations among the colored people. When this law was passed the colored fraternal organizations were forbidden from using the insignia of their name, name of the white orders. But Yater a gentlemen's agreement was affected between the white and colored bodies, giving the colored, lodges this privilege
Mr. Steele and his followers have been using the fact that colored fraternal organizations have never had the right to incorporate in New York State, and are therefore without standing, as a club over the heart of the Grand Eagle Lodge, that Mr. Billions, who is exalted ruler of the Monarch Lodge, is determined to have conditions among New York Elks changed.

"Y" Health Department Offers Protection From Health Menace of Season
February and March are hard months for the indoor worker. The severe winter weather has grown monotonous; the slushy, wet streets and dirty little piles of snow are hard to look upon longer with philosophy and overshoes are our most distasteful possessions. Spring seems much farther away than in Dec. and January, and in hope it must look as if we might be a little more fortunate with our weather this year as the Sun is shining gloriously now. Even so, the girl who works in office, store or factory usually finds herself, at a very low cub physically this time of the year. She is tired from the strain of winter and beginning already to feel the latitude of Spring. To feel the latitude of gripe, which may this year be pecuniary, some precaution should be taken during the next few months.
Proper exercise, combined with wholesome food and sufficient sleep, in a well ventilated room, will go a long way towards avoiding illness. Our Health Education Department offers expert advice along these lines and a proper course of exercise for each individual. The Tuesday night gym class offers a splendid general course and the pool is, as ever, unfailing its resources for health and pleasure. A swim in the shimmering blue water makes one forget that she is not at Palm Beach!
Detailed information concerning the work of the Health Department may be secured at the information desk in the lobby. And before we leave the pool of the Leader's Recreation Course which is extremely popular, it is beneficial, too, not only for the things learned, but also for the exercise gotten in the learning of them! The class meets each Thursday night from 8:45 to 10, and there is still room for few registrations.
The Membership Rally will close with a reception to members—new and old—on Tuesday, March 3 All members are cordially invited to attend.
