Walter Lee Rounds was tried before Judge Gordon on an assault charge, preferred by Miss Margaret D Stoddard, and was sentenced to serve not less than 13 years and six months, nor more than 27 years in the Eastern Penitentiary. Rounds was convicted on three indictments. It took the jury only three quarters of an hour to agree on the verdict, which found the defendant guilty on all counts, except the one charging "assault and battery with intent to kill." In sentencing the prisoner the judge said "Rounds, your offence was most atrocious. It is the kind of offence that demands a severe penalty. The verdict of the jury is satisfactory to the court. I feel the, verdict represents truth and justice. You are not the only man who has made attacks of this kind, but fortunately such men as you are rare. The punishment meted out to you must not only be because of the offense you committed, but as a warning to others." Miss Stoddard who accused Rounds of the brutal attack is an 18-year old girl from Savannah. The defendant was an elevator operator in a "gown show in South 13th street."

Trouble In Ranks of New York's Elkdom Has Been Settled By Manhattan Lodge's Officers Paying Fine Levied By Ex. Ruler The clouds in Eklodom's skies, appearing so dark and forbidding a few weeks ago, with regards to conditions here in New York City, have been dislipated and the atmosphere appears to be cleared up. The differences between Grand Exalted Ruler J. Finley Wilson and J. Dalmus Steele, exalted ruler of Manhattan Lodge. No. 45 have been settled amicably and all parties are apparently satisfied. This is gleaned from the official proclamation (No. 3, Series 3) sent out under date of February 28 by the exalted ruler from his office, 907 U street northwest, Washington, which told briefly of the trouble and its settlement. Exalted Ruler Wilson states in his proclamation that "Acting upon a misinterpretation of the relative powers of the Grand Lodge, in or out of session, and a local lodge in an election or installation of its officers, the Manhattan Lodge objected to the exercise of legal and constitutional powers and authority of the Grand Exalted Ruler on the occasion of their regular annual election, December 11, 1924." Having been invited to be present on that occasion, the Grand Exalted Ruler exercised his full rights and powers and was met by the conduct of some since disciplined and excused members who had been unsuformed as to their rights and the plain letter of the law. "There was no rebellion but a misinterpretation of the law which led them to believe the Grand Exalted Ruler to be acting arbitrarily when in fact he was acting as he always has acted and will act according to the written law and constitution which gives to him the power to function as the Grand Lodge in the recess of that body, and to act personally or through his deputies or organizers either at the election of a new body or a chartered one. "The Manhattan Lodge regretted its unfortunate hostility, and its delegates to Washington, after passing the light fine which was imposed, were excused and remanded in their old position as the "Pride of New York City". The election, under the guidance of the Deputy Grand Exalted Ruler David McDaniel, was held February 20 and the brothers may go happily and unitedly on their legal way to success, harmony and honor."

MARCH 21 79th St. Pyromaniac Sent To Bellevue Hospital For Observation—Fought Cops 79th St. Pyromaniac Sent To Bellevue Hospital For Observation—Fought Cops James Clark 2148 Fifth avenue, was sent to the Bellevue Hospital after he had endangered the lives of a score of roomers on a furnished room house at 108 West 29th street. He was charged with having set fire to a pile, rudish in the basement of the house which caused the roomers to rush from the rooms and seek safety in the street. William Stubbs, the proprietor of the house, alleges that he caught Clark in the basement and that Clark gave him a fight and that policemen and firemen rescued him from the crazy man and bound him with ropes, after which the delirious man was transported to the psychopathic ward in Bellevue Hospital. 5000 Local Subscribers Added In Past 2 Months WHEN you have Apartments and Rooms To Let and want Desirable Tenants ADVERTISE IN The New York Age We go into more homes direct than any other paper in Greater New York or New Jersey. 230 W 135th St. New York Telephone Bradhurst 0864 Lenox Ave. Families Made Homeless By Fire Which Destroyed 5-Story Tenement Eight families were made homeless and several barely escaped being burned to death in a fire which partly destroyed the five story tenement house at 468 Lenox avenue about 4 o'clock Monday morning. The crowd which gathered witnessed several thrilling rescues and saw a man drop dead from excitement. Thomas Swakey, foreman of the Consolidated Gas Company emergency crew, 52 years old, dropped dead on the sidewalk in front of the burning building Dr. Kleinfopf of Harlem Hospital said death was apparently due to heart disease or apoplexy brought about by excitement attending the fire. The fire started in the basement beneath the hooch joint which occupies one of the stores on the first floor. It spread rapidly to the second floor and was discovered by Mrs. Gonacky, who occupied an apartment on the third floor. She attracted the attention of Patrolman Charles Reilly, who turned in the first alarm, but found it impossible to enter the building. Because of the intense smoke and flames, he blew his police whistle and aroused some of the Tenants and Mr. and Mrs. Gonacky aroused others. Saved Parrot And Canary Engine Company 59 and Hook and Ladder 40 arrived. An airladder was housed to the upper stories and rescue work begun. Mrs. Hanna Ling, 70, her daughter, Mrs. Mary Adams, 59 and granddaughter, Winfried, 18, were trapped on the top Three of four shopkeepers in the Columbus Hill section managed in some way to get what was reputed to be advance information as to the Clearing House reports for a certain day about two weeks ago, and so learned that 318 was the "number" The four men played this number with three bankers in that neighborhood and are reported to have cleaned up the neat sum of $16,000 And the bankers paid them off, too, but declared at the time that another such raid upon their finances would be met with a failure to pay So when, a short while after, there was a heavy concerted play on the number 110, which was the Clearing House number that day, one of the bankers, located, it was allured, on West Oak street, quietly disappeared and the players who had the winning number have been whistling for their money ever since. This banker, although he did business in the Columbus Hill section, was declared to be living in Harlem. In the meantime, the police officials are making an active crusade against both bankers and players, bringing about a number of arrests, the operators being picked up in business places and private homes alike. In one case, the officers raided a dressmaker's apartment, that of 119 Brown 117 West 141st street, apartment 24, and arrested, the Brown woman, together with several other women who were alleged to have been playing "police." This raid was made on March 7. On March 10, Officer Walton arrested Winn Day of 265 West 130th street at 1:7 West 142nd street, charging that he was engaged in police playing, and Officer Robinson apprehended John Washington of 250 West 139th street charging him with policy playing on those same premises. The police are making a determined effort to clean up the "numbers" situation, and the officers attached to the 10th Precinct are especially active in this particular. The arrest of George Hardy, 32, of 174 West 179th street, charged with having held up and robbed John Sweney of 210 West 140th street of $40 on March 5, is regarded by some of those faguar with the situation as having some connection with the police game. It is intimated that some of the holdup men are led to engage in their petrarian activities through a desire to secure funds with which to finance their numbers playing. The regular devotee of the game finds it difficult to keep sufficient funds on hand to make daily plays and then follows a resource to the holdup method of replenishing the financial supply.

In her hand she carried a parrot and canary, but they were forced to leave their bull pup, Snops in the apartment and he was suffocated. A Jewish family occupied the fourth floor apartment and the wife was also brought down the ladder by two firemen—the weighed 250 pounds and the firemen almost lost their balance before they reached the street. The other tenants escaped by the root and fire escapes but most of them lost their household belongings by the fire or had them badly damaged by water. The Gonackov family had a strong box, containing insurance and other valuable papers and some money. They allege that this box was broken into by firemen and the money taken. The other papers were found down the dumb waist shaft. Police reserves had to be called to hold the crowd that gathered in check.

It was also announced that the expense of procuring this evidence, totalling, above $1,500, had been borne personally by Mr Buckner, who evidently dined, danced and drank with his young assistants and their wives was given over to making the rounds among these gay and devilish places To Get "Higher Ups" The new United States Attorney has declared that it will be his policy to make his attacks directly upon the "higher ups", and that little attention will be paid to the underlings in the bootlegging game. The arresting of waiters, bartenders and other subordinates, said he, serve only to clog up the court calendars, and fining these men is a futile policy. "The padlock law is by far the best provision of the prohibition law for combating the liquor evil," he said. "The knowledge that a place may be padlocked is a great deterrent to those who propose to go in for the sale of liquor. "It roots a lot of money to move from one place gayly decorated palaces to another place with the heavy hand of the padlock law hanging over a man he hesitates a while before investing any considerable amount of money in a bootleg establishment." Filing Civil Snita "The suits are all civil," he said, "charging these places with being nuisances. After their answers to our complaint, whatever those answers may be, it is up to the court to decide whether or not an auction will allow the sale of liquor by any or all individuals on the premises named." "Following this in a violation is discovered, the violator, whether he be water or proprietor, may be sent to jail for contempt of court and the judge may in his desertion padlock the place as a public nuisance an grant those padlocks at once if they best in the opinion of the judge." Conference With Officers Following this action, Mr. Buckner held a conference last Sunday with prohibitively enforcement and police officials at the Bar Association Building, 42 West 44th street, after which it was given out that 1,000 cafes and speakeasies would be listed for closing under padlock injunctions. These under padlock injunctions by R Q Merckr, federally prohibited by National enforcement head, against which cases have already been made. Merckr declared that evidence in hand was sufficient to start proceedings against these places, and so the 1,000 cases now on the books, against waiters and partenders as a rule, will be placed with Assistant United States Attorney John Cashin, who is to change the docketing and list them under padlocking proceedings with as many as fifteen arrests, said Mr Buckner, and he says that such a record will make padlocking the joint an easy process. Harlemites Are Interested Harlemites will watch this phase with interest, as some of the most notorious booch joints and speakeasies in the city have been operating openly and boldly on Seventh and Eighth Avenue, especially congestion—2360 Seventh avenue at 139th street—in that police records show at least 19 arrests from that one resurf 'Thin' the cafe run by Frank Bastian, an African hoofleggers who owns and operates a chain of speakeasies and particular ones in a building owned and controlled by a colored man, Robert Wallis, who is prominently a associated in church work as a member of one congregation and president of a locum conducted in another. Ask For Special Judge Assistant U.S. Attorney Lashin will have the aid of two other assists T. F. Bellinger and E. A. McCurek and M. Burckner is planning to have a special judge assigned to the judge at the paddock case. If this is done the first hearings are to be set for April. "The essence of the padlock pro gram," Mr. Buckter said, "is that you have to determine your cases promptly. When we begin functioning, the defender will be allowed twenty days to file his defense and no longer. There will be no extension. It will be possible, thirty days after procuring evidence against a liquor dealer, to padlock his establishment" List of Hooch Joints MADISON AVE—2064; 2096.

Education Week At State College, Orangeburg, Is Marked By Big Assemblage Orangeburg, S. C.—President R. S. Wilkinson is gradually improving, but he is not yet able to resume active college work. More than five thousand school children, parents and farmers gathered on our campus Friday, February 12, and took part in a celebration of Education Week. The movement was prompted by George W. State Agent of Negro Demonstration Work. Every colored school in the county was represented by a large delegation / A parade, led by the State College Band, composed of the children, was an inspiring sight W. A. Schiffley, County Superintendent of Education, addressed the meeting at the college authority. During the afternoon audience contested the various rural schools were entered into, and prizes given the winners A conference of the Smith-Leaver Farm Demonstration Agents was held at the college two days. These men came, at the call of H. J. Daniels, to discuss plans for a state work work environment. State Annie present were J. E. Dickson, Richland County; Jason Maloney; Sumter County; W C Bunch, Spartanburg County; W B Harrison, Anderson County, S C Dasher, D勒堡 County; Jesse Wilson, Greewood County; Benj I Harnwell, Beaufort County, and G W Daniels, Orangeburg County. The laying of the cornerstone of the Young Women's Christian Association building was an inspiring exercise. The building is to cost $5,000 which is being raised by campus members of the organization. The principal address was given by Rey R. Bregdon of the A M F Church. The Amy M. Men Christian Association sent four representatives from the high school department to attend the Colored Older Boys Conference at Allen University, Columbia. The debating teams under direction of A H Gordon, are preparing to meet the teams of Virginia Normal and North Carolina A and T Colleges in Orangeburg and Greensboro, April 18, in their annual Tri State Contest.

With a schedule of five games with White and Colored "Y" Girls Hold First Judo Conference, Abantown Allentown, PA—As an experiment in working out better race relations, the colored and white girls of the Y. W. C. A. men for the first time Saturday and Sunday, February 21 and 22, in the Mid-Winter Industrial Co-op conference, was the culmination of a long and interesting process of evolution. At one time the white and colored girls held separate conferences, the colored girls usually sat Cheyney, the white girls at Allentown. Their only means of contact was through a telegram of greetings, the telegram they progressed to the point where the white colored girls exchanged greetings through delegates. Finally a joint conference of white and colored girls was called to discuss the question of holding joint conferences of white and colored girls instead of the separate conferences. It was agreed that a common conference should be held. This was the first. A Philip Randolph was invited to address the Conference on "New Race Relations for Old." He suggested that the conference go on record in the form of a resolution favoring and demanding that Bryn Mewr College, in whose charter exists a provision against colored girls being admitted as students, open its doors to colored girls, and that committee be selected from the conference to present same to the Joint Administrative Committee of the college which controls the policy of the summer school. It was unanimously adopted The resolution required that a copy be sent to all of the Y W C. A conferences, requesting them to take similar action. The conference had a happy and delightful time discussing and actually working out better race relations. Tuskegee Students Hear Miss Derricotte Tell Of Y. W. C. A. Work Abroad Tuskegee Institute, Ala.-An important joint meeting of the Y. M. and Y. W. C. A. cabinets was held in the sitting room of White Hall on Sunday evening, March 1, after chapel. The meeting was called for the purpose of giving these two important groups of young people a chance to meet with Miss Derricotte of the National Committee of the Y. W. C. A. Miss Derricotte gave in the most graphic manner, lived expressions of her experiences in Europe when she was a delegate to the World's Student Convention at High Leigh, England. She told of the cooperation which exists between students of both sexes in Europe, stating that in the schools and colleges, there is no separate Christian organization for each group such as exists in America in the form of the Y. M. and Y W. C. A., but instead a Christian Student Movement. Under the auspices of such an organization, she said, young men and young women meet together on one common platform and help solve the problems of school life and help of the world. After relating these facts, and a good many others that are vital to student life and to the world, Miss Derricotte asked for expressions from those present as to their views on the things talked about. Several stated in the most interesting and intelligent manner their views, centering their thoughts on the cooperative idea as it exists in Europe. They were convinced that more could be accomplished if women would work together to a larger degree, with trust and confidence in each other. Miss Derricotte thought that because of the great influence Tuskegee Institute is exerting on the educational thought of America and of the world, and because of the extent to which leadership is expected of this institution, the young men and young women who are students within its walls should get together under campus problems and also world problems and jointly help in their solution. Before the meeting with members settled from both associations to go carefully into the matter of finding out the best method of approach to the cooperative idea.

One Major Assertion That Rents Are No More Extortionate Than When Apartments Rented To Colored Were Filled By Whites Real estate agents in Harlem are evidently engaged in a propaganda to justify the present high rentals, judging from published and written statements accredited to some of them in the past few weeks. It is alleged by these men that colored tenants, occupying houses formerly given over to white tenancy, are not paying more than white tenants are paying in other sections for similar housing accommodations. One realtor goes further, and states definitely in writing that "rents in Harlem, with a few exceptions, are not any more extortionate now than the white tenants paid for the identical apartments that are now occupied by colored tenants, twenty to twenty-five years ago." This latter statement, however, is denied flatly by those familiar with conditions in Harlem. It is asserted that in not one single instance have Negro tenants supplanted whites but that there has been an appreciable increase in the mean derbation. In some instance this increase is less than in other cases, and it is emphatically-asserted that a 50 per cent average increase, at the least, has been made in this class of renting property. Contrasting Rentals. Specific instances are cited where apartment buildings occupied by whites tenants have been opened to colored occupancy before the white tenants were gotten rid of. In such cases, and there have been a number, the old rental rate, ranging from $20 to $45, for four to six room apartments, has been paid by the whites remaining, while the colored tenants, newcomers, have been assessed $30-35 to $0-75. Of course, there is a difference in the ratio of comparisons according to the location and desirability of the properties. But there is a difference in the proportion that the upward advance in cases where property has been changed from white to colored tenancy has been the general rule and not the extension. The difficulty of agents and janitor, coupled with the shortsightedness of many of the tenants, has created another condition which is anomalous. That is, in many instances, apartments in the same building offering the same number of rooms, with identical convenience, bring different rentals. Sometimes, to get an apartment, a person will offer more than is being asked, or more than is being paid on other tenants. The experience of one woman seeking an apartment was that she was shown rooms for whom the agent quoted a rental charge of $65. The would be tenant argued that it was more than the rooms should not be more than $65 per month. The agent apparently saw the reason ableness of the woman's argument, and was seemingly about to agree to allow the concession. But just at this juncture, another would be tenant came in, and inquired as to the rental charge for the particular rooms under discussion. The agent quoted the original price—$65 Service The Keynote of This Great Business Institution "Cheap Enough.' Said Tenant. "Why," said the newcomer, "that is cheap enough, and I'll take the rooms at that rental." Naturally, the agent lost no time in entering into an agreement with the woman who thought, $65 was cheap rental for the rooms, and the first rooms seeker had to retire discomfited from the scene. The prospective tenant had entered into a verbal agreement with an agent to take over an apartment, of about average desirability, for $85 a month. But before the contract was consummated, another customer approached the agent and asked about the apartment. When told that the rooms were already spoken for, the customer inquired as to what rent had been agreed upon. Told that the figure was $85, the rent was promptly raised, the new customer telling the agent that she would gladly rent the apartment for the place. And of course the verbal agreement with first would be tenant was promptly forgotten and the $100 tenant got the apartment. Inumerable instances of a similar character are reported, and in not a single instance has evidence come to light to show that colored renters have been put into rooms formerly occupied by the same rate of rent paid by the whites. Janitora Want Tips The multilingual of tenants by janitors is another unpleasant phase of the situation. It is charged that in many cases when there are apartments vacant in a building, the janitor will show courteous consideration only to those prospective tenants who are liberal enough to give him substantial tips. If there is a withholding of largess the chance of getting an apartment is correspondingly slim. This has no reference to the bonus sometimes required by janitors, but is an additional and unchatted charge upon the tenant by the avaricious caretaker. The possibility of a drop in rental values within the near future is being taken care of through the simple expedient of requiring would be tenants, in some cases, to sign a two years' lease, and, in addition, to out up the equivalent IMPERIAL LODGE, ELKS, CELEBRATES FIRST ANNIVERSARY DEDICATING NEW ELK HOME IMPERIAL LODGE, ELKS, CELEBRATES FIRST ANNIVERSARY DEDICATING NEW ELK HOME 14th ANNUAL CLINIC AND 8th MEETING JOHN A.

William P. Hayes, pastor of Mt. Olivet Baptist Church, delivered the anniversary sermon, and Salem Female Octet, under direction of Rudolph Grant, rendered special music. A apprano solo was rendered by the Rev. William Bates Temple, with accompaniment by Daughter Helep Bates Williams, also of Eureka Temple. Rev. Hayes referred to the failures that have attended some of the largest Negro business enterprises during the past few months, and said that despite these failures this was no time for persistence. "Every man must understand the science," he said, "he must and we must keep trying if we are to win ultimate success." He complimented the members of the Imperial Lodge far the Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—The Journeenth annual clinic and the eighth annual meeting of the John A.

A general statement concerning old-law tenements in Harlem bring a higher rent than do similar houses in other sections. New-law buildings, walk-ups, are declared to show the same condition. If there is any merit in the realtor's contention, say those familiar with the situation, it is only with reference to the highest class of properties, elevator apartments, with high electricity, with high electricity, and other elements of particular service to the tenants. Colored tenants occupying this last referred to class of apartments in Harlem are being required to pay from $20 to $1250 a month for each room. For instance on Edgereum and St Nicholas avenues, there are buildings in which two rooms are $65, four rooms, $115. In each case kitchenette privileges are provided, but this facility is contained in a closet space which is cut off from one of the rooms by sliding or opening. But there is at least one house in Harlem, lacking elevator and telephone service, but in which the top notch of rental charges is reached. One room and kitchenette bring $45, a month, and two and three rooms are proportionately increased. Other buildings, similar to this last one, are being projected to meet the needs of the man or woman roofer, whose needs are not sufficient for the larger size apartments WHY NOT GET THE BEST?

Key Washington Louisville, Ky.-At a recent meeting of the Fisk Club of Louisville, the members discarded the present difficulties at the school, and as a result, the following strong and biting resolutions, were unanimously adopted and ordered-aent to the Board of Trustees of Fisk. With sacred devotion to Fisk University and its ideals, as we have known, them, a desire to see these perpetuated, believing, that our Alma Mater holds a unique and lofty place in the forward movement of America, believing that the principles of, Merrill, and Cravath, upon which the institution, has grown to supremacy among schools of its kind, and further believing that Fisk University and its purpose is bigger, greater, and nobler, than any other or group who may happen to be charged with, the administration of its affairs, and while guessing that our abiding faith in Fisk is shaken, but not destroyed, by the present administration, we the Louisville Fisk Club, in special session assembled, after having heard direct evidence from students and our own representatives, who was on the scene of the institution, do petition the Board of Trustees as follows: 1. Whereas 'The present, rupture and its origin more than seven years ago in the S. A. T. C., when Fisk lost several students who have since proven themselves worthy of their place. Mater: 2. Whereas, "The President has stubbornly and persistently continued refusing his ruinous policy for several years and friends of the institution, but has preferred counselors from person whose views are known to be monotonous with those of the Fisk University; to touch Whereas, His autocratic policy during the several years of his incumbency as President has recorded one endless process of unjust acts and even insults to students, alumni, and friends of the institution; 4 Whereas these charges in evidence take these charges in any section of our country, and has resulted in those loyal to Fisk preferring to send their sons and daughters to other states, he has further resumed in creating criticism of the institution; harm. Whereas, Young women, daughters of our first families, were paraded up an alley to receive insults, and furnish entertainment for a group of white citizens from whom the President sought favor. 6. Whereas, We believe the present student uprising to be the logical and inevitable outcome of a policy of arrogant oppression of student activities. rights and act. 7. Whereas. It is obvious the President dignifiedly erred in sounding a riot call, which brought squads of policemen with riot guns to the campus, who battered down doors, assaulted and abused defenseless students entrusted to his care, to silence harmless demonstration of a few students marching and singing the campus. 8. Whereas, He caused the arrest of five young men, duly elected representative of the student body, who were manly and intelligent enough to present with dignity a written petition: 9. Whereas, After the arrest of the student on charges of inciting to riot, he signally failed to substantiate these charges, and further emphasized the weakness of his position, which we believe is tantamount to a confession of blunder and signing his own indictment, by giving to each of the five honorable dismissals the institution: from 10. Whereas, His and the action of those of his assistants concurring in this policy, instead of promoting interracial good will, and the welfare of the erroneous newspaper which-institution, he had raced race hatred and bias, but been corrected by the law, but augmented by the statements. 11. Whereas, We believe that his entire conduct during this most unfortunate occurrence is a severe indictment of his ability to safely and wisely administer the affairs of the institution with firm dignity, and yet in a manner to command respect, and confidence of students, alumni, and the general public; 12. Whereas, The President's action in the present student demonstration finds neither precedent nor justification in the sixty years of the glorious achievement of our Vhuri Mater; 13. Whereas, We believe that the institution will face a still greater crisis, than the present loss of the student body, namely, its ultimate incumbent is continued as President; Therefore, be-it resolved, that We urge, the immediate removal of Dr. Fayette Avery McKenzie a President of the institution, and the election of a man of vision, training and experience with a sympathetic view of race relations, of character, and personality, that will serve as an inspiration to students and alumni, thereby-restore the institution, which its students must come, and restore the pride and faith its alumni have in its purposes, and ideals, and finally, rebuild Fisk University on the firm foundation so well laid by its illustrious, founder, Paul D. Crawath. Be it further resolved. That a copy of these resolutions be immediately forwarded to the Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Fisk University, and published in the public, press for information to the general public. W. H.

THE_AGE WANT ADS SEQURE RESULTS It will profit-you-to read and use $1,000,000 FROM J. D. ROCKEFELLER JR. TO HAMPON-TUSKEGEE FUND DRAWS FLOOD OF COMMENT FROM LEADING CITIZENS The announcement made by the Hampton-Tuskegee Endowment Fund that John D. Rockefeller jr. had contributed personally $1,000,000 to be used unconditionally for the advancement of education among Negroes drew a flood of message characterizing the gift as the beginning of a new era in racial conditions in this country. "Mr Rockefeller's gift to the $5,000,000 fund now being raised," a telegram from Chick Justice William Howard Taft read, "is a noble one-and gives the strongest reason to hope that the $1,500,000 yet to be raised by Jainary 1, 1926, may be secured." "Those of us who have studied the influence of Hampton and Tuckegge know how much this support or those two institutions means in the solution of the race question" in this country. The story of Hampton and Tuckegge beginning with Armstrong and, continuing with Frissell and Booker T. Washington and Moton and Gregg Ewing, elevating inspirational vanities and substitutes the brightest hope for the discouragement that, in times past, has affected lovers of this country in respect to the future of the Negro and his usefulness as a citizen. "The friends of Hampton and Tuskegee and of Negro education in the South in general are to be highly congratulated, a message from Charles W. Elliot, president emeritus of Harvard University, said, "on the extraordinary success of the movement to add largely to the number of the easiest of the best institutions. Mr Rockefeller's and Mr. Eastman's guts (George Eastman had pledged $2,000,000 if the schools succeed in raising $5,000,000 by the end of 1925) will mean much to the cause of Negro education, both how and through a long future, and that cause means much to the progress of industrial and political peace between whites and blacks in the Republic." Among the other expressions of satisfaction received by the new Baker, former Secretary of War, Governor E. Lee Trunk of Virginia, Johns Rosewall, in Chicago George P. Peter Beadby and Dr James E. Grege, principal of Hampton Institute. "Constructive" Baker's Comment "The splendid gritty," Mr. Baker wired, "of the Mr. Rockefeller and Mr. Eskman to the so-called Hampstead Tuskegee Endowment Fund挖险 the possibilities, of the most constructive and valuable work done in America by public beneficence in many years has seemed to me more constructive or of longer permanent value." "I am more than delighted," said W. H. Perry, Jr. . Race Problem Vanishing. NASHVILLE DOCTORS REPUDIATE SUMLIN'S ATTACK ON STUDENTS Rock City Academy Demands His Summary Removal As Head Of Body Nashville, Tenn.—Because of statements, which contained serious reflections upon the moral character of students at Fisk University, Dr. W. Sullin will probably be summarily removed from the presidency of the Rock City Academy of Medicine and Surgery. This is predicated in the action taken by the organization in a meeting held at the C.C. School, and attributed to Dr. Sullin and published in the city newspapers were read and denounced. Dr. J. T. Phillips was outspoken in his denunciation of Dr Sullin, and characterized the latter's utterances as constituting a serious reflection upon all the rce. Sullin was most scathing in his statement as to reputed actions and conduct of the Fisk students, and he also took issue with those of the Nashville citizenry whoided with the students, and Dr. Phillips, and other memoirs. The Academy was taking the position that Sullin has violated the dignity and ethics of the organization and has in consequence become stiff undesirable element Resolutions were adopted calling for his removal from the presidency and indefinite, suspension from membership in the organization. Dr D. H Turpan, vice-president, presided at the meeting. --- Governor Trinkle, "to learn that John D. Rockefeller Jr. is making a contribution of $1,000,000 to the Hampton Tuskegee Endowment Fund." This is certainly an evidence of the fact that he is genuinely interested in the development of the Negro of the South and in preparing him, through teaching and practical training, to satisfy and enlighten the students of North Carolina, Georgia and other progressive states of the South which wish the Negro well." "The entire Negro race," read the message of Mr. Rosenwald, "which at the present time, standing on tupon, eager to receive educational help, will be tremendously benefited by the $1,000,000 contribution of Mr. Rucke-jeller, just announced. With the inspiration of this splendid gift, I feel sure that other thoughtful Americans will respond generously to the appeal to $1,500,000 still needed to secure the additional $2,000,000 from Mr George Lastman, which is conditional upon $2,000,000 being raised." Nation's welfare Involved. "The gift of Mr. Rockefeller to the Hampton-Tuskegee University Fund," was the comment of Mr. Peabody, is characteristic of him, both in its munificence and in its wisdom. He recognizes that the welfare of the whole country is involved in the progress of the Negro race, and that, as Booker I. Washington said, a country which was not safe with ignorant slaves cannot be with ignorant freemen. Rockefeller's benefaction aid toward the completion of the $5,000-000 fund required to secure Mr. Eastman's gift is simply the latest and most striking evidence of his deep and sympathetic interest in the whole cause of Negro education and prospest. Dr. Gregg declared, "and is a much valued expression of his faith in the Hampton-Tuskegee type of training for life." Passaic, N. J. Rev. S. V. Daunel, pastor of Mt.

SAYS HAMPTON IS MODEL FOR BRITAIN Dr. Moton Guest At Tea For Tuskegee-Hampton Drive At Rockefeller Home Mr. and Mrs. John D Rockefeller Jr., were hosts at a tea at their home, 10 West 54th street, in baskell of the Hampton-Tuskegee endowment fund, now conducting a $5,000,000 drive. P. Whitwell Woolman, one time member of the British Parliament, spoke on the work of the two schools. The Hampton quartet sang plantation spirituals and folks songs. Dr Robert R Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, and Dr James E. Gregg, head of Hampton, gave brief informal talks. There were 175 guests. "The chief cause of war today is not territory of frontier conflicts, but rivalry of race," said Mr. Wilson. That the United States has to face is that race like climate, begins at home. The real race problem lies far deeper than politics, commerce or migration. It is personal, social and spiritual. As long as the Negro was ignorant a true civic contact with him was difficult and there was occasional violence. Education Aida Brotherhood. "The growing ability of interracial committees in the Southern States depends upon a certain balance of brain and character between the white and colored members of those bodies.

MAGIC HEALING IN HARLEM In flaring headlines running across the page, one of the Harlem weeklies is announced a meeting to be held by a so-called single healer, who is hailed as the "famous healer of lame, deaf, dumb, blind and sick" healer, who is a white woman, is represented by a portrait showing her in an image of prayer, "in one of her fighting moods laying against evil spirits." Her claim is that the power given her comes as a direct inspiration from God, "and that through her, which she transmits as a medium to those who will have faith in the omnipotent God, the afflicted are cured and the inflictions of man are made perfect by Healing grace." It is reported that this healer has preached great crowds of both races, in many of large cities. It is said that as result of prayers crutches have been thrown away the pile, wheel chairs have been abandoned and the afflicted that were converted have the meetings singing praises. How last of these recoveries and these conversions does not appear, but the weight of medical testimony shows that such miraculous cases are seldom lasting. It is admitted that certain nervous disorders are susceptible to temporary improvement through violent options excited by outside influences, but it is the most that can be hoped for from such proceedings. The belief that such disabilities as blood poisoning, rheumatism, blindness, deafness, twisted ligaments, torn muscles and sprains can be successfully treated by the laying on of hands by a professional of this sort, is evidence of the survival of the faith in the miraculous that flourishes in the middle ages. But it does seem some that misplaced in this day of modern society and free hospital treatment. The fact is a newspaper of any pretensions to self-assert can hold out such inducements in ignorant and credulous is the saddest part of the performance. Of course this healing must be a lucrative profession, even if the monetary reward is limited to the freewill offerings of the affected sufferers who believe that they have a permanent cure. There does not appear to be any way to prevent such explosion of human suffering and human credit. Even the scoffling unbeliever in mirrors who suffered for years and vainly sought relief, will in desperation take a chance for itself or some loved one in the unseen power of the self-proclaimed healer. Hope I faith may induce the temporary belief that a cure has been effected, only to be dilled when the excitement dies down. The promise of miraculous healing by rosary evangelists is too good to be true. The chief result of such performances is to fill the markets of the healers and to plunge the flowers deeper in the slough of despair. The whole business is only another form of exploitation of the ignorant, prompted and assisted by mercenary considerations. There is against all forms of exploitation of the vice, whether it be such an ancient device as miraculous healing or more modern forms of chicanery. In flaring headlines running across the front page, one of the Harlem weeklies announced a meeting to be held by a so-called magic healer, who is hailed as the "famous healer of lame, deaf, dumb, blind and sick." This healer, who is a white woman, is represented by a portrait showing her in an attitude of prayer, "in one of her fighting moods praying against evil spirits."

It is said that as result of her prayers cratches have been thrown away by the pile, wheel chairs have been abandoned and the afflicted that were converted have left the meetings singing praises.

AN INDUSTRIOUS LEGISLATOR If the number of bills introduced is a failure of the industry of a legislator, Assessor Pope B. Billups deserves well of his institutes. We have received copies of the measures introduced by Mr. Billups, each which has been read once and referred to appropriate committee. The first of the bills was introduced on February 3, being ended an act to confess jurisdiction upon the court of claims to hear, audit and determine claim of Danny Bennett against the state damages alleged to have been sustain If the number of bills introduced is a fair gauge of the industry of a legislator. Assemblyman Pope B. Billiupa deserves well of his constituents. We have received copies of five measures introduced by Mr. Billiupa, each of which has been read once and referred to an appropriate committee. The first of these bills was introduced on February 3, being entitled an act to confer jurisdiction upon the gourd of claims to hear, audit and determine the claim of Daisy Bennett against the state for damages alleged to have been sustained by her while operating a mangle in the laundry of the New York State Training School for Girls, and to render judgment therefor. The second bill is an act to amend the New York city municipal court code, in relation to a change of boundaries of the seventh district in the borough of Manhattan, and providing for an additional justice in said borough, and for additional justices in said districts. Another act amends the municipal court code in relation to notice of trial. The fourth bill introduced by Mr. Billups is for the purpose of amending the personal property law in relation to retaking the pos- sans of this country it lay. In the passage where the President emphasized the importance of obedience to the law. As the Negro is the greatest sufferer from the disregard for law and order in certain parts of this country, any utterance, tending to imply greater respect for the law is bound to appeal to our group. On this subject we quote Mr. Coolidge: "In a republic the first rule for the guidance of the citizens is obedience to law. Under despotism, the law may be imposed upon the subject. He has no voice in its making, no influence on its conduct. Under free government, the citizen makes his own laws, chooses his own ministrators, which do represent him. Those who want their rights respected under the Constitution and the law ought to set the example themselves of observing the Constitution and the law. While there may be those of high intelligence who violate the law at times, the barrican and the defective always violate it. In this respect we are not exhibiting a superior, intelligence, are not promoting freedom and independence, are not following the path of civilization, but are displaying the traits of ignorance, of servitude, of savagery, and, treading the way, that leads back to the jungle. session of property sold on conditional sale. By this amendment the buyer is given an opportunity to redeem the property by paying into court ten per cent of the judgment and the balance in equal weekly installments; The last bill introduced by this industrious legislator is to amend the benevolent orders law, in relation to chapters of the Eastern Star, according to the title. The amendment seems to cover wider ground than that specified, as it provides for twenty-two new subdivisions, relating to the Masons, Royal Arch Masons, Royal and Selected Masons, Knight Templars, Supreme Council of the Ancient and Scottish Rite, Nobles of the Myatic Shirine, Odd Fellows, Household of Ruth, Knights of Pythias, Court of Calanthe, Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of ELKs of the World, Independent Order of Sons and Daughters of Samaria, Order of Love and Charity, Grand Unified Order of Daughters and Sons of St. Luke, Independent Order of St. Luke, Order of the Knights and Daughters of Honor, Independent Order of Mechanics, Grand United Order of Fishermen of Galilee, etc. While no immediate practical result may follow these plain sentiments on the subject of law breaking, as viewed from a Presidential standpoint, it is always well to have such high standards set forth by those in authority. In the course of time the American people may come to see that there is some good to be extracted from such standards and may finally adopt them as a practical guide to performance. It is well for the President to set his standards so high. Some of these benevolent orders are to be recognized as composed entirely of colored members, lodges of which are already in existence in this State. If the object of this amendment is merely to give them the legal recognition accorded to other benevolent orders, the proposed legislation may serve a useful purpose. It would be well for the members of these orders to look into the matter and ascertain the effect that this amendment may have upon their present status. In the meantime the President can do much in a practical way to show how equality before the law is as essential to republican ideals as obedience to the law. He can insist on the maintenance of law and order in all parts of the country, wherever-violations infringe upon the guaranties, of the constitution. He can ensure the realization of those assurances made to the effect that he would prove the best President who ever took office, so far as the right of all classes of our citizenship are concerned. He can insist that adequate representation in the public service is given to deserving candidates, without regard to color or creed. In other words he can translate his advocacy of law and order into a living policy that will speak louder than words. Mr. Billups has made a record as a proposer of legislation. The next step is for him to demonstrate the necessity for the laws that he has introduced and secure a favorable report from the committees to which they have been sent, as preliminary to their passage. The Age does not believe in needless legislation, as there are too many useless laws on the statute books. But if the proposed amendments offered by Mr. Billups are needed for the redress of wrongs or in the interest of improving present conditions, the reasons for their adoption may be justified. PADLOCKS FOR BOQZE JOINTS Emory R. Buckner who succeeded Col. William Hayward as United States Attorney for this district, has resorted to the padlock injunction as a means of enforcing prohibition. On one day last week fourteen applications were filed to close a number of exclusive clubs, restaurants and cafes, on a charge of violating the law by selling liquor. On proof of this offense the court may order the place closed and a padlock attached to prevent further sales. The loss falls upon the liquor seller and the owner of the premises. BILL TO HELP TENANTS If your landlord will not make new repairs, or fails to take steps to reminiscence that exists on the premises should be interested in the passage of Grenthal bill, now pending in the New legislature. This bill which was introduced by Assemblyman Abram Grenthal early part of the session, provides that proper proof that a delinquent landlord is ordered to remove a nuisance, make necessary and proper repairs, must can be dispossessed for nonpayment, if the amount is deposited with the of the court. The object of this act is to provide for those tenants who reside in built where a certain portion is permitted used for purposes which constitute a sance," such as hooch joints, gambling and other unlawful pursuits. It will compel unwilling landlords to make necessary repairs as will keep their buil in a sanitary and healthful condition prevent the willful neglect of repairs, der to force out tenants who cannot be required to pay higher rents. As a means of protection for those tenants who suffer from the neglect of frequent landlords and agents, the Gr bill would prove an effective weapon unless the people interested in its purpose their desires known to the law it may fall of passage. The legislation is drawing to a close and anything is done to favor the passage of the bill be done promptly. If you favor its p you should write to the State Senate Assemblyman from your district, them to help the measure to become If your landlord will not make necessary repairs, or fails to take steps to remove a nuisance that exists on the premises, you should be interested in the passage of the Grenthal bill, now pending in the New York legislature. This bill which was introduced by Assemblyman Abram Grenthal in the early part of the session, provides that upon proper proof that a delinquent landlord has been ordered to remove a nuisance, or to make necessary and proper repairs, no tenant can be dispossessed for nonpayment of ent, if the amount is deposited with the clerk of the court. Under this summary proceeding every saloon on Seventh avenue, in the Harlem district, could be effectually closed, as liquor is openly sold in all of these places, as well as in most of the delicatessens and stationery stores. Evidence of these violations is easy to get, the first comer being served without demur, so long as he has the cash. The object of this act is to provide relief for those tenants who reside in buildings, where a certain portion is permitted to be used for purposes which constitute a "nuisance," such as hooch joints, gambling rooms and other unlawful pursuits. It will also compel unwilling landlords to make such necessary repairs as will keep their buildings in a sanitary and healthful condition and prevent the willful neglect of repairs in order to force out tenants who cannot be required to pay higher rents. Let Mr. Buckner distribute a few paddocks up in Harlem after he has covered the most popular Broadway resorts. It may put a crimp in the activities of the hooch hounds for a white, at least. THE PRESIDENT ON LAW According to the historians of the day, Calvin Coolidge became President of the United States on August 23, 1923, the thirtieth in line of succession, through the death of President Harding. On March 4, 1925, Mr. Colidge was inaugurated as President in his own right, through the overwhelming vote of the people of this country, for a term of four years more. He is the second individual in the history of the republic to enter into that office under such conditions, the first being Theodore Rosevelt. As a means of protection for those tenants who suffer from the neglect of delinquent landlords and agents, the Grenthall bill would prove an effective weapon. But unless the people interested in its passage make their desires known to the lawmakers, it may fall of passage. The legislative session is drawing to a close and anything that is done to favor the passage of the bill must be done promptly. If you favor its passage you should write to the State Senator and Assemblyman from your district, asking them to help the measure to become a law. There is a peculiar romance about the career of Mr. Coolidge, in his steady rise from comparative obscurity to the most powerful office in the nation. It is a career that has appealed to the imagination of the American people in the highest degree. His triumphant victory at the polls last fall was based on the exaltation of the primitive virtues of thrift and economy. It was a decided contrast to the prevailing American vices of openhanded spending and careless extravagance. It brought about a needed reaction in the national mind. DANGEROUS IMITATION A circular letter has been received office, addressed to "Dear Protestant a cans" and bearing the signature of Norcross, national secretary of the Ab Lincoln Auxiliary, Independent KI America, with its national office at M A circular letter has been received at this office, addressed to "Dear Protestant Americans" and bearing the signature of Orlon Norcross, national secretary of the Abraham Lincoln Auxiliary, Independent Klan of America, with its national office at Muncie, Indiana. Enclosed were a code of rules and regulations and a statement setting forth the reasons for this organization. The letter further stated that any publicity given the auxiliary, or cooperation towards the the forming of a local klan would be appreciated. In his inaugural address President Coolidge continued to stress the necessity for economy in national expenditures, saying "I favor the policy of economy not because I wish to save money, but because I wish to save the people." He also declared that "the collection of any taxes which are not absolutely required, which do not beyond reasonable doubt contribute to the public welfare, is only a species of larceny." There is a whole lesson in this pithy sentence that should be taken to heart by those State and municipal governments, which impose increasing burdens of taxation upon the suffering taxpayers, which in effect means all those who pay rent. So far as we can glean from the literature sent us the auxiliary is a feeble imitation of the Ku Klux Klan, with religious intolerance as its basis for existence. It is represented as a colored annex to the Independent Klan of America, many of whose members once belonged to the older Knights of the Ku Klux Klan. It is stated that the fight made on the colored race was disliked by many of the old klansmen, in that it did not give a solution of the racial problem, and merely caused many colored people to desert the Protestant denominations for the Catholic church. If there was any part of the address which had a special significance for the Negro city Comments By The Age Editors On Sayings of Other Editors The Independent (Kian of America) so it is stated, was formed last, March at Muncie, with hundreds of former klansmen present. They eliminated "White Supremacy" from their principles according to this circular and in the place put "Race Purity." An adopted auxiliary was finally decided upon to aid in what is termed "this great Protestant movement." While it is asserted that there is absolutely nothing commercial about this movement, there is an initiation fee of five dollars exacted from every candidate for membership. The regalia, which comprises a red coat with a blue girdle, a white cape and a blue headpiece like an extinguisher with eyeholes, will probably cost extra. Nevertheless, it makes quite a picturesque costume, judging from the illustration. The object of this organization, according to the preamble, is to unite all Protestant denominations regardless of race or.color in one universal movement for the perpetuation of Protestant- The Louisville Leader, contends that the biggest mistake made by some of our papers is their failure to print the news. Resolving to turn over a new leaf in this respect, it said: That a newspaper cannot afford to print the news and the truth about anybody. high or low, rich or poor, is a blatant idea. Wrong is wrong, and news is news, it makes, no difference who it is about. There may be a difference in people, their standing, their society, their associates, but one person is no better than another. If one person is better than another character. The person who thinks the noblest and lives the best is the better person, and that person can be either a ditch digger or a bank president. No newspaper pleases every reader fifty-two weeks in the year. It is absolutely impossible. As one writer puts it, newspapers, good ones, deal in truth, and truth will always be unpleasant for a great-number of people. Reaction rarely takes th: form of a compliment of the editor. This is well said, and true, and well in the face of experience. The Leader in the future will draw no lines: it doesn't help doesn't pay. The Leader will print the news, will hue to the line, letting the chips fall where the may: "Hue to the line" may be the most appropriate way to put it, as this new departure, if adhered to, is bound to raise a hue and cry. The policy of one pretentious daily was defined as furnishing "all the news that's fit to print" but most papers add a little more. We shall watch the course of the Louisville contemporary with much interest. The following news note was found in a late issue of the American Baptist, published at Louisville, Ky: The Bishops Council of the A. M. P. Connection have decided that personal checks will not be received for the General Church work at the Conferences hereafter. This means that the pastors are not careful about such matters and hereafter must bring certified or cashier's check for that purpose. We know that ministers are not generally regardee as good business men, although there are many examples to the contrary. Still, we did not think that their personal checks would prove unacceptable for church purposes. Perhaps the Baptist editor has misconstrued the new rule. If it has been adopted as stated. "The Loving Cup—an expression of evinic pride," was the theme of an editorial in the Birmingham Reporter, in the course of which it said. The tendency throughout the nation is to show some appreciation of human kindness and service. It is true with all races in all sections. The Loving Cup idea is being used generally. It is a good way to encourage dating and faithful service. It inspires the hearts of men and women to noble action. The movement should be encouraged and the people of our race should not lose the opportunity to follow in the wake of this noble spirit. The Negro people of Birmingham are rapidly expressing themselves along with the efforts have been carried out in the last twenty-four months. The first "Loving Cup was tendered Mrs Carrie A Tuggle, of the Tuggle Institute, and the second was given Prof A H Parker at the Industrial High School last Sunday. This program is being carried on by the Boosters' Club of Birmingham and they are encouraged by other institutions of a civic and commercial nature. So long as the gift is regarded as purely emblematic and decorative, the presentation of loving cups may work no harm. It is not to be overlooked, however, that in pre-Volstead days, the loving cup was at times used to hold beverages of greater than one half of one ceft'alcoholic strength. Antisaloon agitators may yet clamor for legislation against the survival of the loving cup. The Cincinnati Union directed attention to the political opportunity opened for racial representation on the city council. It said The new council will consist of nine members. They will all be elected from The Age Readers' Forum The Age Readers' Forum lame. Other purposement mentioned are to promote love for our country, to practice chinchiness, toward each other, to safeguard the sanctity and honor of women and to perpetuate racial purity. Provision is made for the trial of offenses and the imposing of penalties by the order, one of the principal offenses being the violation of the oath of the order. This organization impresses us as a cheap imitation of the original klan, designed to stir up religious strife, alienate the good feeling now prevailing between Catholics and Protestants in many communities, and, last but not least, to gather in a few dirty dollars for the men who are behind the scheme. It is a dangerous imitation of an evil original, which decent and self-respecting citizens will do well to shun. Unfortunately, its chief appeal will be to the ignorant and unwary, who may be duped into joining it, and to the unscrupulous schemers who may profit in using it as an aid to political or criminal designs. the city-at-large, not from different wards as in the past. Candidates are already circulating petitions, since it is necessary for six or seven hundred citizens to sign their names endorsing a candidate, in order that he or she may be legally entitled to run for council. A citizen can only sign one petition. Be sure and wait to find out the names of candidates, so that you may sign for a friend, rather than for some wolf in sheep's clothing. "A hint to the whale is sufficient." We have been asked in regard to the chances a colored man would have to be elected. We will say, that our colored citizens can elect a man to council if they will all vote for him. Should our people pick out the man they want he will have a good chance. Unfortunately, some of our colored citizens usually engaged in plucking out themselves, they are giving no thought for the desires of others. Character and capacity for public service should be the points to be considered in seeking a candidate for this office. Let the voters get together and unite on the man who has these qualifications. "Holy Ghost Preaching" Often Styled As "Gravy" "Holy Ghost Preaching" Often Styled As "Gravy" By RUTH R. DENNIS BY RUTH K. DENNIS Rev. Jones' article in the Christian Recorder on the above subject, was indeed inspiring and in many respects true. When we do need as a race is "Holy Ghost Preaching," but just what do we mean by "Holy Ghost Preaching" I gather from Rev. Jones' article that it consists mainly of, as he refers, (1) to the eloquence which moves multitudes to uposition aplaeuse; (2) to Bishop Truner's utterance concerning the force and noise of nature. Then says Rev. Jones, "Let the preacher go and do likewise." Truly the article states that conditions among our people, especially the young, are deplorable. The mass is changing, we are becoming another people. The amazing question to be decided is whether the inheritance of our fathers shall be preserved or erased whether our Sabbath shall be a delight or an abomination, whether the pool rooms and dance halls shall be crowded with wild and careless youth, or the sanctuary of God with humble worshipers; whether riot and profanity shall fill our streets and poverty, our homes and our paths, with violence over the land, and industry and temperance and rightfulness shall be the stability of our times. Our youth seem as though they would rather do anything than work actively in the church. The majority of elders who do attend are everything but what they should be—even the babes in the cradle shock us, and one almost thinks that the devil has been let loose upon the earth. What we need to improve this condition somewhat is the Holy Ghost preachers Paul says, "How shall they hear without a preacher?" The ministry of today is regarded as deprived and immoral to the extent that readers are not respected and in many instances are to enter into the homes of parishioners. I am speaking generally; sensible, thoughtful readers know that if it were not for the few conscientious religious leaders working earnestly this would be a veritable hell on earth. There are some ministers who are led by the Holy Ghost but they are few. There are others who enter the ministry because it affords them an easy livelihood and oftimes a rich and popular one. The name of this type is lection Christ still reprints them as He did the Pharisees, saying "Worth hath written this, your superiors, as it is written to this people, me with their lips but their hearts are far from me." As lights of the world to be set upon a hill that they may give light to all, those who dare call themselves ambassadors of Christ are as weak morally as a jellyfish and excuse themselves with the plea that they are only human and therefore not responsible. One young minister of Harlem dared to in the center commandment. Thou shalt not commit. He declared that as his life was exemplary, he was not afraid to test shroud and spare not. His congregation was astounded. The Portland, Oregon, Advocate expressed satisfaction with a verdict, ordered by a jury composed of nine women and seven men in a recent court case the second time. The facts were stated as follows: As a result of not guilty was returned Wednesday, night at 10:10 by a jury at Carson's Judge Tucker's Court, in the case of Mrs. Zuzie Lowe, on a charge of involuntary manslaughter. The charges against Mrs. Lowe grew out of any automobile accident, which took place on the 9th of October, 1924, at East 13th and Multnomah Street in which Mrs. Lowe and her car and John Purdin (white) and his car in which wielded sledge. Five other passengers, collided. Mrs. Morud, one of three passengers in the front seat of Purdin's car, which later died. Several of them occupy the Purdin's car claim to be jewelry injured. There were other persons in Mrs. Lowe's car herself at the time of the accident. This trial marched the second in this car, the jury having disagreed in the first trial, was contented at the time that Mrs. Lowe, was driving her car she was under the indictment of intoxicating liquor and as a result drove her car negligently, this causing the accident the last trial issued three days, and four days the first time. This verdict based on the evidence shows that an Oregon jury may be trusted to render a verdict free from prejudice on account of race or color. The Savannah Tribune commended the Community chief idea on the ground that a more practical plan of centralized charity was never conceived in said: A campaign is now being waged to raise the required sum of the budget for the coming year. This effort should appeal to all of us. Our people who already a position to do so, should contribute. It is true that only one of our group organizations is represented, but it is a beginning and should we act well our part, it will be the means of an increased number and amount next time. This movement too, has much to-do in the making of a Greater Samaritan by the success it means. Samaritan is the success and fully to reach any intended goal. Our people should feel that they are really a part of the community and should be interested and cooperate in every movement for its good. The Community Chest appeals to us and our requests should be liberal. This plan of raising money for charitable purposes has been found to work well in many communities. It has the advantages of 'reducing the cost of collection and of giving to the contributors an assurance that the money will bed distributed among deserving charities. To ensure an equitable distribution of funds the various institutions of all classes should be fairly represented. About a year ago I visited a ministera' meeting and appealed to them to do something tangible in better conditions. One minister became indignant and stated that the good moral people of the church could not afford to take care of a preacher in the 20th century style, and any minister who did not cater to the worldly crowd was a fool. Continuing he said, "Negroes make me sick; they get tired of you quickly enough, but when they get tired of me I should worry, I've got mine." There were about fifty ministers present and none of them said anything. This is the attitude taken by so many wolves in sheep's clothing. This preacher further stated that neither I nor anyone else need criticize the preachers because they are the best God has. If this is true do you blame the folks for preferring to associate with the worst and remain of the church? I don't; I think they are better off. There is need for a great revival among the ministers that they heed Christ's injunction, "When they art converted strengthenly the brethren when Holy Ghost preachers predominate when Holy Ghost preaching follows as matter of course. Reunion will be similar in the days of the Baptist John Wesley Whittle Moody and others. No need to discuss what it is and how it is made manifest. It will come as the Holy Ghost in the upper room. None will understand but they will all declare with Peter, "Thou hast made known to the ways of life. Thou shalt make me full of joy with Thy countenance." Screaming and yelling, jumping and down like maniacs, and down sorts of ridiculous things, which the race is ignorant and superstitious, are evidences of the Holy Ghost is not only a grace to the man and twentythree progresses also a gross insult to the religion Jesus Christ. There may be some are so emotional that they must press themselves in some way. I do not dispute, but this whoever practice of shouting, peculiar to people, should be stopped. Shouting is a told time and that the most learned person can actually the professional people, never avoid the church. Of course should not, but it is not altogether fault, their intelligence is insulted all the anties that are perpetuated the name of religion. It is more culious than the Indian or African dance and the strange thing about shouting is that those indulge most in blackguards to be found anywhere In old days our forefathers could not read and did not understand how to serve God as we do today, so they were excused; but they were model citizens. Today, we as a race must baze our own soul on intelligence, and devoutly. "Love the Lord thy God with all thy heart and mind and strength." That means in a Him with the heart sincerely; with the soul earnestly; with the mind intellectually; with the strength ardently. All that should great number of people there should be familiar with a lignon, remember that God said to David, "Be still and know that I am God." The Broadway Tabernade Talking, a mentor's publication by the largest Congressional Church in New York City, spoke a fine word for the Negro Congressional Churches of the North New York City, Brooklyn, Detroit, Cleveland, and Buffalo, it said. And more than justified the plan of centreg efforts on larger projects. Las Sunday Dr. Garnet addressed an evidence that was most representative of our group in New York.

And The Little Horn* , *from Daniel eight chapter.* The speaker began his discourse, by saying, "The seventh and eighth chapters of Daniel are intended to expose the 'mystery of iniquity', and to put the Christian church on its guard against it." The speaker said, "Said the speaker further—'If God, humbling himself to take the place of man in the world, is the 'mystery of Goddiness',' then, reasoning correctly, any mortal man in the world, exalting himself to take the place of God, is most surely the 'mystery of iniquity' and this is met in the philosophy of Jesus." The supreme effort of Satan, to establish his rule in the earth was put forth in the days of the iron monarchy of Rome. With the most extensive sway, the most abitrary authority, with a thorough didolatrous system, controlling every phase of human life, agonize Rome and the world, govern by the God of this world—Satan. "Impirate Rome went down—fell; the plan of Satan came to thought. But, the devil did not cause his efforts to bring the world under his rule. Having failed to achieve his goal, the political empire maintained by force of arms, he set about to establish a seemingly spiritual rule, where, in the person of a man, he would be accepted as God, or the vicar of Christ, bidding for the salvation of God and Christ; he evolved the papacy, the mystery of iniquity, the man of sin, papal Rome." Next Sunday night the minister will preside over this same symbol of the spirit of Revelation thirteen. Fainted chants and stereopticon pictures will illustrate the talk Salem M. E. Church Dr. A. R. Cooper preached the first sermon of the day last Sunday administering to the spiritual hunger of the vast number that thronged the church at an early hour. Place of the sermon is a picture of his text coined in the text found at Hebrews, 12, 1. In the course of his sermon Dr. Cooper compared the span of life to a great race course and urged his hearers to concentrate on the race in order that running their best they may prove successful contestants. The W. David Brown Lodge of Oddfellows assembled in the evening through the kindness of Providence, Dr. Cullen who has been confined by illness was able to summon enough strength to address this fraternity. The young lodge was an encouragement along a career of christian-usefulness. A program of unimital interest was presented at the Lycée by John P. Johnson by special request addressed the Lycée on the subject of the "Social Status of the Negro Man." In a masterful manner she discussed the close relation between the moral and social bearing and the need to respect these respects with men of other race groups. It was a glowing tribute to the men of her race. Another speaker, John Ross, State Auditor, dealt with some of the problems met by colored youths in starting up business near the mass work takes into the centers of business activity and from his vast experiences he was able to point out many pitfalls and to stress some of the points necessary for success for Allen also sprinted forth the high level of Lycée work as a back for self-development. The musical part of the program was a big factor contributing to the general success. Solos were sung by Miss May Stevens by Miss Misaet Stevens, Indiana Stone by Earle. At the conclusion George W. Alfen made a very complementary review of the program. The Sunday school is making splendid progress under the direction of its superintendent Mrs Portia Wiley Nikens. The attendance is larger the interest shown by both the teachers and scholars enable much to be accomplished. We week marked the passing of a member of the official family, William, Van.

First Emmanuel Church At the 11 o'clock service Sunday Pastor Bolden preached from the following doctrine: "And they were astonished at his doctrine, for his word was with power" St. Luke 1:16. He was demonized, the word of God" Pastor Bolden said: "That Jesus' proclamation in the temple of His home, Nazareth, "armed intense antagonism against Hip: The supernatural appears to be last, and positions and positions too much for a poor, though worthy and plious young man, whose Where To Go To Church Where To Go To Church The two men from the business of the town of Nearchip in the night will win a 22-year-old throwing-film-over-a-principle and the other two men for the first year. Lord the Kinsley's training through the million of the two men and the case down the Cudden City of Gallee and the two men on the south-east of the two-year-old teachers of Jesus were given the training of his agility to the exercise of the students. The most, I hope, was the time that he did not have to be compared to them to be one of those and, both in and on, you are living a vigorous life; and the old men have had to do this and express their love to those voices and the greatness of the men. It is not to be so long as to indicate that it is due to the loss of the time to the old men, and he section, where this spirit exists and no line of the two men will be so long as to have other two men in their own place.

" They are astounded as your doctoring for your Here in Capernaum and the district of Galilee our Lord the Emmanuel in the beginning of His litterary ministry demonstrated that the word, as God, had commanded him. For he leased Peter's wife, mother who was sick of a fever, and commanded the unclean devil to come out of his arm and it was Lone. This personified all one, from the readings of spiritual feasts the triumphal proclamations as to the duty of Jesus, the Father's Voice at the baptism, John the Baptist's proclamation, which was the voice of humanity in the wilderness and the voice of the angel who are filled with the Holy Spirit go forth and teach the doctrine, of everlasting life in servitude demonstrating the power of God.

The sermon was to live up to the ideals of the order but said he, the days of mystery has graps; pips and signs are not enough. The order of the day is simplicity. Circum- cumstances; conditions the race and times demands more. It was a whole- hearted sermon itself, full of simplicity, and a celebration of an organization whose tradition is couched in years and mystery.

The sympathy of the church is extended to the family of the deceased. Rev. Brown was in Washington, D. C., during the last week attending the Bishop's meeting which adjourned at Charlotte, N.

He enjoyed the respect and confidence of a large and growing parish and a host of other friends; his entertainment on the occasion of his recent visit bespeaks that March 20, the Twelve Tribes of Israel pitch their tents at the church for one night only. Newman Mem, M. E. Church The beautiful spring weather brought a large congregation to Newman Memorial M. E. Church on Sunday, March 8. When Rev. T. W. Cooper arose to announce the open hymn, everyone present seemed to be imbued with a spirit of worship. The hymn selected was "Come Holy Spirit, Heavenly Dove, with all thy quickening power; kingle a flame of sated love in these cold hearts of onelove." Never before had that hymn been sung with the fervor, that the congregation oined with the chorin singing, and it seemed that all present were imploring the incoming of the Holy Spirit to revive each and everyone to a more consecrated service. Dr Cooper preached a stirring sermon from the text John 7:7, "The world cannot hate you; but me it hath because I testify of it, that the works here are the evil Jesus." In the course of his sermon, the preacher recalled to the attention of the congregation, the persecution we must suffer in standing for righteousness. For the world was against any who dared to do right. It was the king of the Lord was crucified, that He escaped to rid the world of its evil influence, and when men and women in the service of the Lord were caused to withstand opposition they were to be encouraged with the words of Jesus, they cannot hate you but Me they hate testify of the evil they have done." The Sunday school had a record attendance and after a short review of the lesson for the day Mrs Carrie Harrison, the pianist for the school, continued the preparist for the Easter, at 8 p.m. Cooper preached from the church that refused instruction despised his own soul." His subject was "The importance of soul instruction." The sermon was a fatherly admonition to all present to be willing of accept instruction. He deplored the need for the sermon to their usefulness by their determined effort to resist instruction. He pleaded with them to read God's word and to hear the Gospel more implicitly that the spirit might impart to their souls the instruction they needed exceptionally good.

In the evening a fine audience heard Dr. Thornton's plan for "large liberty" him and let him go. He held creation, history and human progress well expressed of the beauty that was impressed in the divinity, and that Jesus we were made in the image that we are made in God. He made a strong plan for emancipation from old jubilee that bound men down.

He was very good under the leadership of Prof Johnson. All felt greatly edified in hearing "Bedeptemum" so effectively sung by Robt, Sawyer. The quiet devotional aspect of the lenten season seems to have a marked effect on St. Philip's Sunday school. He instructed his school what to read in preparation for the quarterly examination. In the evening James Boyd exchanged with Rev. James Williams, who preached to an unusually large congregation, that the service is increasing in attendance each week. The Bible pictures, accompanied by a talk are making a splendid impression on the children. Many of them write essays on the main picture of the service. The special preacher next Friday at 8 p.m. will be the Rev. G. M. Plaskett of Orange, N. J., and night night the Rev. H. F. Covell will preach. Rector Boyd is keeping his host's mission week, Preaching Mission Week, which will begin at St. Phillip's on March 29 by the Rev. Scott Wood, D. D. of Pittsburgh, Pa. There will be a healing service every morning at 1:30, to which a host are invited, especially evening at 8 p.m., there will be a preaching service.

Claflin Girls Finish The Season Undefeated And Claim Championship Orangeburg, S. C—Basketball, a recent innovation in this section, has grown in popularity. by leaps and bounds. Much of this interest can be attributed to the fasty playing of the Clafin girls' basketball team. A summary of their season's showings follows. In the six games played and won, the high point scorer was Vertelle Motte, who played it five full games, scoring 63 points. Elizabeth Burgess played in three full games and part of two more, making 27 points. Norworth Gordon follows, playing two full parts of two more for a total of 24 points. Points scored in six games: Clafin, 117; opponents, 52. Opponents were able to make only 12 field goals for the entire six games, while the Clafin team piled up 51 goals for all games. Clafin played all one team work was for superior in their opponents and she rightfully deserves the "Championship of the South."

PULLMAN PORTER NEWS W. JAMES M. MOQAN The Forum Committee of the Pullman Pierces, Athletic and Social Club, has beautifully organised in making preparations for its initial meeting, which will be held on Sunday afternoon, March 22 in the Club, person at 10S, West 136th 街. A splendid program has been planned for the occasion, it will be com- menced with music, both vocal and instrur- mational, and addresses by prominent local officials and club members, it will be beginning with a speech by the vp at 5:30 p.m. in Alexander Ling, in the street of College Station Branch station, will be the speaker on this occasion. This is the first of a series of monthly meetings which the club, contemplates holding. Their object is to promote the intellectual value of the club's activities and to provide an hour of two or three entertainment for the members and other members. Sunday afternoons have been chosen as the most convenient time to hold these meetings, we are certain that the majority of the members will appreciate having an annualment of this character provided for them. It has long been the desire of the officers of the club to broaden the scope of its activities so that it will come to play a more important part in the community than it does at present, this attracting the attention and respect not only for the members, but also its friends. These meetings are part of their operations towards the Forum Committee plans, to help men and women who are outstanding figures in the community, not only business professionals men and women, but those who are doing big things in other lines of endeavor, to address these meetings. This seems to be a capital as well as a noxel idea. Most of our colored organizations to address them, probably due to the fact that they are our best speakers and best examples of success, although we have often heard addresses from men who were neither good speakers nor successful in the professions they have attained. This has of course no immediate bearing on the subject and is only injected to emphasize the department which the Forum Committee plans to make from the general rule. It will apply the double test when choosing its speakers. The following persons have been invited to make addresses; Rev. J. W. Brown, pastor of Mother Zion Church; Fred R. Moore, editor of the Age; Dr. Conrad Vincent, Dr. Hudson J. Oliver, Chas. H. Varm, and John Bapstle, Pulpman, Porter lecturer and philosopher, who practiced so much newspaper comment recently that the exception of Mr. Ford, all of these gentlemen are honorary members of the club. The entire public is cordially invited to attend. By TOM J. NICHOLAS, Jr. Everybody, at some time or other is fired by ambition: a desire to reach some "lofty height; an eagerness to give the wise birds an eyeful, etc. When I was in my early teens, I was fired out several careers as being most. Numbered among my list were banker, actor, general, tired business man, defender, and some twenty odd others. However, I discarded them one by one as being too tame, and finally settled on that exalted being—the actor! Straightway, I developed a mania for the theatre. I bought books on "How to Act," and struck masterful poses before my mirror. I firmly resolved that if I didn't become the world's greatest actor, the camel would be his hump. In a word, I intended to play the character Chaplin, Al Jolson and Luke McLuke look like the "Last of the Mohicans." Of such magnificent force was my ambition. Many times I had pictured myself riding majestically down Broadway; the gate of a fawning public case upon the while whispers of "There goes Jones, the actor," and "Oh, gee, ain't he grunt," smote my ears. And I would nonchastantly say to my chauffeur: "To the Ritz, James, and make it snappy!" "Them was the happy days," alright, and I basked in the glory of my exhibition. I would revolutionize the art of the theatre and have the world at my feet—or on my neck. As time wore on, however, I felt the fire of desire wane, and soon it died out completely, until now I don't give a hang whether the world sees me as a super actor or not. Yet when I think of it, I haven't been a mass as an actor. As a matter of fact, I have portrayed some very difficult roles. That time when Cousin Arthur and family made themselves guests of mine for a whole month, I played the part of a happy host, though I would gladly have burned them at the stake. That day the bill collector called and smilingly told him how worried I was about to arrive, while inwardly I hoped that he might be relegated to that place which the elder warns us of. I remember vividly the day I paced the corridor wondering what the hardest would be, and the nurse hissed the word "Triplets!" into my ear. Ah! it was then that I played my master role. As my friends looked sympathetically upon me, I gave a highly seasoned and correct imitation of the word "Triplets" seriously proud papa; yet all the white I played my fogy brain-box as to why the gods had given me such a raw deal. (My salary was only $20 per week) These and many other incidents prove that I have made an enviable record as an actor, about unconceivably. Who knows (this means you, too, brother.) what role we may play tomorrow? Of course lots of good people get away to waste under the mean head of hypocrisy, but it is good acting, nonetheless. Anyway, I get a deal of satisfaction from knowing that I have been—and am—an actor Moral: All ye who have ambition to become actors, plug away, and someday, you may be a good hypocrite The habit of reading the Age Furnished Room column' will benefit you greatly. (continued from last week) Raise Of Recipients Telephone receivers are raised from their resistance, the value of which is expressed on ohms. In radio work, the receivers used should have a resistance of from one to three thousand ohms. In ordinary telephone lines within the district of four receiveers one, hundred ohms, although higher resistances are often used for special work. Because of the lack of space and of the high resistance which must be obtained, the resistance coil is wound with a very fine wire. Coarse wire can not be used because the coil would have to be too large in order to accommodate enough wire to give the desired resistance. The sound produced by the ordinary watch-case receiver is not very loud. It is, however, loud enough for ordinary use, in fact the sound produced is just loud enough to be comfortable for the ears. Where volume is desired, a loud speaker is used. This is not so very different from the ordinary type of receiver except that it requires more power and stronger signals to operate it. Adjacent operatus is needed to offer to provide the sound. The form of audio-frequency amplifiers: Semp loud speakers need a current to operate them, but the general tendency is to do away with the loud speakers which require much power. Fibre horns are becoming more prevalent with the movement to do away with horns which cause a matalic sound to be produced. Wood horns are of popular favor as are the horns of other composition, but practical for metal horns are now used. The horn has a lot to do with the sound produced. The shape should be such that the sound produced will be clear and without distortion. العربية If it had not been for tuberculosis and the discoveries of that great patient, Dr. Trudeau, who at an early age went to the Adironaxes "to die," and lived to see over eighty years pass him by, we might never have had the national campaign for open air in the treatment of the sick and the popular interest which took to well people the doctrine of air as a health protection. Why all this talk about outdoor air? Simply because it is more healthful than indoor air, which is virilated and still By keeping tuberculosis patients outdoor that is in bed, or in those most comfortable chairs, for the sleeping and waking hours, and allowing them in their rooms, and the two or three hours necessary for toilet usages, we have found that we need the length of time it takes for recovery. When one of these patients is well enough to be allowed exercise, one of the nrt forms of it is automobile riding. We found too that moving air is more healthful than still air. How many of you have not experienced the effects of a trip to the shore or up the Hudson for an outdoor holiday? Appetite is better. Digestion is a smoothly running affair. Breathing is automatically deeper and the mind is clearer when it is awake and sleep is sounder and more beneficial. Nerves are soothed. A man calls Lincoln once said that "if the end fringes me out all right, what is said against it doesn't amount to anything. If the end fringes me out wrong, ten angels sweating it was right would make no difference." All the propaganda in the world could not have convinced scientists that outdoor treatment benefited sick people if the fact had not been demonstrated by actual results. All the old wives, tales in the world cannot prevent you from knowing that outdoor air is good for you if you once you try it Hired Two Colored Men To Hold Up Truck Of Liquor He Bought From Bootlegger Atlantic City, N. J.—Two colored men and two white men are being held inside a angle which involves the violation of the law highway robbery and conspiracy. Benjamin Stone ordered a whole truck load of liquor from Theodore, Rosenberg which was to be delivered to Stone's private garage which was done. While the money was being paid, two colored men, Walter Hill and Ernest Jones, came on the scene and "stuck up" the men, took the money, and drove away with the truck load of "good liquor." All four men were arrested; and Stone, who ordered the liquor and paid for it, claims that he ordered the liquor to trap Rosenberg, the bootlegger, and hired the two colored men to "hold up" the truck.

MONT AND DAY SERVICE Plumbing in all in its specialty When endeavoring to get DX, the radio fan should observe the following points: The aerial should not be erected on high voltage electric wire or in the high voltage of any metallic bodies. All covers should be soldered, and the aerial should be well insulated. The radio set should be shielded in order to do away with body capacity. Without the shielding there, will be added capacity due to the contact of the hand with the dials. This tends to make the tuning broader. For best results the batteries should be kept fully charged. This is especially true for "B" batteries. The set is at its highest efficiency when the batteries are in a well charged state. **Dots And Dashes** It is reported that starting about the middle of this month WNYC will start to broadcast afternoon programs.

Rockefeller Jr.'s gift of $1,000,000 to the Hampton-Tuskegee University is the more significant since it is prompted by an intimate acquaintance of many years with the work of these students, beginning with his visit to Hampton, and a boy in company with his father. The Institute was at that time conducted by its founder, General Samuel Chagman Armstrong, who was solving by his sound argument, the Negro problem of "education for blacks." Hampton was the first great vocational school established in the United States. It is the mother of Turkegee. Both have been factors of unbounded influence not only in direct teaching but also in the heightening of the economic and moral standards of the Negro. They have contributed, moreover, to a better interracial understanding. They have brought about respect for negro manhood and well-being-based on the sterling character and service of the graduates of the two institutes. Isla manifestly for the interest of the whole country that these excellent schools shall continue their vigorous expansion. Their friends have an opportunity to assure their future by assisting to round out the desired-fund of $3,000,000 for the joint endowment and building program which the Rockefeller gift has put within measurable accomplishment. When the five million have been raised there will be added Mr. Kimman's contigent gift of $2,000,000. When the goal in sight there is every prospect of the generous and timely co-operation of many contributors. Mrs. Carrie Gibson Dead Mrs. Carrie Gibson of Charlotte N.

LOANS MADE ON SECOND MORTOAGES SOUTH QATE, Owner 112 WEST 130TH STREET Phone number: Dr. B. W. Barnett, Mirel Alma Morrow and Mabel Bulok of Gregnaboro are alumn, but it was not convenient for them to be present. Professor Chas. H. Moore, who attended Howard University, girded the administration of its first President, Gen. O. Ol Howard, for whom the University was named, graduated from the Preparatory Department in 1873. But awards he had attended in the class of 1878, of which W. Stearns, the wealthy Boston merchant, and President Coolidge's closest friend, mer. Being in part a Howell, Pete Moore was present by invitation. The first thing the members of the Association did upon arriving at the hall about time, oclock, was to scatter themselves around the banquet table, where they satisfied the "inner man" and the "inner woman" in the enjoyment of a delightful seven course meal. When this part of the program was finished, Dr. Rivera, president of the association, arose and briefly stated the object of the meeting, namely, to join in with other alumni, who at that same time, in different places throughout the Country, were celebrating Charter Day of Howard University. Dr. Rivera then called upon Miss Margaret Minor, the secretary, who read a very interesting and informing paper upon the origin and development of Howard University. When Miss Minor, finished reading her paper, each alumni present was requested by the president to say something on the occasion. Every one responded, and in doing so, seemingly satisfied the debt of gratitude and obligation which he or sheowed. Howard University in aiding them to be of service to themselves and humanity. When all but one had finished expressing their opinions and relating their experiences in connection with Howard Dr. Moore, the professor Moore to close, this part of the lecture. Professor Moore, responding, told the members of the association that, in complying with the president's request he felt that he was somewhat like Amazas or ancient times, who, when Dido, the queen of the Carthaginians, asked him to tell her of the seige of Troy, said among other things: "Pars jullus ful" of which I was, so far as the beginning of Howard University is concerned. For said he, "four years after the U. S. Congress, in 1867, granted a charter to Howard University, I articulated as a member of the Preparatory Department in the fall of 1871 and was graduated therefrom June, 1873." Professor Moore further said that as he reverted in thought to his experiences as a student, during his two years' preparatory college at Howard, it was of inestimable value in after life. That General O. O. Howard, of the finest, most sympathetic and Christian men who ever presided over an American college. That, while only members of our own race group attend the University now, when he was there not only Negrees, but Caucasians, Mongolians, Japanese and Indians trod the departments as students in the different departments of University, as the charter allowed no duplication or entrance on account of color, or nationality. That he recalled one of his friends, Latun was Professor J. J. Kardozio who soon after resigned and went to South Carolina and was elected treasurer of the State and held that office until 1876, when he with others had to fleet the S. J. COTTMAN Real Estate AND Investments who, after graduating, went into different parts of the country and came leaders of thought and of the race in its uplift and advancement. Professor Moore quoted the words of a colored preacher, who in describing the archs of Biblical times, said, "Breden, days when men were men," applying the thought to the period when he was a student at Howard Professor Moore kept a scrap book which he makes a series of interesting souvenirs of his days in the schools, which he has attended in the past. Therefore, at the close of his very interesting and illuminating reminiscence, to the surprise and of the younger alumni, he presented for inspection two of his term reports on winter and ship and department for the winter and ship terms of his senior prey and year, and the graduation program in June 1873, containing a list of speakers, together with the subjects upon which they spoke, nearly fifty-two years ago. When Professor Moore finished, the election of officers for the zenning year took place. Miss Margaret A: Minor elected president; Miss M. O. Tyson elected treasurer; after which the meeting adjourned, subject to the call of the president. Zion Church Missionary Women Meet At Newburgh Newburgh, N.

The occasion was the annual observance of Negro Night and the program presented as J A Wilson, head of the English Department, who presided, said: "a retrospection of the progress made in the past and in introspection of the possibilities of the future." The program began with Benjamin Brawley's poem, "A Prayer" recited by Miss Lula L., Clayton, of Montgomery, a stirling stanza of which is: "If brooding o'er the wrongs we grieve. Our hearts forget to turn to Thee. Or if they'e do not believe. That Thou in time wilt hear our pila. Hope of our race stand by us then." Smooth Hair In 5 Minutes NO OILS, NO SOAP, NO IRONS—A SIMPLE HOME TREATMENT While in the Army I met a colored prince from the Army possessions Africa. He was of royal blood free from Africa and other languages and had beautiful silky smooth hair. We became acquainted and, I asked him what he used on his hair. He told me that he used a hair dryer and used exclusively by his family for generations. I did him a favor and he repaid me by giving me the rectory for this wonderful half dress of others. It is harmless does not burn the hair, does not turn it red, does not make the hair stick and greasy, looking but rather smooth.

Mary Gibson, of Sheffield, Alabama, pointed out that, impulse of the fact that our-group receives only a little of the money, $9,100,000,000, expanded annually for education in the United States, that the race had reduced literacy in ranks from 80 per cent in 1865 to 20 per cent at the present time, and that there are more than 500 colleges and normal schools operafed primarily for Negroes.

"The Negro has not only demonstrated his ability to accumulate a part of the world's goods" declared Miss Florence White, Lake Charles, La., in discussing "Science and Inventions by Negroes," but by his inventive genius has contributed much to the economic development of the Caribbean.

M., asks The Age to give space to his disavowal of responsibility in connection with the story published in the issue of February 28 in which it is stated that Walter O.

Smith with which he made to Samson's leading of the finances of "Bouyer" Lodge, and that it was Samson, and not Bouyer, Lodge which was come concerned. Please allow me to state that the expression, "Officers of Samson Lodge" is somewhat misleading, as it might imply that it included the present worshipful master and his staff were referred to. As a matter of fact, I, as worshipful master, want to disclaim any connection with the matter, and an印象 Lodge has failed to reveal a single one who acknowledges having given the information referred to. I want to state plainly and emphatically that I knew nothing of the information being given The Age for publication and am not in any way to be considered as responsible for the publication EDWARD R.
