SURVEY OF BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT ON SEVENTH AVENUE
ANGLO-SAXON, TURK AND JEW ARE CAPTAINS OF HARLEM INDUSTRIES WHICH NEGROES PATRONIZE
On The East Side of Street in The District Extending From 125th Street To 135th Street There Are a Few Colored Women Doing Successful Business
In a business sense, "the wheels of industry" is a term which may be applied to the "Almighty American Dollar." It spins around in Harlem in a thousand and one different enterprises, in which colored workers constitute much of the motive power, while the whites operate the throttle.
In the east side of Seventh avenue, the blocks extending north and from 125th to 135th street, here are approximately 150 places of business, of which about sixty are banded by colored people. There are enterprises operated by colored managers, but which are owned and controlled by whites, Jews and Gentiles—and the Cubans, Italians and Jews form an integral part of the city.

There are two churches in this section; one the Metropolitan Baptist Church at 128th street and the other the Allen Memorial Spiritualist Church at 135th street. Colored people are operating florists, stock brokers, agents, furnishing, newspapers and chap shop shops, one of each being located on the one side of the avenue covered in this survey. There are two private schools operated by whites, one is a business school at 125th street in which the students are white, the other is a music school near 135th street, in which the students are colored
The Lafayette Block
The Lafayette Building, between 113st and 114th streets, gives one food for thought. In that block is one business each in the lines of drug store, cabaret, poker club, saloon and vaudelle theatre, all owned by whites, while colored men operate the Lafayette Barber Shop, the Lafayette Billiard Emporium, the Daybreak Social Club, and a newsstand. In summing up the general business showing in the entire district, it is found that the whites have one each in the line of shoe store, fur shop, piano store, plumber, jeweller, artist supplies, auto accessories, bondsman, dry cleaner, coal and ice cellar, vegetable market, painter and decorator; two each in line of dentists, opticians, clothes shops and radio supply shops, three each in line of watchmakers and lunch rooms.
The colored people have two each in line of shoe shine stands and print shops, three each in line of dress shops, billard parlor shops, employment agencies, tailor shops, newsstands, five barber shops, six lunch rooms, six real estate offices and eight beauty parlors.
In other words, our group has 40 per cent of the business enterprises in the ten blocks, but cashs in on maybe - per cent of the cash exchanges. For example, Abhog the food line, we match the profits of six lunch rooms and a hot dog stand against from six beef markets, five delicatessen stores, six groceries, three lunch rooms, a soda fountain, and a vegetable market, all owned by whites.
In the line of pleasure, profits on three pool rooms and a social club are pitted against the earnings of a vaudeville theatre, and a cabaret operated by whites, and all patronized by colored people.
In the clothing business, we have five tailor shops, one men's shop and one shirt hospital, to compare with a shoe store, three shoe repairers, four hand laundries and two clothing shops, one of them operating on the time payment plan.
In the line of women's supplies we have two dress shops, one dry cleaner and two millinery shops, compare with a fur shop, a jewelry store, three repairers, operated by the other race. Another instance is that we have eight beauty parlors with five drug stores that sell beauty preparations and household necessities all races, creeds and colors.
In the ten blocks on the East side of Seventh Avenue in that section extending from 125th street northward to 135th street, it is suggested by well informed citizens that someone could make money on office furniture and supplies, an office furniture and supplies locksmith, carpet terminator, pet annual shop, vexum exterminator, milk dairy and carpenters supplies.

Gypsies Rob Brooklyn Colored Man Of $7,080; Rob A Jew Also Told Him That He Had 151 Evil Spirits Under His Skin And That She Would Completely Rid Him Of The Wicked Things
Young women who work as maid servants can find employment almost any day at the King College Apartments on the corner of Amsterdam avenue, at 501 West 121st street, by applying to the building superintendent at that address.
It is not that there is need of such a large working force, or that the work is very fascinating, but that the opposite is the case and the girls are quitting constantly.
They are paid $15 a week for an eight-hour day, with Sunday afternoons off and must board themselves. They keep a nine-hour working day, diving the first eight hours and is a smart maid who finishes her work on time. If a maid completes her task before quitting time and goes home, she is given a severe calling down on the following day.
One complaint the maids register among themselves is that they are required to cart around an oil mop, a wet mop, a vacuum cleaner, a pail, rags and a heavy bunch of keys, throughout the day.
There are about 250 maids taking care of approximately 250 furnished rooms. The building has two floors, on each floor, and the whole structure has been converted into one large rooming house, in which many of the roomers are students.
There are no housemen to do the heavy work, as in the average house operated on the hotel plan. The mads are required to carry around a large bag to collect waste paper, take charge of the garbage cans on their respective floors, take down the curtains from the windows once a week and hander them; oil the floors; mop the kitchen, and swing the wicked drum cleaner. No mads are needed to care for some of the mads who have done hotel work, as well as house work, claim that they have never before heard of a maid in a furnished-room house washing window curtains and doing the heavy work that belongs to a houseman. For that reason every Saturday, as a rule, several of the mads shake the dust off their feet at the King College Apartments and every Monday morning new girls are up for initiation Roomers, it is said, rarely see the same face twice, and are complaining.

Patrolman Thomas Brisbane met B.A. Smith, news dealer, 55 West, 132nd street, out in the streets; Thursday, March 19, and Smith alleges that Brisbane gave him his number. But the number that patrolman Brisbane gave to Smith was not the number of his shield number 0086 or the number of his phone number 0086 or the New York age number 0864. It was the number that Brisbane was playing under the name of "Poor Boy," and it came out in the clearing house balances on the following day.
When Brisbane met Smith on the street and handed him a slip of paper with the number 086 scribbled on it Smith further alleges that Brisbane asked him to get it in for him but did not give him any money and that he told Brisbane that he could not get it in, because he did not bother with number playing, but the patrolman insisted, with "Oh, go on and put half a dollar on it for me." Smith says that he put the paper in his pocket and told Brisbane that he would forget it, which he did. The following day the number came out on the evening papers Clearing House reports that Smith pays him that he would make trouble with Smith. The newdealer says he agreed to pay the patrolman one dollar a day until the $300 had been paid, and handed Brisbane eight dollars on account which the officer accepted.
Monday morning two Special Service man came into Smith's store while he was out and his wife was on duty. They walked behind the counter and searched the store without displaying a search warrant. During the search by the two detectives, Mrs. Cecelia Smith alleges that Patrolman Brisbane came into the store.

Cruel Woman Puts Baby To Torture For Sipping Wine
When her little 6-year old adopted daughter, Marie, got hold of a bottle of wine and, out of curiosity, sampled it, Mrs. Pannie Bryant of 269% Marion street became so incensed she grabbed the baby and thrust its hands against a hot stove, infiltrating severe burns.
Her patient happened two weeks ago, but Mrs. Bryant was not arrested until neighbors complained Children's Society and Agents Kress and Harsted made an investigation. It was not until the child was taken to the Society's shelter that its burns received attention. The two weeks' neglect, said Dr. Lysacht of the Children's Society, had caused a serious condition.
Mrs. Pannie Butz, an incapacitated invalid, who lives in the Bryant home witnessed the assault and will testify.
Mrs. Bryant brought the battle of wine home for her own use and when she discovered that the child had opened it she seized the baby and tried to force its lips against the store according to Mrs. Butz' story to the officers. The child squirmed and screamed and slid out of the muffled woman's grasp. In terror, she tried to escape, but the crazed woman seized her the second time and pushed the child's hands against the stove and held them there while the house echoed and recoiled with the child's scream and with shrieks of protest the Mrs. Butz. Against the entry, finally rushed into the house and found Marie moaning and wringing upon the floor, clasping her tortured hands to her body.

Garvey Loses Appeal To U. S. Supreme Court For Review Of His Case
The Justice of the United States Supreme Court at Washington, D.C. has literally written "Fins" to the Marcus Gayev court drama. Monday March 23rd, the Supreme Court announced it's refusal to review the case "The Professional President of Africa, who is now in the Atlanta, Ga., Federal prison serving a five-year sentence on conviction in New York for using the U.S. Marsh to defraud Negroes in the sale of black in the "Black Star Steamship Line." The court announced it's refusal to review the case without any explanation in denying the petition for a wrist curator, which actually closes M. Gayev's case. Mr. Gayev asserted through his counsel, George Battle, that the wrist curator should be granted a tenure of justice—and to protect the perimeter in his enjoyment of constitutional glaze in prison and pay a fee of $1000. It is reported that Gayev has a heavy job washing dishes in the prison kitchen.

What might have developed a serious and dire tragedy, with possibly both citizens and policemen dead, was averted Sunday by the calm, cool-headed action of a courageous and capable Lenox avenue uniformed traffic officer, who stopped two white plain clothes men from down town from beating up an innocent Negro, and at the same time saved the two officers from a threatened tragic end at the hands of outraged onlookers who were enraged by the unwarranted action of the headquarters' men.
The white officer was in an auto which stopped at 145th street and Lenox avenue just as a surface car was discharging its passengers. The officers discharged the law which requires auto to maintain a distance of eight feet from street cars receiving or discharging passengers, and ran up near to the stopped car. A young colored boy, apparently of about 18 years, alighted from the car.

Notwithstanding their disregard of the traffic law, one of the officers addressed some kind of upraising remark to the young colored boy. In ordinary street clothes, there was nothing to indicate their official

Aggaults The Boy
Notwithstanding their disregard of the traffic law, one of the officers addressed some kind of upbringing remark to the young colored boy. In ordinary street clothes, there was nothing to indicate their official standing; and the boy gave them answer in kind. One of the men jumped out of the car and struck the lad, who resented the act by hitting back. With this natural show of resistance, the second officer jumped out, and ran to his comrade's assistance.
When the two men attacked him, he colored boy drew a knife in self defense. The sight of the knife caused the men to turn him logge with alacrity and they pulled their guns. The boy ran, followed by the two men, and took refuge in one of the garages on 14th street. The officer followed him, with drawn guns, and took the garage, garage quoted as declaring that as they dashed into the place they uttered threats to kill the fleeing boy.
Traffic Officer Takes Hand
In the meantime, however, the traffic officer referred to above, who was working at this corner at the time, had witnessed the whole occurrence and had followed the action to the garage. And he was just in time, too. For a group of onlookers, witnesses of the potential brutality of the infuriated pursurers, having heard the threat of killing as uttered by them, had armed themselves with wrenches, cranks, hammers, metal bars, and divers other sorts of improvised weapons, and were making ready to take a hand in the game. But the contagious traffic officer, unaware of the identity of the two white men, and took charge of the situation. In response to his interrogation, the men declared they were headquarters men. They were told that if the man had committed a violation their course was to arrest him, but not to beat him. This advice they spurned at first declaring they would give him instruction as to the law concerning makes arrests.
Called Their Hand
The unformed officer was not to be bluffed or bullied, and he knew positive regulations. He demanded then that the men clammy to he headquarters men identify themselves to him, or he would take them to the station house. And notwithstanding their blistering that they had to do.
And when they were making potential threats as to what would happen when they preferred charge, against him, the tool-headed traffic man told them that as evidence of his knowledge of police regulations and rules, he would teach them with summaries for violating the law in stopping within the 80ft zone. Then the men quitted down.
And in the meantime, the young colored lad, who escaped being made a victim because the colored uniformed officer knew his duty and had the cool, calm courage required in performing it, has disappeared.
The crowd of White and colored sympathizers who had assembled and armed themselves as best they could, angrily muttered to the uniformed traffic cop as the moment came to an end.
"What did you come so soon for? There would have been born hell to pay there as soon as a those hell had got inside and stared out shouting. The police was asserted out that would have been due according to all reports, entirely to the unrestrained and raging passions of two white plain clothes men who themselves were violators of the law they are paid to protect.
Venereal Disease Found To Be Negroes' Greatest Cause of Disability and Death
United States Public Health Service Has Established The Division of Venereal Diseases For Study of Disease and Development of Prevention and Cure Methods
Washington, D. C.-The. United States Public Health Service, realizing the vital need of men with sound, healthy bodies for the army and navy service, during the recent world war created the Division of Venereal Diseases. This department has mad exhaustive surveys of the entire country, and brought out facts relating to the diseases which have been of great help in developing means of curbing and controlling their spread.
One of the vital facts brought out is that venereal disease is quite often found in persons who are absolutely innocent of any criminal or vicious act. The fact of innocent action has been brought out and given such publicity as to make it possible to wipe away much of the secrecy and unwise reluctance which has hitherto affected victims of the loathsome plague.
The medical experts of the bureau have discovered that infection always follows exposure to the 'disease whether the exposure is free from guilt or not, and this discovery is paired with the fact of modern science that has evolved a method of cure. Figures published by the Bureau shows that of 4,807 cases of infectious diseases in New York City in September, 1924, there were 1,639 cases of venereal disease as against 820 subcutaneous cases, or 34 per cent of the total.
And it is pointed out further that general infection rate among Negroes is doubled that of the whites, syphilitic diseases being probably the greatest cause of death and disability in the colored race.
To counteract the ravages of these diseases, the Public Health Service, through its Venereal Disease Division, has been actively cooperating with the various state health agencies in spreading true facts of life of sex, and of disease, and has published a set of pamphlets pointing the way to prevention and cure.
These books are six or groups or its and may be obtained from the various State Boards of Health. Set is for young men; Set B for officals and the general public; Set C for nurses; Set D for parents; Set E girls and young women; Set F for educators.

Want Sub-Treasury Building Saved As National Memorial
City Club Is Asking Secretary Mellon To Preserve The Historic Edifice
A movement has been started in New York by the City Club, through Joseph M. Price, chairman of the club's board of trustees, to save for posterity one of the city's most interesting buildings as a national memorial and historical museum. The Sub-Treasury Building, built and Wall streets is being in mind.
On the site occupied by the building, George Washington was inaugurated as President in 1789. In 1700, a City Hall occupied the site, later a Congress Hall and Federal Hall. The present building, a fine example of Doric architecture, designed by J. A. Frazee, was completed in 1841, first used as the Custom House.
On the south terrace is a heroic statue of George Washington, executed by J. Q. A. Ward. Alexander Hamilton conducted treasury affairs there. Thomas Jefferson outlined international policies, and James Madison developed the Bill of Rights there.
The action taken by the City Club is because completion of the new Federal Reserve building and the removal of Treasury officials to that building will make disposition of the historical Sub-Treasury necessary, as the building or site may be leased or sold.
Mr. Price has written Secretary Mellon, urging that action be taken to preserve the building. In his letter, Mr. Price said to Secretary Mellon that
"The erection of a modern office building on the location would not only destroy the historic building, as well as the statue of Washington in front of it, but would also shorten the day. It would also this financial center. It would darken the streets and still further increase the crowding and congestion."
"It has been suggested" continued Mr. Price, "that one teacher at the museum should provide a permanent numismatic collection to counter" the specimens of coinage from the fleet of this country, of all medals struck by act of Congress, of all decorations awarded by Congress; of all issues of postage and revenue stamps made here; of all bonds, notes and other government obligations, and of all Colonial flags and flags of the United States."

11 MOTHER ZION CHURCH WANTS $10,000
The Rev J. W. Brown, pastor of Mother, A. M. E. Zion Church, is seeking to interest 1,000 men and women to contribute $10 each to ward-farming the pews for the New Church Edifice now underward. Farming the pews will be completed with $200,000 people. The present church will be filled and into a Community Center for service to all the people. The pews and organ for the new church will cost $40,000. There will be no competition with other churches, only along cooperative lines, as Dr. Brown believes that all of the church organizations should pull together for the fuller development of the people of Harlem. Send him your ninie with your check for $10. If you can't give $10, then give $5 or, as Dr. Brown advises, the contribution can be paid in installments within 90 days.

GOOD CITIZENSHIP IS THEME OF JUDGE LEVY'S TALK AT 119 Good Homes, Good Children; Parents' Assn. P. S. 119 Hears Fine Program
"Be good citizens and your children will be good citizens" was the advice of Judge Samuel D. Levy of the Children's Court, to more than five hundred parents at the regular meeting of the Parental Association of Public School 149, Max Harvey A. Tupper, principal, on Thursday night, March 14. Judge Levy said that of the more than 800,000 school children of the city, 7,500 passed through the Children's Court as delinquents annually. Some of the causes of their delinquency were poverty, with overcrowded and unsanitary home conditions, the lack of religious training and respect for sinners, and the bad examples set by parents. The speaker declared that many people were parents that had no children, and that the wonder in that there are not more delinquents than we now have.
Prof. J. B. Hillyer of the College of the City of New York spoke on social hygiene and took issue with Judge Levy on one of his assertions. He stated that he had known many parents who were upright in every way, yet one of their children became "the black sheep of the city." Nevertheless, he stressed the need of uprightness as a requisite for the proper bringing up of children. Short addresses were made by Mrs. Williard Parker, chairman of the Big Sisters; Miss Heida of the Catholic Big Sisters; Mrs. William Kelly, probation officer; Miss Elizabeth Farrell, inspector of Ungraded Classes; and Miss Grace Campbell, court attendant. Miss Flora Israel had charge of the program. George H. Royall, baritone, and Miss Ralston Worano, fumished a pleasurable program. David R. Moore, chairman, presided.

New York society has recently had the shock of its life by the marriage of one of its millionaires to a Jeffrey whose ancestry is now at issue. The groom has repudiated his bride, and begun treatment proceedings alleging she deceived him as to her race.
The bride is securing the world for evidence to prove she is what he claims she isn't—white. Romance has been shipwrecked on the rock of color. The bride apparently made the mistake of playing the game both ways. She was white, then again colored. Appendages to the way of colored relatives were deprenial.
The groom balay a millionaire, newspaper reports were unleashed like blood-hounds to trace an ancestry for his bride. At first it was Spanish, as is usually the case when a dash of paprika is needed; then Italian, finally they started American civilization with plain Negress, and white society threw a fit. It is alleged proof positiv is given her racial identity by the naturalization papers of her father which describe her as a Negro. She can't well-escape her father. If he had put "Baboonian," the day would have been saved, and white supremacy appeased.
There is usually as slip somewhere in this "proudly" business, which is particularly "indigenous to American" soil. Other countries don't have as much race superiority to support.

The Col. Chas. Young Post, 938, American Legion, is in the midst of an enthusiastic drive for new members, the goal being 500 by July 30.

Asked to make a statement concernin the matter, Mr Robinson had the following to say:
Robinson's Statement.
"Had it not been for the Grace of God, and the love, I have for Bethel, I would have left the church. Mr. Thornton and Edwards, through hatred, malice and spite, have done all in their power to ruin me, but I wish them well, and hope nothing will ever befall them in life, and after life a peaceful entrance into the haven of rest. I have been going in and out of Bethel and the City of New York for forty-two years, with thirty-seven years of active service in the office of the Pennsylvania Railroad Co. with not a blemish on my character.
picked up, about three year ago, $800 in bills and checks, which I returned to the owner rather than keep it. In the month of May, 1924, when the General Conference were away to the General Conference, I received a committee of the church gave me $20 more than was set down. Did I keep it? No, I banked it for the church. My receipt for that month was $488.88, and I banked $808.88. The bank book of the church will hear this out.
Grateful To Friend
"I wish to thank the members of Bethel Church, more especially the women who have so loyalty stood by me in this trouble God bless them, and remember, my home in Freeport is free to all who may visit the annual conference, and to take part in welcoming the new minister to Bethel
"In June, Mr. Edwards said I cwed Bethel Church: $213,751 in June, it was $214.59. August, it was $206.99. November, $164.28; now, it is $1.53
"I want to thank the care sister, a lonely widow, who on last Sunday, when I was being painted in a black form, said that I needed any money to call her. She died in Israel in Thank you most heartily, but I need it, as I told you then. I believe in peace and harmony in the church, I believe in honesty and truthfulness, and above all, let us trust in God and do the right
"In conclusion, let me use these words 'Rejoice not over me, oh, mine enemies, for I have not fallen!' Far from it I am a member of Bethel, and will continue to be when Thornton and his little man Friday are things of the past Thornton came into Bethel under a storm of fire and he is going out under Edwards' eyes. Edwards told Mr. Raynor that I was strictly honest. But I want no endorsement from Edwards as to my honesty. An endorsement from him is doing me more harm than good.

RACIAL PREJUDICE ON THE INCREASE, SAYS DR. CADMAN Says No Man Can Call Himself Christian Unless Free From Prejudice
Race prejudice in the United States is 50 percent stronger than it was before the World War, the Rev. Dr. S. Parker Cadman, president of the Federal Council of 'Churches of Christ in America, declared at the joint annual meeting of the Brooklyn Urban League and the Lincoln Settlement Association, held Friday night, March 20, at the Central Congregational Church, Hancock street and Franklin avenue. No man has a right to call himself a true Christian unless he is free from all prejudice, Cadman said. He made a plea for equality and, regardless of color, greed, and urged that all prejudice be forgotten. Dr. John Hope, president of Morehouse College of Atlanta, Ga; and Dr Thomas J. Riley, general secretary of the Brooklyn Bureau of Charities, were the other speakers. E. Kinkele Jones presided.
Dr. Hope explained the reasons for the extensive migration of the Negro farmers from the South to Northern cities, declaring that it is "duesmostly to the injustice to which the Negro is subjected in the South." He said that in Georgia alone there were 55,000 deserted farms two years ago, and pointed out that this condition is destroying—the prosperity of the South. The Negro peasantry is breaking up, said Dr. Hope, and there is no other class he lives in. Dr. Riljay said that the lines of division between the white man and the black man are broken down, and that "the question of social equality will be melted away by the respect which worthy achievement will command. No matter what the color of the man's skin may be, if he does withhold things he will be recognized," he added.

After an exhaustive hearing before a referee appointed by the court, the opinion was landed down by Justice, Clarke that the mugger had ordered him own the mugger received by the court in a pose of paying the rent; in no doing had been guilty of professional misconduct; and that it was the opinion of the court that he should be disbarred. Justice Victor J. Dowling, Edgar S. K. Merrell and John W. McAvoy, sittings with Justice Clarke, unanimously concurred in the opinion and Newman's disbarment ordered. Glads of the court's opinion, given in the New York Law Journal of Saturday March 14, is that:
"Where an attorney, was given, a sum of money as rental for certain, prepares leased, which he agrees, to return to the tenant, in the event that possession under the lease, were not possible, held that when the attorney did not return, the money, when it was absolutely, due he converted the same to his own use, and is guilty of Professional misconduct and must be held guilty." Newman was admitted to the New York Bar in July, 1900, and had practiced ever since, in the state and local courts.

Austin, Texas—F Rivers Barnwell lecturer to Negroes, Texas Public Health Association, states that many towns in Texas have signified that they have about completed their plans for the observance of the seventh annual Negro Health Week in Texas. It is expected that three-fourths of the Negro population will be reached during the week April 5-11. This health observance began with the late Booker T. Washington. Its plan and purpose is to serve as a seven-day school of instruction and inspiration for better health. It is hoped that its effect will last through the year, making the first observance of Negro Health Week and the regular constructive work that the Texas Public Health Association is doing, the health of the Negro, has been greatly improved. It is hoped that preventable diseases will soon be reduced to a minimum. ?

From pkt to dome, Carnegie Hall was thronged on Monday night, March 25: the occasion being a program of Songs and Songs From Dixie aid of the $8,000,000 Endowment Fund Drive now being conducted in interest of Hampton-Tunkeegee Institutes. Dr Ir. Nathaniel Dett head of the Department of Music at Hampton Institute, was by charge of the program, and Dr. William J. Scheioffelin, chairman Tuskegee Institute Board of Trustees, was master of ceremonies.
Admission was free, but all seats were reserved and the demand was far greater than even the ample accommodations at Carnegie Hall were able to take care of. At 8 o'clock the hour the program was scheduled to start; the lobby of the hall was jammed to overflowing with folks who were without tickets but hoping to find some means of winning entrance. At 8.30, the doors were thrown open, and scores who had been on the outside were soon on the inside and had taken possession of every available seat. Ticket-holders, coming late, were in hard luck
Chief Justice Taft Spoke
One of the features of the evening was an address by Chief Justice Wm. H. Taft, former President of the U.S., who is president of the Board of Trustees of Hampton Institute. The address was delivered in Washington, and radiated to the Carnegie Hall in Chicago. Mr. Taft declared that "constitutional rights now denied the Negro will be accorded as he obtains greater economic power and becomes more useful in industry." Laws alone cannot guarantee rights to men, said Chief Justice Taft, but the Negro will get them when he is generally respected and recognized as an equal of other citizens. Hampton University Institute, he declared are the greatest single force in America toward producing this result.
A short talk was given by Thomas M Campbell, field agent, U.S. Department of Agriculture, who was described as having been the best Negro farmer in Alabama prior to being in the government to assist in teaching the Negro farmers the value of scientific farming processes.
Dr. Moton's Address
Dr Robert R Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, was the final speaker. He referred to the decrease ni lyphones, and ascribed it to the growing influence of the Interracial Commission's now functioning in different parts of the South. He said that southern white women had gone on record as decrying lynchings, replying to the assertion that mob law was necessary for their protection by passing resolutions declaring that they wanted no manlace of chivalry over them that was not likewise entended to colored women. He thanked the people, white and colored, of New York for their splendid support of the campaign in behalf of the increased endowment fund for Hampton and Tuskegee and thanks were also extended the country at large. Dr Moton asserted that it was not the white man's color that made him the power in the world affairs, but his courage. And that it would be the black man's courage, but his color, that would enable him to take his place alongside his palefaced brother.
The Musical Program
The Tuskegee, Institute quartet sang a number of songs, including Spirituals, folks songs and ditties, and the Hampton Institute Office Club, under Dr. Dyett, gave several numbers. This group of young men, 28 in number, wearing the uniform of the Hampster O. T. C, rendered splendidly "Swing Low, Sweet Charity," "Deep River," (Burleigh), and "Babylon's Falling" (Detti), as their first offering.
Their second group comprised two Coleridge-Taylor compositions, "Viking Song" and "Drake's Drunt," and Harry Burleigh's "Mother of Mine." Then Abu Wahre, Panker of the glee club, sang Detti's "Follow Me," with the composer at the piano, and Dr. Detti played two piano solos, "Song of the Shrew," and "Dance of Disrese" from his "Inchantment Suite," the two numbers bung on outside in textural tone, and color.
The final number was a Trade Tableau presenting an animated reproduction of the activity consequent to 21 trades which are taught at the two schools. Accounting, automobile repairing, automobile body building, breaklaving, cabinet making, carpentry, composer, contracting, cleaning and pressing deafening forming, harness making, house painting, machinist, plasterer, plumbing, president, secretarial work, shoe repairing, sign painting, suit fitting, tailoring, tinsmithing, upholstering.
While they come here were lying on the Spiritual Ground. Go down. Mr. Seymour.
NATHAN ZOLINSKY, LEADING HARLEM ELECTRICIAN, POINTS OUT NEED OF COOPERATION
According to Nathan Zolinkin, Hairdin's oldest and largest electrical contractor, the colored electricians of New York, should improve, their status in the trade by becoming members of the Electrical Board of Trade of New York, Inc. This is a co-operative organization of several hundred electricians, representing the leaders in the business in Greater New York.
There are only five colored men in the organization—the two Hattlemens (Grenler, Turner, and Elmer S. Swayer, were induced to join by Mr. Zolinsky, the other three are in the Bronx and Brooklyn. All of the colored members learned things about, extinguing and "warned" the trade, which they never knew until the members in addition they become acquainted with other men in their line with whom they can swap experiences to their mutual benefit.
Should a sufficient number of local men
A series of motion pictures, typifying the race development attributable to Hampton-Tunkegee Idea was also shown during the evening, with incidental organ music played by Dr. Dett.
Dr. Moton was the guest last Sunday morning of Mt. Olivet Baptist Church, West 35rd street, the Ree Dr. Wm P Hayes, pastor, and the one given a most cordial reception at the Carnegie Hall meeting Dr Moton stated that up to this time the colored people has subscribed approximately $100,000 to the joint fund.
Student's Attitude Is Changed By Conference Contact With Race Group
Atlanta, Ga.—An interesting feature of the Interracial Movement in the South has been the organization of interracial student groups in a number of college centers, by which white and colored students are brought together at regular intervals for the exchange of views and the promotion of understanding.
The following story shows how the plan works:
At an early meeting this year of the Atlanta group made up of students from three white and three colored colleges, the question of higher education or Negroes was raised that he did not believe in it; he thought it unnecessary and undesirable. He was asked to bring in at the succeeding meeting a paper in support of his new, while a colored student was asked to prepare a paper on the other side. With much interest the group looked forward to the expected debate.
At the next meeting of the committee, the white student was called upon for his paper. He replied, "I haven't any. When I began to look into the subject, I found I was wholly mistaken. My view is completely changed. I believe now that cooled students should have the same sort of educational opportunities that other people have. "Not only say, he continued, "I think we ought to do something about this matter. A great many people still think as I used to, just because they do not know. Let's go to work to get the facts over to them through the press and otherwise."

Morris Brown Debaters Out-Talk Clark University
Atlanta, Ga.-On Friday evening, March 6, the first annual debate between Morris Brown and Clark was held in the Morris Brown University Chapel. The subject was, "Resolved that the United States Government should adopt a federal system of education."
All of the speakers were forceful and eloquent in their main speeches, but the argument against a federal system of education as set up by the negative speakers was too strong to be torn down by the Clark debaters. Special mention should be made of Miller and Williams of the affirmative, and Troup and Lockhart of the negative. The rebuttal speech of Cornelius Troup was he feature of the program.
The speakers were:
Affirmative—Morris Brown University James Miller, Eleanor Williams, Frederick Hendon
Negative—Morris Brown University Peter Montgomery Cornelius Troup, Adolphus Lockhart

GOVERNOR AND LEGISLATURE
In the contest which has been going on between Governor Smith, the sole surviving state officer elected by the Democrats last fall, and the members of the Republican legislature, the Governor seems to have ordered the winning points. This is largely because the Governor has taken advantage of sound Republican policy and ranged himself on the side of economy and tax reduction. The Republicans, led by Lieutenant Governor Lowman, were unwise enough to impose this policy, and allowed the Governor to appeal to the people, who approved the plans.
The Republicans through their partisan opposition to sound Republican policy have asked the Governor to pose as the advocate of the principle of economy and tax reduction, which they were finally forced to accept. They had adhered to the policy so successfully carried out by the Coolidge administration in national affairs, they would have avoided the blunders which have characterized their course at Albany. Lessening the burden of taxes and economizing in the exashes of Government is a policy which was dorsed by popular vote, and elected a Republican President by the largest majority ever registered at the polls. The same policy is demanded in State affairs.
The voters of this city are particularly invested in the adoption of such a policy, for effect that it will have in the municipal action this year. There is great need for economy and efficiency in the city administration. Under the rule of the Democrats the widens of the taxpayer and the rent payer are steadily grown, until the increase of taxes, and the consequent increase of rents, are almost reached the breaking point. In meantime, public improvements have been to keep pace with the swelling population, and overcrowded subways and part-time schools are some of the results.
The people would welcome the advent of administration that would remedy these matters by a constructive policy of economic improvement. The Republican party has the opportunity to wrest the control of city government from the present holders. Its leaders can show reasons why better rights may be expected of them. But unless the party can show a good record in the administration of State affairs, it cannot go the voters in this city with much assurance of success. The actions of the Legislature, far as it has been guided by Mr. Lowman and other legislators of his calibre, have computed to hamper and handicap the Republican organization in this city.
It may be that the Legislature before its final adjournment will mend its ways and have a record that may be a help instead of indicap for New York City Republicans in coming municipal campaign. It is time that the leaders of the party realized the responsibility that is theirs.

FIGHTING AGAINST DISEASE
The United States Public Health Service is engaged in a constant fight against disease. This service is conducted as a bureau under the control of the Treasury Department, being at its head the Surgeon General, when it became necessary to select abled men to serve in the world war. Conn in 1918 established the Division of Vereal Diseases to counteract the effect of depletion of their numbers from such cases. The ravages of such diseases may be reported from the statement that 363,000 cases were reported in this country dur-
The United States Public Health Service is engaged in a constant fight against disease. This service is conducted as a bureau under the control of the Treasury Department, having at its head the Surgeon General. When it became necessary to select able-bodied men to serve in the world war, Congress in 1918 established the Division of Veteran Diseases to counteract the effect of the depletion of their numbers from such causes. The ravages of such diseases may be ganged from the statement that 363,000 new cases were reported in this country during the year ending June 30, 1924.
The government is now engaged in an effort to control and stamp out such diseases as wholesale destroyers of the health and wealth of the nation. To do this effectually, it is necessary that the public should be informed of the prevalence of such diseases and then infectious character. Silence on the subject does not aid. Just only tends to spread the trouble. Hence the Public Health Service has begun the distribution of a series of articles to the history and the tribulation of such charges from the time when the sailors of Columbus brought the disease from Spain to Haiti, in 1494.
Later articles will tell of the economic cost of such diseases to the nation and to the individual taxpayer, the physical effects of such disorders upon those affected, and the measures to be taken by the community.
the individual and industrial concerns to control them. The effort is to focus public attention upon the danger to life and the community incurred through ignorance and indifference to this subject. That the question has a local as well as a general interest is shown by the statement that out of 4,807 cases of infectious diseases in New York City in September of last year, 1,639 were cases of venereal disease. Even the dreaded white plague, tuberculosis; paed in comparison, as it claimed but 820 cases. What is more startling is that the rate of Infection among Negroes is alleged to be double that of the whites. "It is said that syphilis is probably the greatest cause of death and disability in the colored race."
We quote this last statement from the matter sent out upon the authority of the Public Health Service and leave it to our physicians and surgeons who are more familiar with the disabilities of the race, to determine its accuracy. The fight against all forms of venereal disease is one that deserves to be waged under government auspices. It is a subject that has long been shunned by reputable practitioners, which has given its victims over to be exploited by quacks and the compounders of worthless nostrums. It is well that this information should be spread under proper authority, so that the ignorant may avoid infection and those suffering from such troubles may be encouraged to seek proper medical treatment.
At the same time the virtues of cleanliness of person and housing, fresh air, indoors as well as out, proper rest and recreation must be emphasized and excesses of all kinds avoided.
PADLOCKS PROMISED FOR HARLEM
As was suggested in The Age some weeks ago, United States Attorney Buckner has decided to extend his use of padlocks to stop booze selling to the Harlem district. In the course of the campaign waged by The Age for a year, or more, publicity has been given to the brazen defiance of the prohibition laws shown on every side in this territory. Regardless of threats sent by mail and voiced through the telephone, The Age has continued to give the names and addresses of those places where the law is violated by the sale of so-called liquor.
Col. Hayward, the former United States Attorney, aided in this campaign in every way possible and proceedings were brought against many of those engaged in the distribution of booze. The police also cooperated in raiding some of these places and putting them out of business, but it was only for a time. The bootleggers, after having been arrested, would secure bail and their cases would be put on the already congested court calendars, awaiting trial, while the accused would resume their illicit calling, either at the old stand or in near proximity to it.
Under the padlock injunction system now being tried by Mr. Buckner, the proceedings are shortened and action more summary. No time is wasted in waiting for the case to come to trial, but upon proof of the violation of the law an order is issued for the padlocking of the place for a certain period, running from one to twelve months. This operates to close up the joint as soon as the order is signed by the judge and the marshal can send a deputy to the place. The booze seller can do no further business at that place during the injunction period and the landlord forfeits his right to collect rent.
Action of this sort by the United States authorities will help to make the campaign started by The Age more effective and stop the sale of poisonous liquor in Harlem. The determination of the United States Attorney to extend the operation of the padlock injunction to Harlem is a most hopeful sign, and ample evidence will be found to close all the booze joints whose addresses have been published from time to time in this paper.
Summary methods are needed to cope with such impudent violators of the law as the bootleggers of Harlem. A large supply of new padlocks will be required in order to curb their activities.
NEITHER JUDICIOUS NOR JUDICIAL
We are glad to see that the Richmond county judge, who seemingly voiced his regret that a Negro prisoner convicted before him of robbing an artist's wife, had not been burned at the stake, had the grace to add a few days later that he was constitutionally opposed to mob rule and lynch law. He is entitled to offer his own interpretation of his utterances though few will be found to agree with him that nothing that he had said could reasonably be interpreted as approving of lynch law and rostering race prejudice. This afterthought of the judge was published in the New York World of last Saturday, some days after he had regretfully imposed a sentence of two and one-half years at Sing Sing, upon a verdict of assault in the second degree. We quote from the World.
The evidence showed that Barrett had robbed an artist's wife at New Brighton, after striking her with a bottle. Judge Tiernan reimbued the jury for the leniency of the verdict, and reported in The World, said to the prisoner: "If this had happened in your home State of Virginia you would have been burned at the stake." In his letter, a copy of which he sent to the World, Lawyer Patterson arcee, Judge Tiern
man of fostering race prejudice and 'giving voice of praise' to mob rule and lynch law. Judge Tleran said yesterday that he had been correctly quoted in The World, but he added that as a matter of fact and as a matter of course he was constitutionally opposed to mob rule and lynch law and that nothing he had said could reasonably be interpreted as approving them or as fostering race prejudice.
Judge Tiernan made in substance the same reply to a delegation of Negroes who called at his chambers Wednesday and expressed their disapproval of the language employed in sentencing Barrett.
The judge must realize by this time that his reference to what might have happened in such a case in the State of Virginia was neither Judicious nor judicial. In fact his remarks might be construed as offering an unwarranted affront to a sister commonwealth, all of whose officials are sword to the administration of the law, the same as Judge Tiernan is, and who would resent the imputation that such a case of assault and robbed could not be punished without resort to mob action. Judge Tiernan owes an apology to the great State of Virginia, as well as to the voters of Staten Island, whom he tried to incite to contempt for the formal processes of the law.
Judicious thought before judicial utterance would have averted this unhappy break and saved a lot of judicial dignity.
· PROFESSIONAL MISCONDUCT
The relations between an attorney and his client are so close and confidential that any breach of them on the part of the former is held to indicate bad faith and to demand investigation by the courts. This is only a proper exercise of judicial protection for the custing layman, too often at the mercy of an unscrupulous and grasping attorney, who will not hesitate to fleece his client, if he thinks he can get away with it unpunished. One of these unworthy members of the bar was recently held guilty of professional misconduct and disbarred by the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court, in proceedings instituted by the Bar Association of this city.
The facts as stated in the New York Law Journal showed that the attorney received from the complainant the sum of seven hundred dollars, to secure the lease of a cottage at Rye, for the season. Possession of the cottage was never secured and the lawyer failed to return the money to the would-be tenant. Even a suit in which judgment was secured against the attorney failed to produce the cash. Hence the taking of the case to the Bar Association and the disciplinary proceedings instituted by that body.
The principle of law laid down in this case, upon which the Appellate Division based its order disbarring the attorney from practice of his profession was as follows:

Hence the taking of the case to the Bar Association and the disciplinary proceedings instituted by that body.
The principle of law laid down in this case, upon which the Appellate Division based its order disbarring the attorney from practice of his profession was as follows:
Where an attorney was given a sum of money as rental for certain premises leased, which he agreed to return to the tenant in the event that possession under the lease were not possitioned when the attorney did not return the money to the tenant, and due, he converted the same to his own use, and guilty of professional misconduct and must be disbarred.
While all the parties in the above proceeding were white, the principle of law and the defining of professional misconduct hold good for all attorneys and clients, without regard, to race or color. Cases have been heard of in Harlem where attorneys have been charged with retaining money entrusted to them by tenants to secure certain premises, when neither possession of the premises or return of the money has followed. Such professional misconduct may be suffered for while, but all clients may not be so compliant as to swallow the loss without seeking address. Cases of this kind when taken to the Bar Association are liable to result seriously for the unscrupulous attorney. Suspension or disbarment is the penalty that waits him when brought before the judgment of his fellow lawyers.
The true type of lawyer will justify the confidence that his clients have to repose in him and will avoid the least suspicion of professional misconduct, not only because of the risk that it involves, but because of his determination to live up to the high standard of profession has set for him.

THE ORDER OF THE DAY
"Numbers" and gambling of other sorts are the order of day in Harlem. Cigar store marts, with rear rooms fitted up for games chance, are among the methods employed certain Jewish proprietors to inveigle the suspecting. These places are a menace to young men who are impelled by curiosity to kill them and try a hand at whatever diversion is presented. All sorts of schemes to parade the foolish and unwary from their
"Numbers" and gambling of other sorts are the order of day in Harlem. Cigar store fronts, with rear rooms fitted up for games of chance, are among the methods employed by certain Jewish proprietors to inveigle the unsuspecting. These places are a menace to young men who are impelled by curiosity to visit them and try a hand at whatever diversion is presented. All sorts of schemes to separate the foolish and unwary from their money are practiced in such resorts. Those who visit them are on the road to certain degradation and moral destruction.
Several of the great New York dailies announce their function as "those wicked panders to availice and ambition," by the display of placards on the newsstands of Harlem, to the effect that they are "first out with the Clearing House numbers." What a role for the successors to Dang and Bennett to play!
There is need for a new order of the day that should rally the forces of law and order to fight against these evils that are preying upon the community to include such an order in its program for civic improvement.
Comments By The Age Editors On Sayings of Other Editors
The advantages incident to, "Visualized Education," were set forth in an editorial in the Washington Tribune as follows:
We wish to congratulate the authorities of the schools of the District of Columbia, and elsewhere, for their recognition of the value of motion pictures in public education, and we also congratulate the theatre managers for their willingness to co-operate in the campaign.
"Churchgoing" formed the subject in an editorial in the St. Luke Herald Reijpond, in which some figures given; which showed unexpected re-quote:
By general observation, in a community that has, for instance, a dilation of sixty thousand, forty sand are listed in the membership of various denominations. Out of this
It is said that Thomas A. Edison was the first to suggest that motion pictures be used textbooks in our schools. We do not know the author of the idea, but we do know that they are, to some extent, being used in instruction in geography. We also know that there is a prevailing belief among educators that the teaching of history may be aided by historical, pageants which show such events as the arrival of the Pilgrims at Plymouth. Teachers who take their pupils to see films of this sort, or to see films which show Alaska, Colorado, et cetera, report excellent results. And the day may not be far distant when every schoolhouse, perhaps every classroom, will have a projector of it own—when the film will play a highly important part in impressing young minds lessons which cannot be taught as effectively in any other way.
The lasting effect of impressions received through the eye, especially among immature minds, is universally recognized. As an a'ed to modern education the value of the right kind of films may bereadly, conceded. The Tribune advocates an appropriation by the government for this purpose.
In the course of a comprehensive address on "Advertiser and Space Buyers," C. A. Franklin, editor of the Kansas City Call, made the following reference to "big" Negro business:
The Negro who advertises nationally runs all the way from those superlatively good patrons like The Poro College here and Madam Walker company in Indianapolis, down to the little fellows who value advertising by its cheapness. Natural selection will correct much of the weakness in these little fellows for the same methods used throughout their business will eliminate those units to get on. Some lines of business need to be sold on the Negro press. I pointed out a little while ago that our paper groups their price was free. Another one, the Standard Life of Atlanta, thought we were good when the clouds of trouble gathered over it. The fact is Negro business in insurance, investment and banking lines will never get over the reputation of being largely stockpobbing schemes until they advertise to get patrons. They must not advertise inerely to get stock buyers. White competitions businesses make regular campaigns of advertising to increase their patrons. They still have the bulk of Negro patronage, with hole financial campaigns of advertising in financial placed by insurance companies, stock dealers and banks. Getting the millions of dollars spent by Negroes in the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, for instance is a big job, requiring brains, persistence and advertising. Without advertising the race will not acquire confidence in our companies stability. It is handicap enough for them to try to sell their service through such salesmen as are available in competition with the experienced forces of the old established white companies. And when they try to get confidence on their salesmen as are available to fail, they ought to fail. We have no reason for holding the Negro press cheaply. We have sold soft goods and oil stocks, and we can sell their much needed protection. I think we have spoiled these malagany desk and upholtered chair magnates by the eagerness with which we have swallowed their press agent stuff
Editor Franklin has accurately set forth the harm done in one direction through the too liberal use of press agent stuff by our race newspaper. All big business should include advertising as a necessary item of overhead expense. Treating the problem of training and instructing the mind of a child, the Northernwestern Bulletin, appealed conceded that modern science has developed practical methods that are helpful, but not always effective. It continued.
The power sustained intellectual effort and attention depends upon physical factors, and not only varies according to the individual, but also varies in the same individual during different periods of life. It is no means corresponds with the growth of the body framework, but is really dependent on the internal organs of the body such as heart, lungs brain and nervous system, and the muscular system, determines the date of manifestation of the fuller powers we call adolescence. It is comparatively easy to measure both mental and physical attainment at difficult, however, to measure capacity for either physical or intellectual work in spite of examinations and class marks in registers there is no recognized tardier for measuring physical or mental vigor of children and the causes why particular children surpass or below an average. We judge children empowered by their age and might. Both children empowered by their age and might. For this reason it is difficult to doubt whether a given pupil is putting teeth adequate or excessive effort. We would advise both student and parent to give the matter consideration.
If the student is not making the gradual there is a reason for it. Self and you may point out the flaw, then seek to remedy it. By its means deprive you of abilities through any thought of integrity. Your color was given to you by your Creator—in whose image you are and you are the descendant of an honorable and historical race, whose civilization and cultivation antecedent that of any other race of mankind on earth. Therefore take heart, have courage and rejoice in your being.
Environment and incentive to study are also cited as factors in determining the progress of the job. Your placement at home and at the school have port to life, deeply, at budding intellect.
The Age Readers' Forum
"Churchgoing" formed the subject of an editorial in the St. Luke Herald of Riephond, in which some figures were given; which showed unexpected results. We quote:
By general observation, in a colored community that has, for instance, a population of sixty thousand, forty thousand are listed in the membership of the various denominations. Out of this aggregate of 40,000 only 15,000 or 20.00 can be discovered in the local congregations. This is a disproportion. From a purely business point of view, by showcasing the organization, which decided failure of all, and lack of loyal allegiance to a major social unit to which most of us belong. This percentage of church deserts indicates a general weakness, which shows up throughout all our institutions and organization activities. If we slacken, in faithful loyalty, in one great sector of the city, it will follow us throughout all the other fields of effort.
It if fortunate that in regularity of church, to dance the Negroes are falling behind the whites, the attendance of the former being spasmodic. If this is true, it would argue that the church is losing its hold on the race, which has heretofore been noted for its religious leanings. The ministry should be alert to recognize such a tendency and adopt proper measures to offset it.
The Buffalo American asserts that no greater injustice is being done the American Negro than that practiced by organized labor. First, it shuts them out of industries by barring them from the unions and then refuses to work, with them in the shops because they are non-union men. It continued:
The message to the Labor movement in Rochester last Sunday evening but gives articulation to a thing which is in the mind of thoughtful Negroes throughout the North. Much credit is due the Rev. James E. Rose who with fierce eloquence and sane logic put this situation in its own Forum platform. Rochester's situation is not unlike conditions in Buffalo and other northern cities. "True it
Gouging Real Estate Men
Editor of The New York Age
I see by The Age that the tenants in Harlem, New York, are having a very hard time of it. The same is true of their kitch and kin here on Washington, the Nation's Capital. I was told, years ago, that Negro "overseers" on slave plantations in the South were worse than "ole masters" or the white overseers." Since the Negro has gotten into the real estate business simply as a middle man one need not be surprised at his inclination to rob his own people. Along the line of rent, the Negroes of New York have nothing on the Negroes here in Washington. It is no wonder the Negro does not prosper in business to the extent of gonging large trade among his own people—the such a gouger. Given there are some good real dealers here and many, fond two three in a bunch of a hundred—but the reel of coins cause the people to look up the gonges when it comes to gonging in rents and sales these Washington real estate Negroes are the limit! They have no mercy on their own people. I love to patronize our people—and would love to point them out the others, but may save us from these miserable gongers—such as are in the business in Washington.

How Much Do You Get For It?
Are you selling your health?
If so, how much do you ask for it?
Do put it differently. Do you sell
to your employer, your time and
eight hours of energy, or are you
selling how all your nervous force,
your color, your resistance to dis-
care?
If you are doing the latter you
must ask enough in wages to care for
you in expensive illness, and to care
for you in having grown old and
helpless before you must get at all now and put it away

to ask him for it.
How foolish of you to sell your health for the salary which buys only eight hour of energy? If you asked him about this he would tell you that the last thing in the world which he war "to buy is your health or any other personal health. Many people waste themselves. It is well to give all the money running over "That is the way the管理者 than the way which the管理者 the songs person who gives "only what he expects. There is a way by which this can be done without wasting the most precious possession a human body has—health. If work is heavy and cannot be achieved then you must make up for that drain upon your body, by food, sleep and fresh air. It is too heavy and fresh air. The pudicous—sagacious—living you must ask for help from your employer, or you must come some other work.
Better a crust of bread eaten in peace than a banquet eaten under conditions of unhappiness. Better less money and health than more money and poor health. What does it profit a man or a woman if he or she insures theaters clothes or health theaters clothes or health theaters clothes
some of the Unions are no Negroes, but these 'Unions' in such a security of followers, as against the great demand for work that must be taken in an organized manner of giving them the opportunity of enjoying the privileges of collective bargaining. There are a number of Unions in the city of Buffalo that do not admit Negroes into their work in addition so this will see their work is disfriended regarded to their skill or efficiency and made impossible for men to earn by the grade which they spent in and money to learn. Negroes are frequently branded as strike breakers as a matter of fact the only way to get to utilize their skill as they men is when their white worker is struck.
The influx of black workers in many of the great industries of the Nation should bring about a change in the tide of union labor, as a matter of self-interest as well as justice
The Norfolk Journal and Gazette made editorial headline propounded the commurd, "Is 'Jazz Becoming Classical' and quoted in favor of such a conclusion Leo F. Reisman, who is regarded as the leader of the resident jazz orchestra in Boston. It said:
We must bear in mind that Boston is considered the city of culture. Mr Rennairi says that the leading Jazz composers are Negroes and Jews, that may be called a combination of African and African melodies and rhythms is a synaptized form of music elaborated with anything from an old derby hat to a tin pan. It has been said by a student of music that rattle me and not jazz was our national folk dance and the Hungarian dances, Spanish dances and Polish mazurkas were all interconnected dances and closely related to the American synaptized folk dance.
It the culture critics of Boston tolerate jazz it stands a chance of becoming classical. It is gratifying to know that there are many people who can appreciate the music of the artists. When works of a celebrated music are being rendered, the audients a content on listening; there is hardly a murmuring sound, but when jazz is played there is the usual foot accompaniment. Of the uninterrupted pouncy of music of the jazz variety there can be no question, but whether it will drive the test of time long enough to be used classic is another matter.

We hope that foreign papers will not try to put anything over on the people of Yonkers. It is all right to write up our city, but the method of financing a writeup is not clear to us. We know that we have no paper here among our people, but we have access to the columns of our leader weeklies, who are very fair with us and we urge our people to support these publications. But we will not stand for any hobnobbing with our people. New York has unloaded real state sharks, new-paper sharks, quarantine doctors, secret society crooks and many others, but we wish to very notice on them now that we are taking our eyes open

Salem M. E. Church
Services last Sunday were as usual inspiring and uplifting. Rev. Cullen though still weak from his recent illness was able to deliver two sermons and from officiating in the Lyceum, League Sunday school. For the morning lesson Cullen elected to talk on the influence the Word of God. He pictured God's word as being the impelling motive, the manding spirit behind each manifestation of nature or nobile impulse on man. "As the sayings of great, men are weighed and cherished," he added, "so the words of Christ are valued for their life giving qualities." Buddah all around us is nothing less than the word of the Divine unfolding itself both, men, and it is for us to avoid the mistake of loosening sight of God beholding the things He has made."
At 7.45 Dr. Cullen addressed the Benevolent and Social Society in their annual services. This time Dr. Cullen quoted the scripture "We are the light of the world." The sermon was an interception of this famous message. Dr. Cullen voiced the belief that light brings comfort, gives solace and penetrates qualities in itself the discover itself. To-personify these factors in a world of comparative darkness is the solemn calling of every christian.
A very interesting service was conducted at the Lycme at four o'clock Dr. William P Hayes of Mt Olive Baptist Church and his congregation were the invited guests. Because their pastor was in Europe at the time of Salem's Celebration Mt. Olive did not have a part in the original jubilation. On Sunday afternoon, however, they paid their tribute in a fitting manner. The Contribution of The Negro Church to Racial Progress' was Dr Hayes' subject. The growth of the Negro church was traced beginning from its humblest down to the more pretentious edifices to the church. The church has always been symbolic of the Negro's faith he said, ever persisting under adverse circumstances. Viewed from a material angle, the growth of the church is the one evidence of race progress. It is a known fact, said, the churchhas given encouragement to every worthy movement, many of them growing out of the church.
Miss A Allen and Robert Howell lead the discussion at the Epworth League. The topic was very ably handled by these young workers. Registration in the educational courses conducted nightly is steadily growing. Reports from this department claim there is a great demand for the courses offered. The Young Men's Athletic Club held membership games on Thursday evening last. Many members of old time Salem Crescent fame participated. Peter White is in charge of this work.
Union Baptist Church
Sunday was an ideal day for church goers. The weather was delightful. The morning service was well attended. Our pastor was at his best. His message on "Obedience" was well delivered. After the service, we were favored by some selections by theologieke Quartet.
At Sunday School 230 p. m., the lesson was well with keen interest. The R. Y. P. U. Miss Lottie Kendrick, president, had a wonderful meeting. The topic for discussion was "What can we do to win others to Christ." The program was in charge of group number three, Mrs. Frierson, leader
Rev. Mr. Jones delivered an excellent sermon on "The Three Groups" at the missionary meeting.
At the evening service, Mary A Johnson Memorial Council and the G W Baptist Memorial Council, both of the I O of St. Luke, and their invited guests, R H Jones Mem and G H Sims Counsels met for their annual sermon. The synopsis of the orders as given, showed great progress made by the Mary A Johnson Council in eight years, and the G W Baptist Council in three years. The proper title, the pastor, Rev G H Sims was presented. He spoke on the subject, "The Enemies of the Cross."
The offering for the day was $1,020.16.

Mt. Calvary Ind. Meth. Church
The pastor, Rev. J. N. C. Coggin spoke on "Conversion, What Is It?" taken from Acts 9:17-19 last Sunday morning. The auditorium was filled to capacity and many who came in late were taken to the gallery. In this striking address he unfolded the real meaning of conversion as follows:
There are a great many people who are confused, and have many misconceptions as to what it really means. They are confused. there are more who are uncertain as to what they might be classed as Christians because of these doubts and other misunderstandings. A discussion on the subject of what conversion is might serve a useful purpose.
The dictionary gives several definitions of conversion. "A spiritual or moral change of belief with conviction, a change of heart; a change from the service of the world to the service of God; a change of the ruling disposition of the soul, involving a change of heart; a change is interesting to note that the whole scheme of salvation and all the acts of the Apostles together

First Emmanuel Church
A glorious day was enjoyed by all who attended the services at the church Sunday. In the morning, Pastor Bolden preached from the following text: "And they were all amazed, and they glorified God, and were filled with fear, year after year." The theme of the day is "St. Luke 5:26. Theme: 'Strange things to day.'"
- Pastor Dolden said, 'While this text has to do with the powerful demonstration of our Lord the Emmanuel, on an occasion that forced this utterance from both His foes and His friends, the idea "Srane things," can fit into our experience to day. The observers and supervisors in our great national atmospheric labyrinth were not able to foretell the force and power of a certain storm that was visited upon certain sections of our country and died leaving its wake a great loss of dear living disease, and general wreck and ruin of property in many towns. In this we are seeing strange things. The sudden fire that burned the hotel and buildings at Palm Beach, a beautiful resort where the pleasure seeking wealthy people of our country and of the world gather in the winter for sport and refreshment, impresses us as if it has a significance, and to us this is a strange, thing today. The recent study of the bed of the Pacific Ocean around Japan for the purpose of accounting for the daily and often earthquake, has brought to light the fact that Japan constitutes Japan is a high and slender mountain peak rising on the edge of what appears to be a deep bottomless chasm, whose mouth is wide and large that some scientists wonder how Japan is kept above the ocean under the strain of the atmospheric pressure and the vibration caused by the moving of

the earth around the sun. May, and this account somewhat the "the impregnable and fierceless death in the mind and spirit of the progressive and inrocious Japanese" The leadership of these people, among the Asiatics, their recent bond of friendliness with the Soviet government of Russia, and the training given the Japanese artisanal army, by the airship, builders of Germany, and the American fleet carrying on maneuvers of naval warfare in the far off basis of our islands in the Pacific Ocean, are strange things to us today.
President, Cipillage's growing New England, capped, which represents men who stand for the enforcement of all the Attendments to the Constitution, at a time when the people of African descent are asserting themselves with a determination to have the 14th and 15th amendments to the Constitution enforced, as well as the 18th, so that they, may enjoy all their full rights along with any, other citizens in this nation, in a strange thing day. The new religious consciousness of the Emmanuel led on and encouraged by Bishop Hison. The Episcopal Church; the quick acceptance of groups and liberal thinking, people, is also a strange thing to-day. Out of this movement may not there-day. Out of a Holy Universal Catholic Church into which denominations will constitute various orders and this church confederating with Judaism will give to the world a great religious leader. Is not this spirit and prospect strange to-day? In the humanity may not our Lord the Emmanuel, the house of mankind, teaching and teaching both to His friends and foes, while friends of paralytic races, nations and classes are being brought to Him over the heads and through the roof minds of the people because the curious, selfish, ignorant and unbelieving crowds keep them from approaching Him through the door and windows of sight, hearing and feeling. But determined, people with, an undaunted spirit through the ages up until now have lowered this selfish phase of humanity at the feet and presence of our Lord the Emmanuel, who forged sinn and as God He speaks to us, ful, helpless beings and groups in the face of critics and unbelievers: "Astice, take up thy couch of experience upon which you suffered and laid so long and go into thine house." In this our eyes have seen strange things to-day.
At 2 p. m., the Sunday school was opened by the superintendent, Rev. William H Hogans. A short talk was given to the children by the pastor.
At 8 p. m., the evening service was well attended the absence of our pastor, a preacher of the Rev. William Hogans conducted the services and preached. His text was: "Neither shall they say, to here, or to three, for behold the kingdom of God is within you." St. Luke 17:21. Theme: "The kindism in its spiritual aspect." The dinner was served during the day he ministered the Sunday school. Splendid music was rendered by the choir at both morning and evening service.
Harlem Second Seventh Day Adventist Church
"The Essence Of Apostasy," was the theme of Pastor Stracian last Sunday night at the Harlem Second Seventh Day Adventist Church, 106-108 West 127th street. Among other things the speaker told his audience: "Jesus Christ founded the christian church more than nineteen hundred years. That church was not necessarily the Baptist Methodist church, the Presbyterian church, the Congregational church, not the Adventist church. It was distinctly the Christian church, a church made up of Christian men and women.
"After a lapse of five hundred years that church evolved into the Roman Catholic Church. The Bible specifically notes the rise and progress of that church. Scholars everywhere style her the new order of things, or the apostate church; because she made a departure from the early practice of the early apostles and saint John the Baptist, the papal church. She became the name-the church. She is still mystery church, and is likely to remain the mystery church until the close of time.
"Heathen Rome persecuting good men, was a matter of course; there was no mystery about that. But an institution advertising itself to be he Christian church, and at the same time drunk with the blood of martyred saints, is a mystery—a staggering mystery."
"Daniel pictures this church as the little horn of the none-descript beast. John represent her as the leopard beast, also the scarlet colored beast. Today, that church sits a queen and beasts that she knows no sorrow. Why is it that she she is portrayed in strange and natural symbols? What is her crime, and what is the essence of it? We shall examine and see."
"Cardinal Newman, one of her princes, declares that the very essence of her claims—lies in this—that there is upon the earth a representative of our Lord, something divinely interposed between the soul and its God. This is the essence, says the cardinal, and all other characteristics are subordinate and flow from this one thing."
"If that is the essence of the papal church, friends, then, that is the vital cord. If that would break, then the papal church would cease to exist. I repeat the statement—something interposed between the soul and its maker. Listen as I read, dear hearers, from the pen of Rome herself substantiating her claims. The name of the writer is Ms. Michael himself, and this book is approved by the pope. "The priest is not only almighty in heaven, and never a man, but he is almighty upon earth. Behold a man is fallen into the hands of the devil, what power is able to deliver him? Call to the assistance of this unhappy man the angels and changels, holy Michael himself, chief of the host, conqueror of Satan. They will never be able to sever the chants of the sinner." The priest can do it. While upon earth, Jesus Christ declared himself to be the ladder whose base rested upon earth and whose top most round reached into heaven. He allowed no one to tump his position to another to the shipwrecked, as star sailor, the bridge upon which the Father was separating above. Christ said, he was the shepherd and no man can reach the Father save aside this only mediator. Christ Jesus, and substitutes in its place mortal flesh.
"Oh that you my friends, tonight,
could grasp the full significance of the papal device. It puts a priest between the soul and its Maker. It puts Christ
In the background and exults a shouten and wailful crying. This is the essence of the greatest prayer. Its only answer during the dark was the reformer and the reformation. "What shall be its protest in this present hour."
Rendall Mont. Pres. Church
Dr. Lawton gave his congregation last Sunday" morning a thoughtful and eloquent discourse on "The Need of a New Spirit." No one could have heard such a diacourse and not have been benefited.
The evening meeting was an inspiring praise service, conducted by Elder Clyde Kendall. De-Lawton will preach next Sunday morning on "The Analytical Power of the Gospel." The Christian Endeavor will have charge of the night service. The bazaar committee is putting forth every effort to give the public a splendid week of attractions and entertainments.
Eloquence, pathos and solemnity were most beautifully and wonderfully combined in the presentation of the sermon Sunday morning. The theme: "The Master Teacher," at once caught the attention of an audience that was unusually large and responsive. Bishop W. L. Lee and Dr. P. M. Jacobs were after speakers at the morning service. Mr. Godbold of Yonkers, N. Y., district superintendent of Sunday schools of the Hudson River District, addressed the Sunday school at 11 a.m. At 8 p. m., Dr. Brown filled the pulpit again, speaking from the theme: "Hostile Waiting." The different phases of his subject dealing, with men waiting for some particular season to associate themselves with the church, commanded thought and consideration.
The patrons' ticket for the Easter cantata by the senior class of the church are being sold at a rate that assures a large audience on that occasion. The members and friends are cooperating in the thought and spirit of the occasion in closing the Passion Week services with this religious operas. W. Brown, wife of the pastor, returned to the city Friday from a visit to her home, Edenton, N.C.
Siloam Presbyterian Church
The Rev. George Shippen Stark, pastor, preached a splendid sermon 'at the morning service last Sunday to a large congregation. He had as his pulpit guest the Rev F. A. Bennett, pastor of the Witherspoon Street Presbyterian Church, Princeton, N. J., who read the scripture and offered a favored invocation. The trustees are planning for the Easter services and for a special offering from the membership.
Announcement was made of the special services to be held on Sunday evening, which will be known as Collegiate Night. Arranged under supervision of Attorney Stanley M Douglass, who is being assisted and supported by officers and members of the various Greek letter fraternities and sororities of the city. High school students are especially invited, as the meeting will feature also the Go-To-College-High School movement.
The Spring Carnival is to be held April 21-24 in the Parish House.
The trustees held, a pew rally at 4 p.m., last Sunday, with an address on Harlem conditions by Fred R. Moore, editor of The New York Age, and musical numbers by Miss Marguerite Kathleen Kennerly, pianist, and Mrs Cora Gary, the Dameson institute, both students at the Dameson institute of Musical Art. Additional numbers were given by Pery Gallego, tenor, and the chorus under direction of L. H. White, organist-director Jerome B. Loring presided as master of ceremonies, and closing remarks were made by the pastor.

Dr. Henry Hugh Proctor has been assisted in evangelistic services for eight days by Dr J. Flynn, of Charlotte, N.C. who has been preaching with great spiritual power. Large attentive audiences have been attracted to the parts of the Metropolis. One of the meetings was that for men only Sunday afternoon, when a great group of men heard the evangelists stirring address on social purity. The audience was deeply moved, and many signified their intention of living better lives. Their meeting was a union service with the Sarton Y. M. C. A., Mr. A. L., Comister, secretary. Dr. J. E. Moorland presided, and gave much inspiration to the meeting.

Newman Memorial Church
A splendid congregation greeted Rev. T. W. Cooper at the 11 o'clock service Sunday morning, March 22. The morning sermon was preached by Rev. J. H. Williams who chose as his subject, "The Christians Ideal." The text was selected from Color 2 (Y) "WHAT IS THE LORD OF WORD or doel, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks unto God the Father by Him." The sermon was in the nature of a spiritual inventory, and the preacher sought to bring the congregation into a heart to heart discussion of the world done by each during the conference year just closing, and the motive that had prompted their service. The children assembled large school number at 1 p. m. and at 7 p. m., Mrs Carrie Harrie, president of the Footeworth League conducted an interesting song and praise service.
At 8 p. m. the pastor preached to a fairly good attendance from the subject "To Emmans and Back." The text was taken from Luke 24:17 "And he said unto them, what matter of communication are these that ye have one to another as ye walk and are sad?" Dr. Cooper in the course of his sermon encouraged his hearers with the thought that sorrow, pain and anguish antidoted joy and gladness. That through suffering many times, the blessing of God were often discovered to be hidden from our view and when he patiently we were made to rejoice Sunday, March 29, will be Cooper's last Sunday before congregation. It is the desire of all who appreciate a real man of God that he be returned to Newman and complete the work he has so ably striven to do during his four years in its pastorate.

DEMPSEY IS BARRED FROM N.Y. BY THE STATE BOXING COM.
The New York State Athletic Commission has placed Jack Dempsey on the ineligible list in New York and forbidden New York promoters to have anything to do with any suspended or ineligible boxer.
The action against Dempsey was the result of the champion's failure to make a satisfactory reply to the challenge of Harry Wills. Wills' challenge was transmitted to Dempsey by the commission on March 6. According to the boxing law the champion had 15 days in which to accept. His only reply was a rambling letter signed by his manager, Jack Kearns, which amounted to an evasion of the issue.
Since Dempsey holds no license in this state it was impossible for the commission to suspend him. Neither did the board consider any attempt to declare Dempsey's title vacated.
It is the opinion of boxing followers, that Dempsey's suspension will put an end to Harry Wills' quest for the heavyweight title, as no New York promoter dare negotiate a match outside the state between the champion and leading contenders less he lose his license in this state. Both Wills and his manager are also forbidden from having anything to do with a fighter who has been barred in New York.
For this reason Wilfs will accept a bout with Tom Gibbons as the feature attraction of the annual Milk Fund show. Following this bout, which takes place in June at the Yankee Satellium, he will meet George Godfrey and any other heavyweight who will fight him.

M. C. A., was handed a severe poll, by the officials last week Granville, who started from scratch with Willie Plant, the American champion, had things all his way after the latter dropped out of the race at the half mile mark. Although Granville allowed liberal handicaps to a mediocre group, at no time did he seem to exert himself and appeared to everyone that he had won fairly. After crossing

Ansel Bell, bantamweight fighter, who used to fight under the name of Kid Butler, arrived in New York on March 17 after an absence of more than six months, during which time he visited Australia, China Japan and the Philippines. Most of his time was spent in Australia, where he secured several fights. He was not however, very favorably impressed with that country, nor with the Australians. He saw there of much more prejudice there than in the southern part of the United States and that the sporting

VINCENT RICHARDS BEATS B. M. CLARK IN FINALS OF LIGUANEA TOURNAMENT
Jamaica B W I — In the presence of His Lostency the Governor and Lady Wilson the international lawn tennis tournament came to a close at the Jamaica Club Saturday afternoon, February 28. The principal match of the afternoon was the finale of the men's singles in which Vincent Richards of Yankees, NY scored a brilliant victory over B M Clark, former singles champion of the American League Association and the Island's official champion. The score was 6 0 0 6 4 8 6.
Clark was at a disadvantage throughout the game 00 to the round all the time. Richard drove both hands were tattered and to the net. Clark attacked from the net who was unable to hit it was exceedingly difficult for him to there because of the pace of the game. When he did succeed in putting the forward position he did some splendid volleying in fact, scored the majority of the points in the way.
Richards' serve was consistently faster than Clark's, especially the second deliveries, but Clark's carried a lot of pace and was well placed—he acted like a vice almost a dozen as the starter little America. The game was densely faster than the encounter at the presenlss saw Clark being much more accurate as well off his backhand.

A short argument ensued which resulted not only in the Canadian walker being counted out of the race but also his suspension by the A. A. U. When the next two runners protested this action they too were suspended. Several of the daily papers protested against this unfair treatment of the Canadian runner so effectively that the suspension was lifted before Saturday so that he could take part in the Morningside A.

TIGER FLOWERS MAKES $60,000 FIGHTING IN PAST TWO MONTHS
According to current reports in Harlem fistile circles, Tiger Flowers, fighting an average of six fights each month, earned $60,000 during the months of January and February. Flowers received more than $10,000 for his two fights with Jack Delaney, and is said to have gotten from $1,000 to $4,000 for his other fights.
Some sharp criticism has been made of his manager, Walk Miller, for permitting Flowers to fight week after week, without giving him a let up. But since Flowers proved to be the best drawing card of the winter season, Miller justifies his action by saying he was helping his fighter to get the money while the opportunity was present.
There has been a marked decline in Flowers' physical condition since the first of the year, and indications are that he won't be able to box much longer if he continues his present pace.

KID NORFOLK'S BAD EYESIGHT CAUSE OF RECENT BAD FIGHTS
A number of people have come forward with the explanation that Kid Norfolk lost both of his latest fights because of defective sight. According to these people, Norfolk has received so much扎扎嗒嗒 about the head, that he can hardly see out of his left eye, and the slight from his other eye is gradually fading.
This makes it necessary for the 'Kneed' to adopt the 'inflighting' style and when ever an obpendent 'stays' away from him and compels him to lead, Norfolk is almost certain to meet with disaster.

Hampton, Hampton. With a basketball
championship, success fully tucked
away, the Hampton Institute men
are turning to the spring sports in
preparation for a strenuous season in
baseball and track. Officially, the
season opened a few days ago when
Coach Gideon E. Smith sent out the
call for candidates in both sports. At
this time forty baseball and thirty-
five track aspirants signified their in-
ention of competing for positions.
Hampton's active preparations for
the coming season, however, did not
start until this week, when all c
candidates were called outdoors. When
the full quota of those who will
participate in both track and baseball
answers the call, the number is
expected to increase materially.
With its annual championship track and field meet scheduled for May 16, with invitations received from the Penn Relays and Drake Relays; with its first baseball encounter to be staged on April 18; Hampton expects the active training to be in full swing, that the material for both track and baseball, and also tennis, will rapidly round into winning form. Effects are to be made to recapture the track and field championship and especially to bolster the diamond squad. In the National pastime Hampton has, not been particularly good, and this year the coaches will center their efforts in producing a team which will at least finish in the first division.
In track the prospects are especially bright. Hampton's greatest loss in track is in hurlers, William D Williams, Ernest L. Simmons, and W. Warrick Cardozo, who finished in that order in the high hurdles, either graduated last year or did not return. Several prospects loom up as possible winners in these events, and with the return of William McK. King, who set the record in the 220-yard hurdles in 1923, Hampton will be a formidable contender in the 1925 meet here. In the track events Hampton has always made creditable showings, but in the field contests, except for a few events, Hampton has
CABARET NEWS
(By JOHN E. FRAZIER)
Edwin Small's "Pepy Quartette" which is composed of Misses Maudie Woodson, Alto Oates, Mabel White and Johnny Davis, assisted by Lee Golden's Credle Syncopators, seems to be the newest attraction down Fifth avenue way. The original Walters Revue is becoming a sensation up town, and the barn dance every Wednesday night is drawing big crowds. Frank Montgomery's International Follies Company was the invited guests Wednesday night, after the show at the Lafayette Theatre.
Miss Rose Swan, the Philadelphia dancing doll, is making a hit at Philadelphia Jimmy's Club, singing "My Best Girl." Obie Smith's orchestra is featuring "I'll See You In My Dgams, and Miss Kitty Mardelle is singing "Big Bad Bill"
Gilbert Irvis and his Serenaders are doing all that they can to show the public a royal time at the Arcade Inn. Miss Evelyn Brown is a very pleasing entertainer in her role as a smart singer and dancer. The head waiter, Ira Green, sees to it
Capt, Robert A, Coles, Jr., of the track squad, a brilliant distance runner and record-holder, expects another championship squad this year, and in conjunction with the coaches is planning an intensive program for the winged-foot athletes. Several new faces appear among these, all of whom have given indications of stel-performances. Within a few weeks more can be said of these men and the veterans.
With baseball the situation presents more perplexing problems to the coaches, for exactly seven positions which veterans filled last season must be refilled this season with new material. Capt. II. C. Jacobs is unable to play, due to a recent leg operation, and Edward Hargrove is centering his activities in track. With Hargrove working on track and Ruffin now a graduate, Hampton is deprived of two of her best boxen of last season. Shortstop is open, because Jacobs is out; the catching position, the left field, second base, center field, third base, and the pitching position must now be filled. This is quite a task, but in the weeks that remain the many enthusiastic and promising candidates will be put through rigorous practices. A strong nine is due to follow the process.
The signs point to a successful culmination of the present term's athletic activities. Track has the material for another championship team, and with the added incentive of trips to two of the greatest relays. Penn and Drake, it is expected that this

MRS. MURRAY SINGS GLORIOUSLY FOR KATY FERGUSON-SOJOURNER TRUTH HOMES ON TUESDAY NIGHT
imperial Auditorium at 104 West 129th street, on Tuesday, March 24, furnished the setting for one of the most enduring artistic musical events of the season, when Charlotte Murray, mezzo soprano, supported at the piano by C. Lewis as accompanist, sang to a sophisticated and cultured for benefit of the Katy Ferguson-Spourner Truth or Unmarried Mothers, one of the most worthy of all therapeutic endeavors of this great metropolis. Murray's art is of unusual degrees, approaching a long and perfect perfection, and she notwithstanding a long and tour which carried her to the Pacific Coast, and from has only recently returned, gave of herself most gechis occasion. She sang with tervor and flame, using the wonderful vocal equipment with which she has been in nature, and which she has, by hard and constant approught to a rich and verdant state of cultivation.

Many frequenters of the theatre remember with pleasure the late Aida Overton *Walker*, and there is often heard the wish expressed that there might appear a successor qualified to wear the Aida Overton mantle. It struck me Saturday that Elise Bennett comes nearer that idealistic standard than any young disease I have seen in recent days. And this it notwithstanding that I have in mind the notable successes recently attained by other young artists of the race
Elise Beinig with her talent, charm, grace and heart, will win her own place in the estimation of the amusement loving public, and that she is already on the road to that popularity was shown by the hearts greeting given her by the audience on her first appearance Saturday afternoon.

A NOTABLE RECITAL MARKED APPEARANCE OF COHEN AND HARRISON
Important and pressing duties presented me from hearing the joint recital at Grace Congregational Church on Sunday afternoon, March 22, of Charles Cecil Colen, pianist, and Frank Goodall Harrison, baritone. But from all sources have come such unanimous and splendid commendation of the work of these young artists that I am impelled to break away from a firmly established custom and make commentation on a recital at which I was not personally present.
Mr Cohen a graduate of Oberlin and Pisk, is at present a member of the faculty in the Howard University Conservations of Music, Washington. This was his New York City premiere, and he came heralded by some nice comments from qualified critics and music lovers. It appears that he measured up to all expectations. Melville Charlton, Mus D A A G A Q than whom there is no one better qualified to judge told me that Mr Cohen's playing displayed musical clarity and fluency, that he has technical development that enables him to master the most difficult passages with case, that his pedal work is characterized by use, not abuse, and that he possesses a cultural attainment which gives dignity and impressiveness to his interpretations.
In the same measure has the gongment on the singing of Mr. Harrison. His voice is described as a lyrical baritone, colorful and charged with emotion. He is a graduate on the Howard Conservatory, and in New York has studied with Oscar Saenger and Munro Whitney. He has been singing in concert and performance with fine success, and is looked upon by those who have heard him as one of the most promising singers of the day. The accompaniments were played by Bocatre Lewis, formerly on the Howard family, and now studying in New York City with Percy Graninger. She showed taste and 'temperamental' understanding in the singing of his accompaniments and wasimbled much in the success of Mr. Harrison's efforts.
Mr Harrison's programmed numbers were Lungi dal caro bene (Second). Why do the nations (Handel) Die manacht (Brahms) / urging (Strauss) The Isle (Rachinannoff) Serenade de Don Juan (Felkowsky) Invocation to love (Gryn Scott) Beauty (Hastone Martin) Oh wasn't that a wide river (Burleigh) and Truth all lagged in from Hamm (Coleridge Eayne) The insistent and appreciative demand.

The cantata was sung on Thursday night, and it represented the peak of the week's festival. Rev.

Mayle, manager; J. E. Stratton, chajman of captain. The work of Dr. Charlton at the organ and of Mr. Dionton at the piano was especially noteworthy. These two distinguished artists were supported splendidly by the singing of the society, under the direction of Miss Mary E. Gardner.

MUSICAL COLUMN
ARTICLE No.1 The Modern Symphonic Jazz Orchestra
BY ELLIOTT J. CARPENTER. The young Composer-Pianist of the Singers and Players Exchange, New York Age Building.
The modern Symphonic Jazz Orchestra, comparing Violin, Banjo, two Cornetts, sometimes the entire Saxophone family, Clarinet, Trombone, Inuba, Piano and Drums.
This orchestra generally comprises from eight to ten musicians or more, and the musicians alternate to different instruments as required of the orchestral developments.
The style of dance music is of the popular trend but the orchestrations develop very often into symphonic structure. There are several numbers which have been selected from certain areas of various operas: Faust, Il Trovators, etc., and set to dance rhythms. Nevin's "Royaly" has been developed, or reduced, into dance music of very high order.
There seems to be something lacking in this particular style of Orchestra among the Negro musicians. Up to the present day there has not been one which has reached the pinnacle, and when I say pinnacle I use the standard such orchestras as Whiteman, Bepson Hickman, lot Smith ete. We have several Negro orchestras of this type, but not one which enjoys national popularity as the above named orchestras. Diagnosing and summarizing the situation I find that in most cases it is the efficiency of leadership that is the drawback. Now let us see if I am right.
Whiteman has a great orchestra Why? The foundation of any orchestra is good musicians, and the attributes of good musicianship are technique (knowing how), and execution (the performance of knowing how) but the success of the organ

THE ADVANCE IN RADIO BROADCASTING
Whenever I hear anyone speak of the advance of the art of broadcasting, I can not help but think of the vast difference in the manner in which programs were arranged when broadcasting was in its infancy as compared with the present presentations.
The present day radio lan would be surprised, if he could only be taken back three or four years ago, the great difference in the programs which were broadcasted then and those of today. It is truly remarkable what a change three years has wrought in the field of radio. I don't think the radio audience would tolerate the broadcasting of phonograph records now, but that was what a large part of the programs consisted of a few years ago.
The stations now have their programs mapped out weeks in advance. How different this is from the old method of arranging programs, when, if an artist failed, to apper, the announcer would read a few selections from a book of poems, or would play a phonograph record or two to "kill time" while waiting for the next feature to be "put on the air". Now, should an artist fail to appear, the announcer does not have to rack his brain to think of what to do so that his schedule will not be thrown off. In most cases, the announcers themselves are skilled artists and are perfectly capable of entertaining the radio audience. In any case, allowances are made for emergencies and provision made to take care of them. The failure of an artist to appear does not in the least delay the program. Everything is run according to schedule
Before an artist appears before the microphone, he generally goes to rehearsal. You might be surprised to learn that some of our best known artists have to rehearse before they "appear on the air". This is done to that the artist will become familiar with what has to be done in order that the best results will be obtained. While the artist is rehearsing, the announcer and the operators are checking up on the results. Should the microphone be too near the speaker or instrument, it is moved back a little and note made of the results. Thus, when the tune comes for the artist to appear, he is familiarized
tration depends on its development by the conductor who naturally must be imbued by the attributes of Good Musicianship Machinery for a specific engine can be moulded from the best steel, put out by the finest manufacturers, but unless the inventor or a capable mechanic is there to assemble the parts correctly, the engine is liable to improper functioning. Thus, Whiteman's Orchestra is great because of Whiteman's ability.

Orangeburg, S. C. — The Claflin University Music Department, consisting of the male and female quartets and the students' orchestra under instructions of Mrs G M Randolph, pianist, and Mrs M Coprich, violinist, gave a concert at the Bethel M F Church of Charleston, S C on March 20, 1925. It was given for the benefit of the Charleston local Alumni Association. The company was introduced by Dr Burroughs, president of the Charleston local Alumni Association Just before the concluding numbers, Dr I B Randolph, president of Claflin University, Orangeburg, S C, was called upon to say a few words. His speech centered around the successful graduates of Claflin who are reading in Charleston H Pearson, dean of Claflin University, smoke of scholarship funds.

ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
TESTING TRANSFORMED
Harry Williams—How may I test my audio-frequency transformed to see it is burned out or not?
Answer: The transformed may easily be tested by connecting a dry cell and a pair of phones in series with the winding. One tip of the phones is connected to one side of the battery. The other side of the battery is connected to one side of the secondary. The remaining phone is connected to the other side of the secondary. When this last connection is made, a clicking should be heard in the phones. If the clickin is heard, then the secondary is all right. The primary of the transformer is tested in the same manner, and if a clicking is heard, that too is all right and the transformer is not burned out. Should a clickin be heard in either of the winding or in both, then the transformer is burned out

This should be rubbed across the panel in straight, steady strokes until every part of the panel seems to have a dull grained appearance. The panel should now be rubbed with oil. In order that too much oil might not be used, it is best to use an oily rag. Just a word precaution. Do not use grained sandpaper or emery cloth will have a scratched panel if y

Newark, N. J.
Newark, N.J.—Rev. L. J. Ellerson, pastor of the 13th Institution Prebystrian Church, preached a soul stirring sermon on Sunday morning on The Ultimate Evangelist' taking at a text, John 12:32. "And I, if I be lifted from the earth, will draw all men unto myself." Dr. Ellerson showed that this utterance of Jesus was either a prophecy or, a pathetic plea that He might have a chance, with ment that if after two thousand years of Christianity, men had not been drawn to Christ, it was because Jesus not been properly 'lifted up' by him whom He is depending to do the work of presenting His cause to a lover of Jesus all the centuries had not had a fair chance. The sermon was a strong and comprehensive indictment of the professed followers of Jesus, for stolthfulness and disinterest in carrying on the Master's well planned program of active service in evangelism.
Rev. H. L. McCrorey jr., occupied the pulpit at the evening service and the audience enjoyed another rare treat in the discourse delivered by this excellent young gospel preacher. His sermon was on "Jesus As The Good Shepherd": Dr. Ellerson has announced the closing sermon of the week, the next Sunday the 29th. The specific subject will be "Bearing, Witness."

Assemblyman Billone's BILL
For New Municipal Courts
Passes The State Assembly
Albany, N. Y. Bill number 217,
introduced by Assemblyman Fope B.
Billions of the 21 A. D. of New York
City, was one of the Republican
measures to pass the State Assembly
here on Tuesday, March 24.
This bill is to amend the New York
City municipal court code in relation
to change of boundaries of the Seventh
District and to provide for additional justices for this district.
Should this bill become a law, and
it is very likely that it will, the way
will be opened for the appointment
of a Negro as a Municipal Court
Justice for the Harlem District.
"On the same afternoon the bill introduced by Assemblyman Billips to amend the Benevolent Orders Law of the state go as to, prevent discrimination against colored organizations was reported from the Rules Committee, to which it had been referred. A vote will be taken on it on Friday, March 27."
By a vote of 88 to 52 the Assembly, passed a bill of Pope B. Billips, Republican, Negro member from New York, which seeks to change the boundaries o the Seventh Municipal Court District in Manhattan, adding a tenth district and providing for three additional judges.
"I wish to dwell upon the color line," said Louis A. Cuvillier, Democrat, of New York, debating the bill, "but if this bill was to become a law it would be impossible to elect a white man judge in that district."
Assemblyman Billips denied Mr. Cuvillier's statement, but admitted that the purpose of the bill was to permit a Negro to be elected judge.

"Y" Cafeteria Is "Homey Center of Social Activity; New Radio Great Addition
The Y. W. C. A., building is a busy place these days and, particularly, these nights. To see things in full swing—clubs, classes, meetings—is to be left with no doubt at all that the Young Women's Christian Association fills a very real need in this community. Things start up pretty briskly even before five in the morning, and the dinner. And speaking of the cafeteria, it grows in popularity. Many people have come to know that here they find home cooked food, prepared from the materials obtainable, at reasonable prices, then, too, the cafeteria is such a pleasant, "honey" place. From five to eight—the dinner hour—groups of friends, enjoying a social hour as well as food. Then, too, the cafeteria on hour is popular too, from eleventh to two, and breakfast brings up a close third from seventh to nine.
Leaving the cafeteria, (as, for instance, on Friday night, March 20), we meet an air of festivity on the first floor due largely to our latest cause for rejoicing—a beautiful radio! This radio came as a great surprise and a most highly appreciated one, from the New York Lodge No. 1 of the B. P. O. of Elks. The first day the radio was installed it found use—at the Membership Social in charge of the March club. The party was delightful; there were favors and decorations galore—all green and white, as was also the ice cream. Miss Loretta Day of Brooklyn furnished some of the decorations. Paks, chairman of the Social Committee, and the other members of the Leaders' Recreation Course, conducted hilarious games and stunts. Everybody had a screamingly good time! Among the hostesses were Mines, Griffin, Ridley, Windley, Johnson, Porcher Williams, Scott, Alfred Smith, Kellar and Thomas Smith and Miss Lillie Bolden.
Spring is here! If you want a new hat, some new drapes or slip covers for your house or a fresh lampshade, we can help you! Just join the new class in millinery, the Interior Decorating class, or the class in Lamp-shade makeup. The last two meet on Thursday nights, and the first on Fridays. All of the fees are very low.

Drive To Raise Quota Of $50,000 From New York For Hampton-Tuskegee Fund
Drive To Raise Quota Of $50,000 From New York For Hampton-Tuskegee Fund
---
The drive to raise $50,000 among Negroes of Greater New York as their quota of the Hampton-Tuskegee Endowment Fund of $8,000,000, was thus enthusiastically launched Friday evening, March 20, at the Young Women's Christian Association, 179 West 132th Street. Quite a number responded to appeals to subscribe and enroll as workers.
Among those to speak in the interest of the campaign were the Rev A Clayton Powell the Rev A C Garner, Harry H Pace J O Thomas, Mrs Cecelia C Saunders, Miss Rikke Days, C H Williams, representing Hampton Institute, Mrs W C Matthews, A B Pikhungan, Dr P Roberts and Fred R Moore.
The speakers emphasized the importance of colored people playing their part in the campaign, declaring no matter the form of the campaign could be given the white fraternity of the race giving generous support, than to know members of the race are contributing to a big, constructive movement which means much to Negro education in general.
Watt Terry, the well known real estate operator, is chairman of the local committee, and Mrs Ruth Logan Roberts is secretary Mrs W W Matthews of Boston, is voluntary worker in charge of headquarters at the W W C A. The fund will be equally divided between the two schools, enabling them to improve the character of their activities and add work of collegiate grade, and their curricular date. $2,000 has been appropriated recently includes John D Rockefeller's recent million dollar gift. To qualify for Mr George Eastman's conditional pledge of $2,000,000 additional, the remaining amount must be raised by December 31, 1925.
Editor Moore Tells Brooklyn Folks About Conditions In Harlem
The trustees of Siloam Presbyterian Church, Lafayette avenue, Brooklyn, the Rev. George Shippen Stark, pastor, held a special pew rally service: on Sunday afternoon, March 22, at 4:30 o'clock, with an address by Fred R. Moore editor of The New York Age, on conditions in Harlem. A goodized audience was present and listened for forty-five minutes to a vivid description of the maner in which certain elements have obtained a cofound in Harlem, exploiting the people of that community to their costly degradation and loss, spiritually morally and financially.
Mr. Moore emphasized the fact that Harrell is probably the best housed Negro community in the world, with a splendid cultural development, but he declared 'that various vicious agencies' propelled especially by Jewish and Italian promoters, gave come into the heart of the church, both open and camouflaged, gambling dives, "numbers" banking places, and other similar activities, and have honeycomb the community with opportunities for the satisfying of the baser appetites and mutilations of the people.
The speaker told of his work for several years past in using the columns of The Age to expose and remedy these conditions, and made an appeal to the community to help in the particular to help in eliminating these degrading and debasing factors from the community life.
A special musical program was rendered under direction of Lucien H. White, organist-director of the church choir. The special artists for the afternoon were Mrs Coralie Gary, Illidge, contralto, and Miss Marguerite Kathleen Mays, pianist both the Dammery International Music Art, New York City; Percy Calegui, tenor, and the church choir. Jerome B. Lorling, for the trustees, served as master of ceremonies.
Mrs. Illidge, whose voice is of velvety sweetness, with considerable depth and color, sang "O rest in the Lord" by Mendelssohn, with "Gray Days" by Johnson, with "Gray Days" by Shirley, and her ligature with the delightful fullness of her voice. Her accompanied were played by T. H. White
Miss Kennerly, who comes from Washington, it is said, has been referred to as one of the most accomplished of the young pianists studying at the Damrosch Institute. Those, who heard her play Sunday afternoon are willing to subscribe to the opinion that the reference is well deserved. She gave three numbers in two groups. Her first offering was the Mendelssohn Prelude in E minor which was played with a delicate futeny that brought out all of the beauty of the haunting melody which the great master used as his theme. Her technical equipment was simply tested in the dismal difficulties of Moskowski's Etmcelles, and in the dainty effectiveness of McDowell's Shadow Dance. Gallage, sang Eugene Coulet's heartfelt song "Tenor's "Crossing The Bar" with Mr White at the piano, and the church choir sang two anthems. The opening number was Harry Rowe Shelley's "The King of Love my Shepherd is," and the efforty was "Fear Not, O Land" with Rogers.
The invocation was offered by the pastor, Rev. Mr. Stark, who also spoke in thebose of the program. A liberal contribution was given towards the new rally

Dr. Tyler, the pastors delivered a very inspiring message, to the usual large Sunday morning gathering He selected as his text St Matthew 7:13 and 14 verses "Enter ye in at the straight gate, far wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction and may there be which the great. He was straight the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it". Dr Tyler made mention of the fact that if the Bible is read attentively and thoughtfully first man is brought fact to face with a knowledge of his value. Secondly-man stands in urgent danger of being lost. Therefore it is necessary to geek selection Christ's plan of redemption is the means whereby man may lay hold on the kingdom of God.
At the evening service the Willing Workers Club of Salem and Abyssinia Churches, New York, and Concord and Antioch Baptist, Brooklyn visited with the Willing Workers Club of Bridge Street. A short program was rendered by members of Bridge Street Church and the pastor delivered an interesting address to this splendid group of women. His discourse was limited to the glorification of "Woman". This spirit of fraternity among the churches seems to be one of the best proofs of the onward march of the spirit of Christianity. Wednesday of last week, Dr. and Mrs. Tyler tendered their annual reception to the Junior Choir. The young people spent an enjoyable evening.
On Sunday, March 29 at 3 p.m., a meeting will be held in the church under the auspices of the deaconesses board. You will have an opportunity to hear Mrs. Fruxon, the evangelist and her daughter.
