Cannon Is Seriously Hurt By Fall From Bus Enroute Home Jersey City, N.J. J-Dr George C. Cannon, of 354 Paca street, one of the city's leading physicians, chairman of Lincoln University Alumni Association, and recent delegate at large from New Jersey to the Republican National Convention, was seriously injured by falling from a bus. Dr Cannon was returning from a trip to Philadelphia and the manner of his meeting with the accident is not known. He was found in a helpless condition, laying by the roadside, by a passerby, who summoned help and took the doctor to his Pacific street home, where Mrs Cannon summoned Dr Dickenson to attend him. LAHERT - It was learned, when Dr Cannon regained consciousness, that when he was alighting from the bus on which he had been riding, enroute home, on Saturday, the chauffeur started the machine before the passenger had gotten off, and Dr Cannon was thrown into force as he was rendered unconscious. The bus proceeded without the driver paying any attention to the accident. It is not known how long Dr Cannon lay on the street. He was returning from attendance at the Lincoln University alumni banquet to the university athletes held in Philadelphia on Thursday, March 20. His condition is serious. The doctor and a trained nurse are in attendance and visitors are barred. Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones Dinner Guest In London Cable advances from London, England, tell of a Government dinner given Thursday evening, March 26, in honor of Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, educational director of the Phelps-Stokes Fund, at Lancaster House, in recognition of the cooperation of the United States in sending a commission to Africa to assist in formulating plans to meet the educational needs of natives. W. G. A. Ormsby Gore, parliamentary Under-Secretary for the colonies, presided. He expressed the British Government's gratitude for the valuable work done by the Phelps-Stokes Foundation, and the hope that the cooperation between America and Britain relative to matters pertaining to education in Africa would be maintained in the future. In reply to the kindly sentiments expressed by Great Britain Under-Secretary for the colonies, Dr. Jones dwelt on the potential benefits of education for native Africans and the need of training teachers, doctors and nurses. Dr. Jones is finishing his report of the East African Commission's visit to East Africa, which he has been writing for several months. New Judgeships In Harlem District Provided In Bill Billups Bill, Making New Court District, Goes To Mayor And Gov. COLORED JUDGE POSSIBLE Many Candidates Are Ready To Shy Their Hats In Ring For The Honor As told in last week's issue of The New York Age, House Bill No 717, Int. 699, introduced by Assemblyman Pope B. Billups of the 21st D. New York City, was passed by the Senate in its closing hours, after having passed the Assembly on March 24, by a vote of 88 to 52. This bill provides for a redistricting of the 2th Municipal Court-District of the City of New York, which district includes the Harlem section, and the addition of additional justices for this district. The Billups bill amends the New York City Municipal Court, Code by changing boundaries of the 7th District, providing for an additional district in the Northeast of Manhattan, and for additional justices in said districts. The present 7th District is located in the territory bounded by 110th street on the South, Fifth avenue and Harlem River on the East, 155th street on the North, and Edgcembore, St. Nicholas and Fifth avenue on the West. The municipal district created by the Billups' bill is to be known as the 10th, and its boundaries are located west of Fifth avenue, leaving the 7th District almost entirely in the Harlem section. To Elect New Justices Two new justices are to be elected in the 7th District at the November elections of 1925, for a full term of ten years, with an additional justice elected to fill the vacancy created in the 10th District, and the bill further provides that vacancy caused by this redistricting is to be filled by appointment prior to January 1, 1926, when the changes in boundaries, and the new district are to become operative. The bill now goes to Mayor John Hylan of New York City for his approval or disapproval, after which it is to be returned to Governor Al Smith for his signature. It is believed that both officials will act favorably upon the measure. In the meantime, under the bill, a colored judge is practically assured, as the 7th District will be preponderantly colored. And already the most conspicuous of the most conspicuous are Louis A. Lavelle, who claims to have been the pioneer in Harlem for securing electric office for Negroes, and who is already actively campaigning for the nomination, former Assemblyman John Cifford Hawkins a strong Republican, and Assemblyman Billups himself, who is said to be not averse to exchanging the toga of Representative for the entire of a Judge And there are scores of others, it is reported that are firmly convinced in the chair which enthrones the judicial dams than any of their fellow lawyers, and who are ambitious ofounding out their legal careers by winning a judge's title. Maid To Wealthy Doctor's Wife Gets $10,000 Legacy According to the will of the late Mrs Emily de Bermingham, wife of the wealthy Dr Jose de Bermingham of 53 West 74th street, who died on March 15 Pauline Lee of 230 West 142nd street will receive a legacy of $10,000. Miss Lee has been the personal servant and maid of Mrs de Bermingham for a number of years. A reporter of The Age inquired at the West 142nd street address but could not get no information about Miss Lee. However it was learned from Ermak 1 Walderley attorney for the late Mrs de Bermingham, that Miss Lee is now in the South with relatives. The lawyer said the estate had not been sold and it might be a year before Miss Lee received the leagey. He said further that Miss Lee lived at the home of her late employer She formerly had a room with a friend in the West 142nd street address. Brisbane Tells Story Of "Numbers" Charge Against Smith and Wife White Officers Acted Upon Complaint Of A Colored Woman Who Played Patrolman Thomas Brisbate of the 16th Recipient, on West 135th street, explained to a reporter of The New York Age how he happened to bring about the raiding of the store of B. A. Smith, newdealer, 55 West 12nd street, whose wife was arrested for alleged receiving of numbers, aling Officer Brassain explained that he only performed his duty as an officer, by causing the investigation of a complaint made against Smith by a 'woman who came to him while he was on duty and reported to him that she had been playing the "number," with B. A. Smith, for some considerable time and at last has succeeded in picking the winning number, and had hit Smith likely, and that he failed to pay her the winnings and made an excuse. As no "numbers" slips were found on the woman, Officer Britiane could not arrest her for playing policy but he did go near the store of Smith-where he observed several persons comning out of the store at various tittles putting slips of paper into their pockets. He walked away and happened to meet two Special Service men from downtown and reported to them the women's complaint. The two white officers went at once for the store where they found ammunition put in Mr. Smith's apartment. Britiane laughed at the idea of him knowing the winning number on the day before it came out, and said if he could pick the winning number a day ahead he would not have to wear a blue coat and brass buttons and pound the pavements morning, noon and night in all sorts of weather. The case had a hearing in the Washington Heights court Monday and was adjourned until Friday, April 3. In the meantime Mrs. Smith is out under a $500 bill and Officer Britiane is stepping up to state the the Inspector nor any official of the Police Department has questioned him as to the report that he played numbers.

When officials boarded the vessel they found it empty of all cargo but coal and passengers on a joyride. The officers of the ship declared the voyage of the Goethals has been but one lobe after another, as they saw it go into internment in Lamon Bay.

HOPE DAY NURSERY 33 West 133rd St. Stock Salesmen, men and women for Colored Insurance Company or organizing Call for interview, Friday morning Morningide 0728, 2289 Seventh avenue, Mr Schalluan. Leader William Banks-announces his Grand Novelty Ball to be held at Manhattan Casino in the near future. The curtain has been rung down on the first act of the Colored Vaudeville Comedy Club, 2237 Seventh avenue, which came to an abrupt ending Monday night. A notice posted on the door in the vestibule of the club announced that the club has been closed for repairs and will reopen Friday, April 3, under a new policy, and strictly on the membership plan. A assessor who have read the notice to what extent the register of members has to do with registraring a new place which had been remodeled for the specific purpose (or which it had been used only three months Notorious "Rat" Hole An investigator for The New York Age to tried to get some sense out of the notice, and patrons of Harlem's Monte Carlo enlightened him with their impressions, what the place had become a notorious "rat" hole and a worse dive than was pictured in The New York Age in the month of January. The damage which the "rat" did the underground rendezvous for theatrical folks was enough to provoke dissatisfaction among the musicians and entertainers who frequented the place in hopes of getting an engagement when out of work, as well as to spend a few hours in pastime. When the "Comedy Club" first opened up, the movie plan was tried out, but money did not come in sufficient quantity. A Jew had "floated" the enterprise by being instrumental in obtaining the lease, the charter and advancing the necessary money to launch what quickly became the most notorious gamble that Harlem ever dreamed of. Seeing the practical side of the game, the management of the club threw wide open the doors of the club and admitted anyone who desired to enter and gamble, dance or entertain, free of charge. Then the dollars came rolling in, and often the place would remain open all night and up until noon the following day. Tom, Dick and Harry, were all selected. When the promoters pulled out of the hole, financially speaking, and where the season's thoughts turned to spring cleaning, the management of this clumsy under the noses of Harlem housewives cided to act on the opinion of The New York Age and clean up the dump. "Rats" To Be Chased Out The "new policy strictly membership plan" suggests that the "rats" that made the club what it is today are to be chased out and barred in the future, and a membership fee off one dollar, probably three, will be charged for members, who must assure the manager that they are directly identified with the musical or the professional. The new policy does not aim at abolishing gambling, for the "rats" enabled the managers of the club to increase their gambling devices with two billboard tables which are no less contraptions around crap shooters can stand and "read" men and weep. The poker tables may be increased in number and the place converted into a regular gambling house. The new policy is expected to provide more dignified stuff for the promoters of the Colored Vaudeville Comedy Club and bigger wallets for the poker sharks. It is reported that one of the main men in the club was at one time the manager of one of Chicago's most daring gambling houses and is accustomed to taking great chances with civil authorities. The hold and daring way in which the Comedy Club was openly operated during the first three months enabled the polity and spectators. There were sources who visited the place, to get an eyeful, an earful, and sufficient proof and evidence of the "car" that was pulled off their importance to indirect the most influential law breaker. Home Hooch Stills Discovered To Be Menace To Life And Property, And Query Is Put As To Why Landlords Permit The Risks The one thing in Harlem that attracts more curious comment from strangers visiting the neighborhood than any one thing is the sight of men posted in windows of business places, whose sole duty seems to be looking out in the street. On every side—Seventh avenue, Lenox avenue, Eighth and Fifth avenues, and on many of the cross streets—windows are to be seen which are screened from outside view by curtains or coloring of the glass, and one, sometimes two men are in view, perched on high stools, keeping a vigilant lookout up and down the street. It is the sight of these men that Hollywood Drug Store Found To Be Booze Store ampels the visiting stranger to give voice to questions aroused by curiosity. "Why is it that men sit so high up in the windows of many of the houses? What is the reason?" are the first questions asked. Sometimes they add "I see two sometimes, one looking up and one looking down the street." The answer to their curiosity is that these places are Harlem's nontorious hooch joints, in which it is to be procured that stuff the will give one the twitching bring on the leaved look of an alcoholic addict, and frequently makes the indulgent want to fight shimself or anybody else who might be convenient of access. Then comes the inevitable interrogation: "Why do they allow that sort of thing to go on? I never saw anything like it." Raid Reveals Large Store Of Booze And Alcohol Behind False Walls SUPPLIED HOOCH HOUNDS Enough Hooch For Each Joint In Harlem To Secure Its Supply Of Liquor The mystery of the Holywood Drug Store at 447 Luxon avenue was solved by Federal prohibition officers, led by Arthur Van Tan, on Tuesday morning, March 31. For a long time the public had been wondering how this place had managed to exist with so few customers. It was raided by five men from downtown and after false walls, trap doors, etc., had broken down, the place was found to contain a store of whiskey and gram alcohol for making booze in sufficient volume to supply every hooch joint on Luxon avenue. According to neighborhood store-keeper, a four ton truck left a load of merchandise in cans, boxes and barrels at the store on the previous day. As the store is very small—only eight feet wide spectators wondered how so much merchandise could get into so small a place. Nevertheless, all the packages were safely stored out of sight by evening. When the prohibition forces first went into the place they could see nothing amiss, but they had been advised to examine the place care(fully), and in a few minutes they were, themselves, surprised at the quantity of alcohol found about. A man by the name of Arnold is said to the owner of the store, but his clerk only noticed at the time of the only one. The clerk was arrested and the alcohol contested. The officers visited several of the hooch joints further up Luxon avenue, but they had all been tipped off and those who had not closed up were on the lookout for the police. THOMAS BROOKS IS YONKERS' PIONEER NEGRO POLICEMAN Yorkers N.Y. The Negro race in Yorkers is now represented in the civic machinery of Yorkers in the persuasion of Thomas Brooks of 88 Nepperman Terrace who recently won an appointment to the Police Department. It is the first time in the history of Yorkers that a colored man has qualified and been appointed to the police force. Mr. Brooks has set a precedent for citizens and promoting young men who are among fifty of the most prominent in the Police Department and the good citizens of whom he is one, are looking forward to his making an excellent record as a patriot. impels the visiting stranger to give voice to questions aroused by curiosity. "Why is it that men sit so high up in the windows of many of the houses? What is the reason?" are the first questions asked. Sometimes they add "I see two sometimes, one looking up and one looking down the street" to their curiosity is that these places are Harlem's notorious hooch joints, in which is to be procured that stuff that will give one the "twitches," bring on the leary-eyed look of an alcholic addict, and frequently makes the indulger want to fight himself or anybody who might be convenient of accusing him. Then comes the inevitable interrogation: "Why do they allow that sort of thing to go on? I never saw anything like it." More To Be Seen Well, if the visitor makes any sort of a stay in Harlem he is apt to see a good bit more than that. Just a few days are sufficient to afford even the casual stranger many opportunities for coming in contact with the home hooch distilling apprais—the "still" which is operated in the kitchen of one's flat apartment or in the basement of the private home to comment on this condition and to give expression to regard for personal safety Sad this visitor: "I would think it dangerous to operate a still in the home, but I have noticed them in many of the flats in apartment houses where I have visited. It seems to me the people ought to be afraid of explosions, with consequent loss of life and destruction of property. The casualties would be of enormous degree if all of these stills should happen to explode at the moment, will it make the nervous I'm afraid for my safety, but then I'm only here temporarily, and will be gone in a few days. I hope there will be no accidents before I leave." Situation No Secret This visitor is disclosing a situation that is no secret to either law enforcement officials or to the general public. Whiskey stills are scattered throughout the entire Harlem community, and there is hardly a block that has not one or more in operation for "home consumption", if not for general bootlegging purposes. One question has been asked in this connection to which no answer passes yet been given—"What do the passers know about the situation? Why don't the landlords take steps to get rid of these undesirable tenants and thus relieve themselves from the risk of property losses and legal liability One visitor, commenting on the hooch situation, said "We have read of the fight The Age is making on these hooch joints, but we didn't realize it was anything like what we have seen. It surpasses even the vivid descriptions given in The Age's news stories from time to time. And what makes it even more depressing and spoiling of such beautiful and desirable residential thoroughfares as the avenues and streets of Harlem—the most healthy and pleasant part of New York City." U. S. Attorney To Aid This visitor has hit one of theorest spots—the invasion of Seventh avenue, particularly, by the Italian and Jewish hooch hounds, who holdly and ruthlessly pursue their illegalvocation without regard to thewelfare or comfort of the community. In the meantime, thecampaign conducted by the Age is beginningto show results. The new UnitedHoney, honey Buckner, in a personal address with Fred R Moore ofThe Age, declared the purpose ofcomputing in every way rid Harlem of these fearsomepost holes, and expressed an intention toutilize the evidence supplied throughthis paper's investigations to thatend. All of the people who are playing the "numbers" daily are not naturally dump fools or plain suckers, and many of them start into the game as a lark or out of curiosity, with no thought or intention of becoming an addict, or of suffering serious financial distress as a result of going beyond their depth. But it is an inadmissible game—and ever is there held out before the unwary player the alluring hait of the tremendous odds, 600 to 1 if the right number is picked. A one-case play will pay 60, a dime up on the winning combination will bring in the enormous profit of 6000. And there are other influences that operate when the player sickens of the game and wants to quit. As a matter of fact, it has resolved into a problem; "How to stop playing the Numbers?" As soon as a player announces the intention of quitting, news of big wins, whether real or not, are broadcasted around. I'll win. I hope I do anyway. I want to get back what I lost. And as sure as I do hit, I'm quitting for false everybody, and but in my body. But quitting a dime won't get me anywhere if I win. I better keep on playing a quarter—believe I'll make it a half. Then I'll get out of the barrel." And the player goes in deeper than ever instead of quitting. "Some of the players have found out that they can't trust their money to any and every collector that comes along. One of them said the other day: 'The bulls are getting so busy that I got to be careful. It is a dangerous business, now, since they Baiting The Player "Tom Jones had a dream the other night and his dead mother came and told him to hold on to '617!' Well, sir, Tom got up the next morning and went right out and put a $5 bill on that number, and—well, you know what number came out Friday. It was '617', wasn't it? And didn't I see that banker count him out $2,700 in cash? "Yes, sir, I stood right there. The banker had gone to the bank and got a suit case full of money. And when Tom came in, the banker started counting out the dough—first, he counted $1 bills till they stacked up; then came $5's, $10's, $20's and $50's until the man got tired; then he pulled a big bunch of centuries and boy, I never seen so many $100 bills in a banker alone, and he was kept busy for two hours paying out to the 5, 10, 15 and 25 cents players. Of course, a lot of them were pikers who had only a jitney on the play, and so they only got $27. Eh? Oh, the $3 off is the 10 per cent takeoff that does the running back and forth from player to banker. That's why Tom's pile was $2700. The collector got $300 for his bit. "Just Keep On-Playing". "There was no sign of welcoming on part of that banker, either. He just paid and smiled. When he paid Tom, he just said, 'Here's your winnings, boy; all I ask is that YOU KEEP ON PLAYING' Well, it just doesn't seem natural. Tom would put cold after hitting the bank for that day. Why, he apt to have another dream, most any night? All of this is fed to the prospective quitter as medicine to cure "cold feet," and it is a player with unusual power of determination and self-will who is able to withstand the insidious intimation that "Suppose you do quit, why that number you been playing is just as apt as to roll around today." And then the poor tip of his nose, swallows the suggestion, and agrees to try it "Just once more." And if the morrow brings reflection and a renewal of the intention to stop, the collector has just earned a series of winnings made by other players on another than his own banker—mustn't hit the same one too often, for bankers have a way of disappearing if hit too hard—and Bill won $300. Mary Jones—you know her don't you?—just showed me a dollar and $200. On yesterday, well, you are a little bit in the air, its true, hut Lord, one such hit and way ahead of the game. If you can't play two bites on that number, hit it for a dune, that'll give you $60. You could use that, couldn't you?" And so the victim falls into the slough once more, thinking: "Maybe List of Hooch Joints I'll win. I hope I do anyway. I want to get back what I lost. And sure as I do hit it I'm quitting for fair. I owe 'everybody, and am behind in my rent. But paying a dime won't get me anywhere if I win. I'd better keep on playing a quarter. I won't get out of the barrel." And the player goes in deeper than ever instead of quitting. "Some of the players have found out that they can't trust their money to any and every collector that comes along. One of them said the other day: 'The bulls are getting so busy that I got to be careful. It is a dangerous business, now, since they are so busy with their money and the banker but the player, well. But at that, if they got us all it would be better for me, because I guess they'd stop. You know this thing is like a fever. You start out careless like, just to sport a little for the fun of it, and then first thing you know you are wrapped up in trying to beat the darned game. You know all the time you are not going to do anything, and then that do. You keep on parting with your money until you can't pay for even the necessary things you need. "Well, guess it would be better for me to give my money to my-wife; she don't play the 'numbers'; then I can possibly pay my rent and meet the installments on my furniture. Maybe if we all would stop, even for some, some of these bankers would have out of business and we wouldn't be regarded, as 'so easy'. Let's quit!" In the meantime, the banker, even after he has paid out to the chance winners the $3,000, $300, $250, and numerous $60 and $30 hits, still has enough left to purchase" Hartman apartment houses, either at private sale or auction, and to ride around in the city, like Jeffrey rows, Lincoln, McFarlands, he could ride around in a Rolls Royce if he wanted to.

But both none are engaged in the district in this week's survey of business activities. The longhoreman is seen coming home with his gyeralle, hook, and canvas gloves, his wife is seen pushing her baby, buggy, and the milk yagon is seen on the streets in the wee small hours, which causes one to think about what race sells the milk for the longhoreman who sells his baby, buggy, taking gloves,巾 and hook, and who sells his wife the baby buggy. The travelling public is seen with traveling bags and suit cases; the salamander with his brief case; the musician with his saxophone; trombone or trap drums; the little boy with his violin, and the small girl with her music case and music books; the bicycle that the messenger boy does; the tennis rackets and the fits which the lover purchase and the phantoms who have no interest in the race other than to hold our patronage. Colored women are doing business in Harlem so successfully, and new enterprises are springing up so rapidly under the supervision of our energetic women, that some people are beginning to remark the hard work years will be the colored woman will be the captain of industry in Harlem.

Foreign Born Citizens' Alliance Plan Drive To Naturalize Its Members The Foreign Born Citizens' Alliance, Inc., is making a big "drive" to arouse the large foreign-born element in the community to a sense of its civic duty. Concerted plans have been laid to make 500 new citizens by June 30 next. Commenting on the work of the Alliance for the past years, President R.E. McCormack says: "We have been instrumental in making upward of 1200 new citizens since 1919 without aid of any kind from any source, State or otherwise. With intelligent and wholehearted cooperation it is a simple, and easy matter for us, to assist 500 more men and women of the 15,000 or more foreign born in the 13th, 19th and 21st Assemblies Districts to become citizens. "A patriotic and public-spirited citizens has placed at the disposal of the Alliance a large sum of money to assist in this work, which can be of direct, fasting and inimitable value to the community, city and States. On being questioned as to whether these 500 prospective citizens would be Republicans or Tammany Hall Democrats C Jackman, secretary of the Alliance, replied that it made little or no difference to the Alliance whether they were Republicans or Democrats, Wets or Drys, "Our first and last arms, and always will be, to make foreign-born colored men and women good citizens" young men who own the shop, Messrs. Thom and Harris, have been working other ways for a long time have now settled down in their place of business Along the other avenues in Harlem, in the side streets, and in some out of the way places, are enterprises of various characters that are being operated by old and young, experienced business people and beginners, all playing an active part in the development of the race, and each one striving to give better service than the other races, but the inside story of their struggles in business adventures read like gripping romances. TRADE PORO MARK AN ASSURANCE OF SATISFACTION The A. M. B. Bethel Church of New Rockefeller was called up by the B. M. Dutton, just a bit of integrating history. The church, was started twenty-five years ago and went from house to house until a meeting place was secured at River street, where it remained until Reut. Dutton was assigned to the charge for one year. He served for a year, and was away for a year, then came back and moved the church, with a membership of fifteen, to another place at 11 Railroad avenue where it remained until the year 1922. Then a movement was started to purchase a site for the church; which was 100 ft. by 98 ft. costing $5,000. A friend of the church, widow was then living in Long Island, promised Rev. Dutton that he would erect a church building if the pastor, Rev. Dutton, would arrange to pay for the ground; the advantage of the offer, the work on a new church began, but a short time afterward, the gentleman from Long Island died, living the burden of building on the shoulders of Rev. Dutton. In the meantime the A. M. E. Conference had been invited to hold their annual conference in New Rochelle. It was then the month of March and the conference was to meet in May. With only three months to come the conference was to be held with the assistance of one of the trustees, obtained a loan of $10,000. The membership was only thirty, but affairs were carried out successfully. Last year Rev. Dution was called to St. John's A. M. E. Church at New York, and when he left, Bethel' church held $1,000 for him. $1,000 for $7,500. Much of the money he had taken out of his own pockets. The new church is well worth $18,000. Judge Mullen Grants An Appeal To Officer Hill Judge Mullen Grants An Appeal To Officer Hill Policeman Walter J. Hill of the 10th Precinct, who was recently convicted in the Court of General Session before Judge Tally, has been granted a certificate of reasonable doubt by Justice Mullan, who ruled that the judge who presided at Hill's trial may have been in error in allowing the District Attorney to question witnesses about a crime said to have been committed by Hill before he became a policeman. Hill will be admitted to bail pending his trial. Hill was convicted on a charge of beating king J. Roulston and Louis J. Riley, two white newspaper distributors, whose car came near to colliding with Hill's car, one night last winter. After the near accident the two white men failed to stop until they had been chased and run down by policeman Hill. Two other white policemen were involved in the alleged beating of the newspaper disgruntled officer for trial. Both of the white men were acquitted. Buffalo Boy Crushed To Death By One-Man Car Buffalo, N. Y—When little George Griffin of 17 Minor street was caught and crushed to death an eastbound one-man troller car on Williams street, Medical Examiner Charles E. Long refused to issue certificate for an accidental death declaring; "I do not see how the death can be classed as accidental when a one-man car is involved. One man cannot adequately handle a car alone." Little George was then son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Griffin. He was, dragged more than a hundred feet by the car.

Urges Organized Effort To Protect Housewife One of the outstanding needs of Harlem is a Housewives League. We have organizations of the girls only a character, but it seems the women of community have overlooked this special field in vital need of cultivation. The people of this locality are enriching hundreds of white trades allowing them a monopoly of a large part of the business of this sector does not always follow that tradesman rejoys that consideration lay and square dealing. It is then up to the housewife to take action for protection. It is usually the woman of the family who spends the pennies for the visions of her household in the way of foodstuffs, etc., and the most pennies are spent in the particular neighborhood of the housewife. Sources of course, order, from the large stores downtown or in other localities where they feel assured of fair prices, accurate weights, fresh goods, and courteous attention. The criticism I have heard most frequently leveled at shops in this city is that they are dirty, unattractive, with inferior goods, high prices, and frequently inattentive or too familiar, clerks. The individual protest of a woman makes very little, if any impression on the proprietor of a store. He will perhaps tell her to go elsewhere she is suited. However, let there be a united protest from a group of women and the shopkeeper feels that he will loisa trade; you will find the shopkeeper will protest respectful consideration. He isn't in business for his health. White women have found this out long ago, and organized for their preservation. Colored women, more in need of protection since their penniles are fewer and harder to get, still allow themselves to be cheated, and imposed upon. Clerks in all of these stores should be made to understand that there is a difference between familiarity and courtesy. That we demand the respect given any other race of women, and that we intend to have just weights, fair pans and fresh goods. If we don't protect our own interests we can't expect others to do it.

Food Economies What To Buy The Bureau of Public Health Education gives us the following permanent comment: Before going out to market make up your mind what you need. Buy all you need for the day. Don't run out and buy before every meal. Big sure to get food that gives the most strength for the least money. Be sure also to see what left over are. Use the ice box and plan to use these. Left over meat can be used for thickening Spaghetti. Mind can be made from left-over meat combined with some fresh vegetables. Plain, substantial wholesome meals well prepared and properly served, will do the most good. You don't need a great variety of foods. Buy the cheap cuts-of-meat, such as thick, Brisket. Flank These meats are tough, but by long, slow cooking they become tender and give as much strength and satisfaction as the higher rated cuts. Peas, beans, fish and cheese give the same nourishment to the body as meat and at least cyst. You save money by buying in quantities. Flour, sugar, cereals, cocoa, butter, can be bought cheaper in quantities.

Brooklyn Republican Leader Demonstrates the Wilkian Domination Lefton, Executive Member, 5th A.D., Quits Party, Charging Segregation Walter R. Hofton of 764 Herkimer street, executive member, of the, 5th Assembly district, Colored Republican Club, has been a bombshell in to-party tanks in his office in renouncing, Republicanism and lying himself, with the Democrat, all lying as a reason for his action, all hoping to further stomach the leadership of George E. Wibecan, who has been accorded that position by the party leaders in King's County. Lofton makes his action known in a letter to former State Senator Charles C. Lockwood, now chairman of the King's County Republican Committee, in which he charges, that Wibecan is encouraging segregation of the Negro, through his action in planning to have a membership contribution to the colored or gratiation instead of through the regular District, Committie. This letter Lofton calls attention to Wibecan as having gone on record in bitter opposition, to race discrimination and segregation. Arthur Q. Martin of the 10th A.D., Wm. H. McFarland of the 17th, John H. Smith, founder of the H. H. Garnett* Club, Mrs. M. C. Lawton, president of the Empire State Federation of Women's Clubs, and a number of other strong and influential Negro-political leaders in the Republican party, are named by Lofton as refusing to rezone the leadership of Wibecan. At a meeting of the Colored Republi-cation organization of King's Co. held on March 18, Lofton's strenuous objections to Wibecan's rulings led to Lofton being ejected from the meeting. Chairman Lockwood was thanked for the friendship he had shown Lofton, and the latter expressed the opinion that more leaders of the Lockwood type would make it harder for the Democrats in Kings Co. Lofton declared that Wijecean's leadership, would be destructive to the Republican party, and that, with a fair treatment accorded tile Negro by the Democrats, two years more would see the majority of the colored vote in the county affiliated with the Democrat party. The unusual window displays of the Big Three,—the Rita Dress Shop Hazel's Jewelry and the Cecil Millinery, at 2233 75 Seventh avenue; attracted such a big crowd at the opening of their Easter sale, Saturday, March 28, that it looked for a while as though reserves would have to be called out to prevent the windows from being broken. The entire building, which is owned by Mme. Cecile DeSilva, is decorated with flags and electric lights, and there are various colored lights in the window of her shop, but the chic dresses are not displayed in the display of living models in the window of the Rita Dress Shop wearing the latest style dresses and hats. Sometimes these models were a wrist watch or bracelet from the Hazel Jewelry store next door. Most of the models were well known and popular Harlem girls and a crowd blocked the sidewalk watching the display. Durham, N. G. — The directors of the Bankers' Fire Insurance Company at a meeting held in the home office here on December 1, 1924, of $4,000 for each share of stock, in record, December 1, 1924, to the stock-holders and specified that the date of payment for this dividend be May 5, 1925. Another step taken by the board, which is reared at further indicating the healthy condition of the company, was the authorization of the issuance of policies on automobiles, covering fire and theft only. Following this move, of course, the company issued an opinion that inasmuch as this has proven a paying line for other fire insurance company they believe it will be a paying line for Banker' Fire. Disclosures on the condition of the company made in its annual statement for the close of the year as of December 31, 2019, prove that it is steadily assuming, prominence as another of the race's strongest and most dependable business concerns. This statement, which is printed in another column of this paper, shows that since being chartered in 1920, and beginning the actual underwriting of fire risks about 12 months later, Bankers' Fire Insurance Company has enjoyed a substantial growth both in business expansion and stability of assets. Substantial Increase Shown Last year marked an increase in assets ($12,650.07; in premiums written $12,650.07; in premiums in force $19,772.55; and in unearned premium reserve $17,978.76. The total insurance in force at the end of the year amounted to nearly ten and a half million dollars, with premiums in force to the extent of $160-946.78. The company has paid in losses since organization $102,587.56. The officers of the company are W. G. Pearson, president; C. C. Spaulding, first vice president; A. J. Strong, of Norfolk, second vice president; J. M. Avery, treasurer; W. Gomez, secretary-manager; M. A. Goinz, assistant secretary; L. W. Wilhoite, auditor; R. N. Harris, managing underwriter; H. W. Hill, special representative. With the addition of Mr. J. C. Scarborough, these men also compose the Executive Committee. The directors include the above named officers and E. W. Smith, Winston-Salem; J. S. Thompson, Durham; J. A. Tinsley, Weldon; E. R. Merick, Durham; B. L. Jordan, Richmond: John E. Nail, New York; Ira T. Bryant, Nashville; B. L. McDougall, Durham; G. A.

Scotia Chapter-Notes The regular monthly meeting of the Scocia_Chapter was held at the home of Mrs. Carrie Branch, 71 Englewood avenue, Englewood, N. J., Sunday, May 26, 2015. Rev. Chisholm of Leonia, N. J., gave a very interesting address. Mrs Ionia Topping sang several songs in her usual sweet way. The hostess served a very appetizing repast, and the ladies left to meet with Brooklyn, N. Y., Sunday, April 26, 1925. The Chapter is proud of the honor of leaving one of their number to head the list of the most famous Negro women educators of America, in the person of Mrs Mary Bethune. She was chosen to sit for a painting to be on exhibit at the 153th Street Library. We hope all our students will be Mrs. Wintz president; Mrs. Pressly, Secretary Mrs. Moultrie, treasurer; Mrs V.

Shows Remarkable Progress Atlanta, GA—Two billions of dollars is the present estimated wealth of Negroes in the United States, according to a recent survey made for the Research Section of the American Sociological Society by Moinero N. Work of Tuskegee Institute. The wealth of the group in 1912 was estimated at seven hundred millions. The survey reveals great progress also in the matter of Negro education, the amount expended for this purpose by all agencies having 'been about' $40,000,000 in 1924, as against $13,576,561 in 1912. Up to 1912 five thousand Negroes had completed college courses. Since that time, the number has doubled. The demand for educated Negroes has been rapidly increasing in all lines, according to Dr. Work. The race has made decilled gains also in the matter of health. The death rate, which was 32 per thousand in 1912 and 182 per thousand in 1913, decreased to 31 per cent. A study of mortality among 1,800,000 Negro policy holders of the Metropolitan Insurance Company shows that their life expectancy increased from 41.3 years in 1912 to 40.9 years in 1922. For the whole colored group, the life span has increased in the same period from 35 years to 40 years. The survey calls attention to the recent heavy movement of Negroes from rural communities to the city and from the South to the North. As a result, there are now almost a million more Negroes living in cities than there were thirteen years ago, and over half million more living in the North than at that time. Negroes are now so large-scale entrance of the Negro into industry, the 1920 census reporting 332,249 Negroes engaged in skilled and semi-skilled work. The survey points out a decided, growth of independence in politics on the part of Negroes and an increasing tendency in many localities to vote the Democratic ticket. It calls attention also to the growing tendency, particularly in the South, to deal with the problems of race adjustment on the basis of understanding and cooperation. This policy, according to the survey, has been found "of mutual benefit to both groups and to the whole community." SHAVING—A NUISANCE! By TOM J. NICHOLAS, Jr. ONE day a man with a shriveled brain decided that he might improve his homelike features by annihilating his beard—and thereby hangs this literary masterpiece. I make no bones of it, but say right out loud, I am bitterly opposed to shaving. Besides being a nurse, it is at times an absolute hardship, as a great many people must agree. If shaving were a pleasure, or if there was any great benefit derived from it, I would gladly follow the crowd. But try as I may I can't see the advantage of moving down my face foliage. Of course, razor and soap makers you have to have the shaving in the day. These cracks I now take not with a grain, but with a bag of salt. I have tried all the soaps and the alzers and all I can shave in three minutes nor can I experience the thrills of estasy, as the advertisements say I should. And so I turn to the alternative—raising a beard There are many things m't favor of whisker growing. First and most important, they would cut down expenses. I would have no use for razors except, maybe, to trim my corn; I would not need to tolerate the barber's leering face as a way to lighten the skin. If the danger if his hand might slip I could do away with that trick article, the crautat.

Fisk University was founded upon Fisk Hall in 1851. She has been muted by the love, prayers and philanthropy of individuals of intellectual integrity and possibilities of our group. He graduates are everywhere firmly standing, lige might oak, for correct principles; unlift of the under brother, and integral goodwill. Years ago the original Fisk Jubilee Sugars broadcasted our folk songs into the hearts of peasants and king, and their soulful music gettle field into beautiful Jubilee Hall which abides as a monument to that faithful little band whose olden voices, with fey exceptions, have long since been hushed by the 'cold and silent tomb.' Once upon a time Fisk students were happy. Amishible fiduciary relations existed between pupil and teacher, studentinitiative and self-pride were encouraged. Fatherhood of God and Brotherhood of Man were the Christian ideal and equality, student activities flourished, and everything possible was done to make the Fisk Family comfortable and content. Eratus Milo Cravath was an embodiment of the Old Fisk Spirch which guides the heart of the graduates in the path of the Golden Rule, and inspires them to serve their fellowman. But there has been a departure from the old landmark of yesterday. For several years insiders and outsiders have noted with alarm and regret a gradual effacement of time-honored Fisk traditions. A pronounced student unrest and a faculty indifference towards the alumni have been open secrets for a long period. In the meantime occasional protests were made against the untoward policies and hope was expressed that the administration would opportunely and ultimately revert to the former day when Fisk stood for all and all stood for Fisk. But February 4, marked a crash of ardent dreams. Pres. Geo. Vincent of Rockefeller Foundation Talks To Daytona School Daytona, Fla.-Dr. George Vincent, former president of the University of Minnesota, and now president of the Rockefeller Foundation, addressed the students and teachers of the Daytona-Cookman-Collegiate Institute Tuesday afternoon. Among the many interesting and outsounding characters that visit this school in the course of the tourist season, many have received a more casual and enlightening reception than did Dr. Vincent. After his address he looked into all departments of the school, Among other things he said: When you come to the place where you will be able to do things with your head and with your hand and do things which other people think is worth doing, this will get for your pleasure out of life. A mental pleasure is a very real pleasure. When you can understand something, when you can put things together and see them work out and see what they mean together—this is an amusingable pleasure. You don't have to get everything out of books—you can get an enormous education from contact with people. Manual training is taught in all first-class schools. We do not have it to make carpenters and engineers of people, but because we are a part of education, a very general part of education, and the girls in the leading institutions of the country are doing manual work in the schools because it is a general part of education. I suppose you have athletics. I was thrilled when I saw this group marching in with military step. I was a rocker once myself, and I want to say that I appreciated as I never appreciated before what military discipline is. It is a nice thing. One of the things I got was loyalty to my squad, loyalty to my company and loyalty to my battalion, football is a great game. I teaches students how to work together, people how to work together, I congratulate you upon this institution. I congratulate you upon the opportunities that you have here to get an education—the opportunity to live largely and happily, and to feel that every day you are knowing a little bit more about life—that you are getting a little bit more learning hit the things you see—working in more sympathy and love with other people." Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Go To High Schol—Go To College Campaign For 1925 Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Go To High Schol—Go To College Campaign For 1925 Washington, D.C. - Vigorous will be the sixth annual "Go to High School Go to College" campaign to be waged throughout the United States by the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity during the week of May 11 to 17 inclusive, according to Norman McLeese national secretary of the fraternity. The 56 chapters of the fraternity, with a total membership aggregating 3500, will conduct systematic drive to bring the gospel of "Go to High School Go to College" to the attention of the twelve million colored people, men, women and children in every part of the United States. Raymond W. Laucher National president and director of the educational campaign, has spent three months collecting educational data to be published in a Iqaluit. This bullet will contain numerous inspirational messages from noted educators both white and colored and other material which suggests the value of through preparation on part of the Negro child for a life of service to his race, his country, and his time. The goal of the fraternity this year is to reach five million parents and students with fundamental messages regarding the need of education. Among those who will cooperate with Director R. Rehm, W. Cannon will be Associate Directors James W. McGregor, vice president of the fraternity, Foston F. Anderson, second vice president, James A. Scott, third vice president; Charles W. Greene, fourth vice president; Norman L. McGhee, secretary; Honey Cooper, treasurer; and Oscar C. Brown, editor of The Sphinx. Last November a few chosen representatives from the student body appeared before the trustee board, and respectfully asked for certain activities. The board was attentive and, with one exception, seemed inclined towards the students' viewpoints. The matter was submitted in the president for adjustment and the trustees departed for three several homes. Repeatedly the hopeful students voiced unavailing-pleas to the president for the establishment of the activities which are recognized, as an integral program of most well-regulated universities everywhere. The Vanderbilt Husler, a student paper of Vanderbilt University (Nashville, Tenn.) in the issue of February, 2012, states that Vanderbilt has the things asked for by the Fisk students and points out that the aim is to use them. (1). For the good of the University and (2). Education: In the same issue Geo. W. director of Fisk contributes an article describing the activities sought by the students. The sympathetic attitude of the Vanderbilt teaches Fisk students is expressive of all white and colored institutions which believe in a happy progressive college life. But the president of Fisk gave his students' scant encouragement and was uncommitted until February 4 when he stated, in effect, that the rules of the university remained unchanged and would be enforced, as heretofore. This announcement disconcerted the students. They were non-plussed, discouraged, impatient, depressed, and were thrown into a twin state of anxiety, neurosis and disappointment hysteria. The long sad day of February 4 came to an end. The night came on. Then a protest in the form of a demonstration was staged among the boys of Livingstone Hall. The slight injury done the building to restore order as done on previous occasions. He became accustomed, lost his self-passion, had a hasty conference with men of the Procedural Committee and decided to call in the civil authorities to adjust a situation which should have been searched by himself and faculty. "No searching of rooms was asked, for no prosecution was desired," said a member of the faculty, but rooms were searched and students were arrested. Students were intimidated and terrified, five were unjustly arrested and when the trial was held next day the charge of inciting a "riot" was withdrawn because specific evidence was watching. It goes without saying these murders were humiliated beyond expression. The student body felt insecure, impatient and suffered, unmeasured, mental and physical distress. Their thoughts hurried across the many miles of mothers and loved one at home. The mothers and trunks breathed, with choked breaths. Goodbye them, an exodus of about 75 of the student body from the university marked the final act of an unfortunate drama which will remain as a lasting memorial to the president's discredit and inability to appreciate the happy technique of commanding the good will, esteem and cooperation of his student body. Come, Spirit O Cravath, Fisk Hath Need Of Thee! Were it possible to begin again! Ma the mills will never grind again the waters that are passed! If the president had given respectful and favorable consideration to the students' requests for activities which are feasible and practicable—if the president had taken into his confidence the alumni aid, I firmly believe the perplexing internal and external problems, which from time to time have embarrassed the Fisk Family would have been threshed out with satisfaction to all concerned. Confidence in and co-operation between the Fisk triangle (inclinity, alumni and students) would have then vividly established and maintained the friendly and effectively pressed the even tenuous war. Then there would not have been the tragedy of errors which has done the university a great harm. Undue and based on propriety, has caused widespread a propaganda, misunderstanding opinion, and erosion not based on facts at the case in point. It is not significant that about 75 percent of the student body arose in opposition to its president, under whose care they had been for several years, and made an exodus from the university. Such a step is not the ordinary course of youthful conduct. Patience and time will reveal the logical reasons for this unified student action. Truth wears no masks bows at no human shrine. Sticks neither place no applause, the only asks a hearing. FISK UNIVERSITY IS GREATER THAN ANY ONE PERSON. Her unique position on the steady progress of our national life is indispensable and must not be weakened by destroyed by eccentric forces evidently unable to properly interpret, sympathize with and propagate its lofty ideals and Divine Mission. FISK UNIVERSITY MUST GO ON FORFVERI Address all letters and make all checks and money orders payable to THE NEW YORK AGE SATURDAY, APRIL 4, 1925 TRYING TO SAVE ANGLO-SAXON The Newport News Daily Press has embarked upon the ungrateful task of trying to save the Anglo-Saxon race in Virginia from itself. It has assumed the onus of encouraging the formation of an Anglo-Saxon club as a part of the State organization, quoting as its motive that portion of the creed of the club which says, "I believe in the supremacy of the white race in the United States of America, without racial prejudices or hatreds." It also avows that this organisation is not unfriendly to the Negro race. But the editor of the Press has an obsession which tells him that "powerful influences are at work throughout the United States, in the Southern States as well as in the Northern States, to wipe out the color line and place the two races upon terms of absolute equality." The ultimate aim of that movement, according to the frenzied vision of the Press editor, is amalgamation, "the absorption of the Negro race by the white race." How this is to be accomplished without the consent, in fact without the initiative of the white race, the editor does not explain. But this vision of amalgamation, evolved from some complex in the mind of the clarmist, is used as an excuse to make a most insidious and unwarranted attack upon the work and teachings of Hampton Institute, although the writer refrains from mentioning the name of that institution. The reference is as follows.

But this vision of amalgamation, evolved from some complex in the mind of the alarmist, is used as an excuse to make a most insidious and unwarranted attack upon the work and teachings of Hampton Institute, although the writer refrains from mentioning the name of that institution. The reference is as follows. We say that powerful influences are at work to wipe out racial distinctions and give the Negro realization of his ambitions. Here in this old Virginia community, rich in history and tradition, here where the first permanent white man's settlement was made, there is an institution which teaches and practices social equality between the white and Negro races. It is the richest institution in Virginia and money by the million is flowing into its endowment fund. It is richer than the University of Virginia, than William and Mary College or any other State institution of learning. It has the finest library in this section of Virginia. It has the finest pipe organ. It has the very best equipment that money can buy and it has a commodious auditorium where the highest class of entertainments are served the public, entertainments so costly that no other institution in the community could afford them. These entertainments are freely patronized by white men and women who sit side by side with the Negro men and women of the institution and other Negroes residing in Hampton and vicinity. There is no pretense of separating the races in the auditorium. To the contrary, the whites are informed that if they attend the entertainments they must come on the same terms as the Negroes, and no distinctions made. To make such distinctions obviously would be contrary to the policy of an institution which teaches racial equality. Moreover, it is clearly in furtherance of that policy to have the whites of the Old Dominion turn away from the traditions and mix freely with Negroes in the auditorium of a Negro school. This institution transits its students well in orals, manners and handtrait and there is not a better behaved set of students in the United States, not one of whom, we are informed, has ever been arrested for crime of disorderly conduct. And the officers and teachers of the institution are men and women of high character and exemplary conduct. But all that enhances the danger which this article is designed to point out and take care of is still greatest in the Northern and Western States white and Negro children are taught in the same schools by the same teachers without racial distinction. In some cases white children are taught in colored teachers. The children of both races are thrown together on terms of perfect equality they play together they become "pals" and why not "sweetheart". That set of association is apt to break down racial distinctions eventually and analogy would follow as a corollary. It is hard to accept this argument as put forth in good faith. If the writer of this book had really wanted to know the effect of mixed schools and the use of public facilities by both races in common as factors in malgamation of the races, he would have made an intensive study of some large community where such conditions have existed for a period of twenty five years. If he had taken New York as an example, he would have found that the unrestricted mixing of races in public schools and in public It is hard to accept this argument as put forth on good faith. If the writer of this editorial had really wanted to know the effect of mixed schools and the use of public facilities by both races in common as factors in amalgamation of the races, he would have made an intensive study of some large community where such conditions have existed for a period of twenty five years. If he had taken New York as an example, he would have found that the unrestricted missing of the races in public schools and in public places generally has had no effect in the matter of mixed marriages. As a matter of fact, he would have found that while the law and public opinion permit such alliances as an affair of individual choice, that the social sentiment of both races is largely opposed to them as a matter of expedience. Dr James L. Gregg the principal Hampton in tutute wrote a reply to the editor of the Press in which he expressed his regret at the reference to that institution in that it indicated a misapprehension of the facts which might easily become widespread. He further stated that the Institute exists to help the Negro race and to serve the whole nation. "It has simply tried to be courteous and harbor on the one hand to its white friends. both of the North and of the South, and on the other hand to its Negro constituency. It is our hope that it may help to enable the United States eventually to show to the world that men of different races can live and work happily, slide by side, conserving the beat traditions of each group, in mutual respect and in Christian good will." The spirit which possesses this unhappy Virginia editor is the spirit of intolerance and bigotry, which is bent on saving the white South from an imaginary danger, which could only be incurred of its own volition. The immediate result of such distorted vision is to intensify race prejudice and promote racial friction. Such articles induce a state of mind among the less thoughtful members of the community that subverts law and order and encourages such revivals of barbarism as followed soon after at Waverly. The editor of the Daily Press-should-stop "seeing things" that do not exist and place greater confidence in the desire and ability of the Anglo-Saxon race to maintain its own integrity through natural selection, as other races do. STATE BOXING COMMISSION The New York State Boxing Commission has been something of an enigma, so far as its political and racial bias was concerned. But one time it was regarded as setting its face earnly against bouts between black and white fighters. This was supposed to be the policy fathered by Commissioner William Muldoon, at that time chairman of the board. Soon after Muldoon lost the chairmanship, he ban against mixed bouts was removed and fighters of both races met in the squared circle and exchanged blows with more or less vigor, without any serious injury to the peace of the community. Later Commissioner Farley succeeded Rower as chairman and the Board ordered Jack Dempsey to accept the challenge of Harry Wills, the Negro fighter who has so long been seeking to meet the champion. Dempsey perfunctorily accepted the challenge and there the matter ended, in default to the offer of a purse and place for the meeting by some promoter with sufficient funds for the purpose. Last week the commission went a step further and placed Jack Dempsey, heavy-eight champion of the world, on the ineligible list, for his failure to make a satisfactory reply to the new challenge which Harry Wills filed with the board about a month ago. Chairman Farley handed out the following official statement covering the case: The New York State Boxing Commission has been something of an enigma, so far as its political and racial bias was concerned.

Chairman Farley handed out the following official statement covering the case: "The New York State Athletic Commission has placed Jack Dempsey on the ineligible list for failing to comply, with the law governing boxing in the State of New York. "The New York State Athletic Commission forbids any licensed club, matchmaker or any official connected with a licensed club in this state or with any other official or any acquisition for a match with any boxer suspended or on the ineligible list of the New York State Athletic Commission." Of course this action by the commission is no effect outside of New York State. The chief significance to be attached to it is that it emphasizes the intention of the commission to put an end to any color line so as boxing and other athletic sports are concerned. This is a gratifying indication of the new policy which now prevails in this state. Credit for this step must be given not only to the commission as now constituted, but, to Governor Smith who appointed the present members of the board.

PROGRESS IN CAPITALIZATION The latest convert to the use of the term Negro" as a proper noun, beginning with a capital letter as is the rule with all other oper nouns, is the New York Herald Trune, the chief journalistic exponent of Rebeicanism in this city, if not in the country, as paper is the direct outgrowth of the New York Tribune, which rose to fame as The latest convert to the use of the term "Negro" as a proper noun, beginning with a capital letter as is the rule with all other proper nouns, is the New York Herald Tribune, the chief journalistic exponent of Republicanism in this city, if not in the country. This paper is the direct outgrowth of the New York Tribune, which rose to fame as the organ of Horace Greeley over half a century ago. It has also fallen heir to the best traditions of the Herald and the Sun, combining the legacies of the genius of Charles A. Dana and James Gordon Bennett. So far as we know this makes two of the great New York dailies now following the dignified method of printing Negro as a proper noun when using it as a racial title. The World and the Herald Tribune. The Evening Post and the Loving Mail followed the same course at one time, but in the various changes of ownership during the past few years we do not know whether the former still follows that style or not. The late Globe was another evening paper that capitalized Negro until Mr. Munsey included it with the Mail in his mansoleum of New York dailies. The adoption of this practice by the Herald Tribune is of several veeal standing, so we judge that it is to be considered as permanent. It seems to have been simultaneous with the recognition of the paper of the fact that the greatest Negro city of the world was located in Harlem. It signaled this recognition by an editorial based on the special issue of the Survey Graphic and emphasized it in the following Sunday issue, by devoting the column entitled "A Week of Verse," to the reproduction of poems by Negro poets. This new departure by the Herald Tribune appeals to us as sound policy, based on strictly grammatical grounds and justified as well by good form and good sense. A RELAPSE INTO BARBARISM It looks as though the authorities of Sussex county, Virginia, had done their best to justify the imputation of the Staten Island jurist, who not long ago told a Negro prisoner convicted of robbing and assaulting a woman, "if this had happened in your home State of Virginia you would have been burned at the stake." On March 20 an unidentified Negro was taken from the jail at Waverly, sixty miles from Norfolk, and lynched by a mob estimated at two thousand persons. The body was later burned. The charge on which he was held was, according to the account published in the Norfolk Virginian Pilot, that of attacking a white woman.

The charge in which he was held was, according to the account published in the Norfolk Virginian jiot, that of attacking a white woman. The Commonwealth attorney, in a statement made to the same paper, claimed that the officers did everything they could to present the lynching. Efforts were made to carry the prisoner to some other place for safekeeping, "but the people both white and colored, were so incensed and outraged that they blocked all roads and there was nothing else to do but take the prisoner to Wavilly." Beyond a speech by the Commonwealth attorney, no defence of the jail appeared to have been made against the mob, the attempt to include the colored people with the mob element is significant. The Suffolk News called for a rigid investigation of the matter in an editorial, in which it said: The Commonwealth attorney, in a statement made to the same paper, claimed that the officers did everything they could to prevent the lynching. Efforts were made to carry the prisoner to some other place for safekeeping, "but-the people both white and colored, were so incensed and outraged that they blocked all roads and there was nothing else to do but take the prisoner to Waverly."

The Suffolk News called for a rigid investigation of the matter in an editorial, in which it said: The governor of Virginia should call upon the authorities of Sussex county for a rigid investigation of the mob outbreak at Waverly last night, to ascertain why the dignity of the law was not upheld by its sworn officers, and if possible to punish those who have put another dark blot on the fair name of Virginia. This is imperative. Either the law or the mob is to rule in this state. The question is, which is supreme and which-what control the destinies of Virginia? The killing of a friend and the burning of his body is merely incidental. It is the open and flagrant flouting of the laws of the commonwealth that makes this case regrettable. This seems to show a realization of what such relapses into barbarism mean to the civilization of Virginia, once the seat of warning and the mother of presidents. The relapse into mob rule and savagery only serves to justify the gibes of such Northerners as the Richmond county judge who onlyinks of Virginia as the State where theyarm Negroes.

MISS BURROUGHS SHOCKED Miss Nannie H Burroughs writes a letter to the editor of The Age, stating that she was rocked by a false report that has gone the bounds of the Negro press. This report was the effect that the National Training School for Women and Girls, of which Miss Burroughs is the president, had just received 33,233.00 from the National Baptist Convention of the United States of America, Incorporated. Miss Burroughs affirms that there is no truth in this publication. The only amount ever received by this school through the agency of the convention, was ten dollars its pro rata portion of a drive in 1923. Miss Burroughs makes a strong and moving appeal for contributions to help carry on the work she has undertaken for the benefit of women and girls. The school has no enquiry or permanent income and is under heavy load of debt. Money is needed to by several notes that are past due and credits are pressing for the payment of open counts. A heating plant is on the grounds, putting for the money to install it. The count needed to meet these various emergencies is about twenty-five thousand dollars on the face of this need for money the image that a false report of such a large nation would do the school is obvious. The damage can only be repaired by the efforts of the churches, organizations and individuals to make the report at least partly true, by raising funds needed.

NOT A FOREIGN QUARTER In the New York World of last Saturday there appeared a letter to the editor, headed "Harlem's Negro District," signed by J W Carson and dated at Woodside, L. I. The letter was apparently written with friendly intent from the standpoint of a white Southerner, but it revealed a curious misconception of the relation of the Negro to the history of this country. We reproduce the communication herewith: in the New York World of last Saturday we appeared a letter to the editor, headed Harlest's Negro District," signed by J W. Wilson and dated at Woodside, L. I. The letter was apparently written with friendly intent from the standpoint of a white Souther, but it revealed a curious misconception of the relation of the Negro the history of this country. We reproduce communication herewith: Comments By The Age Editors On Sayings of Other Editors Mr. people are Southerners and hold their usual Southerner's views concerning the Negro. I am well acquainted with the Harlem district as well as all the other foreign quarters. Show me one foreign settlement where the streets are as clean or more courteous as shown one on passing through, or there are cleaner and better behaved children even if ragged, and cleaner homes even if crowded and poorly furnished. True, there is love as in all of the congested areas. It is not the Negro's fault that he lives that way. We force him to it. Did you ever hear of any Red meetings in Harlem? Does the largest per cent, of our gunmen come from there? Give the clean-living, right-thinking Negroes (and there are thousands) a chance, with a helping hand, and they will work out their own destiny. Do you expect to accomplish with the Negroes as a whole in seventy-five years what it has taken several centuries to do with the whites? Show me any other race of people on the globe that will meet and stand adversely with a smile as the Negro does. If you New Yorkers (and I am one) think that you have a bad black belt just take a trip to Chicago and you'll come back with a different outlook. The Negro is entirely out of his natural environment in congested districts. To class the Negro residential section of Harlem with "the other foreign quarters," or to refer to it as a "foreign settlement," is to betray a total ignorance or misunderstanding of the attitude and relation of the Negro to all things American. Since the day when Crispus Attucks became the first martyr of the Bos- The Baltimore Herald and Commonwealth noted the following award of merit by an unnamed donor of that city, which for the first time passed over the color line. It said: Wesley Cager. 605 Wayne Street was among four men who received a "Merit Award" of $500 from "Citizen" who makes this award annually Cager is the first Negro ever elected for one of the awards. In selecting the employee of the Gas and Electric Company most worthy of "Citizen's" award for the year, the company's committee was of the "unanimous opinion that the most mistrustious deed was that of Wesley Cager, a colored man employed as a caulkner in the gas distribution department. At the risk of his own life, Cager rescued his foreman from a "manhole filled with escaping gas." This recognition of conspicuous merit, regardless of the color of the possessor, is an indication of a better sentiment growing in Baltimore. Such manifestations as this are signs of a better day. The following news item, under a Detroit date line, printed in a number of Negro newspapers, is both significant and encouraging. Through efforts of John C. Dancy Jr., secretary of the Detroit Urban League, young Negro graduates in mechanical engineering, Alvin Lee and J F Lee, from the University of Michigan and Purdue University, respectively, have been placed at work on the lines of the Detroit Street Railways. This is regarded as an encouraging piece of progress. Mr Dancy states that there are prospects for the placement of other Negro technical graduates in equally important professions with leading companies of Michigan It is the opening of such positions with public service corporations and other large industrial concern, that encourages the youth of the race to persevere in the requirement of technical training. The civil service also helps to wards such empowerment by the state, municipal and Federal governments. In an editorial on "High Rents and Vacant Houses" the Indianapolis Free民 noted a result in Negro tenants against the protesting landlords and real estate men of fortune. It said That Negro tenant stood for this flown planning three weeks after wages had been reduced, some of work culminated entirely, led the rentings to the belief that they could go from indefinently and that they proceeded upon the plan with a road that astounded the plucked. Plans for solutions were met with a flurried bill refused. Negroes became so many mankins to be shifted and blinded to one group and then, by the use, Negroes for improvements were met with such, but finally the awakening came, landlords who a few months ago, blinded by greed and an insulting independence, had refused to lower their rent or improve their property, are finding them empty and no scramble on the part of Negroes to occupy them. There is at the present time a civil war going on between two groups of house owners, the one with unimproved property and the other with the shackets. The shackets owners are still of the opinion that they are in a position to demand the pound of flesh for their unacceptable dwelling and are presently along those lines. But there is one unpleasant fact and that is renters have to drop and that considerable bets we see any appreciable improvement in the varant house situation in Negro neighborhoods. The rent leaders have told the community. They have demanded and received the last pound on the consequently there is nothing spare to them. There is a lesson in this situation for the rent producers of Heleum and other sections. Variant houses seem to be the only argument that can convince these owners that they are killing the groove that lays the golden edge The Age Readers' Forum ton massacre in the revolt against British tyranny and Peter Salam shot down the British commander, Major Pitcairn, at Bunken Hill, there has been no, more patriotic American than the Negro. It must also be remembered that the Negro entered this country almost contemporaneously with the whites and has contributed of his tears and toil to its building up to its present greatness. The black man has never divided his allegiance with any other motherland, the ancient birthplace of his ancestors, Africa, being too far removed by time and distance to be other than a vague tradition. The only considerable portion of the colored race who fail to qualify as wholesouled Americans in Harlem, or other parts of this country, would be those immigrants from the British West Indies, who stubbornly clung to their English origin. Mr.Carson is entirely in error when he endeavors to stamp the Negroes of Harlem as a foreign element. Their Americanism is one of the most conspicuous traits about them, it being revealed, in all the virtues and vices of the national character which have been adopted and absorbed by the race during the past three hundred years. In discussing the case of a local insurance man, who was arrested for the reported violation of a "jim crow" statute by riding in one of the Houston Electric Company's busses, the Houston Informer, said. In trying to evade the real issue and settle it before it reaches an ugly stage, the city and traction company, in dropping the Mitchell case (in fact, they really had no case against this young man, for there is no law on the statute book, either state or municipal, that prohibits colored citizens from riding on common carriers, the law merely provides that the races must be separated by a marker or partition, but accommodations MUST Bl. EQUAL); are playing with fire and merely delaying the day when this issue is going to torment and annoy them like Banguo's ghost, which would not down. The Houston Electric Company officials and the city officials should stop trying to deny the colored patrons of the former's traction system and citizens of the latter's municipality their constitutional and malleable rights; and the colored citizens of Houston, taking the huddle case as their cue and basis for contentious bullying, should not man for men or of men can longer refuse to accord to our race those rights and privileges that are ours under the laws of the city state and country. But, friends, talk will not net us very much; it will require concerted action to heal this cut of racial prejudice an More Interesting Each Week Lettor of the New York Age: Enclosed and money order for renewal of *subscription* for the ensuing year.

LIVINGSTON How a man uses money makes it save, and spends it is perhaps one of the best its is practical wisdom. Although money ought to no means to be regarded as a chief end of man's life, neither is a trafficking matter to be held in philosophical contempt representing, as it does to so large an extent the means of physical comfort and social well-being. Indeed some of the finest qualities of human nature are intimately related to the right use of money, such as generosity, honesty, justice and self-sacrifice; as well as the practical virtues of economy and providence. On the other hand, there are their counterparts of avarice, jealousy and selfishness as displayed by the lovers of gamet and the vices of their lovers of extraagaine and improvidence, on the part of a man who abuses the means intrusted to them. The use of money is the most and most important art of man as a culture, the most of which measures the creation of his activities, and secures for him worldly comfort and a barrier against the more visible and mutilations of life. It comforts in worldly circumstances a condition which every man is required in striving to attain by all worthy means. It secures that physical satisfaction which is necessary for the culture of the better part of his nature, and enables him to provide for those of his own household, without which, says (assignment) ("There is silence"). "The injustice and futility of such caws" laws are aptly illustrated in such cases as this one in Houston. At the Informer recommends, only consented action and reason to legal methods will put an end to such undemocratic prac- tices. The holding of an inter-racial state conference at Birmingham was pre-ceeded by the Birmingham Reporter offering much hope and encouragement. It continued. We must know our neighbors, municipalities and States better. We must be willing to aid in every worst movement and make the need a priority for the promotion of ever cause. Mr. Burton is somewhat indifferent if it is used to assist an influential man to speak out, to stand up and be counted among people who believe in justice and for play. We are to be complimented for the advances made in this direction and the possibilities of the future. The Negro race in Alabama needs to concern itself about making more friends, establishing a better relation with the people nearest our door. We need them now and are going to need their support and counsel in the future. We must have an understanding among ourselves. Effort in uplift work is always good; it can best be accomplished through an organisation looking to the interest of all humanity. The Interracial organization in Alabama will prove a benediction for the Negro and the State if its purpose is properly understood. It will diplomate and good understand all matters better than can be handled without question. All of us need to study well the program and convince ourselves of the mission. It is a wonderfully fine effort on the part of white and black people in Alabama to be the people of Alabama. The further we go into the field of racial activity the more we see the need of an interracial movement. The inter-racial movement for better conditions is one of the most hopeful and significant indications of progress in the South. While the results are of new growth, they are bound to show in the building up of enlightened public sentiment. A new trial has been granted John Mitchell, Jr., the veteran editor of the Richmond Planet who was also president of a Richmond savings bank. A clipping from the Richmond News Leader, reproduced in the Planet, said: John Mitchell, Jr., convicted in the Hustings Court of false and fraudulent entries with intent to defraud the Mechanics Savings Bank, will have a new trial, the Supreme Court of Appa's today reversing his case on several grounds. The original indictment against Mitchell contained eighteen counts. These were reduced to three. On a motion to quash, two of these, charging larceny of $19,000, were eliminated, leaving the matter of the entries to be determined by the jury. The appellate court today held that having charged that the entries were "false and fraudulent" it was necessary for the commonwealth to prove this and that on the face of the record there was failure of proof on this point. It was also held, among other things, that the trial court's instruction on the weight of character evidence was erroneous. Mr Mitchell is to be congratulated on having secured—a reversal of his first trial and his friends will hope for a legal vindication from any criminal intention in his conduct of the bank. the apostle. "A man is worse than an infidel." The respect which our fellowmen tendertain for us in a great degree depends upon the manner in which we exercise the opportunities which present themselves to us for our honorable advance in life. The very effort required to be made to succeed in life with the object in view is of itself an education stimulating a man's sense of self-reliance bringing out his practical qualities in disciplining him in the exercise of patience and perseverance. The right use of money is a great selfrespect and selfdignity. The man is provident and careful must be faithful and selfrestraining.

A message of regret, however, was read from Mrs. Lawton who was unable to attend. Mrs. Frazier in her usual interesting and instructive manner spoke on the religious and moral aspects of the youth problem of this community. Other important talks were made by invited speakers. Mrs. Caroline Belle, Cullen, the pastor's wife, arranged the musical part of the program, which included soba by Medames Gowins and Greenidge of choir, and a quartet selection by Medames.

Grace Church of Harlem A great crowd turned out last Sunday to enjoy the services of Grace Church, Rev. A. C. Garner, pastor. The church is in the midst of special lenten services and the Rev. Dr. D. J. Flynn of Charlotte, N. C., is preaching for ten days. His sermons last Sunday were highly enjoyed. Rev. Mr. Flynn is a Bible preacher. He quotes scripture freely and is deeply in earnest about his Master's business. The large audiences were repaid for their time in listening to the sermons. He meets every night through Palm Sunday. Friday afternoon at 4 o'clock there is a special-service for children and mothers. On Palm Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock he will preach to men only on the theme, "A Haircut in the Devil's Barber Shop." A musician under the auspices of the Tribe of Daniel follows the men's service, then the Junior Endeavor at 6:30 p.m. and Dr. Flynn in his final service at 8 p.m. The Evangelical appeal from Dr. Flynn brought seven people into the Christian army: Miss-Anna V. Scott, Wm. W. Hogue and Mr. Tyson on confession of faith Miss Scott and Mr. Hogue received baptism; those joining by Christian experience were: Mrs. Carter from Newport, R I; Mrs Vivienne D. Perguson, Mrs. Berl the Jordan and Mrs. Reid. Special the Church School the auspices of the Church School was held at 5 p.m. Miss Olive Hopkins sang two numbers superbly. She is a great favorite with Grace Church people as well as the public generally. Two addresses were made by Miss Mary Denniston and Miss Wagner, both of the Education Department of the Federation of Churches of Greater New York, N B Scott, the superintendent, presided. The Senior Endeavor group had a meeting from the Nixon School of Music. These were young pupils and the program was calculated to stimulate youthful performers. The members are now bending every effort to unake the Easter events the most successful in the history of the church. Dr Garner has a program that runs far into the summer. The Congregational Women are on the boards for a whole day's session after Easter. Dinner was served last Sunday by Mrs Beyes of the Tribe of Naphitah. While she was listening to the service, boys helped themselves to chicken and cake, thus reducing her profits for the Easter Rally. St. James Pres. Church Rev. Wm Lloyd Ims of Philadelphia occupied the pulpit at St James last Sunday. He preached two great sermons. In the morning, subject "A Vision of God", Isaac 61: 1 evening, "Mars, the Herone of Faith". In spite of inelement weather the church was crowded. When Dr. Ims stepped down from the pulpit at the close of service members and friends praised him for his scholarly sermons, and expressed his concern to come again. Rev. Griffin of Atlantic City, N. J will preach next Sunday. The annual congregation meeting was held last Wednesday with Dr. Mendenhal presiding Reports of the years work were read According to reports. St James during the year was "Sometimes up, sometimes down, and sometimes almost to the ground" Temperature began rise in Elders Blue, Stockton and Ioway were re-elected for terms of three years each. The annual report of the trustees was well prepared. Finances reached a low mark. However, a steady growth is not noticeable for the past month Messrs Hampton and Whitener were re-elected trustees, also Dr H C Blue J Lamar Whitener is president of the board of trustees. Sunday school was well attended throughout the week as auxiliaries are becoming active in their special work. The Wednesday evening hour of prayer service is growing in interest and attendance. Where To Go To Church Mother Zion Church The usual Junior Church service was opened at 10:45 a.m. The preacher was Rev. H. L. Hill of Abyssinian Baptist Church. His sermon text was "How Boys and Girls can help Jesus." The number of members present were 98. The members of number 1 were the members of Ibligh Church. Hill will be the service on Friday, April 3.

In the main auditorium, the services were conducted at 11 a.m. The choir rendered "fringing music." Dr. Brown was the preacher. He delivered one of his lenten sermons on "The Message from the Hills and Mountain." At the close of his discourse, peraques were received from the church. Each week, the Sunday school convened. Quite a number were present. Much interest is now being manifested in the approaching Easter celebration which, it is hoped will be a success.

Collection for the day. $290.75 At the 11 o'clock service, in the absence of our pastor, Rev. J. W. Evans, a teacher in the Abyssinian Community House, spoke from the text: "Study to show they approved unto God, a work that needeth not to be done, but to the power of truth." 2 Tim: 2:15. The sermon was thoughtful and unplagious. Pastor Bolden followed up his series of discourses on our Lord 'the Emmanuel's ministry, leading up to his sufferings. At Abissinian Baptist Church he spoke from the text: "In my Fathers house are many mansions; if it were not so I would have told you. I go to prepare a place. I go to the Blessing of Jesus. The Blessing of Sons of Jesus. His Gospel of Comfort, Reconciliation, and Everlasting Life." He said: That the excitement and controversy over the Virgin Birth of Jesus should not weaken the faith or disturb believers to the extent that they become depressed, alarmed, and many of them apostates. For if they get the mind of God, the Father, which was also in Christ Jesus, our Lord the Emmuel, which mind is given to believers, by the power of the Holy Spirit, they may be made able to see the truth of the Virgin Birth of our Lord. When this illumination takes place in the mind of believers, they become members of the Heavenly Father's family, and they see and realize the comfort in both the historical activities and teachings of our Lord. They may become able to look back through the ages of human development, and see Him who was called, Jesus, manifesting Himself in various forms, forms, elements and symbols; as God拯救 the world unto Himself. They will become conscious that He is the Only Begotten Son of God; born of virgin life, virgin humanity, and a Virgin Mother Mary; and is the One and Only One, ever hath been or ever will be, in the human family that can, has promised, and will give Everlasting Life to those who believe in Him as God. This vast and endless immensity, that the most modern and intellectual astronomers prove by mathematical and glencier analysis that there are worlds and universes and gigantic stars that make our world and the central sun of our solar system appear insignificant as to diameter, circumference, intensity of heat, brilliancy of light and radiation, and the power for manifesting life, is all the result of this declaration, "In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth." This God was the same as was in Jesus. It was His spirit that moved upon the face of the deep and set in motion the kingdoms in mature. It was His 'Breath of Life, breathed into man made in His image and likeness, that made Him become a living soul. It was His creative power that fashioned the human mind and body and organized the most perfect self-production, self-starting, self-directing and self-inferno human machine known elsewhere in the vast immensity. Who was He who the embodiment of everlasting love, who knew that death would come to the self-worth world through am He therefore embraced Himself for entrance into organic life and the world of humanity through manifestations among nations and peoples of all races in their highest ideas of living, of faith, of law, of tender compassion, of embling thoughts, and finally through His own human birth, short time life activity, death by the way of the cross, resurrection from the grave, and ascension with a glorious everlasting body up into heaven. He is the Only One that could ever say, "In my father's house are many mansion," for His Father's House is the vast immensity. He is the Only One that has the right and power to say, "I go away to prepare a place for you!" He is the only one who can fulfill this promise, "I will come again and receive you unto myself, that where I am there ye may be also." He was conscious early, even as a child, that in the world of humanity He must be about His Heavenly Father's business. He proved that He was a life—restorer and giver in bringing back people from the dead, healing others's diseases, for-giving them to their sons. Believers should have neither fears nor doubts nor should their hearts be troubled. "As we believe in God, we believe in him." The Sunday school was opened at 2 p.m. by the superintendent R. W. Hogans. At 4:30 p.m., the Literary Society convened, Miss Louise Wilkerson having charge of the program At 8 p.m., Pastor Bolden continued his discourse of the morning sermon at his own church. This sermon was inspiring and uplifting. The dinner was served during the day by the members of the Missionary Society, and $12 was given to the church. Splendid music was rendered by the choir at both the morning and evening service. In the afternoon, Pastor Bolden attended the funeral of the late Rev Acecose in Brooklyn and spoke Miss Therea V Greene attended the funeral also and sang. Special services at the church Palm Sunday. In the morning and evening distribution of palms by the pastor. At the church next week special Holy Week evangelical services. Harlem Second Seventh Day Adventist Church Harlem Second Seventh Day Adventist Church Pastor Strachan spoke Sunday night at the Harlem Second Seventh Day Adventist Church, 106 108 West 127th street. His theme was, "Protestantism." In the course of his remarks the pastor said, "It was not only the aim of the apostles to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ, but also their burden to warn men against any corruption of that gospel." "The great danger that threatened the teaching of the apostles was the introduction of human theories which were calculated to prevent divine instruction. Hence Paul, not only compelled the apostles to preach the truth, but warned him to beware of any departure from its lotty standards." When fall taught, Paul hailed the occasion as time for Tmothy to nail up his thesis against the preaching errors. When Tetzel appeared selling indignences, Martin Luther nailed ced up his 95 protesters. "In these modern times of wide departure from the fundamentals of Christian doctrines, we protestants should not only preach, the positive truth, but we must warn against the deceitfulness of popular errors. "Here are our thesis. Number one: The Holy Scriptures, are of divine origin, and must be interpreted to the individuals by the Holy Spirit. They are a guilded order, from the monastery or custom of men. Number two: The Deliy of Christ rests upon His virgin birth. Deny one and you deny the other. Number three: The true head of the church is Christ. No man or pope has been appointed to take his place. Number four: The merits of Christ are the only ground of a sinner's acceptance, with God. This excludes dead saints and virgins. Number five: One sufficient sacrifice for sin was offered when Christ died. No attempt should be made to repeat it a mass. Number six: The Holy Ghost is appointed against that can make Christ's presence real. The wafer is a blasphemes substitute. Number seven: The dead are asleep and unconscious. Any appeal to them, or prayers for them, is vain and fruitless. "Roman Catholics tell us that protestantism is 'no religion at all,' and never was a religion. They call it a rape maquarading as a religion, hypocrisy in heaven's livery serving the seven deadly sins. She says American protestants are unbaptized heathen. She says the Roman Catholics in Rome are gospel hoboes, audacious proselyters, offensive and insane firebrands. "But we protestants are better informed. We know protestantism stands for the emancipation of true religion. It is a heaven born principle, quickening the inner life, directing noble effort, permitting the highest development and the fullest accomplishment of all the grand purposes of God. There is no nobler term than protestant. True protestantism is revived Christianity, Thank God for protestants." Mt. Calvary Ind. Meth. Church Mt. Calvary Church is rapidly growing and doing a splendid work in the community, as was seen by the congregations which packed the auditorium at three services held there last Sunday. The pastor, at "the morning service, spoke on "The Wonders of God." He said that aside from the wonder we find in the creation with all its variations of land and earth, sky, water, mountains, and valleys, woodland, and open plain, there is only one other thing in all the range of human experience that challenges the Almighty to manage and govern, and that is man. The wonder of God is always seen when He undertakes to subduce the human heart. Even the most men are sometimes conscious of the vitality within them. All the wonders God has displayed since creation have providential purposes in behalf of man. The plan of Salvation is a wonder in its conception. God has created a being and in so doing provided for the keep of that being in a state of Holiness and perfection. Gods Great wonder is seen in his love. The whole scheme of salvation is prompted by love. "God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have eternal life" John 3.16. The subject of the evening was "The Power of Jesus to Heal as well as to John" Save 4. 46-53. This message came as a consolation to many who have been trusting in the weaknesses of man instead of the omniscience of God to heal the sick and broken body. A plea for all is to trust God and "all things we shall ask shall be received." Abyssinian Baptist Church Dr Richard M, Bolden delivered a most informing and inspiring sermon to a packed auditorium Sunday morning. Nineteen persons united with the church at the close of the message. The Missionary Society, Mra Julia O Hagan, president, held a mass meeting in the afternoon which was addressed by Dr Hayes of the Mt. Olivet Baptist Church. Dr Hayes talked about his visit to Jeppa. The address was both educational and devotional. The music was furnished by the Sunday Eventing Lyeum Quartet and Miss Ruth Watson of the Little Mt. Zion Baptist Church.

Dr Powell will deliver his third lecture in his series of lectures on his trip abroad, taking for his subject, "From the Land of The Caesars to the Land of the Pharaohs," on April 30. Palm services will be held up, and downstairs next Sunday morning. In the evening Dr. Powell will deliver the annual sermon to the Friendly Society. St. Luke's Mission St. Luke's Episcopal Mission still continues to draw large crowds Sunday after Sunday. Half an hour before each service the chapel is crowded, and even standing room is at a premium. Last Sunday morning the preacher was the vicar himself who preached one of his vigorous soul-stirring sermons. At the evening service the precursor was the former vicar, the Rev, Dr. Scott Wood. A large crowd which could not get in the crowded chapel waited outside to greet Dr. Scott Wood. Dr. Wood took as his theme, "The Storm." He told the congregation that when God wants to try a man he usually puts him in a storm. The storm tests the calibre of men. He cited many instances in which world characters were placed in the storms of criticism and opposition, but only the strong courageous men survived. All leaders will be criticised but only the strong and fearless will survive, and emerge stronger. The people were highly delighted with his strong spiritual season. Next Sunday the services will be as usual. Sunday being Palm Sunday there will be a distribution of palms at 11 a.m. "at Eventide," the solo composed by the Rev. E. Elliot Durant, is being sung all over the country. St. Philip's Church, B'klyn Passion Week began with a large attendance at the Holy Communion at 2 a.m. Rector Boyd was the celebrant, assisted by Dr. Scott Wood of Pittsburgh, Pa. A large and enthusiastic congregation gathered at 11 a.m. to hear Dr. Wood's message on the purposes and meaning of the cross. He vividly pictured the awful suffering contemplated by our Saviour as He approached Calvary. The music of thosehour was insPIRED with Miss Fannie Lee at the organ. Superintendent Findlay conducted his written test in the Church school. The silence of the large number of children was a splendid indication of their interest. Rector Boyd was the preacher at evening service, which was unusually well attended. Rector Boyd delivered a forceful message on the Great Invitation, and he clearly showed how its acceptance will bring us all to the foot of the cross. Monday at 10:30 a.m. the Healing and 'Preaching Mission began with the Holy Communion and will continue each day this week at 10:30 a.m. and 8 p.m., with Dr. Scott Wood as the missioner. He stated that he is only an agent in the hand of God to lead others into the joys of full and complete health by entire reliance on the gospel. Those present at this first living service were mightily impressed several expressed that they were physically and spiritually strengthened. A Book Well Worth Reading LIBERIA and HER PEOPLE HENRY F.

Down in Texas there must be something in the climate and environment that produces great baseball players, for not only is it true that the majority of the Lincoln are Texans, but leading players on must of the colored teams are from that state. The Lincoln "Texas" ten is composed of, Captain S. Marell; Pryor, the new second baseman; "Highpocket" Hudspeth, Richard and Tom Gee, Dave Brown, Evans, Hodge, Jackman and G. Taylor.

A sorely needed improvement has been made at the Catholic Protectry Oval Despite the cold cloudy weather of Sunday, March 29 about 3,000 fans journeyed to the Catholic Protective Oval to witness the opening of the pre-league season of the Lincoln Giants. Although a double header was scheduled only one game, was played—their opponents being the Bay Ridge nine, which had several players from international and league teams in its lineup. The visitors got a run in the first time and had to run difficulty in maintaining it throughout the game, the final score being 9-3. Both sides used three pitchers—Evans Wickware and Dave Brown represented the Linchings and Bay Ridge had no difficulty in solving their offerings. Scaffold was the only pitcher to travelers for Bay Ridge and allowed only seven hits. Two of these were two-bag- Gerard Williams Is The Only Lincoln Giant On The "Holdout" Roster Gerard Williams Is The Only Lincoln Giant On The "Holdout" Roster With the opening of the Lincoln Giants' baseball season Sunday, March 29, the fact was brought out that Gerald Williams was the only holdout among the veterans retained from last year's team. Williams spent the winter playing in Palm Beach and when he was ready to return to New York it is alleged that he wired James J. Keenan, owner of the Lincoln, for his railroad fare. The money was sent and there was no indication that the peppy shortstop was not going to play until the game on Sunday. He arrived on he ground late and did not uniform but informed Manager Ganso that he would play baseball. After the game he told Mr. Keenan he wanted his release to go to Pittsburgh where he hopes to play for Cinnabee on the Homestead Grays. The other members of the Lincoln were dumbbounded, at this news and are still hoping that Williams will change his mind about quitting the team. Mr Keenan refused to give the release, but stated that聪聪 Smith would play short stop until the matter had been settled.

VALENTINE. (From the N. Y. Telegram and Evening Mail.) One of the most impressive athletic performances seen hereabouts in recent weeks was turned in by Cecil Cooke, the big colored boy who formerly represented Stuyssaye High School, and who is now a student at Syracuse University, in the special 600-yard race at the Knights of Columbus carnival at Madison "Square Garden." Cooke did no win this race. He finished a rather bad second, nearly tern yards behind the flying form of Alan Helfrich, of Penn State College. It has dawned on the athletic sharpness since, however, that the colored spinner, "in spite of being soundly began, within a world of the former world's for the 600-yards distance. It is remembered, too, that Cooke's closing rush cut down such fine runners as Jake Driscoll, of the Boston A. A.; Joe Tjernery and Walter Mulvihill of Holy Cross College, and Ray Robertson, of the Boston A. A., and Vincent Lally, now the national champion at the distance. it is no secret that Tommy Keane, the old fox who conditions the Syracuse athletes, holds high hopes for Cooke's future on the path, if not this year, then later on. Keane, in fact, believes Cooke will follow closely in the footsteps of Charley Reidpath and Allan Woodring, Syracuse's great quarter-miles of other years. Keane knew the minute that he clapped an eye on Cooke that he had a prospect par excellent. "Do you think this boy is going to be another John Taylor?" Tommy was asked by Keane rubbed his chin thoughtfully and answered, "Well, I wouldn't say that, but I do think in a year or two he will be a rattling good quarter miler" Improves Tremendously Rapily. Cooke has come along very much faster than Keane had any idea that he would, as attested by the corking race that he showed, against Helfrich in the hill. Keane was attested by the corking race never been the colored boy's forfeit, and the manner in which he swept through the field in the last lap of the race, in which Helfrich clipped more than a second off of the world's record for 600-yards was something of a surprise to Keane. Keane instructed Cooke to bide his time in the K. C., race to make his bid in the last lap. The former Stuyvesant spinner stayed well behind the pace through the first 400 yards, letting Joe Hilery lead the chase for the flying Helfrich. The Cooke broke loose with a wild sprint that carried him through the field to register one of the most impressive second place performances seen on the boards this winter. Nothing but world's record stepping on the part of Helfrich wold have availed against Tommy Keane's new flier. Keane is working with great care on Cooke, in hopes of making a real star of the former local schoolboy spinner. For one thing, Tommy is teaching Cecil to tone his early-race speed down just a bit. This, together with a smoother action, probably due to increased stamina, has caused not a few of the tracks fans to comment on the similarity of Cooke's style to that of the late John B. Taylor, Pennsylvania's great colored quarter-miler of two decades ago. Neither is it extremely unlikely that Cooke, under the skiffle and patient handling of Tommy Keane, will prove as fine a runner as was Penn's dusky champion.

G. on Saturday night March 28. This organization gave its first track and field meet, together with a basketball game, at the new armory before a crowd of more than 2,000 spectators. The affair was none-the-less entertaining and exciting because it was free, and from the showing of a number of the track stars, the 36th was be capably represented in the outdoor meets this summer. Chairman James A. Farley of the New York State Athletic Commission had been invited, to attend but because of another engagement was unable to do. However, he sent a letter encouraging the regiment in its endeavor. Col. Arthur Little, Captain Alexander C. Garner, Major Jackson, and other leaders of the organization, were present, and the Women's Auxiliary was represented by a full membership. Except for a special 75-yard dash, won by Eric Dawkins in 8-2-5 second all the events were closed to members of the regiment. Company C, of which Charles O. Steadman is captain and Roy Morse is first lieutenant, won Col. Arthur Little bronze trophy for having scored 23 points, the largest number. Company A, headed by Captain Oswald DesVerney and Lieut. D. D. Johnson was second with 17 points. The West, Point detachment was easily-heated in the basketball game score 49.23. Hicks, captain of the Textile, High School team, was the outstanding player but he was ably assisted by Louis Garecia and his other teammates, Johnson, Green and Anderson. The West Pointers were represented by Gray, Carter, Edmunds, Kelly and Childs. SOCIETY'S RENDEZVOUS ENTERTAINMENT EXTRAORDINARY THE NEST CLUB 160 WEST 10TH ST.

The young lady is from New Bedford, Mass. I understand, and studied here in New York City, with the late Mrs. Daisy Tapley. She has a mezzo-soprano voice of considerable range, and with pleasing tone quality. She needs more study and development, but she has made some progress already along right lines. She has grace of carriage and a pleasing stage appearance, with self-possession, articulation, with intelligent direction, and this girl will surely be a singer worth hearing. The accompaniments for Miss Yates were played pleasingly and effectively by Mrs. MaBelle White Williams. Eugene Mars Martin Plays Fine Program In Monthly Recital Eugene Mars Martin Plays Fine Program In Monthly Recital Eugene Mars Martin, violinist, the youthful director of Martin-Smith Music School, Inc., at 139 West 136th street, was the soloist at the mouthy artist recital of that institution on Sunday afternoon, March 29, at 5 It might be interesting to preface this writing by stating that the young musician, not yet arrived at his majority, is a blushing bridegroom, having quietly slipped away a few weeks ago with the young lady of his heart and not, returning until, the knot had been tied which made it his duty to support, love, chersh and provide for her. It was a great surprise to mother, brother, sister, and all of his friends—but it seems to have been a mighty happy happening, if appearance count; for anything. Some of the folks who listened to the program Sunday said the young violinist displays a richness and ripeness of art not heretofore apparent. It is true, I think, for there is a greater soul appeal than ever before. Young Martin's technical has always been one of his outstanding choral teratics. His bowing is a fingering precise and authoritative, and these qualities are in evidence even in the steadiest passages. But he has no always had "soul," there has always been evidences of experimental sympathy with his trefoil. Now, however, this lack is not so apparent. The program opened with the Lalo Symphonie Espagnole (three movements—allegro, andante and rondo); this was followed by brief remarks from Mrs Martin and Mr Douge concerning the school and its appeal to the public for aid in expanding facilities, after Kriste group was wasted. This included the Fancy Variations ala Kreisler; the Dance Dance by Dvorak, also arranged, by Kristefer; Schon-Rosmarine, Tambourin Chinois, and La Gutana, an Arabo-Spanish gypy song. The final number comprised Hubay's Herge Kati and Bazzini's Rondo desultés, but the audience was insatiable and negroed, for more until Mr Martin's willow willingness to expendible, had played a number of pizzicato pieces, such as Sarasate's Zigzagtenre奏 which the admiring group would only identify as the piece beginning with "Z" and "Deep" as arranged for the violin by Coloridge-Taylor. Miss Ernestine Jessie Covington was at the piano and gave her com- petent, sympathetic and almost delightful art freely in support of the The eighteenth annual recital of the school is to be held May 8 at New Star Casino, and Miss Covington is to be the soloist of the occasion, playing two movements from the Saint-Saens' concerto for piano and orchestra. The school management his performance for the appearance Henderson Henderson and his Roeland Orchestra as an extra attraction, together with William II Wiggin and the Greenwich Village Follies Orchestra New Jersey Choir Sings Well For New York Folks A small but appressive audience was present at Solem M. P. Church, 129th Street and Seventh avenue, the Regent Fred A. Cullen, pastor, on Monday night, March 30, the occasion being the appearance of the choir of Mt. Olive Baptist Church. Fast Orange, N. J., under direction and leadership of Wilson Lamb, with Gora Wyman Alexander, his piano. This chore of the tree is conceded to be the best trained body of singers in the University of New York, each understand, being a pupil of Mt. Lamb in his studio in the Metropolitan Building, Main street. Orange, among them are soloists and a number of them have won recognition as geetal and radio artistes. Ohie, Mine Chilton, coloraturist so praised, the first colored singer trained by a colored teacher, to peat in a recital at Aeolian Hall and another. Burgerdene Mason Contrato, will make his metropolitan debut in the same audition on Wednesday, April 8, under Mr. management. The program on Monday night was long and interesting, presenting four of the soloists in groups of songs and the choir in four ensemble numbers two of them have a capella. A six-part chorus "Joshua" by the Russian writer of choral music Moussorely opened the program, and, save for a slight, hesitancy in attack, showed the choir's power in dynamic effect, massed top ebb and development of delicate nuances. "Weeping Star" by Billy Baldwin and Grethel Baldwin* "Sim and Moon" another six-part arrangement. ment were given without accompaniment with splendid effect. As an on-come to the Burleigh number, the choir sang "Mary's Baby," a seven-part chorus, arranged by the late Mr. Malcolm Curtis Burlin. The final of "Mary's Adam" given with splendid spirit and vivacity. The soloist were, Matthew Jackson, who displayed a pleasing organ which be controlled superbly, and who evidenced a thorough familiarity with its resources. His control and phrasing were very good, but there is much room for improvement in his diction, and this applies to the other soloists, as well. Mine, Clatman errng least of all in this respect. Frederick Moss, tenor, gave a group of art songs, but seemed to lack the resonant sonority he usually shows. Another tenor, Willis Bradley, gave a group of oratorio and opera arias by Handel and Puccinil, the latter beng in Italian. This singer is one of the most recent to come into the music scene, a colleague, he has made tremendous work in acquiring the principles of artistic work. The ovation of the evening, however was accorded Mme. Louetta Chatman, final soloist, who gave a Korsakow air and arias from Massenet's Le Cid and Weber's Oberon. She appeared to be hampered a bit in the Russian's song, but, gained flexibility of utterance and freedom of interpretation with the succeeding numbers. The restraint shown in the opening aria, "Weep, weep, how grief worn eyes," the Masson number, was exquisite, and in decided contrast to the colorful volume shown in the Weber song. Mrs Alexander, did not quite attain the usual imprecise standard in her accompanying, giving just a bit too much fortissime in her playing for the soloists, and this was especially noticeable with the tenors. Her technic is comparable and her musical comprehension is unusual. And it is capped with a sympathy all passing. Mr. Lamb's conducting was, as always, authoritative and instructive. Eminent Composer Gives Elaborate Setting To Johnson's "Creation" Eminent Composer Gives Elaborate Setting To Johnson's "Creation" Louis C. Gaillard Louis Grüenberg, one of the best known of the tema derm day composers, who is now in France, has used the words of James Weldon Johnson's poem, "Creation," as lyrics for pretentious musical setting to be rendered by a baritone and orchestra of eight instruments "Creation," as conceived by Mr. Johnson, is the telling of the story of the world's beginning as imagined by a Negro minister but written without recourse to direct It possesses all the native imagery of the race, given with dignity and impressiveness, the words an educated man would write. Mr. Grüenberg, in a letter commenting on the poem, wrote that "Creation" is still, for me, a magnificent poem, in spite of the fact that I concentrated three solid months on the composition of it." Referring to the musical setting which he has made, and which is published by the Universal Edition of Vienna, Austria, Mr Gruenberg said it would take from 15 to 17 minutes for its rendition. Continuing, he wrote. "It is exceedingly difficult, very modern in expression, and expensive to produce I composed the music because the poem gripped me powerfully, and working on it made me the poem gripped me powerfully, and will probably produce it, when material is available. They have asked for it. This last statement indicates that possibly within the next musical season or so, New York music lovers will have an opportunity to pass judgment on the work."

C.-The Howard University Players presented "The Servant in the House," by Charles Rann Kennedy, Friday evening, March 27 at 8:30 o'clock, in Rankin Memorial Chapel. "This well-balanced play, with its deep human appeal, its sharp contrast in character, and its swift movement toward a great climax, offered a great chance to the splendid cast for character portrayal. The Most Reverend, the Lord Bishop of Launchshire was played by Darius Dumas, the Virge, the Rev William Smith, played by Frederick French, Margaret Fletcher took the part of Annette; and Larvine Harper, the part of Mary. The comedy was furnished by Charles Williams, who was in the role of Robert, the swinger, and J Macklum, who took the part of Rogers, the page boy while Maryan Cos, took the part of Manson, the servant.

There remains but one thing then, Education by Radio. A survey compiled January 1, 1925, will show the work being accomplished by radio in the field of education. Fifty-three universities broadcast a total of 450 lectures. There were ninety-seven stations owned and operated by educational institutions. Radio fans all over the country are able to hear lectures broadcasted from the leading universities.

When, the wiring of a set, is finished, it is best to test the filament circuit before the tubes are put in their sockets. This will often save you from burning out tubes, should the set he wired wrongly. The test is simplicity itself. A voltmeter is placed momentarily across the filament leads of the sockets. By touching the terminals for only an instant, the voltmeter will not short circuit, the battery or be injured if a reading is shown which is not volts or less, the filament circuit is corrected. If, however, a reading is shown which is more than the ordinary filament voltage, then you will know that something is wrong, and the circuit should be looked over to ascertain the trouble. This simple test will often save you money and tubes. Brilliance of tubes is a poor indicator of their operating points. The rheostat should be turned down to the point where it begins to cut down the signal strength. Burning the tubes too brightly sohrents the life of them. It is unnecessary to burn the tubes too highly, and saves the battery as there is less of a drainage.

If they are awake they will obey you-for a second. Tell your child that if he does not do so straightway you will ure-umm. Get cross. Give orders. All this will profit you nothing for like the sea which obeys the laws of its own being so do the children obey what of life and they must breathe if they were dead. And they but breathe if they MUST through improper ones, for breathe they will. All the world cannot stop them with words, for the instinct of self, preservation is insistent. So if you find that some little trick of breathing or behaving does not suit you as proud parents, do not waste time commanding, but take the child to one who can tell you what is wrong and correct that imperfection. Do not be that to toulous or adenoids need attention. It may be that some growth in the nose prevents proper breathing. For-poor posture there may be some underlying condition: present which you would grieve to allow develop. Sometimes such things come before a serious bone disease. It may be however a simple case of starvation which causes the poor posture. Oh yes! "Tis true 'tis pity" that many a little child is being starved. Not to death of course, but starved out of perfect life. Knowledge will help you to correct the trouble. Fleet St. Memorial A. M. E.

Recently there has been developed in the South the well-founded conviction that cooperation is the method by which the racial groups here in America will achieve a better life and larger mutual appreciation. For five years the Commission on Influencing cooperation, composed of influential white and black leaders, worked systematically to discover in each community white and colored leaders who would accept conference and cooperation as a method of dealing with common interests. The response to this effort has been encouraging. Public officials in most instances have been sympathetic. The most influential church have given wholehearted supporter. Church bodies given unqualified approval. Especially encouraging is the of cooperation between white and colored women. Hundreds of interracial committees are now in existence. Showly the idea is spreading. It works. Never before were there so many white and Negro men and women sincerely seeking to understand their common life and through common effect, which the Southern church, chests of Richmond, Norfolk, Atlanta, Savannah and Louisville include arms for the support of this work. Some of the great Southern church boards, are also giving it financial support. The most important result of this method is the better interracial attitude engendered as a by-product in work has been in the sure way that appreciation and sympathy which alone can dispense indifference and suspicion.

Cooper, who left for the national conference Tuesday, Rev. Cooper's sermon, his theme for the sermon, "Hold Fast." His text was taken from 1 Thessalonians 1521, "Prove all things, hold fast that which is good." In the evening his subject was "Keep the spiritual fires burning, from the text Thessalonians 5:19, "Quench not The Spirit." Both sermons were admonitions to a continuation of choosing the proper paths with the Master. Many alliances tend to attract us from the path that Jesus trod, but we must be reminded that there is a way that seethm right unto man, but the end thereof is death. The spiritual fires must be kept burning on the altars of our hearts to lead us in the path of righteousness. The Sunday school session was in inspiration was attended by an unusual large number considering the unpleasant weather. Mrs. E. Cooper assisted Mrs. Carrie Harrison, president of Epworth League, in conducting an interesting song service at 7 a.m. The choir is making preparations for the Sunday School, the Sunday April 19, and are giving way to the Sunday school to have its exercises on Easter Sunday evening.

Church Dr. Henry Hugh Proctor spoke Sunday morning on "The Fragments of the Feast," and drew three lessons from the marvelous feast in the wilderness, when Jesus fed many thousands with the five loaves and two fishes. At the evening time he spoke on "The Dream of the Son of Man," which was of a perfect world. In the working out of a perfect civilization two things must be considered: the law of God and the doing of the will of God. The kingdom, he held, had already been established on the earth; it remained for the will of God to be done. As each one did the will of God he entered the kingdom, set up, when authority was given unto Jesus at his ascension to the throne of power. Among the visitors of the day were Rev.

The only semblance of a thrill came in the seventh round when Hicks uncorked a right to the chin that dropped the Italian to his hands and knees, although he was up again before the count doubled to over him.
