Those poor, deluded creatures, who are given to the wild pursuit of the "numbers" will o' the wisp, were given that should prove to be a salutary lesson one day last week when the Cleaning House daily report showed that the number on which the players should collect was "227". And it appears that there were quite a number who, in some way or other, had been led to play that particular number. But it must be set, down that these players were doomed to displacement for before they could re- relate on their investment; there had come another report, alleging that the correct number was "202"!
Numbers Were mixed Up.
What had happened was, that the welded machinery of the shrewd and unscrupulous men who do the banking for the "numbers" game was functioning in good order, and took immediate advantage of a distractency in printed announcements of the Clearing House figures. There were all of plays made on "20" and here were few, if any, on "20" in regardless of what was the correct report, "20" was decided upon as the number on which to "pay off". Conjectures of all sorts are rife, of course, and these include "fafooted charges" that certain men in the employ of those public mediums which are rated "20" as the animal, had been bribed to make a change in the digits which would confuse the simulation. This would confuse the explanations that the mistake one, due only to, some operators or proof readers, carelessness.
No Pay On Right Number.
But whatever the real reason, the tax remains that according to the years posted on the Clearing House building, and printed in the papers there are ordinarily considered as "baked" by the bankers, the people up there money on ZZT were settled in the rate of $60 a dime, or $50 a dime.
And They Were Not Paid
And They Were Not Paid.
For the bankers took advantage of the manup and repudiated the number who would have hit them the heavier, although the correct number was easy of verification, and it was possible for the poor suckers who saved a win to find out that they been killed, there was nothing they could do.
They Need The Money.
The portable truth is that the man
the people who had that "227"

Before a crowd of more than 40,000 people Harry Will walked the week Weinert in one of the feature bouts for the Italian Hospital Fund at the Polo Grounds Thursday night. J. Willis showed a return to his best form and looked and acted the part of champion all the way. While, Weinert, on the oter hand, seemed afraid from the time he entered the ring and was beaten with the first blow. He was knocked down in the first round, he was knocked out with a hard left to the stomach and a right cross to the point of the chin at the opening of the second. Wills and Weinert's seconds had to assist him to his corner. The Brown Panther, whose usual weight is 220 pounds was down to 213 pounds and looked like a bronze statue as he climbed into the ring. His perfect physical condition showed in his foot work which was faster than his right foot, more. The he must have been worn before hand hitting in the clinches, for he was especially careful to break clean and did not use any rough tacques whatever. His style in this regard was in marked contrast to that of Harry Greb, who fought Mickey Walker in the other feature bout. Greb did every thing but kick Walker and even knocked the refree down. But despite efforts to be fair, many hoops were heard when he knocked Weinert down in the first round. At the end of the second bout, he him a big ovation, especially the large number of colored fans in the bleachers.
For his five minutes work in heating Weinert he received 15 percent of the gross receipts, which amounted to $350,000—at first he was supposed to get 20 percent but he donated vountarily 5 percent of his money to the Hospital Fund. The Wills is unquestionably the best heavyweight in New York State, it is the opinion of many fight fans that the State Boxing Commission should officially reconcile him as the heavyweight champion.

Tragic Death Of Harlem Musician Laid To "Hooch"
Attended Rehearsal; Then Went Home—Felt Bad, Asked For Remedy
TOLD WIFE HE HAD TAKEN HIS LAST DRINK—HE HAD
Died In Chair Before Wife Could Aid Him Or Get A Doctor To Attend Him
Tragedy stalking in the shadow of Hastings school is shown more every year as the days go by, the renialless wife and poisonous bloch occupy the wife and poisonous bloch occupy the man system is clearly shown in the death of one of the race's prominent figures in musical entertainment and thespian circles. If reports freely circulated are authentic.
The musician referred to, after attending a rehearsal of the musical organization with which he was affiliated, went home. But before he got home he drank some of this hoboc, then clearly established, according to the reports, as to where he got it. But when he had reached home he felt ill effects from the drink, and called his wife to bring him some sort of remedy that might afford relief.
World Drink No More
Unaware of what caused his trouble, the wife sought an explanation from him. He told her he had taken a drink.
He told her also that never again would he take a drink of this Harlem hooch. And this was a promise that will not be broken.
For before the wife could administer a remedy of any sort, before she could summon to her assistance the expert knowledge of the family physician, the gifted and talented man had succeeded to the fatal effects of the vile concoction which he had been foolish enough to imbibe, and his spirit had fled its mortal shell.
In the minute or two that elapsed between the time she left him to seek some remedial agent and her return to his side with a few drops of aromatic spirits of amonia, or some other stimulating remedy, death had set its seal upon his brow, and the wife had become a widow.
Its A True Story.
This is not a made up story, more's the pity, but, lacking the names only, is a brief, bold story of the tragedy that has this week visited a Harlem home, taking away its head, and taking from a large circle of friends and associates a talented and brilliant comrade.
And still the bootlegging hooch hounds are carrying on their nifarious activities with bold and curbed brazierness, opening new places as the paper circles take hold of the old joint. It is patient to all observers that from the manner of their operations the bootlegging gentry must have some kind of secret and effective manner of curbing the law officials and so proscripting their activities as to make them of no avail.
Federal prohibition officials, including the judges and prosecutors, have

Lynching Record For First Shows Increase Over Sa
Turskegee Institute, Ala.—The semi-annual statement concerning the number on lynchings occurring in the United States, issued from compilations made by the Department of Records and Research of Turtlegee Institute, shows that there were nine lynchings during the first six months of 1925, as compared with five during the same period of 1924.
But the record is six less than the fifteen which occurred in the first six
Sweeping changes made by Bishop W. H. Heard of Philadelphia in the A. M. E. Church pastorates and presiding elderships of the New York Conference, have not brought peaceful adjustments of personal differences and enmities, an adjustment vitally essential to the health and prosperity of the church, if reports concerning the state of affairs in the Brooklyn congregation are founded in fact.
A brief summary of the changes made by, the慈abile prelate at the last annual conference, held in May last past, shows that the Rev. M. W. Thinton, whose pastorate at Bethel Church, New York City, was stormy from beginning, to end, was made presiding elder of the Long Island District, succeeding the Rev. C. P. Coles, who was sent to the pastorate of Bethel Church, Brooklyn, which church is, in the district supervised by Dr. Thinton.
Does Not Like Cole's
And ever since Dr. Coles had been alleged to be mixed up in the publication of a statement which charged Thornton with being in the pulpit under influence of alleged intoxicants, Thornton has had little of the feeling of christian friendship or brotherly love for Coles. Now the report is that when Thornton is given to Bethel Church, Brooklyn, to hold his first quarterly conference, he failed to resist, speak or take personal, contact with the mayday devout of the church Dr. Coles.
It is reported by responsible member of Bettel Church, Brooklyn, that Dr. Coles is well liked by the majority of the congregation and that they are rallying to his support in the ef- to put Bettel out of the slough of despair that he has to have fallen into under the pasture of former shepherd. But it is also told there is a group of malcontents, small and insignificant, or large and important, according to the bias of your informant, which declares the Coles is too proud, thinks too much of himself, supplies, and "stuck up" and does not trust to mute with common people, and they just don't want him as pastor.
Secret Caucusings
And this group it is said, has been holding secret meetings caucusing among themselves in an effort to devise some plan looking to the oversee of Pastor Coles. And it is whispered around, not very quietly, either, that the Elder Thomas in is sympathy in group, and it is even alleged that he goes over to Brooklyn under cover of darkness and lent the weight of his advice and the cunning of his suggestions to these anti-Coles caucuses.
Those members of Bethel who are loyal to supporting the administration of Da Coles proclaim loudly to all the world that its going to stay and do-such work in building up Bethel as to confound and confuse all its opponents.
Bridge Street Bars Doors
They point to Bridge Street Church, the biggest and most influential church in the Long Island District, with the Rev. Dr. Edward E. Tylier as pastor, and cite action taken by this church as an index to show how presiding Elder Thornton is regarded by other groups Bridge Church, they say, has declared that Thornton will not be allowed to comb into that church and hold quarterly conference, and this is given substance by the fact that on Sunday, June 21, Dr. Tylier, after preaching that "no minister should be willing to lead his people or call himself a herald, of God unless his life rings true with all that is right," made an announcement to the effect that the quarterly meeting and conference would be postponed until Bishop Heard had returned from California because he was in attendance upon the Bishop's Council of the A. M. F. Church.
The Bishop's Council adjourned Monday, June 29, and it is thought the bishop will be in Brooklyn within a few days to attempt to straighten out the tangle.
months of 1923, and twenty-one less than the thirty recorded January 1 to June 30, 1922. The nine victims were all Negroes, four of whom were charged with murder; two with rape, one with attacking a woman, and one with attacking a child. Mississippi was the scene of three lynchings, and one each was committed in Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana; Utah and Virginia.
Los Angeles, Calif.—The *Bishops* Council of the African Methodist Episcopal Church met at the First A. M. E. Church, 8th and Towne avenue, this city, Rev. W. D. Miller, pastor, on Saturday, Sunday and Monday, June 27, 28, and 29 in its regular mid-summer seagion.
There were present Bishops H. B. Parks, W. H. Heard, Albert John, Robinson, R. W. B. Wicketen, J. Johnston, W. A. Fourier, A. J. Carey, W. T. Vernon, R. C. Ranom, and A. L. Gaines, Bishops J. S.

The general officers present were D. M. Baxter, business manager of the A. M. E. Book Concern, Richard R. Wrighter, Christian Secretary John R. Hawkins, financial secretary; E. H. Colt, missionary secretary and Ira T. Brygall manager of the Sunday school Union.
A welcome reception was given by the citizens of Los Angeles, welcome addresses being made by Rev. A. M. Ward, presiding elder of the North California Conference. Assemblyman F. M. Roberts, Rev. H. W., Prod. Mrs. Betty Lewis, Mrs. Charlotte Bass, Atty. W. O Tyler, and Wallace A. Clark. Bishop W. H. Heard responded.
Bishop A. J. Carey preached the annual sermon Memorial exercises were held for Bishop W. D. Chappelle who died in Columbia, S. C. John. Important matters come up before the bishop when the appointment of a pastor for Bishop Chappelle over the Seventh Episcopal District; the appointment of a president of the Sunday School Union Board and approval of the project for the erection of a $200,000 Book Concern building in Philadelphia.
The bishops made reports of their work showing the church in a healthful condition. Last year $357,744.28 Dollar Money was collected, the largest amount being collected by Bishop J. S. Flipper $40,278.85 The increase of Dollar Money over last year was $6,646.22, a marked increase for the first year of the quadrennium. Reports of the various general officers were also made. The missionary secretary reported that the new church, located in downtown, Africa is nearing completion, and is soon to be dedicated.

Greensboro Citizens Approve Dr. Bluford As New A. & T. President
---
Greensboro, N. C.-At a banquet given at the home of T. W. Wallace on Thursday evening, July 21, in honors of Dr. F. D. Bluford, president of O. C. College, representative citizens of Greensboro, attendance, expresses satisfaction in the form of Mr. Bluford as the successor Jo, of the Dr. James B. Dudley.
The spacious living room and dining room of Mr. Wallace were converted into one large banquet hall, which was so softly illuminated with pale blue lights, casting their delicate over the zoom that was festooned with glittering glaze & T. colors, and artistically decorated with yellow roses and ferns, transforming the place into one veritable garden of beauty and elegance. As the guests arrived, they were greeted by the host and hostess, and presented with souvenirs of yellow roses and ferns. Mr. Wallace acted as toastmaster, during which time delicate courses of punch, grape fruit chicken salad, ice cream, after dinner mints and salatines were served.
The speaking began with an eloquent presentation address by Dr Frank Trigg, president of Bennett College, in which he spoke of the development of the A. & T. College as being one of the three greatest institutions for Negroes in this country. He mentioned his pleasant associations with the college and Dr. Bluford and his idea of Mr. Bluford's fitness for the position. In response to this, President Bluford thanked Mr. Wallace for his hospitality and in a brief manner, outlined some of the things he has planned to do toward the continued development of the college, after stressing particularly the greatness of more intelligent Negro citizenship. Mr. Bluford stated that he wanted to make the A. & T. College second to no other institution of its kind in America, and conclusively said that in accepting this responsibility, he had done so with no thought of prominence or esteem, but mainly with the view of contributing the largest possible service to the Negro youth of North Carolina and America.
Dr. D. C. Suggs, late president of Livingstone College, Salisbury stated that because of his interest in educational opportunities for his group and because of his respect for Mr. Bluford's ability and fitness for the presidency of the college, he willingly pledged support to its present administration. "Addresses by Professor C M. Epps of Greenville and Dr. Chas H. Moore of this city; were somewhat similar in tone. In that they both stated a bit of the background of the institution; Dr. Moore said he was anxious for Mr. Bluford to make good, while Mr. Epps said that the president not only had his support for 1925, but if he made good, he would be assured even stronger favor in 1926 and on.
Professor E. E. Curtigrut, principal of the High Point Normal School promised Mr. Bluford that he could depend on the graduates of High Point Normal School as feeders for his college department. Like sentiment was expressed by Berry O'Kelly of Method, who appealed to the students to encourage the graduates of the high schools of the state to enter A & T College and help develop its college department, its standard to that of "A" grade "For as President Bluford has wisely said," stated Mr. O'Kelly, "An 'A' grade college cannot be had merely through legislative enactment. It requires students of college grade, and I trust the high schools of the state will realize this fact and give their aid in developing A & T College, which is destined to give to the youth in North Carolina the kind of education that suitfully deserves" Lawyer Mitchell Greenshor confirmed the speeches of the other gentlemen that Mr Bluford was his choice
Dr Gilmer was convincing in saying that he considered Mr Bluford to be a cagable and strong man, a quiet and reserved gentleman and a disciplinous administrator; he reposed implicit faith in Mr Bluford's ability. Among other prominent citizens of Greensboro present were: Dr A. M Riyera, Dr S. P Sebastian, Dr. G. C Simkins, Dr B. W Barnes, Pees F. W Kace, Prof G. E. Nelson, Prof D. Wace, Gerard Johnson, J H McConnell, Alexander and John M Avey, representing the N C Mutual of Durham

She is Easter Frances Hill of Augustus, Md. According to engineer Albert B. Haller the cars probably would have been derailed and thrown fifty feet down the mountainside if the girl had not flagged the train.
A heavy rainstorm had wrought havoc in the district on the night pigeonious, blowing trees down all over the mountainside. The little girl is said to have been going from her house to neighbor's when she saw the tree be blowing across the railroad track. Then she came coming, said to have been rummaging at the rate of fifty miles an hour. She got out on the track and began waving her red bonnet. Luckily the engineer saw her in time to slow down and stop before the train reached her.

He took the receipt of the 10th, Smith gave the address of the place where Miss Posey was to work. He then took a piece of paper and proceeded to bring the girl luck. He asked her how many were in the family and was told that there was seven. He took a piece of alice and cut it into seven strips, put the money and the paper with it and sewed the whole paper together. He fold the unsuspecting girl like she should have the coffin on the table immediately the next day. He gave her his address for future reference and departed.
Miss Fosey awoke the next day and went to the silk coffin, opened it, but found no money. The strain of paper had some writing on it. The writing said, "Believe in your God and not in man." Don't be a fool again. Let this be a lesson for you forever and BE-WARE...R. S. K. K. Klan." She then proceeded down-to-the address of the place where she was supposed to; work. 2273 Broadway was not the place Smith claimed. it to be, and they had no name of name of Smith who was working for: the name of Smith who was working for: the address of Miss Fosey went to: the managed. Miss Fosey as his residence; saw the name of the person who was looking for and rang the belt. But the man who answered was not the Smith she was looking for. Police of the 123d street station are working in the case.
This is not the first time the attention of the 'public' has been called to the working of Smith. Take heed. There are plenty of agehics who are 'reliable and do not work on their clients.' If you want employment go to an employment agency. Don't trust the strangers who come around. They will get you a job. They are only looking for your money. Profit by the experience of others.
A Basic Principle
Denied By "Y" Waiter
A Basic Principle
Denied By "Y" Waiter
Editor of The Age:
Being thirsty I went to the Y. M. C. A.
to give a drink of water. Venturing down
stairs, I found the regular drinking
fountain empty, so I sauntered over to
the restaurant counter,
"Will you please give me drink of
water?" I asked.
"You are supposed, to get water over to the drinking fountain," was the sharp reply.
"That happens to be empty just now," I answered.
"Well, water is, only, served, with meal! was the quick, and cure-reply, customers-eating, looked at, me-with sympathy, others locked at the kwater in dugrust.
Not only was this waister's conduct wrong from a business standpoint, but it was ethically wrong. In refusing me water merely because I was not eating a meal he was acting just contrary to the principles and purposes on which the "I" was founded.
Their basic principle is service; but this was downright discontent. Some this was only a water, the store if did not matter, the store does not count considerably, the spirit of organization is not merely shown in the exercise's conduct, but is evident in the actions of every employee or member, no matter how magnificent his position may be.
Many Negroes on looking at the economic and educational achievements of the group are apt to get high motions of themselves. They are liable to get concipient and intolerable. In this mad rush for material gains, they are apt to lose the more cultural and finer phases of life, instead of being a polished and refined man, to sink into the abyss of greed and abasement. That day will be a sad one for the life. Again the waiter's conduct was wrong from a business standpoint. Being thirsty, suppose if he had handed me a glass of cool water, and did so in a pleasant manner and with a pleasing count enance, my impressions of the "Y" restaurant would have been favorable and anytime I needed lunch probably would have gone there. In other words, he was winning a customer, a supporter of department. But he treated me under impressions of the cafeteria are bound to be not so favorable. Although the "Y" had lost a customer, yet it has one who is not so favorably inclined toward that phase of its activities.
I wish to call the attention of the people to this episode for I note that in the past I have carded those polished and cultural phases which are true indices of racial progress.

Police Dept. Has Many Cases As An Aftermath of 4th
Police Dept. Has Many Cases As An Aftermath of 4th
The aftermath of the Glorious Fourth was evident Sunday in Harlem in the form of various accidents and offences committed by members of both races.
Eugene Smith, 38, was sent to the Harlem Hospital for treatment for multiple lacerations of the scalp, which he received in an altercation with George Slyvester who lived in the same house with him. He was attended by Dr. Goldberg. In July, 1942, a 16-year old girl, was found in an apartment at 250 West 135th street and taken to the 16th police station, where she was attended by Dr. Goldberg. Again the Harlem Hospital, but showed no signs of apparent illness. She was escorted to her home at 154 West 133rd street by Policeman O'Brien of the West 135th street station
Luther Jordan, 25, 408 St. Nicholas avenue, engaged in a man with an unknown man at 166 St. Nicholas avenue, sent to the Harlem Hospital suffering with lacerations of the scalp and right hand. He was attended by Dr. Veprovasky and went home
16th Precinct Cop Gets Gay At Far Rockaway; Judge Calls Him To Task
Policeman Frederick A Christ, attached to the 16th Precinct, may have to appear on charges before Police Commissioner Enright as a result of his action Wednesday afternoon, July 1, when he arrested Luther Fultz, colored, of 204 East 80th street, preferring a charge of disrely conduct against Fultz. The arrest was made at Beach 59th Street, Long Island, the policeman charging that Fultz had backed his automobile into Christ's car, and that when remonstrated with Fultz became abusive.
But Fultz told a different story, and his account was ceroberated by several witnesses. Fultz told magistrate Conway that his machine was stalled and that Christ drove by and skied stalled the car. The policeman then got out of his car, walked back and open d the door of the machine, pulled the colored man out of the machine. Fultz did not submit peaceably to this high-handed proceeding, and when he retaliated, Christ made to draw his gun.
Then Fultz took the weapon away from the officer, and later when he met Mounted Policeman Ludwig of the Rockaway Precinct, the colored man turned the gun over to him, with an explanation as to how he had gotten it. When this was brought out in court, Maggie Mackenzie outlawed the case against Fultz, but ordered a transcript of the testimony sent to Commissioner Enright

On July 18 the Refuge Church of Christ, located at 56 West 133rd street, will begin a two weeks' celebration of the sixth anniversary, prominent minister tera of other denominations will speak each night during the celebration. The Refuge Church of Christ has made one of the most rapid growths of any church in New York. It was founded in 1919 by Elder Robert C. Lawson from open air meetings he had been conducting in the streets of Harlem. The membership grew until they were able to rent a private house for meeting purposes. Then two and later another house was added, being remodeled into one. These three houses have been: since purchased and are valued at $0,000. There is a mortgage of $32,000 on the property which is gradually being reduced.
Elder Lawson comes from Columbus, Ohio, where he founded and pastored a church for seven years. He is vitally interested in, in all forms of, community work and is a power for, good in his neighborhood. Eighteen months ago he was given a leave of absence to visit Europe and the Holy Land. A result of this trip he has recently published a book on "The Anthropology of Jesus, copies of which may be secured through The Age or by writing Elder Lawson's West 133rd street. Records of the Refuge Church show that Elder Lawson has baptized 4000 people in six years and has baptized the membership to more, have, and thousand. This church also claims the membership of being the first Harlem church to duct noonay services tid; services each evening of the week.

finging line, but 'oil little master, of
bunching blows to - better blows,
was what put the Bashack to the Bashack.
Cadore was pounded for thirteen hits, while Nutall was fowled for ten.
Field Manager Jack Warshop, the Indian underhand expert, opened the same sample case he has been using for years. His uneasy display was an open book to the Bacharachs, who attacked him for fourteen hits. The little Indian war too good in the pinches, however, leaving enough on the bases in every innight to start a convention. Clark and Roberta, who did their best to fetch the colored bunch an even break, held the Rosnerites to seven. Hits. Clark started it, but was replaced by Roberts after walking the first two batters who faced him. Roberts labored under the impression that nearly every man in the Bushwick lineup was Babe Ruth, giving out just six passes.
The Woodhynen gang-clinched its second verdict in the first inning taking the field with a five-run lead in the second inning. Pee Wee Dean who had polled out a home run in the early fuss, drew a pass. Ching 'Boy Lai joined Dean a moment later, another base on ball being handed out. Clark 'then shuffled to the showers and Roberts branched to the hinter... Roberts, evidently a believer in all things, good or bad, coming in threes, waked Joe Pelloski, filling Roberts first good offering the nose and whecked it for the base bringing in Dean Lal and, Peploski, Captain Joe Weiss's shots and was dusted off. Spalding and Weiss then pulled a double steal, the former scoring. The venerable Frédric Hohman singled, scoring Weiss.
The Bacharachs only serious threat came in the fourth frame, when Warbhorn forgot, himself and allowed his tormentors four hits in a row. John Henry Lloyd, who was playing ball long before Al Jolson sang his first mammy song, faced out a single: Reid duplicated John Henry's sake, the latter going on to bubble scoring Lloyd and Reid Gatweed also, soaked one for a pair of sacks, scoring Young
The mighty Ruth generally has a good day in the manufacturing, of home runs whenever he catches six hot dogs and drinks two bottles of pop before the game. A reliable source of information has it that Dean did not eat a thing for at least two hours before yesterday's first game. Yet Pee Wee stepped jauntily into plate in the first inning and knocked Nuttall's first pitch into a cabbage nail in a back field behind the right-field fence. Further frankier vendor the park turned pale when Dean gave the ball that long rides such riding have a bad effect on the weenie market.
A careful grouping of hits gave the Bushwicks another point in the second session. Things hummed along smoothly until the fifth frame, when Weiss woke up everybody: by making a great fielding play. Young lifted a crazy looping fly back of second base, which looked as if it was going to drown for a base hit. Weiss nailed the ball while running at full speed, grabbing it with his gloved hand as his back was turned to the plate.
The Atlantic City outfit finally broke into the scoring column in the seventh inning, getting one tally. Besides being noted for salt water taffy, Atlantic City is also famous, for a ball team which just jotzes on Gearlson-finished Lundy singled, went to third on Lloyd's double and crossed the plate when Young grounded to Penlocki
They battled on even terms until the twelfth innings, when the Bacharachs thought they settled it by scoring once. The Buschwinger came right back, however, and froze the store again. The Jersevites had another happy thought in the thirteenth, taking once. The Rosnerites came back with two however, and it was all over but the exit match Dean singled through short and even around the base, and when Peppo doubled to left, Spalding was purposely passed. Weiss then singled scoring Peppo with the winning point. The scores

BATTLING SIKI TO FIGHT AT OPENING OF ROCKAWAY BEACH ARENA, JULY 9
Rockaway Beach, where many a great fight was staged in the past, will again take its place with the flaring fistic centres when the Rockaway Beach Arena in Steeplechase Park opens its doors Friday night with Battling Ski, former world's light-heavyweight title holder, facing the aggressive Brooklynite, Dave Rosenberg, in the main attraction of 12 rounds.

William Brown Wins In N. J. Tennis Tournament
Asbury Park, N. J.-William Brown of Hackensack fought his way through a strong field and captured the men's singles event in the third annual class "B." tennis tournament of the New Jersey State Championship, one of which were played on the Asbury Park Tennis Club courts July 4.
Miss Gladys Jameson of Trenton won the ladies singles; C. Henry and C. Henry won Merrill doubles; and C. Henry and M. Henry won the mixed doubles.
Brown drew a bye in the first round and teen defeated S. Williams. Burrell and Lawton in the succeeding rounds. Clinton Henry, a nineteen year old Brown University freshman, was in the opposite half of the draw and upset the dope in the first round by eliminating Mifflin Gibbs,
the late Richard Henry. He won from Birmingham by default, and disposed of Darley in straight sets, in the semi finals. He had a narrow win in the final and waded a strong light in the deciding set. The youngest speedy drives were too much for the doctor and the lobe the third set 6-2. The pals brought out two styles of play: Brown depending on his adequate placement, son, the sidelines and short, short, short, as the net, while Henry did his forehand drive with top spin. Henry gained the lead in the first set, ppt. Brown, steadily increasing. Heaped up on skill, service, and run out the set. The second was a pillion of the first, with Brown pulling from 4-1 to take the set at 5-3. Brown easily took the third set. However, it is predicted that Henry will be a dangerous fictor in metropolitan tennis, circles, as soon as he has gained more experience.
Teacher-Training Class Organized At Hampton
By WM. ANTHONY. ABRY
Hampton, Va. - Under the leadership of Miss Mabel Currie, associate professor of education, Teachers' College, Columbia University, who has been giving a course 'in the Hampton Institute Summer School' on teacher-training; there has been formed a 'Teach-training Club' with the following officers: President, Miss Mary E. Foster, Montgomery, Ala.; vice president, Rebecca J. Jordan, Jackson Tenn.; secretary, Miss Beatrice Beaumont, Columbia S. C.; corresponding secretary, M. J. Foster, Monroe, La.; and treasurer, Mrs. Margaret McCuno; Chezapake, Va.
This teacher-training group includes 40 men and women, from 12 States. Nine members hold the bachelor's degree from Fisk; Howard, At, nt and other colleges, and 16 are, graduates of normal schools. The group includes 23 training teachers, in normal schools; 12 Jeanes supervising teachers; 9 county and parish training school principals, and 2-principals of city schools.
Leo M. Favoy, field agent of the General Education Board, recently spoke to the members of this club and their friends, on "Some Outstanding Developments of Negro Education." Mr. Favoy declared that the struggles of enterprising colored teachers, both: men and woman, had excited the interest and admiration of people both North and South. There are many white superintendents in the school who are facing squately the problem of overcrowding in black schools. These men want to avoid the mistakes that have often been made in building up white schools.
A Mississippi Effort.
Mr Favrot told the story of P. F. Williams, superintendent of schools, for Cahoom County, Miss. In this county there are some 6,000 Negro farmers and only 320 white farmers. In the county practically all of the land belongs to the white people. Up to three or four years ago little had been done to establish an adequate system of Negro schools. When Mr. Williams became county superintendent he began to "think on" the problem of Negro education. He worked out a plan based upon the needs of the people. Then began the big take-away program, the white landlords that Negro education pays in a large way. He succeeded in developing a plan for Negro education which enlisted the co-operation of white and colored people. The present plan calls for the establishment of 16 districts in which there will be junior or intermediate schools which will teach the work of the elementary grades as well as agriculture, and home economics. Cahoom County is also doing health work under approved plans. The county has farm
Jackson Davis's of Richmond, Va., field agent of the General Education Board, stated that in 10 years' life colored school population had increased 2 per cent, while the number of colored teachers had increased 311 per cent. The radio had dropped from 1 teacher to 67 pupils down to 1 teacher to 50 pupils. Mr. Davis stated that South Carolina during the junior school year has built B2 Rosenwald building. Most of the schools built during this year are schools of four copies or more in a single year. South Carolina has added 300 more classrooms for colored children. "It'll the past 10 years, some 1,000 to 1,200 classrooms for colored children have been added each year," said Mr. Davis. "We need conservatively 8,000 more Negro teachers each year. The most surprising news is, this The Florida Legislature, before it adjourned, recently passed a bill which appropriated $40,000 for the State college for colored youth as 'Talahassee.'"
Patterson: N. J.

LAW ENFORCEMENT CRIPPLED
Emory R. Buckner, the new United States Attorney, for the Southern District of New York, has discovered what a good many of his predecessors had to contend with, that the Federal machinery for the trial and conviction of offenders against the People of the United States is antiquated and inadequate to the demands of the present day. In his talk to the members of the Rotary Club of New York, at their Independence Day luncheon, he called for a new declaration of independence. He urged that for one thing the members should oppose increasing Federal control of those things that should be done by the local government. Limiting the national government to things purely national would give it a big enough job.
The vast amount of work that is set before the Federal courts and their prosecutors is already hampered by the system handed down from a century and more of precedents and the parsimony exercised in appropriations for the payment of legal assistants and the furnishing of modern equipment. A government that can spend millions on battleships and good roads, will refuse the few thousands needed to increase the force of typists or pay the market rate for legal ability to try government cases. There are not even enough judges provided, to hear the cases that demand a hearing and trial.
HAITIAN EDITORS IMPRISONED. A Haitian writer who flatly contradicts the rosy views presented by former Representative Rodenberg in the Christian Science Monitor a few weeks ago, takes particular exception to the statement that the Haitian people are happier and enjoy more liberty under the American administration. To show the glaring absurdity of such a statement, he cited the fact that since 1922 eighteen journalists have been arrested and thrown into prison. He gave the names of these martyrs to the cause of liberty and the journals that they represented as follows: Rev. Auguste Albert and E. Pauld, of L'Opinion Nationale; F. Chauvet, Duvignaud, S. Willard, of the Nouvelliste; E. Pouget, Clement Juste, F. Vincent, D. Heurtelou, of the Poste; Jolibois Fils, G. Petit, O. Savain, P. Lemare, O. Duplessy, E. Guerin, A. Pierre-Pau, A. Simeon, A. Charment, of the Courrier Haitien.
The result of this petty policy, that fails to realize the volume of Federal litigation that originated in this district, is that cases linger on the court calendars for years before they are reached for trial, giving many offenders a chance to escape paying the penalty of their crimes-by reason of the disappearance by death or removal of important witnesses. Prosecutors and their assistants become discouraged by reason of the obstacles thrown in their way, strive to work under difficulties and finally resign with disgust at the parsimony of a government that so hampers the execution of its laws.
The offences for which these newspaper writers were imprisoned were curious, most of the charges seeming of a trivial nature or trumped up as pretexts for curtailing their liberty. For instance, F. Vincent, manager of the Poste, was charged with having published false information, by having announced after the Government papers, that vessels from the American fleet, were maneuvering in the harbor of Gonaives. Mr. Pouget was imprisoned for having published an extract concerning Charles XII of Sweden, it being charged that the President Borno of Haiti was aimed at in the article.
Concerning prohibition, Mr. Buckner said that the law should either be enforced or repealed. To have a law of this sort and not enforce it is a menace to our entire government and to society. Hypocrisy was declared to be at the bottom of the failure to enforce prohibition. "Let those who vote and talk dry drink dry," declared the prosecutor. "Let those who drink wet vote and talk wet." This sounds like a simple matter, but as human society is now constituted, you cannot get people to do it. The wealthy employers who think that they can get more work out of their employees, if the latter are deprived of the chance to buy liquor, will continue to drink wet personally while talking and voting dry and paying their money to keep others dry. Prohibition was only intended to be effective in practice as it applied to the white laborer of the North and the Negro laborer of the South. Of course, it may be a good thing for both these classes, but it was nevertheless born in hypocrisy.
It is alleged that Mr. Jolibert Fills has been arrested fourteen times since 1922 and imprisoned seven times. Among the reasons for his arrest was the publication of an article under the title of "Republic of Itaieh," which appeared in the Courrier Haitien. It was alleged that the allusions in the article referred to President Borno. So the editor was arrested with the approval of High Commissioner Russell, who keeps Mr. Borno in power as president. This is the same editor for whom it was claimed that the High Commissioner was having a special cell constructed, four feet square, as he had become so habituated to confinement in jail that special provision had to be made to add to his discomfort. Whether that story was true or not it will be seen that the lot of Haitian editors is not easy under the American occupation.
In the meantime so long as prohibition is one of the laws of the country it should be enforced, as Mr. Buckner says, or repealed. There is no sound reason in law or in equity, so far as we have been able to discover, why the Eighteenth amendment is any more to be enforced than the Fourteenth or the Fifteenth, except that a Congressman named Volstead framed the appropriate legislation providing for such enforcement. At any rate the United States judges and attorneys should be given a chance to make good on the enforcement proposition.
To the assertion made by Mr. Rodenberg that the Haitians desire the maintenance of the occupation, this Haitian writer asked why, if that was true, when they were clamoring for legislative elections in 1921, the Department of State opposed such a step at the instance of the officers of the occupation, for the reason that the elections would result in an anti-American majority. It is further maintained that for the Haitian people the main question is not whether the Americans in their occupation do good or bad, the Haitians ask for the restoration of the independence of their country and autonomy for their government. They also ask for the restoration of their legislature.
A feature of the proposed readjustment of the prohibition enforcement forces, under the charge of General Andrews, is concentrating the control of industrial alcohol in this division. As The Age has frequently pointed out, the diversion of alcohol from its legitimate uses for the benefit of the bootlegger is one of the greatest incentives to the violation of the law. The base of all spirituous liquors is alcohol and so long as it is made easy for fraudulent manufacturers to obtain the supply, bootlegging will continue on a large scale. Cut off the supply of alcohol to fake manufacturers and padlock the bootleggers' retail places and there may be a possibility of enforcing prohibition.
These things are not likely to be accorded so long as the present officials of the American occupation exercise the real power of government. To retain their strangle-hold on the government, they do not hesitate to forbid freedom of speech and restrict the liberty of the press. Haitian editors who uphold the cause of independence may count on going to tail sooner or later.
The United States courts and their prosecutors should not be crippled in the enforcement of the laws
This anomalous condition bids far to continue until Congress or the President intervenes and takes steps to restore legislative government to Haiti and removes the marines and their machine guns. With
A SOCIALIST ON SOCIAL EQUALITY. At the sixteenth annual conference of the National Association of Colored People, which was held at Denver last week, Charles Edward Russell, a noted author and publicist and one of the founders of the organization was reported in his opening address as demanding for the American Negro "full and absolute social equality, whatever the consequences might be." While this demand as considered in the light of what followed merely covered those rights inherent to all citizens under the Constitution, Mr. Russell's demand is very likely to cause a shudder to run through the white
a President chosen by the people of Haiti and a legislature to cooperate with him, there would be a chance for the return of the country to the position of independence that it won over a century ago. Then American interests could be represented by a minister from this country of the type of Bassett or Langston or Douglas who could do more by sympathetic understanding and legitimate diplomatic intercourse to promote goodwill and its attendant prosperity. for both countries.

South and tender New populars as a candidate for any office in that section.
And yet there is no valid reason why the white South should shelter at the suggestion of social equality, except that it chooses to use that term as covering any demand for equality of rights and opportunity for the Negro race. When Mr. Russell used the term social equality, his coupled it with the rights granted under the Constitution. These include the right to vote and hold office, to share equally the school funds to travel in comfort and security for the same fare on railroads, and to share any and all public accommodations on the same terms as others. The thinking men of the white South understand this meaning of the term, but the demigroups and politicians prefer to construe it otherwise, as involving such private relations as the social mingling of the races in marriage and in other relations. This is the bugaboo upon which the fiction of Anglo-Saxon race purity and white supremacy is based. And no one has done more to remove the privath social barriers between the races than these same white men of the South.
Mr. Russell some years ago made a gallant race for the governorship of New York State on the Socialist ticket. He is therefore not daunted by ordinary obstacles nor averse to engaging in a fight against heavy odds. He therefore made his declaration more emphatic by saying, "I want full and absolute equality for the American Negro, for that is the only way in which the Constitution can be made sacred. And I am willing to accept the consequences of that social equality whatever they may be."
It remains for the whites of the South to study this subject of social equality with sober reflection. Let them see how far they have gone in the practice of social equality in one direction, while rejecting the theory in most public directions. Let them find a frank and honest definition for the term that will still their fears and enable them to deal fairly with their neighbor regardless of his color.
THE PRINCIPLE OF SERVICE. The principle of service to humanity is at the basis of all movements having for their purpose the welfare of the community. Especially is this true of the Young Men's Christian and the Young Women's Christian Association. To be sure this principle is lost sight of at times, as happened in the case of the former association's branch in Harlem, where the morale of the institution was sacrificed in the determination to retain an executive who had lost his usefulness. But as a general rule this principle is followed in the conduct of such organizations.
We were therefore surprised to receive a letter from a correspondent in Brooklyn, in which he complained that he had been denied a glass of water in the restaurant attached to a Y. M. C. A. If the facts were as stated, we are inclined to believe that the waiter put himself in the wrong by refusing this request. Common courtesy and humane instincts forbid the refusal of a drink of water to a stranger in most every country civilized or uncivilized. An organization having for its purpose the service of humanity should be the last place where such a request should be refused.
No institution of that character would sustain an employee in such refusal. The regrettable thing about the whole episode is that any employee should be so removed from the spirit of service embodied in the institution as to deny such a request. There is need for better training of the employees and agents of such institutions in the spirit of service which they should carry out in their dealing with the public. Most of our welfare institutions and their workers have this spirit so well developed, that any absence of it as betrayed in this instance, becomes the exception to the rule and causes a shock of surprise.
To avoid such unfortunate occurrences every employee and official should be imbued with the spirit of service to such an extent that the most unreasonable request may receive a courteous response, even if it cannot be granted. Courtesy combined with the spirit of service can do much to make the stranger at ease in such institutions and go far toward carrying out their purposes without friction, or the arousing of resentment over trifling omissions and commissions.
Let the principle of service be carried out by every official and employee, even including the waiter at the restaurant counter.
WEST AFRICAN INTERESTS.
West Africa is the name of a weekly newspaper, published in London, which is devoted largely to the development of British commercial interests on the West Coast of Africa. A recent issue of this publication showed the great number of these interests represented and the diversity of their character. The advertisers include numerous steamship companies. West African merchants and traders, brewers, distillers, gun manufacturers, banks, motor cars, surf boats, camp kits and many other necessaries
The Age Readers' Forum
for the nature and forefinger in West Africa.
The news articles treated of Nigerian food issues, the legislative council the plague at Lagos, trade conditions at Accra, the Gold Coast exposition of 1925 coming elections in Sierra Leone, an encounter between a bull dog and a leopard in which the former showed grief and quick-but met his death. A correspondent contributed some natural history items as to the practice of crows stealing, chicken eggs and some devices for capturing hyenas. He also told the following story of the chameleon:
When a female chameleon is full of eggs, the male digs a hole, and buries her alive in it. There she dies, but the eggs are matured and matched. In the wet season the young chameleons come up out of the ground. A hunter, who has marked where the male has buried the female, puts a flat piece of metal above the place, and covers it with earth; in the wet season comes round and the young season emerges, each one makes its way through the metal plate; the hunter on his front finds the plate pierced with holes; he takes it to a blacksmith and has each hole made into a ring; these rings are said to be powerful inducements to good shooting.
The illustrated section contained some good illustrations of Government buildings in Nigeria, a portrait of N. J. Ballanta Taylor, one of whose musical compositions was reviewed by a musical critic; a portrait of A. Spetan, vice president of the Union of Students of African Descent, previous to his departure for Lagos; a group of the "Old Boys" Association of the Westlayan Boys-High School, Sierra Leone, together with other scenes and groups.
There was a review of the West African exhibits at the Wembyl Exposition in England, as well as an account of the products of the French West Coast colonies, sent to the colonial exhibition at Strassburg. A striking comment on the work of the Africans in designing was quoted from the head of one of the most famous Manchester houses in the West Coast trade. He said that the designs which his firm consider the handsomest and most artistic in their stocks are not designs made by them for West Africa, but designs sent to them from West Africa, the Gold Coast to be exact.
West Africa seem to be coping quite successfully with the adoption of European civilization in its many phases.
Port au Prince, Haiti. The must-fortunes of our country have willed that, by the side of the generous Americans who-defend the Haitian cause, a vulgar herd of foreign exploiters exist, some in our very bosom, others in the United States itself, the true cooperators to the masters of the actual hour. To those who read the American papers we will tell nothing new, in affirming that a campaign is being conducted to perpetuate the unnatural history that we are running through. Those malevolent efforts run against the efforts of philanthropists like Senators King and Borah, who keep up the closest intercourse with us. We must not forget the associations which are devoted to our cause and our friends in the United States. As for our enemies, they are more numerous than one linda. This is, perhaps, one of the causes of our territory, added to the government action. But whatever they do, the time will come when they will fail of their criminal design.
Mr Rodenberg, whose shocking lies our colleague "Le Nouvelle" and "Le Tempes" have reproduced, is one on the agents of these great American capitalists who dream of the total colonization of Haiti, in order to make it their domain. He is one of the instruments of colonization that they are utilizing against our country Mr. Rodenberg arrived at Port-au-Prince on a steamer of the Panama line, stayed just ten days in Haiti, stayed on the island, and into the region on the Arubanite with Americans on business, which occupied nearly all the time he sojourned in the island. How could Mr Rodenberg who had contact only with his fellow country, speak with knowledge of the unfortunate situation, which has been created in our country, for the last ten years by the pillager and sanguinary imperialism
Mr Rodenberg traveled to Haiti in company with Mr Royal Johnson. Both came to visit the little village of the Arthonite to attempt to launch a business in concert with an American named Mc Crosson and other powerful Americans. These men want to have the concession of the irrigation of the valley of the Arthonite. If the plan requires with the help of certain influences that we already know, it will be a colossal scandal of which the Haitian will again be a victim. The interest of Mr Rodenberg is at stake to a high degree and explains

According to a Memphis special in the Buffalo American, an effort is being made to prove that the South can appreciate harlem regardless of color. It said.
According to the report of the Commercial Appeal which sponsored a fund to buy Tom Lee a home, more than $2,400 has now been raised toward the realization of this home for a great gace hero of the Norman disaster. The goal is $3,000, which it is hoped to reach by next week.

Tom Lee is the Negro boatman who rescued thirty-two passengers from a sinking steamboat on the Mississippi river a few weeks ago. A shrewd student of racial-propaganda ventured the opinion that this notable achievement merited the award of the Splingarn medal and its hero should have been made the center figure of the meeting of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People at Denver. Too bad the suggestion came too late.
Claiming that a "Jim Crow" golf course constitutes a factor in the fight on segregation, the Washington Tribune scored the so-called better element of colored residents, including financiers, physician, pharmacists, college professors, lawyers, real estate dealers and architects, for making ineffective the protests of others against segregation and discrimination. It said among, other things:
There are not less than six public golf courses in the District of Columbia. They are in public parks and are maintained by the Government. There is one eighteen-hole course in *East Potomac Park*, a nine-hole course in Rock Creek Park, two nine-hole courses in *West Potomac Park*, one nine-hole course at the Lincoln Memorial, and one practice course on the polo field. Only one of these, however, the nine-hole course at the Lincoln Memorial, is open to colored persons.
Lieutenant Colonel Clarence O. Sherrill, latey of North Carolina, now the superintendent of public buildings and parks is responsible for the institution, as he was responsible for the placing of "Jim Grow" signs in Rock Creek Park, which he was forced to take down, and for the segregation at the dedication of the Lincoln Memorial.
Its continence is made possible by the very men who should be the leaders in a fight not only to remove every vestige of segregation in the national capital but to get rid of Colonel Shergill. Their approval of segregation by their use of the course put him in position to say that he is giving the colored people what they want.
On the other hand we find a Texas Congressman 'condemning' Col. Shergill for permitting colored children to use the same fountains with white children, when they were opened for bathing purposes to those under twelve years of age.
Among the paragraphs of current news and opinion in the Louisville Leader we found the following:
Turn on the light and the cook-coaches scamper for the dark corners and the cracks. Just so the Klan dreads the bright light of publicity. For example, a local Klanman begged that the Klan
well his bold affirmations in favor of the American occupation. In his article, he says that the Haitian people are happier and enjoy more liberty under the American administration. Only from 1922 to this day, 18 journalists have been arrested and thrown into prison. They are Reverend Auguste Albert, E. Paulud, of "L'Ophion Nationale"; E. Chauvet, Duvigaud, S. Vilard, of the "Nouvelle"; E. Pouget, Clement Juste, F. Vincent, D. Heurtelou, of the "Poste"; Jolibou Fils, G. Petut, O. Savain, P. Lemare, O. Duplessy, E. Guerin, P. Pierre-Paul A. Simeon, A. Charmant, of the "Courrier Hauten".
Among the offences ascribed to those victims of the regime we point out these: F Vincent, manager of the "Poste," is accused of having published false news consummate in the fact of having announced after the papers of the Government, that boats from the American fleet were maneuvering in the harbor of Gonaives, Haiti. Mr Pouget is in prison for having published an extract concerning Charles XII of Sweden, Mr. Borne, who rules under the title of President of Haiti, pretends that he is aimed at in that article. For that, he had the journalist arrested Mr Jolibois Fils has been arrested fourteen times since 1922, and imprisoned seven times. Along the motives of these arrests, there are some typical ones. An article under the title of "Republic of Italy," published in the "Courrier Haiti," imprisoned Mr Jolibois who was imprisoned, Mr Borne, who was not named in the article, pretended that the allusions of the author concerned him. Immediately he had Mr Jolibois, manager of the paper, arrested. All that is accomplished under the shield of Mr Russell, whom they want to make pass for an ideal administrator
The Haitians wish the maintenance of the occupation, affirms Mr. Rodenberg. If that he true, why in 1921, when they were clamoring for the legislative elections, the Department of State, on the report of the occupation, opposed such elections, under the pretext that they would bring a marjority anti-American. Mr. Rodenberg leads the American people into error, when he pretends that before the American occupation, Haiti was ruled by insignificant counts and that the Cacos were thieves. For the Haitian people the question is not if the Americans do good or bad, if they have or not the intention to do better. The Haitians simply ask for the complete restoration of independence and the autonomy of their country. They ask for the restitution of the legislative chambers. Mr. Rodenberg is enraged on the

The Florida Sentimil, published in Jacksonville, finds ground for encouragement in the recent action of the Leaf literature in educational matters. It said:
Perhaps the most encouraging贝贝 news in this State for some time is the announcement of the appropriation of $450,000 for the Florida Agricultural and Mechanical college at Tallahassee by the recent legislature and the gift of $100,000 more by the General Education Board. The fact that it is as much as the total amounts appropriated for the past three years makes it all the more pleasing to the colored people of the State. The appropriation was recommended by Governor John W Martin his address to the Legislature, and was a part of his progressive program. Two other measures included in this program were the appropriation of the legalizers to see their need. Martin was forced to veto the bill appropriating $1,500,000 for rural schools because of the fact that no means were provided for raising the funds. The other bill which sought, to make the Florida Normal Institute at St Augustine a State institution, failed but there is still chance for it in the next legislature.
The Sentimental credits the legislature of 1925, with "a record of the greatest achievement in education of any legislature in the history of Florida." West North Carolina, West Virginia and Tennessee leading the way, there is hope that the rest of the Southern State may awake to the need of increased educational facilities for the youth of both races.
In an article entitled "Cruising free African Redemption," published in the Star of Zion, Bishop C. C. Alleye had the following to say about the native politician, whom he styled "the base of life at an African railway station."
He is clad in a suit of blue serge thick enough to require comfort on Broadway, on a cold February day Our African "cop" is a cross between a military and jungle man. He sports an Egyptian fex, and though sheless his legs are covered with leather gaiters. Armed, with a little brief authority, plays such tyrannical tricks before high heaven, as must make the bones of departed Omanhenes and Fias turn over in their graves. His emblem of power is a whip. This he applies briskly and frequently to the backs of black mothers of men, surging, struggling, striving to catch the waiting train for the land of the valliant Ashanti. Evidently these guardians of the law are not here to help, but hinder.
As this observation was made previous to the train leaving Sekondi, the policeman's conduct was presumably based on British models as followed in West Africa. It could not be much worse a Georgia or Mississippi.
building of a road of 165 miles by its occupation. There is nothing to boast of if we recall the conditions under which this work was executed. What has been done was only the reparation of a road in existence more than a hundred years from the time of the French court in Haiti. To execute this work, the Americans took peacetul peasants, who they forced to work all the week without pay. They were sometimes sent far from their homes. It was the forced labor which was the cause of the revolt of the Cacoes. The Cacoes are not thieves as Mr. Ridgberg falsely affirms. This is the same that is given at all times to the country of the interior, always ready to grant foreign domination and grant all foreign domination and grant the accomplished country who would be the accomplices of the revolt to escape the compulsory labor, and the atrocities which have been the consequence of it, that the unfortunate man had to take refuge in the woods and revolted against the Americans.
---
The crimes committed before or after the revolt were so horrific and cruel, that an American Senate had to say it in the Senate that he could not believe that the perpetrators of those crimes were human beings. It is during the administration of Mr Russei, as during the occupation that this has been a place of missionary, they would like to give as an example of a good administra
Dr. Grutening having made an investigation in Haiti, has reported in an American review, that he found only two persons to speak well of Mr. Russe, two Frenchmen, the Archbishop Coeur and Pichon and a Haitian, Mr Durieuxave, then President of Haiti, thanks to American support, and maintained during his tenure that he was United States under the command Mr. Russell Mr. Rodenberg has undoubtedly good reasons to represent the mission as an immense benefit. He can designate as reducible thieves the pass who revolted against injustices he has point out to the Universe the Bruder Russell and Mr. Borno, as the recurring examples of moral greatness he deceive nobody, for too many to be devious all the hideousness of the regime which is already crushing Haiti.

Mother Zion Church
The attendance at Mother Zion Church last Sunday taxed the capacity of the church, both in the main auditorium and the gallery. This was Austiaries' Rally Day. This president of the auxiliaries were putting forth much effort in order to make this a great financial success. At 10:45 a.m., Junior Church meetings were opened in the lecture room. This being the third Sunday in the month, bapst. and holy communion are administered. Services were conducted by Rev. P. A. Price, A. N. Watkins.

Jesus Christ, as very dear to them. This is seen in the history of their religious educational, business and governmental life. The domestic and governmental functions seemed to have been idealistic. The divine life running through the new young nation laid the foundation for the present-day prosperous United States of America. The people of the nation have to have intoxicated the majority of the people of our nation today. For our Lord's Day, as well as Independence Day, tends towards days of hilarity and pleasure rather than prayer. The prayers the people of our Lord Jesus the Emmanuel here set forth in the text not only had a direct meaning and purpose at the time that they were uttered while He was in the flesh, but they are words of life and
Our Lord tells our Heavenly Father that He had given to His Apostles and through them His believers the glory which He had given to Him. This brightness, adoration, attention, heavenly joy and radiance that they had, He prayed that among them unity might be manifested. This unity of the divine and human natures in the Apostles and believers made them new creation, active life, so that all devolved, that with a new creation evolves in the world of humanity. The result has been that everywhere that Jesus our Lord the Emmanuel has been made known and the Holy Spirit have been consciously recognized in our great achievement and human progress.
Today as we observe the interdependence of groups, of business and of nations; the growing spirit of community, the status of a nation; the cooperation and understanding and the tendency towards international justice and a well trained good conscience we feel that there is a spirituality that is the will of God our Heavenly Father. This God and Heavenly Father is personified in Jesus Christ our Lord the Emmanuel May we become sanctified and help so that the Trinity, by the power and the love of God; and may we manifest in this world a spirit of harmony and divine unity that will demonstrate the Kingdom of God upon us. The Emmanuel has said: "The meek shall inherit the earth: "The pure in heart shall see God" This is true through divine unity. At 2 p. m. the Sunday-school was interpendent, William H. Wheene

Shoeem Presbyterian Church
The Sacrament of the Holy Communion, was administered, at the morning hour of worship at Silicon Rev. George Shipman, Start, pastor, of the Church of the Holy Table of the Lost Sheep, The Lost Coin and the Prodigal Son. The striking point brought out in the sermon was that it is human nature to love that which is lost because it is lost. It was Christ's first work for working from God sometimes, because he like the lost sheep happily wanders away; sometimes because like the coin, he has a passive lack of realistance, in not matter of his circumstances, rather becoming the servant of thine heart. In the prodigal son, in open rebellion.
"The Potter and the Clay" was sung with deep, religious servor by Mrs. Effe Stanard, Smith, the church Whites, and director, Herman P. Scott, of New Haven, Conn., formerly, living in Brooklyn, and at that time, a member of the church comed at the morning, service and assisted in the distribution of the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper. Added to membership, Mist Delay Church had the largest attendance and offering for this season of the year in its history. The captains of the various teams in the church, Canvas are bringing in their reports and in many cases money. The canvas "is being pushed with every possible effort and nothing short of the full quota is achieved. All parents having infants, baptized this quarter or during last year can have baptismal certificates if they so desire. These certificates will be sent to the service on next Sunday morning.
There was a large attendance of children at their hour of service from ten to quarter to eleven. This service will continue for the remainder of July, the regular session of the Bible School, 1:15 p.m., being closed for the months of July and August. The outing of the school will be held on Wednesday, July 15, at Rockaway Beach. They are a Parish House by bus at nine o'clock.

A program of the - the year's - work of the church is being prepared for membership. It will be ready in time for distribution before the opening of the fall season. It will give a comprehensive idea of church through all of its agencies.
The funeral services of the late Mrs. Charles Cooke were held from the church on last Friday afternoon. Mrk. Cooke's membership in the church covered a period of over fifty years of faithful service.
Newman Mem. M. E. Church
A splendid congregation greeted the Rev. Thomas Cooper as he preached the morning season at Newman Memorial M. E. Church last Sunday. His text was from Codus 12:14, "a memorial," subject, for a memorial. "Memorials."
Form the command given given the Lord to ancient Israel to commemorate by the Feast of the Passover their miraculous deliveries from Egyptian bondage, ororials, national and religious, that were celebrated at stated times as memorials of some great event or achievement. But he declared that none compared in significance or benefit with the Lord Jesus Instituted by the Lord Jesus Christ to commemorate His suffering and death for the sins of the world. While we honor the memory of American freedom from English domination we must not forget the liberation we have achieved through the sacrifices of the Sons of God. Miss Rebecca Williams, the new superintendent of the Sunday school, has left the city for the summer, and Dr. Cooper, with the aid of the Sunday school officers, has visited the sessions of the school during her absence. At 8 o'clock, the Rev. J. R. Waters, field agent for the Conference Claims Fund for the Delaware Conference of the M. E. Church, made his annual address, made a strong appeal for the aged ministers' retirement fund.

"What we do here will determine our status in the life hereafter," said the Rev. D.

Jeremy Goddard, pastor of St Luke Sunday, given to everyone a stewardship the first Being ourselves; the second, our influence on others, and the third, our time, means and opportunity We are accountable to God, and we have to be faithful to that thing. We referred to as that thing which gave evidence of our divine creation, and that part of man which has through all ages hailed the scientists. In our stewardship while on earth the pastor urged that we live wisely and well.

SPORT COMMENT By WILLIAM E. CLARK
HERALD-TRIBUNE FIGHT EXPERT SAYS HARRY WILLS REMAINS LEADING CONTENDER
CECIL COOKE, DeHART HUBBARD AND BROOKINS WIN NATIONAL A. A. U. TITLES IN CALIFORNIA
In an interview with a representative of a local daily immediately after his first visit with Charlotte Walser, Harry Wills announced that his presen- tions plan for the remainder of the summer was a vacation in Europe, where he will issue a defy to all heavyweight contender and mistake a bone specialist in Germany. Harry stated that his hand had not given him any trouble in his last fight but he had heard of a noted bone specialist in Germany whom he wished to have examine it.
It will be remembered that he broke his hand in a fight with Barkley Madden two summers ago and again while training garl his fight, with Lujifirpo. It has been patched up and a New York-based writer that there is little likelihood of future HERALD-TRIBUNE. FIGHT HARRY WILLS REMAINS
In contrast to the mocking attitude adopted toward Harry Wills by W. O. McGehan, sports writer of the Herald-Tribune, Jack Lawrence, the fight expert of the Herald-Tribune had the following to say of Harry Wills, recent showing against Charlie Weinert:
Willa More Threatening.
Thursday, night's ring, battles at the Polo Grounds were throughly exciting, entertaining and all that sort of thing, but they did very, very little to clear the atmosphere or to iron out the ruts in the pugilistic topography. Harry Wills remains Harry, Wills, and he is still a dark cloud hovering, over the crater of the moon, among the others. In fact, Harry seems a little more threatening than ever.
When Harry Willis faced Chateley Weinert at the Polo Grounds last Thursday, evening, there was a prayer on more than one pair-of lips that the Newark-Adonis would win by something approximating a decision, margin. A few even expressed the spirit hope that Charley would knock Harry completely out of the picture and thus bring to an end one of the challenges the business of professional pugilism has ever known, particularly as it pertains to the heavyweight division.
Had Weinert held Wills to even so much as a draw it would have gone a long way toward eliminating the Brown Panther as a contender for the heavyweight title. It would at least have left a loophole through which Harry might have been eased out of the local scheme of things. It would say that than inert had the decision by a judge to box the Boxing Commission of this state would have lost no time at all in washing its hands of Wills and all

trouble with it. But for his peace of mind the *Brown Panther* is desirous of having this statement confirmed by other specialists, especially the more noted ones of Europe. On *Wednesday* Wills left, New York, accompanied by, like Kirk, the French, will tour our England, France, Germany, Italy and Switzerland. They expect to be gone several weeks. In case they run across Jack Dempsey while on the other side, another challenge will be made to him.
Officials of the Hospital Fund announced on Friday that Wills share of the kate receipts -15 per cent -amounted to $50,300. His contract called, for 20 per cent, but he voluntarily turned, back $5 per cent to the fund, which amounted to over $15,000.
IT EXPERT SAYS
S LEADING CONTENDER
those connected with him.
Vision. Is Growing Rapidly
But as matters turned out, Wills emerged from this affair a more formidable figure than ever. Among the thousands who witnessed, that sort and bitter struggle there were not a few who carried away what they had been in the air on Thursday night might have beaten down Jack Dempsey. This would seem to be a far-fetched vision, but there is no doubt that it is growing rapidly in the minds of many fight fans. For those who follow the ring closely for one reason or another, Wills last week proved that he is hitting harder than ever and with greater precision.
The Wills-Weinert battle only served to prove that Wills is still very much with us, and will continue to be a thorn in the side of Denysey for some time to come. There doesn't seem to be any chance that the present time, who is capable of eliminating him from his consideration, Gene Tunney might do it, but the chances are that he would fail. There is also no indication of any tangible sort that Bill Gibson, Tunney's manager, intends to permit him to become mixed up with the colored peril. He plenly of money, and at present plenty of prestige, as a result of his rather astonishing knockout victory over Tom Gibbons. He wouldn't have very much to gain by getting himself into a jam with Wills, whereas if he sits back and bides his time he may get a shot at Jack Dempsey and the heavyweight crown. However that may Thursday affair at Polo, George still leaves Wheeler Hills riding high as the leading contender for the most classic of all static honors."

His nearest competitor was three feet behind him.
O E. Brookins of Iowa University, who is generally classed as colored, set a new A. A. U. record in the 220 yard low hurdle event, covering the distance in 23 2-5 seconds. Brookins holds the world's record in this event and easily outclassed all opponents.
Cecil Cook of the Salem Crescent Club, New York City, and Syracuse University, is the new 440 yard champion. Cook heat Allan Helffrich, conqueror of Nutmi, in the tryouts of this event, and was added to the New York representation at the last minute. Helffrich did not run against him in the meet here but completed in the half mile event. The big colored runner's closest competitor was Joe Tierney, the Intercollegiate champion, whom he defeated by more than a yard. His time was 49-1-5 seconds. Cook has been advance to the high school days at DeWitt Climber and his many New York friends will be pleased to learn of his victory.
Charles Majors, who represented the Salem Cresent A C and the Metropolitan A. A U in the running high jump event, met with stiffer opposition in his specialty. He was beaten by Harold Osborne of the Illinois A C who holds the world's record and three other competitors. Osborne won 6 feet 7 inches. DeHart Hubbard competed in the tryouts of the 100 yard dash and although he placed, he fell out in the finals.

Berlin, Germany. It looks as if the colored American company of The Chocolate Kid's at the Admiral Palat is all set for a German run, either with the show at the Palat or elsewhere elsewhere. The business has pitched itself as good but a salty reduction has been asked of the performers after the first eight weeks contracted for this engagement. The salaries paid the colored artists seem high for over here although the show is playing to a $25 top in a gallery house.
"Some of the performers have accepted the cut." For those who will not the management will make substitutions.
In a statement to Vikriety by Monroe M. Goldstein of Kendler & Goldstein, the attorney states that ruthors concerning the status of the colored troop in Berlin resulted in cabled inquiry by X. & G. for exact conditions. The reply from the attorney, who said thearies had been paid and the players were satisfied with their present job.
Mr. Goldstein also stated that the company received an eight-week minimum guarantee as to salary, with guarantee as to first class transportation to and from Berlin, made by Morris Gest in behalf of Dr. Leonidoff, who projected the venture." The doctor stated Mr. Gest is not in any way financial interested in the colored show.

HILDALE TAKES
JULY FOURTH GAMES
FROM LINCOLNS
New York Team Fought Hard
But Cowl Not Overcome
Pennsylvania Team
Philadelphia, Pa.—A capacity crowd that jammed every airway overdown into Hillfield! 'Hillfield' and the Hilldale team take two gruelling games—from Jim Keeznan's sallenders, annexing the morning, contest 8 to 5 and grabbing the afternoon game 7 to 5.
Despite the fact, that, the Bronx delegation had lost ten games in a row and apparently can not get off the skids, the fans were treated to a bang-up article of ball, in both contests. Bryce Mason, the New Yorker's recently acquired outfielder, who, formerly sported the togs of the Bacharach Giants, injected a bit of excitement into the pastime in the afternoon game. After being called out on strikes in the fifth inning, Mason roughly shoved umple Baetzel and drew an automatic dismissal from the fray. Under the ruling of the Expos, he entered a $100 fine on himself with the possibility of also being suspended.
Henry Gillespie, another former Bacharach Giant started the game for the Gothamists, but his benders were "duck soup" for the Hildale mishle maurette and he was chased to the showers in the third session. Johnnie Hafer then worked a single in, and for the second encounter, Taylor finishing the game.
Rube Curric pitched a clever game and actually was never in danger, although the New Yorkers flared up, in the latter innings of play, scoring five runs.
The Giants got off to a four run lead in the afternoon game and behind the pitching of Harper, who figured largely in the Marcell deal and finally reported to the Lincoln Giants, it appeared as though the Hillside winning streak would be dented. However the Cleveland Dainaes landed the ball the the Dainaes landed for three runs and after tying the out in the seventh, Cockrell won his own game by driving in what proved to be the winning run in the eighth inning.
Underhand Script Lee started on the mound for Hildale, but after the Giants had socked in four of their five runs, Capt. Warfield decided it was time to call another hurler to the rescue and vanked Lee in favor of Cockrell. Cockrell stopped the heavy hitting of the Giants, while his teammates packed away at Harper's slants and salted away another victory.

St. Kitts Walks Off With Week-End Games; Orients Beat Boston; Matches On Staten Is.
Last Saturday was a glorious Fourth of July for Cricket fans in New York, St. Kitts Eleven beat the crackerjack Jamaica team at the New York Oval in The Bronx and the New York Orients defeated the All Boston club at the Commercial Field in Brooklyn on Independence Day. The Newark cricket team lost to the Manor Field boys in the championship match of the New York-New Jersey Cricket Association at the cricket grounds in West Brighton, Staten Island.
Fully 1,200 followers of the game attended the weekend match in the Bronx. It was like old times. Fast bowling, good fielding and party strokes kept the grandstand in a fever with cheers, laughter, and applause.
The game started at 11 a.m. on Independence Day and the lives of good cricket came early, and remained late. There were men, a large crowd of women and a goodly number of small children, playing and laying if they knew what it was all about. It was a jolly good time witnessing the contest between St. Kitts and Jamaica on Saturday and St. John and St. Kitts on Sunday. An account of the game is told elsewhere in this book.

Should the Decision Of The Umpire Be Final?
In order to promote, cricket to the St. Kitts Social and Athletic Club has asked all lovers of the game to cooperate in helping keep the games free from all disorderly conduct, and ill feelings over the close decisions of umpires.
There are times when it is very difficult for a referee to determine who is rightly entitled to the benefit of the doubt in any context. The same condition exists in cricket matches. Often an umpire, in his wiseest judgment, with an intent to be fair to both sides, renders a decision that the fans do not agree on, despite the fact that the umpire, is in a better position, both technically and professionally, to see and judge better than the fans in the grand stand. Therefore the decision of the, umpire is final. 'It is a well known saying that "One must be a gentleman to play cricket."
GOOD CRICKET SUNDAY
St. Kitts won the week-end match from the Antigua boys Sunday at the New York Oval by a score of 120 to 55. Winning the toss, Captain Margeson decided to bat and it was the excellent batting of the New York League Champions with strokes all over, that ran the score up quick and fast. The century mark was hit early in the afternoon, Sunday, and the grandstand went wild, of course. It seemed, at least for a while, that there was not an Antigua man in the field. The 'ones that made double figures were A. Francis, R. Yearwood, N. Yearwood, E. H. Margeson and C. Francis, not out. The only St. John players to make double figures were J. Henry, and W. Burton, while H. Leader gave an exceptionally good exhibition of fine fielding in behalf of the red cap boys from Antigua who are among the world's best, despite the fact that the bowling of the yellow jackets New York Leaguers seemed to have been too much for them Sunday. The men responsible for the excellent game Sunday are as follows:
St. John's (Antigua)
S. Bruce, Capt; W. Burton, W. Emanuel, S. Mayers, C. Brown, J. Henry, S. Henry, C. Joseph, A. Fredrick, E. Skerritt, A. Pell, C. Crosby C. Phillips, E. Livingston, C. Lovell St. Kitts
T. Margetson, Capt; A. Francis, C. Francis, K. Margetson, H. Thompson, S. Davis, A. Morton, R. Christopher, N. Yearwood, R. Yearwood, L. Hartman, H. Leader, A. Richardson, G. Harris, G. Coker, P. Ible.
Week-End Matches Draw Crowds All Over City
The Orient combination of the New York League proved their mettle. The team, Mass, team at Commercial Field, in Brooklyn on Independence Day.
Cricket fans from Harlem and other points of the Greater Citi who journeyed to Brooklyn to buy home boys turn the trick enclosed at afternoon of pleasure with an intense fever heat while the Orients put up a score of 242 against the Boston-Cricket Club. The team of the day were the splendid wives of Fordringham and Springer. St. Kitts drew a monster when the New York Oval and, despite the rain, they brought rounds and rides of, cheers from ardent cricketers and well wishers, while they scored the Jamaica Boys 161.
Kid Norfolk Returns After Successful Tour Of The Pacific Coast
Kid Norfolk, former colorado heavyweight champion, returned to New York last week after a most successful tour of the Pacific Coast and landed During his western trip Norfolk enraged in more than a dozen bouts and bounced one—that to Floyd Johnson in San Francisco on a foul. According to his fight, Norfolk had Johnson groaned and yelled, "I'll fight you!" After a claim of foul on a blow to goach. The referee allowed the foul and declared Johnson winner amid the fights of the fans.
The "Keed," as he is called, states that his eyesight is much improved and that he falls as fit as ever. He is going to Long Branch next week to begin training for a bout with Paul Berlenbach, who is heavyweight champion, which he spent the season in New York about the first of September.
After this bout he will return to the Pacific Coast for the winter. The past colored fighter is under the management of Leo P. Flynn.

PULLMAN PORTER NEWS
By james’ #. HOGANS
The question of who will be the

up to now has bees on the lips o!

merly of the Philadelphia district
fomeés to New York in, place of the
fate F. A. Cooke.
With the average Pullman porter
the auestion of hs district super.
téodent is a"yery important one. As
2 matter, of fact, the sort of pgrson
he is, is of more concern to him than
any other executive’ of the Pullman
Company, for it is under the direct
yupervision of this official "that he
faust work. The porter who cannot
get along with ‘his disticg,superin
tendent is indeed, in bad. “It is to
this executive that all employes of
Ghe district must report when things
Eo wrong; and it is to him they must
first appeal for eny adjustments in
their ‘industrial relations with the
company, Ht is under, his direction
that employes are hired and it is by
his orders that they are fired. In
short, he is the commander-general
of ali departments of the Pullman
service in a given territory, There-
fore, it is quite comprehensible why,
the porters of this districi were 89
anxious to know Who would be their
next boss, and, in a certain measure,
ihere are reasons for this anxiety
Where the employes personnel of
» Pullman district are working in har~
moniobs relations.(as they are during
at present in the New York territory)
and the service in that particular dis-
trict is satisfactory to the managing
heads in Chicago, this pleasing con-
tition may he creadited dirretly to. the
excellent supervision of that district's
sunerintendent.
Fathermore, and of much moment

Htitude’ assumed hy this official in
his dealings with those nf lesser
positions under his jyrisdiction is

tuned by his astistants in theit deat.

The beautiful Queen of Roumania asked one day by an American reporter, what she did to remain so wounded a young and yet world-old smile.
Good humor, she answered, "good health an, overpowering, desire, to make others happy, a keech never-to be quenched interest in life and all problems, a natural disposition to be generous, amused, forgiving, a love of open air, as few cosmetics as possible, and the good habit of washing my face well before going to bed."
Water and soap are not absolutes. It necessary. 'The really good loot and creams have their advantage when wisely chosen. And one more recommendation: Next morning I awake full of joy because another day has begun.'

I had just finished reading "Fire In The Flint" by Walter B. White, when the following item in the daily paper caught my eye:
"Klan Prepared To Enter State Political Campaign"
ROCKET CAMPAIGN
"Binghamton, N. Y.—The Ku. Khz. Klan units of this State are planning to participate in the fall political campaign by giving organized support to candidates approved by them. Efforts will be made to nominate members in the primaries, but they will not be known as Klan candidates. Other sections the Klan will induce such party nominees as it approves of."
At the present time, therefore, New York State finds the Klan girding its loins to put in its candidates—under cover—for the fall election, which will simply be a forre-runner of other elections. Klan controlled in New York—unless—and the rest of it must be written partly by the Negro vote of the State.
The Kluxers' are on the job! Are you? They are organized and preparing! Are, you? They will each have one vote—so will you. How will you answer Nancy Ware?
Canning Methods For Acid And Non Acid Vegetables
The Bureau of Home Economics of the United States Department of Agriculture is frequently asked why the water-bath method of processing may be used in the home canning of fruits and tomatoes, whereas, nonacid vegetables must be processed under pressure.
The explanation given is that for successful canning the temperatures applied should ordinarily be the lowest possible that will insure a safe product. While no growing or so-called vegetative, bacteria will survive for any length of time as the temperature of boiling water (212° F.) some bacteria are able to go into spore form. These spores are killed only by very long-continued heating at boiling temperature, especially if the fruit or vegetable being canned has juice that is alkaline or only very slightly acid. When the juices are are acid, as in fruits and tomatoes, all forms of bacteria are killed. More quickly at 212° F., which is the highest temperature possible in the water bath. A water-bath canner is commonly understood to be any covered vessel of sufficient depth for the jars or cans to be completely immersed while processing, and equipped with a rack or false bottom which permits water to circulate around the jars or cans. A wash boiler frequently answers the purpose in the household.
Corn, peas, beans, and other vegetables that do not have acid juice need to be processed under steam pressure at temperatures higher than 212° F. and for this reason the steam-pressure canner is recommended for canning them.

Draw Code Of Ethics
Newspaper Publishers One
Line Their News Duties
Asherville, N. C., July 7—A code of
ethics based upon the fundamental pric-
incipal that a newspaper's first duty is
to print the news honestly and fairly is
all-unbased by any other consideration
even including its own editorial policy—
was presented to the Southern New-
paper Publishers' Association here today
by a committee designated to draw it
up. Among the points made in the code
were these:
"Recognizing honest differences of opinion exist, we may vigorously maintain our own position without denouncing others as disloach and unfair"
"Decency should be the guiding star in the printing of news editorial, advertising, and all feature articles or illustration."
"Is it fit to print and to be read by my own brother?" should be the test rather than "will it sell more papers?" "Consideration for the unfortunate and for guiltless victims of the faults of others." "No story justifies noodles damage to a good reputation or wanton pain to an innocent." "Respect and tolerance for those of different religion, races and circumstances of life."
Honesty in all dealings, whether with eruders, advertisers, employers or competitors.

REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA
"It is impossible to say how long a time the United States will give protection to Liberia, but be the time long or brief, it is only Quasi in character and is but an uncertain crutch for Liberia to lean upon. At the best, America's interference in the affairs of the little African Republic is more of a political gesture made to influence votes than an expression of sincere concern over Liberia's welfare. Liberia's future rests in the hands of Negroes—American and West Indian, as well as Americano-Liberian—and it behooves them to recognize this truth and endeavor to make it fructify."

Rev. Dr. W. R. Lawton In Good Physical Shape
Following upon his retirement from the active pastorate of Rendall Memorial Presbyterian Church, 122 West 129th street, and his being named as pastor, emeritus of that congregation, rumors have circulated to the effect that Dr. Lawton has suffered a physical breakdown and gone into absolute retirement.
As a matter of fact, every day finds Mr. Lawton at his desk in the Marriage License Bureau in the City Clerk's office of Brooklyn, a position in conjunction with his pastoral work and which he continues to fill. He has written The Age; asking that the reports as to his physical disability be denied, declaring that he has never felt better in his life.
Dr. Lawton writes as follows: Editor of The, New York Age; Kindly accord me space to correct a statement as to my retirement from the active, pastorate of Rendall Church.
Mr resignation does not mean retirement from service. I am 'just ripe' for service and will serve the cream of my life, in every possible way in the interest and welfare of the general public—In publ. from the general public and in the movement for the next fifteen years.
Having been relieved from an awful strain, I feel as a giant refreshed with new wine, and am ready for the new broader field of general public service. (Rev.) W. R. LAWTON. Brooklyn, N. Y.

The meeting was called by the pastor, the Rev. Thomas S. Harten, Dr. Harten, in his opening remarks, outlined the purpose of the meeting, stating briefly the benefit that the race would derive by elevation of five physicians on the Harten Hospital staff. He stated, "The race will continue, and shibu continue until Brooklyn physicians, of our race, given representation on the staff of both Cumberland Street and Kings County Hospital."
Dr. Hatten stressed the importance of a better cooperation and a closer relationship by the leaders of Brooklyn and especially the ministers. He also urged the race to give stronger support to Negro enterprises and professional groups. Dr. Hatten worked the audience for being so engaged in reading race books. He stated that every family should have to take one Negro newspaper to enter their homes each week. He stated that there are few who do not buy the white-paper daily, while they close their doors against our papers which fight their battles and magnify their good. Hardly one-third of our church attendance subscribe for any weekly papers or literature published by the race. The meeting was opened by singing American lyrics by the choir under the direction of R. A. Austin, with Harden Tidale as the orator for the Rev. Dr. Coleman; coiling up the Rev. Dr. Harten.
be the master of ceremonies. Rev. Dr. James B. Adams, pastor of Concord Baptist Church, took charge and said: "We are responsible for our part in the race of life. We must make our congregation true only for our own time, but for the coming generation. If we do not run well, we place the probation sons and daughters under a haphazard. There is plenty to do. There remains yet very much good to be accomplished."
R. Ree, Dr. H. H. Proctor, pastor of Mazarine Congregational Church, extended greetings on behalf of the ministers of Brooklyn. He said that—1. Our doctors have gone through severe tests to prepare themselves. 2. They meet many obstacles in getting a start. 3. They have made the lives of their race longer and stronger. 4. They should receive the loyal support of their race. 5. They should be more largely represented in our churches and should recognize the value of the Diving element in their work of healing. Dr. Richard Birch, representing the Brooklyn physicians, said: "The men of Harlem are to be congratulated because: 1. They will have an opportunity of advancement limited only by their own mental capacities. 2. They will have an opportunity to serve their community with this. In Brooklyn we have a more difficult problem. The two city hospitals here are large and not in the coloured neighborhood. We must unite, on getting representatives on the staff of these hospitals.
Rev. Dr. W. C. Brown, pastor of Fleet Street A. M. E. Zion Church spoke on the subject: "What representation on Hospital Staffs by both Doctors and Nurse's means to our own Race." He said that—I. I promised added health, E. E. I promised wealth, A. I promised the aspiration of the Negro youth. 4. It develops race conceiveability. 5. It will give us what we need to need 'for our bodily illies.' Rev. Dr. George Fraser Miller, rector of St. Augustine Episcopal Church, spoke from the subject: "The difference between 'Segregaton and Colonization.' Rector Miller was received by the congregation enthusiastically. Dr. Miller stated that the working of these men and women, on the staff, necessarily mean 'segregation' but rather 'colonization' colored people of Harlem. We are representatives of religious groups stand ready at all times for our people."
After offering was filled by the Rev. Timothy White, pastor of Belt Baptist Church; and the new pastor of the Cosmopolitan Church; and the new pastor of Shepherd's Church; Baptist Church of Shepherd's head Bay was represented by the pastor, Rex Tames, C. Brown.
