The girl was so frightened that she did not make any outey at the time, neither did she notify the police nor hurry back to her employer to report it. The girl had just been to the bank to draw the week's pay roll for the dress shop where she worked, and on her way back a man came up from behind and suddenly thrust an envelope before her eyes, saying in one breath, "I've just found an envelope containing a large sum of money, give me all the money you got." She states that she was so excited and frightened at the instant that she unconsciously handed over the pay roll, and the strange man quickly disappeared When Miss Lewis reported the hold up at the dress shop where she works, her employer summoned detectives, but when they arrived, the account of the hold up as related by the girl, seemed to vague that she was taken into custody and held for investigation. The girl has been employed at the dress shop all winter and has been well thought of and trusted by the owners with large sums of money over night on numerous occasions. She had been collecting and paying bills for them ever since she started to work there. The nervousness which is attributed to the girls weakness in handing over the pay roll to the highway man without hesitating or making an outcry and her mindlessness in wandering about the streets for a while before she returned to the dress shop to report that she had been robbed, as believed to be the result of a recent illness for which she was continued to the Harlem Hospital and is still a under treatment. She has not been home from the hospital quite two months and the physicians had informed her that she will have to undergo an operation soon. She has since been brooding over the operation which she dreads and her landlady states that she had been very much upset over her physical condition. She had returned to work before she was cuttly well and complained that she would have to give up the job until her health had been re-gained. The two sisters who operate the dress shop are rather lenient with the girl but desire to verify the reported hold up. They are not anxious to prosecute the girl but would like to recover the pay roll Miss Lewis' father who came up from Baltimore has promised her employer that he will make the $400 good. LATI R. The case was taken to the grand jury and Miss Lewis was held for trial on Wednesday, charged with being connected with the alleged robbers. 1. Mrs. Hunton Qualified For Fine Work As Head Of N. Y.

Poker Game Dispute Ends With Stabbing Suffering from several cuts on the left thigh, Harold Middleton, 27 West 131st street, is in Harlem Hospital and his alleged assault, George Wheeler, 26, 2156 Seventh avenue, near 128th street, is under $1,000 bail for a further hearing on Height Court. Wheeler was arranged before Magistrate McQuade. Wheeler and the complainant who met in front of 130 West 131rd street continued a dispute which began at a game of poker several hours before According to Middleton Wheeler accused him of retaining $3 which he said properly belonged to him. Wheeler Middleton denied the assertion Wheeler is alleged to have drawn a knife and slashed him several times. Screening with pain. Middleton fell to the pavement. His alleged as salutant started awaas.

Rockefeller jr., was turned over to Clarence H. Kelsey, chairman of the endowment committee. $4,500,000 of the $5,000,000 requisite to meet the terms of the grantman bequest have already been subscribed. With the payment of Mr. Rockefeller's pledge of $1,000,000, Saturday, more than half of the $4,000,000 has been paid in cash While the committee has arranged to extend time for the redemption of the pledges to three years, Mr. Rockefeller explained that he was deeply interested in the education of the Negro and that the sound work of Hampton and Tuskegee Institutes in achieving the solution of the race problem and establishing the economic status of the Negro deepened his interest. Hence he preferred to liquidate his pledge at this time, in order to give these two institutions the benefit of the $1,000,000 in their expansion programs Noble Sissle Who Made $100,000 In "Shuffle Along" Is Bankrupt Judgements Against Him For $3000 Cause Petition Of Bankruptcy To Be Filed Noble Sissle Who Made $100,000 In "Shuffle Along" Is Bankrupt Judgements Against Him For $3000 Cause Petition Of Bankruptcy To Be Filed NOBLE SISSLE IS BANKRUPT NOBLE SINSE IS BANKRUPT Leit, Noble Sissle co author and one of the stars of "Shuffle Along" and the "Chocolate Dandies" and one of the best known performers of the race, is bankrupt. He was examined in supplementary proceedings last week and stated that there is a total of $3,000. in judgments outstanding against him, that he has no property or other assets, excepting $0,000 in bank salaries due him from "Chocolate Dandies". Since this show has broken up, there is little likelihood of his collecting his salary. Leit Sissle agreed to a receiver being appointed for his estate and John J Ryan was duly named by judge (allahan). No mention was made of his partner, Eubie Blake in the proceedings but it is generally understood that Blake is also in desi- Lleut, Susie began his stage career under the late Lleut James Reese Europe when the latter was the head on the Cief Club. He went overseas with the famous 369th Regiment, serving in the hand under Lleut Europe and won popularity as a vocalist singing American songs to the French and American troops. Upon his return to America and the death of Lleut Europe he formed a partnership with Future Blake of Baltimore and together they wrote such popular songs as "Love Will Find A Way" "I'm Just Crazy About Harrius" "Honeysuckle Time" and "These songs formed the basis for the success of Shuffle Along which had a run of more than a year on Broadway. The authors and principals of this show are said to have made $100,000 or more as royalties for their songs and share in the production. After a tour of the country they produced "Chocolate Dandies" under the direction of B. C. Whitney. This show did not prove the success their first venture was and it was through losses sustained in Chocolate Dandies that the banakruptcy action was brought about THE SUNDAY SCHOOL OF WESTERN STUDIES Girl Wife Tries To Take Her Child From Grandmother On Bus Mrs. Alice Smith, age 19, of 203 West 133rd street, the mother of two children, ages 1 and 2, respectively, was assessed ten dollars by Magistrate McQuade in Washington Heights Court for disorderly conduct on a St Nicholas avenue bus, Friday, July 19. The charge grew out of an attempt of Mrs Alice Smith formerly Miss Alice Carter, to forebear take her two-year-old child from her mother-in-law, Mrs Virgine Smith when the two women casually met on the bus. The child had been placed in the case of the mother-in-law by the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, shortly after the parents of the child had separated. When the young wife and mother, Mrs Alice Smith, who was formerly Miss Alice Carter, was married to young Smith the couple lived with their mother in-law. But after the second child was born they went to housekeeping by themselves. According to Mrs. Virgine Smith, the mother-in-law, fearfulous friends of the young wife persuaded her that she should enjoy all the follies and pleasures of the "jazz" and "cabaret" set. This resulted in the young wife's alleged neglect of the family and finally in disruption of the domestic relations. A short time after the separation of the young couple, the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children awarded the custody of the elder child to Mrs. Virgin Smith the mother-in-law, stipulating that the infant should remain in the care of its mother until it was one year old. Meanwhile Smith the father, had to contribute five dollars a week to his wife for the support of the infant. When the soucer Mrs. Smith, the mother of the children, chanced to meet the mother in law on a bus at the end of the St. Nicholas avenue line she approached her saving. This woman has my baby" and attempted to tear the child from its grandmother's arms in the presence of the few remaining passengers. This resulted in her arrest and her payment of a fine of ten dollars for disorderly conduct.

At 11 a.m. the pastor praised a stirring season from the text, "And the disciples were first called Christians at Antioch showing that the from 'Christian' first used in derision by a people noted for the catholics to put sting into words, has now become the noblest badge that can be applied to any individual or any people. At 5 p.m. there was a public meeting when addresses were delivered by prominent laymen, Dr Richard Taylor presiding.

Mason, Teacher, Of Baltimore, Md., Finds and Remarries 1st Wife Having traced the wife from whom he was divorced fifteen years ago by appealing to all the Baptist ministers in this city, George S. Mason has been remarried to Mrs. Mary Wood Mason after a five minute courtship over long distance telephone. "We were just a pair of foolish kids and spoiled as well when we were first married," the second as well as first Mrs. Mason said. But we're older now and I guess it will stick this time. I looked around for fifteen years, but failed to find a better man than George Sylvester. "It was a problem to find the woman for Mason after he began yearning for a reconciliation. All other means failing, he wrote to every Baptist minister in New York because he knew she attended that church and was somewhere in or near the metropolis. Then he appealed to a ministerial convention. The Rev. W. W. Brown of the Metropolitan Baptist Church read the letter to his congregation, in which happened to be a friend of Mrs. Mason. Mr. Brown wrote that Mrs. Mason was employed by Mrs. Osborne S Tweedy here Mason telephoned her May 12 from Baltimore. They were remarried at St Mark's in the Bouwerie last Saturday. They were first married in Baltimore in 1905. Landlord Wants To Rent Apartments To White And Colored First Opposed Negro Tenants But Vacant House Changes Her Mind Landlord Wants To Rent Apartments To White And Colored First Opposed Negro Tenants But Vacant House Changes Her Mind There are any number of apartment houses in Harlem in which both white and colored families live but go far as the Age has been able to ascertain there is but one house which advertises apartments to rent to both white and colored. This house is located at 654 St. Nicholas avenue and the manner in which it came to be rented is an interesting story. The owner, a Mrs Wolf, is the white woman who is alleged to have said about a year and a half ago that she would rather burn her house down than to rent it to Negroes. At that time the apartment next door had just been offered to colored tenants. It seems that some of Mrs Wolf's tenants became frightened at the invasion and moved to other neighborhood. She advertised for other tenants and one of those who answered the advertisement was a very fair colored couple. She took them for white and rented an apartment to them without asking any questions as to their race. When the couple moved in other tenants in the house' discovered through friends who called that their new neighbors were colored. This resulted in another exodus from the house. As the mortgage came due in a few months, Mrs Wolf decided to swallow her prejudice and turn the whole house over to colored. This was done and the Philip A. Dayton Jr. Company was made the renting agents. But against their advice she made the rentals $75 and $85 for four and five room apartments. In addition to the owner's return to take the advice of her agents in the matter of rent she's alleged to have interfered with them in other matters connected with the renting of the house so that they gave up the agency last week, and she decided to be her own agent. In front of the apartment now is a big sign with the words: 4 and 5 Room Apartments With all modern improvements FOR WHITE AND COLORED TENANTS Inquire of Janitor on Premises Alleged "Scotch" Whiskey Caused Musician's Death Widow Asserts That Husband Was In Sawdust Inn, 112 W. 136th St., All Night VILE STUFF HE DRANK IS MADE BY THE BOOTLEGGER 3 "Beers" Brought Death To Man—Deaths in N. Y. 11 Times As Many As 1920 The story told in last week's Age concerning the tragic death of a talented young musician, following his indulgence in poisonous concoctions dispensed by the conscienceless bootleggers operating in Harlem, has attracted wide attention. Although no names were used, and the real facts slightly changed, the truth of the story has been confined by the widow of the victim and The Age has been given definite information as to the hooch joint in which her husband was sold the stuff which was the direct cause of his death. In a talk with an Age representative, the widow said that there were three places which her husband frequented, the saloon at 2360 Seventh avenue, corner of 138th street, run by Frank Bastone in the building controlled by Robert Willis, a colored man, a basement hooch joint at 2348 Seventh avenue, and the Sawdust Inn another basement dive, at 112 West 136th street, owned by a white man known to all his intimates as "Red." but whose real name seems not to be known Calls Himself "Mr. Green This "Red," it is alleged, is the owner of several other places, notably a joint being operated at 104 West 130th street next door to the popular Craigg's Cafe, and just across the street from the First Emmanuel Church, of which the Rev Richard Manuel Bolden is chief pastor "Red" also owns, or formerly owned, the hot dog stand at 543 Lenox avenue, and the nearest to getting his real name comes from the fact that on one occasion he gave as his mail address, "Mr. Green, care, Hot Dog Stand, 543 Lenox avenue." Now, according to the widow, it was at this Sawdust Inn owned and operated by "Red," that her husband was served the drinks which were directly responsible for his tragic end. The young musician, after finishing his work as an entertainer at the resort where he and his companions were employed, stepped, enroute home, in this 130th street hooch hole. He was with a companion, a young man who lived across the hall from him, and the two staved in the Sawdust Inn drinking the sale synthetic connection which "Red" is alleged to manufacture himself and which is labelled as pre war Scotch, until about 430 a.m. Death Follows Drinking Then the two men started home, just outside, however, the musician met another friend and in compliance with this new companion's insistence, returned to the drinking place just to have another glass. But it was 7 10 a.m before the last glass was drunk, and then the musician and his next door neighbor proceeded home. According to the widow, the young man was in almost a helpless condition. With her assistance, however, he was gotten to bed and he immediately dropped off into unconsciousness. However, he awakened in time to get away from the house to a rehearsal scheduled for 1 p.m. but he had to leave without eating any breakfast. The rehearsal is said to have ended at 2:15, and evidently the poor fellow must have been in bad shape or had some premonition of an impending fate, for the widow declares that at 2:30 he was at the entrance of the apartment house in which they had --- New York rooms. He made his way up two flights of stairs and entered his apartment, but dropped acrobis a bed in the first room be reached. And here his wife found him in a few minutes, and just a few minutes before he breathed his last. : "Scotch" Is Made Here According to the city medical examiner's report, death was attributed to heart failure, induced by excessive alcoholic indulgence and the widow declares that this was accepted by the family so that no post mortem should be necessary. The alleged "Scotch" whiskey sold in Sawdust Inn by "Red," the proprietor was the direct agent, however, says the bereaved woman, and this concoction, she further avers, on the word of a former employee of "Red," has never a bit of right to be socalled since it is made from raw and dangerous products by "Red" himself This statement is supported by a report recently issued from the Internal Revenue headquarters in Washington that 95 per cent of the socalled "Scotch" which is being sold under pre-war labels is bogus stuff, with redistilled denatured alcohol as Rs most active agent, and with every one of the labels a rank forgery. Three "Beers" Kill Man The deadly quality of the alleged alcoholic drinks and the "real beer" which is served in boctlegging haunts today is shown by a report in Monday morning's papers to the effect that Joseph Raunig, an electrician, of Elmford, N. Y., purchased and drank three glasses of "beer" in Yonekers on Sunday morning after which he went home and went to bed. But he did not get up for he died from an alcoholic poisoning while still eleven And the State Commissioner of Health Dr Matthias Nicoll jr., in the forcoming issue of the departmental organ, "Health News," reports that there were eleven times as many deaths from alcoholism in May, 1925, as occurred in May, 1920. He states that there has been a steady increase in these fatalities since that time, and that there were 79 deaths from alcoh- ol in May of this year List Of Hcoch Joints Still Wide Open!

Y Seeing New York During A Summer Vacation Trip Schedules For A Three-Day Sightseeing Tour To Be Made On A $10 Bill According to railroad statistics more than 200,000 visitors come to New York City daily. Of this number at least 2000 are colored, and many of them have grown in the Metropolis before. The big season for tourists who have never been in the city before, is now on. If these tourists plan to spend as much as three days in the city, here are a list of places of interest which may be visited at a total cost of not more than $10 for each tourist: A Day's Program The first day-Take the elevated at 8 a.m., if possible from Harlem to South Ferry. At South Ferry you will see Green Green, the oldest park in New York, where formerly stood the statue of King George 111, which, during the Revolution, was destroyed and made, into bullets. Then go over to the Aquarium, originally the site of Fort Clinton, later the famous Castle Garden. It became the Aquarium in 1893 and now houses the largest collection of fish, mammals, mollusks, etc., in existence. The admission is free. After you have visited the Aquarium, take the ferryboat to Bedloe's Island to see Bardhocki's Statue of Liberty, which was presented to the United States by the French people. The round trap fare will be 25 cents. As you ferry out into New York Harbor note the Brooklyn Bridge Upon your return from Belldoe's Island, walk up Broadway to Wall street, and thence to the Woolworth building. A ride to the top of the Woolworth building, the world's tallest building, will cost you 50 cents, but it is well worth the money. When you come take a surface car to Wanamaker's store at 81st street and Broadway. After visiting this store, walk two blocks west to Washington Square to see the Washington Arch. You can then take a bus. (No. 4) Upfifth avenue through the shopping district and "Millionares" row" to 110th street where it will turn west and go to Riverside Drive. Get off at 123rd street and visit Grant's tomb. You can go down under the vladet when you come out, take a cross-town car to 7th avenue and 125th street, then walk home. You'll probably be too tired to care to go out again that evening but in case you are not, visit the Capitol Theatre at Broadway and 50th street—it won't cost more than 85 cents. Another Day's Schedule The second day—Take a seventh avenue buss about 9:30 a. m. down to the Metropolitan Museum of Art at Fifth avenue and 82nd street. This museum contains a fine collection of ancient treasures and historic relics. Admission is free every day, except Mondays and Fidays. The admission on those days is 25 cents. Almost directly behind the art museum is the Obelisk (Cheopatra's Needle) which was erected near Cario, Egypt, in the 16th Century B. C. It was presented to the United States by the Khedive of Egypt and erected in Central Park in 1881. If you like to walk, continue across the park to Columbus avenue and 77th street, where you can visit the American Museum of Natural History free. In the evening you can get good seats to a Broadway show during the summer months at the cut rate ticket agencies for $1 Picnicing On Third Day The third day Take the subway to the Bronx Zoological Park and Botanical Gardens You can take your lunch and have a regular picnic in the shaded nooks along the Bronx River But if you don't care for the animals or the flowers, you can take the 180th street crosstown car to University avenue and from there walk up to New York University campus and visit the Hall of Fame. In the evening you can take a boat ride up the Hudson, around Manhattan Island, or to Coney Island—other will be a delightful trip and can be made for $2^-$ or less. You can now add up the car fare and expenses for the three days outing, and find that the total is within the ten dollar limit. Some Harlem Sights Should you have more time and money you can discover some of the wonders of Harlem. You might go into the first store where you see a man peeping through the glass door or windows, as though he was looking for someone, aptly a sample of the famous Harlem hooch. If you are able to walk when you come out, note the number of young men you see hanging around the streets, if it is in the late afternoon you will see them standing in front of a screenboard at a poolroom, watching the scores in untidy. So they are not layers of the great American game but gamblers who have bet money in a baseball pool. If you want to see more of the scary side of Harlem life, visit one of the cabneys or public dances in the evening to go to harrys' Liberty Hall or to the auction rooms on 125th street, and see how gobble Negroes are. The Better Side But if you prefer to see the better side of Harlem life visit some of its beautiful churches, walk through some of the side streets, such as 18th or 19th and note the heartful, well kept homes, or on to see some of the public schools in the neighborhood, the two million dollar Teacher's Training School being erected on 13th the College of the City of New York and Columbia University only a few blocks away. The summer visitors might also visit the New York Age office at the W. A., the 15th Street Branch Library where there is a special exhibit of Negro literature in the neighborhood, baseball parks playgrounds etc. A trip to New York is not complete without seeing at least half of the things and places enumerated in this article.

"The passing administration at Fisk, perhaps with good intent, did, nevertheless, develop too large a staff of too meagre ability Fisk needs stronger and fewer teachers," said Paul A Cravath, chairman of the Fisk University board of trustees, at a dinner given by the Fisk Club of Greater New York on Tuesday evening, July 7, at Craigg's Restaurant, 102 West 130th street. The dinner was attended by members of the trustee board, alumni, and former students, with a representative of the new facultyw毕 begins rehabilitation work at the opening of Fisk's next team in the fall. The statement made by Chairman Cravath followed remarks by the Rev Paul E. Baker of the new faculty, who is touring the country in interest of Fisk, and who showed that since the resignation of the late president, Fayette A. McKenzie, and the readjustment of affairs at the institution, radical and necessary reforms had been consummated. The Rev. Dr. Henry Hugh Proctor of Brooklyn, president of the local Fisk Club, and head of the reorganized national body, the associated Fisk Clubs, made a stirring address, discussing the qualifications which should be passed by the new Fisk head. "Sympathy, understanding, intellectual achievement, a democratic spirit and a humanitarian interest in the progress of all students under his care—in short, the qualifications of the late Erastus Milo Cravath, the first president, must be the qualifications of Fisk's new president," said Dr. Proctor. Mr. Baker, in enumerating the Peterson at Fisk since the passing of the McKenzie administration, pointed out a remarkable reversal of policy. The *elorms* include naming a dormitory committee, a student council to be organized in the next term, a student publication to succeed the abanonded "Fak News" which was considered the McKenzie no-noupiece, and the reorganization of the athletic department. "Fak must adopt a new philosophy of education based on self-expression. Issues must be met and met squarely, declared Mr. Baker. A material reduction in size of the faculty will be carried out, this being the easier since some twenty-five of the old faculty, theorest to the McKenzie regime, will not return next year. Among those who have resigned are Miss Collins, a member of the temporary administration committee; Isaac Fisher, A. W. Parch Dr Elmer Imes Ipkks, so Belff of the alumni, in absence of W. E. W. B Dubois, and pledged support to the new administration. Alumni subscriptions totalling $4,000 were announced by Dr Ernest R Alexander, as follows 1,000 each—Dr. M V. Boutte and Dr. E. P.

The annual convention of the Empire State Federation of Women's Clubs, held at Newburg, last week, was notable for the change in the administration of this organization. After her faithful service of ten years as president, Mrs. M. C. Lawton of Brooklyn relinquished the responsibilities of that office, which she has carried with unswerving fidelity, and was succeeded by Mrs. Addie W. Hunton, whose reputation as a successful organizer and tactful administrator promise increased effectiveness for the work of the federation. While many of the individual clubs that make up this federation in New York State are engaged in useful and needed work in their various communities, there is room for an increase in the number of active clubs and the addition of various phases of work among girls and women. The needs and character of each community will suggest the special nature of the work that would be best for that individual organization. Besides the special needs of each community, there are certain phases of welfare work that should engage the attention of the women's clubs in all parts of the State. Rescue work for girls, the welfare of inmates of prisons and reformatories, the care of the homeless and the aged are among the phases of general work that might well engage the activities of the women's organization. There should be a disposition to make membership in the State federation to mean that the individual clubs composing it are all the year long organizations, each functioning in some useful department of women's work. Headquarters for the federation should be established and maintained in New York City, the most central point in the State for this kind of work. From here information and encouragement could be supplied to the individual clubs and their activities stimulated and coordinated as the occasion might demand This permanent headquarters, with an official in charge to attend to the routine demands of the office, would entail some expense, but with the increase in numbers a small tax on each member would suffice. The benefits to be derived from such a step would more than justify the outlay. With the increasing importance of the part that the women of the present day are called up to play in the fields of business and politics, there has been a decided increase in their responsibilities in the outside world. The woman's club is one of the means through which they can meet and cope with these responsibilities to the best advantage. The united action of these clubs when gathered together in a federation redoubles their power and their effectiveness. With the change of administration in the Empire State Federation comes the opportunity to further its aims and extend its usefulness. In working for reforms of a public nature the importance of instructing women in the proper use of the ballot should not be lost sight of. The practice of voting and enrolling as a member of some political party should be emphasized by every woman's club. If women are to take their share of the burdens of the community, they must be prepared to use their power in the most effective way. TRAINING FOR VOCATIONS. The announcement that Public School No.119 is to be continued for the purpose of furnishing vocational training for overage girls is an indication of the earnest consideration that is being given to the practical side of education at the present time. The necessity for this kind of training was pointed out in these columns a few weeks ago, in consequence of the growing number of pupils reported over age, who would in the course of time become graduates without receiving the advantage of such training for useful occupations. The facilities afforded them in this school should be a decided advantage in preparing them to take up the role of wage earners. While this preparation of the scholars is a necessary preliminary for them to secure employment in the business world, there is another preparation needed to ensure their finding proper scope for their activities. Applicants for employment are numerous at this time of the year especially. Business as a rule is at its lowest ebb and the opeh- ings are few. Even those who have been trained for business openings are not able to find them at the first attempt. Numbers of unsuccessful applicants have visited this office telling of the difficulties of their quest. There is a need for an expansion of business to engage the activities of these aspirants. This expansion of business is desirable and to be justified on other grounds than that of affording employment to the youth of the race, as has been pointed out by many writers, but that is an additional and essential reason for encouraging it. With the broad and fruitful field for retail business to be found in the Harlem section, there is every reason why the number of business ventures should be increased and their character diversified. Real estate, restaurants, pool rooms and beauty parlors appear to constitute the majority of the enterprises that have succeeded in gaining a firm footing and making a good front. There are many other lines of trade where the same principles would build up equal success. What is needed is more pioneers along varied business lines. We have at various times indicated those lines which would promise success, but the wise promoter must select the line of his individual bent and greatest experience. Where capital is lacking, several individuals might combine along cooperative lines. This principle has been applied to the purchase of real estate with considerable success of late years, and it looks as if it might be extended to other lines of business experiment. With the youth securing the proper training for useful vocations, it becomes necessary for the community to utilize it in creating a demand and an outlet for trained service of that sort. WEST POINT AND ANNAPOLIS A news item that appeared in the daily papers of last week was to the effect that four hundred cadets were admitted to the United States Military Academy at West Point and sworn into Government service at evening parade. And it might have been added, that among them there was not one boy of the Negro race, notwithstanding the splendid record made by the soldiers of our race from the days of the Revolution to the World War. The question arises, whose fault is it. Since the establishment of West Point as a military school maintained by the National Government for the training of officers for the army, there has been a determined effort to exclude colored students from its benefits. Notwithstanding this policy, three men of the race have survived the ordeal of four years of social ostracism and petty persecution and won a commission in the army of the United States. These men of unusual ability and powers of endurance were John H. Alexander, Henry O. Flipper and Charles Young. The first died at Wilberforce while still a lieutenant. The second was the victim of trumped up charges before a court martial in New Mexico and was discharged from the army. The third won advancement to the grade of cqlonel, but was kept out of the World War on the pretext of disability and afterward sent to Liberia where he died. Since then no colored candidate has been nominated for a cadetship at West Point, with the exception of one named by former Representative Ansorge of a Harlem district, several years ago, but who failed to qualify for entrance. Candidates for admission to this free academy are nominated yearly by members of Congress in each district and by the President at large. While Mr. Ansorge was the only Congressman who made a point of appointing a colored boy, there is nothing to prevent our youths from entering into the contest, when the appointment is thrown open to competitive examination. The Negro boy who aspires to enter West Point as a cadet must be made of good stuff. He must possess the qualities of self-reliance and self-denial to a large degree. He must not only be well grounded in mathematics and the other studies required for entrance, but he must be able to concentrate to such a degree as to shut out the spirit of prejudice and snobbishness that will surround him for four years. He must not only have courage, both mental and physical, but he must have "guts." Some have had all these and survived, but it is a test that no white boy is called upon to undergo. POLITICS AND IGNORANCE No court proceeding of the present day has aroused greater interest at home and abroad than the trial of John T Scopes, a public school teacher, for violating the Tennessee law prohibiting the teaching of the theory of evolution The law which Mr Scopes defied was enacted at the last session of the legislature in March. It makes it unlawful for any teacher in the public schools that are supported in whole or in part by state funds, "to teach any theory that denies the story of the divine creation of man as taught in the Bible, and to teach instead that man has descended from a lower order of animals." have been not able Numbers cited this sir quest, business grants, desirable ends, than the youth by many and es- With tail bus. The chief figure of the prosecution, which is conducted by the Attorney General and other state officials, was William Jennings Bryan, who availed himself of the opportunity to pose as the champion of fundamentalism. Opposing him for the defence were Clarance Darrow of Chicago, a noted criminal lawyer and reputed as an agnostic in belief, Dudley Field Malone, former Collector of Customs of New York, and others. The trial began at Dayton, last week, at a special term of court for Rhea county, ordered by Judge John T. Raulston, who presided. Among the comments elicited by this trial of the theory of evolution under such conditions none was more biting than that attributed to Dr. Hendrik W. Van Loon, historian and author, upon his arrival on a Dutch steamer from abroad. Talking to a reporter of the New York World, he said that Europe regards this trial as a "free-for-all vaudeville show." He added: "If this trial were held in a civilized community, I might possibly attend, but inasmuch as it is being held in the backwoods of Tennessee, the whole thing will be controlled by party politics and local ignorance." Dr. Van Loon cannot be versed in the knowledge of the forces that control American sentiment on most important issues, if he thinks that the rule of party politics and local ignorance prevails only in the backwoods of Tennessee. A local commentator at Dayton, described by a Herald Tribune correspondent as "Richard, the Georgia Negro," was inclined to be more tolerant in his judgment, declaring that Dayton is comparatively liberal minded. "Look at this Mr. Scopes," he said, "He is still walking the streets and nobody does anything to him. Now in Georgia where I come from, if a gentleman said he didn't believe in the Bible he would done have been lynched a long time ago." The fact that there could be such a proceeding as this Scopes trial, with such a demagog as William Jennings Bryan as its popular hero in any bonafide court in this country, is a demonstration of the prevailing power of politics and ignorance combined in the affairs of the nation. Dayton is one of the thousands of towns of its kind that in their combined strength of numbers rule the nation. The majority of the members of both houses of Congress and of the barious State legislatures are the products of just such an environment. They are elected to office by the votes of just such narrow partisans and reflect the ignorance and bigotry that such environment begets. The legislation adopted by the Tennessee legislature and championed by Mr. Bryan is intended to protect and maintain this state of ignorance and intolerance. The task before Dr. VanLoon and other enlightened Americans is to find means to dispel partisan ignorance and teach the lesson of tolerance to all classes of our population. As the Georgia commentator concluded, Dayton is comparatively liberal minded, when compared with other narrow communities of these United States. NATIONAL HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION The National Hospital Association was organized at St. Louis two years ago, its purpose being the betterment of the hospitals conducted by and for our group in standards, efficiency, economy and recognition. The organization meets annually on the Monday preceding the meetings of the National Medical Association, at the same place, as its object is to keep in close touch and sympathy with the latter organization. Its next meeting will be held in Chicago, August 24, 1925. The sessions will be devoted to the consideration of questions involving hospital interests, such as the staff, superinendents, nurses, boards of management etc. The membership of the association is divided into four classes. Institutional, consisting of hospitals in good standing; personal, including nurses and physicians; associate personal, heads of institutions or organizations interested in hospitals but non-professionals; honorary. Among the specific activities that the organization has begun and will continue on a larger scale are the following. 1. (a) Tabulating all the hospitals of our group. (b) Keeping record of their standards and rating. (c) Supplying accurate information concerning them when requested. 2. Furnishing a clearing house for hospital interests. By keeping in touch with hospitals and nurses we can assist the institutions and others in finding competent assistants and in securing positions for our personal members available for them. 3 As a bureau of information we may help student nurses to find openings and assist our hospitals in securing desirable applicants for training. 4. Through our committee on Hospital Economies we shall from time to time offer to our members suggestions and information on hospital economics. 5. Through our legal committee we shall inform our members of the laws and requirements for registration and practice in the various states and use our combined influence for justice to our members in these matters. 6. We shall furnish to our members membership cards suitable for framing which should be hung on their walls as a voucher for their regularity and standing. The officers of the organization are: Dr. H. M. Green, president, Knoxville, Tenn., Comments By The Age Editors On Sayings of Other Editors Dr. J. H. Ward, vice president, Veterans Hospital, Tuskegee, Ala.; Dr. John A. Kenney, secretary, Tuskegee, Ala.; Miss Petra Pinn, R. N., treasurer, West Palm Beach, Fla. All hospitals owned or operated for Negroes are invited to membership. The increase in the numbers of such hospitals would seemingly justify the existence of this organization, as a helpful adjunct in stimulating their activities. LAND BELONGS TO THE PEOPLE. In his annual address to the Legislative Council of the Gold Coast, Sir Frederick Gordon Guggisberg, Governor, of the Gold Coast Colonoy and its dependencies, made this significant statement relative to Great Britain's land policy in West Africa: 'I am always heartily in agreement with any member of this Council who alludes to the fact that the arrangements for the settlement of land cases in this country are unsatisfactory. Our respective reasons may be different, but the fact remains. In recent years we have had The Pullman Company will name one of its cars after a heroic porter who died in a train wreck, according to the Chicago Defender. It said: Oscar J. Daniels, Pullman porter, who died in an excursion train wreck near Rockport, N. J., recently, has been signally honored by the Pullman company for his bravery, it has been reported here. The car in which he met his death trying to rescue others and from which he refused to be carried until the rescuers had saved a 7-year-old girl, will when it comes from the repair shop bear the name "Daniels" instead of its former name, "Sircocco." Daniels, who lived at 4402 Wahahah avenue, was one of the outstanding heroes of the wreck in which more than 50 persons lost their lives. The Sirocco was almost completely destroyed when the crash hurled the excursion train from the rails, and although Daniels was badly injured he maintained a clear head and directed rescuers to save others. When the last injured persons was carried from the train and the workers returned for Daniels he was dead. This would seem to run counter to the legal dictum that corporations have no soul. Even so hard-boiled a proposition as the Pullman Company indulges in sentiment when it comes to the naming of its cars. In this case the sentiment signified the recognition of service by one of a class of employees usually disregarded when honors are distributed The Birmingham Reporter set forth the need of a social service organization in that city, in the following terms. Birmingham is in need of a social service movement—not for the white race—nor for the Negro race—but for the people of Birmingham, made up of men and women of intelligence and experience, and those with Christian influence. We have too much open and defiant crime in this community, and a great deal of it is shrouded in mystery and doubtful motives. Such atrocities lower our standing as citizens and create an unwholesome atmosphere. The murder record of Birmingham may not be larger than that of other cities its size in the South or other sections of our country, but this is no compliment and no reason why it should not be smaller. In fact, the criminal record of our city is too large and the kind of crime committed is alarming. It is common to read of murders of various sorts in Birmingham. A social service organization, properly directed, would be privileged to visit various sections of the city and center and counsel with the people, it would be in position to make recommendations that would in time clean up or clean out an element of criminals that will never be located by law officers. In fact, they would be armed with liberties that officers do not have, they would carry on as missionaries and social welfare workers. This would bring them into ready contact with all the people and get a response that could not be had through any other source. Every citizen of Birmingham must feel disturbed over some of the things that are happening in our city with respect to crime, and any movement that seeks to set at rest this wave should be encouraged. We believe that a social service organization can do it. If there are better plans, of course, we subscribe to them. None of us know when we may be caught and murdered, by the gangs of thugs and robbers, and as long as they feel that they can get away with their devilment the things will continue and their tribe will increase. If a social service organization can give Birmingham better government, with the necessary safeguards and protection to the community it will be worth more than the twenty-five thousand dollars a year that it would cost. It looks as if the projected organization would have to take over the work of the municipal government, however. A writer in the Des Mones Bystander emphasized the real motive of Gen Bullard's vicious attack on the Ninety-second Division of the A. K. F., as not intended so much to discredit the Negro soldier as it was for the Negro officer. He said To the Negro officer who served in France his motive is very apparent. Bullard knows that the record of the Negro soldier is so very commendable that it is beyond successful attack. This war marked the beginning of the experiment of using Negro officers and a large part of our white citizenry viciously opposed 10 Commandments For Parents The following is part of a lecture by Dr. Edward W. Stitt Associate Superintendent of the Schools of the city of New York, which was broadcasted from station WOR on May 18. I. Set proper standards for your children to follow. II. Be friends with your children; walk and play with them occasionally. We must not live above our children but with them. III. Do not scold too much. Encourage them to do their best. Let us remember what Philip Brooks said "Children are white, spotted black; not black, spotted white." IV. See that they select proper friends and associates. V. Make "Home" as comfortable and happy as your means permit. VI. Give your children at least a high school education VII. Train them in the habit of regular attendance at church and Sunday school. VIII. Insist that they avoid playing all games of chance. A gambler never can be a success in life. IX. See that your children take plenty of physical training in the open air. It is far better exercise to walk than to ride in a limousine. X. Let your children feel that any honor which they win in school, or any act of courage or unselfishness they may perform, will bring great happiness to Father and Mother, and put the family name on a higher plane of honor. Do not forget that the future of America depends upon how your boys and girls are trained today, not on how you were trained when you were children. The Age Readers' Forum more-than one Commission-to-inquire into the questions of lands in West Africa, but up to now no definite conclusions have been arrived at which would be practicable from the Government's point of view and at the same time be satisfactory to the people. "I have great hope that the Secretary of State's proposed Commission to inquire into the question may have satisfactory results. The details of this Commission have not yet been communicated to me, but as the proposal, appears to have aroused fresh alarm in some quarters that the government is after the people's land. I take this opportunity of repealing what I have said several times in the past few years, namely, that the basis of our land policy is that the land belongs to the people. I can further reassure those who still have doubts on the subject that, if the Government adopted any other policy, it would not receive the support of the Secretary of State." We are led to believe from Gov. Guggisberg's address that Great Britain will protect the native from the exploitation and greed of the white land-grabber, the Government having decreed that the land belongs to the people. We await the report of the proposed Commission with avid interest. the use of Negro officers in this war or any other war. They contended that Negro soldiers would not follow the leadership of Negro officers. This war proved conclusively that this was not true. Bullard and his kind knew it would never do to let it get out that there was no merit to the claim that Negro soldiers would not fight under Negro officers. It got out and now seven years afterward Bullard is trying to discredit the truth. You will note that this attack is limited to the 92nd Division.

The first is the resistance of the patient, second the "rubbing it in," third the germs themselves. People with diabetes may have crops of boils (a series of boils should always send a person to a physician for examination) and children who do not get proper foods and sufficient sunlight have them. Grown people who have undermined their resistance through indulgence (or lack of selfindulgence sometimes) are susceptible to them more than are others. In the diabetic boils are not without a serious aspect The germs themselves require little the explanation. Since boils are abbreviates of the skin, one would naturally look for the cause of them upon the skin itself. The staphylococcus which is the germ that causes boils is on the skin at all times. (The cleaner people are in their habits and in their dressing the fewer there are, but there is always a goodly number present) "The personal touch" is the important thing. You may have observed for yourselves that boils are frequently on the collar line, and that most seem to have them more than women (that is more than women used to have).

He has also demonstrated his unfitness as an exponent of true Americanism. A news dispatch from A shows that the first woman governor of Texas knows how to exercise the quality of mercy in remitting punishment to crime. It is said: Continuing her pardoning prosecutions, Governor Miriam A. Ferguson has always back the iron gates of the Texas penitentiary and issued free passes to some thirty colored prisoners. June 18 is known among the race-faces of America as Emancipation Day, and it has been the custom of most Texas prisoners to extend the hand of mercy to inmates colored people in Texas per institution on that date. But never before in the history of the state have we may "Emancipation Day" pardons been made. At the time Mrs. Ferguson was elected, it was stated that many Negroes need for her in preference to supporting the Republican candidate, an answer "holy-white." Whether these parties were fittingly bestowed or not we have no knowledge, but as prison method stations work for improvement, the prisoners may do better for regaining their freedom. At all events, Mrs. Ferguson is following the president set by the Bluest when governor of South Carolina. Representative Dyer of Museum is a recent address urged the support of Vice President Dawes in his fight against filibustering in the Senate. Among other things he said, as quoted in the Atlanta Independent: "If it were not for the senate, reliate and tm-American rules of the senate, as they now exist, the Dover Anti-Lynching Bill would be a law. It was in the 65th congress that this legislation failed in the senate after it had passed the house. The reason was that in the senate under the present rules it was impossible to get a vote on the bill, although a large majority of the senators were in favor of it. A half dozen senators from the south, led by Harrison of Mississippi, Helfin of Alabama, Harris of Georgia, and several others, put on a filibuster which can be done under the present rules and thereby presented a vote being had. It is a cupious combination of points that brings General Dawes who found excuses for the existence of the Ku Klux Klan in Maine, as an involuntary ally of anti-lynching legislation. Any charge in the rules of the Senate that would enable it to legislate against mob law would be a public benefit. for your children to follow. children; walk and play with not live above our children. much.

These agents tell colored .people that such policies carry benefits for sickness and death, they do not specify, accents only.

The speaker declared that the vitamins were properties which are essential to the proper nourishment of the body. Spiritual vitamins are also necessary to stalwart growth in Christianity. Some that make for eternal life are repentance, faith in Christ and evidence Bible reading, sincere devotion and prayer.

At 11 a. m. Dr Oliver continued the services, selecting for his text St. Luke 416 "The Folks" back home.

The program was supplemented, by music from the newly formed Salem orchestra directed by Mr. Nikon, and a soprano solo from Mrs. Mae Stephens of the Choral. The senior and junior choirs have discontinued singing during the summer months but the Epworth League still holds its services at seven o'clock each Sunday evening. Sunday Joseph Phillips apoke on the topic "Moves The Man of Unusual Experiences." Rev. Richard Bolden of Emmanuel Church conducted the services at the evening worship. His message was the annual sermon to the Peter Odgen lodge of Old Fellows, No. 8668 which had assembled for its annual worship. During July and August Sunday evening services will be from 8 to 9 only. Past experiences have shown this to result in a larger attendance. Though the past few Sundays have been very warm and many of the members have already left the city, the attendance at the morning services has fallen off to a very slight degree: Last Wednesday evening Salem was favored by a lecture from Dr. William P. Hayes, pastor of Mt. Olivet Baptist Church. He spoke on his recent trip to the Holy Lands. Another prominent person to appear at the church the same night and on the same program was Miss Abby Mitchell who delighted with several songs. The committees are working away on the final arrangement for the annual excursion and picnic Thursday, this time to Asbury Park N. J. by rail. It is expected that a large number of Salem members now summering at nearby places will be at the Park that day to meet old friends and associates. One of the very busy clubs around the church is the Salem Crescent Athletic Club. Hot weather don't seem to bother Peter White and his associates. AFRICAN METHODIST EPISCOPAL BETHEL A. M. E.

Harlem Second Seventh Day Adventist Church "Men keep Sunday because somebody else kept it. They have no better or loftier reason for continuing the practice save the fact that it was handed down to them by theirdecessors. Now this is altogether a poor reason for the performance of a religious dity," said Pastor Strachan last Sunday night at the Harlem Second Seventh Day Advantist Church, 106-108 West 127th street. The pastor was discoursing upon the Sabbath question. The minister went on to say further: "It is to be regretted that too many day men can find no nobler reason for the observance or non-observance of a religious practice. Roman Catholics claim—and the claim can be verified—that Sunday, as a religious institution, is only on the foundation of tradition. Others kept the day, and we feel that we must do the same. The Bible is silent on it, for God never ordered it. All that God has said concerning a rest day, concerns another day entirely, and never was intended to apply to Sunday, the first day of the week. "We, in this age and generation do follow minutely the doings of other men, the customs of other men, the practice of other men—men like ourselves; and in certain respects worse than we. This makes our ideals wholly human and necessarily faulty. Men in this our day, strive for human power, human wisdom, human virtue, sacrifice is not so great as would be the effort to meet the divine standard "Now all this was and is, now the curse of the Hebrew nation. They felt more bound by the teachings of their rabbi but by the voice of Jehovah. The apostle Peter halted long before he came in unto Cornelius. It was a struggle to break custom. Paul one time was more zealous for the traditions of his ancestors, than he was for a "thus saveth the Lord." But when he realized what a tyrant he was, he realized that, and how base a slave are detached from a broke away and became a Christian. "William Howard Taft was once asked, why he was a Unitarian His reply was, my mother was one. That honorable gentleman should have been able to produce a better reason "The streets of Boston are crooked today because, many years ago, a lone calf walked home through the primeval woods and made behind him of course, a crooked trail. This by a lone dog Next, by a sheep pursued and drew a flock behind him. Then a lone mall wound up and out and dodged and turned and bent about, following the migration of that calf, long since dead. The forest path next became a lovers lane. The crooked lane became a countryside street. The crooked road a village street. The large street became a city's crowded street and today the cultured Bostonian turns and twists because centuries ago an old calf wobbled as he walked." St. Barnabas Church. B'klyn Services at St Barnabas P. E. Church were well attended Sunday morning. The Rector, Rev. L. C. Dade preached On July 18, St Barnabas Men's Guild, will have a lawn party at the church. The Woman's Auctioneer will have a lawn fete on August 7. Nazarene Cong. Church The celebration of the 52nd anniversary of the church began Sunday with notable exercises. Dr. H. H. Proctor gave the keynote of the celebration on his morning ceremony "The Church as Mother." He informed how the human mother was evolved from humanity, and that we owe our time, our talent, and our treasure to her according to need. On the parallel of this he showed how the church was the most table of all institutions, and the mother of all institutions, and the mother of all time was good in humanity. He then made him aware of all their time treasure, and taken the need of the church. He held that the church needs cooperation more than criticism. In conclusion, he told of the suggestive history of the Nazarene Church, how it had come from a small beginning up to the present institution of nearly 700 institutions. On this basis we should build a great church community center. At the evening hour Res. T. W. Cooper, pastor of the Newman Memorial Church, and his members united with the church in a unifying service. Dr. Cooper gave an inspiring message on the value of strength and unity in Christian service among the main distinguished visitors present during the day were Res. T. Searer, Liberia, Africa, the coffee merchant, Professor George A. Towns Atlanta City, Atlanta, Georgia, Miss Frances I. Chase, formerly secretary of the Ashland Place Y W C A, M. A. P.

Bridge St. Church, Blythn The pastor, Dr. Edward E. Tytler, filled the pulpit at all services Sunday, July 12. Notwithstanding the excessive heat the three services were largely attended. In the morning Dr. Tytler delivered an enquiry, yet pracal, discourse on the theme "The Triumph of Right." The text was Galatians 6; "And let us not be weary in well doing; for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not." The pastor stressed the point, that at all times we should dedicate ourselves to do right, for while the God-fearing man may not seem to triumph at all times, yet it can be with truth right will triumph in the end, and we shall give our reward for so doing. Holy Communion was served immediately after the sermon. 366 persons were served. The Sunday school session followed. It was announced that the annual outing of the school will be held August 13 at Pelham Bay, Superintendent John D. Nixon stated that in keeping with past custom, the smaller children will be carried free. The Allen Christian Endeavor League of which Z Davis is the acting president, had a splendid program at its venerous services. Miss M. Cromer was mistress of ceremonies. Among those that took F. Bauer, Williams, T. Saunders, E. De Frette. Short tales were given by Rev. Coleman, Mra. G. Brawner, and Mrs. Venable. At the evening hour Dr. Tyler spoke from Titus 6:13. He said among other things, that whether we were Christians or not, all should have some certain view of life, in order to live intelligently. He spoke on Godly man and women, who were filial and godly just. Dr. Tyler mentioned the Picketts disaster, which recently occurred in Miss. and lamented on the fact that these people met their death while dancing and no thought of God was evident. Among the persons to join the church during the day were Miss Miner Jones, Mr and Mrs. A. Blanks, and Mrs. C. Genshaw. The members of the church are bending every effort to secure the first installment of the rally fund, which will be due July 26. The amount is $1,200. This will aid the trustees in meeting a very pressing obligation. Siloam Presbyterian Church The morning hour of worship at Siloam, Rev George Shippen Stark pastor took his text from St Luke 16:8; portraying virility the lessons to be gained from the parable of the Unjust Steward. The keynote of his sermon was if Christians and the christian church were as prompt and earnest and perserverant in their zeal of work as The Unjust Steward in preparing himself to meet the difficult of his fraud and face his master, there could be nothing that could not be accomplished for Christ and His kingdom. Added to membership: Penman Lovingo, 222 Clifton, place The Children's Hour before the morning service is growing in attendance and the children greatly enjoy the story-telling of the Bible narrations. Simeon Blanks, superintendent of Concord Baptist Sunday school gave an interesting talk to the children and to the delight of the children and grown-ups. We hope to have Mr.anks with us again some time in the very near future. The school took our large number on its outing to Rockaway Beach on Thursday. They left the Church house in houses at nine o'clock and a delightful day was enjoyed by at the Reach. The School hopes to make the outing annual to some of the nearby parks or beaches. ST.

Dr. W. C. Brown, preached to perhaps the largest audience of the summer-season, which filled the main auditorium of the church. The theme of his text was: "The Enlargement of the Church." Rev Brown spoke strongly and convincingly. During his discourse he urged his heart to read the Bible and learn of man, and so live that they be better prepared to meet the growing demands of the day. "Enlarge the church by lengthening the cause and strengthening the state" urged the pastor. "There never was, and never will be a substitute for the grace of Jesus Christ." Mr Johnson of San Francisco, Cal., rendered two solos during the course of the service, swaying the congregation with his rich voice. The Rt. Rev W. L. Lee bishop of the Fourth Episcopal District was on the rostrum. The annual sermon of the hairdressers of Brooklyn was preached at the Old Folks' Home by Rev. W. C. Brown. The choir accompanied the pastor. Superintendent F. A. Ray conducted a wide-awake Sunday school at the usual hour. In the audience was Miss Amelia H. W. Williams of Charlotte, N.

BREATHE FRESH AIR all Under the Auspices of the Episcopal Church --- No Political Barrier Against Dempsey Wills Bout, Says Senator Walker Father of Present Boxing Law In State of New York, Says Dempsey Must Fight Wills Or Be Retired State Senator James J. Walker, one of the leading exponents of boxing and father of the law which legalized that sport in New York gave out some opinions about the heavyweight situation the other day in an interview which appeared in the New York Daily News. His denial of political interference in the Dempsey-Wills bout was emphatic. The article was as follows: PAGE SIX State Sen SPORT CO By WILLIAM No Political Barrier A Wills Bout, S Father of Present Boxing Law Dempsey Must Fight State Senator James J. Walker, one and father of the law which legalized some opinions about the heavyweight view which appeared in the New York inference in the Dempsey-Wills boun follows: By HARRY NEWMAN Jack Dempsey ought to fight or reture That is the way Senator Jimmy Walker, father of the boxing law and a stout exponent of fair play, feels about it. Senator Jim- also says that if there were any racial distinction or political interference that would stop a match between the champion and Harry Wills, then he would be one of the first to ask that the current boxing law be wiped off the statute Senator Walker created the law under which boxing has operated here for the last five years and he knows his subject better than any other man in the state. The dapper little fellow insists that he would not lend his name to the measure for one moment if there were any disruption as to race, creed or color. Reformers Rouse Wrath The dynamic law maker loves boxing. It is his one pet thought. His wrath is aroused by the suggestion that it is a match between Dempsey and Wills were made it would result in the reformers starting a hullaboon that would bring about the repeal of his law. Just make that suggestion to Jim and you will draw down a blast on your head, as only Senator Jim can deliver it. We dropped in on Jimmy the other day to get the low down on the whole works to find out from hilt just felt about a match between Dempsey and Wills. James sure did put his card right on the table and called a spade by its correct name. Well Why Not? "Why not a Dempsey and Willis match?" was Jim's rapid fire shot when we scarcely finished our first query. "If I thought that there were any racial distinction or prejudices cutting in on the boxing game I would ask that the bill be killed to megon. That is my stand and has been my stand ever since the inception of the law that intermarriage. Then we shot an interrogation about telecommuting having the game about telecommuting if the colored man and Dempsey fought and the little senator unhuckled a flock of adjectives which nearly swept us out of the room. The People Rule "I don't think that any law, enacted by the sovereign power of the state—the legislature can be repealed by the mere prejudices of any fanatics or professional reformers. The vast majority of the people of this state are manifestly for fair play and have no sympathy for the charlatan who makes a living by being against something." "I don't know what the boxing commission is going to do about Dempsey and his challengers," added the Senator "but I do know that the commission is made up of as fine a set of men as could be found in the state. They have administered the law to the satisfaction of every man. Messes Parley, Muldoon, Brower and the other members of the board were picked by Gov. Smith, and I was happy to recommend them because they were men of intelligence and courage. They are left entirely free without suggestions from any source that I know of—That is the only way to keep boxing on the high plane it enjoys today." Straight Talk. This "I personally believe that Kearna and Dempsey ought to fish or cut bait. In other words, Dempsey ought to fight or reture. "I have a high personal regard for Dempsey, but I have a higher regard for the boxing fans who support the game. They are entitled to know whether or not we have an active champion of the world. "There has never been any political opposition to a match between Jack Dempsey and Harry Wills that I know of and I think I would have heard something about it. It is more conjecture on the part of some folks who think that the political-leaders are afraid of such a match because one of the principals happens to be a colored man. "I wouldn't hesitate to expose such a situation if it prevailed."

Several of the clubs in the League are having the worst season in their history and since there is little prospect of improving their team this season, they want to forego playing the remainder of their schedule. Some of these clubs are in a bad way financially and are reported for sale. This latter statement is said to apply to the Wilmington Potomac, of which George Robinson is the owner. The Wilmington team has had a hard time since it was first organized as the Wilmington Potomac two years ago. Because of the unwillingness of the Washington fans to support this team, it was moved to Wilmington at the beginning of the season. But the Wilmington rans seem equally unwilling to support a league team. The New York and Brooklyn teams are also having a bad season but both have strong financial backing and their owners have no intention of selling. It is reported that if the commissioners find it necessary to go back to a six club league, the Wilmington team and the Cuban Stars will more than likely be the two teams dropped. Oscar Charleston Is Eastern League's Top Of The List Batter Oscar Charleston Is Eastern League's Top Of The List Batter Apparently, managerial duties are resting lightly upon the shoulders of Oscar Charleston, manager of the Harrushburg Giants, the team topping the list in the Eastern circuit. Aside from keeping his club up in the running, the drought field leader of Colonel Strothers Law Makers has clotted the combined offerings of the league hurriers for a 455 mark that stands out like a beacon light for the rest of the players to shoot at. In addition to hustling Oscar has drove out six home runs and is only topped by his team mate, Walter Cannady who is showing the way in distance hitting, with eight homers to his credit. Charleston is also second in base thefts, having stolen nine sacks, running closely behind George Carr of the Hildale team, who has stolen 14 bases. Another material aid to the fast traveling Harrisburg team is Jack Shackelford, the sensational young third baseman, who bails from Wiley College, Texas. Shackelford has horned into the select class of 400 hitters and has hit safely in all but two games since joining the Harrisburg team. Gistentainer of Harrisburg with five wins and no defeats is the leading pitcher Corbett of Harrisburg and. Recorder and Hubbard of the Royal Giants, also have clean clays with three four and two victories, respectively.

But got until the big lefthander had been subjected to a severe lacing and forced to retire in favor of Currie in the fifth inning, did the verdict swing toward the Hilldale team and Winters. The Royals put up the most stubborn kind of resistance and at the half way mark of the fifth inning were leading by a six to three score. Irving Brooks and Johnson Hill supplied the bulk of the potent punch exhibited by the Flatbush team. On two occasions Brooks landed on Winters' shoots for drives that were good for the circuit. Johnson Hill also slapped out a home fun with two men on the paths. Brooks first home run came in the fourth inning with no one on the bases. The drive was the longest of the game and cleared the deep center field fence with plenty to spare. The center fielder's second clout came in the fifth inning directly behind Hill's homer, both drives went into the centerfield bleachers. The fifth frame was even more productive for the home team and netted the Boldenites seven markers. Recorder Holland on the mound in this inning and blanked the Daisies in the remaining rounds.

On July 11, Hilldale made it two straight from the Brooklyn Royal Giants when the Darbytes hit Cannonball Dick Redding at opportunity times and salted away another Eastern League victory, score 6 to 4. By winning the Darby Dassies ran their streak of consecutive wins in league games by an even dozen and are now virtually trampling on the heels of the Harrisburg Giants, for the top rung of the league standing. Nils Winters again started gainst the Flatbush foe and again was forced to seek shelter under a barrage of base blows but even with his retirement Winters is credited with another win to his fast growing string. Rube Currie again stepped into the firehose as a relief hurler and spiked the enemies guns. The Hildale team got off to a lead in the first mating, when Carr singled to right and went all the way to third when Watson fumbled the ball. Mackey singled and Carr crossed the plate.

KITTS SATURDAY AND LOSES TO PROGRESSIVES ON SUNDAY AT VAN CORTLANDT PARK-BERMUDA WINS United Cricket Champions Defeat Brooklyn Club By 106 Runs Before Crowd Of 1000 Fans Approximately 1000 cricket fans witnessed the interesting weekend match at Commercial Feld in Brooklyn when the pick of the Brooklyn Cricket League went down in defeat before the unbeaten United Cricket team-of the Brooklyn League. Both eleven were in good form but Ohl what a team the Brooklyn boys met when they struck the champions. At the call of time the score was: United Cricket Champions 201 for 6 wickets. Brooklyn Club, 95 for 6 wickets. After putting 201 runs on the board for 5 wickets, United declared their inning closed. The bright spot of the inning was the splendid defense of Griffin, who made 49 runs, not out. With about one and a half hours to spare, they attempted to mow down the pick of the Brooklyn League. The congenial skipper, A. Jones, realized the task of beating the score of his opponents to be one of great magnitude and cautioned his men. In the next over, Sealey was taken behind the wicket off the heavy deliveries of R. Allder. Two other batsmen quickly returned to the pavilion shortly afterwards, being run out. A defensive stand was then made by Griffin, the leading batsman of the league, and the wonderful Brandford. This partnership brought applause from the spectators. Hooking and cutting was in order. Griffin was caught after he had made 26 runs. The game was well played. The bowlers for the League, Brandford and Nichols, hore the burden and came out with credit. Six bowlers were used by the opponents who were anxious to dismiss the leagues eleven, but to no avail.

C. State Prison Interracial Baseball In N. C. State Prison (From The Greensboro Daily News) Raleigh, July 4—Black prisoners in a threeding game this afternoon against the whites on the penitentiary diamond, defeated the whites by a score of 11 to 7 before a great crowd of ordinary spectators and special admirers. The game between the races was made the more luminous by the roots of the feminine population. There were 39 black and only eight white. When pep was demanded the Negro girls supplied it on quantities bitterly strange to the white girls. There were more white outsiders, perhaps, but the fans of the masonless persecution were more numerous among the blacks, so that the white had the disadvantage of playing on more field. Idapton, life terminer, who escaped the elective chair by executive grace, led the whites. He knocked a home run and by superb sprinting made it after sliding across the plate. Ezzy Steele, Forsthie life terminer, starred for the blacks by hitting a home run and making it without the spectacular slide. The game, which was witnessed by State Treasurer Ben Lacy was treated by him among the best that he has seen. The press on officials called it a triple tame. The dispatching of 27 jets both teams all to piece. I was very fatal to the whites who had much difficulty in getting up inane. These race games are entirely pleasing to the players and have resulted in no friction. They take place every Saturday afternoon. To lay the game followed a big holiday and the prisoners put it on playing. The games were recently resumed by Warden Norman who believes in sports and takes in all the games that he can attend. Girls In Florence Mills' Act Doing A Turn In Vautleville Girls In Florence Mills' Act Doing A Turn In Vautleville While Florence Mills is taking a rest, following her appearance at the Palace with the Will Vodrey orchestra, the members of her act are doing a vaudeville whirl on their own. Seems Miss Mills is under special contract to Lew Leslie, who, however, does not hold the supporting members of the act she has been offering in vaudeville. It is said the figure demanded by Leslie for Miss Mills and turn was more than some of the local houses desiring her could pay. The Mills turn was wanted by the uptown houses catering to colored patronage. The price was too much. With Miss Mills out of the act, Manager Snyder of the Lincoln (Harlem) arranged for a special booking for the Will Vodrey musicians, headed by Will Tyler, leader, and Johnny Dunn, connectus, to play his house, with Alma Smith (Miss Mills) understudy), as singing comedienne and Johnny Nit as principal dancer.

Picked Colored Team Defeats White Team Picked By Norris There were excellent cricket matches at Van Courtlandt Park and the New York Oval, Saturday and Sunday, July 11 and 12. A large audience greeted the well known players at both fields. Among the fans were women and children. The mixed match in which the best white cricketers contended for the pick of the colored cricket clubs drew an enthusiastic crowd to the green grounds, who saw the colored players win easily. Saturday the Spartans were defeated by the Bermuda Eleven in the New York Oval. The team was made up of young men, for the most part of whom gave an exhibition of professional cricket. Young Butterfield, as a bowler, was a treat to cricket fans. Simpson proved himself to be a wonderful player. Sunday's game at the Oval was rather a one sided game. The other players were picked from the Brooklyn Club, the Manor Field Club, the Island and Newark Clubs, captained by A. Norris, who presented Best homlang, the Australian champion batman. The colored eleven was a select bunch of the best in the New York League, among whom were A. Simpson, E. H. Margeston, G. Birmingham and H. Simond. The bowling of the white eleven was rather weak in the other hand, the fielding of the colored boys was too much on opponents. The score Sunday at the Oval was: Captain Norris' Eleven, 17, Club, 250, Saturday's score was: Spartans, 124—Bermuda, 146, kets. The Cosmopolitan Leaguge matches at the Park was a Saturday, July 11, the Georgetown, 77, St. Kitts, 76. Sunday, the Oregon boys lost by the score of 74 to the Progressives' 140, for 8 wickets Progressives Defeat Georgetown By Score of 140 To 74 The Cosmopolitan League match, Sunday, July 11, at Van Gogh Park was between the Progressive Cricket Club and Georgetown. The Progressives won by a score of 140 for 8 wickets to Georgetown. J. Duncan scored 77 runs before he got bowled by Norgrove. He scored 24 and also fell a victim of Norgrove, the left hand bowler of Georgetown. When Georgetown went in to bat, they had a poor start and a calling of time, 7.30, A. K. Prour was holding the bowling of the Progress to a stand still. At one time, things began to look like a draw, then Baleyny got caught. The other two payers could not make a stand with Dugo who batted the inning through, scoring 29, not out. St. Kitts Loses To Georgetown, Sunday, By One Run Georgetown won from St. Kitts at Van Cortlandt Park, Sunday, one run. It was a very interesting match. Georgetown won the trophy went in to bat, scoring 77 runs. St. Kitts followed with their inning and had a hard job trying to score but failed. St. Kitts made 76 runs. The only players in double figures for Georgetown were H. Jackson, 15 and L. Shepherd. Watley of St. Kitts, who made 26 was the only one on his side to make double figures. New Cricket Players Are Being Sought By Big Clubs In order to improve the cricket matches, hand give the fans the m for their money, the different managers are constantly on the lookout new players to supplant those who drop out and to fill vacancies that from time to time. There is at present an opening for a good cricket a well organized club. This writer will give information to any one interested. - Cancelled Games To Be Played Sunday, July 19 Sunday is an off day in the Cosmopolitan League but there will be an interesting game at Van Cortlandt Park just the same.

DAVIS, REPEAT THEIR PROGRAM receiving to a very cordial invitation from Mr. Samuel J. Davis, New Recreation live wire; I went up to that beautiful little saubur on Monday to listen to a piano recital by the music pupils of his talented daughter, Marie P. Davis. This marked a second hearing, for the New Roath this program, for the first rendering had been at the St. Catharine M. J. Zion Church, Rev. W. O. Carrington, pastor, on the evening of it wasable was this first occasion that Misa Davis was requested and urged to present the affair, this time, the 13th, at Bethesda Baptist Church, of which the Rev J. B. Boddie is pastor. And the auditorium was completely filled with an audience that was in complete sympathy, with and appreciative of the effort of each pupil, from the tyro of just a few months' study to those who applications had extended over a period of several years. Misa Davis has only been teaching about five years. I understand. It was gratifying to note that this young woman is giving to her pupils an ink into the work of the great masters, for on the program were communications by Bach, Gounod, Haydn, Chopin, Schubert, of the strictly classical, with the lighter and more modern music of Chaminade, Moskowitz, and others. The young folks did remarkably well, showing that their teacher, has cared for the benefit of conscientious, consecrated, and well-equipped students. She is a pupil herself of C. R. Burutham, at his New York studio, who was present to enjoy the efforts of his pupil's charges, and to encourage her and them in their work. Among the more advanced pupils, the most interesting offerings were a hand rendition, by Marie Grimes and Louisa Dowling at one pano, A. Smith and Gertrude Long at another, playing the Andante from Hadna's Surprise Symphony"; the Bach-Gounod "Ave Maria," as a duet by Rohla Haines and Miss Davis; and a Durand Waltz for eight hands, by Ruby Harris Mary Brodie, Wilhelmina Brown and Catherine; Richardson. The numbers previously given by the last named four girls had already been them as the most developed of Miss Davis' pupils and their ensembles was of a high order. As a conclusion of the program, a free will offering was taken in interest for the future Missionary, Workers of the New York State Baptist Convention. Mr. Gertrude Boddie, chairman, and brief words of congratulation and advice were given the pupils by Lucien H. White of The New York Press P.C. Alleyne of the A.M. E. Zion Church, and Mr Burnham. He took part in the recital in addition to those named, were Hakey Dixon, Edward, Middleton, Darwyn Harvey, Mary Robinson, Thelma Brown, Laphine Sanz, Estelle Howard, Drusilla and Dorcas Boddie, Cyril Hasson, Frances Harris, Rachel Reddick, Alice Smith, Jane Howze, Gertrude Ling and William Robinson. The pastor, Dr. Boddie, superintended the taking of the offering and condition was pronounced by Father Jackson of the A. M. E. Zion Church. The return to New York was in company with Bishop and Mrs. C. C. Avery and little May, of Manhattan. Mrs. R. L. Dougherty and her little Moe with Mrs. Morris, of Jamaica, as guests of Mr. Davis and his older daughter, in his big 7-passenger touring car. William Lawrence On Visit To New York W. A. Lawrence, pianist, for two seasons the accompanist for Roland Haremer both in Europe and in his American concert tours, did not accompany Mr. Hayes, back to Europe this summer, but is doing some work with Bustin Haremer. He was in New York for two last week, was a pleasure to meet him for a moment or two in company with friend, Lawrence Brown, who was an accompanist also for Mr Hayes, being filled that position on the occasion of Mr Hayes' first invasion of England. Mr. Brown is remaining in New York for a season, doing some splendid work in composition and arranging of Negro folk songs, as well as gooing with Paul Robeson in his popular recitals devoted to race music.

Maine Legislates Against Spread of Venereal Disease As an additional measure for the protection of the community from venereal infection the Eighty-second Legislature of the State of Maine passed an amendment whereby superintendents of State, county, and municipal charitable or correctional institutions are required to report to the State Department of Public Health any inmate about to be refeited and who is afflicted with a venereal disease in an infectious form. The report is to be made not later than fourteen days before the estimated date of release, so that the State Department of Public Health may 'take necessary measures to protect others from such infection' It has been generally accepted by the various states, says the U.S. Public Health Service, that provision should be made for the medical examination, care and treatment of venereally afflicted inmates of state institutions, and that such examinations care and treatment are usually provided. The Maine amendment, requiring the report of infectious cases before their release, is a significant venereal disease control measure.

More News Concerning "Chocolate Kiddies" "Variety. New York's leading theatrical weekly, gives in its last issue the following information concerning the "Chocolate Kiddies" the Negro show taken recently to Berlin Germany, by Arthur S. Lyons, who is fairly well known among certain circles in New York City. Says "Variety." In Berlin the American colored show "Chocolate Kiddies," has brought about the same feeling among German and Continental managers through asking a guarantee of $700 daily (one performance) for bookings outside of the Admiral Palast, where the show is currently playing under a contract for eight weeks. Arthur S. Lyons, a New York agent who promoted the show to the other side and then agreed to accept $400 weekly for his share, regardless, has been making some statements in Berlin. He said they had to secure certain colored performers in New York, eating that as a reason for the reported high salaries for Germany the troupe is said to receive Choristers. it is claimed, get $50 a week, while Sam Wooding for his hand of 11 pieces receives $1,200. These statements are from Lyons, therefore not authentic. He also says Greenlee and Drayton receive $400 weekly salary. Among those who have refused to accept a reduction in salary are Greenlee and Drayton and some others, who will leave after the eight weeks with others replacing them as the show travels. No one in the management of the coined company understand German audiences Two are Russians and the other two New Yorkers, the New Yorkers' first visit to Germany. Two or three comedy scenes, it is said would have made the show a sensational success The management was in fear of attempting comedy calling for dialog in English This could have been obviated, according to the German showmen by giving hints as to the plot, permitting the Germans to follow it. Several matinees were given in English in Berlin last season with all getting over "Lady Winde, mere's Fan" was one of the English spoken plays. R, N. J. HOMESTEAD Country Road EWOOD AND NYACK for Road House. J. EDMEAD IN AVENUE , N. Y. One of our great newspapers writers told me recently that my column in The New York Age is not just what it should be — that although perhaps, I stated facts many times, it would not go over because, in plain words, facts should be sugar coated and that this column bordered more on the editorial order, and very few people read or cared about editorials. Be that as it may, your writer shall ever continue to state the facts to the best of his understanding. Many of the troubles of musicians and entertainers spring from IDLE-NESS. It is written somewhere "THAT AN IDLE BRAIN IS THE DEVIL'S WORKSHOP." However, there is much good to be gotten, out of all the troubles we experience. Top prices is not the panacea for all ills of whatever kind. TWELVE ($12) dollars in TOWN and BOURTEEN ($16 dollars or more OUT of town, for five (5) hikes or less, may draw leaders and combinations together, but it takes more than that to keep them together. Good leaders, and, side men of a successful combination must start in business with something more than MONEY. By superior capacity and extensive knowledge a new man often xiggs to favor—and jealousy is the apprehension of SUPERIORITY. Singers and Players alike are still creatures of impulse and instinct, reacting emotionally, but rarely logically, to the experience of life. Musicians and entertainers should remember it is to live twice when you can enjoy the recollection of your former life, and logic is to teach us the right use of our reason or intellectual powers." Nothing is more unjust than an ignorant music leader who thinks nothing regarding the management of his combination done properly unless he himself has done it. Promoters, Contractors, Managers and Leaders must remember there are few musicians or entertainers so insensible that their affections cannot be gained by plain facts, their confidence by sincerity, their hatred by storm or neglect THE TRUE ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE IS THE FIRMEST PILLAR OF GOOD GOVERNMENT The discovery of what is true, and the practice of that which is good, are the two most important objects of PHILOSOPHY. Every musician and entertainer's life lies within the present, for the past is spent and done with and the future is uncertain TRUTH, LIKE THE SUN, SUBMITS TO BE OBSCURED; BUT, LIKE THE SUN, ONLY FOR A TIME-AND WILL RISE AGAIN THEATRICAL JOFTINGS By POB SLATER "7-11" Co., with Howard and Brown and Cook and Smith, are in their last week at the Columbia Theatre, New York City, closing a four weeks' run.

Rufus P Turner, expert colored radio amateur, was awarded the second commercial operator's license in the third district. His license was granted him through competitive examinations held in Baltimore, Maryland. There is a great demand for commercial licenses and the fact that Turner was the second person to be passed favorably upon speaks well for his ability in the field of radio communication. Another fact which must be considered too is the limited number of such licenses that will be issued. Although yet a young man not out of his teens, Rufus Turner has proved himself to be one of the outstanding colored amateurs in this country. His work and experiments have brought him fame unsurpassed. One of his many accomplishments was the building of the smallest radio set in the world. For this he received a prize and the set which was built on an ordinary pin was exhibited at the National Radio Show held here last year at Madison Square Garden. The set was also exhibited at the Radio Show at Wardman Park Hotel in Washington, D. C. Young Turner is a student at Armstrong Tech and one of the founders of the radio club of that school. He operates station SLF. He has written radio articles for several magazines and is a contributor for newspapers as well. Church and the Radio Nationwide interest is being shown in the broadcasting of Sunday religious services, which is playing an important part in increasing the interest in radio.

Public Library A concerted effort is being made to secure from the New York City Board of Estimate and Apportionment a larger appropriation for the working needs of the New York Public Library, one of the most vital and important of the city's agencies for general uplift and cultural growth. A circular, acutely phrased, is being circulated among the people of the city showing that white the value of the library system has steadily increased, the Board of Estimate has gradually cut down the yearly appropriations. In 1920, $127,000 was appropriated for new books as against $61,000 in 1925. Library workers are often forced to resign because the salaries are not sufficient for their needs. Service given the public library includes the loaning of nine and a half million books for home use; more than 80,000 pictures loaned; 38,000 specially printed books for the blind; 2,000 story hour and reading club meetings for children; 400 special book stations maintained in institutions and outlying districts, issuing more than 400,000 books; and the holding of hundreds of literary and educational meetings in library auditoriums. The reading public is asked to cooperate in this effort to secure additional funds by writing members of the Board of Estimate and urging that a larger appropriation be included in the budget for 1925, which is taken up for consideration the last of July. Send a letter to Mayor Hylan, chairman; Comptroller Chas. L. Craig; Aldermanic President W. T. Collins; Borough President, Julius Miller, Joseph A. Guider, Henry Bruckner, Maurice E.

The main floor of the building is now given over to the Harlem Bible Book Company, of which a Mr. Barrow is the proprietor. A blaze was discovered in the store about 3 a.m. by Officer Smith of the 16th Precinct, who immediately turned in an alarm. Before the firemen could reach the building, however, the other floors were filled with smoke and the occupants were in a panic. Patrolman Louis Chisum, who occupies the top floor, was on duty, but his wife and infant baby were awakened by the smoke and noise. Unlike other tenants Mrs. Chisum did not lose her head. Goling to the fire escape, she handed the baby across to Fireman Hamilton who, with Fireman Healey, helped her to safety afterwards. The firemen then assisted Patrolman Clusum's, 12-year old brother and a little sister to safety. Later they brought Mr. Barrow and another tenant, scantily clothed, to safety. The fire was soon gotten under control but the damage done-by water is said to have completely ruined the book stock in the first floor store.
