I reasoned with him in a peaceable way. I pointed out that he was the only cooled man in the neighborhood which depended for its property values on its exclusiveness and that in this case we would buy $9,500 for his property. Brown declined the offer." In refusing the offer Mr Brown stated that he did not want to sell because he had bought the place for a permanent home. Since his neighbors had tried to mitigate him, as a matter of principle he would not sell now at any price.

Office of Imperial Lodge Secretary Is Broken Into—$400 Lost Early Wednesday morning the office of Charles M Hanson, secretary of the Imperial Lodge of Elks, 160 West 129th street, was broken into and more than $400 was taken from the safe. The Lodge held a meeting Tuesday night which lasted until 2 a.m. on Wednesday. All members were out of the building by two-thirty, but the police believe that some outside person secreted himself somewhere about the building and broke into the office after everyone had gone. Then for the belief is that most of the outside doors were unlocked, allowing how the robber effected an entrance into the building. As luck would have it a large deposit had been made Tuesday and the money taken was the receipts of the evening's meeting Alonzo Smith, janitor of the building, discovered the robbery at 9 o'clock and promptly reported it to the police.

According to reports Leader Conklin's original plan was to give Mr. Billiplus the aldermanic nomination and put up a white candidate for the Assembly, but the opposition of his colored conferences was so strong that he is alleged to have changed his plan and announced in opening the meeting that it was his opinion that both offices should go to the colored office year. There were three candidates in the aldermanic race-Titlecdore B. Smith, former Alderman George W. Harris, and Mrs. Hortense Warner.

At the preliminary conference on the Monday previous, Mr. Conklin told the County Committee of the "Valley" of his intention to give Mr. Billups the aldermanic nomination, and to name a white candidate for the Assembly. The committee voiced strong opposition to this plan and at a second conference on Friday presented a letter setting forth their position in the matter. This letter was as follows: July 17, 1925. Mr. Robert S. Conklin, Executive-Member, 21st Assembly District, 3410 Broadway, New York City, Dept Sir. Referring to your request that we suggest to you persons whom in our judgment would be available for the Party nomination for Member of Assembly, and for Member of the Board of Aldermen, we regret to advise that we have not been able to arrive as a helpful conclusion. In view of the conditions we wish to record a willingness to accept any program determined upon by you in the above respects, with assurance that such program will have our earnest support. However, for reasons with which you are familiar we desire to make the following, reservation: That in our opinion it would be extremely unwise and detrimental to the interests of the organization, as well as to the interests of colored members of the Party to depart from the present alignment, by which the Party nominated for the Assembly and the Board of Aldermen are chosen from the eastern end, or colored section of the district.

Alexander King, who for the past three years, has been, superintendent of College Station Branch Post Office, has been transferred and given an increase in pay. Mr. King received a communication on Monday, July 20, from Postmaster John J. Kelly informing him of the transfer and stating that his salary as superintendent would be increased from $2,000, to $3,000 per year. He is to be in charge of Station U, located at 226. East 106th street near Third Avenue. Lawrence Gough succeeds him as the head of the helper Station.

J. S. HARTEN, WHO PRESIDED Propaganda Against the Race Alleged to Be Behind Police Policy Which Led To The Arrest of Three Colored Men, All of Whom Have Been Released Nearly a thousand men and women filled the main auditorium of Holy Trinity Baptist Church, DeKalb avenue, Brooklyn, in response to a call issued by the pastor of that church, Dr. Rev. Thomas S. Harten, in behalf of the local branch, of which he is president, of the National Equal Rights League, the purpose of the meeting being the voicing of protests as to the apparent propaganda of racial prejudice and oppression carried on by the police force in the Borough of Brooklyn, particularly since the recent murder of a white girl, Florence Kane, whose dead body was found in a vacant lot out in the Flatbush section. The audience was earnestly in sympathy with the purpose of the meeting, and as the various speakers gave utterance to opinions as to the unfair injustice attitude of the constabulary and judiciary departments of the city's governmental administration, the people expressed audibly, enthusiastically and vociferously their approval. To Protest Police Policy. In opening the meeting, following the singing or hymns by the church choir and the offering of an invocation by the Rev Dr. H. H. Proctor, pastor of Nazarene Congregational Church, Dr Harten emphasized the thought that the principal object of the gathering was to send forth so powerful a protest that Brooklyn's police would be stopped from their present apparent police of going into the homes of innocent black men and dragging them forth to prison to appease the passions of certain group of race-hating whites. Dr. Harten asserted, with emphasis, that he did not believe any colored man was guilty of the Kane murder, and that when the guilty man found, as found he would be Brooklyn will find that it was a white man. The police should stop arresting colored men simply because they had been guilty of some crime fifteen years ago, said the speaker. "If every white man in Brooklyn with a criminal record should be arrested on suspicion, there would not be room enough in the jails, station houses, penitentiaries to hold them. Some Whites Are Friends. There is a splendid type of white man in Brooklyn, said Dr Harten, and this type is the black man's friend, but there is another type whose heart is filled with the southern crackers. ROMOTED DID FROM COLLEGE POSTOFFICE STATION U word warrants it, and not segregate them in Harlem Mr. King has been in the postal service for more than 20 years and has made an enviable record. During the World War he was assistant superintendent of the Wall Street Branch Post Office. Later he was remoted by President Wilson, but upon the return of the Republicans to power in 1921, he was again made assistant superintendent and transferred to the College Station After a few months he was promoted to the superintendency Mr. King was born in Jetersberg, Va., but was brought to New York as a boy and received his education in the public and high schools of this city. He is a trustee of St. Mark's M.E. Church and is active in several civic organizations of Greater New York. forth to prison to appease the passions of certain group of race-hating whites. Dr. Harten asserted, with emphasis, that he did not believe any colored man, was guilty of the Kane murder, and that when the guilty man was found, as found he will be Brooklyn will find that it was a white man. The police should stop arresting colored men simply because they had been guilty of some crime fifteen years ago, said the speaker. "If every white man in Brooklyn with a criminal record should be arrested on suspicion, there would not be room enough in the jails, station houses, penitentiaries to hold them. Some Whites Are Friends There is a splendid type of white man in Brooklyn, said Dr Harten, and this type is the black man's friend, but there is another type whose heart is filled with the southern cracker's spirit of animosity and prejudice against the Negro. He referred to lynchings in the South in which, when it was too late, it was found that the victim was innocent, and he cured the record of the Negro slaves during the Civil War, when they were left in sole charge of the white women and girls of the South, while the fathers, brothers and sons were fighting to perpetuate slavery. Not one woman's virtue was violated, said he. The speaker said that the rank and file of the white race was not against the Negro, and that America is the best place in the world for the race. And so, said he, the Negro is coming to Brooklyn officials, asking to be protected and believes he will be. Dr. Proctor Speaks. Dr Henry Hugh Prodor was the second speaker. He cited advantages possessed by Brooklyn which make it an ideal home city but declared he had been puzzled at recent happenings. Overalls, he said, were ordinarily a badge of honor, but later for a man to be seen in overalls was to invite the police to grab him as a suspected criminal. Dr. Proctor endorsed the opinion of the judge and the agreed grown man had committed the Kean PAGE TWO murder. He said that the white man can do one thing: a black man can not do. The white man can black his face and pass for a Negry, but there is no way under the sun by which a Negro can make himself up to look like a white man. "He may bleach his skin and straighten his hair, but he is still Aunt Hagar's son!" said the speaker. Not Conforming Crime. Emphasis was laid on the statement that this meeting was not for the condoning of crime or protecting of criminals. But to arrest an innocent man, thrust him in jail, broadcast the story of suspicion which is woven around him, and to brand him in the eyes of the world as a suspected criminal, is brand his very soul and his him an enemy to the society which is responsible for his humiliation, and to commit a grievous wrong against a rage. The ballot was cited as a potential remedy. Dr. Proctor admonished his hearers to mark the men who are responsible for these injustices—both those who commit them and those who condone them—and use the ballot against them. He advised the men to keep busy, keep at work, stay on the job. He advised every youge to join the church, and he urged the race to raise the standards of morality and obedience. Bootlegging, he said, incited crime, and is a mortal wound to the Negro race. Until church members quit patronizing the bootlegger, the prohibition law will never be enforced. Women Take A Hand. Mrs. Mary C. Lawton, for ten years president of the Empire State Federation had been wondering why someone had not spoken, out for justice in this matter. "Nobody respects a coward, and nobody respects a people who take everything without offering a protest," said she. Continuing, "Mrs. Lawton declared that the race itself must draw a line between the respectable element of the rate and the shiftless, no-account crowd that is continually dragging themselves and their people down. Referring to the ballot as a weapon of defense, Mrs. Lawton taunted the men with having winked at things too long but now, she says, women are in politics and a different attitude will be assumed. There is less leniency in the innocent Negroes in connection with the Kane girl's murder, and that is that any Negro, regardless of his station in life, is a potential victim of this unjust and unfair method. She suggested that a committee should be named to go before District Attorney Dodd and present to him in a dignified and intelligent manner the race's attitude in this matter. She suggested attack a popular chord and the audience gave it unanimous approval. Thinks Police Know Man. The Rev. J. H. McMullen, pastor of Ralph Avenue A. M. E. Zion Church, was the next speaker, and he expressed turpities at the matter printed in the daily papers concerning the Kane case. He deprecated the printing of news of the arrests and charges against the black men in screaming big type, while news of their innocence and subsequent release was printed in type to small that a microscope is needed to discover it. Referring to the Kane murder, Dr. McMullen asserted that he believed the police had some knowledge of the criminal, and that he was not a black man. Further, said he, there are no colored people living in the neighborhood where the crime was committed, and very few are ever seen there. Why did not the police follow up the clue given by a milkman who saw two women get out of an automobiles body, the body of a man, and whose report of the discovery? asked the speaker. He advanced the opinion that attendant circumstances pointed to the family of the slain girl having some knowledge concerning the crime that was being covered up to prevent a possibly disgraceful revelation. Must Forestall Such Action. The final speaker of the evening was the Rev. George Fraser Miller, rector of St Augustine P. E. Church, who declared that the race must he alive always to forestall just such developments as this in all parts of the country. He referred to the case of Samuel Brown, whose home was stoned on Staten Island, and to the Negro doctor in Detroit against whom the whites had made a demonstration amounting to a giot because he wanted to live in a home he had purchased in their neighborhood. The audience gave enthusiastic approval of the sentiment expressed by Rector Miller that instead of feeling it an honor to move next to a white family, he considered that he was stewing honor on the neighborhood where he said he is to live wherever it is able to buy. The Negro must continue to protest, he said; even if there is no immediate tangible result. The ballot must be used wisely, and the race must not forget to put men and measures above parity fealty. There are active watchful witnesses, an constant alertness intended to every prejudicial and proscriptive action of those who would race 34 Join Equal Rights League An appeal by Dr. Harten for new members in the local branch of the National Equal Rights League, in order that the fight may be continued, brought thirty-four men ad women who paid admission fee A general collection was taken for expenses connected with the meeting. In accordance with the suggestion made by Mrs. Lawton, a committee was named to call on District Attorney Dodd, composed of the Revs H H Proctor, T Harten, J H McMullen, Vane, Geo F Miller, Thos. W Cooper, A C. Matthews and Timothy White; with Frank H Gilbert and representatives of the various fraternal organizations of the community all of which were represented in the gathering. A feature in the gathering was the singing of the church choir which was out in full number under the capable leadership of the chorister, R A Austin, whose cornet added to the music CERTAIN FEDERAL PROHIBITION AGENTS, HAVING ILLCIT BOOTLEG ASSOCIATION FEAR IMPENDING DEPARTMENTAL SHAKEUP effectiveness. The Uhers' League of Long Island and Brooklyn furnished the uhlers for he meeting, the men being garbed in tuxedos, wearing the League Early Tuesday morning, Dr. Harten was in communication with District Attorney Dodd, and asked him to refer with the race committee at 2 p.m. the same day. Judge Dodd Defends Himself. The following committee called on District Attorney Dodd; Mrs. Tandon, Rev. Robert H. H. Proctor, Frasier Miller and Mesra. Frank Gilbert and R. Alwyr Austin. District Attorney Dodd started the conference by denying the statement that was attributed to him by the newspapers to the effect that he had managed to murder. He also defended the newspaper statements attributed to Rev. MeeLullen were an injustice to him. These statements were in effect that both the District Attorney and the police department knew who who committed the crime. The police department was the murdered were in in jail five minutes after he learned who he was. Dr. Harten stated that Dr. McMul- tain, a former judge of the Kansas court, and not to judge Dodd. Reviews The Katie Murder. He then went on to review the crime and stated that it just happened that the first colored man arrested was loitering about the elevated station the day after the crime was committed and was arrested for vagrancy. The man could not give a straight account of himself and the police seized upon the possibility that he had something to prove. The colored man arrested was a colored jailer who lived in the viability and had spent seven and a half years in Sing Sig prison. Places Onus On Police. The District Attorney declared that he knew nothing of the arrest of a third man, and stated that the committee was confusing the District Attorney's office with the Police Department. Oftimes men were arrested whom he knew nothing about. He then went on to declare his interest in the colored citizens and pointed to his appointment of an Assistant District Attorney for Kings County from the colored race as evidence of his lack of prejudice. Rev Harten, leader of the delegation asked that the influence of the District Attorney's office be used to stop the prejudices in the Police Department against colored citizens. This Mr. Dodd said he would do and also said that he would not be involved in any meeting of colored citizens to explain his position in the case. The conference adjourned with the District Attorney posing for a picture with the delegation. Man Killed By Car In St. Nicholas Avenue; Autoist Speeds Away Man Killed By Car In St. Nicholas Avenue; Autoist Speeds Away Edward Alexander, 25, 140 West 142nd street, was instantly killed by an auto that struck him at 141st street and St Nicholas avenue at 6:50 a.m. Sunday morning. The driver of the car did not stop, but speeded away. The car was pronounced dead on arrival at the Harlem Hospital by Gnusberg, Patroldman Claude Wyatt reported the accident and Detective Connally has been assigned to round up the driver who is charged with criminal negligence, causing the man's death. The accident happened while Alexander was passing to the west side of St Nicholas avenue, between 140th and 141st streets, about the middle of the block. The auto was going north in St Nicholas avenue. Alexander was killed on the east side of St Nicholas avenue. His body was identified later by a friend. An eye witness to the accident was Philip Meyerwirt, 237 East 100th street. The victim of the auto mishap was 5 feet, 6 inches, weight 135 pounds, of dark complexion; he wore a straw hat, blue pencil hated suit, blue neck tie, white shirt, tan shoes, silk sox and garters Virginians Injured In Auto Accident In W. Va. Roanoke, Va—A F Brooks and J T Hughes were seriously injured near Bluefield, W Va. Sunday, when the car in which they were motoring turned uicule on a steep embankment Mr. Brooks was killed, but he later rallied. Both men are badly cut and bruised but they are reported as doing nicely under the circumstances. In this connection, it is said that any agent, whose activities have been particularly effective in the Herlem section, but who has made very few actual cases in this neighborhood, is wondering what to do. He is worried and, being worried, is hesitating whether or not to attempt to get out by way of the resignation route before Secretary Andrew's searchlight begins to penetrate the dark recesses of his associations with former dellacatessen and cigar store bobbleggers who operate on Lenax avenue. He wondered if his resignation will be accepted if he should send it in or if heiling it in will precipitate the avalanche of investigation which when it does come, will swamp him when it does come. And many others, who have knowledge of his past activities, are watching and wondering too. $80,000 Heiress Wed To Young Dental Student Trenton, N. J.-Mrs. H.

Home Por Bale, New York City, Long Island Army—see The Age Classified page—age 16-18 'As a direct result of the 'exposure' The Age of the selling of poison figur in' the bootlegging joint at 12 Wet 153st set, known 'as Sawdust Inn, owned by a somewhat mysterious individual who seems to be known only by the pseudonym 'Red', Federal Agents Giller, Quattro and O'Rourke staged a 'raid on the place Thursday night, July 16, about the poisoning of a girl named 'Red' himself and about thirty prints of alleged whiskey and gin. Taken to the West 135th street station, "Red" gave evidence of the elusivehess which has enabled him to operate so extensively—and, to be known, and still not known among a large circle of the underworld. When arraigned, he allowed himself to be set down as "Red", but which asked for his real name, gave that of his Negro bartender, "Eddie Huntley", and then said that he lives at "170 East 117th street." Haz Many Names In the preliminary hearing, "Red" testified that he was not connected with the place, but was a collector for a cigar firm, and that he called there to collect for cigars. He could give no satisfactory explanation as to why he chose so late an hour to do his collecting, and eventually was, held in $500 bail for further hearing. Since the death of the musician told of 'm the last two issues of The Age, persistent effort has been made to discover "Red's" right name, but without success. In one instance, he used the name "Green." In another, he used the name he was known as "Arthro White". In this latest instance, it is shown that he did not hesitate, even in custody of Federal officers, to successfully camouflage himself by posing under the name of his own hired man Eddie Hunter, the Negro bassist and the time saver with it at least for the time now. Poison Whiskey Deaths What might be considered a coincidence, but what is really just a repetition of an every day occurrehe, is that the daily papers, on the day following the raid on Sawdust Inty, carried a report showing that five deaths had occurred from alcohol poison within thirty minutes of the men's woman, and in addition were a number of cases treated at the hospitals. "The woman and three of the men gathered around her. The other man died at Harlem Hospital. Padlocked the Willis Place It seems that the long fight made by The Age against the bootlegging carried on in the premises at 2360 Seventh avenue, owned by Robert W. Willis, a colored man who has been prominently identified with church activities in the city, is finally coming to a successful end. Information is received that an order has been issued by the United States Court against the saffoon conducted in this place by Frank Skokke. The police records show that the items made in this sale, the Willis, the owner, claim a long time that he had no knowledge of the sort of business carried on there. This despite the fact that several witnesses have alleged that they saw him on several occasions in the act of what appeared to be sampling the goods-passed over the counter by Blastone's hired men. Anotherraid that presents what seems to be a matter for investigation by the United States Attorney's Office, 002 West 135th street, at 8th avenue, when four barrels of beer alleged to contain more than the legal one half of one percent alcohol and a large quantity of alleged alcoholic liquors were seized. This place had been closed by a Federal stock order. However, it appears that the store was afterward divided by a partition, and in the front part a drug store was installed. The bootlegging point jailed on this occasion was in the rear of these premises, and it seems that the lock order or the must have perjury. Perhaps the Federal Attorney's office can uncover the mystery, and perhaps inflict a jail sentence. Westfield, N. J., Folks Hear Dr. Wm. P. Hayes Lecture On Holy Land Westfield, N. J. —On Saturday afternoon, July 11, the people of Westfield gathered in large numbers at the residence of Mrs Louisa Randolph, 204 Plainfield avenue, for a lecture-recital and lawn fete, the principal feature of which was a lecture by the Rev. Dr. William P. Hayes, pastor of Mt Oliveet Baptist Church, New York City, on his recent trip through the Holy Land. The affair was for the benefit of Mt Oliveet's building fund. The weather was ideal and the lawn was tastefully decorated and lighted with Japanese lanterns. Camp chairs and seats were placed conveniently around the grounds. The Rev. Charles Collier was master of ceremonies and introduced Dr Hayes, who spoke interestingly for an hour. A musical program included vocal numbers by John Taylor, Edward Blair, Mrs Macalhull Mulford, all of Plainfield, and Miss Vivien Collier. A piano solo was played by Miss Frances Mulford Miss Mulford and Miss Grace Randolph rendered a piano duet A variety of refreshments were dispensed. Visitors were present from behind the workbench. Orange, Surfim, Philharmon and Camden. A goodly sum, realised. LYNCHING DECREASE CREDITED TO EFFORT OF LOCAL SHERIFFS Commendation Given Officers By The Interracial Commission Atlanta, Ga. To the endeavors of sheriffs and other peace officers in the performance of duty—sometimes dangerous and on occasion unpopular—to be credited the steady decrease in the number of lynchings, the Commission on Interritical Cooperation holds in a letter sent the sheriffs of the several Southern States. The growing number of "preventions" of mob violence in proportion to the decreasing number of "lynchings," the letter sets out, is clearly the result of the officers, vigilance, and at the same time polite "the way to the final extinction of mob violence," which pencil American crime by faithful officers, backed by an aroused public sentiment. The Commission's letter to the sheriffs, signed by Dr. M. Ashby Jones, Chairman, and Will W. Alexander, director, is as follows: Commends The Sheriffs "During the last three years America's annual lynching record has decreased 70 per cent—from 58 in 1922 to 28 in 1923 and to 16 last year. This is most gratifying and has occasioned natign-wide comment. "That this trend is due largely to the vigilance of sheriffs is clearly indicated by a study of the records. In there were fifteen lynchings and only 14 responseventions; in 1924 the figures were reversed—16 lynchings and 45 preventions. These figures tee the story and point the way to the final extinction of mob violence. In this effort our officers have undoubtedly had and will have the full approval and support of unlightened public opinion in the South. In successfully opposing mobs these officers are doing something more than protecting their prisoners, whether or innocent, they are protecting the law and nation. They are upholding the good name of their communities, their states and their country. They are defending civilization itself against the threat of anarchy."

Virgin Island Council Is Dissolved; Situation Acute "Governor Wollamia again' disproved the St. Croix, Virgin Islands Colonial Council, upon the ground that they refused to recognize the credentials of two of his appointees," is the substance of a tablagram received today by the American Civil Liberties Union. The Council had refused to seat A. E. Stakeman, a lawyer and judge of the St Croix Police Court, and one Armstrong, two of the Governor's appointees. The Council based its refusal upon an act of Congress passed in July 1921, which states that only citizens of the United States or of the Virgin Islands shall be eligible as Council members. The dissolution of the Council by the governor places the governmental machinery of the Islands in a state of chaos. An official government ruling, defining the status of Stakeman and others, is being sought by the American Civil Liberties Union and other organizations interested in the wellfare of the Virgin Islands.

WHITES ARE URGED TO OPEN STORES AND HOTELS TO NEGRO ELKS Richmond Times - Dispatch Says City Should Act As Host To Elk Body Thes following editorial appeared in the Richmond, Va. Times-Dispatch Monday, July 20. RICHMOND'S·PLAIN DUTY Richmond, next month will be the convention city of the largest number of delegates ever to assemble here. It is expected that 40,000 persons, hailing from every State in the Union will come to the Virginia capital for this meeting. Relatively few business men and civic leaders know the convention is to be the field. It has not been held in the newspapers concerning it. Consequently, scarcely any thought has been given the matter. The time is come, not only to think about this convention, but to prepare for it. Under the best possible conditions, an indus of 40,000 persons in a serious matter for a city the size of Richmond. If such a great number of delegates is to be called for, extraordinary, planning is required. And this particular committee will likewise offer its advice with which Richmond dealt. If presents its own peculiar problem. Those thousands of delegates, who are to come, here next month are colored Elks, gathering for their annual conclave. Failures for/feeding and logging so great a number of colored visitors are lacking in Richmond. They must be created. There are no hotels in Richmond. There are no restaurants at which there are few. Here it is a problem of the various one, which the citizens of Richmond should help their colored friends solve. Failure to do everything, possible to make the delegates comfortable, so they can really enjoy, their stay in the city, would be shameful. Not only would it be bad policy, since it would give opportunity to meet at Richmond, it would be wrong to treat the colored people here, having every right, in the world to expect sympathetic co-operation from white neighbors. It is Richard's plain duty to begin at once to prepare for this convention. Nothing should be left undone to make it a great success. Not only the chief仆elpai government officials, but private citizens and their institutions, as well ought to contribute their share, toward solving the problem of caring for the children of colored visitors who will be benefited for the convention. Not in so would be a blinder of the first kind, and it would be a poor recollection of the, friendliness toward coloured people of Richmond and the white people always have professed. The American Federation of Labor, through its executive council, announces that it will be forbidding employees to take time off to participate in special events. The union will publish lower hour restrictions, by July 1. The AFL-CIO Hill director, Department of Industrial Relations, National Urban League, with William Greene, president of the American Federation of Labor, successor to the late Samuel Gimperis, various internationalists of the Federations are to be asked to remove prohibitive restrictions against Negro or membership. In this connection, the National Industrial Conference has expressed willingness to investigate vocational opportunities for Negroes. The national industry has schools for Negroes to attend, may play definite industrial role, and the union for blacks. Negro labor. By WM. ANTHONY AARY Hampton, Va.; *Mn* and women in the classrooms teach persons and not mere subjects, which at best are simply vehicles for the transmission of knowledge; teachers must teach men and women what they want them to be, to do, and to think; and teachers must teach people how to live, said Dr. Carl C. Taylor, Rai- nell N. O'Connell of the Graduate College, North Carolina State College, in a recent address to the members of the Hampton Institute, summer school on "Educating a Citizen for Life and for Living." In an previous address on "Social Forces in Rural Life," delivered to ministers, farmers and teachers, Dr. Taylor said: "It is better for a man to own, plan and farm five acres of his own land, and he rewards for his own ac- complishments work twenty acres for someone else, cannot have complete self-respect and do develop their full capacities and at the same time work for a person." Dr. Taylor, made a strong plea for cooperation as a mutual aid which will help men in the art of practical life. He also yourselves with others voluntarily voluntarily be common task is joy, to be defined as such group action is slavery. In cooperation there is the possibility of a real leadership. In corporate enterprise there is usually dictatorship. The scientific farmer is dealing with spiritual force. He nurtures God's gift and gend, assists God in creation. Religion and spirituality consist in taking life and nature as that God would make out of the all that God would have them become. Rural life needs them not as substitutes for material and tary values, but in addition to them. Men need to nurture and cultivate spiritual values just as they do their soil and bank accounts.

Lee Reynolds, of the Presbyterian Church, Newark, preaching on Vacations, a few Sundays, ago said: "In these days a vacation is necessary in order that one may obtain nature, a tonic for a tired life, it is not a concession to laxiness but a stimmer, just so greater and better work. We all need it and ought to have it. It is wisdom's program for recuperation." The vacation season is the great homing time of the human family. The months of winter a poll is put out of mind; vexing occupations, of daily boulderlay, for forgotten, and we return for a breath, short as it may be, to the open arms of the universal mother—Nature. The strength of the hills descend to bless us with renewed vim and vigor as we fare forth in open spaces. We can say, with the palestmist, "Surely the mountains bring him north food, where all the beasts in the field play. He leath under the shady trees, uses the covert of the reed and ferns. The shady trees cover him with their shadow, the willows of the brook compass him about." Nature plays no favorites. The sun shine and rains fall, alike for the poor and the rich. The breeder cares one and all with equal softness. The grandour of mountains and beauty of valleys may be enjoyed by the great and the lowly. Days of outdoor enjoyment will bring new strength and vigor to the body. A great pervading spirit of universal kioship is abroad on land and sea. As the great leveller, Nature has no equal. Within the boundaries of distant horizon lines where earth and sky come together, she holds rock and stream and beast and man in one great brotherhood. "Back to Nature" is a good slogan for the next few weeks. Tis summer now, sweet, winsome July, Beneath whose magic wand The earth lies wreathed in lovliness And melody, profound Of song birds trilling in the trees And crickets on the ground. But fall will come, and frost and wind Some bright October day, And all will be a bed of death Where once grew flowers gay: So haste thee now and in thy heart Store bits of it away.

Items For The Housewife Items For The Housewife Graham breed is wholesome and sweet and ought to be eaten frequently in every family, particularly by young people whose bodies and teeth are forming. Eggs are much more nourishing when cooked by being covered with boiling water and allowed to stand for five minutes than when boiled for three minutes. During the summer months instead of making pastry over a hot fire, try serving fresh fruit. It is far better for your family, besides saving fuel and time. When serving iceed drinks be careful not to over sweeten them. Cold drinks are to quench thirst, not to induce it. When lemons are low in price, housewives hesitate to lay in a supply, because they may not keep. If the juice is squeezed from the lemons and sugar added to the proportion of one pound of sugar to one dozen lemons, and the juice heated in the oven, they will then into glass fruit jars or bottles, it will keep, indefinitely, and may be used in place of the fresh fruit for lemonade or pies. Cover the ink spot with salt and lemon juice a number of hours, then wash in thoroughly clear water, then handle, rub well with half a siphon, dipped in salt. They will be beautifully white. Afterwards wash them well in cold water and dry thoroughly. Health and Beauty Hints The days when men and women looked upon the, sticky, half-dead-and alive woman as an interesting object are not the days on the calendar for the year 1925. These days call for health and strength which may be acquired by right habits. There is no excuse, in these days, for women not being good-looking at least. No matter how poor your features are, there are certain tricks face and face and face may be framed to look—well, to put it mildly—attractively at least. The practice of deep breathing will help in many ways. If a girl is small in chest measurement, stoop shouldered and with a bad posture and will practice deep breathing exercises every day she will find a great improvement in a few months. Deep breathing will also help your complexion by stirring up the circulation but to get any benefit one must keep it up daily and not for one or two days and leave it off. Idleness and health make poor partners. "Courtesy will prevent accidents." Of course, and if a study is made of the growing number of accidents a fairly accurate idea may be obtained of about how much courtesy there is running around loose.-Detroit Free Press.

FAYERWEATHER — Treasurer, Empire State Federation 1095 Fark Place, Brooklyn, N. X. BALONEY IN AMERICA After three years of intensive urging I am glad to announce that I have finally persuaded the celebrated observer, B. Minus Baloney, to visit America. To some of our read perverse the muse, B. Minus Baloney is just baloney. But in the world of fetters, I. Minus mean letters, he is Baloney known internationally. His cable accepting my invitation reads as follows: Dear Tom: Am sailing on the S. S. S. S. Peanut today. Will reach New York sometime sooner or later. Foolishly yours, BALONEY (P. S. I wish I could shimmy like my sister Kate). It can readily be seen from the tone of his cable that B. Minus Baloney is a literary. genius. It might be well at this point to give a brief sketch of his career, to wit: It will be remembered that during the rise and fall of the Jazzbohemian Empire, it was the ravings of Baloney that caused the abdication of King Dumbell IH: And it is rumored on good books like Minus Baloney's pretty tellin' tale that became of sally. Besides being among women and 'clown' among the women and 'small boys', B. Minus Baloney holds the hot dog eating championship of Jazzbohemia, sometimes eating as many as three or four barkers during the rainy season. All in all I feel very fortunate in having Professor Baloney hang out with me for a time. And while he is here I shall secure some of his views on topics of the day. Starting with his arrival an article will appear each week on matters of interest to the American public in general and the Google in particular. Watch developments next week about B. Minus Baloney, the man who, in the face of constant refusal and many jail sentences, still has courage enough to panhade a dime. I thank you. The Empire State Federation held its fifteenth convention at Newburgh, N. Y. July 7, 8, 9, under auror. Kotie the Helping Hand Club Mrs. M. Deyes president. As a loyal member of the Federation, also as an officer reelected for the fourth time, it wish to correct the mistreatment in your last issue which said our esteemed and highly honored Secretary of State, Mrs. Fletcher Skippa was lifted to much praise and appreciation. The Federation of State did not appear guilty of the sessions, although he name was on the program, nor did we receive any message, of explanation or negate. Nor did the Mayor of Newburgh put in his appearance, but on Wednesday night there came an representative of the Mayor who made a few belated expenses for his high chief, the Mayor. Wherefore the chairman of the executive board gave him the benefit of the dobbit. There were a number of others on the program who were not present and sent no word. Why should he have been present and have stood the test for years feel it is an injustice, to have such false statements made. Our ex-president, Mrs. M. C. Lawton, whom we have stood by through thick and thin for many years, did not "DEG LINE NRENOMINATION" to the presidency, but when the time, was near at hand for the election she, was taken seriously ill and had to be fed out of the meeting. Therefore, her name was not on the list of nominations. But /with audacious affection she delegated a club women from Georgia to preside-over our meeting to carry out her desires. As women we coincided, thinking she was in a serious condition. The nominating committee brought in the names of Addie Hinton Floyd and Josephine Holmes Frazier, for the presidency. The balloting resulted —Hunton-Floyd, 34; Holmes-Frazier, 31. Only 65 delegates were present, out of 108 clubs only 34 were registered, the smallest number in the Federation's history. One of the reasons that Brooklyn clubs that they did not get their credentials or any word concerning the meeting until two weeks before date. Some did not receive at all their notifications. However, "All's well that ends well." The Empire State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs has lost its usefulness in attracting club women. First of all, to be head of an organization does not mean to sit still and only enjoy the means best achieved. All of the clubs in theiment in all branches of work which pertain to the achievements of women; also, to give examples to other bodies which are doing the same work. Today we need women with honesty and loyal purpose to carry on the work with its vast amount of diversions. We need clean and upright men and women to be our guide, spiritually, politically and socially, so as to give to the youth of the coming age our best examples. Today we are in an opportune and advanced age. It has often been repeated that the greatest gift we as individuals can bestow on any one is a good example. We need women to take time to decipher club work and its needs. Some twenty-eight years ago the first federated body of our women was started by a women of culture, understanding and good will for her fellow women—Mrs. Josephine St. Pierre Ruffin called "The Mother of Clubs."

The acquisition of a piece of property, either for a home or for business purposes, is but the first step in the assumption of many responsibilities. If the property is taken with a mortgage as part of the purchase price, the new owner has the responsibility of providing for the prompt payment of interest at stated periods and the laying aside of a sinking fund to meet the principal at the expiration of the mortgage. Then there are taxes and water rates and assessments for city improvements which have to be paid at regular intervals, to avoid penalties being added and their entry as liens on the property. The terms of the mortgage usually require the prompt payment of these taxes as a condition for the continuance of the mortgage loan. The owner of real estate has the further responsibility of maintaining the value of his property by keeping it in good repair. He must have his roof and his plumbing looked after at regular periods to prevent leaks and consequent damage to walls and ceilings. He must renew the paint on the iron and woodwork of the exterior, while at the same time re-papering and re-painting the interior. There are besides these material needs many other ways in which the value of property can be advanced, or by the neglect of such observance correspondingly depreciated. If business signs are permitted on the building, care should be taken to make them uniform and attractive. The inmates of the offices or apartments should avoid continuous hanging out of the windows, as such conduct is hurtful to a building or a neighborhood. Care should be taken to dispose of trash and refuse materials in the receptacles provided for that purpose and avoid littering the sidewalks or street with papers and refuse. With proper care given to these matters, the ownership of property may be made both pleasant and profitable. With the increase of property holding by the race in Harlem, it would be well for more general attention to be given to the responsibilities incurred by the ownership of real estate. MORE MONEY FOR LIBRARIES. More money is needed for the upkeep and operation of the New York Public Library with its numerous branches. The appropriation made by the city for the purchase of books has been cut down each year since 1920, until of late years it has been but half the amount then allowed. The result has been that the stock of books has fallen off, showing a decrease of over 45,000 volumes within five years. While the high cost of living in New York City is generally recognized, the library workers have never been paid a living wage. They are paid less than any other professional group of city employees, much less than the same class of workers in such cities as Detroit and Cleveland. Nearly half of these city workers receive between $922 and 1229 per year, without the prospect of a pension granted to other city workers. It is stated that fully one-half of the library staff resign each year, principally because they find they cannot live on the salaries paid them. The library serves the people of this city in a variety of ways. Last year over nine and a half million books were lent to borrowers for home use. More than eighty thousand pictures were lent, together with thirty-eight thousand books specially printed for the blind. The library service held over two thousand story hour and reading club meetings for children, many exhibitions, and hundreds of literary and educational meetings in library auditoriums. The library also maintained over four hundred special book stations in institutions and outlying districts through which more than 400,000 books were issued. The New York Public Library ranks as the greatest library in the world. It supplements the work of the public schools, affording every resident of the city the opportunity for mental improvement before and after his school days are over. It should receive the same measure of support as an educational institution that is given the public school system. The Board of Estimate complying the mayor, the comptroller, president, or the board of aldermen, and the fiveorough presidents, fixes the amount of the appropriation for the public library. To maintain its position as the greatest of all libraries, it should be given sufficient funds to replenish its supply of books and to pay adequate salaries to its employees. The uses of a public library are so essential to the upbuilding of the community that there should be no hesitation in making the appropriations for its support ample and generous. EFFICIENT WORKERS NEEDED. The need for efficiency in service or in workmanship was emphasized by several incidents of the past week. A report came from Atlantic City that colored waiters had been replaced by white ones, in many of the large hotels, because of the quality of service given by them had deteriorated, or so it was claimed. The need for efficiency in service or workmanship was emphasized by several incidents of the past week. A report came from Atlantic City that colored waiters had replaced by white ones, in many large hotels, because of the quality of service given by them had deteriorated, it was claimed. Not many years ago the various brands of service in most American hotels were by colored employees. Especially as this true of the dining room service which boasted colored men as waiters and head waiters. Among the latter were men of strong personality, who forced rigid discipline among their subordinates and developed a perfection of soe that gave general satisfaction. Since the retirement of many of the waiters from active service there has been a decline in the number of first-class employees employing this class of help. Many instances they have been replaced byites on the plea of obtaining better service. Some critics say that the color waiters failed to keep up with the time that the quality of their service deteriorated for lack of training. After the retirement of the veteran heads of the service their places were not filled by men of the same character. Hence, the incentive promotion was lacking to induce capita to undergo the training necessary with altered conditions. In the trades a tendency toward the same success of weeding out colored workers has manifested. The labor unions have many cases opened their doors to qualified workers of the race, and as a result Nines have found employment as plasterer, brickmasons. Some of these have made hard and have kept constantly on the job, working as regularly as their white fellow workers. Others, however, have cause complaint to be made by employers, they work regularly one week; they take next week off, regardless of the employer's desire to complete his contractors, it is said; will work three days and take a lay-off. This intermittent style of labor does not either the demands of the contractor does it meet the needs of the building, which demand steady work in instruction to meet the need for more findings. These skilled workers who have a fortunate enough to secure union cards employment on union jobs; should necessity of making good on the job be only doing their work well, but keep that it steadily and regularly. It will not nor them to trifle with their chances for employment by playing fast and loose with job. Efficiency in employment means not only using the work with average skill, but working on the job until the work is completed. The need for efficient workers is not constant, but it can only be satisfied by combining the qualities of skillless or workmanship with fidelity to the employer in meeting his needs for regular persistent devotion to the work in hand. Job can be trifled with, unless the work is desirous of forfeiting his reputation for efficiency. The Negro worker who trifles his job is a detriment to the whole race. Not many years ago the various branches of service in most American hotels were filled by colored employees. Especially was this true of the dining room service which boasted colored men as waiters and head waiters. Among the latter were men of strong personality, who enforced rigid discipline among their subordinates and developed a perfection of service that gave general satisfaction. Since the retirement of many of these headwaiters from active service there has been a decline in the number of firstclass hotels employing this class of help. In many instances they have been replaced by whites on the plan of obtaining better service. Some critics say that the colored waiters failed to keep up with the times and that the quality of their service degenerated for lack of training. After the retirement of the veteran heads of the service their places were not filled by men of the same character. Hence, the incentive of promotion was lacking to induce capable men to undergo the training necessary to cope with altered conditions.

Others, it is said, will work three days and then take a lay-off. This intermittent style of labor does not suit either the demands of the contractor, nor does it meet the needs of the building situation, which demand steady work in construction to meet the need for more buildings. These skilled workers who have been fortunate enough to secure union cards and employment on union jobs; should feel the necessity of making good on the job by not only doing their work well, but keeping at it steadily and regularly. It will not do for them to trifle with their chances for employment by playing fast and loose with a job. Efficiency in employment means not only doing the work with average skill, but sticking on the job until the work is completed. The need for efficient workers is great and constant, but it can only be satisfied by combining the qualities of skilled service or workmanship with fidelity to the employer in meeting his needs for regular and persistent devotion to the work in hand. No job can be trifled with, unless the worker is desirous of forfeiting his reputation for efficiency. The Negro worker who trifles with his job is a detriment to the whole race. CROOKED ENFORCEMENT. Washington dispatches convey the information that the Federal authorities at theional Capital have at last become concerned that corruption on a large scale presses among the forces charged with the enactment of prohibition. The charges with the Washington authorities are to embrace not only Federal enforce- t agents, but also state, county and municipal officers, including, sheriffs, judge police. The magnitude of the corrup- set forth is staged to have shocked the Washington dispatches convey the information that the Federal authorities at the National Capital have at last become convinced that corruption on a large scale prevails among the forces charged with the enforcement of prohibition. The charges filed with the Washington authorities are said to embrace not only Federal enforcement agents, but also state, county and municipal officers, including, sheriffs, judges and police. The magnitude of the corruption set forth is stated to have shocked the heads of departments, who have been so willfully blind to what was patent to observers in every section of the country. - The facts which have opened the eyes of the Washington officials were given in response to questionaires sent to all the United States attorneys. The result was a compilation giving the names and addresses of suspected officials throughout the country. At Washington this is said to have given Federal officials charged with the enforcement of prohibition an entirely new picture of the law enforcement probe law. In this is a correct statement of the case, if shows how hard it is to open the type of Federal department needs to make that they want to ignore. Taken for example the local enforcement situation in Hawaii as it has been outlined from week to week in the Age. Following the operations of the bootlegging trust and its movements from one location to another. This information has resulted in many raids by the police and enforcement agents, but in many cases these raids have been rendered abortive by advance notice having been given to the bootleggers by their confederates on the inside. This was indicative of the corruption that existed within the force and worked in the interest of those violating the law. Since the beginning of the enforcement system, there have been repeated scandals showing collusion on the part of those charged with enforcement. Some of these scandals have been ventilated in court proceedings, but rarely has a conviction followed. The influence of public sentiment has been too strong for juries to convict, on charges of misconduct or crime growing out of liquor violations in many of the cases brought to trial. Then too, in some cases the evidence has not been strong enough to warrant a conviction, whether designedly so or not. Prosecuting officers have been hindered in the trial of such cases by the niggardly policy of the government in appropriations for legal aid and additional office force. Political influence has been brought to bear in behalf of the bootleger and his allies. Where it has not been possible to cripple enforcement by corrupting honest enforcement officers, political pressure has been exerted to cripple their activity. The attitude of state and municipal authorities is also subject to political pressure, where the weapon of actual bribery of too vigilant an official cannot be used. In many of the smaller towns and villages the local officials are alleged to work hand in hand with the bootleggers. It is an axiom among touring parties anxious to find something to drink stronger than the legal half of one per cent, that the best guides to such sources of supply are to be found among the local constables. Now that the Washington officials have found out what the rest of the country knew some time ago, namely that prohibition enforcement has become a farce because of corruption among its agents, what are they going to do about it? Are they going to reorganize, the force and dismiss the graffters and politicians who work in the interest of the bootluggers, or are they going to reappoint the same fellows who are reported to have made fortunes out of prohibition enforcement as they work it? The enforcement policy has been crooked since its inception and it is going to be a hard job to straighten it out. FLORIDA'S WHIPPING BOSS. An Associated Press dispatch from Cross City, Fla., brought the news that Florida landlords flogging as a means of persuading labor out of the inmates of a convict camp, even when death results from that form of persuasion. We reproduce the dispatch announcing that decision, reached by a jury in the State that invites Northernners to settle within its, borders, and assist the greatest land boom inaugurated in the South. It reads: An Associated Press dispatch from Cross City, Fla., brought the news that Florida endorses flogging as a means of persuading labor out of the inmates of a convict camp, even when death results from that form of persuasion. We reproduce the dispatch announcing that decision, reached by a jury in the State that invites Northerners to settle within its borders and assist the greatest land boom inaugurated in the South. It reads: Thomas Walter Higginbottom, former Dixie County lumber camp "whipping boss," to-day was found not guilty by a Circuit Court jury on a second degree murder charge in connection with the slaying of Martin Tabert, North Dakota youth. A year ago Higginbottom was found guilty as charged but a new trial was granted by a Supreme Court decision. It will be remembered that this whipping boss was indicted in 1893 for causing the death of a white youth from North Dakota, who had been sent to the lumber camp in Dixie county for stealing a ride on a freight train. When the people of North Dakota found out that one of their citizens had been flogged to death in Florida, there was great indignation and the Florida authorities were quick to disclaim responsibility. Higginbottom, the whipping boss, was convicted of murder and the Florida legislature made a gesture of abolishing the use of the lash as a means of disciplining state and county prisoners. But no punishment was ever inflicted on the convicted whipping boss and a year later he was accused of flogging another convict to death, a Negro this time. And on a second trial of the Tabert charge, we heat that he is acquitted. This goes to show that popular sentiment in Florida is in favor of whipping convicts, even if death results from the unrestrained brutality of such whipping bosses as Higginbottom. The action of the legislature turns out to be an empty gesture, intended to throw dust into the eyes of the people of South Dakota and such other Northerners as may be beguiled into buying Florida real estate. There may be an appropriate place in the scheme of creation for such savage wielders of the lash as this man Higginbottom, who is undoubtedly usuranted in his murderous methods by the local sentiment of a Florida jury. The only function that The Age Readers' Forum A Jacksonville special to the Savannah Journal says that many Negroes are acquiring wealth as a result of the Florida land boom. It continued: The following are concrete examples of our people are doing. At Kailua on a New Year's Eve land over thirty years ago, as $1 a month sold it recently for $20,000. Another who paid $250 for a small tract of land way out received $12,000. The Manhattan beach near Jacksonville, which was purchased two years ago by a group of our business man for $45,000, had recently for $11,500, and had they paid the price, would be much more today. Opportunities to acquire wealth through handling real estate by our people are also here. A really man of this city recently bought a place of property, for $10,000, and had they paid the price, would be sold it for $5,500. Some of the things that the realty boom is doing for our people in Florida. This sounds like the silver timing that has been revealed within the dark cloud that has overtaking racial development in Florida. We suppose the fortunate realizers of these profits will sooner or later invest in Haitian equity. The article editor of the Star of Zion published at Charlotte, N. C., felt it incumbent to break a lance against the encroachments of modern science in the following paragraph: The doctors and scientists are continually taking the top out of life. They were not content to tell us that, nearly one million school children under ten years of age were found to have some form of tuberculosis, that "one million had spinal curvatures and six million had gaudicular diseases, that thirty, percent of all American school children, rich and poor, were underprisoned, but that the medical profession had some doubts as to the real value of milk as an adult food and that its free use may be more injurious than beneficial to menkind. What next? The next thing in order should be a new advertising campaign by the promoters of the milk trust, setting forth in glowing terms the nutritive value of that lactate fluid in building up the milk constitution and regenerating waste. This should restore milk to popular favor as a beverage for adults, at least until the doctors begin to doubt again. Denouncing the niggersly policy of the local school board in providing for the education of Negro children, the Houston, Texas, Informer said among other things: According to news items in the daily newspapers of Houston the house of education of the Houston Independent School District has awarded the tract for the erection of a high school for colored children in "deep" Third Ward, to cost (the building) around $70,000; nowwithstanding the fact that the site has not yet been secured. It is not the intention of The Informer to discuss the'proposed site for this colored high school, which, apparently, will be in close proximity to the pro- Editor of The New York Age: Let us all stop a while and study some of the doings of the Christian churches of today. It seems that we're not getting very far on our way to the promised heavenly land. We camped in the wilderness among grafted other tread of the feet of no good Samaritan may be heard. There seems to be no less grafting in the church of God in this day and time, than it to be found out yonder in the soil field of the world. And our fear of disclosing a shame on the Christian religion has thus far stayed the hand of theological investigation of the doings of the local ministers of the Gospel of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ There is too much graft (carried on by the pastors of churches and their self picked officials) being tolerated by the members in the Negro churches. To be successful in rounding up a big sum of money for a church, she scrimshing pastor goes into his study to get "easy money" from his flock. Perhaps one of these two plans loom up before him: Either buy some disgarded white church, in whose crevices the germs of hatred are hidden, and pay four times more than it is worth, pr tear down and rebuild, or disgrace the already occupied and suitably edifice, way the poor members' noses are kept on the grindstone trying to give when called upon in the never ceasing "Grand Ralligs". Hence, I repeat, there is as much shameful graft being carried on in the Negro churches as in the oil fields of this country, and some preachers are thought to be at the head of the disgraceful acts. It will be remembered that preachers give but very, very little. They preach to you and me, saying, "It is better to give than to receive." And yet the palms of their hands are always-itching to receive. Entirely by the colored race in buying buildings and remodeling churches when it can be done without. And when some of the members of their stock posed colored hospital in deep Third Ward but this paper does think that it is an outrage for the local school board to inquire the colored clientery, etc. says the schoolhouse of Homemade with a little old $70,000 miscellaneous building, when this others board has authorized the expenditure of more than $2,800,000 for white school sites and buildings out of the $3,000,000 bond. Some hoated for school organization purposes. On a percentage of population basis, it is claimed that the school board could have employed twenty five per cent of the board, issue for colored schools. The Uniformer says that less than $5000,000 for purchasing sites and creating buildings would be “a travesty on justice and a criminal outrage.” Its outspoken protest is in keeping with its morto: "It gets you told—nothing else." The growth of athletics and college fraternities as factors of racial development was indicated in the following news item taken from the Buffalo Americans. Defiant Hubbard, a great ally who participated in the police games at Erie Beach last Saturday, was welcomed to Buffalo by his brothers in fraternity, Phi Beta chapter of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity. Defiant Hubbard, his president of Muskegon High fraternity as the University of Michigan, No public reception was held for him due to the face that he had to leave immediately after the games Saturday night to participate in the national games in Los Angeles, Cal. A reception will be held for him upon his return from the coast. Adrian Buckner, the local star athlete, accompanied him to Los Angeles. Those who are inclined to bolster the importance of athletic sports in inspiring respect for the Negro race and bringing about equality of opportunity, underestimate the value of physical prowess with the average man. Our college fraternalities do well to honor their athletes. Referring to the death of a pioneer educator of the race a writer in the Louisville Leader said: The name of Peter H. Clark, may be new to most of our young people. But it is a name that they should know and revere. Peter H. Clark died in St. Louis two weeks ago at the rite of 92. weeks ago at the ripe age of 97. He began teaching at 19 in Cincinnati. O. later went to Rochester, N. Y. and assisted Fredrick Dogglass n publishing the Herald of Freedom—returned to Cincinnati and succeeded in having established there for Negro children—later opened in his own home a teacher training school to supply Negro teachers for Negro schools of Cincinnati. Peter H. Clark belonged to that school of early educators of the race, which furnished such conspicuous examples as the Rev. JohnPeterson and Prof. Charles L. Reason in New York and E. D. Bassett in Philadelphia. They left their impress' on the generations that received their schooling from them. fail to come up with their five, ten and fifteen or even twenty dollars, the pastors have nerve enough to stand up and bawl them out as "deadheads" and "drones" in the church. The faithful members get that kind of praise as a reward for their past loyalty to the church and the grateful pastor. Some preachers themselves need be born again, for they stand in the shoes of Nicodemus and know absolutely nothing about the spiritual birth. I do not wish it to be understood that I am fighting against the church No! be it far from me. For there is no bell that sounds more harming to our ears than that bell which calls us to the House of the Lord. Either do I wish it be understood that ministers are spoken of as graffers; for there are some among them who serve more praise than we are able to give them, but I feel at a loss for words to properly condemn these long coat polished theologians who are in the business of the "easy money" they can get out of their flocks in the name of being in the business for the saving of souls. This group owes to themselves to seek that spiritual bark of which Jesus spoke to Nicodemus. For they know nothing about it, but will need it further along when they go to press a dying pillow J C CUNNINGHAM 700 T Street. Washington, D.C. Lynching Record. Slowly Improving Major Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, has raised his statistics on lynchings during his six months of the present year. He is able to count up nine, distributed the basis of one tach to Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Utah and Virginia, with three to the account of Mississippi. All the victims were negroes as the offenses might indicate, four having been put to death for murder, two for assault, one for attacking a woman and two for attacking a child with intent. there were four more lynchings than the first six months of the pres- sident's year, but six less than for the next six months in 1923, and 21 less than the number lynched during the first six months of 1922.

Race Discrimination By Police From Brooklyn Daily Times It is a shame that the people of the Borough of Brooklyn should compiled to protest in a formal m meeting at the Holy Tempus Bap- tist Church, on DeKalb avenue against race discrimination by detectives and police in blundering attempts to solve crime mysteries, and that five hundred citizens should have been allowed to cheer attacks on the Military Commissioner and on Mayor Bryan's Administration and appeal colored voters to remember these on Election Day. The Eagle writes we were possible to say that the pro- speakers had been misinformed. Use luckily it is not possible. For in these columns we have already had occasion to note the sequel of the Kane murder, case. The detectives showed immediately what the Rev Thomas S. Harten of the Negro church called the disposition to pick up a Negro with or without a particle of eridence. One colored man, Johnson, was simply held about forty days in Raymond Street. Jail subjected every now and then to "third degree" examination and then discharged because there had never been a threat of proof against him. Two or three other Negroes were treated the same as bully. Meanwhile no intelligent effort seems to have been made to dismantle the revoking crime was committed or a white man. The motive is that if this is not rat hatred, not the Ku-Kluktun spirit at all, a desired to "save" faces of the investigators who have failed. In multitude of "suspect" there is safety against a storm of public indignation against incapacity. The Negroism of false arrest is commonly friendly and penitile. Sometimes he has a bad record; preferably an ex-convict would be chosen. The practise is bad. It deserves denunciation. It should be discouraged by magistrates.

Stratton Sends Thanks The following letter has been re- covered by the Pulman News Editor: Mr. James H. Hogans, The New York Age. Dear Sir, I beg to acknowledge your land consideration shown me in your new column of July 14, in which you made special reference to my career as a Pulman, porter, and also my food- ness for the red carnation, which is a part of my daily attitude, whether or off the road, and has been throughout my thirty-seven years service on the road. You have surely shown me marked respect in The New York Age, and I am greatly indicted to you and The Age. President Coolidge could not have felt prouder than I did, when I received your letter telling me of the great news. Everywhere I go, I hear people talking about, grasping what they saw in The New York Age. I shall be glad to do anything I can to further the interest of The New York Age. Believe me (Signed) JOHN R. STRATON, Albany, N. Y. STATION HE-A-L-T-H By Dr. B. S. HERBEN Of the New York. Tuberculosis and Health Association Have You Ever Had Boils? If not, you may not know. what to do if you get one, and if you have had boils, you may not know any more about what to do or what not to do when you did before. It is important to know what NOT to do, so I shall tell that first. Do NOT poulice a boil, and do not use hot compresses upon it. You come along with your protests and assurance that the poulice take out assurance that the boil come to a head better and that you have always used that method of treatment with succinate and that your mother before you and your grandmother before her always used poullices and hot compresses (A whisper in your ear told them once myself, didn't take a kike step and made me stop when I saw that heat softened the tissues and opened up more avenues for the staphylococcus and his million brothers. I am willing to get rid of one boil without inviting a hundred or even two more Heat is liable to spread the boil to his whole series of broth. It doesn't always so so, but it so frequently enough to make the practice inadvisable. The many antiseptics at the care stage of boils are practically less. The best treatment when you feel one coming on is the use of a piece of ice in a sterile piece of gel. When you see the first boil you do this where it becomes the coming it may check it. Do not excessive amount of water, and take a cathartic. If the "littles pot of agonies" come on to full development see a physician and get it lanced early and then take it home. Lance it yourself and NEVER squeeze a boil. You are liable to introduce other and more dangerous germs to the tissues or spread those already have. There is no sense running the risk of blood poison. A little antiseptic antitreatment gently over the surrounding may prevent the infection of other hair follicles in the neckhood. When one boil after another pears the use of *bacterins* is by the physician may be of the beat bacterins are those that the matter taken from the boil himself. This method is of no practical use for one boil. the services, at Mother Zion Church on Sunday morning were attended by a large congregation.

All of these wonderful sights, nothing other than bespoke the wonderful power of Jehovah. In wonderful there is greatness. This wonderful Jehovah is the embodiment of greatness. John Caesar and Napoleon were led to as great a personality as the wonderful personality, but he declared that short of equalling Jesus Christ in real grace.

Church A sermon of loveeous practical value was delivered, Sunday morning, by the Rev. A. G. Martin of Brodyllan. Not only first, but the atheistic virtue of the gospel delivered in a deliberate convincing preface, the want straighten, to the reader, the need to show the absolute necessity to show the absolute necessity and then the complete reward of waiting on the day's ascribing for the scriptural admonition. Waiting, as he explained it, means patiently and severally trusting in God. It is ours, be states, to trust in God, and we are united responses for all our material and spiritual significance. "Lynching Must Be Stopped" was the logo of the meeting held at the Lyckum at 4 o'clock. The Stop Lynching League of Colored Women, Worries of this city called to Salem with one of its series of publicity meetings preparatory to laminating its geographic campaign. It was a great opportunity to meet one of our progressive groups with determination that they held their plans for the war and lynching. As told by list, speakers the striking feature of this movement is that it will be composed entirely of women at this detainable crime. They plan by investment agitation in every district of the country to stir up sentiment so strong against Lynching that public opinion everywhere shall demand its abolition. Bruner, Mrs. E. Johnson, I. M. Blackstone, and Mrs. E. Rhoa. "Iighl The Highway Builder" is the topic of discussion at the Eoworth League service at seven o'clock, Mrs. Nathaniel Rev. Joseph Hill assistant to Rev.

The chair will remain intact all summer except for the last two weeks, in August. Professor Grant is arranging this so as to gain headway in the preparation of fall music and to afford the summer students and other visitors an opportunity to hear the chair. The excursion to Asbury Park last Thursday was a big success being one of the first of many excursions to be tempted by the church. The weather was ideal and the accommodations fine—all combined to make it a very satisfactory church during the summer include bus rides to New-Rochelle and Larkburg, New York. First Emmanuel Church Pastor Bolden-preached a topical sermon on the Holy Spirit at the communion services - Sunday morning, to a very appreciative and attentive congregation of friends. His text was: "And when he is come, will convict he world in respect of sin, and of righteousness and of judgment; of sin because they believe not. on me; of righteousness and of judgment; of sin because they behold me no more; of judgment because the Prince of this world has been judged." *St. John* 14:8, 11. 1. The Holy Spirit convicts the world in respect of righteousness; Jesus Christ the great Sainth Belief and trust in Him, destroys sin and sets in motion Holy Impulses. 2. The Holy Spirit convicts the world in respect of righteousness; Jesus Christ the great Sainth Belief and trust in Him, destroys sin and sets in motion Holy Impulses. 2. The Holy Spirit convicts the world in respect of righteousness and of our Lord's humanity, disbelief and return, to his Father, God. J. The Holy Spirit convicts the world in respect of judgment; Judgment is a Universal Idea; Our Lord the Emmanuel's Life and death upon the cross judged the world and cast the souls into the grave; The Holy Spirit will convine the world that evil, injustice and disease are unreal. But that Faith in our Lord Jesus. The Emmanuel creates Holy Desire and manifacts that we believers are in the kingdom of God. The mystery, death, hath been conquered and we will have everlasting life. BENEDICTION Grace be unto you, and Peace from Him which is, and which was, and which is to come, and from the seven Spirits which are before Him, and Jesus Christ who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the Prince of the kings of the earth, unto Him that loved us, and washed, unto Him that made us kings and pilates unto God and His Father; to Him be glory and dominion for ever and ever.

"God," it makes, "make any difference whether he man, keeper, Shifllah or whatever he keeps some other day of the week." asked,护徒. Strachan last Sunday night at the Harlem*September, Seventh Day. Adventist Church, where he met with the priest, ficturing on the importance of obedience to God. Said the speaker further: Any question that involves man's obdience or obdience to his Creator, is lifted from the category of divine importance. For man's importance. There is such thing certain—we must do what God tells us to do; because Heaven's God allows us to face all of who, all intuitively, deserves the best. Two objections are sufficient to substantiate this statement Matthew, 7:21 Revelations 22:14. "Folks may rock themselves to the ground, but they fail that the Babba question is not big enough to block the way of their eternal salvation. But those, very same folks may not lose sight of the requirement in a command of Jehovah. They had better open their eyes and reckon with the truth that all God commands carry with them the same great, great, great, a citing, violate one. Divine statute as it is to disregard another, The Sabbath question is surely a moral question, having to do with things that are right and things that are wrong.

X. Luke's Music Last Sunday is large, crowds filled every misha in St. Luke's Church, to welcome both the vicar the Rev. W. H. B. Hill and his pilgrimage to the Holy Land. Scores of people, who could not get into the crowded edifice were compelled to return, home disappointed. In the course of his lermon Father Durant and of the Christ had inspired him with greater seal to tell in the Master's vineyard. He told the congregation of the many places he had visited, including Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Jerusalem, Jaffa, and the Christ. Mr. Carmel, and other places. He said he was greatly impressed with the Garden of Gettikmeine and the Calvary. The tomb of Larusus stands at a living attestation. The consecratory, was greatly edified. Services next Sunday will be as usual, celebration of the Holy Communion at 7 a.m., morning prayer and sermon; at 11 a.m. morning prayer and sermon; at 8 p.m. the preached at every service will be the vicar, the Rev. E. Elliot-Durant. Mother Zion Cathedral Editor of The New York Age. I have read with despair interest your forceful editorial appeal, emasaging the value and importance of the new Mother Zion Church as related to the religious life of New York. This mighty island, metropolis if not only the most densely populated city in the world, but a geographical location possesses the most complex problems of modern civilization. Its heterogeneous amalgam of races possibly is without parallel in modern urban life. There are more Jews within its borders than there were in Jerusalem when it more Italian than in Naples, the largest city of Italy: over 800,000 more Germans than in any city excepting two in Germany more Irish than in Dublin, and the largest Afro-American population of any city in the world. Scattered throughout the city, clapping each other, are these varied nationalities. The crying need of strengthening the city churches for efficient mobilizing of their resources is self-evident. Commodious edifices with intelligent, capable directors guiding all forces, social, economic and spiritual resources must appeal to every thoughtful, lae-scene American citizen. Mother Zion's existence has never been conducted strictly along Methodistic denominational lives. Among its members and parishioners, all the elements of Protestantism, theology, mission and nominalism—"in its varied" activities and nominal lives. Among its members controlling motive have not been narrow sectarianism, but the broader purpose to serve. Especially has this admirable characteristic and catholic spirit been present in the ministry of the accomplished Dr. J. W. Brown, its present pastor. From a society of less than 300 effective members, its rapid growth to over 3,000 loyal, mastered adherents is expressive, masterful, devoted and unstinted. Abundant international cooperative bearings for a century has enriched the lives of many without its communion, and representative men and women in all parts of the country accustomed to the Mother Zion, North and South, East and West, the question is asked by its numerous admirers, "How is Mother Zion?" Dr. Brown has placed the organization in the vanguard of the great movement, the place and position are especially unique. Without the financial, resources of some societie, it beacon light extends far and wide, and -mutiludes are seeking it if its spriration and benediction. The proparity of the church is a distinct benefit to all the churches. The fundamental principle of the present ministry is "We grow strong physically as we exercise, we develop mental skills, we use our curiosity, the same we use our curiosity, spiritually only as we engage in active religious work." Dr. Brown believes the work of the church, while largely spiritual, is also psychological and social. It is the same work that same life given over later, to self-destruction. It is useless to educate the rising youth if subsequently such education is to be used in exading the law in illegitimate endavels. The imperative of the church is in the right stage of mind toward life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness. An enlistment authority tells us: "There is no co-ordination of humans that can remotely approach the power... of the Church, organizations for 'teaching in the church' and the highest to the lowest." No church in greater New York is giving itself more fully in getting the people to feel right toward each other, and co-operating for the common good than Mother Zion. In greater New York, the element of the city may be found within its walls weekly discussing the application of the Gospel no every day affair. Meth and women want to know what relationship the larger things of life as upheld by the church have to every day Mother Zion. More than satisfactory responses through clubs, forums, and other common meeting points. With fifty societies, constituting over 2,000 progressive workers, this church is a vitalizing force throughout quickening and powerful instrumentality in stimulating other communities. What is the greatest asset for the colored citizenship of Harlem, the first Afro-American city in the western world? natural restraint, not available labor, christian character, Mother Zion stands for hands directed by a true religion, and controlled by hearts, given to Jesus Christ. In a memorable Rudder delivered by Ambassador Harvey in London,1921 he said: "The real strength of a country is the armies or navies. A schoolhouse at this time is potent ultimately than a dreadnaught on the sea. One church did not kill is worth a score of regiments. All masked will THE material contrast between the structures with which he (Barker T. Washburn) began and the present great, ample and commodious plant in agriculture and encouraging as this it is. It is just an imperfect measure of D. Washburn's work and achievement. The education and annualuring out of two or three hundred courses a most commendable and helpful work to themselves and their families what he did and sought to do. His purpose was to bring from a center, like a bakerage house, for people living truth which must form the basis of race relations in his race, for others.

THE WASHINGTON POTOMACS GO TO THE WALLLINCOLN GIANTS GET THREE OF THEIR PLAYERS As predicted in The Age, last week, the Wilmington Potomac, of which George Robinson was the owner, could not stand the financial strain of a losing team and have broken up. On July 15 Mr. Robinson announced that he would be unable to pay salaries for the remainder of the season and almost all of his players left him. The Commissioners of the Eastern Colored League held a meeting in Philadelphia Tuesday night, July 24, to the if something couldn't be done to salvage the team but nothing despair was decided. The majority of the members were of the opinion, however, that the League should return to the six club basis, which would make it necessary to drop another team. In the meantime, the following players from the Potomacs have been signed by other teams: Greer to the Bacharach Giants; Brown and Dallard to the Baltimore Black Sox; Eggleton to the Harrisburg Giants, and Washington, Lindsey, and Chambers to the Lincoln Giants. With Gillespie and Harper from the Bacharach Giants now on their pitching staff and these other new players, the Lincoln have been materially strengthened. In their double header on Sunday they showed marked improvement and won both games easily. The Potomacs was first organized by Ben Taylor in Washington, D.C., three years ago but after two unsuccessful season in that city, the team was sold to George Robinson and the headquarters moved to Wilmington. The change did not help the club and they have been losing money steadily all season. Mr. Robinson made several unsuccessful efforts to sell his interest in the club and finally decided to give up altogether. It is reported in baseball circles that his loss will exceed $10,000. Tom Fial Quits Professional Baseball Because of Suffering From Broken Leg Because of a, recurring, trouble with his leg, which was broken, two years ago, Tom Fial, local outfielder, has decided to quit professional baseball. Fial ended his career with the Lincoln Giants Sunday by hitting a home run in his last time at bat. He is one of the few native New Yorkers to have fame as a baseball player and his passing from the game will TOM FIAL Outfielder on Lincoln Giants, who is quitting Professional Baseball. rejected tyranny in paying ball for the past six or seven years in and around New York. He was first connected with the Royal Giants. But after a season's layoff, due to the accident to his leg, he joined the Lincolnins late last year. He became a Kenan, owner, Manager Gains, and all Fial's teammates, expressed regret at his retirement. Mr. Kenan said that the release was given at Fial's request and that he was sorry to lose such a good man, especially at this time. He was honored by George and Lester Fial, who are also well known in Harlem as, basketball, and baseball players. Cuban Stars Win From Springfield Nine After 13 Innings Hard Battle Baseball fans at Recreation Park Brooklyn, witnessed one of the most exciting ball games of the season Sunday afternoon, July 19, when the Brown Stara and the Springfield nine hattled for 13 innings before the Cul- bard were able to score a 6-5 victory. The Islanders came from behind and tied the score in the ninth innings making three runs. Diligo was able to prevent any further scoring for the next 5 innings.

Condon, principal of the Chester School of The Bronx, sends a communication to The Age relative to a proposed monument the citizens of The Bronx are to erect to the memory of Emil "Amy" Reimacher, who may be remembered by some of the old time New Yorkers as one of the star players at the team and Bronx professional teams of twenty years ago. The article is by Dr. Francis, a former teacher of "Any" Reinacher, as he was affectionately called, and is as follows: "Hundreds of friends are rallying to the cause," so to speak, to erect a monument in The Bronx in memory of Emil (Amy) Reinacher, great baseball player and enthusiast. Over twenty years ago, the late Amy Reniender, a former player, joined in the Harlem Evening High School, and asked for an examination to be admitted to my class, which per mission was granted him. "After his successful term, he was signed by the Hoboken Club and his modest bearing, his clean living, as well as his expert work at shortstop soon won (or him 'the admiration of all the players')," the Amy played football with much remarkable athletes as Judge Jeremiah T. Mahoney, Senator Rob Wagner, JO Flaherty of The Home News, and others now well known in public life. The next spring David White, Eddie Laman, Philip Reynolds, Tommy White, Jack Moore and others of his teammates selected him as the best shortstop in Harlem His fame spread throughout the berth with the famous Black Diamonds and still later was bought by the Hartford team. "The newspaper writerews were very favorable at that time, but he suddenly left the Hartford team and returned to Captain White to play with the team. He was the national team of that day. One rainy day in Philadelphia, "Amy" was asked why he had quit professional ball, and his answer was, "I was not accustomed to hear the language used by some of the ball 'players' and I am." His whole life as a ball player and citizen showed that he would not break away from ideals. As his teacher and colleague, I have tested his worth and I trust I will be pardoned if I express it'in the following "He played' the game with mighty, and man. His modesty and humble mien, stayed with him, till the end of the period, soul sincere, For others spent his time Unselfishly he gave his life All in his youth and prime. When players meet to tell their tales and peak of players or game, The Bishop will be the sing At mention of his name." The Ripit Lynching, at new organization banded to stamp out this terrible plow of our nation, held a very successful mass meeting at Salem M. E. Church Rev F. C. Culle, pastor, Sunday, July 19. Brilliant addresses were made b Mrs Blackmee, Midge, Mrs Geegt-duyn, and other prominent speakers. Twenty-three persons joined Stirling. Gattie Massee, the 20-bound offender of the Lincoln, Ga., betrayed the Sandy Hook jungle by his three homers in one game.

Neither Shortman was allowed to pitch to him on his fifth trip to the ball. In third homer. That pitcher must not remember, me. His takeoff, homers were responsible for six of the eleven runs made by the Lincoln in the game, the score of which was 11-5. Massee had made more than a dozen homers than all else. He incoln hit on the ball and where he hit on the ball, four of them. At the Lincoln's home grounds, the Catholic Protection, Oval, all of his home runs have been over the centerfield bleacher.

Royal Giants Divide Double Header Sunday With Bushwick Nine The accounts of the games are no interesting that this week I am going to allow the cricketers themselves to tell the story in their own words. Speaking for the Progressive Blake Richards, secretary says: AT KITTS LOSES Saturday; July 18. Progressive defeated St. Kitts by 68 runs and three wickets at bat. Batting first: Progressive made 118 runs for the loss of 7 wickets at which Clyde Perkins was top score with 34, R. Gibbs 23, not out, R. Johnson 18, and H. Hunte 11, not out. Bowling for St. Kitts, P. Ible captured 3 wickets for 33 runs, and S. Bridgewater 3 for 29. St. Kitts was quickly dismissed for 50 runs, of which S. Bridgewater, with 13 to his credit, was the only one to get into double figures. Bowling for Progressive Chris Perkins captured 6 wickets for 18 and H. Greenidge 2 for 12 12,000 fans at Daxter Park Sunday, saw-the-Royal Giants and the Bushwick nine, divido a double header. Mary of the tans were of the opinion that the Royals really won both games but that Umpire Oldis cheated them out of one. The score was 2-1 when the Royals came-to-bat in the last inning. Flournoy, who had allowed, only six hits during the game, hit a single. Then Smith hit what he thought was a home run, but the Royals thought different, however, and called the ball a foul. The Royals refused to accept the decision for ten minutes, insisting that the decision was wrong. In the second contest-Reetor pitched his team to a 5-2 victory, allowing only three hits. Sunday, July 19, Progressive C. C. was victorious over the Primrose C. C. Progressive batted first and was all out for the score of 102, of which F. Marshall scored 24, E. Weeks 18, A Hinds H and Clyde Perkins 10, Bowling for Primrose E. Nuner captured 6 wickets for 40 runs. Primrose after a significant start fell 76-76 before the bowling of R. Gibbs, who performed the hat trick of bowling the last three men with three balls. L. Simmons was top score with 24, C. Thomas 15, G. Murray 12, and C. Martin 13, Bowling for Progressive, H. Greenidge captured 5 wickets for 17 runs and R. Gibbs 4 for 16. TRINIDAD WINS FROM SURRY FIELD The Trinidad Seven, with its masterly combination of force inflicted a crushing defeat on Surrey Field at Van Cortlandt: Park, Sunday afternoon.

Although they seemed quite unaccustomed to adversity, they took the numming with the sentiments of the aching hearts mirrored on their smiling fates. The Trinidadians' deceiving was done by Joseph and the incomparable Padmore, with Captain Hacket doing guard behind the "Forts". Their bowling was done almost entirely in a foreign language to every incoming Surrey hatman, and it was plainly visible that a few of them made several attempts to muster sufficient courage to stem the tide of the attackers, but alas they failed just as many times, with the result that the Trinidadians running true to form made every a winning pole.

With only a few runs added to the score, the skiiper was dismissed for 8, with a well pitched ball from Braathwaite. Padmore filled the gap and with true jessipian style, rewarded his admirers with a breezy 21 in 14 minutes. Green followed and with orthodox cricket, thoroughly demoralized the Surrey bowling. At this stage of the game, things went smoothly until the "style specialist" was clean, bowled with a puzzle from O'Dear for 19.

But as the side was in a trifurcable position, he had to stand down. With 116 to win and 1 hour and 45 minutes to play, Surrey began their inning, at 5:49.

What it was all about is told by Redding, another one of the Brooklyn boys, who says: "The United Cricket champions met the Cardinals Cricket Club at Prospect Park, Saturday, July 18. The former going first to bat made 31 runs for all. The "past master" with the ball, the familiar Ollie Sayle, shook himself like a giant refreshed and turned loose a brand of bowling against the champions which is unexcellent." With Marshall at the other end, it was out of the question to stand before with bowling, so they fell as before stated, not a batsman going to double figures. The prince of cricket, Holder, and a big United man, said that they were "from Missouri" and that the Cardinals must show their ability to win. The champions made a wristwild attack and not a batsman could stand up, for one minute before the dighting like deliveries of T. Griffith and D. Sashage. The cardinals were crushed for the sum of three runs. The crowd went wild. Some yelled others howled, and some others bawled. It was bedlam. Enough said. **WEST INDIANS PIBE UP 217 RUNS ON SUSSEX** The invincible West Indian Cricket Club met the immovable Sussex eleven on the Commercial Oval Sunday afternoon and it was a game of games. The West Indians proceeded to bat and took the bit in their teeth front games R. Root and I. Springer, the two orthodox bats of the West Indian team.

The next wicket pulled the score to 148 for 3 wickets, while the 4th wicket fell for 24 runs. The genius, Cappiain Tihy Hinds, declared his inning closed.

Winters Fans 13 As Hilldale Beats Black Sox Of Baltimore Winters Fans 13 As Hilldale Beats Black Sox Of Baltimore Philadelphia, Pa.—The Balmers Black Sox went down before the puck pitching of Nimp Winters, the big Hildale southpaw, when Bolden strayed the Baltimore invaders at Hildale Park by the score of 9 to 4. After a wobbly start in the first innings, Winters staged one of the greatest pitching feats ever witnessed on the local diamond. Facing the touted "Fear Horseman" and "Murder Row" bowed by the Marland aggregation, Winters moved down a "baker's dozen on sticks without hesitancy or favor. With Hildale having regained first place in the league race and Baltimore but a scant number of points behind Harrisburg for the second-position, the closeness of the race "brought out a bong that crammed every nook and crevice of the Darby ball yard. The Sox's carefully go on off the right foot in the first inning in "Heavy" Johnson, tripped with Bock and with Wilson on the sacks, and scored the third run of the inning on Roya single. Tarlton "Kid" Strong the Balmour heaver, who has defeated the Hillgate team on four straight occasions this season, essayed to do the, bussing for Sox. However, it was just, gamed on "Kid's day" or like the proverbial paternal, that went to the well too often, latter was treated to a ruthless lacing by the Hildale sluggers. The second mning really was the "finals" of the Baltimore hitter, although for some reason Pete Hill hit him hang around in the danger, none till the seventh inning and Britt, finished, the game without being scored on. "Sixteen hits were" piled up by the Darby, Daisies including three home runs and three triples, Winters-aside from Britt a great game drove out a home run in double.

Double play, left LEON ADGER WILL CEASE SERVICE AS THE ORGANIST-CHORMASTER OF M.T. CALVARY INDEPENDENT METHODIST CHURCH SUNDAY It is to be deplored that there should be an apparent disruption of the musical forces of M.T. Calvary Independent Methodist Church, 140th street and Edgegoe avenue, the Rev. J. M. G. Coggin, pastor, where Leon Adger of Plainfield, N.J., a member of the well known Philadelphia family which has long occupied a distinguished place in the ranks of Newman mutabilis, has been giving splendid services in an orginal membership. There have been unconfirmed rumors for several weeks that Mr. Adger was invited to resign from M.T. Calvary, Lakeside, and some of the other of the church organists, have been casting sheep as Mr. the lucrative job. But they met with the fact that Mr. Adger was still on the organ bench, alleged to be held by a 3-years contract, which the church would not abrogate, and there was no vacancy. But than the past few days there has come an apparent change in the situation. This was first evidenced when a news reporter of the staff of the New York Ave brought in an item to the table that Miss Nellie Olden, soprano of the choir, had filled up in the 11th District Municipal Court, West 11th street, for $300 illegal to be due as back salary from the church and for purp. damages on account of the nonlisting circunstances attending bequest from the choir. This was followed, a few days later, by the receipt of a postal card through the mail on Saturday July 18, in which which bore a postmark, stamped at Plainfield N J. as of June 19, 1925—1130 a.m., which read: "PROF. LEON R. ADDER, THE NOTED ORGANIST, HAS DESIGNED FROM M. CALVARY INDEPENDENT METHOD CHURCH, NEW YORK CITY, AB ORGANIST AND CHOIRMASTER." A Plainfield is the home town of Professor Adger, it is supposed that the card was sent either by him, or with his authority. According to the best information obtainable, it appears that Professor Adger was engaged under a 3-year contract by the then chairman of the board of trustees at a salary of $115 per month, and that he was given the support of paid singers in the choir, bringing the total cost of the choir to approximately $250 per month. And it further appears that all of the org. artists' duties were rendered under the individual supervision of the board chairman, neither the pastor nor other members of the board having any further knowledge of the music litigation. However other, complications recently arising led to the church taking over the official relationship of the board chairman, and this led to increased revelations with regard to the relations between the church and the crestant-chairmaner. And this development, it is alleged, has led to present unpleasant situation, which shows Miss. Olden suing the church and the church calling Professor Adger into conference for the purpose of creating a satisfactory settlement and agreement, with the several relations as the ultimate object. The nature of the church speech in high terms of Professor Adger personally and musically, and it is intended, though not officially, that the entire trouble may be traced to the fact that the organist seemed to have been of a mind that Calyxary Independent Church was the individual property of the board chairman, and that his loyalty and allegiance belonged entirely to that individual and not to the congregation. The situation, at present, as gleaned from reliable sources, is that an ample and friendly decision has been reached by the church and the organization and that the last official duty of Professor Adger will be performed deeds. July 26, when his resignation will finally take effect, the organist realizing that his services are no longer desired, has agreed to the canceling of the remaining period of his contract, stipulating that he receive a bonus payment of $100 in consideration of such cancellation. The church will furnish the resigning organist with a letter of recommendation as his ability musically. There is also an unconfirmed rumor that Miss Olden has withdrawn her suit in court and will drop the litigation entirely.

They specialised one-combination manager, or leaden who may draw from other interests into the musical business and who mainly regard it as a toy, are the ones who add interest to the EXCHANGE losses they make. They specialise in the business seriously and usually they pay in the end by GOING OUT OF THE BUSINESS to do other lines of work. The fact of the matter is, they never really are the business at all. Today the entertainers are in a bad way, really good musicians fail to get on, the living made by the average professional is scarcely worthy of the name livelihood; therefore, they make musical activities their AVOCA. The talent of success is nothing more than doing what you can do well, and doing well whatever you do without a thought of fame, remembering that, SINCERITY and, remembering difficulties in which all the arts he can invent would never benefit him.

Orange, N. J. $ ^{2} $ The colored citizens of the Oranges are tremendously disappointed over the new X. W. C./A building which is now in the course of construction on Oakwood, avenue, Orange. Since its organization, the Y. W. C. A, has used, rented, quarters on Oakwood avenue, which consisted of a nine family house and a building, in the rear which was intended for a garage, but which has been used, as the Y. W. as a gymnasium. Dowing to differences with the owner of the building, it was necessary to find a new location. A committee from the Colored Y, W. C. A was appointed to find a location. They selected a spot on Oakwood avenue. A joint drive for both the white and the colored Y, W. C. A, was then put on in the Oranges and an allotment of $50,000 was made for the colored Y, W. C. A. The ground which was chosen on which the "Y" was to be built was bought for $16,000. This left $34,000 for construction purposes. Some of the citizens of Orange who are interested in the welfare of the community made a vigorous protest to the members of the Board of Management for the following reasons: The location selected was undesirable because there is an aisle house and a saw mill on one of the lot; there is a lumber storage house almost immediately in front; there is a brewery diagonally opposite, on and a mean lot close by the Public Service operation expects to build a power house. It was argued by these persons that the cheapness for which the site could be purchased was more than offset by the undesirable surroundings. They further pointed out that this argument was entirely insufficient to construct a building' which would answer the needs of the Y. W. C. A., in a community as large as the Oranges. These persons also pointed out that it was the height of inconsistency to have appropriated a mere $35,000 for a complete building for the colored Y. W. C. A., while $75,000 was raised in the same drive merely for a swimming pool for the white Y. W. C. A. It is reported, however, that the white members of the joint Board of the Y. W. C. A. tell that the amount would sufficient and that the building would be good enough for the colored people, and that the colored members on the joint board were perfectly satisfied with anything that was given to them. Now that the construction of the building is far enough advanced for anyone to see what it will look like, there is just as much disappointment on the part of those who were in favor of it as there was on the part of those who were opposed to it. The PO TRADE front part of the new building is built of frame, material is but very little larger than the present quarters which are now being used by the Y. W. and the year, which is so, to be used, of a gymnasium, has all of the appearance of a cement block garage. Although the colored population of the Oranges is much larger than that of Montclair, the Y. W. C. A. in the latter place is much more advanced than the one in Orange. The Montclair organization has a specialized home-like building, and has just received an appropriation of $35,000 for building a gymnasium, which is more than is being expended in Orange for the entire plant. There is general criticism throughout the Oranges against the colored members of the board for not standing out for a better location for the new building and for a larger appropriation for construction purposes.

Bridge St. Church, B'klyn The spacious auditorium was filled to capacity and many were forced to find room in the balcony of the church Sunday morning July 19, at which time the pastor Dr. Edward E. Tyler, delivered a soul-stirring sermon on the 'theme "Giving God a Place." The text was Hebrews 11.10 prior to the sermon Dr. Tyler, who was the first one to encounter the Scopes trial at Dagton Tenn. He stressed the point that, while it centered around the question of evolution, one must also, be able to discern the religious and moral aspect of the case Dr. Tyler further stated that while one may not prove from scientific point of view the existence of God, we know through faith that He is, has been, and ever will be. Without faith we cannot please God. If our faith is small our conception of God will be small, and if our faith is large our conception of God will be large. We must understand the freedom, second because we are mortal and third because of immortality. In speaking cis the subject of the morning Dr. Tyler emphasized the view, that, we should find a place for God in our lives, because it is the only rational thung to do. God has given us an individuality, and we must go through the furnace of trial, tempest, conflict, and pressure, all in order to fit us for the life to come. We lose more in a Christian sense by considering what men think of our actions than what God things of them. God is a rewonder of those who diligent him, and who obeyed him.
