F PROPERTY BASIS
OF RACE ELIMINATION
Supreme Court
Mr. Marshall said the extension of such covenants would drive Negroes out of the District of Columbia and Mr. Marshall cited the Supreme Court's decision in the case of Pughanan vs. Wafley the so-called Louisville segregation case of 1917 in which it was decided that segregation by municipal or State legislation was unconstitutional.
It would appear to be obvious said Mr. Marshall that where a legislature is prohibited from sanctioning a particular policy, individuals may not enter contracts or direct negation of the same policy. Surely that which a legislature cannot sanction should not be enforced to be done by a degree, a sort of equity enforcing speech performance of an agreement between third parties which is equivalent to such legislation and its product in industrial results.

Sometime between the 15th of January and the 1st of February the doors of the Emma Ransom House, the residence hotel to be operated by the West 137th Street Branch Y W. C A., of which Mrs Cecelia Cabaniss Saunders is the executive secretary, will be opened for the accommodation of approximately 175 girls and women, who will find there permanent living quarters of the most desirable character, available under the most attractive surroundings and atmosphere.
With Mrs. Saunders acting as cicerone, The Age representative was piloted through the newly erected building located at 175 West 137th street, adjoining and connected to the main W. A building at 179, and was told of its many conveniences and comforts. Two connecting corridors have been made by which one can go to and from one building to the other without being exposed to the weather either element or inclement. One door opens from the main building lobby, affording entrance to the lobby and office of the residence building, and another connecting link is placed downstairs in the cafeteria, opening into a spacious room in the new building which is to be used both as accommodation for overflow patrons from the present cafeteria and for special private groups who want private quarters for the meeting and eating.
The main entrance to the new building opens directly from 137th street into a lobby that is spacious and elegant and which is finished in a quiet restful tone, with that is gracious and attractive. Some fifty by thirty feet in extent will serve as a reception room at sample accommodations for the house guests and their friends.
Intering the door, we face the registration desk where will be stationed the assistant secretary in charge the staff will comprise four responsible officials and an adjourning room provide accommodations for the business. Fire force this in judging the bookkeeping department stenographers and types. And this section provides a barrier of private mail boxes with individual keys one for each guest and an adjacent cloak room with locked checking locks. I assume a privacy that is not possible in her present quarters and at the same time be in direct intimate contact with all of the currying machines of the land new art offices. Mrs Saunders will have here the new building just across the hall from the bookkeeping department.

Florida Whites Force Negro Employes From Pullman Drawing Room
Fort Hereke Fla. While enroute to Miami Fla. on train number 41, Atlanta last line out of Jacksonville a married man and his wife from New York, who occupied a drawing room near that of their white employers were met at the train by a mob of white men of this state and fiercibly ejected from the train. They were told to walk the rest of the way because niggers weren't allowed to ride through there. Fort Hereke on Bullman cars. The man and wife weren't even given time enough to gather up their personal effects. Their employer gathered up their belongings, left the train and motored back to their aid.
Whether it is the case of "A New Broom Sweeping Clean," or the spurring up of the police subordinates by the coming into authority of a new police head, prompt action followed the printing by The Age of information concerning the opening up of a "numbera" banking headquarters and hooch joint by Levy, whose place at 508 Lenox avenue was padlocked on January 1.

Officers Klinie aid Hunter, colored patrolmen attached to the 16th Precinct, who have been assigned to the staff of Inspector Daley, paid a little social visit to 106 West 136th street and extended a general invitation to the proprietor and twenty-five of his guards, alleged to have been assembled for the purpose of trying to select the winning number that would be revealed later in the day by the Clearing House Balances report, to pay a return visit to Captain Mulrooney and his staff at the West 135th street station house.
Provided Patrol Wagon
And in order to facilitate the trip for their guests. O cers Kline and Hunter provided three police patrol wagons for their accommodation and they were taken over in the latest police style.
Levy, himself, did not appear to be in evidence, but a David Cohn gave his name as being the proprietor, and he was booked on a charge of maintaining a gambling house. It is alleged that the officers succeeded in getting hold of a box containing many "numbers" slips and a large sum of money which had been paid in by the alleged players, and that this box was vital evidence as to the operations carried on by Levy and his hephmen at 1106. Cohn is reported to have considerable squawk at being raided, as it is said he declared that he had just paid $100 each to two white detectives who made an earlier call, and who promised "protection" from such unwanted visits as that of Kline and Hunter. Cohn was much put out, it is said, because the desired "protection" was not in evidence.
Roll of Prisoners.
The honor roll of the "guests" who made the enforced call upon Captain Mulrooney and later were arraigned in the "Washington Heights Court on charges of possessing policy slips and with indulging in loud, profane and vulgar language is as follows:

Levy Operates Boldly.
Notwithstanding these arrests, it is said that Levy has in no way lessened the scope of his operations. In fact it is asserted, that the postlocking of his place at 503 Lenox avenue led indirectly to the opening of at least three other places, possibly four. For he is said to have acquired the pseudo cigar store at 114 West 135th street, which was raided under its former proprietor, and at which place a police officer was stationed daily until recently. Here he has been dispensing hooch for some weeks.
Then he anticipated the padlocking proceedings by opening at 106 West 136th street, and it is alleged, also that he is operating with the utmost boldness the place at 582 Lenox avenue, formerly operated by Hyman Kassell. To this place, it's reported, hooch is boldly brought in boxes similar to those used by clothiers in delivering men's suits, and tini and carboys of alcohol are handled with the same carelessness and unconcern as if they contained the most harmless and lawful liquid. And now it is charged that he has leased through his associate Goldgraben, the newsstand located at northwest corner of 136th street and Lenox avenue, on the 135th street side, formerly operated by a colored man named George Carr which he has turned ostensibly into a boot black stand, but which covers in this way its real purpose, i.e. the making of handbooks for the receiving of bets on horse races at the various tracks. In close proximity to Levy's new place at 106 West 136th street are two ocular places, where it is said the "numbera" banking is just about as lucrative a proposition as is the hooch selling which is supposed to be the main proposition.
A new wrinkle in the "numbers" business is the opening of these headquarters in which the plays are made direct with the bankers or their salaried employee, and this enables the occasional winner to receive the full amount of his 600 to 1 profit, instead of having the usual 10 per cent deducted by the runner or collector. Of course, this is added inducement to the player, and serves its purpose of drawing customers from other bankers whose runners still retain the 10 percent, when the rare hit is made. But it is pointed out that the banker who takes these plays direct saves also the 20 or 25 per cent. commission paid to the runner or collector, and that this saving is made on every play received. Whereas it is only the occasional player who makes a hit, and this makes it an insignificant gon the banker is holding out so flamboyantly.
Every morning, until around 10 o'clock, scores of men and women may be seen flocking into these places to make their daily play on the "numbers" and most of them, while in the place patronise the hooch counter as well. So the bootlegging banker gets his customer's safety ways, going and coming

That the 135th Street Branch, Y. M. C. A. under its present management does not measure up to its opportunity for service to the community is set forth in a record of impressions upon a frequent visitor, who has had similar opportunity through contact to judge of the manner in which the executive secretary, Thomas E. Taylor, and his immediate staff of co-workers bear themselves toward the men and boys for whose benefit the institution is primarily instituted.
This particular visitor has set down consecutively his reactions to the functions of the executive staff with regard to Staff, Equipment, Service, Attitude and the Class of Attendance.
The outstanding impression seems to be a lack of sympathetic corice between members of the staff and patrons of the Y, and that this unisympathetic atmosphere hampers the general usefulness of the institution. It is recalled that last November there was a campaign for increase of the Y membership in an effort to reach a wanted roster of 1,200 and to raise $5,000. It has not been made public as to whether these marks were met or not and it is believed that if failure was met it it was largely because of a feeling imputed to the public that the usefulness of the executive secretary has been impaired through charges made against him sometime ago in connection with alleged improper association with a member of his staff, and through domestic infliccities.
There have been also a number of complaints that the general atmosphere in the Y is one of frigidity, with a lack of, courtey and consideration, an part of the attendants. These are all referred to, in the record of impression written down by the visitor, who expresses himself as follows:
Alabama Zionists Are Making Fine Progress
Mobile, Ala.-The West Alabama Conference of the A. M. E. Zion Church, the largest conference of the Tenth Episcopal District, has gone over the top this year, with banners of victory unfurled to the breeze, with Bishop William Jacob Wall, leading the lifts. The work of the West Alabama Conference has grown that the Church is under leadership that its both young and intelligent.
New church buildings are being erected in every presiding elder district, hundreds of new members are being added constantly to the church, while the finances of the church are away over the top.
At the Conference recently held at Whistler, Ala., the following facts were brought out: that the good people of Big Zion A. M. E. Zion Church of Mobile, the largest Zion Church in the South, under the direction of their pastor, Dr. J. R. White, has renovated their church at a cost of nearly $7,000, making it the most beautiful of any church edifice in all the Southland, regardless of denomination; that the congregation of Twin Beech A. M. E. Zion Church, Palmheo, Ala., a rural community, had, under the direction of their pastor, Rev. A. N. Bennett, constructed a stone church that matches well any city church and excels by far any rural church to be found in this section of the country; that Rev. Dr. A. Shinn, pastor of Hope Chapel A. M. E. Zion Church at Mobile, has led his people in the erection of a beautiful-bungalow parsonage; and that the membership at Pilgrim Rest A. M. E. Zion Church Whistler, directed by their pastor, Rev. J. H. Norris, had built a new nine-room parsonage; that $7,000 was raised for benevolent, missionary and educational purposes and that $5,000 was raised for other purposes; that there were more than 1,000 accessions and conversions.
The sessions of the Conference were graced with the presence of Bishop Benjamin Garland Shaw, of
what I was able to use, is comprised of a few looking group of young men. There are five or six of these. I had dealings with who were very unkind in their manner to a stranger. I will mention two of the others who occupy a minor position and some of them really don't know any better. The two have in mind are the Executive and Financial Secretaries.
(a) The executive is not open for approach and advice to young men I found him a bit snobbish. The financial secretary is simply ton heavy. Job is too big.
II. Equipment
The equipment is one of the best in the country for colored people. The question is, why are they not used by more men? Why aren't more men taking advantage of such an ideal place and location. Whose is the blame?
III. C Service
"I noticed the service of the men in all departments. I find that the men who meet the strangers first on a whole are very unkind. Their approach is not as cordial as that of a hotel clerk, since they are not expecting a tip.
IV. Attitude
"The attitude of the staff is rather cold and idiflanti! When a 'mart walks into the lobby, especially a stranger they simply stare at him as if he had no business in there."
V. Class, of Attendance
"The class of men who attend the "Y" seem to be men who have made their way or know just what they want to do, but the poor Yellow who is struggling does not get the benefit of this fine place. Now whose is the blame Why this mass of men are not reached? Is the kind of personality behind the yhee? Is the kind of character controlling affairs?

Fla. Blu. Ark.—In this city which a Negro once owned a hard track and this city street car system Negro business is experiencing a period of prosperity and expansion unequaled in history. During the past year a tailor shop, summer park, barber shop, garage, billiard parlour two groceries and an insurance company have been established and are doing a good business. A building and Joan association is being organized. None of these businesses have the carmarks of the usual Negro business. They are completely finished and equipped. College Park, a sub-division of some fifteen acres adjoining the new 160 acre farm of the Agricultural Mechanical and Normal School, formerly Branch Normal College, is being built up with homes. Its close proximity to the New A. M. and N. College, in which an initial investment of $550,000 has been made assures the neighborhood of proper surroundings.
Meilvin T. Moore, a Tuskegee graduate and instructor in tailoring at the A. M. and N. School, has opened a merchant tailor shop on State street, one of the most prominent streets of the city. Three tailors are employed and no pressing of clothes is done. A. L. Evans has opened a sanitary barber shop, complete in every detail, with baths, manicurists, a special department for ladies, cigar stand, etc. Mr. Evans is a teacher in the local state school.
Ben Howard, stock broker, has opened a high class summer, resort near the western limits of the city. One of the most beautiful garages and filling stations in the Southwest has been opened by R. E. Malone, superintendent of the A. M. and N. School. The building is 30x140 feet. It is fully appointed and located on Barraque street, one of the main thoroughfares of the city. The building has been leased to the Super-Service Company, a white organization which leases and runs garages.
John Young is the owner of one of the finest billiard parlors in the city. Eight fine tables have been installed. Other new businesses are the Domesite Life Insurance Co., of Louisville, Ky., which merged with the company formerly owned by J. M. Rhone, who remains as district superinendent. And two thriving grocery businesses have been opened by William Banks and Edward Jones. Mr. Jones took over the business formerly operated by V. W. Greene, a retired, who was a business at this address for twenty-five years.
Chairman Butler Denies President Upholds South
Boston, Mass.—At an audience with Senator W. M. Butler in his Boston offices by a delegation representing the National Equal Rights League and the Greater Boston Ministerial Alliance which again was asking the National Republican Chairman to stop federal segregation Attorney Edgar P. Benjamin told Senator Butler that the proviso in the President's recent message about not interfering with the usages of enlightened society meant no interference with Southern race proscription.
Mr. Benjamin, eminent lawyer and local bank president, is the donor at the $25 in gold, first prize offered by the League for the best race slogan of under 15 words received before February 1 at its headquarters, 9 Cerhill, based on 1926 as the 150th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence which promised equality, life and liberty, Rev. D. S. Klug, chairman of the delegation, Rev. Benj. W. Swain, vice president of league, Attorney Albert G. Wolff, local league secretary, Mrs. Heser Jeffrey, Col. E. B. Barco of the K. P., Rev. C. C. Somerville, Rev. J. W. Hill, Lawrence Banks were in the delegation.
Senator Butler insisted the President's message was misunderstood. He had his secretary bring in a copy of the message. He said the false interpretation would be counteracted.

Bishop Henry J. Tanner of the A. M. Church, has been required for Claflin University, through the interest of Hattersell, who had the pleasure in his possession, and who was the friend and patron of Mr. Tanner in his early days when the artist was struggling for recognition.
The painting is a marine view, depicting an approaching storm; and it is a potable producing, complemental will, another of Mr. Tanner's paintings recently secured by the New, York Metropolitan Art Museum, "Sodom and Comorah," which shows the fleeing of Lot and his two daughters, mite destroying fire and brimstops of the Lord.
Bishop Hartwell wanted Claflin to have possession, of this masterpiece, of the race's greatest artist, and Dr. L. M. Dunton, president-meritus of the school, and Mrs. Dunton paid the first $25 toward a fund of $3,000 for securing the painting. At the annual conference, Bishop Richardson, minister and laymen subscribed liberally, and students and teachers at Claflin are freely giving from their limited resources.
Preparations for formal unveiling of the painting sometime this month are going forward and it will be a public function to which the people in general will be invited.
Claflin has other paintings of interest and value, the most important being an oil portrait of the late Gen. Robert Gould Shaw painted by Bannister, a Negro artist of years ago, which is hanging in *Lee Library*. Another painting of merit on the library walls was done by Mrs. L. M. Dunton, who is an artist of more than ordinary ability.
Ghmer paintings done by Mr. Tanner, are "The Raising of Lázarus," bought by the French Government and hung in the Louvre, Paris; "Daniel in the Lions" Den, in the Philadelphia Art Gallery; "Peter and John at the Tomb of Christ," in the Chicago Art Institute, and many others in private galleries in America and Europe. Sums ranging from $50,000, to $150,000 were paid for some of these works.

Realizing Need Of Younger
Men As Assistants, Seees
Incorporation a Means
Laurinburg, N. C.—An interesting
opportunity is opened to some enegetic,
qualified young men of the race
who are commercially inclined,
through the desire of W. P. Evans,
proprietor of the Erans' White Front
Department Store, to perpetuate the
business which he has conducted for
forty years, and which has grown
from a small beginning to a $10,000
a year proposition.
The White Front Store is said to be the largest department store enterprise owned and operated by a colored man, and is the oldest business now being run in Laurinburg. Mr. Evans, recalling that his days of activity are growing less, and believing that his is too representate a Negro business to end with his individual passing, is looking around for ambitious young men who are able and willing to join him in the forming of a corporation for the conduct of the business, thus lessening the burden of responsibility which is on his shoulders.
In talking to The Age representative, Mr. Evans, said: "These long years have been anxious, sell scarcity, and at times sad and discouraging, but yet I pulled through them all. In reviewing the past and considering the frailty of man, made so by relentless toil, I am about to conclude that no man, rich or poor, should bow over his desk or counter, farm or anvil, and lose sight of the Judgment Day, the Cross and the grave. Hence, I feel that for the perpetuation of the Evans' White Front Department Store the responsibility should devolve on younger men.

Tituville, Fla.—A. P. Hill, dining car waiter, and C. H. Leach, chief cook on the private car of W. C. Durant, millionaire automobile manufacturer, were instantly killed in a rear end train collision near here Sunday, January 10. About thirty other persons were injured in the wreck, including Mr. Durant and J. W. Penn, the porter in charge of the car. The crash occurred when the northbound Overseas Limited plunged into the private car Patriot, belonging to Mr. Durant, attached to train No. 36 on the Florida East Coast Railroad. The train had resumed its journey after allowing another train to pass, when the limited rounded a curve traveling at fast speed and struck it.
Hill and Leach were in the cook's galley in the rear of the car and were killed instantly. Penn, the porters, was in another part of the train and although severely cut and bruised was able to assist in the rescue of other injured.
Albert, Jones, colored, fireman on the limited, seeing the impending crash, is said to have jumped to his death. Ed Farmer, engineer, stuck to his post and was uninjured.
Mr Leach, the chef who was killed, is said to have been one of the best known and most trusted employees connected with the commissary department of the Pullman Company's New York Central office. He was a native of Raleigh, N C, where his body was removed.
Mr. Hill, the dead waiter was a native of Shelby, Madison County, Va. but was well known in New York City where he was connected with dining car department of the Pennsylvania Railroad.

Moving Bayou, Mississippi, founded by I. T. Montgomery and B. T. Green, was the scene of the most disastrous fire in its history, when the Boose Mercantile Company, the center of trade and the largest establishment in town was totally destroyed at 2 a.m. January 9, 1926.
Other businesses were destroyed, including the post office, a barber shop, restaurant, garage and ware rooms filled with large quantities of hay, coal, etc.
The Boose Mercantile Company carried a large stock of clothing, dry goods, groceries, hardware and farm implements. It was partially covered by insurance and will be rebuilt.
Due to the forelight of Mayor B. A. Green and the Board of Aldermen in recently securing a motor driven chemical fire truck, much other business property was saved.
The fire originated in the accounting department of the mercantile company in some unknown manner. All autos in the garage were saved, among which was a Buick roadster owned by J. J. Quarles of Baltimore, Md., who is at present in Mound Bayou on business.

"Y" Hotel For Women To Open Doors In Few Days
fortable easy and straight chairs, small tables and cosy lights, in which the young women guests of the house will entertain their visitors—of either sex.

In addition, there is provided at least one guest room with private bath, toilet and lavatory, for the person desiring such exclusiveness. It is significant that the charges for any of these accommodations are more reasonable than are ordinarily found
The telephone switchboard is to be located inside the desk, and telephone service is to be placed at convenient intervals on each floor of the building. There will be no private room telephone service, however.
At the rear of the building, west side, a large room is provided for meetings of the Committee of Management. Convenient dumb waiter service makes it possible to serve food direct from cafeteria to this room, and so it will also be available as a private dining room for the service of such groups as may desire such accommodation. In this end of the building are located also the private toilets, lavatories, etc., for use of the office force, with dish closets, sink and draining board for use when cafeteria service is being had
Facilities In Basement
Descending to the basement, one of the first things to strike the attention is the arrangement for comfort and well-being of the working forces necessary to the operation of so extensive a plant as the two Y. W C A buildings. The superintendent is given a large room in which will be found his work bench equipped with the necessary tools for doing the various jobs that are a daily task Some eight or ten men are employed, three or four in the cafeteria, the others on the superintendent's staff, and for these men there is provided a wash room, furnished, in addition to the ordinary toilet and lavatory facilities, with modern shower baths, equipped with hot and cold water
Opposite these rooms is the large room that has direct opening to the main room of the cafeteria in the old building, and which will be used as a part of cafeteria service. From this room a convenient door leads to a spacious and comfortable rest room provided for the women and girls employed in the cafeteria, a great improvement over the present arrangement. A feature of the toilet arrangement is the shower bath arrangement, each bath having a dressing apartment that ensures privacy to the user.
A room specially fitted up for toilet purposes is in this section Wash bowls with extra large outlets are provided for shampooing purposes, and special gas plates are placed conveniently for heating of toilet appliances. These accommodations are for personal use of house guests and are free of charge. A laundry is also provided for guests, with a number of tubs and drers heated by gas, each dryer having a lock and key. An ironing room, with thirteen ironing boards, and corresponding heating facilities for irons, is also provided. Two rooms, with pianos, are for practice use of piano pupils who are resident in the building. Another unusual facility is the furnishing of several emergency bed rooms for distressed women who may not be able to locate friends or relatives.

There is a large room for linen storage, and a closet adjoining furnishes space for keeping blankets, etc. A sewing room is conveniently at hand for use of the house guests as their needs may necessitate.

Morbid Habits
We are consulted often by mothers because their children are addicted to certain habits which are recognized as abnormal. We wish to discuss some of these with you now
HEAD AND BODY MOVEMENTS These are numerous and common. For example we have head rolling head banging head-nodding with dancing eyes, and body swaying. Head nodding with dancing eyes is the one which gives greatest alarm because the mother feels that these disturbances are indicative of brain disease. The head may be nodded or shaken rhythmically either from arm to aide or up and down. If you look carefully you may see a fine movement of the eyes sometimes more in one eye than in the other. Any child who is in the habit of sitting rather quietly with the head turned to one side and downward and with the eyes directed in the opposite direction will show this condition which doctors call Spasmus Nutans. Perhaps you interpreted this gaze as coyness for some time before recognizing the movements with which it is associated. It might interest you to know that at a conference not so long ago it was remarked by the doctors that they see very little of this condition. This was at variance with my experience for certainly not a week passes but that I see one or more of these cases. There is this to be noted I have never seen the condition except in a child who had evidences of Rickets. But in what way this is a cause no one knows yet the condition disappears with improvement
skating, dancing, pictures and other amusements will be furnished and here will be held, during the summer such social events as the reception to visiting teachers and scholars who come by the hundreds to New York during the summer
Personnel Of Staff
Besides the house director Miss Hawes there will be an assistant director, a house secretary, who will perform the duties of a house keeper, and a night secretary, who will have charge of the desk from midnight to 8 a.m. The business office force, which will be in charge of Miss Louise Lawrence, the head bookkeeper, will consist of bookkeepers, stenographers, typists and switchboard operators
The operation of the house will be in charge of the House Committee composed of Mrs Ruth Logan Roberts, chairman Mrs Adah B Thomas Smith, treasurer Mrs Ihnah Rochon Boute, secretary with exofficio members—Mrs W H Wortham chairman Committee of Management Mrs Saunders, executive secretary, Mrs Wm H Rossiter chairman Housing Committee City Board, Miss Florence Potter secretary Housing Committee City Board and Miss Hawes, house director. This committee is a sub-committee of the Committee of Management and in the City House Committee
Including the land, the Lima Karsom House costs approximately $250,000, and it occupies a site 750 feet. The main building 600 feet, brings the total valuation of the West 137th Street Branch W. A plant close to the half million dollar mark. The total yearly budget is more than $150,000, and the present salary list totals $50,000 yearly. The Residence House salary list will add materially to this figure.

of the Rickets Some have thought that the condition was associated with poorly lighted dwellings and the strain upon the eye muscles in the effort to fix the gaze upon an object dimly seen, an analogy like unto the eye-dancing of miners. But this does not explain the cases occurring in children of the wullo to do, whereas Rickets might Head rolling and head-bankin are curious manifestations. We have seen children sit against the wall and bang their heads so hard against the wall that the house actually shook with the impact and the head was bruised, much to the apparent delight of the child. Bod-swaying is frequently associated with-
MASTURBATION This is in abnormal tendency to produce sexual excitement by body friction or manipulation This is brought about in many ways Perhaps the child crashes the legs and awaits to and fro, of from side to side, breathes laboriously, gets red in the face, breaks out into a sweat and turns pale, and finally seems exhausted and goes to sleep. In young children this condition is quite common in girls, where a failure to keep the child clean may lead to irritation and an attempt to allay this with a consequent introduction to a new emotional experience. In older children it is more common in boys Scolling or spying are the worst ways to attempt to rid the child of this habit. Spanking may do the infant good, but not so with the older runabout who soon learns to practice the condition in secret. And the mother may know that something is wrong only because the child seems pale, weak and tired all the time and has dark circles about the eyes. The approach must be upon the level of moral persuasion.
PERVERTED APPETITE Plea or dirt-eating is another curious habit. Anything that is chewable may be eaten, mad, dirt plaster out of the wall, the paint or varnish from the crab and other furniture paper wood and what-not? In the first place it seems instinctive for children to put things in their mouths. But this does not explain matters either otherwise we should expect most children to be dirt eaters and they are not.
TEETH GRINDING We mention this condition because it is contended by mothers that this is a sign of worms. Moreover it has been noticed when the teeth are coming through or when there is an irritation in the ears. It is seen in certain acute conditions of the bram. Yet by far the greatest number of cases are found unassociated with any other abnormality.
THUMB NUGKING Another habit associated at times with cutting of the teeth. And many times flavored by the early and unnecessary use of a pacifier.
HEAD FACE AND NECK TWICHINGS These form a large group called Ties. That is habit spasms Jerkimg of the neck as if to free it from an irritation of the collar (primes blinking of the eyelids and sudden jerks of the whole head and sometimes of the body or an arm or hand. We must distinguish these from St Vitus' Dance. It will be noted that the condition subsides as long as you are watching the child showing his power to commit them. In the Dance (hore) the movements get worse under observation.
Now this is the important thing for
to remember the usual these conditions
there is a single NERVOUS IN
STABILITY as well as possible phys-
ical sources of irritation which must
be determined and doctor.

IMPROVING POLICE METHODS.
Police Commissioner McLaughlin who succeeded Commissioner Enright as the head of the force of fourteen thousand men charged with the task of protecting New York's millions of citizens, has evinced a disposition to retain those methods which work for good and to discard those that he finds unessential. In pursuance of this policy he has already made many changes. The special service squad has been disbanded and its members sent back to duty in various precincts.
Most of the colored members of this squad have been assigned to the sixteenth precinct station house on West 135th street. While many of them can be utilized to advantage in this precinct, there is no good reason why they should not be distributed in other parts of the city, where their services are needed. There should be no scheme of segregation in the police force, that would restrict the use of these officers to the Harlem district.
The colored men who have won their right to wear the uniform and who have proved their ability to cope with the duties of their position, should be alert to put themselves in line for promotion. They should take the examinations necessary for such a step and keep their names on the eligible list, so that this may not be overlooked when the opportunity comes. Officer Battle was one of those who proved his eligibility for promotion to Sergeant although Commissioner McLaughlin jumped him in making his appointments. As we understand that the new commissioner announced his intention of making promotions in the order of merit, Officer Battle may yet get his step upward.
As Commissioner McLaughlin is seeking for efficient and faithful officers for the higher posts under his control, we trust that he will not overlook the quality of the service rendered by Captain Edward Mulloney as commander of the Sixteenth Precinct. The efficient manner in which he has handled police matters in this part of Harlem, the strictness of all lawabiding citizens, and the strictness of the servants, will help him as good matter in the future. There is action in crisis. The police force is a whole is a body of competent men intent on performing their multitasking duties as part of the day's work that an occasional drunkard with homicide may or may not be a professional grafter, should give them unpleasant notoriety, and should locate the need of stricter discipline in guarding against the use of liquor and the taking of beers. Grafters and unlicensed men are a menace to the public and public control.

That an occasional drunkard with home de-mars or a professional grafter, should give them unpleasant notoriety is unfair to the need of stricter discipline in guarding against the use of liquor and the selling of liquors.

tory in New York, growing weaker each year because of mismanagement. He claimed that the Chairman cannot shirk his responsibility toward this section of voters, and that no more efficient work can be done by him than to appoint leaders, not to meddle in Republican colored Harlem, but as special committees charged with disseminating some Republican doctrine in their own districts. This is the kind of talk that is needed among the Republican leaders, and which should arouse County Chairman Koenig to a realization of the facts of the situation
There is need for more of the qualities of vision and courage exhibited by Leader Costuma among the Republicans charged with the task of running party matters and building up party strength. The lack of these qualities has resulted in placing the city and county government in the hands of the opposition and decreasing party representation in the legislature. The enormous majority, that was recorded for President Coolidge but a few years ago, has been dissipated and the election of United States Senator and Governor placed in jeopardy.
The custom of having the colored members of the county committee in districts like the Nineteenth and Twenty-first select the colored associate leaders was founded on wise principles of justice and responsibility. The departure from this by Leader Conklin, was based on a desire to rid himself of the need to pay apy attention to the wishes of his colored constituents. This narrow and prejudiced policy is detrimental to the best interests of the party and can only result in dissension and weakness. Leader Costuma has the right idea as to recognition of the rights of all voters without distinction of race or color. Leadership in such districts as the Nineteenth and Twenty-first must be made a fifty-fifty proposition, with regard to recognition and in the distribution of political patronage.
TO EXTEND THE RENT LAWS.
The extension of the rent laws adopt to relieve the hardships of tenants in New York and other large cities seems now assured by the present Legislature. Both Republicans and Democrats have introduced bills extending these laws for two years; the real estate interests represented at A.M.any announced their willingness to agree an extension of six months, if the Legislature would undertake an investigation of present conditions, upon which to frame new law less strict in its provisions. Amblyman Grenthal of Harlem is the author of one of the bills providing for extension, while Senator Nicoll sponsored a similar measure in the upper house. Governor Smith in his message to the legislature referred to the purpose of the emergency rent laws which were first issued in 1920, for the protection of tenants from unjust exactions on the part of landlords. These laws were extended in 1930 upon recommendation of the Housing Commission but will expire next month unless extended. The Governor asserted that the emergency rent laws, in the last analysis, do not go to the heart of the housing density and recommended further legislation to provide wholesome and sanitary housing for the people. This would take the form of a state aid for housing and enactment of laws permit municipalities to lend their credit to the construction of modern dwellings upon square blocks at a time when a alternative plan suggested was the establishment of a State Housing Bank similar to the Federal Land Bank. The enactment necessary amendments to the State Constitution was advised to further such plans might be adopted.
Whether the Governor's recommendation to State aid is adopted by the Legislature, not, it would require at least three years to amend the constitution and secureification by popular vote. In the meantime the private capital may have provided such additional housing as to relieve the situation less prevented by the high costs of housing. During this period the protection is needed by the emergency rent laws will be needed to prevent undue profiteering of real estate owners and agents. Tenants should urge upon their representatives in the Legislature the necessary immediate action in extending the emergency rent laws. They are still needed as a curb upon extortionate landlords andasping agents.

As the outstanding opponent of the entry of the United States into the League of Nations or even to participate in the World Court Senator William F. Borah of Idaho occupies a conspicuous position in public affairs. Representing one of the Western mining states of small population and of minor importance as a financial factor Senator Borah radical views and fearless expression of them has made him widely known at home and abroad. His position as chairman of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations makes his influence felt in the foreign policy of this government. Besides opposing this country's adhesion to the World Court he has advocated the recognition of the Soviet Republic of Russia and urged the ending of the American occupa-
In a recent interview with Herman Bernstein, printed in the New York World, Senator Borah gave his views on various phases of international relations, one of the most striking significance being the danger of a conflict between the two civilizations of the white and colored races. In answer to a question based on a statement made by Romain Rolland, that while there need be no fear of any new conflict in Europe, the great danger is the approaching clash between two civilizations—the white and colored races, Senator Borah was reported as answering:
"I think the distinguished writer has properly accentuated the tremendous importance of our giving attention to increasing antagonism between the two races. I do not believe, however, it is necessary to look upon the situation as meaning inevitable war. If the white races are willing to treat the colored races in a fair and equitable way and treat them as nations as equals, my opinion is that they are the last people who want war.
"But I am quite sure that the white races must adopt a different policy toward the colored races than that which has obtained in the past. Exploitation and imperialism bring war. The teachings of the World War sank deep into the hearts of the colored races. When we said we were fighting the war for democracy and for the right of all peoples to choose their own form of government, they at least believed it. We should live up to our pledges."
The declaration by so clearheaded and fearless a stateman as Mr Borah that a different policy must be adopted toward the colored races is significant and should command the attention of his associates in the Senate. The policy of exploitation and imperialism practiced so far with impunity in Haiti and San Domingo and to a certain extent in Nicaragua, has not passed without observation by other nations of Central and South America. The extension of American interests into Liberia is bound to result in similar exploitation on the African continent, unless the tendency to grab and subjugate is curbed by a sense of justice and fair dealing.
Senator Borah hit close to the truth of the question, when he said that the teachings of the World War in the way of democracy sank deep into the hearts of the colored races. The belief that America wasighting the war for democracy was even shared by Negroes in the United States, though much was done during its progress and at its close to dispel that idea Nevertheless, Mr Borah is right in urging the United States to live up to its pledges. His position in this matter is evidently based on abstract principles of right and justice, as he comes from a state where the colored state is a negligible factor and he has never posed a friend of the race.
As an endorsement of the position taken by its chairman the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations should report the resolutions on Haiti introduced by Senator King Utah and urge their passage. One of these resolutions relates to the activities of Brigadier General Russell the American high Commissioner who runs the Haitian Government. The other resolution calls upon the President to withdraw the naval forces and set Haiti free from external interference. That would be a practical step toward world democracy.

A MICHIGAN COURT DECISION
An important decision hearing upon the right to buy property regardless of any straint put upon its sale on account of color was recently handed down by the Supreme Court of Michigan. The case in which this question was raised was a suit brought by two real estate dealers of Muskegon against Wilbratt and Auxie Barrett, white, and Wilson Robinson, a Negro who purchased the property involved. The real estate men had sold the lot to one Louis Parent, white who in turn sold it to the Barretts. The contracts in both cases specified that the property should not be sold to negroes upon penalty of the lots and all improvements reverting to the real estate concern.
Upon the sale of the property to Robinson on the real estate people brought suit to the Circuit Court where a verdict was rendered against them. The decision was affirmed by the State Supreme Court. The real estate protection in the contract being old invalid, writing the opinion, Justice allows said.

Under a pre-election pledge, Judge R. E Watkins, who was re-elected Judge of the City Court of Owensboro, Ky., in November will allow colored persons arranged before that Court to have the choice of white or colored juries to try their cases. Already a panel of colored persons for jury service has been selected.
If a jury composed of fair minded citizens resolved to determine the issues at stake on the evidence presented, the color of its members should be immaterial. We would be interested in learning the results of this experiment. If enough colored juries are demanded, it may afford useful training in jury service to this class of citizens.
The veracious editor of the Philadelphia Christian Recorder recounted this history of "Four Neighbors," as a story with a moral
On a certain street four persons lived side inside in adjoining houses. Sixteen years ago the first moved in the street paid about $30 a month rent. Then came a young married couple who paid a few hundred dollars down on the house and about $32 per month to purchase it. A little later another couple come up from the South, and after much startled to buy the third house. And a little later still another party who had come also from the South started to purchase. I wouldn't have met these old harms and the first neighbor I could buy this shack for $4000 on easy payments, but I would not have it! she continued.
Sixteen years passed since the first neighbor came on the street. They are now about to scatter Neighbor No. 4 old her house for $22 500, and is fixed for life. Neighbor No. 2 sold her for $1,000, while No. 1 who has been in years renting can even carry off a brick when by a little foresight she might have sold her property (had she had sense enough to buy it for $4,000) for anywhere from $18,000 to $25,000. But further on counting up, it was seen that Neighbor No. 1 has ac-

Noting the illegal traffic in poor among colored citizens of Monmouth County, the Red Bank Echo said
Before Judge Lawrence at Fremont in the past ten days the following color edilis pleaded guilty to the illegal sale of liquor; State vs. Silas Hass of Long Branch, $100 and costs. State vs. Cliff Hall of Long Branch, $100 and costs. Counsellor Leo Warwick of Long Branch represented Messrs Hass and Hall. He stated to the court that these defendants realized that the National Prohibition Law and the State Hobart act are law and are in force. They have quit the illegal traffic and are now engaged in wage earning vorgames. Mr. Warwick stated.
Judge Lawrence cautioned the defendants that he would take commend word as to the truth of their economic employment and that no further leniency will be shown. For the next offense fail terms will be inescapable.
This should discourage bootlegger on the other side of the Hudson. Another defendant described as a "jarring preacher," was fined one hundred dollars to be paid at the rate of seventive cents a week under probation for two years. Jersey justice can also be merciful, it seems.
Refering to prohibition enforcement, the Des Moines Bystandar made the following comparison.
The executive board of the Methodist Episcopal church wants the army used to execute the Volstead Act, while Representative Gallavin of Massachusetts calls these church people every criminal name imaginable.
Something is wrong with a law that requires the army to enforce it, but then how the sounds. Every civil right of the Negro guaranteed by state and federal constitutions, is flagrantly violated. No millions are spent to enforce them: no calls for the army and navy to enforce them. Why the difference? A law is a law.
The public likes a drunk once in a while even though law-makers use otherwise, the boonleger can make an easy dollar, so the law is not easy crammed down their throats. Semenum against Negroes has been handed down from generations past. It is hard to change. We agree that the laws should be enforced, but if the army should be used for one, why not for the other? What's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander.
The logic of this position is irrefutable. There is no valid argument for the enforcement of the Eighteenth amendment that would not apply to the Fourteenth or Fifteenth.

Object of The Scheme
The object of the stock scheme is to direct the attention of the power from the movement to organize them to make them think that they are a part of the Company, to impress the lie with the idea that the Company very much interested in its projects that they don't need a lot of their own to improve the conditions but that they need only upon the Company, which they done for over half a century and will still underpaid and over worked.

The Emancipation program given on last Friday evening under the auspices of the Strangers Club was not as well attended as had been hoped. This is the usual program given in Commemoration of the day on which the Negro was freed from slavery and whenever given should stir the memory of all Negroes, for whether he was freed by accident or not, the fact remains that he is free and that we do owe something to the memory of the happenings of that day.

Theme "Our Lord the Emmanuel gives the rule for behaviour and duty for those who have been regenerated and lighted by the Holy Spirit."
Pastor Bolden said. That these words of our Lord, as quoted here are taken from a part of the illuminating and memorable sermon delivered to the Apostles and Disciples by our Lord, Matthew says. "And seeing the multitude, he went up into a mountain, and when he was set, his disciples came unto him; and he opened his mouth and taught them. The gospel of blessedness must have been very illuminating and inspiring to the disciples and followers of our Lord, the Emmanuel, for even today a thoughtful reading of the Beautitudes is rapturous; while to meditate upon their contents releases dynamic energy that gives contentment and strengthens the patience in our souls. Sure the Disciples were startled with absurdity the declaration of our Lord the Em
Actively, were the salt of the earth and the light of the world, tooth salt and light were regarded then as the most powerful, preserving and curative elements known to man. They are necessary, basic elements for sustaining and quickening the various expressions of the manifestation of organic and animal life. Science today has just begun to tap the wonderful and mysterious beneficial resources and values found through research into these elements, salt and light.
Our Lord the Emmanuel puts light in a class to itself when He declares that He is the Light of the World. Those who study Him closely declared that He was the Light of Life, and was that Light sent down from God out of heaven that lightteneth every man that cometh into the world. We can see therefore that the Light, Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, of which it was conditioned upon a human being with a physical body, the light was not physical nor material, but was spiritual and real, making manifest everything that is necessary for the highest expression of life as regards adoration to God our Father and service to our fellow man. When He declared that His Disciples were the light of the world, He did so because He knew, better than they, the finished work of the Trinity, as regards their station in the program of the Kingdom of God and the age of the gospel dispensation. While He was the Son of reality manifested in the world of humanity, they had been created and made great stars in the pernament.
Hence in the menal and spiritual world they were commanded to so exercise themselves as regards their duty and behaviour as to let their light so shine before mankind that mankind would see their good work and glorify their father which is in heaven. The thought on the importance of behaviour perplexly good behaviour as a very important tactic being given much underrated grace in the and remits it.
field, if though that have come under their range of interest. The eminent philosophers and Christian thinkers in studying man and his habits from childhood to old age are becoming awakened to the idea that behaviour conduct and duty may be regarded as the three trunk lines that constitute the arteries from which flow the vital streams of energy the tissues and develops human society.

Lord the Emmanuel before said Him. Distress and all perceptions through the ages that believe on Him and follow Him through their word, that they should let their light to shine before men that they may see their good work and glorify their Father which is in heaven, the command should be heeded and obeyed at once. Professed believers who have race prejudice, class prejudice, feelings of hate, malice, who athe, whether good name or material things, who lie and are covetous, may attempt to deceive others, but they do not deceive themselves or their Lord, for they know they are not the light of the world. But those who love the Lord God with all their heart, soul, mind and strength, and their neighbors as themselves, manifest a good behaviour in their thoughts, in their home, in their church, in society, and upon the public thoroughfares. For these persons regard as their sacred duty the command of our Lord Jesus the Emmanuel, to let their light so shine before men that they may see their good work and glorify their Father which is in heaven.
At 2 p. m., the Sunday school was opened by the superintendent, Rev. Hogans. Rev Hogans gave a short review of the lesson at the close of the Sunday school.

Last Sunday Rev. R. R. Downs delivered the morning sermon at Grace Church. The other part of the service was conducted by the pastor, Rev. A. C. Garner.

"Higher Ideals In Life," was the plea of this ermine of Dr W. J. King at of the sermon of Dr W. J. King is a member of the faculty of Gammond Theological Seminary in Atlanta, Ga. and is at present visiting in this city. The beauty of spiritual aspirations as against sordid materialism was set forth in compelling terms "Men Shall not live by bread alone but by every word that procedeth out of the mouth of God." were the words of the text, St. Matthew 6.6.
Jesus is asking every man this morning as he faces life, on which side is he going to take a stand? declared D. King. "What's going to be my philosophy of life?" Am I going to be merely a money getter or am I going to take my stand on the spiritual side? Many nation though have adopted this Christian idealism to further their own ends he observed. As evidences of this he referred to present disturbances in China and other parts of the Orient. According to Dr King the beautiful aspects of life are only brought out as we appropriate these higher ideals as set forth by the founder of Christianity.

The Commission accepted this challenge and ordered Greb to sign for a bout with Flowers within 60 days or his title would be declared forfeited in New York State. Harry signed up the next day. But shortly thereafter the Commissioners learned that the champion is out of condition and is likely to be beaten in his next fight.
Realizing that if this happened a Negrgo would become the world's middleweight champion, they began to devise some way by which they might get around this situation. An idea came when Dave Shade of California filed a challenge for a bout with Greb. Shade is a wetterweight, but the Commission seemed so pleased to have another challenger in the field that their first order was rescinded and Flowers was told to meet Shade in an elimination bout before he would be allowed to fight Greb.
Sport editors realized that this was an attempt to prevent a Negro from fighting in a championship contest, and started such a storm of protest that the Commission was finally forced to go back to its original ruling permitting Flowers to meet Greb at the New Garden on February 26.
Paul Gallico in the Daily News asked "Why make Flowers meet Shade? Is it because the Commission feels that reb is about ready to be taken, and if Flowers did the taking a colored man would be middleweight champion? Doesn't the Boxing Commission want a colored middleweight champion? Then why don't they say so."
Frank F. O'Neill wrote in the New York Journal: "The demand of the State Athletic Commission that Tiger Flowers, Negro, fight Dave Shade before tackling Harry Greb for the title, is interpreted by many as a deliberate attempt to sidetrack the black man . . . The Commission made itself look queer in the matter of the Dempsev-Wills fight a few years ago, what with ordering articles signed and then declaring them null and void. Now the solons repeat themselves I wonder if Greb had refused to fight the Negro would he have been declared null and void? Did anyone laugh?"
Articles in a similar vein were written by Joe Vila in the New York Sun, Ed. Van Every in the New York Evening World, and W O McGeehan in the New York Tribune.
At a meeting of the Boxing Commission Friday, January 8, Chairman Parley denied that there was any attempt to draw the color line or that veiled racial discrimination was behind the proposed Flowers-Shade bout. He said no attempt would be made to block the Flowers-Greb bout and no effort would be made to force Shade and Flowers to fight at this time.
According to Hype Igoe and other boxing experts, Greb has broken down completely and will be unable to stand ten fast rounds of boxing such as he will face when he meets Flowers. The champion has been fighting steadily for the past eight years, and in addition he has been living a very fast life. For these reasons this fight is generally looked upon as Flowers golden opportunity to become middleweight champion.
'Negro Boxing Fans Uncouth,' Says Promoter
Gus Amos, until recently assistant to Jess McMahon, matchmaker at the Madison Square Garden, complains that Negro boxing fans who frequent the Commonwealth Sport Club at 15th street and Madison avenue are becoming so unmouth in their manners that other fans are not attending shows at this club in the numbers they once did. Amos is now assistant matchmaker at the Commonwealth Club.
Whenever the Negro fighters win from white opponents at this club, and they usually win, their supporters become so enthusiastic that they often make unsportsmanlike and sometimes insulting remarks to the white fans. Amos. Especially is this true, he says, "when the white fan (who has come to see some favorite of his own race upon seeing his man getting the worst of it attempts to escape the house). Remarks of deriving sometimes protane are hurled at such unfortunates. If so they who take the resolve to never attend a mixed bout again.
Sometimes the colored fans go still further in their excitement. But such occasions are rare. These occasions are usually when a Negro fighter has outpointed an opponent but the decision is given the white fighter. At such times peanuts, pieces of hot dogs, etc. are thrown in protest. On one occasion the referee was almost beamed with a soda bottle by a gallery god who disagreed with a decision of the judges. Since that time the special policemen employed by the club have been especiallyignant in keeping order in the gallery.
"While less McMahon is fighting to have Negro boxers break into the big money at the New Garden, Negro fans are insulting the best paying fans at the Commonwealth," moans Amos.

January 6, 7 and 8, the present officers were all relected for another year. Andrew "Rube" Foster, president and founder of the Western Organization had little opposition from the other commissioners of his league.

experienced him. Dr. Johnson was equal to the emergency. He hit his gun quickly and tried and fired accurately. The ones staggered a few feet and went down dead. As she told Dr. Johnson stood still, thrilled and elated, but a bit nervous from his narrow escape. Before he had a chance to lower his gun another shot rang out. It stalled him. He looked around and saw lying aim at his feet a second dead giant him. The shot he had heard had killed the reflex. It had come from Mr. Johnson's gun just as the fireman was about to spring Dr. Johnson.
Mustafa was Dr. Johnson's gun bearer and guide outing the expedition. He knew the Artemis jungle's pretty wet and warmed his musser that morning that he sailed near a mountains den. It was a sunny day the hunter was seeking and he targed on in that an hour he ran away as the hunter he had not seen Mustafa. He assumed his gun bearer was nearing but he didn't know exactly where. When Dr. Johnson tried Mustafa it was a new tessar tawel. Half hidden in a rock he had his gun trained at the lime and we went to cool it immediately with the explorer when he saw it got male with charging from the rear. In trash the Negro was the hunter and tared. The hunter was better and the hunter went down less than a second after he made had a run from the Darton's jungle.
Mirafel A Courageous Man

What he realized he would have escaped this possible death by remaining at his seat. Do I have to mute that that Negro is a leader and that that certain and that certain him to take and to two and to two twelve below. The will has not hurt her and it keeps him friend up there. But Merkel received the first the music
When Dr. Johnson got the cop, by High Time and Rush Box he didn't name him Mirafel immediately. Even though he was a well made youngster and a full brother to Mrs. W. K. Vanderbilt's champion of 1924 and the conqueror of the French star Ephard, he desired to withhold the name. He wanted to know more about the cop and declared that unless he gave evidence of having speed and courage he would not be called after the man who had saved his life. In his opinion the name of Mirafel was too good to be called by a cheap plater.
Colt Named After Trial
Max Hirsh tried the colt last fall and he showed speed and acted as if he were going to develop into a nice horse. The noted trainer impressed on Dr. Johnson that yearling trials are often deceptive and declared he could not vouch for his greatness. But the fact that the colt ran and acted as if he liked to run caused the explorer to take a chance with the name of his friend, and he sent it along to the Jockey Club for registration.
Sportsmen and horsemen in all parts of the country, especially in Kentucky, have heard the story of Mirafeal, and all are rooting that the colt named after such a courageous fellow will make good.
Mirafel, the colt, is not a chestnut like his famous brother He is a bay, but he is marked somewhat the same. He has the same white strips on his face and two white legs. Hirsch says he is the image of the immortal Lexington He says he and several veteran horsesmen learned this by comparing him with photographs of the champion of seventy five years ago. Mirafel, like Sarazen, has several strains of the blood of Lexington coursing through his scars.

"The Fool" Begins 2 Day Run At Douglas Theatre
The much talked about screen version of Channing Pollock's greatest stage play, The Food, comes to The New Douglas Theatre next Sunday and Monday January 17 and 18. Produced by the Fox Company and with a year spent in the making this film story of the Fox, it is created as one of the finest picture of the season by critics and public alike who have seen it.
The book, as many of the theatre goers, will remember who have read the plays in book form or who have seen its stage presentations is the story of the adventures and romance who be believed that he could live like Christ in the twentieth century. It has been ranked as one of the greatest plays ever written for stage or screen, not only because of the moral lesson it contains but also because the sheer thrill and entertainment it melodramatics action and comics.
All of the leading members on the cast were especially selected and Edmund Love scores the greatest success of his meteor career in the role of the heroes minister Dame Goldchrist. Another big part one which Lowell Sherman made tame in on the stage, is that of Jerry played by Ray Bloomer. Brenda Bould a new and pretty face in most pictures but well known on the stage has the role of Clare Others among the leading members of the supporting cast. Anne Dale Riley Hatch, Max Worman George Leses and A. Hertzert.

Doxology was sung back of the curtain, in order to the program side-stated, to create a reference somewhere, whereby the meaning of spirituals to follow might be more fully realized Many of the Spirituals were arranged by Mr Elkins, and just a handful of secular songs were Burleigh's "Soul Southland," and Will Marion Cook's "Swinging Along" J Rosamood Johnson's "Walk Together, Children?" closed the final group of spirituals
High praise is due the singing of the choir. The only local body of its kind before the public it should prove a model for similar choirs if formed both in the results of good training and the expression of emotional spirit. The matters of tone quality—chiefly of the soprano—and correct pitch are among those not yet perfect.

Roland Hayes' Third Recital In New York
Roland Hayes, the great Negro tenor, is to give his third and last recital of the season in Carnegie Hall, on Wednesday evening, January 27. In the last two months a crowded series of recitals in the West and South have but added to the remarkable success and enthusiasm which he has met on every hand. Roland Hayes appeared in Chicago and was greeted by an audience which overflowed the auditorium of Orchestra Hall and filled the stage—an assemblage such as very few artists indeed can attract. In Philadelphia where he had already appeared notably in recital, he sang at a regular pair of concerts as solos with the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra under Leopold Stokowski. Audience and conductor warmly applauded this singer. Among a Southern tour, in December was an appearance in the auditorium of Atlanta. Ga—the first recital of Roland Hayes in his native state. Several thousand assembled in a large auditorium to welcome the artist. These are but single incidents in a series of successes of a sort won by no other singer of the day. Mr. Hayes' programme for this third New York recital will include Purcells When I am laid in earth", Stradellas Seenel Ben", Franck's "Set nur nil", Schumann's "Aus den Ostlichen Rosen" and "Schone Freunde"; Brahms' "Lerchengesang" and "Den laues Auge". Griffes' "In a Merle Shade" Slonimskys' "Autumn", Lowells' "The Last Horizon" Santounda's "Harmonies" the following Negro Spirituals. Washington Heaven got a Home. Dudley M.

Speaking of striking a "bee line," "Getting our ducks in her row," in any other move toward less so archaically idiomatic, "that what we've done. And after all the busiest of the human of the species cannot toil more purposefully or more diligently than the bee. The bee, a thrifty and antagonistic little fellow: has a business to which he always attends. So the best that the best of us can do it decide upon a goal that a clear vision of the pathway of ravel and strike a "bee line."
The human equation, though a big and cumberson thing, has very cleverly classified itself into three units And that matters much, for all material success in life depends upon the power of man and his faculty of knowing and doing Vision is the first principle toward the erection of any structure, or to the discovery of any unexplored track of land. Reason must and will follow, but reason and its best application comes with development and actual progress. It was a boundless and unthwarted vision leading its farseeing master on to do the thing unprecedented and before undone, that led the venturesome unter of all modern travel to the building of the transcontinental railroad that now encircles and transgresses the universe.
Setting forth vision and reason as the dominating powers of all success and blaming perfection or failure upon the of the human equation we'll classify our working capital. There is the man who can and the man who cannot the man who will and who will not. he who dares and he who dares not.
In the building of any institution and all institutional life no element of these three known quantities can be omitted. For each is a requisite and in the founding of an institution where success depends upon the counsel of men the sweat of the human brow and the harmonizing of human souls these affirmative qualifications must be made manifest. For there must be the man who can the man who will the sparkle of youth and the integrity of primarily manhood that dares and ventures to the humanly impossible.
The building of any institution depends not upon what the chief of that organization knows or executes himself but upon his faculty of knowing and gathering around him those who have the conscientiousness to do better and more than himself.
For the year of 1926 the Deacon Johnson's Musicians Exchange has set upon its aims to capture the pear while it has its lure and usurp the air castles within our grasp. This is to be done only by honest tool with honest men. The only place for the swindler and the man of dishonest tactics, with the Exchange, is on the outside. The person, now and ever must know and have the power to do. We must have men who realize that within themselves is the ideal human empire. This is our human empire.

It is a pleasure to all to see the interest the young people are manifesting in the Christian Endeavor meetings, and the marked intelligence with which the topics are being discussed. One of the most vital questions of the present day was under discussion, "How is Prohibition Succeeding?" The young people brought forth some very strong remarks showing that by statistics, prohibition has been a detriment to the young people in New Jersey and New York although it has been profitable in many other states and has brought forth many good results. We trust the good work will continue.
Several new clubs are to be added to the activities of the church Among these new clubs to be added will be an organization whose special duty will be to provide funds for the sick and needy to the church and to others. The pastor has called a general meeting of all the officers of the church for Tuesday evening, January 19, to consider some important matters of urgent need, and also to lay out a plan of work for the remainder of the winter and the spring.
We regret exceedingly the illness of our choirist. Mrs. Ruth Reid, and trust her recovery will be rapid and that we have seen her back in her place in the choir. Others on the sick ost are Mrs. Maggie Jackson, Miss Marjorie Mrs. Ada Welch, Mrs. Wanda Mrs. Irene Johnson.

When Baby Pants For Breath
Of course little babies can have pneumonia. It is no slight thing either when they do get it.
The disease last for a shorter time in infants but there are more apt to be complications in them than there are in adults who suffer from this disease. Pleurisy and car disease are the most frequent of the complicating troubles. The chill of which I shall tell you later when I discuss this disease in adults, is not usually present in little babies although it may come. The first signs of this terrible disease in infants may be vomiting or a convulsion. The baby may appear to have pain in the abdomen and mothers often mistake the onset of inflammation of the lungs for indigestion.
Little babies do not cough as a rule, and they cannot raise the secretion from the lungs and throat because they have not learned how to do this. Consequently these two signs of pneumonia are not seen in babies.
The baby looks sick and acts little and drowsy usually though he may appear very nervous, "delirious" and have twisting muscle which are frightening to mothers and fathers, and for good reason.
Perhaps the most noticeable sign of all but ver and one which should make the parents send for medical help is the breathing of a little baby who is getting pneumonia. A baby breathes somewhat more than a grown person, but even a healthy baby takes little or little breaths in a minute. When a child does that it means that there is trouble somewhere and it must be found and treated at once.
This rapid breathing may be the first noticeable warning of pneumonia in an infant. Call the doctor.
Pneumonia In Old Folks
When an old person gets pneumonia, it is usually a very grave condition which arises. Unlike this disease in its attack upon younger adults it does not begin with a chill as a rule, but slowly and stealthily it creeps upon the patient like a thief into a house in the night. The temperature does not go high and the pain and the cough and expectation may be so slight as to fail to arouse your suspicious as to the actual condition of affairs.
There is one thing, however which may make you suspicious in time to get help early for the old gentleman or old lady, and that is the severe prostration. The patient may appear to have a slight gold, but this shall be accompanied with unusual "Weakness". Whenever you catch yourself saying that about an older man or woman send for your physician and make sure of the condition of the lungs. In these patients, just as the outward manifestations are obscure and alarming so may the sight found upon physical examination be slight and the diagnosis is not always easy to make

at the first visit. However, your physician will be on the watch for poisoning and will do all that can be done to support the flaging energies of the bodies with or without a confident protonemotion as to the cause of the illness. Hence, you make no mistake in asking his treatment.
The danger in these older patients with pneumonia lies in the fact that they may collapse without warning. Nursing care is important and the patients must be watched night and day.
If you notice any unusual indisposition, a slight fever or a pulse that is more rapid than is the rule in one who is aged or in one who has diabetes or some other disease of that sort, suspect that pneumonia is beginning and get hlp at once.

THOUGHTS AND REPLIQUES To Open Letter From J. H. Hogans
Mr. James H. Hogans,
Care The New York Age,
New York, N. Y.
My dear, Mr. Hogans: I have read, with interest, the "open letter" to me contained in your column of The Age of January 9, 1926.
May I ask the courtesy of space in your column to reply I will assume your consent.
First, I want to thank you sincerely for the kind expressions of confidence contained in your letter, and I assure you that I appreciate and value the confidence of my fellow workers which you say I have. If as you say, I also have the respect of my employers, I think I can truthfully say that I have never tried to use that respect or whatever influence I may have, for my personal benefit. All my efforts have been for the general good of our craft.
As most of my friends know, I have never sought or desired election to any of the various committees to which my fellow-workers have elected me. As you know, from experience, such service is a serious drain on both one time and finances. Those serving in such capacity are often misunderstood and willified by the very ones they are honestly trying to serve; and, to me, that is a most distasteful phase.
The compensating factor is that after many years of such service, many of my coworkers still have faith in the honesty of my purpose, if not in the means by which I have tried to accomplish it.
As to the prospective conference with the management of the Pullman Co. I believe as you do, that it is possible to make that conference mean much to our group. If I did not honestly believe that, I would not consider serving as a delegate. If we are to derive the potential benefits of the conference, there must be frank, but dispassionate discussion of the various problems, and a willingness on each side to try to see the other fellow's side of the question as well as our own side.
You have correctly stated that I am not an aspirant for any other job with the Pullman Co. and if I go to the conference, I go solely to try to make my present job a better one.
If I am elected a delegate, I earnestly urge you and all others in our group to submit suggestions for remedial changes in our present agreement. An honest effort will be made to find out what those who send me want, and honestly try to carry out those desires. Again thanking you for your expressions of confidence in my integrity and for your interest in the matter before us.

Picked Up Here And There
The sympathy of every Pullman porter in the New York district who knows him, goes out to Pharah (better known as "Pete") Davis in his present sorrow, which is caused by the death of his wife, who died on Tuesday, January 5, at the New York Hospital. The body of the deceased was taken to Washington, D. C., her native home, on Thursday, January 7, for burial. The death of Mrs. Davis has occasioned deep regret among all the friends she made during her residence in this city. Bossessed of a sunny and magnetic disposition, the deceased had characteristics which endured her to those with whom she came in contact.
One of these characteristics was the devotion which she beatowed on her husband. To her, he was not only a husband, but a companion in the strictest sense of the term; for wifever and wherever one saw Mr. Davis one didn't have to look far to see Mrs. Davis. Especially was that noticeable in their external and social life.
The writer once aided her pokingly if she didnt allow her husband any "off time" (meaning, of course, did her husband go anywhere without her). "Ma she replied, "we didnt marry each other for any 'off time'." That answer exemplified her idea of marital relations.
Besides being a devoted wife and companion, she endeavored to be a financial helpmate he following her vocation, which was that of a school teacher. She taught in School 89 of this city.
Her passing from the stage of life, in what might be termed the prime of existence, is one of those regrettable and inexplicable mysteries for which we can only express our heartfelt sorrow.
The Pullman Company is offering to its employees the privilege of becoming stockholders on the company by purchasing shares of its stock below market price and on the partial payment plan. Under the plan of purchase, porters may subscribe to stock per share at the ratio of yearly salary one share being allowed to those whose wages are $500, and over and two shares to those who are earning $1000 and over.
Some of our porters who are long in imagination and short on logic seem to think that the offer to them to purchase stock in the company has a certain guidance. Why they should think that way is rather unplausal.
As a matter of fact the stock and the terms of written may be purchased are offered to all Pullman employees which include conduct of official personnel and card force. The porters are more on the opposite sides of the other employees. The significance is on these a little.
