Birmingham, Ala.—Special agents from the Department of Justice are in Birmingham investigating the refusal of Registrar L. K. Bowen, leader of the Ku Klux Klan, to permit Negro property owners to register unless they submit to an "intelligence test" of which he was to be the sole judge. When Elizabeth Little, welfare worker, escorted a score of prominent Birmingham Negroes to the County Registrar's office on January 19 so that they might qualify to vote in the coming election, she was arrested. She was sent to jail on a charge of vagrancy. Miss Little states that Bowen had previously told her to keep Negroes from registering lists had closed. The registration books are open for the year on January 1. Thus far no Negro has been allowed to register although the population is 40 per cent colored. When Miss Little was arrested several of those who had sought to register went to the Federal Building and protested.

His service is often requisi- tioned by the members for their homes. It is no small honor for an organiza- tion like the Union League Club to write into its records commendation for the constancy and faithful service of these men. Indeed they are men of integris and the responsible heads of families who are affiliated with churches, traternal bodies and social organizations which make for a higher citizenship and better communities.

James C. Thomas Quits Federal Prosecutor's Service; Opens Office James C. Thomas Quits Federal Prosecutor's Service; Opens Office After about five years of capable service as Assistant United States Attorney, in the office of former United States Attorney William Hayward and with the present incumbent, Emory R. Buckner, James C. Thomas the only colored member of the staff has tendered his resignation to take effect as soon as he can be relieved from duty, to the Department of Justice at Washington. Mr. Thomas was appointed by Col Hayward in 1921, and was continued in his position by Mr. Buckner who succeeded Hayward. He was assigned in charge of the cases covered by the immigration and customs law and was soon recognized as an authorized member of the federal criminal record and Federal Attorney Buckner made a strong effort to keep Mr. Thomas on his staff. The salary of an Assistant United States Attorney is inadequate it is said, for the maintaining of ordinary living standards and four other assistants are said to be resigning at this time in company with Mr. Thomas. Mr. Thomas has secured handsome and spacious quarters in the Park Row Building and plans to specialize in immigration and customs cases. Harlem colored Republicans especial those of the 21st A.D. affiliated with the Appalachian Republican club went down to County Committee headquarters 10 West 40th street Monday January 18 to be heard on the matter of associate executive committee membership and to protest against arbitraries as punishment by Leader Robert S.

Buckner, giving advices to the effect that definite and determined action is being hastened to curb the activities of the group of Italian and Jewish bootleggers who have honey-combed Harlem with camouflaged joints for the selling of alleged alcoholic liquors to the men and women of the community, without regard to law and with less regard for the health welfare of the people. Mr Buckner gives detailed information as to investigation of certain of these places, the location of which was furnished him by The Age editor. Six addresses were sent the Federal prosecutor immediately so that these premises ought to be closed within one week. In two other cases suits are in progress and should be tried on next calendar of the defendants have an Quick Action Had One place has been padlocked two others, he found, had orders pro confess entered against them since early in 1925, but "there has been some delay in entering the decree."

It was proposed that associate members be named from each of these sections to compete with the executive member and pointed out that since there are 101 colored members on the Republican County Committee 21st A D was against 67 white members, was equitable justice to allow not that equal representation to colored voters. The Memorial Presented The memorial presented by Mr Travis is as follows 1. As at present constituted the 21st Assembly District extends approximately, from the north side of 130th street to the south side of 144th street, and from the west side of Fifth avenue to the Hudson River comprising 42 elections districts in which 22 are people mainly by colored residents and 20 by white residents. 2. We suggest that Judgecombe avenue be accepted as a line of division that members of the Republican County Committee representing election districts east of such line shall be accorded the privilege of selecting two associate executive members (a male and a female) such a person to be determined by a vote of members of the Republican county committee representing election districts east of Judgecombe avenue and that the selection of such associate executive members shall occur at the time of the selection of the executive member and that the district Associates Recommendations 1.

In the sixth case, the place has been raided and padlocked, and padlock proceedings will follow the securing of additional evidence. After cutting these facts, Mr. Buckner wrote. If you care to send me another list of six special cases in Harlem which are violating the National Prohibition Act I will have immediate investigations made and inform you as to the results thereof. Thank you for your interest in their matters and BE ASSURED DE MY MOST HEARTY COOPERATION. Dance Hall Raided. Consonant with this action by the Federal Attorneys comes the raiding of five of the most pernicious of the night club in Harlem by police of the West 135th street station the resorts being charged with operating dance halls without licenses. The places visited were The Chin Chin Club 100 West 132nd street Godgraben's recently reopened after being closed for some time George Brown being summoned as the proprietor The Hodgers Club 2207 Seventh avenue to merely the Comedy Club Rudolph Brown alleged proprietor The Squal Club 1 West 135th street Robert Magwood alleged proprietor The Enterprise Club 20 West 135th street Harry Hays alleged proprietor The Basha Inn Club 2404 Seventh avenue George Jones alleged proprietor The "Summons Assassinator" Patrician Boshame dubbed by the host egging attempt as 'The Vasasnaat of Simmons' with Sergeant McWeight both on the 10th Precinct issues summons and all of the men were paraded. Magistrate McQuade insisted that the attorneys except K. K. the Bashaion against whom an additional charge of assault was made to hold him suspect of West 44th street and complained that he had used a police club in seating the suspect at the Bashaion marks the beginning of a drive agile. Harlem result opened the general prowl at dawn ball without having the necessary legal permit. Hosts on station made an uninterrupted tour from the above resorts as was the police made a place on the progres were to be held. The just past is the hostetger is shown in the last that several of the places which have been padlocked are being reopened. In other cases with a padlock on one door the hostetger has been in another place just a few days away. In one case the Silver Inn at 202 52nd Avenue the operators moved just next door to 204 and are now operating under the name of the Elks Restaurant. Euphonoua But Significant The deadly efficacy of the potent dispensed by the bootleggers is sadly domestically emphasized by the selection of names in these resorts that are euphonious, but ironically significant for instance there is the "Dream Nest" at 2154 Seventh avenue. But it is a certainty, attested by the Health Commissioner, Dr. Harris, that those who indulge in the conceptions dispensed By these gentry will do no dreaming when the "Dream Nest" hooch takes effect. Many and bitter are the complaints being registered by the people in neighborhood of 2138 Seventh avenue, northwest, corner 127th street, which has a side door entrance, on 127th street through which women patrons are admitted. Nightly according to the complaints, there patrons ride up in autor, leading the machines parked in the street, and the night air is disturbed by the incessant honking of the automobile syrens, horns and whistles. To this is added the loud talk and unseemingly actions of the patrons of the place, making the neighborhood not only unpleasant and disagreeable, but actually dangerous to the residents. It is noted that the bootlegging places owned and operated by Jews employ as a rule, colored men as bartenders and waiters, while the Italians use only men of their own nationality. An instance of this is seen in a place operated at 113 West 132nd street, which heretofore has been owned by Jews, who employed three colored men, each working an eight hour shift, as bartenders. Recently the place was sold to the Italian bootlegging syndicate and the three colored men are to be quickly displaced and Italians substituted. The place was formerly operated by Groskoof Residents of the block on 127th street, between Seventh and Eighth avenues are also making strenuous objection to the operation of a veritable "hole in the wall" joint located in the rear of the fruit store at southeast corner of Eighth avenue and 127th street. There is no number to the door which opens into the place, it being evidently, the door formerly used as a side entrance to the corner store. The door which admits to the apartments on upper floors is numbered 286 West 127th street There is no window to the place, and no visible sign of occupancy but the close observer hires two small peep holes drilled in each of the upper panels of the door, and when the initiated seeks admission he places himself so that the observer inside can get a view of hum. This being satisfactory, the door is opened and the patron enters. Both men and women frequent the place and are served through a small window, behind which the attending bootleger is stationed. And in all these places, within the past two weeks, the price of boooh has increased. The gun, corn and sherry, formerly 15 and 20 cents, are now 25 cents. Rye sold at 50 cents in one or two places, but more generally at 25, is now 35 cents, while Scotch, called, is listed at 50 cents, served, and a rye whiskey glass. In bottles, from half of a half pint, called a "small bottle," to quarts, there has been an increase of from 20 cents to a dollar. The bootleger says he has to pay more for alcohol since denaturing plants have been closed by Federal authorities. - Drunken Taxicab Chauffeur Runs Down A Pedestrian William Cacker 49 of 57 West 137th street is a patient in the Harlem Hospital suffering with cuts and bruises on his left hip and a possible fracture of the thigh bone. He was knocked down and run over by a taxi cab, operated by Rudolf Jacobs. 272 West 145th street, where he was crossing Lenox avenue at the intersection of 137th street, Monday afternoon about 4:15 p.m. The cab was owned by Michael Richmond. 18 West 137th street.

URBAN LEAGUE WINS WAY FOR WORKERS INTO RANKS OF ORGANIZED LABOR IN N.Y. CITY, SECRETARY HUBERT'S REPORT SHOWS At the annual meeting of the New York Urban League held January 13, it was disclosed by Executive Secretary, James H. Huberty in his annual report that through the influence of the League the admission of Negro workers to the ranks of organized labor had been made possible under advantageous conditions. "For many years," declared Mr. Hubert, "the American Federation of Labor has resigned at its annual conferences in favor of the admission of Negroes in the ranks of organized labor. But it went no further "The Industrial Committee of the New York Urban League, with the cooperation of the Labor Bureau, Inc., in 1924 made a careful study of the Negro in relation to organized labor in New York and environs. Following this study speakers were sent to the various locals to discuss the question of Negro workers with the unions. A committee on Organizing Negro Workers in Trained Unions was formed and on May 25 a conference was called at Arlington Hall, attended by delegates from various unions. The conference not only endorsed the admission of Negro workers in the ranks of organized labor, but formed the Trade Union Committee for organizing Negro Worker. Opening an office with an executive secretary and an assured budget for the first year." , Welfare Workers Present The meeting was attended by representatives from many of the leading welfare agencies in the city, and the principal address was made by William Hodson, executive director of the Welfare Council, which comprises a membership of more than sixteen hundred welfare agencies in New York City. Four new members were added to the Executive board Curtis J. Beard, vicepresident of the Empire City Savings Bank, who was also elected as treasurer, succeeding A.

Republicans Confer With Committee (Continued from First Page) its respective agencies In all matters effecting the 21st Assembly District as a whole such associate executive members shall cooperate with the executive member, or titular leader, in arriving at proper determinations 4. In view of the fact that colored Republicans constitute a majority of the voting strength of the party in the 21st Assembly District (as indicated by the apportionment of members of the Republican County Committee—101 colored members as against 67 white members) there shall be not less than an equal allocation or apportionment of party recognition as between the section east of Edgecombe avenue, and the section west of Edgecombe avenue Conklin Invaded Rights 5. Since there is an overwhelming opinion among colored Republicans that their prerogatives were invaded through the appointment of associate executive members by the executive member of the 21st Assembly District rather than freedom of choice by colored members of the Republican County Committee, opportunity for the selection of such associate executive members as provided in paragraph 2, shall be afforded within thirty days from January 31, 1926 Following the reading of the memorial, various members of the delegation spoke on the subject of representation in the matter of selecting associate executive members in the 21st A D Mrs Christine Maurer of the 13th, spoke, as did Fred R Moore, editor of The New York Age, who generalized upon the situation, local and national, and backed up the contentions set forth by Leader David R Costuma of the 19th A D that the question did not affect the 19th, as that district was in perfect harmony, and that both races were equally represented in the matter of associate executive members. Mrs associate executive members in the 21st A D Mrs Christine Maura A D situation The group of Conklin supporters Mr. and Mrs. Warner, Hawkins and Harries, then set up the argument that they were not familiar with the matters set forth and asked the sub-committee to allow them more time for consideration. Others thought this unnecessary, decaring the issue to be clearer and well-defined and ready for immediate action. The three members of the sub-committee present decided however, to grant a postponement to Monday next, January 25, when the question will be taken up again Will Not Meet Again It was asserted by the opposes to Conklin's methods that this postponement was uncalled for in the face of such a specific statement of recognized facts as was contained in the memorial presented by Mr. Travis, and this group declared it was not their intention to be present at the adjourned meeting. A tentative agreement by members of the sub-committee was to the effect that before presenting a report to the Republican County Committee, the sub-committee would hold a conference and go over the facts presented for the purpose of collating the arguments and for recording the THE TERRY HOLDING CO., Inc WATT TERRY, President Announce the Removal of their Office from 202 West 140th Street to 2380 Seventh Avenue Corner 139th Street Schuyler Butler, chairman Republican Women's State Executive Committee; Fred B.

A branch office has been opened in West 63rd street, the Columbus Hill district. The year ended without a deficit the general fund showing receipts of, $25,979. More than $1,000 of the $20,000 necessary to secure a sum promised by Mr. Rockefeller has been raised, about one-half coming from Harlem colored contributors. The Roswell Skeel Jr Award is to be given for 1926 to the person who, as a volunteer worker does most to promote common welfare of the colored population of Harlem. A special committee will determine the winner and the award will be announced at next annual meeting of the League. Other speakers during the meeting included Bruno Lasker, Eugene Kinkle Jones, Chanmng H Tobias and Laura Cauble. reactions of individual members to the problems presented for solution. In the course of the discussion, it was emphasized that the Negro Republican is not insensitive to the general atmosphere of indifference which seems to characterize the party in its attitude towards the race. Thus, it was asserted, is both local and national. Local evidence was cited in the fact that in various of the Federal offices controlled by the Republicans. There is no substantial recognition recohrded Negro Republicans. Even in the 3rd Internal Revenue District, over which Col Charles W Anderson presides as Collector, the group of more than 200 employees in cludes only six colored, none of whom receives over $1,500 per annum in salary, and none of whom occupy key positions. The same conditions, it is said, obtains in the postoffice, except in one or two instances, since of the hundreds of Negro emplovers, the vast majority are either clerks or carriers of ordinary grades. There is a strong intimation that the Negro Republican will not quietly submit to such indifferent treatment, nor will he willingly agree to continue the victim of party apathy. There is a steady swelling of the undercurrent that marks a determined demand for more consideration from the party leaders, and it is emphasized particularly that in the election of a Governor and United States Senator in New York the Negro vote will be a vital and needful factor to Republican success. Two Boys Are Arrested For Stealing Clothing Two 17 year old youths were arrested by Detectives Scott and Tierney for forcing an entrance into the apartment of Matthew Patterson, 90 West 18th street The prisoners gave their names as Layton Anderson, 1555 Mimford place, Bronx, and Earl Martin, no address and no occupation The two were charged with acting in concert in stealing clothing valued at $150 Founded June 23, 1923, by R. H. Mills, the Prince Hall Square Club, composed of Masons who are in Nipher Federal, State or Municipal employ, held its third annual midwinter soiree on Tuesday evening, January 19, at New Manhattan Cosino. This organization is an adjunct to the Masonic lodges of New York City, and its principal purpose is the dispensing of charity to needy and worthy sufferers. Since its organization, its membership has increased rapidly and its influence for doing has won widespread praise. The annual midwinter frolic and dance is the source through which funds are raised for the Club's treasury. Distinguished Masons occupied boxes and entertained high officials of the order. Past President Harry A. Williamson and Mrs. Williamson had as their guests Grand Master Joseph Sullivan of the Prince Hall Grand Lodge of the State of New York, and Mrs. Sullivan, who were special guests of the club. Two orchestras lent attractiveness to the occasion, dispensing music which was enjoyed by the devotees of dancing. Sonvenira were given the guests, and while the merrymakers were in the height of their enjoyment, a shower of baloons were released among them. The ladies were handsomely gowned, their beautiful costumes presenting a gorgeous array of artistic taste Mrs Harry A.

A. A. C. P. A special fraternity defense fund was established for the purpose of giving aid to all movements in defense of the race. The fraternity adopted as a national program, 'A Bigger and Better Business Movement. One week during the early spring will be set aside as 'Bigger and Better Business Week.' The clean speech movement, was continued as a special college work. The National Health Week, as carried on by the National Business League, was endorsed. Atty. A. Langston Taylor of Washington, D. C., the founder of the fraternity, gives way and the leadership of the fraternity for the first time in 12 years passes into other hands. The following officers were elected for 1926: Atty. A. W.

George Buckner Dead Lexington, Ky - George Buckner, formerly manager of the Lybia Cafe in New York City and a brother to Charles Buckner of the firm of Keyes & Buckner, proprietors of that resort, died here Monday, January 18 after an illness of some eight months. Mr Buckner was prominent in social activities in New York City, having been identified with the annual fashion show promoted by the Utopia Club, and with other functions. As manager of the Lybia, he was in charge of the dinner tendered to 250 Negro soldiers, members of Col Moss's 367th Regiment, the "Buffaloes" by the Union League Club when the camp authorities had failed to include any colored men in a prior general invitation given by the club. Wiley College Marshall, Tex.-The establishment and operation of an extension school in San Antonio, Texas, by Wiley College has served to bring this institution more prominently before the public eye. Favorable comment is being heard not only from San Antonio, where the experiment goes forward, but from other cities. The demand for teachers with higher educational preparation is necessitating additional training on part of many of those who expect to remain in the profession.

Letters Written By Former Treas. Frissell To N. Y. Urban League One of the features of the testimonial dinner on December 3 at Town Hall in tribute to the years of service given by A. S. Frissell as treasurer of the New York Urban League at the same time marking his retirement from that position, was the following letter written by him and read to the diners in his absence. He was confined at home by a serious cold. He wrote to Chairman L. Hollingsworth Wood as follows: (COPY) "530 Fifth Avenue, New York "Dear Mr. Wood: "December 3, 1925 "I understand that this dinner tonight to which I was kindly invited has indirect bearing on myself. Much to my great regret I cannot be present. "In view of that fact, I want to express my sincere regard and affection to all the people in the Urban Leagues with whom I have been working so many years. "While the heat and burden of the day have fallen on others, I have had the pleasure of intercourse with you and especially have had the satisfaction of making fun of yourself which perhaps is the greatest recompense I have had. Fortunately, we are such good friends that you know it was simply chaff with real sound friendship at the bottom of it. One consolation I have is that I shall not hear the kind remarks that will be too complimentary I am sure because your appreciation runs beyond my deserts. "Wishing the Urban Leagues continued prosperity and wishing you all much happiness, in life, I am The committee in charge of the dinner, after purchasing a radiolite dial clock which was presented Mr Frissell, had a balance of cash in hand after the dinner which was used to purchase and send daily floral tributes to Mr Frissell until he sailed on a vacation trip. This consideration drew forth from the retiring official another letter, addressed to his friends and associates, as follows: (COPY) Urban League Movement You are a very delightful movement to me I have been deluged with choice flowers since the committee called on me and this kindness will always be fresh in my memory. The association with the League has been most agreeable to me, and while I have never been able to do what I would liked to have done in the actual work of the League, the meeting from time to time with persons of such fine character and devotion has been a real inspiration. "I can only wish I could turn the clock back a few years and continue to have the comfort of such association. "With real affection to each of you and best wishes for you personally and for the continued success of the league. I am At the annual meeting of the New York Urban Leaguge, held January 13, Miss Elizabeth Walton, of the board of directors, was authorized to write Mr Frissell a letter of greeting, which she did as follows "My dear Mr Frussell "We, of the New York Urban League, at our Annual Meeting and dinner last evening wish to send you our love and greetings. We are looking forward to wider opportunities in our new home, with fresh enthusiasm for our beloved task. You were certainly with us in this spirit, and your friendship will help to carry us forward to a higher goal. Mr. Curtis J. Beard, vice-president of the Empire City Savings Bank has been elected to succeed you as Treasurer. "We hope you are enjoying sunshine and health and will come back to us in the Spring as young as ever. "Sincerely, "ELIZABETH WALTON "Mr. A. S. Frissell." Girls of 137th St. Y Hear Interesting Talks : Registrations are being taken at the information desk of the Branch for rooms in the residence, which will be ready, for occupancy by he end of January. The Beau-Arts Club meeting on Thursday, January 14, was unusually delightful in many ways. The energetic girls had the usual hour from seven to eight in the gymnasium; the next hour was spent in making plans for several delightful events which are before us, the nearest at hand being the annual meeting on January 22, and at nine oclock Miss Bertha Hargrove, director of the Y. . C. A. School of Beauty Culture, spoke on "Good Grooming for the Buay Girl." Miss Hargrove's talk was very interesting but, more than this, it was practical in every particular. The girls asked many questions and got a great deal of help with their personal problems. The girls of the Beau-Arts Club are girls over eighteen years of age, who for the most part, are employed in industrial jobs. All girls' clubs in the Young Women's Christian Association are largely recreational in nature because girls who work all day need relaxation badly. But although the girls of the Beau-Arts Club play a good deal they work some, too, and are interested in the vital problems affecting industrial girls, such as wages, hours, conditions of work and labor legislation. Some of these points will be discussed on Thursday, February 11, by A. J. Muste of Brookwood Labor College when there will be at this Branch a joint meeting of industrial girls from the other branches in New York and from Brooklyn and Jersey City There is also, in the Branch, a newly organized club of business girls who have problems to solve also. On Tuesday evening, January 19, at the regular club meeting Augustus Dill, business manager, of the Crisis Magazine led a lively discussion on "The Joys and Sorrows of an Employer." After the discussion came a social hour with music and refreshments. So much for girls over eighteen! The younger girls have a little "Y" all their own on the third floor, but so active are they in good work and good mes that the first floor never forgets they are here! The officers and committee charmen of the Tri-Ha Club are Misses Gladys Campbell, Marjorie Reynolds, Pauline Booker, Louise Campbell, Lillian Smith, V. Ford, Madeline Magee, Ethel Rose and Elva Mason. This club held its first meeting of the year last Tuesday, resolving to double its membership this month. The club meets every Tuesday evening where the girls discuss different interesting subjects. After club meeting the girls go to the gymnasium and a lively game of basketball ensues. Once a month each committee meets and plans the work of the club. This is the last call for the annual meeting and members' banquet on Friday, January 22 Tickets must be secured ahead for supper which will be served at 7.30 Those who cannot come for supper should be here by 8.30 for the annual meeting. During the supper there will be a pictorial presentation of Branch activities, and after supper brief reports will be made and good music rendered. Ashland Place Club To Be Guests Of Carlton Boys The Carlton Triangle Club composed of residents of Carlton Y M C A is entertaining in honor of the Fleur de Lia Club of Ashland Place V. W. C.

Dr. Willie has been located in Brooklyn for a short time only, at his home, 1140 Herkelm street. Miss Mabel Byrd, membership and industrial secretary, has returned to her work from her home in Portland, Ore. The girls' basketball team played its first game of the season Wednesday evening, January 13, in Montclair, N. J., with the "Y" girls of that town. The score was 20-17 in favor of Montclair. Brooklyn girls playing were Thelma Parsons, Waldine Williams, Helen Mayo, Naomi Verchilds, Dorothy Alexander and Gertrude Jackson. The team coach is Alexander Herndon. Mrs. I. N. Smith contributed to the shelf of Negro literaturo a volume of Dunbar's "The Uncalled." All panning to attend the membership dinner and annual meeting Friday evening, January 29, should secure tickets at once. A turkey dinner is to be served at below cost and only those who make advance reservation can be provided for. Bishop Fountain Denounced By Secretary Ira T. Bryant (Continued From First Page) DON'T THEY SUE US." Secretary Bryant further submits a list of 17 questions, headed "Let Fountain Answer These Questions," in which he covers all of the charges referred to in his poster in detail; citing the particular incidents on which he has based his various charges of misappropriation of funds and mal-administration of church matters. The $2,000 Suit. With reference to the suit filed in the Second Circuit Court, Montgomery Co., for the recovery of $2,000 alleged to be due for printing conference minutes for various Alabama conferences, in which Secretary Bryant and the Sunday School Union are represented by the law firm of Hill, Hill, Whitting, Thomas & Rives the secretary declared that Bishop Fountain's autocratic attitude compelled the taking of this step. "The debt grows out of the printing of the annual conference minutes by the Publishing House in Nashville," said Mr. Bryant. "In our recent effort to establish the dishonesty and theheyery of Bishop Fountain, and prove how he and his wife have entered into a plan to put into their own pockets thousands of dollars dishonestly and against the law of the church, we took the pains to cull from the several conference minutes of the State, sections from the various annual conference finance committees reports, which matter was, in substance, Bishop Fountain's own handwork since he is present and participates in all the work of the finance committees of the conferences. It is generally conceded that these reports more clearly established the truthfulness of our assertions, than any argument ever presented by us. Honest Men Should Pay Debts. In order to fight back at us from behind his official wall of authority, and to inflict a punishment of some kind upon us and the department we represent for this exposure. Bishop Fountain not only refused to pay the bills already due from the various annual conferences, but went further, and ordered that no printing hereafter shall go to the Nashville house It did not concern us greatly that he decided to give the work to others, for in order to do it we are sometimes compelled to turn others away who would pay cash for their work instead of compelling us to wait for months for the money, but we do insist that when any honorable man gets ready to cease doing business with a firm, he should at least pay up his lebts to that firm. Since there seems not to have been enough of the spirit of fairness and honesty in the bishop Women You Like to Look at are almost invariably those who have long, straight hair, which always looks smooth, soft and glossy. You simply can't afford to neglect your hair nowadays, because too many other women of our group are learning how much more attractive they can make them selves, by giving their hair the right kind of attention. You can't imagine how easy it is to make your hair so straight and long and so easy to arange in any manner you wish, and how it will stay that way, by using PLUKO HAIR DRESSING. The first few applications of this delightful preparation will give your hair such a wonderful fragrance and make your hair so straight and glossy, your friends will comment on it, and its regular use will give you a thick growth of long hair. Wise Bertha La Jay, the beautiful and artificial dancer and singer now with the Darkhawn Dance Medical Comedy, which it teaches the Smith and East, says: "I find it very easy to keep my hair long, straight, glossy and easy to dress in any manner I wish using PLUKO HAIR DRESSING. I simply would not be without this wonderful preparation. Pluko WHITE HAIR DRESSING Pluko HAIR DRESSING Black and White Gans 50¢ Green Gans 25¢ MORE THAN A MILLION PACKAGES ARE SOLD A YEAR There are many children of whom it is said that they will not eat. There may or may not be definite physical causes for this. Most often a detailed history of the past feeding habits reveals improper training as the basic difficulty. It is natural that a child should eat less in warm weather for food, like coal, is put into our bodies to furnish heat and therefore less is needed as the temperature gets higher. We believe over-heated apartments may account for some of the cases of poor appetite in winter, as the condition here is not dissimilar to summer in many instances. We have seen cases of overweight babies who did not eat at all, according to the mother. Now the childrent must eat sufficient for their needs or they would not have become overweight. Weighing the baby regularly is the best guide as to whether it is getting sufficient food or not. Yet in cases of this kind it is fairly common to find it difficult to convince the mother that there is nothing wrong. And if the doctor in his best and those associated with him, to pursue such a course as this, we have taken the only step we had left open to us in the emergency." 16-Year Old School Girl Meets Death Under Truck Wheels Winifred OGavia, 16 of 102 East 102 street was run down by a truck and fatally injured Saturday afternoon at 1 50 o'clock. She was rushed to the Harlem Hospital where she died a few hourse later. Winifred was on her way to take her music lessons and got off a northbound Lexington and Lenox avenue surface car at 120th street and Lenox avenue, and had started to cross Lenox avenue going east when she was struck. At the hospital it was found that the frunk had passed over one side of her body, breaking almost every bone and crushing out the intestine. The physicians said it was a miracle that she lived until 6 45 p.m., and was conscious most of the time being able to give a full account of the tragedy.

DEPT judgment does not prescribe medicine, but gives the mother a talk on food and food habits, then that overzealous parent imagines that the doctor does not know how seriously ill" the poor child is. But human nature is as it is. In spite of which we believe it rather unfortunate that people come to a doctor, seemingly, for a prescription for medicine rather than for whatever he deems best. This is particularly a vicious necessity in dealing with infants and children. If a baby is cutting teeth it may not eat well. The cause here is obvious—the sore gums. But is it reasonable to give medicine for this condition? You answer, mother. If a baby is being overfed, either on the breast or from the bottle, that is, if it is being overfed in amount, or the feedings are too frequent, it will have a "poor appetite." Correction here demands your doctor's advice. And again, it may not be necessary to give medicine to get the desired result. A case in point is that of a two months old baby who was fed eight ounces every three hours. It did well for awhile. In fact it did too well. The mother had reached the stage of proudly 'showing off' the child because it was bigger than her neighbor's child who was six weeks older. Well, one may stuff pigs with impunity for the market, but the human infant demands humane feeding no less than care. So our fine overweight baby began to lose its appetite and then vomited considerably. Inquiry showed that the baby had a stationary weight for some time, to correct which the mother added PAGE THREE MORE food, then the vomiting. We were called in, I suspect for the purpose of giving medicine to stop the vomiting. But WE DID NOT! Correction of the formula and interval of feeding with weekly weighings of the baby saved the day here for the rational practice of Infant Care. Again a baby may be fed improper proportions of the several food elements. That is, too much or too little of fat, sugar or protein may cause disturbances of the appetite. The presence of rickets or acrery is oftimes attended with poor appetite, which improves with treatment of these primary conditions. Medicine may be needed in these cases. We have the first child—spoiled petted, pampered—as a problem in later years. In these cases the mother needs treatment first. She must realize her responsibility in the production of the poor appetite and her equal responsibility in its eradication. Will power, plus starving and maybe a little "strap or hand oil" accomplishes wonders sometimes. The "nervous child" has a poor appetite. The same is true of a large and indefinable group of children who are "constitutionally inferior." They have a lowered food tolerance more than normal and medicine is a valuable adjunct for them. We have in mind another type of case—a child of two years who lived on one and a half to two quartes of milk a day. This child was flabby and anemic. Iron in some form, best as green vegetables and in the form of medicine, plus regulation of its dietary brought favorable results after two months. Eating between meals, eating excessively of candy, playing to the point of exhaustion, all affect the appetite. The same is true of mental effort in excess.

As he announced the Master's call to service Dr Hughes persuaded thirty-eight persons to join the church, ten of them being new converts.

The object on the Lycceum service was to reflect the spirit of the revival which is going on. Every fine meet was the result William Woods an evangelistic singer starred great paths with his revival songs. Joseph Philips made a talk on the free spirit that comes with knowing the truth. Another touching part of the song was the song service led by a local Society. crowds have been attending week night meetings. Many visitors have been attending some of these preaching on nights.

J. H. Williams was the preacher at Newman Memorial Church last Sunday at the 1 o'clock service. His subject was "The Church's great commission." The text was taken from Matthew 28.19 and 20, "Go ye therefore and teach all stations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost. Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you and lo I am with you always, even unto the end of the world." A splendid congregation was present at both services At the usual hour the Sunday school assembled Mrs. Julia Page, 4th vice president of the Epworth League, conducted the League devotional exercise at 7 o'clock and is tendering valuable assistance to the president, Mrs. Carrie Hattson to build up the league with among the young people of the church.

Leave us not I praise thee, forasmuch as thou knowest how we are to encamp in the wilderness and thou may be to us instead of exes. The pastor endured "to the attention of his hearer; the tend of mankind to depee himself means and advice for guidance stead of following the command in the leaders of the nation."

Basing the discourse upon John 17:115, the pastor said: There are three great struggles in this world which the Christian must face, the effort to think, the struggle for bread and butter, and the problem of Spain and suffering. Into all of these Christ brings a meaning and purpose which are the only satisfying hope of our life. "Burn your ships in the harbor," like the old Spanish adventurer, who found it necessary to dare an extraordinary tug, in order to compel his soldiers to fight to victory, and not to yield to the temptation to return home to ease.

PAGE FIVE St Paul Baptist Church The members of the B Y P U, under their new leader, David Doughtry, are lining up for greater work in the kingdom of Christ On Wednesday night last the president had his program for the year before the people, which included a budget, calling for a larger amount of money than was raised in the last year, and designations of leaders of the several groups. This program was adopted, and the young people start off to do great things for Christ. At the suggestion of the pastor, the B Y P U, decided to dispense with the meeting on January 20, and go in a body, to the Conference on Personal Evangelism held in the Marble College Church. Likewise the Sunday school voted to send representatives to the same meeting. Doubtless the whole church will be well represented in this conference. Covenant meeting which began loday night was continued Sunday morning at 11 conducted by the par- tor. The members are all them- selves of the opportunities to tell at their love to God and their brethren and sisters. No enthusiastic did they become that it was difficult for the part to close that part of the ser- vice. It was gratified not with what willingness the members responded to the plan of our church roll and more envelopes have been given out than in any year for the same period. It is expected that every member of the church will fall in love with the present program at the church, and respect and address with the Secretary. In the afternoon at 4 o'clock, Rev A Lewis brought a message to the Missionary Society in "The Gospel" His service will be long remembered by all who hear it.

B. A. JOHNSON 40 CENTS (Postpaid) Address M. S. F. A. Harris 1017 Luray Street, Phila. Pa. THE --- FROM official reports of the annual meeting of the Eastern and Western Baseball Leagues, in Philadelphia recently, it would appear that the 1926 season promises to be the most prosperous in the history of these organizations. But the outlook is far from bright, say those who know the inside workings of both leagues. The West has for several years been grumbling because Ruhe Foster, their president and founder, forces member teams to pay a 5 per cent booking fee for games booked through him (and all games must be booked through him) although as an official of the League it is a part of his duties to arrange a schedule and book the games. About two years ago this resentment broke out into an open fight between Foster and Tenny Blunt, then owner of the Detroit Stars. But Foster somehow managed to call Blunt off and arranged to sell his interest in the Stars at a handsome profit, it is alleged. Now a similar situation is arising in the East Through his booking agency and his control of semi-professional ball parks in Greater New York, Nat Strong has become the dominant baseball magnate in the Eastern League. He owns the Brooklyn Royal Giants, controls the Cuban Stars, and dictates to both the Hilldale and Bacharach Giants clubs A report has it that most of the eastern owners were thoroughly disatisfied with Edward Bolden and his narrow, partisan rule as president of their association. Through an alliance of the Lincoln Giants, the Baltimore Black Sox, the Harrisburg Giants, and the newly organized Newark Stars, it was planned to depose Bolden at the annual meeting. Information to this effect reached Mr. Strong, so the story goes, and he is alleged to have said that if Bolden was deposed, none of the teams who voted against him would be permitted to play ball in New York. In this way one or two of the teams got cold feet and refused to stand by their previous agreement. The reason why the outlook for the League is not so bright is that both Foster and Strong are more interested in making money than they are in the League. It is a notorious fact that although Mr. Strong controls Dexter Park and the Farmers' Oval in Brooklyn he has never made any effort to provide any home grounds for his two League teams—the Royals and Cuban Stars. So long as the Royals are sufficiently strong to prove a good road team, Mr. Strong does not seem to care whether they win a pennant or not. And it is because of this attitude and his seeming intention of putting his private interests above the welfare of the League and his own member teams that the general dissatisfaction seems to be growing. Other member teams, such as the Baltimore Black Sox and the Harrisburg and Lincoln Giants are striving as never before to turn out teams which can depose Hilldale from the championship. When Hilldale falls, Ed Bolden's days as president, and those of Nat Strong as dictator of the League, will be numbered.

Miss Olive Hopkins Sings At Renaissance In keeping with the anniversary program at the Renaissance Theatre during the entire month of January, the management has engaged Miss Olive Hopkins to be the soloist at the theatre at the evening programs all this week Miss Hopkins hardly needs an introduction to the Harlem public. Her ability as a soloist of rare worth is well known. Miss Hopkins appearances the early part of this week met with the hearty approval of the Renaissance patrons. She songs both classical and popular selections each night. For Thursday and Friday January 21 and 22 the feature picture at the Renaissance Theatre will be Mara Murray in *The Masked Bride*. This picture is a story of the Paris underworld and is one of the most amazing romances ever blown. It is seen the swift pulsing life and the glamour and the mystery of the hidden haunts of the Apaches. It will ease you breathless with its thrill and surprise. Saturday Sunday and Monday January 21, 24 and 25 the attraction will be Rudolph Valentine in tribute. This is one of the biggest pictures which the famous Valentine has ever appeared in and places him in a fine role as a young Italian nobleman who cannot escape the bite of a beautiful woman. It is a strictly modern story of tempestuous love stirring drama with Nita Naldi as the cobra woman, and is one of the best pictures ever brought to the Renaisance. The music loving public is beginning to flock to the Renaisance Theatre every Sunday to hear the popular Sunday afternoon concerts by the Renaisance Concert Orchestra, E. Gilbert Anderson, conductor. These concerts, starting promptly at 1 p.m., are classed as musical treats by all who hear them and the admission is the usual one.

The old record for the seventy yard dash was 8 3-5 seconds. Miller's time on Saturday was 7 4-5 seconds. According to George R. Ralston, director of athletics at the Frederick Douglas Junior High, young Miller is a coming sprint champion. Carlton Y. M. D. Five Beats Greenpoint "Y" The Carlton Avenue Y.

The half ended 127 in favor of Carlton. The Greenpointers could not stand the pace set by the Carltonites in the final half, who demonstrated their standard brand of basketball Grossoner. Smith and McClammy starred with wonderful playing, both offensive and defensive. As usual, McClammy had his eye on the basket, clearing the basket from all angles.

Neader Substitutions Carlton Harris for Oliver Hampton Downs Shaw In Fourth Straight Victory Hampton, Va. - For the first time in four years, an opponent scored first on the champion Seaders, but this brilliant shot by Armstrong was not sufficient to discourage the invincible Hampton hye who ran up a score to a 14-6 lead during the first halt, and recklessly tore away from the bonds put upon them by the Bear Brigade and in the final stanza ran wild to pile up a 42-15 count. Shaw opened the fray with a dash and sum that caused a but of unrest among the Hampton supporters. The Red and White lads got the tap and almost within breathing time Armstrong had smeared a slate held clean almost four years. But "Cutie" Brown relieved the strain from the Hamptonians when he dropped one from the tail line. The spectators were in intense excitement when Ainsworth recorded a beautiful overhead shot to give his Bears a 4-1 advantage. While Diamond, who had substituted for Yergan completed his teammates' scoring with a long shot from almost the center of the floor, Hargrove defined disaster for the assistors with five clean and dazzling goals. At the same time I F F "Savage" Brown contributed a double-decker and "Cute, a single count." In the next period this same "Savage Brown exemplified his viciousness by adding four additional double counters and one single to claim points scoring honors with Hargrove who offered only a free throw in the final half for a total of eleven points. I amrbrought secured four field goals, "Chet Jones three, and the other Brown a foul shot and field goal for a sum of five points. Tex Rickard's Ratings Of Boxers; Ranks Chick Suggs, Leading Bantam Tex Rickard, premier boxing promoter, has issued the ranking of the first fifteen boxers in the nine recognized divisions. The rating was made according to their performances during 1925. In most cases he ranked the champion of the division as No. I. The one exception was that of Chick Suggs, bantamweight of Providence, R. I., who was ranked as number one over the present champion of that division, Charley Phil Rosenberg Among the other colored boxes in the ranking were. Harry Wills as number 2 in the heavyweight division; Gorge Godfrey of Philadelphia, sixth among the heavyweights; Tiger Flowers, Atlanta, Ga., third in the middleweight division; Joe Gang, Alentown, Pa., fifth in the middleweight division, Jack McVey, New York City, tenth among the welterweights, Al Brown of New York and Black Bill of Cuba, fifth and sixth among the flyweights. At Lincoln Theatre "Little Anne Rooney" made a tour of the Los Angeles streets recently, accompanied by her "gang". She was on "location" and needed traffic congestion for the final fade-out of her new United Artists Corporation picture now at the Lincoln. She found it for when "The World's Sweetheart" clad in a bewitching organdy frock and wearing a floppy, big hat was recognized atop of the big truck, there was all the traffic congestion that even William Beaudine, her director could desire Indeed, Mary had a parade all her own. Once she was discovered almost the entire populace fell into line, knowing that "truck shots" have to end somewhere and that if they were patient, they were apt to see Mary in action at close range and not hedged about by difficult gatemen and tiresome studio restrictions. Accompanied by her admirers, after a tour of the business section, the company invaded the wholesale district. There at Second and Alameda streets, to the vast amusement of the crowds, Miss Packford, perched high on Joe Kelly's truck, topped time and again to the floor of the truck backward with her tiny feet waving helplessly in the air toward the camera. She enjoyed the fun herself hugely and repeated the stunt until the cameraman and director expressed themselves as satisfied in spite of the impromptu audience's evident desire for an encore.

Baltimore, Md.-The Howard University basketball team went down in defeat before the Morgan College five in a spirited contest Wednesday evening, January 13. The final score was 25-18. Under the direction of Howard C. Wright, director of physical education in the Baltimore Junior High School, the Morgan team has developed to be the strongest in the history of that institution Morgan got off at a good lead in the game on Wednesday night and although Howard made a desperate fight in the last half, the local team was never in danger of being overtaken. Hill was the high scorer for Morgan while Simpson, who was put near the end of the second half for personal fouls, led the Howard team in the points scored Other players in the lineup of the two teams were: Morgan Clark, Jones Wheatley, Young, Hawkins, Payne and Sheffey, Howard, Costes, Lawton, Spears Johnson, Spencer, Morroney, Bundant and Berry Clafin Quintet Loses Opener To Paine College Orangeburg, S. C. —The Clafin five invaded Paine College at Augusta, Friday, January 15, and were defeated by a score of 27-14. In the first half Clafin drew the first blood by scoring a field goal immediately after the tip off. This score was followed by another and it looked as if Clafin had the form to whip their host, but Paine calmed down, and began to make baskets in rapid succession when Stallworth, Paine's best player, had precise aim on his target. The half ended with Paine leading, 27-14 The second half saw a tightening defense by Cagers from Claflin, while their offensive proved a bit stronger also.

The Atlanta City Armory has been secured for this encounter and an overflow of fans is expected to crowd this historic hall. The Maroon clan returns the visit on February 22, and the famous Hampton gymnasium will be filled to capacity to view the spectacle. On the way home, Hampton will drop in on A & T, Greensboro, and Shaw, Raleigh, on February 12 and 13, respectively. Shaw Noses Out St. Paul Raleigh, N.C.—After forty minutes of contorting field play the Shaw "Bears" noted out the St. Paul "Tigers" by a one point margin, the final score being 17-16. The "Bears" opened the affray with a growl, caging six points in rapid succession only to be finally ridden by the "Tiger." After ten more minutes of field play Amis of St Paul finally found the basket for two points. On went the battle for ten more minutes and at the final whistle of the opening half the count stood "Bears" on "Tiger" 10 to 6. St Paul stood unperturbed as the freezing elements of the "Bears" froze all around them. They lost and Shaw won so ended the hectic struggle. For St. Paul, Amia, Pierce and Robinson alone. For Shaw, Black, Palkener and Armstrong, were out-standing. Black being the high point scoreer of the game caging ten points.

SUNDAY AND MONDAY, JAN. 24 and 25 GEORGE O'BRIEN in "FIGHTING HEART" Presented Exclusively First at THE LINCOLN THEATRE Durham, N. C.-The year 1926 brings to a culmination an effort which has been under way for several months, in the chartering under the laws of the State of North Carolina of the First National Negro Theatre Corporation, an organization with an authorized capital of $100,000 which will do a general theatrical and moving picture business. F. K. Watkins, popularly known as the "Movie King"; Will Scales, operator of the colored theatres of Winston-Salem, and S. H. Vick, banker and, theatre owner of Wilson, have taken the initiative in the movement. R. McCams Andrews is legal adviser. The powers conferred upon the corporation include financing as well as theatre operation, vaudeville development and film production. W. S. Scales, who is vice-president and booking manager, will extend the booking service to all Negro theatres for pictures, shows and vaudeville. The president, F. K. Watkins, will undertake to finance for various communities now wanting to establish play and picture houses whatever plans they present, and the corporation will also standardize and project model theatres to suit the needs of the several towns and cities throughout the country. S. H. Vick is the treasurer. Negro business men, unacquainted with the theatrical world, have frequently desired to extend their operations in various amusement enterprises, and a few of them have ventured in the amusement field, but usually with doubtful success. On the other hand, colored theatre operators with very few exceptions, have been without capital and have had to rely upon white capital. In the case of the First National, however, the Negro banker and business man and the theatre owner or operator will join hands and will unite capital and experience in the promotion of the corporation. The launching of the First National Negro Theatre Corporation follows a series of successful business developments in Durham, now regarded as the foremost commercial center in America for Negroes. From the standpoint of successful business experience and established contact with other Negro centers, the new corporation ought to have the greatest success. Montgomery, Ala.

Editor of The New York Age; The annual conference of the National Urban League and the annual meeting of the organization will be held here in New York on February 3, 4, and 5. May I ask you to give your earnest thought to the possibility of attending? There is no gathering at which one can see the body and feel the spirit of the National Urban League in anything like the clearness of outline, that one can at the annual conference. Here are gathered together the men and women, as executive secretaries and industrial secretaries, etc., are making up the working staffs of our local organizations. They are the people who are doing the work and, as we find them meeting, exchanging views, discussing procedure, warning each other's enthusiasm, listening to addresses and analyzing them in discussion afterward, one is buoyed up with the knowledge that they are a remarkable group of men and women and that any race that can produce such people full of promise for the welfare of mankind in general. There is another advantage which I covet for the National organization and that is a more intimate acquaintance-hip among board members, a knowledge of each other which only such personal contact as these meetings provide can bring about. I hope you will urge friends of our work, both white and colored, to attend the meetings and aid us. Very truly, L. HOLLINGSWORTH WOOD ' Negress Editor of The New York Age: *Lioness, tigress, leopardess.* Just the mere calling of these names shows what sentiment was behind the coinage of the words "Negress" and "jewesas." It was a disposition to animal classification. That terminal affix means "she," of course, and we might as well say she-Negro, she-Jew—as in fact we do say she-bear and cow-walrus. No word is either good or bad in itself. Its character depends solely on its connotation and on what sentiment it springs from and on what it suggests. Just as we say "Caucasian woman," so might we say Jewish woman and Negro woman or colored woman. It takes a bit more of breath or ink, but it is a heap more polité and human-like. WILLIAM PICKENS Calls The New York Age "The Book Of Life" Editor of The New York Age: Will you allow me space to say that a paper which heralds the finer things of the day and the years to come is a paper worthy of the highest praise its readers can give it. And it is conceded that The New York Age be listed with premier newspapers as "The Book of Life" in this progressive age.

An Employer's "10 Demandments" The Literary Dijest gives credit to E. J. Jolly & Son, San Francisco insurance adjusters, for a copy of the following "Ten Demandments," which are said to hang in a London factory: 1. Don't lie. It wastes my time and yours. I am sure to catch you in the end, and that is the wrong end 2. Watch your work not the clock. A long day's work makes a long day short, and a short day's work makes my face long. 3. Give me more than I expect, and I will give you more than you expect. I can afford to increase your pay if you increase my profits. 4. You owe so much to yourself that you cannot afford to owe any body else. Keep out of debt, or keep out of my shops. 5. Dishonesty is never an accident. Good men, like good women, never see temptation when they meet it. 6. Mint your own business, and in time you'll have a business of your own to mind 7. Don't do anything here which hurts your self-respect. An employee who is willing to steal for me is willing to steal from me. 8. It is none of my business what you do at night. But if dissipation affects what you do the next day, and you do half as much as I demand you'll last half as long as you hoped. 9. Don't tell me what I'd like to hear but what I ought to hear. I don't want a valet to my family, but one for my money 10. Don't kick if I kick. If you're worth while correcting you're worth while keeping I don't waste time cutting snacks out of rotten apples.

The officers of the service must submit to a physical examination at the hands of the medical examiners, the order was withdrawn indignantly and voiceless protest from many of our porters. These porters claimed that the order was arbitrary and discriminatory in character, moreover, that this examination was unnecessary as long as they were able to work. They pointed to other railroad workers, such as the engineers, conductors and trainmen, who are non-handlers of food, and who did not have to undergo this ordeal. And as the physical condition of these employees was of more importance to the health and safety of the travelling public, than that of the porters, since they were the operators of a train and the more responsible guardians of the public safety, that the porters were called upon to undergo another phase of unorganized condition. They also averred that if they were a group of workers, whose industrial rights were better protected that this order would not have been put into effect. It did appear at the time as though the porters were made to do something from which other railroad employees, not connected with the handling of food, was exempted. The order, nevertheless, had to be obeyed, and, considering the age of many of the porters, the percentage of those found unfit for service was extremely small. And now comes the news that the New York Central Railroad has issued an order, which went into effect on January 11 of this year, that all of its engineermen, conductors and trainmen must submit to physical examination. If it is said that when this order was issued, some of these employees took the matter up with their Brotherhood heads, with the idea of having them protest against it, but that, these executives informed them that their employee had a perfect right to know the condition of their health. So it is not only the porters on the railroad who have to undergo health examination now, and these other employees are protected by the strongest union in the country.

Detectives Are Cleaning Up Gun-Toters In Harlem Tuesday afternoon Detectives Boyden and Winterhalter were walking along Eighth avenue and saw a man standing on the corner of 130th street.

That he was waiting there on the corner for a man who had an appointment with him to buy the gun, but the man had not shown up. As he was being led to a cell the lamented that had the man shown up he would not have been arrested.

A number of the substantial porters of the Grand Central Terminal district are planning to give a dinner for Mr. Griffin before he leaves for Chicago. Mr. James L. Perkins, the efficient house committee chairman of the Pullman's Porters' Club, left New York on the Twentleth Century Limited on Sunday, January 17; for Chicago, from which place he will go to Hollywood, Cal., to visit, his wife, who is sojourning in the motion picture colony. Mr. Perkins expects to be away from his duties for several weeks. Mrs. Charlie T. Green of 211 West 40th street, wife of one of the best-known and best-liked porters in the New York district, is slowly recovering from an attack of illness which has kept her confined to bed for several months. Mrs. Green- is an industrious member of St. Marks M. E. Church and when in health gives much of her time to its many activities. FAVORITE MEMBER OF The esteem in which Odessa Ruth Spencer, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest C. Spencer, 47 West 66th street, was held in life was shown by the fitting tribute paid by members of the younger set and men and women in religious and social circles at her funeral services last Sunday afternoon. At the age of 22 Miss Spencer died Thursday, January 14, after an illness of several weeks, and services for her were held in St. Mark's Methodist Episcopal Church, Edgcombe and St. Nicholas avenues, at 138th street. It was conducted by the pastor, Rev. John W. Robinson, D. D. Resolutions read from the Sunday school by Elizabeth Mickens showed that the young woman had been a teacher in the Junior Department for seven years and until her health had prevented. Other resolutions were from the Junior Department of the school by Allie Davis, the Teachers Department by Mrs. Mary Ross, and case 15 by her friend Ida Payne. Dr. Robinson began his eulogy with a fitting quotation from Browning, and speaking of the model young woman whose life he called beautiful the preacher by way of illustrations drew many appropriate and pretty pictures of characters whose lives had ended in youth. "Death at any age or period," Dr. Robinson said, "was always an unwelcome visitor. In fact," said the preacher, "I have been trying to answer the question for myself. When is the time to die?" Floral tributes were profuse, and interment was in the family plot in Mt. Olivet Cemetery Burial arrangements were in charge of Colbert & Clover Pallbearers were John Long, Henry Rhodes, Henry C Parker, jr., Rhoderick Dyer, Joseph Steber and Emory Redding Miss Spencer is survived by a mother and father, Mr. and Mrs. Ernest C.
