Should Dr. Durkee accept the call he woud arrange to remain as head of Howard for the balance of the present school term. His resignation it is thought, will be tendered the Howard Board of Trustees at their spring meeting.
Dr. Durkee has been president of Howard since 1918. During this time the university has made marked progress, both scholastic and material. But during the past year a section of the alumni have been extremely critical of the policies inaugurated by Dr. Durkee and last summer went so far as to demand his resignation. This last act was brought about by the dropping of several prominent members of the faculty and the discontinuance of certain courses of study.
Although the Board of Trustees voted unanimously to stand by Dr. Durkee in his attitude it is believed that the criticism directed against him has done much to cause him to decide to give up educational work.

Dr. Mr. HUHERT
Pressure of the States business at the capital keeps me from greeting in person the delegates of the fifteenth annual conference of the National Urban League. I regret my absence all the more because the conference is the guest of the New York branch whose members I am glad to count as home-town friends and neighbors.
It's an event of no more local significance however for your organization is dealing with vital problems affecting a large part of the National population. The progress of the coloured people of America is properly a source of pride to that race and to every white man who treasures the basic principles upon which our democracy is founded equal rights to all and special privileges to none.
Easy Mobility Brings Changes
If there is one characteristic of modern society which differentiates it from life even fifty years ago it is the speed with which changes take place today. This easy mobility has affected fundamental changes in the status of our colored fellow citizens. I need only refer to the last migration of colored people from the South to the industrial area of which there has cared with it in the industrial population of congested districts, such housing health and general living condition. Your organization throughout the country is dealing with them una constructive way. They are so difficult and complex that I congratulated you upon the existence of these Urban League branches which are serving as unengled agencies to solve them not only for colored but for all Americans. For I am one of those who believes that the same adjustment of the races in a spirit of tolerance and instigue is one of the most pressing
Troops Called Out To Guard Prisoner in Georgetown, Del.
Georgetown, Del.—Delagare goes on record following Kentucky in upholding the law by using the State's National Guards to protect a prisoner charged with criminal assault upon a 12 year-old girl from a lynching mob.
Harry Butler was arranged for trial Monday in the County Court House, while his little victim was reported ill in a local hospital.
A crowd throughed the streets as the state troops marched through the town to guard the court house while the trial was in progress. The entire square was roped off and machine guns were used while a squad of 25 state police was on duty.
The alleged crime was committed on January 21. Soon after Butler's arrest a mob of nearly thousand men searched every jail in the vicinity but the prisoner had been put away for safe keeping.

Frayne Talks On Preindice.
In his address, Mr Frayne said he brought good wishes and good will from President Green of the A F of L. Takup the matter of prejudice against the Negro laborer, Fayne asserted that the national body does not discriminate at all against a Negro, or against any race or creed. The doors of the A. F. of L. he declared, are opened wide. But, he admitted, there is discrimination in local unions—groups that have not learned that to close the door against any worker as not helpful to that cause of trade. He admitted that to break down this prejudice the "Negroes should "sell themselves to the white man," through educating the latter to the point of understanding the Negro's value as an industrial entity.
Jesse O. Thomas, southern field secretary, National Urban League, cited facts showing a definite rivalry between the North and South for Negro labor. This had developed to the extent that in small towns in Georgia Negroes were not able to buy raffle tickets to northern schools, so they came to moderate point first, such as Memphis or Atlanta. In other states, said he, the interstate transfer of laborers by contractors is heavily taxed. And agents are sent North to traign back Negroes who have migrated. At the same time, Mr Thomas disclosed that Chambers of Commerce and other civic bodies are using "legitimate means" for Keeping Negro labor aboard the South for elementary and vocational schools and by campaigns for better rural understanding in such cities as Atlanta and Birmingham.
Interracial Movements do Good
Inter-racial movements, continued Mr. Thomas, are bringing about better conditions as is evidenced by conferences between white and colored college students, and the recent observance in Atlanta of Religious Emphasis Week in which both races took part when the Rew Mordecai W. Brown of West Virginia was invited to speak to white congregations, with non-segregation in scaring arrangements in the majority of white churches. In the am, the Metropolitan Life luncheon was served, followed by an inspection of the Metropolitan building Vice-President Frankel in charge of welfare work for the insurance company said that of the 23,000,000 policy blenders a goodly percentage were Negroes.

Harris, Health Commissioner of New York City, whose subject was Heterosexuality. He compared infant mortality in Harlem with the lower East Side, showing 163 against 56 to the 1,000 deaths respectively for the two sections. He declared also that 75 per cent of the small cases in New York during the past ten years originated from migrant Negroes out of the South. This however he declared attested poor health conditions and was not a criterion of the Negroes. Leslie Punkey Hill principal Chester Normal School, Chester Pa.

Randolph Says Pullman Wage Conference Was A Miserable Failure
Randolph Says Pullman Wage Conference Was A Miserable Failure
In a telegram to The New York Age A Philip Randolph general organizer for the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, declared that the Pullman Wage Conference held at Chicago, under a call from the Pullman Co., with representation from both company and employee body had ended in failure He wired, in part. First the Brotherhood two delegates refused to sign agreement All delegates disgusted It is a victory for the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters Conference raised wages only 8 per cent. Brotherhood will go in for more. "Seen by an Age Representative, Mr Randolph only had the conference failed intuitively that was an insult to the porters, and that he had predicted such an outcome. The conference was called according to Mr Randolph in order to halt the amazingly rapid progress of the Union The Brotherhood compelled the company to call it The Brotherhood also compelled the company to grant the wage increase and to give back the porters' dittions. The Company realizes this, and consequently, it did not give the men at this Conference any higher increase than a painful 8 per cent, because it knew it would have to deal with the Brotherhood in the very near future and that it would have to grant another increase in wages, wake up and dissatisfaction have occurred by porters throughout the country because of the failure of the Conference.
According to Mr. Randolph the Brotherhood is preparing its case to go before the Railroad Labor Board or any other government agency, which may have jurisdiction over this class of railroad workers in the very near future. It should be on the Brotherhood to rally, as it has done, for the per cent of the porters as an evidence of their whelming repudiation of the Wage Conference; and that the men realize that their only salvation lies in an organization of, by and for Pullman porters

Grenthal Introduces Bill To Change Party Control In N. Y. City
Grenthal Introduces Bill To Change Party Control In N. Y. City
Assemblyman Grenthal of the 19th A.D. of New York City, has introduced a bill in the State Assembly which provides that instead of five county committee chairmen, the City of New York would have one city-wide committee which would direct and control party polities, thus eliminating the situation of divided authority which obtains at present.
"The City of New York, with approximately half the population of the State," said Mr. Grenthal, "frequently finds itself in opposition to the rest of the State regarding politics. It has never succeeded however in impressing its importance upon the State because of the divided authority in the city.
"In the Republican party particularly, in which I am interested, we have three or four leaders in Brooklyn and one in New York.
"The city is big enough to have a city leader who would represent the entire city in its political affairs. Intelligent city leadership should result immediately in more effective county leadership.
"My proposed bill makes the head of the city committee an elective officer chosen by the enrolled voters of the city because I believe that to he the only way a city leader can be elected in which the mass of voters have confidence.
"In New York County it is practically impossible to displace the chairman. He has so many district leaders under obligation to him that they are bound to support and re elect him to his office. Strong city leader should immediately be able to exert conditions in different of the city where divided responsibility has dissipated the Republican vote."
Atlanta City Council Reconsiders Bill To Ban the Negro Barber
Atlanta City Council Reconsiders Bill To Ban the Negro Barber
Atlanta, Ga.—Almost instant reaction in the shape of protests from the Chamber of Commerce, the Georgia Manufacturers' Association and the laymen's Regional Conference and Methodist Church caused Councilman John White of the 4th ward to call for reconsideration of the ordinance passed by the City Council prohibiting Newco barbers from slaving white parrons. The strong protests from these leading white organizations stirred some of those who voted for the ordinance to a realization of the measure's unpopularity and several announced a willingness to vote for a reconsideration. Consequently when the City Council convened on Thursday, February 4, there was an almost uniform voice vote to reconsider the measure, and to hold a public hearing on the matter on Thursday, February 10.
Would Ask Court Action
Prior to the holding of the adjourned session of council, called by Alderman Claude Buchan, Mayor protegem a number of protests from various civic and commercial businesses had been tied with Mayor Simons' office by Hoffman, president of the Chamber of Commerce, deferred the chamber would go into the courts to enclose the office of enforcement the ordinance in control of its enactment. Councilman White, in moving for a reconsideration of the measure, said he had voted for it originally under a misapprehension that he had been threatened out in a public meeting meeting and a number of the councilmen had voted for the bill under the same conduct. The motion for reconsideration made by Councilman White was seconded by Councilman Gus Dobbles. Then a statement was introduced by Councilman Harry York from John W. Swain, president of the white house, stating that the measure was sponsored by that or organization. At the same time statements were read from the City Club and the Committee on Church Cooperation opposing the measure. The bill was originally introduced by Councilman D. W. Adams of the 12th Ward and he made a statement de la harpe he acted in good faith the best will as a Negro barber's large well as a Negro barber's and deserved an attorney at large license.
To Have Public Committee Hearing
The Human York then moved the art of a special committee for deliberation in the measure, as a substitute Councilman White moved that the measure be tabled by the senators should come through the State Legislature. Councilman Russell as a substitute both moved the measure to the Dainance Committee to public hearing. This was almost unanimously carried on a sly vote, and Chairman Horace of that committee set the tenth date for the measure provided that after June 1, Negro barter may serve on his patron, and vice versa.

Douglass At Astor House
Editor of The New York Age:
Much comment is going the rounds of the metropolitan journals concerning the passing of that old and famous hostess, the late Barbara Dawley and Vesey street, for the erection of a more imposing structure for office purposes. One journal, in speaking of the many celebrities who enjoyed the entertainment of this liberal hotel neglected to state that our own Frederick Douglass was also entertained there during his escape from slavery, through the assistance of the Underground Railroad. In 1863, the officer of Ann street and Broadway that whereupon Douglass tigned quickly and was lost in the Astor Hotel, whence he escaped to Canada.
While the Astor House and its passing may not be of much interest to the average Negro citizen, yet it appears to the writer that the younger element should be informed that there was sufficient liberality to give one of their race a chance to attain better conditions.

LEADER COSTUMA NAMES BRONX MEMBER OF ASSEMBLY AS AUTHORITY FOR CHARGE THAT KOENIG CAUSED DEFEAT OF GRENTHAL BILL
David E. Costuma, Republican executive committeeman from the 19th A. D., in response to an invitation from the chairman of the Resolutions Committee of the County Republican Committee, to attend a meeting of the Resolutions Committee and submit such information as he had to support the resolution which accused County Chairman Samuel S. Koenig of having brought about defeat of the Grenthal Rent Bill in the last Legislature, has informed the committee chairman that Assemblyman B. Democrat, of the Bronx, had given such information both to Assemblyman Greenthal and to himself. Costuma, in the presence of a reputable witness.
After acknowledging receipt of the invitation to attend the "adjourned meeting" of the Resolutions Committee on Tuesday afternoon, February 9, at 4:30 o'clock, at County Committee headquarters, 105 West 140th street, Mr. Costuma wrote the chairman, Judge John R. Davies, under date of February 6, as follows:
Leader Costuma's Letter.
"The moving clause of my resolution called for the appointment of a special committee of five for this specific purpose of following up the Grenthal Bill in an effort looking toward the enactment of such legislation in the 1926 Session of the Legislature. It is my judgment that a special committee should be appointed for this purpose. If the Resolutions Committee does not agree with me, they will report against the resolution, but if they do agree with me, all that is needed is to report favorably on the enacting clause. I think that all members of the Committee are fully cognizant of the import of the measure in question and, of course, you, my dear Judge, are intimately familiar with its aims and purposes. It would seem to me that the scope of your Committee would cover just this phase and none other."
"Where Information Came From."
The other question involved, that is, the source of my information leading up to the introduction of this resolution would have been very properly handled if the acting chairman of the January meeting of the County Committee had adopted the recommendation offered by Judge Gilbert and Congress Perlman that a special committee, be appointed for the purpose of investigating the information given to me; I think you will agree that it was never intended that the function of the Committee of Resolutions should cover the scope of an investigation such as this matter would require I am only too willing and ready to cooperate with you in the siting of this matter, and in order that the picture may be clear before you, permit me to recite the following history
"After the November meeting of the County Committee, when the Jesse Committee submitted a recommendation that the County Committee indorse the Grenthal Bill, and which recommendation was assailed on the floor of the County Committee by a number of members, one of whom I think was Mit Stanley Isaacs (who, I understand, represents several landlord organizations) the chairman suggested that the consideration of the Grenthal Bill he laid on the table for a future meeting, which suggestion the County Committee voted down.
Grenthal Quotes Berg.
Assemblman Grenthal repeated to me what had been told to him by Assemblman Berg of the Bronx after the close of the last session of the legislature. I did not introduce my resolution on Assemblman Grenthal's report but I had him arrange a lunchroom appointment with Assemblman Berg so that I could hear the story first hand and direct. Mr. Berg related to me the facts and circumstances upon which he based the statement that the defeat of the Grenthal Bill was due to the personal activity of the Chairman. I would also add that I arranged a second meeting with Assemblman Berg and brought with me a highly estimable citizen who heard
14-Yr. Old Girl, Gone For Month, Found With Harlem Theatre Porter
Margaret Brown, a 141, year old school girl, living at 676 St Nicholas avenue, disappeared from home on December 28 and was missing until January 29. She was found at the Cedar Theatre by Leight Sauder welfare officer of the 10th Precinct, and taken to the Police Station and questioned.
She stated that she had run away because her mother had spanked her and that during her month's absence from home she had lived part of the time with one Uncle. Who lived at 33 West 131st street Christian works as organist and porter at Franklin Theatre 132nd street and Lenox avenue. The other man she accused is Howard George 36 years old, of 26 West 16th Street George a porter at the Old Street Theatre 14th street at the 5th avenue. Both were held for imprisonment in the 12th District Magistrate Court on Monday charged with theft.

---
Mr. Berg recite in detail the various incidents. Upon this information given me, first, in the presence of Assemblyman Greathal and secondly in the presence of another witness, I felt thoroughly justified in the introduction of my resolution."
Urges Special Committee.
"This is all the information I am able to give you on the subject and I strongly urge that your Committee recommend the appointment of a Special Committee charged with the sole purpose of investigating the entire matter, or, and I think this course would be more fruitful, suggest to the County Committee that one of the Assemblymen from New York County move for the appointment of a Legislative Committee so that all records incident to a complete investigation would thus be available and which Committee could call on Assemblyman Berg to repeat what he twice told me."
The Resolutions Committee, at its meeting on Tuesday, took up the letter written by Mr. Costuma, but decided to take no action further than reporting the entire matter back to the County Republican Committee. Judge John R Davies, chairman, said afterwards that several other letters had been received from members of the Legislature the tenor of which was to deny that Koenig had worked against the Grenthal bill. He said:
As no evidence sustaining the charge was produced, we shall accordingly submit a report disappointing the County resolution in the most meeting of the Executive Committee and the County Committee on March 18."
Mr. Koenig did not attend the meeting, but was in his office in an adjoining room. Members of the committee present were Charles D Hiles, Justice Sidney C Crane, Eli Rosenberg, Miss Sarah Schuyler Butter, Charles Griffiths, Francis O'Neil and Mrs. Nellie Wilson.

Fred L. Brownlee, secretary of the American Missionary Association, after going over the plant thoroughly made the agreement with the principal and trustees over a year ago, with a provision that at the time the be made that the fund of $300,000 be raised for the erection of buildings and to help establish a permanent endowment fund for the school.
This marked the beginning of the big campaign which has just been completed through the tireless efforts o f the principal, with the assistance of Mr. Loder, the business manager for the school, and Miss Lee and Mr. Rudley, the stenographer and bookkeeper. These two young people are one and the same, needed for their uniting labo and after-hours work in assisting Mrs. Brown and Mr. Loder in this great effort
$75,000 From Galen L Stone
The campaign began January 1, 1925, with the goal set for $150,000, one half of the required amount, as this amount was required before the A M A would take the school over, the remaining $150,000 to be raised within the next five years. Mrs Brown laid her proposition earnestly before Mr. Galen I. Stone of Boston, a trustee of the school, and annual contributor of $1,500, who after careful consideration of the proposition, sent her the following telegram
Boston, Mass., January, 1925
Charlotte Hawkins Brown,
Palmer Memorial Institute,
Sedalia, N.C.
After careful reconsiderations of your problems Mrs Stone and I are willing to subscribe seven thousand dollars toward the one hundred, fifty thousand dollar fund, subject to the following condition that payment shall not be binding until the whole one hundred, fifty thousand is subscribed.
GALEN I STONE
Mr. Stone is a retired Wall Street broker and was formally a member of the Hayden Stone Company of New York City. Mr. Stone was also a very close friend of Mrs. Alice Freeman Palmer for whom the Palmer Memorial Institute is named.
Greenahoro Folka Give $25,000
With the generous gift of Mr. and Mr. Stone, the amount was cut in half, but the effort continued with the same force, and thousands of people were approached by personal appeal and through the mails. A twenty-five thousand dollar campaign was started in Greensboro among the white and colored friends of the school, to which from $1 to $1,000 was subscribed. Quite a few of the white friends pledged $500 and several as much as $1,000. Such generous gifts from our southern white friends show clearly the good feeling that the white people of the community and general locality have toward the school and the work that it is doing.
The cooled friends of the school both North and South called me nicely to the cause and this in a large measure added to the success of the campaign for in many instances people were induced to give due to the fact that the Newcomers themselves were doing all they could to help for a worthy cause for their own pleas Among the large donations were K. Land Hayes Dr. D. Strawat L. and George Mitchell W. W. Peak and Dr. M. Rivera M. many others contributed in amounts to $ 10,000 In this manner the cause was carried on throughout the New England States and portions of the other sectigs of the country, both North and South B N Duke of New York City contributed $ 7,000 and many other friends of the North contributed as high as $ 1,000
Stone Gives $16,000 More
Our many friends contributed so splendidly that on January 1, 1926, the date set for the close of the campaign, Mr. Stone was so overjoyed at the success of the effort that he consented to relieve the school of all outstanding debt, amounting to $16,000, making his gift a total of $91,000, and leaving the school free of all incumbrance for 1926. The amount given by Mr. Stone, plus the assistance of Mrs. Brown with the assistance of the trustees, plus the amounts pledged annually, the next five years, places the figure at present at $250,000.
Nearly 2,000,000 Negro children of school age never see the inside of a school house. This striking fact alone makes it easy to understand why the Negroes are highest in literacy of any racial group in the country, this at a time when restricted immigration has checked the labor supply, when trained mechanics are at such a premium that their leaders can virtually make any terms with their employers, and when the demand for high-grade domestic help, for another thing, far exceeds the supply
With more education, and with education of a sort suited to his needs, the Negro could meet many of the industrial and domestic needs of the time.
Where The School Is Located
Sedalia is a quiet rural village, consisting of forty or more families, mostly colored people. It is ten miles east of Greenboro, N. C, and 4½ miles from McLennsville, the county seat of the National Highway from Washington to Atlanta. A post office was established for the school
The school has grown from the status of one teacher, one building and 55 students, in 1901—to fifteen teachers, five buildings (main building, dormitory for girls, dormitory for boys, dining hall and kitchen, modern barn) and 225 students in 1924. The enrollment was 250, until two serious fires destroyed two of our dormitories. With these two buildings replaced the school could take care of 300 students, of whom 200 would be boarders, without increasing the overhead expense of the school's property is valued at $200,000. In addition to the buildings enumerated above, there is a holding of 305 acres, valued at $50 to $100 an acre.
The main building, dedicated to Alice Freeman Palmer, is a splendid structure, with all modern improvements.
The Course of Instruction
The course of instruction given is of a double nature. The school gives the regular course of academic instruction specified by the state from the primary grades on up through high school. It also offers a course in music, which includes instrumental, vocal and choral singing. In addition to the academic work, there is a special industrial training in daily period of an hour and half. Furthermore, all the work around the school is performed by the students. The industrial courses are in three groups: a. Agriculture; b. Home Economics; c. Manual Training
What Other People Are Saying
"Mrs Brown is a power for good not only in the Palmer Memorial Institute, but in Greensboro and community. She has been sent for on several occasions for conferences, and, in fact, she has exhibited greater ability and discretion along this line than anyone I know of.

In steering the school through these difficult years, every one of her decisions has been sagacious Prof George Herbert Palmer, Harvard University, Cambridge, Mass."
"It is fitting that we should support Mrs Charlotte Hawkins Brown and the admirable work she is doing on the Palmer Memorial Institute because Mrs Brown was educated in Cambridge, and her school is named for Alice Freeman Palmer, whose strong educational influence was exerted from Cambridge for many years. We have known Mrs Brown, the founder and promoter for many years and have greatly admired her intelligence, courage and compassion. He has acquired his white neighbors and respect of her very remarkable degree, and it is on that account, among others undergoing the best kind of service to her race. The Palmer Memorial Institute has demonstrated its serviceability, and deserves the support of all friends of effective education for the Southern Negroes. Sincerely yours, Charles W. Lint President Emmentus, Harvard University."
"I have very pleasant memories of my visit at your school. You have done a fine work, have almost 'made breaks without straw.' The whole appearance and spirit of your students and teachers as well as the physical appearance of your buildings and grounds impressed me very pleasantly, and I wish for your greatest support from the generous public North and South. You serve for that you are doing not merely for the shared care as such but for what you are doing for our future country in helping the men of different races to a clearer and more sympathetic understanding. Very truly yours. Robert R Moton Principal Lukegee Institute
Palmer Institute As It Is Today
The Institute is situated on North
Carolina State Highway number 10
about ten miles out from Greensboro.
The campus of the most beautiful
highway in the state is connecting
Durham and Greensboro and the
beautiful Alice Freeman Palmer
building with its magnificent stone
column along with the level, $1
000 house of the principal adds much
to the campus in the great highway.
The Station is rather unique and
means much toward making conditions
at Palmer more enjoyable both
of teachers and students. Very

The Child's Instincts
As doctor, parent, nurse or social worker we give much time, thought and labor to physically adjusting the child to his environment as a means of protecting him against disease. But in order that the child may be adequately capable to care for himself in adulthood it is necessary that we pay some attention to those phases of its life which eventuate in moral and spiritual values. If I may be pardoned the use of a "big word" it is urgent that we attempt to understand administer to, and direct into the proper channels of activity the psychological nature of the child.
Now you know that even the newly-born bird separated from its mother will in time make efforts to obtain food or to build a nest. The little chick will peck at a grasen of corn without having seen the mother-her do likewise. The human infant will grasp for and suckle the breast immediately after birth, certainly before it could possibly "know" that in this wise it would obtain food.
These reactions and such like them which seem to be inherent tendencies of the newlyborn, and not products of training after birth, are what I wish you to understand by my use of the word instincts or native impulses or tendencies. To properly train our children presupposes a knowledge of instincts, that is, what the child is likely to do of its own accord before it has learned by exper-
eral others, including magicians, lecturers, etc.
Student Recreations
For the amusement of the students there are frequent socials, and twice a month there are moving pictures shown in the chapel. Some of the pictures shown already are Peter Pan, The Alaskan, and The Border Legion. The students pay at the beginning of the year, a fee that admits them to all lectures and concerts, with the exception of the moving pictures, to which the small admission of five cents is taken at the door. There are also a number of student clubs and organizations that mean much toward the moral and spiritual development of its members. There are also music and debating clubs for the purpose of developing and utilizing in every way the available talent
Aside from the student affairs the teachers are organized into a club which meets every Thursday evening where all the members get together in a social way. Each teacher takes his or her turn in entertaining and the evening is largely spent in playing various games, after which a dainty repeat is served by the host. In conclusion, the faculty and students of Palmer wish to extend to all friends, both North and South, heartfelt appreciation for their loyal support in helping her to get thus far on her way Palmer further wishes to ask your prayful interest as she soars onward and upward toward heights of perfection
"Fair Palmer, the pride of each rural home.
Thus planted on soil all their own.
Where the brar and the cactus once flourishing grew.
Stands the tower of wood and of stone."
Better Babies"

ince or the teachings of the parents. For so far as the best interest of the child as an individual is concerned we must know what instincts are "good," and which "bad," in fine which responses will enable him to live harmoniously in later life as a member of the highly organized group of individuals which we call Society. We do not use his word in the "pinkie-tea" sense. We may perpetuate instincts by two methods (1) by rewards, and (2) stimulation. It is necessary however to be sure that the instinct or impulse is a good one and that we connect the reward in the child's mind with its cause. In the case of food the child makes this connection itself, for eating of the food brings the satisfaction of taste and appeased hunger. Many children seem to possess an "instinct" to build things. This should be applauded and encouraged with emphasis on what his small efforts may mean as to future possibilities in, say, the mechanical field.
It would be wrong however to attempt to perpetrate the fear of darkness or the bogey-man Neither of these are perhaps a real instinct. Even infants will share a cracker with one if invited, or a poor appetite may be increased by making the food and the table more attractive to the child's eye.
An instinct which we deemed not be able to stimulate might be eliminated by (1) associating some dissatisfaction in the child's mind with its practice or (2) by discouraging its use. Here again some caution is necessary. Make the effort no associate the dissatisfaction as a logical out-come of the instinct itself and not with yourself or the person who prohibits the tendency. Take the common street fight. If one boy is bigger than the other here is a chance to talk to him and attempt to show him what would happen to HIM, if because of his greater prowess he should injure the smaller lad. Just to jerk him away with a cauff on the ear will not produce the desired effect of showing him the unpleasant consequences of such a fight. Or, suppose your boy shows cowardice. Just to jeer at him will result in aullen hate of you. But if his reasons for fighting are those of defense, here again the sensible course is to convince HIM that to not protect his rights, person or property will prove disastrous to HIM. Compare the other fellow, for example, to a burglar, and ask the potential coward what he would do in case a burglar entered his home at night. The response may be laughable in the extreme as I have found out. Again there is the appeal patriotism, patriotic warfare for DEFENSE.
If a tendency is strongly rooted in a child disuse and dissatisfaction may not of themselves be sufficient to eliminate the undesirable. The impulse may be temporarily restrained, only to break out in greater fury later on. Here we must take recourse in other methods of elimination, such as (1) substitution and (2) sublimation. Under the first head we may mention stroking the dog's head instead of pulling its tail, "follow the leader" on an expedition of nature study instead of committing objectionable pranks, dancing for the training in beauty of bodily movements instead of sex sentiment provoking holds and movements. The second method, sublimation, means the substitution of new ideas and emotions for the undesirable one, such as fighting, not alone for oneself, but for another or fighting by the newspaper or committee or ballot

At the morning hour of worship on Sunday Rev George Shippen Stark, pastor spoke on religion as being the personal, private individual experience it is spiritual and is not experienced through the five services. The first step in being religious is a challenge to faith. We begin small in our christian experience faith is the first step. It we would know the mood of christ we should do as Christ says. Be out hearts of the word but does. The Sacrament of the Lord Supper was administered at the service.
The Bible school consecrated at the annual hour 1:15 p.m. The school is taking a line with the Easter program of the church. It is being to retreat out the uninhibited among the parents of pupils and teaching those among its pupils to make their decision to that the Easter wives witness the greatest mangering of souls in the life of the church.
The mid-week service for prayer on Wednesday evening was in memory of the Elder Cambridge Ritter. It was the prayer meeting following the Holy Sacrament of January that Elder Ritter was at the last time. His life and career in the church make this meeting on Wednesday night most fitting in men's life.
February is a short but busy month. The calendar is full. The mid-week has its program developing all the time of the church. Today, right on the British House an annual evening with Mrs. M. Styx, the whole house is to be the event for the entire season.
Next Sunday afternoon at four o'clock, Mrs. Styx will be held. An excellent program under the direction of Mrs. M. Styx will be presented.
Where To Go To Church
St. Paul Baptist Church
New York City is now snow-bound as it has not been at any time before during the present winter. Notwithstanding this, people find their way to the house of worship. Wednesday night, while the storm was at its worst treacher David Doughty was down to the church to see that things kept moving in the B. Y. P. U. Group No. 2, led by that indefatigable worker, Jamie Anderson, was out, and fed the meeting, then gliding a short, but spicy program, the meeting was closed. Friday night Deacon Ware was on hand, having appointed Mrs Sarah Clarkson as leader for the evening, she gave a most helpful exposition on the 4th chapter of James, using as theme. "Humility."
Sunday morning early, Deacon J A Doughtry had out his Prayer Band, preparing for their service in the afternoon, as well as getting the church spiritually warm for the regular services. The pastor, after a mast strenuous week of attending conferences, presiding over meetings, preaching funerals, and making calls on the sick, came to his pulpit Sunday morning, and preached a sermon that stirred all present on. "The Touch That Saves." In the afternoon he went over to Brooklyn, and preached in the Mt. Lebanon Church for Dr Hamlin his theme being, "The Necessity of Christa' Sufferings." "Coming back to his pulpit in the evening, he preached another great sermon on, "Keeping The unity of the Spirit in Peace." This sermon seemed to grip the audience as but few sermons do. The Choir rendered splendid services at both morning and evening services. In the afternoon Rev John Joseph Pastor of the New York Tabernacle Church preached a very good sermon under auspices of the Prayer Band.
The sad news reached us during the week of the death of Mrs Logan who having gone to Richmond to the funeral of her sister, was while returning from the cemetery, killed in an accident which so injured her brother and sister, that both were taken to the hospital and just at the time of the writing of these notes, the news came that the Friar had also died from his injury. The family has held the Church's Sister Hare Nible, one of the most faithful workers of the Church is now in Memorial Hospital, wather she went a week ago Sunday, and though it has not yet been determined when she shall return home, as getting along nicely

under the skillful treatment of the doctors and nurses of that institution.
The storm spoiled our pleasure of going to the Day Star Church on Thursday night. Dr. R. J. Brown, the pastor was called over the phone, and, in view of the difficulty of traveling, suggested that the service be put off to some other time. "It was too late to inform all the Choir people, who has prepared to be there, and hence, we learned that several of them were present, while the Pastor was absent. We regret this, but certainly appreciate the loyalty of these people.

Sunday was an ideal day to Church poets. At 11 a.m. in a large crowd gathered with us to worship. After many pleasing selections by the poor pastor Dr G H Sons delivered a very interesting and timely message Subject "Aide with the Lord."
At 2 p.m. in the children assembled in the Sunday School room to study the lesson. The lesson was reviewed by the superintendent W H Johnson. Then followed an announcement by the pastor that the school of Reigion Education will open Wednesday at 3:15 p.m at the church. The young people were encouraged to attend.
The program in the B A P U was in charge of the Juniors. They are busy getting read for their lunch day celebration. The missionary wakes of the church are planning to feed the old people of the community that evening Rev John Robinson will be the speaker
The closing message for the day was delivered by the assistant Pastor Rev Huston Crutchfield. He spoke on the life of Moses. The message was heartily received. Offering amounted to $281.72

the inherited tendencies to do wrong. Under God, if men really desire to live right, they may do so. The Lord offers to change the character and transform the disposition of men. He declares he will give to men a new heart and cause them to walk in all his commandments, and keep them from falling into sin. "I know that many doubt the possibility of living to-day in a world like this without doing one single thing that is wrong. Now let me say this. If the gospel of Jesus Christ provides no deliverance of a man from every known and deliberate sin, then that gospel is a miserable and stupendous failure. In heathen lands, the benighted opium trend and rover pirate, and the sunken iniquity and vice, are delivered and changed into gentle loving Christians. Surely, if God can do that much for the idol worshipper, he can give you and me the victory over a bad temper, a deceitful heart, an evil tongue, and an impure mind.
The morning lesson was very helpful to the worshippers. After the benediction, the more devout ones went immediately to a season of prayer which lasted about an hour. An afflicted sister requested prayer that she might be healed. She was instantly restored and went forth rejoicing.

Sunday night Pastor Stracian "choose for us the theme" God's Rule and Pillumline in the Judgement." Among other things the speaker said, Viewing it from one angle, it might seem altogether uncalled for and unnecessary for God to have a judgement to determine the character of all his creatures. Since it is admitted that God knows everything before hand, the question naturally arises, who have the investigative judgement to determine what is already known. Well, what God knows other creatures do not know. And it is certain that the judgement will leave no longering doubt in any creatures mind that possible mistakes have been made. James, the high bishop of the apostolic church reveal God's standard God's Pillumline's rule by which he measures men arranged before the bar of eternal justice. So say, and so do, says the apostle as they that shall be judged by the unchangeable law.
All created beings are answerable to the divine law Wesley says, the law of God is not the arbitrary utterance of an inconsiderate ruler, but it is the wise and beneficent requirement of an Everlasting Father. And that man is blessed in his deeds at he keeps them. In civic life, the one who disregards the law defies the government under which he lives. So in the judgement, God reckons all disobedience as threatening the very existence of His throne. He stamps the deliberate offender as a rebel and an adversary. Only the obedient are counted as being the friends of God (Judg. 15 14, 10 14 21)
Next Sunday pastor Stratham is stated to speak at Sharon on Saxs't first Street three o'clock, and at St Marks M. E. Church four fifteen, and at the Second Church at five thirty and again at night.

But selflesser and encouraging as this is, it is but an imperfect measure of Dr. Washington's work and achievement.

spiritual man. His declaration shows that he who knew the nature of the spiritual man understood his functionings, and the power that made for growth and development. He declared that the growth and development came to the spiritual man by the man just putting toth the thought that became a desire, with an urge in it, similar to that of a hungry and thirsty person. This righteous urge releases an automatic, self-fishing, right action machine from the power house of our Father. God's eternal place of love and goodness, and according to the capacity of the hungry and thirsty man or woman they are still. Does not this statement also suggest that to mentally hunger and thirst for art education, social betrayment and a true and higher expression of good citizenship is within the power of each and all who doth hunger and thirst after righteousness. We can have a right acting mind, a righteous social life, a righteous home.
rightious community, city, state, nation and world, it each and all the people could have brought before their minds the truth and power in the words of our text. Blessed are they which hunger and torment after righteousness, for they shall be tailed. Thus righteous indeed life, makes manifest the perfect man, therefore it should be the earnest and determined effort of those who claim it to be disciples of our Lord Jesus the lambman; to get the spirit to will and to do as He has commanded. For He says, Be ye therefore perfect, even as perfect. That which is in Heaven is perfect. That possible in the person who is filled is the person. The Sunday school was opened at 2 p.m. by the assistant superintendent, W. H. Coleman. A short review of the lesson was given by him.
At the opening service the Rev J Harvey Anderson of Patterson, N.J. preached Dr. Anderson is a former editor of the Star of Zion. He was introduced by Rev Bodden Dr. Andersons text was "His dwelling shall be on night, and the place of his defense the mumition of rocks. Bread shall be given him, and his water shall be sure" Isaiah M 10. Dinner is served during the day by the memorials of the Welling Workers. On July 12, February 12, a splendid program will be given at the church by coming men of the Y M C A. under the direction of Henry C Parker.
St. James Pres. Church
Despite the terrible condition of the streets, at 11 o'clock, Sunday morning, St James Presbyterian Church was well filled with wishspirits, eager to heap and witness the entire services. The churor was in out of Miss Eloise Uggams, the leading soprano, who has been absent on account of illness, was at her usual place and seemingly sung her solo with an unusual sweetness and melody. Mr Ragland at Pitt-burg rendered the solo just preceding the sermon. Dr Ims sermonette to the children was taken from the book of Judges, the parable of "The Fires Talking" told in two parts. He cited part 1 in choice, beautiful, yet simple English Part 2 will be continued next Sunday.
The sermon from Proverbs 4:18 was indeed a masterpiece. His theme was "The Significance or Christian Bongraphy." He dealt at length with the supreme worth of the lives of the truly great men and women and not with those who are accounted great by worldly standards. "We have," said he infinitely more self respect and truthfulness too when he honor Benjamin Banneker more than George Washington and Noamer. A glowing tribute was paid to Frederick Douglass. At 4 o'clock the Forum held a virtual meeting. An inter-tribal and social program was presented. The topic What are the Saturdays and Laturies doing in Harlem for Educational advancement, was ably discussed by Mass F. Lane, Messys Ralph F. Muzel, Beane and others. Robert Douglass gave a reading from Dearbair Mumby by Miss Bailey and Mr. Simmons.
At 8 p.m. in the Young People's Communion was the initiation of Christian Endeavor Week and a large number both of Emancipation and of young people as communant members were present. The pastoral address on the text in the Days of His Youth dealt with the Christian outlook to youth and the unparalleled opportunities of this day. Five persons united with the church
The Brotherhood under Mr. Green, held two interesting meetings Monday and Wednesday nights.
Friday night, the N. Chapter of John Brown Memorial Association welcomed the public to Lincoln's Birthday meeting. Dr. J. Max Barber was the orator for the occasion.

the splendid address is given in another section of The Age Upon the conclusion, of the talk, Matthew Keith, formerly of Georgetown, S. C., joined the church by letter from his former church He is now residing at 20 St Felix street In the afternoon there was annually large attendance at the Sunday school session The superintendent, John D. Nixon, presided The school was regraded, and progressive new methods were inaugurated A campaign is on to build up the school in membership. At the vesper hour the Allen League met. O. C. Bascomb, vice-president, presided. Miss E. Wesley read an interesting paper on the topic
At the evening hour the pastor, Dr. Tyler, filled the pulpit "The Value of the Soul" was the subject of his discourse. The text was St Matthew 16:20. He said among other things: "There are three selves in the human being. The material self the social self and the spiritual self. One must suffer for the advancement of the others. Jesus does not desire us to neglect the developing of the material or social self, but he does desire that we put our spiritual self. If we conceive our endeavors on the development of either the material or social self we will lose our soul. This is the most important part of man for it is immortal. The man or woman that seeks to hold us back from that discipline that we must pass through in order to make us perfect is not a help but a hindrance. We must enter into a spirit of negation, if we hope to attain the spiritual ideal. We must realize that God has given us desire or will power and it is up to us to determine which self shall rule.
The pastor and congregation were invited to attend a special service at St. John's A M E Church in the afternoon. Dr Teller was unable to be present and the Rev Mr Warner, who is connected with the church preached in his stead. Henry Watkins pastor's steward was delegate to take a donation of $16. This was augmented by $6 more in the evening.
A feature of the evening services during the pre Easter services is the evangelical singing by the choir. Dean Kelly Miller will be the attraction at the church at both services Sunday March 7. This is in keeping with the policy of the pastor and the officers of the church to present outstanding men and women of our group to the members and trends of the Sunday morning service was the splendid rendition of the anthem, "O Thou God of My Salvation" by the junior choir under the direction of Mrs Adalah Taylor. The young people displaced excellent conception of temporal qualities and exorcism.
The ladies of Willing Workers on which Matt Hattie Martin is president, served dinner in the church house. The pastor will preach at both services next Sunday. In the meeting his topic will be, "Otherwise Engaged. At the evening hour it will be." At the Post of Duty.

Crelin and Harris Not Worried Over Harrisburg's Decision Not To Give Up Eastern Colored League Franchise
LTHOUGH some of the other teams are wondering what the Newark Stars are going to do for ball players now that Harrisburg has decided to remain in the Eastern Colored league, Walbur Creel, owner, and Andrew Harris, manager of the Newark team, do not seem to be worried. Harris is especially optimistic over his team's prospects for a successful season.
He says the Newark Stars never proposed to buy the entire Harrisburg team but just some of the players. He has already signed up several very good then, he says, and expects to be able to announce the full lineup when his representatives return from Cuba and Porto Rico.
Harris is probably the youngest manager to ever have charge of a colored professional ball club. He is not yet 27 years old, but has been playing ball since 1907. In that year he was third baseman for the original Hildale team and, with Otto Briggs, did much to make the team popular in Philadelphia.
After a couple of seasons he joined the U.S. Navy and when his term expired he came to New York as a member of the Pennsylvania Red Caps. For the past few years Harris has been the mainstay and manager of the Red Caps. He was, in addition, the only colored representative on the Board of Directors of the Associated Baseball Cubs, an organization made up of some of the leading semi-professional clubs of Greater New York. He is popular with his players and has a large number of friends among the fans all of whom are wishing him success in his new position.
When Iugene Q. Neal first presented his master play, *The Imperator Jones*, about five years ago, short sighted and super sensitive Negro critics denounced the drama as a burlesque of the lower type of members of their race. They did not like the theme and were not to tell the world so until someone suggested that it was a psychological study of tear and was not meant to degrade a particular individual or race.
Those same critics are making the same claim of *Lulu Belle*, which opened to an indefinite run at the Relaxation Theatre on Tuesday evening. February 9. While we do not contend that *Lulu Belle* is the same kind of show, the *Imperator Jones* is believed that the authors intended to tell the old story of the same man and since it had been written much for other racial types, they turned to the Negro with the idea of making the story a bit difficult.
The most just criticism of the play is that instead of using a complete Negro cast, Mr. Belasco put white actors in the principal roles. Since the Negro press was not favored with invitations to the opening performance a review of the play is here with presented, written by Alexander Woodford, New York's premier critic for the New York World.

Somewhere in the stored away annals of opinion of the Deacon Johnson Column, musician's have been rated as fourth class business men. The forceful 'laws of commercial science that demand exactness of decision, steadiness in quest of a gain, integrity, self denial and rigid spartanlike determination in grappling for and holding the realization of an ideal is a negative quantity in the sphere of fiddling and singing. The musician, as a popular practitioner, is a short visioned, slovenly character, who lives in rigid and accurate swing of the old Greek slogan "Eat, drink and be merry, for to-morrow we all may die." They sip, drink and pay the price of today without a phantom or fantasy of what the cruel taskmaster of the future holds in waiting.
Music as an art field holds forth many fair and gleaming lights who lift their heads in pride and shed their rays of honor and glory, with credit to the race, throughout the world. As to artistic accomplishment, there is much of which we as a group may boast. But where is our management, and where is our management, and who is contributing toward the building of the kind of musical government that will keep the art and the artist going on and on at a recompense that will prove worth the artist's study, time and professional struggles?
But first we must know and provide, that the practitioner and the musical contingent at large be schooled in the needs and values of musical management and through virtue of this need he must be made to feel the desire to share in making musical management the ground work of his musical ambitions. We must have men whose souls live within the field of music whose desires ambitions and dreams are for perfecting the art, for the very first requirement in any stable government is a satisfied citizenship.
The Deacon Johngott's Musicians Exchange urges the young and the old to swing into line and test out oneself for creating, stabilizing and forging into actually the best that is within him. Standardization and specialization are the keystone of the intellectual world today and the musical leader, like the leader of all other professions must be made to know values and the necessity of efficiency, laws and government. For no matter what the line of endeavor people must be educated to recognize the value of a law before they can appreciate the necessity of its enforcement.
It is time that we give thought to our future and to the permanency of our present welfare. It is time that we look a few inches beyond our noses and concentrate upon the manning of our own interests that the white man now mans for us. It is time that we cease to be bargained as a commodity. It is time that the Negro provides the monopolys, at least, on the "Blues."
It is time that the fellow artist can find publishers within the group, for his classes, as well as his popular songs. It is time that Harlem, with its meridian musical channels, has a solvent musical management corporation where all musicians can know and feel the common interests. We of our prominent Senators said in a discussion of the affairs of the nation. We are living over a life solicitor that is liable to burst into flames at an time. It is time that we stop quarreling and warring for unjust per cent salaries. For the safety of the profession is of more importance that technical quibbling. Yes, it is time that we stop squandering time.
Chick Suggs Defeats Goldstein In Madison Square Garden Debut
Chris Suggie. New Bedford, Mass.
The New England bantweight champion
made his debut at the New Madison
Spain Garden Friday night. Ternary
is defeating the Goldstein former
bantweight champion of the world in
one of the star bout at the evening
Suggie had been rated No. 1 among bant
ham by Tex Rickard in his annual
ranking of busters and a capacity crowd
turned up to see him in action.
Goldstein has trained tautly for
the bout and bowed some championship
trains in the ear, rounds but was a
waste a mark of Suggie's surprising let
Suggie kept tabling away until Aire was
dazed.
By the seventh round the New England
banther had picked up a big lead in
pound but the occasionally got in a cold
punch. In the ninth and sixth rounds he
let the crosses go which landed square
to thick chin but Suggie absorbed
the stout wabbling. For every right
cross that Goldstein landed Suggie
browsed hard a dozen left ears and right
to the body.
The colored tighter laced up to the ex-
piration of the tany although he scor-
ed a potent compulsion the former
champion. When the judges decision
was awarded him no one complained.

Chick Suggs Battled Blizzard All Night To Keep Garden Date
When Chick Suggs, the New England bantamweight champion, called at Tex Rickard's office Sunday to collect his share of the guarantees or fighting Abe Goldstein the previous Friday night, he told an interesting story of the exciting time he had in keeping his appointment for the fight. His story as told to Rickard was as follows:
Fighting The Storm
"You know I live in New Bedford up there in New England," said the boxer. "Well, I started to get out of that town on Thursday and I ran right into that awful billboard. There weren't any trains running out of New Bedford and the busses were all tied up, too. I made up my mind I'd make New York if I had to walk. I found a taxicab driver who offered to drive me to Providence for $55. I figured that I could get a train from there. We pulled out of New Bedford at 7 p.m. When we were seventeen miles from Providence we bounced into a snow drift and got stuck. We couldn't get the cab out and at 11 o'clock that night I started to walk to the nearest farmhouse in order to get a telephone. I walked about four miles with the snow just about up to my waist most of the tune.
Soaked and Nearly Frozen
"I got to an old powerhouse about 2 o'clock in the morning, nearly frozen and all in. I was soaked to the skin. That powerhouse was near Warren, R. I, where I found a telephone. I called up Providence about 3 a.m. and was lucky enough to get a taxabill to come out and pick me up. We reached Providence at 8 o'clock in the morning. It took us close to five hourse to drive eleven miles. Then I sat in the Providence railroad station until 9:30 o'clock for a train. We reached New York at 340 o'clock on the afternoon of the fight. I was supposed to weigh in at the offices of the Boxing Commission at 2 o'clock that afternoon.
"I dashed into another taxicab and drove to the Platton Building and had left. They came back later, but it wasn't until 5 o'clock in the afternoon that they put me on the scales and I weighed 118.4 pounds. I had something to eat at 5:30 o'clock and had a hot bath and an alcohol rub. Then I reported at Madison Square Garden at 7:30 o'clock. I hadn't had a wink of sleep since Wednesday night, and I can tell you I was a pretty tired boy. If some of the New York fans were disappointed in the way I boxed they might take into consideration the difficulties I had in getting here through that storm. I wish I could have done better, but under the circumstances I did the best I could."
At The Renaissance
Two big spectacles are scheduled for presentation at the Renaissance Theatre shortly James M Barne's, "Kiss For Cinderella" will be the holiday picture there on Washington's Birthday February 22 and on Sunday, February 21. This is one of the big Broadway pictures that is as interest ing to the gren ups as it is to the young.
The other big scheduled picture is Pantomom of the Opera. This superduous screening will be presented at the Renaissance Theatre beginning Saturday March 6. In this picture Lon Chanes is said to appear in his best role.
"The Midshipman with Ramon Navarro will be the feature photo Thursday and Friday February 11 12. This is a picture produced at Annapolis and is not only spectacular but is a love drama as well that will interest all.
Saturday, Sunday and Monday, February 13, 14 and 15, Dola Negrean in *Woman of the World* will be the attraction. In this picture the famous star appears in her first real American role. Produced in a small town with all the beauty of a small town background in *Women of the World* a masterful satire of American media. It is a wonderful picture and should attract a full house at each program.
At The New Douglass
Flight with a cousin Penella Dean will be to another big hit with local screen tans when The Danger Girl! her latest picture will be seen at the New Douglas Theater. Miss Dean in the delightful mysteries, photoplas, is first seen as a brave who travels over house tops at night and finds refuge in the apartment of two bachelor brethers, one of whom, of course falls in love with her.
From the start, the a team pro-
ceeds steadily in a seasonal finish.
The team deal with the plottings of
a band of thieves to steal a fortune
in gems and while for a time it would
seem that Marie Dupreuse the char-
acter portrayed by Miss Dean was in
league with the robbers the finale re-
veals a contrast state of affairs. At
any rate the picture is filled with
thrillers that are war apted to hold the
interest in the most place on the

Morehouse Wins City Championship When Clark 5 Is Defeated
Atlanta, Ga., -Morehouse clinched the city championship on January 30, by downing Clark by the close score of 19 18. The game was hard fought from start to finish the thrilling plays of both teams repeatedly bringing cheers from the spectators - Clark led at the half 7-5. The maroon quintet came back with a rush in the second half and soon piled up a lead that the Clark basketeers were unable to overcome in the remaining minutes of play.
Beck, Johnson, and Dalton were the mainstays in the Clark defense, while Traylor, Sykes and Captain Bailey starred for the Maroon tide Traylor was the backbone of the Morehouse scoring machinery, making 12 of the 18-points. Another feature of the Morehouse defense was the fast dribbling and close guarding of Archer.
Beck and Johnson of Clark in a fast frantic effort to overcome the Maroon lead sank baskets from critical angles.

Dempsey No Champion
By JACK CONWAY
In the N. Y. Daily Mirror
The Boxing Commission has spent much time and squandered thousands of words in a fruitless effort to force Jack Dempsey to defend the heavyweight title against Harry Wills, the man the whose world acknowledges to be the logical contender. Nothing has come of it and nothing ever will Dempsey does not mean to fight Wills. Even the kids in the primary class and the inmates of old ladies' homes know that. He has proved it in a hundred ways, and there no longer is any doubt about the matter, although he refuses to admit the fact in so many words Dempsey lacks the physical courage to meet the giant colored man in the ring and he lacks the moral courage to admit that he will not fight.
The New York Boxing Commission has placed Dempsey on what is calls its ineligible list. That means, that the champion cannot get a license to box in this State until he accepts the challenge of his colored rival. All boxers and promoters are forbidden to have any dealings with Dempsey, on pain of suspension, until he meets the man the commission has designated as his opponent.
There the matter rests. The Commission holds that it can do no more. In the meantime, Dempsey goes on his way, gathering in thousands of dollars from stage work and motion pictures all because, in their, he is

BY JAMES H. HOGANS
A Pollman Porter's Opinion of Roland Hayes
SOME circumstances of recent of mine, a fellow worker, came to see me on a willful occasion of business. During the visit our talk drifted to Roland Hayes, the Negro singer, with whom my friend is very much enamored. In fact, to use the vernacular of the street he fairly 'naves' about the singing ability and other attributes of Mr. Hayes. He informed me then that he was laying off from his job in order that he might attend Mr. Hayes' hospital at Cargnege Hall last evening.
Being so impressed with his praise and idea of this artist, and with wanting to present some novel of a sort different from that usually contained in this column, I invited him to write for me an article on Roland Hayes as soon though the eyes of a Pollman porter.
This porter, I well known in the New York District, but for personal reasons desires that his work be omitted. Therefore, simply for an appellation, I shall call him Henry John Doe. His letter and article follow:
THE LETTER
DEAR MR. HOGANS:
Following our conversation of a few days ago, in which I promised you that I would write for your column an article on my impressions of Roland Hayes, I am afraid that I have essayed to do something for which I am not quite fitted—that is not literally fitted. It is easy, enough for me to relate in an aerial way how Mr. Hayes impresses me, but to put those impressions in a form that will make them acceptable for your column in The Age is another thing. Trusting, however, that your readers will give attention to the thought contained herein, and not the phrasiology, I shall endeavor to relate how this Negro genius impresses me."
Following our conversation of the day that I would write for your column, Hayes, I am afraid that I have not quite fitted—that is not literal relate in an oral way how Mr. Hayes sions in a form that will make them another thing. Trusting, however to the thought contained herein, and to relate how this Negro genius imit

"It is, of course, a well known fact, generally conceded by all American music lovers, that Roland Hayes is a great singer—the greatest, without doubt, that the Negro race has ever produced. Especially are his achievements in the realm of song a source of pride to Americans of color. But I wonder how many of these Americans think of him in the light of a race builder. I dare say the number is limited.
"Most of our people give attention to the quality of his art. Those of us who attend his recitals know that he draws capacity audiences; know that he charms these audiences with his singing; but the reaction of this ability upon his listeners in the matter of racial up-building is something which I seriously doubt is being taken into account by members of the Negro race in their appraisal of this Negro singer's genius.
"As a builder of racial estimation, in my humble opinion, Mr Hayes is the third greatest exponent of Negro achievement in the history of American Negroes. To me, Frederick Douglas and the lamented Booker Washington are the only two Americans of color who are entitled to be placed ahead of him. Whether one agrees or not with this placement, there is this certain fact: He is the most outstanding example of Negro progress and ability we have among us today."
"In terming Mr. Hayes a race builder, I do not mean to imply that his contribution to the progress of our race is greater or more substantial than the contribution that is now being rendered by many of our teachers and leaders; for should I say that, I would be in eper. Our teachers and leaders build along one line; Mr Hayes, another. He builds by creating sentiment. And this sentiment towards the race is effected through his singing.
"Now, just what I mean by creating racial sentiment is this. To bring about a condition in which one race will get a better perspective and understanding of another Roland Hayes helps to do this, in this country, at least, between the whites and the blacks. And it works in this manner.
Wherever and whenever Mr Hayes is advertised to sing, the audience, as a rule, is composed mostly of the better class of whites. The impression that he makes on these people is not only helpful to him but it helps the racial group to which he' longs; for it demonstrates the falsity of the cry of the white demagogue that a Negro can go so far and no further in the scheme of things.
"A good illustration of how he impresses some of his white auditors occurred at all of his recitals at which I was present. A refined and dignified white woman occupied a seat next to the one in which I sat. When Mr Hayes began to sing, she apparently, seemed unconcerned. Simply adjusted her lorgnette so as to get a better view of the singer. On completion of the song, she turned to me and said, 'The singer has done more than merely sing he has poured out the heart throbs of a people'
"Another time I sat next to a man of German descent, who, when Mr Hayes rendered one of his German selection, asked me if I spoke German I answered him in the negative 'Well,' said he, 'Hi-German is perfect. He is a wonderful singer'
"His recital on the night of January 27 brought out the regular full attendance of music lovers, and the expressions of 'great' and 'wonderful, which I have grown accustomed to hear whenever I am one of his auditors, were exclaimed profusely after the rendition of each song
"Maybe I am somewhat sophisticated in my evaluation of this man as a racial builder, but a character that can move people, irrespective of race, to heights of rapture and peaks of admiration, must through this ability, world in some way a potent influence for the good of the race to which he belongs."
