Dr. Cheney Loses Second Cause in Fight with Mrs. Douglas First Race Middleweight Champ! --- Tiger Flowers Wins Middleweight Boxing Championship From Harry Greb 18,000 Fans Witness Fight at New Madison Square Garden; New Champion Is First of Race to Become Title Holder In The Middleweight Division; Greb Used Foul Tactics The fears of New York's Nordic boxing commission have been realized. When Tiger Flowers challenged Harry Greb several months ago for the middleweight title, the New York State Boxing Commission at first accepted the challenge but upon hearing of Greb's poor physical condition reversed themselves and attempted to force Flowers to meet another boxer. But at a time public sentiment was all Flowers, due largely to the fact that he had just been robbed of a decision in a fight with Mike, Mr. Tiger. For that reason the arrangements on the Greb-Flowers fight went on and in Friday night, February 26, were 18,000 fans at Madison Square Garden to witness the contest. When the tenuous furious rounds had ended the judges awarded the decision to Tiger Flowers and with it the title, middleweight champion of the world. Paid admission to the middleweight championship battle between Harry Greb and Tiger Flowers at Madison . Greb Used Foul Tactics. I predicted in this paper some time ago that Greb was in poor physical condition and was unable to withstand the onslaughts of the Georgia Tiger. In desperation the new exam champion used every loud blow known to ring bells to stave off the inevitable defeat. He used his head as a pattern ram in the climbs and several rocks in the fingers. Flowers' in addition to that he was on an iron chain in both hands, as if he were a much as the flowers of host the war for life.

Headen Building First Auto Factory Owned By Negroes Albany, Ga.-Construction of what is believed to be the only automobile assembly plant in the world owned and operated solely by Negroes has been definitely started, the lumber is on the ground, and the work of building is in progress, according to information from an authoritative source given here. L. A. Headen, head of the concern, is now in possession of a tract of land on the Dawson road near this city, property formerly owned by Tom O'Connor. There is already a building on the place built a few years ago by the Georgia Pimento Company. Headen states that this building is added to and that as soon as the addition is completed the work assembling the Headen automobile will begin. He expects to be running in a little over a month. Headen is the inventor of a four-cylinder motor, the first car containing his motor coming into existence more than six years ago. He built several cars at a plant in Chicago, but seeing, he declares, that the South is the place for the Negro and the one place in the world where the Negro has the fullest opportunities to grow, to develop and to expand, he came to Georgia to try to build a plant for the manufacture of his automobile.

Costuma Defies Action By Republican County Committee Which Would Bar Him From Continued Activity as a Member Special Meeting Called By Secretary Schmelzel To Consider Resolution Offered By Woodward of 23rd A.D., But Action Finally Taken Amounts Only'To Mildest Sort of Censure The muchly advertised meeting of the New York County Republican Committee for the purpose of taking action on the charges made by David B. Costuma, committeeman from the 19th A. D., that County Chairman Samuel S. Koenig had brought about the defeat of the Grenthal Rent Bill, although the Bill was approved by the County Committee, proved to be rather tame. Poughkeepsie, N.Y. — A fight has been started here to save a bill introduced in the State Legislature to prevent the marriage of white and colored people. The center of the storm, which has aroused the entire community, was the marriage about five months ago in New York City of Sarah Ziegler to Charles Smith, a colored man. The daughter of Calvin Ziegler, a prosperous brick manufacturer, and is said to have been only sixteen years old at the time of her marriage. She has since left her husband and until last week had been living at the home of Judge Thomas Aldridge or Dutchess Junction, N.Y. Her father complained to the authorities that she possessed a revolver without a permit, and when two deputy sheriffs were sent to investigate the alleged her guardian, Judge Avery, turned the revolver a clenched knife, then that woman was found, the young woman was placed under arrest on a charge of having possessed a gun without a license. --- An inquiry of the Rev. Floarda Howard, year of N. Judges P. E. Mission, of West 99th street, New York City, who performed the marriage ceremonies brought out the information that the marriage license was granted at City Hall. On the certificate the girl gave her race as colored and her age as 20 years. Her husband stated he was 24 years of age and was born in Mexico one of his parents being colored. Rev. Howard stated that the girl looked to be more than sixteen and although she was fair, he made no objection to performing the ceremony because of the way the marriage certificate was made out. Had a Gun and Is Held By Judge In $500 Bail Archee Cox, 2520 Seventh avenue was arranged in the Morrisiana Court Friday charged with having a gun in his possession. A police officer told Magistrate McQuade that he had been informed that Cox was lurking about the premises at 165th street and Brook avenue, and that he had a gun. Detective Michael Cox at 185th Street Third avenue. When he was questioned about the gun, a 3-calibre, loaded, he said he had bought it in Philadelphia and paid $24 for it. Cox pleaded not guilty and was held in $500 bail for Special Sessions Woman Charged With Selling Opium Held Mrs. Hattie Culpe, who lives at 64 West 32nd Street was arranged on Washing Heights for Thursday charged with selling, selling, ourn When arrested, the detective said, she had a large amount of narcotics in her possession. It was brought out that a number of women are doing a big business in the colored neighborhoods of Harlem by selling opium and heroin. It was expected that the meeting would be featured by fireworks, as advance statements had it that Mr. Costuma would be expelled from committee membership, or at least severely censured. But neither of these things happened. The committee had happened that the committee adopted a resolution which declared the Costuma Charges as false and raised a question of Mr. Costuma's good faith. The resolution, which was offered by Frank J. Collegan Jr. of the 15th A.D., was accepted by Colin H. Woodward of the 23rd A.D., as a substitute for the resolution he had previously introduced calling for the suspending Costuma from committee until it had apologized to Chairman Koenig. The resolution is as follows. The Resolution. "Resolved. That, having carefully considered the accusations made by David B. Costuma against the Chairman of this committee and the evidence upon which he made them, we condemn the charges as so absolutely groundless as to raise a question of Mr Costuma's good faith in making them. Other Mr Koenig nor Mr. Costuma was present, the latter being represented by Sidney Lewis of his district Mr Koenig, who refrained from any expression of his views, declined to call the meeting, which was called by Clarence Schemelzel, Secretary, at the request of Mr Woodward and other members, as provided by the rules. As Mr Costuma had said publicly that he would not apologize to Mr Koenig, adoption of the Woodward resolution would have been ineffective from the Executive Committee. Opposition developed at once to this resolution. Proposed Action Illegal. Some district leaders expressed the view that the action proposed by Mr. Woodward, under the Executive Committee's rule requiring ratification of the election of its members by the committee itself, was of doubtful legality. Other speakers opposed the expulsion of Mr. Costuma on the ground that it would widen the breach in the party and still further lessen the Republican vote in New York County. One leader warned the committee that with a Governor and United States Senator to be elected this Fall, the Republican Party in New York County could not afford to cause further antagonisms but should use every effort to hold the Democratic vote in New York to a regulation that would obeys by a regulation the plurality up-State. The expulsion of Mr. Costuma, this leader added, was no way to increase the Republican vote here. Could Not Override Election. Others contended that the Executive Committee had no right to override the election of Mr. Costuma by the Republicans of this section of Havem, and declared that expulsion might jeopardize the re-election of the three Republican Assemblymen from New York and the public from New York. The Senate Counsel and Neilson Still another argument against the proposed expulsion was that it might make a "matter" of Mr. Costuma and promote stories of Republican factional differences in the public press. The foregoing resolution was adopted by a large majority. Of those who voted against it, Mr. Lawnis did so because he was opposed to any resolution of censure, however mild. Others who voted in the negative explained that the resolution unnecessary because of the exoneration of Mr. Koenig by the County Committee. When notified by Secretary Schmelzel of the proposed special meeting of the Executive Committee to act on the Woodward resolution. Mr. Oatman gave out a statement in which he reviewed the situation and made a statement that Woodward had been a failure in his role, and so far, in securing party representation from his district, the 2nd, is concerned, and said, he had not been able to hold even a single delegate, other than himself, in line to support the Koenig policies. Said Mr. Costuma: Woodward must have the apologizing habit. He has been apologizing to the people of his district for a long while for his failure to show any political ability as a district leader other than to grab soft jobs for himself. It would have elected a Republican Alderman if it was Koeing, as a stakeholder Woodward and others had not gregorwandered an Aldermanic District against me so as to prevent a colored man from my district being elected. The colored people of my district are entitled to recognition and representation and so far as I can, I mean to see that they get it. A. Scotch Verdict. The Scotch verdict rendered by the Committee on Resolutions means nothing, to me nor does it mean anything to the public generally. I welcome the adoption of this resolution. It will be quite, in line with the statics pursued by Mr. Koenig at the East County Committee meeting, advised undoubtedly by that great parliamentarian, Mr. Woodward, when Mr. Koenig claiming to act under some section of the Election Law which, no one, not even Woodward, has discovered, ordered his friends on the Executive Committee to vote absent and non-existent members of the County Committee by casting the total number of votes resenting the total number of delegates to which each candidate was entitled and refusing to toll the vote of any district with the vote was challenged by a member. If Mr. Koenig was so sure of his ground and so sure of his votes, why did he refuse to have the County Committee polled just as it was when he was elected chairman of the County Committee "Let me ask Mr. Koenig what he has done to date to help the Grenhal Bill's passage in the Legislature this year. He probably remembers that the Jesse Committee voluntarily endorsed the Grenhal Bill in a report presented to the County Committee last November and that in spite of his effort to prevent action on that part of the Jesse report, the County Committee ran out of time and endorsed the Grenhal Bill. The Grenhal Bill will probably be up for final passage. Assembly tomorrow and will then pass on for consideration in the Senate" "I call on Mr. Koenig, in accordance with the definite attitude of the County Committee, to appear in Albany and urge the Republican leaders in he Senate to put through this bill as a city measure and in the interest of the enonment house dwellers of this City." Civil Service Chances Offered To New Yorkers March 5 was the last day for filing application for the U. S. Civil Service examination at the Custom House, New York City, for stenographer and typist. Another examination of the same kind will be held shortly. Among the more than two hundred persons certified for appointment in the city service, about fifty names were certified for the position of stenographer-typist. This is one of the most called for positions in the gift of the city service and the residents of Harlem should avail themselves of every opportunity of getting into this service. The Municipal Civil Service Commission has set requirements for the temporary clerk examination which is to take place in the near future. This is also a very popular examination. The temporary position pays at the rate of $3 per day, and it usually is the stepping stone for something bigger and more permanent in the civil service. The City Service also set requirements for the male stenographer (typist) examination which will be held shortly. This test is for men only and is Grade 3. A very good position in the Service. The next post office examination for clerks will be held March 20. This examination is being held the third Saturday in each month.

C.-Secretary of State Kellogg's appointment of a white man as United States Charge de Affaires to Liberia, the Negro Republic, has arraised the fire of Negro Republican politicians. State Department officials have been kept busy explaining why Clifton R. Wharton, second in charge of the American Legation at Monrovia, was not promoted when Minister S. P. Hood started for Washington on sick leave. The race maintain that the legation in Liberia has always been headed by a Negro, and since it is the only position of its kind from which a Negro is not barred by State Department precedent a white man should not be sent there. The showyer, Reed P. Clark, white, former Consul at Mexico City, has been appointed Consul General and Charge at Monrovia. Wharton could not be promoted, it was said today, because he had been in the Sunday marked another full day at Si-jiam. At the morning hour of worship George Shippen Stark, pastor, took his text from Matthew 8:27, pointing out that when we consider the achievements of man over nature, how he has conquered the forces of nature, we exclaim, "What manner of men are we." Thus we disciple of Christ concerning Him, mankind. Man's discovery of the hidden laws of nature makes him conqueror over those things. We must seek, then find knock and the door shall be opened. And yet so far can we go and no further. We are still the children of these forces. Man is still seeking to regain his lost dominion. The things man's soul seeks most of all are peace and happiness and joy. These are not found in the control of the mastery of the forces of human nature, not in the field of humanity. We must discover other laws than the laws of nature to bring to the soul. By knowing Christ and His field we may share in this peace and happiness and joy. Most of us have lost courage, we are afraid, timorous, Jesus calls us back to courage. Let not your heart be troubled. The forces of nature have no will, man will. He can say no will, won't, and even the sovereignty and mankind will not prewail. Man wants light in the midst of the rainy days of his life. Then let Christ rule in the heart and soul.

By the end of the summer audience will be reached and interested in the other features of the week. Suggestions for a sermon on health containing Bible texts that touch upon the subject have already been sent to a large part of the ministry. The increasing interest the church is taking in promoting better health is evidenced by the activity of the ministry in the State of Alabama where during last year's observance 285 health sermons were delivered to 18,730 people in connection with the health week 803 churches were cleaned and renovated. Pastors of their community realized the importance of preserving their health. Similarly in other states the ministry has been taking a keen interest in campaigning for more Negro health. It has been suggested by the health committee that ministers address themselves to the task of exposing the evils of social diseases many of which could be prevented or cured of the public was well informed about them. Other diseases which scourge the race are also to be attacked N. Y.

Those interested asserted in reply that any of the three Negroes in the consular service could have filled the delegates. Those are Conusul William J. Yerlade at La Rochelle, France; Consul William H. Hunt at St. Elenne, France and Consul James G. Carter at Tananarive, Madagascar. These consuls and Secretary Wharton at Montovia are the only colored man in the diplomatic civil service, Minister Hood being a political appointee. The occupant of the Liberian post ranks as "Minister Resident," the only one in the American service, and is graded lower "Minister," though their "Charge." There precede fear that because of the large American rubber, concession negotiations, the administration will consider the post of increased importance and end by appointing a white Minister to succeed Hood, when the latter resigns. Hood, a citizen of Trenton, N. J., was appointed in 1921. Newman Memorial Church "Christ the Seeker" was the subject of the sermon, preached by Rev. T. W. Cooper at the Newman Memorial M. E. Church, last Sunday morning. The text was from the book "O Come to the Sot of Man... Come to Seek and to Save that which was lost. In his usual forceful manner Dr. Cooper portrayed the Christ coming to the world in obedience to the will of the Father, to bring back to the fold the lost and erring world of mankind; and like the shepherd leaving the ninety and nine to seek for the one lost sheep of the fold, brought joy to the Angels in heaven for the sinner, who repented, and was brought back to the fold of God. At the close of the sermon in response to the pastor's appeal one came forward and was received in the church as a member. Miss Rebecca Williams, superintendent of the Sunday school, conducted the usual session of the school at 1:30 p. m. Rev. Cooper, preached again at 8 p. m. A. M. E.

New York Voters in Texas Editor of The New York Age: I have just read an article discussing while written replacing colored ones in Florida. You are of the opinion that better service is the object of the vote. In Missouri, colored managers work in the white establishment. Now I have been working here for a few months on buildings. While brickmasons and plasterers from the several states tell me that they have worked with colored craftsmen and have given me reason to believe that they are still willing to work here. Some of the citizens here don't seem to be in harmony with such things. They say it is against their local to use colored men and the policemen support them in this regulation. My superintendent told me that he has employed colored men from time to time, and this sums up to a point. They again. My foreman says that he has used colored workmen and there is one friend he will always give a job. Article IV, Section 2; United States Constitution, says: "The citizens of each state shall be entitled to all privileges and immunities of citizens of the several states." Now, when the contractors are willing to work, loved and mechanics are willing to work, with them, is not this abridging our privileges by denying us the right to work. The union law, may forbid, but if any member is willing, why should the officers of the law forbid? It was stated that it is near time for the State Republican Convention, and that Governor and L. J. S. Senator will be on the platform and have your Senator speak for us. With the northern white man coming here, and the southern, Negro migrating, we could be an asset to the G, O. P. in future years if they would but lend us a fund. If your Senator should take 'take' up in the 'Senate' I believe it could easily be erased from the books down here, finally it will die out of their minds. JOHN STROTHERS Miami, Fla. Utica, Miss.—Principal William H. Holtzschaw has announced that the trustees have launched an effort to raise an endowment of $100,000. He also announces an initial conditional subscription by a New York friend of $20,000. He is now in New York giving his time to the raising of the fund. In order to secure the initial gift the fund must be completed by December 31. 1926. The Utica Normal and Industrial Institute was founded in 1903 by Mr. Holtzschaw and his wife, both just graduated from Tankegge Institute. They went to the village of Utica in the southwestern part of the State of Mississippi and began their work without funds, in a locality where of 39,000 Negroes, 13,000 could not read and write. The Negro population largely predominates. In some counties they outnumbered the whites, fifty-five to one. At first there were 'only one fisherman and a few pupils'; no property, not even a house to begin the work, so they had to teach in the open air. But nothing, not even poverty, deterred them. The result is that now the school is well established on its 16,000 acres of land. has 32 teachers and officers, over 600 students (not counting the summer school) and with its buildings and grounds its property is worth $250,000. This is a record difficult match anywhere in the South. The raising of an endowment fund becomes eminently necessary because, of the $100,000 necessary to carry on the work annually, the students can pay not more than $40,000 in both labor and cash. The raising of the balance keeps the principal on the road too great a portion of his time. The Institution is so well known that it is felt that friends will readily respond to this need. How. Vachel Lindsay "Found" Langston Hughes Washington~Vachel Lindsay, Americ- lyric writer, was dining at a local hotel before his lecture on American poetry when a young Negro bus boy came up to him and put some sheets of paper on the table as he cleared away the plates. That was how Lindsay came to know Longston Hughes, whom Carl Van Vechten ranks with the best of the younger American poets. "I could not then talk to Lindsay," said Hughes, "because it is a rule of hold conversation with the guests. I did whisper to him that I liked his poetry and hoped he would think well of mine. That the great surprise Hughes learned from the newspapers next morning that Lindsay not only liked his work but also found it good enough to read with the verses of other American poets. Some of these poems appear in "The Weary Blues" that Knopf has published for Hughes. The poet first began to appear in magazines and then won the first and third prizes in a contest for the best Neo-rope poems of the year. Hughes is no longer rustling dishes. He received a scholarship to Lincoln College, where he will continue his education with his writing. S. C. Colored Women To Rebuild Girls' Home Orangeburg, S. C.-Due to the untiring efforts of Mrs. M. B. Wilkinson, State President of Federation of Colored Women Clubs, and wife of President R. S. Wilkinson of S. C., State A. and M. College, and the assistance of the Sunlight Club, the rebuilding of Fairwalt 'industrial Home for girls, recently burned to the ground, is being fostered. A special "Spring Drive" is being launched, in which every city club presides, directors and leading colored citizens have pledged to put this useful resilience in more handsome and adequate quarters that formerly. There is to be, headdress much dormitory space, a large dining hall, a newly equipped kitchen and living room.

Boston Has Campaign For The Negro In Industry Boston, Mass.-The National Urban League, through its Director of Industrial Relations, T. Arnold Hill, has just completed a week's campaign in Boston at the invitation of the Boston Urban League to introduce the efficient labor worker to the manufacturers and other large employers of labor in Boston. Working in connection with a committee of leading white and colored citizens, the campaign took the form of public addresses before The Twentieth Century Club, Boston University, Ministers of the Methodist Episcopal Church, the Church League for Industrial Democracy, the 92nd Battalion, the League of Neighbors and other churches; interviews with such strategic persons as David Blumfeld, secretary of the Retail Trade Board, Frederick Vorenberg of Gleishert and Co. Department Stores, Godwalle Sherrill, manager of Chandler and Co. Department Stores, Secretary Stetson of the Associated Industries of Mass, Philip Bradley, cotton broker, and others. Special feature articles were published by the leading daily paper of Boston. A permanent industrial committee of the Boston Urban League resulted from the campaign. This committee will be composed of some of the leading citizens, white and colored, of Boston. An editorial appeared in the Boston Herald, Wednesday, February 24, on the subject "The Boston Negro In Industry" which read in part as follows: "We are told that an actual survey disclosed the employment of Negroes in 124 Boston industries, but with only one colored employee in each of twenty-one establishments, less than five in forty-eight, less than ten in sixty-eight, less than twenty in eighty-two. Also that no Negroes at all were found in such industries as charcoal and coke, cigars and tobacco, clothing, fish curing and packing, and canning, and none in car and railroad shops, electric light and power plants, and flour and grain mills. "Get the Pullman shops in Chicago carry on their payrolls 15,000 Negroes, the Detroit automobile industry employs them in thousands, and several big Cleveland concerns employ them in hundreds." "The Urban League declares that colored eligibles are shunted out of the civil service by the discriminatory application of the rule which empowers the heads of departments to select one of three eligibles in filling each vacancy in his department. The colored applicant is rejected. Thus one well-trained Boston high school graduate has been called "thirty five times and never selected." The Urban League contends that the colored man, contrary to widespread belief, able to acquire skill and competence to "fill 'advanced' positions. In this connection we are reminded of the Negro who invented the machine that automatically tacks sole of shoes, and of the colored man who supplied us with the first clock that ever ticked in America. "Thus our attention is directed anew to a problem that is old and the more significant because it is old. The Negro is here to stay. He is entitled to a square deal An intelligent policy for the development of his abilities and his economic possibilities is one of the needs of the day. The Boston Urban League, with offices at 119 Camden street, cooperates with the National Urban League, Inc., which has branches in many cities, in the study of this situation The League does more. It asks Massachusetts employers to give the Negro a chance by furnishing him with work on the basis of his actual merit and by keeping him at work on the basis of his making good "The first time I took Cardul I was in an awful bad way," says Mrs. Ora Carille, R.F. D. 5, Troup, Texas. "I went fishing one day. A heavy storm came up and I got soaking wet in the rain. I was afflicted with awful smothering spells. "My mother had some CARDIU in the house that she was taking, so she immediately began giving it to me. In a few days I got all right. "Last fall I got run-down in health, I was weak and puny and I began to suffer, walk. Having taken Candi before, I sent to the store for a bottle of it. Almost from the first dose I could feel an improvement. "Cardil has helped me a lot and I am glad to recommend it. I don't feel like the same woman I was last fall. My appetite is good now, and I'm sure I Cardil that's made it pick up," All Druggists Birmingham Whites Fail To Remedy Segregation Bans For International Sunday School Council Meeting, Apr.12 Methodist Officials Say Dr. Vass Is In Error In Stating That Negro Delegates To Council Will Not Have To Undergo Humiliation of Segregation Prejudice MORTGAGES NEGOTIATED — PROPERTY AND ESTATES MANAGED — APARTMENTS TO LET AND SUBLEY — RENTS COLLECTED For satisfaction and expert workmanship.

Other conferences will include the annual student vocational conference March 31 to April 2, in which students participate after the same manner as outsiders engaged in the important vocations of Life. Many practical results follow the event, for through it real vocational objectives are established to which courses of instruction lead with certainty: The girls basket ball team closed the season at home. This has been a remarkable season. Games were played with all the leading college and high school teams of this State and Georgia, resulting in an almost complete string of victories. Only one game was lost out of eight Much credit is due Miss Hurlang, the coach. President Wilkinson is receiving many invitations to address field day and school closing exercises, county teacher associations and farmers conferences Owing to pressing official duties at this season he will be able to fill only a few, but expects to tour the State later in the interests demanding his attention.

Another reported activity in the "numbers" game is that of a series of "chain" stationery stores through out Harlem, the proprietor of which is putting in as salesmen his brothers, cousins, uncles and other relatives. But the selling of stationery is secondly to the real purpose for which these places are open, that of taking plays for the "numbers" players. With bold affrontery, in each of these places, small pads of writing paper, with triplicate carbon sheets, are conspicuously placed on the counters, and the player, coming in, simply stands up 'to the counter and makes out his slip of hoped-for "lucky digits." The salesman takes the slips, initials them, hamads ong, to the player, and the others, with the money, ranging from a few cents to dollars, goes into the "numbers" box. And the bulk of the money stays there until it is transferred to the bankers' pockets or to his bank account. Long Stay In Raided Place. The elaborately decorated and gaudily furnished saloon recently opened by Italians at the southeast corner of 132nd street, 2243 Seventh avenue, was paid a lengthy visit by revenue agents a few nights ago, and they prolonged visit from 10 o'clock, p. m., to around their visit from 10 o'clock, p. m., to around noon the next day, and when they left the heavy iron safe, which the agents had been unable to open, agent with them. But—the saloon is still actively engaged in selling hooch, or what is alleged to be hooch, and is doing so much business that the place operated next door at 2241 has apparently lost most of its business Hooch Ousta Beauty Parlor Another change is recorded in the hooch joint at 2288 Seventh avenue, which was formerly operated in the guise of a cigar store. This place is now a full-fledged saloon, without any camouflage. The bootleggers running this place were at the northwest corner of 134th street and Seventh avenue, at first, and when the Federal Court granted the United States Attorney an injunction order, closing the corner place, the bootleggers moved to 2288, which was occupied at that time by the Iris Beauty Shoppe, but the beautifying establishment was moved to the second floor and the bootleggers took possession of the main floor store. The building is said to be controlled by Special Officer Elmer Bush of the Chelsea Exchange Banak, and he is reported to be residing on the top floor. The Federal authorities have made some changes in the enforcement personnel and there is a report that special attention is to be given to the restricting of the sale of alcohol for commercial purposes. The naming of Major Chester P. Mills to succeed John A. Foster as Prohibition Administrator for the New York District is said to be for the purpose of enabling Foster to devote all of his time to handling of the industrial alcohol situation. The city police are cooperating, it is said, and Commissioner McLaughlin has set about the formation of a narcotic-squid for the better carrying out of the new plans. The Police Reserve Editor of The New York Age: Permit me space in your paper to correct an article that appeared in a recent issue of one of the Harlem newspapers on the front page, and also in the editorial sheet, regarding the Police Reserve of Harlem of which I am a part and parcel. I feel constrained at this time to most emphatically deny the statements made about them and do refute all the charges against them as they are erroneous and mjsleading in every way. I have been connected with the Police Reserve for nearly nine years, going through all branches of the organization, and have been placed in a position to study them carefully and know them as they are, which I have done. There is only one distinct colored unit in New York City, and that is here in Harlem, of which I have been commander for five years and every man is under my personal observation, and after being carefully selected for membership is put through a thorough test, both physically and mentally, and is then carefully trained, being instructed in jiu jitsu methods, attending gymnasium and drills, having target practice once a week at school, and receiving instructions through a course of lectures on police procedure. So whoever is responsible for the articles as published has absolutely made false statements and misrepresented the Police Reserve, who have been a valuable asset to the Police Department, a big factor against the lawless in Harlem and a credit to the city of New York. They have established an enviable record through their splendid activities and the standard maintained by them with the commissioners speaks for itself or they would have been disbanded long ago. I feel that I owe it as a duty to my men and myself to defend the honor of this unit for the attacks made against it. It is unfair as well as unjust to an organization that endeavors at all times to be 100 per cent along all lines and receiving commendation from those who know the true value of these men and then to be criticized and denounced through our public press by someone trying to create a false impression upon those who do not know any better The sooner we receive the proper recognition and cooperation from our citizens and the press, the sooner there will be a better Harlem in which our people can safely live There are some people who appreciate and value the services of these men and give them due credit while others can never see any good in any one but themselves Yours for Law and Order. RICHARD WHITE Capt, Com. 16th Precinct Police Reserve THE NEW YORK AGE Hamilton Lodge Ball An Unusual Spectacle 58th Masquerade Furnishes Occasion For Dressing Of Men as Women "The masculine women and feminine men, how are you going to tell the roosters from the hen?" This little ditty might very well have been sung at the 58th masquerade and civic bait of Hamilton Lodge, No. 710, G. U. O. U. O. P., which was held at the Renaissance Casino Friday night, February 20. It seems that many men of the class generally known as "fairies", and many Mohammeds from the Greenwich Village section took the occasion to mask as women for this affair. They appeared to make up at least fifty per cent of the 1,500 people who packed the casino and in their gorgeous evening gowns, wigs and powdered faces were hard to distinguish from many of the women. All the prizes awarded for the most artistic masquerades seem to have gone to them. Although Hamilton Lodge is a colored organization, there were many white people present and they danced with and among the colored people. Many people who attend dances generally declare that the masquerade and civic ball was the most unusual spectacle they ever witnessed. The prize winners were: Harry Walters, 963 Columbus avenue (white), first prize; George Jackson, 108 West 13th street (colored), second prize; and John Glancey, 425 West 56th street (white), third prize. Pawned Stolen Opera Glasses. Is Arrested Ernest Thompson of 165 West 130th street, was charged with arceny in the Heights Court, and held in $1,500 bail for Special Sessions Court. Mrs. Irene Minck, 130 West 123rd street, testified that someone entered her apartment and stole a pair of opera glasses and clothing. The missing articles were reported to Detective Kammereer, who found them in a pawn shop at 510 Lenox avenue. When the pawn ticket was traced, it was found that Thompson had pawned the opera glasses and clothing. He was arrested and taken to the West 123rd street Police Station. When arraigned in court, Thompson said that the glasses had been given to him by a woman for whom he worked. Judge Silberman held Thompson in bail for further hearing.

The prospects are that anti-lynching legislation will play a considerable figure in the proceedings of the present Congress. The Dyer anti-lynching bill was introduced in the House of Representatives in the early part of the session, while Senator McKinley of Illinois sponsored a similar measure in the Senate. The Senate Judiciary Committee had this latter measure in charge in the form of a favorable report from the subcommittee, which has been holding hearings upon it. Its report to the Senate is expected to precipitate another struggle over its passage, as the Southern Democrats are expected to filibuster against it. The opposition will be hampered by the precedent established in the adoption of the world court resolution, where many Democratic Senators voted for closure in order to prevent a filibuster. This was the thing that aroused the urge of Senator Reed of Missouri in an extent that he warned these Democrats that they might expect this action to be used against them when anti-lynching legislation was concerned. Whether he will make his warning good by voting for closure against their filibuster remains to be seen. One of the advocates of the McKinley measure in his plea before the Senate sub-committee, urged the resort to closure in case of an attempt to kill the measure by a filibuster. A filibuster is the parliamentary device used in the senate to kill a measure by prolonged speechmaking so as to prevent a vote. The filibusters keep speaking and reading books and documents until the measure is abandoned or the session is brought to an end by final adjournment. The only way provided to break this deadlock is by the use of closure, a motion for which can be ordered by a bare majority, forty-nine votes. But in order to make closure effective in closing the debate a two-thirds vote is necessary. It would therefore require sixty-four Senators voting in favor of closure to ensure the passage of the anti-lynching bill. Nearly all of the Republican and Progressive Senators can be counted upon in the preliminary step to order closure upon this measure, but the rub will come when the two-thirds majority is required. Whether enough Democratic Senators from Northern States will break lookse from their Democratic colleagues on this question is one of the possibilities of the situation. The Southern Senators are really the ones who should support anti-lynching legislation as a boon to their section. It promises relief to an evil which most of the tates concerned been powerless to remedy. The threadbare subterfuge of state rights as a constitutional objection has been deprived of its effectiveness as an argument by the action of Southern Congressmen in supporting the Eighteenth Amendment and other measures encharging the sphere of federal authority. The real statesmanship of the South as represented by such leaders as Senator Underwood of Alabama and Senator Bruce of Maryland, should support the Dyer-McKinley bill as a means of preserving civilization in the section where it is most menaced by the excesses of the mob spirit.

Republican district leaders of Brooklyn and Queens heard some sound practical advice on Washington's Birthday, when Senator James W. Wadsworth, Jr. visited Brooklyn. He told them in no uncertain language that one of the big jobs confronting them today is that of bringing the Republican party "close to the people." This is in line with the policy that The Age has been urging upon the district leaders in New York county so it is gratifying to find the United States Senator emphasizing the necessity for such action. As reported in the Brooklyn Standard Union, this part of Senator Wadsworth's speech was given as follows: Republican district leaders of Brooklyn and Queens heard some sound practical advice on Washington's Birthday, when Senator James W.

As reported in the Brooklyn Standard Union, this part of Senator Wadsworth's speech was given as follows: It was toward the conclusion of his speech that Steward Wadsworth made his language apt and useful to the leaders gathered before him. He remarked that he was a firm believer in organization. believe in high art doesn't get very far," he remarked. "Sometimes they are very alluring and sometime, they are just plain noisy. In the long run, the solo artist doesn't get very far in the now of permanent results. tonholling' their friends, pulling doorbells, climbing stairs and doing the practical work. 'What we want to do in our party to-day' and I am not here to scold—is to get our party close to the people. It's the district worker that does that, and I wish, indeed, more workers in the district would do that. Some people hold aloof from work like that for various reasons. Yet I think it is one of the greatest privileges one can have to meet people, exchange thoughts with them and come in contact with them in the manner of the district worker. "So our all I should be to get the party close to the people. It can't be done overnight. It takes time and effort, but it will be done." The necessity for the kind of work recommended by Senator Wadsworth was never greater than it is today. There is too much of a spirit of aloofness on the part of many of the district leaders among Republicans and a disposition to run party affairs along exclusive lines. This is all very well in social matters and in parceling out the offices among a favored few, but it does not bring out voters to the polls on election day. The results of such indifference to the welfare and interests of the people at large are reflected in the dwindling of the party vote and the defeat of State and local candidates in recent elections. Nothing short of a Presidential election can be counted upon to bring out the full Republican vote today in any of the boroughs of New York. When Senator Wadsworth recommends that the Republican leaders should get the party close to the people, he necessarily includes all the voters, without distinction of race or color. The disposition too often manifested to disregard the Negro voters as an integral part of the party strength must be changed. This group of voters must be recognized to the same extent as other elements in representation in the party councils and in the distribution of official patronage. Too many of the district leaders fail to recognize this fact, and thus promote dissatisfaction and dissension in the party ranks. Senator Wadsworth's advice was both sound and timely. It should be heeded and adopted by those leaders who are anxious to build up the Republican party in New York City.

Koenig, chairman of the New York County Committee, has been vindicated by a vote of the committee, there seems to be some doubt as to who was responsible for the failure to pass the Grenthal bill. The best way for Mr. Koenig to make his vindication complete and to regain the confidence of a large number of voters, whose health and comfort would be aided by this legislation, would be for him to go to Albany and use his influence in pushing its passage. Since the Hon. Samuel S. Koenig, chairman of the New York County Committee, has been vindicated by a vote of the committee, there seems to be some doubt as to who was responsible for the failure to pass the Grenthal bill. The best way for Mr. Koenig to make his vindication complete and to regain the confidence of a large number of voters, whose health and comfort would be aided by this legislation, would be for him to go to Albany and use his influence in pushing its passage. The bill introduced by Assemblyman Grenthal was intended to correct harm done to many tenants in Harlem, and other sections of the city, by profiteering landlords, who refused to perform necessary repairs even when ordered by the health or tenement house department. These landlords would deliberately allow their property to fall into such unsanitary conditions, as to force the tenants to move, or else remain at risk of health and great inconvenience, with the intention to force the tenants out and re-let the apartments at increased rates. The Grenthal bill would stop this profiteering game by allowing the tenant to pay his rent into court, until the required repairs had been made. This measure would be of special benefit to the colored tenants in Harlem, where congested housing and scarcity of apartments has allowed landlords to raise rents to an extortionate extent, except where the emergency rent laws have afforded the tenants some measure of relief. In such cases the landlord endeavors to force these tenants out by refusing to make necessary repairs deliberately causing such discomfort and unsanitary conditions as will cause these tenants to vacate. This is why the voters in the Nineteenth district backed up the efforts of the District Leader, David B. Costuma, in whom they have the greatest confidence when he took up the fight against those responsible for the defeat of this bill. They felt and still feel that he was fighting to give them better living conditions. The vindication given Chairman Koenig will not be complete until he puts himself squarely on record in favor of such legislation as will help to make living conditions better for the people of Harlem. The Grenthal bill is such a measure.

A recent trip to South Carolina gave the traveler an insight into such patent inequalities, as to support the theory that some southern legislators and officials believe in encouraging literacy, especially among Negroes. A short stay at Florence showed an alarming disparity between the education al facilities provided for the two races. This town had a population of over ten thousand, according to the census of 1920, and its income from taxes last year was $3,042,000. Yet the amount spent annually for education is but five dollars a head for the white child and two dollars for the black. The term for the colored schools runs but four or five A recent trip to South Carolina gave the traveler an insight into such patent inequalities, as to support the theory that some southern legislators and officials believe in encouraging illiteracy, especially among Negroes.

Yet the amount spent annually for education is but five dollars a head for the white child and two dollars for the black. The terms for the colored schools runs but four or five months, while for the white schools it is six or seven months. With the inadequate appropriation made for scholling of all kinds, of which the Nee- THE NEW YORK AGE Heroes are allotted only forty per cent. as much as the whites, it naturally follows that not only is the school term cut short but the day of the teachers for the colored schools is below the average. Insufficient pay draws to teaching force below the standard and the grade of work accomplished suffers in consequence. There are exceptions to this rule found among the teachers, who labor for insufficient pay for the love of their work, but the general work is not up to the standard. Another glaring injustice is presented in the shape of the public library, for the support of which every property owner is taxed three mills on the dollar. And yet no Negro, however much tax he may pay, is permitted to enter, or draw a book from this library. A collection of some two hundred books has been supplied to the colored school for the use of the pupils only. It is to be seen from these visible inequalities, to be seen by all men, including the transient visitor, that the policy, of such towns as Florence is not to encourage elementary education of any form of culture among the Negro population. The white people in authority cherish the short-sighted idea that education is a bad thing for the Negro. It may be because education renders it harder to exploit the ignorance of the race, but that is too far removed to figure in the calculation. The scant appropriations made from funds raised by taxation for Negro education, in such states as South Carolina, are supplemented to some extent by the work of the Beanes Fund and the Rosenwald Fund, as well as by the voluntary contributions of the Negroes themselves. What is needed is capable colored man as the representative of these two funds, to see that they are distributed to the best advantage and where they will get the best results. Education in South Carolina needs all the stimulating possible, and this applies to both faces. When the native statesman realize this fact, the outlook for the future of the state will be much brighter.

LEGALIZED LYNCHING A new term has been added to the vocabulary of American jurisprudence in the case of the phrase, "legalized lynching," to cover the recent trials of two prisoners, while mobs of would-be-lynchers were held at bay by armed guards and barbed wire entanglements. The legal forms of a trial for the two men accused of atrocious crimes were held respectively at Lexington, Ky., and Georgetown, Del. The state and local authorities exerted the full power of the law to prevent murder by the mob and to bring about formal compliance with the forms of law. But the result was hardly the sort of trial provided by law. The St Luke Herald of Richmond characterized the proceedings as follows: A new term has been added to the vocabulary of American jurisprudence in the use of the phrase, "legalized lynching." to cover the recent trials of two prisoners, while mobs of would-be-lynchers were held at bay by armed guards and barbed wire entanglements. The legal forms of a trial for the two men accused of atrocious crimes were held respectively at Lexington, Ky. and Georgetown, Del. The state and local authorities exerted the full power of the law to prevent murder by the mob and to bring about formal compliance with the forms of law. But the result was birdily the sort of trial provided by law. The St Luke Herald of Richmond characterized the proceedings as follows: This is what we call legalized lynching. The very meaning of court is prudence, deliberation, consideration, cold and unsturred by popular clamor, and a verdict reached with imposing solemnity, and handed down with pity and patience towards the criminal. But here, in these cases, we have machine guns trained upon a soiled mob outside the court room. The militia is parading and patrolling the streets. The atmosphere is pregnant with suppressed feelings and emotions. A match is burning near the fuse of a magazine of death and sudden destruction. In such an atmosphere a Negro is on trial for some crime that shocks the thoughts of them. The Press whoops that that state had a lynching stain. We say that the lynching went on just the same in a so-called robe of law and order. Of course this is a step in advance, but when they hand us such a thing as this, we should at least know what they are handing out to us, a legalized lynching. The fact that the court proceedings at Lexington were reported to have occupied but seventeen minutes goes far to justify the views expressed in the Herald. While the Delaware proceedings were conducted with greater deliberation, lasting over a period of six hours, it is to be noted that the jury rendered a verdict of guilty in less than two minutes. While there appeared to be no doubt entertained as to the guilt of the accused men in these two cases, it is questionable if they received the fair and impartial trial the law contemplates. The legal authorities did well to assert the supremacy of the law over the mob. It was a step in advance over allowing the mob to murder and torture without restraint. It may be too much to expect the courts to assist upon a fair and impartial trial under such circumstances, when jurors, court officials and prisoners are alike menaced by threats of mob violence. The only recourse open to the court would be a change of venue to another county, where the legal processes of the trial could proceed without intimidation. The law provides for such emergencies and it should be invoked when season demands it. Legalized lynching is not much better than lynching by the mob. Neither should be tolerated in a civilized community. Justice cannot be expected when the courts must function under intimidation of the mob.

The College of the City of New York is an institution maintained by the taxpayers at public expense for educational purposes. Comments by The Age Editors On Sayings of Other Editors THE AGE READERS' FORUM THE AGE READERS' FORUM Among its various departments is the School for Education, of which Dr. Paul Klapper is the dean. This school has a class of students preparing for the position of principal of elementary schools. Applications to join the class are apparently submitted to an admissions committee, which exercised the power of admission or exclusion. Among the number of applicants there was but one colored teacher, and his application was denied, while some sixty white applicants were admitted. In notifying this applicant of the action taken in his case, Dean Klapper said, in a letter "that because of the large dumbers applying for admission it is constrained to deny you admission. This is in no way a reflection on your ability. The committee is considering the qualifications of the various candidates relatively and is selecting, of course, those who A correspondent of a local contemporary, in a letter to the editor on "Personal journalism," was made to close his strictures on entertainments given by unlift organizations as follows: Individuals and organizations who essay to do uplift work should remember the old adage "You can't serve God and mammal at the same-time." The censorious crime evidently thought it was a whale of a proposition. Judging from an editorial note in the Star of Zion, there appears to be a lack of harmony between the present editor, Dr. W. H. Davenport and his predecessor, Bishop W. J. Walls. The note read. Bishop Watie Jehu Walls has written another extended, evasive, semiapologetic, inaccurate reply which we are publishing in another column of this issue of the paper. We cannot further afflict this page with replies to His childish vapurnings and hysterical array of high-sounding words and misquotations. We have given him twice as much space as we have given any Bishop in the Church. He is hard to please. We dismiss him. In his letter, the Bishop had said, "It was wrong and unwise for the Editor to-lug our official discussions at New Orleans into public print". He also referred to an editorial as "prizefighter's language". These militant brethren should compose their differences and set a better example for the laity. Colored Printers and Elks Editor of The New York Age "It the Negro's self-pride deteriorating!" Is a question which comes to one who has watched race actions in the past few years, and especially with regards to the chances and opportunities which have met the Negro since Harlem has become so thickly settled by the race. For the past few years the Mr. Tie Monarchs, a lodge of Elks, supported by colored men and women entirely, which was fought with other Negro Elks, in every court in the State by the white organization bearing the same name to pursue the existence in New York has publied a creditable souveni program, an nouncing their annual entertainment Year after year the program has been done in creditable style by Negro printers, who employed other Negro printers. But to my surprise, when I took up a copy of the program on their last entertainment, I saw that of here the unprinted of a white printing house which the writer knows would not employ a Negro turn to sweep the floor and hale the waste paper. Had the general appearance of the purchaser been superior to that of the programs of former years there might have been room for justification of the giving the contract to a white printer. But to the technical printer the workmanship did not measure up in excellence of brush, with that of former years, which the experienced printer is compelled to believe was at a cost much less than that of the one in question. These beneficial organizations which are built up solely upon the support of the Negro and which are compelled to engage in much sophisty to own control of the less thoughtful by luminous oratory, would do much better if they supported struggling institutions of their own rather than everlastingly be trying to show other races how recklessly they can spend their followers' money to no advantage in building up their own. In Harlem there are printing offices owned by colored men, fully equipped to produce anything in the line of prints, that may be required by the churches, the organizations, religious and secular business establishments, individuals and all other activities and the race journeyman printer is of equal skill technically and artistically, with any handler of type. Then why seek those who do not need your support, and keep your own in a constant, destructive struggle to It is supposed that organizations band together for the upbuilding of the activities of their own race. But when the Negro "gets to going good," his first step seems to be to drop his own and spend all he has gathered from his struggling followers with the people who have day by day, tried to present him from rising above the condition of a "hew- stand relatively among the highest." In a later letter, in reply to some points raised by the rejected applicant, Dean Klapper denied that social consideration guided the committee in its selection and made some earnest protestations of readiness to help the applicant individually and the colored citizens of the city. But he added, significantly, "a selection must be made and in the process some must be denied the privileges which are given to others." This may all be true, but until the basis of such selection is made clearer than Dean Klapper has stated it, there, will remain a fishy odor about this exclusion. It should be made clear that race and color play no part in the admission of students to any department of an institution supported by the taxpayers of New York City. T news item in the St Paul Echo notes the progress of a building boom in the Twin Cities of Minnesota. It said: Milton Shanks, Minneapolis, Negro contractor and builder who completed more than $80,000.00 worth of building contracts in the past year, states that about $25,000 was of colored builders. This marks Negro progress and with Mr. Shanks' new plan in effect, that is to build your home on your own lot, he believes the amount of business that he will do this year will be doubled. This is a gratifying indication of racial progress in the growing section of the Northwest. It shows that despite climatic conditions the aspirations of home builders will find a way toward realization. In discussing the suggestion that an issue of one million dollars in bonds be authorized for school purposes, the Savannah Tribune said: This is not a large sum to meet the present pressing needs, but the distressing part of it is the suggestion that only one-tenth of it be allotted for colored children. The suggestion of this small sum is astounding. The colored people in this county represent more than fifty per cent of its population. Their school facilities are very meager and wholly inadequate. The white children have a commodious senior high school, two modern junior high and at least seven large and modern buildings, while the colored children have only one junior high school in a modern building and four other improvised schools where double ses- er of wood and drawer of water" The writer, as a member of the Hyrd sincerely hopes that all organizations will take steps to build up institutions by which the rising generation of Negroes will be able to find means of support from their own rather than supporting large business industries run by other races. There is no doubt about it that there are enough organizations among the Negroes to establish some substantial business industries which would support a great number of our unfortunate able W F H CHASH Columbia Lodge 85, Washington, D C An Important Question Editor of The New York Age Are there any personal benefits to be denied by members of one race patronizing business and professional people on their own race? The above question was asked and discussed at a literary meeting held in the library room of the Metropolitan Baptist Church. The major inclusion the president of the Literary and one outstanding officer of the church discussing the question stated that there is no advantage gained when it comes to our race due to sincerity or patronizing professional people within our own group. Nearly every point advanced on the question was from a selfish angle, for all who believed that we are not benefited by doing business and trading in general one with the other, stated that after doing business for a while with any one of our group, he or she soon gets too important, and beyond the race As a rule the masses in a meeting such as is conducted by the members of the sliterary body usually follow the leaders, and this could have been the case at the meeting in question, but even the president saw her mistake after Mr E. T. Rhodes, one of Harlem's most progressive young business men who introduced the question showed clearly that there is every advantage to be obtained by members of our race as well as other races, supporting all worthwhile efforts within their groups, and so every possible patronage is prerequisite people. Strange to say not long ago I heard a well known social and religious worker of our race whose husband is one of the leading physicians of the city, say, 'I cannot do business with my people.' But her husband made, and is still making his money among us. community, and especially those of my race, will realize that there are benefits to be derived by supporting each other along all worthwhile lines.

Compare the fac- ties for the two races and consider the suggestion of allotting the hundred thousand dollars to the white and only one hundred thousand to the colored children, and the of the fact that we have a organized senior high school.

It said: The whole Negro population has made to feel more safe and less things have happened as the whole Negro group feels that they may purse the even tenor of the law knowing that they will be given protection of the law to its fullest. We do not believe that we receive gift of prophecy to predict the fate of more and better homes in the cities and rural sections in our area as a result of this seeing the security and protection We do believe that we are wrong in providing a wider stay-at-home training of bosoms of the Negro laborers, whom in such large measures contributed to the success of the State of Louisiana.

Martin, Esq. one of the committee of three (Harry H. Davis, Charles W. Chestnut and Martin) which voluntarily met the local committee of Commerce committee on immigration last week, informs The Gazette that the publication of last week, in a rare temporary, has not been adopted by the committee or its sub-committee which has the matter under consideration. The alleged report is undoubtedly the work of some southerner or southern pathologist and prejudiced member of the sub-committee who would, if he could be about in this section of the country, the adoption of the segregation and color-line methods of the South. The alleged report in its entirety is advocated by the Ku Klux Klan that out the country and is not only outspous but positively un-American. The two dominant features of the alleged report are: first, a recommendation that Ohio law be over-ridden in order to bring about separate schools for our people and other secregation; an impatience this time, Second, that the Congress is asked to throw down the bars against an indiscriminate immigration from foreign countries, in order to replace the Negro laborers in North The Gazette does not believe that Chamber of Commerce, or its commission on immigration could ever allow outrageous recommendations. of some note. If you help to add large and worthwhile business enterprises, surely they will reap the ward; they will not have a school fully prepared along with professional lines, and with doors of opportunity open.

Calvary Methodist Church Calvary beings: this morning the final week of its successful revival services which have been productive of such wonderful results For his sermon the pastor, Dr J N. C. Coggin, took his subject the "Blinding Powers of Sun", from the message o the Philippines: "But the Philistines took him and put out his eyes and bound him with fetters of brass, and he did grind in the prison house." This strong man, obviously, is Samson, who was destroyed, in spite of his great physical strength, because he became blinded by sin. Dr. Wm. N. Holt, who preached the evening sermon, took his text from the 20-23 verses of the 30th chapter of Phesians, subject, "Forgive one another as God has forgiven ye." The Sunday school was favored with the famous "Ten Steps to Heaven" sermon by Dr. Holt. A liberal collection was taken up. Rush Memorial Church "Jesus, as a modernist" was the subject of Dr. Oliver's sermon last Sunday morning and is also the first of a series of three sermons to be preached by the pastor of Rush. The subject was divided into four distinct parts—(1) The World's Greatest Need, (2) Keeping Step with the Times; (3) What is a Modernist, (4) How Christ Sets us Free. The Ladies' Auxiliary to the Usher Board celebrated the 40th anniversary Rev Dr Spearman of Bethel A. M. E. Church delivered the sermon to a large and enthusiastic congregation. A goodly number of ushers, male and female, were present from the various churches. Dr Spearman preached on "Service without Love" basing his remarks on the value of a service with love as compared to a service without love. A musical program was rendered "The Junior choir Mrs Mary Williams is president of the her Board. In the evening, Rev F. I Berthorne, superintendent of the West Indies Baptist Churches, delivered a sermon on "Jesus Only" by Matthews, organist, rendered special music—The Pilgrims Chorus, Waquer, by request, "Meditation" by Bubek, and "At Twilight," Stebbins. Next Sunday at 11 o'clock, Dr Oliver will preach on "Jesus As a Fundamentalist." Music will be furnished by Junior Choir At 3:15 m, holy communion, special sermon. March 24, at 8:30 celebration of 83rd anniversary and grand reunion. Special musical program by Abbie Mitchell and C Carroll Clark. First Emmanuel Church At the 11 o'clock services Sunday, Pastor Bolden preached from the text: "Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a flood of witnesses, let us lay laye every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beat us and let us run with patiennes the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus the author and minister of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God" Hebrews 12 1 2 Theme "A Command for our supreme effort, that we may have a glorious achievement." Pastor Hollenkai said: At the present time we hear a great deal being said against the emploss of christian doctrine, creeds and religious teaching. Some would have the people believe that the leaders and advocates of these doctrines and creeds are attempting to usurp the right of personal liberty of action and freedom of thought. But with a little examination and reflection it is quite apparent that this is not true. It may be clearly understood that oppressors of christian doctrines and creeds have to valuable substitutes to give the children of men as guides to beautiful life of service and goodness. They have the alluring and inspiring aims, hopes ororious promises to offer to those who strive. At the same time they manifest the same tendency of craving and lasing their thoughts and opinions in such forms as they would have people to accept and follow in a sense, though they object to the emploss of certain doctrines, creeds and customs. Attempt to formulate moral authority, goodly and universal opinions for others. We have witnesses to the truth of such dealings and mature taints in the world of humans. The writer of the book of Hebrews parages before the followers of our Lord Jesus the Emmanuel one of the outstanding characters. While the writer's objectives might have been for the purpose of checking and restraining the spirit of apostasy that had arisen among the Jewish followers of our Lord the Emmanuel, we find in the thought of the text ideas that can be used in detention of creeds and convicts to day. It is most fortunate that there is so little attention given in the home among organized religion, groups and in churches to doctrine, creeds and covenants that have been formulated out of the testimony of the witnesses in the Old Testament to the power and triumph of faith in God as seen in the life of Jesus (God, people, prophets, kings and priests). And then the tradition of that faith seen in the person of our Lord Jesus the Emmanuel according to the testimony of the four gospel writers, as well as the great apostle Paul, should quicken inners and leaders of our Lord to assume the spirit of Martyrdom and be determined to treasure establish and promulgate a set of those truths that show truth, justice, holiness, not power of God. We have the witness of angels to the truth that Jesus the Historical Jesus the Perfect Man the very God is the Author of Eternal Life, the Captain and Leader of our salvation from sin and death and its wages, and the giver of everlasting life to those who believe in Him. White angels did not say this in literal words their forms of thought manifest in But He, our Lord Jesus the Emmanuel, said these things, and His earthly career in demonstration of power, as well as His resurrection and asception, to the testimony to the truth of his ability to make good His promise and fulfil his contract. Therefore we should do all that the text says concerning our athletic effort and keep a single object WHERE TO GO TO CHURCH tive before us, "Looking unto Jesus, who is the author and filisher of our Faith. We should neither turn to the right nor to the left, no look backward or downward; but like Him, "Who for the joy that was set before him, cultured the crucis, despairing the shame and in down at the right hand of the throne of God." The Sunday school was opened at 4 p.m. In the evening the Rev. Joseph Holder preached to the many assembled. His text was from Deuteronomy 33:27. Union Baptist Church Monday evening, Mrs. Nannle Turner Taylor presented a Washington celebration which was largely attended Among those who helped to make the program interesting were: Mrs. L. D. Sims, (Martha Washington); W. H. Lloyd, (Uclee Sam); Prof. W. A. Calloun, Prof. Watkins; Mrs. Cornelia Dickerson, Mrs. I. Overby; Miss I. Mack, Miss G. Park, Miss Edith Sims, Mrs. B. Withey, Richard Branch, E. Haynes, Miss Helen Dowdy, J. W. Branch, Miss Ariel Sims and Martin Withey, Master George Sims and James Withey, Miss L. Rowland, Miss Thelma Reed and H. Matthews. Tuesday evening, the Church Aid Society held its tenth annual meeting. J. E. Yates, childmaker, asked for the report of the financial secretary. The report showed that the sick had been cared for and all death claims were paid. The balance on hand is over $1,000. This department is run by the Official Board and he Missionary Circle of the church. The president of each auxiliary to the church is a vice-president of the Society, Dr E. J. Echola of Buffalo, N.Y., delivered the usual message. Subject: "Stewardship." Dr Echola was with us during the entire week, preachir a series of sermons from the following subjects: "Missions," "Evangeliam," "A Victorious Church," "Conquering Through Prayer," "What Am I Doing," "The Womanly Woman," "Play the Game Fair," and "Tithing." The offering amounted to $198. Harlem Second Seventh Day Adventist Church Elder C. K Meyers, one of the General conference secretaries, addressed the Second Church, 106-108 West 127 street on last Saturday morning at eleven o'clock. The speaker drew some very helpful and inspiring lessons from the two main pillars of Solomon's Temple. He said they were suggestive of the strength and victory promised the individual Christian.

Our cook with an interating music and it rays program provided by Mrs. Morrish; one feature of which was the Spanish songs by a group of Spanish friends of the church. The senior and junior choice began their practice at five thirty. Sunday night, pastor Strachan occupied the desk. He chose for his theme, "Respect For Civil Law and Divine Statute. Among other things the pastor said: "What I ought to do, and not what I want to do should be my standard. So long as men and nations do as they want to do, instead of what they might do, our need is beaded straight for confusion and trouble. We want Home rule. Now each man and dual fristrain is given home rule. Our own way and in our own direction. Their staple government would be treated into confusion. Give to each man and woman under the sun who he wants, and let each do by the pleases, and nothing is gained by the freedom. Depressed humanity can't be expected to choose the right. For a thousand years God set both good and evil before man and they have chosen the evil every time Freedom turns to sense, and unrestrained liberty to be conduct invasively. Signease this for one single day all civil law in New York City was suspended and every one is now understood that for a period of 24 hours nothing else would be in a standard punishable crime; nearly the entire population would instantly plunge headlong into a carnival of shame and wickedness. What an overwhelming tide we would see of assault, rape, adultery, ofgy, theft, hold up, and murder. Conditions are bad enough as it is with the ordinary caring restraints of law and courts. Civil law and courts are an absolute necessity, in a word, not like this; but only a few of us ever judge to appreciate their blessings. We enjoy the benefits, but think very little of their importance. Now the idea and the thought of throwing a regiment around the activities of men grows out of a principle that is found in the law of God itself. If civil law is a necessity, moral law higher, than man's shaping is infinitely more a necessity. Beliefs of moral law stands a moral Governor, infinite wisdom and capable of determining right and a mind with knowledge sufficient to wisely standardize our conduct. "God's law" measures citizenship in His kingdom, and our relation to His law, through tath in Christ, determines whether or not we are accepted into AFRICAN METHODIST EPISCOPAL BETHEL A. M. E.

His kingdom. We read in Ps. 37:29—30 that God’s law is in the heart of the righteous; he stope slit not the shalt so into the kingdom. We read again in Rev. 22:14. Blessed are they that do the commandments they have a right to enter. Here we see that the individual who obeys God’s law can be excluded from the kingdom. He holds a right to be there. "Obedience to the sovereign will and law of the American State stamps a man a worthy American citizen. Foreigners who apply for naturalization papers are compelled to produce a warrant statement to the effect that they have shown respect to our laws at least for a period of the years, during which time they have resisted here. Upon the absence of this testimony the application is denied, and the foreign born man cannot become an American citizen. "The obedience is a permanent universal statue, a spiritual index there in him, weak not defended by its intercessions are based on an individual principle of right doing the great Lord of Heaven framed this law, for the purpose of casting a reasonable recurrent around our moral acts, and unqualified obedience to what God requires in His law is the mark and the test of our devotion and loyalty to God.

Carlson and given under the auspices of the Lady Usher Board on last Thursday night was aides despite the fact the day and evening proved to be so stormy. In the concert on sale of tickets Mrs J. B Anderson came out ahead, and while the returns for tickets are not at this writing the President Mrs M. Cheaves, assures the writer that the concert will be financially restoring. They deserve credit for the way they worked. The B A P U was preceded by a song service, conducted by the pastor who, after this, turned the meeting over to the president, D. Dougherty, who in turn, in the absence of the group leader for the evening conducted the entire service opening the topic of directing the discussion that followed. This song man is proving to be a real Christian worker, and all our young people should rally around him. Friday night and Sunday morning prayer services were attended larger number, seemingly as the result of the pastor talk about the matter. We hope to see increasingly larger number to all of the week night meetings, as three measure the spiritual strength of the church. Sunday was a beautiful day and though pleasures kept quite a number of the faithful in their homes, there was a good attendance at the three preaching services. The pastor preached morning and evening on the themes, "Reasons Remaining with Christ" and "The Attractive Power of The Uphlifted in the afternoon at 4, Rev J S Mahlangu, a native African, who is an America working under the Foreign Mission Board of the NBC, preached a wonderful sermon on the theme "Trusting God. He will also give a sermon on lecture in the Church on Thursday night, May 4. We were delighted to meet of the members who have been safe out to the services on Sunday and hope that all the others will soon be able to fill their places once more. St. James Pres. Church Sunday, February 28. 11 a.m. services were well attended. The pupil was filled by the Rev. E. P.

It was the largest turnout usher ever in Salem. Beautiful bouquets of artificial American beauty poses contained the presentations made to Dr. Hughes and Dr. Cullen and others. The music of the choir was a great contribution to the services all day. Nazarene Cong. Church Rev. Henry Hugh Proctor filled the pulpit on both services Sunday, February 28. At the evening hour he spoke on "Burning Bridges Behind" and made a plea for a clean break with the past, and a courageous setting out for the future.

In doing so he took occasion to state how he was inspired to make the result of his observations, while on a visit last week with other clergers and prelate at luskegee Institute. He also paid a high tribute to the late Dr. Booker I. Washington tor his great work and his great faith. "The Possibilities of Belief was the basis of the pastor's remarks. The text was St Mark 9.23 "Jesus said unto him that can believe, all things are possible to him that believest. He drew a graphic picture of the invalid child and his parents, as told to St Mark, and changed that came as the result of tath. Dr. I. stated further that God having paired all limitations in our achievements, living tempest or spiritual times. We are what we are because of ingestion of tath. Unrealized of accomplishments are the result of tath. We in the present day civilization have only touched the surface of civilization and the wonder of nature. God has greater mysteries of life, mind body and spirit which He will untold to us. This will come on time and tath will be the potent taton.

Annie Francis of 309 Chifton places joined the church. The funeral of Richard Lovell of 853 Atlantic avenue, who died suddenly with an attack of pneumonia, was held after the morning services.

Hamin, pastor of Mount Lebanon Baptist Church, was the principal speaker He brought a soul stirring message to the several hundred persons present. Lemuel Henson was the speaker at the meeting of the Allen League. He spoke very interestingly on the topic C. C. Bascombe, the vice-president, announced that additional efforts will be made in order to arouse a greater degree of interest in the League meetings. At the evening hour Dr Tyler spoke on "Some observations and Reflections at the Bishop's Council." Prior to the talk he took occasion to thank the stewards and the other officers and members of the church for affording him an opportunity to visit the Council at its session at New Orleans. He stated among other things that it brought more forebay to him the underlying cause why a number of our young men and women leave the church, as aside to a large degree all high moral ideals when they come to the Northern section of the country. He ascribed it to the fact that certain conditions obtain in the South land that constrain members of our group to stay in line. In the North they get away from this pressure and leave the church, and all that is good, unless they have unusual will power. He also paid a tribute to the churches of the South and the hospitality of the South. He also covered at length the impressions made by his visit to Tuskegee Institute, praising the late Dr Washington and his successor, Dr Moton. The talk was followed in short addresses by six young men whom the Sunday school and church had sent to a recent boy's course held at Englewood, N J. They gave excellent talks on the aim of the conference, the lectures, music, etc. Those who spoke were C Cromwell Bascombe, who was chairman of the delegation, Henry Robinson L, Le Roe McNeil, James Yearwood, William Dotson and Percy De Frenatas L.

Next Sunday afternoon the Woman's Home and Foreign Missionary Society under the presidency of Mrs Laura Fuller will present a pleasing program THE Insolent Attitude Said To Be Assumed By Jewish Management Some months ago a committee of representative Negroes conferred with the management of the Roosevelt and Douglas theatres relative to the employment of colored moving picture operators. Then as now, white men are in charge of the booths. They have colored assistants. The management assured the committee its demands would be given serious consideration and an answer forthcoming within a reasonable time. Several days ago a member of the committee was instructed to write Arthur Pekelner and inquire what decision, if any, the management had ever reached. Rumor has it that Mr. Pekelner and some of his associates became very indignant upon receiving the communication. Some one is alleged to have remarked that "Niggers were not going to run their business." The general attitude of those financially interested in these two houses catering to Negroes is said to be one of hostility when race representation is asked. In fact, the very idea of colored people wanting colored operators in a strictly colored neighborhood is said to strike them as reducible and unaccountable. It would not be a difficult matter white men now, in pred movie houses in town, to jobs elsewhere. Such a change would work no hardship to them if capable and dependable. There has been organized in Harlem the Colored Moving Picture Operators Association. It has a membership of sixteen. All efforts of these men to become affiliated with the New Moving Picture Operators' Union in this city is not dominated by the Ku Klux Klan but Jews. There is nothing revolutionary nor unusual in the modest request of Harlem colored theatreregisters that colored operators be given work in houses where the race makes it possible for the doors to be kept open. No demand is made that house managers be employed. According to street gossip, the management of the Roosevelt and Douglass theaters has declared intentions of unionizing their white operators if a determined night is made to bring about the employment of Negroes. Such a threat is construed to imply that if white union operators are used there will be no colored assistants. It is to be regretted that the management of the two movie houses in question does not possess the foresight to see that it would be good business to employ all colored operators. The public is entitled to know the facts in this case. Maybe if it does the management will learn to know the race bet ter "Song And Dance Man" At The Lincoln Theatre If the term "all star" were not so often mentioned and abused, as that it has practically lost its prestine glory it would be a temptation to apply it to the notable cast of screen and stage players Director Herbert Breon has assembled for the proper interpretation of "The Song and Dance Man," the cinema version of George M Cohan's distinguished Broadway comedy success. Tom Moore whose Irish smile and finished acting have won him an enviable following: portrays the title role of "Happy" Farrell, the generous Vandevulian whose tribulations and triumphs provide mode of the pathos and humor in this sentimental story of back-stage life. This is the role made famous by Mr. Cohan in the stage version. Bessie Love the dim but nice favorite and the screen's most exponent of the "Charleston," a happily cast as the small time performer who eventually wins fame and fortune in the cereal comedy, held Harrison Lord, popular leading man as the third featured member of the cast, as the likeable and wealthy artist who falls in love with Miss Love, and succeeds in persuading her that the home and children are better than stage life.

HEAR THEM AT THE SAVOY Tiger Flowers Wins Middleweight Championship (Continued From First Page) a slugging fest with plenty of roughness I flowers was not at my best although he won handily. He fought in several rounds with dazzling bursts of speed only to slow up in the following round and allow (greb to regain his streght) it seemed that he was confident of winning and was satisfied to outpoint the champion. But in view of his experience with McTigue the previous month he should have done all in his power to score a knockout. Rejoiced at Decalon. When the decision was announced, Flowers was like the animal he is named after. He raced around the ring, leaping from one friend to another or until he landed in the arms of his tiny manager, Walk Miller. They hugged each other and shouted their gleam spasmodic narks. Walk Miller, the former Atlanta newspaper man describes a great deal of credit for his energy in pushing Flowers toward. When he first met Flowers years ago he believed him to be the greatest fighter he had ever seen and immediately signed the Igerator a lifetime contract. Fighters were secured for him all over Georgia and the South. Then a tour of Mexico and Cuba was made. Always a great believer in advertising, Miller laterally pounded the press of the country with publicity about Flowers. But the papers took notice of the downfall of Tiger Flowers until he met (reb in Ohio). Then less McMahon brought him into New York and a whole winter Flowers was the principal attraction at the Commonwealth Club in Harlem. His speed and unusual style won a hot spot of friends for him here and soon he was rated among the big time. Flowers have had his back. He was known for last year by Jack Delhouss and man a lady he believed that he and defeat meant his dwindling. But his manager contract through paid休业 to keep him in the light. THE NEW YORK AGE FIELD AND TRACK Theodore of Tiger's Flowers is 25 years old and is a native of Brunswick, Ga. He became interested in boxing while a stewardess so at the wharves of his native town. It was during the war that boxing became popular on Brunswick, due solely to the activities of sailors and their boxing shows. For some reason Flowers became amorous to become a boxer and tried his luck with the local talent. After winning the championship of his city he went up to Atlanta for a larger field of endeavor and there met Miller. He is married and the father of two children. Although he is the first American Negro to hold a title since the day of Jack Johnson there is little danger of him becoming enthralled by women or drink as not as a champion since he has been. He is not a religious nature and is a dea of the church. He never smokes or drinks and does not like New York. When seen by a representative of The Age he stated that he was unnous to return to his home in Georgia and tell "the folks about it." Flowers received 12.12 per cent on the gross receipts, or nearly $1,000 Grebs share was $1.22 per cent.

Luckyeth Roberts Teaching Palm Beach The "Charleston" With Paul Bass They Are Popularizing Negro Dances Palm Beach, Fla.—C. Luckyeth Roberts, who has been entertaining fashionable New Yorkers and other leaders of society here for several winters, is giving "Charleston" dance lessons here this season. He is being assisted by Paul Bass, well known singer and actor, also of New York. The dancers' lessons are held in the homes of the wealthy society folks, away from the eyes of the curious and the vulgar rabble. They meet first in one home then in another. As soon as they get the Charleston down to perfection, they are all going to learn to dance "Snapping the Blues Away," and after they master that they will take a course in the Tap Charleston. Members of the society colony are quite disreet from their new fad. Though they are seen frequently in the gay night clubs, they never attempt to demonstrate their new talent in public. They confine their dancing entirely to private parties. Here are just a few of the more than a hundred pupils who are now taking "Charleston" lessons from Mr. Roberts. Mr. William K. Vanderbilt, Mrs. W. Dick M. Fred Freelhugheson, Mr. and M. H. Hutton, Mrs. Lois K. Kaufman, Countess Salm Ann Hogstäarten, Rodman Wanamaker, Mr. and Mrs. Joshua Cosden, Mrs. L.

Paul Bass is a tenor singer and dancer. He has been connected with several successful shows during the past five years. Brunswick, Ga.—The Athletic Association of St. Athanasius' School, the Episcopal High and Industrial School for colored youth in Brunswick, Georgia, claims to have the greatest basketball team among colored quintets in Georgia, South Carolina or Florida. Every team of any one of the three states which has dared to contest this claim during the present season has been sent down to inglorious defeat by this quintet which has been dubbed "St. A. Lightning Five." The athletic association of this school has recently broadcasted a challenge through colored publications to meet, in a championship game, any team anywhere, barring none, high school, college, "Y," or club basketeers of championship timber. This defiance provoked to combat five quintets which the Lightning Five met, within the past ten days, with the following results. February 19, in Brunswick, St. Athanasius 34, Edward Waters College, Jacksonville, 9; February 22, in Brunswick, St. Athanasius 42, Hudson Five, Brunswick, 18; February 24, Orangeburg, S.

Mr. HORNIMAN. Mr. B. G. HORNIMAN, the form- editor of The Bombay Chronicle'i both in journalism and medical poli- tics. Born of English parish, coming to India to earn his living, he has made the cause of India as his onew and has suffered an exile of land and more. He is the follow- er of Mr. G. G. G. and an Englishman siding with the aspirations of the children of his adopted land was thus an eyewitness to the British Government. He was spit- away during the satyagraha movement to London, where he was forced to pass- port was canceled. It is狼然 to note that after all these years he is allowed to come back. Probably he would resume the editorship of his brutality within the falls. Nowhere on earth, the humanity has been so cheap, as in India. Prisoners are subjected to cruel treatment, and are flogged with iron chains, made to stand in summer in sun-baked sand, of rivers, and are whipped and caned, the salted cats are till they are unconfined on the prisoners, till they are unconfined on the prisoners, till they are unconfined on the prisoners, sometimes days toor- and, some of the prisoners are confined in the und-ground cells of the prison, where they never see the sunlight for months to- and this last sort of treatment is meted out by the usual prison prizers, who have been confined under the much abused Bengal ordinations of 1818. Though the Bengal legislative councils have passed a resolution that their enactment should go and that the prisoners detained under the ordinance should be released unconditionally, and in the British Parliament several ordinances to this effect were put forth, yet the government of India thinks itself to be wise in pounding upon the liberty of the public workers and making them to surrender, so that the may be made unfit to render any more service. The perscription in India is terrible. If there is hell on earth, it is the British Indian jails. Burma Barred There is famine going on in some of the parts of India, and especially in Orissa and Malabar. Also has the same miserable tale of famine has been repeated in several parts of the country. Hence, the people who have been sullied by God-forsalism probably thought well of Burma to earn their living. This was the time for the British Government in India to assist these famine stricken people. But to them the humanity has been cheap. They want even to rob empty skeletons of the people that have been killed and that have therefore the benim (?) British Government has been good enough to raise its income by taxing every 'INDIAN' (many of white), and the other 'British' through any thankful. Is this the brudality and barbarism of the British in India, or a bar in India and other British dominions for a prince and an anson to think over, but this last has added fuel to the fire.

The Government of India gave an evasive support to the Indian deputation that waited on H E. the Viceroy in India, and the Government of India and the government of India's deputation that has been sent to South Africa under the teeth of Indian opposition has received a cold reception from the government. The following cable from R.C.F. Andrews, who has hurried there to give inspiration to Indians, would prove that Government of India is not worth the salt and is wasting public funds over useless dilly-dallying.

Holds Semi-Annual Farmer's Conference Ridge, Md.-The success of the second, semi-annual Farmers' Conference last at The Cardinal Gibbons Institute, February 22, exceeded all expectations. Over a hundred farmers, in addition to the state body, crowded all available space in the dining hall of the Institute, and overflowed into the hall. in opening the meeting, Mr. Daniel, the principal laid especial stress on the racial group without assistance on racial group without assistance on helping the opposite group; the undesirability of intelligent Negroes living among ignorant white people, and the undesirability of people living among ignorant Negroes serged his intention of making the Institute serve both groups, feeling less without such mutual helpfulness, and investment in the condition of the adult counties of the state could be made. Father La Farge, the Institute's chaplain, and a member of the trust, the board took the phrase "land of the Anthem" from the National Anthem twice, for the farmers a very wild picture of the rocky hill—sides of the New England Pilgrims, and the dilemma in cultivation which were the daily task of the farmers, contrasting these cold conditions naturally productive soil, level fields and mild climate of Maryland. He gave the gathering a very excellent advice; for each farmer to select advice; for each formation given by various speakers; for which he could, take home and to make a point of applying it this season. The necessity for an intelligent cooperation of the farmers with The Association was pointed out by Joese Leonardnow, Mr. Mattingly showed the farmers the advantage of an organization which could control sufficiently good practice to ensure a reasonably good profit. Obtain a number of questions relatives to the control of acreage and the advisability'of competition were answered and objections caused by a misunderstanding of functions of the organization were evicted. Dr. Lumtaden from the United State Bureau of Agriculture, spoke at length on the possibilities of establishing the bulb-raising industry in Southern Maryland, pointing out the exceptional climatic and soil conditions suitable for such crops, and illustrating his talk with photographs of the plants in various stages of growth. That standardization of the tobacco crop is one means of maintaining good prices, and that the grade of tobacco once it is raised depends equally on the ability of the crop to stripping and curing it, were emphasized by Brother Carley, Director of the Jerry Barnard Brother Carley, was followed by Mr. Lawrence Williams, of Wynne, treasurer of the Board of Trustees, and President of the Potomac Company, an organization which promises much the economic development of this field. The company plant year around activates the tomato growing and canning, bulb-raising on a large scale oystering and the marketing of oysters. Mr Williams reemphasized in reply to queries what he previously mentioned at the August Conference, that quality and not quantity production would stabilize the price of any crop, whether corn, tobacco, tomahawks, bulbs. He pointed out that the farmers were already filled with an inferior grade of canned tomatoes, and advised using a smaller acreage and cultivating systematically, giving the crop all possible care from planting to packing. The county agent, Mr Wathen, after summarizing points touched on by the other speakers, suggested holding seasonal meetings, at which time the details of handling some one special crop could be talked over, covering the ground more thorough, and would be possible in the semi-annual conferences. The suggestion was approved, and the dates for such conferences will be decided upon by Mr Wathen and Mr. Daniel and announced later. Music was furnished by the students of the Institute. The speakers of the day were guests at twelve o'clock at a St Mary's County dinner, prepared and served by Institute girls. Captain Brabelton of the Potomac Company was among the guests.

A Prayer For The Day (By an Inmate of Jackson Prison) Oh, Lord, may I so live each day As I O can ombly hway, way That I may do some little thing To cause somebody's heart to sing May I not bow to wealth and fame, But treat both king and clown the same, And grant me breadth of view; May I forgive the faults of man And helpful be whene I can, And give each man his due May all my thoughts be good to Thee And may my acts be good to see, May I not pause on one idea Rumor may simply be real, A man who lives for work and fun, And who from trouble does not run And may I have no fear When shadow falls, and may I know What else may come of care and woe That Thee art always near Jackson City, Mich. By Dr B. S. HERBEN Of the New York Tuberculosis And Health Association What Is a Moment to You? A man ran for a taxi cab in order to save a few moments. He slipped upon the ice and killed himself. A man in pursuit of what he knew was his duty, overrode his physician's advice to go home to take preventative pneumonia treatment and stayed on duty after having been in water to his waist on a winter night. He died of pneumonia a few days later. He stole the street when she could have waited for a minute for the traffic to change and give way of way. She was struck by a car and swung down to fracture her skull and later die. (A woman was in too much of a hurry to wait for someone to come and help her lift a heavy pail of hot water down from the stove and it tipped and scaled her so badly that she was ill for weeks. So many times we thoughtlessly save money and risk a lifetime. It is saddened that we human beings can "bent time" and not take punishment for so doing. Time is a man-shaped convenience and like a great number of things which he has made eventually becomes endowed with a sort of personality and "mind of it" that makes his obey laws until when a man ignores that he has a vindictive impulse to destroy their maker and master. Yet if the individual had "gone along" with the man-made thing and recognized its limitations and importance, or non importance it could go along with it. Go along beside since. Utilize him in friendly fashion. He has limitations and his importance is overrated. He will be your slave if you learn to be master, otherwise you shall become the im-merger of your uncle until he summarily cuts you off from life in the very moment in which you are worshiping.

Besthaps the fish knew he was canny and roasted, the fishermen and so anticipated loneliness and happy life, providing the stream did not dry up and he was indulging in a little speculation. The duck, like a certain number of people, cared neither for his neighbor nor his future as he did his feathers—cared He typifies too the person who does not heed possibilities. You can no more afford to ignore colds and "pleurisy pains" than you can dare to ignore the smoke which could into your rooms from the hallway. An acute pain in the chest, especially when followed by a chill or fever, may be caused by pleurys which, in its turn, may warrant of approaching a pain in the chest made worse by taking a breath is generally pleurisy. To go to bed with such a pain is a wise thing to do, but is far from being sufficient. A truly wise person would send for the physician as a nurse and nursing care of a pneumonia patient if means of saving many a life. It does not always avail, but that is no reason for neglecting the possibility, is it? Many of us are tempted to believe that there is not acute disease, the favorable outcome of which so largely depends upon early treatment and skillful nursing. Milder attacks of pleuria, may warn of the presence of tuberculosis and hence should never be ignored. Both in pneumonia and tuberculosis the early diagnosis is necessary if serious illness and long invalidism are to be prevented and life spared. Negro History Week Observed at Cheraw, S. C. Cheraus, S. C—Race History, Week was observed here. The observance began on Monday, morning at the Presbyterian school with an address by Dr. E. A.

Dec51f Principal Krause Tells Parents Of Conditions At Public School 5 Principal Krause Tells Parents Of Conditions At Public School 5 The following is a report of conditions among the students of P. S. S., made at the monthly meeting of the Parets Association of that school by the principal, Arthur K. Krause. There is great satisfaction in considering our accomplishments, in spite of many difficulties under which we labor. We wish to state that I am very well satisfied with what our teachers have been able to do. "A study of the change of registers since February 1922 shows there have been 490 children admitted by regular slips and 4500 children transferred out of regular regular transfer slips, making a total of 9000 changes in the last four years. This figure does not include the admissions at times of reorganization at the terms of the number of pupils who went to P. S. 90, P. S. 119, P. S. Spyder School. This, of course, shows that we have a problem of instability. This school underwent a change also from school with shops to a 68 school without shops in 1924. There was a loss of 2th and 8th classes and of five shops as well. "Our work is difficult here also because, of the great amount of absence of teachers. A great deal of this absence was occasioned by the overwork of teachers and the difficulty of their assignments." During the past year beginning January, 1925, the past 343 days of absence for the 60 teachers, making an average of about 6 days each. The employment of substitutes causes an added duty to the Assistants to Prin- and to the individual teachers in the religious rooms. Changae in the personnel of the school have also taken place. Each term some teachers leave and new teachers come. "An important physical defect is the lack of facilities for handling the students' body outside of the building as there is no outdoor yard. This is a matter where the teacher could render assistance, as there is great need for a play yard for the small children. It would give us better order during the noon hour and would be a help to the children are more orderly on the school grounds on the street. It is not fast to employ the teacher at the noon hour to maintain discipline in the street when he should be recuperating for the afternoon session. So many of our children do not go home. Proper lunching and supervised activity during the noon hour are problems. "As this is a 6B school, all children who are 13 years of age might well be in the Junior High School. But there are 13 years of age low motivation in this school. This is the school from our testing of grades 4A16B December 1925 as well as on two previous occasions. These figures showed children of 12 years or more using a computer, but who are old enough to be in the Junior High School. In grades 4A to 6B, the number of children with I. Q. below 50 was 1. Those with I. Q. between 50 and 59 numbered 20. Those with I. Q. between 59 and 60 numbered 50. This made a total of 80 children examined for the Ungraded Classes be examined for the Ungraded Classes. There are 265 children within the group of 70 to 89 dull normal group. This is a 13 years of age in grades 4A to 6B who are below normal age due to the lack of opportunity they had before they came to New York City. The same cause is chiefly responsible for the overage problem in this school. We have been handling these conditions with 13 classes of about 25 students. The teaching of these classes requires a teacher and the teachers should hold permanent contact. Our difficulty is the lack of such teachers so that relief may be given when necessary to the overworked teacher. These children should have more manual action which will train their hands to hold clerical equipment to expect to hold clerical work. It would seem desirable that as many overage pupils as possible should be accommodated in the Junior High Schools with access to training in the shops. Many of these children will be compelled to go to work before education. There are 179 children 13 years old, 55 who might well be in the Junior High School. This is a reduction from 225 to 179 in a year. "A study of home life from the reports of pupils themselves reveals the impact of living environmental conditions. There are 1324 children who do not live with either mother or father. There are 1324 children who live with both mother and father. There are 407 children living with another. There are the total number of replies of children in this number 1264 children go more or less regularly to church or Sun- will promote a full Growth of Hair; will also Restore the Strength of Hair and the Beauty to the Hair If Your Hair is Dry and Dryy by EAST INDIA HAIR GROWER If you are bothered with Hairling Hair, Dandruff itching Scalp, or any Half Troubles, we want you to contact us.

There are $55 children in our school whose both parents have to work in reason the parents are not home to receive the children when they come home from school. Many of these are paying $65 rent where tenure forfears $25 and $30. There is great need here for service workers, as improper environment is often the cause of delinquency. The only available place to put these delinquent colored boys seems to be in the House of Refuge the Catholic Protection which, after 20 years in the resort. At present the colored children are included from the Children's Villages. The age from 10 to 16 is known as the religious age, whereas the period of 16 to 20 is known as the criminal Age, as the records tell us that only 2 per cent of the criminals began criminal careers after they were 16. A law now improves the environment is a difficult undertaking. The best influence should come during the first twelve years of a child's life. "There is plenty of work in a school like P. S.

Her disposition for these lags should be attractive and pleasant. The teacher should be told that she will an atmosphere where each pupil make the proper choice and thus develop a solid character." A. & M. College Is Host To Maine Governor's Party Tallahassee, Fla., Governor R. W. Brewster of Maine, leader of the Maine-to Florida Party, visited the A. and M. College recently. The Governor of Maine had been invited to Florida with a group of Maine citizens to inspect the economic, commercial, and financial facilities of the state. Four Brewster automobiles led 94 cars carrying the Maine delegation escorted by a committee of 250 citizens from Tallahassee. The party was directed by special guides along a course that carried them around the campus and by the school farm. The beauty of the landscape and planted fields made a vivid impression upon Governor Brewster, and his party, many of them were surprised by the growth upon the college farm the year after. Returning from the drive, Governor and Mra. Brewster were met upon the school lawn by J. R. E. Lee, president of the College. The girls and boys of the school were assembled in military formation ready to march to the chapel led by a band of 30 pieces. The distinguished visitors and had the students sing melodies requested by Governor Brewster. Governor Martin was absent, having been called to Jeksonville because of the illness of Mrs. Martin. Governor Martin's Strum of the Supreme Court represents Governor welcoming the visitors, and he introduced Governor Brewer. Before speaking, Governor Brewer was greeted with the "Hymn of Maine," sung by the entire assemblage. Brewer said: "I am very grateful to you for simping those songs of home and I shall carry back with me the fondest memories of your hospitality, and courtesy. Those wonderful melodies sung by your school and glee clubs are the most beautiful and the most enjoyable had the opportunity to hear. We who from the far eastern state thank you most heartily for the inspiration they have given us. When I was in college, continued Governor Martin "I was the pleasure of talking with that outstanding character. Booker T. Washington. From him I gained his dreams and ambitions for his race, and now, after many years, I see here in Florida the dream of that man being realized. can see the in-turning out men and women who will be of greater service to marking. "Florida is enjoying an era of prosperity in her commercial growth and it is with pleasure that I observe the State is doing her utmost to give her citizens the best possible education."

I would not without it. It seemed to clean up my system and made me feel less. I would take a few doses—get rid of the bile and have my clear head, feel full of pep, and could do twice the Billous attacks are “seasonal” with many people.

Preparatory THINGS SEEN, HEARD AND DONE AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYES This commentary was not professionally conversant with all the various branches, ethics, and precepts of contemporary journalism, hence he is poorly qualified to say in what wax and in which manner these things should be observed by the journalist. On the other hand, and from his limited conception of this art, it has been his idea that one of the paramount virtues of a journalist is his ability not to oversteep the bounds of good taste and propriety, whether his comments were upon the actions of a friend, or whether they were upon those of an enemy. The Chicago Wipf appeared to have overstepped these bounds recently. In its issue of February 20, "Under the Lash of the Whip" column, it made comments, which in part were entirely irrelevant to the activities of certain men, who are endeavoring to unilize the Pullman porters. The particular comment that struck this correspondent as being out of place was this: "The paid disturbers of the Pullman porters are using the porters' money to ride over the country on limited trains, wearing spats, stopping at exclusive hotels, eating the fat of the land; while the porters are working like trojans to make ends meet." Now it is not that this column is particularly interested in the activities of the gentlemen to whom this comment referred, nor has it any inclination to defend the particular person at whom that editorial brick was indirectly thrown; for that gentleman is somewhat of a brick thrower himself, and he is skillful at it too. But, from an impersonal point of view, this sort of editorial observation seems to be an unwarranted attack on the purely personal habits and rights of the individual. (Although, this is not an isolated case. If memory serves me right, it was this same gentleman's magazine which made a sarcastic comment last spring about the epicurean taste of a well-known officer of the N. A. A. C. P.) That, of course, is neither here nor there so far as this case is concerned, the point the writer is trying to bring out is that The Whip could well left out the food and raiment part of his comments. The journalist that editorially comments on what a man eats, drinks and wears, unless it is proven that the man does these things immorally, descends to simon-pure black guardism. And these men certainly cannot be accused of being immoral merely, because they ride on fast trains, stop at decent hotels and have predilection for spats. Now in so far as the porters working like Trojans to meet both ends and then giving it to them men are concerned,—do not believe that, Mr. Editor. Negro men are only enthused about one sort of association; and that is the fraternal kind; the kind that has to do with secrecy and metaphors. These porters are not pauperizing themselves for any labor movement. No since! MONEY $$ MONEY We lend MONEY on household furniture, automobiles, machinery.
