Kip Rhinelander
Denied New Trial
Mrs. Rhinelander's Lawyer
Allowed $12,000 Counsel
Fees—Wife To Sue
The case of Leonard Kip Rhinelander against his Negro wife failed again Thursday, March 25, when Supreme Court Justice Morschauser in Poughkeepsie denied him a new trial. Also the Justice awarded to Lee Parsons Davis, Mrs. Rhinelander's counsel, are additional $12,000. In her defense, which she said was a money he made, the attorney, announced he will appeal to the Appellate Division within thirty days on the ground that the jury's verdict was against the weight of the evidence and that the Justice made several errors. Justice Morschauser denied the plaintiff's marriage amendment plea last December when the jury found Alice Jones had not deceived Rhinelander as to her color before he married her.
For appeal counsel will have to print more than 1000 pages of testimony and exhibits, including int' love letters. Neither Rhinelander nor his wife was in court. He was last reported in Ocean Springs Miss, and she is living in New Rochelle. Mrs Rhinelander's suit for separation the office of Mr. Davis said probably will be instituted soon. She will seek an increase in her alimony now $300 a month. The two words, Motious dened constituted Justice Morechauser's decision on the volume nous briefs. He has memorandum on Mr. Davis ter he said. Plaintiff's course is the leader the Westchester County bar. His years of experience make him a most formidable adversary. He learning and ability long succeeded by bench and has displayed themselves all their fitness throughout the trial. The learned counsel for the defendant was well aware of all this and recognized who was against him. His services were long and ardous. He asks for $2,000. I believe $12,000 is the proper sum. However it is understood Mr. Moll will appeal from the extra allowance

Harten Leads Group of 500 to Borough Hall In Protest Against Delay In Case Of Policeman Who Assaulted 2 Women
Learns That Evidence In Case Was Being Given To Grand Jury and Advises People To Go HomeMass Meeting Had Been Held Sunday Night At Holy Trinity
Disturbed at the apparent apathy of Brooklyn law officials in the matter of bringing Policeman Thomas McAuliffe of the 37th Precinct to trial on two charges of felonious assault based on his attack on Mrs. Estella Benson of 1723 Dean street. Brooklyn, on Thursday, March 4, a group of 500 men and women, led by the Rev. Dr. Thomas S. Harten, pastor of Holy Trinity Baptist Church, made a pilgrimage to the plaza facing Brooklyn's Borough Hall, bearing banners and placards with inscriptions demanding justice and a square deal.
McAuliffe is charged with having knocked down, kicked and beaten Mrs. Benson after she had indignantly refused to accept his invitation to enter his automobile and go out "for a good time." Miss Cefia Thouge, of Bria Lites premise, went to the court.
Mrs. Benson, was also punished and beaten, and her glasses broken. Both women swore out warrants and the policeman was held by Magistrate Mortimer Brown in Gates Avenue Court in $3,500 bonds for the ground jury.

Hold Big Mass Meeting.
Delay in action by the grand jury was criticised and condemned by the Rev Dr Harten and other speakers at a meeting held at Holy Trinity Church on Sunday evening, last, and the demonstration on Monday followed as an expression of the people's demand for action.
The most conscientious banner bore the comparative challenge:
"POLICEMAN MCAULIFF ATTACKS WOMAN, TWO DOLLORED MEN IN KENTUCKY AND DELAWARE TRIED AND SENTENCED TO BE BARRED IN THIRTEEN MINUTES FOR SIMILAR CRIMES."
When Dr Harten led his people in procession around the Borough Hall, a police sergeant came up and asked if a permit to parade had been gotten. This formality had been overlooked, it appeared, so the police interfered with further demonstration of that kind.
Grand Jury Hearing Evidence
In the meantime, it is reported, an official conveyed the information to Mr Harten that evidence against Pohrman McAuliffe was at that moment presented to the grand jury, and that as a matter of fact, there had been no indictive deposition in the case. Following this, the group was dismissed by the minister and advised that another meeting would be held in the evening at Holy Trinity Church. W Monroe Trotter secretary of the National Equal Rights League, under whose auspices, through the local branch the meeting and demonstration were held was with Mr Harten and his people. Congressman Emmanuel Celler was at the Sunday night meeting delivering an address and promising his assistance. A committee appointed at the meeting was imposed of Dr Harten the Rev J B Adams, the Rev L S Brown Thom's Mann, R A Austin Dr F W Willis, W L Luther and Mrs L J Johnson.
The police on duty were inlined to be resentful of the gathering when they learned its object, but no overt acts on their part were reported, further than their insistence that all who were concerned should keep moving.

He was in "Y" work in Siberia during the war and since has been an educational work in Japan. He comes from strong. Quaker stock.

The young women are entering into inter-collegiate Activities and are making a good team." "The university is to realize the growth and development that seems just before it, a large building program must be entered upon. There is need for a music building, an educational building, a girls gymnasium, a sports hall, and a "Taking all things into consideration prospects are bright for the future of Fisk."

So surprised she, was given a truppo. and Caldwell passed sentence that she, almost justified.
Fred R. Moose, who has been interested in the case from the first, with Assemblyman Abraham Grenthale made a plea, on behalf of the young man, to the judge that the sequence, at first imposed as six months, was charged to three months, with an allowance of four days for the time that Douglas spent in prison when first arrested, Mrs. Douglas had gone before juries, and her story that she had become intimate with Dr. Cheney, following the death of her husband, on the doctor's promise to marry her, had been beneficial to her. The insurance money, from the government following her husband's death and alleged that she had loaned $600 to Dr. Cheney! She said for the return-of- $600 to the Department of Justice a verdict for the full amount with ransom.
The other charge, that of felonious assault on the doctor, was dismissed after a trial before a jury in General Sessions Court. In this trial it was brought out that at the time of the trouble Mrs. Douglas was in a delicacy with Dr. Chase. Their relations with Dr. Chase resulted in the tortor, it is alleged had boasted that the would send her to jail for the charges she had made against him.
According to her attorney, Asseb-
blyman Abraham Grenthal, and the
judges at the trial the real reason for
imposing a prison sentence instead of
a fine in this case was because of the
revolent crime wave in New York.
There have been so many holdings
and robberies recently that severe
punishment is being meted out to any-
one caught with a loaded revolver.

Harlem Merchants Get Court Summons After Overcharging Trades
Mrs. A. Hyland, of 103 West 141st street, is one of the Harlem house-pilers who have on numerous occasions been the victims of overcharging butchers and grocerymen in Harlem. Last week she made a complaint to the Department of Weights and Measures and that department sent Mrs. Powers, an inspectress, to go shopping with her.
They visited the White Star Market on Seventh avenue, near 193th street, and made a purchase of a chicken. The butcher charged Mrs. Hyland $1.18 but after her companion had shown her badge and demanded that the chicken be re-welled, it was discovered that the correct charge should have been 88 cents. He was given a summons to appear in the 12th District Magistrates Court the next day. A visit was then made to several of the Eighth avenue markets. One of the businesses, the United Mark of 271 Eighth Avenue, made charge of $1.28 cents for a chicken which should have cost 98 cents. The propriator of this establishment was also given a summons. The other place, the Full Value Market of 2658 Eighth avenue, made an overcharge of only three cents but also received a summons.
The cases will be tried in the Heights Court this week
Mrs. Hyland is organizing housewives of the neighborhood to no avail in the purpose of fighting shortweights and overcharges by Harlem butchers and grocers.
The Citizens' Forum
On Sunday, March 28, the Citizen's Forum's program was interesting and helpful to all who attended. Rev. Marshall L. Shepard, assistant pastor of Abyssinian Baptist Church, delivered an inspiring address. His subject was "Running Wild." The topic "What Part Must Woman Play in the Modern World" was generally discussed. Topic was introduced by Mrs. Charles A Butler, who also presided.
Musical numbers were rendered by A. E. Nixon's Choral Group, B. F. Vaughn led the community singing, with Miss Bernice Porter at the piano
The Citizens' Forum meets every Sunday at 3:20 o'clock at Public School 136, St. Nicholas avenue and 135th street.
The complicacy and satisfaction of the Harlem bootlegging fraternity and "mimber" hanker of collectors, ners, and others of that life will be rudely shaken within the next few days, according to advance rumors of projected activity by both federal and city law, enforcement agencies.
Although it appears on the surface that the law violators are wantonly and deliberately ignoring the statutes of the land, as is evidenced by the continual increase in the number of such resorts, several new ones being opened up each week in Harlem, The Age is receipt of what bears the appearance of a definite drive is forming against several of the most notorious joints in this community and that their doors will soon be closed.
Bandit Hangouts.
Recent arrests by city police of notorious handgits gangs disclosed the fact that in both the downtown and Harlem sections these gangs have made the hooch joints, cabarets and night clubs their rendezvous, spending money freely, and being given a corral welcome because of that, and finding in them more ample and interesting opportunity for the planning of their illegal activities. And it was also brought out that in these resorts, the thieves were offered an opportunity to "spot" likely victims who sported large sums of money and valuable jewels.
The three main Harlem avenues—Lenox, Seventh and Eighth—are the localities in which the bootleggers are most active, especially the poor, and these through-faiths. Seventh avenue particularly, furnish the choicest and most desirable residential and business facilities of the community.
A. F. of L. Council Asked To Aid Negro Workers With Unions
Washington, D. C.-The Executive Council of the American Federation of Labor was urged by T. Arnold Hill, director of Industrial Relations of the National Urban League, "to remove the color restrictions in organized labor."
Rienzi B. Lemus, president of the Brotherhood of Dining Car Employees, appeared with the Hill and gave vigorous support to the proposition. Contending that Negro plumbers, machinists, boiler-makers and other craftsmen were "barred from employment because they are not American," he denounced as non-American, undemocratic, and un-economic, the policy deying full rights to all wage-canners because of race or color."
The appointment of a colored executive as representative of the A. F. of L. to the Board of Trustees in that refuse membership to Negroes was urged and the council promised to give the matter serious consideration.

Catholic Church To Proselyte For Negro Members in The South
(Coined From First Page)
really it was against centralization of government and for state rights that the South fought, and not at all for the Negro, and not at all for the contrary, for all over the South, the dawn was breaking and an enlightened conscience, stood strongly opposed to slavery as an Institution.
"But with the close of the war be
supplied South toward the colored people.
"Here it is that the problem really starts. The colored people were no longer slaves, though they still remained servants. The old order had passed away, and with the new order they became a 'people' to be more or less reckoned with, for the law gave them rights which they had not had in the past and which were not a part of their heritage. Into the Constitution there had been written certain American epigraphs to the whites and yet there they were and they had to be recognized if only after a fashion. For their labor colored people could now command They began to acquire their own little plots of ground, their own little homes.
"That the temporal welfare of the colored people in the South is slowly adjusting itself, may be truly said. But that this adjustment, is being sympathetically and understandingly directed, certainly cannot be said.
Their Spiritual Welfare
"But be: that as it may. There is something that I think should be far better adjusted, and that is the spiritual welfare of the colored people. For there, after all, lies the solution of every ill. Back of all and underlying all is the spiritual nature of man and this it is that is the true "fundamentum," that great, broad, underlying foundation, on which we must build if we would achieve a true and lasting success.
"To ignore this is to assure failure in arriving, at a happy answer to this peeling question of the colored people. Just here lies the fallacy of many so-called solutions of the subject. Ignoring the spiritual nature of the individual, many racial authorities base their entire theory on a system of philosophy which considers men merely as tools for creation, with gradations within the species. In this gradation, they do not hesitate to speak of the colored people as "subhuman."
"Opposed to this, we have the clear and ringing Encyclical of Pope Pius XI, in which he declares that the belief that the dark skinned races are inferior to the white is a mistaken one, says that long experience has leaves the white terminated inferior, can compete with the white races in mental acumen. If', writes the Holy Father, 'there are found men who seem slow to learn, this is explainable by the conditions of their life, of which the restricted needs do not allow them, to make large use of their intelligenceA
"This Encyclical is merely the restatement of the attitude of the Catholic Church, based on the teaching of Catholic philosophy, which recognizes that between the most exalted citizen and the most humble, there is a natural, if invisible, bond of kinship that cannot be broken. Between the most intellectual and the least intellectual, there can be a bond of kinship. For all are brothers of one common family, the human race. And it is not sufficient to offer them the bread of charity, but we must also assist them with charity of conduct, of feeling of action. "So it is that the Catholic Church holds the answer to this as to every question that troubles and puzzles the mind of man. Here is the perfect equipment for the solution of all matters. Here is the one great source of strength and energy during the period of adjustment, which they now, and must yet, face.
"As the divine instrument of a divine dispensation, the Catholic Church alone is able to comprehend the desires and cravings of human nature—to satisfy the longings and the aspirations of the human heart. Hence it is that the Catholic Church holds for the colored people that which particularly corresponds to their nature
Race Is Naturally Religious
"That nature is naturally religious Possessed of many fine qualities, they have a certain racial gentleness, a fineness, if I may call it such, that makes them easy going and more than apt to be tolerant. It is not at
Chism's Auto Runs Amuck Injuring Woman and Boy

Mrs. Lovett was standing in front of her home talking to a friend, when an automobile, driven by Frank Chusholm of Brooklyn, ran into a taxi and swung up on the sidewalk. His car knocked Mrs. Lovett into an areaway. Edward Milton was on a bicycle and was also in the path of the automobile driven by Chusholm which was badly hurt. The Milton boy, suffering from fright while Mrs. Lovett was fighting from bruise and shock
Cotton Production On Increase In Africa
Washington. The wonderful development of the cotton producing industry in Africa has been called to the attention of the American public. It is a longer, firmer, stronger, and a better seller than anything raised in America outside of the Sea Islands. He visualizes the possibility of a million bales being thrown on market and sees the future of the American cotton planter with the greatest concern.
"Essentially, they believe, education and it, would amaze you to head of the progress, economically, that they are making in the South—they thrill, their industry, their sayings, their sacrifice that their children may see education. That this sacrifice, is not a sacrifice, is a school, college and university bear witness. In business and professional life, the colored man of today is playing, his part, and with credit to himself and his race. His patronage is unquestioned, for in the Warehouse he has with his white brothers. Surely these are the necessary qualities of good citizenship.
'The Catholic Church holds that which corresponds to their nature. We are all of us children spiritually, no matter how far we may advance in our faith, we cannot accomplish it, ye cannot enter the Kingdom of Heaven.'
Symbolic of Mysticism
"Thus it is that the Catholic Church makes use of sybbolism of mysticism. Thus it is that she takes beauty and effectiveness, no matter from where, and uses them to teach the, great truths of religion to her children. All of this to help us in our spiritual progress.
"The birthright of the colored people is essentially a sense of rhythm, a love of color, warmth, mysticism, symbolism, combined with a moat-wild imagination. And since the colored people, love of color, did the colored people, love of color, imagination, the church offers the appeal to the imagination.
"The Catholic Church is adapted to the wants of all; to the high and the low, to the rich and the poor. In her, the greatest as well as the humble intellect can find that which answers to its needs. From her foundation all can think and write. That is what that the Catholic Church, holding that which answers to the spiritual wants of all mankind, holds also that which answers to the spiritual wants of the colored people. "To those who seek courage, encouragement, strength, the church stands ever ready with out-stretched arms. This it is that the colored people beginning force, that teaches patience and gives them comfort and strength in the teaching.
"From out a sombre background of only a few short years, the colored people emerged. And so they need to an even greater extent the strength of their faith. Catholic Church can and will give them in the struggle that they are facing and must yet face. A struggling people ever feel, no matter how vaguely, a great yearning for some Higher Power on which to teach Isaiah. The power of the Gospel is the power for the Land of Promise is the symbol of all this.
Negro Spirituals a Cry
"So it is that in the heart of the colored people, there is a reaching out after the things of the spirit, all of which found expression in the old Spirituals, handed down from a source now lost in the mists of the past. Mystical, filled with a steadfast and abiding faith, they are the art of an anguished people.
"Roland Hayes made his first great success here in Boston singing these old melodies, which are sweeping the country with their fine distinction of beauty and wild feathery. One of these seems to me to express most particularly this city of the colored people for spiritual help and comfort:
"Go down, Moses,
Way down in Egypt Land.
Tell Ole Pharaoh
Let my people go
Hell am a dark and desmal place,
Let my people go
Them that goes there don't serve no grace.
Let my people go
Here indeed is the cry of a people with a vivid sense of things spiritual, of the reality of things spiritual, in whose hearts is a great longing to attain that reality. Whose hands are uplifted in the endeavor to lay hold of the truth of God, delivered His people Israel from the land of bondage, so must God's Church now deliver the colored people in the hour of their need."
Mrs. Hunton Tells of Recent Trip To Haiti
(Continued From First Page)
another member, visited the prison where the political prisoners were confined, and interviewed two of the editors held without trial as a preventive measure against sedition utterly baffled the editor of the Haitian Courier, the organ of National Independence. This editor has been imprisoned so often for his reiterated protests against the American occupation and President Borno, that he accepted his confinement with the utmost philosophy. Recent reports, however, state that his paper has been suppressed and its plant destroyed. For a long time its sale was forbidden and its vendors were arrested on the streets of Port-au-Prince but the law among Independence Belge, it continued to appear. The prison was described as remarkably clean for such an institution and the jailer was so amenable to win the goodwill of his charges.
The group of American visitors were accorded formal audiences by High Commissioner Russell and by President Borno, both of whom recounted the achievements made under American auspices. No social courtesies were extended the party by the American official however but not on two occasions. On the other hand, the Haitians of high and low degree opened their homes to the visitors and made them welcome in every way possible. The Haitian people were described as peasants who till the soil and cause the crops of coffee and vegetables for the market. While the upper class have had the advantages of education and nothing has been done for the masses. Hence illiteracy is prevalent among the country people, although rural schools have been start
education change, this condition. The educational system started by Americans has the disadvantage of a being added to the needs of the people who are essentially French in their origin and temperament. Hence but little progress is noted. The salaries paid the native teachers are do inadequate as to fall to attract the better class of Halians, the higher paid positions, being occupied by white Americans.
This practice of spending the funds raised by Haitian taxes on American projects, instead of developing Haitian institutions, was observed in the master of health and sanitation. The Haitian hospital with modern equipment, while the hospital founded under Haitian auspices years ago, is sadly in need of funds for renovation and new appliances. The Haitian physicians are allowed no share in the development of medical science under Haitian auspices, knowledge and experience with climate diseases being ignored as of no value.
While, considerable has been said about public improvements made under the American occupation, the visitors found but few visible evidences of these claims. Goods roads were one of the improvements cited, but on an excursion to Cape Haitian some of the visitors were marooned and used to drive the roads becoming impassable after a rain storm. The Haitian view is that most of the money raised by loans or taxation is flattered away in the cost of administration. Many of the marines whose term of enlistment has expired, have been appointed to places under the civil government for which they have neither training nor capacity. One ex-marine named Perelwyn known as Monsieur Perrilwyn who married President Bormo, now holds an important position in the department of public instruction.
While there is superficial tranquility in Haiti at present there is no peace in the hearts of the people. While individual Haitians differ as to whether the American occupation should be summarily ended or dissolved by degrees, all are agreed that self-government must be restored to the republic. The only exceptions to the sentiments are found in President BORCE and his state, for they realize that with the rest of the American forces which hold them in office, their government must fall.
An incident revealing the character of the government imposed upon Haiti by the American occupations was noted soon after the party areived. Their conducter called excitedly at their hotel one evening and begged them to follow him to a cafe. Here they found two American marines in a brawl, cutting each other with knives, while members of the native gendarmere stood helplessly by unable to stop the carriage, because the American occupation is that a national government may not arrest a white man. Hened white marines or officers had to be sent for to stop the fight
Mrs. Hunfun stated that she had in her possession a letter from M, Belgarde, the representative of Haiti in the League of Nations and the foremost statesman of the republic, in which he repudiated in the strongest manner government was opposed to the appointment of a colored American as minister to that country. If any such intimation had been made by the present government, it was due solely to the influence of the American government, to control internal and external affairs to suit their own purposes.
At the completion of Mrs. Hunton's remarks, Mr. Percival Th呼i, former secretary of the Haitian Legation at Washington, and now representing the Patriotic Union of Haiti, spoke of the financial condition of Haiti, and the move to peasant proprietorship involved in the revision of land titles. During the past 411 years previous to the American occupation Haiti had borne about thirteen million dollars. Under American control a debt of forty million dollars has been saddled with the cost of meeting interest and sinking fund requirements. Bankruptcy for the island was predicted as the inevitable outcome of the American policy. The revision of land titles was declared to be a device to oust the present occupants of the island and generate, in order to grant concessions to American capitalists and exploit the natives as laborers.
The meeting was held under the auspices of the Circle for Peace and Foreign Relations of which Mrs Hunton is the主席. Mrs Pickens, presiding Dr W E B DuLois, editor of the Crash, introduced the speaker of the evening Prof Lyndon Caldwell contributed a selection on the piano.

The United States Department of Labor, through the Children's Bureau, is extensively engaged in doing welfare work in the various States, under the provisions of the Sheppard-Towner Act, passed by Congress in 1921. This act appropriated not more than $1,240,000 per year of Federal funds to be expended in those states which furnished an equal amount for the purpose of improvie the health of mothers and babies. The act forbids any direct payments to mothers and generally restricts the aid given to educational work. This includes child health conferences, prenatal conferences, mothers clubs, little mothers leagues, prenatal letters, mothers' correspondence courses and midwife classes. There are also lectures, talks, exhibits and motion pictures on health subjects.
This beneficent invasion of State rights has been gladly accepted by forty-three states, in which some or all of the activities enumerated are being carried on for mothers of every race and nationality. A few of the states have declined to accept government aid in this matter, preferring to retain full responsibility for the care of their citizens at the expense of the state. The intervention of the Federal government to protect the health of its citizens is an attempt to solve a situation, which concerns very closely the Negro race, especially in the South where the states have been derelict in such work.
According to a statement put out by the Children's Bureau, in 1920, the year before the act was passed, the maternal mortality rate in the United States was 8.0 per 1,000 live births, a rate higher than that for any other civilized country except Chile. That same year our infant mortality rate was 86 per 1,000 live births. In other words, almost 20,000 mothers and about 200,000 babies were dying each year in this country, many of them from preventable causes. Bad as the rates were for all mothers and babies they were worse for Negro mothers and babies. The Negro maternal mortality rate in 1920 was 128 and the infant mortality rate in that same year was 132
The statement continued
The Children's Bureau studied 23,000 babies born in 8 American cities during the years 1911-1916. About 1,500 of these babies were colored. The infant mortality rate for the white babies was 108, but the rate for the colored babies was 154. Moreover, it was found that colored rates were higher than white particularly for deaths caused by conditions which may be changed. For instance, almost three times as many colored babies died from epidemic diseases as white babies. About two and a half times as many colored babies as white babies died from respiratory diseases. Both these groups of diseases depend largely upon living conditions and can be controlled through education of mothers, and through public health measures by the community. was also found that many more colored babies died from what are known as "diseases of early infancy." These diseases are usually due to lack of good care for the mother during pregnancy and confinement and the death rate from these diseases will drop when mothers know how important it is to get good care before and during the birth of their babies.
Emphasis was laid upon one or two activities, having special interest for the Negro mother, one of which is the midwife situation.
The United States Census listed only about 5,000 midwives in the entire country. Through a questionnaire sent out to State boards of health the Children's Bureau discovered that in 10 States there were 26,000 midwives authorized to practice and about 20,000 more estimated to be practicing but not registered. It was found that midwives were most numerous and attended most births in the Southern States. In Alabama North Carolina and Virginia for instance one out of every 1 births was attended by a midwife. In Florida the proportion was even greater in Louisiana and Mississippi nearly half the entire number of births in the State were attended by midwives.
Since such a large proportion of mothers have to depend upon the midwife for help during coninement it has been considered an important part of the Sheppard Tower Net in many of the States to study midwives to find out what their qualifications were and then to teach supervise and license them. Dr Ionia R Whippar a Negro physician on the staff of the Maternity and Infancy Division of the Children's Bureau, has cooperated on midwife demonstrations in several of the Southern States. In States where large numbers of midwives were found definite campaigns to teach the midwives the elementary principles of safe care for mothers and babies have been undertaken. In a number of cases this work was done by Negro nurses. The result of the work has been thus far to eliminate some of the oldest and least capable of the grannies" as they often call themselves and to make quite marvelous changes in the cleanliness and practices of the younger women.
Another phase of the work carried on un-
der provisions of the Shepard-Towner Act and with the help of Federal money was illustrated by a demonstration in Cincinnati, Ohio, which ended last June. This was confined entirely to the colored population of the city and was intended to show what could be done to lower infant and maternal death rates. Five colored nurses devoted all of their time to colored people, two-fifths of their work being directed toward education in maternal and infant hygiene. The demonstration began late in 1923. A list of all babies born that year, formed the startling point for home visits. Within a very short time after the birth had been recorded the nurses were in touch with the home. Working in cooperation with private physicians, the nurses, visited babies and preschool children, instructed mothers, and whenever possible found prenatal cases and gave help to the expectant mother. Two health centers were established where many children came for physical examination, advice, and observation.
The period of the demonstration—only a little over a year—was too short to show marked results in mortality figures, but it is significant that there were only six deaths among all the children under observation at the health centers and that Cincinnati received the first prize for the best observance of Negro health week during 1924. The results so far observed under the Sheppard-Towner Act are held by its promoters and those carrying out its provisions to more than justify the intervention of the Federal government to care for the health and lives of its citizens, before birth as well as after. It may constitute a precedent for further progress in this direction.
IN THE FRENCH DICTIONARY.
A cablegram from Paris by the Associated Press, a few weeks ago, brought the news that America had made an important contribution to French literature. So surprising was this contribution that we reproduce the cablegram below:
A cablegram from Paris by the Associated Press, as few weeks ago, brought the news that America had made an important contribution to French literature. So surprising was this contribution that we reproduce the cablegram below:
Lynch law has just furnished the French language with two new words, which the committee revising the dictionary on the French Academy has officially admitted into good usage. These words are lyncher, a verb and lynchage, a noun, derived from the verb. Lyncher is defined as to kill without trial, from what the Anglo-Saxon calls lynch law, lo de talcon, and lynchage as the acton of lynching or the results of such action.
A few Negroes in the United States are inclined to take the view that this action by a committee of the French Academy was a gross mistake, a direct insult to all black Frenchmen and a measure that will disturb the peace of mind of colored Americans. We do not agree with this view of the matter. Ignorance is no safeguard against any form of evil. It is better that the French people should have the equivalents for lynch and lynching in their dictionary and realize their meaning as an American practice than to be in ignorance of what is meant by the terms. In fact, the new words should be illustrated by cuts showing a burning at the stake or a body suspended from a railroad bridge or church spire. That would give the French a better idea of the innate arbidity of the arime.
English and American vocabularies are inebted to Ireland for the term boycot, which was derived from the efforts of the downrodden peasants to force out unpapular landlords, so why not allow the American contribution to criminal terminology admission to foreign tongues France need not adopt the practice because the word is in the dictionary. It should only give French men greater facility in reprobating an american idiosyncracy. Latin-American papers in reporting lynching in the United States do not hesitate to use the verb to lynch in the absence of a Spanish equivalent.

CRIPPLING A UNIVERSITY.
In an editorial in last week's issue of The Age, reference was made to a suggestion that the board of trustees of Lincoln University would be in a better position to serve the interests of the race, if the alumni were represented on that board. That suggestion was rejected by the board, some three months ago, as appears by a letter signed by Secretary John W. Liberton and addressed to Dr E. P. Roberts president of the Lincoln University Alumni Association of New York City. In order to make clear the attitude of the trustees, we reproduce the letter below
In an editorial in last week's issue of The Age, reference was made to a suggestion that the board of trustees of Lincoln University would be in a better position to serve the interests of the race, if the alumni were represented on that board. That suggestion was rejected by the board, some three months ago, as appears by a letter signed by Secretary John W. Liberton and addressed to Dr. E. P. Roberts president of the Lincoln University Alumni Association of New York City. In order to make clear the attitude of the trustees, we reproduce the letter below
At a meeting of the Board of Trustees, held December 15th, 1925, the following preamble and resolution were adopted
"The Trustees of Lincoln University have been in the years how past and are today, single-minded in their desire for the welfare and renowned of that University. They have sought eagerly all things which would be conducive to the growth and improvement of the institution, and are jealous for its proper fame.
"The Trustees are deeply appreciative of the loyalty of the alumni of Lincoln University, and are not at all unmindful of the wholly natural desire of the alumni for a voice in the Government of the University (Objection). The Trustees would be glad if they could feel it for the best interest of the University to accede to this desire. They regret sincerely that they cannot feel such action to be wise. They have gave most services consideration to the matter during man's months before arriving at a decision.
"At a meeting of the Board held December
15th. It was unanimous that the Board of Trustees of
RESOLVED: That the Board of Trustees of
Lincoln University are unitedly agreed that it is for the past interest of all concerned that the policy in regard to the constitution of the Board of Trustees, which has always been maintained at Lincoln University, shall be continued". Divested of all camouflage and perfunctory expressions of regret, this attitude taken by the trustees is equivalent to a confession that Lincoln University has failed in its main purpose of training Negro students for future usefulness as leaders in the progress of their race. Technical training as ministers, or physicians, or lawyers, is only a detail of the main purpose of such an institution as Lincoln. The main purpose should be to turn out men fully equipped to lead and represent the race in all departments of human progress.
During the past forty years of its existence Lincoln University has turned, out an army of outstanding graduates who have won high rank in the various professions. The University has never hesitated to appeal to these graduates for financial aid and they have always responded to its appeal. They have achieved high standing in the communities where they have settled and have become leaders in all good works. It is a reflection on the standing of these sons of Lincoln, as well as upon the work of the university itself, if none of them are deemed worthy of a part in the government of that institution.
The harmful attitude taken by the Lincoln trustees goes further than this. It tends to discredit the progress of the race during the past fifty years and is bound to arouse resentment among its members generally, regardless of the fact of whether they attended the university or not. The action taken by the board of trustees is bound to cripple the usefulness of Lincoln University. There is undoubtedly sufficient broadmindedness in the Presbyterian Church, under the auspices of which the university is conducted, to endow the trustees with a broader vision and a higher sense of their responsibilities.
AIMS OF WOMEN "Y" WORKERS
AIMS OF WOMEN "Y" WORKERS. The report of the Findings Committee of the Y. W C. A. Leaders' Conference, held in Cincinnati, the last part of February, showed careful consideration of the needs of the work. The value of discussion was recognized as leading to cooperation and understanding throughout the Association. There were nine cities represented in the meeting, the others outside of Cincinnati being Columbus, Springfield, Dayton, Youngstown, Ohio; Pittsburgh, Ea.; Indianapolis, Ind; Louisville and Lexington, Ky.

There were nine cities represented in the meeting, the others outside of Cincinnati being Columbus, Springfield, Dayton, Young Town, Ohio; Pittsburgh, Ea.; Indianapolis; Louisville and Lexington, Ky.
The meaning of association membership was based on the keynote of the philosophy of the organization, that as a branch "we are the Association." This conception was generally considered ideal, although it was considered that in many branches the ideal is not possible at present. Nevertheless, the leave was held that the ideal should be presented and every effort be made to realize it. The Interracial or Race Relations committee was found to be of value in matters, as bringing about a better understanding between colored and white citizens of the community. It was suggested that there should be branch representation of city committees and joint meetings of the branch and central association.
Conferences and conventions were approved of as meeting a real need in the life of the association secretaries and volunteer workers, in that they tended to develop leadership and self-expression. The Frankfort conference was considered a device for the development of more specific leadership among our group and for a more detailed study of the association movement. The national policy of attendance at Northern conferences—that if delegates attend such conferences they do go as part of the citizen delegation—was generally accepted.
The question of recruiting for leadership among young women, the responsibility of secretaries and committee women and a plan for training in finance were thoroughly discussed and definite policies decided. The discussion of equipment and cooperation with other organizations led to the members of the conference going on record as "believing we should put forth every effort to retain our identity as a movement, because we believe so thoroughly in the program and policy of the organization promoting character building for women and girls."
The findings of this conference should serve as a stimulus to the growth of the organization among the women of the race.

SENATORIAL COURTESY AGAIN
The nomination of James A. Colb to fill the vacancy, caused by the death of Judge Robert H. Terrell in the Municipal Court of the District of Columbia, was duly made by President Coolidge and after a few weeks delay unanimously confirmed by the Senate of the United States. The next day after confirmation, however, the matter was reopened by a court to another matter.
The nomination of James A. Colb to fill the vacancy, caused by the death of Judge Robert H. Terrell in the Municipal Court of the District of Columbia, was duly made by President Coolidge and after a few weeks delay unanimously confirmed by the Senate of the United States. The next day after confirmation, however the matter was reopened by a unanimous vote in the Senate Pat Harrison of Mississippi. On the wellworn plan of senatorial courtesy, this action was taken for what purpose only the Senator from Mississippi could tell.
experience, and connections, Mr. Cobb's record was without flaws. For the last twenty years he has been foremost in every movement involving the civic interests of the colored people of the district. In 1897 he was appointed by Attorney General Bonaparte as a special assistant and was assigned to the United States Attorney's office for the District of Columbia, having special charge of pure food prosecution, naturalization and forfeited bonds. Later revenue cases were added to his duties. In 1915 he resigned and resumed general practice. He has served as counsel for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People at Washington, trial attorney for the Knights of Pythias, attorney for Howard University and other local corporations.
There does not appear to be any legitimate excuse for the reconsideration requested by Senator Harrison, and undoubtedly after the requirements, of senatorial courtesy have been satisfied, the confirmation will be made permanent. As we said a few weeks ago, in referring to the nomination, "The main point would appear to be Mr. Cobb's fitness for the position from the standpoint of character and ability. This being conceded, his nomination should be approved." Of course, we can understand that Senator Pat Harrison might consider himself derelict in his duty to his Mississippi constituents unless he opposed the confirmation on general principles. It was this same excuse of senatorial courtesy that was invoked to delay, if not to defeat, the nomination of Walter Cohen as controller of customs at New Orleans. Through the firmness and persistency of President Coolidge in pressing the nomination, the purpose of the Louisiana Senators was defeated.

Bro Jackson, who is a member of Monarch Indge but a real and true Filk should be asked why he gave the printing to a public Nordrinder printer instead of to an Auto American can. Monarch Indge real real organization on any issue and proposition and spends more money widely to prove the same than any local race organization of its kind in the world. It would be a grand idea of many of the grand organizations of the secret fraternities would adopt some of Monarch Indge's men's ideals and system Fraternity wears.

Said her: "The greatest calamity that ever happened to this country was the failure of the Maidower to make a round trip with her whole filipino company, for the country, is still suffering from the bigotry of the Puritans. Never am I prouder of being a Confederate than when I realize that next to Maryland my State, Kentucky, was the earliest cradle of religious liberty."
But the humorist evidenced the extent of his spirit of tolerance when he concluded his talk by saying: "As an American I am proud of the attitude of both the Catholics and Jews when the lance of hatred was aimed at the breast of every single solitary one of them."
The Negro at whom the lance of hatred is almed most, especially in that section of the country, whence Mr. Cobb hails, was not included in his plea for tolerance. Maybe the humorist's long residence in New York has failed to purge him of deep-rooted racial prejudices peculiar to those who boast of being Confederates.
No advocate of tolerance' appears in a serious and coninciting role when guilty of a sin of omission as in Mr. Cobb's case.
CHARITY ORGANIZATION
SOCIETY DRIVE.
It is the duty of Harlem Negroes to make a creditable showing in the drive for funds conducted by the Charity Organization Society, which comes to an end April 7. In the forty-four years the society has served the city's poor this is the first time in its history it has carried on a general campaign to raise money. It spends about $750,000 a year. During 1925, the office of the society at 71 East 125th street; known as "Harlem's Trouble Doctor," gave financial aid to 450 families, and 207 families were colored. Both the native and foreign-born Negro is provided for and encouraged. Nobody is turned down.
More and more an insistent demand is being made by our white friends that the Negro give proof of his interest and appreciation in charitable affairs by giving as well as receiving. It should be plain to members of the race in comfortable circumstances that the Negro cannot command the proper respect by always being on the receiving end. Let us encourage the Charity Organization Society. The giving of from a dime to a dollar by many rather than large individual contributions by a few, is the most effective method New York Negroes can employ in registering appreciation of the society's good work.
ment of approval of dancing can logically be inferred from this, for the admission of the magnitude of a task is not tantamount to saying that it is unwise to attempt it. On the contrary the very admission of the difficulty of a task or problem carries with it the silent implication that those who essay to accomplish it must be alert and active and therefore fully prepared. In this the editorial should have been interpreted as an effort to arouse our ministers to the magnitude of the problem before them and thereby enable them to be better able to cope with it. At this distance it looks as if the in-

The souvenir program placed before the public announced on its cover page that it was the souvenir program of Monarch Lodge's annual ball, the solicitation of advertisements was based upon the fact that Monarch Lodge was giving a ball, a business, to that journal did not because of the large amount of popularity that Monarch Lodge carries. Therefore, to the public mind, any criticisms to be made would be made of Monarch Lodge, all business transactions between Monarch Lodge and any private party to the contrary notwithstanding.
Just who merger Thompson took control in to inform one of the business transactions between his lodge and some private individual remains to be seen.
Sergeant Thompson states further on that Brother Jackson is not a member of Monarch Lodge, but a real and true Flik." Does any real and true person contribute to a cause or to any concerted action in opposition to all efforts that that person is making to get above a common level which forces him to remain in a condition prescribed by an oppressive class when there are chances for him to do otherwise?
Now Mr. Edison let us look into this matter from the principles of a 100 per cent race pride. When a club of men in that city, some years ago formed themselves into an Elk Lodge (Manhattan No. 15 I think) the white Elks immediately obtained an invitation to restrain these men from using the Elks' name, emblemless which was fought for years. The elks were sent to the State by the state court. Last Wheaton and Butler the state court last year sent the elks that fight and the settlement of the case does not seem to have been reached as yet. Therefore the Elks do not exist in New York State by law, but by sufferance. Perhaps you remember the fasco between Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson and Dalmus
nicious Western editor was to play on both sides of the line.
Two California judges decided the color restrictions as to the property were not valid, according to the Pacific Defender of Los Angeles. The cases cited were as follows:
Holding that the restraint was not passed by purpose of block agreement, the did not run with the land and was blinding on subsequent purchaser, Judge John P. Pullen, of Sacramento, in the Department 19 of the Superior Court of the County of Los Angeles, ordered declaration last week in favor of Mrs. A. D. Kinslow whom his friends tried to prevent from their home at 2A5 West 30th street, the exclusive Crestmore Trade.
Judge Hartley Saw recently thinned a similar suit in a case that affords twelve families living in the city by a average of what is known as the Hooper. "The defense of these families and detaken by the Equal Rights Protection Association, an organization formed to preempt home owners in that city,"
Attorney Willis O. Tyler who is a authority on the California laws regarding home ownership, handled the cases.
These legal decisions constituted another blow against the practice of residential segregation, which has cropped out in so many different localities.
The veteran editor of the Crescent Gazette held a little Thanksgiving service of his own, in which he thanked the Lord as follows:
A white Protestant bishop, Hussey, speaking in New Jersey, last week Charles Edward Russell, writing at the nation's capital; the Rt. Hosp. Snowden, speaking in England, and Nina Charlotte Anita Whitney, writing in California, the week before and Pope Francis writing in Rome, Italy, last week all against one phrase or another of fool-racial prejudice is very encouraging to say the least. May their kind continue to increase. What pleases us greatly is that this country has not had such a "shaking up" along the prejudice line for lo! these many years! It was during the Chicago World Fair years ago, that they had the very disagreeable fact driven home that a big majority of the people of the world was made up of the black, yellow and brown races to say nothing about the certain face of prejudice in America. We members with what stubborn silence the information was received throughout the country. The only things to happen since that are reminders of this Jack Johnson's victory over Jim Jeffries and "Tiger" Flowers more recent whipping of Harry Greb. How very yea "silly" is this dampfool America's prejudice. This recent outburst against it is indeed timely. Thank the Lord for it!
Color prejudice and intolerance that prove so baseless as to bring the antidotes.
Under the caption, "Always Faming the Whites," Editor Dabney in the cincinnati Union scored racial segregation as observed at an entertainment festival city he said:
Recently, we attended a basketball game and a "Charleston" dancing contest at the Armory in this city. Entering a spacious hall, we found the whites on one side, the colored on the other. The basketball ball game was beaten white and colored teams. They gave a splendid contest, marked by team throughout. The white team won was a great game and gave black women a challenging contest. There were two larger trophies to be awarded we deried why the two. We see that There was one contest for the white dancers, another for the young white men dancing against other. One received the prize for the other trophy. There was to console for the segregated dancing except the white of those who do plantation.

Grace Congregational Church
During the last week a party was given at the residence of Mrs. Catherine Booster's Club also has an augmented treasury. From the Negro String Quartette of a week ago.
Sunday morning Dr. Garner spoke in the text, "Who is this?". His answer to the query was: (1) He is a portrait of the Father. (2) He is the sum total of many excellence. (3) He was a critic of tradition. (4) He was a constructive thinker. (5) He was the possible Redeemer. (6) How do you say that He is the kind of person in triumph in to Jerusalem on Palm Sunday long ago. The sermon-was heard by a full house. The audience was reverent and eager. Theodore Gibson answered the appeal to decide for the Nazarene. He was passed over the Easter group of waiting membership. The choir-was on the job with a Palm Sunday solo by P. W. Beau and an anthem that was appropriate. The young People hold a meeting at 6:30. It is a real young people meeting to do. The young people interfere in their affair. The written did not know the names of two young Ladies who took part in the Sunday program but they were both very acceptable.
At night the pastor preached to representatives of the Second Battalion 369th Infantry, N. Y. National Guard, Major Erinlbring. The detachment was lead by Captain Lann, with Lleuca, Smith and Clarkson made appropriate addresses. The pastor Dr. Garner who is chaplain spoke to the men on the Golden Rule.

going on the death of Bishop Blackwell, they were compelled to send letters of thanks because of their inability to be baptized. As planned, Bishop D. D. Wojas, head of the Ninth Episcopal District, and a resident of Washington, D. C. preached the Palm Sunday sermon. His subject, "The Triumphant Entry" is taken from text S. M. Mark 10.12 and 34 and S. Mark 11.12, 9.11. This sermon, was the most important and the most powerful preached for the people here. He held his [litersenus spel] bound and by the eyes of faith, they could see Jesus as He entered Jerusalem, and the tumultuous strong as they surged around Him, strewing him their earthly King, but Jesus had gone there, to establish an earthly kingdom, proclaiming truth and right-encourages for all mankind.
Bishop Jones adamnished all men and women, old and young, not to forget their spiritual background. If we are to succeed, at all, it is to through the work of our religious training. The Negro, above all, should not forget the real value of prayer. Let Jesus make a triumphant entry into your heart, and sit, as King on the throne your soul. As King on the throne your soul last week on earth, and while He was conscious of this fact, it did not cause Him any alarm, as He had been sent into the world to redeem the world. At J 3 o'clock, Rev W C. Brown jof Fleet Street Memorial Church, Brooklyn, N. Y. and his people worshipped with Rush pastor and people. Dr. Brown, although not feeling his best, preached a more excellent sermon on "Fighting the Good Fight of Faith" Many good and helpful things were mentioned in this discourse. Summarized, we glanced that, in order to win, we had to define aim in view and with a determination to obtain that goal. Beautiful music was furnished by Fleet Street Choir.
Bishop Jones pokes at length on the solidarity of the Methodism and expressed himself as being very well pleased over the manner in which Dr. Brown and Dr Oliver are cooperating, and putting over the work at their respective charges. A large number of Fleet Street members accompanied their pastor at this service, and were most liberal in their financial support. Rev R M Bolden pastor of Emmanuel Church, Adam Jackson, two pastor of Rush Church, and Rev A. M. Were guests ministers to Bishop Jones and Rev Owler, during the day. The Bishop's sermon in the evening was based on the subject "Does it pay to serve the Lord in this present day." Text 1 Timothy 4. 8, Needless to say,

The church now settles down to routine work for about two weeks, when, after Easter, it will again hold another set of meetings lasting ten nights. When such meetings occur, registration to go right on, month after month, holding ten nights of meetings, the people were more than delighted, and we expect great things in the future from them.
St. Mark's M. E. Church
On Sunday, March 28, the services in m St Mark's M. E. Church were largely attended throughout the day. Palm Sunday was fittedly observed.
At the morning service, palms were distributed by the Floral Greeting Center they helped to church. So large was the attendance at this service, that standing room in the spacious lecture room was at a premium.

At 10 declock Rev. R. A. Bolden, assistant pastor preached an able and instructive sermon to the Junior Church. Rev Bolden also delivered the message to the Junior Church at the evening service.

The Sunday School was largely attended. The pupils are being rehearsed by the Chorister, Miss Minnie Brown for the special Easter services next Sunday. The services of the Epworth League were well attended and a very pleasing program rendered I. A Green was in charge. Special Easter services will be held next Sunday. A sunrise service will be held by the Junior Church at 8 o'clock Easter Sunday morning by the dining room by the Parsonage Committee, Mrs Minnie L. Dyer, president.
St. James Pres. Church
The beginning of Holy Week was intuitively observed at the St James Presbyterian Church on Palm Sunday by the blessing and distributing of palms in the vestibule to the passing throng that crowded the auditorium, balcony and channel. The waiting congregation listened attentively to the splendid music rendered by the choir and the scholarly discourse by the pastor Rev Wm Good Times, the theme on the morning sermon was taken from Psalms 74 verse 12. Filled with joy of Old. The six minute sermon to the children of the congregation which preceded the sermon was the beautiful story of the 'Palm Tree' and its growth within the Merrett baso solvent rendered. The Plims most effectively The Brotherhood assisted by the Ladies auxiliaries and 4 assisting meeting at 4 o'clock. He 12.

"The Triumph of Christ" was Dr. Tyler's theme, and his text was, Pauls 45.3 and 4, "Gird, thy sword upon thy thigh, D most Mighty, with thy glory and thy majesty. And in thy majesty ride prosperously, because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and thy right hand shall teach the terrible things."
In speaking on the text as applied to his subject - the pastor, emphasized the thought that the fact that books of the Old Testament hade directed prophecy of the coming of Christ was evidence of their writers divine inspiration. Yet all of the setting forth, or portrayals by men and angels, were unable to find a triumphs because he is winning the allegiance of men, and His kingdom is gradually extending from shore to shore, and this is being made possible because he rules with a sceptre of love. This is the proper way, for we cannot compel allegiance by force; it must be done willingly, and with prophets, seers, historians and others to reveal Himself and His purpose.
Dr Tyler touched on the Sunday School Convention at Birmingham, Alabama, and stated that the white members showed little of the Christian spirit in making no vigorous protest against the laws of the city that prohibited the two races sitting together, for in religion there is no wall or partition, as Jesus Christ has broken down these obstacles. When the love of God gets into our hearts it breaks up all prejudices, hatzeds and racial antigetics.
Dr Tyler concluded with the thought that the blessed Christ would yet have His day, because His triumph is one of truth, muckiness and righteousness.
Lewis A Shumate of 204 Johnson street joined the church. A class of thirty-four probationary members were received into full membership. Just before dismissal the vast throng was given branches of Palms. These were distributed under the supervision of the floral club. The afternoon session of the Sunday school was largely attended. Final programs were made for the Easter program. At vesper services the Allen League held a roosing meeting.
Gethsemane Commandery, No. 3 of the Knight Templars, Prince Hall, and the ladies of the Royal Court at Cyrene, were guests of the church at the evening hour of worship, at which time the forty-ninth anniversary sermon was delivered by the pastor Dr. Tyler He spoke on the subject, "The Constraining Love of Jesus Christ." The text was 20 corinthians 5.14. D. Tyler stressed the view that in church as in fraternities the church and women are for several reasons, some because their families are members, some because of the glamour and pomp. Then there are those who join because of the inwardness of the organizations. This group makes up the real membership of the organization, who are so grapped by the love of service and the love of God and man that they give their all in this service. This is because the love of Christ has gripped them and constrains them to so do. Eminent Commander J. W Lawson was master of ceremonies. Several pleasing solos were ordered by Thomas M. Mason, member of the Masons and the Court, respectively. Most imminent Grand Commander Frederick Langton, and his staff and a delegation of Knights from Manhattan were present.
Bishop J. Albert Johnson will be the attraction Sunday morning. He will deliver the Easter message. There has been large attendances at the church each evening this week to the Passion week services, which will conclude Friday night.

THE material contrast between the structures with which he (Booker T. Washington) began and the present great, ample and commodious plant is in evidence. He was a man of great intellect and encouragement as this is. it is but an imperfect measure of Dr. Washington's work and achievement. The education and annual turning out of two or three students is the most commendable and helpful work, but that was only one part of what he did and sought to do. His purpose was to radiate from a center like Tuskegee to other areas where ever living within which he taught. He for the life, for the race—WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT, Chief Justice United States Supreme Court.

Fleet St. Memorial
A. M. E. Zion Church
"The Coronation of Jesus" was this theme the Palm Sunday morning from which Dr. W. C. Brown preached. The sermon, on this occasion was in harmony with the events of this special season, depicting the historical points in the life of the Christian and a human portrayal of Christian life today, with its actions and reactions in the world of men.
Several persons united with the church at the conclusion of the sermon. Bishop W L. Lee, and Dr. F. M. Jacobs worshipped with pastor and people. At this service, the choir rendered several special selections for the occasion.
At 3 p. m. the pastor and choir with a large number of the members worked with Dr. G. Oliver and his companion, the Dr. Oliver Church in Manhattan. This is an annual visit of the Fleet street Church to Dr. Oliver and his congregation.
Passion week is being observed through the church Easter Sunday at 5 a.m. Special services will be had and special church will be sung by the choir. The Easter sermon will be preached at Easter Monday night, the Church School, and their Easter cantata, "Seven Last Words of Jesus." These young people have been giving a great deal of time to the study of the cantata and it is expected to excel any borefofore rendered. For the benefit of the Easter decorations "The Floral Club" under the direction of Mrs. Mattle Jones presented a comedy three acts, "Wives on Strike" by members of the school. It was presented and marched the applause so uninitiating given. Dr. Brown returned to the city Thursday from Philadelphia where he attended the funeral services over the remains of the late Bishop George Lincoln Blackwell.
Newman Memorial Church
An unusually large attendance greeted Rev. T. "W. Cooper as he arose to preach the morning sermon at Newman Memorial Church on Palm Sunday. His subject was the "Coronation of the King. The text was taken from Zach. 9.9. "Rejoice greatly o daughter of Zion, behold thy king cometh unto thee, he is just and having salvation, lowly and riding upon an ass and upon a colt the foal of an ass." The sermon was full of admonition found unwilling to open our heads to the evening of the spirit of our Lord and permit him to occupy the throne of our hearts. His reign should promote within a spirit of humility and of love and mercy. The Sunday School was largely attended. At 8 p.m. Dr Cooper preached again, Next Sunday (Fastr Day) the choir will sing a special Easter Service at 10 45 a.m. and Dr Cooper will preach the Easter Service and administre stamina of the Lords Supper. The Friday School will render a special Easter Service at 8 o'clock.
This will be the closing of the Conference year Rev Cooper leaves for the seat of the Conference on April 6th at Gsterie, Pa.

FOLLOWING the publication of an article In The Age by Lester A. Walton calling attention to the absence of race friction when Tiger Flowers won the middleweight boxing championship, a general discussion on this subject has ensued.
A few days later George Daley, sports editor of The New York World, reprinted parts of Mr Walton's article and generally agreed with its conclusions. Last week this discussion was continued by publication of an article in Liberty magazine, an interview with Tex Rekard, in which he gave it as his opinion that race slots would follow a championship fight for the heavyweight title between Jack Dempsey and Harry Wills.
Chairman James A. Farley of the New York Boxing Commission took sharp issue with him on this point as did many other men prominent. In apprt circles. Jack Gurley, wrestling promoter and a well known authority on boxing matters had the following to say in George Daley's column of The World recently:
ANOTHER VIEW ON MIXED BOUTS
"Ever since you spoke so frank in your Sport Talk," writes lack of my own experience on race frosts that George Dixon won the title for New Orleans, where the color queues was his manager. Prof Duffy made later this same referee, who declared honored by the citizens of New Orleans chair for three terms. So the color killing off people. Another proof of proven in the Jeffries Johnson fight. There was the greatest setting for a and a wide-open town. Gambling thing Lawlessness reigned. The half of those present, the arena on the if what the gangs were going to do All hunk—all sensational by play I submission and finally knocked him everything. The crowd filed out of sober and sullen, some winners or not on the bill of fare—and what an age—Ten thousand could have been controlled."
"Ever since you spoke so frankly and openly concerning mixed bouts in your Sport Talk," writes lack Curley, "I have wanted to add something of my own experience on race roots and the color question. Do you know that George Dixon won the title from Jack Skellv, his white opponent, in New Orleans, where the color question is the supreme law? Tom O'Rourke was his manager. Prof Duffy matchmaker and referee, and a few years later this same referee, who declared Dixon champion of the world, was honored by the citizens of New Orleans by being placed in the Mayor's chair for three terms. So the color question had not so much to do with killing off people. Another proof of the BUNK of the color question was proven in the Jeffries Johnson fight at Reno, New, promoted by Rickard. There was the greatest setting for race roots. A very limited police force and a wide-open town. Gambling hell, booze joints, brothels and everything Lawlessness reigned. The Negro, Johnson, hated by more than half of those present, the arena on the open desert, and thousands of threats of what the gangs were going to do to Johnson in case he was winning. All hunk—all sensational by play. Jack Johnson chopped Jim Jeffries into submission and finally knocked him down and out—through the ropes and everything. The crowd filed out onto the prairie—some enthused, some sober and sullen, some winners or wagers, some losers, but race roots were not on the bill of fare—and what an ideal spot that would have been to stage one—Ten thousand could have been killed before the free-for-all could have been controlled."
NOT EVEN A FIST FIGHT
Curley makes his strongest point he was played up to the last word he was made to emphasize that him Je and that the world's heaviest weight cl into the hands of the Negro who tr and finally beat him in Australia. Jo to champion the cause of the white woman and despite the lack of police even a night followed his victory missed hours.
Curley makes his strongest point, however, in addink "That Reno batte he was played up to the last word to inflame men's minds. Every effort was made to emphasize that him Jeffries was the hope of the white race and that the world's heaviestweight championship should not tall definitely into the hands of the Negro who trailed Tommy Burns around the world and finally heat him in Australia. Jeffries actually came out of retirement to champion the cause of the white race. But Jack Johnson the Negro, won and, despite the lack of police protection, despite the open town, not even a night followed his victory. So why all this talk about the dangers it caused houts?"
Eastern League To Open Season On May 1 and 2 Beckwith Gets Five-Year Suspension—Other Baseball News
By LLOYD P. THOMPSON
Not since the bee of organization but the established colored clubs along the Atlantic League boasted such a likely looking circuit to start the season. With the entry of Newark into the league to round out the eight clubs it establishes a more compact loop and affords the New York clubs an easy jump with traveling expenses reduced to a minimum and also the benefit of Sunday ball. For many years the lead-independents have recognized Newark as one of the best Sunday players in the East this city, truth is the distinction of being able to turn out a creditable baseball audience twice in a single day for Sunda in coming games flourish there with as positive results as afternoon games return elsewhere.
Of course the ability of owner Cremin to present the tans a creditable ball club will present the city will go a long way toward making the enthusiasm of the town folks, but Cremin's association with the baseball situation should stand him well in building a representative team. As in the past seasons the adoptee, who are drafting a schedule having a few club problems and is not completely completed. While the league will adhere to the seventh game schedule for the season it will all be held friendly with eight clubs and its park and also the fact that Ball the co-ed indoor teams play only Sunday at home.

But Jack Johnson the New York protection, despite the open town, not so why all this talk about the dangers
counting wiles as well as the influence of his affectionate fatt bank roll to inveigle Beckwith from his birth in the Monumental City, it is well that the belligerent Beck have the fore-sight as well as the business intuitice to pin Cumberland down to a contract that spends over a period of five years at four times of his training capacity with the Baltimore team. Cumberland, the Chicago bal hard parlor proprietor may awaken to the fact that Jim Posey's think tank has worked too fast for him and will seriously affect his annual stipend from baseball.
Judging from past conference it is highly improbable that Beck will terminate a single season in Pittsburgh. Back in 1924 Beck happened from the American Giants to Pittsburgh and before the season was halted over Cumberland and his slugging hiring had come to the parting of the way. With the Eastern League as a haver Beck would find a really market for his wages. But in the event of a recurrence of this chapter the Chicago hirer will contract over strain looking for another independent club willing to meet his fed up salary demands.
From a team standpoint the year of 1925 was the worst Ike McNaman has experienced. Dating back to 1910 when general James started his baseball venture the Lincoln Giants pride of Harlem and the Bronx have always sported a nutty aggregation but the long lane took a twintast season and for reasons over which the Bronx owner had no control the Lincoln were inflicted by the other clubs till they were classed as the director of the league. Keenan made frantic but futile efforts to strengthen his club and his roster of players for the past season reached the seemingly fabulous total of 19. But with no seasoned players available the roster were very ungrafting and the Lincoln finished seventh simply because the eighth club had dropped out in the season. Dustastelle as the medicine was Keenan took the dreary
on the past season with a smile, and looking for no repetition in the last approaching campaign. Realizing that some experienced players were badly needed to balance his young team the New York owner has kept his ear to the ground and when he got wind that Baldwin was going to cut some strings he readily made a deal that secured George Johnson and John Lewis, the Titans. In Johnson the New York club has set the best outfield in the league, the Titans have been in the top position in the league and also songs were waved with for the past eight years. John Lewis is a fixture on the Holliday combo in the Larry, the Bulldogs.

nothing this unique director of the screen cannot do. This is because "Lady Windermere's Pan," his latest production for Warner Bros., which opened yesterday at the Lincoln Theatre is a perfect photoplay in spite of the, the, the sketches, who, waggled mournful heads at, the thought of Oscar Wilde's brilliant wit and famous epilgrams transferred to the screen.
"Lady Windermere's Fan," written thirty-years ago, is a thoroughly modern story of a beautiful woman's determined and successful effort to gain an entry into the society that has adorned her. Her charm wins her friends when she forces her way into the birthday party of Lady Windermere, and her sacrifice for her daughter results in ultimate happiness for the woman who risked everything she desired most, for love of her daughter.
Irene Rich is the revelation of what a finished actress can really rise to under perfect direction. Lubbitsch has helped transform her into a gorgeously beautiful and sophisticated woman of the world, and her characterization of Mrs. Erlynne is so full of repressed fire, and subtle mischief that it is almost impossible to recall that she has been known as the "most deserted wife" on the screen. Miss Rich's performance is on a par with Lubbitsch's direction. In spite of May McAvoy's determined little chin and strong personality, her delicate beauty still labels her as sweet. That the word has been misused an often, is no fault of hers, for it belongs to this actress alone. Miss McAvoy as Lady Windermere is delightful in the role of the proud wife whose impulsive flight is saved from disaster by the sacrifice of that indiscreet Mrs. Erlynne.

Were you ever in conversation with a person, when all of this whisper of 'No!' on I don't know, to quip someone, that he were made by a struggling of his shoulders, instead of by giving his answer in plainly and intelligently spoken words. We notice that this response of disparity comes most frequently from the youthful type, that is always more or less exquisitely and gestive, for the sake when he wants and means in stole and playing positiveness from a 'no' said and having viewpoint, or experience has taught him a looky before he Jeep's and likewise well his thoughts wjisely and well before he speaks.
The most puzzling thing about the whole shoulder shrugging demonstration is, even those who make a constant practice of it don't seem to know exactly what it means. Sometimes it means this and sometimes that and, again it suggests it's not care, a don't know, nay care. It's popularly because everybody's uses it and nagging by nobody's knowledge. It has become a public habit and worse of all a meaningless and useless one. Seems to me very much like the saying about folks business, i.e., "Everybody's business is nobody's business." But that isn't important. The important uery is, "Are we not shrugging our lives right into the same rut with our shoulders." A meaningless physical exertion is not shrugging meaningless mental reaction. Hence, if psychologists have shearized correctly, as our shoulders shrug, so do our minds ahrug also.
De Hart Hubbard, collegiate champion athlete, expressed this imply. After winning a decisive and glorious victory for his college in the 1925 broad jump competition, he was asked, "How do you do that?" He replied, "Who wouldn't jump, my oldest son is one day old today." Listen, folks, maybe you aren't so negative after all. Then don't appear so by shrugging your shoulders.

The Old 69th fought during the war with the Rainbow Division and distinguished themselves in many engagements.

Ira DoA. Reid Is New
Head of Chaz. Young Post
The Charles Young Post, 1998, American Legion, is now launched upon its 1995 campaign for a first night delay caused by its need to select a post commander in the ahead of Counsel Dyett, who elected by the beginning of the year, found it impossible to serve.

The entire command, with Post Commander M. V. Boutte, is right behind progressive young execu- tors. Dr. J. W. Thornton is in capable and W. Thornton has been named as chairman of the executive committee.
All the members are rallying in the 1926 membership campaign, and all the members who have not renewed their membership for the year are urged to do so at once.
Omega Frat Wins Cup
Nashville, Tenn.--Before a colorful and enthusiastic crowd on March 27, the fast Omega Pai Phi quintet trounced the Phi Beta Sigma basketeers by the decisive score of 17-9. The content marked the end of the season and decided the Interfraternity championship. Promptly at eight o'clock the ball was tossed and the fans were treated with thrilling action and splendid team works. Again and again they were brought to their feet in a 'hearty cheer for the spectacular shooting of Kent and the long distance caging of Singleton. In the first half Brown of Phi Beta shot two louts but due to the vigorous defense of Omega they were unable to make a single field goal. At the start Omega assumed the lead and never once this lead threatened. The Phi Beta seemed to be bewildered and couldn't get started. We can't but maybe it was the Omega just for not once this season have they been able to stop Omega. They have engaged them have lost decisive scores.
In the second half the Phil Betas came back and raised their points to 9, while Omega hsped up six more making a total of 17.
points made this ended the championship tilt and the beautiful prize consisting of a silver quintet was presented the Omega quintet by A. C. Miller. The season just finished was brilliant in many respects and its passing leaves some regrets. With it, the sturdy Omega forward, J. B. Singleton makes his exit. Singleton has played with the Omega quint for three years and now makes his departure due to graduation. His good sportsmanship as well as excellence in playing are not only worthy laurels for him but they are sources of inspiration to his fellows. Knox, a newcomer, has made an unusually good record as forward. He is indeed the terror of the Omega team being the high point scorer for the season. During the season he made a total of 72 points.

Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—"There is nothing more important in social uplift than a spirit of goodwill, of interracial cooperation." This is the opinion of Dr. Dunbar H. 'Ogden of Mobile, chairman of the Alabama Commission on Inter-racial Relations as stated before the Alabama Conference of Social work meeting in the Institute Chapel here Tuesday, March 23. "No social work is fully done unless it embraces all the people of the community. It cannot embrace all people unless there is cooperation. There cannot no cooperation unless there is spirit of goodwill. Dr Ogden declared the commission held its annual meeting here Tuesday afternoon as a unit of the Alabama conference which held its closing session at the Institute.
Challenging the South to arouse itself out of its main street smugness and complacency. Dr W R Alexander of Atlanta, director of the Commission on Interracial Relations, asserted that the South has been poor not only in money, but in community ideals. Our need is for higher ideals of what our community ought to be. I think in the future we will measure success of a community by its success in gathering into a unit its various races and mothering them" Dr Alexander said that any program for community education must include both blacks and whites health program for the South that does not include the Negro is no health program at all. Our communities must learn that as long as the health of colored children is neglected, the health of white children is insecure" Dr Alexander characterized Dr R R.

We must all unite against the common enemy of mankind."

Of late the fashionies that are coming to India go to prove that American girls are indulging in the habits which Ever felt when finding (tie) a dress and she begins keying up the dress of the garden of Eden. Twenty years ago the ladies of the west required fourteen yards of the material to make their dress; today they require four yards at. At the rate of progressive decrease, it takes no mathematicians to figure by midst calculation the ladies, or rather the girls would be, there, but it will take a microscope to find out what they are wearing. Still there are people who face the future without dismay, willing to accept whatever fate or fashion may reveal to them.
The Ridd On India
Several Americans, over five hundred, have come down to India this year to enjoy the Indian climate, India's fine architecture and natural sceneries. This is rather surprising that several of them have this time changed their usual fashion. They are studying besides the political, economic and poor life in India. By sic reason for your stoutness. In most instances it is safe to say that the answer to stoutness lies in over-training, coupled with too little exercise. We seem to feel that stoutness, we get up from the table "near to bursting," we have not eaten enough. Our fat is to be unglaugy and to invite disease. It is within the power of most obese people to reduce, without subjecting themselves to too much hardhose.
If you would reduce weight, decrease, but do not entirely eliminate from your diet, the fat producing foods. Chief among these are butter, cream, sugar, potatoes, rice, cakes, plies, puddings, cream and gravies. Make up the bulk of your meal by the addition of vegetables. String beans, peas, spinach, celery, lettuce, cabbage, brussel sprouts, cauliflower and the like, will spare you starvation and keep you from feeling hungry. Have as much water with your meals and between meals as you desire. Contrary to common belief, you will fatten you or disturb your digestion. You will see from these diet suggestions that what is advised is first a portion in the size of the helpings of this fat-producing foods, rather than their complete elimination, and then the addition of a generous quantity of the vegetable foods. To this diet should be added extra exercise (as outlined in this column in few weeks ago).

Their Business Tricks
Editor of The New York Age
While many living in the City of
New York, some being readers of this
paper, have doubtless experienced some
of the tricks which many grocers,
butchers, fruit and vegetable dealers
of the other race doing business among
us in Harlem, have plaved, and is still
putting over on some of us; yet, I think
it worth while to mention a few tricks
which many of the supposed cheaper
merchants try to work, and in many
cases they do get by.
It has been observed by mahy
customers that on buying meat the butch-
er and holds one end of it to a puff
the scale, making it show the amount
in weight when it is really from a
quarter to one half of a pound short.
In buying stew meat, after cutting
the correct weight, when the same
amount is placed on the block to be
cut in smaller pieces, they leave a
portion of the same on the block.
Another very hard method which some practice, is in the weighing of chickens. In this case, they throw the chicken heavily on the scales, and take it up quickly before you or themselves can see its weight, but they always quote a price, but they never mention a good twenty-five to fifty cents more than the worth of the chicken.
One day last week, a friend of mine went to a butcher whose business place is near 133rd street, on Lenox avenue. After having been told that pig tails were twenty cents a pound, he told the Butcher that two would be enough. There upon the butcher said, "Tow would cost eighteen cents." The customer having some doubt, said, "Give me one pound of them. Watching the scales, he received four pig tails twelve, but the same butcher had recently told the customer that two pig tails cost eighteen cents. I can't move some.
So, you will understand that it will pay you and me to be alert while doing business with some of the other race. I have the utmost confidence in my race. Of course, in higher grades, if they all, but they all on the square. And we are going to help them grow big and rapid.

"What's still I need eternity? But
few give senior thought to question?
sad pastor Strachan sat Saturday
among at the Harlem Second Church, 100-
108 West 12th street.
"No question," deflated the speaker, "is more solemn or important. Where, O whore shall I spend eternity? Ask me, what question this morning dear hearer? The thing is two places, and only two, that a person is in. One of those places is, with God His Heavenly kingdom beholding His lovely face, and illuminated by any intervening veil. The other place is, apart from God, forever shut away from the light and glory of His presence. My own sister, which of the two places shall you spend long and boundless eternity. "How far off from us this present moment is eternity. You say it is impossible to determine. No one knows precisely when all time will be swallowed by eternity. Well, there are a few things that will illuminate the question. Here they are, now listen.
"In this world, nothing today seems stable or grounded. Nations rise and crumble in a day. Septembr and thrones are made and disappear in a day. In one moment of time wealth is piled to moment it is drowned; divided; millionaires become paupers over a bubble, honor is fickle; friends land in one second, and trample us in the dyes. All that seems good, and worthwhile speeds from a sooon ramp望 will be left, not even that. We ourselves are always in a rush, and never have time to do what we should. The heart of the job long since been weaned uncertainty has been bound to the present. Men gaze into the future with the hope of catching one sign of a better day.
Take it from your pastor, this morning, dear hearers. He has come to assure you that a dawning; we are on the brink of it now, yes we are on the very verge of the eternal world.
Time has nearly run its course; we are not far from eternity; it is now outwardly stable, but we are still uncertain we can see the gleams of the golden-morning piercing through this night of gloom.
"There is no doubt about it. The night is far spent, and the day is at hand. We are now about to cross the very borders of eternity. Curfew tolls from tower to tower, brethren, 'as the last, last hour. Hear the footsteps of the day, work O work while we are in the way, constrained by love and imbued with power, brethren, we are in our last last hour. Time's sun will soon set and Eternity and its new day is before us."
"But listen friends: Are we prepared to come under the blazing light of that eternal day? Are our lives free from sin? All is bound to be exposed. Mark you, every individual will be able to discern between him that serveth the Lord and him that serveth Him not. Decree and duplicity won't stand the piercing rays of the light of that day.
"Upon that first day of eternity the tried and faithful will be ushered into the presence of the infinite God, there ever to remain. But the disobedient and unholy must hear the utterance, the deed of the Lord over everything, the how terrible will be the fate of the millions who have sighted Divine Grace. O, how shall we spend eternity?"
Sunday night, pastor Strachau spoke again to his congregation. His theme at that hour was, "Law and Gospel." In a labored effort the speaker sought to show that one was not intended to multify the other
Siloam Presbyterian Church
Palm Sunday was a full day at Sioam. At the morning hour of worship Rev George Shippen Stark, pastor spoke from the narrative by St. Matthew Chapter 21 on "The triumphal entry of Christ into Jerusalem. In his talk the pastor brought the reality of this life and how Christ hid nothing concerning Himself. He portrayed how Christ wants the hand wants sacrifice, wants the heart, He does not want our hearts wants Jesus, He does not want God in our hearts. Christ awakens enthusiasm. Christ is the best friend on earth or in heaven. He is always doing for us Christ came to bring redemption. He came to serve. The Bible School met in general as-

Rev. W. R. Lawton, pastor emeritus of Rendall Presbyterian Church, New York City and a former pastor at Sloan was the pulpit guest at the morning hour of worship. He was, like a hearty welcome and expressed his pleasure at being present and at the growth of the past. Sunday imputed the closing one of the ideal year of the church. The pastor commanded the priestly office its loyalty despite the presently poor loyalty despite the presently everytime during the winter and stood the test, well, and had come to the close of the year without derisit.

Concord Baptist Church
Rev. James B. Adams spoke with us from the texts, Luke 15:10, and Luke 19:37. "Likewife I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the Angels of God, over one almer that repenteth": "And when he was come night, even now at the descent of the mount of repent the whole multitude of the disciple, with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen." To every one comes a day of rejoicing The county or the nation has many, so also has the Bible One of the most notable is the day of Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem on an ass. The Christians day of rejoicing is the day upon which the accepted Christ. The Christians spoke to the assembled school. His text was especially befitting for us of the arrogance and pride of youth. "He that humbleth himself shall be exalted." The evening sermons were attended by the I. B. P. of Moose, Text: Titus, 3:8—This is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God must maintain good works. These things are good and profitable unto men."

Nazarene Cong. Church
Rev Dr Henry Henry Proctor failed his pulpit at both services last Sunday speaking at the morning hour on the "Trend of the World Towards the Ideas of Jesus." He held that the three outstanding ideas of Jesus were the Fatherhood of God, the brotherhood of man and the unity of the human race He showed how the world though far from this ideal was being driven to it by processes involved in progress which he reached this ideal was by the acceptance of Jesus as Savior, sourcing others to do so, and uniting in the corporation organized for making the ideals of Jesus the practice of the world which is the church. At the evening hour the pastor and choir united in a special "Service of Seven Words." These fell into three groups. First, those about others; second, those about his Father and third, those concerning himself. Each one of these groups was interpreted by a short address by the pastor, and illuminated musically. The pastor was very impressive, and a number during the day took a stand for Christ.
Dr Proctor visited Chicago during the past week in company with President elect Thomas E. Jones, of Fisk University, to attend a testimonial dinner by the Fisk Alumni of Chicago. A large number attended the dinner, and the occasion was marked with much enthusiasm. On their way to Chicago they were guests between trains of Miss Jennie Proctor 600 5th avenue, who cordially received them and sped them on their journey. During their short stay in
Pittsburgh, Dr. Breckow introduced Mr. Iores to many of his colleagues. Comcast Blackhouse, daughter of Mr. Pauline Blackhouse, died last week and was interred Saturday, a victim of paternity.
The following are reported on the following week: Mr. Dutty Lawson, key figure in the Blackhouse family, Mrs. Shulah Herkner street; Mrs. Van, Janet 32 Macon street; Mrs. Quinlith Curry, 32 Schenectady street; Mrs. W.

Buffalo, N. Y.—"Dr Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are the best lived regulator I have ever taken. I never found anything so good. Until I began taking the 'Pleasant Pellets' I suffered with chronic constipation and congestion of the liver. The 'Pellets' have entirely relieved me of these troubles, they are a splendid laxative or cathartic, never causing pain or distress. In cases of billiousness and sick headaches I find most excellent. The best rest regulator of the stomach, liver and bowels that anyone can take I can highly recommend them as a family medicine"—Mrs Arthur Lewis, 154 Hickory St. All dealers. 60 Pellets for 30 cents.
