Ruby Pittsburg Heads
Ruby Cab Sales Company
The latest cab to make its appearance on Broadway is the Oakland Special Six Taxicab, which is backed by. General Motors and sold through its exclusive agent, the amitable Ruby Pittsburg.
Mr. Pittsburg has had 22 years of experience in the taxicab field in all its branches. He first became known when his sales ability made it possible for the Checker Cab to make such a great stride in New York. He left his position as sales manager of the Checker Cab to become vice-president of the Astor Cab, which company he recently left to become exclusive agent in New York for the Oakland Taxicab, and president of the Ruby Cab Sales Company. Inc.
Bringing out his cab at the dullest time of the year Mr. Pittsburg, to make sales possible the Ruby Cab Sales Co. with a monogram that has an individual design and bears the slogan, "It's a Gom." In the short time that the Oakland Cab has been on sale in New York, both the General Motors people and Ruby are well satisfied with the way the cabs are selling. Mr. Pittsburg attributes the popularity of his cab to the great saving in gas, oil and tires, and the fact that the car is backed by the General Motors A service station is maintained at 109 West 64th street, and gives the best possible service.
Mr Pittsburgh extends to the taxi men of Greater New York and Brooklyn an invitation to his show room 1862 Broadway.

England, France and Italy Seek Mandate Over African Nation
Negotiations in London, Paris, Rome, For Control of Abyssinia
According to a recent dispatch from Joseph Grigg London correspondent to The New York Sun, England, France and Italy have returned to their pre-war scramble for territory and are planning the dismemberment of Abyssinia the Ethiopian empire. Mr. Grigg wrote as follows:
In spite of official protestations that Abyssinia is not being partitioned in the present secret negotiations going on in London and in Paris and Rome there are evidences in Liberal and Labor quarters the greatest obstruction is being aroused by what may be an unmavory diplomatic deal, reminiscent of the pre-war scramble for territory, but being conducted now in the shadow of the League of Nations.
In the opinion of the Manchester Guardian, the most influential Liberal newspaper of Great Britain, "Abyssinia is to be the first outlet for Musolini's imperialistic ambitions, and our own government is to be the aider and abettor seeking, no doubt, partly to place Musolini and partly to gain control of the Blue Nile waters through some hundreds of miles of Abyssinian territory."
the present time one of the basic causes of Anglo-Egyptian distrust. On the other hand, Italy is seeking the vital railroad and mineral concessions of Abyssinia. The Labor Daily Herald says that the "Abyssinian deal" had its genesis in the conversations of Sir Austen Chamberlain and Signor Mussolim at Rapallo, where the British Foreign Secretary went for "a rest" a month or so after the conference at Lacarno (Commander Kenworthy (Labor) will raise the question of these secret negotiations with reference to spheres of influence within the Ethiopian empire in the House of Commons tomorrow.
To Consult League
Great Britain and Italy have reached an agreement but France has raised certain objections that must still be met before the three Powers can address a memorial to the League of Nations showing how Abyssinia, herself a sovereign Power and a member of the League of Nations, has been affected by the latest and most important piece of diplomatic enterprise conducted in the old style manner of "I'll scratch your back if you scratch mine."
The opinion was expressed in diplomatic quarters that the new agreement as to the Abyssinian spheres of influence will have a far less effect on Afro-Mediterranean problems. It has even been suggested that Italy's aspirations to have some say in the settlement of the highly explosive Tangier problem, from which she has hitherto been barred, will now be satisfied. France is believed, will be led to approve the Anglo-Inglish agreement as to Abyssina by the award of concessions in the hinterland of French Somaliland.
Italian Defeat
The Manchester Guardian scanning the first steps in the dismemberment of the Ethiopian empire says, "It seems to be assumed that no virtue of an agreement concluded before the war and alloting special rights to themselves in territories over which they had no legal claim great Powers can not proceed with formal reference to the League of Nations to the first steps in the dismemberment of a country where integrity independence and sovereignty they profess to uphold. Abassia is twice the size of Germany and her resources remain almost untapped. The bloodiest defeat ever administered white forces has native troops in modern history was

For Colored Section City Council Authorizes Extension That Will Serve 11 Streets
Augusta, Ga. At last the City Council has recognized the need for aweage facilities in the southern section of this city, which is largely populated by colored citizens. According to action recently taken, extensive aditions will carry the system through eleven streets not now supplied with sewers.
South of Gwinnett street, extending to the southern city limits out near Turpin Hill, has had little in the way of physical improvements, although it is thickly settled. The majority of the city's Negro population is in this territory, the last to be included in the corporate limits.
Some of these streets have neither gas mains or electric facilities, but the entire section is supplied with water. The main streets are well paved, as a rule, but others are not.
Many of the best known families live in this section and some of their homes are of a most elegant type. All are equipped, as far as has been possible, with modern improvements, and are comfortably and in some instances, luxuriously furnished.
The extension of the aweage comes through the efforts at the local interracial committee, comprised of leading citizens of both races with Attorney George Barrett heading the white section and Miss Larry Lanny Founder and principal of the Haines Institute as chairman of the colored section.
Commenting editorially on the inter-
prise the Augusta Chronicle says: It is of importance not only to the own-
munity directly interested in it, but to the whole city since the people of
Augusta are interested in and affected by the welfare and health of the o-
lored population.

Dr. WALTER I DELPH
Who performed the remarkable operation of removing 6-inch knife blade from man's head.
The notable contrast between the forces that are working to bring about religious law and those who oppose religious law and who champion the cause of religious freedom, has been waging over our drastic compulsory Sunday observance bills now before Congress at Washington D.C.
On March 4 the opening guns were fired, the great religious contender who represented us more than were officers, religious and reform organizations lined up before the District of Columbia judicial sub-committee of the House of Representatives determined effort to force a favorable result on their Sunday bills. It was not formidable array of religious leaders and the longest and most intense fight ever staged before a congressive committee on a religious law.

John Tyler Hines twenty-eight. A Negro living at 142 West 129th street, told how he had gone about his business almost a month without knowing he had a six inch knife blade through his head.
He had a stab wound in his face sewed up on March 15 at the Harlem Hospital and went home. The wound healed.
When at last he began to feel uncomfortable he told Dr Walter L delph of the Edgecombe Sanitarium 328 West 137th street. The doctor found a steel point stuck in through the skin in front of Hines right ear. It was opposite the head wound on the left cheek which he got the evening of March 15 in what he calls "just an alteration between friends."
In the confusion of the fight as Hines told it, the man who stuck the knife in his head, "must have broke off the handle accidentally and just naturally left that blade right there."
Now photographs revealed the blade in position. It passed across his head just under the brain cavity and the point stuck out slightly in front of the right ear.
That explained the difficulty Dr. Delph's assistant, Dr. F. S. Mason, had in sibling Hines' electrical treatments after he complained the discomforts in the presence of the old wound and that his jaw didn't work so well any more. When the electrical ultrasound was applied to the wound, Hines always yelled that he felt the shuck clear across to his other ear "That was because the electricity ran along the blade," the two duplars agreed after the X-ray discovery.
Dr. Dolph with the assistance of Dr. James L. Wilson and M. K. Ruse, pulled the blade out of Hing's head and gave it to him as a souvenir. It is half an inch wide, slightly discolored but otherwise intact.
Hines was sitting up in bed at the Kedgecombe Santanum reading a newspaper when a reporter called on him to see the blade, after seeing the X-ray photographs
"I'll be out all right in a day or two" Hines said. His doctors said they thought so, too.
I should submit and yield to the majority.
Pastor Strachan in commenting on this said, The early Christian martyrs were in the minority and in matters of religion, the rights of the minority are as sacred as those of the majority.
Pastor Strachan also quotes Bishop W. J. Mannang in the Outlook December 8, 1920 where the bishop said, This campaign for stronger Sunday aws is one of those well meant but misguided efforts, which do harm instead of good in the case they are intended to serve.
Baptist Pastor Jailed In Blackjack Fight
A blackjack a gift of a lady friend landed Rev Benjamin J Wicks, pastor of the Mount Morail Baptist Church 43 West 134th street in jail Tuesday evening. April 20. Rev Wicks who is 6 feet 4 inches tall and weighs 200 pounds explained that he had carried the weapon for "self protection" although he hadn't intended using it. Police say he used a ton Frank Sutherland twenty four and his cousin, David Edwards twenty two, during a quarrel in a restaurant at Leuven avenue and 145th street. Mr. Wicks told police he had used the blackjack to defend himself but the deterrents and that Edwards told them he had been attacked by the preacher without reason while he was talking to a waitress in the restaurant When Sutherland came in from an adjourning barber shop to find out what the trouble was police say the minister knocked him down with a blow on the head. Rev Wicks was arrested by Patrolman George Wagner of the West 135th street Station and was held without bail on charges of felonious assault and violation of the Sullivan Law. An ambulance surgeon bandaged the head of Sutherland and told Edwards to see a dent about which had been
Mrs. Curtis, Widow of Late U.S. Minister To Liberia, Tells Of Her Experiences As Director Of Poultry Raising At Monrovia—Eggs Saved Lives of Two Workers
Among the needs enumerated are el Mues and Syrue Jones.
PAGE TWO
Mrs Helen Curtis, widow of James L. Curtis, late Minister from the United States to the Republic of Liberia, West Coast of Africa, was a passenger on the Bull liner, U.S. Shipping Board steamer, which brought her direct from Monrovia to Boston. She reached here on Thursday. April 15, after a stay in Africa of eighteen months during which time she was engaged in teaching in the Monrovia College, an institution for the education of African youth conducted by the A M F Church, under supervision of Bishop W. Sampson Brooks. She is in charge of the Department of Sewing and Poultry Reusing. The Bull liner, which operates between South Africa and the United States does not usually put in at Monrovia, but Mrs Curtis and six missionaries were waiting to make the trip, and a wireless message brought the ship to the Liberian port and the passengers taken aboard.
As wife of the American Minister to Liberia Mrs Curtis had a first hand knowledge of the needs of the people of that little Republic that stirred her sympathies and enlisted her aid. And this feeling was strong enough to contract the advice of friends who could not feel the need or sympathize with the impulse which led her to leave her comfortable and well appointed home in America to devote her time and ability to the work of carrying mental moral and religious training to the heightened south of the Dark Continent.
The sneers of those who could not understand were not sufficient to curb her desire for service and it is more than hinted that that feeling extends in some measure to those in whose behalf she is laboring.
Took Chickens To Africa
Considerable interest was stirred when in November 1924 Mrs Curts left America for Liberia a member of a party which accompanied Bishop and Mrs W. Sampson Brooks and additional curtsit, was aroused by the announcement that she was taking a number of chickens and incubators to Africa for the purpose of raising poultry as an experiment. Some folks laughed at the idea as a good joke while others were inclined to question her sanctity. In truth Mrs Curts had some doubts herself before the African shores were reached to more than half of the chickens she was taking could not stand the rigors of the course and so gave up the chicken ghost. Then when Monrovia was reached there were problems of climate and sun shade and other conditions that were entirely different from what a customer to and which Ladie he used by actual expert men.
However, these difficulties were overcrowded, and there are today more than three times as many chickens in the poultry yard at Monrovia as there is the original lot, and the poultry yard has long since more than paid the original cost of its installation and showing satisfactory profit in actual more. Testings and experiments have brought knowledge and as a result the Monrovia College poultry yard is well stocked with chickens that are large and well developed that are terile layers and efficiently tohomme when used as the mere de resistance at either break fast or dinner.
The native chicken saves Mrs Curry is a small undeveloped hybrid that lays only about forty eggs a year as against the average of more than two hundred each as established by the college chickens, and the flesh is strings and tough.
Eggs Saved Two Lives
At there is another credit to be allowed the poultry venture which alone wipes out any debit charges. Two of the school workers. Mrs. Brooks' and the manager. Mr. Graham, were stricken with discontent, one of the malignant diseases which affect the people and for weeks they were unable to assimilate food of any sort save raw eggs. And the hema having da y the college poultry had provided this hard to get non-food in splendid work and able he to recover their health and strength.

To Appeal For Assistance
While at home here, Mrs Curtis will tell the people of her work in Monrovia, with the view of enlisting their active assistance. She will emphasize the fact that money for mission work in Africa is a pittance as compared with funds raised for China, India the South Seas—the Far East and the Near East. And she says it is the race's task to furnish help for these people, to take its own responsibility. Says Mrs Curtis.
"The task is ours. Wherever you might go in Africa the tender little faces gaze up appealing, searching, hoping to find a kindness, a bit of sympathy. Should you go into Africa you would at first be appalled, you would probably shrink from the awful horror, as a healthy child who enters a hospital ward where a dread disease has disfigured and emaciated its victims. The great need is incomprehensible.
Mrs Curtis has adopted six little native African children—two girls and four boys—who are being fed, clothed and educated by her. They are from different tribes and almost every day other parents come bringing children for her adoption coveting the opportunities enforced by those already adopted
Jones Industrial School In Coahoama Co., Miss., And The Work It Is Doing
Through the liberality and interest of the late D S Jones of Highland dale Coaohaoma County Miss the colored children of that county have access to one of the best equipped schools in the country—the D S Jonge Industrial School, C H Wilkes principal, built and equipped by Mr Jones before his death at a cost of $15,000. Since his death the widow Mrs Jones, has continued the interest shown by her husband, and an auditorum has just been completed, except for the seats, at a cost of $1,600 the colored people paying $1,000 white friends, $157 10, and Mrs Jones
While in New York City, Mrs. Jones called at the offices of the New York Urban League, with a group of visitors and when mention was made at the line school facilities of her home county, she stated that despite the wonderful school system there was difficulty in getting the colored children to attend school. A letter from Ira DeA Reid in industrial secretary of the League brought from Principal Wilkes a letter setting forth at length the development of the work at Jones' Industrial School. After telling of the interest in educating colored boys and girls of the community excused by Mrs. Jones who is carrying out the plans of her husband. The good man is dead but his noble work still lives. We all loved him and each of us believe that a nobler heart never lived. Principal Wilkes wrote of the storm of the educational work in Cochama County as follows:
I came here in the fall of 1920 and have worked faithfully with my people here ever since. Notwithstanding my work has not been pleasant at all times. I have received a great deal of pleasure out of it. For I am satisfied that I have inspired the people with higher and nobler ideals. Hundreds of boys and girls have been helped in making their lives more useful in many ways. We have taught them to be clean in their habitats to be truthful and honest. We have also been able to get them to feel the need of an education and attend school. We have enrolled 225 pupils in our school. About one half of this number had never attended school anywhere before we came. The standard of education was very low indeed. When we opened school here in 1920 our highest grade was the 6th. Now we have students who are finishing the 10th.
I might explain however that our school runs 11 months in the year. We have only one month for a break. All the time we are not given the time to work. We give two and a half hours each day in industrial work. We teach the great sewing looking making and bakeries. We teach the cleaning room making painting and a small amount of manual training. We have to do on a small scale because we are unable to equip our shop as should be. We need to find a shop that what we need is not taught and on small scale are less appreise and all that.

Commissioner Of Education Hueston Makes Opening Address At Gary, Ind.
Gary. Ind.-The opening address of the National Elk's Education Week April 11 to 16, was delivered by Judge William C Hueston, Commissioner of Education I B P O E of W in the Froehrel High School auditorium to an audience of more than 2000.
Judge Hueston referred to the Efks first education week as an epocalyptic event, in that the order was first to levy a general annual assessment for aiding education of worthy Negro youth. He called attention also to the fact that the order was making a survey of school conditions in the various localities in which its lodges and temples are located. This he declared, would not be as complete, possibly as one directed by a professional educational expert, but covering as it will, some six hundred localities in which the order is represented it will at east get the layman's view of a cross section of our educational problem, so far as school conditions and facilities are concerned. Continuing
Continuing judge Huston said, "For this week for nearly twenty-five years this Order has been building. During this period we, as an Order have been going through various refining processes. When we set out to build this organization, we were first attracted by the opportunity for display that the carrying out of the tenets of the Order permitted. Next we were impressed by the race opportunity for entertainment in the lighter views offered to each and all who should join, then our racial susceptibilities to social amenities were appealed to through this most social of organizations. Each of these added to the natural sporting proclivities, that are absorbed in the blood of the American Negro furnished through this Order an arena or laboratory, if you are scientifically inclined in which to work and experiment in the solving of life's great problems by a people who for centuries have been and are grazing in the dark.
Of this condition some are conscious most have been and are unconscious. But with the coming of this week, we are hopeful that the beginning of an effort is at hand which backed by the urge of a 100,000 men and 50,000 women, will continue until an enlightenment shall come that will reach into every home, whether but or palace, to the end that the American Negro shall know and understand all things that from the great nature should be revealed to him, as fully and as completely as has been made known to the most enlightened people. To this end the Great Order of Elks has committed

itself, and we go forth this week to make our first steps.
"The great purpose of this week is to arouse all of the American people white and black, of all boods, as far as one hundred and fifty thousand male and female members of this great Order can, to the world necessity of a full and complete education of all people, and to make absolutely certain that through our efforts at least one hundred young men and women of our race have the opportunity of attending schools for higher training, who otherwise would not have had the opportunity.
"By direct taxation upon ourselves we have raised in excess of $15,000 to be distributed for the year beginning September, 1926, to the youth of our race, irrespective of whether they are themselves connected either directly, or indirectly with our Order. Therefore, we feel free to call upon a generous public to assist us in augmenting our, Scholarship Fund through the various lodges and temples in the widely dispersed localities throughout the nation, and by the same token I think it entirely fitting to invite the eligible public to come into our Order to assist in carrying out this great program."

"Who is she?"
Men invariably say when they see women like Miss Lottie Gee, Prima Donna of the In Bamville Company, whose smooth glossy, daintily perfumed hair, attractively arranged, gives her such an appealing charm—
You, too, can have the appeal of beautiful hair. Thousands of our people, like Miss Gee, are finding it is simply a matter of using Pluko Hair Dressing regularly.
Miss Gee says, "I never have a bit of trouble with my hair now that I am using Pluko, as this delightfully perfumed preparation keeps my hair soft, straight glossy and easy to arrange in any manner I wish."

Race Relations Body Holds Seventh Annual Session at Tuskegee
Review of Year's Work Discloses Improved Condition Through South
Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—The seventh annual meeting of the Commission on Interracial Cooperation which was held here recently, was the most numerously attended in the history of the movement, and in the opinion of many, the beat. Seventy-five members of the Commission and staff were present from all parts of the South, brides more than a hundred visitors and members of the Tuskegee faculty.
The reports from the held were encouraging, indicating decided and general improvement both in interracial conditions and attitudes. It was found that even the few unfavorable situations which developed within the year, such as the bachelor bill in Atlanta and the Hampton Institute bill in Virginia—served to stir up and solidify the friends of interracial justice rather than to work against the movement:
Antl-Lynching Sentiment
The Commission was especially gratified with the wide spread antlynching campaign as evidenced by the uprising of public sentiment in Mississippi the cessation of lynchings in Texas the growing determination of sheriffs to protect their prisoners and the universal condemnation of this crime voiced by the newspapers. It is too much to hope for the immediate end of lynchings in America but the Commission was encouraged to believe that the goal can be attained and that continued progress to that end is to be expected. Hand some medals just provided by the Commission to be awarded to sheriffs who protect their prisoners from mobs were on exhibition for the first time, and a committee of prominent people is being created to award these medals to sheriffs who merit them. It was agreed that the crusade against lynching should be pushed in every way possible. The press was highly commended for its attitude on this subject and for its intelligent and sympathetic cooperating with the Commission's program in general.
Students Are Influenced
Among the brightest spots in the three-day session was the hour devoted to student work. Four young college men and women told of the open-minded study of race relations that is being made by many students in southern colleges and of the courageous efforts which these young people are making to apply the ethics of Jesus in the interracial attitudes and conduct. These efforts take the form of college courses, voluntary study groups and interracial student forums and conferences. Thousands of the Souths brightest students are being influenced by this movement.
Among the specific needs emphasized and commended for special effort during the coming year were those of better railroad transportation, fuller Negra representation on public welfare boards, faster distribution of school funds, improvement of the environment of Negra children, better housing and sanitary conditions in the cities, the encouragement of bond ownership and the effort to promote a fuller appreciation of Negra achievement and history.

Taukegue, Ala--Davis M. Autby Jones of St Louis, Mo. was granniously re-elected chairman of the Commission on Interracial Cooperation. Saturday morning at the closing session of a three-day conference of black and white leaders of 2003 which met mere Thursday through Saturday With Dr. Jones who selected the entire execible staff of the commission Mrs. Maggie I. Walker, editor of the St Luke Herald, Richmond, Va. and Channung H. Tohas, senior secretary, Y M C A New York are the newly elected members of the commission
Findings pointing toward the promotion of better relations between the races in the South were adopted by the conference. The findings urged more general representation of the Negro group on public welfare boards better accommodation on common carriers more adequate provisions for public education, improvements of environments of children to prevent delinquency and education to youth in the right racial attitudes. I especially was the matter of housing conditions in url centers stressed D. L. Woolfier for research secretary for the commission suggested the creation of building the creation of building and loan companies to finance the opening up of new allotments and the building of homes available for Negroes with small down payments. Formation of such companies would prove profitable.
Value Of Commission.
in the opening meeting of the conference of Dr W W Alexander, director of the commission stated that "the greatest value of the commission lay in what it has been able to get other people to do." The success of the organization he said depends upon its ability to effect the attitudes of men. That new racial attitudes are being created is evidenced by the spirit in which many southern communities have accepted the Commission Dr Alexander acted the resolution of Negro agencies in community chest lands the publication by the Mississippi Bar association of a pamphlet describing lynching and the increasing interest of the churches in the problem as further evidence of a changing attitude. The spiritual significance of the commission program was directed by Bishop J H Jones of the M J Church who characterized the movement as the most prominent in the south since the advent of Abraham Lincoln, Bishop Jones challenged both
So Weak
Couldn't Stand
"My wife's health broke down and for years she was just a physical wreck," says Mr. Thomas Glynn, of Gibson, La. "We did everything we knew, yet she seemed to get worse and worse. She was so weak till she couldn't stand, and had to be carried like a baby. It looked like nothing would save her that had been done.
CARDUI
For Female Troubles
"I knew that Cardui was for women I decided to try it for her as all else had failed. She couldn't eat, she couldn't sleep, and I was desperate.
"After taking a few doses of Cardui, we were so glad to note that she wanted something to eat, and with each bit of nourishment, and each day's doses of Cardui, she grew stronger and got up out of bed. She is now able to cook, and stronger than in a long time."

Fallocking injunctions, as a rule, simply mean the opening up of a joint by the same operators in a new plaza. The establishment operated for many months at 2191 Seventh avenue was closed by Federal Court order and a few days later, the same operators had opened up at 150 West 1361 street, in the basement of the private house at that address. And this is typical of the situation throughout the community.

Wold Brotherhood League ToOpen Chain of Grocery Stees Throughout Country
"Putting God Into Business" is a stall adopted by the World Brotherhood League, a new organization of which the Rev William Y Bell, mayor of the Williams Memorial CAF Church, at 318 West 130th street is the head of this organization has begun the establishment of a chain of food stores which they hope to have in all sections of the country. The first store was opened four weeks ago at 405 Eighth avenue under the management of John Joanner. It carries a full line of staple and fancy groceries, butter eggs, all kinds of meats and fruit.
The Brotherhood League guarantees to give full weight, and to sell their goods as cheaply as any of the chain groceries. They also propose to give the public some share in the management of the business and in its profits. Stock certificates are issued at $1 each and any customer may purchase from one to ten shares. These stockholders are given a special discount on their purchases.
According to the Rev. Dr. A. R. Vincent assistant to the Rev. Mr. Bell in promoting the venture the principal object of the League is to open up new opportunities for young. New jobs coming out of the various business and technical schools of the country. Several young men are employed at the Lighthouse avenue store, and although there are several other stores in the same block Mr. Joyner and his assistants are kept quite busy. The League holds mass meetings each Sunday afternoon at Rev. Bell's church where considerable interest has been aroused in the undertaking. Plans are being perfected for the opening of several similar stores in other sections of Harlem in the near future.

At 4 o'clock last Sunday afternoon, the Church School of Missions of Siloam Presbyterian Church, Miss Cornel Lomax, president, Mrs. Thomasina Wilson, secretary, presented the Rev. Dr. Henry Hugh Proctor as principal speaker in a program in keeping with the National Missionary Meeting program for the day, subject, "The American Negro." Mrs. Virginia Jones Lark gave a brief but interesting sketch of the life and work of Miss Tucy C. Laney, founder and principal of the Haines Institute, Augusta, Ga., pioneer in training of the Negro boy and girl in the South, and little Miss Wilson gave a reading from Paul Laurence Dunbar.
Dr. Proctor took as his subject, the health of the race, and expounded many precautionary means by which individuals may make themselves more useful and of greater value to the race by conservation of their health. These suggestions were summed up by the speaker in what he termed the "Ten Commandments of Health for the Colored Race," which are as follows:
1. Honor your parents by having a thorough physical examination every birthday; for an ounce of prevention is worth a ton of cure.
2. Honor your friends by taking a daily bath; for cleanliness is a part of godliness.
3. Honor your family by having your life insured; for life insurance guarantees the cooperation of the insurer in the prolongation of the life of the insured.
4. Honor your physician by avoiding patent medicines; for the most of these nostrums are humbugs
5. Honor your stomach by having your teeth examined regularly by the dentist; for good teeth are an aid to digestion
6. Honor your digestion by being careful of your diet, for many a man digs his grave with his teeth
7 Honor your lungs by breathing pure air, for ventilation is a means of grace
Honor your nerves by taking plenty of rest in sleep; for thy who work all day and play all night promote the brevity of their lives by; burning the candle at both ends
9 Honor your country by obeying the prohibition law, for it is the mark of a good citizen to obey the law whether he likes it or not
10 Honor your God by chastity in word, thought and deed, for the race that wishes eternity must exalt maternity
Following the address, the church choir, Lucien H. White, organist-director sang Negro Spirituals, and Mrs Wilson gave a reading. An offering was taken for the Church School of Missions

Bordentown School Gives Summer Employment To Agricultural Students From Other Schools
---
Bordentown, N. J.—The expansion of the agricultural activities at the Bordentown Industrial School has made it possible to offer summer employment to agricultural students from other institutions. In this way the school will render a unique service in the field of agricultural education
Most of the Land-Grant colleges are now requiring a definite amount of farm practice before a student can graduate from the agricultural courses. As a rule, for one cause or another these institutions are not in position to give the desired farm practice. On the other hand the type of farming and the wage on the home farm or in the community is most of these institutions are usual discouraging to the young college student. And even where a rather progressive type of farming is practiced the attitude toward farming and the farmer is not very encouraging to the college student.
The Bordentown school is in position to give the agricultural student practice work in general farming, fruit growing gardening swine production, dairying and poultry raising. All of these enterprises are conducted on a large and modern scale. The school is also in position to pay a wage to the intelligent and industrious student that will enable him to get through the average southern institution for a year's time. It is also to be noted that the attitude toward farming and the farmer is much more favorable in New Jersey than in the South. It is further to be observed that at Bordentown the student will have an opportunity to work under the personal supervision of men who have had long and broad experience in the field of agricultural education and practical farming.

GOVERNOR SMITH'S VETO.
Governor Alfred E. Smith, on Tuesday of last week vetoed the bill introduced by Assemblyman Grenthal providing for a change in the boundaries of the seventh municipal court district of Manhattan, which includes Harlem. This bill had passed both houses of the Legislature as was the case last year, when the Governor's veto presented it from becoming a law. Then it was introduced by former Assemblyman Pope Billups of the Twenty-first district, who urged its passage in the interest of his constituents. The growth of population in the district affected was urged as ample reason for the change

and a great prospect of the depth
to which Southern statesmanship has fallen. When a man of Pat Harrison's vulgar instincts can be elected to the office of Senator, it constitutes an indictment of the constituency that would elect him. It marks the decadence of civilization in that section of the country that stands for such a representative. It defines the status of Mississippi as a state where lynch law and the mob are in the ascendency, despite the efforts of the decent white people of the state to subdue these evils; where education is scorned rather than valued as a means of uplifting the masses; where the Negro is held as a peon and robbed of his earnings under the vicious crop system and every effort to improve his condition is thwarted and deceived.
The reasons given by Senator Harrison for opposing the nomination of Mr. Cobb as judge are a more serious indictment of the speaker and his State than any that could be framed by the most adroit prosecutor. His utterances show the low level of Southern political thinking, and the mischievous sentiments utilized to tickle the ignorant and intolerant portion of this constituency.
MAKING A HAITIAN PRESIDENT. The Associated Press brought the misleading announcement that Louis Borno was re-elected President of Haiti on the first ballot, April 12, 1926. This was not the form of election provided by the revised constitution, which was thoughtfully provided under the Wilson administration and drafted by the Hon. Franklin D. Roosevelt, then Assistant Secretary of the Navy. That at least provided for an election by the National Assembly, the members of which should be chosen by the people. Haiti has had no national assembly since Gen Smedley D Butler, with his force of United States marines and machine guns, dispersed the legislature in the first days of the American occupation
President Borno was re-elected by a Council of State, the members of which were appointed by the President and subject to removal by him. Although it was stated that his principal opponents for the position were two former members of the government, his re-election was a foregone conclusion. So long as the American High Commissioner, Gen. Russell, and the armed forces of the occupation, run things in Haiti, the Haitian officials will continue to be puppets manipulated by the representatives of American capitalists.
Of course the best friends of Haiti cannot affirm that the country had developed a truly republican form of government, based on the principle of manhood suffrage. The easiest and sometimes the only feasible way of removing a president once in power was by revolution. The power of the ballot had to be reinforced by force of arms in order to change the rulers. But that is the way of most of the Latin-American republics, so Haiti was not singular in that respect. Even in such progressive countries as China and Brazil the army must always be reckoned with to maintain or reject the verdict given at the polls.
American intervention in Haiti instead of improving political conditions has rendered them more deplorable, in that it has substituted alien domination for native rule, however deficient in true democracy the latter may have been. What if Haiti did have some twenty-five or thirty rulers during its history of a century or more, and some of them met with violent ends? The same thing might be said of the United States, which has lost at least three presidents by assassination within the last half century.
The sooner the American occupation of Haiti is brought to an end, the better it will be for the good name of the United States. Let the Senate adopt the resolution introduced by Senator King of Haiti clearing with the matter. His venture in imperial annuity is a continuance of national aggression and wrongdoing.

ing example of the national paternalism decried in this definition. The belief in "laws, that bear equally on all classes without special privilege or monopolistic advantage" was held up to decision, by the pointed query as to whether "Grandfather acts and various other schemes of depriving Negroes of their suffrages as heretofore enacted in certain Democratic states bear equally on all classes." The further pertinent question was put: "Are there no special privileges where white children have fair instruction and in fair schools but where Negro children have poor instruction in poor schools?"
The Sun asserted that the trouble with the definition is that, like the man who went out boasting of his pugilistic prowess, "it takes in too much territory." A Democrat in New York is far different from the individual wearing the same political tag in Missouri. A Democrat in Alabama may differ from one in Louisiana or Nebraska on the tariff or some other domestic policy. There have been free trade Democrats and protection Democrats, free silver and sound money Democrats, pro-slavery and abolitionist Democrats; Bryan Democrats and Cleveland Democrats, Underwood Democrats and Cole Blease Democrats, said the Sun.
But, it might have been added, unfortunately, it is the Cole Blease kind of Democrat whose voice is most potent in defining the national Democratic policy toward the Negro in and out of national conventions. This is one of the reasons why the Democratic party finds it so hard to elect a Democratic president.
VETERANS HOSPITAL TROUBLES. For more than six months there have been reports of internal troubles in the administration of affairs of the United States Hospital for disabled Negro veterans at Tuskegee, Ala. Charges and counter charges have been preferred against the commandant. Major Ward, by subordinates whose chief effort appeared to be to discredit his administration. The charges against Dr. Ward, which were of an entirely frivolous character, were summarily dismissed, but the acts of insubordination still continued.
It is therefore gratifying to find a Washington dispatch in the Baltimore Afro-American quoting General Frank T. Hines, director of the Veterans Bureau as denying that there would be any change in the policy of operating the hospital. The charges that certain officials in the bureau were in a conspiracy to discredit the administration of the hospital, were declared not substantiated, "as the Bureau fully intends to continue its policy with regard to the administration of that hospital for and by those of the colored race." Prompt decision was also promised in the cases of those employees against whom the commandant had preferred charges of insubordination.
The chief cause for these troubles that have arisen to vex the hospital administration is the failure to sustain the commandant in dealing with insubordinate employees. The hospital is a military institution, maintained for the relief of disabled soldiers, and discipline should be enforced in its management. The fact that one of the cases of insubordination had been hanging since last October seemed to show a disposition on the part of the bureau to encourage the recalcitrants
If Major Ward is to exercise the powers of commandant he should be given ample authority to sustain his position. Investigation has shown his administration to be without any serious flaw so the authors of the frivolous charges made to detract from his record should be rebuked and disciplined by appropriate action. To continue them in positions where they can renew their groundless assaults is to incapacitate the good work that might otherwise be accomplished and give ground for the charges of a conspiracy to discredit the hospital administration. It is time that the Bureau took action indicated in general Hines statement.

It is true that Haiti is the most backward of all the states of the New World. It is true that its past record is one of almost continual turbulence. It is true that there is a large recrate and ignorant population. But the government has been trained by experience to make a better showing than the past. It would not be a bad thing if it were the like of the military.

A Brazilian Writer
Advises Negro Editors
Editor of The New York Age
It is high time that the colored American press should get down to serious business and make itself felt and read by all races and classes. It has a noble cause to defend and splendid grounds to work upon. The great sufferings, disadvantages of the colored race, compared with other people in the U.S.A. with the unequaled opportunities so easily afforded to all but the Negro citizenry, would always make a trivial pathetic and interesting story when well compared and presented
And the cases are so numerous and varied that fresh and important occasions could be correctly made every day in the week all the year round. The editors and publishers should not think that their race, in the eyes of God, in the science equivalent on which the American nation, or I. S. government was founded, is any whit inferior or superior to other races. And thus the conditions, opportunities and sufferings should be mathematically compared with the best or worst in the land just as the case may be.
When a colored person is refused a right or in any way abused the case should be treated as exemplary of what American citizens have to suffer so unnecessarily. Plead for better and more equitable standards for the American populace and especially for the citizens of the country. Plead for better conditions for all and an unpathetic unrequalified class. And the colored press should bring all of the special unhappiness of colored people to the light, and compare them with the very excellent condition of certain other people in the country. Once in a while it would be good to cite cases of suffer, which certain whites and colored people both are unnecessarily subjected to.
And if the argument is treated broadly and profoundly, with any sign of partiality, everybody will read it. I should never publish a work for one class or color, race or religion to read in a country like the U.S. But my concern would read my publications with as much anxiety as my friends because I would strike with such force that they would need to read it for their own safety. But I would always give the straightest and best news possible about the colored people pertaining to and compared with all people's conditions. Let a white person buy a colorist man's papers and read it, and with the option of deaths, marry a ball games, lunch meetings, innocent society at it, he will learn no more about colored people than what was known in white papers.
The duty of the colored press is to publish the disadvantages of the masses of colored people by causing the individual cases in the different walks of life all over the country and protesting against theanners of the white press for not exposing such articles. This is what makes a paper read.

Since Mother West Away
Things don't seem to go so well,
Oh! the story's hard to tell.
Everything seems dark and dreary,
Life just seems a little weary;
Since mother went away
Father's calm and somewhat drooped,
Sister says, his shoulders stoop.
All the house is quiet too,
And we're all a little blue.
The light has changed its hue,
Since mother went away.
And we lay awake at night,
And there's nothing just quite right
Oh! there is such great space.
Nothing fits right in its place.
And life seems a hampered race.
Since mother went away
Mother's love can never cease.
It will live and just increase.
Fen beyond the ethereal sky.
Mother's love will never die.
And will guide me, night and day.

Our Protectorate In Haiti
(From Rochester, N.Y.) Times
Union
The news of a presidential election in Haiti directs attention to this little Negro republic which has been under the thumb of the United States ever since 1915. Of course the election is a farce. There is no popular vote whatsoever but merely a choice by the council of the State a body of 23 members under American control. And any attempt to contest the result would be roughly dealt with by the force of American marines that are still in Haiti today.
In general this kind of supervision of another people does not accord with the American tradition nor even with our policies in many cases. We got out of Cuba. We got out of San Domingo occupied in nearly nine years. We have recently gotten out of Nicaragua. In the region of the Caribbean it has been our rule to serve a right of intervention but to leave the various states of that region to work out their own destinies so far as possible. The rule is a wise one. It limits our own burdens and commitments, it makes for better relations with Latin America it is helpful to the states concerned.
Why should we not apply it then in Haiti? Why not withdraw our troops and give the Haitians a chance to see what they can do at governing themselves under warning that a return to chronic resolution will bring a new intervention. Such a step would be wholly consistent with our policies and our ideals.

A adjunct meeting was conducted by the Missionary Society in the afternoon, under the group lead by Mra. Gatje. In the evening the pastor preached a twenty minute's sermon on "Behold the Man." This was also rally day for religious education under the Negro auxiliary to the Baptist City Mission Society. Emphasis was laid on the fact that this was the first effort at raising finance by the organisation, and, although it remained a minority, it was lifted morning and night, the proceeds of which were turned over to Dr. G. H. Sims, treasurer of the auxiliary on Monday.
Union Baptist Church
Last Monday, the "Davil's Kitchen" was presented by Dr. Pope. He gave a splendid exhibition showing the progress of the race and the life of the church.
Sunday morning the service was well attended. The day was known as Religious Educational Day. The B Y. P. U., the junior masjonarps and the Sunday school assembled in a body to listen to the special sermon by the pastor. The subject was: "The Child and the Future." The sermon was well prepared and forcefully delivered. It was enjoyed by all.
The attendance at Sunday school was good. The lesson was reviewed by superintendent Johnson. Mrs Harvey Green had charge of the program in the B. Y. P U which was very well rendered.
The evening service was one long to he remembered. The choir, under the direction of Prof W. A. Calhoon, rendered an excellent song service. The message was delivered by the pastor Subject "Sowing and Reaping." The spiritual server was unusually high The service was great. Offering amounted to $207.65
St. Mark's M. E. Church
The morning and evening services of St Marka M. E. Church were attended by unusually large congregations.

"The Kingdom of God is Within You" was the message of pastor Streichen last Eaturday morning at the Harlem Second Church, 106-108 West 127 Street.

In the morning sermon the pastor said, "I came to you dearly believed in the same message that was borne ten 1000 years ago by our savior and tell you that the kingdom of God must be established in the world and in the church, but it will never be realized there until it is first established in the individual heart."

difference between these two laws. The first, existed in Eden, before the fall of man. It was right and true, and which if a man obeyed, he would even whole duty of man. James called it the royal law, the law of liberty, because it related solely to moral duties. It was scribed upon enduring tables of stone, placed in a specially prepared ark. It was to be kept along with the faith of Jesus, was never to be destroyed because it was to be the law by which all were to be judged.
"The second legal code, the ceremonial system, demanded the blood of bulls and goats. It was added or brought in because of the triangression of the first code. Naturally it could not appear until after the fall. This code was wholly ceremonial, for it stood only in meats, drinks, divers washings, and carinal ordinations. Since it was penned by the hand of Moses, they called it Moses' law. It soon became a yoke of bondage, for it raised a wall of separation between the Jews and the whole Gentile world. This ceremonial law was superceded by the faith of Christ, and was abolished by His death upon the Cross. Because it was against us and contrary to us, Christ took it out of the way nailing it to his Cross.
"Very plain you see, are the distinctions between the moral code and the ceremonial laws. For fifteen centuries ceremonial restrictions separated the karalite indeed from the corruption of his heathen neighbor. This code enlightened the thought and inflamed the hopes of the Jews with its prophetic and shadowy characteristics. But when Christ came, the shadow faded into the substance, and the ceremonial passed away.
"Not so with the moral code the dialogue. There was is now, and ever shall be nothing shadowy about the ten commandment. They were neither typical, temporal, or provisional. They came into existence under altogether different circumstances. They were designed for no one race nor restricted to any one period. They were given as a rule to guide the entire human family in all ages. And only the priosa who accepted them the wise who teach them, and the faithful who obey them, shall be called the greatest in the kingdom of Heaven."

. Salem M. E. Church
Salem Church has had the honor of the visits of several ministers recently who have been attending the Methodist Conference in or near New York City. The two sermons of last Sunday were preached by two of these visitors. Dr John Reeves of the Lord's Day Alliance spoke in the morning on the efforts of the Christian forces to preserve the sanctity of the Sabbath. The gist of his sermon was summed up in the following words: "If you want the power of God in your lives you must be in harmony with the purposes of God. Set apart a day and let that day be a sacred time for tuning in with God. Dr J. J Johns presiding Elder of the Delaware conference was the speaker for the evening. His message was forful and sang with the old time evangelical fervor as he quoted Isaiah 3:28 in the way of the Lord, make
At the layupum the members have a spendid opportunity to learn of the aims and objectives of the Equal Rights League at explained by some of its officers. Von C. T. French is the president of the newly formed local branch He together with Mira J. Blacksone and Leo. W Allen outlined the place which the organization will fill in our community life. Some very pleasing music numbers were rendered by persons especially invited for the occasion. The Senior department of the Eupworth League visited the Refuge Church of Christ and rendered a program for the Armor Bearers Young People Union at six o'clock. Representatives of both churches spoke favorably of developing the bond of good fellowship among the people.
At the morning service an alite collection was listed and ooated to the
lection was litited and ooated to the work of the Lord's Day Alliance. A group or young boys of the Uplift Industrial School of Mont Clare, Pa., sang at both the Sunday School and the Liceum. They had as their director Mr. Charles Long, founder of the school. The beaar is drawing large crowds nightly. The beautiful decorations programs and social atmosphere have been the main attractions.
Newman Memorial Church
Many who attended the services at Newman Memorial M E Church, last Sunday were disappointed to learn that Rev. L. W. Cooper who has pastored the church for five years had been the first to another charge. The disappointment however was real of a she listened with rapt attention to the impressive and instructive preacher by the new pastor in the position of Rev. Hampton I. L.

The organ recitals offered by Mr. Matthews are very much enjoyed by his listeners. Last Sunday, morning, he played Lento and Allegro movement from Ist Organ Sonata by Mendelssohn. The choir rang "Jerusalem" from Galza" by Gounod. The evening prelude "Te Deum Laudamus" Clausman; offertery Serenade in A (Galbraith); postlude, March in G (Boex).

"Ten Steps To Heaven" is the subject of a sermon to be illustrated and delivered at Rush Church, the evening of April 29, at 8:30 p.m. The public is invited to come out and hear Rev. Holt.
St. James Pres. Church
Rev William I. Lines occupied the pulpit, Sunday morning, and preached to an overflow congregation. His six minutes semantic to the children of the congregation was the story of two boys—one an Arab and the other Benjamin Rannaker. The theme of his story was "Walking on the stars." The theme of the regular sermon was The Bible and Public Morals. He taught a wonderful lesson on how fashion oftimes dominates the street truth.
At 8 p.m. the sermon was to the Mutual And Beneficial Society of St James. The Sons and Daughters Society of New Jersey was present as guests with a large audience.
The choir was out in full and rendered some of the very best selections. The solo work by Miss Vaughan and Mrs Carter was especially good. Three persons united with the church. The report from the "Free Member Campaign" was made by Mr Whitney, chairman of the Trustee Board and showed that splendid work had been done by the volunteer committee.
The Sunday school Christian Endeavor and Brotherhood held their regular meetings.
Tuesday, April 20, the Young Women's Progressive Crèe gave their unrestral show at the Imperial Auditorium. This circle of the church is what the same smiles—progressive. Their entertainment was one of the most enjoyable and well conducted affairs at the seas. Wednesday, congregational meeting was conducted by Rev. W. Brown of Mother Zion Church congregation and choir accompanied by.
Sunday afternoon the S. James
Dumal was addressed by Mrs. Mee
Walters on the Hill. Its inauguration
Mrs. Walters is indeed pleasing
and continuing speaker. She held
her audience spellbind as the con-
tinued historical facts of civic and
society to prove her influence
that what the Negro needs is com-
plete organization and is recognized

numbers here by Mrs. Miss Dibbs Mess-
La Mott and Lee Abrams were ex-
ceptually good.
Next Sunday April 25 will mark
the 150th anniversary of the church.
Dr. Times will preach the anniversary
sermon and pay tribute of respect
to the Rev P. R. Tomkins and char-
ter members who founded the church
April 26 1895.
Sunday evening April 25 the Past-
tors Aid Society will have their an-

A. M. E. Zion Church
"The Gospel Beast Hare" of which the Rev. W. W. Beckton is the preacher, launched their Evangelist Campaign for a three weeks' run at the church, Sunday morning. This is perhaps the greatest aggregation of church workers of our group in the country today. They made a great impression on the vast audience at both services. By training these young men are masters in their particular situation and would make a great contribution to

This material contrast between the structures with which he (Booker T.

But satisfactory and encouraging as this is it is but an imperfect measure of Dr. Washburn's work and achievement. The education and annual turning out of two or three hundred young men and women for lives useful to themselves and their families is of course a most commendable and helpful work but that was only one part of the work of the students.

the race in other fields of activity.
To link themselves together in a religious organization for the saving of souls is a calling in which the church should be justly proud.
Lawrence McCormick of Kansas City, Mo. is the business manager and social secretary to the group, while St. Elmo Johnson is second violinist and comes from Chicago, IL. The first violinist and concert master is William Mundy of Cincinnati, Ohio. Prof. J. Roy Terry is musical director and soloist of Dayton, Ohio, a product of Wilberforce University. He is also organizer and leader of the Wilberforce Quartette. Another soldier and song leader is Homer J. Smith of Chicago, Ill.
Should this group of young men do nothing else but exhibit their talent before the public, that alone should make us impression upon the young men of this city, but the whole hearted manner in which they go about their work in the helping to save men is among the unusual things in religious activities.
Dr Beckton comes from the Jone Star state and carries with him in his work that dynamic force that makes success sure. All other activities in church are being suspended during the season for this campaign.
Another worthy asset to the church is Prof Payne the musical director and organist of the Church Mass. Prof Payne comes from Boston Mass and is a product of the conservatory of music in that city. He has been long known in the musical world in this section of the country and comes to this church with experiences of group singing and high intellectual accomplishments.
Seven persons were invited to the church during the day. The communal service was a celebration and were conducted by Dr. Pitwin. There were several hundred communals at the service.
Rev George Matlocks was the speaker at Zion Baptist Church. Rev Matlocks spoke from the subject. The Child leapt in the Temple."

"The torrent is there—a gigantic spiral of water that tears a village up by it, foundations and impetus of devastation in a mighty thrill—but that is not the real actrent in the history of this story. The torrent, as the author, Vincente Balelom Ibanez, saw it, in the malaestro of human emotions that sweep away destinies just as the mighty flood carried material things before it. The new picture is a mighty thill and an enthralling drama that grips the very bearings. Wonderfully acted, gorgeously staged and contained it has more than that.

Trie Of Time Musicians Gives Interesting Program At St. Mark's M. E. Church
An interesting program 'was presented at the new cathedral of St. Mark's M. E. Church, 137th-138th streets, Edgecombe to St. Nicholas avenues, on Monday night. April 19, by the artists' trio composed of G. Warren Tarrant baritone; Jessio Covington, pianist, and Eugene Mars Martin, violinist.
This group of artists have combined their musical efforts for the purpose of giving the public-programs of rate merit, and it is a combination of unusual merit. They were presented on this occasion by the Parsonage Committee of St. Mark's Church, of which the Rey. Dr. J. W. Robinson is pastor and which is now centering all of its church activities in the new refice uptown. The old 53rd street building, has been permanently vacated.
Mr Tarrant was liberal in his vocal offerings, giving four groups, with Ming Covington playing his accompaniments. This task she also performed for Mr. Martin's violin numbers. Two songs in German, a litter by Schubert and the wonderful "Song to the Fvening Star" ("O du mein holder Abendstern") from Wagner's "Tannhauser," and the "Vision fugitives" from Massenet's "Herodiada." sung in English, comprised the first group, with the Prologue from Leoncavallo's "Pagliacci," in Italian, as his second offering. Songs by Walter Damogesch, Huhn and Rosamond Johnson, made up the third group, and four Spirituals arranged by Burleigh was his final rendition.
Mr Martin's two groups were the Saint Saens "Rondo Capricciosi" and "Schon Rosmarin" and a "Minuet" by Kreisler first and a Tchaikovsky Waltz the Beethoven-Aner transcription of the "Chorus of Derviches", a Kreisler Rondino and "Introduction et Tarentella" by Sarasate, the second
Besides her accompanying, Miss Cowington played Debussé's Clair de lune, and a Scherzo from "Midsummer Night's Dream" Mendelssohn-Hutcheson. This fine young pianist is the holder of a fellowship for study of the pianoforte for the second year at the Ijuillard Musical Foundation. She goes soon to Oberlin, her alma mater, for a recital.
The committee from the Parsonage Committee managing the recital was made up of Mrs. Minnie L. Drer, president, Mrs Hattie R. Hazel, vice president, Mrs Hazel Daniels, secretary; Mrs Jennifer F. Addison, treasurer; Mrs. Esther Williams, in charge of refreshments
James Bell, Tenor, Makes Recital Debut
Another young tenor made his concert debut to a New York audience on Sunday afternoon, April 11, when James Bell a pupil of Harry A Williams sang a fine program at the Imperial Auditorium 160 West 129th street. His program was wide in riffle and offered matter of interest on all classes of music lovers. Numbers by Sargant, Purcell, Handel and Hadon were admirably given, and those were followed by the area "Una furtura lagrima" (One furture tear) from Donzetti's opera "Il Fluid Amour." Other songs were by Clay, Schubert, Quilter, Tenen and Spirituals by Burleigh, Hall Johnson and Lawrence Brown. Lydia Mason, pianist, was the supporting artist. She played a chopin group and numbers by Schumann, Brahms and Poldin.
Abbie Mitchell Married
Reports have it that Miss Abbe Mitchell the dramatic soprano, who is in the forefront of the race's great artists was quietly married last week to a Mr. Thompson. Friends extend their heartiest congratulations. Miss Mitchell will sing on Monday evening, April 26. under management of William R.

"The calling," goes the phone.
"My wife caller 'You are wanted.'
Voice on the phone: "Hello, some boys were here a minute ago and they asked me why the Cief Club hired Fletcher Henderson for their Easter dance?"
The sudden and unexpected query throw me back on my heels. Then I recalled having seen the poster advertising the dance and Fletcher Henderson's and Sam Patterson's name mentioned, covering the poster. To gain time, I asked, "Why put it on me?"
Voice: "I had to pass it to someone and thought of you first."
"Well," I answered, "this is a commercial age and everyone is straining their energies to gather the shekels. Fletcher Henderson is an attraction no one can dispute: he is in business and accepts engagements when terms and conditions suit him and his band."
Voice: "But the Clef Club has a large membership. Couldn't they fill the date? Are they scared of their prestige? What would Europe say?" "Oh," I interrupted, "you know Europe is dead and his brains were iterated with him. Administrators do not always administrate. Europe was an administrator of great vision and foresight. Another man like him is needed to steer the ship of music on which the colored men of America have had a free and undisputed sway. But the ship is threatened and endangered by shoals and rocks of immense proportions. Men like Whiteman, Lopez, Bernie, and others, syndicated themselves and they each may have ten or more orchestras using their name—working for them. Even millionaires' sons find the dance orchestra business fascinating and lucrative. Do you wonder then that some morning the colored musicians may awake and find themselves compelled to walk the plank."
Voue: "Pretty good, but don't forget the Clef Club could have hired any other orchestra. Anyway, you wish them success, don't you?"
New Jersey Churches
The Montclair City Quartet composed of J H Armstead, J H Vigal, Howard Champ and Sim Coleman, under management of the Rev. Harvey Ongue, spent Sunday recently in Cranberry, N.

The morning hour of worship at Siloam, Rev. George, Shippen Stark, pastor, took his text from Col. 3, 1. Talking upon the Christian life as a reflection life. He emphasized the point that all Christian life begins at resurrection. To live we must die. The same thing applies to all noble life. Any noble life is a resurrection life. We must die to flesh, to worldliness. We can't go high if we aim low. Our aim is to find Christ. The only way to find God is think about God. What is needed today in this noisy world is a little quiet hour to think on the things of the inner life.
Received into membership at this service: Mrs. Marie Hope Watkins, 351a Quincy street.

"Jesus comes to us in the spirit and reminds us of promises made, and also comes to us and illumines our darkened souls, just as he did to Peter," said the pastor, Dr. Edward E. Tyler, during the course of his morning message. He was speaking on the theme, "Lovest. Thou Me." The text was St John 21:15-18
Dr Tyler vividly pictured to the vast throng present how Christ appeared three times to His disciples before His ascension, and pictured how He does the same to His followers to-day. Some of us as do like Peter, that is, we go back to our former tasks and associations after years of service, when the clouds of adversity, disappointments and misfortunes come if we love Christ as He has loved us we will never forsake Him and His service
When Christ asked Peter, "Lovest Thon Me?" He meant did he love Him with an appreciation of all that is envolved in loving Him, even to suffer death for Him. When Christ said, "Fed Me My Lambs." He meant to feed the young Christians with spiritual, social and moral food. It is the duty of all Christians to grow and not to remain immature
The term "Feed My Sheep" has a larger significance. It brings before us the idea of shepherding. The good shepherd will go so far as to Ly down his life for his sheep. So it is with us as real Christians. While Peter was emotional we must get beyond the idea of emotionalism. Picturing hell and its dangers, or heaven and its glories, should not be the cause of us becoming Christians because we are afraid, or we are desirous of entering the bliss of the Great Beyond, but because we love Christ for becoming our Savior. Christ wants us to have the spirit of mother love for our church, and His Kingdom. We cannot build His Church on feeding or emotion but on love. Not love of the pastor, or the office or officers or love of pump or display but love of food and His divine purpose.

Kappa Alpha Psi Frat
Dehaters Win Loving
Cup From Omega Psi Phi
The Kappa Alpha Pal Fraternity debating Team won the National Star Loving Cup Trophy in a rather uninteresting debate with the Omega Pal Pal debaters on Tuesday evening. April 13 at the Elks Imperial Auditorium.
The subject of the debate was resolved "That Governor Smith's Housing Plan Should be Adopted." The Omega debaters took the affirmative side of the question while the Kappas had the negative. It was the general opinion of the listeners that the question was handled rather carelessly by both sides as there was too much generalization and too much quibbling over petty issues and terms. Neither side seemed prepared or any too well acquainted with their subject matter.
For the affirmative, Leo showed the need of such a bill, W. A. Hill gave some of the substantial features of the bill, while E. A. Looby bore the brunt of the burden by virtue of his being the last of the affirmative men. The negative side, Collier, Dudley and Corbey, showed that such a bill was not necessary because of the changed conditions in New York. The decision went to the negative.
The judges were Charles S. Johnson, editor of Opportunity, Rev. Shelton H. Bishop, and Attorney Francis Rivera. Dr Charles H. Roberts presided. After the debate those present danced to the music of the West Syncopators.
St. Mark's M. E. Church Organ Destroyed By Fire

The building was turned over to the new owners on April 15, of this year. According to the Rev Dr. John W Robinson, pastor the loss was covered by insurance.

Education For Life Is Emphasized By Dr. F. G. Peabody of Harvard U.
Tuskegee Institute, Ala—The purpose of education is to draw out the individual's mind, to encourage him along lines in which he is most capable, and to fit him for useful citizenship.

This is the opinion of Dr Francis G Peabody of Harvard University as stated in a speech delivered at the Annual Founder's day address in the Institute Chapel here Sunday afternoon. Founder's day exercises are observed each year commemorating the birthday of the late Booker T Washington, founder of Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute.
The new education is an education for life Dr Peabody declared It involves the following three principles Specialization unfaturation and spiritualization Such as education leads to the more learning It leads to the concentration and fulfilment of life This new or which can supervise the training and ap- citation and which can help more and more education include the training and has been exemplified by Dr Peabody

"The Vanishing American" At Renaissance Theatre
"The Vanshung American," Zane Gress's latest and greatest story to be screened by Paramount, will be the feature attraction at the Renaissance Theatre Saturday Sunday Monday and Tuesday April 24, 25, 26 and 27 Because of its stupendous appeal the management has booked this wonderu- picture for four days
The picture presents one of the biggest and most vital themes concerned with the history and civilization of the United States. It holds a deep element of tragedy from the Indian viewpoint, showing him disposed gradually of his lands and shorn of his power by the white man. The story carries with it the eternal love problem in wellying racial lines the love of an Indian a white girl. The scope of the story is back to the primitive days, pre-when the time is dwindling. An alabama star excellently supports Richard Dex Louis Willow, Nat Hirsch and Malcolm McGregor who are featured in The Vanishing American. Although one of

"Dancing Mothers" At Roosevelt Theatre
If you're just a little tired of comedy if "Westerners" bore you the least bit, if spectacles no longer make you leave your fireside, if you are one of that large army who have one or many of the above symptoms—then you're going to enjoy the new Herbert Brenon Paramount picture, "Dancing Mothers" which is at the Roosevelt Theatre, Saturday Sunday and Monday, April 24 25 and 26. For the benefit of those who did not see the stage play it might be wise to explain that "Dancing Mothers" is declared as "society drama" but is much more than that description would seem to imply. "Dancing Mothers" is the tale of a pretty woman who was almost cheated out of life by a heartless husband and a thoughtless daughter. As the mother who started out in order to save her child from throwing herself at a notorious bachelor and ended by falling in love with him herself Alice

Frequent Bilious Attacks
"I suffered with severe billious attacks that came on two or three times each month," says Mr. J. P. Nevins, of Lawrenceburg, Ky. "I would get nauseated, I would have dizziness and couldn't work. I would take pills until I was worn-out with them. I didn't seem to get relief." "A neighbor told me of
and I began its use. I never have found so much relief as it gave me. I would not be without it. It seemed to cleanse my whole system and made me feel like new. I would take a few doses—get rid of the bile and have my usual clear head, feel full of pep, and could do twice the work."
Billious attacks are "seasonal" with many people. Millions have taken Thedford's Black-Draught to ward off such attacks, and the good results they have reported should induce you to try it.

This, of course, is the political, or for effect, propaganda of these cases. Therefore, those who are conversant with both sides of the subject, and who are inclined to be unprejudiced, are seldom impressed with the correctness of these surveys.
The heart rendering appeal of an anguished mother for her missing daughter, which appeal was made in this paper last week, should touch the heartstrings and sympathies of every parent under whose eyes it fell. This case should be of special interest to those of the Pullman fraternity, since the father of the girl is one of us.

THINGS SEEN, HEARD AND DONE AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYES
It might be well to state in the article that what follows in this article is not intended as criticism of the Brotherhood unionize the Pullman porter, nor of anything or any one connected with it. What follows is merely a few observations concerning it.
The Musesinger Magazine, the official (?) organ of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Portors, announced in its March number, and reiterates the same in its April issue, that leaders of the Brotherhood had employed three able economists to make an economic survey of the wages, working conditions and living conditions of Pullman porters throughout the country.
Now that is an excellent idea, especially in connection with the last named conditions of these employees.
At the present time we have no concrete knowledge or data on the subject. Whether Pullman portors are the aristocrats of unskilled labor, or whether they are the people of America in their economic conditions, has not so far been scientifically determined. The only information and cognition we have of the matter, is that gained from hearsay and from personal observation. And, as every one knows, that is superficial knowledge.
For instance, going by hearsay, one would judge us to be economic paupers, in so far as these conditions are concerned. On the other hand, and in opposition to that impression, to observe some of us in our social and home life, one would readily concede our living status to be on a par, if not superior, with that of any other group of unskilled laborers in this country.
Hence, a scientific survey will greatly aid us in arriving at a true perspective of the matter, that is, if the survey is to be made strictly for information, and not for effect.
As a rule, surveys of this character are almost always biased. They either present the worst features of a condition, or the best. They never follow an intermediate course.
For instance, when a corporation desires to show how well its employees are treated, or if an occasion arises in which an employee is called upon to verify certain allegations regarding this treatment, employees receiving the highest pay and approving the most favorable features of their employment are always selected as witnesses.
Similarly, when the employees wish to impress upon the public how badly they are treated by their employer, the lowest paid, and, naturally the most dissatisfied of these employees, are usually used as examples of this condition.
In the case of the porters, there is no disposition here to imply that such will be the procedure in this examination. It will be time enough to form conditions when the report comes out, which, it is hoped, will give the information desired.

Speaking of railroads, the New York Central seems to possess an attraction which no other railroad has. Its nearest rival, and, considered by some, its equal, is the Pennsylvania. But just as persons of the same business standing differentiate, so do these railroads. There appears to be that indefinable something about the Central that the other railroad hasn't got. For reference question any Pullman porter who has run for any length of time over both these roads.
The Pullman fraternity was well represented at the complimentary dance and reception of the F. B. S. (Chew But Select) Circle on Wednesday evening April 14 at the Renaissance Casino (C) Duvall, a New York Pullman employer, is one of the officers in this society.
