The wonderful spring day all bright with golden beauty; the hallowed sentiments that cloister about the word mother. The marvellous young life that likes to express itself in the gentle increasing warmth of a northern spring season and natural desire to associate all life that is enabling with religious sanctions, compred to make a perfect day. From the peal of the organ at 10.55 to the benediction at 1.20 p.m. every minute was action. The minister's text was Isaiah 66 13. "As a Mother comforteth her child so will I comfort you." He said God's love and pity were illustrated in the sacrificial character of the true mother. He showed this to be true (1) in a mother's simplicity of teaching like God's way of instructions (2) in a mother's favoritism for the work order of her household; (3) in a mother's patience in little things; (4) in her readiness to forgive; (5) in her tenderness in putting her children to sleep like God giving repose to His venerable saints.

If mother has gone to her eternal home we honor ourselves as we honour her memory. We are made stronger in the light against temptations as we meditate upon the brave fight she made for us. We are nurtured in mind and heart we recall her purity of life and the grandeur of her faith. Each one of us should take delight in this opportunity to pay a tribute to love and gratitude to mother, our best caring friend. If she is in our home city let us visit her today, if abroad, send her a letter and a gift. Perhaps mother is not with us any longer, but her memory is precious our love for her is still the tender.

"I was the trail breaker after Captain Bartlett turned back to the ship which we left on February 16, 1909, at Cape Sheridan (Grantland, 80 miles south of Cape Columbia. We went forward about a mile or so, we doubled and picked up the sledges. Then we would leave the sledges again and break a path ahead once more. We went forward in two each couple close together. We had eight dog teams. I was in charge of the equipment. I ordered the whale boats used in the expedition and designed and made the sledges. I also did carpenter work. My job was that of an assistant to Commander Peary. Cut Path With Pickaxe Going out from Cape Columbia the first stages of our journey were mighty rough and we had to wield a pick axe constantly to cut the ice. At one time the ice in motion sounded like thunder as it moved swiftly to the eastward and it cut right into our igloo. "The rough going made it impossible for us to go more than 15 miles a day so you can see how the flight by air compares with man power. "Commander Pearls often said that he thought that the real way to reach the Pole would be by air, and I believe that he set apart or offered Eagle Island as a base for aircraft. There was no place up there that offered a safe landing place for air craft. Our way back we were able to go much faster because we were traveling lighter and then we had the trail which we had cut on the way up. But sometimes it was rather difficult for us to find it and we had to scout around until we picked it up again. On Previous Expeditions Henman said he had been on previous expeditions with Commander Peary, the first in 1891 and from then until 1909, when the Pole was found he went frequently to the Arctic regions with the American naval officer. He remarked somewhat ruefully that being unacquainted with conditions in the Arctic region he failed to dress for his first trip and wore over his coat and waistcoat only a sealskin coat two pairs of woolen stockings and ordinary rubber over his shoes. Pulled down over his head he wore a woolen cap. I wrote in note and the rest of my face somewhat, he said. But later I learned better an dook measures to protect myself properly. On later trips I suffered no more than anybody else. I was the hunter for the parts as well as being in charge of equipment.

I was run-down sure enough. "Several of my friends had taken Cardul and they said to me, 'Why don't you try it?' I knew I needed something to build up my general health and to increase my strength. "Finally one day when I was recovering from a spill of sickness, I decided to try Cardui. I got a bottle and began to take it. I could notice that I was improving as my appetite got better and I did not give but nearly so quick. I took several bottles and I felt lots better. "Two years ago I decided to take it again. It built me up and made me feel like a different person." Cardui should help you, too.

As a result, the building is a gutted wreck from flames, twenty families are homeless, Baker is in the hospital, and the cooperative owners of the apartment building are out $100,000. When Baker struck a match to light his pipe, the match head filked off into a pile of waste paper, and in a second the pile was afire. He rushed to get a pail of water to put it out but when he got back, the flames had reached the coal bins, and the planks were blazing. Frank Cox, another colored man who is superintendent of the building, saw smoke billowing through the hallways and rushed down stairs to see what the source was. He found Baker unconscious and pulled his body out just in time to prevent him from being incinerated. The cleaner, who lives at 91 Putnam street, was given first aid and questioned by Fire Marshal Thomas P. Brophy, Police Commissioner Lynch and Fire Commissioner John Dorman, who had just been sworn into office and was attending his first fire officially. Then Baker was taken to St John's Hospital, suffering from smoke inhalation. In the meantime, five alarms had to be turned in, fire apparatus from every section of the city responding, traffic was suspended on Bedford avenue, one of Brooklyn's principal thoroughfares and the firemen were kept busy heroically making rescues of women and children who had been trapped in the burning, building Nine such rescues were effected.

Greenberg and Patrolman Thorpe of the 16th Precinct Police Station if she recovers from the results of one of the strangest accidents in history. Mrs. Dudley was riding south on a Lenox and Lexington surface car about midnight Sunday. 'She was sitting on the left side of the car when for some unknown reason she became dizzy when the car reached the corner of 142nd street. 'She slid from her seat and fell into the path of a northbound car just as the two cars passed each other. The motorman on the northbound car saw the woman as she was falling and stopped his car in an instant but not before one wheel had passed across the left leg of the unfortunate woman. Screams were heard from both the injured woman and women passengers in the car. Several of the passengers swooped as her body was dragged from beneath the wheels. Sergeant Greenberg and Patrolman Thorpe rushed to the scene of the accident and by making a tourniquet out of the patrolman's nightstick arm, a heavy cord, stopped the flow of blood until the injured woman could be rushed to the hospital. At the hospital the leg was amputated below the knee but the next day another operation was performed and it was taken off just above the knee. Hospital authorities say that the woman could not have lived had she been allowed to continue bleeding until she reached the hospital. At present, her condition while serious, is hopeful.

Rev Nazarene Congregational Church Last Sunday was observed as Parents Day when Dr Henry Hugh Proctor spoke on "The duties and responsibilities of Parents and Honor due Them." He held that the cure of the present crume wave lay in the home as the fountain pen of all morality. In keeping the fountain of the home pure, parents must have the cooperation of youth. He held that the home was the origin of the school, the bulwark of the state, and the reser them do unto us. The young people of the church made a valuable contribution to the evening's program. Miss Gwendolyn Walker who possesses a voice of unusual charm, and which should be cultivated, captured the congregation by the singing of a song dedicated to mother. Miss Sadie Lee, another member of the young people's society, made a great impression in the manner in which she rendered a selection, dedicated to mother. Miss Lucille Cromer, the dramatic reader, stirred the audience with her reading of the selection "Rock Me to Sleep, Mother." Dr J G Robinson, editor of the A M. E. Review, introduced Prof. Jackson, to the congregation in a short pet eloquent address. Dr T. Taylor acted as master of ceremonies. At the evening hour the services given over to the observation of "Mother's Day." It being communion Sunday this celebration was deferred until this service. Prof. A. S. Jackson, secretary of Education, of the A. M. E. Church, was the principal speaker. He paid a great tribute to the greatest of all women. Mother. He also urged the vast throng to keep the faith of our mothers, and live up to the principle of the Golden Rule, doing unto others as we would have by paid to Mother. The Bible School presented an interesting Mother's Day program at the usual hour of the school's session. This program was presented by the pupils of the junior Department under the direction of Mrs. J Hatgrave, superintendent. The program consisted of songs, recitations and a Mother's Day drama. At four o'clock a program of unusual interest in keeping with the day was presented by the young peo: ie under the direction of Miss Cornelia Handy.

Several months ago there was a determined effort made to secure a pardon for Marcus Garvey, the head of the Universal Negro Improvement Association who was sentenced to a term in the United States prison at Atlanta, for fraudulent use of the mails. In seeking a commutation of sentence, Congressman Royal H Weller of New York secured a hearing before the Attorney General of a delegation named as Prof. D H Kyle of West Virginia, Dr. I. J. Peters of New York City and Bishop J D Barber of Youngstown Ohio. The arguments used by these pleaders for clemency for Mr Garvey revealed that the spirit of Garveyism was survived the downfall of its leader and its blatant in the utterances of his followers. After receiving the assurance of the Attorney General that they would talk all they wanted, first a verbal announcement himself as D H Kyle of Clarksburg in northern West Virginia, there was asserted there was quite a following of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. He based his idea for the release of Garvey on the ground that his downfall was the result of a scramble for race leadership. This professor continued.

Several months ago there was a determined effort made to secure a pardon for Marcus Garvey, the head of the Universal Negro Improvement Association who was sentenced to a term in the United States prison at Atlanta, for fraudulent use of the mails. In seeking a commutation of sentence, Congressman Royal H Weller of New York secured a hearing before the Attorney General of a delegation named as Prof. D H Kyle of West Virginia, Dr. l. J. Peters of New York City and Bishop J D Barber of Youngstown Ohio. The arguments used by these pleaders for clemency for Mr Garvey revealed that the spirit of Garveyism has survived the downfall of its leader and is blatant in the utterances of his followers. After receiving the assurance of the Attorney General that they could talk all they wanted, first a call and unnamed himself as D. H. K. Clarkburg in northern West Virginia, she asserted there was quite a following in the Universal Negro Improvement Association. He based his plea for the release of Garvey on the ground that his downfall was the result of a scramble for race leadership. This professor continued After Marcus Garvey, being a West Indian by birth, came to New York and had a greater following than any of the American Negroes, a kind of rivalry came up and when they saw they could not upset his plans they got together out of jealousy to get rid of Marcus Garvey and then they would get a lead in the organization. That practically was the basis upon which they sought to get Marcus Garvey brought up for trial. I am talking about the motive behind the thing. Had Marcus Garvey gotten some of the leading Negroes of the country to be a party in the organization, to prepare the balls and let him shoot them, then he would have been all right. The trade professor went so far as to reiterate "that frame up business," that made it possible for Garvey's rivals to make up these conditions, probably on the grounds of jealousy. He said that Garvey's slogan for Africans is not a new The trade professor went so far as to re- treat to "that frame up business," that made it possible for Garvey's rivals to make up these conditions, probably on the grounds of jealousy. He said that Garvey's slogan of "Africa" the Africans is not a new one and declared that he personally would not want to go there live but would go on. But he added that there are any suggestions that want to go and start a colony in Africa on Garvey'stees they ought to be permitted to go and that is the slogan in which he is working. The Attorney General here intercepted the commen. "You look like a sensible man." But he promptly inquired what all the professors had to do with the matter of Garvey's offense against the law and what did he mean by a frame up. This brought out the response that Garvey was "indicted for three counts and convicted on one count" using the mail, trudulently in connection with the stock of the Black Cross Line. The Attorney General's question. Does people want to have somebody impose upon them and collecting money from the sands of them for his own purpose, how he replied. No. I have the undertook to remain to the our business, Garvey is the one that is a thing that we have not been able to see. Even with all at the enterprise and connection that I have had personal with Marcus Garvey, I have not seen one instance where he has beaten the people out of money conscientiously." To what the Attorney General amended Otto could not be conscientiously — it is inconsistently. He then took up one of the petitions asking that Garvey be lib- erated on the ground that the entire pro- cess was not the case. Evidently he was not also get involved from the advocates of Marcus Garvey sufficient to insist on meetings in the petition or connotation his petition. The material fact that Garvey least large ammunition for the prosecution put him in The effect of the Carvevites to bring the issue of the case by a flood to talk about racial realities as to leadership and a frame up by rivals was characterized by the methods pursued by the leaders better his fall. Such tactic may well the good and guide less individuals who came under the personal influence of Garvey, but they could not fool a Down East lawyer. That was the menace of the Garvey movement under the vainglorious and impractical dictatorship of its founder. If some of the enterprises started by Garvey had been conducted on a second basis without wasteful extravagance and impractical methods, the movement might have resulted in battering racial conditions. But the airogance and intolerance manifested by Garvey and his satellites demanded the whole field for their own selfish exploitation of the race. To this end they did not hesitate to denounce all other race movements and threaten to remove by violence those who promoted them. The more outspoken Garveyites even predicted the coming of the day when the streets of Harlem would be safe only for those who displayed the Garvey badge. This spirit of intolerance was one of the phases of Garveyism, which menaced the peace of the community. The exploitation of those unfortunates, who were deluded by the glowing prospects of big dividends to invest in steamship and other stocks, was another issue damaging to the economic progress of the race and weakening confidence in legitimate enterprises. The fanatical devotion of the confirmed Garveyites who insisted in throwing good money after bad was an entirely different thing, even while it involved the exploitation of race solidarity for an unworthy purpose When Mr. Garvey was convicted and imprisoned for his offense against the government, The Age felt that he had earned the sentence passed upon him and dropped him from further consideration. The impudent attempt of his advocates to befog the issues and secure his release by fooling the United States authorities shows that the spirit of Garveyism is still rampant and anxious to work further mischief. But the cloven hoof is too apparent to fool any except those who are willing to be fooled RED CROSS RESPONSIVE As the history of the American Red Cross make most other American institutions, has not been entirely free from the flavor of color discrimination The Age is glad to make special note of the prompt and given by it in the case of a sick veteran, who needed an adjustment of his claim for relief. This case was called to the attention of the executive head of the New York County chapter by the editor of The Age on April 28. Under date of May 1, a courteous response was received from Executive Director Howard J. Rogers, in which he said: As the history of the American Red Cross, like most other American institutions, has not been entirely free from the flavor of color discrimination The Age is glad to make special note of the prompt aid given by it in the case of a sick veteran, who needed an adjustment of his claim for relief. This case was called to the attention of the executive head of the New York County chapter by the editor of The Age on April 28. Under date of May 1, a courteous response was received from Executive Director Howard J. Rogers, in which he said: I am happy to tell you that a representative of my office appeared before the Claims and Rating Board of the Veterans' Bureau, yesterday, and a rating was given the veteran of $20 per month from December 2, 1925. A special check, in the amount of approximately $300, will go out to him today and of course the $90 a month will be continued. It has given this office great pleasure to be of service to Mr. Jones and we thank you for calling the case to our attention The promptness and courtesy with which the officials of the county chapter exerted their efforts to secure the necessary relief for this veteran enhanced the value of the service rendered. The Age is glad to record its high appreciation of the manner in which the officials of the Red Cross in his particular case discharged their duties to humanity without distinction as to the race or color of the individual to be helped. This has been true in large measure of the local chapters in New York and vicinity, both during and after the war. Such discrimination as was practiced in the case of nurses and others was largely due to individual prejudice, usually imported from other sections or dictated from higher authority. As an instrumentality of relief for suffering humanity the American Red Cross should be wholly free from the stigma of color discrimination either in the case of administering aid or in the choice and treatment of its workers. HARLEM PHYSICIANS ORGANIZED The organization of the medical fraternity in Harlem is proceeding at a rapid rate, a third organization of doctors having been effected in the shape of the Cosmopolitan Club, which held its first dinner a few weeks ago. The president of the new club in setting forth its purposes was careful to state that it had not been formed in opposition to the North Harlem Medical Association or the Howard Reading Club. Its members would gladly cooperate with these and other organizations in efforts to promote the welfare of the whole community. The speech objects of the new organization were stated to include the holding of conferences to the discussion of scientific development in the medical profession to keep a statistical record of deaths among the violent people of Harlem and to promote general health conditions in Harlem. This is the first work in which all the doctors of the state could engage to the advantage of the profession and the benefit of the community which they serve. Such conferences would keep them posted in the latest methods of treating disease and give them proper warning of the spread of alarming symptoms. The preservation of statistics on the causes of death would provide some system of checking up on the damaging reports frequently issued from official and non-official sources as to the ravages of certain diseases among the race. The cooperation made possible among the physician by the existence of such organizations as those named would also put them in position to materially strengthen the development of racial business. If the doctors would encourage their patients to have their prescriptions filled at the drug stores operated by colored druggists, it would stimulate the drug business among us and make possible the opening of more places for our graduates in pharmacy. Thinking white people who are conversant with the business conditions in Harlem, cannot understand the mental attitude which permits the greater part of that business to be transacted by white drug stores and groceries and other retail establishments. The organization effected by the physicians, who have to deal with a large number of colored patients, could exercise great influence in changing that attitude. Let them begin by seeking to build up the business of the colored druggists and the other things will follow. THE NEW JERSEY SENATORSHIP. THE NEW JERSEY SENATORSHIP. While New Jersey will not elect a United States Senator for over a year, the politicians of that State have already begun to canvass the chances of the statesmen available for that position. Among the names of those prominent Republicans which occur most frequently as possible candidates are Hon. Hamilton F Kean, ex-Governor Stokes, and Hon Joseph S Frelinghuysen, a former occupant of the senatorial chair. In the political jockeying essential to securing an advantageous start in the senatorial race, there have not been wanting efforts to commit the colored voters of the State to certain of these candidates. All of the men named for the position possess their elements of strength, as shown by their records in State and national politics. None of them perhaps could appeal with greater reason for support, if he was a candidate for the place, than ex-Senator Frelinghuysen His record while a member of the Senate showed him a true and tried friend of the Negro race, without bias or equivocation of any kind. His consistent attitude toward all legislation involving the rights of the race was without flaw. He also proved himself a staunch advocate and supporter of the broadest opportunities for education, both in the North and in the South. If any candidate is deserving of racial support on his past record it is Mr. Prelinghuysen. He was also committed to the policy of according proper political recognition to the race in official appointments, having endorsed the appointment of the present minister to Liberia. He is also in favor of the appointment of another colored man to that post, in case of a vacancy occurring therein. If Mr. Frelinghuysen should become a candidate for Senator from New Jersey in the near future the colored voters of that State will make no mistake in giving him their earnest and hearty support ARMY MUSICIANS' PAY Twenty-one dollars a month is the pay given the privates acting as musicians in the United States Army. This is less than was paid for the same service sixteen years ago, when the handsmen received twenty-four dollars a month. The private soldiers of the line who sixteen years ago were paid fifteen dollars a month now get the same pay as the musicians of the hand. The result is that men enter the army hands only for the purpose of learning how to play and then return to civil life where the rewards of the musician are greater. The army is thus kept constantly training musicians for civil pursuits and is hampered in maintaining a first class regimental band. The musicians in the army are asking for the same rate of pay not authorized for similar service in the navy. They claim a higher standard is expected of the army band, which frequently have to serve in town and cities, so they perform their regular military duties. The proposed raise of pay for army musicians is but the first step toward de骄ing good regimental bands. Another reform asked for is the separation of the band from the service troop with which it is now awkwardly joined to the detriment of its morale. This troop is composed of teamsters and other workers the musician being an unconsidered minority. The attitude of the officers commanding the troop is frequently influenced by these conditions and little attention is paid to the musical end of the organization. This result in dissatisfaction and the taird good musicians get it as soon as possible. A bill has been introduced into the present Congress to remedy these conditions by a reasonable increase of pay for army musicians and the separation of the bands into distinct organizations. The band leader who is now merely a teacher of music, is made the commander of the band with the rank pay and allowances of a commissioned officer according to length of service in such capacity. This bill has had a hearing be- fore the Senate sub-committee on Military Affairs and there is every reason to warrant favorable action in both houses. The value of the army band in helping maintain the morale of a regiment and inspiring soldierly conduct and patriotism was fully demonstrated in the World War. The famous military band of the Old Fifteenth Regiment, under the lamented Lieutenant James Reese Europe, was a conspicuous example of the worth of music in army life. THE LEAVEN IN THE SOUTH. An interesting news feature of last week was the announcement of the awards of the Pulitzer prizes for 1925, in journalism and letters, at Columbia University. One of the most significant awards in journalism was the following "For the most disinterested and meritorious public service rendered by an American newspaper during the year—$500 gold medal "Awarded to the Columbus, Ga. Enquirer Sun, for the service which it has rendered in its brave and an energetic fight against the Ku Klux Klan; against the enactment of a law barring the teaching of evolution; against dishonest and incompetent public officials and for justice to the Negro and against lynching The editor and owner of the Columbus Enquirer-Sun is Julian Harris son of Joel Chandler Harris, the chronicler and interpreter of the "Uncle Remus" stories. Mr Harris began newspaper work on the Atlanta Constitution in 1890 as a reporter and later became its managing editor. In 1914 he came to New York as Sunday editor of the Herald and later had charge of its Paris edition. At the end of 1921 he went back to Georgia, with his wife, Julia Collier Harris, and bought the Enquirer-Sun. He ascribes to her a very great deal of the credit for the fight made in their paper for justice and tolerance and against bigotry and ignorance. Mrs Harris has also written for The Nation, the Journal of Social Forces and the Herald Tribune's Book magazine Under their management the Enquiler-Sun, which was established in 1928, and is a member of the Associated Press, has been one of the few newspapers in the South to protest vigorously against lynching and mob law. While many of the Southern papers have recently played down lynching stories so as to minimize the enormity of this offence, the Enquiler Sun has reported them as fully as possible and editorially demanded the punishment of the lynchers. The fearless and outspoken policy that characterizes the paper was indicated in two editorials appearing in the issue of Sunday, May 2. One of them was based upon the unnecessary beating of a Negro boy in Tampa by a police man which was deprecated by the Tampa Telegraph as "inexcusable." The Enquiler Sun said It is the duty of a policeman to arrest violators of the law and not himself become a violator of the law whether he beating a prisoner or killing him. The officer under path to preserve the peace in a lawful manner whether the offender is such or poor, black or white and there is instigation in his pursuing any other course. If he should do so he should be dealt with in the same manner as other offenders. The blue hat and the badge give him no right to step without the bounds of the law in any way shape form, except whether to bully he or she. It is a matter of regret that the sometimes occurs that men, the type of the one reported, I am given positions on the police force. All policemen should not only be men of courage and wisdom but the should be men of discretion. Police officers should and must of them do remember that the are servants of the public that it is their business to undertake to kill doze and overrun people and that policemen have no right to commu- nity act in contravention of the law. They are as amenable to the law as the humble and most shrewd are. The other editorial related to the Issue Capital Now writing the word Negro. I read in part as follows: The a. a. that the principal princess proper case. The is not used by men in writing the word Negro but it should be used by The word Negro is as much a proper noun as the word Indian or Mongolian or Malay or Caucasian or American or European or any other used to designate race or nationality. It is uncertain why the word Negro should ever have been written in any other way than beginning with a capital letter. It may be due to the fact that the word nigger has been misused for. But nigger be used to designate the man there as much reason as it should be capitalized as any COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS other word used as a substitute. When, as is the case in parts of the country, the word Grüssel is used, meaning a Mexican, or Grüssel, meaning an American, the words are capitalized. It requires nerve and courage for an editor to write this sort of thing in an old established organ of Southern news and opinion and to get away with it. In a latter which appeared in the New York World, Mr. Harris was quoted as follows: "Unless you are a Southerner, or have spent some time in the South, you cannot estimate the disappointments and dangers one confronts in a small city when he attacks intolerance, bigotry, illiteracy, sentimentality, the Klan and State officers, and not only demands justice for the Negro but opens his columns to them Referring to the refusal of a concern offering available funds for building operations for churches, schools and fraternal organizations; to consider loans to colored congregations, the Philadelphia Christian Recorder said. Now two things must be considered. Ist Colored Churches must learn to pay their obligations better. It is not all race prejudice We are eager to borrow, but slow to pay Hence we pay large bonuses We know a church in this city which is said to have paid a white sum 25% bonus, when a white church could have gotten the money for 5% or less When we asked why, the reply was the risk on a colored church is so great we do not care for their business at all. 2. We must establish our own banks and trust companies so that people who belong to our churches will handle the money of our people. We must encourage our people to patronize our own. But we must here recognize that our banks cannot be run much differently from others. There is a principle of banking which knows no color line, and that is that a borrower must have secreply promptly as agreed, and must pay couple promptly as a greed, and must pay for the risk to which he puts the bank. As Editor Wright has had some experience in the banking business, his opinion is entitled to more than ordinary weight. In an editorial upon the unjust racial discriminations on railroads, the African-American Presbyterian published at Charlotte C. C., said The front coach where the colored people are compelled to ride is less safe because of its proximity to the engine than the other coaches. And what makes matters worse is that frequently these front coaches are constructed of wood. Thus sandwiched between the iron engine and steel coaches, these wooden coaches in case of wrecks are usually crushed as egg shells, resulting very often in destruction of life to the occupants. There is no law for such discrimination. There is law for separation of the races on railroads, but if there is a law on the statute books requiring coaches for colored passengers to be placed nearest the engine we have never read or heard of it. The workings of the jum crow car laws of the South are indefensible from the point of humanity or decency. These laws are used to defend the passengers who have to pay first class fare for unsafe and unsanitary accommodations. In answer to the question, Why colored Jurors the Chicago Brow said among other things Probably the greatest break down of justice in all parts of the country is in the courts. Testifying before a congressional committee recently, Clarence Dixon and Negroes do not get justice any place in America. True but why do they not get justice. First because they do not serve on juries in sufficiently large numbers. Next who does then not serve on juries more frequently? It is because we lack that vigorous persistent temperament whereby one is willing to annoy the other fellow to death until he gets his rights. At least twice as many should register and vote. Then too they don't make an issue of a thing in such a way as to crystallize sentiment and focus attention upon a special phase The idea of having an efficient hom- orable and lovable colored man in every deaiment of the government should not be needed not sept upon by far satisfied with it. It is just as import- ant to have colored men jurors as it to have colored school teachers and workmen and policemen. The jury is the last and final justice. Let us hence make forth this fight for jurors our hardest men in the demand for civil rights. The move for this question was due to the statement that out of forty white men examined a jurors in the Sweet trial. Detroit only fifteen admitted that they did not entertain any race presidence. The Supreme Court's News of Al- bany has in its news columns noted the following progress: a step out the Aug- uja at a thrive. The chairman of Augusta is not authorized to additions to the sewerage stem which will greatly improve the sanitary conditions of the southern section in the county in which the water is cooled population. Flees were hitherto without agreement to be served by the extensions anthered. The project was initiated and carried out success through the efforts of the local interracial committee composed of a number of leading citizens of both races. Hon George Barrett, prominent lawyer, heads the white section of the committee, and Miss Lucy Laney principal of Haines Institute, is chairman of the colored section. Commenting editorially on the enterprise the Augusta Chronicle says: "If Appalachian not only the communities immediately interested, but to the whole city, since the people of all Augusta are interested in and affected In order that their names may be connected with activities and the range, burglary and violent offi- cations." It is only through the coarse- ageous utterances of the editorors as Mr Harris that the le- en will be furnished to raise the tone of public sentiments. The South and save the abstraction of that section from per- ing the gutter. The award of the Pulitzer prize was an appro- pnate acknowledgement of the be- doing. The South is some day realize the debt to such men and raise movements to their memory. It would be better to heed their word in the present. by the welfare and hearth in the remote population." That is a practical result of the racial movement in Georgia, which is of unusual importance and vigor. The Chronicle editorial takes the hard and correct view of the improvement. The editor of the Atlanta independent made a trip to Augusta in the month of political organization. He wanted to thousand Republican clubs, immerse with one-hundred member card-ease member a qualified writer. He was further We ought to have clubs in every college, high school and university in our state. In fact, there ought to be a Chair of Politics, or political science in every high school, college or university to educate the youth in the importance of political activity, that would impress upon the students minds that a man but a half man who is not a qualified voter, and that any man who passes through college and has not educated himself in the duties and responsibilities of citizenship is only half educated and would be more valuable to the community, as an asset, had he lived in overalls with a pick and shoe in his hand and with the common sense to vote for men and measures. Editor Davis who succeeded to the place of Henry Lincoln Johnson as a member of the Republican National Committee, is trying to build in the party in Georgia. He should get the State Convention a little closer up to date, as one of the resolutions adopted as printed in his paper, pledged support to President Roosevelt! Commenting on the recent outbreak of mob violence at Carteret, N. I. and the burning of a colored church building the Richmond Plains said: It seems to us that this northern action is getting about as central as the Southern one "used to be" in that at times, we have a concern for our old troubles here but condemn it steadily improving and if they let this divine have a church there he has to do is to "come on back home. There are many pulpit vacancies. The harvest is great and the laborer is few. We shall watch with interest the result of this outbreak in order to just what these Northerners will do dealing with Southern conditions. Mob violence and law breaking are not confined to any section of the country. The chief difference is that condoned and encouraged by local authorities or punished as a crime against the State.

Grier was in tup-top condition and held the local team hitless until the last minute. His teammates, the Bacharach Giants, hit Chambers hard during this contest and won by a score of 82 In addition to being treated to the best pitching exhibition of the season, the fans also witnessed the season's most exciting game. This was the second contest Manager "Pop" Iloyd tried out one of his busier pitchers, a six foot boy in the name of Gilmore from Sanford, N. and word got around to the visitors that this was his first league game With Country Brown and Roy Roberts selling at him from the coaching lines, the Lincoln fans seated Gilmore would be unable to law the game out. He not only lasted, but before the game was over he was also striking the Batcharachs out and had gamed so much confidence that when he pitched the third strike he would not wait for the umpire to call it but would pitch the ball and start walking to the dugout immediately. The Lincoln staged a great batting rally to win this game. In the sixth inning when they were four runs behind, they started hitting Roberts and scored 9 runs before the side could be retired.

C.—Before one of the largest crowds that ever witnessed a track meet on the Howard University campus, Howard easily captured the college events, with Manasas (Virginia) Industrial Institute carrying off high school honors, at the open track meet held on the University campus Saturday afternoon, May 8. The special events of the track meet were the exhibitions given by Lester "Gus" Moore, of the Boy's High School. Brooklyn, in the one mile run, and the showing of Ned Gourdin, representing the 372nd Infantry of Boston, in the running broad jump and javelin throw. DeHart Hubbard was scheduled to take part in the meet, but at the last moment a telegram was received advising that he could not be present Director 1 L Watson, of the Department of Physical Education, reported over three hundred entries. The points scored were as follows: Collegiate-Howard, 68, Lincoln, 23; Interesholastic-Manassas, 27; Bordentown, 17; Storner, 14; Stuyvesant High School, New York, 10; Dunbar High School, 5; Hampton High School, 3; Baltimore Vocational, 3; Morgan, 3 CUBAN STARS BEATS HILLDALE, 14 TO 6--2 HOMERS FOR DIHIGO CUBAN STARS BEATS HILLDALE, 14 TO 6--2 HOMERS FOR DIHIGO Philadelphia Pa. The Conal Stars came back and evened the count with the Hilldale Club by bouncing the Darby Dassies a severe drubbing at Hilldale Park by the score of 14 to 10. With four hurlers doing a poor job of the pitching choreo for the home team it looked like a parade from the bullpen to the box and from the box to the showers. Charlie Henry started the tray against manager Pumper's invading forces. Henry only yielded three hits during his three and a third innings on the peak, but one of these blows was a home run and mixed with three free tickets and two errors by his supporting cast he staked the visitors to six runs and is credited with the defeat. Cockrell was then pressed into service and his benders were "duck soup for the slanders" like more runs were added to the Cubans' last before Cockrell drilled out at the scene in the sixth. With the visitors seven runs in the lead Hank Perry a rookie burler was sent off. Bolden on the seventh, inning, he blanked the lies in the second out at point, a trouble in the next frame was three more tables were rolled up the Cubans two of them being home run drives. Bullet Campbell pitched the ninth strike and proceeded in scoring. Martin Dhigo, the elongated dwarf sacker of the Stanhams had at other day on as fat as hitting a corner he pounded out two home runs and a single out of four trips to the plate and ran his string to seven out of eight trips to the plate in the two contests. Dhigo's first name in the initial inning of play was Crespo on first the ball clearing the right mid tees. Again in two right with Perry pushing and their own first catch he hit one in the right field cleaker. Oma followed Dhigo's hit to the guttah and hit a home run to the park the ball getting past home and Hoggie and sliding into a hold truce. Bizz Marke completed the homers of the day, sharing one with Hoggie and the right field truce with Bizz Marke. He landed in the tenth inning and held the leads in the key have Holdlahd figured in the tenth two getts.

In fact, it was declared the best picture produced in 1925. The Merry Widow in pictures comes somewhat like an old trend. The story has been in tense setting at the picture and the color had sparkle of the Balkan locale has been restrained by Vera Stroheim who shows unqualifiedly that he was the logical man to stage the film Mar Murray scores a triumph in the title. It has been said that at though she has looked gorgeous before and has given vivid performances in all her pictures she has never equaled the performance she gives as The Merry Widow and John Gilbert as Prince Danolo proves he was the man for the difficult role. One of the most spectacular scenes of the picture is the famous Merry Widow walz.

It was opened with the Black aria, O del mio doce arder, which was followed by Ah rendir (Motrane) by Rossi. These were sung in Italian.

This latter number was charmingly rendered, and the wonderful thrill at the end, taxing to the utmost, as it does the singer's breath control was so splendidly done that the audience demanded an encore.

PALMER St Thomas VIII - Two events that occurred recently in St Thomas, added considerable pleasure and gairs to the life of this staid old tropical city. One was the visit and concert of the American Musicians, Mrs Maude Cinney Hare and Mr Richardson, and the other was the annual convention of the Virgin Islands Education Association The Hare-Richardson concert was given under the distinguished patronage of His Excellency Governor Martin French and Mrs French and was the occasion of a notable gathering at the Apollo Theatre. No more brilliant an audience has ever been gathered in that old building than that which greeted the famous American artist. The dazzlingly white and gold uniforms of the officers with the brilliant, many colored dresses of the ladies made a beautiful picture and Mrs Hare and Mr Richardson added new laurels to their well known reputation by their fine performance. The Virgin Island Education Association is composed of the actual teachers and those interested in education in these islands. Its president is Director of Education A F Lindbarg Since Mr Lindbarg coming to St Thomas the schools have taken on new life and the teachers have been greatly inspired by his self sacrifice, enthusiastic spirit, and they are giving him hearty loyal support. Over two hundred delegates were present at the meeting and the papers and addresses were unusually good. Many visitors were present at the meetings and were loud in their praise of the work being done in our schools. There was an exceptionally good exhibit of school work from the different islands. A striking feature of the convention was the eloquent addresses of Governor French at the Wednesday afternoon sessions. One of the most enjoyable features was the music which was furnished by the Navy Band and the very fine trained school orchestra under the leadership of Miss Amee Esterelman.

New York Wednesday ce- nring April 28. under the auspices of the N.A.A.C.P. Mr. Diton with a fine lyric voice of exquisite tim- ber soft mellow and appealing, thoroughly delighted and pleased the very large audience which had come to hear him. The program was divided into his groups of songs—three in Italian, four in German three in French, three English numbers and three Negro Spirituals. All of those were beauti- fully adopted to the well modulated voice of the singer who seemed to sing as pleasingly in one language as another. As usual, the Negro Spir- tuals were the most enthusiastically received. One of these "Swing Low Sweet Chariot" was arranged by Mr. Diton. Mr Dion also gave one or two instrumental numbers at the piano and one at the organ, which thoroughly delighted the audience. In every instance the artists showed himself a master in his field. Local talent asisting were Emma Derham soprano and Mrs Emma Ientons, reader A pleasing experience came to Mr Dixon and a few other friends after the recital.

WILSON, Prop. NEW YORK CITY Phone AUDUBON 3130 No. 10 Jim PAGE SEVEN seasons past in this city, was done by the Mozart Society of Fisk University in Memorial Chapel under the Baton of Leo C. Holden, director of the Flak Conservatory of Music. The vehicle of the society's performance was Edward Elgar's comprehensive and in places, very exacting, "King Olaf," an evening of song, mostly choral, in which the Norse King, in alliance with the "Prince of Peace," makes some headway in his own land and with his own people in introducing the religion from the South, and in turning the Northanders from their ancestral beliefs Perfection in tonal quality, balance in the four parts, precision in attack and stop, understanding and feeling in execution and a most brilliant control of dynamics—bringing out the most delicate pianissimi and the most thrilling fortissimo—those were some of the choral qualities which stamp the eighty singers of the Mozart Society as being thoroughly talented, and which show Mr. Hilden to be a drill master and conductor of real worth. As concrete examples of these accomplishments I point out the opening and the closing choruses the "Challenge of Thor, and the "Weath of Odin" in ballad form with the spooky refrain Dead rides Sir Morten of Engelsang." Although the men of the chorus were very good we must hand the palm to the women. Their work in the "Sirred scene exhibited a strong rich quality of tone in which the high-soured singers were equally melodious with the low and lowest voices. Among the soloists all members of the club the honors among the women should go to Cerilia A Brown the possessor of a clear sympathetic ingratiating soprano voice of lively sweetness and to Anna J Goodwin another soprano of fine parts who sang the role of "Thyr." Of the men Edward H Matthews bartonet showed the best combination of voice and training. Pleasing soli work was also done by Margaret C Pennybacker and Flore M Winnack spraes. Harvey Waugh Merrett A Hedgman and James L Harvey tenors and by Henry L Winn and William M Lotton bass. The instrumental part was often handled by Alice M. Vera, the pianist and the solist, both here in the hand of Grace Lars. In this concert Mr. Holder and his faithful co-workers and singers have attained new high levels in the production of artistic endeavors in North America. Fisk Universities and the arts are to be congratulated on the pro-ession of such a worker and such tireless socialist who have so hardly completed the forty-fifth season (eighty second concert of the Mozart Society).

Get One! Have you got a hobby? If you haven't, get one at once. Use it to "get out of yourself," to break a tiresome routine, to keep from unnecessary worrying over "little" things Of course, there hobbies and hobbies! Some are good and some are—not so good. The bets hobbies are those that not only take us out of ourselves for a time, but that also contribute to our physical well being. Horsesback riding and hiking are two such hobbies. Most of our out of door sports belong to that same group. Swing a golf club or a tennis racquet. Throw a ball Row a boat Paddle a canoe Pull a rope Swim Following an "indulgence" in any one of these hobbies, you will experience an increase in body energy. It will make you feel stronger. Your mind will become more active and wide-awake. Those sensations of well-being, hopefulness and the joy of living will be developed and increased. The "indoor sports" come next in value and they are the ones which we are likely to indulge more freely. In this group can be recommended the reading of light fiction, drawing or painting and music. Other valuable indoor hobbies are those that keep your hands as busy as your mind. Book-binding metal work and small carpentry are fine hobbies. To enjoy a hobby you do not need to be a master in it. If you keep at it however, you will soon find that you have passed way beyond the amateurish stage. Find out what you would like to do and then do it for the fun of the thing. Its full value will come to you in time. Virginia Business Men Form Fraternal Association Richmond Va.

Exceptions may be made in that are so richly endowed with the woman not have at think in terms of self. It is insticated as you wish on the subject Self-abnegation may be a beautiful breasts in which it dwells are extreme foregoing observations are not recited Pullman porters they are offered to failings Recently, this chronicle read a magazine article in which the writer, dealing with the subject of Pullman porters and their economic conditions, stated that the responsibility for the Pullman porter's industrial plight rested mostly with the porters themselves. Lack of group consciousness, selfishness and egotism were the principal hindrances, he opined, to these employees in their industrial and economic progress. These are undoubtedly obvious truths which no sensible porter can deny. But the charge moves one to inquiry: Are these failings specifically the failings of Pullman porters? How about other groups? Do they pass muster? Well, let's see if they do. In last week's issue of this paper, our friend, Mr. Lucian H. White, wrote an article proposes the Negro musicians of New York in which he described certain conditions of group indifference, selfishness and egotism which exists among the professional musicians of this city and which kept from reaping those economic benefits that should rightfully be theirs. Now here is a body of men whom we may correctly class as being of the skilled vocations. In following their line of work, they must sing with harmony, play with harmony, and, according to musical requirements, should think in harmony yet old selfishness, old individuality, keep them just where they are, insolar as group consciousness is concerned Directing our observations to a group a little higher-up on the social and-professional ladder, a group in which intelligence, if no other element, should play a major part in helping them appreciate the advantages in group cooperation, and what do we see and hear but the same old story—every man for himself. A typical case in point is that of a certain well-known Negro druggist of Harlem. From all reports this druggist receives only a small proportion of the prescription trade of the Negro physicians of the neighborhood in which his store is located yet this particular neighborhood abounds with Negro physicians. It is rumored that the reason for this is that this druggist will not give the doctors as much percentage on their prescriptions as is allowed by the white druggists of the vicinity. Of course, this is merely rumor, but it is prevalent in the neighborhood. As this chronicler observes the frailties and fattings of human nature, every mother's son of mankind is affected to a certain extent with the noxious germ of selfishness. Exceptions may be made in the case of wealthy philanthropists who are so richly endowed with the worldly goods of this earth that they do not have of think in terms of self. But the average man—well, be as sophisticated as you wish on the subject. Self-abnegation may be a beautiful and lofty trait but the human breasts in which it dwells are extremely limited in numbers. While the foregoing observations are not recounted as excuses for the failings of Pullman porters they are offered to show that we are not alone in these failings Picked Up Here and There An error was made in this column last week when it was stated by the writer that S J Freeman was chairman of the New York branch of the Pullman Porters Benefit Association of America. Mr Freeman is a member of the Board of directors of the association, and Mr Andrew P Condy, is chairman of the local branch. A large assemblage of porters is expected to be present at the annual memorial services of the association, which will be held this coming Sunday evening at Mount Olive Baptist Church, 189th street and Lenox avenue, Rev Williams P Hayes pastor. tor, at 7 o'clock. Special music will be rendered by the Penn Terminal Quartet and the combined bands from Penn Terminal and G C T districts. Mrs James I. Perkins of 200 West 142nd street this city has returned home after a six months stay in California. And judging from her present state of mind she is not pleased with racial feeling as it affects colored people in that state. It seemed that Mrs Perkins had made reservations for accommodations on a certain train out of Los Angeles. This train operates as one of the Deluxe trains of the Union Pacific Railroad, and is to the West what the New York Centrals 20th Century Limited is to the East. After being informed at Hollywood, the point from which she started that reservations on this train would he held for her at the Los Angeles station of this road, she became very indignant when on her arrival there the ticket seller declared that there was no reservation for her on that train but that she could be furnished with space in a tourist car which of course was at tarched to a much slower train than the one on which she had made preparations to travel. That information did not at all meet her approval. So being of a resourceful disposition she had a white man's private space for her on the train which the ticket seller told her was sold out, and which carried all Pullman cars. It was simply a case of race prejudice she avers. While in California Mrs Perkins husband visited her and on his return, several months ago, he declared that color discrimin- --- IN MEMORIAM OUR P Douglas (Ohlin Died Friday.
