The office of the New York City administration were soundly scored for their faithful neglect and the disgraced condition of the street in the residential section of the southside of Jamaica. It is in this action that a majority of the colored people live. Many of New York's leading and most influential colored citizens have purchased property and reside here. Their investments amount to hundreds of thousands of dollars. In fact their homes company taxable with those of any other section of Jamaica. Yet their value is deprived because of the lack of services and the neglected condition of the streets. The point was stressed at the meeting that while the property owners of the section pay the same rate of taxes as the property owners of other sections the main streets of the southside are entirely neglected by the city while the streets of the northside where the well-to-distances live are substantially constructed and kept in good repair. It amounts to taxation without participation. As a result of the meeting a permanent organization was formed to be known as the South Iamanda Property Owners Association whose primary object is to remedy and for a possible three displorable conditions.

BRIEF SURVEY OF THE NEW YORK AGE FROM BIRTH TO PRESENT: REFERENCES TO HISTORICAL DATA IN THE NEW YORK AGE in due date in the printer's wagon, some kind of the country. Its origin can be traced, according to Mr. Parker, to 1830, when the journal, "Rumor," was started by George Parker as its publisher. Associated with Parker was a group of intellectual young men, among whom were Walter Gordon Christopher, Richard Parker, James F. C. Hammond, Samuel J. Stokesley, Pierre Rarguet, Frederick Hammond, and "Rumor," which was well gotten up on books, printed in 12 pages, magazine size, 10 x 14 inches, became involved in financial difficulties, and Mr. Parker took into partnership with him 22 Thomas Poplok and William Sapppson, both of whom were historical printers. The nature of the paper was changed to the New York Globe in 1834. This publication was issued in treasury paper, made of four pages, which shape, was optimized by the Freeman, and "THE NEW YORK AGE." Becomes THE AGE in 1886..... 1884 a change in management caused the name to the "New York Freeman" with T. Thomas B. le proprietor and editor. In the political campaign of the Freeman, was a strong supporter of the British endowment of Protestation, did not publish articles and Mr. Fortune left New York for the 1886 campaign was made in the paper's name and then became NEW YORK AGR. Its editors at that time were Enantial Fortune jc, and B. B. and the present years, THE AGE became an important publication. In 1907 the paper came under R. Wooler, who has been its editor and In 1884 a change in management caused the name to be changed to the "New York Freeman" with T. Thomas Fortune as its sole proprietor and editor. In the political campaign of that time, "The Freeman," was a strong supporter of the Prohibition movement. The endorsement of Prohibition did not, however, popular with the public, and Mr. Fortune left New York to retire, and in October 1886 a statue was made in the paper's name and polished to treat that time were Enthaniel Fortune Jr., and Jerome B. Peterson. During the next twenty years, THE AGE became an influential political publication. In 1907 the paper came under the control of R. Moore, who has been its editor and publisher since 1886.

So in 11, TSE AGF moved to 230 West 19th street, where after the building had been remodeled, the largest and most complete plant conducted by Negroes in New York was installed.

Hayden is a window cleaner in the morning and a painter of marriages and landscapes in the afternoon. With the first occupation he has been making his living; with the second he has just won a gold medal and the first prize of $100 from the Harrison Foundation as organization to raise the status of the Negro, and the Commission on the Church and Religion of the Federal Council. He graduated from the university, mainly of education, near New York, Harbor.

He is a Negro, thirty three, standing 6 feet-2 inches in height and weighing 190 pounds. In the gloom of the tiny zoom, lighted by an oil lamp Hayden, wearing an orange-colored smock, looked even more gantle than he is, and the coffee hair brush in his fingers seemed no larger than a toothpick. It was the first time he had ever spoken to a newspaper man. One bleak afternoon in the late hall of 1912 he was standing in front of the Hippotrope at Sixth Avenue and 43rd Street. There was a chill in the air that did not appeal to him, for he had just come from his home and birthplace at Widewaters, Va. Across the street he saw the sign of an army recruiting office. "I always heard that trumpet man and a fancy time of it," he explained. He had just come from his home and thus case I thought I would have plenty of time to draw. "So I went across the street and told the Sergeant that I wanted to enlist." One month later he called for the Philippea. His regiment was the old 24th for entry and he did see his chance to draw a rifle under the protection of his Second Lieutenant Arthur Roe schen Boetscher's hobby as an engi- neer was map drawing and he learned of Hayden's ambition. The private became so proligent that on one occasion he received the commendation of Iren Frederick E. Fruston himself. At the end of his first three-year entertainment period he returned to work with a pocketful of money and a keen interest in Europe to study. But the war was quick and he was doing well. There he be- came part of the task. With a few next moves he was to take a com- bination.

In 1920 he came out of the army again and went to work for Uacle Sam as a letter carrier in this city. He did that four years. One summer he spent studying charcoal drawing at Columbia University, in the summer session and displayed a trippier to night duty while he was at Morrison Bridge. Then came the turning point in his career. He saw that he would, have no time to paint while he was a letter carrier. So he took the radical step of quitting, the position and applying half-time cleaning, windows, polishing brass and attending to furnaces on an hourly basis for wealthy apartment dwellers. Quite accidentally, one of the first he called upon was Victor Perard, art instructor in Cooper Institute. That artist gave the young man the job of keeping clean his studio as No. 55 Charles Street, and in old hours encouraged young Hayden to develop his art.

Sound, well-kept teeth are an asset to health. The direct relation between good teeth and good health is a complex one and not easy to determine, but study has proved that there is a distinct relation of this kind. Decayed teeth often become infected and the person from the infection may spread through the system, tittling sturges trouble. Decayed teeth, or upper and lower teeth which do not fit well together, also damaged teeth, may make it difficult for a person to chew his food properly. This in turn will impair his digestion, and may cause illness. In addition to the harm decayed teeth only do not affect entire physical condition, they are frequently a cause of bad breath, and they gradually impair an individual's appearance. The proper bone care of the teeth includes brushing them on airing in the morning, after every meal and before going to bed. A piece of dental floss should be drawn back and forth between the teeth after meals, in order to remove any particles of food which may be caught on the surfaces of the teeth and between them. In brushing the teeth use a brush with quite stiff bristles of uneven length. It is better to choose a relatively small brush because all parts of the teeth are reached more easily with it than with a larger one. Use an up and down move-saint, never brushing across the mouth.

Speaking of the feeling towards America, Miss Carper said that the Africanans look to America as a golden land; which will give them everything they need. They are eager for more missionaries; they want help educationally, but most of all they look to America to help them serve the race, gobless. Because we have Christianity and education here in America, they feel we should lead them in the matter of race Africa. And here in America there is no institution which has made a greater contribution to this problem than Hampton Institute. Miss Garney concluded her tribute to Hampton Institute by saying that "There is no institution on the face of the earth menpitted more in Africa than Hampton."

Mundoy of Hampton gets the call closely pushed by Patterson of A. and F. and Boykins of St. Paul. Backs Backs She has been another season of heavy play backs and the fight for staller positions was hot and furious and what have you. The field was filled with Shields of Union, Williams of Hampstead, Coleman, of St. and St. Moore and Brown, of Va. Bromham, Birch of St. Park, Baken of Hampstead, and Laws of A. and F. Hire is the best array of backs in the pitcher, and their paw grasp, up exceptional strength, but their those who want to the foreground with a great deal to open, and Williams of Hampstead, and Coleman of A. and T get the halfback assignments, while Brown of Seminary takes off the fullback honors. Quarterbacks And this has been another tight scramble. Since the work of the quarterback has almost entirely been merged with that of the other backs it has been almost imperative that a candidate for this position be possessed, of more than the ability to general, which in itself is a potent factor. Usually the backfield is referred to as the four backs and not three backfield men and a quarterback. In most cases, it is true that it is the four backs, because this quarterback is looked upon as being comprised of four men who carry the ball with almost equal ability. Since this is true, a quarterback is called upon to do more than direct team play through calling signals. He is also expected to do some, if not as many things as the rest of the backs, such as running, kicking, passing, blocking and tackling. The candidates are Epps, of Va. Normal Breaux, of Union Wedhee, of Va. Seminaur, and Henderson, of the Army Butler, the officer that has been narrowed down to the first five candidates, have proved fine quarters, possessing rare ability in team generalship; but where one was minus, the pitcher was plas, and very much so. It has been hard to choose between the two, but when it comes to all around play, which means not doing one or two things so well that it borders on the scintillating, but being able to do many things and doing those well, although Epps has proved a wonderful general and a wonderful runner and passer, he is over-shadowed by Breaux who not only is a worthy general and a fine runner, but is a wonderful passer and kicker both from placements and drops and the la ter gets the call Most Valuable Player concerning the most valuable placer to his team. In the association there has been little or no difficulty in the choosing Epps or La Normal flowers, above the rest, on the lot and easily gets the assignment. He has been a potent factor in every thing the Petersburg school has done. He has proved the backbone of the aggregation and the shining light of every campaign. Not that Virginia Normal was a one man team but the work of Epps contributed largely to the victories garnered by the eleven and the many hold stands the team made in the face of very still and severe opposition.

Claflin, however, threatened to score when she was about 30 yards from goal, and Blake attempted to place kick. In the latter part of the period Benedict, by means of a good offensive attack, worked the ball to the Panthery 15 yard line, before the end of the quarter. In the second period as the result of the consistent gains of Blake, Gregg and Dubra, the ball was near enough for Blake to make a successful place kick thereby scoring 3 points for Claflin. In the second half Benedict was able to make a touchdown when Wilson, the fleetty tackle of Benedict, captured a fumbled punt and carried the pigskin over. Benedict failed to make the try for point. Notwithstanding the fact that this break had given Benedict the lead, the Claflin Panthers were undamaged and determined that this was their game. They quickly worked the ball near Benedict's goal line and here another break was against them, for as Gregg was carrying the pigskin over on the fourth down for a touchdown he fumbled and despite the fact that the ball was recovered by one of his teammates across the line, it was given to Benedict for a first down. Benedict punted to Claflin. And then, with an ohrush and aerial attack that demanded the admiration of the many spectators, the Panthers scored a touchdown when Dubra slipped over the line, the extra point by means of a trick play was also carried by Dubra. Shortly after this, what, is probably the most spectacular play of the game Blake intercepted one of Benedict's passes and ran 30 yards for a touchdown for Claflin as he failed to kick goalfully inside the oppre loop in favor of Claflin.

Thanksgiving Day by breaking the Southern University (Louisiana) team 23 to 0 in a game played throughout the first quarter by the second team. In spite of Tuskegee's four first downs and acute against the blank sheet for the visitors, the university boys made splendid showing in the first period. Their well-timed taddies and consistent line plays were well executed. Early in this quarter, Southern replaces Anderson with J. Harrison at right end, and his brilliant playing was outstanding throughout the game. Tuskegee scored its first touchdown after an exchange of punts, on which they gained about thirty-five yards, and a series of line plings by Stewart who carried the pike in over the last mark. The second quarter opened with cheers from the grandstand as the first team threw off their blankets, and gave up the benches to their juniors. The universities which was expected from the visitors because of the change did not materialize, and they played with the same skill evidenced in the first quarter. Forward passes were intercepted and blocked, line plungers were held for no gains, and end runs were cut off by the pithy visitors' Stevenon's spectacular field-goal, against the wind, from the 40 yard line, brought the score to nine points. The second half opened with Stevenson's 35 yard kick off which was returned by Captain Edmond for 49 yards. Most of the ball becked the ball was held by Turkegen in the visitors territory, but without any significant gain; Sanktila, however, crossed for the second touchdown Stevenson added the extra half by a kick from placement. Beginning with the last quarter, the first team was gradually replaced by second and third string man who opened holes for Shanklin's late attempt resulting in a touchdown by Nassif Harris applied the final point by a place kick.

The doing away with separate schools in New York was, perhaps, the most conclusive and beneficial on the things The Age stood for from the beginning and now stands for, and in bringing this radical reform about Mr. Moore was as determined and active as I was.

DABNEY Dalney Publishing Company and Office of the Union, Cincinnati, O. I more than appreciate the more than kindly efforts you have made and are making in furthering the growth of a literary plant, that began lifting its head upward over a half century ago. The exaggeration is not so extreme as it may seem, since I well recall the prose in the shape of love letters and poems that the teachers called lampions. My memories of those days are most vivid. The whippings I received for a too liberal use of the pen have rendered them indelible. W P. DABNEY, From Mme. C. J. WALKER CO. The Madam C. J. Walker Mfg Co. 640 North West Street Indianapolis, Indiana. I notice that The New York App will be celebrating its Fortieth Anniversary on December 18th. This is significant in itself. A proof that has been continuously before the American people for thirty years, needs no other evidence, proclaims To my mind the New York Age has been one of the best edited, most dependable and reliable race papers that we can boast of. Not only that, I think the outstanding thing about The New York Age is that it has been consistently a race paper, not a reed blown by every wind but it has hewed to the line for the best interest of our group, and at the same time it has been newsy, interesting and readable for all groups. I want to congratulate The New York Age on its Fortieth Anniversary and hope for it forty years more of continued racial service From Mra. A. R. MITNAUL Priaceton, N J Let me congratulate you celebrating 40 years of The New York Age.

I have been a regular reader of The New York Age for many years and know of no other weekly I like nearly as well. With best wishes from one who is willing to assist in any good cause. I am Yours truly Dr. JAMES E. ROSE Pastor. M Olivet Baptist Church Rochester, N. Y From CHAS 8 JOHNSON, Editor of OPPORTUNITY On the occasion of the Forneth Anniversary of the New York Age I am prompted to commute my admiration of certain high qualities of journalism which this paper has consistently maintained. Its editorials in my judgment, have distinguished themselves in the pertinence of their subject matter, in the cool intelligence with which these questions are handled with and, most impressively, in the sound Judgment of the policy guiding these tempered by maturity and hard sense; there is little personal spleen. Moreover, there is a quality of fearlessness about its news; not the dare-devility of scandal mongering, but a crusading spirit which seems to want a clean community quite as much as it wants circulation. It stamps itself, not merely by the trash it refuses to print, but by the amounts of news of constructive social value which carries prominently. To have lived forty years with such policy and practice is nothing short of remarkable, and felicitate you, and salute you with the honest gestures of my respect. From Col. ARTHUR LITTLE Former Commander of 569th Inf. N. Y, N. G. I have just heard that you are celebrating this month the fortieth anniversary of the useful life of The New York Age." and I feel that I must offer my congratulations not only as a friend of the Editor and publisher, but as a reader of your paper of ten years standing. Any observing New Yorker by searching his memory and making a mental tabulation of the wrecks and changes of forty years in the news paper and periodical field must be inspired with a sense of appreciation of unusual accomplishment merely in the fact that your paper is forty years old. My admiration and spirit for celebration is based upon something deeper than that. Many years ago I heard Rev John R Paxton preach a sermon in which he painted a vivid picture of the difference between "The Richman" and "The Man of Riches." I have noifiable knowledge as to whether you are a man of riches or not, or whether the New York Age is a business institution of riches, but I know that you are a rich man and that your purpose is a rich journal because you have registered with your fellow men and in the community which you serve as courageous and right-hearted, square knoters for cleanliness in government, decency in private life and common sense progress in the great Maryland first was taken into the residence of Colonel William Hayes, who about ten years ago—when he invited me with appointment to the office of Regimental Adjutant of the old 10th New York, and entrusted me with the internal administration of the Regiment—he naturally gave me the best advice he could do help me in my work, his advice being founded of course, upon his own experience. One of the major pieces of advice that he gave me was - Trust Pred Moore of The New York Age. He is a true friend of the colored race and as such a true friend of our Regiment because he knows that in the permanent triumph of our Regiment along lines of conservativeness a real step towards a happy solution of the so called "Colored Problem will be accomplished. In obedience to the orders of my commanding officer I trusted Fred Moore In later years when I had no commanding officer within the Regiment I continued to trust Fred Moore upon the basis of my own experience I have never been disappointed in that trust I renew my congratulations to The New York Age upon its attainment of forty years of age, and I offer my best wishes for a continued long life of prosperity and usefulness From Rev WM LLOYD IMES Pastor of St. James Presbyterian Church 59-61 West 137th Street N Y C It is a great pleasure to meet you to know that the 40th anniversary celebration of The Age is at hand and I write to congratulate you and to wish for you the continued success in the field of journalism which you so well deserve The Age under your leadership is not afraid to stand for clearness of public and private morals and for this great auxiliary work with the Church I want particularly to commend you and to say that the churches that are forward looking and earnest in their work are happy to work to cooperate with, this courage for righteousness Not only personally but also on behalf of St James Presbyterian Church accept heartiest good will and food speed in your work From JAMES H HUBERT, Executive Secretary New York Urban League In Social Service Work among Negroes 302 204 West 19th Street, New Yo City For several years I have watched the progress of The New York Age, of regard to new only as a new paper the counts for much in the idea the Negro in Harlem and the nation, but as one of the indispensable institutions. Wherever one goes in these United guard for The Age and especially for the policies and high order of news, I find. The Age frequently referred to as "a newspaper with character." Perhaps it has not reached as large a number of people as have some other papers, but I doubt that any has had a greater influence one thing that has impressed me forcibly is the quality of its readers. It is not sensational and therefore does not appeal to the hot pollot, but is essentially the organ of the conservative business man, being widely read by all professional classes and leaders in all walk of life. As I recall its forty years of success in championing the cause of racial and social justice and consider the intense struggle that all Negro journals have had to wage, I realize that even the age of "The Age" is an achievement of no mean signifi cane. The staff of the New York Urban League appreciates, in no small way, the cooperation and support given by The Age in its struggle to extend the program of social service. I know of no organ that has played a bigger part in this crusade for better health, better housing, wholesome recreation, better erment and interracial good will. We felicitate you on this your forty eenth anniversary in the hope that it may be a real COMMUNI CEMENT and, a re-dedication to the great task that lies before us for a cleaner, healthier, happier and more prosper pus community. We doff our hats to the venerable editor, Freed R Moore and his splen did corps of workers. Cordially yours, JAMES H. HUBERT. Executive Secretary. From WAYT TERRY Realtor of New York and Brockton. Please accept my congratulations on this tour. Fortieth Anniversary have been a constant leader of The Age for a number of years, and I frank to say that I have always found it to be a valuable source of inspiration and information. This paper has remained and is still rendering a distinct service to the Negro race in that it is fearless and a race champion. It is fearless in its challenge against injustice whether the attack is on the man in a high or low position. I has waged a great fight here in New York against all forms of evil sometimes at the risk of the editor's life and stands ready to encourage and help promote the things which make for peace and prosperity. I do not think any home is quite complete without a copy each week of The New York Age. I extend to the editor Mr. Fred R More and his staff best wishes for a Merry Christmas and a Happy and Prosperous New Year. From Dr M V BOUTTE Proprietor Boutte's Pharmacy 137th Street and 7th Avenue Dermot the man with others who are congratulating the New York Age on having reached its 40th mile stone and you for having been its publisher for 20 years. I am a constant reader of the Age and feel that there is no newspaper of our group with a sane editorial policy or with a more less editable. The report table is Harlem should be everlasting, a grateful to the people of Harlem, a pamphlet blinker to the Numbers and against the selling of prison as liquors by foreign emigrants in the community. I feel certain that as the years roll on your service and the service of the Age to New York and our race everywhere will loom larger and larger. From Rev W C BROWN Venture Fleet Sgeet A M K Zum About first time and is adequate, fulfilling the purpose of its system. The work is many researches in that daim and in deserves a need for some medium and presents a new paper here better than the New Age and no editor has evidenced higher moral claims than the present editor of The Age. Usage is traditional with the Age and his tradition is quite narrow, as he by the time of the editors the authorities of the law and against those who would corrupt the morals and defame the womanhood of the race. The forces of wickedness have challenged civil and church authorities and all other agencies for civic righteousness. The Age was foremost in accepting this challenge and has sometimes been single handed in the fight. Certainly there is hope for any group so long as it has men who will not submit to unwholesome conditions. I wish, therefore to congratulate the New York Age for the service it has rendered the nation and the support it is giving the church in its fight for a better social order. Mrs. CECELIA C.

Thomas, Fortune, and his associate, Jerome R. Peterson, as well as under the courageous direction of Fred R. Moore and Mr. Peterson, has maintained journalistic traditions worthy of all praise. As an exponent of public opinion, and in setting forth ethics standards, with respect to the many sided life of the colored people of America, it has won high place and regard Throughout its forty years it has not only sought in every way possible to advance the political, religious, literary and business development of the race, but it has also been a training school for young Negro writers. In fact, many now recognized as leading writers and expents of journalism among us, had their first "try out" on The Age "The Studies of the Negro Press" by Det wiler and her husband give high praise and high place to The Age. In extending my congratulations upon the Fortieth Anniversary, I beg to express the hope and the sentiment that The Age under its resent management will continue to merit the some high place and reputation has won as a journal of though and opinion I am sure that the independence and integrity of The Age's editorial management and fidelity to the best interests of the race it represents will still be maintained and continued EMMETT J.

It seems just a short time ago when as a girl in Grammar School No 80 of this city, my late teacher Miss Mary F.

In his annual message read before the closing session of the sixty-ninth Congress, President Coolidge made the following reference to lynching, a crime seen at its worst in what has been termed "the Aiken Butchery," in South Carolina: TWO UTTERANCES ON LYNCHING. In his annual message read before the closing session of the sixty-ninth Congress, President Coolidge made the following reference to lynching, a crime seen at its worst in what has been termed "the Aiken Butchery," in South Carolina: The social well being of our country requires our constant effort for the amelioration of race prejudice and extension to all elements of equal opportunity and equal protection under the laws which are guaranteed by the Constitution. The Federal Government especially is charged with this obligation in behalf of the colored people of the Nation. Not only their remarkable progress, their devotion and their loyalty, but our duty to ourselves under our claim that we are an enlightened people requires us to use all our power to protect them from the crime of lynching. Although violence of this kind has very much decreased while any of it remains we cannot justify neglecting to make every effort to eradicate it by law. The education of the colored race under Government encouragement is proceeding successfully and ought to have continuing support. An increasing need exists for properly educated and trained medical skill to be devoted to the service of this race. Contrast this with the utterance of a speaker at the dinner of the New York Southern Society, Dr. Edwin Mims, a professor of Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tedin., shif author of a book entitled "The Advancing South, Dr. Mims said: Contrast this with the utterance of a speaker at the dinner of the New York Southern Society, Dr. Edwin Mims, a professor of Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Teen, dhil author of a book entitled "The Advancing South, Dr. Mims said: "There is a South that practices and justifies lynching and another South that believed it is unjustifiable under any and all circumstances and is resolutely determined to put an end to it. "Georgia, that has furnished far too many instances of the first point of view, recently has sent to the penitentiary for terms raising from six years to life imprisonment the leaders of a mob. All honor to Judge Reed for his courageous maintenance of the majesty of the law! May South Carolina now follow suit and punish the mob that lynched Negroes! "There is a South that boasts of an original contribution to the Nation in the organization of the Kn Klux Klan, and a South that believes the Klan is un-American and un-Christian, and that holds out the helping hand to every race and creed." There is a vigor and assurance about the utterance of the Southern speaker that are lacking in the mild deliverance of the Chief Executive of the nation. No one can imagine any member of Congress being spurred on to the passage of the Dyer Bill, or any other anti-lynching legislation, by the assertion that it is the duty of an enlightened people to use its power to protect any class of citizens from lynching. Not a word to show the enormity of the crime that is creating communities of murderers and threatening to extinguish civilization in certain sections of the country. The wiping out of lynching is as much in the interest of the whites of the South, as in that of the blacks, as the former have to bear the responsibility for its toleration and encouragement. It should be the duty of the nation to eradicate it as a menace to its integrity, not merely to protect its colored citizens. Dr. Mims came nearer to a proper conception of the enormity of lynching and the duty of the South itself to do away with it in favor of the maintenance of the law. Whether the South has the inclination and the power to do this remains to be proved. South Carolina has so far failed to meet the test despite the courageous prodding of R. Charlton Wright, publisher of the Columbia Record, and those of his way of thinking. If President Colidge really wants to stop lynching, he must speak in stronger terms and call upon Congress for specific action.

LOOKING BACK FORTY YEARS Forty years ago when The Age first as- sumed its present name and style, after sev- in years of struggle as Rumor, the Globe and the Freeman had prepared the way. New York City was far from being the world metropolis that it is today. Its population was fixed at one and a half million people and the Brooklyn Bridge opened for traffic in 1883 was still one of the wonders of the world. The era of the skyscraper had not yet set in and most of the downtown bus- ness and office buildings employed colored insulators who supervised the cleaners and Forty years ago when The Age first asumed its present name and style, after seven years of struggle as Rumor the Globe and the Freeman had prepared the way. New York City was far from being the world metropolis that it is today. Its population was fixed at one and a half million people and the Brooklyn Bridge opened for traffic in 1883 was still one of the wonders of the world. The sea of the skyscraper had not yet set in and most of the downtown business and office buildings employed colored janifors who supervised the cleaners and elevator attendants. The elevated roads were the latest improvements in rapid transit and subways were regarded as pine dreams. Grover Cleveland was serving his first term as President of the United States during this period and Frederick D. Grant son of the Union general and former President, suffered inglorious defeat as the Republican candidate for Secretary of State of New York, he being head of the ticket, the governor's term not having expired. Gen John A. Knapp of Auburn was the head of Le Flow and others were the leading local politicians of the race. Considerable feeling was stirred up against the Republican candidate because of the report that while at the West Point Military Academy he had participated in the ill-treatment and ostracism of the colored cadets. This was dealt in behalf of the candidate through The Age, which took an active part in the campaign. At this time the colored population of New York was distributed in the old Eighth ward and the 'enderloin, running from Bleecker street uptown west of Sixth avenue as high as the streets in the Thirties. The churches which had been grouped in the neighborhood of Bleecker street, slowly joined in the uptown movement. Bethel went from Sullivan street to West Twenty-sixth street, west of Seventh avenue, St. Philip's having left Mulberry street and located a block farther east on the same street as Bethel. Zion remained for a while at West Tenth and Bleecker streets, and Abyssainia on Waverly place. The Catholie Church of St. Benedict the Moor was established during this period on Bleecker street, removing several years later to West Fifty-third street, while St. Mark's was located on West Thirty-fifth street. Mt. Olivet was started on the latter street while St. Mark's was located on West Thirty-fifth street. Few of the pastors of those days have survived the changes of location, a notable exception being the present rector of St. Philip's P E Church. As the churches kept pace with the uptown movement of population, most of them became more institutional in their work, adding and developing departments for social work along community lines and fostering organizations for social and athletic purposes. in an economic standpoint the race had exceptional advantages in those days due to the absence of competition in certain lines of industry. The janitor service of business and office buildings, combined with the serving of lunches, was a lucrative field in which the active and enterprising workers with executive ability found substantial rewards. Many of them made a comfortable living and laid aside a competency for their families through their monopoly in this line. Others with equal ability and special skill in the culinary art had established themselves as caterers, headwaiters, stewards of clubs and steamboats, and in other vocations such as barber shops which were considered as the special pursuits, set apart for the darker race. But competition soon entered into all these vocations and the skyscrapers brought white superintendents to take the places formerly held by colored janitors. To offset this seeming economic loss, we have to credit the numerous occupations opened to colored workers in other fields, so that their callings are more diversified, not as lucrative. The educational development of the race in New York has proceeded somewhat along the same lines as the industrial development. The four schools labeled "Colored" and set aside for the instruction of colored youth were finally either wiped out or absorbed into the general system. The first attempt to do away with them without providing for the teachers was successfully resisted, with the aid of Grover Cleveland when he was governor, but the final absorption of both schools and teachers was hailed as a step forward in the practical teaching of democratic principles. Since that time we have had a public school system free from discrimination on account of color, where teachers are appointed on merit and their standing in examinations. The race has had four members of the Board of Education, three in Brooklyn and one in Manhattan, who aided in bringing about these bereficent results. They were Dr. Philip A. White, Thomas McCandt Stewart, Samuel R. Scotton and Dr. Eugene P. Roberts. The teachers of the race now included in the system, from the kindergarten to the high school, are numbered by the hundred. In all these movements for the upift and development of the race in politics and in industry in religion and in education The Age has sought to play its part as an inspiration to sustained efforts at betterment in every line never accepting defeat but struggling onward toward success. It has further demonstrated that a paper of its class can be made a self supporting medium of news and opinion for the readers whom it represents by force of their continued confidence and support. Negro journalism is set in the early stages of its development but it has outgrown the early phase of mere propaganda and entered upon the legitimate career of recording the doings of the race in every field of endeavor, stimulating progress, warning against harmful tendencies and providing a free forum for the interchange of opinion on vital issues. The forty years or more that The Age has covered have been truthful in human ex Not all of the contributors to The Age were amateurs in the line of newspaper work, any more than they were in the field of politics. John Stephens Durham who for several years conducted a column of personal opinion in The Age, was an editorial writer on an old established Philadelphia newspaper before he became consul at San Domingo and later minister to Haiti Randolph C. Lewis who contributed bits of verse was a reporter on The World and later city editor of the Herald. Other writers of verse were William H. A. Moore and Lewis H. Latimer. It was through The Age that Ida B Wells-Barnett started her anti-lynching campaign. Among the contributors of the other race were Senator Henry W Blair, the author of a bill for Federal aid to education in the South, George Foster Peabody, the financier and philanthropist and many others. The post of special correspondent at Washington was held at various times by such acute and forceful writers as Archibald H. Grimke, Robert H. Terrell, John E. Bruce, Richard W. Thompson, F. L. Thorntor, Willis T. Menard and others competent to report and analyze the developments of politics and legislation of the times in which they wrote. The Age has had the advantage of contributions on both spiritual and secular affairs from such members of the clergy as Bishops Henry M. Turner Daniel A. Payne, Alexander Walters, Dr. Henry A. Monroe, Dr. George F. Bragg of Baltimore and many others. Richard T. Greener, once secretary of the Grant Monument Fund and a civil service examiner under Mayor Grace and T. McCants Stewart, afterward chief justice of the Supreme Court of Liberia, were lively controvergialists through the columns of The Age. The luminous writings of James Weldon Johnson as contributing editor are too fresh in the memory of today's readers to need further comment, while the pungent emanations of William Pickett are still to be read with relish. But the list of brilliant writers who have collaborated in making The Age what it is today, could be extended almost indefinitely, in covering the space of over forty years. Suffice it to say that their work has not been without due appreciation both on the part of publishers and readers. They have done valiant work in the cause of racial uplift. POWER OF THE RAM'S HORN Under the title "From the Ram's Horn," some thirty-five years ago there was printed in the Journalist a publication treating of newspapers and newspaper writers conducted by Allan Forman an article written by I. Thomas Fortune dealing with the development of Negro journalism. The body of the article has been lost to history, but the striking title survived and suggested an investigation adorn its significance. The Ram's Horn was found to be the same given to a paper published by Will A. Hodges and Thomas Van Reneder in January 1917. The meaning of the little was explained by reference to the book of Joshua where in the fifth verse of the sixth chapter it says, 'And it shall come to pass that when they make a long blast with the ram's horn, and when ye hear the sound of the trumpet, all of the people shall shout with a great shout and the wall of the city shall fall down flat and the people shall a crenel up every man straight before him. The age THE NEW YORK AGE'S FORTY YEARS OF PROGRESS appearance of the Ram's Horn. The first colored newspaper published in New York City, according to the authority of "The Afro-American Press and Its Editors," by I. Garland Penn, was Freedom's Journal or The Rigits of All, both edited by John B. Russworm. This was in March 1827, so that Negro journalism is now completing its first century. A copy of this sheet was preserved in the collection of the New York Historical Society Associated with Mr Russworm in the publication was the Rev. Samuel E. Cornish. The publication was suspended in 1830. Following this pioneer publication came the Weekly Advocate, Philip A. Bell, proprietor, the name later being changed to the Colored American. At one time Dr. James McCune Smith became its editor, and several years later the Kerr Charles B. Ray became proprietor. It was published until 1842. The same year the Elevator was established by Stephen Myers at Albany and the National Watchman at Troy, the latter published by William G. Allen, assisted by Henry Highland Garnet, afterward followed by the Clarion. Then came the People's Press, by Thomas Hamilton and John Dias, and The Mystery edited in Pittsburg by Major Martin R. Delaney papers issued during this period included the Impartial Citizen by Samuel Ward at Syracuse, the Colored Man's Journal in New York, the Alienated American by Prof. W. H. H. Lay at Cleveland, the Mirror of the Times in San Francisco by Mifflin W. Gibbs, the Herald of Freedom in Ohio by Peter H. Clark, until in 1856 the Christian Recorder was established in Philadelphia with the Rev. Jabez Campbell as editor. In the sixties followed no notable publications, one being the Monitor, edited by Dr Rufus The Genius of Freedom was issued some time between 1845 and 1847 by David Ruggles as editor prior to the establishment of the North Star at Rochester. The latter was edited by Frederick Douglass and conducted on a higher plane than any of its predecessors. For sixteen years this paper continued fighting for Abolition, its name being changed to Frederick Douglass Paper Other COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS ON SAYINGS OF OTHER EDITORS With the injunction, "Don't Spend It All," the Saranath Tribune commented on the gains of the Christmas savings clubs in that city, as follows editorial from THE ACE was reprinted with a credit line attributing it to the New York World. We appreciate the delicate compliment involved in this appropriation of matter but would suggest that it is not quite in consonance with the ethics of good journalism or even with the statement printed at the head of the Herald's editorial column "Fairness to all guaranteed." We await with interest to see how the Herald will redeem its pledge that "redesign" will be cheerfully afforded to complain in accuracy and uniformity. Every year during the juxtapole season there are thousands of dollars distributed to persons who have been far-sighted and self-sacrining enough to participate during the gigs, in the Christmas savings clubs of the various banks. This year on the three Negro banks on the city, there will be $70,000 issued to the thirty-three hundred persons who have become a part of these clubs, and on the eleventh and fifteenth of the month checks covering this amount will be distributed to these persons. The star of the check received by each one of these juxtapole savers will of course depend on the amount each one paid into the club. Some will get a large check as the result of their having deposited large amounts during the post fifty-two weeks while others who were not in position to lay aside a very large weekly amount will get smaller amounts. All will receive in proportion as they have saved the average check being a little over twenty dollars. Will it all be spent in purchases for Christmas? The St. Lucie Herald of Richmond not only thanked Dr. Gordon B. Hancock for his letter to the Times Dispatch, in which he resented the Good Morning, Judge' column, but it also thanked the editors of the Richmond daily paper for their courteous and pamphaking messages and answer. It said The incident proves conclusive that we are getting over the ground in the proper sort of race relations in the South when such matters can be thrashed out in the forum of the public press without causing all feelings between the two races. We think it will allow the business editor complain that many of us make a tax greater outlay at the time than our customers pay. The white people in the South after all do not understand the colored people. These letters of correspondence, Doctor Hancock to the editors of the Time, Dispatch and the reply of the editors, prove this one fact as nothing else could prove it.

The school boards of this country are not likely to furnish employment to all colored males that have graduated, and the question naturally arises what will become of this large and interesting class of women? What will be their status in society and business? What will be bearing on the future of the race question? It is to be supposed that the number of good people who are bringing about this curious state of affairs by making laborers of their boys and ladies of their girls, have not studied the matter. We do not believe that they are observing the fact that the women of today. (the result of this system becoming apparent.) are incompetent wives for laboring men that the girl-lady of the Grammar and Normal Schools has learned, with all the other accomplishments, to be ashamed of uncultured brother, who was compelled to leave school to help earn means to keep her there; to be disgusted with the mother who broke her constitution*staining to make her a pet lady abounds* with so many women without hope or future, so highly cultured and intellectually fitted o ornament social life.

Oarsman Johnson (Sport News from "Rumor" Sept. 4, 1980) There is a story going the rounds that "Frenchy" Johnson, the colored sculler has sold his shells to one of his old opponents, Gen. Hosier and will not now any more, as he says there is no money in it. Be this story true or not and we hope it is only a canard, we cannot refrain from thinking of Mr. Johnson, when a member of the now defunct, Correpona Boat Club of Boston and how he worked to secure the recognition of the boating men of Charles River. His advent and first match proved an easy victory for him. We remember her well how indignant he was the afternoon previous to this race up in learning that the colored sporting fraternity were betting against him he took it to heart and swore to win that race or break an oar he did not break an oar but he won the race. We thought that after all it might do him more good than harm it would prove him a man of never before. His subsequent victories only helped it to emerge as in the good opinion we had of him as a coming star. We met him a winter night after match with Lee and their assmann at Jack on the hill. He spoke of the great trouble he had to overcome with and overcome the insults he had to bear in his account of his minute a Hirdan genteman art man, up to the end against his enemies and to the end that he was a Hirdan genteman art man. How was winning that case over his enemies how pleased he seemed to be to think that he had not only a great taste in a good man but had introduced to him a good man to be trusted in the future. to perfect himself in his arts until he should win an enviable name and position amid the foremost guardmen of the world, but his sudden determination to reconsider dashes to the ground all the bright hopes of his admiring friends. We suppose he has pleased himself if not his friends. But we can argue help, contrasting his action with that of Hart and Pegram, the two best walkers in the world, and that mainly due to their own perseverance and pluck; and to read that "Frenchy" who started off so promisingly that he made scores of friends, and had only to work to do what his brothers had done, retired laurelcas. For there is no one race he has since won that reflects the credit and honor, to say nothing of the satisfaction, that that first race did, on old Charles River. He will pass out of the public mind, only to linger in the memory of his friends, as a man devoid of ambition; a light that blazed but for a moment, and to the honor and glory of no one We cherish the kindiest of feeling toward Mr. Johnson, and only wish that some would ours would cause him to keep to the boat until he had made a reputation worthy of his strength and muscle. We do not claim that he can beat Hanlon and Courtney, but he could try. He claims that he can make no money. We deny that money is the only prize to be won in this world, tame, honor, and glory have actuated men to the performance of great feats; to be able to hand down to posterity a name that has been praised and sung, is no small matter to a colored man, be he from Boston or Virginia, and is lasting to the gold that augurd sordid nature seeks Let Mr Johnson make an honest effort to win for himself a few laurels before he retires. let him make an honest effort to do his friends justice and reflect some little credit upon the race to which he has the honor to belong. It is a duty he owes himself, to his friends, to his race. No man should elect to bury the talents given him, and if he does, it shows him to be either an attendant coward or a fool; either one of which are not worthy the notice of intelligent men and only fit for obscurity.

Frederick Douglass The Great Tribune. A Glance At The Labor Of The Modern Demosthenes. (Sketch Reprinted from Rumor." September 4, 1880.) As an illustrious example of genius asserting itself in spite of the opposition made by the upbringers of slayers, who denied its victory the right to prove manhood or to distinguish themselves from the brute creation, our celebrated creator stands on allure in bold relief a notable figure in the gallery of famous men.

Auld must have reached the good old age of 86. I saw him two years ago. He was then expecting to be called at any moment. My interview with him then was in every respect cordial, and I shall never forget his answer to my question as to what he thought of my conduct in running away. He said, with warmth, "I think this if I had been in your place I would have acted precisely as you did. I was never in favor of slavery, and had made up my mind, long before you ran away, to emancipate you and all my slaves at 25 years of age. Still, I don't blame you for running away when you did." "I told him then," said Mr. Douglass," that it was not because of any ill feeling toward him that I made my escape but simply because I wanted to be free. Capt. Auld was decidedly one of the best of his class on the Eastern Shore. I can truly say that no man in St. Michael's was more respected or deserved more respect than Capt. Auld. He was an upright, temperate, pious and conscientious man. I should be very glad to attend his funeral if it was in my power." The correspondent inquired of Mr. Douglass how long a time intervened between the time he ran away from, and his interview with Capt. Auld referred to above. "Oh!" he answered, "fourty odd years." Speaking further of the deceased he said. My first acquaintance with Capt. Auld was when he was Captain of the sleep Sallie Lloyd, which belonged to Col. Edward Lloyd, the grandfather of the present Col. Lloyd. It was up this capacity that he married Lucretia Anthony, the daughter of Aaron Anthony, and it was by this marriage that he became my owner. All of the foregoing reads like a romance and has more the air of a platonism than actual fact. It also affords a glimpse of whole-souled magnanimity that seldom obtains in the breast of ordinary man to the extent of revealed Christian doctrine. I love those who persecute three Mr. Douglass's given name in slavery was Frederick Bailey, and his mother was a slave woman. When a boy he master sent him to Baltimore to work, and there he learned to read and write in secret. He has graphically described this time and time again on the lecture platform, and in his written works. He settled in New Beedford after his escape and married and from that time on he was prominent in the Anti-Slavery movement, both there and this country. Hipore are money £10 having been contributed by English sympathers. Mr Douglass has been and is a favorite with, and an ardent admirer of the English people. At the time of his debut as an advocate for his race the position was filled by Charles Redmond who was looked upon as the ablest black man Shares $30.00 each Cash or terms on large amounts We have openings for men and women to sell insurance in the country. Locking entirely the force and appetility of actual genius, he was soon recognized as being decidedly inferior to this new light, that had so suddenly spring up. He soon distanced all speakers on the subject of freedom and justice to all men, without regard to color, and raised the subject itself so the prominent that it much deserved. A well known writer said: "His advent as a lecturer was a remarkable one. While and black men had talked against slavery; but none had ever spoken like Frederick Douglass. Throughout the North the newspapers were filled with the sayings of the eloquent fugitive. He often travelled with others, but they were all lost sight of in the eagerness to hear Douglass. His travelling companions would sometimes get angry and would speak first at the meetings; then they would take the last them, but it was all the same—the fugitive's impression was the one left upon the mind. He made more persons angry and pleased more, than any other speaker. He was praised and he was censured. He made them laugh, he made them weep, and he made them swear. His slave-holder's sermons were always a trump card. He swaked an interest in the hearts of thousands, who before were dead to the slave and his conviction. Many kept away from his lectures, fearing lest they should be converted against their will This magnetism seems to be inherent in the man; for upon every topic he commands the same enthusiastic, enraptured audiences. The same writer says, "that few persons can handle a subject with which they are familiar, better than he. There is a kipd of eloquence issuing from the depth of the soul as from a spring, rolling along its copious floods, sweeping all before it, overwhelming by its very force; carrying, upstelling, flagging its adversaries, and more dazzling, and more thundering, than the bolt which leaps from crag to crag." This is the eloquence of Frederick Douglass, one of the best mimics of the old age and the possessor of great dramatic-powers. Had he taken up the soak and huskup, instead of becoming a lecturer, he would have made as fine a corofanus as ever tred the stage. As a speaker, Frederick Doughlass has had more unifiers than almost any other Amurican, save, perhaps, Wendell Phillips In 1848, Mr Douglas turned his attention to literature, and began the publication of the "North Star," afterwards "Frederick Douglas's paper," which was grimly, successful. It may be truly said to his abilis) as an editor he due a large proportion of the work he has accomplished for the freedom of his race. In 1855, he wrote and enlarged his autobiography, under the title of "My Bondage and My Freedom." He supposed implication in the John Brown raid in 1859 led Gov. Wint of Virginia to make a requisition for his arrest. In 1863 when permission was given for colored troops, he availed in procuring men to fill up regiments. Urban most great speakers he is also a superior writer, and many articles from his pen will be rated equally with the productions of some of the best American authors. The issuing of Mr. Douglass's Journal was similar to his debut upon the lecture platform, a revelation. He had before that time made numerous efforts to accomplish something towards raising the standard of intelligence. Mr. Douglass's fame gave his paper a position none of the others could hope for—a standing among the first journals of the country. It may be safely said that in this position he was most useful to his race and proved satistically that the calling was the highest a man could fill. ! who inspires to do his fellowmen true service. In 1870 he became editor of the "New National Era," which he afterwards entrusted to his sons, Lewis and Frederick. In 1871 he was appointed secretary to the Commission at St. Domingo and on his return, President Grant made him a member of the Tetritorial Council of the District of Columbia. In 1872 he was elected Presidential Elector for large for the State of New York, and finally Marshall of the District of Columbia in 1877, which position he now holds. Mr Donglass is a man of earnest convictions and undoubted courage, and his character has never been impeached. He has often been severely criticised for the course he has at times taken; but after the bitterness of political strife has worn away, and when time has mellowed and chastened all things, there is little doubt that posterity will give him ungrudgingly the merit of being one of the ablest men that this country has ever produced. There is no doubt that Mr Donglass will play an unimportant part in the next Presidential election, being so firm and fast a friend, and unstinting advocate of the man whose candidature for the Presidency is so nearly a certainty. In conclusion, it may be said that Mr. Douglass, as might be expected, shows signs of advanced age, but his voice is firm, and his person strong and erect, and in the ordinary course of affairs, it is to be hoped that he will be spared for many a day, that his influence may be further felt in council of masters, in behalf of the race for whose elevation and salva-tion his life has been a saxonice Journalism Down In Venezuela By JEROME B. PETERSON (Former U. S. Consul to Venezuela) (A Consulat Raport Submitted to the State Department, Expirited from The New York Age of December 15, 1904.) From an interesting article credited to Variedades, an illustrated paper published in San Cristobal, which is counted one of the best of that class in Venezuela, are gleaned some pertinent facts relating to purification in that part of South America. The oldest newspaper in Venezuela, according to this writer, is El Fonografo of Maracasco. It has been in existence for twenty-six years. In this particular the Lake city is ahead of Caracas, the capital of the country, and it marks its superiority by the possession of another daily paper, Losacos del Zulua, which in another year will attain a quarter century of existence. The third newspaper in point of age is Lampos Coronado, of Coro, with twenty-two years in its credit. Then follow Boleim de Nocas, of Puerto Labello, with nineteen years, and finally, El Norero, the senior of the press of Caracas also numbering fifteen years of existence. The Writer of the Variegadas article attributes the comparatively short life of the press of Venezuela to the civil wars which have prevailed, and says that but for that cause there would have flourished such daily papers at La Opinion Nacional. El Federalista, and El Venezolano, with a record of thirty, forty and more years to their credit. In Mexico while, Argentina, and Peru there are papers that have been published for fifty years and more. He instances as an example El Comercio, or Lima, which has had a career of sixty years of uninterrupted daily issue. Mexico is credited as being at the head of Latin American countries in the matter of letters. Resides now setting the oldest organs of Spanish American journalists said to have an active empire in the first library, established in America, which is now at least three hundred years old. Probably, the oldest publishing point of continuous issue in Venezuela, which was not referred to in the Vareades articles because it is the official organ of the Government, in the Gobernía Official. This was established by a degree of President Gustam Blanco in 1872, for the publication of the laws, decrees, resolutions, and other documents issued in the exercise of governmental powers. It is a small sheet in folio form, printed at the National Printing Office, and contains no advertising. The Skiling daily of Caracas which enjoys the political favor of the Government in El Constitucional, which, although only in its fourth year, gives every appearance of vigor and prosperity, it is highest sheet of 8 pages, a liberal portion of which is devoted to advertising. The first page invariably has a short story and some verse, while the last page contains an installment of a serial story after the fashion of the French feminism, but advertisers present the greatest part of both these pages. The inside pages are devoted for editorial expiration, usually in favor of some defamation official or measure, and headed in the largest type possible, to notes of the day telegraph and cable more limited as to quantity, but fairly accurate; hotel arrival, cards, personal offices, and more advertisements. Among the advertisers, manufacturers of cigarettes, vapors, and patent medicines seem to demand the highest space. Promoters of gas generating plants are conspicuous in a recent issue with cuts of their apparatus. Physicians and drug more fragile to extent unknown in the United States. Streamships, hotels, residences, compisons, jewelry, art and clothing are among the other features of modern business like handled to public attention. The gas conveyers were the only articles advertised giving evidence on organ in the United States, except farrores, and this was due to the bittering on the cuts, as the advertisements proper were entirely in Spanish. Published partly in English is the Venezuelan Herald, in Caracas, which claims a circulation of 150,000 and devotes considerable attention to the finances of the country, its subtitle being the Venezuelan Engineer. Like most of the Spanish-American contemporaries, the Herald is chief of its editorial opening, especially on matters political, instead of the initial editorial columns set apart for the expression of opinion as distinguished from news based in the papers of the United States, the news items are frequently given with the common: of the editions appended. The contents are ascertified under such heads as "finance" "diplomatic notes" "personnel" with selected articles reproduced from the New York papers. Among the American advertisers are found manufacturers of typewriters and kodak.

Puerto cabello Venezuela When the Negroes part in the development of Harlem is written, history will accord John M. Royall credit for starting many movements that have teed for the betterment of his rate. Though comparatively young in years Mr. Royall in a pioneer civic and political commuter. He has been a busy life and few have withstood the criticism he faced upon him when he was fighting Harlem's battles. Back in 1913 Mr. Royall did something never before or since attempted by a Negro in this country. He formed a political party which was recognized by the State of New York the emblem of which was placed on all ballots cast in the election of that year. He called his party the Negro Civic League, the name afterwards being changed to the United Civic League and he was this party's candidate for Aldermann from the 21st Assembly District. almost of the planks of his platform, considered radical by the old line politicians of that day have since the war become realities and now both the Republicans and Democrats condee that Negro voters are outlifted to elective representation in the administrative affairs of the City of New York. In a campaign circular of the 1913 campaign, Mr. Royall asked the support of colored voters for the following reasons: Because he was a strong advocate of playgrounds for children, he was in favor of bath houses for the poor; more Negro policemen; Negroes in the Fire Department; Negroes in various departments of the city government; Negro physicians and interns in the city hospitals; Negro trained nurses in city hospitals; Negro representation on the Board of Health and the Board of Education; reduction of taxes on property; some street car fare for all Great New York; Subway extension, and for liberal interpretation of the fringe Law. Few colored politicians today realize the amount of technical information our needs to get out the literature for a new party and to have its inaugural place on the ballots of the states. And fewer still are there who would be willing to sacrifice their time and spend the money Mr. Royald spent in this campaign and the subsequent political fight which he managed. He was almost identical in the efforts of those above in the improvements for Negroes in Harlem. Mr. Royald is a pioneer and an successful real estate broker in Harlem. He followed in the footsteps of the late Philip A. Porter, Jr. generally credited with being the father of colored Harlem. Though primarily a business man he has always been interested in the arts and political improvement of the members of his race in New York and has always been willing to fight toward that end. One of the nights he be conducted almost single banded was crowned with success.

Royal is a native of Halifax County Va. and is a graduate of the Virginia Sapphire at Lynchburg. He came north when a young man and located in Jersey City but moved to Huntley in 1907 and entered into the real estate business with offices at 21 West 14th street. He was president of the local Business League when it entertained the National Negro Business League in 1890 and is now a member of the Board of Directors of the Association of Trades and Commerce, which functions as the local Business League of Halifax, Mr. Royal was, also one of the founders of Carthaginian Lodge, No. 47, F. and A. M., a member of the Knights of Pythias, the Chimneys and Southern Beneficial Leagues, the United Banquet Association and the Cabinet Cyclers. Mr. Royall does not believe that Negroes should confine their activities wholly to the support of their racial enterprises and organizations but should also support those civic organizations that are for the general good of the people without regard to race or creed. In pursuance of this policy he has been a member of the American Museum of Natural History, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the New York Botanical Gardens for a number of years. In 1912 he married Miss Pauline Craigford and they have one son, John M. jr., who attends the Spyder Junior High School at 129th street and Amsterdam avenue—a school maintained by the Board of Education for boys who one above the average in intelligence, as shown in their school work. No longer, very active in political life, John M. Royall is still intensely interested in the development of his race. And now that he has achieved a measure of financial independence, it is hoped that he will link up with some of the forces now carrying out the programs he started and work toward a bigger and better community life for the Negroes of New York.

In that year, he was sent to represent his class at the University at a lecture in Hotel McAlph. His lecture on "Money and Education" impressed his listeners and much that the president of the Colonial Finance and Trust Company offered Mr. George a position as traveling salesman for his bank. From that time on the rise of Mr. George in the financial world reads like a dream. Inside of six months' time, Mr. George's ability was deprived until he was made salesmanager of the Catholic Bldgstk and Trust Company with offices at 295 Broadway. In 1982 another large brokerage firm of $14,000,000 capitalization acquired Mr. George as their sales manager. Six months later he was promoted to the position of department trader. The Southern interests of the firm objected on the grounds that he was a Negro and Mr. George resigned. The president of the brokerage house, however, called on Mr. George and opened him in business under the name of the Federal Security Company of New York with offices in 2201 Seventh avenue in May 1921. This company was a subsidiary of the $13,000,000 brokerage house. On May 29, 1924, exactly one year after the formation of the subsidiary company, Mr. George bought out the interest of the main office and changed the name of his firm to H. R. George & Co. In December 1925 the company was incorporated with an authorized capital of $20,000 and the offices were removed to 2208 Seventh avenue where more spacious quarters were secured. The present office force of Mr. George is twelve salesmen and three photographers. The House of George does over 50 per cent of its business with a white chemist, approximately 50 per cent of which is done over the telephone. The firm is now listed in the 1926 Polka Encyclopedia of Bankers and Brokers of the World and is also a member of the Investment Bankers and Brokers of America. The firm specializes in domestic and foreign securities of high standing only and its foreign connections are in London, Budapest and Berlin. In investment field, the firm of H. R George & Co has music a real success and during its existence its patrons have always found the advice given by the firm as reliable, unbiased and worthy of consideration.

For full information address The Writer Hand Lord Oliver has due a great service to India by expounding the important workings of the mind of the Indian Government in constitutional matters, particularly regarding constitutional voting. In a letter to The Times (London) he charges the Government has long had a certain extent responsible for the continuation of the constitutional treaties. "There has been satisfaction in the action of the police and in police court practice, sometimes on the one side and sometimes on the other, encouraging each side to take liberties. This is almost universally assisted by responsible Indians who imply it (I do not say justly) to a deliberate and the part of the authorities to maintain all troubles as testimony against the possibility of constitutional progress." Of late the feeling referred to in the letter has been growing and gaining force in India. In spite of the professions of the Government about its anxiety to the different communities restured, its good faith faith unceremony of purpose have never been altogether above caption. Its action and general policy are not easy to retrace with its pains professions and backgroungs. If the Government has altogether a good will to maintain the existence of a certain manipulated balance in these matters. It will neither allow Hinden and Meissens to become united in common citizenship nor will it stand aside and let them settle their differences by resource to a civil war. The bankruptcy is anxious to show to the world that its consequence is necessary for the internal peace of India. The approach of the year 1929, when the grant of formal education is considered makes the difference all the more important. But it is not possible to deserve all the "apple all the time. And already impartial observers like Lord Oliver are seeing through it and even beckoning suspicions of the Government's good faith. They are beginning to feel that the Government is responsible for the continuance of the communal relation and that the talk about the HUDDEN HAND is not altogether unjustified. The communal tension has assumed a glastish shape. It has awakened the basest feelings and led to more hideous crimes. The continuance of such an atmosphere will do no good either to any community or the country, and taking a long view it will mean a serious blow to the prefeitee of the government. The rule of anarchy now obtaining in the Fab- THE BISHOP OF BISHOP'S COLLEGE A man is sitting in a room out of the rear rooms of the British Rail is the counting of the railway revenue allocates the government to the railways and provides them with the kind of jewels and jewellery. Lord Lloyd, as in Hirdate, and yet he joined the Government at law in affair to the government with Mackenzie, oppose the Hon. Hugh Squire and Oliver Hunt with the hon. Squire with Indian affairs, with Indian affairs will be required to deny that on the whole there in a permanent place in British Occupation in favour of the Majesty commonly apply on the ground of close proximity but more largely as a midweight against Hindu Nationalism. This sobly, alliance cannot from the very nature of things continue very long, however tempting as a temporary argument it may be. A little will surely cause when the Government would find it impossible to satisfy their PAYORITE WIFE. The real thing at the bottom of this alliance is that the British Government clearly wants to get possession both of Egypt and Turkey by throwing into the eyes of the Indian Muslims, who faced Kannah Pasha and a struggle of Agotepe Muslims, would now themselves duned would would require and realize the folly of selling their rights, rather than impugning it in mess of pressure. A bitter disillusionment must be in store for the Government of India and Muslims' hotel, if the policy decided by Lord Oliver is appealed to. Lord Oliver may or may not be right when he speaks of Britain's sympathy with Islam, but the idea of playing of Muslims with pretensions of sympathy does certainly come handy. It is not only Indian. Activists now that are telling HANDO the third party that to such a degree is capable for the present state of the world. When responsible British men like Lord Oliver come round to this view, it is time the Indian Government searched its conscience if it does carry about it any such inconvenient Ging. : Much Can About Cooperation. Long-Biennial had made another approach in his characteristically summationistic view. Opening the eleventh of the K. M. C. A at the Indian Students' hostel in London he indulged in philatheology cast about cooperation and his small chime chorus against "Illegal attitude of the Indian Independent Party and ended with the expression of ill-conceived rejoicing over the democratization of the Nationalist forces in the country. He discerned signs of growing "Common Sense" and his reaction to this development was the confidence he left that whatever the result of the forthcoming election, it would at least produce men who were prepared to treat and make the best of the present Constitution until the time came for modification and who would demonstrate to the world that India was in such a state of embryonic development as encouraged the hope that it would be possible at a recent too too far distant for Great Britain to undertake in letter and spirit her promise. Though he was good enough to prove that he had no effect what he demanded of the Indian people was nothing less than the abhorrent content of all expectation of immediate revision of the constitution or to recall the motives of the challenge of an East Satrap on Madras the position of an thoughtless self-governing one of their minds. Apart from exploiting communal directions for the similar purpose of bureaucratic reaction he means that the condition present to new change in the constitution was that "Indian of all parties should wholeheartedly cooperate in demonstrating their competence to work the existing constitution. The motives is as disheartening as it is inspiring. It is disheartening because it gives the fact that drastic has been given a trial for six years and it has been feared waiting by those who have heartily and to the best of their 294 Dehney Street Three nice large room, electric Light, but water and bath—Rent $18 Imagine Junior or Owner Phone Atwater 2893 --- capacity driven to work it. It is in capacity driven, the defence of the Nati- onal demand as served by all parties in the already disputed the capacity of India in its navy, self-providing institutions and as accommodated by the imposed agreement that India are still particularly in a state of cultural enlightenment and of Britain, the state of Britain to be the sole judge of the time and measure of the con- titutional progress of their country. The Italian confederation. The propriety of the Railway Conference at Sinai offer an interesting commentary on the manner in which a section of European railway officials regard the new order of things under which, the Railways are state-owned and Indianisation is to proceed, so at least the promise was given, in the last Assembly session by Sir Charles Innes, at a very rapid rate. Col. Wahon, the president of this year's conference while accepting the policy of Indianisation accused the Railway Board of issuing "Unintelligible orders" for they were based sometimes on "Political considerations". Sir Charles Innes in reply to this criticism of the Railway Board said that although cheap and inefficient transport might be the ideal of railways, Indian demand an Indian in the railway industry and the Railway Board required the latter to subsidise on Indian Industries. This is quite true, but why should Charles Innes imagine that Indians are against a cheap and efficient transport? Indianization, honestly and properly carried out, will be, if fact, result in hastening the realisation of this very ideal of cheap and efficient transport. Poors of Bombay Trampled Why was the Back Bay Reclamation scheme undertaken by the Government of Bombay under Sir George Lloyd, the then Governor of Bombay? Was it not as the ex-governor in alliterative enthusiasm in his efforts to promote "development in Bombay" to drive away death, dirt and disease from this city beautiful? But the official, who looked after the finances of this Presidency from April 1921 to last March had an other reason to give for the genesis of Lloyd's folly. Sir Henry Lawrence said in his evidence on London before the Means Committee that it was premature to describe the scheme as a failure. According to the London Times, he proceeded to remark "Block 8 at Culaka end was now practically completely reclaimed. The military offices, which were now scattered over the town, would be grouped together in one quarter it or near this block. To secure this end it was well worth while to expend capital. They must have been able to be guarded be trouble in Bombay City. When that happened those classes which were causing objectives to the scheme would be the first to take charge in the new area." So now we have it. The millions of sterling that Back Bay must absorb are to be milled out of the people of the Bombay for a high imperial purpose. Reclaimed Colaba at a curious cost of the revenues of Bombay is to be the shelter of refuge for those who hold India when troubles come. Sir Henry Lawrence amines them someday. All the talk about driving away death, dirt and disease is a more cumulative them to reconcile the Indian opinion to the strategy of providing a place for the vulnerable. Sir Lawrence cannot understand why non-official European opinions raised injections to the scheme "Truth" however does understand it.

Printed in Montpelier Journal About a year ago, attention was directed to the activities of the sunday trail in encouraging the raising of sugar beets by the farmers of the Great Northwest. The Minneapolis Journal recently picked the opening of a people mills in Minnesota as an indication that the production of beet sugar in that state will be more than doubled this year. Alan marks the recognition of the sugar beet as a steady and regular crop in the Red River Valley. The introduction of Mexicans as laborers in the beet fields of northern states like Minnesota and South Dakota is significant. It raises the question why this opportunity to engage an agriculture has not been seized by Mexicans migrating from the south and trained as tillers of the spiil. We are informed that land, for beet, cage can be secured on easy terms and which taro would receive as warm welcome as Mexico. It has al- ready been demonstrated that the NEGROs can stand the northern winters as well as the winters as their vital resistance is equal to any other race. Matthew Henson's trip to the North Pole with Admiral Perry is cited, as a living example of that fact. With the continuance of Negro migration from the south the advantage offered by the beet fields of the northwest should not be overlooked. Such agencies as the Urban League might do well to investigate the feasibility of distribution in this direction. Telephone Bradhuwst 0670-0671 WATT TERRY.

Professor Mims said in part: The solldarts of the South is no longer a source of pride, but of humiliation to many majors and most deserved men. Even in politics an increasing number of business men are no longer voting one way and praying another, but are following the dictates of their consciences and patriotism.

There is a South that finds expression in the crude and blatant utterances of men like Cole Blease and Vardaman and another that finds expression in the statesmanship of men like Carter Glass and Oscar Underwood. There is a South that practices and sustains lynching and another South that believes it is unjustifiable under any and all circumstances, and resolutely determined to put an end to it. Georgia that has furnished far too many instances of the first point of view recently has sent to the penitentiary for from six years to life the leaders of a mob.

Dr. Mims began his address by saving that it was time to have done with talk about Southern civilization, Southern manners and hospitality and even Southern ideals and traditions. He said the South had used the Civil War to explain to man things and that a new civil war was on today between the progressives or liberals and the conservatives or reactionaries.

NEW YORK ACADEMY OF BUSINESS TO RAISE $50,000 ENDOWMENT Pioneer Business School Looks Toward Future-Plans To Erect New Building Robert W. Justice founder and principal of the New York Academy of Business, 442 Lexington avenue, recently announced a program of expulsion for his school which would place high in the ranks of institutions in the world. New York does with but regard to ace already the New York Academy is generally considered their longest without among New York schools to be the exclu- sive training of young men and wo offer for secretarial and stenographic work Established sixteen years ago this school has done much to it Negroes for Civil Service in New York and New Jersey and to furnish stenogra- phers and secretaries for business people and educational institutions in the South. As a part of its curricu- lum there is maintained at the school a free employment bureau where jobs are secured for stenographers, book- keepers and other clerical workers. Special attention is paid to Municipal and State civil service positions and coaching work is done by Mr. Justice to enable his students to pass examinations for desirable Civil Servi- ce positions Mr. Justice states that the proceeds from the $5,000 drive which his school is conducting will be used to erect a larger building to accommodate the increased attendance in the past few years and establish an employment fund so that more teachers and equipment may be secured. The principal is a native of North Carolina and a graduate of Johnson & North University (formerly Biddle). During the early days he struggled at a big financial loss to himself to establish this work. In recent years he has been offered positions as head of the Business Department of several big educational institutions and with other business concerns. He has steadfastly refused to give up his dream of one day heading a big commercial school in New York and works day and night toward that end. Never the less he somehow managed to tend to study new and improved methods of doing general work and is now taking special work in the Business Department in New York University. He believes that at Harlem will benefit directly or indirectly by the improved economy and education of graduates from the New York Academy and asking that the general public make a contribution toward this work. He is open both in the day and evening and public in the meantime. YOU READ the Other Fellow's Ad You are reading this one.

"On the morning of that day, mostly but clearly the brilliant men of the troops under Gen Knox camped at the Bowers Lanes, and halted at the present juncture of Third avenue and the Bowers where he remained until about 1 o'clock in the afternoon when the British left their posts in the vicinity and marched to Whitehall.

Handy started the "blues" to singing down in Memphis, Tennessee and writing its way to the furtermost corners of the land when he concocted his "Mister Crump," a composition dedicated to Ed Crump, a power in Memphis politically, which eventually became "The Memphis Blues." Becker wrote as follows: In pre-Whiteman days before Carnegie Hall was filled with dowager subscribers who took their jazz with evening clothes and lorgnettes and stiff decorum, before the provinces had become too susceptible to sparkling back-drops and the patter of specialty artists who write the clever things supposed to be spoken impromptu or extempore in the conduct or in those ancient days, the blues" germ cell of jazz was beogot and born on Beale street in the State of Tennessee city of Memphis. Its father was W. Handy, since famous as the great originator or, more properly as the adapter of blues. Its mother was some primitive conjure soul as old as the race as mysterious and illusor as Lilith. In her was something crude and wild, something moaning like the spirit of the dead and melancholy on its ghost-like departure for unknown habitations. So it happened that this curious progeny came to life and to notice not to the tune of "Steal Away" or "Go Down Moses" or "All God's Chillun," but to the drawl of Mister Crump. Considering its home, there is little cause for wonder at the product Beale Street runs like a black ribbon patterned with gross spots of the color of a little almost all over its surface. It is the laver of the blacks and browns and high painters the great congregating place for amusement indolence seeing all wrong workshopping. It is a water of aborganal Africa and modern America a monolith of pastus and thick lips with races and mask worn shoes stained in a reflection hard gravered and glittered green. All this had existed a year but had remained a world selfless Mister Crump started something Handy dedicated what was at that time his latest to hold inn political glorious and the machine idol of a mixed community "Mister Crump" beado on a dill-holethatch and en route to the name was changed up "The Memphis Blues." Handy's fame began to blossom. With a colored hand that he had assembled he started on a career of music making. He was hired on place for dances all over town, hardlyanding on top a local roof patio where every night, the straits of world elevitimate moaning music entrained hundreds of dancers doing the show.

She sent the members constantly on the alert always sponsoring new and progressive movements in the Temple.

INFLUENCE EXERTED BY N. Y. AGE ON THINGS THEATRICAL IN 18 YEARS Theatrical Department Established By Fred R. Moore in The Paley Days of Williams and Walker, Gold and Johnson, Erapt Hogan, Black Patt and Smart Set Co. Former Managing and Dutiful Editor of The New York Age, now a member of The New York World wall. When Fred R. Moore became publisher and editor of The New York Age colored musical shows were enjoying an unprecedented vogue. The five largest attractions were Williams & Walter, Cole & Johnson, Ernest Hogan, Black Party, and the Smart Set Company featuring S. H. Dudley. Colored acts were headlining wavieville bills. At no time in the history of the theatre have conditions been more propitious for the Negro performer. Perhaps the first important clause® made in departing from the National Weekly's former policies was the establishment of a theatrical department. It was a big success from the start and won the support and commendation of both the colored performers and the colored theatregoers. Up to that time when a performer was desirous of getting his picture in a paper it usually cost him something—at least for the making of the cut. But The Age inaugurated a different policy. Each week published on its dramatic page the pictures of successful men and women of the theatrical profession without charging one penny. Not infrequently half a dozen pictures appeared on one issue. Interesting Information Given The leading article by the dramatic editor was written, to hold the attention of the theatrical folk and those interested in what was going on behind the footlights. Not only were the better published weekly from correspondents with the five largest shows, but the dolls of the smaller companies were similarly recorded. The routes of shows and whereabouts of vaudevillians helped to make the page eagerly sought. The Age's policy of giving free write-ups and "running edits gratis has been consistently adhered to up to this day. The management has always frowned on any disposition of its representatives to accept money for making complimentary mention of a performer. "If you are doing something worth while. The New York Age will gladly make mention of it free of charge, and if it is thought you are not entitled to a personal boost you can't get it in the columns of the paper for any amount," colored members of the theatrical profession have been told for years. session have been told for years. When The Age started giving the readers a theatrical page the Indianapolis Freeman was the only other Negro weekly successfully conducting on a large scale, stitch a department. The fact that The Age occupied a strategic geographical position being in the very midst of where the latest important theatrical news broke, was one of the contributory causes for it springing into immediate popularity Another consideration not to be overlooked was that some of the publication's editors were personally associated with those who were making theatrical history for the race. For this reason the opening of a new show, the abrupt closing of a show, the organization of a new company and other interesting pieces of information were first chronised in the columns of The New York Age Directly Associated with Forward Movements It was in the old office of The New York Age at 7 and 8 Chatham Square that the idea to organize the Colored Vaudeville Benevolent Association was born and the preliminary meet it was informally held. It was The New York Age which first told about the information of the Frogs, organized by colored stars and other prominently, identified with the show business. In fact, representatives of The Age were more or less directly associated with ever constructive more menial having for its object the elevation of the Negro in the theatricaldom When hired musical shows were in their bedday The New York Age for several seasons published Christian number which to date have not been duplicated by any rare paper to general excellence both as to content and aographical appearance. The were of the present day picture paper size, printed on book paper with covers done in different colors. Group picture, bow and condesville acts and individual pictures perform ```markdown ``` For further Democratic Election of the A- knowledge of the N. Y. State are added to the attractiveness of makeup. Articles were contributed by well-known performers who智 intelligently discusped various phases of theatricals. Just as the editors of The New York Times described the role of Galileo for giving the New square deal, so has the theatrical department unsurveyed stood for de- cency on the stage. It has in no un- certain manner contended that type of manager found throughout the country who has no concern for the motifs of the New York theater performer to serve in this far nancial gain, and it has warmly welcomed and supported it to raise the standards of who could theatrical profession to a higher and more dignified plane. The New York Age has not been prone to confuse the triumphs scored b actions in recent years with b beginning of the colored mu show. Its editors are familiar with the theatrical history and well know the difference between an innovation and a sensualisation. Great Stuff! Made! In Negio The Indianapolis Freeman no longer exists. But along with The New York Age a dozen race celebrations are to-day conducting bright newsy and well-edited theatrical departments. This is truly indicative of the great strides the Negro weekly has made within the last teen years. Despite the growing influence of the Negro press and the disposition of its writers to promote this advantage of the Negro on the stage in every possible way, colored men's charge of the theatrical departments butterly complain that no many instances they are not accorded the recognition and respect rightfully due them. As a case in point, they charge that at openings of colored shows on Broadway or productions in which Negroes are featured it is seldom the courtesy of the press is extended them. Sometimes they finally receive a modicum of consideration after going through a lot of red type, and on other occasions they don't. They relate if no review or reference is published by them they are criticised and accused of indifference by some of the performers directly concerned as well as some readers. During the days of Williams & Walker Cole & Johnson and Ernest Hogan these colored states who apreciated the value of a Negro constituency personally saw to it that the Negro press was accorded the same courtesies as the white press. Aside from a matter of rare pride, they convinced their managers how important it was to have the moral and financial support of colored theatricalists, such as a business proposition. In this attitude is simulated by our contemporary stars of the twilights, colored dramatic writers will no longer complain of being left out of the conation. The New York Age has always contended that respect must first come from within the race. Two of the other records were the relay races by teams from the Hardwick Doughams Junior High. The 100 pound relay team set a new record for the quarter mile of 50 and 2-5 minutes, while the 800 yard relay team competing in the unlimited class completed the course in one min. the 45 seconds, a second faster than the average and team run before. FOR THE POOR WHO ARE POOT AFFLIGED The members of relay teams from Fryellfield High Glass Junior High were George West, Howard Carrick, George Lambden, and Marion Miller for the 120 pound class; and William Merrill, Pond, William Harvey and William Austin for the 880 yard race. They were coached by George R. Ralston. The performance of John Thomas, another colored boy, featured the games. He won the running high jump in the unlimited class with the close-to-the-record jump of 5 feet 3 inches competing in heavy air sports. Thomas was from P. S. R. Brooklyn. 137th Street Y. W. C. A.

It may have been that the C. L. A. regulations were too limiting and too restrictive upon Howard but it will just concede that the role of reconciling differences was impossible.

THE NEW YORK REGION Florence Mills, Now Starring In London, Writes of Splendid Work Being Done By Louis Drysdale, Voice, Singing Teacher An interesting letter comes to THE AGE editor from Miss Florence Mills, the dainty little comedienne and dancer, now in London with her "Blackbirds" company for an indefinite run after major triumphs in Paris, in which she tells of work she is doing looking to the further development of her talents. Not satisfied with the position of stardom which is already accorded her, the charming cantatrice is studying hard to do Mia FLORENCE MILLI LOUIE DRYDDALE, Tenor velop her singing abilities to a greater degree that it may be possible for her to do even better and more appealing work than she has been doing. In the letter referred to, she tells of taking several lessons each week with Louis Dryadale, a distinguished teacher of singing and voice production in the true Italian style (bel canto), himself a tenor who maintains luxurious and well-appointed studios in Arotrian-Zteinweg, Hall, Wigmore Hall, and at 11 Westbourne Road, Forest Hull, London. And the most interesting fact in this connection is that Mr. Drysdale is a Negro, a native of Jamaica, British West Indies. According to his printed announcements, Mr. Drysdale has studied himself with some of the most important and prominent European teachers, including Signor Gustave Garcia, Signor Giovanni Glerici (Hon. R. A. M Florence), Signor Lenghi-Cellini, all Italian maestros, and Senor Joaquin Bayo, a Spanish master. London, England November 22, 1926 "Edition of the New York Age: 'I gives me very great pleasure in sending you this letter and the news to follow. 'Here in London is one of our race Mr Louis Drysdale, a prominent teacher of music production and singing. Some of London's best singers have studied and are studying with him and since my arrival I've been taking several lessons every week with him and feel happy to say I am very very satisfied. Though unknown on our side, which I consider a very great pity, he is well known here and is very successful." "I am sure this will be interesting news to you all, and the mail will bring you some of his papers, etc., and I hope you will take, if possible, the opportunity of making this master known to our race, especially those who come to Europe to study. They will do well to go on to Mr. Drysdale as he is genuine and very sincere in his work, which is. I am sure, a great help. He is very, very good, and I would like some day to see him in the United States of America. "I hope you are all fine and dandy. We are doing well, and everybody pleased. With very best wishes, I am, truly yours. FLORENCE MILLS In another mail came a copy of a London journal. "The Country House and Estate, a High-Class Review of Modern Progress for All Interested in Country Life," in which appears a full page illustrations of Mr. Drysdale's studio and his own photo. The article, "In the World of Music" written by Ben Marcato, accompanying the pictures, is as follows. "Music has entered into every portion of life during the last few years, and not the greatest complainant about the general changes which have taken place in our social life can say that this increase in good music is anything but the finest possible social advantage. Its influence is softening and educative and in general it is certain that no function is half so successful as that at which there is good music to be heard. "This is perhaps, more nonceable in connection with singing than any other phase of music, and yet there are comparatively few really well trained voices today. This is possible mainly due to lack of proper training, for training in the case of singing a more vital essential than in any other branch of the art. The latter, the least learning to sing is the Italian Method ("Rel Cantos"), but here again it must be taken in the selection of a teacher.

Burleigh, eminent musician, composer and singer, in commenting on The Age's fortieth anniversary, calls attention to the fact that this paper was the first race journal to devote a page solely to critical reviews of musical and dramatic events. Dr. Burleigh writes as follows: "Oh dear I am very much misaken I think The New York Age was the first Negro newspaper to carry a page devoted solely to music and the theatre and the first to employ a special competent music critic who was and who still is a member of the Editorial staff Before this regular critic was engaged in the custom merely to print what had placed and if any comment was made it was usually some reference to the social patronage. When we recall the musical offerings no more remote than Walter Craig's Pre Lenten musicales or Theodore Drury's colorful performances of grand operas we find that there was no reviewer to chronicle these pioneer musical events with a suitable report. Realizing this deficiency in its reportal scope, The Age with progressive vision set aside a page for the purposes of musical and theatrical comment In all the years of its service to the people, it has never failed to give breed to the events of a distinctly artistic and cultural nature to give due mention of all important affairs, to praise it if it was possible and to criticize when it seemed proper. But whether of praise or censure, its underlying purpose has been to give an unbiased report of current musical and theatrical happenings and in this respect it seems to me. The Age has achieved an eminent and enviable position in the educational field of high newspaper attainment. HARRY T. BURLEIGH Mrs. Florence Talbert Succeeding In Italy In a letter to Dr. Harry T. Burleigh, Mme Florence Talbert Talbert writes that during the past year, under tutorage from a Chilean teacher, her voice has been developed into a real dramatic soprano and that she has been prepared specially to sing "Aida" and "L Afroana" Through her teacher, arrangements are under way for her early presentation with an Italian opera company. She has been granted auditions by several impressives who have been favorably impressed with her voice and have made tentative propositions to her. After a year and a half in Rome, Dame Talbert wrote that she feels so much at home with an Italian tailor that she "cries and on Thank give."

Everyone knows that Negroes have given to America, much of her most typical and beautiful music through the Spirituals and plantation songs that have grown out of life of the race. But what musical art owes to the modern Negro composer is not generally recognised. There is today a wealth of music, both sacred and secular, which has come from the pens of Negro composers. Some of it is based upon the Spirituals, and some of it is not racial in character. Such Negro composers as Harry T. Burleigh, S. Coleridge-Taylor, Will Marion Cook, R. Nathaniel Derr, Carl R Dilton, J Rosamond Johnson and Clarence Cameron White have during the past fifteen years written songs of rare melody and originality, songs that will live Increased Appreciation Of late there has been a steady increase in the appreciation of musical compositions by Negroes both among white and colored groups. Church cholf? have given over ser- needs no额外 compositions by Negro composers. Many women's clubs have devoted time of their sessions to the performance of religious compositions by Negro composers, especially the simpler choral works. Colored groups operating locally under Community Service have prepared special programs of Negro music, combining the spirituals with songs, modern Negro composers. A Community Service The Bureau of Community Music of Community Service, 315 Fourth avenue, New York City, is endeavoring to foster this growing interest and to acquaint more music groups, both white and colored, with the possibilities offered by compositions by modern Negro composers. A bulletin "Music Composed by Negroes," has been prepared by this Bureau and is sent out at a nominal charge. It lists the compositions of seven of the foremost Negro composers, telling for what combinations of voices and instruments they are arranged and where they may be secured. Exam- M.

No one will hear the Negro Spirituals, automatically performed, without feeling the deep spiritual significance of these songs which reveal a tellingly the religious nature and experience of the people from whom they have sprung. As Henry T. Boseleigh, one of the leading Negro musicians and editors of the Spirituals has pointed out, "More than ever today the Spirituals ought to be being because they supply a note of spiritual exaltation that we need in the priest of the most war material." The authentic interpretation of the Spirituals, therefore, is one in which this motif of exaltation is preserved. Collections of Negro Spirituals Groups desiring to take up the study and the performance of Negro Spirituals may best utilize existing collections, of this type of music. For instance, an inexpensive paper bound volume of Spirituals is "National Jubilee Melodies," published by the National Baptist Publishing Board 223 Second Avenue, Nashville, Term. The Spirituals are also found in the following books "Negro Folk Song for Mixed Voices." Volumes 1 and 2, published by Work, Brothers, Nashville, Tenn., "New Jubilee Songs as sung by Fik Jubilee singers of Fisk University," collected and arranged by Frederick J.

First Emmanuel Church At the 11 o'clock service Sunday, Pastor Bolden preached from the text: "In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness and the darkness comprehendeth it not" St John 1 4, 5 "Theme: "The divine light of life in the world of humanity Pastor Bolden said Those who are interested in the development of the consciousness of the Emmanuel Idea, and the growth of their soul and mind are urged to study the Bible reverently. And they will find that the Holy Spirit will make known to them the reality of our Father God, the eternal benevolent spirit. A consciousness of the truth and power of his presence, quicken and thrills, the life of the whole person. A light breaks forth in the mind and both radiant and dynamic energy is released in the home, community, the country and the world. Jesus, our Lord the Emmanuel brought this light of life into the darkened, unharmonious, sinful, world. And he deposited it as a gift in the mind of an elected group in the world of humanity. And from them hath other human trophies been lighted by the power of the Holy Spirit, until the light which shown in darkness in the person of our Lord Jesus Christ the Emmanuel, while He was in the flesh in Jerusalem and on the shores of Galilee nearly 2,000 years ago has spread from a dawn of the morning of a rising sun to almost high noon of the glorious day of the millennial age, with our Lord Jesus Christ the Emmanuel, the light of life, the innocent God man, the embodiment of love, justice and goodwill the author and giver of eternal life to all who believe in him as Lord in supreme command. The darkness in human consciousness reflected there by the horde of evil cannot comprehend this light but this light shining annhalates darkness. May He the Holy spirit make you know the truth of this power in your own experience so that sin shall be blotted out, evil overcome, and holy impulses good arts and inspiring words may go forth, from your life, into the home in your occupation in your social contacts in the community and nation. It is a sad commentary upon our educational system of modernness that the professors and students large groups of them deny the depth of our Lord Jesus the Humanman and discount the Bible as the word of God and declare their non belief in the existence of the universal spirit our Father God. If this growth of mind continues and spreads in this nation and throughout the nations in the world. We are approaching a dark period for the people of the world when the Church of the Service. 177.

TUSKEGEE NORMAL AND INDUSTRIAL INSTITUTE Founded by BOOKER T. WASHINGTON Offers excellent Opportunities to Young Men's Women to Secure an Excellent Literary and Normal Course and a Course in Mechanical Industries. Women's Industries or Agriculture Grace gave us that very greater that the world had ever known in the past. That God is in the day when the Babes of Bethlehem were born, when wise and holy women were born, the slaves of their great light and followed the call in the East, so others are those to-day who see the Son of Reality and salute in its efflessness. Great educational systems human learning and culture was glorified in just before, and at the time of the Emmanuel's humble birth, Egypt, Persia, Greece, and Rome had a civilization and culture that in some respects is immanquenced even in our own great progressive modern age and it did not appease to the law given, the philosopher, the teacher, the priest, the affidavit, the agriculturist, and the scientist, of that time that their copiousness was darkened, and with the exception of a few illuminated who minds they lived in a dark world bar it was so. And so it is to make when we stress the mind, interest and claims of unilluminated groups and nations. Praise be to the poor Father God for the light of life that shines in the darkness of today and the darkest comprehending it not. Bridge Street Church THE ... Saleen M. E.

Misa, Evelyn Taylor, who attended the Old Westbury 18553512 attended the Park Avenue Baptist Church, told of the work of the conference Misa Taylor expelled as significant the frank manner in which the delegates discussed the subjects of race relations plaging themselves to become agitators of a greater play.

The young men also presented Dr. Cullen with a handsome pillow, a souvenir of the convention city. The subject "Our Part in the Church" evoked some very briefly discussions as the Epiphany League.

The society has lived through these three years, paying all claims. Under this society, several hundred of the church membership have joined and fiducially they are as strong as any under operating under charter.

George Hippman Stark, pastor, preached, taking as the subject of his discourse Paul's answer as to why he followed Christ so earnestly and availously and sought to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ over the known world at that time. The answer of Paul was what else could he do than what he was doing in view of the fact that he had persecuted Christ and helped stone some of His martyrs. The pastor brought out in his talk that the best defense of Christianity is not the argument but is in the evidence of Christ in our hearts and what Christ has done for us in our lives. This was illustrated in the life of Paul. Christianity is an information. Christ is inanimate in human hearts this is the message of the Advent season. The Bible School meet in session in the various departments at 1:15 p.m. On Thursday and Friday evening the annual Christmas Carnival of the school will be held.

Special preparation is being made for the Christmas celebration. Mrs. Robert Wheeler, wife of the founder of the Nassau Church, placed away Saturday and was joined Monday, pastor officiating. Dr. Jasian Caldwell Strong Candidate for A. M. E. C. Presbyter Nashville, Penn. Three conferences of Tennessee unanimously endorsed Dr. Julian C. Caldwell for the bishop- ric to be elected by the 1928 General Conference. Dr. Caldwell has been an earnest and jealous worker in his church for many years. He was for twelve years secretary of the Allen C. R. League, and it was during his tenure of office that the League was made a potential factor in the life and work of the church. In 1922 he was an aspirant for the bishopric, receiving one hundred and twenty-five votes. Unlike other general officials who aspire and then seek their same position when not elected, he did not do so, though he could have been re-elected, but went back in the trenches and served as presiding elder for three years and one year in the pastorate. The last General Conference created the office of editor of Sunday School Literature, and he was unap- mously chosen by the bishops for that position, which position he is now holding. He is intensely interested in every shade of the church, but especially the young people, and conducts issu- tures throughout the church for both the Sunday school and the League. He is a close friend of the Bisho- and is called upon from time to time to lecture on "How to Study the Athlete." He is also concerned about the superannuated ministers, being most interested in the Home for the permanent Ministers at Nashville Tenn. When he was secretary of the League, the League gave the first superannuated dollar to the church for the support of the superannuated ministers. Dr. Caldwell is not a novice, but well experienced and ripe for the office. He is a man of parts, true for lo- and faithful. He loves men and with him it is not a mere sentiment but strong, overmastating passion. He lov- gows the church, having travelled from one end of it to the other. The 14th Episcopal District, led on by that prince of even, Bishop R. Ransom, will go to the General Con- ference at Indianaapolis in 1928 solidly for Italian C. Caldwell for bishop.
