Froe of West Virginia, had depeatedly to sign vouchers for payment of the Century Building in which the Go houses the office and plant of the Recorder Washington, D. C.—The Capital, accustomed to the "bee-fing" of non-residents about segregation in Government departments while the segregated keep mum (for "economic" reasons), was shocked when it became publicly known that the Recorder of Deeds, Arthur G. Froe of West Virginia, had declined repeatedly to sign vouchers for payment of rent of the Century Building in which the Government houses the office and plant of the Recorder of Deeds, District of Columbia. The Century Building is a seven-story office structure, whose interior state, aptly connotes its name. This condition seems to be and to have been a cause of constant complaint from Mr. Froe to the landlords, who promised, relief without making the least attempt to keep the promises; so the Recorder of Deeds, who is a lawyer—both good and successful—resorts to the Lawful expedient of the exasperated tenant and refuses to pay off. Recorder Froe, backed by an organized and formidable constituency, is noted for his independence of action within his providence and if it is, is said that he is the first incumbent of the post to familiar On April 23 the following state- ment was issued: the state of the situation, was issued: The Recordar's Statement Anthur G. Froe, Recorder of Deeds of the District of Columbia, stated that he could not legally approve, payment of public money for services which have not been rendered in connection with the lease of the Century Building for his office, on the ground that, such approval would establish a precedent leading to, fraud and corruption. The lease for the building was made by the Commissioners, and called for reasonable light, heat, elevator service and repairs. The Commissioners, during the past week, called on Recorder Froe to decide whether or not he would accept a compromise offered by the owner of the Century Building, 412 Fifth street, so that the Pernuary and March rent may be paid and a lawsuit for, the rent against the District may be dropped. The Recorder replied, declining to authorize issuance of vouchers for payment of rent, holding that the owner had failed to give satisfactory elevator, light and neat spaces, and has not made reasonable repairs as called for in the lease. The Recorder held, further, that as the lease was signed by the District Commissioners, the duties and responsibility devolved on them to see that the owners lived up to its terms, and that the payment of rent was under control of the commissioners. Building Is Unavailable. The District is paying a yearly rental of $14,000 for the Century Building as an office for the Recorder of Decds, less $400 allowance by the owner for janitor service. An examination of the building by government officials recently showed that it was in need of repairs, and is not suitable for the work being done by the Recorder's force. Mr. Froe said that several weeks ago he requested the Commissioners to arrange with the owner of the brinkling for its use after 4 hours, so that he might employ an evening force, to catch up with the work of the office.

These and other facts, Mr. Froes- said, should make apparent to the people of this city (and he may have added, -the people of the country) the urgent need for a modern 'fire-proof' government- owned building for the Recorder's office. Recorder Froe, backed by an organized and formidable constitu- tion, is noted for his independ- ence of action within his province, and it is said that he is the thir- incumbent of power, familiar with every detail of his office. More than 80 persons are employed there, including two Deputy Recorders—one white, the other non-white, the latter, being the Hon. Jeff Coage of Delaware, who was a member of the Virgin Islands Commission.

Negro Leaves $8,000 To Storer College Harpers Ferry, West Va.—The largest gift made to Storer College by a colored person has just come to the institution. It will amount to almost $8,000, and is made payable by a request from the late Frank Gibson of Malden, Mass., a former student of the College. A hard working frugal man, Gibson, denide himself that his small savings might grow and that he might thus pay a debt of gratitude to the school, which started him on the upward path. Announcement Rumors circulated regarding the death of Mrs. Martha E. Howell wife of the late H. Adolph Howell, are unfounded. Mrs. Howell, though suffering men, were from the loss of her beloved husband, has borne up very well physically. These rumors may have been circulated evidently for the purpose of misleading the public, and thereby injuring the patronage of the H. Adolph Howell Church. This is which is operating the same as ever, as it is a Corporation and will be perpetual. Mrs. Martha E. Howell is the president of the Corporation, and managing its affairs. She invites the public to continue its patronage and invests excellent service and courteous treatment at all times. H. ADOLPH HOWELL FUNERAL CHURCH, Ink. (Signed). MARTHA E. HOWELL Secretary Frederick Rubien Says A. A. U. Is For Equal Opportunity For All—Fear of Race Riots By Southerners Unfounded The action of Mayor Arthur J. O. O. Keefe and the Chamber of Commerce of New Orleans in withdrawing an invitation for the National Amateur Athletic Union to hold their annual track and field championships in that city, lias been characterized by Frederick A. Rubien, secretary-treasurer of the A. A. U., as narrow and bigoted. The action of the New Orleans officials came as a result of an ultimatum from the heads of the Union, "That if New Orleans wanted the meeting the city must permit a competition, and that the Amateur, Athletic Union, could disfranchise any one on account of race and creed." in an interview with a representative of the New York, NY, Mfr. Rubien said, "He had hoped that such a standout haq hoped that such a standout haq be taken in America, Negroes in the past have competed (or the United States in Olympic games abroad and have won high honors there. What a victory for Negroes in the right to compete In, the National games of their own country. Fears Are Unfounded. "The possibility of racial troubles has been over-estimated," said Secretary Rubin. "The games wore held in New Orleans fifteen years ago: in Jamestown, Va., in 1903, and Baltimore in 1914, and age was an indication of trouble resulting." The "games are especially important this year in view of the Olympic Games in 1928, and the ability of such men as Cecil Cooke of Syracuse University, quartet miler, and probably the fastest in the country; the St. Bone Major, College; the St. Bone College; DeHart Hubbard, world's champion broad jumper, and several good distance men who are likely to make the team. Should Encourage All. "We feel that the Athletic Union should encourage and aid all athletes, regardless of race, and give them equal opportunity to represent America. Mr. Rubien concluded, "We need to have a schedule to have been held July 1 to 4 and the question of race came up when several prominent colored athletes wrote Mr. Rubien inquiring whether they would be permitted to compete. We need to have a schedule to have New Orleans officials and they strenuously object to Negroes-competing. The A. A. U. officials insisted that Negroes be given equal opportunity the invitation was withdrawn, and the A. A. U. will meet this week to select another city for the uuest 58 YEARS AT DOOR OF SECRETARY OF STATE IN CAPITAL Edw. A. Savoy, 72 Years Old, Has Held Post Since 1869 Washington, D. C.-Edward Augustine Savoy, 72 years old, messenger to the Secretary of State known to generations of Indians and Native Americans, the Secretary's door where he has been stationed for fifty-eight years, has been retained by Secretary Kellogg for two more years, preventing his forced retirement from the service for age. He was appointed by Secretary Hamilton Fish in 1869 and has forced retirement from the service accompanied the Peace Commissioners as messenger, in 1888 during the deliberations which ended the war with Spain.

By Bainbridge Colby, and $1,500 by Secretary Hubbard. Luskegee Institute, Ala.—The first annual Founder's Night, commemorating the life-work of Booker T. Washington, who founded the National Negro Business League 22 years ago, met with enthusiastic approval and was observed throughout the nation under the auspices of local business leagues according to reports received here by Albon L. Holsey, secretary of the league. Founder's Night was proposed by the executive officers of the League, with the hope of calling attention to the contribution which Dr. Washington made to the economic life of the Negro. In many cities the night of April 5, Dr. Washington's birthday, was selected for this observance. But other dates were also used, some cities observing the occasion as recently as this week. The programs in the main consisted of addresses on the history of the league, readings from the first and second meetings by Dr. Washington before the annual meetings of the league in Boston, 1900 and 1915, and addresses on a new program for the league. A Negro Trade Work In a number of cities the observance of Founder's night was made the occasion for the opening of Negro Trade Week during which period special effort was made to arouse the Negro's interest in his own business. The Negro's interest in producing him to trade, wherever possible, with members of his own race, Negro Trade Week stresses particularly the economic value which the entire race receives when members of the race trade with one another. "I am happy," writes Emmet J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howe's mercy and for the mercy of the league "to have the jittery of joining with hundreds of others who worked in association with Dr. Washington to make the Business League a virile force in the life of the colored people of America. Since his passing, the good work for which the League stood and slanders, has gone and and am sure has restored the Negro economic life in every section of our country, hope the league may continue its good work." Napier Approves Plan. J. C. Napier, Nashville lawyer who served as president of the league in the interim between Dr. Washington's administration and that of Dr. Moton; writes to say that the "most heartily approves the plan suggested in connection with having the National Negro Business League observe Founder's night. Among the many great and useful things projected by Mr. Washington for the advancement, interest and welfare of the colored people," I think that none is of more far-reaching importance than National Negro Business League." Plan will be arranged for a more extensive observance next year, Mr. Holgate observes me. FLOODS SWEEPING OVER 9,000 SQUARE MILES OF MISSISSIPPI, ARKANSAS, LOUISIANA AND DELTA LANDS CARRY HUNDREDS OF NEGROES TO DEATH; DESTROY WORLDLY POSSESSIONS Memphis, Tenn.—While the mighty Mississippi River, fed by flood waters from the Arkansas, Red, Quachita and. White Rivers, continues its relentless sweep of devastation and death all the way from Memphis to the Gulf of Mexico, thousands of Negroes are facing the loss of all their worldly possessions with cheerful optimism. That even the Civil Service Commission is powerless to prevent discrimination by heads, of state and municipal institutions, seems to be disclosed in a letter from the president of the State Department of Civil Service, Mrs. Charles Bennett Smith, of Buffalo, to James H. Hubert, secretary of the New York Urban League, who had made inquiry as to why Mrs. Natalie Stewart of 814 East 223rd street, who had qualified, had been unable to secure appointment as a Social Service worker in state hospitals, Mrs. Stewart, it appears, has qualified repeatedly, and has been certified to positions at various state hospitals, including Middletown, Poughkeepsie, Kings Parish, and New York City, when she reported, she was told that her services were not required. Cites Court Division This situation was brought to the attention of Mrs. Smith, and she replied, expressing her great regret that the State Civil Service Commission has no power to control such a situation as obtains in the case of Mrs. Stewart. She referred to a decision by the Court of Appeals which gives to the appointing officers of institutions the right without question to exercise their own discretion in hiring appointees, the only stipulation being that the appointment must go to ONE of THREE names submitted by the Civil Service Commission. Writes Mrs. Smith Civil Service Commission were permitted to compel the appointing officer, to take the person whose name is next within certification, the 'appointment' would be made by the Civil Service Commission and not by the head of the department, bureau or agency within the county. In the case of a single vacancy this department is required to certify the names of the three persons highest on the eligible list. The appointing officer has the right to choose anyone of the three. Mrs. Smith expresses the fear of an amendment to the Civil Service if through, would be held unconstitutional in view of the Court of Appeals decision. Margaret Washington, Dead Educator's Niece, Is Married At Tuskegee Margaret Washington, Dead Educator's Niece, Is Married At Tuskegee Tuskegee Institute, Ala. (A.N.P.)—A beautiful and impressive wedding ceremony was solemnized Saturday evening, April 9, in the chapel of Tuskegee-Institute, when Miss Margaret James Washington, youngest daughter of Mrs. Suzie Washington and the late John H. Washington, brother of the founder of Tuskegee Institute, became the bride of John Wesley Barrington of the treasurer's office staff. Mr. and Mrs. Barrington left by motorcars on a honeycomb that will take them to Ravanaah, Cebu, and Denam More than 9,000 square miles of rich delta lands in the Mississippi and Arkansas regions are covered with the turbid yellow waters, and the pressure upon dykes and levees has been beyond and engineering probability. As a result of the breaking of a levee in the Arkansas River above Pine Bluffs, both Desha and Chicot Counties in Arkansas and several parishes in Louisiana are jeopardized. Mississippi levees at Fair's Landing, Ark., thirty miles south of Helena, and at Brunswick Circle, ten miles south of Vicksburg, were showing signs of collapse and army engineers sent crews with sand and rock to try reinforcing these points to withstand the flood pressure. 200,000 Sufferers.

Negroes in the majority, however, Tollinger on Saturday succeeded in finding 900 of the whites, women and children, largely in the majority. Of the whites, women and children, largely in the majority.

It was noted by the relief workers that despite the loss of all their possessions and their imminent escape from death' by drowning' the Negroes came off the boat with a laugh or, with a brave attempt at laughing. Faces were strained with suffering, and there were trembling mouths and anxious eyes. But few tears were shed, and such, as dill flow, were tears of relief. The children stared wide-eyed in amazement at the thronging thousands who lined the bank as the refugees debarked. At Greenville, 6,000 colored families were encamped on the levee, and officers on board the Tollinger said the people did not know what to do. To leave would mean abandoning all they possessed to the flood, and were in a state of uncertainty that kept many of them from coming and on the boat. Many of them had been on the leave for several days and nights, and were so weak from lunger and exposure they could hardly walk. A report from Greenville was to the effect that more than 100 Negroes had been drowned in the vicinity of St. Landing, eighteen miles north. Immediate Red Cross Relief Given.

Baker, the organization's director for such emergencies, as dictator of all relief work. One of his first moves was the commander of 40,000 motor boats in the Mississippi area to be used in rescue and relief work. Secretary Rogers of the National headquarters of the American Red Cross at 598 Madison avenue, in talking with an Age representative, said that Greater New York was being asked to raise $700,000 for flood relief, of which $100,000 is allotted to Brooklyn. Mr. Rogers emphasized the policy of his organization in extending relief to sufferers in the flooded areas. Reports received at the New York office make no distinction, he says, put in one classification all who need or are given help. Colored citizens of New York City are urged to respond to the Red Cross call, and to make as liberal contributions as possible. John L. Webb Gives $500 For Band Stand At Florida College John L. Webb Gives $500 For Band Stand At Florida College Tallahassee, Fla.—John L. Weib, of Hol Springs, Ark., supreme custodian of the Woodmen of Union, has donated the sum of $500 to the Florida A. & M. College for educational purposes. President R. J. E. Lee announced that this money will be used to erect a band stand to be named after the donor. Mr. Weib recently gave $5,000 to Tuskegee Institute, his alma mater. The Ambassador's Social Club, Edward H. Sutton, president, Henry J. Smith, treasurer, has made a contribution of $325 to the New York, Urban League. The club is composed of postal clerks and its decision to devote a part of its energy and proceeds to community work has aroused considerable interest. Expressions of appreciation have been received from the executive secretary, H. Hubbert, and Arthur C. Holden, chairman of the executive board.

C.—Jones and Johnson surcharged the air with spirit: it overwhelmed New and Wilbur. Sargent failed to appear as advertized was the hour of Hon. Perry W.

Church here on April 16 in the vital interests of Fisk University of Nashville—and of everywhere Negroes Jones is not the DuBois anathmatized, Thomas Jesse, but the evidently Quakerized Dr. Thomas Elia, late of Ohio State University, who takes up where God's Sleeman, Cravath, Jeff off, determined to bring Fisk back into the faith of its fathers and the efficacy and influence of their times. Johnson is the impressible Dr. Mordeal W. head of Howard University. New is the same old Harry S. President Coolidge's Postmaster General, Wilbur is Hon. Curtis D. his secretary of the 'Navier,' and Sargent, the Attorney General, Perry Howard's chief. .. Perry Howard on Deck. Perry Howard. Mississippi Republican National Committeeman and special assistant Attorney General, was master of ceremony; not because he is a Fiskitek, but for the reason that he rapidly became official presiding officer at Capital City affairs. Mr. Howard was in form-and-fashion. If he presented a speaker whom he limited to five minutes, the effervescent and conitive Howard took twelve minutes for the presentation. When living late finished his little talk, the strave Howard announced that Mr. Wilbur would be to hear Pres. Johnson (which Mr. Wilbur obviously had no precious intention of doping). The remainder of the evening, nevertheless, were the two young Christian soldiers—President John Christian president President Jones—whom providence prepared and commanded to carry on the work begun by General O. O. Howard and General Clinton Disk shall have been in vain. And this, despite the evident use of the occasion for political significance, attested by the presiding presence of the Administration's Negro prograneman, henceforth, and the participation of two members of the President's Cabinet—with a third momentarily expected until adjournment. Dr Jones spoke first. So great is this spiritual effectiveness that *hard boiled politician, New, was impregnated with it—which everybody present knew.* An Oyvorwhelming Force, Dr. Johnson was the last speaker. He is "John Jasper", Rabbi Wise. the best of old "Doc Grandison" of Bennett College fame, and the late Rev. Wm. H.

Howard and a university, nevertheless. The at Metropolitan A. M. E. in the vital interests of Fisk and of everywhere Negroes man. So overwhelming was his spiritual force that Secretary Wilbur established a precedent—unto resist its containing influence—by speaking twice on the same occasion. (Mr., Wilbur addressed the Daughters, of American Revolution, which prevented his earlier appearance, and when he reached this meeting he was almost immediately presented, without guidance in the way of a previous speaker to whom he may have listened, unlike his Cabinet colleague—the Postmaster General.) In keeping with the spirit of the evening, there was Miss Nannie Burroughs, herself encumbered of the burden of stably financing the great institution founded by her for training women and girls out on beautiful Lincoln Heights, pleading with Negroes to make their contribution toward preserving Fisk—which has preserved for America the Spirituals. Also, on the platform were seated Dr. Emmett J. Scott, newly designated "Premier" of Howard University by Presiding Officer Howard; Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, widow of the late Judge Terrell; his successor, Judge Cobb; Mrs. Georgia Douglass Johnson, widow of Henry Lincoln Johnson; Dr. A. M. Curris and Rev. J. C. Olden, Plymouth Congregational Church No Compromising. With South. Meeting was begun with singing of Spirituals by the Fisk Jubilee quartet, accompanying Dr. Jones on tour. Rev. Mr. Butler offered prayer, Rev. Olden made an address of welcome on behalf of Fisk Alumni, which was an appeal for money, the assignment given President Johnson on the program, and Mr. Howard presented Dr. Jones, Dr. Jones' address already has been well and largely distributed, as have been all addresses made on the occasion. Sufficient is it to state that the young Fisk President is not compromising with the South on higher education of the Negro. All Negroes fitted for higher education—and they are legion—must have it; not in the future, but NOW, is the way he puts it. In respect to industrial education, Dr. Jones said he found upon investigation that the shoe shop at Hampton had two men, shoe-makers repairing footwear for the Institution, but no students; that at Tuskegee, as well as at Hampton, practically no students are in the wheelwright and blacksmith shops, with their valuable equipment and machinery going to waste; while, at each the demand for the academic training is so acute until more space must be provided for the purpose, while both have college courses. Dr. Jones speaks invariably in the first person when referring to the Negro. His pronouns are: "we," "our," "us"; and for this reason many would take him to be a "white" Negro—as Dr. John Hope of Morehouse frequently mistaken to be a white person. He seeks $100,000 from the Negroes of America as a condition precedent to a gift of $214,000 from the General Education Board, and the availability of a million dollar endowment already in hand. He says: "We are going to give this hundred thousand in order to get that one million, 214 thousand dollars." New Is Brutally Frank. Dr. Jones was followed by Postmaster General New. Mr. Newrever equivocates on the race question with words or practices. He is frutally frank, a rough and ready politician. National Committeeman Howard stated in presenting him that never has the Postmaster General adversely decided a patronage case affecting Mr. Howard in Mississippi; and there have been more than 800 such cases to be decided. Mr. Neww was forceful as ever but there was the addition of the spirit of the evening. He congratulated the Negro for the maintenance of 70 Colleges in 20 states out of his own resources, revealed by a survey of the Bureau of Education, now in process. (Of course, the Postmaster General has no connection with the fact that not a single competent Negro is employed by the Bureau of Education for the survey.) On his first "appearance, Secretary Wilbur, who had requested the quartet to sing "Brudder Michael, hand down your robe," told of having heard this song in Annapolis while a midshipman at the Naval Academy 40 years ago. He decided to use as his subject when going to deliver an address at the Academy, the word "Rope," only DIZZINESS RELIEVED "I suffered with severe billious attacks that came on two or three times each month," says Mr. J. P. Nevins, of Lawrenceburg, Ky. "I would have dizziness and couldn't work. A neighbor told me of Theodore's Black-Draught and I began its use. I never have found so much relief as it gave me. I would not be without it for anything. "It seemed to cleanse my whole system and made me feel like new.

It was after the spiritually dynamic Mordecai W. Johnson had finished his appeal in closing the program that Mr. Wilbur agaar arose and spoke, concluding with Goebbels' promises—and he never fails—and men hold their faith, we shall find, union in strength regardless of face." Despite the obvious political taint the meeting was a spiritual, as well as a financial success for Fisk. It was the hour of Perry Howard, nevertheless, 'And looks as if it was an accident in the chain of events leading up to 'the reported not distant day when' Mr. Howard will be assisted in giving the ha hal to Mr. Thomas H. R. Clark, who called his hand for "hurrahing Coolidge" at a recent meeting. Pres. Adams Of Atlanta University Visits Land Grant Colleges, South Greensboro, N. C.-Dr. N. J. W. Adams, president, of Atlanta University, was a visitor, at A. and T. College Thursday. In an address at the chapel hour Dr. Adams recognized the growing importance of the state-supported institutions as centers of learning. A fine tribute was paid to the outstanding, private institutions, such as Fisk, Shaw and Atlanta, and the pioneering work that they had done. He advised the students not to slight any of their studies, however distasteful they might be. Instances were given of, men who had prepared for one line of work, but found themselves called into another; and their success had been possible largely because of their mastery of required but distasteful courses while in school.

Special 219.00 CHINESE LEADER ASKS NEGRO FOR A HELP, SYMPATHY Dr. Koo, Nationalist, In Talk To Students, Says China Needs Race Aid Bordentown, N. J.—The present situation in China should inspire the American Negro and oppressed groups the world over," declared Dr. T. Z. Koo in addressing an audience composed of students and teachers of the Bordentown Manual Training School, as well as white and colored townpeople. Dr. Koo, who is representing in this country some fifty guilds, banks and commercial organizations of China, is one of the leaders of political thought in China. He described the growth of national spirit in the Chinese republic and appealed for the sympathy and help of the Negro in America in behalf of that movement. Dr. Koo paid tribute to Dr. King of Gammon Seminary in Atlanta, who was a delegate some years ago to the World Student Christian Federation which met in Peking. No delegate from a foreign country made so deep an impression on the affections of Chinese members, and the effect of his personality is still remembered in that country. Suffering Women Mrs. GEO. LANGEFORD St. Joseph, Mo.—"I have taken Dr. Pierce's remedies during the past ten years and received perfect satisfaction from each one that I have tried. I do not think there could be a better tonic for women than the 'Favorite Prescription' nor a better medicine for a general debilitated condition of health than the 'Golden Medical Discovery'. And as a mild laxative or an active cathartic, just a trial of the 'Pleasait', Pellets stopped me from changing from one kind of pill to another. In short, the "Pellets" are all that could reasonably be desired"—Mrs. Geo. Langford, 918 Pendleton Street. All druggers.

No wonder that the writer of this let- ter, wlio seems 16 have come into con- tact .with educated Chinese, is disposed to.question the optimistic belief that there will be any sudden subsidence of anti-foreign agitation and general unrest in_the ‘new China that is throwing off the yoke of a century of submission to foreign, encroachments. Such -signs._,, thigge"gscribed in the Shanghai mae ‘ean be’ paralleled’ in many Southern cities ‘of.the United States with the substitu- tion’ f-the term “Negroes” or “Niggers” for! Chinese and where the signs are tissing ‘the spirit of them still prevails. ‘But it is one thing to practice race hatred aiid intolerance at home and another thing, to carry it abroad to force upon ‘the’ oldest civilized nation in the world: because of its internal weakness that has ‘made it subject to foreign aggression and pobbed! it of socalled concessions. “The belated action ‘of the taxpayers of the internatinal settlement at Shanghai, §n ‘adopting a ‘resolution recommending Yhat the public parks and gardens be Shade availabie to Chinese as well as for- ‘figners; is a tacit admission of the harm- ful effects of such a display of intoler- ‘ance. The deferring of the date for a jmorerenlightened policy to take effect dintil the present antiforeign agitation find general unrest had ceased, will ‘doubtless negative any good that might Fesult from such an open door policy. It fs to be hoped that the presence of ‘Ametican war vessels in Chinese waters (will be confined to the ostensible purpose ‘of protecting American citizens there on legitimate errands, commercial or other- avise, and of conveying them to places o} -exfety in case theit lives or property are threatened. The revolt. of the Chinese people ‘against foreign aggression and ex- ploitation has cvidently. been stimulated ‘by: such subtle insults as the signs in the Shanghai parks. oa >Aazis too often the case in such revo- Intionary crises, it is the comparatively innocent and well meaning forelgner, missionary, teacher or legitimate trader, who will pay the penalty in the loss of Jlife-or damage to property, at the hands ‘of the exasperated Chinese mobs, And then this culmination of insult and ag- gression will be used by the foreign na- tioms as a justification for shelling un- fortified Chinege towns and -extorting further concessions for more exploitagion. It should -be the policy of the United ‘Stated to art the part of peacemaker and protector of Chinese autonomy. But with its ‘record of similar racial hatred and in- tolerarice at home, it might he expecting too mth of it abroad. However, if it can, exercise the spirit of tolerance and justice in dealing with the Chinese, the same qualities may be developed in deal- ing with domestic affairs.” AMATEUR ATHLETIC STAND. A tC A late. Wasociated. Rréss! di invitation extended to the National Ama; teur Athletic Union ‘to Hold its track and Reld championships in that city the! first, part of July. The grotnd assignéd for this action was that under the rules: of the union, the city must permit Negro: athletes to compete and there was 2 \pos- sibility’ that such’ competition, “might cause race trouble. Of course.:.thiniren-, soning tasts"3 reflection upon the white population of New, Orleans, but :the city officials and the white business, men are responsible for, that: . The stand. of the Amateur Athletic Union “was tetsely defined. by Secretary Fred W. Rubien, who in discussing the matte, with’ representatives of the New York-papers, insisted that the Union as a national and patriotic body,. has no! right to, bar any mam from its games be- cause of race or creed. He was further quoted as saying: = “I had hoped Sat such a itand never _ would be taken In Ameriss., Negroes in the “past have competed for the United States in Olympic games abroad and have won higi honors there, What a siranite situation to refase them the right to compete in the Na- tional games of their own county.” “Possibility of racial trouble hes begn over ' estimated. “The games were held in New Orleans fifteen ‘years ago, in Jamestown, Va, in 1905, Baltimore in 1914, and at no time was there any indication of trouble result ing? ° _ Sceretary Rubien was said to have the backing of President Murray Hulbert and other officials, of the Union in his con- tention that Negro athletes must be ac- corded the same status as white compet- itors if New Orleans was to hold the contest. Not the least significant feature of this decision ‘was the fact that it ap- peared to be approved in every section of the country except the far South, judg- ing from the messages received at the local headquarters. of the Unien by tele- phone, telegraph or mail. According to one ‘sports Writer, these messages pointed aut the prominent part played by Negro athletes‘in international and Olympian competition and declared ‘nothing could be more unfair than to deny such men opportunity to compete for the ‘national titles of the: land they represent in in- tetrnational competition. me This broadness of Sentiment in ama- teur athletics is no, new thing, it having been proclaimed as far back as ° 1910, when James E. Sullivan, then president of the A. A. U., opposed the demand of Southern officials conducting a meet. be- low Mason jand “Dixon's line, th3t_Ne- groes.be barred from entry.” It“is a re- ‘markable thing“that in most sports and athletic games, the color line has been at times almost obliterated. Probably this was largely because if it was upheld competition would become a farce, mere- ly establishing the fact that one white contestant was better than another. The records made by’ colored contestants in both amateur and professional athletics showed that they possessed the brain, brawn and stamina to qualify in most any branich of sport. Aside from the physical and oftimes financial advantage gained by this oppor- tunity to’ participate on equal terms in {tliletic competition, there is a moral ef- fect.hard to estimate in raising the status of the race in public sentiment, In a ‘courdtry like the United States, Where a \champion in any line of athletic sport commands more public attention and ad- miration than most ministers or states. men, the entrance to amateur competi. tion fs not to be lightly estimated. — - The officials of the Amateur Athletic Union have again proved themselves good sportsmen: Tn the popular” endorsement of their stand is seen the redeeming, vir- tie of the American predilection for a fait field and no favor. The fearful of- ficials and citizens of New Orleans should profit by this demonstration. CALL FOR COOPERATION. . One of the features of the various ‘ex- ercises held in memory of the late, Booker T. Washington. founder of the National Negro Business. League, was the opening of what was styled Negro Trade Week, under the auspices of the local business league; at Jacksonville, Fla. :Albon L. Holsey, secretary of the national. organ- ination, was the principal speaker, the keynote of his address being the necess- ity of cooperation. Among other things he said: . “From pulpit, from platform, and from the editorial pages of our newspapers, leacers of ‘our group are sounding the call of - co-op- ciation, and warning us to lay aside petty bickerings “We need business enterprises of ceverr keind and character (9 take cafe of our: needs in food, clothing and shelter, and in propor- tion as we establish and support such en- terprises. we will gain the respect of other Aroups. we will, strengthen . our own race Economically ‘and ‘we ‘will provide 2 perma: nent and enduring” future for our children, Need we say more in support of this. chal- Tenge than to tell you that of every. dollar ‘spend by the Negro for the actual necessities of life only six cents find their way into tha cash rexiber of Negro, business. Lo I we estimate a profit of twenty-five, per Sento each purchased awe. rmake, clear THE NEW YORE: £68" { a) fact, for, necepyiti¢s B cent and a ‘half. go "Jo. or’ own merchants, while - twenty-three ‘and a half centargo to buy yachts and, villas + for merchants of other races." ai This economic view of the nacessity vi cooperation in the support ‘ of”. busines; enterprises promoted by members of the race, for the purpase -of providing the essentiils of everyday living, is a fai sample of Mr. Hqldey’s ‘logical Teasoning in advocating the cause for which thé Business League stands.” It is only’ by Such concrete examples ‘of. the purchasing newer of the dollar and the small portior that is"retained for circulation within th race, that the spenders can be arotised to the losses they are inviting and suffer ing by indifference to the promotion. o Sur own business enterprises. The awakening of the race to the im: portance of building and supporting re tail business by persistent and generou: encouragement, is one that calls for al ‘the vim and vigor that Mr, Holsey car put into his addresses. The interests 0 the National Business League could noi be serve to greater advantage than by repeated insistence on this theme. Mr Hulsey could not have set himself a mor: impootant task in the program of accel erating: the growth of “economic .inde meadenda aieme the: tate. EXTENSION OF “Y" WORK. fhe present crive of the doung Aicns Christian Association to raise 2 sum ranging in the millions for the extéision ‘of the work of that organization, is an index to its growth during the past three quarters of a century. This:growth has been marked by various: phases of con- flict with publiq sentiment, as was re- called by an editorial wtiter on the New .York Evening Pont.. Early in its career, is is said that the instiation was- almost disrupted by the admission of Mrs: Stowe’s antislavery- pea, “Uncle Tom's Cabin,” to its reading room: The instal- Tation of its first billiard table marked anotlier ticklish moment, While the em- ‘ployment of a boxing instructor brought 2 storm ‘of protests, But the institutiod survived all these innovations for the beneft of its mem- bers and it was a secretary who is said to have invented basket bail in 1892. The local organization erected its first build- ing in 1869 at the corner’ of Fourth ave- nue and Twenty-third street. During the first ten or twenty years of its existence, it was not an unusual sight to see col- ored youths availing themselves of, its privileges without comment or objection. However, the spirit of ségregation later prevailed and in order to widen the in- fluence of the institution among colored people, separate branches were estab- lished both in Manhattan and, Brooklyn. This: work of segregation was accepted by,both groups as 2 compromise that Promised’ to facilitate the progress of the work, Whether it also imptied an,aband- ‘onment of the principle of equal rights remains to be seen. | The general purpose of the organiza- ption in affording mental, moral and phys- ical training for young.men is. of course, to be commended. The extension of the facilities afforded for the housing and feeding of youthful workers and students, whd come to New York from distant homes, is also a valuable feature of its work. ‘That, these facilities could be multiplied to. advantage goes without saying. It is proper that colored youths should pafticipate, in these advantages, both for their own sake and for the sake of the community at large, It is.a micans toward building up a useful and progress: ive manhood for the race, if due care is exercised in the choice of suitable human instruments for that purpose. While The Age has had reason at times to criticise certain features of Y policy. it believes that the general purposes of the organization are helpful and to be commended. A broader humanity, fener discriminations as to race and color, sind a more liberal policy in the recognition of the separate groups to a voice in the management of their branches would tend to inspire a fuller appreciation of the usefulness of this work.” THE WORKHOUSE LAUNDRY.

Wad CHURCH ACTIVITIES IN GREATER NEW YORK First Emmanuel Church At the 11 o'clock services Sunday, Pastor Bolden preached from the seat: "And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord, and My God, Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because he hast seen me, the hast believed; blessed are they that have not seen and yet have believed." St. John 20:28, 29. Theme: "The Humanity of Jesus Becomes Divine and Immortal." were highly spiritual and appropriate, coming at the closing of the spring rally, and also the winding up of seven successful years at Rask Church. Next Sunday, at 3 o'clock: Holy Communion will be observed and a special sermon will be preached. A 11 o'clock, the junior choir will sing. Bethel A. M. E. Church The usual Sunday morning crowds thronged a way into Bethel A. Pastor Bolden said: It seems to be growing more difficult for the enlightened people who have, about the life, teaching, death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ the Emmanuel, to believe in Him as the human divine person described to us in the four gospels. The truth of His virgin birth and resurrection from the dead are the greatesttaint in the world, a legacy from the present plane of human consciousness. The preaching and teaching of the gospel therefore has been and is still a stumbling-block to the Jews, the nation from which He sprang, and to a large majority of the Gentiles, foolishness. To devout believers, our Lord Jesus Christ the Emmanuel's life, miracles and resurrection, are unsolved mysteries that reverently attract them and hold their attention to awe. We are told by the power of us, we realize that His power in human history and His Allness of Power *w.* both in heaven and in earth, is the supreme, transcendent reality. And the controversies and opinions are valueless and untrustworthy to give inspiration and comfort to a sick and dying humanity unless the ideas are eternal wells of spring truth up unto everlasting life, into the consciousness of illuminated human divine beings, sending forth on word and thought vehicles the eternal life energy stream. The questionings and challenges of the truth concerning our Lord Jesus Christ the Emanuel's bodily resurrection and the declarations and testimony of the truth of the same, arose and had its great battlefield among the apostles, disciples, and followers of our Lord. They had been cast into the abyss; they had been sent out to preach, and teach by Him; and in His last trial and supreme sacrifice they had followed Him afar, off and watched His crucifixion, knew of His death, His burial, and place of the same. Though He had told the leading ones among them circumstances of His trial, death and restreasure, and that He would arise after three days from the dead; still when the climax came they did not realize the truth of His sayings. Though He had informed their chief spokesman and leader, Peter, and the other members of the apostolic college, that they would deny Him and forsake Him, which they did, yet, they did not realize when they took this attitude at His trial and crucifixion that this foreknowledge of His concerning their behaviour should have confirmed them in failure and hope in Him from the dead and in His going away to prepare a place for them and returning, receiving them into Himself. This similar condition among believers has shown itself throughout the ages up until the present time. When Mary Magdalene, Joanna and Mary, the mother of James, and the other women that were with them, told the apostles that the Lord had risen from the dead and exhibited to them their testimony, their words seem to them as idle tales and they believed them not. When out Lord Emmanuel walked along the way with the apostles to Emmanuel and joined them in their conversation concerning His crucifixion, death and resurrection; and later on in the evening, as a stranger, at meat with them, when He took bread and blessed it and blake it and gave it to them, their eyes were opened and they knew Him and He vanished out of their sight. And yet they have doubts as to the truth of His human body now divine. And when they told these things to Thomas, they said unto them: Except shall she say to me that the nails and put my finger in the print of the nails and thrust my hand in his side. I will not believe." "And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them, came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be to you. Then with He to Thomas, Reach hither my finger, and behold My hands; and reach hither thy hand and thrust it into the heart and thou less, but believing. And Thomas answered and said unto Him, My Lord and My God, Jesus saith unto Him, because thou hast believed; blessed are they that have seen, and yet have believed." God grant that you and all other believers may realize the blessness of hearing in the eternal humanity, as well as all that of our Lord, and live and act there in the hope of the glory that is promised to us. 2 p.m. Sunday school was opened, a short review of the lesson was given by Miss Carline Bland and Master Joseph Cantwell.

St. Paul Baptist Church the pastor, accompanied by deacons, choir, and members, went over to Brooklyn to Antioch Baptist Church Tuesday night, April 19, in the ninth anniversary of Rev. Moses Payslor. The pastor prepared a message on "A Pastor's Worthiness of Reward," and gave the outlines of it. The B. Y. P. U. Wednesday night was a discussion of the topic: "Understanding Death." Friday night the prayer service was well attended, as was Sunday morning. Sunday morning, the pastor presented the order of service and the new Order was carried out. Rev. Dr. James Williams of Saratoga Springs brought a message in the afternoon. Rev. Shelton Anderson, of Va., preached, under auspices of the Progressive Club. In the evening the pastor preached on "Aim High." Harlem Second Seventh Day Adventist Church "Fellowship With Christ," was the theme of Pastor Strachan last Saturday morning at the Harlem Second Seventh Day Adventist Church on 127th street. The theme was suggested by a text found in 1 Corinthians 19. The pastor began by saying: "One day nineteen hundred years ago, Jesus took a stroll along one of the public roads in Gallice. Two men followed close behind him. One was named John, the evangelist; the other, Andrew, Simon's brother. The hearts of these men had been thrilled by what they had seen and heard of Jesus, so moved by an irresistible impulse, these men proposed to remain in the immediate presence of the Saviour as long as he permitted them so. "They longed to speak with their new found Master, but they were so awed they dared not part their lips. In the journey they kept near enough to hear, Jesus speak, but they themselves were content to remain silent. "Knowing and understanding all, Jesus suddenly wheeled in His path, and inquired of these men where were they going, what did they want, were they particularly interested in Him, and why? With thanks for the privilege of replaying, John and Andrew answered: Dear Master, we are animated by Your Person, we are enraptured by Your Presence in the way we touch our hearts, if our trailing behind You annoys You we beg to be forgiven; if not, then our greatest and only desire is to be near You where we may always hear You speak. "The request of these two men was gramed; and what is more, both were permitted to sharg the bed and bed of Jesus at the hotel that same night. John was a man deep and ardent in his affections. Andrew possessed a keen and thoughtful mind. Both were to astonished and joyful over the intimate fellowship. Greet them that they hastily gave a note to the former and dispatched it to Simon telling him they had found the Messiah. "Just as the sun was about to set, another evening in Galilee. Christ familiarly tapped the three men on the shoulder and had them follow Him. He led the way up the side of a tall and commanding hill. When they reached the crest the golden light in the western skies faded; a pallet of evening dress was chosen and all four travelers stretched themselves upon the ground for a night's repose. "Jesus unfolded, to these three men, to the earth, to the world, affering and, death recurrently, WHERE TO GO TO CHURCH Their hearts grew sad, for they loved their Lord and could not for a moment entertain the thought of separation from Him. Fellowship with Jesus was sweet indeed. They had walked and talked and dined and slept with Him and, why could it be so bad, be why, and it seemed cruel. The were. He comforted them with words and bowed His head and prayed for them. Faith and courage were given them. Suddenly a bright light appears over their heads; the sky is opened the gates of heaven are seen, its radiance descends upon them. The Saviour's form, enveloped with divine glory. He rises to His feet in Godlike splendor, His ralent shines like the sun. O, what an experience for common people to pass through What condecuement with rusty fisherman Here is heaven itself in intimate fellowship with humble beings. "What is the secret of it? The secret of the whole matter lies in the fact that men in those days possessed an unconquerable low for Christ. Christ is the same condescending Saviour today that He was nineteen-hundred years ago. The reason thousands of professing Christians today fail to have sweet communion with Christ don't love his Spirit did years ago. I am sure Christ in heaven longs for the same friendly intercourse with men that He enjoyed with Andrew, Peter, James and John. "Many of us today, are striving todo the work of Christ, and we have not really gotten acquainted with Him as yet. We are ignorant of His word, and foreigners to His spirit: how can we ever hope to have His Holy Presence. There is positively something wrong with a man's religion with his wife or close fellowship with Christ. Christian living is no more nor less than being with Jesus and learning of Him. Abiding with Him. "The Christian religion has to do with more than opinions, theories and doctrines. It is a vital connection with Christ. It is an intimate fellowship with Christ. It is vain to talk about Christ and THE NEW ABBYBISIAN BAPTIST CHURCH, 1338th Street, between 9th & 10th Avenues, 48 p. m., public school with preach- ing; Sunday school, 1130 p. m. Fr. 7:38 p. m.

St. Benedict's Fair Everybody has been talking of St. Benedict's fair since it opened last Wednesday night. Not everybody has been coming to the fair, for it rained two nights, but they are all coming this week and next. The fair will continue till May 7. Every feature which people have associated with similar undertakings by St. Benedict are to be found in the present one? beautiful decorated hall, radio sets, victoria, gold, silver, precious stones, furniture, garments, nick-acks, etc., and then the ladies buying in attractiveness with the articles displayed on the tables. The McCormack Victrola-Radio made a great hit on c Sunday night when an audience sat down to listen in on station WLWL. There was a splendid concert of vocal and instrumental music by several artists from the Metropolitan Opera House, and Hayes broadcasted his speech in the evening of the ocular Charities Drive for 1927. Every note was heard distinctly in all parts of the hall even the faintest vibration of the strings in the violin solo. No need to go into details describing the attractiveness of the fair. It would be impossible to do them justice. The only practical advice is "Come and see them for yourself." Whatever profit is to come from the fair has been spent already, at least in imagination. The church building must be repaired and decorated, and the Nursery must be repaired and improved. Anyone, who is good at figures, taking into calculation the high cost of material and labor, could easily estimate how much is needed. Next Sunday morning the Lord's Supper will be administered. Prior to this service the ordination and installation of the newly elected elders of the church. David J. Bruce and David B. Fulton, will take place.

Gus Moore, Charles Major, Willie Ritola Are Stars In First Diamond Track Meet Held By 369th Infantry Despite unfavorable weather conditions, the first annual track and field championship meet of the 369th Infantry, N. Y. N. G., proved to be the most successful ever staged by colored athletes. White and colored athletic organizations cooperated, and while the white boys won most of the prizes, some very promising colored talent was brought to light. 1 One of the outstanding performances of the meet was the winning of the 70-yard handicap dash by B. Blanchard, a Textile High School athlete, from a field of experienced runners. Among his competitors were Randy Taylor of Tufts College, who is the New England champion for the 70-yard event, and Vincent Ottley of St. Bonaventure's College. Young Blanchard had a nine yard handicap over these two star runners, and this was too much for them to overcome. Jerome Otley jr., brother of Vincent, was second in this race, and Benjamin Green of the Century A. C. was third. The time was 7 3:5 seconds. Beat Nurmi's Outdoor Time Willie Ritola, the "Flying Finn," turned in the best performance of the meet when he set a new indoor record for 5,000 yards while competing in the 3 mile race. The Finnish-American star was clocked at the 5000 yard post in 13 minutes 29 4-5 seconds, whereas the former record (also made by him) was 13:39. It was established two years ago in Cleveland. Ritola conceded a large handicap to the field of rivals but experienced little difficulty in overhauling them, and was many yards in font at the finish. His time for the three miles was 14:11 as compared to his world's record of 13:56 1-5. But the record for the three miles was one fifth of a second faster than the world's outdoor record field by P. Nurmi. Athletic Officer of the 369th Infantry; N. Y. N. G., who was in charge of the successful Track meet of .15th Armory, Friday night. Lincoln Giants To Open League Season Sunday With Hilldale Another fine performance in the distance races was that of Gus Moore of Brooklyn, now a student of St. Bonaventure College. In the two mile handicap Moore defeated a large field of experienced runners, including Willie. Goodwin of the New York Athletic Club, the scratch man of the race. Although he had a handicap of 50 yards over Goodwin, Moore was much further than that in the lead at the finish. His time was 9.35 1-5 Goodwin was second and "Nick, the Greek" was third. The Eastern Colored Baseball League will open its fifth reason in New York Sunday afternoon. May 1, with a double header between the Lincoln Giants and Hilldale, at the home grounds of the Lincolns, the Catholic Projectory Oval, 177th street; near Tremont avenue. After leading a large field of runners until the last lap, Phil Edwards of New York University was beaten at the finish of the 1000-yard handicap by W. Warden of the 101st Signal Battalion. Edwards used up his reserve in sprints early in the race. The time was 2 minutes 31 seconds. Exciting High School Relays The relay races were especially exciting, particularly the teams representing the junior high schools of New York. In the 120 pound class, one mile relay, the team representing the Frederick Douglass Junior High School was beaten out by Dewey Junior High and the Elliash Clark Junior, High, but in the unlimited weight class the teams representing the Harlem school came in first. This team was composed of Austin, Harvey, Pond, Buckley and Dean. Several extra features have been planned for the opening and a number of public officials are expected to be present. In the lineup of the local team will be Montalvo, outfielder star, formerly with the Cuban Stars of Chicago, and who is now a storm center in the official circles of the two Leagues. George Fial, popular local athlete, will play shortstop for the Lincoln; and there will be the regulars—George Scales, "Rube" Chambers, Mason and "Pop" Lloyd, who along with John McGraw, is celebrating his twenty-fifth year in professional baseball. In the one mile relay for public, high and prep schools, teams representing DeLaSalle, Manhattan Prep and St. John's High School were winners in the order named Bordentown Manual Training School had a team entered in this race but they failed to place. The inter-fraternity race was the only all colored contest of the night. In this race Epsilon Sigma Gamma was first, defeating Omega Psi Phi, Phi Beta Sigma and Kappa Alpha Psi, in the order named. The winning team was composed of William Dyson, Henry Smith, William Ash, Cliff Litorish and Albert Gurdine. Lincoln University's relay team was entered in the College and Club one mile relay for the Major Leo Fitz Nearon cup. The Lincoln team placed fourth. James Roland Dewey, Henry A. Stratton, Wilbur H. Stickland and James H. Grasty, represented Lincoln on the team. The visitors will have their regular team, minus "Bizz" Mackey, star catcher, who is now playing ball in the Orient, for Lewis, former catcher, is again the regular back stop, for Hildale. "Nip" Winters and "Red" Ryan, two of the best hurriers in the League, will probably be on the mound for Hildale Sunday. Charles Major of St. Bonaventure College so far out-distanced competitors in the running high jump event that this event was an exhibition. He jumped 6 feet, 4 inches, but could not reach his own best mark of 6 feet, 5 and 5-8 inches. Members'of the Amateur Athletic Union and the Public School Athletic League were officials.

The company left France on March 20-for a season at Buenos Aries, Argentina, and will probably play Brazil before returning to New York in August.

John Warren, he says, left Wooding in Russia and is now with the "Black People's Revue." "Opening a great knife with a nimble twist-of a dexterous wrist, and neatly implanting that same knife between a gentleman's floating ribs is one of the Hungarian underworld accomplishments recently studied by Lionel Barrymore, distinctly American actor. Barrymore, in his role of "The Greek," Budapest gangster in "The Show," coming to the Douglass Theatre for three days beginning Saturday, has to use his knife just as the Hungarians do on mischief bent. There's a trick to it—and it's unlike anything in America; in fact the trick seems rather difficult to one in whose blood runs several generations of Americans. Barramyre, however, practiced daily, with the result that he turned oht to be a good Hungarian murderer when the time came to murder before the camera. The picture is a vivid story of the Budapest underworld, directed by Tod Browning, John, Gilbert and Renee Adoree head the cast, which includes Lionel Barrymore, Edward Connellly and others of note. It is an adaptation by Waldemar Young of the famous novel by Charles Tenney Jackson, brought vividly to life by the spirited arting of one of the season's best cast. Director Browning, maker of many film thrillers, among them "The Mystic" "The Unholy Three" and "The Road to Mandalay," has turned out his hest picture in "The Show." Don't fail to see this most deeply stirring 'of all recent mystery pictures. Carlton Avenue Y. M. C. A. Enters Baseball Team In Brooklyn League The Carlton Avenue Y. M. C.

ERM et ie EARe THINGS SEEN, HEARD AND DONE AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYES On the second floor, in the eastern wing of a well known railway terminal building in this city, the first door to the left in the corridor, which strikes the eye as you emerge from any of the four elevators in this part of the building, is on one of this sign appears: "Emergency Hospital; hours from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m." Enter the door, pass through the first apartment, which is used as a sort of reception or ante-room, and you will find yourself in a miniature hospital, which is equipped with a complete collection of medical apparatus, appliances and antidotes for the treatment of emergency cases of injury or illness. It is the hospital of the railroad which owns the building, and its staff consists of two physicians and two nurses. The hospital is a rather democratic institution. Its patients are not limited to any particular race or class. The workman in greasy overalls, the white-coated waiter, the uniformed porter, and the prosperous looking passenger, are all treated here. And one day is hardly different from another in the variety and number of cases that coffee for treatment. From its opening to its closing, the personnel is busy with these cosmopolitan patients. This was strikingly portrayed one day last week. In the anteroom were a half-dosen or more Pullman porters who were waiting to undergo their yearly examination. In an adjoining room, sat a number of workmen from the various departments of the railroad's service. Some of these had their heads in bandage, some their arms, and some their feet. While this aggregation, of injured men were awaiting each his turn to see the doctor, in rushed a yard switchman, his face distorted by pain and fright with one of his hands almost severed from the wrist. The injury happened while shunting cars in the terminal yards. The doctor immediately turned his attention to this fresh case. He hadn't more than started his treatment of the injured man's hand, when a red-capped rolled into the hospital a wheel-chair on which reclined an expensively attired woman, who from all appearances, seemed deathly ill. She was stricken on an incoming train. Turning the broken-wrist patient over to one of the nurses, the doctor gave his attention to the sick woman. In the meantime, the number of Pullman porters had been augmented. Among these was a young man, just recently from the South. It is quite obvious from the questions he asked and the manner in which his eyes bulged, when the old porters told him with exaggerated arcliness, what the doctor was going to do to him; that he had never had a physical examination before. It was more than likely that he would have given up the idea that and there of becoming a Pullman portr, rather than submit to the test of physical fitness, if one of the veterans had mercifully informed him that so long as he was free of disease he needn't fear the examination. So the various cases come and go all through the eight hours that the dispensary is opened. The railroad hospital is an institution of modern times. Its introduction is one of the feature of modern railroading which may be best appreciated by seeing one of its kind is operation.

She starts from here on her annual literary of inspection, includes every district of Pullman, the United States and Canada. Chicago is her headquarters.

Mrs. Sara Price Patton, the efficient manageress of the Madame Walker's Manufacturing office and Hampton Institute, Va.-J. B. Pierce, field agent, Negro extension Work in Virginia, U. S. Department of Agriculture, tells of the aims and scope of extension work with Negro farmers, and cities instances of actual occurrences of this work has developed. Mr. Pierce says that one of the aims intended to be reached by this program is the developing of local community and county leadership by men and women to assist in this work. Continuing, Mr. Pierce said: "A community leader is one who, after having been taught an approved practice and adopted it himself, teaches it to others. Two cases given here to illustrate effect leadership in Greensville County. "Two years ago R. B. Young of Diamond Grove Community was taught to spray apple trees in the dormant, blossom pink, and calyx green leaves explained and applied in his orchard. This year, Mr. Young not only sprayed his own orchard without assistance, but directed the mixing of materials and spraying the orchards of community. The living solution was furnished by Young at a small profit above cost. His spraying outfit and service were given without cost. He is president of his community club and of the community club. "Jessie Cary; president of Shilloh Community "Club, makes regular visits to demonstrators to note progress being made on demonstrations with which they are charged and to assist them in community's program of work. Better Homes Austin Minnis of Chesterfield county is one of the progressive farmers of his community. He owns two farms totalling 105 acres. The home far is 56 acres is epiphyte in cocoungal with bath, rinsing water and furnace-heat. When Demonstrator Minnis moved to his farm three years ago, there were no buildings of any description. He built what he needed he could build his dwellings and other suitable farm buildings. Dwellings were nearby. Having a sufficient quantity of standing timber on his land, he was able to all stalls, framing and storm hinging to erect his dwellings, and build his furnace-heat. Beauty Parlor in New York, socially popular among the young set in this city, and daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph W. Price of Albany, N.

Madison to learn that his daughter, Miss Doris Madison, who now occupies an executive position in the Y. W. C. A. Germantown, Pa., was a visitor to her mother at Albany during the Easter tide.

He, himself dug the cellar of the house using team and scraper to take out the earth. Getting the lumber from his farm and digging the cellar himself was a considerable saving in the construction of the house. The construction done largely, by himself, with the exception of the stucco and plumbing work. Today his finished modern home is a credit to the community and county. "Will Witers of Stonewall Community in Appomattox County has been the owner of $1,200. He bought this farm about four years ago. There was at that time a log cabin on it in which he has lived until recently. The "Better Homes" discussions carried on from time to time in his community club, and conscious of the only cabin in his community, moved him, and a nice to story frame building is to result Junior Club Work There are 215 Farm Maker's Clubs with 1,824 members in the 24 counties of the State where extension work is being conducted among Negro farmers under the supervision of the V.

Reid, who departed this life April, 1926. Dear Brother how I miss thee! A precious one from us has gone A voice we loved is stilled; A place is vacant in our home, Which never can be filled.
