Among, the notable visitors was Mrs. Lucy, Andrews of Melrose, Mass, who is 73 years of age, but made the long trip despite her advanced years at the annual celebration. Mrs. Andrews, in a felicitous speech, recited the fact that she had named the A. M.

The quota for the Negroes of the city was $100,000, and it is hoped this amount will be reached when the final returns of the campaign are in Wednesday evening. The workers in the drive had reached only about 60 per cent of the quota up to Tuesday evening and unless some, extra large contributions are received on the last day, it is unlikely that the full amount of the drive would be reached. John E. Nail, campaign chairman for Harlem, is much pleased with the generous response of the people of this section of the city.

Detectives, Winter and Minter of the East, 126th Street Police Station arrested a young colored woman Monday afternoon, who they believe to be a member of a "furniture ring" that has defrauded Harlem dealers out of $100,000 worth of furniture. The woman arrested gave her name as May McCollin, 29 years of age, of JIS Edgerton avenue. Since the first of the year she has purchased a furniture, from a half century of Harlem furniture in this section of the city under the aliquas of May McPherson, Lucille Brooks, Mary Stack and Manie Hopkins. When arrested she was fitting up an apartment at 3 East 131st street with furniture purchased from the Garter Furniture Co. She gave her occupation as a dressmaker and with furniture delivered she gave what she had, done with other furniture purchased this year and the reason why she had moved about so much. several of the various furniture houses with which she had done business are reported to have part of their property to second-hand dealers in other sections of the city. Her method of operation is alleged to have been to go to a furniture store offering credit terms and order an expensive suite of furniture, making the initial first payment, and as soon as the furniture was delivered she gave what she had, done with other furniture purchased this year and the reason why she had moved about so much.

He unfortunately learned that while Malone intended to get a half-in interest in the million-dollar Poro College, the money involved in the entire settlement did not exceed $50,000. Malone accepted as his part $9,000 and his attorneys were paid $35,000, according to information given by one of Mrs. Malone's attorneys. Malone was brought back to St. Louis by friends who found him in the Sangamon County Jail. During the morning of last Thursday he had entered the home of a former St. Louis friend who was absent, and the friend's wife, who did not know Malone, called the police. In Springfield, Malone decided he did not get set about his St. Louis attorney, Edward W. Foristel, said that Malone had announced his intention of going to Springfield to live with a friend there for an indefinite period. COMELY HIGH SCHOL GIRL THDOWN OUT OF New, Rockhelle, N. Y.-Andrew Gibson, an unher of Blessed Baptist Church, was halled into Court Friday, May 13, on complaint of Miss Allie Vaughants, a comely high school girl, who alleges that, Mr. Gibson forcefully elected her from church Easter Sunday morning. The young women's scream as she was shoved roughly to the sidewalk brought a crowd to the scene and caused concern. When the case was heard in court, Miss Vaughants had a number of witnesses, but before they were heard, the Rev. Dr. J. B. Boddle, palor of the church, made a statement in behalf of Mr. Gibson and the case was dismissed. The mother of Miss Vaughants was away in, Newborn, N. C., at the bedside of her mother, who has since died, when the incident occurred. She was indignant when told of the affair of the young woman. They felt the mother was a bit too rough in handling the girl, even if she were disorderly, as he alleged.

Wm. Lloyd Imes, are rejoicing in the great spirit of enthusiasm and devotion to the church which was manifest in every department. several of the various furniture houses with which she had done business are reported; to have traced a part of their property to second-hand dealers in other sections of the city. Her method of operation is alleged to have been to go to a furniture store offering credit, a suite of furniture, making the initial first payment, and as soon as the furniture was delivered, she would call to a second-hand apartment who would come to her apartment and offer her an agreed amount of cash for the furniture that was sold she moved to another neighborhood and after a few weeks repeated the process. Alleged Employees In Conspiracy. One thing that made it possible for her to repeat the fraud so many times was that, the stores she called on were usually so anxious to get new accounts they did not actually investigate the customer, other than to ascertain that she had given the correct information about her place of employment. The person for whom the defrauding customer said he or she worked was, usually in the conspiracy, say the detectives. Among the stores that are reported to have lost money through the activities of Miss McCollin are the following 125 street establishments: Homingside Furniture Co., Bricken Furniture Co., George Fishel, and the Garber Furniture Co. The defectives are still working on the case, and hope to locate other members of the "ring" with nithe next few days.

Pledges received totalled $46,000. J. Edward Tompkins, of the Presbyterian Board of National Missions, was associated with the campaign, and with the lead campaign. His messages and tacit brought wonderful help. James A. Anderson, a member of St. James board of trustees, was chosen chairman of the "reiter St. James Campaign."

The report, also, stated that officials, after a rigid investigation, found no trace of a still. The apartment referred to was that occupied at the time by Mrs. Ellie Glenn Barley, the husband, Mr. Bailey. The Age story was based on the investigation made at the time by the fire, medical insurance inspector and several detectives, attached to the Police Department. Reports Due To Malice. Further investigation shows that there was no tangible basis for the report, that a still had been operated in: Mrs. Bailey's apartment, and it is believed that the official investigation was caused by malicious statements by individuals who are personal enemies to Mrs. Crudu-Bailey. The crime-Bailey is well known in "civil, religious" and "fraternal circles, and on the moving of the fire, scores of lier friends rushed to aid her in finding new quarters. It develops also that she was compelled to jump from the third floor to the lower floor of an adjoining building, sustaining minor but painful injuries, for which she was given first aid treatment by the warden and prisoner.

The facewell preaching service at the present St. James building "99 May 13th street" will be held Sunday May 19th at which the pastor will give the message, "Be always growing in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ." It is expected that the congregation of St. James will enter the new location on St. Nicholas square on Monday morning of Sunday, June 5 and a cordial welcome is given to members, friends and the general public. Throughout the month of June the church will be services, in celebration of this month, and organizations of fraternal and benevolent societies will be represented in the services. Glimmering goes the possibility, even remote the probability, of Harlem entertaining the Grand Lodge of Elks this coming August. For unless and until the New York groups, in the initiative—with the fraternity in entirely supporting—can bring about vacation of the permanent injunction which legally restrains the colored Elks in New York State in 26 days, the grand trustees will direct the grand exalted ruler to "proclaim" another convention city. Doubt that the Elks' Convention would be held in New York in 1927 began with selections of the Metropolis by the Convention at Cleveland in August, 1926, and has steadily increased ever since. This because of the Grattan' Law, which makes it a misdemonstrator for a colored person, to wear the Elk insignia or to be an Elk in the Empire State. It seems that there was good reason to believe that the legal disabilities would be removed and all risks eliminated longere Convention time, through the influence of certain prominent New York members of the L. B. P. O. E. of W. Froe's Legal Opinion. Mr Froe wrote: "It is, therefore, very apparent that this injunction forbids the use of the name, insignia, emblem and the insignia of the Court in New York. P. O. E. W. accepts the titles of the officers and the colors is now in force." New York could, and to the minds of lawyers, there is no offense in serious defy the mandates of the courts, and the importance of our honour under this form of government and, for any one to violate an injunction is an offense so serious that most of Decide Against New York. The situation in March of this year being of the status quo of March, 1926, and of any and every March, since enactment of the Grattan law, the trustees met and resoluted to direct the grand exalted ruler to appoint a committee of lawyers to investigate and report on the legal phases of the situation in respect to holding the case. The committee met, investigated, and reached the conclusion that the fraternity could not lawfully meet anywhere in New York State. Obedient to the mandates of the fraternity in convention, and desirous of holding the 1927 sessions in New York, but mindful and equally obedient of the trustees' directions, Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson requested an opinion on the legal phases' of the situation from the Hon. Arthur G, Froe, Recorder eds. a prominent West Virginian attorney, and a perience in higher court procedure and ways, Mr. Froe is of the same opinion as the fraternity's "special legal committee." $4,400 Given Fisk At Mass Meeting At Abyssinian Sunday $4,400 Given Fisk At Mass Meeting At Abyssinian Sunday The most successful education mass meeting ever staged in Harlem, was held by the alumni and friends of Fisk University living in New York at the Abyssinian baptist Church, the Rev. A. Clayton pastor, Sunday afternoon, May 15. Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, editor of The Crisis, and a graduate of Fisk, presided, and the principal address was made by Dr. Thomas Els Jones, the new president of Fisk, who spoke interestingly on educational work in the South and the needs of Fisk, in particular. The appeal for financial assistance from New Yorker brought generous response. Among the contributions received were $500 from Mr. and Mrs. William H. Wortham, and $500 from Dr. and Mrs. Walter G. Crump. There were several $100 contributions, among them belong one from Ex-Governor Sweet of Colorado, and one from Mr. and Mrs. John D. Saunders. The total in contributions hedges received amounted to $4,400. Good music was relied on, by the famous Fisk University, Quintet and Sonoma-Talley and Mrs. Norcum. Mrs. Ettilä Rechon Boste is chairman of the committee which made arrangements for the meeting. No Split. Probable. Those who talk about a "spill" as penalty for failure to convene the great black *Elk fragrance* in Harlem are reminded that an irresponsible person, such as the insignificant *white* *professional emergency* *hailer* who brought the ridiculous suit to hon. Waltner Cohen as a Federal officer at New Orleans, could gum up the whole work—simply by going before the permanent injunction of a *New York Court* is violated, whereupon nothing would be left for the court to do but to commit somebody to jail. Graud Exalted Ruler Wilson submitted the reports of the legal committee to the trustees at Chicago last Friday, and they immediately adopted a resolution calling upon the New Yorkers to clear up the situation of the lay and failing that, empowered the grand exulted ruler, to name another Convention city. In Up To New Yorkers. Though two categorical questions were submitted to Mr. Froe, namely, could an interference-proof parade permit be got in New York? Could a member arrested for parading get bail a remedy is pointed in his concluding paragraph: "The I. B. P. O. E. W. is composed of the best young man that can be found among the colorful youth of America. They really constitute the hope of America, and I am not in favor of this Organization, containing all these men of brains—lawyers, doctors, dentists, business men and other professionals—placing itself in a position of open distance of the law as it will seem, seems to me that with all the danger men in the State of New York, and the political power which the men of color have, there, they should have this law repealed, but that we should not attempt to nullify it or ignore it." J. Finley Wilson, grand exalted ruler, left here Thursday morning at 2:150 for Roanoke, where the Virginia State Convention, of Eliza, convened Monday. Mr. Wilson said that she is for New York, and hopes the brethren will be able to conform with the requirements of the trustees, who authoritatively speak for the fraternity in the greatest Pres.

"The organized labor movement bears the same check and balance relation in our scheme of economy that the co-ordinate branches do in our system of government, and until and unless this movement in entirety soon gets too fundamentally sound, too basically democratic, too cardinally humanitarian to countenance barriers against race and color the check will fail to balance and the movement itself will be greatest sufferer," declared Rienzi B.

Agents Wanted on Thursday, May 19. Brookwood is the organized labor institution of highest training maintained by *American Federation of Labor affiliation*. It knows neither race, creed or color, and, in conjunction with Urban League and N. A. 3. C. P. conducted a symposium on "The Negro in Industry" here on Thursday and Friday. Labor leaders, and unify workers attended in large numbers and wonderful spirit. *Gomperx An Altitist.* "Samuel Gomperx" Mr. Lemius continued, "was an 'altruistic opportunist'. Altitist by choice, opportunist through force of unavoidable circumstance." His was the task of integration of organized labor units by federation—federation of independent units—each of which is its own estimation of the number of workers the only ones will and wish to be regarded. Many of these units drew, and still draw, the color line these had to be coded. "Gompers did well his work, and passed on." Our heritage from him, however, is not to, keep up the coddling but to proceed to integration by federation upon the only reasonable 'hases', and, that is, every working man's feet must rest firmly on the ground of equal training union - opportunity, horizon, demotion and between working man and working must-go. Otherwise, the trade-union movement is gone! And because, ladies, and gentlemen of Brookwood, please you take the initiative to bring about the essential new 'dispensation', most sincerely and heartily, and congratulate and thank you! President Lemus's submission of the record, of his, organization's achievements was absorbing interesting. Treatment of dining car cooks-waiters, who handle serve and prepare food of the nation travelling up until the advent of organization, was even evident during the period of the ill health they were absolutely subjected to diminished at the whim or caprice of dining-car conductor management and patron, until labor turnover made it impossible to assure either良好 service, good or reasonable clean service. Wages, all of cooks were nominal and none of patrons or patrons of Pullmans but those who never were inside of Pullmans and never will be, the speaker declared. Now the dishwasher gets more pay than that of the average chef of ten years ago. All wages are greater than at that time; the organization got and kept the 6-hour-day and pay for service rendered in excess of the regular hours; daily, grievous, committee adjusts incidental duties; mutually satisfactorily -undreamed of before the war. Wins A Square Deal Three times did the organization which has never employed a lawyer, submit disputes, to the late Labor Board—two ex parte, and thrice a lawyer, submit disputes governing wages, rules and disposal of grievances are inforce on nine lines, thirteen others vitally important in the formation. In 1919, the organization got from the Railroad Administration an award of the 8-hour day and time and one half overtime, not just for its own members but for the industry in entirety throughout the land. About 20 per cent of dining-car cooks-waiters are white and black, and only white hen and members of the dining car employees brotherhood. Mr. Lemus held out great hope to the Pullman porters in the final outcome of their representation dispute now before the Mdiation Board, because their case is in charge of former. Gov. E. P. Morrow of Kentucky, Gov. Morrow was a member of the Railroad Leaf Board within Mr. Lemus presided over the dispute to the Board ex parte. The case had dragged on for nearly a year before finally carried to the Labor Board. "We won the case, and it was Gov. Morrow who finally said to the evasive rail representative. "Let us hear your side of this case if you have one." Now that rail representative deals with us on terms of equity and fairness, and an unusually damless chef restored an unusually damless seniority rights and with pay for all time lost, per the agreement still in force and effect." Lemus stated. The conference will adjourn tomorrow. Among the scheduled sneakers is A.

G. Shannon, Negro Pullman official of the department of authenticity on the Pullman Co. Union. By reason of the fact that the meetings were held on Pullman property and under the watchful eye of the superintendent the porter is fear of reprisals, made no reply. Mr. Shannon attacked the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters and attempted to vilify their leaders, whom he called cowards and skunked, but admitted that the group was not a threat to increase in wages and better working conditions. Ashley 'Totten, assistant general organizer of the Brotherhood, whose headquarters is in Kansas, headed the group. Shannon was an advocate. Mr. Totten said he, would go to the Pullman offices and debate with him. At noon, Monday, June 6, chapel exercises will be conducted by Academic graduating students.

After the investigation: was finished in the Brotherhood's offices, General Organizer Randolph went to Washington for a further conference with Mr. Morrow, the chief statistician and the secretary of the Mediation Board, Mr. Marrinan. Randolph Is Confident When a reporter asked General Organizer Randolph what was the outcome of the investigation, he observed confidently that it was quite successful from the point of view of the Brotherhood, thus as an investigator, he thoroughly prepared for said "investigation." He also pointed out that Mr. Morrow would* proceed to Chicago to institute an investigation of the Pullman Company and its claims of the appropriation Plan to represent the porters and around: the first of June he would be called to Chicago* to continue the hearing until the Pullman Company and the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters were brought in.

It is my impression that this is the benefit of 600 per cent of which has benefited from the 'benefits' held for the Flood Fund. I also note with great pleasure the long list of expert talent which made the benefit a great success. There are almost too many of them mention by my name, but with my pleasure I appreciate the appreciation of their willingness to help on the Relief Fund. You will be glad to know that all administration expenses are met by the National Red Gross from its general fund so that every dollar needed for the relief, will be spent for relief. Please accept through us the sincere thanks of the benefactors for the port of the call of the President, the Governor and the Mayor.

Porter, president, Nassau Congressional Church, Brooklyn, an audience of, Pullman officials, porters and friends at Grace Congressional Church in this city last Sunday, that the porters and maids of the railroad service, in the United, States represent the highest type of manual labor in this country, and that by nature, every colored woman was a lady man. And when any member of either sex failed to exemplify this reputation, she or he was not true to character. It was one of the best memorial exercises ever held, by the memorial of the Pullman Porters. Benkirk's association of the two districts. In a voice soft, 'yet penetrating; alluring but punctilious in its diction, he held the audience within this small sacred edifice in 'rapt power and majesty of Prayer, which was the theme of his sermon, and he apostrophized as a spiritual dwelling of seven rooms, each room representing a stanza of the Lord's Prayer. As enlightenment many of the hearers on the subject and leave them food for thought, was the speaker's query as to how long did it take one to make an efficacious prayer. The answers were many and varied. In Silas W. Branham, by Silas W. Branham, a young man, but a veteran porter, who asserted one minute as the minimum time. He only missed it by fifteen seconds. It took three-fourths of a minute for the preacher to answer it. It was on this prayer that he built his dissertation. 'Other speakers' were J. F. Mitchell, superintendent of the Penn Terminal, and S. A. Saring, not assistant superintendent of the Penn Terminal, for well chosen words, Mr. Saring told how the occasion, had affected him, and as a silent tribute to relatives and friends who had gone he requested the audience to stand in mite prayer for one minute. Superintendent Mitchell was more elaborate. He told how as chief of his district he had come into direct contact with the or- ganization, and he told me that the good which the association had accomplished by being able to aid the bereaved ones when aid was needed, convinced him that the organization not only provided a life of its members, but it was a feature of immeasurable Christian charity. Continuing, he said that one of the reasons, the Pullman Company, was in the welfare of the R.P.R. was a knowledge of these conditions, and the feelings of mutual loyalty that existed between the company's officials and the porters and maids. He predicted that the company would be one of the biggest and wealthiest organizations among colored people. The musical; part of the program was 'exceptionally pleasing. the vocal solo' of Mrs. Geraldine Kubler, the soprano of Sidhilah aghoral Choral; Society; the clarinet triet by Porters; H. C. Brown, F. Davis and -W. O.' Copeland; the recitation by little Miss Nathalie Tucker on trombone by J. W.

James Hunt, Figure In Historic Event 67 Years Ago, Is Guest of Church On 80th Anniversary of Beecher-s 1st Sermon Sixty-seven years ago a nine-year old slave girl with a round attractive face and the nickname of Pinky" was dramatically "sold into freedom," by Rev. Henry Ward Beecher from the pulpit of KETTU SHAW MAKING comfort a matter of first importance, Young has fitted each hat with a cool cushioned leather, insuring it to ride lightly on your head. New York's Greatest Assortment of Straws. Last Sunday, the woman who had been that slave girl returned to Plymouth Church to add her tribute to the famous preacher at the celebration of her anniversary of her preacher's first sermon in the church he founded. The years appear to have dealt gently and uneventfully with Mrs. Hunt, leaving her at 76, a child old lady; confirmed in thinking retirement from the prominence into which she suddenly was thrust. Strange Contrast As she stood Sunday in the pulpit of Plymouth Church it seemed hard to connect Mrs. Hunt with the fiery scene; enacted on the memorable Sunday, February 5, 1890, when Mr. Beecher staged his famous "auction sale," "both for the purpose of shocking the public consciousness into a station of slavery and raise the $90 needed to builn 'Pinky' from her Southern pastor. Dressed in black, relieved by white flowers on her hat, and wearing a black and white scarf and black elbow gloves, Mrs. Hunt presented a picture of the typical old fashioned, old lady. During the services she sat in a chair in the pulpit at the right of the Rev. Dr I. Stanley Durkee, pastor of the church, then finally on by him to address the gathered who completely filled the auditorium—some of them standing in the rear of the room—she arogs and read from typewritten sheets in her hand. Holds Reception At the conclusion of the services, Dr. Durkee announced that a reception would be held ante room at the rear of the auditorium, where members of the congregation would have an opportunity to meet Mrs. Hunt. He warned them, however, not to attempt to shake hands with her, pointing out that the physical strain might be too much for her feeble frame. The warning was easily necessary. The termination of the services was the signal for a virtual siege. Men and women crowded into the aisles land moved at a snail's pace through the corridor at the rear, patiently waiting their turn to sneak, a word of greeting to Mrs. Hunt. Evidently dismayed by the demonstration, Mrs Hunt was guided to a seat in the protecting space between two book cases in the ante room. With her arms filled with a huge bouquet of roses she sat there and responded with smiles and shy monosyllables to the greetings of the men and women who milled past her Ward off Hand-Shakers. The Rev. Clyde W Robbins, assistant pastor, and Dr. Morris C. White, an usher, stood guard on either side to enforce the pastor's prohibition against hand shaking. Despite all their vigilance, however, they could not save their charge from the more impulsive of her well-wisher. In her address, which she read in a low, clear voice, MPs. Hunt said: "It is with deep emotion that I greet you and congratulate you on this, your, eighth anniversary. I feel it a great privilege to be with you today, to join you in your celebration and especially to extol the memory of one whose name always seems to me to be the com- element of of youth, church, brooklyn, the Rose Garden, Ward Beecher. "There can be but a few of us present, who will be able to recall Mr. Beecher as he stood on this rostrum 67 years ago. My recollection, of this time is very meagre, only one incident standing out in my childish mind. My hair was combed back from my face and held in place with a long curved rubber comb, such as children wore at that time. Evidently Mr. Beecher had not noticed this before I was put on the platform, but when he did see it, he came quietly to me, removed the comb and said, "Never wear anything in your hair except what God put there." Mrs. Hunt Retiring Miss Eva Hunt, Mrs. Hunt's daughter, told reporters her mother was of an extremely retiring disposition and that it was with the greatest difficulty she had been induced to leave her home, at 411 Florida ave., Washington, D. C. to come to Brooklyn. Her father a well-known Negro lawyer now retired could not be persuaded to come at all. System Filled With Poison as a result of CONSTIPATION Mr. K. J. Black, of Kelton, S. C., says: "I could not eat and my feet at night was disturbed. I was troubled with the effects of gas pain, and I hardly had a comfortable day. I was nervous and worried. All I could do was to complain. I tried several things but I could get no relief. All my ailments were the result of chronic constipation, which caused my system to become filled with poison. "One day a friend suggested that I try Black-Draught. I began taking it right off. I continued the medicine for several weeks and since then I have felt fine. I am in better health now than I have been in years. Thedford's BLACK·DRAUGHT For Constipation New Dormitory Dedicated at Palmer Memorial Institute, Sedalia, N. C.

At 10 a. m., came the annual vocational judging contests under direction of the State Vocational Department, and at 12 o'clock there were dances on the lawn by the intermediate grades.

Newbold, presided at a service at which greetings from the State Department of Education were brought by Roy Thomas, State Supervisor Agricultural Education; T. R. Foust, representing Guilford County Board of Education; and Dr. S. G. Atkins, representing the 'State Teachers' Association. At this same service, Mrs. Charles E. Blake of Providence, R. I., brought a message from the Northfield Committee... The Dedication Exercises As the American Missionary Association has accepted Palmer Institute as an affiliated school, the dedicatory services of the new buildings were presided over by Secretary Brownlee of the A. M. A. The dedication address was made by Dr. F. F. Blanchard of Cleveland, O. and a splendid tribute was paid Miss Helen F. Kimball, in whose memory the family has provided for Kimball Hall, which is the school's dining hall. The building is also a memorial to Miss Lulu S. Kimball and Mrs. Clara Bertram Kimball. "Attorney F. P. Hobgood of Greensboro, who was the first chairman of the board of trustees, commented eloquently on the work accomplished by Mrs. Brown as principal of Palmer Institute, declaring that Mrs. Brown had done more for North Carolina in bringing about better race relations than any other person he knew, and this, he said, has made her a real citizen of North Carolina." The present chairman of the trustee board, E. P. Wharton, also spoke, and it was at this service that the trustees presented the loving cup, with Mrs Bright giving the flowers and chec'. Music Was a Feature At 7:45 p. m., Chairman Wharton presided at Greenbush Hour exercises, with Dr. W. T., Whitsett, next door neighbor, and W. C.

It was a noteworthy occasion, in that much of the substantial help given Mrs. Brown came from this state. One of the strongest friends of the school was the late Galen L. Stone of Boston, who befriended the school from 1915 to his death. Following, a fire late in 1916, which had destroyed the industrial building, commissary and foodstuffs, Mr. Stone's contribution was substantial. First, early in 1917, $10,000 for a new building; then in January, 1925, a $75,000 gift came from him. Students In Parade.

Despite .the testimony of- ‘fered as-to the atrocitics committed, this ‘investigation brought no active results. {E-Dolike Senator King of Utah, who vas eeftised admission to Haiti by President SRorno, or the American High Commis- ‘selonet, Senator Oddie was, warmly’ wel Seoined, probably because he was. expect- Jigd to refute the attacks upon the Amer- (Jedi otetipation.

Caro- lina, is ‘most depressing in its. manifesta- tions and misleading in its conclusions, How it could be judged. acceptable under the terms iof ‘the award is hard to con ceive. * ‘The, text: of the award reads: phat one thousand dollars is given “for the original American play performed in New York, which shall best represent the ed- fucational value, and power of the stage in raising the standard of good morals, good taste and good manners.” The only principle on which we can figure that Mr Green’s play could raise the standard in these three’ respects, would be that it illustrated a period and a place in which thése three essentials toward modern civilization were conspicuously lacking. This tack of good morals, good taste and good taanners was as tnarked ‘among the white characters in the drama as aniong the, blacks. .The dnly human’ emotions creditably represented were the spasmod- ic parental solicitude for ‘Abraham ex- hibited by fis white father and the un- failing'devotion of his long suffering wife. This same example of adjudging a Play to be capable‘of raising. social stang- ards by emphasizing the lack” of them, under certain circumstances, was appar. ent in the award of the Pulitzer prize last year te a play called “Craig's Wife." This play illustrated the harm that may be caused by a possessive wife who val wes her husband only for what she “éar get out of him, and slowly robs him o all friends and relations of his own, re ducing him to the stage as a mere. ap. pendage to her other possessions, unles: he can break away in time to save hi individuality. : It inay be that the Pulitzer -board o award had’in mind this method of rais mig standards by indirection, when i awarded the prize this, year as well a last, but it requires too much casuistica reasoning to justify this course of pra cedure.

The editur evutentt os the inns and Gwe ts oo hE: cance GE Gees ae al --- Organized in 1847, when it drew its membership alike from freedmen, escaped slaves and slaves, Concord Baptist Church, 186 Adelphi street; Brooklyn, celebrated its 80th birthday, beginning Sunday, May 15. A few members of the old Abyssinian Baptist Church who had gathered in Brooklyn organized the congregation. The first pastor was, the Rev. Sampson 'White' He and his successor the Rev. Joseph C. enter the church in the campaign abolition of slavery, which culminated, during two succeeding pastorsates, in the Civil War and the Emancipation Proclamation. In 1833 the Rev. William Thomas Dixon assumed the pulpit, which he held until his death in 1909. The Rev. William D. Moss, who came from Norfolk, Va., to fill his place, was instrumental in purchasing the pulpit for the 89 persons to the rolls during his term of service. He was succeeded by the Rev. James B. Adams, the present pastor. The Rev. B. G. Brawley, head of the department of English at Shaw University, was in charge of the services Sunday. Max Yergen, W. Peck, and John P. Spencer, on the new eaia which has opened for the colored man. The history of the church was outlined by the Rev. C. Lavoisier Franklin; assistant pastor. The Charles F. Marrow Memorial organ was dedicated Sunday night. In its entire history, the church has received 12,033 persons. Of that number, 253 were served. The service Sunday afternoon was a joint observance of the church anniversary and the 25th anniversary of the Carlton Avenue Y. M. C. A On Monday night, the Rev. Mr. Haynes, of Talladega University spoke, and music was furnished by old choir members. C. Powell of Abbyssinian Baptist; Church, Manhattan, was the speaker, and the reception marking close of the anniversary was held Wednesday night. The pastor, Dr. Adams, left Tuesday night for Atlanta, Ga., to deliver a speech at the Spelman College's new church, the gift of John D. Rockefeller. First Emmanuel Church At, the 11 o'clock service Sunday Pastor, Benedicat, preached from the text: 'There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial; but the glory of the celestial is one and the glory of the celestial anomie. Corp initiates 15-40. There.' Then, 'Who should consider and value your celestial bodies.' Pastor Bolden said: Individuals, groups and nations live and act within the radius of their acquired knowledge and their instinctive faculty. The mass of human beings move very slow in their unfoldment, in a consciousness of higher orders of the expression of upheaval of human nature, of truth and mountain peaks of spiritual understanding. Hence, almost 2000 years is but a short period in the thought evolution process in the mind of humanity, towards accepting, and demonstrating the importance and reality of the spiritual consciousness, that governed every word, thought and act of our Lord Jesus Christ: the Enthusiast. The great Gentile, Apostle Paul, acquires the knowledge and understanding seems to have a greater understanding of the functioning of our Father, God. In the Trinity of bodies that constitutes man. The average person knows, but little about their own material bodies. Though through their five senses they are conscious of its existence of its general needs, and of its limitations and its possibilities for growth, development and expression, and as to their knowledge and understanding of its mind, the body in which the facilities receive energy from the brain, that enables certain teachers and scientific leaders to create forms of government, realms of activity, great cities and empires, and control natural elements and subjugate forces to his will; they know very little, when compared power manifested mind of our God, Christ the Enmanuel. As to the thought on celestial bodies, the heavenly, in which spiritual consciousness is supreme and where the divine life energy seems to generate and flow through the mind, illuminating the five senses, and radiating our gross material body, is known of many and of people. This is the body, the body celestial, the body real, the body that is not affected by the natural elements, the body that human government and nature's laws cannot affect, that should be given the chief place in our thoughts, because it lifts us in consciousness of divine order and unity with our Father God, His Only Begotten, and the first-Born from the dead the Enmanuel, and companions us with the His Spirit. At 2 p.m., the Sunday school was opened by the pastor. A review of the book was given by the children, led by Miss Lillie Hoggan, one of the teachers of the school. In the evening Pastor Bolden gave short talk to the many assembled.

Said the minister, "These words of the Saviour were spoken in the city of Jerusalem more than nineteen hundred years ago. It was near the time of his betrayal and death. Jesus had disclosed to his followers the sad problem of his merciless dominion end; his followers could not comprehend nor entertain the thought that their master would be taken from them in such a manner.

Hence, in more than one way, they endeavored, to banish the idea altogether from the mind of their master. The disciples knew that, Jesus had political and ecclesiastical enemies; but they could, indeed, be confident, and finally triumph over these, and take a place at the head of the nation. Consequently, any program of sacrifice, suffering, and death, was incompatible with His great mission in the earth. He did not bear to hear Jesus speak about any cruel end being visited upon Himself. They chose not, to believe his forecastings in this matter. Their reluctance to believe Jesus was said in Him to be weak and subficial. "So now Jesus gets. Himself to the task of teaching His followers that a program of sacrifice and deliverance is essential to his mission the earth. He tells them, that, without this program he could not accomplish their redeemption, Their eternal salvation defended require to pay the debi. And because Jesus told his disciples that, He could not again be restored to the glory. He had with His Father in Heaven before the world's were, that he would be sacrificed for sacrifice, suffering and death. "Now after making those things clear before His disciples, He next lays down, before them the uncompromising terms, of their fellowship with Him. Said He, exe- cuse, that He has in this world, he cannot be His disciple. There is the text, said the minister; and it declares unqualifiedly that, a man has must be hauled in, given up, laid must be hauled in, given up, laid that man can be laid, before that disciple. Judging from the text quoted and the one number 28 it certainly costs. something to be a follower of the lowly Nazarine, the kingdom of heaven is not re- sulted in, because he entires there pay dearly, for it. It cost them there to get in. "I realize that what I am saying now is related somewhat to the doctrine of works, which we are teaching. But the bishop of the early Christian _church, the Apostle James, has left us some cautions in this matter; for we read in James 2:17, 20, 24, 25 that faith apart from works is a matter to be sure. would not for a teacher the making of works a sort of a house of _correction for disobedient Christians; nevertheless, nobody will contend that Jesus Christ repudiated works; he rather sought flowers. He said, greater works than do, because I go unto my Father, "The ancient Jew understood that Jehovah had a right to ask him to give up his possessions, his affections and his life, as an institution, at all times, and a victim upon it, when occasioned. Now when measured and weighed, these were rated to enormous values. The Hebrew gave his first and best to the Lord. The widow gave her visible means of earthly support to the lord and nothing more. The man of the Christian disciples today. The teachings of Christ are, that if a man cometh after Him, and hateth not his own father, mother, wife, children, house lands yea and his own life also cannot be His disciples. The forfeiture of these evinces the love and devotion of the early Christian believers. "Abraham must have regarded himself as offering the super-sacrifice when he placed his son Isaac before him, and was doing the same thing when he prayed to the Lord to blot him out, and spare the people. Paul no doubt referred to those far-off days when he said, some wortles, some about in mountains, caves and holes of the easthood, slain with the sword, and sawn asunder. It certainly cost men something in those far away days to identify themselves with the cause of heaven. "What meager sacrifices we make the cause of Christ in these modern dayal. When some of us part in this work, we have done Christ's church a great favor. The money we give to Jesus today is a poor pittance compared with the amount we spend in amusement and entertainment if we do not have a church member boards his money it will rust; if he spends it alone upon himself and family, he loses a blessing. There is no better place to put that money than in the hands which bear the payment. "If Jesus dwells in our hearts, we will not cling to our earthly possessions, we will not count them dear unto us, but count them jadfly, the feet of jadfly. For somebody in these last days to be counted as a disciple of Jesus Christ may mean that, he shall no longer enjoy the comforts of a home surrounded with his loved ones and him, for the mission field may mean the sacrifice of these. Dr. Howard B. Cross, a young physician, sailed from New York a short while ago, as one of the staff of the international Institute for the Institute bound for Mexico, to assist in the research work that was to be carried on at Vera Cruz, looking toward the study and eradication of the yellow fever germ there. The doctor fitted for the indication of the dreaded germ. He never recovered, but died a willing victim; sacrificed upon the altar of science, for the sake of humanity about him. The doctor was 32 years old, and devotion to a cause that prompts us to give up. "We are sometimes ready and willing to give up those things which we afterwards learn to be harmful to us. But, the cause of righteousness, truth and holiness may demand that we give something that we carefully wish to legitimate. However dear anything may be to a Christian, he must stand ever ready to give it up if the providence of God and his sacred Word indicate it. The outstanding event in this nuance by the sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross. The *dominant*, spirit, in the hearts of men on earth should be, the *strictful*, spirit. Were the *whole realm* of nature ours, that would be a *tribute* for ours, that would be a *tribute* for us was so amazing, so divine; it demands our life, our soul, our all." Bridge St.A.M.E. Church If Christ means: anything to us as christians. He means that nothing can shut out the joys of life, no matter what comes or goes. The christian life should make us teckleas, undaunted and inviting to Jesus. He did so during the course of his morning sermon. It was the last sermon before the annual conference and over 1,000 people crowded into the church to hear his message. Dr. Tyler spoke from the text, "But you shall supply all your need according to your riches in glory by Jesus Christ." Dr. Tyler also stressed the point that church members, should not become so attracted to a minister that they lose sight of God, for the minister is only God's instrument for doing work. He spent the church, At the evening hour Dr. E. H. Coil, secretary of missions of the A. M. E. Church, filled the pulpit. He spoke from the text Isaiah 43: 10. He stressed three points as the essentials for being competent witnesses for Jesus Christ. First we must have real knowledge of Jesus, a spiritual sense; second we must be faithful, a charitable third, we must be faithful. Each one of us must spread the gospel and not depend upon the pastor to do it all if we want this world to become the kingdom of our Lord and Christ. Following the sermon 17 persons were received into full membership. On Monday night, May 16, a fellowship supper was held at the church. We was under the auspices of Pasteur's College, an auxiliary of the church. It was largely attended. On Wednesday the annual conference started at Bethel Church, Manhattan. Many officers and members of the church attended. On Sunday morning, May 22, Dr. S. M. Morris, secretary of the Allen Christian Endeavor League, will be the speaker. Nazarene Cong. Church "How to treat your enemy" was the subtitle of the sermon by the Rev. Dr. Henry Hugh Proctor at the morning hour, who held that the only thing to do with an eneer of him, and the way to make a stand out of him was to love him. At the evening hour Max Yergen, the African Y. M. C. A. worker, gave an inspiring address on his five years' work in South Africa. In the afternoon Dr. Proctor gave an inspiring sermon at Pulpit Points Benefit Association of America, at the Grace Congregational Church Harlem. Dr. S.

The pastor brought out the fact: that Christianity did not begin as resting upon any one man; all men stand equal in the sight of God; that they can to five daily according to the will of God; those who live closest, walk most consistently, worship God with the sincerest purpose of heart, looking, living, working for God may be the first.

A large crowd from alster churches, accompanied their pastors each evening, and the musical renditions by the choirs and other special talent were sublime. Dr. Frederick M.

The while officers and a large representation of the membership of the church received special invitations, were present on their nights in groups, and donated largely to the success of the celebration. In accordance with the annual "Father and Son" day, last Sunday the pastor, Rev. W. C. Brown, preached a special sermon at the rooing hour, "Making Mert Soon." The last Holy Communion of the conference, year, was administered at the evening service in a large number. The pastor spoke on, "The Religious Value of the Lord's Supper."

Last: Sunday, Grâce-Church held the usual morning and evening services; with a special afternoon service. The minister preached on the seven stars; and the seven candlesticks from Revelations 2:1, a sermon that was an interpretation of symbols. He made the stars to symbolize the seven virtues; the dartikets to represent intelligence. Christ represents both these and becomes both to every deliver. The choir had an, oc day and was not as full as usual, but the pastor used his opportunity and was able to urm two recruits for the church, Mrs. Ceciline Levy and Mrs. Catherine Carter. Mrs. Ceciline in the name of the Press Club Women invited contributions of clothing and household necessities for the flood sufferers. In the afternoon at 2.30 o'clock, the Pullman* Porters' Beneficial Association held a memorial service. An offering of $50 was taken for the flood sufferers. This fund is credited to the Porter's Beneficial Association—distributed by *Grace* Association—marched through the proper authorities. The anniversary was largely attended. Their band rendered several selections. The exercises were long, but interesting. The night service was a memorial by the Calumet Cycle Club, Mr. Washington and another member of the club sang solos. The secretary read a historical statement and Rev. A. C. Garner preached the sermon. Presentations were made to the church, pastor, organist, ketton. This sermon closed an eventful day at St. Church.

We must not leave out the brilliant red and gold uniforms of our Beaux-Arts. The band and the kitchen ornament from the Girl Reserve Department shared honors for the musical events of the carnival. Music and lacey flower decorations and the varied color of fancy dress made a real carnival spirit. Delicious suppers were served each night by various committees of ladies. Everybody who worked in the carriage worked energetically and we with them. We are also grateful for the friends who contributed numbers on the program throughout the week.

Hampton Institute, Va.—In a downpour of rain that failed to dampen the spirits of the contestants and spectators, Hampton's Blue and White trackmen and Bordentown's sprinters from New Jersey won on points in the sixth annual C. I. A. A championship track meet. All of the thirty-four events were hotly contested, although at times the rain was blinding to the runners. The time, distance, and height for a number of events were lowered to a great extent due to the downpour. Union University of Richmond was second to Hampton's 79 points with 29, for the collegiate division, and Manassas High School of Manassas, Virginia, was second to Bordentown's 346 points with 215. Three, teams, took their marks (Hampton, Lincoln and St. Paul) for the major event of the meet, the mile, collegiate relay. Stratton of Lincoln snatched the lead from Snowden of Hampton and gained about twenty yards. Derry of Lincoln, running second: lost about five yards to Clark of Hampton, while Fletcher of Lincoln conceded the balance of the fifteen yards distance, to Gray of Hampton. Baldwin of Hampton and Strickland of Lincoln -ran an even race, for about 220 yards and then Baldwin pulled out to bring the "Madame C. Walker Collegiate" Mile Relay Cup" as permanent property of the Hampton track team after three consecutive years of winning. The thrill came in the third lap when George Gray picked up the 15 yard load that Lincoln, had, and when Baldwin beat Lincoln's star anchor man to the tape by about four yards. Breaux of Union took the century, the 220 and the broad jump. Baker of Hampton also brought in three first places, which makes a tie between the two men for high point man of the meet. Bob Coles of Hampton, running for his last time in A. C. I. A. a meet. clipped 10 2-5 seconds, off his old two-mile record of 10:26 4-10. His lead over the pack was fully three-fourths of a lan. Cole's old record was set in 1924. A Spectacular Race. The Robert S. Abbott quarter-mile loving cup was taken by, Joe Baldwin of Hampton in one of the spectacular races of the day. Baldwin was boxed in on the start and had to fight for the lead taken by Strickland of Lincoln. The Frank Young National high school one-mile relay cup was won by Manassas, Va. Bordentown was second and Harrison High of Roanoke, third. Frank A. Young donor of the beautiful loving cup, was present at the meet. The Virginia high school quarter-mile relay cup was also taken by Manasas. Two records fell to Bryant of Lincoln, when the old record of 38 ft. 9½ inches was beaten by an inch and one-half in the shot put. The second record fell to Coles in the two-mile run when he clipped 10 2·5 seconds off his old record. The rain interfered, but the spec- lators donned raincoats, put up their umbrellas and stayed to the finish.

At least two of the Commissioners will oppose Mr. Nutter on his ruling in the Montalvo case. When the question of Senator Montalvo's eligibility to play with the Lincoln Giants first came up, the matter was put up to Mr. Nutter for an opinion. He decided in favor of Montalvo and the Lincoln Giants who claimed his services. see how they can retain Mr. Nutter as head of the League and at the same time refuse to abide by his rulings. Considerable bad feeling was worked up among the players of the Bachachar Giants and the Harrisburg Giants during a game in Harrisburg last week. It seems that two of the players got into a fight and other players from each side came to their rescue. Since that time a storm of protest has come from the Western League officials and there has been rumblings among the Commissioners of the Eastern League, especially those teams that fear the Lincolns as contenders for the pennant. Pompez Has Objections. The principal objection to the Lincoln's getting Montalvo's services in the East is Alexander Pompez, whose objection, apparently, is based largely on racial prejudice, although he won't admit as much. Mr. Pompez feels that there are enough American born ball players for the other teams in the League to select from 'without their signing up Cubans. He feels that he should 'have a monopoly on all Cuban players,' and is especially bitter against Julio Rojo, the Cuban catcher, for his willingness to play with teams other than those, composed of Cubans. Mr. Pompez claims he has an agreement with the other Commissioners of his League to the effect that they would not use Cuban players. Edward Bolden, owner and manager of the Hildale team, is also opposed to the Lincoln keeping Montalvo; but for another reason. Mr. Bolden fears the Western League will make reprints on the East by causing, some of their best players to jump the League for better salaries in the West. Incidentally: he fears Lloyd has a championship team in New York this season and is doing all in his power to cripple it. Still he dehies that his opposition in this case is inspired by any selfish motive. Fight Stirs Bad Feeling. But despite the opposition of these two Cimmissioners and a possible third one, it is hard to 'see how they can retain Mr. Nutter as head of the League and at the same time refuse to abide by his rulings. 'Considerable bad feeling was worked up among the players of the Bacharach Giants and the Harrisburg Giants during a game in Harrisburg last week. It seems that two of the players, got into a fight, and other players from each side came to their rescue, so much so that practically the whole of the two teams were engaged in a fisticuff before the police finally stopped the fray. Later that evening Bethwith is alleged to have met one of the members of the Bacharach team and beat him up severely. This matter will also be taken up at the League meeting on Friday and it is, expected that several of the leaders of the fight will draw suspensions, or at least fines.

Johnnie Shepard of the Y gave the noted theatrical star a close race, and almost caught him at the tape. The time was 10 4-5 seconds.

LINCOLN GIANTS RETAIN LEAGUE LEAD BY BEATING BROOKLYN ROYAL GIANTS New York, N. Y.-The Lincoln Giants won two games from the Brooklyn Royal Giants Sunday, and retained their position as leader of the Eastern Colored League. It was the fourth straight double header the Lincolnhes won, this season. In the opening game Sunday, May 15, the Harlem and Bronx team completely, outclassed the Brooklynites, winning by a score of 7-2, but in the other contest it was a fight all the way, the scores being tied when the Lincoln came to bat in the ninth inning. Bill Holland, who had been pitching exceptionally well for the Royals up to the last inning, allowed three men to get on bases, then George Scales broke up the contest with a home run, over right field fence. It was the third, homer of the game—Hudspeth and Mason also getting circuit clouts. Connie Rector opposed his former team-mate, "Pud" Flourney, in the first contest, and the Lincoln pitcher all but scored a shutout. With two men out in the ninth, inning, "Scrapy" Smith came up and scored Arnold with a three base hit and Brooks scored Smith with a single. The Lincoln had no trouble with Flourney's curves, getting fourteen safe bingles in the eight times they were at bat. Scales led the team with three hits in four trips to the plate. In the second contest the Lincoln had the Royals 2-1, until the ninth inning, when "Highpocket" Hudspeth slammed the hall over the fence for a home run. Fortunately, however, the Lincoln's heavy batters came up in their half of the ninth. Singles were made, by George Johnson, Mason and Montalvo, before Scales ended, the game with his homer. Incidently, Manager Lloyd showed off his new pitching ace, young Craig, who opposed Holland in the second contest. Craig pitched like a veteran, holding the visitors to six scattered hits.

It is a picture that will thrill you to the tips of your fingers, a picture that no real American should fail to see. John Chapman Hilder, nationally known as the managing editor of the Elks Magazine, wrote the original story, and Dorothy You adapted it, for the screen. Ralph Ince, one of the most brilliant directors in filmdom, considers this picture his best effort to date. This is high praise from a man of his experience and ability. The central figure, a wealthy Elk, who is typical of the finest principles of the famous organization, is played by Conway Tearle, an ideal selection for the part. Margaret. Morris. gorgeously beautiful, feminine star plays opposite Tearle as a newspaper writer. Frankie Darro has the part of a crippled boy whose health and shattered limb are restored through the kindly efforts of Tearle and his organization. Frankie, because of his wonderful acting in "kid" roles, has taken the place of Jackie Coogan in filmland. His playing of the part of the crippled boy in this picture is par excellence. In the interest of humanity, Tearle has made a vow that he will use all his influence and fortune to stamp out the evils that are undermining the health and character of the people of his town. This vow leads the star through some of the most thrilling sequences of his long and brilliant screen successes. ING MATINEE DANSANT The City Club of New York May 30, 2 to 7 p. m.

Negro students from the various Southern colleges and schools will again, be in our midst seeking work. This information is forecast from a well written letter published in the forum column of a New York daily last week appealing for any type of work for these students, and which hore the signature of the industrial secretary of one of our well-known colored organizations. In its appeal, the latter states, among other pertinent facts, that the money earned by these students during the summer is their sole index as to whether or not they will be able to return to school. To those who are in sympathy with the aspirations and progress of the Negro student, the response to the appeal will be watched with intent interest. First, because, as stated, the return of most of these students to their schools next fall will depend entirely upon the amount of money they will be able to earn during the vacation period. Secondly, the type of work at which they will find employment that will not them money enough to return. Thirdly, the attitude of the large employees towards student labor. The success of their migration North cities absolutely within these contingencies. True, Negro students, working their way through school have always responded employers in the North who were willing to give them employment during the summer months. But times have changed; employers have changed; and, unfortunately for them, the type of students has changed. For example, in years past, the Pullman service was a convenient field for Negro students. The Pullman Company found it advantageous to employ them for the extra summer business; and they in turn found the employment advantageous to their interest. To be sure, a secretary of one of these uplift organizations, who was more literary than practical, once wrote that the students preferred other work to the Pullman service, for tipping had a tendency to lower the dignity of the students. But no one, least of all the ambitious students, paid any attention to that twiddle; for as one fellow aptly said, when his attention was called to the article, "who cares for dignity when a goal is in sight." But the superficial expression, augmented by self importance, had its effect. Today the Pullman management employs few students. And, with all due respect to them, the students themselves are responsible for the condition which brought this about. They made themselves person-negata to the regular porters, undesirable to the company, and obnoxious to the passengers. In the case of themselves and the veteran porters, it was a display of pedantry on one side, and a manifestation of intolerance on the other. Both groups were wrong. Some of these boys thought that because of their smattering of algebra and latin they were privileged to disrespect and hold in contempt men who were old enough to be their fathers. This was practically the attitude which most of the large large group of student porters employed by the company assumed toward the older porters. One of these boys went so far as to write an article to the Pullman Magazine in which the veteran porter was pillowed for his "ignorance" and "inefficiency," a condition, which, even if it were true, was none of the writer's business. On the other hand, many of the older porters were just as intolerant in their attitude as the students were pedantic. The feeling of antagonism became noticeable; so much so that it was apparent to all Pullman officials. Nevertheless, this feeling wasn't unanimous among all the veterans. Some of them are fathers themselves. Last year, when the news began to circulate that the company would not employ any more school boys, a veteran porter wrote to one of the head officials in Chicago, inquiring if this information was authentic, and if it were would the management reconsider the idea for the Pullman service had always been a boon to the Negro boy who was working his way through school. He mentioned to this chronicler at the time what he had done. Several weeks later, he received an answer verifying the report, with the explanation that due to the number of complaints and letters of criticism received, by the management regarding the services of school boys, th company deemed it advisable to discontinue their employment during the vacation season. But the letter did add: that, up to recent years, the company had found the services of its student porters satisfactory. The impression given was that the modern Negro student would not do for the Pullman service. Now, whether or not the policy of exclusion will be enforced this summer, is speculative, so far as this column knows. Perhaps, the appeal for the boys didn't include the Pullman service. But wherever they may be employed, it would be well for their vouchers to advise them to leave pedantry in school, and not display it in their employment. In The P. O. Swing Room By DOF R. MUM. . into the staid monotony of office, routine creep an incident recently that touched deeply upon the bedrock of tragic pathos. A collector was going the rounds of the office canvasing each employee for a contribution towards the fund being raised by the Red Cross to help homeless by the angry waters of the great Mississippi River. From clerk to clerk he moved, obtaining from each a pledge of a subsequent donation, until he reached a section composed, in large part of Negro clerks. The collector approached one of the Negro clerks and solicited a subscription from him. The clerk politely refused his subscription, but he already subscribed to the fund through other sources. The collector moved to another Negro clerk. Again he was met with refusal. This process was repeated until all the Negro clerks had a collection. The collector met with refusal agile each time he received some politic word of explanation, remarkably similar to the others. The collector looked puzzled. Never be sad the Negro clerk down on a list with such uniformity. What could be the reason? The puzzled brow of the collector indicated clearer, than his unframed query, the nature of his wonderment. But no one woultend on to other sections. Now, let us get at the reason for this seemingly strange conduct upon the part of those Negro clerks. Just one day before the above described incident, there appeared in the Metropolitan dailies a account of Lynchings committed upon a young Negro for an alleged charge of raps. This lynching occurred in the State of Arkansas which at that time was the main center of the flood-attack. There is where the poignant tragedy of the whole situation appears. Here, people overwhelmingly here with insurmountable forces of destruction to life and property that could not be stayed by all the herculean efforts of a arrogant man. In this struggle for life itself the consideration of questions of posterity and the immediate question of white supremacy, through the purity of precious taxial stock, itself became of inferior and secondary importance in the struggle against the people could stop their labor upon the task of preventing the possible extinction of all to kill wanonly a poor defenseless Negro! Granting the crime to have been true, as alleged, there was no earthly justification for the deed of gentlemen in the presence of the alledged wicked wizard of God. Perhaps the dregs of bitterness would not be so galling were it not for the fact that the lynching was done by rapists themselves! Apparently, the axiom of honor among thieves does not apply to rapists. For it is a notorious fact that the gettateness of the band and their selves rapists or the descendants of rapists. That was why those Negro clerks refused to subscribe to a fund that is to be administered under the auspices, in some part, of the eminent Dr. Bentham. But I am reliably informed that those clerks did contribute to the flood relief-fund—not to the Red Cross, but to the fund being raised through the efforts of the N. A. A. C. P. They feel that a donation so made, even if made by Arkansas Red Cross workers, would be so stamped with the soul and spirit of Negroes that their-small aid would in some unknown way "carry, through" the morass of prejudice and meet their intent. 6 6 6 is a prescription for Colds, Grippa, Flu, Dungue, Billions Fever and Malaria FLEET ST. CHURCH FURNISHING WORTHY ASPIRANTS FOR ZION CHURCH BISHOPRIC ```markdown ``` Rev. W. C. BROWN FLEET ST. CHURCH FU ASPIRANTS FOR ZION By R. M. B. The 42nd anniversary of Fleet Street First A. M. E. Zion Church of Brooklyn, N. Y., Dr. W. C. Brown, former from, May 15 to Sunday, May 15, so interested us, in the study of the history of the church that we, thought the yenanal public might be interested in what we discovered In 1885, Bishop Singleton T. Jones, whose son, Dr. E. W. Jones, is now bishop holding the W. N. Conference, burgh of Burlingam N. M. E. Zion Church received Fleet Street Church with thirteen members who had withdrawn from Bethel A. M. E. Church. And from these, thirteen members, with their small, but for that day, heavily burdened church, has grown the large building and valuable properties. This church has had many outstanding pastors, the J. W. L. H. Schivaver, W. H. Anderson, W. H. Ferguson, John W. Brown, G. W. Offex, A. H. Hoffee, G. W. Stiff, A. C. Cockee, G. W. Johnson, W. L. Lee, now resident bishop, W. A. Wallale, now a resident bishop; W. C. Brown, pastor-in-charge, a formidable, candidate for the bishopric, and Dr. P. M. Jacebs. Bishopric Timber. These last two men are candidates for the bishopric. And the following is a sketch of their lives and their administrative work in the church, in influence in the community and the A. M. Z. Zion church in general. Dr. F. M. Jacobs, the senior of the two, and his career and activity are as follows: He came into the pastorate in 1888. He was staunch in N. C. twice; Knoxville, Tenn. twice; from Knoxville he came to Brooklyn, N. Y., and was, pastor in charge for 12 years. When old Fleet Street A. M. E. Zion Church collapsed when he was overcrowded for 12 years ago, eleven were lost, but he, Rev. F. M. Jacobs, with many others escaped injury. Eight years he was presiding elder in the N. Y. Conference. During the 10 years the she, has lived in Brooklyn, the attended the medical school in his home, the same, and has practiced medicine in Brooklyn for 26 years. Therefore he can be called the pastor-physician. He paid off the indebendedness of old Fleet Street Later sold it, and bought the prefab building on Bridge street in 1996. Made A General-Officer. In 1918 he was applauded general secretary. In 1920 and 1924 he was elected general secretary. He married the oldest daughter of the Bishop Lonax of Charlotte, N. C. to the née of his characters and bishops of the A. M. E. Zion Church. And he and his wife have raised up a fine family of children. He has been a befactor to Zion Church in grief and joy, in money and prestige, to purchase church and save them from mortgage foreclosures. The records show this to be true as to Zion's first large church in Baltimore; as to the church in Wilmington, Del.; as to the church in Atlantic City, N. J.; and the recent new church in Jersey City. There may be others, and other things that he has done, but this is enough to show that Dr. Jacobs and his friends feel that he should consideration for the office of bishop in the mind of the delegates. Dr. Brown's Career. Dr. W. C. Brown, the pastor-in-charge of Fleet Street A. M. E. Zion Church, has been a very active and useful minister. His education began in his childhood in his home state, North Carolina, where he attended the public schools and the State Normal School at Elizabeth, N. C. Feeling the urge to train others he became a teacher in the Edenton Forman and Industrial School at Edenton, N.C., before entering the ministry; he was given the Creswell, N. C. Here he remained three and a half years, built the church at Creswell, and renovated others, paying off the debts and increasing the membership. He was transferred to the New England Conference and stationed at Portland, Maine, and there he remained four and half years, and had a degree from Brooks' Seminary. He was then appointed pastor-in-charge at Bridgeport, Conn., and here served three years. Improved the property, increased the membership and was popularly accepted as a member of the civic group intercal of the colored people. Later he was appointed pastor at New Haven, Conn., and here he Rev. F. M. JACOBS spent one year, meeting the obligations of a previously newly built church that was heavily burdened with mortgages and other indebtedness. While doing this he carried out a project that required upon his certificate. While in the State of Connecticut he entered Yale University and took the elective courses and special lectures that further prepared him for admission to the Philadelphia and Baltimore Conference, he was stationed at what was called the old John Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church. In this building he found a membership of 206 and during his time he organized and inspired them with his idea of growth and expansion in their church life that they cooperated with him and the backing of the general church, and bought the large and beautiful present church. His new project had his administrative ability for about three years. And, after-meeting all indebtedness and the obligation to the General Church, he, was, appointed to Broklyn, N.-Y., seven years ago, leaving a membership of 630. He has followed a long line of able ministers and here had in his membership two living resident bishops, Bishops Lee and Wallace; and the able general-secretary, Dr. F. M. Jaebs. Of these men the office was assigned. While cooperation he increased the membership, from 500 to 2,200 and has met the claims in every department of the church for the 26 years of his ministry. The kind and helpful aid of his devoted wife, has been his support also during his ministry. Here in his present church debts have been his personal and financial support, his general department and conduct, as well as his training, and culture make him acceptable in civic movements, secret societies, and among his brother ministers and among his associates.
