VIRGINIA ELKS
APPROVE GRAND
LODGE IN N. Y.
Noamok, Va.-Official opposition to the Grand Lodge convention of Elks being held in New York City faded when a delegation of Elks from New York visited the convention here on May 18, and sold the heads of the Order that there, was no fight against the convention by white organizations in New York, and the convention opposed with in the Order be stopped.
The delegation was headed by Dr. Hudson J. Oliver, general secretary of the convention, and the other members were Charles Hanson, secretary; "Blondy" Brown, grand marshal, Arthur Barker, chairman of the convention, and the Brown, chairman of the entertainment committee.
Invited by City Officials,
Dr. Oliver, told Grand Exalted Ruler J. Philippe, Grand Secretary Taurorean E. Bates, and Grand Treasurer James T. Carter, who invited the Grand Lodge was invited to New York by the Mayor the President of the Board of Aldermen the Police Commission and also read the following telegram sent him by New York Lodge No. I, B. P. O. E. (the white Elks) at the time of the Cleveland Convention. The New York Lodge number one B. P. O. Elks, from session held this evening, sends greetings and instructs them to express the hope that your dedication exceeds the 1927 convention of the I. B. P. O. E. of W. for New York, the greatest convention city in the world. WM. T. PHILIPSE, secretary, is pointed out that the visitation and all witnessing had not been withdrawn. Dr. Oliver said the New York delegation felt they were lawfully entitled to the convention and asked support of Virginia in this matter. Virginia Supports New York. Grand Treasurer James T. Carter of Richmond, after bearing Dr. Oliver, opposed against New York was useless and, without foundation, and he was coming to New York and expected the convention to be held. Grand Secretary George Bates stated that the convention was lawfully brought to New York and said no one, not even the trustee, had authority to change it unless the convention found than the ones already offered.
The Virginia Delegation voted unanimously in favor of coming to New York, and representatives there would also come to New York. The grand chaplain, Rev. Mr. Avant of North Carolina, assured Oliver that he too was coming to the conference, bringing the entire North Carolina delegation with him.
Communications have also been received from Georgia, Pennsylvania, and New England, states giving assurance that they would send their delegates to New York in August. Dr. Oliver told newspaper representatives there never has been any real basis for the opposition against the Grand Lodge Convention in New York. The grand exalted ruler would be so foolish as to attempt to change the place for the convention. His only support in such a move, Dr. Oliver, said, comes from "those who have axes to grind and jobs to hold."

Declares That White Grand Lodge End Sent Telegraphic Invitation To Caledar Elks At Cleveland Convention Inviting Grand Lodge To New York For 1927
The New York Grand Lodge, Bencvolent Protective Order of Elks (white Elks of Manhattan) are not opposed to the Improved Bencvolent Protective Order of Elks holding their grand lodge convention in New York, contrary to the given out by W. P. Phillips, secretary of the white order, in an interview with a representative of The New York Age on Friday.
Mr. Phillips says that his lodge-sent a telegraph to Dr. Hudson J. Oliver, at the last convention of the Negro Elks in Cleveland and invited the colored grand lodge to hold its next session in this talk. This action was taken, said the grand secretary, only after a meeting of the entire lodge, at which the matter was discussed and voted on. It would certainly be inconsistent to oppose the convention at this time, the secretary concluded, and so far as he knew, there has been no protest made.
Restrictive Laws Are Dead
When asked about the Grattas' strain New York colored Elks for Mr. Phillips said that these laws enforced in more than ten years, especially in the South, were necessary. Many of them have been neglected or not used to try to control the Aedes who show a special, story from Washington, J. Finley Wilson has said those lae of June or the Convention would
When asked about the-Gratian Law and the injunction which restrains New York colored Elks from using the insignia of the Order, Mr. Phillips said that these laws are both dead and neither had been enforced in more than ten years. These laws, said the secretary, with a muller, are like the old "Blue Law," but the muller is more mature. Many of them have never been enforced. Yet they are still in force. A copy of the Addition shows Secretary Phillips which includes a special story from Washington, stating that Grand Exalted Ruler, J. Finley-Wilson has said these laws must be repealed before the 15th of June or the Convention would be taken elsewhere.
Puzzled by Wilson's Ultimatum

Mr. Phillips expressed himself as being purified with this title, matum, because the legislative session has ended for the present year, and to repeal a law requires the action of the Legislature. He quoted from an address by Hon. Fred Harper of Lynchburg, Va. at the time Mr. Harper was grand-ruled ruler of the white Elk County, to which he was accustomed to cease all litigation against Negro Elks, and said Negroes generally were in need of such an organization as the Elks, and he urged that they be encouraged in their endeavors or at least tolerated.

The officer reached the third floor landing on the encountered a man standing at the door of one of the apartments. Patrolman Booker questioned the man, who proved to be Luther Frazer, and was told that he was in the apartment. When ordered away from the apartment and to cease making the disturbance, Frazer attempted to draw a revolver. Booker rushed him and with his more than 200 pounds of ammunition and had taken the gun away. The volver was of Spanish make and was loaded with six dum, dum bullets.

Many are coming in with only one other person lost everything in the flood. He asks that clothes he given.
Mrs. Saunders announces that the 137th street Y. W. C. A. will hold the relief camp, for distribution apparel for the flood sufferers and will arrange transportation of the same direct to Dr. Clark at the Baton Rouge camp, for distribution to the refugees according to the relief camp. Any such relief as is sent to him will be handed direct to the sufferers.
In his letter, Dr. Clark states that the Red Crows is feeding the people, and clothes will be needed when these people start back to their homes. He urges that such supplies he sent as early as possible. The people will probably have to be in the flooded area provided the waters inside within a reasonable time. Otherwise it might be longer.
A number of packages have been received at the Y. W. C. A. and that quickly as possible direct to Dr. Clark Southern University.

SIDELIGHTS OF THE ACE, M.E.
CONFERENCE.
There were 'many' interesting sidelights to the 105th annual session of the New York Annual Conference of the A. M. E. Church. There were a 'host of men presenting at the church' or 'bishop on the general officer. Among the outstanding candidates are Dr. Spearman, who is a highly trained man, good preacher and able executive; Dr. C. P. Cole, who is a former presiding preacher; Dr. J. Prechner, a preacher in the 'church,' and a candidate at the last General Conference; Dr. M. W. Thornton is one of the best kidnappers ministers in his 'church' and is highly regarded by many; he has many confidential photographs by this conference; Dr. Ghinch been indoored for manager of the Book Concern.
Despite his 26 years, Rt' Rev. Wr. H. Heard was able to act as a facilitative mentally and physically that put many, youngest men, to shame.
There were many men willing to serve the church as delegates to the General Conference. On the first ballot, the candidates had, heen "the power of the church were only twelve real candidates, and the others seemed to be runnigly in order to take strength from real candidates." It seems that the A. M. E. preacher, has all of the elements of a good politician. The only man, a politician who was selected as a b. deli. officer, was runnigly in the campaign for vote. the clergyman who did not agree all the time; on questions; on policy seemingly; forgo all differences; and the lion and the Lamb lay down together.

White: Women. Are. Safe.
He paid a compliment to, the
Coca-Cola executive, declaring that "white men and, and
women mingle with them day, and night and that not a single chiefed
man from this group had been convinced during the last nineteen
years for disrespecting the sacred
personality of the white man, with
their wildness. "Since the
two races, are here, and both are
going to, remain, the only sanguine
thing to do is to decide, how we
can get along with the least friction.
We should recognise in the first
place that each race has its
suitable nature, that everything, nergoid is yelicious,
and everything nordic is virtuous.
There are a lot of had Negroes
and there are also a lot of had
white people. When we decide that
neither group in America postgres
has made one a size toward the
reduction of race friction, which
produces race riots.
Mutual Patience Needed.
"In the working-out of our mis-understandings, a great deal of patience must be exercised by both races. We must be patient, with the Negro who goes around with a chip on his shoulder, all the time; and then, we must be patient, with the white men; who is always looking for an opportunity, to take his place in the patient with those Negroes, who hate all white people and with the white people who despise all colored folk. The man who hates is inferior to the man who loves."
"Let us recognize that each race has a contribution to make to the other race. My race needs the white man's courage, diligently, punctually, humility, acumen and, headly, the head's the Negro's weakness, love forgiving spirit, and emotional inferior as expressed in this folk song."
"How many difficulties that fit the midst of this complex and perplexing race situation that we face in America, and the unfairity and race superiority over to the biologists for about 300 years. There are still a lot of backward races on earth, and the Negro race in America is one of them. In mental development, and industrial progress the Negro people are centrally involved in, but they will require hundred, to prove that the Negro is naturally inferior to anybody."
Give Negro. A Chance.
Give the Negro the same chance for a few centuries that the white man has had for more than 1000 years, and then sit in judgment of the New York race. He has had only sixty years to show what he can do, and the fair minded white people, north and south, declare that, he has wrought miracles of progress during this progress has been made mostly in an environment which was not friendly.

feel the need of a laxative.

Chicago, Ill.—The 'Victory Life Insurance Company has just been informed by Joseph Button, Superintendent of Insurance for the Commonwealth of Virginia, that the company has been granted a license to do business in the Old Dominion. It has also been learned that the Victory Life Insurance Company is the first company owned and operated by Negroes to be granted a license in the state of Virginia since the requirement of a 'paid-up, capital of $200,000 has been effective.'

At the present time, three are companies, owned and operated by Negroes in the State of Virginia, that do business on the legal reserve principal, upon which the company operates. However, it is believed that the Victory Life is taking something new to the citizens of Virginia, in that, the rates of the company are on a non-participating basis, and are so low, as to allow colored, people to buy their life insurance, on the same basis and in many cases, on a more favorable basis as far as premium rates and policy values are concerned than can be had from any other, company based on the same basis, or lower basis, than can be secured from any other companies, operated by any other people.
The rases are based on net costs and the company secures profits for its stockholders and makes up the difference in its surplus by economy in organization, by modern and efficient methods, handling the business of large media firms. The personnel of the officers and directors is as follows: Anthony Overton, President; Richard Hill, jr.; vice president and general counsel; R. H. McGavock, George T. Kersey, George O. Jones, Dr. M.

A Striking Address.
One of the most striking addresses ever delivered at a stockholders' meeting was that of, Rev W. C. Brewn' bawn' pastor, of Fleet Street A. M. E. Zion Church, who said in bart:
"It does not seem that people are taking advantage of, every opportunity offered them." Literature is taking high ground by some of our young, and it seems that we are developing a cultured class of people who understand means that unless we develop big businesses all around us, we shall become a lot of parasites: "We have passed the stage of experiment in business, and what we need to do is to get down to the basis of things, and try to develop businesses so that our people will have some sort of an economy." Negries need to be just as loyal to the Negro business men as they have been to: the minister, the teacher and the doctor, and they ought to show it."

Charge Prejudice Against Fighting Doctor Who Used Knife In Row
Physician who are members of the Norfolk Harlem Medical Association are said to be considerably perturbed by the attacker Dr. Perry W. Cherry, who is placed as a result of the row the doctor had when his "automobile was in collision with another machine at 145th street and 8th avenue on last Christmas Day, during the course of which afteraction Dr. Cheey used a knife on one of his opponents. The guard has been indicted by the grand jury for felonious, assault and is 'out on bail pending trial.
The Harlem, medicos held a meeting on Thursday, seventh May, 19, at the Association of Trade and Commerce, at which he rebalanced setting forth the fact of Dr. Clieney's trouble, and asserting that there were indications of a frame-up, by the white officers and witnesses, and declaring that he had a similar position by white shirts and rowdies who hang out in certain sections of Harlem.
No doctor is safe from such an attack, it was said, and Dr. Cheney was alleged, to have been made a victim, because of his color. According to reports of the meeting, the doctors decided to raise a fund to be used in defending Dr. Cheney, and levied an assessment of US$ each for that purpose. The doctors got in touch with the N. A. A. C. P. to secure Arthur, Garfield Hayes as defense counsel.
Is is reported that Mr. Hayes asked a retainer fee of $500, with an additional charge of $250 for each day's appearance in court. The lawyer, he agreed, the Colored lawyer, be hired to do the work, with Mr. Hayes as an advising consultant. The doctors intend leaving, another, assessment, if necessary, to increase the defense fund.

Cor. Park Ave. New York City
Legal hairsplitting has been invoked to prevent the coming of the Grand Lodge of the Independent Benevolent Protective Order of Elks to New York the coming August, as was decided upon at the grand lodge meeting held in Cleveland last year. As a matter of fact the members of the order and their guests would be as safe in New York as in any other city in the Union. The feeling among the fraternity here is that the national officers should keep faith with the mandate issued by last year's grand lodge and carry out the plans for the convention to be held in this city.
In the light of the expressions made by the head of the white order and the fact that the statute prohibiting the wearing of Elk insignia has been regarded as a dead law never to be enforced, it would seem that the risks possible to a convention held in New York, would be as negligible as those attendant upon such an assemblage in any great city. Compliance with the demand that the so-called Grattan law be repealed before the convention in August is clearly out of the question, as there will be no meeting of the legislature before that time.
The raising of this question as to the possibility of the Elks meeting in New York, holding a parade and wearing the insignia of the order without the fear of legal interference, looks like the raising of a bogie to prevent the order from coming to this city for some particular reason. In whose interest would be the transfer of the convention to some other city at this late day? If that question can be answered, it will probably be found out who is responsible for the legal quibbling as to the safety of holding the meeting in New York, according to the mandate of the last grand lodge. As to the dead laws on the statute books, there are altogether too many of them. The Legislature should repeal all laws that are not enforced, whether they relate to Elks or any other order. Respect for law would be enhanced if the deadwood was cut out and the remainder of the laws strictly enforced. In the meantime, the Elks can come to New York with every assurance of the freedom of the city and a cordial welcome from the Mayor's Committee on Distinguished Visitors, with the possibility of a reception on the City Hall steps and a bow from the Mayor himself, if he is on the job.
EDUCATIONAL MILESTONES
Another milestone in the educational history of North Carolina was marked by the celebration of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the school founded by Mrs. Charlotte Hawkins Brown at Sedalia, a quiet little rural village ten miles east of Greensboro. During this period the work has grown from one teacher one building and fifty-five pupils in 1901 to five buildings, fourteen teachers and two hundred and fifty pupils in 1927. In the name of this school, the Palmer Memorial Institute is perpetuated the memory of the late Mrs. Alice Freeman Palmer of Cambridge Mass who made it possible for Charlotte Hawkins to attend the State Normal School at Salem
Features of the celebration, which lasted four days, were the dedication of two new buildings which cost about $125,000 and the presentation by the trustees of a loving cup to Mrs. Brown. As a further appreciation of her indefatigable and unfallering work during the past twenty-five years, the trustees voted her a year's vacation with full salary, that she might recuperate and gain strength to carry on her work. The value placed upon this work by the State of North Carolina, as well as the friends from the North was attested by the extending of greetings, from the State Department of Education at a meeting at which the speakers were Roy Thomas, State Supervisor of Agricultural Education T R Fount, representing the Guilford County Board of Education, and Dr S G At-
Association has also accepted Polytechn Institute as an affiliated school. The significance of the work that Mrs. Brown has been doing is that it is carried on in a rural district, where such an institution is especially needed. In the great expansion of facilities for Negro education in North Carolina during the past ten years, for which the State has made liberal appropriations, but little has been done for rural schools in the eastern part of the State. This has been largely due to indifference or opposition of the local school authorities. The work done by Palmer Institute and other private schools has been sorely needed to remedy this deficiency. The work of such individual educators as Mrs. Brown goes far to show that the task of educating the Negro in North Carolina is not so hopeless as Paul Green would make it appear in his play, which was awarded the Pulitzer prize.
LIQUOR'S BEST FRIEND.
According to the latest pronouncement of Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia University, the Eighteenth Amendment is the best friend the liquor traffic ever had. So far as increasing the profits of the business and making it a monopoly for unscrupulous bootleggers and booze vendors who are not particular as to the quality of the goods they sell, that is probably true. Dr. Butler is active in the fight against prohibition and insisted in a recent interview that it is progressing splendidly. He pointed to the majority vote against it in a poll of the members of the Women's National Republican Club, the fact that the doctors are almost unanimously against it and the change in the Anti-Saloon League's arguments as evidence of that fact.
Another development of the Prohibition enforcement campaign was the turning down of Roy Haynes as acting Prohibition Commissioner and the appointment of Dr J. M. Doran, a veteran official of the Bureau of Internal Revenue, as Commissioner While Mr. Haynes was an earnest and effective advocate of Prohibition in the field, he was not so efficient as an executive. The substitution of the head of the chemical division, to take charge of prohibition enforcement, is at any rate an appropriate designation. It was also announced that General Andrews would be succeeded August 1 in the post of Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, in charge of prohibition enforcement, by Seymour Lowman, former Lieutenant Governor of New York State. If this change should put the enforcement of prohibition in the charge of New York men who know something about the people and the territory in which they are working, enforcement might be made more effective.
At a meeting in Brooklyn recently Representative Hamilton Fish was credited with saying that it was impossible to repeal the Eighteenth Amendment and the only thing that could be done about it was to modify the Volstead Act so as to permit the sale of beer in bottles for home consumption. On the other hand, Assemblyman Cuvillier of New York holds that if four more states should petition for a Constitutional Convention, in addition to the twenty-eight that have made such a request during the past twenty-five years, the whole question of prohibition could be disposed of and the Constitution practically re-written
It would seem that many doctors prescribe different remedies for the ills that prohibition has brought upon the country. In the meantime the only people contented with the law appear to be the bootleggers and the Anti Saloon leaguers. And an unfeeling government proposes to make the bootleggers pay an income tax on their profits.
RACE SUPREMACY IN LYNCHING
The recent burning of the lifeless body of a Negro by a mob of whites in the center of the Negro section of Little Rock, has elicited some strong expressions of condemnation from the press of both races all over the country. peculiar interest attaches to the views expressed by the newspapers of Little Rock the capital of Arkansas, which was the scene of this barbarous exhibition. The Arkansas Survey a Negro weekly headed its editorial review of the tragedy as follows "Law and Decency Lie Prostrate at the Hands of the Mob in Little Rock"
This uncompromising summary of the situation was followed by an account of the burning at a funeral pyre directed at the most outstanding point of Negro civic commercial and religious activity. It was characterized as "the effort of an unreasoning mob to terrify humiliate a race of people who had been guilty of no crime but that they were the unfortunate members of a race of which one of its numbers had committed a most
complained by a designated Negro constable of the city and the lynching itself did not take place in the city. The Survey asked
What did it mean—the question has been asked by hundreds—it meant to humiliate and terrorize hundreds of peaceable, industrious, God-fearing citizens who were guilty of no crime but that of being members of the race to which the DEMENTED man belonged. At the intersection of Ninth and Broadway stand big and beautiful Bethel A M. E. church and the imposing edifices of the National and State buildings of the Mosaic Templars of America which buildings were the slight witnesses of this most illegitimate outrage on a defenseless people. Here in these same buildings, monuments to the pride of the Negro in its own achievements; bonds of faith in the opposing words fallen from the lips of white friends where mutual cooperation had been pledged in all things looking to a bigger, and a greater commonwealth, here where loyal colored men and women had gathered and when the stalking its enmacing shadow over the Democracy of the world—the financial strength of the race in Little Rock and its manhood were freely offered; when the Mosaic Templars of America made the greatest single contribution of money by any organization that Democracy should not perish from the face of the earth. In this same building, these same people, trapped like so many rats in a cage, had to sit by and see roasted the flesh of a human being and smell the odor of his slowly consuming carcass and see the steps of their beloved church converted into a grand stand and orator's roostum of those who would behold the oarrage and harangue the crowd.
The white papers said that during this org that the police force were safely concentrated at the city had and that four members of the National Guard were sent down to protect them. We have and faith in Little Rock's dominant citizenship, we have had faith in the guardians of the peace of the city we did not believe that such a thing could happen, it was a delusion it did happen. But there is still a ray of light in recent action of the outstanding citizens be carried to the end. We would be just as wrong in believing that the action of the rabble who formed the mob and burnt the crazy Negro was representative of the attitude of the best whites as they would be to hold us responsible for the acts of a degenerate Negro. We deplore it when committed by one of our race, by the individual and not the whole race should be believe responsible. We right thking white people abiding that all man, has been fulled into the belief that his race like him, this is the mistake his race once makes possible such blots as have been placed against the good city of the city. It is too late to take out insurance after the house has been burned, but better late than never is a pretty good adage to be applied in this present case, we believed this spells the death knell of the mob inclined.
We must not become panic stricken or lose our grip, since our advent on these shores we have faced every untoward condition that mortal man can face. We have stood the horrors of the slaveship; we have survived hundreds of years of servile slaves' went, through the horrors of the reconstruction period; we have lived through laws of proscription and through it all we have assimilated in stature and grown in favor both with God and man and this is the spirit we still breathe.
Turning from this unfinching facing of a horrible situation, let us see how the white newspapers met the responsibility devolving on them as exponents of modern civilization. The Arkansas Democrat bluntly told the truth by saying "The law has been put to the supreme test in Little Rock and found wanting." Those with whom we trust the safety of our firesides have been called in an hour of desperate need only to be found putfully conspicuous by their absence." After this scathing denunciation of official activity, the Democrat demanded an immediate investigation, with the reminder that "the grand jury has the power to indict. The Governor and the Circuit court have the power to remove." Those powers should be used impartially unsparingly and immediately.
The Arkansas Gazette also admitted that the impotence of city and county peace officers left mob free to work its will while Little Rock was delivered over to anarchy. It declared unreservedly that the city and county must have in places of authority men who are fearless and determind, who can always defend the community against excess and lawlessness and uphold peace and order.
The Little Rock Daily News was more apologetic toward the mob in its attitude claiming that the crime committed constituted "two distinct blows at white supremacy" and that the mob members "chose that weapon that man has ever commanded in defense of his home, on his God-given position—death to the invader." After this virtual justification of mob murder the News paid lip service to law and order by protesting that such demonstrations threaten the courts and all that they guard. With the belated and astonishing admission that we have seen our friends and neighbors become brutes again for one night, the News demanded the right to live as man has learned to live "even though it be necessary to call out the entire armed forces of the United States." This confusion of argument goes to show that the human holocaust must have sucked even such a staunch upholder of white supremacy as this Little Rock editor. A racial supremacy that must be maintained by such disgusting and harbarous methods as those tolerated at Little Rock in a reproach to the State and the Nation.
The Negro weekly and the three white dailies of Little Rock have shed a measure of illumination upon the underlying causes of such atrocities as the burning of human beings because they are black
THE AGE READERS' FORUM
It remains to be seen whether the corrective measures advocated by the two more enlightened white editors are adopted. Despite the heroic spirit of the utterances in the Negro weekly, we are of the opinion that migration from Arkansas will feel a new impetus. It is significant that the associate editor of the Survey, who wrote the article concerning the lynching was forced to flee the city to escape a mob which threatened his life.
THE DOCTOR'S RESPONSIBILITY.
The responsibility of the physician for the issues of life and death is exceptionally great and calls for the utmost degree of experience and skill in diagnosing and treating all forms of disease. Especially is this true in the branches of surgery, where modern tendency is to advise and often insist upon immediate operation, which the course of events may prove to have been unnecessary and attended with greater risk to the patient than medical treatment. The careful physician will rarely advise a major operation without a period of observation and treatment and consultation with other medical authorities, unless the emergency appears to be so grave as to demand immediate action.
One of the greatest dangers that confronts hospital cases is this too ready resort to the use of the surgeon's knife, without sufficient time being allowed to fully prepare the patient for the ordeal, or at least to determine its immed-
Ford Asks Randolph For Money Accounting
Editor of The New York Age
How long will Mr Randolph continue to buffalo the porters and hang the dollar sign on them. The first announcement from "The Messenger" was that we were going before the Board of Meditation last December. The month of January was then selected then February passed, and March was positively the month when we would appear before the Board. It was postponed until April, and finally the announcement came that we would appear before the Board in May because a member of the Board of Meditation called at The Messenger's office and probably listened to Randolph's bunk
The next announcement will probably be that we will meet the June July, and then sweet September. And the sale of the Messenger continues and the included funds pay the paper. According to Randolph's statement $1 per cent on 6,000 porters are members membership fees $30,000 months dues $75,000 total $105,000 collected up to date and still coming in strong. Why don't the tender an accounting of what they did with this money? and what is getting it?
Publish a financial statement and don't forget to include the drawing rooms on the Twentieth Century Limited and the Broadway Limited between New York and Chicago where they charge an extra rate of $12. That's where the porters money is going to provide care comfort luxuries and a fat living for the representatives.
We have heard of the Committee of 100 functioning and we wonder if they will lend their moral and financial support to an organization that carries at its mashead "The Messenger." They will ask where the editor was during the war, and they will bind that he was a conscientious objector.
They read the threat love stories debasing the morals of the members of their organization whose greatest tribute is that the mother-wives and daughters of the great American people who travel to their ears are entrusted to their care. They will read in The Messenger" files no encouragement to protect the sanctity of the home or origins of woman (see September issue page 271). The will pass and wonder at their holiness and patriotism and their contempt of religion. They call the Church where the porters and the porters families congregate "An emotional barnroom (see May issue page 144). They denounce the Pullman Porte .

into necessity. This undue haste and apparent carelessness in the treatment of hospital cases has done much to inspire and maintain the popular dread of being taken to such institutions, although the advantages of constant medical supervision and trained nursing should be urged in their favor.
The responsibility of the physician who advises an operation is great, and it should be exercised with careful judgment and full consideration of all the circumstances of the case. The patient should not be used merely to demonstrate the carrying out of some pet theory which may be proved in his case but should be treated on his individual merits as a human being entitled to the best treatment that science can afford for his particular malady. The doctor who has at heart the true dignity of his profession will feel his duty as a healer of humanity is too great a charge to be trifled with by careless or indifferent treatment of any case committed to his care. He will use the surgeon's knife only after careful observation and consultation has justified that resort and the patient has been fully prepared for such treatment.
The doctor's responsibility for the proper handling of all cases coming to him is not to be lightly estimated. It demands the most serpulous care and good judgment to avoid preventable mistakes entailing grave results for the patient and an unenviable reputation for the careless practitioner

HEALTH IS HERE

Do You Sleep Enough?
Ask yourself the question: How can you answer it alone? If you are at least eight hours sleep every night, that is the amount required by the average adult. If essential to your health, it is often people who can work all day and then up the greater part with night reading, including a time you may be able to stand the war. But certain times are much for you. The most important thing is to keep the general temperature high. You are in general good health, you will be better able to resist disease. It is particularly important in the good health of children, resting quite often with the atherosclerotic growth of the heart in the early years. But you will all succumb to the disease because many of our rests keep us in good health.

Under the heading. Efficient of the Help Needed the Birmingham Rebarter directed attention to a phase of economic progress which should not be neglected It said.
With the growth and expansion of race business in Birmingham there is the problem of competent office help looming, not in the distance, but now. The practical certainty for the requirement of efficient help in the progress of a growing city should induce young people to get both training and experience along this line.
Efficient clinical and secretarial help in the modern office is as essential for the success and increase of business as good managerial ability.
The details of a business need always to be at the finger tips of intelligent and efficient clerical service. Some of the large numbers of young people coming out of high school at the close of each semester should turn their attention to clerical training and business administration.
The demand might not be apparent to them but the certainty of increased business ventures among members of the race makes favorable opportunities in this field.
This is in line with the argument advanced by the Age that business development among the race would tend to increase opportunities for employment of our youth. The present duty is to be prepared for such opportunities.

The battle is the Lord's were the principal words of the Bible reference found at 2 Samuel 17-47. The Sunday afternoon musical at the Lycme at four o'clock was something out of the ordinary.

And then shall appear the sign of the Son of Man heave and then shall all the truth to the earth and mourn and they shall be the Son of Man heave and in the cloud of heaven with power and great glory. Wash 21 29 10. Theme. The Time of Man and Humanity. The Time of Man and Humanity. Pastor Bolden repens with emphasis the declaration that the time ago that the prophecies of our Lord Jesus the Emmanuel are a important to the gospel of his man service that has been developed from His teachings and actions. He believes that greater attention should be given to His prophecies for these declare things and conditions that are to be manifested relative to Him and His Kingdom that is to the off and eternal. And that the off and these things and conditions are to the people and among the peoples of the earth. As regards these statements that are found in the verses that we have quoted while to some think the Emmanuel of our Lord the Emmanuel has been partially fulfilled in the work of the Holy Spirit.
It said that New York City is the greatest in all the world and its greatest is due to the fact that the wealth industrial and philanthropic and religious all at phtianthic and religious movements are established and are the tutors of the earth.

purise wealth, place and power, and
though we may gain them, yet there
is no complete joy. But Jesus by
His coming life, death and resurrection, has become the world's hope.
Several persons joined the church. Dr. Morris was introduced to the
congregation by the Rev. James A
Manning, an old boyhood friend.
Both are from Virginia.
At the evening hour, "the new pastor," Dr. Gerr. filled the pulpit. He gave a heart to heart talk on his conception of the qualification titles and life of a minister. He based his remarks on Psalms 113. "For thou art my rock and fortress; there fore for thy name's sake lead me to guide me." Prior to bus ser service, he occasion to as that he appreciated upon him honor that has been bestowed upon him, returned to the church for an other year. He came in a spirit of humility and the burden of his heart that all would have an ear for God's voice and obey
In speaking of the qualifications for ministers Dr Tyler made the point that sometime some ministers like sight of God for a time in their attiring for earthly honors, place and power, and let their prejudices and ambition get the best of them. The big thing is to let Jesus lead them also stated that ministers must have qualifications of mind, spirit and life. The key is the complete real religious leaders. He concluded that these things had always been his conception of a minister of the gospel, and always would be, and if he ever failed he would desire that this or any other organization seek an other pastor. Dr Tyler thanked the officers and members for their great cooperation in helping him develop and put over a real constructive program for the church. He also took occasion to compliment the choir, of which Mrs Viney Kearney Myers, as organ-director for the splendid choir, which they rendered several selections at Bethel Church, Manhattan at the annual conference on May 22.
Now that Dr. Tieler is back for another year the officers are planning to vigorously procedure to a successful conclusion the program that they outlined several months ago. It in includes community work, greater interest in the present membership, greater interest in the young people, a jigger Bridge Street along spiritual, numerical and social lines.

The *church* at Rochester, N Y was built at a cost of $25,000 and paid for a parsonage and another house and lot were also purchased during Dr. Brown pastorate. 811, D. Brown was assigned to the parsonage Mother A M E Zon Church then located W 89th street, New York City. In 1914 the church edifice at 151-3 West 136 street was purchased Improvements were made Later other property on 130th street was purchased for a Brotherhood House and a parsonage Other purchasers of land and property were made until the total invested was over $100,000. The Mother Zon Church, 140-6 West 136 street New York 20.1925 is estimated that the investment of this edifice is more than $450,000.
Rev J W Brown's parents saw to it that he attended the schools and the church of his community in his childhood days, thereby training his young mind so that it would respond to the best environment as he grew and developed in youth and manhood. The gentleman bears trust in the scholarship achievement of the young man and is treated in the public schools of his native state and his 25 years of active and successful ministry.
While in the other two fields of his ministry he advanced the cause of the A.M.F. Zion Church here in the city of New York as pastor of the Mother, A.M.F. Church for 14 years his physical accomplishment in the building of the present large as a church builder ranking among those who have a right claim first place in the concession. As a man who can argue interest among the peoples of his community and accuse much cooperation from other demonstrations in developing his institution, and as a man and good yellow, who can create societies moral and civil structures and cult them in his building and religious enterprise, we think that he meets consideration in the birthen in his denomination.
Fith the support given him by the general church by the New York Annall conference by the community of Holmes regardless of race, race or color and by the large and ever increasing faithful and liberal memorial Marian Zion Church. Rev. Robert W. Brown stands out as a pastor and administration of large church afairs worthy of the high office to which he aspires. His general department and religious tenor and his love for our Lord Jesus Christ will command him to the breath. His loyal wife has given him unstimulated support in his great work.

But satisfactory and encouraging as this is it is but an imperfect measure of D Washington's work and a "movement. The education and annual turning out of two of three hundred young men and women for lives useful to themselves and their families to of course a most commandable and helpful work but that was only one part of what he did and enough to do.

Heavy Hitting Gives Harrisburg Dual Win Over Lincoln Giants
Hitting the ball to all parts of the park, the Harrisburg Giants defeated the Lincoln Giants two games in their first appearance at the Protecory Oval this season, Sunday, May 24. The Pennsylvania team made a total of thirty safe binges in the two games and won by scores of 94 and 13-5. The loss of Montalvo the big cannon outfielder, seemed to have caused the local team to go into a batting bump, except for George Johnson, Mason and Scales, the Lincolners were way off their form at the bat. In the first game Carter, pitching for Harrisburg, had the entire team at his mercy, allowing but 4 hits for the game, one being a home run by Johnson, the Lincoln centerfielder.
While at bat in the eighth inning Carter was hit with a pitched ball by Dudley and so badly injured, he had to be carried from the field. Because, of the one-sidedness of the game up to this point, it was called by agreement. Since the Lincoln did not get a bat in the eighth inning, the score was counted from the seventh, and this prevented two home runs—one by Beckwouth and the other by "Fats" Jenkins together with a three base hit by Oscar Charleston to fatten the batting average of these players. Gisentainer was on the mound for the Lincoln and was relieved by Dudley if the fifth inning. Neither was able to check the heavy hitting Smiths.
The home team read the visitors in the second game until the seventh inning, when Charleston's two bagger and a sacrifice fly by Perez gave them three runs. Rube Chambers was rushed in to relieve Craig in the next inning and stop the scor ing but he was so wild Henderson had to take his place for the final inning.
Four of the Lincoln's five runs came in the first inning when Scales hit a home run with three men on the bags

Get fluttered, girls or at least flutterers.
Adolphe Menton is always on the hunt for leading women and rumors has it that he leans toward unknown.
The dehonair star is haunting the music halls the variety theatres and even the cabaret with his eye on feminine pulchritude that will fit the leading feminine roles of the pictures that he is going to make in the future.
The nonchant Menton is no mean picker as any one who saw Suzanne Fleming for instance as Alice Iovese's daughter in "The Ace of Cads" will testify.
Merion saw Susan in the front row of the Follies during his New York outfit while he was on a scouting expedition with Luther Reed his director for some decorative talent for the Michael Aaron story. Susanna was invited to a screen test with the result that she be aame a full-fledged film personality over night. The same thing is likely to happen again to look your prettiest girls' you may never know when the keen eye Menou may be appealing you with the view of boosting you to fame and fortune.
While Virginia Valle who plays opposite Merion in the latest picture Evening Clothes is not precisely a newcomer to Paramount picture having played as Thomas Meghan leading woman in The Confidence Man and The Man Who Found Himself she's another testimonial to Menou's unearning arc on beam.

Lincoln Giants To Relinquish Montalvo
By Lloyd P. Thompson.
Whether or not the much mooted question of where Montalvo, the Cuadran outfielder, shall play has been set tied, will be definitely known within a fortnight or so, in which time the presiding officers of the two leagues will confer. In the meantime, Jim heenan, owner of the Lincoln Giants has acquiesced to the wishes of his fellow commissioners in the heat and will leave Montalvo out of the Lincoln Giants lineup. Such was the outcome of the meeting of the commissioners of the Eastern Colored League, held in Atlantic City.
Keenan Cites Law.
Claiming that he has done nothing to strain the relations between the two leagues and that he acted within his own rights in signing the Cuban player, Jim Keenan cites a paragraph of Article 3 in the Joint Agreement adopted by the two leagues in Chicago, 1924.
Article No. 3 "No player who has played with a club in either league for a season or part of a season shall be employed or permitted to play with a club in the same or other league during the season immediately following without a proper release from the club last employing him."
No Baseball War Courted by East
President Ike Nutter of the Eastern League maintains that his ruling on the case was proper according to the agreement effected between two leagues, but also feels that harmonic relations between the leagues is absolutely essential to further the development of the game among race clubs. In justice to the player Monta'o, who was kept out of baseball the entire season of 1926, President Nutter's contention is that the West must give him employment or declare him a free agent

His solitude and striking at times seemed perfect. Much credit is due him because of the fact that he played in the singles and doubles throughout the tournament. Although he lost in the singles finals, he and his partner won a brilliant victory over St. Paul's raquet swings. Thus Virginia Seminary gained a leg on the trophy for the doubles that was held by the Shaun University team composed of Armstrong and Howell. Davis of Washington well known as a net star in the circles in which the renowned Tallis Holmes fits. His huge size is in no way a hindrance in getting about the court.
Another team of the tournament that failed to reach the final but made a comeback in worth mention is Hewell. She has not made it to the table so far but she is able to play the game well. Hewell played on the ground in 2013 and 2014. Michael won a good light on the preliminary. Hewell was uninterested and lost the second of the match to Hewell.
The schools represented in the
tournament were Shaw University,

Maude Bowser, Soprano In Montclair Recital
Maude Pearman Bowers, soprano, a young singer of promise was presented to an appreciative audience at Humptonsike at Tennity P E Church, North Willow street, Montclair, N.J. by the Willing Writers and Sunshine Clubs of atlantic church, of which the Rev George M Plakett is teacher on Thursday evening May 19. It was a joint retreat with Iowand Randall, temer of Betterson N.J. also appears. This young woman has a number of things in her favor—a good young churn, a manner and physical attractiveness. She is young and seems to be ambitious and willing to work Married at an early age, she was widowed a year ago. During her brief married life she lived in Boston and studied singing under one of Dr Hubbard's assistants, a teacher with whom Roland Haas had formerly worked. Returning to Montclair after her bereavement, she recently began studying with Wilson Lamb in his studio.
Her voice is lyric in quality but there are intonations and colorations that indicate a change into the dramatic classification with maturity and further development. A dark breath control is evident but the will probably be remedied under the direction of her present teachers, as will a serene slackness in posture while on the stage. Mrs Bowser sang four groups in including songs by Spink, Edward Hawley, Slater, Earle and Penn, with spirituals by Burleigh Clay Smith's Sorter mrs. joey" and Teschemacha "Where my caravan has rested were added numbers.

Heard By New Yorkers
For the second time, a New York audience of lovers of music for the philatotheore had the privilege of hearing Cecil Cohen of Howard University Music Department, Washington, May, a reevaluation program, the first time a year ago, the second time on Sunday afternoon, May 22, both at Grace Congregational Church, the Rev. A C. Garner, pastor Last Sunday's concert was sponsored by Hall Johnson, composer and violinist, director of the Hall Johnson Singers.
Mr. Cohen's program was at a texture slightly more dichotomy than might have been expected, but it gave him an opportunity for the exhibition of rare digital dexterity and temperamental catholicity.
Chopin was prominently to the Tore, with no less than six compositions—three preludes, two studies and a moture. Delicacy of utterance, with sharp and clear tonal effects, characterized the Chopin numbers Schumann's "End of the Song" and "Soaring" preceded the Chopin group, and Brahms was represented in a Gavotte in A Major (arranged by Gluck) and a Ballade in G Minor Theme and Variations in G. Sharp Minor and Improving in F Minor gave Faure an equal representation with Schumann and Brahms the other composers being Gluck Saint Saens, Debussy, Sergei Rachmaninov (with Two Poems, Almenir-Godowsky) and Tarantelli.
Notwithstanding the pianist's deft skill in creating dynamic contrasts through alternating velocities and tempos, there was a variety of character in the compositions given that generated an atmosphere of closing奏
Mr. Cohen will probably visit New York again and perhaps he may take his rather affeld giving a more comprehensive exhibition of his undoubted pianistic ability. An enthusiastic and appreciative audience gave him a splendid reception making up in volume of applause what was lacking in number of individuals.
At 4 p.m. Sunday afternoon, May 22, the Oliver Circle of Rush Memorial A M F Zion Church, Mrs Lillian Galloway Stakeman, president presented a group of musicians from the New Amsterdam Museum Association as a symphony orchestra under direction of Charles Oliver Simms with Miss Olive P Hopkins soprano solist of Mt Oliver Baptist Church chorus as guest artist in a concert of Symphonic Music Miss Hopkins was accompanied in one of her numbers by the full orchestra and in others by L F Dyer organist of Mt Quist Church Her programmed numbers were "Well dog thou know I mother" from a cavalier Rusticana and Ardura I backing ("The Kiss").
Lor Lester played Reddismoke (The Night-gale) by Donna and Jesse Young volume 18.
The orchestral offerings were in excellent demand by Leibgruss Amadee Damon by Chamnadee Diphrese costray by Offenbach Antra Dance from Greig Deer Gorm Sue Wikersky Rider N and the March of the Priests in Mendelssohn's Altha. The most composing the orchestral group displayed individual ability of considerable measure, but there was evidence at a lack of ensemble smoothness. This probably would be remedied by more consistent and earnest rehearsal periods. The pastor, Rev George M Oliver, thanked the conductor and players, and Mrs Hopkinson for their control, but towards the musical life of the church and Mrs Stakemann on their behalf he extended the services to audience and audience.

THINGS SEEN, HEARD AND DONE AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYES
By JAMES H HOGAN8
NO SO LONG AGO I WAS AN INTERESTING TWO PULLMAN PORTERS REGARDING GRAACE. ONE OF THE DEBATERS COULD NOT PROGRESSED TO THAT POINT AFTER THE ESThetic IN ART. THE OLD MAN CALLS WHETHER OR NOT THE DRAWED. BUT AFTER ATTENDING THE OPENING THE ATHAMBRA THEATRO ON MONDAY, INDRA DRAMA AS ONE OF THE ARTS WAS HARLEM, ARE NOT AS VET PREPARED. THE LAST OBSERVATION IS NOT IN AORDS AND ACTresses. AS A MATTER OF OPPORTUNITY AND SUPPORT GIVEN PLAY, IN DRAMATIC ACTING WILL BE ADVANTAGES UNDER WHICH THEY LIE DEMINENT A SERIOUS PHASE OF NEGRO WHICH THEY DO ACT. WHAT WITH WARD ANY EFFORT ON THE PART OF NEGRO OR DEPRAVITY, AND THE INABILITY COME WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT THESE A COMBINED NEGRO ACTORS HAVE TO COME NO EXCEPTION TO THE RULE.
Regarding the play, "Goat All" In the dramatic critic, it may lack emotional play. The players in these are features of the play which bring this to those who are better matric criticism. To me, the players especially Miss Evelyn Fell and appear to me, a novice, that the acting of the final scene Hot sensation I would have enjoyed the "goats" in the audience.
Goats is not a polite appellation being, but figuratively speaking. Last Monday night reminded one way through a strange field. He gives of a young Negro woman to which fate and sordid environment This remaining but of character, he who had given her the first concordatic features of the story. But none, her tribulations were nothing They laughed from the beginning.
They laughed at "Lucy Belle" news that "Jeff Bisbe, a former town, they laughed when "Jeff leave her child and home and when "Sam Read" the man scene and there followed a left and left and they burst into fists from prison, where he had been seized the final act that the unfurious of a soul gouged beyond human mouth in her misery. They even laughed at rage at learning that she is away ends her troubles by course I do not mean to audience see only humor and not stretching. But I do say that this picture.
Ten or so years ago when I gave dramatic plays in the Negro prevailed. But I had labored and would make a difference in her Harlem regarding part of her movement along this one. Apparently, a rightful audience at a smiled but them are unbearable.
The only consistent conclusion unready for the art of drama in Nambra Theatres and see for yourself.
THE SOON, BUT NOT THE Conjecture of a Negro Artist
was an interested listener to letters regarding the cultural debaters contended that that point in culture where art. The other maintained that not the drama was one of the opening performances on Monday evening of the arts which Negroes, as yet prepared to appreciation is not intended as a display. As a matter of fact, were not given players of the whirling would be unlimited which they labor whenever case of Negro life, it is little. What with the coolness of part of Negroes to present the inability of the average about these are discouraging we have to contend. Monte the rule.
"Goat Alley it may be, it may lack all the essential players in it may be ill-trained the play which I refrain from who are better conversant with the players were extra Evelyn Filas as, Lucy Belle, that there was too vacacene. However this is one have enjoyed the entire play influence.
Public appulation to employ it only speaking, the audience reminded one of a herd of field. Here was a play to woman to retain the lair environment had all but character, held together by the first conception of loveliness. But to the audience were nothing more than a beginning to the ending of Lucy Belle when she posed a former amour and slay when "Jeff" found her and home and go with the man she loves followed a murderous but into its of hilarity, when had been sent for stabbing the unfortunate woman with beyond human endurance. They even laughed when that she is the mother of troubles by choking her to mean to imply that literate and the negroes in the play so say the majority ofago when he laughed to the Negroes of Harlem labored under the delusion face in the mental character of his character. Our apparent but at drama, to
a son upon to reach the theater drama. If this do free for yourself that is
MAYBE SOON, BUT NOT YET (A Perspective of a Negro Audience)
No, so long ago I was an interested listener to a lively debate between two Pullman partners regarding the cultural progress of the Negro race. One of the debaters contended that Negroes, as a whole, had not progressed to that point in culture where they could appreciate the esthetic in art. The other maintained that they had not recall whether or not the drama was one of the subjects discussed. But after attending the opening performance of Goor Alley at the Ahambra Theatre on Monday evening of last week I herewith made drama as one of the arts which Negroes, as a group espouse, Harlem, are not as yet prepared to appreciate.
The last observation is not intended as a disparagement of Negro actors and actresses. As a matter of fact, were they given the same opportunity and support given players of the white race, their possessions in dramatic acting would be unlimited. Still considering the advantages under which they labor whenever an attempt is made to denote a serious phase of Negro life, it is little short of wonderful success they do act. What with the coolness of white audiences to ward any effort on the part of Negroes to present anything but comedy or deprivacy, and the inability of the average Negro audience to care what it is all about these are discouraging phases with which ambitious Negro actors have to contend. Monday nights audience has no exception to the rule.
Regarding the play, "Goat Alley" it may be structurally weak in the dramatic critic, it may lack all the essentials necessary to an emotional play. The players in it may be all-suited to their parts; there are features of the play which I retrain from commenting on, raising this to those who are better conversant with the art of dramatic criticism. To me, the players were extremely good in their parts especially Miss Evelyn Filas as "Lucky Belle". Although, it did appear to me, a novice, that there was too minor improvement in the acting of the final scene. However this is only an incidental objection. I would have enjoyed the entire play had it not been for the "goats" in the audience.
Goats is not a politic appellation to employ in referring to human beings, but, figuratively speaking, the audience at the Alhambra on last Monday night reminded one of a herd of goats, bleating their way through a strange field. Here was a play depicting the struggles of a young Negro woman to retain the last but of self respect which fate and sordid environment had all but stripped from her. This remaining but of character, held together by love for the man who had given her the first conception of loyalty furnished the dramatic features of the story. But to the audience with few exceptions, her triplations were nothing more than a series of comedies. They laughed from the beginning to the ending of the tragedy.
They laughed at "Lucy Belle when she portrayed panic at the news that "Jeff Bisbe, a former amour and slave driver was back in town, they laughed when "Jeff" found her and demanded that she leave her child and home and go with him they laughed when "Sam Reed" the man she loves happened on the scene and there followed a murderous battle between him and left and they burst into fist of hilarity, when Sam returned to her from prison, where he had been sent for stabbing "Jeffs". It is in this scene the final act that the unfortunate woman portrays the desperation of a soul goaded beyond human endurance let the audience saw much in her misery. They even laughed when "Sam" her lover in a list of rage at learning that she is the mother of a child born while he is away ends her troubles by choking her to death.
Of course I do not mean to imply that literally every one in the audience saw only humor and the tragedy of the play That would be stretching. But I do say that the majority of those present drew his picture
Ten or so years ago when he left to Theatre undertook a dramatic play in the Negroes of Harlem the same conditions prevailed. But I had labored under the delusion that a half-dead would make a difference in the mental characteristics of the masses in Harlem regarding playwright character. Unfortunately no improvement along this one apparent. Our people may make a lightful audience at a smed but at drama, the ark and the men are unbearable.
The only consistent condition to reach is that as a race we are unready for the art of drama. It there doubted good by nambra Theatre and see for yourself that is the praise is a fun nine.

to rural Georgia. Georgia has hundreds of men old in life, holding degrees but I have not been able to find as many as six of these living in Georgia who hold degrees in Agriculture or allied sciences.
The late Henry Wallace, member of the American Country Life Commission, in passing through New England and seeing the farms in the fertile Connecticut valley, operated by foreign people, said, "In fifty years it will be as difficult to find the proverbial hen's teeth. The race who tills the soil will eventually own the soil the race who leaves the soil will eventually perish."
Advantages of Farm Life
History is filled with proofs of the face that when people lose their contact with the soil they lose their place in civilization. We must as a race provide trained leaders in every phase of our Agricultural life who will make it possible for our people to know the How and the Why in Agriculture. We must hold the land that we now have and get possession of more of the fertile lands of this country. We cannot expect our rural communities to move forward if the brightest and brainsiest of our race leave this big job of leadership to the men and women who have had a chance.
The Georgia State Industrial College along with Hampton Institute and other institutions that seek to provide a leadership in an culture and country life, must so to it that a large and growing number of young men and women get a true vision of service that will carry them back to the rural communities that they may greet the necessary leadership to the great masses of our people. My people perish because they have no vision. It is my highest ambition that I may in some way inspire the thousands of boys and girls in Georgia and the south, to prepare themselves for this great mission.

Two recent occurrences illustrate a great moral teaching that applies nowhere more relevant than in the post office. Title teaching is that honesty is the best policy - cannot imagine a store maintaining feeling than that with which one may touch another man- or group of men, show workers or what not - squarely in the eye unaffected - that some avenger might suddenly confront him with an accusation of indemnable guilt of stealing. And nowhere is the aspect of such an accusation more terrible than in the post office, leveled at a postal employee.

Postal workers know this and yet as surprisingly short intervals the word goes around that such-and-such a postal worker was picked up to disbelieve you turn eager eyes toward the place of the man's assignment but the man is gone silent confirmation. A veil of silence envelops the situation and details of the man's unseabeats or the functioning of the machinery of justice is forthcoming sometimes after a great tapse of time the information is uncovered that the man in question did or is doing time. That is all you become certain that in this particular office at least that sort of thing will never occur again that the lesson has been indelibly stamped upon everyone. But in an unbelievably short time the process is repeated and the cycle goes on.
This vice is not contended in any group or race among postal workers (clerks, laborers, and supervisors) at alike have a training and continuity fall for that undefinable lure of tax

ing a chance for easy gain. The thing looks so easy of accomplishment, no one is looking at the dupspears going the way of other sneak thieves.
The two instances referred to at the beginning of the article concern staps whose lives seemed exemplary. Certainly they were likable selves with pleasant dispositions whom no one would have associated with petty thieving. However, there is one difference between them. One was married and his family was dependent upon him for support solely dependent. That is where the slight note crept into the situation it seems such a pity that the treating wife and those innocent babies should suffer and live under the sting of the husband's fragrance. It is easy to conjure up a picture of an expectant eyes care listening for the familiar approach of the husband or daddy to the customary hour. And after using unexplained waiting those cage faces could up with alarm and dismay as the house drags by. And after training figures for the telephone the heart breaking news of the pickup the blight hopeless despair.
There is not the slightest doubt but that this particular husband would have shrunk from placing his family in that pathetic and defensive position as he would have shrunk from the touch of a leaper could the picture have been pinned for him before that as time went petty thieves had been committed And yet he had heard many times before of the downfall of others Why didn't those 'seasons stick' Why could he resist the lure of such cheap gain? Who will other postal employees in the future even those who read the article get picked up for being unable to resist the lure of a bully letter or a cheap article of merchandise And the answer like those to other questions bearing upon human traction is no reforming

Womanly Weakness
"I was suffering with we-
many weakness—in a run-
down condition, much under
weight," says Mr. Augusta
Hirschman. Alas, "I was
fired all the time. I would
get very nervous, did not
rest well at night, and did
not eating."
"I had heard much of
Cardui, I sent for a bottle
and took it regularly. I felt
stronger and better, and
wondered why I hadn't tried
at that time, and there was
such a big change in my
condition. I felt so much
better, and did not have the
weakness, and am now well."

CANCER INCREASE IN HARLEM CAUSED BY PROSPERITY Doctors Name Committee To Promote Intensive Prevention Program
Increase of cancer among the population of Harlem has led to the organization of a Cancer Educational Committee by the North Harlem Medical Society, which will cooperate with the American Society for the Control of Cancer in an intensive educational program.
The following committee has been named by Dr. Wiley M Wilson, president of the North Harlem Medical Society. Dr. Louis T Wright, chairman, Dr. Lucen M Brown, vice chairman, Dr. P M Murray, A. I Machee, R. Alexander, Godfrey Nurse A B. Arraves, J I Granady B R Rawls and Wiley M Wilson, ex-officio
The committee is organizing health meetings for the discussion of cancer among churches, fraternal organizations and parents' associations, and welcomes opportunities to present the problem before all groups in Harlem. Increase of deaths from cancer among Haitian immigrants, along with the increase among the colored population, emphasizes the fact that cancer is not a poor man's disease, says the committee. It is not the result of poverty or physical neglect nor is it an hereditary disease. However, the committee reports deaths in half of the 10,000 deaths from cancer which occurred in New York last year could have been cured if treated in time, and there were more deaths from cancer than from tuberculosis.

The proceeds of the dance will be used towards the payment of the clubs $1000 pledge for the Hampton-Tuskegee Endowment Land.
