Walker Beauty Shoppe 110 WEST 186th STREET Coffeyville, Kana—Ira Kennedy, a white man, and Julia Mooney, a white girl, have been arrested in connection with the alleged criminal assault on two white girls here last March that resulted in a race riot in which several persons were injured. State troops were called out to disperse a mob bent on lynching a Negro currier. The state forces freed the white beneficiaries out to death some important person or initially created a racial disturbance, no Negro had anything to do with this attack. On March 17, Julia Mooney, high school senior, and Margaret Akers told authorities three Negroes insulted them as they slept. Now Kennedy has been arrested on the charge of attacking Miss Akera, and the Mooney girl has been held as accessory before the fact. They have been placed in the jail at Independence, the County seat, under bond of $20,000 each. Has Moved To Wichita. Kennedy, a former automobile salesman, now lives in Wichita with his wife and four small chil- dren. Authorities charge that the Mooney girl convived with the assailants but that the Akers girl was an innocent victim. It is said that a retraction of the first story told by Miss Akers caused the arrest of Kennedy and Miss Mooney. Other arrests are expected. At the time of the trouble a mob invaded a Negro quarter. A youth was arrested. Then stormed for guns and ammunition. When the National Guard arrived the rioters were trying to break into the jail where a Negro suspect was held. The mob was finally dispersed after stoning the jail and damaging other buildings. The town was under martial law several days. There are 4,000 Negroes in Coffeyville out of a population of 20,000. Some have brought suit against the local government for damages sustained. AGENTS WANTED ..Has your honeypot town a New York Age representative?

Third The property of the Standard Life Insurance Company of Georgia was impounded on secure payment of any judgments rendered in favor of dissenting policyholders. Fourth The prayer of the plaintiff to join the National Benefit Life Insurance Company from removing any of the assets of the Standard Life Company from Georgia and from paying off the funds from the State was granted. Fifth The Court directed the attorneys on both sides to agree upon an auditor to be named by the court to sit in chancery and the order to set up a police force of policeholders and to report findings to the Court at such time as might be ordered. Intention of Court Interpreted The Flipper faction contends it is clear that the Court's intention is to protect the policholders by taking charge of the assets of the Standard Life Insurance Company, that the question of remuneration for policholders is open to policholders in that all who agree with Bishop Flipper and those who have not signed the bien placed against their policies sent sometime ago by the National Benefit may demand all the money they have paid in as premiums on their policies with legal interest and that their matters in the suit or have given assets may remit the so do the. W. Rutherford's position is that Judge Humphries not only barred the temporary injunction and other legal prohibitions but even further and enjoined the policholders from increasing the actions of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company from reclaiming the Standard Life Insurance Company.

Marian Anderson is an attraction with great drawing power but New Yorkers need special stirring up before their interest is aroused to the point of action. It was a distinguished audience that assembled, including a number of men and women who are distinguished in music, arts and the professions, of both races, and the folks sat quietly until 9:30, when they began to wonder what was causing the undue delay.

Judge Panken declared that it was his observation that gambling, especially that form of gambling known as "numbers" playing, was the menacing activity among the Negroes of New York. In Harlem, said Judge Panken the "numbers playing has gone so far that even grocers, stores and laundries are opened as a blind to carry on this business. In the long run in player cannion and the game afforded a living in "bums" and parasites who dress well and corrupt the morals of the young. These barkers, of the numbers, the judge caplained usually have a lot of money and are thus objects envy by the hard-working young men and by their lavish display of fines and gifts often start young women on the downward path. He did not hesitate to condemn the higher ups in the game referring to the members of his own race and said there should be some way by which these might also be published along with the runners and players. No amount of effort on the part of the police can break up the form of gambling easy Judge Panken. It is operated by such a loosel, formed organization that when it is checked in one place and the leader arrested, it can be started immediately in an office with little capital and conveniently little other equipment. Civic Organizations Needed. According to Judge Panken the only real man numbers' playing can be broken up in Harlem through a functioning of a nonpartisan civic organization that will raise the morale of the community. All who have racial pride and a sense ofracacaposibility should join such an organization that could reeach a strong semenegy against "numbers" players and hackers, that could be extradited from decent society. Mr. Moore asked about the effect of the Baumes Law on numbers' players that had been connected judge Panken says the Baumes Law cannot operate in the case of these connected players because this crime is classed as a mendemean and not a felony. Only people convicted for a felony under Baumes Law. Judge Panken told of his own activities before he was elevated to the bench in helping to wipe out some of the more undesirable conditions on the lower East Side. The police labarks succeed because of the ignorance of the masses of the people. Only an enlightened public opinion brought about through an organization of the best people in the community without regard to political and religious affiliations can build up the morale by the people in this respect. When the activities of the game blighting centre have been curbed many necessary civic improvements can be brought about Judge Panken said. One such improvement he mentioned was a Negro Hospital, moderately equipped and manned by a complete Negro staff. Mr Moore suggested that such an institution might be considered as an attempt to aggregate Negroes out of the city hospitals. He pointed out that Negro doctors were now being given opportunity in Harlem Hospital and Negro internes are now admitted to Bellevue. Judge Panker and the team were enough to give Nergus ample the real experience they need. He pointed to Mr. Willett and other Jewish hospital patients as examples of what is meant by the idea of the real of New York as much opposed to external segregation as Nergus and yet their physicians and scientists are becoming world famous because of the opportunities they have in private institutions such as Mr. Smai Hospital. Judge Panker in the final member of the Sorcerial Party in the bench in New York State and began the apitation of being one of the few learned and aggrieved men in the bench. During the hiatus he added to mark an A. Philip Randolph Is Commencement Speaker At N. C.

In closing the interview Judge Panken offered his services in any way possible toward helping to form the kind of civic organization he mentioned. Negro Newspapers To Have Exhibit In Orangeburg, S.

By A L HOLSEY Tuskeger Institute AIA—let there be light in the schoolhouse, in the need in the shop in the church was the plea for the passion of education made by Dr. Charles Albert Tindles pastor of the Fathalvary M. B. Church of Philadelphia who delivered the 46th anniversary commemoration address here Thursday afternoon at which the Dr. Robert R. Moonton principal awarded certificates and diplomas to 216 young men and women who have completed their courses in the vocational and academic work of Tuskeger Institute 'Presentation of candidates was made by Aliboo Holey, secretary of the Board of Trustees The world in which we live is not new nor has there been any addition of substance since creation. Dr. Tindley declared, "All the developments of physical substances has come about as a result of increased knowledge of the properties, powers and values of old things and not by the addition of new things. The things are there they need but to be asked for. No race that does not ask God for anything will receive an answer. God answers the questions of those who stir themselves and ask them. He would as soon answer black folk as white. He plays no favorites." Dr Moton Awards Diplomas In awarding the certificates and diplomas to the graduates, Dr Moton commanded them to lives of "faultful service in the highest-sense" the service that other Tankegue graduates and graduates of other schools have been rendering in proving that the Negro is worthy of all the consideration given other American citizens and that the two races can live together here in America, work together and prosper together without violence to the highest levels of either race. With the millions of our own race in this country who need light and leading, who are deprived of many of the opportunities and privileges which you have enjoyed, with these needs you have unlimited opportunity for service.

The 20th annual commencement of the Northwest School came a close Wednesday May 5th at 1:30 A large number of people gathered for the event. The program started over one week beginning on the 18th with the closing of the Model School's first three grades and the 19th with the next two grades of the Model School The R. R. K. Vinlay prescheduled the baccalaureate german Sunday night. His subject was the fun of farmer. Monday night the patron meet was held at which time a number of patrons come coming from as far as the lower part of Georgia and a number coming from various parts of South Carolina especially Orangeburg and Columbia. Tuesday at two o'clock the last day exercises. Tuesday night the oratorical contest, in which Prot Gordon Res Huskies and Miss Henderson all all State college arced as the board of judges. A remarkable set of original papers were developed by the young people ranging from grade ten through grade twelve. A 10th grade student won first prize a 12th grade student won 2nd prize and a 12th grade student id prize. The long looked in event curred when diplomas were given to a class of 40 and nine trade certificates were given at the same time. Henry Pearson Dean Clifton College addressed the Commission address. David Goodwine was invited back to speak for the graduates of the school. Prot Pearson's address was a powerful effort thoroughly enjoyed by all and will doubtless be long remembered by members of the senior class. Principal L F Blanton and Treasurer M A Menafee and the body of co-workers of 28 people report a very successful year from every angle. The plans for next year include the enlargement of the trades. Special efforts to be made to give trades to young men who have heretofore been turned away or lack of money. The idea now is to take young men from 19 to 2. a great many of this type have heretofore been turned away and let them work three weeks at their trades and work three days as a productive work to provide the money for their board. It is this that this will give a great many men a better knowledge of carpentry, wheelweighting, blanching, plumbing and farming than they would get other wise. This type of student will be at the school, especially for trade work getting whatever he can in the way of books. The thought is been from ten to twenty young men per year on this basis. This will in no wise minimize the importance of the high school training which is completed at the 2nd grade given by the school. These are grown young men, never expect to get into high school. Some are like as 5th grade and they be on trades. In keeping with this will be kept in the centre of the original store, the school Mr. J. C. was formerly Miss Leverton.

The plant would not be excessive. Ask Community Cooperation Harlem organizations have been moved from time to time by Dr. Rapp to take an active interest in the operation of Harlem Hospital and to visit and inspect the institution in order to gain accurate knowledge of its workings. Dr. Rapp believes that much of the periure training the host hospital in the minds of the language students would be eliminated by personal knowledge of the institution's operation. 1) though that a seeded nation by chiche fraternal or gan raions of society and the "cal group" directed in the form "gets up the nies" in the capital, even would down his lowly secure life in a place on the chin needed while the one to be able to be a chiche is a good all of the people of the community. ledge of conditions at Harlem Hospital, has served the institution as superintendent before going to Philadelphia, and she has always envisioned a lively interest in plans for betterment of conditions up town. Another local function, which would be of great benefit to the sick of the community would be the establishment of a fund for the securing of a staff of nurses who would supplement the work of the regular hospital staff and the visiting nurse service now operated by the Henry Street Settlement. There are many urgent cases in which expert nursing service is needed, but which cannot be supplied from the present limited forces available. Some community organization could raise a fund for this purpose, to be handled by a local board from which nurses could be paid for emergency service in urgent cases. In a talk with Dr. Rapp, he restated earnestly his desire that people of the community should personally acquaint themselves with the hospital operations, and he will welcome inspection visits at any time.

Speakers on various phases of the question addressed the faculty and student body of that institute and were afterward subjected to severe questioning by them. It is said that the wide latitude and pertinence of the questions asked indicated the intense interest being developed in the problem of the Negro worker's relationship to the organized labor movement in the country. At the first day session the speakers were Abraham L. Harris associate editor of The Messenger R René Lemus president of the Brotherhood of Dining Car Watters Dr. Robert Ragnall brancho director of the N.A.A. P. Roy Lancaster secretary treasurer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters and Bengal Sibbern noted labor journalist On the second day the speakers included I. Franklin Brazier in Morehouse College Atlanta Ga. Dr Norman Thomas, director ague for Industrial Democracy, Walt W. Wrenn Frank waith and A. Philip Randolph general organizer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. Randolph Makes Impression Mr Randolph treated a profound impression when it his scholarly style he pointed out that in attempting to find a solution for this so-called problem the Negro had first utilized the medium of intense racial propaganda wherein he tried to prove that he was not the sort of person as painted by those who would deny his essential humanhood. The Negro has now reached a state where he is denoting his attention to the more cultural side of his development, which he is beginning to realize rests upon economic power. The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters is the outstanding example of this new turn in the struggle of the Negro to equality with other races. It expresses his intent no longer to re-er to practise, self help.

THIRD TERM TRADITIONS As the probabilities increase that President Coolidge may be named as a candidate to succeed himself, the traditions against a third term are being invoked to avert that breaking of a precedent. Both Republicans and Democrats have been active in this opposition the former because they either prefer another candidate or fear to risk breaking a precedent and the latter because they do not under rate the strength of Mr. Coolidge as an opponent. Dr Nicholas Murray Butler who although he is a college president is also a veteran in politics is the most outstanding exponent of the third term tradition in New York State. But even Dr. Butler concedes that the people at large are no longer much concerned over the danger of keeping a President in the White House for more than two consecutive terms, especially when he has entered upon his first term through the vice-presidency. As the probabilities increase that President Coolidge may be named as a candidate to succeed himself, the traditions insist a third term are being invoked to start that breaking of a precedent. Both Republicans and Democrats have been alive in this opposition the former because they either prefer another candidate or fear to risk breaking a precedent and the latter because they do not under the strength of Mr. Coolidge as an opponent. Dr Nicholas Murray Butler, although he is a college president is no veteran in politics, is the most outstanding exponent of the third term tradition in New York State. But even Butler concedes that the people at age are no longer much concerned over the danger of keeping a President in the White House for more than two consecutive terms, especially when he has enced upon his first term through the vice-presidency. On the other hand Senator Edwards of New Jersey, a leading Northern Democrat, voiced the opinion that any worthy democrat of national reputation can be elected on this issue alone. He cited the historic precedents established against third termism in the cases of Washington, Madison, Jackson, Grant, Cleveland and Roosevelt, the last named forming the closest parallel to that of Mr. Coolidge. Claiming the forty-five electoral votes of New York and fourteen in New Jersey as lost to Coolidge in case Governor Smith is nominated Senator Edwards contended that the anti-third term argument would be a two-edged sword in the hands of the Democrats. He concluded that "constitutionally Mr. Coolidge stands on safe ground, but an impartial view of the political history of this nation will reveal the fact that men who marvel bitterly over any other subject have been at one mind, one heart and the soul where the expediency and desirability of a President permanently retiring at the end of his second term has been at issue." The New York Herald Tribune the journalistic exponent of latterday Republicanism, does not take the third term argument so seriously as either Dr. Baird or Senator Edwards. Taking notice of the former's objection it said editorially: On the other hand Senator Edwards of New Jersey, a leading Northern Democrat, voiced the opinion that any worthy Democrat of national reputation can be elected on this issue alone.

The New York Herald Tribune the journalistic exponent of latterday Republicanism, does not take the third term argument so seriously as either Dr. Burr or Senator Edwards. Taking notice of the former's objection it said editorally: After all, when is a Presidential term a term? When it last four years or when it lasts three years, two years, one year, months, sixty days or sixty hours. President Coolidge on March 4, 1929 will have served only five years and seven months. How could public opinion be persuaded to consider that service equivalent to two full terms? The dea is biased and tantalizing. It lacks humor and practical sense. Few people care much about academic hair splitting. Even the politicians who are willing to thunder about third termism know that the reverberations they set in motion are laxed and hollow. The country will not own reasonable judgment as to what constitutes a third term, and what objections may lie, if the case should present itself against three full terms in succession. Of course, this is mere quibbling as there is any danger to the stability of republican institutions to be anticipated from a third term it matters not whether the first term was inaugurated by election or transfer from the vice-presidency in the early days of the republic the sentiment against too prolonged lease of power for any executive was due to the air of relapsing into autocratic form of Of course, this is mere quibbling as if there is any danger to the stability of republican institutions to be anticipated from a third term it matters not whether the first term was inaugurated by election or transfer from the vice-presidency in the early days of the republic the sentiment against too prolonged lease of power for any executive was due to the fear of relapsing into autocratic form of government with the president as a director. Hence the precedent set by Washington and adhered to by his successors. Even so popular a military hero as Grant could not break this precedent. Therefore the practice has become to change the individual executive after two terms, although the underlying forces that make or break an administration may remain the same. The fact remains that Mr. Coollidge will probably be remininated by the men who dictate Republican policies think he can retain the popular vote he rolled up against Davis.

LINCOLN'S LOST SPEECH. An Associated Press dispatch from Indianapolis last week gave an account of the finding of a speech made by Abraham Lincoln in his campaign against Stephen A. Douglas in that city on September 19, 1859. This speech, it appears, has hitherto been overlooked by historians and biographers of Lincoln although it was devoted to an attack on the "Great Principle of Popular Sovereignty" advocated by Douglas on which the latter based his tolerance of slavery. A resume of this speech was found in a copy of the Daily Atlas, a publication long since for gotten but preserved in the files of the State Library at Indianapolis. The significant portion of Mr Lincoln's speech, which was said to have taken two hours for its delivery, was his reference to Douglas' position on the question of slavery. According to the account published in the Daily Atlas, Lincoln assailed his position in the following language. Douglas don't care whether slavery goes up or down. He tells us that the Declaration of Independence never meant Negroes and not only does he tell us so, but every follower joins in and says that the Declaration does not apply to Negroes. The report further stated that the speaker asked any Democrat present of he would have the boldness to say that the Declaration of Independence did not include Negroes as well as whites. At this point Mr. Lincoln is said to have looked hard at Governor Willard, the Democratic governor of Indiana, who was sitting on the platform in front of him. The speaker continued that he never heard any one say so and he had asked thousands. No President had ever said so no head of any department, nor a member of Congress This speech made by the Republican candidate for the Presidency shows how advanced a position he had taken on the question of slavery at this period although it was to be modified later, after his election and assumption of the responsibilities of office. But at this time he was joined with William H. Seward afterwards his Secretary of State, in supporting the idea of an irreconcilable conflict between slavery and freedom, which admitted of no compromise Stephen A. Douglas on the other hand, was a born compromise who was seeking support from the Democrats both North and South. Hence his policy was denounced to one Indianapolis paper as "a selfish shameless bit of demagoguism." The discovery of this long lost speech made by Mr. Lincoln before he was elected President throws new light upon his personal attitude toward the issue of slavery before he was in a position to wipe it out by a stroke of his pen. His best tance in making that stroke may be attributed to a conscientious regard for the best interest of the nation which caused him to subordinate personal connections to the public good. Fortunately the issue of events forced both these factors to combine and emancipation was the result. A FLYER'S EQUIPMENT The teat of Charles A. Lindbergh, flying a monoplane from New York to Paris without a stop in less than thirty six hours, captured the imagination and esked the admiration of the people of both continents. Without limitation on race or creed everyone praised his skill and intrepidity in undertaking so strenuous an enterprise and carrying it to a successful issue. The cool self-reliance that prompted him to make such an adventure alone and unaided showed the stuff of which the typical American is made. Non did Captain Lindbergh's demonstration of the best qualities that go to form the typical American end with his safe arrival in Paris. His course action ever since the completion of his trip has shown him to be modest and unassuming in his demeanor, accepting the plaudits of the crowds and the leading men of the French nation without becoming unduviis puffed up over his exploits. He has also paid grateful tributes to the two Frenchmen who attempted the same feat with disastrous results in natural and unaffected a manner as to the hearts of the nation which mourns their loss in unknown territories. The exploit of a young American who not long ago was only known to a limited number as a skillful aviator in the industrial major planes, is not without its lessons and example for the south of this country. It shows that the qualities that enabled him/her to make it hazardous teat a success consisted of the simple virtues which many affect to develop in this sophisticated age. The utilization of good habits a sound construction the power of endurance the ability to keep awake and alert under train modes of speech confidence in the knowledge gained by experience all these things helped Lindbergh to make this flight a success and to make his personality tell after he had landed. With this natural and acquired endowment, it followed as a matter of course that Lindbergh, after his spectacular arrival, should be greeted as an ambassador of goodwill by so impressionable a nation as the French. He has shown that good habite and a modest bearing are an excellent equipment to carry, even on an airplane. His experience should lead to a wider cultivation of these qualities among American youth. FLOOD REVEALS PEONAGE Reports from the Mississippi flood area reveal the existence of a state of peonage among the Negroes who have been driven from the plantations by the rising waters and are prevented from leaving concentration camps without the consent of their landlords Walter White, assistant secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is responsible for this statement he having ascertained the facts in a trip South which included Memphis Jackson Vicksburg New Orleans and other points in the flooded district At Memphis Mr White talked with Dr William R Reden, chief medical officer for the Red Cross in the flood area, who authorized the following statement Reports from the Mississippi flood area reveal the existence of a state of peonage among the Negroes who have been driven from the plantations by the rising waters and are prevented from leaving concentration camps without the consent of their landlords Walter White, assistant secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is responsible for this statement he having ascertained the facts in a trip South which included Memphis Jackson Vicksburg New Orleans and other points in the flooded district At Memphis Mr White talked with Dr William R Redden, chief medical officer for the Red Cross in the flood area, who authorized the following statement The Red Cross emphatically disapproves of any attempts to use this disaster by landlords further to enslave Negro tenant farmers and share croppers. Aid is given directly to the individual sufferer. It would be an interesting problem to see that attempts by landlords and others to charge relief against tenants are checked when such relief is given to refugees after they have returned to their home. Mr. White added that in many refugee camps Negroes are released only to their landlords and are sent back to the plantation from which they came. This fact was confirmed by General Curtis T. Green commanding the Mississippi National Guard at Vicksburg, who told Mr. White that labor agents are kept from the camps, no man being permitted to talk to any other but his own Negroes." This fully corroborates all the stories of the widespread conditions of peonage which prevail in many parts of Mississippi, Louisiana and Arkansas. It is an excellent time for the Department of Justice, which has investigated peonage conditions in Georgia and Florida and prosecuted these modern slaveowners to institute similar investigations in the flooded area. Evidence of the existing state of peonage is so patent in the conditions reported by Mr. White that the agents of the Department would have no difficulty in securing the necessary proof to constrict Secretary Hoover's relief corps and the employees of the Red Cross work could turnish sufficient information to start the investigation. Concerning the work of the Red Cross, Mr. White said that his talk with the responsible heads impressed him with their attitude of taurness and impartiality, but of course individual subordinates in doing the work do not always act in accordance with the expressed spirit of the Red Cross. The attention of the central administration is being called to the complaints. In the meantime the Federal authority should be invoked to end the state of peonage revealed in the flooded district.

The Church Temperance Society a voluntary organization of the sergeant and actuary of the National Church through a board of directors, centrally took action to promote the cause of true temperance. In resolutions defining its aim and objects it asserted that the amendment itself ablemished the constitution and enforcement of the law has been a failure.

The resolutions further recited that the failure of the present prohibition law had resulted in increased drink and drunkenness and use of opiates and had fostered political corruption Other indictments drawn against prohibition were that a law of this character tends to promote bitterness and violence and encourages hypocrisy. It was held the temperate should not be made subject to the same restrictions as the temperate and that entitle subject to very doubtful value.

Manning of the Dlogese of New York, in a statement issued a few days later, rebuked the Church Temperance Society for its action, declaring that it had no authority to speak for the Episcopal Church. The Bishop affirmed that the mind of the House of Bishops was expressed at the convention in 1925, when it called by resolution upon the people of the Church to set a good example of obedience to the law, in the matter of prohibition and the anti-narcotic laws. The Bishop further said that we should all wish to see this great social experiment of prohibition fully and fairly tried and should give it our full moral support 1919-TO OUR FALL By Sergent GREEN [Co.

This phenomenon is so pervasive more in connection with colored education in the South than in connection with white education of the North where as at all universities properly so-called a branch of learning is offered and taught. and I am inclined to think that I due to the fact that it is only with recent years that the Northwestern universities have been producing colored graduates in science. If this is true one can easily understand how it comes about that the new learning is captivating the minds of young students who are regardless of the nature of their future career are meddling with science. On the other hand, with the ad- venience of colored schools classi- sultaneously found a place on the curriculum, because these in- stitutions were more or less reju- nished, and their objects the con- spairmen for the ministry. It is a difficult matter, and complement colored teachers in classrooms in New York and the state board reports that we are again not unattractive to the lea- ning of classical music, but the nation is undoubtedly ditations have precluded the minds of many colored students who might have pursued a classical course in the branch of education were leared under better conditions. I do not blame colored students who heartache to take up a classi- cal course, but I certainly o- nder it amazingly strange the part of colored teachers who liberated attempt to discourage classical training. In all large cities in America where the educational system promotes education, an im- mune white minority there an im- mune demand on it. A small minority may not be pro- tected an legion. He is cleared an people in the world that produce a good life. There is no lack of moral, and even financial support for prohibition among the people to whom the good bishop addressed his plea but it has been charged that very few of them believe in the practical application of total abstinence, so far as they are personally concerned. Prohibition is lauded as a good thing for the white and black laboring masses in that it enables them to render better and more regular service. But it was not intended to apply to the master minds that control capital or to any white men in the South who have the ingenuity to run a moonshine still. There is still a mission for the Church Temperance Society to perform in instilling the principles of true temperance and sobriety. HILEN HEROES-1927 MILEAF B.

In the polligus. Phones all here are classical objects. th e r o g / m a n t In recording the fact that a new connection building has been started for the African Methodist Episcopal Church in Philadelphia the Christian Recorder said. This is truly a historic beginning. The Book Concern was organized in 1852 and incorporated in 1855 and in 1860 the present site was purchased from Stephen Smith in 1893 the present building was built by the Business Manager 11 Embr and the Book Concern remained under heavy debt for more than 25 years following In 1920 the debt was entirely paid off and the preparations for the new building were begun. In 1927 we are to realize the new building Manager Baxter who has almost single index and alone brought about the great results which now see us in going to give the surprise to the Connection by giving the finest building which our Church has anywhere to business purposes. This will justify the sacrifices of those who have for the past 70 years been struggling to make the Book Concern what it should be. The building will not only contain offices for the staff of the various Church publications and general officers but will have a large hall on the top floor and store rooms rented on the first floor. Referring to the fight against a segregated public school at Toms River, J. the Red Banks said The Rev. George Crawley, together with the leading colored citizens and parents of Tomie River, are fighting a great fight against odds at a sinister nature. They have won the first round of the fight in that the court freed the parents from humiliating their kids. The next round of the fight came this week when the State Board of Education made a decision on the jurisdiction in favor of the parents and their children. The final step the test case to compel admissions of a colored child to the Dove School will come up in the Supreme Court of New Jersey. Senator Simpson Democratic Senator who was made famous by the Hall Mills case is attorney for the child. It is said that all the parents are keeping their children from attending the im稚ow school and that intension between the race is exhibited on Tomi River. --- In a news article announcing the greatest cattle movement in forty years the Los Angeles New Aoe Dispatch brought out a curious bit of information it said.

So rounding up cattle and dogging steers must be added to multitasking occupations skilled and unskilled in which the rate is resented. Local sentiment on the return of Poro College back into the hands of the owner was reflected in an editorial in the St. Louis Journal as follows: The news of the return of Porter college to its owner Mrs. Anne M. Malone during the past week, of a popular show of appeal of the people not only in Louis but throughout the city, this was right and it should be. The public had little or no interest in the domestic relation of Mr. and Mrs. Malone but so happened that Porter college because of its financial standing, had become to be regarded as a race institution upon which we looked with a deal of pride. And to see it in the hands of a white receiver lording over the affairs which he had not contributed a dime was just a bit more than the people could stomach with silence. Of course this condition of affairs brought on a deal of uneasiness. And uneasiness brought up a prolog that there were no a conspiracy to wrest Porter college from the control of the colored people. But all is well that ends well. Of course Poro College has any other business institution suffered because of the receiver. The loss in its daily receipts must be brought back to normal through loyalty. Its continued success means a benefit to the race. Therefore let all join in with heart and soul and help make it even greater than before. This expression would show that there are exceptions to the rule that a prophet is not without honor, saved in his own country. It may be that Aaron represented the prophet in the case and the honor went to Mrs. Malone. As an example of equanimity in regarding the issue of a recent municipal election we recommend the following from an editorial in the Denver Co. Newsletter: There is no need for Denver voters to become greatly confused by a mayorality choice in the election of next Tuesday in understanding the multiply-candidate in the field. There is no common sense here open to Negro voters and that to a vote for that appear whom we honestly feel would more readily represent all that we hope for and aspire to be aware of.

Then we which are alive and remain shall be urged to go to heaven, to guard the Lord in the air and to shall we ever be with the Lord." 1. Thess. 4, 16, 17 Themes "The second advent of our Lord is attracting again great attention among believers in Him today Pastor Bolden said: "The gentile, Apostle Paul, seemed to have been such close contact with our risen and ascended Lord, Jesus Christ, the immigrant, that he was authorized to bring His glorious return. In the end of the text, we see here a our and pictureque description of the manner of our Lord's appearance. We also note that the Apostle Paul described what would take place among the groups and amount to the outlived program. He spoke of the nearness of our Lord was hard, that some them, who would be bound, would be charged by the power and will of the Lord in body and mind; that they would become what we may term either spiritual persons, and be taught up with the Lord in the air, and be forever with Him. There has been much controversy throughout the whole of the Christians are on what is regarded to be Paul's second advent deluge. finding and destructive effects of having a poor certain ground, be it in the day or especially the thinnishman. He later attempted recently their views of neglecting that daily work and death by wait and washing for the return of Lord the Emmanuel; by instruc- tion in the thought that since they must eat to live therefore they ought and should work. He also reminds them that while they, like himself, expected the return of our day and day and hour no man thin of course is in line with their prophecies of our Immanuel Himself. He learned in His par- tition, light of that influence, in the minds of many. Why does this thought persist among the Gentiles? And why many religious leaders in the apocalyptic and coming events, what they regard as be manifestations of the second advent. We believe that one of the reasons for this irreasurable thought in the consciousness of people is because it is a truth and the mystical presence of our Lord on the earth and in the human condition; and they will moribous bodily presence. Allah Almighty, will be revealed. The idea of expectancy and nearness of it return to groups of people throughout the age; while it may serve many purposes it is clearly seen that it should make people careful towards another and have constant holy, reverence and attitude our Lord Jesus the Emmanuel, who should declare themselves as having a mind and spirit, doing always the will of their Father God. At 2 p.m. the Sunday school was opened by the assistant superintendent, Miss Maggie Johnson. A review of the lesson was given by Frank Greene and Beatrice Lyghta.

St. Paul Baptist Church The pastor certainly appreciates the loyalty of the officers and members in their support of the meetings held during last week in the interest of the Educational Center and particularly, the vacant bible schools. There were four of the meetings held in the four consecrated week and through the work of the church had to be carried on there were some of our people present at all these meetings. The pastor abstained himself from the Wednesday night meeting to be present with the young people in their meeting at home. The president was full of interest the president M. Minton Johnson in the absence of Cresswell, who was on to open the topic being late, opening it, and giving all an opportunity to speak. The topic was intelligently discussed Mr. Stratton who later came in apologized for his lateness stating that it was unavoidable but he and estimate that this had been caused by the question to an answer say which he had to people to read at that meeting. Through an overnight he was not called upon to read and the Pastor knew nothing at the time of his having made preparation. However he has been asked to bring that essay to the meeting of the week, and we are expecting something out of the ordinary. The prayer services Friday and Sunday were very good and well attended. Sunday the choir was at its best at both services and the pastor, though he no means well was on the job both morning and night.

George H Sims, pastor. The plants of two stories to the six stories now on the 145th street are a side hall and a stairing of the roof of the theatre and remodeling the interior by addition of a balcony and other modern improvements. The improvement when completed will cast in the neighborhood of $125,000. The trustees plan to dispose of the church building and other property at 20:56 West 63rd street and concentrate all the church activities to Harlem. At present Sunday school and evening services are held on the 14th street and the building on 145th street and morning services are held in the old church building in 63rd street. But since most of the congregation has moved to Harlem there is a growing sentiment that all activities of this church he transferred to the Harlem territory for the remodelling of the Harlem property have been left to the Norton Construction Company at 152 West 42nd street and this company hopes to have the remodelling completed by the first of January 1928. Rev George H. Sims, the present pastor, established Union Baptist Church twenty-eight years from store to nearly 2,000 and the real estate owned by the congregation amounts to more than $250,000. Fleet St. Memorial A. M. E. Zion Church The sermon on Sunday morning was delivered by the pastor, Rev. W. C.

The Sunday school anniversary rally was a decided success, all classes being represented credibly both in attendance and finance. The started concert under the suspense of the evening Board attended at the evening service was a delightful treat. Friday evening, June 3rd, the sequestra annual reception by the officers and members of the church will be tendered Rev and Mrs. E. Brown, a splendid program in connection with the church has been arranged. Some of the leading artists of greater New York will appear including Mme. Theresa W.

We want to express our thanks to groups and to individuals who have responded so very generously to our request for clothes for the flood sufferers. The response we thought at one time an additional appeal would have to be made for barrels in which to pack the thingal. The clothing has been packed under the supervision of Mrs. Eva T. Parks, Chairman of the committee, and has been shipped, free of charge, by the American Express. The par women group under the Chairmanship of Mrs. Bessie Beardon, gave most active cooperation in securing the clothing.

JAMES ENTERS NEW LOCATION ON HEIGHTS AFTER SUCCESSFUL BUILDING CAMPAIGN IN MAY—SUNDAY, JUNE 5th The St James Presbyterian Church, in entering its thirty-third year of service in New York City, since its founding in 1895 by the late Rev Piierre Butler Thompkins in herole service and sacrifice, is entering a larger and more conducive church home on June 5, 1922. The people and pastor, Rev William Lloyd Ims, who came to the pastorate in the fall of 1925 have been preparing diligently for this expansion of their work, and have not only been successful in raising a fund of over $500,000 toward this project, the church purchasing 141st street, but have also won the confidence and good will of the public in the city of New York, and of Harlem in particular. The church edifice to which they go is the one formerly occupied by the St Nicholas avenue Presbyterian Church, and was made available by the merging of that congregation with the North Presbyterian Church likely to be installed. Thirteen years ago, St James Church moved into Harlem in the 137th street location, which they have now outgrown. The Opening Services The opening services of the church in the new location will be held on Sunday, June 5, at which time the sermon will be preached by the Rev H G Mendenhall, stated clerk of the Presbytery of New York. At the evening service the pastor, and former pastors of the church, sofar as possible for them to be present, will preside and the Communion of the Lord's Supper will be observed On Monday, June 6. "All Presbyterian Evening" will be celebrated, and the Rev George S Stark, pastor of the Church Prep, will preside, and the choir of Sothem Church will render the music. The sermon of that occasion will be preached by the Rev A E Ben Which Should Be Greatest? From Watchman and Messenger, Greenshore, N. C. Long, long ago when men had more interest in human welfare than is now apparent, before the dollar became the god of commerce and fashion the frivolity of youth, there arose a dispute among a group of men as to which should be greatest. It was when Jesus was here among men. The question was put to Him for final decision and settlement, and He ruled that a man's greatest depends upon the service which he renders for the good of mankind accepting the detention of Jesus Christ by giving him this application, we then admit this Prof. Chas H Moore is one of the greatest among us. As he himself says, for 40 years he has labored for the betterment of humanity The L. Richardson Memorial is another evidence of the service which Prof Moore has rendered. And whereas that hospital is quite largely the gift of Christ which we have received which they have in the professors' labor on behalf of that institution has much to do with its benece a perfect reality in the life and health of Negro talk hereabouts. The Richardson Hospital When Charles H Moore was elected president of the Greenwich Hospital Association over four years ago, he called to his aid a few of the leading professional and business men of the city to establish a modern hospital in our race group in this community.

But Prof. Moore and his co-workers refused to cry out "comrade." Finally as the result of appeals having been made personally by Prof Moore to a few white friends of the race, the hospital project is now a living actuality, worth over $125,000, and was dedicated on May 27. Some of the white friends who have made it possible for this important, above-mentioned event to take place are the Richardson family, that gave $50,000 in the memory of the late Lunstorf Richardson, who was the founder of the Lunstorf Medical Center, the Vick Chemical Company. Mr. Richardson was a sincere friend of our race during his life time in consequence of which the hospital was named for him. Another large donor is Mrs. E. Sternberger, widow of the late Emmanuel Sternberger, secretary Emmanuel Sternberger, secretary-facturing plant in the world (The Cone Mills), who gave $10,000. Some of the few who gave small amounts which were greatly appreciated are: Mr. Benjamin Duke of American Tobacco Company, New York, $2,500; Latham Cotton Company, $1,000; Cone Expert Company, Greensboro, $2,000 and other white friends in various sums from $100, $200 and $500.

HARRY WILLS SIGNED TO BOX PAULINO AT POLO GROUNDS The silence that has enveloped Harry Wills, Negro heavyweight champion since his defeat last summer, by Jack Sharkey, was broken Thursday, May 26, with an announcement from Humbert Fugazay that he would present Wills in the feature bout at the Polo Grounds on June 29. Wills' opponent will be Paulino Urcudan, Spanish heavyweight. The bout will be in the nature of a comeback for Wills and should he be successful in defeating the Spaniard he may get the bout he long sought with Jack Dempsey. In securing the Wills-Paulino bout Fugazy who is a rival promoter of Tex Rickard, put one over on the tall Texan. Fugazay has been growing in power in boxing circles this year and his activities for the summer bids fair to overshadow Rickard's plans. Especially since Rickard made a financial failure of the Sharkey-Maloney contest. The fans are turning more and more to Fugazy. The Pete Latzo-Joe Dundee bout for the welterweight championship of the world, scheduled for this Friday night, is the first of a series of 8 open air bouts, that the Italian promoter has scheduled for the Polo Grounds and Ebbets Field in Brooklyn. In addition to his outdoor activities Promoter Fugazay has also announced plans for an indoor arena that will surpass Madison Square Garden, construction of which will be begun early next month. At least the colored sport writers will welcome Fugazy's ascent in the boxing firmament, for he alone among the promoters has shown disposition to be fair to colored fighters and the colored public generally. It's an open secret that Rickard has little or no use for Negroes and it was his opposition to a Wills-Dempsey bout, more than any thing else, that prevented Harry from getting a chance at the heavyweight little when he was at the height of his form. Whether Harry can get into condition for this bout or not is a question. His long absence from the ring together with his advanced age is expected to be a big handicap. However, Paulino is no such fighter as Jack Sharkey and if Wills is anywhere near his old time form he should win handily. HITT and KUNB — He Was, at the Right House, but—the Wrong Floor?

The opening contest went ten innings and ended in a score of 9-8. In the other game, which had to be called at the end of the seventh inning because of the open air box bouts at this park that evening, ended in a score of 6-2. This was the eighth straight defeat for the Lincoln Giants and Manager Lloyd is planning a big shakeup in the team. The Royal Giants are showing, a wonderful improvement, over their work of the first two weeks, and they seem to have found one of the best outfielders in the league in Arnold, their new left fielders. Holland pitched the first game and Flournoy was on the mound in the other for the Royals Craig and Dudley did most of the pitching for the Lincoln Giants. ST. JUDES CARPET St. Luke's Chapel of 19 West 99th street, held a unique service on Sunday afternoon, May 29th, in the form of a Flower Festival. There was a procession of three bundled children.

Hildale Breaks The Cubans Winning Streak Philadelphia, Pa.—The southpaw slants of Nip Winters, and his ability to hit Oscar's pitching and Jake Stevens agile work in the field were entirely, too much for Alex Pomper's Cuban Stars and the Hilldale Club tucked away, a 5 to 2 victory over the islanders at Hilldale Park, Saturday, May 28. In winning the contest, Winters ran his string of Saturday afternoon victories to four, that incidentally takes in all of the weekend games played at the Darbey ball lot this season. While the Stars collected seven safe hits, so effective was Winter's hurling, that except for an error on the part of Warfield, the Cubans would have been shut out victims. With Winters taking care of the pitching endend, Jake Stevens, the York, P. youth put in a busy day around shortstop and aime and again came to Winter's rescue with his spectacular fielding. Stevens, also supplied the punch in the way of two base hits to left, field that sent three runners over the plate and practically clinched the contest in the first inning. In his frame Warfield singled past Alfonso with one out. Judy Johnson drew a pass, Thomas filed out to Fabre and then Oscar decided to walk Washington and pitch to Stevens. She now him his error by not pitching a line doubled to left that unloaded the bases. Stevens was charged with two errors, but easily atoned for them by accepting ten of his twelve chances on many difficult tries. When the visitors threatened a rally in the ninth inning and had runners on second and third, with two men out. Stevens went across second to take Alfonso's hard hit grounder with one hand and tossed him out at first for the final put out of the game. Oscar, the Cuban splitball pitcher hurled a steady game, but the Darby Daisies bunched their hits in two innings to put the game on ice.

Bacharach Giants Take 10 Inning Game and Series From Lincolnns In winning the final-game Sunday afternoon, May 29, at Protectory Oval, the Bacchariar Giants, pennant winners of last season, copped the three game series from the Lincoln Giants. The final game was won only after ten hard innings of fighting. The score stood 2-2 when the Bees came to bat in their-ball of the tenth and Giantenator had put out; the first two batters when Oliver Marcel, former Lincoln Giants player came to bat Marcel hit what should have been a single into left field but Scott-lett the ball get pass him and Oliver made it to third. When the ball was replayed to Robinson, he made a throw at home plate, which enabled the visitors to score the winning run. They to make sure of victory, Chaney White hit a two bagger and Manager Lundy scored him with another two bagger. The final score was 4-2. The Bacchariar had defeated the local team at Mt. Holly, N. J. on Saturday by a score of 0-3. And in the opening game Sunday they won by a score of 12-7 The Lincolnis are still in the throes of the slump which struck them when Montaloa was taken from the lure-up and unless another cut-fielder is secured soon they will be so far from first place it will be impossible for the team to catch up. However, Manager John Henry Lloydi is not discouraged and expects to remedy the present defects by next Sunday, when the Lincolnis begin their second series with Hildale- Pi Kappa Delta Frat Dance A Big Success Beta Chapter of Pi Kappa Delta Fraternity held their annual sch- lolarship dance on Friday evening, May 27, at Imperial Garden on Fulton street.

C—On the last leg of their dual tennis tournament Alton Bythewood overcame the Paine College ace's lead and decisively won, the singles here Saturday, May 28. The doubles played the day before was also won by Claflin and thus left Paine without a single honor in the first annual tennis matches between Claflin and Paine. On Friday when the doubles were played Alton Bythewood and T. K Bythewood, brothers were napped against Cherie and Floyd of Paine and the Claflin pair easily won the last leg on the cup by a score 64.1, 57.7, 60. Saturday morning began the singles in which Paine had placed her homes but all was in vain for T. K Bythewood, defeated his man Floyd of Paine, just as he had done the work before in Augusta by a score of 75.5-64. The week before in Augusta Cherry the Paine college luminaries had nosed out over Alton Bathsheba and by the results of the first set at Orangeburg it looked as if he would again heat but the Clafain are began to return the shots of Cherry in the second set and Cherry weakened. Soon Bathsheba had broken through two services and won the second, set in the third and final set he did the same and thus won the first annual tennis tournament for Clafain. The score for Bathsheba was 64-61. Bonnie Tadler for Clafain started in the third single match against Martin for Paine but was unable to complete a set on account of rain; it was a sad occasion for Paine because Clafain had sent them back home with their popular arc defeated and not a single honor for the contest. Evelyn Ellis and Co: To Present "Rain" At The Alhambra Mystery. Drama Presented This Week By Negro Cast Is Meeting With Success the revival of the drama at the Alhambra Theatre, 126th street and Sventh avenue, by Miss Evelyn Lilian and an all star colored company, has met with so much approval, the management is presenting another famous Broadway drama at this theatre next week. "The Cat and the Canary," which is playing this week, is especially entertaining to the large audiences that are visiting the Alhambra. "Rain," which has just closed a two year run, including more than a year on Broadway, is the offering for next week. The scene of this play is the boarding house of Joe Horm, an American, and his native wife, Ameena, at Pago Pago, in the South Seas. Here the steamer discharges a woman of the underworld, a missionary doctor and his wife, and a missionary minister and his wife. Because of a case of cholera on to remain on the island for six days and the incessant rain gets on all their nerves. The missionary discovers that their strange companion is a woman of loose habits and also that she escaped from San Francisco where she was under indictment. His keen desire to save sinners causes him to cry and save Sadie Thompson. The girl from Frisco. When she seems his efforts, the missionary begins to persecute her and finally gets an order from the governor of the island, for her deportation back to the United States. The girl begs her persecutor not to send her back to the States and when he turns a deaf ear on her plea, she listens to his religious talk and reforms. But after the missionary has gotten her in his power, he takes advantage of her, causing his own undoing and that of the girl. In the final scene the missionary commits suicide and Sadie Thompson returns to the easiest way. Real drama, novelty and excitement are wrapped up in this show and the Harlem public cannot but be entertained by it. There will be matiness on Tuesday Thursday and Saturday and a special midnight performance on Friday Harold Lloyd In "The Kid Brother" Now At The Lincoln Theatre Harold Lloyd In "The Kid Brother" Now At The Lincoln Theatre "The Kid Brother" has been selected as the title of Harold Lloyd's new Paramount release which is scheduled for showing at the Lincoln Theatre. Lloyd's now opus, which has been in production for six months is rated by those who have seen it as the comedian's finest endeavor to date. In gag sequences it's said to surpass anything that the star has done heretoire. Johanna Ralston is again Harold's leading woman, and in his supporting cast are Walter James, Olin Frank Leo Willis, Eddie Boland, Ralph Yearsley and Frank Lanning. The locale of the story, which was written by Lloyd and his staff is laid in the mountains and on ship board. While most of the action takes place in a hill-billy town, it is on board a ship that a terrific fight reminiscent of the one in "Grandmother's Boy." takes place. The Douglass Theatre A well-defined plot, capable direction, realistic settings and veritable acting recommend "Paying the Price," the Columbia drama now showing at the Douglass Theatre, not only to the average fan, but also to the person who likes to see a picture directed with a bit of "gray matter." The unfolding of the story, in which a city notorious for its evil haunts is the locale of the stirring events that lead up to a climax of murder has been admirably handled by Director David Selman. He has surrounded the screen tale with an atmosphere of grim realism that is highly convincing. The players show the same sincerity evidenced in the director's work. Priscilla Bonner and Marjorie Bonner are appealing as the two young sisters whose one visit to a glamorous resort leads to tragic results.

Belle Bennett in "Mother" at Roosevelt Some wise man once remarked: "No actor can play a part that he has not lived." And there is much truth in the statement; no matter how capable the player may be, his imagination can never quite supply the emotions and feelings of reality And this is unquestionably the reason for the tremendous success of Belle Bennett in portraying a "mother" role, both in "Stella, Dallas," and in her latest picture, "Mother," which will be seen at Roosevelt Saturday Sunday and Monday. The day before she began work in the former picture, her son died, and she had to conceal the pain with a brave heart, and go on in her role. How much this tragedy had to do with her incomparable acting in the film is difficult to say. But it must have played large, if unseen, share in enabling her to interpret her part with its artistry. Again, in her new product, the watches her "film" son, William Bakewell, gradually drawn away from her through outside influences despite her efforts to hold him. Too much jazz, too much freedom and too much prosperity contribute to this, and Miss Bennett achieves new laurels in her marvelous portrayal of the mother who sees herself losing Feen-a-mint The Laxative You Chew Like Gum No Taste But the Mint 1904 ANNUAL SPRING DANCE 1927 Given By At Renaissance Casino, 138th St. and 7th Ave. Music By JOHN C SMITH and His Modern Dance Orchestra SUBSCRIPTION $1.00.

Finally, at 5 minutes to 10, a portly gentleman mounted the staged briefly apologized for the delay, and said the concert would begin in ten minutes. But it was fully a half hour later when William L. King, accompanist for Miss Anderson, escorted the singer to the platform and announced to the audience that the program would not be given, with further information that this unfortunate denounce was through no fault of Miss Anderson or of Salem Church, but was solely due to the fact that the concert promoter had fallen down on their contract. The Rev. Dr. Frederick A. Cullen pastor of Salem Church, then mounted the rostrum and supplemented Mr. King's statement by emphasizing the fact that Salem Church had nothing to do with the concert officially; that a group of young men, who were not personally known to him, had rented the edifice for the occasion, and had not even paid the rent. Then some of the people in the audience began to voice an anxious inquiry as to the whereabouts of their money. Their persevered led to the discovery that apparently the men in charge of affairs had disappeared some half hour or so earlier, and that there was no need to give satisfaction to the anxious ones. In the meantime someone found a man dressed in evening clothes who turned out to be one of the club men, but he earnestly and eloquently insisted that he was not a responsible official. However he announced his willingness to do what he could, and said he would refund the $15 admission to as many as possible, and would make arrangements to take care of the rest on Friday. But one angry auditor, crowding up on the platform, made some sort of a demand which was not acceded to, and the angry man gave the club member either a blow or a shove that sent him reeling from the pulpit to the floor of the auditorium. Dr Cullen quickly grabbed the assistant and the floored clubman dblunched back to the rostrum. The people milled and crowded about the pulpit, and stood in waitful groups about the building, wondering just how to protect their interests. Through the intercession of Dr Cullen and his son, the brilliant young poet, it was finally arranged that the club member would refund to as many as possible, and that tickets would be returned to others which they might be able to have redeemed later. And then started another rush, as Dr Cullen and Countee escorted the club, representative to the front door lobby, where it was planned that the folks could collect as they passed out. The narrow hall and small lobby was quickly a squirring mass of humanity, each fighting to be one of the few fortunate enough to get their money back. The luckless ones were greatly in the majority. Later, it was stated that the man returning money to the people was really John M. Johnson, who is president as well as director of the club. At least, at a reception tendered Miss Anderson and Mr. King at the studio of Miss Bertha DesVerney, 253 West 136th street, Johnson and another member of the club put in an appearance, telling a story to the effect that one of the men had walked off with the money and that it was too late to remedy, the lack when they found it out. Many of the people in the audience had heard Miss Anderson sing, and in some instances, according to statements made, had gone to considerable trouble and infronience to be present. They were earnest in expressions of indignant regret at the concert's collapse. Talking with a representative of Miss Anderson, the statement was made that the club president had in hand about one-fourth of the amount due, and he told Miss Anderson that he would have the remainder by 12 clock on Friday. The president was told, according to this representative that the cash and a note, suitably endorsed, would be accepted and the concert given. But the president was unable to get the note fixed up. When the charge was made that one of the members had walked off with the money, the official was asked as to the identity of the individual. This information, however, he defined to give, merely saying, "We know who he is." Authentic information is that Miss Anderson's contract was for $400 for the recital, with $100 paid as a binder when the contract was signed. The contract called for payment of balance, $400, before the concert started. It is reported that the promoters of the affair expressed the opinion that extensive advertising was unnecessary, in view of Miss Anderson's great popularity, and that this ill-placed confidence was cause of a lethargy in the matter of working up the affair that was the primary cause of the fiasco. It is being pointed out however that this policy has failed in every instance, and that an artist's recital, or cardines of his califire or popularity, needs active and energetic working up in order to be successful. there were any excuses or apologies to be made it was up to us entirely or at any rate we should gather Club, 252 West 138th street, makes a statement and apology to the public, as follows. The Marian Andcson Concert The Choral 'Art Society Glee Club deeply regrette the disappointment the public received at dead dollars at the singing of the depreciation that I am making but that organization is very sinful. There are a few facts about this matter that the public should know. Mrs. Anderson was to take $900 for her work, one hundred dollars at the signing of the letter, and three hundred dollars at the letter. The $100 was paid. Money which was to have been spent at $900 failed to come in, but by $15.35 the people were no longer in anxiety and we felt that the can could, could be bridged to the can, could be filled an amount of money to church, which could have been in church, but this was due to the fact that we, placed too much turret on the drawing power of 22nd Annual Reunion OF St. Cyprian's Chapel Rev J.

Rev Cullen made a great error when he said that the church had not been paid for. The money for the church had been paid to the trustees as the agreement called for. Much money has been paid to people who do not deserve it, but we are cheeky enough well within a few days will reclaim every tickle that is out. In the Herald Tribune of June F. D. Perkins reviews the singing of the Glee Club of Howard- University as follows "The Glee Club of Howard, University last night offered a concert in Town Hall under the auspices of the National, New York and Brooklyn Urban Legends. The chorus, which is led by Roy McGee and which has one member whose home is in Alaska, sang a song program of music by Bantock, Vintoria, Peretorina, Procter or and others. It Burleigh represented on the program by arrangements of spirits and other numbers, was scheduled to conduct their spirits." The chorus made a good impression, showing a highly commendable quality of tune, unity, spirit and expressiveness. The opening number, Bantock's "Give a Rouse," went at a rather too lax pace, and there were times that and composers had to work with the Lakers to have could prefied by a slightly firmer rhythm, while a piece worthy showing was made with Vintitoria's "Ave Maria," Peretorina's "How a Rose Lark Blowing," and P.

Harmon Awards for Distinguished Achievement. This is one of a series of seven awards for creative work by colored people which is being administered for the Harmon Foundation by Dr. George Sperry, secretary of the commission of the Church and Race Relations of the Federal Council of Churches. Applications and nominations will be accepted by Dr. Haynes at 105 East 22nd street, New York, until August 15, and announcement of the successful candidates will be made on January 1, 1928. "The award in music includes those for successful instrumental scores for 'engage' instruction in a semble, oratories and operas," said Dr. Haynes, and material need not have been completed within the present year. It must be of outstanding character and a distinct contribution to its particular field. Special consideration will be given in cases where an applainant has received no previous public recognition for such work. "This is the second year of the series of the awards given by the Harmon Foundation for the purpose of stimulating Negro achievement. Last year no award in music was made, since the judges in that field believed that none of the juries had original creative work of sufficiently outstanding importance to merit recognition." Mme. Gertrude Henry Presented In Recital Newark, N. J.-Gerrude Henry, mezzo soprano, was presented in recital at Wallace Hall, the Y. M. C.

ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS BY PERCIVAL OUTRAM We could, not attend the Amsterdam Concert given on May 22 at Rush Memorial Church but we are creditably informed the musical part of the program was well performed, as was predicted in this column in a previous issue. The writer was assailed on his article announcing the concert by a reader who was bitter on the text of it, and was vicious in his denunciation of the writer for publishing such an article. But this reader when pressed for a statement of what was in the article, could could give no coherent statement, and was forced to admit he had "skimmed" it over. A paper was brought and the article read by the writer, but he was tried to read it in his book. Nearly everyone present admitted the article was different what was alleged. Bizotz and blias is a deterrent to any organization The Cotton Club orchestra in Lenox avenue buried, their leader Andrew Preer violinist, a young man of 25 years whose collapse was sudden. Preer came fire from Ohio with his orchestra and was playing at the cabaret for upwards of six months* was well liked by everyone who came in contact, with him. He was also well liked by the management that they raised a very large fund for him. He was sent to Saranaca Lake but without avail. Preer, was brought back to New York where he died. His home town was Akron. Interment was at Woodlawn.

MORGAN A PHOTOGRAPHIST If you have traveled most between New York and Boston, and have used the services of the ork Merchants Limited of the New Haven Railroad in your journeys to and fro, most probably at some time or another during those trips, you have been a passenger in the car of Porter John Hammondy. Oh no, there is nothing quite or eccentric about him; quite the opposite. In fact, he would hardly impress you as being different front the host of other porters who run on this train, unless you happen to be one of those persons given to minute observation. In that event, he might have struck you as being just a trifle nearer and a little more handsome than the others. But aside from these discriminating marks there are no special traits in his manner, or service by which you could single him out; for all the porters of the Merchants Limited you neat, efficient and good looking. They represent the acme in Pullman service, the same as the train represents the acme in railroad service. Yet, in spite of the uniformity, Hammersby is somewhat different from the others. He analyzes your disposition through your face, he tells by your countenance your likes and dillies. Hammersby's hobby is physiognomy, and his favorite subject are his passengers. It is a heart of his that he can tell the characteristics of a person immediately he looks into the person's face. He declares there are few fields so rich for the cultivation of the art as that offered by the traveling public, especially that portion that patronizes Pullman, cara. It is in the Pullman car, he says, that the individual, exemplifies his true character. It is here that the man reveals himself as he really is. This, of course, becomes obvious to the most ordinaryporter, after considerable contact and observation. But not so with John! One glance at the man's face and he can tell whether the man is genuine or spurious; and whether he is of the kind that wants to be known or one of the type that wishes no fuss made over him. This ability to read his passengers by their faces has given him an advantage over his fellow workers. It has also enabled him to acquire the reputation for being one of the most diplomatic porters in the Pullman service. When Mr. B. travels to Boston he invariably tries to get a seat in John's car. He does this, because the first time he rode with him, John directed him to his seat and never approached him again, not even with the customary "brush" sir during the entire trip. He read the man and detected that he was one of those persons who didn't wish to be bothered. Mrs. A. thinks there is no porter on the road like Hammersby. She thinks this because Hammersby discovered long ago that she was one of those women who wanted people to know that she is the wife of a prominent manufacturer. So, whenever he has occasion to address the lady he calls her name in a tone which is anything but inaudible. Asked by one of his fellow porters one day, why he always emphasized the lady's name, whenever he spoke to her. He answered, I read her weaknesses the first trip she rode with me." These are only two of the many instances in which physiognomy has helped him to read the character of passengers on sight. And while this is an inherent gift with him, he has definite ideas regarding the conduct of porters in their contact with the traveling public. Some of his don't are these: "Don't make your conversation with the passenger lengthy, unless the subject demands fullness, and the passenger shows an attentive interest in what you have to say. "Don't volunteer any information about current events, unless you are asked." "Don't discuss your private affairs." "Don't discuss your porters. They are not your porters. They is a subject which most likely you will be asked to use the word in expressing." "And above all, shun the topic of bonds, stocks and financial matters of that sort." "I have listened to porters who engaged themselves in conversation with passengers on all these things; and from what I could read in the passengers faces, my advice to them, is don't." Pretty sound advice, even from a porter physiognomist. Picked Up Here And There In spite of the facts that she is in the land, of jim-crowiwil, Mrs. Roland R. Abrams writes her friends in New York and Jersey for a full time in South Carolina, her native state. She expects to return home the latter part of June. The exodus of travel out of New York on Decoration Day week was comparable with that of the mountain resorts, but due mostly to the backward leach, travel to the mountain resorts was below normal for this time of year. Steam is still being used on the cars in the upper part of the state, so the porters report. It is a difficult matter to convince the ordinary individual that the rich work as hard and sometimes harder than the poor. Yet, if you would believe the daughter of the reputed richest man in the poor woman, even though the type of work may be different. **porter** overheard Mrs. E. Parmalee Prentice, whose father is John D. Rockefeller, sr. say, regularly that her work keeps her up sometimes as late as one and two o'clock, but she thinks she is for maintenance when she has ten minutes during the day to devote to her piano. The person to whom she made the remark inquired as to what keeps her busy. She replied, "Looking after my business; the sick and many of activites connected with life; the sick and the added, I find happiness in doing these things." **Mamaroneck, N. Y.** Mamaroneck, N.

Fifteen well-ward reelection, in the executive committee of the "county commit- It is a complicated coincidence that the younger Negro employee of the New York Post Office are in the male commonly abstinent. The older employee's more context to take upon their insufficiency. They are "bold" to the system. This in due usually, to the fact that their life is now a bar to their participation in activities that promise success in other fields. But this condition is equally due to the fact that they are entirely unprepared from the point of view of education and training. The younger person in a surprising, large number of cases are preparing themselves for substantial efforts. In other fields, that give promise of security, and independence. In these chapters, courage and patience are not the least of their assets. The spare time of the "old life" man is used, for personal enjoyment; their spare money is being saved in banks. Invested in property or mortal ambitions. The spare time of those young chaps is used in the study—for the purposes of knowledge, fair to eventually, free from the extremely unpopular life—to retirement—of the Negro postal employee. Their money that can be squeezed from the family budget (for in a large number of cases, the men so striving are married) is used for tuition and books. They, themselves, are called upon to give up practically all social pleasures, many conveniences and comforts that enhance; the pleasure of living and - perhaps, the greatest sacrifice in case of married man-he and his family must, forego all but the most limited association with each other. To these young fellows of such strong courage and faith—the community overseeing the commendation. They are real real assets; for eventually they become leaders in community thought and in Negro professional and business life. Recently this writer was offered SENATOR DEFENDS AMERICAN TREATY FOR RULING HAYTI Washington. May 11—Strongly indorsing American occupation; in Haiti, Senator Tasker L. Oddie of Nevada, who recently returned from a visit to that country, today pointed out the aid" the United States has "given that country," the Senate did was a member of the Senate, an investigative committee that made an investigation against ago. He holds that the United States should not withdraw until 1936 when the present Treaty ends. Senator Odied holds that attacks on American occupation of 'Haiti are "false" vicious and dangerous", and, as he "indicated when he returned the other day from Haiti, he feels they have, in part at least, proceeded from the Soviet through the US." After referring to the deplorable conditions in Haiti before American occupation Senator Odied said: Purged Haiti of Graft. "Under our occupation and with out assistance Haiti has purged itself of the notorious graft and corruption that existed for generations. It has stabilized its finance and currency, balanced its budget, materially increased its revenue, increased its business and increased its business and economic efficiency, refunded much of its foreign debt, rejected more than $36,000,000 of unjust, pressing debts against it. "It has established peace and prosperity and law, and order, which had not been known for more than 100 years. It has served an efficient sanitary service which has done great work in cleaning up the hitherto filthy cities and towns and in clarifying and improving insanitary water systems and in draining disease breeding marshes.

The subjects of this debate was: Received that the Negro of the present generation should industrial education more than higher education. The offensive nature of the proposition was the Booth of the Washington, School of thought, but more particularly clauses as representing "student organizations". The proposition was opposed by young men representing the spirit of the progressive Negro, more particularly claused as representing "legal research". Although this writer did not have the pleasure of attending this debate personally, certain information was glimpsed from reliable sources that makes the declaration of the Judge, at least amply, the worthy object of raising money for an industrial school in Georgia. The atmosphere was charged—as if were—with industrialism. An official of the school proceeded the debate with a long speech in which he recounted the industrial prowess of the students of the school, the school jerimals of—bushels of sweet potatoes—bushels of corn—bails of cotton—meat, eggs. Finally a partly imposing array, he fact, he was a veritable waitress, edible products for flowers. Each speaker was allotted in the debate proper, ten minutes. Hence the debate settled down to a race of words, the faster talking being able to speak more clearly than the evidence. All would have been fairly evenly balanced, if the affirmative side had not produced a speaker who could pound out words like a machine gun. That settled it I' industrial education, stressed more than any other. Very well. Now we are ready for our next good laugh. By DR. M. ALICE ABBERSON the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association Exercise, Don't Overdo It During the past few years, much has been written and spoken on the value of exercise. It has come into its own, to to speak. Today most health authorities agree that exercise is valuable and helps keep one healthy. But we should all use common sense along with exercise. It is good for most adults to exercise at least one hour every day if you cannot do anything else, walk for an hour. But if you cannot devote a whole hour to exercise, give twenty minutes of your time, or just as much of your time as you can, to do. Do not think you must have one whole hour, or nothing. Furthermore, if you cannot exercise for very long each day, do not think a whole Saturday afternoon or most of Sunday—each week will make up for lost time. That is a foolish way to exercise. It is the regularity of exercise that makes it most beneficial to get some kind every day; they will play a lot of it one day a week, for you will be in better trim. If possible, try various kinds, such as swimming, tennis, baseball, or golf, or just plain walking, for pleasure's sake. Do not allow yourself to indulge in too strenuous exercise if you find it tires you. Use common sense and judgment to choose that which seems to help you without completely exhausting you.

Hayner, secretary of the Council on the Church and Race Relations, Federal Office of Women's Disabled "The Challenge of Race Adjustments." He said: "The World" War gave a tremendous increase to the trend of America from agricultural pursuits to manufacturing, mechanical and industrial change. In occupation was accompanied by a rapid movement of the population from the rural districts to the urban centers. Today between 50 and 60 per cent of our population is an urban population. "One person in every ten of the total population is a Negro. Negroes are part of the great urban-industrial-development. The milieu of northern industrial centers during the World War was so out-studying that it attracted the attention of all observers. This migration: however, off the Negro country, from the south to the north had been going on for more than forty years preceding. In Population Increase In 1920, thirty five states and the District of Columbia had 6,000 or more Negro population. These numbers have increased every year, since the last census. Or conflict, the large majority of the states still have the southern states. While this is true, it is also a fact that the border states like, North Carolina, Kentucky, Ohio, and Indiana are, increasing in their Negro population in provinces in the states farther south; in fact, as near as we can estimate, some of the states, of the far south have had an actual decrease through migration of the Negro population. Another significant fact in population of the south has migrated to northern industrial and commercial centers in larger numbers than the Negroes. Between 1910-20 more than (wier as many people migrated to northern industrial and commercial centers as Negroes. Nogro Workers Suspicious By the field of industry, white and Negro workers by the thousands in all of the northern and border cities, and in many of the southern cities are in keen competition in the same occupations as white workers in the plant. The white worker to a large extent is organized in unions and workers' associations. The Negro to a large extent is unorganized except through his churches. The organized white worker looks like a worker of fear upon the potential competition of the Negro because he believes this means lower wages and less power to bargain and contend with his employer. The Negro worker, on the other hand, because he has suffered at the hands of a past is suspicious of them and cautious, about joining them in any organized way. Ambitious For Education "In the field of education," the Negro is knocking for the door of opportunity to open wide as for other groups. The Negro today is just as ambitious for the education as were the freedmen of the past generation. They are no longer dependent, however, upon mission schools and fund for, that education. More and more Negroes are coming to the conviction that education should be furnished from the school funds. In the south where there are separate schools, a crucial issue is one for a fair division of public school funds. That there can be fair play and hearty cooperation by both races in the distribution of public school funds, been economically illustrated in North Carolina, where during the past eight or ten years a liberal policy has been developed which provides for the education of Negro citizens from college down to the lower school grades as justly as the education of white citizens. "The housing, sanitary, and health conditions in the neighborhood and community units which must be faced, and handled * Church Relations* Another phase of racial adjustment that may be appointed as a challenge to America today is the racial relations within the churches themselves. Nine out of ten churches of churches are affiliated with distinctive Negro denominations and practically all the Negro members of denominations that have both white and colored members are grouped together in separate churches. We do not use practically have a unified division along racial lines within the church itself. The Negro church in history, tradition, organized strength and financial support is by far the greatest institution the Negroes themselves have owned by virtue of its history, the fidelity with which it has been supported, and the enthusiasm it arouses. Most of the channels of group expression are more or less bloody so that the church has expressed it. It is still the greatest agency for racial adjustment for THAI UNTIL GIVE ANOTHER AND TRY TO WEEKLY NOTES FROM INDIA By The Age Special Correspondent For its mounthous, character, the sentences 'baasst' by Mr. Hamilton, Special Judge Larkwin, on the accused in what is popularly known as the Kakoff conspiracy case, hides fair to go down to, history, as a father of the Kakoff conspiracy case. For its parallel, one has, perhaps, to ratrace the pages of history which contain the record of Sir Elijah Iupemy's judgment in the case of Maharaja Nund Kumar. Possibly we are mistaken: why should I lift the veil of history when another judge 'built' in belief a dozen people to death; and another half a dozen to transportation for life in connection with a case of communal roots? The United Provinces thus enjoy the unavenable notoriety of being the Nursery of legal tumulties whose glorious achievements have thrown a wreck on such a system of justice introduced in India, by our alien rulers. We do not for a moment hold that Mr. Hamilton, the triving judge in the Kakori Dacoity case, was more harsh in the punishments he inflicted on the accused than he would have heft, their lot to receive under a semi-savage state. But when we consider that a judge should be the judge of the refined and highly civilized atmosphere of Great Britain, sentenceing three of the twenty-two accused to death, one to transgression for life, and the remaining fifteen (three being acquired) to various terms of rigorous imprisonment, ranging from fourteen to five years we are inclined to think that judge and civilize state alike are not meant with equal confidence when it is a question of self-preservation with them. Just as the detention of hundreds of young men of Bengal, many of whom have contracted fatal malaria, in the twentieth century, is hardly any improvement in the French Basle of the Russian Navy, the German Navy of the spirit in away incarceration, people to Siberia, to other punishment which has almost an element of conductiveness in its severity on a basis formed 'more by interference than on actual evidence' is hardly any decided improvement on the system of justice in the good old days. The rules of evidence were reared less, the temperament of the aman who ad ministered justice of the nature of the 'Negro group' "The Negro today has come to a realization of his own worth and a consciousness of his manhood which demands of his white fellow citizens full respect for his manhood nothing more than country. He wants nothing more than country. He wants nothing less."

Let the deported soul rest in peace. The Story of Two Books. The writer understands that the ban against the entry of two of the Lal Lajhana: Rai's books, "Young India and" and "England's Debt to India," has been lifted. Both of these books were written and published in America. The restriction on their entry into India was never justifiable. "Englands Debt to India" is a study in the economic relations of Britain and India, and consists for the most, part of selection from British authors, themselves. No statements are made in this support by quotations from authoritative British books. Young India has had an interesting history. It was published originally in America, followed by an English edition with a forward by Colonel Josiah C. Wedwood. The police raided the office of "India" (London) and seized copies of the book Col. Wedwood challenged the police in the British House of Commons of London, also as he had comics with him, had besides presented them to several members of the British Parliament. The Government of India prohibited the entry of these books in the country. None has been able to see the wisdom of this step. But whatever may be said about the follies committed in the net weakness of the war days, there was a real reaction for continuing the restriction for more than six years after the Peace was signed.
