Going to the house, Boyer waited until the mother returned from work and upon entering found the child seated on a stool, her hands bound to the bed with tape, her leg tied to the bed by a rope and her eyes bandaged by two handkerchiefs. The mother, Mary Palma, was represented by Bertram Manne, an attorney of Brooklyn, who was engaged by her mother to help. She said the child had been in the habit of eating anything she found, causing her to be ill most of the time. She tiled the child, she said, to prevent her from eating things while she was away.

Sanders WILL Be Deported Unless Bond Is Furnished The Rev. Joseph Nicodemus Sanders of Trinidad, British West Indies, is detained at Ellis Island. He arrived on Steiner Voltaire, July 27, with the expectation of visiting this country for three months, during which time he hopes to affiliate with the National Baptist Convention. Not knowing any one in this country, Rev. Sanders was transferred to the Island as is the usual custom. When questioned, by a Board of Special Inquiry as to whom he knew in this country, he referred to the Rev. Dr. Emerson Fosdick of Park Whom he had read. But Rev. Fosdick was reported to be out of the city, hence he did not come to the ministers aid. Referred To Washington The rage was then referred to, the Labor Department at Washington, for final disposition. In the reply, disadmittance is granted provided one will furnish a surety bond for three months, and one will furnish the necessary bond this week. Rev. Sanders will be obliged to return home without accomplishment, his aims. His ship is due to sail Saturday of this week. Rev. Mr. Sanders is president of the Independent Baptist Union of Trinidad and Tobago. B. W. I., and pastor of the following named Baptist Church, Saint Luke at LaBrea and Saint Peter at Toco... Rev. Sanders is married, and has two children, but on his mission to the United States is traveling alone. He has communicated with several of the leading nineteens of this city since his arrival here, but due to the lack of funds, he has come to his aid. He says, he will be deeply disappointed if he has to go back home without fulfilling his mission to America.

Casper Holstein Due Big Share Of Credit For Success Of 28th Grand Lodge, I.B.P.O.E.of The unusual preparations New York has made for the entertainment of the 28th grand lodge session of the Independent Benevolent Protective Order of Elks of the World here next week, bring public notice the remarkable growth this order had, especially in the North, during the past decade. Not in the memory of the oldest New Yorker has greater preparations been made to entertain a convention in the Metropolis. According to a prominent official something like $20,000 is being spent for recreation, cabbage, and light forming the new lodge. This includes the mile of White way—a specially lighted section in residence in Chicago. Dennis Holstein his absence Dehnis Armstrong was excited exalted ruler, but when Holstein returned to this city he became the third excalted ruler of this lodge. Although the membership will be in New York that ever attended an Elks convention. These delegates will find everything harmonious and the well-known Elks spirit of good will preaching the atmosphere. They will have forgotten or did not know that only a month ago, the order was divided into four that each other throats. A split that would destroy all the labor, of the past 15 years, seemed imminent. Mr. Holstein scoffs at the idea that his diplomacy played a large Split Narrowly Averted. This split was narrowly averted by a few public spitied members in New York and other sections of the country, who worked hard not only to bring about the removal of York Elisi but also to better feeling among the grand lodge officers and the members of the grand lodge entertainment committee. Perhaps no other single member of the order did more to bring about this necessary harmless exalted ruler of Monarch Lodge, No. 45. Mr. Holstein occupies a unique position in, for Elkidom in that he has tremendous influence both with the local lodges and with the grand lodge officers. An Age representative attempted to secure an interview with him the other day, and was told he had stated in talking about the history of Monarch Lodge rather than about himself. To him Monarch Lodge epitomizes the meaning of democracy. Here, in this lodge may be found all, classes of men, from the exconvict to the most prominent citizens of the community. No one is black-balled and the fraternal spirit is exceptionally good. Back in 1906 Harry Griffin, then of Philadelphia, came to 'New York and interested Mr. Hostein into forming a 'club to secure a chair for another lodge of Eikls in Manhattan. When the order was split into two factions one headed by the late B. F. Horn of Kentucky, father of Negro Elkdom, and the other; by Dr. W. E. Atkins' of Hampton, Va. Organized In 1907. The members of Mr. Holstel's club got together at a Raines Law hotel conducted by the late Baron Wilkins on 35th street, near 8th avenue, to select a name for their new organization. The late Johnnie-Morris, of cafe fame, was the one who selected the name. Looking around the room, he saw the mark of a well known brand of beverage, the Fik and below it the citation, "Monarch Of All He Surveys" "Well ourselves the Monarch Elks" he said, and that was the name agreed on. Because of a rule in the order which forbade more than one lodge or more than one number for a city, the Monarch Elks took the same number, as Manhattan Lodge, No. 45. The lodge received its charter and was set apart on March 8, 1927. The lodge, Dr. Thomas M. Johnnie-Morris, of cafe fame, was the ruler, and Mr. Holstein, the first leader, bright. Shortly after forming the new lodge, his stein left New York and took his residence in Chicago. Holstein had his lodge, elected exalted ruler, his wife, Mrs. Holstein returned to this city, became the third exalted ruler of this lodge. Although the memorial ship grew rapidly under his time it was during his administration that the white Elks received the injunction against their colored lodge, only removed a few weeks ago. It was fitting, therefore, that Mr. Holstein should have played an important part in the removal of the injunction. Mr. Holstein scouts at the idea that his diplomy played a large part in the avertin of a spiety in the order. In telling of the power troversy of the past two months he said it was the work of the obligation of Chicago and and over the West to aid in New York that laid the founda- tion for the amicid's settlement of the difficulties. The New York attitude was misunderstood by the other lodges or the county and first the committee headed by Mr. Holstein had hard sleeding in Chicago. But by placing three cards on the table, the support of James Martin, exiled rule of Frames Carbon, the head of the Great Lakes Lodge and such other influential citizens as Col. Marshall, former head of the Bith Illinois-Regiment, Ed Berry, Charles ("Fonyl Charlie") Jackson and Alderman Louis B. Anderson was secured. Big Day For N. Y. Elks. After the New Yorkers had won over the Chickans and in- fultual Elks in other sections of the country, the grand judge offi- cers became more willing to lo- cuss the issues of the controversy and and after ruler, and grand legal officer met, the mite halfway and helped materi- ally in having the injunctions re- moved. It was a big day for the Eldes of New York, when Judge George Taylor jr. granted a temporary stay of 30 days in order that the convention could be held here without fear of molestation. It was still a more wonderful day for the injunction, which was vacated by Judge. Elks of New York were given a bipadife status under the law. Mr. Holstein, part in the removal of this injunction, was the securing of a promise from Hon Murray Hubert, who holds a position in the national body of white Elks that corresponded that held by Hon. Perry W. Howe, in the colored organization that no would open application for the removal of the injunction. This promise was secured through the assistance of Edmund P. Honifman, Democrat leader of the 21st Assembly District. The name of W. T. Phillips secretary of New York Lodge No. 1 (the white Elks of Manhattan) will also be long remembered by the public presence and connubia at the hearing to smooth the way. For the legal proceedings leading up to the removal of the injunction. Since the death of the late Christ Stewart, Mr. Holstein has been chairman of the national committee of the Eldes of New York. Washington, D. C.—On the eve of the assembling o f the 28th National Grand Lodge Convention I. B. P. O. T. of W., the grand exalted ruler, J. Finley Wilson, makes public a statement in which he predicates his reelection as head of the order by a 98 per cent. vote. He recites accomplishments during the past year and emphasizes the nullifying in New York City of the Grattan Law as the most outstanding accomplishment. The statement is released through the Washington Eagle, which Mr. W. Wilkinsowns by Ralph Nelson, general manager, and read as follows: Injunction Vacated. "I consider as the outstanding achievement of the present year the permanent vacating of the in- My election as the next Grand Exalted Ruler of the Illa is assured: Whatever opposition there is, to my re-election, it is negligible. The rank and file of our great fraternity is rallying to my standard in increasing numbers daily. So far we have band wagon that it would not surprise me if I got 98 per cent, of the vote of the delegates to the Grand Lodge: Convention. I have maintained my record in the organizing of new lodges. The intensive growth of the lodges has been beyond expectations. In the matter of new lodges organized it may be illuminating to the public to know that in two instances alone lodges have been opened in Philadelphia and Baltimore, this past year, with nearly 2,000 members and 1,000 members respectively.

Wilson of Washington as grand excalled ruler at the forthcoming 22nd annual grand lodge session of the Order. Mr. Steele was a candidate at the Richmond, Va., session two years ago, and he charges that his defeat at that time was due to the manner in which Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson manipulated the election. The balloting should have taken place at close of the annual report, but this was not done. According to Mr. Steele, the election was deferred until Wilson had chosen to strengthen his fences. It is also charged that the grand exalted ruler interferes with election of delegates by local lodges so that men who are meo on his band wagon are "also rans." Taking Undeserved Credit Then, finally, Mr. Steele declares that Mr. Wilson is trying to take credit for the vacating of the injunction against the Elks in New York, while as a matter of fact the credit for this action is due entirely to the hard work of Counselions, Inns, Juries, Houses and Distinguished Judge, Henry of Philadelphia, who prevailed upon Judge Taylor to act favorably in the matter. Mr. Steele declares he is in the race for a principle and not as a matter of personal ambition; that as an Elie he believes in the manliness, good fellowship and high ideals for which the order stands; and that his race is being made to raise Elision out of the mud of petty politics and sharp practices in which it has been sunk by Wilson. SteeFe Platform His platform includes two 1-year terms for grand exalted ruler; four 1-year terms for the grand secretary; erection of a headquarters building; modification of powers of grand exalted ruler; raising of a defense; fund for the race; broadening of powers of state organizations; making loans of grand landed property; fund of grand landed jobs in race enterprises; naming committee to investigate 'race living conditions; with recommendations; for relief; and a confederation of race secret and benevolent organizations.

A. missionary to Africa. Harayan Parulkar, native of India, taught at the New York City Board of Education also spoke, telling of the differences between the civilization of the East and West.

Prof. Aery told inter-relational activities in the South and of his travels with the late Dr. Booker T. Washington, while Mr. Yergan told of the tribed organizations among the native Africans.

Mller were the other members of the committee. *Miss Gladys* Marshall, president of the Business and Professional Girls Club at Ashland Place Y.W. C. A., left the city Friday August 12; for Camp Maqua Poland, Maine, to attend the conference, 8:30 p.m., 2222 West 22th. This will be the first year coloured girls have attended this conference Before Miss Marshall left she was tendered a surprise party by the club at the home of Miss Georgiana Ladson, 105-41 171st street, Jamacá, N. Y. The member of the club are Misses Dorothy Caraway, Moxelle Crayton, Marcel Dahney, Margaret Allis, Alina Hassard, Edythe Johnson, Geoffrey Hannan, Ladison Deserterall, Newman, Olive Reese, Helen Wade, Bethie Williams, Alberta, Ravallion, and Washington, D. C., said, that racism denies discrimination, that shows that the Improved Business Prototype Order of Elk of the World is being praised in its engineering and manufacturing, and that the sample and justification in the demonstration. And they are region I. The Negro Elks were once ridden in twain and then effected a reunion. The ties are indisable because of the type of man responsible for the condition of the Order. Elks were over going to New York with clean hands, with a whole skin is due to two persons in the major roles Grand Exalted Ruler J. Finley Wilson who gave no quarter in his fight for vacating of the outlaw-king Helen who achieved more than all others combined in getting the injunction permanently removed. Give Valuable Support Behind the scenes but close to principals, however were level-headed men, whose assistance and support were well-migh immeasurable. They were "Bloody" Brown, Hanson and "Bloody" Mestner, New York, associated with Mr. Holstein, and of Robert J. Nelson of Delaware, general manager of the "Washington Eagle," which newspaper is official organ of the RW, owned by the grand exalted ruler, who also is the editor. Mr. Nelson is president of the Maryland-Delaware State Elk Association, actively so, though located in Washington at the 'Eagle' location in the city itself, it was under Mr. Nelson's leadership that the Delaware Negroes sent ex-Congressman Layton in retirement for the manner of his refusal to vote for the Dyer Antifungal Bills in the 1922 elections DePoe Boot also being temporarily enlisted in the resentful black's tidal wave. Avoided Propaganda. During the hootic days of the intra-fraternity rumpus over New York, Nelson and Recorder of Deeds Froe were close to Finley Wilson's ear when required, which led to the decision to override the "unofficial adviser." One one did Nelson use, or give heed to any suggestion to use, the columns of the Eagle for propaganda purposes. Mr. Nelson steadily held that Wilson's position in the premiere would enable him and that "defense" would engender bitterness which would long survive the controversy. This writer learned most authoritatively that an Elks' grand lodge officer was painfully hurt in an automobile accident while enroute to a meeting in the eastern section of his state which had to do with the accident. What it did not difficult to persuade Nelson that the occurrence should not be printed even in the official organ, as 12-wood be seized upon by Wilson's more rabid supporters for purposes of political capital. And the news of the accident was not published in a single news bulletin, but it occurred. So it is because of men like Holstein and Nelson, and they are lionet that the black Elks are indisoluble. New York Citizens Welcome Mrs. Bethune An elaborate reception was tended d Mrs. Mary, McLeod Bethune of Daytona, Fla. on her return from an extended European trip. The affair was held at Laurel Gardens, under management of a citizens committee headed by Dr. Julia P. H. Coleman. All the officers master of ceremonies, Wr. R. W.

The citizens committee with Coleman as comprised Mrs. P Vincent, secretary of Mrs. Emma De Lyon Leonard treasurer; Mrs. T. S.

While many folks were vacationing at the seashore, mountains, or other summer resorts, Mrs. Lucielle Brooks Taylor, of 25 Debevolle place, Brooklyn was hard at work last week raising money for the Lincoln Settlement babies. In less than a week, Mrs. Taylor, who is known as Mrs. Brooks, worked with the milk for many babies who find joy, comfort and care in the nursery conducted by Lincoln Settlement, 105 Fleet place, Brooklyn. When interviewed at her home, Mrs. Taylor said she could not leave for her vacation knowing that others less fortunate than herself had been forgotten. Another contribution of $30 for the nursery was received from Mrs. Jesse Webster, of 1417. President street. She likes like this," said Mr. Elsy executive secretary of the Association "that inspires us to be of more and better service to the people of our community." Jersey City, N. J.-Under the leadership of the Rev. Wm. A. Byrd, pastor the Lafayette Presbyterian Church, Summit avenue and Ivy place, has recently made some radical changes in its altar. The incorporation, under the Precary Act of, the State has been changed and the church has been reincorporated under the Religious Institute of the State. The liminary meeting of the erection of a new house of worship on a site which has been acquired at Forrest street and Ocean avenue. This has not been accomplished without opposition, it appears, for the old board of trustees has been removed from office by action of the Presbytery 'because of their lack of sympathy with Paradise' and from the new board, more amenable to the dominie's ideas, has been named. The new board is composed of Robert S. Hartgrove, president; A. J. Bowley, secretary; W. C. Lee, treasurer; T. A. Spraggett, treasurer; W. H. Williams, W. H. Williams, Fred Smith and Carter Alkins Ask Byrd's Removal But from all appearances, the old board is not accepting deposition without making strong and vehement protest. Some of the strongest and best men of Jersey City are in this group, and they have started a campaign which has its object: the removal of Dr. Byrd from the Lafayette Church pastorate, giving as a reason that "he has outlived his abilities" to the congregation. "These men declare that with a congregation of a hundred active communicants it is folly to attempt the erection of an edifice that will cost some $130,000. They point to what they allege has been a steady dwindling of the congregation under Dr. Byrd, and charge that he has not been able to build up his capacity by reason of his lack of personal friendiness and sympathy with the people. They charge also that he is inclined to give more time, and thought to creating political affiliations, that will be to his personal benefit to advancing the church work. A petition is being distributed for signatures by a group headed by R. R. Abrams of 2355 Hudson Garfield avenue, asking the Presbytery to make a change in the pastorate of Lafayette Church. To Look After 7th Avenue Park Spaces The dilapidated condition of the park spaces on Seventh avenue in Harlem was called to the attention of Department of Parks by Fred R.

C.—Outside of race political leadership circles President Coolidge's "don't choose to" again seek the Presidency is hailed with great delight. Failure of ourselves to organize and vote so as to command that attention which no President of the United States is going to give any group without it is forgotten in Mr. Coolidge's reactions to our unorganized status, and he is faulted for all our troubles. Everybody's speculating as to the man who will get the Republican nomination next year. Undesirable as he would be, however, from the Negro point of view, the "wiseters" see a formidable candidate, potentially, in the person of Speaker Nicholas Longworth, Ohio. And the reasons given follow South, generally. And, the Southern Republicans have for some time borne the same relationship to Republican Presidential nominations that their section bears by its democraïtic primaries to elections in its own bailiwick. So through C. Bascom Slemp, "wiseters" see Speaker Longworth a formidable candidate for success Honorable "Nick" and President Coolidge's erstwhile secretary, C. Bascom Semp, National Republican Committeeman for Virginia, are bosom friends. Mr. Semp is the Nation's foremost smooth and oily politician, a desirable manager for any. Presidential aspirant Just how smooth Semp is may be gleaned from the fact that, though he was bitterly opposed as Presidential secretary by Negro politicians at the outset, he went out of the job with their blessings, a travelling bag token of their esteem, and a love-missile signed by the brethren, from which the Recorder of Deeds made them erase his name, "signed" without his consent and during his absence in West Virginia. Stemp, who is reported to be slated for the Coolidge Cabinet, is credited in high political circles with great influence among and with the Southern Negro delegations, particularly, and with the Greenwood Forest Farms Greenwood Lake Orange County New York Elevation over 1,000 feet.

And, the Southern Republicans have for some time borne the same relationship to Republican Presidential nominations that their section bears by its democratic primaries to elections in its own bailiwick. So, through C. Bascom Slemp, "wiseters" see Speaker Longworth a formidable candidate for succession to the mantle of his late, esteemed father-in-law, four times removed. Then, there's Lowden, whom the brethren somehow like, but wonder if the shadows of the 1920 primary scandals will cast their shadows across the 1928 scene's path. Of course, none seriously considers the opportunist Borah or sorry Watson of Indiana, while Hoover is preferred because of his strict-to-business methods. He would hear anyone with a program and act, if it met his approval; it is impossible for the Secretary of Commerce to ignore a constructive suggestion from my source. One thing is becoming generally diffused mong Negro voters; that is the time is past when any President is going to be moved by sentiment and whether Republican or Democrat, it will be the THE OLD RELIABLE Hotel Dumas In the heart of Harlem—Highest Class Service—Lowest Cost 135th St. & 7th Ave. Phone Brad. 1131 THE CANADIAN HOTEL REID STREET Hamilton Bermuda The Leading Colored Hotel in the Sunny Isles of Bermuda First Class Accommodations Terms Reasonable JAMES RICHARDS Proprietor A BEAUTIFUL SPOT IN THE MOUNTAINS With city conveniences and country comforts.

Too much pressure is on a President nowadays for him to successfully resist it by performing acts of mercy for those numerous enough and sufficiently able to vote and, organize but who fail to do so, fall back-on the Constitution, whose most sacred provision—to vote—they ignore. As for Longworth, the brethren don't care for, Ohioans any more. Spellman, removed-Register of the Treasury, is an Ohioan, was Register on the patronage of posing Frank Willis, self-conscious, windbag, U. S. Senator. Also, Longworth is blamed for the incident of Recorder of Deeds Proe being assigned to speak on a street corner of Cincinnati in the 1926 campaign, while Longworth and the white folks rallied in a nice big warm hall. The race, however, has a great opportunity because of President Coolidge's self-elimination from the contest next year, as the Republicans will need every vote they can lay hold of, especially so if the Democrats nominate Gov. Smith of New York. That this is not lost upon G. O. P. managers is evidenced by the celerity of the Acting Secretary of the Interior in rescinding the order segregating Negro clerks in the Pension Bureau here, of which he got his first knowledge "only when I read of it in the colored newspapers." Negro Authors On Tuskegee Institute Summer School Staff Negro Authors On Tuskegee Institute Summer School Staff Tuskegee Institute Ala.-The eighteenth annual session of the Tuskegee Institute summer school closed Friday August 12, when forty-three candidates received diplomas; ten from the junior college department; and thirty-three from the high school department.

Jones of Western University, Kansas City, Mo., Major Allen Washington of Hampton Institute, and the principal, Dr. R. R. Moton.

Ingram owned the largest body of standing pine timber in the county, and had repeatedly refused to sell it to local lumbermen for a large sum. The bolt struck him in the top of his head and went through his body, tearing his clothing into shreds, and both shoes, were torn into bits when the electricity went out through his feet into the ground. A large hole several feet deep was torn in the ground where he stood. A son of the dead man was walking near him and was knocked to the earth and stunned for several minutes.

Harmon jr., a young colored student who has taken a master's degree from the School of Business, Columbia University, and is a postgraduate student in the same institution the big store operated by R. H. Macy & Co. has no room for Negro employees except as porters and elevator men. When Mr. Harmon was sent to Macy's by the employment bureau of the International House, 500 Riverside Drive, where he also lives, in response to a call for the temporary employment of a "checker," which call was confirmed over the telephone, he was told by Mrs. Ray, who has charge of the Comparison Department, that there was no opening available. Feeling that there was more to the matter than appeared on the surface, Mr. Harmon consulted with Fred R. Moore, editor of The Age, and by his advice, addressed a letter of inquiry to the sales manager of the store, which letter brought a response from Mr. Donaldson, assistant general manager, making appointment for an interview. Color Only Barrier And when Mr. Harmon called on the store official, the latter frankly told him that the main reason for denying him the position was the color of his skin. "We Breakfast, Lunch, Afternoon Tea, Dinner, After Theatre Suppers OPEN ALL NIGHT WISH to thank the Pulpit, the Press, and the Public for your unselfish support given me in the recent crisis through which PORO COLLEGE has passed. No less do I wish to express my appreciation for the many messages of interest and sympathy which have come to me; for the tender spoken word; and for the prayers of the faithful that an Institution dedicated to my race might stand untouched. And I am grateful for the unprecedented demonstration of racial solidarity presented. Your friendly interest, loyalty, and prayers during the recent upheaval have lightened, more than any other agency could have lightened, the way to bigger endeavor.

But we fear that our employees would rebel at having a colored main check up on their work. However, we are very sorry that the lady in charge was not frank enough to tell you this at first." The duty of a checker says Mr. Harmon is to investigate the conduct of the various departments and employees keeping his identity undisclosed, and to submit a written, report of his findings as to efficiency and general fitness of all employees, from heads down, their attitude towards customers, the store, and each other, and other matters concerning their work. As retention of his incognito is an important factor in the checker's work, it appears to be a far-fetched objection to say that "employees would rebel." Mr. Harnison is a son of the Rev. Dr. John H.

Nashville, Tenn.—Tennessee State College is offering the strongest curriculum and faculty in its history when the institution begins its first quarter, October 1.

FOUR _____ I E E N W Y O R K A G E Monday, August 30, 1927 --- their full quota of mental leaders." This indictment of industrial training proceeds as follows: Up to the present time we have concentrated almost wholly upon producing skilled workers for the industries. For that purpose nearly all our schools have been founded. The fact that there are in the United States about three hundred and fifty normal and industrial schools for Negroes but only sixty-eight colleges and universities for them tells the story in a nutshell. Our educational-theory so far as it concerns the Negro has been to produce a race of skilled laborers. Those who disagree with this presentation of the situation claim that it is not fair to say that the Negro has never had a proper leadership. It is an indictment of the 'whole' work of his education, which has been going on for the past fifty years in the various colleges and institutions of lesser-grade devoted to his training. It is confuted by the statement taken from the same booklet that "there may be found banks, stores and business institutions of many kinds owned by Negroes which are as stable and as ably managed as the similar enterprises under an other control." Jim Tully, the one time hobo and prize knighter in his latest book, "Circus Parade" pays his respects to the terrible Mississippi vagrancy law. He tells how under this statute an officer is given two dollars and a half for every vagrant he captures alive. While tramps or hoboes are not often arrested in other parts of the country, if they keep off railroad property, in Mississippi they are hunted like rabbits for the price of two dollars and a half apiece. Upon capture these unfortunates are fined seventy-five dollars, which they have to work out at the rate of twenty cents a day, which takes nearly a year. But there is a joker by which the prisoner is charged exorbitant prices for his clothing, such as three dollars for a fifty cent pair of overalls and seven dollars for a pair of dollar-and-a-quarter brogans, which debts also have to be worked out by the prisoner. The author asserts that it is no uncommon thing for a friendless man to spend several years as a peon in Mississippi. The implication that young people attending industrial schools do not get the intellectual training required for leadership is set at naught by the fact that such graduates are found eligible to pursue academic courses in the leading universities keeping up with their standards to the point of graduation. As its advocates set forth industrial education in not limited to trade work, but places at least equal emphasis on academic studies. The aim of industrial education for the Negro is not only to make its youth self-supporting as skilled workers, but also to be leaders in every phase of community life making for the uplift of their people. How far this end has been achieved is shown by the records of the alumni of Hampton and Tuskegee. The fact of the matter is that both college training and industrial education are necessary to the well-rounded development of the race as a factor in modern civilization. The advocates of both types of education should come to a common understanding as to the relations of each to the cause of racial advancement. There should be no attempt to encourage one at the expense of the other. Rather one should supplement the work of the other in building up for the race a solid economic basis founded on trade and industry and carrying with it the professional superstructure needed to complete the design. Any controversy as to the relative values of industrial education or academic learning is beside the mark and only tends to a confusion of ideas. Both are necessary in order to enable the race to reach its appointed place in the world's activities. This is the manner in which peonage is enforced under the law in Mississippi, so that friendless white hoboes and pramps, as well as black men, are kept in involuntary servitude. While a white hobo might have reason to view the law as terrible he could usually shun the State in his travels, or at least hasten his departure as Jim Tully did. But the black inhabitants without a steady job were bound to become the prey of the official hunters for the two dollars and a half head money. In this book there are several chapters in which the Negro is depicted in unusual characters. One of the most striking of these is Denna Wyoming, the lion tamer, with whom Tully became close friends. His face was described as "defiance carved in ebony." His tragic death resulted from an attack by a blind bear and his funeral was made a theatrical show. Whiteface was another Negro member of the circus, a stake-driver who was made a professional clown by accident. His wanton killing at the hands of a Florida mob of lynchers is realistically told in lurid colors. The incident that led to this outbreak was related in this ironical vein: A social structure based wholly on intellectual training would be topheavy and in danger of collapse. An underpinning of trade and industry is necessary to insure its stability. On the other hand, a society composed wholly of traders and manual workers would lack the finishing touch of intellectual and professional men and women. The leadership of such a group may be evolved from both classes with benefit to the entire community. That evening a colored man was said to have insulted a white woman. He had, intentionally, or otherwise, stepped ahead of her in the purchase of a ticket. WHAT WEST AFRICA WANTS. Nearly a year ago, in the September number of the Empire Review, a British magazine published in London and devoted to the interests of the empire on whose dominions the sun never sets, appeared an article entitled: "What Does West Africa Want?" The writer, W. Tete-Ansa, himself a West African, answered: this question fully and effectively by succinctly setting forth the needs of his countrymen in the development of the natural resources included in the four British colonies of Gambia, Sierra Leone, the Gold Coast and Nigeria. Besides these British colonies, West Africa includes the French, Spanish, Portuguese and Belgian possessions, as well as the republic of Liberia. A white gentleman saw the act. He slammed the Negro on the jaw. The Negro, not knowing his place, slammed the white gentleman back. Another race riot started. Jim Tully evidently knows, his South, and harbors no illusions about its brutal side although we are told he was born of an Irish ditch digger and a country school teacher in Arkansas. His brief reference to the Mississippi vagrancy law, born of personal experience, is illuminating on the subject of peonage, while his instance of how a race riot starts is penetrating in its sardonic simplicity. As George Jean Nathan wrote of Tully he is a writer "who can lay hold of mean people and mean lives and tear their mean hearts out." He has certainly exposed the meanness of legalized peonage as it obtains in Mississippi. While the writer of this article spoke particularly in the interest of those colonies under British rule, his enumeration of their fundamental needs would doubtless apply to all others under the sphere of European or American control. The first concern of the West African, according to Mr. Tete-Anna, is the security of his tenure of his lands. To be deprived of this by concessions to foreign syndicates, means the shattering of his social system; loss of his freedom and reduction to serifdom. This has been demonstrated by the gradual restriction of territory allotted to native occupation in South Africa, where the original owners of the soil have been driven from their former homes by the European Invaders. The next thing the West Africans want to education of the right sort. Complaint is made that such education as has been imparted on the Coast has been OLD CONTROVERSY REVIVED. The old controversy as to the relative values of purely academic education and industrial training in the program of Negro education appears to have been revived by an attempt of the proponents of the former plan to reflect upon the work done by the institutions which lay greater stress upon the trades. In a booklet issued to forward a campaign to raise funds for one of the leading universities for the education of the race in the South lack of proper leadership is assigned as a cause of the present unequal position of the Negro and also most of the woe that has befallen him. It is further limited that these leaders must have an institutional training. Say this critic: "It is not enough that the Negroes the skilled workers, they must have too, exclusively clerical in its nature, preparing the pupils to be clerks but unfitting them for anything else. Schools are wanted to turn out farmers, mechanics and craftsmen. Agriculture is and will continue to be the chief industry and technicians of various kinds are needed for its development, especially engineers and scientists. Roads and bridges are to be built, vehicles and farming implements made and kept in order, the fertility of the soil conserved and insect pests and plant diseases to be fought and overcome. Men of the African race are wanted to do these things, together with schools and colleges to equip them for the task. Increased population is needed for the cultivation of the soil, so as to extract the utmost from its fertility, the country now being thinly peopled and much land left uncultivated. A high death rate, due to primitive conditions of living, retards the growth of population, the chief sufferers being the children. Medical men of their own race, fully equipped by study, are needed to teach the people healthful living and the observance of sanitary conditions. Sanitary regulations which inflict fines for violations are not sufficient to teach this. Doctors, dispensaries, nurses and hospitals are needed to fight disease. In short, as Mr. Tete-Ansa puts it, "we want to live under civilized conditions." It is realized that all this constitutes "a tall order," calling for large expenditures of money, but the writer is confident that the colonies will be able to foot the bill with a little help from Great Britain. The possibilities of increased production in these colonies, seems to warrant the plea made by Mr. Tete-Ansa as a sound investment based on mutual advantage. His presentation of the salient needs of the West Africans is so acute and searching that it might apply with equal force to any primitive people forced to cope with the problems raised by the infusion of European civilization. His methods of adapting the methods of that civilization to native needs is the best way to meet the emergency. As Great Britain's colonies in West Africa are an ever increasing source of wealth it would be the part of enlightened self-interest for the Empire builders to give the West Africans what they want, as a means of greater development of their natural resources. THE QUALITY OF JUSTICE Illustrating the popular conception of justice held by the Negro population, as administered in Southern courts, especially in South Carolina, the Palmetto leader of Columbia reproduced a chapter from a book of "Congaree Sketchers," written by Dr. E. C. L. Adams, a white physician of that city. While these purport to be sketches of the Negroes of the Congaree swamps, located within only a few miles of the State capital, it is questioned whether they are not rather sketches of the whites. The one in question reads: Voice—Way you been, Scip? Scip—I been to de trial. Voice—Who trial? Scip—Un' Fed boy, Jomas. Voice—When dey guy finish? Scip—Dey done finish. Voice—Wha dey do wid him. Scip—You talk like a fool. Ax me what dey guh do wid him. Ain't I tell you dey try him.

He maintained that Dr. Adams was not After printing this primitive picture, the editor of the Leader asked if there is a finer commentary on the so-called justice administered by the courts. He maintained that Dr. Adams was not writing from imagination, but from actual occurrences and that Negroes as a whole know that they stand but little show in the courts, despite paper protestations to the contrary: "As he baldly states, "they simply have no confidence in the juries; and not without good reason. In his sketch "Dr. Adams has faithfully pictured the feelings of not only the benighted Congaree Negroes in this particular aspect, but of Negroes in general." As the editor of the Leader, N.J. Frederick, is the lawyer who undertook the defence of the Lowman family, three of whom were taken from jail and murdered by the Alken mob, he has an intimate knowledge with the ways of the law and the lawless in his own State. With this understanding of the quality of justice as administered in such states as South Carolina, it is readily to be seen why no steps were taken to punish the perpetrators of the Alken butchery. Despise the fair promise to investigate and punish the murderers made by the governor and higher officials, the local grand jury failed to indict any one of the mob and none was brought to trial. The conception of justice in South Carolina courts depicted in "Congaree Sketches" was only too, fully verified in the Lowman butchery. So long as Southern juries are consti- By Bishop W. J. WALLS A. M. E. Zion Church Flatley and adulation lull energy to sleep and betray the noblest virtues. I believe one of the most dangerous tendencies of the people of color is the persistent desire to be flattered and fooled, the American of America in inheritances. When Frederick Douglass and Booker T. Washington utter criticisms upon the race ministry of their time, they were charged with being infidels, race destructionists and materialists, and were forced to see that they were constricted critics and spoke in fearless interest of our spiritual well-being. If I were given my choice of reaction to the recent strictures made by the Mencken upon the Negro ministry, we have the ministry extend him a thank's. This is an epochal incident. No good is accomplished by for ever smoothing down the hair. Before you can remove the flees and filth, the hair must be rumped. An operation gives pain but it defends the hair. Cleansing and healing in all moral ways accomplishmed through annoyance and pain. That is what H. L. Mencken has precipitated in his criticism of the race in his article published in the New York World, in 1872. The article he has pointed out that the New York chance to show the world what really is in him. He has said many a good word for the race in his magazine, The American Mercury, and has pursued a consistent holdup up the brighter side of our race, and exposing furiously our enemies. "Shall we receive good at the hand of God and shall we not receive evil?" Neither should we expect to receive anything different for the first and most incidental criticisms they chance to offer up to our group practice. Do so would be an assume perfection and hide our heads in the sands of dogmatic bigotry. Mencken's article was a little biting and capable of arousing resentment, but it is equally disappointing to find the unanimous voice of the black ministry so sensitive, one-sided in its response. It looks as one-sided as the Negro ministry has on blinkers and elsewhere beyond a self-chosen area of contentment with small achievement. There are great areas of neglected opportunity for the Negro ministry and church. And the ministry would not have its human faults. We could without its human faults in all the race ministries but why should the Negro ministry be afraid to face its faults? Mr. Mencken was esewere when he said that the leadership of the Negro pastor is all for the bad and nothing comes out of them who follow his ministry, but moans, who boo, who the partiality of judgment which, of course, must of all ilk are apt to show, who try to decide universal conditions by incidental and fragmental instances. I doubt that he has had the opportunity to know fairly the Negro ministry. If so, he would have mentioned exceptions and hopeful trends, though greatly isolated among the mineral group. He has heeded the method of the primitive hunter whose adage is "shoot, then investigate". But why should the Negro ministry only show sensitivity upon this score? Mr. Mencken criticized the whole Negro culture and life. He denies that either in art, music or poetry that the Negro has equaled the white man in creative production. So far, we have not seen any evidence of sentiment from either these or even from the jazz writers who Mencken says left for George Gershwin, and Paul Whitman to make a serious matter. Frankly, Mr. Mencken has not taken here the time to praise the Negro for his successes. He is pointing out the distance which the race must yet come in order to win his place as social and political equal of his race, and not made us by Frederick Douglass' rule of starting at the depths from whence we came. He has begun at the known heights which we have not yet attained. Mencken wrote with a controlling purpose and that purpose, I opine, is to stir the race to the fact that equality in the social circle, into which he observes some Negroes have broken in New York, into which he plied effort and increasing merit and in the cultivation of the best gifts in those directions that make for liberal culture, technical genius and productive arts. And Mr. Mencken told the truth. What he said of the Negro ministry was no less true, in the main, than what he said of the race people in other lines. Measured by our former depths the preacher's advantage for which we are justly glad and thank God who cooperated with him. But let the "master" have some tuted in this fashion the quality of justice will be defiled and lynchers and mob murderers go unmolested to repeat their crimes. A Federal law to punish lynching in another jurisdiction where local sentiment will not shield the guilty, is the only immediate remedy. It is needed to save the whites as well as the blacks. here. Our work of building the Ethiopian man into a genuine and competing estate of culture and life has just begun. We have not kept our vision apace with the present needs and trends. We are making the impression today that we are working for the church by which we mean raising funds for paying salaries and building rooms of worship. The great majority of us think that more of the church led through the peoples' emotion. We have attacked the greater tasks of building a program that will commend itself to, the newer and greater demands of the race in his advancing opportunity and complex struggles. To be sure we have done educational missionary and evangelistic work with a degree of credit. With Negro population of the church, and the adults or youth. It has not as a whole developed the message for the times. Statistics show that we are losing not merely our high-brows and youth but we are losing our everyday masses in the centers of the country. Of the twelve millions of the Negro population one has are more members of the church, and of those who are members are being in a conclusive and practical way interested and controlled or employed. We miss the opportunity in rural sections like the Mississippi basin, where there is now poverty, suffering and threatening famine facing two or three millions of our group and church has not been a universal program or hinted upon program of reconstructive cooperation among these victims of the flood. Is it not significant that in seven northern centers that nearly two-thirds or almost 400,000 Negroes out of 630,000 do not attend church? In Harlem only 60,000 out of 175,000 do not attend Chicago 50,000 out of 155,000 only are members of the church and in Washington 40,000 out of 120,000 go to church. In view of these and other alarming facts, how can our mishers defend themselves against H. L. Mencken, Kelly Miller, and thousands of other thinkers, the folly of the church in its attest to meet this flood-side of peril and opportunity in our religious life with our antiquated and generally inefficient methods? The unequipped churches, dead prayer meeting and Sunday sermons that put emphasis upon punishment and reward in the future world and make little or nothing of the complex and increasing necessity of man building and of world building with God Almighty he had endowed us with regions he has given other endregions of our life are a pathetic comment and argue how far we have yet to come. Mr. Mencken-failed to connect the church with his responsibility in the church in his zeal to sanction the new secular leadership. "Like people like priest," the Bible priests like people do not make the people but it is mutual, they make each other. And the priesthood is always the reflection of the stuff that the people are made of and stand for. Only prophets have risen above the sentiment of those lay masses and the priest of the apostle at this time. Lay people have surrendered the church to the preachers and disclaimed responsibility for the failure of the church but are loud in their claims for any virtues of the church where they are associated. Too many laymen are handed down. They do not care how they are made nor how they live. They do not care how their books are bought nor how their secure their equipment. They refuse to see that other peoples place both their advice and means at their feet and then stand by to see and aid in the accomplishment. Our educated group who could make a contribution refuse to do so while they lay blame at the door of the ministry and load the church down with criticisms. They seem restless to give up, and thrills, fraternities and pleasures, jazz and gibberish, materialism and animalism, the spectacular and the glare, press notoriety and the orgies of play, have absorbed the energies and well-nigh ruined the prosperity our lay rego in making contribution to the essential culture and spiritual life of their time. It is time for somebody to tell the Negro who gets his intelligence and secures property that he must help build his own ministry. Either to the church influence or the church school the Negro business man owner than the business man of other races. He demands now adequacy in his pastor leadership and he represents the group that must furnish the means to that efficiency which he demands. Both gratitude to the church and loyalty to the preservation of the race command every forward-looking Negro to become a churchman, for our peculiar need to be able to be spiritual or we lose the chance to make a contribution as a race to the sum total of world building culture. Let the laymen, too, think: And let the Menckens and high-brows preach them a sermon. To uphold the vices for the ministry and The Des Moines Bytander, rejoicing in the honors paid one of its former writers, noted in its news columnus the following: Miss Willia juanita Ewing, Ames Iowa, had accepted the position as head of the Department of Biology at Paul Quin College, Waco, Texas. Miss Ewing is the first colored girl to graduate from Iowa State College of Agriculture and Mechanical Arts where she majored in the field of Science Degree. She is now there working for her Master's degree in that science. Miss Ewing taught biological science at Houston College, Houston, Texas, last year. She is a member of Delta Sigma Theta national sorority, Phi Chapter at Des Moines. The collage of her work as a member of the faculty, has installed new scientific laboortryFiwyp mnew scientific laboratory equipment cost three thousand dollars. That is an instance of individual and educational achievement worthy of note. Women are proving their proficiency in the pursuit of science, as in other lines of progress. Commenting on the arrest of the proprietor of a St. Louis concern, who did a thriving business in selling voodoo charms by mail, the Seattle Enterprise said: According to the indictment he sold "tie-em-down powders" guarded to keep husbands at home, at the rate of $25 for 25 powders; "bring-back powders," to use when the tying down failed, more potent at $50 for 25; "lucky turretie, to keep evil spirits away from fraternizing in liaison and porousing or crap games; King Solomon's wisdom stone "charge-with invisible life." It all sounds attractive, if your mind runs to such things. We may smile at such primitive magic, and yet a good many of us still cherish a lurking belief in the efficacy of a rabbit's foot; a lucky coin, and the touching of wood or some other substance that the man emancied, find it hard to disabuse their minds entirely of a fear of Friday or the number 13. The seller of lucky charms trades on this superstitious vein among his customers and often reaps a rich harvest. Such credulity is a human falling found among all races of mankind. In an editorial headed with the injunction, "Be Consistent," the Colorado Stateman of Denver asserted to veil the vices of the laity who are jointly responsible for these questions get us nowhere. Let us confess our sins together before God and turn back into the road of common-prayer and concerted endeavor for the alleviation of our ills and for the constructive salvation of our group. Heed to the summons of the old Negro spiritual would be practical here: "We will all bow together on our We will all bow together on our knees. We will bow on our knees And will face the rising sun O Lord, have mercy on me." From the foregoing, brethren, I move Mr. Mencken a vote of thanks. Charlotte, N. C. HEALTH IS HERE By DR. M. ALICE ASSERSON the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association Include Mercurochrome Or Iodine In Medicine Chest When William falls and scratches his knees so that they bleed profusely, or cuts his finger while playing outdoors, do you know the safest and best treatment to give him? The essential thing, of course, is to prevent infection in the wound. The correct treatment is to apply iodine or mercurochrome as soon as possible. Iodine will sting for a moment, but not for long. Theseants will help to kill germs of infection that may have entered the wound. It is better not to wash the cut or scratch with tap water. Even water which looks clean and may seem to be pure, sometimes contains the harmful germs of infection. If the cut is dirty, boil some water and when it is sufficiently cool pour it over the wound. Then apply iodine or mercurochrome. The latter does not sting and may be secured from your druggist in a two percent colostrum. Even if the cut or scratch is slight, it should be bandaged. Use a sterile gauze—never a soiled piece of cloth or a dirty handkerchief. Have your medicine chest equipped with a fresh bottle or a two percent solution of mercurochrome. You will find them useful in many emergencies, particularly if you have children who like to play in it and get cut or scratches while playing outdoors. NOTICE! CORRESPONDENTS Please have your news items in by the morning of each week. Articles raining on fice later than Tuesday, will appear in the following weeks issue of the paper. that the practice of residential segregation had been reversed in that section. It said: To our utter dismay and amazement, however, we have learned recently of a move among certain Negro property owners to exclude white residents from certain residential sections in East Denver and to refuse to rent them property, even though importted to do so. The Negro property owner who thus proceeds is indeed treading upon dangerous ground, and ground filled with pitfalls and entanglements. The idea of residential segregation is not dead in any sense of the word, for our enemies are always looking for an opportunity to break windows in a new place. And certainly no better manner of fattening frogs for snakes could be adopted than for Negroes to put in successful operation the very thing they have been bowling against for years. The Statesman admitted that sometimes the worm turns, but it questioned whether it is always for the best. In view of the fact that Denver was once threatened with a segregation ordinance, the precedent set appears to be dangerous. Discussing the proposition as to whether the churches are gaining or losing in membership and influence, the Star of Zion said: According to the statistics many of the larger denominations are losing members. One hundred thousand and Congregationalists can not be found; the Methodist Episcopal Church does know where four hundred thousand of its members are. Among the colored churches, the Baptists appear to be the only denomination that is making substantial numerical gains. The statistics indicate that Negro Methodism is not holding its own. Although they may be different in quality and character, yet similar conditions obtain to a more or less degree in most churches of whatever group. However, the situation is so severe that the church is deeper note of solid evangelism and recone-ration to Christian ideals. If evangelism is going to help the church to keep the present members and to add new ones, it is high time to try it. But the church must live up to its ideals and command the respect and devotion of the people. Commenting on the increase of defalcations among public officials, the Palmetto Leader of Columbia said: Reconstruction days in the South have been referred to as the good old days of stelling officials. But the radicals have been out of business 50 years. However, it seem that their did not steal stelling officials. Recently premium railroad bonds by sucrey companies have been increased in South Carolina, "because of increase in loss ratio extending a period of years," they say. The state governments established under Reconstruction were undoubtedly responsible for much waste of public funds, partly due to dishonest officials but also on account of lack of training in public affairs. Nevertheless, these untrained officials gave the South greater educational facilities and a better system of popular government than it ever had before. The Atlanta Independent made a moving appeal to the Christian conscience of Atlanta for a just opportionment of school funds raised by the issue of bonds. It said: An issue of $3,500,000 was authorized by a vote of the people for educational purposes, the money to be allocated so much per capita per child school age. The money was net to be divided upon racial ines, but the money was to be a common fund equipping and arranging the city school system in which every child would enjoy equal opportunities and benefits without the thought of Negro frightened, yes, alarmed, then found out that the board of education had allocated him $36,600 for additional school room equipment, and that more than $2,000,000 of the fund had been allocated for additional school room equipment for white children. Thirteen new school houses planned for white children and not one for Negro children. This allocation was made in the teeth of the fact that the Ashby Street School had burned down and not rebuilt, every Negro school the city offered to do so, and triple sessions each day. Four out of six night schools had been closed, and that the Negro child was using not more than an average of four hours per day in day school. During the bond campaign we were promised two junior high schools, and additional elementary schools; double and triple sessions were to be cut out, and the teachers paid better wages, but as soon as the bonds were pur over and validated our white welfare program we joined their colored neighbor and proceed to appropriate unto themselves eight per cent. of the bond money and 100 per cent of the increase in efficiency and equipment; and against these wrongs ... long suffering, loyal and patriotic people protest and appeal to the Christian conscience of Atlanta to redress their grievances, and to give them simply their rights under such an opportunity to educate their children to them good citizens and contributors of character, wealth and respectability to the community life. The most elementary principles of good faith and self-interest should dictate a more equitable division of the educational funds.

The air everywhere is filled with the passionate outbursts of the eloquent writer, throw off restraint of every kind. Folks in the world everywhere refuse to be governed. They want to be free to do as they please without barrier or limitation. The world has the notion that government spells fetters and chains. The people in the world cry for freedom and emancipation. All these years we have been subject to authority, we now interpret it bondage and slavery. We deprise it We reject it The public platform and the printing press aid us in spreading propaganda against existing laws. Our theory is branded as red, and are rated as liberalists. Once it was a crime to be a traitor. Now we are hailed as heroes and martys if we cuss out the government. Rebel, Riot and Ruin. This rebel riot and ruin spirit was not born on American soil. It was cradled first in heaven. It had its origin among the fallen angels, and sprang out of the heart of Lucifer, the angel prince. Ezekiel 28:13-16. Isaiah 14:12-16. Revelations 12: 7-11. From a beginner with the wry that beginved first set foot upon terra firma, man has been taught rebellion and lawlessness. In the breast of every human that will let him, Satan plants a contempt for rule. Every diligent pupil of the devil defies authority. And the saddest fact of all that the American nation leads the world in lawlessness—with the poorest exception of Italy. The American cities are rampant with crime. The chief magistrates of our land violate the law they are sworn to uphold. The governors of many states have court records and allow the court officials to review the Illinois town was recently arrested for stealing from freight cars. When men in high office break the law, we should not look for less in the people. And when the majority of American citizens are in the place where they utterly disrespect a virtuous authority, then our proud commonwealth is a lamentable (alitre) A Plea for Law. I plead today for law and order! I plead today for respect for regulation! We organize a state law committee, we cloth men with power to administer the affairs of that state. How can we afterwards turn on our heels and despise the whole mercy because it punishes us. "If our friend or relative gets into the tolls of the law, we immediately send around the word that he is one of us, he belongs to our group, he is our kin, our friend, our partner, and he must tree. We express our sympathy and protecy by gathering mass in demonstration and storm. We call for a strike and a boycott. We shoot down our enemies, and with shell and bomb we waste and slay the irresponsible. If a friend is an egewiness to the violation of a law, he reduces to testimony in court to uphold it. If our friend is under imprisonment we shield him. If our friend is in trouble we are up the wheels of legal machinery and make it hard to secure a conviction. If our friend is condemned to die we seek technicalities to delay execution of sentence, and in the meantime, we stir up a worldwide feeling of sympathy in order to parallel justice. We are blind indifferent to the majesty of the state and cruelly and wrecklessly satisfiate peace and nation of a whole state and nation peace and nation of one we are particularly concerned with violates the law. This is a nation of rice and fight. It is not a nation of law and order. We don't respect law; we don't honor statutes; we care a precious little about government. Upon the highest pretext we break covenshields contracts, agreements, and promises. We do as we please, and the forces around us dare not interfere. Our feelings dictate, because we have a cast reason, and self control to the We make laws, but we must remember that there is no force or power back of these laws stronger than individual self-control. The police force, the prison cell, and the electric chair are the supreme powers behind the law. In a staple government the self-controlling*body of citizens that government must be the dominant factor. Where this is absent, popular democratic government has disappeared. Whatever breeds discreetness for that government is sure to result in the final breakdown of society in that community. First Emmanuel Church At the 11 o'clock service Sunday, Pastor Bolden preached from the text: "His Lord said nt ohm, Well done, thou good and faithful servant, thou hast been faithful and faithful, thou ruler over many things, enter thou into the joy of thy Lord." St. Math. 25.21. Theme: "Make Good Use of Your Gifts and Qual- able, be Faithful to High Ideas." Pastor Boden said: While there are many lessons that may be drawn from the text, the one presented has to do with the gifts that one has. the way they use their gifts the work they do, and the reward for the same. Industrial people sell their labor by the hour, the day or month, for a certain amount of money as if the most of them get only the satisfaction that comes from the upkeep of their homes and their personal needs for clothing and food. Another group of people who may be classified under various heads of useful activities, sell their thoughts, ideas and plans for similar pay. There are still many heads of human development, who take their minds for giving service, that they may receive pay through the plaudits of the people. Then there are others who begin and end all of their conscious activity with the thought that they are doing service in the kingdom of our Lord the Emmanuel; and they regard their thoughts, ideas, life, property and means of life. Hence they are faithful over the past Lord's promised land illustrated, by parable to make them ruler over many things. It is unfortunate today that while our educationa and religious systems start out with training children and young converts into doing little things, that they magnify the achievements of men and women who they claim have done and are doing big, things, to such a degree that the youth, and the children, in general think that their efforts must be payed for do something that shall put them on the limelight bring to them applause, honor and remuneration. With this before their minds, they become indifferent to the value of doing well the little things and being constant and faithful in the least. They become careless and sloven and unreliable in their work and acquire bad habits. They have no high ideals and they are not in touch and harmony with our Gods will and purpose in their lives. They realize their responsibility to our Lord Jesus Christ the Emmanuel. Who experts them to make good use of the few things that have been given them. Think of the farmers, planting, cultivating and gathering their crops. Think of the miners, deep down in the dark bowels of the earth, shut out from pure air and sunlight living in damp water holes hours and days at a time that coal and metal for the various uses of miners might be brought up. Think of the first man on the high seas taking their lives in storm and calm; that others might have sea-food. Think of the vast army of the lowest 'down soldier in the industrial and military life of nations. Think of the great army of scientists in their various laboratories testing foods, experimenting with germal gases, electrical energy, all for the purpose of prolonging marx's life and bringing about a happier environment. Then let us realize that humans are greessive unfoldment rests upon the fidelity of these and the true teachers of God, who is Jesus Christ the Emmanuel. People like these may be regarded as being faithful over a few things, and they will, are long, hear our Lord say: "Well done, those good and faithful servant, thou hast been faithful over a few things, and thou make the many things better than into the joys of thy Lord." No one can perceive the power and glory that is wrapped up in the words, "make these ruler over many things." And we can only have the "joy of our Lord the Emmanuel," when we have shared into His sorrow in this world by experiencing sorrow, ourselves, ourselves, liberal and kind even in the midst of foes and oppositions, in fact he faithful till death and our Lord the Emmanuel will give us a crown of life. Let us love Him who is the perfect pattern of His own teaching and the world's supreme ideal, whose presence is among us. And the Sunday school was opened by the superintendent, Miss Maggie-Johnson, Dr. Bolden smoke to the many gathered. In the evening in the absence of our pastor, Rev.

YONKERS has told the people that lighter services may be expected until the summer is over. For nearly twenty-one years the pastor has served this church, and this is practically the only summer that he has spent the month of August on the field. This is necessitated by the conditions at the church, by having the church We are, however, having a most delightful time, because the people are loyal, and the surroundings are congenial. The activities of the church, for this season of the year, are better than ever. All seemed keyed to the higher things that are in store for us. Some of the members are away for the summer, and this makes a difference, but the church must be ploidial. The B. Y. P. U. school meetings and Sunday school keep up their work, with little change in attendance and interest. Sunday the people came in large numbers to the morning service, when the choir poured out its soul in inspiring song, and the pastor day day day day, the attendance was small, owing to the down pour of rain at the hour of service, but those who were out enjoyed a good sermon by the pastor. This week Group Merey of the Ministry Society will have a midnight bus ride to Coney Island. Carrie Lang, assistant superintendent of the Sunday school has gone away for about two weeks, to have a well earned vacation and West Virginia Mine, V. E.

From this ancient event the Moravian Church dates the inspiration which led to its famous worldwide missionary program. Miss Ellen Bishop, a member of the church, made a special and fervent address on the relation of the spiritual revival in 1727 to the Moravian mission work in the West India. The morning sermon was preached by the pastor, the Rev. F. P. Storker, from the text Isaiah 51:1, in honor of this particular celebration in the church's history.

Rush Memorial Church The special sermon to the mid-summer congregation preached by Dr. Oliver last Sunday was thoroughly enjoyed by all present. The subject, "Our Crisis"—text: Esther 4.14—was divided into two important parts. (1) Ministry of domestic life, and (2) Ministry of the church in its industrial life, as a duty of the church, said Rev. Alexander H. God of the authority of God to stand up for justice and for the right. God is a God of justice as we as of love and we cannot separate the two characteristics. The ministry of Christ was ridiculed just as is the ministry of the present day, but the spreading of the gospel stands out as the highest and best principle by which man may be taught to treat his fellow man as he wishes to be treated. The lives of people is true religion. A number of visitors were present, including students from Livingston and Dinwiddie Colleges. Next Sunday at 3, Rev. P. A. Price of Mother Zion and Mother Zion's Praying Band will have charge of the service. This is an order to raise money for the Oliver Circle in order to raise money for the Fall Rally. Bridge St. A. M. E. Church "Our Conduct under the cross of Christ will determine the brightness of our crown of righteousness," was the central thought advanced by the pastor, Dr. Edward Ernest* Tyles, during the course of his career. It was communion Sunday and an unusually large congregation was present. The pastor spoke on the theme: "The future Prospects of the Life of Our Final Conscience." The Text was Romans 8:18, "For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be accepted with joy which shall be received in us." Dr. Tyler stressed the point that the whole of our life here is a struggle to do right, especially so as Christians. But the one connotation is that real Christians are children of God, and are heirs and joint-heirs with Him, hence we will be able to suffer, to struggle, sufferings, and sadness. We should endure this as good adders, and at no time take our hands off the oars, hoping to "float into glory without any effort." At the evening hour the pastor filled the pulpit. He! delivered a speech on the Boards of 70 the church. Despite the inclement weather the following presidents of the several boards and a delegation of ushers were present; Walter Blenheim of the senior male board; Henry S. Robinson, Jr., of the young men's boards; Hattie Brown, of the young men's Ushers Board and Ethel Eastmond of the young ladies board. "Given to hospitality", the latter clause of the 13th verse of Romans, was the basis of Dr. Tyler's talk to the ushers. He stressed the thought that the ushers are the hosts of the church and can do home in the church and thereby aid in building up the church. All ushers should remember that they are in a position to make a favorable impression for their church and while they are in a position to be seen they should forget self and always think of others and thereby render a great service as doorkeeper. Two persons joined the church. The class-leaders of the church of which John McCoy is president are making preparations for a "Class Reunion". According to brother McCoy it will be the "biggest thing in the history of Blessed Church". The flowers in the pulp were in memory of the late Fred Bryant and were given by his widow, Mrs. Frances F. Bryant. Nazarene Cong. Church Wilfred Rankin-a recent graduate of the Union Theological Seminary, who will go abroad to study fillle the pulpit morning and evening. At the morning hour he delivered an unusual address on the Couple of Faith, on which he drew many vivid illustrations from various phases of life. His subject of the evening hour was, "What is the Meaning of Life?" Those who participated in the community summer vesper service were John McCoy, the Miss Haines and the Miss Hines and Miss Elizabeth Balfour. Among the visitors to the Church Sunday was Miss Bessie Bishop of Chicago. Boyle Mem. A.M.E.Z. Ch'ch Notwithstanding this is vacation season, our attendance has shown a steady increase and now that this season is near its end we are hopeful for an even more fullsome attendance. Sunday at the morning hour we were favored with a great message by Rev. Dr. Miles of Iowa, taken from Mathew, 4 chapter, 19 verse. His theme was "Christ's Entrance to Men." 7:45 He delivered the first of a series of sermons on "Niven Roads That Lead to Hell." The regular meeting of the church Aid Society will be held Tuesday evening. This society rendered signal service during the service of recent origin, If. M. Spear is its president and Sister Sarah Moore, secretary. Fleet St. Memorial A. M. E. Zion Church At "Fleet Street A. M. E. Z. Church on Sunday morning, of which Rev. W. C. Brown is the pastor. Rev. J. W. C., pastor of Mt. Lebanon A. M. E. Zion Church, Elizabeth City, N. C. spoke from the text, "My Son, God Will Provide". Dr. Chase is possessed with a rare oratorical gift, readens his words, and command of language, and the large congregation enjoyed this eloquent message which brought life and light to all the worshippers. Dr. Foster Burnett, a prominent physician, of Wilmington, N. C. just returned from Germany where he has been for several months making some special observations, worshipped at this service and was presented at the congregation Rev. I. N. Siawaw at the visitors attending this service. The church school was held at the usual hour, and it is evident that unusual interest is being manifested in all departments. Miss Cleopatra O. Andrews of William Burrell were among the many visitors who were given a hearty welcome to the school. At the evening service, Rev. W. P. Dockery, member of the New York Annual Conference of the A. M. I. Church was the speaker. It must have been their vacation on Sunday. While the choir is vacationing for a month the church school choir will occupy the loft. An enjoyable time was spent on the school outing last Thursday and financially it surpassed any预估. All of the Holy Communion will be administered next Sunday evening at 8 o'clock. Refuge Church of Christ Last Sunday at 12 noon, Elder Lawson spoke from 1st Peter 9:1-2 "Likewise, ye wives he in subjection to your, own husbands; that if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the chaste conversation coupled with fear of the outwardized the outstanding features and strong appeal of a holy life. A chaste life, said Elder Lawson, runs parallel in appeal with that of Calvary. The appealing and drawing power of the life and death of Christ should compel men in every condition of life to be saved. The after-noon service was held by the missionary Elder Lawson preached from Isaiah 5:1-5, "Who hath believed our report, and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed? etc. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed." Eldw. Lawson explained this prophecy in its actual setting, touching Jesus Christ, and what His life death and suffering was and is to the nations both then and now. So many people take this chapter from sin only; but it is a fact, health for the body was accomplished in the act of Calvary, as true and real as sabration for the soul. The believers faith and health for both soul and body is in the suffering and death of Christ. Princeton, N. J. Princeton, N. J.-At the eleven o'clock services, Mrs. Ruth Vick, wife of the Rev. J. O. Vick, pastor of Mt. Pisgah A. M. E. Church, spoke to a fair sized audience which included few visitors. She gave a sage talk on missionary work. The Mite Missionary Society met in Bordentown on last Thursday and Friday. Rev. and Mrs. J. O. Vick, Mrs. Pope and Miss Dorothy Hinds motored to Bordentown to attend the Mite Missionary meeting held there. The Rev. S. T. Boyd, presiding elder of the New Brunswick district will preach at the Mt. Pisgah A. M. E. Church on Sunday at the evening services. Mrs. M. S.

The series was scheduled for five games, but rain caused the cancellation of the final contest and caused disappointment to thousands of fans that had turned out to see Joe Williams, captain and former manager of the Lincoln Giants, pitch. Williams had beaten the Lincolns in the first game, of the series at Pittsburgh and was scheduled to pitch the last. A demonstration had been planned in his honor as he went out to the mound but this had to be uncoaled also. Leroy Wilkins and bishop of his New York friends brought him back to Harlem and he spent the remainder of the afternoon and evening as their guest. It was the astute generalship of Cum Posey that gave the Grays the entire series. Every game was close but Posey kept the fighting spirit of his team at such a pitch they were always able to come through in the pinches just a little better than the Lincolns. The first game was won by a score of 3-2 on Friday and on Saturday the largest crowd to ever witness a series between two colored teams in Pittsburgh saw two rocking games. The first went ten innings and the second lasted eleven innings. Both were won by scores of 4 to 3. At Protectory Oval, Sunday, the Grays showed more oval strength than any team that has been to this park all season. Posey was on the coaching line at all times and kept his boys hopping. They hit the ball hard and fielded brilliantly. Gisentaner, who pitched for the Lincoln, was handicapped by poor support, especially by Montalvo, who was playing first base. Montalvo made two costly errors and there were two other errors by Lincoln players during the game. The score follows: Homestead Grays ab r h o a Graham, rf. 5 1 2 1 0 M. Harris, 2b. 4 0 2 3 0 V.

Boston heavyweight was wiped out of the pugilistic picture Monday night by George Godfrey, giant Negro battler, when he was knocked cold in the first round at Shibe Park before a crowd of 18,000. The bout went only 1 minute 25 seconds. Maloney, who shared honors with Jack Sharkey until the latter finished him in the fifth last May, was crowded back against the ropes as the "Black Shadow of Leperville, Pa., shot over two wicked lefts. Maloney wilted under the first one and went backwards. As he sagged Godfrey sent another triphammer left and the Boston fighter fell in a heap on his face. Referee Tommy Reilly, who officiated in the Dempsey Tunney bout at the Sesqui Stadium last fall started to count over Maloney. The giant Negro fighter, weighing 233 pounds and soaring 6 feet 3 inches, jumped back to his corner and folded his arms. At ten Maloney was still stretched out. Godfrey then ran over and helped Reilly and the rivals seconds pick Maloney up. It was at least three minutes before Maloney was revived. The crowd rushed out of the stands to congratulate Godfrey. They sparred before the sudden knock out. Maloney reaching Godfrey with hard lefts and rights, but Godfrey merely bided his time and waited for the opening. What little boxing was done before the finish was all in Maloney's favor. The Bostonian weighed 202. Ed Bolden Elected Sec'y-Treas. of The Eastern Col. League Ed Bolden Elected Sec'y-Treas. of The Eastern Col. League Atlantic City, N. J.—At a meeting of the Commissioners of the Eastern Colored League here on August 13, Edward Bolden, former head of the League, was elected secretary-treasurer to fill the place left vacant by the resignation of James J. Keenan; when his team, the Lincoln Giants was dropped from membership several months ago. The Commissioners re-arranged their schedule so that a number of postponed games might be gotten in. They decided to discontinue the games at Bradley Beach, N. J., because of difficulties with the management of the park.

"The Love Thrill" At The Roosevelt Theatre One of the youngest directors of the screen, Millard Webb, in less than three years, has taken his place as one of the foremost picture makers in the industry. His latest directorial effort will be on display here at the Roosevelt theatre, Saturday, Sunday and Monday in "The Love Thrill," the Universal-Jewel production starring Laura La Plante. Webb was born in Clay City, Kentucky, and received his education there in Los Angeles. Out of school he tried acting for a few years both on the stage and screen but gave it up because he decided he was not fitted for it. His next step was to begin a long course of study in the production of motion pictures. As a cameraman and an assistant director he studied every possible technical and mechanical angle of picture making, worked with as many directors as possible to learn dramatic technic and story construction, so that when his first opportunity came to direct he was exceptionally fitted for it. His first great success, although he had made other highly successful pictures, was "The Sea Beast," the John Barrymore picture from Herman McDelville's "Moby Dick." Visiting Elks Will Find Most Elaborate Program At Savoy Visiting Elks Will Find Most Elaborate Program At Savoy The Savoy Ballroom has been preparing for many weeks to take care of the thousands of visitors from all over the country, who are expected in Harlem next week to attend the Elks Convention. Dozens of inquiries have arrived at the Savoy from East, West, North and South, requesting reservations from persons who have heard all about Harlem's famous ballroom, but who have never as yet actually seen it. The Savoy management, in anticipation of receiving these guests, has a program in store which will thrill its patrons during convention week to their finger tips. On Monday, a Mardi Gras carnival will take place, alive with interest, soft lights, beautiful music lending their enchantment to a merry reverie of old and young folks scurrying hither and thither to see and hear all, the exciting attractions taking place. On Tuesday, regularly Savoy's Clown Night, the program will be augmented to include a new group of clowns who will entertain the crowds with new and funner antics than heretofore and that is saying a lot for many of Savoy's friends recall with chuckle the screamingly funny doings that occur every Tuesday night. Wednesday will witness the Feature Prize night with a score of lovely gifts given away free to every number called. The gifts during convention week are of a special purchase and comprise some gorgorous things any man or woman would be glad to have. Then Then on shrdhuaturionrigeen Then on Thursday comes the vaudeville show in addition to all the other marvelous attractions. Six Big Headline acts will do their stuff. Friday is Club Night, when all good fellows get together and talk over old times, new times and good times—when friends meet in an environment second to none in town. Of course Saturday is the big Of course Saturday is the big if importance attends the Savoy on night of the week. Most everybody Saturdays, but with the wonderful Bathing Beauty, Contest taking place with two score of the most beautiful girls in town parading before you striving to win the remarkable cash prizes there is no wonder, Saturday is by far the most popular night at the Savoy. With the Sunday dance beginning at 3 P. M, and continuing to 2 A. M, making 11 hours of continuous dancing for one admission, there is plenty of good reason why so many like to make Sunday their day of pleasure. There is no cover charge at the Savoy, only one small admission price which covers everything, sixty cents on weekdays and eighty-five cents on Weekends. A trip to the Savoy during the Convention week will certainly prove interesting and thoroughly enjoyable. Bill Robinson To Be Starred In Show At Lafayette Theatre Arrangements have been made with the Keith Albee vaudeville circuit that will permit Bill Robinson, premier dancer to appear in a show which will be hinted around him for presentation at the Lafayette Theatre Robinson, who is now playing at the Palace Theatre, is one of the most popular acts on the Keith circuit. Leanard Harper will stage the revue, which is scheduled for presentation at the Lafayette for the week of September 5. "The World At Her Feet" At The Lincoln Theatre What must a clever woman lawyer one who literally has "the world at her feet" do when she finds that she is losing the love of her husband. This delicate problem is handled by Florence Vidor in a new Paramount picture 'The World at Her Feet which comes Thursday to the Loews Theater. How this puzzle of marital relationship is met and solved is said to offer one of the clearest fares ever brought to the screen. Mrs. Garvey's "Brown Sugar" Scores Big At Lafayette Theatre The biggest laugh show that has been at the Lafayette Theatre in a long time is being presented by the management of that theatre this week. The show is "Brown Sugar" and was written by Mrs. Amy Jacques Garvey, the first wife of Marcus Garvey, and Sam Manning. Manning is also the feature player, along with Emmett Anthony. They furnish some real comedy and kept the Monday night audience in a constant uproar. The music for "Brown Sugar" was written by Sam Manning and Porter Granger. Manning is the author of the song that bears the same name as the title. The dances were staged by George Stamper. In addition to the very good comedy work of Anthony and Manning, several of the other principals received generous applause. George, Cooper was good as the Indian Prince and Margaret Johnson and Angeline; Lawson were good in their vocal numbers. There was a well selected chorus and the costumes and scenery-by Mrs Garvey was also good. The feature pictures, "The Midnight Watch" for the first half of the week and "Cradle Snatchers" the weekend are both good. New York Teachers Praise "Africana" Three teachers in the New York City school system who recently saw Ethel Waters in "Africana" the sensational revue which has held its own on Broadway at Daly's 63rd Street Theatre since early July, have come forward to praise the show. Miss Helene B. Grant; sister of Miss Frances Grant, head of the English department at the Borden-town Industrial School, says: "Happily 'Africana' is a colored revue in the true sense of the term; a term which is all too frequently stretched to include everything from the Scylla of Sepia Vanities to the Charybdys of Lafayette Ministrels, at the same time neglecting that humor and lyricism which is 'the birthright of the race.' Robert J. Douglas, story teller and teacher, says: "With Miss Waters as headliner, who is a specialist in her own speciality, assisted by artistic geniuses like Louis Douglas, Donald Heywood and the Goines dancers the show is one of the best productions we have seen. Miss M. Joosephine Wooten, formerly of Cleveland, where she taught in the public schools but now a teacher in New York, says: "I am glad to say how thoroughly I enjoyed "Africana". I found Miss Waters her usual or perhaps unusual laugh-provoking self. The chorus showed the careful training that has been so noticeably lacking in other revues. The team, Glenn and Jenkins, cannot be equaled for real fun, and I must not fail to mention the orchestra, whose work was too good to pass without comment."

Troubadors Make Bow At Alhambra Theatre Monday the festivities of Elk's Week will be enhanced by the dedication of the Alhambra Theatre to its new policy for the fall and winter season of 1927-28. The big theatre at Seventh avenue and 126th street has come under the control of the Troubadours, who will undertake to do for Harlem somewhat the same service as the Theatre Guild has done downtown, excepting that the field of the Troubadours was in the realm of mirth nd music. Extensive renovation of the building has left nothing remaining from previous managements except the walls. Monday, August 22, the New Alhambra Theatre begins its career with "Glorifying Bronze Beauty" as its slogan. The cast of the first show has been kept secret and the only information the management will give in this connection is that it will be both gifted and numerous. Al Watts is stage manager; Edgar Hayes musical director; George Stamper, 'director of dances; and Bob Martini, general stage director. The costumes and scenery are new and costly. The musical comedies and revues to be presented by the Troubadours are all specially written by its own staff with a view of affording clean amusement that will command it to the best families of Harlem. As a side line to its activities the Troubadour's hope to aid in discovering and developing new talent as well as offering establish-favorites a splendid metropolitan setting for their efforts. The policy of the house will be a double attraction at each performance—the musical production and revue and a feature motion picture. Each program will be 3 hours long and the prices of ad- day are a new feature each week an entirely new musical comedy or revue will be given and the photoplays will change twice a week. Vo-De-O Club Has Big Program For Hello Bills Dude Adams, who during the lifetime of the late Barron Wilkins was his right hand man in the management of Barrons Exclusive Club, announces that he has arranged a special program at the Vo-De-O Club, 126th street and Seventh avenue.

Sam Wooding's Band Back After Two Years Back After Two Years Sam Wooding and his band returned to America on August 10, coming from South America on board the Lampart and Holt Liner Vauban. They came direct from Rio de Janeiro, musicians had been away for two and a half years, the major portion of their time having been spent in various European countries. They played in most of the European capitals, and their offerings were received with great interest. The band was recorded them in South America, which they reached some months ago. In Madrid the Barid played before the Queen of Spain and in Stockholm they were heard by the band. They played in Leningrad, Copenhagen, Budapest, Vienna, Barcelona, Frankfort, Danzig London Paris, Monte Carlo, the Riviera, going from the last named place to Buenos Ayres. Before leaving Europe, the band was caught up on six different engagements. Before leaving America, Sam Wooding's orchestra played at the Club Alabam. The personnel numbers fifteen. ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS By PERCIVAL OUTRAM So much hullabaloo has been raised in foreign lands concerning the influx of American musicians in their countries that it is not surprising to see that Mr. Joseph Weber, president of the American Federation of Musicians, has been quoted as saying: "An artist is a man like Hoffman, Heifetz or Kreisler, men with such great talent that they are able to stand alone. Even thoughphony Orchestra renders an artistic production, that does not mean that each man in that orchestra is an artist." The Department of Labor defines musicians as a "professional artist," they having free access to America. Mr. Weber prefers the definition of laborers in the field of music," claiming that Hoffman, Mr. Weber, and certain an audience individually, whereas any "laborer" cannot no function. If the distinction between "professional artist" and "laborers in the field of music" was made, the commissioning by the quota law. It is alleged that Mr. Weber complains that foreign musicians are imported here and work for lower wages in the premier orchestra in jazz bands or orchestras.

A night on Broadway imported an orchestra from France and a protest has been placed before the Labor Department, seeking their deportation. Don David, the well known movie orchestra leader, who at once controlled the music of three Hard Rock concerts, recently was directed by the Univ. confine his activities to the Douglas Theatre, has been finned $100 by Local 802 and suspended from working in any M. & S. house for one year. This fine and suspension was imposed after the hearing alleged irregular handling the Douglas Theatre Orchestra. David paid his fine and was instructed to tender the manager a 2 weeks notice, to get another leader. His time expires August 14. But David is full of energy and resourcefulness, and will, we understand, walk right into one of two theatres waiting for him, and rumor says he will be using all white men in the orchestra. David's success has not yet been found and Sergheas Arms Minton is trying to find a competent man to take the position. The Renaissance Theatre Orchestra has been reduced by two men (cornet and trombone). This leaves the strings to cover the work. This job was contracted for by Don David for six months. David worked for a short while and was requested by the Douglass to put an orchestra in the Douglass. He did, leaving Felix Weir, who then began playing with him on the job, in charge of the Renaissance Orchestra, and David taking eight men to the Douglass. David's Renaissance contract expired just one week ahead of his closing week at the Douglass (Auvergne) theater. It is stated it is stated that Felix will hereafter be in charge of the Renaissance Orchestra—if he so desires. Tennis Booming At Newport, Rhode Island Newport; R. I.—Opposition to tennis among the Negroes in Newport has been overcome. Strange to say, the strongest opposition among those of race who couldn't play the direct court, the rest of the youngsters remain in a period of lethargy. Each of the four churches in Newport, in 1927, have secured new pastors. They have, almost all, been members of social uplift and physical culture. Rev. Jeffries of M. Olivet BaptistMt Church converted the yard in the rear of his church into an athletic field with regulation courts soon after his installation. The Oldhometown Tennis Club brought to a close its first year without a deficit, a healthy sinking fund, much experience, and membership in the N. E. T. A. A. Election of officers finds the Clubs officers for 1927-1927 as follows: President, Cromwell P. West; vice president, Anna S. West; secretary, Mrs. Elizabeth Williams, recording secretary, Mrs Edith West; financial secretary, George Jenkins; Treasurer, Le Roy Poole board of directors: Mrs Adella Suggs, Mrs Alice Richards, Mrs Fith Pole Poole, William Kelly and Prof. Charles Becker. The club is sparing no expense to make the second annual soiree, which opens its tournament, a success. The ball takes place at the club, which will such well known features as Broadway Jones and King Cole of New York and Ray Jackson's Society Orchestra.

Vettern Pulman Rorter The Mediation Board Fails The Brotherhood --- Editor of. The New York Age: We have taken up considerable space in your valuable paper from time to time in the presentation of our views on the methods employed by the organizer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. His spasmodic announcements through the extra and special bulletins about the Mediation Board intervening between the porters and The Pullman Company have been going on now and he must now know a bit of his failure and give him further reason for appealing to the deluded porters who have joined the Association to pay up their dues and assessments. On Friday, August 12, Mr. Edwin P. Morrow, member of the United States Board of Mediation, stated that the Board had been unsuccessful in inducing the Pullman company to purchase the Sleeping Car Porters to submit to arbitration, and this was followed by a statement from the President of The Pullman Company that no dispute exists between the company, its porters and maids. The employees contacted the company that there was harmonious co-operation. The present situation was brought about by an attempt on the part of outsiders and a few discharged employees to disrupt these pleasant relations, and it was stated that there are on on file applications from thousands of colored men who desire to enter the service. Many of the company employees the thousands of porters who have left the service voluntarily or who were discharged, are constantly striving for, reinstature, and there is not a day that passes but what I meet some extra porter who is inquiring as to what his chances would be for re-employment in The Pullman Company. The Pullman company is indiscriminate and regular employee for 12,000 colored men and their wages and working conditions are comparable, in fact, far better than any other group of colored men and women. It appears therefore that the organizers and their satellites, who are living in ease and luxury, occupy drawing room, dining room, and fron on monies they have under musrepresentation collected from the porters, will have to find other employment and get to work. The death knall has been struck, and while Mr. Organizer will probably continue to issue his false notice, the porters will be porters for more money to enable him and his followers to cke out an existence, it will be a very foolish colored man that will pay any further attention to their appeals. Mediation on the part of the Board was a myth, and as there was no nobilization, they reached the end. GEORGE L. FORD.
