When the Federated Colored Catholics of the United States opened the third annual convention with a pontifical high mass at St. Charles Borromeo's Church, 213 West 141st street, Sunday, September 4, at 11.30 a.m., the organization and congregation, both Catholic and non-Catholic, were thrilled by a special greeting from His Holiness, Pope Pius, transmitted from the Vatican, Rome, Italy, saying:
"The Holy Father sends to the Convention of the Colored Catholics his good wishes and paternal benediction.
The Rt. Rev. John Dunn, D. D. V. G., bishop auxiliary of New York, was celebrant of the high mass, and the sermon was preached by the Rt. Rev. Monsignor Thomas M. O'Keefe, pastor of St. Beniict the Moor Church, West 32rd street, Manhattan.

He urged it as a special work of the Federation to bring about a realization of this policy of the church. The Rt. Rev. Mgr. Thomas M.

Notable Assemblage.
It was a notable assemblage which faced Bishop Dunn and Monsignor O'Keefe, 'many distinguished men and women of both races, Catholic and Protestant, being in the congregation. Among some of the Catholic personage present were Father Ignatius Cox S. J., representing the provisional residence of all Eastern Jesuitism; Father John LaFarge, S.

250.000 Colored Catholics.
There are some 250,000 colored Catholics in the United States, principally in Maryland and Louisiana, with a good representation in New York City, and the Federa-
tion aims to bring about a closer union and better feeling among these congregations, to ad-
mire the need for a national education, to raise the general status of the race, and to stimulate colored Catholics to a larger participation in racial and civic affairs. The Most Rev. Michael J. Curley of Baltimore is the Federa-
tion's spiritual adviser. An afternoon session at 2:30 o'clock, held at St. Marie's Hall, 57 West 138th street, with Elmo Anderson, chairman of the local committee, presiding. A prayer, followed by the pledge to the flag, with singing of "The Star Spangled Banner," preceded two welcome addresses, one by Mrs. Bibb Bibb-Thompson, the other by Bibb Myles A. Paige. The response was by Eugene A. Clark of Washington. Other brief but interesting addresses were made by Dr. Eugene P. Roberts and Fred R. Moore, director of the New York Age. A brief by the Misses Helene and Wanda Campbell was enjoyed. Roll Campbell was delegates, appointment of committee members, announcements concluded the session.
Negro Priesta Needed..
This annual address on Monday morning, President Thomas W Turner stressed—the need of a larger racial representation in the press school. He referred to the Lord Father's encyclical upon the question of a native elergy, which was emphasized by the recent conquest of Chinese—and one Japanese—laboratories, that the first Roman Catholic Bishop consecrated in the new world was a Negro and that was
lefthree Popes were men of acknowledged Negro descent.
He urged it as a special work of the Federation to bring about a realization, of this policy of the church. The Rt. Rev. St. Thomas. M. M. O'Keefe, of St. Benjidé Church, New York's largest, Negro Catholic parish, favored clergy for all the groups, but advised it as a way of all forward movements it is a matter of time. Patience and a steady endeavor will bring it to pass.
The secretary, H. M. Smith, in his report, urged encouragement toward higher education for Negro Catholic children, and referred to the inability of colored children to enter the Catholic University at Valparaiso, a city of churches institutions. It was brought out that in some communities there is co-operation between white and colored Catholics, particularly New York, Boston, Columbus, Detroit, Cincinnati and some New Jersey towns, but that in Washington it is different. White communicants in these churches are considered and consideration in colored churches in the Capital, but colored, visitors to white churches are relegated to rear seats.
Roater. of Officers.
Father H. F. Kane, S. J., spoke on the work of the Society of St. Joseph, and William A. Prater, organizer and field agent made his report, Nicholas Carter, a colored member of the local- Knights of Columbus, brought greetings from his order. C. P. Clarke of Philadelphia emphasized the value of a military training.

OLDEST SOLDIER ON U. S. PENSION LIST IS NEGRO Mark Thrash of Georgia Is 107 and Is Cared For By Annuity
Washington, D. C. - Mark Thrash Southern Negro, at the age of 107 years enjoys the reputation of being the oldest person retired from Government service. He smokes his pipe in Georgia and is surrounded with the comforts that his annuity provides.
President Monroe was in the White House, Napoleon was at St Helena and Abraham Lincoln was in knee braces. He was Virginia, December, 1820. He was born a slave and for forty years served his master, Col. Christopher Thrash. He entered the Government service in 1894 and had served Uncle Sam for twenty-eight years when he was retired in 1922.
Thrash, age 107, Charles F. McMullen, William Saxon, ninety-eight, are the three oldest men still receiving annuity on being retired from active service.
When Indiana Roved Georgia
The record in the Retirement Division, Department, of Interior shows that Thrash was born in Virginia, December 25, 1820. At an early age he was sent to Georgia by his master who had purchased a 500-acre tract of the State, and sent him to work clearing lands. At that time Indians were still roving the Southeast.
After the end of the Civil War Thrash wandered with other refugees through Arkansas and into Tennessee, where he obtained a place as watchman. On June 3, 1921 he accepted the Government, service as a stableman at Chicamauga National Park, under the War Department where he served until July 31 1922. He was well past the age of retirement when the law became effective, in 1921. Although he was capable of further service, was retired from active work. Upon his retirement he returned to Georgia, where he has since resided; and is reported to be in good health. His annuity is mail-ordered to the Government division and provides the wherewithal for his existence.

Egyptian Ex-High Priest Declares There Are No True Shriners Among Either Colored Or White Americans
Asserts As A Necessity The Oath Coming From Mecca or Aalpo, Arabia, and Adoption Of Moslemism; Swear By Beard Of Prophet
"There is not a legitimate or real Noble of the Mystic Shrine, black or white, affiliated with American masonry," declared Dr. Abdull Hamid Sulyman, ex-high priest from the City of Carton, Sudan, Egypt, now and for some time past residing in New York City. His present address is 2139 Seventh avenue.
Explain this declaration, Dr. Sulyman said that the true Shriner's oath must come from Mecca or Aalpo, Arabia; that adoption of Moslemism, the Mohammedan faith, is a necessary precedent, to be followed by taking of the oath on the Koran, with a swearing by the Beard of the Prophet of the Marow of Mecca.
Another distinguishing essential is that occidental masonry only covers from the first to the thirty-third degrees, while the oriental, the only true rites, carries its disciples to the ninety-sixth degree.
3 Other Grand Lodges
Inquiry as to the meaning of the reference to "three signatories" in the grand secretary's letter brought an answer to the effect that it referred to three masonic grand lodges here, the King Solomon Grand Lodge; John H. Smith Brooklyn, grand master; Hiram Grand Lodge, J. Bennett, Manhattan, grand master; and St. John Grand Lodge, Mr. Portree, Brooklyn, grand master.
Further information was that the Hiram Grand Lodge was set up in New York about 1910 by John
Claims English Parentage.
American masonry, he said, derives its being from the English Grand Lodge, claiming that the original Prince Hall Lodge, constituted in Boston, was set up under a dispensation and charter from the English body. But the origin is in doubt, avers Dr. Sulyman, since the closest search of masonic history fails to show a record of this action. Tradition brings down a story that in Boston sometime about 1783-1890, there was set up the African Lodge, with a membership confined solely to military subjects. No civilians were admitted to membership. But later it is believed that this military organization was responsible for the creation of the masonic body known as the Prince Hall Grand Lodge. As evidence of his contention with regard to the status of the masons in the United States, Dr Sulyman has a letter from the grand secretary of the Grand Lodge of England, replying to a letter of inquiry sent him by Dr. Sulyman, explaining his connection to the relationship existing between the colored masonic fraternity in this country and the English parent's body.

The letter, signed by G. Coliver Smith, grand secretary, reads as follows:

In reply to your letter of May 7th the United Grand Lodge of England has at no time, recognized either a Coloured Lodge or a Coloured Grand Lodge in the United States. The only American Grand Lodges and subordinate Lodges which are recognized by this Grand Lodge are the Grand Lodges of the 49 Independent Jurisdictions which the United States is divided.
"You must have been misinformed as to the alleged Louisiana Grand Lodge because the United Grand Lodge of England has never held any Congress in Switzerland or associated itself with any international Masonic gathering held in the country.

Further information was that the Hiram Grand Lodge was set up in John G. Jones of Coffalo with 1919 by C. Smith of Buffalo as its first grand master. Grand Master Purnell came next and he was succeeded by A. P. Thornton, who died just two or three months ago. Bennett the president head is a tailor of 1838.

Although he has not affiliated with the Americanodge, he states that he has been in the office of the official of the Prince Hall fraternity, and that he had been of vital service to that body in its legal fights before the United States Supreme Court, to establish its legitimate right to operate in this country. In 1924, Dr. Sulyman was an important witness before the Supreme Court. His depositions going far toward clarifying the reasons and bringing about favorable decisions for the colored masonns of Kansas, Florida and Massachusetts and in the Texas case now pending.
Dr. Sulyman declares that he made a proposition to Imperial Potentate Rakek, Rakek, Mystic Shriners, offering to grant mit to the colored Shriners legitimacy through their officiating with the Mecca Medina Temple, which he, Dr. Sulyman, had incorporated in the State of New York, and this proposition was evidenced by the Committee of Defense with a witness with Sulyman with Imperial Potentate Blake present.
In this conference, he says, Blake suggested that the mysteries he described to him individually, and that he would then transmit the oath to his brother Shriner, but this Dr. Sulyman declined to do. For his services in testifying before the court, the former attorney states that he was paid $500 for that amount included reimbursement for his expenses as well.
Barbadians In New York Take Bishop R. G. Barrow To Task For Opinions Alleged To Have Been Given By Him
At the recent Pan-African Congress, Bishop R. G. Barrow of Brooklyn, pastor of the African Orthodox Church on Classon avenue, near Atlantic avenue, was one of the speakers on the first day. His address has stirred the ire of Barbadians in New York City, who declare that he was for many years a resident of the Virgin Islands and so not competent to have posed at the Congress as a delegate from Barbados.
The attitude of Barbadians in New York is set forth by Percy Small of 200 West 134th street, in a lengthy statement containing severe strictures on the Brooklyn bishop's expressed opinions, and charging him with being false not only to the Barbadians but to the entire Negro race.

As an indication of what he alleges to be Barow's curbing of intelligent thought activity in his church, Small recites the an organization, the Endich Forum, a cradle of Negro thought working in the civil service.
Urged Amorican Control.
It is alleged by Mr. Small that Bishop Barow made the allegation that only under the regime of the United States can Barbados carve her way to true progress, and this assertion is disputed by Mr. Small, who declares with fervor that "Barbarians are not for sale." He writes the example of Haït under the American Occupation, charging that more than 3000 natives have been murdered, girls from 12 years of age up raped, and many of the laboring class enslaved for the building of military roads under the corvice system.
Mr Small says that he has been studying Bishop Barrow, and charges that he is in this country under suffrage. Last March, he asters. Bishop Barrow was taken by the immigration authorities to Ellis Island deportation as an alien, but that some of his supporters raised $1509 and secured his temporary release. The question of his status, states Mr Small, is still in abeyance, although he is desirous of acquiring United States citizenship.
At the time of his Ellis Island experience, Bishop Barrow was associated with the independent Episcopal church, the Affican Orthodox, founded and established by Bishop George Alexander McGuire of Manhattan. But without the knowledge of Bishop McGuire, Bishop Barrow had his Brooklyn church separately incorporated, brought Bishop Lloyd, a white man, from Chicago, to assist in the consecration of two other bishops, Brooks and Van Loo, and then set himself as an archbishop

Abolished Church Forum.
As an indication of what he alleges to be Barow's curbing of intelligent thought activity in his church, Small recites that an organization, the Endich Forum, a cradle of Negro thought working toward racial uplift, was abolished by Barrow immediately after his release from Ellis Island, and that he is being assisted in his endeavors by Brookes, Van Loo, John Bayne and Stuart, son of a schoolmaster in the Island of Barbados. Referring to Bishop Barow's address favoring United States' control of Barbados, Mr. Small declares that Barbarians love freedom, and that those who keep in touch with affairs of the world would never willingly agree to conditions which entail sufferings similar to that experienced by Haiti, Santo Domingo and the Virgin Islands at the hands of imperialistic white America.
Mr. Small declares that leaders of the Pan-African Congress and the Universal Negro Improvement Association are striving for the complete emancipation of the Negro everywhere, but that Bishop Barrow introduces the slavery idea Barbadians, says Small, are given to choosing representatives of repute, men of culture, of learning, men whose moral status is unquestionable. Barbadoes, he asserts, has given many men of the Sir Conrad Reeves' type, but she has never given to the world a Brutus, a Cassius or a Judas.

Georgia Legislature Gives $115,332 To Georgia State Collee
Savannah, Ga.-The State Legislature, just adjourned, gave generois consideration to the Georgia State Industrial College, appropriating $115,332 for maintenance and support during the next biennial. President Hubert and members of the trustee board appeared before the state solons and emphasized the fact that since its establishment, 36 years ago, the school had never received more than $10,000 a year. There are federal land funds coming to the school, and these will increase the school fund to about $80,000 a year. Besides this the General Educatin Board is to provide from $50,000 to $100,000 for new buildings, and this added to funds now on hand will provide for a modern home economics building, dining hall, practice cottage, and administrative building.

Burlington Man Killed In Automobile Accident
.
Burlington, N. C.-Peter H. Holt, 55 years old, employee of Kirk Holt Hardware Company for the past thirty-five years, was killed almost instantly last week when the Ford touring car he was driving toward Burlington on the Whitsett road plunged from a bridge six feet into a branch.
The wreck was discovered early Thursday morning and the driver was found dead. It was the opinion of Coroner R. M. Troxler that death was due to suffocation as the car was found upside down.
The deceased was long identified with religious work. He was an expert mechanic and worked in the mechanical department of the hardware company. He had the reputation of being the peer of any factory man in putting farm machinery together.
He is survived by several children and two brothers, his wife having died about two years ago.

SECOND HARMON PRIZE WINNER GOES TO EUROPE Woodruff To Study Two Years In Spain, Italy and France
Hale Woodruff the artist who won the second award in art given by the Harmon Foundation last December sailed September 3 on the French Line steamship Paris to spend two years in France, Italy and Spain, where he will complete his studies in art, specializing in the painting of landscapes. The William E. Harmon awards for distinguished achievement among Negroes provide for the giving of money and medals each year to two members of that race who are adjudged to be doing the outstanding work in each of eight fields—art, literature, education, religious service, music, science, business, and race relations.
The first award in art last year—a gold medal and $400—was given to Palmer C. Hayden a Greenwich Village housecleaner, who was also given $3000 by an anonymous person to finance a trip abroad. The second ward in art a bronze medal and $100 was won by Woodruff, who immediately set out to emulate Hayden's example.
Many Gifts Together
To the original sum of his prize he added the money realized on the sale of the five pictures which won him the award, and Herman Leiber, an Indianapolis art dealer, has agreed to sell at least one picture a month which will be painted by Woodruff during this stay abroad. To this sum Otto H. Kahn made a further addition and agreed to contribute a similar amount next year so that Woodruff may spend a full two years abroad. Woodruff is a quiet, dignified man of medium height and build. He is clean shaven, neatly dressed and reserved in manner. He speaks with a slow Western drawl, and finds it difficult to talk about himself.
He was born in Cairo, Ill., and moved soon afterward to Nashville Tenn., where at the age of 12 he was forced to go to work to earn his own living and to help to support his mother widowed only shortly before. He got a job as a choreboy and earned $3 a week After that he took one job after another in quick succession. For a year he fired a boiler in a clubhouse in Indianapolis; for four years he was a waiter in a hotel, and then he got a job as a janitor in the Y. M. C. A Later he was made a clerk, and finally a secretary in that organization
Disciple of Ultra-Impressionists
From early childhood he spent his spare moments in sketching and decided to educate himself in art. He put himself through high school and attended the John Herron Art Institute in Indianapolis for three years. His work and his studies then kept him confined indoors to such an extent that he seldom had a chance to get out to the country—a fact which increased his natural love for the out of doors.
He classes himself as ultra-impressionistic.
After a year in Paris at the Julian Academy or at the Grande Chaumiere Woodruff will go to Italy to study the works of the Renaissance and then to Spain to see those of Velasquez Greco and Murillo.
By A PARTICIPANT
What was planned to be an orderly well-intentioned, impressive happening—the memorial march for Sacco and Vanzetti, in Boston, Mass., on Sunday, August 28, 1927—will be remembered by Americans generally, as a piece of disorderless, a something that never should have taken place. This simply and solely because of the police. What disorder the police did not achieve by their efforts, the press of Boston did, in their news stories and reports relative to the event.
Despite all efforts to misrepresent the facts, however, the truth did manage to get through here and there in the various stories. Neither could the impressiveness of the parade be entirely taken away, even with all sorts of efforts to mar it. And the good intentions, too, persisted in the face of insult obstruction and vicious manhandling at various points along the course of the march.
From the beginning to the end of the march the police worked intermittently on the mob", as one report admitted, "chiselling off large numbers here and there" until at the end of the afternoon when the final clash with the police took place the funeral cortege estimated at 25,000 had been reduced to about .150". The chiselling began soon after the march started with the riding into the crowd of mounted policemen. "Order was obtained by this method," comments one writer. This deliberate intention on the part of the authorities to incite to violence, or failing that, to create it through authorized brutality on the part of the men ostensibly detailed to guard the procession, was given the appearance of tender solicitude. Very near the start poise "thought the mourners on foot were pressing too closely on the hearses and the flower bearers," we read. He that as it may, the mounted officers suddenly cut into the line—Just another instance of chiselling off! Throughout the entire route by means of intimidation, brute force, and petty meanness, such as orders which resulted in the "opposite tide of traffic being divested into the line of
march," by every possible means, legitimate and illegitimate, the parade was cut down. But through it all the non-violent spirit held. The steady determined tramp, of those tireless marching feet the simple plodding glory of it one can never forget. Probably in the whole history of the country, there can be found nothing like a parallel for it—such beautiful appreciation of supreme self-sacrifice and courage, coupled with a marvelous patience under great provocation!
When the marchers—near the end of their long journey, got to Forest Hills Square they linked their arms somewhat more tightly to prevent any further scattering of their diminished numbers. And not a minute too soon. Suddenly a sharp "Get over there" was heard. Not one minute was 'given for the order to be obeyed. Individually the clubs began to swing, angry words began to people were sent 'sprawling to the pavement. Police pistols were drawn and umbrellas snatched from the paraders were used to beate them.
Probably three quarters of this rear guard was scattered at this final endeavor of the guardians of the peace to provoke trouble, and brand with infamy the Sacco-Vanzetti memorial march. The Boston HERALD, which gave a singularly uneven account of the affair, pictures very well its unfortunate ending:
Not all the marching mourners had given up the parade, however. In groups of five or six, the leaders of the original procession had shipped, by side streets, with their nucleus of the faithful. The paraders reformed with Alfred Baker Lewis and Miss Bassatto at their head—Off they swung, bearing their heads, although the gain was pouring in torrents. Half a mile on they met the hearses returning. There was little left to parade for. The policemen would not let the marchers enter the cemetery or even stop. So, they dispersed. At dusk the wet road was deserted, still strewn with trampled red roses and red arm bands.
On these arm bands were the simple, truth-telling, dreadful words.
Remember: JUSTICE CRUCI-PIED, August 22, 1927.
So ended the attempt to pay honor to. Vicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti. Again Massachusetts had blotted her 'scrutcheon, irretrievably.

Is It True That It Costs To Be colored
(By ASA T. SPAULDING)
Here in Christian, peace-loving, and just America, it seems that some people are of the opinion that the Negro is the dupe of a cruel and incomprehensible sport, the victim of a terrible snare and an immense injustice. I have often wondered if this opinion is justified; consequently for the last few days I have observed the treatment of the Negro at the hands of the LAW in some few cases, and amongst the number that came to my attention were two particularly interesting ones. In the press of August 15, 1927 appeared an article under the caption "FATAL ACCIDENT CAUSES ARREST OF BUS DRIVER"; this article said in part:
"Basswell Green, Negro, is dead and Everett Fish, white, bus driver is out under bond on the charge of manslaughter. Another Negro was seriously and probably fatally injured, while four white people received injuries of varying degrees of seriousness
Sweeping down Vickers avenue at a rate of speed estimated by a passenger at around 40, the bus met the lighter car as the latter was crossing the intersection. . . .
Through the impact of the collision the bus was overturned and the other car knocked approximately 20 feet.
Following an investigation by the police into the accident which according to their findings, showed the car occupied by the Negroes had the right of way, under the terms of the state law, a warrant charging manslaughter was served on Fish. Bond in the sum of $500 was given."
In the same paper on the following morning appeared another article under the caption "WINSTON SALEM OFFICER IS DEAD FROM INJURIES"; this said in part:
"Thomas G Anderson, motorcycle officer died, today from injuries received last Thursday. Will Lourey, Negro driver of an auto truck, which collided with the motorcycle on which Anderson was riding, has been arrested on a charge of manslaughter and is out under $5,000 bond."
From the facts brought out in these two cases, Favecet Fish, the bus driver, was the fault according to the state law, a result of this he was placed under a five hundred dollar bond; however, allegation was made to the effect that Will Lowery, the truck driver, was in the fault according to the state law, and yet, he was placed under a five thousand dollar bond.
Now, even if we should grant that both parties were guilty of violating the state law, consequently guilty of manslaughter, I cannot understand why it is that in the "SCALES OF JUSTICE" in the same state, under the same laws, and on the same charge it takes a NEGRO and $5,000 to weigh as much as a white man and $500. It seems to me that it either costs" to be colored or the "SCALES OF JUSTICE" are badly impaired Durham, N.C.

WHEN YOU BUY FURNITURE
WHEN YOU BUY FURNITURE
You roughly divide furniture into two classes:
1. That furniture which is made to sell
2. That furniture which is made to ensure service and satisfaction to the buyer
Obviously there is a dividing line between the two. Frankly, that furniture which IS MADE TO SELL is, well, made to sell. There is no insurance of permanent satisfaction to the buyer attached to it. It is the most expensive kind of furniture that the customer can possibly purchase, for it has but a short life.
How much more intelligent is the course which actuates the purchaser to buy only those grades of furniture, which after years of service, remains staunch and untouched by the scars that inevitably stamp themselves upon the product of inferiority.
The Riley-Hogan policy is never to misrepresent. You may accept our recommendation and advice as FURNITURE GOSPEL. For we sell furniture that IS DEPENDABLE. And behind this looms the fact that our prices are competitive with those of any house in New York and in frequent instances considerably lower.
Try The Riley-Hogan Way When Buying Furniture
When the 369th Infantry, N. Y.
N. G., arrived at the 125th street
station of the New York Central
Railroad after two weeks at Camp
Smith, Peekskill, N. Y., Sunday
morning, September 4, it was met by
a committee of prominent Harlem
citizens under command of Capt.
Matthew V. Boutte, who escorted the
regiment to its armory on West 143rd
street.
This committee was as follows: Alderman - Henry W, Shields, Fred R. Moore, Attorney John William Smith, John W. Duncan, Fitzherbert Howell, James C. Andrews, Assistant District Attorney Thomas B. Dyett, William Bell, Attorney George Hall, "Bojangles" Bill Robinson, Michigan C. Brown and Percy Babcock.
Large Per Cent Present.
The regiment had 81 per cent of its personnel in camp which constitutes an exceptionally high rating. Compy n D, the machine gun company of the First Battalion, had 60 of its 62 members present. During the past two years this unit has maintained the highest attendance percentage of any company in the regiment. Col. William A. Taylor presented a large silver cup to Company D, in recognition of the splendid example its members have set in attendance and general efficiency.
The Company D Glee Club, under leadership of Private Jesse W. Pollins, did much to enlist the camp tour and their services were constantly in demand. The officers of this company are: Captain Rufus A. Atkins, commanding; First Lieutenant James W. Johnson and Second Lieutenant Martin A. Sutton. James R. Griffin is the first sergeant.
Lieutenant Danny Bailey, who went to camp commanding Commanding Company K, was promoted in the field to captain, and in addition turned in the highest rifle and revolver scores for the regiment. On Wednesday, of last week, Major General William N. Haskell reviewed the regiment.
Rescued Twelve Motor Cars
Lieutenant Colonel John Grimley was the executive officer during the first week and Major Euston P. Edmund the second week.
Captain Arthur L. Vanveen and his service Company, assisted by Captain Maynard K. Edmunds, acquitted themselves heroically last Thursday night, during the heavy rainstorm when a landslide engulfed twelve automobiles returning to New York over the Bear Mountain Bridge Road. The cries for help from those caught in the slide attracted the attention of the camp guard, whose calls brought Major Andrew P. Lamb to the scene. The officer at once called out the service company. Some of the cars were lifted bodily from the mire in order to extricate the passengers. Some of the women and children were hysterical. But provisions was made at camp for blankets and hot coffee and after two hours work the road was cleared and traffic resumed.
No case of illness was reported among the members of the regiment where no accidents It was the most successful tour the men have had

Trenton, N. J.—I'll always take care of sister Sarah" was the promise John Roberts, a Negro made at the death bed of his parents many years ago. Only his death at the age of seventy four early in the morning on September 4, in his little tumble down home in Bordentown broke that promise.
The howling of a dog led neighbors to the storm scared shack, where John has struggled to support his sister, seventy-two, until age shucked his footsteps and slowed his hands. When neighbors broke in they found John dead. He was leaning against a wall, apparently dying while watching over his sister, who was critically ill in a chair across the cheerless room. Both have suffered from neglect, county authorities said.
Sarah was taken to the hospital of the Burlington County Home for the Aged. Neighbors will pay for the burial of faithful old John. Mayor John Frederick of Bordentown had requested that the couple go to the poor house, but thy knew this meant separation and both refused.
"I just can't live without Sarah," said John, "and besides, I promised Poppy and Mammy I'd keer for her just as long as I was able. Well get along somehow."
John worked the little vegetable patch in the rear of his home until about a year ago, when weakness made him incapable. Mayor Frederick did what he could for John and Sarah and had provisions sent to them from time to time.
John and Sarah were respected by the townfolk. "Never a more loving pair was known," was one of the tributes paid yesterday.

Fashionables Not Bothering About Summer Negro Colony
Efforts of New York dailies to stir up a sensational disturbance over a report that Nail and Pearl, realors, had secured an option on 1,200 plots at Sorrento, Me., in the immediate vicinity of fashionable and exclusive Bar Harbor, Winter Harbor and Seal Harbor, on which they proposed establishing a summer colony for their colored clients, have not caused much of a stir among the Bar Harbor residents.
In fact, the wealthy residents of the neighborhood, including John D. Rockefeller, Jr., Mrs. Hamilton, sister to the late J. Pierpont Morgan, and Mrs. Dinock, sister to the late William C. Whitney, are quite serene and placid, entirely undisturbed.
Sorrento, as a matter of fact, is eight miles from Bar Harbor, by water and forty miles by land. Boats must cross Frenchman's Bay, and this puts the two bathing beaches some eight miles apart, which removes any possibility of conflict. The Sorrento property consisted mostly of the estate of the late Frank Jones, and his death put it on the market. Joseph S. Edelman of 151 Wes 40th street, New York City, held an option on the site, which he says, had been bought in by the Mann Realty Corporation, who engaged Joseph P. Day to dispose of the lots by auction. This plan failed and then Edelman got his option. When he advertised the option, it was taken up by Nail & Parker and the deal put through without delay

CHURCH ACTIVITIES IN GREATER NEW YORK
CORNERSTONE LAID FOR UNION BAPT. CHURCH ON SUNDAY
There was a great day in Union Baptist Church, Sunday. The laying of the third cornerstone was a memorial occasion. It is an outstanding event in the history of this church and its efficient pastor, the Rev. Dr. G. H. Sims. The congregation and friends assembled at the Metropolitan Baptist Church 128th street and Seventh avenue, and marched to the future church home, 240 West 145th street. The procession led by A. W. R. Reeves who was with church at the first corner laying in 63rd street in 1901. H. Tibbs and W. Archer had charge of the line-up. Music was furnished by the Eureka Band.
The ceremony was in charge of M. W. King Solomon Grand Lodge, Inc. A. F. A. M. Dr. W. W. John was master of ceremonies. He delivered a short address which was very interesting and encouraging. Dr. John Robinson, Dr. E. P. Roberts, Dr. R. M. Bolden spoke encouraging words. The offering was lifted, Joseph was given and the contributors by giving a check for $100. Pastor Sims, Trustee Cabines, Sadie Hance, and others, followed. The offering for the day amounted to $2445.73. Sanday morning our pastor presided. His family have returned from their vacation in Virginia. The members and friends were out in large numbers at each service. The message was well delivered from the subject, "Anxious to See Jesus." He gave a message to passive spoke on a timely subject, "Move Or Die."
We are making great progress under the leadership of Dr. Sims. He organized the church in 1898, In 1901, the cornerstone to the first church was laid. In 1904 the cornerstone to second church was laid. Now we have lain the third cornerstone.
First Emmanuel Church
At the 11 o'clock service, Dr. J. W. E. Bowen, dean of Gammon Theological Seminary, preached. His text was "I besech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you give yourselves a holy receptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world, but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove, what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God." Romans, 12:1. 2 Theme: the Transforming Power of God. The Transforming Mind Of Believers In Our Lord. Dr. Bowen said: "From a tree this desk or pulpit was made, but did that destroy the fundamental elements of it? No. Man makes, God creates. As regards creation, God spoke and it was done. He commanded, and it stood still. About 100 men made helped him to Kobelling built the Brooklyn Bridge, had the idea for the bridge; but he had to have ditch diggers, masons, artisans and workmen to make his idea concrete. That is conformed. Do not he conformed to this world. Don't let this world shape your ideas ideals and life. Give God 365 days in the year. Instead of one in the year, the devil only wants to get you drunk once a day that仕业 him.
What... is the difference between a caterpillar and a butterfly? Nothing only in the dress. The inside elements are the same. The inside elements are the deeper ones about as a caterpillar emerges out of a cocoon in the spring of the year. Reformation says, quit go with good people, have outside appearances. But Christianity means regenerated, reborn, a new nature. The Catholic Church, in giving us impressions upon the mind, of the people that it is, the flesh; and the wine the blood of Jesus. But that is a theory, as no man can turn bread to flesh and wine to blood. Jesus is his misunderstood Jesus when he tells us about eating his flesh and drink his blood. He meant Spiritual, they thought he meant physical.
A little Scotch girl was 'telling her Dominie about the new change in her, in the cow, the 'blickie, the sun the grass. The dominie asked her what was the 'change, he saw it not. After awhile she lifted her eyes and said, "Well, dominie, if you don't see the change on the outside it is on the inside." Christianity has 'not conquered the world. It has 'made us one with Christ." Mohammedanism traches oneness to all—no castle or color. But all are one, Allah is God. Mohammed is his prophet. Let us be one in spirit, in unity, and be transformed and not conformed to this world."
At the evening service, Pastor Baldwin preached from the text; "Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest; take my yoke upon you and learn of me; for I am pure and lowly in heart; and ye shall find rest unto your soul. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light. St. Matthi, 11:28, 30 Theme: "Our Lord the Emmanuel's Invitation to Laboreers" Pastor Bolden said "According to the teachings of the Bible the
BETHEL CHURCH BREAKS GROUND FOR NEW HOUSE 80 Year Old Brooklyn Church To Erect A Modern Edifice
Throngs of church people and citizens in general crowded around the corner of Dean street and Schenectady avenue, Brooklyn, on Sunday afternoon, September 4 for the 'ground-breaking exercises, of (Union) Bethel A. M. E. Church, the Rev. Dr. C. P. Cole, pastor, which was preceded by a procession of the congregation of the Brooklyn Lodge of Elks and delegations from Bridge Street, Fleet Street and other churches of the Borough.
Bishop Reverdy C. Ransom of Nashville, Tenn., officited in place of the resident bishop, Rt. Rev. William H. Heard of Philadelphia, who is in Europe. The marchers formed at 2 o'clock at the Dunbar Church, and the Schenectady avenue where the Bethel Congregation is temporarily worshipping and the exercises followed immediately upon arrival at the church site upon which the old church stood, and which has been owned and controlled by this church, and about 60 years Bethel was organized September 1848 and incorporated January 29, 1849.
People Give $839.39
The opening hymn was announced by the Rev. E. E. Tyler, pastor Bridge Street A. M. E. Church, with prayer by Rev. R. M. Henderson. Pastor Cole lined the second hymn and scripture lessons were ready the Revs. H. K. Spearman and J. B. Adams. Special aid members were given by the choirs of Bethel and Holy Trinity Baptist Churches. Bishop Ransom was presented and addressed the assembly, followed by pastors and other visitors who bore greetings to Bethel. The offering was taken by the Rev. T. S. Harten, amounting to $89.39, after which came the ground-breaking. The ordered choirs and congregation sang "The Church's Seamone Foundation". Charles E. Seamone directing and the benediction was pronounced by the Rev. D. Ward Nichols, pastor of Emanuel A. M. E. Church Manhattan
adamic man created in the image and likeness of God did not labor for his existence. For he was placed in a perfect environment, a garden eastward in Eden, or what is known as Paradise, where every provision has been made' by His Father God, for his health, comfort, inspiration and 'enjoyment. His Father God often companioned him. He was commanded to keep the Garden and eat of all the fruit therein, except the Tree of Knowledge, which it was seen it was good for man to be alone, his Father God created woman from a portion of man's body and substance, and He gave her to him as his helpmate. It was she who through the subtility of the intelligent serpentine force, evil suggested, since she had the power to sheild the fruit, that he Adam, would do the same. He obeyed her rather than his Creator God. And for this disobedience they were driven out of the Garden of Eden into a time and sense world, where Adam was told that he must earn his livelihood by the sweat of his brow, and that he must earn an opposing environment against his efforts to live, survive and procreate himself.
Therefore we conclude that sip brought about the hard labor conditions in human experience. Individuals and groups sought to escape this hardship by, enslaving one another and that spirit has come down through the ages. Cruel wars, ancient medieval and modern, have been used to certain national and racial groups to the status of hard laborers. Governmental kings and our present industrial and economic kings do not differ in spirits as regards this matter. Our Lord Jesus Christ 'the Emmanuel in proclaiming His call to those that labor and are heavy laden, and declaring to all who believe in him and accepted His will in him, to mankind a way out for He says, "Take my yoke upon you and learn my if me. For I am meek and lowly of heart and ye shall find rest for your souls."
The Holy Spirit in this present age is working out the realization of this truth through labor unions and through the inventive genius of man in enslaving the natural elements, the forces of nature and mechanical energy to do the laborious work for the world. That man is resting from physical toll and is making adventurous excursions in the hidden sources of spiritual consciousness and is exporing the unknown eternal regions and universes. God grant that we may obey the call and yoke up and live in the school with Him our Lord the Emmanuel. Sunday school opened at -2 p. m. Miss. Maggie Johnson, assistant superintendent conducting the service. The dinner was served during the day by members of the Flower Circle. The 14th anniversary of the church is being observed this week. Special services next Sunday.

The Junior Church will reopen next Sunday at 10 a. m.
Rush Memorial Church
Dr. G. M. Oliver, preached a practical sermon at the 11 o'clock services, last Sunday morning on "The Great, Crisis," John 17.1. Referring to the words of the text, Dr. Oliver mentioned the fact that they constituted the Lord's Prayer. But the model prayer which is taught in the Lord's Prayer, but the Prayer of Intercession, the prayer that Jesus made at the time of the greatest crisis the world has ever known—the prayer for the sins of the world. The practicality of the sermon was in the fact that in each individual's life there comes a time when he must face his crisis—when he must decide either to choose the right or wrong way, when those things which he loves must done away with in order that he must help his fellow man. Christ gave his life that, as sin cursed world might live. Until we feel the pain, the joy; of loving sacrifice, we do

The B. Y. P. U. picked up some on Wednesday night, and began to look as if the vacation spell was so much broken on our young man. Broady Johnson was at her post, and she has been there, no matter what others may have been doing. The day is not far when such faithfulness will be rewarded by having a live and helpful Union.
The prayer meetings Friday and Sunday were good, although even here the son is seen. We are glad that the fall has come and we expect that great things will be accomplished.

Methodist Laymen Hold Organic Union Debate In Brooklyn Church
The question of organic union among the Methodists, with a consideration of the value of the laymen's organizations to the general church, formed the basis of discussion for a largely attended mass meeting held at the Fleet Street Memorial First A. M. E Zion Church, the Rev. W. C. Brown, pastor, Bridge street, Brooklyn, on Sunday afternoon, September 4, at 3 o'clock.
The question: of organic union was discussed at length by. Dr. Brown for the A. M. E. Zion Church, and the Rev. D. M. Baxter, manager of the Book Concern, for the A. M. E. Church. Both speakers were sanguine that organic man will soon be a fact, spoke of the advantages that woud accrue to the churches as a result.
The value of the layman's movement was also set forth, and the concrete organization already formed in the 'A. M. E. New York Conference was held up as an example of other denominations. The speaker representing the laity were Dr. John M. Marquess of Philadelphia, a former president of the Oklahoma State University, and Prof. Chas. H. Johnson, teacher of fine arts at Will伯森 University, and general secretary of the Layman's Department of the University. These speakers emphasized the importance of harmonious cooperation between the clergy and the laity, and told of some of the work accomplished by the laymen's unions. They also touched upon the question of organic union, both having been members of committees of the general conference to confer with the other Methodist denominations on the subject.
The meeting was held under joint auspices of the laymen of the A. M. E. Zion Church and the lay Members Union of the New York Annual Conference of the laymen of the A. M. E. Church, Inc., Oyster Center, testified. The meeting was presided over by Rev. M. W. Thornton, presiding elder, N. Y. Conference, and a number of other ministers' were in attendance.

THE
Boxing Expert Of Evening World Says Godfrey Has Taken Wills' Place As Leading Negro Challenger
Controversy Looms Over Discrimination Of White Heavies Against Godfrey—Tunney Scored For His Biassed Attitude
The following article appeared recently in the Evening World concerning the present heavyweight boxing situation in the East; according to the writer, who is an expert on the subject, George Godfrey, giant heavyweight from Montgomery, Ala., looms upon the fistic horizon as the challenger of the white heavyweights, and their refusal to meet him is a symbol of the white man's injustice to the Negro:
By ED VAN EVERY
Boxing for five years placed it intention of making Harry Wills stand out injustice to the Negro. Jack Derr the Negro champion, the New Yorker were placed in almost ludicrous light affair, became not a little obnoxious, and now boxing seems to be involver again, in the case of George Gore. There is an indication that the my Maloney in the first round in the future arrangements. for the .elimin challenger for the heavyweight crown. This is not intended in any see Godfrey. He is quite probably a Harry Wills during most of the year and so carefully avoided taking weights, white or Negro. This do not agnation, that I think Godfrey is really great exponents of the manly George Dixon, Peter Jackson, Sam I worthy of mention.
Having watched Godfrey in action none too high an estimate of his all was against Bill Tate four years ago like a case of seeing who was to find and it was Blll who took out in a time he lost a couple of decisions outgamed, to put it plain. Of his man Bob Lawson, Jack Townsend and around this vicinity, the least said. Still, there is no getting away feated Maloney more decisively than any other heavyweight. Maloney by Tex Rickard into the next of of which will make the ostracizing fight with his hands tied because and could not get bouts unless he be told with a wink of the eye that trey was just a present:
In short, boxing is again play make it all ready for Godfrey to take Wills was finally forced to discard been merely masquerading.

And now the Rickard represent be matched with Jack Sharkey, and the heavyweight argument. There fact as an inference that the Negro posed to be too good. If Paolino goes without saying that there are put on a match between Paolino and Rickard.
It might be argued for the prince has already placed himself on take on a Negro challenger. And held the title and may regain Wills a chance at the honors—and matter what may be thought to the not seem a praiseworthy one. G Wills when he thought it might the heavyweight honors.

HERS DEFEATS J
BUT AT NEW MA
Boxing for five years placed itself in the rather unpleasant position of making Harry Wills stand out as the symbol of the white man's injustice to the Negro. Jack Dempsey was charged with dodging the Negro champion, the New York and other boxing commissions were placed in almost ludicrous light at various times, and the whole affair, became not a little obnoxious to those who believe in fair play. And now boxing seems to be inviting the annoying controversy all over again in the case of George Godfrey.
There is an indication that the giant Negro who knocked out Jimmy Maloney in the first round in Philadelphia is to be ignored in all future arrangements, for the eliminations to determine next year's challenger for the heavyweight crown.
This is not intended in any sense as a boost for the prowess of Godfrey. He is quite probably a better man in the ring than was Harry Wills during most of the years he so persistently chased Dempsey and so careful avoided taking any really dangerous heavyweights. Negro. This does not mean, by any stretch of imagination, that I think Godfrey is deserving of a place alongside the really great exponents of the manly art of his race such as Joe Gans, George Dixon, Peter Jackson, Sam Langford and others almost equally worthy of mention.
Having watched Godfrey in action several times I have formed none too high an estimate of his abilities. The first time I saw him was against Bill Tate four years ago in the old Garden. This looked like a case of seeing who was to find the soft spot on the canvas first and it was Bill who took out in the eighth round. At about that time he lost a couple of decisions to Jack Renault; apparently being outgamed, to put it plain. Of his more recent bouts with Martin Burke Bob Lawson, Jack Townsend and others we have watched him box around this vicinity, the least said the better.
Still, there is no getting away from this fact, that Godfrey defeated Maloney more decisively than the latter was ever beaten by any other heavyweight. Maloney was to have, been welcomed back by Tex Rickard into the next of the heavyweight eliminations. All of which will make the ostracizing of Godfrey stand out flagrantly. We may hear significant of how he had been forced to fight with Maloney because he overshadowed his opponents and could not get bouts unless he agreed to do business. You will be told with a wink of the eye that Jack Sharkey's decision over Godfrey was just a present:
In short, boxing is again playing its cards in such a way as to make it all ready for Godfrey to take up the Black Menace robes which Wills was finally forced to discard when it was found that he had been merely masquerading.
PAOLINO WANTED TO BOX GODFREY
Paolino Uczudun, according to an assurance that came not only from the Uczudun coach himself, but was concurred in, by his entire board of managers, was not only willing, but eager to take on Godfrey. The incentive, as it was explained to me, was this:
The European champion had forced the hand of Rickard by his spectacular K. O. of Harry Wills. If he could follow this up by taking the measure of the much-dodged Godfrey, it would wipe out whatever doubt there might be that Paolino had been accorded a none to fair deal in the match with Jack Delancy.
And now the Rickard representatives indicate that Paolino is to be matched with Jack Sharkey, and that Godfrey will have no place in the heavyweight argument. There will be many who will accept this fact as an inference that the Negro is not welcome because he is supposed to be too good. If Paolino and his managers are sincere, it goes without saying that there are many other promoters willing to out on a match between Paolino and Godfrey, even if it is taboo with Rickard.
It might be argued for the promoters that Champion Gene Tunney has already placed himself-on record to the effect that he will never take on a Negro challenger. And that the challenger, all the time he held the title and who may regain his crown; was never able to give Wills a chance at the honors—and Dempsey was always willing, no matter what may be thought to the contrary. Tunney's stand does not seem a praiseworthy one. Gene was willing enough to take on Wills when he thought it might prove a stepping stone to a chance at the heavyweight honors. And now that the honor has been acquired, if does not become the champion in many eyes to be so particular.
Dodging the issue in the case of George Godfrey merely helps to make out the holder of the big title nothing more than the white champion of the world.
TIGER FLOWERS DEFEATS JOE ANDERSON IN FAST BOUT AT NEW MADISON SQUARE
Making his first appearance in New York since he lost the middle weight title to Mickey Walker in Chicago, Tiger Flowers of Brunswick, Ga., scored a decisive victory over Joe Anderson of Kentucky in the feature ten-round bout at the New Madison Square Garden Thursday evening, September 1. Flowers gave his white opponent a good beating, and Anderson was badly cut and bleeding at the end of the fight.
Flowers seemed to have lost none of his speed and was raining blows from all angles. Anderson was game and willing but was otherwise outclassed. He had a cut over his right temple and a deep gash under his right eye. His nose and mouth were also bleeding at the end of the bout.
In the third round Anderson landed his most effective punch, a blow, over the right eye, which caused the optic to swell and annoy the Tiger considerably. Except for this blow and a few punches to the stomach, Anderson did not get over any damaging punches. The Tiger landed some beautiful blows to Anderson's face and head and had his opponent reeling as he bout ended. About 7,500 people witnessed the contest, paying $16,248. The fighters weighed 163 pounds for Flowers, and 159% for Anderson.

Giants Gain Double Victory As Montalvo Hits Three Homers
Playing against the veteran Paterson Silk Sox Sunday, September 4 the Lincoln Giants won a double header, getting the first game by a score of 13-2 and the second was a shutout, 7-0. Heavy hitting on the part of the Lincoln Giants batters was a feature of the two contests. Alonzo Montalvo, star outfielder, made three home runs and a two bagger in leading the attack: He was closely followed by Corporal Charlie Mason, who got three two base hits and a triple. Connie Rector pitched great ball in the final game, allowing but four scattered hits. The Silk Sox did not have a main to reach third base. Gisentaner pitched the Giants to victory in the first game and also helped the team along with a home run. The Philadelphia Hebrews and the Bronx Giants will be the opponents of the Lincoln Giants Sunday, September 11.

Cuban Stars Now Lead Eastern League
Alejandro Pompez' Cuban Stars have slipped into the lead in the Eastern Colored League and with the present lay-out for the remainder of the league schedule have an excellent chance to cop the second half hunting and thereby gain the opportunity to play a post season series with the Bacharach Giants for the league championship. While 'tis true that to date the Islanders have engaged in less contest, during the second half, than 'sany other club with the exception of the Brooklyn Royal Giants, Senor Pompez the Cuban mentor is making it known in no uncertain tones that the Stars are full filling their schedule as per staked out by the league salons.
Sunday-wash-outs due to rain has cut quite a swath in the Stars schedule. Most of these contests were scheduled at David's Saddam, Newark, N. J., where the Islanders have been holding forth as the home team. Playing only Sunday dates at home as several other of the league clubs, gives Pompez no opportunity to play off these postponed games. Then the Bradley Beach, N. J., proposition was thrown over by the local promoter that also affected the Cubans by a number of contests that were booked there. At the present time
with 8 wins and 6 losses the Cubans can need to lose five of their remaining twelve games, the Bacharach must win six out of nine to finish out in front. Both the Harrisburg Giants and Hilldale who are traveling at a .500 clip have an outside chance to win the flag.
New Players for Cubana.
Taking opportunity by a forelooks Senor Pompez has added some youthful talent to his fast traveling Stars that will not only help him in the present: dash for the pennant, but will add the ever necessary vigor to the veteran team. From the Habana Red 'Sox the Stars have secured Telelo Valgaz an eighteen year old youth who is fitting in at short stop, like Pelayo Chacon in the palmy days of his youth. The other newcomer is Paul Pedervel a young catcher, who is helping out iron man 'Fernandez with the receiving, chores. Both youngsters are, agile and have shown great bursts of speed on the base paths, especially Valgas who is credited with doing a hundred yards in less than ten seconds in full base ball atture.
Hilldale Shuts Out Harrisburg Giants
Philadelphia, Pa.-The masterful pitching of Phil Cockrell on Saturday afternoon, September 3, enabled the Hildale team to score a 3-0 victory over the Harrisburg Giants. A total of eight hits were allowed by Cockrell but he kept them so well scattered that it was the last inning before the visitors made more, than one hit in a single inning.
All three Hildale runs were made in one inning. After one man had been retired in the second inning, Judy Johnson forced Carr at second base for the second out. Bill Johnson hit a hot grounder straight at Cannady and reached first base when the Giants' third baseman, booted the ball. George Johnson then hit a three bagger to left field, scoring the two other Johnsons. He was scored on a double by Cockrell.

THEATRICAL JOTTINGS By Bob Slater
Leonard Harper knows how to pick 'em, for this week at the Lafayette Theatre he has Bill Robinson as the headliner, featuring Smalls and Mays, and Billy Higgins and Joe Byrd, which broke all records for the Lafayette Theatre. They had to give four shows to accommodate the people, and then had to turn hundreds away. As one of the novelties in the show, Bill Robinson has ten girls going up and down the steps, the same as he does, with him in the center. The audience just went wild over this stunt, and Bill had to make a speech at the finish. There are no "ifs and ands" about this artist, he is in a class by himself.
U. S. Thompson writes that his wife Florence Mills and self are now in Baden, Germany, taking a rest, also the baths. They will visit Berlin and Vienna before leaving.

"Pullman Dandies" At The Alhambra Theatre
The holiday crowds at the Alhambra. The theatre on Monday were so great that it was a case of "Standing room only" all afternoon and evening. "Throughout the week there was much merriment over the musical comedy "Lucky Numbers."
Monday, September 12, an entire new show will be presented. This time it is "Pullman Dandies," a satire on railroad life with its complications, domestic and otherwise. It is promised that it is full of good clean fun. The beauty chorus has many new and original evolutions.
New members added to the Tribuadours at the Alhambra are Bebe Mae Fritz and William Petray, who stages the dances and also appears in several novelty numbers, including a ballroom dance with dainty-Tiny-Alexander.
The photoplays, which are included in the program are always a special feature and the news of the world has its first presentation in Harlem at The Alhambra.
"Hard Boiled Haggarty At Douglass Theatre
Milton Sills made a study of conduct unbecoming to an officer and a gentleman, and practised some of it, in "Hard-Boiled Haggerty!" This picture, a Charles Brabin production for First National Pictures, coming Saturday to the Douglas Theatre, provides a unique characterization for Sills. Grim, relentless and heroic "ace" in sky battle above the German lines; he goes back to Paris to celebrate each victory. And in Paris—what a difference environment makes!
It is behind the lines in the colorful, war frenzied city of joy, that Sills practices "unbecoming conduct." He is prankless and humorously insubordinate, and gets into no end of comedic and dramatic trouble, until he meets romance in the person of a mysterious French girl.
Molly O'Day enacts the leading feminine, role, and some very humane and effective characterizations are given by Arthur, Stone, Mitchell Lewis, George/Fawcett, Yola d'Avril and Lucien Prival. Carey Wilson adapted the story from a magazine tale by Elliott White Springs, and Wid Gunning, produced it for First National. Hard-Boiled Haggerty, while one of Sills' most rugged roles, strikes a new note for, the star in the humor of his own characterization and the emphasis on its romance. Eriab personally directed the picture.
Roosevelt Theatre
A circus picture that provides a thrilling story plus an authentic big top background — that's "The Clown," the Columbia photoplay, which opens Saurad at the Roosevelt Theatre. Added to these merits are those of skillful direction and capable characterization.
The story is simple in outline. A circus man, whose wife and baby have made up his whole life, is sentenced to prison for the murder of his wife on the false charge of his partner. After 18 years, while yet in prison, he sees his daughter, who thinks him dead, and his old enemy, during a performance which the circus gives, at the prison. The sight of the man arouses his desire for
revenge. He escapes from the prison and goes back to the circus in clown make-up, so that he shall not be recognized. The events that follow—in which he gains his revenge and secures his daughter's happiness—but sacrifices his own life, are worked out logically, and move swiftly.
Director William James Craft has shown a restraint in the direction of this screen tale that adds to its effectiveness—and his handling of the

Warn Migrants About Overcrowding Akron, 0.
The Department of Industrial Relations of the National Urban League has issued a warning to prospective migrants from the southern and middle western states that a sudden unexplainable influx of labor into Akron, O, is apt to create an unemployment problem. The industries are on full time, but the city will be unable to take care of the unusually large number who are coming on the invitation of friends and relatives or for other reasons. Work should be obtained before coming to Akron or the migrant should be provided with sufficient funds to maintain himself until a job is secured.

CARL DITON OF PHILADELPHIA RETAINED AS PRESIDENT OF NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF NEGRO MUSICIANS AT ST. LOUIS MEET
The annual meeting of the National Association of Negro Musicians was held this year at St. Louis Mo., and from all reports, it was a most interesting session. New Yorkers were not much in evidence, and there is not one representative from the Big City among the list of officers. Nor does a careful scrutiny of the lists of artists participating in the various musical events disclose the name of any New York musician.
There is a local branch here that seems to function with healthy activity throughout the year, and it is probable that it followed the usual custom of sending representatives, but there has come no record of such action to this column.
What appeared to be the principal feature of the session was the awarding of the Wanamaker prizes for original compositions of Negro music, as told of in last week's issue of The Age. Another interesting affair was a welcome program at Poro College, where, incidentally, the delegates to the convention were luxuriously housed down their stay in St. Louis.
Mrs. Annie M. Pope Turpbo Malone, assisted by Jules R. Fields, representing the mayor of St. Louis, with other citizens, gave the musicians a cordial welcome, which was responded to by Mrs. Martha Anderson of Chicago. The Poro College Orchestra, composed of young women, under direction of James H. Harris, was one of the program's best attractions, and other St. Louis musicians taking part wert Mrs. Olivette Smith, Miss Harriet Robinson, James Harris, and the St. Louis Young Ladies' Glee. Club.
President Carl Diton of Philadelphia, in his annual address, stressed particularly the economic phase of the musician's career, declaring that greater support from the public will follow the greater spread of music appreciation. He urged the training of talented children in music, and deprecated parental discouragement which is so frequently apparent. Raising of the standard of concert programs was emphasized, and the president advised the discontinuance of musical efforts by artists on a non-payment basis.
The concert, he declared, is a necessity in any community, and the efforts of an artist are as much entitled to remuneration as are the labors of the blacksmith, carpenter, brickmason or any other worker.

Burton, S. C. Relations Are In Bad Condition Says 42-Year Resident
Burton, S. C.—The people of this section are encountering the hardest times in its history. The reporters informant has lived in this part of the state for 42 years and says he has never witnessed conditions as bad as those existing at the present.
Since the failure of the phosphate industry more than three decades ago, this country has developed into one of the greatest truck growing and farming centers of the state. Many farmers have grown fat from this industry and many farm hands and mechanics employed and all have enjoyed the benefits derived therefrom.
There were more than a dozen of these truck farms in operation in this location up to July of 1926 but we are hoping for better.
Conditions are generally poor when the Beaufort Bank, which supported these farmers, went under. This proved to be a stroke of paralysis to the general business of the entire locality.
There are hundreds of men, of all walks of life that are in need of work. The failure of Beauford Bank has dealt a severe blow principally to our people, as they formed a third of the depositors. The sad part of it is, that with all of the hardships and privations under which we are struggling, the average, poor Negro laborer is satisfied to spend all he has on some second hand automobile. After getting the white man to pay the first installment, he practically becomes a slave to the white man for it and very often he loses the car. From the tobacco section of the county, several people have gone North Among them is Mrs. Beasie Binyard and Mrs. Henrietta Haynes, who went to Trenton, N. I. Mr. and Mrs. Cassius Sanders, who have gone to Latrobe, Pa. are spending a two month's vacation with their children. Mr. Sanders is foreman of one of the largest truck farms around the tobacco section.

Just after leaving the Millerton station of the Harlem railroad, there is a little rivet, called the Webstuck, that can be seen running southward along the route of this road for ten or twelve miles, after which it disappears in a larger stream, known as Ten Mile River. There is nothing about the tiny stream, as it meanders its way, first on one side and then the other of the railroad tracks, through grassy meadows and partly abandoned farms, that would earn a second glance from the casual traveller up this way. But to the regular rider in this part of the country, it is an object of much interest.
There is something pictorially human about the small streamlet, something that reminds one of life. Just now the little river is enjoying a period of prosperity. The recent rains have made it strong, have given it power to disdain the knolls of grass, the brushwood driftings and rocky p贝bles that lie in its path. These are contending obstacles of less prosperous days, impediments to which no consideration is given. That they will have to be rocked with in lea yer days, doesn't bother the little stream now. It seems to say, sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof, today I am master.
But the opulence of the little river is merely transitory, With less rainfall its strength will wane. Then it will be seen trickling its way through the meadows, caoling the brushwood drifting and pebbles, to let it pass. It is during these days, the familiar observer watches its struggles to join its bigger brother.
These struggles are, indeed, valiant at times. A branch of driftwood here, a discarded automobile part there, and the revengeful pebbles, which have been augmented to a formidable mass, all challenge the passage of the little stream along its course. But somehow it manages to get by these enemies, and when seen again is placidly wending its way to the larger stream. Finally it is observed to make one leaping rush and then joins the waters of the stronger River. And as it loses its identity in the awirl, one thinks of life.
AN UNKIND SUMMER
Now that the vacationist have returned to their respective environs and vocations, the most charitable description that can be given of the past summer, is that it has been an unkind one. August, especially has been a rude month.
There hasn't been a weekend for the whole month in which it didn't rain. While this didn't effect the railroads to any great extent, it was certainly tough on weekenders, who, after spending a goodly sum of their money for railroad fare, had nothing but bad weather going and coming.
There is one New York railroad that handles an enormous camp travel during the season. Spending their vacation at camp has become extremely popular with young Jewish people of clerical vocation. There are camps for them all along the route of this particular road. And usually, every camp is situated on or near a lake. Aside from the health features of this mode of vacationing, the recreations of fishing, boating and other water sports are enjoyable features of the camp life.
Not only is it necessary for a woman to be respectable to remain a maid in the Pullman service, but she has to have other qualities besides. Why this is germane to her retention in this employment is somewhat enigmatic. And it is doubtful if there can be found one who, apart from being of good repute, who hasn't some outstanding features of character. In short, the Pullman maid is a high type of Negro woman.
To single out any particular one of these employees, as an example of high character, would be rather unfair to the others. And with no intention of making her a specific instance, it has been brought to the column's attention that Miss Evangeline Bardwell, who runs on the Twentieth Century between New York and Chicago, has won the respect and admiration of all the crews of this train. Not only do the men respect her for her womanly qualities, but they admire and respect her for characteristics that are not solely identified with sex.
Miss Bardwell had an ambition at one time to become a school teacher, but through misfortune in her family was unable to continue her studies for this vocation. Instead of mourning her ill luck, she began looking for employment, which she found with the Pullman Company as maid. And although she has been disappointed in attaining a career for herself, she is assisting an orphaned nephew to obtain one. Women of her type are responsible in a large measure for the circumspection used by the Pullman Company in the hiring of maids for its service.

Picked Up Here And There
Mrs. ROLAND R. ABRAMS
GIVES HUSBAND BIRTHDAY
SURPRISE.
Mrs. Roland R. Abram of, 2355 Hudson Boulevard, Jersey City, invited a few, friends to her, home on Sunday afternoon, September 4, to a birthday party which she gave in honor of her husband. On forty-second birthday, and characteristic of all men, he had forgotten about it being his natal day. So when he returned home, after a brief visit in the neighborhood, he was surprised to find the home filled with toys, games, and being made for entertainment, on a sumptuous scale.
After adjusting himself, to the occasion, Mr. Abrams got reminiscent of boyhood days, something all husbands do when their wives surprise them with a birthday party, and among the reminiscent of the old family bible of the Abrams' family. This well-known the date of marriage of Mr. Abrams' father, and mother sixty years ago, likewise the record of birth of each child of this union. It is an archive of family marriages, births and deaths, which are found in few northern" families these days. "The bringing out of the old Bible with its record was a reproduction that were too far back to be exotic for some of the guests to understand were nevertheless entertaining to the guests.
the surprised, husband, was an elaborate house robe, a gift from his wife. When he danced it, it gave him the appearance of a Chinese Mandarin. The manner in which he felt over this and the other gifts received may best be described in Mr. Abrams' own words: "It's so goofy for a thoughtful wife and nice friends."
WELL-KNOWN PULLMAN
MAN OF CAMBRIDGE, MASS.
GREATLY IMPRESSED WITH
THRIFT OF NEW JERSEY
Mr. and Mrs. Louis White of 301
Western avenue, Cambridge, Mass.
have returned to their home after
an extended vacation trip through
the States of New York and New
Jersey, their itinerary included
their visit to the Elks Convention, after which they
visited the principal summer
resorts of New Jersey. Among
these was Cape May, and from
Mr. White's account of his observations, he and Mrs. White were greatly impressed with the thrift of the New Hampshire, proprietor of the New Cape May Harbor. Said Mr. White, writing from Cape May:
Your corpsepondent is domiciled at Richardson's New Cape May Hotel, located within a 'few yards of the Pennsylvania depot. This is the garden spot of the world for tourists and pleasure seekers. The Richardson Hostelry has been serving the public for a quarter of a quarter of its perishable goods in the oldest Negro hotelhouses in the country. The success of its duration may be in a large measure attributed to the keen, insight and business sagacity of the owner, with the able, cooperation of his wife and Mr. Thomas Moles, manager of the hotel.
The hotel consists of twenty-three guest rooms, all of which are richly furnished throughout. In fact, the furnishing of this Negro hostelry compare favorably to other hotels. The cuisine is of the highest quality. In addition to his hotel inity, both in service and grade of treate, Mr. Richardson owns, and operates a theatrical whose seating capacity is about six hundred, and other high-quality hotels.
Communist Propaganda in India
A writer in the New York Times states that Mr. Shigaravelu Chetty an exponent of the labor cause in Madras, is carrying on a mischievous propaganda in connection with the reformation of Some religious temples in southern India!! Why should Mr. Karandikar (If I am not mistaken, this is the name) mislead the foreign readers? There is absolutely no such propaganda going on in India in the name of the Communist Party, why then blame the Communists?
The New York Times is the capitalist organ, and from its eleventh-story building, it would welcome some such tidings, but let me assure my American and foreign readers that there is no recognized Communist Party in India, of course there is one, but most of the members in this organization are the Government paid spies, who generally mislead the innocent persons and the only job that they are doing is to blackmail the party and some of the members. These spies were sent to Russia, and after their return from that Soviet land, they styled themselves as Communist of the first rank!! To what extent one should put faith in such reports, must be left to the ordinary layman to even understand.
Mr. Karandikar has disgraced the fair name of India by sending out to print absolutely false news, which equally the New. York Times is guilty of publishing under staggering headlines. Think of the devil, and it is there. Capitalists all the world over think Communist to be the gang of violence and they dread the very name 'Communist,' and to achieve their own ends they are responsible to spread such tyrannial news and spread havoc all the world over.
Odious Comparisons.
Among the twoes of Indian workmen, perhaps the most galliling is to be twitted with the poor efficiency of their labor. That, as things are, they are much less efficient than their comrades in the better organized factories of the west is but too true. But, as pointed out by Mr. N. M. Joshi with reference to the conclusions of the 'International' Textile Factory Workers' Delegation, it is not fair to judge labor solely by its results. A number of factors, besides the quality of labor, contribute to these results, such as the general organization of the factories, their equipment, and sanitation, skilled supervision, conditions of labor, and above all, the wages and consequent standard of life that workman can maintain.
It is not fair to blame Indian labor principally—for the notorious drawbacks in most of these factories in India. From his experience of the Indian worker in American factories, Mr. Joshi is convinced that in a Lancashire mill the Indian would easily equal the native." He could say with greater confidence that the Lancashire working in an Indian mill, getting the same wages, "would fare much worse than the Indian did."
The Lancashire-worker would break down or rebel in a week under Indian conditions, if he would care to accept them even as an experiment. The charge of loitering, about brought against Indian workmen is the most heartless. Such "loitering"; is either a sign of fatigue or the body's instinctive conservation of energy. "How can any one," asks Mr. Josli, "continue to work for ten hours, without showing such sign?" Let the well-fed, well-housed manager at the desk, with a fan over him, answer the question.
The Satraks Aversion
The Indian intelligentsia are the betenoir of this-tex-satrap, and he makes no secret of his strong aversion for them. Indeed, the whole article is an unrelieved rig-marole and tirade against the sterling character has done much toward making Capé May an enjoyable resort for Negro tourists and vacationists."

small, oligarchy of Westernized politicians". He vigorously denounces the "daring constitutional experiment to, establish British Democratic Institutions" (which of course are sham. He says: "Outside the small oligarchy of westernized politicians to whom this experiment has given power and place, it has few supporters. It is giving British India not the Pax Britannica but a sword."
After applauding the presumptuousness of Lord. Reading in firing a Partilian shot at the Nizam and the Native States, and holding up that titular figure-head, the Haharaja of Benares, as the best ideal of Princely India, this spent volcano of British Imperialism argues in this wise.
"If the British Government insists on its responsibility for the welfare of the people in the States, as emphasized in Lord Readings' despatch to the Noxam, surely it is under a reciprocal obligation to avoid measures in British India which have already caused serious mischief there and which admittedly most affect the welfare, of the States."
The entire burden of O'Dwyers song is that when the time comes for the "Parliamentary enquiry in 1929, with a view to the experiment being modified, extended or restricted," the course of the Indian struggle for Swarajya (independence) should be diverted into different channels," presumably "towards a representative system on lines suited to Indian traditions"!!
The dictum "that the States represent Swarajya as known to the East," is a plain hint, to the British authorities to adopt a frankly reactionary and repressive policy, and in this noble attempt of "the building up of the new constitutional edifice," the States should be joint workers—and perhaps contrustees. It is amazing that such a screed should appear in a journal that is supposed to be an organ of progressive Liberalism.
Labor's Housing Condition.
The housing condition of the Indian labor is graphically described by some one who states that in a monsoon, the latrines and lavatories are flooded with street waters, and their poor straw huts are like sailing boats, and the inhabitants pass days and nights, not only without food and water, but without sleep, and have to stand in flooded areas for days together. They have no clothes nor fire, to dry their wet skins. They suffer from cold and meet death sometimes.
This is their condition, and if anyone is taking their cause, he is styled as a communist (mark not humanitarian) and Government keeps its eye on him till he is either forced to leave this sort of service or till he is imprisoned without any trial, and meets death in the palace of the guardian of law and order, which is hardly six feet!

When hivies are caused by any one of these food idiosyncrasies, of course the best treatment is to eat food. However, if bb preventive drugs are not used, the patient should take a, cathartic, and under-ordinary conditions, he will soon be better. The diet should be light.
Sometimes in young children the case may be very severe, causing loss of appetite, disturbances of sleep; general irritability and restlessness. Give the child a catabatic, put him on a light diet, considering mostly of liquids. Small bottles of soda, the hard and soda, are often helpful. In the case of intense itching, ateateate of sine powder applied after a bran or soda bath may bring relief.
If the case is very severe, or if it requires frequent attacks, consult a doctor.
Care Of The Skin
Many skin diseases can be prevented, or at least can be discovered in their early stages and thus cured before they have made great headway. By keeping a few simple rules in mind we may all do much to save ourselves unnecessary suffering and inconvenience. The skin naturally becomes covered with dust and dirt during the day. It should, be bathed thoroughly, and be washed daily, in order to remove this dust end the perspiration from the surface of the skin. In doing this we may also remove germs of skin diseases.
People who patronize the barber and beauty shops should, choose places which are clean. All combs and brushes should be thoroughly fluffed, and each patron should be given clean towels for use.
It must be remembered, however, that the condition of the skin depends largely on the physical condition and is an indication of one's general health. Keep your resistance high and see that you are getting the right kind of food, enough sleep outdoor exercise and daily bathing and you will be more comfortable. Outdoor exercise, will do much to help keep the skin in good condition. When at the beach care should be taken to avoid severe sunburn. It is best to expose one's self gradually—that is, for a few moments only, on the first day and for a longer-time each day until the skin comes used, to the sun's rays. Contact with poisonous plants, such as try should be avoided, if possible. Often a thorough bath with plenty of soap and water directly after exposure to the plant, will prevent poisoning.
If you notice any, kind of sore that seems persistent anywhere on your body, consult a doctor as soon as possible. Skin cancer and other serious diseases which show up in a way may be prevented or cured, if treated in time.
Scabies, or the "itch," is a skin disease which is very prevalent where people live in close contact. This is contagious and should be treated a once. If it is apt to break between the fingers and toes, around the ankles and the buttocks.

Asking $10,000 For

Under Principal Hubbard, the school has 401 acres under intensive cultivation, 150 of which are owned by the school. Last year, with only student labor, the crops included 48 bales of cotton, 3063 bushels of sweet potatoes, 4580 carrots of carrots, 1000 syrup and there were sold snap beans to the amount of $810.40. In addition, the student body was fed from the farm products. There were 1281 pupils enrolled last year, with twenty teachers.
