Bishop R. G. Barrow Defended By Barbadians In New York
Will Masons Antagonize Teagle?
Barbadian Society Officials State That Bishop Barrow Was Duly Named Delegate To Pan-African Congress
Vice-Pres Jackman Refutes Charge Made Last Week That Prelate 'Posed' As A Barbadian Representative--Approve Barrows' Views
Criticism of utterances before the Recent Pan-African Congress attributed to Bishop R. G. Barrow of Christ Cathedral, African Orthodox Church, Classon avenue, Brooklyn, by Percy Small. of 200 West 134th street, Manhattan, published in The Age of September 10, has aroused the prelate's fellow Barbadians to his defense.
The opinion attributed to Bishop Barrow, taken exception to by Mr. Small says that the Barbados would be benefited by American embassal Hilly Mr. Spreakupled that "Barbadians are not for sale, and denied that the churchman was a component representative of the natives of that island.
Bishop Barrow Is Not Under Bond
In an article published in The Age of September 10, Percy
Was. Centralia Delegate.
Mr. Smaller, director, the officers of the Sons and Daughters of Barbaria, the President C. Jackman of the 135th Street, make reply, asserting that Bishop Barlow was duly accredited as the Barbadian representative at the Pan-African Congress by action of the society. In response to an invitation from officials of the Congress, and that Barlow's opinion that the economic condition of the British West Indies would be improved under direction of the U.S. government, was endorsed by that organization.
Said Mr. Jackman, Mr. Small states that Bishop Barrow, posed as a delegate from Barbados at the recent Pan-African Congress. May inform you that Bishop Barrow is one of the Daughters of Barbados Society of the U. S. A. Inc., and he appeared before the Congress at the invitation of its officers and a daily accredited representative of the Sons & Daughters of Barbados Society, Inc. to whom a request was sent, asking for a delegate to the Congress.
What Bishop Barrow Said.
"Responsible Barbarian opinion is agreed that if you ask anything about Barbados and things Barbadian, that man is Bishop Barrow. That is, why he was sent, I am vice-president of the Sons' & Daughters of Barbados Society, Inc., and, according to the bishop's report, rendered to us the drawing the recent history of the United States government of the islands of the sea, the economic condition of the British West Indies would be considerably improved under the tutelage of the United States government, agree with the bishop, unreservedly and am willing to debate the question with them, they are familiar with the economic history of the British West Indies.
Mr. Small sets a 'all worked up over the enawalment' of the laboring class in Barbados, by the 'United States if the island came under the stakes of the U. S. A. He learns that he 'reduced' to slavery. In this course would like ask Mr. Small. How do he do it down? Mr. Small sets himself up as a spokeman for Barbarians, when we of the 'Sons of Daughters of Barbados Society' inc. who are recognized by the Government of Barbados as representative of Barbarian thought and living in the United States, do not know and have never 'heard' of Mr. Small.
Bishop Brookes' Reply.
In his statement, Mr. Small referred also to the *Brooklyn church activities* of *Blahop*. Barrow, naming one of his assistants, *Blahop* brokers, as aiding him in the *cunning of intelligent thought activity*. A lengthy communication has been received from Blahop George S. A *Brookee* of 203 Myrtle avenue, Brooklyn declaring that the statements attributed to Mr. Small are an erroneous impression constructed the work of the *African Orthodox Church* in the *Brooklyniscopate*.
Bishop Barrow Is Not Under Bond
In an article published in The Age of September 10, Percy Mallall of West Virginia 19th street charged that Ilionne G. B. Barrow, of Philadelphia, African Orthodox Church, G. C. Barrow, of Philadelphia, issued this notice that the law is under the supervision of a $1,500 bill pending deportation proceedings by the immigration authorities, and that his status is still in abeyance.
This allegation. The Age. is informed, is incorrect. Information now at hand is that Bishop Barrow obtained his unconditional reLEASE after a hearing in the Federal Court before Judge Knox, who sustained the writ and ordered the immediate release of Bishop Barrow. There was not the slightest evidence in his record to justify any proceedings on part of the Labor Department for his deportation.
This is said to be a matter of court record.
drawn show no malicious intent.
Bishop Brookes asserts that the episcopate now in possession of Negro churchmen in Brooklyn came direct, through the dispensation of the Most Rev. F. E. J. Lloyd, archbishop and primate of the American Catholic Church, in 1921.
Bishop Brookes charges that there is 'someone behind hiding Mr. Small, who has personal reasons for attacking Bishop Barrow, an that Mr. Small "does not know whereof he speaks. He deprives others of his power." Mr. Small to Bishop Lloyd as "the white man from" Chicago, "expressing himself as follows: "Men who are always calling: public attention to 'white men' in 'things great or small, things that are, sometimes major but most of the time minor, serve a questionable purpose, in this country to which we have all come, that we may be the free air of those We men are of established in helping the general cause of goodwill, which is the ultimate desire of all who are surely conscious."

Church circles in Brooklyn, particularly among the Baptists, are considerably stirred by the reopening in which the Rev. C. Matthews, for a number of years pastor of Berenac Baptist Church, Bergen street, took unto himself a new wife, his first wife having died just a few months ago and then tendered his resignation as pastor to take effect immediately.
In the meantime, the minister and his new wife are away enjoying their honeymoon. The first Mrs. Matthews died Thursday, April 7, after an illness of several months. After her death, the second marriage has not been made public. The new bride is one of the young ladies in the Bundie family, one of Brooklyn's oldest family groups.

"None of your business," she replied, "and you had better, go about you business, 160."
As she heared the corner of Seventh avenue, the man approached and asking purpose by an apparently innocent person. "Which way do I go to read, 140th street?" Keep on, up the street and you'll find it, "it was the reply as Mrs. Harris turned away.

And then a police officer came on the scene. On learning from Mrs. Harris the cause of the trouble, corroborated by scores of bystanders, the officer started to put the man under arrest.

Brooklyn was severely cut about the neck and face by broken glass. Wright was a passenger in the taxi and was enroute to the station when the accident occurred. He was thrown against the side of the car, and received painful bruises on the head and left knee.
The three men were rushed to Harlem Hospital in taxis, where they were treated by Dr. Salero, a house physician. They returned to their homes later.
Several women, who were on the sidewalk as the time, narrowly escaped being crushed, beneath the funeral car when it turned over. The call was from the West 135th street station, but no arrest was made, as the cause of the accident had not been determined.
The funeral car, which was badly damaged, came east to the garage, and the dead bodies were transferred to another car, and ended up in Long Pennsylvania Station.
LIBERTY HALL IS AGAIN SOLD AT PUBLIC AUCTION
For the second time within a year, Liberty Hall, home of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, made famous by Marcus Garvey, was sold at auction to Casper Holstein for $75,000. The sale was held by Joseph P. Day, auctioneer, at the Real Estate Exchange, 56 Vesey street on Wednesday.
When the property was sold at auction last summer there were two factions of the U. N. L. A., and one of the factions secured an order from the Supreme Court, setting aside the sale on the ground that the auctioneer refused to accept the money for the debt, for which the property was being sold.
The Real Estate Holding Corporation recently secured a judgment against the Association for another benefit procedure proceedings. Last week they secured an order from the Supreme Court which permitted the sale on Wednesday.
The purchase was subject to a prior mortgage which remains unpaid, $10,000 principal and interest; a second mortgage of $2000, and a third of $15,600 principal and interest. One of these mortgages was held by the Metropolitan Baptist Church, from which the hall was purchased, and another by Casper Holstein, who at various times since Mr. Garvey's incarceration and died, has purchased, and another by Casper Holstein, although not a Garveyite, has been interested in having this property 'remain in the hands of Negroes.
The property was sold to 'Mr. Holstein through his attorneys, Jacobson and Jacobson, 299, Broadway. The hall is located on West 18th street, near Lenox avenue, and covers a plot about 100 x 300 feet.
Joseph Daniels Dead
Jersey City, N. J.-Joseph Daniels, retired Pullman porter, died at his late residence, 1846 Academy street, on Monday, September 5, after a long illness. He was born in Halefax Co. Va., January 17, 1860, and entered the Pullman service in 1870.
He was aware of his approach and managed all of his affairs, including funeral services. He was a member of King Solomon Lodge, No. 19, F. & A.

For�zhalhs, the "gainst skeleton" has stood on West 144th street, without the sound of hammer or tapping of a rivet; due, it is said, to the lack of money with which to buy the glifters. It was thought that when the former mason's monastery is. Sullivan was deposed, that his successor, David T. Teagle, would immediately devise some feasible plan by which the completion of the structure could be accomplished.
The against Sullivan for grand ladders was a series of making the race—it is said unless the "unanimous choice of the grand ladders" But Teagle was nominated and made the race, his election following.

Supporters of the Sullivan plan, financing the proposition are: The declaring that the temple project is be saved if the administration of a acceptable propositions, that been made. The builders are: willing to complete the hallside taking a first mortgage for two years. This proposition, it is reported, will be completed.
The Bond Sale Project.
According to available information, the Grand Lodge of the State of New York, guaranteed payment of the temple building, contract price, and to this end, under "Sullivan, a plan was" designed by which each member in the grand lodge district would buy building bonds, paying at rate of $1 per week, the money to be applied to the building fund. It was estimated that 5,000 members would in this manner pay in $20,000 monthly to the treasury, aggregating $480,000 in two years, more than enough to finish the building. But it is alleged that Grand Master Teague was opposed to the bond plan and it is charged that he did not purchase a bond. It is reported that he had made a pre-convention agreement not to run day. September 5, from Bethesda Baptist Church, in Rev. John T. White, officiating, P. M. Brotherhood, led by Secretary, P. Sample, were honorary pall bearers.

D. A. Walker In December
The engagement of Mia Carrie Young, 202 West 140th street, to Mr. Descott Arnold, Walker, 228 West 140th street, was announced on December 1, 1927. Mia Young is a prominent member of Mother Zion Church; Mr. Walker is a member of the Affirmative Action Church, so she, affirmative action, is a member of the
against Sullivan for grand jury. Sullivan was averse to making the race, it is said, unless he was the unanimous choice of the grand judge. But Beagle was nominated and made the race, his election following.
Temple Can Be Seed
Supporters of the Sullivan plan of financing the proposition are now declaring that the temple project can be saved if the administration will accept feasible propositions that have been made. The builder will be willing to build the building taking a first mortgage for two years. This proposition, it is reported, was put up to Counsel James Watson attorney for the directors, by the board of directors and 'Mr. Knapp' the builder, who is also a mason, but they received no reply.
These men are urging that as Grand Master Touge has failed to devise a more satisfactory plan, the bond purchase on a $1 a week basis ought to be supported. It is pointed but that during Grand Master Sink livan's administration $39,000 was raised, but up to the present it has only been paid in the form of Grand Master Touge. In addition, abbreviation to what are credited as reliable reports, liens have been interspersed against the building, the building trades, antagonized, and the mortgage of holding companies frightened with regard to all colored property in Hawaii.
Those who approved the Sullivan plans are asking, as to what has Touge done toward progress of the Order. There are three members of the present board of directors who holdovers to the property of the minister H. J. DePasco, Harvey Williams and Simmons—and there is a report going the round that these men were not present at the Air gust meeting because of a bit of sharp practice which they were unaware of until too late.
Us. Order In- Danger?
The regular August meeting, according to this report, was postponed from the regular night until August 20 by the grand-master, who gave a reason that his postoffice duties would prevent him from being present on the scheduled, night. But, when the three, holdover members put in their appearance on August 20 they were informed by Secretary Carr that a special meeting had already been held and so there was no need of holding the August 20 meeting. The men are wondering why 'these were not waiting at the door' as it is the intent belief and cording to some of the members that the mason throughout the state will freely rally to buy the building bonds, at $1 per week, especially if the bonds are guaranteed to pay 1 per cent interest until redeemed.
A prominent member of the Orders who has been active in trying to put the building project over, expressed himself rather persistently in respect of these recent developments, and
Major Moody Staten, who for the past four years has been in charge of the Liberian Frontier Forces, Liberia, West Africa, is in this country on leave of absence, and is the guest of his brother and family, Mr. and Mrs. Ira Staten of 244 West 137th street. Major Staten is accompanied by his wife, Mrs. Lulu Staten, and their 18-months old son, Moody jr. They also brought with them a ten months old chimpanzee, Venus, given him by the native soldiers as a token of their esteem
There are comparatively few chimpanzees in captivity, largely because they usually grieve themselves to death when taken from their kind. But Venus was captured when only two months old and has known human beings all her life. She stands at present 18 inches high and weighs 30 pounds. When fully grown she may be five feet, tall, and weigh more than a hundred pounds. A chimpanzee reaches its full growth when seven years of age.
Road Building Progress.
According to Major Staten, Liberia is making exceptional progress in road building and other internal improvements. He praised the work of the Frontier police, organized in 1922 by the late Col. Charles Young.

An Emergency Board
Editor of The New York Age:
The so-called Brotherhood of
Sleeping Car Porters has spread a
report that would exercise every

States in an emergency
board by the President of the
United States, to investigate the entire
matter, and "settle the dispute."
Under the provisions of Section 10
of the Railway Labor Act certain
conditions must exist before such
an emergency board may be
appointed. *Earths, that is, a dispute*

Detroit, Mich. At the session on Friday night of the National Baptist Convention, Inc., the Rev. Dr. L. K. Williams, president, Dr. Robert Russa Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, Ala., declared that the church today is facing the greatest opportunity which has come to it since its establishment by Jesus Christ, since the breaking up of old ways and the searching out for new as a result of revolution-
Dr. Motton said in part: "The church is facing to-day the greatest opportunity in the world since its establishment by Jesus Christ. The stations of the earth are in conflict with each other. The peoples of the earth are growing increasingly old. Old standards are being broken down, ways are changing, old ideas are changing to new. Men and women of every walk and station are thinking as never before. They are thinking new thoughts. A great many of them are revolutionary. It is this breaking up of old ways and a searching out for new that presents to the Church of Christ its greatest opportunity in history.
Final Solution of Ills
"The church has believed it has the final solution of the iills of mankind; it has believed it can bring peace to restless, troubled minds; it has believed it can put an end to strife and warfare.
"Now is the chance for it to assert its power, to present its cure and to give mankind the panacea for its iills. Its message to the world will not be a new one. It will be the same old message of 'peace on earth, good will toward men,' or, as the revised version has its 'peace on earth to men of good will.' Its message will not be new; it has 'been preaching this message' for nearly two-thousand years, but to make it effective the church must itself begin the straightforward practice of the new way which will set an example for all the rest of the world to follow.
"The truth of the matter is that there is as much rivalry, antagonism and disunion within the Church of Christ, self as there is on the outside. Today it does not break out in bloodied, but there was a time when the different sofa's of the church were "goblous to go to war in support of itself, in particular articles of faith; and it is a singular fact that as compared with other great religions of the world there is no more division among the different elements of the Christian faith than among any others.
"It has been my privilege recently to see many parts of the world while seeking the improvement of my health. On those travels I had the opportunity of making some observations about religious faith and印p practices. The thing that struck me most probably was that among so-called other peoples their religious faith them to gether as a unit whatever the other differences; but among Christians it seems they are divided more by their different religious ideas than by anything else.
"It seems that Christians hang to, gather better in business, in politics, in secret societies and similar activities than they do in church affairs. The records how there are more than seventy-five kinds of Methodists in the world and about seventy-five different kinds of Baptists; about thirty different kinds of Presbyterians, and more than twenty-five kinds of Lutherans. And 'ever in the Catholic Church there are at least a dozen different varieties. Certainly this is no example to set before the world by an organization that professes to teach the unity and brotherhood of all mankind. I do not believe the Church will ever be effective in assembling the world until it is able to practice itself if the gospel which it preaches.
"This is equally true: for 'black people as for white people. I, myself, am a Baptist and have always been. I still hold my membership in the Macedonia-Baptist Church in Prince Edward County, Va. But I want to say here and now that I am not the kind of a Baptist that finds it impossible, to recognize a Methodist as mother; not the kind of a Baptist that believes that only Baptists will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven. Indeed, I am not one of those who believes that will enter into the so-called Christians will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven. For I am met and, know personally' men and men of other religious faiths whom I believe will as surely enter into the Kingdom of Heaven as anybody here to-night.
Some Good Christians
"Some of those whom I know are Hindus in India, some are Confucians in China, some are Buddhists in Japan. Then there is that, great friend and benefactor and lover of all mankind, Mr. Julius Rosenwald of Chicago. In religion he calls himself a Jew. But I do not know any man, who has any more of the spirit of Jesus (Christ than Julius Rosenwald. For myself, I shall be perfectly content at the last to go to that place which God Himself should assign Julius Rosenwald;

parts of the world, and representations of the great races of the world tives of the great races of the world. The message that they brought back was this: That until the Christian nations: of the earth were willing to practice in their every day relations with the other peoples of, the earth the principles which, their missionaries were preaching in other lands, they might as well stop sending out missionaries for their message was of no effect.
"I am just a layman. I am not a preacher. But I believe I am a Christian. And it seems to me that more than all the hymns, more than all the prayers, more than all the sermons and all the theology, is this matter of living at peace with one's fellows and cooperating with men and women of all faiths, of all sects and of all races, in making the Kingdom of Heaven to come on earth, in every possible way, to make this world a better place for others to live in.
I think this is what Jesus had in mind. when He taught us to pray: 'Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven.'

Out-Of-Town Men Give Approval To Action of N. Y. County Committee In Naming Fred R. Moore For Alderman
Deserves Honor By Reason of Long Service In Cause of Righteousness; Safe and Sound Leader of Race; Won't Forget Friends
Endorsements of the candidacy of Fred R. Moore for nomination as Republican candidate for election to the Board of Alderman of New York City from the 19th Aldermanic District, continue to come from all sections, all classes and all races, by letter, wire and verbally.
From his summer home at Capaholic, Va., Dr. Robert Ruska, Moton, principal of 'Tuskegee Institute, Tuskegee, Ala., long-time a personal friend of Mr. Moore, writes as follows:
nominated as Alderman from the 19th A.D. We know you will stand up and fight for every inch of the way for all that is due our group. We regret that we cannot
I wish first to congratulate you on your nomination for Alderman from your district. This is a compliment which, by long service in the cause of righteousness and justice for all races and peoples, you richly deserve. I wish for you a very happy and successful issue out of the coming campaign. "If I can be of any service to you, I know you will feel free to let me know."
From Long Island Realtor.
From Long Island, L. S. Reed,
successful real estate broker, with
offices in Corona, writes:
"I truly hope that you will get
the support from the people you
have served for so many years. in
your campaign."
A letter comes, from Burlington,
K. C. with a heading showing that
it comes from the "Founder of the
National Association" of "Negro
Tailors, Designers and Dressmakers,
endorsing Fred R. Moore for the
Board of Aldermen as a "safe
and sound leader of the race, capable
of holding any office within
gift of government—a pure leader
and race man from start to finish
easily reached by all classes." The
letter is signed M.·K. Tyson, exe-
cretary and continues as follows:
"I have been informed through the New York Age, one of the leading colored papers in the United States, that my good friend, Fred R. Moore, has been named for nomination to the Board of Aldermen of New York City. I have known Fred R. Moore for more than sixteen years. On several occasions he has toured the South, speaking to large audiences. He has been a conspicuous figure in America for more than thirty years, holding at all times the interests of his race at heart. He is well known in the South and throughout the entire country. He has rendered splendid service to the race in many ways.
Will Not Forget Friends.
"Fred R. Moore" is not a man who, when elevated to office, will forget his friends and the interest of the race. When you become to know him you will learn to love him—He will always state the facts in the case.
"During the eighth annual session of the National Association of Negro Tailors, Designers and Dressmakers, held in New York the first week in August, Moore was one of the principal speakers of the program. His event word was of vital importance to the Negro race.
The voters of Harlem will make to mistake in electing him to office. The pastors of Harlem churches made no mistake in pledging him their full support in the coming campaign for his election to the Board of Alderman. "I predict his election."
From South and West.
From "Ole Virginity" comes a letter from Robert Williams of Suffolk famons purveyor of Virginia hams and bacon, who writes: "Me dear Friend Fred:—Your friends in this "neck of the woods" are delighted that you have been

And from the "Smoky City" of Pennsylvania mining region, Pittsburgh, there comes word from the Rev Scott Wood, secretary of the University Law Association, and formerly visar in charge of St. Luke's P.

"This is the first opportunity that I have had to send you my congratulations upon your nomination for the office of Alderman.

Your success will give. new hope and inspiration to the entire race. While I have not a vote, thank God I have a voice and a pen both of which are at your service. And, while my bank account is not large, I am ready to share a position of that which I have the process is.

And Mrs. Annie Plummer, an eenthusiastic Daughter Elke, writes from her sick bed at her home, 172 West 133rd street (care Holsten), as follows; "I am writing from my sick bed to pay you my deeply felt compliments on the plain, everyday speech, made by you - on Monday, August 27, at St. Mark's Church. If we had more men and women leaders of our race not afraid to speak the truth from the heart we would rule the world. But ahl so drew and far between. However, I know you can't realize how much good your speech has done among the people. Keep lie up and may you have success in all your undertakings.
"Some good Samaritan brought me one of the local papers and tap in a corner I saw that J. Pinley Wilson is an excellent mollender. God grant that we may be able to produce some Pinley Wilson and truth-telling Pinley Moore and the work will still go marching on. If they would stop, look and think that with all our Democratic pinley himself, with his bishops, political job holders and all, after giving eight months fixed the Grattan Law so as to convene here and bearded the lion in his den. The ban was lifted for one, will not stop there until it is erased altogether, unifying all organizations we are under a ban. "Another thing: You are not only writing and speaking, but going about doing good, which is all God requires. "Again accept my congratulations and may Fred and Finley live long doing for humanity everywhere."
Elder R. C. Lawson Speaks.
And Elder R. C. Lawson, bishop of Church of Christ of the Apostolic Faith, 52-56 West 133rd street adds his word of endorsement as follows: "It affords me no small degree of pride and pleasure to know that you are the nominee for Alderman of your district. I will serve as a member of your committee when and wherever I can. I am glad the district managers and leaders have at last selected a man of our race with some gumption and grit, who will not be afraid to speak up for the right of the race he represents."

LOST POCKETBOOK GAME FINDS MANY WILLING VICTIMS But Law Grabs Three Operators and They Get Workhouse Terms
Barnum's saying that "A sucker is born every minute" seems to be exemplified by the manner in which gullible persons permit their cupidity to overcome their judgement and causes them to fall vittims to the timeworn swindle of the "dropped pocketbook" game. Edna Freeman of 263 West 123 street went to the Postal* Savings Account window and drew out all of her savings, $57, which she turned over to Fairmount Corbin of 66 West 131st street, as security in the division of spooks coming to her from an alleged pocketbook which Corbin had picked up, and to which another man, Corbin's confederate, had called her attention. Of course, when they got her money both men disappeared.
Miss Freeman did not get her money back, but when Detectives Bauerschmidt and Crosby picked up Corbin, she positively identified him as the picker-up of the alleged pocketbook at 126th street and Seventh avenue, which book was said to have contained $5,000. And so when Corbih was arraigned before Magistrate Albert H. Vitale in the Washington Heights Court on September 9, he saved the trouble of a hearing by pleading guilty and was held without bail for indictment by the grand jury.
Get Workhouse Sentences
Two other operators of the pocketbook game had no trouble in finding victims who were lured by their wiles when they played the game on 125th street between St. Nicholas and Eighth avenues, but they reckoned without Detectives Bauerschmidt and Crosby, who are attached to the 16th Precinct, but were, workin' in the 14th Precinct Territory on September 9.
"Knocko Foot" George Williams of 313 West 138th street, and Johnnie Reed of 200 West 132nd street, both with criminal records, were bringing the little game over with every indication of success, but the officers stepped in and that put an end to their efforts. For Sunday, September 11, Magistrate Vitale sent "Knocko Foot" to the Work House on Welfare Island for sixty days, while Reed received ninety days for his share.

PROBLEMS OF LIFE AND DEATH:
The: froblems of distasé and excéssive
mortality amiong Negroes have long

September, the basis for these doleful
pivdictions was found in the transition

Clie War, when the. plight of the freed-
co was, indeed pitiful. He described
tila situation, as follows

kal with a marked ‘capacity for 4 tong

As a proof.of this gain in health and

This unfavorable reaction which may
only be tenforary, possibly furnished
the' basis for the pessimistic feport ‘on

Elks convention in New York, by. Dr.
William J. Thompkits of Kansa3 City,
This report declared that’ “Negro health

‘Neverthéless, Dr. Thompkits said that
the mortality rate is being steadily te-

the towns and villages where Negroes
live, Dr. Dublin noted “evidence éPintel

the race will be best served by remaining
largely on the farms, and staying in th
South, “where adjustments will make hi

Dr. Dublin's estimate as to the extent
of the increase of the American Negro ir
the future is purely conjectural, but h
suggests that the nmximum number o
the race in this country will be fifteen mil

LAUGHTER AS AN ANTIDOTE
| ‘Re popular conception of. the Negro,
also embodied on the stage and screen
as well as in American literature, is a
hock individual who laughs
and grins, with or without the ‘slightest
provocation, The old time Negro min-
strels were patterned on this idea and it
was only of recent years, with the arrival
of the blues, that vein of comic melan-
cholia was injected into the boisterous
gaiety demanded of blackface comedians,
Still, the conception of a happy childlike
race given to irresponsible gleefulness
and irradiating chuckles of delight over
the mere fact of: living, is carefully pre-
served as representing what some dra-
matic critics style the true"Negro. The
black man was presumed to be happy be-
cainse he laughed, +
Recently there rose a London univers-
ity professor with the declaration that the
really happy man never laughs. It is
only the discontented man who, really
laughs, which leads Prof. Aveling to in-
fer that laughter like tears is ugly, being
made up uf contortions and: grimaces
whic mask ‘a hard or-sellish mind. If
thé professor had taken the Negro into
consideration, he probably would have
added that Inughter inight also be the
mask for other emotions, involving inen-
tal suffering. ‘The reasow given why the
really happy man seldori or never laughs,
is that laughter. like weeping, is a relief
of mental tension and truly happy peo-
ple are not overstrung, And yet it Is
also clalmed that the uthappy man can.
not laugh, because he ia too much wrap-
ped up in his own misery to see the droll
side of life a0 it affects him... Laughtar
ie defiied-as an antidote to symoethy. a
Geviee to banish care. This may account
for’its cultivation among Negroes.
. The London ‘prétessor also asserted
that laughter-is a distinctive trait of ihu-
‘man beings aloné, no other animals be-
ing able to laugh except the hyena, whose
laugh, like that of many ‘humans, was
pronounced a snarl. Some American au-
‘thotities on psychology disagreed with
these conclusions.and Dr, Bolton of Phif-
adelphia stoutly muintalned that dogs,
cows, horses and ‘monkeys indulge in this
expréssion. He defined laughter as a
form of expression denoting triumph,
found among aitias as well 4s human
beings. Wat is generally called laughter
is ‘the éxpression of 'a coarse Emotion,
which .cultute réfings to the form of a
stile. Weeping and laughing were pro-
néwiiced not akin, despite the London
professor, ctying being defiried ag a form
of emotional ¢xpression resorted to in
case of injury. Dr. Bolton also termed
fauighter an expression of vicarious tri-
ump, a8 the essénce of most humor is
the enjoyment of some one élse’s discom-
fiture,
‘While British and American author-
ities appear to disagree in some respects
as to the.ignificance of laughter, its pop-
ulerity cannot be disputed, whether it is
4 mask for despair, a note of vicarious
triumph -or a relief from ‘mental stress.
Even the pocts have celebrated its vir-
taes in the lines usually attributed to El:
fa Wheeler Wilcox, But the authorship
hot which was disputed by one Colonel
Joyce. They rin something like this:
Lang, and the world laaghs with you,
Weep, aad you weep alone:
This drear ald earth must borrow its mirth,
Tt hag sorrow enough of Its own,
And those who can make laughter for
the world today can be. sure of a rich
feward.
‘OPPORTUNITY OF THE CHURCH.
In his address made betore the Nation-
al Baptist Convention at ,Detroit last
week, Dr. R. R. Moton, principal of Tus
Kegee Institute; declared that .the church
today ia facing its greatest opportunity
since its establishment. The restless.
ness of the peoples, the breaking down
of old standards and the-search for new
ways have emphasized the need for
peace and putting an end to strife. The
church: has the chance to present a cure
for all this, by enforcing the old message
of “peace on earth, goodwill to men.”
But to make it effective, the church ‘it.
self must set the exemple.
Dr. Moton told his fellow Baptist:
that there js as miteli rivalry, antagonism
and dissension within the church a!
there 4s on the outside. The records
show’ more than seventy-five kinds of
Methodists, the same number of Baptist
varieties, thirty kinds of Presbyterians
and more than twenty-five sorts of Luth-
erans. Even among Catholics a dozen
varieties are to be found. This was de-
declared to be no example to set before
the world by an organization that pro:
fesses to teach unity and brotherhood
which is equally true for black people
as well as for white.
Dr. Moton’s plain speaking and his
broad and liberal conceptios. of the .mis-
sion of the church and his views regard:
ing other religious faiths were the more
remarkable as coming from one of the
Baptist faith to an audience of Baptists
than whom no egmmunion is noted for
greater restrictiveness. In expressing a
belief that Heaven will not be closed to
other faiths, he expressed his personal
appreciation of individual Hindus, Con-
fucianists and Buddhists whom he had
met abroad. He also paid an earnest
tribute to “that great friend and bene:
factor of ‘all mankind, Mr. Julius Rosen-
wald of Chicago,” who in religion “calls
himself and isccalled 2 Jew.” *
In this addrésa Dr. Moton exhibited a
broadness of faith and tolerance of judg-
‘ment that should commend his“utterane-
es to churchmen: of all denomination,
WHY BUSINESS 18 PeEN HAL,
The small amount of retail business
owned and operated by Negroes in such
a-large and growing community as Har-
Jem has Jong been a source of surprise
and disappointment to visitors from oth-
¢f parts of the country. Outside of the
realtors and undertakers, the barber
shops, beauty parlors and restaurants,

run by members of the race, This is
not wholly due to lack of initiative, for
several individual efforts have been made
in retail trade, such as a shoe store, a
dry goods store ‘and lines of househoft

short-lived, due to lack of support by the
public, or lack of experience on the part

WHITE EPISCOPAL CHURCH PRESENTS FINE AUSTIN PIPE ORGAN TO COLORED BAPTIST CHURCH FROM WOMAN'S LEGACY
A casual glance at a program which came into my hands by chance led to my being present at Trinity Baptist Church, 810 East 82nd street, Williamsbridge, the Rev. B. T. Harvey, pastor, on Wednesday evening, September 7. The occasion was the dedication of a new 2-manual Austin organ, recently installed in this church, according to the program, "through the uniting efforts of Mr. Benjamin Brown Jr."
Primary interest was aroused by the announcement that it was an "Austin" organ, an aristocrat among American-built instruments, one gloom heard in churches which house small congregations of limited financial resources. The "uniting Mr. Brown" was mentally pictured as a possible philanthropist, with a leaning toward the dignifying of church music and a penchant for aiding those who would be most appreciative of such a vehicle of expression. And, too, Mrs. Brown was scheduled to do the unveiling.
And when the program opened, this interest was intensified when it was discovered that Mr. Brown, while not materializing as the actual philanthropist, had, through personal connections, enlisted the cooperation of an agency which, possibly, could have been secured in another way.
Briefly told, Mr. Brown, as a boy, entered the service of a wealthy Park avenue family which consisted of three sisters—the two Misses Furniss and Mrs. Marguerite Zimmerman. And he had remained with this family for years, until the three ladies had finally folded their robes of activity on this earth and been translated to etherial regions, Mrs. Zimmerman being the last to go. And by her will, a large sum of money was devised to the St. Michaels P. E. Church, 225 West 99th street, of which the Rev. Dr. Thomas McCandless is the present rector. St. Michaels is a wealthy parish, and no need itself for the money coming from the Zimmerman estate. But the rector and his church officials had an unselfish vision of what they thought would have pleased Mrs. Zimmerman most, and that centered in doing for those who needed it what would be most beneficial, and what they would be unable to do for themselves.
The first tangible demonstration of this determination came with the establishment by St. Michaels of the St. Jude Chapel at 19 West 99th street for service to the colored people of that section, and which, under the vicarship of the Rev. Floarda Howard, has become one of the most vital influences for good in this great city.
And when the little Williamsbridge congregation, the Trinity Baptist Church, had completed its present modest structure, costing something over $30,000, burdened with a mortgage of about $19,000, there arose a need for music equipment which the congregation was poorly prepared to meet.
Now Benjamin F. Brown jr., is chairman of Trinity's Board of trustees and in this emergency, there came an inspiration to Mr. Brown, born of his memory of Mrs. Zimmerman. He went to one of the officials of St. Michael's Church, Mr. Peters, chairman, I think, of the board of vestrymen, and to him Mr. Brown recited the need of the little Baptist group with which he is connected.
"The result of this application eventuated on this September night by the coming to Williamsbridge of St. Michael's rector, Dr. McCandess, who, in heartfelt sincerity, told of St. Michael's stewardship instrutor as the bequest from Mrs. Zimmerman is concerned of the service being rendered the parish and community in general by St. Jude; and of the gratification afforded by this opportunity to extend the service made possible by a splendid Christian woman's legacy.
And then he handed over to Mr. Brown, on behalf of St. Michael's Church officiary, a check for $1,800, one-half of the cost of the beautiful little pipe organ which was on that night dedicated to the service of God and the enhancement of the musical utterances of Trinity's congregation, and which had previously been unveiled by Mrs. Lelia E. Brown, Benjamin's wife and energetic coworker in a common cause.
The organ is a memorial to the late Mrs. Marguerite E. Zimmerman, by virtue of this splendid contribution from St. Michael's, and a commemoratory placque is to be placed at the church entrance that all who pass may learn of the good done in her name.
An interesting program was arranged for the dedication. The Rev. Dr. Harvey, pastor, welcomed the audience and introduced John L. Anderson, secretary of the board of trustees, as master of ceremonies. Mrs. Brown, with a brief statement, unveiled the organ as the choir and congregation sang "Praise God from Whom all blessings flow," and Pastor Harvey offered the dedicatory prayer.
The master of ceremonies introduced Mr. Brown, who in turn presented Dr. Candless. The St. ichaels' rector, after his felicitous speech, presented, on behalf of his officer, the check to Chairman Brown for Trinity's trustees. Mr. Brown then gave an interesting account of his experiences in the Zimmerman home and of the favor with which his appeal to St. Michaels was received. He passed the check to the pastor, who passed it on to the church treasurer, Madison S. Jones.
A musical program followed, in which the church organist, Mrs. Ollie M. Royal, played several groups; Mme. Lillian Royal and Miss Myrtle Paschal of Jamaica sang solos; a quartet from the chair headed by Ernest Royal, choirmaster, sang and acted a humorous skit, and a splendid dramatic recitation was given by Mme. Irene Smith Allen. Edward de Holland was at the piano for Miss Paschal.
A charming incident occurred when the master of ceremonies, on behalf of the choir body, presented a beautiful bouquet to Mrs. Brown. And as the result of a beauty show held recently, the choir, through a representative, presented $100 to Mr. Brown to be applied to the organ fund.

Brown, jr., chairman Dr. B. T. Harvey.
Another interesting event in connection with the dedication of Trinity's new organ was the playing on Friday night, September 9, of a brief program by Dr. Melville Charlton of Brooklyn, the race's master organist, who for many years has presided at the organ in the chapel of the great Presbyterian university, Union Theological Seminary, Columbia University Heights, and for almost as many years as organist for the Hebrew Synagogue on the Bronx.
Dr. Charlton's programmed numbers were "Mystic Hour," from a Boellmann suite; "Chromatic Fantasy," Thiel; a Spiritual, "On Bended Knee," H. T. Burleigh; and the "Tocata" from Boellmann's Gothic Suite. Added numbers were "The Swedish Wedding March," Soedermann, and "Offertoire," Lefebvre-Wely.
The organ, wonderfully sweet in tone, is of small capacity in its registration, with a duplication of stops in great and swell organs, limiting tone color possibilities to a minimum. But Dr. Charlton's skill and musical intelligence enabled him to develop an almost uncanny range of musical effects. A large audience enjoyed his artistic playing.
Thomas Davis, baritone, programmed as a soloist at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, and Peter Cavillo, a teacher of the violin in Williamsbridge, rendered two groups each, with encores, with Miss Adelaide Jones at the piano; Mrs. Beatrice Johnson, pianist, played, a Rachmaninoff Prelidio, responding to the generous applause with an added number; Mme. Irene Allen read, in fine dramatic style, "Lasca," substituting at the last moment for her son, Arthur, who was ill; and the hour, under direction of Ernest Royal, leader, with Mrs. Lillian Royal, organist, rendered two choruses.
Willis Jones, youngest deacon of Trinity, was master of ceremonies and brief talks were given by Benjamin P. Brown, jr., chairman board of trustees, and the pastor, Dr. B. T. Harvey.

Quintet of Singers At Mrs. Little's Funeral
One of the most impressive moments during the funeral services held in St. George's Chapel, East 16th street and Stuyvesant Square, over the body of the late Mr. Arthur Little on Thursday, September 8. was when a quintet of colored singers rendered a Negro Spiritual. The group was headed by Lieut. Noble Sissle, who served with the Famous Old New York 15th in Paris, when the present Col. Little was a major attached to that regiment. A telegraphic request had asked especially that Lieut. Sissle, the singer, were Morris Sasser, August Simons, G. Willard McLean and Hinton Jones. The Spirituals sung by the quintet, led by Lieut. Sissle, were "Swing low, sweet charlot," "Deep River" and "My Lord, what a morning." The funeral services were conducted by the Rev. Gibeur Ritter, assistant gibber of George's, and the first three news were reserved for the delegation of colored citizens from Harlem.
The Rev. Richard Manuel Bolden was also a member of the deli

Atlanta, Ga.-The Morehouse College Orchestra, Kemper Harrold, director, organized sixteen years ago, was probably the first college orchestra group to attempt the consistent performance of massed body composed entirely of students. This orchestra numbers now from thirty-five to forty pieces, some of the members being seasoned players of several years experienced by Jackson, violinist and secular soloist, and John Hervey Wheeler, violinist, who during the school term appeared in violin recital, and whose brilliant playing this summer at the National Association of violinists made a favorable impression.
Last term brought to the organization unusual progress in knowledge, and skill and the reward of public acclaim. Prospects for the future of the orchestra are excellent for students, after several years of study, have applied for membership, and demands for the services of the orchestra and glee club are already coming in from the North and West, from Fortoria, where they made a most successful tour last winter, and from our own state.
The standard enrollment in the orchestra includes 14 violins, 2 violas, 2 cellos, 2 base violas, 2 flutes basso, bassoon, 2 caliners, 2 saxophones, 2 trumpets, 2 trombones, tuba, tympani, drums and piano.
The Glee Club numbers around forty men and was as popular as the orchestra last year. The requirements for entrance, cost and other requirements and the character of the club's work is elevated each year.

A glance at this afternoon frock shows just how becoming this silhouette really is—especially to the medium or larger figure. You see, here the flare in the skirt is balanced by the graceful jabot down the blouse, which repeats itself smartly on the sleeve. White or cream lace would be best for this, although your georgette would do better. For a more black, beige or brown satin, the effect would be stunning, and serviceable, too. Double rhinestone pins at neck and waistline add a deedled French accent.
May be obtained in sizes 16 to 40 of 4-inch material and 1-2 yard of 40 inch material and 1-2 yard of o flare or georgette for trimming.

HOMESTEAD GRAYS TO RETURN TO N. Y. ON OCTOBER 2 "Smoky" Joe Williams To Lead Smoky City Clan In Manhattan Visit
New York baseball fans who were disappointed at not seeing Joe Williams pitch when rain broke up the series between the Lincoln Giants and Homestead Grays, will have an opportunity to see the Grays in action again this season and "Smoky" Joe will pitch the first game.
James J. Keenan, owner of the Lincoln's; has completed arrangements with Cum Posey for a return series with the Grays for New York on Sunday October 2. The Grays made a fine impression in their first appearance in New York and outclassed the local team. However, Manager Lloyd felt that his team was working under a big handicap through the illness of his first baseman, Burdell Young, and he expects to make a much better showing this time.
The celebration in honor of. William twenty years in baseball, which was interrupted by rain, will be concluded Sunday, October 2.

BEAT BRONX GTS.
Philly Hebrews and Farmers Are Also Week-end Victims
The hard hitting of George Scales, Alfonso Montalvo and Charlie Mason gave the Lincoln Giants three more victories over the past weekend. Saturday, with Montalvo pitching, the Lincoln shoutout the Farmers by a score of 3-0. And Sunday they defeated the Philadelphia Hebrews, 15-13 and the Bronx Giants; 6-2.
The pitching of Montalvo on Saturday and Rector against the Bronx Giants were big factors in these games. Montalvo allowed but two hits while Rector let the rival Giants down with six scattered singles. The first game of the double-headed Sunday was a free hitting affair, with Chambers on the mound for the local team. Only the heavy batting of his teammates saved the Lincolnins from defeat. Mason and Rojo got home runs in this game, and George Scales made two against the Bronx Giants. The Philadelphia Professionals will be the attraction against the Lincoln Giants next Sunday.

Hilldale Takes Two Games From Baltimore
Philadelphia, Pa.—The, pitting of Porter Charleston and Phil Cockrell gave the Darby Daisies a double victory over the Baltimore Black Sox on September 8 and 10. In the first game the Daisies won by a score of 4-1, and the second, 4-3. Charleston's curves were too much for the Marylanders in the opening contest and except for an error in judgment on part of Clint Thomas, he would have scored a shutout. With two out in the ninth inning Babe Wilson hoisted a fly to left field between Stevens and Bill Johnson. Thomas charged across from centerfield and yelled that he would make the putout. Too late, he realized that the ball was out of his reach and Wilson, taking advantage of the situation, kept going to second. Pete Washington then came through with a single to left field that scored the only Sox run.
All the Hildale runs were made in' the fourth inning, off Charleson's single and Thomas' double, with the bases loaded, McClure was on the mound for the Sox. On Saturday, the Daisies jumped on Bill Force in the first inning and made four runs, including a home run by Geoff Curtiss. Baltimore began cutting down the lead in' the second inning, but the steady pitching of Cockrell and the sensational stop of Lake Stew-

Athletic Director Williams of Hampton Becomes A Benedict
Roanoke, Va.—Miss Alma Inex Mayers, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. P. O. Mayers of this city, became the bride of Charles Holston Williams at sunrise on September 3. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. L. L. Downing, pastor of the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church. It was one of the prettiest weddings of the season.
The bride is a popular member of the younger set here and the groom is Director of Athletics at Hampton Institute, a position he has held for the past 18 years.
Immediately, after the ceremony, the couple left on a brief honeymoon in the North and will be at home at Hampton Institute after September 20.
Bacharach Giants Near
By LLOYD P. THOMPSON
By taking the first game of a crucial series from the runners-up Hilldale team, the Bacharach Giants drew nearer, its goal of bagging both halves of the Eastern League race. The Bee's, with Luther Farrell, a Hildale cast-off on the hill, sent the hopes of the Daisies down by winning the first of a three game series, 4 to 1. That Farrell was the big noise of the contest can be gleaned from the fact that he held the Daisies to a single tally, a home run over the right field fence by Bill Johnson. Aside from this pitching fear, Luther twice propelled the ball out of the lot to make victory assured for the Bees.
Although the Giants are now in position where 'another' game will eliminate the Hilldale outfit, the Hilldale outfit, the Daisies are fighting to win the remaining two games and the series. Both teams are handicapped by having one of their star pitchers out of condition. Rats Henderson of the Bachrach staff has been nursing a sore arm, and Nip Winters, with a charley horse, has been of but little help to the Daisies in their effort to beat out the Atlantic City team.
With the 15th of September as the closing date for the league, the Bee's may yet lose out and be forced into a series to decide, the league champions. If they put the Daisies out of the running, both the Cuban Stars and the Harrisburg Giants have an outside chance to win the bunting on their remaining games. The Cubans will have to win all of their five games, two with Baltimore and three with the Harrisburg Giants For Col. Strothers team to win the flag the Harrisburg team will have to swap the series with the Cuban Stars and then be allotted two games from the Baltimore team that are contended for as forfeits. But should the Bacharach's win all three games from Hildale, the Bee's will have the pennant in the bag regardless of how the other clubs wind up the season.
Down Atlantic City way, Tom Jackson and other owners of the Bee's are already figuring on the trip West, where they expect to retrieve the honors lost to the Negro National League last season.
"Butterbeans and Susie" Triumph at Lafayette
Jimmie Cooper's 1928 Revue opened at the Lafayette Theatre last Monday for a week's run and was warmly received by a crowded house, "Butterbeans and Susie" are the stars of the show, and the reception they received was exceeded only by the wild enthusiasm which greeted every appearance of Bill Robinson last week
The entire stage of the Lafayette Theatre had to be stripped to receive the two train loads of scenery and lighting effects which this new show brought. The settings were nothing short of gorgeous. Every number was presented in a different scene and the result was a succession of "hit" numbers against the most beautiful scenic background which has been seen in a local theatre in many months. The orchestra gave the show a flying start with a unique and rousing overture in which the drummer, the saxophone and the banjo worked "specialties." Then Sonny and Eddie, two of the fastest dancers on the stage, joined the chorus and started the show on its fast, enjoyable, hilarious way.
"Butterbeans and Susie" have a new act which is a real hit. They were called upon to respond to encore after encore. During a cabaret scene in the show, Susie rendered some of the old songs which made her famous. The audience just went wild over them. Butterbeans helped along by a display of the funniest antics indulged in by a comedian in the memory of the reviewer. Le Roy Broomfield and Aurora Greely came in for a liberal share of the audience's applause. Broomfield has a splendid voice and is a most artistic dancer. Miss Greely also demonstrated that her reputation as an amcrobatic dancer is well deserved. Earl Tucker did some splendid tap dancing and Earl Edwards' contribution to the comedy helped things along wonderfully.

"SNOWBALL," MADE TO QUIT IN N. Y., IS BIG HIT IN PARIS Little Black Boy Dances And Plays Banjo For European Royalty
"Snowball"—that is what he is called, but his real name is Master Edwin Arden Harris, and he comes from St. Louis, Mo.—was not permitted to "strut his stuff" on the stage in New York City when he was under contract with the Paul Whitemam Orchestra, the Children's Aid Society calling in the law as an estopla on the plea that he was too young.
But the Parisians are not so scrupulous, and now "Snowball" is one of the big hits in the Dolly Sisters Revue, playing in, Paris, and his banjo playing and dancing en el cine sin lo que el finne the final act in the French capital, and the Ambassadeurs Restraunt, the recreational dining hall of visiting, kings, queens, princes plenipotentiaries and other notables visiting the gay city.
Among the royal onlookers who have been entertained by the little black American boy is the popular Prince of Wales, and "Snowball" Parisian success has led to attractive offers from both Berlin and London. It is probable that he will appear in both cities, if it can be conveniently arranged. His father, Walter H. Harris sr. is with him as manager and cicerone. A brother, Walter H. Jr. is connected with Poro College, Mrs. Annie M. Turnbo-Malone's establishment, in St. Louis.

"For The Love of Mike"
At Roosevelt Theatre
If you want to see a notable assemblage of stars in a vehicle worthy of their talents, go to the Roosevelt Theatre. "For the Love of Mike," the First National production which opened there Thursday, comes up to that high standard. Ben Lyon has the leading role with George Sidney, Ford Sterling Claudette Colbert, High Cameron, Richard Skeets Gallagher, Rudolph Cameron and Mabel Swor. Not only "for the love of mike," but for your own sake, this is one picture you positively must see!
Everybody seems to be having a wonderful time at the new Alhambra Theatre this week where "Pullman Dandies" is drawing crowds. Besides the good-natured fun about the dapper railroad folks there was a unique "school days" playlet in which all the girls appeared in dainty kiddie togs. There was also a laughable sketch, "Fun in a Motion Picture Studio." There is a steady increase of patronage. The Alhambra as more and more of the Harlem folks find that the new management has made good on its promise of an equal rights theatre. And so far as the moral tone of the musical comedy plays is concerned this writer has seen ministers in the audience and, heard them praise the programs.
Beginning Monday, the attraction for a week will be "Dixie Magnolia" and the directors promise a treat with gorgeous new costumes and surprise effects. There have been added to the troupe the well known comedians, Emmett Anthony, Walter Crumbley and Onion Jeffries, the latter being the creator of the famous grocery clerk role in "Shuffle Along." The Pathe News of the world is seen at The Alhambra on the first day of issue, just as at the Paramount and Roxy Theatres. The favorite "Our Gang" comedies are also frequently presented and feature pictures abound in wholesome and vigorous action.

The morning service was well attended. Eld. T. R. White preached from Luke 3:16:
John answered, saying unto them, I indeed baptize you with water, but I baptize you with cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: He shall baptize you' with the Holy Ghost and with fire: whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly purge' His floor, and will gathen' into his Garner; but the chaff He will burn with fire unquenchable.
Eld. White dwell on the cleansing power of the fan of God's Spirit in the lives of His people. He was followed by Eld. S. E. Whites, from Washington, D. C., who gave us the Psalms 17:15. In confirmation of the message of Eld. White, touching the operation of the fan-of God in one's life:
At the evening service, the attalance was an overflow. All availance space for extra chairs and standing space is then the hallway downstairs and stoop.
Elder Lawson, the pastor, preached from 'Ephesians, 3:9. And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, willis the mystery, world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ, "Including also the 10th and 11th verses, Pastor Lawson proved in his discourse by the scripture, that he hid this mystery in Himself; and hid him so come and satan to try his mind to prove to the world-His incomprehensibility, Omnipresence, Al-mighty and Al-wise power; and yet He is merciful, long suffering, and love. And this He well proved by the temptation of man, by the cross of man, known to man through the Church by the preaching of the gospel by the Holy Ghost.
Grace Congregational Ch.
The activities of *Grace Church* have commenced for the session. The returned members are back in church and the program previously outlined is being carried out. The audience last Sunday was a promise for increased attendance in the future. The pastor returned from his vacation with vigor and good cheer and reaffirmed the benefit of his rest.

pretation of the symbolism of fereemiah concerning Israel.
The choir was working on half its strength but showed superior training. There was a slight change in the order of service resulting in the saving of time and a shortening of the hour of worship so far as the hour of worship was concerned; but other matters took up the saved time and the gain was nil. The evening service was directed by the pastor. The song service was a feature. Next Sunday evening the Ladies Auxiliary of the Cosy Corner Club will worship at the evening hour. The last week was bereft of depth of the hour, Mrs. Annie F. Holt and Mrs. Robert Barnwell. The pastor conducted the funerals.
George Caldwell and Miss Justine Alexander have presented a preliminary program of the benefit to be given for the work of Grace. Church. It includes, among others to be named later, such celebrities as Jeck Osterman, Fred Kinsley, organist, C. Luckieth, Roberts, Cliff and Radcliffe, the combined orchestras of the palace and Hippodrome theatres, Clef Club Society Entertainers, the J. Bernie Barbour, Co., et al. The theatrical people are kindly disposed toward Grace Church and her pastor, Rev. A. C. Garner, because of the liberal policy of the church and the sympathy and intellectual breadth of Rev. Dr. Garner, who is chaplain of the Club and national chaplain of the Deacons, a theatrical masonic group of which J. A. Jackson ("Bill board") is the secretary. Many stage people have served Grace Church, and a warm mutual friendship grew up between the church and the show people. The whole musical and theatrical public have expressed a willingness to show appreciation for the work of Grace Church.
Home Talent Night was the schedule for Wednesday night.
First Emmanuel Church
At the 11 o'clock service Sunday many friends and members of the church were gathered early to hear the sermon by the Pastor on the 11th anniversary of the Baptism, were received from the text: "And, Moses said unto, Hobab, the Son of Roguel, the Midianite, Moses' father-in-law, we are journeying unto the place of which the Lord said: I will give it you, Moses, the good for the Lord hath spoken good concerning Israel. And he said unto him, I will not go; but I will depart to mine own land and to my kindred. And he said, Leave us not, I pray, thee, forsake us to encamp in the wilderness, and thou mayest be in us instead of eyes. And it shall be if thou go with us, yea, it shall be, that what goodness the Lord shall do unto us, the same will we do unto thee," for 10:098-32 theme. "Peal for Cooperation and Mutual Benefit."
Pastor Bolden would have the readers to note the topics and some gems of thoughts taken from his 14th anniversary sermon. The story of the call of Moses to the work-of-delivering the child of Israel, bloodless and fierce, from the priestess Pharaoh, and hard task masters of Egypt, was interesting and illuminating. He showed that Israel's bondage and Israel's leader, Moses, and Israel's long years journeying through an unknown wilderness, but under the guidance and protection of Jehovah God, visualized the day between Israel and the pursuing enemy; and as a cloud or pillar of fire by night, Moses divining r.o in his hand, the water flowing from the rock becoming a stream for their comfort and cleaning, their murmurings, their personal bickering and other conditions that arose among them in the face of a symbol of our Jesus Christ the Emineman's spiritual Israel
Pastor Bolden said: Why should Moses, who was called and commissioned by the "I am God", and who had demonstrated this "I am God's" presence and power in the life of the Egyptians, the Israelites and his own life, after a few month's journeying in the wilderness request and urge human companion and cooperation from Mishna. Mishna said sure had been brought to bear by the people upon Moses? What fears had entered his mind? Was he despondent? Had he lost faith Was he afraid of the fierce tribes, the wild beasts, the deserts, the

marthy lever bogle" Or did he not know the map of the country, and this course that would take him out? Perhaps all of this was running through his mind. And perhaps he knew that Hobab knew the wilderness and could show him a safer and quicker way out. Hence he makes the request that is found in the verses used as text. Is not this a human trait? And there is the basis of all business industrial business religious systems? Is it not this thought, "Come and go with us and we will do the good, seen in secret societies and church organizations?" And, when it is found that people will not accept this kind of invitation is not the kind to adhere, "come with us you will be able to do it," Hobab gardesed to divine leadership and God's protecting-care, thoughtful and fearful human leaders seek cooperation for mutual benefit.
The exception to this rule was our Lord·the Emmanuel, Who came into this wilderness of humanity and faced the awfulness of the human experience through the death river and entered into the Promised Land. He sought no human guides. He did not need their eyes. His Father was the All Seeing Eye and They were One. He said: "I am the way, the life, and the life, no man cometh unto me." He meant: "me." Therefore let us follow Him. We will carry us through and receive us into glory unto himself.
At 2 p.m., the Sunday school was opened by the assistant superintendent, Miss Maggie Johnson. A review of the lesson was given by the pastor. At 4:30 the Literary Society convened, Rev. W. Rogers of the Christian Wesleyan Church, had

charge of the program. Splendid solos, choir selections, talks and recitations were rendered. The collection received at this service
At the evening service, after the regular opening of the service, the quarter reports were read by the different auxiliaries. Michigan C. Brown, clerk of the 19th District, and Michigan C. Brown, many assembled. And a forceful civic address was delivered by Fred R. Moore, of The New York Age, Republican candidate for Alderman of the 19th Aldermanchest district. Mr. Moore recited the condition of the meeting, called special attention to the fact that greater interest should be taken in delinquent children and young people. He said he thought that the churches—and the people of means ought to organize a community center on the Board of Education, the Big Brothers and Big Sisters movements, and other agencies, for the purpose of providing places, such as neighborhood houses and recreational centers, for developing the girls and the young girls. Exceptionally good music was rendered by the choir at the morning and evening services. Dinner was served throughout the day.

"And, pray, what is a Pullman? Why," said he, "A Pullman or subway seat hog. He is one of seat, but monopolizes two. For are six seats in that haven't been ester. Oh, yes, they are sold, but playing cards; and they will be the York.

And that some of them will not come to "Now, what I am trying to show the Pullman seat hog is more of a station than he is in street car or a local seat hog may monopolize revenue of the car in which he is to stand who might sit."
"But don't you think," venture the railroads and the Pullman Com phase of their business and that system, if they thought them need "Yes, confessed our porter down for the city limits of New are still vacant and it doesn't, ch seat hog is the most expensive of
Picked Up Here And There
The seat hog is no longer an exclusive product of the subway and elevated lines of New York City. He has invaded the Pullman car, according to the observations of Pullman Porter John Doe. It was during the heavy Labor Day travel last week that Porter Doe expressed the opinion that there were other seat hogs besides those that ride in the common modes of transportation, and that these "hogs" were a libilibity to their carriers.
"You wouldn't think it," said the porter, after the train had left Albany, where scores of applicants for seats in the four parlor cars were turned away, but these Pullman seat hogs caused the Pullman Company and the railroads to lose lots of money. I counted more than twenty persons at Albany who wanted Pullman accommodation. They didn't particularly care where the accommodation was so long as it was in a Pullman, but due to the Pullman seat hogs, they had to go back in the day coaches. Many of them would have been satisfied with space in the club car.
"And, pray, what is a Pullman seat hog, "Porter Doe was asked? "Why," said he, "A Pullman seat hog is the same as a street car or subway seat hog. He is one of those persons who pays fare for one seat, but monopolizes two. For example, just look at my car. There are six seats in it that haven't been occupied since the train left Rochester. Oh, yes, they are sold, but the holders are up in the club car playing cards; and they will be there until the train reaches New York."
"But isn't the club car of a train supposed to be for the convenience of Pullman passengers, who have accommodations elsewhere on the train?" the observing one was asked.
"Quite true," he replied, "and that is why I call them seat hogs, and why I say they cause the company and the railroad to lose money."
"When travel is heavy, as it is today, and people are bogging for Pullman space, this privilege of holding two seats for one fare should not be allowed. Those six chairs in my car might just as well have been occupied by six women or, for that matter, six men who didn't care to play cards all the way down. This would have made space available to some of those Albany passengers. But the parties out of my car are not the only ones who are hogging two seats apiece. Every chair car on the train has from three to four seats that haven't been occupied since the train left Buffalo. The conductor dare not assign an applicant to any one of these, even for a short distance, yet the holders are not likely to return to them until the train is pulling into the Grand Central Terminal. And even then it is more than probable that some of them will not come back at all."
"Now, what I am trying to show," continued the observer, "is that the Pullman seat hog is more of a financial loss in railroad transportation than he is in street car or subway transportation. For whereas the local seat hog may monopolize two seats, he doesn't curtail the revenue of the car in which he is riding. He merely causes some one to stand who might sit."
"But don't you think," ventured the listener, "that the officials of the railroads and the Pullman Company are well conversant with this phase of their business and that they would make corrections in the system, if they, thought them necessary?"
"Yes," confessed our porter friend, as the train began slowing, down for the city limits of New York, "but you see those six seats are still yawful and it doesn't; change my opinion that the Pullman seat hog is the most expensive of the species."

AN AMERICAN W
By LAYI
AN AMERICAN WOMAN IN HAITI
By LAYLE LANE
On a day in July, when New York papers were reporting temperatures ranging from 95 to 98 degrees, I set sail for Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Under such conditions I had many siblings, about starting for the tropics; my milivings, surprisingly displeased by many cool breezes. I visited various nationality. There were only four others in the second class, with myself, a Jamaican, with his little girl of five, and a Haitian, with a half grown daughter. The Haitian girl was sprightly and voluble. The entirely Negro, she was attractive with her smooth, skinny, bright eyes and neat features. In gaiting at her wandered so why so many fail to find her in black people. The liveliest sort of father and daughter. Existed between the meal time passed with volumes of patois from one to the other.
Both men were intelligent and I liked well enough to listen to their exchange of experiences and repete. They were, well, travelled, knowing the islands thoroughly, as well as several places in the Estates. The Haitian liked the United States, remarking, "It's only country good to poor man When you hear man say he no like the United States, he lay man. No country so good to poor man. The British said he liked America, but had to get away every once in a while for the truth. His robust appetite and physique made illusions seem an impossibility so I asked anaward, "Don't you have good health in America?"
Sating the Wanderlust.

As good a reason as any for satisfying die wanderlust.

SPENT LABOR DAY IN WASHINGTON
Mr. Ernest Durham; Apollo of the Pullman-porters who run between New York and Boston made a trip to Washington, D.C. during the Labor Day rush, which he termed a dual visit; that is, a visit combining pleasures and business.
"My parents were born in the South," though I knew South meant a different thing to each of us. Our finding that I was going to Personally thank her informed me that there was plenty of black people there. "You will see" with nod.
"Don't you have black people in Curacao?"
"Oh, yes, but in Curacao black people are the low class people; in Haiti, black people are the high class people."
I had a slightly different idea, but thought there ought to be some place where the black man has his innings.
Harbor of Port-au-Prince.
After five days of calm but slow sailing we entered the beautiful harbor of Port-au-Prince. The island of Gonave near the entrance makes the harbor almost entirely landlocked. With the bright blue water, the mountains forming a rugged background "to the crescent of the bay, with the white sails of the fishing boats in the distance, one has a scene of vivid beauty. An unexpected line, of cars parked near the wharf gave a modern aspect to this city. Contrasts, expected to be seen at streets, attracts wide portions in the business section which perhaps provide more shade than trees. The sidewalks have varying levels in the level block, so that most everybody walks in the road. High-arched doors with heavy iron hooks and shattered windows are the most striking differences rated in the houses. The homes of the well-to-do are surrounded by high stone walls. These seem to me myotical of the walls which surround their life and development, making the absence of community spirit quite obvious. I was joyously excited with this strange new place. Peasant women, "marchands," as they are termed in Cayenne, donkey dances through the streets to the streets. Those not prosperous enough to afford a doley carry their wares in wide trays upon their heads. Nothing seems too big or too cumbersome for, this made of transportation. People literally take up their beds and walk. The market, covering two city blocks, is alive and colorful. Vegetables, fruits, coffee, red beans, chickens, fish, crises, crab, baited baites, burdens.

burdens, of illiter. There, is no fixed price, consequently there is much bargaining to arrive at. 'I denier prix.' I purchased some cruises and bandanes. How, strangely, appropriated my gay bandanes are weaped loosely in a, page 'From "Foreign Affairs."
Poverty and Beggars.
The poverty of the peasant is most distressing. Many beggars are encountered in the streets and even around the churches, after services. Costumes of rags provide a common sight, though, I'm told there are fewer people in rags than ten years ago. I saw a few in clothing made of gunny sacks. There homes furnish, only the crudest sort of shelter. What is more alarming is that there is often, a family, ranging from five to ten living in these one or two-shack shocks. There is a great deal of unemployment, and for those who are poor, they are often low—from twenty to thirty cents. A familiar story is one of complaint about the labor of the peasant. If there were definite efforts to make a first class worker, of him, one might have sympathy with this tale of woe. But why expect a man to clean well, a yard, a horse or a car who has not first been taught to take pride in his own appearance or who has not the wherewithall to satisfy that pride. One effort is being attempted—a group of women organized by Mile, Jean Joseph is starting an industrial-school for peasant children. Of course, I will tell the reader some other time. I am trained to be trained to a skillful worker, as well as an active participant in civic life. Haiti will continue to remain poor and materially backward.
I had several delightful visits among a few of the members of the elite. This group constitute a tiny fraction of the population. They are well educated, have traveled widely and pay much more attention to the amenities of life than we in the States. Politics is an all-absorbing topic of conversation among them, as the race question is with us. "What do the Americans intend to do here?" Occupation have now become bitter opponents. "They expected America to help in the development of their country as in the Philippines and Cuba. It is true they have had twelve years without revolution. Sanitation has greatly improved Port-au-Prince. Medical and hospital facilities have, really been of service. These are hardly adequate compensation, however, for the insolent prejudice of the American, the destruction of democracy, the killing of American control upon Haitian soil, the heaviness of spirit induced by foreign domination. No wonder that it bittersweet toward America and Americans. A business man on his fifty-first trip to the country said, "There is no one in Haiti so hated as an American." Some are philosophical about the Occupation Other peoples in history have been oppressed by a foreign invader. Thus so, Haiti is now wearing her "crown of thorns."
Elite Not Producers.
The elite is not a productive class. Most of its wealth, instead of revolving in a circuit in Haiti, goes out to foreign producers. So many articles are improved that could be more easily and cheaply produced in the country. Though many own vast farms, they do very little farming, being content to let peasant work the land in his primitive fashion. I saw not a hoe, rake or any tool such as is needed for any real farming. There are a few such tools but they are not used by the peasant. As a result the crops are much inferior in size and grade to similar produce in the States. But how to do a Sorbonne graduate of agriculture to enjoy oranges, experimenting with growing wheat in a tropical country, or producing fine butter!
During my stay there were three events which focussed attention upon the political situation. A few days before I arrived a "drunken marine" had shot three people, one of whom died. This has, by no means, been the first time that the marines, drunk or sober, have browbeaten the natives; nor is it likely to be the last. Drinking by, the Americans, by the way is a subject of much comment among the Haitians. Not at all because the latter do not drink, for they do; but drunkenness is not common. We must make sure, because the American attitude seems to be, we must make the most of being in a "wet" country for we may never to the marines, there is no possible excuse for their remaining in Haiti except to keep in power a president who is thoroughly unwanted.
A Visit To The Prison.
One Sunday afternoon I visited the prison to talk with some of the editors who had been in jail for more than a month. Their offence had been the sending of a callgram to Mgr. Caranna (who had previously been sent to the administration) stating that Preh. Bonjo was a menace to all Latin America. They were immediately put in jail and all efforts for their release were unavailing. The preliminary examination which the law requires taken within twenty-four hours was

this, interrupted them. The second had no means of knowing, when they would be brought to trial.
The report, "Occupied Haiti," prepared by an investigating committee under amphiles of the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom, devotes a chapter to "The People." The report clearly the difficulties encountered by those who express criticism of the present regime.
If the case were a sample of Haitian justice, Russell *Would* have sample grounds; for his criticism of the Haitian courts and for his desire to have these courts under the control of the Occupation, an object for which he is actively working. It is, however, a typical example of Haitian justice, but typical, of the dictatorial powers assumed by the president backed up by the American military force. If the Negro press in the United States sent any expression by sympathy to the editors, or any protest to Pres. Boron against their imprisonment nothing was known of it in Hatti up to August 16. Surely we are at that concerned about the fact that we find some means of letting our opinions be promptly and effectively known.
Nine Editors Released.
"An oncation for releasing the prisoners was found during the visit of Pres.' Vasquez of Santo Domingo. This was the first time in the history of Hatti that it had been visited by a foreign executive. The Hattians have a, high regard, for Pres.' Vasquez because he was one' of a small group, who formulated a plan of evacuation for the American forces from Santo Domingo. Much of the cordially and, attention, which ordinarily would have been shown to a foreign executive was lacking because as the Hattians argued the president comes as a guest of Pres. Borno and is the leader by our entire army, the typical afternoon of the afternoon of Pres.' Vasquez's arrival and it was certainly heavy enough to dampen the ardor of any welcome. Because Mme. Vasquez requested the release of the "political" prisoners, the nine editors' as a "special favor to a gracious lady," received their liberty.
Pres. and Mme. Vasquez were accompanied by several members of the Dominican Cabinet, with their families, several members of the legislative and of the judiciary bodies There was much speculation as to the reason of the visit and the opinion that the war to settle the boundary dispute between republics. Whatever the motive, the visit showed the Dominicans in all their splendor. The entourage came in fine new cars, with trim looking chauffeurs. In addition, the president was escorted by about 150 of his picked soldiers. No reason was given for this large bodyguard; the reason assigned by the general public was that President Vera was want any protection from the American marines. The military review on Champ de Mars showed the escort to be well-drilled and disciplined. Most spectators thought they were superior, to the Haitian gendarmerie. As one editor explained it—The Dominicans were offered by their own people, whereas the Haitians were not. What each do in war is a different story, but I hope there will never be occasion to find out.

taking.
The president's days are filled with visits to public institutions, the usual round of lunches, dinners and receptions. High mass at the Cathedral gave the public another opportunity to see the visitors. Because of the death of the wife of one of his Cabinet, Pres. Vasquez early in 1979 before the scheduled close, he was equally as much comment about abrupt departure of the president as about his coming.

'The gentdarmarie at the Cape make arrangements, for visiting the Gite-dael. With real American dispatch, for which I was truly grateful, the chief officer secured a car and supplied as a guide a pleasant-faced intelligent gendarme who could speak a little 'English'. It is necessary to ride about, fifteen-miles from Cape Halitan to Haiti. We made the trip the ruffly, bumpy road. Occupied the town, the fact that it has opened up roads where none existed before. The hass of this pride must be the belief that a poor road is better than none at all. Along the route may be seen the ruin of crimbling houses, gate posts and walls, dating, from the French period. Except for two new schools the general appearance of houses and streets seems to indicate maps. An official told me there, and began change at Cap Haitien in the years he, had been there. All the money was spent on Au-Prince to make a show place of it.
Riding An Arduous Trail
At Milk we secured horses for the step climb up the mountain. An obliging girding supplied a pair of his khaki breeches and a boy offered to lead my rather fragrant horse. Just beyond the gendarme is the Palace of Sans Souci—beautiful even; in its ruins. We ride slowly over the grass grown steps which formerly led up to wide gardens and from their we start up the arduous trail to the Citadel. Occasionally we meet a peasant bringing down to, the village his small store of corn, red beans or bananas. The buzz of insects breaks the heavy silence of the woods about us. Several times I ask in halting Are we almost in trouble? "Pas amour, in trouble!" After two hours of reply, climbing we finally reach the immense fortress. From the outside there is no such appearance of decay as at Sans Souci.
We enter, a dark cobwebey, passage, and sign our names in the visitor's book. The gendarme leads the way to a brick well along the side of the fortress. The water is dark and murky, as if untopoped for a century. I hesitate and the guide assures me it is a fresh spring. Doubtless it is a fresh spring. The stronger urge of thirst and the desire to from this fountain of Christophe I am refreshed. We continue, our inspection. Through dark passages and along galleries, where naught cannon and mounds of cannon balls tell how thorough had been the preparation to defy the French, the guide leads unerringly. Along one hall are what were formerly secret openings, deep pits. The distant thud of a cannon in gives some idea of the depth and I wonder in horror how many victims are secret, unmarked, grave. We climb varying, levels until we stand on the thick, wall of the way top. On every side there is a sheer drop. What a desperate fear, and what a desperate courage, are here embodied! In the poetic prose of Blair Niles in *Black Haif*" "the Citadel" transmuted into beauty the stare."
Decay of Former Greatness.
The silence; the isolation, the decay of former greatness, bring a sadness which crowds into mind numberless half-formed thoughts. Only one becomes insistently clear—Where in Haiti is the Christophe who will transmute into more enduring monument than stone and mortar this black people's love of freedom! I spent just twenty-six days in Haiti; not a sufficient time to know well either the country or its peo-

ple. A further handicap was the possession 'of only' a school-book knowledge of French, and lack of facility in speaking the language. No one, I think, can come away from Haiti, however long or short the visit, without an ardent desire to see conditions there, changed . . . certainly not an American Negro. We, perhaps, procrastinate any other group, feel a relationship with all Negro peoples. We exult in their triumphs, we sorrow in their defeats. This sympathetic feeling may be
To know the country and its people well can best be accomplished by visiting Haiti. There is no better place to find relief from the hurried pace of America than in the leisured life of this country. Here, too, one finds not only the stimulus of a different culture but also opportunity to study the primitive Negro in a French setting.
Haitian correspondents for the Negro press, and vice versa, would enable great numbers who cannot travel a chance to know each group better. The exchange of papers and magazines among those who know French and English would further help in an understanding among the two people. In connection with this exchange we could, test the charge that mail is opened and often not delivered. One prominent member of L'Union Patriotique, in speaking about the difficulties of receiving his mail, said, "I am convinced it is the point of this government to keep apart the Haitians and colored Americans" by following a plan of correspondence it could be determined whether or not this is so.
How To Help Haiti
One Haitian editor has already suggested a way to use our political power, the concluding sentence in an article in *Le Monde* lists for August 2014, "We hope our compatriots of the country of Lincoln will form a bbc to demand from the next presidential candidate an improvement in our condition in return for their political support. The recommendations in "Occupied Haiti" and the resolutions of the Pan-African Congress suggest definite proposals, that may be put not only before presidential candidates but also before those for Congress. The questionnaires of The League of Women Voters suggest the methods. The greatest aid that we may render Haiti is to help the peasant. We may do this in an economic way by forming producers cooperative associations to supply our group here with such staples as coffee, coffee, sugar and citrus fruits. The peasant has the land; we could supply

Well, expectant folle the State list for 3rd grade clerk was established last week, containing more than, 2000 names. Among the first group can be seen the names of seventy of the 400"colored boys and girls who took the examination last fall. It was announced at the time that there would be many appointments as soon as the list was established. The list covers every city and county in the State; and since New York City and county are the largest, most of them will be made around these parts. It is to be noted this examination took this examination than any other examination in the history of the civil service.
Now there is another popular examination to be held by the City Civil Service; and that is for stenographer copyist. Applications will be distributed beginning September 13, and will close September 27. This is a popular grade 2 examination for stenographer and copyist, and it is the test from which most girls go into the service as stenographers or copyists. Any girl or boy over 17 years old should for this test. The pay is to $150 per annum, and this is mighty good pay for a youngster; and that is not all; promotion tests are held frequently, and salaries are increased according to their ability in these exams. Applications are ready now at the Municipal Building.
The monthly post office examination for clerk and carrier is another great feature of civil service employment for our group. The pay at the beginning is $1700, and increased each year to $2300 has been reached. This is also good pay. Applications are ready any time at the Custom House, New York.
The city service will hold another examination for policeman in the fall. The age limit for this test is 29 years, and is open to all men of sound physique. Those who want to go into this service will make application at the Municipal Building, machinery, capital and trained, management. Sash, an arrangement would make his land more productive, give him an incentive and provide a stable market for his produce. By helping the education of this group through scholarships either to *Haitian* or American schools a "divine discontent" may be engendered which will start the peasant on his own road of development. Robert Louis Stevenson has wisely written My duty to my neighbor is to make him happy, if I may. Would these things make the Haitians happy? It is for them to answer, men only, and many other examinations for which all can apply and have hope of appointment.
The city service will also hold examinations for the position of prosecution officer, social investigator, telephone operator; 2nd grade clerk; and for food inspector, as the last eligible was appointed last week. This position in the city servor pays $100 per annum.
