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 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.

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. M.; Elite Chapter, No. 9, Royal Arch Masons; Queen Ether Chapter, No. 2, O. E. S.; George E. Cannon Stelter, No. 2, Order of Antelope, and the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. Mary Daniels, of the surviving 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.

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.

Officers installed were: Mrs. H. Herben, assistant; Mrs. H. Herben, assistant; Miss P. E. Hook, recording secretary; Mrs. S. E. Mortimer correspondent; secretary; F. A. Ray, treasurer; Mrs. A. H. Hill, chaplain; Mrs. M. James, charity treasurer; Rev. M. C. Brown was this 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; A. four years ago I, attended a great missionary, congress. in Scotland that brought together the locus of the missionary movement. in 1813 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.' Carlisle, Pa. Carlisle, Pa.-Wm.

From Long Island, L. S.

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.

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. Reed had three previous convictions and had served terms in the penitentiary, while "Knocko Fool" had done 3 years in the New Jersey State Prison at Trenton, in addition, to other bits in Sing Sing and the penitentiary. He got six months for pickpocketing a year ago. Bauerschmidt making the arrest.

Degrees are awarded for completion of four-year courses in agriculture, home economics and education. Other courses of collegiate rank are offered in nurse training and trade technical training. These new courses, as Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal, noted in his annual report to the board of trustees, have been introduced "in response to the demand from public school officials of Alabama, as well as other southern" states, for college trained teachers in public schools." College Division Dean W. T. B. Williams has been appointed dean of the new collegiate division. Dean Williams is a graduate of Hampton Institute and Harvard University. He has taught school in Indianapolis and at Hampton, and for a number of years, has served as field agent for the Slater and Jeanes Funds. He THE VENETIAN TEA ROOM DELICIOUS FOOD, EFFICIENT SERVICE, ATTRACTIVE SURROUNDINGS Moderate Prices is author of several educational studies. Associated with Dean Williams is a faculty entirely composed of graduates of the best colleges of the country. Vice-Principal R. R. Taylor welcomed the students to Tuskegee Institute at the Thursday evening assembly. He urged them to get the most out of Tuskegee and to take advantage of every opportunity offered them. N. C.

Thirty years ago and tore ‘not a few, pseudo scientists dubbed the Negro the dying race ard solved the problem of his future'by citing a progressive excess of deaths over births, which would re- mult. in extinction. According to af ex- baustive article by Dr, Louis I. Dublin, petilished in the American Murcury for September, the basis for these doleful pivdictions was found in the transition peflod of reconstruction ‘following the Clie War, when the. plight of the freed- co was, indeed pitiful. He described tila situation, as follows a The newly freed slave was undisciplined, She lacked suficient food and clothing and owas forced into the most unsanitary habi- fe tations. During the last years of the six- Elia bectine especily rampant. ten bea Si fated under the prevailing conditions of life Sted oly, (o. feiebtfelly ‘high, infant death fates. In this way the foundations for the ete trying Nealth problems of recent de- se eades were laid. Boe the modern era, with the progtess Gi? sanitation and public heanh work’ has had its influence among Ne- grées as well as whites. Dr. Dublin finds ih predictions of extinction for-the dark- ei: race’ wholly, discredited by recent Hedlth statistics. Even under the prim- ze: sanitary conditions which’ still pre Nail in. certain—areas, he places the’ ex: Pectation of life among Negrées at Yorty- Six years, a figure equal to that of white Dinericans only thirty years ago. Against Gdeath ‘rate of thriyt-five ‘to forty per- thousand in Reconstruction days, Negro ortality is now only about the same as prevailed in many European countries a the World War. This is. pro- Rounced a great achievement, when it is Kept in mind that the race has been un- Mer ‘self-contro! for but little more than salf a century and enjoyed health con- porving- agencies-for even a shorter period. Bit, as Dr. Dublin, repeatedly asserts, ile Negro is a well-organized individ- kal with a marked ‘capacity for 4 tong in.” *. . As a proof.of this gain in health and bugevity, Dr. Dublin disregards the fcanty records gathered from “official Fodrees and cites the experience of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, fyiich is stated to have more than two Mtifiton colored policy holders, nearly .one- fiith of the race in this country. Natur- pily;: it will be claimed that these are elected risks and that the showing made Rvauld be more favorable thati if it includ- ed the ‘uninsured masses. This is offset }5éome extent by the fact that the in- pred are mostly city dwellers and health Sonditions among that class have always Been less satisfactory than on the farms. tiese policy holders,. including men, wo- en and children of all ages and occu- Mitfons, show a declining death-rate from [78 per 1,000 in 1911' to 14.6 per 1,000 in 1 926, This decline in the rate of mortality am been most gratifying in tuberculosis, lthough it is still too high, one out of every six dying of that disease. The Handicap of heavy infant and child mor- Hality has been largely reduced and im: proved. sanitary conditions have worked a deitine in deaths by typhoid fever and BActimonia. On the other hand, Dr. Dublin noted some tnfavorabie features fivthe increased number -of deaths (rom tHrdnic degenerative diseases, Five of pach diseases accounted for 36.3 per cent. peithe deaths aniong colored policy hold Eth;; Syphilitlc infection was held to be eaponsible for the difference between’ the Rioreality of the two races, its ravages Seiag most marked atong city dwellers. ea et era eer enae ten sera erin Ree, cece) tribize to the migration of poesibiy-a million Negroes, removed from the com: paratively ensy fite of the: South to the more trying -.envirotiment of Norther cities. This unfavorable reaction which may only be tenforary, possibly furnished the' basis for the pessimistic feport ‘on tealth coriditions tade at the recent Elks convention in New York, by. Dr. William J. Thompkits of Kansa3 City, This report declared that’ “Negro health coriditions, as far as sanitation and hots: ing go, aré worse than evet before,” es- pétially im the Sotthern and ceriral cities, Neglect and bad living conditions were blamed for the high percentage of tuberculosis and excessive infant mortal ity. Failure of 6fficials to enforce pub- lic health fawa was included as one 6} tie friain, causes for these conditions ‘Neverthéless, Dr. Thompkits said that the mortality rate is being steadily te- duced and he- denied emphaticany that Negroes conatitute “a dying’ race.” The data on which his statements were baded wag obtained through the Elks Health committee working’ through some seven hundred local lodges. Dr. Thomp Kins is assistant health commissioner o} “Kansas City and should be conversant with loctl conditions at least Returning to Dr. Dublin's article, we ‘find him expressing some optimistic sen. ments as to what the futtire hotds for the Negro, His very ability (o- comé North in such large numbers iy crédites with effecting 2 change for the better ir the economic and sotial position of thos who have remuined in the South. Evi dence of the New prosperity of the South is seen in-the freshness and prosperity of the towns and villages where Negroes live, Dr. Dublin noted “evidence éPintel ligent leadership directing the energies the young people, into constructive chan nels.” He considers that the interests o} the race will be best served by remaining largely on the farms, and staying in th South, “where adjustments will make hi Wie easier and richer.” That stich adjust ments are sorely npeded, nobody cai deny. 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 lions, some, time afer the close of th present Century. This slowing up of na tural increase wall not be confined to col cored people however, but ‘will apply to th entire population, .+ but sthall change will occur in the relative numerical im: portance of the race, unless unforseer circumstances should change the picture His optimistic conclusion as to the Ne gro’s future reads: “He is here for- good and the years to come will probably se him playing an increasingly.important anc worthy part in the affairs of the country His achievement in “America will be ul timately recognized not only as the great est experiment én racial adjugtment eve undertaken by man, but as the most en couraging and gratifying episode in ow national lifes” * et bes ihe most heartening prediction ve hay }¢ across in a long time, 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, they find but few: business establishments 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 necessities. ‘These enterprises were short-lived, due to lack of support by the public, or lack of experience on the part of the promoter or hoth combined, - There is need of experience in every enterprise catering to the needs of the public, whether in ‘the way of persortai torviee or the sale of goods.

WHITE- ‘WHITE EPISCOPAL CHURCH PRESENTS .. | _FINE AUSTIN PIPE ORGAN T0 COLORED PAPTIST CHURCH FROM WOMAN'S LEGACY “4 casual flance at a program which came into my hands by adince led to my being present at Trinity Baptist Church, 810 East ub street, Willamsbridge, the Rey, B, T. Harvey, pastor, on Wed- teary evening, September 7., The, occasion was the dedication of Myer 2maoual Austin organ, recently installed in this church, ac- fending to the program, “through.the tintiring efforta of-Mr, Benjamin, F. Brown ir” + ts 5, * Primary interest was aroused by the announcemeiit that it was’ an gust” organ, an aristocrat among American-built instruments, one| geidom heard in churches which house small congregations of limited Gaocal resources, The “untiring Mr, Brown" was mentally pictured| ts2 possible philanthropist, with a.leaning toward the dignifying of iorch music and a penchant for aiding those who would be al ppeciative of such a vebicle ‘of expression. And, to0,.Mrs. Brown tu scheduled to do the unveiling. = Aod when the program opened, this interest was intensified when vas discovered that Mr. Brown, while not materializing as the ac- tal philanthropist, had, through personal connections, enlisted the eoperation of an agency-which, possibly, could have been secured in wo other way. . oot * Briefly told, Mr. Brown, as a boy, entered the service of a wealthy Park arene family which consisted of three sisters—the tWo Misses Forsiss and Mrs. Marguerite Zimmerman, And he- had remained ‘wih this family for years, until the three ladies had finally folded their fobes of activitiy on this earth and been transjated to etherial regions, Mr Zimmerinan being the last to go. And by her will, a large som aimoney was devised tp the St. Michaels R. E, Church, 225 West 99th seeet, of which the Rev, Dr. Thomas McCandless is the present rector: Sc Michaels ig-a wealthy parish, and had no need itself for the ener coming from the Zimmerman estate” But the rector and his. ‘durch oficials bad an unselfish vision of what they thought’ would | fave pleased Mea Zimmerman most, and that céntéred 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 tit establishment by St. Michaels of the St, Jude Chapel at 19 West Shh street for kervice to the colored people of that section, and which. miler the vicarship of the Rev. Floarda Howard, has become one of te most vital influences for good in this great city.~ 1 | And when the little Williamsbridge congregation, the Trinity Bap- ‘st Church, had completed its present modest structure, costing some- thing over $30,000, burdened with a marigage of about $19,000, dere arose 4 need! for music equipment which the congregation was poody prepared to meet. : \Now Benjamin F. Brown jr. is chairman of-Trinity’s Board of trus- teespand in this emergency, there came an inspiration to Mr. Brown, tora of his memory of Mrs, Zimmerman. He went to one af the offi cals 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 Bap- 2st group with which he is"connected. “The result of this applicatiog eventuaied on this September nigbt by the coming to Williamsbridge of St. Michael's rector, Dr. Me- Candless, who, in heartfelt sincerity, told of St, Michael's stewardship. isohr as the bequest from Mrs. Zimmerman'is concerned; of the ser- vice being sendered the parish and coromunity in general by St Jude's: and of-the gratification afforded by this opportunity to extend the ser tee made possible by a splendid Chitistian woman's legacy And then he handed over to Ms. Brown, on befalf of St. Michael's ‘Sharch officiary, a check for $1,800, one-half of the cost of the beauti- fal little pipe organ which was on that night dedicated to the service ¢é God and the enhancement of the musical utterances of Trinity’s agregation, and. which, bad previously beea 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. Zimmer- an, by virtue of this splendid contribution from Sc." Michael's, and a cmmemoratory -placque is to be placed at the church entrance that 1 who pass smay learn of the good done in her name. Adi intefesting program was arranged for the dedication. The Rev. Dr. Harvey, pastor, welcomed the audience and introduced John L Anderson, secretary of the board of trusteos, a8 master of cere- eonies Mrs. Brown, with a brief statement, unveiled the organ as the choir and congregation sang ."Praise God from Whom all bles- sags flow", and Pastor Harvey offered the dedicatory prayer. ‘The master of ceremonies introduced Mr. Brown, who in turn pre- ented Dr. Candless. The St. ichaels' rector, after his felicitous tweech, presented, on behalf :of -his officeriy the check .to Chair- an Brown for Trinity's trustees. Mr. Brown then gave an igterest- ig 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 paitor, who passed it on to the church treasurer, Madison S, Jones, ‘A muscal program followed. in which the dliurch organist, Mrs Othe M. Royal, played several groups; Mme. Lillian Royal and Miss Myrtle Paschal of Jamaica sang soles: a quartet from the choir head- ed 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 Ixbalf of the choir body, presented a beautiful bouquet to Mrs. Brown. And as the result of a beauty sbow held receftly, the choir, through 4 representative, presented $100 to Mr. Brown to be applied fo the or- re fund . DrpMelville Charlton Plays Another interesting event in connection with the dedication of Trisity’s new organ was the playing on Friday night, September 9, of 2 brief program by Dr. Melville Chariton of Brooklyn, the race's mas- ter organist, ho for many years has’presided at the organ in the chap- Wl of the great Presbyterian university.
