Later, a dispatch from Rome credited Bragaglia, with explaining the incident, declaring that Mayor Walker did not ask for the ejection of Negroes from the cafe, but when he saw two dark men dancing, expressed surprise that I permitted them to dance with white women. The cabaret owner said: "I told him reason was that I am a Catholic and was a Catholic Church not only enigrated black people as brethren in Christ but the Pope created Negro Bishops.

A chalky faced, slender youth in a close fitting blue suit and wearing patent leather shoes, stood near him. Almost before they knew what had happened, five detectives suddenly surrounded and overcame them and rushed them to the office of Inspector Coughlin. Police had at last captured the "black and white handits" whose exploits had kept the police of Brooklyn and Manhattan on their trail for more than a year, and whose names tucked terror to chain store managers of both Boroughs. According to police, the Negro, David Mitchell (alias Bob, Smith), Frank Smith and Harry Clarke, 26, and the white youth, Frank Moore (alias Leonard Davis), 24, condensed to more than a hundred bildings in this city. The Negro also is said to have admitted that he had a long previous career of handiwork and said that in Baltimore, Md., he had shot and cripped a bank clerk.

He de Francee by Mayor Walker, denying "this silly report" that he demanded the ejecting of Negroes from an Italian cabaret. He suggested to the World that "it might be interesting for you to inquire why this foolish story persists." On his arrival home, the Mayor was unwilling to talk about that part of his trip which European dispagates have made so much of. He told reporters' "I visited but a single night club all the time I was away. That was Josephine Baker's place in Paris." He denied ever having been in a Roman cabaret. He added, "The man who can thing of going to a cabaret in Rome, amid the ancient and modern beauties that are there, is lacking in good sense.

HUNDREDS THRONG DOCK TO WELCOME FLORENCE MILLS When the French liner, the luxurious *Hte de France*, docked at its pier, Tuesday, September 27, the most conspicuous of its passengers were Mayor James J. Walker and his wife and Florence Mills, the dainty little comedie, who are all claimed as its own by New York City.

J.—After a continued existence for twenty years the North Jersey Medical Association composed of physicians, dentists and pharmacists was recently dissolved. A resolution to bring about this effect was passed by the Society at its meeting in August. Peculiarly enough this dissolution was the result of a condition which does not prevail with many organizations. It was found that the organization had become too large to function properly, and it was deemed advisable, after much consideration, to separate, into distinct organizations. In the future there will be three societies composed, respectively, of physicians, dentists and pharmacists. On last Wednesday evening the physicians, who have been identified with the organization, met and reorganized as the North Jersey Medical Society, Dr. William H. Washington of Newark, and Dr. George E. Bell of Montclair, who had acted as president and secretary, respectively, of the old organization, were elected to the same positions in the new. Dr. S. E. Burke was selected as treasurer. The committees on constitution and hy-laws and program were appointed. The newly formed group of physicians will have its first regular meeting in October in the basin. NEW YORK, N. Y., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1927 COLORED LEGIONNAIRES ATTENDING THE AMERICAN LEGION CONVENTION, PARIS, SEGREGATED BY HOUSING COMMITTEE COLORED LEGIONNAIRES ATTENDING THE AMERICAN LEGION CONVENTION, PARIS, SEGREGATED BY HOUSING COMMITTEE When the colored American Legionaires attending the Paris convention found themselves billeted for their stay in the French Capital, it was discovered that practically all of them, some twenty in number, had been assigned to two stopping places, and that none other than American Negro Legionaires were placed there. Believing it to have been a deliberate expression of prejudice caused by the attitude of a number of white southerners who remained in France after the Armistice, Major Wm. S'Bradden, chaplain, of the 8th Regiment, Illinois National Guard, wrote the following open letter to the chairman of the housing committee, who had charge of the delegates: AN OPEN LETTER TO MONSIEUR EDWIN. W. THORN. 9 Ave. Victor Immanuel, Paris France Sir: As a member of the American Legion, Giles Post, No. 87, Chicago, Ill., and as an officer of the U. S Army of thirty years standing, I herein protest against the apparent discrimination of the Housing Committee of which you are chairman. Why have you placed all Negro delegates to the conventing at No. 61, rue Blanche, and No. 29 rue Fountaine? Not that any fault is found with the places or people, for they, as is true of all French people, are most charming, but they themselves have asked the question, "Why have you sent all 'Black Americans' to our place? Is it that they are undesirable?" I submit that the mere housing of twenty Negroes in one place is no mere freak of chance, but the result of a well-worked out plan. Therefore, in behalf of twelve million Americans, citizens at home; in home of a hundred thousand Negroes who fought on French soil that "All men might be up, not some men down"; in behalf of our honored dead who have kept their "rendezvous with death" and now sleep in the cold embrace of French soil, I protest against your obvious discrimination in a land where such is unknown only insofar as it is brought here by such actions as yours.

He also startled his hearers by announcing that Joseph Sullivan, past grand master and father of the temple plan, had not invested one cent in the project. Mr. Sullivan had promised to obtain a loan from the Mayor of Troop his in city, but this money was never forthcoming, concluded Mr. Teagle. In view of the fact that Grand Master Sullivan issued an edict that all Master Masons who failed to purchase a $100 bond would be expelled from the craft, there was considerable resentment over Mr. Sullivan's failure to support his own edict. confer with the engineer, the builder and the architect to work out a plan whereby the temple could be completed at a cost not to exceed $125,000.

Sierra Leone, West Africa—220,000 natives will be formally freed from slavery by action of Legislative Council of the Sierra Leone Protectorate on September 22, which passed an ordinance legally abolishing the legal status of slavery. An ordinance was passed last year, at request of the Government of Sierra Leone, designed to remove the last vestige of recognition of the status of slavery. But two slave owners who were convicted of recapturing a runaway slave had that conviction quashed on an appeal to the Sierra Leone Supreme Court. As a result of that decision the further action by the Legislative Council was requested by the Government, which has a majority in the Council.

Patrolmen Claim They Acted In Self-Defense As Injuries Received Placed Both On Sick Report; Charges To Police Commissioner Carter and Peter Watkins, brothers, 28 and 21 years old, respectively of 440 St. Nichalos avenue, were arrested Sunday morning, September 18, between 3 and 4 o'clock; after they and three other men had been told by Policeman Thomas Brosman of the 16th Precinct that they were making too much noise in front of their door at that hour in the morning. But before they were arrested, both men became subjects for surgical and medical attention, and Patrolman Brosman, with Patrolman Heyward Beverly, a colored officer who had been on duty on the adjoining beast, needed the same sort of attention. Seeing that his brother officer was in need of help, Beverly said he ran into the hallway, where the two men were enslapping, and made to assist Brosman in subduing Carter. But just then he was grabbed from the rear with finger Judge Denounced Officers As a result when the men were arraigned for trial in the Washington Heights Court before Magistrate Jesse Silberman, with Counsellor John Williston Smith, former Alderman, as their attorney, the cases against the men were dismissed and the judge characterized the arresting officers as "raving maniacs", and "infuriated beasts", declaring that no punishment the court could inflict, even though the men might be guilty, would equal the punishment they had received at the hands of the officers. The two Watkins men, in court, had their heads swathed in banaages with eyes discolored and faces badly bruised. Peter claimed that his arms, legs and body were a mass of bruises, while Carter said he had a fractured rib. It was reported that an ambulance doctor from Harlem Hospital had taken eight stitches in Peter's scalp, while Carter needed two stitches for a deep cut in his head. The two policemen were in bad shape, too. Brosman was badly heaten, and suffered a possible fracture of the right wrist, while Beverly's eyes were blackened, his left cheek badly gouged, and he was bruised from kicks on both arms and legs, some of which narrowly missed the groin. Different Stories Told. Stories as to what happened differ in the most essential particulars. The Carter brothers, with a number of their neighbors as witnesses, claim that the policemen set upon them without warrant or cause and brutally beat them up with their night sticks. On the other hand, the officers declare that such injuries as they inflicted upon the men were given while defending themselves from the prisoners who were resisting arrest. Patrolman Beverly, a clean-cut young fellow, just one year on the force, was asked for his version of the affair. He said that while patrolling his heat, about a clock on the morning of September 18, he was signaled by Patrolman Brosman, who said that a bunch of men were making a disturbance in front of 440 St. Nicholas avenue, and that they seemed averse to obeying his orders to go in the house or move away. Their attitude, he said, indicated an inclination to offer resistance "to gang him" as he phrased it. Thinking that the appearance of two officers might have a stronger effect, Brosman asked Beverly to accompany him. The two patrolmen accordingly walked to 440, where a group of five men were standing. Brosman, according to Beverly, went up to the men and in a quiet manner reminded them that he had asked them to discontinue their hoisteries actions and either go into other house or disperse. Made Obscene Remark. The men agreed, and Peter Watkins, with three of the men, one of whom was afterwards identified as Joseph Reynolds of 440 S. Nicholas avenue, started to walk away. But Carter Watkins, who was standing in the entrance to 440, made an obscene, insulting remark concerning the officers, which impelled Patrolman Brosnan to attempt to put him under arrest. This was registered by Carter and the physical arrest. 5 CENTS. U. S. A. (TEN CENTS.

Seeing that his brother officer was in need of help, Beverly says he ran into the hallway, where the two men were usaging, and made to assist Brosman in subduing Carter. But just then he was grabbed from the rear, with fingers encircling his neck, and this was followed by the gouging of finger nails down his face, a rain of blows which bruised and blackened his eye and kicks which reached and injured. The nature of the attack declares Patrolman Beverly, made it necessary for Breamst, and himself to exert themselves to the utmost, and the injuries inflicted upon the Watkins brothers, were caused by the fury with which the brothers assaulted the officers. In the melle, the other three men disappeared. Men Contradict Police. On the other hand, statements by the injured men, supported by testimony offered by the superintendent of the building and three women tenants, were diametrically opposed to Patrolman Beverly's report, as quoted by their lawyer. A letter from John William Smith of 26 Cortlandt street, their attorney, declares that "two of the most shameless beattings, which I have ever had to contend with were the same," and describes deceitful spectacle colored citizens by two members of the Police Department, one white, named Broswan, and the other colored, whose name I have not been able to ascertain up to the present time." Continuing, the letter states that the two brothers reside at 440 Str Nicholas avenue, Peter beijing a railroad porter and Carter a barber, and that at the time of this occurrence, Peter was in bed and Carter was on the stoop just returning from his work as a barber; that when the officer ordered Carter from the stoop, he was told by the latter that he paid rent in that house* and had a right to be barred from the stoop; that the officer once started heating the man with his night stick, and that Carter's yells of "murder" and "police" brought; his brother Peter down stairs just as the cobored offices came up. Rev. Hayes Interested. The letter declared that Petera was "struck in the head. Both of them were knocked unconscious and suffered fractures of the skull and one of them had his ribs fractured, and both of them were bathed in blood as if dipped in a tub. . . . I was brought into the case through Rev. Hayes, who knows the family, all of which come from Danville, Va., and all of them respectable people." The men, when arrested, were held in $1,500 bail on charges of felonious assault. Their cases were heard Sunday, the 18th, and adjourned to the 20th, then to the 23rd. Trial began Friday afternoon, the 23rd, and was concluded Saturday morning, when Magistrate Silberman dismissed the cases. At the same time, he suggested to Attorney Smith that charges should be filed with Police Commissioner Warren against the two police officers, but declined himself to entertain charges or to issue warrants for their arrests. According to police officials; both officers, Beverly in particular have won commentation and they ask, "What is a police officer to do when prisoners resist arrest and assault them—just stand and be beaten" Both officers, after the affair, were examined and treated by hospital and police surgeons. Beverly was on sick report from Sunday to Friday, and Brosing was still on sick report on Monday, the 26th. Beverly was on sick Wednesday. William Mobley Has Won Fortune and Friends As Owner and Handler of Fine Dogs In American Bench Shows Kentucky Born, Lives In Haverhill, Mass., and Numbered J. P. Morgan, Banker, As Friend; Shows Boston Terriers, Likes All Dogs In the Sunday Herald Tribune, an interesting story is told by Frank F. Dole, one of America's most noted dog fanciers, about William Mobley of Haverhill, Mass., a colored man, born in Kentucky, who, through his love for dogs, became the friend of J. Pierrepont Morgan and other of the country's distinguished citizens; and amassed a comfortable fortune. The story follows: By FRANK F. DOLLE. The dog game has a peculiar faculty for drawing to it and holding the interests of persons in all walks of life. It breeds friendships between the lowly and the great, and it is not surprising that it is best attached to it many in unselfish personhood. One such is certainly William Mobley, of Haverhill, Mass., known there and to all dog fanciers as Professor Bill. tions and then give it according to the reputation of the dog or the menner. Although he thinks the Boston about the greatest breed there is, he surprised me by picking another variety when I asked him what he considered the greatest dog he ever saw. Without the least hesitation he replied, "The Alredale, King Owring." He answered for forget. He looked perfectly able to do anything any other dog could do, and then some." William Mobley, a Negro boy was born down in Kentucky and like all boys there, Negro as well as his white, his first canine pals were the boon dawgs. He rambled with his dog, and he wielded and grew to have an understanding of and love for all dogs, irrespective of, size, color or breeding. Convinced the greatest opportunity for men of his race lay in the North, Bill left Keppy and in 1873 wandered into Haverhill with his dog, a firm determination to get somewhere. That today, he is one of the substantial residents of that community, comfortably wealthy and a power for good in the city, speaks well for his, determination, his honesty and his sterling worth that he possessed. In those days Haverhill was great center for pit bull terriers and Professor Bill first wilt in for them. He loved all dogs too much, however, to stay at that long. He quickly decided the pitting of dogs against one another was too brutal, so he to the Boston syriers then being just brought forward as a popular breed and developing into their present greatness. Selle Terrier To Morgan. It was his interest in Boston terriers that brought to Professor Bill a friendship he has always cherished. It was early one morning at the 1910. Westminster show at the 1910 arder when a pretty man came in and one of the attendants at the show whispered to Bill, who was working over his dogs, "That's J. P. Morgan." The banker, a great dog fancier, came over to the Boston section and began to talk to Bill about the terriers. He said that he wanted one for a friend and Bill recommended dog calls to Bill. But Bill Jack Sullivan. This dog weighs eleven pounds and was a good one from the tip of its nose to its tail. Mr. Morgan said he would either come back later in the day or send someone else. When Sullivan arrived he made deal with him to buy the 150 lay coat the day Mr. Morgan returned and Bill introduced him to the owner, to whom the banker gave a check for $750. Later Jack Sullivan said "I'll fix it up with you when we get back home." Probably he would have done so he had not contracted pneumonia and died shortly after the show. While there was no money in the trade for Bill, it started what became a great 'friendship. Each year when he arrived at the New York show one of the first persons to look Bill up was Mr. Morgan. They would talk over the game, discussing what had happened during the year. Bill would show their good points to his fellow waiter, and then they would adjourn to the colliery section, where the great arling from the Morgan kens were on exhibition, and talk over the chances of the colliies in the coming competition. Met Many Great Men. "That experience more than anything else" Bill told the writer, "convinced me there was a great opportunity for the black man to get ahead. Since then I have had the chance to meet some of the greatest men in the world, and I have found that in the things that matter the greatest difference. I am a great believer in my race, and since I came here I have been able to see they were well looked after. Professor Bill made his start as a bootblack and still owns a bootblack parlor and tailoring establishment. At one time or another, he bought the theater in Haverhill, at one time having them all under his direction. He has helped more people get on their feet than any other person I know, and the resident of Haverhill swear by him. The Bootblack Theater Bill's loyalty and he can be found at many of the shows with a few good ones on exhibition. He dislikes the present day judging and was most outspoken about it at the recent Essex County show. He helped the Indian professional, handling the sporting group and bad. "That's the way to judge. He just looks them over, makes up his mind and places them as he sees them. I do not like the stalling that most people do; they have to go through. The Bootblack Theater tions and then give it according to the stipulation of the dog or the owner. Although he thinks the Boston about the greatest breed there is, he surprised me by picking an ant and taking him home. What he considered the greatest dog he ever saw. Without the least, he replied. "The Airedale, King Orang. He made a picture I can never forget. He made anything other dog could do, and then some." In spite of his dialysis for the modern judging, Bill has continued from the start to support the dog, game and the breed to which he is devoted. He has done much for it and has funneled it into the game. As one tower of the game once said to him, "He may be black out the outside, but underneath he is as, white as they make them!"

Spine writers, such as Max Nordseil in his work, 'Degeneracy,' prophesied that, there would be a sort of, black death in which men would ask themselves in horror: What next? Others, seeing a brand new America fordish that woman would occupy a brand new place; that, politidans would 'damor for the things that they had fought against, tremendously; that conservative Wall street would agitate a policy which it had formerly been entirely against; that our social institutions would disappear overnight and that all our social standards would vanish from the earth." "But in the midst of all this prologying and preaging no man foretold, the change that would take place in what was then considered an altogether insignificant 'group.' The Colored Catholics of America. New Type Envolved "Twenty seven years ago this group was considered most humble, most faithful, most loyal, who did not know nor was it possible to interest them in the importance of organizing themselves for their spiritual and temporal advancement. I confess that the group was organized, the granite was agitated; for, I remembered as a child the attitude of colored Catholics way down below the Mason and Dixon Line in Louisiana. We will follow the Lamb whither-sovere He goeth, they said, and they made no effort, to give their education, nor to grant the Church of America of a native priest, nor for any other progressive move for which this body is striving. "Your coming here, today, brings home the fact that a new type of colored Catholic has envolved during the decades of this, new century, a man who loyalty to the Church man who loyalty to the Church in the efforts he is putting forward to bring larger success to his Brothers within her door." Orangeburg Church Welcomes Faculties From Two Colleges Orangeburg Church Welcomes Faculties From Two Colleges Orangeburg, S. C.-Trinity M. E.

To Answer Porters The Brotherhood of: Sleeping Car Porters has made public a letter received from the Secretary of the Interstate Commerce Commission, George B. McGinty, stating that the petition of the porters had been docked No. 20,000 and that a convoy had been forwarded to the Pullman Company with a notice "satisfy the complaint or answer" in writing within twenty days" from September 17. The action of the porters in bringing the Pullman Company before the Commission in favor to compel the company to pay a living wage instead of having the porters beg for the major portion of their wage from the travelling public after said public had already paid the company for all services it was capable of rendering through the porters has occa- The honors that were showered upon Mayor James J. Walker of New York during his visit to England, Ireland, Germany, Italy and France are really a compliment to the American people. New York's mayor has been another Lindbergh in the manner in which he has cemented international good will. Wherever he has gone, old world notables and high governmental officials (but even more than this, the people themselves) have delighted to do him honor. The mayor's ready wit, his attractive personality, his youth and his keen grasp of public questions have attracted attention and aroused admiration everywhere. Mayor Walker is a living example of the opportunities that men of all races find in America. The son of an Irish immigrant, this chief executive of the world's greatest city typifies the spirit of our country and the awards that America bestows upon the able and deserving. It is good for Europe to have had a chance to look Mayor Walker over, and it is well that Mayor Walker went to Europe, for his trip has bound closer than ever those ties of blood and tradition which link America—the great melting pot of all races—to the people of the world.

Philip A. Payton, Jr. Company 328 LENOX AVE Harlem 7602 Although He Announced Troth From His Own Pulpit, Rev. Matthews Did Not Marry Fiance, Mrs. M. B. Doughty Member of Bundick Family In Brooklyn Denies That Minister Kept His Promise To Wed Her But Says He Was Tangled With Two Others The report that the Rev. A. C. Matthews, recently resigned pastor of Berean Baptist Church, Bergen street, near Rochester avenue, Brooklyn, had remarried before giving up his pastorate and that his bride was "one of the young ladies of the Bundick family." seems to have been true only in part. Mrs Maud Bundick Doughty, who was the one referred to in the story, has called at The Age office to declare emphatically that the Rev Matthew had not married her although it was true that she had consented to marry him, and he had announced the engagement from the Berean Church pulpit, gaiting that the marriage was to take place late in September. Nowwithstanding this public announcement by the pastor, it appears that the minister, for some reason, did not carry his part of the contract, but did surreptitiously slip away with another female immigrant who had displaced Mrs. Bundick Doughty in his affliction. And it is said that the minister and his love are domiciled to the home of his brother, Alphonso Matthews, somewhere in the Bofford section, instead of being away in some unknown quarter, enjoying their honeymoon. Shipped Men Twenty. Years Mrs. Doughty was reluctant to to speak of her personal relations with the Rev. Mr. Matthews, but she stared that although she had been separated from her first husband some twenty years, the minister was the first man she had permitted to engage her consideration during that time. After five years of unhappy wedded life, her husband Mr. Doughty, left their Long Island home, located at Argodice, and went away. Three years ago he died at Portsmouth Va. "We're spoiling of 'love's young dream,' the disillusioned woman again to trust no man again but the shewled quiet manager of her partner brought her to the point that she believed he would bring a renaissance to her life and she agreed that she would let him take her in his arms. But it appears now that there are others who objected to such consumption. One, it is alleged, to a married woman who whose house was flooded and whose valley of shadow the light of the prospective view was looking forward to the breaking of that chain as freeing he to begin a new life as the beld of the dominie. And another, younger in years an elder of the two already referred to, and still swearing the dupper of maidenhood, was equally interested in the comnubial feature of the recently widowed, clergy under whose pastoral administrations she sat each Sunday—to each Sundavs as she attended church. Both Widows Lose Preacher Then came the death of the married woman's husband, early in September and an ultimatum: it is alleged, was immediately hurled at the pastor's head that death would follow his failure to woo the widow. The predicament forced the preacher to confide in his fiance whom he had publicly proclaimed to be his prospective bride, but the refused to allow himself to be persuaded into any condition that would humiliate or embarrass her, either immediately or in the future. And so it seems, the distracted twin turned to the younger woman and she responded to the extent that both the widow and the worried fiance, herself a widow of older estate, are still husbandless. Mrs Doughty, referring to the twenty-year period during which she isolated herself from the wives of the bengal swains, declares that the deformation of the preacher was the best thing that could have happened to her. The failure of her first marriage, loving deeply as the did, had steeled her against her insidious maneuvers, but the had hoped that in this newfound love there would be found ```markdown ``` THE CANADIAN HOTEL REID STREET Hamilton Bermuda The Leading Colored Hotel in the Sunny Isles of Bermuda First Class Accommodations Terms Reasonable JAMES RICHARDS Proprietor BLANKS' RIVERVIEW COTTAGES Come to Portsmouth, the garden spend your vacation; where the waters natures most beautiful sea slivery moonlight on the water, beaches in Maine and New Hait the White Mountains.

That another disappointment comes to her is compensated for to some extent in that it came before she had taken another irrevocable step - while there is a possibility of being saved from a mortal wound. In the meantime, according to Mrs Doughty, the Rew Mr. Matthews and his bride, the former Miss Clara Green, are reported to be enjoying life in Brooklyn. The former Matthews' home, at 1672 Dean street, belonging to Alphonzo, the minister's brother, has been vacated, and the couple are to be seen gayly motoring around the streets of Brooklyn and its environs in the handsome automobile which was presented the preacher by the members of his former church while he was still their beloved and esteemed pastor.

Moore on his nomination for Alderman and wishing him well in the coming election. The card says in part: "The copy of your paper was received today for which I am very grateful. This is a fine place and Beginning with the issue of Saturday, October 8, THE NEW YORK-AGE will devote two columns to educational news. The object of setting aside this section of the paper for educational news is to familiarize the parents with the work of the public schools, and to bring the school and the home into closer connection for the benefit of the children. The child is, the center of each and every home. Few, indeed, are the homes where great sacrifices are not all the time being made for the sake of giving the children an education, and thus helping them to amount to something in the world. Yet, many of the parents have but an indefinite idea of exactly what constitutes this educational work. THE NEW YORK AGE hopes to bridge over this chasm between the school and the parent, and thus help both parent and school to more intelligently forward the interests of the child. Educational happenings of various kinds will be recorded in this column. Space will be devoted to telling what is actually accomplished in the schools, and suggestions from parents and others will be most welcome. We will be very glad indeed for anyone interested in public education, whether that person is a parent or merely a friend of education, to write into the paper and tell us just exactly what he wants to know about education, and we will be pleased also to have him discuss educational topics. Suggestions as to how the school can serve the children better always will be welcome. The closer the tie between the school and the home, the better will be the type of citizen produced. Please address any communications to Editor, Educational Department, THE NEW YORK AGE. the educational opportunities are unexcelled. I am sure that I shall make the best of everything Give my regards to the office personnel, and I hope Mr. Moore gets elected as Alderman "ARTHUR WALLEK." Victory Life Pays First Claim In N. Y. District In 3 Days The Victory Life Insurance Company scored a victory by paying its first New York claim in three days. The death claim was filed Friday September 23 as 4 o'clock. A check of $980.52 was in the branch office in Harlem Monday morning at 12 to be delivered to Missinie Cromer, guardian of Launie Cromer, a minor, the beneficiary. This first New York claim was paid on the life of Mrs. Evelyn Sedie Pollock, a dressmaker of Brooklyn. She took out her pollock with the Victory Life Company on May 21 having paid only a semi-annual premium of $19.45. The manager Lemie Foster said, "It will always be the policy of the Victory Life Insurance Company to serve the public with prompt remittances on all legitimate claims." A. M. E.

Mission work at St. Thomas Dr. Lord's immediate plans are unsettled as he is awaiting action by Bishop Gaines on a request for reevaluation or for a transfer. Dr. Lord was in the United States two years ago. He took back with him printing material which masked him to publish The West Indian Recorder through the medium of which he hoped to establish a more cordial relationship between his church and the people Money searched and a constant departure of people from the Islands handicapped him to such an extent he was unable to continue. The A.V.E Church maintains missions in other localities in the Virgin Islands but Dr. Lord's work was the only one in St. Thomas ```markdown ``` Weak, Nervous Tired Feeling Above is a picture of Mrs. Lena McCann, 709 Short 9th St., Birmingham, Ala.

Mc.-A new health center has been established at the Cardinal Gibbons Institute by the Circle for Negro Health of WD Seventh avenue, New York City, Miss Belle Davis, executive secretary, with a trained nurse, Miss Siglether, in active charge. The nurse has been specially trained under a Circle scholarship for this work, and she will develop the health work which the school has emphasized during three years of persistent coffer. Miss Siglether, with Principal and Mrs. Daniels ad some of the teachers from the institute, drove into Charles County and had contact with many of the people, and visited St Paul's Parochial School meeting parents and pupils and was introduced by Father Thibbels and Mr. Daniels. She also met the people at Great Mills. Plans for the health center include the immediate establishment of clinics for children prenatal and maternity cases, and immunization work will be started under supervision of Dr. Francis M. Munson of the State Department of Health. Cheese, Potent Witness, Sends A Man To Jail Cheese, twenty pounds of the imported Roman product, valued at a dollar a pound, was the stellar witness in the Court of Special Sessions, Monday and spoke for itself when Verneon Smith, window washer, was held on a theft charge. Michelle Lamonaco, grocer at 162 Mulberry street, testified that he had employed Smith to wash the windows of his store and that he had seen the accused put the cheese in a bucket and carry it off when the windows had been cleaned. Justice Murphy ordered the silent witness removed from the court room when the scents proved too strong for him. Smith denied the theft saving that he didn't like the smell or the taste of cheese and couldn't account for it being in his bucket. The three lureses agreed that although the cheese might, have been strong enough to walk into the bucket, they doubled that it had done so. They remanded Smith to the Tomb for sentence on October 3. Yes, there is no cheese on the prison bill of fare and Smith can be thankful for that. Decatur Negro Is Good Farmer and Prosperous (From Albany (Ga.) Herald) Lean times do not mean much to Louis Harp, a leading Decatur County Negro farmer, who can sell off at almost any time of the year enough of his staple products to meet the necessities of life while waiting for his old-time favorite King Cotton, to "come off" Louis once 612 acres of land just off State Route No. 38 near town.

Since last May the members of the Police and Fire departments of New York City have been awaiting action on the bill introduced in the Municipal Assembly to give them an eight-hour working day. This bill is now in the hands of a committee of the Board of Aldermen, but no hearing has been given for its advocates or its opponents to express their views. The bill is favored by every rank in the two departments affected by it, and its advocates claim that it will not cost the city a single penny. Public sentiment is largely in favor of not only fair but liberal treatment of city employees, especially when their service is so exacting and hazardous as that of the firemen and policemen. The voters favor a living wage for these guardians against fire and disorder, with pensions and relief for those retired or disabled in the service. If their hours of duty can be limited to a normal working day of eight hours, without jeopardizing public interests or security of life and property, it should be done. The reduction of the hours of active duty should add to the efficiency of the men while on the job, by giving them sufficient leisure for rest and recreation with their families. There would always be reserved the power to summon the entire force for any emergency that might arise through wholesale disaster or disorder. A hearing should be given on the measure and action taken by the Board of Aldermen as soon as its practicability is assured. If it entails increased expense, as is very likely, the city will have to find funds to pay the cost. THE MERCURIAL MR. MENCKEN. In the current number of the American Mercury, Henry C. Mencken broke out in a new spot by avowing that he was not above believing that this republic, "emerging painfully from the age of Rotary, comes into a Coon Age." This designation, while lacking in elegance, was derived from the creole term barracoon, applied to the barracklike buildings where slaves were confined before the Civil War, according to a writer in the Mercury some months ago. The term was originally applied to colored Americans who were not confined to the barracks. Having held up to derision the Babbits and the Rotarians, the mercurial Mr. Mencken has turned the shafts of his brony upon the colored brother, whom he describes as "once so lowly but now bursts into the sunlight all along the line." In a flood of hyperbole, he invidiously proclaims that in New York City, he (the said colored brother) "has made such astounding progress, all witbin a few years, that he now ranks, socially, next after English actors, and elsewhere he has gone ahead almost as fast, relatively if not absolutely." Here is where the ambidextrous. Mr. Mencken twists the Lion's tail, of both British and African species. He jeeringly notes the diminishing of lynching in Alabama, the lessening of Ku Klux outrages and ventures to guess that these must be sad days for Dr. W. E. Burghart Dubois. He admits that the Jim Crow car survives in such sinks of barbarism as Mississippi, but asks what enlightened colored man goes to Mississippi save perhaps to get material for a comic article. In short, Mr. Mencken jumps through the hoops of rhetoric in his most mercurial manner. But his serious indictment of the influence of the African on American development seems to be based on the jazz movement in music and the dance, the inventions of black cooks in the culinary art and the adoption of gin as the popular beverage. This last count is hardly a substantial one, as the readiness with which such a synthetic compound as gin of the prohibition era can be produced by the average druggist or bootleger, would account for its universal acceptance. Language, social customs and religion are also cited by Mr. Mencken as showing the results of African influence. He quotes a Columbia professor as showing that the speech of the Southern whites and that of the Southern blacks is phonetically the same, and thus assumes that it is an Afraid, if not African, dialect. A Kittrell College professor noted this similarity and attributed it to the old English idioms absorbed by the African slaves and their descendants from the low class Southern whites. This professor even traced the derivation of many of the words to their English origin and instanced the paucity of African words adopted into American speech. As to cabarets and night clubs being essentially African in character there is room for controversy, but there may exist some slight ground for Mr. Mencken's assumption that "the proud Nordic Blond, pushing always, has pushed at last into colored society." But the editor of the Mercury should know that this is no new thing, as his native State, Maryland, a century or two ago, sought first to regulate by statute and then forbid the marriage of whites and blacks. But Mr. Mencken waxes malicious when he seeks to saddle upon an innocent and guileless race responsibility for "the Methodist-Baptist voODOo worship which now colors all American legislation and has declared a war of extermination upon the more urbane sects and creeds." He does a grave injustice to a great denomination when he asserts that "the greatest Christian country in the world is not only Methodist; it is A. M. E." The recent letter of Bishop Walls in The Age on Mr. Mencken's "portraits of the Negro ministry, and Dr. Moton's address before the Baptist convention are indications of the liberality and tolerance that pervade the Negro churches of America. As to the matter of social contact between the races resulting in intermarriage even that would be no new thing. It has happened before in all classes of our cosmopolitan society and probably will happen again. While differences of class, race, and religion do not always make for harmonious unions, love has a way of leaping barriers and disregarding consequences. If, as Mr. Mencken somewhat hazily predicts, "the heiress to one of the great New York fortunes will run off to Union Hill, N. J., and there marry a dark shiek from Harlem," there will be another front page story for the newspapers. The mercurial element in Mr. Mencken's composition leads him to write many things that are not so. Nevertheless, he is always, or nearly always, edifying and entertaining. MAYOR WALKER'S SLIP. When a report was published in an Italian daily newspaper last week, that mayor Walker, while in Rome had deed the dismissal of certain Negro spectors from a cabaret he was visiting, we were inclined to discredit the story as without foundation: Mayor Walker has always been credited with a sufficiency of good manners and good taste to prevent him making such a social blunder as to reflect upon the customs of his Italian posts. But a special cable to the New York World from Rome, purporting to be an amphatic denial of the story, only gave more damaging version. Quoting Anon Bragaglia, the owner of the theatre and night club in question, it gave his statement as follows: When a report was published in an Italian daily newspaper last week, that Mayor Walker, while in Rome had desired the dismissal of certain Negro spectators from a cabaret he was visiting, we were inclined to discredit the story as without foundation: Mayor Walker has always been credited with a sufficiency of good manners and good taste to prevent him making such a social blunder as to reflect upon the customs of his Italian hosts. But, a special cable to the New York World from Rome, purporting to be an emphatic denial of the story, only gave a more damaging version. Quoting Anton Bragaglia, the owner of the theatre and night club in question, it gave his statement as follows: "I'm glad to have the chance to state the facts. Mayor Walker, seeing two dark men dancing here, told me he was surprised I allowed them to dance with white women. I replied the reason was that I am a Catholic and the Catholic Church not only recognized black people as brethren in Christ but the Pope creates Negro Bishops. "But since Mayor Walker was in distinguished guest that evening, I asked the Brazilians in question not to dance. They were very indignant and explained they were not Negroes but Creoles, and, moreover, French citizens, although Brazilian born, and artists. They were members of a French troupe then residing in Rome, they said. "I told this to Mayor Walker and he accepted the explanation. I also asked a friend of mine to tell the Brazilians not to dance any more because I didn't want any fuss. They left off dancing. Mayor Walker did not leave my place before everything was over, and never even threatened to do so." Why Mayor Walker should have expressed surprise at what he saw in this woman night club, in view of what he was had the opportunity to see in the night clubs and cabarets of Harlem, is hard to determine. Such an expression might have been expected from a Georgia klan kleagle, but hardly from the amiable and sophisticated mayor of New York, whose urbanity and good taste are oldom lacking. If the incident was as reported in this so-called denial, the colored voters of Harlem who supported Walker at the polls, may wonder whether his lapse was owing to temporary exilaration due to the absence of summary restrictions.

QUESTION AND ANSWER. Under the heading of "Dr. Cadman's counsel." questions from readers of the new York Herald Tribune are answered Under the heading of "Dr. Cadman's Counsel," questions from readers of the New York Herald Tribune are answered by the Rev. Dr. S. Parks Cadman, president of the Federal Council of Churches of Christ of America. Among the many curious questions asked the learned doctor concerning religion, morals and personal conduct, which he_answers with unruffled serenity and orthodox sentiments, a letter dated Boston, Mass., printed one day last week, was of a peculiar character. It read: What in your opinion should the Negro race in this country do to raise its social and economic standing, and what organization affords the Negro race the best means of doing so? I am a Negro and I am well on in years, and by unremitting labor and good fortune have amassed a substantial amount of money. I have no relatives and I should be pleased to know what in your opinion would be the best disposition to make of my estate, when I pass on, to help my race. Accepting this letter as genuine it houses some speculation as to the character and surroundings of the writer. Any individual of the race who has reached years of discretion, with the mental and physical ability to amass a substantial sum of money, should also have acquired through personal experience some decided notions as to the best way to dispose of his estate. What manner of complex, actuated the writer to seek Dr. Cadman's counsel may not be hard to conceive but we think he could have one as well by consulting authorities in closer contact with racial needs and conditions. Dr. Cadman's reply to this ingenuous inquiry was not at all lacking in pertinence on the general subject of racial advancement, for he expressed his opinion, that "salvation of your race lies in its acquisition of Christian character and the education essential for self-support. This secures it self-respect and the approval of all right-minded citizens." He also was glad to know the time has come when colored men of means are looking forward to doing this sort of thing. It not only heartens the white race, but inspires them to give more liberally for the development of the colored race." For the specific disposition of the estate of his questioner Dr. Cadman recommended its division between the American Missionary Association, the missionanned by American Negroes for the Galangue tribe and Dr. Proctor's protected community church in Brooklyn, of course, it is by no means sure that the potential philanthropist will adopt Dr. Cadman's suggestion, but it seems a pity that his attention has not been called to such agencies for promoting the social and economic standing of the race as the Nation Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the National Urbart League and the National Negro Business League. Then a great deal might be done to help the cause along by promoting missionary efforts for the enlightenment of the whites in backward communities. The teaching of Christianity in those communities where lynching and logging are common practices, unpunishable law or public sentiment, would be a help to both races.

One of the bits of unfinished business at the annual meeting of the New York State Federation of Women's Clubs was the proposition to take over and maintain the Harriet Tubman Home at Au Burn. The property which is located in an excellent neighborhood is sadly in need of repairs which would cost considerable. It was understood that the A One of the bits of unfinished business at the annual meeting of the New York State Federation of Women's Clubs was the proposition to take over and maintain the Harriet Tubman Home at Auburn. The property which is located in an excellent neighborhood is sadly in need of repairs which would cost considerable. It was understood that the A.M. E. Zion Church, which undertook to preserve the Tubman Home as a memorial has found it too burdensome and is willing to relinquish its charge for the Women's Federation on certain conditions. A committee of the latter body was appointed to ascertain definitely the attitude of the church people and to formulate plans if the project was deemed feasible. While the last earthly home of Harriet Tubman was in Auburn the preservation of her memory should be a charge resting upon the whole race, not only in the State of New York but throughout the country. She was one of those heroic women who shouldered a musket and acted a man's part as scout and spy, during the Rebellion, as well as a woman's part in nursing the wounded. She bore her share of the anti-slavery agitation that preceded the call to arms. Her zeal and fortitude were inexhaustible. Such a character merits more than a local memorial without adequate support. In view of the growing value of the residence section of Auburn where this property is located, it has been suggested that it would be wiser to sell it and with the proceeds establish a home for girls in closer proximity to New York City, where its service would be greatest and where its claims would receive more substantial support. An institution of this kind would be a fitting memorial to Harriet Tubman, whose name it would bear and the nature of its work should enlist the united support of the women's clubs throughout the State. A recent survey touching on the subject of juvenile delinquency showed the crying need for an institution of this character. The Katie Ferguson Home in Harlem is doing good work in caring for unmarried mothers and undertaking their rehabilitation as useful members of society.

The British Labour Party when it was in power under the premiership of Ramsay McDonald, promulgated the drastic ordinances to suppress the aspirations of the political prisoners, and now they even think of offering their cooperation in getting for India her liberty!!! Oh heaven save us from our friends!!! Prescription For India Sir Michel O'Dwyer is no friend of India or Indians. Neither is he a genuine well-wisher of the Indian States, on whose relations to British India he animadverts in the current "Fortnightly Review". A perusal of the lugubrations of this ex-satrap of the Punjab produces the impression that he has a grouch against every progressive tendency, against Swarajya, against the Montague-Chelsford Reform of 1919, in fact against anything and everybody, including the "higher authorities." He is a protagonist of "string, impartial rule," such as he exhibited in the Punjab during the dark days of Jallianwala Bag and other atrocities. He is conscious, apparently, that his excesses have completely discredited him in the eye of even the bureaucrats on Olympus. There is a sardonic humor in his confession, made incidently. "The writer holds no brief for the Indian princes. Indeed his cordial personal relations with many of them ceased when his action in the Punjab troubles and his criticism of The John R.

ALICE ASSERSON the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association Misapplied Generosity "Give me a taste". A small girl of three asked her big brother of eight who was eating an ice cream cone. The boy was no more generous than the average boy of eight, but he loved his little sister. He would give her anything he had. So he Joaned her the cone he was eating, and she took several lick before she returned it. Sister's face was well smeared with ice cream when she had finished Her brother pulled out a soil handkerchief out of his pocket and wiped her face and mouth with it. Then overcome by the appeal of her babyhood, he kissed her on the lips, and went gaily away to play. His love and well meaning generosity had placed a number of dangers in his sisters way. The cone which he had been licking may have been covered with disease germs from his mouth. If he happened to be coming down with a contagious disease his sister would certainly be apt to catch it. The dirty handkerchief probably had a number of disease germs on it. If for example it happened to have germs which cause colds and dipiteria, the child was being exposed to those diseases unnecessarily. Brothers kiss was a sign of his love. But kissing on the lips is a dangerous habit. It would have been much better if he had expressed his love for his sister by hugging her, or by kissing on the cheek or back of her neck, not on the lips. Parents who give a little thought to the dangers of tasting food, which other people are eating, or kissing and of the exchange of handkerchief will want to teach their children not to do these things. Generosity children should be commended, but it should also be directed. the shape of reforms were believed to be viewed with disfavor by the higher authorities." "Disfavor" is a mild word to describe the effect produced by the shocking atrocities perpetrated by a regime that ran among the people of Punjab. Though "higher authorities" for the sake of their own prestige, screened his ruthless behaviour against public denunciation, there can be no doubt that in their heart of hearts they must have experienced a feeling of revulsion from the excesses that were committed by a prancing pro-Consul who all but shattered the dreams of Imperialists by his insolence. Labor Troubles The sudden stoppage of the workmen of the various industries and of the workmen of the Public Works Department in Madras shows signs of the class consciousness of the Indian workers. But to black mail them and prosecute the leaders seem to be the order of the day of the tyrants. Labor in Madras has been a little restive for some time past not without reason. But the Government instead of doing something to allay feelings and help the settlement of the disputes, seem to invite fresh troubles by seeking to prosecute Mr. Singaravelu, the most trusted labor leader in Madras. It is curious that the man charged with inciting workmen to violence is also the man helping most in amicably settling the four strikes in Madras. The proceeding against him is withdrawn; this does lend color to the suspicion openly expressed by labor that the Government contemplates a flank attack on it. If the labor situation gets suddenly worse, Government will have to thank them for it. Lord Sydenham—The Ubiquitous Lord Lord Sydenham never misses an opportunity of doing an ill turn to India. His favorite game has been to set up class against class, and if he does not succeed much in his mischief, it is because he is not taken seriously by anybody. In an article in "The Nineteenth Century" he quotes an anonymous American writer as having stated, with reference to an Indian prince, that he had heard one of the most wildly respected Nationalist leaders say: "As soon as the British have stepped out we will attend to these pampered swines." That a responsible Indian would The Nashville Globe published an article reflecting on the conditions alleged to exist in many of the two hundred Negro hospitals of the country, not more than thirty reaching the minimum requirements' of the American College of Surgeons. One of the exceptions noted was: That Hubbard hospital, operated in conjunction with Meharry Medical school, Nashville has been placed in Class A by the American Hospital association on a par with white hospitals, is shown in a report by the association telling of the relatively whetted conditions in those other Negro hospitals of the country. Because of the generally bad conditions found in Negro hospitals of the United States several years ago, according to the report, it seemed advisable to rate the Negro hospitals by different standards than required of the white hospitals. Hubbard hospital, however, made the plea that the same standard as for white hospitals be applied to it, and succeeded in recent years in getting sufficient funds through the General Education Board and from the Carnegie Foundation to enable it to secure an acceptable rating. It was expected that the conditions complained of would be remedied through such national organizations as the American Hospital Association, the American College of Surgeons and the American Medical Association, with the cooperation of the hospitals, and the community. The large appropriation made for Georgia State Industrial College by the legislature of that state elicited the following commendation from President Hubert, as reported in the Savannah Journal: "It is a great victory for Negro Education in Georgia. I believe that Georgia means to do the fair thing by the Negro. While the appropriation of $115,332.00 for the biennial is not all that the State College needs, it is certainly a long step forward. This institution has never received over $10,000 per year from the Legislature. The appropriaton for maintenance this year is an increase of 476 per cent over any appropriation in the past. "The most interesting thing and one that should not be forgotten is that Georgia's Legislature listened to pleas made for the college education for the Negro at state expense and appropriate every dollar for maintenance that the authorities requested. This was done despite the fact that the state finances in Georgia are in a critical condition. The sentiment in the legislature this year was very much in favor of giving the Negro a square deal in education." This indication of enlightened sentiment on education among the Geor- never use such vulgar language goes without saying. So long as Lord Sydenham quotes only an anonymous American writer, one need not attempt to discover his identity, if the writer exists at all outside somebody's imagination. But only a Lord Sydenham is capable of retelling such a story. It is crudely calculated to prejudice the Indian princes against Swarajists (Independents), in India. But fortunately they are sure to make allowance for anything coming from Lord Sydenham. Guilty Conscience. Mr Goswami, member of the legislative Assembly, who has been in communication with the Government of India regarding the proposed medical mission to China wires to Dr. Hardifar stating that Government considers the mission to be a political one. The guilty suspect the police even in their own shadows. Government may as well tell the public what reason they have to consider the mission to be a political. Is it because the Indian National Congress has initiated and is leading the mission? The Congress has never disguised its sympathy with the political aspirations of China. If it wanted to render political assistance to that country, it would have openly done so by revolting against the British Government either by open warfare or secret missions. But knowing its limitations and responsibilities here it deliberately preferred a purely humanitarian mission to discharge in some measure India's duty to her neighbor. Government's pretext to prevent even that little help to a fellow-victim of foreign aggression is only in keeping with the many subtle ways in which Britain is adding to China's difficulties. If the Government of India persists in their foolish suspicion, the people of India will help China in other ways by raising funds and remitting the amount or by secretly sending out persons even for political mission, but meanwhile that country and the whole world will see that the mighty British Government dare not allow Indians to lead even a medical corps to relieve the wounded and the dying in China.

Commenting on the reported invention of another machine that is expected to supplant the picking of cotton by hand, the Arkansas Survey of Little Rock sagely predicted that "It Won't Work." It said: Press reports say that the great McCormick Harvesting *Machinery* Co. has perfected a cotton picking machine that will pick all grades of growing cotton. Ordinarily that would be hailed as another triumph of man in labor saving devices. We think that if what has been said about this new invention is true, it should work a revolution in industrial conditions in the South, where the growing and marketing of cotton to the leading industry. But we are afraid that the machine will not get a fair chance in the South. There is one fatal defect in all such labor saving devices that are to be employed in the South and it is this—the degone thing won't trade at the commissary. Evidently the greatest profit in the marketing of the cotton crop is made by the storekeeper who furnishes the supplies for the tenant croppers and pickers, and who figure to keep them in debt after the crop is picked. Machine picking might interfere with this routine performance. According to the Savannah Tribune, the recently enacted racial integrity law in Georgia has run against a snag. It said: It is estimated that it will cost three hundred thousand dollars to put it into operation with no appropriation made for doing so. It has been decided not to enforce it at present. The Baltimore Sun has given it a sidehack that should cause its sponsors to hang their heads in shame. It says: Altogether, it is one of the most savage laws relating to marriage ever enacted. Yet, we are informed: "Such a measure is absolutely necessary in Georgia, according to its advocates, if white blood is to be kept pure." "We hear this with mild surprise. We had labored under the impression that white people in Georgia are opposed to marrying Negroes. We had no idea that savage laws are required to prevent them from doing so." The social erosion growing out of the same kind of legislation adopted in Virginia a year ago, should have been a danger warning to the Georgia law makers. Discriminatory legislation of this sort is bound to create havoc where least expected A Jacksonville tennis club having won the state championship, the Florida Sentinel devoted a leading editorial to "Tennis-Let's Play it." The Florida net fan said: The recent activities of the three tennis clubs of the cities of Jacksonville, West Palm Beach and Miami, respectively, in staging a successful tennis tournament acumen to indicate that our group is becoming more wide-awake to the possibilities offered by this magnificent game. Experts are agreed that tennis, more so than any other sport, brings up play every muscle of the body. It also keeps one in the open air and sunshine. It develops friendly yet keen rivalry; the greatest thing that could possibly happen. The local tennis club won the state championship last week down at West Palm Beach, which indicates that we have some of the best players that the state affords. The club is its infancy and unabettably would appreciate a larger membership. It is a worth-while movement and most assuredly merits your unsolicited support. In another column is noted the organization of a state tennis association, which is expected to popularize the game and give Florida outstanding rank in tennis circles. It is claimed that the Florida climate gives a peculiar advantage in developing tennis experts, with a tennis season of twelve consecutive months. Disputing the contention of the Atlanta Constitution, that settlers from the West or foreigners are needed to take up and till the waste lands of Georgia, the Atlanta Independent asserted: The Constitution should have told the Ohio editor that all the old vacant Negro cabins be saw in the rural districts were once filled with hard working, peaceful and honest field hands, who were driven from the South to the North by the terrorism of the lawless element of the poor whites—having nothing themselves, thought that Negro prosperity was responsible for their slitness and poverty. Schools were closed the Negro farmers and told hands—their churches and lodge rooms were burned; they were thrown into prison under mishitons contract laws for debt, and life was made so unsafe they could neither sleep at night nor work in the day. Neither westerners nor foreigners are coming to Georgia to take up our waste lands until Georgia treats her present laborers right. We are afraid that is the truth of the matter, although the index of a foreign element might give the native whites something else to hate inside the Negroes, as a student of Southern conditions close suggested. Saturday, October 1, 1927. THE NEW YORK AGE PAGE FIVE CHURCH ACTIVITIES IN GREATER NEW YORK Grace Congregational Ch. A neat bulletin of the program of the church for the day, news of the local parish for the week, and the things being done by the Congregational denomination in the mission field at home and abroad, is handed one at the inner door when he enters Grace Church. The atmosphere is decidedly honey. The service is quiet without being dead. There is a touch of modest culture one feet away. Last Sunday Rev. A. C. Qerner, the pastor, prescheduled on "Individualism in Religious Workers," from the words, "I live yet, not I—" and "I labored, yet not I." The texts were 1 Corinthians 15:10, also Galatians 2:20. The speaker began with a recital of Paul's experience in the art of self-knowledge and his conviction that a power not his own was responsible for the marvelous achievements accreted to him. The preacher said: There is a distinct: individuality in every man—he tells us in "Milk." He tells us with experience of causation—I am; then moves on to a sense of responsibility—I can; then goes on to the realization of concience—I ought. He said God recognizes individuality and illustrated it from the Bible and history and personal experience. Regeneration he defined as a new birth—and called it God's act, but it never destroys the personal or the individual bent of the man. God uses men with all their abilities to admonish his admonition to respect yourself—"I" and give. God the glory—"Yes not I." The invitation was accepted by Mrs. Gabrielle T. Darden, Mrs. Beatrice Goodwin Reid, Mr. and Mrs. Christopher Gordon, W. J. Patterson and Mrs. Ada Patterson, Mrs. Carrie Scheper and Mrs. Scheper and Mrs. Edith B. Delph. The pastor gave the right hand of fellowship. After the offering had been received, statements were made by Mr. Parks, trustee, and Mr. Sims, deacon. The bazaar committee explained the program through Mrs. Madelyn P. Henderson. The Church school and choir are modern and progressive. Next Sunday the pastor will preach the monthly communion sermon in the morning. At night the bazaar committee will present a musical program and will be served free, by a committee of which Mrs. L. M. Garner is chairman. A great program is scheduled for October 9 with a visiting clergyman for the evening service.

Church The regular Sunday morning service was attended by a throng that filled to overflow the main auditorium and balcony of the lunch. The Rew. R. M. Bolden, pastor of the First Emmanuel Church, brought the message. He stated with his text, Matthew 11.30 in which he preached a wonderful sermon that was greatly enlightened, one that will be remembered. In a moment, the Sunday school hold both in an interesting discussion of the lesson topic. preceded to class No. 2 of which Bro. Van Ramsaler is head. Rev. Vanderasea spoke from the 8th Psalm, 5th verse. 6.30 p. m., was C. E. hour and Miss Rhodes led the reading by reading one of the most beautiful, thoughtful and interesting papers ever heard in the E. George filled the pulpit and kept on the record of those who had preceded him during the day. From St. John 14:2, he preached a splendid sermon which should encourage all Christians to withstand the trials of this life and look forward to the future. Bethel under leadership of Dr. Spearman, is steadily moving on. Each service brings new additions and special blessings to us. The pastor, his good wife, and officers of the church, with the cooperation of the membership are doing a wonderful work for the spreading Christianity and the uplift of humanity in this branch of Methodism. The Rt. Rev. W. H. Heard, bishop of the First Episcopal District, who has returned from Europe, will be the speaker at 11:30 a.m. next Sunday. The music rendered by the choir was good all day.

Spearman, continues to improve. St. Paul Baptist Church The series of meetings held under auspices of the devotional group of the Missionary Circle were productive of great good, financially and spiritually. Each preacher brought a message that was peculiarly his own, and yet one note was sounded in every sermon preached—the church must hear from its pastor and follow his leadership. The B. Y. P. U., one of the mid-services held regularly in our church, was during these meetings merged in with them. Miss Marion Johnson, president of the B. Y. P. U., has been in the hospital for a slight operation, but was able to go home Monday, after having been at the institution since Wednesday of the week. Friday night there was an old-fashioned, prayer meeting, when members and visiting friends seemed to pour out their hearts in unusually fervent prayers. The sale of our church property down town, which is about consumed, necessitates the securing of property elsewhere for church purposes. The pastor, trustees, and other officials of the church have worked and planned night and day, and have worked out a most excellent plan for a modern house of worship, which will be built by the church, and then the details will be worked out by the architect and builder, and work begun as soon as it is possible to do so. Sunday was crowded with services from morning until night. The pastor and choir were on hand at the hour for service in the morning, and after the devotions, the pastor preached a short sermon on "Go's Challenge To His Church." The funeral of Mrs. Amy Daughtry, the pastor of A. Daughtry, was held from the church the pastor officiating, assisted by Rev Moses Thomas, at 1 p.m. The Sunday school held a brief session, followed at 4 p.m. by a service of the Men Usher Board, at which time the pastor spoke to them on "Playing The Man." At 8 p.m., the people were in their seats, and the choir rendered good service in song while the pastor preached on "Jesus In Contrary Winds." The quarterly rally took place, with all reports in, and the congregation singing the doxology at 9:30 p.m. Refuge Church of Christ Elder T. R. White filled the pulp morning and evening. In the morning his message was taken from 1st Peter 2:9, "But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, and holy nation, a precarious people; that ye should shew forth praises of Him who hath called him to darkness into His marvelous light." Elder White emphasized the priesthood of the believer in Christ. Until the law was given the head of every family was the family priest. When the law was proposed, the promise to perfect obedience was that Israel should be the king of kings priests; but Israel instead the law and God shut up the priestly office to the Aaronic family, even the tribe of Levi, thus constituting the typical priesthood. But when Christ died and the veil was rent, He opened the way into the Holiest of all, which is Himself, that every believer through the church hath a birthright into the priesthood of Christ, and become kings and priests unto God by Him. The evening service was good, Elder Wood formerly of Boston, Mass., preached, followed by bible readings, and the evening was taken from the gospel of St. Luke, 12th chapter, 2nd verse, "For there is nothing covered that shall not be revealed; neither did that shall not be covered; nor is there to be impressive, something that should remain in the minds of them that WHERE TO GO TO CHURCH profess christianity. That 'they may by the word of God escape the snare of the enemy, which he made to slander, backbite and lie on each other in secret: for the scripture hath said, it shall not be hld nor covered, but shall be made entirely for that day shall declare it. First Emmanuel Church At the 11 o'clock service Sunday many members and friends gathered to enjoy the morning service. Rev. Vandervoss of Bethel Church preached. from the 108th Psalm, 11 verses. from the 108th Psalm, 11 verses. was inspiring to the many who heard it. The following is the text and sermon delivered at Mother Bethel A. M. E. Church at 11 a.m., and further developed at the evening service at his own church, by Dr. Bolden. Dr. Bolden was called by Dr. Spearman to preach the ed-ience day sermon. "Come unto me, by my lath and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn of me, for I am meek and lowly in heart; and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy and my meek is light St. Matthew 11:28; 29. 30; the Universal Permanent Call to Students, to Attend the School of our Lord the Emmanuel." Pastor Bolden, in his message said: That our Lord Jesus Christ the Emanuel in carrying out His plan in human experience as an itinerant preacher-teacher, made a universal call that is the words of the text that encompasses all time he would be heard and answered by all people and educational value will come to those who enter and are in constant attendance in His school.

He understood better even than the master minds of His time the way the people were geared or yoked up to burdens and responsibilities whose weight embittered their thought, bruised their bodies, and crushed their spirit. He knew there was no relief for them except they yoked up and fellowshipped with Him, because the governmental, economic, and social systems perpetuated themselves through cruelty and exploitation. He knew also that sin that power-wicked wicked force affecting the life of humanity that knew not the love and power of God was everywhere present in the affairs of the people. He knew also that the educational concept of the self-esteem and largely dominated by the deceiver and wicked one, the devil, who was and is opposed to mankind's entrance into the Kingdom of God.

By His resurrection" infallible proofs were given of His divinity and power," Dr. Tyler also asserted that "God has us on trial just as He had His giving and when we prove worthy all spiritual power will be ours." The church's mission is to "savage men and women, that is to save those who are down and out." We must remember that as in pubs, we must be prepared to must christians study to be prepared for intellectual, growth, so must constantly study to be prepared for intellectual growth, so must constantly study to be prepared to obey His Commandments in order that they may grow spiritually. At the evening hour Dr. Tyler's text was Petea 3:18. His tope was "A Higher Necessary Growth." He raised the question, "In what way can these temples of Daughter Elks reduce their ideal?"

THE material contrast between the structures with which (Booker T. W. ashington) began and the present great, ample and commanding on plant useful machinery which for man to bring about. But satisfactory and encouraging as this is, it is but an imperfect-measure of Dr Washington's work and achievement. The education and annual turning out of two or three hundred youth, men and women for live useful machinery which form the basis of commandable and helpful work, but that was only one part of what he did and sought to do. His purpose was to sallust from a center like a juggler the light of the homely but helpless Helen which must form the basis of advance for his race, or for any race-WILLIAM HOWARD TAPT, Chief Justice United States Supreme Court.

Siloam Presbyterian Ch. The morning hour of worship at Siloam, Rev. George Shippen Stark pastor, took his text from Isaiah 43:22. In his discourse the pastor brought out the fact that the christian becomes weary of worship of God, sometimes due to reactions from labor on mind and flesh; sometimes we go to the zenith in our enthusiasm and joy and at other times we slump and go to the nadir. Whenever we depend upon human instinct we are disappointed, but if we depend upon God, we are never disappointed. God reads us night. He knows that we do our own faith. There is a deep faith. We have faith because God is necessary to our lives; faith is founded upon reason, we believe in God because we can't help it.

WHITE JUILLIARD GRADUATE SCHOOL OPENS FOURTH TERM ON OCTOBER 3, HAVING MADE RADICAL CHANGES DURING YEAR On Monday, October 3, the Juliillard Graduate School of the Juliillard Musical Foundation will open for its foughe year of activity; so far as enrollment of beneficiaries is concerned. There have been some radical changes in the executive and administrative personnel, the most outstanding, perhaps, being the elimination of Dr. Noble, who had not been working in entire harmony with other members of the board of directors, and whose methods had caused some criticism. It must be said for Dr. Noble, however, that it does not appear that he bore a prejudicial attitude toward any holder of a fellowship by reason of race or color, nor that he withheld from any pupil advantages enjoyed by others. Dr. John Erskine of Columbia University, distinguished author and musical dilettante, heads the committee of administration, with John M. Perry and Paul-Warburg as his associates, and Ernest Hutcheson, convert pianist of the first rank, is the new dean. Mr. Hutcheson also heads the staff of instructors in the planoforte department. An important development during the past year has been the absorption of the Institute of Musical Art, founded and directed by Dr. Frank Damrosch. The Institute, however, will retain its identity as an instruction unit, with Dr. Damrosch as dean, continuing its various departments of instruction, but with its scope greatly widened through the strengthening of the faculty and the widening of its possibilities through the removal of financial burdens, under which it has labored in the past. The operation of the Juliillard Musical Foundation is of particular interest to the young Negro student of music, whether of voice, instrument, composition, pedagogy, or any other phase of musical activity. Its fellowship awards are open only to students of American parental or foreigners who have taken out first citizenship papers. And its doors from the beginning have been open to qualified and worthy colored applicants. Three or more were awarded fellowships the first year, and at least two of this original number are retained as beneficiaries for the fourth successive year—the Misses Jessie Ernestine Covington of Houston Texas, and Lydia Elizabeth Mason of New York City—and there may be others. Each successive year has found others of the race capable of meeting the rigid tests to which applicants are subjected, and who are admitted to the rosters of various departments. The Daneschos Institute of Musical Art has long been recognized as offering unusual opportunity to music students without regard to race. Many outstanding artists of the race have studied at this institution, and its rating has always been of the highest. The merger with the Juliillard Foundation serves to remove all monetary worry from the directors' mind and will enable him to devote all of his energy and ability to raising the standard of its accomplishment. The fellowships awarded by/the Juillard Musical Foundation are nominally of a $1,000 valuation, but in reality they are of much greater value to the average beneficiary, both financially and artistically, as they afford opportunity for study under teachers into whose private studios they could hardly hope to win entrance, for the fees alone would be prohibitive. Some of the instructors on the planoforte, for instance, on the Juillard faculty charge $30 a lesson in their private tutoring. In the past, beneficiaries have been named without regard particularly to geographical location, with a result that New York City has had, perhaps, a larger proportion of students than other sections. The new committee of administration felicitus that the Foundation's benefits ought be more widely scattered and so it has been decided to grant the scholarships outside the City of New York, when possible. Examinations for this term were held last July in many cities, with final examinations in New York City during the week of September 19. The graduate school is limited to two hundred students, and the number of holdover fellowships will cause new awards to be comparatively few. The board and administrative committee are following the most liberal policy-possible under terms of the will of the late Mr. Juillard which established the Foundation. Dr Philip Gresley Clapp is director of the extension department and the Juillard Graduate School's faculty heads for the coming year are: Piano—Mr. Hutcheson, Rossina Lhevline, Mme. Olga Samaroff, Carl Friberg, James Friskin and Josef Lhevline, Singing—Mme. Marcella Sembrich, Anna E. Schoin-Rene, Paul Reimers and Francis Rogers. Violin and cello—Edouard Dethier, Paul Kochanski, Hans Letz and Felix Salmond. Composition—Rubin Goldmark. Aural theory—Franklin Robinson. Diction—Minna Saumelle. A council elected by the faculty will cooperate with the dean and the committee of management in directing the graduate school's property. The present council consists of Rubin Goldmark, chairman; Mr. Hutcheson, Paul Kochanski, Marcella Sembrich, Olga Samaroff, Felix Salmond and Hans Letz. Violin Scholarships Spending. Frazer, chairman of music scholarships committee for I. Bamberger & Co., Newark, N. J. announces that in addition to continuing two scholarships in piano instruction established last year, two new scholarships in violin instruction will be awarded this year. As with the piano scholarships, the awards will be in two classes—advanced and junior—open to students of both sexes, between the ages of ten and twenty-two years, residents of New Jersey, in Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Passaic, Bergen, Hudson, Union, Somerset, Middlesex, and Monmouth. Applicants must be enrolled on or before December 1, 1927; auditions will be held during January, 1928, to the public, and awards will be made by a committee of the students. Employers of the Bamberger & Co. stores are ineligible. Mr. Praser, from his office at 21 Commerce street, said that the scholarships were offered last year by the Bamberger firm in the hope of stimulating interest in musical life in the community, and the music committee, organized to carry out the plan has endured the plan fulfilling every expectation. Men from every profession in Newark music and professional life compose, the committees. Application, blanks will be furnished prospective applicants by Mr. Praser. 20 Commerce street, Newark, N. J. The committee announces that applicants for the scholarships will be required to play from memory two designated numbers and one of their own choice "in each class. A professional accompanist will be furnished for the one who will arrange, on one half hour rehearsal, or the contest may supply their own accompanist. In Class A, the violin contest must play the Gavotte in E. Major from Sonata. WL by Bech. and the First Movement from Mendelssoh's Concerto; the third number is optional. The Class B numbers are Air on G String by Bach and the First Movement from Beethoven's Sonata, with the third number optional. Contestants for the piano scholarships must play the following numbers Class A—Chronatell Fantasie, Bach, First Movement, Sonata, Op. 53, Beethoven and a Chopin composition as a third optional number. Class A—Include Bach (18 Little Includes and Fugues, Shirmer Library, Edition 424-No. 18) Bach; First Movement, Sonata, Op. 2, No. 1 Beethoven, and argy Mendelssohn composition as an optional third number. Incidentally, there is nothing in the announcement to indicate that racal or color lines will be drawn on the keyboard; Mendelssohn and talented young Jersey musicians are advised to ask for application blanks. Frank Harrison At Talladega College Frank Harrison, baritone, whose work on the concert stage has placed him in the front rank of American singers, is at Talladega College, Talladega, Ala., as a member of the music faculty, as assisting Turrentge Delrose, its head. He will be a distinct addition to the musical life of the southern institution.

ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS BY PERCIVAL OUTRAM Whether Allie Ross quit or was asked to resign his job at Comnie's Inn, Seventh Avenue and 131st street, where he had been the leader of the orchestra for over a year, he defied known to his wife, writing that the Allie is no longer directing the Revue or leading the orchestra. There seems to be conglomeration of facts, circumstances and inuendedoes in the mixup between the management, Allie, Huggle Davis, drummer (who opened on the band, with Allie), and Aubrey Walker, with Allie), and Aubrey Walker, audited for Davis when, be, Davis was recently sick in the hospital. After Davis came out of the hospital, the management expressed a job. Walker did not see is that way and Davis went back on the job. Ross then gave Davis the customary two-weeks notice and subsequently tried to withdraw it; Davis withdrew, claiming he had secured an job. Then Ross, gave the whole orchestra notice to quit. Allie left, but the balance of the original musicians were retained on the job, and the leadership given to Leroy Tibbs, pianist. It is alleged it was understood by the interested parties that Walker would get the position of drummer. But Davis did not answer that Walker did not want the job. No question was asked Walker. Tibbs hired another drummer. Friction seemed to have been rampant for sometime. Ross had been also conducting the show, "Africana," playing on Broadway, and the management—no arrangement having been made—reserved Allie's continued absence from Compton's inn. The Inn was made famous by the playing of Leroy Smith and his orchestra and we look forward to just another such aggregation to boast about and refer to with pride, and under the able leadership of Allie Ross, who undoubtedly knows his business, with a little more time the frustration of our hopes would surely have been realized. The Lafayette Theatre, for some time has been operating as a road show where paying guests are given to show the play there and allowing the shows to bring in their own orchestra. Subject to the above conditions, Mildred Franklin, violinist, who sometime back as, related in this column, was fired and barred from steady work in this theatre, hired an orchestra to play a show. On inspection, Sergent-at-Arms Minton discovered that two men were qualified to play this instrument. The orchestra played the show and were summoned on August 22 by Local B22 for infraction of the rules and were all fined. Their names and fines follow: Mildred Franklin, leader; Gilbert Paris and Tommy Morris, cornetts; Lucien Adams, trombone; John Howell, saxophone; John Sawyer, drums; Claude Curry, bass, $25 each. Sandy Bennett, pianist, and R D Chamberlins, organist, $50 each. The first group were fined for playing with men who had not deposited transfer cards, and the second group for not depositing transfer cards: "Fats" Waller, who had been playing the organ at the Lafayette Theatre, was paid a visit by his wife one time (tempest) when she was playing. "Fats" as he was playing. The management objected. Words. "Fats" quit then and there. Hopewell, Va. Hopewell, Va.-Mr. and 'Mrs. Williams motored up to blackstone. Roscoe Scott, and Rev.

BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU WARNS ALL PROSPECTIVE PIANO BUYERS OF FAKE ADVERTISING BY BIG PIANO COMPANY the $50 collected, according to the Business Bureau Bulletin's story, the salesman tried to sell the couple the Starkck piano priced at $1,000, coming down later to $740. In attempting to influence them, the salesman derided the $295 piano, saying it was 9% of inferior quality, within a year which would cost almost as much as the original price. They stood fast in their determination, and the next day wrote demanding delivery of the $295 piano on which they had paid $50 deposit. The salesman telephoned them to come down and select the rolls which were, to be given free with the instrument, but when they arrived at the store, they were told that it was the company really wanted the "agreement" before the instrument could be delivered. And at the same time he tried again to interest the couple in the higher priced piano. The "guarantee agreement," of which nothing had previously been said, provided a one year's guarantee on the piano, but obligated the buyers to pay for the rubber tubing SHOULD THE COMPANY DEEM IE NECESSARY, at $2.15 per tube, plus $45 for installation, a total of $24.20. This in addition to the $95, plus interest, provided in the original contract. Finally the piano was delivered to the Harlem home, and it turned out to be a REPOSSESSED "instrument" it is described in the trade or in plain words, a second hand instrument. And this was borne out when piano expert by request of the Better Business Bureau of New York ported, afterl listing the defects found that the piano had "hod considerable use." The Bureau declares that the experience of these two couples are the same as had been reported by numerous prospective customers reporting to local Better Business Bureau Bureau, and calls attention of the buying public to these occurrences. three weeks: The President's Council met at Miss Mary E.

National Better Business Bureau, Inc. in the Bulletin 11 issued September 15, the piano buying public is warned against methods being used by one of the piano selling companies advertising extensively in New York, with no other means to request the warning is directed specifically against the P. A. *Starck Piano Co.,* which maintains stores at 112 West 42d street, New York, and 15 Flatbush avenue, Brooklyn, with reference to advertise "Factory-To-Home Piano Sale" in which the Starck Co. offers $50 player piano outfits for $295. The Business Bureau cities two experiences by prospective customers one by two white employees of the Bureau and the other by a colored man and his wife, living in Harlem, in which the saleman of the piano their power to induce the would be customers to buy some other instrument than the one advertised at much higher prices. The white couple, after making a payment of $45, insisted on securing the $295. outfit, but after some five weeks without delivery returned to the store and demanded refund of their money. This was refused at first but conflued insistence got them the money. Colored Couple's Experience The colored man and his wife, visiting the 42nd store street, intending to buy the $295 instrument, as advertised, were offered other instruments ranging in price as high as $1,000, but they refused these offers. Their negotiations were carried over a considerable period, i. including a number of visits to the store, and each time the salesman tried to persuade them to take the higher priced instrument. Tey steadily refused. Finally, convinced of their determination to buy the $295 piano, the salesman drew up a contract, collecting $50 as a cash payment, but would not give the customers a duplicate contract, saying it would have to be sent from the Chicago office.

SCROGGINS AND SON. JOHN PHILIP About a year and a half ago, Delancey M. Scroggins and the then Miss Ethel Mario Jefferson decided that the happiness of each other depended up on their marrying. As a result of that decision, the first intuition of their marriage has been realized. This realization has come in the person of Baby John Philip Scroggins, who will be six months old to day—the first day of October, 1927. For a child of this age, Baby John Philip is a "Pippin", to use a colloquial, but otherwise understandable phrase. He weighs seventeen pounds and two ounces, and besides this admirable asset, has all the other adjuncts of a healthy child. He is one of those babies that men admire, and women adore. For instance, just look at the expression on his face in the picture. Babies as we all know, are without guilt. No pepteen to them. So posture is a thing they will not assume, even for mother. But here we see John Philip in an attitude of contemplation—a perfect pose of the perfect baby. Of course, John Philip is photographed in other poses, in some of which he is laughing, but this picture is the one which the column persuaded his father and mother to let us use. And just as the variations in the pictures, which were taken recently, are shown, so are the moods of this baby. One minute he looks at you with a serious consternance. His expression seems to say, well what do you think of me? And as your expression shows what that opinion is, he smiles one of those smiles that only a child can produce. The interest portrayed in Baby John Philip in this column is, perhaps, due to the fact that he is a progeny of the railroad fraternity. His father is a veteran of the Pullman service. His mother is a niece, and, up to the time of her marriage, was a ward of "Charlie" Smith, a retired veteran of the same service. Their happiness is a source of pleasure to the editor of this column. LADIES AUXILIARY OF PULLMAN PORTERS CLUB REVIVED When the Pullman Porters Athletic and Social Club was incorporated sixteen years ago, the incorporation included a ladies auxiliary as one of the features of its activities. And, to a large extent, it was due to the encouragement and support of the members of this body that much of the early success of this organization might be attributed. In recent years, however, the club's ladies auxiliary has been somewhat inactive; as a matter of fact, it has been dormant in the social life of the organization. But recently there has been a move to revive this former interest. On last Friday evening a meeting of the members of the ladies body was held at the club rooms, at which it was declared that those members would assume an active part in the social affairs of the club during the winter season. The first of these activities, which will be a dance and the serving of refreshments, will be held at the association's rooms. 105 West 136th street, on Friday evening, September 30. Admission will be free to the relatives and friends of the club's members. The officers and members of the auxiliary, are as follows: Mamedes J. M. Batte, president; Lucy Beach, vice president, R. N. Ashe, treasurer; Henlietta Pinkard, financial secretary, L. M. Clair, recording secretary; F. Brine, V. H. Hopkins, Barbara Love, D. Delaney, Lydia Walker, Laura R. Williams, May Jones and Josephine Jones. This column regrets the typographical error that was last week in the initials of Mr. O. G. Howell, undertaker and embalmer, of 2005 Madison Avenue. Inadvertently, in two instances, the initials were given as "O. D." and "O. P." instead of the correct form "O. G." We take this occasion to correct the error and express our regret.

Few men have had the high privilege in *situ* such a *unique* Beld as it has fallen. my *lot* to serve at, *nine* an institution as such an institution as, *Tuskegee Institute*. I consider it one of the great privileges of my life to have grown for nearly 20 years at *the* *university* he helped to *carry on* in the *great* work established, by that master servant, Booker, T. Washington. Many people have written about Tuskegee from the point of view of the visitor, or man from the outside. Some have had their say from the inside, but most of those have been people who were still in the traces. Now, that I am removed from the *center* of this grees work, is seems that while the thought is still fresh in my mind, it might be of interest for me to speak word about Tuskegee. "What is Tuskegee anyhow? What is there about the place and its people that he possessed about its respect it, and love it all over the civilized world?" We of ten have these questions asked in: Now that we stop to think seriously about it and try to put our fingers on paper, it is rather difficult to get to what we want to be true. Booker Washington Spirit. Undoubtedly the thing that is of primary importance at Tuskegee, in what I have termed the Booker Washington Spirit. 'What' is this thing which we call Booker Washington Spirit, 'some may ask: Is it that indelibleable that one knows is around him and becomes part of him if he remains long at Tuskegee. The 'spirit of courageousness, but at the same, time a bit of simplicity, the spirit of cleanness, the spirit of cooperation, whatever little friction may occur in their ganization, every student, every student, every student, every worker is loyal to 'Mother Tuskegee'. One feels this everywhere, on the ground. One of the additions to our faculty at Georgia State College is a graduate of Tuskegee and at Atlanta University. The first day she met Hubert, I believe the first thing for us to do would be to have the students clean the classroom. A little later, I found this young woman leader, her boys and girls in scrubbing the windows, washing curtains, arranging chairs and cleaning this from Tuskegee, and this is what I have called the Booker Washington Spirit. She 'was not ashamed to work. A college education means to her, the ability to see dirt easier, to know, how to, how to arrange furniture to art the room. All Tuskegee people get these things and other things to impress upon them 'at' Tuskegee that they go out to give as Dr. Washington gave that others serve may become impaired with their Tuskegee's influence becomes an 'ever widening circle. The late Mrs. Margaret Washington is responsible for much of this vitalized Booker Washington Spirit. She was "Tuskegee" in season an outfit of season. Her love for emphasis on the ideals of Dr. Washington have made much to keep alive the true Tuskegee spirit. Very few finer women ever lived than Mrs. Margaret Washington. Dr. Washington owed much of his success to her strenthus, unselfish support of his great ideals. The Spirit of Robert R. Moton. No one can come to Tuskegee without feeling the presence of Robert R. Moton, the principal, When Dr. Moton is away from Tuskegee, teachers and students feel his absence. There comes a firmer tread, a newer light in the faces of all, when they know that the principal is on the grounds. The principal loves the heart. The know of his bigness of heart, of his courage and faithfulness to the task for which Dr. Washington gave his life. Dr. Moton stands for success and love for his fellowman. There are no frills, just straight, forward. honest to goodness love for his brother. No love for his own people. No Moton, in his devotion to and love for his own people and his sympathetic understanding of other groups. He is fair and just! Everyone who knows him believes in film, in his honesty, fairness and sincerity. I have heard hundreds of students talk of the principal in the most because they believe in him and are willing to trust his leadership. It is this spirit of love for the other fellow, the spirit of fairness and justice to others as well as to self that helps to make Tuskegee the great center—a common meeting ground for those who would get a better understanding of others. It is this spirit that makes the Tuskegee man wherever he goes a symbol of love and of bet- Highest Prices; Dealers pay almost nothing.

Working hand in hand with Dr. Motors is Mr. Motos, a rare woman, a true helpmate to the man who occupies a position of possibly the greatest opportunity and responsibility in the world today. In the world today, Motos is the man who the years bring to the life of Dr. Motos and Tuskegee can only be appreciated by one who has had a glimpse of their home life, and the life of Tuskegee from the inside. Ability To Serve The Public Need. But. Tuskegee could not remain so long in the fore front if it did not serve in a very real way. The next thing that accounts most for Tuskegee's success is its. ability to somehow sense the need of the great images and apply itself to the most practical manner. It is really a GREAT INSPIRATION—men from every university matriculated into the. University of Tuskegee, having himbled its spirit. "Carry on," for the common cause. Everything and everybody is sublimated to the one great destiny of Tuskegee, the most unique way. Tuskegee has become a specia. for. men. of all races and nations. They come from every state. in the. Union, from Canada, the. Islands, of the Sea, Europe, Asia, Australia and Africa, wherever the two races meet, seeking the truth about almost every phase of the world's land and capital life. They away with a. keen appreciation of theft, responsibility, and obligation and opportunity and they carry with them. a broad spirit of sympathetic toleration and thus the little leaved planted in the marshes of Alabama is slowly but surely leavening the lump, bringing interest, understanding, understanding, pride and hate. light, joy and good will, and the dawn of the promised. brotherhood. of man.
