"Bub" Hewlett Fined $10 On Disorderly Conduct Charge
William "Bub" Hewlett, former head of the H. and H. Bonding Company and a well known sportsman in Harlem, reported last week to have jumped a bail of $500 on a charge of disorderly conduct, appear at the Height's Magistrate Court, the Height's Court, Tuesday, October 25, and received a fine of $10.
Through his attorney, Richard Cunningham, Mr. Hewlett explained to the court that the reason he did not appear to answer the last question had been directed to do, was because of a death in his family.
When he failed to show up, Magistrate Gottlieb ordered the bail, which had been furnished by Edwin Smalls, forfeited, and issued an order for Hewlett's arrest.
He was preferred by Patrolman Waterbury of the 16th Pecinct

Quincy, III.—The estate of the late George T. Morgan has sent a check for $242.90 to the N. A. A. C. P., New York, as a second payment on a bequest. The sum of $424 was paid to the association last year, making a total of $748.90 already accrued.
SEGREGATION IN WEST AND EAST IS KU KLUX PLAN
The recent high school segregation episode in Gary, Ill., with the white students apparently successful in their determination to force the group of colored students out of the Emerson High School, was inspired by the Ku Klux Klan, according to reports made to the N. A. A. C. P. by William Pickens, in Gary visiting the colored citizens in an organized effort to start a legal fight that will end the segregation attempt.
His report shows that the mill hands and the mill owners are united in the attempt to bar the Negro children from the high school.
That the Klan is engaged in an insidious propaganda to promote segregation of the races in all secrecy, reports from New England states, particularly Rhode Island, where reading colored men of Newport

SOUTH AFRICAN IS AMAZED AT NEGRO PROGRESS
Girls' Association Worker Tours South, Finds Much To Aid Work
Atlanta, Ga.—To a visitor from South Africa, the progress which American Negroes have made is amazing, almost beyond belief! was the statement of Miss A M E. Exley, head of the Girl Wayfairers Association of South Africa, after a visit of three days to this city, observing the educational and economic condition of colored people
"I am especially pleased," she said, "with the first response. Negroes are turning to the education opportunities which are afforded them in this country. Their progress in this line is most encouraging to those who are working among South African natives, as an assurance of native capacity when afforded a chance."
Miss Exley was most favorably impressed, also, with the economic progress which Negroes are making, expressing astonishment, find that they have successful banks and finance companies, and other highly developed business institutions.
"Most of our African natives," she said, "have as yet not even a knowledge of money, and of course no beginnings of such business enterprises as seem to be, common among the Negroes of America. I have been greatly pleased, also to see so few traces of interracial friction or antagonism contrary, it is most gratifying to observe that in which the two eyes seem to be working together harmoniously and for, the eatery welfare.
"I am glad I came South," she concluded "because what I have seen here will be most helpful to me when I get back to South Africa. I am afraid, however, that I shall find it difficult to make my friends believe the things I tell them."

DR. PERRY W. CHENEY SENTENCED TO SERVE FROM 18 MONTHS TO 3 YEARS; TAKEN TO SING SING LAST SATURDAY
Interest In Fred R. Moore's Campaign Being Shown By Many Who Are Giving Their Best Efforts To His Election
As Election Day approaches, it is evident that voters in the Harlem districts are becoming more and more interested in the outcome of the campaign, and there is an intensive, steady growth in the activity of the workers, particularly in the 19th A. D.
Dr. Perry W. Cheney, 200 West 135th street, who was convicted ten days ago, on a charge of felonious assault in the second degree, was given a sentence of from 16 to years in Sing Sing, by Judge Hilliard of the Court of Grand Sessions, Friday, October 21. Although a plea was made, for a suspended sentence by Cornelius McDougald, counsel for Dr. Cheney, and letters asking elemeny were sent by several physicians and other friends of the convicted man, the court felt that he should be punished. Following the passing of the senator, Dr. Cheney's friends announced that they had taken over the fight to free the doctor and would appeal the case. But despite their supposed efforts, he was taken from the Tombs Saturday and removed to. Sing Sing to begin the serving of his sentence

One of the evidences of this
growing sentiment is to be seen
in the fact that ministers of the

advising their congregations at
each service to work and vote for
the candidates, with special empha-
sion on the candidacy of Fred R.

Age for election, to the Board of
Aldermen from the 19th Aldermanic
District.
III. But Interested
The Rev. Dr. William W. Brown, pastor of Metropolitan Baptist Church, 128th street and Seventh avenue, although kept at home bybp illness, sent word to the acting pastor to speak morning and night to the people on the importance of working and voting for Fred R. Moore. At each service, the admonition was received with earnest attention. Their advice was given the congregations at various Sunday services of Abyssinia Baptist Church by the pastor, the Rev Dr. A. Clayton Powell, and the assistant pastor, the Rev. Willard Monroe. And at the John C. Price Lyeum, held at 4 p.m. on Sunday at Mother A. M. T. Zion Church, the Rev J W. Brown, pastor, a large audience heard speeches Assemblyman Abraham Grenhalt Fred R Moore and Michigan C. Brown. Mme. Lulu Robinson Jones presented. The people were given special instructions as to use the voting machines. The junior choir furnished music for the meeting.
Another striking demonstration is found in the number of volunteers who call at Mr. Moore's office in The New York Age building and offer their services in connection with promoting his candidacy during the reelection season. There is a daily stream of visitors of all classes, who are enthusiastic in their expressions of determination to support Mr. Moore and to win votes for his cause. Among the most interesting callers of recent days were two aged women, one 85 and the other 80 years of age, of whom earnestly assured, Mr. Moore of pleasure they experienced in having an opportunity to vote for him. Many first voters are pledging themselves to support both the 'AI
Dr. Cheney was convicted of stabbing John Torrey a taxicab driver at 8th avenue and 145th street on December 26 last. The stabbing followed an automobile accident in which the doctor's car injured Hyman. During the altercation which followed, Torrey was stabbed. Dr. Cheney alleged that Torrey and several other white men came to Pincus' assistance and that Torrey had a piece of pipe in his hand. The testimony failed to establish this fact. Dr. Cheney, who graduated from Howard University Medical School and was one of the first Negro internes at Bellevue Hospital, had been practicing in New York about 8 years. It is not definitely known whether his imprisonment will bar him from future practice in this state or not. It is reported that he has shown cause why his license should not be revoked when he is released.

A Discordant Voice
In the midst of this apparent harmony of utterance in support of Mr. Moore's candidacy, comes a report that the Rev. Mr. Givens, pastor of Mt Moriah Baptist Church in West 13th street, took occasion last Sunday morning to declare from the pulpit that he intended to vote the straight 'Tammy' Democrat. The church and its entire congregation would follow his example at the ballot box Tammy Hall officials are awakening to a realization of the fact that they have a fight on their hands in the 19th A D, and it is a persistent report that they are planning to use large sums of money in the district with the motto to influence the voters. But the voters, it is said, are resentful of the slide on part of Tammy Hall, the determination to show this resentment at the polls by rallying firmly to support of the Republican nominees.
135th St. Library To Observe "Book Week"
The first "Book Evening," at the 135th Street Library will be held Thursday, November 3. The speaker will be John Vandercook, author of "Tom-Tom."
"Book Week," nationally observed from November 13 to 19, will be celebrated at the library by special exhibits-of books which are suggested as Christmas gifts and by several book entertainments.
The children's room will be open every evening, not for book circulation, but for visits by children and their parents, teachers, etc., and the library will keep open house for all those who wish to get suggestions from its shelves or advice about reading or buying books. Information about book prices, publishers, etc., will be available.
All are given a special invitation to visit the library during Book Week, November 13 to 19.
The relations which should exist between physicians and druggists were outlined by Dr Wiley Wilson at the last meeting of the North Harlem Medical Association, held on Thursday, October 20. He pointed out that there was a tendency towards mutual disrespect and distrust among the members of both professions and particularly among the younger practitioners. Previous to practising as a physician, he had been a druggist and owner of a drug store for ten years. In the discussion which followed, it came out that there was a lack of dependability in regard to the drug stores in Harlem; many of the attendants were either, unlicensed or unqualified men who often made gross blunders to the detriment of both physician and patient; that many of the stores were more booth-lit joints and soda and candy shops their apothecary stores; that many druggists not only practised medicine and counter-prescribed, which was against the law, but they assumed the role of censor of the doctors, either praising or condemning some physician, and worst of all, diverting many a patient to some relative of theirs on the ground that he was a white supremacist.
The vigilance committee of the Association was advised to look into the matter. Dr Lucien Brown presided during the reading of the paper and the discussion.
Among those present were Drs. Best, Ellis Edwards, Granaday, Graves, R. Henderson, Howard, J. J. Jones, Petition, Anderson, Emblen, Andrews, F. T. Reid, McGhee, Powell, Rowland, Riley, Rose, Sealey, Armstrong, Mason, Cesteros, Pelham, Sidat Singh, R. Young, J. R. Randolph and McGill. Visitors were Drs. Lowry, Andre and J. Williams
RELATIVES SEEK TO BREAK WILL OF JERSEY MAN Wealthy Negro Left His Estate of $100,000 To Township
Mays Landing. N J. When John W. Underhill, who ran a store here during his lifetime, was buried two years ago, his will disdaind the fortune of $100,000, two-thirds of which was left to the Hamilton Town Committee for improvements to the town park and equipment of the school gymnasium.
But relatives, to whom he had left only $1,500 each, have filed exceptions to the will on the ground that the Committee is not a corporate body and cannot own or convey real estate, and that this invalidates the will.
Holding the estate had been held up by technicalities, and now the contest causes another seack to the hopes of the children for improved park and school facilities.
A half-brother, Edward Washington of Aurora, Ill., a half-sister, Ella Jenkins of Omaha, and three children of another half-sister, Edward, Wesley and Henrietta Rivers of White Cloud, Mich., are asking to have the will set aside. The township will endeavor to sustain the will.
When Mr. Underhill died he was given a public funeral the services being held in the court house here.

Hampton Institute Resumed Classes Tuesday, October 25, With Faculty Intact and Majority Students Back
Five-Men Students Dismissed For Good, 29 Suspended For 1927-28 Session, and 30 Are Placed On Temporary Ineligible List
Hampton Institute, Va.—With the resumption of classes on Tuesday morning, October 25, Hampton Institute took on again its busy bee hive appearance after its brief period of inaction following the student strike, started on October 8 and coming to a head on October 18, when more than nine hundred students went home after the Administrative Board ordered the school closed as a result of the student revolt.
More than three hundred students remained on the school grounds after the officials suspended school activities, and the number of applications received prior to the registration on Tuesday, indicated that of the nine hundred who went home, all will return with the exception of about 150.
The New York Age, that Drs. R. Nathaniel, Dett and Thomas W. Turner were in sympathy with and students and tendered resignations as a result of conflict with other members of the tangle over the strike. The reports are believed to be absolutely false by both Drs. Dett and Turner and by
Five Men Dismissed.
...Of this number, five men students have been dismissed, and these cannot return to Hampton at any time. Twenty-nine are suspended and thirty are on a temporary ineligible list. Eight women are included on the dismissal list, but are to be subjected to disciplinary action by the Administrative Board.
Suspended students are barred for the rest of the 1927-1928 session, but the thirty temporary ineligibles may be admitted later in the term. It is stated by Dr. Gregg that none of the students have been expelled as that would bar them from admission to any other school, and that only one of the football team was concerned in the Air official announcement gives the information that about 25 women students will not return, and sixty male students will not be allowed to return for the present. Others may be added to this number by reason of financial difficulties.
A False Report.
The school officials' have taken cognizance of reports alleged to have been circulated by striking students, and printed last week in
HAMPTON ALUMNI
SUPPORT OFFICIALS
(Telegram to The New York Age)
Hampton, Va. — A statement following a meeting of the Executive Committee of the Hampton Alumni Association, authorized by Charles H] Williams, chairman of the Alumni Visitation Committee Charles T. Rusell and Mrs Janie Porter Barber, all members of the committee, was issued Monday as follows:
"The Executive Committee of the Hampton Alumni Association met in a special session at Hampton Institute, October 21, 1922. This meeting, called by the chairman, Dr. W. F. Reid, was attended by alumni from different colleges and letters and telegrams were read from distant alumni who, on account of short notice, were unable to be present.
"After a five-hour session, in which the committee heard all aspects of the recent difficulty at Hampton Institute, it was decided to appoint the Administrative Board in the effort to maintain discipline at Hampton during the recent strike. The Visitation Committee, operating with the Executive Committee, will cooperate with the school in adjusting matters which it is hoped will be addressed on part of the administration and the student body—ALLEN B. DOGGETT, Jr., Publication "Secretary."
The New York Age, that Dr. R. Nathaniel, Dett and Thomas W. Turner were in sympathy with old students and had tendered resignations as a result of conflict with other members of the family over the strike. The reports are declared to be absolutely false by both Dr. Dett and Turner and by the Administrative Board. It is asserted that both men have been most loyal in their support of the administration in handling the strike and are continuing in their present activities.
DETT AND TURNER
DID NOT RESIGN
DURING STRIKE
Report As To Their Attitude In Hampton Strike
Was Erroneous
In the report of the strike of 90 students at Hampton Institute, in The Age last week, it was stated that Drs R Nathaniel Dett, head of the Department of Music, and Thomas W Turner, head of the Biology Department, had resigned from Hampton following a disgriefement with other members of the school. These two teachers were reported to have expressed sympathy for the strikers, and that this was represented by other members of the Administrative Board. This information was given The Age by a group of Hampton students who came directly to New York following the closing of the school. Because of its source it was accepted as the pal of Hampton, in New York on Thursday, October 20, and personally denied this part of the story, as did Dr. Dett, by telegram and Dr. Turner, in person on Friday. According to Dr. Turner, who called at The Age Office, the striking students sought no advice nor would they accept any from members. Drs Gregg and Dr. Turner stated that the school was fast recovering from the strike and that the situation would get back to normal within the next few weeks.

And so when Leaks was ar-

Mr Brothers told Judge Koenig

J NOT TO BE DRAFTED.
7 the latest political information from
the National Capital is to the effect that
Mr. Coolidge is not to be drafted into
jaccepting the Republican nomination for
the Presidency. That when he said he
Jid not choose to run, he meant exactly
what he said, and that he has seen no
keason to change his choice in the mat-
ter. Senator Fess of Ohio, who conf-
fdently predicted that Mr. Coolidge would
be drafted by the convention and accept
la’ renomination in response .to the call
of the party, was said to have been
fharply rebuked for his putting such an
interpretation upon the President's ut-
iterances. Mr. Coolidge’s reputation for
consistency is said to forbid any such
ititerpretation. .
This phase of the situation has encour-
aged the supporters of other candidates
‘reassert their claims as tall men in
je grove of Presidential timber. Form-
Sf Senator Calder of New York confi
dently proclaimed that Hughes, Hoover
ir Dawes can carry New. York State,
even if Governor Smith is nominated by
jhe Democrats. This sounds like over-
confidence on the part of the ex-Senator.
especially as to Mr. Hughes, who was
jever popular with the politicians” and
ias lost ground with the voters since he
me so near defeating President Wilson
for a second term,
F-Ifi.New York State wants to present
its strongest candidate for the Presiden-
ial nomination, it need go no further
fan Columbia University and take its
resident, Dr. Nicholas Murray; Butler
Who unlike Mr. Hughes, is not too old
fo run, although old enough to know and
iphold Republican traditions and the
jasic principles upon .which the party
vas founded. Here is an outstanding
epublican who has the courage of his
convictions upon all the questions before
voters of the country, evén including
rohibition. And he does not hesitate tu
press them, There is no equivocation
br straddling in his composition. No
fepublican in public life in this state
ould gite Governor Smith a harder bat
le for the electoral vote, of New York

It is time for the Républican leaders
take their courage in both hands anc

According to the Attorney General of
Jabama that state is a living example
ff. the inability of organized government
9 cope witlf the intimidation practiced
the Ku Klux Klan, Spurred on by.
fe reign of terror that exists in Cren-
idw county, the legal authorities se-
jred over one hundred indictments and
rty-five arrests on various flogging
tharges. ‘The witnesses who testified
fore the grand jury have been threat-
jed_and intimidated and in many in-
nces thrown out of employment.
This action by the white robed night
ders of the klan caused Attorney Gen-
Fal McCall, himself a member of the
ganization, to resign his membership
1 a letter to the Exalted Cyclops, pub-
hed in the New Yark Woéld, in which
p states that the klan in ‘Alabama is in
ie hands of a lawless leadership, He
ded that he was convinced, that it was
pt the purpose or intent of its leaders
paid the officers of the law to enforce
, where crimes are committed by the
finsmen. The leaders have intimidated
lawabiding members and attacked
je officials who are seeking t6 enforce
je. faws, Mir, McCall said that he re-
led his oath as an officer of the law
superior to any private or fraternal
figation. This is opposed to all the
ditions of the klan, and stamps Mr.
McCall as recreant to his Klan) obliga-
tions, Lo
Attorney General McCall was elected
Mst November on a klan ticket, as was
Governor Bibb Graves, who is'an ac:
knowledged klan patriarch, A report
was presented to the Governor of the
powerlessness of the Ixw to protect its
witnesses against the intimidation of the
klan. Some of these witnesses have fled
in tetror, while others whose homes had
been visited by masked men, had been
warned to leave. Several trials for flog-
ging in Jefferson county were postponed
until January, it appearing that a great
majority of the veniremen from whom a
jury would be chosen, were Ilansmen,
If anything more was needed to show
the menace of’ the klan to law and order
this situation in Alabama would show
it beyond question. So clear is the issue
that it forced the chief law officer of the
State to sever his connection with such
a lawless organization. The fact that the
joccupant of this office should himself be
a klansman ie sufficient evidence of the
Power that it has taken into its hands.
That Mr. McCall should revolt against
Jonger continuing as a member of such
an organization shows a saving sense of
fitness. .
What is to be done in the case of a
state like Alabama where organized gov-
ernment has broken down under the
weight of klan domination? Should the
Federal government be asked to.step in
and restore law and order, or will the
State eventually be able to re-establish
its sovereignty and enforce its laws
through its own courts and officials.
The problem that confronts Alabama is
one that threatens every state where in-
visible government by an irresponsible
Secret organization is suffered to usurp
the functions of the régularly constituted
authorities, unfit as they are in many
cases,
DUMB POLITICIANS.
An acute editorial writer in the New
York Herald Tribune, the standard bear-
er of orthodox Republicanism, recently un-
dertook to explain the divagations of
one of the recognized leaders from up-
state, by pronouncing him “Just Dumb.”
While we have no reason to considér the
politician referred to as any dumber than
most of his fellows, we are interested to
have it told on such good Republican
authority. Few Republican newspapers
have either the candor or the courage to
point out the quality of dumbness which
has characterized many of its leaders and
much of its policies, especially in New
York State. The brutal frankness with
which this individual case was treated
was a revival of the style of, personal
journalism which prevailed in the era of
Horace Greeley and Charles A. Dana.
We reproduce the article for its rarity in
these days of soft slush and apple sauce:
‘There 1s an amazing consistency inthe po-
Inical utterances of the Hon, Seymour Low-
"man, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury
| Whether as Lieutenant Governor he is at-
| tempting to lead this pany in his state or
whether, transferred to a Federal post, he
opens his mouth upon such diverse topics
as prohibition and the ‘ariff, the result is the
same He blunders, fumbles, trips and falls
on his ear To call him a “Eull in a china
shop,” as do the terder hearted Washington
correspondents, is to flatter grossly his acu:
amen and energy. In good upstate language,
he is just dumb, s
We think of only one aggument agains
Ius separation from his Washington job.
That is that the result would be hie returr
to the local political scene. But, after all,
so long as the Republican leaders of the
State of New York think that such men be.
Tong in public office, they will be able to find
them, whether Mr. Seymour Lowman ix re
tired or no.
While Mr. Lowman has had greater
opportunity to exhibit the qualities which
have brought the Republican party to
such low estate in New York, he is by
no means an exception.
It is the putting forward of such men
in appointive office and as candidates for
election that has contributed to bring
about a succesion of defeats and fill Re
publican voters with disgust, when they
view the lack of purpose or consistency)
in party policies. Sidestepping vital is.
sues and putting on a soft pedal when
questions involving human tights are
concerned ,will not get the party any:
where. Throwing mud at Governor
Smith will not convince doubtful voter:
that Republicans can do better.
Under the dumb policy pursued by Re:
publican leaders during recent campaigns
New York Republicans have’ lost twe
United States Senators, the Governor anc
other State officers, besides most of the
members of the legislature from New
York City. It 1s onlysthrough the un
equal apportionment of. the State whict
favors the country districts, that the leg
islature has not gone Democratic.
If the Republican party wants to re
gain its place as the dominant force in
state politics it must cease depending or
Presidential campaigns to carry throngl
its local candidates, It must ccase ex
alting dumbnese and mediocrity into th
limelight, where even friendly criticism
turns brutal. It’ must: take’:a decided
stand°on the vital questions of public
policy and human rights and live up to
its basic principles, :
A sad occasion of Mr. Lownian’s of
fending was when he flouted the New
York City Republicans as a negligible
quantity, because of repeated defeats of
their local candidates. He failed to rec-
ognize their exertions to bring out a vote
that would count for state officers und
thereby lessened his own chances of re-
election as Lieutenant Governor. His
latest addition to the discussion of pro-
hibition enforcement in the complacent
statement that booze hunters are dying
off fast from poison hooch, indicates cal-
lous indifference to human life. Even a
prohibition enforcement official should
feel it incumbent upon him to protect
booze hunters from the effects of their
own indiscretion by lessening the flood o}
poison hooch. Maybe the Herald ‘Trib-
une was not too harsh in its strictures
after all, although the class of such dumb
politicians is entirely too numerous for
the good of the party in New York and
throughout the country.
GINGER ALE PROHIBITED.
‘The metropolitan journals have been
considerably agitated over the refusal of
the Supreme Court to review the Chi-
cago night club cases, in which padlocks
were attached to the premises as punish-
ment for serving ginger ale, ice and
glasses to patrons who carried their own
It was contended that the serving of the
glasses, ice and ginger ale, into which
the guests poured intoxicating liquor,
constituted a violation of the Voistead
act ‘by the clubs and their préprietors.
Such a strict construction of the law
would probably put every night club in
New York out of business, if there were
sufficient padlocks,
The. whole business of attaching pad-
locks to premises where liquor is sold
has savored of a straining of the law,
and has generally been done by consent
to avoid the delay of a trial. But to en-
force this penalty, of doubtful legality at
best, where there is no proof of sale, is
going further than the law ever intended,
How jis the snooper who makes the com-
plaint going to prove that the hquid

es be legal, or would it only provoke a
row between the enforcement agent and
the guest? °
This latest attempt of the prohibition
authorities to regulate private drinking
is an example of the ridiculous side of
prohibition, There are so many more
effective measures that might be taken
to bring about real prohibition, that this
trifling with ginger ale high balls looks
like straining at a gnat while swallowing
the camel. For instance, the sale of pois:
‘on hooch still continues openly and braz:
enly in many -parts of Harlem, withon!
interference by the prohibition enforce
ment officers. Denatured alcohol is di
verted from industrial uses to furnish the
bootleggers with their base for manufac
uring hooch, Stills are sold and set uf
in garages and tenement houses withou!
permission and at the imminent dange!
of ‘causing fires and explosions. And ye
the law is strained to put a ban on gin
ger ate high balls.
The only effective way to start a rea
temperance movement would seem to be
to encourage the use of beverages tha’
are not in fact intoxicating. Far bette:
to amend the Volstead act so as to allow
the manufacture and sale of beer anc
wines, and at least lessen the resort t
stronger drink of poisonous quality.

The employment of stool pigeons by
the police authorities may be necessary
to obtain evidence, upon which to detect
and convict persons breaking the law,
but it can only be justified as a necessary
evil. ‘This practice has given rise to so
many cases of trumped up charges based
on manufactured evidence that the testi-
mony of stool pigeons, or informers,
should be regarded with great suspicion..
Especially is this true of charges brought
against women for prostitution, In too
many cases the unknown man is permit-
ted to disappear, and the woman is held
on an unsupported charge, which damag-
es her reputation even if she is finally
discharged for lack of evidence.
Too often these stool pigeons sent out
by: the police With city money to spend
in securing evidence of prostitution, in
default of uncovering a genuine case of
this kind, will spend the money to pro-
voke the commission of such offence in
‘order to make an arrest. In fact these
inforiners have been known to obtain en-
trance in respectable apartment houses
on some pretext or other, and endeavor
to hire a room and frame up the tencant

My Visit To The West Indies
£ By Mm J. W. BROWN .
Wife of the Pastor of Mother A. M. E, Zioti Church
While the effort of the po-
‘lice to suppress prostitution
is commendable, as an. effort
to preserve public decency,
the devices resorted to by the
stool ‘pigeons to make cases
creates another sort of danger
for unwary and unprotected
women, Evidénce so ob-
tained is very unreliable, as
the unscrupulous informer
will either provoke an offence
of the kind he is seeking or
frame up some woman who is
unwary enough to accept his
marked money for any other
purpose. .
While the police continue
to rely upon this method of se-
curing evidence, paid for out
of the city finds, no woman
On the twenty-second of Sep:
tember we sailed on the SS Dom-

and is manned by colored men, ex:

‘After nearly six days on a glassy
calm sea, among agreeable passen-

CHURCH ACTIVITIES IN GREATER NEW YORK
Salem M. E. Church
The second week of the anniversary celebration at Salem Church got under way Sunday when Dr. W. Miles, pastor of St. John's M. E. Church, Orange, N. J., preached morning and evening. The members have been putting in a full day each Sunday.
While the celebration" had called for much rejoicing for past evidences of divine manifestations, each preacher since the celebration commenced has stressed the significance of the great responsibility associated with such great blessings. On all hand and from many quarters, Dr. Cullen, the officials, and the membership are being felicitated for the accomplishments of the past three years in the present edifice and the quarter century. The Lyceum program at four clock was in two parts. Norman C. Walker presented some of his students in a vocal and instrumental retalta as the first part. The second part was a pageant, "The Gates Ajar," directed by Mrs. Martha Harper and portrayed by members of the senior choir.
Mrs. Iva Allen Beach was in charge of the Epworth League program. The choir of junior boys and girls treasured Mrs. Estie White several selections.
At the close of morning and evening services several persons came forward to join the church.
The week night services this week will include some of the more prominent pastors of the community: Thursday evening will be a change from regular order of services. Rudolph Grant will present one hundred especially trained children in a beautiful bird nascet.
St. Paul Bapt. Church
Miss Marion Johnson, president B.Y.P. U., after having had a slight operation on her wrist, was able to be out to the meeting and take full charge of it. The newly arranged special program was put under way by the designation of several young people to open the discussion on the coming Wednesday night. Friday night the prayer service was well attended, and the people prayed earnestly for their church's success in its present undertakings. Sunday morning our place was well filled with worshippers, and the people enjoyed the gospel as preached from the pulpit. The Sunday school took place after the morning service with most of attention given to the finishing touches of the concert to be given on Thursday night of the present week.
The evening found an unusually large number of persons present to worship. Emphasis has for some time past been placed by the pastor on worship. The people are taught to cultivate the spirit of worship in their services, and not to look upon one part of it to the exclusion of the other. Thus one entering our house of worship finds the people taking a very hearty part of the singing and prayers, a well as in the preaching.
We learn with regret of the
leaders of Morris, 257
West 122nd street
Union Baptist Church
Sunday school at 9 a. m. was well attended.
At 11 a. m. the message was delivered by the pastor, Dr. G. H. Sims. The sermon from the subject, "The Victorious Church, is inspiring. We are holding the meeting at 3 p. m. The B. Y. P. U. had an interesting session.
The closing message of the day was delivered by Dr Richard M. Bolden, pastor First Emmanuel Church. The assistant pastor, Rev. James R. Moore, preached at the Holy Trinity Baptist Church, Brooklyn, Dr. T. S. Harten, pastor.
Collection for day $440.93.
Refuge Church of Christ
The morning service was well attended. Elder T. H. White filled the pulpit.
In introducing his subject, Eld. White gave some encouraging and helpful remarks to the people of God, as touching the present day of nations, andPORTION confusion, and SERTIFICALLY, economically, and otherwise, Bidding the people of God to hold fast to the truth and he encouraged to breast the waves by the power of the Holy Ghost that dwells within, he preached from 2nd Peter 3:3.4, "Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scioffers, walking after their own hats, and saying, where the promise of life coming, for since the fall from the earth, continue as they were from the beginning of the creation."
The characteristic of this mockery seems to be that the men would professe themselves willing to accept all that was told them concerning Christ and His coming, if only they could have the evidence for it framed afresh with desire. But by reason of having their own lusts, they were not to disclose their true nature and sign of Christ's will. Some of their descendants are alive for there are those today who ride to the people of God because of the belief in the Bible and because of our looking for the second com- mary Christ; and say that we are here for our back numbers. But we have here the WORD of God for our com- mary we may with joy book-forward to that end.
The world looking for a new era, or another of things to take place here, is not good news and worse: And the only lies in the exegesis of the Coming Christ that shall make
a new heaven and a new earth, wherein dwelling righteousness. The evening service was the beginning of the missionary campaign. The message was given by Lientelc, who often tells taken from his gospel according to Matthew 26:38. "Then saith He unto them, my soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death; tarry ye here, and watch with me. And He went a little further." He emphasized, some very touching points on the sorrow of Jesus, and of His followers; and the sorrow of the world. The gain and good derived from the former; and the sorrow, pain and death from the latter.
Mother Zion Church
Last Sunday wek_observed an Church School Rally Day at Mother Zhon Church. A special sermon to the parents and teachers was preached by the pastor to a congregation that filled to capacity the auditorium. Dr. Brown preached upon the sijet, "the oung man Sa'i." He said part Rally-Day is the day for the bringing back of seated membership, a day to secure new scholars and teachers, a day to enthuse the school with new zeal and to solicit cooperation of parents. This is, to my mind, our greatest need. So many parents have turned over the moral and spiritual training of their children into other hands. Some seem to have lost all interest. Others tell us that they are not. You must take time. Neither the training can furnished by Church of State can take the place of the training of the home and around its fireside.
At the close of his discourse, nineteen persons united with the church. Junior Church services were conducted at 10:30 a.m. in the lecture room. The pastor was the speaker at this service. His 'subject was': "Why The Church and Church School Should Have a Rally Day?" The school convened at 2 o'clock. The J. The. Pr. Secretary opened at 4 o'clock. Speakers included Assemblerman Grenthal, Fred R. Moore and Michigan C. Brown. 8 p.m. special exercises by a departments of the Church school including the Cradle Roll. Among the visitors and friends were a number of out town folks, were Mrs. John G. Lee, Mrs. George Gibbs, Mrs. William Wallace, Mr. and Mrs. Peter Young of Rochester N. Y. F.

At the 11 o'clock service Sunday Pastor Bolden preached from the text: "Now the man out of whom the devils were departed boughs him that he might be with him with him, and with him saying, Return to thine own house, shew how great things God hath done unto thee. And he went his way and published throughout the whole city how great things Jesus had done unto him." St. Luke 8: 38. 39. Theme "Personal Testing Concerning Our Lord's Casting Out Devils and Changing a Man"
"Pastor Bolden said: Day he day I find growing upon me, both by reading and meditation, an increasing adoration for our Lord Jesus Christ the Father of us He flohes the most imminent Person upon

His presence in and with the Holy Ghost and His presence in the heart and mind of believers by the power of the Holy Spirit today, makes him the attractive, all-performing, supreme personality in the world, though unfortunate as that thought unfolded and their horizon expands in the universe. It should be the greatest privilege of those who live and act, being charged by His power and who have personal contact and know Him, to gladly seize the opportunity to testify of His love and what He has done for them.
Those who think perhaps that because they were simmers and that He descended from His glorious, benevolent heights; to help save and heal them, that they should give and heal them, that they should give to it at all, to tell Him His words and admiring Hear him get another idea from the scriptural text as to their chief duty. The context shows that our Lord Jesus the Emmanuel was in the midst of a busy period of His life among the peoples of Gallilee. Perhaps the day before, after he had met teaching among the people, he disciples and told them to take Him t othe other side of the lake. While there are wonderful lessons that can he drawn as to the storm upon the lake and the fear of the disciples as to their safety in the little boat, and as to our Lord's presence and power demonstrated upon this sea at this time, he thought want interested in the shore of the His.

interested Him, that was a funicite. This insane and wild man, incarnated with devils, was forced by circumstances to live among the rocks of the hills, the cemeteries, and among the swine or hogs. This was the asylum for him. And the man, and marked body showed him he had been treated both by his countrymen and the violent fits produced by his mental disease. When he saw Jesus our Lord the Emanuel, the man, naked and in great anguish, cried out and ell down before Him with a loud voice, saying, "What have I to do with the Jesus, that son of God, Most High I besech the terror to say, "What is his name," he said, "What is his name," he said, "Legion, because many devils were entered into him." Our Lord the Emmanuel commanded the evil force, the unclean spirits, the devils, to come out of the man. They besought Him not to send them into the deep, and He suffered them hearsenly, and He suffered them herd in fright and violently drown into the steep place in the lake and were choked.
When the hog feeders saw this they became frightened and went into the city and the country telling of the presence and power of the Man of Gallilee and the change that had come over the wild man and lunatic, and the damage that had been done to the herdsmen's hog business. When the delegation from the city and country districts waited upon our Lord Jesus the Emmanuel and said the results had been revealed, he commanded him to leave their country. In doing so the changed and grateful man desired and made an effort to follow our Lord, but our Lord the Emmaire, commanded him in the language of the text to return, to his own house (room, apartment, street,

Bridge St. A. M. E. Church
"We are still in a primitive stage of life when we only think of food to eat and rament to wear. We should strive to reach a higher stage, and that higher stage is satisfaction, which can only come when we develop our spiritual side and, follow God," said the pastor. Dr Tyler, during the course of his sermon at the morning hour. He was speaking on the topic, "Earthbound Satisfaction." The text was St John 4.13-14. Dr. Tyler emphasized the point that we live in temporalities, just as the woman at the well that is mentioned in the text. She was in search of water that only exists arttly, but she supplies the living water. We are constantly in search of happiness, and no matter how great our possessions or power, still the soul cries out for something else. That something only comes to those who have the joy of knowing that they are saved!
We who desire that complete satisfaction that Christ offers, must remember that we must meet certain conditions and that is we must cast aside all weight or obstructions that interfere with our serving Hunt. We must remember the church upon the conclusion of the sermon.
At the evening hour the Rev. J. T. Gaskill of the A. M. E. Zion Church delivered the message. He spoke on the subject "The Need of a More Even Balanced Training" Sunday afternoon October 10, the unpleasant of memorial to deceased members and members will take place. A special sermon will be de-

Siloam Presbyterian Ch.
The morning hour of worship at Siloam, Rev. George Shippen Stark, pastor, preached from Isaiah 40.29. In his discourse the pastor emphasized the need of a closer contact with God through Christ. God gave power to the faint, holds out hope we may be strong in us. We should know ours better. We should ask ourselves the question. Do we really trust in God today more than we did five years ago? How do we stand in the searching light of God? Have we daily conscious dependence upon God? The world without the church, of the living God would be a world of desolation and woe. How far have we drifted away from our early faith. It is a distressing thing for us to misguide ourselves. The worst deception is self-deception. To know the measure of our strength, to know there is us in need, we are strong when all goes well. We are not strong unless we have our trust in God; we can do nothing of ourselves. But in Christ we can do all things.

(From The New York World)
Art and business have joined hands in Harlem.
Or it might well be said that art is giving business a friendly hand, and vice versa.
The more Negroes have been counseled to give serious attention to the economic development of the community, the more articulate have become expressions of the race's artistic side.
There has been much visualizing of prospective banks, department stores and commodious hotels under Negro ownership and management; but to date such hopes and aspirations have failed to materialize. With one notable exception Negro Harlem has yet to express itself definitely in terms of big business.
Art Just Must Have Its Fling
But with art it has been different. It just must have its fling. Like the measles it breaks out with dramatic suddenness in different places and in different ways, and always making visible impress.

Bamboo Inn, made attractive done in a Negro blending of color orations display
Now for the first time in the history of the World's largest Negro centre a definite attempt is being made to link up business with art. Within a fortnight evidence of the existence of this new alliance has been strikingly given on three different 'occasions—the opening of the Dark Tower Tea Club, the Club Ebony and Bamboo Inn. Negro literature inspired the naming of the first two mentioned.
"A Lelia Walker, whose Villa Lewaro is one of the show places at Irvington-on-Hudson, has spent a goodly sum converting a part of the Walker Studio at No 108 West 136th street, into the Dark Tower Tea Club, so called as a compliment to a department of that name conducted in a Negro magazine.
"The Dark Tower Tea Club is not open to the general walker. In the words of A Lelia Walker, "It is dedicated to the aesthetes, that cultural group of the artistes, sculptors, painters, music artists, composers and their friends as a genteel of particular charm—a genteel of particular charm they may feel at home amid a pleasant, interesting atmosphere."
The artistic piece de resistance is the tea room. The color scheme is Chinese red, green and black. The furniture is ebony decorated with red. The dominant book is struck by the specially built bookcase emblematic of the establishment's name. All literature by and about Negroes is obtainable.
Next to the bookcase, the Baby Knabe piano invites attention. On the walls are painted poems written by members of the races. One is Langston Hughes's "The Weary Blues." Another is from Counter Cullen's Dark Tower department and reads:
We shall not always plant while others reap
The golden increment of bursting fruit.
Not always countenance, abject
and mute
That lesser men should hold their
brothers cheap;
brothers' cheep;
Not everlasting while others sleep
Shall we beguile their limbs with
mellow flute;
Not always bend to some more
subtle brute;
We were not made eternally to
weep.
The night whose sable breath relieves the stark White stars is no less lovely being dark.
And there are buds that cannot bloom at all
In light, but crumple, piteous, and fall;
So in the dark we bride the heart that bleeds,
And wait, and tend our agonizing seeds.
The Club Ebony was named for a department conducted by Miss Wendolyn Bennett. The effort to clothes it in an artistic dress is the

Football in Negro colleges this season has been disappointing to the average fan. From the records of previous seasons it was expected that it mightily attack and the great Tugueye eleven would win the championship in the East and South, and play for a national title in some eastern city. But from present indications it seems that Howard, Lincoln, Union and Hampton are far from their old form and the fans are showing comparatively little interest in their games.
Bluefield's Institute eleven, is the big surprise team of the East this season. The Howard fans are claiming that it was due to the strike, and that the Blue and White regulars did not play, that Howard was beaten by Bluefield's, but the West Virginia team has also beat the burgundy bunch from A and T College, and they are hard to beat. Wilberforce is going good this season, but I think the Bluefield's team is a bit better.
In the South I think this will be very good year, Tuskegee, though, handicapped by the loss of several line men, has already won three games, and looks to be a sure winner over the Lincoln Lions this Saturday in Philadelphia. Next to Tuskegee comes Morehouse, and we advise all football overs to watch Tuskegee and Morehouse. "Jobie" Bragg of Clark University is the South's are in deep pucking. Last season he made a 63

most ambitious ever attempted by Negro owners of a night club. Aaron Douglass, the Negro painter, whose illustrations and jackets for books published by some of the leading New York firms have occasioned favorable comment, was delegated to give the artistic touch to the Club Ebony.
The walls and ceilings vividly bespeak his artistry. He has created a distinctive Negro atmosphere. There are tropical settings of huge trees and flowers, figures of African tom-tom players and dancers, pictures of the American Negro with banjo and in cakewalk. On the main-panel silhouetted against a background of modern skyscrapers are the forms of contemporary race dancers and musicians. This effect is obtained with subdued tones of rich oranges, yellow, reds and blues.
Bamboo Inn, which has been made attractive to the eye, is not done in a Negro setting but its blending of colors and interior decorations display good taste. The artistic features make for a chummy and intimate atmosphere.
Young Negro artists express elation over the union formed in Harlem between art and business. They think the new movement will enrich American art and encourage the artist. Heretofore the tendency has been to take art but not the artist; to take what has been in the past—things no longer real but sterile—and connect them with contemporary life, they say.
They believe at last an opportunity has been afforded to show to the world that America can produce modern art and it is not necessary to turn to the Renaissance, the Greek and Colonial America, characterized by them as the "dead hand of the past"
As proof of the influence exerted by centuries old art on our artistic opinions of this day and time they point to the erection of the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, whose architecture is thirteenth century Gothic.
A strong flavor of American influence will play a big part in giving to American modern art in the opinion of Harlem artists, whose formula for a newer artistic mood is African art plus American Negro plus present-day American life "The American Negro is peculiarly situated," says Anson Klass, whose race is mistud of highly educated people who have lost a certain amount of primitive impulses, and who respond to very intense, exaggerated impression. The Negro has greater rhythm and flexibility than his white brother and in such an environment his artistic contributions are neither like the farm hand nor the man on Eith Avenue.
"While it is absurd to take African sculpture and literally transplant it and inject it into Negro American life, we can go to African life and get a certain amount of understanding, form and color and use this knowledge in development of an expression which interprets our life."
Douglass was born in Topeka, Kan, was awarded his bachelor of fine arts degree at the University of Nebraska in 1922, and later taught art in the Kansas City (Mo) Colored - High School Coming to New York in 1925, he studied under Winold Reiss. He has just been given a scholarship at the Barnes Foundation.
Art is making its presence felt in her Harlem business institutions. There is the Venetian Tea Room radiant in its symphony of green. But as to night clubs, while the Nest and Small's manifest some artistic pretenses, what a marked contrast between the lamented Barron Wilkins nocturnal retreat of days gone by and the Dark Tower Tea Club, the Club Ebony, and Bamboo Inn of the moment?

Colored Half-Back Star California-Oregon Game
Colored Half-Back Star California-Oregon Game
Portland, Ore.—Oregon's field generals failed to avail themselves of opportunities to score made possible by the brilliant playing of Bobby Robinson, colored half, back, in the recent Coast, conference game on Multnomah field, and the Californa Bears from Berkley, Cal., defeated Oregonians 16 to 0.
The only redeeming feature of the game on the part of the Oregonians was the performance of their colored star. Entering the game in the beginning of the second half the flashy colored half back dashed around left end for 40 yards to the California 25 yard line.
With his injured arm in a plaster cast, on the next play Robinson caught the kick off on his own 15-yard line and in a succession of sensational plays carried the ball to the Californa 3-yard line before the Bears stopped the freestest and fixtiest single handed enslaught ever seen here.
Battered and brushed the colored hero was taken out of the game and carried to the clubhouse, after Oregon failed to avail itself of its second opportunity to score.
Robinson, a student at the University of Oregon, is an e-Portland high school football star and performs equally as brilliant in every branch of athletics football, baseball basketball, track, tennis swimming and golf.

Va. Seminary Eleven Defeats Lincoln Lions
Municipal Stadium, Lynchburg, Va. Sweeping with the force of a cyclone, Capt Walker and his warriors, under supervision of Coach Hurt, hung up a score of 13-0 over the lungin Lions here. Friday, October, 21 Coach Morrison was once the coach of Coach Hurt which caused him to take the defeat seriously with his men. The crashing and ever long line plunge, the wide ground gaining, slashing tackle attacks, and the general superiority of the Dragons, put them in the lightheart as one of the best teams ever to represent Seminary.
The first quarter ended scoreless. In the second quarter the Dragons received the punt on her 30 yard line. The Seminary rooters yelled and exhorted their players to score. There was a feeling that a single point would win this game because of the rivalry that has existed between the two schools. To Lincoln these points would have meant more than victory. Constant ground gaining together with line plunges and sweeping runs placed the pigskin on Lincoln's 10 yard line. 2 passes completed and after a private conference, Davis shot an arrow pass to "Lightening" Fowler who faced behind the goal and snatched the sphere out of the air to make the first score of the day. The kick for the extra point was made good by Davis.
The second score came as the result of the clever running on the part of the backfield, and the many line crashes to a gain of 60 yards. Moore making the last 4 Hibbler, Lincoln QB sent a cold chill down the backs of the Seminary rooters when he picked up a fumbled ball behind his goal and ran 102 yards in vain. Lincoln presented a strong team and unloosed plays that only a well trained team could understand.
But the Dragons sifted through their interferences many times to down the runner before any ground was gained. Hibbler and Lamar played well for Lincoln, but there would be an injustice to the Seminary pack to speak of stars in any way other than every man starred Watson, dean of the backfield together with *Davis* thrilled the spectators with their end runs and line plunges Moore and Sedgwick bringing up the broken field together with thei-low and consistent hard plunges

Atlanta and Fisk Battle To 0-0 Tie
Atlanta, Ga—Those who saw the Atlanta University-Fisk game Friday, October 21, attended a battle royal from start to finish. Fisk came to wipe out the bad drubbing of last year, and Atlanta was a little too confident that she could repeat the dose. As a result Fisk did much the better playing during the first half.
In the second half Atlanta came back to extract the teeth of the bulldogs. The Atlanta line tightened up, and the Fisk wiggling back and passes were made ineffectual, but Thornhill almost gave the Atlanta crowd 'palpitation of the heart until Atlanta began aerial work also and made the longest pass of the game for thirty-seven yards.
Wiggins, Whedbee, Stanley, and McPherson for Atlanta and Thornhill, Hogue, and Willis shone for Fisk. The game ended on Fisk's twenty-yard line with A. U., having the ball and with the final score of 0 to 0.

Alhambra Theatre Shows Progress After 2 Months Under New Management
About two months ago a new group came into control of the Alhambra Theatre, at 126th street and Seventh avenue, which for years before had been famous as a vaudeville house where the management did not cater to colored people, although in a colored neighborhood. The new group took the house under a long lease and spent considerable money in refinishing it and in organizing a producng company for the production of musical comedies, revues, etc. with the idea of having all colored casts and presenting their shows primarily for colored patrons.
Their courage in undertaking this costly enterprise was based on the successful experience of some of the investors in the original Shuffle Along. Although they did not direct the direct management or control of this show, their financial interest in this play gave them a full realization of the talents and possibilities of colored factors.
The present management has thrown the house open for all elements of the Harlem population and since the colored people are in the majority they are especially welcome. White people are also at liberty to come and are doing so, in large numbers.
Not only are the casts all colored but likewise the musicians, the motion, picture operators, the ushers, cashiers and other employees. Everyone remarks upon the courtesy extended and the good order that prevails at the Alhambra under the new management Occasionally people come who do not know of the revolutionary change in the management and meet with a pleasant surprise when they are politely ushered to the best seats in the house

"The Drop Kick" a story typical of college life today, with the joys and tragedies, its thrills and its romance. It is it true to life in every way, and the football scenes are thrilling and realistic, as they were made by experienced gridiron heroes from the University of Southern California and Stanford.
Having mastered the boxing game for "The Patent Leather Kid," which he recently made, Bartheless now turns his attention to football for this picture, and again proves an adept at this branch of sport.

TALBERT BACK
FROM EUROPE
Studied For 2 Years and
Made Operatic Debut
In Cosenza, Italy
Mine Florence Cole Talbert, who had already established herself self-fully in America as a soprano or the first rank, reached New York on the lie de France on Tuesday, October 18, after two years and three months of study and singing, both in concert and opera, in Italy and France. Reports from Europe which preceded her return indicate that she has enhanced and broadened her splendid art equipment, and won distinguished acclaim from her foreign headers.
The idea of European study in operatic roles, it is said, was given to Mme. Talbert by an Italian baritone, Iusebio Concialdi, in Chicago, after she had sung duets with him on several occasions in that city. So, on July 18, 1925, she sailed on the Conte Rosso to join the summer class for Americans at Villa d'Este, a historic summer resort at Twoli, near Rome, where she studied with Mme. Delia Valeri and Vito Carnevale. Then after a year's work in Rome with Julian Iuzada, a Chilean, which included dramatic coaching, Mme. Talbert went to Milan and was coached by Sylvo Puccetti and Martina Bellini. Further operatic coaching was received in Paris from M. Marcel Piccheran of the Opera Comique, special attention being given to Verdi's "Aida" and Meyerbeer's "I'Afri-
With this ample preparation, the American singer was given her chance in opera at the Comuale Theatre, Cosenza, Italy, in March, 1027, when she made her debut in "Aida," making three successful appearances. She was supported by a company which included Luigi Marletta, tenor; Pina Minotti, contralto; Ugo Marturantão, baritone, with Maestro Antonio Gallo directing. The success achieved in these performances is shown by comment in the Italian papers, the Cosenza daily, Calabria Fascista,
said. The title role was taken by Sigorina Florence, Talbert in a praiseworthy manner. Her beautiful voice and expressive acting won her hearty praise from the large audience.
Other concert appearances included recitals in Rome and Paris, tistic breadth. Before the Sicilian Society, she sang "some Indian and Negro melodies which were greatly appreciated, and of another occasion" the 11 Messaggio, Rome, said. All of the artists did well, but the greatest success was won by Florence. Talbert in the areas from "Sigorina" and "Africaine" Her voice of velvety quality and dramatic expression was such as help the audience."
Perhaps the most unique of her Italian experiences was an invitation, which she accepted, to become a member of the Faseista Group of Lyric Artists by which she is reputed to be the first Neo Faseista. She was heartily received by the Italian artists Mme. Halbert is planning a brief American concert tour in which she will probably be heard by her people in all sections of the country after which she will return to Italy to fulfill a contract which she signed before leaving Rome with Sig. Vittore Delliliers for a number of operatic engagements.
She is at the Y W C. A., Emma Ranson "House, awaiting the return within a few days of her mother, who joined her in Europe, but who did not sail for home until October 21, after which she will put her western home and friends.

HARLEM'S BANDMASTER
Lieut. FRED W. SIMPSON Under where .Baton the Mi-Tee Monarch Band has become famous.
Distinguished Guests To Hear Mon'ch Band
Col. William Taylor and his staff of officers of the 369th Regiment, and Col. William J. Schieffelin, former commander of the old Fifteenth 'Infallry, are among the invited guests for the concert which Lieut. Fred W. Simpson's Monarch will give at Manhattan Casino on Friday night, November 4.
Other distinguished New Yorkers invited and who are expected to be among those present that night include Mayor James Walker, Mr. and Mrs. Murray Guggenheim, Park Commissioner Herrick, his secretary, John Hart, Fred R. Moore, George W. Harris, former Mayor John F. Hylan, Alderman Henri W. Shields.
J. Clifford Hawkins, Martin Healy, Edward Houlihan, Casper Holstein, Edward F. Goldman of Goldman's band; Philip J. Schneider, chairman of the Bronx Day celebration; the Rev. Dr. George Frazier Miller and Rev. Thos S. Harten, both of Brooklyn, and Phillip Bolzerheim, former City Chamberlain. The band is preparing to render an unusual program at the coming concert. It is the hope of Lieut. Simpson that his band may become the community band of Harlem. The men, although apart of Monarch Lodge, No. 45, I. B. P. O. E. o W., like to feel that their musical ability and their successes redound to the credit of the people of Harlem, rather to them as individuals.
Park Commissioner Herrick, who has signified his intention to accept the invitation extended him, said that of all the bands to play in Central Park during the last year of Mayor Hylan's administration, Monarch Band was requested back by more people than was any other band.
That Lieut. Fred W. Simpson should have moulded together an outfit of the kind that Monarch Band is today, occasions no surprise among those who know him. Born in Indianapolis of a family all noted for their musical ability, Simpson literally fought his way up to the top of the heap in the musical world by his trombone, the instrument which brought him more fame and fortune than any of the many musical instruments that he can play.
Having toured the entire country several times with more than one show, Simpson finally anchored in New York and here he has made a name that will be lasting, for no other band in the country has achieved the record for accomplishments that Monarch Band has to its credit. The organization of the band, through which the men' function in such perfect order, hopes that the public will express its approval of the band's work by crowding Manhattan Casino next Friday night.
MUSIC NOTES
Tuskegee's Famous Band Plays At Greensboro
---
Greensboro, N.C.-The Tuskegee Institute Band of 50 pieces played last night at the auditorium of the A. and T.-College and completely captivated the entire student body and faculty and the large group of visitors who had been attracted to the college campus for the evening program
As soon as the opening number, "Marche Slav", (Tschakowsky), had been rendered, the audience became aware that indulgence usually extended to student musicians need not be accorded the group from Tuskegee. The students showed a musical training of a superior character and rendered number after number of a difficult program, with an understanding and appreciation that would have done credit to a "band of professionals". This statement is all the more sloganeous, as was explained by their companion, Captain Dyer, that the members of the band devote only one hour a day, three times a week, to band rehearsals. However, the band is used for all military formations and for such other functions as the school may require.
There were selections from the "Bohenian Girl," exceedingly well played, and "Columbia Polka," with the cornet solo part taken by student Philharmon Hall, who received all of his musical education at Tuskegee, brought forth spontaneous applause.
A pleasing feature of the program was a bohrano solo, "Tes
Years (Rabby), sung by Miss Anola Miller, with Miss Emily L. Goins at the piano. Miss Miller has a clear soprano voice of wonderful range and sweetness. She rendered an encore no less effectively. The Glee Club, made up of members of the band, sang several selections with rare sweetness and charm.
During the intermission Captain Alvin J. Neely, the registrar of the school, spoke for a few minutes touching upon many phases of the work being done by the famous Alabama institution. He said that Dr. Robert R. Moton, Dr. Washington's successor, had been deserved as one of the world's greatest influencers and that his efforts in behalf of race relations was a great contribution to civilization.
"Prelude in C sharp Minor" by Rachmaninoff, was pleasingly done as well as the "closing number, Poet and Peasant."
The band is accompanying the thrice southern champions to Philadelphia to play in connection with the Lincoln-Tuskegee, football game, and will fill a series of concert engagements in that city. Captain Frank L. Drye, a veteran of the World War, and a graduate of the Conn Music School of Chicago, is conductor of the band.
The entire party left at midnight by special train for Philadelphia.
ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS
ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS
By PERCIVAL·OUTRAM
Jesse Young, leader of the Douglass Theatre orchestra, referred to a few weeks as "swinging the axe," by giving two men notice to quit, has found the axe acting like a boomerang, as Jesse himself was tendered last Sunday a two weeks notice to quit the management.
The orchestra had taken the question of a raise in salary to Local 802, and had been allowed $4 per week more; this raise was paid on Sunday, October 23, and then notices were handed to Jesse and all the men of the orchestra.
The original orchestra consisted of seven men, as stated before in this column; two men that Jesse fire had not been replaced, thus reducing the orchestra to five men. The trombone player's notice expires next Sunday and no one will be hired in his place. Thus, until the orchestra comes out as a whole, four men will have to cover the playing.
Can you imagine what the Violin, piano, bass and drums will sound like in a place seating 2,000 and with such poor accoustics?
Jesse has been leader of the orchestra for about eight weeks. It is alleged that some of the very men who had interceded with the manager and were instrumental in getting the job for him, were the trombone notice to quit. Thus puzzled the manager of it is said the taxed Jesse on the subject. One of these men has worked in the house three years, left, and was rehired by the consent of the manager before Jesse came in as leader.
A member of the orchestra was heard to say that Jesse had intended to get all new men on the job—in fact, called the names of the men supposed to be slated by Jesse for the pit. When Jesse got the job he knew several violinists had been rejected as leaders because they wanted to bring in their own orchestras.
Business is not so flourishing among colored musicians as to allow them to be reckless and indifferent to their interests and to the jeopardy they may place their leader by being devoid of the ordinary courtesies of life. So it is with regret and consternation we have to record that a cornet player should elect not to show up on his steady engagement, should fail to send a substitute, afd on entering to play the last session, when questioned by the manager, respond with: "I had a job that paid me $25 and did not want to lose it. I'm leaving here tonight, anyway, but you did not hire me; what have you to do with it?" "Is that so?" snapped the manager. "Don't go inside; you come into the office and get your money." This cornet player was on the last day of his notice, but was wise or necessary or even good business to antagonize further when he knew he was wrong?
Cumbo, the cellist, who has worked at the Odeon for over a year, has been released. Local 802 allowed the men a raise of $1, but Cumbo never received any benefit from it, his time terminating the week previous to the raise. This leaves piano, violin and drums at the Odeon.
Here is a thought, men. The annual election of local 802 takes place this year on December 21. Nominations must be filed on or before December 1. Nomination blanks will be ready after November 1. Think and look around, if there is any colored member you would like to see nominated and voted for—say on the Trial Board. Have you ever voted? Ask the next musician you know whether he has ever voted? Why not? You receive blanks; you know when and, where the election is, Read again the first of this paragraph Sound the toosin. Too late this year? All right, if you think so, but be prepared for 1928.

THEATRICAL JOTTINGS
BY BOB BLATER
Moss and Frye, the champion laugh getters, and one of Keith-Albez's big time acts, has been engaged as a special feature this week at the Lincoln Theatre, New York City. The following is what J. W. R. of The Billboard had to say about this great colored acts?
MOSS AND FRYE
Reviewed Monday matinee, October 10, at the Palace Theater, New York. Style—Comedy chatter and singing. Setting—In two. Time—Fifteen Minutes.
Moss and Frye occupy a unique place in wauvillee because of their quaint and personal funmaking. There is something more than buffoonery behind their nonsensical questions and answers. The present list of Frye's who, whats, whys and whens is in line with his famous poser of a season or two ago. "How high is up?" His new stock of gags and absurd queries is still able to confuse Moss, and the audience has no alternative but to enter into the spirit of Frye's outrageous philosophy. Frye's portrayal of the "wise" colored chap who believes his system of reasoning is just as reliable as the more sophisticated Moss's is ribtickling. He does not force his fun; it simply oozes out and the audience revels' in his nonsense. Moss is a capable feeder and enables Frye to get every laugh over. A pleasing interude in their laugh-creating routine, they offer some soft harmony and this is not the least important part of their act. Their melody is good and in two numbers, Smile a Little Bit and Somewhere in Hawaii, they scored a big hand for this diversion Frye's comical postures and inclination to lose his equilibrium bring a host of laughs.
All in all, Moss and Frye are a couple of funmakers who stand alone in a line of quaintness and absurdity. They fully deserved their big success at this performance.

Made of Substantial Craft (Not Tissue Paper)
The Vogue for Velvet
So completely have these two fabrics captured the fashionable heart that to be without one frock of each, at the very least, is almost committing sartorial suicide. To prevent any such dire calamity, we have designed two perfectly charming life-savers in the form of afternoon frocks Style 1248 and Style 1253. Either one, as you see, is adaptable to both fabrics and both make use of clever lines to bring out the contrasting surfaces of the material. Before we forget, the new woolens are also important this season. Here they are—in printed jersey for a morning frock (Style 1257), in a mixed weave for the school frock (Style 1265), and in a heavy winter weight for the kiddy coat (Style 1245).
No. 1244. Kiddy Party Frock of silk crepe, georgette or sheer velvet, edged with Bands of Beige lace. Size 4 requires 2 yards of 40 inch material. 3 yards of lace
Patterns will be delivered to mention size wanted. Address. Street, New York City.
Ronald Colman plays the title role, that of Michael or "Beau," the eldest of the three young brother English aristocrats who sacrifice all for each other. Neil Hamilton is the second brother, "Digby," and Ralph Forbes, playing his first screen role in America, the youngest, "John."
Alice, Joyce, one of the screen's most beautiful women, and Mary Brian, are the two—and the only two—principal feminine players.
Noah Beery was assigned to what critics declare to be one of the finest character roles in the history of motion pictures, that of the brave, brutal sergeant of the French Foreign Legion with whom the three brothers go to the Sahara Desert to appear in one of the strangest, most dramatic and tragic of real life exploits.
Of scarcely less importance are the roles played by Norman Trevor, a major in the Legion, and William Powell, George Rigas, Victor McLaglan, Bernard Seigel and Donald Stuart as enlisted men.
Four of the most important child screen parts of the year are enacted by Maurice Murphy, Philippe de Lacy and Micky McBan, who portray the three brothers in an early sequence, and Betsy Ann Hisle, appearing as Mary Brian.
Herbert Brenon directed this huge production for Paramount at an encampment of 2000 men on the desert, southwest of Yuma, Arizona.
Major Percival Christopher Wren is the author of "Beau Geste." John Russell and Herbert Brenon adapted it for screen use and Paul Schofield wrote the continuity.

N. C. Aggies Defeat North Carolina College
N. C. Aggies Defeat North Carolina College
Greenboro, N. C—Local gridiron fans were given a thrill here Thursday; October 20, when the A and T eleven scored a 28-13 victory over the N. C. College eveled of Durham. The local team unleashed a powerful offensive at the very beginning of the game and it looked as though the Durham team was in for a severe drubbing. But the visitors settled down after the first quarter and made the contest a real thriller. The most sensational play of the game was when Grimes of Durham intercepted a forward pass and ran 67 yards for a touchdown. The other touchdown by North Carolina State College came as result of another pretty play. Williams, Durham's left end, hid himself near the sideline and took a pass from Austin over the goal line.
All of A and T's touchdowns were made on straight line plays with Coleman, Wilson and Henderson leading the attack. Streater A and W's right end, played a bang up game. Lane and Miller proved towers of strength in the line. Strowd, Grimes and Long were the big guns for the Durham team.

Defines Judicial Quality
At a recent meeting of the Club-
men’s Beneficial League at 252 West
138th stecet Michigan C. Brown,
deputy clerk of the 7th Distria Mu-
nicipal Court, introduced Justice ’S.
Clinton Crane, Republican, candidate
for reelection. itt the following
words. :
‘A judge, to command respect and
obedience to lave, must live “above the
lauds in. public virtue and in private
thinking”. He smust be guilty of no
cobduct that may bring fi question
his impartiality, his justice, and his
truthiziness.” He: must occupy no
doubtful position by absuming a par
tisan attitude in the civic and public
movements of His district, that, may
be brought before him for adjudi
cation. A
He occupies his position fora. nana
er of years, unlike the executive o
legislator, who, for a breach of faith
to his constituents may be brought tc
Jacdount at the next election. Serious
distrust of a Judge as to his inte:
rity or his politi! bias ray there:
fore last for years and be avigiout
remedy.
‘A faithfel executive or disloyal
legiskator may cause temporary
trouble, but the refedy is in,the hands
Jot tke people at the polls, while th
public distrust of a Judge which may
fast for years, growing year by year
tends to breale down the most esen
tial instrumentality erected by. the
[Gonstitution of our country to pre:
serve the liberty, the property, ané
the civil rights of the people.
Chief Justice Marshal of the Su
Ipreme Court beuch, Washington, D
C.uttered these memorable words
which have become part of the lega
‘education of every lawyer:
“The greatest scourge an angr
Heaven ever inflicted upon an un
‘grateful and a sinning peaple was 1
ignorant, a corrupt or a, dependati
