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 N. A. A. C. P. Receives $748 From Estate of Quincy, Ill., Man Quincy, III.—The estate of the late George T.

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 segregation in the local schools. Similar attempts are reported from New Jersey and Massachusetts 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." GIVE TO Y. W. C. A. The Y. W. C. A. Drive for its Budget Deficit opened Wednesday, October 26.

DONT PASS THEM BY (Signed) FRED R. MOORE 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 Interest In Fred R. Being Shown By Mr. Their Best Effort Daily Stream of Volunt Work and Vote For S Ticket In 19th A As Election Day app voters in the Harlem dist and more interested in the and there is an intensive, tivity of the workers, part One of the evidences of this growing sentiment is to be seen in the fact that ministers of the leading churches of Harlem are advising their congregations at each service to work and vote for the candidates, with special empha- sion on the candidacy of Fred R. Gore, editor of The New York 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. Moore's Campaign many Who Are Giving us To His Election Peer Workers Pledge To success of Republican Aldermanic District roaches, it is evident thaticts are becoming more outcome of the campaign, steady growth in the acicularly in the 19th A. D. aldermanic candidate and Assemblyman Abraham Grenthal, Republican candidate for re-election. 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. Woman Claims Negro Burglar Shot Her Toms River, N. I.—Miss Margaret Nettet, 27, white, a boarder at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Currell Wilbur on Ridgeway road, near Lakelurst, was shot and seriously wounded Thursday, night by a burglar entered the house and took $40. Miss Nettet was taken to the Paul Kumhall Hospital in Lakewood where it was said the bullet had entered her neck and lodged in her left arm. She told police that the hurglar was a Negro, a trail but the animal offered lowing the scent to Lakewood life is there. The Troopers, however, declared that they had one suspect under surveillance. Evening School 90, Manhattan This school now has 14 new sewing machines and expects more this week. We are now equipped to do all kinds of sewing. Students may make new garments or remodel old ones. The dressmaking and millinery classes offer the women of this community an opportunity to make their winter clothes and hats at a small cost. All the women need to do is to furnish the material and give up two hours on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday to teach flower making and lamp shade making. In fact, nearly everything connected with homemaking is taught in these classes. Open School Week The school week of November 8, 10, 11 is Open School Week. Wonder how many parents kept Open School Week, last year? I venture to say that a great many parents did keep it, and also a still larger number failed to keep it. Do you realize dear parents, that Open School Week is filled by the Board of Education in order to give the parents an opportunity to visit the schools and see just exactly what work is being done in them? For example, if your son is in 4B and if your daughter is in the kindergarten, it usually going to that class and seeing just exactly what your child learns. During Open School Week there is no attempt on the part of the school to have either celebrations or irregular work. The teaching carried on during that week is not unusual. The object of this week is to allow, parents to see what is taught and how it is done. The parents may see just exactly what methods are employed, how they bring in learning, how partnership and phonic drills are given, how visual aids are employed in the teaching of geography and history, and, in short, the parent can see just exactly what methods are being used to teach her child. In the elementary schools they may also see the organized recesses which give the children proper physical training exercises and which also teach the children all kinds of games. They may also see your children playing on the street have been taught to your children during these organized recesses. Go to the school where your children attend, go into the classroom where your child is and makes the social demands of your children telephone and try and let her see that you appreciate what she is doing your child and let her feel that you are her friend. A teacher is always made much happier when the parents of the children show you the many things not on the school playground the teacher does for the children. In the junior high school, visit How Parents Can Help Children In 1-B GERTRUDE E. MCDOUGALD If the parent of the 1B child has properly taught him along the lines laid down in last weeks suggestions, the child is free from fear and is developing a growing respect for authority. A new problem in self-control often presents here just when the parent feels safe in the school. Starting her child in school was a big problem and she is grateful that it is past, when suddenly the 7 year old is reported by his teacher for outbursts of temper, willful obedience and general disorder. The 7 year old child has reached a new stage in his development. He will pass through several more trying periods, just now, he resents being told what to do; he feels his new found individuality. He looks back upon his term in the 1A class and is found calling after those children—"I A baby". Since the child has never given any trouble before, many parents jump to the conclusion that the child is wholly innocent of disturbing the school with his friends and resort to the accustomation that must have done something to him. I never knew him at be like this." Understanding more about child nature, the parent will apply firm kindness, just as the teacher is expected to do. The parent can find many ways at home of encouraging the child-to think less and less of himself and more of others. He practices this with his brothers and sister, and will learn to regard the welfare of his class as a whole as something to which he must contribute. His own feeling, wishes. We Need $7,500 FOR OUR GIRLS! ANNUAL BUDGET CAMPAIGN October 26th—November 4th WEST 137th STREET BRANCH, Y. W. C. A. 179 WEST 137th STREET WON'T YOU GIVE? A class to prepare for civil service examinations will be organized as soon as enough students register for it.

Those who wish to become United States, citizens may make out their application blanks here. The work in the common branch classes will prepare such applicants to pass the citizenship tests, work of the school, and be Open School Week, and the friends of the school are invited to visit them and see the kind of work done. different types of classes. "Even if your child is not yet in junior high school, go to the junior high school in your neighborhood. "Visit the different types of classes and familiarize yourself with exactly what kind of education is being given in each class. Then, when it becomes time for your child to choose which course to take, you will have an intelligent experience which helps to help you choose which kind of parents sometimes get the impression that in junior high school their children are not learning exactly the things that the ywish them to learn. The reason for this is that parents have no intelligent basis with which to guide the child's choice of which course unsuitable for him and the mother blames the school when it is her own fault for not knowing how to assist in that choice. While the gymnasium and the equipment that makes it have proper physical exercises, Visit the entire aparatus. Look over the provision made for children's see and see if you approve. Notice what restaurants are set aside for the convenience of the teachers. Visit the nurses office, meet the nurse and thank her if she has been, of assistance in helping to correct your child's physical illness, with the idea that it is your school, that it exists for the good of you and your children. Make friends with everybody in it from the principal through the superintendent of the building. Be sure to speak to the superintendent for the good things that you have. If you see things that ought to be improved, likely you may do so, speak to the principal about them. Every principal is only too anxious to make his or her school the very best one in the city. Consequently, your suggestions will be graciously received, and very often acted upon, know that many principals feel that their improvements in their schools are due to that they have carried out practical suggestions for better school. impulses and desires must be controlled even with great efforts for the good of all. The teachers are also not to make personal issues of the child and parents can help most by avoid anger and over-confidence when their cooperation is sought by the school. A good start has been made in the care of personal belongings if the child has been on the job*. A word might be added last week's suggestions. Sew the child's name in hat, coat and even overshoes. This will help trace any misplaced article. The 1B parent can impress her child with responsiveness of losing costly clothing or little should be taught to avoid regulations that gloves, scarfs, and any other article of clothing as playthings. Throwing of own hat and those of others causes much unnecessary waste of teacher's time. These matters should be talked about by the parent. Nothing must be taken for granted when habits are being formed. As no home work is required or advisable in 1B the parent is hindering, rather than helping, when she buys expensive brief cases for the child to binge to school. Nor should she be packed away for the child when the child is older. In 1B, a pencil is all that is necessary. If a reader is sent home for use there the parent can help by seeing that an unclean or torn cover is replaced by new-brown paper. The mother should emphasize the cost the parent can give and the pleasure a book can give and the care to child for his books as friends. In 1B, the parent must continue the very important part of preparing for the child's first day in the classroom. Cleanslips. This again is a matter of habit formation and for habits to become fixed, constant adherence to rules must be carried out. A 7 year old child can begin to bathe himself. Of course, the mother maintains close supervision and gives a generous amount of praise and encouragement to improvement. She often initially do all the time making the child feel that he is doing a large part. In summer, a bath every night, and in winter, twice a week, is a reasonable schedule. The mother can justly be more severe with the child who is reported for breaking the more obvious restrictions mentioned in week 1 talk on sanitizing. When the child breaks such regulations, the parent should take a serious view of the matter and consult the family physician for the cause. An Open Letter In Regard Felix Unger JAMES A JACKSON 4442 Prairie Ave. Chicago, Ill. For the past six weeks, I have been in Birmingham, Ala., where I had been called to conduct a State Fair. During my absence considerable mail accumulated as home much of this being newspapers. Going through this matter upon my return yesterday, I was agreeably surprised to learn that Felix D. Unger, a former associate of mine in New York, has become a candidate for the State Assembly in the 21st District. Inasmuch as I have spent more than a score of my mature years as a resident of Harlem, more than anywhere else, despite the travelling character of my different positions; and since I anticipate a return to that community I am more interested in the welfare of the territory as my home. I so regard Harlem. It so happens that I have known Mr. Unger since my first arrival in New York. I have worked with him; have worked for him; and have enjoyed a close and friendly relation with his wife and sons. Have met his parents, and his wife and mine have enjoyed many interesting interviews. During all of these democratic contacts, he has demonstrated to me that he is good friend, and the workman in his life has an unusually well informed man. His attitude upon the race question seemed always to me to be that there just is no anything. Felix Unger is the type of man who should appeal to voters because of his sincerity as revealed in years of observation of the man in his everyday normal activities. I take the liberty of addressing this to Harlem, through your paps, hoping that they may confine your already held interest to a favourable influence for him should you not happen to know him. To work with a man, eat with him, know his family, and to often discuss with him in casual conversations the questions of the dity, is to know that man for what he is, rather than for what may be pretended. I feel it a duty to Harlem, and an expression of friendship to ship to the public make public sentiment. Perhaps it will clear the mind of some doubtful voter of misgivings. This is my volunteer contribution to the campaign of as decent, square shooting a white man as I have ever known. Had I known of his candidacy earlier, I should have gone to greater' length to help make him known to my people, for we have suffered much from campaign the friends, with no previous experience of years of experience such as Mr. Unger, has disclosed unconsciously to me. I should like to see this published so that Mr. Unger, and all other men, might know that some one is always watching their lives as they are being lived; and that we are measuring men with care nowadays. Had I found him an evil one, I should have as unhealthetely told you of that as I am telling you of his good for only that we may gain the determine who real friends may be. Plex Unger is one. Vety respectfully yours, JAMES A. JACKSON. Former "Billboard" Staff Editor, and an active member of many Harlem organizations. Veterans of Old 15th Return From Legion Convention In-Paris Among the passengers on the S. S. Coronia, which arrived in New York Monday, wer Harry C. Smith, 173 West 140th street, Henry F.

At a time when everything was supposed to be settled as far as this district is concerned, all delegates to the next general conference having been elected, with all Hurst men as far as is known, and everybody whooping for Bishop Hurst's return, John Henry Adams (called the "power behind the throne" in many transactions on the last three general conferences involving the election of two bishops and the overthrow of Aaron Mone in the college of clergy becomes a series of articles that threatens the very tranquility of the A. M. E. church in Florida. is for the good of the church that this should be done and not merely for the good of the bishops. Has Risen In Seals. Florida has risen from low down in the scale of church activity to night the highest point since Bishop Hurst came to Florida. Educationally, Florida has outstripped all other districts in recent quadreniums. Bishop Hurst deserves full credit for his able leadership, and whether he stays in Florida, or is moved, Edward Waters college will always stand as a monument to No one will misunderstand us. We would delight in seeing Bish Raised $18,500 for School. The article follows: "In spite of the cry of hard times, the African Methodist Episcopal church in Florida through the presiding elders of the church did the table at the trustee meeting of Edward Waters college, $18,500. Organization is responsible for this splendid showing and leadership is responsible for the organization. John 'Hurst affords the leadership "And, we are opposed to Bishop Hurst being returned to this district another four years, not because we love Bishop Hurst less but because we love the A. M. E. church more; we love the hard working presiding elders, the self sacrificing pastors and the thousands of faithful members of this church; we love freedom of speech as well as air out of the church; we wish to see developed to the full extent manhood and character and individuality in the ministry and in the pence inside the church as well outside; we wish to see progress not by force nor by intimidation nor by dependency but by intuition and inspiration and by intelligence, and aspiration; and we wish to see the fundamental laws and governing principles of the A. M. E. church from those directing the rotation of bishops, obeyed and carried out. We believe that the founders and fathers of the church knew what they were doing when they wrote the basic laws of the church just before the Constitution of the government the Constitution of this government knew what they were doing when they wrote the cardinal principles of the Union, and that the life of the church is as dependent on the impartial enforcement of the life of the federal government is dependent upon the constitution. - To Minimize Corruption. "To minimize corruption in government, the rule is fixed by sentiment if not by actual laws, for presidents to hold office one term and if by virtue of exigencies such as war or uncommon national prosperity, he should be retained in office a second term, that term shall be terminated if he is not not that the president will become corrupted but that those under him by appointment and otherwise will turn to personal advantages. "No one who knows Bishop Hurst would think for a moment that there is any likelihood of his becoming corrupted but the danger is in those under him. A good case of comparison is Georgia today. Bishop Flipper, a good and great man, suffers and all African Methodism in Georgia suffers because of his deep-seated deep-seated in his district during his all too long tenure as bishop of Georgia. Bishop Flipper just as Bishop Hurst and all other bishops should rotate. It is for the good 'of the church that likes, for the good of the bishops. Has Risen In Scale Florida has risen from low down in the scale of church activity tonight the highest point since Bishop Hurst came to Florida. Educationally, Florida has, outstretched all other districts in recent quadrumniums. Bishop Hurst deserves full credit for his able leadership, and whether he stays Florida, or is moved, Edward Waters college will always stand as a moment to remember. No one will misunderstand us. We would delight in seeing Bishop Hurst over as good a district as may be in the A. M. E. church. He is strong and capable not only as a bishop but as a man and citizen. He is painstaking and thorough in the performance of his duties. He is a big hearted personal friend, a kind man, but we regard the customs of the church and the good of the church paramount to any individ- "We have not talked behind the bishop back. We have not allowed hate or narrowness to influence is in whatever we say, and we hope that we can do that. We have striven to reach the intellectual viewpoint of Christian gentlemen with no thought of henchmen or dependent pignites."

Albon Holsey Analyzes Race Business Status One of the clearest and most illuminating expositions of the present status and problems of Negro business in the United States is contained in an article entitled "Negro Business: Its Real Test Is Still Ahead" by Albon L.

Mr. Hoyle contends that the real test for Negro business is in the retail field, and that, "In order to successfully enter this field the race must divert some of its better trained young men and women into the retail field and finance their enterprises with the surplus capital of Negro banks, insurance companies and fraternal organizations." The writer concludes with the warning that until our business has reached the point that it controls, fifty per cent of the race's annual expenditure. For life's necessities, "we can hardly claim, without some reservations, that the Negro has made the grade' in the business."

Striking Exhibit By Negro at Georgia Fair Atlanta, Ga.-At the Southeastern Fair, held here, the Negro exhibit was a striking evidence of progress on the part of the Negro farms, homes and schools of the state. Occupying the whole floor of the agricultural building, it packed a space of 20,000 square feet with a remarkable display of agricultural school products. Nineteen county exhibits are in evidence, many schools contributed, and there were individual exhibits running into the thousands. On every hand were evidences of diversified farming, soil improvement, seed selection, better marketing, meat production, and other characteristics of progressive agriculture. That the farm women are keeping pace was indicated by an array of canned fruits, vegetables, artistic needle work, and handmade articles for the home. The counties represented, for the most part were those in which Negro farm and school are employed, of whom there are in the state twelve men and fifteen women. The exhibit was viewed by thou- thousands of visitors and received highest commendation on all hands. Course In Journalism Offered At Howard Univ. Washington, D.

Brothers, an Assistant District Attorney, moved dismissal of the indictment on the ground of insufficient evidence. Let Your Friends Know Of This Big Saving. Do Not Wait Until To-morrow Send In Your Subscription Today. Nothwithstanding his innocence, Leake was held three months in the Tombus on the basis of an accusation made by Richard Daly, a habitual criminal, who has a long record of convictions Joseph Porricker a grocery clerk, was killed on March 28, last in the Dresner and Shapiro store at 200 West 140th street. Daly was arrested in July on a robbery and burglary charge, and as soon as he entered the West 135th street station he told the police he could "turn up the guy who shot. Porricker." Arrested By Detectives. So on July 24 Daly was taken in a police car by Sergeant Detective Boyden, both colored, on a cruise through the streets, to give Daly a chance to point out the alleged killer. As the car passed 29 West 99th street, Leaks was standing in front of the building talking to his wife, Irene Daly whispered to the detectives that Leaks was the man, and that his name was "Blue." The officers jumped out and arrested Leaks, handcuffing the man without giving him a chance to talk Then on August 3 Leaks was indicted for murder on Daly's statement. Penitless ignorant and bewildered. Leaks did not know what to do. The court assigned George William Clune of 21 East 40th street as his counsel. And Clune soon unearthed evidence showing that Leaks was being railroaded For Leaks was in bed sick from March 20 to April 10. The lawyer took this evidence to District Attorney Banton, who became convinced, and then Banton and Clune questioned Daly Confessed To Frameup. The latter soon gave in and admitted that he knew nothing about Leaks and less about the murder. The detectives were getting tired, he said, and Leaks seemed a likely victim. Then Daly charged that the detectives beat him and compelled him to swear he had seen Leaks kill the grocery clerk. And so when Leaks was arraigned in the Court of General Sessions on Thursday. October 20, Mr Brothers told Judge Koenig that Leaks was innocent, and that he had been involved in the matter by Daly, a criminal, who hoped thereby to win favor and lessening of a possible sever sentence. Daly had already served five prison terms. Brothers moved a dismissal ludge Koenig agreed without hesitation. He said "Motion entertained. And let me add that this is a fine example of a District Attorney using courage and honesty. This is true justice When the District Attorney found he was mistaken in indicting this man, he admitted it and set about to right the wrong instead of raging up and down the county trying solely for a conviction."

They have a two-year old boy child. Following the dismissal of the charges against Leaks, several metropolitan dailles seized upon Duly's statement that he had been beaten and forced by Detective Sergeant Battle and Detective Boyden to identify Leaks as the alleged slayer, that they might be able to "frame" a conviction in the murder of Poricker, and printed sensational articles, charging that the police officers were guilty of brutality and an attempt at railroading a man to the electric chair. When this was brought to the attention of Judge Koenig and District Attorney Banton, both officials declared the charges were baseless. Mr Banton said that no charges would be entertained against the detectives, as Daly's story was absolutely untrustworthy and had been changed two or three 1970 Blinding Pain at Certain Times "I was very weak and thin and used to suffer with very severe headaches." says Miss Annie Mae Brown. (1221.R. Whitaker St., Birmingham, Aln.) "I would be almost blind, the pain was so severe," she says. This was when I was just entering the upper classes at school. I didn't want to get behind. I suffered with my back and sides, too. Someone suggested that my mother give me Cardui, for which I am very thankful. I took 6 bottles at that time, and was soon strong and well and did not have severe headaches or pains at certain periods. "Twice since I have been a grown woman I have taken Cardui, and it never failed to help me." CARDUI Helps Women to Health times, "Unfortunately," he said; "there are persons who would send an innocent man to the chair in order to save themselves." Police Commissioner Joseph A. Warren, when questioned, said that his only information in the master had come from the daily press, and that no action would be taken unless it was requested by Judge Koenig or District Attorney Banton Continuing, he said: "Whether Leaks was innocent or guilty, there was nothing for Detective Sergeant Battle and Detective Boyden to do except arrest him when Daly pointed him out, and if they had failed to do so, both would have been liable to trial charges of dereliction of duty." Battle Denies Charges. Detective Sergeant Battle (612 16th Detective Squad) was seen and asked concerning the arrest and Daly's charges, and he emphatically denied that there was any attempt to "frame" Leaks or that he had beaten Daly to compel him to identify Leaks as the slayer of Boricker. As a matter of fact claimed Sergeant Battle his record shows that he has always treated prisoners and complainants as well, with exceptional courtesy. Over my own signature, said he "I deliv any prisoner that I have ever arrested, or any individual at any time or place, to truthfully state that I have beaten or mistreated them." The articles in the daily papers absolutely false as they are, were printed without any effort being made to ascertain the truth and I am firmly of the opinion that their only object was to discredit the police force and to injure and besmirch my reputation and record. They were a disgrace to our journalism. Continuing he said. I would request that any person might interview Leoey Leaks and get his version of the treatment that I acceded him the entire time he was in my study. Ask his lawyer, Mr. C. Leaks. I did not tell him on the course or in interview, in the Criminal Court building that I believed Daly to be living and that when the trial came off I hoped to produce a witness to prove that he was Since these sensational articles have appeared in the papers I have personally spoken to Inspectors Coughlin and Staplton to Assistant District Attorney Brothers and to District Attorney Banton and have sent a request to Judge Koe gass, ask him to enlist in an investigation but could not have said an investigation unnecessary that Daly's statements were so palpably false as not to warrant attention and that such articles should not have been printed in STILL SMILING, THOUGH LEG AND ARM ARE CUT OFF Castro, Victim of Taxi, Saw Present Fate In Dream 4 Years Ago "Smile and the world will smile with you, is the philosophy of a little man, weighing about one hundred and five pounds, propped up in a bed at the Harlem Hospital. This man is Rafael Castro, 30 years old, of 100 lonesavent About ten days ago, while crossing Lenox avenue, at 133rd street, Castro was struck by a northbound taxi, owned by the D M P Operating Company. The taxi knocked him under an approaching Lexington and Lenox surface car. Every effort was made to remove him from under the wheels of the street car but to no avail. A call was finally sent in to the no department at 133rd street and Lenox avenue, and the firemen, with use of an apparatus, jacked the car up, and removed the man. Through all of this he was still conscious, and said to the taxi driver, "You have almost killed Castro was rushed to the Harlem Hospital, where his left arm and right leg were amputated. His head was crushed so badly that his brains could be seen. He was also suffering from internal and other minor injuries, and was on the "serious" list at the hospital for several days. When a representative from The Age talked with Mr. Castro at the Harlem Hospital, he said that he dreamed of this accident four years ago while living in Connecticut. He said. Often while talking to people (suddenly this same incident would come before me like a ghost), and it would often make me shudder.

In this dramatization they showed the election of the chairman of their Parents' Association, Fred R Moore as Alderman. The meeting was held Thursday evening, October 20. Another interesting feature of the program was the singing of Miss Olive P Hopkins, soprano soloist of Mt Olivet Baptist Church, with Lorenzo F Dyer as accompanist Miss Eva Jessye, director of the Dixie Jubilee Singers, also gave a talk on music and several choral selections were rendered by the student glee club under direction of Mrs. Maske.

Meetings of this Association are held in the school auditorium the third Thursday in each month RENOVATED The latest political information from the National Capital is to the effect that Mr. Coolidge is not to be drafted into accepting the Republican nomination for the Presidency. That when he said he did not choose to run, he meant exactly what he said, and that he has seen no reason to change his choice in the matter. Senator Fess of Ohio, who confidently predicted that Mr. Coolidge would be drafted by the convention and accept a re-nomination in response to the call of the party, was said to have been sharply rebuked for his putting such an interpretation upon the President's utterances. Mr. Coolidge's reputation for consistency is said to forbid any such interpretation. This phase of the situation has encouraged the supporters of other candidates to reassert their claims as tall men in the grove of Presidential timber. Former Senator Calder of New York confidently proclaimed that Hughes, Hoover or Dawes can carry New, York State, even if Governor Smith is nominated by the Democrats. This sounds like overconfidence on the part of the ex-Senator, especially as to Mr. Hughes, who was never popular with the politicians and has lost ground with the voters since he came so near defeating President Wilson for a second term. If New York State wants to present its strongest candidate for the Presidential nomination, it need go no further than Columbia University and take its President, Dr. Nicholas Murray, Butler, who unlike Mr. Hughes, is not too old to run, although old enough to know and uphold Republican traditions and the basic principles upon which the party was founded. Here is an outstanding Republican who has the courage of his convictions upon all the questions before the voters of the country, even including prohibition. And he does not hesitate to express them. There is no equivocation or straddling in his composition. No Republican in public life in this state could give Governor Smith a harder battle for the electoral vote of New York than Dr. Butler. It is time for the Republican leaders to take their courage in both hands and to to the people with clean cut issues and a candidate who is not afraid to face defeat in the support of those issues. Courage of this kind is necessary to win in elections as in other contests. No evasion of ticklish questions nor two-faced platform of party principles is going to fool the people this year. The issues must be cleancut with a candidate to match them. A KLAN-RIDDEN STATE. According to the Attorney General of Alabama that state is a living example of the inability of organized government to cope with the intimidation practiced by the Ku Klux Klan. Spurred on by the reign of terror that exists in Crenhaw county, the legal authorities secured over one hundred indictments and forty-five arrests on various flogging charges. The witnesses who testified before the grand jury have been threatened and intimidated and in many instances thrown out of employment. This action by the white robed night aders of the klan caused Attorney General McCall, himself a member of the organization, to resign his membership in a letter to the Exalted Cyclops, pub- lished in the New York World, in which he states that the klan in 'Alabanna is in the hands of a lawless leadership. He added that he was convinced, that it was of the purpose or intent of its leaders said the officers of the law to enforce where crimes are committed by the mansmen. The leaders have intimidated the lawabiding members and attacked the officials who are seeking to enforce the laws. Mr. McCall said that he re- arded his oath as an officer of the law superior to any private or fraternal oligation. This is opposed to all the aditions of the klan, and stamps Mr. McCall as recreant to his Klan obligations. Attorney General McCall was elected last November on a klan ticket, as was Governor Bibb Graves, who is an acknowledged klan patriarch. A report was presented to the Governor of the powerlessness of the law to protect its witnesses against the intimidation of the klan. Some of these witnesses have fled in terror, while others whose homes had been visited by masked men, had been warned to leave. Several trials for flogging in Jefferson county were postponed until January, it appearing that a great majority of the veniremen from whom a jury would be chosen, were klansmen. 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 occupant of this office should himself be a klansman is 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 government 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 invisible government by an irresponsible secret organization is suffered to usurp the functions of the regularly constituted authorities, unfit as they are in many cases. DUMB POLITICIANS An acute editorial writer in the New York Herald Tribune, the standard bearer of orthodox Republicanism, recently unertook to explain the divagations of one of the recognized leaders from update, by pronouncing him "Just Dumb." While we have no reason to consider the politician referred to as any dumber than cost 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 was 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 orace Greeley and Charles A. Dana. We reproduce the article for its rarity in these days of soft slush and apple sauce: An acute editorial writer in the New York Herald Tribune, the standard bearer of orthodox Republicanism, recently undertook to explain the divagations of one of the recognized leaders from upstate, by pronouncing him "Just Dumb." While we have no reason to consider 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 is an amazing consistency in the political utterances of the Hon. Seymour Lowman, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, Whether as Lieutenant Governor he is at tempting to lead his party 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, trigs and falls on his ear. To call him a "bull in a china shop," as do the tender hearted Washington correspondents, is to flatter grossly his acumen and energy. In good upstate language, he is just dumb. We think of only one argument against his separation from his Washington job. That is that the result would be his return to the local political scene. But, after all, so long as the Republican leaders of the State of New York think that such men belong in public office, they will be able to find them, whether Mr. Seymour Lowman is retired or not. While Mr. Lowman has had greater opportunity to exhibit the qualities which have brought the Republican party to such Jow estate in New York, he is by no means an exception. It is the putting forward of such men 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 succession of defeats and fill Republican voters with disgust, when they view the lack of purpose or consistency in party policies. Sidestepping vital issues and putting on a soft pedal when questions involving human rights are concerned, will not get the party anywhere. Throwing mud at Governor Smith will not convince doubtful voters that Republicans can do better. Under the dumb policy pursued by Republican leaders during recent campaigns New York Republicans have lost two United States Senators, the Governor and other State officers, besides most of the members of the legislature from New York City. It is only through the unequal apportionment of the State which favors the country districts, that the legislature has not gone Democratic. If the Republican party wants to regain its place as the dominant force in state politics it must cease depending on Presidential campaigns to carry through its local candidates. It must cease exalting dumbness and mediocrity into the 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. Lowman's offending was when he flouted the New York City Republicans as a negligible quantity, because of repeated defeats of their local candidates. He failed to recognize their exertions to bring out a vote that would count for state officers and thereby lessened his own chances of reelection as Lieutenant Governor. His latest addition to the discussion of prohibition enforcement in the complacent statement that booze hunters are dying off fast from poison hooch, indicates callous 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 of poison hooch. Maybe the Herald Tribune 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 Charge night club cases, in which padlocks are attached to the premises as punishment for serving ginger ale, ice and passes to patrons who carried their own passes, ice and ginger ale, into which the guests poured intoxicating liquor constituted a violation of the Volstage by the clubs and their proprietors, such a strict construction of the law would probably put every night club in New York out of business, if there were efficient padlocks. The whole business of attaching patrons to premises where liquor is so savored of a straining of the law and has generally been done by consent to avoid the delay of a trial. But to enforce this penalty, of doubtful legality at first, where there is no proof of sale, going further than the law ever intended, now is the snooper who makes the constraint going to prove that the liquorured into the glass by the guest is exicating or not, undess he seizes it should a seizure under such circumstance be legal, or would it only provoke a law 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 the offending with ginger ale high balls look like straining at a gnat while swallowing the camel. For instance, the sale of potato hooch still continues openly and bravely in many parts of Harlem, with interference by the prohibition enforcement officers. Denatured alcohol is carried from industrial uses to furnish the bootleggers with their base for manufacturing hooch. Stills are sold and set up garages and tenement houses without permission and at the imminent danger causing fires and explosions. And yet the law is strained to put a ban on ginger ale high balls. The only effective way to start a real perseverance movement would seem to be to encourage the use of beverages that are not in fact intoxicating. Far better to amend the Volstead act so as to allow the manufacture and sale of beer at lines, and at least lessen the resort to stronger drink of poisonous quality.

Far better to amend the Volstead act so as to allow the manufacture and sale of beer and wines, and at least lessen the resort to stronger drink of poisonous quality. DANGEROUS STOOL PIGEONS. The employment of stool pigeons on the police authorities may be necessary to obtain evidence, upon which to detain and convict persons breaking the law but it can only be justified as a necessity evil. This practice has given rise to many cases of trumped up charges based on manufactured evidence that the testimony of stool pigeons, or informe 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 testimony 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 permitted to disappear, and the woman is held on an unsupported charge, which damages 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 provoke the commission of such offence in order to make an arrest. In fact these informers have been known to obtain entrance in respectable apartment houses on some pretext or other, and endeavor to hire a room and frame up the tenement on charges of this nature. A notorious rogue of this sort was finally sent to My Visit To The West Indies While the effort of the police 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. Evidence so obtained 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 securing evidence,paid for out of the city funds,no woman On the twenty-second of September we sailed on the SS Dominica for a tour of the West Indies. The Dominica is the largest steamer sailing for the West Indies. It is exceptionally clean and is manned by colored men, except the higher officials. It was a treat to see such dignity and efficiency among our men. After nearly six days on a glassy calm sea, among agreeable passengers, we were in West Indian waters completely rested in brain and body. As the ship reached St. Thomas, the first stop in the tropics—some seventeen hundred miles from New York—we joined with the other passengers in throwing dimes into the sea to see the native boys dive for them. We were also thrilled at seeing a shark. A Fertile Isle St. Thomas is fertile and beautiful. About 13 miles long and of volcanic origin, with a range of hills east and west. "Charlotte Amalie," its only town, is built on three of these hills and it is spotless. On the pier there are large piles of coal and it is interesting to watch the colored native women coal the ship, carrying great baskets of coal on their heads in a long continuous line up the gang plank. Most of the houses are one story in height and of brick. The town has one long street, ending at a factory. On two side streets nearby we found some quaint houses of French refugees. The beautiful bays afforded delightful sea bathing horseback riding is enjoyed the year round. After a trip over the town by taxi cab, we returned to the steamer for lunch. Then the steamer moved off toward St. Croix, our next stop which was three hours distance. The steamer anchored about 2 miles from the St. Croix pier. All around us pretty little rowboats filled the bay. We waited for the pilot to take the steamer in and when we saw the Rev. Agaard and his two charming daughters in one of the row boats, we were pleasantly surprised. But my joy was cut short when I learned my rowboat was waiting. I love the sea but only when there is a 2,400 ton steamer between us. Always I have had a horror of a rowboat being filled with water. And the thoughts of how to ride in a rowboat in the Bay with big fish playing around, was quite distressing to me. However, after much persuasion by the handsome colored custom officer, I started down the long ladder outside the ship, and as two men held me, I prayed my way to the last step and that row boat. A Wonderful Harbor Two boys with muscles like Harry Wills rows to our the pier and it was delightful. I wish I had the gift to describe this beautiful bay with its hundreds of boats of all kinds filled with passengers (some in bathing suits) and a background of the bluest blue skies over snow white clouds. Think not of beauty until you have seen the sunset in the West Indies.' An auto was waiting for us and after meeting some of the natives, we drove seven miles through beautiful cultivated sugar plantations, lined with palm and coconut trees—with a little village of laborers' houses here and a rich estate there. Now a windmill, now a glimpse of the sea. It is my first visit to the West Indies and I was charmed with the quaint houses and the distinctive mannerism and customs of the Danish people Then to the Zion Methodist parsonage where we enjoyed a delicious dinner. I had never before slept in a canopied bed, all ruffles and lace and lined with pink netting. However, I found it very comfortable and slept soundly until called for breakfast. Frederickstead, St Cross is the town where Alexander Hamilton, a signer of the Declaration of Independence and the first Secretary of the Treasury, was clerking when he emigrated to America. The Luther, Moravian, Catholic, Episcopalian, Zion and Bethel Churches are here. A labor strike is on and all the natives are standing together as men. Donkie mules, jacks, horses and autos are used to cover the distance from one plantation to another. The Holstein Estate On an early morning horseback ride, we saw the beautiful $10,000 estate bought by Casper Holstein, and the other estates he is contemplating taking over in order to lease them to small farmers. Mr. Holstein sends every year to St Cross $1,000 to buy toys and Christmas dinners for the poor of the Island. After a visit to our churches in Bethelhem and Fredristiked, our stay was over and we resumed our tour. St. Kitts was our next stop. The steamer anchored nt the roadbed of "Basse Terre." This town has a quaint foreign settlement. We saw here some beautiful drives, sugar cane and cotton fields a fine English church and a club where the merchants meet over their swizzles, also some attractive shops. In the distance is Mt. Missery, an elevation of 5000 feet and on the shore of the Island the old historic fortification, "Brimstone Hill." Back to ship for dinner and our sail to Antigua, Both St. Kitts and Antigua are British. Antigua is the seat of government of the Leeward Islands, Pelicans and sea birds surround the coast. Here also is the central grinding sugar factory. Leaving Antigua our next stop was Gaudeloupe. Being French, it is interesting to note the difference in the people. The architecture of the houses and the general aspect of the city of "Ponte-a-Pierre" as compared to the British Islands is most marked and interesting and altogether charming. The inhabitants are educated and refined. Then to the steamer for Dominica or Dominica is similar to the other islands. Its special interest being that it is the only place where a tribe of the once fierce Carib Indians are found. They are now law abiding, peaceful and are pensioned by the government. Home of Napoleon's Wife We have always wanted to see Martinique because it was the birthplace of Josephine Sascher de la Pagere (of colored blood), the first wife of Napoleon Bonaparte, emperor of France. "In the park is a statue of this beautiful Empress. Martinique is the larger of the lesser 'Antilles.' We didn't go ashore at St Lucia but waited to visit Barbadoes, one of the most beautiful and prosperous islands on the sea. It is British and the natives are proud because the island was never captured. It is very densely populated, 75,000. One may drive for many through all sorts of tropical plants, fruit and flowers. Near Bridge-town there are some very fine residences and beautiful grounds. The Governor's residence Earley Hall, and the churches built of stone and draped in ivy are very attractive. Our last port—Trimidad, close to Venezuela—is surrounded by cliffs One has a delightful view from the deck. There are four of these cliffs or passages from the ocean, the Gulf of Paria—Barcos del Mona, Barcos del Dragos, Barcos del Narius and Barcos del Grande The Spanish name for these cliffs means dragon mouth. A unique and picturesque transformation takes place when the ship comes into the passages, in the still waters of the Gulf of Paria. This gulf may well be called the Gulf of a Thousand Enchantments A Cosmopolitan City Fifteen miles along the coast is the Port-of-Spain. Coming ashore we found much to interest us in this cosmopolitan city. You may imagine you are in India, Japan or China, the population is so varied Many European and American tourists were seen. Thirty miles from Port-of-Spain is San Fernando Many of the inhabitants are Indians, some aboriginal, some of mixed blood. Near San Fernando is the famous pitch or asphalt lake, "Lalrea". The source is inexhaustible More than 170,000 square yards of City pavements have been laid in the United States and many miles in other parts of the world with asphalt from this lake. We leave the last island, homeward bound, with regret that the end of this romantic voyage is drawing near. We settle down in a dreamy mood, recalling the many interesting and beautiful things we have seen in the gems of the Caribbean Sea. The steamer, which was our hotel during the voyage, returns to St Thomas where we spend a few days and then take a second steamer for San Juan, Porto Rico. We shall spend some time here before returning home. Great Weekly Paper Great Weekly Paper Editor The New York Age: I have just finished reading your great weekly paper and I have found it to be one of the greatest papers of the race and I only wish that I could visit your place I wish to express my gratitude for your great paper and especially for your good work as I feel it is a great uplifting to humanity. Discussing the problem of Transportation in the British island of Bermuda, the Hamilton Recorder claimed that in and around Hamilton the bicycle is the all prevailing blessing. It added: The advocates of motor vehicles contend that the introduction of proper cars, capable of conveying a considerable number of persons from place to place, rapidly and comfortably, would solve the difficulty of land transportation. They claim that the initial cost would be less, especially when one considers the advantages that will accrue to the public; that under government supervision a proper speed limit could be secured which would eliminate all accidents that reckless driving might incur; that the inland and foreign mails would be carried to different centres at no cost to the public; that no more damage would be done to the public roads than what the ordinary traffic does. The opponents of this method of conveyance claim that the introduction of motor vehicles would be he thin edge of the wedge and that in a short time the country would be overrun with motor cars and this would spell ruin to the tourist business,—Bermuda's most valuable asset. The House of Assembly is called upon to solve this problem of land and water transportation at an early date. Pronouncing it a matter of deep concern and regret that Provident Hospital, among the oldest and most famous of Chicago hospitals, is classed among the six conditionally approved by the American College of Surgeons, the Chicago Bee said: The status of Provident is no reflection upon its staff, but rather to the discredit of the 200,000 people for whom it was founded, endowed and maintained. Our own medical men, aided by those of other groups, have exhausted every means at their command and used every entreaty to stir us to full support of this nationally known hospital and training school, located in the heart of our areas of population and dedicated and devoted to the curative as well as the preventative physical ills of our citizen. With its Training School for nurses, its free dispensary and clinics, its facilities for the training of internes, and opportunities afforded for the development of surgeons and specialists in all fields of medicines, it is deserving and merits and should have the full support of all of our citizens at all times. This, however, has not been the case. It is our duty to see to it that Provident is placed in the group entitled to the "full approval" of the American College of Surgeon. A larger measure of racial support should result from this frank statement of the situation In its news columns the Cleveland Gazette noted a significant symptom in the local politics of that city. I said It was not the first time within memory local Democrats ever indorsed a "colored" candidate—when Dr E. J. Gregg, council candidate in the third district, was indorsed by the Democratic organization (ex. May you continue your good work M McMOOR1. Menard 111. NATIONAL URBAN LEAGUE 17 Madison Avenue, N. Y.

He was active last fall in supporting Sheriff E. J. Hanatty and Edmund B. Haserodt, defeated for county commission. Both Democrats This action indicates positively that the Democrats are wooing the heavy "colored" vote, said the Plain Dealer of last week Thursday. Adam Damm, city treasurer, spoke briefly against the indorsement, but "Bug Chief" W. Burr Cogwer prevailed over the rest of the committee and "played good politics," too as usual. This indicates that the colored voters of Ohio are no longer regarded as pledged to blind support of the G. O. P. To which chaffage the editor of the Gazette has contributed not a little. 10 According to the Washington Tribune, the protest against racial segregation in the Interior Department brought out the following memorandum from Secretary Hubert Work to the Commissioner of Pensions: "Referring to the recent general re-organization in the Bureau of Pensions, it has come to me that the establishment of the new division of files has brought about dissatisfaction among some of the colored employee through a misunderstanding of the purpose ought to be attained. "It appears that the re-organization effected has actually promoted a number of colored employees to important positions and has afforded opportunity for other colored employees to prepare themselves for more responsible work and promotion. "However, I want no feeling that there was any so called segregation intended in the changes complained of, because such a feeling would militate against efficiency, the only purpose contemplated by the change. "Therefore, I suggest that all the employees in the Pension Bureau both white and colored, affected by this new organization of the division of files, be restored to the location and work assignments which they formerly occupied." It would seem that at least one member of Mr. Crohidge's cabinet has been convinced that departmental segregation militates against efficiency. There are others who need to be converted to this belief. It seems that Senator Bingham of Connecticut became much worked up over what he termed "the arrogant stubbery, the studied discourtesy and the assumption of superiority on the part of the white man," which he observed during an tour of the Orient and which he held responsible for the revolt against foreigners. The Boston Chronicle commented on his utterances as follows: Senator Bingham's observations are enlightening, the utterance of his condemnation encouraging. We admire his courage and take the liberty to remind him that right in the Senate with him all through the government at Washington among him are "Messies Wu" and to know what the "arrogant slobbery, stung discourtesy and assumption of superiority on the part of the whim man" are along to the "orientation of America, we commend to us tention the slogan: "So American First!" Senator Bingham did not need to go to China to discuss the trans-excorated sooth. He must have seen them on parade in the Senate Chamber too often to be surprised. With the injunction, "Take Care of That Job," the Denver Colorado Stateman said "no longer do we have a monopoly on barber shops, janitorships or shoe-shining parlors. We are finding keen competence in all hands, and from the very white man and woman, who a decade of so ago looked like shiners, we work regarded as men. I am grateful, as a race we have never been a particular True, we possess both buttons, and in the last two years have made commendable advance both in the profession and in business. As yet, however all the care of but a limited body is the most part we are dealing with, interests us more than most we at this time is that we all serpulously hold all we get more as rapidly as possible. Efficiency is the wat bwildly essential element. We may not understand the full truth of this term, and by way of it, we would suggest be more aware the habit of going best, and avoid most of the custom of "playing" every funeral that occurs, or every piece that is given or even that parte that passes Denver as a whole, need with a the class of work: whose record for consistent performance cannot be excelled, and in these observations we are neither a planning nor finding fault. We a simply calling attention to certain may possible grow out of a much dances and other things that we dar our giving the best that is which in us to those who employ us. That is sound advice of a practical kind, which should serve to keep those who follow it out of the long lines at the employment agencies. 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.

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 WHERE TO GO TO CHURCH the earth, but throughout the centuries following His advent, death, resurrection and ascension. 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.

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, School, 12:45 p.m. v.

Church "We are still in a primitive stage of life when we only think of food to eat and rament to wear.

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.

MOTON, Principal Tuskegee Institute, Alabama 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. The parish house had its reopening Sunday.

The grand ball held at Washington Gardens on Tuesday evening brought together members of the order from out of town in large numbers as well as the society folk-of-this and nearby towns. The banquet on Wednesday evening was designated in honor of J. T. Brady, a charter member, upon whom the degrees of past grand exalted ruler was conferred at the grand lodge session in New York. One of the leading characters in this anniversary was Richard ("Dick") Workman.

WALTON (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. most ambitious Negro owners Aaron Douglass, ter, whose illustrious for books publish leading New York favored favorable delegated to give to the Club Ebc.

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 By JOHN PAUL JONES 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 FIELD & TRACK 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? yard drop kick in the game between Clark and Jazz Byrd's "Gators."

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.

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.

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. Officials: Dabney (Hampton) referee, Walker (Lincoln) umpire, Dr Hill (Clark) headlinesman.

In the second half the Clark backs scored four times. through the line, on the flashing ends who were always on the spot wait- ing for a man to receive a punt that they might down him in his tracks, these were the outstanding features of the game.

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 ALHAMBRA The Friendly Theatre 126th Street & Seventh Ave. Now Playing This Week Flaming Follies One Week Beginning Monday, October 31— RODEO GIRLS Something Entirely New—Something Different—Fun and Frivolity of the Western Plains—Cowboys, Frontier Bad Men, and all The STARS OF LAUGHTER Emmett Anthony Mantan of California, Slim Henderson, Lena Wilson And many others and the WILD WEST GIRLS Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday CLARA BOW Darling of the Screen and a Star Cast, In FREE TO LOVE Midnite Ramble, Wednesdays Shady Rest Club Has Been Reorganized Westfield, N.

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.

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. Dorsey Wood Farm Powell, Pa.—Miss Ida Henderson of New York returned home last week after spending three weeks here. Mrs. M: E. Bailey of Plainfield who spends summer at Satchenhead, Coun. is now at the Dorssey JO Ball, manager of the farm, reports a good season. Crops turned out good.

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.

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.

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.

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. Hopewell, Va.

E TODAY Leading School of Hair and Beauty Culture COLLEGE ST LOUIS, MO. U. S. A. We think we have discovered the reason why our Negro vote in Harlem is not any larger than it is. It is due to the fact of having to register. If all the potential voters in Harlem could forego the matter of registration and qualify without it, voting in the colored section would double itself. Yes, surely, believe it or not, having to register is fatal to the Negro vote of Harlem. Of course, the political leaders and wiseacres of Harlem will pooch this opinion as being fantastic. Get in conversation with anyone one of them regarding the relative number of ballots cast in this section during an election, and each one will offer an entirely different reason as to the apathy of Negro Harlem in voting. Some of the various reasons advanced contain no doubt, a certain amount of merit. But after visiting a Registry Board in Harlem, during the last registration, the thought came that the political surgeons have diagnosed the vote aliment entirely wrong. Harlem wants to vote, but Harlem doesn't care about registering. Now, you of philosophical mind will say: Why what a foolish opinion. To you, anyone who has a desire to express himself through the ballot should certainly have no hesitation about enrolling himself. But you will agree that all potential voters are not philosophical. You will also agree that, in effect, registration is an inquisition. And Harlem is rather, sensitive when it comes to being interrogated. Age, occupation, domesticity and residence are not conditions which all of Harlem are fond of divulging. This may not be a characteristic of Harlem alone, but it was in Harlem that the following observations were made. It was on Saturday evening, the last day of the recent registration. It was then about nine thirty, and the little dingy barber shop was packed to the point of suffocation. In fact, it would have been better hygienically, at least, if the registrants had been made to stand on the sidewalk, and enter the place one at a time. As it was, everyone of the hundred or more present tried to push himself into a room which was three-fourths too small. The lone policeman on duty endeavored to keep the last-minute registrants where they could inhale the fresh air, but it was one of those nights that carried a tinge of fall air, and Harlem is not fresh air crazy. And while all of those who pushed their way into the room may not have been of philosophical bent, they certainly were not of the shirker's class. And, considering that Harlem is averse to certain interrogations, these sensitive souls answered their questioner bravely, even though some were somewhat confused as to the meaning of "householder" "business" and "residence". But it wasn't these that gave the impression that the vote of Harlem would be larger if Harlem did not have to register. It was the demure, little woman who was asked her age. These registration clerks are evidently not appointed because of their sympathetic tact. The little woman hesitated at the question. It was plainly to be seen that she was panic stricken. She most likely believed that it was absolutely necessary for her to give her correct age; no one had instructed her in the art of age-evasion. She finally came through with it, but everyone in the room could sense that it was an ordeal. If she doesn't learn the trick of avoiding the age question, Harlem will be one registrant short the next time it is necessary to register. Hiram Williams was the next-person who was reluctant to give personal details. Seeingly, Williams has a dislike for telling folks his occupation. And, if you are a stauch believer in appearances, you would hardly blame him, for he did portray the imitation of a French dandy, both in dress and manner. But Williams in actual life follows the vocation of drug store porter. He suggested no hesitation in naming the place at which he worked, but his voice dropped to a whisper when the clerk insisted on his particular occupation there. Then there was Peter Jonca. Jones is a Pullman porter, and, during his off days, dabbles in real estate. He was within his rights, no doubt, to say that "real estate" is his business. Still, the thought did come that he would have been nearer the truth by giving his real occupation. In three out of every five registrants observed, it was patent that there was some part of the questionnaire that they were shy or evasive in answering. If these sensitive persons are typical of Harlem, and it may be ventured that they are, how about the number who will not even lay themselves open to being questioned? Believe it or not, the necessity of having to-first register, is deadly to Harlem's Negro vote. --- Parents of school children, as well as those of younger children, will feel encouraged. to hear that Dr. Harris reports a decrease in the number of infantile paralysis case. The commissioner, announced that the number of cases is constantly dropping and that there is no cause for concern among parents of school children. Infantile paralysis appears more frequently in the Hits of infectious diseases in the late summer. The advert of colder weather usually stamps out the disease. The number of reported cases in New York City this year is less than in 1921 and 1923. The best preventive measure to guard children against disease is to keep their general resistance high. That is, keep them in good physical condition by giving them nourishing food and making it possible for them to get plenty of play out of doors to see that they obey the rules of food and make them completely included from all contact with patients who have the disease, of course. And on general principles keep them away from overcrowded places, and especially where polypillomelia prevails. The early symptoms of infant paralysis are much like those of other acute diseases. There is usually a rise in temperature and gastrointestinal disturbances. General malaise, headache, restlessness and irritability, which is usually followed by drowsiness, with a diminution to move the body or to be in paralysis usually occurs two or three days after the onset of symptoms. This may be aided by the arm and sometimes the muscles of the palate or eye are involved. If your child develops any of these symptoms consult your doctor at once as immediate care and after care are important, in this issue. Growing children need well-planned mature environments for healthy growth and development - The main goal is balanced and nourishing, and they should also be well prepared and appetizing, so that the children will be eager to eat them. Children from four to seven should have a diet which includes cereal, eggs, fruits, vegetables, state cheese, milk, fruit salad, onion, butter, cream and a small amount of sugar. The meals should be planned so that these foods are included in a whole day's menu but not all of them in each meal. Breakfast should include some kind of fruit orange juice, the juice of an orange or puff or juice of cooked fruit. Give the child cereal with cream and milk also. The child's main meal should be at noon-time. This may include broiled lamb chop or ground lamb stewed or ground beef or liver stew or a main dish of creamed macerated meat. The meat should also include at least one fresh vegetable, such as carrots, spinach peas; stewed tomatoes. A custard on cornstarch *pudding makes a, good dessert* Brown Betty, prune jelly, fruit tapioca, prune dumplings, almond cookie, an oatmeal cookie, rice pudding, or any of the simple desserts may be given for variety.* It is, especially important to serve a dish hot at dinner, when the child is going to school. It may include bread and milk or cereal and milk, or baked potato (if that has not been given for dinner) or a warm cream soup, or some fresh vegetables and bread and butter. It is also important to serve a sauce, baked custard or cookies may be given. Pork Should Be Cooked Well Done; Don't Eat Raw Though pork is an excellent food it should be thoroughly cooked. This advice from the United States Department of Agriculture is especially timely during hoof-killing time and Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday season. Failure to observe this precaution may be followed by a serious illness known as trichinosis. This disease is caused by a small cell with sometimes occurs in pork. The trichina parasite is microscopic in size, and consequently is never seen except in very careful microscopic examinations. Ordinarily hogs which harbor the parasites show no symptoms. Besides, pork containing trichine generally has the same appearance as other pork. Federally inspected meat products are intended to be eaten without Colonial Governor Tells Of Adoption In Africa Of Washington's Way Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—Tuskegee Institute's methods of vocational education are the methods which have been adopted for the education of the natives of the Gold Coast, British West Africa, according to 'Sir Frederick Gordon Guggleberg, K. C. M. G., D. S. O., R. E., former governor of that colony, who addressed the, students, sir, here Thursday evening, and sir, making a tour of America visiting the schools for the education of the Negroes South and the rural schools of the west. He spent four days at Tuskegee observing educational methods here. "Booker T. Washington has not only helped you here, in America," Gordon declared, "but his influence has reached out overseas. We have been both adopted his idea. We hope ultimately to spread industrial education through out Africa. "What we are trying to do in the Gold Coast is to give the hapless sufficient opportunity for education, that gradually they may come into line with their tribal customs in line with their modim civilization. We are trying to develop them from within rather than from without by exterior force." The policy of the colony, Sir Gordon azid, provides for the progress and welfare of the people. He told the progress in public health and education since the war in the Philippines, the Prince of Wales School and College has been established and nineteen hospitals have been built throughout the country. The speaker told of the customs of the people, their progress in civilization and the products of the country. He commended the American Negro or the progress made in education and the acquirement of property. American Negroes ought to be interested in the Gold Coast, Sir Gordon stated, because it is their motherland and because it is a part of the British Empire which, together with America, must maintain civilization for the future. Consequently, any pork products bearing the Federal stamp are safe. Most cases of trichinosis occur on farms, and in rural districts. Outbreaks also have occurred in cities, espices among towns which feed the livestock of its countries where pork is commonly eaten unpacked. Products that are especially likely to contain trichinae are raw pork in any form, smoked and dried sausage, and articles of food containing pork that has not been thoroughly cooked.

To make pork safe all that is necessary is to cook it until it reaches the stake known as "done", which is also the stage at which pork is most palatable to the average person. Since heat penetrates slowly into meat in the process of cooking, larger pieces of cooked pork outside may be imperfectly cooked at the center. Accordingly, "care should be taken the meat is cooked throughout and not merely on the outside.
