To 500 Followers Who Marched Barheaded In Rain To Bid Their Alien Leader Good Bye, Had $10,000 As was told almost exclusively in The Age of last week, Marcus Garvey, President General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and Provisional President of Africa, according to his own nomination, was deported back to Jamaica, British West Indies, from New Orleans, after his five year sentence in the Federal Prison at Atlanta had been commuted to the time already served, 2 years, nine months, eighteen days. instagram or being allowed a stay of any sort to permit the filing of a plea, said; to prevent any uncled demonstration by New York followers of the convict, head of the U.

A. through its officers, stated that $10,000 had been raised and turned over to Garvey to defray expenses of the trip to Jamaica and to take care of settling there after arrival. This is contradicted by statements from other sources in the effect that Garvey plans to leave Jamaica almost immediately after reaching there for some African or European port. On boarding the vessel, it was seen that Garvey had discarded the ill-fitting suit of clothes he wore on leaving Atlanta, which had been supplied by the prison officials, wearing instead a nasty light brown checked suit, well fitted, and he carried a silver headdress.

A half hour before the steamer sailed, Garvey made a speech to his followers, pledging to carry on his work for Negro freedom and charging that he was the victim of a fraternity so that lands he was to colonize in Africa could be taken from him. He said further: "I desire to conver to my supporters and friends and to the American public in general my heartfelt thanks for the great confluence of my experiences and especially during the periods of my trial and imprisonment, which I regard as a wonderful testimony of the knowledge they have of my innocence. "I leave America as happy as when I came, in that my relationship with the Negro people was most pleasant and inspiring, and I shall work forever in their behalf in the program of Nationalism is the important now as it ever was to entire life will be devoted to the supreme purpose it will be only truly believe in it only by rationing the Negro and awakening him to the possibilities of himself that his universal problem can be solved. er their interest in me as a cause for respecting everywhere and always the rights of their race. "The program I represent is not hostile to the white race or any other race. All that I want to do is to complete the freedom of the Negro economically and culturally and make him a full man.

Within the past ten years four large apartment, houses of the highest type have been vaqated by white tenants and turned over to Negroes. On last Saturday the Harlem Real Estate Exchange took over the rentals at 409-417 Edgecombe avenue, a thirteen story building with apartments of from 2 to 6 rooms for 118 families. This is the largest and finest apartment building in the immediate vicinity of Harlem. Located in one of the most beautiful islands in the Harlem River, the Bronx and downtown New York. The building was erected some fifteen years ago from absolutely fireproof materials. I: has three, elevators and the rooms are exceptionally large, with private halls, closets, etc. The five and six room apartments have two private baths, some of the six have three baths. Lloyd R Johnson, managing director of the Colonial Parkway, is enthusiastic over the way the build ing and declared to a representative of The Age that a stream of prospective tenants have been built on.

HOWARD GETS 72 YEARS ON EIGHT ATTACK CHARGES Camden Judge Says Man Was Lucky To Escape Mob Vengeance Camden, N. J.-Indicted on eight counts in connection with his attack on Miss Josephine Moffa, of Atco, Charles Howard, a Negro, was found guilty before Judge Henry Burt Ware in Camden County Court and sentenced to seventy-two years in the state prison at Trenton. "You are lucky you were not strung up and bitten by a mob," Judge Ware said after he had imposed sentence. The Negro was taken immediately to prison accompanied by a heavy gun, which had surrounded him from the time of his arrest. State police and court officials had fired violence, but, despite the indignation of the countryside farmers and the four brothers of Miss Moffa, there was no demonstration. Washington, D. C.—A reapportionment resolution, inspired by the charge made by Representative George Holden Tinkham, Republican of Massachusetts, that the House of Representatives, "is not organized honestly and, constitutionally and does not fairly represent the American people and American sentiments" was introduced Tuesday. No apportionment of the House of Representatives has occurred since the 1920 census, whereas Section 2, Article 1 of the Constitution provides that the Lower House shall be reorganized every ten years, declared Representative Tinkham in a statement to night. and Constitution's government in the United States does not exist to-day," said the Congressman, Republican leaders of the House, joining with the Representatives from the insurrectionary slave states of the "South" are responsible. Ignore The Constitution. "The insurrectionary slave states of the South, confidently relying as they have always done, Northern intimacy, have contemniously ignored this provision, with the result that these states now have unjustical power over the states for their Rebellion, when for purposes of representation in the House of Representatives and in the Electoral College, they were allowed to count the white population, plus three-fifths, or 60 per cent, of the slave population. To-day they count the white population, and Negroes, in their population, they disfear. In other words they have annexed the entire political power of the Negro, whereas before the Civil War they had only three-fifths of it. Former Slavo States Control. "Though the slaves were freed by the Civil War, the insurrectionary slave states, by nullification of the Constitution, have gained great additional political power to control the destinies of the country and government which they sought to destroy. "As the Negro population is more than one-third of the population of the United States, the person in these states would I have one-third more political power than each white person in other states. If the Fourteenth amendment were not nullified, these tastes would have one-third fewer Representatives than they now have, and would find it impossible to control the House of Representatives, which they have often done." Poison Rum Kills Two and Sends Two Others To Hospita Two Negroes are dead in Brooklyn and two more are in a serious condition at the Kings County Hospital following a house party at 690 Myrtle avenue at which denatured alcohol was served the guests.

Near them lay Etta Sutton of 346 Myrtle avenue; and a man Mrs. Drummond did not know; they were dead. Mrs. Drummond ran to the street screaming and calling for, a policeman. Ambulances were called from St. John's Hospital and the Beth Moses Hospital. Mrs. Harrison and Rock were civilians and the other two bodies were removed to the police. The police found two bottle in the apartment, one of which contained denatured alcohol and the other bootlegged whiskey. LAFAYETTE THEATRE MANAGER STOPS DRAKE & WALKER SHOW AT THE LINCOLN PRES. COOLIDGE URGES CONGRESS TO ENACT ANTI-LYNCHING LEGISLATION President Calvin Coolidge, in his message to the 70th Congress, read in both Houses simultaneously on Tuesday, paid a striking tribute to progress of the Negro in America, denounced the lawlessness of lynching, and declared that Congress ought enact whatever law is possible to put an end to mob activity against the Negro. Under the heading, "The Negro," the message said: THE NEGRO History does not amuse me because to much progress made in the same length of time as that which has been achieved by the Negro race in the United States since the Emancipation Proclamation. They have come up from slavery to be prominent in education, the professions, arts, science, agriculture, banking and commerce. It is estimated that 50,000 of them are on the government. pay rolls, drawing about $50,000,000 each. year. They have been the recipients of Presidential appointments, and their professional ability has attained a sufficiently high plane and commerce. In India the management and control of the great veterans hospital at Tukkeen their conduct has taken high rank. They have shown that they have been worthy of all the encouragement which they have received. Nevertheless they are too often subjected to thoughtless and inconsiderable treatment, unworthy alike of the white-colored races. They have been especially made the target of the foul crime of lynching. For several years these acts have been indiscriminate. In the last year they have shown an increase. Every principle of order and liberty is opposed to this crime. The Congress should enact legislation it can under the Constitution to provide for the elimination. An impressive ceremony will take place in St. Benedict's Church, 342 West 2nd street, on Sunday, December 18 when Monsignor Thomas M.

Labor Leaders of Both Races Are Joined In Conference By Churchmen, Teachers, Professional, Fraternal and Business Men The first Negro labor conference ever held in New York City assembled in the auditorium of the New York Urban League building, 204 West 186th street, on Friday afternoon; December 2 at 2 o'clock, continuing in session until about 5.30, with discussions during that period covering relations of the Negro worker with the Church, the Employer, Industrial Democracy, Education and Workers Education. The conference agenda was under direction of A. Philip Randolph, editor of The Messenger Magazine, and general organizer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porter, and its purpose was announced as being "to awaken interest in the problems of the Negro worker in the American industry, in relation to the issues of work working conditions and the orgained labor movement, and to enlighten public opinion on the aims, objects and methods of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porter." Frazier Miller, Chas. M. Hanson, Dr. Julia P. H. Coleman, Ira D. A. Rid, C. T. A. French, Deputy Assistant Attorney General, Mrs. Cecelia C. Saunders, Miss Layle Lane and Dr. L. H. Faireclough.

The first resolution declared that the porters and maids were seeking through lawful, practical and Labor and the Negro. It was an interesting gathering, representing practically every sectio of ragal activity, with a liberal admixture of representation from labor and liberal organizations of other races. Director Randolph set down for discussion the elements of the labor question as it affects the Negro, under the following headlines: "Negro Worker and the Church" discussed by the Rev Wm. Lloyd Imes. "The Employer and the Negro Worker, discussed by the Rev. Wm. Lloyd Imes. "The Negro Worker and Education" Mitsi Layle Lane, teacher, public school. "Workers Education." Algernon Lee, director, Rand. School of Social Science. "Negro Worker and Fraternalism" Chas. M. Hanson, grand auditor, R. R. O. Elks of World. "The Negro Worker and Industrial Democracy." Dr. Harry W. Laidler, director, League for Industrial Democracy." Keen, Pointed Discussions Interesting and well-thought out dissertations on each subject were listened to, with intent interest by the audience, and in a ten-minute period allotted for general discussion after each address, many questions and suggestions and questions brought vital phases of the subject matter. Particularly interesting were sidelines thrown on the attitude of the American Federation of Labor toward the Negro worker, and the definite charge by Benjamin Stolberg, an authority on lajamaism, that the organization's position in this regard is bad; and a definition of education as it relates to the worker as brought out by queries made by William Pickens and Mrs P. A. Wallace. And in this connection, it was pointed out by Director Lee that both Brookwood School Labor School and Stolberg School Social Science would gladly welcome many Negro students, declaring that the present slim enrollment is not to be attributed to any barrier set up by these institutions. He declared that Negro pupils will be given the most cordial welcome, and that there is ample room for them. Among the discussion taking place in the meeting Hale Bishon, Mr. Stolberg, Mrs. Wallace, Mr. Picken, James H. Hubert, James Lec. Chestnut and others. Randolph: Strikes Keynote The keynote address was made by Director Randolph, in which he set forth the objects hoped to be attained. After the discussions, Mr. Randolph met with the staff for carrying on the movement, ed effort, toward perpetuating this labor, movement, and named a conference committee for the purpose of taking the, matter to the general public and to raise, funds for carrying on the movement. This committee is composed of Frazier Miller, Chas. M. Hanson, Dr. Jilia P. H. Cokeman, Ira De A. Reid, C. T. A. French, Deputy Assistant Attorney General, Mrs. Cecelia C. Saunders, Miss Layle Lane and Dr. L. H. Fairclough. A set of resolutions were read by Secretary Frank Crosswalt dealing with various of the problems confronting the Pullman port of general and cargo labor in general, and trade law mostly adopted. The first resolution declared that the porters and maids were seeking "through lawful, practical and reasonable methods of collective bargaining, to secure a living wage, the regulation of transportation work month of 240 hours, and to abolish the tipping evil as a method of rewarding labor." It set forth that while the Pullman conductors, it has refused similar concessions to the porters, a "frank, unjustifiable and indefensible discrimination." To Support Brotherhood. The conference pledged "moral and financial support to the Brotherhood . . . should it be compelled to strike for these legitimate demands." Another resolution denounced the so-called "Company Union," under its various titles, declaring that the Negro workers are to organize labor movement since it destroys the right of self-organization and stifles the self-expression of the wage earner." The conference urged that all sections of the Negro race "unite to back and support, morally and financially, the fight of every section of the Negro workers in their struggle to organize." Other resolutions decried the unsuccessful use of the Negro worker as a strike-breaker; denounced the use of injunction-producing employing interests; limit liberty of expression and condemned efforts being made by the Interborough Rapid Transit to prevent the A. F. of L. from organizing the motormen, trainmen and other employees of the company, and pledged the conference support to the I. R. T. employees in their fight for recognition as a bona fide union. The regular meeting of porters and maids allied with the Brotherhood was held the same evening at the Hall, West 130th street, with a large attendance, and it was addressed by Alexander Marks, representing Hugh Rraye of the American Federation of labor; Frank, Crosswalth, and A. Philip Randolph. Regional Conference of Empire Federation To Be Held In Rochester Rochester, N.

J.—Former U. S. Senator Joseph S. Frelinghuysen came out on Monday, December 5, with a statement announcing his candidacy for nomination as Senator in the 1928 primaries, giving at the same time a resume of his public service over a period of twenty-two years.

SARI PRICE PATTON *PHONE BRADHURST 0678 110 WEST 136TH ST. : NEW YORK Hours: 9--9 It is thought that this means a tri-connected race for the nomination, as former Governor Edward C. Stokes is already a candidate, and National Committeeman Hamilton F. Kean is expected to get in the fight later on. Senator Frelinghuysen was elected in 1916, defeating the incumbent, Senator James E. Martine, and was in turn defeated five years later by Senator Edwards, the present holder of the seat, who is a candidate for re-election on the Democratic ticket. Senator Frelinghuysen was defeated largely because of his alliance with the dry wing, while Senator Edwards' pledge was to "make New Jersey as wet as the Atlantic Ocean" Supported By Agriculturists. Senator Frelinghuysen is president of the New Jersey State Board of Agriculture, and it is believed he will be strongly supported by the agricultural interests. In his announcement, he declared himself to be in favor of a referendum on prohibition, in accordance with action taken by the last Republican State Convention. He is also in favor of a check to the constantly increasing cost of government and urges a substantial reduction in taxation. He writes his efforts toward securing revision of the present tariff regulations and the removal of the Tariff Commission from political pressure. He said in part: "My record covers a period of twenty-two years of continuous public service. I served from 1905 to 1911 as member and president of the State Senate of New Jersey; as member and president of the State Board of Education from 1915 until my election to the United States Senate in 1916; as United States Senator; from 1917 to 1923 covering the entire crucial period when we were at war; and as president of the State Board of Agriculture, which office I still occupy. Favors Direct Primary. "I believe in the direct primary and the free expression by the members of my party, of their choice. I shall adhere strictly, as in my four previous campaigns, to the limit of all expenditures allowed under the Corrupt Practices Act." While I served in the State Senate I saw the dawn of the progress that brought to our State the direct primaries, commission government, corrupt practices act, civil service, direct vote for United States Senator, child labor legislation, sanitation laws, good roads, pure food legislation, reorganization of the board of agriculture, better school laws, and other reforms in the administration of public affairs, many of which I had the honor to inaugurate. While I was in the United States Senate two important constitutional amendments were adopted, one giving the right of franchise to women, the other prohibiting the manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors. I voted to submit both of these amendments to the State legislatures for ratification or rejection. Favors Dry Referendum. "As I stated before the last Republican State Convention, while prohibition is not a state issue but is distinctly a national question, I am in favor of a referendum in order to ascertain the views of the public on the so-called wet and dry issue in this State. This is the only way to obtain a true gauge of sentiment, not based on an individual candidate's views but on a clearly defined expression of the people. The majority vote of the State Convention as- sembled last June pledged the Republican Party to submit this question to the electorate. I shall act in accord with the result of this referendum, if I am elected to the United States' Senate. To Discuss Serious Problems. "Serious problems of national significance, which directly affect the business interests and public welfare of New Jersey, such as our international relations, immigration, Federal tax reduction, harbor improvements, development of a privately owned and operated American merchant marine under government aid, coal legislation, child welfare, will he discussed fully by me in the course of my campaign. I shall set forth my stand on each and every one of the vital questions confronting us here in this State and nationally. "There are strong, moral forces working for clean and efficient government in New Jersey. Constructive and unselfish party leadership, and a high standard of appointments are the unquestioned need of the present time. The Republican Party in the state must take cognizance of this undercurrent of wide-spread popular feeling, and if it does, a Republican victory is assured "As a candidate for the Republican nomination for United States Senator, I propose to conduct my campaign in the spirit of the direct primary giving the people the opportunity to determine whom they chose to nominate. By direct contact with the people I shall express frankly my views to them, and I trust to have their confidence and support. To the voters my record is an open book. I believe that it warrants my being a candidate with a sincere desire to serve efficiently and constructively. I have endeavored to do in the past, maintaining the high standard that makes for useful and unselfish service to all the people of New Jersey." Dr. Adam's Invention Approved By Patent Com --- Dr. R. Gordon Adams, 10 West 134th street, optometrist, chemist, inventor, director and chief chemist of the Dr. Adams Laboratories and executive vice-president of the Adams Shine-Off Company, has just received from Washington, certificate of letters patent on his invention of Adams' Shine Off and Adams Shine Brush. Eighteen months ago, Dr. Adams, through curiosity, discovered in a garbage can a secret process that will take shine or gloss out of clothing without injury to the fabric—but renovates it instead. He wrote to twenty-four bankers in Wall street, telling them of his discovery and requested an interview. All replied, and the first financier interviewed was a gentleman who served during the late war as a dollar a year man in Washington and was sent to England to represent the government on the Air Craft Conference. After giving several demonstrations he was greatly enthused and convinced of the merit of the invention. He telephoned four of his friends telling them about it and was informed to go ahead and make a deal at once. An agreement was immediately drawn and company formed. The demand for something to remove shine or gloss from clothing without injury to the fabric has been so universal that the men associated with Dr. Adams felt justified ni spending their time and money necessary to educate the public that there is no excuse for any 'one to wear or discard their clothing because it is shiny Considerable sums are being spent in advertising and A. E. Who Has Announced His Candidacy for Senatorial Nomination In 1928 Primaries. the reception and demand especially by the tailors, dressmakers and dry cleaners, surpasses their fondest expectation. The advent of Adams Shine Off has marked the wearer of shiny clothes a careless dresser. Plans are in operation to establish branches in all large cities in every state, Canada, Europe, West Indies, Central and South America. A branch will be opened in England within a few weeks. The management has, within the last few months established a new procedure by having shiny clothing brought mailed, or called for, or are received by the tailors, dressmakers, and dry cleaners from their customers and they in return send their work t the Adams Shine Off factory for deshing. Dr. Adams, informs us that there are two other inventions of great importance now pending. Application for patents are now pending in England, France, Germany Italy and Spain. Dr. Jas. E.

Last year they sat enthralled under the strains of the finest music that we know and this year "history is repeating itself." On Thursday evening, December 1, Mr. Carl Boxill, who for months past has been a member of the cast of "The Desert Song," told the story of the operetta, and sang numbers from it in a most charming and interesting way. On December 15, Mrs. Charlotte Wallace Murray, the distinguished mezzo soprano is going to do "Songs and Folks Songs" for us. On Sunday afternoon, December 4, the subject for our service was one which's creating a great deal of discussion now. Mr. Cifford L. Miller, of the Victory Life Insurance Company, talked on the subject of "Companionate Marriage: in the Light of the Teachings of the Ohl and New Testaments." The soloist for the afternoon was Mr. Lowell Jackson, tenor. The Educational Department offers a good many short courses in various subjects—classes which run a period of weeks, usually eight or ten. In many of these courses new clase are now being formed. This is true of crochet heading, trade embroidery, French flower-making, lamp shades and home decorations, china painting, public speaking and parliamentary law, and tikele classes. A department catalogue giving detailed information may be secured at the information desk. Plans are going ahead for the Christmas party on December 22. Members may secure invitations for their friends. Mrs. Eva T. Parks, Mrs. W. A. Carson, Miss Mildred Burch, Miss Hattie L. Green and Mr. M. W.

She is not dead—she is just away. JAMES WHITCOMB RILEY. Felicia Octovia Puryear of Jericho, L. I. passed away on Saturday, November 19, 1927. Miss Puryear was born in Brooklyn, November 15, 1906, and lived there until nine years ago. During the past nine years, her family have made their home in Jericho. Miss Puryear graduated from the Westbury High School in 1924. The following September she entered Harlem Hospital Training School for Nurses. On the 5th day of last May, she graduated with honors as a nurse. Before the end of the month, Miss Puryear became seriously ill and was taken to the Long Island home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. James Goles, by her mother and aunt. Her aunt, Mrs. Charles Plumb of Los Angeles, California, had arrived a few days earlier to spend the summer with her sister and niece. Before a few weeks had elapsed, Miss Puryear had to be removed to the Farmingdale Sanitarium where she remained, with the exception of a month at home in mid-summer, until her death. Her parents did for her everything possible, that could be done. In spite of her long tedious ill- ness contracted while performing her duty as a nurse, her bright, cheerful disposition massed about her a host of friends who did so much to keep her spirit buoyed up with hope and her courage un- failing. Her former superintendent at Harlem Hospital. Mrs. S. J O'Brien, visited Miss Pururey almost every week of her illness and brought both necessities and luxuries to lessen her suffering and brighten the long hours. She was continually remembered by the entire school, particularly by Miss A. Brewer, assistant to 'Mrs O'Brien, and her classmate. Miss Pururey passed quietly and peacefully to the Great Beyond and was buried in the A. M. E, Zion Cemetery, Westbury, L. I. The funeral service was held in the home of her parents, conducted by the Rev. H. S. Bishop of St. Philip's Episcopal Church, New York City Her friends and relatives paid tribute to her memory with many and varied boral pieces, offers of service and expression of sympathy to her bereaved parents. Three of the many (35) floral pieces, a blanket, chair and heart, were given by members of her Training School many of whom attended the services.

If the vexing political questions may is whether the Solid South governor Smith of New York Democratic candidate for the city in 1928. Sage political objection to the opinion that if it does not exactly want the skier, the politicians of that secreting to accept him as their for the Presidency. Such vetomocrats as former Postmaster Burleson of Texas and former of the Navy Josephus Daniels Carolina appear to have veered more favorable view of the's candidacy. Objections are by the doubting Thomases aser the hardshell Baptists and its of the South can be induced for a candidate who is both a and wet. But this is met by under that the average Southernuld cast a ballot for Beelzebub if he captured the regular nomi- ing the South as still solid even now, we have to deal with the whether his undoubted ability be getter in New York State tend to a presidential test. The acclaim accorded to the Governor's own state and city is largely election of the voters for "Al" a personality. It is not so able administrator of state or the adroit politician, that app their admiration, as it is the end outspoken product of the if New York who occupies the position in the gift of the State applies to voters of all parties nationalities. Particularly is this the Negro voters, although Govith has ignored them in a pony quite as effectively as any in governor since Frank S. cupied the chair. political writer recently contend the chief opposition to Governor's nomination for the Presidency on Republican sources, for the that he is looked upon as dest man to beat, at least East. More optimistic Releaders, such as National ceeman Hilles and State Chair-orris talk of former Justice as being able, to carry New rainst Smith. This is not so long, as Mr. Hughes' strength voters has steadily lessened ran against Wilson. President ex-Governor Lowden of Illin-Secretary Hoover would elicit enthusiasm and, perhaps more on Mr. Hughes. republican assaults on Governor's record as a state executive appear so far to have made any impression on the voters. His finethods may have been faulty, as a Republican legislature that them. To hold him responsi­tive the red light conditions, of the Albany is putting on the Gov'e duties of the local authorities, so more substantial than this I to discredit the Governor with workers. Most dangerous symptom that he been able to discover in the of the presidential bee in theorial bonnet is the South's ac­c of Smith and the latter's ac­c of the South. The Governor's was indicated in a dispatch insacola, Fla., dated November in read: S. Beard, lawyer, received a letter from Gov. Smith of New York pro­gram as a political canard the report New York Executive had refused past to extradite Negroes to the on the ground that they would not trials. Beard said he had heard such reports it took upon himself to investigate. He directly to Albany, getting the reply in absolute harmony with the attitude toward the Negroite. He has maintained abso- lute neutrality, posing as neither friend nor foe, but passing upon such matters as have come before him affecting the race ostensibly without prejudice. Exception might be taken to this latter statement, in his veto of the bill providing for an additional municipal court justice in Harlem, when it was claimed that the veto power was exerted to prevent the election of a Negro as judge. The Governor's attitude has been reflected to some extent in the local Tammany machine, which has soft-pedaled its appeal to Negro voters since the Walker administration came into office. This sep to the Southern Cerberus is undoubtedly good politics, if Smith expects to get support from Southern delegates. But somebody spilled the beans in Chicago in the following fashion, as told in a special to the Herald Tribune: Jack Johnson, former world's champion heavyweight pugilist, is about to break into politics. Democratic leaders, who have tried vainly to obtain a foothold in the solidly Republican Negro tards, have hit him to put Johnson in command of the Democratic forces in the ward and let him work for Governor Smith in the very heart of the Negro belt. It is said the Democrats here were encouraged to take this action because of the success Tammany and Smith have scored in Harlem, New York. Johnson has a large following among his race. The Negro vote here is estimated at 100,000 to 125,000. Evidently Chicago Democrats, have not kept in close enough touch with their New York brethren to perfect their technic in dealing with Negro voters. they should take lessons in carrying water on both shoulders and not let the right hand know what the left hand doeth. Cultivating colored voters in Chicago may alienate the support of delegates from Florida and Mississippi. Governor Smith's Chicago friends have done a dubious service in enlisting the aid of Jack Johnson. Probably the report will be set down as a machination of the Republican enemy to prevent governor Smith's nomination. To paraphrase a departed American ard, "for ways that are dark and tricks that are vain, the politician of all stripes peculiar."

To paraphrase a departed American bard, "for ways that are dark and tricks that are vain, the politician of all stripes is peculiar." HIGH HAT REPUBLICANS. The Standard Union, a lively and aggressive Brooklyn afternoon daily, founded by William Berri and at one time edited by the stalwart Murat Halstead, has been painting a symposium of "what's-wrong-with-the-party" views gathered from Republican workers and voters. This inquest held over the bacle of last November, in which the Republicans saved but one candidate on their ticket, the assemblyman in the seventeenth district, brought out some candid and caustic opinions. Some Republicans bluntly ascribed the causes of defeat to what was termed the high hat attitude of the inner circle of political leaders and high officeholders. As one rate worker put it, the active leaders and workers are humiliated and treated as "doormats" by their own political kin, when they go to them for legitimate favors. Those holding lucrative positions adopt a "holier-than-thou" attitude and refuse to help build up the party by granting reasonable requests that would stimulate the workers. It is often easier to get a political favor done by a Democrat, said one district leader, than to get a high Republican official to grant a request of a similar nature. The latter stand up so straight and stiff that they appear to bend backwards. At all events, this is the reaction produced among the plain party workers, who expect to get some official recognition of their labors. This all sounds very credible in view of the attitude the Republican leaders in Kings County have maintained toward Negro voters, since the days when Lieutenant Governor Timothy L. Woodruff was the recognized county leader. Woodruff was at least accessible and affable, though his promises did not always materialize in deeds. He did not high hat his colored followers, as has been too true of many of his successors. Still, since this high hat attitude has been extended toward the rank and file of the party workers, the colored voters may no longer feel that they have been objects of special discrimination. Among other causes ascribed for the decline of the Republican party in Brooklyn were Millerism, meaning the policy pursued by Governor Nathan Miller in making appointments and refusing to recognize the organization, the influx of Tammany voters to Brooklyn and the failure of Republicans to vote in local elections. Prohibition was also cited as having driven away votes from the Republican ticket. This was corroborated to some extent by the fact that the candidate for county judge who was most outspoken in opposing prohibition, ran ahead of his ticket. The significant fact about this symposium is that the high hat attitude of high Republican office holders, which we had thought was reserved for their treatment of colored voters, should be so hotly resented and denounced by white voters as well. While this attitude has become more pronounced in Brooklyn of late years, perhaps because the perennial officeholders have come to feel that they hold their jobs by divine right, this sentiment is not confined to that borough. There are other sections where the decline of Republicanism would warrant an inquest over the remains. The high hat politician should be retired and the wearers of the derbies, slouches and even caps should be given a chance to restore Republican prestige by treating all voters, on the basis of equal citizenship. OUT-MENCKENING MENCKEN Henry C. Mencken, the editor of the American Mercury, has established a reputation for his acute and incisive analyses of the weaknesses and foibles of his fellow Americans. With rare generosity, Mr. Mencken in the December number of the Mercury, gave an opportunity to George S. Schuyler, to compete with him on his own ground. Under the heading of "Our White Folks," aptly borrowed from Roscoe Conkling Simmons, Mr. Schuyler essays to tell unreservedly what the Negro thinks of white Americans. Aside from his persiflage and smart-cracks, which cheapen the serious side of his article, Mr. Schuyler tells quite a story. Henry C. Mencken, the editor of the American Mercury, has established a reputation for his acute and incisive analyses of the weaknesses and foibles of his fellow Americans. With rare genius, Mr. Mencken in the December number of the Mercury, gave an opportunity to George S. Schuyler, to compete with him on his own ground. Under the heading of "Our White Folks," are hereby borrowed from Roscoe Conkling Simons, Mr. Schuyler essays to tell us, inexpensively what the Negro thinks of white Americans. Aside from his persistence and smart-cracks, which cheapen the serious side of his article, Mr. Schuyler tells quite a story. After summarizing the average writer's view of the Negro, as "a child, shiftless, immoral, primitive, incarcerated odoriferous, inherently musicianically excitable, mentally inferior people with pronounced homicidal tenencies," he endeavors to show that the Negro has a more intimate knowledge of the whites than the whites possess the blacks. This intimate knowledge, claims, tends to destroy any illusion that the darker race may have had as the intelligence, industry, efficiency, morals or morals of the so-called superior race. The serious part of the article, because of its bearing on economic issues, relates to the suspicion and ill-feeling engendered between the black and white working classes, which causes discord to labor organizers and radical according to Mr. Schuyler. He claims that the superior posture of the whites is based on nothing but the fortuitous circumstance of color, but the Negro puts it down to mere ignorance and fear of competition for jobs. Anyhow, the color line keeps black and white workers at odds and prevents the security of labor which might do more for the benefit of both groups. On the other hand Mr. Schuyler finds that Negroes feel more kindly toward the whites of wealth and influence. Because from this class they have obtained a few favors and largesses. "But he adds, "they do not lose sight of the fact that in the face of a group crisis such as a lynching or race riot, they cannot depend upon these upper classords, who invariably desert what the mob heaves into sight, if indeed they do not join it." He then shows how the higher class of whites who control the social and economic life of the country, have allowed all sorts of discriminatory legislation to go unchallenged in the disadvantage of the Negro. Disregarding its flippancies and cheesy criticisms, Mr. Schuyler has written a article that could be read to advantage by every thinking white person in the United States. It contains more than modicum of truth and effectively shares various misconceptions on the relations of the two races. Plain speaking if this sort should lead to a better understanding on both sides. But how could Mr. Mencken allow outsider to rival him in cause criticism and cynical candor? This is a example of magnanimity rarely found among magazine editors. After summarizing the average white writer's view of the Negro, as "a childish, shiftless, immoral, primitive, incurably religious, genially incompetent, incredibly odoriferous, inherently musical, chronically excitable, mentally inferior people with pronounced homicidal tendencies," he endeavors to show that the Negro has a more intimate knowledge of the whites than the whites possess of the blacks. This intimate knowledge, he claims, tends to destroy any illusions that the darker race may have had as to the intelligence, industry, efficiency, honor or morals of the so-called superior race.

Both the casual visitor and the earnest student of Harlem conditions agree that the most patent need of that section is the establishment and successful operation of retail business. There have been numerous ventures made in this line by ambitious and energetic members of the race, who have invested their capital in such enterprises, but most of them failed because of lack of the necessary experience in buying and selling. It has therefore become apparent that more than small capital and great ambition are needed for such enterprises. Both the casual visitor and the earnest student of Harlem conditions agree that the most patent need of that section is the establishment and successful operation of retail business. There have been numerous ventures made in the time by ambitious and energetic members of the race, who have invested the capital in such enterprises, but most them failed because of lack of the necessary experience in buying and selling it has therefore become apparent that In starting a retail business of any kind, the promoter must know his line of goods. He must know how to buy to advantage, so as to be able to com- pete with others in the same trade. He must also know how to attract customers and how to serve them so that they may be induced to come again. The old saying that a pleased customer is the best kind of advertising has a germ of truth in it, though advertising of a more extensive scale, is necessary to build up a volume of trade. The first step of the promoter of any kind of business should be to acquire a thorough knowledge of the business that he intends to start. This can be learned by studying methods of a successful merchandiser and applying them to the new enterprise. It is therefore incumbent upon the starter of a new enterprise to get his practical experience by serving his time as employee in an establishment of the sort he desires to undertake. This is not so easy as it may sound, although if the pro- Discussing the utility of women's clubs the Birmingham Reporter quoted Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, the noted suffrage leader, as saying: "Nine tenths of the women's clubs in the country ought to be disbanded and the energies of their members devoted to the worth while causes of the other 100,000 clubs." It continued: At a recent meeting of a ladies' club the subject: Whether the Negro Woman Should Register to Vote"; was debated. The debate proved to be a thought provoking question which stimulated a study of the effects of the suffrage amendment. The reaction was a thoroughly wholesome one since it raised the question of a fully prepared feminine citizenship and emphasized the necessity for intelligent preparation to participate in affairs that should be of more than absorbing interest to those women who are minded to make their advantages count. It is yet to be seen that politics will be better or cleaner by the advent of women; but, as in the case of prohibition, the experiment must run the course of time necessary for the adjustment of the public mind to a new order of actual affairs on the surface with sufficient clearness to the lay mind. It is not reasonable to doubt that the elimination of much fancy and some romance from the club life of women will be a great factor in the early and permanent success of the suffrage experiment. In another column Editor Adams urged the Negroes of Birmingham to register and increase the voting strength of the group. Was it it in Birmingham that a woman of the race was arrested for demanding registration a year ago? The Arkansas Survey of Little Rock does not take much stock in what it calls "Eleventh Hour Repentance." It said. Senator Borah of Idaho, active champion of the 18th amendment, comes out with a belated statement that he is in favor of the enforcement of the 14th and 15th amendments. Senator Borah is a receptive candidate for the Republican nomination for the presidency. Senator Edge of New Jersey, an avowed wet, made him come across with this statement. Senator Borah has been one of the powerful influences that has blocked any practical expression of the party to which he belongs about the enforcement of the two cardinal amendments to the Constitution. He has been a zealous champion of the 18th amendment, but has opposed the enforcement of other amendments which are just as sacred as any other amendments to the constitution. It must be remembered that Senator Borah was born in Mississippi and it is not to be wondered at that he holds lightly the enforcement of the 14th and 15th amendments. We must necessarily look with suspicion at eleventh hour conversion. It is significant that The Corn Belt Committee which has sponsored the McNary-Haugen farm relief bill found it necessary to refer to Senator Borah as "The pretended Friend of the farmer" and who has become "The carping critic." In like manner based on the senator's record of his attitude to colored men and the franchise we must feel that he is the pretended friend of the 14th and 15th amendments. The Negro press has become more critical of late of those Republican statesmen who profess one thing and act another, as in the case of enforcing the suffrage amendments and acting on anti-lynching legislation. Frank A. B. Hall had an open letter in the Cincinnati Union in which he used nearly a column of space to express his appreciation of the support given him in his effort to be elected as a member of the City Council. Among other things he said: As a separate and distinct group of people, not by choice but by compulsion, we are not receiving a square deal in this city, and the only motor is determined to learn the trade he may secure an entrance on the ground floor which may enable him to learn the business from there up. With this object in view, it would be well for the race in Harlem to concentrate their efforts upon the task of securing openings for bright young men and women in the various retail establishments, into which they turn the bulk of their earnings to buy their daily necessities. Through the civic, religious and maternal organizations, the bulk of this trade could be given to those dealers who are willing to give positions to colored help in return for colored trade. This would be the first step on the road to economic independence. Let us try to take the first step without further delay or wasting money and time in further futile experiments. THE EDITORS INGS OF OTHER EDITORS way that we will get an improved condition is to elect our own representative and a man of our race to the law making body. The nine candidates elected are a fine body of men, a majority of them I know personally, and I am sure that we will give the city a splendid administration. Our efforts on this occasion were, without party designation or party indorsement. We ran as a man of the race and sought the support of the race, and though we have failed in our purpose, I am yet here and subject to the will of my people. We must gird up our loins and prepare for the future. We cannot wait for party indorsement, and if we receive it, we cannot rely on party support. Mr. Hall evidently was not cast down by his defeat, but sounds eager to continue the fight. That is the spirit that eventually wins. Referring to the notoriously rotten car service furnished by railroads in the South for colored passengers, the Cleveland Gazette said: The astonishing information, published elsewhere in this paper, in a letter from the secretary of the interstate commerce commission, to the effect that the U. S. Congress has not enacted legislation compel "jinj-crow" railroads in the South to furnish first-class transportation to holders of first-class tickets, ought to move all of our national organizations to immediate action which will result in the enactment of such legislation, just as soon as possible. We must see to it that that august body "sees fit to exercise jurisdiction," just as soon as possible. "Competition between carriers" fails, it seems, to induce them to render good service." Therefore, the need of prompt action upon the part of our national organizations. Congressman Martin B. Madden of Chicago has already promised to aggressively interest himself in the matter. As the duties of the Interstate Commerce Commission included the prohibition of "unjust discrimination and undue or unreasonable preference or advantage in transportation rates or facilities," the letter of its secretary would indicate an evasion of responsibility, to say the least. Opposing an issue of school bonds providing for the expenditure of $1,700,000 for public school extensions meant only for white children, the Oklahoma City Black Dispatch said: Under the laws of Oklahoma the Negro cannot use for school purposes any money derived from taxation except a specially laided "two mills" that provides the inadequate scant school plant upon which the black child must depend for an education. This law is different from any other in the United States in its virtuousness, and brings about a condition such as the Negroes of this city now face. This bond issue will saddle on the back of every tax payer a burden from which Negroes will derive nothing in return. What should be done in this emergent situation, from among the various groups, preferably the Business League or the N. A. A. C. P., would be to exact a promise from the Chamber of Commerce that they will lay the big stick on the county commissioners and Excise Board next year and require them to give Negroes an adequate high school and other school equipment in return for assuming this extra burden of taxation. There may be other ways to bring about this result, but unless there is some way to profit by some similar plan, the school item should be voted down so far as Negroes are concerned. Wherever the system of separate schools obtains, it becomes necessary to content persistently for an adequate division of school funds. Separate schools entail inferior educational facilities, in most cases. William D. Edwards, an Evening high school student, writing in the St. Louis Argus, makes a plea for putting business, industrial, and com mercial, on an equal basis with education and art. He said: "The greatest, most successful and essential business in America, in fact, in the world, the grocery business, is almost totally neglected by the Negro in St. Louis. The grocery store is an indispensable factor in human progress and welfare. The grocery store is visited more than any other store. It supplies the world with the bread of natural life. There never will be a time when the grocery store will cease to be the most popular and the Greeks were to close their stores for a while, suffering would be indescribable among Negroes. There are between twenty-five and one-hundred thousand Negroes here, and there are less than five grocery stores owned and operated by Negroes. About $500,000 are spent weekly for food; more than $5,000 are spent weekly by the 200 or more colored pressing shops to cleaning plants which no Negro owns, and in which no Negro can find employment." This student of existing conditions did not expect much to be done individually, but insisted that collectively we can and must do something to remedy the situation. According to the Hartford Observer, the Charles Gilpin Dramatic Club is planning a Little Negro playhouse for Connecticut's capital. It said: After the first of the year, Mrs. Hallie Gebart Reynolds (white) is to do the coaching of the Charles Gilpin Dramatic Club, Mrs. Reynolds is to direct the production of "In Abraham's Boom" and "The No Count Boy," by Paul Green. A Hindic poem written especially for the Gilpin Club, by Lindley Hubbell, will also be presented.

The native Negro playwriters do not appear to be conspicuous on this program. The least that now can be done is an official investigation into the cause of Tiger Flowers death as the result of a minor operation by a specialist in a N. Y. sanitarium—Cleveland Gazette. It looks like New York hospitals are ideal places for prominent race men and women to die. Florence Mills died after a minor operation is the report. Well what about the death of Tiger Flowers?—St. Louis Argus. In the recent municipal election in New York City Mr. Fred R Moore, able editor of The New York Age, was elected to the Board of Idermen. We presume his election was due largely to the support of, our own group. If so, it is timely recognition of the splendid service Mr. Moore is rendering the race through the columns of his paper—Charlotte (N. C.) Africo-American Presbyterian. By DR. M. ALICE ASSERSON the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association Making The Most Of Headaches Headaches may be valuable aids in keeping well. The statement may seem questionable, but headaches are really warnings that something is wrong, and so they may help us avoid serious illness if we check the trouble before it has gone too far. Someone once said that her mirror, if used carefully, was her 'best friend'. It showed her her poor points and helped her make the most of her good ones, in order to overcome the bad ones. The same may be true of headaches. None of us want them, but, if we do have them sometimes they may warn us of other trouble before it is too late. Headaches are often caused by stuffy air, too long application to close work, constipation or indigestion. We can usually tell when the headache is caused by one of these causes, can remedy the condition by getting the cause. However, frequent headaches, without apparent cause, should be sufficient reason to make one go to his doctor. They may from defective eyesight, sinus infection, kidney disease, anaemia and many other causes. Your doctor will give you a complete examination and proper treatment to correct the condition. Do not neglect the "disease" of a headache. Find the cause immediately and take treatment to correct it. You may save yourself much suffering in later life. Take Care Of Your Eyes Most of us will agree that our eyes are one of our most innate post sessions. They help us our daily living, they help us take care of us, they enable us to enjoy the beauty of the world about us, they permit us to see and know the people we love. They cannot be replaced by artificial ones that are of any use to us, as artificial teeth and even artificial legs may be. Hence it is most important that we protect our eyes and our eyesight. One of the essential things is to save them from unnecessary strain. Parents should teach their children when they go to school to use their eyes wisely. The light should come from the side rather than from the back or directly in front of one. When a person is writing the light should come over the left shoulder, of right handed persons in order not to have the shadow from the hand fall where one is writing. Too constant application to very close work such a sewing, embroidering, reading or studying, is a strain on the eyes. These should not be indulged in too continuously. This is especially true of young children. Peraps should learn to give their eyes a rest now and then by looking away from their close work for a few moments. Rest for the eyes, properly fitted glasses if they are needed, and sufficient sleep at night are important in saving the eyes from strain. If you have frequent headaches, or any cause to think of your eyes may be under too much of a strain, consult a good eye specialist or an oculist and have him examine your eyes. Sleep Is Important To Health Poets seem to have a liking to sing praises to restful 'cep. You will find verses on the joys of pleasant sleep and verses on the distress resulting from insomnia, in the works of almost every poet. Perhaps in the first days of your youth when sleep was natural and regular, you wondered why it should be given so much attention. But, if you have ever been unable to sleep, when you needed it or wanted it, you know why its pleasures have been extolled. Everyone needs a sufficient amount of sleep to keep in good form and at his best physically. The average person requires from eight to ten hours a night. If he looses some one night, he should make up for the loss by going to bed the next night at an earlier hour to get more sleep the following night. See that you get a sufficient amount every night to a quiet, well ventilated room. Regular rest will keep your general resistance high. You will be better able to resist disease. You will feel more fit physically and work, mentally to carry on your daily. If you have difficulty in sleeping, often a warm bath just before going to bed will prove conductive to sleep. Sometimes a glass of milk especially warm milk, will make you go to sleep more readily. If insomnia persists, in spite of these 'sple measure, consult your physician. A Needless Menace A Needless Menace By HELENA L. WILLIAMS A still very real mence to the public health is the offensive and unnecessary habit of spitting in the streets, that it is, unnecessary is certain ... because mence to the public health is the offensive and unnecessary habit of spitting in the streets. That it is unnecessary is certain, because few gentlemen and practically no women ever indulge in the habit. There are times when the mouth needs to be cleared, but that is one of the purposes for which handkerchiefs were invented. Bacteriologists discovered years ago that the gerns of tuberculosis, influenza, as well as numb colds, are contained in most human sputum. When deposited on the streets, sputum is easily carried into the home, and there the gerns endanger the health of every member of the family. Children are particularly susceptible to infection and it si today universally accepted that among the crowded population of our large cities scarcely any who reach adult life escape some form of infection. So long as the physical resistance remains strong enough to keep the germs from multiplying and attacking the lungs people who do not develop active disease and fortunate illness is the case more often than not. Modern psychology teaches us that the desire to spit is an expression of personality that subconsciously considers itself to be inferior, towards a world that he regards as his superior. Feeling no other resource within himself for asserting genuine superiority, he resorts to a gesture of contempt such a expectoration. If, to offset this, spitting were as widely recognized a mark of titling as eating with ones knife and danger to the public from tuberculosis would be greatly minimized. In habit, has for years been a vital problem of the National Tuberculosis Association and its 1,500 affiliated associations. They will conduct their twentieth annual Christmas seal sale in December. Will you help to fight promiscuous spitting?

CHURCH ACTIVITIES IN GREATER NEW YORK Grace Church of Harlem The last: Communion of the year 1927 was celebrated at Grace church last: Sunday morning. The pastor spoke on "The Province of singing in Christian Experience." The choir sang up to its fine form in added greatly to the spiritual atmosphere.

The lecture course for teachers of the church school will contain, among others, the following educators: Dr. George E. Haynes, Mrs. Nettie Terry, James H. Hubert, Mrs. Mabel Bullard, Miss Mae Harves, J. E. Reil is the newly elected student of Church school will congenial at 1:15 p.m. m. School reorganization will take place next Sunday. The adult Bible class to be in charge of Mr. Hubert will be set up and class work will begin December 18. The annual business meeting of Grace Church, took place last Tuesday night at the church. The social committee in charge of Mrs. Ewa T. Parks served dinner before the hour of meeting. Reports and election of offices, adoption of the budget and the church program for 1928 were items that were considered by the church. The funeral of Mrs. Ada Patterson, wife of Wm. I. Patterson, of 150th street and Seventh avenue was held on Thursday as I. p. m. from Grace Congregational Church. Refuge Church of Christ Elder R. C. Lawson, the pastor, filled the pulpit all day Sunday; in the morning he preached from Matthew 14:31, "O thou of little faith, wherefore didst, thou doubt?" These are the words of Jesus to Peter when He came to them walking on the water, while the ship was tossed with the waves by a contrary wind. Pastor Lawson brought out some striking points in this message: beginning with the tragic death of an oath, rather, because he did not acknowledge he was wrong. Many John Baptist by Herod because of want to take back his word, nor people of o-day are bound by the institution of destruction, because they will not take back what they have said or acknowledge that they were wrong. But when they brought word to Jesus of the death of John. He went apart, into a desert, place alone. Soon the multitude was come unto Him and He healed the sick, fed the famished, even five thousand men—beside women and children, for forth His Majesty. He did the disciples to take shin and go to the other side while He sent the multitude away. "Strange to say, they could not cross, that small lake without encountering a storm. This shows us that whenever one starts to do to something for the Lord, that they may expect opposition. It would not be a fight if we did not have the enemy on the ground, that when the enemy would like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him. Isaiah 59:19. At the evening service, Elder Lawson preached from Titus 1:1, "Paul a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ according to the FAITH of God's elect, and the acknowledging of the truth is after godiness. He emphasizes the God elect and the acknowledging of the truth that every one might understand the way of life, and seek to be saved. Seven were baptized. Elder R. C. Lawson, the pastor, filled the pulpit all day Sundays. At the morning service he preached from Luke 17:18. "There are not found that returned to give a glory to God, save this stranger" (1 Corinthians 15:18). Tribute is shown in the ONE who returned to give glory to God. This episode in the life of Jesus narrated here is a lesson in gratitude. Jesus passing through Samaria and Galilee on the business, of His Father, when cries are heard upon him: "Jesus Master? have mercy on me? have tar off a group of men afflicted with leprosy. We learn from the scriptures that leprosy is a disease mordredd of all others, contagious and offensive, there fore foreside and to be isolated from the fellowship of others. Lonely, hopeless, abandoned from the city and inhabitants, these men were left alone in the affliction, which was death. But, some way or at some time, they had heard of this man Jesus, and had faith in Him Jesus was minded to pass by that way, for He knew beforehand that they were wise and they cried unto Him and said, "Jesus, Master, have mercy on all of us," and then he, "He said, "go show yourselves to the priests," and it came to pass that as they went they were cleansed. And One of them turned back with a loud voice glorified God and down at His feet, giving thanks; and he said, "Were there not ten cleansed but where are he nine?" Pastor Law-on gave a very touching description of the drawing power of God to those in need, and how he is touched with the feelings of infirmities, of which were the pity of pity, love and strength to strengthen him who by faith call upon Him out of broken and contrite hearts. The purpose of Jesus was to new forth His Divinity, and leave Him a witness of His Maj- esty, which he Did. but only DRE returned to give Him glory, what blessing and favor came that one who returned. He re- ceived the "fellow" appearance. seal of Jesus. They were only cleansed when spoken to by the Lord at the first, but the ONE was made WHOLE who returned to give God thanks. There is an enobling influence in being grateful—and thankful for anything, it gives a magnanimity of soul and character. The Elder likened a ungrateful people to the nine to people who have received kindness, and favors from a friend, but never once stop to make known or testify their gratitude. The evening service was blessed 13:30 Lawson spoke from St. John 13:40 Mother Zion Church Notwithstanding the heavy storm of snow and sleet, a good number of the members and friends of Mother Zion Church found their way to the house of worship. Being Bible Sunday, the pastor preached upon "The Authority. and Value of the Bible," using as his theme, "The Book That Has Changed the Bible." At the close of his discourse four persons united with the church. Junior Church services were conducted in the lecture room at 10:30 a.m. Baptism and communion were administered. Church School was largely attended at 2 o'clock. At 4 p. m., the Lyceum hour, a special program was rendered under the auspices of Clas No. 7, C. A. Jordon, leader.

C. Price, Lyceum, Program under the direction of Leon, S. Adger, 8 p.m. baptism and holy commun Meditation by Rev McNeil Monday, December 12, second quarterly conference First Emmanuel Church At th' 11 o'clock services Sunday, Pastor Bolden preached from the following text. "Then opened be their understanding, that they might unite" 24:43 "Theme: "Our Lord the Emmanuel Opening the Understanding." Pastor Bolden said: The text itself is a great subject that gives plenty of food for thought. Therefore as this is Bible Sunday, among the Protestant and evangelical denominations there are some few ideas, that may be helpful to students of the Bible or sacred scriptures and to the loyal believers in the disciples of our Lord the Emanuel According to the testimony of the gospel writers our Risen Lord Jesus Christ the Emanuel had been demonstrating to His Apostles and Disciple the truth of His bodily resurrection. They had been made to understand by the materialization and dematerialization of Himself in those acts of either that there was an act of perfect divine living, who by conversation and acts of eating, walking and eternal power over natural forces and death itself, was an example of what they might become if they would continue to grow obedient to the Father's will in Him; and loyal to Him, as subjects in His kingdom, and receive and be filled with the Holy Spirit. Since they were so well acquainted with Him as a child, a young man and a master rabbi; and since they had seen their material hopes of His rulership as a Messiah of the Jews upon the throne of David blasted by His crucifixion and death, and now they observe that while He appears at the time to be the same Jesus according to the sacred writings of their fathers and the prophets; because of His vanishing propensities and sudden appearances, they are puzzled and confused as to His reality and His purpose. Therefore, in the hope of Him after days upon earth and in the land and in mittently in their conscious mind He takes them on a journey that they knew not 'where, but He knew, it was the Mount" of His Ascension. And the recorder of the journey says "then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures." While in the flesh He had gently rebuked the distinguished rabbis in these words, "We starch the scriptures for in them we think ye have eternal life, but these are they that testify of me." Hence, if these distinguished rabbis did not understand the scriptures, certainly it could not be expected that these unlearned, daily toilers, though they had been selected by our Lord Jesus Christ the Emmanuel, could understand the scriptures, or His person and place in the world of humanity. Misunderstanding in homes, communities, in the social, religious, industrial, and political life of the state, of the nation, and the peoples of humanity, has always been the basis of confusion, convention, quarrels, murders, and wars. The only person who can open individual, genetic, civil, nation and humanity understand that they might have a true constitution of the sacred teachings and thoughts of the nations of the world and a realization that our Lord the Emmanuel is the Word that became flesh and dwelt among us, and that the sacred teachings of races and nations are the lights upon the presumed way, truth and life, is the Emmanuel. At 2 p. m. the Sunday school was opened by the pastor. A review of the lesson was given. At 4 p. m. the Literary Society convened, William Bridges—holding the Forum; special speaker, Rev J. C.

Only Score Of Game Came When Atlanta Fumbled Ball On Wet Field TUSKEGEE WINS SOUTH'S TITLE BY BEATING A. U. Only Score Of Game Came When Atlanta Fumbled Ball On Wet Field TUSKEGEE WINS BY. BEATIN Atlanta, Ga.—In a sloppy field with mud ankle deep, Atlanta University and Tuskegee began their long-looked-for struggle on Spiller's Field before a throng of shivering fans. Atlanta received the kick and went by 'plunges into Tuskegee territory. Then Tuskegee did the same thing for Atlanta, but when Tuskegee kicked Atlanta fumbled and lost the ball. The second quarter opened with Tuskegee having the ball within Atlanta's five yard line. After three plunges she put it over for the only scoring of the game. The second half was a repeated back and forward movement in the mud and rain. In the first quarter, Tuskegee had the best of it but in the third quarter, Atlanta clearly was the better. The second and fourth quartets were about an even struggle. Four times in the game Atlanta held Tuskegee like a vice for downs and three times she ripped the Tuskegee line for long gains only to lose the slippery ball on fumbles. McPherson, S. Jones, Robinson, Whedbee, Stanley and Clay were the outstanding players for Atlanta, and for Tuskegee it was Shanklin, Bailey and Wooten who stood out. Stevenson did not come up to commentations, but he played a good game nevertheless. COACH MARTIN PICKS ALL-STAR C.I.A.A. TEAM Va.

WHITE NEW YORK INTELLIGENTZIA BRAVES WINTER'S FIRST BLIZZARD TO PAY TRIBUTE AT SHRINE OF MME. EVANTI Mine, Billian Evanti, who, in private life, is Lillian Evans Tibbs, made her second appearance in the past three seasons before a New York audience when, on Sunday night, December 4, she sang from the stage of the Blijon Theatre, 209 West 45th street, under the management of Richard Copley. A storm which raged all day, the first blizzard, bringing several miles of sleet and snow, propelled by a bitter wind, assuming proportions of a gale, prevented many from coming out, but it was a most distinguished audience that was present to greet the charming cantatrice. In fact, it was made a gala event by the intelligentzia and the social elite, several groups having all the carmarks of being specially arranged going to the recital the significance of an operatic first night. Mine. Evanti was not in her best voice, due, perhaps, to the inclement weather conditions, or to weariness from a taxing, recital tour, and this brought at time a slight harshness to the tone quality and what had the appearance of occasional effort in tone production. But the singer's exquisite artistry minimized these disadvantages, and enabled her to give to her performance the stamp of vocalistic authority. She has advanced into the coloratura ranks, and several of her offerings afforded opportunity for bravura singing. And it was in this type of song that she displayed the extent of her vocal development. In the "Shadow Song" ("Ombra leggiera") from Meyerbeer's opera, "Dinorah' Evanti sang as though inspired. The trills were brilliantly executed, and the flute obligatos, played with finished skill by George Purcell, were not one whit truer in initiation than were the bird-like notes coming from her throat in a glittering cascade of sound. Throughout the program there was the most marked fidelity to it, lower, middle and upper registers, and to this was added, in the voice, a thrilling lucidity that charmed. Nowwithstanding the dominance of operatic arias, to which may be added the Coleridge-Taylor air from "Hiawatha's Wedding Feast," Mine, Evanti displayed unusual sympathy, with resoutant resources, in singing two Negro Spirituals, and in the rendering of several simple lays as encores. The program opened with the Handel air, "Care Selve", from the little-known opera, "Atalanta," which was sung with delightful tenderness followed by Campra's "Chanson du Papillon" (Song of the butterfly) and the Mozart aria, "Die entfuhrung aus dem Seral." In the latter number, the taxing and trying florid passages were handled with authority. Then followed the "Shadow song." The third-group included the Spirituals, "The Creuxfixion," with harmonic arrangement by J. Rosamond Johnson, and "Steal away" by Harry T. Burleigh, with "Song to the moon" by Ballantine and "Joy" by Winter Watts. "One of the most interesting numbers programmed opened the fourth group, the "Air du feu" (Song of the Fire) by the modernistic and highly sophisticated French composer, Ravel, from his opera, "L'Enfant et les Sortileges". Written in the most ultra and cubistic style, the singer is required to achieve some unusual vocal gymnastics by reason of the odd and difficult tone intervals, and to thus is to be added the onus of entangling phrases and attacks. And it was one of the singer's best offerings of the evening. Other numbers in this group were a "Bercuse" by Marguerite Canal-Paternal by Strawinsky, and "Spring had come" from Coleridge-Taylor's setting by Longfellow's Indian trilogy, "Hiawatha." The final vocal offering was the scene from Verdil's opera, "La Traviata," first act, giving the recitative and aria, "Ah, fors e l'un" (The One of Whom I Dreamed), including the second part, "Sempre libera" (I'll fulfill the round of pleasure) The piano accompaniments were played by Miss Una Venie of Washington, who displayed technical efficiency and was sympathetically satisfactory. In addition, Miss Venue played as a piano solo, next preceding the "Traviata" aria, the Coleridge-Taylor transcription for the pianoforte of the American Negro Spiritual, "I'm troubled in mind." It was a commendable performance. BERNERDINE MASON, CONTRALTO, IN SOMBERLY ARTISTIC PROGRAM IN N. J. AUDITORIUM BEFORE SMART AUDIENCE Wallace Hall, the beautiful auditorium located in the Y. M. C. A. building on Halsley street, Newark, N. J., was the gathering place of one of the smartest assemblages of the season on the occasion of the recital appearance of Burnerdene Mason, contralio, on Wednesday evening, November 30. Mme. Mason, who studied singing with Wilson Lamb in his Orange, N. J., studio had made her New York debut at. For this occasion the singer offered a program that lacked some. For tris occasion, the singer offered a program that lacked somewhat of symmetry and which would have been improved by a different arrangement. In fact, there was a distinct trend towards melancholy and gloom, with few light spots. The numbers used were calculated to reveal the rich depths and sombre coloring of the singer's voice; but it is possible that the auditors might have enjoyed the recital to a greater degree had there been some lighter offerings to relax the tension. In the third and fourth groups, a different arrangement of the numbbers would have helped matters. The singer offered two Spirituals arranged by Burleigh and Fisher's arrangement of the Largo from Dvorak's New World Symphony, with the latter number ending the third group. This would have been bettered by a reversal in the grouping, with "Goin' Home", the Largo arrangement, first, and the Spirituals, "Every time I feel the Spirit" and "Wade in the water" last. And the fourth and final group would have been improved by singing Lalo's "Captive" first, with the "Samson et Delila" aria, "My heart at thy sweet (not "dear" as programmed) voice" as the closing numbers. Notwithstanding these criticisms of the program itself, only praise can be given the singer's art. The voice was unusually vibrant and sonorous, with ringing clarity that was especially agreeable. The gracious personality of the singer, who wore a striking gown, fashioned, so far as these masculine eyes could tell, from white and black velvet, gave a delightful air to her appearance on the stage, and however humbrious may have been the vocal offerings, there was a charming, and entrancing grace in the singer's men and attitude toward her audience. The vocal offering included the Page song, "Give ye, gay lords," from the Meyerbeer opera, "Gli Ugonotti"; two Technikowsky songs, "Why" and Farewell"; an air from, Verdi's "Il Trovatore," "Stride la vampa," Debussy's "Il pleure dans mon coeur," "Amour viens ader" from Saint Saens' "Samson et Delila"; and the groups already mentioned. The piano accompaniments were played by Cora Wynn Alexander, whose careful and painstaking work added much to the enjoyment of the program. This pianist is a conscientious, sympathetic musician with simple, technical equipment, and she gives splendid support to the singer. The recital was under the personal management of Wilson Lamb, and young men of the Musical Art Forum were ushers. See page 3 for Special Subscription Offer.

EDWIN COATES Piano Composition Harmony Ear Training Piano Composition Harmony Ear Training 139 W. 136th St. New York City MELI DIELIAN EVANITI Whose New York Recital Was a Social Event. MUSIC NOTES Clarence Cameron White, violinist and composer, head of the Department of Music at West Virginia College Institute, came to New York Sunday last to attend the recital by Mme. Lillian Evanti at Bijou Theatre. He was in company with his son, William, who is a member of the "Porgy" company now playing downtown. Mr. White had a unique experience while in Chicago recently to play, in a joint recital with Hazel Harrison, pianist. Mme. E. Evanti and the Fisk Jubilee Singers. After the concert he approached by a young man whose personality was dinely familiar, but not to the point of idification. This young man introduced himself as "Gordon," and asked Mr. White to come to his home for a short while. Promoters of the concert had arranged a social for the artists, so Mr. White, in accepting the stranger's invitation, had to stipulate that it must necessarily be brief. "Taxying to" "Gordon's home, the artist: guest was welcomed by Mrs. Gordon, and then it was that Mr. White discovered that his hot host was none other than Jack Gordon, concert master of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. And another surprise developed when Mr. Gordon opened a music cabinet and disclosed that he had in his library a number which Mr. White had written for the violin, and imparted to her anation that he was using the colored composer's latest number, "Levice Dance," in his concert recitals. Mrs. Gordon served the guest and her husband with a tasty Darch supper and Concertmaster Gordon gave his latest photograph, suitably autographed, as a memento of the occasion. Mme. Jessie Zackery, coloratura soprano, went to Washington on December 4 to appear in a joint recital with Clarence Cameron White, violinist, under auspices of the Samuel, Coleidge-Taylor Choral Society in the auditorium of the Armstrong Technical High School. Mr. White is authority for the statement that Mme. Zackery's work on this occasion was superb. She sang 17th century songs by Handel and Purcell, another by Derolesi, German lieder by Schubert and Schumann an aria from Verdi's opera "Alida" modern art songs by W Smith and Ouller, and Soirings by Hall Johnson and Laurence Brown. Andrades Lindsay was at the piano for Mme. Zackery. The annual New Year's Music icate at the West 135th street Y. M. C. A. will be held on Monday, January 2, and the artists to appear are Richard P. Harrison, dramatic reader; Olive P. Hopkins, dramatic somran; David L. Martin, cellist; Sonoma C. T- ley, pianist, and Lorenzo Franklin Dyer, accompanist.

A goodly number were present and gave the speaker a most cordial reception. Musical numbers were given by Oscar Brooks, tenor, and Matthew Jackson, basso, who sang 'Negro Spirituals, and Mrs. Cora Wynalex Alexander, pianist, who played two Coleridge-Taylor transcriptions of Negro themes, "Deep River" and "I'm troubled in mind." Josephine Harreld In Pianoforte Recital Atlanta, Ga.—Josephine Harreld, child pianist, daughter of Prof. Kemper Harreld, head of music department at Morehouse College, and Mrs. Claudia White Harreld, appeared in recital in Morehouse College Chapel on Friday evening, Maryland, Doris Dobbs,nezzo-soprano and Master Sloan Blocker jr., violinist.

ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS By PERCIVAL OUTRAM Hughie Woolford, president of the Apex Musical Bureau, the controlling factor of the Clef Club is about to resign as president. Very possibly, when this reaches the reader, Hughie's resignation will have been received by the Apex. Mr. Woolford has been president of the Apex since April, 1927, and has been a loyal member of the Clef Club nearly ever since its birth. He is perfectly aware of its weaknesses and its strength. Hughie has been, for more than a decade been independent of the Clef Club or the Apex as a means of being given a job, for he has succeeded in getting and keeping a host of customers who are regularly calling on Hughie for an orchestra for their social functions. Hughie is a pianist of no ordinary merit. Added to this he is an entertainer, therefore a whole band in himself, and when one of his orchestra is not on the job you can see Hughie ducking into the subway with his bag of up-to-date songs, on the way to some prominent hotel or private residence to entertain some of the "400," which constitutes the majority of his customers. It is told of him that recently, while playing an engagement for one of his elite patrons, a courtesee, herself a pianist of the first rank, was so impressed by Hughie's rendition of popular numbers that overtures were made which have resulted in Hughie's being enraged to teach the countess the intricacies of jazz. Well, to get back to the Anex question. When Hughie was elected president every one in the Chelf Club and the Anex knew the abovementioned facts: knew Hughie had a good business of his own, and that it could not be for gain that he accepted the position. Business of the organization had deteriorated dreadfully, not only due to current causes, but to internal discussion. Here was a chance Woodford forced to do his hit to put the club back on a good saving basis and restore its prestige. Hughie states he took up his duties with cultivation, found that certain players not up to the standard were being hooded in reference to better men. He referred especially to Johnsons, Truing to correct this evil he found himself made a target with straw in the form of bricks burgh thrown at the form of bricks burgh Prospectus? No. Insurance is not suitable but after a certain age there is no recompensation. Uphill tried to set the organization to give select converts to try to reason the classes of those who had formerly been patients of the club tried to induce the members to promise to purchase another club site to replace the premises bought by the city tried in various ways and means to make the organization look forward in a progressive business like way to better their conditions.

For_Full Particulars Write To Dora Hobb's Manufacturing Co. 224 West-141st Street New York City NAME RO MARK OF QUALITY character and personality and is Some twenty odd years ago, Thomas Washington, who was then a veteran in the Pulliman service, moved with his family, from Jacksonville, Fla., to Brooklyn, N. Y., his present home. The family, consisted of himself, wife and several children, one of whom is named Joseph. At time of the nutrition, he remarked to an acquaintance that the South was good enough for him, but not for his children. He wanted he said to rear them in an environment in which the opportunities for schooling would be less restricted against Negro children. Perhaps it wouldn't be fair to say that everyone who has known Tom Washington for the past ten years has known which one of his children, has most justified the move he made twenty years ago. He himself would not doubt repudiate any such intimation. But there is one fact which everyone who knows him knows, that for one of his children he has nursed a fervent ambition. For this one he has worked, prayed and sacrificed. And now comes the news that the one for whom the veteran has been toiling these many years is nearing the goal of his father's ambition. On the opening of the fall term of the University of Edinburgh, Scotland, this year one of the students to matriculate in its class of surgery was one Joseph Leonard Washington of Brooklyn, N. Y., n Negro, and the only one from his country in the school. Before proceeding further, it might be well to interject just here the record of Young Washington, although he needs no introduction to those who are familiar with the record of school athletics, in and around New York City. His first activities in athletics began back in 1909 when he was a pupil in Grammar School, No. 112, of Brooklyn. In 1917 he entered the Erasmus Hall-High School and was graduated from there in 1921. During his matriculation at Erasmus he was awarded the "McGhee Trophy" for brilliancy in Athletics, and was elected captain of the 1920 football team. For his work at this school, he was awarded the coveted E. H. H. S. scholarship to New York University. Young Washington served three years at N. Y. U. during which time he was secretary of the "Students Body", an starred on both the football and the baseball teams of that institution. From New York University, he went to Colby in Maine, from which he graduated last year and received the degree of B. S., which made him eligible to enter a medical school. His enrollment at the Scotland university followed. Joseph writes his father that he is extremely pleased with the treatment which the faculty and the students of the institution have accorded him. And as an instance of how enthused he is with Scotland, and how much he appreciates the sacrifice his father is making for him, the liberty is taken here of quoting from one of his letters, which the writer of this article was permitted to read: Father, its all like a dream to me to be here and find the place and people so congenial. It's the best treat you've given me in my life. I hope never to forget it, and will do my utmost to make good in appreciation of it. I pray to God that I'll be a success. The older Washington is now around his three score years, Carrying bags, jumping on and off Pullman cars, and rendering otherwise the class of service for which he was hoted twenty years ago, have become little more difficult as the years roll by. But, no one but himself will ever know how difficult until Joseph becomes a surgeon, four years hence. trying to seat and educate the thirteenth child of a family is not easy task. For one, if one believes in hoodiness. But since they do not take any stock in that sort of "ban", Mr. and Mrs. Robert F. Ballard of 310 West 135th street, this city, have essayed the role of being foster parents, as well as brother and sister, to Mr. Ballard's youngest sister, who is the thirteenth child of the older Ballard's family. From the description of an admiring friend, the Ballards are making a remarkable good job as adopted parents. There charge has now reached her second year in high school, and is quite popular among the young misses of her set. Some day, this admirable of the Ballards may, this thirteenth child will prove that it is a talisman to have a thirteenth member in the family. The friend's prophecy uray come true. Let us hope so, for the Ballards sake, anyway. But no matter how adorable little Miss Ballard may be, and to what future heights she may ascend, there is one person to whom most men, and all women, will give credit for being a jewel—that person is Mrs. Ballard. The modern woman is not keen for the duties of parentality which go with children of her own; and for the baby sister of her husband. That seems like a plumb-line striking bottom. But, then, the Ballards are uncommonly nice people. So that accounts for everything. MR. LOUIS WHITE SEE'S A LOUISIANA WRITER'S POINT OF VIEW Says Mr. White: "Mr. Rourk Bradford, who is a Southerner by birth and education, and who perhaps has had a wide and varied experience with colored people, writes on that trite subject, 'The Negro', in last month's Forum Magazine. And while the subject is a lackeyed one, the writer is intelligently conversant with his subject, and, in some ways, shows his acquaintance with the habits and traits of the Negro. "He has placed the members of the black race in three groups, and has very soberly passed upon the merits of each group. "The first group, to use his own words, 'belongs the 'nigger'. He is the shiftless ignorant laborer type, the steamboat roster and the field hand. He is the man who came to America-200 years ago. A note with an ungrammatical phrase than our orators can say in ten years." "His second classification, he calls the 'colored person'. He is the next step up the ladder of the white man's civilization. He is neither fish nor fowl, but his atavistic tendencies, which can so readily be seen, send him back to the 'nigger' classification, or his unsatisfied longings may send him still further up the ladder. He is race conscious. He is ashamed of his color, and is capable of sensing and feeling the injustices that betafall his race, but is incapable of arriving at an intelligent solution of them. "This Negro's blood is usually mixed. He wants to outdo the white man at the white man's own game, forgetting that he is pitting 200 years against the white man's thousands. "The third class: He is the real thing. He is not ashamed of being black. He knows his race, and—all things considered—has done pretty well in the past two centuries. He always looks forward to its being better in the future. The Negro can imitate the white man, but at best it is only an imitation." Thursday evening: December 1, the Ethiopian Republican Club of the old 13th Assembly District, Columbus Hill district, opened their new club headquarters with a reception and dance at 108 West 132nd street.

White Rose Auxiliary Elects New Officers At a meeting of the Men's Auxiliary to the White Rose Home for working girls, held Wednesday, November 30, the following officers were elected for the coming year: George W.

Jackson, the new officers, were Each license No. 1, examination shows that an increasing number, of colored teachers, are successful applicants for this license. Free udies, if dying down, and the efficient work of, the five or so hundred colored teachers, now in the service has been, and is, of great help to the large, number of colored applicants who are, each time taking the examination. If you who read this are a college or normal, school graduate, either with or without experience, teaching, go to the Board of Examination, Park avenue and 59th street, and file your application to take license. No examination. Teachers' salaries will be increased on the first of January. Moreover, it is an industrial waste for people with teachers' qualifications to work at other labor. On Wednesday, November 30, through, the courtesy of one of the largest milk companies, the Parents' Association of Public School 90, Manhattan, had the opportunity of listening to the art illustrated, lecture on milk, and its value to growing children. Each mother present was pres- ented with a quart bottle of fresh milk as a souvenir from the milk company. On January 31, the promotion of the children in the New York public schools will take place. All parents who have children at school, should not wait until promotion has taken place and then come to protest that their children have been left back through prejudice or 'other reason. When your child brings his report card home immediately after December 1, scrutinize that card very carefully. If there is any mark on it lower than R, the 'passing mark, make it your business to go to school, see the principal and have her find, out for, you from the teacher just where, the child is deficient. Then, give a little time each day to helping your child make up his deficiency when the last report is given out, scrutinize it carefully again. If you have been helping your child and do not see any improvement, he/she to have a special talk with the principal in regard to why there has been no improvement. Be sure that your child attends school regularly. Do not keep him or her home for small reasons like, it is raining out, or because you want to take the child out, or because the baby needs to be taken out for a day or for a part of the day. See that your child is equipped with rubbers* and with a waterproof and an umbrella. You will find that these are good investments. They do not cost very much and they last a long time and the possession, and use of them mean a great child is promoted, instead of being left back. Suppose that your child was out of school and was working, at the rate of $10 a week, that child in six months would earn $240. Ask yourself this question: "Have I $260 to throw away?" You will reply, "Gottenly no." Well, how many parents, either from carelessness or through lack of close supervision of their child, close connection with the child's back, having the child left back, which means that the child will go to work six months later, no matter whether a child goes to work in junior, high school, high school, or college. So it behoves every parent to scrutinize the report cards every month. Highest Prices; Declers pay almost nothing. Send Stamps for inspection, or send detailed description of same to Box 'X Y Z, N. Y. Age. New York Academy of Business 447 LENOX AVENUE New York City PROMOTION DAY ```markdown ``` By Joseph C. Noethen: "The high school of the City of New York have been giving courses in the useful arts for a considerable number of years. These courses are open to girls who have completed the elementary or mobile school course of eight years. They continue for an additional four years and lead at the successful-termination of that period of study to a high school diploma. It has been found, however that industrial conditions, conditions which these young people have to face when their high school, careers are terminated, can only be approximated in the classroom. Much essentially practical information is still to be learned in a disadvantage is consequently at a disadvantage. Co-operative education has been found to be the solution of this problem of practical training. But it is much more than merely that. It is to a great extent, the means of securing a high, school education, for a girl whose parents find it is difficult to support her daughter's 'education'. In short, it gives the poor girl a chance to capitalize her ability. All types of sewing, are taught, in these schools and, the nirs are, carefully studied so that any hidden talents may be brought to light. The courses 'are', comprehensive, and through 'and' the tea classes are well-trained, have all had comprehensive industrial experience, and are sympathetic. In other words, an education of this kind is certainly worth while has been deprived of this opportunity because of financial need. It is here that the co-operative plan functions. Girls are grouped by two, and are sent to employers as a pair. These two girls fill one job. The first week of the girls works on the job, the other attends school. At the end of the week the girls change, the working girl, attending school, the other girl, attending school. This way it is possible for a girl to turn between $300 and $400 a year, acquiring a sound, practical and theoretical education at the same time. In addition, promotion on the job tends to be more regular and employment more stable and less seasonal. The school also gives girls watchful eyes over them while on the job, guarding mirrors and providing health, and proper associations. This brief notice has been prepared for the information of parents and employers. Its practical operation depends on two factors: 1. Securing the proper type of student-worker. 2. Enlisting the cooperation of enlightened employers. For the employer we may cite the following advantages: . . . 1. A well-trained, competent, and cultured supply of labor. 2. Minimum of turnover, Girls sign an agreement, to stay, with an employer for at least six months pending staffacy service. 3. Competition between the two members of the pair for permanent placement. 4. The employer has two applicants for one job. He can select the better one for permanent work. At the present time we have a student body, ready and eager to employ them. We are trying to arouse the interest of employers. What we need right now is men and women who will give this well worth while experiment a trial. Employers are urged to communicate with the editor of The New York Age, or with Charles M. Smith, coordinating director of Guidance and Placement. 131 Livingston street, Brooklyn, whose office has charge of all this type of education representative of the Board of Education will call at the convenience of the employer. There is no charge for this service either to applicant or employer. The writer wishes to thank the editor of The New York Age Fred R. Moore for hisgetterous'dohation of space in this worthy cause and for the additional hearty co-operation. Subscribe to The New York Age and get a Dictionary free.
