The list of signers, headed by Robert R Moton, from the Tuskegee, W. E. I. E. DuBois, editor of The Crisis Magazine, and Dr. John Hope, president of Morehouse College, includes men and women, editors, politicians, churchmen, and the civil service commissioners of New York and Cleveland. The appeal warns that "bad as religious hatred and evil personal gossip are, they have not the seeds of evil and disaster that lie in continued unlimited and unrestrained appeal to race prejudice."
No Real Peace
The statement characterizes as "an appeal to the lowest and most primitive of human motives" the "emphasis of racial contempt and hatred which is being made in this campaign," and asserts that "as long as this appeal can successfully be made, there is for this land no real peace, no sincere religion, no national unity, no social progress, even in matters far removed from racial controversy." The appeal list as among the objectionable, utterances of partisans of the leading candidates, the following:
Negro Support Not Wanted.
That Negro voters should not be appealed to, or their support welcomed by the advocates of just causes
That colored persons should not hold pupils office, no matter what their character may be nor how well they do their work nor how competently they satisfy their constituents.
That the contact of white people and black people in government, in business, and in daily life, in common effort and cooperation calls for explanation and apology.
No Nacro In Office
That the honesty and integrity of party organization depend on the complete removal of all Negroes from voice and authority.
That the appointment of a public official is an act that concerns only white citizens, and that colored citizens should have neither voice nor consideration in such appointments.
The signers of the appeal, whose names are being added to by telegraph are as follows:

WALTER FOSTER REPORTS BOSTON SAFE FOR G. O. P Says Massachusetts Is 80 Per Cent Republican and Safe
Boston, Mass. — Walter Foster, members of the executive committee, Colored Voters' Division, under the Republican National Committee, declares that Boston colored people are not giving any great support to the Democratic party, Massachusetts, he says, is 80 per cent Republican. The speech made here recently by Herbert Hoover, Republican candidate for President, had a effect on the Negro population, asserts Mr. Foster, the result of which cannot yet be fully estimated. Rallies and house meetings are being held every night, with political study clubs in daily operation. In these clubs sample ballots are displayed and voters instructed in their use. Mr. Foster reports Rhode Island as being safely Republican so far as the colored, vote is concerned, giving Messrs. Stockett and Minkins full credit for having the situation well in hand. These men have also done some fine work in Massachusetts. Hoover pictures, being sown in Boston and other cities, telling a story which is reaching the minds of the new, as well as the oldest voters. Connecticut, continues Mr. Foster, is being taken care of by Frank P. Chisholm, who has spoken at various points, as has William H. Lewis of Boston, former Assistant United States Attorney. Mr. Chisholm is quoted as predicting that state safe in the Republican column.
The enrollment in Massachusetts reaches 1,700,000.

Sen. Joe Robinson, When Governor Of Arkansas, Told School Head He Wanted No Praise From "Niggers!"
President of Branch Normal School For Colored Pupils Told By State Executive That "I Am Not Their (The Negro) Friend"
Pine Bluff, Ark.—Just what the Negro may expect under a Democratic Presidential Administration is clearly indicated by the pronounced attitude of Senator Joseph Robinson, the candidate for Vice-President, as shown by him when he visited the Branch Normal School for Neroes, located here.
At that time he was Governor of Arkansas, and as such was chairman ex-officio of the Board of Education. In that capacity he visited the school during the principalship of the late P. T. Vinegar, who introduced the Governor to the audience, paying a fitting compliment to the State Executive.
No Friend To Negro.
But when the then Gov. Robinson arose to speak, he immediately expressed himself, saving: "VINEGAR, I DID NOT COME HERE TO BE PRAISED BY 'NIGGERS' FOR I AM NOT THEIR FRIEND." Commenting on the incident, the Rev. W. E. Watson, now pastoring Grace Temple Baptist Church said: "I know the G. O. P. has not done all they could have done, but I must say to my group. Stand by the Grand Old Ship, for all else is sea, and not be bought, for a few loaves and fishes. I know we cannot expect anything from the Democratic party, but we can look for something from the G. O. P.
Bishop Ransom Should Think
"When I saw an account of Bishop R. C. Ranason's speech, I was utterly surprised. It seems that he ought to think for a moment of how he was treated in Alabama by the party he is now speaking for. When he was on his way to visit the Calhoun School of which the late Dr. Council was president, at Calhoun, Ala. he was taken off the train and came near being lynched by whites belonging to that party.
"The Democratic party has nothing in store for our group. We ought to stop and think about those old sages now on the Supreme Court bench, who are getting on in years. If Gov. Smith is elected President, their places will be filled by men who will disregard the Constitution of the United States. We should stop and reason about what we are going to do.
"First, we should be men above price, but look to the things that are for the best interest of our group and the nation. Now, listen. What have the Democrats to offer us have fill us surrendering in the Senate to keep those who would from doing anything for us?" Fellow countrymen, heed the warning given by one who knows."
Bishop Alleyne Says Smith Cannot Be Of Service To the Negro
Syracuse, N.Y.—"The Negro is taking a rash step when he allies himself with any other party than the Republican," declared Bishop C. A. Alleyne of the Western New York Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, at the People's Church here on Sunday.
"There are some leaders of the race who maintain that the Republican party means nothing to the Negro. Those men who speak thus are not worth listening to. A Republican President wrote the Emancipation Proclamation and the Republican party put the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments into the Constitution.
"With due justice to Governor Smith, I do not trust the Democratic party. Smith may be alright in the White House but in this particular position he would not be able to grapple with the problems of the country and give justice to the people immediately concerned.
"No Democratic President can do justice to the Negro," said the Bishop, "He always has the prejudice of the Solid South to reckon with.
"If they do away with the Eighteenth Amendment the Eighteenth and Fifteenth are doomed.

Lone Robber Gets $250 Holding Up N. Y. Train
Chicago, Ill.—Passengers, on the Michigan Central's Western express, New York-Chicago extra fare train, were held up Monday, October 29 by an armed Negro, who got aboard at Michigan City, Ind., and jumped off as the train was roaring toward Gary.
The robber climbed aboard when the train, due in Chicago at 9:05 p.m., made a short stop at Michigan City. When the train was in motion he swing around and upward from his position under the trap door on the observation car, smashed the glass and crawled in.
He swept the score of men and women passengers with his revolver, and commanded them to give him their money and jewels. Robert A. McCullough, Chicago, handed over $179 and I. E. Colvin, head of the Metal Glass Products Company of Belding, Mich., gave the robber $80. Mrs. Colvin dropped her jewels to the floor, as did several other women.
R. I. Owens of Detroit, brakenman, stepped in upon the robbery before he realized what was going on. The robber fired, the bullet striking above the brakenman's head. The Negro then ran to the front of the car and leaped from the train.

Armory Board Passes Resolution Authorizing Administration And Officers' Quarters, 15th Armory
Comptroller Berry Presented Matter Recommending Favorable Action—Alderman Fred R. Moore Worked For Armory With Board
Secretary, John B. Trainer of the Armory Board of the City of New York, announced on Friday, October 26, that the Board had adopted a resolution providing for an administration building and officers' quarters as an addition to the 369th Armory (Old 15th N. Y.), adjoining the site of the present drill hall on West 143rd street, between Lenox and Fifth avenues.
This action follows intensive efforts by Alderman Fred R. Moore, who, as soon as he took office, began work towards securing this addition to the Armory. Extensive petitions were circulated, signed and filed with the Armory Board, and the President of the Board of Aldermen, Joseph V. McKee, was asked to cooperate. In consequence, President McKee made a personal investigation of the situation, and recommended that the addition be authorized.
SEN. ROBINSON IN CALIFORNIA TRIES CAMOUFLAGE
Tells Negroes He Will Give Fair Play, But
Alderman Moore sat with the Armory Board in its consideration of the matter and later appeared before the Sinking Fund Commission. The cooperation was sought and gained of Co. William A. Taylor regimental commander. Brigadier General George R. Dyer commanding 87th Brigade, and GI Comptroller Charles W. Berry. All of these favored the proposition.
The resolution acted on by the Armory Board was presented by Comptroller Berry, who recommended favorable action by the Board. The new structure when completed, will be a combination armory and civic centre. four stories high, of brick and limestone, costing approximately $550,000. It is planned to contain not only company rooms, locker rooms and officers' quarters, but a community meeting place for citizens of Harlem as well.
In his announcement, Secretary Trainer comments on the fact that Comptroller Berry has long admired the 39th Infantry New York's only Negro regiment, successor to the famous Old 15th N. Y., called the "Hellfighters" by, its French allies during the World War, and that Gen. Berry was much pleased with being able to secure the necessary property on which to erect a permanent armory for the Harlem people.
Entire Regiment Decorated
Following the meeting of the Board, General Berry recalled the service rendered by the 369th Infantry in the World War. He said their valorous deeds will long be remembered by a grateful people. The General recalled that the entire regiment was decorated by the French Government, the colored troops having fought side by side with the French armies.
The regiment and its colors were decorated with the croix de guerre, the General continued, and the outfit was the first of the American Expeditionary forces to enter Germany—a courtesy extended to the regiment by the allied armies in recognition of 195 days of service in the trenches, during which its casualties were very heavy.
General Berry predicted that the permanent home of the Old 15th would not alone be beneficial to the National Guard, of the State, but would be a boon to Harlem's community spirit and civic life.
It was pointed out Tuesday at Republican State Headquarters that voters employed upon Election Day have a legal right to absent themselves for two hours to vote.
It is provided in Section 200 of the election law that this period may be taken by the voter, who must notify his employer of his intention prior to Election Day." and if, thereupon, two successive hours, for such absence shall be designated by the employer, and such absence shall be during the designated hours or, if the employer upon the day of such notice makes no designation, and such absence shall be during any two successive hours while the polls are open, no deduction shall be made from the usual salary or wages of such voter and no other penalty shall be imposed upon him by his employer."
5 CENTS IN U. S. A. (TEN CENTS IN FOREIGN LANDS)
A press dispatch from Washington tells of a conference in California between Senator Joseph T. Robinson of Arkansas, Democratic candidate for Vice-President, and a delegation of Negroes, in which Senator Robinson is reported as having promised the race fair treatment at hands of the Democratic party in the event of a Democratic victory.
But in another column of this paper there is a story telling of the attitude taken by Senator Robinson when he was Governor of Arkansas and visited the Branch Normal School for Negroes at Pine Bluff. When introduced by the then school president, the late Prof. F. T. Vinegar, in a complimentary manner, Gov. Robinson arose, and in the most abrupt and insolent manner, told the school head:
"VINEGAR, I DID NOT COME HERE TO BE PRAISED BY NIGGERS' FOR I AM NCA THEIR FRIEND!"

Watt Terry Leads Members Of His Race With $545,000 In Life Insurance Policies
A bulletin just issued under auspices of the North Carolina Life Insurance Company of Durham gives some interesting information about life insurance as an investment. One of the interesting bits of information is a list of prominent patrons of life insurance persons with policies from $5,000 upward.
VOTERS, CAST YOUR BALLOT FOR EVERY REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE!
Compare the records of Herbert Hoover and Charles Curtis, candidates for President and Vice-President, respectively, and of Albert Ottinger, candidate for Governor of the State of New York, with the records of the Democratic candidates. All the Republican candidates stand and have stood for Good Government.
"Equality of opportunity is the right of every American—rich or poor, foreign or native born, irrespective of color. It is the right of every individual to attain that position in life to which his ability and character entitle him." — From Hoover's Speech of Acceptance.
When the Mississippi flood, the greatest peace time disaster in the history of America, demanded the superlative in ability and the broadest outlook on human welfare, Herbert Hoover was called by the Government to take charge. Determined that all people should have equality of treatment and relief, Mr. Hoover created a commission of colored leaders to co-operate with him in conserving the interests of the colored flood sufferers.
CHARLES C. CURTIS has been a consistent advocate of all humanitarian legislation; was one of the leaders in the fight for woman suffrage, the soldiers' adjusted compensation bill and the anti-child labor amendment. He has always been sympathetic to the problems of the colored citizens.
ALBERT OTTINGER, Republican candidate for Governor, is a native of New York City. From the outset of his public career, Mr. Ottinger openly and aggressively championed the cause of what he, himself, termed "common honesty as a habit of life." (This has been the keynote of his entire political career. As State Senator, he, with Assemblyman Edward A. Johnson, now the Republican candidate for Congress from the 21st Congressional District, drafted and brought about the passage of the Civil Rights Bill, preventing discrimination because of race, color or creed in public places in New York State.) He stands square on the race question and believes in giving equal opportunity to all, regardless of race, creed or color.
During his eight years of service as Governor of New York State AL SMITH has not made one appointment of a Negro to an important position at Albany. He twice vetoed the Grenthal Bill, which would give the colored people of Harlem the opportunity to elect a member of their race to the Municipal bench.
Remember that it was FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT, Democratic candidate for Governor; who, while Assistant Secretary of the Navy under the late Democratic President, Woodrow Wilson, wrote and signed the objectionable and oppressive Haitian Constitution, which has marked the American occupation of the little Negro Republic.
Remember that Senator JOSEPH T. ROBINSON, while Governor of Arkansas, told the late President F. T. Vinegar of the Branch State School for Negroes; "Vinegar, I DID NOT COME HERE TO BE PRAISED BY 'NIGGERS,' FOR I AM NOT THEIR FRIEND."

Her health began to fail about a year ago and she had been confined to her bed since last May.
The body lay in state at the home all day Saturday and the esteem in which she was held was evidenced by the many telegrams and letters of condolence received, as well as the many floral tributes, which were banked about the room. So numerous were the floral tributes that two autos were required to carry a part of them to the cemetery and the others were distributed among the patients at St. Luke's Hospital and the inmates of the St. Philip's Home for the Aged.
She is survived by an adopted daughter, a sister, a brother, two nieces and two nephews.
Fun: services were conducted from St. Philip's Sunday with the Rev. Hutchins C. Bishop, rector, officinating, assisted by the Reys. Fred Swan and John H. Johnson, rector of St. Cyprian's Church. The many floral offerings and the large congratulation gave the church the appearance of Easter Sunday.
Interment, was at Woodlawn
Cemetery under direction of William

were Stephen H. Bailey. Z Willi-

Southern Citizens Denounce Appeal To Race Prejudice
Protesting against the injection of the race question into the present political campaign 46 outstanding southern men and women have signed a statement characterizing appeals to prejudice "firewant and dangerous" and call upon the people of the South to discontenance such appeals. The statement was signed by people supporting both the candidates of the major political parties.
The statement follows.
"The undersigned citizens of the South, some of them supporters of one Presidential candidate and some of the other, desire unitedly to voice this public protest against the injection of the race question into the present political campaign. Had either political group alone been responsible for raising this subject, we would hesitate to make the statement it be thought partisan. But it is being used by partisans for both sides, who or the of driving voters into their respective camps are in our judgment reopening the healing wounds of bitterness and hate.
"We believe these appeals are both irrelevant and dangerous. It is our hope that no one will be deterred by them from calmly considering the real issues and voting his honest convictions, and certainly that no one will allow them to inflame his mind with antagonism toward our Negro neighbors, who too long have been pawns in the game of politics. Any attempt to influence men and women with an issue so untimely is unworthy of the white man and unjust to all. If taken seriously it is the sowing of dragons' teeth of which future generations must reap the harvest.
"Happily we believe it will not be taken seriously. We believe our citizenship is too intelligent ant too fair-minded thus to sacrifice the cause of interracial peace and prog-

We therefore call upon the leadership of the South, the pulpit the press and the platform, and upon every right thinking man and woman among us, to disclaim, discount and discountance such appeal to prejudice and fear, to the en that gains in recent years in interracial good will and understanding may not be sacrificed to the passif interests of a political campaign.

defeated them, 19-12, in a hard
struggle at the Memorial Stadium
here. The local team was trail-
ing at'the end of the first half by
a score of 12-0 but came back full
of determination and completely
outclassed them in ore of the most
thrilling finishes of the season.
Gill scored A and T's first
touchdown in the thrid period af:
ter Lane had battered, and ripped
his way through the Union line for
four consecutive first downs He
ran 23 yards off tackle and contin-
ued over the goal despite the um-
pire’s horn. Union was offside on
the play and A. and T. gained the
touchdown via the gain or penalty
route. Lane crashed through cen-
ter far the extra, point.
After a thrilling aerial attack, the
second and winning touchdown
was made by Raiford on an oft
tackle play. Streater_ intercepted
a Union pass and galloped 30 yards
for the final score.
Lane was the star of the game
but Paterson at center and Cun-
ningham at right tackle also played
brilliantly. Washington carried off
the biggest share of the honors

A DIVERSITY OF OPINION.
The discussion of Presidential candidates and the issues embraced in party platforms has been so wide and inclusive, that it has extended into at least two of the monthly magazines devoted to racial interests. In the Crisis for November it took the form of a symposium on the question, "How Shall We Vote?" John R. Hawkins, chairman of the Colored Voters division of the National Republican Campaign committee, told why he was for Hoover. Among other reasons given was because "his experience in ministering to war sufferers and flood sufferers have revealed his broad sympathies for all mankind." Mr. Hoover's record in the matter of Mississippi Flood Relief was mentioned as a testimonial of his willingness to administer any high office without discrimination and with even-handed justice.
Ferdinand Q. Morton, Civil Service Commissioner of New York City, insisted that the election of Governor Smith would be a fine victory for the cause of tolerance and fair play in America, and every American who suffers from the effects of religious bigotry and racial hat treds would be a beneficiary. As a logical result, he claimed that "the Negro could not be denied participation in these benefits." He maintained that colored voters should give their ballots to Governor Smith, if for no other reason, than to establish the fact that they are politically independent and regard the ballot "as our own property and not the property of the Republican party."
Dr. W. E. DalBois, editor of the Crisis, announced that he was going to vote for Norman Thomas and the Socialist ticket, for the former because he is a fine upstauding man who has not been afraid to champion the unpopular cause and because he recognizes the Negro as part of the laboring class. Reading the platform of the Socialist party and comparing it with the other two parties, Dr. Dullons pronounced it the only platform "that has common sense or justice, reason or hope, written into it. It dares to mention Negro disfranchisement as a prime cause of reaction, fraud and privilege, and it is right." Opportunity, the monthly magazine published by the National Urban League, also has a discussion of "The Negro and His Ballot," in which Clarence Darrow leads off by saying that personally he is very strong for Al Smith. He cannot say honestly that he sees any difference between the two parties so far as the question of equal opportunity for the colored race is concerned, and the only thing he that all sure of is that the Negroes ought to vote independently and divide their votes, William H. Lewis, once a famous football star and a former Assistant Attorney General of the United States, is personally strong for Mr. Hoover, because he believes that upon vital issues to the race "Mr. Hoover will be far more friendly sympathetic, have a keeper understanding of what is fair and just to the coloured voter; and moreover the courage of his convictions."
For the Socialist party, Norman Thomas wrote asking cooperation in the common cause of ridding the world of poverty, tyranny and war. He said further, "Specifically we have pledged ourselves to the Dyer anti-lynching bill. Generally we pledge ourselves to one justice for colored and white; to one test for the right to vote and hold office; namely, the test of personal fitness." He asks for support, "believing that a socialism which cannot conquer a distinctive race prejudice is no true socialism and that true socialism is the only road to a solution of our social ills."
In this diversity of opinion as to the course to be pursued by the colored voters in this campaign, there appears to be but one practical solution. In such states as New York, where these colored voters have allied themselves with the Republican party on national issues, they should support the candidates so long as they deserve that support. It is to be remembered that beside the election of
President and Vice President, there are a Senator and Representatives in Congress to be chosen, as well as Governor and other state officers, including state Senators and Assemblymen. A Republican President will need a Republican Congress to put through his measures and a Republican Governor should have a Republican Legislature behind him.
As a practical measure of assuring the best government possible under the present system of party government, our voters will do well to support the Republican candidates for the various offices.
SOME SPECIOUS REASONING.
Following the lead of the Chicago Defender, the Baltimore Afro-American last week came out in advocacy of the election of Governor Alfred E. Smith as President of the United States. The reasons given by our Baltimore contemporary for this step are predicated on Mr. Hoover's acceptance of support from the ku klux klan and his campaign in the South to make the party lily white, which it said, "leave us no alternative. We are leaving before we are kicked out." It charges Mr. Hoover with having eliminated every Negro leader of the party in the Southern states and printed a cartoon on its firstpage, headed "Another. Whispering Campaign," in which the candidate was depicted as a Cave Man grasping a club, with a clump of trees in the background bearing the several interrogations:
Where is Bob Church?
Where is Walter Cohen?
Where is Ben Davit?
Where is Perry Howard?
Over the head of the Cave Man is the benignistic response "Am I my brother, keeper?"
Of course, it would deprive this cartoon of much of its point if the several questions were answered literally, to the effect that Mr. Church is in Memphis heading to carry Tennessee for the Republican ticket; that Walter Cohen is attaching to his duties as Controller of Customs at New Orleans, and Ben Davis making Republican speeches in the West having spoken over a week ago in Cleveland. Perry Howard is probably preparing his defence to the indictment fought against him by a Mississippi grand jury. Several other members of the Negress have pronounced for the Democratic ticket in their columns, even the conservative Norfolk Journal and Guinprinting an editorial giving "Some Reasons for Supporting Smith." But the Norfolk editor does not see in Smith "panic for any political or economic illicits to our own group." It has the faith, however, "that as social justice is quickeness will the whole people be happy and prosperous, and these conditions cannot prevail without our group, in common with all other groups, sharing the resplendent light."
While hardly sharing the anticipation of our Norfolk contemporary as to the benefits to be expected from the election of Governor Smith, judging from his display of intolerance when called upon to sign the bill for additional municipal justice in Harlem, he having twice vetoed the bill might have brought about a selection of a colored judge, we would put his associate on the ticket. Senator Joseph T. Robinson of Arkansas is a candidate for Vice President, who was succeeded to the Presidency in case of disability of the head of the ticket. This is the man whose attitude toward the race is illustrated by an incident that place when he was Governor of Arkansas and visited a Negro college at Pine Bluff Upon his introduction by the late P. F. T. Vinegar, who was described as assistant of the first rank, the Governor and said to Prof. Vinegar, "I did not come to be praised by Niggers, for I did not their friend." If you vote for Sue you at the same time vote for his assortment on the ticket, who thus brutally proclaimed his animosity toward the race.
The papers who are supporting Sue for President have to swallow Robin at the same time. The specious reason employed to justify their action will stand the test of the facts of the situation. However, they have apparently convinced themselves of the wisdom of their course even if they cannot convince their readers.

ART AND RACE PREJUDICE.

A change in public sentiment concerning the Negro, amounting almost to a complete revolution, is attributed by James Weldon Johnson to the work of the artists of the race. In Harper's Magazine for November Mr. Johnson has an article on "Race Prejudice and the Negro Artist," in which he traced the sudden recognition by the white world of the accomplishments of the race in the drama and on the stage, in music and in poetry. He traced the emergence of the poets, of whom he considers Claude McKay the most powerful, and also the development of the drama. McKay vowed
the feelings of the black man after the World War in a way to command attention.
The fact that the Negro had something new to contribute to the growth of American art, in its various departments, was significant enough to command attention. Hence the importance given to the three plays of Negro life by Ridgely Torrence in 1917' and the gradual appearance of Negro actors on Broadway. Mr. Johnston thinks that Negro folk art which has been absorbed into the nation's culture and utilized by white writers and composers, is now approaching its end. It has become known throughout the world through Spirituals, Blues, dance music and folk lore. The writer said:
"The Negro has done a great deal through his folk-art creations to change the national attitudes towards him; and now the efforts of the race have been reinforced and magnified by the individual Negro artist, the individual artist. It is fortunate that the individual artist has emerged; for it is more than probable that with the ending of the creative period of the Blues, which seems to be at hand, the whole folk creative effort of the Negro in the United States will come to a close. All the psychological and environmental forces that individual Negro artists that is now doing most to effect a crumbling of the inner walls of race prejudice; there are outer and inner walls."
Concluding his survey, which includes the names of other performers, of prose writers and the few Negro painters and sculptors in America, Mr. Johnson wrote: "I do not think it too much to say that through artistic achievement the Negro has found a means of getting at the very core of the prejudice against him, by challenging the Nordic superiority complex. . . . The connotations of the very name 'Negro' have been changed. A generation ago many Negroes were half or wholly ashamed of the term. Today they have every reason to be proud of it." This would seem to fulfill the prediction made, by Dr. J. McCune Smith three quarters of a century ago, as to the race's contribution to American civilization.
PROTESTING VICIOUS POLITICS.
Characterizing the present struggle for a majority of the votes as "The Dirtiest Political Campaign." The Nation, the liberal weekly edited by Oswald Garrison Villard, said that the neater the end of the campaign comes, the worst it appears. The Nation hopes that out of the evils witnessed in this display of intolerance will come a realization of the gravity of denying free speech, free assembly and justice in the courts. It claims that they are all tied together, including lynching, the Ku Klux Klan and the denial to Communists of the right of peaceful meeting.
So far has the indecency of political warfare gone in the treatment of the Negro, as has been pointed out in the columns of The Age, that it finally provoked a solemn protest on the part of the heads of various racial organizations, which took the form of an Appeal to America, which appeared in many of the daily papers last week. The specific nature of the protest was against the permitting by political leaders in this campaign of public and repeated assertions on the platform, in the press and by word of mouth, "that color and race constitute in themselves an imputation of guilt and crime."
It instanced that it had been said by partisans of the leading candidates in various parts of the country:
1. That Negro voters should not be appealed to, or their support welcomed by the advocates of just causes.
2. That colored persons should not hold public office, no matter what their character may be nor how well they do their work nor how completely they satisfy their constituents.
3. That the contact of white people and black people in government, in business, and in daily life, in common effort and cooperation, calls for explanation and apology.
4. That the honesty and integrity of party organization depend on the complete removal of all Negroes from voice and authority.
3. That the appointment of a public official is an art which complements its vigilance and that colored citizens should have neither voice nor consideration in such appointments.
The protest went on to say that the signers did not believe that the majority of the white people North or South believe in the necessity or the truth of the assertions current in this campaign, but it was the absence of any sense of their unfairness and their complacent acceptance that constituted the grave danger of taking these arguments at their face value. The protest called for a public repudiation of this campaign of racial hatred and a recognition of the essential humanity of the millions of Americans who happen to be dark-skinned.
Of all the dirty work perpetrated in "the dirtiest political campaign," the vicious propaganda promulgated about the Negro, as a pawn in the game, has been the most poisonous, in that it resorted to the inciting of racial animosities that were being supplanted by more harmonious relations. The protest is justified by the facts.
It should awaken the sense of justice of the American people to the unfairness of the tactics employed in this campaign.
Editor of The New York Age:
Some of our would be political mentors present first one and then another alibi for supporting Al Smith and the National Democratic Party in the present campaign;
departments in Washington; the fact that there are a few sincere Democrats to be found in the party; and last, but not the least excuse is that Hoover will not openly condemn the K. K. Klan organization as Smith has done.
I surmise that Mr. Smith would welcome an opportunity to support that he cannot get real the object of his life-long ambition, but he well knows it is another case of "sour grape," so far as the K. K. Klan is concerned, hence he deserves no special credit for refusing its aid.
As for Mr. Hoover, he doubtless feels he can assume the position in the premises, which Christ on one oecception suggested to him criticizing some other guy for "casting-out devils in Thy name, and we forbade him." Jesus said, "Forbid him not; for he that is not against us is for us." Luke 4:90-50.
Now this isn't intended as a quasi or any other kind of endorsement of the Klan organization, but any Neo-Nazi subject this subject as a reason for supporting Al Smith is truly desperate in his search for, an excuse.
But let us get down to brass tacks: Somehow I cannot persuade myself to believe that these so-called Democratic Negro ovaters, who are among the most hostile political pastures, are actuated by altruistic motives for the political welfare of their race. They are supposed to intelligent men, not unacquainted with the history of the Republican and Democratic parties, so far as their attitudes respectively concerned on the political rights of the blacks. We have a lurking supposition that, is some of these Negro Democratic speakers and writers to make a close inspection of themselves, mentally, and a clean breast of it, they will discover that SELPIISHNESS is largely responsible for causing the race, rather than any interest in their political welfare.
Four years ago, the night of October 2, Tammany Hall had a big rally and John W. Davis, the Democratic nominee for the Presidency at that time. Governor Smith, and Mayor Ivan were the main speakers. Frederick W. was also in the stand, was introduced as the leader of the colored Democracy of New York City.
Among the things he said that night were, "For, in supporting the Democratic Party we shall do so with full knowledge of the fact, that, WHERE FOR RIGHTS, THE MOST FLAGRANTLY DENIED US, THE LOCAL GOVERNMENTS ARE CONTROLLED BY THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. But we intend at the coming election to support that party, because as other Americans, we realize that whatever its faults, those of the Democratic Party the political house of our race" and of the nation."
We are satisfied that there was not a self-respecting, intelligent white man in that audience that night who heard the above fawning and serve gritterance but that he immediately lost his respect for the manhood of the Negro, who could so easily ignore the political ills of his own race for a "mass of pots." It is quite an joy of fate just now that Mr Morton is today a bright and shining target for a severe denunciation of Tammany by Southern Democrats because of the appointment of a Negro to a lucrative office wherein he has a white female stenographer.
Solon, the great Athenian statesman on one occasion said, "That is the greatest government, which the most citizens is felt by all." Such a feeling should be exercised by every Negro towards other members of the race, it matters not where his residence may be in this country.
Too many of our Northern Negroes seem to have forgotten the dutch whence they or their parents have been dig and the political and economic battles by which they surrounded, before they pulled up their stakes in the South, burnt the bridges behind them and migrated Acom just because they are now enjoying the advantages of political and civil freedom, they ought not to forget their brethren, who are still in the South, and their battles, not where the Angola-Saox resides, he never forgets that he is a white man; his sympathies and cooperation are always at the service of other members of the race, when needed, wherever they may live. And not until a similar racial spirit is characteristic of the Negro people, who respect and recognition of other race groups, who amount to anything in this country.
Our friends should remember that AN EAGLE IS A SILENT BIRD: A CROW IS NOT, and that there two kinds of men who are silent—GREAT MEN and dull men. No one but a fool, however, would put Herbert Hoover in the latter class.
In conclusion, we confess the Republican Party has done song things—which it should not have done, and it has failed to do other things which it should have done. The Negro should justify the faith of the race and command its approval.
Let us, therefore, as a race get interested and bestir themselves and to the polls on November 6th and help roll up such an overwhelming majority for Hoover and Curtis that our political adversaries will not soon forget the event.

Greensboro, K. C
And 18th Amendment
Editor of The New York Age:
In 'his acceptance speech, Gov. Smith made a declaration in favor of changing the immigration quota and stated his opposition to the 'National orgin's base. The World War practically stopped immigration to thousands of foreigners residing in the United States called to the colors of their native land. The result was a labor shortage in the North. To meet this shortage, Negro labor in the South was drawn upon. This was the beginning of the migration of 700,000 Negroes to the North. At the close of the World War, Congress furried a foreign immigration. These restrictions caused the continuation of the labor shortage in northern industries. If Gov. Smith's proposal prevailed and the immigration quota is changed, foreign immigrants will rush to America and the Negroes' industrial opportunities in the North will be one hundred times worse than they are today. The living standards of foreign laborers are much lower than those of American laborers. Foreign laborers can live off less, more frequently work for less, than American laborers. Good food and good clothes. He loves to worship in fine churches; he wants to educate his children and he loves the movies.
The State Department has announced that there over 1,000,000 applicants for immigration visas in southern and eastern Europe. They will be supporting a modification of the present immigration law, a vocated by Gov. Smith, Gov. Smith's proposal raises a disturbing prophecy of the time when the presen industrial opportunities of the Negro caused largely by restricted immigration laws, will be disastrously diminished.
For Hoover is a vote in favor of the maintenance of our present excellent law and of the preservation of the American standards of living. A vote for Smith is a vote for breaking down the essential principle of this law, and all that it means for the protection of America against competition with the "cheap labor" of southern and eastern Europe.
Further than this, Gov. Smith favors amending the 18th Amendment. Certain States in America have opposed the 14th and 15th Amendments. If Gov. Smith is elected in amending the 18th Amendment he would move be to amend the 14th and 15th Amendments? The 14th and 15th Amendments are fruits of the Civil War and were enacted to safeguard the Negro in his civil and political liberties. The 18th Amendment would be the protection of the American homes and the man enunciation of the black man from the evils of drunk.
Can the Negro afford, to vote power to any party that wants to begin tampering with any one, of the Amendments, in any of the amend any of these Amendments is a vote to strike at the Constitution and add a vote to discontinuity the stability of our American government. From its birth the Republican party has sponsored manhood rights 1884 and Mr. Houser is led to changing the Constitution and stands firmly and unequivocally by the great moral issue contained in the 18th Amendment. I shall ask for Herbert Hower, PRISKH, FRANK I. MIDDLE-Field Secretary, Tuskegee Institute, Saybrook, Conn.
Dr. Wm. Y. Bell Praised
Editor of The New York Age.
There has been comparatively no comment in the newspapers of Harlem on the loss of one whom I consider a most valuable citizen. I refer to the Rev. William Y. Bell, who recently resigned the pastorate of the Williams Institutional C. M. E. Church, after nine years, to become a member of the faculty of Gammon Theological Seminary, Atlanta, Ga.
Dr. Bell was a modest man and never sought publicity in the newspapers. But for this fact, more people would have learned how he built up the work of his denomination and church in Harlem so that his successor, the Rev. Pensy A. Bryson, has taken over a church that gives every promise of becoming one of Harlem's big churches of the future.
Dr. Bell was, perhaps, one of the best trained ministers of our race. He was graduated from Lane College with the bachelor of Arts degree in 1907 and received his master's degree from Northwestern University in 1915. He also received the bachelor of sacred Theology degree from Garrett Biblical Institute in the same year. He was awarded the trustee fellowship at Garrett and the Carroll Outer Fellowship at Yale University, and there received the doctor of philosophy degree in 1934.
Before becoming pastor of Williams Church, Dr. Bell was pastor for two years of the New Hope Church in Evanston, Ill., and was a chaplain in the United States Army for one year.
In 1913, Dr Bell married Miss Annabelle Compton of Chicago and they have three children. Although the son is only 14, he has enrolled at Lane College and already begun his collegiate training.
Much of Dr. Bell's success in New York was due to the personality and assistance of his wife, who made many sacrifices to help him complete his education at Yale, and who from time to time
Quoting Owen D. Young, chairman of the General Electric Company, as to the key to prosperity lying in the living standards of the people of this country, the Norfolk Journal and Guide said:
This statement embraces in its entirety the logic of the argument advanced for a more generous participation in the masses of our group in the economies of our country. It is the underlying social thought which compels a more serious consideration of the combining to edge us out of opportunities to earn a livelihood commensurate with the average prosperity of the country. Those of the employing class who deliberately shut out from their payrolls colored workers are unconsciously fostering a system of unbound economies, for they are promoting a system of economic disparity among the people that must ultimately react to the detriment of the whole. Unless the Negro worker is given fair consideration in the dispensing of jobs, a reduction of his living standards is inevitable in the cities of greatly subnormal living standard with attendal diseases, crime and general unrest among our mass population is anything but pleasant.
And yet most of the great public service corporations like the General Electric Company are refusing economic opportunity to the Negro ostensibly on account of his color because it might cause dissatisfaction among their white employees.

The colored department of the Travelers Aid Society assisted three hundred refugees from the storm area in securing passage to other cities and in cooperation with the Red Cross furnished 600 meals contributed by various cafes and individuals in the city.
The disposition of the members of the race to exercise the faculty of self-help and to look after their own sufferers is commensable. The action of the Jacksonville group is an example of what can be done by well-directed effort.
An unusual incident of the political campaign in Chicago elicited the following comment from the Chicago Bte:

The Story of Lee Battle
But the state of the battle and the friend is not in the state but the state of the "neither" that is being shouted from political platforms and whispersed in political arguments by those who are striving desperately to fire racial hatreds to gain a political end
VOTE EARLY AVOID RUSH
Vote the whole. Republican ticket, under emblem of the Eagle, from Hoover for President, Ottinger for Governor, down to the candidate for Assemblyman in your Assembly District.
The "Smith-for President Colored League," women's division, tendered a lunchroom at which Judge William J. Lindsey, Democratic candidate for state's attorney, was a guest, and made a speech in the interest of his candidacy. He reported by his own authentic, he should be awarded a Royal Palm, presented with a set of decorated dice, and elected to honorary membership in the African Golf Association, unincorporated. The judge is declared to have assured the ladies present that "I don't believe in interference with a friend's craps, commonly called African Golf." It was not reported whether the ladies were cheered or chilled by the promise of this modest concession by the Democratic aspirant for state attorney, or whether this condescending consideration and assurance of non-interference with their implied principal pastime, craps, will give the impression for new loot such as the "Five-Man Colored Women," "Seven Enen and Lindsey," "Lindsey Guarantees, African Golf," "Elect Lindsey and Legalize Craps."
Many colored women who were present at that lunchroom and those that were hot, were duly impressed with the judge's impressive shots. They think his dice were "loaded." In real coup by Judge Lindsey to appeal the intelligence of his auditors and establish a precedent for campaigners addressing colored women.
To put it more plainly, the Chicago judge pulled a boner and helped the cause of his Republican opponent.
Discussing the reverses encountered by the missionary movement of the churches in recent years, the Washington Sun, a recent newcomer to the Negro press, said:
Dr. E. Clarence Miller, treasurer of the United Lutheran Church in America, reports to the Board of American Missions that every African converted to the Lutheran faith costs the church $50,000, and suggests that the Liberian mission work in Africa be dropped. He also says that the cost of a single conversion in China is $450, and in Japan this rate, who can estimate the expense and money that the Christian church will have in order to redeem Africa and China and Japan? Without doubt it is becoming increasingly difficult to convert the "heathen" to Christianity by the methods at present in vogue. It is much easier to convert people to Christian living by what one does than by what one says it has to do. A Lutheran church $50,000 convert one African only God knows what it has cost the poor African, who must have been hored to the point of exhaustion while the conversion was in progress.
The fact that the missionary has to: often been the preliminary to the run runner and the trades has weakened the confidence of the heathen in his good intentions.
Setting forth the need of a school to teach white speakers how to appear before colored audiences the St. Luke Hirald of Richmond add.
These contacts are - absolutely necessary for the best understanding between the two races. They will always be some ways and means perpetuating this medium of contest.
The strangest thing in the wild. Why is it that a white person instead address a Negro audience without making fool of herself of oneself. What is it in them that pries it so difficult for them to leap an common sense approach within offending their Negro hearers?
"You people." "You. I like. A slap in the face could not be beaten insulting ideas. They assume that Negroes are of some very different class of citizens. They seem to think that they are coming in some far off countries to rank leaders. Negro speakers to white diences do not fall into these blinds when they have an opportunity to address white audiences. Negro seldom offend their white audience. They seem to know better.
The best way for such speech to acquire knowledge to by art contact with the people whom it are addressing. They need to be lightened as to the actual status the race as a part of humanity.
Under the somewhat misleading headline, "Jim Crow Dinner Off the Washington Tribune told how church convention changed its plans when a Washington hotel refused to serve its colored members. It said, Plans for the annual banquet of the Foreign Missiones (committee of the Presbyterian Churches of Washington and Vichinity) which was scheduled to take place at the Wollard Hotel here were suddenly changed when the hotel refused to accommodate three Negro members, the Rev. H. B. Taylor pastor of Fifteenth Street Church, announced. Sunday, Coverers were to be laid according to plans of the committee the Rev. Taylor is a member, but the hotel refused to consent to the colored members being served due to a ruling of the Waterland Union here not to serve misogynies. The banquet will be held at the Metropolitan Presbyterian Church, white, of which the Rev Freely Rohr is the pastor, on the night of October 30.
This committee of Presbyterian adopted the only decent course possible for genuine Christian. It is an improvement over the former practice of requiring the colored members to withdraw in the interest of harmony.
CHURCH ACTIVITIES IN GREATER NEW YORK
Grace Church of Harlem
A large portion of the congregation came out to attend an unusually fine service at Grace Church on Sunday morning.
Dr. A. C. Garner read the lesson after A. C. Garner, Herbert Angle, the morning prayer. A torrent and soul stirring sermon was preached by Dr. Garner, who took his text from Mark 5:20. The entire sermon was a lesson in itself, but the main theme was that when all else has failed and the soul is seized and anguish is felt, the sermon must be Jeans "for Life Assurance" that only he can give.
the choir, as usual, sing in a most pleasing manner under the direction of Miss Jeter. Hugo Born, the church organist, who has been spending the summer in the Virgin Islands, will be in his place at the church when she will direct as formerly her work throughout the summer deserves the highest praise.
After, the morning service, Dr. Garner called a meeting of the Bazaar Committee and the following ladies were asked and expressed a willingness to serve: Mesdames Alton, Mitcham, Virginia Fronenberger, Flora P. Hall, Gertrude Forrester, J. V. Bright, M. Brooks, George Murphy, M. Fitchet, M. Williams, Doris Chambers and Myrtle Chambers. The general committee consists of Dr A. C. Garner, Mesdames Helen Hammond and Elizabeth H. Davis and Perry W. Bean. There will be Tuesday evening at 8. The bazaar is to be held from November 12—10 inclusive.
Church school convened at 4:15 with W. Herbert King as superintendent, and a goodly attendance of teachers and children. There were, a number of new students enrolled which was most encouraging. The banniere class, and M. Martin's collection, and M. King's class for attendance.

Mother Zion Church
Services at Mother Zion Church were largely attended last Sunday morning, "The Autumn Leaves" was Dr. Brown's sermon subject. He took his text from Isaiah 4:16 and said in part: "Autumn leaves are here again with their foliage of erase and brown. As we go on our errand, we will see them lying in our path. They remind us that we are in the land of the dying as well as the living. This season with its falling leaves bring to our minds the words of the prophet—"We all do fade as a leaf." Let not the leaves speak to us in vain. As the sunshine, atmosphere you give life to the leaves, may you give grace of God give life to you. May your faith bring richly. My unsaved brother, my unsaved sister, come. Give your hearts to God and unite with His Church. Live the life of the righteous and die the death of the Saint. We need to make this preparation now. Human life, unlike the leaf, has no fixed time to fade. We know the life of the falling leaf, but the time of the falling leaf and departing of the spirit we do alone. At the close of the service one person united with the church.

Bethel A. M. E. Church
~ The Young People's Lyceum met in four, o'clock and listened to a very interesting and instructive address delivered by John W. Schenck, Assistant U. S. District Attorney of Boston, Mass. He advised ardent support of the Republican Party, which he said would power and said that a vote for Alfred E. Smith is a vote to place in office the Bourbon South with all its lynching, disfranchisement and jimmy-worship. He also said Tammany Hall represents all that is unit and unjust and unfair; that Governor Smith has only made two minor appointments or colored men during four terms he has served the State.
Mr. Schenck further said that our only hope for aHerbert Hoover, and he traced how Hoover had aided the flood sufferers in the recent disaster of the South. He was frequently interrupted with aphause. His official brief was in charge of the program and Miss Vincece Gaines presided.

A large and appreciative audience attended the services at Bethel Sunday morning. The pastor selected as his text Acts 16:30, the theme was "The Fortune Teller." The preacher said, in part, when we try to fathom the depth of our soul, we shall ask what can we be saved, when we try to realize the exaltation and the external glory of saved souls, we may all ask the same question. We must all come to the end of the journey someday. Are you prepared for it? Salvation is not only possible and important but profitable. Believe in the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and you shall be saved. You will be fulfilled; there are temptations to-day for the Christians similar to those for still harter body and soul for dollars. The moment you believe, you are saved. There is therefore now no condemnation to them who are in

The Gospel Peas, which was carried out through the last week, the services being conducted by Rev. W. W. Monroe, assistant pastor of Abyssinian Baptist Church, was inspired practical use. Rev. Monroe brought messages to the church and gave Jesus and He himself according to the laws laid down. At 11 o'clock last Sunday morning, Dr. G. M. Oliver continued the carrying out of a well laid plan by delivering a beautiful sermon on "Burden Bearing." The subject, was divided into three parts and was based on text Galatians 6: 5; 6: 2; and Psalm 55: 22. In the three-fold subject (1) "He Help"; (2) "He Help"; (3) "He Help" one could easily find implications of a great and true Christian spirit and the application of the text to everyday life.
In the afternoon, Rev. A. C. Sanders, pastor of Bethel Church, and his choir, with Prof. Vanderyall as took charge of the services. Needles to say all who came, he needed to be no more than the Pentite - St. Luke 23:42-43 be no more vividly portrayed than it was in this discourse and our hearts burned within us as he talked, with us by the way.

Andrews jr. spoke at leight upon "The Negro of America, after which there was a general dissatisfaction of the one of the most interesting and beneficial of our meetings. The next meeting will be Sunday, November 11, at 4:30 sharp. The program for that meeting is being arranged by Rt. Rev. R. C. Ransom, presiding bishop of the 13th Episcopal district of the A. M. E. Church. A vix clock. Class No. 5 presented splendid musical program under direction of Mrs. Daisy Wheldon.
The choir, under direction of Herbert Allen, rendered its regular monthly musical at 8 o'clock. The members of the choir seemed to be at their best and a real musical feast, was enjoyed by the splendid congregation. Our celebration will continue until Monday, November 12, at which time will be an all-star concert and general reception. Sunday, November 4, the pastor will preach and communion will be served morning and evening. All are welcome.
Mount Olivet Baptist Church
In acceptance of an invitation, the early Sunday morning praying bands of Mt. Olivet Baptist Church and Little Mt. Zhon went up to St. Paul Baptist church on them at West 12:30 and they then met on West 12:40 bands of bands of Aisyn, St. Marian, Bethel and others. There was a prayer service, long to be remembered. Afterwards, a delicious breakfast of fish, chicken. French-fried potatoes, bread, butter, cake, coffee, tea and coffee was seen in the dining room of a beautiful dining room of the church. Their hospitality shall never be forgotten.
At the 11 o'clock service at Mt. Olivet Church, there was a large attendance. Charles H. Simmons sang a tenor solo. Dr. Charles Monton of Cape Charles, Va., a personal friend of our pastor, preached from Luke 23:21:22; "But they cried, Crucify him, crucify him, And he said unto them the third time, Why, what evil hath he done? I have found no cause of death in him." He spoke of the fickness of public opinion and littered it by being benefited by the good works of Jesus and how they praised Him one day and the next day joined in the mob, crying "Crucify Him." The description of the climb up the mountain with the heavy cross on Hls back was wild.
The Sons and Daughters of North Carolina had their seventh annual saturn at the evening service. Be-

THE material contrast between the structures with which Booker T. Washington began and the present great, ample and commodious and amenable to himself and his family is to bring about. But satisfactory and encouraging as this is, it is but an imperfect measure of Dr. Washington's work and act of envision. The education himself is inadequate and infinitely lacking, man is for lived useful to themselves and their family is of course a commandable and helpful work, but that was only one part of what he did and sought to do. His purpose was to radiate from a center like Tuskegee Island to the body but living in living life which must form the real advance of his race, or for any race—WILLIAM HOWARD TAPT, Thief Justice United States Supreme Court.

Miss Lucy Bl Exum was mistress of ceremonies. The synopsis of the history of the society was given by Mrs. Suie B. Sharp. The sermon subject, "Kindness," by the pastor, Rev. W. P. Hayes, was touching in its appeal, causing one to examine himself. He chose his text from 1832. Be ye kind one to another." The uncle said, "prejudice between a individual, races, etc., was shown plainly, he made the appeal of placing ourselves in the position of the other person. He摸了 the oneness of human nature and explained that consequences of kind actions are two-fold, reflecting upon the first person as well as the second.
There were ramarks made by the president, Mira. Lucretia. Wilson. Presentations were made to the pastor, solist, organist, sexton and pontarist. The collection of $30.50 was given to the trustees for the church.
Rev. Hayes, in commenting on the State of North Carolina, spoke of its giving to New York its first and second colored policemen, first colored Assemblyman, and of hoping it will give it the first colored Congressman.
Deacon Warner read a report of the three years ago by the group to date, giving a total of $9,852.02.
Three people joined the church and the collection of the day was $11,753.47. This amount includes the various loans as well as the drive money turned in by groups.
2nd 7th Day Adv. Church
"Just as surely as the Sabbath day is the Lord's Day, just so surely is the prayer meeting night, the Lord's Night." These were Pastor Strachan's introductory words to his morning sermon last Saturday at eleven o'clock. The pastor chose for his theme, "The Church Prayer Meeting"; and he based his remarks upon the words of Matthew 18:19-20, which head: "Where two or three are gathered together in my room and shall agree as touching anything that I am doing there I am in the midst of them." The pastor continued: "The definite arrangement for believers to meet in one place each week for united prayer is a divine arrangement; it is a specific appointment of the Lord."
"The prayer meeting hour is a part of the fundamental and unchangeable law of a church. Nothing else in its weekly program; can take its place. Some churches have abandoned their regular weekly prayer mission and as a consequence, they have lost consciousness of the Divine prescience.
"The prayer meeting measures the spiritual temperature of the church. It develops the power and individual grace of the believer. It is in the prayer meeting that the church in its weakness and helplessness leans upon its God for strength. It is there that the church, in its unhelpless and uncleansed virginity, meets the prayer meeting the church soaring upward like, an eagle; it represents the church as a restless wandering dove clinging to its repose. Here is where the imprisoned soul escapes to the upper realms and bathes its face in the sunlight of the eternal.
What an inspiring sight to see an imprisoned congregation on benched knee in prayer, in whose face are some of the things the members should come together and pray for."
"In the regular weekly prayer meeting, everyone present, young and old, should take a part. One may read, and another pray. One may testify, and another testify: all should do something no nails should be sealed or silent.
THE

"The place of a regular, willing prayer service should earl the reputation of being a House Of Prayer For All Nations. The biggest limit of business carried on in a church should be in prayer. We depend on this holy priest in creating in-ordinate to the business. Prayer should be one of the distinguishing characteristics of God's people. If there is something above another that church folks neglect, it is their prayers. Wonderful possibilities are warranted in the weekly convocation for prayer. A prayer meeting proceeded Pentecost and a mighty prayer meeting must go before the next outpouring of the Holy Spirit in these last days.

Mr. Fox's Harlem gymnasium is equipped with the latest apparatus for reducing, among the famous Pilates Universal Gymnasium, invented by a well known German and which is declared to be the last word in body-building, beautifying and reducing machine.
Howard Loses To West Virginia, 7-21
Washington, D. C.—The Bison aggregation of Howard University Saturday was defeated by the Yellow Jackets of West Virignia College Institute at the Howard Stadium, 21-7. The West Virginia first touchdown occurred within one minute after the kickoff, when on the very first play, Washington recovered Ross' fumble on Howard's 35 yard line and galloped through an open field for the initial score.
Confusion of the nonplussed Bisons was only increased in the second quarter when Stevenson, the Keystone right tackle, blocked Jones' punt and recovered the ball, carrying it 40 yards for the second count. Scott again booted the pigskin for the extra credit.
During the entire half West Virginia, though unable to gain a first down, broke through Howard's line to smear almost every formation. The half ended with the ball in the Bison's possession on their own 15-yard line. Beginning the second half, Jack Young was substituted for Wilson at fullback and Payne for Coles at quarter. Howard received the kickoff and advanced the ball through grim determination, aided by a 35-yard run by Jack Young. With the ball on the Yellow Jackets 5-yard line, within the first five minutes of play of this half, Howard was held for downs
West Virginia kicked out of danger to Shelton on their own 35 yard line, Marshall taking the ball around left end for first down on the next play. Through successive end runs of Marshall, Simpson and Ross, with a line-plunge by Ross, the ball was placed in position to score, the Howard captain crushing through the line for Howard's first and only count. Pavne kicked for the extra point.
The remainder of the quarter, as well as the rest of the game, was marred by excessive penalties. Howard suffering the loss of 70 yards as against 5 for the visitors. With the aid of repeated penalties, West Virginia was again placed in position to score from Howard's 5 yard-line, from which point, by repeated thrust, Scott carried the ball over the final count. The extra point was counted by reason of Howard's offside play.
HAMPTON SWAMPS LINCOLN IN 1ST GAME IN 4 YEARS Seasiders Pile Up Score Of 36 to 6 Against Pennsylvanians
By JAMES B. CLARKE
Hampton Inst.—The Lincoln University Lions roared and roared loud, but 'ere' the day had passed that roar was reduced to a tender purr by Coach Gid Smith's Blue and White Seasiders. His men piled up a mountainous score of 36 points to Lincoln's 6 in the Armstrong Field Stadium here last Saturday. The game's final result might have been far different could those first fifteen minutes of the game have been stretched into the full hour when power, drive, and stanina was so necessary to withstand the constant plugging, ramming, and driving of those mighty backs and line of the Seaside Eleven.
Lincoln gained a score and led the Seasiders in the first quarter of the game, thanks to the work of Clark and Lemar. Lincoln's passing combination, but it seemed that this mighty work of an extremely light team could not possibly last against such a heavy charging, experienced line. Hampton was not long shaking off the jinx that held them spellbound in those first fifteen minutes of the game
It was during the first quarter of the bitter contest that Hampton's line functioned at its height. Great gaps and crevices were opened while Baker, that stocky fullback from the prairies, and Dutz Baker, third of the famous house of Baker, ran through Lincoln's plucky barrier for constant gains. A touchdown was in sight when Jones broke through and crossed the line, only to be penalized 15 yards for roughness. Here Lincoln's forward defense stiffened and Baker was forced to make a place-kick from the 18 yard line for the first 3 points of the game, Lincoln, the Lion-hearted, ever the fighting creature of the forest, was not downhearted.
Clark Runs 60 Yards For
Lincoln's Score
Atter the place-kick, Hampton kicked to Lincoln behind the goal; the ball was brought out on the 20 yard line. From that point Jackson of Lincoln ran through Hampton's team for 20 yards, thereby putting Lions 60 yards from the goal. Then came the surprise of the day. Lamar received the ball and made a short pass to Clarke of Lincoln, who wiggled through a broken field, Allen took Byrd out and left the field clear, and Clarke crossed the goal line for 6 points.
From that point on the Lion roar became fainter and fainter as Hampton's Blue and White machine swept everything before them. Hampton's second score came in the second quarter; McGowan covered a fumble made by Lemar, on the 20 yard line, and it might have resulted in a score, but Jones fumbled on the one yard line Lincoln, took the ball and kicked out, only to be faced with the same drive, which was this time to result in touchdown. After much gaining Baker relied off 18 yards and placed the ball in the 4 yard line. Jones then carried it across for the second score

Lincoln-Howard Game At Griffith Stadium
Washington, D. C.—Because of the ever increasing crowds and the desire of the Howard Board of Athletic Control to provide adequate accommodations for its patrons, the Lincoln-Howard game, previously scheduled for the Howard Stadium, is to be played in the Griffith Stadium instead. Although 15,000 people can be crowded in the Howard Stadium with the use of circus seats, the experience of two years ago revealed the fact that the stands are altogether too small to provide boxes and reserved seat sections to meet the demands of the patrons
The Griffith Stadium will seat comfortably, 30,000 people, with adequate boxes and reserved seats. Tickets will be on sale both at Howard and Lincoln Universities, and in various cities to be announced very soon after November 1. It is not too early now to secure reservations by addressing Dr. Emmett J. Scott, business manager Board of Athletic Control, Howard University, Washington, D. C. General admission, which is confined to the concrete stands, is $1. Grand stand seats will be $1,50 and box seats will be $2. Numerous applications have already been received, though there is ample accommodation in both Howard and Lincoln sections

Mrs. Downs To Present The Negro Art Theatre Players At The Lincoln
Within the past few weeks the dramatic element in the local theatres has been stretched to such a point one cannot be far from the truth in coming to the conclusion that theatre owners in the community are seriously giving a thought to this form of entertainment along with thoughts of better revues.
In the face of what Mrs Maria C. Downs, owner of the Lincoln Theatre on 135th street, has tried to do in meeting the demands of scores of people in Harlem, it is hard to believe that there have been times when rival theatre owners would intimate that Mrs. Downs would not go out of her way to give a varied form of entertainment at her theatre.
Everything worth while in the theatre has had its start at the Lincoln, and despite the reverses suffered at times because of the implicit trust which she has had in a number of those pulling against the traces when given a free hand. Mrs Downs has never hesitated when she has been convinced of the appropriateness of offering something different. To that end she has engaged the New Negro Art Theatre
Players to present one of the outstanding sketches at the Lincoln next week.
Lacking the support which an intelligent community should gave to their efforts, these players have, mispeit of many obstacles, held true to the art of dramatic presentations, and what they have already done in the field of amateur theatricals have won the praise of some of the best minds, both white and colored "The Rider of Dreams" will come to the Lincoln on Monday, with a cast made up of some performers who are designated as amateurs, but who could drive some of the so-called professionals from the stage.
These things found so much favor in the past the idea was hit upon by others coming here to win the favor of the colored people, so that it is not too much to ask that the new venture by Mrs. Downs be given the support which will make it possible for her to retain the company selected to appear in the coming playlet.

MONARCH BAND PLAYS PROGRAM IN ITS SECOND SUNDAY CONCERT OF INTEREST
The second Sunday, afternoon concert of the Mi-Tee Monarch Band, Leuut, Fred W. Simpson, conductor, was played at the Girl's Junior High School on Sunday afternoon, October 28, at 3 o'clock, before an audience that was far too small in numbers, but enthusiastic in appreciation.
The program, of nice balance and general interest, displayed to an unusual degree the versatility and flexibility of the bandsmen. For instance, there was the massive fantasia of airs from Verdi's great Egyptian opera, "Aida," given with forceful power, followed immediately by the tender and delicate airs, "Un peu d'amour" by Sjlesu and Fitelbert Nevins' little poem of the flowers. "Narcissus," both played with unusual and intriguing sympathy.
Leuut Simpson, long established as a trombone virtuoso, delighted the audience with a programed number, "Three Star Polka," by Bagley, and an added number, a transcription of Bartlett's beautiful song, "A Dream," with full band accompaniments. The first number, as its name indicates, afforded ample scope to the player's technical mastery of the instrument, and it is a "show piece," pure and simple. The Bartlett number, differing from the Polka as night does from day, was played in musicianly style, with tenderness and passion.
The speaker for the afternoon was the Rev. Dr. James W. Brown, pastor of Mother A. M. E. Zion Church, who gave an eloquent and interesting disquisition upon music, its relationship to life and its effect upon the human creature. The minister painted word pictures of exquisite beauty, and emphasized the fact that music and godliness are twin developments.
The solist for the concert was Miss Dayse Harding, soprano of the Mt. Olivet Baptist Church choir, with Miss Jean Nichols as accompanist. Miss Harding sang two numbers, displaying a voice of voluptuous beauty, but not altogether in control. Especially effective was her singing of Tostil's "Goodbyy."
Other band numbers were a march, "The Spirit of St. Louis" by Woods, a fantasia, "Albion," by Baetens, introducing airs of Scotland, Ireland and England; a Divertissement Espagnol by Desormes, consisting of four Spanish dances, Seguidilla, Habanera, Bolero de Cadiz and Cachuca, and a descriptive number, "The Wedding of Heinie and Kathrin," by Alfred, humoresque in structure, introducing a number or word and unusual instrumental effects.
As is always the case, Monarch Band opened its program with the Star Spangled Banner," and closed with "Auld Lang Syne," the audience standing for both numbers.
Alderman Fred R. Moore, who is treasurer of the fund which is the result of voluntary contributions from the public, admirers and friends of the band, for the purpose of providing a full contingent of the band for the free summer open air park concerts, was present and announces an addition of $7 to the fund. There had already been acknowledged the sum of $19.05. The additional contributions are as follows.

Already a distinguished figure in the musical world, with high ranking as pianist, organist, teacher and composer, Carl Diton, for a number of years residing in Philadelphia, is now in New York, where he plans to remain for the purpose of studying singing under a scholarship granted by the Juilliard Musical Foundation for a course in the Institute of Musical Art.
Mr. Diton, who served as president of the National Association of Negro Musicians during last year, has just completed a transcontinental concert tour that lasted from October, 1927, to July, 1928, during which he covered 33,000 miles, concertizing in forty of the United States. The trip was made by auto, and the artist was accompanied by Mrs. Diton, his wife.
There were 140 concert engagements filled by Mr. Diton, in the form of lecture recitals, 85 of which were vocal, 45 on piano and organ, and 10 a combination of voice and instruments.
Comments by music reviewers in all sections of the country show that the work of Mr. Diton in the various lines of effort were of the highest order, and that he made fine impressions as instrumentalist, vocalist and lecturer. Both the "Diapason," a Chicago magazine devoted to the organ, and "Musical America" of New York City, have praised his work as a composer, and Alberta Jonas, teacher of piano, commended his ability as a teacher, whining: "I take pleasure in stating that I have found your pupil excellently prepared so that it was not necessary for me to have to undo anything in his mode of playing. I gladly bring you this, my appreciation, of the excellent work that, as a teacher, you have accomplished."
Following upon the termination of his nine months tour, Mr. Diton made application to the Juilliard Foundation for granting of a scholarship for a course in singing. He was granted an audition on October 2, and enrolled as a student on October 16.
This scholarship carries periods of instruction under some of the best known instructors in New York City, including Lamson, voice, Brockway, theory; Wedges, ear training, English diction, Miss Flurgeal, Italian diction, Mine, Toledo; and lectures by Chas. J. Deeger and W. L. Henderson.
During his stay in Philadelphia, Mr. Duton studied voice for three years with Perley Dunn Aldrich, and for two years was a piano pupil on the late Constantine Sternberg. He served as assistant-director of St. Thomas P. E. Church and of Zoar M. E. Church, and operated a private music studio at 432 North 53rd street. Mr. and Mrs. Duton are now residing at 880 St. Nicholas avenue.

MUSIC NOTES
Roland Hayes To Sing
In New York Nov. 15
Roland Hayes, the race's most distinguished tenor, is again in the United States for a winter's concert season, and will be heard in New York for the first time in two seasons, when he appears at Carnegie Hall on Thursday evening. November 15.
Other than for a fly, to this country on personal business, Mr. Hayes spent the past season in Europe resting and studying after several years of strenuous activities. But, notwithstanding that he had planned absolute inactivity during the season of 1927-28, he was compelled by force of insistent demand, to appear in concert in a number of countries in Europe where he had not lithered to be heard. And according to reports his singing created an even greater furore than on former occasions. His 1928-29 tour will take him to sections of this country which he has not been able to visit in recent years, and indications are that he will be given a fine reception wherever he sings.

ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS
By PERCIVAL OUTRAM
The Vitaphone has reached Harlem, and like every innovation, seems to strike against a certain class of workers, uprooting standards and diverting their revenue. In the case of these sound pictures, there is no doubt about the demoralizing effect on a large mass of musicians who have the prospect of being summarily dismissed from their jobs, with a dim vision of employment in a similar class of work. A booking agent on Broadway is responsible for the statement that to his knowledge, thirteen moving picture houses have served the customary two weeks notice to the orchestras engaged. Their places will be filled by the sound device mechanism.
The Paramount, Roxy's, The Capitol, among others in the movie cathedral class, are not working their orchestras full time—although all the men get their full weekly salary. The orchestras in these high class places play a prelude to the picture, but when the picture hits the screen, the sound device starts to function and the musicians take a rest. This is considered by some musicians as a gradual education of the public to the "canned music." And when the college course is complete, out goes the musician. If we figure on the theory that every time a musician of the opposite race loses a job it makes it harder for us, it is a serious matter to contemplate the solution of the fact.
Right in Harlem has this nemis is reared its mechanical scientific head to disrupt and change the past order of things for the colored musician—The Renaissance Theatre will, in a few weeks, open its doors as a talking, playing picture house. Installation is nearly completed. Don David had an orchestra selected to go in the Renaissance, starting week of October 22, but the management cancelled the order and decided on movie-tone.
The action of the Renaissance in getting ahead of its other competitors, will surely accelerate the other picture houses in Harlem in the installation of the device.
This writer knows, because he was personally informed by a manager, that the M. & S., who, by the way, have added many more houses to their chain," was thinking of "enlarging the orchestra or putting in the "Vitaphone." The action of the Renaissance will stop the "thinking" and start the installation.
So Harlemites will have four theatres in a very short area with Vitaphones. The Douglass will lose seven musicians; the Roosevelt five; and possibly the Odeon, four. This is the only house of the M. S. continuing its vaudeville policy. Including the Renaissance, here is a total of 22 musicians, who will be added to the flood of unoccupied colored musicians.
But the elimination of the musician is not confined to picture houses. The Dance field is being intruded on. The past summer, a large amusement park, at Coney Island, that previously engaged a temple orchestra, for the dance hall, installed a radio with an amplifier which gave such complete satisfaction that future seasons may find other employers of musicians, using the same device. And who knows whether some enterprising individual is not now concentrating on a system whereby local dance halls, can get the best dance music from a central radio spot, this central station employing conductors and musicians of such calibre that a single employer could not successfully pay the fee of the large orchestra
Loral 802 can do nothing but watch and wait, and advise no extended contracts with mechanical companies
Musicians working regularly in theatres have for several weeks past been taxed two per cent of their weekly salary The Lafayette Theatre has been exempt from this tax because each week a new show and a new orchestra goes in. But all musicians working at the theater must pay the tax to Local 802; for benefit of the strike fund
It might be news to many musicians to know that Charles Matson, musician and booking agent, who has given a number of musicians work, has just joined the Union To celebrate the event apparently, he has just filed a claim against one of his erstwhile best friends.
It is many years since Allie Ross left the position as conductor of Connee's Inn orchestra, Hugh Davis used to be drummer when Allie was conductor. When Allie left, Davis remained for awhile under Leroy Tibbs, now Davis has filed charges against Ross claiming money due and for overtime. Another case of the best of friends getting in a tall spin

Why I Am For AL SMITH
try must fight out their deatiny in the localities where they live. Nearly half of the colored people in the United States now reside north of the Mason Dixon Line. There they are confronted by new problems and new conditions. If they make intelligent uses of their suffrage in their new homes, there will never arise in the North the problem that still confronts the South. In the great cities and industrial centers of the North, we must make common cause politically with the workers with whom we are identified industrially and economically. The great majority of these workers realize that their interests will be best served by the election of Governor Smith and they are supporting his candidacy. If we are to survive industrially and economically in the North, we must have the good will of the working classes. We can do much to gain this good will by helping to elect Governor Smith, the candidate for President, whose election will best serve the interest and welfare of the working people.
I thought your statement in Crisis strong and wise in fore-sight. The collection of Lily White Semp by Goolidge and again by Hoover is most dangerous sign of their party program. Another white primary in South dominated by Ku Klux bigotry would foreclose Negro hopes for a generation or more. I fully sympathize with profound hesitation of Negro to vote Democratic, but until he votes on conviction of sound principles and with workers for human leaders, he remains chattel of Republican bosses as Harlem primaries show. Their vote must become valuable for its judgment and conscience. The balance of power is the important factor in our two-party system. Socialists can have no power in this country in our time. Your ten per cent of the people can count by using their keen intuitions freed from prejudice. I think your letter ought to be reprinted in The New York Age this week.
As long as the Negro vote is the property of one political party he can not use it to his own advantage. He can use it to his own advantage only if he divides it. In the coming election, colored voters should give their suffrage to Governor Smith if for no other reason than to establish the fact that they are politically independent. The ballot is the most potent weapon we have in our fight for the recognition of our constitutional rights. We must use this weapon. If we prove at this election that we are conscious of the power of our ballot and regard it as our own property and not the property of the Republican party, we shall not only earn the respect of the Nation, but we shall place ourselves in a position of strategic advantage politically.
WHY I AM FOR AL SMITH
WHY I AM FOR AL SMITH
The election of Governor Smith offers a reasonable hope for the modification of the prohibition laws. It is utterly impossible for an honest, intelligent, well-informed person to be a sincere advocate of prohibition. The honest and intelligent people who sincerely advocate it simply do not know the facts. Before the curse of Prohibition was inflicted on this country, Negro workers in the North were becoming more temperate. They were abandoning the use of whiskey and gin and drinking instead beer and ale. Prohibition has compelled them to return to the use of whiskey and gin. Hundreds of gallons of poisonous alcoholic liquors sold as whiskey and gin are being consumed in Harlem every day. The ravages which such liquors are making upon the health and physical well-being of the Negro worker in Harlem cannot be estimated. Physicians there observe that certain diseases are rapidly increasing and they assert that the probable effect on the next generation through the use of alcoholic poisons presents a most alarming question. Thousands of sub-normal infants, it is said, will be born as a direct result of the use of such liquors by the parents of those infants. On this issue alone, Governor Smith deserves the support of his fellow citizens in Harlem; and if conditions in other great cities even approximate those in Harlem, the Negro voter in every great city should vote for the election of Governor Smith for President.
By FERDINAND Q. MORTON Commissioner, Municipal Civil Service (In the Crisis Magazine for November)
The election of Governor Smith would be a fine victory for the cause of tolerance and fair play in America. The moral tone of the whole nation would be better for such a triumph; and every American who suffers from the effects of religious bigotry and racial hatreds would be a beneficiary. The Negro could not be denied participation in these benefits, for the quickened ethical perceptions of the nation—of which such a victory would be a definite indication—would make such exclusion impossible. The colored voter realizes this. He realizes also that it would be a serious blow to the cause of his race if such a victory should be achieved without his having made a substantial contribution to it. For the first time since his enfranchisement, the colored voter is confronted with an opportunity at a national election to use his suffrage for the advancement of his own cause. For the cause of tolerance and fair play is essentially his cause. I earnestly hope and firmly believe that at this election colored voters in overwhelming numbers will be found in the ranks of those Americans who are resolved to banish forever from this nation religious bigotry and racial hatred
The bigots, the morons, the prohibitionists, the Ku Klux Klansmen, the Bourbon Democrats and the lily white Republicans in the South, in short, all the forces of intolerance and hatred are earnestly striving for the election of the Republican candidate. Are they all mistaken in the belief that the election of Herbert Hoover will best serve the vile cause they represent? For one, I do not believe that they are mistaken. The colored voter will not align himself with these sinister forces against the Candidacy of Governor Smith.
Incalculable good will come to the Negro in this country if he does, by giving his suffrage to the Democratic candidate for President, prove he is conscious of his duty and obligation as an American citizen. Even in the South, where he feels most keenly the effects of racial prejudice, he will benefit. There the liberal Democrats are leading the fight for Governor Smith, while on the other hand Bourbon Reactionary Democrats and the lily white Republicans are fighting the battle of the Republican candidate. It is the liberal Democrat in the South to whom the Negro must look for fair play. This election affords the Negro voter in the North an opportunity never before enjoyed by him to help his brother in the South. It is obvious that if we in the North and West help to elect the Democratic candidate for President, the liberal Democrats in the South must inevitably as a result of such action on our part, feel more kindly toward the Negro there.
Every intelligent colored American desires to see once more in the White House a man of the type of Cleveland and Roosevelt. That is precisely the type which Governor Smith represents. He is honest, sincere and courageous. When he takes the oath as President, he will do so in the firm belief that that oath obligates him to every single American citizen alike. In his keeping as President, the rights and the liberties and the welfare of every American regardless of race, creed or color will be secure.
The intelligent colored American realizes that the Negro problem, so-called, is no longer a national political issue. He knows that colored people in this coun-

THINGS SEEN, HEARD, AMONG PULLMAN
BY JAMES M. NOBLE
ELECTIONS AMONG THE
The coming National election is not occupied the porters' attention during the last week, and are now having elections on preceding these elections have not been wiped out, in fact, some of their features have the coming big event. For instance, the whispering, the accusation of crying-out of intolerance floating around prior to one of which was the P. P. B. A. election of Employee Representation election, while fairness, however, it cannot be said that the accusations have prevailed in the Pullman made only to what was heard and observed district.
In this district, the porters take a notions, especially the P. P. B. A. election, and for elective office is displayed. And reasons for this rivalry. To be an office honor which no porter depreciates. It is distinctions. First, it denotes that the P. P. B. A. Who" among his group. Secondly, it gives in a way, a certain prestige with the higher Ambition to be an officer in the P. P. B. A. which, it is said, many a good porter has.
A witty note referred to the Wrecker," and, although this is a misnomer, those who have been identified with the count, the term is not so ludicrous as it sometimes will hear a porter say, "I would organization," and perhaps the expression assertion is not to be taken too seriously; against doughnuts that no one has ever said he should try to be one.
But while the position of being an obviously desirable, to be a delegate to the thing is even still more desirable. This comes to have been established in the recent election of this election Tour of the best known in this district were active aspirants for C Taylor, C. H. Hunter, W. H. Goins and which had his coterie of supporters. That that the handsome and affable Mr. Roundhead had to beat, in his own words, the Machie Beside being elected as a delegate to our sessions in Chicago next month, M. chairman of the local branch in his district construed as a sign of the esteem in which of his district. Besides Mr. Roundhead, local during the ensuing year are:
J. H. Mingo, vice-chairman, W. W. J. Mingo, treasurer, W. H. Stevens, S. W. kerson constitute the sick committee.
As this article goes to press the elective on Committee "C," the porters and the Pullman Plan of Employee Representation is too obvious not to be noted that the in enthusiasm as that which marked them seem strange, for this election should be better than the other. The reason for the understood, but you will find no porter reason.
The present members of this committee J. B. Ford; W. H. Goins, T. E. Griffin and likely that these same men will be re-electors' elections for 1928.
Welfare Man Entertainer
Sam Freeman, Pullman welfare agent has several ways of enjoying himself when of his position. One of these is to have a quality of himself and wife. This was done by Hermiker street, Brooklyn on Wednesday he was the host of a score or more of his These friends, most of whom were free amply repaid for the trip to the box, we suspect that if the hospitable A. Canaris, or some other one of those island, neither distance nor the inconvenience deter his friends from accepting an offer, for that is what the affair was, last W.
To those of you who know this gentle guest at one of his dinners, take this tip pleasure—should he invite you, be sure to know not from what culinary institute graduated, but we do know that she has ing and serving food. She gave an exhibition occasion in question, and it might be advised everyone described as being perfect.
An enumeration of the menu that was here. Suffice it to say that it was so ample that the guests insisted that she come into their unanimous thanks, which were and paid in a gallant manner.
Preceding that incident brief remarks the guests on the subject of group better porter group. And while these talks were dinner, they nevertheless gave an idea of dinners.
W. C. Taylor, who is also a Brooklyn, the evening, and he fulfilled the duties of ful and pleasing manner. While speaking minds us. Every time we meet him our unmarried women friends, who are constant every time we meet one of them, that she for a husband, wanes. Here is a prosperity than Brooklyn, yet he manages to remain.
Besides Mr. Taylor, others present were ardson, L. Hodge J. H. Mingo, R. L. Waee, M. H. Day, J. B. Ford, J. H. Simpson, W. H. Scott, T. E. Wernham, J. H. Wilson, R. Ahrams and H. P. Darden.
THINGS SEEN, HEARD AND DONE AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYES
ELECTIONS AMONG THE PORTERS
The coming National election is not the only election which has occupied the porters' attention during the past month or two. They have had, and are now having elections of their own. The campaigns preceding these elections have not been without their issues and their phases; in fact, some of their features have been exact imitations of the coming big event. For instance, there have been the charges of whispering, the accusation of crying-out-loud, and even the intimation of intolerance floating around prior to each of the two elections, one of which was the P. P. B. A. election, and one the Pullman Plan of Employee Representation election, which is now in progress. In all fairness, however, it cannot be said that these pre-election charges and accusations have prevailed in all Pullman districts. Reference here is made only to what was heard and observed around the New York district.
In this district, the porters take a noticeable interest in these elections, especially the P. P. B. A. election. In this election much rivalry for elective office is displayed. And, seemingly, there are good reasons for this rivalry. To be an officer in this organization is an honor which no porter depreciates. It is an honor having definite distinctions. First, it denotes that the porter is one of the "Who's Who" among his group. Secondly, it gives him an acquaintance, and, in a way, a certain prestige with the higher ups of the Pullman service. Ambition to be an officer in the P. P. B. A. is the rock of ambition on which, it is said, many a good porter has been job wrecked. A witty porter once referred to the P. P. B. A., as the "Ambition Wrecker," and, although this is a misnomer, if the history of some those who have been identified with the association is taken into account, the term is not so ludicrous as it might sound. Of course, one sometimes will hear a porter say, "I wouldn't be an officer in the organization," and perhaps the expression is honestly meant, but that assertion is not to be taken too seriously. The chances are dollars against doughnuts that no one has ever suggested to that porter that he should try to be one.
But while the position of being an officer in the P. P. B. A. is obviously desirable, to be a delegate to the association's annual meeting is even still more desirable. This conclusion seemed more or less to have been established in the recent election. In the campaign preceding this election, four of the best known members of the association in this district were active aspirants for the honor. These were W. C Taylor, C. H. Hunter, W. H. Goins and E. C. Roundtree, each of which had his coterie of supporters. The result of this election was that the handsome and affable Mr. Roundtree was elected. And he had to beat, in his own words, "the Machine". Beside being elected as a delegate to the convention, which opens us sessions in Chicago next month, Mr. Roundtree was re-elected chairman of the local branch in his district. This dual honor may be construed as a sign of the esteem in which he is held by the members of his district. Besides Mr. Roundtree, others elected to serve the local during the ensuing year are: J. H. Mingo, vice-chairman; W. W. Wilkerson, secretary; and J. J. Mingo, treasurer; W. H. Stevens, S. W. Branham and W. W. Wilkerson constitute the sick committee.
As this article goes to press the election of representatives to serve on Committee "C", the porters and maids industrial medium, of the Pullman Plan of Employee Representation, will be nearly over. It is too obvious not to be noted that the interest in this election is not as enthusiastic as that which marked the other election. This may seem strange, for this election should be of more moment to the porters than the other. The reason for the difference is pretty well understood, but you will find no porter who is inclined to discuss this reason.
The present members of this committee are L. Hodge, chairman; J. B. Ford; W. H. Goins, T. E. Griffin and H. P. Darden. It is most likely that these same men will be re-elected. This will end the porter's elections for 1928.
Welfare Man Entertains Friends
Sam Freeman, Pullman welfare agent in the New York district, has several ways of enjoying himself when he is away from the duties of his position. One of these is to have his friends enjoy the hospitality of himself and wife. This was demonstrated at his home, 465 Herkmer street, Brooklyn on Wednesday evening, October 24, when he was the host of a score or more of his friends.
These friends, most of whom were from Harlem and Jersey City, were simply repaid for the trip to the borough across the river. In fact, we suspect that if the hospitable Mr. Freeman were living in Canarsie, or some other one of those outlying sections in Long Island, neither distance nor the inconveniences of traveling so far would deter his friends from accepting an invitation from him to dinner, for that is what the affair was last Wednesday evening.
To those of you who know this gentleman, but have never been guests at one of his dinners, take this tip from one who has had that pleasure—should he invite you, be sure to accept the invitation. We do not know from what culinary institution his admirable wite was graduated, but we do know that she has mastered the art of preparing and serving food. She gave an exhibition of her artistry on the occasion in question, and, it might be added, it was a demonstration which everyone described as being perfect.
An enumeration of the menu that was served is not necessary here. Suffice it to say that it was so ample and so artistically served that the guests insisted that she come into the serving room and receive their unanimous thanks, which were offered in appropriate words and paid in a gallant manner.
Preceding that incident brief remarks were made by various of the guests on the subject of group betterment as it applies to the porter group. And while these talks were merely incidental to the dinner, they nevertheless gave an idea of the drift of thought of the diners.
W. C. Taylor, who is also a Brooklynite, was the toastmaster for the evening, and he fulfilled the duties of that functionary in a skilful and pleasing manner. While speaking of this gentleman, it reminds us. Every time we meet him our sympathy for some of our unmarried women friends, who are constantly peering in our ears, every time we meet one of them, that she is looking for a "good man" for a husband, wanes. Here is a prospective one no farther away than Brooklyn, yet he manages to remain a bachelor.
Besides Mr. Taylor, others present were C. H. Hunter, J. O. Richardson, L. Hodge J. H. Mingo, R. L. Wade, W. H. Stevens, L. Monroe, M. H. Day, J. B. Ford, J. H. Simpson, S. J. Hilton, W. H. Goins, W. H. Scott, T. E. Wernham, J. H. Wilson, H. S. Boyd, J. H. Hogans, R. R. Abrams and H. P. Darden.

The Darlington boys played hard and understood the fundamentals of a game, but they were no match for the husky L. X. and I. I. eleven. Laurinburg started scoring in the first quarter when Edwards ran 50 yards for a touchdown. Esterling made a sweeping end run for the second touchdown in the second quarter. The half ended Laurinburg having the ball off Mayo's 10-yard line. In the third McDuffey ran 25 yards for the fourth McDuffey. Esterling made the fourth by short. Graham hit off tackle for point after touchdown Laurinburg had a much stronger line than did its opponent composed of such stars as Covington, Jackson, Marshall, Duglass, Graham, J. Bethea, A. Bethel and Morse. Robinson showed up well in right half. The game ended. 25-0. Laurinburg had outclassed Mayo from start, to finish in its third game of the season. Quinn, and Peters stood out for Mayo. Officials referee, Jones, of Benedict; umpire, Stewart of Morgan; lineman, Davis; timekeepers. Johnson and Cain.

CAMPAIGN STARTS IN BUDGET DRIVE FOR YWCA DEFICIT
If things look a bit unfamiliar in the "Y" Lobby; if there is more bustling about, than usual there; if one corner looks much, like a picture gallery and you wonder what all of this is about, the answer is that it is Campaign Time, and the campaign headquarters are in the lobby. There Miss Viola Lewis, campaign director, has her desk and is easy to reach. I inevitably this season of the year brings campaign around—with its joys and its sorrows. The budget difference must be raised now so that next year this work may go on in all its usefulness to this community. Money raising is never an easy task, but our yearly effort has its bright side. It creates fellowship between the women and girls who work in it that can only be got from doing a hard job together in a spirit of service, and it creates a fellowship between the Association and those of the community who give and who, therefore, share in making possible the vital service which this organization gives to this community.
The workers are going out on the drive this year with keen enthusiasm and high hopes. Preliminary work started with a meeting of the campaign committee, on October 11; the ministers of the Interdenominational Preachers' Union met at luncheon with the Board of Management and staff of the Branch on October 22, and voted to set aside a few moments of the morning services on November 4 for an endorsement of the work and for prayer for the success of the drive.
The campaign opened formally on Monday evening, October 29, when more than a hundred workers met for supper. The campaign leaders are as follows: Camaign chairman, Mrs. W. E. Carson; Majors: Mrs. Adah B. Thons, Mrs. Emma S. Ransom and Mrs. Watt Terry; Captains: Mrs. Ernest R. Alexander, Mrs. Joseph Grey, Mrs. Lela Kellar, Mrs. Edith W. Ryce, Mrs. Eva T. Parks, Mrs. Elizabeth S. Michael, Mrs. Alonza de G. Smith, Mrs. Viola Watson, Mrs. P. F. Anderson and Mme. V. E. Scott. Fred R. Moore, Watt Terry and W. H. Willis are proving to be of invaluable service in the campaign, both in an advisory capacity and in active service. Every night is report night during campaign, but meetings are scheduled for November 5, 8, 19, and 22. The workers will meet at 7:30 for supper on these nights

Was Very Weak New Strength, Well
Mrs. M. E. W. Weston, 205 N. Edison St. Greenville, Miss. (picture above) says:
"While in Utica (Miss.) Institute, where I graduated, I studied hard and would feel so tired, sluggish, and I didn't feel like eating, and at certain times was very weak. I didn't want to get behind my classes, and yet it was an effort to keep going.
"I remembered how Cardui helped me once, so I took it again, with splendid results. I am now strong and well, and feel that Cardui helped over time when my health might have gone down."
