The matter of the company union election was the subject of O'Connor's inquiries, who reports having talked with both Crawford at Long Island City, and with Distinct Superintendent Watson at the Pennsylvania Terminal. But Watson refused to discuss the matter or to answer any questions, declaring that all such interrogations should be addressed to the Chicago headquarters. Siy Men Are Disgruntled As to the company's attitude towards the porters on the matter of compulsory voting in the company union election, and to complaints by porters that coercive measures were being used, Watson is quoted as saying that "These complaints come from disgruntled men. The Pullman Co. is paying no attention to them. If the porters don't want to vote in the employees' election, they don't have to. I'm not forcing them to." But O'Connor reports a different reception when he called on Crawford at the Sunnyside yards. The porters there, he says, have to run the gagut of all Pullman walls are covered with posters announcing the election, and instructing porters to vote. And all the voting is done in the Pullman offices, with counting of the ballots entirely in hands of Pullman officials. And the men voted are, in most cases, unknown to the majority of workers. "Darkies" Anxious To Get Jobs Crawford, rolling back in his big chair, was the picture of unctuous complacency, talking, as one white man to another, about how fortunate the "darkies," "shines" and "nuggers" are who work for the Pullman Co. The story as told by O'Connor is succinct and elightening. "Why man, there are hundreds of darkies anxious to get these jobs. Why shouldn't our employees cooperate?" said Crawford, in acknowledging that the company expected employees to participate in company elections. People don't seem to realize what a good job a 'darkie' has with us if he keeps his manners and knows how to treat white people. Look here, a letter from a bunch of Standard Oil officials. They're going on a show, party and want two special porters. Those boys will make a wad of jack, I'm telling you. "Niggers" and "Shines" O Conner describes the scene outside of Crawford's office as that of a crowd of Negroes milling around in another large room, bare save for sham benches, scores sat around, trouble or talking. They were the employed men, waiting for runs or to file applications for work. In truthl elaborating his statements, Crawford is quoted by O Conner as saying: 'We start our men off at $72 a month if they're real smart 'niggers though they make real money. Shun men lives is usually good for two but. Meeting a passenger with a smile and taking his grips half, was down the station means and another good tip. Of course the wages don't so big, but a real clever 'shine' can make good.' Superintendent Crawford declared that at least 98 per cent of the employees would cast their votes, which were tallied as cast by BROTHERHOOD OF PORTERS BUYING ITS OWN HOME Will Take Possession Of New Quarters On December 1 What is regarded as a refutation of the rumors that the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters is losing ground, is the announcement from the headquarters, at 2311 Seventh avenue, by A Philip Randolph, president and general organizer, that the Union is purchasing its own home and plans to move into it the first of December. The property which will be the future home of the Porters' Union is located i none of the choicest and most desirable sections of the community. According to President and Organizer Randolph, the Chicago division moved into its home at 4231 ber 1. This policy of the Union is to buy homes is an indication of stability, and it is believed will contribute towards winning recognition from the Pullman Co. clerks in Chattanooga, Tennessee. General Organizer Randolph of the Brotherhood advised porters to refrain from voting, pointing out that the company is able to perpetuate its company union control only by compelling the porters and maids to vote for company named candidates, even though the Brotherhood has a majority of the 12,000 porters and maids enrolled in its ranks. Big Political Rally Held In Syracuse, N. Y. Syracuse, N. Y.—One of the biggest rallies of the campaign was here Thursday night, November 1, at Bethany Baptist Church, 608-10 East Washington street, when Alderman Fred R Moore of New York was the principal speaker. The meeting was arranged by W. R Goodrich for the Frederick Douglass Republican Club, and Green Banks, district manager of the Tanners Shoe Manufacturing Co., was the presiding officer. Mr. Moore was given a rousing ovation and the meeting was highly enthusiastic. Police will arrest all boys caught riding on the rear of Street cars—judges will impose fines. Parentr are held responsible if they do not warn their boys of the danger to life.

Waterbury, Conn.-Alderman Fred P. Moore of New York City was given a big reception by Waterbury Republicans on the occasion of his address here on Saturday evening, October 27. Mr. Moore emphasizes the need of racial loyalty urging the Negro voters to support the party which has always treated them with tolerance and consideration. Mr. Moore declared that if the Democrats should be victorious, the cause of the Negro would be humbled. The Rev. Harry B. Beleicher, pastor of the First M. E. Church, asserted that while Hoover had declared for law enforcement, Smith has proven by his record that he will not enforce the law if elected Joseph Hatcher presided at the meeting which was held in the A. M. E. Zion Church, the Rev. James H. D. Bailey, pastor. Attorney A. C. Logan of Little Rock, Ark., came to Waterbury to speak for the Republican candidate for the U. N. Senate, Senator Frederick C. Walcott of Norfolk, who, he declared had been a benefactor to the Logan family twenty years ago, educating both the speaker, now a lawyer in Little Rock, and his brother. Another meeting was held in Garden Hall on Monday night, October 29, at which Michael Karperman, district chairman, presided. The meeting was sponsored by the Colored Republican Club, Joseph D. Copeland, president, and it was pre- Canadian Officials Garvey's Deporta On November 15 Following Deportation Garvey Went To Long And Came To Canada Press advices from M effect that Marcus Garvey eral of the Universal Ne ton, who was deported fro ing the serving of a sente Prison, will also be depo November 15. Garvey was sent to Jamestown, West Indies, on board a ship that sialed from New Orleans, and later he went to London, where he held several meetings in interest of his organization, but which meetings were poorly attended. A few weeks ago he left England and came to Canada, and had projected demonstrations in several Canadian cities. Canada Stops Garvey But the Canada authorities took prompt action, putting him under arrest as soon as he announced his plans, which included a projected assembling of the U N I A annual convention, which was formerly held in New York City. Following his arrest and the announcement that Garvey would be deported on November 15, the officials allowed him temporary freedom und er sate out on condition that he would address no public meetings or give out any interviews. THE MISSING MAN sided over by Joseph Hatcher, national organizer of colored voters. Attorney Logan made another strong plea for Senator Walcott, and the Rev. Dr. Bailey told of his experiences for fourteen years in the South, reminding his hearers of the attitude of the southern white man for the Negro.

Conferred With Supporters He held private conferences with a number of his supporters, however, and it is believed that he hopes they will carry on the interrupted plans which he had project ed. The deportation of Garvey from Canada is said to have resulted from Garvey's denunciation of treatment of colored men under British and American flags, and the possible effect of his utterances on the American elections. It was not felt that he should be permitted to use Canada as a place from which to cast aspersions upon a friendly neighbors.

Madden. The outstanding development of the election was the refusal of the Negro voters to be misled by the specious arguments advanced by the Democrats. Never before has so concentrated an effort been made to break the race's alliance with the Republican Party, but its ineffectiveness was clearly shown by the results, particularly in the 19th and 21st Assembly Districts of New York City. A recapitulation of the vote shows that Hoover carried the 19th with a vote of 7,829 as against 6,037 for Smith, and the 21st by 10,995 to 8,583. Colored Workers Complimented The splendid work done by the colored campaign workers in the Eastern Organization, headed by Alderman Fred R. Moore, organizer, with Mrs. Addie W. Hunton of Brooklyn as associate, was complimented in the highest terms by National Vice Chairman Pomeroy, who was enthusiastic in his congratulations. The field workers operating under Mr. Moore and Mrs. Hunton were Mrs. Eva Parks for New York City; Mrs. Elizabeth Bray for Westchester; Mrs. Bessie Payne for Hudson River Valley; Mrs. Elizabeth Talbert for Erie County and vicinity; Mrs. Mayme Taylor for Brooklyn; Mrs. Media Dodson, Mrs. Lucy Freeman, Mrs. Blanche Bond and J. DeWitt Spencer, New York City. The office staff consisted of Miss Ethel Murray, stenographer to Mr. Moore: Miss Desdelral Newton and Mrs. Antoinette A. Hamilton, stenographers to Mrs. Hunton, and Mrs. Olga Hamilton, acting stenographer. The headquarters of this organization were located in the Salmon Tower building, 11 West 42nd street. Another signal victory was that of Alderman George U. Harvey, Republican, from the Borough of Queens, who was elected President of that Borough with 168,461 votes, as against 164,784 for his Democratic opponent, Bernard Patten. Alderman Harvey was responsible for the sweeping sewer investigation which sent the former Borough President Connolly to prison for his connection with a $29,000,000 theft of Borough funds. ST.

The article points out the opportunity for service to the small business man of Harlem and commends John D. Rockefellar Jr., and the directors for their foresight in establishing the bank. Characterizing the work of this institution where a white and colored staff are working side by side was a unique experiment, Mr. Bruce writes in part as follows: or economic status. Its services are entirely at the command of the humblest citizen." A few details regarding the routine operation of the Dunbar National I have on a previous occasion formulated and may here submit. To Start Checking Account A Unique Experiment Here is a unique experiment in inter-racial cooperation. No such opportunity, I say, exists anywhere in the United States, indeed in the whole world, for our men and women to be trained in the exacting technique of banking. No wonder that a man who has been, for more than a dozen years, president of a substantial Negro bank in one of our Southern States, with a capital of more than $300,000, offered to resign his post and its emoluments in order to come into the Duncan National and learn bank-in from the ground up. Safe Stock Investment Sid C. O. Heydt, president of the Paul Laurence Dunbar Apartments Inc. and director of the Dunbar National, who has been very closely associated with Mr. Rockefeller for many years, in a communication to an anxious Harlem correspondent: "You will see from the list of directors) that we sought to get the ablest and most responsible group we could gather together to guide the operation of the Dunbar National Bank. Not one of them is a promoter or a person inclined to exploit the banking business and certainly not the colored people. Our purpose is to establish this bank so carefully that it will be on a solid foundation so that any stock in it which is bought by colored people, will be a perfectly safe and sound investment. And further: "As the years go on, we, of course, are intending to add persons of color to the board. And we are also expecting to allot some stock of the bank to the tenant-owners of the Paul Laurence Dunbar Apartments, and possibly to some of the more significant colored people of Harlem. However, until we are definitely assured of the cooperation of the colored people in this enterprise and of the success of the same, you will understand our hesitancy about offering the stock to them. We want the colored people to feel that this bank was established as the request of a group of their respektatives and that we are doing our very best so to conduct the enterprise as to assure them that it is for their protection and their advantage. How To Acquire Bonds Temperamental Harlem has been notorious as a "Numbers" addict of inordinate appetite; she is now being intelligently and systematically urged to relieve, and satisfier speculative impulses by sound investments in good bonds; constructive service, indeed! One may acquire a good bond-by paying the bank fifty per cent of its market value, leaving the same as collateral in its custody to clip coupons as they mature, and be on the alert for calls or other actions affecting the bond's validity, provided that the purchaser makes satisfactory critical payments on accounts. Every Negro bank in the United States which keeps a reserve in New York City and many must should and, I think, will carry that ticket with the Dunbar National, on fairly inactive checking, ac- counts with an average monthly balance of at least $1,000, the Dun- bury pays interest at two percent. For Business Betterment And President Higgins, possibly able to show to the circumstances that he is a commercial bank the Dambar requires the patronage of others as well as colored business men. This institution is resigned to contribute steadily and wisely, with other agencies, to the treatment of business conditions in Harlem. It is a community bank and as such it will endeavor right cornerly to deserve permanently the active interest and support not only of business men and women but of all good citizens. This is a bank without prejudices, whether of race or sex or religion or economic status. Its services are entirely at the command of the humbleest citizen." A few details regarding the routine operation of the Dunbar National I have on a previous occasion formulated and may here submit. To Start Checking Account The deposit of one hundred dollar or more opens a regular checking account. But, unless a daily balance of one hundred dollars or more is maintained, the depositor makes himself liable to a service charge of one dollar a month. Where the monthly balance in a checking account averages $1000 or more, interest will be paid at the rate of two per cent per annum unless the customer is a borrower, and in that case special arrangements will be made dependent up on the nature of the transaction in hand. A deposit of one dollar or more opens a shift account'. Interest at three percent is paid when such an account amounts to five dollars or more. This is compounded not semi-annually but quarterly. The Dunbar National is not in competition with the savings banks. Thrift Accounts And Bonds Every depositor is earnestly advised to confer personally with some officer of this bank wheighth, balance in the Thrift Account amounts to, say five hundred dollars or one thousand. Upon the expert advice of the bank officer, the depositor may proceed to secure a substantially larger return upon his money, by purchasing some gilt-edged security, a safe and same bond. While such bonds may be placed in the depositor's box in the safe deposit vault, he is advised to leave them preferably in the custody of the bank in order that soupons may be clipped at the proper times, dividends collected promptly and placed to his credit. By buying in this way bond after bond, the depositor makes his surplus earings work incessantly and gradually accumulates a competence; this is a sure way to economic independence. Indeed, if, as indicated above, a depositor has fifty per cent of the purchase price of a good bond, the bank will lend him the remainder. Safe Deposit Boxes A safe deposit box in a big vault of the banking house may be rented by the year from four dollars the box upward. This is the place to keep jewelry, insurance policies, deeds, wills, bonds not in the custody of the Bank and the like. Since the change in the National Bank Act, The Dunbar National Bank is permitted to make first mortgagt loans up to fifty per cent of the sound appraisal value of real property, for periods not to exceed five years, provided that the property so mortgaged is not over one hundred miles from the banking house. Drafts upon banks in South America, the West Indies, or any part of the world may be purchased at The Dunbar National at the same low rates that the big down town banks charge their customers. Evening Service On Mondays the bank opens until 9 p.m. Moreover, a completely safeguarded night depository is now in operation; special arrangements with some officer of the bank for the use of the same in necessary. In addition to having all the general powers possessed by banks in the State of New York, this bank functions as trustees, executor, administrator, registrar of stocks and bonds, guardians of estates assignes receiver, and committee of estates of lunatics. The accounts of persons of good reputation in their own communities, even though outside the City and State of New York, are not unwelcome Post office money orders. American Express checks, cashier's and other checks may be mailed in for placement to the credit or thrift or a checking accounts, to purchase sound bonds, etc. Officers And Directors The members of the Board of Directors are: J.

C. — Friday morning November 2 at 10 o'clock, A. and T. College observed "Dudley Day," at which time Mayor E. B Jeffress of Greenboro delivered the principal address, Mayor Jeffress was a personal friends of the late President J. B. Dudley. In naming the great men who had been responsible for educational development in North Carolina, Mayor Jeffress linked with the names of Aycock, McKeever and Joyner the game of James B Dudley. He said: "President Dudley was almost a pioneer insecrets in practical education because if you will look over the things that are being done in the schools today, you will find that more attention is being paid to the practical things and the useful things that is being paid to the question of whether you can read Latin or Greek or not There is little room in this country now for what we need to know and love, "The Country Gentleman" for America has become a working nation. We have reached the point where our education and training must be practical because we all have to make our living by our brains, by our hands or by a combination of hoth, and so he was a great pioneer" A. B. Johnson, a graduate of the institution, now principal of the 'D' D, and B. School at Raleigh, gave a short address, and fitted music was rendered by the students. President F. D. Bluford, presiding, talked briefly of the great work of the late President Dudley, stressing particularly his vision. CHARLES E.

J.-Fifteen representatives of skilled Negro labor met today at the Bordentown Manual Training School upon request of Principal W. R. Valentine to discuss problems which the school meets in the vocational training of its students as well as the situation which the skilled Negro workman of New Jersey faces in general Those present at the meeting represented seven trades and included James Brown, printer, New York; Norman Bryant, carpenter and builder, Camden; Benjamin Buggs, carpenter and builder, Princeton; Geo Clarke, farmer, Moorestown; Geo DeLache, bricklayer, Newark; William Jackson, contractok and builder, Montclair; Charles Jones, auto mechanic, Bernardsville; William Kerney, hauling contractor, Manasquan; Williams Knuckles, electrical contractor, Asbury Park; Thomas Puryear, executive secretary of the Urban League; Alto Ray, bricklayer, Orange; Isaac Richardson, garage, owner, Asbury Park; and Justus Rodgers, contracting plumber, Philadelphia. Many Negroes In Unions In addition, Wesley O'Leary, assistant New Jersey commissioner of education, and various members of the school staff were present. The meeting concerned itself chiefly with the training required of a Negro seeking employment in the various trades, and the opportunity which he has of securing employment in New Jersey. It was found that employment openings are plentiful in the building trades; especially in bricklaying and carpentry. Auto mechanics and painting and paperlalling were also found to be trades where colored craftsmen find ready employment Alto Ray, bricklaying foreman of the Newark district, staled that over five hundred Negroes were regular members of the Bricklayers. Plasterers and Masons Union of Newark and the Oranges, and that little opposition to their hiring existed. Negroes usually working side, by side with white men at this trade. Carpenters also find work within or without the union. The Half Trained Workman Over and over again the men present deferred the prevalence of the half-trained Negro workman who pose as real craftsmen and who give a black eye to the skilled Negro workman by unsatisfactory work.

He called attention to the fact that the fifteen men present represented a total yearly income of over seventy-five thousand dollars, or an average which compared favorably with that of the professional man. He declared that the Negro public on the outside should be educated to a realization of the financial opportunities which he in the skilled trades, and that it should be the Negro craftsman himself who does this educating by impinging his success upon the attention of the public.

Ground has just been broken for the new Grace Presbyterian Church and Community House, for the construction of which the people of Louisville recently subscribed $100,000. The ceremonies of ground breaking were attended by more than eight hundred people and were participated in by many prominent ministers and social workers; white and colored. The new plant will house the community work that has been carried on so successfully for many years under the direction of Dr. John Little. It will contain auditorium, recreation hall, class rooms, gymnasium and public baths $65,000 For Church Another important interracial achievement is the successful completion of a campaign for $65,000 in behalf of the Plymouth Congregation Church, Rev. E. H. Harris, pastor. As in the case of the Presbyterian Community House, the necessary funds were raised by a committee of white citizens representing practically every denomination in the city. Plans are under way to break ground for the new building on Thanksgiving. These two missions will minister to two important centers of Negro life in the city, East and West New County Home A handsome new county home for the care of dependent colored boys and girls will be opened in January. In a letter to the Interracial Committee, which has been working for this institution, H 'V.

This is a son when the thermometer and the windows go down at the same time. With the arrival of the first chill breeze sashes are lowered and doors closed against the out door air as against a bitter enemy. This is a system, that has its drawbacks, however. It is well enough to protect ourselves against cold, but in shunning fresh air too much, we are apt to run the risk of lowering our resistance against disease. No air is so healthful as outdoor air, and we need a quantity of it every day in order to keep well. Now that the winter is upon us, let us not neglect to keep our bedroom windows open, while we sleep. In an era of electric pads, hot water bottles and warm, light covering, there is no reason why we cannot have a comfortable night's rest in a cold room. Only in very severe climates is it perhaps advisible not to keep the windows wide open at night. Moreover, we can work more efficiently and more contentedly in home, shop or office, if the windows are opened for a few minutes several times a day. And let us remember that a brisk daily walk tones up the system that we do not feel the cold so much. To educate the public in the value of fresh air and in disease prevention the National Tuberculosis Association and its affiliated organizations are conducting the twenty-first Christmas seal sale. Magistrate Maurice Gotlieb Charged By Woman With Discrimination and Prejudice In Jefferson Market Court Refused Consideration of Case Against Dress Manufacturer Charged With Assaulting Mrs. Bushell Who Resented Advances to Child A charge of- discrimination and discourteous treatment by Magistrate Maurice H. Gotlieb is being made to Chief Magistrate William McAdoo as a result of the dismissal of the felonious assault charge against Harry Pheffer, proprietor of the Marcel Dress Factory at 315 West 39th street; in the Jefferson Market Court on October 16. The charge against Pheffer and also against Magistrate Gotlieb is being made by Mrs. Mary Bushell of 217 West 119th street Had Dislocated Shoulder Mrs. Husbell appeared in court on October 16 with evidence of a dislocated shoulder and bruises about the body which she alleges. Pheffer is responsible for. But when she asked Magistrate Gottlieb to postpone the hearing of her case for all an hour to give one of her witnesses, who was late, time to get in court, the Magistrate told the woman he did not believe her case had any merit—that she had gone to Pheffer's place of business to assault him—and abruptly dismissed the complaint, although on several previous occasions he had granted postpensions at the request of Pheffer's attorney. The trouble grew out of the discharged of Mrs. Fusbell's daughter Lillian from the dress factory last September. Lillian told her mother that Pheffer attempted to "get fresh" with her and when she repulsed his advances he paid her off, but did not give her the full amount car. Assaulted By Pheffer Mrs. Buhell went to see Pheffer the next day to get the balance due her daughter. When she accused Pheffer of trying to take advantage of her daughter, she alleges she flew into a rage, struck her with his fist, knocking her down and then kicked her in the stomach. She also charges that Pheffer then ran into another room, secured a broom and struck it across the shoulder as she attempted to rise. An ambulance had to be called and she was treated by Dr. William Tanther, the ambulance surgeon, and later by Dr. C. A. Tonnelle Mitchell for a dislocated shoulder and Mrs. E. R. Alexander Back From Trip Home Mrs. E. R. Alexander Back From Trip Home Mrs. Ernest R. Alexander, wife of Dr. E R Alexander, 234 W. 139th street has just returned from a family visit West and South, including a visit to the parents of her husband in Nashville, Tenn., and to her own family in Springfield and Cleveland, Ohio. Dr. Alexander accompanied her as far as Springfield, Ohio, where he spent the weekend with her sister and brother. She tells of interesting and busy days on the Fisk University campus in Nashville where from student body and faculty she had the report that the present growth, goodwill and Fisk spirit seem to insure a great future for Fisk. "For fifteen years I have been using Black-Draught, when needed, for billiousness and constipation," says Mr. J.A.O. Woolard'i of Oriental, N.

It certainly comes up to all the good things that are said for it, and I am glad to recommend it. purges the system of the poisons which accumulate when the organs do not act properly, and I would not be without it. "I always give Black-Draught to the children for colds (when a laxative is needed). It is fine for that. "My trouble is chiefly constipation which is always accompanied by dull headache, backache, and pains in my side. I think Black-Draught is the quickest and best relief for this." Bruises about the body. Pheffer was arrested on the charge of felonious assault but was released immediately on bail. Mrs. Bushell has secured the services of Attorney Pope B. Billups, who is instituting a civil action against the dress manufacturer. N. Y. Business Academy Gives Halloween Dance One of the most colorful and joyous Halloween party dances was that of the students and friends of the New York Academy of Business held Wednesday evening, October 31, at the Imperial Elk's auditorium. The wonderful dance music was furnished by Chase's Harmonic Orchestra The auditorium was beautifully and tastefully decorated in Halloween colors during the day by thirty of the day school students A large tub filled with water sat at the head of the hall and at 12 o'clock midnight, there was such a ducking and diving for the red apples. This was indeed great fun, for when the boys dipped for the apples their heads were pushed down into the water by those around the apple tub. The apple tub group was composed of Josephine Phillips, Ruby Sewer, Evelyn Brown, Evelyn Richards, Ida Wainwright. The reception committee composed of Gladys Sheppard, Evelyn Harris, Olive Ragland, Catherine DeFrietras, Gladys Erskine, Madge Browne, Azala Jowes, and Mildred Williams, distributed assorted Halloween candy, confetti and streamers.

BUSINESS GIRLS OF YWCA PLAN CAMPAIGN RALLY Regular activities go on in the Branch as usual, but everything has a range of campaign. On Thursday, November 1 the Business and Industrial Club girls spent an hour and a half in exhausting exercise in the gym, and later came down to the club room for a sing and a discussion of the best campaign methods for reaching their quota. In the meantime the same serious matter was being discussed in the membership meeting or charge of Miss Anna Arnold in the auditorium. At the close of these meetings the two groups joined and, young and older, played games together and partook in order and doughnuts in celebration of the Halloween season. The girls of the Emma Ransom House had a running campaign rally on Friday night, November 2, in the lobby of the House. More than fifty girls attended the meeting there were inspiring campaign songs and much enthusiasm. The crowning event of the evening was the presentation of Mrs Emma Ransom herself and a fine speech from Mrs Ransom. Other talks were given by Mrs Susie Elliot, director of the House, Miss Nora B. Lille, of the residence staff, and Miss Viola Lowt campaign director. At the close of the meeting parish was served. At the regular Sunday afternoon meeting on the Branch the colored candidates for election were given the opportunity of stating their various platforms. The speakers were E. A.

C-On Thursday morning the teachers and students of Shaw University were happy to have as their guest at the chapel service Miss G. A Gollock, an English lady of wide missionary interests and associate editor of the International Review of Missions; who was making her first tour of the South. Miss Gollock devoted her address very largely to the work of Max Yergan, distinguished Shaw alumnus, and to that of Dr. J. E. K. Aggrey, who she said was much better known abroad than in America. Just two days previously Shaw also had as visitors F Maxmilien and C Beaulieu, students from Haiti, who are attending Teachers' College, Columbia University, and R. F. Lohr, 'another student from West Africa, these gentlemen being the guests of N C Newbold, state director of Negro Education. These students, who have been doing outstanding educational work in their respective countries, were sent here by Columbia University to see some of the vocational work, agricultural and otherwise, that is being done under the direction of the State Department Plans are going forward for the celebration of Founder's Day on December 7, at which time there will be a great homecoming of Shaw Alumni. Dr M C. King, corresponding secretary of the Alumni Association, is making efforts with W C Craver, field secretary, to make the gathering a notable one. In the evening the returning alumni will attend the first program for the year of the class in The Forms of Public Address Now In African Library Tuskegee Institute, Ala. — The Bulletin, official organ of the National Association of Teachers in Colored Schools, has been placed on the shelves of the teachers library of Accra, Gold Coast, British West Africa, according to information received here by C. J. Calloway, editor of The Bulletin, and executive secretary of the Association. The subscription was forwarded recently in a letter from the colony's education department. Many educators have rated The Bulletin as among the foremost educational journals of the country. It is published monthly and carries articles, both technical and popular, on problems of education. It is the only educational periodical of national circulation published by Negroes, and serves as a medium of expression for, the nearly 50,000 teachers in colored schools in America. Augusta, Ga.—Beginning its 46th annual session, Paine College, educational institution of the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church, recently opened with an enrollment of one hundred in the college department and 237 in the high school. The faculty of eighteen is said to be the best institution has ever had, with all the college department teachers, except two, holding a master's degree or its equivalent. Last year the institution graduated twelve. from the college department, one in home economics, and fifteen from the high school. Beginning its work in rented quarters on the second and third floors of dwelling house nearly a half-century ago, and later occupying a farm house and renovated outbuildings the institution now has a commodious and modern plant valued at $450,000, an endowment of $30,000 and an annual budget of $50,000. Paine College is a fine illustration of cooperation between white and colored people. The board of trustees is composed of representatives of the Methodist Church, South, and the Colored Methodist Church. A bi-racial faculty works together without friction or disagreement. The president is Rev Ray S. Tomlin, a minister of the M. E. Church South. Both denominations contribute to the support of the school which constitutes a valuable noxus of common interest and usefulness between the two. Some of the finest buildings on the campus were controlled by the white church Rural Life, Rural Homes Study By J. M. Ellison Petersburgh, Va.-The Virginia State College is cooperating with the Virginia Polytechnic Institute under the provision of the Purnell Act. The Purnell Act, passed in the 68th Congress, provides for scientific researches that have for their purpose the establishment and maintenance of permanent and efficient agricultural industry, and such economic and sociological investigations as have for their purpose the development and improvement of the rural home and rural life. Rev. J. M. Ellison of the Virginia State College, on recommendation by President Gandv, has been appointed as assistant collaborator in rural research. His chief duties are to study and analyze the organizational situation as it affects the rural life of this state. In keeping with the main objective, it was recognized that, the churches and the affiliated societies were among the most important organizations in our rural life. In his effort to make the investigation as thorough as possible, Rev. Ellison has also made the migration and urban trend a phase, of his study. For the comfort of the public. Bath on every floor.

Arthur Garfield Hayes was secured to handle the case for Mrs. Brookins, and the association paid for taking testimony in Florida. After taking the case to court, Mr. Hayes reported that the railroad offered an amount in settlement of damages which waa acceptable to Mrs. Brookins and the case was settled by the payment of $2,750. The action of the railroad in settling this case without going to trial is held as an admission of the rights of interstate travelers to Pullman accommodation, despite any state laws to the contrary. It emphasizes the fact that these passengers are not subject to Jim Crow regulations, but must be given equal accommodation to that given other passengers who pay the same rate of fare. While it is gratifying to learn that Mrs. Brookins received some compensation for the brutal treatment she was forced to undergo at the whim of an ignorant employee of the Atlantic Coast Line, for which the railroad was willing to pay a round sum, it would have been more satisfactory if the settlement had been brought about by a decision of the court. We understand the reason why the case could not be pushed to such a legal conclusion in view of the willingness of the defendant to settle by paying damages in a sum satisfactory to the plaintiff. RACIAL PREJUDICE ABROAD A study of Race Prejudice in France, by Richard T. Lapiere, appeared in Social Forces for September, a quarterly published by the University of North Carolina. Mr. Lapiere's study was limited more to color prejudice, as his inquiries made to hundreds of individuals and a number of hotel proprietors in both countries were to the race prejudice against Negroes. He tabulated the responses received and reported that out of three hundred and sixty people questioned in various parts of France, exclusive of the seaport towns, Bordeaux and Marseilles, only nine admitted race prejudice, seventy-two doubtful and two hundred and seventy nine had no race prejudice against Negroes. Of thirty-one hotel proprietors questioned in France twenty-four said they would admit well-behaved colored people. The real offenders in this matter, the railroad conductor, the two officials and the local magistrate at Palatka, appear to have got off scott free. They are the criminals who should have been made to pay for their prejudice and presumption in daring to override the laws of the United States by the Jim Crow regulations of Florida. The supremacy of the Federal statutes over all local legislation should be established in all parts of this land "The fact that, with the exception of tourist hotels whose policy is adjusted to foreign, not French attitudes, French hotel proprietors do not object to colored guests," writes Mr. Lapiere, "certainly indicates that the French people as a whole are not adverse to associating, at least impersonally, with dark-skinned peoples." In England Mr. Lapiere found a relatively much higher degree of race prejudice, two hundred and fifty-four out of three hundred and fifteen people questioned admitting prejudice, forty-seven being doubtful and only fourteen without it. Out of twenty English hotel proprietors questioned, only four would admit Negroes. MIXING CARDS AND POLITICS It remained for the women of Hairlem to introduce a novel feature in the past political campaign by making a card tournament the introduction to a political address by one of their own sex. This affair was given at a popular Harlem resort, the proprietor of which tendered that use of his kabaret, and was conducted under the auspices of the Women's Committee for Hoover. The invited guests played whist and bridge from four to six in the afternoon, after which an address was delivered on the life of Herbert Hoover, which was reported as enthusiastically received. Three prizes were awarded to the players of bridge and three to those who indulged in the older game of whist: "One fact stands out from this present study," whites Mr. Lapiere, "which has a general application to the problem of racial prejudice. Since the French people have no general antagonism to, or distaste for skin color, that fact definitely precludes any concept of race prejudice as arising from or an inherent psychological valuation of white skin by the whites, and a 'natural' revulsion for dark or black skinned peoples. This fact forces one to the study of social, not biological origins where color prejudice is found. Moreover, no biological explanation can account for the difference found between France and England in their attitude toward colored peoples." This combination of political instruction and entertainment by playing card games seemed to please the women who attended this novel campaign meeting. Unlike a political Juncheon of the Chicago women, given under the auspices of the Smith-for-President Colored League, there was no incident to mar the harmony of the occasion. The bridge and whist players shuffled their cards and dealt their hands, without any political shuffles or deals to disturb the serenity of their proceedings. The casual trumping of a partner's ace or the failure to observe an informatory, but were all forgotten when the time for the address arrived. John Langdon Davies, in a review of a learned work on "Race and Civilization", by Friedrich Herz, showed the ancient standing and long established employment of race theories as the weapon of one economic class against another at all stages of the world's progress. He urged that Prof. Herz's work should be compulsory reading for every student of sociology. As deduced from this book, you could pay your money and take your choice of any theory of race superiority, or inferiority for that matter. One could explain "scientifically" every one of his dislikes and even his own failure, by choosing the correct race theorist. He found it depressing, however, to think that human beings must always be doing this sort of thing. Not so at the Chicago luncheon, where a mere man, though a judge and the Democratic candidate for state's attorney, was a guest and made a speech in the interest of his candidacy. This masculine pretender put his foot in the whole affair by an elephantine attempt at wit, by assuring the women present that he did not believe in "interference with a game of craps, commonly called Afrikan golf." It only remained for the Chicago Bee to report the judge's appraisal of the intelligence of his auditors and to use his remarks as a precedent for addressing such gathering in the future. It is true that race prejudice is a most depressing thing, because it cannot be justified by any process of sound reasoning. It is a creation of ignorance and intolerance, which renders it doubly hard to fight or dissipate by any reasonable process. The gist of the matter would appear to show that while cards may be mixed with politics, if done with discretion and in strictly feminine fashion, it is not well to try to introduce dice into a political discussion, whether the allusion be intended in a jocular vein or strictly on the level. We shall be interested to hear how the Chicago judge fared after his effort to exempt craps from the gambling code. An important victory for interstate passengers is claimed in the case of Mrs. Clara Brookins, who recently recovered damages in her suit against the Atlantic Coast Line, for her expulsion from a Pullman car at Palatka, Florida, in July of last year. Mrs. Brookins had purchased a Pullman ticket from New York to Orlando, Fla., but at Jacksonville the conductor told her to go into the Jim Crow car. She refused and the conductor telegraphed ahead to Palatka, where two officers took her from the train and put her in jail. She was kept there all night and the next day was fined five hundred dollars and costs. HOW A COMPANY UNION WORKS The company union election, of the Pullman porters, which has been in progress the past week, closed on November 3, with much recrimination on the part of the Brotherhood supporters, as to the hardboiled tactics employed to force the employees to vote. President, Randolph of the union brotherhood had advised the porters to abstain from voting. He pointed out that the Pullman company would be able to get legal recognition for the company union, if a majority of the employees took part in the election. The Brotherhood claimed that a majority of Through the National Association for the twelve thousand porters and maids were enrolled in its ranks, flaking the company union a minority organization. To refute this claim of the Brotherhood to represent a majority of the employees, it was alleged that undue pressure was put upon the porters to vote in the company union election. At the Long Island City yards, it was charged that the doubtful porters ran the gauntlet of the company's agents, both white and black, who insisted that they should cast a vote. All kinds of discrimination even to the point of discharge, were used, according to the story told by the Brotherhood supporters, in order to make them vote in the company election. Some of the officials refused to either affirm or deny these statements, but others frankly admitted that the employees were expected to participate in the company elections. One added that "there are hundreds of darkies anxious to get these jobs," and pertinently asked: "Why shouldn't our employees cooperate?" The situation of the porters is somewhat like that of the subway employees in New York who are obliged to join the company union, under penalty of dismissal if they join an outside organization. The object of having the employees belong to a union controlled by the company is of course to prevent any demands being made that are not favored by the company. A union free from-company control would be liable to present the views of the workers rather than the employees and might prove an effective weapon in cooperative bargaining. But where the employer controls the agency that is supposed to represent the workers, it is not likely that any demands will be made that are not favored by the real power behind the organization. The weak point of the Brotherhood argument is that even if it has a majority of the workers enrolled, it is not in a position to call a strike, because of the fear that it couldn't carry enough of the porters with it to prevent the company doing business, or filling their places with the jobless black men kept hanging around the yards. Then there has been too much vituperation and hard names called on both sides. Referring to the company union as "a fake election" and calling the porters "darkies," "niggers," and "shines" does not tend to make the relations of employer and employed any more harmonious. The point of the matter is that a company union can rarely, if ever, honestly and openly voice the demands of any class of employees for needed reforms to be made on the part of the employer. That there are such reforms imperatively needed in the dealings of the Pullman Company with the porters is conceded by all disinterested parties. If a majority of the employees shall have participated in the election of the Company union just held, that body will probably be recognized as the representative of the employees in any negotiations for a change of conditions. The Brotherhood is facing a critical condition in its affairs, which demands considerable discretion on the part of its management. In the meantime there should be no let-up in exposing the hardships and injustices under which the porters now labor, and which could be corrected by a measure of considereation on the part of the company. RED CROSS ROLL CALL The Red Cross will hold its twelfth annual roll call beginning Armistice Day, November 11, and continuing until Thanksgiving Day, November 29. Five million members for the year 1929 is the national goal for this great relief organization. It is the financial support of its membership, gathered through this yearly roll call, that enables the Red Cross to keep its organization intact, ready at all times to respond to a call for aid in the time of disaster. And hardly a day passes that does not bring a call for relief of one sort or another. In less than twenty-four hours after a cable report of the Porto Rico hurricane, with its great loss of life and property, a Red Cross director and a corps of assistants were on their way to the island and National headquarters had appropriated fifty thousand dollars for the purchase of food to be shipped by a special boat. Equally prompt action was taken in the case of furnishing relief for the Florida storm sufferers and the thousands made homeless by the Mississippi floods. Besides this service of relief through trained assistants, there are a number of volunteer workers in this and other cities, who engage in sewing and knitting and forwarding clothing to points where it is needed. The settlement work done through this organization in the tenement section on the lower east side is another useful feature, by which classes of mothers are taught the first principles of home hygiene and care of the sick. Red Cross nurses make daily rounds of the hospitals and visit the sick who are alone and friendless in this great city. There is so much of general good done by this organization that every individual should join in the roll call and enroll as a member by WEEKLY NOTES FROM INDIA By The Age Special Correspondent Inkuman Hours Of Work Bombay Port Trust workmen, in a representation made to the chairman of the Trust, complained that the members in Land and Bunders Department have to put in every day eleven hours of duty beginning with 7:30 a. m. and ending at 6:30 p. m. "without any intermission." he unfulfilled for a factory worker to manage thirty hours a week or more than eleven hours a day, and to be refused rest for an hour after every six hours. It is possible that the workmen in question are not technically included under the class of factory workmen. Whatever may be the legal position, the Port Trust must be in respect of the practice as "unnatural and inhuman." Besides, it is a bad precedent for the Port Trust to lay down, which will depress and demoralize all labor unprotected by law. India is far behind western countries in respect of ameliorating the conditions of labor. If eight hours of work a day are required, the workers of work in a tropical country like India are an anomaly. It is intolerable for a body like the Port Trust to exploit labor. Barbarous Methods The, policy of retrenchment insisted upon by the authorities of the Bengal Nagpur Railway has naturally exasperated the workers at Kharagpur and the latest telegram show that the general strike is imminent and that the position is further aggravated by the economy but not the laborers. To spare the heavily paid officers at the top but to apply the pruning knife severely to the thickes of poor shrievelled up poppies below. What秒 retrenchment the B N, Railway can make when it sends into misery and starvation the women laborers proposed to be retrenchment of whom are widows and 97 per cent of whom are getting the wretched dole of seven annas per days (about seven pence or seven cents) as wages? Is it revenge? Is it the wish to break the back of the labor Union on the railway which makes it impossible to sit in this cruel and callous policy? Their whole attitude cannot but make the workers believe that no other motives but these are behind the retrenchment scheme Government of India does not desire to interfere in this grave problem; but should not the Government of India delay on its part mean famine and ultimately death to thousands of poor men and women The Cast Of Detenus (Indian Political Prisoners) Mr. Subas Chandra Bose, (who was one of the sufferers and just released) in a lengthy statement to the press presses the Bengal Government for their policy of interning detenus in insignificant, snake-infested and remote logistical where proper necessities of life are not available. To call internment under such conditions release appears to him, as it may to every unbased person, to be a mockery. Is it not deliberea on the part of the Government to choose such localities for the Village Domicile of the detenus. But if you inform authorities in handed in the ways mentioned by Mr. Bose, it is time that the new Governor of Bengal, Sir Stanley Jackson, should take the matter in his own hands and help, to make the existence of the detenus at least tolerable When the new Governor was installed it was announced by him that he would be detenus. But evidently it appears that the part of the Government to choose the subordinate executives stood in the way. The Police are making efforts to justify their action by inducing some of the detenus to give an undertaking which practically means a confession of guilt, and hence the detenus have not been very anxious to fall in with the promptings of their custodians: The treatment that is, meted out to the detenus in jails is again a question of considerable importance. They are treated not as under trial men, which virtually they are, but as criminals who have been convicted and sentenced to the institution (111 men) and the Bengal ordinance men are by no means persons who can be classed as felons. All of them are presumably respectable members of society, citizens whose honor and honesty have not been impaired before a judicial tribunal. They have been put up underress on the strength of the police reports which have not been submitted to the court, before an open forum. Even their detention in jails can be justified only, if at all, by the alleged necessity for preventing revolutionary activities in the interest of law and order. But there can be no justification for according to them the treatment that is usually reserved for offenders whose guilt has been proved against them. Some of them might be tried. If their freedom is to be restricted to the extent of putting an end to their public activity there seem to be no reason why their The work of the Red Cross is one relief agency that is endorsed by Protestants, Catholics and Jews, and its mission of relief is not limited by race, creed or color. It is the cause of broad humanity, to which all classes should respond without reservation. sonal liberty in their places of detention should also be interfered with. They do not seem to be allowed to read books on their choice and the C. I. D. men must certify what books can safely be allowed to reach them. Reasonable allowances are not given to them for their bare necessities, and seem to be nothing of a scandal. The writer wonders how long this atrocity and terrorism will be allowed to control the Government of India. Men are enough in prison and therefore they deserve freedom even if they are guilty of any crime. The fear that when under-trial men are acquitted, an official apology is given to them for their detention before and even during the trial. The institution is extremely comic, no doubt, but it appears to relieve the rigor of application of executive law by the detention department, as the虚冤 are concerned in India, even if Government will not acknowledge that they have been wrong in detaining them, the best that they can do is to release them all or bring them to book in an open court of law and stop this terrorist act. The reason for arguments even if Indians become revolutionaries for the overthrow of the Government. Sakaltvaa And India . In connection with the recent tarm put in the way of Sh. Sakalatala, M. P. by the cancellation of his passport to India, the Legislative Assembly was subjected to volles of questions, but the member in charge evaded the issue. For the Bombay Legislative Council, Mr. Nariman has tabled a series of questions, which all go to prove that there is no shred of evidence against him. He was preached during his sojourn in India either violence or hatred for the British Government; Evidently, it appears that the Government does not desire to see Indian labor being organized, of which Mr. Sakalatala was the chief exponent. March Of The Workers Women workers at Kharagapur formed themselves into procession, and marched through important streets carrying with them black flags with the following motto printed thereon: "Bengal Nagpur Railway Indian Labor protests against cruel retrenchment. Divided the women and wead State starving at thousands. Down with capitalism. Union your religion. Bengal Nagpur Railway bent upon killing the Union. Save starving families." Some of the women were seen weeping, saying they have had no food for two days, as they had received no wages for August and consequently the shopkeepers had given them materials on credit. It is ascertained on inquiry that of the females thrown out of work more than half the number are windows and of advanced age and 97 per cent of them get seven annas per day (seven cents or seven pence) for twenty-four days a month. The Trade Union is doing all that is needed. The Bombay Railwaymen's Union condemned the attitude of the B, N. Railway in locking out about 10,000 workshop employees, especially those working in the construction this unfortunate country has risen over millions, and people are starving and miserable. The awakening of the Indian workers has enabled effort to work for their own amelioration is visible from the foregoing. This Week's Tidbits Cold Weather Special RED BEAN AND RICE (A Famous Creole Combination) 1 pound of red beans Soak the beans over night, or for at least six hours. Then simmer for four hours or more in 2 full quarts of water. The beans will then be quite soft. Add the salt butter, onion, red pepper, and continue the simmering process for two hours longer. Serve with boiled rice, and the combination is not only good but particularly well balanced. A pound of salt meat, scaled, is often substituted for the above seasoning, excluding the onion. The minced onion entirely disappears in the simmering and makes a delicious seasoning ORANGE PINWHEEL 1 cup flour 2 teaspoons baking-powder ½ teaspoon salt 3 tablespoons butter 2 milk 2 tablespoons sugar 2 tablespoons orange juice The Baltimore Afro-American celebrated its thirty-seventh anniversary by getting out an edition in five sections, consisting of forty-two pages. The photogravure section was especially interesting, illustrating the growth of the paper with portraits of those responsible for its development. A number of illustrated advertisements showed a gratifying amount of prosperity at the business end. Talking about "The Profits of Religion," the Pittsburgh Courier said that the injection of the religious issue, into this campaign had been a godsend to the Fellowship Forum. It added: A few months ago this Ku Klux Klan publication, published in Washington, D. C.; was a starving little sheet. All of a sudden it has waxed opulent and now boasts of a circulation of well over a million copies. This has been brought about by the injection of, the racial and religious issue into the campaign. Not satisfied with the funds that have already rolled on the waves of prejudice and bigotry, James S. Vance, the paper's editor and manager, is appealing for funds to add 900,000 more subscriptions to the circulation. He says, "The campaign in those states now ready to topple," he says. "I want finance that will enable me to single out Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, Virginia, Florida, Arkansas and Texas and turn probability into certainty." If Mr. Vance thinks that he can split the solid south over a question of religion he is very optimistic. True, there will be some defection this year, but all in all the solid south will remain solid. For the main issue in the South is not a liquor or religious question but the color question. Eveh such journalistic scavengers as the Fellowwhih Forum have their uses. If it has caused white Southerners to divide their hatred of the Negro with some other object, even for a time, it has served a useful purpose. Opposing the movement to unionize the Negro, longshoreman, the Louisiana Weekly of New Orleans said. It is known throughout the city that the Colored Longshoremen, with their hall on Jackson Avenue, was the first and only organization to receive a charter from the proper authorities, yet they are dominated by a much smaller white group* who holds their destiny in their hands because of the weakness of the colored leaders. Understand that with the union in force the colored longshoreman cannot hope to become a foreman or winchman, but such opportunities are open to him in an open shop. We understand that the colored worker is called upon to do the "heavy" work, while his white brother workman always draws the "light" work. We wonder why? We are also informed that the white longshoreman is never placed on the off-side of a ship but on the easier side of the ship. The Negra is always used for "breaking out cargo" and not for the lighter work on the deck? These questions are ones to be pondered well by those of our group who are contending for a place on the river. It would be well for them to remember the catastrophe which befall them twenty-eight years ago when these same, white bonghoremen's kindred hunted them up and down the front like they were a pack of colotes, shooting as everything that could be stunned as a skinko and making many jump into the river, where untold numbers were drowned. To tell the truth, the exact number of drowned workers was never ascertained because the bodies were never recovered. Uless unionism means equal opportunity for members of both races there does not appear to be any advantage to be gained by it. Emphasizing the necessity for undertaking "New Business," the Chicago Whip said: The field of business offers great opportunities for new exploits. We have done quite a bit in the fields of insurance, banking, real estate and journalism, and have also a reasonable number of barber shops, shoe shining parlors, tailor shops and resale shops. We have also fields of fields that we have not touched which offer great opportunities for the ambition. We have, for instance, no department stores of our own, no theaters, no shoe stores and few clothing stores. We even seem afraid to attempt the common neighborhood greasepots. The fields of business offer great opportunities to hardy prowers who have the courage and ability to fight against possible failures. If we would enter these fields and do so with the proper spirit, prepared to meet competition and not beg for support on a charity basis, we could Grated orange rind Mix and sift flour, taking-powder and salt, rub in one tablespoon butter, or other shortening, and moisten to a dough with milk. Roll thin, spread with remaining batter, sprinkle with sugar mixed with orange juice and rind, and roll up like a jelly-roll. Cut in slices, and place, cut side up, in buttered muffin pans. Sprinkle with remaining sugar, and bake in a hot oven. When small and dainty, these are good for afterimag keep among ourselves a great deal of money which is now entrenching others who simply have the courage and foresight to try the field. The business situation in Chicago, if this picture is correctly drawn, seems to be suffering from the same lack of diversified retailing observed in Halem. The way is still open for the pioneer in various lines of retail trade. Discussing the Cambridge Health Survey, Dr. S. Lowe Burnett in the Boston Chronicle said. In spite of the emphasis on the colored aspect of the survey as shown by some of the chapter headings, the true situation can be gathered from the author's explanation of the death rate among the Ward 10 Negroes. This section is one of the better residential districts of Cambridge, it is reasonable to conclude that the colonized people here are financially better off. This doubless is one of the important reasons for the low mortality rates from tuberculosis among them... even the Negro has demonstrated a satisfactory ability to withstand the ravages of tuberculosis... adequate public health machinery assist him in his efforts. These encouraging statements from one so well informed on the subject. The truth is, tuberculosis is an environmental disease. It is the companion of poor living conditions, Uhygienic surroundings and economic conditions have a greater bearing on its resultant high death rate than all the racial phases which may be presented. Dr. Burnett emphasized the importance of economic independence as a weapon against tuberculosis. Better salaries and wider opportunities for earning a living would be means to this end. A writer in the Norfolk Journal and Guide became quite worked up over the lament of a church editor, that the members of his congregatio greeted with merriment a Biblical drama, depicting Abraham's banishment of Hagar and her son, Ishmael. He deplored such levy as follows: The pity of the thing is that this audience of Negroes was not an exception. Rather, it was typical, North or south, east or west, in missions or in the so-called "upper class churches, in playhouses, in inking and anywhere, Negroes not to know when to laugh. Scores and words that would melt their fellow Americans to tears, affect them similarly" to a knock-down and drag-out burlesque show. While others are quietly thinking, or possibly looking away from the stage to keep from bursting into tears, Negroes are ridiculed. "I to longer wonder why their fellow-Americans resent their presence in the same theatre. The cause of this thing must be removed, if we would overcome such a failing. And here lies the cause, we do not use our imaginations properly. We do not enter realistically into the experiences of the characters before us. To us they are not flesh and blood people in arrests, battling overwhelming fate, reacting like human beings cannot help from doing under tragic circumstances. To us life may be sometimes tragic. But a play, depleting life at its tragic worst is merely a play, and a funny one at that. So we laugh while, others weep, we guilfaw while others meaningly sigh. Perhaps our teachers had better volunteer their services to church, lodges, labor unions, and other organizations, to give them in dramatic appreciation. Otherwise the world may yet come to think of us as mere clowns and buffoons. This lack of appreciation of tragedy is not confined to colored audiences. Brooklyn theatre-goers generally are accused of the same failing, so that many actors dreal to appear in that section. In her "Up to Date" column at the Chicago Defender, Mary Church Terrell enjoined "Don't say, lo, the poor Indian anymore." Her reasons were: Some years ago wise men declared that the "Indian was a vanishing race," and he would trouble his white friends who had robbed him of his lands but a short while longer. But there are nearly 17,000 more Indians today than there were 20 years ago, so it does not seem the red man is dying a natural death as rapidly as was expected. At any rate, he is considered a very important factor in the coming election and the coming legislative seeking hit vote. Let us hope he will get more recognition if he does high dugging at the polls, than some other groups we might mention. Although there are only 35,000 Indians in the United States, they have been well represented in congress in recent years. There have been two senators with Indian blood in their veins—Senator Curtis part Kaw, and Senator Oklahoma—with Rep. Hastings of Oklahoma, part Cherokee, in the house, and Houston B. Techee (Cherokee) register of the treasury under Woodrow Wilson. These Indians are the only men who give an order to the congress of the United States. Another group of citizens numbering 12,000 (20,000) have no representative in congress for 27 years. Why? The comeback of the Indian as an element to be counted with in the American commonwealth is a remarkable cake of the survival of the aborigines. It has its lesson for other races as well. --- CHURCH ACTIVITIES IN GREATER NEW YORK and bring the sick to be prayed for. Church. Rev. P. A. Price was the Refuge Church of Christ The week of October 29 began with an earnest missionary meeting led by Mrs. Fannie Williams. The Church of Christ Bible Institute held regular classes on Monday with Dean Lawson instructor for the evening. The students were present in large numbers. Visitors are always welcome. Questions cheerfully answered. Tuesday, October 30, Pastor Lawson with the senior choir and orchestra, paid tribute to Salem M. E. Church in honor of its fourth anniversary at its present location. Dr. Frederick A. Cullen, pastor of Salem, introduced Pastor Lawson, who used for his text: "For God so loved the world that He gave His Only Begotten Son, that whosoever beeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." St. John 3:16. The speaker stressed the fact that the Begotten Son was the Word that was made flesh and dwelt among us, and as the scripture further says, "He was in the world and the world was made by Him and the world knew Him, not." John 1:10. The speaker made plain the fact that Jesus Christ was none other than God, the Infinite Spirit, veiled in human flesh, and that Jesus was not a distinct or separate God, but God manifested in the flesh. (1 Timothy 3:16). "I hear, O Israel; the Lord our God, is one Lord." Deuteronomy 6.4. After the beloved disciple John had matured in years he gleaned a deeper vision of the Lord and wrote: "Behold what manners of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the Sons of God; therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knewth Him not." Wednesday, the Junior Church held its regular service, conducted by the junior deacons, Morris Utner and Leon B. D. Seely, Elder Peter Brown spoke from Acts 7:37. The Junior Church offered excellent selections. We invite junior of all denominations, and also juniors who are strangers in the city, to attend Wednesday nights. Junior prayer meeting was led by Hattie McDowd at the sunset hour, held daily. The entire, church and its officers mourn the loss of Lagrand Singleton, who died Wednesday, October 31. Brother Singleton was serving as president of the Refuge Church of Christ Benefit Union at time of his unexpected death. Interment Saturday November 3. in "Mt. Hope Cemetery." Thursday, November 1, Licentate Leon Rhons, late of Bridgeport, Conn, Church of Christ, spoke sincerely from Word of the Lord. Friday, November 2; was regular fast day. Each Friday, through the year is set aside for fasting and praying for the Lord to heal the bodies of those who are brought up for prayer. Many witnesses, consisting of members of the church, as well as many that are not members, testified to the healing nature of God manifested through the healing of their bodies. The testimonials come from those who had actually healed of various diseases and complaints, all by fasting and prayer on the part of God's people. Pastor Lawson notes that the special divine healing ceremony. Saturday, November 3; the Lord Watch Hour begins at midnight and continued until day break. And all night travelling prayer and practice and the pouring out of the water compliment to the Lord went on. This service was followed by the Sunday sunrise prayer meeting from 6 to 8 a.m. conducted by Deacon Goodman and his associates. The morning sermon on Sunday, November 4, was delivered by Elder James Manning, late of Chicago. Elder Manning used for his text James 3:14-15. His discourse was in sincere, effective and simple language, so plain until a small child comprehends its intrinsic value. He showed the harm brought on by too much talk. Men have learned to harms electricity and steam; control ships on sea and in the air; the beasts, birds, and things in the seas have been brought under subjection, let the tongue can no man tame. It is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. Elder Lawson recapitulated his message and requested the hearer to read for this week's scripture lesson. Corinthians 13th chapter; 3rd Psalms; Proverbs 3; in order to all who read these lesions might realize the harm and evil of too much talk. Despite the inclement weather Sunday night, a large crowd came out to hear the message of truth deliverer, Pastor Lawson, who spoke from Isaiah 63:10-12. Divine heal and baptismal service preceded the sermon. We heartily and cheerfully invite everyone to all of our services, held every night throughout the entire in the manner outlined in this column. In addition to the services mentioned, prayer meetings held daily mornings at 10, at 11, and bring the sick to be prayed for. The Refuge Church of Christ is at 82-56 West, 133rd street, Bishop R: C. Lawson, founder and pastor Paradise Baptist Church At the close of the Sunday school, Mother Rivers preached to us on "Love", from St. John 3:16. Love is stronger than strength and can perform things that strength could not. It is love that makes everlasting peace and governs the world and makes it possible for us to live among each other. It is far more powerful than radium. It knows no resistance, nothing can hinder love when it takes a good effect. We may ask God for better understanding so that we may get that divine love from on high. Sunday evening our pastor, Rev. H. W. Stanley, delivered the most instructive message that was ultra-comparison from St. John 4:24, "God is a Spirit." Subject "The Christian Church." He said a firm foundation cannot be erected without a principal. He explained how powerful the Holy Ghost is, and how it came. It came so suddenly as a mighty rushing wind and overflowed the Apostles soul. It was actually more than they could contain while being in this condition, they spoke in new tongues. But when a sufficient amount had left them they became normal, save for the spirit they possessed to proclaim the gospel of Christ. It is not difficult for the person who has been regenerated to love, to forgive, to abstain from lusts and to live according to the laws of God, but without this spiritual strength one cannot be regenerated. Grace Church of Harlem In spite of the rain a goodly number of the congregation attended communion service at 'Grace Church on Sunday morning W. Herbert King religious director, read the lesson after which the pastor, Dr. A. C. Garner, preached, taking his text "Prepare to meet thy God O. Israel" from Amos 4:12. It was a fine sermon of encouragement and showed that Dr. Garner had given his subject a good deal of thought and careful study. The biggest lesson brought out in his sermon was that no matter where we are or how lowly our walk in life that if we really want God we will always find Him right beside us After the sermon Dr. Garner gave ten minutes for "Faith Confessions" and a large number responded. Communion was administered to the congregation by Dr. Garnor, assisted by the deacons. Nathaniel Nobile Barrett jr., infant son of Nathaniel Nobile and Edith Price Barrett was christened by Dr. Garner. Immediately after the morning service the funeral services of Earl Bumford, a member of the Clerf Club were held: Dr. Garner, who is chaplain of the Clerf Club, preached the sermon. Grace Church choir assisted with the service. Sunday school, convened at 1:15 Attendance was small because of the rainy weather. The study of the "Life of Christ" under Dr. Garner, continues with unabted interest at the Wednesday evening Prayer Service. The interesting Sunday morning service was in charge of Dr. Garner. Plans for the bazaar, which is to be held from November 12-17 inclusive, are well underway. Mrs. Nannie Scott of Mrs. Stewarts Group is preparing an olic program, for Armistice Day, November 11 at 8 p.m. The final meeting of the Colored Women's Division of the National Republican Committee was held in the Grace Church "Center" on Thursday evening. Mrs. Cannon was the speakers. Tea was served at the Center Saturday from 5 to 7 p.m. Sunday afternoon at 4 p.m. the Omega Psi Phi presented Thomas Johnson, lenor of Boston in recital. Mr. Johnson has a pleasing personality and fine stage presence. Mr. Johnson was accompanied by Mr. Jountain at the piano. His Spirituals' were exceedly well sung. On Thursday November 8 Prof. A. C. Summs is presenting his pupils in recital at Grace Church. Elizabeth H.

This Sunday will also be our first evening prayer, at 8 p.m. which takes the place of our vesper service at 4:30, which is discontinued. Our attendance continues to increase which speaks well for the interest and enthusiasm of our members and friends. Rev. John H. Johnson preached an able sermon on last Sunday at our last vesper service. service. All of the clubs and auxiliaries of the church are well pleased with the success of the bazaar and are grateful to the members and friends who made its success possible. The Men's Club is desirous of getting as many men as possible on its books so as to make a success of its winter activities. St James Pres. Church Last Sunday morning was communion day at St. James. Despite the inclemency off the weather there was a large attendance. Several new members joined the church in the evening the pastor preached his first sermon of a series during the month of November on John Bunyan. St. James is making preparations to welcome the large body of welfare workers who will attend morning service the first Sunday in December. Pastor Imes will deliver a special sermon, and the chorus under the leadership of Dr. Melville Charlton will render special selections. Before communion, the rite of baptism was administered by the pastor to Barbara J. Johnson, infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. M Johnson, and Ernest William Phifer son of Mr. and Mrs. E, and Esther Phifer. Richard W. Adkenson, an adult, was also baptised. Several new members who joined the church since the last communion, were given the right hand of fellowship, and received into the membership of the church. Among the new members was, St. James fellowship student and pastor's assistant, Clarence Griggs who is a student of Union Theological Seminary Broadway and 120th street Officers of the Young People's Society of Christian Endeavor, were installed at the evening service, by the pastor. Members and friends of St. James are invited to register in the St. James School of Missions which begins November 7 and meets until December 26 2nd 7th Day Adv. Church "The first altar set up on the top side of this earth was a family altar;" declared Pastor Strachan to his congregation last Saturday morning. The theme of the hour was "Family Prayers." The minister chose for his text the twelfth chapter of Genesis and the seventh verse. Continuing, the speaker said, "In every place that Abraham pitched his tent , he raised an altar unto the Lord, around which he gathered his household daily. Abraham was to be the founder and head of a great nation, but the security of a nation may be determined by the homes of that nation wherein each morning and evening the parents and children supplicate the throne of Divine Grace. "One of the main distinquishing features, of a Christian home is its habit of gathering every member of the household daily for family worship. The worth of this habit is immeasurable. "Family worship! What a great anchor it is to the soul! It leaves upon the memory a fragrance that time cannot destroy. No young man or woman can forgel those hours when the loved ones in the home gathered for morning and evening." and a chapel; mother reads the singing; then all of us beid the knee in prayer. What an inspiring sight. And the angels report the experience to the dwellers in Heaven. "A family altar in a man's home sweetens and hallows its fellowship. It puts new strength and courage into the heart; it takes away the frictions of the day; it quickens the religious impulse and keeps the spiritual fires burning in the soul. "The early settlers on the American continent established family altars in their rude huts. Times have changer now. We as parents are sending forth our children into a wicked world without the holy restraints of family worship. What is going to hold our children in the hour of temptation." Evil companions are bound to drag them into the haunts of sin. "The economic struggle in our modern city life has much to do with the breaking down of our family altars. But Christian fathers and mothers should not yield to the mad rush of this evil age. We should at least once each day bow with our loved ones in prayer around one common altar. We should not take one step beyond the sill of our door without it risk is to great for us to run. Family prayers build a hedge about our bodies to preserve us, against accident and misfortune. "God has protected our homes as such, so why do we all not meet and ask for a continuation of His blessed Providence. Why do we not pray daily, for the sanctity of its walls; for the security of its ties and the strengthening of its bonds of love and confidence; why do we not pray daily that disease and harm be kept from our doors; why do we not pray daily for the care of the young and the comfort of the aged and the training of the youth. The home is first place where we could meet and pray for the conversion of our loved ones. That is the place where we should meet and pray for the help of the church, and the prosperity of the nation. "If more prayers were prayed in our homes today there would be little or no friction and misunderstanding there. If more prayers were prayed in our homes today, how much lighter would be the task of the church. We have come to the time where every family board a table of the Lord." St. Paul Baptist Church Monday night, October 29, Dr. J. C. Williamson, with the officers' junior choir, and members of Bethle Baptist Church, White Plains, were with us, and gave a fine service. Tuesday night was "Fraternal Night," when several fraternal orders had been invited to be present. Anticipating that they might not be present, the pastor engaged Licenitate John A. Doughty to preach a sermon, this he did in a helpful manner, and his daughter, Miss Agnes Doughty, sang a very sweet solo "Civic Night," was on "For Wednesday, but, although the speakers had given assurance that they would be on hand, they came so late, that the service had closed, and the people were either gone home, or were having refreshments before going Thursday night was "Abyssinians' Night," when Dr. A. C Powell, his officers and choir were present to actually dedicate the building Dr. Powell preached a masterly sermon, one filled with practical suggestions, and the choir rendered excellent music. Friday night the pastor had secured Rev. Mr. Twine, pastor of 1st Baptist Church, Sheepshead Bay, to preach the sermon. His was one of the best sermons we have heard in a long time. Sunday the pastor preached in the morning and evening, respectively, on "The Day Of Small Things" and "A Blank Check" On Heaven's Bank" In the afternoon Dr. K L Warren, with his chair, officers and members were present, it being the occasion of the 22nd anniversary of Rev. H. Arthur Booker's pastorate of the church This proved to be a sermon that touched on the things that should be thought about and acted on, as no sermon we ave heard. The choir was at its best, and that means that they grave us great music. Sister Sykes, whose illness was reported in our last notes, is somewhat improved Rush Memorial Church It was not what one might term an entirely happy congregation that challenged the inclement weather of last Sunday to be present at the services at Kush Memorial. Rather it was a group of Christian people whose hearts were somewhat saddened and whose spirits were low for they were come to worship for the last time under the pastorate of Dr. G. M. Oliver, who had served them faithfully and successfully for more than eight years. Not long ago a conference concerning matters pertaining to Zion took place between Bishop J. W Martin of the Ninth Episcopal Diocese and Bishop J. S.aldwell of course of time, the result of this conference became officially known. In a recent news item of Rush church, mention was made of the announcement of the exchange of pulpits by Dr. F. D. Douglas of Walter's Temple, Chicago, III, and Dr. G. M. Oliver of Rush Memorial New York City. The transfer of these pastors could only be made through and by the consent of the bishops in whost jurisdiction they served. This is not unusual nor contradictory to the laws of Zion Church. consent of the jurisdiction they unusual nor con-laws of Zion senior choirs isle singing the Ye Saints The as Dr. Oliver eleven o'clock. was attentive saw the beau- portrayed by powerful and taken from text "Our'Sin-bear Rendall Memorial Church In spite of the inclement weather on Sunday November 4, an appre-ciable audience listened to the sermon of the pastor, Dr. T. J. B. Harris, on the "Right Choice. The pastor made it clear that the choosing of a leader at this time to direct the affairs of this great government should be done with consideration, vision and courage. The pastor spoke at the evening service. One person united with the church, Horace T. Wilson The junior and senior choirs marched down the aisle singing the processional, "Look Ye Saints' The Sight Is Glorious," as Dr. Oliver entered is pulpit at eleven o'clock. The congregation was attentive and silently praying, saw the beautiful mental picture portrayed by the speaker in is powerful and practical sermon taken from text Isaiah 53.6, subject, "Our/Sin-bearer." The 'discourse was divided into two principal parts: (1) Sad Confession; (2) Precious Consolation. The confession made by man concerning is wandering hespeaks for itself his likeness to sheep. Sheep, grazing in a pasture become so absolutely absorbed in the act of feeding, that they go with head down, until finally they find themselves far away from the fold. Man, likewise, in is mad rush for fame, power honor, position, wealth, etc., unconsciously loses sight of the best and most potential need for a successful like, and like sheep, go astray, having turned each into his own way. But God has not dealt with man according to his ways and actions, but He has taken care of all his iniquities, amassed them, and laid them on His Son. This is our precious consolation. need for the best sheep, go as each unto his has not dealt to his works has taken care amassed them, is Son. This is position. Diver made a long sheep might and perform the men and women, the Holy Com- In the morning the pastor, D Ward Nichols, preached, named for his text, "Tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem until ye are enclosed with power on high." Not having preached for two Sundays Rev Nichols had increased power and in his masterful way made this sermon long to remember. The Sunday school held its regular session at 3 o'clock. The lesson being one concerning law enforcement gave great opportunity to stress the importance of voting on November 6. In closing Dr. Oliver made a plea that the straying sheep might return to the fold, and perform the duties of cristian men and women. At three o'clock, the Holy-Communion services were full of spirituality and religious fervor. Rev M. L. Barclay, recently of California, preached the sermon. Much stees 'was placey upon the necessity of men and women having faith and confidence in the ability or the Master to save. Love one another was the admonition given the congregation as Rev. Barclay closed his sermon. Dr. Oliver preached his farewell sermon at 8 o'clock. The words of the text found in Revelation 22 21 constituted the beautiful benediction, so often pronounced upon his people by Dr.Oliver, but as these words fell upon the ears of the people at this time, they seemed to carry with them the echo of a curse. Having served, in spirit and in truth, the church and community in which he has lived for the past eight years. Dr. Oliver stated that he was now ready to take up the cause elsewhere. He had friends, members, officers and all coworkers' farewell in a very effective manner, and words are inadequate to express the feeling of appreciation and gratitude which filled the hearts of everyone present. Perhaps the most Christlike spirit was manifested when Dr. Oliver made an open plea for the Cooperation of all on behalf of Dr. Douglas, the new pastor, who will take charge at Rush Memorial Sunday, November 11.

With a cast of forty-odd performers headed by the excruciatingly funny Billy Higgins, "Fancy Trimmings" is at least as pleasing a revenue as Harlem has seen in many months. From the opening to the grand finale, "Fancy Trimmings" is replete with novel and delightful theatrical creations. In the opening scene Ernest Whitman sings "A King For A Day." During the rendition of the song, a beautiful panorama is revealed during which soldiers, dancing girls and singers representing all the principal nations of the world appear. The number and spectacle was roundly applauded by the audience. From then on, the revue moved quickly and delightfully through beautiful dances, side-splitting comedy and beautiful music and singing. The cast of "Fancy Trimmings" is a notable one It includes Billy Higgins, Ernest Whitman, Johnny Lee Long, Miss Whiteside, Catherine Patterson, Putney Dandridge, Colper and Thomas, Pickinny Four, George Staten, Crackshot, 18 Dancing Boys and Girls and Irving Cummings Band "Blackbirds" Song Hit Seldom in the history of show business has a song had the dramatic background that "I Can't Give You Anything But Love, Baby," hit melody in Lew Leslie's "Blackbirds of 1928," is now enjoying. Written by Dorothy Fields, daughter of the veteran actor and producer, Lew Fields, and Jimmy McHugh, it appeared doomed to failure until Lew Leslie saw in it the possibilities which have made it the most sensational song hit of the last five years. Contrary to the custom usually followed by Miss Fields, she thought of the title of the song before a bar of music had been written for it Jimmy McHugh was so impressed by the title he wrote the first draft of the melody the same afternoon and finished the final draft the following night. "Delmar's Revels" was about to open at the time and in search of a hit number for the show accepted this song. For reasons that are still unexplainable, the number failed to register and was withdrawn from the show before the Broadway premiere. The disappointed authors discarded the number and turned to other material. Several months later Lew Leslie contracted with them to write the music and lyrics of "Blackbirds." The score was completely turned out when Leslie asked them to write what he termed "A crooning ballad that could also be used as a dance number." "We have one," said Miss Fields, "that we wrote quite a while ago. Would you care to hear it?" The greatest of all motion pictures—"THE KING OF KINGS" will have its first local showing at the Lafayette Theatre next week. Built at a cost of over Three Million Dollars, with a cast of some five thousand people and some of the greatest stars in the motion picture world, "KING OF KINGS" tells in scenes of unforgettable splendor and pathos the story of Jesus. Words deify an accurate description of this picture Statesmen, preachers, teachers and theatrical managers all over the country-unite in asking the public-young and old—to see this greatest of dramas and most stirring of spectacles. A great stage program will also be presented at the Lafayette Theatre next week in addition to the "King Of Kings." This will be "Sundown" a musical extravaganza produced by Jesse H.

Leslie listened in silence and when McHugh played the chorus again, Miss Fields sang the lyrics. The face of the producer lit it up pecstatically, "That's marvelous!" he shouted. "I wanr you," cut in McHugh, "that this song is deceptive. It already was in one show and was thrown out." "Listen, brother," came from the enthusiastic Leslie. "I don't care what happened to this song in the past. I'm going to make it the biggest song hit in the country!" And Lew Leslie has. It not only is sweeping the country, but is equally as popular in Europe. It has broken every known record for popular song and phonograph sales of any song hit in years. And now, six months after it was first introduced in "Blackbirds" is going stronger than ever.

It is a characterization rich in sympathy and sentiment. Around this character, "Grandma Beinle," revolves the story of the four sons, three of whom march off to fight for the motherland—many of the scenes take place in Bavaria—while the fourth son, in America, sails to fight for the stars and stripes.

WHITE THE NEW YORK TIMES LYNDON HOFFMAN CALDWELL DISPLAYS TECHNICAL LIMITS IN PROGRAM OF PIANOFORTE MUSIC BY BRAHMS, ETC. London Hoffman Caldwell, pianist, organist, teacher, a graduate of the College of Fine Arts of Syracuse in playing upon the pianoforces now conducting a music studio at 7 Glenada place, Brooklyn, offered a program of music by Haydn, Brahms, Schumann and Chopin to a large audience which well-nigh filled the concert hall of the Brooklyn Academy of Music on Tuesday evening, October 30. Many, notables in New York's music life were present. ROLAND HAYES Will make first appearance in Two Seasons at Carnegie Hall, Nov. 15th. Mr. Caldwell displayed an uneven technic, hardly of sufficient broadth to meet the exigent demands of the taxing program. This was clearly evidenced in the interpretation of the allegro con bo movement of Haydn's Sonata in D Major, the pianist's first offering, and amply supported by the large o sostenuto and presto mason troppo of the Sonata; the Brahm's group, comprising the Intermezzo in A Minor, Ballade in G Minor and Capriccio in F Minor; Schumann's Papillons; and the final Chopin group, Prelude in C Sharp Minor, Nocturie l n E Major and Scherzo in C Sharp Minor. St. Mark's Choir To Sing "Hiawatha" at Brooklyn Music Academy St. Mark's Choir To Sing "Hiawatha" at Brooklyn Music Academy Notwithstanding the pianist's technical fluency, it was not always of the clearest and most limpid quality. There were occasional passages in which occurred a slurring of the tonal clarity, but these seemed to result more from temperamental impulsiveness than from a lack of climatic ability. On Friday evening, November 9 St. Mark's M. E. Church choir of New York City will make its initial appearance in Brooklyn at the Academy of Music, in a rendition of Samuel Coleridge-Taylor's "Song of Hiawatha," under auspices of St. Philip's P. F. Church of Brooklyn. This famous sopr of 75 mixed voices, comprising such well-known artists as Minnie Brown, soprano; George Edward Simmons, tenor; Benjamin Ragsdale, bartone, under the direction of E. Aldaume, Jackson, A. A. G. O., is one of the best aggregations of musical talent to be heard anywhere in New York City. They have rendered several successful concerts at Carnegie Hall, receiving the enthusiastic commendation of the audiences, composed of music lovers of both races But even though the melodic waters were sometimes a bit muddy, the artist showed a sympathetic and intelligent comprehension of the composers moods. Possessed of a strong and vivid personality, there is a definite Caldwellian flavor to all of his interpretive endeavors, but fortunately this is not permitted to overshadow the musical content of the composer's production. Several additional numbers were given, one of special interest being a transcription of the Negro Spiritual, "Ol-Time Religion, is good enough for me," which, in the absence of any identifying announcement, is taken to have been the pianist's own arrangement. It was interestingly embellished and harmonically elaborated, but there were passages too tritely sophisticated. Mr. Caldwell stated that this number was played particularly for members of the Concord Baptist Church of Christ, where he is and has been for several years the organist and choir director. Their appreciation was duly expressed through the burst of applause at conclusion of the number. Young Tenor From Boston Sings In New York Prices of admission range from 50 cents for second balcony seats to $125 for orchestra seats, and may be obtained at the box office Chinnae Johnson, a young tenor, came down from Boston and sang at Grace Congregational Church of Harlem, West 139th street, the Rev. A. C. Garner, pastor, on Sunday afternoon, November 4, under auspices of Xi Phi Chapter of the Omega, Psi Phi Fraternity. The miserable weather conditions probably was responsible for the elim audience. CARNEGIE HALL THURSDAY EVENING NOVEMBER 15 Roland Hayes Mr. Johnson is an Alabaman, and studied at Morehouse College, Atlanta, where he sang with the college glee club. He later entered New England Conservatory, graduating with the vocal class of 1926. He came to New York heralded as "a well-trained musician of noted natural gifts," and as "a singer who already has made his path." But it is this reviewer's sad duty, to record that these advance claims were not supported by the singer's offerings. First of all, there was consistent steadfastness in straying from the pitch. In addition there was a lack of resonance in the lower and middle registers, and when essaying into the upper reaches, the tone quality became strained and strident, impregnated with nasality. It was suggested that the tenor was suffering from a cold, and if this was true, and if this condition was responsible for the poor quality of his work, it would have been much more to his benefit to have postponed the recital rather than impose upon the audience with an unsatisfactory performance. Negro Tenor Tickets At Box Office Mason And Hamlin Piano Possessed of a pleasing personality, the singer won a sympathetic hearing, and here and there were vocal eminations that indicated possible promise, but the voice was unequal to the task put upon it by the program. Incidentally, there were no printed programs, the singer being compelled to announce each group from the stage. His offerings included the "Salve dimora" aria from Gounod's "Fauct", L'Invitation au voyage" by Dupare; "Nell", Faure; "Nuit dite"; Tremzios; "Murmur zephyrs", Jensen; "O vision entrancing." Thomas; "Now sleeps the crimson petals," Quilter; "She rested by the broken brook," ColeridgeTaylor; "The hallowed hour"; "Wood; O, rocks don't fall on me" and "Didn't it rain!" by Burleigh, and "Goin' to shout" by Mann. The accompaniments were played by a Mr. Fountain of Boston. Davis Sisters In Recital at St. Mark's Brooklyn Academy Of Music Lafayette Ave. & Ashland Pl. AUSPICES St. Phillip's P. E. Church Rev. N. P. BOYD, Rector Friday Eve'g Nov. 9th A splendid audience assembled at St. Mark's M. E. Church, the Rev. John W. Robinson, pastor, on the evening of Thursday, November 1, to hear a musical program given by the two sisters, the Misses Marie P and Ella Belle Davis of New Rochelle, pianist and soprano, respectively. The affair was under auspices of the Silver Spray Club, Mrs. Lucy Manners, president, and it was marked as one of the most enjoyable affairs of the season. Besides playing the accompaniments for her sister's songs, Miss Marie played one piano number, an arrangement of Strauss's "Beautiful Blue Banube" by Schulz-Evler. The vocal offerings given by Miss Ella Belle were two Massenet numbers, "Elgie" and the Salome aria from "Herodiac"; "Quando mano so loetta" by Puccini; Serenade by Tosseli; "Ah, fors e lur" from Verdí's "Traviata"; "The Birth of Morn" by Lonec; "The Star" by Rogers; "With verdure clad" from Haydn's "Creation"; "The Little Damozel" by Novello; Lullaby by Scott; "A Birthday" by Woodman, and Spirituals; "I stood on de.

Mr. Talbert sang three groups, one of art songs by Coleridge-Taylor and Montague Ring, whose musical careers were and are placed in London; a group which included songs dedicated to the singer by Grald Taylor and Edna Rosalyne Heard; other songs by Consuela Cook and J. Rosamond Johnson; and a group of Spirituals arranged by H. F. Burleigh, W. L. Dawson and Mr. White. Feen a mint The Laxative You Chew Like Gum No Taste But the Mint The violin offerings by Mr. White included Coleridge-Taylor's Ballad in C Minor and his African Dance; Burleigh's Andante; and compositions by the violinist, Jubilee Songs, Negro Chant, Serenade, Wock Song and Negro Dance. The program gave no information as the accompanist. Otto I. Bebauer of the St Louis public schools, formerly a student and teacher of singing here in New York, gave an address on Negro Music and Dr. Katharine B. Young, state supervisor of schools of Missouri, presided. of the Academy. The committee is anxious to make this effort a tremendous success, as it may be the forerunner of a number of similar concerts to be given in Brooklyn by members of our race. MUSIC NOTES Mrs. Bertha DesVerney and then Junior Concert Company made their debut over the air in a broadcast from station WEVD Friday. November 2, and-gave an excellent performance. Those who participated in the event were Gladys Hunt, who sang "Little Mother of Mine" by Harry Burleigh; "Madeline," a duet offered by Beatrice Garr and Gladys Stitt; the entire company of eight young women who make up part of this concert Company rendered "Paean to Summer" by F. Von Suppe, and "In a de Morning" a new spiritual arrangement by J. Bernie Barbour. Mrs. DesVerney, who is a member of the cast of "Show Boat," is training this group for concert and radio work. Miss Gwendolyn Walker Makes Her Vocal Debut On last Friday evening, October 26 1928, Miss Gwendolyn Walker, a young soprano of Brooklyn, made her debut in a song recital at the Central Branch Y. M. C. A. auditorium. She rendered a program of four groups in a pleasing manner, "Birthday" by R. Huntington Woodman and "Morning" by Oley Speaks, selections from the first group were most appreciatively received by the audience. The young artist further delighted her audience with a group of "Indian Love Lyrics" by Amy Woodford Fenden. In the third group "When the heart is young" by Dudley Buck and "Big Lady Moon" by S. Coleridge Taylor, were rendered with charm and ability and evoked prolonged applause. Miss Walker captured her audience, with her rendition of "The Cuckoo Song" by Liza Lehmann, which was perhaps her crowning effort of the evening and the "Winds In the South" by J. Prindle Scott. After completing her program Miss Walker was requested to sing several selections that she had occasionally sung over the radio, J. Rosamond Johnson's "Awakening," "The Big Brown Bear," and the "Lilac Tree." The encore group was completed with a repetition of "The Cuckoo Song." The young artist was accompanied by Mrs. Helen Howland Price, one of Brooklyn's outstanding artists, whose competent performance at the piano contributed considerably to the marked success of Miss Walker in her musical debut Mrs. Price is identified with the Howland studio. The charming young ladies who served as ushers were the Misses Mable, J. Hollings and Grace A. Rhodes of Brooklyn; Clara and Sadie Noisette of New York City.

The 4th chapter of John and the 24th verse, was coven by our pastor for his text; God is spirit and they that worship Him, must worship Him in spirit and in truth", Subject: "Worship." He spoke of Jesus going through Samaria regardless of the prevailing prejudice and of the three characteristics of God; life, love and spirit, which connote self consciousness and self existence. Among the outward forms of worship Christ endorsed were baptism and communion. He defined true worship as the communion of the soul with its God and emphasized the fact that one can worship Him anywhere. It was a spiritual, soul-stirring message. The La France Club: the youngest in the church, gave $50 on the building fund. The Deacon Board made a presentation to Trustee John Younger, the church clerk, for long and faithful service for over 30 years The two ible classes met at 1:30. The B. P. P.

After the "Get Acquainted period", the choir sang "Almost Persuaded." The service was then turned over to Mrs. Ricetta Wallace, who had charge of the literary program. The Mohawk Quartet gave four selections throughout the program The last one was "Desecrated the Sabbath." They were all excellently rendered bringing out and blending the pure harmony of their voices. They were accompanied by Miss Hunt. A reading by Dr. Ardella Dabney was excellent, and also the piano selection by Mrs. Carrie B Overton. A Philip Randolph of the brotherhood of Sleeping Car Potters, and of the Messenger Magazine, delivered an address on "Idealism and the Modern World." His theme was concerning the growth of materialism over culture. His discourse was both instructive and constructive. The soprano solo by Mrs. Helen B. Williams, accompanied by herself, and the tenor solo by Chas. H. Simmons, accompanied by Miss Helen Dougherty, were both excellently rendered. There was a rising vote of thanks extender to Mrs. Wallace and her participants for the excellent program. After the service Mrs. Wallace entertained her guests in the dining room. At the evening service, Dr. Hayes preached from Acts 9; 4-5; "And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying 'unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecuted thou me? And he said, 'Wo art thou Lord and the Lord said, I am Jesus wom thou persecuted, it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.'" He explained how the death of Stephen (who forgave is enemies while dying) took effect on Saul in such a way as to make his conversion possible even when he was jealously attempting to ruin the christians, whom he believed were teaching' heresy. He spoke of the mental strife of Saul and explained how oxen were broken into service by allowing them to kick against pricks. He also spoke of how Christ identifies Himself with His people saying 'Why persecuted thou me The sermon is inspiring and appealing. Two people poined and the collection for the day was $2,231.53 of of this amount $1,871 50 were loans and campaign money.

On its site will be erected a modern office building which, it is said, will house the various Mott Haven departments of the Pullman, Company and the New York Central Railroad. The passing of this ancient landmark, which in days of old was the favorite congregating place for porters when they had "checked in" from their trips on the road, will recall to memory those porters, who were wont to gather there in by gone days, but who have since passed to the Great Beyond. In the old building's heyday, its ground floor, facing the intersection of Morris avenue and 161st street, was its most prosperous floor. The upper part of the building contained living quarters, most of which were occupied by Pullman porters and their families; and, in those days, these quarters were considered modern apartments. This of course was before the extension of colored Harlem beyond the environs of 135th street. So, it was a prosperous proposition then, even as an apartment building. But its prosperity from that source was nothing in comparison with the prosperity which came to it by way of the ground floor. In these days, this floor housed a barber shop, a restaurant and a saloon. The barber shop was then run by one Rick, whose introduction, which was always self-made, to new customers was that he was "the best barber in town" and, as the desire for "straight hair" hadn't become such a physical desideratum with us as it is today, between the natural propensity of his craft and his adapness with his shears, Rick's shop was always a busy place. The restaurant also did a thriving business, especially at the lunch hour. However, neither Rick's parlor nor the restaurant was the magnet that draw the "boys" to the building as a meeting place. The main attraction was the room on the corier; and what times were had there! If the old place could only sing a swan song before the last trace of it disappears, what memories it could unfold! What tales it could tell. What a list of names it could produce out of the past, names of those who enjoyed its offerings, sometimes well, and sometimes a little too well. It might tell about little "Jimmie" Hawks, a Southern minister's son. Had "Jimmie" lived there is no telling what vocation he would have been following today, for "Jimmie" was a young man. He came North to earn money to continue his scholastic training, and every year after the Pullman summer season was over, he "was going back to school," but when winter came, it usually found "Jimmie" inventing some excuse for not returning. He never did go back. He couldn't resist the convivial life of the "boys" who gathered around Luke's place. Yes, he did return, after all, but he was carried this time. His school days were over. Then, there was waiy Airmy Clemens, with the small body and the big heart, who never knew How to say "no" to a friend, and whose "friends" would multiply like flies around a mohasses keg, when he entered the place for a drink. Like "Jimmie" Hawks, he went in his prime. And, who of those days, can forget old Oscar Lee, whose heart, was broken when they took him out the sleeping car service and put him to cleaning cars? Oscar had a reputation which he consistently upheld and that was, that he was a better camel than any other porter in the district. In justice to his memory, it may be said that he maintained that reputation to the end. Others that pass by, in the parade of bygone day are too numerous to mention here, but among this host the names of "Buffet" Taylor, Will Ethridge and Charlie Jackson, all of whom made up that crowd of convivial fellows, known as the "boys", and all of whom have crossed the Great Drive, must be added. And as they pass by in the memories of yesteryear, we think of the old Mott Haven building and fancy we hear it saying, I, too, am about to pass." W. H. Bowe, President of the Pullman Porters Replying to your communication of the 22nd, in reference to Mrs. Maude Jones proposition for an exhibition sponsored by the men and families in our group, I consider the idea thoughtful and timely and deserving of serious consideration.
