Girl Returns, Solves 3-Yr.Mystery Pretty Girl Who Disappeared From Home February 20,1926, Surprises Parents On Their 40th Anniversary Returns To Home in Jamaica, L. I., With Husband As Friends Gather To Felicitate Her Parents On Long, Happy Wedded Life After three years, lacking less than a month, the mystery surrounding the disappearance of pretty 17-year old Serena Condy, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. P. Condy of Jamaica, L. I., was solved when Serena and the husband she had run away to marry appeared at her parents' home, happy and content, and unaware, apparently, of the country-wide search which had been made for the girl through the press, police and other agencies. On Wednesday, January 23, Mr. and Mrs. Condy had been married forty years, and in anticipation of the anniversary had invited a few intimate friends to come to their home at 109-27, 159th street, and join in a celebration of the unusual event, a privilege which does not come to many couples. Disappeared February 20. 1926. In looking forward to the event, the only thing that caused a shadow to flit across their minds and give their heartstrings a sickening ting was the mysterious disappearance of their daughter, Serena, on February 20, 1926. It would mark the third year since the girl had left home, without one word or intimation as to what had been her fate. All the agencies known for the locating of missing persons were enlisted in trying to get some trace of the daughter, but to no avail. How and where Serena went, remained an untold story. So after many disappointing clues and after some elusive which were decidedly malicious, the parents had begun to resign themselves to the idea that their daughter's case was another Dorothy Arnold case. Stranger Than Fiction. Life, however, is stranger than fiction. Mr and Mrs, Condy celebrated their forty years of married life with the tew friends, as they had planned, and it turned out to be the happiest celebration that they have enjoyed in all the two-score years of their wedded life. For among those who came to join in the celebration were Serena the missing daughter, and her husband. It developed that Serena is happily married. She and her husband made the visit aitting climax to a happy event. Thanks Helping Agencies. When seen by a reporter for The Age and questioned relative to the circumstances surrounding his daughter's disappearance and marriage Mr Candy begged to be excused from discussing the circumstances, then than to say that Serena was married and comfortably situated. "White," said he, "my family and myself feel that we are deeply indebted to the friends and agencies which have given so freely or their help and sympathy, in our trouble, yet we are so feel that no good will be accomplished by further publici- Dean Whittaker To Speak At Tuskegee Founder Day Celebration For Alumni A.

TAYLOR COLORED GIRL IS RETURNED TO WHITE FAMILY Only Stayed One Week In Home of Colored Family, Moping: All Time Paterson, N J—After a week's stay in the home of Mrs. Annie L. Randolph, welfare worker, 607 East 22nd street, Alise Martin, 16-year old girl, is back in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Theron Saville Allen, Little Falls, the white family with whom she has lived since the age of two years. A story in the New York World some weeks ago disclosed the fact that the girl was being kept from association with other children and was not permitted to attend school. An investigation was instituted by the authorities and it was decided that the girl should be removed to the home of Mrs. Randolph and given a chance to attend school and church with her own people. The long time she had lived with the Alleluia had created an attachment which caused her to be reluctant to leave them, but it was stipulated by Mrs. Randolph that in the girl she was not happy the girl would be returned to the white family. Moped All The Time In the Randolph home, Alise moped all the time. She could not find interest in either school or church, so Mrs. Randolph decided to take her back to the Allen home. Alise was "given" to the Allens by her mother when they were living at Lowdensville, Abilene Co., Ca. and they brought her to New Jersey and she gave her a go; he child had no recollection of her mother, she said, but expressed a hope that the parent was "somewhere in New York." The mother, Mrs. Jennie Martin, has been located at 2542 Seventh avenue, New York City, and she came over to Paterson and accompanied Fluse and Mrs. Randolph on the return trip to the Allen home, which is reported that the child was pleased at being allowed to go back to Fluse and to resume her task of cooking, cleaning and doing practically all the house work for the white family.

All letters and make cheques and money orders payable to THE NEW YORK AGE HARLEM HOSPITAL TROUBLES Every now and again there is some public entry as to conditions at the Harlem hospital, upon which it is deemed necessary to direct popular attention. Sometimes it may be a charge of discrimination in select of the patients or some injustice involved in the dropping of one of the staff or doctors or nurses. These are all matters that should be settled by the governing board of the hospital, which is in a position to sift all charges of this nature and such action as would be necessary to correct the situation and restore public confidence in the hospital management. Harlem Hospital is primarily a community institution, and owing to its location and environment a large proportion of the community it is intended to serve is the Negro race. As a city institution it is embraced under the head of the city board comprising Bellevue and Allied Hospitals. It also has a special governing board of its own which regulates its internal affairs. An eminent medical authority, when the needs of the colored citizens of Harlem in the way of hospital service were referred to, said that the group in question should by some means represent on the board of Harlem Hospital and thus be enabled to sit and know the reasons governing its management. In the reorganization which is planned for the hospital service of the whole city, the new commissioner in charge of such matters, should be impressed with the desirability of keeping informed as to the needs of the various groups of population. Other groups have their representatives on the advisory boards of the various hospitals, so it would be preeminently fitting to have a Negro representative on the board of Harlem Hospital. There are serious reasons for the members of the race to take up this matter of hospital service. In Harlem Hospital considerable progress has been made in bettering conditions. It has accepted as informed properly qualified members of the race who have passed examination, it has employed colored nurses and visiting physicians and surgeons on its staff, to the advantage of its patients and the community in general. Nevertheless, there have been these periodic complaints of discrimination and favoritism in appointments and removals. The colored medical fraternity in Harlem might do much to remedy matters, if it was more united in spirit and action, but there appears to be too great a division for its influence to be exerted decisively. It remains for the lay members of the community, the men and women of Harlem, to manifest a live interest in hospital affairs, secure adequate representation on the board of Harlem Hospital and learn how things are run. Then there is the matter of discrimination and race intolerance exhibited by the Presbyterian Hospital authorities still unexplained, in the exclusion of a colored nurse from training and the refusal of a private room to the wife of a Harlem clergyman. These are live issues that affect the life and health of the race, as well as its status in the community. A united effort to secure a representative on the board of Harlem Hospital is the first step to be taken. The manifestation of a greater interest in the welfare of hospital inmates would provide an appropriate mission for some of our women's clubs. PRESIDENTIAL HUMOR Through a special to the New York Herald Tribune last week the public was told show President Coolidge established a White House precedent by inviting fourteen officials of the House and Senate to breakfast with him. This was an honor hitherto reserved for senators and representatives, but this time President Coolidge paid a graceful tribute to the permanent officials who know more about national affairs than most of the members of Congress. A significant feature of the gathering was described as the enjoyment shown by Mr. Coolidge. joined in jokes with his guests and kept up a running fire of conversation." As a sample of the style of humor which tickled Mr. Coolidge and his guests, we reproduce the following paragraphs: The Rev. Mr. Phillip, Senate chaplain, started the only pun on prohibition probably ever mentioned by a White House guest when he told the story of the small mouse who, watching a man dining from a table, one corner of the table, offered crumbs from the table. When the mouse had finished the first crumbs, the chaplain narrated, the man soaked a few crumbs in cognac and offered them. The mouse made short work of the liquor immersed crumbs and came back for more. The man said, "I will wait with a knife if cognac on the floor. The mouse imbibed, then stood on his hind legs and said, 'Now bring on your cat.'" The President laughed heartily. David Barry, the Senate sergeant at arm, known to his friends as waggish, then said to the President: "Are there any little holes around here where somebody might imitate that mouse?" This brought a heartier laugh from the Chief Executive and the entire guild in charge of the President was able to joke a joke on Mr. Putnam, the Congressional Librarian for the last thirty-five years. The President desired to talk to Mr. Putnam about the library of Thomas Jefferson now on the Congressional shelves. It is said to be well known to the President and others that Jefferson selected the letters to the letters of one word to bring together the letters "TJ," this serving to identify the volumes for all time. The President asked Mr. Putnam about it. Mr. Putnam confessed he had been Libarian of Congress for thirty-five years and had never heard of it. Again the wagittig Mr. Barry spoke up: "when I was a few years he will find it out. Mr. President." The President and his guests engaged in another laugh at the expense of Mr. Putnam. This may seem feeble enough stuff to provoke jocularity even under the stimulating influences of breakfast sausages, hot cakes and coffee, but we think the informal composition of the party contributed to the light spirits of the occasion. Besides the two chaplains and the librarian, there were the public printer,ergeants-at-arms, doorkeepers and other officials of both houses. All these had permanent jobs and there were none to ask favors of the President. Hence his freedom from care and ability to laugh at a liquor joke. Being the President of the United States is a more or less serious matter, according to the constitution of the individual holding that office. Some men have suffered, under its burden of greatness and isolation. But Mr. Coolidge appears to have endured its hardships with the tenacity of his native hills and a preparing to lay aside its cares with hisristine sense of humor unimpaired. He will go down in history as the typical New England President.

In what were known as the good old days, before prohibition became a constitutional amendment and voting machines part of New York election, there used to be much recrimination as to the buying and selling of votes. Even in those happy days it was estimated a hazardous In what were known as the good old days, before prohibition became a constitutional amendment and voting machines a part of New York election, there used to be much recrimination as to the buying and selling of votes. Even in those happy days it was estimated a hazardous proceeding in the uncertainty that ensued as to whether the goods were actually delivered or not. Certain practical politicians used to relate hoary anecdotes of how various voters with itching palms would accept money from the opulent workers for Citizens Reform ticket and then vote the regular ticket as they always had done. But such devious ways of turning an honest penny by spoiling the Reformers is now a thing of the past. The vote as utilized now in a different way The active and alert voter who knows the value of his vote enrolls with the party of his choice, votes at primaries and elections and is a member of his district organization. In time of need or trouble he can appeal to his ward or district leader for aid and assistance, and if he has the right kind of leader he invariably get it. If he has a head for politics he becomes captain of his election district and takes pride in getting out the full party vote on election day. If he is exceptionally qualified and represents a large enough group of voters, he may become in time a clerk in a magistrate's court or a deputy under some city commissioner. This is what his vote may bring him when combined with the votes of his neighbors, who thereby get representation of their group in the various departments of police, health, charity and other city activities. This is one of the reasons why every man and woman qualified to vote in this city should exercise that privilege. Too many of us are apt to neglect the franchise on the ground that "it doesn't mean anything to me," or that "it isn't worth the trouble." Both of these reasons are fallacious and inadequate. The ballot means something to every person who works or abides within the city limits, to go no further. Voting strength is the measure of representation an government, and taking municipal government alone, this is something that touches the city dweller in his everyday life. It regulates his coming and his going, through city transportation, taxi regulations and anti-jay-walking ordinances; it affects the cost of his rent and living by taxation and in general makes him conform to certain standards of conduct. By using the ballot the members of the various groups of the city population assert their voting strength and are accorded a corresponding measure of representation in city government. As we have stated, deputyships in the various departments of city control are given to representatives of certain groups, possessing the requisite voting strength. labor leader of Man provision of funds a tension of the local and sewage system ded-as necessary for of the city. Fear aggression is treat other editorial, with that, "just as Uncle heretofore played w If the colored citizens would secure the representation in city affairs to which their voting strength would entitle them, they must take an active part in politics and use the ballot to advance their civic status. Votes are no longer to be bought or sold, but they can be used to secure representation in government through appointments in various departments. POWERS OF CONGRESS The powers of Congress as exercised by the Senate and the House in recquisitorial investigations can in both approval and criticism, at the Sunday luncheon of the National Republic Club of New York City. Two of the Arkansas Senators approved the right of the Senate to investigate its members former Senator Thomas of that State a menace in the extremes, gone to in cases of Senators Vare of Pennsylvania and Smith of Illinois. He referred to the cases as "ante-mortem" investigation and said: "If it can do this to Pennsylvania it can do the same to Georgia, Arizona, or Maine, and what it can it will do as the exigencies of the future may demand." And the former Arkansas Senator well knows how the methods electing Senators in his own State will justify such action. Frederic R. Coudert, famous a constitutional lawyer, contended that the liberty of the individual was threatened and the Constitution overridden by such inquiries. He characterized the Senate investigations of the affairs of Senators Smith and Vare and the oil scandal "anti-constitutional" if not "unconstitution." He declared that the liberty of individual was endangered by the growing encroachments of the legislative branch of the government. The South oligarchist and the legal adviser to central agreed in their opposition to Congressional investigations, although for different reasons. Representative Hamilton Fish, Jr., New York, while approving the inquisitorial powers of Congress which the House has exercised less frequently took occasion to defend the integrity the members of both bodies. He demaded the "all too prevalent" criticism of Congress by the public and the as wholly injustified. He declared that there was "no more honorable legislative body in the world." The powers of both houses of Congress to investigate their members, as well other branches of the government, are considered good or bad, according the use that is made of them. Right used they should curb corruption in correct injustice practiced by those high places. Wrongly used they may infect injury upon the innocent and imprive the people of their constitutional rights. Then Congress at times lacks courage to carry out a righteous investigation to its logical conclusion, as the case of the Ku Klux Klan. The powers of Congress to impulse and investigate should be exercised with courage and discretion The powers of Congress as exercised by the Senate and the House in recent inquisitorial investigations can be in for both approval and criticism, at the Saturday luncheon of the National Republican Club of New York City. Two of the Arkansas Senators approved the right of the Senate to investigate its members but former Senator Thomas of that State saw a menace in the extremes, gone to in the cases of Senators Vare of Pennsylvania and Smith of Illinois.

The Southern oligarchist and the legal adviser to capital agreed in their opposition to Congressional investigations, although for different reasons. Representative Hamilton Fish, Jr., of New York, while approving the inquisitorial powers of Congress which the lower house has exercised less frequently, took occasion to defend the integrity of the members of both bodies. He condemned the "all too prevalent" criticism of Congress by the public and the press as wholly injustified. He declared that there was "no more honorable legislative body in the world." The powers of both houses of Congress to investigate their members, as well as other branches of the government, are to be considered good or bad, according to the use that is made of them. Rightly used they should curb corruption and correct injustice practiced by those in high places. Wrongly used they may inflict injury upon the innocent and deprive the people of their constitutional rights. Then Congress at times lacks the courage to carry out a righteous investigation to its logical conclusion, as in the case of the Ku Klux Klan. The powers of Congress to inquire and investigate should be exercised with courage and discretion PROGRESS IN PHILIPPINES A copy of the Philippines Herald, "pioneer Filipino daily in Enghsh," dated December 18, 1928, has come to The A office giving every evidence of the progress of Americanizing the Filipino. three column cut on the first page she two views of the Philippine Tr School students parade, with the stude in white suits and conical hats and standard of the Ironworkers Department A copy of the Philippines Herald, "the pioneer Filipino, daily in English," dated December 18, 1928, has come to The Age office giving every evidence of the progress of Americanizing the Filipino.

We learn that Mrs. Henry L. Stimson, "first lady of the land," will head the honorary patronesses of the children's fancy dress ball in the 1929 Manila carnival. The business meeting of the Philippine Islands Medical Association recommended the adoption of one national vernacular language in the islands as a means of fostering Filipino nationalism and as a distinct contribution to the development of Filipino medicine. In its editorial columns the Herald deprecated a contemplated general walkout of Manila cigar workers as an expression of sympathy for the conviction of a labor leader of Malabon. The provision of funds for the extension of the local drainage and sewage system is demanded as necessary for the health of the city. Fear of forgoing aggression is treated in another editorial, with the belief that, "just as Uncle Sam has heretofore played with us the role of a benefactor, it is to be expected that in the future he will act as our protection against the predatory ambitions of other nations, wheth- THE AGE READERS' FORUM Two Institutions Of Vital Worth To Race Editor or The New York Age. EDUARDO of the New York Age. We did the biking in the social moral and religious welfare of mankind in general, and of our own group in particular, I am asking for space in the columns of our splendid paper to say a few words concerning two institutions whose worth and work are of outstanding importance to the college of Colleges and vicinity. We refer to the St. Luke Episcopal Church and the Fairwood clome for Delinquent Girls. We were present recently at a party given at the rectory by Superintendent F. P. Paul and his teachers in the school and the Sunday school and their friends. This was a delightful occasion and greatly enjoyed by all who were fortunate enough to be there. There were games and amusements for the little folk, and before adjournment delicious ice cream and cake were needed, every one went away needed that it was good to have been there. St. Luke's Episcopal Church was organized in 1873. The Rev. B. Babbitt was its first rector, and until about two decades into its ministers were white men from the North. Among the colored clergy, many were African-American congregation in more recent years are the Reva, G. E. Howell, C. A. Harrison, R. N. Perry, C. C. Pollard and T. D. Brown. Just now the pulpit is vacant, and ministers of this persuasion would do well to investigate the opportunities conditions and claims of one hundred and fifty souls, and a centrally located church and rectory on Hampton street, only a little more than two blocks from Main, the society is well organized in all of its departments and presents an inviting parish capable of development. The church is self-supporting, divided that belongs to but few, colored Episcopal Churches in America. The annual congregational meeting was held January 13, and the ordinary for 1929 is as follows: F. Paul, senior warden; Cater E. Paul, junior warden; H. T. Marshall, junior warden; H. T. Howard, junior warden; Wm R. Veal, J. A. Nickelby and I. H. Goodwin, vestymen. Not only are the children and men thoroughly organized, but the ladies are functioning well under the leadership of the following workers: Women's Auxiliary, Mrs. J. James; Women's Mrs. Auxiliary; Hunt; Parish Guild, Mrs. E. Stephenson, Progressive Aid Club, Mrs. F. P. Paul. Sunday, January 13 was a red-letter day in the history of the Fairwair Home for Delphine girls. With a well-prepared and an elaborate presentation of a vast crowd that jammed overflowed the large $10,000 brick building, dedicatory exercises were held at 3 p.m. The dormitory was dedicated by Bishop K G Finley of the upper diocese of South Carolina, of Oxford and a brook humanitarian. The church has several areas, upon which the institution has been erected, is the gift of the bishop's friends. It is worthy of note that the architect, Prof. Whistler of State College, and the Assistant of Columbia, are both members of all the work from foundation stone to cappstone was done by workmen of the same race.

But I think it a ghastly shame that I am not able to find it in there and split the colored_love. This Prol. Davis honbailhell from Hampton ought to receive a fitting rebuke. He lays himself wide open to severe and cutting reply. It can be done. Some of the lawyer or watcher Robert Elliott said he would not do "smite him in his weakness." His tone and spirit in writing his letter are unnecessarily harsh, bitter and spiteful. Only a man turned traitor to his people could write such a critical qualifying for the Southern's reiteration of "good nigger." That man is not competent to instruct colored youths and ought to be ousted from his job. It is refreshing to see colored men once more to Congress. Your name has been mentioned hopefully.

Gift (From the Nashville Banner) It has been long since the Banner has carried a local news article of more, genuine significance than one of the many articles made to Fisk University by the wall of the late Prot James Dallas Burrus, a member of the first graduating class at Fisk, and the first Negro to receive a bachelor of arts degree south of the Mississippi-Daxon State. The bequests made to his alma mater by Dr. Burrus in reality marked the climax of a life devoted to the accumulation of material means for the set purpose of doing the best for his students, the benefit of his race. Dr. Burrus attended Dartmouth after his graduation from Fisk and distinguished himself in mathematics. After holding several responsible positions with credit to himself, he shanked his academic career and began to build a career. COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS ON THE SAYINGS OF OTHER EDITORS Some of the minor inconveniences of being colored, taken from a woman's point of view, were enumerated by Miss Name H. Burroughs in the *Christian Review* of Philadelphia. She said adding other things. It is inconvenient to be colored because two often Negroes have to walk a mile to get a meal. They do not serve them and that will not serve them because they are colored. Sometimes in this Christian land, Negroes cannot even get a drink of water in a public park. On many trains making all night rung there is not even a laboratory in which they can go to wash hands. They must sit up all night and are expected to turn out the next day, clean, rested and smiling. Sometimes white and colored Christians bound for the same interracial meeting take the same train. The whites have all the comforts they their colored brethren rule on the same train in dirty Jim Crow cars and empty stomachs. The inconvenience, embarrassment and discomfort from which Negroes suffer can hurt them. They must be treated just how much pleasure white people get out of punishing the Negro for not being white. If the Negro was given cut rates for inferior convenience he would be punished. He pays the same and gets less. He is being robbed by supposed Christians in a would-be Christian land. Such rank injustice on a national scale will make the Negro a red or a rebel. A mature nature rebels against organized racism. Some in racial organizations have getting the courage and enough sense of justice to refuse to inconvenience and embarrass their colored members by holding meetings in public places that bar people because of their race. May their tribe increase! That is a pretty strong but fairly accurate indictment of Christian civilization in many sections of this country. 一 In the course of an involved religious controversies appearing in the *Africo-American Presbyterian* of Charlotte, N. C. an Edisto Island correspondent injected this historical rite as to the origin of South Carolina dialect. I suppose Bro. Hector is quite unaware of the fact that the Atlantic coast of South Carolina—from Georgetown, through Berkeley, Charleston, County, and through Beaureport—were settled by the English whose slaves were principally from Barbados and British Guiana. Rev. Hector's home. This class of people were more adapted to Virginia and the New England States. This is South Carolina history and perhaps it may help Brother Hector to see that an "Edisto linger"—if there is such a "linger"—is only a fading remnant of what Brother Hector's ancestors brought to the coast of South Carolina in the days of the early development of this State in the institution of slavery as at white birth. But what difference does it make if we still citing to a remnant of Brother Hector's ancestors? and how much moral value or intellectual worth does it subtract from Rev. Hector, even though he be inclined to repudiate previous, unfavorable views of his proponents? If they had a lingo, it was one of their choice; and if they scattered it—and they did over the coast of South Carolina, and it is being used now to convey ideas versus "point of law," rest self-possessed that it is a lingo of our choice and with Edisto approval. This would go to explain much of the resemblance traced between the speech of the islanders of South Carolina and those of the British Warriors. Commenting on the recent annual distribution of the Harmon awards to twelve deserving members of the trace the Chicago bee said. Yet, aside from the intrusion name for the tokens of appreciation, there is still the greater honor and reward as is indicated by the wide publicity of the work, and the publicity given the wide range of spheres of endeavor of Negroes, the examples and inspiration given aspiring youth, and the heart interest of the protective churches in the problems of our group. The work of the teacher has seen its lack of ambition or of achievement in the respective fields of endeavor now made noteworthy and worthwhile by the encouragement of the Harmon Awards, but that those who powered or achieved these useful fields re-which he intended for the use of Fisk in the further education and improvement of the Negro race. How well he succeeded is tested to be the fact that he left property at $100,000 or more, all which is debted to the local institution. There will rise on the Fisk campus an apartment house for faculty members, and in addition to that will arise all other considerable improvements possible for Dr. Burrus lived and worked those most commendable ends. Take them and large, there has never been anything in the history of the depression this continent that should be encouraged, encouraged or occasioned at more pride than to life of Dr. Burrus. No one has his ambitions essentially worth, but he achieved them with intelligence, integrity and little if anything more that any hope he had to have said of him after he leaves this world Dr. Burrus likewise realized that there is ultimate hope only for those who help themselves, and he has given his people a vital aid and a construction of how he will aid and support for them this day and time. Saturday. February 2, 1929. received no thanks, no honors, no acclaims. What has heretofore been a thankless task, and those real and budding, gentle, formerly born to bliss and honor" had wilted their day in the public eye and consciousness, but remains in the memories of the public as real contributors to the advancement of our present civilization and as practical and active allies in the solution of the problems affecting their special problems. This is a phase of such public recognition as is afforded by the Harmon and other awards, which should be carefully considered in appraising their value. Referring to the, inauguration of Governor Cooper at Columbus, who is styled "Ohio's color line governor," the Cleveland Gazette said The "Colored man and brother" was very properly conspicuous because of his absence. There were even very few "jim Crow Negroes in attendance; the other members of this is as it should be! Of all the appointments Cooper has made to date, not one of his "jim crow" supporters has been designated for anything, as far as we have been able to learn, and about what the trouble he had been filled up with. During the campaign we expressed our earnest and honest belief that Mr. Cooper was a Kluxer because of the color-line activities in his real estate business in Glenview for so very many years. His sudden happen to change this belief in the slightest but much to confirm that belief. It was this, and this alone that caused The Gazette to oppose his nomination and election more than two years ago, to again be the editor of this newspaper, last October, when he visited the editor at our office, for four two hours, in a vain effort to win the support of "The Old Reliable Two years hence, Gov. Myers, Republican landlord at election time to carry him into office, but will face a defeat such as was administered to him, two years ago. We gather from this, that the fact of Governor Cooper's election has not changed Editor Smith's opinions in the least. Emphasizing the dangers of a modern city, due to congested traffic and modern inventions, the Cincinnati Union said. Every man who now begins his day with a realization of the dangers he faces, yet bravely move onward, is a hero. Even in his slumbers escaping gas or crossed electrical wires may wait its soul to be released, but his realization of the Marine begins when he hears the limits of his abode. Then he enters his machine, the street car, or walks upon the streets. If unconscious of the dangers he faces he is a Morm, and therefore partly immune for God watches over food and children. But if conscious of the dangers he faces, he cape slaughter and return at night to his virtuous couch, unscabbled, then he should kneel in gratitude to Jehovah, render thanks for his preservation, and send forth an humble petition for further exercise of divine clementy. Negro, his dangers are doubled, the K K K still and the jurisdiction of Judge Lover is everywhere. There is food for reflection in the last paragraph, which should cause the prudent to walk wardly in the medst of dangers, thereby building up the qualities of fortitude and durance In seeking the underlying cause of the decline of lynching in the South during 1928, the Norwegian Journal and Guide said The movement to prevent incarring and to outlaw mob violence in the South undoubtedly received the greatest impetus last war for emancipation of the Virginia people the governor of the State powers consent with those exercised by local authorities to apprehend and prosecute persons participating in a lynching. The mere passage by a Northern State of a law of the character put the mob element on notice only in Virginia, but elsewhere, as in many unattainable places, the scales of public sentiment are at balanced against lynching. No matter how sincere the personal opposition to lynching, Governor and the members of General Assembly may not be easily difficult, it not only goes against the purpose of its absence, its passage is supported by powerful public sentiment in proposing this measure. Governor Bradley the unqualified senator of the Northeast Virginia district referred to as the most intelligent newspaper in the State, felt such a measure was the best fit for the Vice President, the salutary remedy and was public sentiment for it and once the measure was advocated in the strongest manner possible, its adoption. The necessity of the measure, the great support, segment, the rare healthy and vigorous health against the form of lynching, the justly attributed group of newspapers and the business and social life of the State, of which group the V. succinct leader. It is really after years of valuation and by fighting the crime of after continuous and strict to sow the seeds of interracial good will, that newspaper ground forts be successfully enacted of a State and lynching law.

St. Martin's Chapel bring one's best self" was the man thought emphasized by the Rev John H. Johnson last Sunday, mingling at St Martin's Chapel, 122nd street and Lenox avenue in a sermon based on the great Marile performed by Christ in restoring the sight of the Blind Bastime, the text being the verse 10 of the Gospel according to St. Mark. "If we are willing to investigate thoroughly the real beauty of miracles, and Rev. Johnson, "then we will be able to appreciate them for fullness greatness and power." Further, we learned from the story that Christ was his host on that occasion. The Saviour was on His way to Jerusalem to be tried by the high priests. He was discouraged. His journey had been in impaired. He was much besought by the Saviour. He found time to grant this common begarer's plea for the restoration of sight with the words: "Go thy way, the faith hath made thee whole." In applying this lesson to our lives, Mr. Johnson asked first: "Why are we in the church? Because we want to be our best selves. Like Chesterfield admires to us the yourself but not our worst self?" "Secondly: 'When are we our best selves? When we are discouraged and depressed. Discouragement is the other side of courage. Again, when we are interrupted or as ousted suddenly, If at such times we are so snowing our best sides, we are snowing our best sides, finally 'How can we be our best selves? By giving ourselves to a great cause, religion is a great cause and consolation to such will develop the best in our nature. Also by loving strongly enough to make supreme sacraments and most important to listening to the plea of the Lord and despised. Fourth: Why should we be our best selves Because in giving the best we receive the best 'Give in the world the best you have and the best will come back to you.' And because God loves us in all of our weaknesses and failures. Flowers for the altar were contributed by Miss Ivaline II B Board in memory of her grandmother Mrs Aurele Williams and Mrs Emily Board.

Theoke of how Christ indulged hall, and told stick with Him jennied Him. How Christ with a mind to see and a heart to feel, turned and looked at Peter. That look of love, pity and power,standing,救 Peter. The power lifts man from a life of degraded back to family life, citizenship and respectability in the community.

Dr. Garner did not take any particular text but confined his sermon to the God we choose.

The choir was out fit full force and sang the two anthems with their usual fine interpretation. At the close of the service, Carmen of Vasco Vincent and Mrs. Lallian D. P.

He was indeed in inspiring and careful message, going to be remembered by the audience that filled the house-to its capacity. Everyone is invited to the Refuge Church of Christ of the Apostolic Faith, 54-56 West 133rd street. 2nd 7th Day Adv. Church "In order to please God, the man who believes in God is required to address God as the Allwise Father of the human race. So declared Pastor Strahan inst Sabah morning in the 11 o'clock service. The pastor's theme was entitled, "The Fatherhood of God." The message of the hour was based upon the text of Scripture found in 1st Corinthians 8.0, which reads, "But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things." Continuing, the speaker said: "It is not sufficient to believe that this world; a person might believe that truth and at the same time be a murderer. The Mohammedan, in the midst of all his depravity, believes in the existence of One Holy God. But the essential and fundamental thing that must be added to our belief is the Fatherhood idea of God is necessary that we build God into our life for the existence of all creatures living in the universe. "The Bible represents the universe as having in it but one family-only one, and that family is described in Holy Writ as the Family of God, Men, angels, and inhabitants of unfallen worlds constitute one family in His Wisdom, God, the Father in His Wisdom, Grace, Power and Will, is represented as the One Being Who brought us all upon the stage of action. "The ancient patriarchs of the Bible believed that the Lord of Heaven was the Father of all men on earth, and they gave to Him all the ideas that God had given them. That name was "Jehovah," meaning the self-existing one who gave being to all living creatures. The ancient Hebrew felt that this name was so worthy and so holy, that they called substitute titles to avoid repeating it too freely or too commonly. Just think of it, brethren! The title, "Jehovah," so called, the provision must be made escape the possibility of dishonor. "The Latham idea of God is a fundamental idea. It is the keystone to all other divine ideas. And if it be taken out of the ways, every other notion and conception of God is lost. The Father, God of food and the brotherhood, must till the greatest measure of need in the world today. We can save it for now, realize any gratitude of moral rectitude and justice until men everywhere embody their ideas. Our Cavan looked upon the father of their race martyrs. There as a splendid outpost, Narsa's idea in the writings of prophets. But while this appears most beautiful, it is narrow and selfish. This arrangement San out all other peoples and the technology that was the Israelites required to count Him as the Universal Father. "The New Testament apostles gave the fatherhood idea a right place. San out laid but a foundation on his faith. And Saint John knew the idea around the patience love of the Infinite. But it is in the utterances of Christ that the idea radiates into every direction Jesus invariably referred to the Saints Being as the Father Forty times He uses the expression, Father while only four times does He say God. How significant is the fact, "In this connection there are but two positions that men may take in the face of the creatures abhorned by the victims of cruel heartless fate. The other position that they are the children of Heavenly Father. Our peace in the world and our salvation in the next depicted upon which we can be saved to the other that we are the children, children, then we must reckon ourselves as being under His constant love and care. He alone can save or die us. Troubles and trials must be endured as our characters, and should can be overcome as what He is in wisdom allows. Fourth Moravian Church Praise to Jesus springs from most and only lips. The doubter exclaims "Rabbit Thou art the Son of God, Thou art the King of Israel" It is the highest, courageous man who frankly reverses his opinion when investigation proves him to the wrong. He is even louder in his praise than in his former deprivation. He underscores to make amends. He is not a puffing lion who is patiently doing your task, an unlaughter and a trouble coupled with reliance on God. He is not mustaches daunt you by being it. He is compound in praise to courage. Wait, it is a good motto. If you can keep your head when all about you Art insures theirs and blaming it it shows all their A Nice Three-Story Brick Building with all improvements for Students Course completed in Four Weeks Diplomas Given THE material contrast between the structures with which (Booker T.

But satisfactory and encouraging is this, it is but an imperfect measure of Dr. Washington's work and achievement. The edu- ration and annual turning out of three hundred young men and women for lives useful to themselves and their families is of course a most commendable and helpful work, but that is not the only reason for its popularity.

Mr. Jawis will program in the afternoon. On Thursday in January 31, come and meet friends old and new. Mrs. A. Reilly will entertain us. Emmanuel A. M. E. Church The services held at Emanuel Church on last Sunday were most enthusiastic, both spiritually and financially. There was a large congregation that greeted the pastor, Rev. D. W. Nichols, who entered the church with Holly Spirit. He preached a wonderful sermon and at the time of the invitation, which is the usual custom, there came about instead a real revival, meeting at which time six persons connected with the church. The evening services was unusually largely attended als). The Rev. Nichols began his series of sermons on Religions, the first being Hinduism, which was treated most intelligently. All are invited to hear these series of sermons which are being discussed by the pastor every Sunday event. The offering for the day was $273.75. Union Baptist Church Tuesday evening, Prof. Fields and a chorus of forty voices presented a cantata, which was enjoyed by all who attended. We are looking forward to April 9, when Prof. Fields and his singers will continue again. Our Sunday school was well attended. At 11 a.m. we listened to a wonderful sermon by our pastor on the subject, "Self Determination." Pastor Sims left the service early to get a train for Newburgh, N. Y. where he preached the funeral of Dr. E. N. McDaniels. The Missionary Circle had an interesting meeting. The sermon was delivered by Rev. Rewina, the closing message for the day was delivered by Rev. Robert Hooper. This was an inspiring sermon. Offering amounted to $299.82 Williams Institutional C. M. E. Church The Rev. William - Yancy Bell, former pastor, was in the city last week as the guest of our pastor. His coming was a surprise to us all. Rev. Bryson persuaded him to remain over, and preach Sunday morning. He was greeted by a large audience. Sunday, Rev. Bryson will preach at 11 a.m. It has been more than a month now since he filled his pulpit at the morning hour, being honored during this period with some of the most outstanding men of the connection. He will have a mrs. sage hearing on Visitation Evangelism us in our church at Harlem are entering into such campaign and Williams Institutional Church is cooperating. At night Lord's Supper will be observed with Dr. Bryson as the celebrant. The unqueenness of this event will be a former pastor, and ably-continued by Dr. Bryson, has attracted large audiences. We therefore request all persons attending to come early in order to secure good seats. All persons attending. Special music for our large choir with Prof. Calhoun as conductor. Fleet St. Memorial A. M. E. Church "Gifts and Graces," the theme of the sermon delivered by the pastor, Rev W C Brown on Sunday morning, presented mainly the fact that God has given to every man a gift. Greatly admired was the man who has paused long enough early in life to find the work, gone forward with a strong determination, overcoming the many obstacles to develop his gift and has succeeded "Graces," the sermon that will seek the love of the Saviour. Certainly this sermon was enough to inspire man to rise above petty aims and purposes to those nohler enterprises which can claim and hold our own heart's approval. The sermon was welcomed to the Sunday school at the regular hour by the superm THE susan, F. At Ruth. The Christian, Christian, were, as usual, interested. At eight o'clock, a service in honor of the lady was enjoyed by the large, included in the program. Women of the Church, Y. Mr., Young of St. Church, New York City, oral of the talented this church choir. During the week, funerals are omnivorous at the Mahew and Mrs. Rebecca were held. Sunday, February 3, a celebration will be held church at 3 p. m. Concord Baptist Church Thought of Miss Ruth Occupan our missionary at the hospital Liberia, seems to be ever present in the minds of many people of the church. This week one Sunday school class purchased some minimaum for the kitchen of a carving school of the Dr. East; secretary of the National Board. It is expected that the large box containing the Christmas gifts from the children will sail this week for Africa. There is a fellowship between Concord and churches of the other group in Brooklyn that is good to see. This week the Concord Trust furnished the American Negro program at an International Night at the Immaculate House, where music and dialogue in the languages of many nations made up the entertainment for the evening. Arrangements have been made for Mrs. Isabelle Spiller, teacher of instrumental music in the public schools, to teach a group of 20 boys with the hope of forming a bugle and drum corps Tuesday, this week Down through the lanes of the church pews echo the teaching of the pulpit, providing that teaching is vital, true to Scripture and fascinating. It seems that, regardless of the pointendness and a sometimes stern denunciation in New York, New Jersey, it does there is a fascination in the straightforwardness of the thrusts and the truth of the teaching. Sunday morning he spoke seriously on the decaying church and the reasons for its non-effectiveness, saying that when a church begs of either youth or age, he us what you want or age how you want it already in the throes of decay. That when a church membership gets wrapped in lodges, to the extent that its Christians are willing to follow the leadership of a non-Christian in matters of religion and things bearing on life and death, that church is doomed to the spirit of searching must be that of searching through the channels of prayer and study of the Word, to find God, expecting to receive from that source divine blessing. Berean Baptist Church "As for me and my house we will serve the Lord," was the theme of the sermon preached by Rev. Lomax, acting pastor, in absence of Rev. S. I. Eldridge, who is leading services in Kansas. He was taken from Joshua 24:22. He said that whosoever others may do it is all true but "as for me and my house we serve the Lord." He also reminded the audience that we can not hide and make the world think that we are serving the Lord because man looks on the outside but God looks on the heart of seeing the Lord first by devotional study of his word, second through experience in Christ Six joined church The subject of Rev. Lomax's discourse Sunday evening was "Feed my Sleep." He spoke by the way the Lord will provide for his children if they will only trust God who was provided all departments were crowded. The lesson was made interesting by our teachers. ] The B B P H is progressing rapidly and the tone is "How can we serve the world through our Church Activities?

JULES BLEDSOE IN EPOCHAL MUSICAL EVENT, SINGING AT GALLO THEATRE Those present at Gallo Theatre, 54th street, West of Broadway, on Sunday evening, January 27, for the recital by Jules Bledsoe, baritone, were participants in an epocalyptic event. It marked the first occasion in New York City, according to such records as are available to this reviewer, when a Negro singer has portrayed, in costume, with lighting effects and support of the Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra, a character from grand opera, with a singer of the other race enacting the supporting role. On this occasion, Mr. Bledsoe's manager, Robert Karr, departed from the conventional recital procedure by arranging and staging a part of the third act from Verdi's opera, "Aida"—that section where "Aida" secretly bids the coming of her lover, the Egyptian captain, "Rhadanes," is surprised by her father the Ethiopian king, "Amonasro" (like herself, a captive of the Egyptians), after which follows the intensely dramatic scene in which "Amonasro" plays upon "Aida" love for father and country to the end that she might induce "Rhadanes" to impart information as to route to be taken by the Egyptian army in an impending march, that the Ethiopian army might lay in ambush and overwhelm its conquering oppressor. The role of "Aida" was sung by Lisa Roma, soprano, and members of the New York Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra, Hans Lange, assistant conductor, directing, played the opera music. The scene and due, "Cicil' into padre," gave full scope to the dramatic and vocal powers of both singers. Miss Roma displayed a voice of pleasing character and timbre, and she sang and acted with a comprehension of dramatic values. But it was the work of Mr. Bledsoe that was of distinct interest, and it is gratifying to be able to record the fact that he gave a performance that was capable, both in acting and in singing. He ran the gamut—now the beseaching father, anxious to have his daughter aid in restoring the glory of his kingdom, then the angry and scornful parent, repulsing the pleasing child when she realizes the thing he would have her do. Then, as love for father and country rises ascendant in her breast, and "Aida" agonizingly consents to the betrayal of her lover, the exultant king, visualizes restoration to power through the love of "Rhadames." Egyptian commander, for "Aida," Ethiopian slave, and "Amasonas'." daughter Vocally, Bledsoe left something to be desired. The natural robustness of his vocal equipment at times robbed his voice of the requisite tenderness for a pleading tone, but this was made up for to some extent for a well-developed pianissimo, which acquirement, by the way, was much in evidence throughout the formal concert numbers. Physically, the singer's stage presence was well suited to the role, and he strode with king-like dignity through the scene. His voice has greatly improved since he heard him last, and he has added grace and competency to his stage equipment. But he ought to take lessons in stage deportment, particularly with reference to the manner of acknowledging the appreciation of his audience. It is quite probable, of course, that his extended experience as one of the stars of Florenz Ziegfeld's "Show Boat" (the is now in his second year) has contributed largely towards this musication, and it would be strange were this not true. But a formal recital is a more dignified performance than is that of a musical revue, and should not have even a shadow of vaudevillian posing. His songs, in "Show Boat" if the song, "Old Man River," is one of the features of that production and this was evidenced Sunday evening at end of the announced program, when, in response to the insistent demand of the audience, the singer gave several encores, and there was a loud and demandable cry for that song. The demand was gracefully denied, however. Mr Bledso opened the evening program with a group of crosses on the Handel aria, "Turn me, O Queen, thy fare away from thither Ginbo Caenal "Amarillis ina bella," and the Mozart aria "Non pu andrae." This group was followed with German numbers by Schubert including the heder, "Du bist de ruth," Wer nie Sem Boot" and "Nacht and Traume," and the son of the lonesome tower, Dei Wanderer. As an encore to the latter group, Mr Bledso gave a delibert rendition of Duante's "Danza (anculla) The next offering was a group of pairs numbers by Manuel Bay, a Russian pianist who served most acceptably as accompanist for the singer. Mr Bay played the Prelude in G Sharp Minor by Rachmannoff, a March from the opera, "Love of Three Oranges," by Prokofieff, and two Sarauben numbers, Lude, Op 8 and Lude, Op 27. He displayed ample technique and a colorful temperament. Then followed the operatic excerpt after which game an announcement from the manager, Mr Kerr, that the programmed rendition of "The Creation," based on the poem by James Weldon Johnson, and set to music by Louis Gruenberg, which was to have been sung by Mr Bledso, accompanied by members of the New York Philharmonie (O. Chester, with the composer conducting, would have to be deterred The explanation was given that Mr. Grunenberg, returning from Europe to be present and conduct his composition on this occasion, was a passenger on the liner "America," which was delivered to passage by the heroic rescue of thirty Italian sailors from the ill-fated "Lirada" in mid-Atlantic, did not reach New York in time for the necessary rehearsing with singer and the trainee. The presence was given, however, that at an early date Mr. Bledsoe would sing the number, and, in addition, would sing the entire third act from "Vada" Mr. Grunenberg, who was present, was introduced to the audience, as was Mr. Johnson, writer of the poem, and both were given options by the audience. The final group sung by Mr. Bledsoe was four Spirituals, three credited to Clarence Cameron in White—"Jesus sittet' on de water side" "Don't you let nobod youn you around" and "Wake up, Jacobl" and "Hirouze" arranged by Mr. Bledsoe. But the audience would not defiant until the singer I not given the "Volga Beat Song," the Negro work song, "Water Day," and other. It was a distinguished audience which heard the Negro harpone, including members of European royalty as well as distinguished florists in literature, the professors, and society of both races. REG'LAK FELLEKS IN THE REALM OF MUSIC By LUCIEN H. WHITE JULES BLEDSOE IN EPOCH EVENT, SINGING A Those present at Gallo Theatre, on Sunday evening, January 27, for the tone, were participants in an epoch occasion in New York City, according to this reviewer, when a Negro sing with lighting effects and support of the chestra, a character from grand opera, enacting the supporting role.

S. 136 AS BAND PLAYS WITH UNUSUAL MERIT On the occasion of the third free Sunday afternoon concert by the Monarch Band, under direction of Lieut. Fred W. Simpson, on November 25, last, the opinion was expressed in this column that the people of Harlem were not showing proper appreciation of the splendid musical offerings of this organization, and that attendance at these concerts should be largely augmented. Baton Sunday, January 27, the fifth recital presented a different aspect Dr. Lawrence J. Davenport, the accomplished and erudite master of ceremonies, hit the nail on the head when he said that the people had taken his sermon text away from him by not only coming out in large numbers, nearly to the capacity of the auditorium of Junior High School 136, at 135th street and Edgecombe avenue, but by coming out at an early hour. Those who have been attending these concerts have discovered that the Monarch Band's "3 o'clock" means just what it says, by Eastern Standard Time, as shown by the U. S. Naval Observatory. Dr Davenport had occasion to emphasize this fact when, at the time appointed, the speaker of the afternoon, the Rev. Dr. William P. Haves pastor of Mt. Olivet Baptist Church, had not put in his appearance. An extra number was added to the program by Lieut. Simpson at request of the master of ceremonies, and then, as the minister had not come, the regular program was proceeded with. Jut Dr. Haves came in as the next number was being played, and gave a splendid tribute to the work of Monarch Lodge of Elks in its $1,000,000 building program of apartment buildings and a massive temple, and to the work of the band in bringing a high order of music rendition to the people without it. The program for this fifth recital was of unusual interest, since it was partly a "Request Program." At the December concert, printed sheets bearing names of ten standard Overtures, with blank lines for indicating a choice, were distributed to the audience, with a request that the particular Overture which the auditor wanted to hear be marked with a cross. The Rssiin Overture to his opera, "William Tell," received the largest number of votes, with the popular "Poet and Peasant" Overture to Suppe a close second. So Lecut, Simpson compromised by playing both numbers, and the were played as only Monarch Band, under Simpson's baton, caned with a cross. The Rossini Overture to his opera, "William Tell," Overture, and perhaps no other number the band has played was given such an enthusiastic reception. At its conclusion, the master of ceremonies, before announcing the encore number, complimented the principal ilautist, Davis, and called him to his feet to acknowledge the plaudits of the audience in response to his fine playing of the dimultiple flute score. Then the band repeated the opening number, The New Madison Square Garden March" by King. The other added number played while waiting for the speaker was a thrilling Mexican serenade, "Estrallita," by Ponce. Following the Salutation, "The Star Spangled Banner," the band played the King march, and then came the first request number, the Poet and Peasant Overture, which had a masterly rendition. The danty little "Humoreske" by Dvorak, and the pompous "Anvil Chorus" from Verdí's "H Trovatore" were given as a double number, a delightful contrast. Then Elgar's "Pomp and Circumstance" Military March, No. I was played. A Spanish Capricho Carectestico, "Morama," by Lepinosa, was enjoyed, and then Dr. Hayes was introduced. After Dr. Hayes had concluded, the "William Tell" Overture was played, and then Alderman Fred R. Moore treasurer of the Publicity Committee, was introduced and made an appeal to the people for financial support of the free summer evening park concerts to be played by the Monarch Band under auspices of the city's Department of Parks and Parkways. Contributions in response to this appeal are listed below. The concluding numbers played by the band were a Russian song, "The Volga Boatman," and the descriptive number "A Hunting Stage," in Borabssi. The bandmen had to stand and acknowledge the treasure paid to this last number, and then the audience stood with the band as the strains of "Auld Lang Syne" were heard. There will be four more of these free Sunday afternoon concerts by Monarch Band at Junior High School 136, 135th street and Lakeomb Avenue, to be given on the last Sunday afternoons in each month through May—February 24, March 31, April 28 and May 20. On each of these occasions, opportunity will be given the people to show appreciation of the public spirit and community interest exhibited by Monarch Band by subscribing to the fund which will enable the summer park concert to be played by a sufficiently large group of musicians to give desired results. It might be noted, in this connection, that Monarch Band itself unusually attaches the expenses attached to the Sunday afternoon concert to asking no aid from any sources.

No card was sent Mr. Canavan asking him for his comment on this column. But voluntarily Mr. Canavan sent in his letter which reads as follows Dear Sir and Brother I received a copy of The New York Age yesterday, and in looking through it, noticed a column edited by yourself, regarding the New York Musician, which I read with much interest. I heartily endorse your good work through the medium of The Age, and in reaching our colored members I think it will act as a great educational service to them. I want to congratulate you and also Sergen-at-arms Minton upon the wonderful work you both are doing I fraternally yours, EDWARD CANAVAN Chairman, Local 802, A. F. of M Mr. Canavan's letter is very highly appreciated for various reasons, and this writer begs to tender him sincere thanks for his treatment, action, and his conception of the church and hopes that he may be long spared to spear over the destiny of Local 802 and this continue to give 'our colored members' his usual fair, square and impartial justice. It may be noted that Mr. Canavan took the opportunity to pay tribute to the excellent record of Sgt. at-armes Minton The letter published below is the second received in an answer to the questions addressed to a group or musicians. The writer, Mr. Deason Johnson is an expressman of the Clof Club, having succeeded the late James Reese Europe in that post. The "Pioneer" has a mantra for records and data, has a vast experience in the music business from its every angle, and is known practically from all to coast. My dear Business Associate. This is our acknowledgment of your card requesting u to state briefly (about 100 words) our opinion of the column, "ACTIVITIES OF UNION MUSICIANS," as appointed. We derive much benefit and more satisfaction from the column question than perhaps any subpoena, but it can be used as a recordkeeper if it is so publicly needed for success it is printed facts for a service which has the world as its field of operative. this column will help more than many readers at this time can understand, and we like it so much that you can count on our support as we continue to GROW AS WE SERVE ENTERTAINERS AND MUSICIANS EVERYWHERE. Very many thanks for your for- ward opinion of the column. Succ- e to your ideals. Of course, though my investment nonexistant, as business asso- crite, I will be at your office shortly to get my dividend of the partners business! I will you know that local 802 will cash your checks? Well be sure to符 with a little bit- terties attached. Five musicians working in Newark, at the Rosie land Dance Hall, were given checks by the management on their first night of service. The checks, averaging about $50 each, were waived at the Local, but they rebounded. The five men were notified and advised that they would have to refund the money to the Local, and then the Union will take steps to collect the money from the signer. So far, two musicians have refunded the money to the Local. When the other three have paid, there is little doubt the Union will recover the total amount, even if they have to go to the extreme, and place Rescand Dance hall on the unfair list, prohibiting Union musicians from playing there until the debt is paid. In Manning, comedian, is still on the unfair list and cannot contract with Union musicians.

Sergeant-at-Arns Minton's investigation, discovered that Charles Matson, a member in good standing, had contracted with six musicians and twelve performers, for an act to be taken to Cuba, and that Sam was hired by Matson as the comedian of the show. Wonder what happened to Hugh Davis. Has he moved and failed to notify the Local or is it a matter of indifference? Geo. Payne, drummer, filed a claim at the local for $18 for subbing Hugh. On the second summons, and hearing, George was given judgment for the full amount, payable on January 28. Davis failed to put in his appearance both times. Members are supposed to notify change of address immediately and are liable to discipline for failure to attend when summoned. Davis closed at the Lafayette Sunday, January 27. Charlie Thorpe, big, hale and hearty, will be missed in Harlem. Charlie died on January 22, and was buried Saturday, January 26. He was a member of Local 802; president of his own musical organization, the E-Flat Club; a voluntary World War veteran, serving as handman with Will Vodery, leader of the 807th Pioneer Infantry; a member of several trafrena loiorganizations in many of the pastor, Dr. Edward Ernest Tyler, the filipat the pulpit at the morning hour. His text was St. Matthew 24:36. Dr. Tyler vividly outlined the origin of the text telling how Christ foretold the destruction of the temple, and of the signs of His coming to judgment. Dr Tyler told of how the disciples wanted to know the time that this would occur. He stated that if would not do for us to know when our end is near, for if we did many would do little in this life. Since none knows the time of their end he behaves us to let life, so grip us in the way we live and make that we can to make the world a better place to live in. Loving mercy, do justice to all men, and walk humbly before God. He closed with the thought that it will be a sad thing when we go into eternity, and will have remorse for having done nothing worthwhile in this life and have not reverenced God in this life. He said the thing for us to do is to not only reverence God but reverence personality, for that is a part of God; live close to God and make saints of those that deserve it. when the invitation was extended.

Siloam Presbyterian Church The urge of personal evangelism was clearly brought out in the morning hour of worship at Silam by Dr. George Shuppen Stark, pastor. In this discourse the pastor taking the text from 2 Kings 4, beginning with the 22nd verse said that when we have donour best test before God and if there appears to be no life today, to hope on that God may bless the staff and life and come tomorrow. Because of our failures we should not blame God but blame ourselves. We so often hear today that the Bible is not inspired, that the Church has lost its power, prayer has lost its power. All this is because we do not read the Bible with broken heart, therefore it is meaningless to us, the Church has its power and means nothing unless we put ourselves into the Church. The virtue depends upon the open heart we bring. One cannot send another to do his work or perform his duty. The baptism of the spirit with the spoken word as one goes. Seek to go in the name of Jesus Christ. The Bible school meet in session at 11:55 p.m. Next Sunday brief outlines by pupils of the young men's class will be given on helpful lessons derived from the study of the previous quarter's work Girls of the intermediate department will give five things to do and five things not to do to make helpful and useful women in the community.

Sunnyside. He will be in teamwork. TEAMWORK IN THE P. T. DISTRICT Not so long ago I met two employees of the Pullman service with whom I was impressed somewhat out of the ordinary. They represented two different, but closely allied departments of the service. Incidentally they were Negroes, but that had nothing to do with the indentation. What really impressed me with these men was the study each had made of the work of the department he represented. The men were G. W. Kirk, porter-instrument in the Penn. Terminal district, and W. K. Banks, assistant in the Pullman Employment Bureau of the Philadelphia Zone, which includes the P. T., the Washington and the Philadelphia districts. It was during casual conversation on different phases of the Pullman employment situation that I got my impression of these men. From their expressions it was palpable that each man believed that coordination and cooperation between their departments were essential to efficiency of the service, and to that end each was working. For example, I gleaned that when Mr. Banks' department sent a newly employed porter to a district, his interest in that porter didn't cease there. He kept in touch with the porter to find out how he fitted in to the service. For this information, it seems, he relied to a certain extent upon the help of the porter instructors in the district, who, in turn are able to furnish this knowledge by keeping the porter's concern under surveillance during his probation period. In this way teamwork between the employment end and the instruction end of the service is maintained, which reacts to the benefit of all concerned. Next to system, cooperation is the most important cog in the Pullman service wheel. Unlike system, which is an established cog, cooperation has to be maintained. It is for this reason, more, perhaps, than any other, that the Pullman service employee is constantly and insistently impressed with the importance of cooperating in his work. In some districts this cooperating is stressed more than in others; that is, it is more observable. It was to find out how they cooperated in the P. T. District—for as I said I was impressed with one of its employees—that I made a visit to the district office and yard departments recently. The first call was at the office of the district's head, Mr. R. V. Watson in the Pennsylvania Railroad Station. Through the kindness of Welfare Worker Sample, I was introduced to Mr. Watson, whose first remark was, "You haven't a very good opinion of our district." I assured him or tried to, anyway, that I had a high opinion of the Penn Terminal district; and that I was endeavoring now to have that estimation verified, if he would give me the permission. Before gooing farther, just a sketch of the man who plowed his way upward in the Pullman service field, from sign-out man to his present estate. In appearance, he strikes you as being a man that is neither unreasonably hard nor faulty soft in his dealings with his men; in fact, he impressed me as being, like the average Pullman superintendent—middling in disposition. The day I saw him he was perfectly groomed, which is invariably an indication of evenness. It was clearly to be observed that Mr. Watson is one of those superintendents who believes that he has the best personnel of conductors and porters in the Pullman service; and for teamwork his district is incompatible. Every superintendent thinks the same thing, so this egotism didn't surprise me. Moreover, there is always a certain admiration for the cock that crowds loudest in his own barnyard. However, like most superintendents, he deplored the passing of the old type of porter. After getting Mr. Watson's permission, Mr. Sample took me out to Sunyside Yards; and let it be said just here: Those colored organizations which do not include Negro employees of the Pullman service, who hold technical and clerical positions, in their periodic labor surveys are not presenting correct nor conclusive information regarding Negro progress in these fields. At the Sunyside Yards, the Negro gets a chance to show what he can do. In every one of the different Pullman departments at these yards there is with one exception, from one to two Negroes employed in a clerical capacity. In the yard department, which is one of the important departments in a Pullman local plant, for it is this department that has charge of all the repairing and cleaning of cars that enter its district, are two Negro electricians and one Negro carpenter, Charlie Swan. Swan has been working for many years as carpenter for the company, even before the yards were removed from Jersey City. The two electricians are Jean Lason and Egbert Blenen, both being rated as competent mechanics. Also employed in this department is George Hammand, a young man, whose father was a porter. Hammand is time seek for all the Pullman yard employees. The equipment department has a Negro clerk, A. Debounce, as has the necessary department, in the person of J. B. Dabney. To each of these departments Mr. Sample, who by the way, appears to merit the respect and good will of all the bosses, took me so I could see how they cooperated in the Penn. Terminal territory. The departments mentioned are all located on the first floor of the sunnyside Yards Building. Leaving this floor we made our way to the department which is used exclusively for and by the porters. In this way we stopped at the office of P. T. safety-first man, Mr. G. Morris. I am not familiar with the technical way of arriving at the percentage of a district in the Safety-first curriculum, but so-called was Mr. Morris in relating the averages of his district for the position month that he didn't pay any attention to my ignorance. I arrived to grasp, however, that the P. T. District's showing was appropriate to that of the other eastern districts. He attributed this, on request, the teamwork of the P. T. district. Finally I was taken to the department of Mr. Crawford and the porters. Mr. Crawford will be remembered no doubt as the Fullman official who it was alleged, used the terms "darkies" and "shiner" in speaking with a labor reporter last fall. Well, I confess, I was rather reported in this man. I expected to find a smug, conceited-looking official. Instead I found myself grasping the hand of a big, sorrel-woman whose terms of description might run to anything, but they never be uttered maliciously. Tutt, tutt! Those of you who were needed to take umbrage at this official, and thought he had insulted the race-against it. must think of this man, think of the number of Negroes that are employed as clerks in his department. Aside from P. A. Sample, we are man, J. T Reid and G. W. Kirk, porter-instructors, there are three men holding clerical positions in his department. These are H. W. Stallings, head signout man, and his assistant, C. A. Gorman. The other man is R. A. Ingraham whose title is clerical man. Ingraham is practically assistant to Mr. Crawford, for he is night the duties that Mr. Crawford performs during the day from the number enumerated, and this excludes the welfare porter instructors, Sunnyside has six Negro clerks and three mechanics on its payroll. This substantiates the statement, made by colored defenders of the company, that the Pullman free from prejudice and would give more clerical positions if enough were found competent to do such work. In one welfare man told me that his superintendent had a devil trying to get a man from among the porters to take the porter in one of the district's departments. Those men who are to fill the job would not consider it; they prefer to re-obtain be suggested to the superintendent of that district that he wishes to make an appointment from among his and finds a difficult matter, send the appointee he has in Sunnyside. He will not only get inspiration, but he will soon in term work. Ashland Place Y. W. C. A. Ashland Place Y. W. C. A.

Simple in fashion, as well as in fabric, is the aim of every mother when dressing her tiny toot if she wishes to afford freedom and comfort. Of course, little miss two to six is quite unconscious of the whims of Fashion, but it is most essential to instill good taste at an early age. Dumpled arms and legs with a charm all their own, must not be hampered by unnecessary trimming, so mini dresses have become plam and smart. From the neckline to the term of a child's garment, there isn't much room for adornment, and so the fabric becomes the first consideration. For best dresses, when one isn't sliding down balustrades or making mud pies, there are exquisite materials from which to choose. Organdies, crepe de chines, voiles, georgettes and swiss are dainty and delectable in colorings. Any of the models sketched today will fashion beautifully of these fabrics. For the more sturdy type of frocks for really hard work at play and in the kindergarten, one turns to the cottont. For wearability and washability, one must select gambas, percales, linens and dumplies. This year the woolers are delightful jersey challis and wool creepers under the top coat, and lovely for the first days of Spring. Many up-to-date frocks are coys from grown-up styles, and are made of the most adorable prints. These printed silks and cottonts are delightfully quaint and fresh in color and design. Surely Noah's ilk never housed such orange colored giraffes, green cats and blue elephants. Nursery rhymes, fruit trees and houses, grow in brilliant array on smart fabrics for dolls. Bright red cherries, dots large and small, cheeks and poses of gay flowers, bring us the first melting that Spring is just around the corner. Dashing reds, greens and yellows are all mixed up in the most alluring of combinations. Printed and plain fabrics are used together with cunning results. Pastel shades, soft colors, bright hues every conceivable trick has been employed to fashion new toys for new fashionables. As to trimming, one quite a few ribbon bows, narrow lace often adds a daisy touch, snocking is used on tailored dresses and scallops add chen. The numerous ruffles and turboflows of class gone past are no where to be seen. At the party today, Mother has on an adorable dress of silk crepe both dull and lustrous sides being used with charming effect in Desism 1253. Nurse has on the small white linen garment that always makes her look so trim and neat. This is a lovely model for Mothers house frocks, too, and may be fashioned of printed fabric with tiger prints.

This caused me to be extremely nervous, so that I did not sleep well at night. I would wake in the morning feeling worn and haggard. I cannot say that I suffered much pain—just weak, tired and run-down. I read so much about Cardul and how it helped other ladies, I decided to try it, as I was getting out of heart. I rested better at night, so felt better in day time. I kept on taking Cardul until I felt well and strong. Cardul did wonders for me." For sale by all druggists. CARDUI Helps Women to Health 10-13 ANNUAL MEETING OF 137th ST. Y IN JOYFUL MOOD Perhaps the deepest significance of the Christian religion is its joyousness, and that seems to be the keynote which the Young Woman's Christian Association strikes. "I its motto is, 'I have come that they might have life and that they might have it more abundantly'." Within the walls of the West 137th Street Branch we want to learn how to love and to be joyous, hopefully, helpfully. The tone of the annual meeting held last Thursday night, January 24, seems to indicate some success in this effort. Annual meetings are often stalemate and they are serious because thought must be taken of the value of work done during the past year and of the direction in which it should go during the coming year. In the course of the meeting there were many serious and moving moments but the most joyful is a jolly one for everybody seemed so happy and smiling. 75 At Annual Dinner Seventy-five members, ranging from sixteen to sixty years of age, sat down to dinner at 8 o'clock in a warm spirit of fellowship. The dinner was served in the auditorium, and abundant turkey dinner was served by the cafeteria, of which Mrs. Susan Adams Lighton is director. During dinner delightful music was played, the music consisted of Miss Ruy Cayer, volumin, both Y. W. C. A. club girls. Between the dinner and the serving of dessert, Miss Ophelia Shields, of the Branch staff, led the group in singing. Mrs. Eugabeth S. Michael, Branch chairman, led the annual meeting with a brief devotional service, after which Mrs. Eva T. Park read the minutes of the last annual meeting. Mrs. Michael then gave her report for 1928, closing with a brief but eloquent and moving expression. After the meeting, Branch, Mrs. Michael has served in the committee for many years. Greetings For Treasurer When Mrs. Virginia E. Scott, treasurer of the Branch for twenty-three years, was introduced the group rose spontaneously to its feet and embarked on a mission. Mr. Scott said a few words in her imbriated fashion and read the treasurer's report for 1928. Following came the general secretary's report. Among the many Inquiries she made, she called attention to the fact that more than a quarter of a million people had used the building in 1928 and that there were many more of whom no record could be kept. Mrs. Vernon John delighted the audience with three piano numbers brilliantly rendered. It is with great pleasure that we are announcing that Mrs. John will play hereafter for Sunday afternoon service in the church. The address of the evening was given by Mrs. George E. Haynes, who took as her subject, "The Occupation of the United States," the most talked of question nationally in the Y. W. C. A. today, Mrs. Haynes presented the problem in a telling fashion, holding the close attention of the audience as a representative of the She is member of the National Board of the Y. W. C. A., with headquarters at 600 Lexington avenue, and she gave to us a sense of the width and breadth of this work at the 137th street, the spot on 137th street, but which is in reality, spread over all this country and in many other countries. At Mrs. Haynes's suggestion a telegram of greeting was sent to the president of the United States which was holding its annual meeting at the same time. Alderman Moore Speaks Brief remarks were made by Alderman Fred R. Moore, who held up to the membership a new ideal of service for the coming year; by Watt Terry and W. H. Willis, who guests at the evening, and by the friends of the Branch, serving as an advisory campaign committee. Preceding the meetings, and throughout the evening, an exhibit of work done in classes of the Education Department was shown in the lobby. The display was so large that it is impossible to make any adequate display in the lobby of work done over a period of four months. Therefore, this year, while some French flowers, lamp shades, hats, pieces of hand knives, scarves, etc., were shown, most of the garments to dresses. The display was exceptionally good. There were afternoon, evening and sport clothes—linens, cottonts and silks, a white linen handmade sports frock being particularly exquisite. The style and color of the frock were exceptionally good.
