"In this recommendation, His Honor the Mayor, stated that my courage was equal to any occasion And this is the occasion that Mayor Tuppins had in mind "A desperado came to Rendville and I was ordered by the Mayor to either arrest him or run him out of town. The "Safety First" motto had not been coined then, but I acted upon it both in spirit and in letter, by deceding to run the desperado out of town instead of arresting him. With handdefts in my coat pocket revolver, in my hip pocket and a policeman's stock in my hand, I kept at a safe distance behind this desperado until he got beyond the line of our Municipality.

"Rendless has had four colored Mayors since the death of Dr Tuppins, namely, S B Allen, James R Cromwell, C R Ginn, and Wm H. Addison, the latter is holding office now. All of these men were ejected over white men who were contending for the office. The senior girls of Hunter College who are graduating this June held their senior hop at the Hotel Ambassador, Thursday evening, February 14. Quite a few colored girls are members of this class, and they purchased tickets for the affair at 67 each. A few days before the affair was scheduled to take place someone advised the girls not to go, saying that the hotel would not admit colored people. They were advised to cancel their reservations and get their money back. Upon advice, however the girls and their escorts went to the dance and, contrary to the first report, were courteously admitted, and despite a little coolness shown by some members of the class, the girls and their escorts spent a pleasant evening. Among the girls attending were Misses Ouse Outram, Jane Humphreys, Alma Jeffries, Thelma Henderson, Hazel Facing, Evelyn Batey and Willie Branch. Their escorts were Messrs Melvin Ross, Richard Baltimore, Langston Hughes, Robert Lewis, Thomas Jeffries and Jack Rudder Republicans To Honor Dr. John R.

NEW YORKER HAS JOHN BROWN'S WALKING STICK George Young, Formerly Running Book Store, Now Owns Cane George W. Young, the well-known bibliophile, of 255 West 144th street, is the proud possessor of a handsome ivory-headed walking stick formerly owned by the marytred John Brown of Harper's Berry fame. The cane of a dark wood, heavy in weight, resembling mahogany, with a heavy silver hand attaching the story head to the cane. On this band has been inscribed the name of John Brown, beneath which is placed the name of Tom Thomas, a Negro, who met John Brown in Maryland in 1855. Thomas later went to California, not seeing Brown any more. The cane, however, passed into the possession of Hon Jason W Steele, then to W W Pride of Springfield, Mass, who died, leaving the cane in possession of his window. Recently Mr. Young had some business with George H Blake, president of the Numermatic Society of New Jersey, and Mr Blake happened to mention the existence of the cane, and that he was acquainted with the window of Mr. Pride. Negotiations finally led to the cane coming into possession of Mr. Young who expresses the intention to have his name engraved below that of Mr Pride on the silver hand. It is quite probable that the moment will finally be placed in some historical organizations archives.

Brooks, First Chaplain Sunday, February 17, marked the tenth anniversary o f the welcome home of the 369th Infantry, A. E. F., the Old Fifteenth Regiment, New York, and elaborate exercises were held at St. Mark's M. E. Church, the Rev. John W. Robinson, pastor, to mark this occasion. The morning service was attend- by a group of the original members of the 15th and Col. Arthur W. Little, who served overseas as a major, and as colonel commanding the 369th Infantry, N. Y. N. G., was the principal speaker. Tribute to Chaplain Brooks Col. Little paid a fine tribute to the late Rev William H. Brooks, former pastor of St. Marks, who was the first chaplain of the regiment. He said that next to Col. William Hayward, the persons did the most credit for the founding of the regiment were Chaplain Brooks and Alderman Moore, who had served in an advisory capacity to both Col. Little and the other commanding officers of the regiment. Col Little recalled an incident prior to the departure of the colored soldiers, where application for permission to hold a farewell parade in New York had been denied by the War Department. Col Hayward remarked to Col Little, "They won't let us parade now but on my life they will be glad to have us parade when we return." This prophecy came true and the 369th was given the warmest welcome of any regiment returning from overseas. Great Day for the Negro. Col Little said in part: "Upon the afternoon of the Armistice Day, November 11, 1918, when our regiment was holding two sectors in the Vosges Mountains, Col. William Hayward in a voice vibrating with emotion, said: 'December 25, the day that Christ was born in a manager, was the greatest day in the history of civilization—this day November 11 is the second greatest day.' Some years later in paraphrasing this thought of the great leader of the old 15th New York Infantry, I stated that February 17, 1919, was the second greatest day in the history of the colored race—the greatest day being September 22, 1863, the day upon which President Lincoln signed the Proclamation of Emancipation. That statement has never been challenged. The 17th of February, ten years ago today, was the day upon which the 15th New York Infantry was welcomed home from the war by the citizens of New York.* 160 Citatione for Valor. Colonel Little briefly reviewed the organization and brilliant war record of the regiment, which was 191 days under fire, received over 160 citations for valor distributed largely among the men, and is the only American Regiment entitled to wear the colors of the Croix de Guerre on its regimental standard besides being the first regiment to reach the Rhine, following the Armistice. "Can we ever forget the 17th of February, 1919? They did not give us our welcome that day because our war was a regiment of colored soldiers—the one that gave us welcome that day in spite of the fact that ours was a regiment of colored soldiers—they welcomed us that day from hearts filled with gratitude and with love and with pride, because one was a regiment of men who had done their duty as men Negro Civic Activity "I am not here to make a political speech, your beliefs and politics are your own sacred rights," but I urge you to solidify your activities toward the best form of government possible to insure your continued progress and advancement.

"About fifty years ago," says Mr. Lewis G. O'Shields, of Porterville, Ala., "my mother gave me the first dose of Black-Draught, and I have taken it over since, when I needed a medicine for constipation. I have used this remedy all my married life in raising my children. "I have used Black-Draught frequently for heartburn, as I have had spells of this kind, off and on for years. This follows indigestion, and indigestion comes close on constipation. "I have found that the best way to head off trouble is to begin taking Black-Draught in time. It relieves me of dizziness, tightness in the chest and backache. "By getting rid of impurities, Black-Draught helps to keep the system in good order. I always keep it in the home, and have recommended it to many people, in my time. I always say a good word for a good medicine." bedford BLACK DRAUGHT for Constipation Indigestion, Biliourness The 18th annual meeting of the National Urban League and its forty-two local branches was held February 13 in the national headquarters at 17 Madison on avenue New York City, with L.

A great deal is being heard and print- sed nowadays about the unfitness of cer- Main: judges to almimster justice in the Gourts over which they preside. In some ®Pi these cases investigations have been fanstituted into the conduct of these judg- "fea in dealing with litigation brought be- “fore them. Appointments of receivers and” referces, it is charged. have been ‘based upon favoritism, and neediess loss- ps have resulted to creditors and others Enterested. So far has this inquiry into phe maladministration of the courts gone, Phat impeachment proceedings have been Whreatened as the only way to correct ob- ‘tiously bad conditions. UNWhile these disclosures have been fade concerning the higher courts, the Pmuinicipal courts of New York have not Sheen exempt from criticism, Complaints ftiave becn made against the attitude of tne of the judges of the West 125th iBtreet court, as “prejuciced, discourteous ‘ind vitriolic,” in his dealings with’ bti- jwants, witnesses and lawyers of the Ne- {gro race. ‘In a recent dispossess proceed: Hing Lefore him, this judge is charged with fecising fone of the witnesses fur the Wefendant with arrest and imprisonment ibn a charge of disorderly conduct, He @lso characterized the defendant and a fitness ns ‘thugs.” and when the woman hegen weeping threatened to send her to) fall. It was in this same court, that the Fetently appog‘ed chief clerk was accus- fail of kicking an attorney in tfe stomach. ivAig thie emurt is loeated in a section where mary of the litigants are colored, the unfitness of a judge who is so obvi- ously actuated by racial prejudice ig glar- ingly apparent. His lack of judicial de- corufn would unfit him to preside over any court whatever, but in his present Position he-becomes a menace to the ad- ministration of justice, ‘The municipal courts (vere instituted’as the poor man’s court, where the many differences be- tween landlords and tenants might be ex- peditiously- adjusted. Nevertheless, as high a degree of judicial decorum is de- manded in dealing with such cases as in the higher coérts, where the amounts in- volved may be larger, but the issues re- main the same. —'A magistrate of the municipal courts should not only be well grounded in, the fundamental principles of the law, but he should have a wide and thorough know!- edge of human natures He should know when to be tolerant and when to be stern, but never descend to the abusive, He should comsnand the respect of attorneys and litigants, so that those secking jus tice may feel an assurance that they will find it, Browbeating attorneys and threat -ening witnesses is a poor way of enforc- ing respect for the court. When such an attitude js obviously due to eacial bia: and prejudice, the unfitness of the judge is manifest beyond denial. + Such judicial misfits should be correct: ed by removal or transfer, THE CHURCH AS A CLINIC | the Federal Council of Chutches of Christ in America has frequently assert- ved a broadness @f statement and liberal- ity of thought én its publi¢ outgivings. This was again manifested in the report issued by its committee on Marriage and Home, which declared that the church has much to answer for in the present unsettled condition of the home. The re- port included a set of specific recom- mendations to the churches, in which was emphasized the importance of marriage as leading to children, happy homes, the joys of parenthood and the enrichment of life. This phase of living was present- ed as deserving a new place in preaching and in the entire program of the church. Among the disquieting tendencies of the age pointed out, were the lack of per- sonal attention to their children on the part of well-to-do parents and the shift- ing of their care to special achools and hired teachers. The number of working ‘mothers, who have to be absent from em when their children return from school, was instanced as a drawback to ‘the training and care of childhood. The presence and cooperation of the father = declared a necessary element in the ‘maintenance of normal home life. In ‘seeking to improve present conditions, it was held that the churches can do very much more than they are now doing to lessen marital unhappiness and to pre- vent the collapse of homes on the point of breaking.” The chief problems of marriage, it was clanmed, are subject to spiritual treat- ment, evén in the great number of homes which are full of unhappiness while. pre- senting an outward harmonious appear- ance, To meet this emergency, it was suggested that “every church at its best, would be a kind of clinic, to which peo- ple would come for guidance and for help to overcame their troubles as they now go to physicians for their physical ills.” This view of the minister as a cure for souls is not an entirely new one, but it presupposes the possession of a large fund of discretion on the part of thie spir- - Fual adviser, and a sound admixture of worldly wisdom with his spiritual con- solation and advice, The members of the clergy qualified to act in such capacity are not any too plentiful. More practical suggestions were made to“pastors in exercising care in the per- formance of marriage ceremonies, such as not to officiate in the case of unknown patties and rustaway marriages. Caution ‘should be exercised in marrying divorced ‘persons, especially if they: belong to an- other communion, Stunt weddings, such as those at fairs, in airplanes and the like, were discountentnced as debasing the rite, and the committee recommended that ministers associations make a public protest against them ‘The seport deplored the over emphasis of sex im literature and on the stage, with the increase of divorce and the apparent growth of laxness in the relations of the sexes. It was admitted that the church had spent its energies largely in abstract teaching and institutional activities to the neglect of these more practical mxt- ters. Doctrinal and general preaching have until recently received too great at- tention, While the clergy have as a rule not given themselves energetically to the social and economic struggle for the lives of the hard pressed masses of the popu- lation, Such matters asa living wage, a shorter workday, ‘housing for people with small incomes and protection of’ working mothers still seent, to a great number of Christians, as rfot a*real part nf the Chris tian nck, according to thia report, which ‘THE NEW YORK AGE inferentially would include them in the things the church should work for. The slown€as of the churches to recog- nize the redemptive ‘character of social ‘work in the field of family wellare wer admitted, with the implication that’ this was a function that might worthily be ex- ercised. The problem ‘of the unadjusted home has been systematically tackled by comparatively few, including the’ docior, the lawyer, the social ‘worker and the courts, Here the church would find fruit- ful field for well-directed effort, The changes made in the home by the emanci- pation of women were also instanced as having a bearing upon laws and social clistoms which surround courtship and marriage, . This fact requires readjust- ments in which the church might exer- cise a salutary influence. . There is much food ior reflection in this report, ‘The ministers of all the churches might do well to study at and adopt the practical plans outlined for so- lation of the various problems discussed. They are problems cammon to all human communities and ifidividuals, without distinction of race, color or condition. The sooner the cHurches make a practical effort to assist in their solution the bct- ter for all concerned. SLLITERACY IN UNITED STATES. In an article upon the illiterate in the United States, the Bangor’ Commercial said that, according to the census, there are six illiterates among every one hup- dred persons over ten years of age. This illiteracy rate of six per cent. 1s pro- nounced as “not a very brilliant record for a country whose annual income is es- timated (0 be Somewhere between $60, 000,000,000 and —_$75,000,000,000 and whose national wealth is set at $400,000,- 000,000” It continued In literacy this country ay behind France, Hogland, Germany, Sweden, Norway, Nether- lands, Switzerland and Denmark, Ard by States the illiteracy here ranges from as low as 1 per cent to as thigh as 22 per cent In fairness to this country it must be suid, however, that the percentage of Interacy among the white, English-speaking people. of the United States is as high as it not higher than that of the corresponding native class ‘of any other country. The great educational problem in the United States iy carrying edt uucation to the blacks, Indzans, Mexicans and immigrants. So far as carrying education to the blacks is concerned, the trouble is to get a fair division of the school funds in many of the States, of which Missouri with all its educational advantages is a conspicu- ous example, according to the St Louis Argus. Progress has been made in this respect in such states as North Carolina and West Virginia, Even Georgia has shown a tendency of late years to do a little more for ‘Negro education. But most of the Southern States are still try- ing to keep their black citizens in the depths of ignorance, by denying them a rightful share of the school funds BEAUTY CULTURE BY LAW. The practice of beauty culture has gained recognition by the nation’s law- ‘makers in the introduction of a bill by a Congressman from Pennsylvania to. li- cense and regulate hairdressers and beauty culturists. ‘This bill would create a boatd of “cosmetologists” in the dis- trict of Columbia, which would control the issue of licenses and formulate sau- tary rules for the conduct of beauty shops and hair dressing parlors. The board would consist of three members. two of whom shall be hairdressers or cosmetolo- gists and the third a licensed physician. ‘The secretary would receive a salary of ‘three thousand doUlars. The other mem- hers shall recejve tei dollars a day for actual duties and expenses The bill provides that before any par- son may practice or teach beauty culture or hairdressing application must be filed with the board accompanied by a health certificate and proof of qualifications as to age, education and character. The amount of the fee shall be deposited and ‘the applicant will undergo un examina- tion as to fitness to practice or teach “cosmetology,” as the art of making beautiful is to be krlown Provision is made for the appointment of examiners and inspectors to carry out the provi- sions of the bill It is also provided that it shall be unlawful to permit any person to use for residential purposes or to sleep in any roont used wholly or partly for beautifying purposes One hundred dol- lars fine. or ninety days im jal, or both, is the penalty for violating this law, the offence being a misdemeanor The bill defines the practice and teach- ing of cosmetology to be and include “any and all work generally and usually inchicled in the terms hairdreseng and beaut culture and performed in so-called hair dressing and beanty shops ordinarily patronized by women, which work is done for the embellishment, «leanliness, and beautification of the woman's hair, scalp, face, arms or hands or the upper part of her body."

Herbert Jung. He read the last chapter of the Old and New Testament, and said the morning prayer, after which he introduced W. Dyer Blair, who was to deliver the sermon. Mr. Blair used as his theme, "Facing the Challenge in Religious Education," to plainly answer the evidence that they as parents must begin while their children are in their earliest years to give them the right kind of Christian teaching in the home and the education to have they grow up into the right kind of thinking men and women. He also told of the great need of opening the church at least, once a week for Christian teaching and the right kind of supervision of the children. The result of his sermon, plans have been made for a meeting during the mid-weekly service hour on Wednesday evening at 8 p.m. to form plans for such meetings. He and Mrs. Blair will be on hand to discuss this meeting. After the service Dr. Garner introduced A. G.

The inhabitants of the earth would be blind, the children would be blind, the decisions and feelie guesses were it not for the light that the Holy Bible throws upon us. For the neglect of teachings from the Holy Scriptures, and for the non-interest that cebel man has displayed in his writings has caused mighty empires and kingdoms to come down to the dust of the earth. According to modern HOMO the Holy Bible is merely a book that cebel man has written that they had nothing better, to the contrary, however the Holy Bible is nothing shorter than the language used by the Almighty to guide His people since the beginning. For in the beginning was the Word, and that was God with God, and the Word was God. One of the many ways used to acquaint Christians with the Holy Scriptures is in Bible classes. For this reason Bishop R. C. Lawson taught the class held at regular meeting Monday evening, February 11 Superintendent Hill of the Sunday school has been added to the faculty. The weekly missionary service were inspired on the evening of February 14, Tuesday, February 12, Elder Carrington preached in the main auditorium. A little child was baptized after the sermon. An interesting and inspiring program was held Wednesday, February 13, under auspices of the Junior church from other churches to come and worship the Lord with us. Our junior for church is held every Wednesday evening through the year. Elder Peter Brown was chief speaker for the junior church last Wednesday. He used John 3:16 as his text. Public Bible class was taught Thursday evening, February 14, in the main auditorium by Pastor R C Lawson. Numerous Bible questions were asked and answered. We invite everyone to our public Bible classes. The next class will meet on Friday to bring your Bible question. February 15, the weekly Friday night divine healing services were well attended. Pastor R Lawson preached an eloquent sermon on the "Alls of the Holy Bible, taken from various scriptures, such as "But my God shall supply all your needs: according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus;" "All things worketh together for good to those who suffer, etc." Many were praised for the healing of their bodies. A large number came out Sunday morning to the eleven o'clock service. The pastor, Bishop R C Lawson, selected Acts 14:22 as the topic of his discourse. His sermon dwelt on the tribulation of life that refines the essence of God as purpose purity of heart and mind in the world but likewise in this world. The structure of the sermon ran into these immutable words of God, "What soever a man sooth that shall he also reap" A filled auditorium heard the sermon the evening service taken from 2 Kings 11:24. Lawson proved in his sermon that men were blind to the Spiritual happiness, joy, and peace of God because of the lust of their flesh. And in pursuing the pleasure of the world they isolated or cut themselves off from the world, and in saying they fied the fact that the true church was the church that was established on the day of Pentecost, recorded in the Acts of the Apostles. All others that originated since that time were the outcome of the ideas and ventures of man. Baptism and divine healing ser Service every night except Saturday.

What ever we do, wherever we go Jesus will show us the Christian shine among those who are using their mouth as a masterpiece for the devil and their throat as his blowing horn. At 3 p. m. there was a platform meeting conducted by Mother Relief president and Silver President, presiding over the Women's Ministerial Conference spoke to a large congregation from the 4th chapter of St. John, 28th verse.

M. E. Church One more great day was registered in the history of Enmanuel A. M. E. Church, of which Rev. D. Ward Nichols is pastor, Sunday, February 17. At the morning service, Rev. K. W. Walton of Yonkers, N. V. preached from the subject, "Jesus, the Teacher of Man." This was a most instructive and practical sermon, and at its close four persons joined the church Rev. E. H. Coit, Secretary of Missions, was present at this service and made encouraging remarks when the pastor announced that he has made one of the trustees of the church. The Sunday school met at the regular hour. It is an inspiration for one to see the progress the Sunday school is making. It has become necessary new to use all parts of the building to accommodate the pilgrimage, keen rivalry between the classes for ease in membership and collection. The Senior Mute Missionary Society held a short meeting at five o'clock, at which time Mrs. S B Nichols outlined a program to educate the local society. The regular monthly meetings will be held each second Monday night at the parsonage, 209 Edgecombe avenue. At the evening service the pastor presumes of the service of sermons on "The Religions of the World," the subject being "Judaism."

Miss Madeline Barb 370 St. Nicholas avenue St. Paul Baptist Church The St. Paul Baptist Church, Rev Jr. Anthony, Booker, Visigist. Arthur Blaker, admiral We are most proud of the seven series of revival services held in the present year. Rev. James Williams is giving stirring messages in all these services. Souls are being converted, and new members added to the church, while the attendance increases nightly. Sunday is a special day, and on early in the morning until ten at night, St Paul Church had people in it. The sunrise prayer service was well attended, and the people had a grand spiritual time. A. 11 a.m. the choir and master at the best. Kenneth Theresa was so well known to the monastery server, and charmed the priest with his sweet voice. The pastor preached on "The Power of The Cross, and at the close, so persons were happily converted. The most encouraging thing was to see a mother and her three sons, all converted at the same time, and, with In the afternoon Dr. W. A. Campbell, with a goodly number of his members, were present, and preached the baptismal service. It was a coming message. I can dates were baptized in the pastor. which are only a small part of those who are yet to be baptized. Mera, Johnson, of Metropolitan Baptist Church, who, with other members, came over to give a program for the Missionary Society, after listening to the man whom, announced that the program would be deferred to another time. At the evening service, after the pastor had spoken briefly on "Christ And The Cup," the hand of fellowship was given to a large number of new members. Yet, even then, these were not half of the persons that have been voted into fellowship. God is greatly likening the church in locality, and the prospects for the future were never as bright as now. St. Martin's Chapel It being the first Sunday of Lent, theirmon by the Revered Auxiliary William S. St. John's Chapel, 122nd street and Lenox avenue, was well suited to the beginning of the penitential season. Referring to the main point in the text as found in the 5th verse of the 34th Psalm: "They looked on me and were not confounded. Mr. Williams said that: 'it should be the aim of every christian to live a radiant life,' his interpretation of radiant being that which has a light within itself. However the christian was so seated during the Lenten season, the follower of Christ should strive to eradicate the things in their hearts and lives that tend to form a barrier between them and their Maker. Making a practical application of this thought, he admonished further that professed christians should allow - the light emanating from Jehovah to become a part of their being, and to radiate in their daily lives. The mandate of the light shine before men that they may see your good works." Last Thursday evening, the confirmation class and members of the congregation were inspired and uplifted by the deep and earnest discussion given by William S. Samuel, The real and meaningful meaning of the Episcopal Church's breath, its simplicity and its power—was felt by everyone present. Flowers for the altar were contributed by Mrs. Gerritte Henderson, the pastor of Henderson; also by Mrs. Beasie Austin, in memory of her daughter, Elizabeth, and her niece, Louise Littlejohn. The first candidates for confirmation will be presented to the Bishop Sunday evening, February 24, this week, as the first anniversary of the church. At the morning service, a project which is to aid in greatly augmenting the Easter offering for the building fund wasably presented by Counsellor R.E. Cary, chairman of the executive committee. It will be the hearty cooperation of the members. The vicar, the Rev. John H. Johnson, extends a broad invitation to all who want to be better christians to come and worship at St. Martin's. Mt. Olivet Baptist Church The audience of Mt. Olivet Baptist Church was well pleased to see the pastor, Jason, and his wife his friend from Charleston, W. Va. Sunday morning, February 17. He spoke on his visit to the home of Rev. and Mrs. J Raymond Henderson of his visit and speech at the Virginia and his visit to the Girls Industrial Home at Huntingdon. He chose for his text, 2nd Peter 1st chapter and the latter part of the 1st verse, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God. Shall the Saints of God topic was "The Supreme Value of Faith." He spoke of the three graces, Faith, Hope and Charity. He explained that faith is vital to the spiritual and to the church as a maintained or easily dispensed with Faith shall be tried by winds of temptations, and storms of adversaries, but just as a tree takes deeper roots as it grows and is attached by winds so does faith take deeper roots as it grows and is attached by stepping stones to something better. He explained that the reason John's experiences were written in the Bible was not because his troubles excelled offers, but because he bore them through his faith in God. Himself, he said, shy yet will I trust him" showed his great faith in God The Bible does not explain God, but assumes Its existence. In speaking of analyzing faith, the pastor reminded us that just as the fact stands that we do not examine the chemical elements in our food when we eat it, we do not examine faith, the chemical peeking of faith as our companion through trouble, sickness and death. This sermon was an inspiring and highly spiritual message. This, with the gospel song by Sister Tribbitt following the sermon, gave to the services, the old revival spirit. The pastor's niece, the daughter of Mary Milton, was accidentally killed in an automobile accident in Carolina where she teaches school. The pastor went South to get the girl's body and therefore could not be present at the evening service. Rev. DeWitt Ferriman, evangelist to preacher of Chicago, preached. His text was "Walking the Water." He spoke of how people doubted the Sacred God in whether he was the Messiah or not. He was illustrated of how God's Spirit moved on the waters in the beginning and Christ, who the Spirit of God also cared or walked on the water being one and the same spirit, was enlightening. The choir sang beautifully, "I'm coming through this unfriendly way following the sermon." Fourteen people joined church through out the day and $675 65 was collected. FOR DESIGNING and DRESSMAKING, Inc. 31. MONTGOMERY PLACE, THENTON, N. J. A. Nice Three-Story Brick Building with all improvements for Students Course completed in Four Weeks Diplomas Gives Silouam Presbyterian Church Sunday was "Every Member Present at Sloan. At the morning hour of worship Dr. George Shippen Skipper, pastor, taking his text from Ephesians 3:20-21, emphasized God, the Cross, and the crossposts. In portraying the cry of the day for a new concept of God he brought out that we cannot give up prayer; the lips might cease to pray, but the heart will cry out for the Living God. We cannot give up the tyrma because when some great threat comes, the soul will sing its lyrum and the heart will find no peace until it cries out and sing its song. We cannot give up God because no people that ever lived but have had an idea of God. "Everywhere man believes in God everywhere man must have some idea of God beginning to everything and there must be a beginner, called by whatever name you will. You cannot destroy the idea of God fixed in the mind of every man. Nothing in the world is more fixed than the idea of God. The church is fixed and through it the church will be led of the Christ the whole world shall come by way of the Cross to know the truth and spirit of God.

"Isn't that the Concord church we do know it was James B. Adams, about whom the remark was made. The Federation of Churches broadcast this program over WLTH. Lyndon H. Caldwell, director of the choir, used as solos in one anthem, Anthony Dobbin, promising tenor. The Concordia of New York, "The Eyes" from "Elijah" and "Go Dove Moses," in good form, Rev.

Nazarene Cong. Church The most talked of service in Brooklyn last Sunday evening was the exchange between Dr John Howard Mellish, rector of the Holy Trinity Episcopal Church, and the Henry Hugh Proctor, pastor of the Nazarene Congregational Church. Dr. Mellish made a deep impression on the large coated audience by his candor and frankness in his speech, and to the equality of the Negro with the white, and made a strong point for the treatment of people on their merit. Dr. Proctor was cordially recalled at the Holy Trinity Episcopal Church. He spoke on "The Fate of Lincoln'sOLD Friend," was the first ruler of the earth to have faith in all men. He then showed how Lincoln's fame reated on this single thing, and then demonstrated that the Negro had justified the faith of Lincoln by the national economy, and the nationality, and spirituality. Then he made a plan for mutual faith and co-operation in worldwide brotherhood. The Woman's Club will give a "Trip" Around the World, March 6-8. Much interest is being created in this novel plan for the mutual fair. Mrs. Lark Scott is president.

Dr. Proctor gave the Washington Day address before the Kwanza Club of Buffalo Wednesday, and preached on "The Perfect Prayer at the Lloyd Memorial Congregational Church that evening. Friends of Dr. J. E. Moore will rejoice to know of his improvement at his home 183 South Oxford Street. The pastor will preach Sunday morning on "Our Pet Sins," and at the evening the Rev. T. J. Ball will preach on "At the Foot of Sinai." Lacking neither fervor, adaptation, or knowledge of men, Rev. William C. Brown, pastor of Fleet' Street Church, always abides by admonition himself to the occasion of the circumstances and to his congregation. It seems that Christ is the source, the center and the circumference of his life, thus his preaching is centered in subjects always possess unity, order, order and education, and he is educated in the art of effective speech. As usual, the pastor's hearers on Sunday were greatly benefited by his sermons at the morning and evening services. The Sunday session was enjoyed at the Sunday session and the attendance is steadily increasing and the collections are well up to the standard. The Christian Endeavor, too, is making rapid progress. At 3 p. m., the Holy Communion was administered, Rev. Mr. Edgar King preached the communion sermon.

Edwards defended his title as the Metropolitan indoor 1000 yard champion, and came off an easy victor. The meet was featured by the setting of a new world's record of 60 metres by Daryl Williams, who won of Edward teamsmates at the recent Olympic games in Holland. The colored star, who is now captain of the New York University, team, ran what amounted to almost a solo race in the 1000. He won by 40 yards in 2:17, after leading from the gun.

BIRNLE Atlanta, Ga.—Morehouse College trumped over Clark University in the fastest game seen on Atlanta courts this season by a score of 29-22. The game took place Saturday, February 16. The Clark boys took the lead early in the first half and held it throughout that session, but when the Morehouse team returned to the game in the second half the tune changed and once in front the Maroon team began using a weird floor game which they executed in an excellent style. The Clark players never being able to see into it. Traylor was high point man for Morehouse team with 13 markers. His floor helped the Maroon team cause in working the ball down the court, and he broke up many a rush which might have meant points for Clark's team. Crawford and Hawkins, guards deserve plenty of credit for their performances. Both boys drifted down the court to drop the ball through the loop when the occasion presented itself, and were on the spot to the shots taken by the Clark forwards. The fact that they were getting the ball off the back board, preventing many crop shots by Clark's sharp-shooters, kept the Panthers score down to a point where it was easily reached by the Morehouse boys when they began to find the basket. Archer and Hawkins worked with Crawford in most of the passing parts of the game and the three handled the ball flawlessly. Banks substitute forward, came to same when he sank the basket that tied the game. The entire Morehouse team played their best game of the season. They showed tremendous improvement over their past few weeks of play for Clark Dalton and Johnson were best. Morehouse (29) L.

This lead was soon overcome and the visitors tied the score At the end of the first half, the score stood an eleven-eleven tie. During this frame of the game, like the former until three minutes of play, the scoring was a see-saw affair.

Exciting Drama At The Alhambra This Week There is abundant reason for the enthusiasm of the audiences at the Albambra this week. The drama, "Monster or Man," is a production so wierd and so tremendously exciting that many people sit breathless until the finish, and then the applause is a tumult. As the Monster, a soulless thing in human form, created by a madman biding in the great sowers of Paris, Barrington Carter plays a role that perhaps no one but Lon Chaney could duplicate. The madman, plotting fels gruese revenge for years of imprisonment on Devil's Island, is played by George Randol, and his equally crazed sister by Susie Sutton. An adventurous American youth just out of the army, as played by Ted Blackman, lends a lighter touch to this strange drama of the Paris Underworld. "Magic Melody," the musical comedy affair, is unusually gay and full of spontaneous wit and humor. The Night-Hawk Band, with Edgar Haves directing, out does itself in its stage appearance. There's a presentation of new features and a quick medley of recent Alhambra hits—Amp, Brooke Jonnie Lee invoking Amp, Brooklyn Jake Young, Alma Travis, Manda Randolpik, Jackie Young, Will Brant and many others.

Dolores Costello and Conrad Nagel are the stars of "Tenderloin." It is a story of the Underworld dens of New York—its bootleggers, its jackers and its gunmen. It is by far more thrilling than "State Street Sadie." The stage part of the program offers as fine a musical comedy as has been presented at the popular Seventh Avenue Theatre in many months. Most of the players are new to the New York stage have been brought in by Quintant Miller and Marcus Slayer from Los Angeles. The revue is called Golden Gate Follies. The famous Dixie Kiss, Marzarez Sims, Amen Davis, Emma Hawkins, Marcus Slayer and Billy McLaren are part of the cast of forty-five. The music is rendered by a jazz band which has until recently been performing in the famous Tracadere Night Club of Los Angeles.

Banging hammers, swishing paint brushes, droning electric drills and the presence of dozens of mechanics during the past few days told the patrons of the theatre and the hundreds who pass there daily that something unusual was going on in the Lincoln. From the newly painted doors the spick and span uniformed ushers, to the attractive stage illumination, there was an atmosphere which has new, inviting, invigorating. And when the show started promptly at 1:30, the audience sensed that a new era had dawned in the management of the Lincoln Theatre. After witnessing the performance, they were enthusiastic in their prizes of both stage and screen plays The stage program is "Radio Follies," starring those world-famous comedians "Butterbeans and Susie. This particular pair of entertainers have not appeared at the Lincoln Theatre for ten years. Their appearance on the stage was the signal for a demonstration which fairly shook the walls of the theatre. And they responded in a way which showed why they are toda y at the very top line of colored performers. The revue which Butterbeans and Susie have is the finest in which they have ever appeared and one of the best seen in the city. It is one and one half hours of side-splitting comedy, peppy dances and sweet music. If the new management of the theatre can supply the patrons of the Lincoln with this type of entertainment, the past glory and popularity of the theatre will be quickly revived. The photoplay part of the program included as its feature "Sal of Singapore," a melodrama of the Underworld life of San Francisco and China.

The revue in which Johnson is being staffed is called "Crazy Rhythm Blues." It is the greatest of Harper's creations. The feature act in this revue is Al Moore and Freddie Washington who have just returned from a tour of the capitals of Europe where they were hailed as among the world's greatest dancers. be one of the most unique and enjoyable stage offerings in the city it will be presented by a cast of sixty-half of whom are Spanish A rate treat is in store for the patrons of the Lafayette Theatre next week THEATRICAL JOTTINGS Ev BOB SLATER Butterbeans and Susse are back with us again.

Walking Melodrama BROIN DOINGS AMONG PULLMAN PORTERS -: GENERAL NEWS § THINGS SEEN, HEARD AND DONE AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYES NEGROES AND THE PULLMAN SERVICE Ir as quite true, as Mr, Leater Walton has stated in a recent article on the passing of Negro waiters in the resort hotels and restaurants of Florida, Negroes still retain their popularity us servitors on dining cars and in the Pullman service, despite the introduction of white ser- sitors im many places formerly filled exclusively by Negroes, Hut from the statements of a Pullman tan, whose connection with the Pullman management is close enough to clothe them with a certain degree of credibility, Negroes in the Pullman service came perilously near at one time to losing some of this popularity. The statements from which this opinion is culled were uttered prior to Mr, Walton's arucle, and were made in the course uf converration between the Pull- man man and the writer on certain phases of the Pullman service. During this talk, the subject of the employment of Filipinos came uy The writer wanted to know if the brown men were proving sat- islactory. So far as he knew, said the Pullman representative, they were, “Dut,” added the representative, "it wasn't the number of Filipinos that were being employed at one time by the management that gave me so much concern for om Negro porters, as it was the knowledge thatMr, A—— had gone to Canada for the express purpote of observ- ing the service of white porters on Canadian railroads.” Since the World War, most of the Canadian railroads have re- placed Negro porters with white porters on their parlor car lines. “Now Mr, A——is the dominant figure in the management of the Pullman service. Whatever he docs and says regarding its pohcies and operations, goes. ad he been impréised with the service of these white porters, and had decided to employ white men as porters ‘on Pullman parlor ‘car line3, therewoRld poe ben little dissent from the Pullman Company, for he is credited 4vith being the (nancial and (uanagerial czar of this corporation,” said the Pullman man. “But wouldn't the American traveling public have rebelled against any such drastic move on the paft of the company, especially, sdter looking upon the Negro Pullman porter as a national institution?” quened the writer. “Yes, most likely, there would have been remonstrances irom a cei tain class of travellers, but these would not have come from the class that could have prevented it. In fact, I am inclined to the belief that had such a move taken place, the protestations against it would not have been any more apparent or weighty than they were when the Filipinos were first employed by the company. About the most satis- faction the Negro porters would have gotten from the public would have been, ‘It's too bod.’ “But, why,” pressed the writer, “did Mr. A——get the feeling that he wanted to change from Negro porters to white porters? I have al- ways labored under the impression that Mr. A— took pride in speak- ing of the number of Negrocs employed by the Pullman Company, and that it was through him that many of our Negro professional men were allowed to work in the service during vacation periods until they had finished their schooling. Furthermore, they say, he takes pride in the athietic and musical activities of the porters.” "Well, it is my belief, that that was just it; be got peeved at Ne- groes", replied the representative. Mr. A—— didn’t think that cer- tain Negroes had treated the Pullman Company with fiarness, after what st had done for some members of the race. He believed thot the activities of the porters in a certain movement should have been left entirely to the porters and the sponsors of the movement, and that the Negro press, Negro ministers and Nexroes of other profes- sions should have idopted a hands-off atttude, The interference of these agencies didn’t help the porters’ cause any, as you are aware, And while I merely offer this as a personal opinion as to why the move was contemplated, still it wouldn't be at all surprising to me to learn that this explznation covered the case.” Without any belief or disbehef as to the merits of the explana- tion given for the contemplated move, the fact that it did not mater- tahze 1s the most important thing. It 1s difficult to imagine the Pull- man Company displacing its Negro porters with white porters, yet stranger things than this have happened to Negroes. Fut instance: the displacing of Negro waiters in Florida hotel ‘Then, again, one cannot well fancy the managing executive of a Qusiness as affluent as the Pullman company taking revenge on its em- ployees merely because certain members of the employees’ race have proved, according to his ideas, to be sngrates On the other hand, there 18 nothing strange about the feeling It 1s nothing out of the or- cbnary in human psychology for Mr. A—to heve reasoned somewhat ike this: “Well, these Negro leaders are cbusing the company by call- ing it a slaye-driver, and all that sort of stuff, so we'll free some of these ‘slaves’ Perhaps that will ease some of the clamor. It may sive them & proper perspective of how much of a slaver the company really 1s." ‘On second thought, however, Mr. —— decided the compzny would do no such thing. The writer doesn't know what others may think about the matter, but it’s hs opimon that it would be a blue day for unskilled Negro labor in America, wete the Pullman Company to decide tht at had no further need for Nexroes on its cars No one can well blame the resentment of this Pullman official against the industrial interference of certain Negro agencies In the porter’s case, it appears to some persons that these agencies are mak- ie effous to scale a ball when all around them are mountains to be her Ged ae a eee + ———_.-____ By LOUIS WHITE ting to note how races and nation: plauded and extolled the superior ac iblical history gives a brilhant recor 1e champion of the Philistines, Golt cing for this valorous act.

THE NEW YORK AGE St. Valentine's Day Party Pleases Girls Of West 137th St. Y Y. W. C. A. club girls think it is fine to have an occasion to celebrate. Especially such a one as St Valentine's Day, with its delightful implications and its gay decorations of white and red. A Valentine Club supper is now an annual event in the Business and Industrial Club Department, this one held on Thursday, February 14 being the second one. The supper was held in the Blue Dining Room White table cloths, red candies, red place cards and song sheets, and dressed dolls made the tables very attractive. No succulence of food was sacrificed for a color scheme. Neither candied sweets, hot biscuits, lettuce with Russian dressing nor the ice cream and caramel cake, were strictly red and white but then the luscious baked ham and creamed cauliflower were, and with piping hot coffee and Valentine candies to top it off, the supper was voted a huge success. There was a little singing-not much, because or the interference of food, but the music furnished-h Miss Hattie Edwards at the piano was "top notch," and the girls had no end of fun playing the games which Miss Viola Lewis led. Miss Lewis, Mrs Joseph Grey, the department chairman and Mrs M W Williams, Business and Industrial secretary, were hostesses for the party. The cafeteria, of which Mrs Susan Adams Lightson is director, received the high praise of all the participants. Mrs Nora Jiles Hill conducted a beautiful and inspiring service Sunday afternoon, February 17 The services was based on the Lord's Prayer Mrs. Olga Wilson Moss of the Branch Dramatico Class did the reading for the service, and Mrs Vernon Johns played the incidental music.

Mrs. Julia Carr-Pierce Dies Suddenly Feb. 12 On Tuesday afternoon, February 12, Mrs Julia Julia-Carr-Pierce, mother of the Rev Sister Mary Agnes Carr-Morris, senior deacons of African Orthodox Church, while on an errand of church duty for her daughter, who is ill, was stricken and died suddenly in the hallway of 678 St Nicholas avenue. Mrs Pierce left home apparently hale and hearty but was discovered in the hallway by a chance passerby, who summoned an officer and assisted in finding a chair for her. Before the stranger Guild return with a cup of tea for the stricken woman, the end had come. A strange circumstance is that she had always expressed a desire to pass away without angering her son. She was born in Hartford, Conn., but lived in Boston, Mass., up to three years ago, when she came to New York to live with her daughter at 256 West 135th street.
