President Mordecai Johnson's Plan To Make 'Education' Howard's First Object Said To Displease the Alumni
Graduate Body Wants to Emphasize Efforts on Football Field By Susidizing Player Stars, But School Head Objects

Washington, D. C.—The Alumni of Howard University is opposed to their president's athletic policy. News stories sent out from this city, and not yet denied, charge that the president is determined to "subsidize" an A-1 educational plant.
Washington, D. C.—The Alumni of Howard University is opposed to their president's athletic policy. News stories sent out from this city, and not yet denied, charge that the president is determined to "subsidize" an A-1 educational plant.
That the old grads want "subsidized football," is the rabble the Miller the most deferential respect understanding of the situation; and Yet, nevertheless, as a group of u whether Howard shall be an educational institution or a football factory is the paramount question answering the Dean's question, withudent Johnson and the Howard grads of yesteryear.
Such at least is the impress left on the minds of many Negroes who never went to college, and who never will go, by accounts of particularly so since Howard's Alumni reaction to a bum Howard football affairs are made public by football team, printed in colored constant write-ups in the public new-papers of the last three weeks prints.
To the masses it seems that
The Hero Worshipper.
The story has to 'do with the "ero worshipper" type of Afric who knows readin', writin', 'ritimetic—whose number is legion; mass group which has to be led by the graduates of Howard, and of other institutions of higher learning.
Any one of the group can tell where Howard is; that it has its first race president; knows Howard's founder was a noble, Christian soldier with one arm, but is likely to answer Sglisbury or Lilbera, if asked the location of Morehouse or Meharry.
To this large group Howard connotes the due assistance of the Federal Government to a rising race; and though the University is not Federalized, in the hearts and consciousness of this type it is "nationalized."
Whether or not it may impress Howard's Alumni, it is interesting to record the reactions of the mass Afric to their not denied intent to fight President Johnson's determination to make football incidental.
To quote an elderly lady in Boston: "Does they (alumni) think the Gustmint's going to keep on giving money to educate the culldid children to have 'em busting up one another rompin' round like a pastel o' wild hoses? They'sools if they does. If the younguns want to romp and 'rastle,' let em do it when they lessons is done. They goes to learnin', not rompin!"
A Great Institution.
A New Yorker calls to attention the fact that during the 20-odd years it was without football Columbia grew to be the biggest educational plant in America. "Every summer," he continued, "my girls have the house full of young women who come from Washington and other places to take courses in Columbia's summer classes. It seems that football may be good to turn up the students; but Columbia has a very great educational institution, even though it has not yet developed a winner during the last four or five years that football has even resumed as a collegiate athlete feature." "If he concluded, 'football is subsidized at Columbia, then took many a year to first 'subsidized the institution.'" Most of these mother-wait fellows were himself not a high school graduate, who "runs as well as trades," muted Chief Justice 'Taft who recently opined that more time is given to winning an athlete UTEER in College than to the achievement of the highest level to work. A Phi Beta Kappa fraternity at Pres. Johnson is of abolishing favors to

Miller the most deferential respect. Yet, nevertheless, as a group of us sat in an automobile in front of the Miller home one afternoon three, years ago a Howard alumnus, answering the Dean's question why he didn't attend alumni meetings, said "the alumni wastes too much time raising hell about nothing."
And this impression is becoming general outside of Howard circles—particularly so since Howard's football affairs are made public by constant write-ups in the public prints.
To the masses it seems that Howard is in process of great development in the upper stages, and therefore more than ever reasonably demands the support of all, support of things basic.
There is a crying need for trained Afric preachers, we are authoritatively told. To meet this need the president and trustees of Howard University have begun a campaign to raise $2,000,000 dollar endowment for the School of Religion, the purpose being to bring this school up to Howard University standards.
This is compelled to approve of the bulk of Negroes, because the Church is the one place where the Afric is substantially organized, regardless of how so many of us moderns disagree with the Afric church theory and practice.
Mr. Louis Lautier, Washington correspondent, tells in a recent issue of the Baltimore Afro American how Howard's president, one removed, and its erstwhile field secretary, "scouted" Negro schools and colleges for football material to make Howard University supreme on the gridiron. The price paid has been too great. What the public seems to demand now is that the president lead in the making of a university and that Field Secretary. Olden keep busy hustling up that Two Million Dollar endowment. They don't think that Congress or the Congregational Church will appropriate money to maintain football scouts and training tables. These, they hold, can well await a far more convenient season:
Nor do they believe it would help the university the least bit should the Alumni assume the financial responsibility of a "winner" at football.
Yonkers' Wife Slayer Gets 20 Years to Life
Yonkers' Wife Slayer Gets 20 Years to Life
Yonkers, N. Y.—Having pleaded guilty to second degree murder, following the stabbing to death on October 1 of his wife, Lola Trent, when he found her on the street with Lenwood Butler of 135 Linden street, Stephen Trent of 88 Nepperhan avenue was sentenced by County Judge Frederick P. Close, on October 31, to Sing Sing for from 20 years to life.
Trent had accused his wife of indiscretions with Butler, and when she left home on a professed errand followed and saw her meet Butler. As he neared the couple his wife saw him and tried to get away from Butler, but Trent overtook her and, after a brief argument, drew a pocket knife and stabbed her several times. Her screams brought policemen, who called an ambulance, taking her to the hospital. She died shortly afterwards, but identified her husband as her slayer.
Butler was arrested with Trent as a maternal witness, but was quickly released.

Patrolman C. Williams Nabs Two Pickpockets
Saturday afternoon, November 2, just as the crowd of out-of-town visitors for the Lincoln-Hampton football game were passing through Harlem, Patrolman Charles Williams, Shield No. 11976, of the 32nd Precinct, nabbed two pick-pockets with long police records, who had robbed visitors.
He arrested William Smith, 26 years of age, of 2460 Seventh avenue, after a chase, at 134th street and Eighth avenue, on complaint of William Mackason that Smith had taken his pocketbook, containing $1,600.
A short time later he arrested John Harris, 23 years of age, of 200 West 142nd street, on complaint of William Stauffer of 2472 Eighth avenue, who charged Harris with taking his pocketbook and then jumping aboard a street car at 134th street and 8th avenue, going north. After capturing Smith he ran to the car and captured Harris.
Smith has a long record in Washington, D. C., and Baltimore. He had been arrested by New York detectives before on charges against him in Washington.

Dr. Weatherby Back At Greensboro Church
Greensboro, N. C.-Dr. R. T. Weatherby was returned to the pastorate of St. Matthew's Methodist Episcopal church for another year, the reading of the appointments at the closing session of the annual conference in Winston-Salem revealed.
Bishop Charles L. Mead, of Denver, Colo., presided at the 71st annual session of the North Carolina conference.
Seventeen years ago Dr. Weatherby became pastor of St. Matthew's. He served six years. Five years ago he was returned to the pastorate of that church. He is now entering the sixth year of his second pastorate there and the 12th year of his entire pastorate at St. Matthew's. Much gratification because of his return has been expressed. Under his leadership fine progress in various spheres of activity has been witnessed, it is said.

Bright, secretary, was for twenty years agency director for several large colored insurance companies. Other officers are Mrs. F. R Ish, vice president; W. E. Watson, medical director; C. C. Neal, treasurer; T. W. Sutton, W. E. Parker, M. E. Griffith, board members.
Policy holders will be hospitalized in the Links Hospital, and are furnished nurse service and physician's care. This service is limited to Pine Bluff at present, but will be extended throughout the state later.

Walker Carries North Harlem
The voters of Harlem went to the polls on Tuesday, November 5, and reaffirmed their loyalty to the principle of elective representation by reelecting Fred R. Moore and John Clifford Hawkins to the Board of Aldermen of New York City from the 19th and 21st Alder manic Districts, respectively; and by electing Francis E. Rivers and Lamar Perkins to the State Assembly, from the 19th and 21st Assembly Districts, respectively.
The only flaw in the day's results was the defeat of the race candidate for Congress, Hubert T. Delany, who lost by about 13,000 votes. The returns show that Mr. Delany had a substantial majority in the districts which cover Harlem proper, but his lead in these districts was not sufficient to overcome his Democratic opponent's large plurality in the 23rd A. D., in which the whites are overwhelmingly in the majority. Gavagan received in this district a majority of more than 13,000, which indicates that Delany had a lead of about one thousand votes in the parts of the other four Assembly Districts, the 13th, 19th, 21st and 22nd, which with the 23rd, comprise the 21st Congressional District of New York.
en him in the 13th, 19th, 21st and 22nd districts. He ran far ahead of his ticket.
The result in these districts follow:
13th A. D., Walker, 8785; La Guardia, 3824—4,961 majority.
19th A. D., Walker, 5720; La Guardia, 5193.—527 majority.
21st A. D., Walker, 7022; La Guardia, 5693.—1,329 majority.
22nd A. D., Walker, 9087; La Guardia, 4464.—4,623 majority.
The largest Negro vote is in the 19th and 21st Assembly Districts, and a part of the 13th.
Although Delany was defeated he made a most spirited and creditable race and was given whole-hearted support in the colored districts. Many white Republicans cast their ballot for him. Mr. Delany carried all the lower Harlem districts, and ran ahead of LaGuardia in the 23rd, the only district he lost.
Mayor James J. Walker was re-elected by the largest majority ever given in a mayoralty election in New York City. He defeated Congressman Fiorello H. LaGuardia, Republican candidate, by 497,165 votes, the latter receiving 368,384 as against 865,549 for Walker.
The surprise in this balloting lay in the exceptional and unusual vote given Norman Thomas, the Socialist candidate, who polled 174,931 votes. The Square Deal party, headed by Richard E. Enright, received only 5,956 votes.
The other important Republican victory was that of Borough President George U. Harvey, who was victorious in Queens County over his Democratic opponent, Edward E. Cox, by a vote of 143,219 to 110,659, a majority of 26,560.
Recapitulation of Votes.
The votes by district were as follows:
19th Assembly District—Rivers 6109, Isaacs 4601, a majority of 1508.
19th Aldermanic District—Moore, 8266; Kelly, 4736, a majority of 3530.
21st Assembly District—Perkins, 6333, Tolk, 5126, a majority of 1207.
21st Aldermanic District—Hawkins, 5234; Austin, 4947; Warner 944. A majority for Hawkins of 288.
In the 21st Congressional District, Hubert T. Delany conceded the election of Joseph Gavagan, his Democratic opponent at 10 o'clock on Tuesday night. The vote at that time was Gavagan 40,046 and Delany 27,261, a majority of 12,312.
Mayor Walker Carried North Harlem.
Mayor Walker's plurality among the colored voters of Harlem was attested by the large vote giv-

Tammany workers, at the instance of Martin J. Healy, leader of the 19th Assembly District, did all in their power to obstruct voting in the colored districts. At several polling places voting machines were found out of order and voters held up for hours. White gangsters, wearing Democratic badges, pushed and crowded citizens.
Public School 89, 135th street and Lenox avenue, was the scene of many disturbances due to tactics of Democrats. Voter after voter was challenged by lieutenants of Healy, which was done to retard voting and discourage hundreds standing in line. Jack Johnson, ex-heavyweight champion, was conspicuous in his efforts to carry out the wishes of the Democratic district leader. The police put a stop to his activities.
Compliments are being heard on every hand regarding the fine work done by Police Captain Bracken and his officers of the 32nd Precinct, who throughout the day handled numerous delicate situations. Capt. Bracken was impartial and fair-minded at all times.
On the lower end of the 19th A. D., Capt. Wall was also active in seeing that all parties got a square deal.

FRATERNAL
The Week of November 9 ASTROLOGICALLY CONSIDERED
BY THEARCHER
It seems that the best birthdate of the week is the 11th. The birthyear will certainly bring some advance in the employment and in business to every one borg on this date. The changes that come will be really worth while. The people born on this date should use these hours on the 11th and try to accomplish some worth while purpose in these hours: 9:28 a.m. to 11 a.m.; 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.; and the night of the 11th between 11 p.m. and 1 a.m. This is an opportunity to try to get ahead and prove that it is possible to do anything at the right time through Astrology. The astrology of this week do not take Astrology very seriously, but it is not as worthless as they think. There is much difference between Astrology and fortune telling, and since most people consider Astrology fortune telling they have not taken Astrology seriously. The really sincere Astrologist renders a service to others that is beyond price. The people with birthdates in the rest of the week will find many changes and removals in the birth-years. The 9th is a birthdate that will bring a need of much patience and care in dealing with the employer. The friendship of the opposite sex will be the one bright spot in the birthyear, for, through the opposite sex will come the help and faith that will be really needed. The 10th improves quiet a bit, and does not offer much worry through the employment. There seems to an indication of ill health among those around the people of this day. Some unusual events will mark the birthyear.
The 12th will bring some change in the family ties during the new birth-year, and it is not adviable for people of this date to make any sudden changes or removals. The 13th promises, financial gain for the birthyear, and some unexpected event will mark the year. Family changes are indicated for many. Patience and good judgment will help to accomplish some worth while things. The 14th brings some changes that will prove worth while in the birth-year. There is an indication that the affairs of the opposite sex will require careful thought, and new friendships among the opposite sex will not turn out as expected. The 15th will bring much spiritual development and growth in the birth-year, for the affairs will not bring as much gain and success as the people of this date would like. Old plans and the old friendships will turn out best

Late Lewis H. Latimer, Electrical Inventor, Is Paid Tribute At The 'Light's Golden Jubilee' Program
Only Colored Member Edison Pioneers; Two Surviving Daughters Are Special Guests of Pioneers at Edison Celebration Menlo, N. J.—One of the interesting features in connection with the recent "Light's Golden Jubilee," celebrating the 50th anniversary of Thomas A. Edison's invention of the electric light, was the presence of two daughters of the late Lewis Howard Latimore, of Flushing, Long Island, the only colored member of the Edison Pioneers, the group of workers who were associated with Edison in the development of his electrical inventions.
The two young women, Mrs. terald I. Norman and Miss Louise Lutmer, of 137-02 Juniper avenue, Huang, were extended an invitation to attend the celebration of the "Pioneers," of which their father was one of the founders, and they were shown many special certificates by the Edison officials. The exercises were held in collaboration with those held at Dearborn, Mich., where Mr. Edison took personal part in the program, in association with President Hoover, Henry Ford, the automobile manufacturer, and many other distinguished citizens.
A: Distinguished Inventor.
Mr Lacmer was a distinguished electrical inventor, having perfected a method of making carbon-filaments for the Maxim electric inundecent lamp, or which he secured patents. He had several other electrical inventions to this credit, and was held in high esteem by Mr. Edison, Hiram S. Maxim and the other eminent inventors with whom he worked.
At the celebration here, a special tribute to his memory was delivered by Mr. Wardlaw, secretary of the Edison Pioneers, of 40 West 40th street, New York City, and placed in the official records of that organization Mr. Wardlaw, after telling of Mr. Latimer's connection with Mr. Maxim in the United States Electric Lighting Co. Bridgeport, Conn., and his keen perception of the possibilities of the electric light and kindred industries," spoke in part as alloy
Installed Light Plants
He assisted in installing some of the first "Maxim" incandescent electric light plants in New York City, Philadelphia, and Canada for the United States Electric Light Company, and supervised the production of the carbon filaments employed there, such as the Equatorial Building, Fiske and Hateh, Casswell & Massey's, and the United League Club of New York City, well as the offices of the Philadelphia Leider in Philadelphia. In the autumn of 1881, Mr. Camer was sent to London, England, to establish an incandescent lamp department for the Maxim-Western Electric Light Company. In 1882—3, he was employed by the Olstead Electric Lighting Company of Brooklyn, New York, and then by the Acme Electric Light Company of New York City.
With Edison in 1884.
1884 he became associated with the Engineering Department of the Edison Electric Company at 51st avenue, New York City, but in 1890 was transferred to the local department, where he remained until the formation of the Board of Patent Control in 1896 on the General Electric and Westinghouse Companies, becoming its chief draughtsman, a position he held until the abolition of this Board in 1911, when he became as-

Only Colored Pioneer.
"He was of the colored race, the only one in our organization and was one of those to respond to the initial call that led to the formation of the Edison Pioneers, January 24, 1919. Broad-mindedness, versatility in the accomplishment or things, intellectual and cultural, a linguist, a devoted husband and father, all were characteristic of him, and his genial presence will be missed from our gatherings.
"He is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Gerald F. Norman and Miss Louise N. Latimer of Flushim, Long Island, N. Y."

Paul E. Baker Declares That Harlem Conditions Are Vastly Better Than Has Been Painted By Biased Critics Director Harlem League, Church Federation Issues Strong Statement Setting Forth the Fact That Community Is Misrepresented
Conditions among the Negroes in Harlem are not as discouraging as they have been pictured, according to the Rev. Paul E. Baker, director of the Harlem League, a division of the Greater New York Federation of Churches, who in a statement yesterday took issue with the critics of that section of
Providing the financial welfare and religious agencies of New York City will stand back to existing forces for brightness and morality in Harlem, that much criticized section of New York City can yet become an honor and credit to the city as a whole and the Rev. M. Baker. Their many agencies endeavoring to bring healing to this section of the metropolis, and the artistic contact and spiritual resources of a great race are tools to be leased.
Severe Economic Handicaps.
After asserting that 1. Negregs of Harlem were now lamenting under severe economic hand caps that had their beginning in slavery, the Rev. Mr. Baker cited figures of the Children's Aid Society as showing that the average wage in Harlem is only $18 a week that the bulk of the population of that section is engaged in domestic work, and that the rents in Harlem are the highest in any section of the city. He further asserted that the crowding in that area was second only to the lower cast slur. "The low wages received frequently make it necessary, for all of the family to work," he asserted. "This breaks up the home demolizes child-life and puts a even strain on the character on south Much of the crime and immorality of Harlem is due to the difficult economic situation which confronts the Negregs there.
"Colored prisoners of Welfare Island compose 24 per cent of the total group, yet only 4 per cent of the New York population is colored. One reason for the con-
tion is the fact that there are no parole agencies to Negro delinquents. A further factor is the lack of private and institutional organizations working on vocational crime problems in Harlem. Thus the social background makes it colored easy victims to crime tender.

Suffered With My Sides
Above is a recent photograph of Mrs. Bessie Walker, 306 Eighth Ave., North, Nashville, Tenn., who writes:
"ABOUT two years ago, I was suffering with my sides and from soreness in the lower part of my body. I did not rest well at night, so felt about as tired when I got up as when I went to bed. And I was so weak and nervous.
"The lady who lived next door to me advised me to take Cardui. Feeling that I must take something or get down in bed, I decided on Cardui. While on my first bottle, I felt better. I kept on taking Cardui until I had taken four bottles, after which I felt a great deal better. The soreness went away. During my illness, I only weighed about 89 pounds. After taking Cardui I was gratified to find I weighed 140, which was about my usual weight. I do not have any more nervous trouble. I feel just fine."
"I certainly can recommend Cardui."
Cardui is a purely vegetable medicine, used by women for more than 60 years. Made by The Chittunoga Medicine Co., Chittunoga, Tennessee, and sold by druggista everywhere

The "White Primary"
A Menace to Negroes
Editor of the New York Age
May I beg some of your space
to call the attention of your readers
to the tremendous significance
of the present fight being made to
exclude Negro citizens from the
so-called "white primary" in certain Southern states'
Not so long ago, the United
States Supreme Court handed
down a decision in which it was
held that Negroes could not be
excluded from voting in party
primaries. This was in the famous
Texas Primary Case so ably handled
by the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored People.
In decision was epocalh it put the unreconstructed political allegacy of the South in a hole there was no longer any legal pretense for keeping Negroes out of the sacred white man's primary which, in the South, has been herefore more important than the general election. For some time the unreconstructed South was in a quandary. Later it has hit upon the plan of leaving the decision of who shall be allowed to vote on the primaries to tate party committees. The members of these committees are the very whites who have been trying all along to keep the Negro politically helpless. It permitted to, they will bar the Negro just as effectually as they did before the Supreme Court or the United States handed down its great decision.
Florida and Texas are taking the lead in 15 netarious scheme to circumvent the law. One H D Goode, a Negro citizen or Florida, recently brought suit for $5,000 damages against election clerks who denied him the right to vote
in the primaries last April. The case is now being argued before the Florida Supreme Court. If that body genders an adverse decision, the case will have to be carried to the United States Supreme Court. This fight is not merely the fight of Mr. Goode or the Peninsula branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, which, is financing it, not of the national office of the N. A. C. P., which is rendering financial assistance. It is, to the contrary, the fight of all Negro America. If the case is lost, it will be due to lack of money to push it and the guilt will be shared by every Negro
The significant economic changes taking place in Dixie where nine million Negroes reside, are bound to have social and political reflections. In the last election four Southern states went Republican. This presages the downfall of the one-page system and the rise of the two-party system. Negroes will have a better chance to regain the franchise in the net ten years in the South than at any time since Reconstruction. But they will not be able to win out without a stiff fight.
The fighting will take place in the courts. Legal cases are decided largely on the strength of previous decisions. If these precedents are favorable to us, our path to political emancipation will be smoothed, if not, our political future will be as our political past has been in Dixie.
Before it is too late, I call upon Negroes everywhere to go down in their pockets and help the N. A. A. C. P. stem the tide of reaction.

*’ KEEPING AN ISSUE ALIVE.
’During the political campaign just
Flosed Virginia Democrats tried hard to
piiminate the Negro as a political factar,
put without success, although the Ne-
foes themselves showed but little inter-
st in the campaign, The contest was
feally between two factions of white
émocrats. with the Republican lily-
vhites helping the irregulars on the side-
fines. The opposition to the regular
Jemocratic ticket came from the anti-
mith Democrats, who were determined
ko oust the regulars from power,
Notwithstanding the effort to climin-
te the Negro, in which the members of
he race apparently acquiesced, even in-
luding “John Mitchell’ of the Richmond
Tanet who one year sponsored an all-
INegro ticket, the irrepressible bone of
contention had to be injected into the
ampaign in the shape of what came to
known as “the DePricst circular.”
FThis contained pictures” of the Chicago
epresentative and his waie, together
swith alleged excerpts—trom Ins Speeches.
Wt alsé set jorth that the ~Republican
State chairthan, Mr. Anderson, the Re-
publi¢an platiorm and the Coalition can-
ldidate for Governor, Mr. Brown, all ad-
vocated repeal of the pull tax as a pre-
requisite for voting.
‘The Lilywhite leader, Mr. Anderson,
termed the poll tax statement false and
Jaccused Hemucratic headquarters with
issuing the pamphlet. whih was emphati-
cally denicd. It later turned out that the
author of the cireular was I, C, Trotman
Fai Suffolk, a former member of the Anti-
Smith committee, who made the ivllow-
ing statement of Ins reasons fur issuing
it to the Associated Press: *
“1 thought when I issued this pamphlet
and I still think, that the people of \irginia
* should know what the Negra Congressman
Osear DePriest, has said and done in Vir-
ginia and clsewhere since, the opening of this

laws that presctvzd Virgima’s crulizatior
[ = from destruction are’ at stake, | think, too
« the people of irginia should know what De
Priest looks’ Ike and what De- Priest's wife
Tooks like.”
‘The former anti-Smith committeeman saic
ke desired to acknowledge “ore unintentiona

that poll tax repeal was not advocated in th

‘AVorld irom Teronte announced that as

least for a time, ‘This conditiun was

Columbia it’ was reported that the- gov-
ernment stores were driving out “the
bostleggers, although that was a pioneer
province in trying the experiment of pro-
hibition, *
“Ate is significant that the «province of
Ontario gave ten years trial to prohibi-
tion before it adopted the system of gov-
ernment control now in existence. This
system is based on that of Quebec and
the other western provinces, with stich
additional safeguards as __ the situation

to be opened on the premises. The gov-
ernment liquor stores are established
only in communities where there is a de-
mand for them, never in dry communi:
ties, and advertising is forbidden as in
this country, The law as to sales is
stricty enforced and speakeasies are said
to be almost unknown, °°
Public sentiment is by no means unani-
‘mous on the subject of government sale
of liquor, but it ‘is generally agreed that
the ‘system in practice is iree from cor-

cniorce prohibition in other countries,
The prohibitionists have found it neces-
sary to recast the whale front of their
movement. They congratulate themselves
‘on now being free from all political alli-
ances, which have often proved unsatis-
factory. They will now proceed to stress
education as the means of building tip
sentiment against the use of intoxicating
liquor, >
Uniortunately the United States is not
in a position to profit by the experience
of Canada in dealing with the “noble ex-
periment” of prohibition. In this coun-
try prohibition was-made a part of the
constitution, and it cannot he repealed
without the, consent of three-quarters oi
the individuak states. This leaves it pos-
sible for a.small majority in a small mi-
nority of states ta block any attempt at
repeal or modification, In the meantime
it is proposed to make the buyers of li-
quor equally liable to punishment with
the‘ sellers, which will add to the dif
culties of enforcement and probably in-
crease the sentiment in favar of repeal or
inodification. an
PREVENTIVE MEDICAL TREAT-
* MENT.
It would seem that occasionally mod-
ern science “can take a lesson from the
past and find virtue in the lore and prac-
tces of the ancients. Especially true is this
in the field of medicine, where we find
the doctors of today taking a leai from
the, practice oi-the Chinese, who are said
tv pay their physicians to keep them in
good health and stop payment when they
become afflicted with disease. While the
modern practice may not go quite as iar
as this. it is becoming more and more
emphasized that the function of the med-
ical profession is to avert as well as to
cure disease. .
This phase of medical treatment has
been brought to the fore by Health Com-
missioner Wynne of New York City. in
a movement to make the people of Har-
lem ‘health conscious.” ‘This movement
is not confined to Harlem, ax some ten
thousand physicians of the city are to be
included in a general, campaign, carried
fon by the medical societies af the live
boroughs, to hetter the health of the com-
mumty. But the special effort in Har-
Tem is one that more nearly concerns our
readers, hence we tak that as a sample
oi What the Commissioner is driving at
mm this campaign.
-\t a conference held in Harlem recent-
ly, under the auspices of the Harlem ‘Tu
berculosis and Health Committee, and
other agencies, it was Iaid down as a
guiding principle, that the Negro is not
essentially susceptible to disease, but is
Father a victim of a high sickness and
mortality rate in New York hecause of
peculiar economic conditions, One Jead-
ing authority maintained: that the health
conditions of the Negro in Harlem are
as good, if not better than, those af the
Negro in any other large city in’ the
country, ‘The death rate in New York
is a little less than that of any other
Northern wity and distinetly better than
that of mostSouthern cities. Only in
the rural sections ui the South were the
health conditions of the race what they
ought to be, =
The fight for health in Harlem avas
found to offer two solutions: First,
health agencies to amehorate and im-
prove’ the adverse conditions that tend
lo bring abst disease, second, an carn-
cat effort to colonize or distribute the Ne-
gre population in rural sections adjacent
to the city, 0 a8 to lessen and avaid con-
gested conditions uf housing. Until the

THE NEW YORK AGE
‘Illustrating’ what can “be done in-this
line, is the projected health center to be
established jn North ‘Harlem, ‘through
the combined efforts of Mayor Walker,
Commissioner Wynne and the Alderman
from’ the Nineteenth ‘district. Through
this agency it is confidently expected.that
North Harlem will be supplied with nec-
essary medical, social and welfare service
to fight the inroads of disease and to make
the community health conscious, to the
extent that much unnecessary sickness
may be averted through wise precautions,
Stich diseases as tuberculosis, diphtheria,
Scarlet fever, whooping cough, typhoid
fever, influenza, pneumonia, measles and
venereal diseases, which now ‘rate ab-
normally high, could be fought to better
advantage with the aid of this-health cen-
ter.
Another condition that could be rem-
edied through this health center would
be the waste of health and money through
recourse to quacks and venders of patent
medicines, who take the money of those
suffering {rom common ailments, with-
out affording ‘any relief. In many cases
these illegal practitioners not only bleed
the patient of his money but totally de-
stroy his chances‘ for recovery, It is sig-
nificant and encouraging that the medi-
cal organizations of Harlem have joined
forces in this movement to ptovide pre-
ventive medical treatment and to bring
about normal health" conditions.
A FRIEND TO TEACHERS.
In the passing of M. Samuel Stern;
vice president of the New York ‘Board
of Education. the teachers of the com-
mon schools, without distinction of race
or color, have lost a: firm friend, Mr.
Stern's service as a member of the School
Board covered some twenty years or
more, starting with his appointment as
chairman of a local board in 1902. He
was appointed to the Board of Education
by Mayor McClellan two years later and,
with the exception of three years, served
until his death, .
Mr. Stern was particularly active in
the finanicial transactions of the board
and in the care of schools, as well as the
appointment and transier of teachers. He
was a member of the pension board and
his service and advice were considered of
great value in all matters ‘relating to the
teaching force, His relations to ‘the
teachers were “most cordial dnd sym-
pathetic and every member of the force
was assured of his cooperation in the set:
tlement and adjustment of any difficul-
ties that might arise through friction or
adverse.conditions. He hai a fine sense
oi justice, and while insistent that teach-
‘ers should fulfill their duties to the schoo!
system, at the same time rendered them
justice and fair treatment.
It is the voluntary service of men hike
Mr. Stern that helps to make the New
York school system function as smoothly
and as efficiently as it does. It is the
vemocratic principle of fairplay and equal
and exact justice for every individual
teacher in the system, that helps to make
the educational machine function ‘effect:
wwely in the formation of character and
the building up of citizenship. Men of
such character as the late vice-president
of the board are necessary to its wellhe-
ini and efficiency.

“™The Literary Lantern” is a col-
umn printed .at intervals in, the
Greensboro, N. C., Daily News.
In a recent’ s¢sue it devoted much
space to,three books about the Ne-

—Howard W. Odum, John B. Sale
and Guy B. Johnson.
‘Oduin's book, “Wings On My

book, “The Tree Named John,”
and" Johnson's book, “John

books concerning the Negro.

‘When it comes to parks, Houston

with an aggregate acreage amounting
to 2,473. . ”
Tf the Negro element constitutes
one-fifth of the metropolitan popu-
Jaton of Houston, then the race
should have at least one-fifth as
many acres of park grounds. which
would be around the 494 mark; yet
the race has 10 acres at Emancipation
Park, where no improvements are
made to beautify and”enhance the
valuc of the land. * #

15,000 ENTHUSIASTS THRONG POLO GROUNDS AT HAMPTON & LINCOLN FOOTBALL CONTEST Negro Colleges Meet on Gridiron In New York For First Time and People Attend From Distant Places
By William E. Clark Bill Taylor's fighting and fleeing from Lincoln University upset the day Grounds on Saturday to win a 13-6 v Blue and White eleven from Ham Although each team had lost a game season, Hampton's veteran players had to win.
Bill Taylor's fighting and fleet-footed eleven from Lincoln University upset the dope at the Polo Grounds on Saturday to win a 13-6 victory from the Blue and White eleven from Hampton Institute. Although each team had lost a game earlier in the season, Hampton's veteran players had been favored
The game was the first colored contest ever played in New York and more than 15,000 people from all parts in New York City, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia and all far south as Alabama, were inland to witness the contest.
"Jack" Haimon 14 Star
Jack Harmon, the last right halfback was primarily responsible for Lincoln's victory. Within two minutes, at the end of the game, with the score standing 7-6, he dashed from midfield to Hampton's goal line in a successive play, to clinch the contest.
Harmon's consistent playing throughout the game has caused the followers of the Orange and Blue to bail him out a second time.
Both teams scored in close early in the contest. Lincoln touchdown was made possible by a Hampton mumble of a Natural pass from Anderson to Seymour was across the goal line. The extra point was allowed because the Hampton line was 7-7 down. Climbs Jones, Hampton's star halfback had been kept out on the contest because of an injured shoulder, but at this point he would put into the contest and after a exchange of punts, Jones began a drive that enabled him to squirt across the line for Hampton's only touchdown. Harris failed in the try for the extra point.
The remainder of the first half was a kicking diel between Harrison and Anderson, Jones was taken out of the game at the end of the half, but Harrison and Jones tonight on for a second touchdown for the Sesader. They soceeded in getting the ball down to Lanceon's twenty yards line, and here Harrison attempted to drop a knee for a field goal. The ball fell short and Sesader kicked out a danger. Then Harmon began his great growth. After the exchange of punts he marched down the field, making a gain of 8 yards on an off-tide play. On the next run he made 12 yards, then a first down a gain or nearly 20 yards, and on his fourth run he made the goal. In a half-dose more plays the game ended, while the purpose of hurt happy Lanceon warranted in the field to congratulate their team. Between the invades the Haupton Institute.

Addison Carey celebrated his return from the summer season in Washington by bringing to the Lafayette Theatre his greatest musical comedy revue.
The cast of the "Devil's Frolic" is exceptionally good. It includes John Mason, Gallie de Gaston and Jackie Mabley as the main comedians. Doris Rhuebottom, Orlando Robertson and the Southern Harmony Kings as the song birds; the sixteen Carey Howardettes, the five Washingtonian Steppers and two dancing team specialties who are new to the local stage as the main disciples of Terpischore. With such a cast, the show could hardly fail to be as delightful as it is.
The photoplay program is also as good as that which the Lafayette Theatre has been presenting during the last few weeks. The feature photoplay is Henry King's nights at drama, "She Goes to War."
The photoplay program also includes a fast and funny Vitaphone act created by Norman, Thomas and his famous dancing and playing quintet.
At Lafayette Next Week
The 1930 edition of the "Brown Skin Models" will have its premiere presentation at the Lafayette Theatre next week. More effort and money are spent on this annual creation than probably on any other colored revue. Special efforts are being made to make its showing at the Lafayette Theatre for the week beginning Saturday, November 9, a memorable one. Supplementing "Brown Skin Models," there will be the usual excellent photoplay program. This will include "Careers," the first talking picture starring Billie Dove Antomo Moreno and Noah Beery. The program will also include a side-splitting featurette, "The Jimtown Cabaret" starring the greatest colored comedians on the stage, Miller and Lyles.
At The New Douglass
"Noah's Ark," the huge spectac-
ular picture, about which so many
stories have been heard in recent
months, will be seen at the New
Douglas Theatre this Thursday,
Friday, Saturday and Sunday, Nov-
ember 7, 8, 9, and 10.

At Alhambra Theatre
"The Devil Worshippers" at the Alhambra is a dramatic revelation of dark and mysterious deeds done under cover of a curious belief in the powers of Satan. Bebe Townsend, Artie Cain and Bessie Wrightson are chief among the female worshippers of the evil one. George Randol, 'Stanleigh Morrell, Thomas Moseley and Al F. Watts are all devotees of the strange sect.
Billie Shepard is brought into the secret circle by his newly wed wife and is a fearfully scared person, causing a lot of laughs right in the midst of the terrifying ritual.
The ellmax comes when the lawless gathering is raided and the devil is dethroned.
"Top and bottom," called "a mixture of spirited meriment," brings boisterous Dusty Fletcher back to Harlem. Dusty Has been startling in "The Jazz Regime," but says he is through with military service. Sam Manning, too, stirs up plenty of excitement, along with Ruth Trent, a girl comic.
Rose Landers, a soprano of very high range who is a Newark girl Manda Randolph and Edna Young are the principal singers, and Mary Clemons and Wilhelmina Wade both from "Blackbirds," introduce the new "top and bottom" dance.
The picture feature is the Reginald Barker production. "The Rainbow," with Dorothy Sebastian and Lawrence Gray.
Next Week's Show.
"The Gangster Girl" will disclose Bebe Townsend in the role of a bad girl of the underworld to whom the wrecking of men's lives is great sport, until an awakening comes to her.
"Whoopee Days" is promised to be a speedily-paced affair of comedy, tunes, dances and surprises, with a number of new faces in the merry cast.
Jack Hoxie will be the picture star in "The Forbidden Trail."
At The Odeon Theatre
Starting Saturday, November 9, for five days only, the Odeon Theatre will present Oscar Micheaux' latest and greatest production with an all-star all-colored cast. "Wages of Sin."
William Clayton jr. Catherine Noisette and Alonzo Tucker are the stars of "Wages of Sin" which has an interesting and dramatic story and is one of the finest pieces of work ever produced by the colored motion picture makers.
The management of the Odeon Theatre has been more than gratified at the large number of people who have in the past turned out to see pictures made by colored players. Mr. Micheaux, the producer of "Wages of Sin" is the only colored motion picture producer in this country. Struggling against great odds, he has managed to produce the finest pictures in which colored players have appeared, and the management of the Odeon Theatre looks forward confidently to a record attendance for what appears to be Micheaux' best picture.
in it showing how little the heart of man has changed in the fifty centuries that interweave between the Flood and the recent World War. The story begins just before the outbreak of the war, and the victims of a train wreck, on reaching Paris, find that the conflict is on. Then they are carried into the tumult of the nations. At one point a bomb hits a building where they have taken refuge, and they are thrown into the cellar. There a chaplain begins to tell them of Noah and the Flood, and as they are carried back to the ancient time, the story is made a reality. The tremendous cast of the picture includes Dolores Costello, George O'Brien, Noah Berry, and thousands of others too numerous to mention. In addition, the Vitaphone plays an effective role in the dialogue, musical accompaniment and a positively stupendous Flood scene. From Monday to Wednesday, November 11, to the 14th Stepin' Fetcht, the screens most famous and funniest colored actor, will appear with George O'Brien in an all-talking drama or West Point and Annapolis, "Sahute."
RENAISSANCE

Trenton, N. J.—The 250th anniversary celebration was one of the most colossal affairs, ever staged here. On last Tuesday when 50,000 school children with their principals and teachers were in line, our colored citizens felt great pride in Lincoln school and Principal Arthur T. Lone and his staff. The manual training by Edward S. Friman, showing facsimiles of three schools, was simply perfect. Miss M. Augusta Caver, head of the Art Department, had a most creditable showing. The Elks band headed this section and made a line showing. The Congregational DePriest last Thursday night by the Sunlight Lodge of Elks will long be remembered by Trenton people. John W. Lewis was chairman of the committee of arrangements.

Rev. Dr. Brown As This Reporter Sees Him
Aside from his attainments as a theologian and his record as a church builder, the Rev. Dr. James W. Brown, the energetic pastor of New Mother Zion, A. M. E. Church of this city, has earned a unique reputation for himself. For a minister, it is decidedly a novel reputation; but it is none the less complimentary.
In the community which bounds his church, Rev. Brown is known as a man easy to approach, democratic in his tastes and, above all, has a keen sense of humor. Those who have been privileged to come into close contact with him declare he possesses these traits more fully than any minister they know. And, on his sense of humor, they say, he can enjoy a good, wholesome joke about as well as any layman despite the dignity of his calling, his position as pastor of one of the outsiding churches of Harlem, and the manifold and arduous duties which devolve upon him as the head of his church.
That is the picture that the man in the street draws of the shepherd of Mother Zion's Church congregation. But that would not be my delineation of the popular minister. From my contact with him, which, of course, has only been at intervals, I would portray him in a single phrase—a liberalist. For testimony of that, just note this:
A member of Eureka Lodge No. 36, P. A. M.; Monarch Lodge 45, I. B. P. O. E. of W.; Southern Beneficial League; Sons and Daughters of North Carolina; Hamilton Lodge No. 710, Odd Fellows; Clubmen's Beneficial League; Ministerial Brotherhood; King David's Consistory No. 3; Medina Tempe No. 19, A. E. A.; Order of Nobles of the Mystic Shrine of N. Y. C.; Ind. Order of St. Luke; Harlem League Church Federation; American Academy of Political Science; Urban League, and National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
Now, pray tell, who but a liberal could be so tolerant? Who but a free and open mind could stand that array of different orders with their differentisms?
Recently, I had occasion to call upon this clergyman of many affiliations. It was on Monday, and, fortunately, I found him in the church's office, dictating letters to his stenographer. Later he explained that Monday was the day on which he usually devoted to answering his letters. Some of the letters I get, he added, do not merit reply, but as an act of courtesy I answer them all. That, to me, was another estomy to his liberalism. It takes a true liberal to appreciate that no matter how simple or foolish a written communication might seem, if a question is asked, or implied therein, as an act of simple courtesy it should be answered.
But, then, it was an act of plain courtesy for this very busy pastor to grant me an interview. During this interview, the subject of Pullman porters and their activities came up. And, by the way, the Doctor is an honorary member of the Pullman Porters Athletic and Social Club. It was while talking on this subject that I reminded him that some of the members of the porter group had been critical of the lergy for allowing their churches to be used for certain propaganda regarding the porterers industrial situation.
Seemingly the information was somewhat of a surprise to him, but he explained his position by saying that his church didn't endorse or tolerate propaganda of any character. Connected with the church, he said, is a forum. Any subject which has a moral side to it may be stated at the meetings of the forum, but so far as the church itself is concerned it was neutral in all matters in which it is not directly connected.
The Doctor, then went on to say that personally he was in favor or agitation when it was intelligently applied and when the situation demanded it. "I believe," he said, in the philosophy of Booker Washington. Improvements are obtained more by conquest than by behest. He then wanted to know if the agitation regarding the porterers industrial condition had not been beneficial to them. To that question I replied that, from their comments, many of the porterers had thought so.
He concluded the subject by implying that every church had its own policy regarding certain matters, and that where a moral point was involved, the modern church was always on level ground if it saw it to let that point be stated within its doors. In that connection, he saw the modern church as a service station to which all wares having a definite moral side might be exhibited for consideration, but the selling of these wares should, he thought, be done on the outside. At any rate, that was the policy of Mother Zion Church, he declared.
The object of my mission to the divine was with reference to an old friend. The discussion that is mentioned here was merely incidental to that visit. My object being accomplished, I left the Rev. Dr. Brown with a still deeper impression of him as a liberalist in thoughts, in actions and in deeds. A truly unique character for a minister.

Scientists believe that the time will come when mankind, through the mind, can control all of his energy, can be absolute master of the winds and waves, can literally follow the Master's precept. "If you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you shall say unto this mountain, remove hence to younger place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you."
There is plenty room and demand for the literature of the successful publisher. The work of the beginner is in just as much demand as that of a publisher of many years experience, when he travels in the right channels of life for such work.
There are many successful ways by which a periodical can get the attention of its readers, and create a desire among them to read its news. One of the best ways of finding success in this relation is to properly get the following qualifications: Clearness, Conciseness, Correctness, Courtesy, Character, and Coherence. These qualifications make up four cover letters for a publisher, whereas these qualifications are carried out to the fullest extent, there can be no failure in the business of the publisher: and the world will benefit by such a publisher's output.
Mott Haven Yard News
If the vote for the porters and majids in the primary election on the Plan of Employee Representation in this district is a true barometer of these employees' sentiment regarding the members of the group whom they wish to represent them on their Grievance Committee being the coming year then few of the left over members from last year's committee be chosen to represent again this year. This election, however, is only for the designating of candidates, so in the final election this indication may be entirely upset.

New Brunswick, N. J. — The celebration of the 102nd anniversary of the Mt. Zion A. M. E. Church held October 29 to JL. inclusive.
On Tuesday evening, Rev. A. V. Sanders of Mt. Zion Church, Plainfield, delivered an inspiring sermon at the subject. Lest Yey Forget, splendid impression was made on all. A large number of his congregation accompanied him Wednesday evening, Rev. J. W. Collier or Rahway delivered a masterful sermon, subject. "I was in the Spirit of the Lord's Day."
Thursday evening, Rev. J. V. Owks of Princeton was scheduled to speak, but owing to the weather they were unable to be present. One of the interesting features of the event is "History of the Church" read by Mr. Gertrude stuart J. W. Jackson, Joe L. Loretta Doughty and Lydia Schenk are of the committee that yet live and who well remembered the history of many years past.
On Sunday, November 3, closing services of the anniversary morning service The pastor, Rev Horsey, delivered an interesting sermon.
Nevertheless, it is common talk that not all of the present memb- bers of the committee are the best material point of view to present, but defend the contentions and grievances of their fellowworkers. According to talk, this ineffectiveness on the part of some of the present committeemen is not so much a matter of ability as it is a lack of sturdiness, regarding their service record.
Perhaps a clearer way or putting it would be to quote the recent observations of an old porter on the subject. He said:
"Few porters have much confidence in the ability of members of the Grievance Committee to get the employee any more justice breaks in their industrial contentions than the company's management sees fit to allow or grant, but in presenting these various contentions it might be of some benefit to have employees who command the respect of the management to present them.
Seemingly, that is the consent of sentiment among the porters in district, if the returns from the primary election are to be taken as indications of this mood of thinking. The following are the candidates named and the number of votes this received:
F. E. Griffin, 1041, A B Logan, 853, J. Hogan; 835, J. B Ford, 763, E. C. Roundtree, 734, I. Hodge, 422; I. Jackson, 340, H Hogs, 309, H P, Darden, 282, M H, Day, 114
Of the ten candidates, five may be elected to serve on Committee in the final election.
Football has been the main topic for discussion among the porters around Mett Haven Yards preceding and following the tussle between Hampton and Lincoln last Saturday. The porters fraternity was well represented at the game. Among some of the well known members of this district who were porters, were Hammond,ough, Pharohon Davis, R. Mcracken, J. I. Perkins, R. Ringle, Mr. and Mrs. S. J. Freeman, Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Ford and family and H. W. Beckham.
Passing through the Grand Central Station, one day last week, three porters were observed in close conversation, the subject of which must have been of serious import, for each appeared oblivious of his surroundings. An acquaintance wanted to know if a President was at the station? Or why he was at the station? Or why he replied a friend to the three.

Mr. A. S. Jackson writes from Rutherfordton, N. C-
"I would get up morning and my joints would ache. I would feel sore. I would feel sleepy and stupid. I didn't feel water to drink. I heard of Water-Drink and how highly it was recommended. It certainly did me a world of good. So now I keep it in the house all the time. It keeps me in splendid shape." Pains in your joints and muscles are often the result of poison which have been absorbed in the lungs, instead of being carried off in a natural manner. These waste products cause a great deal of trouble to many people, and much relief has been found, in many cases, by seeing to it that the bowels act regularly and freely every day. The doctor Black-braces should be taken to Doctor Brown to open the bowels and put them in a healthy state of daily activity.

GENERAL AND LOCAL NEWS
Famous 24th Infantry, Crack Negro Regiment of the United States Army, Celebrates Its 60th Anniversary
History of Organization Discloses Many Glorious Achievements, Including Volunteer Service in Cuban Yellow Fever Epidemic
The 24th United States Infantry, now stationed at Fort Benning, Ga., was originally formed on November 1, 1869, through the merging of two wartime regiments, the 38th and 41st, at Fort McNavitt, Texas, with Brevet Brigadier General Ranald S. McKenzie, who had won fame during the Civil War, as its colonel.
the celebration of its 60th birthday was held Friday, November 1 1929, with a program of activities that started with a service at 8:30 a. m. in the Service Club and ended with an all-star colored cast moving picture in the 24th Infantry Theatre at 7 p. m.
At 8:30 a. m., the entire regiment headed by the regimental band, marched to the Service Club and Theatre, and listened to a program which included music by the band and an invocation by the regimental chaplain, A. W. Thomas. Extracts from the history of the regiment were given, and there were speeches from the oldest soldier and youngest recruit, Sergeant William McCauley and Private William E. Norris, respectively.
Medals and Trophies Given.
An address was given by the regimental commander, Col. Paul C. Gallerhe, after which he presented medals, trophies and insignias won by individuals and organizations in marksmanship and athletic contests during the year. At 10 a.m., the regiment marched to the athletic field, formed a hollow square, and engaged in athletic and athletic competitions, each company being represented among the contestants. Officers of the r regiment were judges. At 12.45 p.m., each company mess hall was the scene of a banquet for the enlisted men, their families and invited guests, which was followed by a dance from 3 to 6 in the garrison gymnasium for the soldiers and their guests. The event was officially decorated and music was furnished by Scijno's Orchestra, composed of members of the regiment.
Present and former officers of the regiment, with their wives, were guests at an Organization Day dinner at 6:45 p.m. in mess hall. No. 2, and at 7, at the theatre, the moving picture was shown
History of the 24th.
The regimental history showed that after its organization the regiment was divided and assigned posts along the 320-mile southern edge of Texas, known then as "The Frontier," forming part of an irregular cordon of posts set up to guard the Rio Grande and settlements along the edge of the old "Pecis Trail to California." The 24th's main duty was chasing Indians.
After eleven years of service in Texas, the regiment was moved late in 1880 to four stations in the old Indian Territory, now the State of Oklahoma. They were in charge of thousands of Indians-Kiwas, Conachies, Apapaholos and southern Cheyennes, who had been expatriated from the North as punishment, and to keep whites out of the Territory. The whites were more trouble than all the redskins
With the westward moving on the population, the settlers were needing protection from the Indians, and the 24th was moved, in 1888, to stations in New Mexico and Arizona, guarding settlers and miners from Indian outbreaks. It was not until 1892 that the entire regiment was together in one station, being sent to FFort Douglass Utah. This was the first home in a civilized community that the regiment had -or- upheld in the twenty-eight years of its organization.
Helped Take Fort San Juan
On April 20, 1898, the regiment started East enroute to service in Cuba during the Spanish-American War, sailing from Tampa, Fla., on June 14, disembarking at Siboney on June 25. The regiment marched upon Santiago on July 1, and engaged in the capture of San Juan Hill with the 6th, 10th and 13th Regiment of Infantry. Fourth Army officers and seventy-even enlisted men were killed or wounded that day. The regiment had the honor of holding Fort San Juan until July 9, when it was moved into the trenches, where it stayed until hostilities ceased on July 15. On the same day, reports came of the breaking but of yellow fever among the soldiers and that Siboney, 14 miles away, had been turned into a hospital. At 4 o'clock orders were received for the 10th proceed to Siboney for duty in the hospital. The regiment march at 5:30, arriving the plague-infected town at 3:30, aided by 10 with 15 officers and 450 enlisted Major O. Markle commanding.
600 patients were on the main hospital and a great past post was about a mile away. 3,000 troops, two supply depots and more than 200 Spanish prisoners were in camp nearby. Not only were the camps
crowded, but they were also in filthy and unhealthy condition foll-owed their previous occupancy by Spanish students. The regiment camped with the sick.
A Glorious Record.
The need for sixty-five men as nurses for the pest camp, where yellow fever patients were dying without attention, and seventy other men for hospital duty as nurses, cooks, burial parties and attendants, wa smade known and volunteers were called for to fill these dangerous posts. They were establishing glory of the 24th, practising the entire regiment stepped forward, not even hesitating in the face of a possible horrible death from the plague. As July came to its close, the yellow fever had overran all camps. Surgeons, nurses and hospitals stewards were stricken, and sick and well within a radius of fifty feet. One officer of the 24th had died, two others were expected to die, and three others were stricken. Five others were sick. Of the sixty-five enlisted men sent to the camp, the majority had succumbed, their places being filled by volunteers.
Of the 456 soldiers of the 24th who marched to Siboney, not a complaint was heard from officer or enlisted man. The regiment finally marched on August 26 en route bak to the United States. Regimental colors were flying and be in uniform. The officers and 456 enlisted men there marched only 9 officers and 198 men.
Aguinaldo's Capture.
After ten months in 14th and Wyoming, the 24th, except for Co L, spent three years—1899 to 1902 on duty in the Philippines during the Philippine Insurrection, and it was through an officer of the 24th, Lucent, James D. Taylor Jr., that information was secured enabling Gen. Funston to capture the famous Agamalu, During his period. Company L was on duty in Alaska.
Until 1905, the regiment was stationed at posts in Montana, returning to the Philippines in December of the year for its second tour of foreign service. Returning to the United States in 1908, the regiment was stationed at Fort Ontario and Madison Barracks, N.Y., remaining there until 1911, when the third regiment made, staying there until September, 1915. Five months were spent at the Presidio, San Francisco, then to Wyoming, New Mexico, and the Texas border. The 24th marched into Mexico on March 28, 1916, and remained south of the international border until February 5, 1917 with headquarters at Dublin, Mexico.
After service in New Mexico and another trip into Mexico to drive Villista forces from Juarez to San Antonio, the spring of 1922 was ordered to its present station at Fort Benning, Ga., or duty with the Inantry School.

REV. R. CARROLL,
EMINENT BAPTIST,
DEAD IN COLUMBIA
Outstanding Minister In
South, Was Honored By
Three Presidents
Columbia, S. C.-Rev. Richard Carrol, prominent minister, died at his home in Columbia at 9:45 o'clock Wednesday morning, October 30, while the Colored State Fair was observing "Founder's Day," in honor of him as organizer of the fair.
Rev. Carroll who was one of the South's outstanding Baptist preachers and educators, died at his home on the Barhamville road, about two miles from Columbia. He had been in declining health for five years, having suffered a stroke of apoplexey.
Honored By Presidents
Rev, Carroll's ability was recognized by three Presidents of the United States. He was appointed a chaplain in the Spanish-American war in 1898; by President McKinley, serving in the 10th U. S. Volunteer; he and the late Booker T. Washington, were the only Negroes invited by President Roosevelt to attend a child welfare conference in Washington in 1909; he was offered the position of Minister to Liberia by President Woodrow, Wilson. Rev, Carroll declined this honor.
Rev, Carroll was born November 14, 1870, in Carroll Hill, Barnwell county. He received his education at Benedict college in Columbia and Shaw university in Raleigh, N. C.
He founded the Industrial Home for Negro children in Columbia, which has since been merged with the Industrial School at Jroma.
Organized Fair
Rev. Carroll was responsible for organizing the South Carolina Negro state fair about 26 years ago, an organization that has grown and developed to large proportions since that time. He also organized the Race Conference to promote good will between the races in the South, being president of the conference which brought to Columbia many distinguished white and Negro leaders. In 1903 he was appointed chapman of the Colored Battalion, National Guard of South Carolina, with rank of captain. He retired as major under Governor D. C. Huey. He campaigned for Pre-ident Woodrow Wilson, and after the election of Wilson was offied the position as United State minister to Liberia through Senator Tillman. He was unable, however, to accept this post.
Buried Friday, November 1
Surviving are his widow and four children, Corriie J. Carroll, Ruth Bramard Carroll, M D Seymour Carroll, field secretary of the American Humane Education Society of Boston, Mass, Mary Crozer Carroll, teacher in Benedict College, all of Columbia, and Enrique Carroll White of New York City. A sister and several brothers also sasst him. Funeral services were conducted from the First Calvary Baptist church at 3:30 o'clock Friday afternoon, November 1

THE NEW YORK AGE
Tantrums are emotional outbursts. If the safety valve of a steam boiler is not kept open, the accumulated force of the confined steam will explode the boiler. The emotional energy of children is oftimes confined or hampered by parents, who insist on exerting their authority at all times. Use is not made of the safety valve of intelligent direction. So the accumulated thwarting of the child's native and acquired impulses breaks loose the bonds of self-control in the form of an outburst of anger or a tantrum. We cannot carry this illustration further. But this should be sand: in place of the tantrum we may have stubbornness, or sublimities. The emotional outburst is controlled probably through fear of corporal punishment. Much greater harm is done to the child's personality by this form of behavior, and, moreover, it is much more difficult to handle.
We do not wish to be understood as advocating that a child should always have its own way. We are equally certain that parents should not always have their way either. Tantrums are not evidences that Johnny "is like his father," rather than Johnny's home control has been properly applied. As children become more and more conscious of themselves as individuals they naturally seek to express their power and independence. Now, because we must live our lives in company with others, we must learn to adapt our desires and actions to others.
This the child does not understand—his social obligations. An only child, all other things equal, is more likely to have taintrums than one brought up in a larger family, or who has opportunities to play frequently with other children. The latter more quickly learn the value and meaning of mine and thine, of what it means to do because someone else has rights and privileges also. A child who has had opportunities to test himself with others may have an exaggerated or false notion of his own abilities. He may act as though he wants he must have when he wants it. Or being alone most of the time he may be backward in expressing himself in a group.

TANTRUMS
---
thwart or prevent his self-expression may be the forerunners of emotional upsets. Any physical defect, such as over fatigue, malnutrition, or onset of an acute disease, may predispose the child to a tantrum. Some form of tantrum is a natural form of expression when the child is two or three years of age. By the time he is five or six he can be so trained as to not have tantrums, nor to have his way always, either. Our demands of the child should be few and conditioned by necessity, such as arise at mealtime, or bedtime, or danger. Our demands should be gauged by the child's ability to respond and his intelligence to understand.
Most tantrums should be disregarded at the time; particularly of we have reason to believe that they are the child's uncles of gaining attention. But as the tantrum is a source of underlying fault in training it, should we make for the error after the storm has subsided.
W. Va. State College Making Real Progress
Institute, W. Va.-West Virginia State College represents the State's biggest effort at training Negro youth and attracts the favorable attention of unbased educators throughout the country. Twofold indication of recent progress of the work here was the admission of the college last year into the Association of American Colleges and its inclusion among four Negro colleges whose premedical work is acceptable to the American Medical Association.
This year's enrollment breaks the record for the regular session. In the college, 546 resident students are enrolled, coming from states as far distant as Massachusetts, Oklahoma and Alabama. In the Institution's Service Plan of Education 18 students are enrolled. Forty three teachers in service are enrolled in extension courses conducted by the institution in Charleston and Montgomery. The teacher-training high school enrolment numbers 127, making a total resident enrollment of 734. The department of education, has returned to his duties after a year of study at Harvard. Miles Jefferson, librarian, G. D. Brock, professor of physical education, and I. L. Mokenzie, professor of history, are on leave and studying at Columbia, Harvard and Columbia, respectively.
A gift of $1,500 from the Johns Rosewald school, the second such gift within two years, has been obtained for the purchase of library books.
Bids will be asked on the new vocational training building for which the last Legislature appropriated $120,000, and for which the architect's plans are rapidly nearing completion. The building will be one of the most modern of its kind in construction, materials and equipment.
