RESTAURANT Weston Is Shot By 1 of 3, While Drinking Soda; Men Escape The police of the West 135th street station, under Detective Sullivan, are investigating one of the most mysterious murders Harlem has had in some time. Major Don Weston, 24 years of age, a porter, living at 400 Manhattan avenue, was the victim. While drinking a soda in the restaurant of Louis Clurhan at 356 West 145th street about 12.40 Monday morning, Weston was fired on from behind by one of three unknown men, all colored. He died before he could be taken to Harlem Hospital According to Mr. Clurhan the three men entered the restaurant and without any word opened fire on Weston and then killed. Weston was pronounced dead by Dr. Fugazy of Harlem Hospital. According to relatives, Weston did not run with a gang and they knew of no enemies he had. 9-Year Old Child Dead From Alcohol Lillian May Ross, 9 years old, of 590 DeKalb avenue, Brooklyn, died Friday, January 3, from acute alcoholism, according to a report made to the police at the Gates avenue police station by Dr. Ings of Beth Mosea Hospital.

Accompanied by her daughter, Mrs. Nellie Graves, of 124 West 114th street, Mrs. Grant was about to step into a taxicab at the corner of 132nd street and Lenox avenue. The daughter had left her mother for a moment to do an errand in the corner drug store and as she was hurrying back to enter the cab, she saw her mother collapse to the ground, exclaiming, "Oh her!" Mrs. Grant was taken to the Harlem Hospital, where every attention was given her, but the wound caused her death eight days later.

Harlem Has Quietest New Year's Celebration in History; Police Compare Records of Past 2 Years Believe it or not, Harlem was the most orderly section of New York City in its gay New Year's celebration, January 1. According to its reputation the number of night clubs and theatres in this section, the New Year should have been ushered in as riotous an ddisorderly manner as in any section of the city. Perhaps those who were on the street who saw the crowds and heard the noise, were under NEGRO EDUCATOR NAMED FOR FEDERAL SURVEY Washington, D. C.—President John M. Gandy of the Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute at Petensburg, Va., was named as one of the 30 educators to aid in the nationwide survey of secondary education which is now in progress, according to an announcement made by Secretary of the Interior Wilbur who made the appointments. In announcing the committee, Secretary Wilbur said that a second committee, consisting entirely of laymen will be chosen. The two committees, one of laymen and the other of educators, will pass upon work of the survey commission which is in active charge of the survey, criticizing it both from the viewpoint of trained educators and from that of the average citizen. Both groups will review the final reports. The survey, for which Congress authorized an appropriation of $250,000, and made the first installment of $50,000 available for the current fiscal year, is proceeding steadily under the direction of Commissioner of Education William J. Cooper, Secretary Wilbur said. BEN DAVIS AGAIN SHOT AT IN ATLANTA Atlanta, Ga.—Ben Davis, militant editor of the Atlanta Independent, and former Republican National Committee for Georgia, who reported to police about a month ago that he had been mysteriously shot at while in his home, has reported another attempt on his life. According to police, Mr. Davis reported that ten shots were fired into his bedroom. TWO KILLED BY AIRPLANE CRASH IN TEXAS Hearne, Texas—A barnstorming airplane crashed into a holiday crowd at the flying field here Sunday afternoon and killed two youths, both colored, and injured two others, one probably fatally. The pilot of the plane was a 17-year old girl, Miss Dorothy Stocker for Houston. The dead boys were Kelsey Hearne, 7, and James Hearne, 9, sons of John Hearne of this city. The injured were Dock Wright, who was badly hurt, and a son of John Webster, whose first name was not learned. The latter sustained injuries which are expected to cause his death. NEGRO DETECTIVE KILLED BY BANDIT Pittsburgh, Pa—Surprising three robbers at work, Detective James Hughes, Negro police officer, was killed in a pistol battle with the holdup men. 920639A PHILADELPHIA BUTCHER KILLED IN HOLUP PHILADELPHIA BUTCHER KILLED IN HOLDUP Philadelphia, Pa.—William Brown, 22, Negro, was arrested on a charge of murdering Josephmidt in his butcher shop in Chester. Philadelphia, Pa.—William Brown, 22, Negro, was arrested on a charge of murdering Joseph Schmidt in his butcher shop in Chester. Schmidt was shot down while his brother, Frank, aged 64, looked on with $225 which he had just put in his pants pocket after removing it from the cash register. When the bandits found no money in the register, one of them fired a shot, causing the death of the 60-year old butcher. A search resulted in the arrest of Brown on the murder charge. According to police, Brown confessed that he had participated in the holdup and killing, but insisted that his companion, who, he said, was Arthur Wilson, had fired the shot. But the records at the 38th Precinct show that there were no arrests for disorderly conduct, none for intoxication, not a broken window and no fires reported. The previous New Year's celebration resulted in two arrests for violation of the Sullivan Law (carrying a gun without a permit), three charges of disorderly conduct, two cases of felonious assault and one of grand larceny. In addition there were eight fires and eight broken windows reported. Credit for the order maintained this year is largely due to the common sense methods used this year by Captain John Bracken of the 38th Precinct and the men under his command placed the district. "Captain Bracken has his men that as long as the people on the street were just making noise and having innocent fun, they were not to be disturbed. He also realized that just the presence of the policemen would be a deterrent to minor crimes, so instead of having his platform clashed at midnight, an is the situation, he had the new platoon go off duty at 11.30 and those coming off duty remain on their post a few minutes longer than usual. In addition there were ten men on reserve duty who volunteered to put out the control streets for a few hours during the height of the celebration. This more than doubled the usual number of police found on the street at this hour of the night. Patrolman McMahon, who has been secretly to various captains at this precinct over a long period is its authority for the statement that this was the first New Year's celebration Harlem ever had.

Dr. Rudolf Rapp, assistant general medical superintendent, in charge of Harlem Hospital, said that there appeared to be fewer cases of alcoholism than in previous years, but that in some instances patients who had recorded physical injuries might have been entered as suffering from the paraplegia, such as a fractured skull or lacerations, instead of from alcoholism. It was also developed that the hospital is crowded beyond its capacity in all of the wards. In the endeavor to take care of all sufferers applying for hospital treatment, it has been necessary, in some instances, to place cots in the corridors, although every effort is made to have beds available for all patients. It is believed, as indicated by the law record, that the flood of alleged liquor available to the inhibers, is of better quality than was to be had in the beginning of the prohibition era.

Junior High School is one of the most popular places in the whole building. There the girls buy a delicious and nutritious lunch and enjoy it while chatting with classmates. A group from the home-making classes help serve each week—the service is excellent, the lines move and each girl has a comfortable seat to table. The girls appreciate very much the new aluminum trays, attractive dishes, better silver and the paper napkins which a few months ago replaced the old service. The food is of the highest quality, well prepared, daintily served and sold at cost. No dish costs more than five cents, cookies, crackers and wholesome candies may be purchased for a cent each or cheapest vegetables, salads, fruits, sandwiches and butter, milk, cocoa, puddings, gelatine and other appetizing foods constitute the menu. A girl may choose a hot dish, bread and butter, cocoa and two cookies or chocolate bars for 12 cents—thus assuring herself of a wholesome, nutritious lunch from a clean kitchen, served in clean dishes at the lowest possible figure. Occasionally, the home-making classes contribute a dainty salad or dessert when there is a rush for that, on the part of teachers and pupils. The cafeteria is meant to serve mainly, the girls who live too far away to go home for lunch and also those who have no one at home to prepare lunch for them. But everyone enjoys it—and how I WOMEN'S EVER READY.

MINISTER TO LONG ISLAND INDIANS RETIRES AFTER 40 YEARS Minister To Long Island Indians Honored By All Races As He Retires After Forty Years In The Ministry Rev. Thomas C. Ogburn, Presbyterian, Served Indian Presbyterian Churches at Southampton For Twenty Years In Two Churches By Lester A. Walton In New York Sunday World.

Religious antagonisms, burning for a decade in the Shinnecock hills and valleys of Long Island, have been extinguished. Once again Negro and Indian communicants are extending the right hand of fellowship. As the old year was passing into oblivion, church differences were bridged at an unusual testimonial and reception tendered the Rev. Thomas C. Ogburn, retiring minister of Bethel Presbyterian Church, Southampton, L. I., participated in by three racial groups. The Rev. Mr. Ogburn is a Negro education. He was graduated from Lincoln University in 1880. For forty years he has been in the ministry, most of which have been devoted to serving as spiritual adiors in the colored people of Southampton and environs. Having reached the age limit he leaves the pulpit on a small pension. Ten years ago the Rev. Mr. Ogunlew was the central figure in a church split between Shimneck Indians and Negroes. Every faction wanted to claim him as his own and the rest grew wider. Not until the second retirement did the proximalized peace appear as possible. Had Large Membership for twenty years he preached and taught in the Southland, as principal of Richard Allen Institute, Pine Shuff, Ark. Then he came North to take charge of the Presbyterian mission on the Shinchock Reservation three miles West on Southampton. His wife, Mrs Latha Orpham, a graduate of Scotia Women's College, organized in North Carolina in 1807, resumed her work in the classroom as teacher of the little school maintained for the Shinchock tribe by the State of New York. There was no other house or worship on the reservation and the mission's membership was large. Attendance at services was swelled by the presence of Negroes from the Village of Southampton, who were gracefully welcomed. Under the Rev. Mr. Ogubu's guidance the affairs of the church progressed until the folks from the village expressed a desire to become active members of the congregation, instead of just visitors as hitherto. As to what should be the status of the Negro worshipers became the controversial rock on which the communicants ultimately split. The majority of Indians looked with detainment on giving full membership to any one outside of the tribe. They opposed any sue plan, preaching that Negroes from Southampton might join the church in appreciable numbers, and wrest control from them. Nothing should be done to prepare the undfided authority on the Shimaneck on the Restoration they maintained. He did not reached a dramatic climax when, after many months, upon the Rev Mr Qoilburn requested as minister and gave power of establishing a church in the Village of Southampton. Among the men to identify themselves with Bristol Presbyterian Church were Shimcocks who refused to transgress their allegiance to a new pastor. Mr. Cain designed as teacher the St. Mary's school, accepting a similar position with the Poospuckstaff whose reservation is a mile north of Mottis Ferry. The Poospuckstaff were intermarried with Newcomers and the Shimcocks are still discharging. Some men provided by Purse of Gold Is Given Him.

Thomas C. of Bethel Presbyterian L., participated in by three LEAVING PULPIT The Rev. Thomas C. Ogbura alive, often flaring into acrimonious debate. When the news was circulated that the Rev Mr. Oglirn was about to quit the ministry, a movement was started to raise a pulse of gold as an evidence of the community's willingness to support the last twenty years. Indians and Negroes, ignoring religious differences of the past, cheerfully contributed. So did a goodly number of white citizens. The gold was presented at the testimonial and reception by Allen Fallings of Minola executive of the North Harlem Division of Boy Scouts, who presided. Two prominent white clergy spoke appreciatively of the returning minister and his wife. They were the David Garrick Smith of the First Fremont Church in Southampton and the Rev II. Hoyer of the Bridgehampton Presbyterian Church. Young Indians Sing. The most enthusiastically received social selection was rendered by three members of the Shinneck tribe from the reservation the two daughters, and son of Mr. and Mrs. Emnett Crippier Charles Bunn, best known Indian guide on the island, spoke and his daughter, Marjorie Church, is one of the three followed the Rev.

Mrs. Belvelyn Moore of New York and Southampton presented the guest of honor with a basket on flowers on which were pinned ten stalks, representing his length of service at Bethel Church. Mr. Occhinnu was the recipient of a large box of flowers. The Rev. H. R. Criant, pastor of Bethel Church, spoke at Zion Church at Bethel Church, spoke at the Negro ministers of Long Island. There were other speeches and musical numbers by Negroes and Indians including a solo song by Jerry Marshall. The Shinnecock Indians of Long Island afford an interesting study to students of ethnology.

Less than 250 feet on the reservation. The practice of intermarriage with those of Negro blood on our land and a Shimekou one is debatable from an ongoing trial prosecution.

In last Sunday's New York Times there appears a letter written by one James Denson Sayers of New York City, who identifies himself as author of a book, "Can the White Race Survive?" who states that he has studied ethnology and history his major study of twenty years. Sayers proceeds to elaborate upon Dr. Cole's opinion, attributing a mixture of ethnic cultures to the work of the white type and that declines of those cultures invariably resulted from adjustment of the black type. This self-styled savant proceeded to build up a theory of absolute superiority, to the Capitan of Canastan with the obvious sequence that the Proto-Negro is the interior. He then answers in advance that possible citation of Oriental culture as a proof of the quality of the darker faces by saying that the builders and master of ancient China were white-skinned Canastan, and names Dr. Nee, a famous modern Oriental as mary's pure Canastan. He blames race mixture as responsible for the decadence and its consequence in his argument by asking, "History and contemporary studies show that progress suffers when the white blends his blood with the black, we can not work to prevent the leveling of humanity into a retrograded mongol mass." 100 Back Quit Hurting "T in the spring (about 1924).

SATURDAY, JANUARY 11, 1930. A new elephant has been enlisted in the struggle to put an end to lynching whether it is committed in the Southern any other section of this country. The International Labor Defense for the Southern district with headquarters in Charlotte, N. C., has entered into a fight against mob law, with the slogan Down with lynching and lynch law, to the International Labor Defense, which maintains that the relentless struggle against lynchings and race oppression is a major part of the struggle of the International Labor Defense in the South. In a recent news release, which is propaganda for the movement to combat white and black workers against South, capitalists under the banner of communism, attention is called to the lynching of Willie McDaniels, a Negro worker, near Charlotte on the night of June 29, 1929. It is alleged that McDaniels was lynched by a "mob of hooligans" led by his boss,rence having been accumulated to the effect and suppressed by the authorities the statement asserts that witnesses of the crime were threatened with death and the lynchers were not punished. The sent scot free without any court even through the motions of some farcical mal. This may all be true, as similar cases have been reported in the Negro prison and again. Only a few years ago two women and a woman were taken from a lake in Aiken, South Carolina, and brutely murdered by a mob. The lynchers were well-known citizens but no one was punished for the crime, despite the acts of the New York World and the Columbus Record. In fact, the correspondents who gathered the facts for both perpetrators were threatened with injury or death. The remarkable thing about this new movement against lynching is that it is offered by an organization of communists, who use it as a means of uniting black and white workers, because methods have been used against the law especially to intimidate mill strike in North Carolina. The alleged lynchings and burning of white boys in Texas and Arkansas is also charged to criminal white capitalists for good measure. No element that is calculated to help at a stop or lynching should be debarronn enlisting in the fight against the downing, menace to our civilization, because the crusade of a communist movement that seeks to destroy lynch law as a form of "terrorism by the bosses" is bound to house suspicion, especially when it acts for the organization of "power industrial unions that take in all workers black and white alike." That would be laudable purpose, but it is almost impossible of achievement in view of the enormous race prejudice held by the white workers. It may be that the educational efforts undertaken by the communists may remove some of this race prejudice, but it will require more suffering from mob and lynch law to convince poor whites that they must unite with blacks for self-protection. Neither is the communist creed popular among the Negro workers of the South, if we are to judge by the tone of Negro newspapers. The Birmingham reporter recently declared that there was soil for communism in that section that those are far mistaken who do communism as a cure for any of them with which the race is afflicted. Theabama editor concluded that, "whichever may be odds against the under man America, he always has a fighting voice. So, as long as there is any hope with any semblance of a fair deal in the recruits for communism we negligible." Nevertheless, if the communists are nearest in their opposition to lynching, South should consider them a form of righteousness. A new element has been enlisted in the struggle to put an end to lynching, whether it is committed in the South or any other section of this country. The International Labor Defense for the Southern district with headquarters at Charlotto, N. C., has entered into the fight against mob law, with the slogan, "Down with lynching and lynch law! Build the International Labor Defense!" It maintains that the relentless struggle against lynchings and race oppression is a major part of the struggle of the International Labor Defense in the South. In a recent news release, which is pure propaganda for the movement to combine white and black workers against Southern capitalists under the banner of communism, attention is called to the lynching of Willie McDaniels, a Negro farm worker, near Charlotte on the night of June 29, 1929. It is alleged that McDaniels was lynched by "a mob of rich exploiting farmers" led by his boss, evidence having been accumulated to this effect and suppressed by the authorities. The statement asserts that witnesses of the crime were threatened with death and the lynchers were not punished. They went scot free without any court even going through the motions of some farcical trial. This may all be true, as similar cases have been reported iff the Negro press time and again. Only a few years ago two men and a woman were taken from jail in Aiken, South Carolina, and brutally murdered by a mob. The lynchers were well-known citizens but no one was punished for the crime, despite the efforts of the New York World and, the Columbia' Record. In fact, the correspondents who gathered the facts for both papers were threatened with injury or death. The remarkable thing about this new movement against lynching is that, it is fathered by an organization of communists, who use it as a means of uniting black and white workers, because mob methods have been used against the latter especially to intimidate mill strikers in North Carolina. The alleged lynching and burning of white boys in Texas and Arkansas is also charged to criminal white capitalists for good measure. No element that is calculated to help put a stop to lynching should be debarred from enlisting in the fight against that crowning, menace to our civilization, but the crusade of a communist movement that seeks to destroy lynch law as a form of "terrorism by the bosses" is bound to arouse suspicion, especially when it appeals for the organization of "powerful industrial unions that take in all workers, black and white alike." That would be a laudable purpose, but it is almost impossible of achievement in view of the rancorous race prejudice held by the white workers. It may be that the educational efforts undertaken by the communists may remove some of this racial prejudice, but it will require more suffering from mob and lynch law to convince the poor whites that they must unite with the blacks for self-protection. Neither is the communist creed popular among the Negro workers of the South, if we are to judge by the tone of the Negro newspapers. The Birmingham Reporter recently declared that there was no soil for communism in that section, and that those are far mistaken who offer communism as a cure for any of the ills with which the race is afflicted. The Alabama editor concluded that, "while there may be odds against the under man in America, he always has a fighting chance. So, as long as there is any hope to win any semblance of a fair deal in the game, the recruits for communism will be negligible." Nevertheless, if the communists are in earnest in their opposition to lynching, the South should consider them a force for righteousness. BISHOP HURST ON HAITI in considering the personnel of the mission to study conditions in Haiti has been suggested that one or more of the Negro race should be included Among the names mentioned was In considering the personnel of the commission to study conditions in Haiti, it has been suggested that one or members of the Negro race should be included, Among the names mentioned was that of Bishop John E. Hurst of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, himself a native of the island although a naturalized citizen of the United States with an American background. On this account, special interest attaches to an interview had with Bishop Hurst by a reporter for a Baltimore Sunday paper, which we find reproduced in the Herald-Commonwealth of that city. In the opinion of the Bishop, placing a colored man on the commission would add nothing to its influence among the Haitians, because they are not sufficiently race conscious to want one of their own race, rather than a better qualified white man. This may strike one as a somewhat surprising conclusion to emanate from such a source, but it is possible that it may have been warranted by the history of the Haitian people and government previous to the American occupation. Since the occupation, however, with the horde of Southern whites sent to Haiti to run the government it would not be unnatural for the native Haitians to have had their race consciousness accelerated. As Bishop Hurst said, it is also conceivable that the Haitians want the commission to comprise the fairest and most open-minded group of men of any complexion that the President can gather for that purpose. He declared that the greatest need of the islanders today was to get rid of army rule, whether it was, native or American. Civil government should be made supreme as soon as possible, with civilians in charge of the marines. He looked for the gradual withdrawal of the marines, perhaps in ten or twelve years, but in the meantime he maintained that they should be placed under a civilian commander. This is an admission that the government of Haiti must continue to be one of force, as indeed are most governments in Latin-America. The man who controls the army is the power behind the government in all South American countries, as well as in Italy and Spain, call him president or dictator, as you will. The American occupation has done nothing to train the native Haitians in the processes of democracy, all forms of popular government having been abolished to maintain military rule. Bishop Hurst was also quoted as saying that the occupation had done much good for the people of Haiti in a material way, but nothing to advance them morally and politically. He claimed that President, Borno and himself had been lifelong friends, but added that the trouble with the latter is that "he is too easily influenced by flattery. His heart is rather small." quoted the reporter as the Bishop's closing comment. This quotation may mark the end of a beautiful friendship, but it indicates the tone of candor that marked the Bishop's expression of his opinions. If Bishop Hurst should be named as a member of the Haitian commission and accept the mission, we may expect the same fearless expression of opinion. Whether he could enter upon such study and investigation with the open mind that he deems necessary, is not as easy to determine. REQUIREMENTS OF BUSINESS An interested and intelligent observer of the business situation in Harlem, which would apply to other centers of our population, said that the qualities most essential to business success were common sense, courtesy and salesmanship. With these three qualities, and sufficient capital or credit to present a good front to the public, the entrepreneur retailer should be able to establish a paying trade in most any line of necessaries demanded by the neighborhood custom. The immediate needs of the Harlem territory in the retail line were outlined as being a well-stocked shoe store, a merger of the best of the existing groceries under efficient management, and a furniture establishment able and willing to equip small apartments at moderate cost on instalments. There should also be a move to consolidate the beauty parls and barber shops, as the number of these establishments seems to have grown beyond the immediate needs of the population. A reduction of their numbers would enable them to install better equipment and lessen the overhead expenses. The same process might apply to the jewelry stores of which there are more than are needed, though good jewelry is regarded by certain classes as an investment and not as a luxury. Another prime need of Harlem was set forth as a modern hotel, well appointed and run on up-to-date methods. Several attempts have been made in this direction, but none of them have lasted long, despite the number of travelers constantly coming to New York and the large transient population. The difficulty in establishing a permanent hostelry to furnish acceptable housing at moderate rates for our people should not be insurmountable. As a complement to temporary shelter for travelers, there should be a tailoring establishment to furnish the raiment, in the shape of readymade or custommade clothing. Repairing and renovating should also be a feature, that would add to the profits of the business. There is also room, for more drug stores in Harlem, with reliable prescription departments, as well as the latest things in literature and the inevitable soda and sandwich counters. fact that medical presented to uphold conflicting sides or frequently renders dictory. It become paid opinion to be contention of either tiff or defendant, value as helping court to determine. The training of ist was criticised more or less chaos rapidity with whi But into all these enterprises must enter the elements of common sense, courtesy and salesmanship. The places must present a neat and attractive appearance and the customers or guests must be made to feel at home. In the matter of salesmanship, that does not mean that a customer must be induced to buy an article or accept a service that is not wanted or required. A satisfied customer or client is one who is made to feel that the article purchased or the service given is just what was desired. Hence the satisfied customer becomes a valuable advertisement. KEEPING HARLEM CLEAN. One of the resolutions that should have been adopted for the New Year, would be for tenants, landfords and property owners in general to enforce higher standards to keep Harlem clean, that is from a physical and sanitary standpoint. There is a lack of care and regularity in the disposition of ashes, garbage and rubbish, which results in dirty sidewalks and entrances to many of the apartment houses, occupied by people who in their own persons and apartments may manifest neatness and cleanliness of living. One of the resolutions that should be been adopted for the New Year, we want for tenants, landlords and property owners in general to enforce high standards to keep Harlem clean, that from a physical and sanitary standpoint there is a lack of care and regularity in the disposition of ashes, garbage and dish, which results in dirty sidewalks, entrances to many of the apartment halls, occupied by people who in their persons and apartments may many times be the sense of smell. The first impulse to attribute this failure to keep the sidewalks and entrances clean to the lack of efficient janitor service. The long sulking janitor in turn will charge the tenants with failing to arrange for the removal of household waste at the time and thus disrupting the schedule for removal. Sometimes dirty sidewalks may be the carelessness of the city collectors, emptying receptacles for ashes, garbage and spilling a generous quantity that process. However, with the covered trucks for removal and grinding exercise under the new Convention on Sanitation, that cause of colon promises to be removed. What needed is a greater cooperation on the part of tenants, janitors and owners in facilitating the removal of waste convenient intervals and with sufficient care to prevent spilling in the process. To do this, proper receptacles must be provided and emptied at regular hours as to obviate the necessity of their ing exposed on the street for too long time. While this disposal of household waste may appear to be a minor detail of housekeeping, it demands strict attention. The interest not only of clean streets and sidewalks, but of the health of the community. Good sanitation depends largely upon the prompt elimination of waste and the preservation of cleanness. This is as true of the neighborhood surroundings as it is of the human surface. Then, the outward aspect of the house and its environments is not too negared. Just as a man, or more particularly a woman, feels, the urge to act up to his or her attire, so a man will react to his neighborhood surroundings. A clean sidewalk and entrance in an apartment will help to inspire cleaning in its occupants. Keeping Harlem clean is not only a matter of health and sanitation, but active to good morals. This inconsistency between the tenants and the fronts of their dwellings may be due to a variety of causes, all perhaps small in their beginnings, but culminating to bring about the unkempt appearance which offends the eye and sometimes the sense of smell. The first impulse is to attribute this failure to keep the sidewalks and entrances clean to the lack of efficientjanitor service. The long suffering janitor in turn will charge the tenants with failing to arrange for the removal of household waste at the time set, and thus disrupting the schedule for its removal. Sometimes dirty sidewalks may be due to the carelessness of the city collectors in emptying receptacles for ashes and garbage and spilling a generous quantity in that process. However, with the use of covered trucks for removal and greater care exercised under the new Commission on Sanitation, that cause of confusion promises to be removed. What is needed is a greater cooperation on the part of tenants, janitors and owners or agents in facilitating the removal of waste at convenient intervals and with sufficient care to prevent spilling in the process. To do this, proper receptacles must be provided and emptied at regular hours, so as to obviate the necessity of their being exposed on the street for too long a time. While this disposal of household waste may appear to be a minor detail of housekeeping, it demands strict attention, in the interest not only of clean streets and sidewalks, but of the health of the community. Good sanitation depends largely upon the prompt elimination of waste matter and the preservation of cleanliness. This is as true of the neighborhood surroundings as it is of the human system. Then, the outward aspect of the house and its environments is not to be disregarded. Just as a man, or more particularly a woman, feels the urge to live and act up to his or her attire, so a tenant will react to his neighborhood surroundings. A clean sidewalk and entrance to an apartment will help to inspire clean living in its occupants. Keeping Harlem clean is not only a matter of health and sanitation, but conducive to good morals. UNNECESSARY OPERATIONS. UNNECESSARY OPERATIONS. The American Academy of Medicine last week made a report which laid bare certain abuses of professional conduct found among practicing physicians, which constitute a menace to the profession and affect the health and lives of many patients. It was charged that unnecessary operations are performed in certain New York City hospitals, and that some of the physicians and surgeons concerned in these operations and treatments are not adequately trained for their work. More than this, there is said to be over-charging of patients who cannot afford to pay high fees, and that fees are divided between specialists and general practitioners. The American Academy of Medica t week made a report which laid ba tain abuses of professional cond und among practicing physicians, wh ist institute a menace to the profession a fect the health and lives of many ents. It was charged that unnecess erations are performed in certain New ork City hospitals, and that some of physicians and surgeons concerned The present method of medical testimony in the courts was characterized as wholly unsatisfactory, from the viewpoint of the court as well as unbecoming the dignity of the medical profession. The fact that medical testimony is presented to uphold the two conflicting sides of the case, frequently renders it contradictory. It becomes merely a paid opinion to back up the contention of either the plaintiff or defendant, and of no value as helping the jury or court to determine the facts. The training of the specialist was criticised as being more or less chaotic, and the rapidity with which a physician can enter the ranks of the specialists was such as to render his title of little value. The idea that a few weeks or even months could qualify a young physician to pose as a specialist in certain diseases, was calculated to disturb public confidence in his ability. The practice of some of these quickly made specialists to offer to divide fees, if the general physician would send his cases to them, often constituted a fraud on the public and robbery of the patient.

George Foster Peabody Appeals to Wealthy New Yorkers For Aid To Negro Education The following is an appeal from the New York Sun, written by George Foster Peabody, business man and philanthropist, in the interest of Negro education: EDUCATING THE NEGRO. An Appeal for Aid to Promote a Worthy Object. To the editor of the Sun: I should be able to attention of men and women and their lawyers who are drawing wills to an oversight which I can only believe in in very many cases due to a lack of knowledge of actual conditions respecting most worthy, and to most needy subjects for wise consideration in the matter of bequests. I have noticed for a long time now, in reading the reports of wills probated and the distribution of essents leave anything for Negro education, and I have learned that leave such small sums that it seems evident to me that there has been no realization on the part of those making the will of the vital importance to the United States as a school education. A percent of our population sharply assigned by custom and law to the Negro race. We may recall Booker Washington's notable saying that the "Negroes were the only people who came to the United States with a mots urgent invitation that they follow this, their condition of slavery of both body and mind practically, and their being set free in the midst of a devastated land wherein the dominant white race was but slight-most urgent invitation that they came from the ownership of land, and even a that usually "land poor" and certainly equally poverty-striken by the deadly incubus, which the ownership of slaves puts upon mind, conscience and heart. It is the fact that today the vast majority of the white population in Southern states is poor in education, and many of them are not helped by thus to be "poor in spirit." This possession of power by the ignorant who are dominated by prejudice is, of course, equally dangerous to those having and those subject to it. Therefore the national opportunities for both the dominant and the unprivileged population. As 30 per cent. in round figures of the population of the United States resides in these Southern States, and of that. 30 per cent. nearly one-third are of the Negro race in relation of this Negro citizen's country is one of immeasurable because they, in effect, dominate through white primaries all the political activities of these sections and largely eliminate all fundamental political issues from consideration by the voters. Only in the instance of sumptuary legislation are manifest a definite consideration of issues from election to election. I think readers of this will realize that money wisely left for aid to the education of Negroes serves not only the beneficent impulses but the future welfare of our country. For the course, many efforts for educational assistance that are not wise because of the uncertainties of continuance. Therefore, aid that reaches unto the strengthening of the labor and over the spreading efforts of the materially poor Southern people in the education of the Negro is of largest benefit and eliminates the risk of waste most surely. Ennawal Fund, Jeanes Fund, Slater Fund, Phelps-Stokes Fund, American Church Institute for Negroes, the many Baptist Methodist, Presbyterian colleges and other church schools that cooperate with the State and local education officers, provide for the lover of his country and humanity to provide for this—I believe—most needy and most import- Recommendations were made for the study of public and private, hospitals and nursing homes, with a view to the improvement of existing conditions and the elimination of such abuses as worked to the detriment of the public. Especially strong was the sentiment that half-baked specialism and the over-charging of patients must be done away with. It is encouraging to find a movement like this for the protection of the public undertaken by such an institution as the New York Academy of Medicine which comprises some of the most distinguished physicians in this city. The practice of medline is a profession where so much depends upon the ethics and character of the practitioner, that only those who strictly observe the Hippocratic obligation, can be relied upon to do justice to their patients. ant subject of beneficence—the education of the Negro 10 per cent. of the population of the United States. I have had the privilege of active relationship with many education boards and therefore have personal knowledge which I believe justifies my urging the consideration of this subject all of those who are making the wills particularly those who are privileged to draw the wills for their clients.. GEORGE FOSTER PEABODY, Saratoga Springs, January 2. A Worthy Leader Editor of The New York Age: It must be most gratifying, indeed, not only to your constituency, but to all straight-thinking, forward-looking Afro-Americans, of all political faiths, to know that he has in you a leader worthy of the name. This is an age of political diplomacy, an age in which leaders are made and destroyed by their masters. A man, candid, open frank, who has the courage of his convictions, utterly devoid of superciliousness; a man who has morally grown up with the same time knowing 'full well that he is committing the unforgivable sin of bolting his party, is a rare character in our political life, but you are such a man, and you're remind of the late Theodore Roberts in you put your character and conscience above party regularity. I frankly challenge contradiction when I say that I do not believe that there is another man among the self-styled leaders who would dare to do what you have done to him, and I am afraid, although looking astance at you, must admire your honesty and courage. You refused an alliance that would have perpetuated Grenhalt in power and in office; you boldly but barely, faced the enemy, and not only did he cause of his defeat, but you accomplished something more—you caused the political demise of his man "Friday", Harris, whom he nominated to defeat you as Alderman. It is hoped that other "Fridays" will help him refrain from attempting to do what Grenhalt's man "Friday" did. Political parasites, currying and eeking for any kind of political favor, should be driven out of politics, and there is no doubt in my mind but that you have reduced the number by one. You had the temerity to tell the "big Guns" of the world that you have harmony dinner that the old policy of dealing with our group was obsolete, un-American, intolerable, and would no longer be permitted by the New Negro. This utterance alone could only come from a real man. As a rule Negroes are somewhat inoculated with an inferior complex when in the press and big Negro, under such circumstances, has heretofere been regarded by the former as a more handy man for one of his group. Among our group in New York, you stand out as did the late Theodore Roosevelt in his party and in the Nation; like him, you are not an opportunist, ready to take off and advance the success you have achieved through the faith of your constituency in you. Such a man as you is like an oasis in a desert, and is certainly a welcome discovery for the tired, harassed, Afro-American whose throat has been long dry and husky in his hopes of thorough drink of political justice. So long as you are sincere in championing the rights of your people, you need have no worry about political exigencies; but a genuine leader never betrays his followers, regardless of the course others may take. His motto, like many of us, for instance, represents or, with them, will take whatever step that is right and feasible to obtain justice. Like Hannah when he sealed the Alps, looked down upon the balmy plains of Italy, you can now rest your arm, strengthen it with reinforcements, and prepare to move in the next National Election. Refusing to compromise with political trickery, refusing to sell, COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS ON THE SAYINGS OF OTHER EDITORS Citing 'certain civio' improvements as proof that the present municipal administration of Houston is more liberal than its predecessor, the Texas Freeman said: The Monteith administration, in a way, has done more for Houston Negroes in eight months than the Holcombe administration did in eight years, judging from the rest room recently installed at the hotel. The business made at Emancipation Park, where a sturm proof fence allaround that 10-acre tract has already been built and shrubbery and trees are now being planted. The Holcombe administration collected the Negro payers' money and it was in office, but it made a point to do but very little for Emancipation Park and, when it came to the Farmers Market, Mayor Holcombe made it point to cut conveniences for it, cut, while all other including not naturalized citizens; were amply provided for in the matter of rest rooms, toilers and other conveniences. The fact that such minor improvements as those mentioned are considered a remarkable concession, indicates the inadequate share of public funds apportioned to benefit Negro taxpayers in most Southern cities. Talking about preachers In the Wichita Negro Star, Miss Nannie H Burroughs paid her respects to the cloth in the following fashion: Presachers, as a class, are just about as human as men in other character-building professions. Some of them get as much pay; many of them more present; all of them get more dissecting and analyzing. The best ones-never get what they deserve and the crooked ones get away with too much. The fraternity as a whole get more secrets than the members of other International Orders of the Heiners of Men. Ministers occupy a more responsible position than any other class of men. They should therefore, be cleaner in character, more unseifish in purpose, more caring in character, more social-minded in spirit, devout in heart, and not lazy. Modern standards and conditions require that ministers fill their minds before they open their mouths. Ministers must be caring, those who have sight are not going to let the blind lead them. Ministers of today have super-human tasks to perform and they must not only be called of God and then trained in theology, but they must have special training in executive and administrative church work. Miss Burroughs added that it is the business of the laymen to help run the church, and that "dumb deacons" have gone out of style and trustees who cannot read and understand, cannot be trusted." In presenting its fifteenth annual holiday member the California Eagle of Los Angeles printed the following greetings to its readers and a word to the wise among the advertisers: We are presenting to our readers our 50th annual holiday number, and with it we wish for every one the greetings of the season. At the same time we call attention to our readers and well-wishers for our continued progress in the various communities which we serve. We appreciate more than words can tell the confidence and continued support of the people. We especially ask of our readers due consideration to each hand they whose name appears in this issue. It is with perdonable pride that we point to the fact, that every line of type, the construction and make up of this paper is the genius of bank boys and black girls, who are each hand paper as we go forward we would fail to consider any advancement without making places for our boys and girls; We therefore propose to go forward in unselfish devotion to serve the role in the future as in the past and eternally stand for progress your race for a mess of political pottage, refusing to soil your character with an assinine political alliance, refusing to retreat when death, death, refusing to equivocate, your deed most deserving of any political honors that your constituency may see fit to bestow upon you, you have the fullest and most eager opportunity of the young, New Negro, Voters The Irish-American, Italian-American, Hebrew-American, German-American, all, are represented in offices by members of their group if districts they dominate, in power. The Republican party has consistently denied full representation to our group. You have served notice on the Grand Old Party what to expect by a continuation on the policy and you can rest assured that we will least cooperation of the majority of your own racial group in the Republican party. We have long been the victims of political anochrism and the Grand Old Party would perpetuate that issue. We have notified the party that japaposition is no longer a reliable criterion of things political and in its future dealing with our group our share of political recognition must be in proportion to our political strength within the party. ARTHUR G. SHAW 2588 Seventh, Ave. New York City ADVERTISE YOUR FURNISHED ROOMS IN THE NEW YORK AGE Saturday, January 11, 1936 along the lines which has brought us safety thus far. Our recent survey of Los Angeles recalls that of the 70,000 colored ones over half of them. It knows them and is known by them. It has lived to see this 70,000 grow from a few closets. It has witnessed the growth of Los Angeles from that of a new city to the Metropolis of the Pacific Coast. It lives to see those who are babes in 1809 into great great grand-dads of 1929. In plain, the Eagle grew up with the city and there grew in it a strength of character and personality that are peculiarly its own. As a matter of fact, the Eagle ages to have kept pace with the amazing growth of the community which it serves. The Voice of Ethiopia, hailing from Montgomery, Ala., with the announcement that it will be published weekly after January 1, expects some results from the President's Crime Commission. It said Mr. Hoover did a good job in his message to Congress which leads us to believe that instead of twaddling with the race-question on paper, at most of his predecessors have done the same in deal with the fundamentals first and take the issues in logical order. As obedience to the law is a prime requisite in making a good citizenry, Mr. Hoover has concerned himself to the extent that he has named a Crime Commission to deal with thever's crime commission functions, all of the national ill will be exposed and erased and the race question will be solved. But, we have yet to see what this much needed commission is going to do. The crowning achievement of Mr. Hoover's is that all Americans "obey all laws." It is to be hoped that the sanguine expectations voiced by this Alabama editor will be realized. Too often the work of a commission ends with its report, which is pigeonhole and forgotten. Discoursing on "The Use of Credit" as an aid to business the Chicago Whip sagely said: Credit enables business to secure commodities and offer them for sale. It permits of larger buying power. It gives the business man a chance to up his profit from destruction when the inevitable dead season comes around. It allows the business man to expand and secure new capital. Credit is the edge that the white man has over us. It is the great advantage of being able to affordly to stifle growth and throw us into bankruptcy and failure. When a business of ours becomes insolvent as a rule it is forced to fail, but when a white business, becomes insolvent its credit is extended. Credit is the peculiar successful magic that we must secure. Credit can be developed by honesty, punctuality, regularity and a volume of business. The cards have not been stacked against us to prevent us from getting a solid foundation in business. We credit and made it gilt-edge and atright. In the next fifty years we must launch in more diversified lines of business endeavor, and the first thought of those who would succeed must be to establish and preserve credit. The colored cards of americas must make his credit good. When credit is established it must be maintained by using it with prudence and discretion. Too great reliance on credit may lead to an over-extension of operations on an insufficient capital which may lead to disaster. --- Disagreeing with the Louisville Board of Park Commissioners, as to the desirability of an order barring colored citizens from the city parks the Louisville Leader said: For more than thirty years, we understand, right here in Louisville the white and colored people have had their picnics, outings and pleasures in all of the city chains in the desire or intimation of one race or group to infringe upon the right privileges and pleasure of the other. During all these years, and for the most part under Democratic rule, there has never been the least cause to bar colored people from any city parks. The opinion of some individual or group that it was desirable and safe. Negroes of this community have never desired to have their pleasures in certain playgrounds, and in the swimming-pool in Crescent Hill, but they do desire their rights, privileges and pleasures in the public parks. Migrants keep apart by the officers of their federal national use of color, creed or previous condition of servitude. No city in the nation so situated has made so much progress as Louisville during the last few years under an aggressive and progressive administration, and no city enjoys a better relationship between the race which gets better six years, and guarantes a better relationship in a public park, instead of a feeling and trouble between the races, which did not happen twenty years ago. The one thing which puts a blot on our fair city and embarrages and shames us when we face those to whom Louisville has been boosted, the order against colorism, the visitation which is not only against the law, but is unwarranted, unfair and should be knocked into a cocked hat. This retrospective policy in a city like Louisville is a dying kick of the ultra Bourbonism of the South, which learns nothing and forgets nothing. If permitted to stand it will not help to better correlations. CHURCH AND RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES Saturday, January 11, 1930 Rush Memorial Church An old-fashion revival began at Rush Church Sunday morning. The Rey, Gear Geary of Charleston, S. C., is the preacher. The Rev. Geary chose as his theme "Salvation's offer." Speaking to a brewery he brought home with in-valued forces the point of the message, he said salvation is free; the price was paid on Calvary. The forceful and impressive way in which the message was delivered stirred the whole church. At the close of the service, 6 persons united with the church. At the 3 o'clock hour, Holy Communion was administered by the pastor. A large number communed. At 8 o'clock, the Rev. Geary chose as his theme "Prayer," Psalms 31:2.

Using the illustration of the cleansing of the darter he showed that no matter how great the sins of man may be, the power of God is to cleanse it.

Olivet, was an inspiring message on the subject of "Faith. Among the many strong points brought out was that of allowing our wills to be entirely enveloped in the will of who we are.

Mrs. J. A. Loughry, the wife of brother Doughry, and a great gospel singer, will do the singing for these two weeks. The sunrise prayer service was an important morning. For once, it seemed, the Spirit had His own way. Then, at the morning service, the choir sang as though touched with hallowed fire, and the pastor preached the greatest ever heard in St. Paul on "Resent." The Sunday school swung into line with its budget made out, and plains for carrying it out adopted. Sister Claire Moore, the newly elected president of the Joseph Inomas, assistant general superintendent, were on the alert; and together with the superintendents or departments and teachers, sent the work on with a bang. The pastor held its meeting, with the choral singing, and the president called a meeting to arrange the budget for the year. The pastor installed the newly elected officers. The message was by the pastor on "Arise." At both services persons joined the church. Bethel A. M. E. Church At the morning services Sunday Betelain was filled to capacity, Dr. Clarke took his text from the Sunday school lesson. The topic, "The Churches of Jesus," found in the Gospel of St. Matthew, in the first chapter, Sixteen persons united with the church. Sunday was communion day. Over seven hundred communed. A duet, "Watchman, tell us of the night," was sung beautifully by Mrs. Lucille Jones and Elliott Sewell, soprano and tenor of the church. Dr. Clarke, at the evening service, still used the Sunday school lesson and will continue for the next six months. The topic was the three names of Christ. Dr. Clarke explained that Jesus came to earth to fill three offices, hence he had three names one single for each office. In exchanging the angels and Jesus the first name or given name, was told to Joseph by the angels in a dream before the birth of Jesus, and that it means Saviour. Christ, the name the Samaritans addressed Him by means Priest, or the anointed name He was called by Thomas, the name that only true Christians can call Him. Seven people united with the church.

Refuge Church of Christ Great throngs were attracted to the church on December 31. The main auditorium was filled and many were forced to stand in the assembly. The could room used for the church was not large enough to seat those who could not nud seating room in the main auditorium. Shortly after the guang room goos were opened the rushing crowds filled every seat. Sussequent to the church shape was altered. Lesser than the auditorium directed the crowd from the street down through the church hallway into the chapel, Elder X. G. White, an evangelist of the Church of Christ, Assembly preached. Using for his text, "I saw the dend, small and great, stand before God." The pastor, Bishop R. C. Lawson, followed Elder White and substantiated the sermon of Also he added many timely remarks. Henry Jones, a progressive young minister, preached the church of Christ, substantiated the guild room of the church at the last services of the year-1929. C. W. Jones and others conducted the services in the church crapel the same evening. The strangers came to the church on the evening of January 1. The pastor taught Public Bible Class. It was the evening of a thirty days Biblical revival. During which time the church members have pledged themselves to take one hour of the service each day. The project is so arranged that some one will be praying every hour in the night or day. The effect of these prayers are very readily felt in our services. The pastor used for his subject God and His covenants toward His people. At the night services so great was the crowd that extra sewerw put in the aisles to accommodate the large crowd. The crease and the main auditorium has proved to be too small. Concord Baptist Church As has been the custom for many years, Concord Church participated in the celebration services of the Emancipation Proclamation held at the Church, at 1 o'clock New Year's Day. As a result of the missionary efforts begun several years ago in the D. V. B. S., under the direction of the missionary Bishop, the Sunday school, Bishop, and Winston T.

Mrs. Evelyn Gray contributed some dresses. Bridge St. A. M. E. Church The pastor, Dr. Edward Ernest Tyler, delivered a special message to the members of the Sunday school at the morning hour. The officers headed by Superintendent Pillars, who were assembled together, the message was delivered in such a manner that the young children could comprehend it and at the same time it was replete with wholesome advice for the older ones. The teacher stressed One's Self (to the Father's Business). The text was St. Luke 2:49. Dr. Tyler stressed the thought that when Jesus Christ assumed human form he became a typical child. There is potentially as much diversity in each child as there was in Jesus Christ. He believed that just as Jesus' parents kept close to God and saw to it that their children kept close to Him, they must do likewise. Each child must contribute his part. It is the business of the home, the school and the address itself to saving the young people and thus save the world. At the close of the sermon, the Rev, W. N. Holt, evangelist, of Baltimore, extended the invitation to join the church and eight persons came forward. A twilight service was held from 7 to p. m. It was under auspices of St. Mary's College, well arranged program was rendered. Mrs. Gertrude Brawner was directress.

The flowers in the pulpit Sunday, December 29, were in memory of the Eugenia Tyler, the beloved wife of our pastor, who had placed there. Fleet Street Memorial A. M. E. Zion Church Another feeble attempt to aid in evangelizing the world was made by members of the Flent Street Church, a small special effort, the pastor, Rev W. C. Brown was the evangelist, assisted by the distinguished evangelical singer, Mrs. C. B. Franklin. The sermons practical, intelligent, and entertaining such impressive singing, the large groups in attendance at each service enjoyed a great spiritual feast. Those who were not connected with the church were so inspired that ultimately came forward for admission. The great call and challenge to service for the Master has without a doubt received a hearty response. A done, done, generosity in a true spirit, a genuine way. There is a finesse of worthy character and courtesy in notable degree all about us, and especially in the congregations attending services this church. And because we are the Master, and which count to our fellow men the world around, we believe with new confidence that this effort has played a large part in evangelizing the world. Splendid congregations were in attendance on Sunday and enjoyed the conduct by the leader and pastor, Rev. W. C. Brown.

The meeting was held under auspices of the Inter-Denominational Ministers' Conference, Rev. W. C. Brown, president. The feature of the occasion was the address delivered by Kight Rev. W. L. Kyle, bishop of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, in his discussion on the "Challenge of the Present Opportunity for Racial Development and Inter-racial Adjustment in American Life," every night and that go a long up our great country and in identity, though concluding the final adjustment of a just cause were set forth by Bishop Kyle. Bishop Kyles gave the finer angle from which to view the past and future. Said he, "It was a privilege on the Negro to be a part of a brand new day. It was a day of vision and hope—a day in there is a certain and positive deepening of convictions regarding what counts for most in the building our character. It ushered in the day of opportunity for organization of all the forces of the grace and the consecration of all its energies to the accomplishment; an opportunity for the adjustment of all questions effecting inter-relational relations and the ability to be brought to admit Christianity and the best of American goodwill to all peoples." Bishop Kyles paid high tribute to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, which organization has served for several years and the pulse of discontent with injustice. The bishop left no doubt in the minds of his audience about the part the church played and plays in moulding a righteous sentiment and a moral thought. He made a plea for the continuation of this teaching, until every Negro from highest to lowest is able to think, pray and work for a universal dominant racial attitude toward and acceptance of things which are derived by custom and law.

Miller's DESIRES Of 1930 HAPPENINGS IN THE REALM OF MUSIC By LUCIEN H. WHITE ROLAND HAYES SINGS AT CARNEGIE HALL Roland Hayes, tenor, gave his second recital of the season at Carpagie Hall Sunday afternoon. Mr. Hayes displayed his fine vocal powers and polished style in a program with the "Cara si, tu consumi," by Bononcini, and an air from "Sosarme" and "Pack Clouds Away," of Handel. He continued with airs by Arne and Howard, five German lieder by Brahms and, in closing, gave a group of spirituals. Mr. Hayes singing throughout his program gave evidently great enjoyment to his listeners. He added liberally to the printed list, and among the encores "Schubert's "Du bist die Ruh," stood forth for a piece of lyric singing seemingly perfect. His singing of this song with his delivery of the operatic "Sosarme" were, perhaps the high water marks of his recital. Percival Parham played the accompaniments beautifully. NEW JERSEYITES PAY, TRIBUTE TO WILSON LAMB, FOR MUSICAL WORK A splendid testimonial tribute in appreciation of the work he has accomplished along cultural lines in Orange and neighboring communities in New Jersey by Wilson Lamb, teacher of singing, during the past seventeen years, was paid him on Sunday afternoon, January 5, by members of the Musical Art Forum, composed of present and past pupils, and which meets weekly on Sunday afternoons during the concert season. It was in the nature of a surprise testimonial reception, and the plan was originated by David J. Lewis and Frank Murtha, second and first tenors, respectively, of the Wilson Lamb Male Singers, a group of which musicians who are being trained by Mr. Lamb. These men called on Mme. Bernerdene Mason, Mrs. Cora Wynn Alexander and Mrs. Alice Russell Micheaux for assistance in their conspiracy, and plans have been furtively put through during the past several weeks despite the fact that a number of unusual conditions conspired to arouse the curiosity of Mr. Lamb. The usual Sunday afternoon's program was in charge of Mrs. Alexander, and she had asked Mrs. Micheaux to serve a mistress of ceremonies. Invitations had been sent to a number of friends in the surrounding communities, inviting them to join in the testimonial and enjoining strict secrecy upon them. And so it was that the auditorium of the studio was crowded to an unusual extent on this occasion, there being approximately one hundred present. The program was of its usual nature, including a piano solo, "To Spring" (Grieg) by Mary Smoott; Quartet, "Swing Along" (Cook), by Wilson Lamb Male Singers; bass solo, "Calm is the night" (Bohm) by Clement Henry; soprano solo, "Till I wake" (Finder) by Reba Mayo, baritone solo, "Friede o'mine" (sanderson) by J. Cairney; contralto solo, "Slumber song" (Gretchaninoff) and "Gossip" (Dodge) by Mme. Mason; chorus, "Wade in de water" (Burleigh) by Wilson Lamb Ensemble; tenor solo, "Thora" (Adams) by Fred D. Moss; quartet, "The Tack" (Parks) by the Male Singers. Mrs Mitcheaux then announced that a luncheon would be served, but advised the guests that before that was done the real object of the afternoon would be announced. Then, in splendid and complimentary words, she referred to the work accomplished by Mr. Lamb, and called him forward amid thunderous and continuous applause. Mr. Lamb came forward and was greeted by Mr. Murtha, who was described as the instigator of the whole affair. On behalf of the members of the Forum and other friends, Mr. Murtha presented a substantial purse to the surprised guest of honor, who for several minutes was unable to give voice to his feelings. Finally, however, he recovered himself to an extent sufficient for him to tell in appropriate and well chosen words how deeply the testimonial had affected him. Each member of the Male Singers, Messrs. Murtha, Lewis, Carney and Clyde Emmons; Father Lewis H. Berry, Mrs. Robinson, Miss Julia Russell, Dr. Julia B. Johnson of Yonkers, Mke. Mason, David J. Lewis Jr., Messrs. Hagar and McFarland, pupils of Mr. Lamb; Mrs. Crite of Plainfield, Mrs. Fred D. Moss and Emory Harris paid brief verbal tributes to the maestro. Then the tables were arranged in the studio auditorium and the guests were served an ample and delectable menu which included Maryland turkey, cranberry sauce, rolls and butter, celery, pickles, olives. The dinner was prepared by Mme. Mason, a culinary as well as musical artist. During the serving of the meal, Mrs. Micheaux called upon Mr. Lewis sr., who read an original poem of interest and ment, dedicated to the guest of honor and entitled "Wilson Lamb—My Friend." It was cordially received. The tables were beautifully decorated with roses and ferns, adorned with rose colored candles placed in gold encrusted candle sticks. The studio itself was decorated with pompom carnations and potted ferns. Among letters received from friends who could not be present was one from the Rev. and Mrs. George M. Plaskett, of Orange and Montclair, extending the most sincere felicitations.

Fisk Gets Library Funds From Foundation Nathville, Tenn.-Following an award more, than a year ago of $400,000 from the General Education Board for a library and its endowment at Fisk University, the announcement is now made by President Thomas Elsa Jones that the Carnegie Foundation has made a pit of $50,000 for the purchase of "Common Cold Contagious And Stepping Stone To Many Maladies, Warns Dr. Wynne" "Common Cold Contagious And Stepping Stone To Many Maladies, Warns Dr. Wynne" Dr. Shirley W. Wynne, Commissioner of Health, sounds a note of warning against colds, pneumonia and influenza-maladies not infrequently due to failure of victims to take proper care of their bodies. Over indulgence in eating and excessive use of alcoholic beverages are also deprecated. "Every person should enjoy the holiday season, but we cannot stress too strongly the importance of moderation, especially now when diseases of the respiratory tract are so prevalent," says the commissioner. There are any injuries in adults in acute infections of this tract such as the so-called common cold, sore throat, influenza, diphtheria, bronchitis and pneumonia. The diseases of this group run together and even merge into each other, for they have many things in common. The common-cold, in the majority of instances, in reality is the stepping stone to much more serious maladies. Beginning as a sore throat, a running nose, or a cold in the head, it may lead to bronchitis, pneumonia, diphtheria, meningitis, mastoiditis and even a heart and kidney diseases. Many of these developments often prove fatal. Beware of Common Cold Were it possible for the medical profession to wipe out the common cold there would be an amazing decrease in the death rate from pneumonia, diphtheria, influenza and even from tuberculosis. As a matter of fact the individual is the only one wielding any power against the common, cold, and if each person will observe the ordinary rules of health, coupled with his own common sense, he can keep up his bodily resistance and take such precautions that he will rarely take cold, and even if he does that, disastrous consequences will be avoided. "Colds result from lowered resistance of the delicate mucous membranes of the nose and throat, causing them to become susceptible to the disease germs. Almost every well person carries cold germs in his nose and throat, but they can do no damage until the resistance is lowered. Keep House Proper Temperature "Wholesome living conditions are essential, not only should the house be kept clean, but the temperature should be kept between 65 and 75 degrees; a kettle or pan of water should be kept on the stove or radiator to insure sufficient moisture in the air and a window in every sleeping room should be partly open each night. Every child should have long books, and that $25,000 will be paid annually for ten years to buy books and periodicals for use of faculty members under control of the university library. The Rosenwald Foundation is giving $105,000, payable in sums of $15,000 for seven years, for current expenses of the library, and an additional sum of $10,000 for student and provided an equal sum is obtained from other sources for the same purpose before December 31, 1930, and that $10,000 of this sum be used as a revolving fund for student loans. Brooklyn Literary and Debating League Gives First Public Program Despite the inclementy of the weather, a large and colorful group attended the program of the Students' Literary and Debating League at the Community Centre of Brooklyn on Sunday afternoon, December 29. From all indications we energetic group of young men and women who comprise this organization spared no pains to make this affair most successful. The female members, who had control of the social end of the program, were at their best, and the male members accustomed themselves with as much credit in the execution of the literary part. The president, Wesley MacDonald Holder, began his address by indicting the Negro college men for their apathy and indifference to things which seriously concern the race. He said that the Negro college men of today do not assume the responsibility of leadership, they simply fiddle while Rome burns, and that it was necessary that they use their higher educa- hours of refreshing sleep; his bedroom should be so arranged that the evening activities of his elders will not disturb him'. His clothing should be warm enough so that his body never becomes chilled. Ex-ample, the clothes of young are better than heavy underclothes worn indoors and out. Over-indulgence in eating or in play should be avoided. "For the elders almost the same rules apply if they would avoid colds and the frequently subsequent influenza and pneumonia. First of all if one permits his bodily resistance to reach the point where the cold germs get the upper hand he should see his physician immediately and then go home and remain in bed until the cold has disappeared. To try to 'fight off' a cold with nostrums and patent medicines frequently results seriously. Over indulgence in alcohol, diction, or exercise "little" attention to bath frequently and failure to drink at least two quarts of water daily play an important part in lowering one's resistance. Holiday enjoyment, based on common sense, is good for all—but if abused, invites serious consequences. Keep Away From Others "Because the common cold is contagious those who suffer from this malady should keep away from other members of the family. Every one knows how a cold may run through a home, a class room or an office. It is well to remember that babies and young children are particularly likely to become seriously infected 'from what seems to be a simple cold in other members of the family. If every victim of cold would isolate himself for a day or two, or until the cold had disappeared, there would be no coughing and sneezing in the subways, in street cars, offices, theatres and other public places—and consequently fewer colds, for coughing and sneezing in public are perhaps the greatest factors in the spreading of the infection. "While we have been able to prevent diphtheria by the use of toxin-antitoxin; have virtually wiped out smallpox by vaccination; have overcome typhoid fever; have met with fair success in developing a serum for the treatment for certain types of pneumonia, and are gradually conquering tuberculosis, the medical profession has not been able to turb the common cold, a malady which brings a chain of illnesses in its wake and which causes more sickness and more absences from school and from work than any other disease. No, scientist, so far, has been able to isolate the common cold germ." dormitory of 91 bedrooms and for the new college classroom building at the Founder's Day exercises on February 9. tion for the advancement of the race. "Too probe are we," said he, "to look down upon the masses in a contemptuous manner, and to arrogate to ourselves the right of social criteria, meanwhile forsaking the bosom of our people and straining after the company and approbation of other racial groups." He said that the Students' Literary and Debating League was organized for the purpose of attempting to remedy the situation so that there will be effective leadership among the young and trained There were many musical selections and the artists who contributed were the Misses Elizabeth Perry, Anna Williams and Lilleth Gordon; Seifert Pyle, Morris Graham, Alexander Gatewood and the Criterion String Quartet of the Martin-Smith School of New York, William Singleton, Cyril F.

Back of that order lies a story. Valvhelale For year, porters, whose service operations have been confined to New Haven lines, have run only between these two railroad trem- jnals. Even before the parlor and sleeping service of this. road was taken over by the Pullman Company, the faces of many of these por- ters were as familiar to the road's regular patrons as were the interior decorauions of the old style parlor cats. These regular riders, in fact, knew moot of the porters so well that they addressed them by name, and looked upon them as part of their domestic retinie, ‘With the advent of the Pullman Company, this changed the order of things on the New Haven somewhat. New faces began to alight from the cars at Back Bay Station, And while these didn't supplant the oldtumers to any great extent, yet New England, being what it is, took notice of the change. However, there followed no outward pro- test against the invaders.- These attended to their business, so there vias nothing to complain about, Nevertheless, Back Bay had been in the habit of saying “Hello, Gene; good morning Dick, and how are you, Frank, and so forth and so on; 90 neither by precept nor by nature could it break its reserve towards the newcomers, even though they were only porters, Fortunately for most of these, the African disposition finally pre- yailed. New England eventually thawed out tinder its: benignant rays. The invaders likewise became to be known as Peter, John and James, "instead of the formal “porter.” Recently, one of these old New England riders in passing through the Pullmans of the Merchants Limited, the creme de la creme tains of the New Haven Railroad, noticed that not one of the cars which made up the train was portered by a familar face. The entire porter gew were all new men to him. The average traveller would hard- ly have given that phase of the service a thought much less take note of it. But this rider happened to be different from the average; {ur- thermore, he™was {rom the aristocratic Back,Bay section, To condense the story, several days later the following order emanated from the Pullman New York “office: “Regular porters on Boston trains will not be allowed to lay off or have their relief per- siods at the same time." Literally translated, the order is, old faces tues predominate on Pullen phos. between New SOAK snd Boston. BROTHER-IN-LAW INTROSPECTS “Among the 1930 letters received by this column is one from that hardy veteran, Andy P. Condy, called "Brother-in-law” by his rail- oad friends. The veteran says: . “Eduor, Things Seen, Heard and Done, Column: “From time to time you come in my mind, first, as an old friend, and, then, as the editor of a column which I enjoy reading. 1 am {re- quently in the mood to comment on some article you have written, but, like many others, 1 can talk much better than 1 can wnte, so the mood along that line 3s usually a fleeting one. I read the recent editorial in The Age about “Need For Mortgage Company’ in Harlem, and I think it struck the right chord as to the requirements of our people, not only im that locality but wherever Ne- grees reside in large numbers. “The manner.in which we people allow ‘opportunities to help ourselves and our children shp away, is not mere- ly disgraceful, it is tragical, AS a matter of fact, the economic conditions that confront us to- day are just one step aboye slavery, so far as doing anything worth- while in the realm of bustexs and. commerce. As a race, L am be- ginning to think we are a failure, We certainly are losing the con- fidence that was once held by other races that we would eventually come through. . “Harlem, stself, is one of the concrete proofs of our business iner- tia Here we have « community overrun with doctors, lawyers, caba- rets and real estate operators, yet aside from one or two of the latter, none in tHe array 1 have mentioned is of the tyne of activities to give emplovimgnt to half-dozen of our boys out of school; iunless, of course, at be the cabarets “OI course, it's the-old story, we put the Blame on the other fel- -low for our economic fetters. Wege it not sad, the censure would be laughable And we talk about education for our children. Well What's the use of educating them? Shortly, and we shall have a race of educators, but for what? Wat we need 1s 40 place more empha- 81s on business training and co-operation among our group, and less won professional aims and ambitrons, “Fsen an mvestment curporation, such as The Age spoke of, would he a start along: the right road. Especially, in the matter ‘of first and second mortgages, 1 am not in favor of third mortgages ay 2 business proposition, Bui, figst mortgages, as all realty men know, are velvet investments. “ _ “Speaking of mortgages, 1 went recently to the man who held a de.ond mortgage on my house and asked, tim show about its renewal. ‘Sure thing,’ he said, but when,he mentioned the bonus he’ wanted, J tad “You are a greater robber than Jesse James, for Jesse James only fode a horse an his yctaways. “By the way, J have an opportunity to place a young man, who is recently out of college; in position as shipping clerk with a substantial bus.ness firm, butbe must be 2 boy who 1s willing to start at the bottom, and bave some imuative ability.
