Venus is at its best on February 8 and to a moderate extent on the 1st and 3rd, those who have love to February 5. Venus also will feel the influence of this planet during the coming birthyear. Venus seems to have particular dominion over women and children, and brings contacts with women and children, and is a profitable way throughout the coming year. All the people born this week should try to use Feb. 8. It is a day of opportunities for those who can use rather good judgment, if the impossible is not expected, the week includes all people born and between February 1 and 8. The coming year for those born on February 1 will bring very important changes in material and emotional affairs to everyone. It will also bring the public office or to change the occupation, since the changes will result in serious loss of both reputation and money. Fortunately the people of today seem able to think for themselves, realize and try to keep what they have will profit well. New plans will not succeed. February 2, holds the same vibrations as February 1, for the birthyear, and those who do not want to remain gain from a financial point of view. Family affairs will be rather emotional and disturbing. A year for patience and 'perserverance' the health should be guarded, and it would be well to think before dealing with strangers. February 3 brings some very important family changes for the coming year, especially to those who are married. It does not seem much different as well as desired. The women of these date should be careful to guard their honor and reputation, for it is extremely easy to lose both their sense of purpose for their old plans and for renewing friendships to long standing. New friendships will need good judgement. Harlem C. M. A. Stores Now Number Twenty-Nine Hartlem C. M. A.

Some very important family changes are needed, a seem that an inheritance will be guarded. The health should be guarded. February 6 brings some very changes to every one in the coming birthyear. These changes are aimed at improving the institution and employment, and those who are employed should use the utmost good judgment in dealing with the superiors in the employ.

It will be my policy to be fair to all and give recognition to all elements." I believe that there is room to build, up the Republican party among all peoples." These were the dominant notes of a stirring address of Meier Steinbrink, the new Republican county leader, which was delivered before a large group of Negro Republicans at the Kings County Republi-cation Commune headquarters, 160 Montague street, on Wednesday evening, the occasion being the installation of Assistant Federal District Attorney Francis F. Giles, as president of the Kings County Colored Republican Organization. This office virtually carries with it the Negro county leadership. Mrs. M. C. Lawton was installed as vice-president. This office carries with it the leadership of the women of the county. The other officers were also installed by Mr. Steinbrink. To Hear From County Leader. Other points in the county leader's address were: The enrolled Republican workers are entitled to hear from the county leader from time to time. The Negro has a natural allegiance to the Republican party and should remember that in many states which are under control of the Democrats there is no equality for them under the law. The Republican party in the county should work among the young people and the women. We should bring out our best when we name men for public office. There is no difference between the Democratic party of bygone days than now. Steinbrink scored the Democratic party in the state and the city for corruption and rottenness in government. He closed with the statement that the pendulum will swing to the Republican party, and we will have clean government. He asked for the Negro Republican to support their chosen leaders and cooperate with them. Officers Are Installed. Upon the conclusion of the address, John H. Dickerson moved that a vote of thanks be given to the county leader. It is recorded by Clarence J. Holland and carried unanimously. This was followed by the installation of officers. They are F.

He took occasion to thank the organization for its support during his leadership. The other officers did likewise.

Jones Given Fine Welcome to Brooklyn By Bridge St. Church Congregation and Friends The Right Rev. Joshua H. Jones, presiding bishop of the First Episcopal District of the A. M. E. Church, preached at Bridge Street Church Sunday morning. At the evening hour a social hour was spent, at which time the members and friends of the church had an opportunity to meet the bishop. At the morning hour the pastor, Dr. Tyler, acted as master of ceremonies, and in making reference to the bishop stated: "The members of this church have the rare privilege of hearing and associating with one of the most profound thinkers in the race. Dr. E. H. Cott, secretary of Missions or the A. M. E. Church, was called upon to introduce the bishop. He not only repeated what Dr. Tyler stated but added that Bishop Jones is not only profound, but is a logician and versatile worker. He is a Christian gentleman in the fullest sense of the word. At the close of the service, Miss Elise Hurley, an elocutionist, joined the church. Miss Hurley is a native of Washington, D. C., but has lived in Chicago. While there she was a member of Quinn Chapel. She was a Sunday school teacher there. Dr. Cott Installs Officers. After the sermon, Dr. Cott installed the officers of the Sunday school. They are: John D. Nixon superintendent; C. J. Mosley, assistant superintendent; Mrs. George A Unique Invitation. Prior to his sermon, the Bishop took occasion to thank the pastor, officers, and members of the church for inviting him here to be their guest for all day. He stated that he came under "unique circumstances, for the manner, in which he was invited was the first time it had been done since he has been on the bench of bishops. His text was Genesis 11 4. He also referred to an associate text a part of Resolution 21. His topic was "Heaven as the Objective of the Soul." The bishop said among other things "Since time began the human soul has expressed a desire and a hope for a better place after death. This future state is heaven and it is the end of the journey for the faithful, holy and true. We must prepare for it by right living while here on earth. In the begone days men and women stressed the materialistic side of life more than they did the spiritual side. It is the same today. This is wrong. We must stress the spiritual above the material if we hope to make heaven our objective." Banks, who was at home on account of being sick, Mr. Banks was also chairman of the reception committee. It was the 35th annual affair of this popular organization Lorene D. Kennedy was secretary of the committee, and William Smallwood was treasurer The music was provided by Prot.

Mrs. Susan Ricks Is Asphyxiated In Bed Mr. Susan Ricks, 60 years old, one of the best known fraternal workers in Brooklyn and county leader of the Negro Democratic women of Kings County, was found dead in her bed on Tuesday, January 21. Death, according to Dr McGrath of the Cumberland Hospital, was caused by bumps escaping from a gas stove. It seems that Mrs. Ricks had put a pot of water on the gas stove and it boiled over, thus putting out the fire. She gashed the gas wheel she inhaled caused death. Mrs. Ricks, who resides at 47 St. Felix street, was the wife of Samuel P. Ricks, the downtown expressman. Funeral services were held at A fleet Street A M E, Zion Church on Friday evening. The pastor, Dr W C Brown, officiated. The spacious edifice was crowded with over 1,500 friends of the deceased.

Marrs from 22 St. Felix street, where he has been for over twenty-five years to 137 Decatur street, brings to mind the fact that he is, in the number of years of practice, Brooklyn's oldest Negro physician, or the dean of the profession here. Dr. Marrs, who is a native New Yorker, started the practice of medicine in 1890. Our reporter called upon him in his new residence where he and his charming wife make their home one day last week, and despite the fact that he is a son of one of Manhattan's oldest and best known families there was nothing of the "high hat" about the "dean." On Ohio Experience. In speaking of some Negroes who attempt to look over their less torturate brother, Dr. Mars told of once being in the State of Ohio when the late President William McKinley was Governor of that state. He saw Mr. McKinley walking down the street with two laborers, and he said to himself of the Governor of the State of Ohio could have that broad spirit, why could not he have the same spirit. Dr. Mars' son of the late J. W. Mars, was born in what is now the Borough of Manhattan, but was then New York City. His father conducted a place or business downtown in Manhattan. In the course of time they moved to Brooklyn and his father had the distinction of being the first state man to be nominated for the state Assembly. This was in the early '90s. He was defeated by a small majority. At that time the family resided on President street. In coming up in the Stuyvesant section, Dr. Mars leaves only about two physicians of the race in the downtown section. They are Dr. L. Williams and Dr. H. Jacobson of Bishop F. M. Jacobson, who, up to the time of being elevated to the bishopric of the A. M. F. Zion Church, was one of Brooklyn's best known physicians. They are several physicians in the Cumberland, Carlton and Classier avenue sections, such as Dr. G. M Hinkson, Dr. Edward Cunningham, Dr. Syney, Dr. Roland Johnson, Dr. Winey, Dr. Clance Richardson, and others. However the bulk are now in the Sunnyant section. Among them are Drs O. M. Waller, R.

FUTURE OF CITY GOVERNMENT The selection of city and county officials by partisan choice, backed up by a majority of the popular vote, does not always result in the elevation of the individuals best fitted for the job. Even when the selection of a minor town official is made, political pressure often backs a unfit candidate for the position. These self-evident truths have been strongly emphasized in some recent revelations concerning the conduct of city magistrates in New York, and the peculiar adducts issued by the mayors of such thriving municipalities as Wilkes-Barre Penn., and Rockville Center, Long Island. To take the most serious of these occurrences, which brought the last name down into the limelight of newspaper notice, Dr. Arthur D. Jacques, the health officer of Rockville Center, recommended segregation of Negro families in one section of the town and separation of white and colored children in the public schools. The ground for this proposal was the unanimary condition disclosed by a survey of the Negro section of the town. The utility of such a proposition as a sanitary precaution would be evident to the most casual observer, as there would be nothing to prevent the transmission of disease from one section of the town to another provided it was allowed to exist in the first place. The mayor of Rockville Center seemed to possess a trifle more intelligence than his health officer, as he was quoted as saying that residential segregation already existed and no new ordinance to lower that subject was needed. As to the separate school proposition, he thought that was a matter for the school board. The mayor further appeared to have some sane ideas as to the treatment needed to correct lack of sanitation when he said that the building inspector and the fire department had been authorized to enforce existing laws, landlords had been advised to clean up, and some buildings might have to be condemned. But neither of these two Long Island officials seemed to know, that under the ruling of the United States Supreme Court, and by decisions of the highest court of this State, residential segregation by city ordinance and race discrimination by separate schools are both unlawful and unconstitutional. The mayor had pointed out the proper remedy for the situation, but he failed to point out the fallacy of the proposition advocated by his health officer. It was brought out that some of the dwellings pronounced to be unsanitary were owned by whites and rented to colored tenants, while some were owned by the Negroes. The report was produced superficially by the acting secretary of the National Association for the advancement of Colored People, who suggested that Rockville Center could help the Negroes more by aiding them to obtain jobs and through educational work in hygiene, than by segregation, which would only intensify existing evils. The mayor of Wilkes-Barre achieved newspaper notoriety through his crusade against hatless males in his town. He recommended that the city council should pass an ordinance decreeing that, "those who insist on going hatless in winter weather would be declared insane and placed behind the walls of asylums." The future of city government, in view of the vagaries indulged in by some of the queerly constituted individuals elected to responsible offices, is a subject for speculation not unmixed with some degree of apprehension.

ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY. The announcement made exclusively through the columns of The Age last week, that the Western Union Telegraph company has determined to man its Harm branches with colored employees, signalizes the advance of economic opportunity in this section. Like most corporations, the Western Union may be devoid 'soul, but it harbors no prejudice on account of color or race, as has been demonstrated by its employment of white and colored messengers in Denver, Chicago, Detroit and other large cities.' But the racing of a colored man as manager, The announcement made exclusively through the columns of The Age last week, that the Western Union Telegraph Company has determined to man its Harlem branches with colored employees, signalizes the advance of economic opportunity in this section. Like most corporations, the Western Union may be devoid of soul, but it harbors no prejudice on account of color or race, as has been demonstrated by its employment of white and colored messengers in Denver, Chicago, Detroit, and other large cities. But the placing of a colored man as manager, / with an all-colored staff, at the Harlem office will be in the nature of an-experiment. The company has been impelled to make this experiment by the results of a survey recently made in Harlem, through which it appeared to be expedient to modify its past policy by putting colored messengers and clerks in its 135th street branch. This office made a record for doing a greater business during the Christmas holidays than any other office in the New York district. Many residents of Harlem instead of buying Christmas presents for relatives in the South or West Indies, sent gifts of money by telegraph or cable. The company was further encouraged to take this step by the excellent record made by Negro clerks and carriers in the postal service, as shown by their survey. College Station which has a large proportion of Negro employees, made two records among the branch stations of the New York post office last year. It had a larger number of postal savings accounts than any other station in the city. More than eleven hundred of such accounts were opened during 1929. It is also the largest C. O. D. station, which means that it receives more packages marked collect on delivery than any other station. Since most of the people receiving mail from this station are employed during the day, the carriers have trouble in making these deliveries and most of the parcels have to be returned to the station, after notice is left for the addresses to call for them. This accounts for much of the congestion at this station. The fact that the opening of a new opportunity, by such a public service corporation as the Western Union, was based on the good record made by our group of workers in the postal service is encouraging, as showing that efficient and faithful service lead to increased opportunities for the race. Similar records made by telegraph employees will no doubt lead to further economic progress. We have the men and women for the jobs, so all that is needed is the opening. RISING TIDE OF COLOR. A year or so ago, Lothrop Stoddard wrote a book called "The Rising Tide of Color," in which he directed attention to the upward struggles of the darker races to rise above the barriers to their progress erected by the fairer dominant races, who profited by the exploitation of their weaker brethren. Mr. Stoddard may not have treated the question from just that viewpoint, as he saw in the rising tide of revolt against the tyranny of alien domination a menace to white civilization. However, recent events in China and India, the seat of two ancient civilizations and once mighty empires, show aspirations toward autonomy and self-government. In China the question of extra-territoriality for European nations, by virtue of which their subjects while in China were not liable to trial before Chinese courts, but could only be tried in consular courts of the nation to which they belonged, has been disputed by the Chinese government. Last December the present Nationalist government passed a decree abolishing extra-territoriality in China, which would take away from foreigners the privilege of trial in courts presided over by their own countrymen. Several of the powers including Great Britain and the United States, have assented to the gradual relinquishment of these rights, which have existed for eighty years. Since the decree however, a test case has been made by the arrest of a British naval officer whose motor car killed a Chinese coolie. The Hankow police who made the arrest said they were acting upon specific instructions from the Nanking government, stating that "all foreigners under Chinese jurisdiction will be tried in Chinese courts." That makes a clear issue of the question with all foreign powers. In India the tide of revolt against British domination has been steadily rising during the past few years, although little news concerning the growth of nationalist sentiment appeared in the daily press. Despite the efforts of the British censors to suppress this news, The Age has published from time to time letters from an Indian correspondent showing the spread of the nationalist movement and the arbitrary methods employed to crush it. The recent meeting of the Indian National Congress, the decision made to boycott British rule by refusing to pay taxes and other demonstrations have given the movement worldwide publicity through the various press syndicates. Sunday, January 25, was fixed upon for the celebration of Independence Day all over India, beginning with the hoisting of an Indian national flag. Demonstrations in favor of freedom from British rule were expected to be held all over the country, with mass meetings wherever possible. So far as the leaders of this movement are able to control it, this is intended to be a bloodless revolution, following out the non-resistant teachings THE NEW YORK AGE Mahatma Gandhi, whose influence still strong among the masses, who guard him as a teacher and a prophet, Resolutions printed in hundreds of many tongues spoken in India have prepared for circulation among the people to be read and voted upon, as a declaration of their rights. In this document, British government is accused not of depriving the Indian people of freedom but of debasing itself by exploitation of the masses and of ruining India economically, politically, culturally and spiritually. It was therefore declared that I must sever its British connection and join in complete independence. This will one, according to the leaders of movement, without violence by wielding voluntary help from the government and ceasing to pay taxes. Of course, the British government not going to yield to the demands of a without a determined effort to re-great a territory and so rich a soil of revenue. This was proved by the reported arrest and conviction of two members of the Indian National Congress who were among those resigning seat in the Legislative Assembly or State Legislatures. These were sentenced to ten years' imprisonment on charges of sedition and conspiracy. Their trial gave out of a demonstration held in South Calcutta, to celebrate "political sufferers."

In this document the British government is accused not only of depriving the Indian people of freedom, but of debasing itself by exploitation of the masses and of ruining India economically, politically, culturally and spiritually. It was therefore declared that India must sever its British connection and attain complete independence. This will be done, according to the leaders of the movement, without violence by withdrawing voluntary help from the government and ceasing to pay taxes. Of course, the British government is not going to yield to the demands of India without a determined effort to retain so great a territory and so rich a source of revenue. This was proved by the reported arrest and conviction of twelve members of the Indian National Congress who were among those resigning seats in the Legislative Assembly or State Legislatures. These were sentenced to a year's imprisonment on charges of sodition and conspiracy. Their trial grew out of a demonstration held in South Calcutta, to celebrate "political sufferers' day."

The mob element among the American people is omnivorous in its capacity to taking victims, except perhaps in south where the black man or woman is favored object for its ferocity. The sedilection of the South for black men was caused one student of sociology conditions in that section, to favor a union of subjects for popuar hatred, order to divest the South of its burial color prejudice. But although The mob element among the American people is omnivorous in its capacity for seeking victims, except perhaps in the South where the black man or woman is the favored object for its ferocity. This predilection of the South for black victims caused one student of sociological conditions in that section, to favor a division of subjects for popuar hatred, in order to divest the South of its burden of color prejudice. But although the South may turn for a time to baiting Catholics or Jews, it has preferred the Negro as a steady object of its wrath through the years and the centuries. This is probably because it has done the Negro greater wrong than the other objects of its animosity. In other parts of the country there is a greater assortment of racial and class hatreds. In the East the communists are the objects of mob baiting, as well as prosecution and persecution by the forces of the law. In the West the Oriental races divide the burden of persecution with the black Americans. First, we heard of the Sand lot riots in San Francisco when the Chinese were denounced and beaten up as a menace to white labor. Then came the turn of the Japanese, for making too great a success as agriculturists and taking the fruit industry over as their peculiar charge. Finally, the immigration of Oriental labor was forbidden by law. Now comes the turn of the Filipinos, an Associated Press dispatch reporting the whipping of members of that race by a California mob last week and the wrecking of Filipino homes at South Watsonville. It was reported that the bitterness against the Filipinos had its inception in labor problems and flamed up at the employment of white girls as dancing partners in a Filipino club at Palm Beach, a resort across the Pajaro River. At least twelve Filipinos were badly beaten and flogged by the mob. Later dispatches reported renewal of hostilities, with the killing of one Filipino and one white man, while more than thirty Filipinos were held for safety under guard at the city hall. The next step will probably be for the Governor of California to forbid the landing of any more Filipinos and to banish those who have settled in the state. And the national government will probably ratify his decision by appropriate legislation. The California mob action may even be regarded as an additional argument for the abandonment of the Philippines as an American possession. GETTING OUT OF A MESS. Public sentiment on the subject of Haiti seems *to be getting around to the point, where the people who concern themselves at all with the problem, want this country to get out of the mess that the Wilson administration got into. This seems to be the attitude of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, which takes the ground that the executive branch of this government started the occupation, without any authority from Congress, and that the same branch can stop it without any commission to help it get the marines out of the island. The conviction voiced by Senator Borah, that there is no excuse for the continued military occupation, has provoked a ready response in the THE AGE READER'S FORUM THE AGE READER'S FORUM Communications addressed to the Editor will be printed in this column, if they bear the name and address of the writer. The opinions or theories advanced are those of the writer, and are not to be considered as reflecting the policy of The New York Age. The Editor also reserves the right to "cut down" letters that he considers of undue length. A Racial Comparison Editor of The New York Age: Editor of the New York Age: Whatever one may think of the Jews or of the movement for a Jewish Homeland in Palestine, one cannot help but be impressed by the manner in which Jewish Zionists and anti-Zionists have rallied to the support of their kinsmen lately assailed by the ruthened Arab population of that little country. Jews butterly opposed to the idea of Zionism have gone down in their pockets and contributed large sums for the rehabilitation of the destroyed Jewish communities and the succor of the homeless. From long years of exposure to the most fanatical prejudice, the Jew has been disciplined like a Spartan soldier. He knows that old I. W. W. slogan well: "An injury to one is an injury to all." Because he is in America and there are exploited and mistreated Jews in Roumania, he does not sit back indifferently with a mere grimace of disapproval. No, he financially supports the organizations that are fighting the battles of his people everywhere. If there is a pogrom in Poland, the Jews in New York have the machinery at hand to protest to the various European powers and to send delegations to our own State Department demanding that something be done. Such protests may not stop the pogroms but they do show that the Jews are alert, have power and money and are ready to fight. As a consequent pogroms grow fewer and fewer. The Jews, who total much less than nine millions, probably spend ten times more for defense and group advancement the American Negroes who number twelve millions. If it were no so serious it would be a source of great amusement to learn that Negroes in this country contributed less than $100,000 a year to the only well-organized, recognized, alert, and efficient defense organization they have: the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. And then have the unimmutated affrontery to accuse it of ineffectiveness. If our people are greatly offended at jim crowism and the constant efforts to broaden its field, they do not show their indignation in dollars and cents. If they greatly abhor lynching and penance, history does not record a single year in the history of the Aframerican group when they have given as much as a quarter of a million dollars to put an end to it. If they are deeply concerned over the continual efforts to restrict them to certain territories in our large cities where disease and death march hand in hand, it is not yet recorded where and when they have put up any real money to halt CIVIL SERVICE OPPORTUNITIES Police Commissioner Whalen and Fire Commissioner Dorman have submitted modified salary schedules for their respective departments, which will probably be taken up by the Board of Estimate this week. The new schedules cover the officers and the ranks not provided for in the recent raise. Three-day tests for patrolmen—a total of 3,305 candidates for patrolman will be examined on three successive days at the Central Opera House on East 67th street 1,200 men will be called for each of the first two days, and 995 for LETTERS TO THE EDITOR (From N. Y. Academy of Music) press. The New York. Telegram termed the occupation a violation of the traditional American policy of non-interference in the internal affairs of another country, an unjust subjugation of the Haitian people, and an offense to all Latin-America. That is all as true now as it has been during the many years that Haiti has been crushed beneath the heels of the marines, with their machine guns and bombing planes, against which machetes and ancient muskets were powerless. The responsibility is upon President Hoover to take the initiative in redeeming Haiti from the rule of the machine gun, and to assist it to re-establish a civil government of its own. Such a government may not be as efficient as the Americans who really have Haiti's interests at heart might desire, but it would probably be far superior to the dictatorship that it has undergone under the American High Commissioner, with his horde of Southern satellites, like a swarm of locusts eating up the country and insulting its inhabitants at the same time. Commission or no commission Haiti should be restored to its former state as an independent nation, with the right to determine its own destiny so long as it does not infringe on the rights of any other nation. the nerace. If anti-intermarriage seem sinister legal devices to the dark reuthen, there is no evidence that they are willing to spend any appreciable amount of money to get them off the law books of 29 Star. There is plenty of money for other things but very little to support the work of the N. A. A. C. P. Mr. Negro, 1930 Model, says: "Millions for dances but not a dime for theater." No one argues that the N. A. A. C. P. is a perfect organization or is doing all that it could do, but it the only thing of its kind the Negroes have and it seems to me that at least every intelligent Negro ought to be a member of it. GEORGE S. SCHUYLER. The Pullman Employees Editor of The New York Age: Editor of The New York Age: We have followed the series of articles published under the heading of "Thinking Under the Head and Done Among Pullman Employees" by Joseph Whitley, a 23 year porter. It can readily be seen that the writer of those articles has richly profited himself acquiring useful knowledge, in the working of the Pullman Company, which has paved his own way to success, and which he now is offering to the less initiated for their guidance and their general benefit. While these recommendations for the improvement of the service, and for a step forward in the person-nell of the porters in general May fall a few deaf ears still the rains and file of the men will avail themselves the advice, and will thereby qualify themselves to meet the higher level of service which is required of them by the company. Men of porter Whitleys type are valuable assets to any corporation with which they may be connected. An honest days service for an honest days pay, leaves nothing undone on either side; both employer and employee quit even. Previous however, to the four articles of porter Whitley, the editor of The Age has been working overtime in filling the columns of his paper with wholesome advice to porters all over the country, which has gone on without interruption for five years or more. The front end without pointing out to our readers that The Age has been in the front ranks in inading and advising the Pullman porters no other help could be seen or felt, and now it extends its fatherly arms to safeguard the interests of the Pullman maids as well as the Pullman porters. LOUIS WHITE Cambridge, Mass. the third day. The examination days are February 4, 5 and 6. This was a week of appointments rather than of examination. Over 300 were certified for appointment throughout the city for postpositions in the various departments of the service, and the labor class. 15 court attendants were appointed at $2000 a year to the City Magistrates Court; 8 draughtsmen were appointed at $1170 a year to the Board of Education, forty clerks. Grade 1, were appointed to the Department of Finance on January 21 for temporary service at $4 a day. 12 clerks. COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS ON SAYINGS OF OTHER EDITORS Under the heading of "City Hospital Open at Last," the Cleveland Gazette noted the favorable issue o: a three-year struggle for medical training. It said: City Manager Wm. R. Hopkins and Welfare Director Dudley S. Blossom on Monday affixed their signatures approving a resolution to provide equal opportunities for all races in medical training at City Hospital. The measure went before the city council and was favorably passed upon, Monday night. It was introduced by our good friend, Councilman F. W. Walz, who like Blossom had recently made a study of the hospital situation in Cleveland and other cities. Thusends The Gazette's more than three-year fight to open that public institution to our girls, wishing to study to become trained nurses, and to our internes (young doctors) who wish to train at City Hospital. Thusout the long battle our strongest supporter was George A. Myers, proprietor of the Hollenden hotel barber shop. And there are many others who helped materially to win the great victory, among them being our three Councilmen, Messrs. George, Bundy, and Payne, and Rev. Horace C. Bailey. Following close upon the opening of a municipal hospital in Boston to colored medical students, the chances for professional advancement have improved in these two centers of population. Discoursing on "The Patient Ass," in the light of a comparison made by a recent South African visitor, the Boston Chronicle said: General Jan Christian Smuts spoke a palatitude when he said that the Negro is, next to the ass, the most patient of animals. To most thinking Negroes that was ancient history. The Negro has always been the most patient of animals. Has he not drawn water and hewed wood on this continent for two hundred and fifty years? Has he not been belabored and burned and yet withal ready to fight the battles of his truducers? Is not the Negro an animal, like all other men? The questions proffered are more than rhetorical; they inevitably elicit affirmations. True, the theologians maintain that man is a little lower than the angels, but no intelligent man denies that he is also a man and a vertebrate. It is possible to classify man zoologically as well as theologically: he will be no more out of place in the New Jerusalem than his skeleton is out of place in a museum of comparative anatomy. As we have said, the Negro competes with Job for the place of the world's most docile creature. Amid vicissitudes of various sorts, through orpression and tribulation, the Negro is in the main, pitiful patient. General Smuts then was merely couching the obvious in a seemingly original statement. That statement was no more original than others of the Boer's platitudes. Nevertheless the Boston editor concluded that the remark was not a compliment, but a downright insult to the Negro. That Chicago society has taken an advanced step in the cult of color and costume was indicated by the Chicago Sunday Bee, under the heading of "Pointers to Society." It said in part: This excerpt taken from the society columns of one of Chicago's daily papers is as odd as it is interesting, "In African Costumes." "The membership of the Illinois Women's Athletic club is sponsoring an African tea this afternoon from 3 to 5 o'clock. Members of the club are to wear African costumes from the collection of Louise Van Hees Young. There will also be African music and refreshments." Now that Nordic society has introduced the oddities of African culture into their drawing rooms, it might not be amiss for colored, "Race," or Negro or Afro-American society to taboo bridge, whist, Mah Jong and popularize African pastimes for a change. African dress and costumes might be a little too abbreviated as well as scant for introduction in this frigid zone at this season of the year, and, we don't just finger out how the society ladies managed this part of the African innovation, but perhaps the African music was jazzy enough to chase the chill from the blue veins of the social aristocrats. But what puzzled the voracious Chicago scribe more than anything else was the nature of the African delicacies served. He did not expect cannibal fare, but evidently hoped for the worst. Grade 1, were appointed for permanent service at $840 a year. 3 law examiners were appointed from the list to the Law Department at $1560 a year; 100 drivers and 100 sweepers were appointed at $6.32 and $5.82 a day, respectively, to be appointed to the department of sanitation in the Borough of Manhattan, Bronx and Brooklyn, 5 dentists were appointed at $1220 a year for work with the Board of Education; 15 custodian-engineers were appointed to date from the list at $3085 a year; 7 stenographer-typists, grade 2, were appointed to the Department of Health at $1200 a year A new examination will soon be ordered for Lay Sanitary Inspector, grade 2, as there are at present many vacancies, and no existing eligible list. This position pays a salary of $1000 a year minimum salary. The column is specially prepared and edited for you. Don't fail to read it every week. It contains valuable news. Remember, 1930 is going to be the biggest year in Civil Service history. Saturday, February 1, 193 Taking issue with the recent diatum of William Auerback-Levy that "the young Negro artists of America seem to be painting like their white fellow workers and to be imitating great white painters," the Philadelphia Tribune said. Mr. Levy like many other men labors under the erroneous impression that Negroes have a peculiar culture which is the result of their African ancestry. He forgets that the Negro is essentially an American. And because he eats, sleeps, works, and thinks like an American he is said to be imitating white people. This conclusion is reached because Americans who are descendants of Nordic races have a twisted idea that Negroes are a different kind of an American—in fact not an American; that true Americans must be white therefore, when a dark American does something which does not reflect African background, he is imitating white folk. As a matter of fact he is simply acting like an American. Perhaps it might be better if he did not—but he does. There has been too much loose talk concerning the peculiar difference of the American Negro from other Americans. There are no scientific facts to justify this position. Certainly there is a color distinction. But the mental reactions are the same when the conditions are equal. The black American artist might because of intense suffering, express a certain sorrowfulness, but he can not develop a purely African Art here in America with any more case than any other American. To expect the American Negro to develop African culture in an American environment is a modern edition of trying to make bricks without straw. Colored citizens of Norfolk are rejoicing over the action of the City Council, which will ensure them a bathing beach and recreation center next summer. That this was not granted without opposition was shown by an editorial in the Norfolk Journal and Guide, which said: Colored citizens who attended the hearing before City Council last Tuesday afternoon came away with a deep sense of admiration for the courage and enlightened social consciences of Messrs. Tyler, Wood, Herbert and Robertson, whose statesmanlike action made the much needed bathing beach a reality, and with a deep sense of pity, and even shame, for the howling mob of six or seven hundred misguided and prejudice ridden whites, who all but reenacted the scene that furnished the background for Pontius Pilius's court in the Church was the Pilius's church, almost inconceivable, that late in the twentieth century, some members of the superior race can come near to reverting to savagery. That Council, voting four to one (Mr. Butter opposing) chose to follow the dictates of duty and decency, in the face of such an emotional and hysterical demonstration, in something upon which Norfolk may congratulate itself. With men of such courage, vision and sense of justice at the helm the city should feel proud of its government. Colored citizens of Norfolk and the 'Journal and Guide believes a large percentage of white citizens are deeply grateful for the final victory Council in this matter. They approve the judgment of Council in the selection' of an appropriate site on deep water, affording colored citizens a recreation center on a plane with others enjoyed exclusively by their white neighbors. Why such a project should excite such vicious opposition on the part of some whites is difficult to conceive. Talking about the necessity of putting more Negroes on the selling end in business in order to improve employment conditions, the Pittsburgh Courier said; For a long time we have been looking for a sale and sale program. Now comes the National Negro Business League with just the thing we have been looking for: The C. M. A. Stores, which translated means "Colored Merchants' Association Stores." Under the aggressive leadership of Albon Holsey, Negro merchants have come together, pooled their interests and probed by the association in Selma, Alabama; Dallas, Texas; Jackson, Mississippi; Winston-Salem, North Carolina; and New York, N. Y. In all the Negro merchants throughout the country have been shown the only way for them to survive and prosper in the midst of chain stores for them to meet together and form a chain of their own. This they have done in six cities. An effort will be made during 1930 to organize the colored merchants in twenty more cities. The greatest menace to the small individual merchant, white and black, has been his smallness and his individuality in a world of massive co-operative enterprises. The Negro merchants are seeking to remedy that in the only way possible to remedy it. i.e., by adopting the business tactics and procedure of the chain stores. This means that with the increasing trade as a result of this intelligent planning, pooling and co-operation, there will be more positions opened for our young men and women who are coming out of school with no future to speak of. It then becomes a racial duty to do all in our power to assist the Colored Merchants Association because the successor the venture will help the entire race, giving hope where now, too often, there is a feeling of fear and futility. A symbol and color scheme are to be adopted, as the result of a prize contest, to distinguish these stores, so that there will remain to excuse for failure to support them. MANHATTAN & BROOKLYN RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES Saturday, February 1, 1930 Williams Institutional C. M. E. Church, 918-220 West 130th street, served a large audience Sunday, Registration Day. Pursuit "the Better Community program" as announced by the pastor, Dr. N. W. Clark, a large audience attended both services. Both pastor and officers seemed delighted with the progress the church is making. Members are being encouraged to each other to receive the right hand of fellowship Sunday. "Under my pastorate," said Dr. Clark. "We church will seek the fullest possible acquaintance with all legitimate business conducted in the community by the church for the setting of cooperation for the community weal. If it is a business or a profession that blesses the community, the church owes it to stimulation, cooperation and encouragement; but if any unworthy business, then the church should be vigorous and attentive to the point of its utter destruction. Business, real business, must have men, and men, real business men, must have the church. To bless every business and profession that are actually blessing the community, the church must do duty to which we expect to commit, the thousands whom we claim as our members and friends." Many business men and women were present at both services and expressed themselves delighted with this new economic note so strong, that they felt the pull of the interest of the community. Added to the list of businesses already registered, uskers were requested to, receive and register additional business, looking forward to the prosecution of a quiet but well organized scheme of community bettement.

Church At the morning service, the pastor, Dr. Clarke, preached to a large congregation from the first book of Chronicles, 5th chapter, and 2nd verse. Dr. Clarke used as a theme: "Constitution of the kingdom of heaven." The genealogy from Judah to Christ was beautifully and skillfully traced by Dr. Clarke. At the close of the sermon the Right Rev.

He suffered a paralytic stroke a year ago and was taken to his former home in the West where he could have the care of relatives. For twenty-five years he had been doorman at the Metropolitan Opera House and Soug, his position came to know many people of wealth and distinction.

WHITE sunday afternoon, January 26. brought to Harlemites at least five musical and dramatic events of major importance, all of them being pre- presented in the food shop to go to mind. And according to available in- formations, large and appreciative au- ditiones greeted the artists in their arousal sports. task and the singing is aling. There is a pity to pitchy solidity of particular singing of a little was a Little Monarch Symphony Band At J. O. the Monarch Symphony band, conducted by Lieut. Fred W. Simpson, presented its monthly Sunday afternoon program of band music to an audience that filled every seat in the auditorium on the Harriett Beecher Stowe Girls' Junior High School at 135th street and Edgecombe avenue. In addition to the instrumental numbers by the band, there were two numbers sung by Miss Dayse Regina Harding, who is an honorary member of the band and its official soloist. Another enjoyable feature was the unexpected presence of a hundred or more girls from Public School 119, composing a giles club which delighted the large audience by their splendid rendering of four Spirituals, under the direction of Mrs. Robert Pearse, their director. The band played with its usual fine sense of interpretation, with clarity and harmony of utterance. Outstanding numbers of the afternoon's offerings included selections from Ponchelli's opera, "La Gioconda", Elgar's Military March, "Pomp and Circumstance"; the Tschakowiski Overture, "Solennelle (1812)"; the Prologue from "Pagliacci"; by Leonardo, and the usual descriptive number, "World War" by Luders. Another number was Caprice, "Blue Violets", by Eilenberg, which had been specially arranged for this band by Lieut. Simpson, who found, when seeking copies for his organization, that the number was out of print, and he was unable to get any of the music save the solo cornet part. It was from this theme score that the beautiful arrangement was made. The score for the Elgar march was also the director's arrangement. Other numbers were the march, "Sons of the Desert" by Cline; a Serenade, "Estrelita" by Ponce and an intermezzo "The Wedding of the Rose" by Jessell. The program as usual opened with the Star Spangled Dinner and closed with Auld江长 contributions to Summer Park Legend Fund will be given next week. The Eckles' Recital John Eckles, tenor, and Blanche Smith-Eckles, soprano, collaborated in a joint recital at the Elks' auditorium, 160 West 19th street, offering a program of varied interest. These singers have been earnest and consistent students of the singing art, and their renditions on this occasion showed plainly the benefits attached to persistent effort. Mr. Eckles' voice has rounded out to a marked extent, developing sonority and depth. In certain phrases, however, there is a tendency to force his tones, and this seems to be unnecessary, since the singer gives evidence of an ample physical equipment. Mrs Eckles sings with a fine restrait it, and is the possessor of a voice of mite lyrical quality. She uses the mezzo voice to a great extent, but she reserves power sufficient unto the demands of bravura and forte passage. They deserved a larger audience than was present, but their auditors were liberal in appreciation. Mr. Eckles sang "Caro mi ben" by Giordani, the "Vesti la giubba" air from Leoncaavello "Pagliacci," la donna a mobile" from Verdi's "Rigolotto," all in Italian; "Comfort is my people" and "Every valley shall be exalted" from Handel's "Messiah"; "Passing by" by Purcell and two Spirituals, "Deep River" by Burleigh, and "Swing low, sweet charitie" by Diton. Mrs. Eckles rendered a group of Italian songs, "Gia il sol dang Gale" by Carlatti; "Care selve" from Handel's "Atalanta," and "Un bei del deteremo" from Puccin's "Madame dutterf," the aria, "With verdure dah love," from "Creation" by Haydn; "Ah love, but a day" by Gilberte, and two Spirituals, "My way is cloudy" by Rosamond Johnson and "Every time I feel the Spirit" by Lawrence Breen. The duets completed the program, "Singing from the Negro opera Vendetta" with the composer, H. Hassene Freeman at the piano, and the other final duet from "Aida" by Verdi. Schubert Music Club The main auditorium of St. Marina P. E. Chapel, 122nd street and Lenox avenue, the Rev. John Howard Johnson, vicar, was packed to capacity at 4 p.m., the occasion being the appearance of the Schubert Music Club, under direction of Edward H. Margetson, the talented young composer and conductor, the assisting artist James Millington, and Carl Margetson at piano. Mr. Margetton presented his group of about thirty mixed voicedg in a program of unusual merit, including English and Russian compositions, with several numbers by Bach. Whenever the Schubert Club makes a public appearance it may be anticipated with certainty that their offerings will possess quality and merit, and that the interpretations will be authoritative and understandable. Without any transpending vocal augment at his disposal, Mr. Margetton has brought his singers to a degree of meticulous devotion to their task and the result is that their singing is always worth while hearing. There is accuracy of attack, fidelity to pitch, developed nuances and solidity of tonal utterance. This was particularly noticeable in the singing of a Legend: "When Jesus was a Little Child" by Teichakowsky; Egar's "A Torrents in Summer" and the Bach chorus, "Come and Thank Him." Three Chorales, "Lead us, O Father," a Manx folk tune, and two by Bach, "Commit thy ways to Jesus" and "My sin it was" comprised the opening group, and the style of their rendition prepared the audience for the rest of the program. The club was especially fine in its a capella numbers, one of the most effective being an Adagietto by Bizet, arranged for the club by Mr. Margetson, without accompaniment, and hummed throughout by the various voice sections. Other ensemble numbers included "Invocation" by Rogers; "My God, I thank Thee" by Lemare, with baritone solo by Samuel Fox; "Lead, Kindly Light" by Stainer, with soprano solo by Mrs. Rose Margeson, and "Abide with me" by Bennet. Mr. Millington played two violin groups, the first comprising "Ave Maria" by Schubert-Wilhijen, and "Meditation" by Brahmst with Hungarian Fantasy by Monti as his second offering. He displayed digital dexterity and produced an attractive tone. Other numbers were piano solos by Enid Manning and Muriel Davis, the latter playing the Mendelssohn Rondo Capriccioso in fine style, soprano solo by Bernice Woodroffe; duet, Elaine Deveaux, contralto, and Ernest Iles, tenor a Trelude by Scriabin and the "Nightingale" by Alabie-Liast by Karl Margeson, pianist, whose splendid playing necessitated an added number, an Impromptu by Chopin, and a tenor solo by Leslie Gray. Mr. Margeton played the accompaniments for all soloists save Mr. Millington and for the accompanied ensemble numbers. Cameron White's Recital Clarence Cameron White, distinguished violinist and composer, held forth from the stage of the International House auditorium in a program of music for the violin, before an audience made up largely of the city's most eminent musical cognoscenti. It was an assembling of the sophisticated, and it was bajuml fit for their digestion that the artist served them. Mr. White ranks easily among the best violinists of the century, and he has won his place by long, arduous application superimposed upon a foundation of surprising genius. His playing Sunday afternoon emphasized the fact that he is justly entitled to the accolades which have been given him. For this recital, Mr. White offered the following program, with his wife Mrs. Beatrice Warrick White, at the piano: Giaccona in G Minor, Vitali, Romance in E Minor, Sinding; Viennes Melody, Heuberger-Kreisler Twillight, Massenet; Fizzicato, Thome; Ballade in C Minor and African Dance, No. 1, Coleridg-Taylor; and a group of his own compositions; Spirituals; Serenade; On the Bayou; Camp Song (Water Boy); Negro Chant; Negro Dance. A program of dramatic readings and impersonations was given at Grace Congregational Church, West 139th street, the Rev. A. C. Garner, pastor, by Time, by Jason Brooks and the Mamie Brooks Rite.

Interracial Commission Reports Eighty-Eight Per Cent Decrease In Lynchings In Past Ten Years Organization Formed Just After World War To Obviate Danger of Wide-Spread Race Conflict Has Done Splendid Work Atlanta, Ga.—A decrease during the past ten years of eighty-eight per cent in the annual lynching record is cited as obvious evidence of improving interracial conditions in the South, in a statement made public by the Commission on Interracial Cooperation on the completion of its first ten years of work. The steady decline in the number of lynchings, from 83 in 1919, to eleven in 1928, and ten in the year just ended, the Commission considers a significant index of changing public sentiment. Evidence of Progress. Evidence of Progress. Another evidence of progress which the Commission counts equally important, though less spectacular, has been the rapid increase of educational facilities for Negroes during the last decade. This has taken the form of larger public appropriations, longer school terms, better prepared and better paid teachers construction of thousands of modern schoolhouses, multiplication of high schools, and more liberal support of normal and collegiate institutions. This has come about, the Commission believes, not only as a result of the South's increasing prosperity, but even more because of a growing public confidence that edu- Superior Individual Thing As Superior Mark To Kentuc Superior Individuals But No Such Thing As Superior Race, Says Rabbi Mark To Kentucky Interracial Meet Nashville, Tenn.—"There is no such a thing as a superior race, though there are superior individuals within each race." was the statement of Rabbi Julius Mark, in his keynote address before the annual meeting of the State Interracial Committee in this city a few days ago. "The illusion of race superiority is a fallacy." Dr. Mark continued; "and gives rise to a great deal of trouble. People should learn also that race prejudice is not instinctive but acquired. Consequently it can be eradicated." The address of Dr. Mark was one of a number of interesting discussions among the speakers were Dr. W. J. Hale, incidental, A and M. Colleen, Dr. H. Dewitt, of the State Court of Appeals, Dr. E. L. Bishop, State Commissioner of Health, L. M. Robinson, State Welfare Director; Lee Loventhal, of the City Park Board, Dr. C. V. Roman, Dr. Robert T.

Important In Health. Other important gains of the decade cited in the statement are a decided improvement in Negro health and a longer life span; the better support of Negro welfare agencies through public appropriations and community budgets; the enlistment of the important religious groups, particularly the organized church women, in programs of interracial body and settlement introduction, the beginning of race relations into hundreds of colleges and high schools; the publication of many excellent books and magazine articles by and about Negroes, the mobilization of several thousand men and women in interracial committees which are working for a larger measure of justice and opportunity for the South's Negro population. The statement accords to the newspaper of the South a large Is But No Such Race, Says Rabbiky Interracial Meet Robert E. Clay, state Rosenwil agent and associate interracial secretary, reported that interracial committees throughout the state are contributing largely toward the erection of Negro schools. Judge Dewitt commended the work being done to secure uniform justice for both races, and Dr. Bishop told of the state-wide health campaign that is being carried on. Other subjects considered were institutional care, parks and playgrounds, the welfare of colored women and children, and student interracial activities. The need for their transportation facilities was emphasized in the form of the Committee's major objectives on the coming year. More than sixty persons were present, representing all parts of the state. The following officers were elected for the ensuing year; Chairmen, Dr James E. Clarke and Dr. R. T.

To Present Race Conflict To Prevent Race Conflict The Commission of Interracial Cooperation composed of a hundred Southern men and women, was organized in Atlanta just after the World War in the effort to obviate the danger of widespread race conflict at that time. To this end it set up eight hundred interracial committee across the South, through which misunderstandings 'were chained up and confidence was restored. These committees then entered upon the effort to discover and remedy conditions of neglect and injustice affecting Negroes, and have achieved results that have attracted favorable attention throughout America and abroad, leading to the organization of similar committees in many other sections of the country and in South Africa. The Commission is an incorporated body with headquarters in Atlanta and its officers are President W. C. Jackson, R. E. Greenboro; vice presidents, R. E. Redon, M. Ticegee Irrate and R. E. King of Atlanta; treasurer, J. S. Kennedy of Atlanta; executive director, Will W. Alexander. FRANK H. BARRE DIES SUDDENLY Frank H.

Y.—The political leadership of the colored citizens of Mount Vernon has at last been placed in the custody of one who can do justice to the occasions whenever they may arise and demand a defender for the rights of the race. The Douglass Republican Club may organization recommended by the powers that bear has at last held a legitimate election and placed in office a man at the head who is without a doubt, the most capable of the community to represent the race in the person of U. Francis Monroe who was installed in office at its January meeting. Mr. Vernon, head of the pro jig line, in his unassuming way, for the past quarter of a century. During that time po art has been too small, or too large to get the support of his pen whenever the interest of the race was at stake. The newspaper files of the public library or Newburgh, N. M., reveals the interesting story of how he broke up race discrimination almost single handed. Since he came, to Mount Verbot six years ago, nothing has escaped condemnation through the columns of the daily paper, that had a taint of race prejudice. Neither has his race pride been demonstrated, locally, but the State land Federal authorities have had their share of protests against that which tended toward injustice to the race. Immediately after taking office, the new president appointed a committee to cooperate with him in putting a monster celebration in honor of Frederick Douglass' birthday and to do honor to Abraham; Lincoln at the same time - since the two men were of the same calibre and were engaged in the same cause together.

Stiles, the commissioner of Public Safety and the governor of Verion Trust Company.

HOGANS LOUIS, THE ELEVATOR BOY LOUIS, THE ELEVATOR BOY He is only a boy, a colored boy, who doesn't appear to be out of his teens, although he might be at that. Usually youths of his apparent years are found to be more or less sophisticated, especially, regarding work. On the subject of work, the lad is profound, which you may judge later for yourself. The lad's name is Louise Preston, and he works in the Grand Central Terminal Building. He operates the employees elevator in this building. Every day, in the you will except perhaps Sundays, you will go to three in the morning to three in the afternoon, saying "going up" "going down", to the host of railroad workers and station employees who use that elevator exclusively Unlike the elevators that are designated for the use by the building's tenants, their employees and visitors, there is no starter to give the operator orders when he should go. That function is left left solely to the discretion of the runner. If you are one of those who have ever operated the "help's" elevator in a large apartment house or hotel you can well appreciate how arduous the job is. Even Louis, who never permits his passengers to mar his amable disposition, admits himself that it is no sugar coated job. But on the other hand, he enunciated this philosophy: Work is like life—it Penn Terminal Notes By J. T. REID Some weeks ago, in this column, I wrote a few lines to the young porters of our District. It seems to have been appreciated so much by them that I am again going to write a few words in regards to the hallmark of success. Responsibility—the hallmark of success—accept it and succeed. Do not waste time on matters of finance or personnel when they are outside of our job. But remember that practically all operations and methods of procedure are related to your work. In one way or another, learn about them and become familiar with them; be ready always to take the job of the man next higher up. Take advantage of the opportunities that so often come to persons with a sense of responsibility and in accepting responsibility, do not tear that you will be son for American intervention in Haiti." Further," said he, "it there is a sincere wish to do anything for Haiti. America should choose people to take messages who have the capacity to take it. Most of the American representatives have been Lousiana residents of a state that had hundreds of lynchings in its history.

The faculty wishes to extend thanks to Messrs Marion Manner and Herbert Compton, tailors of this city, for the many beautiful patches with which to make the quilt.

Apart from being amiable and unsophisticated, Louis has a sense of wit which he sometimes expresses in verse.

During the Christmas season Louis wrote this jingle and placed it in his car: Louis is not best in town But he takes you up and down Don't forget Louis Chocolate is around When Christmas come around Evidently, some Pullman employees remembered him, for the following is one of his rhymes, entitled "The Pullman Man": There is a Pullman man I don't know his name But everytime I see him He is always the same He carries a smile upon his face Which seems so strange to me To always see that Pullman man So full of laughter and glee I am the elevator boy Who takes him up and down And he never forgets me When Christmas comes around. alone. The higher pay that accompanies the better positions may not require more manual labor. But it must be earned; and one way to earn it is by accepting responsibility whenever the opportunity offers.

Mott Haven Yard News Assistant Employment Agent W. C. Taylor and Pullman Conductor F. P. Jones of the New York district are both men of conspicuous size and girth, but with this difference, the former is tall and muscular, with the frame of a prize fighter; while the latter is round and short and leans noticeably towards corpulence. Whenever these two gentlemen meet, which is not so often these days, each indulges in a hearty laugh, but the laugh is one of those, tug for tat affairs. Years ago, the two men ran together on the Twentieth Century Limited between New York and Chicago. One day, while entering Chicago, the train made an unusual stop. Taylor, who was then pertaining, went to the door of his car to see what the trouble was. Facing the train when it halted was a crowd of young school boys, who, catching sight of Taylor, villed, "Oh, see the big smoke."

PAGE NINE Before the birth from that taily had died, Jones, who also noted the halt, appeared at the door of one of the other "Pullmans," "Oh," cried another wit among the boys, "see the 'beef trust'." Since that day, every time they encounter each other, they have to laugh about those "devilish schoolboys." They met recently in the district office in the Grand Central Building, so that was how this correspondent happened to come in possession of the joke. Several porters were overheard discussing the durability of certain porters in the district a few days since. That is, they were speaking of those fellow workers who were along in years, but who held hard runs without showing any ill effects, either from years or the runs they were on. Of those discussed, "Cy Anderson, who doubles the road between New York and Pittsfield on a buffert-pair car six days in a week; "Joe" Price, who also doubles the road between Troy, N. Y., and Grand Central Station on a parlor car line; and "Andy Condy, who runs between New York and Cleveland, one of the longest parlor lines in the entire Pullman service, were three of the men specifically mentioned. Not one of these three porters is under fifty-five years of age, yet each is seen filling his lines everyday he is due out, the exception being Price, who is sometimes missing for several weeks. But when such occasions are noted, Joe is working just the same, perhaps, harder, for on those occasions he is usually off with some private car party. Among the porters who gave Pullman service in the Pullman manner during the month past, and whose proficiency in that respect has been noted in letters of appreciation to the company, were B. Carswell, Wm. Farmer, C. A. Smith and G. E. Wilson of this district. One more month and we'll be the "doctor" again, boys. One wellknown porter in the district has already begun preparing the event by abstaining from anything stronger than gingerale; another has ut his cigarettes to pack a day, and still another has been observed cutting the amount of his food.

Jacques, health officer in the town of Rockville Centre, Nassau County, in a sweeping recommendation to the town board, advocated the segregation of the colored residents of the town and the demolition of a considerable portion of their homes. Dr Jacques argued that in many of the old houses on Banks avenue and adjoining streets, such as North Centre and Wellington Centre, were most of the Rockville Centre colored residents, many as 20 families are crowded in a small house. He said he know of one case where 2 women lived in one room. Dr Jacques also advocated the segregation of colored and white children in the town's schools on the grounds that because of the poverty of many of the colored families, disease might be spread by them among the white youngsters. His recommendations, Dr. Jacques said, came as the result of a long survey of conditions among the colored people in Nassau County. It was hinted that condemnation proceedings might be instituted against some of the owners of houses in the colored district on the grounds that the dwellings were unsanitary and constituted a threat to health, would like to ask Dr. Jacques about other districts in New York City and also would like some recommendations on them. We don't remember any recommendations having ever been made by Dr. Jacques to help the many colored poverty stricken families of Nassau Towns that he NOTICE II The Owner of a highly successful HARLEM, that has outgrown to meet from one to ten programs a reasonable sum of money and of forming a small Company toness.
