St. Peter's Claver In Drive For Funds for Poor
The recent pageant of "The Little Flower," which was held at St. Peter Claver's R. C. Church, Jefferson avenue and Ormond place, during Lent, was a huge success in every way. It was attended by several thousand communicants of both races. The Rev. Bernard F. Quinn, pastor of the church. The funds realized from this affair will go towards the construction of the first unit of a home at Wading River, L. I. A community house which will be built for the use of all colored people in the parish, regardless of creed, is also included in the plans.
The home on Long Island will be for the care of the many destitute and homeless children who are numbered among the 75,000 colored population of Brooklyn and Long Island.
In November, 1929, a bazaar was held in order to aid in getting funds for the first unit. This unit will house forty children, and will cost
$85,000. The greater part of this sum has already been raised through the efforts of Father Quinn, who was able to secure a number of contributions.
The home, first of its kind in this part of New York State, will be known as the Little Flower House of Providence. It will be run by Sisters of St. Peter Claver's Convent, the only colored Roman Catholic institution in brooklyn.
The home is now under construction. When completed, the building will be fully equipped to provide for the educational and religious training of its forty occupants.
This structure, however, is but the first unit in the completed home for destitute children, as it is planned by Father Quinn. He believes that within a few years the church will be able to erect a complete educational and religious center at Wading River, capable of housing the many colored children who need such a home. The place is between Port Jefferson and Riverhead.

---
Because he flew into a jealous rage and stabbed his sweetheart and her niece, Neal Henderson, 35, is in jail on a charge of felonious assault. The assault took place in the apartment of Miss Ela Bomar, 30 at 2550 Seventh avenue, on the evening of April 30.

Both young women are in Harlem Hospital in a serious condition from loss of blood.

ultaneously he was greeted with cries cries for help by Frank Bergholm, 50, white, of 363 Forty-eighth street, who was being held up. As Newbuer entered the fray he was greeted by a well aimed cobblestone from the hands of one of the colored men, he alleged. The stone was followed by an ashecan cover and the cover of a milk can. The two colored men, being out of ammunition, started to use their fists on the officer.
The battle raged for fifteen minutes and was witnessed by a large number of people who watched it from windows on Myrtle avenue and Flat place. Seeing that he was losing out Officer Newbauer, who seldom uses a nightstick, brought it to play and the fight was over.

DIFFERENCES IN DEMOCRACY.
ee ee ee eee See remy Ss, Se ewe
and the Democracy of the South, On the
question ‘of the confirmation“ of Judge
Parker’of North Carolina for the Supreme
Court bench, made by President Hoover
“purely because it seemed to him “a mas-
ter political stroke” in his attempt to split
the Solid South, Northern Democrats
have divided upon the question uf his fit
ness for the position, in view wi his attic
tude both toward the rights of labor unions
and those of Negro voters. Because he
is opposed by Negroes, most of the South-
ern Democrats seem to feel that they
must support his-nomination, even if it
is aimed against their political control of
that section. The southern politicians’
obsession on the subject of the Negro was
" never’ more clearly shown as working to
their own disadvantage..
The attitude of the Southern Senators
was thrown into bolder ‘relief by the
statesmanlike utterances of Senator Wag-
tigr of New York in stating his reasons
for opposing the confirmation, Although
a’inémber in high standing of Tammany
Hall, a political organization which
through its Congressional representatives
has for many years supported the South-
ern Democracy in most of its policies, the
New York Senator pointed out a deep. and
fundamental consistency between Judge
Parker's views of labor relations and his
reported attitude toward the colored peo-
ple of the United States, They were both
ascribed as springing from a single trait
of character, namely the incapacity to
_view with sympathy the aspirations of
those‘ who are aiming for a higher and
better place in the world. Senator Wag-
ner went further and said:
“In my State, I am happy to say, men and
and women participate fully and’ freely.
every phase of democratic government and
an every branch of the arts and sciences,
without regard to race or creed oF color
“From the contributions. to. is develop:
ment by the Negro as well as the white man
the State of New York has grown to the
position it holds to-day. We have never
had cause to regret that in New York color
docs not determine the rights of citizenship
or access to private opportumitiss, 1am
sure we never shall.
“Judge Parker's reference to the colored
race 1s, to my mind, insufferable and unjust
fed affront to millions of Amercan citizens.”
Special point was given to Senator
‘Wagner's outspoken declaration as to the
free participation of all citizens in every
phase of democratic governinent in his
own State by'the action takea by « Demo-
cratic Governor in dealing with’ legisla-
tion sponsored by Negro legislators and
affecting in some measure the citizens of
that race, Besides his approval of the
Rivers bill 16 provide a new municipal
court district in Manhattan, which will
make possible the election of two Negro
judges, the Governor signed several bills
to improve living conditions in the city
tenements, despite the bitter opposition of
landlords. One of these authorized ten-
ants to withhold rent from landlords un-
tl they repair conditions which make
their property unsuitable for occupancy.
The Governor also signed the Perkins bill
extending the protection of the emergency
rent laws to certain, classes of tenants.
Alll of these measures will benefit the Ne-
gro tenants of Harlem, as well as white
tenants in other sections of the city.
‘There have been other Democratic Sen-
ators besides Senatér Wagner who have
parted company with their Southern col-
leagues, when it came to taking a stand
‘on’ certain bills or nominations purely on
an aint-Negro basis. If we recall rightly,
Mt Was the vote of Senator Walsh of Mon-
tana which niade possible the confirmation
of Walter Cohen as a Federal appointee
at New Urleans a few years ago. And a
former Senator of the Same name from
Massachusetts was to be relied upon in|
taking a stand on legislation and appoint-
‘nents unmoved by racial bias. |
‘These incidents go to. show that in the
essential quality of real democracy there
is a wide difference between the practice
of the, Democrats of the North and those
of the South. Real democracy toes not
exist in the South, even for white voters,
much less for black ones. Government is

A COMPETENT COMMISSIONER.
‘The handling of two May Day gath-
erings .of such widely diverse character
as the War Veterans and.the Commun-
ists, without a clash of opposing elements
or the resort to wholesale clubbing, show-
ed that New York possesses a Police
Commissioner of unusual qualities. Hard.
ly two months ago the Communists held
a demoistration in Union Square, which
provoked considerable violence’ and
arouSed charges of undue zeal in the use
of clubs and fists by the police, Last
Thursday both factions occupied Union
Square, at different hours, of course, and
talked their heads. off, in patriotic and
communistic fashion, without anyone be-
ing the worse for the exercise, “except
perhaps the speakers who overstrained
hee vocal chords. RA
“It requires rare judgment and adapta-
bility for any official with anlimited pow-
er to-reverse a policy once adopted and
try a new method of approach. Mr.
Whalen was able to do this in his man-
agement of the May’Day demonstrations
with happy results, and if bot elements
of the celebration were not pleased, it was
ino fault of his. He showed ability to keep
his temper under the provocation of verb-
al denunciations and insulting carica:
‘tures displayed on the banners, But he
only smiled and carried on with imper-
turbable good nature. He had the power
to sweep the whole square empty of the
crowd or to turn it into the bloody sham-
bles of a battle field. But he had, the
sense and self-control to do neither. “He
gave a perfect object lesson of how te
allow the widest freedom of speech even
to Red orators and yet preserve the pub-
lic peate without violence. And he was
able to transmit this méthod to the force
under his control.
Mr. Whalen is probably the best police
commissioner that New York has had
since the days of Theodore Roosevelt. He
has been able to put his own spirit into
the men’he commands by his example of
leading them in person, He has not hesi-
tated to make changes when he thought
them necessary to improve the morale of
the force or to make its work more ef-
fective. He has also had the courage to
discard one system and try another when
the results expected did not follow. He
has made many experiments in various
lines in police work, some of which were
conspicitous in the recent police parade.
The police not oniy patrol the streets and
waterways of New York, but are prepared
to take to the air when occasion demands.
The. position of Police Commissioner
ts one of the most arduous and exacting

In the discussion of candidates for the
two municipal judgeships that are con-
ceded to be filled by members of the race
in the Harlem district, much has been
said concerning the necessity for judicial
character and legal ability. It is expect-
ed that a judge should be versed in the
law, otherwise he would be unablé to
command the respect of the lawyers who
argue their cases before huni and would
suffer the penalty of having too many of
his opinions reversed: by a higher court.
This happens once in a while to the best
of judges, because law at its best is not
Ss clatt gelease, and wing may be good
law today may be the reverse a few years
hence. :
. What is known as the judicial temper-
ament has a great deal to do with the
success or the failure of a good lawyer
who may be: elevated to the bench ° He
niust be able to take a somewhat detached
view -of the cases before him, senuning
up the evidence and the law’ with the at-
tempt to fit the letter and spirit of the
latter to the particular case at hand in an
effort to render justice to both partes
In this endeavor the judge must possess
what is termed the human touch, that is,
he must not let his judicial positiin etr-
ry him ton far aloof from the human
angles of the case before him. He must
interpret the law in the spirit of justice
and not merely according to his int=-ce-
tual concepts of it as a legal proposition.
Judges who are able to do this wih sut
departing from the legal verities of the
case will command greater confidence on
the part of the whole community. Judges
mugt nat play favorites in their desire to
please their political -sponsors. A judge
who does this too often and too openly
will forfeit the respect of both lawyer and
litigants who have to appear before him,
That’a judge must not consort with or
cater to clements-in the community that
are opposed to the law, is so obvious a
proposition that it should not be neces-
sary to voite it, except for the fact that
there have been instances of 1t being done
with more or less impunity.
c Jqdgee should, beware “ok: the adép eon
ofa captious or carping toné.in‘ dealing
with lawyers or witnesses. There have
been ‘examples of judges’ in the lower
courts who seemed to take delight in’ bul-
lying and hectoring those hapless individ-
uals who came before them, merely to as:
sert their power or to overawe witnesses
who testified against their, preconceivel
notion: of what the evidence ought to be
These judges might be accused of oppres:
sion'in their treatment of some litigants,
who do not win their favor because of
some bias actuated by prejudice or a
crossgrained temper. The character of
the courts ‘suffers through their actions
Unfailing courtesy should be part of the
equipment of a judge, as well as the abil
ity to evoke like behavior on the part o!
clerks and court officers, Character and
legal ability-are indispensable, but” judi
cial temperament also helps.
CAREERS IN CITY SERVICE.
The adoption of civil service methods
in filling vacancies in municipal occupa.
tions has helped to develop a new and su:
perior type of appointees in the city ser-
vice. This is especially noticeable in the
case of policemen and firemen, who in the
old days were selected purely on the dis.
play of beef and brawngand the aid of 2
good word from their political leaders.
Nowadays, most candidates for the police
and fire forces are young men with both
merital and physical training. Mearly all
of them are high school graduates, white
some of them have the advantage of col-
lege training. : :
Both of these d&artments of the city
service offer a-better opening to young
men capable of passing the mental and
physical: tests than most business or pro-
fessional pursuits, if the candidate has the
craving for 4 career that involves hazaré
and perhaps adventures. It is- therefore
a little singular that more of our young
men who have scholastic advantages have
not applied for positions on the force.
Gither to fight crime or fire, two of the
Ereatest menaces to city life and prop:
erty. Besides phe p jement of ad-
venture that iS posyible to evé?y: man on
‘either force, there ‘is’ the mfonotony of
many hours of patrol or firg/house duty,
that must be the routine of every member
of either force. a
The advaittages “for those who would
secure a permanent place in the city ser-
vice are considerable. The salary is am-
ple for the officer who reaches the first
grade, and his tenure is permanent during
good behavior, with the prospect of ¢e-
tirement with pay after a not excessive
term of setvice. Many retired officers are
in such good physical condition that the)
can readily securé a position as private
guard in banks or other institutions.
‘The young men who have not fixed up-
on a gainful and congenial occupation,
might do well to apply for postions ‘in
cither of these departments of city .ser-
vice. Take the examination for police:
man or fireman, and if you do not see
the world, you will probably see a large
section of it in New York, which is well
worth seeing.
FURNITURE ON CONTRACT.

‘There are. many people of fair incomes
but limited resources, who are tempted
to buy furniture and other accessories te
héusekeeping on contract,.as they call it
agreeing to make payments in weekly ot
monthly instalments. According. to. the
stories told by some of these purchasers,
something happens to disturb the regular-
ity of the payments, like sickness or loss
of the job, and their troubles begin. Re
gardless of the large equity which the
purchaser may have acquired in the goods
by reason of payments made, the dealer
seizes them without the slightest delay or
the allowance of any rebate for the
amounts paid.
The seizure is ostensibly made by a city
marshal, frequently -to the accompaniment
vf breaking in and smashing doors and
dragging the fusniture or other articles
to the sidewalk, to be taken back to the
dealer. All this is done with the greatest
amount of violence, so as to notify the
neighbors of the misfortunes of the
customer. who has failed to meet
the terms of his or her contract. The
purchasers under such contracts are unin-
formed as to their legal rights of redeinp-
tion, and the courts fail to give them a
proper hearing unless they are able to
hire a sharp lawyer.
Many complaints are made of losses
suffered by the parties to such contracts,
who find themselves unable to meet their
payments. , If it is a case of only one pay-
ment being missed. it would seem to be
good business policy for the instalment
houses to give the purchaser a chance to
catch up with his contract before seizing
the goods, But some of these houses seem
to grab at the opportunity to regain the
articles sold and tse them as bait to cateh
another victim of the instalment system.
‘The system of buying good’ on instal-
ments is too well established and affords
too many advantages to its supporters for
us to argue against it. It is only the fact

That Rush Memorial A. M. E.
Zion Church at 58-60 West 138th
street, has taken a new lease on
life, and intends to do bigger and
better things for its members;
community in general, was plausibly
student by the kind and quality of
service rendered last Sunday.
At the morning service the speaker
was the Rt. Rev. Bishop P. A.
Wallace of Brooke, Bishop P. A.
Wallace of Brooke, who, taking
the name from Matthew 5.10,

ST. MARTIN'S CHAPEL
"Sanctification" was the subject chosen for his sermon on Sunday morning, by the Rev. John H. Son, vicar of St. Martin's Chapel, 122nd street and Lenox avenue, taken from the text as recorded in the 19th verse of the 17th chapter of the Gospel according to St. John: "For saith I sancify myself that they also may be sanctified by the truth." These words of yearning were taken from the Prayer uttered by Jesus Christ on that fateful night of His betrayal," said the minister, beginning his sermon. "In interpreting the text, the question arises, According to Jesus of sanctified? According to Jesus of sanctified word means consecration to God by blood. Thus we see Christ was really dedicated and consecrated. "Again, we ask-What did He consecrate himself to? The answer is plain. He consecrated Himself to "the truth-for others. Greater hath no man than this that He lay down His life for His friends."
"There is an urgent need for consecrated men in our race. We are prone to dedicate ourselves for our mission, without anything that we build is lasting unless we do others." Unless it smooths cares or lessens burdens, it counts for naught. Unfortunately, in lots of instances we are setting up false claims of a benefactor. This is likely to act as a benefactor. God will bless our efforts, no matter how humble, if we are trying to serve others. Remember that you can carve into your life the beauty and glory of the life of Christ, however much you desire to consecrate yourself the Son of Man and 'walk in the King's highway.'
Flowers for the altar were contributed by Miss C. Elliott in memory of her husband. The annual spring reception will be held at Rockland Palace, Thursday evening, May 22, 1930.

pointed us.

BRIDGE ST. CHURCH
"The thing that one discovers after reading and studying the life of Jesus Christ and associates is that one cannot be the same individual spiritual. If one remains the same you may rest assured that he has been saved. In other words he is like one who is all, calls for the doctor, and then will not take the medicine he orders.
This was the central thought of the pastor, Dr. Edward Ernest Teler, Sunday morning. The text Philippines 3: 10-11. The topic was "What we might be if we reach after the better things in life." In this we must remember that the problem of improvement is with the individual and not so much with his environment.
The sermon was delivered before the usual large congregation, and asked the vast thing to a high degree of religious life. One person sounded the church.
Sunday afternoon, the pastor and a number of officers and members paid a fraternal visit to St. Johns A M E. Church on Howard Avenue. The 'Rev L. J. Derricks is the pastor.

That is they must strive to live a real Christian life, rendering real service spiritually and temporally.

"How things will look to
just after death," was the topic of
the sermon by Dr. Henry Hugh
Gregory, a Congregational Church, Grand avenue
and Lefferts place, last Sunday night.
"Any outlook upon the physical world would reveal the image of death upon it. Man is part physical and therefore bears on his visage the image of death. Death is looking back upon life from beyond the Gates of Death we see then standing out the supreme importance of the spiritual. Let us then emphasize the spiritual rather than the physical; character rather than reputation; love, rather than hate."
The announcement that Edwin Markham, the greatest living American-poet, is to be presented by the Goldstone Literary Society, Friday evening, June 13, has aroused interest among both races. The conference of Congregational Church of New England and vicinity will be our guest June 19 and 20. H. A. Winder is chairman of the committee of arrangements.
Next Sunday will be "Parent's Day. The pastor will preach at the morning Honor Thy Mother, Father," and at the evening "Honor Thy Mother." There will be special music at both services.

BOXING SOLONS REVOKE LICENSE OF PRIMO CARNERA New York Officials Act Following California "Fake" Fight
As a result of an unsatisfactory bout in California, the New York state Boxing Commission on April 30, revoked the license of Primo Carnera, Italian heavyweight who was being "built up" for a championship bout in this country. The licenses of four of Carnera's American managers were also revoked. The action of the New York Commission followed a similar action taken last week by the Boxing Commission of California and grew out of an alleged "fake" light between Carnera and Leo (Bombo) Chevalier, colored California, in Oakland. Robert Perry, one of Chevalier's seconds, tossed a towel into the ring, a token of defeat for the Negro, and apprehended and apparently able to continue. The evidence submitted to the boxing commission was that Churchill, manager of Carnera, sat back of Chevalier's corner and several times conversed with Chevalier's handlers.
Carnera has boxed in twenty contests through the South and West since January 24, when he made his American debut at Madison Square Garden. He won all his bouts and his purses totaled $150,000. His records show sixteen consecutive knockouts but it is alleged that many of his opponent's were "setups." No Ninja beat him, but against Chevallier he has been the yanker nor the California Boxing, Commissions, as the evidence gained during the investigation showed that he was"doing his best and actually was outpointing Carnera at the time the towel was tossed into the ring.
LINCOLN GIANTS WIN 10-INNING GAME ON SUNDAY Royal Giants Lose When Cannady's Home Run Breaks Up Game
Walter Cannady, second baseman for the Lincoln Giants, provided himself a hero to 4000 baseball fans at the Protectory Oval Sunday, May 4, when he came to bat between the Lincoln and Royal Giants and hit the ball over centerfield bleachers for a home run. The Lincoln Giants won the game by a score of 7-6. It made ten straight victories for them. Earlier in the afternoon they had beaten the Royals by the one-sided score of 16-1. But "Leity Starks, who was knocked out in the first game, came back to pitch one of the best tontests seen at this park all season. The Lincoln's were first to score when Rojo singled and sent Stearnes and Beckwilhome in the fourth inning. The next inning it was Stearnes' two bagger that sent Yancey, Carrell and dawn Thomas across the rubber. The Brooklynites did their first scoring in the sixth, making two runs on a single by Creek.
In the Lincoln's half of the sixth,
Billy Yancey, star shortstop, hit
his second home run for the day—
he had made one in the first game.
"The visitors scored a run in the
eighth and in the ninth, Brooks
tied the score with a home run.
The home team was unable to score
in their half of the ninth but in the
Cannady, the first man at
bat broke the by getting a homer
off McClure, who had relieved
Starks in the ninth innings.

Lincoln and Bordentown Win Point Trophy at Hampton Track Meet
Hampton Institute, Va.—For the ninth time, the cream of the C. I. A. A. track and field stars met on Armstrong held in the annual Hampton C. I. A. A. spring meet May 3, and when the last tape was broken and the final must measured six collegiate records had tucked many of them having stooled up years. The crowd was sparse, but the eleven participating colleges and high schools provided a day of thrills. Lincoln, though gaining less first places than Hampton, won the point trophy with sixy-six points and secured her first leg on the beautiful Ziff point trophy, a cup presented to the school winning it three times. Hampton pointed second, taking 7 first places, but failing to place in five events; Lancoln on the other hand, garnered all of the places in the mile, and the newly added hop stem jump.
Among the scholastics, Bordentown swamped every one, else with an avalanche of 40 points, placing first in every event except one Armstrong Tech finished second but with half as many points. The most brilliant exhibitions of the day were the pavelin throw and the collegiate mile relay both of which were record-breaking performances by Hampton men. Williams, who placed second in the national meet at the Penn carnival, lived up to his newly earned reputation, and smashed his own C.I.A. A record of last year by thirty-two feet, whipping the spear a distance of 192 feet 5 inches—thirty yards ahead of the nearest rival, Hawkins of Hampton.
The most intense rivalry of the day was manifested in the mile relay, as Hampton was aspiring for permanent possession on the Abbot Trophy, and Lincoln had bettered Hampton's time by a second at the Penn Relays. Cheyne, running this year under the collegiate banner, A. and T. of North Carolina, Hampton and Lincoln, participated in the mile relay and the 29 time was bettered by a second and a half Cheyne drew the inside track with Brown of Hampton beside him and A. and T. on the outside, Brown stroked out at a burning pace, but both Luk- of Lincoln and the A. and T. starter overhailed him. Callows picked up but things looked dark for Hampton as Derry stroked in with a 24-yard lead for Lincoln and Cheyne, second full, 100-yard record holder, took the baton, dug up to Fisher and cut off ten yards of the Lincoln lead. With the opportune advantage gained by Tull, "Rock" Early, Hampton junior, and the holder of the C. L. A. 440-record, let out. It was a perfect race. Inch by inch Lincoln-
12-yard lead dropped and thought on the half lap. Lloyd pulled slightly away. Early picked him up on the curve, shot past him and runnig absolute precision led in the field by ten yards. Early picked a second from the 44-foot that he had made earlier in the afternoon when he shattered Ucko's four-year old time.
Both Manassas and Rooker 1 Washington High of Norfolk had two legs on the Virginia High School Relay Cup, and Pooker 1 tautly crunched the third leg winning permanent possession Lambert and Skinner did exceptionally well ready to Lloyd; Camnady to Yancey to Lloyd; Yancey to Lloyd and Mechure to Creek to Hind sprint.

North Carolina Eagles Lose to A. & T., But Trounce Livingstone
College Park, Durham, N. C.
The North Carolina Eagles lost a rather ragged ball-game to A. and T. College on Monday, April 28 by the score of 10 to 6. Each team scored in the first inning and there was a sprinkling of runs throughout The Eagles were leading at the beginning of the 5th, but the A. and I. aggregation fell on the hooks of Hubbard and scored 4 runs to take the lead which was never in doubt from that time until the 9th when they increased their margin by scoring 3 more to put the game on ice
The batteries for A. and T. Taylor and Stewart while Hubbard and Caldwell worked for the Eagles. Livingstone's crack team with a record of eight victories and three defeats invaded the sacred precincts of the North Carolina College diamond and found the going too rough for them and they finally acknowledged defeat after putting up one of the scrappiest exhibitions seen on the local diamond this season. Crudup's Eagles with all the stamina or veterans, played an uphill game with plenty of fight and grit in evidence as the box-score will reveal. North Carolina tossed away a two-run lead in the sixth inning when the Livingstone boys bobbedarded golf, pitching for North Carolina, and piled up 4 runs to the lead which was all of the second due by team team until the ninth inning when North Carolina came from behind and drove in three runs to win by the score of 9-8.
Gould's pitching was the outstanding feature of the game until he was relieved by Vinson who later became the star on the tracas. Eight strikeouts were credited to Gould during the six innings he worked Vinson relieving Gould in the eighth was in good form and won the game in the ninth by driving in the winning run. He played despite the errors and was badly contested from start to finish. Score by innings.

At The New Douglass
There have been greater Barthelness pictures since the days of the unforgettable "Broken Blossoms", but the greatest of them all is the latest, "Son of the Gods" which will be seen at the New Douglas Theatre for five days beginning Saturday, May 10.
Very rarely does the screen, even in its most brilliant productions offer so perfect a combination of story, star, cast and setting. Dick Barthelness, one of the most appealing actors now appearing before the American public, has never exerted more forcefully the magic of his personality. The story of the boy, brought up as a Chinese, believing he is a Chinese, living as an alien amid the scourge and uncomprehending Americans, won our sympathy and retained it to the end. This role will always occupy a high position in the list of Barthelness achievements.

The photoplay feature is. "The Cohens and Kellys in Scotland."
At The Alhambra Theatre
Tim Moore is showing them how he won the hearts of Broadway and Paris.

Margaret Simms, the lovely "Het Chocolates" star, and Honey Brown provide a feast of singing and dancing. Honors as solo singers are taken by James A. Lillard, popular robust baritone, and a charming soprano, Regina Spain who is new to the local stage and a most welcome acquisition.
"That Bad Boy," a comedy-drama, affords little Artie Cain a wonderful opportunity as a kid full of interest and she both looks and plays to the limit.
Bessie Smith, in her classic picture, "St. Louis Blues," is presented in answer to general public demand.

MAULIES
By HALLIE QUEEN.
Washington, D. C.—We went to Haiti on Saturday evening, May 3. We saw a young man of our own day and friendship, acting as captain guide his ship to the Magic Isle and roll back to our enchanted eyes the struggles and triumphs of a black people, out of oppressed peasantry into dominant empire. We saw reemarnated the figure of Christophe and visualized the fortress of San Souce. We sensed the psychology behind the voodoo and heard it merge into the ballad and the opera score. We realized that all this was not fantasy but a bit of actual Negro history, idealized and felt a new pride in being black. The Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity presented "Black Empire," an operetta in two acts and seven scenes, suggested by the life of Christophe, black emperor of Haiti.
Practically all of the work incidental to the presentation was done by student members of the fraternity. Walter I. Merrick, a member of the junior medical class, who wrote the musical score, has upon him the work of a genius. Had he merely interpreted the part of Horatius Geoffrey. English professor, he would have been remembered as an excellent delineator of character, but his musical score has put him far above that characterization. The rich contralto voice of Louse Burge was a "hind" and a revelation, the graceful form of Louse against the cold stones of San Sousi stays, in the memory. The oblacous voice of her was another of her terpsichorean triumphs, and we will look in our mind's eye the tragic figure of Joseph Hill as he sat on his throne bearing an unconscious tattoo to the music of the fateful tom-tom
We hope that other groups and other cities can see the play. It is too magnificent an effort to die with one performance. It is Haiti, played by Negroes with their hearts and souls in what they are doing.
The young man to whom we referred at the beginning of this article is Wilbur Strickland, who collaborated in the book and lyrics and dances. Thomas Winston and Olen Logn contributed other lyrics, the very effective scenes and costumes were designed by Prof Hilary Robinson. Adrienne Marshall collaborated in the dances Prof Lulu D Childers directed the choruses, orchestration was by Andrew Lucke, the orchestra was under the direction of Henry Lee Grant, piano music by Loree Brown and electrical effects by Frederick Pelham Belkan V. Lawson was business manager.

Actors Pay Tribute To Dr. Garner and Church
A goodly audience assembled Sunday afternoon at Grace Congregational Church for a program "The Church and the Theatre" intended to be an appreciation of and by artists in the Great Show World complimentary to Grace Congregational Church and its pastor, the Rev Dr A.

The sponsors of the program were the University of Tennessee—Tennessee Miller being out of town, and Rene McLendon, who was to have presided, being ill, her doctor having ordered her to go to the hospital the next day. Monday.
Leigh Whipner took Mrs. McLendon's place. Dr. Garner welcomed the audience and artists, and Mr. Whipner announced the participants.

DAVID JOHNSON MUSIC STUDIO PUPILS MAKE FINE SHOWING IN TENTH ANNUAL
The auditorium of the St. Mark's Roman Catholic Church parish house, 57 West 138th street, was filled with an appreciative group of friends, relatives and well-wishers of the pupils and director of the David Johnson Music Studio of 66 West 140th street on Friday evening, May 2, for the tenth annual pupils' recital, under Mr. Johnson's direction.
A pleasing departure from the usual pupils' recital, as compared with former similar affairs, was the presenting on the program of only those pupils who were prepared to give meritorious performances, but even so there were nineteen numbers listed. The result was a well balanced and enjoyable recital, with several features that deserve a more detailed mention than space will permit.
There was one unpleasant feature, which may be charged against the ushers, and that was the continuing parade of late-comers, who made no effort to tread lightly, but searched here and there for the few remaining seats with shoe heels tapping a rat-a-tat accompaniment to the musical endeavors of the performers.
Another disagreeable element, chargeable only to certain people in the audience, was an utter disregard for the sensibilities of those in the vicinity of these certain people who wanted to hear the music, but had, instead to listen to a continual chatter, in unrepressed tones, about these people's own private concerns. A friend inquired of this reviewer as to what these people came to the concert for. There was an answer—but it, was advisedly reserved.
But the program itself was above the ordinary. Each number disclosed evidence of the fact that Mr. Johnson is, a qualified, painstaking instructor of young violinists and pianists, and even the tiniest tots did credit to their tutor. On the program were pupils who had shown the calibre of their attainment in competition with other music pupils of all races in the city-wide contests conducted annually by the New York Music Week Association, including one gold and two silver medal winners.
These included Raymond Waters, 10, violin, gold medal, David Johnson, Jr., 14, violin, and Griselda Harewood, of Brooklyn, 14, piano, silver medals.
Outstanding features of the program were the numbers by young Waters, who played the Humoreske by Dvorak and Perpetuum Mobile by Bohm, piano numbers by Miss Harewood, who played the Bach Manuet (from Partita 1 in B Flat); "Juba" from Deit's "In the Bottoms" (Suite), and Air de Ballet by Mozkowski, and violin numbers by young Johnson, the Concerto, No. 7, by deBorot (played recently in the 1930 Music Week contest, in which David won the highest possible rating, (80 per cent) and the Praeludum and Allegro by Pugnani-Kreisler. All were played superbly and the youthful artists were given ovations by the appreciative audience.
Others who took part were Austin Hall, violin; Henry Brown and Dinmore Williams, piano (four hands); Albert Mardowell, violin, Harold Goring, Norman Smith, violin duet; Evelyn Parker, violin, Luthor Lipsett, violin, (Rode's Concerto, No. 8, first movement, with orchestra); Hazel Waters, piano; John Brown, piano, Dorothy Marks, violin; Kidwina Coker, violin (in violin quartet that won highest honor in 1930 Music Week district contest with Hall, Waters and Miss Marks).
Other features were the orchestra composed of students, with several adults as guest musicians, which played Suppe's Light Cavalry Overture, Godard's Bercuse and the Poet and Peasant Overture, under Mr. Johnson's direction, and a Rhythm Orchestra, composed of a number of the youngsters, who, with violin, piano, snare and bass drums, tambourines and clappers, exhibited a keen sense of music, rhythmic content.
Dancing followed the program.

Prampin's Music School In 12th Annual Recital
Pupils of the Harry-Laura Prampin School of Music, 131 West 130th street, were presented in their twelfth annual concert on Friday evening, May 2, in the Imperial Elks' Auditorium, West 129th street, before a large audience of admiring friends.
Mr. Prampin specializes, if that term may be used, on all the wing instruments, the trumpet particularly, but his school curriculum includes as well all the string and percussion instruments and the piano.
Perhaps the strongest attraction of this program was the trumpet playing by a little chap, Robert Moore, programmed as a first year pupil, who not only rendered a striking and well executed solo, "My song of songs," but also did yeoman work as the only trumpeter in the orchestra of junior pupils, and in the orchestra that played for dancing following the program. His playing in the Poet and Peasant number was worthy of a more matured performer.
As is usual, Mr. Prampin presented a group of pupils in a saxophone contest, but, contrary to former practices, he did not call upon a board of judges to make the decision as to the winner, but upon a board of judges to make the decision as to the winner leaving that to the audience, as expressed by the measure of their acclaim. This proved to be not only a popular method, but also one that disclosed the musical keenness and excellent judgment of the listeners.
The students taking part in the contest were Miss Mary Clark, Sam Samuels, Sam Weiss, Henri Steglich and Leroy Harper. Each played a selection of her or his own choice, but the numbers chosen were calculated to exhibit the virtuosity and interpretative ability of each entrant. At conclusion, the director lined up the performers on the stage and asked the audience to express its choice by the volume of its applause during a definite period. It was evident from the first round as to who was considered the winner, but to make sure there was no misunderstanding and that each participant received a due need of fair play, the call was given until only Steglich and Harper remained.
The final call showed Steglich the winner, as it had shown from the beginning, and the verdict of the audience was the same as that of such qualified judges as were in the audience. Accordingly, the 14-kart gold medal was awarded to Mr. Steglich.
Mr. Prampin presented some bright and well trained young pupils on the program, those taking part, aside from the trumpeter and saxophonist, being James Bartlett, banjo, Joyce Burton, Leona Lookhart, Frances Kearney and Margaret Winston, pianist, Elmer Wills, xylophone; Otholine Brown, violin (winner of oral test in "Fundamentals of Music"), and a junior orchestra of pupils who had from six months to one year of instruction, with Joyce Burton conducting.
Following the program, the U-Tell-Lim-Orchestra, all pupils, Mr Pramie, conducting, furnished music for dancing.

Preparations Complete For Martin-Smith Recital
Preparations for 23rd annual recital and dance of the Martin-Smith Music School, Inc. are complete.
Twenty-three years ago, the late David I Martin started a series of concerts, hoping thereby to show the result of the splendid work he had been doing and to try to raise funds to carry on the work which has attracted the attention of people all over the country.
Since Mr. Martin's death, his widow has been carrying on the work, with the assistance of her son, David, and daughter Gertrude, who have also proven that their father's labor was not in vain.
These events have been looked forward to by hundreds in the past and the work is one of the most worthy in the city.
The recital will begin at 8:30 sharp and it is to be hoped that the lovers of the best in music be in their seats on time.

Dr. ANNA C. JOHNSON
By RUTH R. DENNIS.
Of course, everyone of consequence in Harlem has heard of Dr. Anna Cooper Johnson, whose offices are located on the first floor of the former Vincent Sanatorium building, but you must see, as I did, this gracious and charming person of not yet thirty summers, and then you can understand the reason of her miraculous accomplishments. Dr Johnson was born in Virginia and received her education in New York City, graduating from Wadleigh High School and Columbia University, School of Dentistry, in 1927. It has been said, that college training totally unifies a woman for married life, but we find that contradicted in this instance. Before Dr Johnson ever thought of becoming a dentist, she worked side by side with her husband, Dr Earle Johnson the years in their laboratory, doing mechanical dentistry. Then a suggestion was made that she study for the profession.
"I was horrified at first," Dr. Johnson said "and felt that I would faint it. I ever attempted an extract on, but the more I thought of it, well, the less repellent became the idea, so here I am."
Thus through years of strenuous preparation and study, husband and wife, instead of drilling apart, seemed drawn closer together. With pleasing tributes of admiration, Dr. Earle Johnson shows the walls go.

"We are here," said Dr. Johnson, "to help Harlem. We will be happy to cooperate with all the dentists of Harlem to give the public the benefit of the best in surgery and all other phases of the work. Our price is the same to all, whether rich or poor. Our motto is: Honesty and Equality."
A distinguished honor was conferred upon Dr. Earle Johnson a short while ago when he was invited to demonstrate at the Hotel Pennsylvania the use of a new product called "Hekoloth." Dr. Anna Cooper Johnson is much earnest about his work, and satisfied with his testimony that a woman, if she has the preparation for her work, can be successful, despite the handicap of sex.
One of her most difficult cases was that of cancer of the jaw. The entire jaw was eaten away, but after four months' treatment the patient who had been rejected by dentists, could eat, and for the past two years the treatment proved successful beyond all expectations.
"Any young man and woman can do the same," said Dr. Johnson. "all you need to do is to want to accomplish something badly enough and go after it. Difficulties will dissolve like snow and one will say after the objective is won—I doubt that I could do it again but I did it once and that is enough. Too much credit cannot be given such characters. Dr. Johnson, because they are not only an inspiration for the coming generations, but an incentive to youth of today and proof conclusive to the world that the ability to achieve is not confined to color or race.

"I SUFFERED so much last spring with my right side, severe pains and a weakness in my back," says Mrs. Cora Smith, 422 Pellham St., Montgomery, Ala. "At times it seemed I could not stand it. When I would have to stand on my feet the pain was very bad. I would get so weak I knew I must take something. I had heard so much of Cardui I decided to try it. After taking two bottles, I felt better. I didn't suffer quite so much. I kept on taking Cardui, and after six bottles I felt all right. I can highly recommend Cardui."
Just about two years ago, I was sick and nervous," writes Mrs. Gertrude Dickey, 449 Aborcorn St., Savannah, Ga. "I was so weak I did not feel like doing my work. I dragged around. A friend told me of Cardui. I took three bottles, and there was a great improvement in my condition. I grew better and stronger than I had been in a long time."
DURING. my last year in high school, I felt very weak and run-down," writes Miss Margaret Burris, 802 E. Vine Ave., Knoxville, Tenn. "Several of my friends told me about Cardul and suggested that I try it. When I went to college I weighed 95 pounds, so I decided to try

BEAUTY AND HEALTH
BY OLIVIA D. TUCKER
Pharmacist and Chemist
In the following issues of The New York Age, this column will bring to you every week beauty talks and helpful hints on Beauty, and the preparations used to produce it. Offtimes our personal, appearance makes the first impression by which we are judged, and in some cases, personal beauty is a better introduction than any letter.
Beauty is the first present Nature gives to women, and the first it takes away. This truism, declared by an observant writer, contains a warning to those who would preserve this priceless gift. Its preservation has been the object of most women since the world began. Its deterioration and one of the greatest regrets that can come to women.
Beauty and health' are the chief sources of happiness, and to go back to those ancient times, when the culture of beauty was an important part of living, you will find that the poets have always sung its praises, painters have portrayed its qualities and the world in general knows it as the most desirable attribute of the outward physical woman. Of times we go into a store, and depend on the clerk alone to give us the right type of cream, powder, rouge and other preparations for our skin, when he knows nothing whatever about our particular type of skin. Our money for cosmetics is sent and we do not at all times get a suitable powder, cream, or whatever we purchase, and on us ing it, we find that the preparation bought does not always give the satisfactory results we desire.
This column is edited specially to correct such errors, and to assist in bringing out those features which at times convey the first impression. Next week, different types of facialreams will be discussed.

Cardui, and when the school year was up I weighed 130 pounds. I would advise any person who is neryous, weak and in a run-down condition to take Cardui, for I am sure it will do them good. After taking Cardui, I am not nervous any more, and I am in the best of health."
"I FOUND myself very weak," writes Miss Mattie Knox, 620 Stephens St., Memphis, Tenn. "My back ached. I was always tired and did not feel well enough to enjoy pleasures as I should. A friend of mine suggested that I try Cardui, which I did, and it helped me so much that I am glad to recommend it to others. I have told several of my friends about it. Some of them have taken three or four bottles of Cardui. My mother also has taken it and found it a wonderful tonic."
"BEFORE taking Cardui, I was very nervous," writes Mrs. Leah C. Scales, 1404 Fourteenth Ave., Nashville, Tenn. "I was weak and rundown, having severe headaches constantly and very irregular. I could not stand on my feet to do my work. After taking Cardul, I was very much better. I feel entirely different. I can stand on my feet for hours to do my work. It is wonderful."

holders on its books than any other insutance corboration in America,
does not employ any Negroes In its offices, In effect, the reason,
as set forth by the company's vice-president and genefal counsel, is
the sensitive face feelings of the company's present employees, who
arc, supposedly, all wi.ite. In words, we are told that'as these em-
ployees are all of one hue, to employ any of a different due would

Of financial interest. Usually, in

Of race, And usually these are the

substantial investments in its Susi

on moral and contact grounds.
1 the fiscal Gigures cited by Mr.
Barrington are really correct, The
Metropolitan Company's diserim-
ination’ may be protested with
righteousness on euher oF ‘both
premises. Contact, however, is the
stronger of the stwo to advance,
if the racial phase is to be brought
into the contention, “And as this
bias already been” done by the
spokesman for the insurance vom-
pany, this aspect may be steessed.
In this phase of it, Negroes in
this city, especially those im Har-
lem, should be able to udvance con-
vineing argument as to why one

this. section should have Negro
employees.
‘The statement that the objection
to the employment. of Negroes is
due solely tothe ill-feelings it
would generate among the com

Taken on its face value, yet there
is-no valid. reason why the state~
ment should be swallowed and the
matter ended, The company's
branch office in West 125th street
ig sufficient proof for the conten-
tion that if for no other reason
than contact, the Negro is entitled
to. some recognition in the cont
pany’s clerical personnel. Bur they

For Business~For Pleasure
WHY wait three days eda aniwer when you
can get it in three minutes by telephone?
"By telephone, questions are answered ‘as they are
raised, negotiations quickly completed, orders given
for production—by simply lifting the receiver.
Business men use the, telephone because it projects
their personality into wider fields of influence—gets
«things settlel—keeps them abreast of the times and
up with competition, .
In the home the clear, swift, out-of-town service keeps
old friendship ties flourishing, eliminates worry and
brings renewed pleasure.
If you are pot using this modern service try it. See
for yourself what it will do for you. The serv-
ice, is swift and dependable and costs very little. ®

country that that the colored Amer:

and over emphasis upon the rapid

by quiet maneuvres in politics, ec
onomics, publicity, the stage, the
press, and now the radio.’ Hi

distorted from their serious and con.
structive settings, his sufferings ar
laughed at, his clamor for juste
