Harlem Doctors Quit Medical Body A REAL HOME PAPER Dependable Reliable Progressive Of Local and National Scope The New York Age CLASSIFIED ADVERTISEMENTS Reach the People and Bring Results At Small Cost DOCTORS QUIT NORTH HARLEM SOCIETY TO FORM NEW MEDICAL BODY; OLD BODY REPUDIATED This Action Comes As Result of Dissatisfaction Aroused Over Recent Reorganization Of Harlem Hospital Visiting Staff Declaring that the attitudes and actions of a particular group of doctors who are members of the North Harlem Medical Association with regard to the changes in the staffs of visiting doctors and surgeons at Harlem Hospital brought about through the widely heralded reorganization, some thirty-five of fifty-four financial members, including the president and secretary, tendered their resignations as members of the North Harlem group on Satur- Immediately following this outright repudiation of recent activities in the senior body, the despatched group named a committee to make plans for a society based upon principles and aims entirely different fro mthose of any other existing society. This committee is composed of Dr. James L. Wilson, Allen B. Graves, Ernest R. Alexander, Aubrey Maynard and Farrow Allen. The doctors Left Out Leader, of this movement say that several physicians in the community who have not hitherto affiliated with the North Harlem Society have signified their intentions to become members of the new society. It is stated further that some of the members of the North Harlem group have not been invited to relinquish their membership with that body, or given an opportunity for affiliation with the proposed organization, as it is felt that they will not be desirable recipients. In giving voice to reasons actuating them to taking this radical, and revolutionary step, several of the physicians have expressed themselves in strong-terms concerning what they assert is conduct "undigested and unworthy of a medical society." Dr. Ernest R. Alexander, in a formal statement, preceding the submission of his resignation, said: "The conduct of the meeting of the medical society last Thursday was unengaged and unworthy of a medical society, and far beyond the behaviour to be expected of college men. Much time was taken up with abusive personalities. For several meetings time has been wasted with confidence and cooperation with Harlem Hospital authorities, only to be repudiated or questioned at the next. A Waste of Time "The program which had been prepared this week was never reached—or at least had not been reached when I left well after midnight. So far as I am concerned, continued attendance at such meetings is, not only distasteful, but is also a waste of time and energy which I shall avoid in the future." Commenting on what he termed a necessity for the formation of a new medical society, Dr. Aubrey Maynard said: "The North Harlem Medical Society has unfortunately deteriorated into an unstable and unsatisfactory body, not at all representative of fine principles, character or ideals that should animate a group of physicians. Through its petty squabbles, its excavating attitudes, its unreasoning attitude, the entire lack of dignity in its proceedings, it has caused the public to book with disfavor and a certain amused contempt upon the physicians of this community. "I am therefore doing the thing which seems to me necessary for the preservation of both my personal and professional integrity in withdrawing from the North Harlem Medical Society, in company with men of similar ideals and of vision. I shall be most happy to join in the formation of a medical society that shall foster the highest standards in body progress and harmony and be cognizant of its position in the community." To Work For Co-operation Dr. Allen R. Graves outlined some of the ideas underlying the proposed organization as "based upon the spirit of cooperation. To cooperate with the authorities at the Harlem Hospital in the Department of Hospitals, in the Department of Health, and all existing health agencies; to build up for our profession and the community a sound organization composed of sound thinking men to do constructive work for the advancement of the best interests of the community, of the profession, of the hospital and of the race. It is to fight no individual or organization, but rather to help in anything and in any way to render the true and character of service that a group of this character can (Continued on Page Three) 35 J.

Nail, prominent real estate and business man of Harlem, and partner in the firm of Nail and Parker, 145 West 135th street, has been elected into membership of the Real Estate Board of New York, Inc.

John Wesley Johnson, was dead, killed in the twinkling of an eye. The silver anniversary of his work in the parish which he founded a quarter century ago had been looked forward to by priest and people with keenest expectation. Elaborate plans had been made for its observance—but the Supreme Ruler of human destinies ordered otherwise The minister's silver anniversary's celebration was not with his people here—but with his Creator in the realms above. Dr. Johnson, it is reported, had taken a bath in preparation for dressing to go to the Harlem auditorium for the anniversary celebration. Knowing that it would be a late hour when the celebration ended, he went to his room for a brief period of rest. Then, a few minutes later, when his wife, who has been his everpresent helper, went to the room, she found her husband stricken and in the last throes of a loss. Helen Stewart Aw In Westchester P As Eleanor Webb Contest Ends With Between Edna Gibb White Plains, N. Y.-On Thursday night, May 15, an excited group of young ladies gathered in the home of Mrs. Dorothy Scott, when the Westchester Popularity Contest officially closed. Each watched tensely for all were anxious to know who the successful contestants were. A little after midnight, when all the votes and money, had been counted, Mrs. Scott read off the returns of the contest and it was found that the surprising total of 106,595 votes had been brought in by the seven contestants from the seven counties. The final standing was: Helen Stewart, Mt. Vernon, 20,100 Eleanor Webb, Yonkers, 18,925 Fdna Gibba, Elmsford, 15,500 Dorothy Gee, Tuckahoe, 15,500 Virginia Griffin, Tarrytown, 15,360 Elizabeth Howard, Polham, 13,050 Helen Gibson, White Plains, 8,160 The awards and 'distributions of prizes were not made until the following night; Friday, when a reception and dance was held at the Longview Community House, Longview and Maple avenues. On that night, before friends and admirers the girls received their prizes. The program was officially opened by Miss Bertha L. Herrington, president of the Westchester Federation of Women's Clubs, under whose auspices the contest was staged. In a short address she thanked the many county chairmen, the public, Mrs. Dorothy Scott, contest chairman, and The New York Age for their support in making this contest so successful. NEW YORK, N. Y., SATURDAY, ing battle with death. A physician was hastily summoned, but it was to no avail, for death had finished its work. Came Here In 1904 In 1904, the New York Protestant Episcopal City Mission Society chose the Rev. John Wesley Johnson, to inaugurate a mission work among Negroes of New York City, and he was given the title of city missionary. What was then known as the San Juan District offered a fertile field for evangelizing activities, and it was in this neighborhood, at 175 West 53rd street, just at the edge of the district, which included the territory as far down as 59th street, through Broadway Columbus and Amsterdam avenues, that Mr. Johnson laid the foundations for the present magnificent and effective work being done at St. Cyprian's. Lack of equipment, there being neither chairs, prayer books or bibles did not daint the worker, but caused him to throw his whole heart and soul into the accomplishment of the task. The mission soon overflowed the building it occupied, and before long five adjoining houses were secured, all thrown into one, serving as chapel and parish house combined. And as the mission continued its growth, there came the time when the old building had to be rased and a modern chapel (Continued on Last Page) warded First Prize Popularity Contest Wins Second Place Tie For Third Place os and Dorothy Gee ELIZABETH HOWARD ```markdown ``` be used for a scholarship fund to send some worthy girl to college.

Walker Building For Its 1st Of a Chain of Health Centers Education Program Sponsored For Last Sunday Afternoon By Eureka Temple Member Barred By Director Dr. Shirley W. Wynne, Health Commissioner, City of New York, announces that final papers have been drawn and the ease signed for the taking over by the gray stone building at 108-110 West 136th street, long known as the M36th, Walker Studio, for the first of a chain of Health Centers to be opened throughout the city during the next four years in carrying out the plan of the Health Department for closer cooperation with physicians and with the public in preventing disease. The structure is being painted throughout and generally refurbished for the new activities which will occupy it about June 1. Appropriate exercises, will mark the opening of the Center, at an exact date to be announced, and it is confidently expected that Mayor James J. Walker will be present in person. Music will be a special feature. Harlem Needs Are Urgent In talking with The Age, Commissioner Wynne said: "The needs of Harlem are most urgent. The rates for infant mortality and contagion are higher there than in any other single area in the five boroughs. "Among the causes of infant mortality, premature birth is the highest; respiratory disease second, and gastro-intestinal diseases third, Children of colored parents suffer more from malnutrition and rickets than those of white parentage. Parents of white parents are more violent and statistics show that tuberculosis is considerably higher among the colored population of cities than among the whites. "There are many reasons back of those conditions of course: poor wages causing poor living conditions; the effort of people recently arrived in this city and accustomed to country life, to adapt themselves to city ways; congested living conditions; lack of knowledge of health fundamentals such as what to eat and how to dress; and failure to establish immunity to certain diseases. "Naturally, with a health center right in the midst of these condi- Plans, for the holding of an educational rally under auspices of Eureka Temple, No. 22, Daughter Elks, managed by Mrs. Bessie Walker, chairman of the committee which is authorized to raise money for the temple, were knocked askey last Sunday when James B. Allen, state director of education, advised Eureka Temple that unless a special dispensation was gotten from Commissioner of Education Hueston of Gary, Ind, the educational day program could not be carried. As applications for the dispensation, both by mail and wire, failed to bring response from Hueston, all of the elaborate arrangements which had been made by Mrs. Walker, including a big parade headed by the Eureka Temple Band, and a program featuring Ada Ward, late of "Blackbirds," and Daniel Haynes of "The Green Pastures," were knocked in the head. According to a letter under seal of the Temple, directing Mrs. Walker that Director Allen's ruling served as an injunction, it appears that Commissioner Hueston had written suggesting that dispensation be written for, which was done by the Temple, and a letter to Mrs. Walker from Grand Daughter Ruler Abbie M. Johnson of Philadelphia stated that a telegram had been sent the Commissioner, asking that the dispensation be granted. Both requests were futile. Blames Director Allen Mrs. Walker attributes the opposition of Director Allen to the fact that she had refused to agree to turn over what money might be raised directly to him, as her orders from General Chairman Elizabeth Carter of Philadelphia, head of the female department of finance required to report be made to the chairman, who would report to the Grand Daughter Secretary, who would be turn report to the Health Commissioner tions, we can deal with them most directly. Already we have the eager interest of the progressive citizens of Harlem in this enterprise." To Centralize Activities. In the health center will be centralized not only the activities and services of the Health Department, but also the services of private organizations engaged in public health work, such as the Harlem Tuberculosis and Health Association and the Henry Street Visiting Nurse Service, both located now in the N.Y. Urban League building at 204 West 180th street. The New York Diet Kitchen Association is cooperating with the health center plans by maintaining it here to serve those who are not near the Department of Health's Baby Health Stations.' The Department of Health will maintain at the Central Harlem Health Center a prenatal clinic, the (Continued on Page Three) In Sponsored For ernoon By Eureka Barred By Director Grand Temple Then this body would report direct to the Grand Lodge, which has absolute control of the administration of the scho- larship fund which is handled by the Department of Education Mrs Walker charges that the women raise large sums for this fund but have no say so in the awarding of scholarships, and their requests have been steadfastly ignored. She cited instances where several of the most loyal and faithful of the women workers here in New York City have failed to receive consideration in the awarding of scholarships. She asserts that under the law requiring boys and girls reaching the age of 18 to join the temples and lodges there are 17 or 18 each year added to the enrollment from New York and that although many of them are struggling for an education they are given no assistance from the grand lodge fund. Resigned Commission The alleged failure of a recent oratorical contest sponsored by Director Allen, in which the Daughter Fiks did not cooperate, is blamed upon her, says Mrs. Walker, and that when she announced her program for this educational rally she had been told by one of five women who had served on this committee that unless she turned the receipts over to Mr. Allen he would put an injunction on the affair. This, charges Mrs. Walker, is what happened and many people were turned away from Mother A.M. E. Zion Church on Sunday afternoon, the place and time of the proposed program As a result of this development, Mrs. Walker has returned her commission to the grand daughter ruler, stating that she absolutely refuses to work with or under Director Allen, at the same time defending the program will be rendered at a later Mother Zion, with Mrs. Walker as chairman, but not for the benefit of the Education Department. No Love Affairs or Discussion of a Proposed Marriage With Assailant; Church Backs Pastor Dr. J. W. Brown, pastor of Mother A. M. E. Zlon Church, refuses to make a statement, other than what was made Sunday morning, May 18, 1930, from his pulpit. He referred the representatives of the papers to his attorney, John Clifford Hawkins. Mr. Hawkins' statement is as follows: "It is true that Mrs. Justine Alexander has entered a suit against Dr. Brown for damages. There appears to be no justification for this suit. Dr. Brown does not know the excuse for the attack nor the reason for the suit. We do not believe that the action is brought in good faith. We believe that the action is brought to damage his reputation and good name in the community. "The defense of this action will be prosecuted to the limit with a view of establishing the motive for this persecution that has been attempted to be heaped upon Dr. Brown." Taking under consideration the physical assault made by a Mrs. Justine Alexander of 158 West 131st street upon the Rev. Dr. James W. Brown, pastor of Mother A. M. E. Zion Church, this city, the board of trustees of that church unanimously passed a vote of confidence and trust in the probity and moral inno- A. EDWARD P. MULROONEY Formerly head of the Harlem Police, was appointed Police Commissioner to succeed Grover Whalen on Tuesday. Inspector Mulrooney Succeeds Whalen As Police Commissioner Edward P. Mulrooney, deputy chief inspector of the New York City Police Department was selected Tuesday by Mayor James J. Walker to succeed Grover Whalen as Commissioner of Police. His appointment was announced Tuesday afternoon. Mr. Mulrooney entered the Police Department as a patrolman when the late Theodore Rosevelt was Commissioner more than thirty years ago and rose step by step through every branch of the department. As a detective he distinguished himself for his bravery and level-headedness. When George V. McLoughlin became Police Commissioner, he was selected to head the police force in Harlem, being commander of the 32nd Precinct. His leadership and lack of prejudice won him many friends in Harlem. He was promoted to deputy inspector and later to inspector under Commissioner Warren and when Grover Whalen took over the Department he was appointed head of the Detective Bureau, with the rank of deputy chief inspector. His leadership in this department won him fame throughout the city. His appointment succeeded Mr. Whalen is generally looked upon as one of the best Mayor Walker has made. In a formal statement, Dr. Brown declares the absence of an, provocation for the attack, and asserts that there had been no passages of love or discussion of divorce or marriage between Mrs. Alexander and himself. Mrs. Alexander was formerly Justine Mitchell of Macon, Ga., it is reported, and is said to be separated from her husband. Pastor Makes Statement Dr. Brown's statement reads as follows: "On Saturday morning, May 10, 1930, between 10 and 11 oclock, Mrs. Justine Alexander came into the church office at which time the secretaries were present. She stated 'she would like to see me. Thinking she wanted to talk on matters pertaining to the work of the church I immediately, invited her into the study. Upon entering she asked if I was going to marry Miss Andrades Lindsay. I answered in the affirmative.' She sprang at my face and attempted to do me bodily harm. Astounded at her uncalled for and unlady-like conduct, I pushed her from me. During the struggle the assistant pastor and secretaries appeared upon the scene and suggested that I go into another room. I did not see Mrs. Alexander after that. "The assault upon me came like a thunderbolt from a clear sky. There had been no provocation to warrant it. There had been no argument of any kind. I have had no love affair with the party in question and have never discussed with her the subject of divorce or marriage at any time or place. Marriage a. Personal Matter "I regard marriage as a very personal matter and think one ought to be free to choose his or her own helpmate. This I know to be the proper course to pursue and the right way to live. I have been consistent in my condemnation of those living a loose life by practicing what I preach. "Any printed statements regarding the unprovoked and malicious assault upon me were given publicity without first getting a statement from me. I have not refused to see a newspaper representative either at my home or the church office. I do not propose to be brought into any controversy by mudslinging journals. While the incident is to be deeply regretted I have abiding faith in the farness of the general public and the members of my congregation to believe in me and the untreatable truthfulness of this statement."

The new recreation field will offer a place for hand ball, volley ball, deck tennis, paddle tennis, croquet and baseball. And best of all perhaps, is the new dining lodge. Xobody would recognize the old shack since it has been enlarged and enclosed and furnished with chairs instead of benches!

Benton of the West 135th street police station, after they had been charged by Jesus Dionis, with robbing him. According to the story, Dionis, who lives at 240 West 143rd street told police, the two men came to his apartment, knocked on the door and when he opened it they knocked him unconscious. Entering the apartment, Dionis says the men started to ransack the place. Before they got through gathering all they wanted to cart away, Dionis regained consciousness and ran into the street where he hailed Patrolman Benton. Rushing to the house the police officer arrested both men as they were leaving with all of Dionis's and a roomer's clothing, valued at $120. They were held without bail for examination.

The part of "Launceur Gobou" will be played in such manner by Mr. Johns as to create the most enjoyable laughter. The pastor, officers, and re-union committee of Mount Olivet decided that, since there is an almost universal revival of interest in Shakespearian plays, they could do no better in the way of a re-union program than to present to Harlem's public "The Merchant of Venice," considered by many Shakespeare's masterpiece. They sincerely hope that this effort will mark the beginning of a movement in Harlem for drama of the higher type. Vice president Myles A. Paige presided in the absence of the president, David A.

Mrs. Mollie Elkins Dies After Operation At Presbyterian Hospital Mrs. Mollie Sullivan Elkins, wife of William C. Elkins, head of the Dextra Male Chorus and a nationally known choral director, died at the Presbyterian Hospital Sunday following an operation for a complication of diseases. Blood transfusion was resorted to but the patient failed to rally following the operation. The late Mrs. Elkins was born in Baton Rouge, La., but her parent moved to Lawrence Kan., when she was a small girl. Here she became acquainted with the late Geo Walker, who later became the dean of the Negro theatrical profession. After completing the public schools of Lawrence, she moved to Chicago and later came to New York where she joined the then world renowned Williams and Walker Company. She also played on the stage with Ernest Hogan and the Cole and Johnston troupes. In 1907 the then Miss Sullurra married William C. Elkins, himself a featured member of the Williams and Walker Company. The people were devoted to each other throughout their married life. Besides her husband, she is survived by a father-in-law, a brother-in-law, a niece and several other relatives. Funeral services were held at M'clock. Tuesday, May 20, at Mather A. M. E.

It admitted that the qu qus of Judge Parker for the served thorough scrutiny, but it s his credit those Senators who scrutiny and based their votes either Republican leadership in nor in the White House she well in the Parker episode, whil ment of the leading Republican in was unworthy of its anteceden An interesting sidelight was thrown upon the reasons which actuated certain United States Senators in voting against the nomination of Judge Parker for the Supreme Court, as set forth in an article in last Sunday's New York World. According to the requirements laid down in this article, an acceptable candidate for the Supreme Court must be a man who places the importance of human rights before property rights. He must also be entirely free of religious or local prejudices, whether the latter be based on race or class consciousness. He must also have the courage to stand by his convictions, when once he acknowledges them. It was in this last particular that Judge Parker showed himself conspicuously deficient. The Senators whose opinions were given as the basis for the article included the two Democrats from New York State, one from Maryland, a Republican from North Dakota and a Democrat from Arkansas. Senator Copeland was outspoken in the opinion, that a candidate for Supreme Court judge "must be free from religious, national and racial prejudice, ready to give consideration" to the problems of city and country alike." Senator Tydings of Maryland was equally emphatic in saying "The proper candidate for the Supreme Court must first of all be a man without racial, class, nationalistic, religious or local prejudices. The Supreme Court justice sits upon the final tribunal where the Catholic, the Jew, the white, the red and the black man, the Englishman, the German, the Italian and the Russian must come for justice." Senator Wagner of New York, whose opinion on the race issue was given in his speech in the Senate, insisted that the affirmative attributes necessary to a favorable vote should include "that indefinable quality known as statecraft." In addition the candidate should not be selected until unless he has demonstrated that he regards "the law as an instrument of progress and not as an apology for stagnation." Senator Caraway of Arkansas even took the position that the candidate "should realize that while it is necessary to guard vested interests that these interests are not superior to the rights of human beings." But then a Senator from Arkansas might be doubtful as to whether Negroes should be classed as human beings. Senator Nye of North Dakota, in judging the fitness of a candidate, declared that he would "consider the influence that previous associations would exert upon his discernment of the increasing menace of centralized wealth and power and whether he accepts these amalgamations as the results of economic development or of political favor." It will be seen that the two New Yorkers and the Maryland Democrat were specific in their contention that a Supreme Court judge should be without prejudice of race or color. This is in refreshing contrast to the attitude taken by the New York Herald Tribune, a high priest of Republicanism, which sought to belittle Senator Wagner's speech, by saying that "senators switched to and fro because of a casual pro-Negro remark by a Senator from New York," and declared that "rarely has the Senate exhibited more nakedly the petitness and cheapness of a large part of its mentality." It admitted that the qualifications of Judge Parker for the office deserved thorough scrutiny, but it sought to discredit those Senators who made that scrutiny and based their votes upon it. Neither Republican leadership in the Senate nor in the White House showed up well in the Parker episode, while the comment of the leading Republican newspaper was unworthy of its antecedents. TRIBUTE TO RACE PRESS. hat was a happy thought which to a testimonial given by a num- er public spirited citizens to the and publishers of the Negro ers published in this city. The tal took the storm of a represent- ing of professional and bus That was a happy thought which gave rise to a testimonial given by a number of our public spirited citizens to the editors and publishers of the Negro newspapers published in this city. The testimonial took the form of a representative gathering of professional and business men, which constituted a cross section of the beat elements of Harlem. Around a festive board they voiced their appreciation of the service rendered by the race press as a news gathering medium, a source of authoritative opinion and an unfinching champion of all causes involving the civic and human rights of the race. As a rule, our newspapers are the recipients of so much criticism and censure, that a tribute to its usefulness constitutes a grateful departure. A retrospective glance over the troublous career of Negro journalism in a great city like New York, during the past half century, may not be out of place in connection with this tribute to its present status. A little more than fifty years ago the Progressive American was the sole newspaper devoted to the publication of racial news and opinion. For twenty years or more it was edited by Col. John J. Freeman, the derivation of whose military title remains unknown, but who wrote vigorous editorials and gave a column or so, to local and personal items. The remainder of the four-page journal was filled by what was known in those days as "patent back" or "boiler plate," being general news and special articles furnished in stereotyped plates by a news syndicate. The distribution of this weekly messenger was carried out by an untiring and faithful news agent named George Washington, and the paper would be found tucked under the subscriber's door some bright morning, the agent only being seen every four or five weeks when he appeared to collect. The distribution system after dark was as mysterious as that of the Belgian sheet printed during the World War; and put in the hands of readers despite all efforts of the German invaders to suppress it. The publication of the Progressive American ended with the retirement of its editor to a farm in the country, the dream perhaps of many other editors. Antedating the Progressive American by nearly half a century was the pioneer sheet of Negro journalism in New York, Freedom's Journal, published by Cornish and Russworm, in 1827; over a century ago. Its editor, John B. Russworm was a graduate of Bowdoun College. This was followed by the Colored American, the Weekly Advocate, and other journals which had a more or less brief career. Among the men who edited and published these early exponents of the Negro press were Philip A. Bell, Dr. James McCune Smith, the Rev. Charles B. Ray and others. The chief purpose of the Negro papers of those days was to furnish propaganda against the institution of chattel slavery and to bring about the full rights of citizenship for the free people of the race. In between the time of the Progressive American and the present day, New York has had a variety of journalistic enterprises promoted and run by members of the race. Perhaps the most notable in form and literary contents, was Rumor, published in the early seventies by George Parker and Co. Its staff of writers comprised a group of brilliant young men with bohemian tastes and tendencies who would now be classed as types of Greenwich villagers. Rumor was printed in what would be known as tabloid shape, with a full page portrait wood engraving of some notable individual of the race on the first page. It continued publication until the funds of its public-spirited founder were exhausted, being followed by The New York Globe, The Freeman and The Age. Other weeklies published during this period were the Literary Enterprise, with J. A. Arneaux as editor; the West Indian Abroad, which owed its inception to Bishop W. B. Derrick; the New York Chronicle, published by Charles W. Anderson and John E. Bruce; the Suffragist, an early exponent of Democratic doctrine with John W. A. Shaw as editor, and many others now dead and forgotten. Compared to the journals of the present day these early efforts were perhaps crude and amateurish, but many of them were well written and furnished a needed outlet for the expression of racial aspirations, and the attempt to cultivate favorable public sentiment in that direction. The part played by the Negro press in the upward and onward march of the race in this city deserves the recognition given by the citizens of Harlem. PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM. The recent election of George J. Ryan as President of the Board of Education is an assurance that the present broad and liberal policy that characterizes the conduct of New York's public schools will be continued. The Board consists of seven members appointed by the Mayor for terms of seven years. Two of the members must be residents of Manhattan, two of Brooklyn and one from each of the other boroughs. There is no salary attached to the position, although the board possesses wide powers in the expenditure of funds for school purposes and the appointment and dismissal of teachers. Previous to the reduction of the membership of the board to seven and the restriction as to residence, there was an effort made to secure racial representation among its membership. This was met by the appointment of Dr. E. P. Roberts as a member of the larger board and he served acceptably for several years. In the days before Brooklyn became a part of Greater New York and had its separate school board, both Republican and Democratic Mayors appointed a member of the race to this body. The first of these to occupy a seat was Dr. Philip A. White, who served during the early eighties. He was followed by T. McCants Stewart and Samuel R. Scottron. In addition to the Board of Education, the jurisdiction of which covers the whole city, there are local school boards consisting of five members appointed by each Borough President. These local boards have the immediate oversight of the schools in their districts and exercise a limited supervision over local school matter. In several of these local boards there are racial representatives, who have an opportunity to get an idea of what is needed to improve educational matters. The chief executive officer of the whole system is the Superintendent of Schools, who has a seat in the Board, but no vote. That is the post now so ably filled by Dr. William J. O'Shea. Another happening of importance in the school system was the reelection of Miss Anna E. Lawson, principal of Public School No. 119, as a teacher member of the Retirement Board, by an overwhelming majority of the teachers' votes cast. This is a deserved tribute to Miss Lawson's work as a member of this board, which plays so important a part in the latter part of career of each teacher. It was the part of wisdom for the teachers to keep Miss Lawson as one of their representatives. The opposition to her return, while falling short of votes, was denounced by some of those interested as resorting to unfair tactics in the course of the campaign, which seems to prove that sharp political tricks are not unknown to the instructors of youth. Nevertheless, the schools appear to be in a healthy condition, owing to the broad and progressive policies initiated and continued 1, the higher authorities. NEW YORK REAL ESTATE. The inherent value and progressive growth of land in New York City has become a proverb, since the early traders acquired the island of Manhattan from the Indians for a sum so small as to seem incredible, when contrasted with the quotations by the square or running foot at the present time. But when the Indians sold their fields and forests there were no skyscrapers dreamt of, much less elevated roads and subways. So it must be remembered the buildings and means of transportation have gone to build up and increase land values on the island of Manhattan, where space is limited and population is pressing inward and outward. The recent-election of John E. Nail of the real estate firm of Nail and Parker as a member of the Real Estate Board of New York, is significant of the part that the race is playing and is destined to play in the handling of New York real estate. Trained in the school of the late Philip A. Payton, Mr. Nail has been engaged in the real estate business for about twenty-two years. He has helped largely in developing and handling of Harlem property and acquired a fund of knowledge and experience in this line that brought him in contact with some of the largest real estate owners and operators in this city. His election to active Class A membership in the Real Estate Board is a signal recognition of his advancement as a real estate specialist. As we have pointed out, the rise and fall of real estate values is determined by various factors, including the movement of population and trade, the provision of means of transportation and other elements of city growth. The ability to foresee and figure out the course that these movements will take is what makes the successful investor or speculator in real estate values. In addition to this, if one is the owner of property, he should know something about the details of management and the regulation of overhead ex- penesis. All this knowledge goes to form the equipment of the well-equipped real estate man, in addition to other technical requirements that experience alone can give. It is The Chicago Defender celebrated its twenty-fifth anniversary by issuing a mammoth edition of several sections, in which its trials and triumphs were duly recited. In a recapitulation of his work by Robert S. Abbott, as editor, owner, and founder, occurred the following passage: In the nineteenth year of the Defender's existence the life of the institution was purged to test. It was a question worth asking or not it would be the attacks from within and without. I discovered that a vicious conspiracy existed fostered by the people whom I had considered my most intimate friends who had conspired not only to destroy the Defender as an institution but also to bring about my death. This was to me a severe shock. When this was brought to my attention there was no one to whom I could go, and conspired to destroy me. I could conspire these dastardly attempts to destroy my life, and feel that I had their confidence and sympathy. It had developed that some prominent physicians had been secured who were to [end] their aid, in this sinister conspiracy to have me declared incompetent to run my own business and put in an institution for the insane. In connection therewith several lawyers had been engaged for the purpose of legalizing the actions of these conspirators in their effort to destroy both me and the Defender. This movement was so well organized that people within my employ were giving out secret information concerning my affairs to aid and abet in my destruction. Needless to say, the lonely but undaunted editor prevailed over his enemies and put their machinations to naught. Using the aid of statistics concerning the city's expenditures, the Omaha Guide made a strong plea for racial representation in the municipal service. It said: We have in our city employment, some 4,600 people who receive a pay check of $8,043,12 annually. Out of this number there are only fifty-three of our citizens on the pay-roll. We should have 287 of our citizens on the pay-roll. We pay directly or indirectly 115 of our citizens. We are entitled to 1-15 of these taxes that are expended for employment, which will amount to $599,660 annually. In other words, you as tax payers, pay into the pockets of other groups, $33,305 every month of your life. Why? Because you, as citizens, are not entitled to benefits that belongs to you. It is yours and you should have it. It Why not put your candidates and your leaders on record? Mr. Working Man and Mrs. Working Women you who toil daily to educate your children, should give this matter your earnest consideration; look data square; the fact that your leaders to the front in this matter. Do not stand for any side-tepping. Any business man, professional man, minister of the gospel or business firm, who is making his living off of you and refuses to front for you in your demand for what right belongs to you, be dealt with in a timely and accordingly. Below we are giving an itemized statement of your city departments, including the School Board, for which you pay your taxes to defray the expenses of operation. According to this statistically minded Omaha editor, the only city departments in which the race has its full quota of employees, are those of accounts and streets. The School Board disburses, $375,000 a month among 2,500 employees, none of whom is colored. The Guide demands a quota of 147. Urging the propriety of the appointment of "A Negro on School Board," the Chicago Sunday Bee advanced the following argument: At present there are three vacancies on the Chicago School Board. One vacancy has extended for a year and the term of two trustees expired last week. The republican voting percentage of Negroes that are delivered to the Thompson administration and the percentage of Negro teachers are admitted with the public school system of Chicago, entitles the Negro citizens to representation on the School Board. The republican wheel-horses of the Thompson factions, including Congressman Oscar DePriest, Civil Service Commissioner Carey, our aldermen, and State Senator Roberts and our state representatives, now have the opportunity to represent the colored citizens of Chicago whether or not their influence with the administration is sufficiently strong to land a Negro on the School Board. In selecting a candidate for any of the vacancies, due consideration must be given to his stand on the historic relations of Great Britain and the United States, and he must be prepared to "Keep King George out of Chicago," according to Mayer Thompson's edict. Citing the decision of the North Carolina Supreme Court, that has lines ingested in that State must provide accommodations for Negro passengers, as a striking illustration well that we should have a representative so well equipped in these particulars as the newly elected member of the Real Estate Board of New York. of the benefits that may be derived from racial cooperation, the African-American Presbyterian of Charlotte said: Through the persistent efforts of the North Carolina Interracial Commission, composed of representative white and colored men and women, the question of making provision for the needs of the disabled, high court, where a favorable decision was given. In this instance the Negroes are the direct beneficiaries. It hardly needs to be said, however, that the better class of Negroes all over the South stand ready to cooperate not only where their particular interests are involved, but in any movement which was for its purpose the upbuilding of the community or State in which they reside. In this connection we are pleased to note an incident which took place in Wadesboro some days ago, to which the Charlotte Observer makes editorial reference. A group of Negro singers, gathered from different parts of Anson County, responded to the request of the white people of Wadesboro to assist in an effort to raise awareness to assist in memorial to white and Negro soldiers who participated in the World War. Taking for granted that both races are in the South to stay, the religious editor pertinently asked: "Why not unite and work for the welfare and happiness of all?" Why not? Referring to the suggestion, of one of the City Commissioners, that colored tubercular sufferers should be given carved back South, the Newark Herald said: Mr. Murray must understand that the Negro did not come North of his free will and accord, without being enticed by the Northern whites when labor was scarce, which caused thousands of colored people to sell all they possessed and come North to a land that flowed with milk and honour, and which offered the greater opportunity in life. And to even think of sending sick Negroes back to the Southland, where they have no homes, no friends nor money, is ridiculous. Newark wanted the colored people, Newark invited them here. They came, and since being here they have made their bit of contribution to Newark, and now let Newark take care of them. Mr. Murray was convinced when he failed to include sending back the sick foreigners across the pond. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. And since the housing condition comes under Mr. Murray's department, and since the colored people are the poorest housed in the city, let Mr. Murray go into the colored sections and condemn some of the old dilapidated shacks that colorful people are building high rent to white landlords for so-called houses that are not fit to be called first-class stables for horses. When Mr. Murray makes up his mind to begin such a campaign, he will be doing the very thing he should do to prevent the spread of contagious diseases among colored people of his great city. The suggestion of the Herold is much more humane and feasible than that of the Commissioner and should be pressed before the local authorities. Discussing the employment problem, as it relates to Negroes, the Norfolk Journal' and Guide quoted the Virginian Pilot as to the invasion by white workers of employers formerly monopolized by Negroes and racial resistance in fields monopolized by whites. It continued In plain words the Negro worker is being forced out of the common, unskilled tasks, formerly regarded as "Negro jobs," and is being prevented from taking or performing jobs—skilled and unskilled, common and ordinary—in which both races formerly, engaged. The situation is more serious in Virginia than it is in New York. Ohio Pennsylvania is in New York. In Pennsylvania, for instance Negroes are being placed on milk wagons. In Virginia they are being taken off of milk wagons. In New York Negroes dind employment in the building trades, in Virginia they are prevented from working in the building trades. In Chicago seven hundred waiters and four hundred maids were retained in their jobs in one of the city's largest hotels in the face of pressure to displace them; in Norfolk recently Negro elevator boys were discharged in one of the leading hotels and their jobs given to white boys. There were Negroes in Virginia and in other parts of the South dislocate the Negro worker, as against a decided tendency in the North and West to give him a bigger chance. The Journal and Guide does not mean to convey the impression that there is not an employment problem outside of the South. There is, but there is a growing public sentiment that the South which is taking cognizance of the agro's struggle for economic position, there is no corresponding public sentiment in the South. There is, on the other hand, a growing public sentiment in the South, punitive in nature, which operates to accelerate the displacement of the Negro worker. Only remedy seen for this condition is the re-awakening of the co- The Week of May 24 Astrologically Considered BY "THEARCHER" Jupiter has a very strong position in the charts of all those who have birthdates in this week, and will bring more or less happiness to nearly everyone at some time in the coming birthyear.

Searching for a Supreme Court Justice who would be respectable Republican and Southern, the President uncovered Judge Parker and exposed him as objectionable to organized labor and to vocal Northern Negroes. Eminently responsible Judge Parker was not otherwise appointed by Senatorial politicians to take a shot so they downed him. Though the affair is to be regretted, it will hardly be looked upon as tragic. A Republican President seeking to conciliate the South is likely to fail as he restricts himself to Republican making appointments. The clumsy is unworthy to the development of Republican of the first magnitude. The Negro As Actor - (From the Herald Tribune) Charles Gilpin one of America's great actors, is dead, and he will be remembered for a single role. Those who saw him play the part in "The Emperor Jones" will never forget him, and his magnificent interpretation of that part had much to do with the sudden rise to world fame of Eugene O'Xon-1. The serious Negro actor faces heart-breaking disgusts. Gilpin was on the stage, off and on from the time he was fifteen until he was fifty, but he found it more probable to be a Pullman porter, a barber on Broadway and a farmer. He appeared on Broadway in Curtis, in drinkwaters "Abraham Lincoln." It was not a Broadway producer who called a stage "Emperor Jones," which must have seemed to the Broadway mind a formidless fragment. It was, the old Preamstown players who gave Gilpin his chance in the shabby barn in McBougain street that was the scene of the checkerboard of many good plays in those days for the customary two weeks run, including several of O'Neill's earlier sea pieces. But Gilpin's playing of the part of the porter turned emperor, stumbling through the tropical forest, made McDougal street for a moment the theatrical mecca of New York, finally the play had to be broadcast to Broadway and dare improve, succeeded on the larger upstown stage as well as in Greenwich Village. And in 1921 it was insultable that the Drama League should count Gilpin as among the ten persons who had contributed most to drama art during the year. Dramatic talent seems to be instinctive in the Negro. The almost incredible perfection with which he portrayed his role of master and God in the "Green Painture" is the most recent example. But in serious drama the Negro almost has an opportunity. Even Ira Aldridge, the greatest of Negro actors, who placed Othello to Edmund Keane's lage and was decorated in his day by the kings and emperors of Prussia, Austria and Germany, in a memorial inn and a museum land. There is a memorial window to him in the Shakespeare Theatre at Stratford-on-Avon, but his name is almost unknown in America. Perhaps the happiest occasion that call Gilpin for the Emperor Jones and his subsequent success that part, both North and South, have broken the he, at last and made the way easier for his success.

Hits a "Five-Bagger" Harry Hardner hit a home run Monday, and by dint of speedy running stretched it into a single. Hardner, Negro pitcher for the Walnut Street Cartage team of Milwaukee, amateur, slammed the ball to the edge of the playing field and ran like sixty. He circled the bases and came in standing up, beaming all over. In the meantime the outfielder, Bob Simmons—a brother of the well known Al—was fielding the ball. Hardner's teammates began gesticulating loudly. Hardner, appeared, had neglected to touch the ball. So Hardner started all over again, sprinting like mad down the first base line. He got there in time, and the score book gives him a single, says the Associated Press. OMS PITCHES CUBANS TO WIN OVER LINCOLNS Giants Gets First Defeat of Season at Home In 11-Inning Game The Lincoln Giants were beaten the first time this season on their home grounds in a 11-inning contest with the Stars of Cuba at Protector Oval Sunday, May 18. Oms star centerfielder, turned pitcher, and stopped the heavy-hitting of the local team He allowed only 8 scattered hits. The final score was 11- it was the second game of a double header. When the Giants won the first game by the one-sided score of 14-2 it made 13 straight victories on their home grounds but it seems that this number 13 proved a pixx, as the Cubans came back and played ball like a different team. They out-played the local team in every department of the game. In the ninth naming singles by Oms and Solis scored two runs and tied the game at 6-0. And in the eleventh Oms, Solis and Dhigo made hits, which with an error by Yancey, gave them 5 more runs. The Lincolncs were unable to solve Oms' peculiar delivery of a side-arm ball. Manager Lloyd, Bill Yancey and Johnne Beckwith hit home runs in the first game. During the past week, the Lincoln Giants won tour games in Philadelphia. They defeated Hilddale on Monday—8-6, on Friday they beat the Baltimore Black Sox, 11-4; and on Saturday, Hilddale was beaten again—4-3, and the Stars of Cuba were also beaten, 11-8.

IN NURSING A BONING ALLEY! At The Lafayette Theatre Another surprisingly delightful stage and screen show is playing to capacity audiences at the Lafayette Theatre this week. This time, beautiful sweet-voced Adelaide Hall is the star of the stage production. The big talking picture program includes "Burning Up" with Richard Arlen; "The Joy Boat" with Herman Timberg and "Vanity", a fascinating miniature Vitaphone drama. Splendid as she was in Lew Leslie's "Blackbirds," Adelaide Hall never appeared to better advantage than she does at the Lafayette Theatre this week. As a singer and a dancer, she is unsurpassed. If only she could develop a touch of Ethel Waters' honor, she would stand head and shoulders above every colored artist on the stage today. As it is, the management reports that the reception accorded her at the Saturday matinee exceeded any reception ever given to any star in Harlem, and that she was kept on the stage for thirty-five minutes responding to encores! The revue, in which Miss Hall enacts the leading role is entitled "1930 Edition of Lucky Samba." It was staged by Hurtig and Seamon, who have to their credit a long list of colored musical comedy successes. There is a cast of some thirty five well known comedians, dancers and dramatic artists, who present this splendid little revue. "Burning Up" the talking feature is a melodrama of the race track. It is packed with thrills and laughter. The audience at Monday's matinee fairly rose in their chairs and cheered at the finish of the most thrilling ot automobile races which has ever been screened. Lovers of drama, of comedy, of beauty, of sweet songs and peppy dances will find great enjoyment at the La avette this week. It is seldom that a theatre offers a cast of celebrities such as will be seen at the Larayette Theatre next week. At that time, Clarence Robinson will present his latest revue sensation and judged by the cast and all the advance notices, it is certain to be greater even than his "Club Plantation Revue and Duke Ellington's 'Pepper Pot', which Robinson recently presented at the popular Seventh Avenue Playhouse. This new revue is entitled "A Japanese Fantasy". The cast will include the famous Berry Brothers, Wilton Crawley, Shutton Brooks and Cah Callaway and His Missourians, Johnny, Argal, Eddie Green, Ted Blackman, and the Famous Club Plantation Beauty Chorus. The photoplay program will also be of unusual interest. The feature will be "Behind the Makeup", an enchanting romance of back-stage life Hat Kelly, William Powell and Pay Wray are the stars. Hat Kelly will be remembered as the star of the Broadway stage success "Burlesque". In the smart, sensational, spectacular, "In Love Parade" which will be presented at the New Douglas Theatre for a six day run beginning Saturday May 24, the handsome Maurice songs, "Dream Lover", "My Love Parade", "Anything to Please the Queen", "Let's Be Common", "Nobody's Using it Now" and several other song hits that you'll never stop whistling. See him make love to the gorgeous beaunette MacDonald. Nothing like it has ever been seen on the screen. The regal love affair of this beautiful queen and this dashing army officer is a delight to the eye and the ear. AT LAFAYETTE THEATRE NEXT-WEEK At The New Douglass Maurice Chevalier, idol of Paris and a sensation in America since his last picture "Jimcoe" in Paris", has captured the world with his charming personality, his glorious voice his happy fun and that certain "something" which makes him loved by woman and admired by men. The immutable Lurino Lane plays the valet and the "hott" little stage star Lallian Roth plays maid. And what a team they are. Their funny antics and clever singing will positively fascinate. receded by Dorothy Peterson At the present time, the theatre movement is under the direction of Miss Helen Brooks, teacher of English at Hunter College. Other of officers of the group are Benjamin Loke, business manager, and Robert Elzy, treasurer.

By GENE BYRNES At The Rousevelt Janet Gaynor and Charles Farrell, the idols of millions of movie fans everywhere, recently were acclaimed winners of a popularity contest conducted by one of New York's largest newspapers. The contest, in itself, meant very little except to give movie goers another opportunity to name their favorites. However, when "Sunnyside Up" was shown in Harlem, observers did not need a newspaper contest to tell them that Gaynor and Farrell were the popular favorites in Harlem. Folks just blocked to the theatre that showed the picture. And now, we have the new picture which is titled "High Society Blues" and which critics have praised even more than "Sunnyside Up". "High Society Blues" is the finest musical romance that the talking screen has given us. It tells a charming story of tender romance-romance as only Charlie Farrrell and Janet Gaynor can give us. The supporting cast is excellent, it includes William Collier Sr, Hedda Hopier, Lucien Littlefield, Louse Fazenda and Joyce Compton. And the musical numbers! Everyone is whistling "I'm in the Market for You," "Elleanor," "High Society Blues" and "Just Like a Story Book"—four of the song hits. "High Society Blues" will be shown at the Roosevelt for five days only starting Saturday, May 24th At The Odeon Theatre Fred Kohler, rum-king, in control of the town of Mormon, bumps off a newspaper reporter who was sent down by the Chicago papers to uncover a story! This is but one of the thrilling situations in the Roadhouse Nights, which will be presented at the Odeon Theatre Saturday, Sunday and Monday, May 24th, 25th and 20th. "Roadhouse Nights" is surely one of the best stories of its kind since "Underworld." It is a tale of Chicago racketeering, rum—running and a romance between a drunken reporter and a cabaret singer. The manner in which it is told will keep you grupping the arms of your seat from sheer excitement and fascination. Ben Hecht, the author, who also wrote the stage success "Front Page" and "Underworld", knows his subject perfectly. As a veteran newspaper man who covered underworld attires for years, he is thoroughly familiar with the criminal world. Helen Morgan, famous "belle or the blues" and star of Ziegfield's "Showboat" is the cubaret singer. Fred Kohler, the villain of many crook drapas, is the bootleg-king. The well known trio of Clayton Jackson and Durante do the clowning in a manner which will bring many a laugh to the most thrilling or melodramas. At The Alhambra Theatre Bessie Smith, unquestionably one of the world's greatest entertainers, whose phonograph records and talking pictures are known in every country, is at the Alhambra Theatre this week, greeted by enthusiastic crowds. Besides Bessie the Great, there's an overflowing quantity as well as quality of talent. Bootsy Swan and Johnny Lee, the comedy team from Connec's Inn, delight with their own original line of fun. Miller and Bryant, Baby De Leon and Maude Woodson all score success, judging from the encores demanded. "The Gimme Girls" is a drama of gold-digging chorus girls; full of laughs and with just a few heart-throbs. Arte Cain, Josephine Campbell and Thomas Moseley are the outstanding characters. The popular young Broadway leading man, William Collier pr. with Alice Day and John St Polis offer splendid acting in the brilliant talking picture "The Melody Man." It has been called by a prominent critic "the divine talk-and-music drama of the year." Next Week "Happy Feet" will be a novelty starting Monday at the Alhambra. It will be a rescue abounding in all kinds of dancing, with, of course lots of singing and plenty of fun. The drama will be "Tight Like Titat," dealing with a young man MANSFIELD THEATRE - Evs. 8:30 MATINEES WEST 47th STREET Wed.

The plan works too well as the fellow becomes unheliessy tight, with comical results. "Half Marriage," the talkie of modern young lovers who defy destiny will be the sensation of the program.

It was the first time the abbey had ever surrendered to the enchantment of this music, and it durrender Great crowds of Londoners, we read, waited for an hour outside its doors for a chance to hear the singing, while within the hush that greeted the rich chorus was tat of the spell which all genuine art casts upon the senses. One hesitates to assess the significance of the incident for fear of failing to do it justice. Westminster Abbey is the Valhalla of a race which enslaved the ancestors of these boys and girls so reverently listened to. In capturing it, as they did, they were in a sense paving off an old and bloody score, but in a coin such as revenge rarely employs. Compare the quality of these Negro spirituals with that of the hymns current in the Anglo-Saxon world on either side of the Atlantic. Is a comparison possible? Then consider their source in the sufferings and humiliations of a slave existence. What these colored choristers were offering before the altar of the white master, in his sanctuary of sanctuaries, were flowers plucked from the Getthisme he imposed, flowers so exquisite that he must bow his head in their presence and acknowledge his inability to gather their equal. Vengeance is mine, said the Lord" Well, here it was in its divine form. NOTICE! Please have your news items in by Monday morning of each week.

Or to put it more moderately, blessed is he who gives until the giving-hurts. in the place, there are three sisters, but William's armor is to attract, unleash it. he his ebony-hued skirt. That is as selfless negroid as an African chiefs. You might, if you saw him several times, take note of the manner in which he keeps his shoes, which allow him to walk with his customer to the bootcook. But other than those two things, to the casual observer, William will pass unnoticed in any crowd. This Pullman porter, however, possesses some characteristics that are not presented to the eyes. Of these, it is necessary to give a few facts in connection with William's history. He is from the college town of Salisbury, North Carolina, and is one of the family of several sisters and brothers. One of these sisters is also aigo, and she left four young children, two boys and two girls. As with most Southern families, the brothers and sisters lived in different parts of the State; furthermore, each of these had large families of his and her own. One size matters, the two youngest of the children, but the other two had to go to an orphan home at Oxford, North Carolina. Since the death of his sister, William, who is an extra porter in the New York district, has been caring for the children, the keep of these children. Six months ago he was informed by the superintendent of the Oxford Home that other arrangements would have to be made for the two wards, as they were at the age for dismissal from the institution. So he could you, reader, do if there were suddenly dumped on your hands an eighteen year old nephew and a sixteen year old niece, and you a young man yourself, with neither a wife nor a home of your own? Well, our friend, decided at, once what he would do. He notified the Oxford and the boy and girl to New York. He was at the railroad station to meet them when they arrived. But, imagine his surprise, and disconcertedness, to behold four children outside of twel. The two oldest children had brought, the two youngest with them. Four to look after! Fortunately for the uncle, the family with whom he lives, the berton, N. C., were pleasant visitors at the home of Mr. and Mrs. B. J. James of Laurinburg last Friday.

The yard forces at Mott Haven are expected to be present in full numbers. William "Kid" Lewis is out and looking quite well again, after dangerous case of pneumonia with which he was stricken several months ago, while enroute to the Pacific Coast. Penn Terminal Notes By J. T. REID Our safety meeting was well attended Friday, May 16. We have heard a great deal about the bearing of supervision upon accident prevention. The majority of industrial accidents are due to lack of supervision. The record of more than one accident occurred to men engaged in common labor. This proves that better supervision is required, not only for accident prevention but for economy of operation. On an extensive construction' job, two separate labor gangs were employed under two different foremen. One, a middle-aged man, supervised the new workers, the green help; while the experienced men were givemen the green help, the former watched each like an auditor watching ticket accounts. For instance, the moment one of his men started to do anything the wrong way, he would step up and show him the right and the safe way. The other foreman relied entirely upon the capability of the men assigned him and took it for granted that they would be in the right place. He spent a good his time planning and inspecting quality and quantity of work. While there was not much difference between the labor of the two gangs, which do you think had the best accident records, the green gang or the experienced one? The difference between the good showing of the unskilled men and the poor showing of the experienced men is so marked that it proves conclusively that proper supervision will eliminate accidents. It also indicates that insufficient supervision is given common labor. Abraham Lincoln once said, "It is the duty of every man to protect himself and those associated with him from accidents which may result in injury or death." Now we hope our porters, when they see their work, do nothing wrong, will step up and gently tap him on the back and remind him of the accident that will happen of he don't get on the job and act safely. Penn Terminal's baseball team defeated the strong Steinway A. C, by the score of 8 to 6. Manager Reid forward, for a good team this year.

Through the same family's efforts the children have found a permanent home with a childless couple who live in a rural community not far from New York City. Even before they left the South, Burton, as an extra porter, had to deny himself the pleasures of a young man that he might provide for the children. In New York City, where it requires more or less going for the past several months, "It has been a case of giving until it has hurt," says William, "But I felt it my duty to be father as well as uncle to the children." A Pullman veteran once said that the Pullman service could be likened to a human grab bag: "I could put it in the bag and draw out any type of character or any sort of man you wanted." "Uncle" William is a good illustration of that statement. Mott Haven Yard News A visit by Assistant Manager P. T. Ryan, the new boss of the Northeastern "Pullman" zone, to Mott Haven Yards last week, furnished the principal topic for discussion among the porters of this district. During his visit, which was on Tuesday, Manager Ryan the morning and one in the afternoon to the largest gatherings of porters that have ever assembled at any of these lecture meetings. His subject at both assemblies was "Safety First" and "Service." The boys were particularly impressed with his remarks on the question of service. Much of this impression was due to the fact that this official emphasized some of the commendable things that porters had done in helping to maintain the reputation of the service. "Formerly the derelictions of the porters have all been stressed at these meetings, but commendations have been practically ignored. Manager Ryan's method had a salutary effect upon the boys who heard him, and will be an encouragement to us," said one Rev. and Mrs. Brower and children spent a few days in Asheboro last week.

Just a few weeks ago the New York Diocesan Convention, in session in the Synod House of the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, by signaled him by John giving him a rising vote of approval for the splendid service rendered the entire community through the development of St. Cyprian's. And another distinguished honor which would have been his within a short while would have been the upstairs room of the degree of doctor of divinity by the Theological Seminary of Virginia, located at Alexandria, a white institution, from which he had received an invitation to be present in June and receive the honor. Born in 1866, young Johnson re- Thousands View Body received his, theological training at Payne's Theological Seminary in Petersburg, Va., and later served as a member of the faculty. He was a member of the faculty for eight years, twenty-five of which were spent in New York City at St. Cyprin's. The body was borne into the chapel of the church On Sunday, May 18, at 1 p. m., and from that time until Monday at noon it is estimated that fully 25,000 people of the community attended reverently by the bier as a tribute of respect and honor to the man who had done so much for the entire community. Men, women and children, Protestants, Catholics and Hebrews, of all races, were in the mourning throng. Long before time for the funeral services at 2 p. m., it was impossible to even get to the church, and police reserves had to be called out to handle the hundreds who had secured places in the house who had secured places in the church auditorium for the funeral. The Rt. Rev. W. T.

John Howard Johnson, vicar of St. Martin's P. E. Chapel, 122nd street and Lenox house, a daughter, Mrs. Carlton Boxill, a Carl and John Boxill, and a sister, Belle Jenkins of Asbury Park. A. SLUGGISH I HAVE taken Black Draught for a long time, and it has helped me wonderfully," writes Miss Trouse E. Whiffalf, of 1450 Center St, Birmingham, whose picture appears above. "I would have the sluggish, tired feeling, and not feel equal to my work. I would have a bad taste in my mouth. "Some one told me to try Black Draught, which I did. I found it helped me, so when I feel bad and sluggish I take Black Draught." Theford's Black Draught is easy to take. No disagreeable after-effects. Get a package, today. Sold everywhere.
