Koch, Oldest Department Store In Harlem, Is Selling Out After seventy-years in business, the H. C. F. Koch & Company, Harlem's oldest department store, has passed from the control of the Koch family and the entire stock is being sold out by the new owners, A. Schaap and Sons. Many bargains in clothing, furniture, household goods and even meats and groceries, are now being offered to the public. The business was founded in 1840 by H. C. F. Koch, father of William T. Koch, until recently president of the firm. The business prospered under the elder Koch, and in 1875 moved to Sixth avenue and 20th street. A second move was in 1900 to the present site on 12th street. In 1894 two stores were added, and the entire structure remodeled into a modern fire-proof six-story structure. In the rear of the store, on 12th street, the firm has a large warehouse. The Koch family, paid scant attention to colored prospective customers, with the change of the neighborhood, and as a result, rival stores on 125th street gained most of the colored trade. With the death of Edwin von der Horst Koch, who ran the business from the death of the founder in 1900 to 1928, the owners decided to retire from the merchandising field, and devote all their time to the large really holdings in this section. The new owners, who have had wide experience as clothing, jobbers and merchants, have adopted a different attitude towards the colored trade and invite an inspection of the store by readers of this paper. "Bargains now being offered by this store cannot be duplicated down town," says the new owners.

Attempt at Suicide In 1919 Causes Smith To Face 20-Year Sentence "Attempted suicide has not been a crime of any sort since 1919, but because the law compels me to do so, I file this information," said District Attorney Brower on Wednesday, September 24, when he was presenting the case of William E. Smith, 42, who said that he lived at 435 Prince street before County Judge Conway. Smith had been convicted of third degree burglary before the judge and a jury, and is in Raymond street jail awaiting sentence. The District Attorney also stated that he was satisfied that the second offender was no longer to apply to the one who attempted suicide. The court agreed, but pointed out that the jury would have to decide the matter. Smith was only 24 years old when he attempted to take his life, but faces the possibility of an extra ten years in jail, for this. In his information that was filed, the District Attorney stated that Smith pleaded guilty to this charge, and that at that time it was a felony. Smith served a term in the penitentiary. Under the Baumes law, Smith, as a first offender, can be given a sentence of ten years, and as a second offender he can be given the maximum sentence of twenty years.

KIMBOUGH Brooklynite Was Elevated to High Office Despite Local Enemy DAUGHTER ELKS PAY TRIBUTE TO DT. KIMBOUGH Brooklynite Was Elevated to High Office Despite Local Enemy The Daughter Elks of Excelsior Temple, No. 35, of the L. R. P. O. of Elks of the World, have a movement on foot to celebrate the election of their fellow-member, Daughter Elizabeth Kimbough, to the position of vice grand daughter ruler. This is the next highest honor that can be given a Daughter Elk Up to this writing the Daughters have not decided what form the celebration shall take. Mrs Kimbough in point of service, is one of the oldest Daughter Elks in Brooklyn, and is also one of the oldest members of the Grand Temple, though yet a young woman She is a woman of great organizing ability, and has a great personality. She rose from the ranks as a Daughter Elk to her present station in the Grand Temple Prior to her elevation she held the position of assistant Vice grand daughter ruler. For years Mrs. Kimbough was secretary of Excelsior Temple, and is called the 'Mother' of Progressive Temple, No. 79, which she organized. She resides at 18 St. Felix street with her husband Past District Deputy Grand Exalted Ruler. He DAUGHTER ELK HONORED PETER B. Mrs. ELIZ. KIMBOUGH ry Kimbough Mrs. Kimbough is a member of several other fraternities and organizations. Among them are the Eastern Star, Court of Calanthe, Household of Ruth and the Teens. She is an active Republican, and is a member of two organizations and Concord Baptist Church. She has lived in Brooklyn for many years and is regarded as one of its outstanding women. Attacked in Convention According to reports, Daughter Anchina Blocker of Manhattan Temple is alleged to have made a statement in the recent Grand Temple session in Detroit, claiming that grandee-daughter ruler, while in the home of Mrs Blocker in New York, had used 'apprehensive terms in records to a Daugh- ter Elk. According to reports, this was done just before the election of Mrs. Kimbough to her present position, but did not have any effect on her election. The alleged remarks were of such a nature that it is said that the Grand Temple was very much upset for a few moments. Mrs. Kimbough gained the floor and vigorously denied the statement. She was so much offended that she has decided, to prefer charges against Daughter Angelina Blocker. Charges have been preferred with Manhattan Temple, and they will be heard by a committee of the Temple. When seen by an Age representative, Mrs Kimbough was not inclined to discuss the affair, as it was a Daughter Elk affair, but when asked why she did not bring action in Detroit, she intimated that she was living up to the law of her order. CARTERS GIVE DAUGHTER A GOING-AWAY PARTY Mr. and Mrs. Samuel R. Carter of 340 Washington avenue were host and hostess for a party on Thursday september 11, which was given in honor of their daughter, Dorothy B Carter of Mobile, Ala., who has sure returned to enter school. The home was beautiful decor- The home was beautiful decorated for the occasion. Among the guests were Mr. and Mrs. Baldwin, Mendame, Levert, Matthews, Bessie Thomas, Edith Sealy, George Johnson, Rosa Brooks, Fannie Gueen Hattie W Brown, the Misses Evelyn Wiggin, and K. Prasett; and George Johnson, Jr. Out of town guests were Mrs. Eannie Green, and Mrs. Bessie Thomas of Mobile, Ala., Miss Blanche Dorsely of Atlanta Ga., and Mr. and Mrs. Fulsen Mallard of Washington, D. C. SISTER, BROTHER, NIECE TRIANGLE BROTHER SLASHED Sister Used Safety Razor Blade in Family Disagreement Bossie Hamilton, 22, of 47 Utica Ave., received over 100 stitches in the St. Mary's Hospital on Thursday, September 25, as the result of a fight between him and his sister. Ruth Hilton, 25, of the same address, according to the police of the Atlantic avenue station. Their two nieces, Helen Dukes, 19 and Henrietta Dukes, 21, who interrieed in the row, were also cut. Miss Hilton is alleged to have used a safety razor blade. A daily paper featured the cutting as a fight between husband and wife, using this heading, "Hubby Cut With Razor," but investigation by an Age reporter revealed that it was not so. Niece Causes Trouble According to the police, the row seemed to have started over the attention that Bossie was paying to one of the niches. It is reported that Miss Hilton was lying in her bed when the row started, and she seized the razor blade to protect herself. She slashed Bossie on the left arm and body. His cries caused the two Dukes girls to interfere, and, as a result, they were also cut. PAGE THREE ISLAND Neighbors called an officer and he went into the house to stop the fight. Detective William Schmidt of the Atlantic avenue station arrived, on the scorers and arrested the Hilton woman. She was taken to the Gates Avenue Court, where she was held in $3,000 bail on the charge of felonious assault. Bossie was taken to the St Mary's Hospital, where over 100 stitches were taken in his arm and body. The two girls were treated by Dr. Taylor of St. John's Hospital. Mr. and Mrs. Matttis Give Farewell Party For Miss Hazel Tyler One of the most attractive affairs of the past week was a farewell party given by Mr. and Mrs. Prince Mattus at their home. 1446 Pacific street, on Friday evening; September 20, in honor of Miss Hazel Tyler, who left on Tuesday, September 30, for Bordentown, N. J. Miss Tyler is the daughter of the Rev. Edward E. Tyler, pastor of Bridge Streer A M E. Church. The home was beautifully decorated for the occasion, and the hostess, assisted by Mrs. Emma Henderson, grazed no pains in making the event an enjoyable one. Among the guests were the Misses Helen Burton, Roberta Nicholson, Susie Robinson, Edna Graham, Helen Redmond, Gladys Washington, Lourie Paramore, Geraldine Cooper, Beverly Frazier and Wester Ferebee, Messrs Charles Bryant, Tyler Holt, Webster Ferebee, Francis Taylor, Harold James, Wellington Woodson, William Wyrin, Henry S. Robinson Jr., James Bowery and Oliver C. Bascombe administration, as shown by the stupidity of its leaders in refusing to waive immunity when called before a grand jury to testify. The Republican party is doubly fortunate in this state campaign in its issues and in its candidate for Governor. It shows the picture of a Republicanism revived and reinvigorated by the stimulous of a strong candidate and clear cut issues of good government, divorced from the advocacy of a doubtful experiment, however noble in purpose. To the other qualities of the head of the ticket, it might be added that in his post of United States Attorney he has proved himself fair and square on the race question.

Address all letters and make all checks and money orders payable to THE NEW YORK AGE DIRECT REPRESENTATION. was a direct result of the primary election held a year ago, the colored vote in New York State gained representation in the Republican State Committee, the election of two members of the group, Col. Charles W. Fillmore, leased the Nineteenth Assembly district, elected a full member of the committee, Charles W. B. Mitchell, co-leader, Twenty-first district, was elected member with a half vote. This election, Mr. Mitchell was questioned by so the veteran politicians as being wise precedent. The rules governing the composition of State Committee stipulate that it is composed of two members from each district, one of whom shall be a woman, provision was made for two members from the same district, with one of that district divided between the Robert S. Conklin, an assistant toorney General, was the former member from this district, Mr. Mitchell, for membership do not look at. However, it may be that the committee will revise its rules to meet exceptional situation that obtains in twenty-first district. It marks a genuine gain, even if it is accounted a slight one, for the New Yorkers of New York to finally secure representation in the State Committee based upon their votes in a primary years gone by the colored voters who represented a representative on this committee in the shape of an additional member a Committeeman-at-Large, was chosen by the votes of the members from the various districts. It supposed to voice the desires of the voters of his race, but his power is limited and his influence was largely that of his own personality as exerted on the members and officers of the ctee. This position of Committeeman was held at various times by political leaders of the race as William B. Derrick, Dr. William Carson of Albany, the Rev. J. R. Smith of Auburn, Charles M. Berrick on a rising young lawyer of New York. The last of our politicians to have a unique position was Charles W. Johnson, now Collector of Internal Revenue for the Third Collection district New York. The position was lainished in the course of the reorganization of the State Committee, in strict compliance with the rule of popular ratification. The reappearance of the Negro member of the party councils and one executive agents in this state is due to votes cast by that group in the party for delegates to the State Convention. The delegates from each Assembly district name their choice for the State Committee. It is only in this way that a group of party voters can secure in the councils of the party. The emphasisizes the importance of ever enrolling and voting in the parishes, if we would secure direct representation. As a direct result of the primary election held a year ago, the colored voters of New York State gained representation on the Republican State Committee by the election of two members of their group. Col. Charles W. Fillmore, leader of the Nineteenth Assembly district, was elected a full member of the committee while Charles W. B. Mitchell, co-leader of the Twenty-first district, was elected as a member with a half vote. This election of Mr. Mitchell was questioned by some of the veteran politicians as being without precedent. REPUBLICANISM REVIVED The Republican State Convention held at Albany last week marked a decided revival of Republicanism in this State. At last Republican voters had found a leader with courage and backbone, who dared to take a firm position on all the issues confronting the party. The policy of deferring to the fanatical prohibitionists was thrown overboard and the party platform frankly conceded the failure of the Eighteenth amendment as a temperance measure and declared for the repeal of the dry law. This was the logical prelude to the nomination by acclamation of Charles H. Tuttle, for Governor, with greater enthusiasm than has been seen or heard at any Republican convention for a good many years. The rules governing the composition of the State Committee stipulate that it shall be composed of two members from each district, one of whom shall be a woman. No provision was made for two male members from the same district, with the vote of that district divided between them. As Robert S. Conklin, an assistant to the Attorney General, was the former member from this district, Mr. Mitchell's chances for membership do not look so good. However, it may be that the committee will revise its rules to meet the exceptional situation that obtains in the Twenty-first district. The other candidates named for state offices are: For lieutenant Governor, Caleb H. Baumes of Newburgh, a State Senator from the twenty-seventh district, including Sullivan and Orange counties, and best known as the author of the Baumes laws, increasing the penalties for crimes. For Attorney General, former County Judge Isadore Bookstein of Albany, who recently assumed the political leadership of that county. For Comptroller, Daniel H. Conway, present Mayor of Oswego a successful business man who has become active in politics only during the past five years. It marks a genuine gain, even if it may be counted a slight one, for the Negro voters of New York to finally secure direct representation in the State Committee, based upon their votes in a primary. In years gone by the colored voters were accorded a representative on this committee in the shape of an additional member, called a Committeeman-at-Large, who was chosen by the votes of the members elected from the various districts. He was supposed to voice the desires of the voters of his race; but his power was limited and his influence was largely a matter of his own personality as exerted upon the members and officers of the committee. The choice of Mr. Tuttle for the nomination was the sequel to his aggressive work as United States Attorney for the Southern New York district, in the course of which he incidently uncovered the corrupt practices of Tammany politicians, especially some of the Democratic judges. His first prominence came, however, in the exposure of bankruptcy frauds, which he prosecuted with the same vigor, although many of the participants in these transactions were Republicans. He is known as a cold and calculating prosecutor of criminals, possessing himself a high character for honor and honesty. This position of Committeeman-at-Large was held at various times by such political leaders of the race as Bishop William B. Derrick, Dr. William H Johnson of Albany, the Rev. J. R. B. Smith of Auburn, Charles M. Berrian, then a rising young lawyer of New York City. The last of our politicians-to hold this unique position was Charles W. Anderson, now Collector of Internal Revenue for the Third Collection district of New York. The position was later abolished in the course of the reorganization of the State Committee, in stricter compliance with the rule of popular representation. Being the grandson of a minister, Mr. Tuttle has remained loyal to his church affiliations as an adherent of the Episcopal faith. As a Federal prosecutor he has endeavored to enforce the laws for the enforcement of prohibition, until he became convinced of the hopeless nature of the attempt. Then he offered his resignation to President Hoover and came out for the repeal of the dry amendment, and the restoring of power to the people of each state to decide the liquor question for themselves. This was coupled with some reservation as to the adoption of a new amendment, to prevent the revival of the saloon or the sale of liquor by others than the state. The extent to which Mr. Tuttle's views prevailed over the dry elements of the party may be seen by the plank adopted for the repeal of prohibition. This was adopted by the decisive vote of 733 delegates in favor to 258 opposed. The reappearance of the Negro as a member of the party councils and one of its executive agents in this state is due to the votes cast by that group in the primary for delegates to the State Convention. The delegates from each Assembly district name their choice for the State Committee. It is only in this way that any group of party voters can secure a voice in the councils of the party. This again emphasizes the importance of every voter enrolling and voting in the party primaries, if we would secure direct representation. After reciting the fact that the Republican party had initiated and adopted every measure for the control or restriction of the liquor traffic in this state, which the Democrats had opposed, it was declared that the evil in prohibition lies largely in the compulsion put upon the states which do not desire the system Restoraton as favored to each state of authority to deal with the liquor problem in accordance with the wishes of its citizens. To this end the repeal of the amendment was called for, providing that the saloon system and private traffic in liquors are forbidden and Federal co-operation and assistance guaranteed to states which have prohibition in whole or in part. OHIO DEMOCRATS BID. Ohio Democrats are making a high bid for the Negro vote this Fall. The party platform, as adopted by the State Convention, had the following declaration bearing on the civil rights of the Negro and in favor of anti-lynching legislation: Ohio Democrats are making a high the Negro vote this Fall. The pro- form, as adopted by the State Conv. had the following declaration be on the civil rights of the Negro and or of anti-lynching legislation: We invite the co-operation of the voters of Ohio and pledge the De- cide party of Ohio to use all honora uns to secure national legislat- ust mob action and lynchings and section of the civil political and "We invite the cooperation of the colored voters of Ohio and pledge the Democratic party of Ohio to use all honorable means to secure national legislation against mob action and lynchings and for protection of the civil, political and industrial rights of the colored citizens." "The Republican platform contains the following plank on the Negro; With this complete cutting aboof from the dictation of the dry minority, it looks as if the Republican party had taken on a new lease of life, giving it a chance to compete on even terms with the Democrats on the issue of good government. The Democratic administration was charged with inefficiency and waste in its conduct of the state government, which charges will be made clear to the voters. Conditions in New York City will be exposed to the fullest extent, together with responsibility of the Tasmanian Hall "We further pledge to the Negro the civil, political and religious liberty guaranteed by our State Constitution and by the Constitution of the United States." The Negro voters of Ohio are being surred up against, the re-election of United States Senator Roscoe McCulloch because. Escape their protests, he voted to confirm Judge Parker as a member of the Supreme Court. The National Associa- THE NEW YORK AGE Asserting, with some heat, that Negro banks are still marching on, the editor of the St. Luke Herald of Richmond scored their critics as follows: Our self-styled statisticians and near-sighted economists, generally speaking, have found ample latitude for their reflections and premature computations of the facts and figures concerning the few failures and record successes of Negro banks. They have dared, in a sly and sheepshway, to questions the wisdom and utility of Negro Banks. These cowardly critics, excited and persistent pessimists should not be allowed at large in the public where they can arrest widespread attention, and create a paralyzing lack of confidence in these pioneer bank establishing of our struggling people. Not excited business maniacs, but only level-headed and optimistic utility talkers should be allowed an audience at these important cross-ways of the bond-holders and the workers' world. Of course Negro Bank pioneers did not wait until Negro business was on a solid and permanent foundation off stocks and bonded securities before beginning the nativity of these establishments. Negro Banks, like Negro babies, had to come into the world when and where they could, and take the fare as they found. Under the poorest beginning circumstances some Negro Banks and some Negro babies have grown to the highest standards of service and achievements. What is the sense of raising warning objections and delivering preachments to Negro Banks for not waiting for solid business foundations, when no other enterprises nor activities of Negroes ever enjoyed such securities? Editor Coffee maintained that there has been no undue rush into banking enterprises and that the number of failures has been insignificant. If the survivors profit by the lessons taught by the failures, the result may be worth the cost. Seeling for the causes of the "Breakdown of Resistance to Lynch Law," indicated by the recent increase of mob murders, the Norfolk Journal and Guide said Just what has occurred during the past year to cause civil authorities to relinquish their determination to ure-vent lynchings or to punish lynchers may be left to speculation. There has occurred a lynching pandemic since Judge Parker's rejection and since some important court decisions affecting Negroes' civil status have been handed down. Some careful observers attribute the terrific revival of lynching to general business depression and the unemployment incident thretec. There is probably some basis in these conditions for racial animosity, which is at the bottom of all mob violence, but it would be an alarming phenomenon if this psychic state so affected the civil authorities, and the national guard—which is in reality an arm of the local civil authority—that these agencies of government became irrelevant to their duties and responsibilities. The whole situation opens to serious question the actual desire of local communities to deal effectively with mob violence under certain circumstances, and suggests the only rational remedy—federal intervention. And this would not be efficacious if it had to start with the national guard. There is no disputing the fact that with rare exceptions, the State and local authorities have abdicated their functions in dealing with mob violence. The only recourse to secure to every citizen the protection of life and property is to invoke the guaranties of the Federal constitution. Applying the principle of grabbing economic openings as they come along, the Philadelphia Tribune endorsed as practical the following proposition made by Eustace Gay, one of its contributors He pointed out that Negro barbers, waiters, waitresses, hair dressers, dentists and kitchen workers use thousands of white coats, aprons and jackets, every week. This offers an exceptional opportunity to a group of Negroes to establish a coat and apron supply company. It can work. Young Wingate established a barber supply company. He supplies most colored barbers with their razors, tonics, etc. His business prospects He is an interesting character. He had vision and is putting his job over in a big way. Then there is young Tools who, seeing the need of caskets, established a factory to supply this need. His business has grown and prospered. Both of these men had very little capital. They built their businesses by hard work. Wingate and Tools pioneered. They are the type of men who are an honor to their race. Age there no more Wingates and Tools in Philadelphia? Does not a Coat and Apron Supply Company appeal to any young Negro with vision and the ability to work hard? The examples cited show how business openings can be utilized by individual initiative, backed by energy and application. The American Baptist of Louisville, which was established in 1879 and has maintained the same shape for half a century, noting the growing tendency toward financial combinations, said: The fever has been growing and for some time it has been reported that the two banks controlled by our group in this city were considering the matter of uniting and that plants were being matured looking to that end. This week the plants have been tion for the Advancement of Colored People has instigated this opposition, which has been supported by action of the local branches in Cleveland and Cincinnati and will be taken before the state conference of the twenty-four Ohio branches at Columbus this week. The Democratic candidate for Senator, opposing Mr. McCulloch is Robert J. Bulkley, who stated his attitude toward the Negro in answers to a number of questions propounded him. He stated that he abhorred, lynching and would vote for any constitutional law to end it. As to the case of Judge Parker, he said that had he been in the Senate he would have voted against him. On the general question of the right of Negroes to appointive offices, either in the state of federal government, Mr. Bulkley took the ground that rights are equal regardless of color. This is significant as to the attitude that Northern Democrats may be expected to take in the future as to questions involving the rights of Negroes. An example of this kind was furnished in the votes of the two Senators from New York on the nomination of Judge Parker and the speech made by Senator Wagner at the time defining his attitude. The Negro voters of Ohio who wish to mark their disapproval of the Senator McCulloch's refusal to heed their protests, will not lack the opportunity to do so. ANOTHER SIDE OF LYNCHING. There is a side of lynching that is so seldom emphasized in the white press, that one can only wonder at the blindness exhibited and question if it is wilful or not. An exception to this astigmatism was found in a recent number of the Nation, that exponent of liberal opinion edited by Oswald Garrison Villard. In noting the formation of a commission to investigate the increased number of lynchings and to devise a plan for prevention, the Nation referred to a flashlight picture published in the October issue of the Crisis, of two Negroes hanging from a limb in Marion, Indiana, in the following terms: "Not the pitiful dangling forms of the lynched, but the laughing spectators that got into the picture should strike terror into the hearts of the beholder. The new commission would do well to ponder this photograph while making its report." The picture in the Crisis was called "Civilization in the United States, 1930." The complacency and self-satisfaction with which the crowd of white face-men and women, old and young, are facing the camera, is fruitful of suggestion as to their mental as well as moral intelligence quotient. They may not be all morons, but it is at least, charitable to suppose so. This is the terrible part of lynching that the white press will not see. This group of morons, who are exulting apparently over the fact that a mob has murdered two black men accused of crime but not convicted, are going to breed a new crop of like tendencies, who will likewise exult over mob murder and probably take part in such crimes. Not content with black victims they will extend their activities to white ones, like the mob at Miami, which took a white tailor from his home and after beating him up, bound him and covered him with tar and feathers. The authorities later took him from a hospital and placed him in jail, ostensibly for safe keeping. It seems that he is a member of the International Labor Defense, an organization that is not popular in Florida, because it advocates equal rights for both races. Then a report comes from so large a city as Jacksonville, Florida, that Negro bellboys were taken from a hotel and beaten by a band of one hundred white men. This was because according to one of the mob. "They would not have Negroes working around the hotels." Several hotel proprietors reported to the authorities that their bellboys and maids had quit work because of these threats and outrages. No movement appeared to be made by the police or local authorities to protect the colored employees or to arrest their assailants. These are the conditions and the people that are responsible for lynching and mob murder. The active participants are the low, grade morons who whip and kill their victims, but they are aided and abetted by the local authorities who fail to enforce the law to protect a black man or a white one whose doctrines do not find favor with the mob. The new commission on lynching will find plenty of facts and cases for its investigation, but unless it can awake the several communities to the terrible side of lynching shows in the factions of the mob, but little will be done to abate the blood lust. COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS ON SAYINGS OF OTHER EDITORS presented to the stockholders of both the First Standard Bank and the American Mutual Savings Bank and in both cases they have been approved and articles of incorporation have been authorized looking to the consummation of the plans to consolidate. This is considered a wise and logical thing to do and good will no doubt be accomplished and a stronger and more substantial bank will be the result with an increased capital and surplus, and a patronage that will mean much for the benefit of the stockholders. The leaders of the movement are to be congratulated upon the progress which has been made and the unanimity of approval which has been expressed by the people. Cohesionalities of this sort are supposed to reduce overhead expenses, besides making a larger and stronger institution. Talking about the political out look in Ohio, the Cleveland Gazette indulged in the following warning to Republican leaders: Ohio Afro-Americans used to have from a half-dozen to a dozen delegates in every state convention. Last week, there were only two in attendance at Columbus, it seems. The decrease in our number of delegates is a pretty good indication of the decrease in the interest our people have had in Republican success at the polls, in the last ten or fifteen years. This year that growing lack of interest has developed into aggressive opposition, particularly to the two leading candidates on the ticket, Roscoe C. McCulloch for U.S. Senator, and Gov. Myers Y Cooper, a candidate for re-election, that has assumed such proportions as to merit much more serious attention than ever before in the history of the party, especially since the Democratic state (and local ticket for this, Cuyahoga County) is the best in many, many years. Then this is an "off-year" one in which Republican defeat, if it is coming, usually obtains. So it behooves the leaders of our party to be up and doing, early and late, to "take nothing for granted," and wage a campaign sure as the party has not had in Ohio for many years. Victory, this year, can come only as the result of long and sustained aggressive effort. The wet and dry questions are not helping any either. Editor Harry C. Smith of the Gazette is a veteran in Ohio politics and knows whereof he speaks, even if he is not running for Governor this year. Noting what it termed "A Time to Move," in training for the science of service, the Chicago Sunday Bee said: An organization that seeks to make its members better qualified to fill the positions and fulfill the tasks assigned as the Watters and Cook Progressive Association of Chicago Watters and waitresses will be trained this fall at the Wendell Phillips High School in the science of service. Servility, which constituted largely the qualifications of those in domestic and culinary service in the pioneer days, has long since been supplanted by practical and scientific service. The reason Negro waiters and domestics have been largely supplanted by the importation of foreign help has not been so much a question of race as it has been of efficiency. We believe that the initiation of these courses for the men and women that have chosen these fields of endeavor as their means of obtaining an honest living is a step in the right direction. There is no class of work for the masses of people more remunerative than domestic service, as is attested by the millions of dollars accumulated and invested in this country by the foreign elements that control these occupations in this section of the country, in addition to the millions they send back to their relatives abroad each year. The Bee believes that efficiency in this line of service will, regain the monopoly formerly held by our group. Thorough training is the key to opportunity. That Lynching Probe That Lynching Probe From The New York Telegram At last a notable group of Southernners has set out to make a scientific investigation of the American form of savagery noun as lynchings. It is high time, for already, there have been eighteen lynchings in 1930, while the dishonor roll of all of 1929 was only twelve. The problem is not alone Southern, nor sectional, it is national. Indiana has just made its contribution to the list. The mob spirit is rife in the North as in the South. Nor is the problem solely racial. There are white victims also. Probably no better group could have been found for the investigation than that chosen by the commission on Interracial Co-operation George Fort Milton, the chairman, is editor of the Chattanooga News and a publicist of distinction. Julian Harris, another Southern editor, in 1926 won the National Pulitzer prize in journalism for "the most disinterested and meritorious service," which included his "fight for justice for the Negro and against Lynching." Howard W. Odlum is head of the Social Science Institute of the University of North Carolina. The other members are Alexander W. Spence, a Dallas attorney W. P.

Equally able is the Advocate Negro College Committee chosen to R. R. Moeon, principal of Tucson, John Hope, president of Atlanta University; Charles S. Johnson, of Saturday, October 4, 1930 The Week of October 4 Astrologically Considered October 7 begins a birthyear that will require the utmost patience, good judgment and tact in every department of life. those who are impatient will not find it worthwhile. the health should be guarded, and the diet should consist of fruits and vegetables. Strangers and crowds will hold elements of real danger, and those who avoid strangers and crowds will not regret it. those of today should associate only with real and trusted friends. Accidents through machinery, fire and travel should be guarded against. Patience will be needed in the domestic circle. Those who have patience and faith will indeed be fortunate in this birth-year. The new birthyear for October 8 will not be so hard for those who are patient and tactful in the speech and actions. The Golden Rule is the only way to happiness, and we can gain happiness in spite of any difficulty, if we do not lose courage. It seems that help will come when it is needed." New plans are not well favored. The year is best for studying and for planning for the future. Much good will come to those who do worthwhile things. October 9 promises opportunities for future success and gain to those who are already in business or an employment plan. New plans and will not be obliged to worthwhile. Changes in the family circle are indicated for nearly one. Those who try to improve what has already been started will find success. The new birthyear for October 10 will bring some recognition and honor to those who must travel long distances in the employment, and especially to those who take long voyages in their work. There will be a great need for patience, and careful judgment in many things. Those who give the best in themselves will not find the birthyear a failure. Accidents and injury should be guarded against. The readers who would like to know how to get ahead and to understand the planetary influences that are now affecting them should send the full name, the birthday, a month, year, hour and place with a stamped and self-addressed envelope and ten cards in stamps to Thearcher in care 100 West 133th street, New York City.

In contamination of his claim he cites statements by John Fiske in his 'Discovery of America,' and in 'Narrative and Critical History of America' edited by Justin Winson. Both volumes tell of the building in 1536 of Sam Miguel in Virginia by Lucas Vasquez de Asilan a wealthy and distinguished auditor of Santo Domingo, and of the presence of Negroes in the colony which eighty-one years later was founded at Jamestown by the English. Winsor in telling of the death of the Spanish explorer who ripped from Puerto Plata, started a settlement in San Miguel and who skipped with fewer made his mark. John Ramirez his successor written in part: "Troubles soon began. Grace Candel and Pedro DeBazay at the area malcontents, began a career of tyrannies. The Indians were provided to hostility and killed several settlers. The Negroes sought compensation, burned the houses of Dewey. The settlers, Oliveros and Maritario, demanded the release of a swain, aunt of Winsor, and Trenan. Baran was wounded and taken Doncel fled but was liberated near his blazing home." *Raramirez was tried, convicted and put to death.* Such was the storm begins of Spanish rule in Virginia.

By "THEARCHER" Those who observe new birthdays in this week will find that better progress can be made if they plan to pay as they go; and neither lend nor borrow money during the coming birthyear, especially during January and February 1931, when the vibrations of the ponderous planet, Saturn, will impose delays, obstacles and restrictions in almost every department of life. The vibrations will bring disaster to those who try to do more than they should or go too fast. It is best that the period be used for study and to plan ahead for future progress. Real estate, heavy financial obligations and new plans will not bring the desired results. The health should be guarded and the best diet will consist of plenty of fruits and vegetables, with very little or no meat. The birthyear for October 4 will be worthwhile for those who can carefully plan ahead. The changes that will come will be stepping stones to better things. There will be a need of very good judgment in considering any changes in the employment. No money should be loaned or borrowed and investments should be made only through a thoroughly reliable bank. Those who are patient will understand many things later and will be saved much unhappiness through misunderstandings. October 5 begins at birthyear that will bring success and progress to all who can, be patient and thoughtful. The tedium to nervous impatience and haste is not worthwhile. The intense vibrations will be hard to meet if the folks of today are not patient and tactful in every way. Plenty of rest and good foods will help. Those who are careful in the writings and the speech will find it worthwhile. The new birthyear for October 6 will work out best for those who plan to go slowly and carefully. The first paragraph will be of particular interest to those of today. There will be no help from others and those who have no deep faith in the Creator will not find the year worthwhile. Those who practice the principles of love and service in every year find this a wonderful birthyear in spite of its difficulties. Facilities test the character. The strong overcomes difficulties; the weak fail. There will be no other lesson than success or failure to learn.

Presumably these investigators will have the co-operation of the eight Southern governors who recently pledged themselves to fight this evil. Certainly the aid of all official, as well as commercial and educational, institutions is needed to make the investigation a success. The Commission, on Interracial Co-operation in appointing the investigators did not exaggerate in describing the situation as so omnious that the people "must confront afresh their task of vindicating law and civilization". But however successful this investigating group may be in uncovering the causes and fixing the blame for this barbarous system, it can hardly do more in the end than reveal the dire need for federal legislation and enforcement as one part of the solution. If the administration in Washington carries out its platform pledge to help the Negro it will insist on enactment of a federal anti-lynching law. Once before such a bill has passed the House only to be killed by a Senate minority filibuster. Now Cole Blease and some Southern Senators in that filibuster in that filibuster have been repudiated by the voters. So the administration should not have great difficulty in passing such a law if it acts with vigor and determination. Did First Negroes Settle In America In 1526 or 1619? Is Question Raised Arthur A.

Members who have returned from their summer vacation were present and were eager to resume active work in church. Dr. A. C. Garner, pastor, preached at the morning service, taking his text from John 88-32, and as his theme, "And ye shall know the Truth and the Truth shall make you." The sermon was eloquently delivered and filled with good plain truths. The choir sang as the morning arthem, "Blessed be the Name of the Lord." The program for the rally on November 10 is being planned and the idea of the pastor was enthusiastically received. Many pledges attended the program as an appreciation of the work done by Dr. Garner while at camp a liberal donation by Lieuts. Harper and Ward was made at the morning service. Some interesting work for the coming year was outlined by the pastor as the morning service: A series of subjects to cover Sunday, the period of eleven weeks have been arranged for the Sunday evening services.

Mr. Bruce (on an imminent day) began of the movement for "More and Better Jobs," and explained just what had been done by the committee for our younger generation in the way of getting them better positions. Dr. Garner made some interesting remarks, followed by Merrill Roberts, who told of the plan to raise funds to further the work of the committee. This resulted in the 645 service for the season. The Roofclck service will be resumed next Sunday evening. Rev Mr. Livingstone was a visitor at the church on Sunday evening.

The invitation is to the church Sunday, the might wish to become a member of this church family, but seldom has there been such eagerness and earnestness of purpose displayed as at this service.

In celebrating the eleventh anniversary of our church we feel to stop in the busy rush of life and give to God all praises, for having brought us this far Sunday, September 28, marked the opening of our happiest season. Eleven years ago we were worshipping in a lodge room in the old Lafayette Building. Today finds us in a modern building, a membership of more than 600 and a desire to grow. In celebrating our birthday we are not forgetting those dear ones who began, with us and have dropped by the wayside to rest with our Savour. They's memory will ever live with us, and the good deeds that were accomplished by them are bearing front. Giff's were made to the church last Sunday in token of the anniversary as follows: Clara Buchanan, $5; Kate Wofford, $3; H N Gregory, $2; W F, King, $125, $1 gifts—James H. Luke, Emma Luke, Mrs. Maud Hawkins, Scott, D. Lincoln and Francis Scott. YOU MUST REGISTER TO VOTE Register at your Regular Polling Place. Registration Daya. Monday to Friday, October 6 to 10, 5.30 to 9.30 P. M. Saturday, October 11, 7.30 A. M. to 9.30 P. M. ST. PAUL BAPT. CHURCH The funeral of the late Dr. W Brown caused us to forget to send notes of our work the past week, but the papers we bought just the same. Doubtless, however, some will come back at the pastor, and so we are putting the notes two in one for the present week. Having closed down our week and half of our time when we had with us "Little Mary Upton" preached to the great satisfaction of the large audiences that came to hear her each night; the church turned its attention to the bazaar, which is to be held in November. On Wednesday night quite a number of workers were out to a meeting of the committee, William Lovell, and the plans of the bazaar were gone over. Many helpful suggestions were made by those present, especially the ladies, who are the ones to make the matter a success. The committee decided to send notes from time ten to five nights, and to send them to the magge, which we believe, if followed Will make the bazaar a success. On-Sunday morning the time came for the workers in the church school to decide whether the morning session should be continued or not. The vote showed that the morning session instead of the afternoon session. You believe the time will come when the school will see the advantage of holding its sessions in the mornings, instead of the afternoons. However, let all join and work together now, and let the church brought back to its former size. The prayer meetings Friday night and Sunday morning showed that the revival meetings have had effect. There was a much larger number out to these meetings, and there was evidence of spiritual training that started in the revival The choir began again its processions on Sunday, led by the directress, Mrs H. A. Booker, and they made a most beautiful sight as they passed down the stage and they made a fine choir. We had a fine choir, and as fall has come it is taking on new life. The singing was greatly enjoyed by the many worshippers Sunday. The pastor of the church, though by no means feeling well, either morning or evening, preached two sermons, which judging from the comments on them, were telling messages. He took his time Sunday morning and evening, preaching in the morning on the text: "For we walk by faith, not by sight"; and in the evening, "For we walk by faith, thee we must be born again." The sermons, we believe, will live long in the memories of those who heard them. Little Mary Ushur will be with us again, beginning next Sunday, and will preach every night for at least ten nights. We are booking great results from these meetings. While the Lord has greatly blessed the membership in that we have had but very few deaths during the year, yet, there are some of the older members who are sick Messrs. Kates and Lewis, both of them old men are sick the one in his home. 435 West 35th street WHERE TO GO TO CHURCH the other in the hospital on 'Welfare Island.' We pray for both of these. M.T. OLIVET CHURCH At Mt. Olive Baptist Church, Sunday morning, September 28 the pastor, Rev. W. P. Hays, preached on the subject, "Tomorrow." "It was a message of faith and anticipation. He explained that although yesterday has passed, and that we should good today, yet there is a chance for rectifying mistakes on tomorrow. He spoke of how the prophets looked, far ahead in the future, foretelling Christ's coming, and the fate of the world; that hope for the future tomorrow keeps us strong today. He to do the same manner in which the Israelites were kept in the wilderness and how the colored race were kept in slavery and the ultimate results, showing—that all things work to change the world. These changes as growth, prophessing that envy, malice, hatred, greed and truth which has been crushed to earth—of today shall be changed into peace, fellowship, justice, goodwill and, truth which should be the reason of the rest. Following the infant son of Mr. and Mrs. Harmon was prayed for by the pastor. The child was the great-grandson of Mrs. Wisher, the widow of the founder of Mr. Olivet Church. At 1:30 o'clock, the two Bible classes met and held interesting sessions. At 13 o'clock, Apex Temple Lodge, No 387, and the Henry Lincoln Johnson Lodge, No 630 of the Elks held Memorial service in honor of the late Col. Henry Lincoln was interesting and touching, and the eublegs were strong, portraying the deep respect, love and fellowship felt for the departed. Among the speakers were Miss Stokes, an attorney, Mrs George S. Williams, National Commissioner, Education Commission, Commissioner of Education and the Wilson grand exalted ruler. The Henry Lincoln Johnson Band rendered excellent music. At 13 o'clock the B, Y, P U had a social service meeting.

He concluded by warning against lining up with the forces of evil or darkness and the harm of insincerity and deceit.

CHURCH It has always been a question for them on a trail, if there is something more valuable in what they pursue for, what they have seem to be not satisfying, and mission is less important, will more than compensate them for the venture." This was the dominant note of the sermon delivered by the pastor, Dr Edward Ernest Tyler at the morning hour at Bridge Street Church. His text was St. Mark 10.21. Other points in the sermon were that we do but what we are; in other words, it is not just doing something, but in being something. The reason men and women cannot trust God is because we want to see the end in the beginning. Dr. Tyler closed with a fervent plea that young and old who have heard the call or felt the urge for the call or following God, to answer the call. Seven persons joined the church when the invitation was extended. At the vesper services, the Allen Christian Endeavor League met.

He delivered a strong sermon on the importance of Herod and John the Baptist. The text was St. Mark 14:12, Rev. Barrow stressed the thought that as in Herod's time so it is today; righteousness is the great need. There is also the same tendency today as then for persons to have a desire to get even with those on against righteousness; for they do right that: Retaliation is not the right spirit for the real Christian One person joined the church when the invitation was extended.

The education and annual turning out of all the three hundred young men and women for lives useful to themselves and their families is of course a most important and valuable achievement, only one part of what he did ought to do.

Whitney, program director; Richard B. Harrison, promoter. 2LEFT ST MEM CHURCH Chosing to speak on "A Victorious Life." Rev. W. C. Brown's sermon Sunday morning, furnished the best illustration of the life of the human race; the career of the life of the soul; from the embryo to the cultivation of the proposition that, "life is a comedy to those who think: a tragedy to those who fell; but a victory to those who believe." The pastor held the attention of his intelligent and responsive audience as he taught this great lesson in life and truth together with perseverance were so closely intertwined. An unusual hour of pleasure was enjoyed during the Sunday school period. All members are responding cheerfully to the call of the leaders, and with the continued assistance of a force of trained workers, this promises to be a banner year for the school. C. Addison Turner of Washington, D. C., was a very pleasant visitor at the school hour. On this day, Woman's Day was observed throughout Zion connection.

CHURCH Sunday was Registration Day at Siloam, Dr. George Shippen Stark pastor. This service brought out a THE large number of members and friends who registered their attendance. The pastor had as his pulpit guest, a former classmate, Rev. Joseph Garner, who took part in the services of the morning. Basing his remarks from Acts 17:30, and St. Matthew 16:28, the pastor clearly and strongly brought out that man must first settle his relationship with God, as the great principle to -make him -strong. If man sustains this sure and vital relationship with God, God will work with him and through him each and every day of his life and all of his returning to his daily life here and now. It is, a matter of good business; of good sense to have this right - relationship with God, peace with God. God is greater than all of our troubles and our cares, and if we are conscious of sustaining this right relationship with God we will have strength enough to overcome. Great value of man lies in his soul and in his spirit. Do we put a high value on our spirituality? The greater part of a man's life is the expression of his soul because his body is steadily and slowly breaking up. What ever is real and great in you, take for your soul. What would you take for your soul? Please yourself a prohibitive value. Sustain a right relationship with God. If you love God live that way. There is need of the peace of God to come into confused and nervous hearts. The Bible School meet at its regular hour.

Holland Is Iron Man They had seen Bill Holland perform the iron-man stunt of winning the first game of the final double-header by a score of 6-2 and then attempt to duplicate the feat in the second contest. For seven innings he held the Grays to 1 run. He weakened in the eighth and allowed four hits, which accounted for 4 runs, making the final score of the series 5-2. Iloyd, the veteran manager of the Lincoln Giants, went down fighting. Oldtimers who have watched him play for years, say they never saw him, play better than in this series. He got a perfect score at bat in the first game Sunday, getting 3-hits in three trips to the plate. He was also a tower of strength for his teammates on the defensive. Stars For Local Team Others who stood out for the local team besides Lloyd and Holland were Larry Brown, catcher and Rojo, also a catcher, but who starred in Saturday's double header as a pinch hitter. The Grays were leading the Lincolnss 8-5 in the ninth inning of the first game on Saturday when Rojo went in to bat for Yancey after Lefty Williams had filled the bases by passing three men in a row. Manager Fossey sent Joe Williams in to rehearse Lefty and Rojo hit the first ball Joe pitched into deep right field for a triple. He was scored by Rector, making the final score of the game 9-8. Grays Win First Two The Grays broke even in Saturday's double-header by taking the second game, 2—3. They had divided double-headers in Friday's games in Philadelphia and in New York on the Sunday before. By taking the first two games in Pittsburgh, they came to, New York with the Giants on the defensive, and they kept them playing defensive ball throughout the series. Gibson, the Gray's new catcher, and George Scales, who played both first and second base, were easily the stars of the series With Rector pitching, on Saturday Gibson hit a home run that went into the left field bleachers, a distance of 460 feet. It was the longest home run that was hit at the Yankee Stadium by any player, white or colored, all season. Jake Stevens was also in splendid form for the series. Brutt made the best record among the pitchers. Complete scores of the last four games were as follows: SATURDAY'S GAMES H.

NEGROES STAR IN TRACK MEET HELD IN JERSEY CITY Tolan, Lewis, Utterbach And Moore Perform Before 35,000 Jersey City, N. J. - About 35,000 people gathered here at Spadig Field Saturday afternoon to witness the Jersey City Tercentenary games. It was as picturesque a track meet as the East has ever witnessed. The large crowd saw Negro athletes from various sections of the country win places in 9 of the 18 events. They saw Eddie Tolan, Negro star of the University of Michigan beat -Reginald "Pete" Bowyen by four feet in the 100-yard dash-invitation in 0.10 seconds—good time for the slow condition of the underpunning. John Lewis, another Negro star of the Detroit City City in the 100-yard dash in 0.11 15.2.5 of a second faster than the accepted 34-year old international standard to whip "Pete" Bowyen by 2 yards. Officials agreed to measure the distance later for, if the distance is correct, Lewis's performance would have to be regarded as the outstanding racing accomplishment of 1930. In the 850-yard run, E. Brown of the Brooklyn Harriers took fourth place finishing behind H. Campbell, James LaFose and J. J. Cole. In the one-minute run-in-mentation, Gus Moore of the Brooklyn Harriers was third, 11 yards behind Gene Venzke who won the event. In the 120-yard high hurdles-institution, an event which was won by R. Maxwell, Los Angeles, A. C. D. Layor of the Brooklyn Harriers missed third.

SCREEN Lewis Sets New Record For 300-Yard Dash At McCombs Dam Park A large field of Eastern track and field stars helped celebrate the 25th anniversary of the opening of McCombs Dam Park Athletic field Sunday September 28, and by way of celebration John Lewis, Negro star of Detroit City, College, set a new track record in the 1980s with his best Jerry Rosenberg of the Mohawk Athletic Club in 32 1-5 seconds. Gus Moore of the Brooklyn Harriers helped the celebration along when he beat Tom McDonough, national junior 3-mile title holder, in the three-mile handicap event. Moore who started from scratch with McDonough had no difficulty in leaving his rival behind. Everett Utterback, former University of Pittsburgh star, won the high jump with a leap of 6 feet. 3 inches and came out of the heat of the day when he took second place in the running broad jump. Kermit King of the Salem Crescent A. C. took third place in the latter event. Eugene Brown of Brooklyn Harriers won the 880-yard event while Deotee Taylor of the game club won second place in the 220-yard low hurdle event. Under auspices of the 369th Infantry Athletic Association, many old champions were dethroned by the onrush of new talent, recently enlisted in the outfit. All in all, the meet proved a great success, masmuch as it uncovered many new faces and gave the athletic officer, Captain Rufus A. Atkins, an idea of the material he will have available for the coming indoor season. To start the avalanche, Private Briscoe, of Howitzer company, defeated the former 100 and 220 yard champion, Leslie Wainwright of Headquarters Co., in a blanket finish. Bill Ash, the crack relay specialist, in his qualifying heat and will hear watching the coming indoor season. In the 220 yard dash, Klune, formerly of De Witt Clinton High School, beat Leslie Wainwright to the tape by inches, who was closely followed by Payne, a newcomer of Headquarters company who placed third. The third upset came in the 440 yards run, which was won by Walker of Company C, when he led Ash of 1st Battalion Headquarters company to the tape by ten yards, who was closely followed by Bill Burnell of Company K (Kats). The half mile run was won by Corp W William Halsey, of Company C, who won as he pleased from Corp Ellison of A Company. Third honors in the race went to Deck Foulkes of Medical Detachment, who because of a recent injury to his ankle was forced to forego competing in the 100 and 200 yard races, in which events he holds the record of the National Guard. In as much as this was Foulkes' first distance race of his career, credit must be given him for the wonderful display of grit, which he exhibited by running against his more experienced rivals. The 2-mile run was won by Arthur Hall of A Company followed by Walter Hunter, his team mate, who trailed him by more than 50 yards. Third honors went to Norford of Company C a newcomer. The half mile relay for the championship of the regiment proved to be a humdinger, for it was tooth and nails all the way to the anchor relays, which were taken up by Ash and Fowkles, respectively. Fowkles made his bid in the first part of the race to overtake Ash, who had an advantage of a yard at touch off of batons, but when the home stretch was reached Ash outprinted him to the tape to win the race by 15 yards and the .regimental championship. This was conceded by the spectators to be the best race of the meet, for it had every one on his toes until the breaking of the tape. The team trophy went to the First Battalion, Major Andrew P. Lamb, commanding. High scoring honors went to Company C, Captain Peterson, commanding officer. Solomon Worde Keeps New Jersey Tennis Title Westfield, N. J. - Solomon (Happy) Worde of Elizabeth, won the men's singles event of the closed tournament of the New Jersey Tennis Association here September 27, on the courts of the Shady Rest Country Club. By virtue of winning this match which was postponed from Labor Day, Worde won the title of tennis champion of the state. The final round match was an uphill battle for the ultimate winner. After leaping the first two sets, his strokes became sharper in the third set and won that set, but not as easily as the score indicates. After the intermission Worde was the master of the situation. His opponent, Harvey Butler of Montclair, was practically overwhelmed, in the last set. The score was 5:7, 3:0, 0:2, 6:2, 6:0.

These two favorites will be supported by a cast of 60 colored artists. The company is still on the road and from all reports coming in is a real hit, "Brown Buddies" is a story about a company of colored soldiers who left the mud flats of East St. Louis to do their bit for Uncle Sam in the muddy trenches of France during the World War. The soldiers are followed by a group of colored Y. M. C. A. entertainers from the old home town and a pretty romance develops between the star of the "Y" unit, Adelaide Hall, and the top sergeant, Bill Robinson. The piece abounds in real, wholesome comedy, delightful ballads, hilarious comedy numbers, lively dances and pleasing harmony interwoven with a convincing and appealing heart-interest. Bill Robinson is considered one of the leading comedians of the day. Until a little over two years ago he played over the Keith Circuit consistently for 30 years. He was the star of "Blackbirds of 1928" which ran successfully in New York for more than a year and when the company left for Europe for a successful tour, he went back to vaudeville. During the past season he has enjoyed many return engagements at the Palace Theatre, New York. Besides being a genuinely funny and a natural comedian, he is recognized as the greatest tap dancer of all time and only recently was acclaimed so by the American Association of Dance Masters. Adelaide Hall, scintillating costar of "Bojangles" in this new musical comedy; appeared with him in "Blackbirds" and was recently featured with him in vaudeville this event, and a like number of times has the Montclairite been the runner-up. The mixed doubles title found its way into new hands. Mrs. Martha Davis of Flintbeth and Henry Williams of Newark, garnered the crown by winning their final round match from Miss. Elvira Marcellus and William Willis of Plainfield. This was a bitterly contested match, with the 1929 winner sweeping every point before they succumbed to Mrs. Davis and Mr. Williams. The score in this match was 4-6: 6-3, 6-1. A ADELAIDE HALL, who will return to Broadway as one of the stars of "Brown Buddies," which opens at the Liberty Theatre next week.

Miss White, as you may know, was a Ziegfeld star a decade ago, and in collaboration with William Rock, also a headliner of Ziegfeld. Leaving the Follies, Rock & White started an unusual show, the entire company comprising Rock White and Frank Gardner, who just filled in spots to let Rock & White make their changes. Actually, Mr. Gardner appeared only twice in the 2-hour show. The orchestra for this show comprised all colored musicians under the direction of the late William H. Tyers. Ernie Golden, now a musical power on Broadway, was musical director, and alternated with Tyers in the pit. The contractor for the job was Deacon Clief on, then manager-president of the Clerf Club Members of the orchestra sung and played solos and quartets from the pit, and made a big hit in the show. Starting from New York on one-night stands, the show rose to week, and then to month stands, returning to several big towns for return engagements. It was in Chicago the show closed owing to an attack of appendicitis by Miss White. An operation was performed. Mr. Rock kept the orchestra on pay for two weeks in Chicago, having been told by the doctors that Miss Whites could return to the stage shortly. This prediction proved erroneous. So after 9 months' continuous playing—with a break of a week, but that's another story—the show closed, cancelling an expected trip to California. All the musicians were highly regarded and considered, by both Mr. Rock and Miss White. Just an incident to prove the quality of Miss White for her colored orchestra. We were in Washington, going South. Mr. Sugarman, white, manager of the company, got tickets for the whole company on a boat to break the monotony of a train ride Reaching the boat, before Mr. Sugarman or Rock & White, the orchestra hung around the dock. Then appeared the manager. He was seen on the boat in confab with the purser: The orchestra sensed trouble. Miss White appeared, passed us with the remark, "Why not get on boys." She had soon joined Sugarman and the purser. Then her voice was raised, "Where is the Captain?" The gold-braided Captain appeared, courteous, but hum. "No," he was sorry, "but it couldn't be done. Orders are orders." Miss White stormed, using language to the captain not sent over the not-light. "Those boys," she concluded, "are good, well-behaved, decent boys. I wouldn't think of having them go in the hold" Sugarman, you go and get thigm Pullman accommodation on the train." This was done. So it was with genuine regret that many orchestra members of the famous Rock & White Co., read of the misfortune of a woman who had on many occasions shown sincere regard for their welfare. The personnel of the orchestra was as follows Hall Johnson and Althe Lecare, violin; Gar Van Houten, cornet, Frank Witches, trombone; Masie Mullins, tenor saxophone; Harry Simmons, drums; Morgan and Pate Zabriskie, banjos; P Outram, flute and piccolo; John Ricks, bass; Ed Ransome, piano and soloist; Wm. C Elkins, banjo and director of quartet. The powers-that-be would not allow Mr. Buchanan to stay resigned from the management of the Savoy Ballroom. After being out from the Savoy for about eight weeks, Mr. Buchanan is back, assuming his old position, which he has held for three or four years, since the ballroom had opened its doors to the public. Alert, active, intelligent, Mr. Buchanan has maintained a high standard of efficiency in every department of the spacious ballroom. He was ably assisted by Harold Parker, who was elevated in Mr. Buchanan's absence, but now Mr. Parker has returned to his assistant managership. This story may sound strange, but it is vouched for by one of the guffering musicians. Seven musicians working in a night club, making a living in these strenuous times. Everything going fine. Then one night a group around a table, near the colored musicians' stand, enjoying themselves immensely. A woman of this group leaves her escort and the others of her party, finds the manager and gives him a card. She explained to him that the card was given her by one of the musicians. The "host" thanked her for coming to him, and all mentioning the matter to any of her party. At closure hour, the proprietor gave the musicians together, produced the record and told the leader of the orchestra they were all "fired" "Sunsore" said the "hosts" "that girl had mentioned the circumstance to her escort or to any of her group" Suppose they were gunned! There surely would be some dead bodies lying around and where would my business be? Out you all go!" The patterns of this place are exclusively white.

The rooms were beautifully decorated with flowers from her own garden by children of the neighborhood, all nationalities included. The guests at first tried to surprise her Sunday, September 21, her real birthday but she got on to their plans and invited her friends to come Saturday evening and stay until Sunday. The evening was spent in games, dancing, music and feasting. Although the guests were told to bring no present, many valuable and useful gifts were given Mrs. Harper.

At The Roosevelt How popular songs are manufactured is shown in detail in "Children of Pleasure," the engrossing MY PHILOSOPHY RUTH R. DENNIS Last week I attended an Educational Congress at Bethel A. M. E. Church. This negotiation of ministers came from all parts of the first episcopal district report money raised during the year for education. ```markdown ``` Through blood and tears they came brining their sacrifice money a n d the eco- nomic depression was serious, there was a creditable reporting from all districts. To a casual listener, the gathering in of this money for Wilberforce, a church school in Ohio, might seem unnecessary and little but he had only to hear Bishop Ransom's address on Wednesday morning to be convinced that not only was such, sacrifice necessary but it was imperative. Imperative, not exclusively for its academic advantages—they may be requested here in New York or elsewhere at any recognized school—but what makes the sacrifice for Wilberforce and, other race schools imperative is the fact that our schools do infinitely more than impart knowledge to the youth of our race group. They do what other schools, no matter how highly graded, they may be, can never escape for our race group. They free their spirit and they come forth from Wilberforce and other race schools superior men and women to the race graduates of any other institutions. Bishop Ransom started further that only as the Negro supported his own educational institutions and imparted to the youth pride of attendance upon his own schools could we hope to have in the future men and women with free spirits to cope with the free spirits of other races. romantic drama of "Song Row" in New York, which comes to the Roosevelt Theatre, Thursday and Friday, October 2 and 3 Lawrence Gray, who has the leading role, shows how it is done, and the making of a song hit from idea to stage presentation is revealed. The picture tells a jense, dramatic story of a popular song composer's romance, Harry Reamont, who filmed "The Broadway Meleds" directed "Children of Pleasure" with Wineie Gibson, Helen Johnson, Benna Rubin and Kenneth Thomson in the supporting cast. Brilliant song hits ad natural color scenes are included. The continental waltz most graceful of all ballroom dances, is the only one, it seems, that Hollywood's "extras have difficulty in doing correctly." During the filming of Lilian Gish's first take "One Romantic Night," which will be presented at the Roosevelt Saturday to Monday, October 4, 5 and 6, considerable time was wasted teaching the jazz-wise "extras" the proper way to waltz. The tendency of the 'atmosphere' powers was to woo their bodies and turn, whereas the continental wake is strictly formal, with no role or backward movements. Finally, in Russia, who was once a high officer in the Imperial Guard, volunteered to serve as tea bear. This little incident demonstrates the great care taken in producing "One Romantic Night" which is based on the celebrated Frenec Molnar stage play "The Swan." An excellent cast supports Miss Gish Rod LoRoque Conrad Nazek Marie Dressler and O P. Heggie are some of the players who assist in brining to the screen the romantic flavor and tense moments of drama which characterized the original play. At The Odeon Theatre The popularity of "The Last Mist" and "The Big House" which are attracting the Irish to Broadway, has led to the production of another gripping prison drama, which will be presented at the Odson Theatre on Saturday Sunday and Monday, October 4, 5 and 6. It is called "The Convict's Code" and is enacted with a cast of starring entertainers, headed by Colleen Landis. One of the most gripping scenes in this picture is arill break, in which hundreds of indicted prisoners make a desperate attempt for freedom, just as one of their number is being sent to the chair. Nothing in stage or fiction is more gripping and realist than this episode. Sharing honors with the powerful praison story is Hope Velesu in "The Storm" one of the grim stories set to come to the talking screen. The story deals with two men, friends who are penned up in a mansion and cabin with the zebra whom both love. While death in starvation closes down upon all three the love hungers in the hearts of the men hourly brings them closer to each other's throat. A grimning new chapter of the serial story, "The Lone Defender" will also be shown on this remarkable two-feature program Rin Tin Tin is the star. At The New Douglas After Lion Chimp's untimely death hundreds of requests came to the management of the Deaths. Theatre to bring back the death's fate a great success.

Jazz Lips Richardson At Lafayette Next Week The management of the Lafayette Theatre feels that it has came for congratulation in securing Jazzjazz Richardson, as the feature attraction for the show which will start Saturday, October 4. With Alberta Hunter, Margaret Simm and King Oliver and his Band already in the show, next week's stage entertainment at the Lafayette Theatre certainly gives every promise of being better than any show seen at Harlem during the last two or three years. Jarvis is head and shoulders all over everyone else, the star of 'Hot Chocolate.' As an eccentric comedian, he has no equal on the American stage. As a straight comedian, he also takes first rank, having for the past ten years been the magnet of many a Broadway play. Jarvis was hooked to play at the Palace Theatre with the cooperation of his manager, the date was determined to permit him to first appear where he likes best to work the good old Lafitte. The show will be entitled "This Was Out." His role will also mark the first time he will try to say regency in a local stage of Alabama.

This is true of the educated as well as of the half-educated. According to the newer view, an educated man is one who is making good and continuous progress in his interminal education. In this present age of the present day college, he has unbounded opportunity not only for an invaluable service to society, but also for exploration in educational fields not yet mapped out nor crossed with well-worn trails, which in the end will produce healthy minds. Katy Ferguson Home There are many worthy institutions in Harlem but the most noteworthy of all, churches excepted, is a home located at 162 West 150th street, near Seventh avenue. This establishment is a modest brown stone front, seemingly reluctant to broadcast the fact that here is an institution that all Harlem may well be proud of because on the record of practical good it has made in the last ten years. The Katy Ferguson Home for Unmarried Mothers has given hope and cheer and help and a bright horizon on life to a bright thousand girls in the past decade, making them assets rather than liability. It's service is similar and just as invaluable as that rendered by the church. The difference is that one is primarily engaged in saving souls, while the other is rehabilitating lives.

Fess has always been one of Hariem's greatest favorites, where a tremendous following has been clamoring for his return for the memory of his "Annabelle Lee" "Comm" Virginia" and other tunes' that will live on forever. Fess-Williams now beats on the greatest band in his career, and he is all set to give the Savoy patrons a run of dance music, the lure of which has never been known, for he is returning with brand new tunes, new songs and a new smile that will gain acclaim him as the Personality King. All in all, Fridia, October 3, promises to be a red hot night, for two other hands will be on hand to make things interesting for the Fess Williams' return and an evening of spectacular music and entertainment in store on the Savoy "Night of Happiness."

A house is built from these and that. From window panes—and forest trees A home is made from books, and those Long cobbin tales that father knows. A house is built on common soil. To make it strong and stand alone. A home is built on Love and Prayer With doors of laughter here and there. A house is made of this, and that But only homes are built on God.

JOHN SHELTON'S BAG FOUND IN RIVER AT ALBANY Finding of Body a Week Earlier Was Mystery; Thought a Suicide The hand bag. of the late John Shelton was found this week in the Hudson, near Albany. Shelton, who lived at 151 West 140th street, Manhattan, went to Saratoga last June to spend his vacation. He left this place and is supposed to have gone to Albany to take a night boat for New York. He was not heard from any more until his body was found last week in the Hudson River near Albany. As to how he was drowned, and where abouts of his luggage, were puzzles to the officials investigating the case. The finding of the bag has somewhat clarified the mystery. It is said that the man had been suffering from an incurable disease for a number of years, and was also a religious fanatic. It is thought that these two extremes preyed on his mind and caused him to commit suicide. Mrs. W. T. Bush, for whom Mrs. Shelton had worked for more than twenty-eight years, left for Europe Wednesday. Before leaving she she arraigned with her lawyer to look, after the estate of Shelton. He is survived by a sister, who came to New York from Virginia this week. The condition of the body was such that it could not be brought here, and was buried in Albany.

ON REAR OF AUTO CAUSES MURDER Motorists Slapped Jumper, Then Stabbed Man Who Interfered --- When Henry Griffin, 32 years of age, of 257 West 128th street, interfered Sunday evening, September 28, when two colored motorists Slapped a colored boy for jumping on the hear of their auto, an altercation followed and the result was that, Griffin received three stab wounds in the body, from which he died at Harlem Hospital early Monday morning. The altercation occurred in front of 110 West 143rd street, and in his effort to get away, Griffin jumped on the rear of another automobile which stopped in front of 156 West 136th street. The wounded man jumped off the car and attempted to walk to Harlem Hospital, but passers-by saw him bleeding and commandeered a taxicab for the purpose. Detectives Garvey and Flinter attached to the 32nd Precinct, were assigned to the case and a few hours later they arrested Richard Lewis of 53 East 133rd street. Lewis had blood-stains on his coat and pants, and is alleged to have admitted that he was one of the men who fought with Griffin at the time he was stabbed. Lewis denied that he did the stabbing, but refused to give the police the name of his companion, for whom they are now searching. According to the police, Griffin had a criminal record...but recently had been going straight. So far as the police have been able to ascertain, he had no weapon on him when he was stabbed. Kings Co. Republican Organization Meets The Kings County Colored Republican Organization held an interesting meeting at the headquarters of the Kings County Committee, 160 Montague street, on Wednesday evening, September 24. It was the first meeting since the adjournment for the summer. Assistant, U. S. Attorney Francis F. Giles, president of the organization presided. Plans were made for the getting out of a large registration this year. Various clubs throughout the county, which are affiliated with the county organization, told of their activities during the summer and the last few weeks. Clarence J. Holland, president, and executive member of the 17th Assembly District Colored Voters' League, told of the upbuilding of his club, and the removal from Summer avenue to S. Herkimer street, a more central location. This district has the largest number of Negro voters in the county. It has been largely through the colored vote in the past that this district has been able to send a Republican Assemblyman to Albany, but last year they failed. This year, leader Holland is determined to aid the white leader, Major Corwin, in electing Robert K. Story as Assemblyman. Two years ago, Story was elected, but did not run last year, having accepted a judicial nomination, but was defeated, as the judicial district was largely Democratic. "Chief." Wesley Young Helps Endorse Cropsey "Chief" Wesley L. Young, veteran leader of the Negro Democrats of Kings County, was the only colored man a member of the second judicial district convention that nominated and indorselt Justice James C. Cropsey, Republican, for re-election to the Supreme Court for another term of fourteen years. Mr. Young who resides at 207 Butler street, represented the Eighth Assembly District. He will also represent this district at the State Convention. The decision of the Democrats to endorse Justice Cropsey means the elimination of organized Democratic opposition in the coming campaign, assures his re-election, and makes him the first Republican member of the Supreme Court in Brooklyn to receive a Democratic party endorsement in a period of perhaps twenty years. The Judicial Convention was held in the Thomas Jefferson Building, 4-5 Court Square. E. T. Welcome, former Negro Democratic leader of Queens County, and now spokesman for the National Colored "Voters" League of Jamaica, came out last week with plea for the recognition of the colored voter in Queens County. In his statement, which was given out on Thursday, September 25, Mr. Welcome said in part: "It is about time that the colored people of this borough were given recognition for their services, and he readily said that we will get this recognition to hold the election results in our hands with the 13,000 votes controlled by us." Mr. Welcome also stated that Borough President Harvey will be asked to find places for colored workers in the construction work projected in the borough. THINGS SEEN, HEARD AND DONE AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYEES With daylight saving time securely packed away in moth balls, and summer timetables safely placed in storage, on Sunday, September 28, at 12.01 a.m., Eastern railroads brought out their schedules for the fall and winter season. Glancing over these schedules, one finds considerable changes, as compared with last year's operation of passenger trains. "This is particularly noticeable in the new timetables of the New York Central and the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroads. How One Woman Lost 20 Pounds of Fat Lost Her Double Chin—Lost Her Prominent Hips— Lost Her Sluggishness Gained Physical Vigor — Vivaciousness — a Shapely Figure These roads have combined some of their passenger trains, have changed the numbers of some have moved some back, and others forward, in their leaving time from terminals, and have abolished a few entirely: The New York Central, for instance, has abolished one of its oldest, and at one time, most popular trains . . . Perhaps, the railroad wouldn't refer to it as being abolished, for it has been combined with another train. But, in a sense, that's practically what has happened to it. Anyway, it has been combined with which amounts to the same thing. And speaking of trains, there is something about their existence that corresponds closely with the existence of individuals. Take, for example, the train referred to in the foregoing paragraph For years this train, Number 3, was one of the most popular operated on this road between New York and Buffalo. Called the "Fast Mail," although in late years the name was changed to the "Chicago Express," next to the "Empire State Express," it was the favorite carrier for upstate passengers. Its time out from the Grand Central Railway, in Philadelphia, behind the "The Empire," and it made stops which the other train didn't make, such as Poughkeepsie, Schenectady, Rome, Lyons, and other small cities on the Central's main line between the two terminals. Unlike "The Empire," it was an interstate train, its Western terminal being Chicago.

During the State Assembly sessions at Albany, legislative members, delegations of all kinds, as well as persons on pleasure bent, found it a, convenient train with which to reach that city, Commercial men, too, comprised its list of patrons. In, short, the train enjoyed a highly respectable vogue with travelers in New York State. But alas! Like the individual, time and tide proved to be rather unkind to old Number 3. Newer and faster trains supplanted its vogue. Last Sunday, it finally became passe, leaving only a memory of its former popularity. The fate of that train is not an isolated case in the railroad world. Similar cases occur every year in the operation of passenger trains. Every railroad man will attest to that experience. Only in the past year, both the New York Central and The New Haven have put into operation trains which have dimmed the popularity of certain of their older carriers. In the case of the former road, there is the "Twentieth Century Limited," which has been known for years as America's premier train.

These roads are specifically cited because of greater familiarity with, the operation of their trains and from personal observations. But it might be said, without dispute, that similar situations could be quoted from any railroad of the A-1 class. On the other hand, like individuals, again, there are railroad trains which neither time nor conditions have been able to change in popularity. For instance, the Pennsylvania Railroad's "Congressional Limited," between Washington and New York. Trains come, and trains go, but this train is just as popular today as it was the first year of its operation. Of course, the naming of every railroad which has trains that have held their own, despite the addition of rival trains, is too much of a task to compile here. It is sufficient to say that persons who have enced the situation. So if you care to philosophize on trains and their existence, you will find that they are very much like human beings. Idols today but forgotten tomorrow, while others retain their popularity perennially.
