D., principal Arlington Literary and Industrial School, Anne Manie, Ala., was elected Moderator. Important and interesting to the general public may be noted the following items of business: The General Assembly was overtured to change the name of Tennessee Presbytery to The Presbytery of the South. General Assembly was also overtured to change the name of the Prodigent's Board to some more appropriate name for the work it is doing today. There is no more Freedman for it to serve. Prof. H. A. Robinson was elected Commissioner to the General Assembly meeting in Philadelphia, Pa., next May.

C., gave a stirring address on "The Necessity of Christian Education Today." This is Rev. James and many came to hear Mr. James, G. D., A. B.

Kelly Griffin, D. D., president of Knoxville College, spoke on The Sacredness of the World Movement Pledge. Dr Griffin proved to be an musical speaker of great oratorical power, without making any effort at being bequest. The church choir was at its best and rendered a very pleasing musical program. Following the program, the ladies of the church invited the delegates and the Community Hall, where banquet tables were urged good thines. Dr. J. A. Cotton presided as toastmaster and was most happy in his presentation of various speakers. Rev. W. G.

He also said that there should be no trouble in making up your minds to help your Negro friends in the other native world that you and every other Negro could point to with pride. I want to say as I always say, first, let us get ourselves right with God. If you get your hearts right with God, it won't be a hard job to get yourselves organized in the U. S. God.

He said he wanted every body in Liberty Hall to take out one or as many Construction Loans as they could afford in order to help in the furtherance of the industrial, commercial and financial aspects of the association in its construction plans in America and Africa.

Dr. James Hardy Dillard, president of the Joanes and Slater Boards, rector of William and Mary College, and member of the General Education Board, delivered the principal address. Dr. Dillard outlined the world-wide influence of Gen. Samuel Chapman Armstrong, who founded Hampton Institute in 1888, and remained its principal death in 1893. Emerging a distinguished American delivers the Armstrong memorial address. Among those who have spoken in previous years are: Franklin K. Lane, William Howard Taft, Robert R. Moton, Woodrow Wilson, and Lyman Abbott. General Armstrong was a missionary said Dr. Dillard, "but he had something in him which missionaries sometimes lack. He had what we may call the democratic mind. He worked in the spirit of equality rather than in the spirit of condescension. Without this spirit he could never have done the work he did, nor given him which he gave, nor spread the influence which still abides in his memory. "Not any more than there was in the heart of Abraham Lincoln was there in the heart of General Armstrong one drop of rancor or of desire or vengeance, toward the Southern white people, high or low. His attitude toward the state of sympathy and co-operation. The South from the first respected him. NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, FEBRUARY 5. 1921 Thirtieth Tuskegee Negro Conference Attracts Many Farmers Throughout South Movement Started by Late Booker T. Washington is Being Successfully Carried Forward by Dr. Moton and Has Become an Annual Event That Is Eagerly Looked Upon by Boh Colored and White Farmers ONE CROP SYSTEM MUST FAIL Farmers Urged to Plant Diversified Crops and Get the Most Out of the Land—Many Influential Men Present—Fair Treatment for All Urged—Better Outlook for Education Seen—Marketing Association Should Be Formed (By Wm. Anthony Aery) Tuskegee, Ala., Feb. 1.—Farmers of the South, both white and colored, are beginning to throw off the pull of depression and despair, which fell upon them so heavily when there came the slump in prices for cotton and farm products. They and their families are still greatly discouraged. They are in need of help—moral support as well as extension of credits. They are looking to their leaders for positive suggestions. Moton said: "Our whole section is now straining every effort to stem the present depression and prevent a great financial collapse. "It is interesting now to recall that one year ago the Tuskegee Negro Conference sent out the warning that prices would fall. I urged the farmers not to be cured back to the one-crayon system of farming with the idea that cotton would stay at forty cents indefinitely. "From it is very beginning the Tuskegee Negro Conference has urged upon farmers the importance of diversification and--the rotation of crops. It has been said, over and over at least, no farmer would be permanently successful who did not, besides whatever, cotton he raised also raise on his own land all the foodstuffs necessary for his family and his stock. Those farmers who have taken this advice can testify that they do not have to worry very much with the new prevailing slump in the price of cotton. "As a matter of fact the general situation is not as bad as it might be. Most farmers may seem to be facing hard times, and some of them really are. A great many of them are and cannot get it; but most of the farmers are even foodstuffs on hand that prevent them from really suffering. Some few wise farmers took advantage of the new vailing high prices during the past two or three years and saved their money. These are much better off in consequence.

A telegram was sent to Senator Swanson requesting that the ceding back to the Commonwealth of Truxtun be incorporated in the bill, which, it is hoped, can be passed this session of Congress as a rider on some appropriation bill. By Wm. Anthony Aery) Tuskegee, Ala., Feb. 1—Farmers of the South, both white and colored, are beginning to throw off the pull of depression and despair, which fell upon them so heavily when there came the slump in prices for cotton and farm products. They and their families are still greatly discouraged. They are pleased of help—moral support as well as financial credits. They are looking to their leaders for positive suggestions. The recent "Farmers' Day" program of the thirtieth annual Tuskegee Negro Conference, presided over by Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute and president of the National Negro Business League, was devoted in part to demonstrations which showed effectively the important role that farmers are at the farmer's command far working out their own salvation within a reasonable time—on the land and with their present neighbors and immediate resources. The Tuskegee program for meeting "Farm Needs of the South's Present-day Rural Life" also included stories of struggle and success, which were presented by Negro farmers who had heeded the call of Booker T. Washington's gospel of land and improvement. "ONE CRP SYSTEM_MUST_FAIL." Dr. Moton, Dr. Washington's program of rural life improvement, spoke with force and encouragement on "How to Meet the Present National Emergency." Dr. At the directors' meeting Tuesday night, the minimum capital of the Union Commercial Bank, of $50,000, was fully subscribed in less than thirty minutes. The Hon. W. A.

NORMAL MANY GRADUATE AT VA. NORMAL Petersburg, Va., Jan. 31.—The midwinter commencement at the Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute was an event of considerable interest. The class-day exercises were held Thursday evening, January 27th. It was followed by a reminiscence, and prophecy. The numbers were interesting and enjoyable. On Friday evening, the commencement exercises were held. The music was furnished by the choral society, under the direction of Miss Anna L. Lindsay, and by the orchestra, under the direction of Mr. B. F. Stevens. Miss Julia Hudson sang a solo "To the Evening Star." R. Marshall Tyler was valedictorian of the High School class, and delivered an oration on "Liberty, Our Abiding Heritage."

He took as his subject, "The Alluring Ideal." His address was inspiring and it was just such an address as would appeal to young men and women who are lifelong members of school for the school of life, eager to help do the world's work. The diplomas were presented by President John M. Gandy, who made a strong appeal to the graduates, urging them to carry with them the theme of the school: "The age of the spirit of service." He pointed out to them their wonderful powers and opportunities for doing good in the communities to which they are going. The graduates are: High School - Susie M.

(Continued from Page 1) Should Congress take action ceding SECOND CALVARY RAISED $27,425.87 Adds 622 New Members in 1920. New Financial Plan for this Year Dr. J. E. East Here (By J, A, G, LuValle) Second Calvary Baptist church is in the forefront as one of the leading churches of Norfolk, in finance raising and securing new members. While the goal of $10,000.00 was not obtained financially, that set for new members, 600; was passed by 22; there were 1,022 members added to that church within the calendar of 1920. This is the largest of new members that has been received by this church in its history. Rev. C. P. Madison, the pastor, while well pleased with the record for the past year, has set his goal at 1,000 members for 1921, with an equal amount of school. There are ten auxiliary organizations with Second Calvary, and they were factors in both raising the money and securing new additions to the church. The records show the receipts as follows: For the church, $22,282.75; for Sunday school, $784.57; for the filling officers, $791.45; for the Queen's Circle, $793.10; by the Men's Bible Class, $200.00; by the Incidental Committee, $175.92; by the Missionaries, $127.29; by the B. Y. P. U., $15.10; by the Bee Hive, $107.31; and by the 74.00 making the total of $27,425.87. The expenditures in all departments amounted to $26,771.81, leaving a balance in treasury of $751.06. One feature about this report that stands out very prominently, and that is the amount for benevolence, $2,027, nearly 10 per cent of the total amount received. A church that is strong on supporting its benevolent efforts is the Christian Institute, succeeding just as the Christian Institute in giving the title, stands out for its role to the cause of Christianity. Second Calvary is noted for its spirituality, in 1919, there were 333 new members added to the church, in 1927 there were 622 new members received. You do not find people joining a dead church. To go to Second Calvary about five years ago, Rev. Madison found about 125 members, and a few deliplated shack of a building in church. In June, 1918, he began a new church building, and in April, 1919, they held their first service in the present beautiful and spacious office. This church cost $72,841.42, and the debt has been reduced in two years to less than $20,000. They now have a membership of 1,538. The East, who has spent the past eleven years as a missionary, was pressed to day night and delivered a thrilling address on conditions in Africa as he found them and as they are today. He has built up a school and has eleven stations in his district of about 100,000 inhabitants. He is in this country on a vacation and in the meantime trying to raise enough money to purchase a tract of land for a missionary need to build a replica of Tuskegee Africa. There is no mushy stuff about Dr. Berry. He is of the far-sighted economist and business type, and has succeeded wonderfully in his efforts in Africa. KU KLUX SNEERED Chapel Hill.—The first attempt of the Ku Klux Klan to establish a chapter at Chapel Hill this week met with a lukewarm reception and members of the organization from Durham who came over with an organizer said to make no further attempt to establish a place unless citizens of Chapel Hill took the initiative and showed more interest. Some 30 persons, slightly less than half of whom were university students who had been invited to come, attended a meeting in the Chapel Hill high school, called by Durham member the Klan. An organizer of the Klan Mr. Mitchell enjoined the purposes of the organization, which he said were to assist the regular forces for law and order. He cited instances of the work of the Klan, showed a good deal of Klan literature, and brought out the robe and helmet of the order. When he asked for opinions from the audience, several persons spoke favorably and several others said no need for such an organization, with the general result that the meeting showed little tendency toward definite action. The town of Truxtum back to the State of Virginia it would solve the issue of having a town within a town, it is pointed out, for Truxtum lies entirely within the corporate limits of the city of Portsmouth. The settlement has not met with the difficulties that Cruddek has, although its statics is exactly the same, it is said. In Truxtum, municipal affairs are administered by a city manager, who also is responsible for the operation of the public utilities patterned after those of Cruddek. There has been no dissatisfaction expressed by the people of Truxtun express the status as citizens of a town within which as few people, it is pointed out, few are familiar with the fact that the citizens of Truxtun have met and overcome the same obstacles that confronted the people of Cradock.

Race's Population of Philadelphia Increases Washington, Jan. 27.—The Negro population of Philadelphia now totals 134,098, or an increase of 38.8 percent in the past ten years as against an increase in the white population of only 15.4 per cent, according to a newspaper made public today by the census bureau. In 1823,779 the white population in Philadelphia number 1,688,313, the Negroes 134,198, and Chinese, Japanese, Indians, 1,338. The latest census figures for Philadelphia also reveal that women outnumber men as they did in 1910. Accuse Colored Barber of Race Discrimination Springfield, Mass., Jun. 29—Charges of race discrimination by Negroes against another were made here with the filing of four suits for $400 each against John Hall, proprietor of a barber shop. The plaintiffs alleged that Hall declined to serve them for the reason that he might injure his white trade. EXTRACT MILK, IN CHEESE, FACE P ALL FROM THE Washington, D. C., Jun. 31.—Prof. Carver, the peanut wizard, of Tuskegee Institute, has startled the world. Prof. Carver is a man of considerable training and experience. He literally with the by-products of the "goober," opened the congressmen conducting the inquiry. Starting off with the proposition that the peanut and the sweet potato constitute together "a perfectly balanced ration" for humanity, and that if all the other vegetable foodstuffs were destroyed all the nutrient in them could be supplied with these two products of the soil, the Tuskegee specialist proceeded to assemble the committee and the spectators by creating peanut derivatives which they had never drenned of. For instance: Carver—"A short time ago we found how to extract milk from peanuts. It is absolutely impossible to tell from cow's milk in looks; the cream rises on it the same as on cow's milk; and, in fact, it has much the same composition. This specimen is made especially for ice-cream making, since it loses the delicious ice cream that it ever enter." Congressman Carew—"How does it go in a punch?" Carew—"Do these violate the Volstand Law?" Carver—"No sir . . . I heard someone ask what kind of a box this is. It is a Pandora's box, I guess; not buttermilk. Here is a bottle of buttermilk; very rich in fats, and very delightful." Congressman Hawley—"Is that made from the peanut?" Carver—Made from the peanut milk; yes, sir. And here is another very attractive product of the peanut—an instant coffee. And this is a bottle of Worcestershire sauce from peanut." Chairman Fordney here called for order in the committee-room. Committeemen and spectators were all amused as well as interested. They wondered what was coming next. It is safe to say that the committee will never think of the peanut hereafter as a small proposition. Carver (proceeding)—"Now, the peanut milk has about the same amount of buttermilk that has, and the curds can be taken out and made into the various fancy cheeses such as the Neufchatel and Edam. Now, this is a pomade—a face cream, just as soft and just as the famous almond cream, and it has the quality of vanishing as soon as it is put on. Then we have here a bottle (Continued on page 8) Guide Quality PRINTING Brings Results PRICE FIVE CENTS SENATE SEAT IS OBJECT OF RICH COLORED FRENCHMAN Emmigrated From Gaudalupe in 1913 With Only 50 Frances Made Wise Investment Receive Contracts from the French Government to Supply Rum to Soldiers Paris, France, Feb. 1—What seems more like a dime novel or a movie thrill is the interesting story of how Aodat de Dubrouilhe, a native of Gaudalupe, who came to France and started with nothing, and is now one of the richest men in France. Rum, Rum Rum, is the story of his success. In a country where the color of a man's skin does not count, this sturdy fellow with a dark skin was quick to grasp the opportunity at the right time. Landing in Marsseills in 1913 with fifty frances in his pocket Dubrouilhe immediately began working as a long-shorenbeg. When the war began, he invested his savings in a small stock of rum a few weeks before the price of that liquor shot up. Selling out his first stock he bought more, moved to Paris, and within three years became the largest dealer in rum in France. In 1917 he signed an enormous contract whereby he supplied practically all the rum served to the soldiers in the trenches and used in the hospitals. During the grip epidemic of 1918, he is said to have made $5,000,000 profits. Buying himself a country mansion near Paris he married a French woman, and was made mayor of his community in token of large benevolence. In November, 1920, he was prosecuted by the Government for falsely declaring his excess war profits under the new tax law. The case is still pending. Meanwhile he has announced himself candidate for the exclusive French Senate and the district of Gaudalque, in opposition to Henry Berenger, the famous writer, who is chairman of the Senate Commission on Foreign Affairs. His supporters allege his election is almost certain, since a large proportion of the voters in Gaudalque pro-franchised blacks. If this happens he will be the first Negro to take a seat in any European Government. INSTANT COFFEE, POMADE AND INK THE LOWLY PEANUT Race Population in Lynchburg Decrease Washington, Jan. 27.

C., Feb. 3—Mrs. Harding, wife of President-elect Harding, was recently interviewed by a representative of The Colored Syndicate Press Bureau. She was extremely busy packing and preparing to move from her Wyoming avenue home, but was willing to spare the time to greet a greeting of cheer to the colored people she said: "I thank the colored press for the support which they gave to Senator Harding." When introduced to Mrs. M. L. Gray, president of the Negro Women's National Republican League, she extended her hand and with a smile that one could see came to her heart, stated: "The wonderful support he gave to Senator Harding by the colored great Nation shall ever be green in my memory, and I know Senator Harding will give to the colored citizens of our Nation a square deal. Large Crowd Is Exected to Hear Judge Terrell Judge Terrell is an orator of namington, D. C., will speak at The Attucks Theatre, Sunday afternoon, under the auspices of the graduates and friends of Hampton Institute. Judge Terrell is an orator of National Iame, and his message will prove interesting to all who hear him. The Armstrong League is planning a very strong program; a quartette from Hampton Institute will render a few numbers. A large crowd is expected, as Judge Terrell has a tremendous following in this section. FEBRUARY 5. 1921 (© 1920, Western Newspaper Union) "Now, my love, shine!" spoke Iona Tyrell's mother, proudly. "I fear you overestimate my power to dazzle, mamma dear," said Iona, but her eyes sparkled and she could not conceal the emotion of the most misplaced moment in her young life. Oona had been much of a chameleon in the world unless being the bright, cheerful life of a Haiti social set in a dull, remote village were for something. Her parents were poor, her environment humble; for the first time in her life she now stood arrayed in a garb that might have graced a duchess, and in the suitcase by her side was a full complement of finery to the feminine heart most dear. Her hat was exquisitely dainty and becoming; she had a certain dark beauty that defied powder or rouse and there was grace and delicacy about her figure that would make most people look twice at her. John Barley, her mother's brother, had chanced to make his first visit in years to the Tyrrell home. He good well in the city; he had money. His two daughters had married and the whim seized him to do something for his sister's only child. It had suddenly occurred to him, realizing the vast contrast between his own sumptuous home and the Tyrrell humble cottage, that he had hardly done his duty by his hard working sister. Then comprehending that nothing would please her more than to have fona see the world and the world see her, invited fona to his home on a long visit and had insisted on providing her with all that would make her presentable. "She has too much in her as to be beauty and character to waste her life in dull, hundredm Winwood," declared Barley. "Give her a new insight into the world that means something, sister. She shall have the best in life while she is with me." So mother and daughter parted and the sunnipous automobile flashed down the winding road, and watching it to the last Mrs. Tyrell felt as if it was some devering monster that had bereft her of her host beloved child. Mr. Burdley noteworthy that all along the road the first mile of progress Iona kept peering to her right, and as they approached an old-fashioned place she took her handkerchief and suddenly waved it at a young fellow driving some cattle into a field. "Who was that, lion?" inquired her uncle. "Just an old, true friend. I told him yesterday I was going away. I suppose I was foolish, but I cried like a baby. See, uncle, he gave me this pretty ring as a keepsake," and Iona extended a dainty finger bearing a snowed gold cirelet. "You want to forget it and him too, Iona," spoke her uncle, almost sourly. "Village swains scoured count in city ways. As to the ring, don't wear it. I have a diamond cirelet awaiting you when we get home." Iona blushed and drew the ring from her finger, but only to later place it on her neck chain out of sight, but not of mind. It reposed nearer to her heart, that was all. She kept silence as to Wayne Tresham, but only because her mother and warned her not to spoil her visit (to the city by crossing the imperious will of her uncle. "I shall write, just as I promised," whispered Ion to herself. "I shall not forget Wayne, no matter what comes. He is good, true and honest. And he had spoken of coming to see me in the city. What will make say if he does?" The city proved an alluring magnet for Ionn. She was dazzled; she enjoyed all its variety and excitement; she was made a great deal of life and went like a dream. Secretly she wrote to Wayne, but after her second letter received word from him that he was going to leave home to take a new position, would be traveling a good deal, and would send her his permanent address as soon as he was settled. But a year passed by. Mrs. Tyrell died, Iona was adopted by Mr. Barclay and only occasionally did she hear from Wayne. They were not engaged, and she could scourely expect more than the few formal letters he wrote. There came an episode in her life where Mr. Barclay urged a marriage between Iona and a young man he had always liked. The latter turned out badly; the engagement was 'broken' and Mr. Barclay never again attempted to direct Iona in regard to her love affairs. Dear, true soul! She had none except so far as Wayne Tresham was concerned, and she never faltered in her trustful, loyal devotion for him. And then came the reward of the waiting years. Mr. Barclay had large western interests and one day he introduced Iona to his new manager. He was Wayne Tresham. Mr. Barclay had never known that he was the old-time lover of Iona. It was only after the wrangle that Iona told him all about it. Wayne had made a name and a fortune, and Mr. Barclay could present no objection to the mannerly, intelligent young man who had won his own confidence and esteem. So the romance of the life of Iona Tyrell had worked out as fate intended and destined, and she was radiantly happy in shining only in all her locality for the one man in the world who held all her trustfulness and affection.

Sesby Drug Co., 10 Greene St., New York "A NATION SAVED BY AMERICA," SAYS CLEVELAND H. DODGE "A NATION SAVED BY AMERICA," SAYS CLEVELAND H. DODGE New York Business Man Describes Vast Armenian Work of Near East Relief. Cleveland H. Dodge, New York banker and business man, director of the National City Bank, and treasurer of the Russell Sage Foundation and of the Near East Relief, declares that "a nation has been saved by American philanthropy, and the generosity of the American people through the Near East Relief, in its work for the Armenians. "The lowest official estimate indicates that one million persons are living today who would not be alive had it not been for this relief." Mr. Dodge continued, "I have an autograph letter from Dr. H. Oshmanian, president of the Armenian Republic, in which he writes: 'America literally saved us from starvation.'" "Wholly aside from adults who have been saved from starvation, we today CLEVELAND H. DODGE have in orphanages and elsewhere under our care 110,000 homeless, fatherless or motherless children who are absolutely dependent upon us. This is exclusive of 63 hospitals with 6,552 beds, 128 clinics, rescue homes for girls and unnumbered thousands of refugees who are being helped through our industrial relief and in other ways. "The Near East Relief has during the last four or five years commissioned and sent to the Near East more than 1,000 American relief workers, of them working in the dall, all of them working in the military sacrifice—the standard of salary being per month and maintenance—and many of them facing great personal danger and hardship in the performance of their life-saving service. A score of them have died from typhus or other diseases more or less related to their faithfulness in the performance of relief service. "Nor is that all. We have raised and disbursed during war times and in a war-torn area, in large measure under enemy control, more than $41,000,000 in cash, and, including fluff, Red Cross and other supplies administered by our agents, a total of cash and supplies in excess of $500,000,000. The official reports show that on June 30, 1920, we had in orphanages 54,000 children, and that we are partially supporting outside of the orphanages 50,630 children, making a total of 119,000 boys and girls now under the care of the Near East Relief." Mr. Dodge considers the work of the Near East Relief of the most stupendous undertakings of disinterested philanthropy the world has ever seen. "In countries whose population totals more than 30,000,000 souls, American idealism exemplified by the work of the Near East Relief constitutes today a torch of enlightenment and an influence for peace throughout the whole Near East," he maintains. "Our American ideal of liberty, industry and helpfulness has brought us as a people happiness, prosperity and fulfillment. Out of the fullness of this heritage we are furnishing a faithful and undaunted Christ; in people the brotherly aid which will enable them to reach the same fulfillment that God has given us. "It is an achievement of which every American may well be proud." A Ring at YOUR Door. U.S. permission of Life.

TITUS TOWN, VA The two past Sundays have been ideal days for church goers, and all services at Mt. Pleasant have been well attended. The Norfolk county and Tanners Creek Sunday schools hold its quarterly meeting with Mt. Pleasant S. S. on last Sunday. A most excellent sermon was preached by the Rev. Lomax, pastor of Mt. Giland Baptist church, Oakwood. An interesting program was rendered and the offering was very good. At night the Senior Missionary Circle had charge and a good program was rendered. On the fourth Sunday, funeral service was held over the remains of Mr. Elijah Washington of New York, who came home to spend the holidays with his parents, Rev. and Mrs. E. Washington, of Ballingbrook, and died on January 21st. The pastor delivered an impressive sermon. Interment was made in old Mt. Pleasant cemetery. The B. Y. P. U. is making rapid strides to success and is filled with inspiration for those who attend. On Tuesday afternoon, the funeral of Mrs. Violet Holmes Sweeney was held at Mt. Pleasant.

Trainmen's Fight Continues (By The Associated Negro Press) Chicago, Feb. 5—The controversy on the adjustment of contracts and salaries before the U. S. Railway Labor Board is still in progress, and is creating unusual interest. J. H. Elland, Grand President of the Colored Association of Railway Employees, with headquarters in Memphis, Team, has been a constant attendant at the sessions, and has prepared a brief on the colored trainmen's organization side which will be presented before the body. Mr. Elland's organization has a membership of more than 4,000, having been organized less than four years ago, with a membership of about 200 trainmen. According to the contentions of the C. A. R. E., the Brotherhood of Trainmen, white, has not only effected contracts and agreements that are giving them undue advantage, but they are obviously discriminatory, and should not be tolerated longer. According to the present arrangement, colored trainmen in the South where the majority are employed, are diminishing in number constantly, and because of present seniority rules, those who are employed find it almost impossible to advance. It is maintained that the only organization of railway employees represented in the contract with the government were organizations composed exclusively of whites, in which colored men could not become members. The colored association is contending for an agreement, national in scope, affecting and protecting all employees in the same department of service without regard to race or color, so far as working conditions are concerned. Convocation at Howard to Tackle Grave Problems Washington, D. C., Feb. 5.—The fourth annual conventation of the Howard University School of Religion to be held February 22, 23, 24, 1921, will devote itself to the discussion of outstanding problems. The conventation will seek to answer the questions: "Can the White and Black and Yellow and Red and Brown Races Live as Brothers in a Common World? Are Social Classes and Castes Permanent Lines of Cleavage Between Men?" The convocation seeks to aid and encourage those upon whom falls the great task of promoting peace and good will among all men. The subjects for discussion during the three days' session will be: On Tuesday, February 22nd, "The Social and Economic Aspects of Brotherhood"; on Wednesday, February 23rd, "The International Aspects of Brotherhood"; on Thursday, February 24th, "The Interracial and Interdenominational Aspects of Brotherhood." Among those who will speak at the convocation are, Rev Frederick Lynch, D. D., editor of Christian Work and secretary of the Church Peace Union, New York City; Rev William N. DeBerry, D. D., assistant Moderator of the National Council of Congregational Churches, Springfield, Mass.; Hon. Wayne B. Wheeler, LL. D., Counsel for the Anti-Saloon League, Washington, D. C.; Bishop Charles S. Smith, D. D., Detroit, Mich.; Col. Chaplain John T. Axton, head chaplain of the U. S. Army, Washington, D. C.; Dr. James H. Dillard, Charlottesville, Va.; the Reverends M. W. D. Norman, D. D., James D. Buhr, D. D., and W. O. Carrington, D. D., Washington, D. C.; Mr. Arthur D. Call, secretary of the American Peace Society, Washington, D. C.; Hon. Thomas Sterling, United States Senator from South Dakota; Miss Mabel T. Boardman, Commissioner of the District of Columbia, and President J. Stanley Durkee, D. D. Howard University. The convocation sermon will be preached by one of the eminent Baptist ministers of the country, Rev William P. Hayes, D. D., of New York City. Richmond, Va.-The Rev. Russell Bowie, D. D., rector of St. Paul's church, Richmond, Va., where Gen. Lee used to worship, recently appealed to his congregation to deal with race relations in that great leader's spirit rather than by the permissible methods of the revived Ku Klux Klan, against which, the rector said, a Christian community should set its face like a flint. Dr. Bowie referred to the release of savage instincts as an aftermath of the great war, and the increased need for patience and justice between the races. He declared the public appeal of the Klan was an appeal to mob passion and the spirit of lynch law. If in reconstruction days the order had had "the relative justification of a terrible emergency" at the present time it was "an insult to the forces of orderly government." "Race, integrity must be assured, not for one race, but for both; but equally necessary is a determination to secure for the Negro justice, sympathy, and co-operation in the attainment of his legitimate desires for betterment, which no violence, and no secret organization can be allowed to endanger. The great Lee, the speaker said, "believed that the needs of the South could only be met so far as men with patience, with self control, and with the power of Christian charity set themselves to build the new civilization. On no lesser foundation can the civilization of today rest. We want no violence. We want no secrecy. With truth and candor, and with the chivalry that makes the strong race responsible for wise, unselfish helpfulness toward the weaker one, must we build if what we build today be worthy to endure." It will be recalled that when this organization, which has been so arraigned as subversive of American ideals, first sought, a few years ago, to gain a foothold in Tennessee, one of the Chattanooga papers outspokenly opposed its methods and principles, and unified law-abiding public sentiment against it in that city. The Southern press and the Southern pulpit can together solidify the overwhelming majority of Southern people against this "insult to the forces of orderly government," and prove beyond question that the spirit of Lee is still honored in the land he loved so much. Chattanooga, Teen.—One of the best institutions in the South for the care of dependent, neglected and delinquent children is the industrial school owned by Chattanooga and Hamilton county. The farm, bought some years ago, has buildings for white boys and white girls. Last summer a $25,000 building for colored boys was dedicated, when Governor Roberts and a colored minister spoke to a large audience of both races. A building for colored girls is to be erected in the near future, the trustees being committed to a policy of conservation of the human resources of the county regardless of race. The county bears the main expense of the institution, but the city contributes $10,000 a year to its support. This policy of conservation and development is in line with that of the State, which has one of the oldest and best departments of public charities in the South. Through this department, unsure aid is given to the welfare of unfortunate colored children; and it is planned to develop this branch of the work as rapidly as is practicable. A fine orphanage for colored children was recently opened in Knoxville, and another is projected at Memphis, to serve the needs of the western part of the State. Tennessee is also in the front rank in its efforts to improve the country schools for colored children, and to develop a community life among country Negroes in which they may find security and opportunity in building up prosperity for themselves and for the State of which they are a part. HONOR OUR HEROES The Lott Carey Centennial should have been observed, Sunday, January 21st, for more than one reason, not the least of these being the giving of fitting recognition to a hero who gave himself unselfishly to the service of his fellows; a pioneer in the cause of missions, inspired by love and a longing to reach the unfortunate hordes of his brethren over the sea, with the desire to carry out God's command. Now that the race as a whole is waking up to a sense of self-consciousness, of racial pride, the name of Lott Carey will be treasured more and more as years go by. We call on pastors and people alike to share in this observance. If the real anniversary, January 23rd, was not kept, there is yet time; use the regular Missionary Sunday. A united consecrated effort on the part of everybody to do something at this time will be of untold good, not only in the immediate relief to our suffering missionaries over in Africa, whose needs are so great and where we have pledged to support, but it will make easy the task confronting us; that of sending Dr. and Mrs. Ezell to Africa February 26th, at a cost of seven hundred (8700) dollars and of finding the same amount of traveling expenses of Rev. and Mrs. Horton, who are returning to America on furlough, after five years' splendid service; besides we must send about fifteen $1,500) hundred dollars to Dr. Amiger, superintendent of Missions, West Const, for the need in the Bible Training School and Missionaries' Home. Brethren, let us put our shoulders to the wheel and make this anniversary a red-letter event in the record of Baptist history. We can do it if we will urge one to do something, no matter how small the offering. "For the work of the Lord must be done by few, And He asks that a part be done by you." Southern Baptists Aid Negro Church Atlanta, Ga.—The Baptist Centenary Fund will give generous aid to colored Baptists. Over $20,000 a year for five years will be spent in financing institutes and Bible schools for colored ministers which will be taught by picked men of the white church; but the main appropriations, following the usual policy of this denomination, will aid work done by the Negroes themselves. Twelve thousand a year for five years is set aside for colored missionaries in the home field; and over $400,000 will be given to approved schools owned and operated by colored Baptists. In addition to this, one of the best men in the white church, Dr. O. L. Hailey, of Texas, has been made secretary of the Commission on Negro theological education. A fund of at least $200,000 is to be raised for a seminary which the white church will present to the colored communion. One feature of this movement is the "good-fellowship meetings" so successfully held in a number of cities through the South. At these meetings, which are largely attended by both races, white and black discuss the application of Christian principles to daily living which alone can insure permanent and peaceful racial C. B.

Babseription Rates : at hee ce ease Bb Monten nance eenenn sss 8.25 pared ue porendaiaee wate at Ge eu efice at Nortel, Virginia SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 1921 .The Government of France has asked: the: Government of the United Stites to remove the derelict Ameri- ait soldias in Paris and elsewhert im’ France “who have made a home ‘with the local criminal class.” Secre- tary Baker has sent a bill to Congress ‘which will take care of the expense of fetching home not only the honorably discharged soldiers and their families now in Europe, but those who are Bow regarded os criminals. At the close of the war it was esli- mated that there were some 5,000 ex- service men in Europe, mostly in France. It is estimated now that there are some 4,000 there. There wast not be any Afro-American ex- service men among these army dere- liets, as the dispatch says nothing about there being any, and us, if there were any such, they would cer- tainly have been gibbitted in the dis. patch. Certainly the law should be speedily enacted providing for the ex- pense of bringing the ex-service dere- licts home, and the sooner they are brought home the better for the good name and reputation of the Nation, A cemarkable thing happened at Memphis, Tennessee, last week. A fas tank exploded in a section of the eity largely inhabited by Afro-Ameri- cans, some ten of whom were blown to pieces, and some twenty of Whose homes were destroyed. The whole city felt the shock of the explosion. Relief was given the sufferers as Promptly as it was possible to give it by all xorts of public and private agencies. In the hour of calamity the whole city responded to the demand to syrapathize with and help the victims. : A popular subscription was opened fax-the sufforers by the Solvent Suv- ings Bank and Trust Company and tho race,'as well as the white citizens, sabscribed promptly and liberally and the three daily newspapers made an- Bouncements of the names of the sub- scribera. We wera much aurprised to find in one daily newspaper of Mem- phis that the local branch of the Kut Klux Klan had subscribed $100. What doen Imperial Wizard of the Klun, Rev. Simmons, think of that? As for us, we are thinking. it should be made a matter of gun- eral information that the State Com. missioner of Education of New York, Dr. John H. Finley, is strongly advo- eating the teaching of good manners in the schools. On the face of it many people may think that this is carry- ing the matter too far. As n mutter of fact, it is one of the most impor- tant and necessary innovations in the Public schools that coukl be intro- anced. The Nationul standard of manners,, like the National standard ‘af morals, is very much run down at the heels and needs bracing badly and suddenly. ,Major Generat John F. O'Ryan, whom Dr. Bailey has asked to take charge of tho campaign for better manners, says that “if good manners and politeness are to characterize our people the effort to that end must hegin in childhood and the instruction given in the home must be supple- mented by training and discipline in the: schools.” “Phe movement has the @adorsement of the highest eduea- ‘onal dignitaries of New York State, dad the furtherance of the movement ih Wound to boar good and lasting re- sults, 1 Phe movement should spread to all of the States of the Nation. We could adopt it to good advantage in the Schools of Norfolk and Tidewater generally, and we hope our tenchers will sea the advantage of doing so. Lestures to the pupils from time to time by distinguished citizens on pub- We and private manners, and what constitute good and bad manners, ‘would be popular aa well as inform- ing. " LYNCHINGS INCREASE ‘A lynching epidemic seems to have feken' hold of the country. If the average for the year equala the aver- “ge for Yanuary more than e hundred “parents Grill have. been: put to death at the hands of mobs by the end of 1921, A member 6f the North Carolina gencral assembly which is now in ses- sion has introduced a bill which if enacted into Inw will go far townrds preventing lynchings. ‘The bill pro“ vides an amendment to the law “which will not require the presence of the defendant in the court roont when motion for removal to anothes county is made.” Prisoners are of- ten seized by mobs when being taken to court rooms for preliminary benr- ings or for the purpose of allowing their counsel to motion for x rmeoyal of the ease to another county. If the proposed measure went further and required atf suspects who are in dan- ger of being lynched to be earried im- mediately to the State prison or out of the proximity of posible mob vio- lence for safe keeping when first taken into custody it would be still ‘more effective as a preventive. If ‘that had happened when the colored men involved in the recent trouble at ‘Norlina, N. C., were first apprehended there would have been ne tynchini. Experience has taught that almost invariably when there is a clash of ‘any sort between white and col sred perians, where a white person his been killed or injured, or even threat. ened with death or injury, there is danger of a lynching. To put the offending or suspected Nexroes in the town lock-up or county jail in the same locality in whieh the trouble ov curred ix to invite and facilitate a Iynching. This has been proven with: in recent months at one place in Vir- jsinia and several places in North ‘Carolina, ‘The States have the reme: dies for lynching in the machinery of their own laws and legislatures if ‘they will apply them. MAKING EDUGATION PAY | If there was anything lacking to support the continuons appeal of col: ored schools for adequate fonds with [which to extend their usefulness ft ea supplied by Prof. George W. Car- Iver, of Tuskegee Institute, when he [appeared before the ways and means committee of Conigress a few days ayo rina the hearings on the proposed new tariff measure. Prof. Carver's demonstrated knowledge of scientific agriculture and food chemistry caused the chairman of the committee to’ re- mark when he was through giving his testimony that he had “rendered the committee a great service,” and jin addition he received the compli- ments of the entire committee and ‘the applause of the spectators. Officinls of the United Peanut As- sociation of America were before the ways and menns committee in an ef- fort to secure tariff protection. for the Amevican-grown ‘peanut, which has suffered considerably during the past few years from competition of the peanut imported frum the Orient. Prof. Carver, who has made a special study at Tuskegee of the possibitities of the peanut and the sweet potato, wax summoned before the committee at the suggestion “of Congressman Holland, of the second district of Vir- ginig to help establish in the minds of the congressmen the importance of the peanut as an American industry and the necessity of giving it nde- quate tariff protection. In a few minvtes Prof. Carver had shown the congressmen how more than 2 hundred food and other useful products had been mude by himself from the peanut in tho research la-| boratory at Tuskegco Institute, and exhibited over thirty samples of the various products, including milk, fruit juices, buttermilk, instant cof- fee, Worcestershire sauce, cheeses, mock meat products, Caco creams, various confections and breakfast foods, dyes und wood stains. ¥t is reasonable to suppose that the congressmen, the officials of the Unit- ed Peanut Associxtions of ‘America and other spectators. present at the hearings of the ways and means com- mittee had revised tholt opinions as to the value of un educated Nogro af- ter hearing Prof. Carver relate the results of his researches with the peanut and the sweet potuto. This colored man proved to the antistnc- tion of his hearers that in the peanut and the sweet potato the American people have a perfectly balanced diet, and further ho has proved to the peanut growers that there aro un- jimited possibilities for utility and wealth in these products. By ronson of Prof. Carver's discoveries the peu- nut at once takes a place nhead of such agricultural products as cotton, tobacco and corn, and the potato be- comes as important as wheat, for it is capable of more practical uses than wheat and just aa valuable as a food eee tlie UR |, Prol Carver tues: nttended: sorts 6¢ ‘the best schools in Ameriea, the last of which was the Argieultural Col- loge of Town.

The white infant mortality rate showed that one died in every twenty-one born. The infant mor- tality figures are tabulated from the iietbs reported, and while all deaths ave repotted many births are not. Ht is also true that x much Yarzer ratio of white births than colored are reperled and if all the colored babies that are horn were reported the comparatives death ‘rate for in- [their disadvantage. | Rut waiving further discussion of the facts as they exist it is admitted that the whole death rate for both races is too large, and that the Negro death rate is excessively high. Mow to bring about more satisfactory health conditions is the problem to be solved. . ‘The chief causes of deaths among colored people, according to Dr. Schenck's report, were pneumonia, ‘tuberculosis und organic heart dis- ‘eases, ranking in fatality in the order named. Of the colored denths 149 resulted from pneumonia, 100 from tuberculosis and 77 from organie heart diseases. IL is plain, therefore, that bud housing. poor hygiene, in- sufficient and improper food and clothing and lack of knowledge are the main contributing causes of the high Nexro death rate. The remedy, for these causes lie primarily in im- proving the housing situation and general living conditions combined with the slow, but sure processes of eduention. ‘There is much that our people ean do to improve their living conditions, | but fundamentally that is a munici-| pal problem. Ignorance of the laws of hygicne, poverty, and the necessity for all adult members of the fainily being away from home at work from ten to fourteen hours each day all contribute to discourage better home- making among a large element of the colored population, The scarcity of property uvailuble for Negroes me an exeessive price upon it and makes home buying difficult. The she tion of the city to withhold permanent street improvements from sections populated exclusively by Negroes makes it diffieult to manitain sani- tary conditions, There rests upon the city: govern- ment a responsibility for the health of all its citizens which it cannot es- cape. In speaking of its own city's colored population the Richmond (Va.) Times-Dispatch said in a te- cent issue: “With a population alniost one- third colored, it may be doubted if Richmond has done or is doing what it should for the Negroes. Hundreds of families occupy modern houses and are comfort. | ably and healthfully situated, but their good: fortune has come | about through their own industry and thrift. “Other hundreds, nay ’ thousands, live in Jackson ward and other colored residential dis- tricts in delapidated houses, where even the most ordinary: rules of ‘sanitation uro not. ob- served, aud in many cases cannot be because of the city’s neglect! | By these things the city's health is endangered, and the quicker - the city remedies auch conditions tho better it will be for the peo- ple generally. ‘To the Negroes | thamasionn i te « mattcan ft i. NORFOLK: JOURNAL AND GUIDE a ne of) they remain a happy, contented | m ‘The same conditions that have been s0 frankly and so fairly pointed out by the Richmond paper exist in more or Tess the same degree in Norfolk and in practically all cities with large Negro populations. While much has been done under Norfolk's Present city Government to make living conditions better for its colored Population, the worst conditions have not been reach- ed. The city government, however, is showing a commendable disposition to attack the problem by gradual and consistent. stages, and present indica. tions are that the next ten years will show wonderful improvement. Dr. Schenck has proved himself to be one of the most elficient and most suevessful health officers in the coun- try, and health conditions generally have greatly improved in Norfolk un. der his administration. It is apparent however, that the greater improve. ment is shown in the health conditions of the white population, ‘There is much more that his department cur do to improve the situation among col. ored people, und there are reasons t [Velieve, frum recent manifestations o interest upon hig part, that our health commissioner desiies and intends te ishow an improvement in the healt) [conditions of Norfolk's colored popu: j lation at the end of the present year. | BENEFITTED BY READING JOURNAL AND GUIDE | Editor Journal and Guide |_Sir:—Find enclosed check for $2.00 ;with which to continue my ‘subserip- tion, [ feel that I have been much encouraged and benefitted by the very high and important stand you take for | the race, editorially, and the informa. ‘tive news matter. . j Yours truly, i .

T. LATTIMORE, D.D.S. Hampton, Va, | By Charles M. Tucker Business prodeuce dictates that the stability of the success of any private business, enterprise, or corporation can only be in proportion to the abil. ity of thos ein whos chands such enterprises are entrusted. That Ne- gro business men hay erealized this is attested to by the many success- ful adventures they are at present en- gaged, Life has not been very long in any enterprise or businses whose executive heads or proprietors were men blind 'to the necessity for carry- ing up-to-date stock, making the bus- iness attractive and square dealing with the public; whether in daily bay- Jing and selling, or in such enterpris- €3 as banks, insurance companies and ike corporations tht successfully function on the merits of their admin- istrative policies, . ; Present Business Advancement Previous years have scen enterpris- es confined to fields where the outlay of capital has not involve? such a- Mounts as projects of these days call for. The incorporation and capital- izntion of such industries as the aman- ufacture of Victrola records, automo- bile bodies, ive, dolls, toys and toilet articles are some of the larger under- takings. Theatres, hotels, laundries, bakeries, florals and jewelry shops, and department stores, are also busi- nesses of recent development. Panks and insurance companies have grown to such a stage that their combined Yesources aniount to from twenty to thirty million dollars or more. While many of the above enterpris- es do not include all business fields in which Negroes are engaged, the undertaking of many, irrespective of their magnitude, would hive seemed as chimerical a few yenrs past. ‘The professional setvice has grown to the extent that its practice and recogni- tion and influence are not wholly con- fined to the Race. Efficiency and Racial Appreciation Basis of Suecess As it is realized that efficiency in organization is the first requisite, the stability of success does not stop there. Faith in the men at the head of these enterprises and co-operation through patronization are the cornpr-stones on which these institutions have been permitted to proceed. Heretofore, business failures were largely ascrib- ed to the lack of appreciation of Ne: gro enterprises rather than a lack of workable business knowledge. Today the life of busines is due to its effi- ciency in organization and the patron- ice given it, This shows a higher appreciatiaon of Negro business.

Zion church on Queen street, Mr. E. E. Carrington, the national auditor of the American Woodmen, delivered an inspiring address on Woodcraft and fraternal societies in northern The American Woodmen, with headquarters in Denver, Colo., and coming under the influence of the Mobile Bill], and being a member of the Fraternal Congress, had its books examined each year by the authorized Actuary. Mr. Carrington said that the American Woodman was, the strongest Negro fraternal society in the United States today. That it had on deposit $700,000.00 for the protection of its members. That it had paid out over a million in benefits and that it had written more than $60,000,000.00 in insurance. When compared with the strongest insurance company east of the Mississippi, with $26,000,000.00 insurance in force we can readily see that the American Woodman are in the lead of others in this country.

Supreme Court to Settle Man's Fate Richmond, Va., Jan. 31.—The United States Circuit Court of Appeals is expected to hand down an opinion here this week deciding the fate of William H. Turner, under sentence of death for the murder of T. Morgan Moore, a government torpedo expert, on a reservation near Alexandria last month. His appeal was based principally on the conviction that District Judge Waddill erred in submitting testimony at the trial with evidence to an assault alleged to have beenmitted by the man on a young woman companion of Moore after the latter had been shot to death in an automobile.

PALMER'S PREPARATIONS MANY HELPED BY SALE OF SEALS Amount Available Not Yet Known by Headquarters—Many New Cases Discovered Free Clinics Asked by Some Richmond, Va., Feb. 5.—It was recently announced at the office of the Virginia Tuberculosis Association that while the returns are beginning to come in from the sale of Christmas Seals, it is impossible to estimate what funds the Association will have for its work during the coming year. It was stated that as a result of the sale of the seals great interest has been manifested in the work in every part of the State. Numbers of cases of tuberculosis have been discovered in remote rural districts which would not otherwise have been disclosed as persons who were asked to buy Christmas seals responded to the appeal, stating that they are interested in the work because of tuberculosis in their families. In such cases a personal letter has been written, advising examination by a doctor, and literature has been sent outlining in detail home treatment for those who cannot go to a sanitarium, and the protection of the members of the family who come in contact with the invalid. It is hoped that the funds realized from the Seal Sale will enable the Association to carry out its program for free clinics throughout the State, for it has been demonstrated where these clinics have been held that the people are eager for the examination, and hundreds of cases of tuberculosis have been found and treatment advised by the expert making the examination. A large number of counties have requested free clinics, and will receive them as rapidly as it is possible for the association to have them held. (By The Associated Nigran Press) Buffalo, N. Y., Feb. 5.—A few weeks ago, we learned that the name of Frederick Douglass had been rejected for the Hall of Fame and many of our men and women felt very bad because this illustrious man had not been chosen. We have the opportunity to place his name forever in the Hall of Fame at Anacostia, D. C., by making his home so beautiful that visitors from all over the world will make a beaten path to "Cedar Hill." Four years ago the Trustee Board of the Douglass Memorial Home sought the help of the National Association of colored women and in ten months we paid off the mortgage and saved the home from any further embarrassment. We did not restore, we simply redeemed; then the war came on and we could not finish the job. I called for ten thousand dollars for restoration, and during these years, in addition to wiping off the mortgage, we have raised an additional sum towards the restoration of four thousand dollars. To completely restore the home at least $6,000.00 is needed, and today we are sending out what we hope will be the last appeal to Club women and race men and women to fittingly celebrate the birthday of our illustrious Douglass by appropriate exercises, and by raising as large a sum as possible. Every organization or individual that contributes $25.00 will have their names written upon the parchment that will hang forever upon the walls of the home, thus showing to our children the names of men and women who desired to make of Cedar Hill our Hall of Fame. Mrs. C. J. Walker was the largest contributor, and to her memory a special tablet will be erected when the home is restored. The old Board of Tuskegee will meet in Washington, March 3rd, at the call of their president. The Board representing the National Association of Colored women will meet in Washington, March 5th, 1 p. m., at Cedar Hill. We desire that both boards will meet the public on the afternoon of March 5th, from 2 to 5 p. m., and every colored man and woman who comes to Washington for the Inauguration may consider this as the invitation to journey to this historic place, and here let us again receive inspiration by walking through the rooms made hallowed by the immortal Douglass. Saturday, February 12, 1921, will be known all over by loyal race men and women as Douglass Memorial Day. Send all contributions quickly to Mrs. J. C. Napier, 120 Fifteenth avenue, North, Nashville, Tenn., that she may have her report for us by March 5, 1921. Miss Hallie Q. Brown, Mrs. Booker T. Washington, Miss Elizabeth Carter, Mrs. Nettie L. Napier, Dr. Mary E. Waring, Mrs. S. Joe Brown, Mrs. Laura A. Brown, Mrs. Maggie L. Walker, Mrs. Addie W. Dickerson, Miss Meta Pelhnan, Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune, Mrs. Judith Horton, Mrs. Sallie W. Stewart, Miss Reverta J. Dunbar, Miss Nannie H. Burroughs, Mrs. Mary B. Talbert—representing the National Association of Colored Women. Think first and spend afterwards. Then you will save more. Put aside regularly a certain sum to be saved. Spend the rest wisely as needed. The amount you save is of less importance than the fact that you really do save. Those who regularly put aside a part of their earnings are those who succeed. Savings Stamps point the way to success. How can you possibly be content unless your future is secure. By putting your money regularly in War Savings Stamps you can banish worry. NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE The Rivals By MURIEL LEE "I may not be an 'are.'" said Ben Mantell, "but I am a 'could-be,' which is a 'maybe,' with a chance of touching par." "My! But you've got it pat," succeeded Bryan Darlon, nephew of John Darlon, the employer of both of them. "Ever tell that to Emuice Reade?" "Please leave the lady's name out of our discussion," suggested Ben, a triple sternly. "I haven't hit it quite right with your uncle, but I was a success in the position he hired me away from." "A 'has been,' ch?" "Well, I'd rather be a 'has been' than a 'might have been,' for a 'has been' is an 'are.'" "Studied out very prettily," jeered Darlon, still in an aggressive tone, "No, you don't suit the old man, and he having left me in charge during his absence I take it upon myself to fire you." Ben Mantell's face flushed, but he subdued the resentful words that arose to his lips, "I doubt your right," he said quietly now, "but I'll go. The loss of the Evans contract was not my fault and your, uncle, if a fair minded man, can't think otherwise. I have found out the reason why the order was canceled. Better keep me here until your uncle returns and I can tell him about it." "Tell me," submitted Bryan. "No," came the definite response, "Do you discharge me, then?" "With pleasure," retorted Bryan maliciously, "If I wore you, I'd go down to Melville. There's lot of open positions there." "I propose to stay right here in Chesterton," observed Ren. "I am not afraid, and something will come my way." Bryan Darlon shrugged his shoulders, but he also snarled. This unexpected independence irritated him. He had an object in bumbling Ren from Elmwood. Both of them were in love with Emilia Reade, the belle of the little town. It was her nature to be kind to everybody, and while she discerned a certain attitude hearing on the part of Bryan as if his prospects should recommend him to wise young ladies who cared for wealth and position, she did not know her own heart at the first and treated each of her suitors with like uniform consideration and courtesy. But Eunice Ronde knew her heart much better two days after Ben Mantell had been so rudely and officiously discharged from his position at the Darlon establishment. Her brother Ned, also employed there, had brought her the news of the circumstances. It seemed that he had overboard the final conversation between Bryan and Ben, and he had repeated it to Eunice. He was a stunn adorent of Ben, who had taken great pains to see to his advancement in his employment, and he despised Bryan because of little tricks of selfishness and meanness he had traced in him. "Ben isn't one bit downhearted," he declared. "But you couldn't make a mistake in taking sides with him, for its a plain, open affair. Bryan wants to get Ben away from here because he is jealous of him." Of course it was too delicate a subject for Eunice to discuss with her brother, but she saw both Bryan and Ben within the ensuing few days and studied them closely, attaching importance to every word they spoke and analyzing the situation in a fair minded way. Bryan betrayed his empathy toward Ben at the start. He exaggerated his faults, if they were such; he gloated over his power to cast him adrift without a warning. His treacherous spirit was so apparent to Eunice that he actually succeeded in making her the unwavering champion of the rival he hated. It led to Eunice and Ben becoming mutually confidential and drew them closer together than ever before. "You have honored me with your interest and sympathy," said Ben, "and I cannot but ask to make you my confidant. The reason the large contract which Mr. Darlon blames me for losing was not awarded to his house was because the Evans company, which has been a client of the Darlons for years, expect to go into the same line of manufacture themselves. I would not trade or deal with them while I was with the Darlons, but now that I am unjustly discharged I must, of course, look to my own interests. The truth is, Miss Readie, that they will soon appear as active business rivals to the Darlons, and as they have unlimited capital will certainly divide the trade. I am quietly acting as their agent now in looking for a building site for the factory they design to erect." Bryan Darion received a cold reception when next he visited Eunice Rende. With charrin and bitterness he saw her in the company of Ben Mantell on several occasions and comprehended that she had no further desire for his company or his attentions. Then when his uncle returned the whole truth came out. The old man got into a frightful race when he learned that the impetuous unwisdom of his nephew had driven from his employ a man who could make the new business rival an immediate and complete success. And having won distinction and bested his enemies in an honorable way, Ben won and married Eunice and entered upon the fullness of life. The prosperity of the country rests on the prosperity of individuals. Give systematically and buy wisely and become a prosperous citizen. SILAS' MEMORIAL By MARJORIE PIERCE. (82, 1920, by McClure Newspaper Syndicate) Susan Deborah Mills Fisher Trent was exceedingly proud of her new husband, her third, as her name attested. She was a middle-aged woman, jail, thin, shrill of voice and scent of hair. What little of woman's crowning glory she did possess she drew to a tight little knob at the back of her narrow head. She knew all there was to be known about men, according to her own judgment, and felt that at last she had chosen aright. The poor deceased Mr. Mills had been a young, rather good-looking fellow when Susan wadded him. That was when Susan was also young and her hair was not drawn so tightly back from her thin face. Mr. Fisher had been an older man, perhaps forty-five. Susan had ensnared him in the goosey net of a lemon pie when she was running a boarding-house at Green Hill. Fisher simply could not resist Susan's lemon pies, and when Susan threatened to depart Howe's Center to work at the hotel, Fisher decided that the wisest course for him to take was to marry Susan and the lemon pies, which he did forthwith. Perhaps the ples shortened Fisher's mortal coil. At any rate, Susan was soon ready for a third attempt at matrimony. She did not even folgm love to Mr. Trent. He needed a housekeeper and she needed a home. Thus the two were married. Silnut Trent was about sixty years old, slim like Susan, and somewhat bent from long hours of booing and weeding. He chewed tobacco and smoked. Susan did not know that he chewed, which fact only goes to show that even a woman of Mrs. Millis Fischer Trent's experience does not know all there is to be known about men. She did know that he smoked, but never was the "lilthy odor" of tobacco smoke to be found in the farmhouse. Poor Silns smoked in the vast out-of-doors, and only the pure mountain air was tainted. He was afraid of his wife, not of her physical person as a whole, but he was desperately afraid of her tongue, and she made his life at home very unhappy. He was glad to escape, if possible, for a short holiday. After about six months of married life Mr. Trent decided that he was due for a holiday and, as the circus was to visit the adjoining town, he bursured up the colt and went to the "show." At the circus Silns enjoyed his freedom to his heart's content. There was a refreshment booth at the circus, so he betook himself inside and ordered a supper consisting of "hot dogs" and a glass of pink lemonade. When the frankfurters and lemonade had disappeared Silas was still hungry and thirsty, so a second order of three "hot dogs" and a pink lemonade followed the first and finally a third took the same trail. Silas was at last "refreshed" and he started home to Susan. On the way he felt rather slick. When he arrived home he felt slicker, and soon Susan in terror called the doctor, for Silas was writting and grooming in agony. Palas seemed to be in every part of his poor thin body at the same instant. The doctor arrived, but Silas died. Even a doctor could not overcome nine hot dogs attacking at once. Susan was, to all appearances, stunned by grief. How she mourned! Black crane was not enough. Tears continually drowned her eyes till after Silas was buried. She talked of what a great love had been taken from her, and as proof of her loyalty to his memory she showed her friends a small box in which, she explained, she had placed a "memorial" of her poor dear husband. This box she wore suspended from a card around her scrawny neck, and tucked carefully under her black album waist. All the countryside was interested in that "memorial." Everyone was curious. What could old Mrs. Trent be wearing in that box as a remembrance of her departed third? And so on ran the rumors. The newspapers in the nearest city heard of "Mr. Trent's memorial" and reporters, eager for copy, rushed to Susan's humble cottage for information. They returned with snapshots of the much discussed box, but no information as to its contents. No one was able to satisfy his ever increasing curiosity, and so the box with its "memorial" was the wonder and mystery of the village until the day on which Susan Deborah Mills-Fisher-Trent revealed its secret. It was not many moons after Silas Trent's death that Susan was sorely stricken with a toothache. She hastened to a dentist. She had only seven of her own teeth in her mouth, and he advised their extraction. Susan at first objected. She claimed that she was minus the necessary funds for the purchase of a set of the manufactured variety. She was about to leave the office when suddenly she stopped, fumbled at the front of her waist and produced the box in which was known to be the "memorial" of Silas Trent. Turning to the dentist she handed him the box which she had loosened from the cord, and in a matter-of-fact tone said: "Land sakes, I clean forgot that 'memorial.' I saved them old teeth of Silas' a-purpose to have 'em made over some day if I ever had need of 'em." Thus was the "memorial" mystery solved. If you are in earnest about bettering your position in life, make this your motto, "Save First—Spend Afterwards." Thrift and Savings Stamps give you an opportunity to put your small savings to work. Intelligent thrift is not the mania of the miser. It does not mean saving money for money's sake. It means the expenditure of money with a clear vision of your needs both present and NOTICE run to wait until the very last minute Tax Return for last year. is extra expense and worry that can over to one that will handle all the rest assured that the work will be one you can rest assured that every- will be done, and without delay, or DURHAM, Public Accountant. It is better to start in time than to wait until the very last minute in preparing your Federal Income Tax Return for last year.

If your work is intrusted to me you can rest assured that everything pertaining to your interest will be done, and without delay, or annoyance to you. --- Economize ---Save Have you ever thought of the many ways in which you waste your earnings?

The annual meeting of the stockholders of the Community Co-operative Store was held Monday night, January 24th, in the assembly room of the Effinar Street School building. Reports were submitted from the manager and treasurer, both of which showed a satisfactory condition of the business. All of the officers were reelected except the secretary, Geo. McGuire, who resigned. R. W. Lee was chosen to succeed him. The singing of John Wesley M. E. choir is noticeably improved by the basso profundo of David H. Stephens. Mr. Weldon Francis is home from the West because, he states, of the security of employment in that section. We know 'his true, for he is known to be a working proposition. Mr. J. C. Holmes, the congenial proprietor of the Water Street restaurant, is now tipping the scales at 230—a splendid demonstration of the wholesome quality of his bill of fare. Those who were not present at the entertainment given by Mrs. Annie Fowler Friday night, January 28th, missed a rare musical and literary treat. The masterpieces of Dunbar were presented in a manner that convulsed the audience with laughter and applause, and the singing of "Repentance" and "Good Bye" was great. Miss Julia Irving was accompanist. The music rendered by the Legion Trio—Robt. Laird, violin; Harry Newman, saxophone; Miss Myrtle Newman, pianist, was also an enjoyable feature of the occasion. Mr. L. H. Brown, proprietor of an amusement and recreation parlor on Water street, is to be congratulated upon the business-like and up-to-date method of its operation. Dr. E. Dickerson, though busy in the growing practice of his profession, is an enthusiastic champion of all efforts for the civic betterment of the community.

Both Dramatic and Thrilling "The next Attucks feature will be "Woman's Man" featuring Romaine Fielding, one of the best known photo-play stars. "Woman's Man" was directed by Romaine Fielding and he took the leading part as well. One of the big scenes in "Woman's Man" is the head-on collision between two rapidly moving trains. This is clearly seen and is sure to cause one to hold one's breath. The trains are seen coming down the mountain and when they hit, they pile up in a huge pile and the cars roll down the embankment. There are several other big punches in this picture. "Woman's Man" is tb first picture that Romaine Fielding has appeared in since "For The Freedom of the World," which he made for Goldwyn just previous to enlisting in the service. to husband brings her into conflict with natural inherited tendencies which have more than once proved baneful in her family history.

In addition to Mr. Fielding, the cast of characters contains many names that are well known to tAttucks patrons. "THE GREATER SINNER" IS SOME PICTURE An engagement out of the ordinary is provided by the management of the well known stage and screen star James K. Hackett, in his latest photodrama, "The Greater Sinner," for two days, commencing Wednesday. Mr. Hackett's splendid talents have for the most part been devoted to the speaking stage, and only when presented itself for picturization has this Broadway star turned those talents to the screen. Such an instance is provided by "The Greater Sinner," advance reports of which are said to more than sustain the large claims made for this photodrama. Heading the supporting cast are Ormi Hawley and Irving Cummings, both well-known to local picture lovers. The play is in the "special" class, telling its unusual story in five parts, and has to do with the adventures of a young Southern girl in a certain phase of mixed society in New York City. "The Greater Sinner" is said to have a special appeal for women because of their natural sympathy with one of their own sex involved in a terrific struggle when devotion Open S Kramers Unde Open Sunday Kramers Underselling Store will be open SUNDAYS.

MAKES A CLEVER SHERLOCK HOLMES Solves Difficult Cases That Baffles Other Detectives The first five-reel feature of "Tex. Eucidator of Mysteries" series, "Circumstantial Evidence," which comes to the Attucks Theatre next Monday introduces "Tex" and explains why he turned back on a life of luxury to devote it to championing the victims of circumstantial evidence. As a young man, he himself, had been wrongfully sentenced to life imprisonment for the murder of his best friend. Instead of becoming embittered by his experiences in prison and later on by the ostracism of his former friends, he turned his attention to others placed in the same helpless position and his name became a terror in the underworld. "Tex, Elucidator of Mysteries" has twelve intensely interesting five-reel features. They have all the thrills and unexpected climaxes in the stories of Sherlock Holmes and Dupin, with an additional heart interest element engendered through sympathy for the unfortunate victims for whose release "Tex" works. The different roles are skillfully presented by a cast of leading players well known to motion picture patrons. Among these are Glen White, who takes the part of "Tex" and David Wall, Alexander F. Frank, Leo Delaney, Jane McAlpine, Joe Striker, and Marie Treador. The pictures are splendidly directed by Tom Collins. Patrons will look forward to "Tex" night as one of the most enjoyable of the month.

THE OLD RELIABLE CORN PONE The writer of this article has been spending sometime in the Mississippi delta, and has been gratified by nothing so much as the old time Southern food and cooking which he was used to in his youth but which got away from him in a long residence in Northern parts. A great many of the Afro-Americans live on the substantial, simple and cheap fare of the old days, in which there is not much of fresh meat or flour used during the week, and then mostly on Sundays and festive days. In this way they have plenty to eat all of the time and make ends meet more easily than those in other sections who get higher wages and eat fresh meat and flour bread three times a day. Purple top turnips and greens, sweet potatoes out of which the syrup drips when they are baked, and corn pone, with the usual square inch of white bacon in the turnips and greens, makes a meal that is both appetizing and sustaining, and has the merit of costing not more than thirty cents, and being sufficient to feed a family of four. Other meals based upon the corn pone are made as economically. The amount of fresh meats eaten by the people in the Northern and Western States is appalling as well as expensive and unhealthy. They should eat more corn meal all over the country. We are sure it has more nutritive value for the heavy worker than what products. A recent bulletin of the Federal Department of Agriculture has the following to say about corn-meal bread: "Corn-meal breads raised by soda, baking powder, or eggs, may also be freely used. Corn meal milled by modern processes does not make so moist bread as the old-fashioned type of meal, unless it is heated with water before the bread is mixed. If one understands this point, either kind of meal can be easily and satisfactorily used. Spoon breads made from corn meal or corn meal and rice are other kinds which vary the bread list. These are softer than ordinary bread, but not so soft as porridge or much, and, unlike the latter, they have a distinct, well-browned crust. "Griddlecakes and pancakes are really a kind of thin bread cooked on a hot surface instead of in an oven, and in planning meals the wise housekeeper will think of them in this way. She will also remember that the butter and syrup often served with them yield valuable fuel, or energy, for the body." Southern farmers who read the Journal and Guide will find it to their advantage to use corn meal and hominy more than they have been doing in their domestic economy. They will find it easier to have plenty of corn in the crib than plenty of wheat, and vastly more economical in the end. And there are so many ways in which to make corn-meal bread, from the simple water, salt and meat, to the egg, sour milk, butter and baking powder luxurious bread, that it is a marvel the use of corn meal has been allowed to fall into such disuse. They know better in many homes in the Mississippi delta. We should learn better in Tidewater Virginia and the Carolinas. -T. THOMAS FORTUNE. Race's Farmers to Meet in February Rocky Mount, N. C., Jan. 31.—Rage farmers from all over North Carolina have been invited to attend the sessions of the North Carolina Negro Farmers' Congress, which will be held at the Bricks school, located at Bricks, in Halifax county, February 15-16, inclusive. The first session opens Monday night, February 14, while the meeting will close at 2 o'clock on the afternoon of February 16th, with a barbecue dinner. An interesting program is being prepared for the occasion by the officials of the State Department of Agriculture and several prominent speakers have already been secured to congress. A meeting being held may be the Bricks school community to care for the delegates to the congress, and it is announced that there will be no charges for board and lodging. It is likewise announced that local trains Nos. 33 and 34 will stop on signal, while efforts are under way to have Nos. 80 and 89 stop, provided a stipulated number of delegates are going or coming. Republicans Prearing to Look into the South Washington, Jan. 30.—The Republican National Committee is preparing to investigate party conditions in the South for the purpose of recommending changes in the apportionment delegates to the next National Convention. Will H. Hayes, National chairman, today announced the make-up of the committee which will conduct the inquiry in accordance with resolutions adopted by Chicago convention. Mr. Hays will be ex-officio chairman. The members are: Representative C. Bassamie; Representative Leroy Kinsley, National Committeeman, Vermont and K. P. Howell, National Committeeman, Nebraska. PRESBYTERY CONVTION (Continued from page 1) At Norfolk passed into history. Dr. J. Kelly Griffin, president of Knoxville College, Knoxville, Tenn., addressed the former Norfolk Mission College Alumni in the auditorium of the Ft. United Presbyterian church last Friday evening. Dr. Griffin speaking in behalf of the New World Movement. He took for his subject, "The Second Mile." Those who heard will not soon forget the message he brought. The appeal for the Freedmen's Board was made by the Rev. J. F. Board. In fifteen minutes the alumni responded by cash and subscriptions to the amount of $500.00 of $500.00 they were asked to raise for the immediate emergency of the Board, and plans were made to reach all the alumni members and under graduates which, when carried out, will bring the New World Movement Board through the New World Movement Fund of the United Presbyterian Church up to $1,000.00. Communion services last Sabbath were the largest within the last five years in a service of unusual spiritual power. Dr. Griffin conducted the service. EXTRACT MILK, INS'T COFFEE (Continued from Page 1) of ink. I find that the peanut makes a very fine quality of ink . . . And then here is a bottle of mock oysters. The peanut curds can be made into mock meat-dishes so thoroughly that it is impossible to tell them from me. We are going to use less and less meat just as soon as science touches these various vegetable products and teaches us how to use them." Compressum Carew—"Did you make all of these products yourself?" Carew—"Yes, sir; they are made in the research laboratory (at Tuskegee). The sweet potato products (107) we have not finished working with them, but the peanut products are going to beat the sweet potato products by far. I have just begun with the peanut. I have with me a number of other things products from the peanut—probably 25 or 30 others, including various wood dyes and stains." Of course, the witness described the numerous uses of the peanut which are familiar to the general public—the butter and the oils made from and the many confections. He also described peanut cake for fast food, and the combination of peanut-neal and "peanut hip" which, mixed with molasses and chinaberry, makes a valuable tonic food for livestock. There seemed to be no end to his magic. This was one of his striking statements in conclusion: "If we think of how the peanut is used, it is the only thing that is universally used among civilized and uncivilized people, and all sorts of animals like it. It is a natural diet that was intended that everybody should use. Here Chairman Fordney asked Prof. Carver what school he had attended." "The last school I attended," replied the witness, "was the Agricultural College of Iowa. You doubtless remember Mr. James Wilson, who served in the Cabinet here so long. He was my instructor for six years." Congressman Carew—"You have rendered the committee a great service." Congressman Garner—"I think he is entitled to the thanks of the committee." (Applause). "The Chairman—"We want to compliment you on the way you have handled your subject." It was at the suggestion of Represen- tation Holland, of Suffolk, that the United States associations brought Prof. Carver before the way and means committee; and he certainly made a hit. TUSKEGEE CONFERENCE CO-OPERATION OF WHITE SOUTH Each year the stream of Southern white leaders, flowing to Tuskegee Institute for inspiration and for information, grows larger. Recently M. C. Allgood, Commissioner of the State of Alabama Agriculture and Industry, large company of Negro farmers and their wives the hope that eventually every cleared family in Alabama will be able to take the time to visit Tuskegee and see what is being done, and, above all, what has been done through constructive work of quiet, persistent, constructive commissioner Allgood, in his address on "The Negro in Agriculture," said: This Southern white leader advised the Negro farmers to form marketing associations, to sell co-operatively, and to diversify their crops. He cautioned them against spending so much of their money for State-imported milk, for state butter, eggs, milk, and corn meals. But he also "a great deal of money has been leaving the South for automobiles, accessories, and gasoline." The exhibits covered the following lines of work: the making of dinner pails and dish pans; the making of harness, trimming of automobiles, and the repairing of shoes; the placing of window panes; the making of simple, useful furniture; the testing of speed corn; the making of farm conveniences; the making of a year-round marketing of vegetables, poultry and cured fish butter and the growing of good live milk. The girl's work, group under the caption "Working in the Home" included a modern arrangement and equipment of a kitchen, dinning-room, living-room, and bath-room. The "Better Baby Exhibit" and the charts showing extension activities of the U.S. Department of Agriculture attracted considerable attention. FAIR TREATMENT FOR ALL We have too long permitted our people, especially the farmers, to be received and often defrauded by a certain class of so-called 'leaders' who have with some sure solution of the new problem of organizing some new movement, some secret-secret order, selling stock with a desire to make all the colored people rich in a short while, and in other ways to get for them the civil and political rights that they may ask for.
