CIVIC IMPROVEMENTS ASSURED CITIZENS PRESIDENT OF LIBERIA HERE ON IMPORTANT MISSION FIRST IN LIVE NEWS ALL-THE TIME VOL. XXI. NO. 13 CIVIC PRESIDE CITY MANAG BETTER LIVING AMONG COLO DECLARES DEATH RATE TOO HIGH $ 5,000 Appropriation Sought From Council SEEK CO-OPERATION Local Leaders Signify Their Willingness To Serve Many improvements that are absolutely necessary have been recently promised by City Manager Ashburner. The people here have much to hope for, judging by the latest recommendation from the City Manager to Council. Council tentatively approved the proposition. Definite action will be taken up next Tuesday. The City Manager's letter to Council follows: "As you are perhaps aware, I have disapproved most emphatically of the way in which community service amongst the colored people was conducted during the last twelve months. I am particularly to the clubhouse, where my constructive work being done. "As you will remember, all community work has been turned over to the Director of Public Welfare, where it rightly belongs, and who has associated with himself Dr. Southgate Leigh and Herbert Cochran. It is necessary at his time, when radical forces at work in the tempt to destroy the work of those who would build up a people, that something be done to help our representative colored men and women, ministers, lawyers, teachers, doctors, and others, who would put on a comprehensive program for the betterment of conditions amongst the colored people. "A very comprehensive and beneficial program has been mapped out in co-operation with the Health Department for safeguarding and improving sanitation and health of the colored people. The Director of Public Welfare states: "This is very important when we consider the relative death rates in the two races: In 1820, the general death rate was 8.5 per 1,000 per annum for the white population, against 20 for the colored. Infant mortality was 94 deaths among the white babies under 1 year of age against 650 for the colored babies. The rate was for the white and the colored. One colored baby in every six died; only one white baby in twenty-one died." "For tuberculosis the rates are just as striking. The white rate was 72; the colored rate was 247 per 100,000. It is but fair to say, however, that these rates compare most favorably with the rates throughout the country, and are far better than those rates in South Africa. The colored death rate is very high all over United States, as compared with that of the white race; nevertheless, this ought not to be. "It is due to improper living, had personal hygiene, insanitation and overcrowding of homes, indiscretions in diet, bad housing and poverty. These are the very conditions that community workers seek to overcome in their co-operation with the Health Department. They live, interested organization among the colored people could accomplish much to improve health conditions. Bad health conditions among the colored people constitute a menace to health conditions in the white race, and vice versa. "They propose also to organize a department for the encouragement of thrift and to prevent idleness. The colored people will be encouraged to build and improve their homes through the Building and Loan association point of savings accounts to banks to save their money. Stress will be laid upon the dangers of viciousness and idleness. Classes inculcating civic pride will be organized, teaching the principles of citizenship and right living from every point of view. PRE-NATAL INSTRUCTIONS "It is contemplated, in this health and welfare work, to give pre-natal instructions and how to raise and care for children. It is planned to teach home nursing; to open clinics; classes in domestic science; housewives' duties; saving, military and social uplift, through co-operation with churches and other organizations. In short, they have a splendid program, and, if carried out, it will result in a big asset to the city." "It is estimated that the expense attached to this work will be approximately $7,000, but I feel that Norfolk MOTHERS CONGRESS COMES TO A CLOSE (By The Associated Negro Press) Dallas, Tex., March 7—The National Negro Congress of Mothers closed a two-days session here last week. The meeting was addressed by Mrs. Eugene Bagby, Mrs. Edward Kneeland Mrs. Ella Carruthers, and Mrs. M. B. Ford. COMMIT SUICIDE TO ESCAPE MOB (BY THE MISSISSIPPI NEGRO TREE) Beaumont, Texas, March 7—Rather than be burned to death Monroe Gilder, the grotesque, shot and killed himself. He had been brought himself at his home after he had killed two others. Negroes and a white man in an altercation last Monday night. Citizens surround the home of Gilder and in the effort to capture him fired the house. Finding escape impossible, under the circumstances the murderer shot himself. METHODISTS CONTINUE SUPPORT Despite Depression That Prevails at Present LOYALTY VALUED Construction Work at All Schools to Continue New York City, March 10—Enlargement and extension of the facilities in the 18 schools and colleges for Negroes maintained in the South by the Methodist Episcopal church, together with the receipt of $250 out of the Centenary Fund of that denunciation, is reported in the current Advocate, the Methodist Society, by Dr. P. J. Maxeyt, Corresponding Secretary of the Methodist Board of Education for Negroes, successor to the Freedman's Aid Society. This statement shows that of the $1,075,000 pledged for their education by the Methodist Centenary for a period of the end of the first year $305,000 out of sum has been paid, in spite of fact that the financial depression has cut down the Centenary collections to 72 per cent of the sum expected. The support given to the cause of Negro education by the leaders of the Methodist Episcopal Church thus has given to any other of the many funds upon which funds were apportioned the basis of complete collection. This loyality in time of depression and shrinkage has been much appreciated by the 350,000 Negro Methodists, whose devotion to their church has been an outstanding feature of their group and was recognized in many speeches on the occasion of the quadrangular General Conference, where two ministers were elected bishops with full rank and powers. The Methodist Board of Education for Negroes supervises such institutions as Clark University, Atlanta, Ga.; George R. Smith College, Sedalia, Mo.; Wiley College, Marshall, Texas; Rust College, Holly Springs, Miss.; Flint-Goodridge Hospital, and Nurse's Training School and New Orleans College, New Orleans; and Bennett College, Greensboro, N. C. and Samuel Huston College, Austin, Texas. At practically all of these institutions new buildings or extensions and repairs are either in process or in contemplation, according to Secretary Mavety. INVITE DANIELS TO SPEAK Raleigh, N. C.—The Slater Industrial and State Normal School at Winston-Salem has invited former secretary of the Navy Daniels to make the commencement address there this spring. those directly benefited should show their interest in the work to a certain extent. This the colored community workers have promised to do by giving their time and money for the furtherance of the work. It is necessary, however, that the city should come to their assistance at this time, particularly when it is considered that the health of the community depends upon health of the people. "I feel, therefore, that the appropriation of $5,000 should be made to the Department of Public Welfare to enable the director to carry out this educational campaign among the colored people." NORFOLK, VA., SATURDAY, MARCH 12, 1921 EXECUTIVES WHO ASSUMED THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF GOVERNMENT LAST FRIDAY PRES. WARREN S. WARDING What President Harding said last Friday was of interest to all, but the following excerpts are of special interest to our readers: "I wish for an America no less alert in guarding against dangers from within than it is watchful against enemies from without. Our fundamental law recognizes no class, no group, no section. There must be none in legislation or administration." "But its greatest function of all, (the Senate) does little mentofoned and too little unmistocked, when, in bed in legislating or reviewing, is the preservation of liberty. Not merely the rights of the majority, they little need protection, but the rights of the minority, from whatever source they may be assailed." REFORMATORY FOR BOYS IN NORTH CAROLINA State Legislature Has Acted Favorably to Race APPROPRIATION INCREASED Dr. Shepherd Appointed New Endowment Secretary (By T. L. McCoy) Raleigh, N. C.-Journal and Guide Bureau, March 10, 1921. The statutory 60 days limitation of the State Legislature which convened here early last January expired last Saturday night, but on account of some important legislation which demands attention of the present legislature, the members unanimously adjourn the vote of adjournment until Tuesday when the eventful law making body's will go into the history of this commonwealth. It is gratifying to say that no radical legislations were proposed to infringe upon the rights of the Negro citizenry of this State; but on the other hand a law was enacted to envisage a Reformatory for incorrigible colored boys and girls and $20,000 appropriated for its establishment. The Agricultural and Technical School at Greenshore received an increased appropriation of $20,000 for two years in addition to the $40,000 it received during the past two years. Former Governor T. W. Bickett is the greatest amount of credit for this establishment the State Colored Reformatory that he urged and recommended to the people the State that such an institution is due the colored citizens of the State. Some weeks ago a representative of the Invinicible Wizard, Col. Simmons, Grand Chief of the Klu Kux Klan, with headquarters in Atlanta, Ga., staged a public meeting which took place in this city, in the city auditorium, for the purpose of explaining the mission of the disguised secret society local branch of the order dressed in face faces and white robes, marched through the streets to the auditorium and the stage to the number of about two hundred. The speaker with covered face spoke for one and a half hour, attempting to explain the why and wherefore this organization is formed. Occasionally he received an applause started by his chansmen. The audience did not join in the applause heartily. The major part of his speech was resenting the charge that the Klu Kux Klan is started to antagonize and will use the Negro population. "As soon as our klan is well established," he said, "we will welcome the (Continued on page 4) WASHINGTON D.C. CROWDED WITH OFFICE SEEKERS Inauguration Week Embraced Many Parties (By Daniel W. Chase) Washington, D. C., Journal and Guide Bureau, March 11, 1921. With the exception of some prominent men and women of color remaining in Washington to look after racial and other matters, most of the visitors have returned to their several homes and things are getting back to normal. The President's message has been widely discussed, and several of the leading ministers of the city have promised to go into it at their regular services. Mr. Harding's message to strike a harmonious chord with the colored brother, in that Mr. Harding collected beforehand the passage that he kiss, whereas the other persons taking the oath of office have opened the Bible at random, and kissed the passage without any particular reason for the passage so kissed. Colored citizens generally speaking seem to like each of the new abstinent members, and they believe that new administration will do what is right, not for men as a class, but for men as men. The Hon. Champ Clark passed away, and though a man of no mean ability his passing was marked by no particular degree of interest among the colored element, Mr. Clark being remembered chiefly because of the fact that he attempted 'to beat up' a colored man, whom he thought became a little too fresh. The members of Mr. Wilson's Cabinet have all made known their intention to return to their homes, to enter journalistic fields, to practice law, and the like, but the most significant of all is the thought expressed by Hon. Joseph Daniels, who rounded out eight years as Mr. Wilson's Secretary of the Navy. Mr. Daniels says that the first thing he will do when he reaches home is to go to church and 'pray for his many sins. Amen! And thereby hangs a tale. The Beta Beta Chapter of the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority was "at home" on Inauguration Day in honor of Miss Hallie Q. Brown and Mrs. Alice Dumbar Nelson. Miss Brown and Mrs. Nelson were outstanding figures in Washington life during the week, being present at various meetings, where each delivered addresses. (Continued on page 4) White Candidate for Council Forced Out and Race Man Nominated Hagerstown, Md., March 7.—Colored people in Ward 5, at the Republican city primaries last Saturday, sprang a surprise upon the regular organization when they massed a large crowd of voters at the polling place and nominated for councilman Richard C. Barnum, a prominent race citizen. Former Councilman George B. Alexander, who had expected a renomination, when he saw the race people had organized, withdrew his name and Barnum was nominated without opposition. Republican leaders stated after the primary that an independent Republican, a white man, would be nominated against Barnum. PRESIDENT OF LIBERIA ARRIVES Will Discuss Credits for Country With State Dept. Officials Washington, D. C.—President C. B. D. King, of the republic of Liberia, reached Washington from New York city. He was met at Union station by a deputation of leading colored citizens, including Dr. Emmett J. Scott secretary-treasurer Howard University; James A. Cobb, former assistant, United States district attorney, and three representatives of the State Department. President King was accompanied to Washington by F. E. R. Johnston, of the Lebanon supreme court; John Lewis Morris, Attorney Lasellian secretary of the treasury, and Gabriel L. Dennis, secretary of the commission. President King is here to work out with the State Department final details in connection with the credit established by the American government for Liberin in 1918. GARVEY'S STAND IION. MARCUS GARVEY "We have no animus against the white man," says Garvey. "All that we have desired, as a race, is a place in the sun. Four hundred million people are too numerous not to have a place in the sun. If sixty million Anglo-Saxons can have a place in the sun, if eighty million Germans can still have a place in the sun, I do not see why we cannot have a place—a big spot—in that self-same sun." And whether or not the desired sunspot is to be Africa, with Marcus Garvey hasking in command, we read that an emotional Irishwoman viewing the impressive parade that attended the U. N. I. A. convention in New York, with tears upon her checks and in tones of despair, cried: "And to think, the Negroes will get their liberty before the Irish." $540,999 FOR RACE'S EDUCATION Raleigh, N, C.—The North Carolina Legislature made appropriations to race schools to the amount of $540,990.00. This amount was divided as follows: State Normal, Elizabeth City; the Normal school at Fayetteville; Slater Normal, Winston-Salem, combined appropriation, $400,000. A reformatory for boys to be erected, $25,000. A. & T. College, Greensboro, $115,990. MOB THWARTED OF PREY BY REFUSAL OF GIRL TO IDENTIFY MEN ARRESTED MOB THWARTED OF PREY BY REFUSAL OF GIRL TO IDENTIFY MEN ARRESTED RACE MAN ACTS AS FOREMAN OF JURY (By The Associated Negro Press) Burlington, N. J., March 7—As a foreman of a jury in the Burlington County courts last week, Edward Lane enjoys the distinction of being the first man of the race to be honored in this section of New Jersey, if not in the entire State. SEEK BETTER SCHOOLS IN WILMINGTON, DEL (By The Associated Negro Press) Wilmington, Del., March 7—Wilmington colored people have inaugurated a movement which seeks to procure new school buildings for colored children. The City Council has been petitioned in the matter and the colored citizens believe they will get the new building at the coming session of the State Legislature. LOCATION FOR LIBRARY IS AGREED UPON Room at High School Secured by the Committee FIRST IN STATE To Be Well Stocked With All Kinds of Books At Tuesday afternoon's meeting of the Norfolk Board of Education it was voted to give the Norfolk Public Library the use of one room in the hooker T. Washington High School for use as a community library for those people. The room to be turned over to the public library is a spacious one, and will be fitted up as soon as possible. It is the intention of the Public Library to supply the new branch with the very best in literature, the books selected being sufficiently varied to be suitable reading for children and adults and diversified enough to cover many branches of knowledge. Fiction books probably will predominate, but scientific and other topics will be covered. Great care will be exercised in choosing the books. While the number of books will be necessarily limited, owing to the branch library being confined to one room, they will make up in quality what they lack in quantity. The matter of furnishing the people with a community library has been under consideration for some time. When the Library Club was in operation, it supplied to a certain extent, the literary needs of a large proportion of the Race but not the highest. The berserk was a limited to males, it fell short of supplying the whole demand. The Race has been without a public reading room since the Library Club ceased its activities. $500 RAISED TO HELP WASHINGTON (By The Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C., March 7—Five hundred dollars has been raised to help Clarence's year's race riot, to procure her freedom. Prominent Washingtonians are interested in the woman's case. N. A. A. C. P.

The boy, Wm. A. Wood, was riding his bicycle in one of the prominent streets near the curb. A short distance in front of him was an automobile standing still. As the boy approached the car from the rear, it is alleged it suddenly backed up, striking the front wheel of the bicycle and breaking it into pieces and knocked the boy from the wheel. The car escaped, but not before the boy got the number of the car. PROGRESSIVE IN EVERY RESPECT PRICE FIVE CENTS TIZENS MISSION TED OF PREY OF GIRL TO ARRESTED DETERMINED TO FIND MAN IF COLORED Inability to Find Mer Arouses Country's Suspicion GOVERNOR SILENT Many Race Homes are Entered by Mob Leaders Richmond, Va., Murch 10.—Sorious trouble was expected in the vicinity of stop 26 on the Richmond-Peten- burg car line during the first of the week because of an alleged attack on a white girl Sunday afternoon. The story goes that the girl had just alighted from a car at stop 26 and had started to church. As she was passing through a field two men, when she thinks were colored, called upon her to yield (or help). Her cries attracted a number of whites who immediately pursued the two men. The news as is customary in the South, spread like wild fire and within a short time scores of men and boys were on the customary man hunt with every kind of weapon obtainable. Every officer in Chesterfield County involved his horse and forced the man hunt and police from Richmond and Petersonburg augmented the already large force. Bloodbounds were secured, but not until after much trouble. Notwithstanding the pursuit was immediately taken up and the men's tracks are supposed to have been plainly visible in the earth, no trace of the men has been found. It is openly the fault of the alleged deed was perpetrated by the Governor of the State of Virginia has made no attempt to protect the men should they be caught; knowing if they are caught, a lynching would in all probability follow. Two men have been carried before the white girl for identification, but quite unlike many others, refused to identify them, shafed the offender be balked the first time the offender again carried the same two men before the girl and again she refused to accuse them. More enraged than ever, the officers decided to have one of the men go to the scene of the alleged attack and have him walk over course supposed to have been taken, and then he proposed to put the dogs on his wield, and if they follow it the others, he is supposed then to be guilty, notwithstanding the girl refused twico to accuse him. The feeling among the whites subsided quite a bit from Sunday night to Monday is no trace of any one the girl could be taken up. Much discontent caused many materials who were held by the would-be lynchers who stopped their cars and searched them. The race people in the district were much alarmed over the situation and much precaution was taken by many to protect themselves and family, and seized their houses were entered into and seized. All of the com-monwealth was set aside by the mob which was enraged by its desire for human flesh. ORGANIZE TRUST AND LOAN COMPANY Spartansburg, S.

It's knowing that you have a system for saving and can live up to it. It takes nerve—to spend less than you earn—but the confidence in yourself which a growing bank account gives you more than pays you for the sacrifice. Fear of the "bread and butter problem" makes a man weak—every dollar you can put into a savings account lessens the fear and simplifies the problem. And the earlier you start such an account the sooner is the problem solved, the burden removed and the confidence in yourself firmly established. We are opening accounts every day.

WOMAN'S DAY AT EMANUEL Last Sunday, Dr. Hunter used the text in Micah 6:8, which is the heart of the passage of Scripture used by President Harding in taking the oath of office March 4th.

SATURDAY, MARCH 12, 1921 HAFTIANS HERE TO PLEAD FOR FAIR PLAY It is an interesting fact that two distinguished Haitians have come to this country for the purpose of laying before the President and the Congress the conduct of American affairs by Americans in Haiti. They are Former Haitian Minister at Washington H. P. Sannon and Stenio Vincent. They do not come as representatives of their country, but of the Patriotic Union of Port-au-Prince. What is needed to be established is, primarily, by what right is the American Government in control of the Haitian Government. Settle that question and it should be easy to fix responsibility for the conduct of the American Minister and the Fiscal Agent and the outrages of the American marines, some publication of whose high-handed methods has been made in this country, and also made the subject of an unsatisfactory investigation by the American Secretary of the Navy. Sabbling in the affairs of others is BARN CONTACT That's what they claim can now be done. We lay claim to your patronage because we strive for your complete satisfaction.

These confiscated lands and extorted indemnities are so much real values, and offset by so much the actual losses of those who participate in the division. The suggestion that the United States cancel its loans to the Allies and that Great Britain would do in like manner, does not appeal to the thoughtful American, who is now paying interest on war borrowings that aggregate $24,000,000,000, ten billions of which were loaned to the Allies, while the loans of Great Britain to the Allies amount to $8,000,000,000, in view of the fact that the United States footed its own war expenditures and will not share in the division of the lands or the indemnities which fall to the share of the Allies. If we should give them the ten billions they owe us we should still have fourteen billions of debt on which to pay in- terest, the principal to be paid at the end of the life of the bonded indebtedness. If Germany is considered able by the Allies to relinguish to them all of its colonies, and some of its home territory, and to pay a money indemnity of $56,000,000,000, in forty-two annual installments, it seems to us that Great Britain, France and Belgium ought to be able to pay us the ten billion they owe us, with interest, in forty-two annual installments. The World War not only made beggars and vagabonds of a large part of the Christian population of Europe, but it made beggars of their Christian Governments, Luciifer and his hosts could have fallen no lower in economic morals than that. Personnel of the Inter-Racial Committee Announced The Inter-Racial Commission of this city was recently announced by Mr. S. D. Spady, State Secretary of the Colored Men's Department, with headquarters in Richmond. The object of the commission is to get more cooperation between the races. A meeting was held March 2ed, at the Queen Street Branch Y. M. C. A., which was well attended. The following men make up the commission: Mayor A. L. Roper, Dr. Southgate Leigh, Mr. Herbert Cockran, Dr. Schenck, and Admiral Dillingham approve of the work and program of the Inter-Racial Commission, and will be members of the Norfolk Committee. The colored members are: Rev. C. P. Madison Rev. R. H. Bowling, Dr. D. W. Byrd, Dr. F. R. Trigg, Mr. P. B. Young' Mr. C. C. Dogan, Mr. William M. Rich, Rev. D. F. White, Prof. D. G. Jacox, Dr. G. H.

BUSINESS BREVITIES lowin The Journal and Guide has asked tuece, me to discover the many and various field business enterprises operated by color- and ced Norfolkians, and present them to The thousands of readers of The Jour- nal and Guide, through this column dany under the above title. Therefore, each week until the list is completed we shall present from two to four dif- C. SINGLETON Mr. Singleton represents the average business man in soome respects, while in others he is above the average and should therefore be an inspiration to others. About ten years ago he began soliciting readers for gathering or memoirs and friends who The Chicago Defender. He was working at a local hotel at that time and only gave his spare time to his sideway "My service." In eight years he had built up a list of 1,700 subscribers. This gave him an inspiration and a new vision. He resigned his position and launched out for himself in December, 1918, in a small store room in the 300 block on Queen street. Since then he ran his with week and put in a complete line of magazines and newspapers, both daily office and weekly. He is one of the largest quarer leaders selling the Journal and Guide man in Norfolk. There are two colored the schools near Mr. Singleton and with his congenial service has built up quite a formidable patronage with these over with school children. To fill this de- pand Mr. Singleton orders them by the barrel, yen barrels for his small- roset order was ten barrels. His stock is composed of newspapers, magazines, riett candies, pickles, cigars and a few other notions. Soft drinks and ice cream two years that he has been in his present location Mr. Singleton has made progress and has become a fixture in the business life of Queen street, and is undoubtedly one of the best known men in the city. For a small business Mr. Singleton has one of the best in the city. Having an idea and prosecuting it has brought him telling success. E. B. TUCKER Starting in 1910 at Titustown, a colored settlement about four miles from Norfolk, Mr. E. B. Tucker launched his business career. Finding Norfolk outgrowing Titustown, he came here and opened a small place in the 1100 block on Church street, with Mr. R. F. Ethridge. They put in a total sum of about $60.00 and opened for business in 1915. Mr. Ethridge soon sold out to Mr. Tucker and later he took in another partner, this running for about a year and Mr. Tucker took over his interest. "Tucker's Place" has become famous on Church street. He sells fruits, ice cream, newspapers and magazines, cigars, soft drinks, cakes and pies. For the first three and a half years he was in a very small room. His business grew so that he was forced to remodel. In order to fix up the place according to the demands of his trade he purchased the lot and building so that all improvement would be permanent and enhance the value of his own property. Now he has the most spacious dining room for the serving of ice cream and cold drinks that is to be found in the city. He has built up a permanent patronage among the high school students and finds his school trade demands pickle, pie, cake and buttermilk. Mr. Tucker handles about 2,000 papers a week besides the magazines and fiction books. He is a big dealer in The Journal and Guide. His volume of business was about $25,000.00 last year; not bad for a man that started with a capital of $60.00. He has stock and fixtures that will in voice around three thousand dollars. His force comprises from four to six persons all the time and his hours are practically all of the waking hours for the citizens of Norfolk from seven a.m. to twelve and one at night. Mr. Tucker's chief assist ant is found in his wife who is constantly on duty giving her personal supervision. "Tucker's place" has won its name because of an honorable business conducted in the spirit of service. Mr. Tucker has won by perseverance and besides the proprietorship of the business bearing his name be is a stockholder and director of the Brown Savings and Banking Co., the Twin City Amusement Corporation and other corporate enterprises. THE BUSINESS BAROMETER What men engaged in business and allied activities say is a pretty good index to the state of things economically, industrially and otherwise. In keeping with its policy of keeping in touch with the public pulse a member of the editorial staff of the JOURNAL AND GUIDE will interview during the next few weeks business and professional men, labor leaders and others with the view of notting their opinions on the general situation. On his first rounds, our representative did not find anybody singing the "Business Blues." To the two men to whom he put the question, "How's business?" he got the following replies: By GORDON TAYLOR Groovy I have noted a slight improvement in business, bring the past week or so. It appears to me that there is less idleness among the masses. I also note a disposition among people to buy with more discretion, showing that they are taking seriously to the thrift idea. By S. B. NOBLE. Superintendent of Northern Aid Society and President of Union Commercial Bank (organizing). You asked me my opinion relative to the outlook for insurance and banking business during the coming year. You are cognizant as well as I of the fact that I never have been a superman and dare not venture a super-opinion, therefore, anything said by me must be taken as the opinion of a very normal individual speaking as one within the ranks and not as one who has reached the top-most pinnacle. I have never seen a brighter outlook for insurance business than the months which are directly before us. Our records show that we are doing more business in March, 1921, than we did in March, 1920, and we did three times as much business in March 1920 as had been done in any other month in the history of the company. We have endeavored to give Norfolk a well-trained and efficient agency force, competent both by experience and training to render service to the great mass of people that has honored us with membership. It is true that we have been paying thousands of dollars a week, accident and death chains; in fact, we have been simply pouring out our funds to the people of Norfolk, demonstrating to them that we are in a financial position to meet any demands which may be upon us and the people are rewarding us abundantly by joining daily. We expect to average for the next year months 300 new members weekly. Any one looking for "Hard Times" surely will not find them in the Southern Aid building. You will find money on the first floor in the building, prosperity on the second, and protection on the third—you might look in the basement as we never look downward, our eyes are ever forward. The outlook for the banking business is indeed promising for our group; people have started to mobilize. Most of our group banks during the past few months, but few have been mobilizing. The masses of our people have started to catch-up their payments on Christmas savings and launch out on the road to thrift. Both of the banks representing our group have rendered excellent service to the community and demonstrated that the old doctrine about "your gain is my loss" and that "my loss is your gain" is a fallacy. The doctrine of the Union Commercial Bank is "your gain is our gain" and "your loss is our loss." "Times" are what you think they are—if you think "hard times" you will have "hard times"—if you think "good times" you will have "good times" You are appreciative of the past, encouraged with the present and are looking to the future with but one object in view—SUCCESS. Washington Crowded With Office Seekers (continued from page 1) The National Memorial Association F. D. Loe, president, James H. W. Howard, financial secretary, and Mrs. Julia Mason, corresponding secretary, held a largely attended meeting at the office of the Association, when prominent colored men, appointed by the Governors of the various States were present and outlined plans for getting the new administration interested in its work. Among some of the noted men present may be mentioned R. W. Westberry, Sumter, S. C.; J. D. Crenshaw, Tenn.; J. Silas Harris, and Dr. J. R. A. Crossland, St. Joseph, Mo.; Dr. E. C. Morris, Arkansas; I. F. Norris, Seattle, Wash.; Dr. J. A. Callis, Illinois; M. O. Ornes, Kansas, and J. Thomas Hewin, of Richmond, Va. These men brought new life to the Association and plan to work as never before to have erected in Washington a suitable memorial building in honor of the colored soldiers and sailors who participated in all the Nation's wars. During the week-end, February 26, 1921, a total of one hundred and fifty-nine deaths were registered in the District of Columbia. Of this number one hundred and nine, wore white and fifty colored. The births for the same period numbered one hundred and thirty-seven for white and sixty-four for the colored, or a total of two hundred and one. The prominent causes of death and the number of fatalities attributed to each cause were pneumonia, 23 deaths; organic heart disease, 20; Bright's disease, 15; tuberculosis, 14. Under treatment at the close of this report were 3,000 tuberculosis cases. It has become known here that Bert Williams, the celebrated comedian, has signed a three-year contract with A. H. Woods and will be started next season in a musical play by Wallace NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE DeLeon, styled "The Pink Slip." The Billy King Players still went big at the Howard Theatre, record-breaking crowds being in attendance at each performance. Even the midnight show on Imaguration night, when everybody really wanted to sleep, was packed. Seven vaudeville acts were presented. The Hiawatha, the Dumbar, the Foraker, the Dudley and the Jewel, especially the last named, presented for the lovers of the screen, pictures of the highest order. The Jewel showed several highclass first releases. The white people had only one ball, which, of course, was semi-official. The colored people have had four big balls and twice as many small ones, and several more are to follow. The most important and the best attended was perhaps that given by the Oldest inhabitants (colored), while the Citizens' was a close second. The local branch of the National Negro Press Association held a carnival, where fun ran riot. The Masonic fraternity also danced, for the purpose of raising money to erect a temple. It will fill a long felt want in this particular, and it must be admitted that the Masons are far behind in this particular, as most of the other organizations have suitable meeting places, more centrally located. The local branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People held a well attended meeting at which much enthusiasm was evidenced in the proposed drive to increase the membership of the Association. Reports of the local branch show that it has not been asleep in looking after the interest of the colored people generally, and although the membership for 1920 was considerably lower than that of 1919, those interested in the work here have pledged to make a supreme effort to get even more than they had previously enrolled. There is much here that the Association can do, and it is hoped that every colored man and woman will become identified with it. Efforts will be made to have each Fraternal society and lodge join with the Association in making it cover more ground. Much interest centers in the possible eight "fat jobs" that are to be given out to the colored men who have figured so largely in the success of the Grand Old Party. There are candidates and candidates, and there seems to be much division where there should be union. One man here from the middle west for some time, and active in the educational world, says that he is sure to be made Register of the Treasury. But they have (or at least he has) left women out of the reckoning, for it leaks out that several male candidates are not pleasing to the Woman's Organization, and several women have made known their intention of going to headquarters, and there block the men's move. Reformatory for Boys in North Carolina Negro to membership, also Jews and Catholics." He said "We stand for womanhood and white supremacy." The writer although engaged in work twenty-five miles away from the city, noted hard to reach the city for the purpose of hearing what the chief of this disguised secret, organization had to say as an explanation of the existence of the Klan. The speaker asked the press not to publish his name, but his title only, which was too much for your scribe to remember. About 200 persons including about 200 colored men, were present. Notwithstanding invitations had been sent to all the State officials as well as county, only one official was present and he is the county recorder. Nothing further has been heard about this Klan since the meeting held in the city auditorium. The three story brick building now being erected by the Lightner Bros. in this city is 80 by 200 feet and will be ready for occupancy late in the summer. The first floor will contain four store rooms and a theatre in the rear. The second and third floors will be used as a hotel and office rooms. President Russell of the Twin City Amusement Corporation, Norfolk, and President P. B. Young, of the Tidewater Bank and Trust Company, were visitors in this city last week. Miss Mamie Hill has been appointed County Health Nurse to visit and inspect all color children attending the public schools in Take County. Miss Hill is a graduate nurse, highly educated and will be doubtless valuable service to the colored school children throughout the county. Miss Hill has an automobile and can visit any school within a radius of twenty miles of Raleigh and return the same day. Thos. Hill, brother-in-law of the writer, died February 26th, and was buried February 28. Dr. N. F. Roberts officiated when the funeral ceremonies took place in the First Baptist church and the remains laid to rest in Mount Hope cemetery. As a token of the esteem in which the deceased was held by many of his friends, they covered his grave with beautiful floral offerings. Dr. J. E. Shepherd, State Grand Master of Masons, has appointed Prof. W. G. Pearson of Durham, Grand Endowment Secretary to take the position held by Col. James H. Young, for a long number of years and on account of ill health tendered his resignation to the Grand Lodge while in session at Durham, last December. Dr. Shepherd, the newly elected Grand Master, requested Col. Young to withhold his resignation until March 1st, Dr. Shepherd has called a meeting of the Endowment Board to convene in this city March 7th, when Col. Young will turn over to the newly appointed Grand Endowment Secretary $40,000. Dr. Shepherd has issued a circular letter to the Masonic fraternity expressing his appreciation of the valuable services he (Col. Young) has rendered to the Masonic fraternity for a long number of years both as Grand Master and Grand Endowment Secretary. Dr. Charles Francis Meserve, president Emeritus, Shaw University, with his wife and daughter, are in the city after spending several months in the State of Arizona. Late in the Spring Dr. Meserve will return to his home in the State of Maine. Prof. J. W. Johnson, supervisor of the colored State School for deaf, dumb and blind is very jubilant over the increased appropriation the State Legislature made for his institution, $130,000 annually for two years to come. Prof. Johnson informed the writer that his pupils are making splendid headway in all lines of industry; such as carpentry, shoe repairing, mattress making and chair bottoming, sewing, crocheting, cooking, and other industries.

ADVISES SOUTH TO USE EXTREME WISDOM (By The Associated Negro Press) Macon, Ga., March 7- "The Negro Question in the South" was the topic of a lecture delivered by Walter B. Hill to the student body and faculty of Mercer University last Wednesday morning. Mr. Hill advised moderation in dealing with the question and declared that the South must use extreme wisdom in its effort to fix an equable adjustment of the matter. The lecture was well received. pentry are employed at good salaries in building the houses on the plot recently purchased for the home of the white blind children of this State. The writer learns that Dr. R. R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee School, Alabama, will visit Raleigh during the latter part of this month and address the people here and at other places in the county.

He was a very obedient child, and developed a very good moral and religious character, having been converted at the age of 8 years.

When the World's War was declared he entered military training camp at the school and did clerical work. His health broke down while he was in the Service, from which he never recovered. He was very patient in his affliction, though he fougnt it bravely. He was perfectly resigned to his fate, and God's will when the end came. We feel that our loss is heaven's gain. Peace be to his ashes. We hereby extend our thanks of gratitude to the friends of Martinsville, Va., and elsewhere for their courtesy extended me in the sad hour of bereavement, and also thank Mr. Allen Washington, of Hampton Institute, Va., for his courtesy in sending two young men to witness his catages and to represent the school.

What is meant by the word “1M- MORTAL"? A definition: (Latin, immortatis; prelix, im- not, plus mortalis, mortal.) 1. Not mortal; exempt from lia- hitity to die. 2. Connected with, or pertaining, to IMMORTALITY. 3. Destined to tive in all ages of this world; exempt from oblivion. WHAT. SOFVER THEN, IS IMMORTAL, IS ALSO eternal, everlasting; never. ending; ceaseless; perpetual; eontin- ‘ual; enduring; endless; imperishable; incoruptable; deathless and undying. in the day thow eatest thereof, thou shalt surely dic.) —Jeheovih, PTE we will take the pains to find the meanings of the terms “MOR. TAL” and “IMMORTAL”, we would not have erroneous views of subjects with which they stand connected, in general and in Scriptural usaise: “MORTALITY” significs a state of condition of Tiability to death; not a condition of death, tut a condition in Wwitich death is a poscbility. | IMMORTALITY" signities a state or condition uat lintle to death; not merely a condition of freedom from death, but x condition in which death is an impossibility. ‘There is a schoo! of thought which defines. MORTAL. ITY as a state or condition in which death is unavoidable. ‘This definition ‘is radieully wrong and confuses all who necept it when they try to de- termine whether Adam was mortal of immortal before his transgression. | Now, to state the case correctly: ADAM WAS MORTAL BEFORE IS TRANSGRESSION OR FALL. That is to say that ADAM was creat. ed it a state and condition in which death was a possibility, and not in state or condition in which death was unavoidable. adam had life in full and perfect measure, yet not inherent life. Adam's life was sustained by every tree of the garden save the one tree for hidden: “AND THE LORD GOD ‘COMMANDED TIE MAN, SAY. SEARCH 12, 1921 ——— ING, OF EVERY TREE OF TUR GARDEN THOU MAYEST FREL- LY EAT; BUT OF THE “TREB OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL” THOU SHALT NOT BAT OF IT: FOR IN THE DAY THAT THOU EATEST THEREOP THOU SHALT SURELY DIB2"—Gen, 2: 16-17. Hence, we find that Adam did not have to die because he was mortal, but because having every tree in the garden to eat, and all of them life- sustaining, HE ELECTED TO BAT OF THE ONE TREE FORBIDDEN ITM, BEING INFORMED BEFORE HE DID SO, THAT IF HE DID BE WOULD DIE. WE FIND, THEN, THAT ADAM COULD WAVE LIVED FOREVER, THOUGH MOR- TAL, BUT DIED BECAUSE HE WANTED TO THROUGH MIS DIS- OREDIENCE.

Miss Lyford said: "Training in home-making is the fundamental need for the girls and the women of the Negro race.

So much of your beauty and youthful appearance depend on the hair, that every care should be given to it. teachers with a wider vision, more thorough training, and more painstaking industry—teachers with the ability to fit Negro women to do their part in the betterment of community life. The small cottage, similar in type to that in which the local Negro lives, must be provided at the school in order to furnish opportunity for the practice of housework according to the best modern methods and to instill a love for the well-kept home. "Training in home-making must not be limited to the young people in the schools, if improved home conditions are to be realized within a generation. Extension classes in home-making for housewives and continuation classes for industrial workers must also be provided." Signs of Great Progress Miss Lyford outlined the operating of the Negro Organization Society of Virginia for securing "better health, better schools, better homes, and better farms"; the awakening of 12,000,000 colored people to the "need of more sanitary methods of living, more faithful school attendance, a higher standard of homemaking, and a greater self-respect"; the uplifting of community standards through efficient and consecrated Negro rural life. She said: "Encouraging signs of improved conditions are already to be seen in the home life of the Negro in many parts of the South. If good homes continue to increase in number, the next generation of colored youth will be of increasingly higher type and better fitted to meet the demands of modern life. So vital is the improvement of the Negro homes, one can almost prophesy that the other factors that are necessary to race progress and to national development will readily follow. It would be well, if every teacher of home-making in the Negro school could feel her teaching to be thus vital and could work with the inspiration that such an appreciation of her task would be sure to bring.

Social and industrial life must be developed from every angle. Community spirit, public health, a progressive educational policy, a competent group of industrial workers, well-trained business and professional men, and the possession and development of property all these elements have their contribution to make to the strengthening of home life. "The training of teachers for the Negro schools is a matter of serious import. All teachers must be made to feel that teaching people how to live is the most important work to be done and that for all women teachers some fundamental training in homemaking is essential. Normal courses must be well planned and thorough and must include practice in the household arts under conditions as nearly comparable to normal home life as possible. The teacher must keep very closely in touch with the home and with all the interests of home-makers. The normal school can make a beginning in the training of teachers for so wide a responsibility by awakening in them the sense of need for continued growth and development. "Extension classes in home-making for the Negro women who are beyond school age, or who must early leave school to earn a livelihood, have begun to prove a valuable means of improving home conditions and of securing for the schools the support that they need. Through extension classes better sanitary conditions can be secured, the production of home supplies can be stimulated, wholesome competition in the skillful performance of the household arts can be fostered and instruction can be given in the feeding of the family. Such extension courses are a necessary corollary to the successful teaching of home-making in the schools, that teachers may have the support and sympathy of the parents in their work. "Among the colored girls the proportion that marries is high, and as a usual thing they marry while very young, so that for the most part Negro women have the home to care for even when they are engaged in gainful employment. For married women employed in industry it is especially important to have an appreciation of the essential food facts, to understand household sanitation and the hygiene of dress, to be informed as to market conditions, and to know how to regulate the family budget so as to secure the maximum NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE of satisfaction for all. Courses in the care and feeding of babies and of young children should have a place in the courses in home-making for all women. Such courses should have a particularly prominent place in these continuation classes." Race Literature In Race Schools Leading educators of both races in the South are interested in the plan of strengthening racial integrity by teaching the children something of the history and achievements of their own race. The main obstacle to such a course has been a lack of books suitable for school children of grammar grades. Harcourt, Brace & Howe have just published a book of this kind—The Upward Path, compiled by Mary White Ovington and Myron T. Pritchard, with an introduction by R. R. Moton, of Tuskegee Institute. Fifty Negro authors are represented, with biographical notes of each. The quality and tone of the selections are excellent; and some of the names stand high with white lovers of good literature. Dr. Kerlin, secretary of the Virginia Society for the Study of Education, says of the book: "Its use in Negro schools would greatly contribute to the development of that character in the Negro which we of the white race have so often expressed a desire to see. It is to be hoped that State boards of education will take this view of the matter, and will place this reader in the hands of colored school children as a prescribed book. It would be an act of justice as well as of grace that would do much toward promoting inter-racial good-will." The North Carolina department of education has put one book of Negro authorship—Up From Slvery, by Booker T. Washington—on the list of books recommended for reading by high school students of both races. A class in a white high school felt, on reading it, that they had gained a broader and more sympathetic view of Negro life. Both this book and Dr. Moton's autobiography, "Finding A Way Out," will promote good understanding between the races. Negro students need such books for the kindling of worthy racial ideals. White students would find in them, beyond this racial quality, that broader appeal to the common human basis of all racial life which must be understood before inter-racial peace can be assured. "IS THERE SUCH A POSSIBILITY AS THE NATURAL IMMORTALITY OF THE HUMAN SOUL?" THOU SHALT SURELY DIE." This sentence and curse fell upon all of his children: "The first man Adam was made a living soul (Not made having a soul), but being made a living soul. (1 Cor. 15:45.) ANGELS ARE NOT IMMORTAL (2 Pet. 2:4). For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hades (a state or condition of death) and delivered them into chains of darkness to be reserved into judgment, etc., what authority do we have for the doctrine of the "immortality of the soul"? (a) Satan (the adversary of God), (Gen. 3:4): "And the serpent (the devil, Satan) said unto the woman, "Ye shall not surely die." (b) Plato (a pagan philosopher and student of Socrates, a Greekian pagan philosopher who had no positive knowledge of the true God. (c) The Pagan (without knowledge of the true God) empires of Greece and Rome. (d) And, lastly, Apostate Churchianity, which calls itself (falsely) Christianity and Chrissendom, meaning that it is the Kingdom of Christ. This alleged Kingdom of Christ (Chrissendom). Christ repudiates himself in the following words: "I know thy works, that thou are neither cold nor hot; I would thou wert cold or hot. oS then, because thou are lukewarm and neither cold nor hot. I WOULD SPUE THEE OUT OF MY MOUTH" (Rev. 3:15-16). The question, then, resolves itself into a simple one of verasity with God, the creator of the Heaven and the Earth, saying to Adam, "In the day thou eatest thereof, thou shalt surely die." (A positive declaration from the Holy mouth of God against the immortality of the human soul), on the one hand, and on the other hand, Satan (the adversary of God), and Plato, (the Pagan), the Pagan Empire of Greece, the Pagan Empire of Rome and Apostate Churchianity, saying to the woman "Ye shall not surely die," (which is a positive declaration of the immortality of the human soul). Since then, as I have stated, that the question resolves itself into one of verasity between God, Satan, Plato, Pagan Greece, Pagan Rome and Apostate Churchianity: WHICH OF THEM SHOULD WE BELIEVE? (1 Kings 18:21) "And Elijah came unto all the people and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? If the Lord be God, follow him; but if Baal, follow him." The one and only possibility for the "Natural Immortality of the Human Soul" was lost in the transgression of Adam: "In Adam all died." We are now prepared to prove, that, because of Adam's sin God resorted to heroic measures which forever made the attainment of "the Natural Immortality of the Human Soul" an eternal impossibility. Here, then, is the proof for that which is above asserted: (Gen, 3:22, 23, 24) "And the Lord God said, 'Behold the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil; and now, lest he put forth his hand and take also of the Tree of Life and cat," and live forever. Therefore, the Lord God sent him forth from the Garden of Eden to till the ground from whence he was taken. So he (Lord God) drove out the man, and He placed at the east of the Garden of Eden, Cherubim, and a flaming sword which turned every way "to keep the way of the tree of life" (immortality). Why, then, was Adam driven out of the Garden? God answers you, Satan, and you, Plato: "Lost he (man) put forth his hand, and take also of the Tree of Life, and eat, and live forever," (become immoral, acquire natural immortality of soul). The placing of Cherubims with flaming swords proves that God through heroic measures erected between man and immortality barriers unmoveable and insurmountable. (Job 14:5) "Seeing his days are determined, the numbers of his months are with thee; thou hast appointed his bounds (his mortality) that he cannot pass" (through any process of human attainment from a state of Mortality, which he brought upon himself, to a state of Immortality, a right forfeited in his fall). Did the fall of man elevate or degrade him? Satan says, "Thou shalt not surely die." In other words: "Falling will bring you Immortality." Plato concurs with Satan in his (Satan's) statement of attaining Immortality by falling. Now, if Satan and Plato are correct in their findings (That is to say, that if in falling Adam attained immortality of soul, we must confess then that the fall of man elevated him. For immortality is the highest form of glorified existence (inherent life). From Satan and Plato, we learn therefore, that since the transgression and fall of Adam, man has become a self existent being, un-ending, imperishable or inward, by falling man made of himself a JEHOVAH. Good for man. He is some wonderful (j-e-h-o-v-a-h). Satan has spoken for himself and so has Plato. Now, let us be fair and let God speak for himself. Satan has never made a single soul in all of his existence and never will. He therefore knows nothing about the soul. Plato has never made a soul of any kind, and he never will. Let us hear God. Perhaps he knows whether man was elevated or degraded through his fall. (Ecclesiastes 3: 18, 19, 20) "I said in my heart concerning the estate of (state or condition) the sons of men, that God might manifest them and that they might see that they themselves are beasts. For that which befalleth the sons of men (death, mortality) befalleth beasts; ven one thing (death) befalleth them, as the one dieth, so dieth the other: ye, they all one breath (in the Hebrew language, "ruaach"). Spirit of Life) so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all is vanity. All go into one place; all are of the dust and turn to dust again." Satan and Plato say that man through his fall was elevated to the position and dignity of Jehovah. God says that man, through his fall, has Wash Your Scientists have proven and doctors are such as RHEUMATISM, GOUT, and all skin affections are due to impurities our first duty is to drive out all impurities the best way to do this is by washing your Young's 258 This W Blood B For Sale at All Drug It is also very important to keep you purpose we recommend Brown those little chocolate-coated, purely vegetable busy.

She has a very good voice and plays her part well. Mme. Williams' selection, "Senora" proved beyond a doubt that she has a voice of rare quality. Her voice and song will always be welcomed in Norfolk. TWO TROTTES MACK AND MACK The dancing of Miss Olivia Zalatte is of the highest class seen anywhere by anyone. She has mastered the movements of this oriental form that is so popular today. The costumes and dancing of the chorus girls cannot be praised too highly. Mr. Williams has proven beyond a doubt that a real high class show can be maintained by the right kind of management. He deserves much credit for the work of his company. Those who have not as yet seen this show, should not let the opportunity slip them. This is the best balanced show yet to play here. BROADWAY RASTUS ALL NEXT WEEK It is truly a "musical joy-ride from Georgia to Broadway" largely by way of the "dirt road", with Irvin C. Miller and Emmett Anthony featuring in some of the most humorous situations that have possibly appeared in stagecraft in many a season. Supporting them in a thousand and one other attractive features, which give balance and poise to the program are such noted performers as Ida Brown, Anita Wilkins, Mildred Smallwood, Lena Loggett, Ernest Whitman, William E. Fontaine, Ferdio Robinson and others, and a beauty chorus of shimmy girls hard to duplicate anywhere on the American stage today, and whose great work is a strong factor in the splendid success of the show. A. MISS LENA LEGGETT From the moment the members of the company enter the stage through a plug in the giant watermelon scene suspended in the rear of the stage, singing "Good-bye Watermelon Days" until Broadway Rastus comes into his own on Broadway in New York, and dances before the girl who spurned him in the days of his "poverty" and "country surroundings" many years before, there is not a dull moment and the audience is kept convulsed with Laughter and expectant joy as the comedians pull their comical stuff and the song-birds pep forth their entrancing notes, when even restrained silence is a great source of enjoyment.

Then on down the road further as they tumble upon a bakershop "In Old Virginia" in the moment of their extreme hunger when a leaf of bread has more charm than the prettiest "brown" in Virginia, or the contents of a fat pocket book, or the whirl and excitement of a congested thoroughfare. Say, boys, have you been as hungry as that? Gee, but this is a scream. Then you wouldn't miss seeing those hungry at the circus ground, where they secure a job in the band and take on new life after several days of "three hots per." They are also impressed with the chorus girls. Just see these and you cannot regret the price of admission. Of course there are many other side-splitting situations but you should hear "Gang" sing "The Dog," Ida Brown, "Come Back To Me, Daddy," and "The Baby Blues," Anita Wilkins, "When Honey Sings An Old Time Song"; Lena Lergett in song and comedy; Ernest R. Whitman in his song and confidential stage dope; William E. Fontaine and Ida Brown in "Good Night, My Dear"; as well as the Apache following the Joy-Spot Cabaret act. Probably the greatest hit of the show is the toe dancing of Mildred Smallwood, a recently added feature. This is a decidedly attractive act and Miss Smallwood easily dances herself into the good graces of her audience. She is seen again to advantage in a classic dance with Mr. Miller. All things summed up, it is an Irvin C. Miller production, and is due to be good. Atlanta, Ga., March 6.—A hotel building was dynamited and a fire, believed to be of incendiary origin, leveled to the ground the cotton ginnery of R. E.
