COLORED WOMAN GETS $20,000,000 ESTATE Tucker Appeals to Race Hatred To Win Governorship RIVALS MORRISON OF NORTH CAROLINA IN HIS PROPAGANDA His "Back To The Constitution" Slogan Means Revival of Race Issue and Repression of the Negro. Opposes Federal Educational System Because It Might Benefit Race. FIRST IN LIVE NEWS ALL THE TIME VOL. XXI. NO.20 COLOR Tucker A RIVALS MORR NORTH CA HIS PR His "Back To The Const Revival of Race Issue Negro. Opposes Feder Because It Might Benet Bachman, Va.—Harry St. George Township, for Governor of Virginia, in an address delivered in this city Saturday night, rivaled Governor Morrison of North Carolina, with his antithesis in the assault against the proposed Federal educational bill, the bill to regulate the Jip Grow Law, the state Lynch law bill and other measures. The measures might be a direct benefit to the race. He gives us a reason to his slogan "back to the Constitution," his opposition to the civic battle work of the defenseless black man. Opposes Federal Educational System He is quite possible that Mr. Tucker is intelligent enough to know that there is no danger of mixed schools in Virginia through Federal education, but he said: "If these bills are passed and our government gives me a regulate education in Virginia, then we may expect to see what is in vogue in many Northern States, dear little colored children going to the same classes with the sweet little white children." Opposes Uniform Divorce Laws Mr. Tucker, made another 'absurd' association, jargarding, uniform divorce laws. This would mean Federal regulation of marriage and make it possible to abolish the law which forbids marriage between white and blacks in Virginia. Jim Crow Law in Danger "Some one has introduced into Congress a bill to give the Federal Government power to regulate the Jim Crow law. It must be contended: "I mean that the only way to prevent the passage of such an intuitive law is to appeal to the Constitution of the country, which guarantees that the government should Consider for a moment what this means. If the Federal Government shall assume the 'power of forcing the whites and blacks to occupy the same space' of the land, the same power will justify a bill by Congress requiring the State of Virginia to educate its white and black children in the same schools. Could disastrous time come? If so, the school problem of the State might be easier of solution than now, for, unless the spirit of Virginia has changed, no Legislature would be able to form such a school system in Virginia. And so with the law giving Congress the control of lynching. Lynchings is murder. Murder is an offense kill a man it is no offense against the law of the United States, unless the act be committed in the District of Columbia, or on the high sors, or within one of the reservations of the United States to take a man into a court to try him under the power of the United States, whose law he has no broken. A man that commits murder in Pennsylvania and escapes to Virginia and is caught can't be tried in Virginia because he may be taken to jail if this bill becomes a law, the man may be taken from the jurisdiction whose law he has violated, and tried by a court of another jurisdiction. People confess not to know what I mean by 'Back to the Constitution.'" WILL ENFORCE SEGREGATION IN STATE PRISON (descaled to Norfolk Journal and Guide) Richmond, Va.—The board of directors of the State Penitentiary on general inspection and investigation of conditions at the prison last week found that the resolution adopted June 15, 2014, of white and colored prisoners in State institutions was not being enforced and provision will be made for the enforcement of the same. The prisoners are already eating in separate dining halls and rumor has it that white prisoners are being held in white prisoners and the new ruling than the colored. Harry St. George Tucker, candidate for Governor, strongly advocates prison segregation. Colored Physician Gives Building to College (Special to Norfolk Journal and Guide) J. W. Anderson, n colored physician D. Dallas, Texas, and a graduate of Mary Washington College. has given his alma mater a small but first-class building-to be used for ana- tical work. Norfolk Journal and Guide PREJUDICE RAMPANT IN WASHINGTON Washington, D. C., May 5 "Sure, I must fight, if I would win, increase my courage, Lord," is a couple of song and prayer that Colored Americans may well pin to the must head of the Ship of Progress. "The Rebels are comonest to the war fact they have not left, Washington, and thereby hang the tale. As stated by The Associated Negro Press in previous correspondence the disposition of the Administration is to be fair and just. Only two months old, the Rebels have a firm grip. The Democrats are dying hard, and they are fighting. It has been maintained by many that if the Republicans would show just half the fighting spirit that the Democrats show in things they believe in, the millicenium would soon come. The Republicans have hundreds and tens of thousands of employees from every section of the South, city and backwords, sipping the nectar of governmental ease and greenbacks for eight years; then comprehend, if you will, that inmate hatred of Negro progress, and political preference, and you have a definite picture in testimony of fairness up there" up have not all been plucked as yet, and they are as busy as hornets, and have a sting just as poisonous. Take the Department of the Auditor for the Navy, a number of the white clerks having learned that there may be a possibility of a colored American again being appointed to this position, they too, Brute, having bestirred themselves in the form of a petition "requesting and urging that a Negro he not appointed." The first petition, with 165 names, almost ready to turn over to the "Powers that be," suddenly dispatched but there are those who it will rise to so free the accusers or accursed at the time. A second petition is being prepared. AN AMAZING DISCOVERY The Asso. Negro Press, through a system of unquestioned reliability and backed up by sworn affidavits, has discovered a conspiracy of racial prejudice that is truly alarming. The general public is asked to look into these matters carefully, and to weigh the charges cautiously. The conspiracy is not fostered by the Administration, nor any member of the cabinet to be held accountable to remnants of Democratic hold-overs are doing their worst to embarrass the Administration, and to hold back American applications. The Associated Negro Press has written a communication, giving detailed instances of prejudices and discrimination, in one of the biggest departments of the government, and the letter has been sent to the cabinet member who is the head of that department. He is the chair of the department been received and it is known that the charges are being thoroughly investigated. It is known that the southern Democratic chief clerk has been called on the carpet about the matter, and he has sought to secure a clean bill of health from the Colored employees, and these unstanding Americans are退去 to give to the sootherher solace. The police have been secured since the first letter was sent, and if there is a disposition to whitewash the charges, more evidence will be produced. REGARDING APPOINTMENTS Regarding the subject of appointments, some have even tended to say that the administration cannot cold feet. But this cannot be verified. There are certain conditions obtaining, and if these are stated, the public may reach conclusions with as much assurance as the veriest politician or correspondent. The New York World Democrat, in its Washington corres- NORFOLK, VA., SATURDAY, MAY 7, 1921 White Ministers Would Not Help Check Ku Klux (Special to Norfolk Journal and Guide Daville, Va., May 5.—The colored ministers of the city last week made an appeal to the city legislature to assist them in the prevention of an organization of a local branch of the Ku Klux Klan in this city which is being organized by the Ku Klux Klan from Atlanta, Ga. The colored ministers have seen formally notified by the white ministers that they would oppose the suppression of the organization of the Klan. While the white ministers refused to give reasons for their refusal, it is unreasonable to suppose the officers of the white union opposed the stand taken by the body. pondence recently, called attention to the fact that up to date no Presidential appointment has been made. The appointments of Liat. Flipper, by Secretary Fall, and of Phil H. Brown, by Secretary Davis, may be termed "personal" and do not require Senate confirmation. President Harding has adopted a policy of permitting the cabinet to appoint a person of large measure. This relieves him of considerable detail, and worry. The World states that Charles W. Anderson has the strongest backing for his old position of Collector of the Port of New York, and that Colored people thru-out the United States have begun to wonder, in the matter of appointments, Why the delay. The answer is that the agenda is very perilous, and very insistent. It works while you sleep. It has caused one cabinet member to state that his mind is not fully made up concerning the appointment of a Colored American to a big place in his country. This is the establishment of a precedent. This man has always been known to be fair, the question is, is he weakener? Politics make strange bed-fellows, now as always. Governor Dorsey, Democrat, of Georgia, who is about to retire, denounces lynchings, peonage and calls for remediation in language West Virginia, forming a pocket between the North and the South, passes drastic lynch and civil rights laws, and Pennsylvania, keystone of the thirteenth original colonies and rock-ribbed Republican, falls fat on Civil Rights in the hour of need. The governor, in an international between the Presses and the Vare elements does not lighten the fall. The Cleveland Coll is authority for the report that Governor Harry Davis of Ohio is going to fail in the matter of appointing Colored Amer-icans. Later reports from Columbus, however, state that Gov. Davis will make good. BILLS IN CONGRESS The various measures introduced in Congress, bills against lynching, and bills for the formation of commissions of one kind and another are resting in the pigeon-holes of the respective judiciary committees, to which they have been referred. One of the best known members of Congress, a man who does not introduce any of these bills, but rather administers with their purport, said to the Associated Negro Press representatives, "The Associated Negro Press should call attention of the Colored people of America to the need of urging that these bills be brought up in committees. The Chairman of the judiciary represents the House of Representatives Andrew J. Chairman of the judiciary Committee of the Senate is Senator Knute Nelson. Write letters to these men, and write letters to your Congressmen and Senators and tell them what is wanted is action. Lynching must stop in this land. All organizations and newspapers should take action (this greatest of all fights for right, and the people must back up the newspapers and editors). There is the message, word for word. What are the people going to do about it?

C. C. Summerville. Will Greatly Aid In Securing Justice for Afro-Americans Accused of Crime (Special to Norfolk Journal and Guide) Raleigh, N. C. North Carolina's new anti-lynching bill is entitled "An Act to Promote the Due Administration of Justice and to Lessen the Crime of Lynching." It permits the judge violating the court in which an accused person was convicted of the case to another court without preliminary appearance of the defendant before him. Thus an accused person may be sent to a distant county for safekeeping but may remain there for unprejudiced trial without even a temporary return to the neighborhood of the alleged crime law will greatly aid in securing justice for those accused of serious crimes.

Was Not Recognized by White Father Who Sold Property Without Her Consent: Oil and Mineral Rights Go To Her. (Special to Norfolk Journal and Guide) New Orleans, La.—Through a decision rendered in the State Supreme Court, Mrs. Lillian Taylor, whose father, a white man, sold his twenty million dollar estate to Angeline Allen and George West, was awarded the oil and mineral rights in the property which is located in Claiborn Parish. After Mrs. Taylor had been ignored in the disposition of the property she brought suit through the courts with results the parentage of Mrs. Taylor was the chief of the case and the decision was rendered on this question, it being proven that she was the illegitimate daughter of the original owner of the property and the principal guarded Mrs. Taylor is today probably the richest colored woman in America. Pinkerton detectives to apprehend the forger, which was done. In spite of this evidence of regularity as to Bank procedure, and of honest intentions the government secret service agent undertook to frame charges of "conspiracy to defraud" against the young man. Upon hearing of the charges, Attorney Leon M. Bazile, of Richmond, assistant attorney general of the State, who has known Mr. Baker from myhood, volunteered his services to defend him and waived in court compliance in the part of the bank employees to do so when the trivial came up. Other prominent Richmond citizens were on hand to testify as characters among them, Mr. John T. Taylor, the Social Security Savings Bank and the Richmond Memorial Insurance Co., and Col Giles B. Jackson, Mr. S. P. Ryland COURT ORDERS ACQUITAL OF BANK MEN COURT ORDERS ACQUITAL OF BANK MEN No Evidence to Sustain Charges, Framed Against Tidewater Employees by Treasury Department Agent Ruling that there was no evidence to show intent to defraud, as charged in the indictment, Judge Edmund Wayard ordered the jury in the United States to Tuesday in acquit Messrs. G. W. C. Brown, H. H. Higg son and Edward A. Baker, charged by an agent of the treasury department with "conspiracy to defraud the government", in connection with a government forged upon Tidewater Bank and Tidewater Bay by one James Parker, who represented himself to be Edward Gordan. The trial ended rather abruptly, when, after assistant district attorney Miller had presented the case for the Taylor, of counsel for the defense, man- otion to quash the indictment on the grounds that there was no evidence to sustain it. Judge Waddell excused the jury and heard argument on the Taylor in support of it, and by which he to it; after which he sustained the motion, recalled the jury and ordered it to acquit the defendants. In announcing his ruling Judge Waddell stated that the government did not have any basis at all upon which to sustain basis against the young men The decision to move that the indictment be quenched was reached by Diggs, Captain Tazwell Taylor, Leon M. Bazile, of Richmond, prior to going into the trial, and was made immediately after the government's case had been presented and without any testimony for the defense. No GROUNDS FOR CHARGES Those familiar with the case had never entertained any doubts as to the acquittal of the bank employees, the agent, and the treatment agent, in bringing charges against them was founded upon prejudice and ignorance rather than facts. The arrests were made in a sensational and spectacular murder, and the court ordered that persecute the men and embarrass the bank. Although the charges were brought against the men the early part of last season, the court had insisted on a trial at the December term of court, the district attorney was not ready, and even when the case was called Wednesday, assistant district attorney Miller did not attend the trial witness, Edward Garden, in court. The charges grew out of a forgyring perpetrated by one James Parker. The cheek was a government voucher and was returned after having been sent to the endorsement, a part of which was omitted, completed. Upon the return of the cheek a letter was addressed to Edward Gordon, the name that Parker gave when he deposited the cheek and complete the endorsement. The letter reached the genuine Gordon, instead of the fictitious one who forged the cheek, and when he came to the bank, without knowing that the inquiry in question assisted Gordon to complete the endorsement on same as called for. Upon learning, however, that the cheek was forged, the bank employee was informed in question assisted Gordon to complete the endorsement on same as called for. Upon learning, however, that the cheek was forged, the bank employee was informed in question assisted Gordon how to recover his money and also employed Pinketton detectives to apprehend the forger, which was done. In spite of this evidence of regularity as to bank procedure, and of honest intentions on the part of the bank employees, the government secret service agent took to frame charges of "conspiracy to defraud" against the young men. Upon hearing of the charges, Attorney Leon M. Bazile, of Richmond, assistant attorney general of the State, who has known Mr. Baker from Tyler, contacted him twice to defend him and was in court prepared to do so when the trial came up. Other prominent Richmond citizens were on hand to testify as character witnesses, among them H. P. John I. Taylor, president of the Second Street Savings Bank and the Richmond Beneficial Insurance Co., and Col. Giles R. Jackson, Mr. S. P. Ryland, vice-president of the First National Bank of Richmond, sent an affidavit testifying to the good character of Mr. Baker. The attorneys for the defense were Mr. J. Eugene Diggs, who is general counsel for the bank; Captain Tazewell Taylor and Mr. Leon M. Bazile.

Would Give Protection Against, Outlaws The publishers of the Nongolk Journal and Guide have received the following letter from Mayor Edgar H. Bain, of Goldsboro, N. C., refuting an article appearing in this newspaper week concerning the closing of a Greek cafe, that colored people, by order of the Ku Klux Klan. The Mayor said: "In your issue of April 30th, you carried in a statement that the Mayor of Goldsboro refused protection of the city of Goldsboro refused protection of tain white parties who were conducting a restaurant for the patronage of colored people only. You will correct them. As a rule I do not pay any attention to idle gossip, but as I have always maintained and stood for fair play among every race, I feel 50 is justice to the better class of our colored people that this article be corrected. "The two proprietors of the restaurant who were foreigners came up to me and told me that they officially but just dropped in, as they the building to see the tandora. They told me that the Ku Klux had ordored them to close and was there any law that there was no law against them although I did not have anything to do with the enforcement of the law, as the city had the managerial form that they had protection. I also informed them that I did not believe there was by this firm, or organization of the Klu Klux in Golden, Mo. to me. Then I understand that they do not do business in an un-ordered manner, and stand only for law and order. I do not approve of the action taken in parties in closing this restaurant. "If the forgers or any other parties were to appeal to me, or the city police, they would receive protection. This was demonstrated in the attempt of lynching here a few months ago." LYNCH LAW CLAIMS ANOTHER VICTIM None of Mob's Identity Is Hidden But No Arrests are Made. Accused of Attempted Assault (Special to Norfolk Journal and Sunday) Bowling Green, Mo.—Two hundred unmasked members of a mob who made no effort to hide their identity took Roy Hammonds, a colored boy on a road station here, hung him to a beige-green pole and hid his body with bullets. Hammond was on his way to the penitentiary to serve a ten-year sentence that had been imposed upon him after an indictment assault.

GOVERNOR --- New York City,—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, has issued a statement announcing that its charges of peonage and of the brutal mistreatment of Negroes by white men in the South had received entire confirmation from Governor Hugh M. Dorsey of Georgia. Governor Dorssey on April, 26, published a pamphlet entitled "The Negro in Georgia" in which he gives evidence of 136 instances of "Negroes lynched, Negroes held in peonage, Negroes driven out by organized lawlessness and Negroes subjected to individual acts of cruelty," in the State of Georgia in the past two years. "In some counties," Georgia's Governor said, "the Negro is being driven out as though he were a wild beast; in others he is being held a slave; in others no Negroes remain. No effort has been made to collect the cases cited. If such an effort was made, I believe the number could be multiplied. In only two of the 135 cases is the 'usual crime' against white women involved." The N. A. A. C. P. Charges On March 29, 1921, the N. A. A. C. P. issued a statement signed by its assistant secretary, Walter F. White, charging that the horrible conditions on the Williams "murder farm" in Jasper County, Georgia, where eleven or more Negro peons were murdered, could be duplicated in every Southern State. Peonage was rampant, said the statement, and; "The Mississippi delta region embracing the States of Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, western Tennessee, and eastern Texas, is built on this system of debt slavery." Governor Dorsey's Substantiation Governor Dorsey's tells of a case in which a Georgia sheriff sent to protect Negroes from the mobism of the Ku Klux Klan exonerated the Klan, and the stationery on which the sheriff wrote showed he was himself a member of this infamous body. He then tells the following atrocious stories: "County No 21—Near a small town in this county a negro was born fifty eight or sixty years ago. By work he accumulated a little money with which, ten years later, he bought a farm of 140 acres, where he lived with his wife and twelve children. Three of his daughters were educated. They were school teachers. A three-room house was on the farm. The farm was well stocked, the Negro owning in 1919 outright five mules, and having made payments on the purchase of a horse a cow and thirty-five horses. During the war with Germany this Negro family bought approximately $1,000 worth of Liberty bonds and Thrift Stamps. The Negro headed an organization of Negroes who raised between $10,000 and $11,000 for Liberty bonds. His work was highly praised by newspapers at the time. "A white man, who can neither read nor write, owns a farm adjoining the farm of the Negro. When the articles praising the man for his war work appeared, the white man remarked: '_____'s getting too damned prosperous and biggie for a nigger." Trouble began. The white man had his land processedion. The Negro had no representative present. The processors ran the man's line 25 feet over the Negro's line across a terrace which had been there since the Negro was a child working for the family from whom he bought the land. The deed given to him covered the land to this terrace. The white man crossed the terrace, drove stakes along the new line and warned the Negro not to cross the line. The Negro disregarded the warning and continued to plough to the terrace, as he had been doing since boyhood. Sheriff "Would Rather Kill".

(Mrs. Roberta Roberts) One Saturday, in the fall of 1919, the Negro with his three caughters and son came to town. The town Marshal approached the Negro in the street and said: 'I have a warrant for you.' The Negro answered: Mr. ——————what have I done? 'Read your warrant.' The Marshal replied with an oath that he would rather kill the Negro than read the warrant. Here the evidence varies. The Negro had a stick in his hand. Some say that the Marshal who is large and powerful, grabbbed the stick and struck the Negro in the face with a pistol, knocking him down. Others state that the Negro, raising his stick backed away, when the Marshal rushed in and struck him to the ground with his pistol. Several other white men rushed upon him and began to choke and beat him. "Two of his daughters started to him. A man kicked one girl in the stomach. The other reached her father and began to wipe the blood from his face. The three were quickly overpowered. The third daughter and son were caught. All were locked in jail. The girl who was kicked was ill at the time. The blow made her deathy sick She lay in jail meaning and begging that some thing be done for her and her father, who was bleeding badly from his wounds. The sheriff locked them in and left them without medical attention and ignorant of the charge against them. "Next morning the Negro learned that his neighbor had sworn out a warrant against him for trespass. The Sheriff refused to tell him what the charge was against his son and daughters. The Negro employed a lawyer. Then he found that he and his daughters were charged with resisting an officer in the discharge of his duty, his son with carrying a pistol. Only one witness claimed to have seen the pistol. This was the white neighbor, who said that he had seen the son put the pistol in the buggy, while the crowd was on his father. The buggy was searched. The pistol was not found. "Talk of lynching the Negro and his family caused their removal to another county. A committee or citizens waited upon the Judge of the circuit, who informed them, it is charged, that he would put the Negro in the chain gang when the case should come up for trial. "The man, his daughters and son were tried in the Superior Court. The father was sentenced to serve twelve months in the chain gang and pay a fine of $250. The girls were fined $50 each. The son was fined $100 The Negro paid the fines of his children.

"Reputable merchants and bankers in this county unite in giving the Negro and his family a good character.

A lending merchant gave the father a time of credit running from $800 to $4,500 a year. One of the best citizens of the county signed his bond.

IN MEMORIAM In sad, but loving remembrance of our dear father, George L. Askew, who departed this life May 6, 1918. They laid him in his resting place of mother earth and clay, With flowers covered over the space, Three years ago today. And on his grave the flowers bloom, The birds are singing bright; His loved ones come with hearts of gloom, And angels watch by night. We lived a life of truth and love, In death he was the same, And now he lives in Heaven above, Free from all care and pain. And when the storms of life are over, Which will not be so long, And we shall reach the other shore, And sing the angels' song. The joys of Heaven will be complete, When with our loved ones stand And walk with them the golden street, And join the angels' band. Tia then we will see his sainted face, And clasp him by the hand, And on his head we will see a crown, For his good deeds to man. The hungry ones by him were fed, And shoes upon their feet, He stood beside the poor man's bed, Which made his life complete. —His Loving Children. GET MAMIE SMITH'S New May Records AT R. L.

LOW STANDARDS OF LIVING AND LOW PRICES OF COTTON AND TOBACCO Has Mr. Clarence Poc, editor of the Progressive Farmer, seen a new light and other things? In "A Success Talk for Farm Boys," in his newspaper of April 16th, he takes the position that the tow standard of living among Afro-American farmers and farm hands is responsible for "cheap labor" in the South, and the low prices of cotton and tobacco, and that which cheapens cotton and tobacco as the result of cheap "Negro labor" cheapens white labor and makes possible the low prices of cotton and tobacco raised by white farmers and farm laborers. He has, therefore, reached the conclusion that, as the two races are going to remain together in the South, the main thing to do is to raise the standard of living among the colored people. On this point he says: "In other words, if one race is willing to live in a shanty, wear ragged clothes, and eat cheap goods, going to have an advantage over the other manners better houses, better clothes, better food—unless the race which demands the better work works more wisely and effectively, and the race's advantage. This is the situation that faces our white people in the South today. Every year, the farming is working in competition with the gro farmers and farm laborers. It is the low living standards of the Negro which have made cotton and tobacco so cheap in the past. The part of the cotton crops, and he was willing to live in a cabin, work in rags, and eat fat meat confeed for his diet. Conscience of the world paid just enough for cotton to provide this standard of living." As a matter of fact, what Southern labor was ever cheaper than slave labor on the one hand, and more costly on the other than slave labor? And the pay of free labor in the production of cotton and tobacco was kept to the slave rate and the price of cotton and tobacco remained at the old slave price up to the World War, when the unprecedented demand placed the price up to as high as sixty cents a pound. Now it is round ten cents a pound again. Whose fault was it in the slave system that labor was cheap and consequently that cotton and tobacco were cheap? Let Mr. Poe pull down his William Rowland Helper's remarkable book on the bad effects of slave labor and consult what he says. Who is responsible for the low farm-hand wages that have prevailed since the emancipation of the shives, if those who hired the labor and got what there was of value out of the production of cotton and tobacco, are not, and are not now. The producers of those staples will learn a very valuable lesson from Mr. Poe's remarkable talk to farm boys, if they are not too blinded by the desire for gain to understand. And how much have those same cotton and tobacco producers done to improve the living standards of the farm hands since the war? How much are they doing right now? Mr. Poe ignores the fact that Afro-American illiteracy has been reduced by half since emancipation, and that there has been a steady improvement in the standard of living among them. He also ignores the fact that the white farmers and farm-hands of the South have a vast number of illiterates among them, who live in shanties and subsist on fat bacon and corn pone. The Hampton Institute has just issued a bulletin on "Negroes Are Improving Their Home Life," being a study of the subject by Miss Carrie Alberta Lyford of the Institute. We take the following from the Bulletin: "Miss Lyford outlined the operating of the Negro Organization Society of Virginia for securing better-health, better schools, the training of teachers, the awakening of 12,000,000 people to the 'need of more sanitary methods of living, more faithful school attendance, a higher standard of home-making, uplifting of community standards through efficient and consecrated Negro leaders; the co-operating of State and Federal forces for improvement of Negro rural life; the signs of improved conditions 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 demand for better-health care will be of increasingly higher type and better fitted to meet the demands of modern life. So vital is the improvement of the Negro one can almost prophesy that the Negro will be necessary to race progress and to national development will readily follow. It would be well, if every teacher of home-making in the Negro community be teaching to be thus vital and could work with the inspiration that such an appreciation for her task would be sure to bring." The living standards of the white and colored farmers and farm hands of the South are bad enough, and we are glad to have Mr. Poe recognize that the standard of living among colored farmers and farm hands should be improved, so that the price of cotton and tobacco may be increased, and that education of the colored persons concerned, as he concedes, is the only way to bring about the desired improvement. What he desires for the colored farmers and farm-hands in this matter "as earnestly desire for white farmers and farm-hands. OUR SKILLED LABOR·HOLDING ITS OWN The Department of Labor has just released for publication the information that: "While 19.33 per cent of unskilled labor in the country joined the army of unemployed during the last three months of industrial depression, only 2.63 per cent of the skilled labor was thus affected." This is a most interesting deduction from an emergency survey of selected industries made by the Department of Labor. "This fact," summarizes the report, "is strong evidence of the growing inclusion and retention of colored workers and should act as an encouraging sign to colored labor that gained a foothold in the skilled group." "The report further shows that the disposition to apply themselves to early road construction and repairing and to return to agricultural pursuits has had an effect of reducing in some measure the number of Afro-American unemployed. Further: "The Calumet district, of which Chicago is the center, leads in the number of colored unemployed, with an approximation of 15,000. In Michigan the unemployment of colored is given as having been decreased by 2,530. In the Pittsburgh district estimates indicate that the average unemployed colored labor is 4,500. On March 31, 1921, in that district, there were 2,000 of these workers 'absolutely unemployed.'" The encouraging feature of the labor situation, as discouraging as it is to all race groups of laborers, is the fact that Afro-American skilled labor is holding its own better than our unskilled labor. This, if it should continue to be the case, should encourage more of our young people to master a skilled trade than are pow doing it. INTELLIGENT PEOPLE BEGIN. NING TO GIVE CREDIT TO. WHOM IT IS DUE It is gratifying to note that the influence of the life, work and sacrifices for the commonwealth made by "Dr. Booker T. Washington is becoming to be recognized generally and appreciated as a real contribution to American civilization and progress. Time is the only real test of a man's life and works. Only a few out of the thousands who occupy the high places of popularity in the life of a given generation are remembered by the next generation. They just come on the scene, act their part, and pass on. It is said that it takes the hopes and strivings of a whole generation of men to produce one great man. That may be true. It may have taken more than a generation to produce one Frederick Douglass. To speak for the slave people as he spoke it was necessary that he should have lived through their life of unrequited toil, of brutal treatment, and of hopeless hope, as he did. At the fifth Founder's Day celebration, at Tuskegee Institute, recently, the principal address was delivered by Rev. M. Ashby Jones, D. D., pastor of the Ponce de León Avenue Baptist church of Atlanta and a fearless member of the Commission on Inter-Racial Co-operation. Dr. Jones rightfully claimed that the whole American people have an inheritance in the life and work of Dr. Washington. That is the true state of the case. What he accomplished for his race in uplift work in inspiration for higher and better conditions of living was a distinct contribution to American civilization and progress. Dr. Jones, among other things, said: "The Booker Washington type of leader has his eyes clear and clean and his vision unclouded. He sees all the wrongs and does the obstacles in his path. He sees race's progress, and does not pause before them. He believes in the white race and in the black race. He also sees what they may see. He the man who tries to lead men with his eyes on the ground is paralyzing in his influence. The spirit of Booker Washington is atroh and aglow today throughout the South and the North and West, the South and the East, this message: "Come see Tuskegee, the lengthened shadow of Booker Washington's personality, and swear by Booker Washington's white and black people of the South of the Nation shall hear glad news and the gospel of his life." Dr. Washington did for his generation what Frederick Douglass did for his. The one could not have done the work of the other. The work of each of them was done in a perfect and permanent way, so as to perpetuate the name as well as the work of the two. Such men belong to mankind. They give honor and standing to the Nation and the race group to which they belong. It is for us to keep alive the work of each of them, and all of the men and women of the race who make history for it, that our boys and girls may gain inspiration from them, and thus meet and conquer with greater fortitude the obstacles that stand in the way of every person who tries to do something, who tries to succeed. Intelligent people in all sections of the country are beginning to give credit to whom it is due, without malicious reference to the race and color of the deserving person. That is a positive gain.

Hall) The history and literature of any race are the credentials on which that race is admitted to the family of civilized man and are the indications of its future possibilities. Through all ages and in all nations civilized man has justified his existence by pointing to his history and literature not only as proofs of his development but as examples of his human contribution, the total sum of human betterment, and of the torch he has lent to light the path of man's onward march. The Jew, the Greek, the Roman, the Hindu, the peoples of China and the people of Western Europe are known and esteemed for what history and literature reveal of them and for the contribution they have made to man's knowledge and welfare. The descendants of the Jews have been proud and profit the history of their fathers and justly look with confidence towards the future. The ancient history and literature of Negroes in Africa have not been emphasized by other races which have dominated the world with their language and civilization, and therefore the modern Negroes, enjoying the civilization of other nations and races, have been the ancient civilization and customs which still find expression in native tribes of the mother land. It is entirely possible that the destruction of the great Alexandrian library deprived the world of much of the history and literature of ancient Africa. History and literature are taught to young and old that they may get inspiration therefrom and be instilled with pride for the race that made possible these achievements. Living in a world that worships the history of white races and looks with distain, (if looks at all), upon what African们 is almost impossible to develop race pride in consciousness of racial possibilities in men and women unless those of us who know our history and literature shall get this information to those who hunger. In modern nations, America, English and France especially, Negroes have easily kept pace and, in many instances, have been in the vanguard in literature, arts, music and science. There contributions are not despised by the most enlightened, but on the contrary are accorded the high places due them. It is sad true, however, that the school boy or girl may know to discover America, why the War of the Roses, what caused the fall of the Republic Empire but have no knowledge of Dumas, Colorida Taylor, H. O. Tanner, or John Dunbar. Our schools teach little of Literature and Negro History and Literature and Negro public opinion is not yet keenly alive to the need. It is quite fair to say that a child or an adult who has never studied whatever history and literature his own race has produced should be NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE oration con- obice- every- who cons of give without and That blue, things considered ignorant. One can not argue that there is no source from which to get the information for there are volumes in library writings by Negroes themselves, Prehaps one of the most notable as well as the most easily accessible being the "Journal of Negro History" by Dr. Carter G. Woodson, volumes in which are found contributions from the best and largest in which are found the best reviews of books on Negro life and history. The campaign for the Study of Negro History and Literature conducted by the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity should meet the approval and secure the co-operation of all Negro men and women who are interested in the intellectual growth of the race and its future achievements. PUBLIC HUMOR (By Chas. M. Tucker) The sequel of grief and oppression was music and fun, or anything which tended to alleviate mental and physical suffering during the days of servitude, bondage and thralldom. After the day's labors, very brusquely used to him by "masters", nocturnal diversions, in the form of dancing, singing and fun-making, were pronounced susceptible to the Negro's care-free nature. Minstrel festivities staged on the family and neighborly scale, brought out and other cheerful tactics which teddy finds him the exponent of humor. Through his disquieting mind and soul, redoubling in double propensity towards his struggles, work, and anxiety for "A Better Day," he has characteristically expressed himself in by body knows de trouble I see"; "Deceive直直 Away," and many others, with such original and traditional beauty and simplicity of melody that prespent-day musicians have found little room for harmony improvement. By their characteristic qualities of form and emotion, he has grown up of America's folk songs. His music seems crescendo. Briefly, R. Nathaniel Dett, Clarence C. White and Harry T. Burleigh have so artistically and meritoriously arranged many of these melodies in their original tunes that are invariably being included on the program of their concerts, those of other races, such as Percy Grainger, pianist; Fritz Kreisler, violin virtuoso; John McCormack, tenor, and others. While these artists have records of these spirituals, it is happily appreciated that Pace & Hankins underwent a business which will will challenge the chance to permanently produce their own works of music and song. Naturally blessed with the gifts of verse, song and humor, the manner in which these gifts are used largely devolves upon the Negro artists and comedians. Being inspired from the heart and subsequently arranged from the standpoint of artistic preservation, the work of the ever maintain their very high regard in the annals of American literature and music. Through the inroads made in the field for "Joke material" by those of other races in an endeavor to claim and impermute the Negro in his manners and tactics and jokes for public entertainment have not greatly suffered in originality, but they have become modified in standards. Through the influx of jokes for making, and through the drain made in the field for "Joke tinber" by musical comedies, road shows and circuit vaudeville, clean jokes and songs have been done away with for those that have been indecent and immoral. Jokes with outbursts and songs, and scenes inspired from the motive of animalistic passion have taken the place of jokes clean in conception and vivid in interpretative pennings. Jokes and songs appeal to much to emotions which involve imagination. While the Negro comedian is not wholly to blame for the manner and standards in which public humor has drifted, much can be done by him to original stand-up perspicacious tacies and original stand-up persuasive tacies. Recent musical comedies at the local playhouse were highly appreciative in this connection. This was particularly true of "Broadway Rastus," which played to a record-breaking crowd that is performance. Every normal joke which brings forth a good-hearted laugh, but, no matter who the comedian may be, we cannot be applaudive on freakish jests and songs. We are just beginning to realize that the perversity of decency in public enterance is forcing for depreciation which is compulsory in patronization. Modes of thinking have changed as well as fashion, and what one has previously laughed at he now ignores as bad taste and judges as ostracism. The things we applaud are a measure of our refinement. U. N. I. A. Held Interesting Meeting (Ry Mrs. Clair Holland, General Secretary, Ladies Division) Right Hon. Frederick Augustate Toote, B. A. D. I. N.

Mrs. one among the greatest men of the U. S. was extremely interesting and far-reaching in effect. He urged the race to consider seriously the comparison between the sisters, Mary and Martha and to learn from that to put away all illusions to put away real things that count for success. He urged a greater co-operation and a more strict attention to business. He stressed the importance of putting more time and money into the buildings, schools and factories, instead of so many things, and exclusion he reminded his hears that Africa is a land wonderfully rich in natural resources, and that the thing to do is to awake to action, to teach in the trust the staff, and follow Marcu's Garcia Guarnieri, and was in charge of Division No. 20, Mr. Allen Hobbs, president.

Ministers' Alliances Opposing Ku Klux Klan (Special to Norfolk Journal and Guide) Richmond, Va.-Many ministers' actions are actively opposing the Ku Klux Klan's intimidation. Frequently a Sunday is given to scourge against it from all the pulpits of a city; sometimes an appeal is made to the authorities. The city council of Roanoke, Va., recently responded to such an appeal from the ministers with a public declaration of the city's entire ability to maintain order without outside aid, and a request to all citizens to refuse to countenance the organization's outspoken opposition of the New Orleans group has done much to prevent the Klans' progress, and very little headway has been made there by its supporters.

In his usual happy manner he made us welcome to every good thing in the city, and especially to the sumptuous repast that was to follow our program. After the address of welcome, Dr. A. A. Galvin, the pastor of the church, was presented, and he too made a very interesting address, in which we were again reminded that we were welcome. After this, President Brown turned the gavel over to Dr. B. W. Dance, president of the Tidewater Union, who announced that the house was ready for the order of the day. Dr. F. W. Willimna was chosen to respond to the addresses of welcome, which he did in a most splendid manner. He impressed us with the large PREPARATIONS EXELENTO BEAUTY FACE POWDER A face powder of exceptional finesse, superiority and quality that is a necessity for a beautiful completion.

Wallace, pastor of the First Calvary Baptist church of Norfolk, who preached the sermon for the occasion. He used a text Luke 23:33. Thus, "The Atonement." This was a ministerly effort, which showed careful preparation. The message was powerfully delivered, and contained much food for thought. The next number on the program was opened by the Rev. J. H. Ashby. The subject was, Revivals, and how to Conduct Them. The paper was a most excellent one, contained many valuable suggestions that may be put into practice in any field. He showed that he was familiar with the subject, which he was discussing. Favorable comments were made on the program by the Revs. E. E. Smith, W. S. Sharp, and James H. Smith. The brethren made some very pertinent remarks concerning the task before us as messengers of God. A vote of thanks颁发了 the Tidewater Union for its excellent program. An offering of $0.10 was taken and presented to the pastor, Dr. Galvin. After the rendition of the program, we enjoyed a sumptuous repast, which had been prepared by a committee of ladies of the city. To show our appreciation, Dr. Dance chose the Rev. A. S. Hoard to thank the ladies for their splendid repast. The Rev. Hoard in a few remarks assured the ladies that well pleased with all that had truly spired. Benediction by the Rev. J. D. Ward. Rev. B.

The ages of the children range from 2 years to 12. Regular class-room work is conducted in the Home five days in each week under the direction of a competent teacher, Miss Mary E. Webster. The religious training is unexcelled anywhere else. Praise services and the study of the Bible have a place twice daily in the lives of the children. It is an object lesson to note the degree of happiness found among all three. The way the children cling together, the way they look to Rev. and Mrs. Weaver as their parents tell the story of the lives which they are capable of leading. They seem always happy, in spite of the fact that they are far from home and former friends. The house which is now used is inadequate for the number of children, and we appeal to the public to help us raise funds for building. Donations may be sent directly to the superintendent, Rev. W. B. Weaver, at the Home, Hampton, Va. Your sympathy and prayers will go far toward helping us carry this great responsibility which our Father in Heaven has seen fit to place upon us. He has said, "Suffer the little ones to come unto me, and forbid them not for of such injustice of Godhaven." Sincerely. MRS. L. E. TITUS. At 9:30, Supt. C. G.

The lesson was beautifully taught, bringing out the great importance of getting an education in order that we might get a better knowledge and understanding. Rev. Keizer, of Stevensville, Ohio, was with us and gave a short talk. He asked that we would send the picture of the Young Men's Bible Class and the officers of the Sunday school to the National Baptist Publishing House and the American Baptist Publishing House, that they may insert it in their books. Miss Maud Weaver Winston, of Ohio, was present also and spoke in the interest of the Weaver Home of Hampton, Va. A collection was raised for the Home. At 11:30, Rev. Keizer preached to a crowded house. His sermon was forceful and inviting. He not only is a great preacher but a singer as well.

Maxwell Maxwell preached an endidid sermon, logical, humorous and truthful. Every one present enjoyed the message. At 5:30, our B. Y. P.

Thirteen came forward to unite with us and one sinner was happily converted. There were thirty accessions and a collection of $390.91.

THE VIRGINIA MISSIONARY BAPTIST STATE CONVENTION THE VIRGINIA MISSIONARY BAPTIST STATE CONVENTION Richmond, Virginia, March 3, 1921. To the Churches Comprising the Virginia Missionary Baptist Convention and to Those Scattered Abroad Throughout the Various States, Sharing Common Interest in the Great Work which Our Lord has Laid Upon Us—Greetings: Grace be unto you and peace from God our Father abound upon you. I of the great work laid upon you and the success which has come to that work in your hands. With the sweat and blood of your toil, He has mingled the dewdrops of Heaven and in your trail He has multiplied blessings. I thank God with you for the great delegation that met us in Stanton last May, for the great outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon that session, and for the large offering the many Churches sent up for the building of our Masters' Kingdom. By the Grace of God, we shall meet this year in our Fifty-fourth Annual Session with the Liberty Baptist church, Washington, D. C, Rev, Holland Powell, D. D, pastor. At 8:00 P. M. Tuesday, May, 10th, will be a great memorial conference in honor of three valiant men who have gone to their God. The late President Gregory Willis Hayes, A. M., R. H. Bowling, LL. D. and W. Bishop Johnson, LL. D. will be eulogized. While the Convention will not open until 9:00 A. M. Wednesday, we greatly desire the deligation to be present to honor the memory of these great benefactors Tuesday night. Let every church be represented. If you cannot possibly send a delegate, send letter and money to the President or Corresponding Secretary. Brethern, our one hundred thousand dollar Administration Hall on our school grounds in Lynchburg is going up in a most pleasing way. By the time we meet in Washington, no doubt it will be well nigh enclosed. It is the finest building to the credit of the race in the State of Virginia, and shall stand there as a monument to the love and labors of Colored Baptist of this generation amid generations to come even after we, who now mingle our hands in the toil shall have gone to be with Jesus. Our great President R. C. Woods, A. M., is doing the work in a way that make our hearts leap for joy. He is a genius on the job; let us put up the money. Our Foreign Mission Program is a unique one, but a few years hence, it will be adopted by many States. Our plan is to open a Virginia Baptist Mission Station in Africa, building there a great school, training men for the ministry and other professions and trades. We hope to begin work in the next convention year. We are expecting you to send up sufficient money for Foreign Missions to the coming session to enable us to launch a creditable foreign mission drive on Africa territory. Let all of the Churches, Associations and local Conventions holding foreign mission money in your treasures send it up to Washington. We will see that it goes to Africa and that you have an account of the same. We are asking every Baptist of the race, and all others who are interested in the great program herein stated, to give at least One Dollar each towards financing the same. This is a great denominational rally for a larger amount than any organization of the race in this section has attempted to raise at any one sitting; but the work demands it; God's cause is calling for it. We are the sponsors and it must be forthcoming. The President has issued fifty thousand One Dollar Certificates, carring the cut of the new building, with those of the President of the Seminary and the President of the Convention. Let every member and friend purchase one or more as souvenirs. If you haven't one of these certificates, apply to your District Superintendent. If he can not supply you, write your President. These are intended to help each Church raise its One Dollar per member for Education and Missions to be reported at our next Convention. Brethern, pray for the next session of our Convention. Strive to raise and send, up One Dollar for each member on your roll. Let the delegates come prepared to stay through the Convention. Brethern, Take Special Notice!! Since our Secretary's letters have been,mailed and my letter printed, the place of meeting has been changed. Instead of meeting in the Liberty Baptist Church as our letters stated, Dr. Holland Powell has arranged for us to meet in the great Vermont Avenue church, Dr. J. E. Willis, pastor, because of the need of a large auditorium to accommodate the great delegation expected. On reaching the Union Station in Washington, take car, marked 14th St., get off at 14th and R Sts., walk east 2 blocks to 12th and R Sts., church around corner—two doors, south. Yours for the Fifty Thousand Dollars for our Master's Kingdom at the coming session. T. J. KING, President, 212 Second Street Road, Richmond, Virginia. N. A. A. C. P.

He was carried ten miles, the Sheriff kicked him in the body and head. One eye was virtually knocked out. Then the Sheriff made him get out. He was beaten again on his naked body.

Joyner, as a porter, and Mr. Johnnie Titusson as also a porter, do some very clever sometimes. The costumes worn by Brooks are the prettiest and most varied in style seen on the stage of the Attucks. We venture to say the studies of Norfolk who saw these costumes have gained some new ideas along line. the second act, during the singing of "Beautiful Fires," led by Miss Brooks, a number of the chorus appenents each wrenning a different instrument variety to beautiful models.

The chorus girls as a whole are the prettiest aon on the stage of the Attucks, and the singing above the average. Mr. Miller is the lead of the selected selection of such a beautiful act of size that "Darktown Scandals of 1921," he has really put together one of the best shows on the tour. Special mention should be made of the jaxs orchestra selected by the management for this special occasion. "Elks Revue and Vaudeville" Big Success (By W. K.

Perhaps the biggest, well as the most pleasing surprise of the evening was Attorney W. E. Hodgson, for while nearly known by his friends and acquaintances he possesses an excellent voice for singing, few of them ever dreamed of him as a monologist and humorist, all of which he proved to be. David & Co.'s Fun Factory, a court scene with judge, simply bags the L. Davis as the witness, simply bags the description it was really "funnier than nonsense," Davis performed like a veteran, being inductively a natural comedian and author of his own work, much in home. Mr. Hodges as attorney for the case in the case tried before "his honey" showed that he could be as much of a "play lawyer" as he was one. Mr. C. B. Reid as court officer inducted him to the scene with his own play in the Court. Miss Bernice Vaughn was very professional as speed fiend and shop officer inducted him to the scene with his own play in the Court. Miss Mary E. Goodman, who has been suited by a street corner "ho-vamp" was a most excellent fitness for the prosecution role of the he vamp. Robinson, who played the role of the he vamp, performed apted lines most effectively. Mr. Johnson, a mock neck who had assaulted Mr. (Miss) C. J. Booth, Jr., played his part with accuracy and skill. Robinson was a most laughable mollycoddle.

Patterson, Robinson and Sykes were an aseam from start to finish and won encores after a teammate at Patterson's singing was good, but his execution was too showed an artistic skill and a developed finish would stand the test of the most profound crickie. Mr. W. C. Robinson, who "got out of" Patterson's by finding a job as singer in Mr. Patterson's reputation, had his enviable reputation of Norfolk's Miss Dainy Sykes, who composed the third part of this trbo was all that could be asked for and then some. She has remarkable voice of her well-trained, evenly balanced voice and expression and interpretation were truly sublime. She responded to several encores.

Trail," a Hodkinson release, which is coming to the Attucks Theatre Frie lection, is the latest photoplay production of Benjamin R. B. Hodkinson, pioneer maker of pictures from great novels. This, the photoplay version of Zane Grey's most powerful romance, is admitted to be the first of his production. The success of his first production, "Desert Gold," from the novels of Stewart Edward White and Zane Grey respectively, both released beneath the Hodkinson banner, the wave of ninety-one novel productions. Mr. Ampton was the pioneer of this type of production and his latest drama proves that he remains unique in his ability to produce the underlying motive, the balance of powerful sweep of great novels. He followed his initial productions with Emerson Hough's The Sagebruiner." Zane Grey's "Riders of the Cave" and Churchill's "The Dwelling Place of God" come together. "The U. P. Trail," the most powerful and vivid, the greatest triumph of them all. Critical analysis of "The U.P. Trail" shows that the appeal of this work lies in the mighty virility of it, the vigorous humanness, the scorn of sham. It stands out, distinct from the herd, by its strength and fearlessness, by the intensity of its drama, by the sweet nostrய of its romance. The hand of the master craftsman is seen throughout, from the selection of colorful material available in the novel to the clear, strong wording of the tilting and assembling of the completed film. The selection of actors, the art expressed in wonderful scene settings, the perfection of technical details all bear the impressions of his constructive ability. The wonderful romance of the story, combination of dramatic emotion, glamor of achievement, warmth of love and mighty heart-play of human emotions, places "The U.P.

BACHARACH GIANTS TAKES SERIES FROM NORFOLK GIANTS BACHARACH GIANTS TAKES SERIES FROM NORFOLK GIANTS In Thursday's game Chappie Johnson's youngsters made the Bacharachs use three pitchers to win. "String Bean" Williams started for the New Yorkers, but the former stars soon found his delivery and chased him from the mound, McDonald taking his place; but he only lasted one minute, hitting the first two men to join him and Capt. Marcelie called on Wendell to stop the onslaught of Norfolk. He held them runless the rest of the way. Pierce for Norfolk pitched a stady game and his support not wabbed in the sixth inning might have won his game. The batting of Petus featured the game, he poling one for the circuit and sending two men home aided of him. It was a good game from the rookers' standpoint. BACHARACH GIANTS Ab. R. H. Po. A. E.

FRIDAY A fair sized crowd of fans braved the chilly winds to witness the third and last game between the Bacharachs and Norfolk on last Friday. Chappie sent Lee in to try and hold the hard-hitting crowd from New York, but they jumped him right at the start, and it seemed that Norfolk was doomed to go runless. "Iron Man" McDonald started for the Bacharachs and did fairly well for three innings, but in the fourth stanza, with one gone, Räggs poled one over the right field wall for four sacks, and started a batting rally that netted the young-age pitcher in this inning after Smith and Lewis hit Churchill met the apple square on the nose and put one behind the score board, sending both runners across the plate ahead of him. It was curtains for "Me", Williams relieving him and succeeded in checking the rally. From then on the Tidewater boys seemed to have lost heart and the game became a hippodrom, the Bacharachs scoring at will. BACHARACHS Ab. H. R. Po. A. E.

A brilliant motion picture director, Jack Cowray, handling a cast of distinguished screen characters are seen in the most powerful character: flaunted by their aid expressed the producers' interpretation of the great elements of the Zane Remarkable work is done by Robert McKinley Williams, Marquette Lea Do Motte, Joseph I.

Burphy, George Berrall and Walter Perry, George Ayley in each case enhanced the human appeal of the story characters and at the same time greatly added to their own screen reputations. The handling of the production is especially remarkable in that it has been developed into a breathless action, but in not only crowded with breathless action, but in the overwhelming human; which has the colorful appeal of most romantic time, place, and period in the history of America and yet is of pill place, all time, all periods. A work that has, in short, the ancient Romans and the Barbarians who drove Rome would have enjoyed "The U. P. could they have seen it, as greatly as the laborer of today. Language will be no substitution of French titles will make it as the blase Parisian as to the "tired business man" in New York or the busy school girl in Italy. It is true Romance, and true romance is universal: It is true Romance, and true romance is universal: The showing made by Chappio's Colts against such an aggregation as owner Conner has gotten together, was indeed creditable. To make the veterans exert themselves to win was in itself no mean attempt. In the first game but for his support weakening, Winters would have held them runless. The second game with Pierce on the mound was good in spots, and shows that Noll has a good team, and all they need is stronger fighting spirit. If Chappio can instill in them more fight and vim when the team is behind he will have the best team in this section. Lee, the new pitcher secured last week, has the ear marks of a valuable man, but he must learn to watch the bases more closely, for he allowed two men to steal home on him Friday. Lewis was the bright star in Friday's game. His fielding and throwing was the outstanding feature. Little Stars Walk Away With Victory The Little Stars have again hit the 'Star Park Cubs for a victory to the tune of 4 to 3. The game was an exceptionally brilliant one featured by the work of Robinson, first base: Mann, 2nd base: Proctor, 3rd base, and Cap. Batteries: Shirt Bob, Creshman, Brown and Smith; Little Stars: Hardy, Austin and Warren. Umpire: Mann.

Steptoe and Moors Downing are all the same steals third, but the crowd was calling for the Fire Dept. to put on the LEAL out. So the map was up. But on an easy grocer, on a first-time, Englisher took a place of Howard in the pitchers box, at close of second-hand, from this time on. It was a great pile of baffles between Englishmen and Brandon. The group was making out 14 men. The man and his son had his two feet. With blinding speed, and six of the Walter Eglinston, was put out while he trotted. Just how, who caught him was on his loot at all times, he caught a scrappy boy behind the bat and a hard worker. But Dr. Downing the old LEAL was only the first to come on the job every second, and made the fact that the first of the last. School boys took like they were tied to a post, but it started to steal, and even Jones the fleet fooled catcher was made to think of the Tenth Arrangements when he tried to steal. You know that, then, he was the only child to steal, not steal, well then, he remembered it. Ums said. You're OUT, and the next time one of the High boys tried to steal. Dabney is a good one of the most good one to eat a pic before the fellow took a test. He's before played a long-time game. If, that, because not a one tried to pull that again, The fact is no one got a chance. For it was all the pits of the battle, and it was three-thirds down the top and three-thirds up and down over. Just before the last joining was over. C. Tiffany Toliver, manager of the LEAL CLUB, the Nicket, and Coach Council, was a good player. Scott and Jeff, BUNNY JUG, danced while the grosser grand stand cheered, then they'll do something. "Then every body selling until you'll see a fine man, the Pumkin Vine Special as if it was flying up," he said, "and a third mile an hour. The LEAL is ready to all members, but you must be able to do well when you come this way, this next game, and they'll do it. It's a good time to look out for it.
