SCOURGED FOR PREACHING "FATHERHOOD OF GOD BROTHERHOOD OF MAN" FIRST IN LIVE NEWS THE TIME VOL. XXI, No. 30 SCOURGED FOR FATHERHO BROTHERH Ku Klux Klan Misook This For Social _Equality Propaganda. Fear Race Men Killed For Their Efforts to Save Women. RAVAGES OF KLAN ALL OVER SOUTH Miami, Fla.—Not since the crucifixion of Christ has a more dastardly crime been committed than that committed by members of the Ku Klux Klan here when the Rev. Mr. Philip S. Erwin, a white British subject, was given forty lashes on his bare back, tarred and feathered because he preached to his colored congregation the doctrine of "the brotherhood of man and fatherhood of God." The Rev. Mr. Phillip Erwin is an archdeacon of the Episcopal church in charge of colored work in Southern Florida and had just finished services the colored Episcopal church here the colored Episcopal church when he was wrayed by eight masked men to a lonely spot in the road, stripped to a tree severely whipped, tarred and feathered. The men's excuse for the administration of this very severe punishment was that he was preaching social equality to Negroes. The men then ordered the minister out of Miami within forty-eight hours under threat of his life. Mr. Erwin told his persecutors that he could not be forced to leave the city under any circumstances and that he expected to stick to his convictions relative to the equality of man and brotherhood of God. In the meantime he was then taken into the city with a sack over his head and thrown into the street where he was later found by a policeman who locked him up in police station. Although it is believed the guilty parties who committed the crime against the minister are known to the authorities no arrests have been made. British Government May Take A Hand The Rev. Mr. Erwin is a British subject and under the protection of the British flag and it is very likely that his government will demand reparation from this country for the brutal treatment that has been accorded one of her subjects. WHITE, WOMAN, TARRED, AND FEATHERED Shreveport, La.July 19.-Members of the Ku Kux Klan have taken a woman of their own race for a victim.

White, a Dinwidie postmaster, along with his partner Judge Griffith, was indicted by a special grand jury at Dinwidie Court House and the authorities are urging that he be tried immediately so as to convict him on the crime which he is alleged to have confessed. It is claimed that this method of procedure will help to avoid violence to the officer at the hands of a violent mob. Feeling among the whites of the county is running high and the authorities are anxious to appease the appetites of the blood thirsty ones by a speedy trial and conviction of the prisoners.

TULSA SENDS URGENT APPEAL TULSA SENDS URGENT APPEAL Wants Aid In the Establishment of Normal Conditions. People Living In Tents and Improvised Shacks. (TB) By the Associated Negro Press Tulsa, Oklahoma, Special, July 21—S. D. Hooker, Chairman of the Colored citizens relief committee has just issued an appeal to the general public for help in its work to bring a return of normal living conditions, among Colored people in this city. Thousands of the people are now living in tents and in such other improvised homes as can be given them by the local Colored committee. Unfortunately, the Colored have been left to their own resources despite the general plan for relief. Therefore, the committee asserts that the relief must be immediate else the coming Winter season, will find great distress and suffering among our Colored population. Money, food and clothing are requested by the committee and same can be sent to S. D. Hooker, the chairman, at Easton and Exter streets, Tulsa, Oklahoma. Mr. Hooker and his committee have asked 'Colored people throughout' country to set aside Sunday, the 24th of July as a relief day. The call asks: Colored churches and organizations to pray and raise such monies as they can to aid the work among the large number of sufferers. "The Negro's Part In The New Adjustment" Will be Theme of Address Delivered By Charles S. Morris, Jr., At First Baptist Church, Sunday. The people of Norfolk will be afforded an opportunity of hearing Mr. Morris, by chance, at his latest lecture, "The Negro's Part in the New Adjustment," at the First Baptist Church, Bute street Sunday afternoon, July 21th, at 3:30. Mr. Morris by special request will speak on this subject. It is fitting that the young men of the David King Bible Class were able to secure him at this time. The feverish tendencies to racial hatred which find expression in mob, riot and bomb have caused a state of possession in our people coupled with the seeming indifference of dominant party leadership to take cognizance of and redress aggravated wrongs committed against the race. Rev. C. M. Long, pastor of the Bank Street Baptist Church will preside, while Mr. Morris will be introduced to the audience by Mr. Ernest Hall. Twenty-five of the city's most prominent business and professional men have seats on the rostrum as the presidents, while the program will be interspersed with excellent music by some of the best local talent. Remember the date, Sunday, the 24th, 3:30. Tried To Keep Garvey Out Of Country (By The Associated Negro Press) New York City, July—Marcus Garvey is back! The founder and head of the Universal Negro Improvement Association is once more on American soil after an absence of several months. Mr. Garvey was delayed several months in his return to the United States by governmental complications. Some time ago the Associated Negro Press stated that efforts were being made to keep the U. N. I. A. chief from returning to the states on the grounds of being "an undesirable citizen." He can be authoritatively stated that such was the plan. The matter was taken up with the Department of Justice and the State Department by the General Counsel of the Garvey movement, William C. Matthews, of Boston, and aided by the assistant NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, JULY 23, 1921 counselors of the movement, they were successful in producing evidence to show that the work of the organization is quite entirely in line with the principles upon which the American government was founded. No demonstration was made by the officers of the organization when Mr. Garvey reached New York, but a great mass meeting was held in Liberty Hall following his return.

GOOD ADVICE TO TEACHERS Journal and Guide Correspondent Tells Them To Instill In Their Pupils an Interest In Race Publications. JOURNAL & GUIDE NEWS BUREAU 15 EAST HANGET ST., RALEIGH, N.C. BY T. L. McCoy For the reason that the white press invariably feature all the bad traits and deeds of Negroes, and rarely gives credit for any of their good deeds; this writer justifies himself in not giving publicity to bad deeds charged to Negroes, in so much as his wrong doings are so gratuitously featured in glaring head lines in the white press. Because of the peculiar incidents which took place here during the past week, I will vary from my rule and comment upon a matter that doesn't show up well for a certain class of Negroes. "All coons look alike to me," is a slang phrase credited to the white race; which-infers that all Negroes are disreputable. The proprietors of two Negro homes in this city were arrested upon the complaint of indignant Negroes charging that these parties were conducting assignation homes where men and women of both races met for general purposes. When brought to the municipal judge, they pleaded and received heavy fines coupled with road sentences. The road sentences were remitted providing that the guilty parties move from their present homes and report to the court quarterly showing that they are law abiding citizens. I need not say that the colored citizens were very indignant when these facts were known; and when the indignation did not subside until the case parties were tried convicted and sentenced by the court. The fact will scarcely be denied that Negroes of this class are passing away and very rapidly. Shaw summer school for teachers is in its third week and the 450 teachers in attendance are doing real genuine work in a most pleasing manner to the delight of Prof. J. H. Bins conductor. Dr. Moore of Durham, delivered a most pleasing address to the teachers at Chapel hour last Monday. On Tuesday, Mrs. Flügence Williams, a representative of the State Board of Health, had a healthful talk on sanitation and key observations while visiting public schools in all parts of the state. Mrs. Williams has the distinction of being the only colored woman employed by the State Board of Health to do health work among the colored people. Prof. Wray, State Conductor of Farm Schools for colored boys, addressed the teachers last Friday, also Prof. Smith Superintendent of the New Bern City Schools who spent the week at Shaw, each day lectured the Principal's group of teachers. At the close of his address on Friday, a vote of thanks was tendered to him for being a caring sister to her sister returning home last week from a month's visit to relatives and friends in Washington, D. C., Atlantic City, N. J., and Newport News, Va. Mr. P. B. Young in company with Mr. Erwin of the Commercial Banking and Trust Co., of Richmond, Va., passed through Method, N. C., one day last week enroute to Durham. As the representative here of several leading Negro newspapers and magazines I am generally known as, "The newspaper man," I pride the title because I realize the benefit my race receives. From the Negro press, I am growing more and more public sentiment in our favor. Our public school teachers can do our race a lasting good by encouraging not only the patrons but the advanced pupils to read Negro papers. This writer in an address to the Shaw Summer school teachers emphasized this point in hopes of arousing their interest in this matter. I meet Negroes daily who tell me that they read daily papers and therefore keep posted on the current news of the day, most of whom are young. Then they recognize the fact that the daily papers they read are white men's papers and are issued for the purpose of enlightening the white race. Many of the young Negroes have never bought or read a Negro paper. Here is an important work that appeals to Negro teachers and preachers. BANKERS FIRE MAKING GOOD IN BUSINESS BANKERS FIRE MAKING GOOD IN BUSINESS Gross Business Written In First Six Months of Operations Exceeds Half Million Dollars. To Extend Field. ASSETS $150,000,00; OUTLOOK BRIGHT ( Special To Journal and Guide) Durham, N. C.—The first annual meeting of Banker's Fire Insurance Company, was held here on July 14th in the Company's offices on Fayetteville street. The attendance of stockholders, many of whom reside out-of-town was unusually large and the reports submitted by the officers and directors were very satisfactory—in fact to many they were surprising, as the progress shown was regarded as being unusual for a new company. Bankers' Fire Insurance Co. was chartered 1920 with an authorized capital stock of $500,000.00. Of which $150,000.00 has been paid. It is the first old line legal reserve fire insurance company to be chartered and put into operation upon Negro capital and under exclusive Negro management. It is significant that this pioneer Negro fire insurance company received its charter from a Southern state. Since it began operations it has received the most cordial co-operation from the strong white companies, the North Carolina rating bureau and has been admitted to the Southeastern Underwriters Association. The general counsel of the Co. is Cal. James R. Young, former Commissioner of Insurance for North Carolina. He was present at the meeting long enough to meet the stockholders and make an address to them, in the course of which he assured the stockholders that the company is managed efficiently, made many suggestions based upon his long experience as an insurance expert, twenty-six years of which were spent as Insurance Commissioner for the State of North Carolina.

THE MANAGEMENT In charge of the general offices of the company is Mr. W. Gomez, the secretary of the corporation, who is also general manager.

For several years he was in charge of the mission departments of the North Carolina Life Insurance Co., positions in which he demonstrated so conspicuous ability, he was unanimously chosen as the man to "put it over" when the idea of a fire insurance company first occurred to him and a number of his business associates.

PROGRESSIVE IN EVERY RESPECT PRICE FIVE CENTS SENTIMENT IN FAVOR NATION WIDE PROTEST Amazing Attitude of State and National Republican Leaders To Be Considered at Series of Conferences. VIRGINIANSTO LEAD MOVEMENT Virginia Republican _State Convention Bars Accredited Negro Delegates. It is an essential of free and efficient government that prisons chosen for, or appointed to, public office, should be those who are best qualified by character, education and experience to discharge the duties of such offices, and are truly representative of the communities which they serve. The white people of Virginia, constituting over two-thirds of its population, holding nearly 95 per cent of its property, with centuries of discipline and training in the difficult tasks of self government are charged with the solemn duty to all the people of this State to see that the State and local government of the Commonwealth are conducted and administrated in accordance with these self-evident principles. Not Political Question The solution of those delicate human problems, must be found in the application of moral principles, no tin political agitation; in practical justice founded upon facts; in a spirit of open-mindedness, sympathy and understanding by those immediately concerned of both races, having in view the higher interest of the State and the happiness and prosperity of all its people.—From Platform of Va. Republican State Convention. Newport News, Va.—At a conference held at the Bay Shore Hotel, Buckroo Beach, Sunday, the 17th last, and attended by a large number of representatives, colored voter of the first congressional district of Virginia, resolutions were adopted inviting race leaders representing the ministry, the professions, the farmers, labor organizations and other activities for every congressional district in the State to meet at an early date to discuss the present political conditions as they affect Afro-American conditions the State and to formulate a constitution the program by which colored voters in the State would be guided in future. Several speakers strongly resented the action of the recent session of the Virginia State Republican Convention in baring regularly accredited colored delegates, and censured the three colored man who permitted themselves to be used as political pawns by accepting seats in the gallery of the hall removed from their respective delegations. Dr. Philip A. Scott, of Newport News, was chairman, and Dr. J. Jones, of Hampton, secretary of the conference. This state-wide conference will be held in Richmond sometime in August telegraphic assurances of its support already having been received from prominent men, in all parts of the State, mary of whom have heretofore taken no active interest in the political activities of the State. Will Be Felt in Northern and Western States. Washington, D. C., July 21. A storm of resentment has arisen, that likely to become nation-wide in its scope, over the seeming policy of the present administration to permit white republicans to exclude Afro-Americans from party affairs in the South, over the disfruitful treatment accorded duly accredited Negro delegates at the Virginia State Republican convention, held at Norfolk, July 14th, when, for the first time in history of a Negro public convention, not a single Negro delegate was seated, the police being ordered to keep out all Negro leaders for admission, and when three regularly appointed gates with no contests pending against them, were forcibly ordered to leave the floor of that convention dominated by Congressman C. B. Sleep, member of the Republican National Committee and the leading adviser and spokesman of the present administration in the South. Only in Virginia, but Negro leaders everywhere, gain access to the treatment that has been, and is being accorded faithful Negro Republicans whose patriotism and party service have been so soon forgotten. Persistence has ceased to be a virtue, an intelligent, organized resentment of the part of Negro voters North of a South seems the only many alterations and the only motive power that will allow the Republican shack back to its traditional moorings, justice and fair play to all Americans without regard to race, color or previous conditions of servitude.

No Amusements For Colored Children In City Park City Planning To Provide "Jim Crow" Park For Their Recreation and Amusement. The Kiwanis Club of Norfolk, Va. recently took up with the city authorities the matter of amusements for colored children in the city park, one of the club members having reported to his fellows that "there was nothing there for their accommodation other than air and water." A separate park for their use, properly fitted out, is now under consideration; and member of the club states that, with due al- lation his haws' delays and the work of preparing it, the park can see the needed recreation facilities provided for the colored population. The idea of a separate park was taken up with the city management a few months ago by some interested colored people. The idea did not meet the general approval of the colony cities with as the separate park idea carrier with the "limited" segregation feature and just as all plans of this kind inaugurated by southern cities makes for inequality of treatment for a portion of the city's population. There are forty thousand colored people of Norfolk, every one a tax payer and up to this day a tax payer for democracy, colored people have had no punishments and precious little improvements for sanitation and beautification of their sections of the city. The death rate is high of course and the city is responsible. Improvements continue to go on in white sections, even in cities with no residences, but the Negro who lives there is the attar for this country is continually ignored. Some day Ethiopia will awake.

The convention did exactly what most well-informed members of the race expected it to do. Many will doubtless feel some resentment and humiliation at being perniciously exploited as a political issue. These may derive some satisfaction from the hope, even though it seems remote, that as the Republicans and the Democrats are now as one on the race question in politics we will escape being pilloried every time a campaign starts in city, county or state. The white people of all political faiths are not more anxious than the Afro-Americans themselves that the race be eliminated from politics—as an issue. That Afro-Americans should be eliminated altogether, from any participation whatever in the political affairs of the state, is a proposition so revolutionary in itself and so contrary to the spirit of democracy, and so inconsistent with the duties and responsibilities of citizenship placed upon all Americans, that it is hard to believe that the leaders of either party expect it to be accomplished. Admitting the mistakes of the past; admitting that the ballot is a dangerous instrument in the hands of those not qualified to use it; it is still the root of our civil liberties and the defense of our human rights, and it is something that cannot be taken away from these entitled to it by the stroke of a pen or the mere pronouncement of a political convention. What the convention really did was to give unqualified endorsement to a condition of affairs that already exists in the state of Virginia, a condition for which the Democrats are entitled to the major responsibility by reason of having promulgated it and the Republicans are entitled to the minor responsibility by reason of having promulgated it and the Democrats did. Until the election of President Harding, now the President organic did not either the legal power or the backing to put their agenda in effect. Since the Democrats gave Virginia a new constitution twenty years ago there have been a comparatively few Afro-American votes in the state and fewer of their minor importance held by members of the race. With Afro-Americans certainly out of the organization, with the national administration backing them and with the local police department on duty as their door-keepers one can not quite understand the dramatic elaboration of the race question by the convention leaders, except that it might be explained by attributing it to an honest desire upon the part of the organization to manufacture the sort of propaganda that it requires to seduce a Democrat, which is hard to do in the South, as the Philadelphia Record, in commenting on the Norfolk convention observes. "One may he permitted to wonder how the Republicans, who couldn't win when the Negroes were given full recognition and voted freely, can hope to carry the State when they themselves ostracize the black element of their party and draw the color line rigorously against it. The Negroes have always constituted the bulk of the Virginia G. O. P. When they are barred out under the new Republican policy, and the Democrats stand solid, how can victory be figured out?" The Democrats have always made a capital political issue out of the danger of "Negro domination." Now the Republicans adopt the same slogan as that used by the Democrats. But accepting Mr. Henry W. Anderson's own figures for the relative proportions of white and colored population and wealth in the state, one can not figure out how a race that comprises only one-third of the state's population and possesses only one twentieth of the state's wealth could ever attain the control of the government or enjoy any more than a bare representation in it except by agreement of the dominant race. No one can justly accuse Mr. Anderson, the convention's chief spokesman and nominee for governor, of being "brutally" frank in his statement of the party's position on the race question. When compared with similar efforts on the part of some statesmen native to our Southern country, Mr. Anderson's address and the plank he wrote into the platform were "gracious." While the spirit of his pronouncement wounds the sensibilities of all self-respecting Afro- Americans, the language of it is diplomatic, dignified, courteous and even generous. But because Mr. Anderson is sufficiently cultured to cloth his party's ultimatum in diplomatic language does not alter the fact that he is a symbol of the political system, representatives of both parties, that "flashes as once flashed the Sword of the Archangel at the gateway of our Peace" not our ambition to hold office, or to distress our majority neighbors of superior strength and experience, by efforts to lend it over them; but a human and justifiable ambition to carry whole citizenship where the duties and responsibilities of citizenship have been unquestionably fulfilled. The sequence of the convention's action is that the white people of the South desire to rid themselves of the one-party system of government. There is a large element of them in both parties that desires to put aside the race question in politics, and take up the questions involving the development of mining, manufacturing, transportation, tariff, commerce, foreign trade and all the great questions that have waited in the background while one party has perpetuated itself in office for forty years after reclaiming for the South an indigenous status in politics, and dissolved all of its energies and abilities to develop to their full possibilities the South's great natural resources by holding up before the people the deceptive secreta of a return to political conditions that have long since been made impossible by popular education, economic conditions and time. If more efficiency in government, less burdens of taxation, improved living conditions, more amicable racial relations and no exploitation of Afro-Americans as a political issue can be accomplished by the race quitting the Republican party as an entirety, the JOURNAL AND GUIDE is willing to accept with reservations, as they say—the challenge of the Republican organization to vote for the candidates of either party that are "personally acceptable" and devote its best thought and energies to the evolution of a new and constructive program for the guidance of Afro-Americans of the state in their future political activities. LYNCHING AND DEPT SLAVERY William Pickens, who is not only field secretary of the Association for the Advancement of Colored People but a writer for the press who has made a splendid reputation for high thinking and direct characterization of men and measures, says: "Lynching and mob violence are only methods of economic repression. Lynching is most prevalent where Negro labor is most exploited; and the spread of mob violence against colored people has followed the spread of this exploitation. It is either due directly to efforts of the exploiting class to repress the Negro, or it is the indirect recruitment of the laborers of other racial groups against the exploitation of Negro labor to their disadvantage. This is the difference between Georgia and East St. Louis. The chain of causes which leads from the economic wrong to the Lynching may take different directions. It may be that the Negro is the chief labor element, as on the farms of Arkansas, and that the landed employer class will resort to Lynching to keep Negroes down, even by a great massacre, as at Elaine, Ark., in 1919. Or it may be that the Negro is a newcomer in need of a job, used by the employers as a tool with which to beat down all labor, and we may therefore see the spectacle of white laborers making an indirect attack upon the system by killing black laborers, as in East St. Louis in 1917." We do not believe that the case could be more correctly and directly stated than Mr. Pickens has done it. The race problem, as far as Afro-Americans are concerned, is sharply differentiated into two elements: Citizen rights and economic rights. Debt-slavery and the chattle slavery crushed by the civil war are inseparably associated in their origin and development. Neither can prevail where the rights of citizenship are not abridged or denied. Tenant farming and the debt-slave system are inseparable. The denial of citizen rights makes possible tenant farm servitude and debt-slavery, and mob law is invoked to enforce exactions growing out of such a condition. BONUS LEGISLATION AND NATIONAL FINANCES President Harding has deemed it necessary to appear in person before Congress and deliver a protest against the enactment of the proposed bonus legislation at this time, which would disarrange the finances of the Nation and entail upon tax payers additional burdens which they are not prepared to sustain without great suffering. Secretary Mellon of the Treasury had made a like protest, showing that the finances of the treasury were not in a condition to admit of the bonus legislation and the vast expenditures which it would be required to furnish the gratuities to the former service men, but the President did not think the Secretary's protest sufficient to prevent the legislation, and so resorted to the direct appeal. President Harding made it very plain that he favored proper provision being made for disabled soldiers and the widows and orphans of soldiers, and showed what the Government has done and was doing in this respect; but he did not think that this was the time to enact legislation which would give gratuities to former service men the amount of which it would be impossible to estimate in advance. Billions of dollars might be required. The JOURNAL, AND GUIDE is of the opinion that the Secretary of the Treasury and the President are entirely right in their contention, but that they do not go far enough. When the Nation has made proper provision for disabled soldiers and for the widows and orphans of those who lost their lives in battle, with the exemptions and privileges that are given former service men, it has done as much as the contract calls for and as it should be expected to do. The matter of the bonus, a free gift off the reel, to millions of men, we consider as a raid on the Treasury, a sort of "Stand and Deliver," backed up by the organized force of the American Legion, which has come to imagine that American patriotism is in their keeping and that the American people must do about as they dictate. The attitude of the Ku Klux Klan and of the American Federation of Labor is about the same as that of the American Legion, and the attitude is a menace to National authority and well being. The soldiers of the late war received $30 per month and their keep, and were protected by war risk insurance, and they were better treated than the soldiers of any other Nation or the soldiers in any former wars. The Government owes them appreciation and gratitude, but no cash bonus and is in no financial condition to give them any. DISARMAMENT AND THE PEACE OF THE WORLD President Harding has responded to the compelling wish of the people of all nations for a conference on disarmament. The armed state of the Nations, and the necessity of spending vast wealth on maintaining costly armies and navies, and for sustaining the same, it is generally felt and acknowledged is draining the life-blood of the Nations, when there appears on the surface nothing to justify the existence of such a ruinous condition of affairs. This has been true all of the time, but never more so than now, after the destruction of man power and money values in the World War, when all of the Nations that had part in it are suffering from their losses and the necessity of rebuilding their waste places, as well as making proper provision for the handling of their fabulous indebtedness. The United States feeds the pinch of the shoe, in common with the other Nations, but not in as aggravated sense as they, and it is in a position of helpfulness in itself and towards the Nations as none of the others are; still, it is crippled in all of its life, and its citizens are called upon to carey tax burdens which should be lightened by wise action in disarmament and retrenchment in the expenditures of the Government wherever this can be done without impairing the efficiency of the machinery of the Government. Secretary of State Hughes, by direction of the President, in outlining the Disarmament Invitation to the Allied and Associated Powers, which includes the United States, Great Britain, France, Italy, Japan and China, shows how closely the question of disarmament is related to the peace of the world, which is generally desired, in the following statement: "It is manifest that the question of limitation of armaments has a close relation to Pacific and Far Eastern problems, and the President has suggested that the Powers especially interested in these problems should undertake in connection with this conference the consideration of all matters bearing upon their solution with a view to reaching a common understanding with respect to principles and policy in the Far East. This has been communicated to the Powers concerned and China has also been invited to take part in the discussion relating to Far Eastern problems." It is the expectation and the hope that all of the Powers will participate in the Conference when it meets in Washington, perhaps on Armistice Day, and that the vexed problems it will be called to consider may be solved in the interest of the harrassed tax-payers of the world. 96 ACTIVE CASES OF TUBERCULOSIS Richmond, July 21—The Virginia Tuberculosis Association and the State Board of Health report the findings of clinics held in Augusta, Fauquier, Nansenadoh, Princess William and Shenadoh counties, summarized as follows: Total examined for Tuberculosis cases were active, 37 were arrested, 88 had diseased tonsils, 84 had diseased teeth, and 35 showed defective hearts.

NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE Those who are working for the spiritual, intellectual, industrial and the physical welfare of our people, have a great interest in common. While there have been notable exceptions, all are agreed that in general a sound physical basis is essential to the most creative spiritual, intellectual and industrial life. Why should we work for Health & Thrift? Health & Thrift, of course, are good things in themselves. They add to the enjoyment of living. Health and Thrift are useful in the general social and physical welfare of the individual. Health & Thrift are necessary for personal economic success—perhaps the greatest economic assets. Is this all health? Are we justified in preaching health and thrift for the sake of health and thrift? Why in particular does the Community Health and Thrift Center feature just two interests in Norfolk, namely, the physical and economic welfare of our people? Why should all the agencies and individuals be lined up, unselfishly and whole heartedly, with those who are fighting for health and thrift in Norfolk? Health and thrift are not valuable for themselves alone. They are to be valued not only for the PHYSICAL, SOCIAL, and ECONOMIC reasons above mentioned. Health and Thrift will cut down poverty, intense suffering and that high death rate among our people The greatest justification for health and thrift is SPIRITUAL. The importance of a strong physical and economic basis is for a tral spiritual life. Health and Thrift are essential to a broader community life along all lines. Health and Thrift are vital mediums for the more beautiful expression of the spiritual life of man. Health and Thrift will make the necessary foundation for the future spiritual evolution of the individual, the community and our nation. The Community Health and Thrift Center is the medium through which our people can come together and work for a bitter and healthier living condition. The physicians have already made the assaulting attack. They are to be heavily reinforced by the ministers and business men of the town. The entire community is expected to join in this Health and Thrift movement. VERY GRATIFYING (N. Y. Age, July 9, 1921) It is gratifying to note that the clergy is beginning to see and understand the mission of the stage. It is not often that words of commendation fall upon the ears of the theatrical artists as uttered by ministers of the gospel. Condemnation is usually characteristic of their remarks. Unless a rule is absolute in itself, there is generally an exception to it. A happy departure from the custom of the clergy to condemn the thespian, may be found in the person of the Rev. Dr. Lawton, who so adly conducted the funeral obsequies over the remains of the late Bobby Kemp at Bethel A. M. E. Church, Sunday, June 26th. Among other things, he said: "To little attention is often paid to the importance and value of the theatrical profession. If it has its faults and failures it is not different from other professions. The virtues of the stage should not be minimized but encouraged." As an artist of nearly a quarter century's experience I can thoroughly agree with the good pastor, and I believe that all real artists do. Along with other professions and vocations, that of the stage should be accorded its rightful and proper place. We bring cheer and comfort to an aching heart or throbbing brain sometimes when no other remedy seems able to alleviate these ills. Good and bad seem to make up this old world of ours and if a nefast character happens to creep into a group of theatrical artists it is (while not polluting such) no more than what happens to other organizations, even if you please, the church. Not only do we amuse and entertain, but many charitable acts St. Peter can put down to our credit. Those with glaueners, punch cards, tags, missionary boxes, tickets, and the like, invariably find their way to the stage door and from thence into the hearts and purses of all the performers. The financial response is always generous. The present stage has, like other professions, developed by due process of evolution. A striking example may be seen in Charlie Gilpin, who has so recently covered himself with glory. The stage is no longer made up of a class of lewd women, lascivious men, crap shooters and degenerates, but on the contrary, men and women of education and character, thrift and economy. Don't draw your skirts away from the girl upon the stage, when your own might not be immaculately free from sin. Don't feel that when you are presented to a male artist that you will meet a whisky breath with the introduction. This admiration is not entirely for the clergy, but any and all who do not know the present day artist. Again let me say it is gratifying to hear from such divines as Dr. Lawton. FRANK B. WILLIAMS, in New York Age. To afford an opportunity for the ministers and other friends of Kittrell College to be benefited by the mineral water of the famous "Kittrell Springs" and to enjoy the natural beauty, cool, shady lawns and trees, which is one's sole to enjoy at Kittrell, the most prestigious agreed to open the institution ing the month of August as a resort, at the minimum charges of $1 to $1.50 per day. Because of the great number planning to come, it will be necessary for those desiring accommodation to write the president of Kittrell College, Mr. John, time they expect to spend, by July 30th. G. A. Edwards, President. 7-23-21. The Blyden Library Virginia with a Negro population of 700,000 is without a single public library for colored people. Here is a circumstance that one contemplates with a growing sense of something seriously amiss in our scheme of education. There are small collections of books in a few of the larger colored schools but these are for the most part available only to the pupils. For that large literate colored population that is too old to attend school and too poor to buy books of its own, neither public foresight nor private benefaction has made provision. Against this background of stark neglect, the opening of a branch public library in a room set aside for this purpose in the Booker Washington High School takes rank as a pioneer event of the first importance. The Blyden branch library is to begin modestly. No other kind of beginning is possible in the straightened financial condition of the parent Norfolk Public Library. But the smallness of the beginning is overshadowed by the bigness of its promise. A definite branch has been made in the pulle's indifference to the reading facilities of censure of the State's population. There is no over-estimating the importance of this venture into a completely neglected field of intellectual development. It is a venture that should receive the generous support of the municipal government as well as of the public-spirited citizens of both races. The first Virginia public library for colored people will commemorate in its name the conspicuous public service of a gifted member of the race—Edward Wilmot Blydon, Presbyterian preacher, college president, Liberian minister at London, and secretary of state of the Liberian African Republic. No one realized better the virtue of education or the value of judicious reading than this native of the West Indies who roke from ignorance to the mystery of seven languages and a position of commanding influence in the cultural enterprises of his race. The Blydon branch of the Norfolk Public Library is appropriately named. It is the testimony of the librarian of the Norfolk Public Library that the reading of books under wholesome conditions makes for good citizenship. Few lovers of books become criminals. The observation is supported by all educators. At the recent graduation exercises at the Booker Washington High School the principal produced statistics to show that in seven years no graduate of the school had been arrested. The fiction has too commonly been accepted in the South as true that education tends to make the colored race fictious and irresponsible. The records of the colored schools and colleges establish the contrary. The literate colored man or woman is the most law-abiding. It should be the constant effort of the State and the community to redeem its colored population from the menace that is inseparable from illiteracy, and to this end to provide not only public schools but public libraries to continue the intellectual development of which the schools can lay only the foundation. Succeeding as Commission Merchant Mr. W. T. Phifer, wholesale commission merchant at 43 W. 132nd street, New York City, was in Norfolk Sunday for a few hours: Mr. Phifer is a hustling young man of good Southern stock who has made good in business in the North. He is one of the few colored men who have succeeded in the commission merchant business. Mr. Phifer's daily business runs into large figures and he enjoys a substantial rating with the a native of New York, NC. He has been spending some days in Elizabeth City where he is a director of the Albemarle Bank and other business enterprises. Enlist Taxpayers As Trench Diggers Sherrill, N. Y., July—This, the most youthful city in the state, will undertake to solve the cost of labor problem by enlisting taxpayers as trench diggers for its recently authorized sewer system. More than 400 men, from all walks of life, clerks, lawyers, doctors, merchants and at least two clergymen—were volunteers, on hand with picks and shovels last Tuesday morning to start work on the first section. The length of the working day is optional with the workers. Any one may knock off when blisters and backache become so painful as to reduce efficiency.

Mrs. Miller spoke of the Negro Department and its possibilities. The meeting closed after it had been declared the best get held in this section of its kind. Much praise is due to Sir. M. C.

NON-ALCHOHIC FLAVORS Concentrated non-alcoholic flavors were introduced into this country possibly about fifteen years ago. Non-alcoholic flavors have been used exclusively in Germany ever since the idea of flavoring foods originated. The process of making these flavors is simple, but wholesome. American scientists found that the substitution of glycerol in non-alcoholic vegetable gum for water produces a pure, stronger, healthier, and cheaper flavor. The flavors are manufactured in vanilla, all the fruits, spices, food colors, and vegetables, are of superior quality and greatly appreciated by our many customers. The same is true in our full line of toilet preparations. It is the privilege, it may be said the duty of developing her beauty. Newcomer afford to lose her most valuable charm, become wrinkled.

ORITE MAGAZINE They had not spoken to each other for twenty-two years, and during that time nine children had been born to them. When the first child was two years old they had had a bitter exchange of words—nuns that could not be forgiven on either side. But a time after the fierce quarrel the second child entered this world, so although she had sworn never to speak—"until their dying day"—they continued to live together as man and wife. This happened years ago, when a divorce was a very rare proceeding and a home was so warm deserted, even by the greatest provocation. When they were married he was nineteen and she sixty-two, at the end of twenty-two years but were still young. It was strange that youth could be so stubborn. This was explained by their Puritan ancestry, from which they inherited the fronbound obstinacy they termed principle. The spoken word must be kept at any cost. It was a strange life, but during all these years the tragedies, accidents and comedies of existence had not broken the silence. It was an exceedingly old but not unpleasant experience to visitors to enter into such a home life. Contrary to expectations, all were exceptionally entertaining, with all the museums and persons of culture the musicians and agreeable companions. It is fact, the household was noted for its charming hospitality. Any information required or which was desired given by the parents was transferred through the children by word of mouth, or, if too young, the subject matter was written and delivered in that form. It was quite convenient, there were so many children. Neither parent tried to lower the other in the estimation of the children; it was simply a case of each keeping his dignity preserved and his word instruct. There were weddings and death in the home, but even these did not alter the situation. If the house had burned it would still have been the same. All the children "turned out" exceedingly well, the oldest developing into a skilful surgeon. One day in summer he and his wife were visiting the old homestead, which was stituted in the country. The weather was exceptionally hot—so hot that no one had been able to sleep well for several nights. The doctor made some lemonade and took it out to the family, who were all sitting under the twin maples in the front yard. In a short time it was roffered that the father was sleeping. Not until supper was ready anyone try to wake him. When it was tried he could not be roped. Alarmed, they carried him to the house and laid him on a couch in the living room. The doctor stayed with him until the others finished the hurried meal, when the sleeper awoke. He looked at his son and impaired what had happened. "I think, father, your heart may be a little wrong—don't you think—in case anything should happen—you had better tell mother your wishes?" A surprising book of gladness—for a dying person—flashed over the father's face. "Yes, son, bring mother." But mother's face was twisted with grief as she threw herself upon the prostrate form. "Mary?" "John?"—simultaneously. The doctor left the room and appeared to the astounded children with a wide grin on his face. "They are having a heavenly time in there," directing his thumb toward the door he had just emerged from—"the sweetest honeymeadow—they are the mushiest, spoulestest couple you could imagine. I gave father a stiff dose of bromide in his lemonade; there's not a thing ails him. I just took advantage of a good opportunity. Pretty tough treatment to cause a man to think he might be dying, but I thought "oe case needed and deserved it." Replanting North Woods There are people who have never been above Trop, N. Y., who nevertheless speak wisfully of the north woods. They have been expecting to visit that inspiring wilderness for years and will plan for it for years to come, whether they ever go or not. If they knew how dangerously those reaches of forest, though they seem almost endless, have been threatened by fire and the pulp mill's maw they would rejoice to hear that Quebec now is planting two pine or spruce trees for every one that is destroyed. So the north woods will still be there when at last your hunting trip is made. Three million pines and spruces have been planted this year. Beavers Multiply Rapidly Beavers in the national forests have increased rapidly within the last few years, a count made by rangers of the forest service, United States Department of Agriculture, shows. Two years ago in the Cochetopa forest in southwestern Colorado there were 200 beavers, estimating four or five inhabitants to each house, a conservative estimate. This year there are 12,000 of the animals. This rapid increase of family among the beaver tribe insures plenty of the popular fur for military's wear for an indefinite time if the laws which now protect the animal are not relaxed too much. APPOINTED EVANGELIST (By The Associated Negro Press) Baton Roe, La., July.—Rev. L. T. Robertson, evangelist, has been ap- pointed director of the Louisiana district in the efficiency campaign of the General Conference of Negro Free Baptists. The quota for Louisiana has been set for $30,000, and active work of gathering the amount has begun. LOOT STORES OF FIELD MICE North Dakota Indians Raid Caches of Delicacy, but Always Leave Corn in Its Place. In the northern part of North Dakota there grows a bean which is related to the peanut and of which the Indians of that section are very fond. As each plant bears but a single bean, the labor of gathering them would be very great, but the field mice of that section gather the beans and hide them for winter consumption in underground storehouses. The Indians know how to locate the caches and in the autumn they go forth and rob them, but the supplies are invariably replaced with corn or some other grain which the Indians have in plenty, so that the little harbor bears not starved. The beans have a delicious flavor and are highly prized. In the course of a few days' hunt one Indian may gather two bushels, a few quarts being secured from each of the underground storehouses. The Indians say that this method of gathering food from mouse boards dates back to prehistoric times, but the traditions of the tribes protect the mice in that it is taught that dire punishment falls upon those who take the beans without replacing them with corn.—Chicago Journal, Portable Radiotelephone The pocket telephone has been brought a step nearer by the assembling of the necessary radiophone apparatus into a compact unit having a weight of about 60 pounds. As a potential of only six volts to each is required to operate the receiver and oscillator bulbs the low capacity "B-type" batteries are dispensed with according to an Illustrated article in the December Popular Mechanics Magazine. The low voltage required is available almost anywhere, as two six-volt batteries are easily procureable from any automobile battery service station. The new unit is especially designed for the use of motorists, schismers, campers and isolated farms. Under ordinary conditions it is said that the new instrument may be depended upon to operate satisfactorily over distances of from live to 650 miles. Colored Man Lensmaker The Salasky Optical Co., 743 Candler St. this city beats of having one of the finest equipped lens making plants in this city. Every lens which they use is made in this plant from the round pumbel blank to the finished product and, after surfacing plant is in charge of Lee Carey, a young colored man. Lee Carey first came into the employ of the Salasky plant in August 1920. At that time he had no knowledge whatever of the art of lens-making and in less than a year's time under the tutelage of Dr. Arthur Salasky, he has mastered the work until today he personally supervises the surfacing department. It would take too much space here to describe the process a lens undergoes in the process of manufacture but Mr. Carey extends a cordial in touch to his many friends and the public to give his gift to the plant and he will be able to show them every step a lens must go through before the weaver puts it before his eye. Carey is perhaps the only colored man in Virginia if not in the entire South who is engaged in the work of ophthalmic lens-making and other young men in search of a career would do well to follow his start, because the field is not overcrowded and it is a calling which yields a large income once a man becomes proficient in it. MODERATOR J. H. ASHBY OF THE TIDEWATER PENNSULA RAPT ASSOCIATION ISSUES A GENERAL CALL. To the Church and Brethren through the district, Greetings:— Dear Co-workers and friends, this letter will remind you that the time of the Twenty-Second Annual Session of our great Association it not far off. Our record is to be up to our past record it is imperatively necessary that you begin now (if you have not done so) to make preparation, and not leave the hope of our success contingent on chance. The Association will meet Wednesday August 17th, with the First Baptist church "Lamberts Point" (Norfolk). Rev. David Johnsons Pastor, Rev. David Jones, a favorite location of the church it will be invited to a large delegation will be present, and preparations are being made to that end. Let nothing hinder you from coming.

Tidings from the various parts of the district tell not only of the successes you have already attained, but of the splendid prospects which are still before you, we must accept the task which has been assigned to us, and disciples of men." And as your standard bearer I feel that we can do this. --- OF WOMEN in a very splendid way by increasing our commitment for Education and Missions. The offer I am up to that we realize our duty and likewise our opportunity as never before. M. B. REV. J. H. ASHBY The object of our Education exederae is our school at Lynchburg. We love it, and we support it, because it is ours. It represents the forethought of our futures, and the hope of shaping it. And school believes and teaches us moral self help and a moral belief that the university and College is to be a place where we shall shape the future of the New York City. The university believes now we are not just a institution, but a necessary place as large as ours. From the mission fields come a call for restraint, and it must ever be remembered and it to give the gospel to the world is our task. The State Mission board needs funds in order to continue the work in Virginia. The Foreign Mission Board needs funds in a station to the continent of Africa. Let us all share these responsibilities, not as a sacrifice but as a duty. The Battle Cry for this year is $2,000 to be used for the causes above stated. Come and bring your pat. Trusting that we shall see you all, and that the Holy Spirit will attend you for Christ, we should be yours for Christ and His cause. J. H. ASHBY, Moderator, SJH Washington Ave., Norfolk, Va.

RELIGIOUS NEWS :- FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH In the absence of the pastor last Sunday, the pulpit was filled by Rev. Chas. S. Morris, the master preacher and center. Dr. Morris delivered a soul-chilling sermon from the subject, "The Great Tribulation," text Matt. 22:21:22; Luke 22:38. The speaker stressed the importance of sermons keeping on the watchful eye of believers acknowledging the Savior before its late fate. One young man happily converted during this service, and this conversion was witnessed at the Sunday school. An excellent program was rendered in the B. Y. U. The Holy Communion service was largely attended and greatly enjoyed. In keeping with the announcement of the morning service Dr. Morris finished his sermon "The Great Tribulation" in the evening. Comment was general that this was one of the greatest instructive sermons ever listened to. His knowledge and explanation of the book of Matthew was greatly inspiring. There were two confessions during this service. Everybody cordially invited to services this Sunday morning and evening. JOHN M. BROWN A. M. E. CHURCH. The Sunday school was opened at 1:30, m. by the Superintendent Mr James W. Davis. The school is doing great work. At the morning service Dr. Cotton delivered a rich gospel song, "The Lord Is My Shepherd," 1:19. "My God Shall Supply all your needs according to His Riches in Glory by Christ Jesus." At night Dr. Cotton preached another wonderful sermon taking his text from 2nd Kings 6:12. It was a gospel treat. "The Lord Is My Shepherd," 1:19. God, Come and hear him. Visitors and friends are always welcome to all of our services. ST. JOHN'S A. M. E. CHURCH. The attendance last Sunday was good. The pulpit was filled by the pastor morning and evening. The annual sermon to the Widows Circle was preached at the evening hour, and the pastor and students meeting and afterwards gave quite an interesting sketch of the World Christian Endeavor Convention recently held in New York. He was followed by Mr. Levy Gregan who spoke briefly and promised a more detailed report. The attendance was 630 with 15 men in the Orchestra and 23 of the chair on duty. The Ever Ready Circle will give their annual invitation to little Bay Beach on Tuesday, the 26th and extends a most cordial invitation to all their friends to go with them. The pulpit will fill his morning and evening on next Sunday. The Mite Missionary Society will conduct a Pew Rally in the afternoon. METROPOLITAN A. M. E. ZION CHURCH. Our services on last Sunday were largely attended and very interesting from every point of view. The Sunday school at 1:33:00 was a source of much inspiration and very largely attended. The Excelsior class was the honour class in our school last day. At the morning preaching hour the pastor, Rev. N. D. King filled his pulpit and was greeted by an over-low attendance eager to hear the Word. He delivered an excellent gospel message at this service to the delight of his many hearers. At the close of this excellent sermon there were four accessions to the church and two children received in the church by baptism. At the evening service the pastor again filled his pulpit and another strong and forceful sermon was well received by those present. Collections for the day, 821987. Next Sunday will be rally day in our church, we are hoping to raise $2,300 in this effort and pay off the bonded indebtedness on our church. It is certainly hoped that each and every member will come up on next Sunday and let us make a clean sweep of this little annoying indebtedness. Strangers, visitors and friends are always welcome to all of our services. GRACE P. E. CHURCH Our church school last Sunday was fine in attendance, the music inspiring. Taking into consideration the season of the year we have no complaint to make. The gathering at the very beginning of the church was very sensuous of the church, the soul-stirring, the chair having been by the organist sung to the delight of the audience. The rector was at his best and preached a sermon very impressive and eloquent, several members at the close thanked him for a helpful discourse. Everybody must be to church and receive spiritual for us, we look for you this Sunday? We are made to make known and to say thanks to all who helped to make the excursion a success. SECOND CALVARY BAPTIST CHURCH Services in our church were indeed good. The early morning prayere service began at 6:30, quite a few were there. The Sunday school opened at 9:30, the school fully explained, subject, "The Conversion of Saul." Several visitors were present. At 11:30 Rev. Bontonh of South France was preached to a large audience from the church to his letter. His message was a powerful one. One person was happily converted. At 3:30 our pastor, the choir and congregation worshipped with Rev. Midgett's church in Douglas Park, every seat was taken. Our pastor preached an excellent sermon, every heart rejoiced as he spoke to us out of God's word. At 5:30 the Junior B. U., rendered a excellent program, visual visitors were present which made occasion interesting. We are always glad to have them. 7:30 the prayer service by Bro. Burton. At 8:00 p.m. the pastor preached a wonderful sermon from Eze. 34:29, subject, "Plant of Renown," every one was loud in their praise over the message. He then sang a good spiritual song which kept the fire burning. Everything is ready for lvor on the first, train and for lvor on the last, for adults, $1.40; children under five free, over 75 cents. Accessions, two collections $275.75. THE LOTT CAREY BAPSTIST HOSTS IN NEWARK, N. J. TUESDAY, AUGUST, 30 TO SEPTEMBER 4 The Lott Carey Baptist Foreign Mission Convention will meet this year in Newark, N. J., upon the in- citation of the Bethany Baptist church, Dr. E. E. Ricks, pastor. This co. invitation is one of the most unique bodies of Baptists in this country in that at its meetings nothing is considered other than foreign miss- SIONs. This gathering of Baptists is concerned only in giving the Gospel to those who have it not and in going to Newark will not deviate from its constitutional will. It will interest, no doubt, the public to know that this organization has given to foreign missions more than 80% of all money coming into its hands since its first session. The increase of its finance has been pheno- mical, for at the last session, which twenty-third, it raised in round numbers about forty thousand dollars. When it was organized it began work with one missionary and his wife. Today it has forty-one missionaries in its employment in foreign lands, including Haiti. When it was organized it operated only in the Conde de Liberia, West Africa, Nassau, and Zuluband, East and Central Africa, co-operating in South Africa, operating in South America and Haiti. The slogan for this year is for at least fifty thousand dollars at the Newark meeting. It is a challenge to Baptists everywhere as to missionary work. Will the challenge be accepted? If so, report at Newark, for the best of its great, but also white with ripened hair, few laborers here at home are few, whom compared as to numbers and opportunities. The Lott Carey Convention is also an answer to prayer and a challenge to our churches here in America. The above question has been prayed too many times and the churches have gathered together to gather too few, but today there are about forty applications upon the waiting list of our Convention for service in foreign lands. Many of these would be accepted and employed but for the need of increased offerings so as to pay them for service. The question again applies to exist? Let those who wish to help in the solution of every human problem join in with us in sending the Gospel of Christ into the neglected portions of the world which alone can solve every question. Meet the Lott Carey Convention in Newark and study its method of work and spirit and help the work Kingdom on from conquest to comment. 7-9-4-1 FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH BOLLING BROOK. We have placed our hands in God's hand, and regardless to the many oppositions that face us daily we earnestly believe that our success can not be hindered. The Sabbath school seems to be receiving karma on Sunday. The postage E. W. Willis had last Sunday in York County, and the pulpit was filled at both morning and evening services by Rev. Clark of Norfolk, he used for his text at the evening hour, "Go Forward." Mr. John Matthson an old resident of Norfolk is baptized on last Saturday and for that the B. Y. P. F., was poorly attended. The rainbow wedding given here by Mrs. A. M. Washington two weeks ago was repeated last Monday night at the First Baptist church of Logan Park. Rev. Clarence E. Redd of Fredericksburg, Vn., will conduct a retreat service for one week beginning Monday, July 25th. THE SALVATION JULY STATISTICAL REPORT ON RELIEF AND SPIRITUAL WORK. After thirteen months of hard struggles, we are pleased to announce to the kind people of Norfolk the good accomplished through their co-operation. STATISTICAL RELIEF WORK Summer outing for poor mothers and children, at Little Bay Beach, we were able to secure this place free of charge through Mrs. P. Young, a kind volunteer dedicated to their services free of charge through Mr. W. A. Traynham, 125 poor mothers and children were taken to the beach, Christmas dinner to the people, 211; Candies, peanuts and oranges with toys given to poor children, 100; Thanksgiving dinner given to windows and porchings, 25; Musical activities during the winter, 31; Groceries to need families, 10; Lodgings secured for destitute people, 120; Shoes given to poor, 20; Clothes given to poor, 30. Number street services conducted, 302; Attendance to street service, 28781; Indoor services, 155; Attendance to indoor service, 2361; Conversion—The public will be convinced that this work and the success has meant real sacrifice to myself and co-workers, and we are hoping with the help of our kind friends this coming year to do better, although it seems, owing to our financial condition at present unless the public come to our help we won't be able to have our poor mothers and children's summer outing, we need your kind help in this worthy cause. ST. JAMES A. M. E. CHURCH The Sunday school was presided over by Bro. Joseph Moore, the assistant Superintendent J. E. Fulford was confined to his bed. Delegates elected to the Sunday school institute are Mr. Joseph Moore, Mrs. Ella Bell, Blanche Perry, Misses Mary McCoy, Rebecca James, Evn Archer, Charity Hickdill, and Riddick. Riddick we met a wonderful shower of God's spirit when the pastor, Dr. Scott preached to a full house. His text being, Judges 11:35, "I have opened my mouth to the Lord and cannot go back." At 3:00 o'clock in the afternoon Rev. Custis from South Choir and congregation worshiped, choir and congregation worshiped, the auspices of the Junior Stewardship Committee of Riddick, President, A. C. E. League was well attended. M. C. Recheca NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE James who was a delegate to the World's C. E. League gave echoes from the convention which convened in New York last week. Dr. Scott filled his pulpit at the evening service. The spirit of God dwelt with us throughout the day. We want our presence at our mid-week nad Sunday services. OCEANA CIRCUIT The services at St. Mark A. M. E. Church last Sunday were well attended. The Sunday school had a very profitable session. Dr. West, the pastor, preached enthusiastically from Prov. 11:25, subject "The Library of God." At night the pastor, choir of God, greeted the church, Greenwich wished at Mt. Zion A. M. E. church, Norfolk, Rev. Dr. J. H. A. Martin, pastor. The picnics of both St. Mark and St. John Sunday schools held at Broad Creek Mission grounds and on the lawn of St. Marks church respectively were occasions of much enjoyment and pleasure for the students a week. The Grand Lodge Sessions of the Baltimore Union and Ladies of America were held at St. John's church, Greenwich, last Tuesday and Wednesday, Rev. West made the welcome address. Little Helena Dozier, grand daughter of Mrs. Armery Harper, was invited to the reception. B Ferebee of 655 Princess Anne Ave, Norfolk is doing very satisfactory work in hair dressing among the members of St. Mark church, Oceana. HOLY TEMPLE CHURCH Rev. Dr. Charles S. Morris, Sr. fresh from his great western tour and his visit to Canada, will occupy his own pulpit at Holy Temple, on Chapel street, this Sunday morning and evening, July 21th. The Doctor will be ordered to attend the day. Hundreds will be pleased to hear of his return and delight to greet him. A very cordial welcome is extended to everyone to attend. BOLLING BROOK BAPTIST CHURCH Sunday was a great day at the Baptist Church. The Sunday school was well attended. Under the leadership of Miss Lillian Brown, the B. Y. P. U. is doing excellent work. The pastor preached at both morning and evening services. Deacon Harris Spence of Gloucester County worshiped here Sunday night. He recently lost his brain and spastic collection was lifted for him. Mr. John Murthono died July 16, and was buried July 17th. Mrs. Harrington is still on the sick list. Rev. J. E. Dean, pastor, Deacon S. H. Holmes, church clerk, Circular Letter, No. 4 Richmond, Va., July 15, 1921. To the Officers and Members of Schools, Unions, Associations and Conventions, Composing the Va. Rapid State S. Co. Convention—Dear Christian S. Co. Workers: As the time of our annual meeting approaches, we desire to remind you of some phases of our work. OUR MISSIONARIES. As stated in previous circular letters, we have a larger missionary force this year than was ever employed in the history of our Convention. Reports from our regular missionary Rev. M. T. Boone, B. D., and the auxiliary forces, consisting of Revs. H. C. Pearson, Geo. T. Rouson, I. G. Gladden, and M. L. Michion are full of encouragement and are concurring to the wisdom of having attempted to work for this year on such an extensive effort. We hope that many new schools and R. Y. P. U's will join us at Charlottesville as the result of the efforts of our missionaries. At any rate, we know that the work of our Convention will become known in places, hitherto unreached and that the gospel as preached by our missionaries will bear a rich harvest in coming years. ELECTION OF DELEGATES. We are our attention to the necessity of electing delegates and forwarding their message to Mrs. Virginia Edwards, 320 Dilr. St. Charlotteville, Va., so that the local committee can be in position to assign delegates to homes. The delegates and members of the Convention are required to pay $1.50 per day for board and lodging. OUR QUOTA. Our quota for 1921 is $6,500.00, which must be raised in order to place our work upon a permanent and sub-unit basis and to provide for necessary maintenance. Our aim is to have a Sunday School school quality in Virginia and a B. Y. P. U. in each church. Will you not help us to realize this ambition? See that you bring or send to Charlottesville your full quota and more, if possible. The State B. U. OF MEETING. The State B. U. OF MEETING its opening session Wednesday, August 24, 1921 at 8 p. m.

WRITE FOR DETAILS AGENTS WANTED TYSON & CO PARIS, TENN (© 1920, Western Newpaper Union) "A kindly, gracious lady, doubtlessly," observed Mrs. Carter Holmes lightly, "but I understand she has seen her day." "Yes," nodded her visitor, Mrs. Varney. "They had money once and quite ruled the social destinies of Willston. Everything went in a bank crash and they have moved here to feel less the humiliation of their affairs." "Of course she will have the wisdom and prudence not to break into our circle, Mrs. Wharton and her daughter Isola must be in a measure, shall we say, unsophisticated and crude." "I think that about expresses it," nodded Mrs. Varney, and so these two active outposts of society dismissed the theme. No notice would have been taken of Mrs. Emice Marston if she had not been an old college friend of Mrs. Vera Reprogle. The latter ruled society and her word was law in its operation. She had quietly told some chosen friends the history of the Whartons, and had given them to understand pretty well that she intended to quite recognize them and insist upon their doing so also. Certainly when the Whartons first appeared in a public social way they could find no fault with the dignity, graciousness and refinement of Mrs. Wharton. As to the daughter Isola, those who were not fully charmed with her loveliness and pretty ways were jenious debauchates, or their scheming mothers, for young Harold Reprogle manifestly was attracted toward her from the start. "Oh, you needn't imagine that Mrs. Reprogle is doing anything more than courteously showing attention to an old friend." instigated Mrs. Varney, who had a daughter on her hands. "This is obligatory and quite the thing to do. But, trust me, she will not see her son thrown away on a peninsula like like Isola Wharton." There were frowns and shrugs, however, when at a second social function Mrs. Reprogle made Isola quite the queen of the occasion. Following this was a grand and exclusive occasion at a tea, where the creature of bond society was supposed to be invited and invitations were not literally given. That was a good deal of secret longing for the distinction of "pouring" at the function, and the hopes of the ambitious ladies eager to push themselves forward were ardent and in evidence whenever two or more of the social set discussed the coming tea. "Mrs. Reprogle is so queer," commented Mrs. Carter Holmes. "She thinks more of giving some lonely, obscure person happiness than keeping strictly within ethical social lines, don't you think?" "Yes, that is oftentimes her way," nodded Mrs. Varney. "If she followed out set social rules, I think you, Mrs. I should pour. "Oh! I secreted, expelt the honor" declared the lady addressed, while all the time she coveted the distinction more than any other honor Mrs. Reprogle might confer upon her. There were others who had planned for the privilege. It was a day of days for Mrs. Wharton when the occasion arrived. All the old tenderness of her friend Mrs. Reprogle seemed to develop and enlarge as she greeted her, Mrs. Wharton was somewhat older than the majority of the guests who were mainly young married women. The contrast to their stylist attire in her plain black dress that had seen service, did not detract from the matronly graciousness of her nature which captivated all right thinkers in the little assembly. "You will please please, Mrs. Wharton," spoke Mrs. Reprogle, and varied emotions were aroused by the announcement, Mrs. Holmes caught her breath hard, Mrs. Varney looked angry and sullied, others experienced the pangs of severe disappointment and envy. It was not policy to reveal or retain these sentiments, however, and even those who were filled with spite suppressed any exhibition of the same. Like a courtly true gentlewoman of the past Mrs. Wharton spread kindly words and smiles, and with an freestable grace and generous hospitality did her part well. "Oh, well, it would have been more humiliating if our hostess had chosen Mrs. Daly" observed Mrs. Holmes. "Or that forward Mrs. Doty" added Mrs. Varney. "It is simply an old lady humored and petted." It had been the most gracious compliment Mrs. Reprogle could have paid to an old and dear friend and Mrs. Wharton was deeply affected inwardly. It strengthened and sustained her social position and she was content and happy. Mrs. Holmes and Mrs. Varney seated near an open window, at the same time chanced to glance out into the garden. Both started and then exchanged meaning looks. "My dear, that settles it!" said the former, staring hard. "Oh, quite!" purred Mrs. Varney. "The Whartons have certainly captured the family affections." For there, sheltered by a great blooming rose bush, was Harold Regreagle, and Isola Wharton was with him, and he was kissing her, and the two ladies knew that an engagement would soon be announced.

The business men of Kinston came together May 24th, 1921 and formed a business men's league, and named it The Merchants Association and Community Welfare League, since the formation of this league, the business men have been working harmoniously together and many great things have been derived from it. The merchants doctors, real estate dealers, hotel propriets and druggists say that this organization should have been formed in Kinston many years ago. Kinston is the most striving city in Eastern Carolina, especially among the colored business men, and this organization makes Kinston stand out pre-eminent. The purpose of this league is to better business of the city, and to better business men to better serve their patrons through these strenuous times, and more especially to protect the financial crisis. We as business men have put on a special sale for Fridays and Saturdays of each week, headed as follows: The Kinston Colored Merchants Association will give ($25) twenty-five dollars worth of any mer chandise in stock free with all cash purchases of (72.00) two dollars or more. The generous public seems to take advantage of these opportunities since she has been on every much-easier sale and has made fifty per cent with this capital idea in view, we feel satisfied that within two months time we will be able to offer to the public a better proposition. For the benefit of the readers, we must say that we are trying to get recognition form the National Business Men's League, which will meet in Atlanta, Ga., during the month of August.—The Merchants Association and Community Welfare League, R.W. Kornegay, President, and D.J. Secretary, for the Russell, D. J.) as assistant for the Synods of Atlantic and Catawba has just closed a week's meeting at White Rock Presbyterian church.

His sermons were always good and well taken. He tried and did impress his audience that righteous living and honest and friendly dealings between man and man was the only passport between man and God. He pressured Principle of the religion enunciated by Christ Himself, "You will reap what you sow," and be rewarded by what you do. Rev. Russell says he is coming again soon. The church is praying for his good health and long life. He made a great and profound impression. WARRENTON, N. C. BEAUTIFUL HOME WEDDING Warrenton, N.

Poe, of New York, a well known insurance and real estate owner of that city. The parlors of the Hendrick home were butifully decorated with forms and wood flowers. The ceremony took place by the Rev.

Jasmine role every morning, down the stairway way. The park surrounding her big slabby home was glimpy in its wealth of trees. The house was gloomy, too; so in her hour of recreation, Jasmine chose the sunlit way. Jasmine, seated on her white horse, loved to dream at the water's edge, of that other world so far away and yet near, where other young people laughed and talked, and sang together. Since her mother's death, when she had been too young to remember, the girl had known little companionship save that of Urusha, the housekeeper, and James Rhodus, her father, James Rhodes, aged prematurely by disappointment and sorrow, was a severe man. The one friend who continued to bear with his humours was John Westwood of Westwood place, next door. And as James Rhodes, in his broken-hearted isolation—for he had never ceased to mourn his wife's loss—grew poorer, John Westwood, energetic and successful in business, grew ever richer. Now, the one stubborn desire of the old thwarted man was to make that wealth his daughter's, through her marriage to his friend. John Westwood admired Jasminte very much; he loved her, he said, and would make her happy. So Jasminte griefully distressed, trying down the smut way, trying to think out an escape from the impending fate. The girl in absorbing tenderness for her father, could not bear to deny his heart's one desire, and yet— A stranger sat at the end of the sunlit road one day, a young and blue stranger, with arms clapped behind his head against the tree on which he leaned, and brown hair blown by the breeze from his high, white forehead. As the young man's frank blue eyes came back from their survey of the river, they rived upon Jasmin—seated there on her horse, in a kind of joyous wonder. "You? asked the young man, dreamily, "who are you?" And also so softly wondering, the girl replied: "I am Jasmin." The stronger padded. "Of course," he said, "I might know that y'all could be Jasmina when you came. A white flower." Strongly acquiescent, she allowed him to take the bible from her hand and lend her to a seat on the grass at his side. "You come from the old house, Jasmine?" the young man asked. "You see, I know that there are but two houses, and John Westwood lives in the other." "Yes," she answered slowly, "from the old house." "And you are?" he hesitated over his question. Then Jasmina smiled. "I am," she told her questioner, "occupied there as assistance." She was away before the stranger could detain her, lying on Bonnie's back, up the smitcht read. In the somber shores of the park trees, the girl gatned, and her eyes grew wistful. Had it not all been a dream? Yet she went again, and still again, and every coming found him walking. Then firmly dasheme told herself that the meetings must end. It was the white horse who carried her there. "I did not mean to come," she told the young man, decidedly. "Bonnie brought me." "And your heart told Bonnie," he answered quietly, in confident assurance. "But now that I have come," the girl went on, "I shall stay only to confess my deed, and then goodbye. I am Jasmine Rhodes, and I am to marry Jasmin Westwood." "Your underwear, she fainted, com- frayed. This lower intestine mobbled. "I came down to visit my mum," he said. "He is putting me through college. Through all his custiness, my uncle has an affection for me. But if you think that I shall let you marry him—" Young John Westwood broke off abruptly. "There is only one way to straighten it all," he said, "and we must hurry. My roadster will carry us quicker than Bonnie. It's on the river road. First, we will have to get a license. Then you shall come back here as my wife. Wealth can mean nothing to you as compared with love. Come, dear heart." But Jasmine lingered. "Some day," she said. "I will go with you. But first, I must be honest with both my father and his friend." From behind the shelter of a tree came suddenly old John Westwood. "I would advise you, my dear," he said quietly. "to obey how the dictate of your heart. This lad is a good lad, and true love is more than money. I, myself, shall see your father, and after all, I am sure he will be well pleased with my nephew us son-in-law, when he learns that I shall make him my heir. "Oh," murmured Jasminne, "how can you be so generously kind!" Old John Westwood smiled. "Until this morning," he said, "it has been many long years since I glimpsed the Sunlit Way."

New York.—"There is no spot on the globe today where there is more desperate and hopeless suffering than in Armenia." Edwin M. Bulkley, the well known New York banker, who has just been elected chairman of the board of trustees of Near East Relief declared today. Mr. Bulkley succeeds the late Alexander J. Hemphill as head of the American relief work in Armenia, Turkey, Palestine, Syrin, Mesopotamia and Persh. He has long been connected with the banking house of Spencer Trask & Co., and is thoroughly compatible with the Near East偿债局. "Elsewhere," Mr. Bulkley continued, "there is famine that tears at our heart-strings and evokes our pity and our help. But in Armenia it is not starvation alone that the people face—but starvation comes after six years C. EDWIN M. BULKLEY destruction, wrought by a war that has never ended and that today is not even ended. It is starvation following position, and stalking hand in hand with death from exposure, from violence or from disease. "In the mountains between Kars and Alexandroupol there are 25,000 human beings without clothing, food or shelter in the bitter winter, who are wandering from place to place like people in a nightmare. Unless they are surrendered before the end of another month, they will all be dead. In southern Persia, the remnant of the ancient family of Childhood Christians have been forced to resume forever all hope of ever returning to the home land where they have dwell and hourly fugitives, dependent upon the aid of strangers for life. In China, 1,400 Armenian refugees are placed into the constricted seaside safety from the enemy by which persons in the interior in terror for their lives. They live in day to day on the food which is given to them in the soap kitchens established by the Near East Relief. Seated throughout the Near East, there are some 7,500 Armenians, the remainder of a million of Armenians, who have neither government, country, house, shelter or hope of regeneration, and are which lies in the great coast of America.

Save the Children! "Perhaps we cannot save all the grown people of this oldest Christian nation in the world. But at least we can save the little children who hold the future in their hands. They have wronged no one. They have harmed no one. And they have suffered through the precious years of childhood a calvary of agony and wretchedness. For three years the Near East Relief, an American organization, incorporated by Congress, has built up the nucleus of a new generation in the Near East, with the little children that it has taken from the roadside haren places, and nursed back to health, fed, clothed, housed and educated, the name of the American people who have finished the funds for this great work.

It is a seed of world brotherhood that we have sown. Shall we let it die now?

A Tribute To The Theatrical Profession (The Billboard, July 16, 1921.) A human creature is a finite piece. Some discover their part in the great discovery for them. Man is not created for individual social order, like the drops that man grains of sand that make up the earth.

The stage in its possibilities for consideration it should have, as a new To portray human life, commend entertaining and refreshing the service an aquatic. The theatrical profession is a work low it should seek to bring to it the well as those best adapted in gifts will take its right place in dignified professions.—The Billboard. A Portion of a Someon Delivered by the Rev. W. S. Leston of the Bier of the Late "Bobby" Kamp Every human creature is a finite plan in the great infinite plan of God. Some discover their part in the great drama and the part of some is discovered for them. Man is not created for individual isolation, but to be a part of a social order, like the drops that make up the mighty ocean and the grants that make up the great land. In such a relation is the possibility of services. The highest and best service is the only stable and worthwhile contribution one can make to the social order while passing over the state of human life. God has provided in the economy of human mechanic table, utility, and gifts for the benefit of mankind. By study and practice he has developed his natural capacities, and classified them into different vocations. The theatrical profession has an important place in our social order. His basic in the life and spirit of the community. If it has errors, if it has made mistakes, it has not done more than other professions; and their errors and mistakes were not beyond correction. In such a situation in interactions, admired by a strong, but the profession held in mind deserves the artists depreciated. This should not be. They should be envisioned with the best influences and be encouraged to walk worthy of the high ideal. This class of professionals is a blessing to a city. It gives the mind the diversion it often so much needs from the tension and cares of a strenuous life. They are messengers of joy and pleasure, of spirit and life to the community, and should be welcomed and given a place in the church for service, and not passed by with an indifference that makes them feel that the church has little or no interest in them. They come to the stage just like others come to their professions—called by divine endowment of gifts, following the profession accorded by divine purpose back of their lives. They are playing their individual part in the great plan of God, and they must play it in a masterly completeness to give perfection to the entire God-plan of the world. The stage has not always given the highest and best ideals, but not because of inherent evils of the profession. For no practice has always been up to the high ideal of its profession. Corruption has gotten into the practice of them all. But some of them have organized a self-correction auxiliary, which has brought the practice nearer topurity and righteousness of the ideal. This is what the theatrical profession needs, and it is the duty of the public to persuade and encourage toward this end. The stage in its possibilities for splendid service is not getting the consideration it should have, as a most wholesome factor and influence. To portray human life, commending the good and condemning the evil, entertaining and refreshing the soul with joy and pleasure, is the second. The theatrical profession is a worthy profession, and those who follow it should seek to bring to it the very best in heart and mind as well as those best adapted in gifts and talents, and the profession will take its rightful place in dignity and prestige among the leading professions.—The Billboard. 19 LaFayette Players Make Big Hit In "A Man of Mystery' A more enjoyable play has not been seen at the Attucks than that presented by the La Fayette Players the last half of last week under the direction of Mr. Wm. (Babe) Townsend, "A Man of Mystery," with Townsend, himself and Harker in the title roles. It is the first time Mr. Plater has been seen here in a leading part, and the manner in which he depicted Laffer "the detective thoroughly criticized the work," as well as did the setting of Mr. Townsend's "Shadow," are criminal, whose black list of crimes had continually buffled the police and started the public because of his keen duplicity as a criminal, a society man and social worker. A little romance trickled through the play in which Mr. Plater as the great cause and Miss Otu Mane Taylor, the police officer, who was his guardian, and whose fortune he hiff brother, the "Shadow" had contrived to steal from his Uncle's vault, but which was prevented through the shrewdness of her sweetheart, the brilliant detective "Laffer," whose sa piece of the "Shadow" led him to the la home where he remained as secretary of the estate while following him to principals.

The play was better than "Dr. Jockel and Mr. Hyde" and its presentation by the LaFayette Players certainly deserves the highest commendation and appreciation of the public. As Mr. Townsend says, "unless race appreciates and supports its own welfare, maintenance is impossible." And there is nothing more necessary now-a-days when oppression of the race is more acute on every hand, than racial cooperation along all lines. The drama is educational as well as entertaining and more often than not inspires to the audience the welfare of the race help to advance the clean wholesome entertainments. The Convict's Daughter "The Convict's Daughter," which was rendered at the Attucks Theatre Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of this week, was presented by an entirely new company of Lafayette Players. The Convict's daughter has proven to be a brilliant most successful dramas ever written. It enjoyed a long run in England, several months of the time in London and has delighted audiences in New York, Chicago and in fact all of the principal cities of this country. Norfolk is especially blessed to have such a drama, filled with pathos and emotion, presented with such a wide reputation, and so clever handled by the Lafayette Players, with an all star cast. The principal character of this play was handled by one of years of experience of the dramatic field among our people, he is one of the pioneers of the dramatic work among our race, he and Madam Elizabeth Williams who is scheduled to be with him in his company are the two who deserve credit for their work and offer to bring dramas among our people up to the standard. They have labored unceasingly for twenty years, straining every nerve to bring our people into dramatic circles, they too have been blessed to see their efforts come to a success.

Mr. Perry actually out did himself in this role as lead. Col. Matthew Lee was played by Mr. Allie Hughes one of the Lafayette recent comers and one who handles all of his parts exceptionally well. His make up was that of a typical old southern banker. James Blackburn, was the nephew of Col. Matthew and was played by Mr. J. Francis Morces one of the cast, who played in the opening glove of the Attucks Theatre last fall in the musical "What Happened in Harlem," also in one of the great successes ever played on the Attacks stage as Buck McNair in Don O' the Mountains and in Wyoming and this spring in "The Girl Who Came Back." Jack Worthington, Blackburn's rival, was played by Mr. Arthur Simmons, one of the old timers, whom he came from time to time in the leading roles in Mama and Miss Ida Anderson. He needs no introduction, because we feel that he is one of us. France, a disputed possession, was played by Miss Viola Carter. Miss Carter deserves an unlimited credit for her wonderful ability as a leading lady, who having recently emerged into the dramatic field. She is of the type of the Ellis, Anderson, Mitchell, Sadie (faithful but free) was played by Miss Dodson. Her work is exceptionally good, she seems to have grasped the correct interpretation of her part, and seemingly adapted for this particular part in the "Convict's Daughter." Mr. Henry Brown gave an excellent example of one of New York's finest, as a police officer, one could not help think that he was a first grade New York detective. Coming next week, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, "Taking it Over" a drama that you on Broadway for nine months and for one year in Chicago.

Game Resplendent With Beautiful and Snappy Plays (By James E. Smith) On Monday, July 18, Manager John Noel of the Star Park Cubs, journeyed with his team to Elizabeth City and there thickly applied the whitewash to the Elizabeth City Giants by the score of 4-0. The game was resplendent with beautiful and snappy plays on both sides. The particular outstanding features being the batting work of Ferrell and Vandigo for the Cubs, Ferrell allowing only four hits off his delivery and walking nobody; brilliant fielding on the part of Smith, If.; Brozier, cf.; Ashe, rf., and a running catch of a difficult fly by Smyth of the Cubs, cutting short a batting rally of the Elizabeth City Giants. Too much cannot be said in praise of the brilliant work of the Cubs' infield, especially that of Moore at second base and Williams at the initial snack. These two men bid fair to soon become the property of some major team. The game was started in a snap and Norfolk played Elizabeth City off their feet in just one hour and fifteen minutes. Big Brozier led in stick work, getting three hits in four times up. Following is the line-up of the teams: *Star Park Cubs*—John Ashe, rf; Clarence Johnson, b. 3; B. Brozier, M; F. Vandigo, c. A; F.
