"ANTI" POLICY OF KU KLUX CONDEMNED
"ANTI" POLICY OF KU KLUX CONDEMNED
Leading Richmond Paper Declares In Strong Editorial That Klan Is Anti-Catholic, Anti-Jew and Anti-Negro.
ASKED TO DEFINE ITS AMERICANISM
(Special to Journal and Guide)
Richmond, Va.—A very significant editorial on the Ku Klux Klan appeared in the Saturday afternoon editions of the News-Leader. That the Klan is Anti-Catholic, Anti-Semitic (Jewish) and Anti-Negro has never been refuted, declared the editorial writer, and as such is a dangerous menace rather than aid to true Americanism. The News-Leader editorial follows:
"In an advertisement in this morning's Times-Dispatch, the 'American Civic Association' announces that a meeting to be held under its auspices at the John Marshall auditorium last evening was "prevented by a revocation at the last minute of the permit to use the ball." Arrangements have been made for another meeting at a later date in the city auditorium which time," the advertisement reads, "you will be advised as to why this permit was revoked."
"In case the advertisement in The Times-Dispatch arouses any curiosity as to 'why this permit was revoked,' The News Leader is very happy to animate future events by stating the reasons for the revocation of the permit, so far as they relate to this newspaper or are known to it.
"Yesterday morning two Catholic citizens waited on The News Leader and stated that a meeting was to be held at the John Marshall auditorium, to hear that they would be glad if The News Leader would have a reporter present in order to advise the public if any effort was made to arouse opposition to any candidate on religious grounds. The citizens asked no more, no less, and neither by them nor by the News Leader, would permit the permit for the meeting mentioned.
"As The News Leader always has fought, and please God, always will fight for absolute freedom of conscience. The News Leader thought it proper to comply with the request to send a representative to the meeting, and to address the address, Rev. J. N. Harker, was reached by telephone, was asked if the meeting would be open to the press and whether it had any bearing on the local campaign. Te replied that he would be glad to bring tickets to The News Leader and he assured the partner of the meeting had no political aspect.
"That seemed to end the matter, but when cards of admission to the meeting were supplied, the News Leader, it was noted that on each of them a peculiarly arrow painted to a piece of paper. For information, P. O. Box 1874. The number seemed familiar. In the files of the paper was a memorandum of a conversation last summer with a man who had represented himself as state manager or state organizer of the Ku Klux Klan. Attacked was his wife, and the same number that appeared on the card of admission to last night's meeting. Another question, and one much larger than the one that had been settled, immediately arose: Was 'The American Civic Association' another name for the Ku Klux Klan, or was it with the Klan? The News Leader did not know yesterday and does not know today, but it reported the facts to the superintendent of schools as they are here related. It appears that Mr. Hill examined his records and found that the association violated the terms of its agreement with the authorities in an auditorium by issuing cards of admission. He thereupon revoked the permit.
"For observing the postoffice box number, for asking whether the 'American Civic Association' and the Ku Klux Klan were one and the same organization, and for putting the facts before the superintendent of the school, it is impossible. It assumes that responsibility most cheerfully. In the public mind, the Ku Klux Klan is associated with anti-Catholic, anti-semitic and anti-Negro leanings. It has never disabused the public mind, if that impression is erroneous. Until the Ku Klux Klan comes out in the open, expels its professors, constructs its officers and members, the public cannot be expected to drop its suspicions. Certainly, until these things are done, The News Leader will not open its columns to the Ku Klux Klan or cease to oppose the use that organization of municipal buildings, constructed with the money paid in taxes by the city. "If the 'American Civic Association' is another name for the Virginia division of the "Ku Klux Klan", and if the association holds to the suspected tenets of the Klan, precisely the same reasoning applies and precisely the same position will be taken this newspaper. If the "American Civic Association" is the Ku Klux Klan, and has no affiliation of any sort with it, why cannot that fact be stated unequivocally?"

END OF THE MCRARY CASE
Accused Carolinian Dictated
Terms of Final Settlement of
Celebrated Scandal
Cincinnati, Ohio, Aug. 4—August 16th, 1920, not quite a year ago, the startling report was published throughout the country that Robert Baxter McRary, LL. D., a wealthy, well educated and highly respected Negro of Lexington, North Carolina, had been apprehended by a self-constituted posse of men and forced to leave his home for his life. A suit was filed against Dr. McRary by a prominent white man, R. K. Varner, in the Superior Court of Davidson County, North Carolina, for $100,000.00 for damages, alleging alienation of the affections of his wife. Each side employed ten prominent men, which indicates the forcible interest in the case. Upon motion of Dr. McRary's attorneys, made on the grounds of diverse citizenship, Dr. McRary having established his citizenship in Ohio, the case was removed to the United States District Courts at Greensboro, North Carolina. The delay the trial was fixed for the May term, 1921, but it was postponed. Subsequently, the prosecutor, through his attorneys, proposed a settlement. The terms submitted by them were not accepted. The defendant dictated certain changes in the proposed settlement, which changes were agreed to by the prosecution at the trial. The suit was settled with all charges and thereby affecting the moral character of Dr. McRary were withdrawn.
On July 25th the members of Second Calvary Baptist Church, of which Rev. C, P. Madison, D, D., pawter, went to Ivor, Va., by rail to enjoy their annual picnic and outing. The picnic was staged on the historic grounds of "Little Gilded" Baptist Church of which Dr. Madison, the pastor, and other Kentish people and their friends had gathered on the picnic grounds they were not by the Hon. I. C. Fulley, mayor of the town of Ivor, who delivered to them the following welcome address:
Mr. Chairman and Friends:---
"As the chairman has just said there comes a proud day in every man's life and so today I am proud that I am the Mayor of our town. I was very much impressed with the large crowd you had induced to come here today for a picnic and congratulate the promoters of this picnic for having gotten together such a splendid congregation of people. It shows the kind of people who are interested and purpose making this day one of great success and pleasure.
"Coming as you do in the name of your churches and Sunday schools to have a picnic affords me a great deal of pleasure to welcome you to our town. This is a day of Christian enlightenment, and when a body of people come together in the name of Christianity they may feel that they are in anywhere and at any place in this grand old Commonwealth. In no other name and under no other circumstances could you be near so welcome as in the name of your church and Sunday school.
"It speaks well for any community when some of its former citizens come back to it in the capacity in which you have come here today. New C. Washington won for themselves the friendship and good will of their own people while they lived here, and also won the respect and confidence of the white people. You are to be honored for having brought your people here today for a picnic to mingle with your old friends, and I trust that this day may be one of grat pleasure to you and to all."
"I look around me and see so much prepared made for your comforts and pleasures today that I am inclined to think that your circulars

GOURDIN, HARVARD'S ATHLETIC STAR TO GET MANY MEDALS
CAMBRIDGE, Mass.-Edward O. Gourdine, Harvard's Nrg athlete who set a new world broad jump record of 25 feet, 3 inches last Saturday, has closed his college athletic career and field and track record of that any man who ever wore the crimson. His ability in events which he first tried as a freshman is shown in a list of the marks he has made in actual competition. They follow: O. Gourdine-yard day, 3-4 5-seconds; 220-yard day, 22-4 5-seconds; 440-yard run, 52 1-5 seconds; bigh jump, 25 feet, 3 inches; bigh jump, 5 feet, 9 inches; running hop, step and jump, 45 feet, 3 inches; javelin throw, 140 feet; discus throw, 110 feet. Gourdine will be as much decorated an hero of many as those to pin on his breast all the medals he has won in four years. The Harvard athletic authorities have been unable to get medals struck off as often as he has earned them. Five gold medals of special die are due marking in the broadest jump known to man last Saturday.

"This ground has long been famous for being a most desirable and pleasant place for a picnic. Having been chosen several years ago by the white artist as a splendid place for holding their picnic places, I splendid shade trees, its hills and last least that excellent spring of water just down the hill, Gillfield spring is as dear to me as it is to most of you, for it is here that I have spent many a pleasant day with my Sunday picnic as a scholar and on one occasion I visited the Ivory Baptist Sunday school. We always had a good time when we came here to have our picnic.
"You could not have selected a more desirable place for holding your picnic, and I am sure you could not be in a community where you will meet with more affection than you will here. I want to tell you that some of the best colored people in the world live in this community. You will find them courteous and obliquic. Most of you people have known me for years and I will take pleasure in saying that if you done just call upon some of our colored people and they will do it. They will not do it with a air of indifference either, but you will be convinced that it is as much pleasure for them to accommodate as it is to be accommodated."
"They are all good Samaritans and real friends and will prove their hospitality to you today."
"I one heard of one of our learned men say in explaining "who is our neighbor" that it was those who lived about us regardless of race or color, and am sure he was right, for in your race we found true neighbors and friends.
"You have some go.d speakers here today and I am sure when you go away this evening your verdict will be that this has been one of the most pleasant days you ever spent and will hope to come back next year. I

A BAD RECORD
(Special to Journal and Guide)
Chicago, Ill. Aug.—A. B. Legg, a colored Pullman porter, single handed ('Tommy') captured Thomas ('Tommy') O'Connor, gun man and slayer, when the latter tempted to hold up a Chicago Great Western passenger train on the outskirts of St. Paul. O'Connor, who has been the object of nation's search for months, is wounded in Chicago on four murder charges. One Child is killed, and five others discharged from service for cowardice, in pursuit of him.

TOO FRIENDLY TO NEGROES; ORDERED TO LEAVE BY KU KLUX
(Special to Journal and Guide)
Savannah, Ga.—Alleged sympathy for Negroes was given by the Ku Klux Klan as their reason for ordering Walter A. Chaffee, a well-known contractor, and his sister, Mrs. M. M. Dodge, to leave the city. Chaffee left immediately from fear of losing his life, but Mrs. Dodge, who did not leave at once was waited upon today by a number of citizens, some of whom are known to belong to the Ku Klux Klan, and informed that the threat was probably the work of an individual and not the Klan, and that she could remain in the city. The warning received by Chaffee was signed by the Ku Klux Klan.
Colored Skipper's Vessel
Rescued By Britisher
Leaking badly, with most of her canvas carried away in a storm she met when two days out of Perth Amboy, the small two-masted American schooner Emma W. Day was taken into Hampton Roads by the British Navy on Monday, which picked her up last Saturday about 350 miles of Cape Henry. The Emma W. Day is owned and commanded by a Negro, Captain Jas. C. Kydl. With a crew of five, one of them a boy, she left Perth Amboy on July 20 for St. Vincent, her carriage consisting of a few cases of housekeeping, two planes and a photograph, bound to Hampton Roads, landed on Hampton Roads five London, for bankers, she was a helpless condition. Captain Kydl said that he had sighted other vessels than the Faraday, but they were too far away to read his distress signals. The most singular feature of the vessel was the ages of the two vessels, which total nearly 100 years. The Emma W. Day was commissioned but three years later—Norfolk Virginia-Pilot.

FORD MAY RUN FOR PRESIDENT
FORD MAY RUN FOR PRESIDENT
Fliver Manufacturer A Powerful Factor in Independent Political Circles. Does Own Thinking.
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Washington, D. C. "1924 will see Henry Ford a potential presidential candidate, enjoying the united support of farmers and a strong labor sympathy." This is a prediction current in Washington.
The fact that Ford personally is politically independent and always has espoused ideas rather than party platforms, tends to strengthen him with the farmers and industrial workers. Ford is seen in the following roles:
Against big bankers Ford recently won a spectacular victory in securing a warning that he must accept Wall Street's help and going ahead to prove that such help was not necessary.
Espousing the cause of peace and prosperity promised as a result of international armament limitation. Ford has announced his purpose to publicize on these bankers and others who might seek to block the success of the armament coach.
Ford proposes taking over the great Music Shrine nitrate plant in order to supply cheap fertilizer to the agricultural sectors.
Henry purchased one small railroad and lowered freight rates for the benefit of Michigan fruit producers; he endorses getting additional railroad property.

LIBERIA GETS FIVE MILLION DOLLAR LOAN
Act Effective As Seventy-Fifth Anniversary of Little African Republic Is Celebrated In Washington
END OF LONG NEGOTIATIONS
Washington.—Legislation authorizing payments to Liberia, under the $5,000,000 loan to that country, previously arranged for, was asked by President Harding today in a letter transmitted to the Senate.
An accompanying letter from Secretary Hughes to the President said a "moral obligation" rested on the United States to make this loan.
By Associated Press Press
Washington, D.C. The Secretary-elect of the U.S. House of the Republic of Liberia was celebrated in Washington Tuesday evening, July 20th by President Charles Number Burgess King and the members of the Liberian Presidential Commission at the Legislation Headquarters, 1371 R Street, N.W.
The rooms of the Legislation Headquarters, the dining rooms, were decorated with a Liberian which ran the whole length of the building, together with the President's official flag and numberless flags of the United States of America.
President King and the members of the Commission invited to celebrate with them a number of representative colored Americans of Washington and Baltimore, including many who have been their veterans of previous occasions during their stay in America since March of this year.
President King presided and proposed a toast to the health of the President of the United States to which tourt he himself responded. Mrs. Jarryl Church Pierce proposed a toast to the Republic of Liberia. Toasts were proposed and responded to also by Justice F. E. R. Johnson of the Liberian Supreme Court; Hon. Gabriel L. Johnson, Mayor of Monroe, Liberia; Dr. Ernest Lyon, Liberian Consul-General with residence at Bali and with diplomatic assignments in Istanbul, Secretary-Troucher of Howard University, who responded to the toast "Our Brothers Across the Sea." The following letter from President Harding was read at the dinner: "My dear Mr. President: It affords me signal pleasure to extend condolences on this, the anniversary of the declaration of Liberian Independence.
There has never hacked in this country a deep interest in the peace, independence and prosperity of the Republic of Liberia and I am only true to sentiments a century old in offering, Mr. President, to you and your countrymen, the best of wishes for the future of Liberia. I am particularly glad to be able to extend these celebrations at a moment when you are a welcomed visitor in the United States.
"Toms generosity,
[Congress Warren G. Harding.]
[President Kate Pierce.]
[President Kate Pierce.]
which follows was read and also letters and documents from the Liberian Consul-General in Paris, France, and the Liberian Colony of the City of New York.
"My dear Mr. President:
'I just want to thank you most sincerely for your cordial felicitations extended on this the seventy-fifth anniversary of Liberia's independence.
'I can assure Your Excellency that such sentiments enunciating from the Chief Executive of the Great Republic is proud of offspring—and coming just at this momentous period in our national life, will serve as an inspiration to the Governmnt and the People of Liberia who have been endeavoring single handedly for the past three quarters of a century to maintain on the continent of Africa, a nation established upon those principles of democracy for which your great nation has always stood as the chief exponent and protector.
With sentiments of high esteem and regard, believe me, my dear Mr. President.
Very sincerely yours,

Wonderful Growth of the Virginia Drug Corp.
THE MIDDLE EAST MARKET
UNDER THE MANAGEMENT OF DR. C. W. DUNSTON
The Virginin Drug Corps, has just closed its second year of business in the best appointed drug store in the South, filling 30,000 prescriptions, not counting those repeated.
The force is composed of twelve persons, three druggists, four clerks, two delivery boys and three waitresses, who are expert along their lines. At the fountain you may find all up to date drinks dispensed.
The plant is worth about $40,000.00, the stock is large, and that coupled with service makes it an ideal store.
The wonderful growth has been due to the co-operation given by the generous public.
ject was "The Challenge of Your Faith in God."—1st Kings 18:21. The sermon seemed to take hold of the people and their attention was rapt throughout the discourse. The spiritual fervor was high and much rejoicing among the people as their faith in God was heightened as the minister told of the power of God to care for and save those whose trust in Him is unfaltering. Three persons joined the church. This makes 52 persons to unite with us since the close of the annual conference.

N. C. Pythians Annual Meeting
Wilmington, N. C.-The Grand Lodge of Pythians was in session at St. Stephens A. M. E. Chureb in the city of Wilmington, N. C. Dr. J. W. Jones the Grand Chancellor presided.
The Grand officers all answered the roll call. The men of the Grand Lodge who were most active in its delications were, Dr. J. B. Dudley, W. G. Pearson, Frank Avant, J. A. Bonner, F. C. Hester, Edward Miller, W. B. Windson, George Lane, J. M. Avery, Dr. A. M. Moore, F. C. Hargrave J. D. Reid.
Dr. J. W. Jones delivered a very forceful and illuminating address. The changing conditions make it necessary that an organization of representative citizens should give assurances of peace and good will sincerely worked for in these critical times. Such men are needed as Judge Bond of the Superior Court bench and Mr. J. C. Besson of Winston-Salem who used the power of his office to secure a fair trial for a Negro convicted to go on the roads.
The receipts for this year of Pythianism have shown decided increase, Death Chaim paid ($66,204.11) sixty six thousand two hundred and four dollars and eleven cents.
The absence of the late Col. James H. Young was noticeable. It is certain to be a number of years before the men of the state will be accustomed to meet without this once master of men who passed from earth as spring opened. F. W. M. Butler was placed on the finance to succeed him, a worthy and honorable man succeeds him.
Some opposition developed but was oiled out of existence.
The deserving Chancellor and Cabinet was unanimously re-elected.
The citizens in their attendance and care for the delegation showed themselves hospitable. The Mayor of the city of Wilmington delivered one of the most felicitous speeches of welcome that has been heard for years and Dr. C. S. Brown, the titled Negro leader of North Carolina happily responds, Raleigh the unpretentious city, will entertain the 1922 Pythian Grand Lodge. The pleasantest session known in its history closed in Wilmington. The Court of Calanthe did not have smooth sailing. The cause is due to postiferous men. The real men in our fraternal organizations are getting restless under present conditions among our women societies.

The Mt. Zion A. M. E. Sunday School Union met at Macdonald A. M. E. Church Sunday July 31, 1921, with the president Mr. W. D. King, presiding. There were representatives from each school except one. Each delegate acted his or her part well and seemed to be filled with the spirit of the Union. There were a large number of visitors and friends present from the different schools. The collection for the day was good. On Wednesday night July 27, we were delighted to have Rev. L. T. Watson of Smithfield with us. He delivered a powerful sermon from Matthew 11 chapter 4-5 verses. A fine musical program was also rendered in connection with this service. It was for the benefit of one of the clubs of the church, under the leadership of Mrs. Pauline Goodwin. * Death visited the home of Mr. Brittian Chapman, Thursday night July 28, and took his sister, Miss Sarah B.

BUGABOO FAILS TO WIN
The colored people of the State can derive some real satisfaction from the Democratic primary held last Tuesday. The candidate that raised the race issue as one of his campaign shibboleths went down to defeat. This is particularly gratifying to the colored citizens, in as much as it seems to indicate that the majority of the Democratic voters in this State have arrived at the point where they can view with indifference and as an insult to their intelligence the claims of any candidate for office that there is imminent danger of Negro domination, mixed schools, and intermarriage of the races in Virginia. While we do not hold that this thing alone defaced Mr. Tucker, it is significant that it did not bring victory to him, as it has brought victory to practically every other candidate that ever used it. It is also significant that Mr. Trinkle, who conducted his campaign along clean, high-toned lines, aburring the race issue, was carried to victory by an almost overwhelming majority.
The people of Tidewater Virginia, without regard to party, race or creed, will approve the nomination of Col J. E, West, of Stuffolk, for the office of Lieutenant-Governor.
ORGANIZING TO FIGHT THE KU
KLUX KLAN
There have been recently some twenty cases of outrages in Texas in which white persons have been tarred and feathered and otherwise mistreated. In one case a white doctor of great prominence, in another a white lawyer, and in another a white woman, have been so treated. The thing has carried terror to the consciences of the whites who have been outraged, and those who do not belong to the Klan but may expect like treatment. They are beginning to know the infamy of such outrages.
A member of the legislature, at Austin, has denounced William J. Simmons, the Imperial Wizard, and any member of the Klan, and the legislature of Texas as being parties to Klan outrages, unless the latter does something to stamp out the lawlessness.
White citizens of Beaumont, where several outrages have occurred, have organized to fight the Klan, and have called upon the white citizens of southwest Texas to organize themselves for the like purpose. It is significant that the Ku Klux Klan have carried their outrages to the "home" of the white people as well as to black, and in this alone lies the most certain assurance of their undoing, as making the white people of the South feel the infamy of mob rule will arouse them in their might to put it down. When they began to regulate the morals of white people and to warn certain ones to leave town between suns they began the first chapter in their own undoing and destruction.
That it is clear to a great many thoughtful white people of the South that no organization except the duly constituted government is needed to preserve order or to maintain "white supremacy" is evidenced by editorials which have appeared in leading papers disapproving the Klan. Among the strongest of such articles that have appeared is the following from the Elizabeth City, (N. C.) Independent:
"The Ku Klux Klan is organizing in Elizabeth City. To what extent the organization has progressed only the organizers know. So secret is this organization that the members are not even supposed to know each other and those who are members never proclaim the fact. Why we should have such an organization here is a question which should puzzle the thoughtful man. I have read a considerable bundle of Ku Klux Klan literature and I have yet to discover anything in it worth my ten dollars or my support.
"I am convinced that the real aims and purposes of the organization are concealed in a lot of plausible generalities. They stand for pure Americanism, white supremacy, belief in God, protection of womanhood, the Constitution of the United States, and a lot of other things that most of us discovered in childhood. I do not have to pay ten dollars and swear allegiance to an Imperial Wizard to take my stand on these things. I do not have to wear a mask to proclaim the fact of white supremacy, or hide myself in a sheet and skull behind a gallberry bush to protect womanhood.
"It is hinted that a terrorist secret organization dressed up like ghosts and rattling dead men's bones is needed to protect us against the menace of colored folks, Jews, Catholics and foreigners. The Ku Klux Klan is plainly anti-Jew, anti-Catholic and anti-Negro. Why?
"There are only ten million Negroes in the United States and as a rule they are the most law-
abiding and God-fearing element of our population. With one hundred million white people outnumbering this Negro population ten to one, I am not fearing these Negroes and I am not going to be one to terrify them and drive them to arming themselves, by riding the county roads at midnight disguised like a ghost with a fool's cap on my head. I am the only 15 million Roman Catholic in the United States, including Catholic labs in the cradle and I refuse to believe that I can not protect myself against them except through a secret order that hasn't the face to acknowledge its membership.
"As for the Jews, there are only 12 millions of them in the whole world; only two millions in the United States and half of them in New York State. If these Jews are so powerful and so cunning that they can deprive me of all my cash and all my liberty, then truly they are God's chosen people spite of Henry Ford and the Ku Klux Klan and I am not going to fight them. If this inconsiderable little Jewish minority can rule the world then nor can masks, put fool's cap on our heads and take to the bushes.
"The new Ku Klux Klan has been organized in the South since 1915. Trying to discover what the South has gained in that time I have found only an increase in lawlessness and mob rule."
Long ago we said in the JOURNAL AND GUIDE that the end of mob lawlessness would be in sight when the lawbreakers began to do things to white persons they were doing to colored ones, and now, here we are, up against that condition. Amen.
JACK JOHNSON AND MARCUS
GARVEY RETURN TO HARLEM
Harlem, the great center of Afro-American population in New York City, received into its bosom last week two distinguished men of the race, and expended a very great deal of enthusiasm in doing so. The two men are idols of a certain sort, and as far apart in what they have done to make them famous, as the East is from the West.
Jack Johnson reached Harlem fresh from a Federal prison and Marcus Garvey came fresh from sailing the salted seas, having been detained abroad by the efforts of his enemies to keep him out of the country on the ground that he is "an undesirable citizen." Mr. Johnson has a very bad reputation as a tough and crook, the exponent and propagator of all sorts of immoralities, and is no credit to himself or the Afro-American people, who discredit themselves when they honor and encourage him. His days as a pugilist are passed, as his forty years are a landcape he cannot overcome. By his rockcliff course after he got the championship from Jim Jeffries at Reno he did more to degrade pugilism and hurt the aspirations of Afro-American sports than any living man. His morals are simply rotten!
We shall be unable to appraise Mr. Marcus Garvey until he has had time to demonstrate the success or failure of his schemes to do for the African people in commerce and politics what no other man in modern times has done. He has worshipers and enemies a-plenty. The JOURNAL. AND GRIDE is neither the one nor the other. We do not like his methods and the buffoonery that goes along with his propaganda, but if he can succeed and benefit himself and the race we shall be glad of it. The demonstration is with him; not with us.
JAPAN WILL TAKE PART IN THE
CONFERENCE
The Japanese Government has notified our Government that it will take part in the Disarmament Conference and the consideration of Far Eastern Questions, but in doing so it has carried its point that the agenda shall not intrench upon questions already settled as to themselves, nor upon questions "such as are of sole concern to certain particular Powers or such matters as may be regarded as accomplished facts."
The efforts of the American newspapers to stampade Japan into coming into the Conference without knowing in advance what subjects were to be discussed failed lamentably. The Japanese are disposed at no time to be rushed and stampeded. It is not phlegmatic but deliberate in its diplomacy as it is in its conduct of war. It displayed these characteristics in a marked way before, during and after the Russo-Japanese war, but American newspaper jingoes still think they can rush and stampede the Japanese in diplomacy and war. They can do neither, and they had better take the lesson to heart before it is too late to do so.
We should learn from the Japanese the useful lesson of knowing what our rights are, never being in a hurry in contending for them, and never being willing to surrender what is right, even when overpowered. And they do not wait for other Nations to do for them what they can and should do for themselves; they go ahead and do it themselves. Their rise as a World Power has been due entirely to stubborn adherence to these principles of conduct. It is highly probable also that Japan will make another demand for racial equality during the sessions of the Conference.

Letters From The People
"HASTE MAKES WASTE" IN POLITICS AS WELL AS IN OTHER ESSENTIAL THINGS
Editor JOURNAL & GUIDE.
Sir:—For many years I have considered you one of the foremost thinkers of our race; since reading your editorial of July 30, 1921, under the caption, "Where Able Leadership Is Needed," my opinion of you as a same thinker has been strengthened.
Our political leaders have been and are now insulted and many of our political hopes have been blasted, so it is easy to see why they feel like resorting to any honorable means of revenge; but you are right when you say that you believe that a State-wide referendum would disclose in the minds of the majority a serious doubt as to the efficacy of this method in the proper solution of our problems.
This is truly a time for some thinking among our leaders, for their action in a time like this may seal our destiny for many years to come. Our future is safe if they act wisely, and generations will be born to call them blessed; but if our leaders act unwisely, our children's children for many years will bear the burden.
The action of some of our leaders reminds me of a time in my life when a man provoked me to a point where I was so angry that I rushed for a gun, fully determined to shoot him, I would have done so but my anger cooled off and I was capable of thinking sanely. I began hearing a voice repeating over and over again, "You came near acting too quickly." Even in my dreams I could hear the voice of warning and caution. I believe that our political leaders will also hear that voice, if they will wait a while and allow their righteous anger and indignation to cool. Something should certainly be done, but there is serious doubt just now as to just what is the proper course to pursue. Hoping that our leaders will ask God to guide them in this political crisis and that they will do the things that will lay a solid foundation upon which our race can build in the days to come, I am Very sincerely yours.
R. J. SALISBURY.

therefore take pleasure in extending to you a cordial invitation to come again and assure you that we will heartily welcome you."
The mayor's address was warmly responded to by Dr. Madison and he was given an ovation by the big crowd for his cordial welcome. In praise of the manner in which the Norfolkians deported themselves while in Ivor, the following letter was received by Dr. Madison from the mayor:
Ivor, Va., July 26th, 1921.
Rev. C. P. Madison,
Norfolk, Va.
In behalf of our townmen I wish to express to you and your congregation our profound approval and sincere appreciation of the conduct of your people in our town and on the picnic grounds yesterday. The quiet and orderly manner in which your entire people conducted themselves is worthy of our commendation and we wish to heartily commend you in maintaining such good deportment. Not a single instance has been reported to me of misconduct by any one.
We therefore wish to extend to you an invitation to repeat your visit under similar circumstances at your pleasure.
Respectfully yours,
H. C. PULLEY, Mayor.
BY EDWARD A. BAKER, ASST. TREAS,

As you prosper, you ought to make
provisions for a time when you may
not be prosperous as you are today.
Neither your good luck nor your earning
capacity can last indefinitely.
It is very a satisfactory thing to
have something to fall back upon in
case debts begin to heap up beyond
the point where the income can take
care of them. If you have a mortgage to pay or any other debt adopt
the plan of making regular deposits
in a Savings account to take care of
the Payments, and the interest on
the mortgage will be partly paid by
the interest that you will receive from
your deposits.
The days to come must be provided for. The whole idea of Thrift and Savings revolves around that great necessit. The person who does not realize it has no adequate conception of what life means-
If you are prudent enough to save money and maintain a Savings account now; you will not need to worry when you grow old.
Start on the high road today.

Dr. Beerman Has One Office
The Well Known Eyesight Specialist Has No Representatives Elsewhere.
Some people seem to have an idea that Dr. Beerman has or is about to open another office in Norfolk. This is not the case, there is but one Dr. "BEERMAN" there may be similar names, but the original Dr. Beerman, who has practiced the profession of optometrist under the name of the H. G.

Circular Letter, No.4
Richmond, Va., July 15, 1921.
To the Officers and Members of Schools, Unions, Associations and Conventions, Composing the Va. Baptist State S. S. Convention:—Dear Christian Co-Workers:
As the time for 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. C. H. Pearson, Geo. T. Rouson, I. G. Gladden, and M. L. Michison are full of encouragement and are convincing proof of the wisdom of having attempted mission work for this year on such an extensive scale.
We hope that many new schools and B. 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 again, call your attention to the necessity of electing delegates and forwarding their names at once to Mrs. Virginia Edwards, 320 Dice St., Charlestonville, 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 $0,500.00,
which must be raised in order to place

MEMORIAMS
In loving remembrance of my dear husband, Owen Cox, I will be my last visit to August 4, 1926. Gone but not forgotten. A loving one from us is gone, all the flowers are gone, all the place is vacant in our home. That never can be filled. I told the death prevent, the days would not so soon be spent. But God knew best in his own way, for he knew best. But how we miss you more each day, and often adored a silent woman. We often go to the grave where you are laid. And spread sweet flowers but they wither. But the memories of you will never fade.
But the memories of you will never fade,
It seems like yesterday when you were laid.
Devoted wife and children.
In loving memory of Vincent C. Johnson,
who departed this life July 29, 1920.
Another year has ended, another sun has set,
And still will think about you, for Oh, we
cannot forget.
One year ago you left us, and our eyes are
filled with tears.
To think we can never see you through all
the coming years.
Gone, but not forgotten.—Family.

RALEIGH NEWS
The Shaw summer school teachers had the pleasure of hearing at aelapel hour last week the following named speakers: Monday, Prof. Davis, representing the Rosenwald School Building Fund; Tuesday, Mrs. Holland, representing the State Department of Public Education; Wednesday, Mr. W. L. Hansberry, B. S., doing preadministration at Harvard University. The subject of Mr. Hansberry's lecture was on research work in Africa. Mr. Hansberry, though quite young proved to be an elegant speaker and fascinated his readers. Miss Norene Tate, daughter of Mr. Ed Tate, one of our stuart citizens, received notice that she has been reappointed as one of the teachers in the Newborn public graded schools. Miss Tate is a brilliant young woman and is destined to make her mark in the educational field. *Mr. D. L. Holden is the first and only young colored man in this city to open a shop for the repair of automobiles at 515 E. Martin street. We wish him success. *Mr. P. J. Jones, 2026 East Chapel Hill street, Durham, N. C., was in the city last Saturday on business. *Mrs. A. Myron Cochran and son, Thomas, have returned to the city after a week's sojourn in Greenbush visiting friends. On learning that the Dyer Antilynch Bill is soon to be brought up for debate in the United States Congress, the congregation of St. Ambrose Protestant Episcopal church last Sunday at the 11 o'clock morning service adopted resolutions urging our congressional representatives to vote favorably on the bill when it comes up. The rector appointed the following laymen to prepare and forward the resolutions to Hon. Ed. W. Pou, Fourth District Congressman: Mr. Wily J. Lathorn, chairman; T. I. McCoy and T. W. White. This writer would like to know what progress is being in gathering funds in answer to the appeal for help to the Tulaa, Okla., riot sufferers. I read the appeal in the JOURNAL AND GUIDE and one or two other Negro publications, and since which time I have seen no further notice of it. Can it be possible that Negroes have turned a deaf ear to the appeal of our unfortunate group of distressed Negro brethren? I hope not. Our twelve million Negroes in this country ought to rally to the aid of the Tulaa, Okla., riot sufferers in money, food and clothing. Every church, lodge and association should take pride in sending these people aid as has been asked for, and it should be done speedily. This writer took the lead in St. Ambrose P. E. church in this city in raising $15.00 and forwarded it to the Tulaa, Okla., riot sufferers through the editor of the New York Age. Get busy, Allow Negroes congregation, and see to it that our unfortunate Negroes have been helped back on their feet. We welcome to them. They are flesh of our flesh and bone of our home, so to speak. The trend of events, the changing of policies and conditions, from the Pledge of the United States, Congress, the Supreme Court, State legislatures, judges in lower courts down to sheriff's con-
Vines me that Negroes in any part of this country are liable to wake up and find conditions as they are in Tuba, Okla.
CAPEVILLE, VA.
By Theodore Wright
Mrs. Jennie Smith, of Cheapside, was given a surprise party Wednesday evening. * The Sons & Daughters of the Red Men's organization held their annual convention at the A. M. E. church of Capeville, July 26, 27, and 28. There was speaking each night. * Miss Ada Winder, of Cheron, Va., has been spending the week with Miss Naomi Wright, of Capeville. * July 29th marked the fall of Cheriton's baseball team. It was a great excitement raised when on the seventh inning they fell a victim to the Capeville Blues by a score of 2 to 1. The game did not continue to the ninth inning because the Cheriton team refused to take the decision of the umpire. The game therefore ended with the 7th inning. Cheriton's manager refused to pay the team what had been agreed to between the two teams. They politely put the money around the neck of Mr. Daniel Morris and said, "It is all ours." After they thought it ever and began to realize how childish they had acted, they began to feel embarrassed and forwarded the money to Capeville Blues early Monday morning. * The great Hindenburg line of Eastern Shore was bombarded last Thursday in the presence of hundreds of people, Cape Charles Slides have been known for this season to be the champions of Eastern Shore, but now we can call the Capeville Blues the champions. They have said since the game that two of their men were bought off, but that is not the reason they lost the game. The real reason is, Mr. Grasson Fitchett pitched balls they could not see. The team may say all that can be said about Mr. Fitchett's pitching, but they must recognize Mr. Henry Wright as the heart of the team. Cape Charles Slides, 5: Capeville Blues, 6.

Monday night July 25, the members and friends of St. Luke A. M. E. Zion church witnessed one of the most impressive ceremonies in the history of the church. After years of toil and sacrifice the labors of the few faithful members culminated in mortgage burning. The torch was applied by the trustees of the church. Bro. Burl Carr and Sister Laura Cutchins two of the oldest members of the church, held the mortgage and as the ashes crumbled in their hands and the tiny clouds of smoke rose heavenward the burden of the church also was lifted. Hon. E. Frank Story, Mr. W. T. Pace and Mr. Byrd our tried and trusted friends were present and addressed the gathering, offering advice, congratulations and financial aid. Rev. D. L. Pierce, the pastor can justly be proud of bringing this bit of history to pass. The services were concluded by a collection which terminated the spring rally and in which was realized $661,80.

ST. JOHN'S A. M. E. CHURCH
The services Sunday proved to be inspiring and helpful. The pastor filled the pulpit morning and evening. "Christian Progress Among the Indians," was the subject of a live and interesting discussion by the Intermediate and Senior Leagues, and a good bit of information was given. Next Sunday will be Conservation meeting, and every member is expected to fill his place. The Senior meeting will be led by the pastor. The annual picnic of the Ever Ready Circle on last Tuesday to Little Bay Beach was rather an enjoyable affair. The St. John's Cadets will assemble at the church at 5 a., m., on Monday, the 8th, prepared to spend a day of camp life and instruction as well as pleasure at the seashore.
On next Sunday, Holy Communion will be celebrated at 11 a.m., and at 8 p.m., the pastor will deliver a sermon and receive candidates into full membership.
At the district conference at Eastville, August 9th and 10th, the church will be represented by the pastor, Dr. M. E. Davis, and steward Charles S. Ferebee.

UNITED METHODIST USHERS
UNION NOTES
The regular meeting of the United Methodist Ushers Union was held on Sunday, July 24, at 3:30 p. m., at St. Johns A. M. E. church, Bute street. The meeting was very largely attended, and showed much interest among the ushers in their noble work that they are trying to do. The annual officers for this district known as Norfolk District No. 1 were elected. The officers were as follows: Mr. R. L. Gretter, Portsmouth, president; Mr. Emanuel McCoy, 1st vice-president; Miss Mary E. Collins, 2nd vice-president; Mrs. C. V. Hoggard, financial secretary; Mrs. Flora V. Reid, assistant financial secretary; Mrs. Annie Cartwright, Berkley, recording secretary; Mrs. Mary E. McCoy, assistant recording secretary; Mr. Fred, Johnson, treasurer; Mr. J. L. Williams, Portsmouth, chaplain; Mr. Goo, H. R. Sergent, sergent at arms. The State officers still remained that were elected last year, who are still busy throughout the State organizing unions in all of the districts. Richmond has been and is known as Richmond District No. 2. A large meeting was held there at Biblical church under the auspices of the usher board of that church, and was addressed by the State president, Mr. W. Dennis Perkins, and the State secretary, Mr. Theodore A. Lev, both of Norfolk. The meeting was largely attended. Where there is union there is strength, and we are trying to form usher boards in all of the Methodist churches in order to have them in the Union. We hope for much success in our great work in the Church. The officers were installed by the pastor, Rev. M. E. Davis, D. D.
SUNDAY SCHOOL
UNION CONVENES
The Norfolk, Norfolk County and Tanners Creek Sunday School Quarterly Union held a very profitable session with the First Baptist Sunday school, Lambert's Point, Sunday, July 1st. Rev. Liburn Hardie, formerly of Norfolk, but now of Elisabeth N. J., preached to the Union a most wonderful sermon. All present voted it a rich and rare treat, from an intellectual and spiritual viewpoint. One great aim of the Union is to bring to the Union the best of speakers and Sunday school workers, thus promoting the general growth of the Union.
The literary and musical numbers were rendered with credit to each performer.
The president, Mr. Redmond Vines, urged a membership campaign by the various schools. The "financial drives" unfortunately outnumber the "drives for membership."
All went home with a newer zeen and a greater inspiration to make his Sunday school the best yet.
OCEANA CIRCUIT
The circuit was alive last Sunday, for splendid services were held at both churches. Dr. Metz, ex-pastor of Mt. Olive Baptist church, Seatack, occupied the pulpit at St. Mark's at the morning hour and preached at St. John at 8 o'clock. The pastor took part with the singing, introducing several new hymns. The Sunday schools are doing well at both points. The pastor, Dr. West and Bro. W. E. Williams, of London Bridge, left Tuesday morning to attend the district conference and Sunday school institute of the Richmond district at Newcome, Va. * Mrs. Geneva Bright, of Virginia Beach, a teacher of the St. Mark Sunday school, and member of the choir, had the painful misfortune of sticking a nail in her foot. She is much-better. * Mrs. Williams, of New Jersey, is visiting her sister, Mrs. S. F. Edncy, of Oceana. * The pastor and Mrs. West were entertained at din-
ner last Friday by Mr. and Mrs.
David Williams, of Lynhaven.

SACRED CONCERT AT ST. JAMES
BRILLIANT AFFAIR. NEW
FEATURES DELIGHT MAM.
MOTH CROWD.
The fifth Sunday night concert at the St. James A. M. E. church last Sunday night was another wonderful achievement in the line of musical and literary productions, and it was witnessed by an enthusiastic and appreciative crowd that filled the church inside and surrounded it outside. The affair was under the auspices of the St. James choir and was arranged by the popular and accomplished choir master, Mr. F. G. Russell, assisted by the efficient organist and music teacher, Miss Vashti Palmer, and some of the finest musical and literary talent in Tidewater was presented. The services began with an imposing "Processional" by the choir, and the opening services were led by the pastor, Dr. P. A. Scott. Mr. R. C. Davis acted as master of ceremonies, and made several glowing comments upon the brilliant display of talent exhibited.
Among the many features deserving of special mention was the rendering of Wendell Phillips' oration, "Toussaint L'Overture," by Mrs. Madge Sharp-Stit.
Miss Mayme Copeland sang Tosti's "Good-Lay," with great effect, and equally pleasing were the solos by Miss Elise Mae Bulleck, of Portsmouth, and Mr. Samuel Smith, of Berkley. The violin duet by Messrs. R. T. Boiling and J. Everette Goodwyn and the cornet solo by Mr. Langston Carl, were among the finest renditions of the evening. The Misses Maggie Randall, Mary McCoy and Mayme Copeland delighted the audience with their trio selection, "Busy Bees," as did the Women's Chorus in their renditions of "Minniecotka" and "Littles."
Prof. Hiram Simmons' two popular anthems, "O That I Had Wings," and "Hosanna To The Living God," were among the special numbers sung with fine technique and thrilling effect, by the St. James full chair. Two beautiful selections were sung by the popular male quartette, of which the blind singer, A. Moore, is leader.
The closing number was a beautiful pantomime by six young ladies, dressed in patriotic colors, while Miss Copeland sung "The Star Spangled Banner," and the pastor threw different colors of light upon the scene with the stereoicon.
This was a new feature and greatly delighted the mammoth crowd.
METROPOLITAN A. M. E. ZION
CHURCH
Our services on last Sunday were largely attended, and very interesting in every respect.
The Sunday school at 9:30 a.m. was a source of much inspiration for all present. We would be pleased to have you present on next Sunday.
At the morning preaching hour the pastor, Rev. N. D. King, delivered an excellent Gospel message to the delight of all present.
At the evening service the pastor delivered another instructive and logical message to the edification of his hearers. The services on Sunday night were a veritable "thanksgiving service," as we had been engaged in financial effort to lift the bonded indebtedness on the church and in the services on Sunday night succeeded in raising the necessary amount, $2,300, (twenty-three hundred dollars.) When this was announced there was really a shout in Zion and much rejoicing evidenced. In the very near future the church will hold dedicatory services and following this the pastor and officials are planning for the mortgage burning and a reception for the members and loyal friends. Strangers, visitors and friends are always welcome to all of our services.
FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH
"Jesus wanted his work unheralded because of the nature of the work rendered. Some service could not be rendered longer if given publicity." Tim spoke Rev. Howling in the course of an instructive and timely sermon last Sunday morning from the subject, "Unheralded Service." Text, Matt. 12:15-16.
The Sunday school and B. Y. P. U. were well attended. Those in attendance at the evening service were given a pleasant surprise. Rev. Lilburn C. Hurdle, "one of our own," but now pastoring in New Jersey, delivered a rich and effective sermon from the subject, "Christ and the
NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE
Resurrection." Text, Acts 17:18. After the service the members and friends met Rev. Hardle and exchanged greetings.
Strangers and visitors are always welcome. Come out this Sunday at 9:30. Everything to suit your special needs.
The R. H. Bowling Senior Class of the First Baptist Sunday school held its regular monthly meeting July 22, at the residence of Mr. Cecil Donald, 876 Washington avenue. The meeting was called to order by the President and a short discussion immediately followed concerning the Order of Creation and the Plagues Against the Egyptions. After a lively discussion the following officers were elected: President, Mr. Charles Whiting; vice-president, Mr. Theodore Butler; secretary, Mr. Clinton Venable; treasurer, Mr. Edward Archer; assistant, Mr. Paul Burton; chaplain, Mr. James Archer; sargent at arms, Mr. William Hucks. Refreshments were served after the election and then a motion was accepted for adjournment.

This was enjoyed by those present. A rally for $3,000.00 was launched last Sunday. The church is divided in two tribes. Jas, W. Davis, commander Tribe of Moses, and Michel Epps, of Asaron. The pastor, Rev. T. W. Cotton, will fill the pulpit next Sunday morning, and evening. Holy Communion both services. You are welcome.
GRACE P. E. CHURCH
The church school last Sunday morning under the direction of Mr. W. H. Merritt, superintendent, was very interesting. Quite a number of the scholars were out and received instructions from the teachers present. The Bible class taught each Sunday by the rector is growing in interest. The sermon at the morning service was full of thought and much of inspiration based upon the "Three Periods of Human Life." It is very gratifying to be present at the 11 a.m. service. At this time the congregation takes pleasure in attending worship.
The evening service was interesting, though the attendance was small, yet the rector and choir did their duty. On this Sunday at 11 o'clock, the Holy Communion will be administered. The members are expected in large numbers to be present. On Tuesday, 9th, quite a number from the parish will attend the convocation at St. Paul's Union Level, Va. Rector, Rev. J. D. Dennis. All parishes are asked to send in reports and names of delegates to Rev. E. H. Hamilton, Hampton, Va.
BOLLING BROOK BAPT. CHURCH
Sunday was a glorious day at the First Baptist church of Bolling Brook. The Sunday school was largely attended. Miss Sarah Price's class was over-crowded.

CHURCH
The early morning prayer service began at 6:30. A goodly number were present.
A large number of scholars were present at the opening of the Sunday School at 9:30. The Supt. and his co-workers are putting forth every effort to keep a live school. Several visitors were present to join in with us in the rehearsal of the lesson. A letter was read from the Mayor of Ivor, Va. commending the school for its excellent conduct in his town session Monday, the day of our excursion. He also invited us to come again at our earlst convenience. At 11:30 the pastor preached a wonderful sermon from 1st Sum. 15:13-14. Every heart was happy as the words fell from his lips. After the sermon he sang a good old hymn accompanied by the organ, the congregation joining in on the chorus. We felt that there was no better place to be in the house of the Lord to listen to his word.
At 8:30 the pastor preached to the
men and women in the church
enjoyed the messages. The day heir
so hot there weren't so many of the sisters present, but those who came were benefited by coming. At 5:30 the B. Y. P. U. held its exercise. Deacon A. E. Hill the Instructor had charge of the exercise. The 100 Palm was read and beautiful, and several visitors were present and spoke words of encouragement. We are always glad to have them with us.
At 7:30 the prayer service was led by Bro. Frank Burden. 8:00 p.m. the pastor preached from John 11:11. After listening to so great a scronom we all decided that Jesus was the only real friend and that we needed more of his love in our hearts in order that we might be real friends one toward another. The two closed with much success for the Master with his Kingdom. Collection $218.43. E. D. Bailey, D. Reprint.
TRINITY A. M. E. CHURCH

Sunday night, a large crowd assembled at Trinity to hear the sacred concert readered by the choir, and local talent. All the participants deserve great praise. Watch for the next fifth Sunday program. Visitors are welcomed at our church.

"Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde"
The Lafayette Players will present this weird tragedy at the Attucks Theatre August 19th, 11th, 12th, and 13th. "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde," is without question the greatest play ever staged and was Richard Mansfield's greatest artistic success. "Dr. Jekyll," the chemical scientist, loved and respected by friends and business associates, "Mr. Hyde," the friend, deformed in body and mind, with the soul of a devil, one man with two individualities. Every person is possessed of two cardinal influences, namely good and evil, but the supremacy of either depends entirely upon the individual. "Dr. Jekyll" could, with the aid of his scientific knowledge, transform himself from a man to a devil. He could cross the great divide of natural and supernatural at will. He was truly a genius. Nature, though, demands a heavy load from anyone using her to satisfy a solitary whim, and in the end "Dr. Jekyll" realized this fact only too well. The public of Norfolk should, in a body, see this truly wonderful, though weird, tragedy. "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" is a dramatic masterpiece, and the Lafayette Players will endeavor to justify its presentation. The company will be composed of Misses Ola Mae Taylor and Ethel Pope, and Messrs. Plater, Jackson, Mills, Hemming, Gregg and Townsend. The title role will be played by that "master villian," W. Babe Townsend. Miss Taylor and Mr. Plater, Norfolk's favorites, will have prominent parts.
PUTTING IT OVER
Big Rich, N. Gregg
Last Monday, July 26th, 26th, and
28th, "Putting It Over," was rendered
by the Lafayette Players at the Attacks Theatre with great success with
the following cast: Mr. Arthur Simmons, Jackson Stewart, Tom Brown -
civil engineer; Mr. H. L. Pryor, Phil Lannon - contractor; Mr. Frances
Moreys, Dave; Mr. Richard N. Gregg, Daintry - assistant engineer; Mr. Allie
Hughes, Holton - valet; Miss Viola
Carter, Miss Lane; Miss C. May
Banks, Aunt Julia; Miss Agdell Dodson,
Louise Lamen.
The scene was laid in the valley of the great Southwest, and through the trickery of Tom Brown, who had taken the plans of Jack Stewart, the engineer, who originally drew of the plans for the Other Dum in the Ober Valley, was finally caught in his unfair dealing with his scholars and being a good sport decided to make a thorough investigation of the work, and after this latter best was found that one of the contractor Phil Lichten was at the head of all the defraining in the material, especially in the construction of the same. As the story runs, we come in contact with a bit of thrill, paths and laughter and ending in the usual way after a bit of romance leaked out of this dam affair two couples were married and lived happily ever after.
The company left last Thursday evening for a run of two weeks in Richmond.
Little Bay Beach is becoming more popular as the added attractions arrive. Each week night finds a lively crowd at this popular resort and thousands go there on Sundays. Seldom a night passes that two or three hay-riding parties do not arrive at the beach. Nearly very day some church, Sunday school, club or organization goes to Little Bay on a picnic. Among the recent added attractions at the beach is a merry-go-round that has been a delight to the kiddies and some of the grown-ups since its installation. The kiddies especially enjoy this sport. Nothing is more delightful to them than a ride on a whirling, galloping and musical merry-go-round.
Interest is not lagging in the bathing at the beach. Nothing is more refreshing and cooling than a dip in the briny waters these hot sultry days and the public is finding Little Bay the most advantageous and delightful spot for this sport, in Tidewater.

My Dear Friends and Patrons:-
Just as it depends upon who is behind the gun; the same may be applied to all business. The furious Tiger of bitter competition, is snapping at the heels of business. If you are caught on the defensive you are licked before you start. Therefore we feel that if we did not thank our loyal friends for their co-operation during the past few months, in helping us to make this hotel so successful, we would be doing them an injustice. We want to congratulate you all for your hearty co-operation. It is our desire at all time to render to you the best service possible. We invite you to call and inspect our headquarters this season. You are aware that we always more than match all other houses in style and quality, prices always less, and we therefore ask your patronage with very assurance that you will be pleased.
Yours very respectfully,
The Huntersville Hotel,
J. W. Faltz, Manager,
Mrs. J. W. Faltz, isn't Manager.
Mr. Brown, the manager of the resort, is on his toes at all times seeking the comfort and convenience of his guests. With the cooperation of Mr. and Mrs. Bright and the Bright family he is making a success of the resort and under his direction Little Bay is destined to become the greatest summering place for colored people in America.
Norfolk's baseball fans were treated to two exceptionally fine games of ball Monday and Tuesday, August 1st and 2nd, between the Bacharach Gts. of New York, and the C. I. Taylor A. B. Cts of Indianapolis, Ind. The park Monday was packed to the utmost and showed the popularity of the two teams. Home runs featured the game. Score, 6 to 1 in favor of Bacharach Giants.

Umpires; Jamison and Wright.
Score by innings:
A. B. C. 501 004 012
Bacharach 202 000 400
The teams are evenly matched and
the game was evidently won by the
superb pitching of Dismukes for the
A. B. Cs. The Bacharachs changed
pitches twice before finally putting
in Redding for the best two innings,
but were unable to check the batting
of their opponents. Home runs and
two and three hits were common
occurrences for the Westerners,
and the game was clean and fast.
Almanac Kurtz deserves much credit
it for bringing such stars to Nor-
folk.
The teams left Tuesday night for Richmond, where they are scheduled to play a series of games, and will return next week to Atlantic city, where they will be joined by our popular umpire, Kid Mason, who has signed up with them as umpire.
Manager Knux, our local favorite, left with the boys and will endeavor to secure some more good games for Norfolk.

Norfolk Summer Institute
The fifth annual State Summer Institute closed Friday evening, July 29, 1921. There were 106 teachers in attendance and 104 who attempted the State examination. Every teacher voted that they had never been treated better by the people with whom they boarded. And the presentation of subject matter by their instructors was easy, plain and placed before them in such a manner that they feel that the fault of their not passing cannot be placed at the door of their instructors.
The local teachers headed by a committee entertained the visiting teachers with a literary program, followed with an automobile run Wednesday

LARGE CROWD HEARD
MORRIS IN EDENTON
The coming of Charles Satechell Morris, Jr., Inst Sunday, July 31st, to Edenton, N. C., was one of the most successful events of the present year. He arrived in the city early in the afternoon and spoke to a large audience at 3 o'clock in the Kedich A. M. E. Zion church. He was presented by his warm personal friend, Rev. Dr. E. T. Melver, the pastor. In the afternoon he was entertained on an automobile tour by Prof. R. B. McRae. In the evening he spoke in the same church to an overflow audience of at least 1,000 persons, individuals being present from Hertford, Elizabeth City, and other points. His brilliant and eloquent address was appreciably applauded. Returning to Norfolk Monday morning he departed for Petersburg in the afternoon, where he addressed a huge audience at night in the Metropolitan Baptist church, of which Rev. Dr. Eli Fartte is pastor. Prominent citizens of the city are arranging for him to return next month and speak in the commendations Academy of Music.

Premier Military Band, Inc. Loses A Faithful Member
Mr. Albertie Smith, a loyal and faithful member of the Premier Military Band, inc. of Norfolk, Va., died of gunshot wounds received on Thursday morning, July 28, 1921.
Being customary among musical organizations to join in paying their last respects to a deceased brother, it was very unfortunate in this particular that the same could not be demonstrated, owing to the fact that the Burial Association refused at the last moment, on some technical grounds, to handle the body. The funeral arrangements could not be definitely arranged.
We deem it our duty to enlighten the public as to the facts in the case. Owing to the rapid decomposition of the body it was impossible for the undertaker to keep it up until other arrangements for the funeral could be made. He was a faithful and dutiful member, striving at all times for the uplift of the organization to which he belonged. We therefore regret very much his sad demise.

Advertise Your Business
Advertising is the life of trade. The business man who labors under the impression that "every bcdy knows me" will make very slow progress and will soon be wondering why the other fellow is out-stepping him.
Billy Sunday preaches to more people than any other minister because he advertises the gospel.
Had John Wanamaker had the "every body knows me" idea he would today be the obscure merchant he was when he started in business. He believes in advertising and has built up a hundred million dollar business and a national reputation. Everybody knows where Wanamaker's store is, but for fear that somebody will miss his sale he puts a page ad in the newspaper every day.
Some business men depend on their old customers to bring new ones. That's good, but many men are out of business today because their old customers died.
Keep your business alive through an efficient advertising medium. The Norfolk Journal and Guide will deliver your message in twelve thousa 11 colored American Homes. Don't be a dead head. Get some pep and expand your business through the medium of advertising.
A telephone call will bring our representative.

THE WOMAN'S BETHANY
CONVENTION
The Women's Bethany Convention met July 7th, 1921 with the Home Mission Circle of Pleasant Plain Baptist Church, Cappon, Va. The convention was largely attended. On the first day Dr. C. P. Madison of Norfolk, preached an able sermon. Rev. Tish, a native of Africa who was educated at the Virginia Seminary and College at Lynchburg, was present and spoke to the convention, telling of the conditions existing in his native land and of his anxiety to return to his people. The convention donated him with $165.00 to help defray his expenses home. Friday morning very impressive elegant services were held in memory of the late, Mrs. Julin Jordan, who had been president of the convention since its organization, twenty years ago. The convention is doing a great work for missions and education. Each year they send a contribution to the Virginia Seminary through the W. B. S. E. Convention. Prior to the meeting of the convention they sent $400 to the state Foriegn Board. Below is the letter from Rev. T. J. King, president of the Foreign Board, to Mrs. Amelia Bias, secretary of Bethany Convention. The next meeting will be held in Nasemond County. Over $800 was raised at the last meeting. Mrs. Edna King, president, Mrs. Amelia Bins, secretary.

My Dear Mrs. Bias:
I cannot begin to express to you
our deep appreciation of the check
for $400.00 (four hundred dollars)
sent us from the Bethany District
Woman's Convention by you to our
State Foreign Mission Board.
On my return from Africa next
January, the Lord willing, our plans
for a great school in Africa will take
definite and concrete form, if we
expect to begin work. We have now
in our Foreign Mission Treasury
between four and five thousand dollars.
I am earnestly praying to see some
thing, accomplished to Virginia's credit
on the Foreign field and to this
end, I am praying that all of our local
bodies may work.
Where are you meeting this year?
We are in our mid-summer revival
next week, but if it is not too far I
may run out for an hour.
As chairman of theForeign Mission Society I am writing to acknowledge the receipt of Four hundred
