Big Home Furnishing House Built On Service and Good Will JACK JOHNSON IN ROLE OF PREACHER Denies Bible Told Him to Marry Only a Certain Kind of Woman New York.—With an open Bible before him and the Golden Rule as his subject, John Arthur (Jiack) Johnson, former world's heavyweight champion, who recently finished a prison term for violating the Mann White Slave law, protested his innocence of all wrongdoing to a cofedored church audience here. So Sunday he sailed as hypothetics and cowards those who had attacked his character, and closed with a plea to his hearers to help in solving the race problem by leading a Christian life. This book teaches you to be fair-minded and not resisting to the Bible as he spoke in the New York Baptist Tabernacle, 125th Street and Madison Avenue, "and to be sympathetic to others in their trouble. I have always tried to live by the Bible's teaching, as my mother told me to do. Is there any one here who has misunderstood the Bible and lived up to the Golden Rule? If there is one here without sin, let him rise. "The Bible teaches us to go into the bottoms pit, if need be, and get out the one who is sinking there. All the dirt that has been done me was done by those cowards with prejudiced minds, those hypocrites who knee and pray on Sunday and commit slander the rest of the week. Cut me open, and I have written upon my heart that I have never done wrong to my fellow men." After referring to attacks by what he called "underhand and hypocritical" newspapers, Johnson read from the Bible the words, "Thou shalt take unto yourself a wife." "It doesn't say what kind of a wife, he went on. "Chinese or white or green or black or any other kind, I took up myself. Just as the Bible me to and just because she a college student people were down on me. I suppose if I had married some woman of the streets it would have been all right. I'm sure I've lived up to all the rules any hurdle should live up to." Johnson then spoke of the race problem, said he hoped the Ethiopian race would come to have equal rights with white men, and urged his heartfelt plea, "You who are religions, follow this book, he cried. "Never carry malice, remember that you must crawl before you walk; and may God bless you all." The audience of 200, mostly women, followed Johnson's talk with murmurs of approval, sympathetic cries of yes, yes, and an occasional hand clap. The minister, the Rev. Lewis Cwisty, in his opening prayer asked for, in blessing on the speaker the hour. "I drunk Wheaton, a lawyer, introduced the former champion. "The victim of unfair treatment and denied a square deal," he said, "this man has declared, if society feels wronged, I have paid the penalty." Should not a Christian community receive with open arms he who comes out into the world with clean hands and a clean heart? Durham Business Men In The City Mr. W. Gomez, secretary and manager of the Bankers Fire Insurance Company, and Mr. T. David Parham, secretary-treasurer of the Fraternal Insurance Company, and Mr. D. Durham, N. C, were in the city Tuesday and Wednesday of this week on business connected with their respective concerns. Both the gentlemen were optimistic as to the business outlook, and predicted that it would be in good condition in present uncertain conditions throughout the country would be seen. NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, AUGUST 13, 1921 Norfolk can proudly boast of the largest home furnishing concern in the South. Phillip Levy & Company, a home-furnisher, have built up a handsome business that surpasses in volume any of its kind South of New York. The company is compelled by the good will of the people acquired through fair-dealing. This big corporation, which has two mannoth stores in Norfolk, one at Church and Main and one at 626 Church street, also has branch stores in many other Southern cities. The company has three Messes, Phillip and Harry Levy, the former now dead, and the latter now president of the company. These two splendid merchants had a very modest beginning, but through uniform courtesy and fair business dealing have built up one of the largest business enterprises in the world. Every man in the Phillip Levy Stores has the qualities that have brought success to every American business that has attained success. They are picked by Mr. Harry Levy, the present head, with that end in view. Mr. L. Rafelman, the manager of the store, is one of the best known men in Norfolk, and there is not a business man in the city who is more popular. Likewise the heads of all the various departments of the big store are capable, curtous, high-class men. Mr. Wurthman, the manager of the Church store, is also a man of splendid importance and a man of the best men in the Phillip Levy organization. The Phillip Levy Company announces in this week's issue of the JOURNAL AND GUIDE a number of exceptional bargains now on sale at their Church street store. It will pay to read their whole page announcement on page 7 and take advantage of the exceptionally liberal prices and terms offered on furniture of the highest quality. Rabbit's Foot Makes Good After 20 Years Former Newport, Ky., Sheriff Plunge Over 25-Foot Embankment in Auto, but Escapes Newport, Ky., July 31—For twenty years Ex-Sheriff John P. Nagel has carried for luck in his left hip pocket the left foot of a rabbit, killed at midnight in a Kentucky graveyard. Last night, the rabbit's foot made good. Mr. Nagel, alone in his nut-mobile, was driving along the Waterworks road on his way to Fort Thomas when something went wrong with the car and it shot over a twenty-five-foot distance. As the car leaped into space, Mr. Nagel bung on. The machine turned over in its flight and landed in a creek, wheels up. Mr. Nagel uncoiled himself from the steering wheel, wiped the water out of his eyes and waded ashore. Two slight scratches on his forehead were his only injuries. Two hours later, he mailed a post card to each of 100 friends who in the twenty years had been among the thousands that had joined him about the rabbit's foot. The cards read: "I told you so."

Colored Ministers Plan Community Improvement COOPERATION TEACHERS AIM FOR VIRGINIA TO INCREASE FARMERS EFFICIENCY Dr. J. H. Dillard Tells Negroes to Take Courage—South Carolina Is Building Many Schools—Teachers and Ministers Co-Operate—Racial Understanding Secured Through Conference By Wm. Anthony Aery Hampton, Va.,—That Negro rural ministers of western South Carolina are heartily interested in securing better school facilities, in improving farm life, in teaching men, women, and children to keep well, and in developing formal organization, as well as in making a church a stronger force in community life was clearly shown at the recent four-day conference, which was held jointly with a summer school for teachers at Bettis Academy, located seven miles from Trenton, S. C., on a sand hill—an educational and recreational mecca for thousands of plodding Dr. James Hardy Dillard of Charleston, Va., president of the Jones and Slater Boards, was the guiding spirit. He gave some helpful and inspiring talks on "How to Study the Bible." Associated with Dr. Dillard on the staff of instructors, were Dr. James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton Institute, who spoke on "How to Make a Bible," "How to Study the Bible," "The Ministers and His Care respondence"; Rev. Laurence Fenninger, chaplain of Hampton Institute; "Sunday-school Work"; Jackson Davis, field agent General Education Board; "Church and Community"; Sand.W. T. B. Williams of Tusgenee Institute; "Church Finance and Records." The ministers' registration last reached 88. Probably 225 to 250 ministers attended the conference. Some came long distance - 59 to 290. The number was numbered over 299. These two strong rural-life forces were brought together most helpfully in mid- and evening devotional services, services at which faithful, faithful men State Director of Extension Work Gives State Farmers Practical Advice at Hampton Agricultural Conference SHOULD GROW HOME SUPPLIES Hampton, Va.—"Back of good marketing is economical production; better marketing will not cure poor farming. We must learn to grow our home supplies and so be in a position to merchandise our tobacco instead of dumping it." John R. Hutcheson of Blackburg, State director of extension work, recently made this appeal to the members of Hampton Institute Farmers' Conference. "This period of depression," said Director Hutcheson, "will be worth all that it has cost farmers, if it teaches them two things; namely to grow their home supplies and to work better plans for so operatively to grow the crops. The Mersey Shore Produce Exchange, the Muryland and Virginia Milk Producers Association, and the co-operative livestock shipping associations, which are already in successful operation, show what can be done through co-operation. The Virginia-Carolina Peanut Growers Association, the Tennessee Tobacco Growers Association, the State Wool Pool, and the Southwest Virginia Cabbage Growers' Association are all making rapid strides toward the perfection of commodity marketing organizations." Director Hutcheson then outlined the history of origin and development of the Co-operative Tobacco Growers' Association. "The contract which is being signed by the tobacco growers," he said, "contains the best things that have been worked out along the line of cooperative marketing. The organization is built around one commodity, or one monopoly, for, if the farmers, through their organization, should try to set arbitrary prices, then the consumption, would be cut down or enough people would go into the production of tobacco to break up the organization. "It is based on a five year contract. In California farmers are now signalling that they will Denmark fifteen year contracts are fashionable. The contracts are legally binding and enforceable. Too many farm organizations have been broken up by weak-knee brothers. "The organization will be handled by business men. The sales manager, for example, must know the selling price of the tobacco. He know how to get trade information in regard to world supply and demand. He must know how to deal with business men in a business-like way. "It is not the idea of the organization to put anybody out of business, except the speculator and waster, warehouses, banks, and manufacturing facilities, all necessary for the success of this co-operative organization. "The tobacco will be graded, pooled and handled absolutely co-operatively. Every grower having tobacco of a particular grade will get the same price as every other grower having that grade, no matter who he may be, for the success of business purposes and there can be absolutely no discrimination." and women poured forth in rich heart-songs the joys and sorrows of a race that is finding its way to light and truth—and there the devoted servants who are raising race listened to in inspiring addresses from white and colored Friends. Progress In Negro Education Hon. John E. Swearingen, State superintendent of education for South Carolina, who is backing to the limit the program of "better schools for all citizens," stated that, with cotton falling from forty cents a pound to six cents a pound, "everybody must do a great deal of extra work to hold what has been gained in more proactive times and must get a fixed resolution to the problem." Superintendent Swearinger paid a wristtache to the work and worth of Alfred W. Nicholson, president of Bettis Academy who, through many long years of up-hill struggle, has won the respect and confidence of white and colorful citizens on account of his unselfish and wise program of service, both as an educator and as a community organizer. The present president of Superintendent Swearinger and J B. Felton, State supervisor of Negro schools in South Carolina, was deeply appreciated by the Negro ministers and teachers, who were pleased to hear that this year, according to Supervisor Felton, one-third of all the Negro teachers of South Carolina are attending summer school; that last year forty-nine Negro schools were built and this year probably will be built; that last year the South Carolina legislature gave $15,000 for Negro schools and that Negroes themselves added another $20,000 to this amount. GRANTED DIVORCE A decree of absolute divorce has been granted Frances Swift from James Swift, by Judge of the Hustings Court of Portsmouth.

TEACHERS AIM TO INCREASE EFFICIENCY 637 Men and Women From 17 States Attended Hampton Institute Summer School. Hampton May Be Teachers' College. COURSES TO BE ENLARGED In Win. Anthony Aeru Hampton, Va.—Hampton Institute has just closed the most successful summer school in all its history. Some 637 colored teachers came from 17 States. Virginia led the list with 187 and was closely followed by North Carolina with 108. South Carolina with 177, Tennessee with 34, Tennessee with 25, and Mississippi, 21. "More than one-buff of those who were refused admission on account of lack of room," said Dr. George P. Phenix, vice-principal of Hampton Institute and director of the summer school, "were from States not contiguous to Virginia." The summer school enrollment included 44 county-training school teachers (including 33 principals); 52 high-school teachers (including 7 principals); 44 principals of graded schools; 54 industrial supervising teachers; and 14 matrons of boarding schools. "It is not improbable," said Dr. Phenix, that in the near future Hampton Institute will cover 12 weeks of work, besides continuing the present summer school of six weeks. Dr. Phenix, in his closing address, outlined the progressive policy of the educational needs of the colored people. He also referred to the growing interest which white people have been taking in the so-called Hampton ideas. "Today Hampton Institute," said Dr. Phoenix, "Hampton Institute is essentially a four-year secondary school which must connect with the public schools. It also offers instruction in thirteen trades. Hampton maintains a high-school course as a preparatory course for those who wish to enter the two-year college, two-year universities, and college cultural courses. It is my hope and belief that Hampton Institute will become a teachers' college for colored people and that it will in time grant a degree for its college work in agriculture. Hampton wishes now, as always, to meet the educational needs of the colored people." Montana Governor Appoints Negro Buchanan III, Aug. 4—Gov. Joseph M. Dixon, of Montana, has appointed Henry Baker, of this city, postmaster at the State Capital. In a personal letter to John D. Gainey, a Chicago friend, 4813 St. Lawrence avenue, Governor Dixon writes that he has always wanted to give the colored voters of the State of Montana something beside the janitor type of appointment and though he had but 22 appointe offices with over 1,000 appointe he for the mayor appointe Henry Baker. Mr. Gainey states that Baker is one of the best known and most highly respected citizens of Montana and that his appointment is being universally commended. Ten Tax Changes Asked by Mellon Washington, D. C.—Secretary of the Treasury Mellon has recommended the following changes in tax laws: Reduction of higher surtax on big incomes. Repeal of the $2,000 exemption on income taxes. Increase of 5 per cent in the present 10 per cent corporation income tax Reduction by one-half of the freight and passenger transportation taxes. Repeal of the ice cream and soda water tax. Fixing the tax on perfumes, cosmetics and proprietary medicines from consumer to producer A two-cent stamp tax on sight Federal license tax on motor vehicles, averaging $10.00. Slight increases in taxes on cigarettes and tobacco. SHOT IN BACK; NOT IN FACE, AS OFFICER TOLD HIS SUPERIOR On last Saturday night, James Evans, who lived in Fox Lane with his family had a difficulty with Mrs. Evans. Warm words and even some blows passed between the two, after which Mrs Evans proceeded to the preschool station where she swapped her warrant for her husband's arrest. The onestreet on the beat was ordered by the designee to arrest the husband, and ongoing to the Evans home found him in the back yard. Upon sight of the officers Evans fled, and was shot and killed by officer Light, one of the arresting officers. In making his retaliation the case officer Light said that he had been arrested by his Evans that his husband was arrested and often captured a picture of that when he called upon Evans. He turned around and put his hand to his hip pocket, not wishing to take a chaperone "I fired, hitting him in the face. He staggered about thirty feet then fell. He died immediately." At the coroner's impugn it developed that Evans was shot through back, while he was fleeing; that the bullet penetrated the heart from the back, and Mrs. Evans told a story that contradicted the one she is alleged to have told the police. The outcome of the ense will be watered with interest. LOCAL COLORED VOTERS TO MEET MONDAY NIGHT A meeting of all qualified colored voters is called for Monday night in the Y. M. C. A. assembly room. Questions of interest to local voters will be invited to the meeting. All qualified voters are invited and requested to be present. Advancement Association Proffers Aid In Haitian Probe Special to The Journal and Guide New York—Upon the announcement that the Senate had adopted the McCormick Resolution to inquire into the occupation and administration of the territories of the Dominican Republic of Haiti, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, through its secretary, James Weldon Johnson, placed at the disposal of the Senate Committee all of the data and material regarding the American occupation of Haiti. In making this objection, Johnson made the following statement: "It will be remembered that the first general knowledge of the nation of the United States Government in seizing without cause the Republic of Haiti, usurping all governmental functions, and through the Mayne murders during the course of five years the American occupation more than 3,500 Haitians died in 1920 of the investigation made by this Association. Since these facts were first brought into the light, the Association has worked unceasingly for a Congressional investigation, as it was felt strongly that in this manner could the real facts be secured. The official whitewash of the action of the Marines, which investigation was made by the officers of Joseph Daniels, at that time Secretary of the Navy, served only to increase the feeling among the Haitians and others of our neighbors to the South of us, that the American Government and the American people endorsed the vicious exploitation of a weaker Republic. "Every American who wishes to see America's name cleared of this stain will be glad to know of the Congressional investigation. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is placing all of its records and all information it possesses at the disposal of the Committee and will render all possible assistance in securing the facts." Mr. Johnson returned to New York from Washington today where he has been in conference with members of Congress. He will return to Washington to testify when the hearings are held. Dead Man Leaps From Grave Coweta, Okla.—Just before his body was to be lowered into the grave two days after he had "died," Pompey Washington, Coweta, Negro, 40 years old, leaped from his coffin a live and dead man, and some time before they could be induced to return. The Negro insists that he saw visions. PROGRESSIVE IN EVERY RESPECT PRICE FIVE CENTS SAYS SOUTH WILL SOLVE PROBLEM Southern White Minister Says White People Are Being More and More Convinced that Negro Is Not Seeking Social Equality DESIRE BETTER CONDITIONS Lake Jumalaska, N. C., Aug. 10. — The next big forward step in the solution of the race question will come from the South, the Rev. W. W. Alexander of Atlanta, secretary of the Co-ordinator of Inter-Racial Co-operation, predicted here today at the Layman's Conference on the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. "I say this with absolutely due regard for the friendship of the Negro in other sections, and with the fullest and unstinted gratitude for all they have done in philanthropy and education in church and State," the Rev. Mr. Alexander said. "Nevertheless, the next big step in the inter-racial readjustment is to come from the South, and the reason for this is perfectly apparent. "The South can afford to do it, and what is a great deal better, there is a growing conviction here based upon is sense of justice and fair play for all people in the South has social prestige to do. The social question figures largely in the question. So the South can, when it will take the leadership in international cooperation. "I will believe the South will assume this leadership, with the same sort of power and determination as it led the race in the overthrow of the run traffic. "It has been the universal opinion of those who have come in close touch with the question that Negro leaders do not desire or seek social equality. They have asked for police protection, better housing, better sanitary and living conditions, better educational facilities, and a chance to develop into American citizens with every determination to maintain their own social life and the purity of the two racial stocks. "The reasonableness and intelligence of Negro leaders greatly encouraged the white men who have come in contact with them. The fact that Southern white men and women have manifested their interest in Negro fare has gone far to allay the interest in Negro men, so was rapidly spreading through great sections of the Negro leadership in America." KNIGHTS OF GIDEON IN ANNUAL SESSION KNIGHTS OF GIDEON IN ANNUAL SESSION Special to The Journal and Guide Suffolk, Va.

B. YOUNG.....President and Editor M. G. YOUNG.....Sec.' and Asst. Editor SATURDAY, AUGUST 6, 1921 THE SORT OF INTOLERANCE THAT LEADS TO DISASTER If Mr. Joseph R. Pollard and Mr. J. Thomas Newsome and others, who are leading the lily-black party movement in the State would utilize against their common enemy the energy they are using in violent and misdirected fulminations against those whom they mistakenly believe are opposing their cause simply because they differ with them as to certain methods of procedure, they would gain more friends and co-workers. The conference at Bay Shore Sunday, and all of the conferences they have had, revealed the amazing fact that Chairman Pollard and those closely associated with him are entirely intolerant of any one who may hold an honest difference of opinion, and who may have the temerity to give expression to such an opinion either in a Pollard conference or in the press. It is evident that the organization has cumulated and intends to practice the most destructive tactics of the most notorious of political machines. This sort of practice may have been advantageous twenty-five or thirty years ago, but political conditions have greatly changed, and the presumptuous political boss who promulgates a scheme to suit his purposes and then with the assistance of hand-picked heutemans jams it through, is certainly doomed to meet the stern resentment and unyielding resistance of an intelligent electorate. The people of the State have not been heard from but they are going to be heard from before they permit a group of self-seeking and self-appointed political dictators to ruin their political and economic destiny. The people of the State do not know now a great deal which they will know soon about the history of this political oligarchy that presumes to traffic upon their votes. Fair warning is hereby served upon those who would rule or ruin. WE ARE INTERROGATED The Richmond American, in a double column editorial in its issue of the 8th, gets very much agitated over the views of the editor of this paper, on the political situation as it affects colored Virginians, as expressed in our editorial on the 30th of July, entitled "Where Able Leadership Is Needed." In rebuttal to our assertion that "Any attempt to show a larger Negro than white vote for the purpose of controlling patronage, even if it succeeded, would be futile, so far as the Harding administration is concerned." The American says: "No attempt is being made to show a larger Negro than white vote for the sake of controlling patronage, as such. The object is to keep the lily-white from controlling the patronage." Quite a high ideal upon which to establish a new political party, or to wrest control of the Republican party from those now in possession of it. After all, patronage and not principles, is the inspiration of the "solid-black" party, as the American calls it. The American also wants to know why the editor of this paper gave only one reason in our editorial of the 30th of July for declining the preffered nomination for lieutenant-governor on the "solid-black" ticket? If the American will read our telegram to chairman Pollard it will gather from it additional reasons. There are other reasons still which will be advanced in due time. The American editorial contained a lot of other twaddle about newspapers and banks and "the Cracker in the woodpile," which the JOURNAL AND GUIDE refuses to dignify by discussion of it. money that's putting your money fellow who puts his money in a savings account collects the dividends. The fellow who has no savings account pays the dividends. He is the unfortunate who works, yes, shaves for money. The former is the fortunate who manages his money in a manner so as to make it work for him. A wise and prudent fellow, he is, who carries around with him a smile of satisfaction and a feeling of security. Start your savings account today and get out of the class of money-slavers. active participation in politics have upon his growing industrial, business and financial interests? Will the moral effect be to make mob law more general and the security of his life and property more uncertain? On the face of it that would be the logical conclusion? Our hope is however, that it may be otherwise. Matters are and have been bad enough in these respects. They should become better. The best interests of the South will be assured by a more pre-occupied protection of the life and property and labor of all the citizenship. Let us hope that it may be so. Let us draw closer to the God of our fathers beyond the everlasting hills as we front the untried future with Christian hope and with the Christian Faith that makes all thing possible. GREAT BRITAIN'S OFF-COLG SUBJECTS One of the unexpected outcomes of the World War, which will have tremendous influence upon the future history of the world, is the passing of Imperial Power from the British Government to the British Dominions whose premiers have just announced that Great Britain should not expect any further contributions for naval expansion from them until after the Washington Disarmament Conference. These Dominion Premiers, who rule of course people, for the most part, have also imposed their race-prejudice program upon the Imperial Government; a program which does not allow the natives of the Dominion governments to have any voice in their affairs. This attitude was emphasized in their opposition to a renewal of the alliance between Japan and Great Britain. The 300,000,000 East Indian subjects of Great Britain have very little voice in their government, which is administered strictly in the interest of the white conquerors and overbirds; the same is true of the subjects of Egypt and the West Indies. These are not Dominion colonies, British South Africa, New Zealand, Australia and Canada are. In each case the administration of affairs is in the hands of the whites, who allow their subjects little voice and small participation in their own governments. Discontent and rebellion are always present. Under the workings of the changed order it books as if the Empire of Great Britain is doomed to disintegration. The Dominion Premiers are bound by the logic of history to insist upon a larger and larger voice in controlling their affairs, and when this shall be blocked they will inevitably seek separation from the Mother Country, as the American colonies did. Canada and Australia are already ripe for such a revolution. When it is once begun it is likely to extend to all of the Dominions and to the smaller colonies and big India. In the possible break up of the British Empire just how far the condition of the native off-color people may be benefited remains to be seen. The Empires of Spain, Austria, Germany and Russia have gone to smash within the memory of man, who looked for no such smash. Great Britain may go the same way sooner than is expected, as her sins are as great as those of those named as JAPAN CARRIES HER POINT The determination of the United States to go into the Conference on Disarmament and Far Eastern Questions without any program, leaving open for consideration matters that are regarded as closed by Japan, such as Yap and Shantung, has been overcome, as the news dispatches declare that the representatives of Great Britain, Japan and the United States have begun conversations on the program at Washington. Japan is withering her rights in insisting upon a program for the guidance of the Conference. The population of Japan is growing at the rate of 700,000 per annum, and she must have an outlet for it, as the limitations and producing capacity of her insulation are woefully inadequate to support the pop- MARSHAL'S STREET THE KU KLUX KLAN INVADES THE NORTH While Texas and other States of the South are beginning to be aroused by the excesses of the Klu Klux Klan, and are protesting in the legislatures, as in Texas, against the organization, and while organization of white men is being advised, as at Beaumont, Texas, to resist the organization, which has been perpetrating acts of violence against white men and women; while sentiment against the organization is growing in all directions in the Southern States, announcement has just been made that branches of the organization have been perfected at Newark, New Jersey, and at Lancaster, Pennsylvania, and that branch will be established in all of the guard of the people organized in conditions of confusion, and in dealing with outhound organizations in the past they have shown a determination that has in the end suppressed all such. They will do the same thing again when the operations of the Klu Klux Klan become offensive to law and legal process. No Nation is safe where two systems of administration are allowed to exist. A legal and responsible and an illegal and irresponsible administration of Government is impossible under any circumstances. The one must destroy the other. (En Chas. M. Tucker) The Rev. Mr. Clausen stated among other things in addressing the Northern Baptist Convention, Syracuse, N.Y. "If the new generation is irreligious, it is futile to spend time blaming the youngsters." Continuing he said, "The only thing for religious teachers to do is to find out what twenty-one wants; in its religion." If such a phase of Christian life exists, then the Rev. Mr. Clausen's idea is not to be confined to the Baptist alone, especially in virtue of the fact that he is involved in all churches to extend and foster their Christian principles into the lives of all young folk. As far as the church itself is concerned, it will continue to go on. The older members have the abiding faith in Christianity and the teaching; of the church of their belief which outside attractions have not the tendency to easily remove. However, as it is the desire and duty of the church to reach the young people, as well as the old; the Rev. Mr. Clausen's remedial opinion not only devolves such a deficiency on the older members of the church, but at the same time, makes the Church more effective in the congregarion is concerned. Granting that there was a tendency of the church to awake and stimulate enthusiasm among the younger church members, a survey of all churches concerning this matter would probably bring forth considerable variance of opinion. Some religious teachers would feel that the young people should have the same desire for the salvation of their souls as their parents have and to such a remark we would hasten to affirm. On the other hand, some would strongly advocate that the young people of this generation are foolish, too much enthusiastic toward "worldly things" religious, and "are bound straight to the devil", and to such an opinion would be disinclined toward affirmation. All these would be who would feel as the Rev. Mr. Clauseen does: "Find out what twenty-one wants in its religion" and therein might probably be found the feasible solution. Parents rightfully remark that in their day they were not as indulgent along "worldly things" as the young folk are today, and the reason is due to the dissimilitudes of environment in their day with the present time. This being true, the young people were more amenable to the teachings of religious teachers than to the unableness was not due to any difference in their composition. It probably was due to the congruities of the doctrine taught during that time when the influences of environment were not so pronounced as they are today. Possibly that was what the Rev. Mr. Clausen had in mind when he said that religious teachers should find out what twenty-one wants in its religion. Furthermore, due to the unchangeableness of human nature, the idea, which some religious teachers would advance that young people are less responsive now to church going, would not seem wholly acceptable; consequently, the worthiness of the Rev. Mr. Clausen's remark further approaches reasonableness in view of the belief that were young people approached convincingly now that the unchangeableness of the influence of present day on Mrs. Ludia Howell, of Hanover who underwent an operation-Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore rapidly improving. *Missoot Rodgers, of Mt.

Yate the avenue, Tuesday evening-business was transactee-reserved to a delicious repa Of course, we do not elect to say what twenty-one wants in its religion, but knowing that the sermon is the central feature of the church service, consideration should be given the two classes of them. Which is the most profitable, to the old as well as the young, the sermon which adheres strictly to the Word, or the sermon which interweaves the Biblical teachings into the every day life of those who constitute the congregation? The answer may lie midway between the two contents. To our mind, the minister who sticks strictly to the Word, who does not correlate the cravings of the flesh with the needs of the spirit, who does not tide over the perplexities of these days with the words of cheer, misses the real point of his mission. But the minister who seeks to interweave the teachings of the Great Nazareth into the present day affairs of men, more fully approaches his mission. The material child and the spiritual Father must be inextricably interwined. Long sermons covering from Genesis to Revelation not only bore the mind, but fail in their application to every day life. In order to be hospitable in the mind of the congregation, the sermon must be of such a length and nature that it will be easy of beneficial reflection. There are local ministers whom we know whose practicality of their sermons admirably and effectively have their influences upon their congregation. We have in mind one minister whose sermons are such a concatenation of ideas and day life that to miss them is like missing the benefits of a wholesome meal. Finally, the present day environmental influences are evidently here to stay. The young people have not changed in their composition, nor have they become statical in their inclination toward the church. They realize the importance of the church, spiritual benefit over a Christian life, the need for a church directed and unserviceable life. The church is the only emblem of spiritual guidance a community has; therefore, its functions should be made to cover the inexactribleness of the material child and the spiritual Father. Report of the Surgeonin-Chief of the Tidewater Colored Hospital for the Year Ending August 1, 1921 To the Board of Trustees and Friends of the Tidewater Hospital: This annual short-term professional work at the Tidewater Hospital marks the seventh year of the services of this institution to the people of this community. During these seven years the hospital has never been closed but once and that was due to an accident to its heating plant during the severe winter of 1917-1918. And during these years the beds of the hospital have almost constant demand and the management of all times aimed to give the best possible service to those who have come to us for treatment. The financial support from the public has been very small compared with the service the hospital has rendered the public. Donations from all sources have never been sufficient to even meet the interest charges on the bond property. Whatever may be the reason for the inability of the hospital to get the public sufficiently interested in its work to give more liberally towards its support, the fact remains that the hospital is not handicapped by debts and is in a position to give the best of service to its patients. And in order to assure the patients of the best nursing care only graduate trained nurses are employed who are duly registered to practice their profession in this State. Our plan to enlarge the hospital plant has been temporarily abandoned on account of the present nation wide money stringency. The campaign put on last spring for this purpose was practically a failure due to the lack of work and money. Less than $550 per month deducting expenses less than four hundred dollars was left for the building fund. As soon as conditions warrant, it the enlarged building will become a reality and the hospital will be in a position to accommodate a larger number of patients. Just as the first building and equipment have been secured we hope that the new buildings will be secured and that the hospital will be able to provide did service it has been rendering the people of this community for the past seven years. There were 256 patients treated at the hospital for the year ending August 1, 1921. Of this number there were 221 operations with 7 deaths and 34 medical patients with 5 deaths. From the number of operations performed there were only 7 deaths, or 34 per cent of the cases, and there were only 3 and one-third deaths out of every one hundred operations performed. This small death rate can be reduced even more if people needing operations would have them performed earlier instead of making an operation the treatment of last resort. Most of our medical cases come to us in the last stages of some fatal malady. We would earnestly suggest that patients when duly advised by a competent doctor in the course of a good geon that they do so, because it will mean so much to the health and well being of the patient. The aim of the hospital is to give the colored people of this community as good hospital services as they may be able to obtain anywhere in this country. In order to do this we most earnestly solicit the co-operation and aid of the people of this entire community and co-operation will it be possible to carry out successfully the very fine work the hospital is now doing. During the past year more interest has been taken in our work by the churches, lodges, and the general public than ever before and there is every reason to believe that the future is brighter for greater things. We gratefully thank every one who has in any way contributed to the success of the hospital and sincerely hope they and others will continue to serve in hospital their support. For recent donations we wish to thank the Daughters of Newfolk for $5.00 and the Needle Work Guild of Grace Episcopal church for linen, gauze, etc. Very respectfully submitted, WILBUR A. DRAKE, M. D. Surgeon-in-Charge. TIDEWATER TALKS ON THRIFT BY EDWARD A. BAKER Assistant Treasurer Tidewater Bank & Trust Co. "Teach economy, it is one of the most and highest virtues, it begins with Saving." -Lincoln holding the most exalted office in the land, appreciated as keenly as its humblest citizen the value of a dollar. The career of Lincoln is an illustration of what a single individual, cut off from all the advantages of life, can accomplish through the exercise of courage, determination, commonsense and a little self-denial. To be frank, to be fearless, to be determined and to be frugal were the beliefs to which he adhered. Courage, common sense coupled with a little self denial is all that is needed of the man or woman who would save and succeed. The more you produce and the more you save, the richer you are and the better you will be. The more production needed more today than ever before. We need to make ourselves DOERS, NOT DREAMERS. We all know the Dreamer, the one who always wishes he had certain things in life, but never makes a determined effort to get them. We builds air castles which he uses to materialize without any hard work he does. Is the Doer, the man of action. He too builds air castles, but builds them on a foundation made strong and secure by constant hard work and Savings. He also dreams of the future, but prepares for it by steady, consistent savings. He makes his dreams come true and materialize by saving them he can do. That is the Tidewater Bank & Trust Company. If you are not in the DOERS class by all means get into it today by starting an account of $1.00 or more in the Tidewater Bank & Trust Co.

Y EXTRADI TION CASE WON Special to The Journal and Guide New York City—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People announced today the succession of the long and difficult time to prevent the return of Thomas R. Hawkins man, from Michigan to Wilkinson County, Ga., where he was wanted on a charge of murder. Early in September of 1920, Ray was arrested in Detroit. Prior to that time he had been working on a farm in Wilkinson County, Ga., when he was attacked by Dewitt Faulkner, the man of had reputation. Faulkner, who was prized, had made an unwarranted assault, who in turn, fired in defense of his wife, killing Faulkner. Ray escaped to Canada and later went to Detroit, where he was arrested. Messrs. Willis and Hinton, of Detroit, were retained by Ray's father to prevent the extradition, and the Detroit branch of the N. A. A. C. P.律师, them its attorney and president, W. H. McKinney, Governor Albert Sleeper of Michigan granted the writ of extradition being appealed to by the Georgia authorities, in spite of the fact that it was clearly indicated that Ray would be lynched if returned for trial. Ray's attorney immediately applied for a writ of habeas corpus which was granted. As he was leaving the court room, he was re-arrested on the grand jury and said that he had been forwarded to Detroit from Georgian. The original arrest had been made on a warrant. The second writ of hagen corpus was applied for, but was denied. The attorneys then appealed from the decision of the County Circuit court to the State Supreme Court of Michigan, which court in turn affirmed the verdict of the lower court. Another appeal was then made to Governor Groebck, who, upon examination of the facts, ordered that the warrant of extortion be held in abeyance until proper investigation could be made into the charge that plans had been made to Lynch Ray on his return to the Southern State. This charge was amply proven by attorneys for Ray. On August 2nd, the National Office received the following telegram from Mr. McKinney: "Michigan's greatest governor revokes warrant in Ray case. Revoction of warrant ends case. Ray is free and released. If desired, will send Governor's opinion. Most wonderful." T "National Office immediately wired Governor Groebck, expressing the appreciation of all of its members for the brave action taken by him. The case was handled principally by the Detroit Branch, N. A. A. C. P. and Messrs. Willis and Hinton, while valuable assistance was rendered by the local churches and other bodies of Detroit. The National Office twice sent Assistant Secretary White to Michigan to testify regarding condition of the State—once before Governor Sleeper, and once when the motion for a writ of habeas corpus was heard in the Wayne County Circuit Court. VIDEWATER BANK AND TRUST CO. SAFETY SERVICE NORFOLK, VIRGINIA A LIVE BANK IN NORFOLK. When you think of Thrift--- Do you think of it as pleasant or unpleasant?

You can start in this bank with a deposit of $1.00 or more, thereby making your thrift practical. Tidewater Bank & Trust Co. A Live Bank In A Live City 738 CHURCH STREET NORFOLK, VA. ROANOKE. VA.

Conditions on the occasion of this bitter effort were divided: the affair that prevailed in the first instance that was attended with a pleasing success. The Sons of Norfolk led by the Execibor Brass and Reed Band marched from their hall to Portsmouth where they were joined by the Sons of Portsmouth and continued their march to the park.

AGENTS WANTED TYSON KO PARKING :-: RELIGIOUS NEWS :-: MODERATOR J. H. ASIBY, OF THE TIDEWATER PENINSULA BAPT 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. And if we are to live up to our past record it is imperative 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 Jennings Pastor, and on account of the favorable location of the church it is expected that a large delegation will be present, and preparations are being made to that and not to nothing hinder you from coming. The delegation represent is worthy of any sacrifice we may have to make. We are grateful to our Heavenly Father for his goodness manifested, and blessings received. Tidings from various parts of the district tell that our missionary group already attained, but of the splendid prospects which are still left you, we must accept the task which has been assigned us, "Go ye and make disciples of men." And as your standard bearer I feel that we can do this our contributions may be increasing our contributions to Education and Missions. Therefore, I am grateful that we realize our duty and likewise our opportunity as never before. The object of our Educational endeavor is our school at Lynchburg. We love it, and we support it, because it is ours. It represents the fore-bought of our fathers, and the hope of our sons. That school believes and teaches himself self help and self control. We believe that the Lynchburg Seminary and College is to mould the sentiment that shall shape the destiny of the Negro in this country. New buildings now under construction make it necessary that we make our donations as large as possible. From the mission fields come a call clear and constant, and it must ever be remembered that to give the gospel to the world is our task. The State Mission Board needs funds in Virginia to continue the work in Virginia. The Foreign Mission Board is planning to operate on 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 part, them, and that the Holy Spirit will attend our every effort, believe me to be yours for Christ and His cause.

In his remarks he mentions the one another's burdens and that our days should be others bright days, and that their dark days should be our dark days, saying that whoosover goes on without noticing the brother who is in trouble, simply because he himself seems to be prosperous, should remember that if a man think himself to be something, when he is not something, himself was a great lesson. Nine persons forward to unite with us while the pastor sang a good old hymn. The Lord surely was with the people of our church throughout the day for the spirit run high all day. The pastor was as strong at night as when he preached in the morning service. At 10 p.m. the pastor at 11 p.m. At this writing Mrs. Maggie Madison and Deacon Frank Cheeks are sick.

The men who are at the fore in bringing about this result are these: Rev. Dr. Jones as usher, Rev. Dr. Jones as vice president, and Bro. John Everett and his son, matinee on the local end where the conference was held. The Reporter does not see how any one can do otherwise than give praise to the Local Committee both sisters and brothers, splendid maner which they gave the twelve work of entertaining this conference You may say what you please about it; but it takes work and that done in a whole hearted and systematic way to carry out a program such as those people carried out at Mt. Gilead Church. But let us give you the work those people somewhat in detail, those who left for New York, enough on Tuesday morning at 9:10 a.m. Aug. 12, 1921 found ourselves in Hand, Va., at 11:00 a.m., where we were met by vehicles of conveyance mostly automobiles which soon had us over the dusty roads the distance of nine miles to the church where we saw expectant faces. The Presiding Rever and pastor Rev. J. C. Parola were at the station. The church is busy and had rooms built on the rear for Parola and committee work. No time was lost but the P. E. called the ministers of the district and Stewardies to order. After devotional exercises, organization was the order: P. E. called Revs. D. W. Baker, J. B. Williams and J. W. Sanders to the pulpit to open with religious services. Rev. Baker read a scripture lesson; Rev. Williams offered a lesson; Rev. Sanders conducted the de腔ogue service. The choir sung, "O for a clear walk with God ete," opening. The prayer was one that warmed up the hearts of the audience. Rev. W. R. Howerton was elected Secretary of the Conference; Rev. R. P. Goode Chief Marshall; Brother Moore of Richmond, Va., assistant Bounds of Conference fixed and conference proceeded to business. The program was carried out to the finest detail.

JEKYLL AND Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde was rendered by the Lafayette Players at the Attacks Theatre beginning on Wednesday, the 10th, 11th, 12th and 13th. This play was rendered to an overwhelming success with the following cast: Wm. (Babe) Townsend, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde; Harry Hennings, Mr. Uttonson; Harry Plater, Dr. Jekyll's companion and associate; Harrison Jackson, the Vicar; Richard N. Gregg, the chief detective of Scotland Yard; Miss Ethel Pope, the Vigern's daughter and sweetheart to Henry Jekyll; Clem Mills, Pool, the good old faithful. At the opening of this performance we see the Viear and Dr. Utterson, a close and esteemed friend of Dr. Jekyll, in close conversation of bygone days. As the story runs act by act, we find that there is a medical disturbance on the part of Dr. Henry Jekyll due to the fact of a discovery of a certain chemical which he used to carry out one of the most dastardly crimes that had ever been committed by any person. This crime was the murder of his prospective father-in-law. He did this crime in his sub-conscious mind while under the influence of this powerful drug, which at the time, he made use of this drug to off-set any who might suspect him of this crime. This Dr. Jekyll had set all London into confusion as to the identity of this Edward Hyde, whom he had called himself in his sub-conscious state. His personal friends were not aware of this drug being discovered and being used by him, consequently, he eliminated himself from all suspicion of the murder of his father-in-law. The second act we find the chief detective of Scotland Yards, a man who is well versed in criminology, at a complete standstill while conducting the investigations of the murder of the Vienna. He is seen in conversation in this act with Mr. Utterson, a personal friend and legal advisor of Dr. Jekyll. In the third act this strange character, or Edward Hyde, presents himself again and is almost cornered, but he finally evades pursuers. The fourth act is where the crimes of this man of double personalities are actually found out and rather than to betray himself and give to the world this marvellous discovery, he dies, leaving the world none the wiser. Miss Pope as Alice, the daughter of the Vicar, played her part exceptionally well. Mr. Wm. (Babe) Townsend, the black Richard Mansfield, showed unexceptional ability in the rendition of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. John Hemmings had every appearance of an English barrister. Harry Plater as Dr. Lanyon could not be excelled, and Harrison Jackson's manner as a Vicar, one would actually believe from his temperment and tone that he at one time in his life had executed some such office. Clem Mills gave the appearance of a perfect old English butler or companion to this mysterious Dr. Jekyll. Richard N. Gregg, the man who never fails, as detective Necomen of Scotland Yurds of London, gave every appearance of a detective and executed this position in extraordinary manner. Coming next week, the "Third Degree," beginning Wednesday, the 17th, 18th, 19th and 20th. A show that protrays absolute underworld life. A show that envolves some of New York's wealthiest. As you look at the show you can plainly see how some MR. HYDE men mount to the pedestal of eminence and finance, how they win their way to Empires over the bodies of their friends and associates and in the end lose all. This play is one filled with horrors and tragedy; to miss it you will miss one of the greatest plays protraying the life of the underworld in one of the greatest cities in the world, New York. And the tragedies of Pall-mall London, England; or the underworld of Paris, France. Secure your tickets early and avoid the rush. FRANKLIN, VA. (Mrs. Lillie E.

By giving One Cent a Day for the Great cause held up before us by the Church. Rev. West's paper on the "Moral Condition" was an able paper and while wholesale criticism was not made the paper took the position that our people could improve morally and that the love of worldly pleasure was entirely too prevalent for any rapid advancement to be made. Rev. Martin's paper on Missionary Effort had to be carried forward by a fuller consecution to the Master's work. Rev. W. J. White brought greetings from the Portsmouth District. Rev. Cotton showed how we needed both the Sunday school and the League as we need both the right hand as well as the left hand in our work in life. Rev. Baker showed how we as a Church stood for Holiness as it is found in our book of Discipline and it has been there from the first. Our Church does not harp on one thing however.

The business man who labors under the impression that "everybody 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.
