of Westfield Bapt
Springfield, Mass.—"When men
come to call each other 'chink,' 'dago,' 'bigger' and "sheeney" and every line of demarcation is swept away and all servants of God are known as brethren, America will come into its salvation," said Judge John Hildreth of Holyoke this morning at the opening of the 11th annual meeting of the Westfield Baptist association held in the First Baptist church, Chicopee Falls.
Judge Hildreth has earned a reputation for legal acumen, and to it may be added the laurels of an eloquent speaker.
People who make the present life the only aim of living make a big mistake, said Judge Hildreth. The time will come, he painted out, probably in the time of some of the present generation when the true brotherhood of man would be accomplished with the elimination of prejudice and personal interest.
He told the story of the man who took a visitor to the top of his new building, and on Sundays he the cathedral in the valley where "Why on Sunday?" the guest was
Worth While Suggestions for the College Student
Advice for the Students of Theology
Rev. Richard H. Bowling Consider the Ministry the "High Calling"
By Chas. M. Tucker
The NORPOLE JOURNAL AND GUIDE in an editorial on "Vacation Days Are Over" under date of September 3rd, said: "Every child should have a trade, or profession, or business education and his training, according to to his bent, from the kindergarten through the college course should have this purpose as its primary ultimate."
It is true that the present day necessities of life have become so imperative that the matter of an education, aside from the individual benefits received, is not one to be lightly dealt with. The process of education primarily fits a man thoroughly for the particular line of his endeavor. With the impartation of knowledge being brought nearer to us, through correspondence courses and night schools making it possible for one to acquire a vocation, especially for those whose circumstances prevent a furtherance of their education in boarding schools and colleges, the Editor's conception for educational training for every child rightfully argues that all should have a trade or profession or business education.
Charles Wagner, whose inspirational writings for young men rank among those of Orison Sweet Marden, Editor of the New Success Magazine, and Churchill, thinks that society has been benefited to a certain extent by some men stumbling into a career, "but the man who maps out his own future and unvacillatingly steers to its end, is the man who has mostly benefited society and mankind." In other words, Wagner asks all men to consider the career into which they go, and he urges every young man not "to go to college because a friend or a neighbor does, and after you have completed the course find that you are unsuited for what you trained yourself to become, making yourself a peg in a squiggle. Every young man who can should go to college, but before he goes, he should be sure he WANTS what he goes for."
Norfolk represents a large contribution of young men and women who are being trained in some of the largest and best institutions of learning throughout the country. To those students who would prepare themselves for the different professions, suggestions will be offered through the JOURNAL AND GUIDE from men of experience concerning the necessary qualifications and essentials for professional careers. These series of articles will be grouped as follows: Medicine and Pharmacy; Dentistry and Law; Banking and Business; Journalism and Pedagogy; Music.
To the ones who would prepare themselves for the ministry the Rev. Mr. R. H. Bowling, pastor of the First Baptist church, has the following suggestions to offer:
The man or woman who enters the ministry may still be said to be entering upon "the high calling." The modern Christian has come to see that every honest job is a calling and that the call comes from God. But the most advanced Christian thinker has to admit to himself that there is a sacredness about the ministry that
Norfolk Journal and Guide
asked. "Then the smoke of the busy plants does not hide it," was the answer. This story, he said, is comparable to the time when prejudice against subordinates from God will have passed and the house of God will be clearly seen.
LAX CODE OF MANY BUSINESS MEN
BLAMED FOR DEPRESSION
The convention opened with a devotional period by Rev. J. A. Jones, C. F., and the "keynote sermon" was preached by Rev. J. F. Watts. Mr. Watts blamed the lax code of many business men for the industrial depression. Their word was not as good as their bond and even their bonds were worthless for they canceled contracts, he said.
A welcome to new leaders in the association was obtained by Rev. Dr. E. M. Lake and L. L. Campbell the latter for the laymen. A talk on "What We Bring to the Westfield Association" was given by Rev. A. R. Diltz. Lunch was served by the women of the parish preceding the opening of the conference. One of the principal afternoon speakers was Rev. Dr. Neil McPherson of Springfield.
distinguishes it from any other life work. For this reason, if no other, the young college man should seriously consider whether or not the call of Ged is sounding forth to him to dedicate himself to this particular phase of life service.
"In pandering this question let the young man disabuse his mind of the false conception that a call to this particular work comes in some unexplainable and mysterious way. Mystery may attend the call of some, but for the average man the genuineness of a call to the ministry may be determined by the answers to just such commonsense questions as these:
"1. Do I have a liking for the work? If the man himself feels no thrill at the thought of how he would feel, if privileged to do the work of a minister, then he may possibly dismiss he matter without further consideration. For the true minister must have a love for what he will be called upon to do, as, for example, the master architect has for his planning or the pathologist for his study of unusual cases, or the prima donna for her arias. The true minister will naturally ove preaching, pastoral visiting, individual soul winning, the privilege of befriending all sorts and conditions of men and women.
2. Do I have qualifications for the work? The exacting work of the ministry demands qualifications which though brought out and refined by education, must be native gifts to the individual. Foremost among the many prerequisites are ability to speak convincingly, and reverence, integrity and friendliness. I dare say, God gives no call to this office to the man who jacks more than one of the four fundamentals named.
"3. D I have a deep rooted feeling, after careful consideration and prayer, that God would have me do this work rather than any other? That is the sense in which Paul used the oft-quoted words: 'Woe is unto me, If I preach not the Gospel.' The God-called minister will feel so certain of Divine appointment to the work, that he will have a positive fear about neglecting this work for the sake of working in other fields, Like Paul again, he will he ever crying, 'Necessity is laid upon me.'
"To all who can conscientiously give affirmative answers to these questions, I bid you welcome. Welcome to a field of labor where one works not for the food which perisheth, but for the food which abideth unto eternal life. Welcome to a field of labor where one works not for the food which perisheth, but for the food which abideth unto eternal life. Welcome to a field of labor where the worker grows wealthy in the things of the Spirit—deeper devotional experiences, multiform opportunities of human service, and sacred memories! These closing words of a long and busy ministry are still an inspiration and an ideal, I have fought the good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith."
"The High Calling! What redooded man could turn down its challenge?"

BIG INCREASE IN FUNDS FOR EDUCATION
BIG INCREASE IN FUNDS FOR EDUCATION
North Carolina Makes Forward Move In Providing Better Advantages for Improvement Of All Citizens
RACE RELATIONS IMPROVING
W. W. Anthony Aery
Hampton, Va. The present North
Carolina program of Negro education
and health. State and local—provides
for spending $4,000,000 in the near
future. Some fifteen years ago North
Carolina was spending about $4,000,
000 annually for the education of
all its citizens—white and colored.
STATE APPROPRIATIONS
That public sentiment is in favor of
giving more adequate support to Negro
schools—elementary, secondary,
normal, technical, and collegiate—is
shown by the General Assembly
appropriations, which amount to $335,
000 and which include the following
important items:
Buildings and equipment, three State normal schools, $506,000; maintenance, three State normal schools (annual), $75,000; division of Negro education (annual), $15,000; teacher-training and private schools (annual), $15,000; teacher-training and summer schools (estimated, annual), $20,000; high schools and vocational education (estimated), $20,000; building and improvement schools and technical college, Greensboro, N.C., $115,000; maintenance, A, and T college (annual), $30,000; Building reformatory for Negro boys, $25,000; maintenance of reformatory (annual), $10,000; sanitarium for Negro tubercular patients, $100,000. Total State appropriations, $935,000.
EVIDENCES OF PROGRESS
Some other statistics are interesting and the evidence of the real progress that North Carolina is making in the direction of civil citizens. For the year 1919-20 North Carolina spent for the salaries of Negro teachers the sum of $1,159,000; for the year 1920-21, $1,500,000; a gain of $350,000, or 35 per cent in a year. During the summer of 1921 over 3,000 Negro teachers (that is, 90 per cent) in North Carolina attended summer schools. These better-trained teachers will receive additional pay. This means that Negro in North Carolina will receive during the present school year more than $1,500,000. It is also encouraging to know that large school-building program is now well under way. For country schools there will be spent $279,000, and for urban schools there will be spent $1,246,850, or a total of $1,523,250 for country and urban Negro schools.
HAMPTON MADE FINE EXHIBIT
HAMPTON MADE FINE EXHIBIT
Visitors to Poultry Show at Virginia State Fair Showed Keen Interest in "Lesson In Egg Production."
Hampton, Va.—Among the many impressive exhibits at the Virginia State Fair was one which excited keen interest among visitors to the poultry Hampton Institute's Lesson in Egg Production. The exhibit was made up principally of Plymouth Rock hens which represented the good-laying and the poor-laying types. Trays of china eggs gave the results of Hampton's accurate trap-nest records. Three Hampton agricultural students showed poultry keepers how to pick out the good layers without using the expensive trap-nest. The exhibit included a poultry house with all the essentials of an ideal house. This house had the virtue to be inexpensive. It was of the open-front type. It had sanitary roosts and nests.
Free bulletins on "Poultry Raising in the South" by F. S. Gannmack of the Hampton Institute staff, were distributed. Through Virginia, Negro farm demonstration agents about 100 "Hampton" poultry houses have been built by Negro farmers during the past year and over 80 old houses have been remodeled to approximate the "Hampton" poultry house.

Columbia Laundry Has Modern Equipment and Is Owned and Operated Wholly By Colored People
Among the growing colored enterprises in the city established several months ago by Dr. R. J. Brown, Messers. Charles H. Robinson, and J. D. Archer, is the Columbia Laundry, at 1526 Church street. These men put up all, the capital for the establishment of the business and are employing an entire colored operating force of forty people over the direction and management of Mr. Robinson, who is a thoroughly experienced laundryman.
The plant is modernly equipped for the handling of the most delicate as well as ordinary articles and includes mangles, collar machines, handkerchief machines etc. A finely equipped drying room adds facility to the efficient handling of the laundry's product. The plant, occupies floor of 6000 square feet and is at present cramped. The machinery as new machinery is being constantly to meet the demands of the rapidly growing business which is a credit to the city and the owners and operators.
SPECIAL SERVICES AT FIRST BAPTIST
Chaplain Fenninger, of Hampton, Will Address Inter-Racial Meeting Sunday Night. "Black Billy Sunday" Speaks All Next Week
The Reverend Laurence Fenninger, chaplain of Hampton Institute, will deliver a special address at the regular evening service at the First Baptist church this Sunday night. The occasion will be known as Men's Night and hundreds of men are expected to be present in the special seats reserved on the upper floor. But the attendance will not limited to men. Large numbers of women are also expected and there will be a delegation of white friends present numbering over a hundred. The choir, under Prof. Clyde D. Cartre's direction, will sing by request Coloridere Taylor's "Deep River" and Dett's "Listen to the Lambs". This so that the Hampton delegation may return on an early book's "Black Billy Sunday"
Evangelist C. P. Dixon, popularly known as "Black Billy Sunday", will arrive in the city Monday morning and preach at his church every night next week, the closing week of the rally. While these services are for the purpose of stimulating interest in theology, Billy Dixon says he is going to open a week war on hell. It is expected that a church will hear him every night, rain or shine, and that numbers of conversions will be recorded.
Dr. Charles S. Morris has spoken to large and enthusiastic audiences all time and timely messages on "God's Plan for AGes" have been unusually helpful.
Beautiful Incidents of Humanity Versus Prejudice
Several weeks ago the writer saw a strong colored man lending an aged white lady, Mrs. De Bona, wife of the late John De Bonn, across the automobile and vehicle crowded Main street, while she stood faltering like a child trying to reach the opposite side. The old Italian lady shook his hand and thanked him, and showed her sincere appreciation for the human consideration and kindness shown her. On last Wednesday on Plume street, where thousands of base ball fans witnessed the returns at the Ledger-Dispatch office of the first between the Yankees and Giants, a white newsboy, suspending his business of selling papers, led a colored blind man through the howling congested crowd. These two incidents show that the milk of human consideration and kindness flow in every breast. White or black, old or young and goes to show why the whites and blacks of Norfolk get along better than any place where the two races live in such large numbers, than any place in the whole country. Where this spirit lives, the Ku Klux Klan is bound to die.
Business Men Here
Among the out-of-town business men who were seen in Norfolk during the past week were Mr. W. S. Young, cashier of the Peoples Bank of Kenbridge, Va., which has completed plans for opening in Petersburg; Mr. L. A. Foster, business manager of the State Normal School at Petersburg, and Mr. A. P. Bentley, secretary of the Supreme Life and Casualty Company of Columbus, Q.

DR.G.E.HAYNES ON U. S. LABOR CONFERENCE
Race Given Representation By President On Important Committee to Solve Labor Difficulties of the Nation
GETS IMPORTANT ASSIGNMENT
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Washington, D. C.—Dr. George E. Haynes, former Director of Economics in the Department of Labor, accepted an invitation from President Harding to be a member of the Labor Conference, called by the President to work out a solution for the unemployment difficulties.
The telegram from President Harding extending the invitation, stated:
"I am desirous of including your name in the conference on unemployment which opened in Washington on September 26th. The object of the conference is to inquire into the volume and distribution of unemployment, to advise upon emergency measures that can be properly taken by employers and local authorities and civic bodies and to consider such measures as would tend to give impulse to the recovery of business and commerce to normal.
"I would be glad if I could have your acceptance.
WARREN G. HARDING."
Dr. Haynes accepted by telegram and took seat in the conference. He was assigned special work with the "Committee on Community Civic and Emergency Measures." Col. Arthur Woods, of New York, is chairman of this committee.
BOYS' CLUBS WIN CASH PRIZES
BOYS' CLUBS WIN CASH PRIZES
Under Direction of Farm Demonstration Agents, Farm Club Boys Make Excellent Showing At the State Fair
Richmond, Va. - Despite drought and discouragement, members of the Negro boys' club, scattered widely through Virginia, again presented at the State Fair excellent exhibits of the peanuts, peas, peas, and other farm crops. The boys have worked under the direction of the Negro farm demonstration agents.
The exhibit demonstrated what the county agents are doing to educate Negro boys in methods of good farming and to set high standards for farm products. It included the photograph of a Virginia club boy who last year produced 98 bushels of corn on a single acre; also the photograph of a scene at a summer camp, where from three counties came together, by buggers on horseback, in an automobile and up to take part in an educational outing which had been prepared by District Agent J. L. Charity at Rock Castle, Powhatan County.
The exhibit was arranged by the Negro district agents-J. J. E. Bagley, J. L. Charity, and G, E. Oliver. The State Fair Association offered $400 in cash prizes for the boys' exhibits of corn.

The Negroes of the Country Dissatisfied With Pres. Harding's Administration
Editor JOURNAL AND GUIDE,
Sir:—According to a story current, an old colored man made application at one of the public buildings in Washington city a short time ago for something to eat, and claimed that he had a right to come there for victuals.
The head of the department was called in, who asked the colored man, "Upon what right do you base your claim?" "Why?" said the sable representative of the 15th Amendment, "I understand" dar is provisions in de constitution for de culled fokes and I haven't had de first damn crumb."
When we recall the beautiful words and rosette premises made by President Harding to the various Negro delegations that journeyed from different parts of the country to Marion last fall, to stand in front of his front porch, and now compare his apparent indifference and inactivity, in regard to the fulfillment of his declarations, we cannot help agreeing somewhat with the colored brother in his opinion expressed above.
It is with an ever recurring regret, nevertheless we are compelled to confess it, that we have somehow always had our misgivings as to the full recognition of the political and civil rights of the Negro, whenever a Republican president was in the Whitehouse, hailing from the Buckeye State, ever since Rutherford B. Hayes, in 1876, surrendered and abandoned the Southern Negro to his political foes in order to break the "Solid South" and build up a "life white" Republican party in this part of the political vineyard.
The tentative efforts to do so, however, under the different administrations of these Ohio presidents from time to time, have proved abortive, and are likely to continue to be so, just as long as the principles of humanity and simple justice are abandoned for the sake of a doubtful and unrighteous policy by the managers of the National Republican organization.
In the meantime, the Negroes in the Northern States, where they intrum-mulated, are allowed to vote, have it in their power, when the power presents itself, to show the present National administration its serious error and teach it a bitter but wholesome lesson.
No other race group in this country, numerically as strong as the Negro is, would tolerate for one moment with impunity, such ungrateful treatment as has been, thus far, handed out to him by a Republican administration.
Have the Negroes the manhood and courage to resent it?
We shall wait and see.

Education Needed
Editor JOURNAL AND GUIDE.
Sirz.—A novice can see the very present need for community schooling in civics, political issues and the duties, responsibilities, and opportunities of the voter and citizen. With all due respect to the men who availeth themselves to be the knights-erant to avenge our cause and obtain retribution, in the separation, segregation and isolation of 670,000 people, civically, and politically—respecting their position as dividers of the paltry leaves of "tentative" nominees for membership in the Patromage-holders Clan, I do believe their endeavors of greater avail in educating the peoples, colored, of our several communities along lines of intelligent civic expression. It has been conceded, that with few exceptions, the leaders of the "upper room" Republican party wield considerable influence in racial circles. Too, again with few exceptions, these are men and women with some knowledge and experience as citizens and voters. We need them in our community forums, and night school classes, that we, the MASSES, may become acquainted in better degree with the things that make up Americanism, and the qualities of representative government—of democracy, I mean the Lincoln-brand of government of the people, by the people, and for the people.
Mr. Editor, I should really like to see this suggestion further considered. Our men of affairs, the factors in our communities, have a grand, glorious opportunity for usefulness to the race and country, in aiding in the bringing forth and rise of groups of young men and women of independent thought, who will act out of regard for right, and righteousness in government, and for the good of the commonwealth, rather than actuated by clandestine motives, or desire for agrandizement of self or of race. Here, I firmly believe, is a way for the salvation of the Race and of democracy in Virginia. To study and apply ourselves to the tasks and responsibilities of citizenship, which despite the ele- (Continued on page four)

NEGROES ARE PLANNING TO DESERT G. O.P.
Dissatisfaction With Attitude Of President, Harding's Administration Extends to Northern and Western States
WILL SHOW IN NEXT ELECTIONS
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Washington, D. C. — Assurance without performance is as "a sounding brass and a tinkling cymbal." The Associated Negro Press has no mission in the present political turmoil, as it affects Colored Americans, except to give the news, as it happens, and to demand justice for all the people.
The release announcing information concerning the attitude of the Republican Administration and the party itself, in the affairs of Colored Americans, as given out by The Associated Negro Press exclusively, has caused wide comment. The information was authentic, without question, it is for the people to state whether they believe, "get and still," or whether they propose to continue battling for the things they believe to be right and just.
So far as the long telescope of the A. N. P. Service is able to glean, there is to be no let up in the onward march of independent action, and fusion advantage.
Clydeman Joseph R. Pollard, of the Texas Earn State Committee of Virginia, issued a call for a national meeting in Washington, November 1. In the city are open new York thousands of Negroes are openly declaring that they will support Matoi Hylah for election. Recently, in Rush Memorial church, a Hylah meeting was addressed by the Mayor, William Pickens, James Weldon Johnson, Eugene Kinkle Jones and others.
In Ohio, where municipal elections will be held in every city next month, there is a remarkable spirit of independence. It has rightly alarmed leaders of the State, from whence the president Harding, Cleveland, Cincinnati, olodo, Columbus, Dayton and other communities have formed independent cities, and are taking the story of their beliefs to the people. Some may say that this is local, but it most assuredly demonstrates the feeling of the colored citizens of the State that the publican organization of the nation, such, has failed colored Americans. In Chicago there is the same feeling. Colored people are in a quandary, however, as to which way is best travel. The fusionist organization, between the Democrats, and anti-Thorpion Republicans, is to be made permanent. Thousands of colored people would feel kindly to this move between it not for The Chicago Tribune interests, owned by the McCormick that have conducted a campaign of propaganda. This situation is extremely embarrassing to Senator McCormick, who in his term of office has sought to gain favor with colored voters."
In Indiana, where Senator Harry New comes up for re-election next year, with former Senator Albert J. Beveridge as an opponent, there is discouragement and disgust. No longer a newspaper than the Indianapolis Law, always friendly to both Senators New and Watson, carried a recent editorial which the two Indiana Senators and the Indianaapolis Congressman, Merrill Moody, were taken to task for their seeming lack of interest in political co-operation for colored citizens.
In Missouri, the "Show Me" State, there is a revival of that amazing spirit of independence that alarmed the Republican party to such an exertion, fall that all of the heavy artillery, of the campaign organization was ordered to the "heavy artillery" of the organization was ordered to the Missouri front line trenches with unyielding armaments to "Hold the fort," Kansas City in Missouri, for years has had a more remarkable local Democratic organization, getting results that no political observer can laugh at.
James A. Ross, of Buffalo, New York, has issued a call for a meeting of the National Committee of Colored Democrats, stating in the call, that because of the failure of the Republic Administration to live up to the promise promises, the time is now opportune for Colored Americans throughout the United States into an independent movement. Ross is one of the most prominently known colored Democrats in the country, was prominently mentioned for Register of the Treasury under the Wilson Administration.
STEAMER ROWAN
GOES DOWN
Members of American Syncopepated Orchestra on Board Reported Safe
Dublin—The Laird Line steamer, Rowan, was sunk early Sunday morning off the Southwest coast. The vessel collided with the American steamer West Camak, and sent out a wireless appeal for help. The Clan Malcolm rushed to the scene and in a heavy fog struck the Rowan, which quickly sank. For a time it was believed that many members of the southern Syncopepated Orchestra, a New Zealand musicalian, which has been touring Europe, and the British Isles, were lost. It was found later that all of the members were safe. One musician, however, died after being taken from the water.

Hampton Defeats St. Paul, 25 to 2
By Charles H. Williams
Hampton, Va.-The Hampton Institute football eleven defeated the St. Paul Normal and Industrial School, 25 to 2, in the first game of the season, played on Hampton's gridiron on Saturday, October 8th.
The two points made by the visitors came at the beginning of the game, when the Hampton eleven made three successive fumbles, the last in an attempt to kick from behind the goal line.
The big game of the season at Hampton will be played with Howard University on November 12th.

HOWARD WINS INITIAL GAME
Washington, D. C.—Howard inaugurated the 1921 football season Friday, October 17th, at Lynchburg, Va., with an easy 19-0 victory over the Virginia Theological Seminary and College team.
The past two weeks intensive training has been partially fruitful in that Coach Morrison went to Lynchburg not only hopeful but confident that the "Blue and White" would achieve its first victory over the team of Coach "Buck" Hunt, a former Howard star. The recent cold snap seemed to have invigorated the men to such an extent that a stronger held was taken on the positions and "teamwork" improved. The last former Howard man to report was Nurse, of last year's squad, who enters the Medical School.
VIRGINIA NORMAL WINS FIRST GAME OF SEASON
Petersburg, Va.-Virginia State Normal defeated St. Augustine of North Carolina in their first game of the season by a score of 7 to 0. Seven first downs were made by the Normal, while the visitors made only two. There were no special features, only straight football being played. The men who played best for the visitors were Brown and Holland, at full, and for the home team, Ross, D. Brown and Spratley played well

A. Hines. * We are sorry to learn of the sudden illness of Mrs. Charlotte Hawkins Brown, who was to be with us on Monday night Oct. 10th. Edenton was much disappointed in not having her with us. * Dr. W. M. Capheart, is sick at his home on E. Gale Street. Others on the sick list are Mrs. Hattie Beasley, Mrs. Beryl Hoggard, Hobie Banks and Mrs. Kate Dick. * The Elite Art, Literary and Social Club began its bi-monthly meetings Friday Oct. 7, 1921, by meeting at the home of Mrs. B. V. Halsey E. Preemason Street. The weather had suddenly changed to a delicious October crispiness, and when we journeyed to the very beautiful and cheerful home of Mrs. Halsey's, the home was beautiful lighted and shaded with amber tinted globes that gave to the beautiful surroundings a twilight scene. After the regular routine of business we were then served to a very delicious repast consisting of fruit punch and assorted cakes, with cream and fruit fillings. Numerous stitches were exchanged and
after briefly discussing many important topics of the day we adjourned to meet at the home of Mrs. J. T. Holley on E. Freemason Street. Very elaborate plans were made for the entertainment of Madam Charlotte Hawkins Brown, who will give a public lecture through our Club, and who being president of the State Federation of Women's Clubs, will be greatly received by all. We welcome her.

Va. Normal Opens with Record Attendance
Petersburg, Va., September:—The Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute opened its thirty-ninth session last week with an attendance which taxes the capacity of the Institute.

Training School
The Training School is now complete and is occupied by the Elementary School and the Junior High School. The seniors in the Normal School do their teaching in the Training School, under the direction of expert supervisors. This arrangement centralizes the work of the department and gives it a unity which otherwise would be impossible.
The school was formerly opened on Thursday evening at which time an assembly of all teachers and students was held. Dr. John M. Gandy delivered the opening address in which he extended to new students, new teachers, old students, and old teachers, a welcome into the life, interests, and purposes of the Institute. After reviewing briefly the work of the Institute, past and present, he said, "I am hopeful that in the near future we shall be able to accommodate at least twelve hundred boarding students. Then we shall be able to do our share in meeting the educational needs of the Negroes of Virginia."
A number of new teachers have been added to the faculty. Some of the schools represented by the new faculty members are; the University of Chicago, Boston University, University, of Pittsburgh, Howard University, Fisk University, University of Rhode Island, Talladega College Atlanta University, Kansas Agricultural College, and a number of other schools.
Norfolk Artist Wins Added Fame
Lovers of music will be pleased to note that Virginia will soon be favored by the visit of an Artist of no mean ability. Madam Louetta Chatman, the charming Negro Coloratura Soprano, is commencing her Fall Tour of this country with an appearance at the High School Auditorium, East Oronge, N. J., on November 3, 1921. This promises to be the stellar musical event of the season. Madam Chatman's wonderful voice with its almost unbelievable range, the depth of feeling with which she renders her numbers, her pleasing interpretation, as well as her years of honest study, have lifted her to their fore-ranks of American Artists.
in the
treatments leading musical publication, in speak-
training of Mme. Chatman, said, "Mme.
Louetta Chatman has a substantial
eleven soprano voice, and sang with consid-
erable brilliancy, Caro Nome, by
Verdi, and "Song of the Robin," by
grest we Casc." Other papers and other criti-
tics have also given her similar criti-

(Continued from Page Four.)
the gentlemen named by the JOURNAL AND GUIDE or any other colored man in Virginia to achieve anything political owing to the elimination of the Negro by Constitutional amendments and political legardomain thrust upon the people by the Democratic Party aided and abetted by the very Lily Whites for whom_we are now advised to vote, by the JOURNAL AND GUIDE and the Vigil.
Few of the men named by the JOURNAL AND GUIDE have been actually engaged in politics for years and years, but there are those among them who have made places for themselves of prominence among their fellowmen of education, property and character equals in every respect, of the candidates on the Lily White ticket.
And I happen to know that the honor of making personal sacrifices by being nominated for office to which none will be elected came to most of the men and to Mrs. Walker absolutely unsought, and I know that it would have been the pleasure of the five hundred and ninety-eight delegates that attended the mass convention in Richmond on Labor Day to have nominated the distinguished Editor of the JOURNAL AND GUIDE, for any office he might have desired to stand for, had he not already made known through the public press and by telegram that his business engagements and his doubt as to the wisdom of nominating a full ticket prevented such a result.
I wish to emphasize the fact that it will do no good in this discussion to attempt to belittle the men and woman who have been placed upon the ticket and who are leading this movement, nor is it just and fair, to impugn their motives. It has always been difficult for me to understand how a high-minded clear-hearted citizen can attribute base motives to others without concrete proof.
I never can subscribe to the Editor's plea for expediency when a vital principal is involved. I quote from the Republican platform this doctrine on which we base our hope for the suffrage of the colored electorate, "No mere expediency however urgent the call for its exercise should be permitted to destroy the fundamental principles of the party."
Finally, I will not take the time to comment upon the Editor's suggestion that we divide our vote between the Democratic Party and the Lily White so-called Republican Party, for it is as impossible for a self-respecting Negro in Virginia to be a Democrat in principle, as it is for a Lily White ex-Democrat to be a Republican in this State except for office or revenue. The JOURNAL AND GUIDE closes its editorial with the following question: We should like to ask him (J. Thomas Newsome) if he is earnestly and sincerely in favor of the race voting as a unit in the future? My answer is that, I am sincerely and unqualifiedly in favor of the Negro voting the Republican ticket as a unit this year and next year and continually as long as there is hope that the party of Lincoln, Douglass and Grant may to its ancient traditions and landmark. And if it turns out that the party has
finally departed from its fundamental principles then it is my sincere desire and earnest prayer to God that the Negro may still maintain an organization as a unit and proclaim to all the world the doctrine of political and civil equality of all men before the law irrespective of race, creed, color or condition.
Very truly,
J. THOMAS NEWSOME.

FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH
Sunday was our busy day at the First Baptist church. The Sunday school is obrilliant under the Supt. Mr. O. Ross always begins the day beautifully and casts shadows of inspirations along the pathway of each service. The Second Sunday in each month is Communion Sunday. Last Sunday morning the Holy Spirit visitation was noticeable and felt as we commemorated the death and suffering of our Risen Savior. The pastor, Rev. J. C. Diamond, is a preacher of no mean ability and whose peers are rare in Tidewater. At three o'clock Mrs. Rev. Jones, of Newport News delivered a wonderful address to the Missionary Society of the church. Her subject was, "A Mind to Work." She told in a very unique way what could be accomplished if we only had a mind to work. Echoes from various societies from this and other churches were heard and received.
The B. Y. P. U. is struggling to raise its subscribed amount on the heating plant. It extends welcome to all who will attend.

TRINITY A. M. E. CHURCH
Sunday was a gala day at Trinity.
Arriving at the church Sunday we found it decorated with artistic funeness. A shimmer of golden sunlight augmented by bunting that hung gracefully pendant, was suggestive of all that he term "Home Coming" implies.
Dr. Notitngham selected an appropriate text for the occasion, which was cheering in a high degree.
The program Sunday afternoon called forth unqualified admiration.
The A. C. E. League, under the strick and precise supervision of Miss F. B. Reed and other men and women who are living beautiful lives of sanctified service, stands second to none. They are doing real service.
Sunday night, the pastor preached a sermon that was singularly appropriate.
Several prominent persons were present at both services. Among them were Mr. and Mrs. Trynham, of Richmond, Va., and Mrs. Smith, of Newport News, a cousin of Mrs. Nottingham, and wife of Dr. Smith. Mrs. Smith spoke encouragingly of the pastor and church. The church will begin anniversary services next week. The public is cordially invited to attend these services.
CENTRAL BAPTIST CHURCH
The services at Central Sunday were the best we have witnessed for many a Sunday. The Sunday school opened the features of the day with splendid promising effect. The morning sermon by the pastor, Rev. C. H. D. Griffin, D. D., was soul stirring and perfect in instruction. The subject being, "Bring back the King." At three o'clock an excellent program was rendered by the Blind Concert Company of Norfolk. Each person was greatly helped by the sunny spirit and cheerful attitude of the blind.

REV. HENDERSON PLEASES VAST AUDIENCE
Bank Street Baptist Church Fortunate In Having Young Student in Absence of Pastor
By Chas. M. Tucker
In the absence of the pastor, the Rev. Mr. C. M. Long, the Rev. Mr. Joseph R. Henderson, the young minister, who is now a student of Union University, delivered a very able sermon to the congregation of the Bank Street Baptist church last Sunday morning. Taking his text from the 14th chapter of Romans and 13th verse, the Rev. Mr. Henderson took for his subject, "Difference of Opinions, as to the Larger Standard, No Basis for Judgment." "Let us not judge one another any more, but judge ye this rather, that no man put a stumbling block in his brother's way, or an occasion of falling."
"If there were no Bible," the minister said, "there would be no true and perfect standard. Each man would have his own standard and could proceed to commit his desired crimes or misdemeanors upon society, judging it, society, by his own standard." As the church should see the larger standard, it could be of even more usefulness to the young people if it would give up many of its old ideas and standards. The Rev. Mr. Henderson strongly felt that the young people could be of more benefit to the functions of the church if the church endowed to supplant other things in the places of those which the church condemned. Feeling that athletics could serve as a possible outlet for stimulative interest in the church, the speaker said, "There are men who have made a scientific study and have spent a large part of their lives in the study of athletics and they recommend certain forms of athletics for the development of the body. In order that one may truly serve the Lord, he must have a healthy body and a sound mind.
Some church people, it was said, still hold to the idea that musical instruments take the church backward. The Jews even reprimand Jesus and His disciples for gathering and eating, after preparation, corn on Sunday. But as their difference of opinion was no basis for judgment, Jesus told them that they only saw the external things of life when the internal received little or no attention. Just as Paul tried to outline in his letter to the Romans that they spent too much time passing judgment on the petty things of life by forever holdnig to the old laws, customs and ceremonies.
The Rev. Mr. Henderson's sermon was ostensibly a plea to the church to give up many of the old idens and the difference of opinions which hold its progress back. These things are keeping the church still and make for little service of the young people.
In closing, the student-minister enumerated ignorance of God's work, ignorance of what is best for our fellowman and stupidity in reasoning as the three things the church must overcome. "God knows our constitutions; He knows our weaknesses and He knows our evil propensities and our evil prelativities"; therefore, "Let us not judge one another any more; but judge ye this rather, that no man put a stumbling block in his brother's way, or an occasion of falling." The speaker, Mr. Henderson, has the pastorate of a church in Waverly, Va.
GRACE P. E. CHURCH
Notwithstanding the coolness of the weather last Sunday the children of the church school came out in large numbers. The lesson leaflets were to hand and everybody took part heartily in the instructions. Offering was very good. Come and join with us. At 11 o'clock the services of the church started promptly. The choir leading the procession, singing was fine. The rector gave an inspiring report of the proceedings of the conference held in St. Philips' church, Richmond.

The Sunday school and the B. Y. P. U. are in healthy condition. Rev. Paulks, a member of First Calvary Baptist church, Norfolk, preached here Sunday morning. At night, Rev. George Harrington, now pastoring in Roanoke, Va., preached a soul-serving serum. Spiritual fervor ran high and there was one addition to the church. This service was conducted under the auspices of the Missionary Circle, Mrs. Ada Holden, president. The collection lifted amounted to $23,600. This club is planning to raise $1,000,000 by Thanksgiving Day. On that day it is planned to serve a big dinner on the church grounds. The church is nearing completion and when finished will be valued at about $10,000. Rev. J. E. Dean, pastor; S. G. Holmes, church clerk.
SECOND CALVARY BAPTIST
CHURCH
Last week was a glorious time with us. The Lord blessed us with one hundred and two conversions and eighty additions to the church. Dr. King and our pastor led in the great Christian march for God, carrying the message of the Cross to the lost sheep. A number came forward at the invitation to turn from their ways and accept 'Christ as their Saviour. Dr. Knig preached with power each night. Never was there more interest felt in the saving of souls; not only are the Christians stirred, but the sinners have begun to think over their lost condition and are seeking God's love to know. Dr. King left on Saturday for Richmond, where he will start a revival in his church. We pray that God may strengthen him and that great good may be accomplished in saving souls for Christ.
At 6:30, the spirit of the Lord was manifested in the prayer service. At 9:30, the superintendent, Bro. C. C. Madison, called the Sunday school to order. At 11:30, the pastor preached a powerful sermon from the subject, "What Is God To You?" After the sermon ten persons came forward to unite with us. Immediately after this service fifteen persons were baptized. At 3 p. m., a large crowd assembled to testify for the Master in the covenant meeting, which continued until 4 p. m. The pastor then extended the right hand of fellowship to fifty-seven. At 5:45, the B. Y. P. U. held their exercises. The Bible reading was led by Rev. James Bowser. At 7 p. m., Bro. Geo. Wilson led the prayer service. At 8 p. m., Dr. Brown of the Queen Street Baptist church, Hampton, Va., preached. Several sinners came forward and four were happily converted.

METROPOLITAN A. M. E. ZION
CHURCI
The services on last Sabbath in our church were largely attended and intensely interesting. The Sunday school at 9:30 was lively and inspiring throughout the session. We missed you last Sunday. We hope you will be present and on time this Sunday. At the morning preaching hour the
NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE
pastor, Rev. N. D. King, delivered a strong logical Gospel message to the edification of the large audience that was present at this service. There was one accession to the church at this service.
At 2 p. m., the funeral services of Mr. Frank Raney were held in the church and were largely attended and very impressive. The pastor, Rev. N. D. King, officited, assisted by Revs. Nimmo and A. F. Gussom. The interment took place in Calvary Cemetery with Masonic honors.
At the evening preaching hour the pastor delivered another very excellent sermon, to the delight of those present. The spiritual fervor ran high and there was much rejoicing.
The Tom Thumb Wedding held in the church on Monday night was a decided success. Strangers and friends are always welcome to all of our services.
ST. JOHN'S A. M. E. CHURCH
The intermediate C. E. Society had an interesting meeting last Sunday. Miss Alice Harris led, the topic being "How to Improve Our C. E. Prayer Meeting." Miss Harris opened up the topic in her unique way, to the delight of all present.
FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH
Like the trumpeter whose charm notes bestir and call men to arms, Rev. Bowling stood last Sunday morning proclaiming with emphasis the call of the Christian army for greater usefulness. The pastor preached from the subject, "Nekhemiah's Call for United Effort." Text, Neh. 2.17. In part the pastor said: a spiritual significance should attach to all that we attempt touching God's work. During the service four persons answered the call for greater service by connecting with the church. The Sunday school and B. Y. P. U. were largely attended.
At the evening service the pastor delivered with deep religious fervor one of the sweetest sermons that we have ever heard, his subject being "Magnifying Christ." Text, Phil. 1:20. There were two accessions during this service. Evangelist C. P. Dixon, better known as the black Billy Sunday, will preach every night next week. Don't miss services this Sunday morning and evening. Everybody welcome.
FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH
BOLLING BROOK
"The good works of a man, though he be dead, shall live forever." So it is with the First Baptist church. The good seed that was sown in Bolling Brook by Rev. J. H. Henley, founder of this church, is now beginning to grow and prosper.
Too much credit cannot be given to Rev. McQuarters, of Texas, who conducted the most successful revival ever known in Bolling Brook, and our beloved pastor, Rev. J. C. Williams, who secured his service. We wish also to thank hte members and friends of the sister Baptist church in Logan Park, who so faithfully came earlier in the history of Bolling to lend us a helping hand. NevBrook has such success been witnessed as that during the two weeks of revival. The last night of the services broke all records in this place. The church was packed from pulpit to door. Rev. Lane, of Baltimore, Md., spoke on "The Judgment," after a splendid sermon had been delivered by Rev. McQuarter. Prayer was then offered by Rev. Harrington, of Roanoke, Va. The services resulted in the saving of thirteen souls.
Rev. McQuarters preached his farewell sermon to the church Iskist Sunday at the morning hour, after which fourteen were baptized in the chilly waters of Tanners Creek. The pastor preached at the evening hour using for his subject, "Stand Fast." Twenty-one new members were given the right hand of fellowship and partook of the Lord's Supper with us at this service.
REPORT OF Y.W.C. A. CONFERENCE
The Conference of Y. W. C. A. girls and workers which was held at Kittrell College was a most instructive and inspiring meeting. The Norfolk delegation consisting of five girls, with Miss Frankie Turner and Mrs. J. R. Dungee joined the delegations from Richmond and Lynchburg anhate the trip together. The campus of Kittrell College, Kittrell, N. C., was beautiful and an ideal setting for this meeting which was held July 19-29, inclusive.
The schedule each day kept the girls and workers busy doing many worth while things. There were several squads, each having a leader and being under self-government. Devotions each day were led by Miss Lettie Brown. National Secretary for Girls Work of the South Atlantic Field. Round table talks were conducted by Miss McGeorge, National Secretary for City Work.
Rev. Vernon S. Johns, a professor in Virginia Seminary and College and pastor of Court Street Baptist church, Lynchburg, taught the Bible class for Workers and Secretaries. Each evening a different squad entertained with a program. The World's Fellowship Pageant was presented by the Girl Reserves. The last evening was spent around the camp fires and on Saturday a three-mile hike concluded the program.

Model City Lodge No. 306, I. B. P. O. E. of W., of Truxun, Va., has inaugurated a membership campaign. It has been granted a special ninety-days dispensation and the prospects are bright for a large increase in members in the near future.
Official announcement has been made by Grand Secretary, Geo. E. Bates of the Grand Lodge, I. B. P. O. E. of W., that charters for Past Exalted Rulers' Councils will be ready for delivery within the next thirty days. One will be sent to any seven or more Past Exalted Rulers upon application accompanied by the institution fee of $25.00. This fee covers the cost of rituals, instruction books and other necessary paraphanalia for setting up the Council. The writer is anxious to hear from the Past Exalted Rulers of Norfolk, Portsmouth and Berkley and vicinity with a view of calling a meeting at some early date for the purpose of arranging for the institution of a council here as soon as practicable. Virginia ranks first with subordinate lodges; lets put her in the front rank with the councils.
The Anterted Herd of Suffolk has had a grand and glorious time this week. They dedicated and opened their beautiful new home. The program that was carried out was of a very high order and in keeping with the dignity of the occasion. A full report of the unfair will appear in this column next week.
Eureka Temple No. 1, I. B. P. O. E. of W., has changed its meeting nights from the first and third Thursday nights of each month to the first and third Friday nights, and its place of meeting from the auditorium of Booker T. Washington High School to the Longshoremen's Hall, corner of Princess Anne avenue and Wide street.

HERBERT'S MINSTRELS
The Attucks Theatre has a one hundred per cent amusement organization this week in Herbert's Greater Minstrels. Among the stars are such sterling fun-makers as Billie Haskins, Strawberry Russell, the famous "Daddy White," interlocutor, Kid Holmes, Billy Briggs, Les Carter and Harry Anderson. The setting for the "first part" was as fine a "sit" as one would want to see. Mr. Herbert has spared no expense. The rendering of the "Wang Wang Blues" by Kid Holmes nearly stopped the show. Strawberry Russell put over "Home Again Blues" and the Olio was the best ever. In fact, it is a show within itself.
What are the features? The one-armed cornetist, Theo, Carpenter, and the trick cyclist, The Great Adams. Either one would be a feature in any show. The street parade made a dainty appearance in their natty new uniforms. The band being a first class jazz outfit, and they pleased. The elaborate stageing of the last "half" "The King of the Sandwich Isle," carried us back to the days of "Williams and Walker," in Dahoney. It was good.
Herberts Minstrels are at the Attucks for the balance of the week. Next week, beginning October 17th, the Smarter Set, with Salem and Tutt.
BIG DOUBLE CIRCUS HAS VAST PROGRAM
Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey To Present Scores of Entirely New Features
The announcement that the far-famed Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Combined Shows are to exhibit at Norfolk Monday, October 17, has aroused no end of interest. It would seem as though practically all the youngsters and grown-ups in this section were planning to attend. Twice each day for almost two months New York's great Madison Square Garden was packed with those who thronged to see this biggest program in circus history. They saw scores of the jungle's most ferocious beasts, subjugated to such a degree, that these beautiful animals leaped

to and rode on the backs of elephants and horses, jumped through hoops of fire, opened their mouths that their men and women trainers might lay their heads and hands inside them, or leaped from pedestal to pedestal like trained dogs. And these marvelous dumb actors are all on tour with the great double circus. The four immense steel arenas in which they perform are set up in the mammoth main tent. There is no additional charge—everything is on the one program. And by "everything" is meant not only the wild animal displays, but the entire circus. More than 600 men and women, embracing the world's foremost areneic stars, take part. There are almost 100 clowns. Aside from the ferocious beasts, the program includes thirty trained elephants. Troupe of camels perform in the rings. There are five companies of trained seals, many dogs, bears, monkeys, pigs and pigeons. Fully seventy trained horses and Shelands are presented. It is the biggest circus program the world has ever seen, given under the largest tent and, in connection, is the famous combined Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey menagerie.
Chicago, Ill.-Charles S. Gilpin, the famous Negro actor and the Province-town Players, appearing in "The Emperor Jones," were entertained at the Press Club last Thursday night, several members of other companies now playing in Chicago were present.
The LaFayette Players, who have been on tour are in the city rehearing. They expect to begin their winter season in the next few days.
