Home building in the city has taken new impetus with the advent of Spring. The colored suburban sections show appreciable evidence of the ever increasing spirit among the colored people to live in better homes and own them, several fine residences in Huntersville and Lindenwood. Farsighted business men who appreciate the colored man's home owning instincts are opening up new areas in the outlying districts to accommodate the ever increasing population, realizing that the percentage of theagemen we afford to buy in the more highly developed sections is small. Lincoln Park and Oakwood Terrace are two beautiful suburban sections recently opened up by Messrs. Bartlett and Sullivan where nice large home sites may be had at very nominal cost. Expected in a few years to rival Lindenwood and Huntsville as highly developed colored suburbs. The property is high and dry, situted on the car line and has every facility which gives it promise of becomino- a thickly populated area with many beautiful homes in a comparatively few years. The property is large as large as the average city lot, the idea being to afford plenty of room for lawn, gardens, etc. BULLOCK NOW IN FOREIGN LAND Left Canada Following Threat of Ku Klux Klan to Bring Him Back To United States. Hamilton, Ontario—Matthew Bullock who was the center of an international row between the Dominion government and North Carolina when the latter State sought to extradite him for taking part in a race riot at Norlina has left this city for parts unknown. Rev. J. D. Howell, who took an active part in Bullock's defense, says that he is now in a foreign country. Following this government, the North Carolina authorities the Ku Klux Klan issued a statement saying that Bullock would be brought back through the instrumentality of that "invisible government." It is thought that Bullock sought refuge on foreign shores to prevent being kidnapped by the Klan.

FARMING REQUIRES MORE KNOWLEDGE Special to Norfolk Journal and Guide Washington, D.C.—Many evidences that State colleges for Negroes and similar institutions on private foundation in the South are being put on a more substantial basis and that ther is an increased interest in there is an increased interest in home economics were found by Dr. A. C. True, director, States Relations Service, United States Department of Agriculture, during a recent visit to a number of such institutions in North Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee and Virginia. The number of students at these institutions has greatly increased in recent years and they have better trained faculties and enlarged equipment. This is due in large part to the fact that as a result of the inroads of the cotton boll weevil and other economic causes, agriculture in the South is becoming more diversified and there are more intelligence and education opportunities in the operator. The number of Nuggets covering farms is increasing and many of them are seeking better training in agriculture for their children. INCREASED DEMAND FOR TEACHERS It was also observed that institutions receiving the Smith-Hughes for the training of teachers are being more being by the aid. There is an increased demand for teachers and extension workers in agriculture and home economics and these institutions are being stimulated to meet this demand. BETTER RURAL SCHOOLS There are as yet comparatively few high schools in the States visited. There is however a general movement to improve the rural schools for them, with State aid and private endowment, and as a result examples of schools with good houses of two or three rooms, adequate equipment and competent teachers are now quite numerous. A re-creation of the subject shows that under the stimulus from a single private source, 1,255 houses for such schools have been erected in the Southern States with public and private funds at a cost of about $4,000,000. One of these houses was visited and the work and equipment were found to be excellent. NEW UP-TOWN PENDER STORE NEW UP-TOWN PENDER STORE Country's Most Progressive Groceryman Adds Another Link To Chain of Stores. Another D. P. store, and one of the best yet established in Norfolk has been opened at 941 Church street. While this store bears the regular D. P. yellow front, it does not need this feature to distinguish it, as it may be broadly identified as a Pender store by its general appearance. Mr. David Pender the originator and owner of the D. P. Stores all over Norfolk and adjacent towns, has given a successful business career to studying the requirements of the public in the matter of wholesome food, and everything needed for the table may be found in these stores and at a large store are right. Mr. Pender is a large employer of labor, and among his employees are many colored men and women. In fact, colored labor has a monopoly in some departments of Mr. Pender's business. He is liberal to his employees and is held in high esteem by all of them. No man in this section of the country, has done more than Mr. Pender to bring the cost of living within the reach of the working man. Mr. Pender is manager of the new store a 301 retail store. Mr. Sawyer is a congenial and affable gentleman, and it is a pleasure to do business with him. Mr. J. W. Thompson, secretary-manager of the State grand lodge, Independent Order of Good Samaritans and Daughters of Samara, with a bachmond, a. was in the city several years ago. Thompson reports that his organization is enjoying a successful growth. 40c. Floorlac is a Sherwin-Williams water proof varnish stain.

Killed Man In Defense of Home; Jury Seeks Pardon For Smith York, S. C.—For the first time in the history of South Carolina, a white jury today gave a Negro the benefit of the "unwritten" law, which is universally recognized in the South whenever the sanctity of a white man's home is invaded. Frank Smith who shot and killed Jay Jack- WINS SUCCESS IN ALEXANDRIA COURTS Alfred H. Collins, Former Norfolk Lawyer, Acquits Clients In Difficult Cases. Friends of Mr. Alfred H. Collins in this city, where he lived for many years, and practiced law for a while when first admitted to the bar, will be interested in reading the following from the Washington County genealogy of recent success attained by Mr. Collins in Alexandria, Va., where he is now practicing. For the first time in fifteen years a colored lawyer has appeared before the Corporation Court of this city. A H. Collins defended Robert Sikelton and Gwainmor White, two youths charged with assault and robbery of Ephram Brown on March 18th. The third boy in the case_ was Westley Thompson who had a law lawyer defending him. The cases came up for separate trials April 6th. The jury in White's case was out for an hour and a half could come to court. Upon consideration of twenty-five minutes they rendered a verdict of larceny with imprisonment for one year. Later, a similar verdict was rendered in the cases of Skelton and Thompson. From general comment Thompson should have been acquitted as Brown asserted that he could not identify the lawyer Collins now has Thompson's case. The boys are out on bail, having ninety days to appeal to a higher court. Lawyer Collins needs the commendation of the race. He was called to the bar and commended by the judge of the Court. He has said that a Negro can appear before a higher tribunal than the police court. He recently defended Charles Sparrow, a fifteen year old boy, charged with rape. Sparrow was acquitted. Mr. Collins has been in Alexandria for two years, formerly practicing in Norfolk, Va. He is active in local Civic affairs and is progressive and far sighted.

But every day and night the spirit of Leslie Carter's wife haunted him, and finally driven to desperation he has returned here and surrendered to the authorities to be tried for his life. He claims that his wife was with him constantly; before him, behind him and at his side. Every minute the horror of his crime was dinned in his ears.

Church at Winchester When Conference Returned Rev. J.-H. Hawkins. MUCH DISSENSION AMONG MEMBERS Winchester. Va.—Determined they did not want Rev. J. H. Hawkins to serve them any longer as pastor, the trustees of St. Paul A. M. E. church, of this city, locked the church doors, and in addition nailed and boarded them up when the minister was returned to the pastorate by Bishop Johnson at the close of the annual conference held in Roanoke. During the past year there has been much dissension in the congregation and Rev. Hawkins has become unpopular with trustees, stewards and members of the church. The pastor had deposed certain officials of the church, among them Mrs. Lacy Murray and had installed others in their places. Mrs. Parker declined to turn over the funds, and this added to the complications. Steps are being taken to restore harmony in the congregation.

Europe is Coming Along Democrats Oppose Five Million Dollar Loan To Liberia Solution Of Race Problems Lies In Economic Advancement, Declares Dr. Woodson. "The future of the American Negro is not bound up in any political party, but in what the Negro does for himself," declared Dr. Carter G. Woodson of Washington, D. C., author and historian, taking before a large audience on the subject: "Democracy and the man far down," at St. John's A. M. Z. Church on Sunday afternoon last. Outlining the different forms of government under which different peoples of the world have lived and citing causes which brought in existence these various modes of government, Dr. Woodson, declared that the Negro is not so much concerned as to what form government may take as he is concerned that every element in that government share equally its dispensation. It is a mistake, he said, to assume a democracy came to America in 1776, when the war between the states that democracy was born in this country. Turning his attention to the accomplishments the race must make for itself Dr. Woodson, stressed the importance of economic efficiency. Intellectual efficiency alone is not enough said the speaker, but economic efficiency is essential to be obtained by any people who may hope to build for success. Declaring his love for the soil of Virginia, his birth place, and his devotion to the United States of America, Dr. Woodson said that he stood reed to defend the nation against foreign aggression and treatment for the Negro in America would not be obtained by a successful overthrow of this government by any foreign nation, but its assurance lies in the accomplishments of the race itself. The address was a literary treat in American and *Negro* History. The speaker urged his hearers to study the history of their race. It is replete with chronicles of brilliant achievements by Negroes of centuries ago, said Dr. Woodson. The Woodson is the editor of the Journal of Negro History and has written several creditable books on the history of the race. His appearance at St. John's was under the auspices of the Book Lovers Literary Club. Lawyer J. Eugene Diggs the ex-president of the club, in 1910, was the first to attribute to the efforts of Dr. Woodson. The Lawyer said that the whole Negro race is greatly indebted to Dr. Woodson for his scientific achievements in historical research in behalf of the race. Prof. E. P. Southwell provided the writing and splendid colors rendered by Miss Blanche Smith and Mrs. Johnsle Churchill added much to the occasion. "SAULOFTARSUS" SPLENDID PLAY Local Cast Under Direction Of T. W. Stancell Adds New Laurels To Fine Record. Under the auspices of the Home Missionary Society of Bank Street Baptist Church on Monday night, May 19, Mr. Thos. W. Stancell and cast presented their play "Soul of Tarsus" before a large audience. The play was well acted and reflected the study and effort the players have devoted to their parts in order to present to the public a worth while show. "Soul of Tarsus", is a religious play, a dramatization of the Acts of the Apostles as found in the sixteenth, twenty-fifth and twenty-sixth chapters of Book of Acts. The whipping and imprisoning of Paul and Silas, the shaking of the foundation of the jail and opening of its doors by a great earthquake, the mad fear of the jailer, and Paul's crying in a loud voice "Do thyself no harm we are all here," are scenes that were beautifully dramatized and toothed amused. Paul appearing before Agrippa and declaring his life from childhood, Festimy's pleading for the life of Paul and Agrippa's inclination to become a Christian were scenes that attired religious emotions throughout the audience. Every member of the cast had their respective parts under perfect control and appeared at their best through each scene. Mr. Thomas W. Stancell appeared in the role of Saul with Mr. John Henley as Agrippa, Mr. Walter Williams as Nero; Mr. Eugene West, Feodus, Mr. Chas, Smith as Silas, Matisse, Poppy as Thursday and several others who made up a well chosen cast. The play is run in four acts and ench act is set off with appropriate scenery. An orchestra of twelve pieces rendered music for the occasion. PRICE FIVE CENTS s Oppose ion Dollar to Liberia Georgia Congressman Issues Statement Expressing Unalterable Opposition to Proposed Loan. Minority Report Filed. GOES BACK ON WAR TIME OBLIGATION (Special Journal to Under) Washington, D. C.—Although the House ways and means committee has favorably reported the Fordney resolution authorizing a loan of $5,000,000 to the republic of Liberia, the measure is going to meet with strentuous opposition on the floor when it commences. Representative Chas. R. Crisp and seven Democratic members of the ways and means committee have filed a minority report against the bill. These Democratic members declare that the authority for the measure is withheld with the assistance of hostilities with Germany, when credit provisions for countries associated with the allies were included in the Liberty Loan act. Ostensibly that is the reason for the opposition of the Democrats. Those who support it with the assistance of that party, however, claim that it is force of habit that prompts the gentlemen, most of them from the Southern States, to oppose the granting of the loan to the little Negro African republic. -- MR. CRISP'S STATEMENT "I am unalterably opposed to this loan, and shall leave nothing undone and can do to defeat it. I had it defeated and I would have been before the committee. I do not believe the president of the United States or any other official, acting beyond the authority vested in him, can make any agreement with foreign nations for a loan of money that will create any moral or legal obligation that will prevent me from rutily and authorize the loan. "Liberia is a little negro republic in Africa with a population of 60,000 semi-civilized -negresses-and- two million uncivilized ones. They have neither an army or a navy, and in the prosecution of the war, they did not attack the enemy, and in other supplies, and in no way contributed to the prosecution of the war. It is absurd to contend that they did; therefore any commitment under the second Liberty loan act by the last administration was ultravires and not binding upon this government. This commitment was with the original commitment with which they were never complied with by Liberia. The Liberty loan act authorizing credits expressly stated that the authority to make these loans ceased with the conclusion of the war. With our people burdened with taxes, we are defensible that they should be taxed to the millions of dollars to this negro republic. I think the best interest of the people of America will be so served by our formally notifying the world that we have ceased to be "Lady Bountiful" and that they could not come to our treasury for money for taxes, because the money to be wrong from our citizens payment of taxes. I shall leave payment undone that I can do to prevent the passage of this bill." W. L. Epps & Company In Charge of South Oakwood Property Announcement is made that Messrs. W. L. Epps and Company are now special agents for "Rosemont", the beautiful homeites properties at South Park, where this is the issue of the Journal and Guide in a descriptive announcement of the property. Rosemont was placed on the market two or three years ago by Dr. Chas. S. Morris, who was the pioneer in opening up desirable bururban real estate, and who have seen this beautiful and splendidly located property, and observe the prices at which the lots are selling declare that there is more philanthropy than business in Dr. Morris's plan, as everybody wonders how such prices can be built on people at such prices on so reasonable terms. Messrs. Epps & Company are also agents for the "Minter" home, a house that can be built on the most economical plan. They are in position to buy the property and it will pay any one interested to consult them.

LESSON FOR MAY 7 ISAIAH& REMEDY FOR A WORLD AT STRIFE LESSON TEXT Jan. 2-3-4: 11-12 MIC: 4:1:6; Phil: 4:1; Gal: 5:22; 12:2 TOPIC: YUP TOPIC to Be a Pesco- maker. JUNIOR TOPIC:—Swords Beaten · Into Pleawhare. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC - How to Make Peace and Keep It. - YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC - Conditions of Permanent Peace. Isaiah does not set forth merely an ideal for a world at strife, but foretells what shall actually take place in the latter days, which shall put an end to all earth's strife. In these Scripture texts he reveals the fact that Jesus Christ shall come and establish His kingdom and remove from men's hearts the cause for strife. 1. The Kingdom Established (Isa. 2:2-4). By "mountain" in the Scriptures is meant "kingdom" (Dan. 2:35; Rev. 13:1; 17:9-11). 2. Its position (v. 2). It shall be in a place of supremacy. It stands at the head of all kingdoms, in fact the kingdoms of this world shall then become the kingdom of Christ (Rev. 11:15). 2. The restored nation the teacher of the Gentiles (v. 3). God called Israel that He might make His name known among other nations. Now after many centuries of apostasy and rebellion the chosen nation comes into its own. God's favor will be so outstanding as to gain the attention of the whole world and cause the people to come up to Jerusalem to hear the law of God. 3. The divine judge (v. 4). The problems of the nations of the world shall be adjudicated by One who is all wise, and He shall rebuke many people. Because of this rebuke they shall convert their implements of war into implements of husbandry and they shall learn war no more. 11. The King (Jas. 11.1:5). 1. His lineage (v. 1). He is of royal stock, of the house of David. From the fact that the "branch" grows out of David's roots, it is shown that Messiah shall come when the fortunes of the nation are very low. 2. His qualifications (vy. 2-3a). The Holy Spirit shall rest upon Him in his completeness, qualifying Him for His work. "Wisdom and understanding refer mainly to the clearness of intellectual and moral insight; counsel and might to the qualities which give sound practical direction and vigor to follow and carry through the decisions of practical wisdom; while the knowledge and the fear of the Lord define relation by its two parts of acquaintance: he found 'on love and perseveral love' which promises to obedience." He shall have quick understanding in the fear of the Lord and His delight shall be to do God's will. "This has fulfillment in Jesus Christ in whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge (Col. 2:3). 3. The character of His reign (v. 8b. 5). (1) "Not judge after the sight of his eyes." His knowledge is perfect; his judgment pieces through the problems, even seeing the motive which lies back of the act. (2) "Not reprove after the hearing of the ear." The word "reprove" means "decide." His decisions, therefore, will be on the basis of fact, not on hearsey. He cannot be deceived nor imposed upon. He knows all things, even from the beginning. (3) "With righteousness shall judge the poor." He will meet out impartial justice to them. Many times now the poor suffer because the wealthy are able to bribe the judge, but when Christ shall reign as King the poor shall get justice. The poor shall not suffer in justice because he is poor nor escape justice because he is poor nor escape justice because he equates with the good. (4) "Reprove" here doubts means "decide." In fact the meek shall inherit the earth (Matt. 5:8). (5) "Shall amite the earth with the rod of his mouth." By the "earth" is meant here the wicked inhabitants. When Messiah comes to reign there will be great wickedness in the earth (see Psalm 2:9:12; Luke 18:3). (6) He shall be grilled with righteousness and faithfulness. (v. 5). He is absolutely righteous and will faithfully carry out all His words. III. Description of Christ's Reign (vv. 6-9). There will prevail universal peace between men and animals. In this description each animal is coupled with that upon which it naturally preys Daily Thought It is cunning for those that are farthest from God to boast themselves most of their being near to the church. — Henry. Every Man. The brave man carves out his fortune, and every man is the son of his own works. — Carvano. On Things Above Set your affections on things above, not on things of this earth.—Colossians 3:2. CARROLLTON. VA. (Miss Mattie V. Jordan) Campbells A. M. E. Sunday school met with Mt. Zion A. M. E.

Dear Mrs. Dixon: If you will kindly answer the following questions, I certainly will appreciate seeing them in your column next week. 1. What is the proper age for a girl to start or any place which should speak first? 2. When a girl meets a boy on the street or any place which should speak first? 3. If a boy is going with a girl and cares a great deal for her but is jealous and does not wish her to have nothing to sue to other boys; is he the right sort of fellow for a nice girl? 4. What is a nice outdoor game for a girl living in the country? —LONESOME ONE, 1. The proper age is eight (18). 2. The girl should speak first. 3. Jealousness does either importance or lack of faith. A friendship with an extremely jealous person rarely brings happiness. A JOURNAL AND GUIDE BOOSTER THE CHILDREN'S WEEKLY This young lady posed especially for the Journal and Guide.

He even held the baby on wash day for Henry loved his mother and he scarcely ever found time for play. He often hoped to see the time when she was not hurrying through one thing to begin another. Henry was very like other boys of his age, although his skin was black and his hair curly, he liked to shoot marbles, run races and above all eat candy. Worst of all horrors the hall season was on and here was the yard to clean and a pile of wood to cut for his mother, being clean-room. He it off and how his hands ached for a few good throws. He was considered the best pitcher in the neighborhood team and the boys had hinted that his place would be taken by Ben if he couldn't succeed. He was ever a mild boy, so tempted. 4. Tennis is a nice outdoor game, you will like it. DO SOMETHING NICE FOR HIM Please tell me what to do to win my husband? He is kind (in a way) and seems unselfish but hardly ever spends time at home. We have three children and he goes a long way to see them comfortable. We are not pals any more. He likes to be well dressed and does not complain because he cannot now afford to be. I do not have pretty things either as I once did but I try to afford sufficient am content with his company just the same. We rarely go out together. You are lucky to have such a IYAW. He needs a new outfit and so do you. I know a dear little woman with two lovely children (dolled to the minute) and she and daddy barely presentable. Men are different, they cannot be satisfied on Johnnie's new suit. This little woman saw her husband slippery all over two much sacrifice. She ordered him a suit from a well known tailor using the old suit for measuring and skimped until it was paid for.

"Come on and let's play just one game, you can finish when we get through. You know we play the Dundabars Saturday and we want to win, come on you can clean the old yurt later. I'll help." "All right I'll play just one game and then I thought, downing the rake he crept through a hole in the fence and paired the game. "Henre-e-e," called his mother, "bring me some wood."

Then our hero came to himself, he had deserted the best mother in the world and dreaded to go home. He was not an invincible at all, just a tired little boy who had disobeyed. There stood a forlorn little fellow who was the stream of fans as they hurried from the arena alike, happy in the present and forgetful of the past and future. Hey!

Published by Harcourt, Brace and Co, New York, Price $1.75, with postage $1.85. A book of American Negro Poetry! How many of. us have been longing for this, and now that we.can snuggle the smooth, attractive volume in our hnds, how satisfying the feeling is! ‘We wait a little to open the book, s0 pleasant is it just to realize its exis- tence. When we do open it the inside jus- itifies our anticipaton. Here are many [favorites, poems that have appeared in current magazines, in slim volumes of verse, The earliest Negro ‘writers are noted in the preface and the book begins with Paul Lawrence Dunbar. When we have finished, have read through to the end, we turn back t Dunbar. Unquestionably he has a: yet no rival. Mr. Johnson compre: him to Burns, an apt comparison ‘Thore is the same poignant appeal ir the two pocts, through the. speech o peasant people, to the very simpl things of life.

Braithwaite, however, is not at his best.» His ly. ries are poorly represented, whereas no Américain! poet has written lovliex simple lyric gongs. I understand that Mr. Braithwaite does not care for-his earlier poetry, but an artist is the las person wisely, to judge his own work Among the poeias of oppression are Leslie Piackney Hill's, Joseph F.

He tells us at the start tha there is but one measure of a people’ greatness, the amount and standar of the literature and art they hav produced. “And he .then goes on 1 say that “the Negro is the Creator « the only things artistic that have ye sprung from American soil and bee universally acknowledged as distin tive American products.” ‘These creations are summed up ut der four heads: The Uncle Remu stories, the “spirituals,” the cakewal manner of presentation.
