Hello Bill! Meet Me at the ELKS' OUTING, BAILEY PARK, Thurs. Night, Aug. 3 Murderer of Two Prohibition Officers Shot In Flight "LAWLESSNESS IN TITUSTOWN MUST GO," SAY CITIZENS Community Sentiment Strong For Law Enforcement; Denounce The Murder Of Two Officers As Unfortunate. WILL NOT KNOWINGLY HARBOR ANY CRIMINAL MURDERER CAPTURED Jim Chamberb, blockader and murderer fell before the gun fire of a posse Friday, 5:20 a.m. n. near Mason's Creek, Norfolk County. The searchers had been scouring the County for him he killed two prohibition officers in Titustown. A colored farmer living on the Frankenburg farm at whose house the fugitive appeared on two separate occasions the day pervious directed the officers. With bullets, Chambers lies near death at the Service Hospital U. S. Army Base. Titustown will be cleaned up. That is the edict that has gone forth from the law nibiding and orderly element of the people of that settlement. Whatever constituted authority goes in to make this edict effective will receive the hearty co-operation of this better element. Filling up of two prohibition officers Satsuma night on a blocker in Titustown has served to besil these citizens to take direct measures to rid their community of lawlessness that has annoyed them since the days of the war. A citizens meeting was called for last Wednesday night to arouse the entire neighborhood to the cause. The officers down on disorder in Titustown and to devise the best means of going about it. STRONG SENTIMENT FOR ORDER A canvass of sentiment in the community by the Journal and Guide revened a healthy desire for law enforcement and an expose of crime. In every instance every good citizen of the town said, "I am with the law, dept. of justice, and I am committed in our community Saturday night and no criminal will be harbored in this section or anywhere if I have knowledge of it." The phrase "cleaned up," is used inaptly in reference to the situation in Titustown. One not familiar with the section might conclude that the settlement approaches the city from being the case. The majority of the citizens of the community are hard working and law abiding. They are property owners, owning their homes and doing business. There are several progressive business enterprises in the settlement buying thousands of dollars worth of goods annually from the city, and schooling their children. Many beautiful homes decorate the settlement besides one of two fine churches. CRIME WAVE NEW. Less than ten years ago Tituwstown could be policed by one officer and he wouldn't have occasion to make an arrest in a month. The lawlessness that has so bestirred the community recently is a heritage of the war. North Tituwstown is the section that affords most of the crime, and this a section that builds the enemy. Brueckner labored calmly when construction work was at its height on the government piers at the Army Base. HOUSES ALL SHANTIES The houses are little one room stuco shanties, built kew to the ground and about ten feet apart. There are between two and three hundred of these shacks, most of them now dislodged. After the armistice and construction work at the Army Base ceased these shacks were turned over to Mr. A. T. Stroud, on whose property they were built, and rented by him as family residences. Many of the men who migrated to the section as government shanties and rented for their women folk. The lawlessness is confined almost exclusively to this new element. Much indignation prevails among the old citizens over the deplorable crime of Saturday night and the response that the government is bringing on their town. One property owner expressed himself this way: "I have lived in Titustown for a number of years and have paid taxes here and I do not propose to have the value of my home depreciated by people who have no respect for me and hope for an early arrest and punishment of Jim Chambers." CHAMBERS NEWCOMER Jim Chambers occupied one of those shanties with his wife and came to Titustown as a gang forman for SPECIAL NOTICE TO MME. C. J. WALKER AGENTS EVERYWHERE The Sixth Annual Convention of Madam C. J. Walker Agents, which will meet at Baltimore, Md., August 16th to 18th, inclusive, promises to be the largest and best Convention thus far held by this large group of business women. Important legislation, scientific lectures and demonstrations are on the program and the Baltimore Union of Mme. C. J. Walker Agents has left nothing undone in its determination to royally entertain the delegates and friends. Every Walker Agent is urged to attend and to communicate with Mrs. Alice C. Burnett, National Representative of the Company, who has established headquarters at 1606 Druid Hill Avenue; Baltimore, Md., or get in touch with her at that address immediately upon arrival in Baltimore. Substitutes Revolver For Rolling Pln; Husband In Hospital Burlington, N. C.-Floyd Miles, a colored farmer living near this city started out to discipline his wife, by giving her what he had done. He didn't add more writing. When Floyd got into action Mrs. Miles didn't take kindly at all to his form of chastisement and retaliated-substituting a revolver, for the time honored weapon of defense and offense. One bullet lodged in Mr. Miles stomach, penetrated his liver and otherwise damaged him. He was sent to the court for his recovery. The quarrel between the couple started over a minor affair. Porter Bros. It is said that he had not been known to follow any occupation since work ceased on the Army Base piers. He was haunted among the Titustown folks that a stricter enforcement of law by the county authorities would have, avoided the unnecessary slaying of the two officers Saturday night. The posse, in searching over two hundred houses for the slayer, confined their activities almost exclusively to the crime area. Few, if any of the houses of the old citizens were molested. JOHN R. W. PERRY DIES AFTER LONG ILLNESS Was A Member Of Many Fraternal Organizations And Business Enterprises. John R. W. Perry, barber, business and fraternity, man, died at his residence, 418 Lewis street, Monday, July 24th at 6 p. m. He had been ill for five months.

Church is not considering $40,000 as a price for the St. Luke Church property," said Mr. Geo. Banks, chairman of the committee appointed, by that congregation to look into the matter, when asked by the Journal and Guide if his church had reached a conclusion the committee quoted us was $35,000," said Mr. Banks, "and no decision has been reached as yet." There are no new developments in the St. Luke church matter. Rev. L. E. B. Rosser, former pastor, under whose administration the $35,000 church debt was incurred, will be in the city. Sunday to preach to the congregation the gospel book of worship in the Booker T. Washington High School Building. Rev.

Further evidence of the announcement of A. Philip Randolph of his candidacy for secretary of state on the socialist ticket. Mr. Randolph was born in Florida and attended the age of the City of New York when he specialized in political science. In 1920 he was nominated for State Controller on Socialist ticket. This was the first time since reconstitution that he was nominated for a state office on a regular political party's ticket. ONE WHO DESERVES A VAST AMOUNT OF CREDIT She gets her picture in the paper because she is one of the most capable, most thorough and most conscientious primary school teachers in North Carolina. It would be hard to find her equal anywhere. Mrs. Jones is the principal of what is known as the Sawyertown public school for colored children in Elizabeth City. It is her task to wrestle with the educational development of the most handicapped class of colored children in the city, for the cultural influences that surround the colored people of the Southern side of the town are not available to the children, who live on the town's best homes and hotels in the city and they see little of life outside their own squilid environment. But Mrs. Jones is working wonders with these Negro children. She not only knows her pupils and their limitations, but, at her own expense, she has equipped her with the training he has suitable training by acquiring the best pedagogic training for herself. Three summers this woman has done what few white teachers in North Carolina have done; she has spent her summer vacation at Columbia University in New York and has trained in education methods as taught in that great gulfhead-of modern pedagogics. She was to have gone to Columbia again this summer but was persuaded by the 'State Department of Education to give her time and talents to Summer School work. She was to have summer School at Wilson, N. C. Reprinted from *The Independent* (white) Elizabeth City, N. C. MRS. COPPAGE'S FUNERAL VERY IMPRESSIVE The funeral services of Mrs. Littia Nixon Coppage, wife of Mr. John Coppage, one of the old and prominent families of the city, were held in Shiloh Baptist Church, Sunday afternoon, July 23rd, at 8:00 o'clock, in the heart of Norfolk has so stirred the heart of the people with grief and sympathy. Long before the hour for the service every available seat was taken and the people began packing themselves about the place. By the time the funeral procession arrived at the church, the crowd about the door and in the street blocked traffic. Just before the body was taken from the house, the Rev. D. F. White conducted a short service in the church, the services were simple but beautiful, the usual ostentatious array of obitaries, letters, telegraphs, eulogies and lodge ceremonies were absent, giving the service an atmosphere of a real Christian tribute to the life of John Coppage, who has been faithful in all her relationships in life to her Lord. OLD PASTOR PREACHES FUNERAL The newly elected pastor of Shiloh Baptist church, Rev. W. E. Black, was master of ceremonies. After a song by the congregation, the Scripture lesson was read by Dr. D. J. Lee, of Grace Episcopal church, and a giver was offered by Rev. Haily Falkenstein. Dr. Anderson sang a solo. Rev. D. F. White, of the First United. Presbyterian church, made a short address of comfort Rev. J. H. Ashby, the former pastor of Shiloh, delivered the sermon, "Crossing The Bar," was sung by the male quartette of the church in prayer. Rev. Long delivered the hein迪ction. The floral tribute was copious and beautiful. Mrs. P. W. More Dead. Word was received in the city Saturday, the 22nd, inst., of the death of Mrs. P. W. More, wife of the principal of the State Normal School at Elizabeth City, N. C. Mrs. Moore had many friends in Norfolk who were shocked to learn of her death. CONVERTED ON STEAMER While coming over on the boat from Hampton last week, Rev. F. W. Williams encountered a party of young men playing cards. The minister after watching the players for a few minutes, called for prayer in which he joined the service was held to which the card players listened attentively. The service was so effective that one of the players became converted. TIDEWATER S. S. CONVENTION IN 22ND SESSION TIDEWATER S. S.

The .Convention opened Tuesday morning with the president, Prof. J. Hoffman, and the associate vice welcome, coming from Mr. E. A.

Hoff- man, the appropriate words accepted the welcome on behalf of the Convention. SESSION ONE OF THE BEST This session of the Convention was one of the best, from a literary standpoint, of any held in the history of the Convention. Rev. R. H. Bowling appeared on the program Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, for one hour's lecture each day, upon the Bible. Wednesday, he discussed, "First Steps in understanding the Bible." Thursday, he discussed on the subject, "The Social Ideals of the Bible," and on Friday, we listened with interest to the discussion of, "Present Day Uses of the Bible." These lectures were the most intellectual course of Bible study ever brought to our notice. Dr. A. A. Galvin, in expressing the appreciation of the Convention for the work of a teacher, told them wonderful masterpieces of literature and praised God for the gift of such a young man as the Rev. Richard H. Bowling. The introductory sermon to the Convention was prescheduled on Wednesday night by Dr. J. A. Brown, of Hampton. Selecting his text from John 8:32, and the truth shall keep the true free, and using as theme, "A Knowledge of the Truth," Dr. Brown preached a powerful sermon. ADDRESS BY MR. ROBERTSON Thursday afternoon brought to the Convention a very plain and practical lecture upon the subject, "Why The Church?" by Mr. W. Frank Robertson, Superintendent of the Freemason Street Baptist Sunday school. As a great fan of the strong man made by Mr. Robertson for life and service to God and to humanity. By way of response, Dr. C. E. Jones spoke in praise-worthy terms of the plain, practical, yet inspiring words coming from the heart of this, our brother of the white race, saying, "I more than once have wondered how would see things us Mr. Robertson expressed himself, the kingdoms of this world would soon become the Kingdom of our Lord and His Christ. Mrs. M. E. Gordon, representing the Women's State Work, brought greetings to the Convention and then made an appeal for a contribution for the work. She was given a neat sum, for which she expressed her thanks. EDUCATIONAL SERMON BY DR. GALVIN Dr. A. A. Galvin, pastor of First Baptist church, Newport News, preached the Educational Sermon to the Convention. His text will be on Second Tuesday from 16th to 16th and 17th services; subject, "The Bible-Its Place in the Sunday School and How to Teach It." The principal outlines of this discourse were: 1st. Some of the immediate aims of the Bible; 2nd. The Place of the Bible in the Sunday School; 3rd. How to teach the Bible. It was indeed an Educational Sermon. The president of the Convention, Prof. J. S. Lee, brought to the Convention at this time, his annual message, which was indeed a masterpiece. He spoke from the subject, "Stand Up." It was logical, eloquent and inspiring, and was received with great applause. FINAL SERMON The final sermon to the Convention was preached by Rev. J. E. Williams, pastor of the First Baptist church, of Logan Park. Text, Eph. 6.14; "Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness"; theme.

COLORED TROOPS MOVING TO RAIL ROAD CENTERS Two Carloads Entrain In Texas Town For Guard Duty At Southern Pacific Shops; Soldiers In Fine Condition. CARRY COMPLETE FIELD EQUIPMENT Dallas, Texas—Colored Federal troops entrained from San Antonio last Sundny under orders to proceed to the railroad centers for guard duty. Two carloads of these soldiers moved over the International and Great Northern railroad, according to dispatches, enroute to Fort Worth, Texas, to guard the shops of the Texas and Pacific railroad. CARRIED COMPLETE EQUIPMENT The troops passing through Waco, it is said carried complete field equipment. One carload including cots, tents and groceries, was attached to the Texas Special, bound for Dennison. The boys in khaki looked fit, it is said, and were again gallantly obeying the nation's command. Forwarded troops were met by armed towns on previous occasions have encountered unpleasant conditions and the news of these boys doing strike guard in that State bring unsavory reflections to members of their race. SAYS MOTHERS SHIMMY SET BAD EXAMPLE SAYS MOTHERS SHIMMY SET BAD EXAMPLE Correspondent Condemns Dances Halls And Throws More Light On Vice Conditions. Since an exposure of vice conditions up-town was first made by the Journal and Guide this paper has received numerous letters and interviewers, all anxious to throw some light on the vice conditions from a different angle. We correspondent has the city made a big mistake in closing up the "Red light" district, as this only resulted in spreading the "menace" all over town. The writer also thinks that the dance halls and moving picture shows do as much harm as anything else, and condemns the dance halls in the formulas. "These fifty-year old mothers," he says, "who frequent the dance halls and engage in the 'shimmy' dances are equally as bad as the young girls, and they set a mighty bad example for the girls." While the children are at the moving picture shows, says the moving picture mothers, are at the dances learning how to "shimmy." He thinks the mothers ought to leave the "shimmy" dancing for the young folks to do, and the Journal and Guide agrees with him. Band Concerts On High School Grounds The Excelsior Band, under the auspices of the Community Health and Thrift Center, will render a series of concerts on the Booker T. Washington High School grounds on Sunday afternoons, beginning Sunday, July 30th. These concerts promise to be a special feature and a Sunday afternoon, spent enjoying the band music is certain to be profitable to any who may avail themselves of the privilege. MR. JOHN WELLS Mr. John Wells, who for a number of years has made his home in Washington, D. C., died there and the remains were brought to Norfolk for funeral and interment. He was on Tuesday, July 28th. Wells is survived by Mrs. Wells, Missouri Wells, several brothers and sisters, among them being Mr. James Wells of Ave. A. GUBERNATORIAL CONTEST IN S.C. INTERESTSRACE Ex-Gov. Cole Blease, Open And Avowed Enemy, In The Running; Washington Watching Developments In S. Carolina **Washington D.** —The fight that Cole Blaine is making for governorship of South Carolina is being watched by Afro-Americans throughout the country. It is believed that his ultimate objective is the United States Senate and Cole Blease as a Senator is an unpleasant prospect to every member of the race. Success as a politician may be attributed to his exploitation of the race issue. While serving in the office he now seeks, a few years ago, at the governors' conference in Richmond he publicly declared that under certain provocation he'd join a lynching party and help lynch a colored man. While he was a governor, the tenure of his oath and the Constitution of the United States which he pledged to uphold he excused, "To Hell with the Constitution." It was thought at that time that when South Carolina once got rid of Mr. Blaine as governor it would see that he would never return to office. But retirement grates on him and he is making a strong fight to regain the governorship. CONVOCATION OF P. E. CHURCH The Thirtieth Annual Convocation, Diocese of Southern Virginia, Protestant Episcopal Church, will be held at Grace P. E. Church, Cumberland and Kent streets, August 1st to 3rd.

Enclosing all of the topics selected and of vital interest to the work of the church and the precepts involved essential to a Christian community. The parishioners of Grace Church are planning to make the stay of the visitors in the city an added pleasure. Rev. D. F. White of the United Presbyterian church will welcome the Convocation to the city and response will be made by Rev. J. Alvin Russell. Holy Communion will be administered on Tuesday, Bishop A. C.

Hardwick of Georgia, regarding the lynching of Lee, Roberts and James Harvey, twoCOUNTED men, and DEPT of assault, who were lynched on July 1, at Lanes Bridge, Georgia, after they had been granted a respite of 30 days by the Governor.

THIRD GARVEY GATHERING "The third annual International Convention of the Negro Peoples of the World," will meet in New York City August 1, and hold continuous sessions for thirty-one days. There will be delegates present from all parts of the world, as there have been in the two previous conventions. The program embraces a discussion of all of the social, civil and economic problems with which the race has to do, with "better relations within the race" and "fostering of an international race confaternity" as the basis of the whole program, and "the formation of a new civilization and culture for the Negro race" as the ultimate purpose. The Garvey movement has the merit of success, in its way and after a fashion. We have been disposed to allow Mr. Garvey to demonstrate his ability to do what he has undertaken without being a partisan, and with reasonable suspicion of his commercial schemes, most of which have turned out badly, not because they were not possible of success but because the race was not in a position to finance them, and because they rather stood in the way of the agitation and organization necessary to make the commercial schemes possible of success. It takes the wealth of King Solomon's Mines to gather and operate a commercial fleet on the scale projected by Mr. Garvey, but it is possible to get the money when you have first get the necessary organization, and confidence of the membership. The Christian Nations have leagued themselves against the brotherhood of man, with the Negro people as the special objects of their discrimination, overlordship and oppression, and it is the business of the oppressed and exploited to organize to combat their schemes. Mr. Garvey aims to secure such organization and co-operation, and he has so far succeeded as to gain the open hostility of the Christian Nations to him and his organization. We are all, therefore, obligated, as a matter of selfishness if for no other, to give him a fair chance to make good on his whole program. That is the logic of the matter as we see it. LIQUOR LAW ENFORCEMENT Nobody who supported the adoption of the eighteenth amendment to the Constitution, and who fought the liquor power long before its adoption, would now vote to repeal it. They are satisfied that the suppression of the liquor traffic was necessary to the National welfare, and that prohibition has worked for the improvement of the morals of the people and stimulated in a very marked manner their sobriety, industry and saving habits. These good results justify those who labored for the enactment of the amendment. But the enforcement of the amendment by the Federal Government has developed into a usurpation of the police powers of the State and curtailment of personal rights which constitute a real scandal and dole much to prejudice many people against the amendment. It is stoutly maintained by a large part of the citizenship that the enforcement of the liquor laws should have been left to the States, and that enforcement by Federal authority and agents works for usurpation of the police powers of the State and destruction of the personal rights of the citizens. We are not now disposed to discuss that phase of the matter, but we are disposed to insist that if the Federal Government is justified by the Constitution in enforcing the eighteenth amendment, by its agents, it is equally justified in doing the like thing in enforcing the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the Constitution, embracing the civil and political rights of the Afro-American people. The States were allowed to construe these amendments to suit themselves, and it suited them to abridge and deny the civil and political rights of the Afro-American people, as one of the universal rights of the States, a police power, and the Federal Supreme Court has justified them in so doing. Logically the Federal Government has no more authority to invade the police powers of the-States to enforce one amendment than it has to enforce another. How will the Supreme Court reconcile its position in construing enforcement of the eighteenth amendment one way and fourteenth and fifteenth amendments another way? It can't do it, but it will do it. DAMNING US WITH FAINT PRAISE The Norfolk Ledger-Dispatch found it necessary a few days ago to explain that it did not desire to hold the Negro down. We do not refer to this with any desire to argue the question, nor have we any pleasure in discussing it at all, but some of the statements of the Ledger-Dispatch were so significant in their bearing upon the whole question of race relations and government that some comment upon them in these columns is justified and will prove of interest to our large number of readers in this city and elsewhere. As evidence that it is interested in the welfare of the colored people, the Ledger-Dispatch cites that it has bitterly condemned lynch law and has set aside a certain amount of space in its news columns for publication of news of the Negro's "other side." Then the editor says: "But we do not for one moment accept any theory that even points to the advancement of the Negro at the expense of the white. This does not mean at the pecuniary expense of the white, for Virginia's whites have in overwhelming measure paid the cost, the money cost, of educating colored children." Before further quoting the able editor we are constrained to remark that his splendid paper should not take to itself any credit for opposing lynch law. Lynch law is a crime against the State and against civilization. The editor declares that his paper is not opposed to the advancement of the Negro at the "pecuniary" expense of the whites—meaning the expenditure of money for education. Then he has left us in the dark as to what he means. The Negro asks an equitable distribution of the school funds, a fair industrial opportunity, equal justice in the courts, the right to vote when qualified under the state laws. Could he ask for less, or could any fair-minded citizen wish to deny him these things? The Negro does not ask for "social equality," in the sense that the term means socially intermingling with white people; attending white schools, joining white societies and intermarriage with white people. The Virginia Negro is as much opposed to social equality as the Virginia white man is. The editor goes on to state that "Virginia's whites have in overwhelming measure paid the cost * * * * of educating colored children," because: "they realize that the colored population of this state far more nearly represents the best that is in the Negro race than does the colored population of any state in the union; because despite an occasional outbreak, there is a strong bond of tradition and inheritance between the two races in Virginia, and because Virginians have always, without prigishness and self-praise, considered as still binding the obligation to care for and help a people formerly held in bondage by them." To such a premise Virginia Negroes may reasonably take exception, because it is embarrassing to them to be held up in contrast with Negroes in other states and advertised as the "best" when upon the whole we are no better than Negroes in other states, and there is no reasonable ground for such a presumption. The same traditions and interitance that bind Virginia Negroes and Virginia white folks also bind Negroes and white folks in all other former slave states; and the same obligation that rests upon the white people of Virginia to help their former slaves and their descendants to rise to the levels of useful citizenship, rests upon the white people of all the other former slave states to whom the Negroes gave two hundred and fifty years of unrequited toil. So the avowals of "good humored affection" coupled with the expressed opinion that we are the best Negroes in the world, do not remove the harsh and stubborn fact that upon a more political technicality we are denied better opportunities to educate our children. Virginia does not impoverish itself, nor seriously inconvenience itself to educate its Negro children. Go search the records. Negroes comprise one-third of the population of the state. According to the last census the State was spending in excess of $6,000,000 annually for the education of its white children and less than $1,000,000 for the education of its colored children. The ratio was $14.08 per white child to $4.13 per colored child. The per centage was 87 for the whites to 13 for the colored. The Negro's taxes; direct and indirect, pay a large proportion of what he receives for the education of his children. We do not ask for praise; we do not ask for flattery. We want the fundamental things that make for a decent livelihood. We do not want to be denied an educational or an industrial opportunity that will help us and not hinder the other race; and the spreading of doctrines that deny us these things is not consistent with traditional and inherited bonds of affection, nor with simple justice. OUR NEGATIVE POWER The Negro exerts more power in Southern politics than white people do. But it is a negative power. Whenever something is proposed for the good of the country a large portion of the white people of the South arise to inquire if the Negro will also figure in the benefits to be derived from this proposed advance? If so, we would prefer not to advance, they say. It was so in the adoption of the Woman Suffrage amendment to the federal constitution. Rather than enfranchise some black women, they said, we would keep the suffrage from all white women. If there was no Negro there would be no political issues in the South. It is all very unpleasant for the Negro as it subjects the race to humiliating exploitation at the hands of ambitious politicians and their friends. Mr. J. T. Deal represents this district in congress. He is serving his first term, Mr. J. D. Hank is running against Mr. Deal for the Democratic nomination for the next term. They have picked out the Towner-Sterling educational bill, pending in congress, from which to extract an issue. The Negro is the issue. The bill provides federal aid to State schools, provided each state receiving such aid gives each and every child in the state at least twenty-four weeks schooling each year. Mr. Hank favors the bill. Mr. Deal opposes it. Mr. Denl sees in the bill federal control of state education because the state must give each Negro child as well as each white child between the ages of seven and fourteen years, six months schooling in order to qualify to receive federal aid to state schools. The Virginia legislature tore the compulsory education law to pieces last winter because it provided for the compulsory education of Negro as well as white children. The law was so amended that a county or city may exempt itself from its provisions and educate its white children without educating its colored children. Shame upon Virginia! How does Virginia expect to make good Negro citizens? Certainly not by keeping its Negro children in ignorance. The state is not asked to do its duty to its Negro children at the expense of its white children. Political partisans may line up on a misleading issue, but nobody thinks that any intelligent person believes in his heart that what Mr. Deal says he is opposed to would ever happen—in Virginia or elsewhere. Briefs and Spices It is now quite clear that the industrial conflict is full of "con." The man who blows his own horn never has time to talk about the other fellow, s discords. Speaking of age, it's one of the few natural procedures with no strings attached. Washington, D. C., has a girl who can sing audibly under water. Let's call it "gurgling jazz." A man on a vacation will tell you what a wonderful time he's having but he'll always avoid telling you haw many times he's been stung. Then too, the complaining citizen loses sight of the fact that some parts of the road, from city proper to Bailey's Park apparently, was built for aeroplane traffic. This is undoubtedly the first miner strike of a major calibre. The auto fast surplants the horse, In streets and onthe farms, The airship travels on it's course. They, prove that man is ever prone, To unearth hthe least suspected. Still do we wait for greater things, To guide us on our way, And ere our hopes will soon be seen, Our innocent will have a protector, When civilized man wakes from his dream, And accepts, "The Lie-Detector." Judge punishes man by making him sleep two nights in horse's stall— news' item. Any overseas veteran could give him points. Every since a beauty expert said a woman's chief beauty is her hair, we've been trying to substantiate the claim, but beauty parlors hath no charms like bathing beaches. Isn't it wonderful how cowards, sneaks and lilies hide themselves behind Mr. Anonymity and Mr. Alias, and their sort! NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE ONE OF THE BEST Sir: Please let me use this opportunity to tell you that I think "The Journal and Guide" is one of the best journals in the race. The editorial page is quite rigorous prehensive. As an old newspaper plug-with forty years experience, I want you to know that I deeply apologize it and every issue is a real treat. VIRGINIA'S OWN DUTY One of our correspondents complains because the Ledge-Dispatch bases its opposition to the Towner-Sterling bill in part on the fact that it would, if accepted by Virginia, compel the state to provide precisely the same educational facilities for colored children as for white children, the correspondentURNS this objection in expressive hostility toward the Negro, and a desire to "hold him down." That is an unjust and unwarranted charge. Any fair-minded person who is familiar with the policies of this newspaper must admit that it has shown an unfaltering interest in the development of an earnest purpose to contribute to their advancement. This interest and this purpose have been manifested in scores of ways, from bitter condemnation of lynch law to the devotion of a certain main amount of space in our own news columns to the Negro's "other side." But we do not for one moment accept any theory that even points to the advancement of the Negro at the expense of the white. This does not mean at the pecuniary expense of the Negro to be in overwhelming measures paid the cost, the money cost, of educating colored children. They have done this because they realize that the colored population of this state far mags nearly represents the best that is in the Negro population of any state in the union; because, despite an occasional outbreak, there is a strong bond of tradition and inheritance between the two races in Virginia, and because Virginiaians have always, without prejudice, praised the existence of considered as still binding the ligation to care for and help a people formerly held in bondage by them. In short, we have never pretended to believe in social equality, as many Northern people do pretend to have always held the Negro in good-humored affection; whereas the Northern theory supports social equality, though the Northern man generally actively dislikes the Negro individually and collectively. We pretend nothing, but like them and them; the North pretends much, but does not understand and hates them. For all these reasons, we in Virginia have done our best to educate the youth of the colored race. But we have no idea of submitting to the operation of a federal rule which advocates all in precisely the same manner. We are doing as nearly that as possible, and as times goes on we shall do it better and better. But Washington, with its Senators and Congressmen and educational authorities, the North, the Middle West, and West shall be to follow this or that course as laid down in an ingenious and deceptive law. Ye, if the Towner-Sterling bill is passed and Virginia accepts it provisions, that is, precisely what we have entrusted the state's educational system with the its ramifications, to the politics-playing over the federal government. Norfolk Ledger-Dispatch. TWO PASTORS IN SINGING CONTEST Rev, C. P. Madison, pastor of Second Calvary Baptist Church, and Rev, F. W. Williams, pastor of Queen Street Baptist church, staged quite a novel and spiritually entertaining event on last Monday and Tuesday nights, when they appeared against each other in a singing contest. The contest opened Monday night at Queen Street church with selections, by their choir followed with selections by Second Calvary choir all of which were beautifully sung. The congregation presented the pastors with a crowded house each night. Dr. Williams and Dr. Madison came out with their voices well suited to the congregation, so cowering to out sing the other. They入 into the contest with fervor and it is not believed that either cared much about who should win as they seemed to be singing for soul's sake and the congregation did enjoy their prowess. On Tuesday night they were back at this time at Second Calvary and as the greatest hated waved warm, even a larger crowd was out to hear the singers. Both pastors sang several numbers and received the repeated praise of the congregation. As no Judges were appointed and everybody who heard the word "pastor" whole service it is not yet known who carried the honors, but it is generally supposed that it was all winning and no losing. "What rare' we doing with our graduates?" has made a place in our newspaper discussions as important as "Who struck Billy Patterson?" used to be in the white newspapers. The main question is, however, "What are our graduates going to do for themselves—by, with and of?" It is strictly a personal matter with them, as it is with white graduates. There is plenty to do for both sorts, the black and the white, the colored and the colored. PAYS FINE TRIBUTE TO RACE MUSIC Colored Summer School Students Host To White Students In Musical Entertainment. (Special to Journal and Guide) Raleigh, N. C.-Yesterday's issue of the Raleigh News and Observer contained the following very fine report of a musical concert given, Saturday in the city auditorium by the colored teachers in attendance at the Shaw University Summer School for the benefit of the white teacher-student at the college. "No night in the forty-and-digits they have spent in Raleigh brought the students at State College 'Summer school' more-genuine 'delight,' nor for that matter, more enlightening instruction than did the two hours six hundred of them spent at the auditorium Saturday giving ear to many Negro students of Shaw University Summer School sing their own songs. "Last night must stand alone among the varied array of entertainments that has been offered State students this summer. Just even to teach them, teachers grouped in the left side circle was to be enlightened. In frequently have those seats held a crowd dressed in better taste, and that comforted itself more admirably. "But above all things, they sang Sophistication that may come with book learning will never take away that native learning to harmonies the Negro. Last night, with an apprehensive shout they outdid themselves. The program was made up almost entirely of their own music, from that most impressive thing that has been devised in America, the Negro national anthem to old fashioned plantation melodies. "Here and there on the program was a singer who departed from traditional standards in vowel values and sounded the "o" in Jordan river, but for the most part they sang like they are used to hear them sing, and the river was called Jordan river. John Mcleoye has lost none of his cunning in leading a spiritual, nor does he apply modern vocatives. He sings. "But for all that, nobody need think that these simple songs are the height of the Negro's vocal attainment. Along toward the end of a program the audience sat up with a mezzo-soprano who it began to hear such a mezzo-soprano as Dion hears, a voice almost perfect quality, almost perfect in the technicalities of singing. Nell Hunter was singing a group of songs from Negro composers. Trendously when she did it. "This is the numbers of old fashioned songs that almost everybody has heard from the back but rarely heard with the effect given by the massing of voices last night will make the evening stick in the memories of all but the score or so who broke into the latter half of the song too quiet leave-taking. The program, Charles Frazier, musical director of Shaw University Summer School." SUPREME LIFE INS. CO. HAS 1ST ANNIVERSARY SUPREME LIFE INS. CO.

The first anniversary exercises of Blyden Branch, Norfolk Public Library, were held in the B. T. Washington Auditorium, Tuesday, July 18, at 8 p.m. Despite the threatening weather, a fairly good number were in attendance. Mr. C. C. Dogan, chairman of the Blyden Library committee, acted as master of ceremonies. Short addresses were made by Miss Prettlow, Hibrarian of Norfolk Public Library, Hew H. C. Miller, pastor in charge of Bethany Presbyterian church, Norfolk. FINE PROGRAM The story, "A Man Without A Country," was beautifully told by Miss Leona Barbour, Norfolk's brilliant elocutionist. The main address was delivery by Attorney Vernal Hodges, who did justice to the occasion. His speech was full of encouragement and inspiration. The purpose of the day was the work of Blydon Branch Library, was as follows: Registration: There are 1,093 members, of this number, 292 are children, ranging anywhere from 6 to 16 years of age. Circulation: During the year 5,071 books were circulated among the adults; 5,305 were given out to children, making a total of 10,376 books in circulation, adult and child. Readers: 4,768 persons took advantage of the reading matter offered for reading room use, making a grand total of 15,143 books for home use and reading room. There are several instances of whole families reading, from children of six to adults. Many have not used these books, have kept well supplied during the whole year in which the library has been in existence. PURPOSE OF ASSOCIATION The Blyden Library Association, formed for the purpose of stimulating an interest in the library and keeping the public in touch with its work, offered two prizes, one to the high school, another to the grammar grades, for the best paper on, "The Value of the Public Library to the Community." The prize, which was $5.00, was awarded to Miss Katherine Williams, a member of the third year high school, who defended deferred until the fall term, giving a chance to a greater number of contestants. At the close of the exercises, Mrs. Dogan, presented Miss Pretlow, librarian, Norfolk Public Library, with a beautiful bouquet of flowers from her collection.

Letters of regret at not being able to attend the lecture to B. Jenkins and Judge Sargeant, members of the Library Committee, by Prof. D. G. Jacox. O. D. Laborers Deny I. W. W. Influence The O. D. Transportation Company's dock workers who quit the piers two weeks ago when the company announced an reduction in the number of laymen from 0 to 30,857, deny any affiliation or interest of the I. W. W. The men contend that the situation is purely a local one regarding pay and working conditions. The state that the cut is the third that they have sustained in the past six months and on no previous occasion have they made any protest. WORKING CONDITIONS UNSATISEACTORY The men further contend that working conditions on the docks have long been unsatisfactory. They complain of having to load a ship on a ship that is too small to operate on Monday night. The men say they feel that this is an injustice enforced upon them because there is no overtime or Sunday rate of pay different from the regular rate. They claim that a more liberal view could reduce the Sunday loading situation if it appeared to be an emergency. The 160 men who quit work thru dissatisfaction over the conditions are still out, altho the company has recruited men from other sources. Va. Conf. Returns Rev. King To Metropolitan Rev. N. D. King, D. D., pastor of Metropolitan A. M. E Zion church, was returned to his pastorate here for the seventh consecutive year by the Virginia Annual Conference of the A. M. E. Zion Church which convened at Sunbury, N. C., last year. Rev. King has conducted a vigorous pastorate during his stay at the Metropolitan church, succeeding last year in relieving the church of a heavy bonded indebtedness which he found when he came to Norfolk. The growth of the church under his leadership has been marked by every phase of the work. His spiritual and material progress has been the vital concern of Rev. King and his work along these lines has been decidedly profitable to the church. The congregation was glad to welcome Rev. King for at least another year. And it is earnestly hoped by congregation and community that he will be retained here for many more years. It is well to ask God for what we want but it is better to ask for what we need. Do it and go and go it after he has placed it within reach of us. JULY 29, 1922. Sports BACHARACH-GIANTS AND RICHMOND READY Some Fast And Clean Baseball Expected At League Park When Champions Meet.

I often sit and wonder why, My precious husband had to die Was it because I loved him so, God called him from this world below. You suffered much, you mournured not, I watched you day by day. Until at last with a broken heart, I saw you pass away. But when I reach that, better land I will clasp again his outstretched hands Where stickness, sorrow, pain nor death, Can never steal our renewed breath. Roses may wither and grass may die, Olhew may forget you; Dear Raymond but never will I. Your dear wife, IN MEMORIAM.

SECOND CALVARY BAPTIST MODERATORS' CALL To Members Tidewater Peninsular Baptist Association. $1,000.00 BATTLE CRY 125 Union Ave. Asbury Park, N. J. June 16th, 1922. To the Churches and Pastors composing the Tidewater Peninsular Association, Eastern Virginia: Dear Co-workers: The time of our 23rd annual session is fast approaching. We are to meet this year in the old historic Antioch Baptist church, Mathews county, Va., Rev. R. V. James, pastor. Our church that our Association held the first convention and received its first inspiration. She will welcome our return with open arms, and is leaving no stone unturned to make our stay among them pleasant. It is the wish of the Moderator that every church will be largely represen- tation of our donations shall be in keeping with those of the years preceding this. At a meeting of the Executive Board, very recently held, it was decided to set our battle cry for $1,000, which is a very small amount when we consider the great and worthy objects which are before us, and the responsibilities which we have accepted to carry. Financially conditions must be favorable as they have been; certainly but Providence is always favorable to the Province willing to make a sacrifice for the advancement of the Kingdom of God, and the education of an ignorant people. In this work our Association has wrought well, and the individual is likewise, and right here I wish to thank our owners and friends for the support you have given me as your standard bearer. This will probably be my last experience with the State at this time it will be convenient for me to do the field work CHURCH DIRECTORY GIRST BAPTIST CHURCH—Bute street, near Sunderland street, Sunday school, 9:39 a.m. 12:19 a.m. and 7:15 p.m. m.

LIFE OF CHRIST "The Life of Christ," by the Rev. E. H. Hamilton, was presented with a faithfulness to detail and a wealth of information concerning his childhood youth, circumstances of his birth, His Mission, life on earth and ministry that held the closest attention of the audience. GENERAL LECTURES Besides the curriculum subjects, general lectures on subjects of moral and religious interest are delivered, Archdeacon Russell, lectured twice. Thursday night on his African trip, giving an entertaining and instructive trip to Africa, in which he spoke of the splendid progress made in religion, education, social and economic development The topic of the second lecture, Friday night, "Some Portents' Confronting the Church," was a discussion of present day problems, their causes and remenants. The three main problems of the Church are the decline of Religion in the Home," "Lack of Young Men Offering For The Ministry," "Increasing Disregard for Law such as I have done in previous years.

BRUGGS Instructor of Theology and the English Bible, Virginia Seminary and College, Lynchburg, Va. THE SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON Sunday, July 30th. **GOLDEN TEXT**—We know that to them work together, work together for good. *Romans 8:12* 1. The Prophecy of the Return from Exile.—Jere. 29:10. "Behind the dim unknown, Standeth God within the shadow, keeping watch over his own,"—Lowell. Jeremiah prophesied that the exile would last seventy years, and the seventy is to be regarded, of course as a round number. From the fall of Jerusalem in 586 B. C. to the return in 538 B. C. was worty-eight years, but exactly twenty-eight between the destruction of the temple and its restoration in 510 B. C. was forty-eight hovah, I will visit you, and perform my good B. C. was worty-eight years, but exactly seventy years intervened between the destruc- tion of the building and its restoration in 510 B. C. was forty-eight hovah, I will visit you, I will visit you, I will visit you, word toward you, you causing you to return to this place. "So it is ever with the Divine word. However appearances may be to the contrary, and however long the delay, the laws of God is immutable, the invisible." Jeremiah 29:14 says, "And I will turn; again your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places whither I have driven you, saith Jehovah; and I will bring you unto the place where you should be you to be carried away captive." 2. God Moves the Spirit of Cyrus. Ezra 1:1-4. That the word of Jehovah by the mouth of Jirehiam might be accomplished, Jehovah stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, etc. In what sense did Jehovah stir up the spirit of Cyrus? Dr. Maclaren answers: "The historian diggs deeper to find the true cause. Cyrus was God's instrument, and the statesman's insight was the result of God's mission. He moved men, when they move themselves. It was not only in the history of the chosen people that God's purpose is wrought out by more or less conscious and willing instruments. The principle laid down by the writer of the Book of Ezra is that purpose is wrought out by true philosophy of history" must recognize as underlying all other as caused causes and forces the one uncaused Cause, of whose purposes kings and politicians are the executants, even while they freely act according to their own judgments, and to their uncaused consciousness of him. It concerns our true hopefulness, in the contemplation of the bewildering maze and often heart-breaking tragedy of mundane affairs, to hold fast by the conviction that God's unseen hand moves the pieces on the board and causes complications. Would that all politicize recognized the fact as clearly as this historian did." Nebuchadnezzar and Cyrus were strangers to the promises, bowing in worship to the gods of heathendom; yet, Jehovah says, "Thou art my servant, Nebuchadnezzar, and thou art my battle axe, Cyrus. They were instruments of Almighty God. "We cannot think a gracious though. We cannot feel a good desire. Till thou who call'd a world from naught. The power in our hearts inspire." 3. The Prophecy of the Return from Exile Fulllled—Extra 1:5-11. "God sees the result from the beginning, even as at the first the eye of the artist beholds the finished stone of the sculptor, marble; and all the affinities which marble are but the hammer-strokes of the sculptor, each of which removes some imperfection or brings some imperfection to view."—Wilhelm M. Taylor. The return was voluntary—whoaover, there is among you, etc., vs. 3; the heads of fathers' houses of Judah and Benjamin, and the priests and Levites, even all whose spirit God stirred to go up to build the house of Jehovah which is in Jerusalem; the return was orderly and cooperative; who did not desire to return to the land of Israel,ers, assisted those who went to build the house of Jehovah, with silver, gold, and beasts, besides giving a free-will offering for Jehovah's house. Even the Persian neighbors, the people among whom the Jews lived strengthened their hands with vessels of gold and silver, goods, beasts, and with precious things and with free-will offering. Also king Cyrus commanded that Mathredath the treasurer would bring the vessels of the house to Jehovah the Nebuchadnezzar had brought forth out of Jerusalem, to Sheshbazzar v. 3-11. says the apocryphal book of 1 Esdras says that the king sent a thousand horsemen with the returning exiles, horsemen with since they carried so much treasure; that was a joyful one, according to Esdras the playing of the tabrens and flutes. They would need all encouragement, for it was a difficult and tedious journey; the route was "probably north and northwest along the Euphrates by Haran and the fords of Charchemish, and then south and south through the territory of the old kingdoms of Hamat, Syria, and Samaria."—Cambridge Bible, vol. of returning exiles is beautifully conveyed in 26:1-3. BRIGGSOGRAMS God's promises are like Him; they cannot fail. Afflictions and sufferings are the furnaces of. God, in them the pure gold is rid of its dress. Every Christian can truthfully say, "Jehovah hath done great things for me; whereof I am glad." God plans and directs the life of every man.

When you find a merchant sells at a reasonable figure, do not shop there always. If the object to make you buy right at the store, shop the door and get a real bargain now and again. Questions and Answers Mrs. Dixon, why do you suppose girls marry soon after finishing school? I think it is awful. Who is to blame? —MARIE. Good mother you are largely to blame, in that you did not start right with your child. Two forces pushes a girl to matrimony. First, a woman is destined to be the mother of all living. Second, the pursuit of the male. Knowing this to be true mother, she must train her children to be mothers and at the same time for a career. You, therefore kill the bird with two stones. She will marry and she may have a career. It is not diplomatic to finish against marrying a girl, but she thinks you so bitterly opposed to it, but never leave a stone unturned to teaching Conducted By MIRIAM DIXON All Brownie's letters that do not appear this week will appear next. Letters that arrive a little late have to be carried over to the next letter, and the next, all letters will be published. BROWNIE EDITOR. BROWNIE BREAKS HIS ARM Edgar Peters, of Lexington Street, broke an arm. He is a Brownie, please all Brownies send him a penny post card, showing your sympathy. Brownie Stories Once upon a time there was a little girl. She always said wait a minute when told to do anything. One day she was playing tea party with Sallie Anne. The tea things were of her own making from China. When tea was over the little girls started for a walk with their dolls. "Put your dishes away," called mother. "I will, in a minute," answered Lucile and away she ran leaving the dishes on the table. When she had overturned the table and broken a great many things. The little girl was very angry with pussy and at night when her mother tucked her in bed she was thinking of the dishes. Pretty soon she found herself waking down long long. At the end of the night she was in a white house with beautiful gardens all around. She walked in the gardens until she grew tired and hungry. When she saw a little man weeding flowers. "Good morning, Sir," said Lucile, "please tell me how to get home. I am so hungry," she right, right, right, and the little man went on with his work. The child walked away very angry. At the turn of the path she met a child smaller than herself. "Please show me the way home?" she问. "What will it teach you gathering these flowers," answered the child. "I will not wait I want to go home," screamed Lucile, as she hurried on. Pretty soon she came upon a little house where dinner was being cooked, how good it smelled. "What will it teach you good smells and did not notice as Lucile came in. "Please give me some bread and butter, and show me the way home?" "Wait a minute," and the old lady continued her work. After waiting a long while Lucile wore her clothes too hungry. "Yes," said the lady, "you can get it in a minute." This was too much, the child burst in tears. "I will never use those hateful words again if you will tell me the way home and give me a bowl of that soup." pleasant evening and close to the Summer School of Religious Education. The following resolutions were adopted unanimously by the Summer School of Religious Education: We, the Members of the Summer School of Religious Education of St. Paul's School, Lawrenceville, beg to make the following request of the Board of Religious Education of the Diocese of Southern Virginia: (a) That the Board make is possible for six institutes to be held at six different points among our people during the spring of one day, each year.

Shoots At Snake say, for Scotland Neck, N. C. The presence of a snake on the Purrington farm where two colored families, Dickens and Grey live, contributed to a very distressing accident last Sunday, whose Mrs. Dickens spied the snake and procured her husband's shot gun to kill it. As she placed the gun to her shoulder and fired little Fred. Gray ran in front of the barrel and received all discharge of shot into his chest, are still discharged now. Do for themselves, by, with and of?" It is strictly a personal matter with them, as it is with white graduates. There is plenty to do for both sorts, the black and the white, the colored and that the colorless. ```markdown ``` --- its good and bad points. When you have done this you have done your best. Norfolk, Va., July 17, 1922. Dear Mrs. Dixon: What do you think of our people moving in the sections occupied by white tenants? Do you think it wrong for the white folk to protest against it. MABEL When the Negro was emancipated three problems arose, the Southern white, the States and the Negro. The Negro we have now. First, it was a question of the section of the country, now it is the city. I prefer living in a community of my own people and improve my surroundings. Critics argue and justly protest as improved, property is not so valuable. Improve your own side streets and property, pay your own taxes and when this is done demand something. She said the prophet said Norfolk is destined to have a famine. Women and morally seldom. Sodom and Gomorrah might have been spared for five righteous persons. Make it more in Norfolk. Thenceforth be it resolved, that, we will work on our boys. Then the good fairy left the stove and coming over to the little girl lifted her head. "Come with me and I will show you something." In a room she showed Lucile the things she had wasted by waiting. The beautiful girl wasted by waiting. The want of watering; a book wet on the grass, and many other things. "Now you must do better if you hope to be a real lady." Lucile promised and when the last, spoonful of soup was going down she heard her own mother's voice calling, Lucile! It was a girl jumped out of bed and began to dress. The habit was not cured in a day but was finally forgotten. Talks To Brownies This week we have ten new members, Hoorey! And I misplaced a letter, whover wrote that letter, write another if you do not see yours in the book. Etta Mue Taylor is the star member, she sent in 'ten new members.' "Tell 'em we are coming."

Hoorey, Etta Mue Taylor, wrote blacks North, South, East and West, and told their neighbors about the club? How many Brownies find it hard to carry on an intelligent conversation?

The annual meeting of the Inter-racial League a section of the Tennessee Committee on Inter-racial Co-operation, which was held here July 12-13, showed that encouraging progress in race relations had been made in the state during the past year. Chief among the benefits secured through the efforts of the committee were $35,000 high schools at Dyerburgh and South Pittsburgh, $25,000 schools at Brownsville and McMinnville, a $9,000 school at Dickson and a number of smaller schools. A fine library for Howard High School and an $85,000 recreation park for the colored people of Memphis, were also secured. The State Board of Health co-operated heartily in the health program and the Circuit Court judge at Murfreesboro has asked the co-operation of the local. Inter-racial Committee with his court in handling colored delinquent youth. Another especially commendable result of the committee's activity was the foiling of a mob bent on a lynching in a Tennessee town last year.
