DYER BILL SLATED TO COME UP AT THE SPECIAL SESSION
Senator Shortridge Moved For Consideration Of The Measure. Only Twenty-Seven Senators Answered The Roll Call.
SPECIAL SESSION OF CONGRESS LIKELY
Washington, D. C. Sept.—The Dyer anti-lynching bill goes over to the next session of Congress, which, it is predicted, will be a special session called by the President about November 15. Final efforts to secure its enactment before adjournment failed.
NOT FORCES COMBINED
Not withstandin' adverse criticism by the Crisis of the efforts of Henry Lincoln the senator, a member of the Republican National Committee, and Perry W. Howard, special assistant to the Attorney General, in trying to have the bill so framed when it was under consideration by the House judiciary Committee that it would be within the constitutional limitations, James Weldon Johnson, field secretary of the National Association for the enforcement of Colonial Peccary, called these men to aid in having the measure taken up before adjournment.
As a result of their combined efforts, Senator Shortridge, Republican, of California, who has the bill in charge, moved on last Thursday that the Senate proceed to the consideration of the measure. Although there are sixty Republican Senators, when the point of no quorum was made, the Senate proceed to the consideration in all answering the roll call, six of whom were Democrats. Conspicuous among the absentees were, Senators Henry Cabot Lodge, of Massachusetts; Joseph S. Freelinghuyssen, of New Jersey, and T. Coleman DuPont, of Delaware, all of whom are pledged to the support of the bill.
PROTESTS AGAINST ADJOURNMENT
Just prior to the hour of adjournment on last Friday, Senator Sutherland, Republican, of West Virginia, protested against any adjournment of the Senate until action was had on the Dyer anti-lynching bill. He stated that he was personally interested "in the outcome of the pending elections, being a candidate for re-election before the people of my State, and regard it as important that I should go to West Virginia for the purpose of carrying on a campaign. I believe, however, that it is of more importance to the Nation that this bill should be enacted into law than that I should be enacted into law without a case to the electorate of West Virginia, or that others of this body similarly situated should do so." Of course, his protest went unheeded. It is understood that immediately upon the reconvening of Congress, the administration Liberian loan bill will be temporarily laid aside and the Dyer anti-lynching bill will have the right of way in the Senate.
COLORED EDUCATOR MAY GO TO HAITI
Washington, D. C., Sept.—The State Department is perfecting plans to send special representatives to Haiti for the purpose of studying economic and sanitary conditions and the educational system in this island. These representatives will take the place of the commission proposed in McGraw-Hill's book, *The Haitian Legal committee*, which visited Haiti and San Domingo to investigate conditions growing out of the American occupation. The State Department proposes to send an outstanding Negro educator, a successful business man and a physician, with possibly Negro lawyer the haploponic thee which the law of the island, and a clerical staff.
Washington, D. C.—Not a single measure, in which Negroes were particularly concerned, was passed by the Sixty-seventh Congress. Although pledged to the enactment of legislation to put a stop to mob violence, the Dyer antilynching bill must wait until a special session is called. The Liberian loan, with its harsh terms making possible the exploitation of the Republic of Liberia, after having been depleted and made the unfinished business of the Senate, was put aside. The bill for the reinstatement of Lieutenant Henry O. Flipper in the United States Army has never been reported out of committee. Two confirmations and one rejection of executive appointments make up the record of the Sixty-seventh Congress so far as Negroes are concerned.

BATTLING SIKI
OPPOSITION TO GARVEY GROWING MORE FORMIDABLE
Self-Appointed Moses Heckled In Philadelphia And One Of His Lieutenants Beaten In Cleveland As Masses Turn On Him.
FEELING REACTION OF ALLEGED KLAN ALLIANCE
New York.—Marcus Garvey, self-elected Provisional President of Africa," President-General of U. N. I. A., President of the Black Star Line etc., is beginning to feel the weight of the race's condemnation of his conference with the Ku Klux head at Atlanta, his subsequent defence of the aims of the Klan and his alleged alliance strongly indicated by the facts in the案-with the no-fourious anti-Negro organization.
Speaking Tuesday night, Sept. 19, before the Philadelphia Division of the U. N. I. A. Garvey was vigorously hocked as to his deals with the Klan, his disposition of funds, etc. He was sharply denounced by several former henchmen and the question of having him arrested on a charge of fraud was seriously debated on the floor.
Nor is Philadelphia alone in turning on Garvey since his Ku Klux bins. The entire country is up in arms against him. In New York he is alwayy to be seen with a large body-guard, the assumption being that he considers it unsafe to appear in public without protection, while in Cleveland during the last week no one his lieutenants was badly bent on by a crowd of former Garveyites. It is estimated that since Garvey's conference with, and subsequent defense of, the Ku Klux Klan, that substantially half of his following, West Indian as well as American have left him. In addition to this loss of membership he has aroused against him, for his Klan defense, the vast mass of Negroes who, while in the past refusing to accept his leadership, have to accept his leadership their attitude towards him. These millions are now strongly antagonistic.
That further substantial losses will soon occur in the Garvey ranks is the prediction of men well-informed on the movement. An upheaval is confidently expected in the Panama division upon the return and report of its delegates. That division is strongly interested in the disposition of the Black Star Line funds. Its delegates, Gadsby and Rahman are lingering on American evil evidently blaming them to take back the only report they can give their constituents. On the other hand, the newly elected High Chancellor "Sir" Clarence Bourne, has given one book at the books of the organization and precipitately returned to Guatamala.
A DANGEROUS PRACTICE
Many children lose their lives each year from Tetanus, or Lock Jaw caused by stepping on the points of nails thoughtlessly left protruding from boards which are thrown down and left where barefoot children, or children with worn thin shoe soles can step on them.
It only takes a few moments to remove the nails from the boards.

PROMINENT SPEAKERS ON EDUCATIONAL DAY
Raleigh, N. C.—Genuine preparations are under way for the holding of the Negro State Fair here October 24th to 28th. Each day of the Fair will be featured with horse racing and it is expected that some of the trotters it after appearing at the Suffolk Fair, will be shipped to Raleigh to contest on the track here.

Big Carnival
A big carnival will be in progress on the fair grounds during the week and it will be practically holiday in Raleigh and adjoining towns from October 24th to 28th.
North Carolina Fairs have proved successful and this year the Negro State Fair at Raleigh promises to outdo anything heretofore accompanied by colored fair promoters in Carolina.

A silver offering will be solicited at the door at this entertainment.
AFRICAN WINS LIGHT HEAVY- WEIGHT HONORS
AFRICAN WINS LIGHT HEAVY- WEIGHT HONORS
Battling Siki, Senegalese Fighter Finishes Georges Carpentier, French Champion In The Sixth Round.
VICTOR LOUDLY CHEERED BY THE GREAT CROWD
Hats off to the Frenchman. When it comes to exhibiting real sportsmanship they are in a class that should make the average American ashame.
A multitude of Frechmen gathered at the ringside last week to see their idol of the roped arena, Georges Carpentier, light-heavy weight champion of the world and heavy-weight champion of France, face a black Senegalese fighter and in six rounds after the clang of the gong that sent the African and Frenchman to clash, the Frenchman had lost his crown and all the glory of a string of victories and the African, obscure and non-descript, was acclaimed by the multitude of Frenchmen as their idol and champion.
Never Had a Chance.
Never has a champion entered, the ring with the favors more on his side than did Carpentier. And never have the predictions of sportsmen been more crudely shattered than in the defeat of France's idol by Batting Skipper, the Senegalese. Carpentier never had a chance with the African after the third round. At the beginning of the sixth round he was barely able to respond to the bell. With his nose flattened, his right eye completely closed he was unable to put up a guard. With a series of terrific blows landed on his head and body by Skii in this round, the champion crumpled up and fell, his crown gone, his glory shorn and the black subject of France receiving the tremendous acclaim of the assembled populace as its champion and idol. He was missing a boxing contest in France. When the champion was counted out many persons jumped into the ring and carried the victor on their shoulders to his burger.
Appeared Tripped
The champion fell with his legs between those of the Senegalese and the refre, Harry Bernstein, at first ruled that Siki had been disqualified on account of tripping, but the crowd knowing that the white man had been beaten by a better man refused to see the Negro deprived of an earned title on technicalities and jeered and hooted the refre, some threatening to do him bodily harm. The three judges of the fight, Victor Breyer, Jean Pujol, Frenchmen and Dennison, of London went into consultation. An hour later they declared the African the winner. Carpentier, whose appearance on the Bourse had been the signal for loud cheering in days past was hooted and jeered as he was taken from the ring to his dressing room.
The crowd was dumfounded when they saw their idol punmelled and beaten all over the ring, but it was a crowd of French sportsmen and they were ready to bestow honors wherever they show fall due. The coffin filled him with cold defeat. He had apparently underestimated his adversary. Twice he was warned for butting during the fifth round and when it became evident to the crowd that he was taking a chance on being-disqualified in preference to an inevitable defeat they began to jeer him and cheat Siki.
When the white man squared off at the Senegalese at the commencement of the fight the Negro appeared timid. He covered up to avoid that much heralded terrific right of Carpentier's, but after receiving that right on his jaw for four times he appeared convinced that the white boy was also human and his punches were delivered only by a man. Right from then Siki began to surprise Carpentier. The champion's face took on a surprised look as he landed blow after blow on the colored fighter, and yet the colored man came back for more. Carpentier 'jwas confident, however, and told his seconds that he would get him when he was ready to, but the disappointed Frenchman never did get ready.
Crowd Confident.
And so confident was the crowd that Georges was letting him stay for the moving pictures that they openly said, so, but it was soon apparent that Siki was staying because Carpentier was unable to shake him off.
Georges weighed in at 173½ pounds. Siki, with his sleek ebony skin contrasting against that of the white man's presented a beautiful picture of health and vigor. He weighed in at 174 pounds.
The Senegalese appeared anxious at the ringing of the first gong. He rushed out of his corner after Carpentier, but was met with two terrific blows which sent him to his knees. At the order of the refreshe the black man was up in a jiffy. Carpentier again landed on him. Siki had not landed a blow in this round.

SAYS CITY HAD A BAD CASE OF MONEY MADNESS
Minister Declares Mania Affected Not! Only A Few "Higher-Ups" But Thousands Had It. Tells How To Overcome It.
"Norfolk had a had case of money-madness all right," declared Rev. Bowling in his sermon on, 'Money Madness and Financial Crookedness,' last Sunday night. Reminding his hearers of how men had worked to exhaustion during the times of "big money," had invested in anything promising big returns regardless of the moral or religious issues involved, and had started new enterprises almost recklessly, the interpreter then reacted adversely on Norfolk. Man men lost their lives through sickness brought on by overwork. The accumulation of capital has been rated above the prerequisite of brains. Instead of young men being advised to go off to college, they have been encouraged to rush headlong into business without adequate training and preparation against failure. Besides, much money has been wasted and lost in speculation that might have gone into completing payments on a mortgage building payments accounts and providing for old age. Not the least of the ill results has been the hurling of baseless charges and counter-charges of graft and stealing, and of the looting of corporations, while the spirit of "financial crookedness" was really in the heart of, not merely a few 'higher-ups' but in the hearts of thousands of us. As an evidence of the widespread existence of this sin, take the frequent attempt of owners to sell stock liable to them to become so. The average man was 'cusing out' the 'higher ups' in one breath and attempting to take advantage of others' ignorance in another."
THE WAY OUT
"But," continued the pastor, "the task of the pulpit is not to foster this recent senseless campaign of recrimination. Our task is to inform the corporation, the group, and the average man how to get out of the present financial tangles. I would call to your attention first, that great benefit can be as great of anxiety and greediness after money, but from the possession of monopolies whether of natural resources like oil or coal, or of capital, or of brains and organizing ability. Unless, therefore, we are in possession of some one of these monopolies, we had better give up our greed for gain and content ourselves with a fair wage, the comforts of a moderate home and a comfortable occupation against the day of sickness and age.
"Satisfaction with membership in one lodge, a couple of good insurance policies, a steadily growing savings account, and a good dose of the Gospel every week will cure any man of money-madness and financial crookedness and will, in addition, afford him as much joy in life as though he had been a child. The text of Rev. Bowling's helpful sermon was found in Proverbs 28:20. "He that maketh haste to be rich shall not be unpunished."
The total commercial cantaloupe crop in America this year is estimated at 44,573 cars by the Department of Agriculture at Washington.

PROF. CARVER WILL DEMONSTRATE AT FOUR COUNTY FAIR
Colored Scientist Who Has Produced Over 100 Products From The Peanut Will Head Most Unique Exhibit.
HAS SPENT THIRTY YEARS IN EXPERIMENTATION
Suffolk, Va., Sept.—All fairs lay claim to extraordinary exhibits, but the Four County Fair, Suffolk, Va., October 24th-27th, may truly claim one of the most unique exhibits ever assembled. In fact, the peanut industry amounting to three hundred million dollars per year in five states has never attempted it. It is but right that the first exhibit of kind in the world should be in Suffolk—the world's greatest peanut market," said Lem P. Jordan, secretary of the Fair, and who is also identified with this industry. "We are going to have the first complete exhibit of its kind ever attempted," he stated.
WILL EXHIBIT PRODUCTS
The Fire decided not to attempt this great task unless was possible to get Prof. George W. Curver, director of Chemical Research of Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute, Tuskegee, Ala., to attend and bring with him exhibits resulting from his work of years in this line. Yesterday arrangements were completed, son and lecture daily during the exposition. Plans are now complete and arrangements are being made to assemble the numerous products manufactured from the peanuts grown in Virginia-Carolina. That the exhibit will be a revolution to every one interested in peanuts, is stating facts that peanuts are the food for our her knows the number of products depending on the peanut for their chief ingredients.
LINOLEUM AND DYES
Carver, of Tuskegee, through his research work with the peanut and sweet potato has opened new vistas for the peanut industry and his efforts will creatively benefit the peanut producing states. He has produced for practical commercial purposes from the plebian goober, the follow-up peanut industry, and his exhibition: Three kinds of butter, two salad oils, meal stock for cattle and awine, flour for diabetics, meals for polishing tinplate and metals, cake, numerous confections, ground hay, leather dyes of nineteen colors, instant coffee, bisque from peanut milk, worcester sauce, chili sauce, sprouts, relishes, breakfast foods, axle grease, toilet and laundry soins, quinine from the red peanut skins roastin' from which nitro-glycerin was derived during the recent war—butter chili, hard compound, oleomargarine, cheese filler, pomade, writing inks—purple and black, wood stains in nine shades or colors, and last, but not least, peanut milk. Peanut milk is of particular interest. An ordinary tumbler of shellled peanuts will produce one pint of rich creamy milk, containing three times as much protein, three times as much carbohydrates and two times as much fat as new milk. "By trotting the quantity of carbohydrates and proteins used," says Prof. Carver, "many different grades of milk can be made." This milk is now being produced for culinary purposes.
BORN IN OBSCURITY
The life of Prof. Carver reads like a romance. He was born in Diamond Grove, Mo., in a one-room log shanty. His parents were slaves. Like Booker T. Washington, with whom he was associated so many years at Tuskegee, he fought his way upward from reconstruction days and won his education by Manuel L. Ark. He went to Paul Neosho, Mo., working as he went along. Through the help of friends, but mostly by his own efforts, he entered Simpson College at Indiana, Iowa, and later completed his work in science and agriculture at the Iowa State College, where he took the degrees of Bachelor and Master. He was then added t othe faculty and placed in charge of the greenhouse, botany, and wood work, in systematic botany, and was called from that post by Booker T. Washington to his present work at Tuskegee, and for thirty years he has worked at that great institution.
SPOKE BEFORE CONGRESS
During early Spring when the Peanut Cleaners of the South went to Washington to consult Chairman Fordney about the peanut tariff and to appear before the Ways and Means Committee, they had Prof. Carver accompany the delegation. Speakers were allotted ten minutes each in which to present their arguments. When Carver was called, a weary look overspread the countenances of the tired committee. But when his ten minutes time was up, the members of the Committee asked him to continue; Congressmen from the lobby came into the committee room. He spoke as a scientist; showed samples of the things he had accomplished and spoke to an interested audience one hour and forty minutes. Carver knew what he was talking about. Congressmen and Senators learned much then about peanuts.

COLORED PEOPLE MAY GET LARGEST SCHOOL IN CITY
Plans As Announced By Board Of Education Are For Building Length of A City Block, Costing Near Half Million.
MALTBY STREET AND RESERVOIR AVE. SITE
Developments so far advanced by the city School Board and B. F. Mitchell architect indicate that the colored people of Norfolk are to have the largest school building in the city in the very near future. This news has been received by Norfolk's colored citizens with much thanksgiving and hope. The announcement states that work will begin on the building in the late fall, provided that funds for its construction are available. That provisio is the only thing that has kept the colored people from giving forth a genuine shout, but it is the confidential belief by the whole Norfolk colored citizenry that council will provide the funds for the much needed structure.
School Board Acts.
The School Board has assured the people along that it was developing plans for adequate housing facilities for the colored children and now that the plans are almost completed according to the announcement, the citizens state that it appears that the matter of school housing will soon be directly up to the council. The building as now being planned will have approximately seventy class rooms of about 4400. It is to be three stories in height, of reinforced concrete and absolutely fireproof. The proposed school is to be erected at the corner of Maltyb and Reservoir avenues. This site is already the property of the city. An elementary, trade, high school and auditorium, with a seating capacity of about 1000 are included in the unit. This arrangement makes the structure in reality a four in one proposition. Another decided advantage of the building as planned is that the auditorium is compelled so that entrance may be had into without passing through the class rooms. This in reality will provide a handsome civic assembly room for Norfolk's colored citizens. There will be thirty class rooms in the high school section, thirty in the grammar school and the trade school will be provided with large rooms where instructions in automobile mechanics, wood-working, electrical working, plumbing, masonry, nursery schooling, building and govning will be given. The building will be three stories high and its cost is expected to not exceed $450,000.
HUB MAKING SPECIAL OFFER IN MEN'S SUITS
Standard Clothiers Conducting Sale That Is Of Interest To Thrifty Men.
The Hub is conducting a special sale of men and young men's two-pants suits. The management states that the suits were bought to retail up to $45.00 and are good values at the regular prices, in order to start the new season with "pep" and "go" they have marked them down to the low price of $32.75. Every suit is guaranteed and backed by the Hub's reputation as being a 1922 model.
This sale coming as it does at this time of the year should have a special appeal to thrifty shoppers in men's wear, for it is only a few weeks before the frosty days will make a change in suits absolutely necessary.
Many progressive stores are specializing in the two-pants feature in men's suits as it proves a decided advantage to the wearer, in reality it is more price in suits in one for the price, and this advantage feature in the Hub sale is sure to be realized upon by thrifty men. In the Hub's advertisement appearing elsewhere in this paper will be found all the details of this sale.

M. B.
I wish to thank you one and all, especially the good people of Norfolk in helping to make possible our success. On the whole what I have seen raises my preconceived estimate of the people of Norfolk. We have good people here. I don't think the devil had much hand in making our good people here. We have just as fine white people as can be found anywhere. They give us some of everything they have. We have that high magnanimous type. They are full of generous, true, and manly qualities; and I doubt if there ever was so high a standard of morality in any people which has such means for self endulgence at its command, and which occupies a position that secures it so much deference. In general they do not seem to abuse their great advantages. And there are few, I imagine, of the great proprietors who are not more or less occupied with improving their estate, and with providing for the comforts of their tenancy, while many take a leading part in the great political movements of the day.
And if I were to be asked in regards to the great prosperity of the city, of Norfolk, and what did I think of the future of this now remarkable city, I would say in response to such question: that Norfolk has the logical constituents; the kind of stuff, that would make any city great; and accordant to her great financial ability; her unlimited resources; her great intellectual and educational facilities; Norfolk is doomed to be the great metropolis of TIDEWATER VIRGINIA. And owing to her peculiar geographical adjoining, and her great harbor, she is destined to become one of the most remarkable cities in the world, standing here near the dawn of the twentieth century, as at the summit of the mountain far backwards over the road we have traversed, loosing sight of the minima incidences, seeing it great events loom up in startling prominence before our eyes; heedless of its thronging thousands, but proud of the mighty men who have made this city stand alone in prominence and excellence; one which every Virginian has a just right to feel proud of.
POLICEMAN FINED FOR
SHOOTINGCOLORED BOY

(F. W. M. Butler and D. W. White)
Elizabeth City, N. C.—A case tried in the Superior Court of this city hast week the outcome of which was watched with unusual interest by the colored people of this and adjoining towns was that of the Citizens George Twiddy, Ralph Cuthrell, Linwood Cwright, H.

Norfolk Minister Asserts That There Is Misunderstanding Between White And Colored Leaders.
In making his report as a member of the inter-racial committee to the Presbyterian synod of Virginia, at Richmond, last week, Rev. J. G. Venable, of Norfolk, said that it was his belief that the work of the inter-racial commission was being seriously interfered with, due to lack of understanding between the leaders of the white and colored people.
The minister further asserted that he thought that the part played by the Negro in the world war has retarded the efforts of the inter-racial commission, as the colored troops had returned from the other side with absurd ideas of how they should be treated. Rev. Venable urged that the churches unite to secure those rights that belong to the colored man and said that it would be a benefit if playgrounds were provided for colored children. He stated that equal opportunity, not equality, was what the masses of Negroes desire.

Now when doubters say we Norfolk-
ians can't conduct successfully Food
Shows and Fairs, we can put them to
rout by pointing with pride to having
done so.
The police authorities of New York City have during the past sixteen months confiscated some $15,000,000 worth of liquor, but, the traffic is still very much alive and prosperous.
President Harding has vetoed the Bonus bill because no proper provision was made to pay it, because the Government is not in condition to carry the implied burden of $4,000,000,000 in addition to the millions spent and to be spent in providing for widows and orphans and disabled veterans of the World War, and because he does not believe in capitalizing patriotism.
The expectation that Harvard would adopt a policy of excluding Jews and other race groups not considered as real Americans is given color anew by the new rules of admission which requires applicants to state their color, race, their religious beliefs, and if any change of name had been made since birth of the applicant. The new rules will work a revolution in the historic policy of the oldest and most reputable of American universities which has not heretofore drawn the race and color line.
LIBERIAN LOAN DEAD
The opposition of certain Republican Senators to authorizing the loan of $5,000,000 to Liberia, the West African Republic settled and dominated by American Negroes, like their opposition to the adoption of the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill, enables us to get a line on the low estimate which a large section of the Republican leaders place upon the Afro-American people as men and partisans. It is the estimate the Harding Administration placed upon them in the beginning and in the first month of its existence.
The Liberian loan was arranged for by the Wilson Administration, and that fact has caused much of the Republican opposition to it. The Senate has voted the authorization of the loan but with a "rider" introduced by Senator Borah, of Idaho, providing for an appropriation of $20,000,000 for completion and development of Western land reclamation projects. It is likely that the House will concur in the action of the Senate so that the President will sign the bill authorizing the loan to Liberia with the Borah rider hitched on to it. That was apparently the object aimed at by Senator Borah and the Senators voting with him. Political chickens like barnyard fowl, it should be remembered, also come home to roost.
THE BOY AND THE LETTER
William Newby, a fourteen year old boy of Suffolk, is held in $500 bail by the Federal authorities in Norfolk. He is charged with robbing the mails. It is alleged that the boy found a letter on the sidwalk, near the Suffolk postoffice and was arrested by the police in the act of opening it. Will the charge of robbing the mails hold in such a case? Was the letter found on the sidewalk in its custody of the postal authority? Did the letter have an uncan stamp upon it? If it had no stump it and had not been deposited in the postoffice, or a letter box, but was picked up outside the postoffice, where the United States has no jurisdiction, did the act of opening it, constitute a crime within the meaning of the postal laws, or a simple misdemeanor within the jurisdiction of the local police power?
A man finding a letter under such circumstances, would probably turn it over to the postal authorities, or leave it in the place where he discovered it, considering it as none of his business; nine cases out of ten a boy fourteen years old, would pick up the letter and open it as a matter of curiosity and with no criminal intention. That is the humane and charitable view of the matter.
SUPERMAN FORD
A man who creates a business that enables him to give employment to 100,000 persons, and who has a billion dollars in cash and liquid securities where he can place his hands on it in a pinch, may be easily classed as a Superman. Henry Ford is that sort of man. He manufactures a good, serviceable automobile and auto truck at popular prices, and he has
grown fabulously rich by so doing.
Outside the automobile business, about which he knows the last thing, Henry Ford has many crankyisms and hobbies which do not appeal to level headed people. His political theories and fear of Jewish domination of the world's trade and finance are among these. The average payment of more wages to his employees than others pay is said to be demoralizing and hurtful to others engaged in the like industry. Perhaps. But, if he wants to share the huge profits with his employees, that is his business. Certainly his employees would be less than human not to appreciate his fair-mindedness and give him the best they have of thought and labor.
Recently, Mr. Ford created a sensation by declaring that no person who used strong drinks could remain in his employ. More recently Mr. Ford has closed up his Detroit plant and thrown 100,000 persons out of employment, as a protest against the high price of coal demanded of him by the coal profiteers. This action is bound to work great hardship to the persons concerned, but it is a logical outcome of the coal strike and the strike of the railway workers. Mr. Ford's 100,000 are not the only workers who will be made to feel the shortage of the coal supply and strangulation of transportation during the months since June, last.
When will Afro-American people produce a Superman employing more than 100,000 persons and with a billion dollars in cash where he can get his hands upon it? We think he is now in the making.

PREACHERS AND DANCING
There is a certain type of preacher who when he has exhausted his round of pulpit topics, launches out in a violent fulmination against dancing as a deadly sin, to the delight of the case-hardened sinners in his congregation, who do not number dancing among their accomplishments. A preacher of this sort in Norfolk recently preached a sermon of this character to several 18 usand people, who acquised in his wholesale denunciation of dance while greater evils were ignored.
Vulgarity in dancing, like decency of conduct in any other diversion, should be frowned upon and discountened by all right thinking people. Dancing under proper auspices and conducted with decency and decorum, is a graceful form of exercise and a favorite diversion for the youth of both sexes. The stiff and unbending attitude of certain religious denominations in putting dancing, attending the theatres and other amusements on the professional field has failed the profession, and the professional results driven many young people out of the church when strictly enforced, and in the Methodist Episcopal Church, many efforts have been made to modify the discipline in this respect, but without success, owing- it is said to the opposition of the colored delegates in the general convention.
NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE
Not all members of the colored ministry are so unbending in their opposition to dancing. A more progressive type has come to recognize that dancing may be indulged in by members of the church in a manner that does not offend the moral censor of the community. Provision has even been made for this diversion in the institutional work maintained by some churches. Under such policies all those with credible supervision exercised by those in charge, no tendency toward vulgar dancing has been permitted.
The professional instructors of dancing who recently met in convention in New York City, had considerable to say about the vulgar features that have characterized some of the ultra modern dances. A male teacher of the theater part of the responsibility for the armaround-the-neck-strangle-hold and the cheek-to-cheek-posture to the female partner. A woman teacher put the blame for such departures from propriety as fifty-fifty, or equally divided. Moreover, her experience led her to believe that the vulgar features observed in such dancing were due more to ignorance than viciousness.
The remedy would seem to be proper instruction of the young people in dancing under safe auspices. This is a solution of the question in which the enlightened members of the ministry might well take a part. Instead of indiscriminate denunciation of a dancing as sinful, let them seek to purge the diversion of vulgarity and preserve the beneficial features of it. The policy the young generation will be protected from vicious tendencies and kept within the religious influence of the church—New York Ago.
WOODROW WILSON
(BY J. M. HARRISON)
Sitting in an invalid's chair is a broken grey, silen figure.
He holds the assemby and through the panes of the windows he dreams:
Can this be the man who but a few past years held the world's love.
Hunted and respect by the power of his magic words!
Can this be who dreamed a dream of world peace and planned a League of the Earths Nations?
Is this the man whose patience like the tenderness of a mother Dove.
But whose spirit when aroused by the vision of the Earths Nations stood alone in the majestic personality as as the lion unconquered?
Those who know say it is the remnant of what was Woodrow Wilson!
Not so far removed from the White House for eight years.
No doubt he can hear the bands playing in the lot of the Executive Mansion:
What memories must flood his soul!
What dreams—now nightmares in their unfulfilled realization!
A picture that stretches the imagination—the by Woodrow Wilson of today and of yesterday.
Chained by the shackle of disease—a mind still free, struggles.
To encumipate his body from his clutch and the darkening shadows of death!
But in the vision, the spirit of Wilson still dominates.
Then men who scoffed his idols, still strong
men have have felt the sharp sting of his
rebulge.
In a world's redemption; silent until the emotions of misunderstood motives overcome him.
He rebelled in his hatred of those who "Creatured his Love" his unselfish work and duty to mankind.
Sitting in an inadvised chair is a broken grey, silent figure.
But his eyes have not become dimmed; and a man is still vigorously Survive the world which discarded the ideal who.
Non-acceptance erupted and bruised the soul of the pitiful figure.
Living under the very shadows of the Dome over which his spirit looms;
When his placid world of the Potomac kills the world of the him birth, he "watchfully waits."
But sitting in an invalid's chair is a broken, gray, silent furore.
Pastor's Withdrawal Explained by Dr. Jones
Phoebe, Va.—As Presiding Elder of Phoebe, Mission I wish to inform the membership and the friends of Ebenzer church that the withdrawal of Mr. Coupes from the church and connection has not brought about a great deal of discord against any bishop or Presiding Elder of the A.M. Church was stained in a news article in the Journal and Guide of last week.
On the 17th inst one of the Stewards informed the Presiding Elder of the action of Rev. Mr. Coapes in the following language: "The pastor has left us, he gave us notice that he would not be with us any more" I immediately put the church in charge of one of the local Preachers there, and he is in charge now. I am unofficially informed that Rev. Coapes has joined the Christian Disciples connection, if this is proven to be true, why there is nothing the Bishop or Presiding Elder can do in the W. Covenant Conference in April 1923. I wish to say in closing that it is certainly no unusual thing for preachers to leave the connection and join another, they sometimes go with credentials and some times, like Mr. Coapes—they will just go.

In the second round the white Frenchman, victor of many battles in the ring, caught the Negro flush on the jaw with that famous right, but the colored boy merely grinned at him and said "you don't hit very hard, Mr. Georges", the round went to the Frenchman, but his confidence had gone, dejection and disappointment was on his countenance.
In the third round the colored fighter, taking more courage rushed from his corner toward Carpentier who backed away and sparred cautiously. Carpentier feinted and with his right hand caught the Senegalese with his left. The Negro took a count of seven then he jumped up and rushed the champion catching him right and left swings on the stomach.
The crowd could plainly see at the end of this round that their idol was being sacrificed on the altar of black processions.
Carpentier was groggy and had enough, but dazed and howdered he started the fourth round.Siko pummelled him right and left always playing for the stomach. The white man gasped for breath, his nose was flattened. He was bleeding, his right eye was closed.
Knocked Out.
The Frenchman took the same punishment through the fifth and sixth rounds and at the beginning of the seventh he entered the ring, unable to put up his guards. The Senegalese sent a short uppercut to the white man and drove hard rights and lefts to his body. Carpentier went down and out for the count, his body lying half out of the ring. Siki had not a scar.
There was no bitterness in that crowd of sport lovers against the colored man. He had won an earned victory and Frenchmen were ready to shower him with their praise. He is black, but he won and that crowd saw to it that he was pronounced the winner before they left the ringside.

Senators Harrison And Borah's Tilt
Washington, D. C.—The opponents of the Liberian Loan Bill base their opposition to it on three reasons. First, they claim that there is no legal obligation; s-cond, there is no moral obligation; and, third the loan would neither benefit the Liberian people nor the United States. In the Liberian situation, Senator Borah sees a parallel to the exploitation of Nicaragua, Haiti and Santo Domingo by New York bankers. In the course of the debate on the bill, he made the following observation:
"We went into Nicaragua and practically took possession of Nicaragua. The financiers of New York City exploited Nicaragua to the tune of billions. There is practically no limitation upon their profit in such enterprises. There is practically no limitation upon the amount which they make, the interest which they may draw and that which they may realize. Then we went into Haiti, and practically at the point of the bayonet we forced upon the Haitian people a loan of from $18,000,000 to $14,000,000 which they were objecting to taking.
"Why did we force it upon them? Is it not an anomalous condition that a nation will be forced to take a loan when it says it does not need it and does not want it? If you will read the prospectus of that loan, which I have here in my possession, there will be no difficulty in arriving at why it was forced upon them. It was because when the commissioners were paid an exorbitant interest was paid the loan realized far beyond anything that could possibly be realized in this country. The same was true with reference to Santo Domingo. And this is but another step—a small one, indeed, but reaching into a vast region of country into which I do not desire to go."

Senator Harrison. It is peculiarly strange to me that the same day the Republican leadership was deferring and delaying and procrastinating with reference to adjusted compensation for the soldiers of the country and killing the reclamation policy that had been adopted by the Senate, an effort is made to press through here with all the force and influence of the Republican leadership a joint resolution to give $5,000,000 of the colored population of Liberia. Why did you not do it a few months ago, you now wait until the eve of the election? You are not fooling anybody. You can catch the Negro votes up in some of the Northern States. God bless you have more Negroes in my State than all of you have in yours.
Senator Moses. Will the Senator permit me to remind him that the Negro population of his state is not permitted to vote?
Senator Harrison. They do not want to vote. They have the right to vote if they should desire to vote. They know that affairs are so well administered by the white people that they do not desire to vote.
Senator Moses. I take the Senator's statement at its face value, but I think I need further evidence as to whether the colored population of his State wishes to vote.
Senator Harrison. They can vote if they want to. I shall not go into the provisions of our Constitution which permit them to vote, but I take it from the question put to me by the distinguished Senator from New Hampshire that he admits the other suggestion I made, that this is a measure merely to catch the Negro votes in the North.
Senator Moses. I admit nothing. I am merely commenting upon the statement made by the Senator from Mississippi, with great emphasis, that he has more colored population in his State than several northern States put together. The difference is that the provisions of the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments

PHILADELPHIA ROYALS AND BLACK SOX TEAMS TO PLAY IN NORFOLK
Classic Football Game for Nov. 6
As a fitting climax to the baseball season, the local management has engaged one of the best clubs in the east at play here during the first three days of net week, beginning Monday, when the fast going Baltimore Black Sox and Philadelphia Royals clash at League Park, playing a series of three games. These will, in all probability, be the last games of the local season, the grounds are to be turned into a football field. All the clubs are in the same class and number among their roster some of the best known players in baseball. The same good order that has characterized the games will be maintained and the fans will have a chance of seeing some of the best ball players among colored people. In addition to these great teams, Mr. Harrison has arranged to display the score by innings of the Giant-Yankee World series scores. Teh games will be called at 3 p.m. one of the great players of the Black Sox is Raggs former Norfolk boy who has developed into one of the fastest players of day.
Announcement has just been confirmed that Virginia Union University the southern champions who defeated Lincoln, Hampton and other great teams last year will struggle with their strongest opponents. Morehouse College will be the first team at League Park. This will no doubt be the greatest social and athletic attraction ever attempted to be pulled off here among the colored schools.

Suffolk, Va.-Re. Riddick, pastor of Sanatoga Place Baptist Church, was arrested on complaint of members of his congregation last week, just as he was about to open the Convention at Pleasant Hill Baptist Church.

Riddick requested to withdraw powering him to withdraw the money, which was granted with the understanding that it was to be applied on the church debt of $200. The pastor drew the money from the bank, the member states, but instead of applying it on the debt refunded it to those who contributed it.

THE BIRTH OF JOHN THE BAPTIST.—LUKE 1.
GOLDEN TEXT.-He shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and he shall drink no wine nor strong drink.-Luke 11:6.
1. The Birth of John the Baptist Foretold.-Verses 5-15.
Not to have a child was a heavy calamity in Hebrew home. In the childless house there was no hope of the long-looked for Messiah being born in it. It was not unfrequently looked on as mark of the divine displeasure, possibly as the punishment of some grave sin.-Dean Spence.
The parents, Zecharias and Elizabeth, of John the Baptist were noble and great; "they were of more God, walking in all commandments and or-
measure, "possibly as enrichment of some grave sin."-Dean Spence.
The parents, Zecharias and Elizabeth, of John the Baptist were great; they were rightful members of God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord
blameless." They were both descendants of Aaron the first high priest. They were childless, and both were well advanced in years.
While Zecharias executed the priest's office before the Lord, entered into temple and burned incense unto the Lord, the angel Gabriel applauded the priest who his wife Elena promised the bear a son and his name should be called John. The birth of this son would bring joy and gladness to his parents, and many should rejoice at his birth.
The Hebrew heart the message 'Unto you a son is born,' was the music of a lower gospel. It marked an epoch in their life-history; it brought fulfillment of their desires, and a wealth of added dignities."—Rev. Henry Burton, D. D.
2. The Character and the Work of John Burton, Verses 4-17.
"Thought they may be burnt abroad, Like the wing'd seed, from shore to shore.
What thou art before thy God,
That thou art, and nothing
more!"
John the Baptist was to be great in the LORD sight he was to refrain from the sight of the drink, and he was to be filled with the Holy Spirit. And from his very birth. Corpainte I Saan. 1:11; Jero. 1:5. See Num. 6:2:21; Matt. 3:4; Mk. 1:6; Eph. 5:8; Acts 2:13:17. Thus John was to be a Nazarite, but he was not (1) there is no reference to forbidding the hair or shaving, in the case of the Nazarite; (2) while the Nazarite's vow was for a definite period, the conclusion of which was marked by shaving, John's rule of life was to be perpetual, as was the case with (Judges 18:5) and Samuel (I Saa. 1:11)—Prof. Walter F. Adeney.
John was to turn the hearts of the Israelites to God—he would bring about the conversion of many of the children of Israel. "The fathers are deceitful, deceitful, parcure of Israel, the children are the ignorant, descendants who have alienated the heart of their fathers by their disobedience to their godly precepta." He shall go before the face of the spirit and power of Elijah. John's, Elijah's, Elijah's, was power, not gentleness. If the earlier prophet had to be heard Ahab and Jebezebel, the second Elijah had Herod and Herodias. Both haunted the desert, both pealed out the nation, both shook the nation, and stirred conscience. No two figures in scripture are stern brethren in spirit than Elijah the Tishite and John the Baptist."—Alexander Maclaren, Read Luke 7:27, 28.
3. The Birth of John the Baptist. Verses: 18-25, 57-80.
Dr. James Stalkner says that the time in which John the Baptist was born, was evil. The people of God had sunk very low both in character and fortune. The nation was enriched by Jesus' power; and its own princes, of dubious importance, the exact reverse of the ideals of the nation's prime. The Pharisee and the Sadducees occupied the high paces of rebellion—the one ascribe in the synagogue, the one as priest, in the temple. The publican, the imam, the faithful fauntured their vices in the eyes of all." Zecharias doubted the angel's message and was struck dumb. In the fullness of time Elizabeth, according to the word of Gabriel, conceived and brought forth a son. The son was named John, then was Zecharias' speech restored to him.
Read carefully verses 67-80, The Benedictus (Zecharrias' hymn of praise.) It has been in use in Christian worship perhaps as far as the days of St. Benedict in the century, and it was early recognized as the st Prophecy of the Old Dispensation of the New, and furnished a kind of key to the evangelical interpretation of all prophecies.
We have a very meager account of John's infancy and early life, "And the child grew, and waxed strong in the spirit, and was in the deserts till the day of his showing unto Israel." Verse 80.
"The Baptist was no Lamb of God. He was a wrestler with life, one to whom peace does not come easily, but only after a long struggle. His restlessness had driven him into the desert, where he had contended for years with thoughts he could not understand, and from whence he uttered his calling and alarm, to the nation. He was among the dogs rather than among the lambs of the shepherd." (Ecce. Hump.)
BRIGGSOGRAMS
The only truly great man is the man
who makes great God to God's
standard of greatness.
He who is filled with spirits (liquor) shall nove be filled with the Holy Spirit. He rather be dumb on the account of a vision than to be dumb because of no vision.
The blessings of God are found in the doing of your duty and in the performing of a praise-worthy service.
John the Baptist was a proschaser's son. More great men come out of the proschaser's home than any other home.
They who turn many to righteousness shall shine as the stars for ever and ever."

Talks To Brownies
Not one single Brownie sent in the name of a person needing assistance. What a beautiful place to live where all are happy and do not need help from others, or are the Brownies too need and write a letter to Peek-a-boo found an old lady hardly able to get about and with falling sight who would appreciate a card or a letter from some one. The other day I heard an old lady (in a hurd) had hard strength, say that she didn't have a dime to buy anything and another poor soul wishing for some work. I cannot give names because these people belong to good families and are being cared for (in a way) but little things they wish. Brownies be up some day. A dime in a letter will reach these needy ones and cheer them. Find others, send in their cases in your letter to me and the club will help. All persons desiring help the Brownies in this good work must contribute to Peek-a-boo care of the Journal and Guide, 711 Highland Avenue.
Most of the Brownies are studying Geography and find it hard to remember all the questions. Will each one ask the same question? Why are the New England given over to manufacturing rather than farming? To answer this question you must find out all about the soil and natural resources of New England and the seasons. Send answers to Peek-a-boo Do not have answers too solitary.
Pretty Brownie Jingles
Dorothy is a pretty girl,
Her eyes deepest brown.
But now she is in hurtful world,
Can a brighter child be found.
She washes all her pretty socks,
And hangs them in a row;
There's not a little dirty spot,
Prow ribbed to the toe.
Dishwashing is a wetting job,
And no one thinks its fine.
To wash the greys supper things.
But she's not happy till its done.
This little Brownie likes to read,
The papers, one and all.
But when the postman brings the
Cruise,
She meets him in the hall.
First she reads Brownie Chat,
And all the Brownie Letters,
She dusts her mother's sunny flat,
And always draws the shutters.
One day this Brownie saw a boy,
Fighting in the street.
She told him of our good deed club,
Not harsh, but kind and sweet.
Since then that boy has joined the club.
And worked with all his might,
To keep up with the girls and boys,
In doing what is right.
To be a really truly Elf,
You must go a little deeper,
True Brownies rarely think of self,
They are their brother's keeper.

"Well, who does your things," exclaimed Susie, "Mother, mother doesn't mind," answered Janet, "Why Janet Taylor," exclaimed Susie, "do you let your wife do it of that work and never offer to do it?" Susie stopped short. Her own mother had entered the room and was looking straight at her. "Yes, I'll hurry," remarked Susie as she looked towards her mother. And in a moment her arm, strong arms were busy at work.
When Janet came home, Mrs. Taylor was busy beeing the birthday cake. She looked tired and almost sick. She upstairs and thread some bobbines into the oven. She sat in the supper while I stitch a few minutes dear," said the tired mother to Janet. "Allright mother, as soon as I try over this piece I borrowed from Mary, replied the girl. Mrs. Taylor asked her to help her sewing and left Janet playing over the piece. Just then Mr. Taylor came in from his day's work. "Where is your mother," he asked Janet. Upstairs sewing, "was the reply, "papa aunt Francis sent me a sash and mother is making a dress to wear with it."
"Poor mother," said the father, "Janet, you must help her more, she is not looking well here of course, lets you sit down. You are the mother. The two mounted the stairs at the same time, but when they reached the door of the sewing room they stopped short, not so sound, could be heard. Now you sit down on the floor. Mrs. Taylor lay on the floor. "Loosen her clothes, bring water, call the doctor," cried Mr. Taylor in one breath, as he lifted the limp form of the mother and placed her upon the bed.

Alright little woman, we will see you, nurse her and keep her quiet; I'll be in every day until she is better."
The first thing that Janet did after the doctor had gone was to telephone all of the girl that the party had been postpone. Janet's little feet her mother was able to be up for the first time after her breakdown, Janet pinned a rose in her mother's hair and sitting on a stool at her mother's feet, looked up in her face and said, "Want to want to fess up." "Go above and beyond," she has given her sillish, "began the child, 'to let you do all of the work while I played, but, Oh, God was so good, he has given me one more chance.' "Don't worry, dear, I am satisfied," said the mother her face banning with joy, "when I face banning back to me my baby."

HOWARD AND LINGOLN REVISE ARRANGEMENTS
Proceeds From Games Between Universities To Be Split 40 To 60 Hereafter.
Washington, D. C.—Howard and Lincoln Universities have revised their athletic arrangements, placing them on the same basis as the larger universities of the country. That is, hereafter the Department of Physical Education of each school will share in the proceeds of the games. The home team receiving 60 per cent, and the visiting team 40 per cent. Under the old rules the visiting team received only its expenses. This new arrangement goes into effect this year.
At Howard things are beginning to take definite shape with respect to football. Coach Morrison began practice in earnest September 15th, with a fine bunch of "huskies." Quite a large number of the old players have not returned yet but with the coming week they are expected to put in their appearance. With the old boys back in togs and the splendid recruits from the freshman squad of last year, the prospects for a winning team for Howard's 1922 season seem bright.
How The Team Will Spend The Winter
(By Clement "Kid" Lee)
Suffolk, Va.—Knowing that baseball fans often express a desire to know how their diamond idols spend the winter, I have interviewed all the players of the Suffolk Sunbeams as to how and where they expect to hibernate during the frosty months. Here they go:
"Fake" Jordan is going back to his old job. What? Store clerk. Good for "Fake." "Ted" Smith will catch harrells this winter, instead of baseballs. Elmer Clarence "Bull" Merritt is planning to return to school and hit the gridiron again this fall. Before leaving for Norfolk, Merritt called to say good-bye. I asked him about his plans for the winter. He said, "I am going to try to be another star this winter if I have good luck." "Son" Riddick is returning to his old position so as to enable him to get married, or get murdered. George Berry is planning to go to Philadelphia and be a "pile back" for the winter. Herman Bibbins says, that he is going to be a football star like the invincible "Bull" Merritt of Norfolk and elsewhere. Walker is going to be a dancing partner to Miss Constance Von—. Some job for Mr. Walker. Mr. Alex Newby, the star hurler, is just so sweet in Suffolk, he thinks, that he is just going to hang around where the belles of the peanut city spend their wintry days. Mr. "Big Boy" Jones will go to Palm Bench, Florida. He's trailing the American Giants. Juke "Slim" Bailey is going to spend the winter in Philadelphia, on account of his bad pitching this

season. Raymond Potts says that he is going to play with the Baltimore Black Sox next season. The Sunbeams will miss him, but hope him all the luck. Professor Wilson has returned to teaching at the Suffolk Normal and Industrial School.
None of the boys have announced their plans for next season, except Bailey. The team played 65 games, winning 27 tieing 5.
Pirates Take The Honors From Slides
At League Park, Portsmouth, the Lamberts Point Slides and the Portsmouth Pirates clashed for the season's honors, September 25th. The championship of amateur baseball in Tidewater Virginia, was the stake played for in this game. The game was hotly contested, but the honors went to the Pirates, to the tune of 7 to 6. Brilliant fielding was featured by both clubs.
Bullock for the Pirates was in excellent form for the pace, and struck out eight of the Slide heavies. Potts, Blount and Bullock, led in the slugging for the Pirates and Hailstork and Brodie for the Slides.
The Portsmouth boys have registered victories against practically every non-pro. team in Tidewater and will have the final game at Paige's Park in Barkley, against the Athletics on Saturday, September 30th.

Aeolians Adding Heavy Material
The Aeolian All-Stars are assuming varsity form and with the continuance of the strenuous day and night work-outs, they should be in tip-top shape by the time the football season gets in full swing.
Johnson, of Shaw University, takes the boys in charge at intervals and puts them through a few college gridiron stunts. With the addition of new men, competition for the major positions on the team waxes strong. Captain Jackson, however, is a little perplexed at this stage of the training over the effectiveness of his kickers. This is the end to which the captain will direct some strenuous practice in the work-outs. Three colleges and one high school are represented on the team. Leigh McQueen, of Temple University and formerly of the local high school, is with the Aeolians this year, and with Johnson, the sturdy little back of Shaw, and Moorman, of Booker T. Washington High, the Aeolians should fill the bill in classy football this season.
TRUNTUN FAIR
The Fair ground is easily accessible from Norfolk, Portsmouth and Suffolk. It is on the concrete highway from Portsmouth to Deep Creek The race course will be put in excellent condition for both horse and motor racing. Mr. J. C. Johnson, of Portsmouth is president of the association.
Former Norfolk Boy Pitches Philadelphia Royals To Victory
"Bing Gardner," formerly of this city, pitching ace for the Philadelphia Royaus, twirled his team to a 4 to 1 victory against the Richmond Giants at League Park Monday afternoon. "Bing" got the capitol city boys right from the start and held them just where he wanted them throughout the game, fanning twelve men and allowing only three hits. It was the ninth inning before a Richmond man crossed the plate. Harper of Richmond was on the mound for the capitol boys and was touched for eight hits. But he suffered as much from ragged support as from the club of the Philadelphia.
The Royals took a clever advantage of Harper's poor start from the first inning and scored a run. In the third they repeated and in the sixth they doubled it up with two more tallies. It looked like the Giants might score several times, but then it was when Gardner was most effective. The Giants were saved from a shoutout in the ninth only by a passed ball.
The attendance at the Park was very good, especially as it was circus day in town and the weather was chilly.
Score by innings Monday:
Royals.....1 0 1 0 0 2 0 0 0—4
Giants.....0 0 0 0 0 0 ∨ 0 1—1
In the second game on Tuesday the Royals again took the victory from the Giants by a score of 6 to 4. Wednuesday's game went to the Giants.
Virginia All-Stars Developing Fast
Manager-coach, Willis West is producing a well rounded out, fast and snappy football team of the hardy youngsters he has selected. The team is known as the Virginia All-Stars. They have held a few practice scrimmages and from the way they perform, it appears that they will soon be in varsity shape. The club is also contemplating taking on basketball, soccer, hand ball and tennis.
The players are: Fred King, David King, Leroy Brown, Sam Parker, L. Silverman, F. Alston, C. Johnson, Anderson Coleman, Marshall McDonald, captain, Willie Bryant; Littleton Brumley, David Moore, Ford Marur, Fred Giles, Dave Alston, Willie Ferebee, Theodore R. Custis, Paul Fisher, S. Henly and James Weaver.
The club would like to hear from such teams as Lincoln High School, Berkley; Corey Memorial Institute, Claremont, Va.; Roanoke Institute, Elizabeth City and the Portsmouth and Smithfield High Schools.

given by the Colored Social and Beneficial Association, an organization of the colored employees of Miller Rhoads and Swartz, was given at the Norfolk Auditorium, Tuesday evening, September 26th. The hall was elaborately decorated with American flags and gay colored buntings. Music was furnished by the association's orchestra, under the leadership of Prof. Andrew C. Jackson. The large crowd was orderly in every respect and not a single incident occurred to mar the pleasantness of the evening. The firm of Miller Rhoads and Swartz, gave the boys very substantial support, providing them with flags, buntings and other decoration.
Among the members of the firm who were guests of the Association, were: Mr. W. W. Bennett, vice-president and Mrs. Bennett, Mr. J. A. Watt, Miss Albright, Mr. H. L. Linnell, president of the Miller Rhoads and Swartz Employees Mutual Benefit Association (white); Mrs. Walker, Miss Culpepper and a score of others representing the company. The Colored Social and Beneficial Association, of Miller Rhoads and Swartz Employees, has for its object the promotion of the best interests of the employees and the mutual cooperation with their employers.
The organization does much toward dignifying the standard of that class of labor and proving the worth of dependable colored employees in their line of service. Much comment has been heard by those attending the affair in appreciation of the splendid deportment of the club on the occasion of its first annual dance. It is said that hereafter the functions of the Miller Rhoads boys will be looked forward to by the amusement loving public with much pleasure.
