DEFENDS RACE SOLDIERS FROM THE SENATE GALLER Norfolk Journal and Guide LIBERIAN LOAN BILL KILLED IN THE SENATE BY VOTE OF 42-35 LIBERIAN AMERICAN GOLD WILL NOT GO TO LITTLE REPUBLIC Recommittal Without Recommendations Means Death Of The Measure; Many Influences Operate To Cause Its Defeat. PARTISAN LINES BROKEN IN THE FINAL VOTE Washington, D. C., Nov. 28th—On motion of Senator Simmons, Democrat, of North Carolina, by a vote of 42 to 33, the Liberian loan bill was recommitted to the finance committee without instructions or recommendations on yesterday afternoon. This means the death of the measure. Progressive Republicans joined with the Democrats in killing the bill. Thirteen Republicans voted to recommit. They were Cameron of Arizona, Harrell of Florida, Harrell of Oklahoma, Jones of Wisconsin, McNary of Oregon, Nicholson of Colorado, Norris of Nebraska, Poindexter of Washington, Sutherland of West Virginia and Watson of Indiana. The most sensational development in response to the Liberal loan was the charge by Senator Pat Harrison, Democrat, of Mississippi, on the floor of the Senate that an agreement had been entered into whereby a group of Negroes would receive a fee or commission of $650,000 for lobbying the bill. He named Emmett J. Scott, secretary of state, of the University; William L. Houston, prominent attorney, professor of law at Howard University and a member of the board of education of the District of Columbia; James A. Cobb an attorney and professor of law at Howard University; the Perennial Eminent Lyons, of Michigan; the McNary of Oklahoma, prominent attorney of Boston, Mass. Scott, Houston and Cobb denied the charges.

Motion pictures of the manufacture of important building materials, such as steel, bricks and cement, are used as a part of the three-day program of this pioneer builders' conference. Albert Farwell Bemis, of Boston, who recently made a donation of $500,000 towards the endowment of the Hampton Institute Builders' Course, has come forward with another gift which poses possible the immediate establishment of a department at Hampton Trade School which will be known as the Department of Building Construction. In addition to a two-year advanced builders' course, which will be open to qualified graduates of trade schools, this department will hold courses in the maintenance and short courses from time to time. The important function will be the maintenance of a service bureau, where advice, tests, and other helps may be obtained. The builders' course has already met with spontaneous approval from university and other building contractors. The aim of the course is to give a thorough training in the practical and technical problems which must be solved by the builder and contractor in the successful conduct of his business. Emphasis will be laid upon the architecture which should enable graduates of this course to distinguish themselves by the general excellence of their work. Pending the erection of a permanent building for this work the departmental office, testing laboratory, and design room are being fitted up in building schools during the World War for the Students' Army Training Corps. CITY EDITION VOL. XXII. NO. 48 ADVANCED BUILDERS' COURSE EIGHT PAGES Another Anti-Dyer Bill Candidate Retired New York, N. Y. — W. H. Stafford, Representative from the 5th District, Wisconsin has been added to the list of "left at homes" as a result of the recent election. The colored voters of his district are credited with causing his defeat. Representative Stafford, a Democrat, is the House of Representatives. His opponent in the election was Victor Berger, Socialist, who was supported by the colored voters and beat the Republican candidate by nearly 4000 votes. The result of this election is also significant in that he states that the majority of the intelligent New voters to vote for principles rather than to adhere to antiquated traditional policy of voting for a party name. FASHION SHOW BIGCEST SOCIETY AFFAIR OF SEASON FASHION SHOW BIGCEST SOCIETY AFFAIR OF SEASON Graduate Nurses Association Makes Decided Hit In A Pleasing Presentation At Attucks Theatre Thursday Night. The Second Annual Fashion Show given at the Attucks Theatre, Friday night before a large and appreciative audience by the Graduate Nurses' Association, Mrs. M. B. Lee, directress, hit in the popularity of Norfolkiana. The general comment heard from those that witnessed the presentation was, "good, excellent, better than last year." Of the more than thirty characters accompanying the cast, all show artistry wilt their lines that permitted perfect freedom of expression and admirable interpretation. The tiny maids in their parts exhibited potential artistic ability and training that brought genuine appreciation from the audience. Every scene offered an abundance of entertainment. "The Seasons," an act in which prominent Norfolk ladies appeared, wearing fashion's latest creations in women's wear, was the leading attraction. The styles represented show art and designed art and the grace and elegance with which they were displayed on the symmetrical figures of the wearers produced a most charming effect. Good Music The strains of the orchestra appropriately accompanied every act and the pleasing renditions of the musicians contributed an indispensable part to the show. The show opened with a Biblical scene—parts taken from several passages of the Scripture—in which was a beautiful portrayal of Mary nestling the young child; Jesus; Joseph, Mary's husband; the watch of the Shepherds; Esther; his queen Paul, Rebecca and the return of the Prodigal Son. Mrs. M. B. Lee, directress, stood at a corner of the stage and with a voice she house over, read the passages in which the names of the characters appeared, pausing to summon each name was reached in the reading. APPROFRIATE COSTUMES Each character was appropriately costumed in raiment suggestive of Biblical times. The appearance of Mary W. Bred, the first character, is Mary, Mary, Mary, infant Jesus, robed in simple but spotted garments, suggestive of purity and humility, and treading noiselessly and hesitatingly across the stage, audience a solemn silence that showed a deep reverence for the sacredness of the scene that was being enacted. That silence remained unbroken by a breath in the big audience until the final act of the Holy drama. Joseph, Mary's husband, Lieut. Thompson; the shepherds, Drs. Lovette, Bailey and Wilson; the angels, Mrs. Bass, Mrs. Givens and a number of basses, in ages from ten to years; Anasher, Persian for Queen Esther, Lawyer Howell and Mrs. Dovie Collins; Paul, Mr. Shedrick Smith; Rebecca, Mrs. Vessie Banks; the Prodigal Son, Mr. William Robinson, their respective priests, who are trained to make the scene a pleasing dramatization of the advent of Christianity and other Scriptural references. The little girls as angels presented an especially attractive sight. Their priests wore dresses pure white with 'golden' attached to their garments and they sang "Hosanna." A large canvas of the Nazarene hung on the wall, the act closing with all the characters facing the canvas and singing praised by Mr. William Robinson in a solo. LAUGHTER AND MIRTH The acts that followed produced the mirth and laughter. The "Old Maids' Tea Party," featured by Mrs. H. G. Nicholson as hostess, and Mrs. Rebecca Langley, Mrs. Martha Johnson, Mrs. Malinda Scott, Miss Sarah Mason and Mrs. Pauline Evans as old maids, dressed in antique cos- Good Music NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1922 A.

Bowling Pastor Closes Remarkable Series Of Sermons On "Sins Of A Seaside City," In Scorching Denunciation Of Lying And Malicious Truth Telling. "Everyone knows lying to be a hateful sin, a cowardly sin, a pernicious sin. Of course, there are some who would like to hear this sin defined down to detailed nicety, with distinctions drawn between the white lie and the replayable the intentional lie and the unconscious lie. But I am not preaching for the benefit of the literati and the morbidly curious of what I am going to say. I am preaching with a view to stamping out lying and helping both the liars and lied-against. Thus began a very stirring sermon on the Old Fashioned Sin of Lying, delivered first the First Baptist Church last Sunday night by the pastor Richard H. Bowling. This sermon marked the close of a very remarkable series on the city's greatest sins. good-looking woman goes into a young physician's office, 'he is running a crooked place, all sorts of wickedness is going on there.' If a man tips his hat to the wife of his neighbor, 'he is trying to break up the man's home.' The pastor of a church goes to contact a woman member who may happen to be in charge of some department or is the head of some auxiliary, 'he is a woman's man, a skirt-chaser.' Now all these embellishments and trimmings are absolutely unnecessary. Stick to the facts. Tell the truth. AS BAD AS LYING "But telling the truth does not mean trying to hurt with the truth. That is as bad as trying to injure with a lie. 'Speaking truth in love is the apostle's advice in this same With characteristic earnestness the pastor brought to the attention of the great crowd present the reasons why lying was so universally hated. He pointed out that the only folks who do not notice the reasons who have never faced it in their "You say you won't have to face it, because of your innocence of wrong and your careful regard lest occasion be given. But that is just why lying is so hateful." declared the speaker. When the liar gets through with your innocence, he pursues endless record, people will be thinking, as though you were an uncaught criminal or a moral pervert, or of your enterprise as a fake, your ideals as a hoax. When the liar gets thru imposing on your ignorance, you will be involved financially, embarrassed with your contacts, and ashamed before God. And you will get through lying, you will feel so despicable in your own sight and be so hated of the victims of your venom that you too will think of this sin as a most hateful sin." Ferrering to his next, Ephesians 4:25; "I will not confess to you we are to put away falsehood" by training from it. "Just stop lying," said he. "And put away falsehood by refusing to keep company with liars. Some will not stoop to lying personally, but they will use the foul mouths of others to carry their points. You will put away falsehood; stop doing that. Comply with yourself, and don't keep company with those that do." "To speak truth each one with his neighbor means, simply, sticking to the facts. Don't add to or detract when you are telling a thing. Too many folks like to embellish whatever they tell. This is the reason for these lies we hear about folks almost every day. In an office, she is 'running around with him'. If a young woman is teaching under a man principal, 'she is his woman, he is keeping her.' If a business man makes a purely business call on one of his young woman employees, 'he is frequenting her house. No matter how sick and in need of medical attention she may be, if a EVERYDAY LIES in the North and West where she paid a Branch of the I. B. P. O. E. of the army. She regimented in the normal matters concerning her sex and while away she delivered addresses in our cities and was greeted by capacity in Black Truthsons"--Rev. Bowling. le Series Of Sermons On City," In Scorching Deng And Malicious Truth good-looking woman goes into a young physician's office, "he is running a crooked place, all sorts of wickedness is going on there." If a man tips his hat to the wife of his neighbor, "he is trying to teach the man's home. If the pastor of a church goes to consult with any woman member who may happen to be in charge of some department or is the head of some auxiliary, "he is a woman's man, a skirt-chaser." Now all these embellishments and trimming are absolutely unnecessary. Stick to the facts. Tell the truth. "But telling the truth does not mean trying to hurt with the truth. That is as bad as trying to injure with a lie. 'Speaking truth in love' is the apostle's advice in this same chapter. You can be just as mean and despicable and devilish in the way that you might take a truth as you would be by telling a hard-done 'Speaking truth in love!' Would such truth-speaking needlessly break up a home, scatter a family, spell ruin for unborn children and put a veil of shame over a once smiling face? And yet, at every turn in Norfolk, there stands someone ready to tell the truth with malice aforethought. Malice aforethought is what changes a plain killing, and malice aforethought is what makes some of the truth we tell as black as the fittest lie." COMFORT FOR LIAR'S VICTIMS In closing the pastor pointed out how we are to escape suffering because of lies. "However," said he, "after you have done your best you can't escape altogether. Though you are literally laying down your life in pain you can perish and discolor all that you do. Don't get discouraged. Says Peter, 'If a man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed.' They lied on the suffering Savior, who poured out His life for His detractors. Do you want to be better than you was? Oh, how they lie on him They lied Him out of a garden of agony into a court of shame. They lied him onto Gabbatha's Pavement, where they lashed his bleeding back and spit in his innocent face. They lied him to Golgotha's suffering summons. They thank God, their nails. But thank God, their lies couldn't keep him down. Nor will they keep you down. Don't fight back, don't blab out in malice all you know. Remember, you are to build bulwarks about you by speaking truth in love and showing love to others of love. A big heart, a loving disposition and an active sympathy for others will win out over slander and abuse every time. You can be lie on and still do big things for God." The pastor announced at the close of this sermon that he would preach this coming Sunday night to special men in the middle of Be Good What You Carry Home. Special seats will be reserved on the lower floor for men. AS BAD AS LYING SENATOR'SATTACK ON FRENCH TROOPS ANGERS VETERAN Hefflin, Of Alabama, Demands Ejection Of Wounded Soldier Who Sought To Interrupt Hitchcock During Speech MAN RETURNS AND REMAINS UNMOLESTED Washington, D. C.—On yesterday afternoon during the course of the reply of Senator Hitchcock, Democrat, of Nebraska, to statements made in the Boston address of Premier Clementeau in regard to the occupation of the Rhine by black troops, a Negro soldier in the Senate gallery rose and said, "Mr. President, may I interrupt the Senator a moment." Senator Hitchcock ignored the interruption and proceeded with his speech, denouncing the quartering of "colored troops" in German territory by the French people and the establishment of brothels for them. He alleged that there are some 23,000 colored troops quarteted among the white population, notwithstanding Climenteau's statement that all colored troops had been withdrawn from this territory. At the conclusion of his remarks, Senator Helfin, Democrat, of Alabama, brought up the incident and requested the removal of the Negro from the gallery. "If we are going to eject the white women from the gallery when they seek to interrupt a Senate session, we are to be ejected, why shall a Negro be permitted to do the same thing and remain unmolested?" he asked. Senator Reed, of Pennsylvania, replied that "the man against whom the Senator is protesting is a wounded colored soldier. If it gratifies the Senator, he may know that the man has been removed, and the Senator may have been removed, and the Negro is in the gallery a man who was wounded in the service of his country." The Negro later returned and was allowed to remain unmolested. BIG CONCERT AT ARMORY DEC. 8 BIG CONCERT AT ARMORY DEC. 8 Stellar Symphony Orchestra, Hampton Quartette And Booker Washington Hi Chorus In Grand Musical Affair.

LOBBY Association Also Comes In For Severe Criticism By Editor J. Finley Wilson On Account Of Its Advertising Methods. FURTHER EFFORTS MAY DELAY DYER BILL Washington,—(Special to G. & C.)—Notwithstanding Democratic threats to blockade the Republican legislative program, efforts to have the measure called up for consideration are being made. But an important development in this regard is the emphasis toward the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People as a result of its activities in the last election. Further lobbying by the National Association is at the expense of Colored People through its secretary James Woldon Johnson, will delay and hinder the passage of this measure. Republican leaders assert that they will no longer be responsible to the demands of this organization because James Woldon Johnson is at Republicanatic ally with sociolistic tendencies. The association has also come in for severe criticism from J. Finley Wilson, president of the National Negro Press Association, on account of a letter he wrote in a number of white dailies throughout the country last week. Mr. Wilson said that "the National Association—that is, its membership is made up largely of colored people who contribute to the high salaries of its officers, and the Negro press in particular is not accorded the association, even to the extent of carrying propaganda in which there was not a scirilla of truth. Therefore, it is passing strange that an organization of this character would use the columns of a newspaper to propaganda but resorts to the white press when there are thousands of dollars to be spent in advertising." THE CALL IS FOR MANLY MEN SAYS DR. JELTZ THE CALL IS FOR MANLY MEN SAYS DR. JELTZ Thrilled His Audience In Special Sermon To Men Sunday As He Plead For Higher Efficiency. Sounding the clarion for many men and exhorting his hearers to abstain from all practices that tend to lower human efficiency, Dr. Nathaniel Hawthorne Jeltz, in his special sermon, Let Go, And Let God, to Shrub M. E. E. Arthur Sunday afternoon, thrilled the audience in a masterly plan for higher-physical efficiency, moral efficiency and spiritual efficiency. The evangelist quoted figures from the war department records showing to what an alarming extent that so-called "warrior men" are the American men. "Manly men are the demand of the day," declared Dr. Jeltz and the "survival of the fittest is the test." "Half men cannot hope to retain the respect of women," continued the evangelist. "Let go of petty things and let God take hold," was the way the evangelist defined the subject "Let Go and Let God." "Men who find themselves too busy to become identified with the church in a vigorous way should let go," he said. Men should certainly see the necessity of being church members. He pleaded with men to forge to the front in all worthy endeavors and not be quitters. "Failure," he said, "is only postponed success when the effort is backed by ambition and mistakes are stepping stones to accomplishments." "Man should depend more on the God with which he conceived than that he had but little empathy for the man who prays "Oh, God, move the stumbling blocks and make my pathway smooth." "I pray for strength and the realization of the God within me and I, myself, will then move the stumbling blocks" shouted Dr. Jelzr. The evangelist conducted a vigorous song service, before entering into the sermon. His talk thrilled the congregation of men. Sends Letter To Senator Charles Curtis, Of Kansas, For Insertion In "Congressional Record," Stating His Position. INTEREST IN MEASURE PURELY ALTRUISTIC Washington, D. C.—Dr. Emmett J. Scott, in a letter sent to Senator Chas. Curtis, of Kansas, in charge of the Liberian Loan Bill, for insertion in The Congressional Record, vigorously denies what he terms the unfounded charges made by Senator Pat Harrison, of Mississippi on the floor of the Senate. A course of debate on the bill in the upper house Friday, November 24, Senator Harrison made the following remarks: "It is pretty generally understood, I think, that certain persons have a contract with the Government of Liberia in the event this Loan is made they have to give a commission, of $500,000. It is not secret that the five persons who have this contract with the Government of Liberia are members of the colored race. They have been very conspicuous and the corridors of the Capitol buttonholes and using every influence in order to obtain the passage of this legislation." "For years I have been deeply interested in the welfare of Liberia. I have been actuated, however, solely, by a genuine interest in the struggle of the Little Republic on the West Coast of Africa. I have waited at any time, sustained to the Liberian Government, or Liberian officials, any relationship based upon contracts or understandings to the effect that I am to receive money from the Liberian Government. "It is, therefore, exceedingly unfair for the junior Senator from Mississippi to publicly make a statement of his confidence unfavorably reflect upon me when he easily have been directly and correctly informed as to the facts in the matter." COHEN NOMINATION WILL BE OPPOSED Washington.—(Special to J. & G.) The nomination of Walter L. Cohen to he comptroller of customs for the state of Louisiana is opposed, and if the Senate follows the precedent set in the Henry Lincoln Johnson case, the Cohen nomination will be rejected; for Senator Ransdell, Democrat, of Louisiana, has announced that there will be a determined fight made to prevent confirmation. Anent the Cohen appointment it has developed that the chief object of the visit of Governor John M. Parker, of Louisiana to Washington was not to invoke Federal aid in stamping out the business in his state but to demand of the President that he withdraw the name of Mr. Cohen from consideration by the Senate. According to White House correspondents, the President emphatically refused the request of the Governor in this response. Mr. President, following the states of his office, I will go to the mat with you, and will carry the fight in the Senate and in that body oppose his confirmation", and the President in reply told him, "Go to it," or words to that effect. Mr. President, by the states of his office at New Orleans under a recess appointment. His friends intend to make strenuous efforts to force his confirmation regardless of the wishes of the Senator from Louisiana. Co-Operation, Keynote of Gov. Trinkle's Speech to Race Group J9 G. E. R.

Richmond, Va.—"A nine-month school term for every child and at least a normal graduate as teacher in every Virginia school," was the educational objective of the recent threeday, tenth annual session of the Negro Organization Society of Virginia whose officers include Robert R. Moton, honorary president; Allen Wash- Hon. E. Lee Trinkle, Governor of Virginia, declared that his eyes had been open, since he took office, to the many fine things that Virginia Negroes have been doing to help aid the poor, including man and woman, in Virginia," he said, "ought to belong to this Negro Organization Society, which will achieve results and do much good." Governor Trinkle, who was introduced by the Rev. D. E. Johnson, of Johnson, a man who man, hibited great interest in the advancement of Negroes along many lines—a man who has the courage of his convictions—a man of broad interest and deep sympathy," declared that every individual should be an individual objective of accommodation, based on service. GOVERNOR TRINKLE SPEAKS "Men' and woman," said Governor Trinkle, "can do almost anything that they are determined to do. It is always a great pity for people to give up. Colored people today are reaping great good from the efforts of a previous generation. Sotodias, who were a great widow, were. While there are great ends that men can accomplish as individuals, it is also true that by a combination of good services and good wishes men can 'put over' anything they wish. We must have co-operation to secure our lives. Surely when we pull together, Differences among men ought not to make them less friendly. It is through discussion that we work out the good things of life. Individual opinion should yield to public judgment. We are often not willing to let the other follow us. After settle down to the best things. "Virginia has 650,000 boys and girls of school age. Of this number 400,000 are in average daily attendance. Virginia has 700,000 building schools. Of the 150,000 Virginia is spending $18,000,000 annually on education, which aims to create a better citizenship, which, in turn, means a better and more useful State. We are not doing all that we ought to do that we oppose to do. Virginia is the most willing and willing to spend money for education. We must keep everlasting at the work of educating all the people. "We have gone through the centuries almost like cannibals with retaliation in Virginia. We are the child in Virginia means the loss of thousands of dollars to the Commonwealth. "I want you to know that I am back of you in any honest effort you are making to advance your race. When you are made to exert their force for good, it will mean much to Virginia. Let complaints be built on constructive programs. We want to find the things that will make us all better and applaud us with joy to felicitate the people of Virginia on their obedience to the law. "The 2,800,000 people of Virginia will not bow to the criminal class. Prohibition, for example, can be enforced by Christian people. Public opinion is fast forming. People are discovering that there is law in Virginia and that law has iron clutches. The Christian community must power and they must stand together." TEN YEARS OF PROGRESS Major Allen Washington, commandant at Hampton Institute, in his annual, presidential address, outlined the Society's progress during ten years of work has been steadily increasing" he said. "I believe we have done some good in Virginia toward encouraging our people to build better homes and more schools, as well as in teaching them through lectures and leaflets to improve their living conditions in their home communities. There is no phase of social-uplift work more deserving of our attention at this time than that of encouraging our people to improve those conditions, relate to improve health, education, homes and farms." At the closing meeting addresses were made by President W. J. Clarke of Virginia Union University on The Place of the College in Education, H. R. Mumford, president of the Co-operative Education Association of Virginia, on "Building Up Community Spirit"; Franklin O.

Leading White Women Pledge Racial Good Wil SATURDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1922 N. C. GROUP FOR CHRISTIAN RELATIONS N. C. GROUP FOR CHRISTIAN RELATIONS Special Emphasis On Protection Of Women, Children And Home; Mob Violence Condemned. Raleigh, N. C., (Special)—Another important step in the South-wide movement for better race relation was taken when eighteen representative North Carolina women met in Raleigh, on December 12, accepted membership in the State Committee on Race Relations, and gave out a vigorous declaration of their principles and purpose. The personnel of the group was most notable, including outstanding leaders of the State Federation of Clubs, the State Welfare Board, and the big church organizations. It is doubtful if there could be found in the State another group of equal number having as wide connections and able to wield as great an influence. After a day given to earnest study of the interracial situation the group drafted and gave to the public the following statement: "We are conscious of a world condition of rustlessness in which race friction plays a conspicious part. We cannot ignore the fact that this presumes a problem that the South is accustomed to involve that the conscious that the eyes of the world are upon us, questioning our course. We cannot shirk the responsibility of taking up the challenge, grasping the opportunity presented, seeking a solution to this problem and demonstrating it on our Southern soil. We believe that unrest existing between two different races dwelling side by side under the same economic system and the same government can be lessened, and eventually dispelled by a course of justice and fair play. When one race exceeds the other in numbers, in possessions and in opportunity there is but one solution. As a Christian people we hold the elements of that solution. It lies in the cultivation of an attitude of fairness, of good will and a conscious determination to establish an understanding sympathy. We believe that every human being should be treated not as a means to another's ends, but as a person whose aspirations toward self-realization must be recognized; that we must cherish racial respect and racial self-respect, as well as such mutual respect as will lead each to higher moral levels, to mutual trust and mutual helpfulness. We believe that in this process certain values must be developed and maintained. No family and no race rises higher than its womanhood. Hence the intelligence of women must be cultivated and the purity and dignity of womanhood must be protected by the maintenance of a single standard of morals for both races. The right of childhood to health and safety, to the training of body and mind in high habits and the soul in right purposes is unchallenged. The childhood of every race must be safeguarded, for races move forward on the feet of little children. As a foundation for social security for all races the family ideal must be made possible by economic justice, by religious sanction, by legal safeguards and a single standard of morals. We believe that violence has no place where people lend their support in every possible way to the agencies constituted by the people for the express satisfaction and punishment of offenders against people, and result the assertion that criminology can be controlled by lawless breaks, and woman's honor protected by savage acts of revenge. We believe it our highest duty to pursue these methods toward harmonious racial adjustment. We believe that bitterness, resentment and strife will yield to mutual trust only as we steadfastly cultivate and uphold this faith in our common humanity. To these ends we pledge ourselves. Similar organizations of women have been effected during the last year in Georgia, Alabama, South Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee and Texas. This enlistment of the women is generally regarded as one of the most significant classes of the good will work that is being done throughout Interracial Cooperation on Interracial Cooperation which came into existence in 1919 and now has branches in every Southern State and in 800 counties.

COLORED PASSENGER ASSERTS HIS RIGHTS COLORED PASSENGER ASSERTS HIS RIGHTS Has Conch Cleared Of Unlawful Invasion By White Smokers In Colored Section. South Carolina—Mr. William H. Hummerson, colored, of Darby, Penn, while a passenger on the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad enroute from Charleston, S. C. to Philadelphia by some assertion of manhood and admirable fact had the colored coach cleared of whites who had unlawfully invaded it for smoking purposes and secured the colored men passengers ne accoordations that they had paid for. How Mr. Summerson was able to accomplish this act is best explained in his Letter which follows. "Leaving Charleston, S. C., Oct. 29, 1922, on the Atlantic Coast Line R. R. for Philadelphia," says the letter in part. "I took a seat in coach 1014 which in appearance was the one occupied by the whites. In the forward end of the coach were, on the left, Ladies Toilet and on the right, Ladies Toilet for 10 minutes after the train left Charleston, I noticed a young man go into the ladies' toilet after coming out he then went into the ladies' wash room; about 10 minutes later 2 men did likewise. I at once thought something was wrong so I began to investigate and I found that at the rear end of the coach, the smoking room with all accommodations for men had been taken over by the whites and our men's toilet and if they wished they had to go to the platform of the car to do so, and at one time 6 or more were there smoking while the train was speeding along. "Shortly after noting these facts, the train conductor came along and I asked him, what about the men's smoking room and their toilet in that coach, and he said that we would have to use the women's and go to the platform, if we wanted to smoke. I then said to him that it was against the law of the Inter-State Commerce and that I would report it. Later I secured the names of a few witnesses. While I was getting these names the conductor sat 3 or seats back of me talking to 2 white men. Shortly afterward they disappeared into the room and a short while after that I noticed a change and the smoking room was vacated by the whites and turned over to us before we reached Florence, S. C. ROPER, N. C. Mrs. Katie L. Anthony Rev. R. R. Cartwright, preached an able sermon Sunday, speaking on clean hearts. * Those that attended the Annual Conference were: Messra Melvin Dickson, J. J.

Works Of Haitian Composer For B'Way (Cranader Service) New York.-Justin Elie, celebrated Haitian composer, distinguished product of the Paris Conservatoire and the black race, has arrived in New York to offer the most unusual ballet of modern times. Mr. Elie's new ballet is a work devoted to the wierd, thrilling strains of the ceremonials and rites of what is sketchily known to the world as Vooidoism and greatly misunderstood by the white Christian world. Vooidoism is said to be as lofty in conception and pure in practice as any of the ancient Greek cults, to which, in fact, it bears a close resemblance. Its initiations are closely guarded and it was only by a rare piece of good luck that Mr. Elie was able to witness one of them. He describes his experience as follows: My young friend and guide took me with him back into the mountains at a considerable height. We were not a great distance from Port au Prince West End Motor Works This is the Place for Efficient Repairing of Automobiles. Work Done Well and Satisfactorily. D. L.

Hylan Calls On Police To Drive Out Klan (Chamber Service) New York—Following the opening of Ku Klux Klan headquarters in this city by the Rev. Mr. Oscar Haywood of Calvary Church, Mayor Hylan, democrat, issued instructions Commission of Police, Richard Enright, to drive the Klan of New York City, Mayor Hylan's letter to his Commissioner of Police follows: The Ku Klux Klan or any secret organization of similar character and purpose is a menace to our city, State and nation. The people of the city of New York will not tolerate their existence within the confines of our metropolis. Do not leave a stone unturned to ferret out these despicable, misloyal persons who are attempting to organize a society, the aims and purposes of which are of such a character that were they to prevail, the foundation of our country would be destroyed. I noticed in yesterday morning's World that Rev. Dr. Reach Stratton and Rev. Oscar Haywood, D. D., of Calvary Baptist Church, are alleged to be connected in some way, with this secret organization, if this is so likelier than along this line would not be out of place.

Too much of the midnight oil that is burned these days is vaporized thru a carburetor. The fashionable form of entertainment this winter, housewarming, is not likely to make a hit with coal dealers unless conducted on a reciprocity basis. The United States senate has placed its final and definite disapproval upon Liberia's application for a loan of $5,000,000. Thus making this Christmas a gloomy season for the Liberian government. The European governments have decided to stop 'scrapping their battleships. Present indications are that they will have some scraping for their battleships to do before Germany pays what she owes them. Governor John M. Parker, of Louisiana, went to Washington recently to ask President Harding to extend him federal aid in ridding his state of the Ku Klux Klan. At the same time he asked the President to revoke the appointment of Walter L. Cohen, which he had just made, as Surveyer of Customs, port of New Orleans. His sole reason for asking the President to revoke the appointment was that Cohen is a Negro. The only difference between Mr. Parker and the Klan which he seeks to exterminate is that he does not wear a mask and gown. POLITICAL SLAVERY Any sort of slavery is offensive. The worst and most dangerous slavery is that in which men become the dupes of things they create and serve them instead of being served by them. Political slavery is of that sort. We can see how disastrously this slavery works in the Southern States where it has destroyed party opposition and made dupes of all of the whites who are crowded into the Democratic party, in the primaries of which a large part of the citizenship are not allowed to show their faces or have any participation, working utter destruction of government by party in the operation and substituting government by oligarchy, or government of one part without the consent of the other part. Such a condition is bound to create civil injustice and unrest, dangerous to the welfare of the State and Nation. During the past year there has been a greater display of political independence of thought among Negro newspapers and citizens than at any previous time. They had plenty of provocation, both in the administration of party affairs in the Nation and the States. President Harding had told them bluntly in his Birmingham address that they should split their votes as other race groups do, that they should have their own leadership, and insinuated broadly that he did not gonder them desirable citizens, intimating what he would do,—bar them out of appointive offices and turn their State organizations over to the precious Lilywhites. Negro press and leaders harped on this slap in the face and talked loudly and long about being the "balance of power," and what they were going to do, and all that. When the campaign got in full swing, and the political advertising and "hand outs" began to circulate they closed up their brave talks like so many jack-knives, fell in behind the white Republican leaders and split the walkin with praise of the Republican party and its leaders, magnifying what the party has done and minimizing what it has not done during the two years of the Harding Administration, with a Republican Congress on the Presidential hands. When the campaign closed, Blanche, Tray and Sweetheart were in full cry, not as they had felt and preached all the year, but as they were paid in advertising and "hand outs" by white recipients of party favors and emoluments had instructed them. The moral of this condition of aflaire is as plain as the nose of the face. Until the Negro people know their rights in social, civil and economic citizenship and develop average wealth enough to pay those of the race they can trust to fight for those rights and leaders intelligent and wealthy enough not to require subsidies or bribes for their services and inducement, we shall enjoy only the benefits of citizenship. WINFIELD F. YOUNG It can be truly said of the man whose name captions this article and whose recent sudden passing has cast a deep shadow over the many who knew him to love and admire, that he lived for others. He was in every sense a neighbor. Born in slavery, he had the experience of feeling and sharing the hopes and aspirations of his people. After emancipation he groped with them for light and progress, and with the crude facilities at his command prepared himself as much as possible to serve them. His conception of hindrances to racial progress and useful citizenship embraced ignorance and intemperance, and it may be said that his life was dedicated, first in the school room and later in the public forum to the lifting of these hindrances. His talents, his time and his means were used, to the last day of his life in exalting the ideals which he so dearly cherished. He was one of the pioneers of his race to enlist in the fight for prohibition. Thirty-five years ago when he joined the White Ribboners in North Carolina in the fight against the saloons, it was exceedingly unpopular to be a "temperance man." The licensed saloon was a privileged and entrenched institution and it was a courageous layman indeed that dared to publicly assail it, but W. F. Young was in those days one of the most stalwart aides of the White Ribbon Society, which, by force of circumstances was composed chiefly of white women. His hope was in the young people and he worked among them. In every church that would permit it he organized a "Loyal Temperature Legion," and from every pulpit and platform that would give him access he thundered against the evils of rum. He did not always have the support of his friends, but he never lost the courage of his convictions. Finally, he lived to see the things that he fought for achieve a large measure of victory. He lived to see public sentiment on the liquor traffic entirely reversed. He lived to see the legalized sale and manufacture of intoxicating liquors abolished in his country. He did not fight whiskey as a political or commercial issue, but as a moral issue. He loved his neighbor, and he knew that whiskey drinking destroyed his neighbor; that it filled the jails and the asylums and these things moved him to passionate pity for its victims and to eternal vigilance against the ravages of it. At the peak of the great moral drive against intemperance he launched a newspaper, The True Reformer, which gave wider circulation and larger audience to the propagation of his ideals. Into this paper and the courageous and manly fight that he made, at all times against great odds, went practically all of his material accumulations, but he was willing to give all—for his neighbor. He lived beyond his three-score and ten. In his declining years he gave wise counsel and advice from his rich experiences to those who would feel honored to be worthy to stand in his place, and who can think of no more appropriate epitaph to inscribe upon his tomb than Milton's immortal words: "Servant of God, well done; well hast thou fought SULTAN AND CALIPH Following fast upon the party overthrow and peaceful revolution in the policy of their Nationals of Great Britain and Italy, the Turkish Nationalists, with the Angora Government behind them and Mustapha Kemal Pasha as the head and front of them; has deposed the Sultan of Turkey, defied the Allied Powers and begun to govern the country on their own account, complicating to that extent the Near East Problems, which only a short while ago threatened to precipitate a bloody war between Europeans and Asiatics. The Angora Nationalists are aiming to drive the European Powers out of Near East Asiatic affairs as the latter aim to keep the former out of European affairs. The Angora Nationalists have the upper hand of the situation, and we think they are likely to keep it, the European Powers are not prepared to "carry the war into Asia" In deposing the Sultan and establishing an elective National government, the Kemalites also separate the Caliphate, or religious head of the Moslems, from the civil authority, much as we separate Church and State in this country. What effect this drastic action will have upon the Moslem world, which has Mohammed for prophet and Allah for God, remains to be seen. Speculatively it should be to the advantage of all to separate the administration of religious from civil affairs. The alien races and sectaries of Turkey may get better protection and consideration from religious persecution when they have the civil power to deal with. It will be good if it shall be so. NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE As a rule children never get too old not to lean upon their parents and to expect them to provide for them when they are in want or trouble, and they seldom do. But children are much like dumb animals when they have come to maturity. They go their way and make homes and rear children of their own, and do not have the disposition to look after and care for their parents who may be destitute in their old age. We have come across many painful examples of this character in the course of our going up and down the King's Highway, but we have been glad that they were so few as compared with examples of devotion of children to their parents. Let us be thankful that it is so and hope that it may become more so with the coming and going of the years. Another trouble is that some people take special pains to show their ignorance. The only styles that have not really changed are the styles in price tags. If some folks could see themselves as others see them, they would have to be forced to take a second look. Colored heckler put out of Senate gallery-headline. Could it be possible that he was in the right house but on the wrong floor? "Bobbed hair must go," say hairdressers. They should have concluded by saying: "Or business must cease." The statement by M. Clemenceau that "100,000 black men fell gallantly on the frontiers of liberty and we are not going to deny them a place in history," evidently serves notice that he intends to leave America something to 'chaw on.' TUNE YOUR EARS AND LISTEN Because they cannot see it. Don't rush your cause or try to make— Amends for what they're missin'; Just wait 'till they, their silence break And tune your ears and listen. There is a lot of idle talk afloat, With ill-advised persistance, That well might show us who's the goat; But we've extended our distance: Let others go ahead and blow; There's nothing much you're missin.' You can't go wrong by laying low; Just tune your ears and listen. Do as thousands of other thrifty housekeepers do—use Kenny's. Popular 28c Coffee, instead of the 40c-45c canned coffee. Then you will get quality and economy combined. Try it be convinced! PARENT AND CHILD Every where mankind attach a peculiar sanctity to 'childhood. This is true even among people who have a low estimate and appreciation of womanhood. How common this latter estimate prevails among backward peoples is quite remarkable. Among Christian people respect for womanhood and proper care of childhood are basic principles of faith. Indeed, the family relation and the State built upon the family relation, differentiates Christian people from those of other religious beliefs more than any other one thing. The oneness in the duality of the Christian family is the basic principle of the Christian philosophy. A case came up in a court in New York City recently which illustrates a feature of the relation of parents and children which, while it must not be taken as a rule must be accepted as a too common exception, and is the result of innate deprivacy rather of fault in the Christian principle involved, and which has been commanded us, in the following: "Honor thy father and thy mother that thy days may be long in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee." A woman sixty-seven years old was found sitting in front of a drug store shivering with cold and starving with hunger. Upon investigation it was found that the drug store belonged to her son and that she had three other rich children, married, one of whom, a daughter, said to be worth $100,000. The old mother had been evicted because of non-payment of rent. The druggist said he that the sister with the big bank account should care for the mother. The Court rebuked sternly the children and commanded that they provide for the mother. It appears that they agreed among them that the old mother should by their joint contributions be placed in an old folks' home as the best solution of the matter! The mother said that the children were good and that she would be satisfied to live in the home, where she would be alone and happy. She had no complaint to make against any of the four children. They were in her estimation the best children in the world. That is the way mothers invariably think about their children. It is the most sublime and beautiful thing in the relations of humankind, but it is usually found to be stronger with the mother than with the father and the children. More's the pity.

WRITER SEES "RISING TIDE OF COLOR" WRITER SEES "RISING TIDE OF COLOR" Cornelius Vanderbilt Charges Japan With Seeking An Alliance To Wrest Asia From The "White Group." New York, N. Y.-Writing in the New York American for November Cornelius Vanderbilt Jr., multimillionaire in what he expects to be the "side of white," and charges Japan with aiming at an alliance to wrest Asia from the "white grip." He says in part: An alliance of Oriental people with the purpose of wresting all Asia from the grip, the goal for which Japan is heading. "The Foreign Office in Tokyo calls this movement for a united yellow race the "Pan-Austria League." Na-ku Kawasaki calls it the "All-Assia Movement." "It is a movement pregnant with possibilities far beyond the mere object of ridding Asia of the white man's economic dominance. Rather than the seed of a mighty movement that may yet sweep the Caucasians from their own spheres. "To this end the Imperial Japanese Government proposes to take the main step in its hastening - succession of clever deeds in diplomacy. Japan is almost ready to invite the great Power of the world to attend a World Congress on Immigration and Racial Discrimination. "But Japan knows all too well, far in advance of the convening of such congress, that the Oriental peoples will not leave such a conference victors—knows that the white race will never voluntarily lower the bars of the Japanese condescend racial equality to the darker. "Japan knows that such a conference must end unfavorably to the Asiatic, to the African, to the Australioid. "But once Japan has been successful in drawing a definite declaration from the white nations that the Oriental peoples, then the first great unifying force among the Oriental peoples will have been fashioned. "Returning home, seemingly defeated, but in reality with the fruits of richest victory, Japan, under the prosecution of the grievously insulted, will turn her eyes upon her Asiatic brethren and, as leader, decry the action of the white nations. In a claion voice of commanding and attentive tone her assertion will sweep all Asia and Africa: "The white man has refused to grant us equality. We must ally ourselves for protection against him less the white man subjugate the yellow man in the struggle we already subjugated the black race! "By inverse application of results such a conference becomes the key for unification of the dark peoples in a mighty organization—numbering three hundred,000 white population. Its menace to the white race needs no elaboration." No Licensed Doctors In Police Court Persons who assay to practice medicine in the city without the formality of a license are coming in for quite a bit of interference by the police this week. Two colored men ran afoul of the law in this respect this week. J. A. Green, 52 years old, and said to be a gook when not doctoring was arrested by officers Henly and Powell and on charge of violating license laws. His law was continued to await the appearance of a witness for the prosecution. Mr. John Pritchard, a medicine seller, was also arrested for the same offense, but was released when the arresting officers failed to prove their case against him before Justice Simmona.

Young and a member of the Journal and Guide staff were borne to Calvary Cemetery, Norfolk, and interred in their last resting place Saturday afternoon. Young died suddenly Wednesday night just past week. He was 74 years old and a veteran in the newspaper business. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Richard H. Bowling assisted by Rev. D. J. Lee, Rev. M. B. Birchette and Giving to A. S. Lomax, and living climber to life of the deceased, treasured friend and caretaker of living—simple and beautiful. The absence of long testimonials and eulogies at the bier of one whose life hundreds would have joyfully testified in esteem created an air of serenity and reverence strikingly illus- Rev. Bowling delivered a brief but impressive sermon. He touched briefly upon the life of the deceased but confined his discourse more largely to the negative effect of death upon the character and influence of man. The Guide family, the Guide force and a number of intimate friends attended the ceremonies and followed the body to the grave. Mr. W. F. Young was born in Hallifax County, North Carolina, May 1848 and as a boy was taught the elementary subjects by his master to whose assistance he had access, supplementing his education with private study and reading. After the death of the war he studied under private tutors and became one of the first colored public school teachers in his native county. After teaching school for a number years, he filled many areas of trust and responsibility, serving as executively as magistrate, county commissioner, postmaster and enrolling clerk in the North Carolina legislature. In 1898 Mr. Young established the "True Reformer," a weekly newspaper, which later became the "Dur. C." Reformer, which he successfully succeeded until 1912, when, on account of empathy of his health, he disposed of it to other interests. After a year of recuperation he became identified with the Journal and Guide and was one of the most valuable members of his life until his death. He was a member of Union Baptist Church, Durham, N.C., from which he was sent out several years ago as a lectiate minister. After becoming identified with the church and ministry he became an untiring many temperate societies, organizing throughout the North Carolina lecturing upon the evils of strong drink whenever he had the opportunity. Mr. Young was beloved sincerely by the co-laborers in the Guide office and the influential influence of a life mellowed by a gracefulness and ripeness was an asset that his followers have irretrivably lost. The deceased is survived by his widow, Mrs. Sallie A. Young; one daughter, Mrs. Mary A. Harris; four sons, Walter M., Winfield S., Plum-B. and Henry G., Young, and twenty three grandchildren. W. M. Grogan, undertaker and funeral director, of Portsmouth, had charge of the funeral arrangements. Floral tributes were numerous and beautiful.

GOLDEN TEXT.-The harvest indeed is plentious, but the laborers are few; pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he send forth laborers into his harvest. Luke 10:2. Dear Mrs. Dixon: I. The Sanding Out the Seventy-Luke 10:13. The Lord appointed seventy others. "They are the quiet, untitled, almost unknown men and women whom Christ sends forth. They were all laymen 'unabee' in theological understanding, in the life and the work of the world lies in the work of those plain, every day people who form the rank and file."Denn C. R. Brown. ```markdown ``` There are two incentives for sending forth, (1) the need to defend the fewness of workers. M. D. 37:88; Jn. 4:13, 43. Pray and ask for the help of the midst of wolves, v. 2. "No teeth nor claws, no weapons nor guns!" They went as Paul unto Macedonia a troubled region, then and a troubled region of the world. Livingstone went into the heart of the dark continent, with no weapon but the great love in his heart. They went as John G. Paton went into the heart of the world. Their opposition by the potent influence of their own unselfish devotion. They went, in their opposition, from instruction and instruction, from sacrifice, for the spiritual victories they were get out to win. "Lambs among wolves, kindness and sacrifice, for the spiritual victories they were get out to win." Lambs among wolves, kindness and sacrifice, for the spiritual victories they were get out to win. ```markdown ``` 2.4 The Directions Given to the Seventy-versen 4-11. "These men were to travel light; they were to take with them no purse, no wallet, no money, no shoes, no bridges, which answered the purpose of a purse, and no provisions in their wallet, which was their provision basket (the Greek word for purse) and which was Jesus did not want His messengers to bag their way from 'outiders'.) and no shoes addition to the sandals which they wore. They could not stop, and hence could not stop, to salute any one on the way, for oriental salutations consume their ministry was two-fold; the heal and preach the gospel of the kingdom of God. These missionaries were not to push people against their people, and people pose against their will to accept their message. "They were not to cast their pearls before awe." Into whatever city they went, they would never ever city ye enter, and they receive you not go out into the streets thereof and say, etc. Vs. 10.11. Work of the Seventy Crowded with Success, Vs. 17-40. BRIGGSOGRAMS The First Layman's Missionary Movement the first part in the evangelization of the world. Those who preach the gospel should live by and of the gospel. Strictly speaking, the gospel is only for the "those who want it."

BAPISTH CHURCH The congregation at Bank St. Church listed to an instructive and interesting sermon, Sunday morning by the pastor, Rev. C. M. Long. Rev. Long's subject was "The Wisdom of This World," from 1st Corinthians 3 chapter. 19 verse. The sermon was scholarly and dwell on the wisdom of man. Rev.

In the great rally conducted at Bank St. Church in November of 1710 was collected to date. Rev. Long will fill his pulpit again December 24th. THE DOORS WILL CLOSE AT 3:30 enough. I do not approve of this where girls are keeping house for their father or brothers or when keeping house alone. Be careful of your good name. It is easily lost and not so easily regained. Just a question or two, if you don't mind please. If a boy was going with a girl and had been away for about three years, but still corresponded with me home, visited her while here, do you think it alright to kiss her good by好. This boy seems to be a very nice refined boy and it is the first time he has ever attempted to kiss me. Please give me, your opinion. —HOMELY GIRL. Dear, Girl: How I wish to gather you every one as a hen gathers her chickens under a fence. When the boy goes away go with him to see you if you like but do not allow him a kiss when he leaves you after a call. You will win out if you do as I say and maybe you won't if you don't. Prodigious kissing cheapens you and makes you the pleasure. The woman always pays. Elizabeth City, N. C. Nov. 19, 1922. Dear Brownie Peek-a-boo: I like to read your paper very much and especially the Brownie Corner. The letters written by the little Brownies are very interesting.

Please send me a button. Yours truly, THELMA SPELLMAN. Norfolk, Va., Nov. 19, 1922. Dear Peek-a-boo: I received my button Friday and was very glad to get it.

Dear Brownies: My mother received my button and would not let me have it, because she was afraid that I would eat it. I eat everything I get my hands on. I cried and made such a noise that she had to hide the button. Yours, LITTLE RIGHT WRIGHT. Berkley, Va., Nov. 23, 1922. I am ashamed at my not writing for so long, and am sending you one of my friends. I am also sending the names of some of my friends, please send them buttons. Norfolk, Va., Nov. 12, 1922. Dear Brownie Peek-a-boo: I have not received my button yet but I am writing. I would like to receive a friendly gift from some of the members, must I write first? I certainly do admire the grit of Greenland Mystery. Why should he or she keep their name secret? Please let the cat out of the bag and give it to a friend. I give with Greenland Mystery about not telling about our good deeds, but I can say this week I have been working too. Why I have secured twenty members for the club and they are wide awake. After the contest, we should start something else, but I don't understand the contest. I remain a Loyal Member, ADELINE COPELAND. Norfolk, Va., Nov. 12, 1922. Dear Brownie Peek-a-boo: I am writing to all the Brownies as they seem to be quite busy with the contest. My good deed for last week was to give my show money to a lady to pay her insurance.

Hughes, of Tituwont, who had been in failing health for more than a year, died Sunday, November 28. Mr. Hughes was quite a shock to relatives and friends. He was apparently improving and was in the street only the day before. He was a man of sterling worth and strong character among his fellow associates. Four years ago he was chairman of his deacon board, chair master, clerk of the church, trustee, Sunday school teacher, and in former years was superintendent of the Sunday school. He was a member of several funeral organizations, among them the Masons and Odd Fellows, in all of which he held some office of trust and honor. The funeral services were held November 28 from the Mt. Pleasant Baptist Church Tituwont, which he was a member for 42 years. The services were largely eulogistic and were conducted by the pastor, Rev. G. R. Malloy. The great concourse of people, and the great floral designs testified to the high esteem in which the deceased was held. Interment was made in Mt. Pleasant Cemetery with Masonic honors. St. Paul C.

PAUL LOSES GREAT GAME TO SHAW SQUAD Lawyer Williams, Superior General Mitchell, In Dual Role. Bv J. L. Whitehead Lawrenceville, Va., Nov.—Today on Russel Field St. Paul fell to the tactics of Shaw University by the score of 3 to 2, notwithstanding the fact that the plucky orange and black lads outplayed the white and maroon Tarheels two to one. The impenetrability of St. Paul's evenly balanced line, the alertness and speed of their ends and the consistent onslaught of their backs were stumbling blocks to the North Carolinians who came to Brunswick County twenty strong bent on annihilating the Tigers. The game was a fine one and each eleven scored well, but the shall technique from the beginning to the end of the memorable gridiron conflict. St. Paul's artillery was deadly and twice it looked as though the Sorebacks would cross the Old North State boys' goal for a touchdown; but in the throes of defeat the breaks favored the Raleigh machine. With the phenomenal luck, coupled with the brave and desperate stand which they took, the visitors met the excruciating bombardment with stubborn and effective resistance. While forced to play less than defensible yards, held their own in the pinches, and deserves credit for taking advantage of the opportunities which enabled them to squash several times what seemed apparent victory for St. Paul. Lawyer Williams was St. Paul's most outstanding player. Once on a fake play, he circled left end for 26½ yards. He used splendid judgment and his generalship was far superior to his opponent's. Leroy Williams played a sensational game. The "Old Reliables" Walker,arker, Maddux, Leroy Williams, Middleton and anguished-played stellar football; which Collins, Martin, Cuffee, Byrd, Junius Williams, Pierce and Spady played a marvelous and unique game. Mitchell was Shaw's mainstay. While he intercepted a forward pass on his 3 yard line and was thrown by Byrd and Parker for a safety in the first period, he redeemed himself in the early part of the fourth act, when, having failed on three previous attempts, he shot the J-5 over the crossbar for the score which gave his team the winning point from the local's 23 line, Russell Williams, Steward Lyle, Mowery, Pickford and Chambers all represented their school.

"The Butterfly Dance," a presentation of kindergarten girls, offered an opportunity for the tiny maids to star. Their dance was a highly entertaining affair. A model beauty parlor was set up on the stage in this set by Gatling and Gatling's Maude Claiborne appeared on the church street. The display was decidedly entertaining as well as informing. Mrs. Maude Claiborne appeared and entertained in a solo that rivalled the nightengals for musical heights. Mrs. Pocahontas Johnson, modest, Washington avenue and O'Keefe street, conducted an exhibition in model draping. Taking a bolt of silk, uncut, she draped a human model so perfectly that a young lady appeared be wearing a gown to grow with all the tucks, frills and foliage attached. The Bluebird Club of the Y.

Miss Carrie Flanigan in "When The Flowers Begin To Grow" was a popular hit. Miss Sallie Gatling as autumn, wearing a handsome two piece suit made a very pleasing appearance. Beauna Jackson as "When The Leaves Begin To Fall" captivated the audience. Her appearance was stunning when she backed off the crocus and loose in riotous applause. Mrs. Ala Givens as winter, wearing a heavy fur coat and one piece dress came next and immediately caught the admiring attention of the audience and held their gaze until she disappeared.

Gray as a "Beach Couple," were also a hit, Miss Lillian Carr, wearing an afternoon dress and the season's latest coat was easily a major attraction. To say that she was charming would be putting it by mildly. Semi-evening dress worn by Miss Rebecca Smith was another gorgeous creation and the young lady wore it gorgeously. Afternoon tea dress worn by Mrs. Ruth Bass, set an example that "social teas" will most certainly emulate in winter's society circles. Every lady who will probably attend receptions this winter should have seen Miss Myere in her latest creation in formuelle tees wear. It was a leader. Mrs. Almey also designed the designer's degree in dance frocks and whether it will be worn by the season's dancers or not in a question; but it was no question that the frock was admired at the fashion show. Mrs. Beauna Jackson again appeared wearing a formal evening creation. This creation was a dazzling affair. Mrs. Jackson affected a most beautiful attire in this masterpiece of the art.
