Donohugh, associate Secretary for Africa and South India for the Board of Foreign Missions of Methodism Episcopal Church, sailed for the West Coast Africa. Mr. Donohugh will visit all mission stations and make a study of each locality. His especial interest is in the progress being achieved toward the development of a church among the people of Africa, with leaders and pastors of an own race, supporting and administering their own church in affiliation with the parent church in this coun- This tendency is now being studied in all fields in which the Board of Foreign Missions of the Methodist Episcopal Church is operating. Without any violent readjustment, it may be expanded into a federal and support-oriented mission of churches, in a kind of Christian League of Nations. Bishop Fisher, the youngest bishop was quick to note on his return to India in 1920 the restlessness among the Indian leaders, due to their desire for greater responsibility. He is the man of the Indian blood was made president of Lucknow Christian College. The development of Africa as an important and growing opportunity for spreading Christianity has been emphasized. In many places scattered throughout the continent there are whole Christian villages. It is the purpose of the training school and industrial farm at every mission station now in Africa. However this is a matter of time and tremendous expense. Fine results in human progress and devotion are shown by many of the black-folk and Africa is coming forward to be one of great missionary fields in Church. Mr. Donnough will be absent from this country about a year and upon his return will report to the Board of Foreign Missions at length upon his findings. This journey of the Secretary to Africa is an indication of the growing importance of that country as a mission field and to presage support for the Methodist in educational, evangelistic and medical lines in the years to come.

Morris, Jr., South New Orleans Audience Greets Norfolk Orator With Monster Demonstration. New Orleans, LA—Before nearly 2,000 persons who jammed, commodoious Pythian Temple Theatre to its capacity here last evening, at the closing session of the State-wide Industrial Conference, Charles Satchle Morris, Jr., of Norfolk, Virginia, famous colored orator, delivered one of the most eloquent, practical and persuasive speeches from a platform in this city. His was a fervent appeal to his auditors to emancipate themselves politically, educationally and economically, since they were Negro is largely in his own hands." URGED RACE CONSCIOUSNESS Young Morris urged his hearers to refrain from "enthroning every white and dethroning everything black. Emulate the deeds and revere the men," he shouted, "who have joined the jewelled company of the brave." His was a brilliant plea also for the race to support its own institutions, for "in that way and in that way alone do we develop, a racial consciousness." "Color fades and race vanes before the man who has financial power." Hon. Walter L. Cohen, acted as the master of ceremonies, while the speaker was presented by the Rev. D. Charles Brooks. R. L. Johnson was chairman of the committee of arrangements; being responsible for the orator's appearance here. Enroute to New Orleans, he delivered a speech at Smithfield and Charlotte, North Carolina; Spartanburg, South Carolina; Atlanta, Georgia, and Montgomery.

Pauldung Presents Gigantic Scheme At Committee Meeting At Tuskegee. Tuskegee Institute, Jan.—The Committee on Business Promotion of the National Negro Business League may here last at the meeting appointed at the annual meeting of the League held last August at Norfolk, Virginia, and was asked to devise ways and means to put into definite action the plans for establishment of the Negro Business League and development of Negro business as proposed by Dr. Robert R. Moton, at the Atlantic City session of the Business League in 1918. The presentations was presented by Mr. C. C. Pauldung and discussed by those present and at the close of the meeting Mr. Pauldung announced that within the next few weeks a group of men would be asked to assemble to go into permanent organization. Those who attended the meeting here in addition to Mr. C. C. Pauldung, the chairman, were Dr. R. Moton, president of the National Negro Business League John F.

Dies At The Ripe Age Of 125 Years Mother Of 16 Children, One Now 98 Years Old; Leaves 198 Great-Grandchildren. Atlanta, Ga.—Eveline Bolton, col- ored woman of Oglethorpe county, Georgia, is dead at age of 125 years, 9 months and 11 days—which constitutes a record in longevity for the state of Georgia and undoubtedly comes close to a similar record for the entire United States. Mrs. Bolton died on December 24, 1922, and the delay in telling the 故事 of her long life is due to the recent death of her husband and other facts have been very carefully investigated by Justice H. H. Glen, registrar of births and deaths for the militia district in which she died. On Friday the story was given out by the Georgia Department of the state department of the state board of health. Dr. Davis is satisfied that the facts in the case will now bear the closest scrutiny. In the report of his investigation, Jeremy Mann says, "She was the age stated on the death record, or very nearly so." He found that her third child is still living, at the age of 98. She was the mother of 16 children, had 48 grandchildren and 191 great-grandchildren. As corroborative evidence of her age, Justice Glenn reports that the date of her birth, March 13, 1797, has been handed down among "her folks," and she is survived by her children, 100 years. She is recorded as a member in good standing of the Mount Zion church for the last 115 years. During slavery days, she was the property of Noah Bolton and the death record was furnished by a desendant of Mr. Bolton's, N. H. Bolton. The first edifice of the church to which she belonged for so long was burned to the ground 80 years ago, and the second member for 35 years preceding that fire. The land on which that church stood reverted to the grandfather of Justice Glenn after the building was thus destroyed. The death of her birth, 1797, it will be seen that, despite her long life, she lived as a slave longer than she lived after the emancipation. TO ATTEND INSURANCE MEETING IN ATLANTA Mr. H. C. Brown, agency director, Standard Life Insurance Company, Norfolk District, left the city Monarch, where he served as the conference of agency directors and state supervisors to be held in that city, January, 24.

JACK JOHNSON TURNS TO MANUFACTURNING Has Invented An Automobile Mechanic's Wrench And Organized A Company To Make And Market It. New York, N. Y.—Jack Johnson, the famous pugilist, has retired from his theatrical activities and will enter into the manufacturing business. Jack is the inventor of an automobile company and has been approved by many prominent automobile men as a new and practical tool. The J. A. J.

"Back to Africa," has a strange sound to a Negro whose ancestors arrived in this country 304 years ago. A boyish heart is full of glee. When void of aggravation, But playful pranks are bound to be That's a part of his education. Some future day I hope to greet, This youthful inspiration; A chap whose life is as complete, Is worth our admiration. The way the States can handle mob violence has been demonstrated at Herrin, Ill., and Harrison, Ark., and will be amplified a little later on at Mer Rouge, La. The sheriff of Levy, county, Florida, told the governor that state troops were not needed; his local government could handle the situation without outside assistance. After that the whole Negro settlement was hurred, two white men and four Negroes were killed and all the Negroes chased out of the community. He told the truth. He proved that he could handle the situation without outside assistance. Public sentiment will sustain Police Justice Spindle in giving reckless automobile speeders jail sentences in particularly aggravated cases. That is a wholesome way to break up what is nothing short of a vicious criminal practice. There is no greater menace to life and limb than the type of automobile drivers that have no regard for either the rights or safety of pedestrians, or of other conveyances. One sure way to reduce the danger is to send the speed demons to jail. Norfolk's new municipal grain elevator opened for business Monday morning, giving this city the real status of a grain port and opening another field of commerce and labor. This forward step is due to the vision of the present city administration, backed by the hard work of the port commission, of which Mr. Barton Myers is president. In the construction of the elevator much colored labor was used, and its operation opens additional avenues of employment as longshoreman and in various other capacities. Making two blades grow where only one grew before as it were. War clouds gather fast and thick in Europe as a result of the military occupation of Germany by France for the purpose of forcing the payment of the enormous war reparations assessed against Germany, which the latter claims it is unable to pay. France thinks she can force payment by seizing the coal mines and other essential industries in the Ruhr district, one of the richest in the world, but they will have trouble in doing this without the co-operation of the Germans, who are organizing against such co-operation and showing an ugly disposition to stand and fight. "From a position of outstanding contender for Dempsey's crown six month's ago . . . Wills has sunk to virtual obscurity, while Floyd Johnson, Jess Williard and Louis Firpo have stepped into the heavyweight limelight," says a New York sport writer, but the only reason Wills has dropped into obscurity is the refusal of Dempsey to allow him to exhibit his goods. To pass up a good man like Wills and take on a lot of hasbeens and second-raters shows clearly that Dempsey is not so sure of his title that he would risk giving the crack colored boxer a chance at it. There is one thing certain—Harry Wills has not been boxed into obscurity. ELAINE VICTIMS APPEAL Mr. Moorefield Storey, the eminent Boston jurist, has just argued the case on appeal of sixteen of the victimse of the brutal Elaine rioting, in 1919, when it is estimated that some three Negroes were murdered and quite a hundred railroaded to the gallows and the chain gang. The riots occurred in 1919, and the sixteen victims have had several trials and reprieves. It will be remembered that a large number of Negroes were gathered in a church considering their many grievances against the farmers for whom they worked as tenants, and the storekeepers with whom they "tarn accounts" and who were outrageously robbed and bluffed by the farmers and storekeepers, when a pose of white persons began firing in the open on the outside of the church. The slaughter, in which not a white man lost his life, began in that way. The people of Arkansas, the white people, made themselves partners in the guilt of the posse by siding with them and by ruthless prosecution of the Negroes who did not start the rioting and were only victims of it, and the people of Arkansas must suffer the offence of the bloody miscarriages of justice and pay for it. "Vengeance is mine, saith the Lord; I will repay." He will, Let us hope that Mr. Storey will be able to.get the case of the sixteen victims before the Federal Supreme Court for review. It should not be in this country that such violent acts of lawlessness as the Elaine rioting should go unwhipped of Justice in the persons responsible for and guilty of it. UNFORTUNATE NEW BERN FIRE VICTIMS 1. A church may definitely plan, as far in advance as possible, to exchange invitations from visitors from church of the other race on Race Relations Sunday. 2. A church may appoint representatives to make the visit and response to an invitation, or announcement of the visit, may be made with request for volunteers to make visit. It is thought that better results will be obtained if the ministers of the churches definitely plan in regard to the effort. A receiver feasible there should be an ex-change of speakers. This may be carried out in several ways. The visitors to a church may select a spokeswoman. A special speaker may be sent to deliver a address at the special. Race Relations Service. The minister of one church may be invited to brush at a regular service of the other church. In all, uses the better side of the life of each race and the ways of cooperation between the races should be emphasized. The worst fears of the victims of the recent terrible fire at New Bern appear to be in store for them. It is not enough that fire has destroyer their homes and valuables, the acculations of a life time of industry and thrift; the city board of aldermen has adopted resolutions which condemn the land of the victims for municipal purposes. If they are not willing to accept the appraisement the city puts on the value of the land the city will confiscate it and pay the price it suits them to pay. The right of the aldermen to condemn this property is perfectly sound in law but there is nothing whatever sound about it in equity or morals. Indeed, it looks like rubbing it into the poor victims because the city fathers have the law and white public opinion on their side. It is a question of might, not right. Those who use power in this way do not reckon with the law of even which makes them pay for the injustice, but the law of even reckons with them. There need be no misunderstanding about that. It is written in The Book. The fortunate victims of the New Bern fire did as much by their labor and thrift and devotion to the best interests of the city to make it great and prosperous as their white fellow-citizens. That is a law of political economy which equalizes the contributions of the poorest and richest and the most learned and most unlearned in a given community to the common store of land, houses and hereditaments. And these possessions are regarded in our law and equity as being sacred as life itself. Life and property rights are in the same class and cannot be invaded, invalidated or sacrificed except to meet a great and pressing public necessity, which nowhere appears in the conditions produced by the New Bern fire. Those who have been deprived of their land will have to go out of the protected city districts and build up another community of their own, without proper police or fire protection, without proper water and sewerage and lighting. They will have to begin all over again, with the hope held out that when they have made their property valuable and desirable the city board of aldermen may come along and condemn it for public uses. That kind of hope withers industry and thrift at their very roots. May God influence the minds of the white people to do simple justice to their black fellow-citizens in the matter of life and property rights so that the wrath which always camps on the heels of injustice may be tempered in its fury. A man nowadays is known by the money he keeps. Wounds made by words are hard to "heel." Astrologers foretold a lot of trouble for 1923. In the meanwhile Mr. Garvey announces his lecture tour. In politics and finances, we are told, human nature never changes. The short changes are merely oversight. "England Starving For Humor," headlines the Digest. With a dark future due to America's failure to cancel the war debt, what more could be expected? It is said that wives cost more in Africa than they used to. That's simple, just wait until they learn about alimony. So far civilization hasn't advanced to the point where it allows well wishers to settle down before they settle up. SHORT WINDED: The condition a man invariably gets in after he gets through with his bills around the first of the month. Our 1922 corn crop was worth $1,900,000,000, not including the profits derived from watered stocks. A medley, then a ragtime air, To cap the syncapation, His program routs my every care, It gives me relaxation. The recent letter of Prof. Kelly Miller, of Howard University (Washington, D. C.) calling for a racial conference, strikes me as being very timely. These are "Perilous Times"—the reflections are seen in every direction. The ultra-conservative may regard it as a Call to arms." Be that as it is; it is a call that we must heed. While there are leaders and "Near" Leaders that claim the work of the Inter-racial Committees at various points in the South, I confess that I am unable to see any improvement in racial tolerance: It seems that the echo to every hopeful sign of racial good feeling in the South is the news of some atrocious crime committed against a Negro or some Negro community. Stoddard's "Rising Tide of Color," written in the race race and it was left to Kelly Miller to pen in a serious vein the sequel, his appeal for racial solidarity. As he came forward Dean Tillie extended his hand and said: "If thy hand is his my heart give me thy hand." He hung shaken hands, as the two stood before the audience, Dean Tillie, said further: "President Atkins, I honor the THE RISING TIDE OF PREJUDICE Dear Mr. Editor: While we held no brief for the political and financial preachments of Marcus Garvey, yet I have felt that it was so unfortunate that Messrs Dubois, Abbott, Johnson, Randolph Pickens, et al, could not have taken him into a conference, rather than standing off playing him, as by so doing they might have harnessed and diverted his ability to a more useful purpose, since it's clearly evident that Garvey is a genius as an organizer. Dean Miller has sounded the alarm and we trust that the Educators, Political leaders, N. A. A. C. P. Negro Press, Fraternal and Religious bodies will lend their aid to the end that such a conference as suggested be held and that right soon. Respectfully, G. JARVIS BOWENS, M. D. Norfolk, Va. Preach not to me of heathen far away, Whose souls have never tasted God's sweet love And to whose images they bow and pray, Made from richest jewels, gold and clay— Wandering aimlessly, no light above. Preach not to me of justice and of right, Nor dare tell me that your Christ is God; While rule is based on cruel power and might, While we the under dogs you urge to fight — Forgetting the coming, of the chastening rod.

HEART TO HEART TALK WITH CORRESPONDENTS An old and valued subscriber to the JOURNAL AND GUIDE wrote the editor-in-chief the other day that "this chit-chat in most of your out-of-town correspondence is mostly nonsense." Our irate friend had reference to the purely personal nature of much correspondence that this and other newspapers carry, such as "Miss So-and-So is visiting Miss So-and-So; Mr. So-and-So is on the sick list; Sunday was a high day at Such-and-Such a church; Lawyer So-and-So or Doctor So-and-So motored somewhere, etc., etc. The editors sympathize with our friend who makes the complaint and think that he is entirely right. Our newspaper correspondents do put too much emphasis on the personal element in news and pay too much attention to "social climbers." What the people want is information, realism, constancy, trust and not so much social twiddle, but it is not a very easy matter to educate our correspondents up to that idea. This is a gracious moment for me and one of hopeful suggestiveness for my race. The name of Rev. John Tillett was greatly honored and revered in the humble home of my childhood; and this gracious consideration of me and of my race by his son, Dean Tillett, is in line with my feeling that it is desirable to bring on the bright spots in this matter of race relations. There are of course many dark spots, many things to discourage, but I believe in stressing the bright spots. PROGRESS IN RACE RELATIONS "As a colored man and citizen of North Carolina, I call that the first appropriation made by the State legislature, for a school for the special training of Negro teachers in our Most progressive newspapers are getting away from the idea of playing up the personal and social activities of people to the exclusion of real news. But the news is news that will interest everybody. Not news items that interest merely the persons mentioned, or the people in a restricted community, but people everywhere. Something happens almost every week, almost every community that will interest people. That is what the newspapers want. 9 Lots of people buy a race paper just to see their name, in it, and if their name or the names of some of their personal friends are not in the paper they don't care to buy it. Our correspondents are expected to educate that type of reader out of such a narrow viewpoint. According to some of our correspondents their readers do not buy the paper if the news of their small community is left out. This "news" usually consists of personal mention of a few persons. They are not interested in the notes of industrial, educational, commercial, fraternal, religious progress, and progress along other lines; they are not interested in the news of congress and the state legislatures that affect the race; they are not interested, apparently, in other large developments in general that affect the interests of the race, so they require their papers to crowd out much of this really important matter in order to chronicle a lot of what our Tillett And Atkins Now Co-Workers They Meet At Meeting Of Federal Council Of Churches And Clasp Hands. Indianapolis, Ind.—A unique incident occurred at the recent Annual Meeting of the Executive Committee of the Federal Council of the Churches at Indianapolis which excited deep interest and was a striking symbol of the growing co-operation between the white and the Negro races. Dean W. Thillet, of Vanderbilt University, who became a Member of the Council and a regular attendant upon the annual meetings of the Executive Committee almost from the beginning of the Council, arose under a request for personal privilege, and addressed the chair in substantially the following words: "Before passing from the consideration of the subject of Christian Education to the next subject on your program, I ask that I may be permitted to make a few remarks that are personal to myself and one other member of this Executive Committee is present here this afternoon, and a special work in life like has long been that of Christian Education. I am quite sure that the relationship that exists between me and this fellow-member of the Council to whom I refer is one that does not exist between any other two members of this Executive Committee; and I am equally sure that this peculiar relation is not ever again be duplicated in all the cases of the Federal Council. I allude to the fact that the son of a former Southern slaveholder and the son of one who was formerly owned by him in the days of slavery are together here in this room this afternoon as fellow-members of this Federal Council and of this Executive Committee. The member of the Council to whom refer is Professor S. G. Atkins, the former State National College of St. John Salem, N. C. one of the most full and successful of the institutions for the education of Negroes in North Carolina. BORN IN SLAVERY: NOW AN EDUCATOR "Among the small number of slaves owned by my father and mother in my early childhood, the one we thought most of and trusted most and loved best was named Allen Atkinson is that man's son born in the midst of Haywood, N. C. who is now today as a member with me and you this Executive Committee and as the honored representative of one of the Churches constituting this Council, He was educated at St. Augustine Normal and Collegiate Institute, at Raleigh, which is recognized as per the best institution of its kind in the South. St. Augustine-graduating at this Institute, Mr. Atkinson founded the institution at-Winston-Salem, now some thirty years ago, of which has always been the head and which is now the property of the State of North Carolina. The fact that the State should be willing to take over the property and retain Professor Atkinson long at the head of it, is the highest possible compliment to the character of the school and to the executive ability and worth of its president. With that information concerning his father and his own achievements, I am now going to ask President Atkinson to come forward and let me present him to the Council." complaining subscriber referred to as "nonsense." If our newspapers keep feeding them on this kind of stuff they will develop atrophy of the brain. Now, if newspapers, we know that you cannot confine the social activities and personal going-about of our people altogether. But do "cut it down." See if you cannot confine your notes along that line to the most salient features only. SUGGESTIONS We will make the following suggestions to correspondents: It is of general interest to report— The marriages that occur in your community. Deaths that occur, especially of persons known outside of your community. The calling of a new pastor or the election of a new teacher. If your pastor preaches a special sermon, or says something of more than ordinary interest in his regular sermon. If a large social event takes place. If a club or group entertains. If someone is accidently hurt or killed. If an elopement takes place. Organization activities. New business organized or started. Fires. Community welfare meetings. Building of a new home. Building of a new church, school or hall. Other items of similar interest. Mention of persons who are "on the sick list" have become so numerous with the growth of circulation that we have arrived at the place where we must eliminate such mentions altogether as news, both in city and country and classify them with the funeral and death notices as paid matter. After this issue of the JOURNAL AND GUIDE persons who want to notify their friends through these columns that they are sick, may do so at two cents (2c.) a word in the column set aside for such matter. We have arrived at this decision because there is no other way to curtail a feature that is becoming so cumbersome that it is crowding out more other important matter. Our respondents and readers are asked to read and observe this new rule with reference to sick notices, and to observe as far as possible the other general suggestions that we have made. memory of my father and am proud of my descent from him; but I want to say that I also honor and rever the memory of your father, Allen Atkins. He was a good and true man and I congratulate you both on account of your descent from so good and also on account of your ascent in this you have risen from the conditions of poverty and obscurity in which you have so large and high place of influence in your race—and this you have done not self-seeking but by merit and by service to your race, your Church and your native State. And when I think of these conditions that you have overcome, and what you have accomplished, I feel that your achievement in life is greater than anything that an claim to have done. If all the men in your race and mine could understand race and feel towards each other as you do, there would, I think, be no troubles between the black man and the white. It was one of my own former students, Dr. W. M. Alexander, who on yesterday spoke to the Council and showed us how to maintain right relations between the two races. I rejoice in the fact that you both now free; for the emancipation of Negro race in this country meant also the emancipation of the white race; long as the incubus of slaver lesters slave-holder and the slave are both in bondage and both are inevitably kept back from their highest and best racial development." CO-WORKERS IN CHRISTIAN EDUCATION "The worth and the greatness alike of individuals and of races depend not upon the color of the skin but upon their culture, character, and service to mankind; and it is your lot and mine as educators of our young men and young women of our respective races to develop them in intelligence and moral character and capacity for efficient service that the white race and the black race shall respect and serve the other, and both together work, in a Christian spirit and in a Christian way, to make our country and our nation great not only commercially but morally and spiritually. Our father and mine were both alike, willing bond-servants of Jesus Christ, while here in the flesh. They are together now in a land where both are free; and I can but think, if they look down upon us from the glory land, they rejoice to see their sons associated together in the freedom and fellowship of this Council and in the work of Christian Education. Thanking, the Chairman for giving me time to say those words about my father and yours, and my express to you in this presence my high regard for you and the work you are doing, I pray God's blessing upon you and your people." Prolonged applause followed these remarks as Dr. Tillett and President Atkins returned to their seats; and the applause did not cease until President Atkins was called back to the platform by the chairman and requested to say something. His remarks, which were brief and delivered with modesty, were listened to with deep interest by the audience. He spoke as follows: Horn's ICE CREAM Never confuse HORN'S with ordinary Ice Cream—for it is, unquestionably, in a class by itself and maintains its enviable reputation by keeping up If you don't own a copy of the latest edition of the NEGRO YEAR BOOK You are late. You are behind the times. You don't have the latest facts and information that are indispensable to anyone desiring to be well-informed on the subjects treated in the Year Book which include every subject any Negro is interested in. The Negro Year Book is compiled by Dr. Monoe N. Work, Director of the Department of Research and Records, Tuskegee Institute. If you do just use the coupon below and it is yours. State was the small sum of two thousand dollars. Our General Assembly two years ago, appropriated nearly one million dollars for this same purpose, and we are hoping that our Legislature which is soon, so assembly will be actuated by a like spirit and make a like appropriation to carry forward the wise and liberal program under way for the education of Negroes in North Carolina. This spirit of liberty and good feeling is naturally the fruit of the fine and gracious sentiments expressed by Dean Tillett, and such a spirit is characteristic of the noble type of Southerner which he represents. It is this phase of this whole subject which I think should be most of all stressed at this time. To think of and bring out continually more and more the bright spots in our race relationships more bright and more lasting. "I want to say in conclusion that I appreciate very much the consideration of Dean Tillett which he has manifested this day in his presence toward the son of the man who was once owned by his father." In addition to the State Inter-racial Commission, there are about seventy county committees in Kentucky, most of them function, effectively. The method is that of frank conference and sympathetic co-operation. Swift Justice For Youthful Murderer Bamberg, S.

Sees A Great Future Another Year Of Successful Manufacturing And Merchan- dizing Passed. Memphis, Tenn. — "Hello, 1923! If you are as kind to the Plough Chemical Company as old 1922 everyone will be happy." This was the sentiment of the fifty two saleemnt attending the Fifth Annual Sale- ment Convention of the Plough Chemikal Company of Memphis. Tenn. For 1922 was in many respects the greatest year these men have ever enjoyed. It was a great year for business for the Plough Chemical Company. Sales were nearly double of those of 1921 and this despite the general feeling of pessimism that prevailed in most lines at the beginning of the year, the company was making mining strikes and recent fears that hell well would consume the cotton crop before it was picked. And the same men, who went out in the face of these unfavorable conditions determined through zeal, enthusiasm and hard work backed up by a line of well-advised goods that they knew were the best ever and made the sales of 1922 double those of 1921. They also determined to double those of 1921 and 1922. From all parts of the United States; they see and are in touch with conditions and all agree that they can do it. Some of the older men who have seen and helped the unprecedented growth of this organization are looking for greater development in 1923 than ever before. The Plough Chemical Company is now shipping the White Toilet Requisites and St Joseph's Benedictines to all parts of the world and have a large number handing their goods in the United States alone.

Colored Man Returned From Baltimore. For Murdering Farmer Makes Statement. Kinston, N. C. — Eludin the vigilance of the North Carolina police authorities who have scoured the state for him since September 29, Miller, a colored master wanted for the murder of county farmer (white) was brought back from Baltimore, Md., where he had fled, by Sheriff Taylor and Deputy Conway last week. The accused man's undoing came through his Baltimore landlord, who was in North Carolina on a charge of murder and informed the police of that city. Enroute from Maryland to North Carolina, Miller made a confession to the officers, it is alleged, in which he murdered, but claimed self-defense. He stated that he was sorry to have killed—the farmer, but that he was forced to do it in self preservation. He would have surrendered to the police sometime ago, he said, but for the fear of bodily harm, the county. The authorities are inclined to believe much of Miller's County.

C.—Lying in a hospital suffering from a bullet wound in the back, Miss Essie Beattie, (white) after being told by the hostess that he had suffered from a recover and persuaded to tell all she knew of how she came by her wounds, signed a confession repudiating her first story that she was shot and assaulted by Negroes and confessed that her assaulters were white and that John Ford, a companion, was murdered by white men and that the hostess told in an effort to shield the whites On the night of November 7, John Ford was shot and killed and Miss Beatie wounded at a lonely spot known as "Lover's Lane" near Gastonia. Miss Beatie reported to the police while she and two men manhandled her in a car in the lonely spot two Negroes approached, one tall and the other short; they robbed Mr. Kilillion of all of his money, shot and killed John Ford, and at the point of revolvers criminally outbred both of his wife and child. He was forced to stand and witness the unspeakable indignities. Upon Miss Beatie's story indication swept like wild fire through this section. Posses of armed citizens scoured hood and dale of North Carolina in search of the perpetrators of the murder. The worst crime in the annals of the State. Colored men were apprehended here and there and put through third degree methods in an effort to wring from them a confession of the crime. Months elapsed and no Negroes were found. Miss Beatie's story could be found. In the meanwhile, Coroner W. N. Davis was directing a烈暴 fire of questions at Miss Beatty. Discrepancies were found in her story, but it held up well until last week when she signed an affidavit repudiating the whole thing and confessing Robert Drice and John Carwell, father and uncle of one of the girls, respectively, have been arrested and are held on the charges of assault and murder.

LUKE 16:19-31 GOLDEN TEXT—Charge them that are rich in this present world, that they be not highminded, nor have their hope set on the earth, nor have their wealth, nor give us richly all things to enjoy. Tm. 1. 12-19. 1. The Rich Man's Lost Opportunity-Luke 19: 201. a parable most funiture. it is full of anthetes. it is also full of judgment reversed and wonderful surprises. Rev. Chase. L. Goodell, D. D. "It is perhaps the most Lord." William M. Taylor. A certain rich man (Dives) was clothed in purple and fine linen, the same lived in luxury and spindler daily. The mourners morsels of fainted calf, and honey, and figs, and dates, and d pomeragents, and homes, and homes, and homes, and homes, make up the feast, accompanied with riddles, and jokes that would excavate bursts of music. T. Dewitt Talmage. A beguilezur full of solves lav "Vension and partridge, delicate morsels of fatted calf, and honey, and figs, and data, and fish that only two hours ago gilded in the lake, make the fish that only two hours ago riddles, and jokes that evoke, roaring laughter, with occasional bursts of music." - T. Perry Garat-Lazarus full of lares at the gate of Dives. The rich man cared whether the poor man got the crumbs from neglected Lazarus, the begged dog, dams came and linked the begged's sore's. He gave money, and The things money can buy, But it good, too, to check up now and then. And make sure you haven't lost. The things that money cannot buy-Anon. And Lazarus in the World to Come. v. 22-31. It came to pass that Dives and Lazarus both died. "It happens that Death passes this way, by starvation to the bogger, and by Surfell to the man," Charles L. Goodell, D. D. The citizen critic into Abraham's bosom "A Jewish idea of paradise, a place of peaceful rest, like that of the brave brunt."South. Dives opened his eyes to hell. "He opened his eyes to the terrible picture of the rich man's torments solemnly uses of the necessary end of a selfish such as his. The soul that cannot see nor find satisfaction even here; but when he cannot be behind it cannot be a torture."(Maclear) There is bitter irony in this parable Lazarus in life begged for the crumbs from Dives' table; in death Dives begs Abraham to let Lazarus come to him and dip his finger in water and cool his (Dives') tongue. Death fixes destiny. God makes distinction between men; his distinctions are natural, not artificial. Wicked men and good men cannot dwell together in the life to come. An impassable gulf divides them. Neither color nor culture, but character makes destiny inevitable and inescapable and unchangeable. "What was the ladder by which Dives went down to hell? He cared for the body prodigal in all those expenses which ministered to appetite and earthly pleasures, but oh! what a mistr in the offices of devotion and works of mercy and ministries of charity, which are the delight and life of the soul." Bishop Edward R. Delles. 3. The Right Uses of Wealth. "Christ would not forbid the use of money for pleasure, but only for selfish pleasure. He did not rebuke Dives for his festening, his fine clothes and luxurious house, but for the hunger and sickness and sickness of Lazarus. Christ warns all his childre's to live happily, but he knows there is no happiness apart from helping others to be happy." Money is not the root of all evil, as many say, but the love of money. 1 Tim. 6: 17. Money is all right when used properly; it is wicked to squander money or to spend it only to trustify selfish desires; and it is also an evil. I heard my. Russell: Conwell says, "A lot of foolish sentimentality has been written and spoken on the subject of money." "You hear it said. No Christian has a right to get rich." Any Christian who has a chance to get rich, and does not living up to his full duty." Money is power-power to do good. If a man doing his duty who limits his prefer to do good? "The money you hoard impoverishes you. But the money you give away—it blesses old age like the cool shade of a tree. I can get a thrill of delight at any time by calling up the memory. I nearly feels thousand men whose collections, training, and doctors have helped to provide. That is the kind of fortune for a man to lay up if he wants a delightful and exciting old age. A fortune in folks: money in men. BRIGGS SOGRAMS Prosperity has proved the undoing of many man. A life lived only for self means is miserable eternity. "Money is the acid test of religion." Our eternal status is going to be heavily debased by our attitude towards makin' Mt. 26.

When Hannah calls early she is up to something and I reckon being a pal for life, I hadn't order play sleep. Then too, she is a girl and I should be up first any way." And Henry rolled out of the blankets and dressed himself in the ten minutes allowed him by rule between himself and his next door neighbor. "We will never keep each other waiting," they had promised six years before, "no not longer than ten minutes, for business folk must count the time Hannah, and you know what we plan to do."

"So much to do before school this morning you'll have to make it short and we'll talk on our way to school." Bang, went the window and soon another head came up over the palling. "I've been thinking Pal, we aren't twins, we are both twelve and why can't we earn a million; I read about a man that made up his mind he million when he was a boy and did it all, and was white to boot, but you are a boy and that will make up for the man part, if it is just so necessary to the business."

We also received numerous answers from out-of-town readers, all of which shows the great interest in the feature, but as the prizes consist only of orders for merchandise on Church street merchants advertising under this particular group, they will be of no particular value to out-of-town persons unless they do their shopping by mail or come to town for that purpose.

Bag for $7.10 Unpublished History of Football and Baseball As football and baseball last year received more support and enthusiasm than at any time in their history, it will further and interest to the present generation of sport deteores of these two great major pastimes of the United States's histories of the old Columbia Athletics Football Club and the Red Stockings The locals seriously threatened Shaw's goal when Jackson intercepted, a pass and carried the ball to Shaw's 15 yard line, but here they were held for downs and the college boys punted out of danger. In this game another exhibition of Jackson, Moorman, Merritt, Johnson defensive was displayed. John McQueen, Leigh McQueen and "Plug". Robinson were stars in the line. Shaw raised havoc with Aeolians second team. It was not until this bunch By J. M. HARRISON) Former Star of Columbia and Howard PERSONEL OF BOTH ORGANIZATIONS The writer is not old enough to recall the exact time of the organization of the Red Stockings, but as to the Columbia team, his memory is still keen. Every old timer in the city knows that the old Red Stockings was one of the best and most colored teams in the country, the old Columbia Giants, the Richmond Stonewalls, the richaries of the time when they met the best colored teams of the country and made good accounts. When the writer as a kid, peeping through knot holes in the old Gymnasium park, which was then located or Princess Anne avenue, opposite Waste street, or perching on the precarious trees overlooking it or high in the belfhouses of theSION College, he was worshipfully impressed with this great machine and longed for the day when he would reach manhood and play on it. The following names are some of those made famous for the Reds: "Bub" Bub, Parker, Parker, Wash, Stewart, Ed, Dobsey, Sydney Fentress, "Devil" McCleannan, Ike McCoy, Walter Lawrence, "Snide" Moseley, (whose funeral occurred last week) and many others. George Cason, the Cason brothers and Tom Wright, the late comers who held up the tradition and fame of this famous team. "A Ghost Between," another big Broadway success of last season and now playing in Chicago under the title of "The Twist," with Arthur Byron, Hale Hamilton and other celebrated artists in the cast, will appear at the Attucks Theatre next week. The play is a delightfully truthful depiction of a widow's pelimma. Question-What would you do if a ghost stood between you and the only one you wanted? This is all brought out in the play and in a manner to shock, mystify and particularly to amuse the audience. Miss Evelyn Ellis will be the charming little widow, while Berrington Carter, plays the rising young surgeon; Mr. Edward Brown, that of the friend and champion lightweight professional. Then, too, Addison Carey has a part suited to his accomplishments. The company is delighted with the bill and believes that it will give the greatest pleasure to all who see it. The management of the Attucks Thunderbird will certainly believe that the best of plays is what the patrons want and in view of that LEGAL NOTICES VIRGINIA: IN THE CLERKS' OFFICE ON THE 2ND DAY OF JANUARY, 1922 William M.

WHEN THE REDS TOOK YOUNG BLOOD It was while I was still in short pants that I organized in Bute street a nine called the St. Clairs. We had defeated every local team in the city with the exception of the Reds. There were many people who believed that we could give them a run for their money, and interest became so great that a game was arranged between us, the stake being the winner the game received. Excitement was at a fever. The game came off. The St. Clairs had nothing but youth, nerve and determination. It was plainly another case of David and Goliath. The team at that time as I recall was: "Brist" Smith, catcher; Mills center; Beckett, third; Butts, second; Parker right field; A. Harrison, left field; Ed. Nottingham, left field Craig, short stop, and I held the fort as pitcher. Dobsey, Moseley and "Nap" Booker, held enviable reputations as "Babe" Ruths for slugging but on this occasion I "felt" out each man and had them at my mercy until being with two at the score standing. 6. With men on bases, who had reached there on account of bases on balls, mixed with errors, Parker hit an easy fly to left. Alton Harrison either, being excited by the hostile crowd or nervous, dropped the ball, ending the game with three pairs of Red legs crossing the rubber before he recovered it. That error cost us the game, but we asked for another show in which public opinion backed us, and the next game we beat them overwhelm-ly after this defeat, Smith, Butts, and Joint, joined them, and later piloted them as captains. I was at this period that young blood began to be infused in the Reds who were slipping on account of age.—To be continued next week. belief they have hit upon "A Ghost Between" for next week, believing it to be a play well calculated to give satisfaction to each and every patron. The play is hilarious, tragic, in fact, it runs the gamut of human emotions and with the sweet and charming little Evelyn Bills in a part suited to her and a cast of super-excellence, including Edna Scottron, Barrington Carter, S. Edward Brown, Addison Carey and others, it is bound to be a big hit. Question—What would you do if a ghost stood between you and the one you wanted most. A Review of Football Activities of Local Independent Clubs For Season 1922 A Review of Football Activities of Local Independent Clubs For Season 1922 (By W. A. JOHNSON, JR.) The football season opened in Norfolk with the Norfolk A. C.'s and the Columbia Athletics in the first encounter, taking independents. The game resulted in a 0-0 score after an hour of hard and loose playing. This game proved the A. C.'s to be what it was thought they were. The teams appeared to be equally matched, the Norfolk Athletics having the edge on offensive work and the Columbus having a slight edge on the defensive. The next clash was between the Athletics and the Y. M. C. A. a squad from Port News. In this game the Norfolk boys were outplayed in every department. The receiving of passes and the broken field running of Taylor of the "Y" was the feature of the game, while Gordon of the N. A. C., looked best for them. The encounter ended 14-0 with Newport News on the long end. The Norfolk Athletics then went to Richmond and met the Adelphians of that city. This game resulted in a in favor of the Richmond club. In a return game at Norfolk the Adelphians repeated the same feat and won out again, the Norfolk team playing worse in this game than any previous ones for the season. The Columbians met their first set at the hands of the Norfolk Athletics and their first defeat was administered by the Newport News "Y" by a score of 20-0. In each game the work of Billups at end and Lee at tackle were the main features. The Aeolians went out of their class when they went to Richmond to play the Capitol City boys; however, this was a game replete with the two in spite of the unevenness of the two evens. The work of Brown, end; Mochair, half back; Moorman, half back; Moorman, full back; Johnson, quarter and half guard, stood out. Jordan started off bad on end, but found himself when put back in guard. Merritte Johnson and Brown proved sensations when came to spectacular tackling and Johnson and Moorman were phenomenal on closing up formations and advancing the. The largest gains for the year by the Aeolians were made against the Adelphians by Moorman and Jackson one for 45 yards and the other for 37 yards. The game ended with a large score against the Aeolians. The next game of the Aeolian Athletic Club was with the Lincoln Athletic Club. This game was simply rotten. The Norfolk boys lost themselves and Lincoln won the game by the score of 12-7. In the Aeolian-Shaw game the locals held the visitors scoreless for two quarters and apparently the game would have ended, in a 0-0 score, but "bang" the Aeolians went up in the "air" and Shaw walked away with the game to the tune of 35-0. The first half of that game was one of the best seen on the local gridiron. ATTUCKS One Week MON.

A. football club, of Portsmouth, fronted the most successful ful season last year. They were recognized as the undisputed champions of Tidewater. The team made a creditable showing under the leadership of their captain and with the financial backing of Rev. Patterson, to whom too much praise cannot be given. The team held its banquet at the Y. M. A. A. Auditorium January 8, at which time J. R. Sillis was re-elected captain to lead the squad again this year. A string of victories, two ties and one defeat sums up the activities for the season of 1922. The clubs that went down before the "Y." were Norcom High 2-0, B. T. High 9-7; Virginal All-stars, Norfolk, 16-0; Lincoln, of Berkley, 7-0. The first tie was with the Monarchs of Norfolk, which score was 6-6; but through an error, it was published as 7-6, giving the victory to the Monarchs, Norfolk, 6-6, was the correct score. We are acknowledging for the benefit of the fans who we thank for their hearty support. The next game was with the strong Acolians, which also resulted in a 6-4 score. The previous year the two clubs played under different names. The Acolians defeated and the "Y" as the Blues. The Blues fered a 43-0 defeat at the hands of the Attucks that year. The one defeat suffered by the Y. M. team last season was administered Huntington High, of Newport New York, there was too much lockstep in this encounter for the Portsmouth boys. V. Todd, at left end, was a sensation in this game in his marvelous defensive work. The kicking of left tackle, J. Curtis, brought "Y" hope on several occasions. Scott, at right guard, was a power. He was always capable of throwing his man for twelve or thirteen yards, Bailey, the lanky center, played the game. E. Colley, played right guard to perfection. W. Wright, at right tackle, was a stellar player. Red Arrington, and broke up every play directed toward his position. L. Arrington ploughed through like a Ford tractor. R. C. Clapp played a wonder game at full back, and W. Miller, "the touch down kings, gained one-half of the 'Ys' points against the Lincoln's. Captain Sills, played back, was a trouble maker to all adversaries. He lead the light for his team that a captain should lead. He captained the team and assisted in the coaching as well. J. Laitman; J. Towns, W. Mason, A. Ross, M. Wilkin, W. Blow, W. Savage, J. Vincent, E. Elliott, C. Adams, added much to the effectiveness of the team. All of the former members have pledged to report for spring practice. He has been elected coach-business manager. University of North-western university, acted linesman throughout the season. E. Joyce, Morehouse; umpire. "Whirlwind" Johnson To Captain "Lions" Philadelphia, Pa.—At the annual December election of football manager at Lincoln University John V. Sterrett, of Harrisonburg was elected to succeed L. E. Redmond as manager for 1923. Sterrett is the third position to manage Lincoln's football since he was gridron transactions have passed thousand dollar mark. It was Sterrett's predecessor, a student of Lincoln, who first put the Lincoln-Howard battle on a classic plane by stagging in the "city of Philadelphia in 1919." (In that year neither Lincoln nor Howard had played the game in a big way away from their own campuses.) Besides the honor which came to Sterrett, sixteen of the Lincoln "cubs" were awarded L's. (The basis of awarding football L's at Lincoln at present—and one is not altogether satisfactory—is participation Turkey Day Classic.) Their names for Boston, Cotton, capt.; Skinner, "Sty" Wood, Biggs, Morgan, Carter, Lancaster, Miles, A. Wilson, "Whirlwind" (R. W), Byrd, Goodman, Poindexter, Lee, Byrd, Crudup, and Jacques. Plans and schedules are now being arranged for the ensuing year. Robert Walter Johnson, dubbed "Whirlwind" on account of his wild, streaming mane and furious whirling in battle, has been elected captain of the Lincoln Squad for 1923. He has a flashy record. As "Bill Shakespeare would put it—"Whirlwind Johnson has all the high additions of mighty Achilles and experiences smacking richer than all the host of Greekish vallants. He has played against Morehouse, Wilberforce, Union, Howard, Hampton, West Virgin Collegiate, and the little fellows. Tennis he plays well. Baseball is also his tall suit. Won his letters on the baseball varsity of Lincoln and led the squad in batting averages. He is twenty-two, married and tips his fathers at cappes. He capped 1922 with a 1022 "Whirlwind" point was his defense. During the past football season, of Lincoln's twenty-three touchdowns Johnson scored six—two being made against West Virginia Collegiate Institute at Charleston, W. Va. Against St. Paul, who defeated Union, he gained 175 yards of territory. During the mid-season, when the Lion squad was smitted with a pair, of defeats and dissension was kindling, it was "Whirlwind" who united the backfield—manifestly the weakest portion of the Lion eleven. Five days before the classic struggle he had been confined to bed with Ia- 4° Rheumatism Apply Sloan lation of b sues.

Whirlwind was great wildcats in clean taciturn national Panthers and what are his other "additions"? Well, he never plays with headgear, never wears shoulder pads, and never was put out of a game. He defies calamity and disdains superstition by wearing on his Jersey the traditional 12. He is the Lincoln captain and they call him "Whirlwind." Williams' Chapel Church, Rev. C. C.
