BAGNALL, director of Branches of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, New York. GEORGE W. HARRIS, a member of the Board of Aldermen of New York City and editor of the "New York News." New York City, Feb. 2—Charging Marcus Garvey and his Universal Negro Improvement Association with having done much to "stimulate the violent temper of a dangerous element" of "Negro criminals and potential murderers, both foreign and American born, who are moved and actuated by intense hatred against the white race," eight prominent colored citizens, who are leaders in their respective fields of activity have addressed a letter to United States Attorney General Harry M. Daugherty, filing serious charges against the Garvey movement, and calling upon the attorney general as "the chief law enforcement officer of the nation," to make a sweeping investigation. Sensational Charges The charges laid against Garvey and his followers are of the most sensational character. Everything from mere intimidation to murder is hinted at in the letter, which covers five closely type written pages. Following close upon the assassination of J. W. H. Eason, a former Garvey organizer, who was shot and killed recently as he was leaving a church in New Orleans after denouncing Garvey, and coming just a few days before Garvey's trial in Federal Court upon charges of using the United States mails to defraud, in connection with his defunct Black Star steamship line, the letter to Mr. Daugherty which was given to the press today, created a sensation in New York. The letter to Mr. Daugherty follows: can born, who are moved and actuated by intense hatred against the white race. These undesirables continually proclaim that all white people are enemies to the Negro. They have become so fanatical that they have threatened and attempted the death of their opponents, actually as JOURNAL AND GUIDE UNITED CHARITIES FUND Last Week's Appeal Touched New York Lady Who Sends $5.00 To Help Poor. The announcement in last week's issue of the JOURNA LAND GUIDE that the paper would accept contributions for the destitute-poor of the city, the funds to be disbursed thru United Colored Charities, brought a response from a lady residing in New York City, who sent $5.00 as her contribution to the cause. In sending her contribution, Mrs. Frances Anderson, who lives at 410 Riverside Drive, wrote: "In reading your paper of the 27th, inst., I see that you are making an appeal for aid for the needy families of your city. I am sending $5.00, which I hope will help some needy family of my race." "Hoping your appeal will touch many hearts, as it has mine, Iam, "Yours truly, "FRANCES A. ANDERSON." Now we would like to be able to report next week numerous contributions of a like amount, or any amount indeed, to keep up the good work Mrs. Anderson has started. Hundreds of poor people in Norfolk are without work jobs and without food. Of them are little children. United Charities do not the funds to meet the needs of even the most urgent cases.

POTENTIAL MURDERERS "As the chief law enforcement officer of the Nation, we wish to call your attention to a heretofore unconsidered menace to harmonious race relationships. There are in our midst certain Negro criminals and potential murderers, both foreign and Ameri- COLORED WOMAN DEEDS FARM TO DISABLED VETS Provides In Will That $10,000 Insurance Obtained Upon The Death Of Son Go To The Red Cross Upon Her Death. HER SON A VETERAN; WISHES TO AID OTHERS Moved by unaltering gratefulness to the American Red Cross for its untiring efforts in securing for her through a maze of red tape the settlement of a $10,000 insurance claim upon the death of her son, a world war veteran, and feeling only as a mother can, the sad plight of many disabled vets, Mrs. Many, Reynolds, 1007 Smith street, directed in her will that a farm in North Carolina for which she holds the deed be sold upon her death and the proceeds given to the Red Cross for the benefit of disabled world war veterans in the county in which the farm is located. This news was made known to the Red Cross a few day ago when the father of the dead soldier informed med Miss Irene V White, senior charge, will be written just made will deeding a farm in North Carolina to disabled war veterans. Mrs. Reynolds' son by a former marriage, Grover Jernigan, was discharged from the service March 25, 1919 and died from tuberculosis one year later. His mother applied for his army insurance but was informed that the policy had been voided through elapse of premiums since her son left the army. She put the matter up to the Red Cross authorities who after unceasing efforts discovered a letter in the mother's possession written to her by her son while in the army complaining of sickness, the symptoms of which corresponded with those discovered by several army physicians at Public Health Service Hospitals where he had received treat- "FRANCES A.

"The movement known as the Universal Negro Improvement Association has done much to stress the need of this dangerous element. Its" "president and moving spirit is one Marcus Garvey, an unscrupulous demagogue who has ceaselessly and assiduously sought to spread among Negroes distruct and hatred of all white people. The official organ of the U. N. I. A., "The Negro World," of which Marcus Garvey is Managing Editor, sedulously and continually seeks to arouse ill-feeling between the races. Evidence has also been presented of an apparent alliance of Garvey with the Ku Klux Klan. "An erroneous conception held by many is that Negroes try to look high and holy criminals. The truth is that the great majority of Negroes are bitterly opposed to all criminals and especially those of their own race, because they know that such criminals will cause increased discrimination against themselves. IN. SEARCH OF EASY MONEY. "The U. N. I. A. is composed chiefly of the most primitive and ignorant element of West Indian and American Negroes. The so-called respectable element of the movement are largely ministers without churches, physicians without patients, lawyers without clients and publishers without readers, who are the branch of the white community. In short, this organization is composed in the main of Negro sharks and ignorant Negro fanatics. "This organization and its fundamental laws encourage violence. In its constitution there is an article prohibiting office holding by a convicted criminal, except such crime is committed in the interest of the U. N. I. A. Marcus Garvey is intolerant of free speech when it is exercised in criticism of him and his movement, his followers seeking to prevent such by threats and violence. Striking proof of the truth of this assertion is found in the following cases: Continued on Page Four SENTENCED TO DIE WHILE SOLDIERS STAND GUARD Jim Miller Must Die In Electric Chair March 9th For Killing Lenoir County Farmer; Surrounded By Guards At Trial. SELF-DEFENSE-PLEA IGNORED BY JURY Kinston, N. C.—The presence of three squads of state militia, a quick verdict of murder in the first degree followed by an immediate sentence of death in the electric chair, very probably served to prevent a demonstration of violence at the conclusion of the trial of Jim Miller here last week, charged with the murder of John Sutton (white) a Lenoir county farmer. Miller killed the farmer in September and sled to Baltimore where he was arrested two weeks ago upon information furnished by his landlord, who gained his boarder's confidence, learned that he was a fugitive from North Carolina and so infiltrated the authorities of Baltimore. He was returned to Lenoir county and held in a secret lock-up until the day of his trial. The accused admitted the killing, but pleaded self-defense. He said that he shot Mr. Sutton in a quarrel when he (Sutton) threatened him with a knife. There were no eye witnesses to the shooting. The authorities had been informed that if a verdict carrying a lesser punishment than death was returned against Miller the prisoner would be lynched. Acting upon this hint the solicitor requested the governor to send state troops to guard the man during the trial. A verdict of guilty was a foregone conclusion before the trial began, however, it was necessary for soldiers to guard the man's life until he might hear the sentence passed. He will be executed March 9. NEW MT. HERMON BAPTIST TEMPLE PORTSMOUTH, RECENTLY DEDICATED It was announced in the columns of this newspaper in last week's issue that, Dr. C. S. Brown, Wintown, N.C. had gone to New York to sail for England. That was an error. Dr. Brown went to New York to arrive for the Lott Carey delegates to go to Stockholm to attend the World's Baptist Congress in July next. He arranged for the eight delegates to leave on the 30th of June on the steamer "Olympic" for Stockholm over the Swedish Line. The round trip fare on the above named steamer is $410 and the denomination hopes that many Negro delegates will go to this meeting. Dr. Brown stands ready to render whatever assistance he can to anyone planning to go. He cautions, however, that those who think they must make reservations early. HAD COLORED WOMAN HID UNDER HIS BED HAD COLORED WOMAN HID UNDER HIS BED High State Official Resigned When Clandestine Relations Are Disclosed. (Special to Journal and Guide) Raleigh, N. C., Feb. 1—One of the biggest scandals ever visited upon this state was released late Sunday night when police officers visited the apartments of Col. A. D. Watts, commissioner of revenue for the state, and discovered there a young colored woman, whom the colonel concealed under a couch in his rooms when the officers arrived. The woman in question came here from Statesville, Col. Watts' home town, and the police suspected that she and the state officer were carrying on illicit relations characterized by the police. Immediately after his arrest the commissioner admitted his relations with the colored woman and tendered his resignation to Governor Morrison. It was accepted by the governor at once. Col. Alston D. Watts has for forty years been a "wheel horse" in Democratic politics in North Carolina. He has taken an important part in every strenuous campaign during that time and has held many important public offices. He is a personal friend and political associate of Gov. Morrison. In the heated campaign to disfranchise the Negro vote in North Carolina Col. Watts covered the state, denouncing the Negro and painting sordid pictures of "social equality" and "Negro domination." The affair has stirred both races in the state to resentment and moved the thinking people to shame. Many of the leading Democratic papers have severely condemned Col. Watts, while others have sought to minimize his offense as being merely a "personal-affair." At a joint session of ministers of every denomination in the city of Norfolk, it was decided to get behind a big mass meeting to be held the second Sunday in February in order to try to save the Y. M. G. A. to the colored men and boys of this community. The place, speaker and hour will be named at a very early date. So urgent is the need that complete arrangements have to be announced at the churches, by placards and in next week's issue of this paper. YOUNG PEOPLE ELOPE AND MARRY Salem, Va., Jan.-Miss.

EXPOSED AND DENOUNCED IN CHARGES TO U. S. ATTORNEY HARVEY N. JOHNSON Architect, who designed the building Architect, who designed the building. One of the most modernly designed and appointed church edifices in Tidewater Virginia is the new M. Hermon Baptist Temple, Portsmouth which has just been completed and dedicated with approving companies. The handsome edifice, which is shown above, was built and furnished, including organ, for $1,000.00. The work of construction was begun in the spring of 1921, and was supervised by a committee of architects. No construction was employed. The plans were designed by Harvey N. Johnson, young colored architect, whose portrait is also shown above. The structure is built of brown pressed brick, with stone trimmings, and the most exquisite cathedral art glass. Practically all of the work on the building was done by colored mechanics. The art glass was furnished installed by H. Oomhundro, of Norfolk. The building has all modern equipment and will seat comfortably nine hundred persons. When the congregation started the erection of their new edifice, they were worshipping in the small old fashioned frame structure seen at the extreme left of the picture. Under the leadership of Dr. Jones, they raised the building fund. During the course of construction they raised an additional $9,000, leaving them with a debt of only about $15,000 which they expect to pay off in a few years. the pastor and congregation feel justly proud of their achievement and during the dedicatory exercises received congratulations from numerous churches and friends, white and colored. 73 GRADUATE FROM 3 GRADED SCHOOLS John T. West, Lott Carey And S. C. Armstrong Schools Jointly Hold Commencement Exercises. Lott Carey, S. C. Armstrong and John T. West schools held jointly their mid-year commencement exercises at the Booker T. Washington high school auditorium Wednesday afternoon before an overflowing audience of students, teachers, parents and friends. Seventy-three diplomas were awarded, twenty-five to the graduating class of students, school for graduates to John T. West graduates and thirty-three to the finishing class of Lott Carey school. Mrs. N. M. Osborne, a member of the school board, delivered the address to the graduates, being the first member of the board to address a colored graduating class for several years. In a pleasing talk Mrs. Osborne urged the students to personal cleanliness and cleanness in character. She strongly emphasized the completion to admonished the graduates to always finish what has been assigned to them to do. She took occasion to stress the great importance of thrift, urging the students to cultivate in their youth the habit of never spending more than they earn. Her talk was very practical and contained suggestions of immeasurable value to a graduating class, and incidentally, to all who wanted it. (Continued on Page Four) SUBSCRIPTION PRICE $2.00 PER YEAR Representative Gathering Of Fair Promoters and Managers To Hold First Meeting Here. Dr. John H. Love, Raleigh, N. C., president of the National Association of Colored Fairs, has issued a call for the first annual meeting of the Association to be held at Norfolk, Va., February 22nd. The Association was organized last August at Norfolk during the meeting of the National Negro Business League, with the idea of a closer cooperation of the Colored Fair Associations, Horse Show Associations and owners of Amusement Parks and Beaches, which for the present will compose its membership. Dr. Love states that there is quite a bit of work to be done at the first annual meeting towards completing the policy of the Association, adopting constitutive and administrative formulating whereby the fairs can be operated on different circuits, having consecutive dates, in order to minimize the cost of operation and at the same time increase the quality of free amusement attractions and induce th national exhibitors of merchandise, farm and agricultural exhibits, to place their wares on exhibition at the colored fairs. This will allow to such wide differences in the dates on which the colored fairs have been held and the cost of transportation and lay-offs. Then there is the question of booking the colored free amusement attractions and encouraging the organization of colored carnival companies and concessionaires to operate at the colored fairs and the appropriate programs, which also include addresses by several well informed and experienced men on subjects that pertain to the various departments connected with the operating of fairs. Ad Contest Grows In Interest Weekly That the ad misspelled word contest conducted by the JOURNAL AND GUIDE is growing in popularity is attested by the hundreds of replies received weekly. The prizes were won this week by W. Francis Taylor, Jr., 1228 Chapel street, and Mr. John Lewis, 1218 Church street. Many others qualified in so far as detecting the errors goes but could not be adjudged prize winner because the errors received too late.

SENATOR CAPPER'S MARRIAGE BILL MEETS OPPOSITION Some Say It Is An Invasion Of States' Rights. Others Hold That It Will Increase Immorality And Congest Courts. WOULD LEAVE MATTER TO STATE REGULATION Washington, D. C.—Opponents of the Caper uniform marriage bill, introduced in Congress by Senator Arthur Capper, Republican, of Kansas, last week, point out that if the bill were enacted into law and a constitutional amendment should be adopted, the inevitable result will be a further congestion of the United States District courts. Like the Volstead act, it would lead to a greater contempt of law. It is a greater encroachment upon states' rights than the anti-lynchning bill. Its provisions prohibiting inter-racial marriages would be conducive to greater immorality and on its face would be the placing of a brand of racialism in the law. The whole subject can be better dealt with by the several states. Senator Capper is a member of the Board of Directors of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The bill provides for uniform regulation of marriage and divorce, which, among other things, would prohibit inter-racial marriages. He also introduced a joint resolution proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States, delegating to Congress the power to make uniform laws on the subject. PROVISIONS OF BILL The proposed marriage and divorces bill contains thirty-eight sections. Under its provisions, application for a marriage license must be made by one of the parties two weeks before issuance and both parties must file certificates as to their mental and physical condition; the ages at which boys and girls may marry with the consent of their parents is fixed at 16 years for girls and 18 for boys; without the consent of their parents, boys may marry at 21 and girls at 18. Marriage of feeble-minded persons and between Negroes and whites and Mongolians and whites is prohibited. MISS JOHNSON TO SPEAK AT FIRST U. P. CHURCH Miss Kathryn M. Johnson, of Brooklyn, N.

After the impressive order of service had been observed, Prof. W. E. Riddick, principal of the school, in a few well chosen words introduced theRev. Newsome used as the subject of his sermon "What Are You Worth?" In a sermon that was eloquent for its simplicity and logic, he impressed upon the class and his hearers, in general, that it was the impure duty of each to be of the greatest possessions to their homes, the community, and last, but by no means least, to their God. The music rendered by the choir on this occasion was excellent and was favorably commented on by all, which followed the sermon, a rising vote of thanks was tendered the pastor for the excellent sermon and the choir for the music. The presentation to the pastor was made by Miss Beatrice Robinson, 23, and made by Newsome, 24. Newsome predicted a brilliant future for the class and again exhorted them to be of greatest worth to all. The mid-winter class numbers 23. PUBLIC CLASS IN PSYCHOLOGY The class in General Psychology met in the auditorium of the I. C. Norcom high school on last Friday evening with Prof. Miles W. Connor, an assistant professor of the school. After a review of the previous lesson, "The Physiological Part of Psychology," the class began the discussion of the lesson for the day, "The Value of Study of Sense Organs as an Introduction to Psychology." A very interesting paper on the subject was read by Miss Robinson, of Norfolk, after which the subject was discussed generally by the class. Because of his personality and knowledge, he has created so much interest in the work that each week finds a new member added to the roll. Last week several high school pupils visited the class. The work of the class this year promises to eclipse the work of last year because the student-teachers are realizing more and more the value of a knowledge of the subject to their class. The text book being used by the class is, "Elements of Human Psychology," by Warren, and the subjects already touched on and which were discussed are, "Auto-Augestation." Persons who are interested in the subject are cordially invited to join which meets every Friday evening from 8 o'clock in the Norcom auditorium. Teachers' Association Meet At High School Portsmouth Teachers' Association met in the auditorium of the Norcom building on last Wednesday evening at 7:30.

E. Riddick. The papers were read the president called or questions on them and one, which by Mrs. Lightner, which was, "Are having had the assistance of an expert, prepared to give these tests to the best advantage?" brought forth a discussion. Opinion seemed about it. The meeting was then turned over to the critic, Miss M. Estelle Thompson, who, after commending the speakers for the excellent work done the presentation of the paper, gave a brief resume of the subject. In reply to the questions asked by Mrs. Lightner, the critic read references from Strayer and Bennett. Pts. Jacox and Webb, of the B. T. W. School, Norfolk, were present and made brief, but interesting addresses. The next meeting of the Association will be held on February 16th, at which meeting the subject of "Silent Reading," will be discussed.

B. Taft. The things we must remember: Christian intelligence is the oil that lubricates the wheel of progress. Through this intelligence we learn to love all, envy no Race or Races. We should seek the association of the better element of manhood. We should realize the fact that we owe the coming generations a foundation, upon which they must build their progress. Seek the best of manhood and womanhood as our leaders, confide in them and demand them to perform their housekeeping diligently. We can organize own operate and support our own enterprises. Honesty and cooperation will push my Race to success. Have faith! What man can do, we can do. By W. P. Norcott The very first thing the colored people should do to promote unity and progress is themselves. They should know that, they are born just as other people, they should try and make the environments of their children the very best. They should teach their children the principles should be their ideals instead of desiring of dressing and dollars. The leaders should teach the people their duties to their fellow men. They should take every advantage to make them self-supporting, by raising every article of food, they have an opportunity. By Rev. J. S. Shaw By M. Ethel Harris First: I would like to suggest that Education should have the uppermost consideration; Fireside training, heart cultivation and skillful knowledge should be taught our children. Secondly: A general feeling of loving kindness, helpfulness, support for our own enterprises, encouragement to our professions, administer to give our students independence along all lines work, have homes, buy land, cultivate and beautify the same. Attend your own household duties. Fourth: Men respect your women. A race can only rise as high as its ideals.

A record of all, the following resolution which passed in the agents meeting, should be included in this report.

That it is published in the press that these Negro agents are selected by Dr. B. W. Kilgore, Mr. C. R. Hudson and their assistants after they have looked well into their past lives and searched their record, to learn of their fitness for the responsibilities devolving upon them. They are equipped and hold their own, they are employed and continue to work, being paid by the State, United States and the county in which they work. That they are instructed as to what they should do and. Their plans must be presented to headquarters for approval and all their activities must be reported each week. That to facilitate the working of their plans, they hold meetings to which the whites are welcome if they care to to go, and organize them to care to the whites, whether they be land owners or tenants for the purpose of teaching them not on- nat to do to make the community better in which they live but HOW to do it the best way by demonstration, by doing the thing. nat the intelligence of these men to faith in themselves and their people. They have faith in the possibilities of the South and confidence in the majority of the white people. They are not time servers, but are here to help everybody in every way. Three hundred and sixty-five people of the white folks, their sympathy, and encouragement, and be it further resolved: That we indignantly resent any accusation, imputation, insinuation or look that would seem to lay at our feet a charge that we would not organize or our organizing our folks against the whites in our dear NORTH STATE. That we deplore crime lawlessness everywhere and at all times and stand ready to do so. We order and the good of North Carolina. (Sigged). C. S. Mitchell.

Which verifies the fact that high fliers have dry spirits. The most intricate puzzles, it is said, we?2 probably originated by men of leisure. The same may be said of possible solutions. The French are finding that it is easier to invade the industrial districts of Germany than to constrain the Germans to work the industries. Military occupation of alien territory always breeds hatred and strife and perhaps war of desperation, the most heartless of all wars. France wants her pound of flesh, and should have it, but it begins to look as if she cannot get it without blood. The colored population of Norfolk is now some 55,868 souls, and they are all live souls, hustling all of the time to better their own condition and that of Norfolk, in which they have an honest pride, as their splendid homes, churches, schools, business enterprises and uplift organizations show. We have more Negro citizens in Norfolk than any other city in Virginia, and the industrial development of the Norfolk district promises to give us in a few years not only the largest but the most intelligent and wealthy Negro population in the country. Persons who send the JOURNAL AND GUIDE write-ups of themselves or have their press agents send such write-ups, telling how wonderfully great they are, and at the same time putting over a lot of veiled advertising for something or other in which they are interested, are referred to our advertising manager. The day has passed—gone forever—when this newspaper can be buncoed in that manner. We have our own ideas about the great and near-great and will exploit them at our own expense whenever we feel that our readers will be benefited by our doing so. It is not proper that our race should forget "Emancipation Day," but it is about time that we cease using the day to rehearse the drama of the striking of the shackles from the slaves, and use it instead, to draw attention to some of the shackles that still enslave us. Mr. W. P. Evans, in an Emancipation Day address at Sanford, N. C., struck out along that line when he declared: "We have learned that emancipation means to free one, to cut loose, to liberate, but were I to recite some of the characteristics of the Negro people, the startling fact would be revealed that 10,000,000 people are still fettered by chains tightened by their own hands." All of us know what those chains are, so it is unnecessary to enumerate here. Norfolk's Young Women's Christain Association (white) launched last Monday a campaign to raise $25,000.00, an amount necessary to complete its budget. It would be a gracious display of appreciation as well as an act of wisdom if our own people would contribute liberally to this fund. Our own colored W. Y. C. A. has had to depend largely upon the generous aid it has received from the white organization, and if we help to strengthen and sustain the latter, while learning how to take care of our own, we will be helping ourselves and showing a decent sense of reciprocity. Self-interest at least, should prompt us to take a larger part in promoting the really big projects that build the community. The United Charities board is calling upon colored citizens to lend a hand in helping to provide aid to suffering humanity in the city, and the reminder is timely. Numerous appeals from colored people for assistance reach United Charities head quarters daily, and some of them must necessarily go unheeded because the organization has not the funds to meet every appeal, no matter how worthy the case may be. Dr. F. W. Williams has for years undertaken the large task of taking care of the colored poor through an independent charities body, of which he is head, but the growth of population and the unemployment situation in this section have combined to render his efforts totally inadequate. Our large Christian citizenship is surely able to meet in a more adequate and satisfactory manner the charitable needs of our own people, and it ought not to be necessary for the white people to call attention to our neglect of our own. A proper sense of self-respect and of our Christian stewardship needs to be asserted in order that this embarrassing situation may be received. The ruling made by President A. Lawrence Lowell against the application for registration of his son as a student of Harvard by Prof. Rosecoe Conkling Bruce, a distinguished graduate of Haryard, has created such widespread protest and denunciation by the strongest and best men of the country, including President Emeritus Charles W. Eliot, for forty years President of Harvard, and some of the strongest newspapers in the country, as to accentuate in a marked way the fact that a large portion of the really intelligent people of the Nation are opposed to the drawing of the race and color line into which Dr. Lowell allowed himself and Harvard to be plunged in utter disregard of his family traditions and those of Harvard. Sallibury, N. C. *The Industrial Building at Livingstone College was totally destroyed by fire here Monday afternoon. The fire was an upper story class room, and nothing was seen except belongings of the students and what could be hurriedly carried from the building. PRESIDENT OF HARVARD RUNS AWAY The Board of Overseers of Harvard, who were not considered by President Lowell in promulgating his ruling against the Jew and the Negro, asked that a special meeting be called in advance of the regular February meeting to consider the ruling, but President Lowell, who has "gone into the air" because of the protests and criticisms of his ruling, appears not to have felt strong enough to face the Board, and announced that he would shortly go to Europe "on business." That is a very unusual thing for the Board of Harvard to do during the college year, when he is expected to be on the job all of the time. It is generally understood that President Lowell is simply "running away from the wrath to come." It is said that the Board of Overseers will meet, whether President Lowell shall be present or not. "It is an ill wind that blows nobody any good." THOMAS DIXON TURNS ON THE KLAN There have been so many strange happenings of late with men and nations and things that our staggering belief that the earth revolves on its axis so rapidly and imperceptibly as not to distrub a glass of water in repose has been greatly boosted. We are beginning to believe that all that we 'believe must-be the autosuggestiveness of all we don't believe, "as insubstantial as a pageant faded," with nothing real and abiding in it. Take the case of Thomas Dixon, the author of "The Clansman," which has become notorious as a movie headliner under the title of "The Birth of a Nation," which we have all anathematized and condemned to perdition, who of us would have believed that he, Thomas Dixon, was not a Klansman, nor a sympathizer with the Ku Klux-Klan. We first had an inking that he was not by a protest registered by Mr. Dixon, and by his brother, recently, against the naming of a Baltimore branch of the Klan after Thomas Dixon. The protest startled us somewhat, but as we did not understand it we let it go on its way, feeling that after a while it would explain itself. It has done so. How? Recently, in New York, there was a largely attended meeting of the American Unity League, which has been organized to combat the sort of Americanism and activities that the Klan stands for. Mr. Thomas B. Felder, now practicing law in New York; but who is a native of Georgia, and who has spent most of his life in Georgia, presided. Thomas Dixon was the star speaker of the meeting. He certainly was a star. The New York World makes the following report, as far as Mr. Dixon is concerned: "Among the speakers was Thomas Dixon who, because of his authorship of "The Clansman," the novel that was made into the motion picture, "The Birth of a Nation," has been mistaken for a Ku Kluxk himself. He denounced the Klan as the most dangerous movement in American history, and said he flayed its organizers in a letter declining an invitation to join the order several years ago. Condemning its anti-Negro activities he declared himself "ready to stand beside the humble Negro and defend him from such assaults, with my riff in hand." Now, if that is not startling enough to make the hairs of a wooden Indian stand on end, fetch something that will do it. Is it not one of the strange happenings of the times which the "pass understanding" and stand stupefied before wisdom? We think so. We all have troubles enough in the natural way without seeking occasion to make trouble, and it is to be hoped that strife makers will be made to see it in this light and reform their ways for the general peace and welfare. WHO KILLED THE DYER BILL? The main thing is that the Dyer bill appears to be as dead as a door knit, with little promise of resuscitation, while lynch lawlessness, instead of growing less, appears to be on the increase. The federal government, which appears to have a holy horror of encroaching on the reserved rights of the States, has been digging into the mtrder of white men in Louisiana and Arkansas, trying to find an interState opening through which it can have a hand in the punishment of the lawbreakers, but it does not appear to have made much success, the thing needed being a federal law, such as the Dyer bill, or one more drastic and sweeping, to "fit the crime." Mr. Perry W. Howard repols with scorn Mr. James Wetland Johnson's insinuation that he threw a monkey wrench into the passage of the Dyer bill, and Mr. Johnson is mum on the question raised as to his responsibility and that of his associates by their much talk and activity among Senators to get the bill passed, and Senator Lodge tells Mr. Johnson that he did not mention any such thing as "terms" in dealing with the filibuster on the bill. So there you are. Nobody appears to be responsible for the death of the Dyer bill. It must have died just like "Topsey just growed." "In 1920 Garvey's supporters rushed into a tent where a religious meeting was conducted by Rev. A Clayton, Powell, and City, and sought to do bodily waking." We are bound to have a federal law to deal with mob lawlessness, not only as a matter of National shame and defense, but because white folks are being mobbed by white folks and getting arrested and tried for their lawlessness, the trials disclosing that public opinion will not allow State laws to function and that; therefore, a change of jurisdiction is becoming imperative. It has become all too easy to intimidate, rob and murder Negroes When white folks are intimidated robbed and murdered they not only yell loudly but they strike back, and when they are crowded too much they compel the enactment of laws to protect them, if there is none such. Matters are reaching that complexion now. And this is the Joker: No law to protect white persons against the acts of the mob can be enacted which the Supreme Court would construe as sound which did not also protect colored persons. Mob lawlessness must go, if the Nation is to remain. The two cannot occupy the same place together. Briefs and Spices In Turkey a Greece spot is more conspicuous than a solitaire. Another trouble with the scheme of humanity is there are more broad-minded poor men than rich. At any rate France is doing just what the majority of us would like to do—taking her coal. A careful study of present day conditions also suggests that the mercury in the household thermometers will come down if the coal bin isn't filled up. It remains to be seen whether Mr. Garvey's proposed lecture tour will result in a collapse or a mild relapse. YESTERDAY "And when the cock crew yesterday" The farmer boy each morning rose, Refreshed and strengthened by a night's repose; His trim physique was kept in trim No fashion plate could sell him clothes. He left his bed to milk the cow, Or hitch old Dobbin to the plow— To till the soil 'til even-tide, Those were the days they taught you how. TODAY But times have changed since yester day, The farmer boy in a city's sway, Goes slumming as a change of sport, And when the cock crows hits the hay. His face is drawn and shows despair, No early slogan here. His frail physique no longer shows The youthful farm boy full of cheer.

LIVINGSTONE COLLEGE BUILDING DESTROYED. To Give Effectual Rebuttal To The Claim That School Trained Young People Forsake The Church. Dr. S. S. Morris has just returned from Kittrell, N. C., where he spent a week at Kittrell College, delivered several addresses to the students on the problems of life preached to the student body and enlisted the young people in a campaign of "Definite Christian Life Service." It is the purpose of the A. M. E. Church of which Dr. Morris is an eminent member and Kittrell College an influential educational plant, to recruit 25,000 young people as volunteers in the "Definite Christian Life Service Corps", and give effective results to the criticisms that the failure of the race, trained in the schools, are indifferent to the claims of the church for service. Kittrell College is the educational plant of the Second Episcopal district of the A. M. E. Church, and is supported by North Carolina, Virginia and Maryland. At the North Carolina Conference last year, more than $12,000 was pledged for the greater Kittrell movement. The school is taxed to its capacity to accommodate the students, who seek to its campus. Owing to the large body of young people gathered at Kittrell, the movement started there by Dr. Morris for a vast army of vigorous Christian recruits promises of great success. A CAMPAIGN FOR $100,000 A campaign for $100,000 for the building of a boys dormitory to be followed by college chapel and administration building, has been started for the school. Under president Edwards, the school is enjoying unprecedented progress. He took charge there six years ago, having spent 15 years at Shaw University. He is a veteran school man, trained architect and a disciplinarian of high order. Dean Valentine, of the Theological Department, and Dean Burfoot, of the College Department, together with a trained faculty of efficient and earnest standards for the growing school. Dr. Morris also spoke to the students of Henderson Normal and Industrial School. 73.

Colored Woman Deeds Farm To Disabled Vets Continued from Page One ment while in the army and after his discharge. This letter established the fact that the ailment from which the young man died existed before his discharge and he was entitled to stoppage of premiums and his beneficiary entitled to collect his insurance upon his death. In March 1922 his mother received her first check amounting to almost $900.00 compensation due him from date of discharge. She applied this money on a farm in North Carolina and each month her check for $57.50 has been paid as installments to finish the payment. Miss. White warmly commended the act of the grateful mother in providing the insurance at her death used to pay for other disabled veterans. She said that she expresses that good deeds done by the Red Cross do not all go unheeded.

Morris, the speaker of the evening—who they had heard was to make an address against Garveyism—and were prevent only by the action of the police. Shortly afterwards members of the Baltimore branch of the U. N. I. A. attempted bodily injury to W. Ashie Hawkins, one of the most distinguished colored attorneys in America, when he criticised Garvey in a speech he made saying, "Anti-Garvey meeting said by Cyril Briggs, then editor of a monthly magazine, The Crusader—in Rush Memorial church, New York City, on a Sunday evening—was broken up by Garveyites turning out the lights. "Several weeks ago the Garvey division in Philadelphia caused such a disturbance in the Salem Baptist church where Attorney J. Austin Norris, a graduate of Yale University, and the Rev. J. W. H. Eason, were speaking against Garvey that the police disbanded the meeting to prevent riot and bloodshed. Reports state the street in front of the church was blocked by Garveyites who insulted and knocked down pedestrians who were on their way to the meeting. "In Los Angeles, Cal., Mr. Noah D. Thompson, a distinguished colored citizen of that city, employed in the editorial department of the Los Angeles Daily 'Express,' reporting adversely on the Garvey movement as a convention, was attacked by members Garvey's Los Angeles division, who had been incited to violence by Garvey himself, and only through the help of a large number of police officers was Thompson saved from bodily harm." 'RIOT IN CLEVELAND' "A few months ago when some persons in the Cleveland, Ohio division of the U. N. I. A. asked Dr. LeRoy Bundy, Garvey's chief assistant, for an accounting of funds, a veritable victim took place, led, according to the Pittsburgh "American," by Bundy himself. "In Pittsburgh, Pa, on October 28, last, after seeking to disturb a meeting conducted by Chandler Owen, editor of The Messenger magazine, Garveyites who had lurked around the corner in a body, rushed on the street car after the meeting, seeking to assault him, but were prevented by the interruption of the police. "When William Pickens, who had co-operated in the expose of the Garvey frauds, was to deliver an address him, Toronto, Canada, Garveyites met him in caps of the church with hands threatened to help him, pockets, trying to intimidate him, lest he should further expose that movement." "In Chicago, after seeking to break up an Anti-Garvey meeting, a Garvey supporter shot a policeman who sought to prevent him from attacking the speaker as he left the building. 'MADE THREATS IN NEW YORK' "In New York last August during a series of meetings conducted by the Friends of Negro Freedom to expose Garvey's schemes and methods, the speakers were threatened with death. Scores of Garveyites came into the meetings with the avowed intention of breaking them up. This they were prevented from doing by the stern determination on the part of the leaders, the activities of the New York police and the great mass of West Indians and Americans who clearly showed that they would not permit any cowardly ruffins to break up their meetings. 'CONDONES AND INVITES CRIME' "In fact, Marcus Garvey has created an organization which in its fundamental law condones and invites to crime. This is evidenced by Section 3 of Article 5, of the Constitution of the U. N. I. A., under the caption, "Court Reception At Home." It reads, "No one convicted of felony, except such crime or felony was committed in the interest of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the African Communities League." "Further proof of this is found in the public utterances of William Herrill, one of the chief officials, the organization and Garvey's entry to the League of Nations Assembly." Geneva. Speaking at the Goldfield Theatre in Baltimore, Md., on August 18, 1922, he is quoted as saying, "Black folk as well as white who tamper with the U. N. I. A. are going to die." "What appears to be an at-temp to carry out this threat is seen in the assault, and slashing with a razor of one S. T. Saxon, by, Garveyites, in Cincinnati, Ohio, when he spoke against the movement there last October. EASON'S ASSASSINATION "On January 1, this year, just after having made an address in New Orleans, the Rev. J. W. H. Eason, former "American Leader" of the Garvey movement, who had fallen out with Garvey and was to be the chief witness, against him in the Federal Government's case was waylaid and assassinated, it is reported in the press by the Garveyites. Rev. Eason identified two of the men as Frederick Dyer, 42, a longshoreman, and William Shakespeare, 28, a painter. Both of them are prominent members of the U. N. I. A in New Orleans, one wearing a badge as chief of police and the other as chief of the fire department of the "African Republic." Dr. Eason's dying words, identifying the men whom he knew from long acquaintance in the movement, were: The vicious inclination of these Garvey members is seen in their comments in an interview: SAYS HE DESERVED WHAT HE GOT “(The N. Y. Amsterdam News reports: ‘Both Dyer and Shakespeare have denied the attack, but declared they were glad of it as they said Eason richly deserved’ what he got. ‘Eason, told of them, ‘was a sorehead. The Association made him what he was. When was he expelled because of misconduct he updown the country preaching against Marcus Garvey who is doing great good for our race. Someone who evidently thought it was time to stop his lies took a crack at him. I don’t blame the one that did it.

I saw their faces and (pointing at Dyer and Shakespeare) I am positive that these two men here are two of the three.' REMOVED FEDERAL WITNESS "Eason says he knew the men who shot him were directed to do so. In so much, however, as the assassination of Mr. Eason removes a federal witness, we suggest that the Federal Government probe into the facts and ascertain whether Eason was assassinated as the result of an interstate conspiracy emanating from New York, a significant that the U. N. I. A. has in its organ, 'The Negro World', the defense fund for those indicted for the murder, seemingly in accordance with its constitution. CREATES RACIAL STRIFE "Not only has this movement created friction between Negroes and whites, but it has also increased the hostility between American and West Indian Negroes. "VICTIMIZED THE IGNORANT" "Further, Garvey has built up an organization which has victimized hordes of ignorant and unsuspecting Negroes, the satured by Judge Pankey, who is Judge Jake Pankey of the New York Municipal Court, before whom Garvey's civil suit for fraud was tried. Judge Panken said: 'It seems to me that you have been preying upon the gullibility of your own people, having kept no proper accounts of the money received for investments, being an organization of high rank, the officers have moved outrageously and salaries and were permitted to have exhortant expense accounts for pleasure jaunts throughout the country. I advise those 'douglas' who have contributed to these organizations to go into court and ask for the appointment of a receiver.' "For the above reasons we advocate that the Attorney General use his full influence completely to disband and extirpate this vicious moment, and that he vigorously and speedily push the Government's case against Marcus Garvey for using the money of the JFK should be in the interest of the Jewish community as a matter of practical expediency. CITIZENS OF 'AFRICAN REPUBLIC' "The Government should now that the Garvey followers are for the most part voteless—being either largely unnaturalized or refraining from voting because Garvey teaches that they are citizens of an African Republic. He has greatly exaggerated the actual membership of his organization, which is conservatively estimated to be much less than 20,000 in all countries, including the United States and Africa, the West Indies, Central and South America. (The analysis of Garvey's membership has been made by W. A. Dunn, highly intelligent West Indian man, Jamaica, Garvey's home, in 'The Crusader' Magazine, New York City; also by Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, a well known social statistician, in 'The Century Magazine', February, 1923, New York City). On the other hand, hosts of citizen voters, native born and naturalized, both white and colored, earnestly desire the vigorous prosecution of this case. "Moreover, since in its basic law, the very Constitution of the U. N. I. A—the organization condones and encourages crime, its future meetings are careful, and its officers of the U. N. I. A react to promptly and severely punished "We desire the Department of Justice to understand that those who draft this document, as well as the tens of thousands who will endorse it in all parts of the country, are by no means impressed by the widely circulated reports which allege certain criminals have used to use their influence to get the indignities against Garvey squashed. The signers of this appeal represent no particular political, religious or nationalistic faction. They have no personal ends or partisan interests to serve. Nor are they moved by any personal bias against Marcus Garvey. They sound this tocosin only because they foresee the gathering storm of the violence and sense the imminent menace of this movement which, cancer-like, is knowing at the very vitals of peace and safety—of civic harmony and inter-radial concord."

SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON divine Master-attach to more miracle, and how essentially Gospel differ in this respect. His religious biography. We are here told that men may expect and even experience failure, without any real faith. We are told that indeed in his power, but without surrender to his rule.' Prof. John Ladd. Miracle, and how essentially the Gospels differ from this respect from legendary religious biography. We are here told that men may expect and even experience miracles without any real faith in Jesus, with belief indeed in his power, but without surrender to his rule. Prof. Sol. Sadd. Jesus and his disciples on the way to Jerusalem passing along the borders of Galilee and Samar were entered into a certain village, and there met Him ten lepers. These lepers stood after off (Lev. 18:46.6), and cried unto Jesus, Master, have mercy upon us. The lepers were commanded to go and show themselves to the priests. As they went, they were made whole (cleansed). "Mr. I today want the Lord to heal them of sin first and then they are willing to trust him afterwards. The men took Jesus at his word and started off for the temple just as if the work were already done. Thus believing and obeying the work was done. Here is a practical definition of saying faith. It is to trust the Lord for salvation and then go off and act as if we believed he was saving... Jesus said, Whatsover things ye desire, when ye pray before ye receive, and ye shall have them." ... Thanksgiving and Appreciation Expressed by the Lepor.vs. 15,16. The Samaritan. leper fell at the feet of Jesus, and thanked him for the cure. "This man would have been allowed to associate with Jews but for the miserable disease with which he was afflicted and which obliterated the infliction of race and caste. It is the same in the Jerusalem; in the leper-house, termed Abodes of the fortune, Jewes and Mohammedans will live there. Under no other circumstances will these hotile people do this." (Pulp. Com.) This curred leper was not ashamed to acknowledge that Jesus had healed him. Not only did he fall at Jesus' feet, but this leper cried out with a loud voice, and glorified God. "There is a man who has a nickname. In the different parts of the country to which he goes is known by the name of Hallelujah. When he stops at a hotel and goes into the commercial room, the travellers say, 'Here comes Hallelujah So-and-So. Why? Because he is a praising Christian. I think if I had the choosing of a nickname I would choose that." Dr. James Hood Wilson. 3. The Nine Ungrateful Lepers.-vs. 1719. Although thy breath be rude. "Freeze, freeze, then bitter sky, Thou does not bite so nigh. An friend remembered not"-Shakespeare "As you like it." in "But where are the nine?" Even the son of Man felt a keen disappointment at base ingratiation; and all ungratifulness is base ingratiation. "The before before us is humbling, heurts-searching, and instructive. The best of us are far too like the nine lepers. We are more ready to pray than praise, and more disposed to ask God for what we have, and more disposed to him for what we have. Murmuring, complaining, and on every side. Few indeed are to be found who are not continually hiding their mercies under a bushel and setting their wants and trials on a hill"A. Newton. Under a bushel and going to the Santanart leper." Arise, and go by the way: thy faith hath made the whole."v. 19. Gratitude is a capacity, and like all capacities it can be expanded: it is a faculty, and like all capacities it can be instituted, and like all institutes it can be opened; it is a plant, and like all plants it can be cultivated; it is a gift, and like all gifts it can be last-dr. C. G. E. Jefferson. BRHCOGGRAMB "Instituted in the basest of sins. If there is any man who deserves no mercy, it is the ingrate. A appreciation is a medicine which would cure half the world's ill. Thanksgiving is a higher and more noble aspect of prayer than petition. Appreciation for blessings already received makes us worthy to receive more blessings. The Sparkling Four Quartet, Mrs. Anna Harper Davis and Meadames Rosa Smith and Indiana Johnson. Dr. S. S. Morris will lend the next meeting. The Sunday school was greatly pleased at the address of Dr. Marzin. Many out-of-town visits and made welcome. Next Sunday: Holy Communion 11 A.M. Preaching by the Pastor 7:30 P.M.

CAPEVILLE VA WANTED MEN ```markdown ``` BROWNIE STORIES HANNAH'S MILLION (or) chapter 2 "Where are the children Jones?" Said Mrs. Smith as she entered her friend's kitchen. In the living room, Hannah has a big idea and Henry is helping her thrash it out." I get really bothered sometimes about that child, she is too serious for twelve; Let's listen," said Mrs. Smith, and the two women walked quietly through the next room and stopped before the living room door. They could see the two children sitting before the grate fire their faces set in a determined look. Henry was talking. "Well if you are bent on changing to a million alright; but promise not to change until we actually earn that million Hannah. Now that's settled. What are the plans for the million, you know nothing can be done without plans? I have one plan already, the fewer we have the easier we can follow them. Never miss doing a kindness, to man or animal. (2) All the stories tell about kind pee people having success. That's alright, but this is no fairy tale and any how there aint any fairies you know, 'cepts them in your own self." "I have a plan Hannah let me talk now. Never miss earning a penny, even if you have to go a mile out of your way or miss a game of ball." "Goody goody, but that is going to be hard cause you know there are some things that I just hate to do." "You being a girl Hannah I help you with the nasty things you not like and we will make you a better man." "Another Henry, Let's save two thirds of everything we earn." "I knew you'd take the joy out of it for a boy Hannah, but I'm game, I promise to save two thirds." And let's make an amendment to this, have a common savings and have a race to the next corner, the one that gets there first to treat. Our money don't belong to the company yet. Three drastic rules of process are rough and begin to feel that we will make that million. The cheers for that million." The children pulled on their sweaters and started for the door and but for the timely entrance of Mr. Jones two nice Brownie ladies would have been caught eavesdropping. The race to the corner was very exhilarating and Hannah treated to candy as she had only three men. On the way back she met an old man. He was tall and he cease point me the way back to Rev. House little girl, they say he lives around here somewhere." "Alright," said the child, and timing her steps with those of the companion she showed him the way, never stopping un- he was safely on the front porch. "To you who you are little Miss, you dont find me helping old people now a day," "Oh I am a Brownie good by." That night at the suppen table there was an unopened envelope beside Hannah's plate, it was placed there by Rev. Thomas' boy a few minutes before. When Hannah opened it she found a new five dollar bill and a message which read. "It pays to be a Brownie." Hannah told Henry about the money before she ate her supper because you know it was the capital of the Smith and Jones Financial Agency.

When John Baker came in from school he did not call mother as usual because John was for once angry with his mother. He went directly to the pantry where he usually found his after school lunch and began to eat Mrs. Baker continued her washing and tears fell from her eyes into the tub. "John," she thought "knew all along how hard it was to make ends meet and now he was worrying for a pair of skates. To be sure skates are good for children but what with a new baby, every other year, and father earning only fifteen dollars a week. He might understand, he is quite twelve now," and "before the sentence was finished she caught sight of a page of the Guide where it had been thrown by the careless children. "That's my new paper and I haven't read it," said the overburdened mother, and pulling the precious paper from the wood box where part of it was already torn away she discovered something that made her eyes open wide. "John come here son, bless the dear editor's heart he is giving away skates, nice ball bearing skates for only four yearly subscriptions to the Yoyo Store. You can each afternoon until you get enough to get the skates." John forgot his lunch and made two yells and one genuine summersault out of the door. Before the next Saturday he had secured the four subscriptions and the skates. "Mother," he said I will not stop working because we need so many things and I feel sure that I can earn some real foney this safe way. BEST CANE GRANULATED..... 71/2c Ib 160-Ib. Bag for $7.10 C. D.

WANTS "THE SEVENTH GUEST" FOR THE ATT You've always liked the good old fashioned mystery story that keeps winding and winding into more of a maze until to save your souls you can't tell who committed the crime and it seems as if there was no way out of the tangle. Then you suddenly discover that the last person you would have suspected is the guilty person. "That's the sort of entertainment Too much cannot be said of some of the players of last season's independent eleven. In spite of the many adversities of the teams they had stars and players worthy of mentioning. Below is my selection as the season's honor roll, however, it is not my intention, to pick an all-city eleven, but simply to mention those deserving of worthy comment. ENDS Billups, Columbia, A.

Unpublished History of Football and Baseball Attucks Theatre Maintaining Clean, High Class Standards Local Playhouse Ranks With Best Colored Theatres In The Country And Is A Great Stimulus To Negro Art. "THE SEVENTH GUEST" BILLED FOR THE ATTUCKS NEXT WEEK (By J. M. HARRISON) It has been said that three organizations. of Norfolk made Norfolk Ask the old timers and they will invariably tell you the Reds, Columbians and the Excelsior Band are the organizations. And it is remarkable how each one had one or more members. Smith was or is still a member of the band, and many of the old Columbians played with the Red; Stockings, and when music was had on these athletic occasions, the Excelsior furnished it. THE BEGINNING OF FOOTBALL IN NORFOLK When "Plug" Carter graduated from V. N. and I. I. at Petersburg and returned to Norfolk, his native heath, he brought with him the intricate knowledge and training of a finished athlete and football player. He became one of the best full-backs and kickers of the number nine into a pigskin. Returning among his old associates of boyhood, it was not long before he had imbued them with the rudiments of football, then entirely unknown. He named the team he organized, the team he became better known as C. A. C.'s. It is safe to say that no local team in the South ever left a better or cleaner record. Many of the members of this famous club have won laurels in professions, trades and business, and some have crossed the "line" for the player to each left a record for the survival. The writer succeeded "Plug" as captain for several years and recalls many interesting stories concerning The Attucks Theatre has become very popular with the theatre going public since its acquisition by the Lafayette. Players Corporation. The colored people of Norfolk and vicinity have and probably always will have at least a sentimental interest in this playhouse since it is a part of their own inspiration and creation. When the new owners took charge of the house it was announced that it would be their policy to give to the colored citizens of this city plays and entertainments worthy of the inspiration that created such a beautiful theatre. And the general comment on the entertainments given at this house in the past three months have been clean, wholesome, good and up-to-date. The very show brought to the Attucks in the three months has received the commendation of the public. For moral cleanness, when entertainment and the advancement of Negro artists and art, the plays shown here are unexcelled. It has been frankly stated that the managers have brought plays to Norfolk, the magnitude of which precluded any possible chance of profit to the house, but as it is their avowed policy to show only the best at the theatre, which they believe is in keeping with the demand of Norfolk's colored citizen they have brought them here at profit costs. The Lafayette Players, who are being featured here regularly are in the foremost ranks of Negro stage artists. They are "making a place" for the Negro in professional dramatic art. Their's is always a clean bill, educational, thrilling, pathetic and true to life. In fact, the Lafayette Players are the pride of the race drama. Each player is a star and has a necessary sacrifice in time and study to correctly interpret the human emotions before the footlights. It has often been said that the theatre is one of the greatest educa Manager Kelly announces that next week the Lafayette Players will applaud the Buckles Theatre in "The Seventh Guest," and the thriller thrivers and a play that has created a furre all over the country. Local theatre goers are to be concerned with the opportunity of seeing this big success in stock at so early a date. "The Seventh Guest," like "The Bat," "The Cat and the Canary," is composed of hair raising thrills, a wealth of excellent comedy and a big gripping love story. It starts with a party of young people who have gone to a haunted house for the purpose of organizer—an order that will prove to the world that there are no such things as ghosts and spirits. They have not been in the building fifteen minutes before things begin to happen; the first they know all of them are in the house with them. To tell the story of "The Seventh Guest" would be to destroy the mystery and then half of the pleasure of witnessing the be it said, therefore, merely that for the acts, filled to overflowing with roar, drama and comedy, the mystery runs riot and is not solved until just before the drop of the final curtain. Director Macenteen following the orders of manager Kelly is sparing no expense to make this, the first-of-the big mystery plays to be released for production in stock, a success from a scenic as well as an acting standpoint. It is quite a task to present "The Seventh Guest" because of the host of effects that are used in its three acts. the personnel of the men unfamiliar to the present generation. REGRET THAT TEAM ADOPTED NAME It may be selfishness or pride, but it was with a feeling of something akin to sorrow that after time had retired many of the old stars, and professions and other pursuits had recruited others from the ranks, a team of 100,000 more old men. I have heard each one speak in sneerling terms of the team which took the name of the pioneers of football in Virginia, and divers-suggestions have been made to prevent them, but being unincorporated, there was nothing to prevent them. INSPIRATION FROM COLLEGE TEAMS I believe a majority of the members who assumed professions and larger outlooks in life, received inspiration from playing against Howard, Union (then Wayland) Petersburg and Shaw. Not only did we play these to standstill many occasions, to standstill Wayland, of 36 to 0. It was then an annual class to meet Shaw, and the last game the writer appeared in against the Carolinians, a crowd of over 4,000 people saw the contest, which proves that even in those days, football had been made very popular by the Columbia team. There was only one team in the city at that time, while today, one represents every bootleck shop and most every corner. I recall a game against Shaw when George W. Kingston "downd" himself with a elf called Gold, imagine our surprise when he gave for his excuse, "That was my play!" Next week we will give the names of the old Columbians and some of the great games played by them. are Maintaining High Class Standards links With Best Colored Thea- try And Is A Great Stimulus become going by the performance of the Lafayette Play- est certainly affords an absorbingly interesting and entertaining insight on human activities But there has been shown at the Attucks recently a variety of bills drama, comedy, etc., all maintaining the same high standard that the management set out to give to Norfolk public. It has been said by people, whose judgment of plays is worthy of respect, that some of the and cleanest musical comedies seen in North have appeared at this house of law. And, moreover, the building itself is kept in high order, clean, sanitary, well lighted, cheery and homelike. The appointments in the Attucks are luxurious, which is well known. The seating arrangement makes every seat a desirable one and the most sensitive tastes will enjoy an evening in this playhouse built, especially for colored people and now especially for the entertainment of colored people, furtherance of the interest of Negroes. It is one of the finest colored playhouses in America, probably exceeding any in the South and comparing favorably with those of the North. Special inducements are offered to school children to witness the shows on Saturday afternoons This is an appreciative concession made in favor of the young people as has been evidenced by the attendance. One reason for the good attendance of school children is the unwelcome ease that parents have nothing unwholesome is allowed to be shown on the stage at the Attucks, but quite to the contrary, many valuable lessons are portrayed in some of the acts. The colored citizens of Norfolk are unanimous in their opinion that inasmuch as the theatre did pass out of their possession the most compensating thing about it is the special effort of the present managers to keep it a high class Negro playhouse. you get in 'In The Seventh Guest,' the big mystery play that will be presented by the original Lafayette Playhouse at the Attucks Theatre and promises to be the greatest entertainments that has been offered locally in months. Good Pictures At Simon Colonial Movie Fans will have the opportunity to see some high class pictures at the Colonial Theatre in Portsmouth next week. For the first three days will be presented "The Affairs of Anatol," a super photophy of with a biew of screen stars "Broken Silence" "Buried Treas engeance Is Mine." follow during the week of the week with the "Radio King" on Saturday for the benefit of I.

Popular prices will prevail in the appearance of these stars. The bill will run the entire week, which is also evidence that it is a good one. THINKS HONORS BELONG TO THE SILVER ELEVEN (Br JOBHEA J. NIXON) I think that the championship honors for the 1922 season among local independent teams should go to the Silver Eleven team and not the Aeolians as Mr. Johnson stated in his review of the independents' activities. The Silver Eleven was the only squad to play a game in that they beat the Yale A's in 0.0. The Aeolians would not accept a challenge from the Silver Eleven.
