CITY EDITION Norfolk Journal and Guide WORKMAN BURIED ALIVE WOMAN LEAPS TO DEATH FROM FIRE SHIP BILL DRAWS PATHETIC APPEAL FROM PRESIDENT Afro-Americans Discern Significance in Executive's Plea on Filibuster of Subsidy while He was Silent on Dyer Bill. SENATE UNYIELDING TO EXECUTIVE BRANCH Washington, D. C., Feb.—In submitting to a joint session of Congress on February 7, the proposal of the World War foreign debt commission for the funding of the British debt, President Harding digressed from the proposal and made a passionate appeal for some "decisive action" on the ship subsidy bill, which has been before the Senate since early in December. The appeal of the President for a decision on the shipping bill is significant. It shows a growing interest with the Senate in the issue, which permits a wilful minority to defeat legislation by indulging in unlimited debate. His plea for "Congressional expression, not mere, avoidance," might well have been made when Democratic Senators openly hibbated, not to defeat, to prevent the bill of the Dyer anti-lynching bill. EXTRACT FROM ADDRESS That part of his address in which he pleaded for Congressional action is also clear: "Congress dives to itself, to the executive branch of the Government, and to the American public some decisive action." Mere avoidance by prolonged debate is a mark of impatience, a vitally important question. I need for a decision. If there is a favorable majority the bill should be enacted. "If a majority is opposed, defeat will be decisive. "I speak frankly because the situation demands frankness. I am trying to emphasize a responsibility which cannot be met by one branch of the Government alone. I am call for Congressional expression, not mere avoidance. I am not seeking now to influence the Senate's decision, but I am appealing for some decision." NEW ELKS' TEMPLE TO OPEN EASTER MONDAY Washington, N.

Washington, Feb.—(Crusader Service)—With free immigration a possible source of political infection and restricted immigration not bringing the promised freedom from the spread of radical ideas among the American working class, Senator Colt has introduced a bill into the United States constitution which is the capitalists' answer Today employers and their agents, the steamship companies, are prohibited by law from selecting immigrants from foreign countries and importing them into America. With the passage of Senator Colt's bill this last restriction止en slave traffic will be swept away. Gangs of slaves *wathered by the old method of force and deception* will be brought to the front by the employers, owned body and soul.

BLACK-FACED ROBBER IS SHOT TO DEATH BLACK-FACED ROBBER IS SHOT TO DEATH White High School Student Smears Face with Charcoal, Dons Jumper, and Starts out on Burglarizing Expedition. Kansas City, Feb.—(Crusader Service)—His face smoaked with charcoal and his body clothed in overalls and a jumper, R. Bishop, nineteen, white, student and member of the Central High School football squad, turned bandit last night, robbed two gasoline filling stations of approximately $22, and was shot to death in a gun battle with a policeman after wounding the latter. Lawrence W. Ferguson, twenty-five, chauffeur at the Sheffield Police Station, wounded by the youth, is in the General Hospital with a bullet in his groin. He will recover. Through tear-dimmed eyes, the youth's gray-haired mother, Mrs. William H. Bishop, looked at the black smudged face of her son two hours after the tragedy. "I can't believe he's my boy," she said broken. "He was too good for that." The news came to Otto Dübuch, principal of Central High School, as a shock. His voice grew husky as he narrated the virtues of young Bishop, whom he characterized with a kind of warmth, hooded, bashful, athletic, studious and loved by his companions." Yet on the desk of the sergeant at the Sheffield Policit station lies a 32 calibre revolver taken from the lad's pocket, a jumper and a pair of overalls, the former stained with blood, which he wore when he fell—and $22 in bills. And on the General Hospital, Ferguson bullet through his right groin and the red streak of another across his chest; testifies between groans that Bishop fired first.

Feb.—(Crusader Service)—Only fifteen states have been free from lynchings in the last ten years, the commission of church and race relations of the Federal Council of Churches in America devel- ted today in an analysis of lynch- statistics from 1885 to 1921. Of these, no lynching has ever been reported in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, and Vermont, none has been reported since 1889 in New Jersey, Utah or Connecticut. The other states with a "clear record in the last ten years" were: Nevada, Colorado, Idaho, Indiana, Delaware, and Pennsylvania. The lynching victims from 1885 to 1921 included 1,011 white men, 17 white women, 3,000 grotesque men, and 200 white prisons lynched has decreased rapidly, since 1900. The statement cited the lynching of Italians, Mexicans, and Indians as "indicating that lawlessness spreads where prejudice abounds." It added that the annual rate of lynching declined slowly after the peak years of 1892 and 1893 until 1908, increased in that year and the next, and then fell off until 1918, when the tendency again turned upward.

First Annual Session of the HAMPTON INSTITUTE BUILDERS' CONFERENCE, out of which there has emerged "THE NATIONAL BUILDERS' ASSOCIATION. FIRE INSURANCE BUSINESS NO LONGER EXPERIMENT WITH RACE, SUCCESS OF DURHAM CO. SHOWS After Two Years of Successful Operations President Pearson Declares Substantial Growth Most Satisfactory and Larger Development of Business Assured.—Now Operating In Five States And Planning.National Expansion. (Special To Journal and Guide) Durham, N. G.—A little more than two years ago the "Bankers" Fire Insurance Company," was launched in Durham, with some of the most successful business men of the race at the head of it. Old line fire insurance business was up to that time an untradden field among Negroes, altho signal success, has been sustained in the old line fire reserve life insurance field by more than one company, so many observers regarded the venture of the organizers of Bankers' Fire in the light of an experiment. It did happen, for the business to pass the experimental stage. Cordial co-operation on the part of the North Carolina Insurance Department as well as the Fire Underwriters Association, combined with absolute confidence in the ability and integrity of the men at the head of the business seemed to facilitate the immediate success of the fire industry. It briefly told in the following interviews your correspondent had today with President W. G. Pearson and Secretary-Manager W. Gomez: VISION OF DURHAM BUSINESS MEN Mr. Pearson said: bering one hundred and fifty: A regular old line fire insurance company, issuing the same kind of policies as any other old line fire insurance company, the same rates and giving the same service in every particular. That's why it is meriting the good will and support of the people. The hundreds of letters which we receive monthly from men in particular of life, would be good expressions, contained there we are indeed very grateful. And for the full co-operation of the property owners in the states in which we are operating, we wish to express our earnest desire that our business relations may continue as pleasant as in the past, and urging us to come into the other states of the Union, we wish to assure you that we are laying plans which will likely put our organization within your reach. WELCOME OTHER STATES "We are receiving many letters from every state in the Union from investors who desire to buy Bankers' Fire Stock," said Secretary-Manager This is the first utterance from me as President of the Bankers' Fire Insurance Company, of Durham, North Carolina. It gives me a great deal of pleasure to say that a little more than two years ago, I met and began to talk of organizing a Fire Insurance Company. The one soot found that the other had been thinking the same kind of thing for a long time. The one said, "Let us do it." The one said, "I will do you." So these two met the third man and after relating their story the third man said, "It is a big idea. I shall be glad to cooperate." These three spoke to others of their immediate group in Durham and they taught the third man about faith. The first formal meeting was called at the home of the gentleman who after the organization was completed, was elected Secretary-Manager. STRONG OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS At the second meeting a permanent organization was formed at which time W. G. Pearson was elected president; C. C. Spaulding and Dr. A. M. Moore, vicepresidents; John M. Avery, treasurer, and the present executive committee consists of these officers: The secretary and R. L. McDougald, Dr. A. J. Strong, E. R. Merrick and the directors of the company - without question some of the safest and best business men known to our race. Bankers' Fire had its first office in one large room, but it soon outgrew its quarters and moved into a suite, of five rooms over the Hayes, six months of its operation these quarters were soon too small and the present home office occupies an entire floor in the largest and best building owned by our people in the North Carolina Mutual Life Home Office Building.) ABSORBED OTHER COMPANIES' Bankers' Fire has during its two years of operation taken over two other companies and is now the largest national insurance company in existence. EXPERIENCED MEN The men who started this company are men who are -ripened in experience, and the wisdom of their adventure is shown in the unparalleled success that had already come to the company. And now, the very name of Bankers. Fire is a -synonym of -success. Just think, a company with five states with total resources of more than three hundred thousand dollars and with all necessary plant one. bering one hundred and fifty: A regular old line fire insurance company, issuing the same kind of policies as any other old line fire insurance company, the same rates and giving the same service in every particular. That's-why it is meriting the good will and support of the people. STRANGE WOMEN OF BIBLE, SERMON TOPIC Rev. R. H. Bowling Preaches Striking Sermon on Shrewd Wickedness of Feminine Biblical Character. "Rahab's sharpness rested not on the mere ability to tell a slick lie. Strike out the lie and the betrayal of her countrymen from the record, and she still stands out as shrewd and unusual. And it was not a matter of Rahab's character either. She was one of the two women of her name, one of the two women of her name mentioned, under the reminder, that she was a harlot. And yet she was clever." Thus spoke Richard H. Bowling last Sunday night in a special sermon at the First Baptist Church on "Strange Women of the Bible" of the vowel of the name of the sermon was, "The Woman who was Saved by Her Sharpness." "Let us be reminded," continued the speaker, "that moral character does not give or take away, sense. You will not be a successful business man or a discerning lawyer merger by being pious, fair and low and desirable. They are certainly unthinkable as a policy of life for the Christian. Open surrender to the enemy would have won for Rahab all that she got by basal betrayal of her city, and not in her sharp lie. She behaved wisely in this matter, and above and above. While thereafter Rahab is to be commended for her sword doing, she was not well known at home. (Page Ernest) M. B. Is Norfolk's Christian population callouse to humanity's cry "Throw out the life line?" Do the magnificent church edifices, the race's proud boast of material progress in 'this city belie its real Christian attitude? Are the colored citizens of Norfolk less responsive to the call of charity than the citizens of other races? These are the questions that harken back and forth in the minds of those touch with the city situation, colored people in this city. For three weeks Norfolk United Charities, colored, has been making a special appeal for funds to carry on the work of aiding the charities. The appeal has not been encouraging yet according to the records of the charities organization the applications-for help have steadily increased. **TWELVE HOURS** Within twelve hours this week, Rev. F. W. Williams, president, Norfolk United Charities, colored received twelve applications from families who stated that their cases should be cooperate and they would have help. When the representative of this paper called on Dr. Williams to inquire of the situation he was found in his office at Queen St. Baptist Church with the applications before he had been able to render any relief in those cases he merely opened his book and showed his records. Those records spoke louder than anything that he might have said. Jotted down opposite each name were such words as "cash" or "cash" etc. In every instance Rev. Williams had done something for the applicants even to the extent of assuming personal responsibility to give immediate relief in some instances. But he admitted that it was a problem on limited funds. "so many on limited funds." Dr. Williams seems to have a system all his own for relieving his applicants. He has worked it out in a way that will do the most good. For instance, if the application comes from a family without children, the allowance is the minimum, which he determines after thorough investigation, that the family can get immediate relief if he is a drunken family, he allows a little allowance. If it is a single person he sees that he gets enough for three meals and aids in getting him a job. In one instance this week he sent a sick man to his home in North Carolina. Dr. Williams says that he gets great pleasure out of doing the work, but how much he would be for providing if the public would support his hand with funds. He stated that he has discovered that practically all of the people who come to him for aid are honest people. He has been double crossed only once. Most of the appeals are made directly to the white charities, but any number of them are relayed to Dr Williams for attention. The appeal to the public is repeated with 'emphasis'. It is an urgent Christian, duty and the 'public' is counted on to sustain it. THREE WOMEN FOUR FIREMEN HURT IN BLAZE Four Story Lodging House in Colored Section Swept by Fire While Occupants Smash thru Windows, and Leap into Snow. New York, Feb—Mrs. Clara Wilkerson, 27, was killed yesterday, three other colored women and four white firemen were hurt in a blaze which swept swiftly, through a four-story lodging house at 130 West 53 street with whirlwind velocity. Flames and smoke pinched six occupants against the walls and were hurt and two were rescued by firemen. The sixth, a woman, remained astride a window sill until the flames had been put out. Next door the firemen were rescued. New York Canine Infirmary, were thrown into a panic by the smoke. About three o'clock yesterday afternoon, Mrs. Liza Southern, who is 85 years-old, and who lived on the second floor of the lodging house with her daughter, who was late lunch. She struck a match to light the gas stove, but her unsteady hand brought the flame too near a curtain. In a moment this had blazed and, the flames had spread to other objects. The aged woman tried vainly to screen out the building, leaving the doors open. Mrs. Southern's screams had been heard by Mrs. Moran, a white woman who, with her husband, managed the lodging house, and who ran to her own rooms on the third floor rear, shouted "fire" from the window. "Closing the doors behind me was the only thing that saved me," Mrs Moran said later in describing the fire. "I sat airtide the window all determined that I would not jump except as a last resort." She added, "Away. Her." "As the smoke became denser I heard Mrs. Brown in the window above me scream. Look out, and when the smoke cleared a little, I saw her lying unconscious in the snow in the yard. In the window at my right I saw the smoke coming through the smoke. She cried out to me, 'What shall I do,' I replied, 'Stay right where you are.' She screamed back, 'My God, I can't.' The flames are on my back! A moment later she had thrown herself into the yard below." Moran described the rescue of Florine Perry from a window above her. As the flames neared the window, Fireman Edward Dornell of Truck 2, held by his legs from the roof by Ieutnant Robert Jackson and Fireman John Tucker of the same company, reached into the fourth story window and caught the young woman and his comrades pulled out of the window. Flames were spurting from the second, third and fourth story windows and were seething through the hall. Fireman William Kennedy and Chief Dennis Curtin hastily raised a ladder to a third floor window, standing for help, and Smith working for help, and Kennedy then brought her down. Reserves were called out from the West 47th Street Station house to control the crowds which pressed against the fire lines. Traffic in several streets was interrupted for more than an hour. The damage was estimated at. $10,000. Mrs. Wilkinson died at midnight in Bellevue Hospital, where Miss Brown is in a critical condition with a fractured skull. SAYS THE LORD WILL AVENGE INJUSTICES Rev. C. M. Long Warns the Nation that Divine Power will Mete out Retributive Justice. "Proud America, that shuteth, thine eyes to wrongs done to the weak and closet of the ear, earnest your soldier, who in time of peace are forgotten, but on, whom in the time of war you must depend, thou that permittest the helpless to be terrorized by the hooded members of the invisible empire, and maketh orphans and widows with bonfire and stalks with fire, the preachs of a prophet, the veracity of whose message is as clear as the noon-day! whose declarations are substantiated by the records of all the wars of the past and whose gospel is born from above; hear! America wages his sin in the thief, thou dost in civil wrongs and political injustice; if thou dost continue to tax a people and send them to die on the field of battle and refuse to give them a voice in the government which they defend, the time has insisted on when peace and tranquility will spread their wings like Noah's flood, when prosperity and luxury like the Arabs shall fold their tents and as silently steal away, when God shall out of His Divine wrath and vengeance satuate your thirst for human blood with rivers of blood that run from the world, your own sons on the earth, and shall own sons on the earth for arms and the rule, with the mighty conflagration of your cities like the Will!

WOMEN ARE FINDING STEADY EMPLOYMENT Tobacco Industry Also Affords Large Number of Men Work in Eastern Carolina. (BY RHODEN MITCHELL) Greenville, N. C.—The tobacco industry in this section is proving a boon to working men and women—especially the women, during these winter days. Getting a line on this kind of employment the writer interviewed Mr. Ragsdale of the John E. Hughes Co., Inc., and learned that an average of 175 colored persons are employed by that concern twelve months in the year stemming and redrying tobacco. Mrs. J. A. Battle has the following to say regarding the influence mothers and teachers may exert for the improvement of the youth of Greenville: I think there could be greater influence for the improvement of the young men and youth of Greenville by understanding between the mothers and teachers. Every child thinks its mother an ideal mother. Every mother understands her child best. If the youth is to have every chance for good, the mother must think like the teacher and the teacher must think rightly. Hence the importance of a cordial relation between the mother and the teacher. The youth and the young man must have a diversion. We, as mothers and teachers should criticize in unmistakable terms, the rotten dance halls of today, the light, trashy pictures of the movies that leave no wholesome thoughts to dream on. Until we as mothers and teachers insist and see to it that the ban is placed on these things, I can see very little hope for improvement. But when you take from the youth and young man his dance hall with its jazz, his movie-man with his murderous plots, bank robberies, opium dens and vampire women, you must have something better to offer him. No individual can accomplish this alone, but it will take the home, the school and S BARGAINS This Week Dear Dresses and Coat Suits WHOLE FAMILY Will Convince You GOODS SHOP MILLE, N. C.

If Marcus Garvey comes out on top of the enemies he has made would it be an evidence of the survival of the fittest? We should all strain every possible nerve to save the Y. M. C. A. to Norfolk. We need it and are amply able to put it on its feet and keep it going, and we should do so. The French are making the Germans eat more crow than the Germans made the French eat after the war of 1870. If Otto von Bismarck were only here to eat some of the crow the joy of the French would be boundless. The Federal Senate has acted favorably upon a bill providing for a site for a monument, in Washington, to be built in memory of "the faithful Colored Mammies of the South," by the Jefferson Davis Chapter of the Daughters of the Confederacy. A great deal of opposition has developed against the erection of the proposed monument, but we do not think the arguments advanced are, convincing. If the Daughters of the Confederacy want to memorialize, the grand old "Colored Mammies" whom they loved and respected and who loved and respected them, and between whom ties of lasting affection and gratitude existed, we think it a gracious thing for the Daughters of the Confederacy to do. They cannot hate the descendants of those "Colored Mammies" as much as some would make it appear or they would not wish to build the monument, and the presence of the monument in Washington might serve to shame those Southern Congressional politicians, who insist upon keeping alive the race and color question to serve their selfish interests. And there is another side to the question. We have a son's love and admiration for those "Colored Mammies" of the past far greater than that the Daughters of the Confederacy can have, in spite of the fact that we and they may have imbibed milk at the same black breasts; they were the mothers who delivered us into life, and no stronger, and more heroic women than they ever took hold of the problems of freedom with more resolution and success in helping their husbands to make homes and educate their children after the Civil War. They deserve two monuments: One that we should build as their sons and one the Daughters of the Confederacy will build to their "Colored Mammies." There will be general interest among the readers of the JOURNAL AND GUIDE in the fact that the House Immigration and Naturalization Committee, in perfecting the new immigration laws, has decided to still further restrict alien immigration, reducing the present quota of each country from 3 to 2 per cent of the number allowed in 1880, Japanese and Chinese being almost entirely excluded, and Northern Europe being favored rather than Southern Europe, each country, however, being allowed 400 as a starter. The new rules, it is estimated will reduce the total number of aliens who may, enter the country from 368,023 to 188,000 per annum. There has been a persistent clamor among certain employers of unskilled labor that there is a scarcity of such and that the immigration restrictions should be so amended as to allow of more such labor coming in; but it was shown that this representation was false, as there is plenty of unskilled labor in the country and withal plenty of unemployment, but not labor to be had at the cheap rates that these aliens could be employed. Because of the restriction upon such alien labor the demand for unskilled Negro labor is growing steadily and will continue to do so. That is our positive gain. We do not need any more European immigration until our industries have been readjusted to normality in the price of labor and commodities of production, convulsed and thrown out of plumb by the World War, and now struggling desperately to right themselves. Until this has been done, and there are none unemployed who want to work, we do not need any addition to the labor supply of the country. Those who are framing the new restriction rules are acting upon this School or Retrenchment When the city board of education projected the new combination elementary and vocational high school building to provide for the enormous overflow and serious congestion in the colored schools it conceived an educational plant that in utility and range challenges the wonder and admiration of educational experts all over the country. At a more opportune time those who originated and worked out the details of construction and operation of such a plant as it is proposed to erect will receive due credit for their breadth of vision. What we aim to invite attention to in this article is the possible further serious compilation and retardation of a large part of the city's educational work, if the suggestion of the city manager and two members of the city council, to defer, or abandon erection of this building, is carried into effect. While council has, by the very generous support of Messrs. Martin, Butler and Herbert, voted to approve the school board's recommendation for an ordinance, the matter is by no means settled, as since the action of council Tuesday afternoon Messrs. Ashburner and Roper have reiterated their convictions that the city should call a halp upon expenditures for public improvements. There are, of course, considerations in the objections of those members of council and the city manager, that have weight and are not to be lightly dismissed. The city must keep well within the bounds of its bonding limit, and should not tax its citizens for expenditures, which might properly be deferred until normal revenues will take care of them, but it is entirely within reason to say that the request of the board of education for an appropriation to provide for the new school, building comes, precisely within the scope of expenditures for improvements which Mr. Ashburner declares should be "vitally necessary." At the present time there are, according to the estimates of the school board, three thousand children of the group which this proposed building will provide for, receiving only part time instruction in the city proper, and one thousand more in the annexed territory similarly situated. If these many children are already in the schools doing part time work, it is safe to say that almost an equal number are not in school at all, for the reason that there are no seats there for them. Norfolk has a colored population, according to the estimates of the health department, in excess of 55,000. It is safe to say that one-fourth of this number accrued during the past ten years, still, according to the estimates of the school board, only twenty-four additional class rooms have been provided for children of this group within the past ten years, and twelve of these rooms were an annex to the John T. West school to take care of the overflow due to, the annexation of Huntsville, Barboursville and Lindenwood. It is probably not sound business for the city at this time to extend its expenditures for such investments as docks, territorial extensions, waterfront improvements such as additional grain elevators, and perhaps the building of a city auditorium, as badly as one is needed, but it is a question which should challenge the serious thought of every Norfolk citizen, whether the city should retrench in the matter of investments in good citizenship, in good human values, such as the proposed school buildings will bring in returns, and this applies to white as well as colored. Three or four thousand children out of school, or three or four thousand children in school on part time, are, in either case an enormous liability upon the city. The elementary education of its citizens in a thorough and proper manner is unquestionably a government's best safeguard against insolence, crime, immorality, poverty and dishonesty. If the city does not the wisdom now of making the appropriation asked by the guardians of its educational interests to meet its urgent needs as they see it, the city will probably awaken ten years from now to the realization that while it saved considerable money on education it spent double the amount in enlarging its jail, in providing additional courts and judges and attachés, and in providing in various ways for vicious, criminal, idle and otherwise undesirable elements of its citizenship. In planning the proposed building on Princess Anne avenue, the board of education had an enormous problem to deal with and necessarily had to plan in considerable proportions. The board has met the problem with the conception of a plant that embraces every modern phase of elementary and vocational education as well as making provision for the high school course, which must cap the work done in the grades if the system is to contribute its quota to the training of those who are to teach. In range of utility the new building will be a miniature Hampton or Tuskegee, models of modern vocational methods that are attracting the educational experts of the world, all at a cost marvellously modest, in proportion to the extent of the plant. This expenditure, in the light of all the circumstances, appears to constitute an emergency—a thing that is vitally necessary—and if it is necessary to curtail other contemplated improvements, temporarily, in order to carry out the plans of the board of education, it would seem to be the part of wisdom, to do the latter. A Friend At Court One of the great disadvantages under which the colored people suffer as a class is that in the great majority of cases when anything comes up that vitally concerns them they have no one at "the seat of power" to speak for them. They have many to speak against them, but none delegated to advocate their cause. It is true, though, that in some recent conspicuous cases, the race has found that it had a volunteer "friend at court" to rise when the enemy least expected and speak out courageously and effectively. Such was the case a few days ago, when at a conference a lady told the school board that unless favorable action on the matter she was interested in was taken immediately she and her organization would appear before council next Tuesday and oppose the appropriation for the colored school. Judge Thomas H. Willcox, who represented the organization in question arose and said that if they took that position they would have to get another attorney, "as he refused to countenance such a move, in view of the urgent need for a new colored school and inasmuch as the school board has already pledged itself to the colored school." We have many friends that we are thankful for and Judge Willcox is one of them. Briefs and Spices (BY S. J. C.) Dr. Grant, at least accomplished one thing. Sure, he turned our attention momentarily from the European muddle. After all the soap box orator has never yet justified any suspicion that the opinion he has of himself is private. This "Farm Bloc" in the Senate seems to try to hold the same position a man holds in his household—tries to be an obstructionist. According to our notion money is not the root of all evil. Tasteless castor oil deserves some consideration. We see by the New York Age that another problem has arisen in Harlem in the form of fortune tellers. Or in other words, where there's a will there's a via. There have been 26,000 strikes called in this country within the last ten years according to the Industrial Digest, with New York heading the list. No reference, however, is made to those called on "Babe" Ruth during the last World's Series. The charge by reformers that our present civilization is going to the dogs may be due to the fact that their overhead charges did not meet with a howling success. Society Elites may file suit against men, who used their photos on bills advertising a burlesque show, news item, the Pittsburgh American. It will naturally follow that a smoky city never minds the soot. WAYSIDE WISDOM "Day by day in every way I'm getting more confused About this "Mammies" monument That's being much abused." "I've read the comments pro and con, In spite of it, they seem Brimfull of philosophic wit." Said 'Uncle Simon Green. "I've pondered o'er the problem much Until I'm nigh exhausted; I can't just see the point as yet, Why we should boll endorse it." "A monument to those who fell, Defending dear Old Glory In Flanders field 'mongat shot and shell, Would tell a different story." Letters From The People ENDORSES MOVEMENT FOR BETTER COMMUNITY SPIRIT Editor Journal and Guide, Sir: The community spirit educational program is the most wonderful thing imaginable, and will be productive of much good. Community spirit may be variously defined, but all definitions meaning practically the same. Personally, I feel the community spirit is that prompts, encourages and even forces people to act, all that are for the good and unplug of the community. I feel also it is the spirit which allows one to service, or money or both, to worthy movements and fortunate persons without looking at the gain, but being perfectly satisfied and happy with the good results brought about by such a sacrifice. We all realize that it has simply been a dream that we should be so self-satisfied with our racial condi- tion and with other people bearing our burdens. I think there are many who have never the matter serious thot; they only wanted it brought to their attention, and right into line you will feel. I am willing to get the community spirit, and I am sure thousands of others are. Let's get, the community, spirit, and put a plenty of, "sep" into it.

The Negro soldier accepted these promises for their face value. He has demonstrated to the whole that he can be handled upon by his own record. Upon return to 'his home he found that conditions had not changed; consequently his heart was filled with disappointment, as race riots and lynchings broke out and fear of race conflict gripped the country. A number of people were confident that good-will and co-operation cultivated between 'the races during the war could be perpetuated, so they called into conference a number of representative colored men; and in the spirit of prayer they adopted a platform upon which all races could sit. Planks include justification and reduction of all race troubles. The Church makes no pretensions to having discovered a short cut to its objective, or to have brought into existence a solution for its problems, when the record of lynching for the past 37 years is examined. Secular laws will not do all that is necessary unless every Church as such and every Christian join hands and work together with it. You can take such lynching yoke upon you; your yoke is easy and, my burden is light." Annually, the President of the United States implores the Nation to return thanks unto God for His blessings. We look forward to seeing what will be inserted in the document that will direct the minds of people to the fact that America has stamped out bitter race feelings and established better race relations.

When Mary Alice Richardson was led to the altar twelve years before by her youthful lover, she was a very happy girl. For weeks she lived in a world of happy dreams, wore pretty clothes, and had hard to be a pretty little mother. She did very well and managed to save something each month out of the tiny incoma. Then came James, the very image of mother, and his disposition that many times the young mother was proned to tears trying to manage her young child. This complicated matters and Alice felt for the little things that had made married life so beautiful, to her and James, Sr. When two years later little Helen opened her, baby eyes to the light the little father and mother thought their cup of happiness was as if their other children had come until the number had reached the sixth mark. Still the mother tried hard to keep up a semblance of old time good humer and feed her brood as best she could so that propensity would be bodily young children want everything and the Richardson's were just like other children. They wanted this and they wanted that and they wanted the owl and the pussy cat, and they wanted the poor Alice wondered if they would ever be satisfied. "Hello, old girl," said James one evening, "let's go to a show tonight. You stay in so much that you are getting real grumpy." Alice blushed, "what do I have to wear? And besides little Mary needs a pair of shoes and I would feel bad to spend money for a show when the children need something." "I wouldn't. You cannot give the kids anything. Give them A pill and fix yourself up and go out with me," said James. "You go along James; I don't care to go to the show. I wouldn't enjoy WHAT IS GOING ON IN THE CHURCHES Services began at this church with sunrise prayer meeting which was well attended. A fine Sunday, Sunday, was held at the usual hour.

When all the small children were in bed the mother and two older children began reading the paper. Mary chose the Brown Brownie and down and back again. "Mummy," she finally whispered, "may I ask?" "Yes, honey sap, what do you wish, mother is listening." "You read what the paper says about the Thrift Club, and then let James and me join and give us time to work and see what we can do." Soon three heads were busy scanning the Brownie news and with paper and pencil they figured what might be done by a systematic working out of Peek-a-boo's plan. The mother was as anxious to begin work as the children, because it was work that could be carried on in spare time and that must not be daddy about it children because I want to surprise him." When the three workers reported their work for the first month and the second for the first check, "The first goes to Mumy," shouted Mary; "she hasn't had a new thing for area." "And the next to you I suppose," she replied. "Do not quarrel children, I would rather have the big editor open a savings account and when the end of the year comes there will be enough for all," and Alice to them.

BRIGGS Instructor of Theology and the English Bible, Virginia Seminary and College, Lynchburg, Va. GOLDEN TEXT. The Son of man came to seek and to save that which was lost-Luke 19:10. 1. An Earnest Seeker-verses, I.4. To get the full ingestion of this incident the two-fold character of Jericho. It was a city of both priests and publicans. About fifteen miles northeast of Jerusalem, it was a favorite retreat of the temple services. Its palm and basilam were thought by Anthony a present worthy being conferred on his royal mistress, Cleopatra; it was the place of King Herod; and being the center of Judan valley whose fertility—the fronts of winter never checked it was; and the teachers. Thus religion and commerce met here without minging; and Christ in choosing the house of Zachceus for conferred on his royal mistress, Cleopatra; it was the site of one of the galecees of being the center of Juden-valley whose fertility—the fronts of winter never checked it was a headquarters of tax-gatherers. Thus reliance on the house without mingling; and Christ in choosing the house of Zoeucus for his resting place passed by the houses of the rabbis and priests of Judah, and is the journey to the capital all his followers believed, he was about to establish the theocracy." Abott. A chief publican by name Zacaeus lived at Jericho, and he was rich. "Zacaeus was a Jew who had accepted as tax-gatherer under the Romans, and was made chief among the publicans-a son of the guilder over inferior officers on the revenue service." Lamar publicans were considered a problem. A rich publican was branded a heartless scion. Zacchaeus was desirous of seeing Jesus two apparently insurmountable obstacles were overcome: the life of the life, a crowd; and his smallness of stature. When a determined man cannot find a way, he usually makes Zacchaeus climb into a cave, where he aspires as he passed that way. "It would have taken a Saul to see him well; there seemed no hope for a small man like Zachaeus; and had Zachaeus had a small heart in his bosom; he would have gone home and said it was impossible. He had had a great wish to grow rich, and he had a great way to way that. And now he had a great will to see Jesus, and he was not the sort of person to be stopped. The whole-hearted search for God is always crowned." Rev. George H. Morrison, D. D. 2. Zeachensis Receives Jesus and Salvation Verees 5-10.

There is nothing of the mysterious, supernatural or miraculous about the power within your being. You already have it.

I have taken anything from a man wrongly, I restore him to God. S. 5. The Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost. V. 10. "Man had lost its way utterly away from the home of God, of fields of truth, from the path of wisdom, from the foundations of understanding, blind and mineral, in forbidden ways: was stumbling on the dark mountains of errors and sin." And the Son of man can seek this erring and lost race, to lead it back again to restore it to its heritage in wisdom, in righteousness, in God. Christianity and Business. Can the Golden Rule be practiced in business? Alacer Leon says that it can not be. It would mean financial ruin to the employer who tried it he claims. If he tried his employees to work harder, were he in their shoes, his business would go to the wall. "Christianity teaches that all men are brothers. It bids us bear one another burden. Christian women bear one another's keeper. Modern business is competitive rather than co-operative. It looks out for Number 1 first." It sometimes builds them up. Christianity (holds that the same principles of good-will and mutual helpfulness that hold between man and man in private life) holds that Christian women bear one another's keeper. The Golden Rule of wages is give an employee a good living compensation; not the largest dividends to those who have money invested but a fair and moderate return. Golden Rule of labor is the best way to work, but good work, and the most and best work possible on the part of the worker as long as; that work does not. *not-jeopardy*-health and even in buying the Golden Rule has to say, buy from reputable dealers, pay a fair "Christian business dealing, require Christian consciences, and to establish them is a fundamental and exceedingly important task of the Christian church."

"The wages of faith is its death," eloquently named Rev. Long in his second sermon of the series on the Epaculistic Horses; at the Bank Street Baptist Church Sunday morning. With wide historical research and scholarly insight into the causes which have maintained nations in power and influence or been responsible for their decadence, the speaker emphatically asserted that nations and empires in all ages have stored their wealth. "They have obeyed or have not obeyed the moral law. Correlating the religious with the secular events, of which the red horse was the symbol at the time of the vision of John on Patmos, Rev. Long referred to the weakness and backsets, the church experienced then the inevitable consequence of the corruption within her walls of a previous age and exhorted his hearers to guard against similar evils in the present The sermons on the *Apocalyptic Horses now, being preached by Rev.

Strange Women of Bible, Sermon Topic Continued from Page One "Jericho would have fallen without Rahab's lie. Jacob would have inherited the blessings of family leadership from his mother. And you can make it today without the low, mean devilishness to which so many frequently resort. It is not smooth lying that brings success to the business man. It is not concealed crookedness or cleverness in covering up dirty tracks that wins, in the long run anywhere. More sharpness with no conscience as it happens, eventually put bounds to the influence of any man in any walk of life. "Looked at, positively, Rahab's sharpness lay in her close observance of the trend of events and her ability to forecast the future from the cumulative evidence in recent history. To the rest of the secret lay in her ability to personal advantage. The lesson stands out clear as sunlight. Plow beneath the surface in your thinking. Consider just one example of the need for such accuracy in the thinking of the average man. The average man reads or hears of the 'pulling' of a house or so in different parts of the world. He concludes right of that the de-legalizing mistake. He fails to recall history to see how far we have come from those old days. Since the closing of the official red light district we have come to feel that the man has no more right in this matter than the woman, once our leading statesman could have another promising to provide 'likely' looking colored wench as a part of our government. But the other day in Raleigh, N.

COLORED FARMERS FORM FEDERATION Will Aid Race Farmers in Finance and Production; Memberships Wanted.

The purposes of the organizers are to enroll every Negro farmer in the country into membership of the National Federation; to develop co-operating marketing; better farming; direct after sales production and to secure for colored farmers all of the benefits enjoyed by the farmers of other races. It is planned to have members of the National Federation meet each year in a national convention for the purpose of discussing the problems that are peculiar to colored farmers. An effort will be made at headquarters to keep in touch with farmers affecting agricultural interests and to keep the members of the federation informed. It is the hope of the founders of the National Federation of Colored Farmers to make life on the farm more attractive and to build up in this Nation a group of organized, satisfied and influential producers.

THE GAME AT WASHINGTON After a few minutes, the team stumbles against the lead, school teams we were invited to play Howard at Washington. The game was played at the American League park, then in the National League, at 7th and Florida Avenue. That year Howard had one of the best eleveners in her career, and she appeared and we received quite an owenation when we marched on the field led by Captain "Paul" Carter. Howard's goal had not been crossed that year and she was determined to keep her slate clean. She did a double pass to Ed. Crocker and Crocker to me. I ran the distance of the field, being superbly guarded and protected by Scott. At Howard's ten yard line, Leigh Hipper, the pitcher, tackled to down me, but the impetus of the long run broke his collar bone. He was taken to Freedman's Hospital, just back of the grounds, and I being marked thereafter, returned to Norfolk on crutch. CROCKER AND THE LADY IN THE GRANDSTAND. Crocker (Ed). a well known young lady of Washington who was present at the game. Receiving the ball, he ran directly towards his own goal. It was a most laughable occurrence, but the dazzle of her beauty, doubtless explains his bewilderment. However, he made good. "MAJOR" BANKS AND THE ICE WATER "Major" Banks was known as a hard and tough player. Standing over six feet, well developed and muscular, he always gave a good account of himself and was in every play. **Comes To Attacks** *Plantation Days*; a mammoth musical comedy with 40 characters, will appear at the Attacks Theatre next week beginning Monday.

In memory of our dear wife and mother. MRS. JANE MORRIS who departed this life Feb. 15, 1920. Genus but not forgotten. Husband, Ms. W. H. Morris Children, Mrs. Midge, Vernon, Miss. Mother, Edith H. Morris It was in a game with Shaw that we played on Christmas day. The weather, was very cold and the ground frozen hard. In a flying wedge play, (then allowed) Banks was left sprawling after, attempting to lift up, his hands unconscious in his eyes being closed and his body flatting. As is customary a bucket of water was brought into requisition; cold as the weather was. Someone suggested pouring some on him, but, "Major," suddenly came to and wayed his hands in protest.

MOST OF OLD MEN MADE GOOD Joe Paige is a registered pharmacist, "Peek" Mills and Phil Scott are associates, Oakley Gudge was associate-editor of Mathew Larsen, and his untimely death. Ed.

WOULD ADVISE ATHLETICS FOR EVERYONE I know of no greater asset to good citizenship and health than the free, fair indulgence in athletics. It helps a man to take care of himself by spirit of himself competition and spirit of the brute from him. I believe sincerely that the early athletic training, received by us contributed very largely to the health a majority of us enjoy. As these articles interlap football and baseball, I shall treat of them as they come to my mind. Memory, like lands, is hard and many incidents come as I write, which I had entirely forgotten, until I began this article.—To be continued next week.
