North Carolina Legislature Spends $1,500,000.00 For Negro Education CITY EDITION Norfolk Journal and Guide 5 CENTS AT ALL NEWS STANDS Sixty-Seventh Congress Goes Into History Noted For Things It Did Not Do But Congress Did Some Good Work. Many Important Measures Passed Stand Out as Constructive Legislation. SOME ABLE FIGURES WILL RETIRE TO PRIVATE LIFE By MORR18 BROWN (Washington Correspondent) Washington, D. C., Mar. 5—Marked by bickering and filibustering to the very last, the Sixty-seventh Congress passed into history at noon on yesterday. MUCH IMPORTANT LEGISLATION Notwithstanding the fact that its passing was unmourned, the Sixty-seventh Congress, coming in the reconstruction period, will take its place among the great congresses because of the legislation enacted. Yet the measures which it failed to pass must detract from its glory. How well it accomplished its work can best be gleaned from a resume of the important measures which passed. Its errors of omission may be seen from the legislation which failed, and a general balance may be thus struck. Among the important measures which passed are the emancipation of the emancipation act, the act creating the Federal Budget Bureau, the resolution declaring peace with Germany, revision of taxes, the Fordney-McCumber Tariff Act, the act limiting immigration by quotas, the act creating twenty-four additional Federal judgeships, the Naval Scraping Bill to carry out the Departmental Conference treaties, the bill extending rural credit facilities, the filled milk act to prevent removal of butter fat and substitution of oils, and the British Debt refunding bill. FAILED OF PASSAGE A peculiar coincidence is that the measures in which Negroes were primarily interested are among the more than 14,000 bills which failed of passage. These bills are as follows: The Dyer anti-lynching bill, the Liberian loan of $5,000,000, revision of the Esch-Cummings Transportation Act, the soldier bonus, the ship subsidy bill, reorganization of executive departments, American membership in Internation Court of Justice, a proposed amendments to the civil institution, including abolition of further tax-exempting provisions for convening Congress in January instead of nearly a year later, abolition of the Electorial College and regulation of child labor. EXECUTIVE NOMINATIONS In the matter of executive nominations, requiring confirmation by the Senate, the Negro fared badly. There were five executive nominations of colored men made during the Sixty-seventh Congress. Three were confirmed and two were rejected. The first nomination was that of Henry Lincoln Johnson to be recorder of deeds. His nomination was rejected on the personal objections of the late Senator Tom Watson, of Georgia. The nominations of the Reverend Solomon P. Hood to be minister to Liberia, Arthur G. Froe to be recorder of deeds, and Robert H. Terrell to be a judge of the municipal court of the District of Columbia, were confirmed. Then came the nomination of Walter L. Cohen to be collector of customs at the port of New Orleans. His nomination was rejected by a vote of 35 to 27, on the personal objections of Senators Brussard and Ransdell, of Louisiana. MANY DISTINGUISHED FIGURES RETIRED With the sounding of the gavels in the two houses as the hour of twelve o'clock, noon, arrived, many distinguished figures were retired with the Congress. Prominent among them were such personages as Porter J. McCumber, North Dakota, who has been in the North Dakota-Cow-four years and has been chairman of the powerful finance committee since the death of Boise Penrose; Harry S. New, of Indiana, close personal and political friend of the President, who has become Postmaster General; Joseph S. EXCELSIOR BAND ELECTS OFFICERS The annual meeting of the Excelsior Band was held at the band rooms Sunday, March 4th. The following officers were elected for the coming year: Walter E. Lawrence, president; Chas. Butts, vice-president; Geo Elliott, Sr., leader and manager; BenJ. Jones, ass. leader and manager; Oscar Fields, drum major; Geo. Elliott, Jr., secretary. Board of Examiners: Frank Smith, R. A. Brown, W. H. Green. Sick Stewards: Abe Shields, R. L. Jenkins, Ruffin. Sharp Differences of Opinion as to Propriety of Move Sponsored by Daughters of the Confederacy. Bill Passed. MORE OPPOSED TO THAN FAVOR THE MONUMENT Washington, D. C.—March 6--The Senate a few hours before adjourning passed the bill before sored by Senator Williams of Mississippi, providing for the erection of a monument to the memory of the "Faithful Colored Mamies of the South." Special to Journal and Guide Washington, D. C—The proposal of the Daughters of the Confederacy, backed by the Southern contingent in Congress to erect a monument in the Nation's Capital to the memory of the "Black Mammies" of the old South has nearly run the gamut of discussion. Numerous individuals and organizations who do not look upon the proposal of the Southern ladies with favor continue to oppose with all their might. In a letter to the Washington Post, Neval H. Thomas, prominent District citizens, says that we must be forgiven for the Southern pain that wishes to raise this monument across the path of Negro progress, hence we must 'fear the Greeks, though bearing gifts'" Mr. Thomas' letter is in part as follows: "If they are grateful for the centuries of enforced soil that they wrung from these devoted Kurdishmen, let them support the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill to give protection to the descendants of "mammy" whom they love so much. Let them secure a Ninemonth school year for two million of little black children who are determined to face the world with all of its racial suppression this same spirit which wishes to raise this monument, inflicts. Let them辖害 and the thousand other辖害 and restrictions those beloved mammies' children suffer every day. They forget that "mammy" loved her children, that she labored, suffered and died in the dream that some day they would be free. We have nearly three thousand ladies of color in the secondary schools of this city who are aspiring to nobler service in the professions, in all the higher callings of life, to membership in groups for self-culture and greater usefulness. I know the soul of a slave mother, and I know that it would fright from heaven at this marble call in the Nation's call, a powerful speaker to the Negro that he is to venture to walk to lowpath of human service. No, let us have liberty, guaranteed by our constitution and the impassioned utterances of our statesmen, an enduring monument which will show true appreciation to "mammy", and make us appear consistent before the eyes of the civilized world."

Learning of Michal's love for David, Saul lays down a difficult task as the price of his daughter's hand—the slaying of one hundred Philistines. The gallant young captain meets the challenge and receives Michal in marriage. That makes Saul bath and all more. He achingly hits him assassins to put him out of the way. "But here, again, the love of this little woman shows up. Michal warns David, assists him to escape, throws his would-be murderers off the trail by a lie and a clever ruse, then lies to her father for her own protection; and David escapes, the king's GOOD OPENINGS FOR MEDICAL AND ALLIED WORKERS GOOD OPENINGS FOR MEDICAL AND ALLIED WORKERS Needed to Make Up General Staff of U.

BIG CROWDS GREET MORRIS IN CAROLINA BIG CROWDS GREET MORRIS IN CAROLINA Eloquence Thrills Citizens of Tarboro, Durham, Oxford, Henderson and Weldon. Tarboro, N. C.—It was an inspiring and enthusiastic audience of both races that greeted Charles Satchlec Morris, Jr., of Norfolk, on his initial appearance here Sunday afternoon. More than fifteen hundred people clamored for admission to the auditorium in which he spoke. He was accorded such an ovation both before and after his address as has been given few people here. Introduced by the Reverend Doctor C. C. Staton, as "One of the foremost figures of his time," the eloquent Virginian wove the spell of the tongue on the great audience more than an hour and half. Even the merging mass was disappointed when he resumed his seat and begged him to continue the delivery of a speech which old residents here pronounced the ablest ever heard from a Tarboro platform. Mr. Morris chose as his subject, "The Hour has Come," which he has made celebrated. No more appealing nor opportune message could have been brought here at this time. While a very practical address many and beautiful were the oratorical flights. When at one moment the orator was awoken by chaos of the world at one period, several persons unable to contain themselves longer in the face of the brilliant word painting fairly (Continued on Page Ten) plans are all upset! Michal, the little woman whose love upset the plans of a king! "But the thought strikes me," the speaker declared, "that woman's love still upsets the plans of men. So we often behold the young woman who follows the dictates of her heart, using powers and pooled suitors, priests and friends. And who does not know of the mother's love that outwits economic necessity and safeguards the future of her boys and girls by making undreamed of sacrifices to keep them in school? Or take the case of the loving wife.

Mrs Credle came here from Newbern to attend the party. She and Cameron had been friends for some time. Mrs. Cameron was jealous. Speaks Here Sunday CHAS. SATCHELL MORRIS, JR. Will Address Armory Hall Meeting Sunday Fresh from an extended Southern tour during which he spoke before some of the largest audiences of white and colored people who ever heard an American orator, Mr. Morris will address the citizens· of Norfolk-Portsmouth at a mamoth inter-racial mass meeting at Armory Hall this Sunday at 3:30 o'clock p. m. A section of seats will be reserved for white citizens. A chorus directed by Madame Mandela Wright-Jackson will sit in City Manager Ashburner will deliver a brief address. W. W. Foreman will introduce the speaker and Rev. C. M. Long will preside. Hi School Faculty Thanks Business Men The faculty and students of Booker T. Washington High School thank the business and professional men of Norfolk who gave a prize to the honor pupil of the Commercial Course. The presentation was made Commencement day to Miss Athelma Rogers by Mr. P. B. Young, president of the Guide Publishing Company. This act of generosity and interest is an encouragement to the shop and girls as well as to the who are seeking jobs in Norfolk School Sysm in its efforts to prepare the boys and girls to fill places of usefulness in the community. We feel sure there are others who are interested and will gladly add their names to this list. From the fund contributed we were enabled to make an addition of two books to our library for use in the English classes of the Commercial Department. The names of those who created the fund are as follows: Messrs. L. W. Bright, J. C. Brooks, C. Carter, J. Compton, M. R. Jackson, Geo. R. Moore, Jto. R. Riddick, Wm. M. Rich, F. G. Russell, Attys, J.

During David's exile saul dies by suicide, David succeeds to the throne and marries a number of women, while Michal is married to political Then for purely political reasons, not for loving Michal sends for Michal to bring her from a happy home. Arriving at the palace Michal is evidently reduced to the level of a mere handmaid, in his favor. What return was this for what Michal's love had meant to him? Her love had made him what he was. And now to have him treat her like a dog! A. &. T. COLLEGE GIVEN $601,000 APPROPRIATION State Accepts Resposibility for Higher Education of Race in Making Institution Able to Do Real College Work. PRESIDENT DUDLEY MADE APPEAL TO LEGISLATURE Social to Journal and Guide Greensboro, N. C.—The educational progress of the Negro goes forward in North Carolina. The Legislature which has just closed, appropriated about a million and one-half dollars for higher education among Negroes. The A. and T. College, the chief Negro institution in the State was given $601,000, the largest appropriation that this State has ever made to a Negro school. People from all over the State are congratulating president J. B. Dudley on his wonderful success before the Legislature. The A. and T. College is the only institution in the State, whose chief spokesman before the Legislature was a Negro. President Dudley appeared before the Appropriation Committee and presented the needs of the institution so effectively that he was given practically everything which he asked for. SHAW GETS NEW SCIENCE BUILDING SHAW GETS NEW SCIENCE BUILDING General Education Board Makes Gift of $65,000. Will Be In "A" College Class Next Fall. Special to Journal and Guide Raleigh, N. C.—Further evidence of progress at Shaw University and of the ambition of this institution to be an "A" college by the opening of the next school year was afforded by the announcement of President J. L. Peacock in the chapel Monday morning, February 26, that the General Education Board had appropriated $65,000 for the Science building. Complete renovation of the structure formerly used for the Leonard Medical School will begin at once, and when the building is finally equipped in the fall it is intended that it shall not be second to any science hall in the South. The arrangement of the various laboratories will be in keeping with the most modern architecture. The physics laboratories will be the grand hall, and the errors due to vibrational effects may be lessened; and the chemical and biological laboratories will be on the upper floors in order to increase the efficiency of illumination. Architect H. P. S. Keller, of Raleigh, drew the plans. PROF. BRAWLEY JOINS FACULTY The classroom at the institution also keeps pace with outward manifestations of progress. With the New Year in January, came Professor Benjamin Brawley, formerly a teacher at Howard and Morehouse, perhaps best known to the public as the author of such books as "A Short History of the English Drama," and "A Social History of the American Negro." Professor Brawley is a minister as well as a teacher and has already not only rejuvenated the department of English, but also entered actively into the religious life of the state. The Professor of Physics, upon whom so largely rests the actual responsibility of the changes in the general field of science that are now being made, is Mr. R. A. Thornton, a graduate of Howard University, who is a most progressive student as well as an able teacher, and a man who has already left his impress upon the institution. "Many a woman's loving heart has been broken by ingritude and harsh treatment. That wife who passed up your betters because her heart turned to you, what bitter hours she has seen because of your brutality and infidelity! That mother who has put you where you are, through tears and sweep, in steaming tub of water on her knees in some building, what heartaches she has had because you have not even been decent to her, much less kind!" Rev. Bowline has announced as the closing subject in the present series, "The Woman Whose Ruin was a National Calamity." Honorable mention will be made of all who guess correctly the character or incident on which this scripter will be based. The Week's News of Portsmouth, Suffolk, Franklin and Suburban Towns MRS.

A faithful sister, both loving and kind And a better sister no one could find. Sleep on dear Arzula, sleep on; And take your rest, We loved you clearly. But God loved you best.

WORKING TO THE BEST ADVANTAGE By Barbara John Davis I know right well that he who would succeed may their trust must carefully husband his time must make every hour count. What I maintain is that, while every hour has its duties, they are not all muscular, and that the farmer who would wisely and surely thrive must have time for mental improvement as well as for physical exertion. I know there are farmers who decline to take regularly any newspaper, even one devoted to agriculture, because they say they can't afford it, or have no time to read it. I say that no farmer can afford to be without a. To attempt it is a blunder and a loss, and if he has children growing up around him it is a grievous a grievous wrong. If every hard-working farmer who says he cannot read in summer, because it is a hurry season, he must to ad apart two hours of each day for reading and reflection, he would not only be a wiser and happier man than if he gave every hour to mere labor—he would live in greater comfort and acquire more property. To dig is easily learned, but learn how, where, and when to dig is the achievement of a life-time. There is no greater and yet no more common a mistake than that which confounds incessant exhausting muscular effort with the highest efficiency in farming. I know men who have toiled "early and late," summer and winter, with resolute energy and ample strength, through their forty years of manhood, yet failed to secure a competence, not because they have been especially unfortunate, as they are apt to suppose, but because they lacked the knowledge and skill, the wisdom and science, that would have enabled them to make their exertions tell most effectively. They have been life-long workers, but they have not known how to work to the greatest advantage. God Expelled From Church, Says Chaplain Denver, Feb.—(Crusader Service) —The Colorado House of Representatives adopted a resolution of censure this afternoon over the sentiments expressed today in the opening prayer of Chaplain J. R. Kader. Sections of the prayer which drew fire were: God our courts are corrupt: God has been exiled from our churches: our pulpits are filled with essayists: our boys and girls are going to work: our laboring men are going to work with empty pails, while we stare and the middlemen wax fat on exorbitant prices: our banks are bursting with money." The widow gave two milies (all she had!) too many christians give the widow's mite (about two cents-2 per cent of their earnings to the church.)

C.—"We praise God for what He is; we praise Him for what He does. It is base, indeed, to neglect to return thanks for God's daily and special benefits to us and ours. It would betray hearts unworthy and unable to receive His richer blessings. But to fail to praise Him for what He is injures us and defrauds Him still more." This is an extract from the most eloquent and powerful address delivered by Prof. Jno. F. Whitehurst, principal of the Hobgood Training School and also conductor of Reading Circle work in Halifax county, during a mass meeting of both white and colored people. In the offset of his address he appealed to both races strongly, on the subject, "What Has God Wrought." Those present were satisfied that their hearts and minds had been stirred to realize that if for nothing else, they could feel thankful and give praise, that it was a blessing to have in the community daily a man like Prof. Whitehurst. He has worked untiringly with us since his arrival in September, 1922. He has done more for our community than any one that has been to us.

SATURDAY, MARCH 10, 1923 The Continent, in a recent issue tells us, that Mississippi enjoys the distinction of being the only state in the Union, which by constitutional provision prohibits the bequeathing of property to charitable objects. Does this explain why Mississippi has an unsavvy reputation along with Georgia for doing uncharitable things to her weak and defenseless citizens. And we wonder if Georgia has both a constitutional and a statutory provision against charitable objects? She surely leads in uncharitable acts against her weak and defenseless citizens. The Editor of the Norfolk JOURNAL AND GUIDE, favors the erection of the monument to the "Mammies" proposed by the Daughters of the Confederacy. He says: "We think it a gracious thing for the Daughters of the Confederacy to do." All right, Editor Young, we do not object to your thinking so, but we do object to the "Uncle Tom" spirit that prompts your thinking.—Washington Tribune. We don't know what the Editor of the Tribune means by the "Uncle Tom Spirit," but we do know that "Uncle Tom" was a gentleman. He was civil, polite, considerate, generous and gentle, and did not lose his good manners everytime some one differed with him. If more people showed these qualities this world would be a vastly better place in which to live. Mr. Bryan Wants to Run for President The Democratic party is as much to be pitied as the Republican party because of lack of available candidates for the Presidential nomination. Neither party was ever so poor in this respect as at this time. It may be on this account that William Jennings Bryan, the stormy petrel of National politics and the idol of the Democratic party in other days, appears to have made a bid for Southern Democratic support for the nomination next year and for the fourth time, in the brazen address delivered by him at the annual dinner of the Southern Society, in Washington, recently, in advocacy and justification of "White Supremacy." It was the advocacy and justification of a politicalagogue who had forgotten the fate of Henry Clay and Daniel Webster, who flirted with the Slave Power in the hope to capture the Presidency, and failed in the flirtation; they did more, they wrote a black mark across their records as statesmen which time will not efface. But Mr. Bryan is not a statesman; he was born a politician and he will die one. Mr. Bryan left Nebraska for Nebraska's good and has been living in Florida during the past ten years. He wanted to be elected Senator in the last shake up in Florida but he failed to connect. The Boston Christian Science Monitor's Washington correspondent reports Mr. Bryan as follows: "He argued that the Jeffersonian doctrine about 'all men' being 'created free and equal' could not be literally interpreted or enforced where there is a manifest injustice, one racial civilization and another, such conditions, the superior civilization, he said, would and must be the ascendant factor. As such ascendancy has prevailed in the south, Mr. Bryan pointed out, it had made for justice for the black people who were oppressed by whites, protected blacks and their rights in full measure. "Mr. Bryan told how that for a "decade he had seen those laws at work. They had convinced him no other system was possible. Both the women of the north, who were members of meeting its race problem to be reprehennable, specially would realize the unwisdom of such criticism, once they had, as he had, direct contact with 'the real thing.' Mr. Bryan declared Dixie's method is immeasurable pre-renotation of a rhetoristic deocrines of Massachusetts or the experiment of Illinois." Mr. Bryan's conclusion that the laws made and enforced by the white South for the government of the Negro people, "even if fashioned by whites, protected blacks and their rights in full measure" and other like statements "kept his hearers in a mingled chorus of applause and cheers." And that is the discouraging thing about it, that such glaring falsehoods could be received by intelligent men as truth and applauded to the echo. How can the splendid body of white and colored people in the South who are working for better relations between the races take heart of hope when such false talk can find an intelligent Southern audience to applaud it? Let the Southern Democracy get behind Mr. Bryan and nominate him for the Presidency, if they can. He would be the easiest man to defeat. Break Even on Migration The Manufacturers' Record has responded to the inquiries of "many Southern people who write to say that the exodus of Negro laborers is becoming an acute problem," by furnishing statistics to show that what the South losses in Negro migration to the North it recovers by migration of whites South, and that the movement is not new at all but runs over a long period of years. It finds that of the total Negro population of 9,716,659 in 1920, only 725,000 Southern born Negroes were living in the North, while some 50,000 Negroes born in the North and other places were living in the Soph. It finds that the movement of white persons from the North to the South is a trend in the same sense that it is of the investment trend. "All over the South there is evident a new vigor and a more enthusiastic view as to the outlook." The Manufacturers' Record does not think that Negro migration is due to the causes usually alleged—such as better wages and living conditions, better schools, less discriminating laws and the prevalence of mob-law—but rather that the causes are purely economic, especially that the boll weevil is making the cultivation of cotton unprofitable, throwing many Negroes out of employment. It thinks that when the boll weevil has been conquered and the production of cotton has again become profitable the Negro will return to "the plow and the hoe," as "he does not like the kind of work he has to do in the North, nor the conditions under which he has to work, and the sun is warm in Dixie." The Manufacturers Record brings out the fact that there is a steady increase in the white population by natural increase, while there is by the showing of the census reports a steady falling off in the Negro increase. It is not easy to explain this steady decline, but we have a notion that much of it has been due to the census takers. In some of the large cities of the South the white census takers would not go into the densely populated Negro districts and make the proper canvass of the people. We ought to make a determined effort to have Negro census takers assigned to segregated Negro districts when the next census is taken. There is nothing alarming in the migration situation anyway, we believe. The more Negroes who move away and the more outside whites who come in, ought to make for better conditions for all concerned. But, however much the Negro becomes distributed throughout the Nation, and however the problems growing out of race relations may become National rather than sectional, this fact stands out clear against the horizon of National well being, that the Negro must have conceded to him more and better protection for his life and property, and a juster apportionment of the common tax funds for the education of his children and the improvement of his property.

"UNCLE JOE" CANNON GOES While in the Senate, Senators Freedingusy, of New Jersey, and Sutherland, of West Virginia, were singing their swan songs, the one moment the enforcement was the ovation in the House to "Uncle Joe" Cannon, of Illinois, who is among the 127 members of the House who will be missing in the next Congress. After having seen service for forty years in the lower house, he goes out voluntarily. The distinguished "lame ducks" retired in the House include Andrew M. Sullivan, of the audiciary committee and author of the prohibition enforcement act which bears his name; Joseph W. Fordney—not a "lame duck," however—chairman of the ways and means committee and joint author of the anti-trafficking law; Miss Alice M. Robertson, of Oklahoma, who voted against the anti-lynching bill; Phil Campbell, chairman of the rules committee, who could arbitrarily defeat any legislation which he desired, and Meyer London, the lone socialist, of New York, who was defeated for reelection. SLEMP RETIRES While C. Bascom Slemp, of the ninth congressional l district of Virginia, voluntarily retires, nevertheless his election to remain at home is and has been a source of pleasure to Negroes generally. By virtue of being a member of Congress and the Republican National Committee, Mr. Slemp has contributed largely to the elimination of the Negro in southern Republican politics. RECESS APPOINTMENTS Shortly before leaving for Florida, President Harding made a number of recess appointments, one of which was given to Charles W. Anderson, of New York, to be collector of internal revenue for the third district. He was created under the provisions of an act finally approved on Sunday. The Anderson appointment is somewhat reassuring at this time coming immediately after the rejection of Mr. Cohen, and it was made to bolster up the morale of Negro Populists, that Mr. Anderson will be confirmed when the Senate convenes. The office pays $8,000 per year. A recess appointment was also given to Joseph W. Tolbert, member of the Republican National Committee from South Carolina, to be United States marshal for the western district of that state. Mr. Tolbert also mentioned, but both times failed of confirmation. Senator Dial, Democrat, of South Carolina, charged that Mr. Tolbert had been trafficking in Federal patronage and produced evidence and witnesses to substantiate his charges. The sub-committee, to which his nomination was submitted, rejected the mittee refused to favorably report the nomination. The President was urged to withdraw it, but he refused to do so. This is his second recess appointment. WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT THE JOURNAL AND GUIDE Editor Journal and Guide I am a constant reader of your wonderful paper, which is the best Negro paper in America.

Race Builder Editor Journal and Guide: check for a $200 for another year's subscription to your very valuable paper, which I think finds an important place in race building. O. B. TAYLOR, M. D. Brownsville, Tenn. Letters From The People Tuberculosis Editor Journal and Guide, Sir: Why should we tarry in the matter of keeping ourselves clear of Tuberculosis? "According to the report of Irving M. Berry of the Virginia Tuberculosis Association ordination of Tuberculosis work through Virginia has been effectively accomplished during the last year. At the beginning of 1922, there were only three recognized organizations functioning as Tuberculosis work under the jurisdiction of the berculosis Association. To date there are twenty-nine county organizations and eight permanent clinics who report their findings to the Association monthly. Eight hundred and ninety-one patients have been admitted to the hospital since the ninety of these were discovered thru the medium of the permanent clinics." The above quoted paragraph shows the marvellous work that is being done in the matter of safeguarding the public health against its one chief enemy disease—tuberculosis—by an aroused public spirit to combat it. Shall we who constitute the city of Norfolk's public, be less on the alert against the white plague than other cities in the Old Dominion? Shall we not add among the other agencies that are contributing to our city's safety by known mite in making it a city of disease; in making it a pleasant place of abode, fair to look upon, and not a place of terror to be shunned because of contamination with the dreaded disease of Tuberculosis: We can go a long way toward the accomplishment of the end in view by having as inhabitants of the city of Norfolk a community of purpose in securing between us individuals and by presenting a solid front against the common enemy in the matter of disease—consumption.

Olive Church Sunday, Sunday school was largely attended. Rev. W. Barrett, pastor of Monument from Luke 20: 25, Rev. J. W. Barrett, a white minister of Lamberts Point, preached a fine sermon at 3: 30. At night the Sons of Norfolk delivered a sermon delivered another masterful sermon. BANK STREET CHURCH BANK STREET CHURCH and congregation he the pastor. Rev. C. M. Long, preach a masterly and eloquent sermon on the subject, "The Crucifixion of Christ and Its Benefits to man," at the Bank Street Church. Referring to the fact that Christ was in keeping with the Bible, and the prayer brought home to the minds of his hearers with singular analysis into the workings of human nature what must have been the anguish of Christ on the cross, knowing that he was being put to death by the anguish of his brothers, who were "blood of his blood and flesh of his flesh." "The world hates those who are trying to do right. What the world wants today is young men and young women who are not afraid to stand up in the face of sentiment; that manhood implies," said Rev. Long. The speaker pleaded with the young men and young women since Christ's crucifixion has given to us the universality of the Gospel to conquer the world. God and hasten his kingdom in this world. SECOND CALVARY BAPSTIST Last Sunday was the beginning of our series of sermons for the month of March. A large number attended a little longer, the 6:30 prayer group gets a little stronger. Among the visitors present in the Sunday school were: Miss Upshur, of Cape Charles Va., and Mr. James Dillard, who is here on account of the illness of his wife, a most excellent sermon from the subject, "A Call to Service," Luke 7:14 text, And he said, "Young man I say unto the, arise." Immediately after this service the pastor preached the funeral of Sister Luzetta Willis-Harrington been ill for quite a while. At 3 p.m. Rev. Trueblood, pastor of the Burrus Memorial Baptist Church, Lamberts Point, gave us a beautiful message from Eph, subject, "The Church which is the Body." A number of his students, the B. Y. P. U. held their exercises. Mr. James Dillard led in the Bible study, which was very interesting. Mr. Jones, a member of the Excelsior Band was present and rendered a selection. Bro. Frank Burden, who is a member of the B. Y. P. U. held their exercises, led the prayer service at 7 p.m. At 7:30 the pastor preached a great sermon, which made our hearts rejoice as he talked with us out of God's word.

The program as arranged for these services is probably the most acted in local churches over such length of time. Twenty ministers, besides the pastor, of Norfolk and vicinity, with their choirs and congregations, are scheduled to hold services on different nights. Twenty lodges are scheduled to have a part in the program along with the congregations. Every night in the month the pulpit will be occupied by one of these ministers excluding Saturday nights. The object of the service is to bring closer together the churches and the fraternities in their work as related to the church, and also to raise funds to apply on the bonded indebtedness of Second Calvary.

H. LIGGINS In speaking on this subject, one of the frauds which men constantly practice upon each other that I shall give first mention is that in respect to borrowing the property of others. Frauds perpetrated under this classification not try to mention all the ways in which they are committed. They are so common that most persons practice them without even suspecting themselves to be criminals, yet, however they are crimes and admit of no guilt. Of this transgression persons are guilty whenever they suffer that which has been loaned to them to be injured through their own negligence. This evil is extremely common, and by a large part of mankind scarcely regard, unless the injury be considerable. Still it is a violation of confidence and a falsification of the expressed or implied terms of the loan. No man ever loaned anything of value with an agreement on his part that it might be injured uncessarily. No man ever received a loan with an agreement on his part, expressed or implied, that he expected to injure the thing ex- ent, at the First United Presbyterian Church under the auspices of the Men's Circle, Friday evening, March 2nd, from every angle considered was a splendid success.

Kee, pastor of Bethany Christian Church, Isle of Wight County, has accepted a call to the pastor's second church at Holland and will be installed on the fourth Sunday in March. cept in cases where the nature of the transaction obviously involved the injury and a consequent compensation. This it will be observed, is a case properly arranged under the head of bargains and not gratuitous loans. People are also guilty of fraud when they return for the article borrowed and lost or destroyed an article of inferior value. We often borrow this thing which perish in the proper use of it, this case many individuals satisfy their need returning the same thing in kind and quantity although plainly inferior in value. A scrupulous spirit of integrity would induce us rather to return somewhat more in value than we reason to make proper satisfaction for the object in the convenience it afforded us. Another fraud of the same nature is practice whenever we unreasonably retain in our possession whatever has been loaned to us. A great num of persons are in more or less degree guilty of this fault. A want of punctuality in the respect is a serious evil, extending久而久 and not infrequently intruding upon and comfort of good neighbors, let there are persons who go through it borrowing without thinking of return, and thus doubly the good nature of those around them. Such conduct is totally contrary to good faith and a plain injustice. Every borrower in his application for every loan is understood and knows that he is understood by the lender to be not only to return that which he borrowed, but to return it within a reasonable time. It is unjust and unkind to retain the property of the lender beyond his present, to use it beyond his permission to reward his kindness with injury. Of a similar fraud are we guilty when we employ that which is leased for purposes and in modes not contended by the lender. Mutilitudes of men in a guilty of this crime and in ways almost unremovable. All of our rights to the use, he can not only as to the possession, but the manner and to the degree are deferred from the consent of the owner except in monetary transactions. To that which is not given we have not and cannot, any right. We are bound, therefore, pursuously to use what we borrow with limits of his permission expressed and when we transgress these limits we violate the plain dictates of common law and are inexcusable. When a man begins to do wrong through negligence he will soon do it through indifference. Indifference to sin is the next step of love of it. The only safety in this case is the benefiting of a like nature is to resist the benefiting of evil. If our opposition to it is not be begun here, very likely it will be smaller transgression prepares the greater. Every gross villain has been such by small beginnings. "No man," the latin proverb, "becomes abandons." SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON Instructor of Theology and the English Bible, Virginia Beminary and College, Lynchburg, Va. SUNDAY MARCH 11TH JEBSU IN GETHSEMANE. LUKE 12 (Read Heb. 7: 1:10; Ps. 4: 6:10; 8:14; 12:4:10; Phil. 3: 7:12; 12:18) GOLDEN TEXT-Christ also offered us our sin once, the righteous for the unrighteous that he might bring us to God. 1 Ps. 3:18. 1 The Agony in the Garden.-V. 39.144. "Toward the garden called Gethsemane We turn our faces and our steps now And awaits in hated and piled up and piled up While Christ takes the world's sin on his heart. For this he came the Child of Babylon To this hour he trod strange to some roads. Misunderstood, despised, hated and fainted He takes at least the heaviest of all his sins And so redeem the world for God again Jesus, as his custom was, went to the Mount of Olives to pray. He prayed in the garden, followed him up to the garden. Not as I will, but Father, as time was Not my will but thine be done? "Blessed is he who, following Christ in Gethsemane, follows him our supreme purpose to his Father's door: the door of a priest which does not to change the diviner to the human, but the human to the divine." After the angel from heaven "he bled" of blood. "He being in an angely moved more earnestly; and his sweat died of blood of blood falling down upon the ground. Vs. 44 Note Mt. 28: 36-39; Mt. 14: 27 ```markdown ``` "What did his Father wish him to think?" A noted thinker believed he would be rewarded, should he be rewarded in Jerusalem? That would be to insure his arrest and probable his death. Could his mission survive the catastrophe? Could these timid, halfeducated fathers be saved from the tragedy of the morrow. Many are older in the late war his faced uneasured physical pain and one longer in mind. His was the greater dire of his life than stand his Father's will, or fall in comma to achieve that will. His prayer was in this tragedy he might escape. 2. Jesus "Unfailable Friends." Vs. 42 & 43. Jesus was the greatest friend and found his sleep. "St. Luke have abbreviated in fuller records given in Mt. 26 and Mt. 27 from which we find that Jesus three to his apostles, and three found them in the wilderness, and three found a fresh step in his victorious submission. This was the temptation of Jesus by element of anguish, as he had been seeped in the wilderness by every element of temptation. Rise and pray that he enter not into temptation. "The sweet temptation that even to man is not that which seizes his heart, and that which moves him to shirk his duty." Bath James Burrell, D. D. 3. The Betrayal and Arrest, V. 47. 34. While he yet spake, a multitude appeached upon Jesus to kiss him, Jesus, betrayed thou the Son of man with a kiss! exalted Jesus. He is a fullest knowledge of all the things which touch us closest which can come to us only with their actual touch. You friend is very sick. For days and days pro know that he must die before you, but how suddenly can even to all those who think they are expecting it most surely. This truth seems to me to throw light upon some things it is impossible to puzzle out. There is a kind of knowledge of Judas treason which not even Jesus can have till he feels the cold kiss of the truth in his heart. The scorn and carn of the Jew's hatwhe the divine heart cannot gather except out of the sneering lips and flashing eyes of his captors in the hour of their triumph. (Pillar of the Jew) There are many other hypocrites that have a fearful strong likeness to the kiss of the true Jesus, who often have to our besieged our besieged our indifference, our faithlessness, our selfishness, our passion, our worldliness, our hypocrisy, our covarriage, our covetousness, our unkindness, our Christ to his enmine-her, J. S. Harrell. BRIGGSOGRAM Jesus was pre-eminently a man of prayer He prayed before a great ordel. Prayer and watchfulness make the Christian immune from temptation. Great temptations come only to great seek only gold can stand the furnace test *Great souls and great characters are the great mountains they attract the storms.* *They remind us of tribal or He strength to the tribal.* Our Gethsemani prepares us to overcome them. Too many Christians asleep in our church—the sleep of lebarry, anathy, indolence ed at once." He begins to back slide without compunction will find his remaining course only downward; and it will descend to the bottom with continually increasing velocity. The audience under consideration presents us with very humiliating and painful specimen of human corruption. The duty of rendering justice to our neighbor is one of the plainest distinctions of the law written on the hearts of men; one of the first demands of men; one of the prime injunctions of God.

And Act! readily, universally or absolutely acknowledged or demanded by mankind. The bounds which separate justice from injustice are defined with mathematical exactness, and almost always clearly recognized and rarely capable of being mistaken. Yet in how many ways is this duty violated. How many individuals, of how many classes, who, however wise, honorable, or excellent revere, are at times victims of fraud and the dues of cunning. The known instances are innumerable while multitudine are probably the unknown transgressions of this nature. How great part of time and talents have been employed in perpetrating these seemingly insignificant frauds. Another species of fraud is practised in what is called trespass. Frauds of this kind are also numerous, and greatly diversified. Many persons without being sensible of doing an injustice walk through the Brownii BREE Conducted By M BROWNIE TALKS Brownies, the winter is over, Gone is the snow and the sleet, Soon we look for grass and clover, And bare little Brownie feet. But we must linger a-while 'till old March, Rushes on with her wind and her sun, For Brownies know they never can tell When this old Codger is done. For she kisses sweet April and bor- rows, Twelve of her beautiful days, And flings them back all horrid With cold and slanting rays. We Brownies are busy as usual, To do a good deed is fun, But we will keep our brown toes in leather And wait while brother March hums. PEEK-A-BOO. Dear Brownies: Dear Brownies, ever figured what a big loss it is when you fail to make your class in school? Get out your pencils. Four and one-half months, twenty days each, are ninety days total loss. Three meals each day make 270 meals and if they only cost ten cents each, the loss in food is $27.00. Shoes, stockings and clothes would at least be $10.00 more. How about herself doing this and that, wearing herself out is worth at least $7.00 thought and the carpet and the hall-and last the poor teacher. I know Peek-a-boo but what just the same even when we pass. Yes, Brownies, but you get out of school and to work sooner when you pass and that cuts off the expense and loss and makes you a producer. See that no Brownie fails this term. Yours for love, PEEK-A-BOO. Hannah's Millions A Brownie Story in Serial Form The early morning call sounded over the back fence and Hannah bounded out of bed. Soon two woolly heads were close together at the kitchen table. "Hannah, I know what Gatesville needs and must have that we can furnish. I found out last night, but was too late to come over." "Spill it quick, I am curious to know cause I can't think of a single thing." "Mail boxes girl, mail boxes! Uncle Sam says everybody must have one in thirty days. I looked up wholesale prices and we can get a good box for three dollars a dozen to retail for fifty cents each, then we can get a cheaper box to retail for twenty-five cents each. They will cost $1.50 a dozen." "Let's figure Henry, it looks good to me. We double our money in each case, and if we are quick we will sell boxes." "Time's up children." Hannah and Henry lost no time and before night had many orders for boxes. Both the white and colored people seemed anxious to help the two busy little Brownies and orders came thick and fast. Others tried to sell mail boxes but the whole town was bent encouraging the youngsters and the caam of the business was given to them. Early and late their busy feet ran up and down the streets of Gatesville and their cheery smiles and hearty thank you womany a kind look from the passers-by. They could not deliver all orders in thirty days but they did their best and womany spoils were counted. they had cleared enough to bring up the capital to $250 but the Bryant could not sleep they were so nervous. "The first thing to do is to offer up a prayer of thanksgiving all alone, Henry, 'cause we aint nothin' and the Lord helped us to make this money and Henry, we must take some of our personal part and go and see all the poor folk in Gatesville. Prayer is a big thing and we need their prayers if we make our million." "Oh, Hannah, shut up, we'll give and we'll make our million too, let's rejoice now. T'aint no time for sermons. My feet are plumb worn out running after orders. What does Gatesville need that we can supply? Get your thinkers on, let's get to work. I am all puffed up fit to bust." enclosure of others and tread down their grass, grain or other valuable productions of their labor. Others open the enclosures and cause growing plants to become injured by the depradations of animals. Still others will plunder gardens, orchards of such fruits as are particularly delicious and others will plunder the forests of another for wood both for their own consumption and for the market, all of which is likely called trespass when in reality it is theft. No actions of man are more obviously theft and accordingly should be defined in the common sense way, "stealing." If we love justice as we ought to, we will take all measures necessary to deal justly with everyone. He who is resolved to do to others what He would that others should do unto him will never suffer it to remain undone for want of exertions which demands so little self denial.

The New Education A great educational experiment is beginning at Cambridge, Massachusetts. The Harvard School of Education is about to select a number of children who are now six years old and observe them for twelve years, during which frequent mental and physical tests will be given. The school authorities of Cambridge and Boston will co-operate. The object is to ascertain just how a boy or a girl develops mentally and physically and thus to contribute greatly to the science of education. This is one of the most useful researches ever undertaken. Education has developed apace in the last twenty years and a new science, educational psychology, has evolved. Things have been proved which were not even imagined twenty years ago. The subjects of spelling and grammar for instance, were considered as indispensable. In these subjects the educational psychologists made an experiment. Two elementary schools in Philadelphia were ordered to omit spelling and grammar for two years. They complied, and at the end of the two years their pupils were given the regular examinations in spelling and grammar. The result was startling; they did very nearly if not quite as well as the pupils of the other schools who had continued the study of spelling and grammar without interruption. That is just one instance of what educational psychology is doing—finding out just which studies are not essential and thus saving much valuable time. It is possible, even probable, that twenty years hence school children will be learning in five or six years what they now learn in eight years. Even more important is the new vocational psychology. Most of the world's social misery is caused by misfits and the misfitting starts, or at least could be prevented, in school. The colleges are full of boys who ought to be somewhere else, and "somewhere else" is full of boys who ought to be in college; hundreds of natural artists are running the trolley cars or elevators, and vice versa. It is all very well to say that a genius will find his way against all obstacles, but the schools are not and cannot be run for the sake of the occasional genius. They must deal with the great majority, the common run, and that is where one finds the great misery of men who have missed their calling. The new vocational psychology aims by ceaseless experimenting to discover the child's natural bent. This, if successful, will be a wonderful service, for generally the child does not know his natural bent, and often we find grown men who, with the best intentions and efforts, do not discover their natural bent until they are thirty years old, and sometimes older, at which time, with their accumulated responsibilities, is is usually too late to begin anew. Thus the new educational eperi- AFRICANS LOOK TO AMERICA FOR HELP C. Kamba Simango and His Wife Both Well-Educated Africans, Speak at Hampton Institute. (By WM. ANTHONY AERY) Hampton, Va.-C. Kamba Simango, a native of Portuguese East Africa, and a graduate of Hampton Institute, class of 1919, who has just completed a special course at Teachers College, Columbia University, spoke recently in Ogden Hall, Hampton Institute, on African forms of government, police systems, education and physical training. "Africans," he said, "in spite of the lack of highly organized police systems, succeed in apprehending wrongdoers. They follow the customs and laws which are useful to their tribes, but they do not carry their rules beyond their tribes to so-called 'aliens.'" THE LOT OF AFRICAN WOMEN His wife, who is a native of Free-town, Sierra Leone, and who is a graduate of the Royal College of Arts at South Kensington, England, described the affection of African mothers for their children, especially for those children that offered in human sacrifice for the sake of bringing peace to whole tribes, and likened this affection to that expressed by other mothers who send their sons to fight in modern warfare. She referred to AFRICANS JUDGE PERSONS "The Africans need help in order to develop themselves, but they also have important contributions which they can make to the rest of the world, especially in the fields of art and music. "We find that the African is also striving and reaching out to get those things which will develop his happiness and welfare," said Kamba Simango. That Hampton Institute stands for in the United States we mean to make Mt. Silinda School stand for in Africa." T B Death Rate IS Decreasing Richmond, Va.—The 19th Annual Meeting of the National Tuberculosis Association will be held this year in Santa Barbara, California, from June 20th to the 23rd inclusive. When it is realized that the death rate from tuberculosis in the registration area was over 200 per 100,000 population in 1904 when the first organized fight against tuberculosis started and these conventions came into being, and then we note a death rate of 99.4 per 100,000 population for 1921, tuberculosis workers need to take renewed vigor and feel that their efforts have not been in vain. ments may save several years of a man's life and double the sum of human happiness by placing people where they belong. Endowment Funds Nets $101,000 Washington, D. C.—The Howard University Endowment Fund Campaign launched in this city last week is meeting with encouraging success. Last week it was announced that 13 contributors had pledged $1000 each. This week nine additional contributors have made the same pledge and paid in at least one-fourth of the amount pledged. To date $36,750 have been subscribed by all classes of colored people of Washington in an intensive campaign. A considerable portion of this amount has been paid in cash which brings the grand total up to approximately $100,000. The campaign is being conducted to meet the conditional gift of $250,000 of the General Education Board of New York city. The nine additional contributors are: Doctors J. Hayden Johnson, Thomas Martin, M. L. T. Grant, Peter Price, Robert Tyrler, F. L. Whitby, Charles H. Marshall, John W. Mitchell and the Medico-Chirurgical Society all of Washington and the District of Columbia. Boy's Day Observed At Tuskegee Inst. Tuskegee Institute Alabama, Feb. More than 750 boys, representing the 52-rural schools of Macon county, assembled at the Tuskegee Institute Thursday, February 22nd, to attend the Fourth Annual Observance of Boys' Day, at which W. B. Riley, county superintendent of Education and Dr. J. W. Whittaker, chaplain of the Tuskegee Institute, were the principal speakers. The program included from George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Brooker Washington, discussions of phase of pig raising and corn growing, and the singing of Negro Spirituals. Boys' Day was established as one of the activities of the Institute Extension Department, under C. J. Calloway, who presided over the meeting Thursday, to stimulate an interest in education, in pig raising and corn growing clubs. The movement has grown steadily in influence as is indicated by the increasing attendance. The discussion was indicative of an increasing interest in pig raising and corn growing. Pork Exports Decrease In 1922 Pork Exports Decrease in 1922 Exports of pork and pork products from the United States were less in 1922 than in 1921, according to reports of the United States Department of Agriculture.

Lard exports amounted to 353,475 tons, compared with 434,447 tons.

Ransom of New York. How Many Dust Particles In The Air We Breathe? In connection with the solar radiation work of the Weather Bureau United States Department of Agriculture, a daily count is now being made of the number of dust particles in the atmosphere at Washington. To make the count, the air pressure within the dust counter is suddenly decreased, causing a line of dust to be precipitated on glass, where the particles are counted with a microscope having a magnification of 1,000 diameters. On quiet mornings as many as 3,000 dust particles per cubic centimeter have been counted, but on clear mornings following precipitation the number drops to 150. Most of the particles appear as organic matter from the earth's surface, although some unconsumed carbon from smoke, grypsum, and calcite from building operations, and diatomaceous material have been observed. Undoubtedly there are many particles which, while large enough to act as nucleus for condensation, are too small to be seen through a microscope with a magnifying power of 1,000 diameters. Southern States Consider Federal Forestry Bills That President Harding's recent stand for a Federal forestry bill indicates the trend of thought in various States is shown by the introduction of bills in the legislatures of Oklahoma, Arkansas, and South Carolina providing for the creation of State boards of forestry, says the Forest Service, United States Department of Agriculture. The bills provide for boards whose membership shall be nonpartisan and representative of interests concerned with forestry. Co-operation with farmers and private timber owners, a fire protective organization, and educational publicity work furthering forestry are the specific objectives. Plans for introducing fur-bearing and game animals on islands in southeastern Alaska, where they have either never occurred or have been exterminated, are being worked out by the Biological Survey, United States Department of Agriculture. It is proposed to stock certain islands with fur-bearing bears and man; to stock other islands with tern, mink and beaver. The introduction of elk on certain islands is also being considered. "GET SOMEBODY ELSE" The Lord had a job for me, But I had so much to do I said, "You get somebody else, Or wait till I get through." I don't know how the Lord came out But He seemed to get along; But I felt a kind o' sneaking--like I Knewed I'd done God wrong. But He never answered me at all, And I could hear Him say, Down in my accusing heart "Nigger, It's got too much to do You get somebody else, Or wait till I get through. Now, When the Lord, He have a job for me, I never tries to shirk; I drop what I have on hand, And does the good Lord's work. And my affairs can run along, Or wait till I get through; Nobody else can do the work That God marked out for you. Paul Laugher Travelers Aid Report Continuous Report, of, the Travellers, Aid Drive.

Kit (4'1") M San-Y-Kit Dep. A. 92 New York W-Kit for Circular Extension Service Program Made for 30,000 Negro Farming Families in 31 Virginia Counties. Hampton, Va.,—Plans for increasing the effectiveness of the 1923 extension-service work of all the colored farm and home-demonstration agents of Virginia were made at the recent annual four-day meeting, which was held at Hampton Institute, under the auspices of the Virginia Agricultural College and Polytechnic Institute at Blacksburg and in co-operation with the States Relations Service of the Department of Agriculture. U. S. Debtors John B. Pierce of Hampton Institute, who is the field agent of the Negro farm-demonstration work in Southern States, including Virginia, in opening the annual meeting, said. "There are thirty-one colored agents (seven home and twenty-four farm demonstration agents), together with three supervising agents, are working in thirty-one Virginia counties, in which there are between 29,000 and 30,000 Negro farming agents. The demonstration agents must develop local leaders to carry out the extension-service pro Farmers Mako Sacrifice The Federal Farm Loan Act makes it possible for thirty farmers to secure long-time credits at 5% per cent interest and to free themselves from the nightmare of recurring renewal of farm mortgages held by individuals, Said C. R. Titlow, Secretary of the Federal Farm Loan Bank of Baltimore. "We are loaned a vast amount of money to Negro farmers in Virginia," said Secretary Titlow, "and there has not been a single default in payment from Negro farmers in the Baltimore district. Very few farmers, in fact, can be prodded for payments. The farmer can always be trusted, to his utmost ability, to pay. He will sacrifice everything to pay his interest charges." Analyze: then Co-operate That the county agents need (1) to study carefully all the statistics of the vital things which relate to their communities (2) to apply their power of observation to community to community needs (3) to plan their work with reference to State programs and (4) to co-operate with other community workers, were spain which were expressed by I. L. Hobson, Washington, D. C., field agent for the States Relations Service, in his address on "Analyzing County Extension Work." Making Better Citizens C. A. Montgomery, Blacksburg, Va., assistant State boys' club agent, dedicated the object of all club work is to raise better boys and girls, who in turn, will become better teachers and inward for rural life. J. L. Charity of Richmond, a Virgin colored district agent, announced the following 1923 program of club work among Negro boys: (1) the organization of local clubs with local leaders; (2) the introduction of more pure-bred stocks; (3) the promotion of rally days; (4) the holding of a State-wide meeting of club boys; and (5) the awarding of a loving-cup to the best boys' judging team by the farm demonstration agents. Women Build Programs The home-demonstration agents, under the leadership of District Agent Lizzie A. Jenkins, stressed a program of work for 1923, which included four-year courses in canning, cooking, clothing, and poultry management, and the needs of the people who are to be helped through State and Federal aid. Hampton Institute Co-operates Hampton Institute Co-operates Addresses and demonstrations were given members of the Hampton In- stitute staff, including F. S. Gannack, "Culling the Flock" and "Selecting Eggs for Market and Hatching"; Gidon E. Smith, "Games for Rural Groups"; George C. Faville, "Hog and Pig Judging"; Carrie Alberta Lyford, "Exhibits"; J. L. Blair Buck, "Hampton's Extension Service"; J. A. Vairinger, "Sanitary Hog pens and houses"; A. B. Doggett, "Corn Judging"; and E. S. Moberg, "The family Cow." The entire Hampton Institute plant was put at the service of the visiting agents, who inspected of its departments. H. Whittimore Brown, who is in charge of Hampton's recently organized department of building construction, gave a demonstration of costing machines. The Virginia Program Lorenzo C. Whito, of Richmond, field secretary of the Negro Organization Society, outlined Dr. Hollis B. Prissell's plan of getting Negroes to work, under their own leaders, to improve their health, their schools, their farms and their homes. William D. Gresham of Richmond, supervisor of colored schools, described that more attention should be given to the problem of keeping colored boys in school after they reach the fourth grade, which is for many colored boys a "dead-line in education." He referred to the work which is being done in Virginia's twenty-three county training schools.

Gregg, principal of Hampton Institute, paid a tribute to the demonstration agents, who have enriched and enlarged human life among farming people. "The whole object of farm extension work," he said, "is to make life richer, freeer, wider, happier on the farms. When we attain that object we are not going to see this drift from the farm into the city. People we glad to get back on the farm, when the farm can give them the opportunities for the fuller life which is their rightful heritage."

A SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON COMMENTARY Full of thought, instruction and Biblical information to the Sunday school worker, comes the National Baptist Sunday School Lesson Commentary for the year, 1923. This book is the last editorial work of the late Dr. R. H. Boyd, who was editor-in-chief, and who was the founder of the National Baptist Publishing Board's Plant, the publishers of the National Baptist Sunday School Lesson Commentary. For more than twenty years this book has held the distinction of being the only Baptist Sunday School Lesson Commentary published in the United States by any of the four or five Baptist families. The present editorial secretary is Rev. D. J. Hull B., S. T. B., D. D., a product of Lincoln University, one of the ripest schools in the race and a member of the International Sunday School Council Lesson Committee. One of the attractive features of the Commentary is its liberal and yet simple explanation of each Sunday school lesson for 1923; its several illustrations on each quarter's lesson or blackboard features; the excellent chapter in the front of the book on Modern Sunday School Methods; the dictionary for each quarter and the Lesson and Motto Text for 1924. COMMERCIAL THRIFT CLUE Mr. Louis Portlock led the discussion of the city charter before the Commercial Thrift Club, Thursday evening, February 22.

Spratley, who attended the meeting of the city council, Tuesday, February 20, when the question of providing the $25,200 princess Anne avenue colored school was discussed, gave a glowing account of the session. Mr. Ferdinand D. Evans, third vicepresident, presided during the meeting. Mr. P. B. Young, editor of the Norfolk Journal and Guide, manifested his interest in the club by registered on Thursday evening, February 15, Messrs. C. J. Booth, Jr., and Wm. B. Parks, became members. The officers and members are elated over the progress made by the club, numerically, financially and otherwise, as it is about to close its first year's work. Methodist Missionaries Refute Idea That Natives Are Incapable of Higher Civilization. New York, N. Y. The learning capacity of Negroes native to Central Africa is on a level with the average to be found among any other race including white, under the same conditions. In fact, if there is any difference, it is in favor of the Central African folk, who, in many instances equal American Negroes in natural capacity in spite of the woeful lack of background. These are the conclusions of the Reverend Coleman C. Missionaries of the W. A. Mullin missionaries under the Board of Foreign Missions of the Methodist Episcopal Church to the Congo Beige, and colleagues at the mission station at Kabongo in the heart of the Luba cannibal country. "It is a mistaken idea to think that these people lack the capacity of learning, or are inferior in this respect," said Mr. Hartzler, who sailed for Capetown for another five years service as missionary. "Considering the lack of back-ground, the almost blank environment of the black children in our schools, they are surprisingly apt. It must be remembrance of this title, boys and girls have had absolutely no training, even of the crudest kind, to train their minds or control their attention. No home training, no example of their elders worth imitating in any intellectual way. "If any other race of people were placed in this same position for the same length of time it is very doubtful if their children would be any brighter than the pupils in our mission school in the heart of Darkest Africa. Our task with them is to begin at the very bottom and build up all the fundamentals of civilization in their minds, which children in America get at home and from merely living in the community. The idea of exactness in construction has never appeared necessary in their living. Without some of the sophistication that is the heritage of civilized folk everywhere, these people lack comprehension of values which are commonly accepted by us because the experience of reading, observation and community practice. Our hardest task is building these foundations of knowledge. After that we will match them with pupils anywhere." "We are teaching them practical things as well as the elements of education," continued Mr. Hartzler. "The ivory carvers do work any American school-boy could well be proud of. Mut-making, basket-weaving, pottery and scientific gardening are taught so that the young men and women will be able to produce something of value and earn a better living than has been the lot of their people for generations. Natives have been developed to teach classes in these subjects, save the gardening which Mr. Hartzler personally handles. Carpentry and other forms of manual training as classified in this country are taught by Mr. Miller."

The Madam C.J.Walker Mfg. Co.,Inc. 640 N.West St., Indianapolis, Ind. Many owners have delayed needed repairs on their machines for the pleasure driving season. Owners who are thinking of retiring their machines at the present time might do well to look up the Federal Tire and Service Company, 747 Granby street, if it is economy in tire service that interests the motorists. This company holds the authorized sales agency for the Federal Extra Service Tires, blue pennant cord fabric, and rugged extra ply fabric. Federal tires need no introduction to the motoring public. The stability and wearing qualities of these tires are known to owners of all machines, whether trucks, pleasure cars, or just automobiles. But the service that is being added at this shop on Granby street surpasses "just selling tires." The customer is sold once for all time as the manager makes it a point to see that motor satisfaction is obtained by each customer. For tires of the known quality of Federal, the prices at which the Granby street store offer them to the public will most likely interest the man who is seeking economy in getting his car in shape for the summer. Good Season To Get Good Used Cars People who have the means and can afford to buy new cars yearly, are now trading in their last year's models and bringing out the newest makes. And that fact is the good fortune, very often, of the man unable to buy, or does not buy. At reliable dealers very good traded-in cars can be had at prices that bespeak the best economy. Mr. Miano, who handles several makes of second hand cars for Arthur W. Dupue, 700-702 West 21st street, in speaking to a representative of this paper a few days ago about used cars, stated that it is not an uncommon thing for them to have used cars driven only a few thousand miles to offer at half the price of new machines of the same or even inferior make. He also stated that now is the time to secure bargain prices used cars between six and ninety percent higher in the mid-summer, the pleasure driving season. He pointed out some makes such as Marion-Handley, Willys-Overland, Studebaker, Willys-Knight, and several other high class cars with prices marked down to astoundingly low figures.

West St., SATS CHURCHES CAN HELP RACE RELATIONS There Are in This Country 35,000 Colored Ministers and 40,000 Churches. Dr. George E. Haynes, Secretary, Commission on the Church and Race Relations, Federal Council of Churches, in outlining the great possibilities of the Christian Church for developing and fostering racial good stated the following pertinent racts: "Race problems are religious problems and require the application of Christian ideals. The relations of the white and Negro people of America bring concrete to the world today the problems of applying brotherly good will, understanding and Christian cooperation in race relations and abolishing the evils growing out of violence and exploitation. "The Christian Gurcines of America are the organized channels through which the greatest expression of the ideals of such inter-racial good will can find practical application in the community life of the two races. "The churches have great organized resources at their command for this service. The Negro churches are by far the greatest agency we have in America for influencing the life of the Negro church. They have about 40,000 Negro churches with nearly 5,000,000 members; they own property valued at $80,000,000. In 1913 there were over 35,000 Negro ministers. A striking fact about the Negro church organization is that about more than eight tenths of the Negro church members are enrolled in distinctly Negro denominations. Two of these denominations are more than a hundred years old and two of them are about fifty years old. All of them are managed, supported and controlled by 6,000 Negro churches with over half a million members in denominations of white and colored constituents. "What are some of the things before the churches in this situation? Among others, three tasks stand out: First, the churches should by all the means at their command hold up the Christian ideal of relations between the races. By precept and example the members of the church should be members to believe the mutual respect friendly cooperation, and positive good will - the Christian way - really enable FOLK VING CO.

WHERE—Write for Particulars REGINALL COCOA BALM America's Greatest Hair Grower THE INTER-RACIAL MOVEMENT IN THE SOUTHERN STATES By DR. JAMES BOYD Kentucky Inter-Racial Committee Like most movements of its kind, the Inter-racial Movement had its birth in a great crisis. During the war the white and colored people of the South had, in a very remarkable way, forgotten their differences and united in a supreme effort to win the war. Promises of better things were made to all of our boys, black and white. The Negro soldier accepted these promises at face value. He played well his part in the war. When upon his return to his home-land these promises were not realized, his heart was filled with bitterness. The lines were more tightly drawn and barriers to his progress seemed more stubborn and relentless than ever. As race riots broke out and tear of a general race conflict gripped the country, a group of white men, confident that the good will and co-operation secured between the races during the war could be perpetuated, called into conference a number of representative colored men in the spirit of prayer and supplication, and adopted a platform upon which all could stand. The planks of this platform included justice before the law, the prevention of lynching, and the correction of other injustices to the Negro. Some of the most widely-known people of the South accepted places on the Commission, among whom were ministers, college presidents, bishops and capitalists. As a later development, many of the South's leading women have become associated with the movement. The Commission does not pretend to have discovered a short cut to the millennium or to have brought into existence a perfect organization, nor does it believe that it has found a solution to the issue, that can be worked out in a day. It recognizes, in the language of George Madden Martin, that prejudices are stubborn, and that to over- A NATION-WIDE RACE CONFERENCE CALLED April 16-20, Date Set for Great Conference at Washington, D. C. Washington, D. C.—Following the much heralded announcement of Professor Kelley Miller that the time is opportune for the calling of a national conference of all race leaders in this country, the National Ministers Evangelistical Alliance of America, the National Henderson Civil Rights League, The White Cross Free Labor Bureau of America and the Ministers' and Deacons Union have taken the initiative and called a conference to convene in Washington at the Cosmopolitan Institutional Church April 16 to 29 inclusive. The object of the conference as announced is to devise ways and means of aiding the Negro peoples all over the world. An unrest among the darker peoples of the earth is seen and the only relief foreseen is the coming together in conference of leading colord people and organizations. The invitation to meet in this conference is extended to churches, church auxillaries, fraternal organizations and every society, league association now doing uplift work among Negroes in America.

On the shelves of the establishment may be seen an array of good second hand and new tires offered at prices which enable any motorist to eliminate tire troubles. Munson Rubber Company also holds the agency for Sebring Tires for Norfolk and Portsmouth. This is a tire of merit, according to recent users, and has given entire satisfaction in every instance. Elsewhere in this paper is printed the advertisement including a price list of these tires in a list, and visit to their offices will in all likelihood result in saving of good money to tire purchasers. At any rate, the Munson Rubber Company states that they are willing to allow the customer to test all that is claimed for their tires, new or second hand. Hampton Students In Classic Concert R.

Negro conductor, recently gave a concert of religious classics, American Negro folk songs and their derivatives, and modern compositions, including the work of such Negro composers as Coleridge-Taylor, Work, and Johnson, in the Richmond City Auditorium under the auspices of the Delvers and Big Fifty Clubs of Richmond. The Hampton musicians and singers were given a hearty reception by a large and representative audience. The Primary Departments of the Norfolk School System were well represented on last Thursday, February 22, 1923, at the Tidewater Teachers' Association, which convened in Portsmouth, Va. Miss Julia C. Dodson, of the Lott Carey school, was chosen to represent this department. She gave a very practical demonstration for teaching Home Geography in the second and third grades. Miss Dodson is indeed, an able, wide awake and cheerful teacher. come them is not a task for limited sympathies and petty natures; that it is not a task that can be done by machinery or mere organization; that it is a spiritual task, a task to be carried out in the spirit and according to the ethics of the Man of Galilee. These principles emphasize first, the truth that contact is necessary in the solution of any human problem. Differences are at first minimized, then they disappear. In order that the Movement should be motivated by Christian principles, the leaders perfected a duly organized Commission with membership representing thirteen states and headquarters in Atlanta. In addition to this Commission, each of the thirteen Commission directives the work in that state. Some eight hundred of the twelve hundred counties in the Southern States have organized local committees of representative white and colored people. In thirty-seven years, from 1858 to 1921, there were 437 lynchings in Georgia and only one indictment. In 1922 alone, with eight lynchings, twenty-two persons were indicted, of whom four have been convicted and sent to the penitentiary and fifteen are still to be tried. The evidence in these cases was collected largely by the Inter-racial secretary and committees in Georgia. This is one illustration among many of the effectiveness of the movement. What the Commission needs more than anything else is the confidence of the white men. It seeks the sympathy and co-operation of the members of the churches and social organizations, to the end that this greatest problem confronting the American people today may be settled by the principles of justice and fair play, and according to the teachings of Jesus. SPORTS The Causes of Failure of Local Independent Football Clubs (By. Willey A. Johnson, Jr.) (Shaw '24) (Continued from Last Week) It is obvious that teams cannot be made of stars. Ask any coach and he will tell you that he would rather take a bunch of men who had never seen a football, yet eager to listen and learn, than to have a bunch of pseudo stars. It is not necessarily true that all stars are of no avail. There is a vast difference between a college star and an independent team star. The college player reaches stardom through team work, sacrifice, love of his school and ability. First place, the least notice of him deviating from team work to individual starring, he has a coach to yank him out of the game with the understanding that such does not go on in his team. Team work or nothing. Take one of Norfolk's football stars out of a game and tell him he is playing wrong—Oh Man! That recalls another incident when on the field of practice the captain of the _____ was instructing his star end how to receive a pass. The player having been accustomed to his way of catching passes made it difficult for him to change. His way was wrong indeed, but to knock it into his "dome" was impossible. It may be true that you cannot get an independent team trained as a college team is trained, but you have to consider the contrasting spirits under which each plays. I have observed that Norfolk teams possess material that looks promising, but they do not get a ghost of a chance to show their wares. Maybe its for the best. They would probably be affected by the same malady. If the bringing of college teams to Norfolk in the future proves to be as successful as the past season, local teams will have to take a back seat unless they can produce the goods. Last season was one of the most unyielding years financially, that is for local clubs. Fans will not pay to see rotten games and unless local grid teams can up they will find themselves wanting. EACH TEAM HAS ITS TROUBLES Each of the three local teams had practically the same difficulties last season. The Columbia Athletic Club was not heard of after the first two games. They made a bad start and gave it up as a bad job. As for the Norfolk Athletic Club, it was wonder- THE WORLD'S FINEST HAIR ful how they remained together as long as they did. Finally they split like two political factions and each separate party began to spread their seed of contention and impediments that obstruct any team's progress. The N. A. C. showed their bad business methods when they sent a representative to Richmond to undermine another team of a game, but a sarcastic reply was all they received. The Aeolian A. C. meant well but the same malady overtook them. Nevertheless they stuck to it until the last. The club deserves something for that. Norfolk's independent clubs should be under some organization. This is the only means by which results can be assured. Those who have had experience as officials or coaches are well acquainted with the problems that confront them. Although Lincoln did not play the game she did when she defeated Hampton at Philadelphia in January, she put up a desperate and sterling fight. Captain Tompkins tried hard to get his boys together. Wood and Pollitt did the shooting for Lincoln, while Tompkins and McLean played a great game at guard. Hamer was in the thick of the game, although he could not find that mysterious black ring. Wood had five field goals and one foul to his credit, while Pollitt had four field goals and one foul. Chet Jones stared at the showers in the first minute of play. He soon followed this with another that set the vast crowd cheering. Captain Gunn played in "pee-dee-tyme" form. The way he handled the "old pill," his dribbling, passing, shooting, and playing in general kept the audience on edge. Burrell also played a great game at forward. He gathered three field goals. Jones gathered six goals and Gunn three goals and two fouls. Substitutes: Hampton—Frazier for Langton, Cardozo for Frazier; Lincoln: Trigg for McLean.

Richmond, Va.-The "Panthers" of Virginia, Union University, have taken the pioneer step in organizing a "Varsity Club" at the school. The club is composed of only those men who have been duly awarded the coveted "U" in some branch of major sport recognized among varsity men of the University and in accordance with the constitution of the C. I. A. A.

Time may heal an aching heart. Time may make the mind less sore. But time will never stop the longing. For my daughter who has gone before. Surrounded by friends, I'm lonely. In the midst of pleasure I'm blue. A smile on my face and a heartache. I'm always thinking of you. No one knows the silent heart ache. Only those who have lost can tell. Of the grief that is borne in silence. Of the one we loved so well. We mourn for you in silence. But not with outward show. We mourn that mourn silently. We mourn silent and low. We mourn their loss. Mary, Mary W. Hookins and family. IN MEMORIAM In loving remembrance of our dear daughter, Mary E. Dinkins, who passed away March 7th, 1917. The month of March is here, We on the saddest of the year, We six years ago today, Our Mary passed away. Often, so often, we wander, We a grave so far away, Where we laid our dear Mary, Six years ago today. Sleep on dear Mary, your labors are over. Your willing hands shall toil no more. A faithful daughter, both loving and kind. And a better daughter no one could find. She years today, she left us. We will see her face no more. Until she is a pity. Where parting days are over.

Unpublished History of Football and Baseball :: IN THE THEATRES SUBURBAN NORFOLK (By J. M. HARRISON) The Spring foll season with the Shelburne was not only bad for the hotels, but worse for the players who worked at them. It rained in torrents, and of course, most of the hotels were empty, as there is no drearier place than the seashore during bad weather. "Ham" Williams was in good as I said before with Mr. Mather, but a majority season with the Shelburne was not only hot for the players, but worse for the players who worked at them. It rained in torrents, and of course, most of the hotels were empty, as there is no drearier place than the seashore during bad weather. "Ham" Williams was in good as I said before with Mr. Mather, but a majority of players left Atlantic City, and I joined Jim Good's team in Philadelphia. It was in July that we went to Atlantic City to play Shelburne. "HAM" MAKES ME DO THE "CASEY" ACT With three men on bases and any kind of hit to win the game, I faced "Ham" with a determination to win it, but never in my whole athletic life did I feel more chagrined than when I made a vicious swing at the third strike, missing it a foot. Like a death sentence, I still hear the hollow voice of "Bob" Fitzgerald, "You are out!" "Ham" was beside himself with joy and kidded me unmercifully. He had a right, I had executed a complete "Casey." BIG SMITH HITS IN THE OCEAN It was after I had returned to Shelorne at Atlantic City, that we met the famous Cuban X Giants, with Clarence Williams, Rube Foster, Buckner, Pete and John Hill, "Indian" Charlie Grant, "Kid" Carter, (who struck out "Buck" Freeman five "Gipsy Rover" Scores A Decided Hit Before two large and appreciative audiences, a dramatic club composed of students of the Booker T. Washington High School, presented the "Gypsy Rover," a musical comedy in three acts, at the Attucks Theatre. The play was well chosen and one of the old school comedies, clean cut, consisting of tuneful melodies and amusing situations. The cast represented the pick of the school's dramatic talent, and did itself proud in the portrayal of the different roles assigned to the various individuals. In the speaking parts an of the principals acquitted themselves in a masterly manner, but the singing numbers were not so good, with exception of Miss Amelia Haris, as well as the Gypsy mother, whose rendering of her selections was especially good. But the main spring of the attraction was Mr. Sterling Coston, as the "Rover." He has an exceptionally good voice and his interpretation of the leading part was a real treat. In the ensemble scenes the singing of the chorus was way above the average of the traveling companies that have appeared at this house. It showed that the time and labor expended by Miss Daisy Sykes, ably assisted by Mr. Patterson and Mr. Webb, had not gone for naught, but had produced most pleasing and gratifying results to all the parties concerned. "The Gypsy Blues," a feature number by Miss Sallie Gatling, was well received, and the young lady had to respond to several encores. The closing number, "He Loves It," by Miss Gladys Shadrack, and the entire company was a knock-out. The young people who took part in the presentation of the "Gypsy Rovow" deserved the highest amount of praise and encouragement for such splendid effort in the field of dramatic art. It is that spirit of striving and seeking for something higher and better that produces results. GREAT HISTORICAL PICTURE AT STAR "Cardigan" the Robert W. Chambers motion picture which depicts the early part of the American Revolution with faithful historical accuracy, and which has been endorsed by the National Committee on Better Films, thousands of educators, priests, public officials, statesmen, citizens and others, will be shown next week at the Star.

The next stables on the ground cross the stables on the ground and the ball fell into the Atlantic Ocean. MEAT BATTERY ON THE HOG Little interest was manifested in the hotel league race on account of the superiority of the Shelburne team, and as a result, things became critically. "shaky," I became secretary for Roland Wiltshire, the Grand Atlantic, and of course, "Ham" had a job also. We slept together, and "Ham" had a suit of underwear that, would have given Job's coat card and spades. We were lying down reading when a rag dealer passed the house, yelling, "Old rags, bones, bottles!" Ham was nearly anaconda and I tried. "The rag man." To show how witty he was he jumped off the bed and ran under it, sticking his head from under it, he asked, "Piggy, has he gone?" STEVE JACKSON'S METHODS Steve Jackson, one of the old Columbians was in town last week. He is one of the few colored bridge tenders for the Long Island Railroad. No matter when we played, Steve, who used to pride himself on his pugilistic ability, would always have an opponent of it... explaining now good a man he was, and he could take possession. "I'm the wood in the stomach, anywhere," he would say. While talking to me of the old days, his eyes flashed as he said, "I believe I could play another game." We all share that belief, but I am afraid it is more mental than physical. Colonial Theatre the first half of this week. Look for the best at the Colonial.
