COLORED SALVATION ARMY TO QUIT HERE COLORED SALVATION ARMY TO QUIT HERE Non-support and Lack of Encouragement by Norfolk's Colored Cited Cause the Cause. The colored branch of the Salvation Army will go out of operation in this city in the near future.

Another Sugar Raid on, Leader of Senate Farm Bloc Declares, With Consumer Footing Bill, Raw Product Up To 9 Cents. Washington,—"Soaring Prices and the Goose" is the pointed caption utilized by Senator Capper, Republican, of Kansas, in adding to the embarrassment of President Hardy by enumerating public woes. In writing for his own paper, Capper declares: "Another 25 per cent ed to the cost," he said during 1923. This the same cost to which prices are added. So reports the economist, Fisher. It is disturbing news. If this comes to pass it means the com- sumer will have to pay the 75 per cent higher cost to him than the necessities cost him in 1914, first year of the war. the oil, sugar, woolens, cotton goods, leather, shoes, building materials, rubber, steel, copper, lead, zinc, many other manufactured products are steadily advancing price.

CITIZENS RENDER VALUABLE AID IN RESTORATION JOB Tent Colony Yet Has a Population of 600 Colored People; Many Will Have to Remain There Indefinitely. HEALTH AND SANITATION VERY GOOD IN TENT CITY By C. L. WILLIAMS Staff Correspondent The above picture of Tent City, New Bern, N. C., will convey but a faint idea of the vast destruction which the disastrous loss left in its wake. It will also, at best, convey only a meagre impression of the magnanimity of the relief work done and still by the American Red Cross; augmented by "citizens' committees." No picture can tell the real story. The imagination falters to comprehend it even when one is so overwhelmed by the eyes and the vision encounters an era of a hundred acres dotted with heaps of burned brick and masonry, gaint chimneys and barren shrubs from among which now arise thousands of homes to take the places of those destroyed. And to view the three hundred tents stretched over nearly seventy acres elicits admiration, but work done there, but to fully appreciate how kind man has been to man amidst these awful circumstances one must hear of the goodness from the lips of those beneficiaries of it. Suffering Slight The work done by this committee has since received the highest praise from the Red Cross officials who frankly state that it has been one of the valuable assets on the New Bern field. On the walls of Red Cross headquarters on Middle street in the Chamber of Commerce building is a picture, which shows strikingly, the touch of nature makes the whole world kin," which might be paraphrased "a little calamity makes the whole world kin. This picture shows a horde of half clothes colored, a little skin, a little touch enjoying their breakfast while white women who appear show every mark of refinement and prominence prepare and serve the meals.

LOW WAGES MEAN HIGH DEATH RATE, SAYS U.S. REPORT Mortality Twice as Great as Normal When Mothers Must Work; Figures Strikingly Significant to Race Group. COLORE MOTHERS FORM A LARGE PART OF WORKERS Washington.—Additional evidence that the employment of mothers away from their homes, particularly during confinement, or during pregnancy, is detrimental to the infant's health, is adduced by the Children's Bureau of the Department of Labor in a report about to be made public. The material has been gathered as the result of a year's study of the conditions surrounding maternity, in a community of over a half million people. The report will state in part: "The employment of mothers during pregnancy was found to be associated with a markedly high still-birth rate, a high rate of maternal mortality rate during the first month of life, and a high mortality from causes peculiar to early infancy causes which are directly related to the health of the mother before birth." Sterilization services are given regarding to the per centages of stillbirths, premature births and infant mortality, as between women engaged in industrial pursuits and those not so employed. The mortality rate during the first month of life, was shown was 77.3 per 1,000 of the babies of mothers employed from home, or nearly twice the rate, 33.9, among the babies of mothers who were not so employed. The report continues: "The employment of the mother to soothe the maternity movement also appears to be a factor in the infant mortality rate. The mortality rate among the babies included in this study whose mothers were employed from home, or nearly twice the first year of life was found to be one and one-half times the rate among babies of mothers not so employed." Besides emphasizing that children of employed mothers must be artificially red and are thus deprived of a very valuable factor in the maternity movement, they go on to indict the future industrial system by stating: "That the low earnings of the father bear the principal responsibility for the employment of the mother is shown by the marked contrast between the so-called come great reward to the mother, and the reward of mothers employed. Of the mothers in families in which the fathers earned less than $450, 29.2 per cent were gainfully employed away home during the winter months, and the percent of the mothers in families in which the father's earnings were $1,250, or over were so employed at that period. "The contrast is equally striking in the case of occupants following in the footsteps of the mother homes in which the father's earnings were less than $400, 22.4 per cent were gainfully employed away from home during the infant's first year of life, as compared with mothers in homes in which the father's earnings were $1,250 or over. The greater prevalence or mothers employment in the low income groups is evidently a factor in the high income rate rather than the characterizes family with low incomes." Previous reports of the Children's Bureau on infant mortality have shown a definite connection between income and infant mortality. As the income increases the infant death rate decreases. This study, which is of the city of Baltimore, has allowed a large- and permits a closer analysis of the single factor of employments of mothers. Norfolk Boy Wins Honors At Tufts Mr. Earl B.

SATURDAY, MARCH 24, 1923 Seek the bright side; although we suffered a coal shortage during the winter, a cold shortage was very much in evidence. The Congressional recess has made it possible for the printers to catch up on undelivered speeches in Congress, at a cost of $10,800. Talk may be cheap but printing is costly. Siki, the Senegalese conqueror of Georges Carpentier, the French boxing idol, was coaxed into a twenty-round boxing fissco with an Irishman to find at the end of the affair that the son of Erin had been awarded the decision on points; to the astonishment of the African-Frenchman: Siki thrives on hard fighting and hard liquor, and his manager should never have permitted him to undertake anything soft and fancy, like a boxing match. Had he been detailed to knock Mr. McTigue for a flock of goals in three or four rounds he would have done it. Boxing is in his line. It is gratifying to have it from no less an authority than the Journal of the American Medical Association that the experiences of scientific men have proved at last that there is "no inherent tendency or susceptibility on the part of the colored race to tuberculosis," and that the ravages of the disease among members of the race is due to "ignorance, superstition and unwholesome and unhygienic living conditions." That is what intelligent Negroes have always contended, and it is reassuring to have the doctors admit it as the death rate goes down before the onward march of education and improved living conditions. What the English Pay Us Those who have a weakness for war, on a personal or National scale and there are plenty such, have a striking object lesson in the refunding of the war debt of Great Britain to the United States, with the obvious fact that war is all that General Sherman bluntly declared it to be, with the additional understanding that those who raise it pay for it. They may draw a useful lesson from it or they may not. It is a fair statement of the truth that persons and Nations do not learn much by experience. They go on doing the same things which have ruined others, with the facts well in their minds, as if they were simply determined to "know for themselves and not for another," as prayer meeting sisters and brothers delight to phrase it. Great Britain owes the United States a total of $4,600,000,000. Those are staggering figures. They make the intelligent persons who understand them and their significance and who have to pay them, shudder at the burden. By the terms of the refunding agreement Great Britain will discharge the obligation to us at the rate of $500,000 a day for sixty-two years. Can you imagine it? And this war debt is only fraction of the accumulated war debts of the British Government, and which make British citizenship one of the most highly taxed in the world. There are other Nations which owe us billions of dollars, on which we are paying interest as bonded obligations, but upon which they are not paying us any interest and show little disposition to talk about the payment of the principal, but they will have to do so when we get tired of their evasions and excuses. News, Opinion and Advertising A great many people who read newspapers will be interested in a discussion now going on about what is news anyhow, as most people have a hazy idea about it. We come in contact with this phase of the matter constantly in the management of the JOURNAL AND GUIDE, and we have trouble in making people understand that contributions to the newspapers are of three characters; that is, news, opinion and advertising, the trouble being in confusing the one for the other. It should be helpful all around to know that news is anything that happens, or may happen with reasonable certainty, the value of the news depending upon the interest people generally may have in it. Some news interests all of the people of the city, some only a few, some colored folks and some white folks. It depends, and the reader can resolve the matter infinitely if he will. Opinion is purely a comment on news happenings, on what people do and say that has a general appeal, and is supposed to be found in the editorial and not in the news department of the paper, and to be signed by the writer when it is not. Advertising is a distinct feature of the newspaper and covers everything that the advertiser expects to make a profit out of. If it is an entertainment before it comes off, it falls in the advertising department and should be paid for at regular rates. We have much trouble with people who give entertainments of one sort or another out of which they expect to make something and who insist that announcement of the event be printed as news. It does not become news until after the entertainment has been pulled off, and then it is for the business manager to decide whether there is enough news interest in it to warrant publishing it without charging advertising rates for it. Long lists of names and elaborate descriptions of costumes, which interest those concerned but not the general reader, usually fall into the advertising department as the editor seldom allows them to get in free of charge. If you expect to get pay or personal gratification out of anything you want to appear in the newspaper be prepared to pay advertising rates for it. Portraits are printed when they have news value; as in the case of a person who in winning distinction in a certain line, or is otherwise in the public eye. Newspapers are glad to run portraits of such persons as news matter, but when the running of a portrait is for the mere purpose of appeasing one's vanity or enhancing one's business, it comes properly under the head of advertising and must be paid for as such and consigned to the advertising columns. If a portrait has news value, it is run without cost. If it has no news value it will not be run as such, even at advertising rates. Briefs and Spices (BY S, J, C.) The Michigan girl reported to have had a temperature of 114 is proved a hoax, says a press report. Why not say it in plain English? According to reformers the world is a good place to live in, but it isn't such a place to live good in. Some people think they are taking life seriously when they go around carrying a stiff upper lip. In Utah formerly you could have as many wives as you wanted; today, the law forbids the use of one cigarette publicly. How's that for a reversal of form? "Daily prayers hold at bottom of coal mine"—Head-line. No better place could be selected to expose the bright side of a dark subject. "February blizzards in the cotton belt are believed to be killed of a large proportion of boll weevil." News Item. Now for a new alibi for the race exodus North. The time is rapidly approaching when we can point with pride to our diminished coal bins. Hair manufacture in the United States tops the ten million dollar mark. Another proof that bobbled hair and bald heads are getting unpopular. We see by the papers that a Chicago University has a markswoman's team that is said to shoot better than the men. Would you say they excel in trigger-mometry? Fortune favors the brave. Battling Siki has the distinction of being a man of real courage. But poor Siki didn't have a show.

In our own country, in recent years, we have had champions sadly wanting in the personality fibre that the world demands in sports. But not even at its unhappiest has an American contest awarded the belt of world championship to an individual so lacking in the finer attributes of physical supremacy as the Senegalese -who has just been humbled by the force without sainthood -with this judgment anything to do with Sik's racial origin or the color of his skin. There are Senegalese of great attractiveness, of fine character and personal charm, but Sik is not one of them. His performance. in Paris. His performance. without sainthood, has been a consistent, record of self-indulgence, cheap vangling and undeified braggartry. It is better for the sport of pugilism, if sport it is, and for the peace of mind of all who follow its fortunes, that Sik has his crown with poor grace and doffs it to nearly everybody's great relief.—Norfolk Virginian-Pilot. Letters From The People Letters From The People Gymnasium and Stadium for New School Editor, Journal and Guide. Sir; You can imagine the pro-foundest joy experienced by me, when I was informed through your paper that we were to have a new High School for our colored youth of my home city, you will assure you have a new school for you. I can picture this magnificent structure in my mind. There seems to be, however a discrepancy in the formation of the plans, of which, I did not understand, and I could possibly that a gymnasium could have been intentionally omitted in plans for a modern building of this kind. Please do not misunderstand the motive of my inquiry? It is not as a adult finder or critic that I broach the subject, but that I bring to bear upon this important subject, the most progressive educational thought and experience. As you know, there is, at this time, no athletic field or gymnasium large enough to accommodate one-third of the students. There is one at all. There are no more open fields, where our youths can get an opportunity for one or two hours of wholesome play. They must trespass and run the risk of being chased away by infuriated tenants or the police. We realize how important the health and physical stamina of the youth are as a national asset. Are our past experiences to teach us not only what we need to know, but that was taught by the dirical facts of circumstances which confronted us then? The lesson of unpreparedness will never be forgotten by the nation. These conditions existed because our mental lessons with their mental lessons the necessity of a well balanced physical efficiency. Where is the voice of the leaders, the pulpit, the press and the intelligent thinkers, to allow this impediment not only to exist, but grow with our professional and personal experience them to the glaring needs of our coming generation? Are they to criticize forever from their raised platforms, without a plan to improve? All of us in need of new suggestions good are in need of new suggestions good, towards constructive improvements. What social standard do you expect an educated youth of this proposed High School or any institution of learning to set, when the greater need for secure hours are spent in ill-ventilated, unhealthful, amusement houses. Everywhere is great discontent and misapprehension as to what will be required of our immoral youth? Yet the older order requires and a constructive encouraging hand. The Church, Y. M. C. A, B, Y. P. U. School, the Endeavor, Sunday School; all of them instructors, are in keeping with the most mental and spiritual standard possible for moral efficiency. Now where for moral body to get its moral subsistence. Look at the dance halls, they are crowded; look in the pool parliers, they are crowded, why? The physical nature of the dance halls and all your lectures and sermons could not stem it. So lend your voices in the bettiment and interests of youth, by securing them a gymnasium and training them a athlete who is training to allow them to cross his mind. His vitality has an outlet, and self control is not pulling against him but joins in the forces to train him, a vigorous man, physically and mentally, expect a youth who is really interested in the success and victory of his track, baseball, basketball, tennis or volleyball team, to smoke, drink, or moral code of the team will prevent it. If any of these temptations individually. Still our citizens discourage these sports, for they are not only the days when they rumped in the wildness of nature, when life was all play, and the call of work was drudgery, even now as they reflect of you, you they wish they were young. You they would have you did not have a place to exercise, your whole body seemed to miss its "something." That "something you driving the youths of today when you have no gymnasium or stadium. The philosophic insight into the present day tendencies of society is the thorough realization of a social realization, salvation, through a high standard of athletics and education. You have a building for the education of your students, colored houses. Where are they to have lived from their studies, where could they possibly exercise if they cared to the streets are becoming crowded more modern than the real dangers of modern traffic? The realization of every individual comes from What Is Going On in the Churches of the City his environment. What advantages do a student obtain from education when he spends eight or nine hours in the classroom, and the greater part of the twenty-four hours in a day, in physical education and in dancehalts. The student must have reaction from studies, and since there are no other places, he seeks those of immoral and degrading status. It is sad but, nevertheless true. He work and no play not only makes a dull boy, but a social degenerate, and a menca to society at large. To debar the youth from activities necessary to the development of the highest type of efficiency and culture, means, of course, that he must be sat in a chair, and not a narrower, social and cultural horizon. In. In. has with Negro statistics, says, "Vice and disease will ultimately result in the undanding of the colored race." Allow great and not one of any race. Must be youths knowingly and unconciously disentangle before the forces of vice and disease in this intelligent age. May God deliver them therefrom, for their bodies which are inherently weak can not sustain the fight that these forces sport in all of agressive city. The brain may know how but the flesh will be weak. The mind may be willing, but the body cannot support. For to the extent you save the community the higher cost of disease, immorality and crime. The practical opportunity is advancing a step backwards in the education of the future generation. No modern high school is built today without a gymnasium and a stadium, it is a part of the city without it, the high school is lacking in its educational department of its educational facilities. The voice of our coming generation demands it. The voice of the students today, the criterion of public education, let the pulpit of those citizen who believes in the success and prosperity of Norfolk. If the legislative refuses a gymnasium and stadium let the pulpit resound, the voice of our youths, let the papers proclaim, the plan of those who have sacrificed for this, instigating every student to attend a stadium to our brilliant example of education. The legislative has done its part, let us act. The watchword, of a gymnasium at any cost on each child's mouth. The youths calling, calling, let us respond. Please do not throw this in the scrap basket. It is faulty I admit, but thought of which flows the secret access to any community, public opinion.

Dr. Knight Preaches At Second Calvary The special services in progress at Second Calvary Baptist Church have met with encouraging success so far. The church has been crowded several nights since the meetings began. Some of the most eminent ministers in Tidewater have preached at various times. On Friday at 3 o'clock, Rev. I W. S. Knight, white, pastor of Park Place Baptist Church, delivered an impressive and striking sermon. Dr. Knight refrained from hunting up any special sermon to preach to a colored congregation, but with fervor and sincerity preached a Christian Gospel that was a great spiritual treat to his audience. His sermon, alotho, literary masterpiece, the author of a powerful magnetism that the congregation was ever ready with sincere "Amens." He divided his discourse in two topics: "Satan Wants You and God Wants You." In the treatment of the first topic, Dr. Knight portrayed the awful consequences of sin upon man. He told the how the habit to sin takes hold of the man, and how the loss of the life of an individual. He said it affect, that satan tempts with the things that appear to be the best and sweetest. Buried deep in the nectar of the beautiful flower of good times and worthy pleasure is often poisonous venom of sin planted there by satan to ensnare and entrap the unwary. In the treatment of the second topic, "God Wants You," Dr. Knight dealt upon the beauties of a Christian life and the marvellous effect it has on the individual. He made it plain that salvation is the seeking of it. Men are conceived and born in sin, declared Dr. Knight, and are freed of it only through the atonement of Jesus Christ. And the atonement of the those who want and seek salvation. The services will continue until the end of the month and several other prominent ministers are yet to preach. UNITED ORDER KNIGHTS MT.

There were quite a number of the officers and teachers at the opening. The pastor preached a wonderful sermon from the subject, God's Personal Care for His Children." He so beautifully illustrated how God had numbered the hairs of our head, and how he watched over us. He was so kind and fell. Even so he watches over his children for we are of more value than the sparrows; he can and will care for us. Text found St. Matt. 19:30 At 3:30 Rev. I. D. S.

Dear Brownies: Please send in some jingles and stories, I am anxious to have some real matter from your pens. And you have not said a word about the story I am trying so hard to write about Henry and Hannah and I asked you to tell me something to put in the story. It seems to me some bright Brownie might think of something fine for me to make, but I must take their million. Old Peek-a-boo wants you to help and tell something COMING EVENTS Miss Carolyn V.

B., in Education at Howard University, and taught for one year in the schools of West Virginia. Re-entering Howard University Conservatory of Music, she took the degree Mus. B., cum laude.

Possessing a depth of feeling and emotion that makes her an artist in the presentation of her numbers, Miss Grant showcases the quality of the pleasing closeness. At present she is teaching in the Howard Conservatory of Music and serves as director of the University choir. She will be accompanied by Miss Madeline Coleman, who is also on the faculty of Howard Conservatory. Miss Coleman is a graduate of New England Conservatory and is a musician of no mean ability. R. NATHANIEL DETT AND HAMPTON GLEE CLUB HERE Probably the greatest musical entertainment to be heard in this city for many years will be here April 13, when R. Nathaniel Dett, of Hampton Institute, pianist and composer, will appear in recital at the Armory hall and directing the Hampton Glee Club of 30 voices, in a grand concert. Mr. Dett's reputation as a musician and composer is national. He is recognized as the greatest musician of his race today and stands prominent with the great musicians of all races. Thousands have heard R. Nathaniel Dett in recital and directing great choruses. Hampton Glee Club is composed of 30 especially trained singers who seldom entertain outside of the campus, except on extraordinary occasions. Last week Mr. Dett and the club rendered a concert in Richmond before an him your seat; then you with shame will be compelled to take the lowest seat. He is truly great that is little in himself and that maketh no account of any height of honors." Thomas A. Kempis. Zacchaeus, a man small in statue, desired to see Jesus, ran and climbed a tree. Jesus saw him and commanded him to come down, saying, "This day is salvation come to your house." Zacchaeus made a banquet for Jesus, and became his disciple. "Honesty is the best policy, but the one who is honest only through policy cannot be depended on to resist very much temptation." 3. Jesus The Suffering Redeemer-Ls. 10, 11. Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane prayed while sweat like drops of blood ran down, this prayer, "If it is thy will, Father let this cup pass." "Everyone must bear his own burden, endure his own pain, die by himself, and alone face the deep problem of his relations to the universe and the Master of life." Jesus dies the awful death of the cross. The Just One dying for the unjust-Just tasted death for every man. He died that we might live. There is but one result that can warrant the agony of Calvary, and that mark his conquerors over sin. Mark Pense. "The one thing that we have to do is to die; how shall we face death? To live rightly is the only preparation for dying rightly." Read Isa. 53. WANTED! 500 Intelligent W to come NORTH at our expense, or wear FREE. Write today send 25 cents stamp ulars.

The fraternity has set the admission prices much lower than what is usually charged to hear a concert of this magnitude, but it is the aim to afford in-opportunity for all the citizens to hear Prof. Dett and his Glee Club.

It's motives are to foster Negro education, and to that end maintains a scholarship fund, for which the proceeds from this entertainment will be used. All of Norfolk and Tidewater are invited and urged to give to R. Nathaniel Dett, the race's foremost pianist and composer, a mighty ovation when he appears at the Armory hall.

New plants for setting out this spring can be purchased at small cost from a nurseryman, or perhaps may be obtained free from a neighbor. In either case, says the United States Department of Agriculture, the bed should contain some plants knows as a perfect-blossom variety, otherwise the plants of the imperfect-blossom variety in the bed will not be pollinated and consequently will not bear fruit. will not have Strawberry blossoms are of two kinds. One kind is called perfect, staminate, or male, and the other kind imperfect, pistilate, or female. Some varieties have perfect blossoms and other varieties have imperfect blossoms. Those with perfect blossoms produce pollen which will fertilize both perfect and imperfect blossoms and enable them to bear fruit. The varieties with imperfect blossoms can not set fruit without receiving pollen from perfect blossoms. pullet plants. If both kinds are planted there should be at least one row of the perfect-blossom variety to four rows with imperfect blossoms. The nurseryman's catalogue will specify the kind of blossoms. Set the plants early in the spring, if possible, so they will get the benefit of the spring rains and make a strong growth. Trim off the dead leaves and all but one or two live ones and cut the roots to 4 or 5 inches long. Spread the roots somewhat and set the plants the same depth in the soil as they were before they were dug. Be especially careful not to set them deeper and not to get earth over the growing crowns, for this will probably kill the plants. The plants may be grown in rows or in narrow or wide matted rows. For very small areas, plants set in hills close together will no doubt produce the most and largest fruit, but will require more care than matted rows. For hill crowding, set the plants 1 foot apart in the row and have the rows just far enough apart to cultivate easily, say from 2 to 3 feet: or set two rows a foot apart in double rows and have a space of 2 or 3 feet between the double rows. Keep all runners cut off and give good cultivation, so as to make extra strong plants. The value of milk consumed on farms in 1922 was nearly equal to the value of the milk sold, according to estimates of the United States Department of Agriculture. The farm value of milk sold is estimated at $22,000,000 and of milk consumed on farms at $636,000,000. Approximately 166,000,000 acres of privately owned forest land are wholly unprotected from fire, says the Forest Service, United States Department of Agriculture. On many other areas the protection is incomplete and inadequate. Based on a six-year average, the annual loss of property from forest fires is $16,424,000. Yet a yearly expenditure of $9,263,000 would fairly protect all of the privately owned timber lands in the United States. Wood is produced in every State in the Union, according to reports of the United States Department of Agriculture. In 1922 production totaled 219,035,000 pounds (not including pulled wool) compared with 225,545,000 pounds in 1921. Wyoming and Texas led in production in 1922, having produced 22,500,000 pounds and 19,300,000 pounds, respectively. Forest fires in the United States average 33,500 annually, says the Forest Service, United States Department of Agriculture. Based on a six-year average 7,088,000 acres are each year burned over and the immediate property loss is $16,424,000. "Keeping books" on the farm work, or farm accounting, is now taught in the eighth grade of public schools in 21 Ohio counties, according to reports to the United States Department of Agriculture, as a result of agricultural extension work in farm management in these counties. Fire control on national forests becomes every year more effective thru various forms of co-operation, says the Forest Service, United States Department of Agriculture. Man-caused fires are still the great hazard and the great problem. The only way, he says, to reduce these fires is to impress the habit of care with fire on the minds of users and visitors on national forests. In 1921 the total number of man-caused fires was 4,400; yet there is no more reason for the usual man-caused fire on the national forests than there is for the usual grade-crossing accident.

Avoid Chilling Eggs In Gathering For Hatching Eggs saved during late winter or early spring for hatching should be gathered often enough through the day to prevent any possibility of the germs being killed from becoming chilled, says the United States Department of Agriculture, and for best results should be stored in a moderately cool place where the temperature is between 50 and 75 degrees F. It is not advisable to hold hatching eggs longer than 10 days or 2 weeks before being incubated, and the fresher they are when set the better the chances of a good hatch and strong chicks. It is harmful to wash the eggs intended for hatching, as the pores become filled and the air is shut off from the living embryo. It is also advisable to test the eggs in each sitting for the removal of the infertile ones, which will give a better chance to those that are left. This should be done about the sixth or seventh day. A simple home-made tester can be made in a few minutes from a small wooden or pasteboard box of such size that a common hand lamp, a lantern, or a candle can be placed in it. A hole should be cut in the top directly over the flame, and another a little smaller than an egg in one side opposite the flame. The testing should be done in a dark room. In testing, the light shining through the egg held against the hole in the side of the box, shows the condition of the egg. An infertile egg is clear, while the fertile egg will show a spiderlike formation, a center with long, crooked threads, leading outward, and this formation will float as the egg is turned. M. E. PASTORS TO HOLD RACE CONFERENCE Will Meet in Louisville, Ky., to Discuss Effect of Racial Migration on North and South. Louisville, Ky.—Two hundred or more of the leading Negro city pastors of the Methodist Episcopal Church will gather in Louisville, Kentucky, from May 9th to 13, to discuss the problem facing the church and the race in northern and southern cities, and to arrive at means of their solution. The Conference will be held under the auspices of the Bureau of Negro Work, Board of Home Missions and Church Extension, Methodist Episcopal Church. Dr. W. A. C. Hughes, Director of the Bureau, will preside. Dr. I. Garland Penn, Jr., will be conference host. The Conference will make a special study of the movement of Negroes from South to North, noticeable during and since the World War. It will consider the results of this migration upon southern agriculture, southern cities, and upon the cities and industries which the Negroes are entering in the North. The trend of large numbers of Negroes away from the rural sections into southern cities, with the new problems of congestion, public health, housing, church crowding and school crowding, will also be considered. At least one session will be devoted to a consideration of Negro health in urban centers, This young lady gives all the credit for her beautiful hair and completion to EXELENTO preparations A wonderful preparation has been discovered that changes short, cool hair into a beautiful glossy sheen.

Tuberculosis Death Rate Decreasing Red Cross Rehabilitation Among The New Bern Fire Sufferers (Reprinted from the Journal of the Nation Medical Association, Jan.-Mar. 1923.) It is interesting and encouraging to note from the report of the Bureau of the Census, United States government, released December 4th, 1922 that "the trend of the tuberculosis death rate is downward." In the registration area in the United States in 1921 there were 88,000 deaths from tuberculosis. If the ratio of deaths from tuberculosis in the area that is not registered were the same, the total number was about 107,000. This is compared with 122,000 for 1920. In the 34 states of the registration area, all except one; Utah, showed a lowered rate for 1921. While the general report "tom the above standpoint is encouraging, it is not encouraging for us to note that the colored population still shows a high death rate compared with the white population. In all sections where there are colored people in sufficiently large numbers to be enumerated separately, the death rate among the colored population is a great deal higher than among the whites; in some instances being seems to be about the same proportion that has existed for years. For instance, Florida gives an adjusted rate for 1921 of 61.9 per hundred thousand of its white (Continued from Page One) There also hangs another picture reminding one of a New York sweat shop, except for the characters shown. It shows a mass of garments, thousands of pieces of all sizes and description, shipped from practically every state east of Michigan. These garments are bing assorted by those same white women or others of equal prominence and the colored victims being fitted out with emergency garments. Works In Two Divisions The American Red Cross work in the time of disaster is divided into two general divisions, Emergency period and permanent relief work. The emergency period exists only until all of the victims have been housed, clothed and fed. This period over, the permanent relief period begins. The work of this period consists of rehabilitation. This latter phase of the work is being carried on in New Bern at the present time and applies almost entirely to the colored fire sufferers. It means aiding them to get to the place where they can either rebuild their homes or find permanent homes in other places. They are housed about 600 of these people. The population, at various times since the fire has totaled nearly a thousand, but many have since rebuilt or secured homes with other families. The colony covers an expanse of about seventy acres of high and dry land, in the heart or the once densely populated Negro section, situated on a part of the late Isaac H. Smith estate, which lost five hundred houses in the fire. The tents are laid out in even rows with ample space between them. They are constructed of substantial pine board to a perpendicular height of about four feet where a heavy canvass meets and forms a pyramid shaped roof. They have wooden floors, are light, airy and sanitary; nicely heated and well ventilated. Each is furnished with enough good and substantial furniture for comfortable living. Each family is allotted the number of tents that will meet its requirements. Some have as many as five or six. One tent is reserved as a kitchen and no cooking is permitted in the sleeping quarters. Health Conditions Good The grounds are kept very clean. Sanitary toilets are provided, a playground with simple equipment is laid off, a community garden has been ploughed and vegetable planting started. On the ground are also a chapel, where regular services are held and an emergency hospital. Free medicine and free treatment are furnished the colonists. Clothes lines are provided in abundance in order that the mothers may not only wash for themselves but also take in washing for pay if they desire. Wood is sold at markets a wheelbarrow load. During the winter a wooded wood and tood were furnished free, but now the sole work is based upon rehabilitation and everything is being dispensed with that may be too paternalistic and efforts concentrated on helping the colonists to again become self supporting. The fire occurred December 1, but not one of the little victims missed Santa Claus. Red Cross established a Christmas tree and the tots were given toys and candies. A baby conference was recently held in Tent City where especial attention was given to the health conditions of these infants. A free Employment Bureau is maintained where more than 700 fire victims have been found employment. This office is operated in cooperation with the state and federal employment service. No fire victim who wants to work is out of employment. Mr. T. R. Buchanan is manager of Tent City. He is also at present in full charge of Red Cross work in New Bern in the absence of Captain Carter Taylor who was called further South during the recent storms in that section. Miss Curley, white, a Cornell graduate and a graduate of New York School of Philanthropy, and a very proficient woman in such education as minister of affairs on the grounds amidst the colored people. She is assisted by typists and Mrs. Mamie Pigott and Miss Charlotte Rhone, colored registered Red Cross nurses, both very proficient women whose work is commended in the highest terms by Mr. Buchanan and other Red Cross workers. Those In The Work Among those who are rendering this Christian service in the stricken city in the name of the American Red Cross are: Miss Helen Ryan, case supervisor; Miss Misa Stoete, case counsel; Miss Alice Stoete; Dorothy Dyer, Miss Cordelia Kemper, Miss Hope Bennett, Miss Ratterman, chaplain Batie, a world war veteran; population and 159.7 for its colored population. Kentucky 115.7 white, 326.1 colored; Louisiana 73.7 white, 213.7 colored; Maryland 97.9 white, 299.6 colored; Mississippi 55.7 white, 177.8 colored; New York 91.9 white against 306.9 colored; North Carolina 77.8 white, 211.1 colored; Pennsylvania 82.5 white 314.9 colored; South Carolina 58.1 white, 192.1 colored; Tennessee 114.2 white, 284.8 colored; Virginia 90.6 white, 258.4 colored. A great many arguments have been produced against statistical information, especially as it affects the colored population in comparison with the white; but setting aside criticism in this regard, statements of this kind from such an authoritative source should receive the most careful and thoughtful consideration on the part of the colored people themselves, and those who are interested in their welfare. In fact, any subject of this kind is worthy of the greatest consideration on the part of all, because tuberculosis is no respector of color. If a large percentage of the colored people are infected with it and the colored must associate, as they do, with the whites in the numerous activities of life, the latter are endangered by the infection of the former, and vice Dr. H. W. Fisher, local colored physician, at present in the service of the Red Cross and in charge of health service in Tent City. Your correspondent was driven to the colony by Dr. Fisher, who very kindly pointed out some of the features of the work, but what it has actually meant to the fire victims is best told by the tent inhabitants themselves. In reply to a question asked an aged woman, "How are you people getting on here?" the answer was "God only knows what would have become of us if these good people had not come in here." She was speaking of the Red Cross. When asked, "Were you comfortable in these tents all winter?" She said, "very well, better than I had expected." The sentiment expressed by the old lady is the general sentiment of the community and the citizens at large. Of course, there is a little grumbling which is expected in situations of this kind, but the kickers are infinitely in the minority and a wave of praise and commendation is held out for the Red Cross and the local white women's club by the leading colored people of the city. Special mention is made of the unselfish efforts of Mrs. Wade Meadows, Mrs. M. M. Marks, Mrs. Stevens and Mrs. Spencer. Mr. T. R. Buchanan, manager of Tent City; Miss Careway, publicity director and Miss Curley, very kindly granted your correspondent an interview on the situation, but they took for their organization only modest credit for the wonderful work done and strongly commended the work of the colored citizen's committee and the white women's club. The officials stated that a number of families had been permanently rehabilitated and all fire sufferers had been temporarily cared for. But, said they, the relief work must continue until the families now temporarily cared for are back on a permanent self supporting basis. This is the big task that lies ahead. They are confident, however, that the Rover Press will not quit the job until every fire situation has but be helped to overcome the handicap of the fire and is started safely back on the road of normal life. This program will possibly require several months work and an expenditure of much more money than has not been donated. A large amount of household effects is held in storage and as rapidly as families build homes enough of this furniture is given to them to start housekeeping again. Mr. Buchanan stated that with the advent of spring weather many other activities of recreation and entertainment of the periphery and contents of the tents, such as community songs and the like will be instituted. The official was prodigious in his praise of Rev. R. I. Johnson the Episcopal rector, for his work among his race in the disaster. Dr. Johnson has been a moving spirit in the relief work and keeps close to the situation. His church was used as emergency hospital during the first days of the calamity. Dr. Fisher is not only health officer, but also makes his walks through the colony he is singled out to listen to all the individual kicks, complains and wails. In fact his position is almost fatherly. There is no telling the exact amount of money donated to this work by colored citizens as the records are compiled by cities and not classified to donors. It is known that have been nearly $75,000 was contributed by cities states outside of what was appropriated by American National Red Cross.

We believe that it is more generally conceded now than formerly, that there is no inherent tendency or susceptibility on the part of the colored race to tuberculosis, and in this connection by "colored" we refer especially to the Negro because these figures deal more largely with Negro people than with any other colored race. We repeat, there is no special inherent tendency on the part of the Negro people to tuberculosis. We believe firmly that this higher death rate on our part is due to ignorance, superstition, unwholesome and unhygienic living conditions. We believe that careful study and investigations will support us in these conclusions. In an article published in the Monthly Bulletin of The Department of Public Health of the City of Philadelphia, July 1922, entitled "Some Facts in Relation to Pulmonary Tuberculosis in Philadelphia," by Dr. Harriet L. Hartley, Chief of Division of Child Hygiene, the results of some important studies and investigations with reference to tuberculosis and the Negro in the city of Philadelphia are set forth, tending to show that an increased mortality from tuberculosis does not neces- THE RACE EXODUS ALARMS THE SOUTH Atlanta, Ga., March 8.—"The growing industrial development of the South, the alarming exodus of Negroes to West and North is accompanied by immigration problems which the Southern business man will have to face in a few years," declared Edwin Tomilion in an address before the Kiwanis Club here last Tuesday afternoon. "To study the business of the South, study the immigration situation is growing in importance in southern states to be able to cope with the facts when the changed conditions actually come.

She presents figures to show that in ten different districts where many Negroes live, as for instance in the Thirtieth Ward, the death rate from tuberculosis averaged for ten years, 240.5 per 100,000 population, but in 1921 showed 237.3 instead; but in the Thirty-sixth Ward with a population of 55,225, which has increased by 5,000 during the last five years, and its colored population by from 20 to 24 per cent, the tuberculosis rate dropped in ten years from 249.3 to 219 per 100,000 population, and in 1921 was only 144.9. In the Seventh Ward, the colored population has increased during the ten years from 42 to 46 per cent. Its average mortality rate for the past ten years was 365.3, and for 1921 was reduced to 248.2. In the Forty-seventh Ward, the population has increased in ten years from 30,307 to 33,055 and the Negro population has increased in this same ward during that period of time from 4,143 to 9,210, but the tuberculosis death rate throughout this period has been even though the Negro population in the ward has been increasing until 1921, when it was found to be 128 to 100,000 population.

Valat kept a wine shop in Paris. His neighbor, a retired locksmith, became a friend of Valat and further sought to win the friendship of the wine dealer's wife. When he discovered the intimate relations which existed between his wife and the locksmith Valat decided to avenge himself, but not desiring to kill he asked the locksmith to pay him 40,000 franes which he needed to complete the purchase of his wine shop. The locksmith refused, whereupon Valat killed him. Probably because of his heroic conduct at Verdun Valat was acquitted, the unwritten law being recognized, but the jury, finding him Coughs, Colds, Are among the emergencies for man's remedy has, for more than proved its reliability.

The colored population readily responds to life-saving measures among its children, as can be seen in the lowering of the baby mortality rate. With the migration of the Negro to other words, free from congestion, and living in the proper numbers in individual houses, with good sanitary surroundings, and the mother of the family eagerly seeking and accepting the health, education available, it is very probable that the slowly decreasing death rate from pulmonary tuberculosis in the colored race, will soon receive an additional impetus, and is a few years show a decided and gratifying decline." These figures and statements would seem to support the marks above set forth and should be of the greatest possible courage to all white workers. The task before us is stupendous, but it is not broken. The death rate from tuberculosis is being lowered and can be lowered in the Negro race to the same encouraging degree is among the other races, proof the Negroes are given the nuances as others.

Unpublished History of Football and Baseball headwaiter at the known headwaiters in the country took the role of the Chamberlain Hotel at Old Point, he soon had one of the strongest teams to represent the famous hostelry, composed largely from the ranks of the Washington Grays and Market House Nines. Not to be outdone, Alex E. Hogger set a work to form a team worthy of their rivals. Both teams were faultlessly uniformed and the keenest rivalry existed between guests of the respective hotels, the managers down to the dishwashers and scullers. The contests were usually played on the National Soldiers Home Grounds at Hampton and attracted large crowds from the surrounding towns. Some times the games would be played at the Fort at Old Point. Governor Woodfin donated purses and was a great fan. Both teams had large followers of rabid partisans, which extended to the imates of Soldiers' Home. It was always interesting sight to see the old veterans around the field, and watch their enthusiasm. The games were always bitterly fought and as the teams were even matched the slightest "break" would decide them. I do not recall when there was a one-sided score, but once when Tom Wade, the star pitcher of the Chamberlain Club, a black Walter Johnson, shut the Hyegeis out at the Newport News Park. HOTELS ENCOURAGE BASEBALL Whether or not the idea was conceived in Florida, where most of the colored players went for the winter, most of the resorts encouraged baseball: Delaware Water Gap, Bryn Mawr, Lenox, Mass., Wildwood, and Atlantic City, N. J., and way up in the Catskill Mountains, the hotels at those places boasted teams.

While most student already takes an active part in one or more branches of sport or the prescribed physical exercises, the authorities of the institution realize that physical education as a part of the curricula will be far more effective, two proficient persons will be in charge of this part of the work next year. The course of Physical Education will be assisted by a woman, who will have immediate supervision of the training for the girls. MAJOR WHITEHEAD DIRECTS GYMNASTICS On March, 1st, sixty-two young men reported to Coaches Douglas and Wiley for baseball.

The forecast is that St. Paul will place in several events at the ampton Meet on May June in Williams, Yaney, Brooks, Green, Brown, Baskerville, Banks and Johnson, of 1922 faculty material improvement. Mr. Niles is with the interest manifested by the boys and expresses great hope for the future. HAMPTON AWARDS "H. B. B." TO 7 MEN Hampton, Va., Mar.—At an informal meeting of the varsity men who constituted the Hampton Institute basketball team for the season just closed, Junius T. Langston, of Whaleville, Va., was selected by his teammates to lead them next year. "J. T.," as he is known to his comrades, plays guard. He has played that position for two years. He is well liked and, incidentally, he is an all-round athlete. He played half-back on the football squad for two years and won his letter last year in track. As a 440-man "J. T." ran second to Jimmy Moore, of Penn State at Washington but May. In the same race at Hampton he followed the following week, he showed his heels to the entire field. The following men were awarded the "H. B. P." Gunn, excaptain; M. Alfred McNichols, Jr.; George W. Frazier, W. Garcia; dozo, David B. Burrell, Chester R. Jones, and Junius T. Langston, captain. All of these men will be at Hampton next year. Coaches Parker and Brown have predicted a championship team for Hampton. Interest is now turned toward baseball, track and tennis. Fifty-four reported for baseball and fifty reported for tennis. Hampton's nine should be the best that she has had for several seasons. There are many promising candidates that are working out daily. That mighty championship track team of 1922, with the exception of captain Valley, who graduated last June, has reported this year. There are several new that have reported, who have the most runs on the cinder path. The "Sesiders" relay team is the fastest ever. ever been shown on any screen in the city; also a Larry Semon comedy that will keep you laughing every second that he appears on the screen.

Popular prices prevail and the latest song hits are played by the Colonial New Jazz Orchestra, under the new leader, Prof. Ed. Gatewood. Mawr, Pa., that I finally got the consent of C. A. Burnett, head-waiter, to telegraph for "Ham." Of the many teams we played, all of them white, one of them, the Pennsylvania Railroad Club from Philadelphia, trimmed us every time. We had a double-header scheduled against them for July 24th and assured Burnett that Ham Will deliver the bacon. Accordingly, I hired him his fare requesting him to report at once, appraising him of the two games. I had talked so much about him that everybody was anxious to see him. Just after breakfast was over in the dining room, I was informed that a man wished to see me. With a bat bag and valise, in the pantry stood "Ham." I ordered breakfast for him and we went to the quarters, where he immediately became a favorite with his good humor and stories. Some of the waiters and bellmen looked a little suspicious as "Ham" would have been taken for anything else she saw a bat player. I shall never have seen a bat player saw him. "Harrison," he asked, "can he wait in the dining room?" I told him I thought he could wait on the hotel officers' table. "You say he is a pitcher?" I replied in the affirmative, but he questioned my judgment. "HAM" BRINGS THE BACON The first game was called at ten-thirty, and a great crowd witnessed it. When my "find" stepped in the pitcher's box, all eyes were on him. With a broad grin he began manipulating the hand with his long fingers, and having his long fingers, besides being a left hader, he easily defeated the team that had been our Jinx the whole season. DUPLICATES IN AFTERNOON When the team went on the field in the afternoon "Ham" faced the white boys again, and took them into camp. It is needless for me to say that he "owned Bryn Mawr afterwards. Bryn might advanced him into the main dining hall and he made good. Like Damon and Pythias, when "Ham" was at the bat, "Piggy" was on deck. tional Training, North Carolina State Hampton, Kittrell, Joseph K. Brick Bennett have been added to the schedule.
