Washington, D. C.—The political host begins to simmer. The pronouncement of Attorney General Daugherty at Miami, Florida, that President Harding will be a candidate for re nomination, and will be renominated, is conclusive. The one question now, who will conduct his campaign, Among the probabilities already mentioned are Will Hays, of Indiana; Charles D Hilles, of New York, former chairman of the National Com-
Data and correspondence relative to several other labor projects of a nation-wide scope were pilled high on the Commissioner's desk, and he was brought to staff into our pockets some office hours upon subjects which we had herebefore considered in all too light a vein. All in all, we are convinced beyond a reasonable doubt, that Phil H. Brown's office is a live, active center of labor information, genuinely dedicated to efficiency and usefulness. The Commission has been designated upon the staff of the department of Labor, is called "the eyes of the Government upon the labor activities of the Negro.
NATHANIEL DETT TO GET BIG OVATION HERE
City Will Turn Out in Full to Hear Great Race Composer and Hampton Inst. Glee Club.
Much interest: is being manifested throughout Norfolk and vicinity in the announced appearance here Friday night, April 13, of R. Nathaniel Dett, musician with the Hampton Institute Glee Club in the greatest musical festival staged in Norfolk for many years. The present indications are that the musician and his famous singers will be greeted by the largest audience of music fans in the city. He has ever before greeted them in any Virginia city.
Hundreds of citizens have long hoped for the opportunity to hear this famous race composer and conductor in one of his big concerts and now through the zealous efforts of the Alphas Alpha Alpha fraternity this opportunity will be brought to Norfolk public.
This combination—R. Nathaniel Dett and Hampton Institute Glee Club never fails to play to crowded houses and anticipating the great demand for seats for the concert here, the local committee has obtained the largest auditorium in the city for the concert.
An idea may be gained of the wonderful presentations of Mr. Dett and his students from the comment of Mr. Alexander Kosetz, conductor of the great Ukrainian National Chorus, who after listening to "Lego composer grouping" the Lego Lambe, and "I'll Never Turn Back No More," at Ogden Hall, Hampton Institute, last fall, remarked:
"This Negro composer's work is colossal in its significance of the cultural possibilities of Negroes. I return to it but put Prof. Lambe's compositions on my program and have my students study and internet Negro music."
K. Nathaniel Dett's compositions, which have been presented to the public by- well-known soloists and choral organizations, include three suites—"In The Bottoms," "Kagnolio," "Enchantment," "Jalapa," and "The Jail." Theatrical Jubilees, "Somebody's Knockin' At Your Door," "Zion Hallelujin," "A Thousand Years Ago Or More," "Ramah," "Music In The Mine," "O Holy Lord," "Poor Me," "Oh," The Land I Am Bound, "I'm So Glad Indoor," "Always Someone Pine My Vow To The Night," "A Meetin' Here Tonight," "Don't Be weary, Travelers" (Francis Boot Prize, Harvard, 1920). It is reported that the white Norfolk Music Club will forego their annual festival this year and it is believed that many white music clubs will avail themselves the opportunity of getting their annual music treatise from Mr. Dett and the Norfolk Glee Club.
Hampden, the local chapter, Alpha Phi Alpha is staging the mammoth affair on behalf of the Tidewater Scholarship Fund. Every effort is being made by this organization to stimulate Negro education, and person- tending the performance to giveen at the Armory hall will only have an evening of enjoyment, but also contribute to the use of education. Nothing is being left undone to make this affair, a credit to the city, to the race and to evident appreciation of the wonderful merit and possibilities of Negro music and artists.

Washington, D. C.-The political pot begins to simmer. The pronouncement of Attorney General Daugherty at Miami, Florida, that President Harding will be a candidate for renomination, and will be renominated, is conclusive. The one question now is, who will conduct his campaign, Among the probabilities already mentioned and all Hays, of Indiana; Charles D. Hiles, of Maryland; mer menher of the National Comms, and George Harvey, American ambassador to England.
It is said that Mr. Hays is in a responsive mood and stands ready to render whatever service the Republican party may make. His frequency and conferences in Washington lend color to the story.
Colored men, who stand highest in Republican circles, favor the selection of either Mr. Hays or Mr. Hiles, although they are agreed that Mr. Hays is not absolutely square on the race question.
Representative L. C. Dyer, of Missouri, speaking at a meeting held here on Sunday afternoon, under the auspices of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, flayed the Senate for its "miserable failure to pass the anti-lynch bill" which he would defend and the bill he would reintroduce the bill in the next Congress.
James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, also spoke. He ain't criticised the Republican party in general and Senator Franklin D. Carter, because of the failure of the bill.
"If the leader of the Republican majority in the Senate—Senator Lodge—had been sincerely interested in the Dyer, anti-lynching bill, it would have passed," he charged. This meeting meant that the future plan of the association in lynching would be outlined. The plan as set forth is to conduct the next fight along the lines of the one which, finally resulted in the defeat of the measure by a Democrat, and included in the Senate. Admitting that the Republican majority in the next Congress will be greatly reduced and that there is not the slightest chance for the bill's enactment, association spokesmen expressed the intention of waging a hopeless fight. Phil H. Brown, Commissioner of Conciliation in the U. S. Department of Labor, is indeed a very busy official, according to our way of thinking, after visiting his offices in the Labor Department Building. Sounding the rotund Commissioner found the present migration of Negroes from the South to northern plants, a hegira which is causing some consternation to cotton planters and other agriculturists of Dixieland. The Commissioner is making the observations of a hegira which is official releases from time to time. It was next our pleasure to take a "close-up" of some facts and figures which the Commissioner had garner-
MR. ASHBURNER TALKS TO THE THRIFT CLUB
Emphasizes Thrift and Self Improvement in Pleasing Address t oMen and Women.
City manager Charles E. Ashburner addressed the members of the Community Thrift Club and their guests Thursday night at the Community Health and Thrift Center.
Before seven o'clock the rooms were filled to capacity by those who were anxious to hear the speaker.
The distinguished visitor was surprised upon his arrival to behold such a large audience awaiting him. Ashburner, with logic and encouragement, He was loud in praise of the club for the work it has done and is striving to do.
He spoke mainly along the line of self and self improvement for which the club stands and took occasion to congratulate the club upon its success of punctuality. It was the only organization in Nefort, which to his knowledge meets and dismisses on time.
M. T. P. Turner, chairman of the finance committee, responded to the city manager's address in a highly commendable manner.
Prominent among the visitors was a large representation of the Clerical women's Club, of which Mrs. J. C. Brooks is president.
The club felt itself highly honored to have in its midst, the city manager and a large number of other visitors. This even no doubt serves great to inspire it to do greater things in the future.
Public Utilities Secured

Odd Pickings
Paris—Promptly at 5 p.m. yesterday, while the Eiffel Tower radio was in the midst of a classical concert, an American can with an instrument giving of humor, owner of a strong, wireless outfit, broke in on the concert with the interruption: "Classical musical is not good," said the voice, speaking English, "let me give you some real music." The theater was armed with a tragiime, condition of Casey Jones.
Ruthsburg, Mo.—When Peter Cook and family moved from Ruthsburg last summer they carried Bob, their favorite cat, with them. When they arrived at their home, Bob, he was liberated to acquaint himself with his new surroundings. Bob took one look at Talbot county and departed. He has returned to his old home, he visited 37 miles to accomplish his farmwork, and has been six months making the journey from Royal Oak at Ruthsburg.
Springfield, Ill.—Ten commandments for every homemaker have been published by the Illinois Farmers' institute. They were compiled by Mrs. Grace Vail Gray as follows:
Thou shalt keep thy health.
Thou shalt not nag.
Thou shalt not worry.
Thou shalt know food values.
Thou shalt have labor-saving devices.
Thou shalt not clean and dust all the time.
Thou shalt love thy husband and children more, than thy husband, and more than thy shalt have thine own check book.
Thou shalt have a hobby.
Thou shalt have the auto from the back seat.
On the last commandment Mrs. Gray said the woman who nags the driver from the back seat "shows a lack of self-control. I want the women of Illinois to learn to control themselves, so they won't drive the auto from the back seat."
NORTHERN CHURGH FOLKS PREPARE FOR MIGRATION
Investigation Shows. That an Average of 34,000. Colored People Have Left the South Each Year From 1910-1920.
THIS YEA MAY ECLIPSE ALL OTHERS IN MIGRATION
New York City.—In the latter part of February, without much heralding, the York a few selected church leaders to discuss or, as the press notices put it, "exchange experience and information on Negro migration." A rather interesting summary and recommendation has been sent out by a committee as a result of this conference. It looks as if the North will have some adjustments to make for itself in connection with the increased Negro population, as a result of the new exodus.
The summary states that during 1910-30, the average increase of Negro population from the South amounted to more than 34,000 a year. This year will see an increase in this new citizenship. Northern industries and industrial activities are finding an increased interest in large lake labor. The immigration personnel, Southern States are overlooking the value of behaving in such a way as to attract investment and capital in the industries of the South, and, so one of the results will be that the colored brother will not only desire, but be willing to work in the South. He possesses a great race trait and capacity for long suffering.
This attitude in his case is more applicable to the soul than to the body one can care of and adjusting affairs in the North for the reception of the Southern colored folks is emphasized in the report with reference to leisure time activities, but is applicable to the North without the nation. The report states: "Religious advancement is undoubtedly fostered through leisure time activities. Therefore, we recommend that vigilance be exercised to see that such facilities are public facilities for recreation and that when necessary, such facilities be provided in neighborhoods where they live. That colored people be stimulated to avail themselves of the numerous grounds, libraries, museums, etc."
GREAT REVIVAL MEETINGS

WHITE, SUPREME COMMANDER OF WOODMEN, DIES
Failed to Rally After an Operation for Cancer of the Stomach; End Comes at St. Joseph Hospital at 7:20 P.M.

Denver, Colo., March 22. - Sucumbing to the effects of an operation for cancer of the stomach, Mr. C. M. White, Supreme Counsel for Woodmen, died last night at St. Joseph Hospital, this city at 7:20. Mr. White had been for some time suffering from the ill effects of his malady, but until an extended itinerary in the East did he decide to submit to an operation.
With Mr. White, death the race has lost an ardent worker for the economic freedom of Negroes, deprived of a leadership which has brought it from an organization with meager assets of seven thousand dollars to one with assets of one million or more, and not only has Denver by the nation lost a leading order.
WOODMEN'S LEADER 15 YEARS
Mr. White came to Denver in 1910 to assume active control of the affairs the American Woodmen and shortly thereafter to lead here. The major part of his time since then has been spent travelling over twenty-nine states in which Woodmen local organizations exist, and the extension of Woodcraft. During these trips he had established an enviable reputation as a public speaker, possibly appearing before as many as two thousand audiences. During this time he earned reputation as an organizer, having developed a field force of nearly one thousand men and women, and not only do these men and women, but a host of friends made in his frequent trips. Mr. White is survived by his wife, Mrs. Minnie White, and two children, John, who has been attending Lincoln University, and Frances, who has been attending Fisk University, and from shorter A. M. E. Church, Sunday, March 25th, at 1:30 p.m. and will be conducted with p.m. rites and ceremonies. Prominent Woodmen from all parts of the country are enmeshed in the leadership and pay their last respect to this noble character, their chief.
RACE VOTERS MAY
ELECT DEMOCRAT
Mayorality in Chicago Playing for Support. of Colored Electorate.
Chicago, Ill.—The colored voters of this city may duplicate the action of New York Negroes and elect a Democratic Mayor in the April election. Postmaster Luccar, Republican, is aspiring to succeed William Hale Thompson as mayor and Judge Dever, is the Democratic nominee. He is soliciting the support of the colored electorate on frank promises of the square deal. Colored people of the square intensely people of having a strong race man member of the school board. It is believed that in event of Judge Dever's election he will look favorably upon their interests in this respect. Then there is opposition to Senator McCain in institutional administration which may deflect a large number of Negro votes to the Democratic camp. Mayor Thompson publicly attributed his election both times to the support received from colored voters. The Democrats are pointing that the race will be dealt with the race in New York and are whining that a Democratic Chicago will even go New York a little better.

Scott, who pacified the Piutes in 1915 and has the greatest record of any living man as an Indian negotiator, was the first to exterminate the extermination of the entire tribe of fifty or sixty Indians in Southern Utah by the rifles of United States Marshalls, unless the Attorney General promptly recalled the Marshalls from their work of ejecting the Indians. "I am very much afraid the Indians will all be slain," General Scott said last night, "unless the use of violence is stopped at once."
General Scott said that he was recalled minutes before he was called upon by the Indian sheriff, Washington to go to Utah and take up the question in a friendly manner with the Indians. At the last uprising of the Piutes of this locality, when an attempt was made to drive them from across which had been their home for years, the Indians were then Chief of Staff of the United States Army, visited the embattled Indians, held a pow-wow with Chief Old Posey, and led him and his son and others of the tribe back to Bluff, where they gave themselves up as prisoners and were temporarily.

CLUBS
The visiting committee of the Hospital Aid Club paid their weekly visit to the King's Daughters Hospital last Thursday, carrying two baskets of oranges, lemons and sugar for the patients. These articles were conducted with 5-B, grades of Brighton school, teacher, Miss Eliza Watts and the 6-A, and 6-B, grades, through Miss Ethel Hutchins and the Mu-So-Lt Club of Mt. Hermon. It is commendable that this organization and these school children stop long enough in the day that they are not blest with good health.

INTER-RACIAL MEETING
HELD IN STATE CAPITOL
Dr. Morris, C. S. Morris, Jr., and Governor Trinkle Speak in the City Auditorium.
Richmond, Va.-More- than 7,000 white and colored persons packed the City Auditorium to overflowing here Sunday afternoon at the monster inter-racial mass meeting fostered by Boydon Institute. Rev. Dr. Charles Satchell Morris, Sr., celebrated clergyman and his son, Charles Satchell Morris, Jr., famous orator, were the principal speakers. The former was introduced to the Rev. Dr. George W. McDaniel, the pastor of the First Baptist Church (white) and the latter by Mrs. E. B. Stokes, prominent local clubwoman.
Dr. Morris declared in part: "The races are here to stay. You can move a family or tribe, but when ten million people take three centuries root on a continent there occurs an event as fixed as the Alps to Italy.. Since we shall forever dwell side by side, we dare not allow the criminals of either race to menace our peace." Mr. Morris, Jr., said: "The South's paramount duty is to divest itself of hatred on the score of race, and to cleanse itself of antipathy on the base of color. The Negro's paramount duty is to have a larger finer faith in himself, a firmer faith in the ultimate triumph of right, justice coupled with an insatiable desire manifest: the manhood of the man."
His Excellency, Gov. E. Lee Trinkle, commented as follows: "One reason that I am here is that I know something of the great work of Dr. Morris and his son. Secondly, I wish to express to you my personal interest in the happiness, advancement and contentment of the colored people of the state of Virginia. The field of opportunity is open to you.

LEADS PROGRESSIVE FIGHT
IN JAMAICAN ASSEMBLY
Crusader Service
Kingston, Jamiaca, March.—A crisis has arisen in the political life of the people of this large and beautiful island. The Legislative Council which has limited Constitutional powers and is made up of nominated exofficio and elected members, is discussing the recommendations of the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies, Major Wood, for a change in the Constitution. Alone of all the members, Barrister J. A. G. Smith, a colored man, expresses advanced views, demanding the substance of representative government, and not its shadow. Mr. Smith, whose viewpoint on the subject has the approval of the widely read and influential Herald, stood alone in his demand that the governor shall be deprived of any power to nominate members to the Council. Although not very advanced in political ideals all the elected and many nominated members are opposed to the present anomalous and undemocratic system.

Colored Art Theatre, in Windy City, Gives Moliere and Expressionist Drama.
Chicago, Ill. Mar.-Here, in what might be called, artistically speaking, the home town of Mary Garden, greatest of Salomes, a Negro girl has assumed the mantle of Oscar Wilde's famous heroine. A cabaret dancer has played Moliere's immortal rogue, Scapin. And a company of colored actors have recovered and produced German drama in the "Roger expressionism" which makes "Roger Bloomer" look very, very commonplace.
This remarkable experiment is preparing to move east. By easy stages and the hard road of much rehearsal and many performances it may ultimately reach New York probably next fall.
The company played in one of the houses of south Chicago under the name of the Negro Folk Theatre. The results of presenting Wilde, Moliere, and expressionism to the colored population of Chicago seems to have been largely artistic. Its support has come from the theater, which has backed the various little theatres and community playhouses of Chicago. The Negro Folk Theatre has been the ambitious undertaking of Raymond O'Neill, a director; who worked for some years at the head of the Cleveland Playhouse, an amateur producing theatre. After a visit to Europe he returned to America, and gradually came to the opinion that he was the best expressive artist of the ill-trained group of the colored race than out of the white amateurs and professionals.
O'Neill brought back from Germany the script of a play called "George." It was written some thirty years ago by Beuchner, a playwright so far ahead of his time that his plays were very little acted in his lifetime, and he himself, is now hailed as the "father of German expressionism." One of his dramas, "Danton's Death," was produced in Reinhardt's great circus theatre in Berlin, and may be given here next fall when the German director comes over at the invitation of Morris Gest. "George," is a play in twenty scenes that fade in and out of one another, as in "Johannes Kreisler" and "Roger Bloomer." A company named Neill got together in Nero Folk Theatre came, like most Negro companies, from all manner of occupations. Some of the actors were professionals. A couple had even toured Europe in plays. Others were cabaret dancers. One had been a barber.
Opinions vary considerably as to the artistic quality of the performances; but a good many Chicagoans assert that "The Rogueries of Scapin" became an extraordinarily amusing entertainment with the cabaret dancer skipping along and some of the company freely improvising their lines as they went along. Copeau, says one enthusiast, never did the play more amusingly in Paris.
I saw a special matinee of "Salome," which was given along with a comedy of Negro life, "The Chip Woman's Fortune." The latter, written by a Negro, W. Richardson, that naive and maidenly quality of Lady Gregory's Irish plays. Excellently acted by Evelyn Freer, Sidney Kirkpatrick and the rest of the plays by Ridgely Torrence which Robert Edmond Jones and his colored players produced at the Garden Theatre some seven or eight years ago.
"Salome" was another matter. The illusion of Syria was intermittent. At times, however, you could ask for no better performance. When the voice of Jokanaan (Solomon Bruce) soared up from his prison it was magnificent, and always there was this marvellous vocal quality to the performance. Evelyn Freer, so exquisitely Negro in the top Wp-00, so out of "Salome" with a performance such as any Broadway actress might have felt satisfied to have given, and she threw in a dance which, within the proprieties, might almost have satisfied the demands of Herod. In spite of the generally exceptional diction, mispronunciations and unconsciously comic bits wandered into the performance, but, by and large, it did a great deal more than justice to this interminably wary and "precious" play.
Nixton, Texas, March—(Pacific News Bureau)—Martha Miles, the 105 year old colored woman, who recently died at the home of her son in Nixton, is said to be survived by 118 of the Miles offspring, the children running into the sixth generation: Her oldest daughter, Elvira Eli, is 87 years old, and two more. The world is waiting for her to get married in two minutes or drink himself to death, one minute.

STATE DENTAL ASSO'N TO MEET IN PETERSB'G
Tenth Annual Session of Virginia's Dentists will be Held from April 5th to 6th.
Petersburg, Va.—The Old Dominion State Dental Association will meet here April 5 and 6, in its tenth annual session; and locally many of the dentists will attend.
Dr. J. T. Lattimore, the secretary of the association, has issued a well arranged program and the coming meeting promises to be the most interesting in the history of the organization. A one hundred per cent attendance is expected, as many of the dentists have expressed themselves as being present.
The organization has grown numerically until now, and only three practitioners in the state are not members, and they have forwarded applications for membership in this coming session. Helpful lectures, clinics, and entertainments have been planned and the dentists all over the state will greet each other for the tenth period.
Is Separation Justice
"The Negro does not object to separation, but he does object, and rightly so, to the degradation and inferiority which segregation sometimes carries with it." With this declaration of Dr. Moton, superintendent of Tuskegee Institute, we believe that white men of the better sort can and do principle, agree. No honest man wishes that the Negro shall receive for his dollar less than a white man receives for it and no decent man wishes a Negro subjected to injustice because he is a Negro—Columbia State.

Do You Want to Live Long?
It is difficult to find any word for an eventure to deem 'down' and that that he deem not want to live. All forms of the eting to it and realise death to it no they can, but not of them can give no adequate reason for doing so nor for many life in an other eventor and waste of person in prolonged agony. However that may be, every work of eventure only only wants to live to live as long as possible. And there in nothing more plausible than a ground old age in which the person lived a full life and humble life. There be many more. They represent the very least that them in living.
Dr. Charles W. Killen, President
University of Harvard University, is
one of the grand old men of the age.
He is now celebrated his ninth
birthday, and in the last of health.
He found time to give the following
advice to those who want to live long:
Rest moderately, sleep at least seven
hours a night with windows open,
and regular exercise in the open air.
The existing which has been established to love in all of the Jurys states of the territory, the North and will be the South, to make the nation. They are usually very respected and necessary with respect to temperance, to skill, life, which reason of life we are apt to rise above in. but the道德良愿 of life we are more likely to the free religion than to the free justice, more way we relate to the common sense terms we will save other freely constituted than the free religion.

Heterom and Sicham
Walter L. Cloyne, of Litchfield, is made up of an abbreviating twenty in Republican politics as Mr. Anderson, and the failure of the Republican Senate majority in the last Congress to confirm the appointment of Mr. Cloyne to be comptroller of Connecticut at New Orleans, because he was chiefly responsible to the Democratic Senate from that state, will make us dominate if Mr. Anderson can be confirmed by the Senate until after it has been done. It is not a pleasant frame of mind for African-American Republicans to be in and to approach the next Presidential election, but that is the way the whole situation stands in our present relations to the Republican party.

to the man in the office of the other: the woman was of good manners and of a kind and fair manners; the man was courtiar and evil in his doing; he had two mighty fine recommendations as a husband, for he was rich and was deserved from a good family. But on the other hand, he had some traits and habits which dissuaded completely his points as a husband. He was rude and drunk, he was a heavy drinker and was with a feeling of his own impurity.
"Such a man was not worthy of a woman like Abigail. For while he had many glaring faults, for while he was in fullest measure the thirst for a good wife—good looks, good sex and good character. No wonder captivated David, the coming king of Israel, making him go back on his oath to wreak vengeance and putting a line on his tablet of the heath he just could not erase. One meeting with Abigail, and David, not forget her. She certainly had good looks, for she was 'of a good countenance.' Her good sense and speech in this brief hour when an armed band had an invincible captain was 'saved' wipe out her and all her family. In fact, she won a compliment for her discretion.

a woman and the can you almost imagine being the woman. But remember what was to compromise of Abigail's physical strength in a negotiation with her David. Along with this woman's physical and mental strength, there went in addition a good "Abigail," a woman clinging in every way, calculated to make any man turn his head, extending in his company, no matter in his company, Nakal, though born to wealth, standing, a ruse, living, having a marriage. By what means could one figure him a worthy husband such a woman? Without a Gothic Abigail was one woman in the Bible who had an unworthy husband.
"But twat strikes me is that there are some modern Abigailis, women of today, who have to single along with husbands who have for reason or another are unworthy. There is the economical woman, whose husband is a spendthrift. There is the sober woman whose husband is addicted to drink or drugs. There is the decent woman, whose husband is untrue, and then the woman more unfortunate still. Her husband may have one or two of the faults of these other worthless flowers, but in addition is brutally unkind, cursing her and beating her.
"But rushing into the divorce or descending to the same truce or resorting to murder; no one of these will bring permanent or simp relief to the illimated wife. Like a magistrate, put up with him, if possible, to remedy his mistakes. Wait to him. You don't know what God has in store for you. Possibly, as in the better of Abigail, another and better of husband. But not always; for it is sometimes contentment in one's children, or the comforting sympathy of one's friends, or absorbing interest in one's work or lodge or church."

The Proof of the Resurrection. "Just because the resurrection of Christ means so much for human life its faith must be grounded not on sentiment, so that we shall simply believe because we wish, and so shall be swamped with hearts. An angel in the court is bound by its conscience to criticise the evidence, for this great event, and it is fortunate that the first witnesses are beyond reproach. The testimony of the disciples to the revelation of Jesus' day is as strong as any thing which day is as strong as any thing for the best accredited fact in history. The apostles and the holy women were absolutely simple and honest country folk without any guile of spirit or trick of speech. There is not only no sign of artifice in their words, the reader is not driven because they are utterly buttery overcome with excitement—Has it ever been known in the annals of evidence that a body of simple-minded men should bear witness to a fact which before hand they were not able to believe whose declaration involved violence, danger, and in the end should believe so firmly that their faith made them into heroes and into saints." Rev. John Watson, D. D. (Jasper McClaren.)
Jesus entered into his glory through
the crown. The Crown comes after the
Crown.
Jesus is ever near those who love
and obey him.

It will be held forth in excellent entertainment from the beginning to the end.

BABIES AND MOTHERS
BY CHARLOTTE E. FOXBALL
Registered Nurse Greenville, N.C.
Greenville, N. C.—Every woman upon finding that she is to become a mother should place herself under the care of a nurse. The urine should be made at least every month.
During this period the bowels should be given particular attention, care be given to least one movement occurs every day.
The welfare of the baby depends largely upon the condition of its home and surroundings. A satisfactory home for a baby should provide plenty of fresh air and sunshine. Much of the baby's time should be spent out doors after it is 3 months old, on a porch, or in the yard. The baby must regularly clothed, according to the weather. The most loving act a mother can do is to nurse her baby. When baby nurses it not only gets the best food, but it is less liable to many disease, such as summer-compaints, convulsions, and tuberculosis. It needs a bottle-fed babies, 25 die in the first year of life, of every 100 breast fed babies only 6 die in the first year of life. If babies must be fed by bottle, keep baby under the supervision of a doctor or nurse.

CLEBRATES HIS 64TH
BIRTHDAY ANNIVERSARY
M.
DR. C. S. BROWN
Winton, N. C. The 23rd of March being Dr. Brown's birthday, was a big day at Waters Normal Institute. The members of the faculty and student body sought to make it a day of real experience. A person does not have to know Dr. C. S. Brown very long before he realizes that too much recognition cannot be shown him as North Carolina's intellectual giant. North Carolina's Dr. Brown has worked in Hertford County for 38 years, during which time he has helped the people marvelously. He may be well styled the founder of Waters Normal Institute. He meets its success to his unrighteous efforts.
On his 64th birthday, Dr. Brown looked well and hearty, and was doing as much work, if not more than he has ever done. At present he is the principal of Waters Normal Institute, president of Lott Care Baptist Church, and the Grand Master of the Odd Fellows of the State of North Carolina, corresponding secretary of Masonic Order of the State of North Carolina, and the corresponding secretary of the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina. Furthermore, he has four churches. The fact that Dr. Brown has many positive positions, shows that he is a man of extraordinary ability and character.
The members of the faculty, student body, and friends usually give him a birthday present each year. This year it was decided to give him an adding machine for his office. Realizing the expense of such a present, the students gave the circular letters to a few of the friends and graduates of the institution and get them to help us. The response coming from the circular letters was indeed, pleasing. The money accruing from the circular letters, members of the faculty, student body, and entertainments amounted to $132.05. We thank everyone who gave any thing toward everyone to make the occasion a success.
On the night of the 23rd, was the annual birthday reception. The chapel was crowded to its capacity. At the ringing of the last bell, Dr. and Mrs. Brown walked in amid the applauses and yells of the students. The reception followed. A Burrow adds Machinery present as a birthday present. The machine cost $110.00. In the drive we raised $132.05. Thus, in addition, to the machine, we presented Dr. Brown with a purse of $22.05. Dr. Brown rose and expressed his profound appreciation to graduates who had given him such a handsome gift. He has not success so much to his own genius, but to his host of friends who had stood by him in all his undertakings. He urged the students and friends to live in such a way that they might have worthy friends. Leo prays that Dr. C. S. Brown and all such men of his caliber, may live long to bless their day and generation.

Splendid Showing of the Baptist Foreign Missions
Philadelphia, Pa.—This is the 13th day of February. It is just 37 years ago when I was requested to leave the pastorate of Union Baptist Church and become Secretary of the Foreign Mission Board. Then we had one unpaid missionary, Rev. R. A. Jackson, who went to South Africa on his own accord. The Board was reorganized at Atlanta, Ga., September 1895 and moved from Richmond, Va., to Louisville, Ky. Rev. John H. Frank was made chairman, Rev. S. E. Smith, recording secretary, and Dr. D. A. Gaddio,
treasure.
In 1896 our asset in America was four chairs, one stove, one small wall desk and thirteen dollars. The $13 was used by the Board to send out literature notifying the denomination that I had been selected by the Foreign Mission Board and had accepted. Thirteen has been no "Hoodoo" for me. I was elected on the 13th day, begun the work on the 13th, completed my quarter of a century service as secretary on the 13th, 1921, resigned on the 13th and had a nervous breakdown in Indiana on the 13th day.
1922.
When I remember that during the 25 years I served, there went and came from foreign fields eighty missionaries. There were brought in touch with our Board more than two hundred young people from various countries of the earth, who came to us, received help in preparing for their life's work and that to-day, the National Baptist Convention has as assets in its foreign mission work nearly $70,000 in lands, houses, furnishings for churches, schools and mission stations. Our home or headquarters of the Board in Philadelphia is worth $15,000. The equipment for carrying on its work is worth possibly another $10,000. High above all earthly computation is, an army of prepared young native people to re-inforce our missionaries and a membership of quite forty thousand in other lands. Two of these young folk are doctors; they came to us as crudely heathen boys. They mastered our language, pushed through our grammar, our high schools and our colleges and then mastered one of our highest sciences—medicine. From heathendom to mediacd doctors all in 16 years. They are now back in Africa on their jobs of healing souls and bodies of their people. Two others are now finishing medicine. For all of this I am grateful to God and our brethren in all of the churches thrust out the country who co-operated with our Board and made it possible for me to transmit such a splendid legacy to my successor. And now that Rev. East is stressing the weekly offering with a monthly report (The Pauline Plan) as his goal, Oh! how I trust every loyal pastor in all the land will see that the money taken from Sunday to Sunday for missions is reported to the Board once a month. If ten thousand of our nearly nineteen thousand churches would do this we would have all the money we need for carrying on our foreign mission work. On Easter Sunday use our program. Write Dr. East, 701 S. 19th Street, Philadelphia. They are free; only give or divide the collection with the Board. "Deal kindly with my Master," brethren.
25TH INFANTRY MAKES REMARKABLE SHOWING
New York, March—Maj. Gen. E. M. Lewis, U. S. A., commanding the 8th Corps Area, in a recent official report covering the season of small arms practice for 1922 announces an unusual record in marksmanship made by the 25th Infantry, colored.
LEADS ALL REGIMENTS
The report shows that the 25th Infantry, all regiments of Infantry, Calvary, Field Artillery, Engineers, and all separate squadrons and machine gun battalions in 1922 in the 8th Corps Area in machine guns, pistol (dismounted course only), automatic rifle and rifle. In its 100 per cent machine gun qualification it was tied by the 23rd and the 25th Infantry.
The 22nd Machine Gun Squadrons and the 1st Battalion of the 38th Infantry.
The 1922 qualifications made by the 25th Infantry follow:
Machine gun.....100 per cent
Rifle.....96.1 per cent
Pistol (dismounted) 68.6 per cent
Automatic rifle.....44.8 per cent
HIGHEST EVER OBTAINED So far as is known the per cent of qualifications made by the 25th Industry is the highest ever obtained by military regiment in the service. It also is interesting to note that the 10th Calvary, which scored the second highest per cent qualifications, was distressed by try. The Calvary actually made a higher record than the Infantrymen, but suffered a decrease in the supplementary season.

NATIONAL BAPTIST BOARD LITERATURE
We have just received some periodicals edited, printed and published by the National Baptist Publishing Board located in Nashville, Tenn. This institution for more than twenty-seven years has specialized in producing modern Sunday school literature for such sunday schools as desire to get on the front-line basis. The literature for this quarter has some new and distinctive features that in a measure makes it peculiarly adapted to the Baptist Sunday. Schools everywhere. The music section with two songs, words and music, has placed this literature above that of any produced by any other denomination in that it gives the Sunday school scholar the advantage of a musical, as well as, a literary insight to the Sunday studies.
The new Secretary of the Publishing Board Henry A. Boyd, elected to succeed his Father, the late Dr. R. H. Boyd, together with the Editorial Secretary, Dr. D. J. Hull, have decided to lift as far as possible the standards by bringing every school up to a high mark. We especially refer to the Advance Quarterly, Intermediate Quarterly and the Primary Quarterly with the Easter Program or Greetings that have reached our desk recently.

The citizens of the city are making application to the Carnegie Foundation for a medal for the youthful colored hero.

Jealousy Said to be Cause of Tragedy; Young Woman Popular in Home City.
Wake Forest, N. C.—Jim Timberlake, 30, a barber, shot and instantly killed Mrs. Katie Thornton Green, 24, school teacher of West Raleigh, and a few minutes later shot and killed himself.
Mrs. Green came here five months ago to teach school and it is said that Timberlake had been going with her since then.
Timberlake had just returned from Raleigh and met the girl near the Allen school house, a short distance from where the shooting occurred. After shooting the girl, it appears, that he ran across an old corn field and at the edge of the cemetery shot himself through the temple.

Brownie Club BREEZES
Hannah's Millions
A Brownie Story in Serial Form
The Smith and Jones Financial Agency suffered a total loss during the financial dishevel in Gatesville. Our Brownie mogger all about the illiteracy the time of illness and stress, but as Mrs. Smith improved and Henry recovered his noise making the money feeling returned, and "What does Gatesville need that we can supply," became the slogan of the two little workers.
When they told their mothers about the trip to Atlantic City they would not listen. "You know we could never think of taking your money children after the fine way you have acted and never complained about the little things you have given up and you wholly neglected your business and all."
"Yes, mother, but we have some money we saved just for such an emergency. You know, we did not give all our earnings to the business, and then, you know, we didn't lose anything 'cause Hannah got suspicious and we buried our money under the house 'fore the bank busted." After this speech no persuasion could come and they laked the agency and their mothers went to Atlantic City for a full month. They got two good rooms without board and it was a rare treat to the ladies and the Brownies to get meals as best they could from the water and elsewhere. The time was not lost because Hannah and Henry watched everything and when the busy hour came discussed ways and means of making their million. They were so very much in earnest and they asked to a toast and think the thoughts of the children, "What does Gatesville need."
"Henry, I been thinking, you know, you don't study your lessons like I think you should and if you don't get educated I can't see how you will be able to manage our money when it gets bigger than it is now."
"Yes, I will 'cause you don't have to have so much education to make money, you just have to have brains. I know a man who never went to school at all, and he is very rich. He lives in Norfolk. Course he ain't no millionaire and I would be satisfied myself with less, but Hannah, you know since you and I agreed to make a whole million I want it and I am deceived to work 'till I am forty with that one idea when you know Abraham Lincoln was indeed something, and he didn't go to school."
"He didn't but he studied hard, Henry, and became a very intelligent man. Then how you would feel if you had everything and said 'aint' and 'nough' for no and split your verbs and didn't know how to act in company, and when you get ready to marry, who would want you."
"You are wrong there, Hannah, any girl would marry me for my money, even if it happened to be Miss Hannah Jones." "Shucks, Henry, I am not playing, I am serious and you must do better when school opens and try to make up lost time." "Just as you say Pal, I'll be a Bookor, if you say so and go about making grave speeches like a Bishop. But please do not cut off my fun, 'cause part of this financial agency likes to play when I am grown up I will like to play just the same only it will be different play." During the early part of their stay at the beach, Hannah and Hannah strayed onto a different location the beach, and came across a small child that appeared to be lost. Immediately they were all interested and lost no time in finding the parents of the child, who were nearly frantic because he had run away.
"We must in some way pay the children," said the father, "because Bill might have been drowned or something, and they were real nice to leave off their play and hunt us. Who are you anyway little fellow?"
"Are the Smith and Jones Financial Agent John Gatesville, but we are just john Horn Smith and Hannah Jones, here taking our mothers for a little vacation."
"Henry's mother's been sick since the bank busted and she needed a change." This speech from the bright eyed Hannah so amused V. Manderhust that he invited them to his cottage for lunch and made them tell the full story of the Agency, and when he saw that they were in earnest give some good and simple advice and making money.
"You win," he said, "because you have the three essentials for money making. You are smart, you are honest and you are determined. I will keep in touch with you, and today, am going to increase the capital of that agency $100."
"Oh no, Mr. Vanderhurst, we could not accept your money, because we did not do anything for it and we must earn this million in some way," said Henry.
"I understand, Henry, but you see, you must Bill back and suppose he had been drowned do you think my money would have been any use to me after that?" Henry dropped his gaze. "Yes, Henry, 'cause you know one of the first rules we made for the Agency was never fail to do a kind deed, and you said yourself that kindness paid big."
"Hannah's right." And the agency gladly accepted the check. They gave air, Vanderhurst their names and addresses and promised to be friends ever after.
The application over, Hannah and Henry returned to Gatesville. There were only four weeks left before the opening of school, but they had the fall cleaning done and put the office in repairs for the winter's work.—To be continued.

THE BROWNIE GIFT
(Catherine Dixon)
Two tiny Brownie brothers lived in a little house in the middle of a dart forest. Now what do you think these Brownies ate? Not bread and butter nor meat, nor milk, but mushrooms. They had mushrooms for breakfast, for dinner and supper. They raised thousands of them. One day Brownie Little looked out of the window and called. "See brother, there is a little girl picking our mushrooms. Drive her away." Brownie Big ran to the window and looked out. "I know that little girl," he said; "she is a poor child who lives with her mother on the edge of the forest. She looks and goes. She may have all the mushrooms she then the little girl saw the Brownies nearly dropped her basket, but when Brownie Big smiled at her she felt alright and came up quite close. "You may have all you want little girl and when ever you need anything like berries or mushrooms come into this part of the forest and we will show you where the best patches are."
Little Alice thanked the Brownies and after filling her 'basket full, she ran home to tell her mother what she had found.

BROODING HENS
The nest for sitting hens must be large enough to prevent the eggs from being crowded, or piled upon one another. It must be deep enough to protect the eggs from below and to help the hen by holding the warmth about the eggs. Comfort is a thing that must be carefully considered. The hen must be kept from other hens that might office by Mrs. Thomas as to what happened, she stated that her baby became ill during the towrick and she called upstairs to Warrick to go out and get her some medicine. He came down stairs half clad and was in the room sitting at the foot of the bed when Mr. Thomas came in. Mr. Thomas did not wait for an explanation, but began shooting. He shot Warrick twice while he was in the room and twice after he had rotten outside.
Lawyer Thomas refused to talk freely to the police, it was gathered, however, that he works nights and returned home unexpectedly. Hearing voices in the bedroom he tried the door and it was locked. Without stopping to knock he forced the door and found Warrick clad in undershirt, trousers and socks seated at the foot of his bed. Asked had he done the shooting he said, "I found him half clad and I hot him." Mrs. Thomas said that her husband had no reason hertofore to suspect her of wrong doing.

disturb her while setting. After the hens are disturbed they become nervous and are likely to break the eggs. Nests for sitting hens can be made in a variety of ways. They should be at least 14 inches square. Soap boxes answer the purpose very well. A box nine inches to fifteen inches wide and eighteen inches long provides ample room. The entire box should be lined with hay and there should be a cover over it.

Nests made of barrels laid on the side against a post and sheltered from the weather make useful nests for sitting hens and may be used as brooding coops for the hen and her chicks. When not needed for hatching they may be used as coops for the broody hens.
Sitting hens should be laid in the rear part of the barrel and the food and water placed on the outside at the front. When nests are prepared in this way the eggs are saved from danger and are confined to the nests.

In sad and loving remembrance of
my dear son, Abyche D. Foster, who
departed this life March 24, 1822.
It seems that a year has passed,
Since you left us and went away,
And our souls are ablime,
With fondness today.
You are some but not forcettion,
Since your memory fails,
Loving though you are a newer
Around the grave when you are laid.
The Lord took you away from us,
It was His Holy will,
Left in our hearts a vacancy.
Which no one else can fill.
But in our most moments,
He happily bounces hold away,
We shall still calm and be happy,
We shall gladly end.
In Loving memory of My dear Mother, Mrs Eden Stanill, who departed this life March 27, 1915. Sleep on dear mother and take your rest. We love you dearly, but Jesus love you best.

BERTIE SMITH AND THE GANE It was during one of the practice
It was during on games of the old Co-Op game, Smith pulled off a stunt that was extremely humorous. He had been thrown while carrying the ball, his head coming in contact with a rock. When he came to the practice the following day, he came on the field, limping with a cane.
PETER H. BURKE
If daily lickings and perseverance
counted, I would have been one of the greatest *basketball* players in the world. For some reason my father opposed playing the game, but no harm no harm then, and have found none since. "Each," day I would get my "gang" together and play, and each night he would play. "Each," day I had indulged in the great pastime. I would not deny it and the licking would follow. The only times I reacquire these three were thirty days—"wet" days, in the eldest of five boys. I had to
Strong Faculty Nine to Test Strength of 'Varsity on Saturday.
(By J. L. WHITEHEAD)
Lawrenceville, Va.-The enthusiastic, alert and aggressive bunch of lads composing St. Paul School's 1922 baseball squad are in trim for the long-waited-for Howard-St. Paul initial diamond clash, which is to be staged on historic Russell Field on Saturday. This will be the first of the two-game Tiger-Bison series, the second to be played on Tuesday following.

(By WILEY A HALL)
Petersburg, Va.—On Friday, March 23rd, in a fast uphill game, the Virginia Normal nine defeated the Lincoln University (Pa.) nine to the tune of 14, and the Hill Toppers nine first, both teams showed up in mid-season form, and the game was quite exciting.
Lincoln started by getting two runs in the first half, and in their half, Coming back Lincoln scored two in the second and one in the third, but this was tied again in the last of the third. Beginning with the fourth inning, each team settled for three runs, and the evidence of the fact that the score remained tied until the last of the 8th, when the Hill Toppers found Johnson's delivery for three hits, coupled with a scoring, putting the two runs in which the game was won. This game was featured by the great ground covering by the Lincoln outfield, and by the masterly delivery of "Slim" Armstrong, the Hill Toppers ace, who struck out 14 men.
On Saturday, Lincoln sent in her
papers to the White House, and
persons began to connect with him freely,
so much so that he was called out
to help. He was a good judge, and

Cecil B. DeMille presents one of his greatest productions, "Saturday Night," a Paramount picture with all the crash and tinge of the vividest melodrama, all the poignant heart of love, all the gorgeous love; all the gorgeous color that glows through every picture made by DeMille, at the Colonial Theatre, Portsmouth, the first days of next week. He presents all this and more, for her own style, for her style salon, yet throbbing with age old primitive instincts that drive every man and woman on to their fate. The story of an heiress who wedded her chauffeur; of a washerwoman's chauffeur; of a son of wealth; of these four wonderful men and facing a strange new world. You must see this picture to learn what
assist in doing part of the domestic work.
THE DRESS INCIDENT
Alton related to me recently how to, keep me indoors, mother put me in a "Mother Hubbard" dress. I heard the boys whistling, yelling and playing. Not to be too shocked, but fence and took my accustomed place among them. I recall sliding to second, and my dress came off, but I kept playing and finished course I got my tunic, "tunning" that night.
WHEN WHIPPINGS CERASED
it was during the time when the old Gymnasium was holding forth as the Norfolk team. Many will soon be in there a big tree at the corner of Wide Street and Princess Anne Avenue. Norfolk played a series of games with a Baltimore Club and one of their members was reported to be on vacation with excitement, and I had a "reserved" seat in one of the highest branches of that tree. During one of the exciting moments of that game, I heard a familiar voice, looking below me on a lower ledge. I discovered my father. When he was ashamed to mention it that night I do not know, but I know my likings ceased from that day. Perhaps father caught the contagion.

present baseball fame will test the dexterity and playing calibre of the *varsity*. The following named gentlemen form the faculty machine:
Mr. J. W. Anderson, (Yale), Mr. Winston Douglas, (Lincoln), Mr. G. W. C. Niles, (Colby), Rev. J. A. Vin Rusell, (Oberlin); Mr. J. A. H. Turner, (Taukeegle), Mr. J. D. White, (Hampton), Major W. M. Whitehead, (Pennsylvania), and Mr. F. L. Wiley, (Morrow). Although this game is merely a practice one, it is an annual affair, and the faculty vs. student baseball games are held every year, very helpful. The boys are practicing diligently for the tilt. Hereofer the 'varsity has emerged from the fray victoriously, nevertheless, the game is still very closely held, but they are anticipating a stubborn fight on March 31st.

stopping until the grand total of 12 runs for the Hill Toppers had been registered while Lincoln could only get 4. The game started—as did the game before it, when Lincoln scored in their half of the first. This time she scored 3 runs, but the jam up fielding of Epps in short, Armstead (pitcher) on second, and Jack Coles in third, changed for the feminal of the game that attempted rally in the ninth. In their half of the ninth, Johnson was sent in as a pinch hitter, and he started off by getting a single, this was followed by getting a double, then them a run. Again the in-field, tightened up, ending the game with three men on bases.

As soon as Freeman fell, with a gash in his side that seemed certain to prove fatal, he was rushed to Grady and palced on the operating table, with resident surgeon at the hospital. Five stitches were taken in the heart. And after each was sewed, Dr. Smith had to replace the head in its normal position for a while so that it would continue beating.
Dr. Dan Williams, a colored surgeon of Chicago, is credited with performing one of the few operations on the heart.

Athletic Outlook And Schedule, Williston.
Wilmington, M. C.—Williston In dustrial Dish is learning to be the center of athletic interest in this city. Already has football played an important role in the school and basketball with the present, promising prospects Williston will have a basketball team next year equal to any in the state and if any reader doubts that asser-
ment is correct, he will play for basketball and football games. Interest- here is now turning to baseball, with the generous support of Principal I. C. Virgo, who welcomes athletics as an indispensable program which interest he further, programs his willingness to thoroughly equip the team. Prof. W. R. Collins, manager of baseball for the school, has worked hard in the following tentative schedule:
March 30th, Burgan-Normal Institute, in Wilmington; April 2nd, 3rd and 4th, Fayetteville State Normal, April 11th and 12th, Wilson High School, in Wilmington; April 26th, 26th and 27th, Fayetteville State Normal, in Fayetteville; April 28th, Smithfield Training School, in Smithfield; May 5th and 6th, Wilson 11th and 12th, May 10th, 11th and 12th, May 18th, Wilmington; May 18th, Burgan Normal Institute, in Burgan; May 24th, 25th and 26th, Mary Potter School, in Oxford; May 30th, open. Expect the co-operation of all Wilmington for the successful-administration of this schedule.
WILLISTON IS HAS PROMISING OUTLOOK
Milton has a likely squad of
defenders, and many of
display signs of becoming "hunt
leaguers." Every position has at
least three candidates, and in many
cases it's to toss up for the prospective
leaguers who shall land the coveted
berth.
The receiving end of the battery
will be take care of by Nixon, McIntire,
Swindell and Jenkins. Their two southpaw around men, Davis and
Brown, will be the season closes of
of several seasons, have plenty of
"stuff" on the ball besides the cover.
Jenkins, is the ace of the pitching
staff, and is expected to perform wont-
her, the season closes, Starkey,
another, the season closes, Jenkins' closest rival, and is expected to blossom out in full splendor ere
long. First-base is indisputably the
set property of Byrd, who is with-
holding the team to be seen anywhere in the State.
Nelson, Elliott and Wm. Hicks are
candidates for second, short will be
able, represented by Tefailles and Joe
Stewart, the custody of Stewart, who doesn't
come or wickedly they him.
In the outfield the most promising candidates are G. Fulton, Owens in field, Jade McKinnes and Jenkins in field, D. Fielder in field, and F. Davis in the rightfield. For a utility man, capable of filling an infield position, we again rely on Byrd, whose position on first, while he is eligible, may, be filled by Swindell or Elliott. The general prospects are good and Coaches Blackburn, and Willett agree with me, that their opponents, must be strong and trained if they expect to. So far the workouts have been rather light and somewhat irregular, due to the unsettled wind, but beginning this week the old grind will start and only the old heart are have a very heavy push through. We have a heavy catch, the games to be played away from home, the utmost entrapment,皮 and gameness is going to be demanded of members of the team. We are as a result of the heavy support of a baseball love of our home games and have our projections thing will be done for their comfort and enjoyment and the satisfaction of their desire to see real baseball, played by trained and equipped players.
Be there and hear that welcome

Senegalese, French Boxing Federation Rules, Did Not Lose Title to McTiguel
Crusader News Service
Dublin, March—The prospect of an early engagement between Carpenter and Siki is being discussed, by promoters and principals, and considerable headway is said to have been made.
The question of a purse is said to have been settled. If all the arrangements are completed, the match will be held within a few months in a football quoiossure.
Do Carpenter and Siki agree that they can hold their eagerly awaited return bout in Ireland if sufficient financial inducement is forthcoming.
Paris, March—No world's championship was involved in the Ski-McTigue fight at Dublin last Saturday night, according to Albert Boudariat, a boarding school in Dublin being Federation, in a statement to LAuto. In the first place, the official said, the rules require that the adversary of a champion must challenge for the first time. Secondly, the referee must be appointed by the International Boxing Union. This condition was also unfulfilled. Boudariat concluded that Ski may have been beaten by McTigue, but that he cannot lose his title of light-heavyweight-champion because the fight was not for the title. London, March—The boxing experts of Sporting Life and the Sportsman, say Battleing Ski's title of light-heavyweight champion of the world was not affected by Saturday night's Dublin, because Ski did not weigh in.
Spotting Life asserts the contract did not specify that Ski must weigh m—and that he fought at catch it, and consequently still holds his title, but he simply englishly neither combatant got on the scales before the battle.
Paris, March—Inside of being cheered by the defeat of Battling Ski in Dublin, and Ski's loss of his titles to Mike McTigue, Georges Carpenter is rather inclined to lament the decision because he doesn't think McTigue rejoices.
"The suppose," said Carpenter to a representative of Le Journal, "that I should be elated by the decision. But I am not. As a sportsman I am unhappy with the L-Auto, the sports paper, says the officials of the bout obviously robbed Ski.

The principles of inter-racial good will and co-operation were presented by Rev. H. T. S. Johnson before the annual meeting of the Oklahoma Association of colored teachers. The message was well received. Dr. Johnson writes: "We are making encouraging headway in getting the Negro teachers committed to inter-racial co-operation. The future will be to get correspondent interest on the part of the white teachers; for the idea will not fully prevail 'till the childhood and youth of both races are trained to that end.'
The South Georgia Conference of the Woman's Missionary Society, M.E. Church, South, at its recent annual meeting in Columbus went on record as opposing mob violence in every form; and under all circumstances, called upon those in authority to do everything possible to put it on and pledged themselves to support a administration of justice. The failure the Dyer anti-lynching bill, said the Conference, is a challenge to every State and to all good citizens to a stop to lynching and mob violence.
