COURT Tobias, Garcia and Thompson Defendants With Former Chief on Charges of Using Mails to Defraud Public. New York, May 24. After repeated postponements lasting nearly a year, the case of the federal government against Marcus Garvey, Provisional President of Africa and head of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, for alleged use of the mails to defraud finally came to a hearing before General Counsel in Mack in the Federal court on Friday, May 18. Arrested with Garvey are Elie Garcia, cx-Auditor General of the U. N. I. A.; George W. Tobias, Treasurer, and Orlando Thompson, Secretary-General. Appearing for Garvey are Attorneys C. W. Dougall, formerly Assistant District Attorney, and Vernal Williams. Garcia is defended by Lincoln Johnson, Tobias by Atty. J. Matthews; and Thompson by Atty. W. Iley. The prosecutor is Asst. District Attorney. Considerable trouble was experienced in the impanelling of the jury. The right of challenge was freely exercised on both sides. After a delay that consumed almost the whole day the jurors were selected: Wm. J. Kerr, C, Delana Knap, Samuel J. Moorehead, Martin Kregan, George B. McCellan, Charles J. Aansen, J. Dankus, George M. McKenzie, McKenzie M. McKenzie, Edwin J. Scott, Lansing A. Wood. All are white. CASE OUTLINED Assistant District Attorney Mattucks opened with an outline of the case in which he emphasized that the government was not concerned "with any fool's dream however foolish it may be for the social advancement of one, one, he insisted, was more willing to assist in getting the rights of any oppressed portion of the population than he. But that, he said was not the question in this case... The question to be dealt with he said, was alleged manipulation of the million or more dollars that passed into the Black Star the. he said, he insisted, he had never freumely obtained and that Garvey and the other defendants had used the Negro World for collecting money. The duty of the jury, he said was to find out whether a large number of poor persons, were victimized. WITNESSES TESTIMONY The court room was crowded. the trail promises to be a long one from the array of witnesses on both sides. Financial methods used by Marcus Garvey, self-styled president of the African republic, "willing funds for starting the Black Star Steamship and describing her sequestration in the trial. Richard E. Warner, formerly executive secretary of the Black Star Line, declared he was elected to his office at the salary of $25 a company had been incorporated Garvey took the first issue of stock to Virginia to sell it. He declared that Garvey's "cabinet" members refused to let him examine the books of the stock and that as far as he knew none of the money realized from the sale of stock was applied to the obligations of the steamship line. Edgar Gray, former private secretary to Garvey, testified the stock had been sold through the mails by the use of highly-colored papers and that Garvey had made meetings in sections of the country and was persuaded to accept money for stock. Gray also declared the first stock book of the company disappeared. He said he received a salary of $14 a week for holding a number of high sounding offices with Garvey. He was questioned regarding the purchase of the steamship Yarmouth by Garvey as the nucleus of the Black Star fleet, but admitted he knew little of the details. William Allison Hewlett, attorney at law has opened offices at 702 Church street, corner Princess Anne avenue. Mr. Hewlett is one of the oldest colored-practiceeers in the State. He formerly practiced in Petersburg and quit his practice there to enter the government service at the beginning of the World War.

CONFERENCE HELD IN WASHINGTON Endorses Dr. Scott's Telegram to Chairman Gary Urging Using of Colored Labor. Washington, D. C.—The Philadelphia-Baltimore Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, held in Baltimore, Bishop J. S. Caldwell, holding sessions here in Washington in the John Wesley A. M. E. Z. Church, today, Thursday, May 17th, passed resolutions endorsing the sentiment expressed in a telegram reverent of the secretary-treasurer of the Howard University, to Hon. E. H. Gary, chairman of the board of directors of the United States Steel Corporation, in which Dr. Scott requested that he utilize colored Americans as the primary source of which Mr. Gary recently complained, instead of seeking alien immigration. Prior to the passage of the resolution by the Conference, Dr. Scott, who had been invited by Bishop Caldwell to address the Conference, spoke at length with reference to the whole matter of the industrial situation in America as it affects the Negro, calling especial attention to the telegram he recently sent to chairman Gary, requesting him to utilize colored materials for the shortage in American industries rather than look to there are in America a large group of colored citizens who are sympathetic with American institutions and who are ready and willing to help develop her resources. He also called attention to the reply he had sent to Mr. John Gibbs, secretary-treasurer of the National Association, in reply to the communication from Mr. Gibbs protesting against the telegram which Dr. Scott had sent Mr. Gaiv. In his letter to Mr. Gibbs, Dr. Scott said, "I very definitely feel that it is the duty of colored people wherever opportunity offers to leave those sections where lynching and peonage are practiced upon them with impunity." He said that he knew quite definitely that Place was one of the counties in some of the northern sections, but that these difficulties are inconsequential when compared with the privileges of a free and untrammed citizenship, along with better housing, better educational opportunities for children, better wages, and better NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, MAY 26, 1923.

Daughters of Confederacy Honor Prof. G. W. Carver Send Tuskegee Wizard of Science Written Resolution Expressing Appreciation of His Efforts in the South. Atlanta, Ga.-Prof. George W. Carver, of Tuskegee, the wizard of science, who was recently, made a Fellow in the Royal Society of Great Britain in recognition of his scientific researches in the vegetable kingdom and his wonderful manipulating of the Georgia and Alabama clay so as to give to the world heretofore undreamed of discoveries in food and chemical products, a high honor in the form of a written resolution from the Daughters of the Confederacy, Georgia Division, Atlanta Chapter, expressing the appreciation of its members of Prof. Carver and his efforts to exhibit the products and possible industries of the South. The resolution-reads as follows: "At a meeting of the Atlanta Chapter, United Daughters of the Confederacy, a resolution was proposed and carried that the Atlanta Chapter would present a vision of their interest and appreciation of you in your efforts to exhibit the products and possible industries of our South, and the Chapter wishes you God-Speed in any endeavor looking to the development of any project in which we are naturally interested. "The chapter members intend and wish very much to inspect your exhibit at an early date." Writing in the Atlanta Journal of Prof. Carver and his exhibition and lectures on the Cecil Hotel Roof Garden recently, on the various aspects of the greenhouse, the sweet potato and the peanut, O. B. Keller spoke of him in the following manner: "Up on the roof garden of the Cacil Hotel for three days—Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday—a dusky uncrowned king of science is lecturing each afternoon at 8:30 o'clock—Professor George W. Carver, Negro scientist and chemist of Tuskegee Institute; and not exactly uncrowned at that, for after his name, if he chooses (though he never chooses) he can write the letters S, S, meaning the letters of the Royal Society of Great Britain; an honor that has come to few Americans—and Dr. Carver laughs whimsically today as he assures you he never has found out who proposed him for that fellowship. Prosically, and with our American fondness for statistics, Dr. Carver, usually is introduced in newspaper stories as the man who has developed 165 products from peanuts; 117 products from sweet potatoes; 85 from pecans; and 11 from apples, oranges, and straws; from Georgia clays—the red old hills turned by the touch of a modern magician into the superb pigmentation that was known to Egypt of old, and supposedly reverted to the lost arts of the world. But I would rather present Dr. Carver, scientist, as a simple, religious, God-honoring man of the south, with the genius of research and the soul that inspires him to say of the humble sweet potato that it isn't a sweet potato at all, but a morning-glory—and that's not mere poesy, but a scientific fact. IS REMARKABLE MAN. Dr. Carver was laying out part of his prodigious assortment of exhibits in the roof garden of the Cecil Tuesday morning, prepara- (Continued on Page Five) JUDGE DEY TO SPEAK AT S.

CROWD AT FOOD SHOW; SATURDAY THE BIG NIGHT Thousands Attend the Second Annual Event During the Week; Grocery Bargains Snapped Up by Housewives. VALUABLE PRIZES TO BE AWARDED AT THE CLOSE That the annual Food Show and Better Homes Demonstration inaugurated by the NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE last year as a community enterprise is increasing in popular favor with the citizens of Norfolk and vicinity is unmistakably evidenced by the crowds attending each night during this week, which marks the holding of the second event of its kind. The enterprise has been a success from the start. Last year the attendance was estimated at 5,000 and indications are that the number will be exceeded this week. The Norfolk auditorium, 731 Church street, where the affair is being held is pleasingly decorated with flags, buntings and varied display advertising added to which is a beautiful electric display. The tastefully arranged and decorated. The demonstrators have had special instructions concerning the products, they demonstrate, and their lectures have a high educational value. The general good nature of the demonstrators in explaining the unobserved points about the products in their care adds greatly to the popularity of the show. EDUCATIONAL AND ENTERTAINING The management realized, however, that purely educational events without an entertaining aspect are not generally popular, so the managers have been taken to combine these features—instruction and entertainment. Next in importance to the lectures and inspection of the exhibits and enjoyment of the free tidbits is the prevalence of grocery bargains. Several housewives and family heads have picked up bargains for foodstuffs at the show, were at wrist sense worth while. Many secured full baskets of assorted edibles for a few cents. Everything on sale at the show is offered at greatly reduced prices. A cut rate prevails on the stoves, furniture, electrical fixtures, drugs as well as the groceries. It is an admirably good natured car exhibition. Everyone seeming to imbibe the spirit of good will which increases the importance of the show as a community asset. BIG ADVERTISING POSSIBILITIES If there were not a dollar's worth of goods sold at a single booth the distributor would then gain measurably as the price is district personal goods will be issued for the exhibition that is very potent, indeed. Especially is this true where the demonstrator becomes unusually popular with the crowd. Saturday night is the last night and will, of course, be the banner night, when the goods will be practically dumped out at give away events, be the event of last year will do a large part of their Saturday evening marketing at the food show.

JUDGE HARRISON SPEAKS ON "SELF" Gives Sound and Practical Advice For Self and Racial Betterment For Our People. A man is, worth from his shoulders down no more than he can lift, but from his shoulders up, no man can measure his worth, for it is from that point he is like the Divinity. Judge William H. Harvey of Chicago, Ill, told his audience in effect at the First Baptist Church Friday night, in one of the sanest and most eloquent addresses ever heard in this city. Judge Harrison announced no special subject, but the main that of his alk was self measurement, of his original high value upon one's own ability. "We are living in the most crucial age, most trying age, never was a time in creation when men were more selfish or showed such utter disregard for the rights of each other than of wars, but amid all this, have unshaken faith in God Have patience and endurance, Trials don't kill a people, they make them strong. The sharpening of steel against the brick hardens the steel, but the hardened steel is not the brick of discrimination and race prejudices against which the race is continually rubbed will eventually wear out and the race will be the stronger for having been whetted against it. Think of industry as we build a race. Work and save we probs made sure we will be saved enough. Spend for the things that count, put something in the bank for a rainy day. Have confidence in one's ability to do things. Confidence with skill of hands to do whatever man's hand can do. Strive on, and we will make the highest contribution to world's civilization. Right must prevail and evil must fail; were some of the things that the speaker told his audience.

J. E BRIGGS Instructor of Theology and the English Bible, Lynchburg Seminary and College, Lynchburg, Va. PROPHET- ISA. 6: 1-18. GOLDEN TEXT-Here am 1; send me. Isa. 6: 8. 1. The Vision of The Isiah. Isa. 6: 1-4. Where Isiah had a vision-perhaps dream-so vivid that he seemed to be in the very presence of God, or else what he he've describes was a purely spiritual experience which could be expressed to others in no other way than as a vision "It is a worshipper's thoughts when he draws near to God. The vision is but the service in he here describes was a purely spiritual experience which could be expressed to others in no other way than us a vision "It is a worshipper's thoughts when he draws near to God. The vision is in the service in the temple transfigured. The prophet fell into a trance while beholding the service and musing on its meaning. Suddenly the house and service and the ministers became transfigured; the walls went apart, and the roof lifted itself up until it seemed the high dome of God's palace on high under which he stood, and the king throne receiving the adoration of all holy beings." (A. B. Davidson.) In the year that Uziziah, the king of Judah died, Isaiah saw the vision of God's holiness and sapremacy. The Lord was sitting on a throne high and lifted up. The six winged angels. The three wings of wings symbolized reverence, humility, and obedient service cried one to another and said, Holly, holy, holy is Jehovah of the whole earth is full of his glory." The Thresholds shook at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke. V. 4. "In a very deep and true sense it is what a man sees that either makes or unmakes him. The effect of vision upon character and service is transforming. It elevates or debases, according to its nature, a man grovels or soars, whether he walks way with the worm or walks upon hiltops, whether he remains in the realm of animalism or rises into the spiritual, and lives in the high places of the sons of God, is determined by his seeing. The men who shape history and direct destinies of nations are the men who have eyes." Hastings Gt. Texts. 2. The Vision Dismays and Overcomes Isaiah. Isa. 6: 5-7. "We see ourselves when we see God. Once flash on a heart the thought of God's holiness and, like an electric searchlight, it discloses flaws which pass unnoticed in dimmer light. The easy-going Christianity, which is the apology for religion with so many of us, has no clear vision of God. If we felt, "I am unean and undone," it would be "your knowledge of God is faith," and he is rather one heard of from the lips of others than realized in your own experience."-Maclaren. Seeing God, even in a vision revealed to Isaiah his undone condition. He became aware of his having unclean lips and dwelling among a people who was sinful. "The outshining purity of God brought home to Isaiah's consciousness a sense of his own impurity. One of the seraphine took a live coal from of the altar, touched the prophet's lips, and his iniquity was taken away and his sin was forgiven. General Foch, whom all the world delights to honor, said in Paris shortly after the ending of the World's War: "When in a historic moment a vision is given to a man, and when in consequence the that this vision has determined movements of tremendous importance foundable war, I believe that this vision-and think I had it at the Marmara in the Yser and on March 26th comes from a providential Power in the hand of which one is the instrument, and I believe that the victorious decision was sent from on high, by a will superior and divine." 3.

G. 8. 8. How do we hear the diving call? It is probably the call it first appears from below, the cry of human need. There is a cry which comes swelling up from sick-beds, from men in doubt, from men struggling with deadly temptations, from lads adrift, from children left upon the world, from girls driven by poverty tq, the streete, from heathen lands, from Africa, from India, from China-Whom wilt thou send, and who will come to "I have staught" Gt. Texte. I have I staught Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I. Here am I; send me. V. 6. "He pleaded with his people woeed them, entrained them to turn to the Lord and serve him; painting in roseate hues the blessedness and security of a godly nation. He sought on office, he was not partisan, he knew no political sect, and he knew no courtier—like airs or favorite manners. He was a voice and a power above parties or politics; he understood nothing of expediency or compromise he stood for naked truth, and smeared severity of righteousness. He is a tried and sure rock of permanent prosperity. In the reigns of Uziziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, he stood as an incarnate conscience, testifying for God and for his covenant of eternal truth. on his prelonged battle with every form of evil cannot be adequately imagined. He was a polished and high-bred gentleman, versed in various learning, and familiar with the affairs of the state. He was a man of keen susceptibility, quick to feel a wrong on so subtle under pressure, difficult to broach, but never under opposition nor wavered in persecution. $ ^{15} $ Rev. W. I. Townsnd, D. D. BRNGGOGRAMS The pure in heart shall see God. Jesus. The idealists (those who see visions) are the great achievers of life. The more of God's holiness we know the more sinful we realize ourselves to be. The seeing of human need plus the ability and inclination to relieve that need constitute a call to service. Human can work for God effectively until his iniquity is taken away and his sin is forgiven. FIRST BAPTIST The pastor filled an engagement in Phila, last Sunday. In his absence, Rev. F. W. Jacobs delivered an inspiring message in the morning service from the subject, The Christian Race," text Heb. 11 M. In his forwent appeal to the large and remain in the greatest of all races until death resulted in two additions to the church. During this service the sacred rite of Baptism was administered to seven candidates. The S. S. and B. Y. I. were largely attended. In the Council held at 3:30 P. M., the hand of fellowship was given to nineteen new members. In the evening service Rev. Jacobs delivered a wonderful sermon from the subject "Prayer," text Luke 8: 1.

C. to attend the Elks' Convention held in that city May 16, 17, and 18. The train over the Norfolk and Western railway, Roanoke, and Winston-Salem in Winston-Salem, was met by the N. C. Elks with a band of 30 pieces. As the train stopped the band, struck up, "Hail, Hail, The Gang's All Here." A line was formed, headed by the Grand Exalted Ruler, Hon. J. Finley Wilson, who had come from Roanoke on the special, and marched to the courthouse, where the Election committee in business session, Pres. B. W. Howard, in the chair, the band outside playing, "We Are Here Because We Are here," and the Hard was in charge of the city. At the close of the annual address of Pres. Howard, which was a gem, Rev. W. G. Avant, Grand Chaplain of the National Grand Lodge, in a most pleasing address, Finley Wilson, who delivered a masterful address on the progress of the order. His effort was a masterpiece, full of wisdom and information, and was delivered with telling effect, being applauded to the echo at close of almost every sentence. And as the Grand Exalted Ruler took his seat, he received notice in North Carolina, lasting more than fifteen minutes. He was compelled to rise and remain standing for some minutes, bowing to the cheering Elks. At the request of Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson and several others, who happened to know him, P. E., R. W. B. F. Crownell, of Roanoke, an old North Carolina boy, was presented to the convention, and captivated the house with his eloquence. His speech was a burning message of good fellowship and brotherly love, from old Virginia, and from the Carolinas and long are to be remembered as a literary treat. In closing, amid tremulous applause, he called up his little pal, known as "The Little Captain," in Newark last August, and presented him, as Roanoke's favorite son, and a candidate for Grand Trustee, at the Chicago meeting in August of this year. As "Big Bill," and the "Little Captain" took their seats, and order was restored, two motions prefaced. One that Caroline Grant, of Roanoke, filmed Wilson for re-election at Chicago, and that North Carolina also support C. Tiffany Toliver, of Roanoke, for Grand Trustee. Blue Ridge Lodge, 281, qf Roanoke, feels proud of this action on the part of the Old North State, because it is felt that with North Carolina instructed for Toliver, the Lifetime Man with Big Ideas, he is the hero of the Twin Falls-wadeawke Elks in the country, together with endorsement of his own state, as well as the many other ledges all ever the country, who have already pledged their support, that he will win out in a walk. Winston-Salem, is some city, an Roanoke shall never forget the Twin City, and will with open arms the Antered Herd from the Old North State any time they come to Old Virginia. Meet us in Chicago. Boost C. Tiffany Toliver, of Roanoke, for Grand Trustee.

Easiest Credit Terms in Norfolk Exchange Furniture Store 626 Church St.-Bet Bute & Queen Last Minute Hits NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE'S NEW DUPLEX PRESS 5 A PURPOSE REALIZED With this issue we greet our readers for the first time printed in metropolitan style on the new Duplex Web Perfecting Press, which has just been installed in order that we may still more effectively serve our growing number of readers and advertisers. For some time past we have given a great deal of thought toward making the Journal and Guide a larger and better medium for the expression of the growth and progressiveness of our territory. It was found by careful study that with our equipment for printing the paper, the high cost of production in every way would make an effort of this kind prohibitive, and that the first thing toward building a larger and better paper would be the scoring of a press that would offset the added expenses such improvements would create with the old equipment. With this in view, we have purchased and installed a Duplex Web Perfecting Press, a picture of which appears above WHAT THE NEW PRESS DOES This press manufactured by the Duplex Printing Press Company of Battle Creek, Mich., is absolutely the last word in printing press equipment for newspapers in average size cities, and is a marvel of precision with its many special features for production and adjustment. I. E. Hurlbut, erector and representative was here twelve days superintending the installation. The press prints two, four, six and eight pages direct from the roll at a speed of 5,500 papers an hour, all in one operation, delivering the papers folded, ready for the mails at the completion of its performance. This is in direct contrast to the capacity of our former cylinder press which printed two or four pages at a time at a speed of 1250 an hour. NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE NAL AND GUIDE'S NE THE DUP Sheets of paper instead of the roll were used in the former method, and this meant that the paper had to be hand fed through the press, sheet by sheet, twice, in order that it would be printed on both sides. Then the sheet had to be carried to a hand-fed folder, where again, sheet by sheet they were folded for the delivery. It can be readily seen that in the printing of the paper now, much labor and time will be saved. The new press allows a great deal more time for type-setting on our Lynotype machines, without causing a delay in getting the paper in the hands of the people. The big press, which weighs 24,000 pounds sets upon a concrete foundation three feet and six inches deep, built by Mr. H. Mayo, cement contractor, under the supervision of architect H. N. Johnson. HOW THE PAPER IS PRODUCED The Duplex Webb Perfecting is a marvel of mechanical skill, and the many functions it performs in one operation are interesting to watch. The huge roll of paper will be noticed at the extreme left of the above picture. If unrolled this paper would reach a distance of about five miles. The paper is threaded over the web across the bottom of the press to the right, where it passes over the bottom bed where the type forms for four pages of the paper first come in contact with the moving paper. Going to the extreme left of the press the paper is carried by rollers to the top, where it starts again to the right. In the picture the four pages printed on one side on the bottom form can be seen. The paper now passes over the upper bed of forms, and the reverse four pages are printed. The printing is now done, but the press has not completed its work. Still travelling to the right the paper passes over a cutter which separates each in- Y.26 dividual newspaper, and traveling on it is gathered and enters the folder, which working with almost human intelligence it folds, cuts and trims the paper and passes out the finished product in the chute to the extreme left ready for delivery. Four and six page papers are printed in the same manner. The serrated edge, found either at the top or to the sides of a newspaper are a sure sign that it has been printen an a press of this nature, and these are found only ed on a press of this nature, and these are found only country. MORE VALUABLE MEDIUM OF NEWS With this new equipment every effort will be made to increase the value of the paper as your medium for securing the important happenings of news interest of the day, both of local and general interest. POLICY TO SERVE THE PEOPLE The policy of this paper will continue to remain the same as it has been in the past. It will endeavor at all times to stand, regardless of personal interests, for those things which it believes are for the advancement and betterment of the race and the territory we serve. CO-OPERATION IS WANTED Like everything of a civic nature, we need the co-operation of the people of the community. This paper is your means of expression in all matters of public interest, and we desire to once more remind you that it is here for the purpose of serving in any sense that will build for the progress of the community, and its columns are always open to those with constructive and progressive ideas and ideals Norfolk Journal and Guide Bailey's Park NORTH TITUSTOWN ON BOULEVARD Young Men and Women of St. Joseph's Catholic Church Win New Laurels. On Thursday evening "Coaina" or The Rose of the Algonquins, an Indian drama in five acts was presented at the Attucks Theatre before a large and enthuastic audience, by a company of twenty young people of St. Joseph's Catholic Church. The vehicle chosen to display the histronic ability of the performers was well chosen, being of a semi-religious nature and was in keeping with the aims and object for which the entertainment was given. The title role of "Coaina" was splendidly portrayed by Mrs. Louise Elliott, who gave to the part all the sanctity and Christian devotion of the Indian Maiden, and carried the audience with her in her humiliation and her final triumph. Mr. Wm. Garland, as Father Etienne, the mission priest, was very impressive as the spiritual adviser of the settlement. Mrs. Genevia Baker, as "Alfontein," the scheming and intriguing aunt and mother, realized all that the part called for and her efforts were well received, as evidenced by the hearty response of the audience at the ruthness and caustic remarks from her sharp tongue. Mr. C. Johnson, as the Indian Chief in love with Coaina was at his best and received the plaudits of the audience for the dignified and artistic manner in which he interpreted the part. The entire supporting cast was splendid and each and every one showed the efforts of the splendid training they had received at the hands of Mrs. Lilla A. Reid. Every one of the young people throw themselves into the several parts which was assigned them with vim and spirit, and the result was a smooth and finished performance. The musical numbers and incidentals were under the direction of Miss Minnie Riggins and were exceptionally well rendered. The orchestra of Messrs. Thomas and Baily furnished the music for the occasion. Father Wa-ren, of St. Joseph's Church, made a curtain talk and explained the object and aims of the undertaking of the young people, stating that they were not actors nor actresses, but simply trying to furnish an evening's entertainment to raise funds to better the condition of the colored children in the community. Taken as a whole, it was an evening of pleasure and profit to all who were present. The young people taking part and the character parts are as follows: Dramatic Personnel: Father Etienne, Missionary, Mr. Wm. Garland; Tairhee, Chief of the Algonquins, Mr. C. Johnson; Ad-heck, Chief of the Iroquois, Mr. S. Parham; Ma-kee, Old Pagan Indian, Mr. D. Smith; Coaina, the Indian Rose, Mrs. Louise Elliott; Alkontinon, her Aunt, Mrs. Genevia Baker; Winona, her Cousin, Miss Lucinda Langley. Indian Maidens: Rama, Miss Flossie Robinson; Comalao, Mrs. Silvia Jergens; Zamilda, Miss Beatrice Wright. Iroquoia Braves: Messrs. Frederick and Elmer Riddick, Cornelius Jackson, Clarence Howard, Geo. Newy, James Bell and Guy Parham. Algonquin Women: Misses Lucinda Newy, Lucinda Herring, Bessie Mayfield, and Maggie Gains.

Not in a long time have we the ladies of Norfolk had such an opportunity as will be theirs this coming Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday nights, at 8:00 at Booker Washington High School. Through the generosity of the Royal Baking Powder Company, New York, two members of their Educational Department, Mrs. Alice Patton Allen and Miss Anna L. Boyd, will be seen in three distinctly different cooking demonstration programs. No adequate idea of just wait to expect can be conveyed through the two words—Cooking Demonstrations. Suffice to say, nothing exactly like them has ever been given in Norfolk before. From the time that these experts begin mixing their first recipe to the time the audience eats the last dainty morsel from the hands of these wonderworkers, there is something to grip the attention of the ladies. It will be of interest to know that Mrs. Allen and Miss Boyd are the only colored representatives in the Educational Department of this great company. Both these ladies are experts in their line and will demonstrate not only the latest recipes for the most delicious cakes, wonderful fluffy frostings and interesting new breads, but the most attractive ways of serving these dainty dishes at club luncheons or parties. If you are planning to entertain at all this season you can't afford to miss these cooking demonstrations. MR. ALLEN ON: "A WOMAN'S POWER" Do you know how to judge a man by the shape of his neck?

Mr. Allen's subject for Thursday will be, "Three Things that Men Like Most in Women." The subject for Friday evening, "Women with Whom a Woman Must Deal." These talks ocure fifteen minutes before the regular cooking demonstration. Admission is free to both Mr. Allen's talks and the cooking demonstrations. motion later.

Miss Ellis and Mrs. Pryor Big Stars in Play Full of Human Interest. "The Unloved Wife" the attraction all this week at the Attucks, is indeed an intensely interesting drama, filled with love, pathos, and enough humor to give it an even balance. It is a story true to eviden- tary interest and benefit to women, is no less impressive to the masculine sex. "The Unloved Wife" has been staged in Norfolk before—formerly by white talent—now by race talent and, critics say, it is an empowering tale. "The Unloved Wife," played by a cast other than Miss Ellis, Mr. Pryor and their supporters, would probably not have been near so impressive, for these young master race artists rendered a most with interest of its lines, such as only talented and devoted artists can do. Filling the role of the "unloved wife" afforded Miss Ellis wonderful opportunity for a portrayal of her dramatic powers and not a single opportunity did she lose in her dramaticization and not in her letterization of her role. She shined and enraptured her audience with her wonderful personality, technique and perfect grasp of her subject. H. L. Pryor as "her husband" gave her preeminent support in the "Ringettte Hubbard Brown," the "bargain" woman she showed a great deal more than ordinary ability and skill. Few character artists have been seen in these parts who have shown a more thorough acquaintance with and given a clearer interpretation of her life. In "Ruth Carr, Miss Bessie Allies, and Mr. Monte Hawley, members of the cast, all deserve the heartiest commendation.

His hair was the king, who has been in Norfolk for 15 years, one of the first persons who started in the hair dressing work, having been a barber for years in first class colored and white shirts it was an easy matter for him to grasp the idea of treating the hair.

Mason, as superintendent of city schools meets with the general approval of Norfolk citizens. Having been in the system a number of years, he has the advantage of knowing our present needs first-hand, and judging from his achievements during the past year as acting superintendent, he will put forth his best endeavors to give Norfolk the best schools possible. Let us hope that nothing will come of the threats against Tuskegee Institute and Dr. Moton, as indicated in dispatches, because of the determination of President Harding that the Hospital for Former Service Negro Soldiers at Tuskegee Institute, shall be officered by Afro-Americans. The report does not read pleasantly that "the buildings and grounds are being guarded night and day and that a double guard has been thrown around the residence of Dr. Moton." Florida Whipped Into Line When a man does justice because he has been shown the error of his way: mankind generally applaud him; when he does justice because constrained by law or public opinion to do so, he usually feels like "a dog in the face," as the saying is. Florida is much in that position. After long and tedious weeks of investigation, debating and halting between extremes, with the doubt always uppermost that the reform would be defeated, the Florida legislature has adopted the act to abolish the convict lease system and the lash in the penal system of the State. The legislature was simply whipped into doing justice by public opinion and merciless exposure of the utter brutality of the system. The Nation, the strongest and most influential weekly magazine in the country, edited by the grandson of a daughter of William Lloyd Garrison, says: "The blindness of our countrymen. They are up in arms over the execution of a Russian priest, and yet they tolerate year in and year out the doing to death throughout the South of hundreds of innocent men sentenced to the chain gang on crumped up excuses by crooked sheriffs and penal judges in order that contractors may make money. What pharisaism, what Anglo-Saxon hypocrisy!" The disclosures and legislation for redress in the Florida penal system and practices should bring about systematic investigation if the penal system and practices in all of the Southern States, where corrupt sheriffs and judges work together for their profit with the brutal contractors of convict labor. But will it? When a man does justice because he has been shown the error of his way: manking generally applaud him; when he does justice because constrained by law or public opinion to do so, he usually feels like "a dog in the face," as the saying is. Florida is much in that position. After long and tedious weeks of investigation, debating and halting between extremes, with the doubt always uppermost that the reform would be defended, the Florida legislature has adopted the act to abolish the convict lease system and the lash in the penal system of the State. The legislature was simply whipped into doing justice by public opinion and merciless exposure of the utter brutality of the system. The Nation, the strongest and most influential weekly magazine in the country, edited by the grandson of a daughter of William Lloyd Garrison, says: "The blindness of our countrymen. They are up in arms over the execution of a Russian priest, and yet they tolerate year in and year out the doing to death throughout the South of hundreds of innocent men sentenced to the chain gang on trumped up excuses by crooked sheriffs and venal judges in order that contractors may make money. What pharisaism, what Anglo-Saxon hypocrisy! The disclosures and legislation for redress in the Florida penal system and practices should bring about systematic investigation of the penal system and practices in all of the Southern States, where corrupt sheriffs and judges work together for their profit with the brutal contractors of convict labor. But will "Love Ye.One Another" There is a great deal of high thinking in certain quarters on orthodox religion and its adaptability to present day conditions, of life which the man in the street does not hear about and about which he does not concern himself a great deal, simply because he does not do much thinking for himself and does not sit at the feet of others and learn of them. He thinks he is a Christian, without forming himself about Christian doctrines it all, and, as he is ignorant of those doctrines, sets it go at that. This condition has grown There is a great deal of high thinking in certain quarters on orthodox religion and its adaptability to present day conditions of life which the man in the street does not hear about and about which he does not concern himself a great deal, simply because he does not do much thinking for himself and does not sit at the feet of others and learn of them. He thinks he is a Christian, without informing himself about Christian doctrines at all, and, as he is ignorant of those doctrines, lets it go at that. This condition has grown upon Christian people to such an extent as to become National in scope and to affect the welfare of Nations. The Jew, the Mohammedan and the Buddhist is supposed to know his religious obligations and to read his Book of Books regularly, and he usually strives to live up to the deocrines comprehended in his religion, but the Christian is not supposed to know anything of the kind, and he seldom knows anything by study of the faith, the doctrines, he professes and is supposed to exemplify in his daily living. When the average man reaches this condition the Nation does so as the aggregate of man. How much of Christian teachings, which have the force of commandments, do we live up to as individuals or as a Nation, in the following: "Ye be men and brethren; love ye one another;" "thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself;" "whatsoever ye would that men should do, to you do ye even so to them." These be fundamentals to which we are obligated but which we observe only when it serves our interests to do so, as individuals and as w Nation. Dr. John Haynes Holmes, the high light of the Community Church Movement, at the Renaissance Casino, to Radical Harlemites, in New York, recently speaking on "True Religion, the Negro's Hope," defined religion as embracing all members of the human family and entitled to equal treatment. He said he did not interest himself in "the Negro because he is a Negro, but because he is a man." The dreary fact, which mankind ignore, is that the average Christian does not have the Christian faith and practice the Chris- tian doctrines he professes and that he does not, therefore, live them in his relations with his fellows. The Nation is quite as much at fault, and, consequently, all fall short of "the high calling which is in Christ Jesus." The fault is not in the Christian philosophy, neither is the failure; it is in those who do not live up to the principles of the Christian philosophy, which Jesus formulated in "The Sermon on the Mount," (Matt. 5-7 chapters). The individual, the Nation, needs to square themselves with the Christian philosophy. Readjustment of Population The readjustment of Afro-American population, embodied in the migrant movement, grows more acutely significant as the movement progresses. Mr. Charles Satchell Morris, Jr., says that it "is creating awe and terror among the more sane and sober of the white race," who want to keep their labor but do not know how to go about doing so. But this viewpoint is not general. There be many Southern whites of light and leading who imagine that it will be better for all concerned when there has been a more general readjustment of Afro-American population, with a larger increase in alien white population to replace it. It is a fruitful question for discussion, but it will not affect in the least the migrant movement, which is regulated by a spiritual law that cannot be affected by augmentation or legislation. It will go the limit, and it would not have been begun but, for the ultimate good of those immediately concerned. A survey by the Federal Department of Agriculture shows that there has been a net movement from farms to towns and cities of 324,000 persons in the South Atlantic States in 1922. Dr. Algenon B. Jackson, director of the School of Public Health at Howard University, in combating the theory of those who would discourage migration, put forth by the Census Bureau, that the death rate is greater in the North than in the South of Afro-Americans, made a comparison from statistics of four States in the North and four in the South, and found that the mortality rates about balance each other. Dr. Jackson makes the following comment: "A race as well as an army in transit must leave death in its wake, for in every struggle for liberty thrust the world's history human flesh and blood have paid the toll to obtain that freedom which makes death a pleasure." In a thoughtful and upstanding article in the Memphis Commercial Appeal, Mr. Scott Bond, of Arkansas, one of the richest and most successful farmers we have, takes the position that the Afro-American people helped to make the South what it is industrially and should not leave it, because "in no other section of the country are the opportunities for commercial and financial success greater than in this part of our common country. Let us go to it with a will," concludes Mr. Bond, "and pieve by our steady progress that the Negro should not leave the land that he has helped to clear and make habitable." While the prophets disagree and dispute, the poor migrants, seeking for better chances to live and work, keep on a-moving. Briefs and Spices (BY S. J. C.) Why abolish the Electoral College? Can't the graduates make the presidential grade? The unusual thing about France's invasion and occupational exploit of the Ruhr is, its getting somebody's goat. These statisticians who deal with statistics affecting black folks prove that the "cake's all dough," without proving that cleverly kneaded dough makes extra fine cake. Housing experts report that the average man spends forty per cent of his income for rent. The greater portion of the balance, however, sad to say, goes for gas and 'blow outs'. Most of the folks who persist in constant reference to one's vices for example, couldn't see a virtue through a microscope. The largest pencil factory in the world is in the German city of Nuremberg. However, there is no connection between this and the German Monoply of marks. Notwithstanding, the Negro migration North continues 'Walt' Cohen, "The Dixie Cyclone" has been given another recess appointment. Ah shucks! Maybe its in spite of it. It is reported that some banks refused Mr. Ford's proposition of assisting the buying of his cars on the installment plan. Business ethics, we surmise, prevented the banks from explaining that they're overcrowded just now with mortgages-on homes. The money being used for that purpose. The winter suit is turning green, The Christmas tie is frayed, Installments on the light spring coat, Are just about half paid. The oxford's need a new half-sole, The tennis shoes are molded, Upon the desk the work still lays, In racks too full to hold it. The paper's full of sporting news, The pond is full of fishes, Imagine, please, a peaceful scene, With a sink brimful of dishes. On vacant lots the hall game's on; The sport shop's full of tackle, "Take leave at once," your spirit cries, "Out, where the chickens cacle." Spirit of The Press Bigotry in Art Circles From The American Hebrew Wherever the viper of bigry疹 raises its head it should be scotched. Sometimes it shows itself in unexpected places. The domain of the arts is usually free from that sort of pest. One of its unwritten laws establishes a camaraderie of the spirit that transcends color, religion and race. The American Committee for the art school at Fontainebleau recently refused a scholarship because she merely because she was indiscreet in the choice of her ancestors. She should have consulted the wishes of the committee and been born of parents acceptable to that discriminating body. The fact that some southern girls would not have enjoyed their trip across, with Miss Savage on the same boat, was alleged to be the determining consideration in her rejection. A Spanish Jew on the committee is said to have been its own artist. This verse only that a Spanish Jew on the committee was weak enough to lend his sanction "to ant overt act of prejudice. One should not generalize from it, however. Jews are not and never will be bigots. The bloody centuries have been unsparing teachers. An Incident at Tuskegee From Greenshore, (N. C.) Daily News. There is being completed at Tuskegee, Ala., a world-war veterans' hospital, at a cost of $2,000,000. The federal government, of course, pays for it. It is for Negro veterans, and is located at or near Tuskegee Institute, a Negro college and industrial-educational colony. White physicians were selected for a staff for the hospital, and announcement of the proposed personnel was made. In view of the fact that Negro physicians are available for the work and management of the hospital whose ability can in nowhere be questioned, the selection of a staff of white physicians is a difficult task by some individual or small group, a bureaucratic blunder in Washington, perhaps. A storm of protest from the educationally advanced, highly race-conscious Negroes of the whole country resulted. Whether this can properly be classed as mistake No. 2 may be debatable, but if so it was the mistake of a race, growing out of the blunder of persons in officialdom. It is not as if the Negroes of the country would be entirely satisfied with Negro appointments; no doubt the highest medical authorities would declare that the Negroes of the country were not finishing entirely capable medical and surgical skill, although of course the per centage of really able doctors in proportion to the number of Negro inhabitants is relatively small. The decision to employ white doctors was rescinded, but it is not always easy to undo a mistake. The rescinding of the order has precipitated a bad local situation, and Dr. R. R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee, being held responsible, numerous threats are reported to have been made on his life. Pressure had been brought to bear on Dr. Moton to withdraw his opposition, and naturally, since such action would have been followed by his repudiation and end of his life, Moton would have been considered necessary to surround Tuskegee with guards and put a double watch about Moton's home, the situation becoming so acute that he did not even answer the telephone; and the conditions continue, so far as has been learned here. "It is circumstances like this that explain the Negro migration to the north.

It is a favorable condition indeed for everybody in some of the sections where the body has done most damage. But the body must stay staying body; we湿肋 lures him, but not aft. It is his nature to resist such a force as mere economic law, rather than to yield to it to the extent of journeying from a climate that suits him to one of the knows, only when he has heard, and is not favorable. He must be a among st people he knows. If the principal of Tuskegee, a school doing a large work that has the full approval of the people of the south, a man of high ability, and high respect, is not safe in his home, the Negroes who hear of this incident will ask themselves, what man of black, brown or yellow skin can consider himself safe in such an environment, and seek help, with few exceptions, we think, advises Negroes that their best hope of progress lies in the south, and that the migration of laborers to the north is an uncertain proposition for the individual. That, in a general way is what is being told the Negroes of North h Carolina, at this commencement season, by speakers who go out to the schools from the A. and T. college. We offer different urging that they receive from mobs of southern white men, masked and unmasked. Jew, Catholic and white alien can fight back; so the brunt of this detestable attack has been borne by the helpless Negro. The Daily News has hitherto mentioned the case of the agent of the United States government in Chadbourn by masked men claiming to be Ku-Klux. No reason for the whipping has ever been assigned except the fact that the man was a Negro. Is not that reason enough to induce him to go north to live, even though he may prefer to stay in the south? Now this man is an intelligent slave farmer and scientific farm employed by the federal and state departments of agriculture to teach scientific farm to members of his own race. If his instructions were followed by all Negro farmers, the value of North Carolina farm products would be increased enormously; and the prosperity of the farm would be increasingly. His instructions were being followed by some Negro farmers in Columbus county, and they were—and are—getting results. The Daily News, therefore, unhesitatingly declares that this one Negro is worth more to the state of North Carolina than the combined value of the 40 white toughs who whipped him. To which element in the population will the thoughtful citizenship of the state be. It is utterly useless for the south to sit down and bewail the hard fate that is threatening to strip its fields of laborers.

JOHNSON Interracial Secretary for Oklahoma Brotherly Love and Conduct "Rejoice with those who rejoice; weep with those who weep."—Romans 12:15. If Paul, the author of the scripture quoted above were living now, he could hardly give advice that would better fit this day and generation. That which the world seems to lack more than anything else is sympathy on the part of man towards man. Selfishness stalks abroad in utter disregard of the claims of others. It is not more now than before, so it seems. All the churches are investing more money and lives in mercy and help today than ever before in the history of the world. The Methodist Episcopal church, alone, accepts an annual financial budget of eighteen and one-half million dollars. Yet because the newspapers every day bring to us so many horrifying accounts of man's inhumanity to man we repeat that, if Paul were living now, he could hardly find advice that would reach the worst greatest need. It is better than he said to the Christians at Rome: "Rejoice with those who rejoice; weep with those who ween." This means that we should be in such wholehearted sympathy with our fellowman that he cannot have occasion for joy or sorrow without our being correspondingly affected. What a blessed experience earthly living would be if, others would always share our joys and if the poorest, and most humble among us peed not sorrow alone! Why does Paul say, "Rejoice with those who are dead, and keep to themselves, to keep with those GIRL RESERVES SINGING CONTEST All persons attending the Girls Reserves Singing Contest to be held at the First Baptist Church Monday May 28th, at 8 P.

Because it is harder to sympathize with persons when joy is theirs, than it is to do when sorrow afflicts them. The most hard-hearted are touched by grief on the part of others, whereas, in prosperous moments they might experience emotions of empathy or envy. To illustrate: In Tulsa white people before the race riot envied the Negroes prosper, after that awiol holocaust gave those same Negroes shelter, because they could to take the sting out of their hearts. Among the thousands white people who sailed the wounds made by loot, arson and murder, were some who had aided and abetted it. In order to prevent much of the sorrow which affects the world Paul says, "Heil with those that rejoice." If you look for the underlying cause of all the wars of this old world, you will find it in the fact that man has failed to get pleasure out of the peace and prosperity of others. The disturbances that make for local unrest everywhere are traceable to the same source. If Germany, prior to 1914, had been able to rejoice with those who rejoice," there would have been a laborer. If capital and labor could see that their interest are so much in common that they should rejoice and sorrow together, the boycotts, lockouts, strikes, arson, bombing and murders of which they are the fruitful cause, would not be. If the white man and black man in this country could heed the counsel of the text, all race friction would cease and Old Glory, meriting its name, would indeed and in truth wave over the home of the brave. No one can afford to miss this entertainment. Admission 15 cents. FAKE LABOR AGENT SWINDLES LABORERS Pine Bluff, Ark., May 24—Fully 1,800 colored men from miles in every direction, gathered at Grady and vainly waited for a special train which they expected to take them to the big industrial centers of the north, according to a report received here from the postmaster at Grady. Postmaster Bittenger says that some of the disappointed men confided to him that well dressed and attired, noxious. Negro came to this section about four weeks ago and arranged with numbers of them to go to the north. He collected from $2 to $10 from
