With Auditorium and Stores, Will Be Named "Phyllis Wheatly Garden." When the new building now in course of erection at the southwest corner of Church and Queen streets is completed it will represent the largest church in the up-town business section since the erection of the Metropolitan Bank and Trust Company building, which occupies the northeast corner of the same intersection of streets. The structure will be mounted fourteen feet above and a magnificently appointed hall, fifty feet wide by one hundred and twenty-five feet deep. It will bear the name 'Phyllis Wheatley Garden', being named for the celebrated slave-girl poet, who was one of the first women to attain a grandary distinction, in this country. DISTINGUISHED NAMESAKE Phyllis Wheatley was born in Africa and was brought to America in 1761 and sold to John Wheatley, a minister in Boston, and a child she began to write poetry, and her verses were published in London under the title of "Poems on Various Subjects, Religious and Moral" in 1762.

It will be of versatile construction and as such useful for many civic and social purposes. It will be ready for occupancy between the 1st and 31st floor, according to promise of the building. Assistant Secretary of War and Other Military Officials Join in Tribute to Memory of Colonel Young. New York, New York; Washington, Cemetery, Washington, D. C. June 6, taps will sound over the remains of Colonel Charles Young, who reached the highest rank in the army and was held by a member of his race, when these remains will be intertwined with all the honors a nation can bestow upon its hero dead, in that plot set aside by the government as the final resting place for the country detected and honored by the spirits of them that repose in glorious honor eternally unimpeachable. The body of Colonel Charles Young arrived in New York from lagos, Nigeria, Africa, a few days ago, where it was buried after his death in January 1922. In September, 1921, while serving as military attaché of the United States Government in Liberia, he was sent down the west coast on confidential business. CONTEMPLATED WRITING BOOK After completing his mission, Colonel left Lagos on the island to collect material for a book he contemplated writing on the ancient civilization of Africa. Kano, a walled city of 90,000 inhabitants who live and traffic as their ancestors did before Christ, was reached, but themselves was too sick to write his notes. He started back to Lagos and while riding on a troop train was informed he was in the wrong car. After repeated calls to his car, his card. When his identity was discovered, the whale car was called to attention and commanded to salute the Negro officer. Arriving in Lagos seriously jill he had to be helped from the train. He was taken to the hospital, where he died seven days later. He was buried in the European cemetery. In that remote province, where military organization was scant, the funeral ceremony was of necessity simple. The city was not a part in the ceremonies. Marines officiated as the escort of honor. HONOR CEREMONY Last Sunday in New York the Great Hall at City College there was held through the consent of the War Department and under direction of the Charles Young and Leonard L. McKinney ceremony in which Col. Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., Assistant Secretary of War, with other military officials, W. E. B.

Leaders Becoming Frantic Over Recent Political Events in Which Colored Voters Upset Prediction (Wby Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C., June 1. There is something mystical about the color of colored America. Political wacies are silent. There seems nothing to do at present but think, think. All of the old time political dope have been miserable years, everyone is quite afraid to prophesy. "We don't know where we are going but we are on our way." It is all due to the fact that the colored voters are dividing their means addition, and victory for others not accustomed, heretofore, to reap the benefit of the sundown ballots. The Democrats of the big northern states have already made an effort to educate the colored voters by importance, or necessity, of supporting a "Conservative Democrat for President?" This is true work. We are not going to educate the colored voters by right centers. A heretofore Republican leader of national reputation said recently: "I have come to the place where I am willing to go out and work for a Democrat for the right man." This man has the power to influence thousands of votes. If there are those who are bold enough to come forth advocating the policy of "Stick to the Republican party" this wing of colorism is the admission of no less a person than President Harding, in his famous Birmingham address, in which the executive advised colored America to divide their votes. In his word," remarked the same previously mentioned national leader. OTHER LEADERS DISTURBED It is quite apparent that the big leaders of the party and the practical politicians are greatly disturbed by this new psychology of colored America. The party too literally "is the assertion of one of them. In the mean time serious conferences are in progress in this city between those responsible for Republican success in 1924. The issue is not being dodged or whitewashened, being faced, bravely, it may be said. Listen to this from a prominent Senator, who hopes to continue with the title without the addition of 'ex': "The advice of the president of the United States, if I certain it has cost a number of men their office, and if things keep on, of us will follow in their wake. We must give honest consideration to colored constituents if we expect to remain in office. It is, to say the lieutenant of the lieutenant and indifference are being realized upon by the Democrats whom we have always said are the colored people's enemies. The Democrats are taking the kick out of that assertion by giving more attention to states and local offices than we have done. From now on, we must play a different kind of politics." IN THE MEANTIME In the meantime, the colored voters may well be described as "sitting on the lid." They are telling all their "Brothers and their sisters and their sons and their daughters and their mother and their parents in the words present" day Broadway star to "Play that thing," meaning the game of politics, in this instance. They are looking with deep concern on the statements, interviews and statements of Ford, of Detroit, of Ford, of Detroit and wondering what may be done with a possible "Third Party," and they are even studying the program of the reorganized Socialists. What are the Republicans going to do about the question remains to be seen and heard. — Mrs. P. W.

Frantic Attempts To Rescue Lad Failed Rescuers Rushed Youth to the Hospital, Was Dead When They Reached There. Philadelphia, Pa.—Stopping to play near the city filter plant, James E. Curtis a little more school, James O. Borset boy, fell into a large pool. His cries attracted the attention of some of the boys he made several attempts to rescue him. When they finally succeeded in getting him out of the West Philadelphia Hospital, the child was pronounced dead. Chas. S. Morris, Jr., who spent last Friday, Saturday and Sunday in Norfolk, left Monday for North Carolina, where he began a speaking career, which will last three weeks and take him over the entire state. His first engagement was at Ahokie Monday night. On Wednesday, he met Prof. G. W. Spijder, Nashville, and other prominent North Carolinaians. A CIVIC LEAGUE FOR NORFOLK PROPOSED Big Mass Meeting Monday Night at Second Calvary To Launch The Movement. A mass meeting is called at Seco-den Calvary Baptist Church for Monday night, June 4, by a group of citizens interested in the city's civic bettermatter for the purpose of organizing a Norfolk Civic and Welfare League. Plans for the formation of the body have been worked up by this group of citizens, who have drafted a constitution for the government of the activities of the body. The league's purpose is to encourage civic responsibility. It proposes to encourage and solicit more creditable support to charitable and moral welfare organizations and to serve as a medium between white and colored citizens, the city governments and colored citizens. OPERATING IN OTHER CITIES A casual investigation has disclosed that Norfolk is almost singular in cities of its size without such an organization among its colony residents. Norfolk is among the large cities along the Atlantic Seaboard have their citizens' clubs, civic clubs, etc., which function as a civic league. The Norfolk Civic League is to function. Anyone, the least familiar with Philadelphia, knows what a power in civic affairs its Citizens' Club has. Norfolk and Baltimore have strong organizations of citizens who are ever alert for their cities' betterment and in a large measure keep vigil over the interests of the race in those cities. The good that such a body can render in a community is immeasurable. At times delicate problems arise that seriously affect the race without a body of organized and representative colored citizens to effectively cope with such situations. An organization, the like of which it is, proposed to organize here next Monday night, working with or better than other organizations, can almost guarantee fruitful results. VARIED USEFULNESS Again, each year the city is burdened with drives for charitable causes. What an impetus will be given any movement bearing the endorsement of the Norfolk Civic Association, the body of citizens will respond and make the organization what it should be, can easily be conjectured. Among the other races there are the Kiwanis, Rotary and such organizations, whose endorsement on most any community project is eagerly sought. It is hoped by those who are attempting to launch the movement that every citizen who realizes that at any day unantow conditions can arise in the city that will require the very best organized judgment to handle them, will attend the meeting. The movement has, the endorsement of the Department of Public Welfare and several other organizations and associations. Child Killed In Queer Accident Oswald Mennelle, little son of Mr. and Mrs. W. O. Mennelle, of Portsmouth, was accidentally kiili Wednesday while at play on St. Paulville, where he accompanied his mother to attend the commencement exercises, and momentarily gotten out of sight of his mother and was playing in the exhibit hall, when he in some manner pulled a heavy rack down upon himself, crushing out his life.

Funeral services were held over his remains at the home of his parents Friday afternoon, with Dr. Marcia Fridley, a professor of design were numerous and beautiful.

EARLY URE YOU ARE IN THE CONTEST BAKING POW- M-ANY FIRST 6 GROCER A LARGE NUMBER IN BAKING CONTEST When it was decided to have biscuits, as the item to be baked in the JOURNAL AND GUIDE-Royal bread baking contest, it was not known then how great an appeal the contest would make to the housewives of Norfolk and vicinity. This morning the writer was in Lamberts Point. Some of the housewives of this section think that the housewives of Norfolk proper, has given cooking demonstrations of baking prize biscuits, and that perhaps Lamberts Point would walk off with the first prize. In talking with Mrs. Alice Patton Allen, New York expert, have giving cooking demonstrations for the women of Norfolk, we picked up the following pointers, which might prove valuable to those who did not have the opportunity of seeing her demonstration Wednesday night at the Booker Washington High School auditorium: She claims that when using a cream of tartar baking powder like Royal much less shortening is required than when using the ordinary phosphate or alum types of baking powder, and for this reason the shortening should be cut in thoroughly with a knife, fork or side of a spoon, rather than mashing in with the fingers. She further holds that few persons can handle in a knife with hands as lightly as is required to make a very light biscuit. She says in her own baking she follows the following three very simple rules: "Have dough soft—not too soft that it sticks to the hands—but soft. "Handle dough as lightly and as little as possible. Have your oven hot and your wonderful success is sure." CITY PERSONALS —Miss Catherine Williams of 777 Avenue C, left Tuesday for Boston.

Birmingham, Ala., May 31—Prominent colored residents of this city benefited from the commerce to aid them in obtaining a new high school. The bond issue voted four years. Buy for next winter NOW and buy where prices are lowest consistent with highest quality. Hard Coal $15.00 per ton Pocahontas Nut and Egg $12.00 ago provided for a half million dollars to be spent for a Negro high school and elementary buildings and the colored citizens worked and voted for the passage of the issue, but no high school has been provided although the present buildings are totally inadequate. The board of directors have promised their aid. Currie, who says he was born a slave in Atlanta, in 1819, and is therefor 104 years old, has one barked up a career as a motion picture actor.

"The credit house that's human" is how their customers in other cities characterize the Federal Clothing Stores, according to T. O. Clark, the manager of their newly opened Norfolk Highway 50 Main Street, the latest addition to the chain operated by Levy and Nathan, Inc., of New York. "The principles upon which our President, Mr. J. Nathan, started his career in a little, two-by-four affair in Troy, New York, over twenty-five years ago, still guides the business," the newly appointed manager states. "One of those principles is—"A Square Deal to All," the other: "Honorable Credit to Every Honest Person." "This is one of forty "Houses of Service" in as many cities in the United States. The establishment here carries a complete line of latest and most up-to-date models in Men's, Women's and Children's clothing. To secure the women's wear necessitated a special trip to Paris by Mr. Nathan. Mr. Clark cordially invites careful inspection of his stock. He has the first dresses in Norfolk with designs showing the Egyptian influence. The men's and boy's wear came from the best known manufacturer in York and Rochester. The latest sportwear men's men with that "well-groomed" affect—and the conservative models for the wen who would look well dressed without that extremely youthful appearance—can be found in all sizes and materials. The success of these stores, dealing almost exclusively on credit, as they do, shows how completely eradicated is the old prejudice against buying clothing on easy payments. And the high quality of the merchandise demonstrably makes the clothing house has gone to meet the hands of its ever-increasing number of natrons.

Nation Honors Col. Chas. Young Continued from page one. Col. Axton and other army chapains. Federal troops under Brig. Gen. Bandholtz, representatives of the 24th Regiment, members of the National Guard, and service men will escort the body from the train to Arlington. Born in Mayslick, near Maysville, Ky., March 12, 1865, Col. Charles Young after finishing high school in New York, volunteered for church and Sunday school services. His further learning of an examination soon to be held for a candidate to West Point, interested his son, who was chosen for admission. He graduated from West Point, August 31, 1899. WITH NINTH CAVALRY He was assigned as second lieutenant of Infantry and later transferred to the 9th Cavalry. He was promoted to first lieutenant, assigned to the 7th Cavalry. However, at his request he was sent back to his old regiment. In 1858 Col. Young was commissioned a major by Governor Bushnell of the county of Okeechobee. His Volunteer Infantry, which was assigned to the Second Army Corps. He returned to the 9th Cavalry when the Ohio Volunteers were mustered out. He went with the 9th Cavalry to the Phillipines. In 1915 he was ordered home after serving with ability as military attache to the American Legation to Hawaii and Liberia. To Mexico with the 10th Regiment his was next assignment. Here the colored fighters made a memorable record in the engagement at Carrizal. PROMOTED TO LIEUT. COL. Following this Young was promoted to the rank of Luciet. Colonel and ordered to report for duty to the Adjutant General of the State of Ohio. While on duty there the War Office sent him a commissioned liner amined for promotion. He was placed on the retired list with the rank of Colonel. Physical disability was the reason given for his retirement. Retirement galloned on Col. Young, and it has been often said that it broke his heart and hastened his death. A World War was then on and the Army coached from across the Atlantic. Feverish preparations were going on in this country for the inevitable—entrance in the gory conflict. Young smelled burning powder and was restless for action. I prove his fitness he went from New Orleans to Washington nearly 500 miles, riding 4,500 minutes and walking fifteen minutes out of every hour. During the World War Colonel Young served for a time under the command of the Adjutant General of Ohio. Later he was ordered to attend Camp Grant. By request of President King, of Liberia, Col. Young was sent to Africa by the United States government toilitary attaché to helphabilitate the affairs of the disorganized country. Court Room Jammed At Garveys Trial Continued from page one A. I would have been dissatisfied n anyway. It was a disgrace the way there were fights at the meetings for selling shoes. Mr. Garvey held before the wit- ness a Black Star Line circular which she identified as one she received through the mail. She showed signs of fright. Assistant United States Attorney Mattuck intervened, saying to Mrs. Still: "Now, don't get frightened and just look at me." "No! No!" shouted Garvay, "Look at me and not at him." "Do you know the difference between the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the Black Star Line?" asked Garvey. "The U. N. I. A. is for sickness and death. The Black Star is for riches. Mrs. Still replied. The Black Star is Benny Danzy. Benny Danzy, a Negro cleaner, employed in the Pennsylvania Station, was the next witness. He said the circulars and other matters sent to him through the mails were so voluminous he could not remember what they contained. Henry Lincoln Johnson, counsel for Garcia, one of Garvey's co-defendants, asked to be impatient asked by Garvey. This precipitated a clash between them. "Please leave me alone," growled Garvey, glaring at Johnson. "He can object if he wants to," said Judge Mack. Mr. Garvey later reprimanded Danzy for shouting his answers. "I'll raise my voice at you if you raise my voice at me," retorted Danzy. The trial will be resumed Thursday. Judge Mack said yesterday it may be necessary to hold night sessions to expedite the trial. New York, N. Y.—Marcus Garvey, President General of the University Negro Improvement Association in Mississippi, Moses of the black race, would let no legal counsel transmil his defense of the Black Star Steamship Line. C. W. McDougall, Garvey's counsel of record, summarily was waded aside yesterday and Garvey himself stood forth to smash the Federal prosecution. Garvey's questions in cross-examination' created sensation after sensation in a crowded court room. With Leo Healey, Assistant District Attorney and former counsel for the North American Steamship Company on the stand, Garvey persisted in his calculation to elicit Healey's personal witness Marcus Garvey, defendant. Garvey discovered he had a witness of pronounced opinions on this subject. Other testimony concerned the steamship Yarmouth, purchased by the Black Star Line from the North American, and its voyage after transfer to the command of the Black Star Liner, colored, of the Black Star Line, certified that of the $165,000 purchase price the North American Line had received only $135,000. Garvey披 majestically before the jury; now twirling his ornate mustaches, now stroking his stubby beard, hurling four voluble queries which evoked protests even upon court. A gold monacle swung upon his simple breast, but the lawyer-defendant did not resort to it. "Mr. Healey," began Garvey impressively, "do you know Marcus Garvey?" "Inced, I do." "Wrong," Healey, is your opinion of him? "Why, Mr. Garvey, I was greatly impressed with Mr. Garvey's personality, his speech, his noble bearing; greatly, I assure you, 'Do you believe he is serious?' I certainly do not." In response to further inquiries Healey said he thought Garvey was a member of the Ku Klux Klan no friend of the "poor, poor people," that he muted them out of $1,000,000, and that he was incompetent to manage a steamship line. He cross-examined Healey for the fear of obstructing houses and laughter, Garvey as counsel, seemed to realize his questions permitted the witness liberties of a nature highly disadvantageous to Garvey, defender. Further testimony of Healey and Cockburn disclosed the secrecy of the Yarmouth under Black Sea State York to Havana, with a cargo of whiskey, before prohibition became effective. It was alleged the crew imbbed deeply of the cargo, that a mishap occurred off Cape May, and an S. O. S. was received: "We were in trouble." The Yarmouth put back to port for repairs and later completed her voyage. FRATERNAL NEWS On Friday May 11th The S. S. left over the Nortok and Western R.

Americans Have A Message For Africa James Henderson, of Love- dale, Speaks on "African Problems." Hampton, Va., May 31.—The Rev. Dr. James Henderson, principal of the Lovedale Institution, which is the largest and best known school for native youth in South Africa, who for nearly 30 years has been engaged in missionary education and who is visiting important American schools and colleges for colored youth, recently spoke at Hampton Institute on "Modern Problems of South Africa." Doctor Henderson described the Southward movement of the Bantu people from the extremely fertile region of the Equator near the Gulf of Guinea. The Bantu people, in this migration pushed before them the "Bushmen," who probably had traveled through Asia and through Africa, across the Amazon and through Africa," said Doctor Henderson, "are a dwindling people, destined to disappear. They never learned to cultivate" the ground. They were purely a hunting people, but they had a wonderful gift of art. They left paintings in the caves of Spain in the Pyrenees. Their paintings are in the caves of South Africa—wonderful paintings in which they used colors." Finally the Bantu people came into collision with the Dutch people in South Africa.

They preferred to be under the British Government. They complain today, and I think they have justice in complaining, that they were not consulted when the Union was entered into. Today, the Union of South Africa is as inland as England, as Canada is independent of English, as native people, have felt that they have lost by this union. They have sent deputations to England, even as late as last year, to spread matters before the King, but because the government has been handed over to the Union—our union is ruled by a parliament of the King, King Emmanuel, not interfere. It is the government of the country that must rule there. "We, who were in the country at the time, endeavored to secure the rights of the native people in the situation. The constitution conferred protection upon the made provision for other rights, but these rights have been very slow in being realized." The South African natives, according to Doctor Henderson, are solid for prohibition. In a recent Parliamentary vote in the Union, and question was held by only votes. The people of South Africa have this big problem to solve: "How are people going to build up a Christian civilization on insufficient economic means?"

(Associated "Negro Press") Washington is the Negro population in Delaware and that in his opinion many more were going to leave, Senator Dial of that State said today: "While many people think that South—and it may be in the long run—yet serious consequences will result to many landowners in the near future. Some may say that we will get the white population of the Negro—and this is to hope that it can not be done at once." The Senator who has been investigating the possibility of securing foreign labor to replace the native Swedish and Norwegian ministers. These gentlemen informed him he said that many of their countrymen had come to America but that they usually sought the job because it was similar to their native country. He said in effect that they were splendid agriculturists but hardly interested in growing cotton. The senator advises southern farmers to grow more diversified products and from a surplus crop. Such a possibility he suggests, is a long way off. RACE PREJUDICE IS BUILT UPON MYTH RACE PREJUDICE IS BUILT UPON MYTH Says North and South Must Work Together In The Solution of Problem. Washington, D. C., June.—"No longer can the south be left to solve the race problem," said Graham R. Taylor, of Chicago speaking before the closing session of the NAACP's annual work in session here, pointing out that by migration it had spread to a national question, and the "north can no longer point the finger of storm at the south's violence toward race prejudice. Mr. Taylor said, will not be diminished, even though the Negro may become further advanced, until the white people have learned to overcome many of the Negroes, which in some instances, are founded upon a background of myth, misunderstanding and misidentification. Indeed, of the Negro minority with it the increase of prejudice unless time honored prejudice are contended, with the result that the present-day race problem and its white counterparts start with the whites." he declared.

CATARRON BY BLADDER SUFFOLK EXTENSION CLASS A SUCCESS SUFFOLK EXTENSION CLASS A SUCCESS --- Prof. T. D. Pawley; of V. N. - and I. Institute, Closes a - Splendid Year in Teacher Training Here. BY MRS. HELEN H. HUNTER Suffolk, Va.—Early in October 2015, the English and County teachers organized an extension class in English. They were successful in securing the services of Prof. Thomas Desire Pawley, head of the English De- partment, W. V. N. and I. Institute, Petersburg. The class met on the first and third Saturdays of each month at 1 o'clock, and held its sessions for the college hours. We were instructed in the dhest method of teaching English in the elementary branches in acordance with the modern standardized schools. The contact with an inspiring instructor and familia- ry was essential to the work of the teachers more successful. There was no falling into a lifeless routine during the school-year. The students took note taking, letter-writing, argumentation, description, word study, interpretation of literature, how to teach English, mathematics, penmanship, reading, spelling and history were studied thoroughly. Seven teachers were on exposition and theme writing. The work of the extension class has aided the teachers to have a clearer idea of organizing thought. It has helped them to be more creative, and has won for them more sympathy and respect in the community. Many persons have been encouraged through the efforts made by the extension class, is generally thought that Sufok will for many years to come have an extension class conducted by an instructor from the State School at Petersburg. The surprise cannot be given to Professor Pawley, the instructor, for this year's class. The weather was never too severe for him to fill his engagements and easily understood, easily understood, and very liberal in his ideas. In token of the high appreciation and regard the members of the extension class presented to him a silver flower basket at the close of the last period. The presentation was made by Rev. K. Butt, president of the Press. Professor Pawley responded in well chosen words. Prof. Fawley leavs Suffolk with the best wishes of the community to the hope of the class; he return to them for the session of 1923-24.

Dr. Johnson also stressed, "That the challenge of the race in the world is to practice the right code of morals." The sermon text was taken from the Book of Proverbs 'and' the many wholesome admonitions drawn therefrom were much to be learned, and the many of the writer of the great book.

THE court-room in Nortonville was packed to hear the sensational Bruce murder case. It was a beautiful June day, and the children were playing joyously on the green lawn under the trees near by. Confident that he would be acquitted John's friends had made every effort to keep the news from his mother. But in vain. She had heard, and insisted on coming to Nortonville to be near her son. The colored people of the town had rallied to John's support and Henry Carrington, a noted colored lawyer from Boston, had been employed by them to defend him. The first witness called was Prof. Bruce. In a calm, solemn voice he told, partly of his own accord, partly under cross-examination, of his visit to the theatre, his return with Mrs. Bruce, of his hearing the fatal shot, of seeing John Walton running from the scene, and of the rifled examination papers. The implication of the professor's evidence was that By J. A. ROGERS Author of "From Man to Superman" Copyright 1923 By the Kelley Newspaper Feature Service. the body” the lieutenant continued. He drew out his notebook; took from it a small envelope of transparent paper and said: “and clutched in her fingers I found these hairs which under microscopical test are found to be exactly like those now on the prisoner’s head. A yet greater commotion in court. "He's guilty! It he's! whispered the spectators one to another as the attendants quited them. Lucille felt her head swim, but she summoned all her courage to reassure John's mother: "He will explain all when he gets on the stand," she said confidently, in suite of her fears. The detective who had arrested John was next called to the stand: "Where did you find Mr. Walton?" asked Attorney Carrington; Horn's ICE CREAM Purer, Because Heathized Its QUALITY Five(5) Modern Church Street Stores with Mezzanines.

"And you took them up?" "Just for a moment." "Why?" "I thought I saw the motive for the murder." "Do you think that this mysterious man that you spoke of would wish to get at the papers?" "I don't know. As I said, I never saw him." "You said you heard the voice of this mysterious man clearly?" "Yes." "What did he say?" "He said: 'Think what your husband and your society friends would say if they knew of this?' He seemed to be demanding something from her?" "Would you say by his voice that he was white or colored" asked the district attorney. "That is difficult to tell. In the part of the South that I came from it is often impossible to tell whether it is white or colored who is speaking. I have often guessed wrongly as to the color when I did not see the person speaking. I have noticed the same thing in regard to white and colored in the North. Environment tends to make all people, regardless of race, similar accent, as well as in her things." "Well, you formed some impression about the race of this mysterious man didn't you?" "Yes, I fancied that he was a white man, and a white man of some culture: This impression may be due to the fact that I couldn't fancy its being a colored man." "The hair found in Mrs. Bruce's fingers was from a colored man. Is there another colored man competing for the prize?" asked the district attorney. "None that I am aware of." "Did you communicate with anyone between the time you left the Bruces and the time you shot Mrs. Bruce?" "I didn't shoot lier," replied John quietly as his attorney objected to the question. "Can you bring anyone to prove that you had been in your room all the time, you claim you were""" "No." "No." "Didn't you meet anyone on your walk that you knew?" "I passed several persons. They may have recognized me, but I didn't recognize any of them." "And you say you walked a mile?" "Yes." "You know a good many people in that section of the town, don't you?" "Yes." "That's all—Wait. One question more. Isn't it a fact that you were counting on the $1500 cash from the prize to get married?" "I object," she told Attorney Carrington. The judge sustained the objection. The case closed. Attorney Carrington was about to begin his summing up when something dramatic occurred. Lucille had been listening fervently for John to tell of the attempts to bribe him. Intuitively she felt that had John not refused the bribe Mrs. Bruce would not have been shot. But she had listened in for John to say this in vain. Now, unable to keep silent any longer she rose in her seat and begged to be allowed to testify. "There is one fact that hasn't been brought out," she cried excitedly. "He refused a bribe of $5,000 to stay away from the examination. And there is the man who offered it to him." "It's a lie! It's a lie!" shouted Philip, springing to his feet. He was extraordinarily pale. (To Be Continued Next Week) (Associated Negro Press) New York, N.

A PRACTICAL SERMON TO YOUNG PEOPLE A PRACTICAL SERMON TO YOUNG PEOPLE (By REV. C. M. LONG) a sermon that abounded in sound advice on the subject "Honouring God and its Results" from the text 1st Samuel 2nd Chapter, 30th verse, "For them that honour me I will honour, and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed," was delivered by Rev. C. M. Long, of the Bank St. Baptist Church last. Sunday morning in a special sermon to the Young Folks of the city. M. A large space in the church reserved for them on this occasion was filled with the bright and beaming faces of those who had come to listen to words of inspiration and encourage ment as well as of warning that were to fall from the lips of the Bank Street pastor. In pointing out to the young folks the path of life. Rev. Long laid great stress upon the necessity of reproving the young at such time in their lives as must prove effective in the forming of their character. Among other things, he said, "As boys and girls, young men and young women of today, you do not know of the wiles and entanglements of this life and you must needs have some one to direct you into the proper channels of life. We come to show you what are the secrets of a successful life as well as the difficulties and the secrets of the failure of life in this world. We are masters of our own destinies and the surrest thing we can know is the outcome of our lives if we serve, the Lord: if we do not serve Him we know from the experience of others what the outcome will be. Some of you think you are too small to become Christians. But the moment you get to the place to know right from wrong, then you know enough to make a choice of God and to give your hearts to Him in the days when you are young. Those of you who look forward to a happy useful life should give your hearts to God early. The longer you wait the harder it will be to come to God. Go out into the world when you have given your hearts to God, even in your home and in your school and work for the Master. Be gentle with your little brothers and sisters in the home. Honor God by being truthful; no one who is given to telling falsehoods can honour God. "Honour thy father and thy mother; that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee." Many young people at times have wanted to take the reins of their young lives into their hands and having done so have suddenly come into trouble. Honour God in your conversation. There is too much filth and profanity used by young and old these days. Accordingly as a man thinketh in his heart, so is he. As young people if you think wrong, you will go wrong. On the contrary if you think right you will do right. No one can rise in this world with a filth tongue and a black heart. Honour God in all that you do." In the course of his sermon Rev. Long contrasted the difference in conduct of the unreproved sons of Eli, the priest of God and the firm behavior of Daniel under the trying circumstances of captivity as an example of self-control and exercise of will power, which he inferred the young might study with profit. A large congregation was present. WOMAN'S DAY OBSERVED AT GRACE P. E. CHURCH Sunday proved a most interesting a helpful day at Grace P. E. Church when Annual Woman's Day was observed.

The hope and endeavor of the Brazilian administration is that cotton in the near future should be as important a product as coffee has been. The export of cotton in 1921 was 19,000 tons, and for 1922 34,000 tons. English film producers have drawn leading American directors to them recently. NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE The Koran says, "There is a devil in every berry of the grape." The Rechabites are a worthy example of what proper training-will do for a people. "When you are in Rome do as the Romans do" is the motto only of weaklings. It is wrong to go contrary to conscience and conviction even though a preacher bids you to do so. Root and ground right principles in the young; and they will withstand the fiery darts of temptation and evil. BOLLING BROOK Services were good all day. Sunday school was well attended.

J. E. BRIGGS Instructor, of Theology and the English Bible, Virginia Seminary and College, Lynchburg, Va. SUNDAY JUNE 3. (May be used with Temperance Applications.) GILDEN TEXT-Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.—I Cor. 16: 13. 1. Jeremiah Tests the Sons of the Rechabites verses 15. the Rechabites, Verses 1-3. "Virtue is strengthened by resistance of evil. Temptations may be tests permitted by Gods the strengthening of moral fiber." Jeremiah, the prophet was com- jeremiah the prophet was commanded by God to go into the house of the Re- chabites and bring them into the house of God and give them wine to drink. The Rechabites were a wandering tribe of Kenite descent and thus connected Jesusman the prophet was commanded by God to go unto the house of the Rechabites and bring them into the house of God and give them wine to drink. The Rechabites were a wandering tribe of Kenite descent and thus connected with Moses' father-inal-w (Judges 1: 16.) Some of that family had settled in the south of Judah (Judges 1: 16.) others near Kedesh in Naphtali (Judges 4: 11.) This branch however, as we see, were noamadie."-Cambridge Bible. This was a very severe test of the Rechabites' principles for the prophete of God bade them to drink wine. 2. The Rechabites Stood the Test verses 6-11. The highest courage you can ever show is to dare to do your duty. -Dr. Wayland. The Rechabites refused the wine; they would not drink the wine, even though the prophet of God commanded them to drink it. Jonadab, the son of Rechab, our father, commanded us , saying, Ye shall drink no wine, neither ye, nor your son, forever, V. 6-8. Read 2 Kings 10: 15-28, Numbers 6: 3, 4. "If a thing is good for the father, it is good for the son, if it is good for one generation, it is food for all generations. Fathers should remember that not in the matter of drinking, but in the use of tobacco, in swearing, and in all their bad habits, what they do not want their sons to do they must not do themselves. We cannot follow the teaching of Jonadab the son of Rechab in every particular. Not to build a house; nor sow seed, nor plant a vineyard, nor have any; but to live in tents all our days might have been all right in the days of the Rechabites. Nomads (a people who has no settled place of abode) are misfits in our civilization. "When we consider closely the position of these Rechabites, we perceive that in much they were wrong, they were really trying to set back the clock of history and civilization, and their view of the ideal life was by no means shared by the great prophets of the Old Testament. The cry of the Rechabites was: "This now civilization is essentially evil; back to the old ways. Cease to build houses; to plough, and sow, and reap. Live in tents, care for your flocks and herds, as your fathers did Thus, and thus alone, will the purity of your faith be restored." Not to go backward, as the Rechabites and other fanatical sects wish, but to carry into the settled life all the worthiest convictions inherited from the past, and to recognize that social advance, in spite of the perils it brings, is in accordance with the will of God-is the summons of the inspired messengers of the Eternal." (Rushbrooke.) 3. The Object-Lesson from the Rechabites, verses 12-14. The Rechabites, upon whom probably the Israelites look down with contempt, were superior to the Israelites, in that the Rechabites were obedient to the command of Jonadab; they obey their father's commandment. The stiff-necked Jews would not hearten unto the commandments of God. The loyalty and obedience of the Rechabites were signally rewarded. "Jonadab the son of Rechab shall not want a man to stand before Johovah forever." V. 19. "Jonadab was willing to be peculiar and to make his descendants peculiar, because thereby he knew that he and they would be peculiarly strong, wise, and noble. Fashion is a miserable, worthless thing alongside of righteousness." What a conviction this for a young man to reach, that he is the man called by destiny to the sublimest task to which any human being can be called-the task of uplifting the moral life of his generation! The sense that our part have been deliberately shaped by Divine fingers, that God has not only put us where we are but made made waht we are securing for us certain privileges and opportunities of birth, and education, putting us through certain experiences and disciplines, bringing us within the circle of certain friendships and affections, not only watching but moulding the events of our lives and bringing us, to our astonishment, face to face with a situation in which we are compelled to acknowledge that he is confronting us with himself-that is the greatest moment in our lives when all this come home to us.

NO. 22 GO TO COLLEGE DRIVE REACHES 3 MILLION Report to Secretary of National Alpha Phi Alpha, Shows Great Educational Significance. Washington, D. C. May 25- The significance of the "Go to High School, Go to College" campaign which has just ended is seen in the reports which have come to the National Secretary of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Norman L. McGhee, from the various chapters of that organization, showing that the message reached more than three and one-half million teachers, parents and students in every section of the United States. The campaign was, not only conducted by the 47 chapters of the Alpha Phi Alpha but wherever a member of the Fraternity resides in the United States the movement was arranged. The importance of having reached so large a number of persons in such a campaign is not easily calculated. General President Sends Unique Message Great mass meetings were held in nearly every city in the country on Sunday, May 6. A feature of these mass meetings, as important as it was unique, was the reading of General President S. S. Booker's message, "We have set our hands to the task we can not let go." This message had been relayed by telegram all over the United States to every chapter of the Fraternity. Colored Editors Give Unstinted Support Perhaps the most important cooperation which was given the effort to spread the gospel of "Stay in High School and Go to College" was received from the editors of the colored newspapers of the country. In addition to the great amount of space given news matter regarding the campaign, many school officials moved and also carried display announcements across the columns of their newspapers. Clergyman Back The Movement Vigorously Another important group to lend their fullest cooperation to the "Go to High School—Go to College" campaign was the colored clergymen of the country. From the pulpit of nearly every important colored church in the large cities of the United States on Sunday April 29th, which had been denominated "Educational Sunday" by the Alpha Phi Alpha, mention the need of having the youth of the school thoroughly education and also the necessity of providing in many sections better educational facilities. Educational Leaders Assist Not the least of the important groups to assist in this educational campaign were the educational leaders themselves. From the presidents of colleges and the principals of high schoolsto the teachers in the graded schools, heartiest cooperation was given. In many cases requests were made by principals of high schools to the Fraternity to send speakers to adhere their students in connection with this important educational campaign. Chapters Use Every, Possible Means To Reach People The 47 chapters of the Alpha Phi Alpha not only created interest in the educational campaign by sending speakers to every church and school in their vicinities but in addition sent speakers to nearby WHY EXPERIMENT?

The location in question is the most picturesque in the city of Gary, and while the rumored venture rings with good business foresight, the disposition on the our group who are financially able to afford these, things calculated to make them more of a community factor, is after all, the ray of hope constantly searched for.

W. ber of our race whom I have known for many years. Mr. Terry left Virginia some twenty years ago and went to Brocton, where he secured a position as a janitor. Today, his estate, composed of reality holdings in Brocton and New York, is valued from an authentic source, is valued at approximately one million dollars." "Mr. Terry: did not accomplish this, young people, by standing on the corners and wasting his time in other ways, but by applying himself diligently to his work and earning his earnings. His climb: from a janitor to one of the most respected and useful citizens of Broton has been through difficulties which he has overcome by frugality and a determination to forge ahead. Mr. Terry is a credit to the race and whom I would like to have you enulate. He is a splendid example of thrift, industry and modesty, and withal a Christian."

MOTON AWARDS DIPLOMAS As in former years Dr. Moton awarded the diplomas, saying in part: "These diplomas represent our 50 years of experience and manual dexterity and skill, which are essential to your ulti- mate success; but they also represent what is more important, namely, development of character- the power to control the mental and physical development. "Moral development, young people, is absolutely essential to your success and prosperity. Without it mental development and manual skill may be dangerous. In these cases, the need for training and human misunderstanding forms very easy for individuals to lose their heads and to act unwise and instead of helping to bring peace among apparently hostile groups, they frequently intensify race feeling and strife. What the world needs today is less of selfish agitation and more of unselfish sympathetic co-operation and con- tention with wonts, destruction and more of serious thoughtful construction.

GEORGIA PYTHIANS IN FINANCIAL TURMOIL Charges Fly Thick and Fast Relative to Alleged Misuse of Grand Lodge Funds. (by the Associated Negro Press) Savannah, Ga., June 1—Pythius Circles in this state are much disturbed over charges and counter charges which are flying about between officers and prominent members of the order.

(By The Associated Negro Press) New York, N. Y., June 1—The influx of Negro immigrants from the South has made it necessary to provide more churches and there are many buildings and organizations yet needed before the Negro communities in northern cities will have adequate church administration, according to the Rev. W. A. C. Hughes, superintendent, Bureau of Negro Work. "A survey of conditions uncover situations like that in the Harlem section of New York City. There the entire seating capacity of the church will accommodate 20,000 persons. Relying on two services on Sunday only 40,000 can go to church, leaving 90,000 Negro people for whom there is not a place to worship available. Now, the Negro, south or north is devoted to his church, and this condition in northern cities today is alarming. The Methodist Episcopal Church, however, is trying to do more than merely provide a place of worship for these folk. It is trying to make the great adjustment easier for them so that they can then benefit the change of residence and environment. "Large churches formerly used by white congregations, like South Park Methodist Episcopal Church and Trinity Methodist Episcopal Church, Chicago, have been transferred to colored congregations, made up of newly arrived Negro Joliet Colleges, the Harwell Civil Social and Industrial Community Chicago, organized by these people, has devoted its educational and institutional classes largely to the problems of the Negro youth from the South. St. Mark's Episcopal Church and Salem Methodist Episcopal Church, in Harlem, New York City, are to have new large establishments, the former to be of the largest churches in the city. The John Vesey Methodist Episcopal Church in Brooklyn, made up of West Indian newcomers, is also enlarged in this movement. "East Calvary Church, largest single Methodist church, and six other Negro churches in Philadelphia, are receiving aid in expansion under the new conditions from the Board of Home Missions and Church Extension through the Bureau of Negro Affairs, the Street Memorial Church, Baltimore, has a new community house as prominent in its, expansion, which cost $75,000. Asbury Church, Anchapolis, has expanded its aid of all kinds, using a treestory building purchased by the Home Missions Board. Scott Memmons, the church to suit the larger constituency and the call to larger activity. In all the Board of Home Missions and Church Extension through this bureau is making possible over thirty building projects for Negroes in northern cities. It is the part of the work of the churches, and this demonstration is doing almost to meet the situation caused by the movement of colored people to the northern centers." ROPER Roper, N. C.-Revs. C.
