GARVEY PETITIONS POUR INTO CAPITOL Henry Lincoln Johnson Presents Plea Before Assistant Attorney General. (Special To The Journal and Guide) Washington, D. C., July 30.—Further efforts to obtain the release of Marcus Garvey on bail pending the outcome to the United States Circuit Court of Appeals proved little last week. While Judge Manton, of the second circuit which includes the state of New York, was denying a motion for bail for Garvey, Henry Lincoln Johnson and wife of Garvey's adherents were laying the case before the Department of Justice in Washington. Another petition was also sent to the White House. A hearing was had before acting Attorney General A. T. Sey- COLORED LAD IS HERO PATIENT New Haven, Aug. 2—In an attempt to prove that diseased blood can be taken from the human body purified and then returned, physicians at the New Haven general hospital took a colored lad, whose name is withheld, as the subject of their investigation. In the lad had been stabbed in the heart. The surgeon opened the heart cavity, withdrew the blood, filtered it, washed out the heart cavity, mended the cut and finally returned the purified blood to the patient's body. The lad is fully expected to recover. mour with Assistant Attorney General John W. Crime, representing the Department of Justice and assistance United States Attorney John E. Joyce representing the United States Attorney for the southern district of New York, in which Garvey was convicted. Garvey was represented by Henry Lincoln Johnson, D. E. Tobias and Robert L. Poston, prominent in the Garvey movement, were present and demanded a Federal investigation into the conduct of assistant United States Attorney S. Stattuck who prosecuted the case, and District Judge Muck, who presided at the trial. The argument was made for Garvey that the admission of allegations that his followers had an arsenal and had threatened the lives of Judge Mack and Mr. Mattuck was prejudicial to the interest of Mr. Garvey and was wholly irrelevant and immaterial to the question of grunting hail and should not have been admitted. It is said that acting Attorney General Seymour concurs in this opinion. But insinuish the grunt of the appeal the appeal is discretionary with the court, just what action will be taken by the Department of Justice cannot be forbidden. After the hearing Mr. Johnson made a statement characterizing the denial of hail to Marcus Garvey as a travesty upon justice. He cited the facts that Emma Goldman and "Big Bill" Haywood had been admitted to hail on offenses far more serious than any crime even charged against Mr. Garvey. Mr. Johnson said: "Mr. Garvey is entitled to bail pending his appeal to the Circuit Court of Appeals for the reversal of judgment of the district court, convicting him. "The denial of bail to Marcus Garvey is in largest measure produced by the admission of illegal testimony; that is to say, the district attorney produced allegations that Garvey's organization had an arsenal and weapons for offense and that directly or indirectly his sympathizers had been involved in the lives of the trial judge and the district attorney. None of this was proved, but was allowed to go in. "Emma Goldman was admitted to bail on a far more serious offence than Garvey's conviction, "Big Bill" Haywood was admitted to bail, and there is no earthly comparison between the thing for which Garvey was convicted and the community of the charge against Billy Garvey. "In my judgment, the denial of bail to Garvey in the circumstance is far more dangerous than all the crimes even charged against him." Chicago Editor Visits Norfolk Robert S. Abbott, editor and publisher of the Chicago Defender, was in the city last week after having attended the Hampton Institute Alumni Reunion. Mr. Abbott was impressed with the progress of race business in Norfolk and Tidewater. He was accompanied to the city by Major Allen Washington, of Hampton Institute. Mr. Abbott was the guest of Mr. William Rich and attorney J. M. Harrison during his brief stay in the city. In company with attorney Harrison he visited the Guide office. REFUSED DAMAGES (By The Associated Negro Press) Evanston, Ill., Aug. 2—Violet Richardson was denied damages against the New Evanston Theatre last week for refusing to sell her a seat on the main floor of the house by a jury of which Arthur Hill, a colored man, was the foreman. Mr. Hill declares that Miss Richardson was not refused on account of her color, but because "she failed to carry herself as a lady." Miss Richardson is now threatening to bring suit for slander against the courageous Mr. Hill and the entire jury. MAGNIFICENT GIVIC CENTER NEARLY READY Phyllis Wheatley Garden May Open August 15th; Rated As Finest Building Of Its Kind in the Whole Country. ASSEMBLY HALL WITH SPECIAL APPOINTMENTS Phyllis Wheatley Garden, under erection at the corner of Queen and Church streets, is nearing completion and will in all probability be ready for occupancy by August 15. Without this building, the greatest single effort will be forth by white business interests in the South and very probably anywhere in the country to place in a Negro section the best accommodations for the civic and commercial advantage of the race. The mammoth assembly hall on the second floor was designed and built with a view to providing for colored citizens of Norfolk a civic center unsurpassed in its appointments and conveniences by any building used for similar purposes anywhere. Its completion will serve the for many purposes to come the location of the ability of the colored citizens of this city to offer a spacious hall for the accommodation of conventions and other large gatherings. The exterior of the building is of face brick and glass. So liberal has been the use of glass in its construction that it presents the appearance of a mammoth glass structure. Safe and Convenient The idea of obtaining safety, convenience, light and ventilation dominates thru out its construction. Brick, steel, concrete and glass are the fire-resistant elements that go to make up this building. Strong steel girders and beams provide support for the floors and walls. But even with the idea of fire-proofing adhered closely to in the choice of elements used in its erection, the owner must provide the building with one more steel fire escape that was necessary to satisfy the requirements of the city building code. The first floor is devoted to stores, live facing on Church street, eight facing on Queen street and one large corner store facing on both Queen and Church streets. The corner store has a 65 foot frontage on Queen St., and a 30 foot frontage on Church St. Both fronts are of plate glass. To this store there are three entrances, the main entrance directly facing on Church St., the service entrance on the assembly room, and the street also provides entrance to this store. It is equipped with a continuous mezzanine. That is to say, the mezzanine, which is five feet wide and provided with a balustrade extends around the four sides of the interior of the store; high enough to permit of full use of all floor space on the ground; and has space for tables and chairs sufficient for the serving of 100 persons at a time. The mezzanine is composed of the assembly hall, a living bridge at the ground, from the all times, thereby making it available for serving refreshments to the public when the hall is not in use. All of the stores on both Queen and Church streets are equipped with a mezzanine protected by a balustrade. This arrangement gives each store practically double floor space. The whole front of each one will be of plate glass. Wide rear doors and huge steel saffrans transmite ventilation. Running water and air vents are amply provided. Those on Queen street all the foot wide by 48 feet deep while the Church street stores have a depth of 45 feet with a 11 foot width. Assembly Hall On the second floor is the assembly hall. Its dimensions are 50 by 125 feet. The floor is made of rift pine, leveled to an exactness. The walls are finished in snow white; the ceiling is built of ivory finished art metal and is 16 feet in height; the woodwork is muhoganized. One of the most striking features of this building is the extensiveness to which the idea of obtaining light and ventilation is carried out. Thirty-two huge steel sash transoms open on the north side of the assembly hall; Thirty-three on the south side and eighteen open on Church street. The interior of the hall opened the interior of the hall becomes literally an outdoor garden (Continued On Page Seven). NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, AUGUST 4, 1923 PS TWO AHEAD OF THEM ALL IN HIS CITY Suffolk, Va., August 2—Master Emerson B. Hardy, the youthful son of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Hardy, of Collon-den street, passed the wireless examination at Norfolk last week and was licensed as an unmature operator. Young Hardy is quite an expert at receiving messages. He enjoys the distinction of being the first boy in this city to become a licensed wireless operator. MAYOR CURLEY ACTS ON SCHOOL DISCRIMINATION Withdraws City Appointive Privilege From Normal Gymnastic Institute on Complaint of Washington Race Women. NO JIM CROW POLICY UNDER THIS EXECUTIVE Boston, Mass., Aug. 2—(Boston Chronicle News Service—Several weeks ago Mrs. Marie Crawford, formerly of Boston and more recently of Washington, D. C., had occasion to write to certain schools of physical education in the interest of a relative who plans to up work along that line. Among those who wrote "Posses Normal School of Gymnastics, Boswhose catalogue was, in due time, mailed to Mrs. Crawford. A cursory perusal of the catalogue disclosed the statement: No Colored Students Admitted! "I was astounded at this frank admission," writes Mrs. Crawford, "and immediately appealed to Mayor Curley." The tone of the story can be gleaned from the following exchange of correspondence between the Mayor and Mrs. Crawford: Your Honor:—Being interested in the continuation studies of a young woman, a graduate of the East Orange High School of East Orange, N. J., I wrote to Posey Normal School of Gymnastics, Boston, Mass., of which Hartvig Nissen is President, for their catalogue. "The catalogue was sent to me and call your attention to the non-Boston attitude of this school, which advises by way of advertisement that a part of its practical curriculum is carried out at Boston City Hospital. On page 12 of the 1923 catalogue the offending paragraph reads: "I beginning September 1923 only women will be admitted to the non-Boston school. No colored students admitted." On page 10, under caption, "The Facilities for Mexico-Gymnastics and Massage" is advertisement their association and active clinical work at Boston City Hospital. On page 20, describing the course, the required number of hours each student puts in at City Hospital is mentioned. I was stunned upon reading this non-Boston un-American attitude of Posey and appeal to you to have the officers of this school rescind said statement upon the penalty of the withdrawal of the City privileges. I appealed directly to you as Mayor and not to any of the quasi-political organizations for a similar, who in the end must appeal to you." THE MAYOR'S REPLY "Dear Miss Crawford:— His Honor the Mayor is duly in receipt of your letter of the 29th ultime advising of the discrimination practised by the officials of the Posse Normal School of Gymnastics against men and women of the colored race. Posse Corporation was formerly very instrumental in hymnics and physical culture in Boston, but its reputation of late years sadly diminished in character. It appears, however that the institution has been recognized by our City Hospital, and in harmony with the terms of your complaint, the Mayor has today authorized the trustees of the Boston City Hospital to the name of the Posse Normal School from the appointive list of the institution."

COLOR EXCLUDES FROM MILITARY TRAINING CAMP New Jersey Man Protests To Secretary of War Weeks on Exclusion of His Son From Plattsburg. PHYSICALLY FIT, BUT RACE BARRED HIM (Special To The Journal and Guide) Washington, D. C., July 30.—Anthony Mayo, of Bloomfield, New Jersey, has protested to Secretary of War Weeks against the exclusion of his son, Anthony R. Mayo, Jr., a member of the senior class of the Central High School, of Newark, N. J., from the Citizens' Military Training Camp at Plattsburgh because he is a Negro. Young Mayo passed the physical examination for the camp, but was rejected on account of his color. He received the following letter signed by Lieutenant R. P. Obsahine, stationed at headquarters, Second Army Corps Area, Governors Island, N. Y.: "It has been the established policy of the War Department to build Citizens' Training Camps for Negroes if sufficient number apply to warrant the holding of such camps. In view of the fact that only a few Negroes in the Second Corps Area have applied to attend such a camp it is not deemed practicable to hold such a camp for them. "This headquarters regrets that it will not be possible to send you to camp this year and hopes that you will not lose any of your true Americanism through the disappointment this year." The young man's father, in his letter to Secretary Weeks, said: "I wish you would tell me what this Lieutenant means by 'true Americanism through the disappropriately un-American to segregate the races in this part of the country. Such action only tends to create racial prejudice. It is certainly wrong to set up the ideas of the South and the North. It always has been the policy in this part of the country to educate the children together and for them to meet in every field of life together, so to draw a distinction when it comes to the training camps is worthy of my protests." Lieutenant Ohenshine said that the policy of segregation in separate camps, troops and regiments was a general policy of the War Department. He said that the same policy as regards the Citizens Military Training Camps was maintained last year. As we become interested in divine things, we lose thought of temporal things, and sometimes get separated from earthly things in the movements of life.

"So far as we are concerned, Mr. Curley is at liberty to form a趴赎 of black scholars in Boston and listen to them recite by the hour and week, but we are inclined to believe Mr. Curley would feel even more at home with a certain beautiful but malodorous quadruped more or less common to the woods of North Carolina, and whose chief claim to distinction comes from his latter qualifications rather than from his former. No Mr. Curley, you are wrong (Continued on Page Two.) GENERAL HINES TEMPORIZES ON TUSKEGEE ROW Rejects Proposal From White Committee, But Halts in Carrying Out Original Plan For Staffing the Institution. DISMISSED NURSES LAY CHARGES BEFORE HINES By MORRIS BROWN (Washington Correspondent) Washington, D. C., July 30-General Frank T. Hines, director of the Veterans' Bureau, continues to temperize with the irate townpeople of Tuskegee, Alabama, in their bold opposition, out of the order of President Obama, in hospital there, the United States hospital there, for disabled Negro veterans, be placed in charge of a complete colored personnel. TO CONVER WITH COMMITTEE AGAIN He is awaiting further proposals from the committee of three white citizens of Tuskegee, who were chosen to make known the views of the white people of that community, for a compromise plan for opposing their proposal and rejecting their proposal for an all-white medical staff and executive officers. He is said to look with favor upon a Negro staff with a white trustee board. The citizens committee will have another conference with the director at the Veterans Bureau. They will make their final suggestions for the staffing of this hospital. The information that General Hines had directed John Calhoun, a colored accountant, to return to the hospital and replace a white employee, was the cause of a renewed outbreak of racial feeling. Calhoun, it is remembered, arrived in Tuskegee, on July 2 for the purpose of assuming a position at the hospital in the office of the disbursing clerk. He left on the afternoon of July 3. Shortly after his departure, 700 klansmen, robed in United States sheets, it is charged, paraded through the town and several were fed at the hospital. It is alleged that two notes from the Ku Klux Klan ordering him to disband the organization, Colonel R. H. Stanley, native white Alabaman, who is the present commanding officer in charge of the hospital. Stanley offered him no protection. General Hines, who visited Tuskegee on July 5, says that Calhoun left of his own accord. NURSES SUSPENDED On Monday of last week, two of three suspended nurses made their appearance at the Veterans' Bureau here, having in their possession what purports to be an order for the delivery of the sheets, (it is claimed were used by the klansman on their match of intimidation. SUBSCRIPTION PRICE $2.00 PER YEAR ★ ★ ★ Leakeysville, N. C., Augg—Just as a large number of shopper were passing a bank building at the corner of Washington and Patrick streets Saturday afternoon a furore was created when the form of a man was seen to plunge to the ground from the second story window. Excitement increased when the body which was lying on the ground like a corpse was picked up and thrown into a wagon and carried off. An officer came out of the building, stopped the wagon and said the man picked up to make him and would have to be held. He was Lindsey Allen who had been arrested on a minor charge and taken upstairs in the bank building while a warrant was being drawn against. Allen decided to escape via of the window while the officers were momentarily unobserving him. An examination proved that he had suffered no serious injury. The order was dated "July 3," the date on which the parade was had, and was for an unusually large number of sheets. On July 4, when the sheets were returned to the store-room, they bore marks of the considerable grease and grit, substantiating the charge that they were used by the klansmen. The suspended nurses are, Mrs. Evelyn Robinson, of Philadelphia; Mrs. Zelda H. Peck, of Chicago, and Miss Adela M. Wood, of Norfolk. Notwithstanding that they had never been called to the office and reprimanded for any cause, these nurses were summarily suspended indefinitely without pay and given 20 hours by Colonel Stanley to get off the Government reservation. No charges were assigned for this action. They were only told that their services had proved unsatisfactory and their suspension was over. After they reached Washington and made their complaint to General Hines, in answer to a telegram of inquiry, Stanley preferred the charge of insubordination against them. It is claimed that an indisposition on the part of Nahum D. Brascher, editor-in-chief of the Associated Negro Press, had to do directly with the suspension of these nurses, particularly one of them. It is learned that she had been furnishing him with information regarding conditions at the hospital and the high-handed methods of Colonel Stanley. Mr. Brascher was so well pleased with the information received by him on the day following the Ku Klux parade that he could not recruit his conditions. He sent her a telegram of apology and he work as an informant. Through the local telegraph office in Tuskegee, the contents of the message leaked to Stanley and she and two others were immediately suspended that afternoon. RED Cross WORKER DISMISSED The hospital was opened on June 1. There are approximately 97 patients there, of whom about 21 are insane and the others tubercular. All of the doctors and governing officers are white. There was a colored Red Cross worker there, a Mr. Church, but he was dismissed for incompatibility at the instance of Mrs. Keeleyan a wife of Cross worker of Chicago. She is charged with requisitioning the sheeets for use by the Klupsman. General Hines has stated that the patients there are satisfied with the present management; but it develops that this is true only of the insane patients, who are given the very best treatment and whose attending physicians are of a higher type than the ordinary doctors in the tuberculosis division. Many of these white doctors favor turning the hospital over to a degree hat. It indicated that Colonel Stanley is in hague with the Ku Klux Klan, and his son-in-law, a Mr. Sims, who is the disbursing officer at the hospital, is a king kleagle. But General Hines has indicated that Stanley will not be removed as long as there is a white doctor there. With racial feeling at Tuskegee as intense as it is, Principal R. R. Moton is still away from Tuskegee Institute. He, Dr. J. A. Kenny, who was run away, from there, and A. L. Hosey, secretary to Dr. Moton, were in Washington at the home of Dr. M. O Dumnas on last Friday, when they would make any statement on the hospital situation. Dr. Moton left on Friday night, but his destination is unknown. Sues Bank For Robbery (By The Associated Negro Press) Gulfney, S., C. August 2—Local bank has been sued by Arthur Corry, colored, to recover $50, which he claims is due by the bank on the receipt of a bagus telegram. The bank denies the charge but Corry insists that he is being jobbed by some "unknown parties who do not want to see me rise in the world." ASKS FOR PARK FACILITIES FOR ALL THE PEOPLE Mr. John J. Pitt, Fair-Minded White Citizen, In Letter to Press Urges a Square-Deal For Colored Citizenry. ASKS CITY TO ADOPT GOLDEN RULE POLICY Mr. John P. Pitt, a substantial white citizen of this city wrote a letter to the Editor of the Virginian-Pilot last week advocating the providing facilities for the colored people of Norfolk. That letter has attracted no little comment among the colored citizens who have at heart interest in getting for Norfolk recreational facilities that may be enjoyed by all the people. Coming as it does at this time, when there are so many things to beset the southern colored man this advocacy of a square deal one more chance personally avail himself of any and all the pleasures and benefits provided by the city, is being heralded as one more cheer in the cup that is filled with disappointment and denials. Mr. Pitt has the appreciation of every colored citizen in Norfolk for his outspoken attitude on this question, and it is believed that with public opinion heading in the right direction, as his letter indicates, that something common will arise out of the many plans and proposals that, it is said, have been considered by the city authorities from time to time regarding making available need recreational facilities for all the people of Norfolk. That letter is published in the One of your recent editorials emphasizing the wisdom of improving living conditions of the colorado race has suggested to the city officials, which, as yet, our city officials have failed to duly consider the black man. "About one-third the total population of Norfolk consists of Negroes. There is not a breathing, place in the entire city where colored people may feel free to go and enjoy the pleasures that public parks are intended to provide. Formerly, a small reservation in Laffayette Park was furnished with a few benches and a water tank for the exclusive use of Negroes, but those bare comforts were removed and that particular section entirely neglected by loopers and gardeners; thus was the Negro given that his pressively to the city longer was desirable in the principal and most beautiful recreational spot in the city. Since it appears to be the purpose of the Director of Public Welfare or whoever is in authority to discourage the presence of colored people in our public parks, is it not pertinent to inquire what sort of constructive program has he to offer as the alternative? To deny a minority group of people the pursuit of happiness in the direction that others are permitted to seek it may be in accord with that fallacious doctrine, might makes right, also it may gratify the overt desire to every step toward fair treatment and a square deal as an advance towards social equality, but such an attitude on the part of public servants will not be shared nor endorsed by that substantial body of straight-thinking citizens who have a clear conception of special justice and wish to see it courageously administered in the affairs of civic life. "It is true that there has been some talk of purchasing a park for the use of colored people only, but also there has been a good deal of talk about auditoriums, city farms, bathing beaches, etc. While the talk morally goes on the NEGUS organization, the board donned quarter of the city, in a side street, occupying an antiquated tenement, and paying a white landlord's investment. When the black man's flat-rated house becomes unsuccerely heated by the tori summer sun during doggles and the kerosene stove, infested nights he sleeps a bit of fresh air; not under the cool trees in some public square or restful park—there is none to bid him come—but on the doorsteps of his little home in a treeless street." "Cold calculating, practical business men of the South, who have made a keen analysis of the unhappy economic situation, and indeed already exist, due to the migration of Negroes (.) the North are beginning to face the fact that other considerations than better wages have accelerated the Negroes' exodus from the South.

MARY MAGDALENE Luke 8: 1-3; John 19: 25; 20: 11-18 (Mary Magdalene Saved and Serving.) Golden Text—Our soul hath waited for Jehovah: He is our help and our shield.—Isa. 32: 20. L. Mary Magdalene Ministers unto Jehovah 3: 20 Woman's Service to Christ. It is not too much to say that every freedom woman has to dry, all the honor that clothes her and the chivalry of feeling which she inspires is the work of Christ. Her debt to Christ is incalculable, and his debt with splendid devotion. In the long annals of martyrdom the names of women are as numerous, men and in the application of Christian ideals to prae- tical service they are not less nu- mous. Perpetuus dies as nobly as St. Paul, Catherine of Sien- was as devoted to Christ as Francis of Assisi, and Florence Nightingale did a work for the wounded in the battlefield as far reaching in its influence as the work John Howard did for the church of St. John the Willard did as much for the cause of temperance as John Gough, and Catherine Booth was more truly the founder of the Salvation Army than William Booth. It is sometimes said with a touch of scorn that the churches are full of women; to my mind that is not a matter for scorn of women, but for women rock the cradle of the child? Is it not from the mother the child learns its first ideals of life, which are usually ineffaceable? Without the prayers of Monica would there have been an Augustine without a Susannah Wesley would there have been the piety of a John and Charles Wesley, and the gave a new note and a new quality to the progress of English- speaking peoples? And all forms of heroic service for humanity the same lessons meets us. Women have gone from the altars of the Church to the fierce testings of war, and in an Edith Catherine we have a tacit acknowled- ledge that she was and did she owed to the Church and did she inspire the Church's martyred Master.—Dr. W. J. Dawson. The certain women who follow Jesus and the apostolic band were deeply in debed to Jesus. He healed them of evil spirits and infirmities. Mary Magdalene had been treated (cured) of insanity, pepchas, gratitude, ministered out of their substance, unto Jesus and the apostolic band. "While we can not buy salvation with money, yet we can show by the way we support the Gospel and the messengers that we appreciate it. The way we use our money whether we really believe the Gospel is the precious treasure that we profess it is. Real gratitude for it is shown by the way we provide for those who at the divine command bring it to us."—Melaughung. *Mary Magdalene at the Cross, and at the Sepulchre at Jno. 19:25; 20:11-13.* Mary Magdalene was hast at the church and carcass at the grave Mrs Brownning contrast the attitude of the disciples with that of the faithful Mary's four of them. Mary Magdalene and the other women stuck by their Master to the last. We cannot find in all history or literature another example of such love. Mary Magdalene will ever doubt John's love to Jesus. No one will ever doubt the love of Simon, 'Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me?' 'Yen, Lord, thou knowest that I love thee.' But the fact remains that on that Easter morning Peter and John went to their homes again, and only a woman lingered by the grave," Hastings, Greater Men and Women. The Sacred Record says that Mary Magdalene was early at the tomb. Jesus. She stood without eyes, and when she entered into the tomb, she saw two angels. She was weeping because her Lord had been taken away, and she did not know where to find him. "She hardly thought of the angels, though she conversed with them as naturally as if a talk with angels had been one of the commonest occurrences in her life. She often said why they should be there. Her whole heart was busy about one thing only—the finding of her Lord; and that one absorbing purpose blinded her to every thing that otherwise would have seemed unusual." (Knight). 3 Mary Magdalene Meets The Men Lord. - John 2014:18. 2 Mary Magdalene blinded the eyes of Mary. She did not recognize Jesus. But when Jesus called Mary by name, it was enough for her. She then knew that her Lord and Master was alive. Is it any wonder that she called Him Master and wanted to cling to Him? She only of all the disciples and followers of Jesus deserved the Lord first, and to be the first person to carry the good news, "He is risen from the dead." The story of Mary Magdalene teaches us the power of love. He drew her after the Savior. He strengthened her for ministry. It was a woman who won for her many blessings." Love never faileth." By REV. RICHARD H. BOWLING Pastor, First Baptist Church Almost everyone will agree that the minister should be paid. But, after all, that is not the issue raised by the subject. The real question is, Does it pay to pay a tax? GETTING RID OF WOERY Also, paying teachers will relieve you of work and so increases his efficiency. Instead of running here and there, borrowing or getting an endless chain of notes signed, or crediting the adequately compensated minister can plan unhurriedly and work without these time-taking and nerve-racking interruptions. preacher well? i is, as good a salary as the church a man guaranteed burdening himself, a salary communicate with the incomes of other leading men of the community, a salary which will lift the minister out the puppe class him to live the larger life. PETER H. CHANCE FOR STUDY But a good salary is not only helpful to the preacher, it holds direct benefits for the church. A good salary lays the minister under obligation to subscribe for good magazines and to build up a serviceable library. One notable lack in the home of the average underpaid pastor is the lack of the magazines and books that should be helping to keep him keyed up for work. It is not the pastor not able to himself for study is robbing its own life. It may be satisfied travelling in the same old ruts of thought, but it can certainly not be edified, furnished with the means for combating newer inefficiencies and making the needed adaptations of the old gospel in a changing world. Further than these general terms we cannot go into definition. For churches differ in ability, communities differ in the expense of living ministers vary in their monetary value to a church. One man in one church may not be well paid at $10 per month. Another in another field may not be well paid under the same per month. The standings of remission is to be thoughtfully and prayerfully worked out by the individual church. DRESSING WELL Another obligation put upon the well paid preacher is that of dressing respectably. No self-respecting congregation can feel proud of a pastor, however brilliant intellectually or sincerely spiritual, who in the pulpit, on the public highway and in important civic, denominational and inter-racial conferences wears always perform a pair of sheers run down at the heel of a sheek suit long since turned green. The sheers long since become incarnately bagged in the knees or thin at the elbows, salary should mean clean linens, a decent hat, a regular shirt and hairstyle, in fine, a respectable appearance for the minister. But the church having once decided upon a reasonable compensation for its minister, the question was whether the minister to thus commemorate his spiritual life. The answer is, Yes, if the following considerations are borne in mind. Paying a preacher well relieves him of some things, while putting him under stricter obligatory care in his church in some other things. TEMPTATION TO STEAL The well paid preacher is relieved of the temptation to dishonesty or any other form of moral compromise. Often a man would spurn stealing, if he did not know what he was stealing, or the talict of "being funny with the money" among ministers has been due to this thing of underpay. Of course, mishandling of other people's money by a minister is as reproducible as stealing by any one else. But often a minister paid upon his own or is called upon by an able person hundreds of dollars raised under his leadership to pay the carpenter, the timer, the painter, or the art glass man, at just the time his creditors are most insistent. Living wage would curb the power of temptation in such a case. AN IDEAL HOME A church may also expect from the well paid preacher a home to which the parishioners can look at an ideal. No man living like a picnic can show you how to live like a gentleman, in a man adequately equipped to live in home marked by comfort, cleanliness and taste. In such a home there will be saving devices such as an electric, a vacuum cleaner and a washing machine, an inviting bathroom, airy and well furnished bedrooms, a living room where music and some good harmless games and some good pleasant make life at home a pleasant study where solid books call one into fellowship with the ages, and everywhere beautiful pictures, daily deperatures and the carmarks of culture. Remembering that the church is the community into which all classes free to come is the preacher's home, I say, for the community's sake, let that home be an inspiration! MORAL CO313RQMUSES Desires, urgent need will offer drive to other moral compromises. It takes an unusual amount of grace to keep a minister in financial distress from being overed with children who will rewind him by chiding him up for receptions, parties, and occasional presentations. The minister who must depend upon free groceries, free meals, free clothes, free medicine, medical and dental services, minister has about as much power as whole gospel and to assume a community's moral leadership as a schisming politician. Gifts to a preacher are alight when they are sicken钱来 of the love and gratitude of members and friends. But when they must be looked forward to, piecing him out his salary, enabling him to make ends meet, then they are as potent for evil as any other form of bride. Remember, these depend upon a legal contract which must be lived up to. They are drawn upon how well the minister impresses to be "pleasing" his followers. STAYING ON THE JOB But there is still another advantage: proper remuneration for the minister who puts him under stricter obligation to pay his own church as preacher, pastor or executive. There may be some excuse for the minister who spends as much time out of town as he does in, when only thus could he be sure of enough to live on. But there is absolutely no reason why the average well paid minister does not remain at his post. His powers him. They want his spiritual guidance well-prepared messages week by week to hear him well and in every honorable way show their increasing confidence and love. When they fall sick or become perplexed or pass through grief and trouble, they want him to come to them. They take his advice in the most spiritual concerns. They want a strong hand and his constant assistance in the direction of the program's business of their church. An admonitorary key is the minister under obligation to satisfy these expectations. Briggsograms. "Gratitude is a capacity, and like all capacities it can be expanded. Woman dose much for Christianity, because Christianity has done so much for her. A Christian woman is the most beautiful being in all the world. A woman-swan was last at the cross, and first at the tomb. He who truly loves Christ is truly loved to Him.

Nearly all the negroes living here were born and rented somewhere in Dixie. Almost every dollar they earn is spent in the community they live in. We should not do less for others that make our cosmopolitan population, but simple justice demands that we do more for the Negroes.

Neither Massachusetts nor North Carolina believes you, and neither will give any grave concern to your words. Your colossal ignorance of the racial relations both within and outside the Dixon line makes your virtuosic below a bray instead of a roar. "But you happen by some freecf of fate to be the chief executive of one of the fairest of Americans cities. We suggest that you hurry to the public libraries for which you are destined to delve into that part of natural history dealing with the mephitis and his various pericularities." major Curley's reply follows: "my paper of June 29, 1923, contains the caption 'Skunk Cabbage,' which appears to exemplify the best traditions of the "Eatonville Gazette," made famous by Charles Dickens in the 'Pickwick Papers,' which by this time may be considered one of the Wilmington News. It is quite sensible I may be giving you and your paper credit for a taste and intelligence you do not possess and a literary knowledge you have yet to acquire; but certainly the Wilmington news seems to have the passion for a taste language, personal villification and tawdry assertion that marked the Eatonville Gazette. "The Mayor of Boston has a profound respect for the Constitution of the United States and the laws based upon it; the honor of the News treats both the honor of the spirit of that document with temp and seems to believe that his absurd prejudices concerning the Negra and his Constitutional status are superior to both the laws of the United States and the laws of God, who made us own image, ignorance and intolerance such as the Wilmington.

With his arms about Beatrix, his lips upon hers, and even their eyes almost touching, he hardly knew what was happening. All he was aware of was blinding light, light, light, as if lightning itself had dashed him in the face and shrived his body, leaving him nothing but soul, fire, and a sweet, terrible sense of annihilation. Almost before he realized it, he was clutching empty air. Blinded, bewildered, he stood swaying at the piano. As through a cloud of smoke he saw Beatrix Marley at the other end of the room, in some way escaped from his arms. Her hair down on her shoulders, her face hard and pale, and her eyes, like sharp forks, stabbing at his breast, she towered before him like an angry deity. Her lips were moving rapidly, but it was some time before her words pierced his amazement. Even when her arms shot out in a commanding gesture toward the door, he stood gaping at her, uncomprehending. "You, you!" he heard her say, in rest of the Harvard men I have his ears began to clear. "You go!" Without the least idea of what he was doing he took a step or two toward the door. Then his legs seemed to double under him. He, the knight dropped weekly upon a chair, still staring at her dumbbell, helplessly. "Oh, Miss Marley!" was all the poor Virgin could lind to say. His mind, or rather his imagination, was working now. He, the knight of knights, the chivalrous champion of women, who had never The girl's arm dropped to her side still full of anger, but the anger was mingled with doubt. She made a motion to sit down, then she straightened again. But it didn't seem to understand what I said, "came her low, cold voice. "I don't," he stammered, at last finding speech. She sat down, looking at the big, blinking boy as if he were a curious object. The Virgin rubbed his forehead, trying to pull himself together. The doubt was still there, the denunciation immediately following had left him mentally numb. It was like being jerked out of a boiling vat and thrown into an ice stream. He had never had any experience with women; now a lifetime of experience was coming all at once and without warning. His mind reacted slowly; it had been almost chilthed; an emotion since he had taken the cry in the girl in his arms. He turned to her as a child turns to his teacher. "Why," he asked, "did you tell me to go?" Beatrix Marley regarded him sternly. Evidently she had made up her mind to give him a sound verbal paddling. "I should have saved my breath," she said with a superior manner. "I should have realized that you would not know enough to go. Any young man who would take the advantage offered him by a song for his entertainment would hardly have the principle——" "Oh, Miss Marley," almost sobbed the poor Virgin. "You need not blame yourself too much. It was really my fault—an error of judgement which is inexcusable in me. After all the gentleman I've seen I ought to know gentility when I see it.

"Oh, Miss Marley!" was all the poor Virgin could find to say. His mind, or rather his imagination, was working now. He, the knight of knights, the chivalrous chameleon, never kissed a girl in his life before night, was suddenly revealed to his own eyes as a wretch, a discredit to his college, lower in the moral scale than the most shameless rakes of the university. The Virgin was sentimental; the pecidillo he had just committed assumed an offense against God and man. "As I said, I am to blame," said Beatrix Marley, more gently, for she was her well-poised self again, and seemed to enjoy making the Virgin writhe. "Moreover, you have taught me a lesson; henceforth I shall be even more careful of my acquaintances. We Boston girls, unwise as I have just seen, have been playing every Harvard man as a gambler.

I've acted like a—a—not like a gentleman. I hope some day you'll forgive me in your thoughts." By this time he had reached the vestibule, and Beatrix followed him with head sadly bowed. "Good-bye," he said miserably. "I'd wrong. I didn't know any better. I never kissed anybody before." "If you had only been a gentleman," she murmured, her eyes on the floor, "what a happy future we might have had." "It might be ye!!" he panted. "Oh, Beatrix, say you'll forgive me! I'm not the kind of fellow you think I am; you don't know me. You are the first girl I ever——" "Good night," she said non-committally, keeping her hands behind her. The Virgin found himself on the sidewalk and in a daze. He felt mean, degraded, as if some angel with a flaming sword had cast him out of heaven as something unclean. He slunk along the street he reached the car trucks which which meant he had him like curving serpents. The world ordered to weigh upon him. Every house met him with a stoney stare, every passory seemed to be saying: "There goes a man fallen." It was foolish, of course, but normality can hardly be expected of the supersensitive mind of a boy just after his first embrace, especially when it has been followed by a tongue-lashing from the beaver. If there be any man who has ever been Christopher Bowling did at this moment, the man has never kissed a Beatrix Marley. He was three miles from the college, but he did not care. Time and distance were as nothing to his present mood. He began to walk briskly in the sharp air. The exercise stimulated his blood.

Again he heard that song, trembling with the passion she had poured into it; again he heard the hum of the piano as she paused; again he heard the wild notes and saw her raise her vet, black eyes and roused lips. His lips throbbed. If he had not felt the warmth, electric lips that had reached the innest recess of his being and wiped the world out of his mind. What if the lady had been offended? Having once had that kiss he could say that he had lived. He came to the great bridge across the Charles River. He took off his hat to cool his head, which was burning. He looked down at the water and wondered how it could be so cold, evenly, when he himself was in such a turmoil. It did not occur to him that the river had not kissed Beatrix Marley. He strode along, his arms twitching, his whole body in a tronner. He did not try to think it over. He wished only to feel that sensation again. He was not the same Christopher Bowling who had crossed that river an hour before, that he opened to him; stiring within him, thus impulse that he knew not how to punish He was alarmed at himself. At the Marley home, under the lash of Beakix's tongue he had been objectively ashamed of his trespass upon conventionality.

We all want to know how the people have received them and how they are faring socially and industrially. Rev. D. F. White, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church, of Norfolk, who has been making a speaking tour of the North, has told the readers of the JOURNAL AND GUIDE that there has been a marked change for the better from World War times, in the reception given the new comers by the people and employers of labor in points touched by him. His conclusion is of the greatest importance that "the Negro laborers are fitting into the industrial life of the communities admirably well." We gather the same conclusion from our exchanges in the industrial centers; also that uplift organizations of the race are doing a good service in finding work and in protecting the interests of the workers. Some of the churches in the Northern industrial centers are finding their seating capacity overtaxed because of the new comers, who take their church-membership cards with them when they leave the South. This is a very gratifying condition; that is, that the migrants hold fast their membership in the churches Churches. Editorial Page of A. Plea For Pair Play That was an interesting letter which Mr. John J. Pitt wrote to the Virginian-Pilot regarding park facilities for colored people of Norfolk, and which was published in the July 25 issue of that paper and is reprinted in another column of this issue of the JOURNAL AND GUIDE. The letter strikes a high note and rings clear in its appeal for more government by right and less government by might. It is the expression of such sentiments as contained in Mr. Pitt's letter that presents a rift in the clouds of discrimination and social injustices that gather about the vison of the Negro in the South and makes him leave the land of his birth under Southern skies to seek habitat in lands, the strange to him, where the promise of a freer atmosphere holds out. Mr. Pitt truthfully says that, "about one-third of the population of Norfolk consists of Negroes. There is not a place in the entire city where colored people may feel free to go and enjoy the pleasures that public parks are intended to provide. When the black man's flat-roofed house becomes unsuFFERably heated by the torrid summer sun during dog days and the kerosene lamps during mosquito-infested nights, he seeks a bit of fresh air, not under the cool trees in some public park or restful square—there is none to bid him come—but on the doorsteps of his little home in some treeless street." In so far as recreation benefits a people, that is the humiliating and health-menacing condition of the colored man in Norfolk, his home city, where he is a royal citizen and taxpayer. It is a condition that it ought not to be possible to find in any Christianized community, whether it be in the North or South. But the situation is even more pathetic than the writer described. While the black man seeks a bit of fresh air on the stoop of his home in a treeless street, mother and babies crowd windows, like so many chickens in a coop, in an effort to catch a zephyr of refreshing breeze, while boys and girls of the dangerous age must be allowed to choose between roaming the streets or suffocation in a stuffy home. It is true that "formerly a small reservation in Lafayette Park was furnished with a few benches and a water tank for the exclusive use of Negroes, but those bare comforts were removed and that particular section entirely neglected by keepers and gardeners; thus the Negro was given expressly to understand that his presence was undesirable in the principal and most beautiful recreational spot in the city." But even to that segregated spot Negroes have never felt free to go. Its use could be had only under the most humiliating circumstances. Neglected and unkempt as it was, its condition ever presented a silent but sinister reminder that the Negroes were not welcome anywhere in the park. Few Negroes would compromise their self-respect and use that spot under conditions plainly meant to humiliate them. This condition of affairs constitutes a scar upon our Christian civilization, a mote in the rule of democracy and a plain repudiation of the principles of decent majority rule. Medical science has pronounced that wholesome recreation is conducive to the good health and good morals of a people. Sociologists have pronounced that a lack of wholesome recreation fosters juvenile delinquency, moral derelictions, contributes to heavy court dockets, full jails and charity wards, all of which constitute a heavy burden upon the taxpayer. Moreover, any people or group of people denied the opportunity to round out into a heathful citizenship morally, mentally and physically, form a loss in economic values to the communities of which they are a part equal to the aggregate deficiency suffered by each individual. Thus recreation is a thing bought and paid for whether it is provided or not. On this question the mandate of science is clear and distinct. But the dictates of the Golden Rule and social justice are even more poignant. The only question yet to be answered is, will the city continue to "deny to a minority group of people the pursuit of happiness in the direction that others are permitted to seek it?" We have recently added to our city recreational facilities municipal golf links, a municipal tennis course (municipal as respects the advantaged classes) and there has been some talk of establishing a municipal auto camping rendezvous for the accommodation and comfort of passing auto tourists. Now these things may all be necessary adjuncts to a progressive city, like ours, but the pity and shame of it is that we have not, with the exception of four playgrounds in public school yards, one municipal tree, under whose refreshing hows the Negro, whom we have with us always, may feel free to go and seek the solace of shade on a scorching summer's day. Not one green and shady spot where the colored mother may take her warm, fretting babe for a cooling breeze, provided by the municipality. But, we believe with Mr. Pitl, that there is a substantial body of right thinking citizens in our city, who have a clear conception of social justice and wish to see it courageously administered in the affairs of civic life. The conditions as described in his letter constitute a shame to the right-thinking of these citizens. They are a challenge to their conception of social justice and fair-play. We are counting on them to accept the challenge, and with their support make it possible for our Director of Public Welfare to proceed with his program of increased recreational facilities for all Norfolk citizens. Changed Sentiment Towards Tuskegee Institute There is a very general belief in certain quarters that the sentiment of some of the Southern white people has radically changed towards Tuskegee Institute and the Tuskegee idea of preparation for service, since the death of Dr. Washington, but this is not true. There was a very great sentiment against Tuskegee Institute and its idea of preparedness for service, which is substantially the idea of the Hampton Institute, among a certain sort of Southern whites, those who are disposed to make most trouble, and are tolerated by those who do not want any trouble, long before the death of Dr. Washington, and it itself showed in ways, in and near the town of Tuskegee, which kept the Institute people in a state of mind. Dr. Washington had always in his mind the possibility of trouble of some sort and sacrificed much in the effort to keep down the bad feeling and possible trouble. That the National Sociological Society, of Washington, organizes twenty years ago, to study cause under racial friction in the United States," should require scientific deliberation is more than we can see. The formula of the "bree therhood of man" and "a square deal" require no such amount of energy. It is a simple one and that can be preached without fear as to the outcome. When the people of the South having become spiritually awakened to the fact that contenance is the only security against revolution, and that men who are humiliated, beaten and discriminated against because of a color not of their selection, can Since the death of Dr. Washington the sentiment against Tuskegee Institute and its idea has constantly grown worse. Dr. Moton has not the diplomatic temperament of Dr. Washington; he is not as smooth and soft spoken, nor as good mixer, and a certain sort of white persons do not like it. They have no good feeling for Negroes who show a manly and self-sufficient disposition, who go about making a way for themselves with no more than incidental dependence upon white folks and influences—the same sort that white folks have upon black folks. The disgraceful row over the make up of the staff of the Federal Hospital for former service men, at Tuskegee Institute, is the outgrowth of the general antagonism against the Tuskegee Institute idea of preparedness for service, as correctly stated by the Elizabeth City (N. C.) Independent, quoted in the JOURNAL AND GUIDE of July 21. The educated Negro, skilled in his labor and knowing how to give as well as take orders, and who wants to sell as well as buy of others, gets in the way of the Southern planter hunting for cheap labor and the Southern storekeeper who figures to sell at his own prices to Negroes but to buy nothing of them. The white exploiters are against the Jewish traders among them on the same grounds that they are opposed to the Negro trader and independent worker. As the JOURNAL AND GUIDE maintain long ago, we have got to make our own place in the social, civil and economic life of the Nation, we can't safely allow others to fix it for us, and we have got to strive all of the time to make it as it should be, in our favor. A very wise man once said to us that he never knew a man whom he considered good enough to entrust with his liberty, with its privileges and immunities, and, while the statement is very sweeping, there is much more truth than fiction in it. We should expect the obstacles and opposition we find everywhere in seeking to exercise our rights of citizenship in making our place as we want it and as it should be, and without allowing others to arbitrarily make it for us. Obstacles and opposition should stimulate us to greater effort and not provoke fear and despair, which lead no where worth reaching. The apparent changed sentiment towards us at Tuskegee should not discourage us in the lenient; it should rather encourage us to fight the more manfully for our proper place in the sun. Proving Mencken's Charges In a recent copyrighted article Baltimore Evening Sun, Mr. Henry L. en, journalist and writer of national news, Southerner by birth and tradition, depr political and social conditions in the So the following severe language: "There is first, the South of the old g urbance, educated, civilized, tolerant, is, second, the South of the former poor trash: uncouth, ignorant, harboured, but It is this second South that has been a since Reconstruction days, and out of a cendance has flowed nine-tenths of the culties, political and social, that have been Southern people. It has steadily by down Southern politics to the level of and demagoguery; it has made a pathetic foeyness of Southern education; it has forc and inflamed race prejudice; it has corrode and degraded Southern journalism; it has duced Southern Christianity to a burial and an obscenity. This is the South of Ku-Klux Klan, of the Billy Sunday revive complete aesthetic and idocational sterile burnings and lynchings, of Blease and Voman, of prohibition and Jew-hating, of Darwinian and free silver. This is the Salas! that Northerners usually think of they think of the South at all." Many conservative people and num Southern newspapers have united in the opinion that Mr. Mencken's arrangement of was somewhat strained, but despite such opinion on the part of those who would desire to see further injury done this so by even an exposure of conditions that are too true, occasionally a witness arises to firm every charge made by the frank Mencken, as in the case of the editor of Wilmington (N. C.) News, whose violent burst of just the characteristics enunciated by Mr. Mencken appears in an article on front page of this issue of the Journal Guide, relating an exchange of thoughts between the Wilmington editor and Mayor ley, of Boston, Mass., in connection with action of the Boston mayor in naming a yeolated man this year to read the Declara of Independence on the occasion of the celebration of Independence Day in that city. If any proof was needed to strengthen give credence to the arrangement of Mencken, it is found in the line of thought pressed by the Wilmington editor. In a recent copyrighted article in the Baltimore Evening Sun, Mr. Henry L. Mencken, journalist and writer of national note, and Southerner by birth and tradition, describes political and social conditions in the South in the following severe language: "There is first, the South of the old gentry urbane, educated, civilized, tolerant. There is, second, the South of the former poor white trash: uncouth, ignorant, harbous, bullying. It is this second South that has been on top since Reconstruction days, and out of its ascendance has flowed nine-tenths of the difficulties, political and social, that have beset the Southern people. It has steadily brought down Southern politics to the level of spoils and demagoguery; it has made a pathetic buffoonery of Southern education; it has fostered and inflamed race prejudice; it has corrupted and degraded Southern journalism; it has reduced Southern Christianity to a burlesque and an obscurity. This is the South of the Ku-Klux Klan, of the Billy Sunday revival, of complete aesthetic and ideational sterility, of bornings and lynchings, of Blease and Vardaman, of prohibition and jew-batting, of anti-Darwinism and free silver. This is the South, alas! that Northerners usually think of when they think of the South at all." Many conservative people and numerous Southern newspapers have united in the opinion that Mr. Mencken's arraignment of Dixie was somewhat strained, but despite such an opinion on the part of those who would not desire to see further injury done this section by even an exposure of conditions that are all too true, occasionally a witness arises to confirm every charge made by the frank Mr. Mencken, as in the case of the editor of the Wilmington (N. C.) News, whose violent outburst of just the characteristics enumerated by Mr. Mencken appears in an article on the front page of this issue of the JOURNAL AND GUIDE, relating an exchange of thought between the Wilmington editor and Mayor Curley, of Boston, Mass., in connection with the action of the Boston mayor in naming a young colored man this year to read the Declaration of Independence on the occasion of the celebration of Independence Day in that city. If any proof was needed to strengthen or give credence to the arraignment of Mr. Mencken, it is found in the line of thought expressed by the Wilmington editor. THE PUBLIC PULSE The Only Efficient Formula Editor Journal and Guide: It is the sentiment so fearlessly and manly expressed by men like Mr. J. J. I in the Virginian-Pilot of July 25th that g a ray of optimism to the average worth wi Negro who desires to live and die in Dixie. It is the sentiment so fearlessly and humanly expressed by men like Mr. J. J. Pitt of the University of of July 25th that give a ray of optimism to the people of Negro who desires to live and die in Dixie. That the National Sociological Society, of Washington, organized twenty years ago, to study causes under racial friction in the United States," should require scientific deliberation is more than we can see. The formula of the "brotherhood of man" and a square energy. It is a simple and easy energy. It is a simple one and one that can be preached without fear as to the outcome. When the people of the South having spiritually awakened to the fact that contentment is the only security against revolution, and that men who are humiliated, beaten and discriminated against because of a color not of their selection, cannot pray, although beaten to their heart, they are not no wonder that the sage of St.reet, Woodrow Wilson, breaks his long silence in a warning article, as to perils of democracy. If the South really appreciates the new conditions, which were a few days ago demonstrated by the ject between the Methodists North and South—the result of the slave trade, the result of scientific research for any other than the simple grounds of fair play and social justice? Each race has in its make up certain peculiarities, dissimilar to others. In this, the Negro is no exception. Love, hate, sympathy, fidelity and the whole gamut of human emotions are the great men of irread vision look upon the racially turbulent seas of society and view with alarm the omnious clouds and restless waves which portended in their wake, the destruction of a nation. Rome, Greece and Russia simply repeat the wittings of history, that no nation can withstand the mastic deprivation of rights which are common to humanity. The tests of might, racial superiority not withstanding, in order to secure peace, contentment and happiness, must eventually subscribe to the simple formula of even justice right to live and enjoy the fruits of life years of toil and faithfulness, to America and her people, whether as slave holders or liberators. Christ the first democrat enunciated the doctrine of peace by advocating the brotherhood of man, and Roosevelt, twenty centuries afar, death caught the vision and spirit to courageous fight for a square deal." James M. Harrison August 2, 1923 The Crepe Myrtle Editor Journal and Guide Sir: Huntserville seems to be a good home of this beautiful flowering tree, which comes into bloom in mid-summer. Beautiful specimens are seen in the old cemeteries in full bloom, also in many yards in Huntserville. Housekeepers with good yard space especially in front, should cultivate this beautiful tree. Its growth is rapid. Of the gardens in Lindenwood and Huntserville are pretty with large blooms in yellow canna. Other small spaces of ferns and bogias are quite restful to the eye. One needs to cultivate the beautiful in flowers and plant them so that tall growing plants are nearest to the house or wall, the dwarf-plants in front. Many people are planting the umbrella plant on their sidewalks, which is not good. The umbrella tree is very pretty but is low in statue and while it makes a splenelike plant is not fit for your sidewalk, better plant maple, popular or water oak. Plant the umbrella in the back for the kids to play under. Winlow boxes are good in shelves these should be placed in the porch. These should be planted. Briefs and Spices (BY S. J. C.) Another slogan for Ford Presidential campaign: "The panacea for world ills, afford a Ford at any cost." The popular impression gains ground that a state of conna is very often mistaken for a period of prosperity. According to the latest press reports the coal situation has not improved. As usual, this may be considered as a reminder that the innocent bystander must eventually stand-by. Once we use to refer to a close race as a nip and tuck affair, in these days of record breaking, overnight bootleg distilling, a nip often means a long map without the tuck. Senator elect, Mangus Johnson, of Minnesota "wears no man's collar," favors a soldier bonus and is a real dirt farmer. Why not sound him out on the Darwin theory so as Mr. Bryan can get a line on him? According to the N e Work Age, a Southern woman parading as a divine healer, is able to pay $1,500 a week for a hall to practice her profession on Harlemites and make money. After surviving the steamship affair, how on earth does Harlem afford such extravagance? THESE TIMES The world continues to imbibe, New ways of freak reforms, While systematic forks connive, To furnish stress and storms. Against the vices of mankind, 'Tis well to legislate, And so divert our state of mind We pause and hesitate. The honey bee with many chores, In patience works away, It tolerates no shirker' fears, But toils an honest day. A lesson that is of much worth, And one of honest use, Is while we live here on this earth, Lets every one produce.

Foot Notes To African History (By THE HAMITIC LEAGUE) LITTLE 10 OF ANCIENT GREEC If you were to tell a student of the classics that Mr. Zeus, the boss god of the Greeks, had a shady complexion, the chances are he or she would throw a fit and call you Amnias. How somever, if you study the classics with your eyes open and your think machinery oil, you will soon realize that there was hardly anything else but. Take the story of little Io, frim-instance. She was a little brown scream and so pretty that she was made a priestess at the shrine of Hear. It was there that old Zeus, the head gazabo of the dicties, tamped the little checker and fee for it. It wasn't long before his wife found out why he stayed away of nights and one morning when he came home all lit up with nectar, she met him with a rolling pin a La Margie Jiges. Zeus felt that little Io wasn't safe, so her turned her into a beautiful white cow. But wifey was wise and made him give her the cow for a wedding anniversary present. Then she set the hundred eyed Argus to watch the cow. Thereupon Zeus hired Hermes to stay the Argus, and set little Io free. But wifey was wide awake. She sent a gadfly to torment Io, and she was so tormented that she wandered all over the world to escape. The wandering of Io were classic wanderings of the ancients and the tales of her adventures were told to the little kidlets thousand of years after Io was dead and the gods husted up. It was on these wandering that she ran into Prometheus, the chap who was chained to the rocks for playing a joke on the big boss. Io was just about to jump off a cliff when Prometheus saw her and begged her not to do it. He said that his mother had told him that Io was to bear a son whom descendents would one day unchain him from the rock. So little I changed her mind and went to Egypt where the magicians changed her back to a pretty little girl. Then she married and had a little black baby whom she named Epaphus. She was a messy girl, the great Greek dramatist says, "he was touch born, and swarthy of hge." In other words, he was some colored, as it were. The Whatnot Column BY ROBERT P. EDWARDS (For A. N. P.) 22-What became of the Temple of Diana? The fourth wonder of the world was the temple of Diana, at Ephecus, built in the fourth century before Christ and destroyed by the Goths in 262 A. D. This magnificent building became a sort of museum for the reception of objects of art, and eventually a place of sanctuary for criminals and fugitives, who could not be harmed while under the protection of Diana. Even men with fresh blood on their hands, were safe within its pagan walls. 23-Who is the greatest Negro scientist? More than one hundred varieties of products from peanuts ranging from the purest of milks for the sickroom to ink, useful for writing sketching have been discovered by Prof. G. W. Carver of Tuskegee Institute. He has demonstrated many of his experiments before the Congressional Ways and Means Committee at Washington. Prof. Carver is 53 years old, and his slave. He was born in diamond, Md., and is educated began at the age of 15. His High School training was received in Minneapolis. He is a graduate of the Iowa Agricultural College, with the degrees of A. B., and A. M., and was a student for six years of former Secretary of Agriculture Wilson. 24—Who was Teussaint L'. Ouverture? Toussaint L'Ouverture, of Haiti, was a slave and the son of slaves, yet in 1793, when his country was invaded by British and Spanish armies, he showed all the qualities of a remarkable leader. His natural force of intellect and high character lent him an influence to arouse his countrymen to drive his invaders, and under his generalship in 1794 he was accomplished. For some years Toussaint governed Haiti in the main France, displaying extraordinary political genius comparable with that of the greatest statesmen of history. Order, peace and prosperity were restored to a land that had been blackened with ruins and stained with blood. In 1501 he died in Haiti what Napoleon had done in France—set aside a Republic. But Napoleon, unwilling to be imitated, struck, dispatched an army, and finally, peaceable means Toussaint was hurt into the hands of the French Commander He was died on, died in a dugout in 1808. Leaderless Haiti, however, fought for independence, and won NEXT WEEW'S WHATNOTS 25. What became of the Mauso- leum of Halicarnassus? 26. What bank was awarded is- placed in the 3rd U. S.

THE SHAME OF AMERICA THE SHAME OF AMERICA (From the Cleveland Plain Dealer) "One of the measures certain to be pressed early in the next session of Congress is the Dyer Bill designed to combat lynching. This Bill, it will be remembered, was passed by the last house but lost in the Senate when the Democratic minority filibustered. Interests behind the proposal have not lost their imminence of another national campaign to help get it through." "The Annual Report of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, recently published, emphasizes a new that lynching remains the shame of America and that federal law is needed for its eradication. At least sixty-one cases of lynching are authenticated as occurring in 1922, about one-third of them for the actual cause and the rest ranging factually to trivial offenses. Not a single lynching occurred last year in a Northern border State; this time the crime is confined to the South. Texas was chief of offender with sixteen lynchings, Georgia and Mississippi being next in order. From the beginning of the agitation for federal assistance for the suppression of lynching the states most guilty of this crime against civilization have furnished the backbone of the opposition to the granting of such assistance. It was a flibuster by Southern Democrats that prevented Senate action on the Dyer Bill in the last progress. Not able to stop lynching, divided these States nevertheless, through their spokesmen at Washington, reject the offer of assistance embodied in this sound, hummable reasonable legislative proposal. "The Secretary of the Association for Advancement however, refuses to concede that either party is solely responsible for the defeat of the Dyer Bill. In a letter to George B. Christian, Secretary to President Harding, last December the Secretary of the Association declared that the Republican leadership really accepted defeat at the opening of the fight. Colored people and many white people as well (Associated Negro Press) No... That is, the most common sense answer is no. Nobody ever yet "demonstrated" a gun. Have you noticed that you can hear a ghost, but that you can hear about them? That you can see a ghost, but that you can see the man who saw the man saw the man who said he saw ghost? Yes, all ghost takes a second-hand stories. Sir Arthur Conen Doyle: Well, Mariaria could also fool "Sherlock Holmes," but she has certainly fooled Sirthur. Thurston the Great can drive more "ghosts" in one theatrical performance than the Doyle can produce in a year. Sirthur the ghosts, those stare ghosts, when a man is failing and posed to be failing, he is and truthful, just as a man acts a fool intentionally or for a nite purpose, may be a very man. Of all the ghosts he never heard about, those of the atrical magician come nearest demonstrating their existence. Do not fear the darkness. darkness is much emptier than lighted spaces. The most pessimist treacherous and safest in all this world is the Grave in All the grave yards in the Big States have much fewer than Queen and Church Street. He is either and in perfect harmony all the rest of the faeries. Now, Commenceme: If I lived in another world and I come back to this one, do you pose any mother's ghost away from her hungry and the child? Whenever anybody stalk that child, would not any more ghost appear in some four frighten that cruel person? If were possible, a mother's ghost would return either from hell or hell to defend an abused child. And any decent father ghost would never murder a son would come back to judge—especially when some innocent person was about to be baptised for it, maybe the mum's own innocent wife or son or son or mother. If coming to were possible, no consideration can keep a ghost away under such circumstances. Nothing could be more unpleasant the dead than to be afraid of when they are much less hard than any of the living. Of course, nobody can prove there are not ghost or that it will never appear. One hundred years, ago people would not be convinced that wireless communication dried years ago people should have believed anything of the wireless telegraphy has been obstructed. The burden of pre-empt such cases is on the affirmation not on the negative. If I want claim that I can change iron gold, it is not other people's to prove that I cannot. The ghost—makers must put their case so that any man of mind can understand it. So I cannot be failed so completely. No brave man can moment's worry about their gender in the closet amid dark spaces, the grave yard and the "Sleepy Hollows." The most reasonable proposal up to date it; There are no goals. feel that if the Republicans been sufficiently concerned and the courage to stand firm, it sentiment throughout the one would have rallied to them would have made the position (Democratic filibusterers) cure. "It is time to stop playing pies over the issue of lynx Southern states cannot or will stop this mob murder. The foe government should do so. The Bill should be one of the important enactments of the Congress." MARY S. PEAKE This is the centennial year Mary S. Peake, who was born Norfolk, Va., in 1822.
