Norfolk Journal and Guide Great Preparation For Tidewater Fair NORFOLK'S POPULATION White ___101,577 Colored ___ 57,512 Total __159,089 VOL. XXIII No. 39 SUFFOLK PLANS TO ENTERTAIN BIGGEST CROWD Various Educational Features; High Class Attractions and Spectacular Entertainment Procured. PROMINENT SPEAKERS ON THE PROGRAMME Suffolk, Va., Sept. 26—Activities being manifested by the officials of the Tidewater Fair Association indicate that the fourteenth annual event of the association to be held here October 15, 17, 18 and 19, will elapse the very best efforts ever put forth by this popular and well known fair organization. The Tidewater Fair is a source of pride to its officials and to the Suffolk community in general and annually about this time of the year the people of that city engage feverishly in making preparations to entertain the enormous crowd of visitors in an excelling manner. This fair has enjoyed thirteen successful exhibitions, yet the managers have never ceased their quest for new features, new attractions and an increase of its educational benefits. It has become a fixture of importance in this state and eastern North Carolina and people within a radius of two or three hundred miles entertain pleasant anticipations of the opening of the Tidewater Fair at Suffolk. One of the notable features of this fair, although each year there are times when several thousand persons are on the grounds in a single day, is that it has been remarkably free from disorder or disturbances of any nature. This is due mainly to the high character of the men under whose supervision the event operates, and in some measure it is due to the genuine public respect and appreciation it enjoys. The mechanic, farmer, business man, artisan, educator, preacher, laborer, home maker and every person engaged in productive industry in Virginia feels it encumbent upon them to individually declare a holiday for the purpose of attending the Suffolk fair. In all probabilities the exhibits this year will present the greatest collection of handicraft, products of the soil and animal husbandry ever assembled by a race organization anywhere. In the catalogue are listed entries for every conceivable product of the home, garden, farm and shop. And to augment the vast source of education presented in the exhibits, the services of some of the states' most prominent thinkers have been engaged to deliver daily addresses. Among these are Bishop Plummer, of Belleville, Va., and J. T. Cross, County Demonstrator, who will speak on opening day, Dr. J. M. Armstead, of Portsmouth; and Hon. William M. Reid, Grand Chancellor of Pythians of Virginia, will speak on the second day, which has been designated as Educational Day. The Uniform Rank of K, of P., will stage a competitive drill on the same day. Home Coming Day is October 19, the third day of the fair, when J. Finley Wilson, Grand Exalted Ruler Elks of the World, will be the principal speak- er. The fourth day is set aside as Women's Day, when Mrs. T. J. Johnson, of Suffolk, and Mrs. Lizie Jenkins, Hampton Institute State Agent, will speak on subjects of perennial interest to women, especially stressing Home Economics. Friday, October 19 at 3 o'clock the annual Babies Contest will be held. This contest is a scientific movement to insure better babies and a race. It consists of entering and examining and awarding prizes to babies of three years or less on exactly the same basis or principles that are applied to live stock shows. It teaches parents how to improve children already born and to protect those yet unborn. Annual horse racing at the Suffolk fair enjoys national fame. Records have been made and broken on this race course. It is one of the spectacular entertaining features and indications point to lively competition on the track this year. This is a daily event and one of the most enjoyable. Spectacular and weird fire works will be a nightly feature as usual and notable improvements have also been made in this line. Free acts daily will add to the entertainment of the crowds. The officials have prepared for the largest attendance this year in the history of the association. The fair grounds are located on the state highway and are easily accessible by auto and horse drawn vehicles. Several railroads enter Suffolk and the town may be easily reached from any point in the state and North Carolina. Persons desiring to remain longer than one day will find a most congenial populace in Suffolk and accommodations can be had at very, hospitable rates. EIGHT PAGES Fund Campaign Committee Is Active The Community Chest Campaign Committee is perfecting plans for the drive to be instituted in November. The appeal will be addressed to all citizens in the City. It would be well for the public to make a decision now as to the amount of support it will give this effort. All are, or will be acquainted with the purpose of this Campaign. It should not be necessary for canvassers to indulge in a long dissertation to convince prospects of the merit of the cause.. Be prepared to help support our charities. AMERICA RIDICULED BY RUSSIAN PAPER Comic Journal Carries Front Page Cartoon Of U. S. and Africa In Stake Burning. New York, N. Y., Sept. 27—In an interesting article on how the Russian people regard America which appears in The New Republic of September 19, Arthur Ruhl.

One, representing a group of African cannibals seated around a fire waiting for a helmeted white man to be roasted, was labelled 'In Barbarous Africa.' The other, representing a Negro burning at the stake, surrounded by a mob of gleeful whites, was labelled 'In Cultured America.'

The North Carolina State Fair is the premier colored fair of the state and is annually attended by several thousand persons. It has proved of a special benefit to farmers and people of the rural districts, as its educational features are stressed along agricultural lines and home economics. Then, too, it is a great recreational event when the farmers meet, and exchange talks on crops and seasonal happenings. Dr. John H. Love, president of the state fair is also president of the National Association of Colored Fairs and has done a creditable work in promoting a higher standard for fairs under the management of colored people.

Shaw as student, minister, physician, husband, father, race champion and leader for rights. Prayer was by Rev. B. W. Swain of Zion Church, Scripture reading by Rev. E. E. Thompson of Massachusetts Ave. Baptist Church. Hymns were read by Rev. F. C. Brookins of Trinity Baptist, Rev. W. H. Dabbs of Concord Baptist and Rev.

Jeroy Ferguson, of St. Cyprian's Episcopal from the Bay State Medical Society by Dr. T. W. Patrick and from the National Rights League by Rev. B. W. Swain.

Several fraternal bodies had seals and took part, others could not have seats, but filled past the open casket, which was then closed till at the grave. The body had hain in state since 9 and thousands had passed to see his face for the last time. Wm. Monroe Trotter was with the family, broken in grief.

OF COLUMBUS Organization Pledges Support to Cardinal Gibbons Institute As Memorial to Late Prelate And Gift To Race. ALL KNIGHTS ASSESSED TO RAISE NEEDED FUNDS The Cardinal Gibbons Institute received the full indorsement of the Knights of Columbus at its annual convention held in Montreal August 7th to 9th, 1923 and also a definite promise of financial aid which will bring to it early in 1924 between $35,000 and $40,000 The money is to be raised by a national assessment of five cents per capita to be added to the next annual assessment. The plan for this national school for colored youth was presented to the Knights of Columbus Supreme Board of Directors by Mr. William S. Aumen, of Baltimore, Past State Deputy of Maryland; and one of the Vice-Presidents and a member of the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees of the Cardinal Gibbons Institute. The Supreme Board, after due deliberation, recommended the above assessment; the recommendation was approved by the Committee on Good of the Order, and adopted by the Convention. The following is quoted from the report of the Committee on Good of the Order: "The Supreme Board of Directors referred to the committee a proposition sponsored by Brother William S. Aumen, Past State Deputy of Maryland and Admiral William S. Benson, having to do with the erection and maintenance of a memorial to His Eminence James Cardinal Gibbons, to be known as the Cardinal Gibbons Institute and to be devoted to the higher education of Negroes. It was pointed out to the committee that this institute was one of the great works conceived by the late Cardinal and one which was very dear to him but which unfortunately he was unable to complete. As a memorial to His late Eminence, His Grace Archbishop Curley has sanctioned the appeal for aid in continuing this work, which perhaps will be the one and only memorial erected to the memory of our late beloved Cardinal, and as a result, the Supreme Board have been appealed to for financial aid in this enterprise. Therefore, in the belief that the Knights of Columbus can ill-afford to remain aloof from this movement to direct a fitting memorial to His Eminence Cardinal Gibbons or from any project which will uplife the Catholic Negro who has so often been neglected by the more fortunate members of the Church, this committee concurs in the recommendation contained in the resolution of the Board of Directors that five cents per capita be added to the next annual assessment to assist the Cardinal Gibbons Institute and which resolution was referred to this committee with the request that it be reported on to the Supreme Council." From the above paragraph it will be seen that in the splendid action taken by the Knights of Columbus for the Cardinal Gibbons Institute two motives predominated: The desire to assist in the movement for the advancement of the colored Catholics of the country; and the desire to assist to perpetuate the name of the great Cardinal for whom the Institute will stand as a memorial. Cardinal Gibbons purchased 200 acre farm as a site for the school. The Board of Trustees, with Archbishop Curley as its president, voted to name the new school the Cardinal Gibbons Institute and dedicate it as a memorial to the late Cardinal for his work for the Colored race. It is the first institution to bear his name. Probably no other school as a memorial would be so pleasing to him who always, as a true priest of God, worked for the welfare of the American Negro. The interest which he was awakening among the Catholics of the country in behalf of their colored brethren is just beginning to manifest itself, and in the next few years greater activity than every before will be shown by the white Catholics for the Colored men. Other national Catholic organizations are seriously considering assisting the Institute by donations or assessments. It is confidently expected that several will follow the plan of the Knights of Columbus in a five cent national assessment. If these expectations are realized, actual buildings can be erected during 1924 and the school opened in the fall. MATERNITY HOSPITAL KING MUTUAL LIFE PLANS FORMING ENTERS THE FIELD DEATH CLAIMS WM.W.WILCOX RACE'S FRIEND Tuskegee and Alumni Mourn Death of Chairman Of Board of Trustees; Was A Splnedid Educator. DR. ANSON PHELPS STOKES HIS SUCCESSOR Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Sept. 26—The announcement of the passing of the Honorable William W. Willcox, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Tuskegee Institute, occasioned much grief at the Institute Wednesday, September 19. Mr. Willcox has been in ill health for the past two years but his death was a distinct shock to the students and members of the faculty. Dr. Robert R. Moton, Principal, attended the funeral which was held in New York City, Friday afternoon. Dr. Anson Phelps Stokes, former Secretary of Yale University, succeeds Dr. Willcox as Chairman of the Board of the Trustees. For seventeen years Mr. Willcox has been a member of the Board of Trustees and succeeded Mr. Seth Low as Chairman in 1916. Both as a member of the Board and as Chairman he proved devoted to the Institute and was at all times devising plans to develop the work and to increase the usefulness of the Institute. In his passing the school has lost a sincere and devoted friend as well as an interested Trustee. His loss will be mourned by graduates and former students all over the country. As a Trustee of the Tuskegee Institute and as President of the New York Board of Education, Mr. Willcox proved-himself a stautch friend to the race and on every occasion in private and public utterances he expressed confidence and belief in the future of the Negro race and was a firm champion of rights for the race—never missing an opportunity to voice his opinion against any injustice perpetrated against a against the Negro or praise any achievement of any member of the race. Members of the Negro race in this section and in the North will join the Institute officials and other friends in mourning his loss. Colored Physicians, Nurses And Mothers Sponsoring Movement To Establish Institution.

In fact, it is to be considered one of the activities of the center. Meetings are being held regularly and it is expected that the committee will go into permanent organization soon. Mrs. Dixon is temporary president, Mrs. M. B. Loe is vice-president and Mrs. Lavania Griggs, secretary.

EX·SHERIFF ARRESTED ON MURDER CHARGE Accused of Killing Colored Man Several Years Ago, R. H. Ross To Face Trial. New Bern, N. C., Sept. 25—Deputy sheriff R. H. Ross has fallen on hard times. A few weeks ago he was dismissed from the service of the state by Judge Horton of the Superior Court upon conviction of assaulting an aged colored man with the hutt of his gun and ordered to pay his victim $235 to cover the cost of medical expenses sustained as a result of injuries inflicted by the deputy sheriff. At this time Judge Horton sternly reprimanded him saying that he had been guilty of a most brutal crime and was unfit to be an officer. Now it has been developed that Ross is the same man-wanted for the murder of a Negro in Jones county several years ago. Capilla has been issued for his arrest and solicitor Jesse Davis has instructed the sheriff of Jones county to forward the papers to sheriff J. D. Williams of this county. The crime of which Ross is accused took place several years ago, but do to the fact that Ross could not be located when the case was called for trial Congressman Abernethy, who was then solicitor took a "nol pros with leave" and no further action was taken until recently when it was discovered that Ross was here.

BLOODHOUNDS TRAIL SCENT TO REID'S HOME Taroboro, N. C., Sept., 25—With her skull crushed and showing evidences of having met with the foulest murder after being criminally assaulted, the blood-stained body of Miss Martha Bynum, 18, was found in a cotton patch in the rear of her home by her father, Turner Bynum, late Saturday afternoon. The dead girl's family upon returning home a little after sunset missed her from the premises. A search was instituted which was not pursued long before strange tracks and torn up earth in the back yard indicated that there had been a physical encounter in the rear of the house. From this spot the search was continued along a path evidently made by the dragging of a burden in the direction of the cotton patch. At the end of this trail was found the body of the dead girl. An examination of the body revealed that the young woman had been criminally assaulted and then murdered by being brained with a heavy blunt instrument. Her torn clothes and scratches upon her limbs indicated that the girl had sacrificed her life in a desperate attempt to protect her honor conditions in the yard indicated that she had fought her attacker until brutally struck down. The police were immediately notified. Bloodhounds were procured and taking up a 'ascent from the strange tracks the man chasers made a dash directly to the home of James Reid, about a mile away. There they balked and refused to go farther. A warrant was issued for Russell Reid, brother of James Reid. EXCELSIORS HONOR "WAGGY" SMALL The Excelsior Band, Norfolk's finest, stood in Elmwood cemetery Tuesday afternoon and dolefully blared the tune of "Lead Kindly Light" as the body of a white man was being lowered in its final resting place. The band had not been hired to add to the pretentiousness of interning the remains of some member of the nobility, high official, nor potentate, but was there paying honor to the memory of a man, a man who had gone thru life with a soul as white as his skin, and who in years gone by before infirmities and afflictions acclaimed his usefulness, idolized that band. James (Waggy) Small's body was being placed at rest and "Waggy" Small in life had only two hobbies, and these two possessed his very life. They were the Excelsior Band and the Norfolk baseball team. Waggy Small, a man whose family connections were obscure, for no relatives were at his bier; a man poor in this world's goods, but with a soul so rich that it had given cheer to thousands upon as many occasions, died in Williamsburg Hospital without means even to pay for a burial, but with friends enough, both white and colored to see that his funeral and burial were all that he could have expected when he lived. Never was there an occasion, years ago, when the Excelsior Band was on parade that "Waggy" was not seen among its admiring followers. He knew each player by name and they all knew him. He was an inspiration to them and they made him happy and the Excelsior played over his remains as the last tribute of honor to a friend. Citizens of all classes and creeds laid flowers on his grave and the largest among the many wreathes was the one presented by the Excelsior Band. year and each one expressed genuine confidence in the greater opportunities yet to be had by Southern Negro business men. Mr. Charles Tucker, well known in Norfolk and who a tone time was connected with the editorial department of this paper, was in the city a few days this week. Mr. Tucker is a medical student at the University of Minnesota and is winning some laurels there. Religious News And Church Activities PAGE TWO Se a SUNDAY SCHOOL . LESSON BY REY. J. 5.

The Vamp and the Virgin A Serial Story of Negro Life and Love The Virgin's friends would have gasped if they could have seen him the following Saturday night. They could not conceive of him in any such place as a saloon. But there he was, on Darmouth Street, with the saloon doors closing behind him and his eyes and throat still burning with the first liquor he had ever tasted. His friends would have been still more astonished if they had known what he intended to do next. By AUBREY BOWSER D TO office 19-29-44 ELEVENT In Quest of The Virgin's friends would be seen him the following Saturne receive of him in any such place on Darmouth Street, with the him and his eyes and throat so he had ever tasted. His friend astonished if they had known For several nights after the dance, at which Boatrix had recalled her true nature as a common filibert and filibert flair, the Virgin had tried himself to sleep. Then his mood had changed to bitterness. He told himself that he had been victimized because of his inexperience. If he was going to deal with the world like other men, he must do a other men did. Virtually made him a lamb to monger, he had made up his mind to be lamb, with fangs and claws on his feet. He knew all the things he had heard the other boys talking about. So now he walked slowly down Dartmouth Street looking keenly at the passing women. It was rather early for the daughters of the night to be out, but now and then he thought he saw some one. Just in front of the public library a girl put herself squarely in in his path, with such a rugish, challenging look that he paused. For a moment they looked each other in the eye. At first he stood still, all the blood in him roused by the spell which that kind of woman casts over inexperienced boys and snake cast over birds, the shuddered and drew back, a stranger passing over him; it was his life time of disciple, percept, purity. "For the love of Mike!" said the woman. "A mamma's boy a mollycoddle!" The words stung his vanity and he paused again. The woman walked slowly on, swinging herself, beckoning him with her tilted head and sidelong fire, of her eyes. He stepped forward and would have followed her, when suddenly he heard his name called. Another woman came running down the library steps, almost into his arms. "Why, Mr. Virgin," she cired. "I do declare." "Miss Worth!" he said with a guilty start. "Miss Worth, indeed. I'm on my way to the Beethoven concert at Symphony Hall. Won't you come along? Oh, I know you won't refuse—will you? This is a leap year and I'm privileged to ask you." The Virgin was still watching the other woman from the corner of his eye. Then Laura ran her warm arm under his and, mumbling his consent, he walked to Boyston Street and boarded a trolley with her. In fifteen minutes they were seated in the auditorium of Symphony Hall. For two hours they sat there, breathlessly drinking in the deathless music, the silver allegros, brooding adagios of the symphonies, and the grand sunbursts of of crescendos. Then came the "Moonlight. Sonata," with its other real beauty. They sat there, shoulder to shoulder, almost check to check, her father in one. Not with the music we ended the video, that their heads had kept to each other. They came out of the ballroom in front of the crowd and took a trophy for Laura's home. The Virginia fell fathed again, and shouted loudly Laura did not concede her hosting for him and be law that her beauty was of the kind that did not strike one of the first, but grow with acquaintances. "Oh, look!" cried Laura, suddenly, "There's Bentryx." A trophy bound in the opposite direction had slapped Bentryx and in it sat Bentryx and the freshman, Fonner. The Virginia shook her arm. Bentryx was so busy imparting Fonner that she didn't see them and in my instance the bell jerked and the trophy passed on. I were urged to the Virginia.

Sig's full of fire, beauty, magnificent she can't help it. She's the most wonderful girl I know, and she says what you love, call on the level [he] has. Then stop it!" he erich, rather roughly. Laura's praise of Beatrix had lured him, and made him feel the difference between the two. he thought of it first coming with Beatrix and his second, the amorous song, the wild skies and the sun the sunny, and a deal of hypocrisy, in which she could meet him on the street and get him Chase as if nothing had happened. And in the very presence of the man for whom she had betrayed him! His heart sank in disgust as he wondered what lie she was telling Ferner now to account for her hypocrisy. His first evening with Laura shone in contrast. He had been lifted out of himself, inspired, strengthened. He looked down at her upturned, trusting face, and in his imagination the face of Beatrix appeared beside her. It made Beatrix look cheap. But it was the idea of a real girl like Laura envying a girl like Beatrix that grated on him, and in his disgust he cut her praise short. "But why shouldn't I envy her, Virgin?" said Laura, "what girl wouldn't envy Beatrix? All of us do." "I don't mind the rest of them doing it," he said, not realizing that his tone and words were rather俏讳ory, "but I don't want to see you doing it. Laura did not ask him why. She only turned her face away lest she see too much. They walked along in silence till they reached Laura's house, then he burst forth again. "The idea of a girl like you envying anybody like her." "Of course," she said, meekly, "if you don't think I ought to I won't."

Paramount Records SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER, 29 1923 SPORTS AMUSEMENTS CONDUCTED BY P. BERNARD YOUNG, JR. NORFOLK FOOTBALL TEAMS MERGE NORFOLK FOOTBALL TEAMS MERGE City To Have A Representative Grid Squad Under Competent Leadership. A meeting of the combined teams of colored football players met in the Metropolitan Bank Monday evening and merged themselves into a first class team, the object being to secure a real team to represent the city on the gridiron. Some of the stars of the representative teams of the city were present, and approved of the change, recognizing the fact that Norfolk can support one good club. Attorney J. M. Harrison, himself an old athlete of renown, is coaching the team, and is ready to entertain games of from semi-professional teams in the country. To show that merit alone will count, no captain has been named, and as yet, a new name for the club has not been selected. The club has been engaged in practice for the past two weeks, and a general weeding out process has begun in order to put one one of the cleanest and fastest teams that has represented the city of Norfolk for many years. Dates for games can be arranged by addressing the manager, J. M. Harrison, Metropolitan Bank and Trust Building, Norfolk. Chicago New Center For Record Making America's musical center is moving westward. So many Race stages and songs stars are now appearing in Chicago that the New York Recording Laboratories, makers of the famous Paramount Race Records, have temporarily shifted their recording offices from New York to Chicago. All this week the Paramount Blues stars, famous dance orchestras and religious singers will "do their stuff" in the recording studios. And shortly after, their new Paramount Records will appear on the market. Idu Cox, world famous singer, is making a large number of new Blues. So is Monette Moore, she of the "moonin Blues" voice.

Dunbar High Eleven Rapidly Developing Baltimoreans Will Seek To Vanquish Virginia High School Squads This Season. Baltimore, Md.-Monday Coach Gibson made a call for football candidates, which was readily answered by 40 cager lovers of the sport. Among the candidates were several veterans of the 1922-squad, including captain Mack, Roberts, Paul, Brooks, Troy, Dixon, Pinkney and Harmon. The practice for the week consisted of light work-outs and signal drill. The outlook for the coming season is for "Victory," that is judging from the spirit being manifested by the team and the manner in which Mack, Paul, Roberts, Dixon and Harmon are going after the pigskin. For the past few years the Baltimore High School team was followed by a jinx, but the jinx was buried with the name Baltimore High. The squad reporting to coach Gibson is resolved that the name Douglass will be translated to mean "undefeatable" this football season. The team faces one of the hardest schedules it has had in a number of years. The Baltimoreans will invade Newport News October 26 with the avowed purpose of avenging a 5 to 0 defeat handed them by the hard driving Huntingtonians in the monumental city last season. The tentative schedule is as follows: October 19, Manassas at Baltimore; October 26, Huntington at Newport News; November 2, Dunbar High of Washington at Baltimore; November 9, Cambridge High at Washington, D. C.; November 23, Union Street High at Hampton. ST. PAUL IN FINE TRIM FOR SEMINARY CLASH Varsity Runs Amuck With Second Team; Walker Certain To Land Old Berth. Lawrenceville, Va.—After two weeks of gruelling training careful instruction, and persistent practice, St. Pauli's 1928 machine is in fine trim for the Virginia Seminary clash. The Tiger-Dragon battle this year promises to be a thriller, and a record-breaking crowd is expected to witness it. The tentative varsity outfit inhibited the second team in their fray last week when the latter successfully impersonated the Seminary boys. Straight, hard football was exercicing to the sturdy second team which played perfectly the style of football characteristic of the Lynchburgers. The boys have been carefully drilled in all the fundamentals of football, and the rules of the oval game. The offensive work of the entire squad is excellent. Next week will be devoted mainly to defensive plays. Coach Douglas has definitely decided not to name the team to start against Seminary until a few minutes before the combat. There are no casualties, and everybody looks like a world beater. Through dint of hard work many of the new men have advanced to a commanding position in the pigskin ranks; and several dark horses may be found in the line-up that begins the game for St. Paul when "Dock" Morrison sounds the referee's whistle on the afternoon of the 6th Proximo. Walker, St. Paul's stellar quarterback, is certain to land his old borth. He is in tip-top form. While Cooke, Collins, and Williams are splendid generals and versatile players and showing up remarkably well, Walker maintains his previous margin of superiority. His off-tackle bucks are good, and he is calling the signals rapidly and accurately, and he is playing a strong, consistent game.

After the ceremony, which took place in Pasadena, in a tea room where a year before Mr. Ingram had met Miss Terry, the two returned to Los Angeles, saw three picture shows and went to work the following morning on "The Prisoner of Zenda" at the Metro studios. This picture is a screen version of Anthony Hope's novel, which Edward Rose has dramatized. MANHATTAN Metro features, Vitagraph and First National are billed for the Manhattan next week. Constance Talmadge in "Good Reference," The "Conquering Power," Catherine McDonald in "Social Values," with Ruth Roland in "Hammed Valley" and the "Range Pirate" are the headliners for the week, and every one a thriller.

The fans have demanded clean football and in answer to their demands, we have the Norfolk Athletic Club representing the professionals, the Virginia Rose Stars representing the amateur division and the Booker T. Washington High School representing the Collegiate division. Porstmouth And Elizabeth City Split Elizabeth City, N. C.—Royal Giants of Portsmouth and Elizabeth City Giants ended a five game series this week. Three games were played in Norfolk and two in Elizabeth City, each team winning two of the series.

Coleman, All-American tackle and a large number of letter men of last years championship team, donned football togs at the call of the Hampton coaches, Chas. H. Williams and Gideon E. Smith, which was issued for the 22nd of September. The new material is very promising and a hard and well fought battle for varsity berths is certain to be held in the remaining days before the first game and thereafter. The first game is with Morgan College. This is the second time the Marylanders will invade the lower peninsula of Virginia to play the "Seasiders." Though Morgan lost last year, keen competition and a hard battle are expected. St. Paul plays the second game at Hampton October 20th. This is sure to be an excellent game. Va. N. I. I, plays the third game on Hampton's schedule at Hampton October 27th. This is sure to be a fight to finish, as Hampton remembers her one defeat of last season at the hands of this team. The next game is with the Lincoln "Lions" at Baltimore (Tentative) November 4th. It will be held at Lincoln if not at Baltimore. This is another game worth seeing—between the winner of the Howard-Lincoln game and the winner of the intercollegiate championship. The other games are: November 10th Shaw at Raleigh, November 17th, Howard at Hampton, and Thanksgiving, Union at Richmond. The Howard game is anxiously awaited by all followers of football.

A large attendance is expected at this game. This is the first meeting of these teams on Armstrong Field. The field is in good condition and an iron fence is being erected and will be completed for the first game. Indication point to a great season for the fighting "Seasiders." Hamptonians everywhere are waiting in tense anticipation for the thud of the pigskin and the shrill of the referee's whistle. Although the eligibility rules have taken for the time being such promising candidates as N. S. Paterson, T. Wooden, Wm. Dean, C. Frye, the David Burrel, and Wilder, the coaches are confident of producing a strong team. Among the new recruits are many high school stars. Some of them are: Butter, Wilberforce, John, Ky. State, Kennedy, Langston University, Pollard, Newwalk High, Fletcher, Kansas, Lee, Lexington High. Other high school stars are Hulsinger, Dugson, Clifford, and a number of others. The only place without a veteran contender is that made vacant by E. L. "Red" Dabney. Oscar Pindle is slated for that berth. New men must show real football to replace the letter men of last year's team. For two hours in the afternoon the men were carried through varied and strenuous conditioning exercises. After the workout there were smiles of satisfaction on the faces of the coaches. This week will be a continuation of the football program. Webb To Coach The Virginia Stars The Virginia Rose Stars, the football department of the Virginia Rose Social Club have secured the services of Mr. Harvey Webb, Norfolk's premier ex-quarterback, and the most progressive of all the local coaches, to coach them for the season of 1923.

LINCOLN ANNOUNCES A HEAVY SCHEDULE Will Take on Shaw University Eleven at Norfolk November 19; Big Five on List. Dr. W. G. Alexander, Graduate Manager Lincoln University, Pa.-All details for the present football season have been completed and Coach Young has the big task of developing the "Lion's" and "Cubs" for the important part they are to perform in order that the plans arranged may be carried out successfully. The schedule for the season is as follows: October 6, Bordentown at Lincoln; October 13, Harrisburg "Y" at Harrisburg October 20, Morgan学院 at Baltimore; October 27, West Virginia at Charleston, W. Va.; November 3, Hampton at Baltimore; November 10, St. Paul at Lincoln; November 19, Shaw at Norfolk; November 29, (Thanksgiving, Day) Howard at Philadelphia (National League Park.) Those who criticized Lincoln last year for her schedule will have ample cause for more criticism this year, for the schedule is certainly a "heavy" one. Institute, Hampton, St. Paul, Shaw and Howard will certainly afford enough "meat" for the Lions to feast on and Coach "Lissy" Young will need to be a master dentist and doctor too, in order to prepare the teeth and digestion of the "Jungalers" for such a sumptuous but irritating diet. The more important changes in the schedules will be the games with Hampton at Baltimore and Shaw at Norfolk. Graduate Manager Dr. W. G. Alexander has completed all arrangements for "The Football Classic of the Season"—The Howard Lincoln Game. The game will be played in Philadelphia at the National League Park and will be called at 2 P. M. This Park is very near the North Philadelphia station and is therefore very convenient to out of town folks who arrive near game time and wish to leave soon after the game. Prices for admission will be on the same scale as heretofore, viz: Front row boxes $2.00 per seat; rear row boxes $1.50 per seat; Grand stand seats, $1.00. Scents will be on sale beginning October 10th.

Entered as Second Class Matter at the Post Office at Norfolk, Va. Fire Prevention and Home Ownership October 8th to 12th will be observed as National Fire Prevention Week during which time the country's fire underwriters with the co-operation of State and municipal fire agencies will attempt to focus the nation's attention upon the stupendous and appalling fire wastage America suffered during the past year—a wastage aggregating more than a half billion dollars and not less than 15,000 fatalities—a wastage greater than has ever been recorded in a single year in any country at any period of history, not excluding the year of the great San Francisco fire. During observance week vigorous efforts will be made to further educate the public to the impelling necessity of assuming greater caution against fires, including the adoption of more adequate preventive measures and the acquiring of a larger acquaintance with emergency methods in dealing with incipient fires, to the end that this tremendous perennial loss which is largely preventable, might be curtailed. During the same week the Norfolk Real Estate and Stock Exchange plans to hold a Home Ownership and Better Home Exposition with the object of infusing into Norfolk's citizenry a widespread desire for home owning and better homes; and to stimulate building supply men, realtors and home building agencies to activities designed to meet, in a measure, the one million home shortage problem in the United States. Both of these campaigns have laudable purposes and the public cannot have too much education upon either. Fire prevention, home ownership and better homes are allied subjects and "enthusiasm drives" on them running concurrently in Norfolk should make for tangible benefits for our city. In fact, an ultimate effective result of a fire prevention campaign is to a certain extent contingent upon a successful infusion of a home ownership and better homes spirit among the people. Thru the natural working of the law of self preservation, reduction of fire losses will automatically follow widespread home owning and erection of better homes. It is certain that a home owning people with years of toil, association and sentiment invested in their homes will be more cautious to preserve those things against fire than a nonadic renting populace with scarcely anything to preserve. And better homes, even rented homes, provided the rent is reasonable, give rise to a finer feeling between landlord and tenant, which, in itself, goes a long way toward property preservation. Moreover, more homes to relieve the congestion in densely populated areas is a potent fire preventive measure. Incidentally, any person, or group of persons who will stage a Home Ownership and Better Homes campaign that will have the effect of causing to arise habitable living quarters in the places of the smelly ally firetrap, masquerading under the misnomer of homes with which the average American city is cursed, will not only, at once, cut the nation's annual fire outlay by half, but also contribute immeasurably to the public health, thus, becoming among humanity's greatest benefactors. Southern Representation in Convention Slashed The beginning of the end has been made in adjusting representation in the South, not on the basis of population but on the number of votes cast for delegates in convention, or in the Congress. We say in Congress, because that will follow logically and as it serves the interests of the Republican party. But in doing it finally, the basis of representation on the adult population will have to be changed. The Republican National Committee, having Lilywhitized the Republican party of the South, has now gone further in the work, by reducing the number of Southern delegates by 32. The States losing delegates are Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina and Texas. South Carolina and Mississippi have only four votes at large. Gains are allowed as follows: Florida, Maryland, Oklahoma, 2 each; Tennessee and Kentucky, 6 each; Virginia, 1. To get district delegates the new rule required that 2,500 votes be cast in each district at the last election. An additional delegate is allowed for each additional 10,000 votes in a District. In the convention next year there will be 1,036 delegates as against 984 in the convention of 1920. It is expected that there will be mighty few Afro-American delegates in the Republican National Convention next year. There will be but few if we accept tamely the rule of the Lilwhites which will not allow our delegates elected to State and District conventions to qualify. We should not allow it in any Southern State, without one of the gamest political fights we ever made. It is a time to fight. Phyllis Wheatley Garden This paper strongly advocates race, race of homes, business and diversity, arises to the end that our group may foundation from which might arise a picture that will insure the economic existence of our people along with groups of people. When, the next best thing to outstrip ship of homes, business and amusement by our group is when white people property in colored neighborhoods upon it with the hope of promotional, moral and economic well-being people as well as making a profit ourselves. There are so many instances of the building for rent to Negroes with aid to our ideals, aspirations and desires, that this paper is glad to receive where a notable departure from has been made. A case in point is Wheatley Garden at the corner and Queen streets. This assiduity and the corner store, which are vivid among the finest in the country, owners have repeatedly asserted that a building of this kind they were by a desire not only to make profit, but to contribute, as well, a decrement of colored people in Norfolk provide for them a place for whole nation and civic co-mingling equal to places anywhere. An exchange of correspondence been received parties and the owners, the owner with the following statements, which indicate that they hold a lofty concern best Negro standards: You may realize how sincere are our and how determined are our efforts point of financial strain to perfect we have undertaken for the benefit citizens of Norfolk by insuring in their Phyllis Wheatley Garden Sustainable Negro management, a man seeking not sole profit but also capturing and actually appreciating itself of the opportunities here of ordering great social service to the trust that the race citizens of Norfolk to their rare opportunity and by race amount and practice and supported by constructive they may develop at Phyllis Wheatley a technique of organization apperence that shall make for better for innocent diversion for your people and consequently greater control and advancement and for more citizens—a technique of negroes by Negroes for Negroes that make mixed communities shall accept to follow. It is felt that the work originally has been given but a good development of the improvement at Church Street and that to reap the full fruit of good repute morality and in his metication; one who is up-to-date in his metication; one who will feel a sense of making innocent amusement at this education; one whose social conscience a sense of responsibility for all Norfolk, black as well as white short, who fully realizes the trend application for the happiness and Norfolk city and Tidewater. We a well conducted and clean solemn place for the race citizens of Norfolk. There are hundreds of amusements for Negroes scattered throughout the country owned by white people and seized colored people; but we wonder how the owners were motivated by responsibility for the young Negro and men seeking innocent amusement person who caters to our trade up sentiments as expressed by the Phyllis Wheatley Garden owners deserves our purpose to the exclusion of the person whom in considering us is, how much spend? I would be a credit to our race in Norfolk race management would secure a store and auditorium in a manner by its owners. This paper strongly advocates race ownership of homes, business and diversified enterprises to the end that our group may build a foundation from which might arise a superstructure that will insure the economic growth and existence of our people along with all other groups of people. Then, the next best thing to outright ownership of homes, business and amusement places by our group is when white people who own property in colored neighborhoods improve upon it with the hope of promoting the physical, moral and economic well being of our people as well as making a profit for themselves. There are so many instances of the other race building for rent to Negroes without a regard to our ideals, aspirations and moral welfare, that this paper is glad to record instances where a notable departure from this rule has been made. A case in point is the Phyllis Wheatley Garden at the corner of Church and Queen streets. This assembly hall and the corner store, which are virtually one, are among the finest in the country; and the owners have repeatedly asserted that in erecting a building of this kind they were actuated by a desire not only to make profitable investment, but to contribute, as well, to the advancement of colored people in Norfolk; and to provide for them a place for wholesome recreation and civic co-mingling equal to similar places anywhere. In an exchange of correspondence between interested parties and the owners, the owners set forth the following statements, which seem to indicate that they hold a lofty conception of the best Negro standards: "You may realize how sincere are our desires and how determined are our efforts ever to the point of financial strain to perfect the work we have undertaken for the benefit of the race citizens of Norfolk by insuring to them in their Phyllis Wheatley Garden the best obtainable Negro management, a management seeking not solely profit but also capable of appreciating and actually appreciating and availing itself of the opportunities here offered for rendering great social service to the race. "I trust that the race citizens of Norfolk may rise to their rare opportunity and that guided by race amour propre and practical idealism and supported by constructive planning they may develop at Phyllis Wheatley Garden a technique of organization applicable everywhere that shall make for better opportunities for innocent diversion for young race people and consequently greater contentment and advancement and for more solid worth as citizens—a technique of management developed by Negroes for Negroes that all other like mixed communities shall acclaim and hasten to follow. "But it is felt that the work originally undertaken has been given but a good start in the erection of the improvement at Church and Queen street and that to reap the full fruitage so sincerely sought it is necessary to secure a lessee of good repute morally and in a business way; one who is up-to-date in his methods of operation; one who will feel a sense of responsibility for the young Negro women and men seeking innocent amusement at this most central location; one whose social conscience burhers a sense of responsibility for all citizens of Norfolk, black as well as white, a lessee in short, who fully realizes the tremendous implication for the happiness and well-being of Norfolk city and Tidewater, Virginia, in a well conducted and clean social amusement place for the race citizens of Norfolk." Now there are hundreds of amusement places for Negroes scattered throughout the country, some owned by white people and some owned by colored people; but we wonder how many of the owners were motivated by a "sense of responsibility for the young Negro women and men seeking innocent amusement." Any person who eats to our trade upon such high sentiments as expressed by the Phyllis Wheatley Garden owners deserves our patronage to the exclusion of the person whose only sentiment in considering us is, how much do Negroes spend? It would be a credit to our race in Norfolk if capable race management would secure and operate that store and auditorium in a manner suggested by its owners.

It is su There appeared in these columns last week a page advertisement of the Southern Aid Society of Virginia commemorating its thirtieth anniversary and tersely setting forth its record of achievement during this thirty year period. But that was more than an advertisement in the commercial sense; it was a page of racial inspiration; the modest reciting of a record that profoundly attests thirty years of business stability and acumen by the men at the helm of this organization; a light upon a hill for struggling race enterprises, and a record of service to mankind impossible of computation in dollars and cents. It is sub organizations as the Southern Aid Society of Virginia, standing upon the parapet of the world's commercial expase, holding aloft the black man's accomplishments, that gives us heart and hope that we can surmount economic difficulties and make a place for ourselves in the sun of commerce. Coming upon the scene just thirty years after slavery and operating continuously since that time thru every industrial and financial depression the country has undergone in that period, paying more than three million dollars to policy holders; accumulating assets amounting to more than $600,000 and affording dignified employment to five hundred young Negro men and women, the Southern Aid Society has demonstrated; it has delivered and today it occupies the earned position of one of the race's most stable business enterprises. But it is the stricken and tear-shed families who have received this company's check week after week who can tell the real story of the Southern Aid Society of Virginia; and that story is, "It has been a shelter in the time of storm, a succor in the time of need." Bad Manners in Public and Mob Violence A very great deal of the troubles the race is having now is due to the bad manners and rowdy disposition of a large number of the race. We do not have to go away from our beloved Norfolk to make this statement, as we have a plentiful display of the trouble-making pests here as we have it in all places where we are gathered in numbers. Most of the bad manners and the troublesome consequences are due to ignorance and an exaggerated notion of individual importance, neither of which is excusable, there being plenty of opportunities for education in manners and the rights of individuals, where they begin and where they end. Indeed, such education should be absorbed by every one as he grows up from childhood to manhood. Education in manners and the rights every one has in the community need not be a subject of book information; it can be a matter of association and observation, and most frequently is. The relation which mob violence bears to bad manners in public is too obvious to require any elaborate statement of the case. While all of the bad manners do not fall to our share, we have greater proportion of it than others, and attention is drawn to us by the display of it because we are not colored like other folks, but have a distinct color of our own, with variations; that is, we are a marked people. Those who hold us responsible for the mark and persecute us because of it, do not know what they do but are held to account nonetheless, as all Christians should know that they which have the mark are the ark of the Lord, which proscribes those who finding him or them kill them or unnecessarily persecute them. But it is obligatory upon those who have the mark that they give none offense to the enemy, or as little possible. That is the Biblical version of it, but few so understand it or observe the conditions of it in the Old or the New Test of Men. Mr. Floyd J. Calvin, a staff writer for the Pittsburg Courier, a young Arkansan who has moved and lives in a Northern city, has a chapter in a recent issue of his paper on the this subject of "Public Manners" in which he relates incidents which have fallen under his notice that are to be condemned and which are doing much to make the way of Migrants from the South very hard in the Northern and Western communities where they have settled. We know that his statements are true, and we quite agree with his conclusions. Some of the conclusions Mr. Calvin reaches are as follows: "We often feel like shrinking within ourselves because of the public conduct of some Negroes who show no trace of social instinct and have not the faintest suggestion of good breeding." "To discard nice formality, Negroes coming from the South are making conditions bad for everybody. Altogether, it is not that we do so many things which are wrong that others do not do, but it is that our group attracts particular attention on anything that is not just right. We cannot condemn all individually, but as a whole there is too much looseness on our side of the line." And we do not like to be told of our faults. We all know that. It is a weakness we must overcome. We cannot learn what is good and best unless we are told the truth, although it cuts like a knife. We should have less trouble if we displayed better manners in public, as a group, and practiced a higher standard of conduct in our private relations. A New Member An advance copy of Opinion—Black and White published by the Opinion Publishing Company, Boston, Mass, came to the editor's desk this week. The publication is an attempt to convey to the two major racial groups in America the opinions of each on topics which are essentially of their mutual interest. In this connection it is distinctly original and has assumed for itself the rendering of a mighty service, as there is no doubt that if white and black opinion could be equally disused and disseminated among the two groups it would make for the happiness of both groups. Negro journalism loses much in not being able to get its message over among the other race in whose hands the power to right the wrongs against which we declaim rests. If Opinion should only partly succeed in carrying the voice of the Negro press over to the other side, it will serve mightily. In the words of the publishers the purpose of Opinion "is to give to the public a condensed monthly review of black and white opinion on topics which are essentially of interest to the two groups. The idea being that, local or group opinions may not be lost; that such opinion may be given to the masses "without bias, criticism or editorial comment." In editorial presentation and craftmanship it is a creditable magazine. In it the race press is liberally quoted on topics of the day and upon the same topics white opinion is presented. Opinion-Black and White is interesting from cover to cover and pleasing to look at. The JOURNAL and GUIDE hopes for it an era of success. Great Britian has two million unemployed workingmen and the economic conditions of Europe do not promise any relief by a wholesome demand for British products of labor. And the conditions in the German industrial centers, caused by French occupation in the effort to get "war reparations," and the disturbed conditions in the Balkan States, with Italy playing to win and willing to fight for undue advantage, and the military usurpation of the Government of Spain, with the acquiescence of King Alphonso, and the devastation of Japanese cities by earthquake, and internal ferment of one sort making for strife in our own country,—this old world of ours seems to be in a very shaky condition. It would be difficult to say whether 8-cent gas in California is unusually low considering the freight rate charged to transport it East. * * * The specialist who tells us that laziness is a contributing cause of lunacy doesn't specify the cause of laziness. * * * Having succeeded in settling the difference of opinion between himself and Firpo recently, Dempsey is still overshadowed by a black cloud. * * * In contemplating the unusual expenditure of energy necessary to dig.

WHEN THE WIFE'S AWAY Your letter came last evening, While I shipped across the way, It found me cross and peevening-Yes I'm lonesome, sometimes gay. Where'd you leave the breakfast bacon? And my patent leather pumps, For I want them for the dances. Say, I think I've got the mumps. Did we have an old alarm clock, For I miss the baby's howls. Have I got a chance of sleeping With the mice on nightly prowls, Where'd you put my heavy night-shirt, And that tie of blue and pink You forget to leave the money For that bill collector Blink. When this frying-pan gets rusty, Are there any more around? Say, my tooth-paste and the shav But there's one thing I've located- That makes me feel my former self; It's that jar of branded peaches. You left on the pantry shelf. The Whatnot Column BY ROBERT P. EDWARDS (For A. N. P.) 43—What happened in Boston, Massachusetts on March 5th, 1770. In the early part of 1770, the Tea Tax which had been imposed on the American colonies, was subject for serious debate in the English Parliament; which body had begun to realize that the fires of liberty, which had been smouldering in the hearts of the vexed colonists, were likely to blaze forth at any time. On the day of Lord North's motion (March 5th, 1770) for the repeal of the Tea Act, a group of citizens of Boston under the leadership of Crispus Attucks (a Negro) and stirred with a burning patriotism, started out to violently protest against the many injustices suffered by this erstwhile tranquil people. They were met by a volley from the muskets of the English soldiers, who were quartered in the city, and Attucks and five of his companions fell mortally wounded. This event is known as the Boston Massacre. It is perhaps fitting to note that the first life given in behalf of a nation about to strike for freedom was that of a member of a Race which was to continue enslaved, despised, and oppressed until nearly a century later. 44—Where was Nathaniel Dett born? Nathaniel Dett, trained in the best conservatories and universities of the North, has for many years been devoting his talents and energies to the musical training of the Negroes in the South. He has taught at Lane College in Jackson, Miss.; Lincoln Institute in Jefferson City, Mo., and has since 1913 been head of the voice department of Hampton Institute in Virginia. He was born in Canada. 45-What noted Colored Woman attended the convention of the World's Baptist Alliance, at Stockholm, Sweden in 1923? Mrs. Sarah W. Layton, who is connected with the Association for the Protection of Colored Women, and who is President of the National Baptist Convention Women's Auxiliary, had the distinction of being the only woman delegate of any Race or color, who attended the convention of the World's Baptists Alliance of 1923, as President of a National organization.

TITUS SCHOOL GIRL'S DRESS Several articles of importance about school have appeared in the Ledger Dispatch and in the Journal and Guide recently. One particular interesting one called the attention to the matter of school girl's dress. While dress adds to one's per personality, it is wise to be wise in the selection of school clothes. Mothers should see to it that girls are not overdressed; too much dress in school makes a girl too conscious of herself; she loses much that she ought to gain in study. Now that the stores are filled with pretty ginghams, nothing is more becoming to the average girl than a simple gingham dress neatly trimmed with an accessory of a pretty hair ribbon of becoming color. Crepe de chine waists with one strap corset cover should be supplanted by a neatly trimmed waist of long cloth. Satin and skilk skirts should give way to the blue or brown cheek with a pretty blouse. School girls should be taught not only what is attractive but practical. Shoes should be well chosen and durable. Hose equally so, as poor hose soon loose their color and wear. Her party dress should not be worn at all times else the girl soon loses her charm and she has nothing to be admired by her boy or girl friends. Boys like pretty dressed girls when they take them to parties. As a matter of cleanliness a girl should have her own bath things, such as soap, towels, tooth and hair brush and comb, which she should take care of. She should particularly scrub her hands and nails with a nail brush as well as taking care of her hair. Most of these things she can do herself thus relieving mother, because she glories in the fact that she is a responsible. high school girl who must set the example for the younger girl. Next week we will talk about the boy. EASY ENGLISH By I. HILEY DUNGEE I. Definition. II. Classification. III. Composition. I. Definition.

In the shadowy darkness, we viewed the silent ennoyan Unfriduit—and happy in the hope which possessed our being. O hoary creation! how in travail thou must grow. To free thy children from rude remembrance of eons past! It is drawing! For God who glitters in the sunlight. Thou, in Thy eternal scheme, will be trumpphant; And we. Thy beneficiaries, yet unfinished, shall be transformed By Thy subtle ways to something not unlike Thyself! The hooded intruders o' the night Shall vanquished be-yet conquerors all For they shall have found the grander and nobler purpose of life HELEN ADALE WHITING
