XXIII No. 40 CASE OF ACCUSED SLAYER DRAWS GREAT INTEREST Man Alleged To Be Slayer of Two Washington Policemen Will Fight For His Life On Mistaken Identity Plea. LINCOLN JOHNSON WILL SET UP STRONG DEFENSE Washington, D. C., Oct. 3—Henry Lincoln Johnson will defend Love Golden, who is held in the District jail as Herbert Copeland under indictment for the murder of a Maryland constable and two Washington policemen. "My fight" says Mr. Johnson, "is to save this man's life." SENSATIONAL CASE This will be one of the most sensational cases in which a Negro has ever been involved. It has already afforded sermons. Herbert Copeland was wanted for the murder of a white man in Texas. Officers came to his house on the night of May 21, 1918, and threatened to take him by force into Maryland on the night and killed Policeman J. A. Conrad of the sixth precinct and Constable L. H. McParlan of La Plata, Md. This occurred at Copeland's home 76, I Street northwest. Escaping to the home of his half brother at 1400 Carrollburg place southeast, Capeland there shot Police Lieutenant David T. Dunigan. Police reserves surrounded the house and when his gun failed he severely wounded the police severely wounded during the fighting. Lieut. Dunigan died at Casualty hospital. ESCAPED FROM JAIL Copeland was lodged in jail. Eleven months later while awaiting trial, on the morning of April 21, 1919, between 2 and 3 o'clock, he was reported to have escaped from jail. Police doubted that he ever went through the small opaque cell he had built, his hair tars had been sawn, and prisoners in jail told a story of the slayer having been shin during the night in the prison and his body disposed of. There were other rumors that he had been helped in his escape by officers, who were Masons. Desperate efforts were made by the police to recapture the fugitive. Thousands of copies of an illustration of the slayer's identity, which were broadcast, but it was not until early in July, 1923, that any trace of the slayer was obtained. On July 18, 1923, a man working at the Firestone Tire Company in Akron, Ohio, under the name of Love Golden was arrested as he leaped the plank. The police leaving that "Herbert Copeland, alias Golden, in custody. Will waive extradition. Send officer for him." DENIES HE IS CORELAND After having been brought back here, Golden was taken to headquarters where he was questioned at length. He emphatically denied that he was Herbert Copeland, in good standing of Doe. No. 149 at Akron, Ohio, and a fund will be raised for his defense. HOME SALES GOOD IN HIGH SGHOOL SECTION Journal and Guide Ad. Draws Big For C. E. Morrisette and Company. More evidence that the Journal and Guide is an excellent advertising medium has been experienced by C. E. Morrisette and company, realtors who have carried an advertisement in these columns for several months. Mr. Morrisette states that an homeshave been sold by his firm in the high school section, the properties advertised in this paper, and he has a few more left to be sold at very reasonable prices and terms. He added the assertion that this has been the most attractive section that his company has handled in a long time and, also, the real estate market is generally dull sales have been even greater than anticipated. Mr. Morrisette said that prices in this locality are expected to increase materially due to the splendid school in close proximity; the improvement of streets that will naturally follow the completion of the school, together with the fact that those who have already purchased the best class citizens, "who take itself" makes this locality attractive for home seekers. Y. M. C. A. SOLD TO ELK LODGE After Twenty-Three Years of Inspirational Service "Y" Loses Out Through Financial Difficulties and Public Indifference. WILL NOT JOIN THE SCORES APATHY OF COMMUNITY FUND CHURCH MEMBERS $2,50 Y. M. C. A. TO EL After Twenty-Three Service "Y" Loses Difficulties and P The Y. M. C. A. Building on Queen Street has been sold to the Eureka Lodge of Norfolk Elks, who will convert it into an Elks' Temple. Financial entitlements from which the "Y" was unable to extricate itself brought about the transfer. The institution suffered a serious set back in 1918, through from what is claimed to have been a misunderstanding concerning money raised in a joint campaign with the white association. The colored association was promised, it has been stated, a portion of the funds contributed by this campaign and thru the failure to receive the amount which have been around $3,600, it suffered an embarrassment from which it never fully recovered. This was particularly a strain upon the institution at this time as extensive interior repairs were in progress. To meet the obligations caused by these improvements the bonded indebtedness had to be greatly increased and current revenue devoted to satisfying a part of this obligation as well. The result was financial chaos, which a few days WILL NOT JOIN THE COMMUNITY FUND King's Daughters Tell Reasons For Not Participating In City-Wide Campaign. The Norfolk City Union of the King's Daughters, in courtesy to its friends and in justice to itself, has made public an explanation/of its failure to participate in the Community Fund proposed for 1924. In offering this explanation the King's Daughters state that this refusal to join does not indicate any antagonism to the new project, and there is none, but that association has a very unusual and intricate organization, consisting of closely related and independent Circles and Boarding groups that reconcile its Constitution and its method of functioning with that of the constitution and by-laws of the Community Fund. In a resolution adopted by a representative body of citizens and approved by the several Boards and Circles of King's Daughters among other things the continued sympathetic interest of the public is asked; and that in the opinion of the members that in the absence of a mistake for the association to abandon its present extensive organization, consisting of more than seven hundred earnest, devoted women, working threw twenty circles; that its present plan has enabled it to extend its work that it cannot force what the future demands; that it be perceived there must be more elasticity in its management than can be possible under the Community Chest plan; and that the conclusion has been reached that it is best for the association not to become a part of the Community Chest plan, from no sense of hostility to the movement but solely because it is so likely that after twenty-six years of successful it has grown to its present proportions, it would be a serious mistake for it to risk the danger of starting under other management. Spratley Goes To Datyon, O. Mr. J. A. Spratley, Executive Secretary of Norfolk Community Center left the city Wednesday afternoon for Dayton, Ohio, where expects to pursue some special research work and where he will probably make his future home. Mr. Spratley left in this city a number of friends he met gt. afterregretted to see him gt. after entertaining the very best hopes for success in other fields. He was affiliated with several organizations having for the purpose the uplift of the race and was one of the founders of the Norfolk Civic and Welfar League. He was serving this organization as secretary until the day before he left the city. Mr. Spratley enjoyed a wide circle of friends here won to meet his high-paid and pleasing personality. This community recommends him wherever he may go as being a young man of worth. ago terminated in the transfer of the building into other hands. The Norfolk Y. M. C. A. was the first building of its kind erected in this country for the exclusive use of colored men and boys that was completed in 1000 and was the largest building on Queen street. William A. Hunton, one of its pioneer secretaries, later became the first lored secretary of the International Y. M. C. A. Committee in New York. The Elks have not made public the details of their plans concerning the future uses to which the first lored secretary learned that extensive improvements will be made to it and proper equipment furnished to make it an ideal Elks' Temple. There is a vast amount of rich and exceedingly interesting history attached to the Y. M. C. A. in Norfolk and its work together with men of a general age and many days who accompanied with it and next wee the Journal and Guide will publish a full history of the 35 years' history in this city. It is certainly worth reading. Bank Street Church Pastor Delivers Forceful Sermon On Present Day Evils. Bv W. J. SCOTT "A Call to Duty," from the gospel according to St. Luke, chapter 14, 23, verse, "And the Lord said unto the servant. Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled," was the subject of a convincing sermon by the pastor of Bank St., church, Rev. C. M. Long, Sunday morning to a large congregation. The discourse which showed thoughtful and careful preparation was in keeping with the spirit of missionary Sunday. Logically dealing with the servant dealings dealing with the servant commissioned, the field of endeavor, the task assigned, and the purpose of the errand on which the servant was sent out, it constituted a powerful appeal to continue in the work of foreign missions, if the world is to be converted to Christ. "The present missionaries on foreign fields and a few preachers in the pulpit will not save the world. Some of us sing halluijah, it is done, when it is not done. The salvation of the world cannot be achieved without slight inroads of Christianity upon the creeds of the heathen nations of the world us are at present manifest," declared the pastor. He asserted that that time had long passed by when the missionary is to be supplied with only a hymn book under one arm, and added that he had received the gospel. "We should tell it in large terms; the gospel of Christ is a "go-tell-it-gospel," and we should hestain to come to the place where we make a proportion between our incomes and what we give to the Lord." Referring to the spirit of activity, he said, "Where ignorance is enthroned, and the darkness is dense, there is where the strongest of us like to stay in the cities and leave the country districts untouched." The pastor took pleasure to scave the苦难 mankind among Christians of the present day toward saving souls for the kingdom. "We should visit the places of vice and the slums; many are perishing, dying and firstering toNothing is comparable to the Scriptures; all the classics that have been written by man sink away into insignificance when compared with the gospel of Jesus Christ in its power to give light and salvation unto the hearts of men." Not less forceful was the mission of the church in its upm of the young people that they might stand forth as the future's noble men and women. "If we do not fill up the prayer meetings with our children, we will fill up the jails with them. Save your sons and daughters from the wickedness of this generation," he added in admonition to parents con- NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1923 First Prize In Guide's "Everybody Wins" Campaign 1924 HUDSON COACH cerning this most serious of all duties. The speaker concluded by stating that the houses of worship would be filled, if we as Christians did our duty; and that if we see to it that this is done on earth, the heavenly Sovereign, the mansion of the Messiah would be filled as the reward of righteousness. Rev. Long will preach on the subject: God's Greatest Gift to the World, next Sunday morning. WELFARE LEAGUE IN ACTIVE CIVIC WORK Many Subjects Discussed Relative to Civic Improvements At Tuesday Night Meeting. The Norfolk Civic and Welfare League held a very interesting meeting and John M. Allison Tuesday night. Several topics, looking forward to civic betterment were discussed and taken under advisement. One of the principal subject discussed was the advisability of taking further measures to have the name Phyllis Wheatley removed from the building at the corner of Church and Queen streets. It was argued by some that such use of the name was a desecration to the memory of the famous Negro Poetess. The committee appointed at a previous meeting that it had been informed by the agents that no such intention existed in the minds of the owners of the building and that if the operation of the auditorium should become such as to discredit the community, the name would willingly be supplanted. These people averred that it was their purpose to so conduct the affairs of the place as to give honor to the name chosen. After a brief discussion of the latter its name was among other things discussed were recreation facilities for colored people, Community Chest Fund campaign and vice conditions in certain sections of the city. Mr. J. A. Spratley tendered his resignation as secretary of the organization on account of leaving the city. A rising vote of thanks was extended him for faithful service. A number of representative citizens are manifesting a sincere interest in the activities of the league and paid up memberships are continually being received.

CITIZENS WILL ASK DISMISSAL OF PATROLMAN CITIZENS WILL ASK DISMISSAL OF PATROLMAN Removal From Police Force Of Officer Whitshead, Who Was Fined For Assaulting Bowden Will Be Sought. Patrolman Earnest Whitehead drew a fine of $20.00 in Police Court Tuesday morning when he was arraigned on a charge of assault and battery as the result of a warrant sworn out my Rudolphus Bowden, colored, who conducts, a confectionery store and newstand at 607 Queen Street. In testimony brought out at the trial Mr. Bowden charged that he with a group of young men were standing in front of his place of business Friday afternoon when Patrolman Dennis Fentress came along and ordered them to move on. The other men obeyed, but Bowden insisted his business place refused to leave. He was again ordered to move on when he informed the officers that he conducted a business at that place. Bowden refused to go inside when ordered informing the officer that selling newspapers from his street stand required his presence on the outside of the time. He was put under arrest and while being escorted to the police station on Fentress, Bowden struck him knocking out one of his teeth while officer Fentress held his wrist. The patrolman testified that he struck Mr. Bowden for resisting arrest and using a foul name toward the police department. When Bowden was arraigned in Police Court Saturday morning on the charge preferred against him by the arresting officer he was vigorously defended by attorney J. Eugene Diggs, who emphasized to the court the brutality of the conduct of the officer. Justice Spindle dismissed the charge. It was then Bowden swore out the warrant for the policeman as his attorney told the court that he had been informed that his client had applied to the Second Precedent soon after the incident, but was refused a warrant and told that none would be issued for the officer against when he complained. Attorney J. Eugene Diggs and Captain Tonilin prosecuted the charge against officer Whitechad, Captain Tonilin holding up the officer's conduct for a seaching denunciation. Mr. Bowden sought out Dr. J. Jarvis Bowen soon after being re- leased from arrest and told him the story of his experience. Dr. Bowens advised him as to what steps to take. A group of citizens have become interested in the case and are determined to have their attorney before the Police Trial Board with a view of procuring officer Whitehead's suspension, or at least a sore reprimand. YOUTH DROWNS OFF ATLANTIC CITY DOCK Nine Year Old Boy Carries Father's Breakfast And Becomes Victim of Accident. The nine year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Matthew Addison, and nephew of Mrs. Mary M. West, of Southampton avenue was accidently drowned Thursday morning, September 27, about 8 o'clock off the wharf in front of J.R. M. West, on Front Street. The youth had been to carry his father's breakfast and it is thought that after leaving his father to return home, stopped on the wharf to play, a hand truck and some stones being found near the spot where it is presumed he fell overboard. When the boy did not show up at home in a reasonable time to start for school his mother became too tired to inquire when he left. His father informed her that he should have reached home some time before then. A search was instituted and about four o'clock in the afternoon the lad's body was fished from the river at the edge of the dock. He had drowned while both his father and uncle worked inside of the oyster house, thinking once that he had gone home. The remains were shipped to Exmore, Va., Sunday morning over the N. Y. P. & N. R. R. for interment. Mr. Salisbury Injured Mr. R. J. Salisbury, 717 Chapel street, an employee in the United State Mail Service, accidently injured his back while on duty on a mail car Wednesday of last week. Mr. Salisbury's injuries are not serious, but they have caused him quite intense suffering. His condition has greatly improved since and he expects to be able to resume his duties very shortly. Editor Young Improves Mr. P. B. Young, editor and publisher of the Journal and Guide, continues to improve from the serious illness to which he was subjected for some time. His friends and employees of the Guide Publishing Company confidently look for his early return to his desk.

The Journal and Guide to day makes an announcement that will be of interest to every reader of this paper and to every man or woman, boy or girl in Norfolk and everywhere this paper circulates. Everyone knows the tremendous皱 this paper is making in public-favor. Its large number readers, who have without undue egotism, the Journal and Guide is second to none—a newspaper that brings to its readers all—the happenings—and news of the community and country in a concise and readable form. The Journal and Guide has launched a $2,500 "Everybody Wins" Grand Prize Distribution, the purpose of which, primarily, is to still further increase the influence and prestige through its friends, each of whom is given the opportunity to win a prize without the expenditure of one penny. Any man or woman, boy or girl, is eligible to enter the election. When you have been nominated, either by yourself or a friend, you are given a rare chance to make use of any spare time you may have to secure for yourself any of the $2,500 worth of splendid and costly prizes. The amount of money you will win, whether it be the fine automobile or a large cash award, depends entirely upon the interest you take in your campaign. Remember, not a cent of investment is necessary now or ever. It costs you nothing to enter the "Everybody Wins" campaign. All you need do is to nominate yourself by using the nomination blank which appears on this page. You then start carning votes right away. If you do not wish to nominate yourself, you have the privilege of being nominated by some friend or you may nominate some acquaintance and thus help him or her to win this dandy automobile or one of the other big prizes. See the big announcement on page 8 of this issue. A magnificent, new latest model five-passenger tearing car; a bag of gold containing $10 in that shining material; a bag of prizes of $75, $50, $25, $15, and $10, besides a 10 per cent cash award to every active participant who does not win one of the big awards. These are the wonderful prizes that will be distributed free by the Journal and Guide to those who desire them. Plan for distributing these many and costly gifts is the fairest and most impartial way imaginable. Friends and readers of this paper are to decide the winners of all the prizes, even the big automobile. Free votes will be the means by which the prize winners will be determined. The Journal and Guide has thousands of friends and well wishes who will be anxious to help in this liberal plan. The Journal and Guide has pro- vided that every participant who takes active part in the campaign shall be handsomely compensated for the time and effort expended. As you will discover by reading the announcement elsewhere in this issue, you can nominate yourself as a candidate and your nomination counts for votes right at the start, if you do not wish to nominate a friend and thus help him or her to win one of the big prizes. It costs nothing to become a candidate or to secure the biggest of the prizes, the latest model, brand new touring car. You are not bound by any specific requirements and it is only required that you be a member of the reader of the Journal and Guide. You can devote just as much or as little of your spare time as you wish to the pleasant pastime of collecting votes, with the assurance that you will be well paid by the Journal and Guide with a handsome prize or a sum of cash. You simply cannot lose—"Everybody Wins." Our Slogan—"Everybody Wins." The prizes are almost fabulously valuable, considering the extreme shortness of the time in which they will be distributed. Imagine securing a prize which would cost you over $1,500 in cash to buy for a few days and then sell it all you have to do—simply gather in the votes. When you get started the votes pile up at an amazing rate. But one of the biggest features of all in this Grand Prize Distribution is the fact that there will be no losses, as a cash commission at ten percent will be paid to all active non-prize winners, which, in itself, is an excellent proposition. The object of this campaign is to advertise jointly the Journal and Guide to the Hudson-Super-Six Coach, to secure new and renewal subscriptions; to the Journal and Guide, and last, but not least, to win a warm welcome for this newspaper everywhere. In short, the Journal and Guide will award its friends very liberally indeed for their assistance in introducing this paper into more homes in this town and county instead of employing out side solicitors or security services to accomplish the same results. A Short Campaign This campaign will not be a longdrawn out affair of several months duration, but it extends over a period of only a few weeks closing Saturday night. November 17th. Think of being able to secure in six short weeks prizes and awards that would ordinarily require months, yes, even years of self-denying and saving to acquire. (Continued on Page 6.) SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON BY REV. J. E. BRIGGS Interpreter of Theology and the En- lish Bible, Vargas Stainton and College, Lynchbern, VA. SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 7TH, 1932 KARAHAM, A BLESSING TO THE WHOLE WORLD Gen. 12:11:1; 18:17; 22:15-18. GOLDEN TEXTER—In the shall all fam- ily be blessed. The call and the blessing of Abr- ham. Gen. 12:13. of Abraham, which is the earliest record of the beginnings of the Jewish race, we find the personal and universal ancestral roots of the will blesses, and in the seed shall the nations of the earth be blessed." In the original call of of the Hebrew race, in the divine ideal place he will be the revelation of their personal privileges and blessings simply as a 17 preservation for their service for all the nations of the earth. A blessing for the inhabitants in the coventry with Alphas and Apostles. In his last words in his very terms—Dr. W. J. Baskford, in God's Missionary Plan for the World. Abraham, the religious pioneer, was called upon to forsake his country, kindled an unknowled land—Heb. 113. As Robert Morrison was nearing the degree of Chinn he wrote in his journal, "Abramah! I would imitate the in his dependence on the promise when their wantst forth not knowing whether the mind of God would have then. My present mind of God would have been Abramah's. But also! I am full of assent thought relative to my reservation in Chinn. Oh that I could leave all wants in his hands who has determined the times before appointed and the bounds of our earth. I am the nation of national gods of the heathen. Then art the God of the whole earth. The boundless universe—immensity itself is filled with thy presence. Then art my God. Undue solicitude begone." Abraham was enlisted to be a librarian. The librarian should be a librarian. Abraham should be a librarian. (When a man is blessed, it is meant that him become a blessing — Dr. Crescent and Dr. Crescent.) 2. Jehovah Makes a Great Promise to Abraham—G. 18:17-18 Jehovah makes a great spouse and cremains wife faith. The patriarch believed Jehovah. Some of the promises which Jehovah made to Abraham, would have disbelieved and no doubt disbelieved by a man of his blood. Reed, G. 15:14-17; 15:5; 18:22-17. Only is Abraham the father of the Hebrew through the promise of his primacy made him the father of the spiritual tree, all believers in the true God. Abraham is in the Tree. in the arms The some with india, india carry old obey is proved to him that he ought not go, but that he ought to stay home, and education is a citizen of the world, a brother to the furthest as well to the nearest. 16. The Test of Abraham—Gen 22:11-17 11. Hob 11:17-19. 12. The birth of Abraham meant wonderful blessings. It meant the birth of new life in his home. It meant the satisfaction of knowing that his life would be continued. It meant the assurance of a birth at his and his wife's side. It meant the fulfillment of God's promise to him. It was the crown on God's crown. It was the assurance of the remainder of the moment, the nation that was to spring forth from his ancestors. It was through him to the whole earth. And all this was wrapped up in that sad and so when the command came unannahately from Jehovah that Jesus should be given to his sisters, it was the most severe test he endured. It was a test that reached to the very roots of his life, his life in his birth, all his plans, all his past, present. The test was a severe one but Abraham met it meanfully. He received the well-done黎予 of Jehovah. Because he had dawn this thine, and had not done this thine only one gosh. 14:17. The Bible is the most travelless in the spiritual and moral realms.—Dr. W. H.

(Authorized version.) The apostle John, author of the last book in the Bible, from which we get our text, had been ruthlessly torn from his friends, his home, and his church in Ephesus and exiled on an island in the Aegean sea of the coast of his Minority, to it he most miserably but mildly expresses it. Not for any wrang that he had committed, but because his life was too consistently Christian did he have to suffer the treatment that was given the worst criminals of his day. John's life and the ideals of his life so out of harmony with existent nature in Ephesus that his presence became objectifiable to the extent that he was banished. **True** "dilty" we sometimes sing, "John on the island by himself," is not true. There were others on the island, but not people who could be companions for him. With no sympathetic friend with whom he could talk, he was an exile, for a while at least, was all his enemies intended it should be. It was not far from Patmos to Ephesus. But for the sea he could have walked to the scene of his dearest and best labors between sunset and sunrise. Therefore, the sea was the greatest barrier between him and that which he held most dear among the things of man. He was constant torment-God always comforts his People. He comforted John by revealing to him the fact that all forces working against God, be they men or demons, are bound to fail. He showed John that Roman rule would be overwrought with no rearing sea would be anything else than earth. What God did for John was equal to saying, "trouble won't last always." Likewise, my brother God will comfort us if, as John, we trust Him, God promises to remit us even like a son, may send us from heaven, brace our hearts. myndial's chair, instantly, but not accidentally indicated it. It was able to walk, she used it to the door and gave it to me and a mankind in such a large way that even sickness could not prevent her being happy. An adept in needle work and painting, she began making bookmarks. They sold readily and with the proceeds she invested in foreign missions. The knowledge that she was, while in her invalid's chair helping to carry out the Master's command, "Go ye to all the world and preach the gospel to every creature," made her one of the happiest and sunniest women on God's footstool. That was only an earnest of the manskap joys that awaited her when a child came to her life, left the house of glass dirty but free to face" where "we shall know even as we are known." The occasion for greatest happiness in heaven for little Johnson was to find out the extent of service she rendered by the use of her fingers in making bookmarks. Sometimes our sea is race prejudice. This is especially true of Negroes in the United States. If the question were asked, "what in your life stands biggest between you and contentment?" the average Negro would answer, "race prejudice." We buy many of the finer comforts, it marks no difference how much money we have. Our property is insurance and our lives unsafe. No Negro man can guarantee his wife and daughter protection, because of race prejudice. That fact humiliates. ates him and keeps his wife and children from regarding him with the same esteem they would have if they could look on him as standing between them and insult and injury. Thank God the Bible is full of reasons for our believing that trouble won't last always. Not only does the Bible point to that conclusion, but the signs of the times also. How also can you account for the many books, magazine articles, editorials, private conversations and letters of women with white men and white women? The Commission on Interracial Cooperation, composed of the best and bluest blood of the South is a most definite promise to the Negro in America, that "trouble won't last always" as it relates to race prejudice. The mothers and fathers of the race are hearing the call of the Negro for a chance to develop fully all the manhood and womanhood qualities God has given them. If you look for the evidence, braither, in your own neighborhood, you will find enough to make you join in the song: "I'm so glad, trouble don't last always." HOME COMING WEEK AT ST.

LINGOLN HAS FIRST GRIDIRON DRILL New Candidates Plentiful and Display Rare Skill; Coach Whips Team into Form. Lincoln, Univ, Pa.—Last Tuesday marked the first practice of the formidable Lincoln Lions. Special exercise and light training featured the first day. The early practices have consisted of punting tackling of dummies, and thorough instruction on the fundamentals: A light scrimmage is expected Saturday. The usual slogan, "Beat Howard," was murmured here and there, but the Coach has changed it to, "Beat 'em all!"—and this is the real aim of the team and the student body. There was a slight rejuvenation of the old Lincoln spirit at the spirit but impressive rabble meeting which was held primarily to create student interest. New Men Promising Thus far the new candidates have proved themselves to be real fighters. They are forever alert and willing to battle most assiduously for every yard. Little can be said of them individually, as nobody has been seen in his regular position. Most of the Regulars Return With the exception of two men—"Sky" Woods and "Red" Jacques, who fought most diligently for Lincoln during their day—the "arsyx remain intact, yet with his asis to the line-up due to the remarkable showing of the new boys. Captain "Whirwind" Johnson the greatest ground-gainer in Negro football, will lead the squad from a back-field position. Ex-Capt. Costa, the veteran lineman, will don tugs in a few days, "Battle ship Carter, our dependable guard of last year, may cover the pigskin at center and Morgan may be shifted to guard. Jazz Byrd, our diminutive half-back who made the spectacular run against "Howard, shows anxiety to repate his feat. Bean" Crudup and "Tad Lancas ter, the hardy ends, does the positions with much skill. Lee, another backfield man and the Varsity punter, shows much improvement over last year, Pointexter, another husky guard, has answered the call of the Coach. McLean, the swift quarter-back, has not returned as yet. A difficult schedule has been arranged, as follows:— IDA COX 12033—Father, Prepare Me and My Lord's Gonna Move This Wicked Race —Sung by Jubilee Quartette. 12034—Midnight Blues and Farewell Blues —Sung by Hanna Schoenfelter Fletcher Henderson's Orchestra.

TUSKEGEE WARRIORS EXHIBIT OLD FORM TUSKEGEE WARRIORS EXHIBIT OLD FORM Tilt Between Varsity and Serubs Indicate Presence of A Snappy Eleven at Inst. Ala., Oct., 6—"Eat 'Em Up Tiger's," the War cry of the Tuskegee Tiger, resounded throughout the campus of the famous Alabama school Saturday afternoon, September 29, when Coach Abbott unleashed his tentative varsity for an attack on th reserve outfit, off the first "full time tilt" of the season. Every one of the forty-seven men contending for Varsity berth got into the fray before the "time limit" as designated by the "Hoyle of football," called a halt on the afternoon's hostilities. When the fracas began the varsity lineup consisted on: Bilbo, left end, Captain Kitchen, left tackle. 6 lb. Bag 25c Strong, left guard, Tadlock, center, Jennings, right guard, Denby, right tackle, Hill right end, Boss, quarter, Reiley and Wooten, halves and Joyner fullback. To greet the warring Tiger was a squad composed of: Mobley, left end, Bell, left tackle, Brown left guard, Woodward, center, Wright, right guard, Harris, right tackle, Duncan right end, Smith quarter, Stevenson and Stewart halves and Penny fullback. Boss, Bailey, Wooten and Joyner carried the pigskin for long gains but to carry the ball behind the goal line seemed almost an impossibility. These aggregations battled fiercely for twenty minutes before the varsity was able to place the oval behind the goal line for the first counter of the season. For the second squad, Stewart and Penny starred in the backfield and threatened the varsity goal line on several occasions. Stewart was a bulwark of strength on the defense and was responsible for many of the yards gained by the reserve outfit. es fit your eyes pocket-book Include the names of the very they come to us because they get the most courteous treat- examination of their eyes, and lenses.

Without a doubt this is the largest prize distribution ever made in this locality. This Fine automobile and all the other prizes are to be given absolutely FREE to our readers and friends. Any one eligible to become a candidate and it is not necessary that you be a subscriber or even a regular reader of this newspaper. Remember—“EVERYBODY WINS.” Clip the Nomination Blank on page one and send or bring it in for yourself or a friend today—be riding in a car of your own in a short time. Vote-getting in this “EVERYBODY WINS” $2,500.00 Grand Prize Campaign is easy and pleasant and you'll be mighty well paid for every minute of your spare time. The important thing is to start AT ONCE. You'll be surprised at how easy it is to get votes. Your friends will all save their votes for you and they will give you their subscriptions. Begin collecting the votes at once. The Nomination Blank starts you off with 5,000 votes right at the beginning. Get your nomination in TODAY—without fail. How to Enter and Win The first step in order to share in this mammoth distribution of costly awards is to clip the Nomination Blank appearing on page one of this issue and send or bring it to Campaign Headquarters, the Journal and Guide, 713 Highland Avenue, Norfolk, Va. The Nomination Blank entitles you or the person nominated to 5,000 votes. Then you will be given a free outfit consisting of a special receipt book, sample copies of the paper and full information relative to the campaign as well as assistance that will help you win theautomobile or one of the grand prizes. It requires votes to win and votes are secured in two ways. First, by clipping out the free 100-vote coupons which will appear in each issue of The Journal and Guide. Very soon, however, these voting votes are reduced to a lesser number of votes and they must be voted before the expiration date appears thereon. But the other and faster way to get it is to get your friends to pay you for subscriptions to this paper. Old or renewal subscriptions count as many votes as new subscriptions but you will notice that more votes are given for subscriptions turned in now and later. (See schedule for votes below.) So you see that the more subscriptions you secure and the quicker you get the better your chances will be to land the dance tickets. When, too, the first in the field will get the "crown" of the votes and subscriptions while the last entering will have to take what is left. Be sure that your Nomination is in RIGHT AWAY. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Question—When is the best time to start my cam- paign? Answer: Right now, at the beginning of the conversation, time to start for two reasons: First, subscriptions that aren't any other time as the field will not have been "completed". Secondly, the vote schedule is not yet complete. Thirdly, get more for everything they do as the vote schedule" printed on this page clearly shows. Question: Have I the privilege of nominating myself or my nomination be sent in by another person? Answer: You may nominate yourself. It is not your nomination be sent in by another person? Question—What do you mean by your announcement, that "Everybody Wins?" Answer—This means that every active will be paid in proportion to the amount of spare time devoted. To those active candidates, who make a weekly cash report, and who do not win one of the principal grand prizes, a prize in cash or a commission of ten per cent, will be paid on all subscription turned in. Hence "Everybody Win"—there are no losers.

Negro Life and Love THE Virgin threw on his cap and overcoat and went down the stairs three steps at a time. He forgot that he had nothing on his feet but a pair of loose old dancing pumps that he used for lounging around in. He dashed through the slush on Harvard Square and leaped aboard a trolley, his brain simmering. Wild thoughts whirled through his mind like wind-blown autumn-leaves. Beatrix needed him his comfort, his arms, his lips! She had loved him all the time in spite of her apparent treachery. He had not read just such things in plays and novels? In his excitement the Virgin had got on the wrong car, and he discovered it only when he was six blocks out of the way. He got off the car and asked a policeman for directions, and in a moment he was splashing through the slush his loose pumps full of it. But he was not even aware of it. He saw noting but his red vision of arms and lips, and the song of those lips and arms sprang to his brain. "Well," said Joe, "I think I'll be getting along towards Cambridge." "Wait a while," said the Virgin, "I'll go with you." "Indeed you won't!" said Laura. "Out in that slush after a mustard bath? You shan't leave this house tonight." "Right!" cried Joe. "Keep him here; Laura; he a part of the Pro- Suddenly he stopped. From a window not six feet away from him came a measured throb of the bass keys of a piano, and over their heartbeat soared an unmistakable melody that seemed to come from another world. Some master pianist was playing, and each note fell clear and pure upon the Virgin's brain. "The Moonlight Sonata!" he exclaimed, "Laura!" The two ides struck him almost together, and the spirit of Laura over him. The flames in his head out, and his brain grew suddenly and keen. What was this trouble Beatrix? Just why had she called him? Love! Beatrix, love! A dark dream thought loomed in his mind, so unseen hand seemed to be pushing him back. Only a week ago he had been talking with Joe Grimes about Beatrix and Joe had mishepseed- Almost with a show, the Virgin store himself away from the corner and rushed back by the way he had come. He strode rapidly thru the slush, wondering whether he had missed something or escaped something. O terrified relief came over him. He went on and did not pause till he reached the front of Smyphony Hall. As he stood there wondering if he had been a childish cool to be scared away from Beatrice somebody playing a piano, a Grown up car came along. Before he knew what he did he boarded it. He sat there as the car sped along, shivering and wondering at himself. He felt as if he were in the grip of forces outside of himself. He was still wondering when the conductor called the name of Laura's street. He got off and waded through several hundred yards of slush to Laura's house. "Why, Virgin!" cried Laura, as she opened the door in response to the ring. "Some right in, Oh, Joe." She led the still bewildered Virgin into the parlor, and there sat Joe Grimes. In a glance the Virgin saw that Joe was not of his usual chrestfulness himself. He held guard at the Virgin and said gravely, "Virgin, where have you been?" "Just come from Cambridge," said the Virgin, wondering. "Thank God," said Joe, sitting down with a deep breath. The Virgin and Laura looked at him in surprise, then suddenly Laura gave a cry. "Virgin, look at your feet." "I don't mok it your foot." His feet scuse with slush to the ankles, and to the sight. Already he follw a dull bache, and now and then he shivered. "Look here, Virgin," said Laura, "you come right back here." She almost dragged him thru the house to the kitchen and Joe followed them, laughing. "Take off those silly pumps and the socks right away," commanded Laura rushing out of the room. I will be right back," she called, as she rapt awake. Ursula used the pumps of pumponia, the Virgin pulled off his soaking shoes and socks. "Virgin," said Joe, in low voice. "I looked for you and couldn't find you. I came out here to Laura's you weren't here, and then I was scared for sure enough." "But why?" asked the Virgin, blankly. "I was dreadfully afraid you had been enticed to Trixie Marleys. You'd be just her game now," he or whatever the Virgin grew more frightened each moment. "You remembered my prophesy, well it's happened. She was p wise to it tonight. She's grabbing at every straw, and if she ever got hold of you——" "Got them off?" called Laura, rushing down the stairs. She hurried into the kitchen with a boot-ub and a box. In a minute a boot-ub and a box, mustard, and Laura had firmly planted the Virgin's feet in the water.

You shouldn't leave this house tonight." "Right!" cried Joe. "Keep him here, Laura; be a part of the Providence that watches over drunkards, sailors and Virgins. Good night." Joe left with a grin, and the Virgin mockly stayed where he was. "Laura," he said, when she had returned from showing Joe to the door, "you're saving me from pneumonia." "Why on earth did you wear these things a night like this?" she demanded, daintily picking up the soggy pumps. "Why," he lied, "I was in a hurry to see you, Laura, and couldn't wait to change." She turned away and kept her back to him, and he suddenly fell that he would give the world to have her face him again. "Laura," he said, gently, and she did not turn. "Laura," he said again, his heart roaring within him. Laura" "What do you wish?" she murmured. "Do you know I love you?" "No, no, no," she said hurriedly, "and you don't either." He reached far out and caught her hand. She dropped his shoes and she took his other hand.

"Do you want to catch your death of cold?" "I won't put 'em back unless you won't let me hold your hands and say my say." "You're trying to bargain; go back into that tab, Virgin." She pushed him back into the armchair and again put his feet in the tub. But this time she did not escape, for the Virgin had his arm firmly around her and made her sit on the arm of the chair, so he could pull out his heart then suddenly she was in his lap, with her arms around him, kissing and crying. And the intensity of Bentrix's kisses was nothing like the sincerity of Laura's kisses now. "Yes, yes," she said at last, "I loved you before I ever saw you, and that night in front of the library when I saw you on the verge of going to run, and when you left it all behind and came to the concert with me, I could have cried. Of course, you know I will." Then for another minute they forgot the world, only to be wadely jerked back into it by a loud voice. "Lauva! What's this?" An elderly man stood in the oper door of the kitchen. The Virgin felt that it was just his luck always to be caught in some ridiculous situation by girl's fathers. But Laura kept her position in his room, he could not very well rise. Then he be bold and answered the man." "You are Laura's father I presume. I am Christopher Bowling. I am in the act of proposing to your daughter, she." "Well," said Mr. Worth, I've seen time I ever heard of a man proposing marriage with his feet in a tub." the school.

When all return the enrollment will probably exceed that of the past year. In addressing the students at the Tuesday evening shapel services, Dr. Moton, Principal, said: "It is very gratifying to see so many present on the opening day and I hope your presence indicates an anxiety on your part to begin your work the year.

Staff Personnel In the development of successful or "going" newspaper properties in these modern times business and editorial staffs, especially the latter, become impersonal affairs. What is needed to insure a newspaper's growth and stability is a competent functioning business and editorial organization. The average reader cares little about the personnel of this organization, the days when men's personality make newspapers or any other business having passed out, largely on account of corporate ownership of practically everything of any importance. The JOURNAL and GUIDE is making a slight departure from the generally accepted rule to give merited recognition to two members of its staff. Readers will notice that at the head of this column the names of T. Thomas Fortune and Clifton L. Williams have been added as contributing editor and city editor respectively. Mr. Fortune has been for several years a regular contributor to our editorial page, and has helped to make it what is generally conceded to be one of the best editorial pages among race papers. Mr. Williams came to the paper about two years ago and has responded so well to a process of training as to be able now to fill acceptably the responsible position of city editor, which is saying a great deal for Mr. Williams' ability and practical utility in the office. The JOURNAL and GUIDE is glad to give this added recognition to these two members of its staff at a time when loyalty and ability have been of invaluable service. Governor Morrison of North Carolina is to be commended for his prompt and courageous manner in handling the threatened outbreak of violence at Spruce Pine. Uncontrolled temperature must be met with stringent measures and the musket and bayonet in the hands of the militia are far more effective in the procurement of law and order when a community becomes rampageous than official pedantic inhibitions. A Negro escaped convict from a road gang was alleged to have attempted an assault upon an aged white woman of the town of Spruce Pine. White citizens became enraged and hurriedly assembled a pose which set out on a scouring expedition for the alleged attacker. A highway construction gang of between seventy-five and eighty colored men in the pay of the State was working in the vicinity of the town. Members of the posse ordered these men to quit, their jobs and leave the neighborhood post-haste for the sake of their own safety. They immediately obeyed. Governor Morrison was apprised of the situation and at once wired the authorities of the county that the rights of all the citizens would be protected and the law would be unheld. Action immediately followed these words Adjutant General J. Van B. Motts and companies F. and B., of the North Carolina National Guard were dispatched to the scene of excitement with orders to protect the rights of all the citizens white and colored. The guardsmen arrived at the turbulent little town and set about rounding-up the fleeing workmen to escort them back to their jobs and to protect them in the pursuance of their work even at the point of bayonets. It makes no difference that the expelled men were engaged on state work, the action of the Governor is the kind that commands respect for the majesty of the law. This thing of issuing vacating edicts to whole communities of colored people is a form of law rapacity that is manifesting itself in our body politic with increasing frequency. The only way to stop it and the only way to protect the rights of the groups against whom the expulsions are directed is to make it at once apparent that these people are safe in remaining where they are. They can get but little solace out of the declaration that the power of the State will be exercised to protect them when the machinery for executing that power is a long way off and their lives are im- Are We the Most Corrupt People Mr. Marcus Garvey, the provisional president of Africa, has been very sweeping in his condemnation of the average membership of his race and its leadership, such as it has, since he got out of the Tombs prison, in New York, on $15,000 cash bail. He has maintained in his newspaper, the Negro World, that his enemies in the race, who are leaders of groups and propanganda objects not unlike his, were responsible for the failure of, his Black Star steamship project and of getting him tangled up in the law. But the facts show that Mr. Garvey, and not his enemies, dug the pit into which he fell. The evidence of using the mails to defraud, and of deceiving those who entrusted their money to him for investment, was furnished by Mr. Garvey and not by his enemies. He pursued his enemies, of course, and they pursued him, but courts and juries usually determine causes on incriminating evidence and on not incriminating airtel cfmfwvu Mr. Marcus Garvey, the provisional president of Africa, has been very sweeping in his condemnation of the average membership of his race and its leadership, such as it has since he got out of the Tombs prison, in New York, on $15,000 cash bail.

We are sure that is an error of judgment which he has done more by iteration to make appear to be true than the facts warrant. But he goes a great deal further than this. In the Negro World of September 2, says: "As the world can see it, we are the most corrupt (and may I not say despised) people in the world, in that we work without armeny and unity among ourselves. We hate each other; we do everything to block the progress of each other; we are just living devamong ourselves." As a person believes so sees. We have all sorts of characters long in us just as other race groups have and any of them are worthless and a drag on the name and reputation of the race, stand in the way of the progress of the race, but they are by no means in the majority. And it easy to indict these bad characters but impossible to indict the whole race but their credit. It is the disposition to this vile waging which the white enemies of the race use their chief stock in trade and which gives and the white friends of the race the most able to overcome. It is none of the business Marcus Garvey, or any other outstanding member of the race, to make such a sweeping treatment of the whole race because of the overmings of a few of its members, a very agreeable minority, if you will. the leadership of the race in this country the time being, has passed from its timeing politicians and agitators without visions of support. The leadership has passed to those who have developed our splendid organizations, our business enterprises, insurance companies and our splendid firms, with our splendid newspapers leading before, exhorting the masses to higher and our things and standing like a vast mount of strength for all of the just manhood citizenship rights of the race. The masses of the race are following these constructive leaders rather than the self-seek politicians and agitators without visible use of support. If Mr. Garvey finds him in the parasitical class it is his misfortune and not our responsibility. If he has read the conclusion that the race is "corrid and despised," for as a man thinks of it, so, logically, others are inclined to think of him. The leader who not believe in those he would lead cannot be in himself, and he will start from now and always fetch up nowhere. Mr. Garpeppers to have done this in the last analogy failure to do the impossible things he did out to do. But Mr. Garvey, says that our leaders who are his enemies are opposed to him because he is black. We are sure that is an error or judgment which he has done more by iteration to make appear to be true than the facts warrant. But he goes a great deal furthur than this. In the Negro World of September 2 he says: "As the world can see it, we are the most corrupt (and may I not say despised?) people in the world, in that we work without harmony and unity among ourselves. We hate each other; we do everything to block the progress of each other; we are just living devils among ourselves." As a person believes so he sees. We have all sorts of characters among us, just as other race groups have and many of them are worthless and a drag on the good name and reputation of the race, standing in the way of the progress of the race, but they are by no means in the majority. And it is easy to indict these bad characters but impossible to indict the whole race which they discredit. It is the disposition to do this vile thing which the white enemies of the race use as their chief stock in trade and which gives us and the white friends of the race the most trouble to overcome. It is none of the business of Marcus Garvey, or any other outstanding member of the race, to make such a sweeping indictment of the whole race because of the shortcomings of a few of its members, a very disagreeable minority, if you will. The leadership of the race in this country for the time being, has passed from its time serving politicians and agitators without visible means of support. The leadership has passed to those who have developed our splendid church organizations, our business enterprises, our insurance companies and our splendid banks, with our splendid newspapers leading on before, exhorting the masses to higher and better things and standing like a vast mountain of strength for all of the just manhood and citizenship rights of the race. The masses of the race are following these constructive leaders rather than the self seeking politicians and agitators without visible means of support. If Mr. Garvey finds himself in the parasitical class it is his misfortune and not our responsibility. If he has reached the conclusion that the race is "corrupt and despised" for as a man thinks of others, so, logically, others are inclined irresistibly to think of him. The leader who does not believe in those he would lead cannot believe in himself, and he will start from nowhere and always fetch up nowhere. Mr. Garvey appears to have done this in the last analysis by failure to do the impossible things he started out to do. Loss Of The Y. M. C. A. the loss of the Y. M. C.

It will be hard for us most of our progressiveness in this com- without the advantages of a well or “Y” housed in creditable building such one the work has had the misfortune The loss of the Y. M. C. A. building on Queen street to the service to which it was built and dedicated is a matter greatly to be regretted. Not only is it a matter for our regrets, but its passing under the circumstances which it did pass constitutes a shame upon our citizenship. It will be hard for us to boast of our progressiveness in this community without the advantages of a well ordered "Y" housed in creditable building such as the one the work has had the misfortune to lose. The institution in late years seems to have foundered into a maze of financial difficulties, but these handicaps were no greater, and probably not as great, as were those under which it began functioning many years ago. It was delivered from chaos at that time by the staunch men of a generation back, many dead and not a few yet amongst us, whose spirit and zeal for a third of a century made it a credit to our race and to Christian enlightenment. It could have been extricated from its financial perils in these latter years, if the public had arisen from its lethargy, and properly sensed its responsibility to Negro youth. The board of directors strove hard to weather the storm that seemed to gather about it with increasing menace, but the community failed to respond and the building was enveloped by the financial stresses which had been crowding about it for years. However, lamenting over its loss is not in order now. It is the future existence of the Y. M. C. A. work with which we must at present be concerned. The work and its influence need not stop, and should not stop. Other buildings can be secured, probably not so pretentious and not so well equipped as the one loss, but a house can be had that will at least enable the work to go on until better provisions can be made. Movements having for their purpose the molding of boys into worthy and substantial men, among other races, here in our own city, flourish from the loyal support of their elders. The Boys Clubs, Boy Scouts, Y. M. C. A. and similar organizations move on to the development of the best that there is in white boys, while ours founder around and finally go-down because of lack of interest, and the race suffers. The responsibility is all ours. It makes no difference what may have been the past mistakes of the "Y" organization: the institution was dedicated to the development of the moral, spiritual and physical life of colored youth in Norfolk and that was a matter of the highest concern to us. During its thirty-five years of actual life it has been the means of inspiring hundreds of men and boys, many of whom are still living in Norfolk, while others are scattered throut other cities; and thus, Christianity has been pushed a little way onward, and it is our hope that the future influences of the "Y" will be greater than the past. The loss of that building is a glaring symptom of the chronic civic debility which seems to have possessed colored Norfolk and which needs to be treated with a strong dose of community revitalizing elixir administered by a pathologist well versed in the treatment and cure of civic disorders. The Autocrat of Johnstown Voted Out It has come to pass that Joseph Cauffiel, the Mayor of Johnstown, Pa., who ordered all Afro-American residents of the town who had not lived there seven years to get out "at once" and that those who remained should have all their citizen rights curtailed or denied, had madness in his method, and that it destroyed him. He was facing an election such as took place all over Pennsylvania for municipal and county officials, and his spasm of autocracy was, in fact, a bid for re-election. He thought he was appealing to the majority sentiment of Johnstown. It was the appeal of the demagogue, ignorant or defiant of the Constitutional rights of citizens—such appeals as demagogues often make successfully but more often unsuccessfully. Anyhow, the election came around at the appointed time and Joseph Caufiel, instead of being triumphantly re-elected to succeed himself, was void out of office. He could not have figured that he had the majority sentiment of Johnstown on his side. Politicians, both great and small, never figure themselves out of office, except by reading public sentiment by the left instead of by the right. That is the way demagogues should always be treated. It is their just portion. Police Brutality Justice Spindle handled Bowden and Patrolman characterized to cause regard for his ability and law impartiality force as a whole is not every one of them and discretion, and when arrest strikes an unarmed person who could be an eagle serness, it is assault and the uniform and is many cloak for it. A cop finds it necessary to hold evidence of cowardly murders in his prisoners in terms to have been but only, for officer Whitener, matter should be thought the police trial board. Assessed by Justice Spindle of the law in the case is raised as a to police on the force when he hears the law, moral and a police court fine. Each conduct as officer of that fosters friction to race outbreaks. Police Justice Spindle handled the case of Rudolphus Bowden and Patrolman Whitehead in a manner characterized to earn for him increased regard for his ability and inclination to administer the law impartially. The police force as a whole is a fine lot of men, but not every one of them is a man of courage and discretion, and when an officer in making an arrest strikes an unarmed and defenseless person who could be easily handled with a little sternness, it is assault, gross and fragrant, and the uniform and shield should not afford any cloak for it. A courageous officer seldom finds it necessary to use his club and it is good evidence of cowardice in one who generally brings in his prisoners after having beaten them. There seems to have been but slight provocation if any, for officer Whitehead's conduct, and this matter should be thoroughly investigated by the police trial board. Twenty dollar fine as assessed by Justice Spindle may meet the exigencies of the law in the case, but serious doubt is raised as to a policeman's fitness to remain on the force when he exhibits such disregard for the law, moral and statutory, as to merit a police court fine. It is such conduct as officer Whitehead was guilty of that fosters friction and often contribute to race outbreaks. The Modern Dance no question that the men in unregulated places is highly deserves the denial pulpit. That there is There is no question that the modern dance as practiced in unregulated places is demoralizing, and denightly deserves the denunciation of the press and pulpit. That there is evil in dancing without the immoral embellishments attach to it by the modern day craze is a question as old as the ages and one upon which mortal man will never agree, but we do not have to have an exceptionally keen sense of discrimination between the vulgar and the aesthetic to become convinced that some of the fads we have seen indulged in by our young people and old people, too, as terpsichorean art are positively degrading. There is but little that can be said in favor of the modern dance hall, and whenever we see a new one coming into existence we naturally feel skeptical and fearful for the well being of our people. We may not find it easy to eliminate them, but we can have and should have regulation and the best agency for that regulation is the municipality. However municipal regulation cannot be entirely effective without a large measure of responsibility for the conduct of these places attaching to the owners and lessees. The owners of the Phyllis Wheatley Garden have announced a forward looking moral policy for the conduct of their hall. If they succeed in conducting it under a censorship and with regulations which will have the effect of minimizing the evil influences that generally surround our social amusement centers they will have benefited society to that extent. This paper gives no measure of approval to dance halls as such, but it does urge that if we are to have them we should at least insist upon regulation and have self respect enough to patronize only those where an honest attempt at decency and refinement prevails.

Ledger Dispatch Lawlessness in one man or body of men is no excuse for lawlessness on the part of others in dealing with the offenders. In the early history of the country law and order leagues played their part and the need for them was real. But in this day the machinery of the law is organized and decisioning thirty-one countries of the country. Where the officers of the law do not perform their sworn duties, the trouble is with the officers themselves and not with the law. The legal remedy for such conditions is plain. In various portions of the United States recently there has been a disregard for law and an indifference to the rights of others which cannot be too strongly condemned. Near Sprine Pine, North Carolina, last week where one unidentified Negro was accused of an attack upon a white woman, a posse of citizens, hastily assembled, ordered all Negroes to leave the community. There was no justification of any such action, and the state authorities did well to once demand that those who were driven out be allowed to return in safety. Things like this simply goto show that when people once agreeate to themselves the right to execute the law there is no limit to the lengths which they will go. The local authorities in North Carolina were no doubt fully competent to deal with the situation which arose there, and if they were not, a call on the state forces would have met with a prompt response. There is never any excuse for mob law unless a community is in peril and there is no regularly constituted legal memory. If the country is to prosper and grow greater the people must be content to leave the administration of its laws in the hands of the properly constituted authorities. If any of these prove inefficient or untrustworthy they can and should be dispaced by others who will do their full duty. But there is no room for government by mobs.

States Army; served with distinction in the Great War, and attained the rank of "Captain" in 1919. This boy went to school, finished his college course and later, at the age of 32, became a "General," rising from "private" to that rank in 11 years. This is the record of General Moody Staten, Commander-in-Chief of the Army of the Republic of Liberia. This is not an accident; for at that time, the Libyan Government asked Uncle Sam to send a captain officer to head its army; the War Department recommended the Hughes, who in turn completed negotiations: NEXT WEEK'S WHATNOTS 49- Recall an incident which occurred at the battle of Monterey? 50- Did Negroes ever own and operate a Carnival? 51- Who was Mandibo? * * * A6- Recall an incident which occurred at the battle of Bueno Vista, during the Mexican War? Many incidents are on record of the gallantry of Negro soldiers and servants as soldiers in the war with Mexico. Colonel Clay, a son of Henry Clay, was accompanied into the thick of the battle of Buena Vista by Negro servant. He remained by his side for the fatal charge and saw Clay beaten his horse. Although surrounded by the murderous Mexicans, he succeeded in carrying the mangled body of his master from the field. 47—Who was the founder of the Normal and Industrial School at Davtona. Florida? The Normal and Industrial School for girls at Daytona, Fl., is one of America's leading schools for Negro girls. Founded in 1905 by Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune, its present Manager and Director, it has grown to be an institution with a plant valued at $235,000 and a student body of 350. It is fitting to note that the 18 years of single-handed effort of this woman of indomitable courage has resulted in a monument, not only to Negro womanhood, but American womanhood, but American womanhood, the Cookman Institute for men, and the unmarried with this fine school, and the combined schools under the able administration of Mrs. Bethune bids fair to become an Institution second to none on this continent. 46—Who is Commander-in-Chief of the Liberian Army?
