GUARDS PLACED AROUND BUILDING AND CAMPUS Tallahassee, Fla., Oct. 31—The Florida Agricultural and Mechanical College here has been broken up after holding the hopes of the after holding the hopes of the people and after building up for a period of thirty or more years. The immediate cause of the disruption is the blunders of a President who, it is claimed is inefficient and the animosity of the white people of Florida to the higher education of Negroes in the state. The Florida A. and M. College is the only school supported directly by the State for the education of Negroes under the constitution which declares that "equal provision must made" for both white and black, while it maintains two institutions of higher learning for white. The institution was headed by Prof. Nathan B.

William Gant, a colored mess attendant attached to the United States Naval Hospital. At Portsmouth, and a native of High Point, N. C., put himself in line for receiving a Carnegie Hero Medal at 6:30 Monday morning, when he plunged off the Norfolk and Portsmouth waters of the Elizabeth River and saved George Mathias, River, from drowning Mathias who is a deck hand onboard the ferry boat. New York, was operating the emergency electric landing gear on the lift bridge when he was thrown into the ferry slip after the handle of the windlass had struck him a stunning blow. Passengers became frantic at the sight of the man in the water, one of them tossing it to the preserve and to his Matias seemed to have been dazed by the blow and sank without making any effort to seize it. William Gant, the mess attendant, who was oncroute to the hospital came out of the colored waiting room on the Norfolk side and heard calls for help. He went to the edge of the slip and saw the apparently unconscious man sinking. The man went down once, then again and as he was going for the third time Gant leaped into the water and seized him. Catching hold of the man with a strong grin, he held his head above the water until both could be hoisted above. Mr. Gant says that he received all the reward he wants in the knowledge that he saved a man's life, and wishes for him a speedy recovery. Beyond that, he says he expects no reward. The local division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association went Mr. Gant the following note of appreciation: We wish to extend to you the appreciation of the Negro people of America for your heroism in saving a man from drowning at the Portsmouth-Nortok ferry wharf.

Out of Control of Government; Future Plans Unknown. MODEL HOMESTEAD HAS SUFFERED RECENTLY Truxtun.—The United States Housing Corporation project situated south of Portsmouth on the Deep Creek highway, and lying within the corporate limits of Portsmouth city, will be sold in a single tract to private interests. The Housing Corporation has already received bids from Norfolk and Portsmouth investors for purchase of the project. The bids range up to $250,000 to $250,000, with a entire treat including 260 house, 60 vacant lots, the school house, sewerage and public utilities. Portsmouth city will, however claim the sewerage, school house and utilities, by virtue of Truxtun being in the city corporation. Truxtun was built by the Housing Corporation acting under congressional sanction in 1918-19. It is an exclusive colored community and was built primarily to house government war workers employed at the United States Navy Yard at Norfolk and other centers of the country. The estimated cost of the project to the government has been variously placed around $2,000,000. When the town was thrown open during the height of war inflated prosperity the houses were quickly occupied. It was a most beautiful community and was given the sobriquet "Truxtun Beautiful." Fine-level green lawns—decked-with green clinging vines, flowers, plants and foliage of various sorts pre occupied the scene in the well ordered community. The citizens, being of a better element, set to work at once to protect the property and make the community an example of colored homeheads. Practically all of the settlers were purchasers of the Housing Corporation under a contract of sale. The prices of the houses, all being five rooms and bath, except the double houses, which have ten rooms and two baths, are sold at prices ranging from $1,200 to $2,600. The beautiful brick school house is one of the most modern in the State. It was not until the beginning of the Harding Administration that the industrial depression began to work havoc with Truxtun. 'The Town manager was relieved as an outcome of the administration's retrenchment policy and the affairs of the town were placed under the management of Craddock, a neighboring white government project. Following in the wake of the industrial and financial chaos thousands of government workers were layed off with the stoppage of work on the battleship North Carolina which was under construction at the North Yawl and the enormous discharges of between 2000 and 4000 workers. The unemployment wave was at its height. Truxtun purchasers were unable to meet the provisions of their purchase contracts. The government held off for some time and then began the cancellation of these contracts. The town began to become depleted and lost among those who remained and the houses with new purchasers failed. whole project has been going from bad to worse ever since, until now not more than half of the houses are occupied. Those few inhabitants left have made a valiant fight to hold on; to effect a readjustment of contracts and to meet current expense of maintaining the town. Now the government has decided to liquidate the properties. 'It is believed that this decision was reached after an attempt to refill Tuskegee Hospital Nurses Reinstated (By Associated Negro Press) D. Washington, D. C., Oct. 31—Evelyn D. Robinson, Della Wood; and Zelda H. Peck, the three nurses of the Veterans' Hospital, Tuskegee Institute, Ala., summarily suspended by Co. Stanley, since transferred from the hospital to New Mexico, have been vindicated. Investigation by the Veterans' Bureau disclosed that Col. Stanley had no just cause for the suspension, and therefore these nurses have been ordered by the Government to return to Tuskegee. Friends of the nurses, who have been interested in having the cases adjusted fairly, are now urging the government to pay the. back salaries of the nurses for the time of suspension, and for the extra expense they have been placed to by returning to their homes. WALTER BLOW, JR. THREE ACCUSED OF BEATING COLLECTOR THREE ACCUSED OF BEATING COLLECTOR Alleges That Agent Tried to Collect Installment At The Point of His Gun. Albert Gill, his wife and Elizabeth Perry, 329 Church St, were arranged in Police Court Monday morning on a charge of assaulting a collector for the "Union-Clothing Company. The defendants were represented by Attorney J. M. Harrison, who succeeded in securing for them a dismissal. According to testimony related at the trial the defendants claimed that the collector called at their residence Saturday about I. oflock asked me to take the court, said told the man he had not been paid off and had no money for him, at the same time going upstairs. The collector, he said, followed him up and when they reached his floor, flashed a revolver in his breast and said, "nigger you are going to pay me something today. Mrs. Gill and Elizabeth Perry screamed "not what I said" while the collector led him down stairs and across the streets with his gun on him. In the street he procured Gill's arrest. The collector denied that he drew his gun until the defendant had menaced him with an iron club. He said that he was invited up the steps when he asked for money and became suspicious which accounted for his getting his gun in a flash. He said that all three of the defendants attacked him. Thru a Mr. Powell, a white witness, Attorney Harrison endeavored to bring out that the collector had impersonated a police officer in telling the defendants and the witness too, that he was a detective was going to lock Gill up himself. The case was dismissed. Too Drunk To Have Criminal Intent Raleigh, N. C.—The Supreme Court of North Carolina handed down a decision of particular importance in criminal jurisprudence last week when it averred that when a man is intoxicated to the extent that he does not know what he is doing, he is not capable of the intent necessary for conviction of burglary in the first degree. The decision came out of the case of James Allen, an 18 year-old youth, who had been sentenced to die in the electric chair for alleged entry into the home of a Loussburg merchant, with the attack to attack his wife. The court ordered a new trial. Allen entered the home at night, hid under the bed in which the woman was sleeping and several times touched her, according to evidence adduced at the trial. Allen testified that he was drunk and knew not what he was doing. The refusal of the trial Judge to instruct the jury, that it was necessary for the state to prove that the defendant intended to attack the woman was made the basis of a new trial awarded by the Supreme tribunal.

NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1923 PUBLIC ASKED TO DONATE TO HELP A LEGLESS CHILD Little Eight Year Old Walter Blow Must Have Artificial Limbs To Attend School; Guide Starts Fund. STATE WILL PROVIDE AN EQUAL AMOUNT Look at the pleasant face of the little boy in the picture on this page. He is eight years old and a bright little child. But he has never been to school and is doomed to grow up in absolute ignorance unless the sympathetic people of Norfolk come to his rescue. He has no legs and cannot walk to school. His parents are poor people and are able to provide him only with a home, food, clothes and parental attention. Cork legs are expensive and his mother and father have small hope of ever being able to furnish him—a pair. His name is Walter Blow and he lives at 750 St. Paul street. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Blow. Little Walter lost his legs when he was 19 months old under the wheels of a Norfolk and Western locomotive that he strayed from him and met with the accident which left him a cripple for life. Vocational Director, Acts. Thin the humanitarian efforts of Mr. Rhydingsvard, director of vocational education for the city of Norfolk, the attention of this newspaper was called to the plight of this child. Mr. Rhydingsvard has taken his case to the State Industrial Commission in an effort to secure funds to purchase a pair of cork-legs for him in order that he may learn to use them now in his infancy, and attend school. According to the vocational director of Norfolk, the price of the artificial limbs, which is $85.00 if the colored people of Norfolk will raise the other half. $85.00. Today the Journal and Guide starts a fund to raise the $85.00 with a donation of $5.00. The citizens of Norfolk are asked to respond to this appeal and send donations care of this paper. Walter Blow, Jr., is a normal child in every way, except he is minus his legs. If he is helped now he will have an opportunity to get help to get the willow tree will see to that. In discussing the case with the Journal and Guide, the director stated that it would be nothing less than criminal and a shame on society to allow this unfortunate child to grow up in dismal ignorance, and he asked that the paper send out the appeal for him. Think of your little boy with two fine legs to run and runp and play. Little Walter tries to run too, and he manages to pitifully drag himself around. He does not do well. But you do. Will you help him? This child is a ward of society. It is true that he has parents, but since eight years have passed without his condition being helped the responsibility reverts to the community. Make checks payable to Walter Blow Fund, care Journal and Guide. Names of donors will be announced in these columns. Suffers Paralytic Stroke In Church Mrs. S. P.

The brilliant costumes contribute much in balancing the effects. LLOYD GEORGE HEARS MAN DIES OF HEART RACE GLEE CLUB SING STAB; WOMAN HELD SUFFOLK WHITES TO BUILD HOMES FOR RACE LABOR Chamber of Commerce Plans Erection of Industrial Community With 200 Healthful Houses For Colored People. WILL RENT AND SELL AT MODERATE PRICES According to a letter written to the Manufacturers Record of Baltimore a part of which appeared in a magazine of the Publication and written by Mr. Harry La Jacob, of Suffolk, that community has begun the inauguration of a program for bettering the living conditions of its colored people that appears to be one of the most comprehensively thought out since this problem has been engaging the attention of forward thinking Southern white people. It is a program which if carried out according to the plans set out in Mr. Jacob's letter will prove to be one of the best plans of community investment in good citizenship, good health and human advancement attempted by white people for colored people in the history of the country. Chairman of Committee Mr. Jacob is chairman of a committee of the Suffolk Chamber of Commerce which is formulating the Industrial Housing Commission the concern, which has charge of the program. The following excerpts from Mr. Jacobs' letter as appealed in the Manufacturers Record explains what Suffolk plans to do in the way of making secure its supply of New England and healthful race citizenship: "A meeting will be held by the building committee to organize, apply, for charter, incorporate, issue stock and buy land. We propose to start work as early as possible on 100 homes and later to build another 100, the development to be known as the Colored Industrial City of Suffolk, Va. Cash bonuses will be offered colored tenants each year for the best kept home and 15 third price $50, second 15 third $10 and fourth $25. "In this way we propose to educate the Negroes up to being clean and keeping their homes clean and up to date by having plenty of grass, flowers and gardens. The homes will all be built on lots 50 by 150 feet, with cement walks and shade trees, all houses to be set back 25 feet from the street and all to be nicely painted. This corporation will be composed mostly of manufacturers. It will rent the houses the manufacturer direct and he will rent them to his employees and deduct the rent from their pay each week. "We propose to rent the houses for two dollars per week, and also to sell at very nearly cost and on easy payments, when we find an employee who wants to buy. One hundred homes are already rented 50 to the Planters Nut and Chocolate Co., and 50 to the Bell Hosiery Mills. I studied out this plan of building colored homes and renting them direct to the manufacturer to save the loss and trouble of collecting weekly from the Negroes and to relieve shortage of labor caused by the shortage of homes." The dwellings will cost from $600 to $1,000 each and will contain five to seven rooms. Famous Britton Entertained By Sabbath Glee Club in Home of Host, John Stewart Bryan. Richmond, Va.—Hon. David Lloyd George, wartime premier of Great Britian, who is seeing the United States for the first time, was entertained at Laburnum, the handsome mansion of Mr. John Stewart Bryan, publisher of the Richmond News Leader, and host of the distinguished Britton during his stay in this city, Sunday night by the Sabbath Glee Club, an organization of colored singers. The ex-Premier was very much pleased with the short program which included many Negro spirituals and highly complimented Joseph Matthews, the director. "That is one of the best male choirs I have ever heard," he said, "and I am almost certain it is the best. I heard a group of twelve Negro singers in England and I remember some of their numbers as those, you have just completed. They are wonderful." G. O. P. Sends Perry Howard Into Maryland To Check Democrats Administration Office Holder Chosen to Attempt to Hold Race Electorate In Line in Hot Gubernatorial Contest. STATE DEMOCRATIC VICTORY INDICATED Special to The Journal and Guide Salisbury, Md., Oct. 31—The first Negro national prominence to be offered to stem the tide of Democratic victory in the elections of November 6 is Perry W. Howard, special assistant to the Attorney General, Washington, D. C. He spoke here last night in the interest of the Armed Services chief of the government. The meeting was under the auspices, of the Republican state committee. Ritchie an Opportunist In his address, Mr. Howard fayed the Democratic party in general and gave credit to the Republican party for all that has been done for the Negro politically. "It is true that the Republican party has not done all for the Negro that it might have done," he said, "but the fact remains that it has done for the Negro all that has been done. Every piece of beneficial legislation on the statute books—national or state—has been put there by Republicans. Every iniquitous piece of legislation has been written by the Democrats." Referring to Mr. Armstrong, he held him out as the representative of the national party in Maryland and commended his record as the Attorney General of the State and declared that "the has stood unquestionably for the rights of the interests of all the people, irrespective of race or color. "Governor Ritchie is only an opportunist during this campaign with a record of having done absolutely nothing in recognition of the manhood rights of the Negro during his present term of office. He has failed to make a single outstanding appointment. "After a thorough investigation into the objects, purposes and practices of the Ku Klux Klan, I want to advise that our group leave this proposition alone, as it is principally a fight between Catholic and protestants, with the racial issue secondary. Since we have so many fights we must wage alone—such as lynching, proscription and jim crowism—we behooves us to side with the Klan proscription and the brunt of the fight full upon the shoulders of Catholics and Jews for we have both friends and foes among Catholics as well as Klansmen." Democratic Victory: Seen The indications are that the Democratic State ticket will be returned the victor. The Klu Klu attack on Governor Ritchie is having the effect of encouraging the colored electorate to vote the Democratic ticket, although the Republicans have denied that they have courted the Klan vote. It is with a view to preventing a bolt of Republican votes from the Republican party that colored Republicans of national prominence are being called into the state. However, it is very much like sending for a doctor when an undertaker is needed. Sam Short Succumbs to Knife Wound Inflicted by Sarah Mitchell; Funeral Held Last Sunday. The funeral of Samuel Short, 1663 Hunter Street, age 21, who died at St. Vimentin's Hospital as the result of a stab wound in the left breast inflicted by Sarah Mitchell, 920 Winter Street, was held at Second Calvary Baptist Church, Sunday with Rev.

CITIZENS' CLUB GIVES BANQUET Civic Organization of Berkley Ward, Launches a Sane Program for Racial Betterment The Citizens' Club of Berkley ward, composed of a number of representative colored citizens of that section and an organization with experience in providing ties for racial betterment, held its first informal assembly at the club quarters over the Progressive drug store Wednesday night. This club was organized about four months ago and a number of people of Norfolk and vicinity were invited to attend its first informal affair in order to be made acquainted at first hand with the purposes and ideals of the club. Its membership consists of a younger element of Negroes, who are making good in their chosen fields, and who possess a keen appreciation of the importance of 100 percent citizenship and as implied in its name, the club purposes to stress as far as its influence will reach the value of American citizenship as expressed in the exercise of the suffrage. At Westview High's meeting Dr. F. F. Bradley, the president in an opening address which outlined the club's purposes laid special emphasis upon this phase of American life as pertains to the Negro. The Doctor graphically recited some of the inequalities in community benefits, and the disproportionate expenditure of public monies as regards the races, as evils that will be remedied only thru the ballot in the hands of same and intelligent Negroes, who are the poor, the poor and the nation. "There are many evils affecting our race which must be attacked under sane leadership," said Dr. Bradley, "but we must first prepare ourselves as 100 per cent American citizens." He explained that the club will work for a larger percentage of qualified race voters in this community and will conduct regular classes in citizenship. The youth of the race will be trained in the first principles of good citizenship in order to cause," said Dr. Bradley. "Our young men and women must be taught the obligations that they owe this nation, and the obligations the nation owes them." The welcome address was made by Dr. A. B. Green, who spoke upon the same subject and with an easy flow of eloquence welcomed Mr. E. C. Pinner, who was made by Mr. Cliffon E. Willis, Mr. E. C. Pinner, and Mr. J. E. Merritte, of Norfolk, after which Dr. Hiram Mosely responded with a fervent plea for race solidarity; for trained and loyal citizenship as a supreme regard for a participation in political government: After the speech making a banquet was served.

Entrance on Monticello Ave., Ninth and Granby Streets BE SURE AND BRING THIS ADD GREAT REVIVAL WITH EIGHTY CONVERSIONS Jerusalem Baptist *Closes Momentous Big* Membership *under Dr. Hobbs.* M. R. H. Dr. Hobb it was fortunate in securing the services of the Adams pastor of Metropolitan Baptist Church, Portsmouth to do the preaching. Dr. Adams seemed to have been at the pul- three weeks preached the gospel of Christ with the desired effect. Rev. J. H. Crow, of North Carolina, who was in the city visiting his daughter, was an ardent worker in the meeting, rendering appreciative service each night." Drs. Hobbs, Adams and Crow in this meeting were an effective spiritual trio, the distinguished extender of the invitation, the preacher and the singer. This spiritual battery was too powerful, and eighty persons submitted and confessed the Christ. Rev. Adams assisted Rev. Hobbs in extending the hand of fellowship to seventy-five converts. Dr. Adams is fitted in every way to deliver the message and make the way of salvation so plain for those who desire to know Christ. Jerusalem Baptist Church was purchased from a white congregation some years ago. It is a most beautiful church edifices in the city. Dr. Hobbs took pastoral charge here nine years ago. Upon his coming he found the membership small and an indebtedness of $27,000. Under the charge of this young and progressive pastor the membership increased and the debt reduced to less than $6,000. Dr. Hobbs is accomplishing a great work in this field and with a loyal congregation and wide-awake leader such as he is, great possibilities appear to be in store for this church.

C.—Howard eleven mowed down Morehouse "huskies," the famous southern team of Atlanta, in spectacular gridiron contest played at the American League Park, Friday afternoon, October 26th, to the time of 10 to 0. The Morehouse "Tigers," pride of Atlanta and the far South, traveled up to Washington with blood in their eyes, and left with tears in their eyes. The score was seized by a draw by Domenic, Captain and Left Half back on the Howard team, and a touchdown with extra point by drop-kick. The victory over Morehouse gives Howard another win-for the season. Howard having thus far kept her goal uncrossed in the four games played. During the first period the two eleven tests each other out kicking back and forth out of danger territory most of the time. Doneghy, Howard's left half Back and Captain, kicked off to Morehouse's 12 yard line. Kelley, Morehouse Right Half Back and Captain received the punt, but was dropped in his traction and had to kick. Blackman Howard's phicky little Quarterback bringing the ball far up the field to the opponent's 20 yard line before being dropped. A forward pass on fourth down failed to connect and the ball went back to Morehouse. A penalty to Howard and a pretty 24 yard run by Jordan, Fullback for Morehouse, brought the ball to Morehouse's 48 yard line but was a kicked field goal being kicked on the fourth down. Doneghy immediately kicked back out of danger. Kelley attempted two forward passes for Morehouse but both failed and again the pigskin was kicked back and forth. Toward the end of the period, with the ball in Howard's possession, Morehouse was penalized 15 yards for tripping, and Doneghy made two good off-tackle plays with gains of 8 and 4 yards each. On the arcing line he kicked Hutt, the "Tigerus" Quarterback, received the punt on his own 10 yard line but in trying to escape the Howard end who torched upon him, he was forced back to his 3 yard line. The first quarter ended. 'Then, as the Morehouse center snapped the ball, "Bulldog" Williams, Howard's brilliant Left-End and last year's Captain tore through the "Tigers" line and forced Kelley to kick prematurely. The ball sailed only about 10 yards and Peyton the "Bison's" plunging Full-Back received the ball and brought it back to the opponent's 2 yard line. In a straight buck through center Peyton carried the ball to within 2 inches of the goal line, and Doneghy carried the ball over for a touchdown, and added another point by successfully drop-kick-ing the ball. Soon after the ball had been kicked off again, Doneghy made a beautiful drop-kick from the 33 yard line, the ball bouncing on the cross-bar and going over for 3 more points to Howard's credit. At the start of the final period, "Bulldog" Williams grabbed two forward passes in quick succession from the air for gains of 3 and 8 yards. The short gains were due to the fact that the ball was not caught in open territory. A skillfully executed lateral pass by Morehouse brought the stands to the feet as Starr, Tiger's Left-End, raced around Howard's right end for 20 yards before being stopped. During the last few minutes, after being hit, the ball was captured a long forward pass which netted Morehouse. 25 yards and brought the ball to Howard's 15 yard line. It looked as though Morehouse would score, but instead they fumbled and Howard recovered the ball, keeping it in the Southeners territory till the final whistle blew. It was a hard, scrappy game throughout. The Atlanta boys played hard, but the Washington boys played harder. Concee. Right Half-Back, who was badly dazed in the final period, and "Speed" Johnson, Right-End, who was also injured in the last period, played a sterling game for Howard. Williams, Priestley, and Smith also did good work. Captain Kelley was the outstanding player on the red and white team. His forward passing, line plunging, and general defensive work was all consistently good.

A. & T. DEFAETS ST. AUGUSTINE 36-0 Episcopalians Fall Before Terrific Onslaught of North Carolina "Aggies." Greensboro, N. C.—October 27—St. Augustine's School of Raleigh, N. C, met a scoreless defeat at the hands of A. and T. College in a hard but cleanly fought game here on Dudley Field. A. and T. kicked off to St. Augustine's 40 yard line. After receiving the ball St. Aug, was held for a couple of downs, after which they attempted to use the aerial attack without success. "Horse" Lane, full back for A. and T. intercepted a forward pass and ran twenty yards for the first touchdown. During the second quarter A. & T. failed to cross the line. The period was marked by terrific line smashes on the part of A, and T., and splendid defense on the part of St. Augustine. In the third period, St. Augustine kicked to A, and T., on her 20 yard line. The ball was received by Bell, the swift quarterback of A, and T., who ran 40 yards before he was down. The Aggries then kicked the ball smashed again, after several short snaps that they succeeded in making another touchdown byushing Coleman directly through center, where "Doubledeck" Patterson had opened a large hole. At the beginning of the fourth quarter, St. Aug. returned to the attack with renewed vigor. Upon receiving the ball, Freeman, right half-back of St. Aug. ran 80 yards to A. and T.'s 10 yard line, before being downed by Forbes, flashed y of A. and T., to whom credit must be given for keeping the visitors from seizing. When downed, Freeman appeared in the ball which seized by Coleman, A. and T.'s right half-back, who galloped 90 yards for a touchdown. A. and T., by end runs and short line plunges again crossed the line for the final touchdown. LOWE—FOUR A. and T. ST. AUG. Forbes R. E. Crutchins Cunningham R. T. Manning Coles R. G.

T ON FO ST. PAUL SWAMPS LIVINGSTONE COLLEGE Douglas' Machine Uses New Plays; Carolinians Helpless Before Consistent Attack. Lawrenceville, Va., Oct. 27.—Coming here with fast and rugged hacks stalwart and fierce tackling forwards, which form the great pigskin machine built up around All-Southern tackle Meeks and "Great" Duncan, and bent on winning an easy victory over St. Paul, Livingstone College received a rude jolt, and had to be content with a 50 to 0 defeat which is the worst disaster that the boys from the Old North State have ever met. As one remarked, The Tartans of show, the nearest they ever reached the "promised land" was St. Paul's 38 yard line." St. Paul's new shift, faciously known as the "Dirthouse Fade-away," was a nightmare to the Livingstone players. A big crowd cheered the vanquished for their efforts, determination, stubborn resistance, clean and persistent fight, and the victor for their genuine sportmanship, strategy and superiority. Livingstone won the toss and chose to receive. St. Paul kicked to Livingstone's 15 yard line. The ball rolled to the 2½ yard line before being covered. St. Paul's ends downed Livingstone's back where he picked up the ball. Failing to gain an inch through the line, Livingstone kicked to St. Paul's 45 yard line. With the able assistance of Blackwell, Pierce, Burrell, Coleman, and Boykins, who also were the Tigers main bulwark, Collins, Captain Parker, Walker and Williams rushed the ball for four first downs and a touchdown. St. Paul missed the extra point. St. Paul again kicked off to Livingstone, and the ball was kicked back to goal line. The Blue and Black were downed on their eight yard line, Livingstone kicked on the first play. The kick was poor and St. Paul received the ball on the visitors' 30 yard line. Again the Orange and Black plunged their way through for a touchdown. The "try" for point went bad. St. Paul received the third kick-off, plunged the line three times, and the period ended. Livingstone played their best in the second period. They made a desperate struggle, and, while they gave way to St. Paul's enslaughter and almost succumbed to the local's tactics, they managed to hold St. Paul to 6 points in this act. Punting by both teams, and St. Paul's new plays featured the period. The third and fourth periods upset the morale of the visitors. St. Paul sent in a couple of fresh backs and three linenen, among the latter was Edmond Miller, Gardner's All-American tackle for 1922. These men guided by the punch of the muscular vision with the Tarheels. Forward passes, line dashes and stellar end runs nutted St. Paul two touchdowns in the third performance. From a beautiful place-kick, Walker added a point. St. Paul ran amuck in the fourth frame and scored nineteen points. Walker's place-kick, Maddux's strategy and brilliant playing, Sumur's 80 yd, run, Cooke's generalship, and Seriber's during feat, the grasping of the ball, and Livingstone's goal line, after it momentarily appeared in the hands of Livingstone's safe man, for a touchdown were the main attractions of the final act. St. Paul made 21 first downs against 1 for Livingstone and that Book your 1923—24 Season Phyllis Wheatle Jal Book your 1923-24 Season Social Dates Now Prices for Social Gatherings: For Night, $45.00 Matinee, $35.00 Breakfast, $30.00 Apply to LONNIE WIL Phyllis Wheatley Garden B FREE SERVICE A column has been reserved in this paper to be devoted to brief announcements of events scheduled to be held in the future, absolutely free in all cases where the printed matter, such as tickets, placards, programs, etc. for the same have been furnished by our job printing department.

Lack of co-ordination and frequent pennshtrdm wmwbkgw hndiftwddgd allies coupled with the determined grit of Shaw's outweighed team prevented a larger score. The stars for Shaw were, Forshaw, Stewart and Gill. Union's outstanding players were, Miller, Pentress and Martin.

Get Your Prize WINNING VOTES NOW 6 BIG GOLD AWARDS. 10 PER CENT COMMISSION How You Can Get A Flying Start and Head the List of Contestants Just to make it plain how votes mount up: Send in your nomination and your subscription for one year, get ten others to give you their subscription for the same period, and, here you are, at the top of the list: No one, as yet, has a decided advantage. If you don't take advantage of this opportunity it is because you have no use for the Hudson Super Six Coach or one of the money prizes we are offering our wide awake, up-to-date and ambitious readers.

We are now entering the second period of this campaign—you have not taken advantage of it—neither has the other fellow, to any great extent as the published list will show. The Hudson Super Six Coach and the many money awards will be won in the next three weeks of "spare time" effort. The list have been cleared of an non-active members. Those who were nominated still have an equal opportunity to compete, to date they have not been able to see the wonderful opportunity they are delibrate passing up. If they wish to take advantage of this opportunity it is only necessary for them to send in submissions to the Journal and Guide and you will be pleased to enroll their name among the active, contestants. As this list of active contestants is so small, the logical conclusion is that you just can't afford to stay out-while the others are striving to win the wonderfully worth while awards. So don't wait. Do it how. Clip your nomination coupon, mail it in, then get 'busy and stay busy.' There is plenty of room for more active contestants. The list of those active could be tripped without depriving you of the opportunity to win. Look Over List Look over the list of active contestants published today and you will agree with us there is still room for you to get in now and are not doing business to geography with and there is no reason why YOU should jet "dead timber" block your path to success. The list shows that scattered from one end of the south to the other, are spots of "virgin territory," unattached by any contestant and awaiting the ambitious activities of some HUSTLER to produce a rich harvest of VOTES. In many of the localities listed no active campaign is being wage and we are again appealing to all prospective contestants not to stand back where 'dead timber' is blocking the path to pleasure and easy gain. But to get busy and the other fellow do the worrying. If your locality is not represented honestly to goodness confidently, the nomination and show the others that you intend putting your community on the map. Remember the campaign is young. No one has much of a start as yet, and the sending in of your nomination, may be the means of you getting that wonderfully good coach you have always avoided much. If you have ever had a desire to own one, don't for the love of Petb. over-look this opportunity, it will never come again. If you could see this opportunity as we do, you would not hostile one you spared time to get busy today. What you have not been able to get with all of your time and savings to date. If the possibility of winning $500,000 a week for three consecutive weeks of your spare time appeals to you, let us know and we will be glad to enroll you among those who have the ambition to try for it. There are no losers in this campaign, except those who become discouraged and quit. AND QUITTERS are not expected to win. They never have—They never will. You want one of the prizes?

Jessie Williams was the first to add to the city's coffers Monday morning with $5.00 and costs for having treated himself in a pre-Volstead style. Jessie did not deny that he was drunk when arrested. Hugh Scott, Walter Scott and William Shepard paid $5.00 and costs each for unlawful gaming. The trio denied that they ever bet a cent on the ivories, alleging that they were just having a little wholesome pastime with a deck of cards when the arresting officer appeared. + + + Hattie Smith simply shook her head when the complaining officer said "dunk" and Justice Spindle answered $5.00 and costs." Henry Lewis and Annie Armstrong went on to Federal Court on a narcotic charge. Alfred Rhodes, a white-haired old gent, simply poked pity when the arresting officer said "dunk." Five dollars and costs were assessed against him, which Rhodes was without at that particular time. He went back to the pen, but before court was over a white friend appeared with the spenduld and the old man left with a smile. Mosses Brown, Wright Hoggard Aleck Jones, Woodson Robinson and James Gaskins, arrested at $28 Powell Street, Saturday night for unlawful gaming were fined $10.00 and costs, except Brown who drew a fine of $25.00 and costs. One of the defendants testified that he went to Brown's place to collect a debt of a dollar a man there owed him and before he could make his collection the raid was staged. Another of the accusations was that he would pay a man fifty cents he owed him and was arrested before the transaction was completed. And still another testified that he "just went there" because he goes there often to hargue out. Justice Spindle reminded them that Moses Brown's place was a bad place to go on business because Moses has been arrested more times for gambling than any man in Norfolk. Dennis Ferebee limped into police court leaining on a stick and Lottie Foreman, followed, behind him. Dennis said Lottie hit him with a brick Saturday night. Lottie admitted throwing the brick at Dennis, but avered that he started the trouble and had been "bothering me all day." Ferebee was allowed to go, but Lottie was required to pay five dollars and costs for her liberty and, of course she didn't regain it. She expressed much amazement at having to pay five dollars for hurling a brick at a man who had been bothering her all day. Charles Hayes and Sarah Wyatt declared that the thing the policeman called fighting was "just playing between them." The officer said he saw Sarah Hayes block Hayes and led, but Hayes stuck to his testimony that they were simply love licks. He said. "We told the policeman when he came that we were "just playing." They paid five and costs each for their little play. 2 TABLETS Every 3 Hours BREAKS THAT COLD Hills Cascara Bromide Quinine will break your cold in one day.

Lillian Johnson, Helen Dozier, John Winslow, "Cud Dick" and a number of others, according to the arresting officers were lit up with cawn Sunday morning at a Nicholson street house. Attracted by the hilarity, the officer said he went to investigate as it was about $\Sigma$ A. M. They began to rave they were so excited the cawn was unwelcome to the party. The policeman said that he could do nothing with Lillian and in court Lillian was still breezy. When asked by the Judge what she had to say, she only kimboed back with a wide grin. Justice Spindle admonished her to stand up at the same time informing her that she was not alone while the others were let off with five and costs. Lillian didn't seem to mind as she went back to the pen still gay. ↑ ↑ ↑ William Carter, a longshoreman employed at the Army Base, seems to have got tired waiting for the truck to bring him back to Norfolk. While the driver was away Carter mounted the seat and stepped on the gas. He was heading for the city, when overtaken by driver who had mounted the ruffled passenger gut. He was accused of larceny of automobile. Carter testified that a white man for whom he worked, but whose name he had never learned told him to get in the truck and drive it off. Justice Spindle dismissed the larceny charge, but as Carter did he assessed $20.00 and he operated an automobile without license. Carter wanted the court to take his fine on the installment plan, five dollars which he had in his pocket and the remainder when he could get in touch wit his employers. Elijah Perry was given a horse and wagon and $20.00 cash Saturday morning by a white man who told Perry to buy and sell vegetables on shares. Perry did not return with either up to late Saturday night. When the owen went in search of his horse, wagon, horse and carriage, his property parked near the curb on Church street and Highland avenue. That is all except the twenty bucks, which Perry swore he lost. Perry's story was so thin that he drew a fine of $20.00 and costs and went to the pen in default. Ella Culter was charged with collecting. She denied the charge with force, said that she had never in her life done such a thing. Se was dismissed on this charge and fined five and costs for the possession of obscene pictures. Confab On Problems Confronting Race Orange, N. J.—Arrangements are being made by Civics, an organizations composed of public spiited citizens of Orange, for a conference on problems confronting the colored citizens, to be held early in November. Civics is an organization which has been responsible for a great deal of the progressive legislation in New Jersey. Acting on a suggestion of former Assemblyman, Dr. W. G. Alexander, it has called a conference between this organization and a representative group of colored citizens from North Jersey. Topics to be taken up at this conference include the housing situation, the rent profiting among the colored population the coal situation and the prices paid by the laboring people, especially those compelled to use the land in school population owing to the influx of the colored people from the South, increased caution required on the part of the health officials owing to the overcrowding of tements. It is planned o make this conference a permanent body which will deal with those inter-racial contacts which are likely to cause friction. What Husbands Are In This Writer's Class Never Was a Woman Born Who Was Satisfied With the Man She Married. By C. E. BYRNE National Association of Music Merchants There never was a woman born who was satisfied with the man she married. She always makes him over, or, rather, she mistakes his gradual disintegration for something constructive in her own handiwork. The universal husband! Pathotic, bedraggled scarecrow in trousers. No wonder men always answer their country's call to arms. It is far easier to face quick death on the battlefield than slow death beside the domestic hearth. At home they are helpless, numb. Things overtake them, fasten on them while they are asleep. Whichever way they go, it is not the way of their choice. They are pushed along from behind, never doing any of the things they desire, never wanting any of the things they get. Poor universal husband! As the blaze of trumpets and the swirl of smoke gradually die down on the feminist battlefront, an unbiased eye sees, still breathing, but spiritually dead, a pathetic, bedraggled sort of scarecrow in trousers—the universal husband! The universal husband, made out of all the promising little boys in the world, of only a few by women from the moment he expands his lungs at birth until he contracts them (often wilfully) at the moment of death. {Women have very little honesty, no modesty and no sense of shame. They cannot afford such fairy-book luxuries: Real honesty, modesty and a sense of shame are not things with which to catch a husband. They cannot possess some of these abnormal qualities. That is why they remain maiden ladies. A woman cannot be frail. She is not frail. She is a tigress. She is not helpless. She can move mountains, and does if she is not always given her way. If she were helpless the universal husband would know how to provide for her, how to place her in his relation to a struggle for existence. But he does not know where to find the perfect moment, in unexpected places, and acts as a positive menace to his psychology and to his business career. Heard Around Town By A.

Author of Simm's Blue Book, etc. In case of a business engagement one who breaks it without due notice to all other parties concerned, if it is possible to give such notice, is guilty of an unpardonable negligence. Often times questions of the greatest importance, of which all parties to an appointment may not be aware, hinges upon the development of some fact if the appointment were kept by all parties, would be successfully carried out, it cease to disappoint on an occasion of this sort may cause great financial loss, as well as a loss of confidence in and respect for the party who disregards this engagement. It is therefore necessary that before entering into an important engagement, that one carefully consider whether they will be able to keep it or not and where there is any doubt notify the other party at the time of your probable inability to meet him. Then all considerations based upon this appointment should be considered. Great fortunes are often lost; great losses are often deemed to failure; successful ventures are often spoiled; loss of reputations and even life is often times the result of some one's failure to keep his appointment.

It is strange that some people will break an engagement or disappoint on the most important occasions for the most frivolous reasons—reasons that are not worth the least casual consideration. On the other hand, a person may not be at the appointed place to do the thing he promised to do at the time he promised to do it. An appointment or an engagement will throw three o'clock means sixty minutes past two o'clock; and not sixty-five minutes past two o'clock.

Brandon Son of Portsmouth Man wins Fight Against Georgia. New York, October 26.—An extradition case has been won in the state or New Jersey and there is one tolored man who walks free instead of being returned to Georgia. The case was won by William B. Brandon, lawyer, of 164 Market Street, Newark, N. J., in the case of Lockhart Drake, a colored man for whose return to Georgia extrication procedures had been begun. Mr. Brandon received the cooperation of the N. A. A. C. P. which telegraphed Governor Silzer of New Jersey, requesting that he use his influence in the case. Attorney Brandon writes thanking the N. A. A. C. P. and saying that although Governor Silzer consented to hold signing the extrication papers in response to this testimony, a hearing before the Governor was not necessary as Mr. Brandon obtained release of Drake by court action, winning his concession that the arrest of Drake had been illegal. Attorney William B. Brandon is the son of Mr. William Brandon of Kirk Road, extended Portsmouth, Va., and is a successful practitioner of New Jersey. PLYMOUTH Pinnacle, N.

DEMANDS HOUSTON MARTYRS HARVARD EXPEL KLAN Campaign to Free Convicted Members of 24th. Infantry Stirs Justice-Loving People. New York, October 26.—James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored Peole, today issued a statement saying that the campaign for the freeing of the 54 members of the 24th Infantry still imprisoned in Leavenworth Penitentiary for their share in the Houston riot, had met with unprecedented enthusiastic response throut the nation. "Not only ought we to have the 100,000 signatures, with which we hoped to go before President Coolidge, asking him to pardon the 54 members of the 24th Infantry who are still in prison," said Mr. Johnson, but we ought to have a considerable number above that figure, far higher than the number of country but has spread the news of this campaign to free the Houston Martyrs. Churches and fraternal organizations have taken it up and signatures are being obtained by the thousand everywhere. One colored man, in New York City, took petitions into the offices of the Standard Oil Building, andough those petitions have not yet been filed, so the high officers of the Standard Oil Company have signed them. I want to say a special word about the work of fraternal organizations. They have been spreading the word about this campaign and turning in large numbers of signatures. The churches, too, have been responding valiantly to the campaign, the church services on Sunday, November 11, Houston Martyrs' Day, will make an impression on the entire nation. It should be remembered that November 11, is also Armistice Day, the day that marked the end of the great war in which colored American soldiers played such an important part. ColoredAmericans have found a stirring task in this campaign and I am glad to say that they are upstanding and clean boys in Leavenworth Penitentiary, will be able to walk out of there, free men."

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People today sent a telegram to the President and Board of Overseers of Harvard University stating that it would be better to close Harvard than to permit the Ku Klux Klan to gain influence on those responsible for bringing the Klan to Harvard be expelled. This action of the N. A. A. C. P. follows reports in the newspapers of Klan organization in Harvard. The Harvard *Crimson*, the University daily, was quoted as predicting a Klan drive for membership in the University. The *Crimson* was quoted as asserting editorially that Harvard's non-discrimination policy of last year had brought about this new Klan activity. The Klan is also reported to be ready to launch a membership drive in addition, the women's auxiliary of Harvard. The *Crimson* is quoted as saying editorially: "Whether or not the action of the University last year, in decreeing the policy of non-descrimination, tended to increase Klan member-plank in the open question, plank in the question, plural platform bearing on the subject is well known, and what part of it the Harvard branch stands for may be only a matter of degree. But it is certain that the decision of last year is final for violent demonstration in meetings of the Harvard Klan." A Refill Broom Comes Into Vogue In this issue of this paper is an advertisement of the Fuller Broom. The broom is made of Aztec fibre and is novel in the fact that it is a refill utility for which new refills can be bought when the old bristles are worn out. This household necessity is reputed to be very serviceable and guaranteed to outlast several dinners' supply. Being a firm house to house salesmen who will thorily demonstrate to the housewife beshe is asked to purchase it. The following are a few pointers the makers of this broom give to housewives about brooms: "Buying a bromm may be an exceedingly simple matter to many persons. In fact some women telephone their grocer for a "bromm" and often receive the profit, which makes the profit profit, profit, a fair one but often the reverse. For this reason many housewives now prefer to inspect brooms and other cleaning implements before purchasing them. The tremendous demand for PORD makes it easy to build a profitable business. Brooms should be selected on the merits of the handle, material used, and workmanship. The handle should be either natural finish or varnished, as painted handles may conceal wood which is defective. Fibre has been found much more satisfactory for brooms than varnish. The fibre used in brooms has used which is exceedingly brittle and coarse and soon the broken stems scrap polished floors or become lop-sided."

Poor Credit Rating Credit is the foundation upon which is built and the pivot around which revolves the world's business, and the truth of this assertion is so universally accepted that it has become trite ther iteration. But human nature is so ordered that we have only slight regard for the fundamental verities of the universe, which probably accounts for so many people disregarding their credit ratings.

But confidence is more than the foun- Credit is the foundation upon which is built and the pivot around which revolves the world's business, and the truth of this assertion is so universally accepted that it has become trite thru iteration. But human nature is so ordered that we have only slight regard for the fundamental verities of the universe, which probably accounts for so many people disregarding their credit ratings. As credit furnishes the sinews of commerce, so does confidence beget credit and character is that quality which gives the vital spark to both. But confidence is more than the foundation of trade; it is the tendon that knits together the fabric of human society into an orderly functioning whole. Without it the superstructure of human relations would fail and man would revert into a dismal state of isolation. Credit is merely an outward expression of confidence; and character mirrored thru the channels of trade. It is a most precious estate and the enjoyment of it puts one in close communion with his fellows whom he has not seen and may never see in the remotest parts of the globe. A man without credit is the poorest of men. There is an unwritten rule in the inner sanctaries of national trade associations and credit associations that most Negroes are poor credit risks. Just as a number of large life insurance companies consider color as a determining factor in life hazards, so do the big trade bodies consider color a factor of importance in computing credit risks. And in our own city several of the merchants who do a credit business in general, and others who carry select charge accounts have recently complained of the mounting percentage of bad accounts contracted by members of our race. In some instances these dealers have adopted a rule of denying credit to our people, not thru a policy of racial discrimination, but as a matter of self-protection. Just how much our economic inequalities contribute to our unfavorable credit rating as a race, is not known. However, it is conceded that this is a powerful factor in the reckoning. But as credit is founded upon confidence and confidence is the outgrowth of character, we can do much to raise our credit standards and to acquire a larger enjoyment of this valuable asset. We cannot hope to ascend far up the ladder of economic accomplishments without enjoying a full measure of the world's confidence in our ability and incinations to religiously regard our financial obligations. was to test in trouble, more, more of those on Let and weaken by thy servile shall mand the use us in the great pect are. News that Mr. the President confidence We do not have to accept the statement in its entirety "that most Negroes are poor credit risks" to find enough truth in it to give us serious concern. And, of course, there are notable exceptions to the rule, as many people of our race enjoy credit equal to and better than that enjoyed by people of the other race, of the same financial capacities. But these exceptions only go to prove the general rule. The trouble is that so many of us buy things on credit without any assurance within ourselves of how the recurring payments are going to be met. We just want the goods and want to get them into our homes and the seller is left to collect the best he can, he ever does. Some people even gloat over the trouble they give the installment collector in getting his money. When the final payment is made they are classed as poor credit risks and the information goes thru the confidential channels of trade to other credit houses. They have not that sacred regard for their obligations that should come with a higher intelligence. These people never realize the destructiveness of their tactics. Their actions not only destroy their personal credit, but present an unfavorable reflection upon the credit rating of the race. And there is a serious moral menace in this business of dodging one's financial obligations. People who allow this habit to steal upon them sink into the gutters of moral laxity and self disrespect. They finally become miserable creatures and face the world with a slanting gaze. Their success is foredoomed, and at last they are consigned to the rubbish heap of social misfits. A man without a penny, but living in the enjoyment of the confidence of the world is a tower of strength in his community and is conscience free to hew out for himself a place among men. People who disregard their credit obligations are a disgust and constitute a parasitical element upon society from whose contact we pray to be delivered. In short, they are dead beats, which is mighty closely related to being a highway, robber. Babbling Domestic Secrets in Court Those who come into the secrets of others by serving them, in high or low places, are regarded as spies, and worse, and that is saying a great deal, when they allow themselves to be used as witnesses, for or against, when their employers fall out and pull each others' hair and scratch each others' faces, and rush into courts to settle their differences. This principle is carried so far that persons who have served the Government are not expected to use the information they secured in a confidential service to the prejudice of the Government or for their profit and advantage. It is quite remarkable that the principle is so generally respected, and it is not a matter of surprise that those who do not respect it are regarded with suspicion. A very large number of Afro-Americans are employed in domestic service, in all parts of the country; more so now than ever before because the supply of foreign domestics has been wonderfully curtailed by the immigration restriction-regulations. But, strangely enough, the domestic service work is not so popular with whites or colored people as it might be, perhaps because the proud American does not like to serve others in such relations, and because housekeepers, who never tire of complaining about the quality and supply of domestic workers, have not the proper respect for the service, comfort and working hours of those they employ. That is primarily because the people in the United States who employ domestics have not been used to doing so; they have had to serve themselves before they were able to hire others to serve the. President Washington and President. Grant both knew how to "condescend to them of low estate" in such a way as to make them feel no humiliation but rather so as to enhance their self-respect. But there are few Americans who know how to do so. We care not what others may think about; it is our opinion that domestic service employments are among the most important, and that those of us who take to them should place the same value on them as foreigners do in Europe and when they come here, and that we should keep fast hold on such service, as a vocation primarily as well as a stepping stone to other and more preferable service. The point. A New York millionaire, who has been three times married and who has a reputation for being a rotten dealer in womanhood, has been suing his third-wife for divorce, and doing all that money could purchase to beamirch the character of the mother of his children. In his nasty work he secured the services of one of our lawyers in Chicago and bought the evidence of some five Afro-American women who had in some way served them. The women have been indicted by a Chicago grand jury for perjury and they stand to be indicted by a New York grand jury. Now, these women must have known that they were being used by Stokes, and that even if their witness were true, they would prejudice the best interests of those members of the race engaged in domestic service, and that the proper and safe thing for them to have done was to refuse to be used at all. Now they are in trouble and plenty of it, and may get into more, and have hurt the best interests of those of us engaged in domestic service. Let us be loyal to those who employ us; and we cannot be so in a more helpful way than by not allowing our employers to use us to serve their selfish and nasty ends. We shall protect ourselves in so doing and command the respect of those who do not want to use us for any such ends, and they are by far the greater number, whose confidence and respect are worth having and keeping.

No r The interests of the Negro in America are widening in some directions and narrowing in others. There is a noticeable disposition to shift burdens that belong properly on the shoulders of the race to the white man. There is danger in it. Negroes should never expect the members of another race to do for them anything a people should do for themselves. Winter is approaching. It always brings suffering and need to some. White people take care of the needy of their race. Negroes should cultivate race pride along this particular line. It will increase the respect of other people. Negroes can be self-respecting if its members continue to depend weakly upon another race to take care of their helpless, orphaned and needy. Big-Brother and Big-Sister movements among Negroes should multiply throughout America. They represent associations of big-hearted men and women who perform consecrated service for those most in need of sympathy and help; those who deserve it. Every community has its share of men and women who take no interest in anything or anybody except that which assures their own bread and butter. They are the small minds and small hearts; the small souls with which the world is burdened. But every community also has its share of large-minded, large-hearted, big-souled men and women bent upon doing some good thing for others. These are the men and women who should come together and promote the Big-Brother and Big-Sister movements to minister to the needs of the helpless and deserving of the race when sympathy and help are the most needed things. The most servicable men and women of every community in America are those of active mind who take interest not simply in things for self-advantage, but for the good of all. The minds of such people reach and stretch out here and there like the tendrils of a plant seeking something to lay hold upon and help its growth. These people are givers and among the wealthiest in every community. The act of giving, the soul of the giver as much as it enriches the soul of the gift. Negro givers should multiply. They are evidence of developing human love.

P.) 58—Who was T. McCants Stewart. T. McCants Stewart was born in South Carolina in 1854. He studied law at Princeton University, and was admitted to the Bar of the State of New York. He was the first Colored member of Brown University. He became a member of his ill health he moved with his family to Honolulu, P. I., where he built up an extensive practice, later accepting an appointment in Liberia, in which country he became deeply interested, lending all of his powers to its officers. He became Associate Justice of its Supreme Court. Mr. Stewart afterward went to England, where he became the Liberian representative and finally moved to St. Thomas in the Virgin Islands, from whence he headed a Commission, taking up the cause of the Natives with the British government. His voyage he contracted pleurisy, and passed out not long after his arrival in St. Thomas, in 1921. 59- What happened in Boston, on the morning of April 18, 1775. On the morning of April 19 1775, when the British re-inforcements were preparing to leave Boston for Lexington, a Negro solider wore a helmet and commanded a small body of West Cambridge "exempts" (unfits) and captured Lord Percy's supply train with its military escort and the Officer in command, to the use of the word "African" in referring to the Race was made by a Race Editor in 1843, In 1843, Mr. Loveridge, Agent for Colored Schools of New York wrote Rev. George Hogarth, founder and Editor of the African Methodist-Magazine criticizing the use of the word African in his magazines, in referring to the Race in general. In reply, Rev. Hogarth stated, in part: "We are unable to see the reasonableness of the remarks. It is true we are not Africans, or natives born upon the soil of Africa, yet, as the descendants of that Race, how can we better manifest that respect due to our fathers in the form of the form in our institutions, and inscribing it upon our public places of resort." NEXT WEEK'S WHATNOTS 61—Who was Salem Poor? 62—What was the title of the first Race newspaper published on this day? 63—Were American Negro sol- ders ever in combat: with German soldiers prior to the recent War? Kinston, N. C.—Thirteen Negro prisoners, confined in the county jail here, made a successful escape of digging a hole to escape the story of the building and letting themselves down to the ground with blanket rope. Saturday, November, 3, 1923 Among the articles published in the November issue of "OPPOR-TUNITY" are "The Rosenwald Bank of Pennsylvania," Shepardson, illustrated; "The Colonial Literature of France," by Alain Locke, illustrated; "Psychometric Testing," by Dr. Frank J. O'Brien; "The Negro Population of Kentucky: Connecticut," "Cynthia W. Wallcock," for the "Prom," by Eric D. Walrought. In the "Rosenwald Rural School Dr. Shepardson says. "We will raise as you give, or more." So Booker Washington told Julius Rosenwald. The two men, the philosopher and the philanthropist, had been considering a plan for better rural schools for Negroes in the South. The pledge the first made was the condition proposed by the second, under the philanthropist, who had individuals looked at the matter from different points of view, although they thought, in common on the main issue. Dr. Washington had been studying the existing schools. He found them utterly inadequate. Mr. Rosenwald approached the subject from the viewpoint of a citizen. While, indeed, there was in his mind a feeling of desire to help the disadvantaged race, another thing seemed more important to living in the United States. He saw this population increase from year to year. It was plain to him that there would be either ten million Americans, a large part of them illiterate, an unprogressive and perhaps criminals because of lack of educational opportunity, or else there would be ten million with some degree of training for the responsibilities and obligations of good citizens. He proposed to try an experiment in building rural schools. He proposed a plan. Mr. Rosenwald was to offer to contribute a certain amount of money to any Negro community which desired to have a better school house. A fundamental condition was that the Negroes must raise themselves, or secure from their white friends or from public funds, an amount equal to or more than what he had to pay to the race. Dr. Washington's pledge was the response to the challenge. The conference, the offer, and the pledge date back to 1013. Alain Locke in "The Colonia literature of France" writes. France is developing a new colonia literature for which no allowances and apologies need be made and to which no discounts or corrective need be applied—for she is developing—indeed she has already developed a new point of view in the portrait of the heroine whose life. Colonial fiction has been for generations now a synonym for provincialism and second-rate aesthetic values. Rarely has it even attempted to be fair and humane, and only in the novel of local color has she the colonial scene come into the hands of the masters. But a revolutionary change in culture there is interest in the human portraiture of native life and in itself, and without the bold realism of "Batunola" this never would have been. For however rife this point of view may have been among the artists and authors, without the reading public, it would never have to come to public expression. But the public mind, with its production of this brilliant, daring etching of Maran's, has been so to speak, resurfaces for a new art to speak, at once more artistic and true. With the stylistic capacities of a Fläbert or a de Maupassant, Maran seems almost to have chosen to be the Zola of colonial literature, and with cruel realism and cutting irony has sought to create a hypnotic portrait of its traditional point of view. It was heroic work—and required to be done by the Negro himself—this revolutionary change from sentimentality to realism, from caricature to portraiture. How far such points of view will upset the stereotyped/interpretations and preconceptions, one cannot say, but we can safely predict a great reappraisal when Africa is viewed through the traders', nor the military surveyors', nor even through the missionaries', but with the artists' eye. Thus we look-at our own culture or we could not endure the sight of it. We know what the conception of Oriental culture was: curious, perverse, childish,灵敏, until our eyes were artistically opened and we saw it to be disciplined, profound, through the same medium. Africa will ultimately be estimated as a land of its own unique beauty and civilization. In "Cynthia Goes to the Prom." Eric W. Walrond says: . . . Yes, Cynthia was the best known colored girl at ———. The girls forgot the color of her skin. The boys, at first shy and undemonstrate, stared askance at the chony locks that adorned her bronze temples, then, before you knew it, completely toiled. In short, Cynthia, a black lish, "up-to-date" brilliant, at a school where Irish, Jew, Italian, Anglo-Saxon mixed, was a favorite. Six days ago Cynthia, her eyes as big as sauliers, came to see me. She had been crying. Unlike the fiery creature I had known she was broken in spirit, ready to give up her life. She was a prom and I can't get anyone to go with me" she muffled. "All the boys I know throw up their hands in despair, saying, 'I can't going to / no white folks' ball. I don't want - to get put out!'" Cynthia, as the taxi started to cross Brooklyn Bridge.

They must! In the conclusion of Mr. Johnson's survey of the "Negro Population of Waterbury, Conn," we are told: "Admittedly the present is a period of business prosperity. The war period, while it necessitated the expansion of manpower, caused much of the regular business to be pushed back until the more exacting demands of the national crisis were satisfied. The present workers represent a rather stable, earnest type and are the result of a rigid selection. About 75 percent of them entered industry less than five years ago. These workers are few Negro floaters of peripathetic workers. Neither the city nor the Negro community is large enough to support them long. The sentiment of the employers favors more Negro workers altho it is apparent that the problem of accommodation for them and their families, a very common source of difficulties and community reaction, is not the main account. These problems already threaten, the at present but mildly. Altho as yet the Negro population of Waterbury is not sufficiently large to be regarded as a serious problem, there are indications that with the growing demand for workers in lieu of the usual supply of workers, there is a steady too not precipitous growth of industries, that this population will show quite perceptible increases in the near future. Dr. O'Brien says of "Psychometric Testing:" The object of these tests, as is well known, is to determine the intellectual equipment or native ability, of an individual. Altho it is not possible to entirely eliminate the influence acquired knowledge plays in the experience, as examined by the examiner has shown that this interpreted by an adequately trained and experienced examiner. It has been the experience of investigators and examiners in the field of psychometric examinations that many individuals who never learned to read or write, who have never spent a day in school, and who have never been in a school environment have been shown to possess an unusually good intellectual equipment, which demonstrated that psychometric examinations really do test native ability and not asquired knowledge due to schooling, good environment, and the like. Psychometric examinations, as they exist today, are of utmost importance as a concept about the intelligence and competencies, as well as the deficiencies, of an individual. Using then the knowledge at our disposal for the training of the super-average as well as the intellectually incapacitated, much can be done for white and colored in developing to the highest degree of efficiency the native ability of each, thereby making it easier to assess the contented and socially desirable individuals.

His Company, he said is planning to support movements for general health education among Negroes. Miss Grace Abbott, Chief Children's Bureau, U. S. Dept. of Labor President of the National Conference of Social Work, said that studies made by their department showed to a higher infant mortality rate than those made by the National Committee. "Seventy-five per cent of children have rickets in a form, which though not conspicuous, renders their bodies susceptible to later attacks of disease. "The infant mortality rate of Negroes has decreased," she said, "from 181 in 1918 to 108 in 1920." Dr. K. K.

You will be surprised to know that the 115 colored postmasters under Postmaster-General New, that 40 of these are colored women. Preferring personal services as a means of livelihood, 12,600 colored women have found employment as barbers, hairdressers and manicists.

Of the 35,442 colored persons who follow the profession of teaching public schools in the United States, 29,189 are women, and 91 of them have reached the age of 65 years or over. It is surprising to note the scarcity of colored stenographers in the United States. There are only 2,917 of these, of which 1,970 are women.
