Tidewater Hospital Not To Close It is being rumored that the Tidewater Hospital has closed or is expected to close in the very near future. This is entirely erroneous. The Tidewater Hospital is in better financial condition than it has ever been since the opening of the hospital and the service at the hospital is being maintained at its usual high efficiency. There were six successful operations performed at the hospital last week and the work is progressing as usual, and there is no idea at all that the work of the hospital will be discontinued. The order to the ill health of Dr. Wilbur A. Drake, founder of the hospital, there may be some changes in the personnel of the hospital staff, in order to give Dr. Drake a much needed rest. While Dr. Drake will not leave the city for the next 12 or 18 months, he will continue to serve on the board of trustees and will be vitally interested in the future of the hospital. No, the Tidewater Hospital is not closed and there is no reason why it should close, and continue the splendid work it has been doing for the past years. The hospital was never in better condition to do its work than it has been doing. Board of Trustees. By Wilbur A. Drake. M.D. Surgeon in Charge Tidewater Hospital.

LARGE PERCENTAGE OF REDEPOSITS EXPECTED Over five thousand thrifty and fortunate persons are now sharing in the distribution of $125,000,000 representing the accumulations of the 1923 Christmas Savings Club of Metropolitan Bank and Trust Co. Those who were thoughtful and fortunate enough to join the Club last December are prepared for Christmas gifts, taxes, and numerous other needs for money which arise at this season of the year. Some will spend the whole amount of this check, while the more thrifty will redeposit a goodly portion on a permanent savings account. It is the experience of the bank officials that some who are evidently saving for a tangible purpose redeposit the whole amount of their check. Despite what has apparently been a decade this year's Club issue of the largest since Metropolitan Bank and Trust, Company started the Christmas Club feature, bak vingSataiO hrd emf bgk srid "This is an indication" one of the bank officials said, "that people are saving more systematically," and this he attributed partly to the educational and economic value of the Christmas Savings Club idea.

Roland Hayes Wins Great Ovation Here Noted Tenor's Voice Enraptures Large Audience At Zion Baptist Church. Roland Hayes, the celebrated tenor, encaptured the large audience at Zion Baptist Church Saturday night with his masterly rendition of a repertoire ranging from Arietta by Paradisi (17th Century); in Italian to his native spirituals. Mr. Hayes displayed his wonderful technical equipment with surpassing ability. He sang Italian, French, German and English compositions with apparent ease, returning to his native spirituals without affectation. The singer possess a stage presence purely natural. His theme envelops him and the presence of an audience seems to be lost to his knowledge, as he soars in his voice. He is an artist of the first magnitude and his art subdues him. The tenor was accompanied by Mr. William Lawrence, an accomplished pianist. Commenting upon Roland Hayes's recital the Sunday (Norfolk) Virginian Pilot remarked: "He is an artist of the highest order, with a splendid technical equipment. He mustered greatational strength in crescendo passages, and with the greatest ease reduced the volume of his voice to a subdued fineness, which was alas whisper, without losing the melody. In Sakura, the Japanese love song, by Yoshinori Matsuyama, he swung from rich chest tones to the upper registers with a surprising ease. There was no apparent effort. His accompaniist, William Lawrens, is a finished pianist. He seemed to enter into the spirit of the singer, accurately interpreting, with possibly one or two exceptions, that which was written into the score. One is impressed with the artist's perfect poise and great confidence in himself. His Italian and German enunciation seemed to be perfect, and he launched himself into his themes with a fervor never hesitating. A full-blooded Negro, rather frail to look at, he has, despite his intense schooling abroad, retained the full-throated quality of the untrained Negro voice. When he sang his Negro spirituals, he used a purified Negro dialect, using a distinct pronunciation. It all comes as somewhat of a surprise, after hearing him sing the Italian French, German and English compositions. He received a whole hearted ovation at the conclusion of his Japanese love song. The audience would not be denied, so he sang Passing the Bells, a lifting melody, one that suited the lyric to a fine degree. When he sang, "Steal Away to Jesus," he surpassed himself. He almost seemed not of the flesh. His voice tapered from powerful passages to almost silence. His spiritual "Every Time I Feel the Spell" was wiping up impurity and melody that breathed the spirit of the old fashioned camp, meeting. He preceded "Sit Down" with an explanation of the origin of the piece and the theme. His speaking voice is rich with a suggestion of a little French or perhaps Italian in it. The concert was arranged under auspices of the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority. Its success was due to the efforts of the committee in charge Mrs. Virgile Sears, chairman, Miss Evelyn Lightner and Carrie Russell and the hearty cooperation of the members of the organization.

Church was the scene, last Wednesday afternoon of a very pretty "Mum" wedding when Miss Gillian Deane Bailey, daughter of Mr. John Bailey, was married to Daniel Dare Malloy.

On Sunday evening at 7:30 p.m., Emanuel A. M. E. Church was crowded to its capacity with music lovers and admirers of the popular choir of Emanuel A. M. E. Church, to hear them in their superb recital of the 1923 season, which was planned and trained under the skillful supervision and tutorships of the organist and choir director of Emanuel, in the effort to raise $100 for the Trustees and Stewards of the church. The program consisted of eight very intricate numbers by American and foreign composers. It would be very difficult for the most critical masters in music to decide which of the singers, doing specific work, were to satisfactory impression on the large and responsive audience, as each singer, both in solo and in group work, seemed at their best. Musicians who have kept up with the activities of Emanuel chair say the recital on last Sunday evening was one of the greatest in the career of the chair, an aggregation of modern singers, twenty-five in number, keeping before the congregation a grade of work readily seen as superior. The members of the choir reported contributions from friends three envelopes to the amount of $135 which was turned over to the officials of the church. ferns and cathedral candles. The weddingg march was played by Mr. Walter C. Fulford, and just before the ceremony, Mrs. Annie B. Fisher sang, "At Dawning." The bride was given in marriage by her father. She wore a gown of white crepe satin, trimmed with pearls and rhine stones with a court train. Her veil of twille was arranged in blossom. The brides's only ornament was a string of pearls. She carried a shower bouquet of chrysanthemums. Miss Addie Peters was the maid of honor. She wore a gown of silver greye crepe satin trimmed in lace and ribbon and a picture hat of silver lace and velvet. Her other attendants were Misses Lillian B. Davis, Bessie Churchill, Glarestine Peters and W. Mae Bernard. They were gowns of crepe dechine in pastel shades with hats of black lace and velvet. Their flowers were bouquets of chrysanthemums of contrasting shades. The flower girls were the Lillian Elliott twins, Misses Lillian and Louise. They were props of flesh crepe dechine with their hair ribbon and cavied baskets filled with chrysanthemums. The bridegroom had as his best man, Mr. Albert Carrington and the ushers were: Messrs. David Sanford, William Joyners, Earnest Jackson, James Estes, Major McTeer and John Cornew. Preparing the ceremony a reception was held at the home of the bride and later in the evening, Mr. and Mrs. Malloy left for a short northern wedding trip.

FATURDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1923 FAILS TO SCORE ON UNDEFEATED UNION FAILS TO SCORE ON UNDEFEATED UNION Richmond, Va.,—In one of the most sensational football games ever witnessed on historic Hovey stadium the mighty unbeaten Union Panther defeated the stellar St. Paul warriors 6-0 in a spectacular gridiron clash staged last Saturday before a great crowd of local and visiting enthusiasts. Union Not Yet Scored On The game was intensely interesting and thrilling, the contest reaching its climax when the St. Paul eleven ploughed the field. Union had scored, to the Panthers 6-yard line, and, with the awarding of a first and ten at that point, the visiting warriors attempted to do, what no team has done this season, that is, cross Union's goal line, and they failed. Spectacle A veritable "battle of lines" was staged with the Union eleven outplaying their opponents and earning the "first and tans" to St. Paul's five. The Lawrenceville aggregation, however, proved to be a worthy foe, their heavy line serving as their main means of defense. Luminaries of the Game Corvetters starred at end, while Shields was "running wild" in the backfield; Miller's work was outstanding on the line; W. A. Smith's end was "uncircled"; Hoffman played a great game; Fentress and Moton shone brilliantly as fullbacks, and W. J. Ship, aided by Merritt, recovered the pig-in-behind St. Paul's goal line for the lone touchdown. Barksdal's center was almost impatient and Derrick headily was a feature of the game, well, and, in all the Panther "machine" looked like a champion team. Parker, a rugged fullback, played the leading role for the St. Paul eleven. He is one of the few griders this season who has made much progress through Union's famous "stonewall" line. Williams barked signals in a deliberate manner; Maddux starred at end, and the entire line was a real menace to Union's aspiring plungeers. Pierce and Boykins, line stars battled nobly and Walker proved to be a valuable backfield man. The students's enthusiasm almost waxed into pandemonium and the spirit manifested by all the enthusiasts was commonplace. The student's body notable. The student's "U" on the spacious park which was very picturesque and various demonstrations of real collegiate spirit added to the color to the event. Union—G St. Paul—G W. A. Smith L. E.

Washington High School football eleven met the boys of I. C. Norcum High, of Portsmouth nt League Park, Monday afternoon in their annual grid encounter after three successive postponements on account of rain. The game was a thriller and was by a large number of enthusiasts fans, followers of both teams. Coble had charge of the Educators in the absence from the lineup of West, who was out nursing injuries. In the second half, however, West went in to relieve Smith at center, who was compelled to reline on account of injuries. "Whirlwind" Brickhouse was also on the invalid list and the president of these three star players, out of the lineup, seriously felt. The fumbles of Booker T.'s backfield were costly. Adams, the star quarterback, of Norcum, made two long end runs, after the Educator's stonewall consisting of the three Diggs brothers, Bridgeford, Wilson and Boyd strengthened. Boyd, right end, made the touchdown by intercepting a forward pass and running thirty-five yards for the score. In the last half Snead was rushed, the second play of Jones, Taylor, Nottingham, Willis, Lloyd Williams, John Williams and Wright was commendable. Union University's Crack Trio THE FOURTH WINNER H.

EVERYWOMAN PLAYS TO BIG AUDIENCES Attucks Theatre Packed Monday and Tuesday nights; Local Cast Exhibits Admirable Talent. Mrs. Mary Ross Dorsey, dramatist and elocutionist of Boston with the admirable acting of a local cast, presented the five-act mortality drama "Everywoman" to two packed audiences at the Attucks Theatre Monday and Tuesday nights under auspices of Grace P. E. Church. Mrs. Dorsey had trained her cast which consisted of fifty people for only three weeks, yet the acting was the most amateur performance that was witnessed in this fact alone attests the wonderful artistic ability and personality of Mrs. Dorsey. The story based on Walter Brown's production "Everywoman" portrays every woman in quest of King Love. She sets out into the world accompanied by her three companions Youth, Beauty and Modesty. With these she is an idol of the male sex and the envy of her own kind. On her journey in quest of King Love the first of her companions she departs with is Modesty. Without modesty she enters upon a career of dissipation, following which another her companions, a beauty, slowly dies. In the throes of a wrecked still life comes her and takes away her last companion, Youth. It is then Truth, who had warned her before she began her pilgrimage for love, confronts her again. She raves and protests against the presence of Truth. "Everywoman" repents of her folly. Modesty the first of her companions to depart returns to her. Finally she is persuaded to followwow Truth. It is then she finds herself. It is a wonderful play. A sermon dramatized that should be witnessed by every young woman. Mrs. Dorsey, herself, acts the leading role. She is "Everywoman". She interprets her wish in a feminine role. She is inimical, she is hilarious, vivacious and pathetic, just as the need may be. Of all the local people making up the supporting cast special mention might be made. Each one displayed ability that was certainly charming and appreciated, especially considering the brief time they spent in training. Attorney L. A. Howell as Nobody, had a very important part and his acting, was commendable. Youth, Mrs. Alma Givens; Beauty, Mrs. Elsie James, and Modesty, Miss Helen Lawrence supported Mrs. Dorsey in the role of her three companions with delightful interpretation. Each of these were active and acted as if the stage had been a part of their life's work. Miss Helen Lawrence, as Modesty, was every bit her part. Platterty, Mr. Tony Vaughn, was good. Mrs Dovey Collins as Truth displayed surpassing ability. Each appearance of Truth on the stage was cause for pathetic reflections among the audience. Mr William James as King Love acted well. Dr. S. F. Coppage and attended Walter Davis as助手. They appeared with the 2 with the Ballet girls, as play directors, and fitted well into their parts. Miss Mary Macklin as Meek; Miss Vivian France, Vanity; Miss Elsie Gaines, Ambition; Miss Addie Jordan as Greed, were also very good. Their support of the main theme was faultless. Mr. A. L. Jackson, instructor at Hampton Institute, acted in the Age. He displayed ability as actress as prompter and stage manager. Dr. J. L. Tattimore, of Hampton, Va., as Passion was another who stood out in bold relief as an amateur performer. He had his lines so perfect that he was able to stress his interpretation to a high degree. Conscience, Mrs. Lonnie Elliott, acted well as beauty, the quality of conscience had to have been personified in her. Mr. Thomas Bowling, of Hampton, as Wealth, supported "Everywoman" admirably. Mrs Mabel Bailey, as Vamp; Earnet Faison and Mrs. George Timberlake, the servants acted in the banquet scene as perfectly trained servitors. Mr. Earnest Jackson, the Press Agent, fitted in nicely. Mr. O'Neil, the dancer, displayed ability bordering very close on to the professional. She was as light and graceful as a nymph and there was real art in her every step. The Ballet Dancers were Misses Mary Bass, Frances Hill, Vernia Dudley, Bessie Gaines, Mattie Morris, Dora Tynes, Margaret Moseley, Fannie Drew, Thelma Summer, Evelyn Bailey, Margaret Colden, Catherine Brown, Lourie Lee, Annie Macie McClain, Debbie Mohna Grete Davis, Larry Davis, Elizabeth Collins, Louise Canada and Helmar Dungee. Their acting provided the spice and variety to the whole show. Grace Episcopal Church and all who were responsible for the success of the affair express their gratitude for the genuine public NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE INBEATEN BY NBEATEN BY A co-operation accorded the management; and special thanks is extended to noncommunicants of that church Attucks Thea Manager C The banquet arranged by Mrs. Lucy Burnham, added much to the reality of that scene.

CROOKS IN BATTLE Fierce Fight on Steamship Feature of "Missing Millions" A fierce fight between four crooks over millions in gold in the strong room of an ocean liner is one of many thrilling scenes in "Missing Millions," a new Paramount picture production starring Alice Brady, which will be shown at the Star Theatre next Tuesday. From the early scene wherein the famous Cyclops diamond is stolen by two clever thieves at a fashionable party, the action races dramatically through great injustice to vengeance and a clever plot for vengeance and gold a cross plot by international thieves, a great problem and a great sacrifice. It is one of Jack Boyle's "Boston Blackie" stories, and the character of Blackie is portrayed by David Powell. Frank Losee is a prominent member of the supporting cast.

"AT TUSKEGEE Tuskegee Institute, Ala—Dr. J. O. Plummer, of Raleigh, N. C, the President of the National Medical Association, was a visitor here today. A luncheon in Dorothy Halland an inspection tour of the U.S. Veterans’ Hospital repre- sented the high spots of his visit. _ About twenty-five mien, includ- ing the heads of departments of the. Institution and vt physicians and ‘densist from thé Veterans’ Hospital were assembled for lun- chon. Albon L. Holsey, secre- tray of the National. Negro. Busi- ness, League, acted as toastmaster and presented-the following gentle- ‘men who welcomed the distinguish- ed guest: Warren’ Logan, Treasurer ant Vice Principal of Tuskegee Institute; Dr. Pigs: H. Dibble, of the Veterans’ Hospital arxt Dr. John A. Kenney, Director of the John A. Andrew Hospital, Tuskegee Institute. When Dr. Plummer re- sponded, he paid. tribute to the oan of Dr., Washington and praia Dr. Moton for carrying Forward the work of, the Institute in the spirit of its founder. The program of the National Medical Association was vividly . described to the interested group, after which Dr. Plummer counseled the physi- cians from the Veterans’ Hos- pital that the “eyes of the world” ‘wore upon them. “We are expect- ing you to make good,” he said, “poth professionally and as men.” In the afternoon, in company with Albon L, Holsey and Dr. John. A. Keney, Dr. Plummer visited the Veterans’ Hospital, where he was, formally met. and: cordially wel- comed. by Major Charles M. Grif- fith, the Medical officer in charge. Laying aside his duties, Major Griffith’ personally conducted ihe party aver the grounds and thru the buildings. Major Griffith told Dr. Plummer that there were now, on his staff seven colored. physi- cians, two .denvists, thirty-thre nurses and that these workers had shown fine spirit as wll as cager- ness to master their exacting duties. It was shown that but twelve witite attaches remain while two hunitred | aml forty-six colored are on duty, Among the twelve are three com- mission officers, the dirketing heud’s, of the institution. ‘When Dr. Plummer left the Hos- pital he turned to the Major and said, “This has been a wonderful and most enlightening experience and 1 wish to thank you for the generous attitude and splendid en- souragement which you are giving our people.”* 7 | PLYMOUTH avin Domus ean okt DiS scgec ha rears Beets atest tastes ace aera Per rte th tres We Sasa Gooch hatte eae osiee spree str cist Yak Ain te Tihnd Van ie cs eee war rearnee en skriaen Tere aceon nose Wie Sens Oe ey Wan net keane wyatt te Sea eee tha eae eabard ant uesins the Sere Oa Seed a ets oes ecto car [reap tga bgt epg Gee Pam ink tet a terenoaron Fe ea tra ny ene tae Me opel oy targa ork bh Pasa dalam te Ace Bare iui ison tt. ber We (Wir Sete rent Een: Sete Se a eee aed ee 2h soe Se ae ree a et sce oe Noe Fee, ee i ree as A eins see pag Nooo neler regent ors ie ese: of Seale fe Se eatin Cette Privhs = et ot san ta Mary firean-na Se corect We se Co see eee Caer her vrs ctl seein One Sts Ce bel Se on Tepes ol bee Se ead eae se ee ne Ann Het Pans in tot / BELHAVEN | Belhaven.

Bloods and Men Are Shot Down ‘Thibodeaux, La, — Three white ‘men are seriously wounded and tyo bloodhonnds are dead as the result of an attempt on the part of a number of whites to catch Jim Johnson, alleged to have been. in ‘a fight with another Negro on. the ‘Wever plantation. Johnson armed himself, and when the whites came, showed fight. Two dogs were shot down one aiter the other. The white men sniped off. He was final- ly cornered. in a cane break and slain, Such an outbreaks is un- usual for this section of Louisiana, most of the whites and Negroes being close rylatives, a condition which gives rise to a rare form of tolerance. 7 Organize A Hotel : a Men’s.

It has become something else. and the After the Afi that if sionary In the case of the Afro-American people, the Republican party has been drifting away from them for quite fifty years, since the Presidential election of 1876, in which the Reconstruction governmental experiment in the Southern States came to a violent and disastrous death, as fast as we are concerned. The Republican party, through President Harding and the National Committee, dominated by him through Bascom. Slemp, threw us down and out, the recent reduction of Southern representation in National convention by the National Committee being the straw that broke the cannel's back. But while the Republican party has been steadily drifting away from the Afro-American people the Afro-American people have been slow in drifting away from the Republican party. There should be no mistake about that. They cling to the old skeleton of their political faith and devotion. That is natural also. Our Washington correspondent, Mr Morris Brown and other Washington correspondents, indicate that President Coolidge understands the situation and does not care for it and will go about correcting it as far as possible. The defection of Afro-American Republicans in Maryland, West Virginia and New York in the last elections may prejudice the Presidential election next year against the Republican party, and it looks that way right now. Can the President heal up the breaches, heal the sores, compact our voting force again? We shall see. We appear to be getting more females than males as a race group. Fifteen of the larger cities show an excess of females, Richmond being in the list, while Norfolk escapes. Is the race becoming female. Prof. Miller of Oberlin College says in the New York World that 100 per cent Americanism is a vice. It certainly is when Jews, Negroes and Catholics, who have contributed so much to make the Nation what it is, are classed as not good and desirable Americans. The Federal Supreme Court upholds the land laws of California and Oregon which prohibit Japanese from owning or leasing land in the United States. The Japanese now have no standing whatever in the country except as aliens. Voluntary Segregation George F. Bragg, Jr., of Bakersfield, men who has gained the networks over a long period of time with authority on questions and its relations with others makes the position in his letter to the Churchman, quoted in our 17, which the Journal of the Church, that forced segregation and voluntary segregation and are very different. When we flock by ourselves, as our preferred own to other church life, but when for our violent presence, even when he had no part in making, he, because there is no consent for segregating citizens, menting on Dr. Bragg's letter to the Churchman goes out of it in the whole matter in the course of its article, as follows: all know that there is a cease leader whose ambition is the intermingling of the race of combating this form of combating that of improving the Negro within the urban areas of them, and of doing the racial line without racial interest, the "social equality" humble as nothing to do with any work with freedom of religious shall and who shall not be schism and commune at the school so relation whatever to the major voluntary in their operation, is something else accommodations in public schools, separate voting booths, districts,—there can be no one or justice to those who consent to accept such. He demonstrated the truth of the fact that will always get the small appropriation out of the most worst accommodations for well with others. Know of no type of Negro lea­bition is to bring about the races," and we do the Churchman could single out dozen such. Christianity falls down the color line in the pews, in that the communion table, it, it has done that, and it is for doing it, it is suffering it will suffer greatly for who draw the color line, the benefits of citizenship for so doing? Even so. Dr. George F. Bragg, Jr., of Baltimore, one of our men who has gained the right by his good works over a long period of years to speak with authority on questions affecting the race and its relations with other race groups, takes the position in his letter to the Southern Churchman, quoted in our issue of November 17, which the JOURNAL and GUIDE took long ago, that forced segregation is one thing and voluntary segregation another, and the two are very different. When left free to do it we flock by ourselves, as other race groups do, preferring our own to others in our social and church life, but when forced to do it, we resent violence, even when backed by a law we had no part in making, implied in the force, because there is no constitutional justification for segregating citizens by law. Battling Siki, the French Senegalese fighter, stacked up against Kid Norfolk, in New York, Tuesday night of last week, and stayed fifteen rounds but failed to queer the light weight title holder, who is some more fighter. The wise ones say Siki is a splendid fighter and courageous to the drop of the hat. Governor McRae of Arkansas has commuted to twelve years in the penitentiary the death sentences of the six remaining victims of the Phillips County rioting, which was provoked by a deputy sheriff working in the interest of interested planters and for which more than a hundred Negro tenant farmers suffered death or long terms in the chain gang. Governor McRae has shown a splendid disposition to govern the State fairly and without prejudice, as in the case of the lynching of John Henry Lowry at Nordena, and in commuting the sentences of the six we are sure he went as far as he felt justified by public opinion to go. Commenting on Dr. Bragg's letter the Southern Churchman goes out of its way to confuse the whole matter in the concluding paragraph of its article, as follows: "Of course we all know that there is a certain type of Negro leader whose ambition is to bring about the 'intermingling' of the races. No method of combating this form of leadership is so effective as that of improving the conditions of the Negro within the urban sections occupied by them, and of doing them justice along every line without racial intermingling." The Republican Party Capturing the Klan The newspaper sharp, who keep a sharper eye on politics and politicians than other agencies, have about decided that the Republican party is slowly capturing the Ku Klux Klan, at the expense of the Democratic party, especially in the South, where the Klan was born, and that Atlanta, which has long been the headquarters of the Klan, stands to lose that distinction to Indianapolis, center of Klan empire having shifted to the Middle West. That may be true, or it may be newspaper talk; the fact remains, however, that in the late elections, Indiana and Ohio both appear to have been captured by the Klan, the Republicans being whipped in their own party by the Klan members of it. The Klan showed political strength in other States of the North and Middle West, through its affiliations with the Republican party rather than with the Democratic party. This "Racial intermingling" business is our old enemy, the "social equality" humbug, which the law has nothing to do with any more than it has to do with freedom of religious worship and who shall and who shall not belong to the same church and commune at the same table, and has no relation whatever to the main questions, being voluntary in their operations, while civil segregation is something else, such as separate accommodations in public places, on land and sea, separate voting booths, separate living districts,—there can be no legal civil segregation or justice to those compelled without their consent to accept such. Experience has demonstrated the truth of that. Those segregated will always get the small, end of the tax appropriation out of the common fund and the worst accommodations for which they pay equally with others. We know of no type of Negro leader whose "whole ambition is to bring about the intermingling of the races," and we doubt if the Southern Churchman could single out by name a baker's dozen such. Or is the Klan capturing the Republican party? The question is of the 57 mixed pickles variety. Anyhow, the mix up has got the Republican and Democratic leaders all guessing. And it has got Afro-American voters guessing also. They can't vote for either party in any situation that nominates Klan-men for office, and when both parties do it in a given situation they just can't vote for either. We never expected to live to see a possible situation like that develop, but it has made its appearance and may make a problem for us in the Presidential election next year which it will be difficult to face or side-step. White Christianity falls down flat when it draws the color line in the pews, in the pulpit and at the communion table, and it is doing that, it has done that, and it has suffered greatly for doing it, it is suffering greatly now, and it will suffer greatly for doing it. And those who draw the color line in citizenship and the benefits of citizenship, do they not suffer for so doing? Even so. Foreign Mission Work Drifting away from the Old Landmarks who devote their time alm m pursuits, and are most co- nstructing for the race a place in political firmage seldon cause and envisage, as it is as so many would desire things as affects the benight m lands. ave just had the opportun People who devote their time almost wholly to secular pursuits, and are most concerned about creating for the race a place in the economic and political firmament seldom take the time to pause and envisage, as it is their duty to do, and as so many would desire to do, the state of things as affects the benighted peoples in heathen lands. The old landmarks are among the dearest of human institutions. All the memories of childhood and manhood cling to them They are like home ties. But there are other landmarks than those which stand for home place and the things in it. They are tied up in the psychological complex. None of them is so dear and difficult to get rid of as the ties of religion and of politics. We find this peculiarly the case with aliens who come to us from other lands, who have inherited ideas of civil administration and religion which do not correlate with ours. They are slow to change their ideas to conform to ours, and it sometimes takes several generations to accomplish the change. We have just had the opportunity of devoting a brief and superficial perusal to the report of the Reverend Dr. A. A. Graham, Corresponding Secretary of the Lott-Carey Foreign Missionary Convention, for the year 1922-23, which in pamphlet form is ready for distribution. In this report Dr. Graham succinctly sets forth a review of the accomplishments of the Lott-Carey Convention in the matter of spreading the Christian gospel among the pagan people of Africa and Haiti. The recital is presented in a style intensely interesting and characterized to grip and hold the attention of the most secular minded intelligent person, and to provoke grave reflections upon man's obligations to his less favored fellowman. Aside from a recounting of the actualities attained on the foreign field by this missionary agency, the most striking revelation of the report is the superb sound and logical perspective later-day missionary organizations have of the work to be done among the heathens; Just now the Nation is seething with political and religious seismics. The foreigners have brought it upon us, on the one hand, and time has wrought for it on the other. The old order changeth, and when a certain point is reached many persons become dissatisfied with the changes, which no longer reflect their beliefs, and they look about for other refuge more in harmony with altered conditions. This is more prevalent in politics than in religious beliefs. Political discontent and shifting of position are very active among the whole American electorate, but among none more so than Afro-Americans. They have got into and the best manner of approach to this work. After reading what Dr. Graham has to say on the African cause, the inevitable conclusion is that if during the past century the gospel missionary on the dark continent had been as well organized and systematized as it is at present, and if its sponsors had possessed the sound mental grasp of what the situation requires as obtains with the Lott-Carey Missionary Convention and other present day operations in the evangelical work, the results attained in Christians converts and the salvaging of human values would have been doubled. Addressing himself to the later-day idea of African evangelism Dr. Graham says in part: "Our policy will be to establish centers around which we can continue to build indefinitely and to introduce Christian ideals through the process of education. Our purpose will not be to evangelize adults especially, but to take native children in infancy and early youth and teach them a knowledge of Christ and safe-guard them until they mature, from paganism and the heathen practices which surround them. They will then in turn become prepared to serve as missionaries among their own people. The thing worth while in the work of missions is the institution. Missionary funds to be made effective must be invested in something more abiding than the span of an individual life. It must be made of value not along in the present, but in the future. It must be calculated to yield a dividend in the redemption of souls long after its investors are dead." The report is worthy of study from cover to cover.

Standardizing Negro Securities From The (Baltimore, Md.) Afro-American Up to the present there has been no standing security of any colored entered regularly on any of the great nat stock exchanges. This has not been because there have been many safe enterprises promoted by ored men, but because colored business has been a healthy growth of our oce life until there are safe avenues of invest that yield results. These investments must also give ountity to the masses to own part and in land and industry through their owner of stock. The only way big things can be is through co-operation, not from a willingness of masses to co-operate, but from lack of eff leadership in finance.

Up to the present there has been no outstanding security of any colored enterprise listed regularly on any of the great national stock exchanges. This has not been because there have not been many safe enterprises promoted by colored men, but because colored business has failed to standardize its securities. There will never be a healthy growth of our economic life until there are safe avenues of investment that yield results. These investments must also give opportunity to them to own part and parcel in land and industry through their ownership of stock. The only way big things can be done is through co-operation and in the past the failure has come not from a willingness of the masses to co-operate, but from lack of efficient leadership in finance. Some system of standardization should be promoted by the National Business League that would bring to the attention of colored men and women the necessity of getting a hold of the bigger interests by investment. Investments are valuable not only as dividend getters, but they also create potential power and influence where it is needed. THANKSGIVING The Christian nations celebrate many holidays. Perhaps none have created a holiday more expressive of a Christian spirit than has America in setting aside a day every year for Thanksgiving to the Almighty. America, standing today at the top of the world; blessed more than any nation, more prosperous than any other nation has more to give thanks for than many another nation if we chose to look upon it. Thanksgiving is a thankful to the Ruler of the Universe for whatever it gains, whatever it has; and whatever may befall it—*Florida Sentinel*: The Christian nations celebrate many days.

EDWARDS (FOR A. N. P.) 70—What condition of affairs existed on this continent at the time of the first Colored convention? Emancipation had just taken place in New York, and had just been arrested in Virginia by the Nat Turner rebellion and Walker's pamphlet. Secret sessions of the legislature of the several Southern States had been held to deliberate upon the production of a colored man and nobody recommended to his fellow blacks the only solution to the slave question, which, after twenty-five years of ardous labor of the most hopeful and noble hearted abolitionists, seems the forlorn hope of freedom today—insurrection and bloodshed. Great Britian was in the midst of that bloodless revolution which two years afterwards, culminated in the passage of the Emancipation Act, which housed the joyous and genious state of the British heart which dictated the West India Emancipation Act. 71—What is the origin of the word TARIFI in referring to customs duties? Tariff was originally the name for a Moorish (African) chief who having a port in Spain, near Gibraltar, was accustomed to toll on passives vessels. His self became a regular understood thing and the amount was added to the 72-What did General Thomas Morgan say of the Negro troops at the battle of Nashville, Tenn? Gen. T. J. Morgan, speaking of the courage of Negro troops in the battle of Nashville, and its effect upon Maj. Gen, George H. Thomas, says: "Those who fell nearest the enemy's works were Colored. Gen. Thomas felt personally feeling of the sight which met his eyes as he rode over the field, and he confessed that the Negro had fully vindicated his bravery, and wiped from his mind the last vestige of prejudice and doubt.

Saturday, December 1, 1923 PROGRESS IN STUDY OF NEGRO HISTORY The report of Dr. Carter G. Woodson, Director of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, and editor of the Journal of Negro History, for the 1922-23, reveals gratifying progress in this field which for centuries has been neglected by the world's historians. Dr. Woodson and his associates are projecting their talents into an especially singular vocation, the results of which it will require several years for the world to come to fully appreciate. The report reads in part: "The fiscal year ended June 30, 1923, was the most prosperous in the history of the Association. The efforts of the staff were directed toward carrying out the purposes for which the Association was organized, namely, to collect historical data and to promote studies bearing on the Negro life in the District. The Director had to perform the two important tasks of soliciting funds to finance the Association and then to use the same in the employment of assistants to investigate the various aspects of Negro life and history. The Journal of Negro History has found its way into additional libraries and schools where it is becoming more to be regarded as a valuable aid in research. It is now used as such in the accredited colleges and universities of both races in the South and serves for similar purposes in centers of research in the North. A larger number of institutions abroad, moreover, are now subscribing to this publication to complete file of the magazine in briefy stated, then, while this publication has not a popular subscription list, it circulates throughout the civilized world as a library magazine of value for advanced students, investigators, and social workers. Research For the first time in the history of the Association its researches have taken a definite course. Up to the year just ended, the Association had the benefit of merely what investigations the Director's manifold duties permit, to be to the extent others of their own will worked out in the interest of unearthing the truth. Thanks to the appropriations of the Carnegie Corporation and the Laura Spellman Rockefeller Memorial, however, the Association can now outline a definite program of investigation and research. For the present the staff is engaged in the study of the Free Negro prior to 1861 and Negro Reconstruction History. With the assistance of a copyist, Mrs. C. B. Overton, the Director has been preparing a report on the Free Negro in the United States. His report will tell us the status of the names of the persons of color who were heads of families in 1830, where they were living, how many were each family, how many slaves each owned, and what relation these free Negroes sustained to the white people. This research covers also the history of the position of slaves by whites. The first volume of the report will be published within the next six months. Using it is a basis, the Director will make further investigation of the Free Negroes to determine their economic status, social position, and the white whites toward this class, and the opinion of the North with respect to them as citizens. Working in this same field, but developing special aspects of this history, are Mr George F. Dow and Miss Irene Wright. Mr. George F. Dow has been employed to the 18th century colonial newspapers of New England for facts bearing on the history of the colonies, however, he has been unable to finish this task and does not promise to accomplish much until next fall. Miss Irene A. Wright is now extracting from the Archives of the Indies in Seville, Spain, some valuable documents showing the part the Negroes played in British and Spanish in American and especially the records of the Mose Settlement of Negroes in Florida and the achievements of the Negroes in Louisiana. Miss Wright will also copy all accessible documents of Latin-America giving accounts of Negroes in higher spheres of usefulness. Association is to encourage the监管ator to render the same sort of service in the British Museum and the Public Record Office in London. During the year the Association has had one worker in Negro Reconstruction History. This was Mr. A. A. Taylor, an alumnus of the University of Michigan, who has recently received the degree of Master's in Civil Engineering at Harvard University under Professors W. C. Abbott, F. J. Turner, and Edward Channing. Although he has devoted only a part of his time to this research, he has produced one valuable dissertation, The Social Conditions and Treatment of African Americans of 1855-1860. He has also made a scientific study of the social and economic conditions of the Negroes in Virginia for the same period, but has not yet completed this treatise. It is expected that it will be ready for publication within the next twelve months. We will continue our work as Associate Investigator, permanently employed by the Association to devote all of his time to this effort. Closely connected with these plans, moreover, are certain other projects to preserve Negro folklore. In this effort the Association has the co-operation of Dr. Elsie Clews Parsons, the moving spirit of the American Folklore Society. She is now desirous of making a more systematic effort to embody this part of the Negro civilization and she believes that the work can be more successfully OFFICE SALES AND SERVICE CO., (Incorporated) Distinctive Office Equipment Typewriters 121 W.

As soon as the Director can obtain a special fund for this particular work, and investigator will be employed to undertake it. For the present the Association is endeavoring to stimulate interest in this field by offering a prize of $200 for the best collection of tales, riddles, proverbs, sayings, and songs, which have been heard at home by Negro students of accredited schools. Noted Writer Sees: Liberia Losing Out (Continued From Page 8) It is claimed further that a system of debt slavery exist. The claim is supported by Negroes from America who have been to Liberia, Jackson, Jackson, Chicagou, head of the African Imports Company, returned last year to tell of how the children of one family might be traded off to another in settlement of a debt. This is an extension of the often-explained marriage system whereby the African gets his wife for a few cows. In Liberia it is not only in wives, but in men, women, boys, and girls, that a wife suffices to the large part of a man's wealth in Liberia may be wrapped up in his possession of human chattels, and as Gibbons writes, there is some officials sanction of the contract. He finds many of the natives, and the descendants of repatriated American slaves, lazy and abducted to various forms of vice. The little work is performed by the slaves or "pawns." Nature has been kind over there that Hilda effort is rewarded grow food, products, they just come up anyhow. Unless something practical is speedily done, Mr. Gibbons believes the republic is in for a tragic ending. Killed By Car Atlanta, Ga, Nov.-After S. L.
