DECEASED WALTER BLOW FUND INCREASED BY MANY OUT-OF-TOWN GIVERS Decided stimulus was given this week to the effort of the Journal and Guide to help $55,000 to assist in pupil training. The children little less Walt Blow. Donations from several out-of-town people have appreciably swelled the amount in hand. The donors have expressed unstimulated praise of their efforts. The Guide to humanity in this small way, and evinced tender sympathy for this unfortunate child. For the benefit of those who may be unacquainted with the family case the following is published: Walter Blow is an eight year old child living with his parents at 750 St. Paul street. He lost his legs under the wheels of a locomotive when he fell and for entering school, he has as yet been unable to attend school on account of his inability to walk. Mr. Rydingsvard, Director of Physical Education for the city of Norfolk, will take the little fellow and in order that the child might have an opportunity to secure learning in spite of his physical handicap, called the circumstances in the case to the attention of the Virginia State Industrial School. Mr. Rydingsvard promised to provide one-half of the amount necessary to purchase the child a pair of cork legs. $55.00. If the public would give the other half, Mr. Rydingsvard would guide in the matter. This paper gladly and willingly started a fund to raise the $60.00. You help in this cause so that provisions for this little boy to get his legs and learn to use them may be made at once. You will receive letters commencing on the case and on closing donations. In response to your appeal in the Journal aid Guide for funds to assist in securing a pair of cork legs for Master Walter Blow, you will find inclosed six dollars ($60.00) for this noble cause.

The Journal and Guide as well as the white gentleman who is Man Who Drive Car Into Pedestrians, Killing Girl, Gets Long Penitentiary Sentence. Graham, N. Q.—John Henry. Hendricks was convicted of unlawful by a jury here Wednesday of last week and sentenced to from ten to twenty years in the penitentiary at Raleigh. Hendricks is allotted to have driven an automobile into a fire at Pedestrians killing Bath Riley, white, and injuring several. Will Ford, owner of the car, and two other occupants were acquitted. Found Dead In Bed Nashville, Tennessee. Will Wilkinson, in bed here Wednesday, Bolse said she had been dead since Monday. Sixty dollars were found on his pillow. LATE REPORTS SWELL QUOTA IN THE CHEST FUND SEVERAL LARGE DONORS IN CONTRIBUTION LIST Related reports from the Community Chest Fund campaign when officially closed Tuesday night of last week continue to come in from around the world. Weebl, the secretary, estimates that the quota of $6,000 has been reached. If the official count bears out his estimate the colored charities of the city are assured of receiving 1924 based upon previous assurances that the white people would match the money raised by the colored people dollar for dollar. So the committee and solicitors worked exceedingly well in view of lack of previous experience in campaigning on such a vast scale, it is realized than any number of people have not been personally solicited. The Jack of sufficient workers also largely accounts for this condition. However, most of those who have not been solicited are acquainted with the object, and these people or organizations are asked to subscribe now or at any time through G. A. Webb at the Community Center. The colored workers collected in the colored people $800. The remainder of the amount received was made up by donations from the colored public schools and from Nigerian towns, who were solicited by white towns, who were solicited by white headquarters. This money went directly to the Community Fund general committee and did not bear the funds of the Colored Committee. Thanks Extended To All The campaign committee workers and the public extend thanks to those who in any way participated in the success of the initiative and its success. Those who subscribed are a $1 especially thanked. A number of the ministers, among whom were Rev. R. H. Bowling, Rev. F. W. Williams, Rev. D. W. White, W. Jacobs, W. Jacobs, and contributed amazingly to the success of the undertaking. The total reports of the workers could not be obtained this week, but it authoritatively reported that Rev. Williams solicited about $000.00. Much of human interest was unanswered, an innately interesting sight to behold the workers going in and out of the streets, alleys and avenues earnestly soliciting for charity without the thought of personal compensation. The response and replies that so many received out were disheartening, but they kept up the work and contributed to the success of a large humanitarian endeavor. The interest manifested by the ministers in this cause proved beyond doubt that the majority of the campaign committee members broad vision and totally unselfish in their profession. Large Donors The reporter for this paper tried zealously this week to secure the names of all the large donors, that are the main cause of the impracticability of referring to the records on file at (Continued on Page 3) Man Who Shot Wife In The Foot and Fled the City Held in Carolina.

TRIGG RESIGNS CHAIRMANSHIP OF COMMUNITY CENTER Dr. Frank Ryder Triggs, who has for a number of years been chairman of the Community Center and Chief of the Clinic has offered his resignation from the duties of these positions to take effect January 1, 1924. Dr. Triggs states that he gives up this work with much reluctance, but on account of the demands his general practice in connection with other charitable work in which he is engaged makes upon his time and energy, he is forced to take this step. When interviewed concerning the matter Dr. Triggs stated with a genuine expression of sincerity, "I give up this work with reluctance; it is very close to my heart; I have been in it since its incipiency." The resignation of Dr. Trigg, as Chairman of the Community Center and Chief of the Clinic is viewed by the general public as a distractive loss to this work and to charity.

It is estimated that more than 3,600 children have been treated by him at the clinic and the value of his work in contributing to the preservation of these young lives is insinitable. Many mothers have expressed regret at hearing that Dr. Trigg was at discontinue as head of the Community Center Clinic. Made Much Sacrifice It was learned from persons in close touch with the activities at the Community Center that Dr. Trigg has made great sacrifices in connection with this work. He has been a dedicated member of meetings during hours he could have profitably devoted to his personal interest. He has never received a penny of compensation for his time and professional service in the treatment of patients. He has been steadily stated. The work has been nearest to his heart and even now, the he is leaving it, he still maintains a deep interest in its success. The activities and aims of the Community Center exclusive of the Clinic have also received compensation. Dr. Trigg, and his interest in civic affairs has been such as to be of a great deal of benefit to the community. He was chairman of the Company Committee of the Colored Community and sacrificed considerable time in helping to make this effort a success.

By P. BERNARD YOUNG, Jr. Richmond, Va.Nov. 29—Union today defeated the crack Hampton team in the annual "Turkey Day" classic on Hovey Field in one of the most thrilling and sensationalpidron struggles ever-staged by these two teams. For three quarters Hampton held Union scoreless. In the first few minutes of play Hampton rushed the ball with a powerful attack from the center of the field to Union's 14-yard' line, where T. T. Coleman, captain and brilliant right tackle of the "Seasiders," carried the pigkin over on "kle over" play for Hampton's touch, the only score made by Union this season. Both teams were equally matched, except in weight. Union outweighed Hampton considerably. The game was thrilling from beginning to end, and would probably have been a Hampton victory, except for the breaks that went against her. Union had held Hampton for downs on her 30-yard line. Belfman fumbled and the ball was kicked in the scramble by the players who were trying to recover it, covered by Union on Hampton's 43-yard line. Union thus unexpectedly gained 27 yards. This was the turning point of the game. The third quarter ended here; in the fourth quarter Union scored a touchdown. Derritt carried the ball over from the 2-yard line on a line-plunge and Shields clinched the victory by taking a place. Kickoff was failed to happen, but he point. Hampton came back with about 6 minutes to play. By passes and line-plays she worked down from her 24-yard line to Union's 24-yard line. Here she decided to attempt a drop-kick because of the shortness of time; but before Cann could signal for the ball the timer's shrill whistle was heard and the kick that probably would have won the game was never tried. *Play Stopping.* Star Playing For Hampton everyone on the team played great ball, led by the stimulating defensive and offensive work of T. T. Coleman at tackle. His work marked him as one of the greatest tackles of the season. This is probably his last play to play for Hampton as he lost through gradation. He was a "American" honors last year and will undoubtedly gain that honor again this year. Pindle at center, Butler at guard, and Jacobs at quarter played their usual fine game. The punting of Gunn was a feature, while he was dangerous to "Union" on the passing end; Williams at tackle was a great, gainer and blocker on the defense of Coleman on the Ruffin brothers, hardwick, LEE, Hargrove, and Taylor also deserve credit. For Union Boffman led on the offense. "Julie" Martin at half is a consistent trainer. Boff 1914 miller's stellar plunging was largely Miller was Union's bright spot on the line. Barkside and Fentress also played a great game. The galaxy of exciting runs, the diversified bombardment, the tense and thrilling moments, Hampton's brilliant playing and strategy against Union, and Union's audacious teamwork marked this game as one of the best of the season. How Teams Scored Union kicked to Hampton's 22-yard line. "Jimmy!" Jones advanced the ball to Hampton's 39-yard buildup. "Buildup" Williams ploughed the line for a good 5 yards on first. play Hardwick hit for 3 yards and Williams made first down. Hampton tried a pass, Gunn to Jacobs, that netted 25 yards. It was Hampton's ball on Union's 13-yard line, but Union braced and held Hampton for downs. On Union's first play Hampton got Derritt on the line of scrimmage for no gain. Martin made 8 yards and then kicked to Hampton 8 yards. A-yard pass was not completed. On the next play, a pass from Gunn to "Jimmie Jones netted Hampton 25 yards. Williams gained 8 yards on the next two plays and Hardwick hit for first down. Williams again hit U. T. Coleman for fighting desperately under the shadow of her goal post, but her effort availed nothing as T. T. Coleman swept left end for a touchdown on the next play, the only man directly in the way being taken out of the play by Gunn, while the other hold the powerful Coleman. The try for extra point failed. Both teams struggled hard, Hampton several times threatenning Union's goal and keeping out of danger by Gunn's great kicking. Hampton was completing pass after pass and gaining through the line, while she would hold Union for downs. But Union was showing everything she had in an effort to grasp the 30-yard line. She received a punt on low 30-yard line. Through a spectacular ground throw of Boffman, Union was put in a position to score. Derritt carried the ball over from the 2-yard line and Shields made the extra point by place kick. Fentress holding the ball. Hampton received the kick-off and worked down to Union's 32-yard line, but the time was up before she could score. Hampton's great playing won her glory even in defeat and gained her many admirers who will not soon forget her gallant fight against odds. Union has a great team. Union—7 Hampton—6 Smith L. E. A.

PAUL BEAT SHAW Baptists Surprise With Strong Defense; Episcopalians' Vaunted Shift Falters As Rival Goal Line Is Neared. Raleigh, N. C. Nov. 29—St. Paul School held its place among the football game first, last and all the versity, 3 to 0, before four thousand persons, in the annual game, in the football game, but it was on a footballgame first, last and all the time. It never became the prophesied for the Orange and Black team or anything but the hardest sort of a fight. St. Paul was victorious, and that is the main thing, but was pressed to the limit to win. The game today was the first for St. Paul to play in the Thanksgiving Day and the first meeting of St. Paul and Shaw on the gridiron in Raleigh. The team that represented Shaw today in the hectic battle showed NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE aggregation Williams and "Sticky" Jacobs. T. T. Coleman, captain and brilliant right tackle of the Hampton team. He has performed wonders on the gridiron that mark him as, the greatest tackle of the year. He scored the only touchdown made on Union this season. "Bulldog" Williams, dimunite; but stellar fullback of Hampton, whose work on both offense and defense, has been a feature of the past season. He scored on St. Paul and Shaw. "Sticky" Jacobs, Hampton's heavy field general. Weighing only 15 pounds, he has as many still-working positions as he is great at receiving passes, getting one for a 45 yard run in the St. Paul game that paved the way to victory. none of the earmarks of the Maroon and White machine that was defeated by Virginia Normal, Union, Hampton, and crushed by Lincoln, the team which St. Paul played to a 3-1 tie. Shaw today looked like the celebrated Shaw machine of a decade ago. The sturdy and well-drilled bunch of Baptists played a clean game and fought valiantly from the kick-off to the final whistle. While their defense crumbled before St. Paul's exciting and vicious assault, they twelve yard lines, the sterling defensive layups, the stopped St. Paul on all dangerous occasions. Five times St. Paul wended its way deep into Shaw territory, once to the three yard line for fourth and goal, but an equal number of times did Shaw's gallant defense repel the ferocious onslaught and force the Tigers to lose the ball on downs. St. Paul, with the better offensive, was the better team, but it was the toughest bet the Sorebacks have had this year, and they just Stores erry Economy did win. St. Paul's defense was equal if not superior to Shaw's, for the latter did not advance beyond the former's 32 yard line. The famous shift of St. Paul didn't materialize to any such scoring extent as was expected and not at all inside the ten yard line. Shaw's line played a fine game in breaking up St. Paul's interference and other plays which have done big execution, and proved that it had been admirably schooled in coping with toughs' formations. St. Paul's shirt bribed physical stamina, bearing a and intrinsic sportsmanship were particularly noticeable. St. Paul scored in the second period from a placement kick by Walker from the thirty yard line. Walker tried three goals from the field from placement. The one in the third period from the thirty-five yard line, kicked from an angle, missed the upright by fourth and fourth act hit the upright two feet above the crossbar and bounded back into the field for a touchback. St. Paul won the toss and chose to kick. Parker kicked to Shaw's 10-yard line. Shaw ran the ball back to the middle of the field. Then Shaw hit twice on its straight line drive for first and on its third yard. The ball joined 4½ yards on two downs. On the third down Shaw fumbled.

Shaw made four first downs, drew a 15 yard penalty, punted six times, tried two passes, and fumbled three times, recovering once. Captain Parker shone brightly for St. Paul. He was as hard to hold as a boulder tumbling down a mountain side. He tore through Shaw's line for two long runs, one for twenty-two yards and the other for nineteen yards. His punchline line plunges, and leadership were on the run. Walker, Byrd, Sumilar, Mason and the rest of St. Paul's outfit played a hard, relentless football game. Mitchell was the star for Shaw.

He was at left tackle for Dartmouth that day, one November Saturday it was, in the Polo Grounds, back in 1920. And it is doubtful if even he could have withstood the terrific battering had it not been, for the dark and massive hulk of one the game's immortals, a Negro, who stood with him. The mighty Gus, backed to the last bitter limit by old John Arthur Shellburn, Dartmouth's nighting, 200 pound, the nighting, in his tracks, like the rock of Gilbralter, momentarily checking the onrushing tide, until Shelly, shew his magnificent physique into the breach. For the entire afternoon these two immortals hurled back the big Red Sea wave. It was one of the heroic chapters of modern football. Old Gus and Shellburn, the former face in rivers, the latter with his headgear off, his white teeth gleaming thru the bloody froth that rimmed his lips, had the time of their adventurous lives. They loved it. Time and time again Cornell sent that play ripping. Time and time again Old-Gus went burrowing in with Shelly hot on the ground. Gus used the interference and the theimer or he'd break the theimer and John would nail the runner. And the force of these tackles of Shellburner's Gus and John licked Cornell that day, while Gil Dobie gnashed his teeth. She'll never be licked again until another Gus Sonnenburen comes along. Gus will then Shellburner to trail him into that forest of human red woods. That play is a play of power. It takes power to stop it. And Shellburne and Gus were power personified GREATER NORFOLK 1924 Christmas Club Now Open We Paid $125,000.00 to our Club Members This Year (Continued from Page Two) Phyllis-Wheaty Garden at Church St. and Brambleton Avenue (Queen St.) Friday night, December 7th.

BY WILLIAM BRITTON Mr. David Lawrence thinks that the Democrat have a fine opportunity of gathering a large portion of the Negro vote in the coming national election, provided that Mr. Will Gibbs McAdoo should become the standard bearer for the party. He bases his conclusions upon what he avers to be the friendly attitude of Negroes towards the ex-Secretary of the Treasurer, fostered by his fairness toward Negro railwaymen during the war. It is a fact, well known, that the first time in the history of the country that colored firemen and brakemen received equal pay with white men in the same trades came under an order issued by Mr. McAdow when he was Secretary of the Treasury and Director-General of Railroads. If he were a klepist, it is probable he would develop strength with the race drivers to become the handicap that party is now laboring under the account of its attitude toward the Negro. But it is extremely doubtful if MA. McAdoo's popularity with colored people could do much good in a Democratic national election. The Negro is rapidly breaking from the ranks of the Republican party in State elections, but the time has come for him willing to trust his fate to national Democrats. The gagaboug of the South looms across his horizon. The South of disfranchisement and mobs comes too close to him when he votes a national Democratic ticket.

This jitney question seems to be a veritable pandora's box for Norfolk. It is never settled. Speaking for the colored jitneys, none can contradict with fairness that they are an indispensable public utility. A very few colored residents live on a direct line served by the street cars. Huntersville, Douglas Park, and Lindenwood and lower Brambleton are absolutely dependent upon the services. A few living in Huntersville, near Church street may find the street cars convenient, but the majority live in the interior and are dependent upon the buses. The colored jitneys have at considerable expense made extensive improvements in their busses and service. Most of the cars are driven by men of more mature years and they are generally careful drivers. The free lance jitney with youthful irresponsible drivers has gone for good, and new we are getting a high class service. Anything that should come up tending toward the elimination of the colored jitney must be fought. Reports eminent from Washington have it that President Coolidge lately has given a deal of consideration to the race question as it affects Republican politics. Out of this consideration it is said that he proposes to appoint a number of colored men to outstanding Government jobs in a "bilated effort to make amends Excellence Is Recognized PORO Hair and Toilet Preparation requirements and consists of the highest degree of scientific skill.

It appears that the President is being advised by the same gang, that has always taken upon itself the job of "speaking to the powers that he for the Negro." He is being ill-advised, too.

RACE WOMAM MAY SEEK TO GO TO LEGISLATURE Pennsylvania Politics In Turmoil of Confusion As Election Draws Near; Concern Manifested Over Outcome. Philadelphia, Pa.—What, promises to be interesting, politically speaking, is the coming election of members for the State legislature. Already certain names (which carry weight) have been mentioned and with the avowed purpose of one of the present members of the Legislature to 'run again', the promised fight waxes hot. It is said that according to agreement the two races meet every month on birth, but one of the members claims that he had no part in such contract, and therefore does not consider it as binding upon him. In the absence of a vital leader, it is stated by those who know, to advocate racial solidarity, this causes some concern as to the outcome. The cause of this seeming political unrest is not as yet understood, nor the extent of it appreciated by Rep. Clinton for real change of heart on the part of those who are supposed to represent our racial group. It politics is to mean anything for us, it must mean something for all of us, this being the sentiment that is voiced by numbers of those who have been doing the blinding of certain one in the "inner circle." The name of a very prominent woman is mentioned in connection with the nomination for one of the delegates, and it is rumored in certain centers the she has many friends and even many men." The Citizens' Republic Club, numbering nearly one thousand active members is already working hard to bring "peace out of long confusion" and certain things of vital importance are looked forward to in connection with this fight, as well as to the coming campaign of 1924. ROLAND HAYS'ABILITY WINSLARGE AUDIENCE Musical Art Society of Hampton Institute Presents Roland Hayes and William Lawrence. (By W. A. AERY) Hampton, Va. Nov.—Roland Hayes, tenor, who appeared in recital recently in Ogden Hall, under the auspices of the Musical Art Society of Hampton Institute, held a large and representative audience of music lovers spellbound with his wonderful singing. Thruout his program he showed that he was an artist with rare natural gift, who, by faithful training and study, had himself into the front rank of American tenors. His singing showed that he had a voice pure in quality and of amazing flexibility. In his selections he impressed upon his large audience his ability to express delicate feeling as well as dramatic power. Roland Hayes opened his program with an Italian "Ariettta" of the seventeenth century by Paradisi, which he sang with an appealing and dramatic effect, which won from his large audience hush- NEW HOSPITAL DEDICATED IN BIRMINGHAM NEW HOSPITAL DEDICATED IN BIRMINGHAM Tuggle Institute Sanatorium Formally Opened With Appropriate Exercises; Dr. Moton Principal Speaker. Birmingham, Ala., Dec. 1—Dr. Robert R. Moton, Principal of Tuskegee Institute, delivered the dedicatory address of the Tuggle Institute Hospital which was formally opened here on Thanksgiving Day. The meeting was held at the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church under the joint auspices of the Tuggle Institute and the Chamber of Commerce. Dr. Moton and his party were met at the station upon arrival by committees representing the local colored civic and fraternal organizations, and the longline of automobiles numbering more than fifty proceeded from the station to the Tuggle Institute where the formal dedicatory excercises were held. In the afternoon, Dr. Moton and his party were presented to some of the officials of the Chamber of Commerce, in the Chamber of Commerce Building, Mr. O. L. Bunn, Secretary-Manager of the organization personally conducted the party through the rooms and explained the various functions of the society. Dr. Moton delivered his address at the evening session which was held at the Sixteenth Strue Baptist Church and was introduced by Judge William E. Port of Circuit Court of Jefferson County. Judge Fort commended the work of the Tuggle Institute which was founded by Mrs. Carrie A. Tuggle and paid fitting tribute to the memory of Booker T. Washington and the work which was founded at Tuskegee. In presence of Dr. Moton, the white people of America were taking a generous attitude towards the Negro because of the work which Dr. Moton is doing. The large and appreciative audience responded with continued applause when Dr. Motton arose to speak. He described somewhat in detail the early struggles of Mrs. Tuggle in building up the wonderful institution in Birmingham which bears her name, and took occasion to counsel his hearers that the Negro race owed itself an obligation to observe with strict adherence the laws pertaining to health. He also pointed out that the white people of the country should 'see to it that the Negro was encouraged in the forts' where they met the health because of the fears that the two races so closely related, particularly in the South. He called attention to the fact that the 100,000 Negroes in the South are fick every day and this means a net economic loss of $100,000,000 to the agricultural and industrial operations of the South. ed attention, and a final burst of enthusiastic applause. His second song, "When I Am Laid in Earth," from Purecells "Dido and Aeneas" of the Sixteenth century, showed with what richness and feeling this distinguished tenor cell Gai, Danielle's Coffurtion" from "Acis and Galatea," was sung with beautiful diction and with an unusual softness and delicacy. His last song of the first group, "A Dream," sung in English, from the work of Grieg, was rendered with dramatic force to a rare climax. By Russell Glimpsed Along the Way Dropped in the Metropolitan Bank once or twice this week and noticed the crowds lining up at the eagles waiting to cash Christmas Savings checks. It was a merry looking gang, and a pleasing sight was afforded by those thrifty folks coming in to cash in on their years' sacrifice and fragrality. Join the crowd boys and girls and make it bigger next year. The Boston hatchback stand on Church street, has found it possible to have progressive ideas even in the shoe shining business. The boys have an inviting place with a plenty of polish artisans on hands. Some of us engaged in other lines might take hint from these chaps. They are trying to do business like it should be done. The place seems to be enjoying a splendid patronage, even among the ladies. Moral: Any kind of business will thrive when the right kind of people are behind it and are willing to try to satisfy the public. Noticed that the Brown Realty Company at Princess Anne Avenue and Church St has made some rearrangement of fixures on the inside. It certainly is an improvement. Friend Brown has a window lined with display advertising and it looks as if he is one of those fellows, who is made of of that come back "stuff". They say you can't keep a good man down. * Looks like John Brown Memorial Church is going to be quite pleasant on the inside this winter. Workmen are excavating underneath the structure preparatory to installing a heating plant. * Some of the race businesses along Church street have caught the holiday spirit. Among those who are already displaying daintily boxed candies are Kemp, Martin and drusgist Bass. Nothing succeeds like success, and if the gang will keep a stiff front success will be theirs. Talked with some of the insurance boys this week. They are too fishing for some of the Christmas money. Friends Brown, Mitchell, Noble and Williams all seem to be in for their share of it. In fact, this gang really has some- I've Got the B BLACK CAT BLACK CAT DON'T miss this famous Blues S low-down they back to Tom Ande Cadillac.

Called in to see brother Lewellyn, but was informed by the office young lady that he was chasing prospective policy holders. Dropped in on Blackstone's boys. They are all hoping for a merry Christmas and a happy New Year. Of course, they admitted that it will probably takeerry lying on the part of others between now and Christmas to make things a little livier for them. Our friends, Edwards, Holdes, Foreman, Howell and Wilson in the Attucks building were badly engaged in trying to get somebody out or in trouble. Any way, the gang is a progressive lot of youngsters and if anything falls they are very likely to catch it. Found friend "Piggy" busy up to the neck as he usually is. Don't know whether it was a Corporation. Court case he was working on, or next year's Norfolk football classic. Suspect it was both. Anyway, he didn't have much time and Aleck had to make short shrift of an interview around his office. Roberts and Roberts seem to have dissolved partnership in the undertaking business, and Roberts is out of distinct businesses he evolved. Mrs. V. C. Roberts is in business independently, Mr. Roberts is out for himself and Freddie Vaughn, one time helper with the firm, conducts a place of his own. They will all get something if we don't keep our feet dry. The paving of A. avenue has been completed. The residents on that thoroughfare should rejoice that the work was begun and finished before the city decided on its drastic retrenchment policy. We had hoped that hunters could have walked street year after year. This doesn't look so bright for the next paving job in that section now. That was certainly a big crowd which attended Dr. Cooke's funeral. And, my there were some mighty men, and the police had the deceased.

Ask for Paramount No. 12085. and reflect for a moment in our husky lives and ponder if as much could be said about us if we should take our departure now. But it seemed a pity that friends and relatives should have been kept waiting so long to hear the last of the funeral sites. Some were on hand as early as 1 o'clock and Alcee was among the lot. Darkness came on and the funeral was still in progress, but we become fashionable to have public funerals of great people aside from the private funeral when the family might attend without being kept mourning at the bier for several hours. * . . . * . The spirit of Thanksgiving was at its height along the way. Fashion paraded Church and Queen streets in all its splendor. Sweep swirls, lap over and blouse coats, cute millinery held sway among the ladies. Ulsters and squinting derbies were featured among the men. When it comes to society, 'Nortolk is a rival of the best northern centers for gorgeous display of the best. Our old friend Borden, proprietor of the Quick Printery on Church street, seems to be in for a tough time of it. We have heard that he has suffered a third stroke of paralysis. We are all wishing for his recovery. Mt. Jones, of the Jonas Printing Company on St. Paul street, is confined in the hospital, we are told. The-column extend sympathy to Jonas and hopes to see him out pretty soon. Old Timer, Charles S. Carter, is displaying some mighty fine fabrics for men's holiday special in suits and overcoats. Everybody knows about Carter's clothes. The gang says that Jacobs, as well as all about it, if you don't know. At any rate, the front of his place is kept like we are glad to see race business men try to keep their places. Barber shops are springing up along the way like locusts. Some of them are tonal palettes and not a few of them not a few are, just shaving houses. There is plenty of trada boys, but it's going to the fellows who care enough for it to keep inviting places. Ida Cox, the Uncrowned Queen of the Blues The Police Dragnet NOT SO EASY THIS TIME Creecy Joyner, who appeared in Police Court last week as defendant in a case involving the alleged theft of a woman's coat valued at $10.00, was defendant Monday morning of this week on a charge of being of ill fame. Last Monday Mrs. Joyner won her case on testimony that Sarah Hayes, the complainant, robbed a man whom she noticed into her (Mrs. Joyner's) home in her absence, stating that the man hold Sarah's coat. At the bar a man claiming to be her husband testified in her behalf. Last Monday she failed to have a good defense on the charge of being of ill fame and received a sentence of ten days in jail. MADE A BIG MISTAKE Mary Martin, Cove street, made the mistake of soliciting a plain clothes officer last Saturday and drew a sentence of ten days in jail for her carelessness. The policeman testified that the woman accosted him and asked for the change of a dollar. When he replied that he had no change she struck up a familiarity with him that landed her in jail. OUT OF WORK Luther James, claiming to be from New Jersey, was arrested by detective Nowitzky, when he admitted that he had no work and failed to give a satisfactory explanation of how he obtained a living. He was charged with vagrancy. Justice Spindle cautioned him to get a job and allowed him a reasonable time to secure one. Bosa Watson and Sam Henry, not of good fame, $10.00 and costs. TOOK THE WRONG OVERCOAT Alexander Mayfield and Jessie Elmore, were arraigned on a charge of stealing an overcoat. Willie Lee was the complainant, although apparently an unwilling one. Testimony added at the hearing disclosed that the four men had been in a Lincoln street house carousing unilf about 4 a.m. Mayfield testified that when he left the place he picked up an overcoat, thinking it was his. Later Willie Lee missed his coat. He was informed that Mayfield carried it from the house Lee found. Mayfield about 8 o'clock in the morning and accused him of taking his overcoat. Mayfield said that if such was the case it was a mistake. He could not correct the error at that time, because he had already sent Jessie Elmore to a pawnbroker with the coat. However, he joined Lee and they both went in search for Elmore, hoping to catch him before he succeeded in pawning the coat. Elmore was apprehended by a detective at Synder's pawnbroker just as he placed the coat upon the counter. He explained how he came in possession of the property, stating that he was sent to pawn it by Mayfield and directed the officer where to find Mayfield. Both men admitted their part in the transaction and Willie Lee admitted that they had done their best to return his coat to him. They were dismissed. STRUCK HER WITH A BRICK Mary Davis accused a Mr. Cardwell of hitting her on the head with a brick, because she refused to go to his home with him. Cardwell said he just waved the brick or her. A scar on the young woman's forehead showed that Cardwell has a wicked wave. He drew a line of $10.00 and costs for wavier with such force. TRIED TO TAKE A LOAN Ammanias Alderman, and a friend of his, were charged with house-breaking and attempted robbery. After hearing the testimony, the charges were reduced to one of disorderly conduct, upon which the men were fined $5.00 and costs. Testimony disclosed that Alderman and his friend went to the home of Louis Whitley, where Frank Stokes is a lodger, and tried to borrow fifty cents from Frank. Alderman had counted on getting the loan on the strength of Frank being a friend of Alderman's sister. Frank testified that he refused to come across with the money. Alderman and his companion became irritated and sought to take the fifty cents. Mr. Whitley, the keeper of the house, interfered, pushing Frank back into the house and closing the door. The two money seekers were determined in their quest and with their combined weight broke the door open and demanded that Frank make the loan. Mr. Whitley swore out a warrant for them. Alderman, is the man who lived up in the Chamber's case. His employer was on hand Monday morning and testified that both of the men had worked on his farm for eleven years and that he never had any trouble with them. They claimed that they were only joking with Frank. Justice Siffle told How To Control Others How to love love and friendship, make money, gain success, euro baskfulness, care for, get more joy and happiness out of life.

His Employer Failed Him John Williams, alias Boots, Maggie Pope, George Bryant, Elizabeth Hamilton, arrested at $85 Wide street, on charge involving immoral conduct drew a fine of $10.00 and costs. Williams referred to his employers, Taylor Coal Company, as to his steady character. A telephone call with an official of the company failed to help Williams, because his employer informed the officer that Williams worked once in while. George Bryant gave his age as 65, and he looked it. He appeared to suffer much embarrassment when the court inquired why he visited the Wide street address. He admitted that it was for no honorable purpose. ↑ ↑ ↑ Nelson Jenkins, Johnny Smith, Grace Brown and Joe Mitchell, 707 Grant street, pay $5.00 and costs for violating city, code section 581. Basket of Corn Joe Jackson and Walter Singleton were sent on to Corporation Court on Mapp Act charge. Walter is bootblack at 234 Queen street and was in charge when raiding officers found a market basket full of pints of corn whiskey in the year of the establishment Sunday. Jackson owns the place. Not of Good Fame Not or Good Name Daisy Haynes and Bettie Collins Grant street, were charged with naggrancy and not being of good name. It developed in cross examination of the complaining officer attorney J. Eugene Diggs that there had been no specific act of criminality committed by the women. He accused them of lounging on the corner, and of having no visible means of support. The charge failed to stand and the girls were dismissed. Got The Right Man Will Reid, 1377 Chapel street, was held for Corporation Court for mounting the Mapp act. Mr. and Mrs. James Pritchard, who occupy rooms upstairs at the Chapel St. address, narrowly escaped prosecution Friday morning when they were arraigned in Police Court as being the parties responsible for the whiskey discovered down stairs in the house. The timely intervention of the owner of the property saved them. + + + His Hold Saved Him His Hold Saved Him The levelheadness of John H. Copeland, very probably saved his life Sunday night when Sam Cloman tried to draw his gun on him. Copeland testified in Police Court that he and Sam had engaged in an argument and when he decided to end the dispute by walking off from Cloman, the man followed him down Lincoln street. Copeland says he turned and asked Sam why he was following him. Sam reached for his gun, Copeland said, and NU-LIFE SYSTEM MADAM C. J. WALKER SYSTEM Mme. M. O.

(By The Associated Negro Press) Savannah, Ga, Dec. 7—County authorities have lodged in jail Caesar Huger, a colored man said to have a chain-gang record extending back over 20 years, in connection with the so-called Mudie murder, in which Mrs. Agnes Mudie and her two-year-old daughter were slain Wednesday night. Huger has captured, murdered and bloodhounds. He denies any complicity with the double slaying. Strands of hair belonging to a white woman and footprints not similar to those of the dead woman, have led to the belief that Mrs. Mudie and her daughter might have been the victims of a jealous murderers. No interviews with the victims have been made. The officials declare they have the evidence that prove him guilty, but refuse to suggest the nature of it. No fear is felt from mobs. The husband of the dead woman refused to give her a religious burial, claiming that he is an atheist and that he and his wife had an agreement to be buried in a casket or with any religious rites. The woman and child were wrapped in clothes and thrown into a hole. Phoebe, Va.-Rev. Rev. of Braidleath Mission, preached a very inspiring sermon at Ebensner A. M. E.

SEALS ON MARKET Virginia Tuberculosis Association Has Supply of Christmas Seals. Richmond, Va. Dec.—The annual sale of tuberculosis Christmas seals has begun. For 1923 there sixteen seals were sold in the counties in Virginia. Last year the amount realized in the State was $55,568.30 which was devoted largely to the health work in the counties and cities in which the money was raised. These funds were used to support free tuberculosis clinics, public health nurses, indigent patients at the sanatorium and pre-hospital, among others, fresh air classes, nutrition classes, summer camps and the Modern Health Crusade. Last year the Seal Sale in the United States was $3,842,500 and the per capita sale in cents ranged in the different states from 0.8 to 8.5 for the population. The highest per capita sale was in New York State (exclusive of New York City, Brooklyn and Queens) The lowest sale was in Georgia. Virginia raised 2.3 and Tennessee 2.5. The population of the two States is almost the same. The State is well organized to sell the Christmas Seals and it is expected that the sale will pass any previous record.

Elimination of Free School Books The JOURNAL and GUIDE appreciates the magnitude of the problem that confronted the Council in holding the 1924 budget within $2.75 tax rate in conformity with a public demand, but it is to be regretted that of the means adopted to accomplish this end a partial elimination of free school books had to be included. To dispense with free distribution of tax The JOURNAL and GUIDE appreciates the magnitude of the problem that confronted the Council in holding the 1924 budget within a $2.75 tax rate in conformity with a public demand, but it is to be regretted that of the means adopted to accomplish this end a partial elimination of free school books had to be included. To dispense with free distribution of textbooks in the elementary schools, if not a step backward, is at least a decided halt in educational progress. In recent years the South has undergone an awakening along educational lines out of which has grown a lengthening of school terms, better pay for teachers, increased appropriations for schools and compulsory educational laws. With all of this the opportunities for obtaining learning in the North are still in advance of those in the South. This section cannot afford to take a backward step, nor pursue any course that will arrest its forward march. Distribution of free textbooks to elementary grades prevails in practically all Northern and Western communities, where it is a boast that education is as free as it can be made. With a reasonably enforced compulsory education law, a nine school term and free school books, every impairment of the opportunity for the young to obtain a learning education and objection as it should be. President Coolidge and the "Gold Discover" Diggers The President of the United States is our social, as far as the Afro-American people are concerned, but the "Pittsburgh Courier," which shows signs of being a knuckle close Republic man, does not think so. It takes exception to a publication in the "New York World," which instituted that our voters in the North and West are opposed to the President because of the Slepmp and Tuskegee Hospital business and it brands the World article "as nothing but the scheme of a few gold diggers who are looking for money." Perhaps. We are not in their confidence. The Courier then gives them a picture of its viewpoint. "All men of any sense know the President is trying to, complete the term of office which was given to his predecessor. If Mr. Coolidge ever becomes the President of the United States at the expense of the franchise of the people, then will it be quite time enough to as him to assert his definite and fixed policy to ward domestic as well as foreign questions. That is the very point of the matter. I President Coolidge adheres to the policy, "de- mine and fixed," towards us bequeathed him by President Coolidge, he will not be able to reverse himself and that policy when and if he should become President "at the expense of the franchise of the people," which is a very prude and confusing way to phrase it, to say the least. We are expected to swallow him at the next election, Harding policy adhered to and wait to to show what he has for policy of his own toward us after he becomes President at the expense of the franchise of the people. That is to say, we are expected to accept President Coolidge with the Harding Policy as his and wait. We are not "a gold digger," what ever that may signify, but we are not going to to as the Courier advises; we are going to know where President Coolidge stands with us be- fore we decide to stand with him in the Nov- ember elections of next year. The Afro- American voters of New York, New Jersey, Maryland, West Virginia, and other states were in record in this matter in the elections last month. They voted against "the sight un- seen" business and against the insinuation of what they should do, made by the Courier and they will do it next year, if President Coolidge shall not in the mean time revers the Harding policy towards us, and show his official acts that he has so reversed him self. Make no mistake about that. The President of the United States is on trial, as far as the Afro-American people are concerned, but the Pittsburgh Courier, which shows signs of being a knuckle close Republican, does not think so. It takes exception to a publication in the New York World which insinuated that our voters in the North and West are opposed to the President because of the Slemp and Tuskegee Hospital business, and it brands the World article "as nothing but the scheme of a few gold diggers who are looking for money." Perhaps. We are not in their confidence. The Courier then gives this pen picture of its viewpoint. "All men of any sense know the President is trying to complete the term of office which was given to his predecessor. If Mr. Coolidge ever becomes the President of the United States at the expense of the franchise of the people, then will it be quite time enough to ask him to assert his definite and fixed policy toward domestic as well foreign questions." That is the very point of the matter. If President Coolidge adheres to the policy, "definite and fixed," towards us bequeathed him by President Harding, he will not be able to reverse himself and that policy when and if he should become President "at the expense of the franchise of the people," which is a very crude and confusing way to phrase it, to say the least.

Make no mistake about that. Sayings Account of the Nation It should be of the greatest interest to the readers of the JOURNAL and GUIDE that is many of them are of the thrifty class, who have something of what they earn and make a possible for us to have such splendid banks and insurance companies and young businesses enterprises as we have in all sections of Tide River and dear old Virginia. It should also be a pleasure to them to know that the race is either sections of the country, is making, or creditable showing. Dollars do not make the man, it is true, but it is also true that man is rated by the dollars he makes; another instance, this, of many, showing the natural disposition to worship the thing, the creature created rather than the maker of it. We can not explain this queer in the human complex that is, the wise men of the age have explained it for us. But, in most of our living, we mayify the thing we create and underrate the creator of the thing. That is to say, we back up to instead of facing ourselves, and our creatures. It stands to reason that the thrifty among us have their savings counted in the who savings of the Nation as a National as we as race credit, and we are beginning in a large and appreciative way to deposit our savings where they can be used to our best advantage. That is a very good thing to consider as we pass out of the Old into the New Year. The following statement shows the aggregate savings, in which we have a part, of course, to wit: "American added more than $1,000,000,000 to their savings accounts during the fiscal year ended June 30, figures of the Bankers' Association show. The increase of $1,041,588,000 per cent over the 1921-1922 figures, are the total savings deposit of $18,737,062,000 now comprise 52 per cent of all bank deposits in the United States. Average savings deposits per capita in various regions of the country are: New England $105; Southern States, $45; West Central States, $34; Middle Atlantic States, $270; East Central States, $147; and Pacific States, $193. All these figures represent substantial increase over the previous year." Why should New England lead the Nation in the average savings of its people? Why should the South be so far behind in this matter? Anyhow, it should be made a point to duty with each member of our group to save a little more during the year we are entering upon than he saved in the year we are leaving behind us. In that way we shall strengthen our own position in every place where we are and where dollars count for so much in measuring character as well as help to fetch up average savings of the whole South. Who have the savings habit should cling to those who have not the savings habit should get it and cultivate it. It should be of the greatest interest to the readers of the JOURNAL and GUIDE that so many of them are of the thrifty class, who save something of what they earn and make it possible for us to have such splendid banks and insurance companies and young business enterprises as we have in all sections of Tidewater and dear old, Virginia. It should also be a pleasure to them to know that the race in other sections of the country is making, a like creditable showing. Dollars do not make the man, it is true, but it is also true that man is rated by the dollars he makes; another instance, this, of many, showing the natural disposition to worship the thing, the creature, created rather than the maker of it. We cannot explain this queer in the human complex; that is, the wise men of the age have explained it for us. But, in most of our living, we magnify the thing we create and underrate the creator of the thing. That is to say, we back up to instead of facing ourselves, and our creatures. It stands to reason that the thrifty among us have their savings counted in the whole savings of the Nation as a National as well as race credit, and we are beginning in a large and appreciative way to deposit our savings where they can be used to our best advantage. That is a very good thing to consider as we pass out of the Old into the New Year. The following statement shows the aggregate savings of the Nation for the past twelve months, as well as the aggregate savings, in which we have a part, of course, to wit: "Americans added more than $1,000,000,000 to their savings accounts during the fiscal year ended June 30, figures of the American Bankers' Association show. The increase of $1,041,583,000 is 6 per cent over the 1921-1922 figures, and the total savings deposit of $18,373,622,000 now comprise 52 per cent of all bank deposits in the United States. Average savings deposits per capita in various regions of the country are: New England, $405; Southern States, $45; West Central States, $94; Middle Atlantic States, $270; East Central States, $147; and Pacific States, $190. All these figures represent substantial increases over the previous year." Why should New England lead the Nation in the average savings of its people? Why should the South be so far behind in this matter? Anyhow, it should be made a point of duty with each member of our group to save a little more during the year we are entering upon than he saved in the year we are leaving behind us. In that way we shall strengthen our own position in every place where we are and where dollars count for so much in measuring character as well as help to fetch up the average savings of the whole South. Those who have the savings habit should cling to it; those who have not the savings habit should get it and cultivate it. Christmas Savings Checks Those who have been frugal and farsight enough to be the recipient of a Christmas savings check covering a full year's deposit has something tangible upon which to base incipations of a pleasant holiday. The Christmas saving idea is thorough American. Few ideas advanced in modern times have gained an equal popularity with masses in so short a time. It's object is cultivate the habit of thrift. Just how much real thrift is inspired by the practice is a number of conjecture.

The Christmas saving idea is thoroughly American. Few ideas advanced in modern times have gained an equal popularity with the masses in so short a time. Its object is to cultivate the habit of thrift. Just how much real thrift is inspired by the practice is a master of conjecture. Out of it a few are led-to acquire the habit of steady and systematic saving, but the majority is stimulated to sacrifice and save thru the anticipation of spending at Christmas time. It is to be expected that the bulk of Christmas saving money will readily flow into the avenues of trade. Most of the people who save in this way have denied themselves to do so, and when they receive their checks they will partially recompense themselves for the year of denial. However, the more thoughtful will spend wisely with the aim of getting the most value for the money spent. It is not necessary to horde money and go without the necessities of life to be thrifty. Thrift consist of judicious spending. EASY E ORGANIZED ENGLISH Nouns, Inflection, Construction, Substitutes 4, Inflection is a change in the form of a verbal to denote a change in its meaning.

Mr. Hayes has returned from Europe where he was highly by the critics for his excellent praise. He comes to America and sing the country's leading orchestra. He was born in Curryville, Ga., and arrived at Fisk University, beginning his career in 1912. Through the year's continued his studying and moved to Mass, while he was studying there. La he made his first tour of Europe and accepted by the critics and the public to the best tenor of the time. The London says of him: "At the end of the recital, a curious happened. Nobody moved or took his the platform. They had had reality them, and, it was gone. He is one greatest living artists in the field he has been." This and similar utterances were about him. To us his recognition on the tinster should be an inspiration. To us who usually say, 'Oh, what's the Roland Hayes' optimism, persistent broad vision be an example, to show the merit does count. Roland Hayes, Negro, has been selected by the Boston Symphony Orchestra as its tenor for this year. Mr. Hayes has recently returned from Europe where he was lauded highly by the critics for his excellent performance. He comes to America and sings with the country's leading orchestra. He was born in Curryville, Ga., and studied at Fisk University, beginning his musical career in 1912. Through the years he has continued his studying and moved to Boston, Mass., while he was studying there. Last year he made his first tour of Europe and was accepted by the critics and the public there as the best tenor of the time. The London Times says of him: "At the end of the recital, a curious thing happened. Nobody moved or took his eyes off the platform. He had had reality before them, and it was gone. He is one of the greatest living artists in the field he has chosen." This and similar utterances were made about him. To us his recognition on this continent should be an inspiration. To those of us who usually say, "Oh, what's the use," let Rolond Hayes' optimism, persistence and broad vision be an example, to show that true merit does count. A Shortage of Scapegoats Greenbush, (N. C.) Daily News To Frank Tannenbaum may fairly be applied the refrain of a prehistoric popular ballad: "He may be crazy, but he isn't no fool." That assertion is based upon a reading of "A shortage of Scorpegats," an essay in the December number of the Century, in which Mr. Tannenbaum discusses the Negro problem with more intelligence than 99.44 per cent of the Northerners, or that 99 per cent of the Southerners who talk about it, exhibit. The Daily News before now has noticed the series of articles on southern conditions and problems that this writer has presented in the clarity of vision and the fresh point of view which have characterized the work; but in none of the articles were those characteristics so conspicuous as they are in this one. We do not believe that human being could say anything new about the Negro problem, but Frank Tannenbaum has presented some more or less familiar ideas with a force and clarity that render them, for all practical purposes, new ideas. The argument in brief is that what the South needs is not less trouble, but more, because if she had another dear uncle to wallow she might now and then give the Negro a rest. We respectfully submit that that may be a crazy idea, but it isn't as foolish as you might think. We all know, and nobody knows better than the Negro himself how the whole life of the South is permeated with the flavor of slavery, and is motivated by it—schoolboy knows that the South votes Democratic regularly because the Republican party unfortunately was mixed up with the Negro 50 years ago, and has not yet won clear of the encumbrance. But it only begins with strictly political affairs. Within the memory of men still young, right here in North Carolina the necessity of educating Negro children has been used as an effective argument, taxes for the punishment of Negro women was the decisive argument that caused the legislature of North Carolina to reject the nineteenth amendment. Fifteen years ago a Negro drunk was by far the most powerful argument presented by the prohibitionists; but in other cases the presence of the Negro has been just as lively urged as an argument against social forms—for instance, the punishment by the juvenile court. The terrific problem of the tenant farmer is complicated by the Negro, and the savagery of our crop lein laws is due mainly to the imagined necessity of holding him in line. The organization of labor has been almost hopelessly handicapped by his presence. The problem of municipal sanitation is rendered more difficult by the necessity of taking care of Negro quarters, and, as Mr. Tannenbaum points out, the elimination of lynchings and spies is definitely delayed by the obstacle. And so it goes, right down to the question of domestic service which is notoriously slovenly and inefficient in the South because it has for generations been in the hands of Negroes exclusively. In short, in every department of life everything that the South does, or says, or thinks is somewhere predicted on the Negro problem, somehow modified by his presence among us. Politically we have managed to maintain white supremacy, but is it not true that it has been done at the cost of suffering Negro domination in the realm of ideas. If we cannot do, or say, or think anything without first considering the Negro, it is hard to see how it can be denied that the Negro dominates the imagination of the South. If, now, we had another problem suddenly thrust upon our attention—say; for instance, foreign immigration—we might be less obsessed by the Negro for the simple reason that we should have less time to thing about him. It might even come to pass that we should fear him less by finding that we had exaggerated the monte that his problem affords; the intricate nature of the element would solve problem, but then there is no solution for it anyhow; and it might cause a readjustment of that problem that would make it easier to bear.

In the course of time the Community Chest idea will invade every city, of any size in the United States. A beneficial institution like Truth cannot be successfully stiffed. The present status of a cheerful disposition at this season of the year is due largely to the amount of emphasis placed on one's ability who is tempted to do nothing but wait for Christmas to come. With proper support the Republican party intends to dock its ship of state regardless of the rough weather, provided the captain can manipulate the tiller—of the soil. After all, Wills has not as much to be discouraged about as some of the champions ofvere who will win the race. He can at least show his wares without fear of a barrage of bad eggs or overripe tomatoes. A generous argument to the effect that a tax reduction depends on whether or not Congress passes a soldier bonus would no doubt end with both sides claiming victory, and a general belief that the public is not only behind both, but inclined to push both. During the fiscal year through the country 11,268,469 liquor permits were issued. Did you know that you can get a pint every fifteen days? Nobody for harmous support of prohibition could be more fair and courteous. "Eighty per cent of American babies are cow fed," says Ms. Stockman of Michigan. Judging from the stampedes we treated to day in and day out, there must be some truth in this statement and as a remedial we would suggest lady fingers and goat's milk for a change. Battling Siki drew down only $15,000 for his battle against Kid Norfolk. Not so bad eh? Well that's what advertising does for a business. MORAL: The cackling hen draws a bigger audience than the whining pup. Under the law in France a doctor may be fined so imprisoned for dividing details of a patient's ill-health so in this country, but if it were, those 11,000,000 liquor prescriptions would speak for themselves. One of the greatest problems of the Christmas holidays is accustoming one's self to receiving business-looking' letters without suspicion that they are bills for something your wife has charged. A VITAL QUESTION Where are the laughs of years gone by. That flowed with mirth so hearty? The guffaw style at which we sigh When at a country party. In spite of every thing I vow Our moods are growing solemn; Old themes of jest now start a row, They're banned from many a column. We're bored by folks who oft beate And squash the comic stuff, It's quite the proper thing of late To smile. Not laugh, just bluff. Where are the laughs we use to hear Before we grew so soue? Dig down beneath the surface, bare The roots of Nature's Flower. Make big plans! Never dream of little things! He who has misgivings as to the finish will never start anything.

And 'mid the great display, The teacher and the pupil sang. With hearts, so light and free, A song they sang. My country, 'tis of thee. While listening to that, dear old song, I noticed a small happy face, A face that beamed with glee. "Twas just a little Colored boy, But he appeared (to so joyously) My country, tis of thee. The exercise over, and, I needed to speak, I wanted just to talk, him. He sang that song so sweet. "Our people, who are treated, you Deeply, then do you sing happily My country 'tis of thee." A happy smile, stole over his face As thus to me he spoke. "My Granny said, long years ago There wasn't any hope. She was a little older and free She was a little older and free She dainty love to hear me sing My country 'tis of thee." She often tells me of the shaves, Mens to work. Her Masters too sometimes cruc And whipped them if they shirked." "She said, they came from Africa. From far across the sea, They did not know, and could not sing My country 'tis of thee." "She told me of the sodder boys. Yes, Colorad soldiers too. She said, that they were brave men. And were suits of army-blue." "She said, they died in a great war, Died that I might be and And when other children sing My country 'tis of thee." "And Granny said, my father went Our seas to fight the Hun. She said, he'll not come home again. The'o now the war is win." "My mother cries, and hugs us tight, And likes Jack and me. And says she likes to hear me sing 'My country 'tis of thee.'" "She told me of great Colored men. The women lived in this land, Who suffered much, that we might live And for the right 'er stand.' "Now alr. I've told you all I know But 'tis enough for me. And when I think of it, I sing My country tis of this." The Whatnot Column BY ROBEET P. EDWARDS (For A. N.

Business business requires ledge of the business that one engages in, hon- esty, strict attentio- tion to business at all times, promptness in meeting obligations, and HONESTY. You may gain the confidence of the public and thereby a large patronage, but if you prove dislike will not permit the confidence and respect of the difference with you, and the result will be a gradual loss of your patronage. You may not observe this loss at first because of the fact that new patrons are constantly coming in, but in time you will see the mistake of being dishonest for there is even an end to numbers. One may succeed for a while by mirepresentation and sharp bargains, but this will not last. Strict observation at all times should be observed at all times when another does not give his attention to his business. To succeed one must be on the job at all times during business hours. OBLIGATIONS. To gain and hold the confidence of creditors, you must meet your obligations promptly. No one can successfully run a business of any proportion unless they can get credit. ADVERTISE. You cannot hope to sell your wares unless you let the public know you have them for sale. ```markdown ``` Greeting Cards for Christmas NOW ON DISPLAY IN OUR OFFICE You cannot send your friends a more appropriate expression of the Christmas Spirit than a beautifully designed and worded Greeting Card.

Success In Business To succeed in business requires first of all a knowledge of the busi- business requires edge of the business that one engages in, honesty, strict attention to business at all times, promptness in meeting obligations and systematic advertising. PETER B. To acquire a knowledge of the business is of the greatest importance. If you have no working knowledge of the business to start with, you will not be able to meet intelligently the simple requirements that will confront you at the outset. There are certain things, that must be done in connection with all businesses from the moment you invite the public to trade with you. If you are not informed how to meet prospective customers and present state propositions in a clear and concise manner, you at once bring upon yourself unnecessary, but deserving criticism from the public which will cause not only your patrons, but those who are contemplating dealing with you, to lose confidence in you from the start and confidence once lost will be harder to regain than to obtain at first. The first impression made is always the most lasting one. It is therefore necessary that you be able to convince those you deal with of your ability to satisfy them. If you enter into a business that you are not familiar with, someone who thoroughly understands the business to work with you until you have acquired sufficient knowledge of it to carry it on intelligently without assistance. By doing this, you will more quickly enter upon the road to success. No regiment of troops in the service was more renowned at the close of the war than the Fifty-fourth Massachusetts Regiment of Infantry (The Heroes of FL Wagner), which was under the command of Colonel Snow. Being granted protection over two per cent white soldiers, the regiment to a man, for eighteen months refused to receive one cent from the Government. This was a spectacle that the country could no longer stand. One thousand volunteers fighting the country's battles without any compensation rather than submit to a discrimination law, and sentiment that Congress was compelled to pat them on the pay-roll on equal footing with all soldiers. 76—Who was: Captain Vincent? cebt? In 1714 the Gov. of the French colony of San Domingo made one Vincent the Captain-general of all colored militia in the vicinity of the cape. This Capt. Vincent died in 1780 at the age of 120 years. He had been in the siege of Cartegenta in 1697, was taken prisoner; afterwards liberated by exchange, and fought in the German wars under Villers de St. Mary, in his description of Vincent, incidentally mentions the Savannah expedition. He says, "I saw him the year preceding his death, recalling his ancient prowess to the men of color: who were enrolling for the Savannah expedition. Vincent had a most pleasing color, combining black skin with his white hair, produced an effect that always commanded respect."
