Bishop W. Sampson Brooks Tells of Conditions In Africa KILLS TO DEFEND MOTHER 12 PAGES IN TWO PARTS L. XXIV. No. 16 TIRRING SERMON NDLECTURE GRIP ARGE AUDIENCE Great Emotion Aroused In Congregation As Bishop Delivers Graphic Word Picture on Conditions In Africa RGE COLLECTIONS..... FOLLOW APPEAL There is not the least doubt that it had been possible for the eleventh Negroes of America representing a billion of dollars of wealth, to have sat in John's A. M. E. Church last night, and had they gathered there, and listened to the sermon plea of Bishop W. Sampson books of Monrovia, Liberia, West Africa, for the heathen in the continent, Africa's redemption would have been underwritten the morrow. No man ever remitted from that continent and gave a more graphic, heartening word to the non-made a more perverse, forceful, gripping appeal to the civilized world for aid its benighted natives than he. Neither is there any doubt at if the large crowd that did St. John's church Sunday had "known that they were going to hear what they did hear, they have carried doubt as much money as they did carry. Bishop Brooks came to the city attending the Vigil of the Conference in A. M. E. Church and just closed its seat at Emmanuel Church in pittsburgh. Thursday night at conference he swayed the sat crowd with his call for aid Africa. In fact, Africa and people have possessed the whole king of Bishop Brooks. It is just impossible for him to talk in minutes without mentioning him. Their cause is his life's decision and to their redemption in dedicated his energies. The Bishop preceded his lecture with a brief seminar, but evidently that the people of Norfolk is sufficient preaching to, be likely proceeded to lay before on the conditions of one hundred forty millions of their fellow in Africa and pointed our duties in relation to them. Athletic training at the prestigious African diet shop Brooks has succeeded in setting at a cost of $75,000, a school, Monroe College and Industrial School, in West Africa and for it out of funds raised by myself without any contribution, never from the Foreign Miss in Department of his church. Of a population of 150 million of people on the continent, the shop said, not more than ten million are civilized. The heathen of 140 millions wrecks will be degradation, he told the audience. Men, he said, pursue their wives for whom to ten twenty-five dollars each who are impelled to foray for them, bring their husbands and enslaughters the husbands and almost the infants in laborers. The husband, in turn, these earns the money to buy more fields, he is compelled to more money to provide the husband with the means to continue his endless cycle of buy-wives. Superstition, the Bishops, compels the natives to kill amidst after birth all two twins. Day-old infants are exceded to the rays of the sun which sets the air to ninety degrees for any hours. If they survive, if a good omen and they are fit to die, the heathens believe, and if die, they believe. Of heathen women not lived. Of heathen women not lived the fields thrice in heat of the day with their offerings tied to their backs, he said. Women are sold in their industry and never have any say nothes over their own bodies, he bishop related. The shoulders of a native are the means of short and long travel and looked paths are the highways they worship anything and eat anything and wear less than a half garment to obscure their shame. Afrikan, he stated, must be resented by the classes and not by the masses. Merchants, skilled artisans and educators and capitalists are needed on the continual basis to keep out. Their presence will simply add to the misery, he said his heavens. Pleads For Africa BISHOP W. SAMPSON BROOKS But amidst the darkness of Africa and the hazard of its fever-laden climate, Bishop W. Sampson Brooks has wrought marvelously. He went to Liberia, West Africa, a little less than four years ago, immediately after his election to the bishopric at the last General Conference held in St. Louis, Mo. Since taking up his position there, the Moorish College and Industrial School, the (Continued on Page Nix) PREPARE FOR FINE SHOWING IN BOYS' LOYALTY PARADE 1. a. other of the seven At a meeting of the committee having charge of the program for the observance of boys' Week among the colored division hold it in auditorium of the old Black Jack B.

All the only partial reports were available at this time to some organizations expected to help promote the success of the observance, having not yet prepared their reports, enough attention extended to convince the members of the committee that most emphasis will be placed upon the value of the boy that week.

Riley Three) HEALTH CLINIC WILL BE CLOSED FIRST OF MAY Director of Public Welfare Schenck Recommends To Council Discontinuance of Work on Princess Anne Ave PROMINENT PHYSICIAN MAKES STATEMENT The City Council received a letter from Director of Public Welfare Schenck Tuesday afternoon, recommending the colored health clinic at 808 Princess Anne avenue be discontinued at the expiration of the city's lease on the building May 1. The reason for shutting down the work, as given by the Director, is said, was because the colored doctors discontinued their co-operation. At the same time Dr. Schenck recommended that two colored dentists be employed on part-time for the colored dental clinic work. The council adopted this recommendation. The announcement of the closing of the clinic did not occasion surprise among the colored people but it caused them very serious regret. It has been known for some time that the Colored Physician Club composed of the unit attaining colored贮器 of the city and the Director of Public Welfare seemingly have been at odds over the policy of the health department relative to clinical work among the colored people. PHYSICIAN MAKES STATEMENT Upon hearing the reason given by the Director of Public Welfare for recommending a discontinuation of the work at the center a prominent physician and member of the club stated to a representative of the Journal and Guide that Dr. Schenck's statement about "non-cooperation of the colored doctors" was misleading. In this connection he said, "the fact is Colored Physicians. Club made suggestions which, if they had been considered by Dr. Schenck would have done more for the alleviation of the sick among their people than was done by the clinic." The "colored physicians, know that the just, reasonable and practicable thing to do is to have physicians of color to attend the charity patients of their race, as it is certain that more satisfactory results would be obtained. The health department has in its several white doctors a clinical in spite of the fact that the largest number of people requiring treatment at the public expense are members of the colored race. "Several years ago a tuberculosis clinic was maintained by the colored physicians of the city and promises were made at that time if it was conducted properly for a certain length of time some member of their group might be called in time. This was efficiently conducted beyond the suggested time yet nothing ever came out of the promises. No way was given the physician in charge nor his nails and as yet none of the colored physicians have been given any official standing. "The school board a few years ago appointed a colored physician to the colored schools and the health department revoked this appointment. DOCTORS READY TO COOPERATE "The colored physicians stand ready to cooperate with the Director of Public Welfare who any other agency might be done on ethical and dignified grounds." It is connection with the health center on Princess Anne avenue, the opinion among the colored people is that the doctors did not feel constrained to continue to give their time and talent to this work as long as the health department persistently refused to use any colored physicians in the paid security work, making appear of this nature among the white doctors exclusive to do the task among colored people for which the city provided compensation. Mass Meeting For Women There will be a Big Mass Meeting for Women at the Community Center. Thursday, April 24th, at 3 P.M. All women over 21 years are urged to be present. Lawyers W. W. Foreman and W. L. Davis will be present and give instructions on voting.

Race Aviator And Dave Devil Plans Alone Flight Around the World---To Speak in Norfolk Lieutenant Hubert Jalima, the race's noted aviator, dived and parachuted jumper, was in the city this week when he arranged to deliver lectures at the Attica Theatre, Thursday, April 21, and on Saturday an on-air interview with the captain interested in his contemplated flight around the world to begin daily 1, and to promote an interest among his race in the science of aeronautics. Also INVENTOR Lieutenant Jalima is an international figure in the world of aeronautics. He was the only colonel flyer in France during the world war, being then a member of the Canadian Flying Corps, and a commissioned officer at the Canadian Air Force. Since that time he has devoted all of his time and energy to flying, having featured some of the most hair running and thrilling exhibition stands in an aerophone witnessed in the history of the lighter than air machines. Accompanying Lieutenant Belin Mayard of the United States in a helicopter of 22,000 feet in November 1922, Lieutenant Jalima stepped from the aerophone and gracefully descended to earth in a parachute. During the Police Field Day in New York last year he thrilled station spectators with amazing forms of aerophone diving devilty for which he received the award of the Police Committee and the online department from a prominent police prosecutor. Lieutenant Jaliline is not only a first-rate pilot, jumper and simulator performer but he is also an inventor of the motor-driven parachute intended as a safety appliance for airplanes and which he uses to protect his wife. He says he worked out the idea which in a hospital in France darine the war and that he has been offered a small fortune for his patent rights. For his proposed around the world flight he is having built a specially designed machine for long distance traveling. This plane is being built by the German him Aim. He is building a cost of $8,000, with a down payment of $5,000 and $2,000 a week. With this plane Lieutenant Julian expects to make history and bring a singular honor to his race. The machine is promised delivery in May and he expects to hop off from New York.

Bowling is in Charleston, West Virginia, this week where he is assisting Reymond Johnson in conducting a retreat. News comes to this city that his efforts have been successful. The meeting for men only Sunday after noon is said to have been a singular event and attended by an overflow crowd of mobs. Every service is said to have been witnessed by record breaking crowds. One hundred and four persons of every walk of life have been converted, or reclaimed during the service. The active students in the campain are said to be some of the most prominent citizens of the town including Mr. G. H. James, wealthy wholesale produce dealer; Prof. Boyd, the high school principal; Dr. Gammeth, one of the leading physicians, and Mr. T. G.

Nathuridt Dept., musical director of Hampton Institute and pianist and composer of national reputation, will appear here in the City Armory Friday night, April 25, with the Institute's Gloss Club has been received by the people of New York and vicinity with great elation. Many people, both white and colored in this community have amnished a whole year's secrets over their failure to hear Mr. Dett and his singers when they were here last year. There will probably be only a very few in that class after these professionals appear at the arsenal next week. Prof. Dett has recently returned from a concert tour of the West which included Cappahannock, Va.; St. Paul, Selkirk and Winnipeg, Canada; Chicago, Cleveland, St. Canada? Chicago, Louis, Oklahoma City, Fort Worth and Cincinnati. Everywhere this Negro composer-pianist was greeted by large and appreciative audiences. His compositions were played and sung by leading whites and colored musicians. His recital lectures were given wide and favorable newspaper reports. The music critics were unanimous in their praise of Mr. Dett's work as composer and pianist. They paid tribute to him as "the first American to express the Negro folksong in classical terms.

SEVERAL CHANGES IN PASTORS UP-STATE The fifty-eight session of the Virginia Annual Conference of the A. M. E. Church closed after three days meeting in Enmanuel Church, Portsmouth, Sunday night to meet next year at Eastville, V. Baptist, J. Albert Johnson of the Second Episcopal District presided over the sessions. The conference proved to be very successful in every phase and was said to have been one of the best held over the long span of years. The attendance was more than 14 thousand and the collections totaled nearly 22 thousand dollars. Quite a number of transfers of pastors were effected in the upstate districts, but the charges in Tidewater were left practically unchanged. Rev. J. A. Young returns to St. John, Norfolk; Rev. W. M. Roberts, John M. Brown; Norfolk; Rev. R. J. Seruggs; Rev. E. J. Burke; Enmanuel Portsmouth; Rev. J. A. Martin, Mt. Zion, Norfolk; Rev. J. A. Nottingham, Trinity, Berkley; Rev. D. A. Blake, St. James. South Norfolk. No changes were made in the presiding elders. Bishop W. Sampson Brooks, who has just returned from Africa, preached the ordination sermon Sunday morning. Many prominent visitors, A. M. E. ministers and laymen from other Conferences were present among whom were: R. C. Ransom, Editor of the A. M. E. Review; Prof. R. F. Woodson, Dean of Theology, Wilberforce University; Dr. John H. Hawkins, Dean of the University of M. Conferencer; Prof. G. H. Edwards, president of Kittrell College; the Rt. Rev. W. Sampson Brooks of West Africa; S. S. Morris secretary of the Allen Christian Endeavor League and G. F. David of Lexington, N. C. People throughout Portsmouth and adjacent communities took advantage of the meeting in Tidewater to witness the smooth functioning of the Virginia Annual Conference in session. Large number of sessions and intense interest was manifested in the various reports addresses, sermons and appointments. Probably one of the things enjoyed most by visitors at a conference of the A. M. E. Church is the opportunity to shake hands with former pastors and their wives. The younger people of the church look with deep interest upon the whitening heads of ministers who postpone children. The anecdotes and reminiscences of from a quarter to half century in the service by some of the pastors fill the visitors with emotion. The citizens of Portsmouth very befittingly entertained the visitors, the pastor and officers of Emanuel Church having arranged a smooth working process in their own income. This added much to the pleasantry of the occasion. Full list of appointments giver on page six.

WELL-HEAH AH AM WORKIN' IN "SLEEPY HOLLOWS LUNCH ROOM. That, athletics, coupling mental with physical effort, are indispensable in a well balanced school is the concensus of opinion. Some talk has recently spread that football is an interloper—it detracts from the studies, they say. But on the contrary it and other sports are a help. One is not successful on the field unless one is keen, alert, courageous, determined. It has been found true that during the seasons of athletic activities athletes show better work in the closet room and a keeper spirit toward their lessons. Regardless of what the reason is this in itself would be enough to silence such talk. Good judgment, control, cool calculation, quick thinking, quicker action—these are some of the results, of participation in athletics, and it does not have to be a varsity team to inculcate those virtues. The field of athletics is no place for unsound thinking, poor judgment, or slow calculation. No place will more quickly expose a lack of those qualities that an athletic contest, where results are measured more exactly by the amount and quality of thought employed. - mental balance, zeal, correct living, grit, a love of fair play, faithful training, good judgment, control, cool calculation, quick thinking—these are essentials of a good athlete. It is needless to say that they are a result of participation in athletics. And one of the blessings of athletics is that one does not have to make the "first team" to acquire at least some of these attributes. Try it. WAKE EM ALL DAWGONE DAT PHONE AM RINGIN AGIN! DRRING DING-G And in the final analysis it is, with very few exceptions, a fact that an athlete carries these things into his life after he leaves school. That is perhaps, after all, the most important thing gained. In amassing facts and so forth, we come across some new star of the athletic world nearly each week—a dark skin hero we refer to. The latest and perhaps the most important recent achievement of a colored lad was that of Otis Sexton, Chicago school boy. Sexton is a dash man of one of the high schools of that city. He recently equaled the world's record for the fifty yard dash, running it in five and one fifth seconds. This is a notable event in that the United States at this time possesses some of the fastest, or the fastest men in the world. With the advent of Sexton this gives the race these men who will more than likely make the lighter brothers step for an Olympic berth: Albert Washington, Hussey, Sexton, Gourdin, and Harry F. V. Edwards. These men are all capable of doing the century dash with a fraction of the record. But there are likely to be others. Among those others will more than likely be some athletes from among the Negro schools. The winning of a championship in the Hampton National Meet gives an athlete the opportunity of an Olympic tryout. There are goodly number too who have a splendid chance to get on that team. Between Hampton, Howard, Lincoln, Union, and in fact all of the C.I. A. A. schools, and Wilberforce, Morehouse, and the other schools that have gone in for track athletics somebody is bound to win a place. Harvard has in Brown a star pitcher. Brown is a Negro. And he is great from reports. In the way of handing out a few facts we present this: Hussey and one of his teammates scored half of the team's total points. The school is Stuyvesant High of New York. The team's total was 125 points. Hussey lead with individual scoring with 25 points. He won all seven of his starts in the hundred yard race. LIONS INVADE THE SOUTH ON A BALL TOUR Lincoln University, Pa.—With a host, of veterans composing the squad, Coach U. S. Young, Jr. lead the "Lincoln Lions" from their den last Thursday and invaded the Southland for a two weeks jauit. The team has been buckled down to hard training for some time and a successful season is expected. The schedule to date follows: April 11th and 12th, State Normal, Elizabeth City, N. C.; April 14th, Union at Richmond, Va.; April 15, Legal Club at Roanoke, Va.; April 16, Knoxville College at Knoxville, Tenn.; April 17th, Fisk University at Nashville, Tenn.; April 18, Walden College at Nashville, Tenn.; April 19, Morehouse College at Atlanta, Ga.; April 21st, Atlanta University, Atlanta, Ga.; April 22, Morris Brown University, Atlanta, Ga.; May 17, Union at Lincoln University, Pa., May 21, Howard at Lincoln University, Pa., May 29 Howard at Washington, D. C. RACE LADS TO FEATURE IN LOCAL BOUT Russell "Kid" Wilson of Norfolk will meet Kid Jackson, of Canada, in eight round mcke Saturday, April 25, at St. Helena Barracks, Berkley. Wilson is the whole thing in the realm of fistiana in Norfolk. He is a youngster and tips the Fairbanks around 183. He is well built and has no superfluous avoid-dois. In his two years of fistic activities, he has taken part in 22 bouts and only lost 4 and none of those were: via knockout route. Wilson has fought in Paris, Canada, Brooklyn and Norfolk. His last fight was with Dimmie Quince on March 25. The bout went eight rounds to a decision and he came out on the big end of the encounter. Kid Wilson is managed by Daniel Woodard and trained by Kid Wright. He is also in the stable with Paul Fisher, who is a promising welter and serves as Wilson's surrying partner. Very much cannot he be about said Kid Jackson. He is not well known in these parts, but he is reputed to be there, with the goods. Jackson tips the scales at 185 pounds and is big and barley. Since he has been fighting, he has been in 42 bouts and has only lost 2. From this much of his record, he and Wilson ought to make feathers fly when they mix here April 25.

Much cannot be said about Norfolk fight fans. It has been so long since they have been privileged to witness a fistic encounter, but some one is trying to revive the old padded mit game here. It is true that the laws of the State of Virginia do not permit professional bouts, however the worlds war made it possible for lovers of the squared circle activities to journey to the various government reservations and see the good ones in action. in spite of the fact that they do not allow boxing in this State, some of the good athletes are determined to box. They have found a way around the chasm. Fight fans in Portsmouth have had quite a few fights, especially those connected with the American Legion. Portsmouth boasts of a number of good scrappers, but Norfolk only has a comparative few. Russel "Kid" Wilson and Joe Sampson are the only two luminaries. There are a few other lans that need no mentioning yet. Of course Kid Wilson has been active more than the others. He has participated in 21 bouts in Paris, Canada, Brooklyn and Norfolk, only losing four. Joe Sampson was doing his best when the Attucks Athletic Club was at its height. Since then Sampson has been idle more than he has been in action. St. Helena will not be such a long distance to go to see a bout, especially when the fans are interested. Distance means nothing to a real fan. This was proved when they used to have fights at the old Army Base. The colored section of the grandstand was always filled to capacity when an extra good bill was on. The Tidewater Tennis Club is an example of what real determination will do. The young men that comprises this club are undoubtless and the idea of giving up is clean out of the question. They did not wait for some one to come along and do something for them. They are doing it themselves and are not asking any aid. It would be all the same if they did. No one in Norfolk helps toward athletics. These fellows want to play tennis and play tennis they will. During the long years of Major League baseball, there are two big towns that have never seen a pennant. The St. Louis National and Americans are the only major league clubs that have never captured a ring, records reveal, and, unless a sensational upset occurs, they are conceded slight chances PROTECTED BY THE KELLEY N. P. SERVICE of breaking into the flag winning close this year. Twice the two American pendent orphans have crawled to within sounding distance of the pinacle in second place, but that's the best they have done. Back in 1876, when the National League was first organized, the Cardinals finished second, but since that time the St. Louis team has never been higher than third, finishing in that position in 1914, 1917, 1921 and 1922. INSIGHT ON THE VIRGINIA LEAGUE Dr. WILLEY A. JOHNSON BY WILLIAM S. MCCOLLINS Some funny things have happened since the organization of Virginia League base ball. Richmond has only one pennant in sixteen years. Rocky Mount succeeded Richmond in the league in 1915 and won the pennant, its first championship in nine years. Petersburg two fligs and Lynneburg, not now in the league, won its lone pennant in 1906. Norfolk has tucked two under its belt and came very near getting the third. Roanoke, no longer a representative, took the ring twice. Danville, now a member of the Piedmonters, won ones. Portsmouth won in 1920-21, but Wilson got a corner on the market since the triumph of the Trudickers. BUNTING DIVIDED During the eighteen years of Virginia League baseball, the hunting has been divided among ten different cities. Of course some of them are out of the circuit now. Some of the others that have been on the circuit are: Hopewell, Tarboro, N.C., and Suilfolk. Six previous winners now make up the 1924 organization. None of the ten cities have taken the pennant more than twice, but some have come very near annexing the third. After Petersburg took its second rag, the club won the first half of the split season, but no championship was decided. Disagreements, over-confidence, inability and politics have rendered members of the Virginia League helpless in breaking precedented records. These things have been especially true in the case of Richmond. The capital city team has bordered on championship honors more than the others. Three times the Colts were on the verge of first place, but one of the above mentioned things eclipsed their hopes. The closest the city ever came to winning the pennant and was denied, occurred last season, when what has been termed as a blunder by an official scorer cost the Colts the flag by the margin of one one percentage point. If this year is devoid of the jinx that has been camping on the trail of the Virginia Leaguers, one of the sextetts should break the unprecedented record. SHAW OPENS SEASON WITH A VICTORY Raleigh, N. C.-Friday afternoon Shaw opened her baseball season by handling the Mary Potter Memorial school a terrific walloping to the tune of 11 to 2. A large crowd of enthusiastic fans witnessed the game. It was played on Shaw's new Alumni Athletic field. "Blacky Bright" one of the best catchers in college baseball started the little wheel anrowing when he slammed the old pill for a homer and two doubles. "Rip Bland," a former Norcom High boy, held the Mary Potter boys at his mercy. His coolheadedness and deception curve largely decided the game. Captain Hicks will lead his men against the strong Bennett aggregation Saturday, April 5. WATCH YOUR HAT-EVER MONCH ITS ON YOUR HEAD. ALSHITH ASS. --- KOLLEGE KID.

College Baseball Season Is Under HAMPTON LOSES ST. PAUL BEATS TO ST.PAUL BY UNION TEAM BY SCORE OF 3-2 A 4 TO 3 SCORE April 11th—On a muddy field and before a great enthusiastic crowd, Hampton Institute's clever baseball outfit fell prey to St. Paul's baseball team in a game that was a toss up all the way by the score of 2 to 3. It was the second game of baseball for St. Paul to play with the Seasiders. The game proved a pitcher's battle between Hargrove, who was cool and effective, and Wallace, who duplicated his old tricks. Untimely errors gave the victors the margin. The clash was featured by a galaxy of exciting plays and opportune hitting and fielding. Hampton threatened in the 9th with a man on second and third. But with two out, Wallace broadcasted Gunn a quartet of outcurves which were the death knell to the great Hampton athlete, and which ended the thrilling strug- # ST. PAUL Ah R H Po.

After twelve years of defeat, the sterling Tiger nine came into its own this afternoon and emerged conqueror from the most scintillating game of baseball witnessed on Russell Field in many a day, bya 4-3 score. The teams played in brilliant form. Errors were few but costly. The memorable event was featured by a pitcher duel between Merritt Union's sphere artist, whose submarine delivery was "personally obnoxious," and Wallace, St. Paul idol mounder, whose effacious curves proved a sensation. The game was nerve-racking from "Lad" Wallace's first wind-up until the great "pinch-hitter" Barksdale swung desperately at Wallace's dazzling out-curve for the former's third strike and the final out.

Pope Franklin, Va.—The graded school baseball team here are expecting a good game on Easter Monday. The practice has been very scanty but at any rate they are going out to tackle any graded school team near by. Prof. Lógan, the principal, is doing his very best to keep his boys full of enthusiasm. All school teams who wish to book and to be booked should communicate with the manager, L. A. Pone.

It is in fact a hot-air heating furnace evolved into a beautiful piece of household furniture capable of heating comfortably the average size dwelling without the use of radiators or pipes. Placed in any desirable room in the home, it is claimed to give off sufficient heat to warm the entire building at one-third less fuel than is generally used in an ordinary coal heater. Music was furnished by St. Joseph's High School Band and the local chapter of the American Federation of Musicians on alternate nights. The concerts were especially enjoyable.

"I am confident of completing the trip in thirty days," heaiohlriddle MAKES RECORD IN BOSTON The noted flier has just completed exhibitions in Boston, Mass., where he received the ovation of the populace and the commendation of the governor of the state. He is at present intensely interested in breaking down the barriers in government air service existing against Negro fliers. To this end he will conduct lectures all over the country, hoping to explain the workings of an airplane to an extent that will create interest among colored people in this lucrative profession. After his world flight he proposes to establish a school to teach ambitious race fliers the science of handling the lighter than air machines. His whole scheme of world flight and the construction of the specially designed plane is being financed by himself with the aid of public donations.

St. Joseph's Church Fosters Splendid Community Center For Colored People Here BY C. L. WILLIAMS In spite of every day's manifestation of human strife, jealousy, distrust and man's general inhumanity to man there flows beneath the surface a stream of human devotion. Not often do its spring-break thru to the top and attract public interest, nevertheless it moves on daily motivated by the passions concerned in the cause of brotherly love. "Am I my brother's keeper?" is the question these people have asked and answered for themselves. There are many examples of consecrated workers in every community, but this article has to do with a particular institution, its leader and co-workers in Norfolk engaged in a work which should command itself to every citizen, rich or poor, who accepts the Christian religion, or who at least, emulates in the belf that the strong should succer the weak. That institution is St. Joseph's Catholic Church; its head, Father Vincent D. Warren and his assistants, nine Franciscan Sisters and five lay teachers. One of the prominent characteristics of the Catholic Church that higwidstood the age of seething racial intolerance is its persistent retreat to recognize any inseparable cleavage between races of men and between races of men and their one Creator. And probably there is no other place where this church characteristic chimes more brilliantly than in this city where 790 colored boys and girls, young men and young women are under the almost daily surveillance, training and teaching of Father Vincent D. Warren and his staff. Father Warren is pastor of St Joseph's Catholic Church, official head of St Joseph's Academy, and is giving Norfolk the second-colored community center without costing the city a single penny. He is attempting to educate 775 colored children at a cost to their parents a penny a day-25 cents a month. But even if any parents is too penitent to contribute of this note towards the education of their child, the hours of St Joseph's Academy will not close against it; you will Father Warren's welcoming smile vans. Among thousands of coloured people he minutes daily. Into the homes of the distressed, the sick the poor he goes, comforting, cheering and advising them. Even among those more favorably situated he goes and quiets what might sometimes become a domestic storm. His counsel is sought and always welcomed by hundreds of Catholics and non-catholics. Greatest Percentage Non-Catholies There are 775 pupils enrolled in St. Joseph's school and of this number 625 are non-Catholics, many parents of other religious faiths preferring to send their children there to be under the watchful care of the Franciscan Sisters. Even the children of these parents are accepted, money or no money.

Each of the lay teachers is paid a salary, when a matter of fact the tuition received from student would secure pay the salary on half of them. Many of these lay teachers hold degrees and all of their process certificates. There is nothing from the revenues for maintenance of the Franconian Sister a band of St. John women who are devoting their lives to the education of Negroes. The living range from kindergarten to 12th year high and are taught in plain, but spotlessly clean rooms, an old residence on Brewer street, the Social Hall built during the war, and the main building in which the church is located being used to meet the ever increasing demands upon Father Warren's parish. St. Joseph's school was established in 1889 with three Franciscan Sisters and a visiting priest from Richmond. At present there are eighteen teachers and one priest. Father Warren came to St. Joseph's in 1896 and since that time the school enrollment and church membership has constantly increased with a corresponding increase in operating expenses. Father Warren has devised many creditable methods of increasing the revenue, and has taken --- over property on Brewer street to relieve congestion, but the income has always been insufficient. "Affectionally called "Father". A large portion of the general public is ignorant of the wonderful work of Father Warren in behalf of the community, but there are few brown-colored people in this city who are not at least familiar with the man and his influence for good, his devotion to the cause to which his life is dedicated. "Father" is the official name of Catholic clergymen, but it is addressed to Father Warren with an affection having a deeper significance than merely an official title, the Recently he has faced the necessity of building a new Social Hall and with the soaring cost of operating expenses the need for funds to continue and expand the work of the school has become pressing. A voluntary effort is being made by coeficient white business and professional men to raise 56,000 the week before and after Easter to be utilized in lifting the right which has resulted from the heavy demands upon the school. It is believed that this worthy effort will especially appeal to the colored citizens and that they will contribute liberally to this fund. Anyone desiring to donate to this consciented work can do so by communicating directly with Father Warren and it is believed that many will give evidence of their feeling of the Easter spirit by mailing checks for St. Joseph's school. Last year Father Warren conceived the idea of organizing a high school band. In Maren the organization began practice under the direction of Dr. Josiah Bailey and now it has thru a most credible showing attracted hundreds of admirers. The members of the band purchased their own uniforms You Don't Need The Cash!

Glibly I made him believe that I had kept her under surveillance for the purpose of ferreting out the hiding place of the mysterious escort. That brought him up standing. I thought at first he was going to strike me. I I would strike a man if he told me he had been spying upon my wife, but he did not. Instead, he gripped me by both shoulders, with those powerful fingers of his and demanded to know if I had succeeded in my undertaking. Assuming a sort of fawning attitude, such as I supposed pigeons use, I described to him the imaginary man-hunt, ending up with the dramatic declaration that I had trailed Mrs. Essay to a little house in a surburban village, named Hilltown, and that I had seen a man admit her into that house. To make it as strong as possible (Carolina 'bogged me to exeute him) I went on to state that I inquired about the neighborhood and discovered that that man had occupied that house, for several months, and that that woman (or some woman) had paid him visits it regular intervals almost ever since he had lived there. So long as I live I will never again dip my fingers into another man's affairs if it concerns woman, I cannot accurately describe the affect my story had on Essex. At first I fancied he was going to have a stroke of apoplexy. I had never seen him look so fiendish before. But he calmed down finally and began to talk in rational tones. He did not want to injure the man. He did not want to injure Carolin'. All he wanted to do was to see this man who could rob him of a woman without any trouble. He wanted to see what he looked like.

Had she thrown a little light on this myss designs escort of hers, but she dropped a few hints having to do with something that had occurred in her birthday days. I would have been better satisfied. But she was as dumb as a clan on those things. She refused to give out any information whatsoever. But in the end I promised to help her. Why I promised, I do not know, but I did. Probably it was the old human craving for excitement. Probably it was the old human preenchant for posing in dark closets. Perhaps it was because she was pretty and in trouble. Perhaps it was because of my firm friendship for her husband. At any rate, I pledged my word that I would help, and I add here that she got with gladness. It is one thing to sympathize with a friend when he is telling of his wife's unfaithfulness of his own free will and quite another to assume the role of censor yourself. At no time during that period had I come out openly and panned Carlin' to George. I wisely decided to let him take the lead in that. Of course, I would agree with him on certain things and extend my sympathy, but I guided myself carefully in that matter. I think he appreciated me for this. Least慰. I found that our friendship grew firmer and firmer following the days of his troubles. So you can imagine about how I felt when I forced myself to go to him and tell him that I had beer, upon his wife during his absence in Chicago. This lie was part of Carol's plan. He did dare up at the news as I thought he would, but asked me, in a reas- DURANO DURANO IS THE MAIN MATERIAL FOR THE MAIN MATERIAL FOR THE MAIN MATERIAL DURANO PALMER SKIN MATERIAL FOR THE MAIN MATERIAL don't take the wrong package Norfolk Journal and Guide was about him so fascinating that a level-headed woman like Carolin' should stain her soul for him. As for Carolin' he did not want to see her again. He was through with her. All he wanted was to see this man. He talked along like that for some time, and then he finally asked me if I would tell him where this house was. I knew the address—Carolin' had given it to me—but it was not her plan to give him the address. I was to guide him there. Why it was necessary that I should be present I do not know, but that was her plan. So I did not give him the street and number, I pretended to describe the location, to deceive him into believing that I had been there, but after a jumbed treatise on directions and landmarks, I admitted that it was impossible for me to give him the exact location, but that I could find it for him if he wanted me to do so. He hesitated at this point, but after a little, decided that it wouldn't be a bad plan to accept me as guide. That much over, we set about arranging the time for our little cleverness in forcing him to agree to the date and hour set by Carolin'. He wanted to make the trip by daylight. But a deal of swift talking soon won him over, and the whole thing was settled. At a quarter past 9 o'clock of a Thursday evening I turned the car into a certain murky little side street in the suburban village of Hiltown, drew up close to the curbing and came to a stop. "This is the street," I whispered to Essex, who sat beside me. "The house is in the next square. It's best to park here, isn't it?" "I suppose so," he grunted. It was the first words he had spoken during the six miles ride. He was like a man going to his doom. We left the car at that spot and proceeded on foot to our destination. The street was a miserable little thoroughfare, unpaved, uncared for, poorly illuminated, and cluttered with ancient cottages that resembled shacks. These shacks were set close together in meagre yards, giving the neighborhood a look of congestion. Lights were burning in the majority of these makeshift dwellings. Doors and windows were open to admit pure, cooling air, as the month was August. At some of the cottages, men, women, and children sat in the doorways or hung out windows. The scene rather depressed George. His comments were bitter. The next block was not quite so congested. There was no house that stood apart from the others grandly, a two-story, unpainted frame. It stood in the center of a commodious yard. Lilacs trees, a few rosebushes, and a map or so, and a tree that I took to be a beechwood, beautified the setting. The yard, or lawn, was thickly covered with long, course grass, a rank growth of vegetation that clearly indicated that the tenants had made no effort to control its cultivation. Even the brick walk that led from the street to the rotting front porch was partly grass covered. Tributary walks, circling either side of the house, led to the rear. It was a lonely-looking place.

MONTGOMERY---A RACE STATESMAN AND BUILDER that it was the largest house in the near vicinity enhanced its lonesomeness, together with the fact that it was shrouded in darkness, save for an indistinct blur of light that barely penetrated the drawn shade in one of the lower rooms. As we neared the dwelling, I slowed my pace, informing my companion that we had reached our destination. He stopped and looked at the house quizzically. I could tell by his attitude that he was not pleased with its outward appearance. I also suspected that his heart had gone out of the job. You see. George was not a cold-blooded person. He was determined and stubborn in many ways, but he wasn't one of these vicious sort of chaps who believe in going to any extremes to circumvent an enemy. He had cause enough the world knows, to hate the man who had destroyed his home, but I was positive, by this time, that he was not honing after that man's blood. He was anxious to learn the sneaks identity but it was my opinion that he had come to the final conclusion that it would be only a waste of --- By Dean Kelly Miller Isaiah T. Montgomery, the founder of Mound Bayon, Mississippi, is dead. He represented the best developed product of slavery under its mild, patriarchal form. His father before him was a good and faithful servant in the household of Joe Davis, the brother of Jefferson Davis, President of the Southern Confederacy. The older Montgomery was intelligent, faithful and devoted to the welfare of his owner who intrusted him with the overseer-ship of his large estate, Isaiah T. Montgomery grew up in this congenial and compliant environment. He knew nothing of the hardship and cruel use of slavery. At an early age he was taught the use of the letters and assigned to clerical task in the household. The overthrow of slavery did not effect any violent change of relationship between the master and the man. The elder Montgomery and his son engaged to buy the plantations of Joe and Jefferson Davis for the magnificent sum of three hundred thousand dollars. It was the stipulated request of the owners, as it was the sinecure purpose of the purchasers to hold the former slaves together under the nevolent and kindly supervision to which they had been accustomed. The Montgomeries failed in their ambitious undertaking when the inflated prices of the recent was settled down to a normal basis. The estate was returned to the former owners of the satisfaction and honor of all concerned. Isaiah T. Montgomery still adhered to the purpose of serving his race through the agency of an agricultural colony. In the migration movement of the late seventies, we find him planting a Negro colony at Nicodemus, Kansas, which remains in a goodly state of prosperity unto the present day. These early attempts at colonization clearly indicated the idea to which he devoted his life. In the early ninety, Mr. Montgomery secured from one of the railroad companies the control of a tract of some thirty thousand acres of land in the rich Mississippi bottoms. From that time to the day of his death he devoted every ounce of his energy and enthusiasm to the construction of his great undertaking. A Model Town The success of the Mound Bayon enterprises is well known and widely heralded. With one possible exception, it is the largest and most successful attempt of the Negro race to build up, in this country, an independent community. There has sprung up out of the wilderness a town of some two thousand inhabitants, surrounded by a Negro population of five or six thousand people who contribute to and device from this center their industrial, social and communal life. The town itself is modeled after the pattern of thousands of like-sized communities scattered throughout the South, and for that matter, throughout the nation. It is exceptional only in that it was planned, and is managed and managed throughout by Negroes. The water works, electric lights and like-public utilities are operated with the smoothness and regularity that one is accustomed to find in places of similar size under white control. The Negro depot master and telegraph operator A NORFOLK, VA. 644 NICHOLSON STREET time and tears and regret to revenge himself upon the lover of his faithless wife. What is the use in struggling if there is no reward to be gained? He had lost Carolin'. All the bodily and mental harm he could inflict upon the thief would not give her love back to him. True, he could arrange matters so that he and she would not be happy together, but in doing so he (George) would have to damage his own soul. Has a man the right to demand another man's life for the sake of a worthless woman? Does the unwritten law hold good when a Delilah forms the apex of the human triangle? Should a man slay for the sake of a guilty wife—a mate who has forfeited every right to protection and honor? I think at that moment that George's sole answer to these questions would have been "NO." I was certain that whatever surprise Carolin' had in store for us, a surprise so important and vital that she had used this method to lure her husband to this house, would fail to have the desired effect. (To be continued next week) strikes one as old only because he is not accustomed to railroad officials of that color. The Post Office is indeed a busy place and its big volume of business is as well conducted as other offices of its size and grade. The public school building is the pride of the town. This structure costing upward of one hundred thousand dollars, is as well appointed and arranged for appropriate instruction as any public school building anywhere in the country. It can only be surpassed in size and architectural display but not in the essential conveniences of a school building. This school stands for the educational center of the surrounding agricultural community. One is profoundly interested in the stores and business enterprise of Mound Bayou. The volume of business is of sufficient size to meet all requirements of the Negro community of six thousand souls. The local government is entirely in the hands of Negro officials. The order and good behavior is not surpassed by any town of its size in the state. Crime and disorder are so unusual as to be practically unknown. The county sheriff and state officers of the law give themselves little concern about Mound Bayon. Good Race Relations Good will and harmony between the races are everywhere in evidence. The little community lives a satisfied life that can hardly be duplicated in the South, or for that matter, in the country. The spirit of Isaiah T. Montgomery permeates the whole place. He retains the good will and friendly relationship with the leading whites of the state which he acquired while in the household of his former master. There is nothing in the bounds of their received and accepted code that they would not do for him. Be it said to his ever-loving credit that he has never abused his helpful approach for his own ends or to the detriment of his race; but has always insisted upon a square deal for his people. Mr. Montgomery was the only Negro member of the Constitution Convention of Mississippi which revised the constitution with a view to restricting the franchise. His address to the white people of the state to enforce fairly whatever restrictions they might deemed to place upon the ballot and that they be applied to white and black. He yielded to the policy of limited franchise but insisted upon equal enforcement. His general complaint against contact with the aristocratic class of his day and generation rendered him too trustful of the less liberal element that was then clutching for political power. Frederick Danglass and the reigning Negro politicians of his day demonounced as being a traitor to his race. This is a hard term which we are to prone to use against those with whom we are in temporary disagreement. But Mr. Montgomery lived long enough to live all this down. All are now willing to concede that he did at the time what he thought for his race. The development of events fails to reveal that any different attitude would have yielded better results. Agricultural settlement, in dense intelligent and energetic race leadership constitutes the one plan of solution of the race problem in the South that seems to offer the brightest hope. The Negro is best off in the large city or in the open country. In the small town, ranging from five hundred to three thousand, he is almost wholly without function. The poor whites monopolize all of the profitable lines of employment. There are few who are able to employ Negro household servants. The remnants of the race which hang on, merely loiter around the outer edge of things without any established function or fixed place in the life of the community. They are overshadowed by the dominating whites without a sufficient number of their own color to form a worthwhile or satisfying life. One has only to use his eyes as the train whirls through hundreds of such communities to be convinced as to the soundness of this conviction. There are innumerable Negro settlements in the back parts of such towns and villages, often separated from them by a wide margin. But for the most part they are without leadership or enterprise, and depend wholly upon white propriet (Contjuned On Page 10) REVIEW and COMMENT Glimpsed Along the Way By William Britton Opportunities of Today and Yesterday To hear old-timers converse of how things used to be, and to reflect on the many changes that have come about in the nature of things even in one's own lifetime very frequently force the question, subconsciously of course, are there left any opportunities for the younger generation? Or are the chances to become wealthy or educated or successful in any line of human effort as liberal today as they were, say; fifteen, twenty or thirty years back? Most of us in this generation can remember when schools and colleges opened wide their doors to the poor student. Ambition, a studious mind and an honest face were the paramount requisites for the young man desiring to rub his head against college walls. Money was welcomed, it is true, but the lack of it was seldom a barrier against obtaining a degree. It was no uncommon thing for educated men to boast of having worked their way thru their highest institutions of learning. But today we find in the first pages of all college catalogues the price of tuition and quite often the admonition to "come prepared to finance your way." Only a very few students in this day are able to make the hill by working their way over. In fact, this class of seekers after education is little welcomed by the modern institutions. Property Values Turning from educational opportunities we cast a gloomy aspect on the chances of the poor to secure wealth and property in the modern world. Who has not heard the expression in reference to some valuable city block, "twenty years ago that land could have been bought for a song?" And at once we almost wished we had been grown-ups twenty years ago. Again some one will point out a high-priced farm and immediately call our attention to the fact that a quarter of a century back that land sold for less than ten dollars an The Virginia Annual Conference of the A. M. E. Church which held it session for three days in E.A. M. E. manuel Church CONFERENCE Portsmouth, fast WAS THE week was a most BIG THING interesting local event. There were crowds, crowds every night. I was over Friday night and after pushing my way into the church finally secured standing room upon the courtesy of an usher. I was standing almost directly in front of a lady who was comfortably seated. This day decided to leave the building for a short while and politely asked me to sit in her seat so as to keep it occupied until her return. I gladly consented, but afterward regretted that I did. More people came in and of course moved right in the comfortable and advantageous standing position that I had temporarily relinquished. Seeing my predicament I based my hopes on the woman whom I was favoring not returning. But she did return and very quickly, at that, I gave her the seat, she thanked me. And there I was with neither sitting or good standing room. The lady seemed not at all disturbed over my predicament. Quite inconvenient sometimes to be polite, altho we always have to be. Had the honor Monday of escorting Lieutenant Habert Julian, the notelot race aviator thru the city. VISITOR IN On our walk we took in a all of down-town and a PROMINENT VISITOR IN TOWN good deal of the resident section. The Lieutenant attracted considerable attention on Granby street. Pedestrians stopped and remarked, "the first time I have ever seen a colored liner." The utmost courtesy was shown him everywhere we went, with one exception. On board the Merchants and Miners ship we were served lunch in the main dining room and not a semblance of discrimination was in evidence. Of course, I do not know if this is a general rule of the company or simply a special deference shown our party. Our waiter, Mr. Ralph Wormley, of Boston, was his name I learned, was very courteous. His service was excellent and he seemed to take a special pride in serving a party composed of members of his own race group. It is a pleasure to mention this fact, because all too the Negro public gets scant consideration from Negro servitors in public places and conveyances. Colored citizens who had the opportunity of shaking hands with Lieutenant Julian openly expressed their pleasure of having the honor. Not a business house or office we visited was too busy for its members to stop and greet him with a genuine smile and a sincere hand shake. It is a pleasure to ecort prominent visitors around and introduce them when the other fellow so-operates so nicely. A PUZZLING One thing that SITUATION puzzles me and sets heavily on my mind when ever I have to cross the Norfolk-Portsmouth ferry is how did it happen that the fellow who designed those waiting rooms and approaches to Features - Virginia and North Carolina News - Editorials Now this sort of illogical reasoning is an ever present danger that we who are still hustling to climb the ladder have to guard ourselves against. Certainly, property was cheap and hundreds of young men entered college without a dime a quarter of a century ago. But the price of labor was also much cheaper than it is now and those who purchased property had no royal road to paying for it. Nor was there as much free education, correspondence schools, schools for adults and working people as there are today. There never will come a time when all opportunities for human betterment are monopolized, but there always has been and always will be the problem of uncovering them and recognizing them when they are uncovered. Life resolves itself into a will to do or die that must be asserted today and every day. Grandfather's farm may have sold cheap, but it didn't come cheap to him. It bought it at the price of untiring effort. Yes, opportunities are as multitudinous today as they ever were, and maybe, more so. It may require more money and more ability to take advantage of them, but the opportunity to acquire both of these is even greater than it ever was. So let those whom the world may have considered failures, or even those who have lost self-confidence pull off their coats and work, work unceasingly; think, think and study every waking hour. Wealth nor great education may not crown their efforts in spite of it all, but a life of service, which in itself is success, will have been spent, and the chances to mass at least a small portion of material wealth will increase as the days go by. d Along the Mothers Give the children WRITE after every meal A prominent physician "It is surprising how free the teeth can be kept by after each meal."

Even with the city of Norfolk we are told that not so many years ago all of west City Hall avenue was a creek and when the city proposed to assess owners of abutting property to pay for filling in the creek many owners sought to disown their land in order to escape paying their proportionate share of the cost of the contemplated improvements. And today property that people were willing to give away twenty years back is worth several hundred dollars a front foot. Twenty-five years ago a young man with a few hundred dollars could buy several lots in Huntersville, an acre in Lindenwood and a few thousands would take a pretentious residence in the densest section of the city. We know what it takes to purchase property in these sections at present. When these stories are poured into our cars we of this day and time often actually draw the conclusion that all of the best opportunities passed while we were yet in our infancy, or before we were born. Take a stroll over any modern city in company with an old-timer and invariably when he points out valuable property and names the owner he quickly adds, "but he or his father acquired it when things were cheap." Even if our neighbor happens to own his own home and we are paying rent for ours, we are apt to excuse our lack of foresight on the thought always nurtured in our minds, "well, he was lucky, he got that cheap, things are not the same in this day." Blame Prohibition And there is a certain class of people who even go to the extent of blaming everything on prohibition. "O, money was free, when liquor was here," is their dry comment. "One could earn good money in those days," they will add mournfully. Now if we listen to all these references to the good times of the past and what some would have us to believe are the sad times of the present and allow them to sink in, we are apt to conclude that we were born just a few years too late to amount to the steamers fixed it so that nine times out of every ten when a boat docks colored passengers are compelled to jump for their lives to beat the automobiles and other vehicles across the passage way? Of course they don't have to do this if they have plenty of time to wait, but if they are in a hurry they must play hide and seek among the vehicles to make time. And the The Flavor Lests anything or to acquire anything. Carrying this same line of reasoning further we will feel that all the people who lived in those pictured good times and are still within the shadow of poverty were simply sluggards and have no excuse for their present condition. If we had lived in that time and been a grown-up we will would now be well, we will say to ourselves. boat so lands that the white passengers usually have a straight way off to the sidewalks.

Pierce Assails Stand Of Suffolk Daily News. Considerable interest has been aroused in Suffolk and surrounding communities among both white and colored people over the discussion recently carried on between the editor of the Suffolk News, a daily paper, and Dr. J. W. Pierce, a colored physician of that city, in the columns of the News regarding the holding of public office by colored men. Some weeks ago there appeared an editorial in the Suffolk News under the caption "Keeping the South Solid," in which the editor apparently took the position, somewhat veiled, in opposition to Negroes holding any public office either elective or appointive in the South, in a letter addressed to the paper "The Columns under 'The Forum' Dr. Pritchard joined issue with the editor on the question and evidenced a serious doubt as to his logic on this particular matter. DR. PIERCE'S LETTER IN PART DR. PIERCE'S LETTER IN PART "I am unable to appreciate the logic in your conclusion relative to appointment of colored men to public offices. I am a southern man, and I take it for granted that you are also. I believe, or I want to believe that you are fair enough to permit the other side of a question to be heard on this score. The appointment of Cohen as collector of customs at New Orleans was an act of justice based upon merit and service rendered. It is purile to conclude that that act spells domination. The word domination has no place in a democracy by white men, black men, grizzle or grey. A democracy is that ideal form of government in which all just, and true laws are derived from the consent of the governed. It is not the purpose nor desire of colored men to dominate, but to serve the government in keeping with their capacity for service in national, state and local affairs. No true servant would regard his effort as domination. Every time the government crumbles, that word domination creeps out for the sole purpose of prejudicing his initiative and curtailing his self-expression in both civic and political matters. CITIZENS OF A REPUBLIC "You concede to the colored man citizenship; but you will rob him of his suffrage. The cal warpage of his suffrage. You say the white republicans of the south have no antipathy to the Negro; yet then tricks of frony they take from him his suffrage, the real weapon of defense that all true Americans will without suffrage is no citizen at all in a republican form of government where taxation is based upon representation, and your concessions to citizenship are meaningless, and fail to appeal to reason. "I fear sir, that your prophecy will fail as to the south ever tolerating colored men in official capacities. You and I may not be living to see it, but I believe that when prejudices are removed, and reason takes the place in the public relations throughout the south, men who are capable irrespective of color will hold offices big or little according to fitness. "Since you claim your race to be superior why fear an inferior one if what you say is true. No superior man fears an inferior man until he becomes equal to or surpasses him. To be sure this is not your fear. Then why muzzle the ox that grinds out the corn; why not he fair and give that colored man what he carms; why smother him with prejudices because he strives to rise in the field of his endeavors; don't fear domination. We want what we make. We want you to have what you make. 'This is fair—this is honest.' "Dr. J. W. Pierce, bases his argument for the holding of office by members of his race purely upon the right of citizenship which he would have us believe is impossible without suffrage. He forgets that suffrage is not a right but a privilege granted by society or wielded as society believes is best for it. The battle is a sort of fishish battle the Nerra and no war under the sun before they ever had it thrust upon them to the one to which Dr. Pierce belongs. While the Anglo-Saxon went through years of bitter struggle to secure it, tutored at the knees of the greatest democrats the world has ever known, murured in the cradle of freedom, it was not until it built for itself a home in a new world that the privilege filtered through to the masses. It came to them thereby when they were fit for it and were to a limited degree capable of using it to their advantage and the advantage "That citizen dominates who holds office and wields authority; be he black or white. If this were a Negro nation, ninety millions of Negroes to ten millions of whites, the conditions of the races would be the reversed. Negroes would and should dominate. "The main cause of friction between the races in the south has been political. The south will not accept the Negro officeholder and considers his appointment an affront. The same conditions prevail in the north in certain localities. It is a perfectly natural thing. The barrier was raised between the races by the Creator and it cannot he broken down politically or socially without great harm. The attempt to do it always results in injury to the numerically weak. It behooves the leaders of the Negro to face the facts as they exist and to teach their followers the futility of breaking down natural laws. There is room a-plenty for whites and blacks in the south, America. Each has his niche in there his field in which to strive, overcome, beBuilder will succeed through attempts to destroy barriers erected by an all-wise Creator for the preservation of their integrity. "It were better for the black man to serve in a mental capacity than to suffer for the momentary gratification or attainment of impossible things. Right or wrong, Cohen's appointment will make it harder for the individual Negro and it will make the white man more determined than ever to keep the Negro out of office and out of politics. The white man in the south will have to change his character before he will ever admit that the holding of office by Negroes in nearly all-white communities is good for either race."

C., April 9- There is a growing demand for Negro lawyers throughout the United States and especially the sections where large numbers of Colored People are residing, according to information received in the office of the Secretary of the School of Law of Howard University. This demand, it is said, is an outgrowth of the great migration movement which has been in the foremost few years. To meet this increasing need for Negro lawyers the Howard University School of Law found it necessary some time ago to enlarge its facilities for training students for the profession of law. In 1922 the sum of approximately $20,000 was spent on improvements to its building on Fifth Street. These improvements have made it possible to accommodate as many as 132 students. Recently an announcement was sent out by the Secretary of the School of Law calling attention to the need for the Howard University School of Law has qualified for a place among the standard law schools of the world and also calling attention to the fact that beginning October 1st, 1924, admission requirements will include two years of standard college work.

Sampson Brooks In Stirring Address. (Continued from Page One) Largest building on the continent for diffusing light and learning to the heatens. This building, 150 feet long cost $75,000. Not one penny did the Foreign Mission Department of his church have to contribute to its erection and today it is paid for. Most of the lumber used in its construction had to be carried by the soldiers of the natives. Every barrel of sand used had to be carried two miles and transported in the same manner as the lumber. Every dollar of the cost was solicited by Bishop Brooks personally from philanthropically inclined people of the civilized world, mostly Americans. There is probably one exception to the above assertion in that the Bishop himself had to build the carer stone of the building was laid the natives laid down as a donation $110,000, in spite of the fact that the daily wage for a man in that country is 25 cents and a pound of rice. CLOTHES MUST BE FURNISHED Every child brought to the school has to be clothed, fed and taught the most elementary precepts of civilization. Eight students a day. Disney Brooks said, each student American can afford $1.00 he is making it possible for a dozen heathen warriors to have food utilized by civilized people for at least a day. A n idea of the monumental work performed by Bishop Brooks in building this school and paying for it in such a brief time may be gained from a reflection on what a struggle the average pastor in rich and enlightened America, who enjoys the presence of a large congregation and good collection fifty-two Sundays in the year, has to lift from his church a debt of this magnitude. Yet, this marvelous man, in less than four years built and paid for a $75,000 school in a land 6,000 miles from the duly ginger of the American eagle. WAS WELL. But Bishop Sanseon Brooks was well prepared for a great work he was elected to the bishopric and assigned to the Foreign field. He had pastored for twenty-five years, mostly in the West, having been transferred from Witchitcha, Kansas, to the Baltimore Conference, a short while before beginning his pastorate at the M. E. Church in the city. It was only did yeoman work which immediately brought to the fore the greatness of the man. When he took charge at Bethel there was an indebtness of $100,000 against the church property. The A. M. E. connection had just about concluded that Bethel presented a hopeless case. But Bethel years after pastored Brooks set to the mortgage converted into ashes. In this connection he performed a feat that it is not believed has since been equalled. In a single night he with his congregation and church officers raised $33,000. His made in Baltimore and the M. E. Church. On that night the city hall clock which had not deviated from her course in a quarter of a century was made to strike 33 times on order of city officials to celebrate the memorable event—Bethel church raising $33,000 in a single night. This rally is said to have lasted from early in the venery until seven o'clock the following day. Bethel Church as pastor Simpson Brooks stepped into the bishopric. The usual question is how does Sampson Brooks succeed in accomplishing the unprecedented? Conversation, will supply the answer. Life is strong of physique. Statusque in build, venerable in appearance, yet youthful and agile, from the native stock and possesses an indomitable will and irritable personality. He is happiest performing the seemingly impossible. Difficulties to him are unprecedented. Bishop Brooks has traveled the world over, having crossed the Atlantic a score of times. Sweden, Asia, Germany, Austria, London, Paris and most of the on-road work are familiar to him. A graduate of the University of Africa he served. Before he toured to Africa to begin his work he toured the eastern section of the United States and collected considerable funds to begin his plans with. Returning after two years on his work in the Continent he toured to Africa and then returned to him, that Bishop Brooks returned to Africa with two suit cases bulging with money. Every dollar he solicits is accounted for to the General Conference with the name of the churches donating, it is said. Bishop Brooks says he hopes to return to Africa after attending the General Conference to be held in Africa. He is the first A. M. E. Bishop to have a home in Liberia. This presented to him by Mrs. Noza F. Taylor, who had recently returned from a trip to the continent a short while before her death last year. Church donated a large sum to the African cause Sunday night, and Emanuel Church presented a larger sum Thursday night. PANTEGO Panteng, N. C.—Rev.

Once my hair was anything but long and silky soft as it is now, and my complexion was sallow, and there were often unsightly pimples on my face. One day I heard of Exelento Quinine Powder for the hair and purchased a jar. Almost immediately it stopped all dandruff, made my hair grow long, soft and fine, and gave it a delightful sheen. Because of the perfectly wonderful results I obtained from Exelento Quinine Pomade, I purchased a jar of it to use on skin Boundaries. It changed my sallow complexion to a clear, lovely skin, glowing with health. For pimples and other skin blemishes, it has no equal. If I am as beautiful as people say, it is all due to Exelento preparations.

SUNDAY, APRIL 20TH, 1924 "THE RISEN CHRIST" Mark 16:1-15. Golden Text - But now hath hars been raised from the dead, the first fruits of them that are Beg. 1 - Cor. 15:20. The Women Early at the Sepulchre of Jesus is the oldest of man's her teaching seems wonderful than in the coming of spring. Over her face in the days of winter there has been spread the veil of death. Under it the flowers have withered and trees have been stripped and the birds have ceased to sing among the branches. coming of spring. Over her face in the days of winter there has been spread the veil of death. Udert it the flowers have withered and trees have been stripped and the birds have ceased to sing among the branches. but we know all the while the veil of death has only been covering the birth of a new fuller life. In the days of spring and the Spirit of God, the God of life, and disclosing everywhere the first beauties of the new world, to come, the lark is singing its hound song. The great master Da tells us that the marble of Nature has been made vain by the resurrection of its cord and death revealed as the pathway to fuller and more glorious life. - Cosmo Gordon Lang, in "Diction of Jesus." These faithful women came early in the faithful at the dawn of Sunday, they came there to perform an inordinate act to anoint the holy body of Jesus with sweet spices. It was customary among the low as a mark of honor to the deceased after washing the corpse to mount it with certain perfumes," boott. The stone at the door of the seabird gave these sorrowing women not a little concern. "Who shall away the stone for us. There is an Indian legend which says that a traveler one had his key blocked by what looked like a snake, jumppart of thorns, however, he advanced upon: the thorn hedged turned up to mist. The great stones we dread often find have been rolled away. Trust your love rather than fears. Courage is always the most wisdom." - J. D. Jones. The Angel's Message of Assurance to the Women vs. 5.8 SALL the Gospels unite in representing angelic appearance at the description, though they differ in their description. Mark and Luke describe the persons as 'men' according to the appearance; Matthew and John as angels, according to the talk. That there were two angels in clear from John's more minute account. — (John 20: 12). Denied by Loke (21: 4); Matthew and Mark mention only one angel, angels because one was prominent in the speaker."—Abbott. This women entered the sepulchre and are assured by the angel Jesus is no longer in the tomb, his risen; come and see the angel. He would have them satisfy themselves as to the fact by looking at the place themselves. Though there had been no human witness of the Lord's rising from the dead, here were evidence all around. The there was empty; the body was wase"—New Cent, Bible. The first knowledge that the world received of the resurrection of Christ was given to women—faithful and loyal women. The heavenly messenger beheld them go and tell the Lord's disciples and Peter that, "That He goeth before into Gallilee, there shall see Him." vs. 7. The good news about Christ is always to be shared. "Go thy way, all that is the command still laid upon us Life is not all nature it is severe ministry. It is blessed enjoyment, it is blessed spring. When we have heard the news about Christ, we must lighthearted go our way and tell stories.

Because I remember that the body of a patriot rests there. I stand by the slab marking Livingstone's grave in Westminster Abbey. Why the beating heart and the moistist skin? I remember that here lies as proof dust as was ever organized in humility. And so it is with the graves. And so mother, sister, brother, husband, wife, friend, throughout the wide world. Their entombed dust hallows the place of their entombment. We prize it for what it contains. But one tomb has imperishable glory because of its emptiness. It the tomb visited by the Easter Marys. His disdainty believes the empty tomb be a miraculous act of the Almighty God. -Dr. F. F. Shannon, in the *The New Personality.* Proof (1) Jesus Christ seen by Mary Magdalene; proof (2) appeared to the two disciples as they journeyed on the way to Emaus; proof (3) showed himself alive to the eleven as they sat at meat; proof (4) the great commission. Enaus is Easter; not because Jesus rose long ago, but because he still lives, and because there are among us those who know that he lives—Youth Companion. BRIGGSOGRAMS Loyalty to Christ—Women 60% and men 35%. Every Christian knows that Jesus has risen. He has risen in his heart. The key stone of Christianity is the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The resurrection of Christ makes the resurrection of every believer an absolute certainty. If Christ hath not been raised, then our preaching vain, our faith also is vain. I Cor. 15: 14. SORRY. ST.

Watch word "Peace" DEAN BRIGGS' TALKS ON THE RELIGIOUS LIFE The Art of Building Character "Know ye not that ye are the Temple of God 1 Cor 6:15 The Nature of Character Reputation is what people think we are; character is what we know we are. Character dwells in the man; reputation lives abroad. Dying, Horace Greely exclaimed: Fame is a vapor, popularity an accident, riches takes wings; those who cheer today will curse tomorrow, only one thing endures, character! Character is a good name; it is more precious than fine gold; more lasting than marble of granite. "Life's task is the making of manhood. Character has been defined as the joint product of nature and nature. Nature gives the raw material, character is the carved stone. Character is the product of daily, hourly thoughts; daily forgiveness, unselfishness, kindness, symphatics, charities, sacrifices for the good of others, struggles against temptation, suspending under trial. In these, like the blending of colors in a picture or the blending of notes of music which constitute the man—J. R. Macduff. Some Things Which Help To Develop Character (A) Suffering. God is love. In creation God revealed his hand, in the giving of Jesus, His Only Brotten Son, He revealed his Heart. We beheld the sound and depth and length, and the height of God's love. The Jesus revealed the character to God. The sorrows of life mission. "Only a small per centage of human beings place the true estate on the value of sorrow, trouble, or how that it has its place as machinery in the spiritual gymnasium and that by our use it we may develop character the purpose, aim, and end of existence. It strengthens courage, increases faith in the character to grow, and develops the higher attribution of the mind. Unless we are empathetic, more tolerant, more patient, and kinder after each trouble, we have missed a great opportunity that life has offered us, we must suffer again BRIGGSOGRAMS The Nature of Character A hearty welcome is extended to all. METROPOLITAN A. M. E. ZION Sunday school was largely attended at 9:30 a.m. The banner classes were Athenian and Hood Bible classes.

Miss Bargel will conduct a spiritual campaign at this church beginning Sunday, April 20th. The public is cordially invited to attend. At 11 o'clock the pastor preached from St. Mark 11.2 "We shall find a colt, wherever never a man sat; lose him and bring him to me." At 7:30 Dr. G. T. Long, the Preacher, and Washington District of the C. M. E. Church, preached a most acceptable sermon. The first anniversary of Garrett's Temple will be held the first Sunday in May. EASTERN STAR CHURCH OF Rev. Jackson preached a very helpful sermon here last Sunday at the morning services. In his discourse he emphasized the importance of being a true follower of Christ. At 8:30, the pastor, Rev. Jill Halle preached a very sermon, "Can these bones live?" The pastor will preach from a specially chosen subject next Sunday. MT. LEBANON BAPTIST At 11:30 the pastor preached one of the ablest sermons it has been the privilege of this congregation to hear. At 3 p. m. the Ancient Order of Knights and Daughters of Jerusalem assembled in this church to hear their twenty-eighth annual sermon preached by the pastor. At night Rev. Hudgins, of Newport News, who is conducting a revival in this church preached one of the sermon "There were five additions to the church. Next Sunday morning the pastor will preach on the "Risen Christ!" At night he will preach the annual sermon to the Sons and Daughters of Jeb BANK STREET BAPTIST The discourse delivered by Rev. C. M. Long it the morning service was in keeping with Psalm Sunday. His subject was "Christ's Victorious Entrance Into Jerusalem, his treatment of the subject dealt with varying opinion of the inhabitants upon beholding the Saviour's singular entry into the city of David, of whom he was the permanent influence of Christ's teachings, as manifested throughout the civilized world at the present time. Especially, was the point stressed, as to the great benevolent institutions which adorn and render human society sweetener as having their origin in the principles laid by Christ, of the eternal and abiding truth of the brotherhood of man. Rev. Long will ing the r think know in the D. Dy- imined: any wings; curs dures. and again until we recognize the hand of love beneath the glove of pain, until we experience the resurrection. "Passing a moment ere the day was done while yet, the day was seintillant with light, at intervals where my life path had run pose cross on cross, and nailed upon each was my dead self. Yet the grucuse sight, lent sudden splendor to the falling light, showing the conquests that many souls had won. Up to the rising stars I looked and cried there is no death, for each day vebron, I wake to larger life, joy more great, many times have been saved. So far the resurrection mom, I go triumphant, though new calvaries wait." Ella, Wheeler Wilcax (B) Tempation (testing struggles. Strength comes by wrestling, knowledge, by observing; wisdom by thinking, and character by enduring and struggling. "Travelers to Alaska tell us that the wild berries attain sweetness there of wild berries, and a smile shows nothing. The scientists say that the glow-worm keeps its enemies at bay by the brightness of its own light. Our Pauls and Luthers and Linecins and Douglashes have passed through the fire, flood and thunder of life's battle. (C) Responsibility. God educates men by casting, upon their own resources—Hillis, Jesus made the humble and unbounded fishermen of Galilee fishermen of the world sent them forth to teach the world.
