Luggage Repaired Umbrellas Recovered Parker Fountain Pens Headquarters The Newest, the Most Convenient and the Most Reasonably Priced TRUNKS—BAGS—SUITCASES Luggage of Every Description and A Vast Showing of Leather Novelties THIS fall, during the football season, Norfolk will have three big games if present plans can be worked out. Hampton and St. Paul are certain to play here, as they are scheduled for the 18th of October. Union and Lincoln have "buried the hatchet" and may play here on the 25th of October if Union decides to come here rather than stay home. Shaw and Virginia Normal have November first as the date of their probable meeting here. These three games will bring together six of the strongest teams in collegiate circles. Last year Hampton and St. Paul fought a bitter, gruelling contest which was not decided until the last two or three minutes of play. Hampton has won the last two battles from St. Paul and she is certain to be anxious for revenge. St. Paul has been called the "sensation of the C. I. A. A." and her remarkable rise has been wonderful. A game between her and Hampton with the fine prospects both teams have for a formidable eleven, bids fair to be the greatest battle ever staged here between college football teams. Norfolk can be assured of more and more of theses games if she continues to attend them as she has done in the past. Indications point to an exciting fracas, so close that the final victory will in all probability go to the team that receives most of the breaks of the game. Keen manifestations of interest are being displayed now in football and Norfolk awaits anxiously the sound of the referee's whistle on the 18th of October. Schedules are being sent to this paper every week, but will not be published separately, but in one group in an early edition. In this edition we will give statements by coaches and other athletic officials; together with pictures. Beginning Monday, September the first, play in the Tidewater Tennis Tournament will begin. On that day the junior matches will open. Steadfastly believing that tournaments for Juniors are necessary to the growth of tennis, this paper has invited all boys who are not eighteen years old to participate and a good entry is already assured. Winners in singles and doubles will be the Junior tennis champions of Tidewater. Norfolk can show its interest and appreciation in this popular game by attending the matches. The Men's singles and doubles begin Wednesday the third of September at 3:30, p. m., on the Goff St. courts. NORFOLK PLAYER IN BIG AUTO DERBY AT NATIONAL TOURNEY CHICAGO IN SEPT Landy Taylor, well known tennis player of Norfolk, and a member if the Tidewater Tennis Club, made a creditable showing in the National Tennis tournament held at Baltimore last week. In the first match he met Ted Thompson, winner of the Washington tournament, who defeated Tally Holmes, new national champ, few weeks ago. Thompson played brilliant tennis but lost to Holmes in the finals. Thompson was hard pressed to lefend Taylor, the second set going to extra games. Thompson won 14-75. That Taylor should play to well against the star who fought it out with Holmes in finals speaks well for the progress that Norfolk is making. At the present stride it will not be long before our players will be figuring in the semifinals and finals, it is predicted. Dr. McGriff of Portsmouth also a member of Tidewater Club and his doubles partner, Dr. E. D. Downing of Roanoke, though failing to retain their title, put up some great battles before bowing to defeat. McGriff refused to be defeated, and only the old master Telly Holmes put him out of the running in the singles. DISMUKES MAY FINISH SEASON WITH GRAYS Pittsburg, Pa., Aug. 28—(P. N. S.)—William "Dizzy" Dismukes, who early this season managed the Indianapolis A. B. C.'s and later went to Birmingham Black Barons as manager, arrived in Pittsburg last week and announced that he was no longer with the strong Southern club, a member of the Nega National League. Dismukes announced that he and owner, Joe Rush, had disagreed over principle. It is rumored that Dismukes may complete the season with the Homestead Grays. Jeanette Club Wallons Strong Homestead Grays Jeannette, Pa., Aug. 27—(P. N. S.)—When the Jeannette club de- feced the Homestead Grays last Tuesday afternoon it was its second victory over the Grays in three contests this season. Weakness in the pitching of Branaham who walked five Jeannette players contributed largely to the defeat of the Grays, by a score of 4-2. VISITOR IN CITY Dr. Chalmers Hairston, of the Hairston Dental Clinic, of Baltimore, Md., who is attending the meeting of the National Medical Association at Hampton, Va., this week, visited the Guide office Wednesday. Dr. Hairston annually conducts dental examination and treatment on several thousand children of tender age. He states that is a time in child life when it is important that the teeth be looked after in order that the child may star out unhandcapped by defective molars, resulting in impaired health. Chicago, Ill., Aug. 28—(P. N. S.)—The first big colored automobile derby for 100 miles will be held by the Colored Auto Racing Association of Chicago at Hawthorne Race Track, Civero, (a suburb), on Sunday, September 15. Besides the big race, William Bottoms is adding a feature ten-mile sprint race to be called the Dreamland Special. The ten fastest cars in the trial will be eligible for the race and the 15 fastest cars in the trial will be eligible for the big derby. This race is attracting an unusual amount of attention, inasmuch as the entry of Malcolm Hannon, who drove the Barber-Warnock special built Ford and won the Indianapolis Derby, is one of the entries as is Bill Jefferies, Chicago bondsmen, whose Frontenac car was leading at the fifty-second mile in the Hoosier race when he was forced to the pits with a broken water jacket. Jefferies is anxious to show the public what he can do. Another driver who was in the Indianapolis race is Ernest Stevens of Chicago and his Dusenberg. Sureshot Sawyer of St. Louis, whose car did not get to Indianapolis in time, has entered as also has several other drivers in the Hoosier race, and a flock of drivers from Columbus, Ohio; Minneapolis, Minn.; and many other nearby towns. All wishing information regarding entries, seats, etc., can write to William Bottoms, 3518 State street, or to Frank Young, 3435 Indiana Ave. Chicago, for further particulars. The race is to be an annual event. Over three thousand dollars in prizes will be given away. The first prize is a silver cup and $1,500. Duplicate prizes in case of tie. FIRPO CONFIDENT ON BEATING WILLS FIRPO CONFIDENT ON BEATING WILLS White Sulphur Springs, N. Y., Aug. 28—(P. N. S.)—Sitting on the porch at Tom Luther's place last week, Luis Angel Firpo, the Argentine sensation, actually boasted about the outcome of his expected battle with Harry Wills. Through Joan Homs, he said that he would stop Harry Wills inside of 10 rounds, and that to prove that it was not idle press chitter chatter, vowed that he would unbelt a $10,000 wager at the market odds that he would accomplish this feat. Firpo certainly is optimistic, to the general public's way of thinking. With nothing but plenty of courage, brute ferocity and a strong body to back what a slow thinking brain requires, he is going into the ring with a man who has the courage of a Langford and the ring craft and cunning of a Jack Johnson. Wills, by those who AMOS HOKUM--- The Plot Thickens CAN YOU IMAGINE, AMOS HASN'T DEEN HOME IN THREE WEEKS, WELL... WHAT DOES HE THINK I WO-N-DER??! GOOD-MORNING MRS. HOKUM. WIFY ASKED ME TO DROP BY AND DRINK YOU OUT TO OUR COUNTRY COTTAGE, IF YOU CERTAINLY CARED TO DO SO. O-BOY I'M SO GLAD I DIDN'T LOSE THOSE TICKETS, WHEN I FELL IN. THAT COAL HOLE, NOW ILL GO HOME AND EXPLAIN IT ALL TO MY WIFE. JUST ONE BLOCK MORE OLD BOY. YES, MR3. HOKUM THE COUNTRY AIR WILL DO YOU SO MUCH GOOD, ETC. WHAT IS THIS?? know him intimately, is truly said to be the greatest Negro fighter of the present age, and they intimate that Wills' true value will not be known until he steps in the ring at the Jersey City bowl at Boyles' Thirty Acres on the afternoon of September 11. Wills, the intimate, has been working under wraps for the past two years in an effort to try and hure Dempsey into the ring with him. But Jack Kearns, the wily, is too foxy. He knows Wills' ability, and the nickname "dogger" which has been applied to him and his "bread and beans" ticket, is really appropriate. Firpo is nothing but a novice in the fight game. Ten years from today—it might be said that Firpo was the greatest fighter that ever lived. But today—it is laughable. A big money maker, that's about all. Good press stuff, too—his harping about what he will do to Wills when he meets him. But just consider the facts in the case. Firpo has the natural birth inclinations of a fighter from the shoulders down. He has strength—the fact that he floored Dempsey when they met last year proving this. He has courage—because he was knocked down six times by Dempsey and each time came back for more punishment. But that is all he does have. Now as to Wills. Wills is a veteran of the ring. Everything he does while inside the roped arena is according to a specified and set plan. He is strong. Ask Fred Fulton and Bartley Madden if he can hit. He is cunning. Ask the veteran Sam Langford or Bill Tate about that. He has courage. For unless he had, he would never now he considered a contender for the crown of heavyweight champion. And then, he has it from his shoulders up as well as from his 'shoulders down. The cards look as though they are stacked 4-2 for Wills. NORFOLK ELKS DROP TWO TO CAROLINA Fast Going North Carolina Team Wings Two out of Three from Elks and Takes One from Edenton. Elizabeth City, N. C., Aug. 22—Playing four games, winning three and losing one is the record of the Elizabeth City Giants for this week. On Monday the Giants defeated the Edenton Cubs 10 to 2 in an easy game. In the first game with the Elks, on Wednesday, it appeared that the Elks would have the latter of the argument, but the hard hitting of Slade and the crafty piling of Hawkins and Spruill in the inches finally won the game. In the last half of the ninth, Slade hit a corner with the bases full and saved the game. Thursday's game was brilliant; featured by spectacular plays made by Hawkins and Spruill. The timely hitting of Glover and the pitching of Spruill also featured. Friday's game was played with less determination than the other games. Heavy hitting by the Elk and Spruill's ineffectiveness in pinches cost him the game. Clubs desiring games write E. V. C. Alexander, Elizabeth City, N. C. Third Game Norfolk Elks ---101 204 010-9 E.

MOER 230 Mellon St., Campostella, Norfolk FLOWERS FORCES GREB TO DRAW THE COLOR LINE Georgia Sensation Gives White "Jumping Jack" Toughest Battle of Careers Pittsburg, Pa., Aug. 28—(P. N. S.)—Although Harry Greb, world's middleweight champion, received $7,012 for his 10-round, no decision bout with Tiger Flowers, who got $2,743, as his share, Greb announced last Friday that from henceforth and hereafter and for all time he would draw the color line. It was all because Flowers worried him so seriously during the ten rounds at Fremont, O. In the bout Flowers forced the famous "Jumping Jack" of Garfield Bottoms to extend himself to utmost in order to come through the bout without his reputation being tarnished. In fact many spectators of the bout believe that Greb won by only the slightest margin. In fact they claim that were Flowers and Greb to meet again soon in the ring Flowers would put him to sleep. It is believed that Flowers has weakened Greb's courage and that a victory for Flowers over him now would be an easy matter. On the other hand, it is thought that Flowers went into the battle filled with doubt, but the great showing he made against the Pittsburg fighter has given the Atlanta boy courage Greb and his manager are aware of this psychological phase of the matter and therefore have drawn the color line, to avoid the possibility of losing his crown to a Negro. In some quarters it is said that a delegation of local klansmen visited Greb and his manager soon after their arrival from Fremont, O., and requested that he not again meet a Negro in the prize ring. But there is still another version going the rounds in sportdont. It goes something like this—Mr. Flowers is going to find himself in a peculiar predicature before long. He is so good that the "money" fighters are going to refuse to meet him under any conditions. Usually a man must measure up to certain standards of ability before matchmakers and promoters will use him. You often hear it said of a fighter: "Who? That hum? We can't use him, he's no good." But Tiger Flowers promoters will say very soon to his manager: "Who, Tiger Flowers? He's too good; we can't use him: nobody will fight him." Greb is the first man, puglistically speaking, of importance that flowers has had an opportunity to meet. And the result is that Greb considers himself exceedingly lucky but he managed to pull through and in order to save his bacon he has resorted to the "convenient" side line. Greb was in the pink of condition and says himself that he "serves a world of credit for getting the decision over Flowers. All one who saw the fight say he was lucky. Greb is not going to take a chance on getting licked to a frazzle. Flowers, so that's why he drew to this line. Persons have seen Greb in numerous figures declare that they never saw him, right so hard in his entire ring care, that was forced to do in his battle wielder Flowers of Atlanta, in t'ir bout at Fremont, O., la Th'day night. Seldom has it ever been noticed, where Greb appeared to be somewhat bewildered by an opponent in the prize ring. But on several occasions Flowers appeared to have Greb completely under his control. On two occasions during the bout if Flowers had followed on his strong slashes to Greb's chin, the Pittsburg man would have been his victim.

Cleveland, Ohio, August 20.—An interesting and beautiful marriage took place Wednesday evening, July 16, at 8 o'clock, when Miss Alice C. Fulford became the bride of Mr. Fred Williams, of Louisville, Ky. The bride is the daughter of the late Mr. Wm. E. Fulford and Alphine Fulford, of So. Norfolk, Va. She was married at St. John's A. M. E. Church of which she is a member; Rev. Edward Clark performed the ceremonies. The wedding march was played by Mr. Murray Adams, of Cleveland, Ohio. Mr. A.

The bride was given in The show netted about $873.40, from which the war tax and expenses left a balance of $136. This sum will be added to by several contributions due the committee and it is expected that the sum will exceed the $500 mark on final tabulations. New York, Aug. 27—(P. N. S.) —The most noted veteran of the ring, Sam Langford, pulled down a 8436 purse here last Friday night at the Lafayette theatre, and he did not have to take jolt in the tummy or smash on the jaw to earn the money. Old Sam just ambled across the stage and ambled back again. Then he acted as referee for the spirited three-round exhibition between Jee Jeannette and one of Jeannette's pupils. But, poor Sam was as bashful as a school girl and the famous old hero of the prize ring was nearly frightened to death when Mr. Bernard, master of ceremonies, introduced him as the "Uncrowned King" of the prize ring. marriage by her brother, Mr. Willie Fulford, Jr. She wore a gown of white bridal satin trimmed in orange blossoms, chrystal beads and pearls.

MARTIN Mr. George Martin died at his home on Carey street, Douglass Park, Thursday, August 21 in his 72nd year after a lingering illness which he bore with Christian resignation and fortitude. For 40 years Mr. Martin had been a member of St. Luke, now St. Paul C. M. E. Church, and a member of the choir for 35 years. Funeral services over his remains were held at St. Paul Church August 25, Rev. D. L. Miller, pastor officiating, assisted by Rev. R. K. D. Garrett. The deceased was a charter member of Eureka Lodge I. B. P. O. E. of W. and was the oldest member of the Prodigial Sons. These societies turned out to pay the last respect at his bier. Mr. Martin was an old and one of the best known citizens of this city. Several years ago he married Miss Anna Allen, also of this city, who proceeded him to the grave 15 years ago. Their union was blessed with 8 children, all of whom survive except three. The survivors are Mrs. Mart Falls, of Atlantic City; Mrs. Rachel Edwards, of Philadelphia; Mr. David Martin, of Norfolk, and six grand children.

Dope on Wills-Firpo New York, Aug. 27—(P. N. S.) —The coming rumpus between Luis Angel Firpo and Harry Wills has the guessers doing trick stunts, head spins, etc. trying to dope out the winner in advance of the setto. The veteran Charley Harvey last week gave these views: "I rather hope Firpo will nail the big colored fighter, but if Wills has another fight in him like the one he turned loose against Fred Fulton in New Jersey a few years back, he is a sure thing to stop Firpo just as quickly as he nailed the Minnesota.

LONG WILLIAMS Sons of Norfolk Bring Reunion to Close With Big Parade and Reception The Sons of Norfolk reunion which began Sunday night, September 17, officially came to a close Thursday night following the grand street parade and mummoth reception at the Armory Hall, but being reluctant to give up enjoyment of the divers festivities provided for them during their stay here, most of the visitors remained in the city until the weekend. It has been variously estimated that between four and five hundred of them were here. passes an occasion on which a man which began Sunday night, September 17, officially came to a close Thursday night following the grand street parade and mummoth reception at the Armory Hall, but being reluctant to give up enjoyment of the divers festivities provided for them during their stay here, most of the visitors remained in the city until the weekend. It has been variously estimated that between four and five hundred of them were here. The occasion was one of the most eventful in the annuals of the city. Altho, attended with days and nights of pleasure, below the surface it held a deeper significance than mere enjoyment. The words "Sons of Norfolk" repeated a thousand times from a thousand lips gave a sort of magic appeal that stirred the attention of the people of Norfolk to the importance of appreciation of their home town. Again, the visitors who went thru the city and viewed the genuine progress made in business endeavor, home owning and religious activity by their relatives, friends and playmates who remained at home obtained an impression the benefits of which will not soon be lost. The event, too, had a touch of the pathetic, for among the visitors were some of a maturer age, who were aided the sight of substantial members owned by their families who "storm down their buildings where they" instead of following the lure to the great metropolitan centers. There was activity and more activity throughout the reunion. Enthusiasm burst forth Sunday night at the First Baptist Church when Mayor Roper delivered the welcome address, and never subsided until the last Son had taken a forlorn departure for his adopted home. On that occasion the auditorium of the church was packed to the doors, interest was intense and the spirit to enjoy themselves to the limit once more at home, among loving home-folks was rife among the Sons of Norfolk from out-of-town. **ELAIDOR DECORATIONS** A few days previous to the date set for the reunion the city profusely decorated a number of uptown streets with hustle and flags. Business places and residences caught the spirit and from hundreds of doors, windows, and fronts "Old Glory" was flung. Welcome signs, some modest, some glaring, all expressing a warm arrayed doors, windows, a w11s, sign boards and seemingly all other Monday morning, August 18, a conference of boards and local Sons was held at 926 Church St., but it was just what its name implied, a conference of boards, because those visitors and others not affiliated with boards were all somewhere in the hands of friends who were not in it that they were conferences in which serious discussion had no place, while the time was ripe for merry making. Tuesday, outing at Hampton Park was the amusement feature for the local and visiting members of the Phyllis Wheatley Circle, a ladies auxiliary. Wednesday followed with an outing to Little Bay Beach by the Daughters of Norfolk. Thursday, the street parade and on Friday there was a sightseeing, reception and smoker at night. The above outing is prepared program for the greatest amusement and the biggest merry up event out of those impromptu events, wherein, somebody just met a Son and turn on a good time. These occasions were numerous, several being staged in homes daily and nightly. Suppers, dinners, parties, barbecues, fishing, boating, bathing and everything that is afforded in a city by the sea where old Virginia hospitality makes the visitor partake of them were indulged by the home-convers. SHRINKING PARADE But without doubt the feature of the parade impressed the public most was the street parade. It was the finest, the largest and most been seen among colored people in this city for several years; in fact, the memory of only a few people here, if any, encom- passes an occasion on which a more beautiful parade was had in Norfolk. Five brass bands, the Excelsior, St. Joseph's Catholic, Premier Military, of Norfolk; Metropolitan, of Portsmouth, and Berkley Band, were in the line varied from the classical style which added to the sprightfulness of the step of the marchers and entertained the thousands strung along the line of march. Down town in the business section, along Main and Granby streets, shoppers, sales girls, clerks, office girls, salesmen, business men blocked the sidewalks, perched on low roofs and craned their necks from windows to get a glimpse of the Sons of Norfolk parade and hear the tunes of the band, which added to peel forth with unusual vigor and a d charm along these streets. Every contingent in line made a fine impression by its appearance and conduct. The silver cup that was offered by the local lodge for the organization making the best showing in the parade was won by the Norfolk Social and Beneficial Association, and it is the consensus of public opinion that the cup was justly awarded. There may have been an organization in the parade making the best showing, but there was none making the worst. Better and best are the only descriptive adjectives needed in this connection.

Up to this time, this Agricultural Credit Association has lent more than five million dollars to northwest banks. ‘They have deposited in other banks more than forty million dollars. ‘These banks, in turn, have thawed out their frozen credits and refund. ed the loans of individual mer- chants and farmers. The National Negro Finance Corporation will function along similar lines and we are persuad: ed to believe, that its program is big and broad enough and. suffc- ently attractive, elastic; and profi. table to command earnest and ac- tive support.” FLAYS INTELLECTUAL MORAL DISHONESTY striking sermon last sunday night ‘n “Some Things I Don't Believe Th.” Taking as a basis for his re- marks the incident of Peter's dis- simulation in Galations 2:1i-14, he declared, “I take my stand with Paul. There are some things | don’t believe in and I think there is ample justification for saying so in no uncertain terms. This is an age characterized by much trimming and resorting to expedi- ency. and the raising of false is- sues. In such a time I think it wise to assert firmly that I don’t believe in intellectual dishonesty, that is, refusing to face facts and assimilate new knowledge. I place in this eategory those who vehem- ently deny in matters which they have never intellectually. studied; those who when logically cornered arbitrarily alter the definitions of words, in order to carry theit point; those who reason a priori to the exclusion of the inductive method, for fear of being unable to retain an cpinion. All such are intellectually dishonest. Baneful Attitude “How baneful has been such an attitude in every phase of intel- lectual life. Think of the storm of abuse and criticism that greeted Harvey and his theory of the cir- culation of the blood; Galileo, in- venter of the astronomical tele- seope, and his support of the Co- pernican system of astronomy; Darwin and his theory of natural selection as an explanation of the diversity of species. What good has been accomplished by heated denials in these matters, save the clouding of the issue? “The same thing is true where problems of intellect cross the path of religion. One can be open-mind. ed to new explanations of truth and still be profoundly religious. Henry Drummond is never assailed as an infidel or doctrinal errorist, yet he accepted the evolutionary hypothe. sis and attempted to correlate it with the old religious faith. Dwight L. Moody ““Let us not forget the noble ex- ample of Dwight L. Moody. Ar old fashioned evangelist, yet open: minded enough to have both Drum: mond and Huxley to address his Bible conferences at Northfield The opposite of this open-minded. ness in religion proves an effective bar to God's newer revelations, o as the apologists would explair them ‘illuminations’. God speak: through the enlightened Christiar conscience His unfolding plan for human brotherhood and His uni. versal fatherhood. But the mar who refuses to think outside his creedal rut misses the revelation God and the reverent though hon: est thinker move on. The intel lectual sluggard and coward ar left to repair their outworn tradi tions as bist they may, while God persecuted but clear-headec prophets march on with Gos and lead the way. Think o} the blind traditionists in th pre-freedom days of Americar Slavery, their arguments based or God's word in favor of human slav. ery and against recognizing a Ne gro ministry in Georgia. But slav. ery has passed, and in that sam State of Georgia a Negro minister rose whose preaching Was So pow. ‘erful that white women have beer ‘known to run forward and hug and kiss him while he preached 1 refer to the late Dr, C. T. Wal ker. Moral Dishonesty “Also, I don't believe in moral dishonesty. ‘This differs from mer intellectual dishonesty in its ef. fect on the conduct of others. I consists in denying the possession of knowledge which we do possess in condemning as wrong thing: we secretly indulge in, in violat ing the weightior matters of hu: man and Christian brotherhood ir the name of expediency. The casi of Peter and the other dissembler: ut Antioch is the classic example But such dishonesty is attende with evil results. Think of hoy woeful would be the results in th lives of those we would for ex pediency deceive, if they shoul find us out. Expediency must nev er be allowed to put great mora imperatives at a disadvantage. know that it is not expedient to tel Fooling One's Self “Finally, I don't believe in spir- itual dishonesty, This dishonesty differs from either of the forego- ing in this respect, it affects one’s own self irrespective of effects up- on others, ‘This too is best defined by illustration. Those are guilty of this sin who profess the pos? session of living a life spotted with ‘many imperfections and sins. An- other example of this sin is the pleading of the piety of others as sufficient for yourself, as though sending your children to Sunday school would atone for your own indifference and positive wicked- ness. “But the worst fool is he who uttempts to fool himself. You hurt yourself for time and eternity with your unwillingness to admit spiritual loss _and insufficiency. Just as the praying Pharisee went down to his house not justified, so there will be many a fool in Hell who prated of accomplish- ments and possessions in matters spiritual which were not his.” Pentecostal Workers Thank Public and Ministers The workers of the Pentecostal ‘Movement who have just concluded ‘a six weeks’ evangelistic campaign under a tent on Landing between Henry and Tyler streets, contuct- ed by Rev, J, I. Parrar, Rev. Jonah Price, Rev. H, L. Blackwell, Rev. Dr. S. A. Howell, evangelist and general manager and Prof, Henry Griffin, pianist, have written to the Journal and Guide expressing ap- preciation to the citizens and min- isters of Norfolk for their co-op- eration and generosity. Particu- larly is thanks extended to those who furnished board und lodging to the visitors. The, workers state the meetings were entirely successful, many have confessed conversion, N. M. ASS’N IN SESSION (Continued from Page Onc) for so many years played its part 30 nobly in niedical advancement.” Speaking of the need of race hos- pitals, Dr. Plummer said in part, “T often wish that some of our Jnrge financial organizations. that tend to function for the betterment and advancement of health condi- tions could see the need and op- portunity to help our hospital pro- ierom, regardless of whether the hospital is private, charity or com- munity. ‘The only quesetion is, the hospital functioning properly ‘and is it doing good service in health development?

C., Aug. 29—In an order issued Monday morning Aug. 18, following a hearing on an application for a walk of certiarii the Supreme Court of North Carolina, overruled Judge E. H. Cramer, who recently refused to grant a hearing to Henry M. Goss, Durham race man, who applied for a writ of habeas corpus after Governor Morrison had granted Virginian authorities extradition papers for Goss. Judge Cramer refused to grant the hearing on the grounds that the court was precluded by the action of the Governor. The Supreme Court held that Goss was entitled to a hearing and directed that Judge Cramer, or any other judge who might be presiding over Durham Superior Court, comply. The court order was written by Judge George W. Conner, the newest associate justice on the bench. The case was an unusual one, but it is not a precedent, according to Chief Justice Holge.

The boys experienced the fact that the picking out and classing—first, second, third, and fourth places—of the four best ten car piles of corn from among thirty or more such piles is no simple job. The representatives of the three clubs were Walden Hunter, Warrick Walden and Henry Smith, Route 1, Holland, Va., of the Little Forks Boys Club; Fenton Summer and Webster Dillard, Route 3, Franklin, Va., of the Marsh Hill Boys Club; and Linwood Rogers and James Knight, Route 3, Suffolk, Va., of the Savage Crossing Boys Club. Beside the regular session works of the Short Course, the boys took part in various activities. James Knight led prayers at prayer service and Webster Dillard served on the Lunch Committee. They had a wonderful time and regretted to leave Friday morning when the time came to depart. Coal Phone 24683 CARLTON PAGE ELEVEN A. E. Director Borland makes good move. The placing of a traffic officer at the intersection of East Olney road and Church street at the morning and evening hours shows that Director of Public Safety Borland is ever on the alert for new traffic danger points in the city, and as soon as one is discovered takes the necessary steps to reduce the hazard. In a growing city where the business area is steadily widening and new street paving is going on more or less continuously new traffic perils spring up over night. The joining of Olney road and Highland avenue making a straight cross-town street has made that thoroughfare one of the heaviest traffic arteries in the uptown section. A wise move it was to place a guard at the point where the road intersects Church street, and one that will receive the commendation of the motorist and pedestrian, who through necessity must pass this corner several times daily. Particularly will the placing of a policeman here relieve a number of parents of a great deal of anxiety whose children must pass this point to and from school. The spirit of friendly co-operation shown by the white people of the city during the reunion of the Sons of Norfolk last week and which contributed so materially to the success of the affair is indicative of the fine sentiment of racial good-will prevalant here. And those white people including city officials, merchants and other who helped to make the visitors feel at home took advantage of a splendid opportunity to advertise Norfolk. There is no group of people on earth more responsive to fair treatment than members of our race, and there are few people more given to talking. It is safe to say that those visitors who have returned to their adopted homes in the North have already sung praises of Norfolk's excellent racial conditions, and the very best thing Editorial Page of that can be said about a community, like an individual, is that its heart is right. It is the increase of this same spirit of friendliness, helpfulness and goodwill between the races here that is going to prove a mighty factor in bringing about Norfolk's inevitable greatness. Smokestacks, steamships, railroads, etc. have their place in the making of a great city, but it is the love of and faith in the community, bred thru tolerance and brotherly, contact of among its different elements of population that go a long way toward hastening it on to its highest advancement. Those virtues are in evidence here. Let us have them in continued growth. Silver Jubilee of the Business League The twenty-fifth annual gathering of the National Negro Business League, in Chicago was an event of the greatest importance to the Afro-American people. It was the silver jubilee and more than 6,000 persons are said to have attended the meetings. This shows that interest in the work of the League grows instead of wanes, and that the good results which have attended the existence of the League since it was organized in Boston, justifies the hopes of its organizers that it would serve as an inspiration and a hope to the business-minded members of the race. The reports made to the League meetings all show that the race has struck its business stride in earnest and that, as President Coolidge said in his letter to the gathering, proceeding along the lines of development it has been pursuing, the interests of the race "will be cared for." Business growth is our business, and we cannot do too much in any place as individuals or as groups to aid on the good work. It is the only way to make for ourselves the place in American life to which we are justly entitled. Wealth properly accumulated and wisely used for living and developing purposes, is the greatest power in modern life. Wealth can create nothing but it gives to those who create and wisely use it an advantage which can not be over estimated. The race is beginning to understand this crucial fact and is being benefitted accordingly. The Negro Business Man and Woman are becoming a factor for good in the life of the race and of the country, and their beginning in this important matter was coincident with the organization of the National Negro Business League in 1900. We should all be gratified at the growth we have had in business in the past twenty-five years, and it should stimulate us to go on to "the heights by strong men won and kept." Dr. Dubois Discovers Dr. Moton The Crisis, edited by Dr. W. E. D. DuBois, at last has discovered in Dr. Moton virtues that it feels constrained to extol. Under the caption, "Tuskegee and Moton" in the September issue it exclaims, "Our hats off to Moton and Tuskegee," and follows with a stirring comment on conditions surrounding the hospital during the notorious wrangle over its personnel, waxing eloquent in praise when it asserts, "Tuskegee could not yield, neither to threats, to punishment nor death * * * They promised murder and disgrace; they used every scheme to make Moton yield. And Moton wavered, hesitated—and stood. Stood firmly and calmly with his back to the wall. He and the Negro world demanded that the Government Hospital at Tuskegee be under Negro control. Today, at last, it is." Thus, the unshakable faith that thousands of Negroes maintained in Dr. Moton's honesty and earnestness of purpose throuout the controversy which raged around the hospital, has been vindicated, appears to be the opinion of The Crisis. A journal, like an individual, may be graciously pardoned and even commended for a change of front on men and measures when it becomes convinced that by so doing it may render a greater public service. We suspect that what The Crisis refers to as new-found manhood in Dr. Moton to be new only in respect to having been recently discovered by its editors. Thousands of its readers long ago learned of the man what has finally penetrated the editorial sanctum of The Crisis. The accusations, and insinuations, oftimes steeped in invective, destructive criticisms and ridicule hurled at him, hundreds of his loyal and staunch followers knew to be, in the main, vaporings based on illogical deductions and hasty conclusions. The manly and dignified stand taken by Dr. Moton last year when he politely declined to attend the meeting of the Executive Committee of the Y. M. C. A., of which he is a member, in Washington, after it had been suggested to him that he compromise his self-respect by not insisting on sharing the accommodations provided for his associates for fear of injurying their sensibilities on the race question, an incident made public for the first time by The Crisis itself in the same article in which it commends his stand in the hospital-fracas, seems also to have shed a light into the editorial rooms of that journal which enables it to see and appreciate Dr. Moton as the man he really is. --- Norfolk Journal and Guide The Y. M. C. A. Brand of Christianity It would be difficult to find a more shameful capitulation to race prejudice by an institution ostensibly devoted, to disseminating Christ's teachings than that made by the Y. M. C. A. last year when shortly before the meeting of the Executive Committee in Washington, the general secretary of the Young Men's Christian Association in that city wrote a letter to Dr. John R. Mott, general secretary of the International Committee suggesting that Dr. Moton, a member of the Executive Committee, be persuaded to compromise his self-respect and accommodate himself to the prejudices of his white associates by conveniently absenting himself from all conferences at which meals were to be served, and the subsequent approach to Dr. Moton with this suggestion by Dr. Mott, as explained in an article on the front page of this paper. The Young Men's Christian Association occasionally has been the target of scathing criticism and accusations charging that it is in the United States a monumental hypocrisy parading under a veneer of Christianity, while actually harboring and even nuturing a most unChristianlike doctrine of race prejudice; the latest and most piercing of these darts being hurled by Rev. Dr. Archibald H. Grimke, of Washington, whose sermon was so pungent in its attack on the hypocritical attitude of the institution that it aroused the ire of a Southern Congressman, and for a time menaced the Howard University appropriations. However, this latest expose comes not from an outsider, but from a letter written by the general secretary of the Washington Y. M. C. A. to the general secretary of the International Committee, revealing a compromise of Christian principles and a capitulation to bigotry so flagrant that it leaves the association bared as an organization supinely and complacently acquiesing in, and even encouraging, race intolerance—the vilest foe of Christ's teachings. If there was any member of the Executive Committee, as Mr. Cooper presumed there was, with a conscience so seared with that most unGodly taint of race prejudice or that equally unGodly taint of self-superiority that he should recoil at the presence of a cultured Christian gentleman of any race at the same table with him, he is in no manner fit to act the role of teaching to others the love of the Christ. Saturday, August 30, 1924 TALK ON the essentials in science, art and religion. Let those who will, revel in superficialities. COMMAND HIGH PLACES And yet I devoutly wish that more members of the Negro blood might command high places and achieve great deeds. It brings respect to the race and makes it easier for the Negro to respect himself. It is a tragedy to have white men monopolize what few high stations Negro life affords. It adds nothing to the glory of the white race, but leaves the Negro poor indeed. In the normal state of things every race will produce illustrious names in about the same relative numbers. There is no inherent relation between race and excellence or color and noble quality. Flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God. Just as we deem it a sin for the white race to bow down and worship a white God, just so it is no less for the Negro to bow down and worship a black one. OLD WORLD REFLECTIONS Editor's Note: Mrs. William Pickens and Miss Julia Derricotte, New York City, are both now traveling in Europe, their mission being Standard Life Agents of North Carolina To Meet Raleigh, N. C., Aug. 27.—Standard Life Insurance Company will hold regional conference for North Carolina district at Raleigh, N. C., September 11, 12 and 13. The Civic and Business League will entertain the conference at a smoker on Thursday night and on Friday night a public meeting will be held at which time all Negro Life Companies operating in Raleigh will be represented by local or general officials. The theme of the meeting will be the contribution of Life Insurance Companies to the Economic and Social Development of the Race. Mr. L. E. Graves, Agency Director for North Carolina is in charge of this meeting. dating back hundreds of years in the walls. The Dutch Student movement has leased the place as a sort of centre where students may come for recreation, etc. They love to come here and have sleeping quarters (just bunks in some of the upper rooms and attics) a large dining room, living room and library open for their use. Dr. Rutledge and his wife also have their private quarters here. The grounds are very beautiful. The secretary and one gentleman there understood English quite well and arranged for us to have dinner and go on back to Utrecht by bus (which passes at intervals in front of the castle) and thence out to Nunspeet. After two changes of trains we reached this little town. A telegram sent by the secretary had told of our intended arrival and we were met by several ladies and gentlemen students and after another walk of about fifteen minutes landed at a very pleasant Dutch pension where we had a single bed in the same room. The next morning at 8:00 the only carriage of the town was sent for us and we were transported through the sandy roads to the camp. One does not realize that there are high ports in Holland, but here it is high, sandy, and very dry. Two things impressed me in this part of Holland. The very extensive use of bicycles by all and the extreme politeness of the people. Even the porters at the station salute you upon your inquiring for information. Since Holland is so level, cycling is easy and therefore one sees bicycles used by all the people instead of autos, the latter not being seen much in this vicinity. Most of the students come on bikes bringing their luggage tied on behind. Others come by train but bring bikes as we do baggage. In the afternoon, the roads are full of cyclers instead of autos as in our country. It struck us as strange that the students chose this barren looking place for their camp. We usually choose shady spots in America but as I stay here, I find that it has its good points. One can see every spot on the grounds in one glance and I suppose this is an advantage where there are so many (250) men and women. Seventy-one of the number are women. The men live in tents sleeping on beds of straw with their blankets. There are eighteen of these large tents, accommodating about ten each. There is a large mess- hall where all of us eat. This and the kitchen are built of wood, stone floors, and the tables and benches are of wood. The food is simple but they eat often as do the Germans. Breakfast at 8:30 of bread, thin slices of cheese, jam, tea, and butter. At noon greens, potatoes, meat, gravy, and rice cooked in milk with just a smothering of sugar or oatmeal cooked in the same way. I ate because I was hungry, but do not care for gruels
