COLOR INCUBUS IN Y. W. C. A. ASSO'N Y. W. C. A. School of Hygiene Puts Up Bar Against Cultured Race Woman. (Special to The Journal and Guide.) New York, N. Y., Sept 3—Miss Lyndia Gardine, of East Orange, N.

If you had only mentioned this fact on your eligibility estimate blank, the matter would not have been carried this far.

Assaults With Vase Alex Sessoms, 750 Smith street, was arrested Wednesday on complaint of Nora Smithwick, who accused him of striking her with a glass vase cutting her forehead DURHAM PAPER PUTS O. K. ON RACE LEADERS Influential Carolina Daily Avers Connection of Spaulding and Moton With Finance Concern Affords Security. PAYS SUBSTANTIAL TRIBUTE TO OFFICERS The Durham Morning Herald published at Durham, North Carolina, one of the most influential journals in that State and enjoying considerable national prestige sees in the connection of Mr. C. C. Spaulding and Dr. R. R. Moton with the National Negro Finance Corporation what "insures the honesty of its purpose and the safety so far as humanly possible of its undertaking." Commenting editorially on the finance concern in its issue of August 18, the Herald takes a highly optimistic slant of the corporation and its possibilities and pays substantial tribute to its chief officers, Mr. Spaulding and Dr. Moton, when it adversely must remain confident. The Herald's Herald's comment which breathes an atmosphere of encouragement and best wishes for the success of the undertaking is viewed as a most striking instance of the increasing tendency of the white press to recognize and give substantial support to worthwhile movements having for their purpose the material advancement of the Negro. "It is human to recognize and praise success, but it is more worthy to encourage the struggle on the lower rungs of the ladder and help him toward the goal. Everybody rushes forward to congratulate a winner, while the loser is often forgotten, and must suffer alone, though he is the one really needing encouragement. The loser often fights as hard as the winner, and deserves praise. He him encouragement, and he will go out with him, and next he himself be the winner and the recipient of the plaudits of a fickle people. We like to help the deserving in their struggle toward a worthy goal. "It is not our policy to refer in these columns to promotion schemes. They are handled by the advertising department. But, there are exceptions to all rules, and right here we are going to make one of those exceptions. There has been launched here within the last few months an enterprise having for its purpose helping the colored man to find himself in a material way. The company has announced purposes along that line, but too few of them have been more than flim-flam games. But the National Negro Finance corporation is different. The officers of it alone insure the honesty of its purpose and the safety so far as humanly possible of its undertaking. Its president is R. R. Moton, head of Tuskegee Institute, and unquestionably one of the foremost. If not the foremost, Negroes of the country. His services have an impact on him recognition and an officer of Durham, N. C., is vice-president and chairman of the executive committee of the corporation. He is probably not quite as well known nationally as Major Moton, but he has gained a reputation as one of the greatest among the leaders of the Negro race in things material. In business and finance he stands in the same relation as Major Moton does to the educational and welfare work among the people of his race. The mere fact that Moton and his team have joined forces in promoting an undertake in itself as much guarantee of its success as is humanly possible. Their names carry confidence. "The National Negro Finance corporation has headquarters in Durham, the home of so many successful Negro undertakings. Its motto is announced as "Service and conservation," a declared purpose is to provide working-class foral to provide firms, firms and corporations; to seek and point new opportunities for profitable efforts; to create and develop a market for listing, buying and selling Negro securities, and many other things all tending to further the advancement of the Negroes of America in a material way. It is an unusual undertaking, but its high purpose and its management assure for it the success that it seems to have secured. Are there buildings are two Negroes who have labored long for their people and who have won the love of their race and the commendation of the whites.

It was a serious minded group, fully appreciative of the serious business before it, and the laity probably will realize the wonderful benefit that must come to it directly from the meeting of the national medical association, the joint-ynthy session. No section of the country was unrepresented, members being present from the North, South, East and West. The programs of the public health meetings held at night were highly interesting and decidedly beneficial, much valuable information on the general care of health care. Dr. Michel D. Oumas, of Washington, D. C., succeeded Dr. John O. Plummer, of Raleigh, N. C., as president of the association and Dr. Walter Alexander, of Newark, N. J., was made president-elect. Chicago was chosen as the place of meeting next year and Philadelphia in 1928. Tidewater profusely entertained the visitors during their stay in this section.

Easton, Md., Sept. 3—With his wife standing at his side, Sheriff William Hopkins, of Talbot County early today drove off two unidentified men who broke down the doors of the jail in an attempt to seize Carroll Gibson, a farm hand, who is accused of attacking Mrs. Norman Baker. After repulsing the two men, Sheriff Hopkins advanced upon a crowd of about 50 men and youths who were watching the attack on the jail and ordered them to disperse. There was a hurried conference among the leaders, then the crowd disappeared. Sheriff Hopkins said no attempt was made to attack him, and that it was not necessary for him to draw his gun. SPOKENES DEMAND PRISONER The attack upon the jail, according to Sheriff Hopkins, took place shortly after midnight. The crowd which, he said, was composed of men from nearby farms and towns, assembled before Sheriff's Hopkins' home, which is in front of the jail.

When they obtained no answer, according to Sheriff Hopkins, they seized clubs and broke down the door of the sheriff's apartments. The crowd assembled in the square, Sheriff Hopkins declared, took no active part in the attack, but called encouragement to the leaders. The sheriff and Mrs. Hopkins ran the door in time to halt the men before they gained entrance. The attack stopped when the officer appeared on the steps, which were brilliantly lighted.

AS "PARTY OF LITTLE AMERICA" AND KLUX VIRGINIA BUILT 45 SCHOOLS FOR RACE LAST YEAR Colored People Contribute $59,000 of Funds Expended In Erection of Buildings For Education of Their Children ROSENWALD FUND WAS LARGEST CONTRIBUTOR (Special to The Journal and Guide.)

Negro Advance In State Of Alabama Great Mongomery, Ala., Sept. 4.—(P. N. S.): There appears to be a great tendency on the part of the forward looking whites of Alabama to let the world know how proud that state is of the efforts the Negro population is making to improve its condition. The following editorial in a recent issue of The Montgomery Advertiser, bespeaks the attitude toward the Alabama Negroes. Under the caption of "Negro Advance in Alabama," the editorial follows: "The greater progress of the Negro in the South compared with the condition of the race in northern centers where they have been colonized by industry, has been dealt with in these columns before. In the northern cities where the Negro has been encouraged to enter trade and the professions, the successful Negro stands out above his follows and the grouping of interests is not as pronounced as in the South, although there is a strong business association of the race in the North and South, combining leaders from many cities, of which Dr. R. R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Industrial Institute, is president. "In no single state can the Negro point to the same racial advance that he has attained in Alabama, where the advance is measured by educational facilities, business success, industrial opportunity, religious growth and fraternal organization. In this last phase the report of the grand lodge meeting of Negro Masons held in Birmingham last week, contains some surprising figures, including an affiliation of 950 subordinate lodges and an endowment income of $856,992 in its insurance department. It was shown that this department has paid death claims of $867,789 and operating expenses of $86,487, leaving a net surplus of $454,715, the SUBSCRIPTION PRICE $2.00 PER YEAR cost of operation of the department being 4 1-2 per cent. The woman's side of the organization showed receipts of $42,200 for one year. "Part of the endowment fund surplus has been put into the construction of a Negro Masonic Temple, at Birmingham, which has cost $557,704 and is said to be the finest and most expensive building owned entirely by Negroes in the United States. The structure is of brick, stone and marble, seven stories high, with an auditorium seating capacity of 2,000 persons, four lodge rooms and 154 offices. The number of offices for rental exclusively to Negroes, indicates the professional and business progress of the race in Birmingham. "Perhaps no other accomplishment better describes Negro development in the State than the erection of the Masonic building at Birmingham. The great industrial institute at Tuskegee—the largest of its kind in the world—was built with money of white sympathizers and is partly operated with the help of the State, but the structure just completed in Alabama's chief industrial city, is entirely the work of Negroes, is a further credit to the Negroes and well describes the development possible where the white man and the Negro understand each other while at the same time observing the integrity of each race in a mutually recognized social separation." While the editor of the Montgomery Advertiser has paid a glowing tribute to the achievements of Negroes in Alabama, he should widen his knowledge by studying the advancement made by Negroes in Louisiana, Tennessee, Arkansas, Texas, Kentucky, North Carolina, Missouri, Georgia, Virginia, New York and Illinois. His attention is especially called to Georgia, Virginia and North Carolina. Runs Amuck Attacks Wife With An Axe Runs Amuck Attacks Wife With An Axe Goldshore, N. C., Sept. 4—(P. N.

T LITTLE D KLUX EX-ASSISTANT U.S. ATTORNEY OUT FOR DAVIS Renounces Republicans As "Party of Little America And Ku Kluxism;" Sees Hope in Democratic Party. PROPOSES TO WORK AND VOTE FOR J. W. DAVIS New York, Aug. 31—William H. Lewis, former Assistant Attorney General of the United States and one of the leading Negro citizens of the country, came out yesterday for John W. Davis, Democratic nominee for President, and attacked the Republican party as "the party of little America and Ku Kluxism." Mr. Lewis, who was graduated fromumberland College and Harvard Law School, was a famous football star while a student, announced his renunciation of the Republican party in a statement made public at the Democratic eastern campaign quarters in the Hotel Belmont. "As a colored American citizen, I propose to work and vote for John W. Davis because his record shows him to be a man of humanitarian instincts, of broad and universal sympathy," he said. "As a colored American, I propose to vote for Mr. Davis because he is opposed to the Ku Klux Klan, the greatest menace to American democracy today. It has raised the standard of religious bigotry, race hatred, and is striving with might and main for the control of the American Government, to administer it in the interest of one group of Americans. It is aimed first at the Negro, then at the Jew, then at the Irishman and the Catholics, and against all foreign born, as if any man had the say as to the race in which he should be born or in what country. "There are colored men now living who remember the Ku Klux Klan of another day. It came into being to put the colored voter and citizen out of business. Intimidation, coercion, riot and murder, were there not? Fifty years ago the Democratic party was the Ku Klux party to the Republican party. The debate of the Ku Klux Klan in the Democratic Convention was the most refreshing and wholesome thing that has taken place in American politics in a quarter of a century. Mr. Davis has taken his stand upon that issue, and I propose to stand with him. "The Republican candidate for President has said nothing up to date about the Ku Klux Klan or against it. Is the Republican party afraid to take a stand against the Ku Klux Klan? Is it still the party of Lincoln, of Grant and Roosevelt? I see no way of putting down the Ku Klux Klan except through the instrumentality of the Democratic party. All that has been accomplished in Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Arkansas has been the work of the Democratic party. I am a major of Americans, including the Irish Catholic, the Jew and the foreign born, not only in the interest of self-preservation, but in the interest of my country." Colored People To Have Department Store In Philadelphia Philadelphia, P. Sept. 3—(A. N. P.)—The Gardner-Williams corporation reports important progress made toward the selection of permanent headquarters for the Negro department store, which the corporation plans to open in the fall. This is important when it is taken into consideration that Negroes in Philadelphia, numbering close to 160,000 spend yearly approximately $130,000,000. Negroes in Philadelphia own magnificent homes, have high-powered cars, wear expensive clothes and jewelry and every cent of that is spent with those who are day by day tightening the lines of employment on them. Fifteen million dollars is a conservative estimate.

REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD DRINK Tripure WATER "Pure Water is More Important than Pure Food" TRIPURE is the purest water known to science. TRIPURE is fully aerated. TRIPURE will insure against contagion in water. TRIPURE will prevent many kidney and bladder troubles. TRIPURE will prevent or delay hardening of the arteries. TRIPURE is above suspicion and is being used by Government departments, hotels, clubs, noted scientists. Laboratories, Chemical engineers. The great, ever-present danger in Spring, Hydrant and other "raw" water is not germs—it is mineral matter which is not needed in the human body, as sufficient cell salts are furnished in a natural form by the solid food. The earthy material is simply refuse; it makes additional work for the excretory organs, and all of it can not possibly be eliminated except by Distillation. Mothers with young babies can not afford to be without TRIPURE WATER. TRIPURE comes in cases of six triangular bottles. They make their own way in your ice box. TRY A CASE-IT SAVES ICE Ask the Doctor--Don't Take a Chance--Use TRIPURE Your wife and children are entitled to TRIPURE Insurance. The TRIPURE method of distillation, condensation and aeration is the only means of producing absolute pure water. Why drink other waters when you can get TRIPURE?

At last the dancer could stand it no longer. I say, my man, he observed, what makes you stare so rudely at this lady? It ain't rudeness, sir, believe me, it ain't, returned the waiter. It's genuine admiration. This is the fifth time she's been down to supper tonight. In a few more years the only way you will be able to see the country is by peeping over a billboard.

JOHNSON, JR. The wedding ring has been called cupid's official seal, if so woe unto those who have been stamped. It's a seal that cannot be easily erased. Once you are stamped with one it's hard to break it. More trouble can happen in the small band of a wedding ring than in any official prize ring or bull pen. Some are lucky to hop out, but there are a few in number. Some women seem to think that guarantees come with wedding rings and they don't fail to try to make you live up to it. One fellow who was a prize fighter was asked why he didn't marry since he had made a small fortune in the ring. He was of the opinion that in spite of the fact that he was a master in the fighting ring, wedding rings were to small for him. He said, he was a defensive fighter and that called for a great deal of foot work. A prize fighter's footwork is never fast enough to keep up with the mouth of a woman. Matrimonial sparring partners are usually too rough on the fighter and it doesn't pay.

WILLEY A. JOHNSON, JR. The Young brothers, Thomas W. and P. Bernard, successfully played through to the junior doubles and singles championships of Tidewater Va., in the first Tidewater Tennis Tournament fostered by the Journal and Guide and the Tidewater Tennis Club, and held Monday and Tuesday of this week in two days of the most strenuous tennis play, defeating Kernit Sturgis and Sylvester Smith of Cape Charles in a bitterly fought three set match, 6-4, 3-6, 6-3. Both won their way through to the finals in the singles, winning against players who, for their experience, played tennis worthy of men's tournaments at times. Rain held up the playing of their match for the junior singles championship and the singles cup on Wednesday morning, but it was completed Thursday, P. Bernard Young winning the singles title and the cup by defeating Thomas W. Young, 6-4, 6-1. Entries were booked thru Saturday for the tournament and six doubles teams and twelve singles players entered in the junior tournament, which has been a success from every standpoint, especially in the first attempt. The spirit of local players and the Cape Charles contestants and their manager is the kind that will eventually place this section in a high place in the tennis world. Excellent sportsmanship was displayed throughout, except, of course, a few spasmodic outbursts caused by the strain of competition. In the first round of play in the doubles, Kermit Sturgis and Sylvester Smith defeated Phillip Besslow and Willie Robinson in straight sets, 6-4, 6-3. The play was hard throughout and the superior ability of the team of Sturgis and Smith to make difficult returns won them the victory. Robinson showed promise of becoming a fine player, and aided by his partner Besslow, gave a good account of himself in this match. William Smith and Ted Sturgis of Cape Charles and Edgar Peters and Horace Smith of this city drew lives in the first round. Out-driving, out-smashing, and showing superior and more effective variety of strokes, Young and Young, local players defeated Winston Tyler and Webster Woodley, 6-1, 6-1 in their first round doubles match. Both Tyler and Woodley made returns that were so unexpected that they often secured points that seemed made by the other team. It was another promising team, but against the fire directed at them by Young and Young, they wilted. Ted Sturgis was forced to return home, leaving his partner without a teammate, causing a forciture and advancing K. Sturgis and S. Smith to the finals. Horace Smith also failed to appear and the team of Peters and Smith defaulted. Young and Young advancing to meet K. Sturgis and S. Smith. Playing the best tennis of their careers, the Young brothers outgeneraled and outplayed their vigorous opponents in a gruelling three-set match under a boiling sun that at times threatened to weaken both teams. The first set went to the victors at 6-4, their opponents being unable to stem the tide of defeat sent over by the terrific drives, lobs and net smashes. Bernard Young played one of the most aggressive games of his tennis career, and aided by the determined attack of his brother, finally won the match, though losing the second set 6-3. Changing courts with a stiff breeze blowing affected their accuracy but in the next set, after a rest necessitated by the oppressive heat they lobbed, smashed, drove, and placed to defeat Sturgis and Smith 6-3. Only the best of super tennis could have won against the Cape Charles finalist, who lacked a consistent offense. SINGLES PLAY P. B. Young and Kernit Sturgis drew byes in the first round along with Ted Sturgis and Horace Smith. Sylvester Smith won from Willie Robinson 6-4, 6-3 in a hard fought match. William Smith defeated Winston Tyler 6-0, 6-2 by better serving and more accurate driving. Edgar Peters won from Phillip Beslow, 6-1, 6-1. Both players had frequent moments of dazzling tennis form that aroused the galleries. Thomas Young won from Webster Woodley, 6-2, 6-2 in the last first round match. In the second round four feature matches took place under the burning rays of the Labor Day sun, P. Bernard Young, Jr., defeated Kernit Sturgis, 6-1, 6-1. Young was at his top form, but Sturgis put up a great fight, seemingly being able to return any shot, but not offensively. Under the constant fire directed at him he cracked and Young took the first set, 6-4. In the second set, Sturgis won the first game, but Young rallied and swept through for six straight games and the match at 6-1. The second set was close, nearly every game being duced, but Young rose to the occasion and calling upon his reserve, outsteadied his opponent and outstroked him. The Smith brothers, Sylvester and William fought for three sets before the match was decided. William winning 13-11, 5-7, 6-3. William showed wonderful tennis sense throughout the tournament. The fight between little Ted Sturgis of Cape Charles and Horace Smith, local player, which went three sets was one of the features. Little Ted lost because he could not outlast his opponent. The score was 4-6, 6-1, 8-6. His rally in the third set was spirited and he barely lost his match. In another second round battle full of extended rallies and beautiful shots, Thomas Young defeated Edgar Peters 6-2, 6-3. Playing until dark, both players kept the galleries applauding the fine shots. Horace Smith defaulted for nonappearance to T. Young, advancing him to the finals. Bernard Young won from William Smith of Cape Charles, 6-0, 2-6, 6-1. By terrific driving and placements he won the first set at love. Together with a stiff breeze and Smith's rally, and Young's listless playing in the hot sun, Smith got the second set, but in the third set Young took five straight games, lost one and took the next for set and match at 6-1, going to the finals. All officials and others connected with the tournament are pleased with the results. Summary Singles:—First Round—P. B. Young, bye; Kermit Sturgis, bye; S. Smith d. W. Robinson; 6-4, 6-3; W. Smith d.

DECLARES ATHLETICS DETRACT FROM REAL SCHOOL EFFICIENCY DECLARES ATHLETICS DETRACT FROM REAL SCHOOL EFFICIENCY A Yale professor thinks that athletics are not essential to supremacy of college. "The inevitable distraction from college work which the excitement of these week-end occasions, accompanied as they often are by social entertainment on a large scale, has to be reckoned with. No thoughtful observer of American education can view the situation without some misgivings; and we must be prepared to deal with it in a vigorous manner, if it appears that the primary business of a university is really being interfered with." The schoolman does not deny that athletics have a large place in college life, but he decries the general tendency of schools to permit it to have such a prominent part, the effects of which he claims do not mitigate for the best good of the school. It is pointed out that athletics at present give an institution widest possible advertisement, but he questions the advisability of permitting athletics to major, as he believes such works eventually work to shdrdefncefwy fundamental purposes of the school. --- WONDER WHERE MY WIFE WAS GOING IN THAT CAR--AND WHO COULD THAT CUP HAVE DEEN THAT WAS WITH HER.

HOWARD-LINCOLN CLASSIC TO BE PLAYED AT NATIONAL CAPITAL --- (Special to the Journal and Guide) Washington, D. C., Sept. 3—An announcement on behalf of the Howard University was recently made by Dr. Emmett J. Scott, business manager of Howard Board of Athletic Control, that the Howard-Lincoln Football Game will be played at the American League Park, Washington, D. C., on Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, November 27, 1924, at two o'clock in the afternoon. This decision brings to a close very lively competition between New York City, Atlantic City, Baltimore, and Washington as the place where the next "Football Classic of the Year," shall be played. It is the intention to place tickets on sale early in September. Orders having already been given for printing the entire reserved sections of the American League Park, including boxes and grandstand seats. Elaborate precautions are being taken to see that each and every patron of the game is assured the best possible treatment. Ample police protection has been promised and in addition, sufficient ushers and ticket takers will be provided, thereby facilitating the handling of the crowd. The Howard University and Lincoln University authorities are working in exact accord that the coming game may be attended by every feature which will add greater interest and attractiveness to the game.

Wills Training On Perfect Edge Special to Norfolk Journal and Guide) New York, N. Y., Sept 3—Evidently the trend in opinions has changed in regards to the winner of the Wills-Firpo paddle scheduled for September 11. When the news got underway that the "Brown Panther" also训 "Wild Bull" were to meet in a fiite argument, all of the wise were believed that Loowie would win in a walk, especially after Wi. failed to rock the Irish shock to rebe to the land of Nod via kn out route. But since time has progressed and the fighters are preparing for the fight there has been a great change in opinions by experts in the cauliflower ear industry. From all indications the wisones have seen that Wills has the shade over the American from the other continent. It was also rumored that Wills was taking the fight lightly and was not taking to his training seriously and that he had a few hams in his camp to do his work out stuff with. If much stock can be taken in the saying, "still waters run deep." Wills' actions have greatly deceived the ones who were responsible for the rumors. The colored champion is several laps ahead of the Argentinian in training and the latter will have to step some to catch up. Wills has already carried his training to the stage where he will have to let up if he wishes to keep in the pink of condition for his fight. In order to keep from growing stale and bring over trained, Wills' last few days of training should be confined to light work. On the other hand Firpo has not reached the point where he can afford to let up a moment. One of the world's M--He Resists Temptation WIFE WAS GOING COULD THAT AS WITH HER. NOTE OR ANY- TIME IT'S SWIFT!! BEC PARDO SWIFT?--Y ANY MESSAGE IN CLASSIC TO BE NATIONAL CAPITAL greatest trainers, Jimmy DeForest has advanced the statement, that Firpo will have to put in some hard licks and blows if he hopes to be at the peak of his form on the night of the bout and Wills will have to slow down because he is a bit too far advanced. Readers can glean from this the advantage Harry has on his opponent and how much Mr. Angel will have to step to be in the money when the gong sounds. Considering Will's experience generalship and fastness, he should easily be the victor in this coming bout. He has the most ideal training quarters of the two and is not obligated to a large audience to carry his training beyond the schedule. In Jeff Clark, the "Joplin Ghost" he has a great asset as a sparring partner. Clark said, he never trains a loser. In spite of all that, Luis Angel Firpo is not to be toyed with, because he can sock with that starboard wing and it will spell disaster to any fighter who is not fortunate enough in evading it and in the meantime he is concentrating on the port side fin. The Argentine man of destiny declares he will whip Wills and regards his return to America to do battle with the latter as a matter of revenge, while the former is non-commitul as to the outcome of the fray. Wills says, the best man will win and it is a consesus of muffled opinions that he is right ELIZABETH CITY GIANTS CONTIUE WINNING STREAK ELIZABETH CITY GIANTS CONTIUE WINNING STREAK (Special to the Journal and Guide) Elizabeth City, N. C., Sept. 1— The Booster Baseball team of Portsmouth, lost to Elizabeth City Giants on Labor Day. The game began with a pitching duel between Savage, the premier pitcher of the Elizabeth City Giants, and Smith of the Booster team. Both pitcheres were in fine form and brilliant playing was registered by both teams, while Smith managed to keep hits scattered until the eighth inning. The Giants are playing semi- professional ball this season, and usually give the opposing team the benefit of the doubt. The stars of the day's game were: for Elizabeth Beth City Giants, Savage, McCloud, Smith and Glover. For Boosters were, Spruill, Howard, Jones, Struck out by Savage, 8; by Smith Base on balls; by Savage, one; by Smith, one. Score by innings. R H E Boosters 001 000 001—2 5 1 E.

It is reported that Miller comes forth with a magnificent offer to the middleweight champ of $5,000 to Greb if he will agree to fight Flowers in a decision bout. According to reports coming from the Greb quarters, the five thousand bucks may look like a gold mine to Walk Miller, but it is merely small spending change to Greb. It was intimated that if Miller would multiply that sum by ten and then double the amount Greb would probably lend an ear, although he has announced that he has drawn the color line. Efforts to communicate with Greb, who is resting at Atlantic City prior to going into training for his bout with Jimmy Slattery were without results. It is thought that Miller will have to talk in the $100,000 language to get Greb into the ring with Flowers again. BOB LE GRENDRE AND HUBBARD TO MEET IN BROAD JUMP BOB LE GRENDRE AND HUBBARD TO MEET IN BROAD JUMP Newark, N. J., Sept., 4—(P. N. S.)—The coming track and field championships at Colgate Field, West Orange, September 5, 6 and 7, and possibly the pentathlon title meet later on, will probably mark the end of the track career of Robert Legendre, who established a world record of 25 feet 6 inches for the running broad jump in the Olympic games at Paris. The meeting of Legendre and Dehart Hubbard, American broad jumping champion, will permit spectators to witness a duel that contains not only the usual rivalry, but one tinged a bit with professional jealousy. Hubbard, it seems, considers Legendre's leap in the pentathlon broad jump a matter of luck and told Legendre so. The University of Michigan athlete believes that he can go beyond Legendre's mark, though the best Hubbard has ever done is 22 feet 2 inches. Legendre says that he welcomes the contest with Hubbard for I regard him as a fine athlete and gentleman. More than just plain ability proves a factor in breaking a record is Legendre's contention. "That day at Colombes, when I was fortunate enough to jump 25 feet 6 inches," he said, "I was keyed up to it. When I went out for the practice leaps I measured of 23 feet and it looked more like fifteen. I knew that I would do my best that day, though I had hopes of only equalling Ned Gourdin's old mark of 25 feet 3 inches. When after my third jump, the officials informed me that I had made a world record I could hardly believe it." Hubbard, according to reports, is fine fettle for the contest with Legendre and has high hopes of returning winner over the world champion. Legendre plans to retire from the track after this event. He is undecided whether he will go in the movies or coach at some school. He has several attractive offers for both. Philadelphia, Pa., Sept. 4.—Philadelphia baseball fans will in all probability have an opportunity of witnessing a World's Series here. Ed. Bolden, manager of Hildale, champions of the Eastern Colored League has decided to issue a challenge to the Kansas City Monarchs title holders of the Western Colored League, for such a series. Hildale is favorite to again cop the laurels, although the Darbyites will not have an easy time in doing so, as they are playing with a crippled line-up right now. --- --- LOCAL MEN'S TOURNAMENT NOW ON HERE With twelve doubles team and twenty-seven singles players entered in the Tidewater Club for the championships of Tidewater and possession of the beautiful Journal and Guide Cups, the battles during the play will be hard and many.

GRAYS LOSE SERIES TO FOSTER'S GIANTS GRAYS LOSE SERIES TO FOSTER'S GIANTS Pittsburg, Pa., Sept. 5—(P. N. S.) The Homestead Grays leading semi-pro team in Western Pennsylvania, we're out-classed, out-batted, out-guessed, in fact out-everything, by the redoubtable American Giants, Rube Foster's strong diamond machine, last week in a there game series at Forbes Field It must not be understood that the Grays did not offer stiff opposition to the lads from the Windy City, for they did. Thousands of Pittsburghers and visiting Elks from all parts of the United States witnessed interesting baseball contests during these engagements, but the Giants appeared to have the edge on the Homesteaders in all departments of the game. The Grays make all the semipro white teams in this sector practically eat from their hands. The tables were reversed when the Giants met them.

LEFT. 121-222 CHICAGO, IL. --- AMUSEMENTS "SHADOWS OF PARIS" This picture has all the qualities of a leaded gun turned directly at the audience. There will be a finger trembling over the trigger all the time and the suspense will keep people on the edge of the seats. There are actual motion pictures of troops in action during the great War; bombing planes over Paris; and war scenes which have never before been shown. There are magnificent Paris Solons, drawing rooms where Pola Negri wears gowns, which have known their equal in motion pictures, underworld dense where we see the Apaches enjoying their wild dances, planning their raids upon the upper classes. The audience will thrill with apprehension, when Pola Negri, as the wife of the Minister of Interior, is almost unmasked before her wealthy friends in her own drawing room during a brilliant affair. And while she crouches behind the flimsy cupboard in the Cafe Boule watching her husband, who is so close she could touch him. While the infatuated Fernand is playing out his little tragedy with Claire in her room, and burglaries creep nearer, unsuspicious of the ring of police around them, the audience will be on their toes with nervous anticipation. The whole picture is filled with hair trigger situations. It is also relieved throughout with enlivening touches of humor. From a moment of nerve wracking fear, the audience will suddenly let itself go in a flood of welcome laughter, only to have the mirth wiped from their lips by some fresh situation of peril and drama. You will laugh at the adventure of Liane in the taxi with Robert the tough chauffeur, the vari- Off To National Encampment V. F. W M Mr. George Halstad, Sr. Vice Commander of Prince A.

You will cry at the grief of the little girl cast off by Fernand when he discovers Claire again, at the dumb sadness which comes over Madame Boule, proprietress of the Cafe Boule, when she learns her son, Emil, is dead. "Tiger Love," a new Paramount picture, directed by George Medford and featuring Antonio Moreno and Estelle Taylor comes to the Attucks Theatre on Wednesday for a run of two days. The story is an adaptation of the popular Spanish Opera, "The Wildcat," by Manuel Penella. It is a story rich in romance and fire of old Spain and one of the most dramatic tales ever transferred to the screen. It is the love story of a great bandit chief and daughter of an aristocrat, and it has a happy ending. "Tiger Love" is a swift-moving drama, portraying the life of a modern Robin Hood. One of the bandit's lieutenants captures a beautiful daughter of the rich and carries her off to a mountain stronghold. But the Wildcat (Moreno) undergoes a change of heart and sends the girl back home unharmed. One night the Wildcat hears of a wedding in the city. At midnight he invades the residence to steal the presents and comes face to face with Marcheta. In a moment of remorse she tells him her father and the Mayor of Goya are forcing her to marry Ramon, nephew of the Mayor. As Marcheta and her bridegroom are about to enter the church the following day the Wildcat at the head of his band of desparacides abducts them from under the nose of a heavy guard of soldiers and takes them to his mountain stronghold. There he tries to make Ramon fight him for Marcheta's hand but Ramon faints from sheer cowardice. In defiance of her father Marcheta decides it is the Wildcat she loves and altho he is a hunted man with a price on his head, she will marry him. From this point on the story, the picture builds to a smashing climax, and by smashing we mean smashing. Here's that something different in screen entertainment you've been waiting for so long. CLAYBROOK SURE WILLS WILL WIN Chicago, Ill., Sept. 3—(A. N. P.)—John C. Claybrook, one of the richest Negroes in Arkansas, one who had a town named after him, dropped through town this week with a word on Harry Wills. Claybrook thinks Harry is going to knock the Argentinian floeey. He is emphatic in his denial that his confidence in Wills is based on the fact that Wills is a Negro, but avers that the entire matter is a business proposition with him, and that, after a visit to both camps, he can't see Luis. Mr. Claybrook drops a whispered word on that Bartley Madden affair. He doesn't say that Wills told him so, but he gives it as his honest opinion that Wills fought under instructions. In the first place, the Arkansas Croesus explains, Harry and Bartley are per- "TIGER LOVE" FIRPO PLANNING STYLEOFBATTLE TO GIVE WILLS Saratoga Springs, N. Y., Sept. 4 — (P. N. S.)—Luis A. Firpo, the wild bull of the Pampas, is said to be utilizing considerable of his leisure moments these days studying round by round, press reports of the fights in which Harry Wills, his forthcoming opponent, has participated in during the past four years. It is said that Firpo commits to memory one round of a Wills' fight, then clears the sitting room in his cottage and boxes Wills' shadow. It is said that sometimes he calls in Big Bill Tate, his sparring partner, to prompt him to he swings punches at the Bronze Panther's shadow. As winter lingers in the lap of spring, So does summer linger in the lap of fall; But soon we'll be sniffing the odor of burning leaves And missing the sweet notes of the summer bird's call. The seasons are ever swiftly passing, With gallant banners streaming every where; The smoke and din of summer time sports, Are dying in the distant air. Soon, we'll hear no more, "Striker's out!" And the sharp crack of a fence clearing homer; There'll be no more spiked shoes on the cinder track, Because fall is majestically rounding the corner. Soon, the pill swatters will have hung up their togs, And there'll be no more heating out buns; Instead of having that to thrill us, We'll have the sturdy safety running up distant punts. The fall actors are about to take to the fields. To receive their share of deafening encores; As the little fellow behind the line, Fall actors, ninety four. Calls sixteen—twenty-two—ninety-four. sonal friends. In the second place, at the time of the fight, Firpo had not signed up and there would have been small chance of getting him to, if Harry had made mincement out of the tough Irishman. Take it for what it's worth. John C. Claybrook thinks it's worth all he can square. Johnson at ladega.

With Whon Hew Doubles. (Special to Norfolk Journal and Guide) Baltimore, Md., Sept. 1—Before an enthralled gallery at Druid Hill Park, Talley Holmes, veteran racqueter and four times holder of the national tennis championship, staged a gallant comeback and regained the title. Playing a remarkably steady game, he vanquished Ted Thompson, a fellow townman, in the final of the American Tennis Association tournament and clinched the B. M. Rhetta trophy and singles crown. The score was 6-4, 6-3, 2.6, 6-4. Holmes later teamed with Thompson and defeated A. Saitch and M. Smith of New York, in the final of the men's double play, 6-2, 6-4, 6-4. Champion Extended Champion Extended The new champion displayed a wonderful game in his match with Thompson, alternating drives and chops in bewildering fashion, coming to the net on every possible occasion and checking off his youthful opponent with sharply angled shots. Thompson was brilliant in defeat and forced Holmes to his limit. After losing the first two sets, Thompson came back with a rush to take the third set and to lead by four games to two in the fourth. From then on, however, Holmes' experience and court cunning stood in good stead and the new champion man off four straight games in masterful fashion. Dr. B. H. Rhetta and Miss Nellie Nicholson upheld local tennis prestige when they won the mixed doubles championship from Miss Bessie Channels and A, Hudlin of Chicago in straight sets, 7-5, 8-6. Chicagoan Triumphs Miss Channels gave a brilliant exhibition by defeating Miss Lula Ballard of Philadelphia in the women's singles, retaining her title easily, 6-2, 6-4. The junior title was removed to Chicago by R. Smith, who won from A. Wool- DEATH OF SUMMER WILLEY A. JOHNSON, JR. Johnson at Clark, Kindle at Talladega. In the C. I. A. A.

Comments On History Making Dear Editor, Our proud and noble ancestors, like every body else, are extremely desirous that we, the younger generation shall become makers of history. They are not content to see us readers only. They want to see us, (and it is right that they should) make a name for ourselves. They want to see us take up where they laid down, "carry on" where they could not finish, and dibble in that which they had better sense than to dibble into. I say our forefathers are right. We should, as offsprings make a name for oursures, even if we don't like it after we make it. Let us, I say, make our own history so nobody can read it but us. Now enthusiastic hearers, these are the things we ought to do: 1st. Produce a man to improve upon the work of Shakespeare so that we may have a better class of dramas. We need these to make the next generation study harder or they might not be as wise as they should. 2nd. Produce another Izaak Walton to catch all the fish that bridge of Washington by default. The summary. Finals Men's Singles: Tally Holmes, of Washington, defeated Ted Thompson, Washington, 6-4, 6-3, 2-6, 6-4. Women's Singles: Miss I. Channels, Chicago, defeated Miss I. Ballard, Philadelphia, 6-2, 6-4. Men's Doubles: Tally Holmes and Ted Thompson, Washington, defeated, Snitch and Smith, New York, 6-2, 6-4, 6-4. Women's Doubles: Misses Leonard and Channels, Chicago, defeated Miss Radilife and Mrs. Seams, Chicago, 4-6, 6-2, 6-0. Mixed Doubles: Dr. Rhetta and Miss Nicholson, Baltimore, defeated, Miss Channels and Hudlin, Chicago, 7-5, 8-6. Junior Singles: R. Smith, Chicago, won from A. Woolridge, Washington, by default.

I'm having a happy time in the wiles of North Carolina an what I mean 'tis some town an State. It was suggested to me by a bozo of a City Edytor A Writer to take a vacation. An he sez that I got a complex or something like that. He went on farther to say that I aint like most folks, an I knows that the same ways like he does, cause I am good an knows it. This edyter sez, that other folks work all the year an take they vacation in the summer time. They go way frum work an loaf on loafs all the time an when I goes to work I is vacationing. Well, that might be so an it might be not. Oaint saying that I'm working or not. I'm leaving that to my many friends an admirers to use them own discretion. Well, I'm down here in this land of cotton an sainshine an what I mean it's some burgh. These folks down heere don't know that—well I don't know what they don't know.

When a house catches fire, why he hafta go an get his fire cap, an what I mean, you gotta to pay him a dollar for putting the fire out an if you don't not do that, why he lets the house burn down to the bottom.

Now, in the post offices here, they got signs "IE YOU SPIT ON THE FLOOR AT HOME, SPIT ON THE FLOOR HERE, WE WANT YOU TO FEEL AT HOME." An they got another, "LADIES AND GENTS DONT THROW WASTE PAPER ON THE FLOOR AND OTHERS MUST NOT" an all such things like that. So you can see they are amateurs in the business. Aint none of these here towns here got street cars an some folks aint never hear talk bout one. An another thing, the folks here is so polite that a stranger gets the speakers cramps speaking to them. I know you folks hear bout writers cramp, which comes from writing.

S.): Because there was no technical evidence to hold him, Simon Whitfield, who was jailed here recently for the suspected poisoning of Joe Romie Joyner at LaGrange, has been released from custody. Weeks after the death of Joyner, the alleged victim, Whitfield was arrested. Then the authorities were confronted with securing technical chemical examination of the dead man's body.

P.): While searching for a fugitive prisoner, Sheriff Redding stumbled into a shack in the woods between Dennisville and Woodbine, in which lived a man and his wife, each about 70 years of age. They said they had not been to a seashore resort in 50 years, although they live within 10 miles of several. They did not know there was a prohibition law, were unfamiliar with the name of the president of the United States and had no idea who was Sheriff of Cape May county. The couple refused to give their names. It is believed that they live in this secluded fashion because of their dislike for the "jazz mania" of today. The children were half starved, having nothing to eat for two days, they told the officers. The mother had been belfast for six months and told officers that during the whole of her married life, she had received the attention of a phycicion only once. The children were scantily clad in ragged remnants of their father's clothes. Howard Uni- WASHINGTON, D. Founded by GENERAL O. O. HO- J. STANLEY DURKEE. A. M., Ph.D. EMMETT J. SCOTT. A. M., LL.D.

URGESPARK FOR RACE CHILDREN AT CHARLOTTE Commissioneer Believes It To Be A Crying Need of the City; Wants Site Purchased At Once. Charlotte, N. C., Sept. 5.—"A park for Negroes is one of the crying needs of Charlotte, that ought to immediately receive the sanction of municipal authorities, thinks E. L. Mason, chairman of the park and recreation. "A large area ought to be purchased in a thickly settled Negro district and be turned into a park. The park should be a part of other systems and be given supervision by the Park and recreation commission. A Negro attendant should be place d in direct charge of the place," Mr. Mason declared. DECLARES NEGRO PRESS ADVERTISING PAYS Chicago, Ill., Sept, 3—(A. N. P.) One of the most significant peaches, in view of the growing efficiency of the Negro press, made during the convention of the National Negro Business League in his city, was delivered by Homer Roberts, president of the Roberts Motor Company of Kansas City, Purpose Mr. Roberts, a highly successful young business man, witnessed that a great deal of his success had been directly traceable to the influence of Negro newspapers in his home city. He declared that the progress of the Negro press and of Negro business in general must be hand in hand, the man with something to sell finding it more and more to his advantage to reach his market thru the press medium Norfolk Journal and Guide Government Reports Situation Among Colored People Not Serious; Much Room For Improvement However. Baltimore, Md., Aug. 15,—According to occupant-owners and tenants of houses belonging to Negroes residential properties in Baltimore, ranging in estimated values of from $1,600 to $10,000, are typical examples of the major housing facilities available to Baltimore's 108,322 Negroes, who are being slowly augmented by migrant from the South. The houses as to which data were obtained were selected in a nondiscriminatory manner as to location, and from centers of the city in which there reside colored people representative of Baltimore's entire Negro population. In making this investigation the Department realized, of course, that small streets and alleys are still, unfortunately, the abiding places of large numbers of colored people of limited means, who are crowded into small dwellings. Yet with the exception of these small and limited localities, the prompt of housing congestion in Baltimore is not a serious one. Houses occupied by Negroes and located on such typical Baltimore streets as McCulloh, East Twenty-third, West Lanvale, Ashland Avenue, North Carrollton, North Carey, Jefferson, Myrtle Avenue, Division, Pennsylvania Avenue, Leadenhall, George, Argyle Avenue, Mosher, East Fayette, and North Caroline, were described by their occupantes, whose conclusions are summarized as follows: In the ratio of 9 to 11, the occupants of these properties had purchased the same, and, where necessary, improved the houses ml the sary, improved the houses by the installation of modern heating appliances, electric lights, hardwood floors, etc. Actual rentals of these properties, and estimated rentals submitted by owners, ranged from $16.00 to $80.00 per month. Intermediate rentals varied according to the size, space, and condition of the houses. A surprising condition brought to light by the investigation was the fact that in the ratio of 8 to 12, householders and their immediate families were the sole occupants of the home, and did not sublet any portion of the rented or owned property. In other cases, the number of rooms sublet ranged from one to three, and in one case four rooms of a six-room house, renting for $40.00 per month, were sublet to lodgers. The houses, the majority of which were two- or three-story brick dwellings, contained from 6 to 12 rooms, and, with but four exceptions, were well brightened by daylight. In a few cases, the occupants described the plumbing as being "poor" and "fair," but in the majority of cases it was said to be "good." Toilet facilities and sewerage fell slightly below the very favorable testimony as to lighting and plumbing; but the general description was "good," and, in several cases, "splendid." In comparing the construction and rental prices of the houses studied with similarly located houses, occupied by white householders, two informants stated that Negro tenants, as a rule, paid a higher price for power shelter and facilities that did white tenants. The data compiled sustain the slightly-higher price; but, as to general construction and specifications, it is indicated that there is virtually no difference between the facilities available to the two classes of occupants. In location, it was observed that highly-desirable residential sections and blocks, recently opened to Negro residents, commanded higher sale and rental prices than sections which have been open to Negro householders, a situation which is comparable to that of other large cities in which the Negro population is rapidly increasing. In its entirety, the housing situation among the colored people of Baltimore, Md., seems to bear no symptoms of unusual needs, or indicate any crisis of shortage such as has appeared in several other cities. A normal housing adjustment, in keeping with the needs of the city's Negro populace, is apparently ever applicable to each individual case, as the necessity arises. NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 1924 President Wood Issues Call For Unincorporated Baptists to Meet in Chicago --- Danville, Ky.,—Like the Isrealites of old we stand at the Red Sea, ready to cross over. They had kept the Passover, they had eaten the roasted lamb with bitter herbs, their staff in their hands and their sandals on their feet. They had borrowed the Egyptians' silver and under the leadership of Moses and Aaron they had come down to the sea, where they stand with mountains lifting their jagged peaks to the sky, the hosts of Pharaoh pursues after them and the frightening waves of the sea roils before; when Jehovah commands Moses: "Speak to the children that they re forward." Negro Baptists of America and the Isles of the Sea have flung out their banner. They have pronounced the faith, they have constructed their program, they have made their pledges, the die is cast. Militant Baptists in Chicago have prepared their tables and flung wide their doors. Preachers, teachers, men of the professions, business men, backed up by a constituency of 200,000, guarantee you the grandest reception ever given a religious gathering in the country. Like Israel we stand at the Red Sea; and the command of the Lord and Master is "Go Forward," and in His name we call upon Baptist leaders in all parts of this country to go forward through the sea of doubt, and indifference, and listlessness, and procrastination and fear, into the promised land of good fellowship, and brotherly love, and cooperation, and achievements, and joy. If we have faith to obey heaven's marching orders, the sea will divide and we shall go across dry shod into the promised land of victory and in Chicago, the mistress of the West, we shall pile up a heap of stones which for all time to come will tell to succeeding generations how Baptist heroes and heroines wrought mightily and prevailed in 1924. We are urging every Baptist Drives Auto In Window Columbus, Ohio, Sept. 3.—(P. N. S.): Joseph Nelson, a 14-year old boy, is being held by juvenile court authorities as the result of a wild ride, Wednesday noon, in an automobile truck. The ride ended when Nelson streak a woman knocking her down and then crashed over the curb into a large plate glass window of a barber shop. According to the police Nelson was driving south in Parsons avenue and ran into Mrs. James E. Albright, who escaped with minor injuries. The damage done to the window is estimated at $75. Arrest Professional Prayer Maker New York City, Sept. 3.—(A. N. P.): Sam Gilden, 49 years old, was before Magistrate Miller on a disorderly conduct charge "What did he do," asked Magistrate Miller of Mortimer Gold, the complainant. "Prayed in a cemetery,' replied Gold. "What did he pray for?" asked the court. "For money, your honor," answered the complainant. Gold said he is the manager of a cemetery, and Gilden was soliciting jobs at praying over graves and found a couple of customers. It is against the law to pray in a graveyard without license, it was explained. Magistrate Miller adjourned the case. Raleigh, N. C.—Prof. C. H. Boyer, J. L. Levister and W. H.

This may be done at any time as the enrollment blanks are now ready. We call upon every Baptist and friend of our work in the country who have pledged to Dr. David E. Oyer, or to other representatives of any phase of our work to come prepared to pay these pledges in full. We also call upon our boards to come prepared to make to this convention a business report of the year's work. The Baptists who come to Chicago will want to know what their servants have done in kingdom building. No organization can hope to enjoy the confidence and favorable consideration of thinking people, who have no bonified constituency. We must point to our enrollment as evidence of our power and influence as an organization. What shall we do in Chicago? Shall we pay the debt on the Seminary property? Shall we sustain the foreign mission work in Africa? Shall we do real home mission work and support our church extension movement? Shall we make all phases of the convention work a reality? Shall we simply bring money enough to Chicago to pay running expenses, or like loyal soldiers of Jesus Christ, put down finances sufficient to sustain the convention's activities? No less than sixty thousand dollars can satisfy the imperative demands of our convention this year. We call upon Baptists, in harmony with our program, throughout the country to rally to our standard, and disappoint the prophesies of our foes and shame the slackers in our ranks. We beg you to take this cause to the Lord. Seek the guidance of the Holy Spirit; follow the teachings of God's word; and lay your all on the altar to be used in His service. Yours in His name, J. EDMUND WOOD President. Find Pigs In Coffin Philadelphia, Pa., Sept. 3.—(A. N. P.): Among the graves of some who fought in the Revolutionary War were recently found four coffins in which rested the carcasses of hogs in the cemetery of St. John's English Lutheran Church, Race street near Sixth.

San Juan, Porto Rico, Sept. 2. Supreme Justice Wolfe last week handd down an alternate writ to the executive secretary of Porto Rico, holding that the new election law, passed last June, is unconstitutional and ordering him to proceed under the former statute. Justice Wolfe attacked the provision of the new law which required 25,000 of the signatures or ten per cent of the entire electorate to get nominees of a new party on the ballot by petitions. The old law required not more than 4,000. In his opinion the Justice stated that the new law deprived a considerable number of the electors of the right of suffrage. The justice declared: "I doubt if some of the forerunners of the present Republican party in the United States should ever have mustered in the various states ten per cent of the total vote."

P.)—Joseph King, 60 years old, perished in an attempt to rescue three horses from the stable of the scrap iron plant of Jacob Kait at Tulip and Tioga streets. King had worked there for many years and lived on the second floor of the frame structure. Shortly after 9 o'clock at night he was awakened by smoke. He rushed to the street and sent in an alarm, returning immediately to rescue the horses he had tended daily. He got one of the frightened animals out and the firemen had not yet arrived. King started in after his three other dumb friends and never came out alive. Whether it was the frenzy of the beasts or the flames and smoke that prevented him from realizing the fruits of his heroism is not known. in Other Lands INDICT POLICE FOR SHOOTING YOUNG MAN Officers of Florida City To Answer Manslaughter Charges For First Time In Several Years. Jacksonville, Fla., Sept3—(A.N. P.)—For the first time in a number of years two police, white have been indicted and charged with manslaughter for the killing of a youth, Benjamin Washington. The policemen, R. L. Woods, and J. S. Moeds, were indicted last Thursday. Washington made his living peddling ice. He was shot down by the officers in front of his home after they had arrested him, and had allowed him to drive there to put up his team. Colored people were driven away from the scene, and the officers declared they shot in self-defense. Colored witnesses declared that the youth did not offer any resistance to the officers and that the knife was placed under the body after the killing. The indictment is the result of the fight of the Florida Sentinel, Negro paper here, for the conviction of policemen who shoot promiscuously at persons. In an editorial the week of the killing, "Barbarism" the Sentinel denounced the crime. The deitorial which was strong for a race paper in the South named the participants and caused much comment among white and colored at the time. The policemen have been relieved of duty and are out on bond awaiting trial. AX USED IN AFFRAY Scotland Neck, N. C., SSept. 2. According to witnesses and participants in the affair between Chas.

Rather than have any trouble, so they said, they drove off. As Henderson and James Evans were going to work, according to their story, Pitt again accused them and had much to say, accused them of running from him, and attacking Chas. Henderson with an ax, missing several blows but finally landing a gash in Henderson's back, from which he was bleeding freely when he came in to look for the doctor.

HEROIN MEDICINE CO Atlanta, Georgia COLORFUL NEWS MOVIES By The CAMERAMAN (PRESTON NEWS SERVICE) 1. Gloom Hits West Indies. 2. Liberia Bars Garvey Followers. 3. The Leopard's Spots—The Lion's Tail. Travelers returning from the British West Indies bring back tales of a aloom which has taken the joy out of the lives of the native West Indians of British declensions; and follow-up reports in this country corroborate the story of unemployment over there and shattered hopes for those who expected to embark for this part of the world. The unemployment situation which caught seemed to improve, gave life to expected exodus to the United States and other attractive countries, but the quota system, which places the British West Indian colonies within the allowances for Great Britain, has made it impossible to determine, as yet, just what proportion of the British quota of 34,000 for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1925, will be allocated to the British West Indian colonies. To offset this difficulty, many of the natives prepared to depart for South America and Cuba, but poor steamship facilities have made it beyond belief to hope that the 3,500 natives, who desire to quit the West Indies during the present year, will be able to emigrate. This condition, coupled with the normal unemployment situation, foretells a season of idleness, low wages, and inconvenience, if not suffering, for many hundreds of the sturdy West Indians, who are thoroughly able, under ordinary circumstances, to hold their own in any kind of company. Notwithstanding local prejudices, which ought to be rubbed out, West Indians have contributed must to this country's advancement, and it is to be hoped that the quota system may soon determine West Indian eligibles to citizenship in the United States in order that desirable may be free to jin their fellow countrymen here and give helpful assistance to the universal problem confronting the dark people of the world. Dr. Ernest Lyon, Liberian Counsel-General at Baltimore, is quoted a saying that "no person or persons leaving the United States under the auspices of the Garvey movement, will be allowed to land in the Republic of Liberia," and that "all Liebrian consuls in the United States are instructed and directed to not to vise the passports of any persons leaving the United States for Liberia under the direction of that Garvey movement." This decision, it is reported, has been made to prevent the Garvey expedition from making an attempt to supplant the constitutional regime of Pres- Attend Notification Ceremonies Washington, D.

A. ident King, of Liberia, and, if it is enforced, bespeaks an era of nonuse for the Fordson tractors, agricultural implements, water filtration plant and sawmill now enroute to Liberia for the 300 men and women who, it is said, would make up the expedition scheduled to sail in October, 1924, under the supervision of the interpid Marcus Garvey, who is again in the toils of the law for an alleged misrepresentation of his income. Thus a new angle of the so-called back-to-Africa movement has unveiled itself; and it comes from an unexpected source. Everybody was cut and dried for difficulties which might arise from European nations which have rich holdings in the dark continent, and nearly all of us have been wondering just how Africa could be redeemed within the law of man and of money. But no one dreamed that little Liberia, he proposed prospective home for freed Negro slaves, back in the days of President Monroes, would hoist the red hatern which will apparently stand-off a Garvey reedemption. Here it is, though, and with it comes another reaction which causes us to feel as we've always felt—that there's something radically wrong with the back-to-Africa project. The leopard cannot change his spots, but the lion can lash his tail; and, according to quotations from the literary market, Rev. Thomas Dixon, author of "The Leopard's Spots," and "The Klansman," shares this belief along with us; for the learned writer and erstwhile preacher, it is said, recently condemned the present-day Klan, saying: "I am opposed to the present-day Ku-Klux Klan because I believe a menace to American democracy. The disguise is a dangerous weapon in the hands of many irresponsible and ESTHER BIGEOU World's greatest singer and ac- tivity Hus and commanded His Ja Beauty Preparations. They are the best in the world. SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 1924 Territory reckless people and a lawless phase of an organization which politically might do a whole lot of good." If this man of God is correctly quoted, he fears a lashing of the lion's tail, and, like the zealous Samaritan who took a baby lion and reared it, as a pet, only to become its victim after it became full-sized, Rev. Dixon has become surcharged with fear, lest his literary play creature should become too much for a stomach full for him. Stranger things than this have happened, and Rev. Dixon is to be congratulated upon his new realization. It is not too late for him to turn his pen to a more useful service than that to which he has applied it in the past. With anthropologists admitting the identity of white Indians, it may be that extended research might bring white Africans to light; or, who knows but that facts might be evolved to prove the existence of black Canensians or brown "Nordics" a la Klan. The weaving threads of human history are making many a scientist looney with new theories. But the theory of God and of Adam and Eve seems to be holding its own. And artful writers like Rev. Dixon, who have forsaken their professions to mould an opinion adverse to that moulded by "christ" in his sermon on the "Mount" have ample time to retrace their steps and contribute more to the theory of the God of Love and Justice, rather than the idols of racial hatred and supremacy. $16aDavandFreeAuto Write now for a preparation in cash payments and give you an account card to deposit them custodially or store time or full time.
